Congratulations to Spartan Resources Ltd (ASX:SPR) on their fully underwritten A$80m Equity Raising. The Equity Raising was conducted at an offer price of A$0.58 per share, representing a discount of 11.5% on the last trading price of A$0.655. The Equity Raising comprised of a A$47m Placement and a A$33m Entitlement Offer.

Proceeds from the raise (alongside the Company’s existing cash balance) will be allocated towards funding an underground exploration decline to facilitate drill-out of Never Never, Pepper and Four Pillars, ongoing surface drilling, development studies and regional exploration. Spartan Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Simon Lawson, commented: “This is a landmark capital raising for Spartan which puts the Company in an exceptional position to deliver on the huge potential of the Never Never discovery and our other recent exploration successes at Dalgaranga.” Sternship Advisers is pleased to have acted as Joint Lead Manager on the Equity Raising alongside Canaccord Genuity and Euroz Hartleys.

Congratulations to Perseus Mining Limited on announcing its intention to make an off-market takeover bid for OreCorp Limited. Perseus is offering cash consideration of A$0.55 per OreCorp Share that it does not already own. This Offer is valued at a 4.0% premium to the currently implied takeover offer made by Silvercorp Metals. The conditions of the Offer are materially the same as those of the Silvercorp Takeover, including being conditional on acquiring 50.1% of OreCorp ordinary shares. Perseus expects to provide a Bidder’s Statement to OreCorp shareholders before the end of January 2024. Perseus Executive Chairman and CEO, Jeff Quartermaine said: “The acquisition of OreCorp’s shares aligns with Perseus’s growth strategy of building an asset portfolio comprised of geopolitically diverse, high-quality gold assets located on the African continent. At the same time, this Offer is demonstrably superior to the Silvercorp Takeover in terms of price, based on recent Silvercorp trading, and in terms of consideration certainty, being an all cash. In other words, it would ensure that OreCorp’s shareholders receive full value and certainty for their shares in OreCorp.” OreCorp owns 84% of the Nyanzaga Gold Project in northwest Tanzania, which contains over 3 million ounces of gold. The Government of Tanzania owns a 16% free carried interest. Sternship is pleased to be acting as financial adviser to Perseus, alongside Euroz Hartleys Limited. Corrs Chambers Westgarth acted as legal adviser to Perseus.
