Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

An announcement from Manhattan Corporation ( (AU:MHC) ) is now available.

Manhattan Gold Corporation has disclosed an inadvertent breach of ASX Listing Rule 10.11 after three adult sons of its non-executive chairman were mistakenly allocated 283,333 shares in the first tranche of a recent A$3 million placement. The company emphasised that the small, related-party allocation did not affect other subscriptions, the placement outcome, or other shareholders’ interests.

In consultation with the ASX, Manhattan will sell the affected shares on market to unrelated investors, with any profit to be donated to a charity selected by the company. The board has apologised for the oversight and has begun reviewing and strengthening internal processes, policies, and controls to prevent future non-compliance in related-party share issues.
