Genedrive PLC - Manchester-based pharmacogenetic testing - Completes placing of 138.8 million new shares at 1.5 pence each, raising GBP2.1 million. The placing is part of an overall equity raise being run by Peel Hunt LLP. Late Thursday, Genedrive had said it will try to raise a minimum of GBP6.0 million, including offers to retail investors. If that minimum is not reached, then only the firm placing will go ahead. The placing and retail offer prices will be the same and represent a more than 50% discount to Genedrive's closing price on Thursday.
