Retail Food Group (RFG) suffered its worst dive in five-months this morning as the stock came out of a trading halt following a capital raising.

The food franchisor crashed 4.6% to $4.37 on news that it was offering shareholders new stock for $4.30 a pop to raise around $7 million.

Retail Food Group, which owns brands like Donut King, Brumby’s Bakeries and Michel’s Patisserie, is part of the Uncapped 100
