Kendrick Resources PLC ( (GB:KEN) ) just unveiled an update.
Kendrick Resources has issued 17,531,200 new ordinary shares to settle £350,624 of accrued fees owed to directors, a related party and consultants, opting to convert the liabilities at 2.0 pence per share, a 100% premium to the relevant quarterly VWAP of about 1.0 pence. The move, which lifts the company’s issued share capital to 334,329,352 shares and gives directors and related parties 4.3% of the enlarged equity from this issuance, reduces cash outflows while modestly diluting existing shareholders and aligns key management and advisers more closely with equity performance.
Application has been made for the new shares to be admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s main market, with dealings expected to begin on or around 4 March 2026. Following admission, the increased share count will serve as the new reference point for investors assessing disclosure thresholds under the UK’s transparency rules, while detailed transaction notifications confirm that senior executives, including Chairman Colin Bird, have converted substantial fee balances into stock outside a trading venue.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:KEN) stock is a Hold with a £0.98 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Kendrick Resources PLC stock, see the GB:KEN Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:KEN Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:KEN is a Neutral.
The score is held down primarily by weak financial performance (no revenue, ongoing losses, negative cash flow, and a material 2024 decline in equity/assets). Technicals provide some offset due to strong upward trend vs moving averages and positive MACD, but overbought momentum indicators increase near-term risk. Valuation is also constrained by negative earnings and no dividend yield support.
