Gold exploration and development company Panthera Resources Plc (AIM: PAT), with assets in West Africa and India, announces the issue of 142,066 new ordinary shares of 1p each in the capital of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares"), at an average issue price of 18.92 pence per new Ordinary Share (the "Issue Price") to settle accrued director fees.
Shares in Lieu of Fees
The Company has agreed to issue 142,066 new Ordinary Shares in order to satisfy the Company’s non-executive directors’ accrued fees for the period between 1 April 2026 to 30 September 2026 (together the “Fee Shares”).
The issue of equity in order to satisfy accrued fees has been done in previous years in relation to the Company’s non-executive directors. In this regard, the issue of the Fee Shares reduces the Company's cash expenditures and further aligns the interests of the Company’s board of directors with the Company’s shareholders. The Fee Shares were priced at the 30-day volume-weighted average price in the month preceding each respective fee period. Further details of the Fee Shares are as follows:
