Advanced Oncotherapy (AIM: AVO), the developer of next-generation proton therapy systems for cancer treatment, is pleased to provide an update to its announcement of 7 August 2019 regarding funding for progressing verification and validation activity in order to obtain regulatory approval of its first LIGHT system.

The Company is pleased to announce that, due to additional investor demand, the final tranche of the equity fundraise announced on 7 August 2019 has been increased from £2.5 million to approximately £2.9 million. This will result in the issue of 7,364,162 new ordinary shares of 25 pence each ("New Ordinary Shares") at a price of 40 pence per share (the "Issue Price"). 72,912 of these New Ordinary Shares are being issued to a financial adviser in lieu of fees in relation to the fundraising.

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will take place on or around 7 October 2019.

Total Voting Rights

Upon Admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 237,592,656 Ordinary Shares, with voting rights. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares in the Company with voting rights will be 237,592,656. The aforementioned figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
