Pineapple Power Corporation PLC
Completion of £350,000 Placing at 3p per share
Pineapple Power Corporation PLC ("PNPL" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that the fundraising announced on 16 March 2023 has completed, and that 11,666,666 new ordinary shares have been admitted to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market.
Clive de Larrabeiti, Corporate Finance Advisor to Pineapple stated - "We are very pleased to report the successful closing and admission of the newly issued shares for trading. The Company is grateful for the continuing support of its existing and new shareholders and the Directors who subscribed for shares in the issue. The Company particularly wishes to thank its Corporate Brokers - Peterhouse Capital and Axis Capital - for their participation in and organisation of the placing. This placing significantly strengthens the Company's balance sheet and provides additional financial resources to pursue a potential RTO transaction. This, together with the recent addition of Graham Cooley as a strategic Corporate and M & A Advisor to the Company, which dramatically extends our reach in the universe of renewable energy, places us in a very good position to advance our business plans. We now look forward, despite the headwinds which currently exist in the financial markets worldwide, to an interesting and hopefully exciting year ahead."
