MILESTONE GROUP PLC
("Milestone" or the "Company")
Update on October Placing
On 20 October 2016, the Company announced that it had placed 92,333,332
shares at a price of 1.5p per share, raising in total GBP1,385,000 of
gross proceeds. These shares were admitted to trading on AIM on 31
October 2016.
On 9 November 2016:
-- the Company announced that GBP1,250,000 of the gross proceeds remained
outstanding from a placee sourced by the Company (the "Company Placee");
and
-- the Company's broker was in receipt of the GBP135,000 balance of the
gross proceeds in relation to the remaining placees (the "Broker
Placees").
Since the 9 November 2016 announcement, the Company's broker, at their
request and with approval from the Company, returned the sum of
GBP135,000 to the Broker Placees. The Company and the Company's broker
have been in communication with the Broker Placees regarding the
GBP135,000 and discussions are ongoing.
Nevertheless, the Company has received a legal opinion that the
92,333,332 October 2016 placing shares were validly allotted and issued.
The Company intends to pursue the Company Placee for the outstanding
proceeds.
The Company is seeking to undertake a new placing (the "New Placing")
which, as a result of the share price movement since the 20 October
2016, is likely to be at a price below 1.5p per share. It is intended
that the Broker Placees will be offered the opportunity to participate
in the New Placing on revised terms.
The Company anticipates making a further announcement in relation to the
New Placing shortly, however there can be no certainty that the New
Placing will occur or that other forms of financing will be available to
the Company.
The Company has limited cash resources and continues to manage its
working capital position carefully.
The issued share capital of the Company comprises 885,734,741 ordinary
shares.
