Capital Consolidation Timetable
Perth, Oct 27, 2014 AEST (ABN Newswire) - As proposed in resolution 4 of the Metals X Limited's (
ASX:MLX) (MTXXY:OTCMKTS) forthcoming Annual General Meeting, to be held on 26 November 2014, the Company wishes to advise security holders of the details and proposed timetable in relation to the consolidation of capital.
Reason for the Consolidation
Metals X has a large number of shares on issue due to historical equity-based capital raisings and corporate transactions. The number of shares is disproportionate to Metals X's peers, so the Company proposes to reduce this number by way of a share consolidation.
Effect of the Consolidation
If the proposed share consolidation is approved by shareholders, the number of Metals X shares on issue will be reduced from approximately 1.66 billion to approximately 414 million. As the consolidation applies equally to all of the Company's shareholders, individual shareholdings will be reduced in the same ratio as the total number of the Company's shares (subject only to the rounding of fractions). It follows that the consolidation will have no material effect on the percentage interest of each individual shareholder in the Company.
