Eagers Automotive Limited ( (AU:APE) ) has provided an update.
Eagers Automotive Limited has notified the market of the issue of 182,381 new ordinary fully paid shares following the conversion of previously unquoted options or other convertible securities.

While the volume of securities issued is relatively small in the context of Eagers Automotive’s overall capital structure, the move underscores the company’s use of equity instruments to support its strategic and operational objectives within the competitive automotive retail sector.
