Gfinity PLC (LON:GFIN) has confirmed it is working on a £6.7mln fundraising through the placing of new shares.
The e-sports entertainment group said in a statement on Tuesday that it notes recent press speculation regarding a proposed placing of new shares.
“The company is currently working on completing a placing of new shares at 12p per share to raise approximately £6.7mln,” it said.
“There can be no certainty that such fundraising will be concluded nor as to the timing or terms of such, but a further announcement will be made as required as soon as possible.”
