Argo Blockchain has completed a fundraise
March 2021 — Argo Blockchain has raised funds to purchase more mining rigs and accelerate growth.
Argo is a publicly traded blockchain technology company focused on large-scale cryptocurrency mining. The firm supports continued growth, innovation and function of the world’s top blockchain networks.
Our role in the transaction
Oaklins Cavendish’s sister firm finnCap, based in the UK, acted as advisor and broker to Argo Blockchain, raising close to US$28m of the overall fundraise from a number of UK institutional funds. The team led the fundraise and coordinated the deal with two other brokers. finnCap’s book was significantly oversubscribed, which assisted in securing a successful placing price which the market and company were both happy with.

The London Stock Exchange’s Private Securities Market (PSM) continues to demonstrate its potential as a venue for providing shareholder liquidity in high-growth private companies. Following the successful employee share sale for autonomous driving pioneer Wayve earlier this month, fintech leader Moneybox has completed a US$61 million (£45 million) employee liquidity event through the PSM. By structuring the transaction as an employee liquidity event, long-serving employees with vested equity have been able to realize some of the value they helped create while enabling Moneybox to remain private and continue its growth journey. Crowdcube managed the employee seller and investor participation process.
