New Banking Facility
accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to leisure, entertainment, and cultural markets, today announces the successful agreement of a new banking relationship and facility with HSBC.
This new $40 million revolving credit facility has a four-year term, to May 2027, and is accompanied by a $20 million accordion option which the Group may utilise as it pursues its strategic plan into the mid-term. Numis acted as the debt advisor to the transaction.
The HSBC facility replaces the Group's undrawn £18 million arrangement with Investec from 19 March 2021, which was due to expire in March 2024. This facility has now been cancelled.
Steve Brown, accesso's CEO, commented:
"I'm very pleased to have agreed this new facility with HSBC. We are making excellent progress in delivering our growth plan, and this agreement increases our resilience while enhancing our ability to execute value accretive acquisitions where we see the potential to advance our plan more quickly. I'd like to welcome HSBC as an Accesso partner and thank them for their support."
