Share Capital Reduction

 

The Company announces that the cancellation of its share premium account (the "Capital Reduction"), which was approved by shareholders on 15 June 2021, was sanctioned by the High Court of England and Wales on 5 October 2021. The effect of the Capital Reduction is to create distributable reserves. The order of the High Court confirming the Capital Reduction, and the statement of capital approved by the High Court in connection therewith, were delivered to the Registrar of Companies today. The Capital Reduction will become effective upon the registration of the Court order by the Registrar of Companies, which is expected to take place shortly.

 

The Company confirms that, following the Capital Reduction, the issued share capital of the Company remains at 60,000,000 ordinary shares of £0.001 each and 49,950,000 deferred shares of £0.001 each; there are no shares held in treasury.
