Earlier this year, Catcha Digital completed a RM24.3mil fundraising through a rights issue of shares with warrants, which achieved a remarkable 78% oversubscription.
According to the group, when the warrants are fully exercised, the group is poised to potentially raise up to an additional RM73mil to fuel its growth plans.
"The success of our recent fundraising gives us the financial strength required to continue execute our vision. We will continue to pursue strategic partnerships, investments and acquisitions that are directly accretive to our earnings per share," said Catcha Digital chairman Patrick Grove.
