Ryman completes Retail Entitlement Offer
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE IN THE UNITED STATES
NZX RELEASE
13 March 2025
Ryman completes Retail Entitlement Offer, concluding the Offer
Ryman Healthcare Limited (Ryman) (NZX: RYM) advises that it has successfully completed
the retail entitlement offer component (Retail Entitlement Offer) of its 1 for 3.05 pro-
rata accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer (Entitlement Offer).
Ryman has raised a total of $1 billion under the Placement and Entitlement Offer announced
on 24 February 2025. This includes gross proceeds of approximately $721 million received
under the Placement and Institutional Entitlement Offer, and approximately $280 million in
gross proceeds under the Retail Entitlement Offer.
The Retail Entitlement Offer was well-supported in the current market climate, with eligible
retail shareholders subscribing for approximately $119 million of new fully paid ordinary
shares in Ryman (New Shares), including approximately $11 million of oversubscriptions.
Eligible retail shareholders who took up their entitlements in full and applied for New
Shares in excess of their entitlements received all of the New Shares for which they applied,
meaning they could maintain their existing percentage shareholding through the Placement
and Entitlement Offer. The effective take up rate by eligible retail shareholders was
approximately 42%.
The approximately 53 million of New Shares not taken up under the Retail Entitlement
Offer have been allocated to the underwriters and/or to sub-underwriters procured by the
underwriters including a range of existing institutional shareholders.
CEO Naomi James said, “We are delighted to have completed this equity raise. We
appreciate the support from our retail shareholders in the face of the challenging market
conditions, as well as the breadth of support received from both new and existing
institutional shareholders who participated strongly in the Placement and the Institutional
Entitlement Offer whilst also providing quality sub-underwriting support for the Retail
Entitlement Offer. This capital raising will enhance Ryman’s financial stability and resilience in
the current market climate and provide the platform required to achieve an improved level
of performance and return to growth as market conditions recover.”
The New Shares offered under the Retail Entitlement Offer are expected to be allotted and
commence trading on the NZX on Monday, 17 March 2025 and will rank equally with
existing fully paid ordinary shares.
