The company will offer up to 220 million shares to raise funds for its working capital requirements and pay off some bank obligations.
About P318 million of the sales proceeds will be used to settle outstanding bank loans ‑ Bank of the Philippine Islands (P175 million) and Malayan Colleges Inc. (P143 million).
Another P164 million will be used to fund ongoing projects such as the Rio-Tuba 2 with JGC Corp., the Petro-FCC facility of Petron with Daelim Philippines, and the Shang Grand Tower with Kuok Properties.
