Update on offer for subscription
The Board of Amati AIM VCT plc (the "Company") announced on 28 July 2021 that the Company had published a prospectus (the "Prospectus") in connection with proposals to raise up to £40,000,000 (with an over-allotment facility to raise up to a further £25,000,000), by way of an offer for subscription of new ordinary shares (the "Offer"). Full details of the Offer are contained in the Prospectus.
The Company announced on 4 August 2021 that £40,000,000 had been raised under the Offer and that the Board had decided not to utilise the over-allotment facility at that time. However, the Company has continued to identify attractive investment opportunities and, having considered the current rate of investment activity, the Board is pleased to announce that it intends to utilise the over-allotment facility and to re-open the Offer in February 2022, subject to market conditions.
The Company will make a further announcement in relation to the re-opening of the Offer in due course.
The Prospectus is available at www.amatiglobal.com and https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism . For further information, please contact the investor line at Amati Global Investors on 0131 503 9115 or by email at info@amatiglobal.com .
