Speculation regarding a potential fundraise

 

Omega (AIM: ODX), the specialist medical diagnostics company focused on industry-leading Global Health (CD4 and COVID-19) and Health and Nutrition products , notes the recent online speculation and confirms that it is in discussions with certain investors and shareholders regarding a potential equity fundraising.

 

Market conditions remain challenging and accordingly any issue of equity would be at a discount to the current share price.  Any fundraise would include an open offer to accommodate retail investors.

 

As per the announcement of 19 January, the Company has significant cash resources . Accordingly, there is no immediate need to raise additional capital and the Company may choose not to proceed with a fundraising until such time as conditions are more favourable.

 

A further announcement will be made in due course as necessary.
