Pursuant to the receipt of conversion notices from holders of 31.24-million warrants, the company issued 31.24-million shares at a price of 0.85p a share, to raise £265 576.

The company raised a further £543 000 through a private placement of 43.44-million shares at 1.25p a share to directors’ families and investors in Ireland.
