David Jones increases stake in Vast Resources to 13.46%

LONDON - David Ian Jones, an investor, has crossed a significant threshold in his holdings of Vast Resources PLC, now owning 13.46% of the voting rights, according to a notification filed with the company and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). The change in ownership was effective as of Monday, with the company being notified the following day.

The notification, a standard TR-1 form, indicates that Jones acquired additional voting rights that led to an increase in his total position from a previous 12.04% to the current 13.46%. The total number of voting rights he holds in Vast Resources PLC now stands at 51,217,551.

Vast Resources PLC, the issuer of the shares, has not released any further details regarding the transaction. The significance of this change in holdings is that it reflects a notable shift in the ownership structure of the company, potentially impacting its governance and strategic direction given the size of Jones’s investment.

The disclosure of such transactions is a regulatory requirement meant to ensure transparency in the financial markets, allowing investors and the public to be informed about major changes in company ownership. The TR-1 form is a tool used within the UK to disclose stakes in companies that exceed certain thresholds.

This transaction does not involve any controlled undertakings through which voting rights or financial instruments are effectively held. It is a direct acquisition of voting rights by David Ian Jones. There were no financial instruments listed in the notification that would imply future changes to the voting rights through conversion or exercise.

The information from this report is based on the press release statement issued by Vast Resources PLC and the notification submitted to the FCA. It provides a factual account of the changes in holdings without speculating on the reasons behind the acquisition or its potential impact on the company’s operations or market performance.
