Canaccord Genuity’s Corporate Broking team is pleased to announce it has acted as Joint Bookrunner to Southern Energy Corp. (“Southern”) in its $31m financing on AIM and TSX-V.
Southern is a natural gas exploration and production company with a primary focus on acquiring and developing conventional natural gas and light oil resources in the southeast Gulf States of Mississippi, Louisiana, and East Texas.
The transaction involved a Placing on AIM via an Accelerated Book Build raising $13.5 million (which was upsized from $12.5 million) and a concurrent Bought Deal for $17.5 million on TSX-V. Canaccord Genuity was Joint Bookrunner to the AIM Placing and has a syndicate position on the TSX-V Bought Deal.
