The full read
SK Minerals & Additives is preparing for a potential capital infusion. On June 1, the board meets to weigh a fundraising proposal that could involve warrants, equity shares, or other securities. The company has opted for a preferential issue or private placement route, though it has kept the size and terms of the offering private for now.
