An announcement from Chariot Oil & Gas ( (GB:CHAR) ) is now available.

Chariot Limited has raised about US$2.9 million through an open offer after receiving valid acceptances for roughly 69% of the available shares from qualifying shareholders. The offer, which also includes warrants exercisable until 2029, is conditional on shareholder approval and strengthens the company’s capital base as it builds exposure to a producing offshore Angolan asset.

Participation by CEO Adonis Pouroulis and other directors will modestly increase board ownership, aligning management more closely with investors as Chariot accelerates its upstream strategy. Management says the Angolan transaction marks a material step change for the group, promising future cash flow and growth that could enhance its positioning in the African energy market alongside its existing oil, gas and renewable power activities.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:CHAR) stock is a Hold with a £1.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Chariot Oil & Gas stock, see the GB:CHAR Stock Forecast page.
