What was announced
Goodluck India Limited informed the exchanges that its subsidiary, Goodluck Defence and Aerospace Limited, has raised ₹276 Crore by way of a preferential issue.
Terms of the issue
- Shares allotted: 73,60,000 Equity Shares
- Face value: ₹10/- each
- Issue price: ₹375/- per Equity Share
- Premium: ₹365/- per Equity Share
- Allotted to persons other than the Promoters
Effect on shareholding
After the allotment, Goodluck India Limited holds 69.08% of the equity share capital of Goodluck Defence and Aerospace Limited. Since new shares went to outside investors, the parent's percentage holding in the subsidiary is lower than before, while the subsidiary itself gains fresh cash without the parent putting in money.
Use of proceeds
The subsidiary will use the money for its business requirements, including improving financial performance, enhancing margins, meeting working capital requirements, undertaking capital expenditure and general corporate purposes.
The company also states it is scaling its artillery shells production capacity from 1,50,000 unit per annum.
How investors may read it
Fund-raising at a premium by a defence subsidiary is typically seen as capital being brought in to support capacity expansion. The trade-off is a reduced ownership percentage for the parent in that subsidiary, which remains a majority-held entity at 69.08%.
