The offer is open to all shareholders who are registered with the firm by October 16th and must exercise their warrants by September 28th.

The tender offer will also present tendering shareholders with an opportunity to sell more than their pro rata entitlement (up to their entire holding of ordinary shares) to the extent that other shareholders tender less than their pro rata entitlement, Raven said.

The share price fell 0.46% to 65.50p by 08:17.
