Wools of New Zealand Position
to Date
Following the
announcement to extend the Wools of New Zealand Prospectus
on Friday
14 December the directors wish to provide the
outcome of the Wools of New Zealand capital raise so
far.
As of today, $4.1 million has been raised from 552 growers representing approximately 12 million kilograms of annual wool production. The objectives of the directors remains to raise $10 million of capital and to have shareholders who annually produce 20 million kg of wool or more. Given the number of growers who have indicated that they are still to subscribe for shares in Wools of New Zealand, directors are confident that with that support from growers the above objectives will be met.
We urge growers to consider this opportunity seriously and apply for shares as soon as possible as the directors have the discretion to close the subscription list at any point over the minimum capital requirement of $5 million.
The support of growers who have already applied for shares is appreciated. This demonstrates their recognition that by owning Wools of New Zealand and investing beyond the farm gate they will strengthen their long term profitability.
