    Where does 400000*6/5 come from?

    Hi
    Before the rights issue there were 400,000 shares issued. The rights issue is one for every 5, so where we had 5 shares we now have 6, so we need to scale up the 400,000 by 6/5.

    Alternatively we issued 400,000/5 = 80,000 new shares, giving a total of 480,000.
