Speculation regarding a potential fundraise
Omega (AIM: ODX), the specialist medical diagnostics company focused on industry-leading Global Health (CD4 and COVID-19) and Health and Nutrition products, notes the recent online speculation and confirms that it is in discussions with certain investors and shareholders regarding a potential equity fundraising.
Market conditions remain challenging and accordingly any issue of equity would be at a discount to the current share price. Any fundraise would include an open offer to accommodate retail investors.
As per the announcement of 19 January, the Company has significant cash resources. Accordingly, there is no immediate need to raise additional capital and the Company may choose not to proceed with a fundraising until such time as conditions are more favourable.
A further announcement will be made in due course as necessary.
