Gaming Realms plc
(the "Company" or the "Group")
Proposed subscription to raise £2.2 million
Gaming Realms, the creator and developer of interactive next generation online gaming products, is pleased to announce that it has conditionally raised approximately £2.2 million, before expenses, through a proposed subscription of 6,666,667 new ordinary shares of 10 pence each ("Subscription Shares") at a price of 33 pence per share (the "Subscription Price") ("the Subscription"). The proceeds of the Subscription will be used to support the ongoing development and expansion of the business. In addition, Gaming Realms will use part of the proceeds to pay £825,000 for the deferred consideration for the acquisition of QuickThink Media Limited in lieu of the 3,571,429 ordinary shares payable.
The Subscription is conditional, inter alia, on Admission becoming effective.
Application for Admission of the Subscription Shares will be made to AIM and it is expected that Admission will become effective on or around 10 December 2014 and that dealings in the Subscription Shares will commence at that time.
The Subscription Shares will be issued credited as fully paid and will rank in full for all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after Admission, and will otherwise rank on Admission pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares. The Subscription Shares are not, and will not, be offered or sold in any jurisdiction where it would be unlawful to do so.
Total Voting Rights
Following completion of the Subscription, Gaming Realms' total shares in issue will be 193,958,368 ordinary shares of 10 pence each. Gaming Realms holds no ordinary shares in Treasury. The above figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, Gaming Realms under the AIM Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
