("Andrada" or the "Company")
Andrada Mining Limited (AIM: ATM, OTCQB: ATMTF), a tin producer with a portfolio of critical minerals mining and exploration assets in Namibia, has successfully completed a private placement with strategic investors. The Company has raised USD11 million (£8.1 million) * before expenses through a placing (the "Fundraising") of 226,337,448 ordinary shares (the new "Fundraising Shares") in the Company at a price of 3.6 pence per share (the "Issue Price"). Zeus Capital Limited ("Zeus") and H&P Advisory Limited ("Hannam") were joint-bookrunners (the "Joint Bookrunners") for the Fundraising.
"The completion of this placement with some key strategic investors, comes at a pivotal juncture for Andrada. The funding allows the Company to scale up operations and advance various growth initiatives, whilst deriving maximum benefit from the high commodity price environment. Importantly, this fundraise completes the current equity financial requirements for the Group. This funding, along with current tin prices and production provides the pathway for the Company to complete its expansion programme at Uis, with the exploration programmes at Lithium Ridge and Brandberg West already funded by strategic partners SQM and BWCAM."
The financing comes at a well-timed inflection point for the Company. The goal is to rapidly scale production capacity by enhancing exposure to strong critical minerals prices, strengthening institutional backing, and accelerating cash flow. Specifically, the proceeds of the fundraise will be used to accelerate production growth at the Uis operation by funding key operational upgrades and expansion initiatives, including the installation of additional crushing capacity to increase throughput, accelerated stripping activities to access ore more quickly, and updates to resource and reserve estimates.

The Fundraising is conditional on, among other things, Admission of the Fundraising Shares becoming effective at 8.00am BST on 23 April 2026 or such later time and/or date as the Company and the Joint Bookrunners agree, not being later than 8.00am BST on 20 May 2026 and the placing agreement entered into between the Company and the Joint Bookrunners not being terminated in accordance with its terms prior to Admission. The Issue Price represents a discount of 10% to the Company's share price of 4.0p at close on 17 April 2026, being the last practicable date prior to the publication of this announcement.
Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue, with voting rights, in the capital of the Company will be 2,198,914,748. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company's share capital pursuant to (i) the Company's Articles, (ii) the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules and/or (iii) the AIM Rules for Companies issued by the London Stock Exchange plc as amended from time to time.
