• The offering is expected to represent about 12 per cent of Mynt's outstanding shares post-IPO.
• Shares will have a par value of 0.03 pesos each.
• The shares will consist of both primary and secondary offers.
• Mynt, which operates the country's top e-wallet GCash, aims to raise around $1 billion and is seeking a valuation of at least $8 billion, Reuters reported in May.
• The offering, if completed at that size, would rival the roughly $1 billion raised by food company Monde Nissin in 2021, the Philippines' largest IPO to date.
• In a separate statement, Mynt said its board and shareholders also authorised the two filings.
