Helloworld Travel (ASX:HLO) raises $50K in entitlement offer

 

Helloworld Travel (ASX:HLO) has completed the retail component of its entitlement offer, raising a total of approximately $50 million, after the entitlement offer raised $41.6 million.

“As previously announced, the proceeds from the equity raising will provide Helloworld with the balance sheet liquidity and flexibility to maintain both its operating and capital expenditures well into 2022,” he added.
