Intention to adjourn the Special Meeting, Importance of Vote and Results of Open Offer
tinyBuild (AIM:TBLD), a premium video games publisher and developer with global operations, is providing an update on the proposed Fundraise announced on 21 December 2023 and the Circular to Stockholders posted on 22 December 2023 convening the Special Meeting.
Intention to adjourn the Special Meeting
The Company has been notified that certain significant Stockholders were unable to cast their votes in support of both Resolutions ahead of the deadline due to the various public holidays over the Special Meeting notice period and other administrative vote requirements. In order to enable these significant Stockholders to vote, the Directors believe the best course of action is to adjourn the Special Meeting later today.
The Company therefore announces that its Special Meeting due to be held later today is expected to be adjourned to 26 January 2024 (the "Adjourned Meeting") with further details to be released later today. Valid proxy votes submitted in respect of the Special Meeting will be counted at the Adjourned Meeting. The Company has received more than 99% of the votes cast to date in favour of both the Resolutions and therefore the Board is confident that the Resolutions will be passed at the Adjourned Meeting.
Importance of the Vote
The Company reiterates that if the Resolutions are not passed at the Special Meeting or any Adjourned Meeting, the Fundraise will not take place and the proceeds of the Fundraise will not be received by the Company.
Failure to conclude the Fundraise by the end of January 2024 will materially compromise the Group's ability to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. In the unlikely event the Resolutions are not passed at the Adjourned Meeting, the CEO has indicated he is willing to support the Company. Failure to secure alternative forms of finance on commercially acceptable terms or at all could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial condition, prospects, capital resources, cash flows, share price, liquidity, results and/or future operations.
Results of Open Offer
The Company announces the closing of the Open Offer, and that it has received valid applications, including those received under the Excess Application Facility, in respect of a total of 4,844,179 new Shares, totalling £242,208.95. Qualifying Shareholders who have validly applied for Open Offer Shares pursuant to their Basic and Excess Shares Entitlement, will receive their application in full assuming the Resolutions are passed at the Special Meeting.
Further information on the Fundraise and voting at the Special Meeting can be found on the Company's website at: https://www.tinybuildinvestors.com/documents-and-presentations.
Stockholders should direct any questions on how to submit their votes to their financial adviser, broker or to the Company's registrar Link Group on (+44) 0371 664 0391 or via email at shareholderenquiries@linkgroup.co.uk.
Capitalised terms used, but not otherwise defined in this announcement are as defined in the Circular published on 22 December 2023.
