We write to advise that the 138 Student Living Jamaica Board met on February 7th 2023 as was previously notified, discussions were held with our financial advisor GK Capital Management Limited (“GKCM”) to discuss various alternatives open to 138 Student Living Jamaica Limited. Emanating from the discussions, the Board decided to undertake an equity raise by way of an Additional Public Offering (APO).

“This will allow the Board to achieve its primary objectives in this equity raise of securing the targeted capital, at a favourable valuation, whilst giving the existing stockholders the opportunity to further participate in the growth of the Company. In addition, the traded shares will become more liquid in the market” commented Mr. Ian Parsard, Chairman of 138 Student Living Jamaica Limited after the conclusion of the Board Meeting.
