TwentyFour Select Monthly Income Fund Limited Announces Equity Raise

Why we think this is neutral

The equity raise by TwentyFour Select Monthly Income Fund Limited is a relatively small one, with the new shares issued at a modest 0.31% discount to the previous closing price. This suggests reasonable demand for the company's shares and that the raise is not a last resort funding measure. However, any equity raise, even at a small discount, can be seen as a negative signal by the market, and there is a small dilutive impact on existing shareholders. Overall, the impact of this raise is neutral, as the positives and negatives appear to balance out.

Key Points

  • TwentyFour Select Monthly Income Fund Limited has issued 2,000,000 new ordinary shares
  • The new shares were priced at 86.13 pence per share, a 0.31% discount to the previous closing price
  • The raise generated £1,722,600.00 (before costs and expenses)
  • The purpose of the raise is to satisfy market demand and raise money for investment
