MANILA, Philippines—Greenergy Holdings Inc. has gotten the nod of its board of directors to hike the company’s authorized capital stock to P5 billion from P2 billion to help fund its proposed renewable energy projects.
Antonio L. Tiu, president and chief executive officer of Greenergy, explained in a text message that the increase will be used specifically for the company’s proposed wind, biomass and hydropower projects.
Greenergy has already bared plans to embark on $1.3 billion worth of wind power projects in the Philippines over the next 10 years together with China-based Tianjin Tianbao Investment and Development Corp. (TTIDC). It also earlier forged a tie-up with Dutch firm Hydroring Capital BV to put up multiple hydropower projects and other related infrastructure and facilities in the Philippines.
In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange Monday, the power firm explained that under the investment agreement with Cleantech, Greenergy is mandated to raise fresh capital through the issuance of new shares from its unissued authorized capital stock amounting to P252 million by October 31.
In compliance with this obligation, the board of Greenergy has already approved and ratified the subscriptions of nine individuals and companies combined, to a total of 25.2 billion primary common shares worth P252 million.
In another development, Greenergy also disclosed the reacquisition of 1.23 billion common shares covered by the stock purchase plan. The said common shares will become treasury shares of the company.
