Exercise of Warrants and Issue of Equity

Armadale Capital plc (LON: ACP), the AIM quoted investment group focused on natural resource projects in Africa, announces that it has received five warrant exercise notices over an aggregate amount of 2,656,184 ordinary shares at a price of 2.2p per share in the capital of the Company ('Ordinary Shares') providing the Company with proceeds of £58,436.04.

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange to admit the 2,656,184 new Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM. Admission of the new Ordinary Shares is expected to occur on 4 June 2020 ('Admission'). The new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares.

The Company had previously announced on 26 May 2020 an updated total issued share capital of 442,597,529 Ordinary Shares, but now corrects this figure to 442,597,526 Ordinary Shares. Therefore, following Admission of the new Ordinary Shares, the issued share capital of the Company will be 445,253,710 Ordinary Shares and this figure may be used by shareholders as a denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest, the Company, under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules published by the UK Financial Conduct Authority. There are no Ordinary Shares held in Treasury and each Ordinary Share entitles the holder to a single vote at general meetings of the Company. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company following Admission will be 445,253,710.

The information communicated in this announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014.
