Uni-Fuels raises $1.7m in over-allotment

Additional shares were purchased for US$4 apiece.

Uni-Fuels Holdings Limited has raised additional gross proceeds of S$1.7m ($1.26m) after its US initial public offering (IPO) underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in full and purchased an additional 315,000 Class A Ordinary Shares at S$5.41 (US$4.00) per share.

“After giving effect to the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares sold by the company in the offering increased to 2,415,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and the gross proceeds increased to US$9.66m [S$13.04m], before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions,” the company statement read.

The Class A Ordinary Shares commenced trading on Nasdaq Capital Market on 14 January under the ticker symbol “UFG.”

Uni-Fuels intends to use the proceeds from the IPO for scaling up its reselling activities to gain market share from existing and new markets; for strengthening its workforce and expanding its market presence in new geographical locations; and as cash reserve and general corporate purposes.

R. F. Lafferty & Co., Inc. acted as the sole book-running manager for the offering.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
