Rome Resources plc
("Rome Resources" or the "Company")
Direct Subscription for Shares
Rome Resources plc (AIM: RMR), the DRC focused critical minerals explorer, announces that it has conditionally raised
approximately £787,500 (before expenses) by way of a direct subscription (the "Subscription") with existing shareholders of
the Company for a total of 450,000,000 new ordinary shares of 0.1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price
of 0.175 pence per new Ordinary Share (the "Issue Price"). The Issue Price represents a discount of approximately 16 per
cent. to the closing bid price on 28 September 2026. The Company has further agreed to issue in aggregate 25,731,429
introducer warrants, with an exercise price of £0.00175 per share for a term of 5 years.
The net proceeds will be used to fund preparatory work for the Company's next drilling campaign at its Bisie North Project in
the DRC, as well as for general working capital purposes. The Company also continues to engage with potential strategic
partners in relation to further developing both its Kalayi and Mont Agoma Projects.
Admission and Total Voting Rights
The Subscription shares will be issued as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares of
the Company. Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the 450,000,000 Subscription shares to be
admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is currently anticipated that the new Ordinary Shares will commence trading on
AIM at 8:00 a.m. on or around 5 October 2026.
Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will comprise 8,126,625,932 Ordinary Shares. Upon Admission this
number will represent the total voting rights in the Company and, following Admission, may be used by shareholders as the
denominator for the calculation by which they can determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to
their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Paul Barrett, Chief Executive Officer of Rome Resources, commented:
"We remain highly mindful of dilution, particularly given the significant discount at which we believe Rome Resources
currently trades relative to the value implied by its recently updated Mineral Resource Estimate.
Against this backdrop, and following consultation with existing shareholders, we have sought to raise only the minimum
capital we believe is necessary to maintain operational momentum in the DRC while we advance ongoing discussions with
potential strategic partners. We are thankful to the support and commitment by the existing shareholders, demonstrating
belief in the project and future potential.
We look forward to updating shareholders on progress in due course."
