('TG21' or 'the Company')
TG21 plc increases its investment in public transport CCTV
TG21 Plc is today pleased to announce that it has acquired a further 26% in
21st Century Crime Prevention Services Limited ('21st Century') bringing its
total holding to 75%.
21st Century is a leading provider of CCTV and black-box solutions for the UK
public transport sector, selling mainly to bus operators and manufacturers.
21st Century has developed a system which facilitates the automatic download of
recordings as the CCTV equipped vehicle returns to its depot, along with
`Heartbeat' which transmits an alert in the event of any camera failure.
The Company paid the option price of £2,192,138 in cash to bring its holding to
75% and retains a further option to acquire the remaining 25% of 21st Century.
Peter Ward, Chairman, commented:
'I am delighted with the progress being made to integrate 21st Century with the
TG21 engineering, call centre and distribution resource. This acquisition gives
us a controlling stake in 21st Century, a much stronger footing in this
expanding market and will allow us to consolidate this new subsidiary's sales
and profit growth with the rest of the group.'
