Dilutive Fundraising

Under what circumstances should an IT run a big, dilutive share issue, without pre-emption rights?

Today's announcement from JLEN[1] basically says "we're raising funds because we feel like it" - the funds might pay down debt or might acquire new assets. If there were a specific purpose for fundraising, I could at least take a view on whether it merited my support: it might even look something like a regular corporate action. But when it's just vague empire-building, I'm minded to vote against disapplying preemption rights.
