The software-as-a-service company secured binding commitments from exisiting institutional investors to raise $600,000 via a share and option placement and finalised $200,000 worth of director’s investments.
Under the placement, 5,454,546 new fully paid ordinary APV shares were offered to institutional investors at 11 cents each with one unlisted option attached for every two placement shares.
