Weebit Nano Ltd's stock soared 19.80% during intraday trading on Thursday, following the company's announcement of successful capital raising activities.
The semiconductor technology company raised approximately A$102 million in total, which includes an A$87 million placement and an additional A$15 million from a completed share purchase plan. As part of the fundraising, Weebit Nano will issue 3,705,094 new shares at a price of A$4.05 per share.
