The shareholders of e-Tranzact International Plc have approved the company’s decision to raise fresh/additional capital to the tune of N7 billion.

The approval was granted during the company’s Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) which took place in Lagos last Thursday, January 17th.

The company’s board Chairman, Mr Wole Abegunde, presented the capital raise to the shareholders during the meeting. According to him, it has become necessary to raise e-Tranzact’s authorised share capital at this time, especially considering the company’s expansion plans.

The company has also been making plans to increase its market share in order to better position itself for competitive advantage.

To this end, the fresh capital that is about to be raised will be used to facilitate the upgrade the ICT company’s technology and other security infrastructure. e-Tranzact will also invest part of the money into its Human Resources Unit as well as its Agent Network Expansion Programme.

Speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the EGM, the e-Tranzact’s CEO, Mr Niyi Toluwape, affirmed that a capital raise will help “the company’s management to strategically maintain the company leading position as a key market leader within the electronic payment industry.”

This is because the money would be deployed into the acquisition of latest technology and hiring of seasoned professionals who would bring about efficiency in the company’s operations.

As we reported, the company hinted at this capital raise back in December when it issued a notice to the Nigerian Stock Exchange announcing the EGM. The company later sent an explanatory note on the proposed capital raise to the NSE.

Meanwhile, this latest capital raise of N7 billion would help increase e-Tranzact Plc’s authorised shared capital from N2.1 billion to N9.1 billion.
