Subject of the Disclosure
Reallocation of Use of Proceeds
Background/Description of the Disclosure
The Board of Directors of Axelum Resources Corp. (the “Corporation”) approved the reallocation of the total amount of Php1 Billion from the use of proceeds raised from its IPO, composed of the following amounts:
1) Php820 Million intended to fund strategic acquisitions from 2020-2022; and 2) Php180 Million intended to fund the expansion of domestic and international distribution networks from 2020-2021,
to be used instead to prepay loans of the Corporation to save on interest expense.
The Board decided on the above-mentioned reallocation due to the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, which makes it untimely and risky to pursue the original intended use of proceeds consisting of strategic acquisitions and expansion of international marketing networks in the next few years. However, the Board is still seriously pursuing opportunistic acquisitions that may be available because of the COVID-19 pandemic and is confident that, after retiring the current debt, the Corporation's bankers will be more accommodating to finance any acquisition opportunity when it arises.
