Through the initial public offering, LHN Logistics will raise approximately $5 million through the listing of 25,238,000 placement shares at 20 cents each.
The net proceeds will amount to approximately $3.6 million, after deducting the estimated listing expenses payable in cash by the company.
The document said $3.2 million of the net proceeds will go towards the partial financing of the construction of the company's ISO tank depot at 7 Gul Avenue, while the remainder will go towards the expansion of the company's transportation fleet and acquisition of moving equipment.

The earnings per share of the group based on the company's post-placement share capital will amount to $0.0198, while its share price will be 10.1 times that of its earnings in financial year 2021.

Upon completion of the placement, LHN will remain a controlling shareholder, with approximately 84.1 per cent of the post-placement issued share capital.
