The public offer for Count Financial subsidiary Countplus opens today, following a 100 per cent take-up by Countplus principals of the shares made available to them.
Count Financial announced to the Australian Securities Exchange on Friday that the public offer to raise a minimum of $20 million underwritten by Count Financial Limited would open today and close on Monday 13 December (if not over-subscribed earlier).
The announcement said the principals’ offer closed on Friday, with the principals of firms not yet wholly owned by Countplus being eligible to take up to 20 per cent of their consideration in cash.
It said that the principals elected to take 94 per cent in shares and 6 per cent in cash, and would collectively form the largest shareholder group of the Countplus listing.
