CALGARY, Alberta, Sept. 24, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RMMI Corp. (“RMMI” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce today that it has successfully completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 1,765,700 common shares of RMMI at a price of $2.50 per common share for gross proceeds of approximately $4.4 million. Subject to RMMI fulfilling certain customary Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) requirements, the common shares of RMMI are expected to commence trading on the CSE on September 25, 2018 under the trading symbol “RMMI”.
“Management and the Board of Directors are extremely pleased with the successful completion of our initial public offering and we look forward to having RMMI trading on the CSE,” said Earl Connors, President and CEO of RMMI. “We are proud to announce that RMMI has joined the growing family of cannabis companies listed on the CSE and believe this represents an important milestone for the Company and its shareholders. RMMI was able to complete this milestone within two years of incorporation, which speaks to the dedication and hard work of our team. We will continue to build on this foundation, enhancing shareholder value, increasing liquidity and executing our strategy.”
The Offering was made on a commercially reasonable efforts basis and was led by Canaccord Genuity Corp., as lead agent, and Haywood Securities Inc. as co-agent (collectively, the “Agents”). In connection with the Offering, the Agents received a cash commission and were granted compensation warrants. RMMI has granted the Agents an over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) that is exercisable at the Agents’ sole discretion, to offer for purchase and sale additional common shares of RMMI in an amount that is equal to 15% of the total number of common shares issued under the Offering at a price of $2.50 per common share. The Agents may exercise the Over-Allotment Option, in whole or in part, at any time on or before the date that is 60 days following the date of closing of the Offering.
An amended and restated (final) prospectus relating to the Offering has been filed with securities commissions in the provinces of Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario, and a copy is available under RMMI’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
