In order to encourage participation in the IPO and promote allocation to Ugandan investors, the Board of Directors has proposed a substantial enhancement of the incentive structure as described above.
Commenting on the revision of the incentive share structure, Manoj Murali, the Managing Director Airtel Uganda said, “The Company is keen to promote broad ownership of our shares and welcomes the participation of all investors.
We are excited about our growth trajectory and have, at minimum, doubled the incentive shares available for all categories of investors to further enhance the attractiveness of our IPO. The Airtel Uganda IPO is a landmark event in the country’s capital markets and we have left no stone unturned to ensure a successful outcome.”
All investors who have previously applied for shares will receive the revised Incentive shares as well.
