Gold explorer ALT Resources Limited (ASX:ARS) has shown no movement in trading on Monday after the company announced that it must undergo cancellation of Directors shares as per ASX listing guideline.
In the process of Placement, the company has issued 1,000,000 shares to its Director without taking the requisite approval of shareholders. As a result, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 has come into play which does not provide for ratification of securities issued instead implies Selective Reduction to be undertaken. That means the company has to perform the selective reduction of shares capital and accordingly cancel the shares issued to Directors.
Letâs understand what happened?

Accordingly, on 21st November 2018, the company completed the issue of 19,602,033 shares as the first tranche of $2.3 million placement.

Subsequently, on due receipt of shareholdersâ approval, the company issued 25,522,981 Shares under the second tranche of the placement on 26 November 2018.
But the shares issued under this second tranche of the Placement included issue to Directors. It consists of 166,667 shares issued to Director, Ms. Neva Collings and 833,333 Shares issued to Director, Mr. Andrew Sparke. But the share issue to Directors without taking a prior consent of shareholders as per ASX listing 10.11 has brought the company into the purview of Selective Reduction process implied by ASX. Under this process, the capital of the company will be selectively reduced, and Directors shares will be duly canceled.
