SYDNEY, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Activeport Group Ltd (ASX:ATV) has successfully closed its renounceable rights issue, raising approximately $3.1 million before costs. With a possible $1.5M offered into the placement by fund manager MWP Partners and its associates in Hong Kong, the total of up to $4.6M is close to the maximum possible under the offer of $5.3M.
This significant new capital inflow paves the way for Activeport to rapidly expand sales capacity to generate new revenue from its network orchestration software. Notably Activeport Company Directors and management demonstrated confidence by fully subscribing to their entitlements, underscoring their commitment to Activeport's long term vision.
Activeport Chairman and CEO Peter Christie "We would like to extend our gratitude to existing shareholders for their participation, and warmly welcome our new investors. This is an exciting time in Activeport's growth, and we look forward to realising our strategic goals with their support."
Activeport recently launched its SaaS business in Australia in conjunction with FibreconX. The combination of Activeport's software and the FibreconX network offers new connectivity solutions for consumers of data centre capacity in Australia, a market that is booming from the AI revolution. Internationally, Activeport is deploying its software to major telecommunications carriers, data centre operators and sub-sea fibre owners that are also growing exponentially with the demand generated from AI.
The funds raised in this Rights issue will be strategically allocated to scale Activeport's operational capabilities to take advantage of the unprecedented growth in demand for its network orchestration software across the data centre and telecommunications industries.
New securities will be issued on November 13th, 2024, with the Directors holding the flexibility to place any shortfall within three months.
