Kibo Subsidiary Announces TR-1 Notification of Major Shareholdings
Kibo Energy PLC (AIM: KIBO; AltX: KBO), the renewable energy-focused development company,
announces a TR-1 Notification by its subsidiary Mast Energy Developments PLC ('MED'), a UK-
based multi-asset owner, developer and operator in the rapidly growing flexible power market.
The proceeds from the disposal of the MED shares amounting to approximately £119,444 have been
used for Kibo's ongoing working capital requirements and to reduce the outstanding balance on the
Company's reprofiled bridge loan facility with RiverFort Global Opportunities PCC Ltd in order to
meet the monthly payments to reduce potential equity dilution arising from the elected missed
payment rights (refer Kibo RNS announcements of 11 and 26 April 2023).
