Analysis · SRCRF · Energy & Transportation
Scorpio Gold closed a public offering that grew from an initial C$8M to C$10.8M, issuing 43.2 million shares at C$0.25 each. The offering price is a 38% premium to today's US$0.1811 (roughly C$0.25 vs. C$0.18), signaling institutional demand despite the dilutive impact. Proceeds fund exploration at the Manhattan Property and general working capital, extending the company's runway. The deal includes 2.45 million broker warrants with a C$0.25 strike, adding potential future dilution. This follows a C$70M shelf registration filed earlier this month, and the upsizing suggests stronger-than-expected investor appetite.
