Italian utility Enel SpA (BIT:ENEL), which controls Chile-based Enel Americas, said in a statement that in this period it subscribed for 10.64 billion newly issued shares for a total amount of USD 1.72 billion.
Overall, about 18.22 billion newly issued Enel Americas shares were subscribed for from a total of 18.73 billion shares offered in the cash call. The offer period ran from June 27 to July 26.
The remaining unexercised pre-emptive rights will be offered over a period of 24 days beginning on August 6, 2019, to shareholders which subscribed for newly issued shares during the first period.
