KNT Holdings Limited ( (HK:1025) ) just unveiled an announcement.

KNT Holdings Limited has completed a fully subscribed rights issue on the basis of one rights share for every existing share, after placing all 143,961,099 unsubscribed rights shares at HK$0.20 each through independent placees. The transaction raised gross proceeds of about HK$40.4 million, with net proceeds of roughly HK$38 million earmarked mainly for debt and payables repayment and the remainder for general working capital, while significantly diluting existing holdings and increasing the free float without creating any new substantial shareholder.

Valid acceptances covered only about 28.8% of the offered rights shares, but the subsequent placing of the balance ensured that all 202,183,720 rights shares were issued, doubling the company’s share capital to 404,367,440 shares. Following the rights issue, public shareholders now hold about 61.48% and independent placees 35.60% of the enlarged capital, reducing the percentage interests of pre‑existing major shareholders while broadening the company’s investor base and reinforcing its capital structure.
