Gance sold the shares at AUD 2.88 each in a transaction worth about AUD 250 million, according to the report, which cited a substantial shareholder notice lodged with the Australian Securities Exchange. The sale is expected to be the first in a series of block trades involving shares held by Sigma's billionaire co-founders.
For investors, the potential sell-down adds a supply consideration alongside Sigma's operating performance. Further disposals could affect trading conditions while the remaining escrow restrictions expire.
