KMD Brands Doubles Share Base in Major Equity Raising

KMD Brands Limited ( (AU:KMD) ) has provided an update.

KMD Brands Limited has significantly expanded its equity base with the issue of 735,914,649 fully paid ordinary shares at NZ$0.06 each, more than doubling its total shares on issue to 1,447,582,133. The new stock was issued for cash under an underwritten placement and the institutional component of an accelerated renounceable entitlement offer, both announced on 31 March 2026 and authorised by the board.

The placement and institutional entitlement offer were structured to favour existing institutional shareholders, with KMD using best efforts to allocate on a pro rata basis to eligible investors who sought at least their entitlement. Allocation decisions also prioritised long-term institutional backers and those showing strong engagement with the offer, highlighting the company’s focus on consolidating a supportive shareholder base as it recapitalises through this large-scale equity raising.
