The company releases a response to an ASX Query. | 06/09/2024 |
The company lodges its preliminary final report. | 03/09/2024 |
Keybridge refers to previous disclosure regarding its funding of the liquidator for PR Finance Group Limited to recover losses from the entity's former directors. The liquidator recently withdrew from these proceedings and despite having argued that the directors' insurer should be responsible for the costs of the proceeding, a Court has ordered that the liquidator pay parties' costs. As part of this hearing, funds of $1.8 million were lodged with the Court as security for potential costs. Consequently, it is likely these funds will be called upon and Keybridge expects to recognise a loss. Keybridge is considering its position in relation to this matter. Independent of this outcome, Keybridge has booked more than $1.5 million in settlement gains during the June 2024 half year from other litigation in its portfolio. So, whilst disappointing, litigation outcomes ought to be assessed on a portfolio basis. | 29/08/2024 |
The company releases a response to ASX query. | 22/08/2024 |
Under Listing Rule 17.6, an entity (if not already suspended) that had not paid its annual listing fees by close of business on Wednesday, 21 August 2024 would have its securities suspended from Official Quotation before the commencement of trading on Thursday, 22 August 2024. The following entity has failed to pay to ASX Limited the annual listing fees for the year ending 30 June 2025 and consequently will have its securities suspended from quotation immediately. | 22/08/2024 |
The suspension of trading in the securities of Keybridge Capital Limited is expected to be lifted from the commencement of trading on Tuesday, 20 August 2024 following the receipt of market announcements from KBC in response to requests from ASX. | 19/08/2024 |
The following are the Company's unaudited after-tax net asset backing: as at 31 January 2024: 6.96 per share; as at 31 March 2024: 6.28 cents per share; as at 30 April 2024: 6.82 cents per share; as at 31 May 2024: 8.30 cents per share; as at 30 June 2024: 8.65 cents per share; and as at 31 July 2024 was 8.40 cents per share. | 19/08/2024 |
Keybridge has experienced a material increase in NTA from various sources, with its July 2024 NTA now standing at 8.40 cents, up from 6.53 cents as last reported for February 2024. Drivers of this have been a successful takeover of Yowie, an appreciation in the carrying value of its Manly property and various legal settlements. The Company has been corresponding with the ASX regarding a few matters related to the suspension of its securities. ASX has informed KBC that it is not satisfied that KBC's existing Related Party Policy or procedures for managing board-level conflicts of interest are adequate and appropriate. Whilst Keybridge does not agree with the ASX's views, it has engaged an external legal practitioner to review and update the Company's Related Party Policy, as required, which will then be lodged on the Company's website once the review is completed. | 19/08/2024 |
The securities of the company have been suspended for more than three months. If an entity does not meet the 1 or 2 year deadlines, it will be removed from the official list. The removal will usually take effect from the open of trading on the first trading day after the deadline date. | 12/07/2024 |

Offers made under its off-market takeover bid for the ordinary shares in Yowie Group Limited (Yowie) closed at 7.00pm on Friday 26 April 2024 pursuant to the terms of those offers.

The review Panel has declined to conduct proceedings on an application dated 17 April 2024 from Keybridge Capital Limited seeking a review of the initial Panel's decision to decline to conduct proceedings in Vintage Energy Limited. The review Panel considered that there are limited circumstances in which Vintage's equity raise could have an effect on the control of Vintage and that Vintage has taken steps to mitigate the potential control effect of the equity raise including by incorporating a dispersion strategy. The review Panel concluded there was no reasonable prospect that it would make a declaration of unacceptable circumstances. The review Panel declined to conduct proceedings. | 26/04/2024 |
The Panel has received an application from Keybridge Capital Limited seeking a review of the Panel's decision in Vintage Energy Limited .

The Panel has declined to conduct proceedings on an application dated 30 March 2024 from Keybridge Capital Limited in relation to the affairs of Vintage Energy Limited. The application concerned a placement and non-renounceable entitlement issue announced by Vintage on 25 March 2024, being around the time that the applicant gave ss 203D and 249D notices to the company. The applicant submitted, among other things, that the capital raising has an unacceptable change of control effect on Vintage and the capital raising is an unacceptable frustrating action to the applicant's s249D notice. Among other things, the Panel considered that the circumstances relating to the placement and entitlement issue are not likely to have a material effect on the control of Vintage, noting that the entitlement offer contained a dispersion strategy, including a top up facility and the appointment of a professional underwriter and a number of sub-underwriters. While the Panel considered that the disclosure of the potential control effect of the entitlement offer in the retail entitlement offer booklet would have been good practice, Vintage shareholders have been notified of the potential control effect via public disclosure on the ASX. | 16/04/2024 |
Keybridge hereby gives notice that as a result of an increase in its voting power in Yowie to more than 50% on 12 April 2024, the Offer period has been automatically extended by 14 days from that date.

Keybridge Capital Limited refers to its off-market takeover bid for all the ordinary shares in Yowie Group Limited. Keybridge advises the Offer Period will close at 7:00pm (Melbourne time) on 16 April 2024, and will not seek to further extend the Offer Period. Keybridge also advises that the offer price of 3.4c is best and final. | 03/04/2024 |
The Panel has received an application from Keybridge Capital Limited in relation to the affairs of Vintage Energy Limited. The applicant seeks interim orders to the effect that: Until the completion of Panel proceedings, the placement and the accelerated institutional component of the entitlement offer be stayed and Vintage must not commence the retail component of the entitlement offer. Vintage must provide a record of all Vintage shareholders that sold Vintage shares between 20 February 2024 and 22 March 2024. Vintage must disclose all other alternative funding arrangements that were available to it. The applicant seeks final orders to the effect that: Vintage must cancel the placement or, alternatively, scale back all oversubscriptions to the placement using a consistent formula. Vintage must scale back the entitlement offer to only the amount required. Vintage must accept underwriting offers from existing shareholders on equal terms to other underwriters. Vintage must remove the restriction on oversubscriptions by existing shareholders under the top-up facility for the retail entitlement offer.

There is a higher and less conditional offer available to shareholders, and shareholders would be generally unable to accept this higher offer if they accept the WAM Active bid. | 20/01/2020 |
Keybridge considers that Keybridge shareholders need to know whether Bentley is currently precluded by ASX LR 10.1 from accepting the WAM Active takeover bid, since it will affect the likelihood of the minimum acceptance condition of the WAM Active takeover bid being satisfied. Bentley should confirm to Keybridge and its shareholders whether definitive ASX advice has been obtained that Bentley is able to accept the WAM Active takeover bid without shareholder approval. Keybridge notes that WAM Active's bidder's statement, which was recently released to Keybridge shareholders, does not contain a defeating condition requiring the obtaining of such approval by Bentley or disclose the obtaining of a definitive ruling or relief from ASX on this subject. | 10/01/2020 |
The company has received notice of an intention to make an off-market cash takeover bid, at 6.6c per share, from Aurora Dividend Income Trust. Keybridge is presently considering this notice in conjunction with the previous cash bid for its shares made by WAM Active at 6.5c per share. | 08/01/2020 |

The offer is dated 3 January 2020 and is currently scheduled to close at 7.00pm (AEDT) on 3 February 2020, unless extended or withdrawn. | 03/01/2020 |
The Panel has declined to conduct proceedings on an application dated 5 December 2019 from Mr John Patton in relation to the affairs of Keybridge Capital Limited. The application concerned (among other things) an allegation of a possible contravention of section 631 in relation to a proposed bid by WAM Active Limited and an allegation of association between WAA and related entities and Bentley Capital Limited in relation to the composition of the Keybridge board and the WAA proposed bid. WAA's proposed bid was withdrawn and another proposed bid was announced on 13 December 2019. The Panel considered that the section 631 issue had been superseded by the withdrawal of the first proposed bid. The Panel concluded there was no reasonable prospect that it would make a declaration of unacceptable circumstances. Accordingly, the Panel declined to conduct proceedings. | 18/12/2019 |
WAM Active has made an announcement on the ASX platform advising that it withdraws its intention to make a cash bid for the company at 6.9c subject to certain conditions.

Keybridge is considering this bidders statement and advises that there is presently no action for shareholders to take in relation to the new reduced bid. | 17/12/2019 |

The Panel has received an application from Mr John Patton in relation to the affairs of Keybridge Capital Limited. Mr. Patton subimits that at the EGM certain proxies directing the proxy to vote in favour of the resolutions to remove Messrs Cato and Johnson were incorrectly ruled invalid and the resolutions were lost by a margin less than the number of votes excluded. Members of the WAM Group and Bentley voted against the resolutions to remove Messrs Cato and Johnson. A second extraordinary general meeting of Keybridge to remove ASG's representatives on the Keybridge board was adjourned. Mr Patton submits (among other things) that: a bidder's statement has not been lodged with ASIC, sent to Keybridge and given to ASX at least 14 days before the end of the two month period specified in section 6311 and therefore, it is inevitable that WAA will contravene section 631 and members of the WAM Group and Bentley have been acting in concert in a way that confers on each of them a relevant interest in the other's Keybridge shares in relation to the composition of the Keybridge board and the WAA proposed bid in breach of sections 606 and 671B. Mr Patton seeks interim orders in effect to restrain members of the WAM Group and Bentley disposing of or voting any of their Keybridge shares. Mr Patton seeks final orders to vest in ASIC for sale Keybridge shares held by members of the WAM Group and Bentley such that their combined holding does not exceed 19.99% of Keybridge and to restrain members of the WAM Group, Bentley and their associates from acquiring any Keybridge shares for a period of 6 months after the sale of the vested shares. | 06/12/2019 |

A spill resolution is required to be put at its AGM if Resolution 5 does not achieve that majority. The legislative provisions contemplate that the 'spill' resolution be considered at the same AGM that the Remuneration Report resolution is considered. The Chairman, after seeking external advice, has advised that he intends to open the AGM and then immediately adjourn it (as he is entitled) to allow for notice of this resolution to be given to shareholders prior to the resumption of the adjourned meeting. A supplementary notice of meeting will be issued shortly after the adjournment. An additional query has been raised by a shareholder regarding whether the Managing Director, Nicholas Bolton, needs to be the subject of a shareholder vote at the AGM. The company considers that its current position is correct and that this is not required having regard to the provisions of the listing rules and the company's constitution. | 28/11/2019 |
Today, Keybridge has written to two of the holders seeking clarification about their holdings in Keybridge ordinary shares, as, if the company elects for full conversion, those holders would not likely be able to receive all of the converted shares and be in compliance with the Corporations Act. Keybridge has determined to delay redemption of the notes until it receives and considers the response to this issue and can make an informed decision as to how it may, if it chooses, exercise its right to convert CRPN into ordinary shares rather than to redeem as cash. | 26/11/2019 |

The company has not yet determined if he is eligible to claim this amount under the company's director's indemnity. | 21/11/2019 |
Keybridge has determined, notwithstanding the technical oversight by those custodian shareholders, that the redemption requests ought be accepted, as the custodians have since confirmed that the forms were duly signed by authorised representatives and the requests reflected the wishes of those signatories and the underlying beneficial shareholders. The three outstanding redemption requests will be paid within 10 business days. William Johnson and Simon Cato have been formally requested to resign as directors, to give effect to the clear wishes of the majority of shareholders who wished to vote at the meeting. | 12/11/2019 |

The company has resolved to cancel the adjourned AGM called by Bentley Capital, otherwise scheduled to be held today. Bentley purported to withdraw the EGM by notice to the company, however as the EGM had already been opened, it is not clear that Bentley could do this on their own.

At the Bentley s249F EGM held subsequent to the ASG s249F EGM, John Patton failed to hand the Chair of the meeting to the AICD independent Chairman (as previously agreed by the Board) and adjourned the s249F EGM to 30 October 2019 without the consent of Bentley. In Bentley's view, this unlawful adjournment will likely mean that Bentley's s249F EGM will no longer comply with the statutory/constitutional time periods required for the holding of its meeting. Accordingly, Bentley reserves its rights in relation to the adjournment. Bentley advises that, as the convening shareholder of the s249F EGM, it has determined to withdraw the s249F EGM and accordingly that meeting will not be proceeding. | 28/10/2019 |

Keybridge has instructed its share registry to process the early redemptions of 397,944 CRPN's, those redemptions will be satisfied in full with cash. Keybridge elected not to convert those note holders that had requested Keybridge ordinary shares. Keybridge also received early redemption requests from three CRPN holders who executed their requests under Power of Attorney totalling 6,352,264 CRPN's. The POA Redemptions did not comply with the requirements of the early redemption form, in that copies of the relevant POAs were not provided together with the relevant form.

The company lodges its preliminary final report. | 03/09/2024 |
Keybridge refers to previous disclosure regarding its funding of the liquidator for PR Finance Group Limited to recover losses from the entity's former directors. The liquidator recently withdrew from these proceedings and despite having argued that the directors' insurer should be responsible for the costs of the proceeding, a Court has ordered that the liquidator pay parties' costs. As part of this hearing, funds of $1.8 million were lodged with the Court as security for potential costs. Consequently, it is likely these funds will be called upon and Keybridge expects to recognise a loss. Keybridge is considering its position in relation to this matter. Independent of this outcome, Keybridge has booked more than $1.5 million in settlement gains during the June 2024 half year from other litigation in its portfolio. So, whilst disappointing, litigation outcomes ought to be assessed on a portfolio basis. | 29/08/2024 |
The company releases a response to ASX query. | 22/08/2024 |
Under Listing Rule 17.6, an entity (if not already suspended) that had not paid its annual listing fees by close of business on Wednesday, 21 August 2024 would have its securities suspended from Official Quotation before the commencement of trading on Thursday, 22 August 2024. The following entity has failed to pay to ASX Limited the annual listing fees for the year ending 30 June 2025 and consequently will have its securities suspended from quotation immediately. | 22/08/2024 |

The following are the Company's unaudited after-tax net asset backing: as at 31 January 2024: 6.96 per share; as at 31 March 2024: 6.28 cents per share; as at 30 April 2024: 6.82 cents per share; as at 31 May 2024: 8.30 cents per share; as at 30 June 2024: 8.65 cents per share; and as at 31 July 2024 was 8.40 cents per share. | 19/08/2024 |
Keybridge has experienced a material increase in NTA from various sources, with its July 2024 NTA now standing at 8.40 cents, up from 6.53 cents as last reported for February 2024. Drivers of this have been a successful takeover of Yowie, an appreciation in the carrying value of its Manly property and various legal settlements. The Company has been corresponding with the ASX regarding a few matters related to the suspension of its securities. ASX has informed KBC that it is not satisfied that KBC's existing Related Party Policy or procedures for managing board-level conflicts of interest are adequate and appropriate.

The Panel has received an application from WAM Active Limited in relation to the affairs of Keybridge Capital Limited.

Keybridge considers that Keybridge shareholders need to know whether Bentley is currently precluded by ASX LR 10.1 from accepting the WAM Active takeover bid, since it will affect the likelihood of the minimum acceptance condition of the WAM Active takeover bid being satisfied. Bentley should confirm to Keybridge and its shareholders whether definitive ASX advice has been obtained that Bentley is able to accept the WAM Active takeover bid without shareholder approval.

The Panel has received an application from Mr John Patton in relation to the affairs of Keybridge Capital Limited. Mr. Patton subimits that at the EGM certain proxies directing the proxy to vote in favour of the resolutions to remove Messrs Cato and Johnson were incorrectly ruled invalid and the resolutions were lost by a margin less than the number of votes excluded. Members of the WAM Group and Bentley voted against the resolutions to remove Messrs Cato and Johnson. A second extraordinary general meeting of Keybridge to remove ASG's representatives on the Keybridge board was adjourned. Mr Patton submits (among other things) that: a bidder's statement has not been lodged with ASIC, sent to Keybridge and given to ASX at least 14 days before the end of the two month period specified in section 6311 and therefore, it is inevitable that WAA will contravene section 631 and members of the WAM Group and Bentley have been acting in concert in a way that confers on each of them a relevant interest in the other's Keybridge shares in relation to the composition of the Keybridge board and the WAA proposed bid in breach of sections 606 and 671B. Mr Patton seeks interim orders in effect to restrain members of the WAM Group and Bentley disposing of or voting any of their Keybridge shares. Mr Patton seeks final orders to vest in ASIC for sale Keybridge shares held by members of the WAM Group and Bentley such that their combined holding does not exceed 19.99% of Keybridge and to restrain members of the WAM Group, Bentley and their associates from acquiring any Keybridge shares for a period of 6 months after the sale of the vested shares. | 06/12/2019 |

Today, Keybridge has written to two of the holders seeking clarification about their holdings in Keybridge ordinary shares, as, if the company elects for full conversion, those holders would not likely be able to receive all of the converted shares and be in compliance with the Corporations Act.

At the Bentley s249F EGM held subsequent to the ASG s249F EGM, John Patton failed to hand the Chair of the meeting to the AICD independent Chairman (as previously agreed by the Board) and adjourned the s249F EGM to 30 October 2019 without the consent of Bentley. In Bentley's view, this unlawful adjournment will likely mean that Bentley's s249F EGM will no longer comply with the statutory/constitutional time periods required for the holding of its meeting. Accordingly, Bentley reserves its rights in relation to the adjournment. Bentley advises that, as the convening shareholder of the s249F EGM, it has determined to withdraw the s249F EGM and accordingly that meeting will not be proceeding. | 28/10/2019 |
