Peninsula Energy closes heavily oversubscribed share purchase plan

Peninsula is producing uranium from the Lance Projects.

Peninsula Energy (ASX:PEN) has been swamped by existing shareholders wanting to participate in the company's share purchase plan (SPP).

The SPP was priced at $0.50, the same as a price as the recent placement, and a recent increase in the uranium price had the offer trading in-the-money.

Peninsula last traded at $0.67.

The underwritten SPP was for A$6.5 million, and was heavily oversubscribed attracting 1340 applications for circa A$15.47 million.

A scale back is expected, with details to come.

The issue date for the SPP shares is 13 March 2017.
