Placement capacity

How much stock a company can place without asking holders. Listing Rule 7.1 / 7.1ARule 7.1 lets a company issue up to 15% of its shares in 12 months without a shareholder vote. Rule 7.1A adds 10% for smaller companies whose holders approve it. allows 15% of ordinary securities in any 12 months, and every Appendix 3BNotice that a company proposes to issue new securities, such as a placement. The securities are not on issue until a later filing confirms it. states how much of it an issue uses.

About 14% of the 15% placement capacity left — about 86% used by Appendix 3B filings in the last 12 months (estimate, as at 2026-10-28). The company has also placed under the additional 10% (Listing Rule 7.1A), which is not counted in this figure. Holders passed a ratification we could not match to exactly one filing, or whose number of shares the result does not state, and shares issued with holder approval are not added to the base, so the true headroom may be higher.
