MTN Nigeria Communications Plc has announced the price of its initial public offering to retail investors.
The company is making 575 million of its shares available to the public at N169 per unit, the telecoms heavyweight said on Tuesday.
Sales will open at 8:00 am on December 1 and close at 5:00 pm on December 14. It is the first time the company will invite subscription from the public nearly two years after it debuted on the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX).
MTNN made the disclosure in a statement on the NGX website, signed by Company Secretary Uto Ukpanah.
“The minimum subscription is for 20 shares and lots of 20 shares thereafter. The offer includes an incentive in the form of 1 free share for every 20 shares purchased, subject to a maximum of 250 free shares per investor,” he said.
“The incentive is open to retail investors who buy and hold the shares allotted to them for at least 12 months, post the allotment date.”
This retail offer will be delivered via a digital platform, the first in Nigeria. By using the power of technology, the telco intends to facilitate the maximum possible participation by Nigerian investors, MTNN said.
