Sale of Lottery Business

 

Further to the Company's announcement of 21 October 2021, the Board would like to provide an update in respect of the sale of certain assets of Prize Provision Services Limited (the "Lottery Administration Business") to Sterling Management Centre Ltd (the "Buyer"). 

 

The transaction is proceeding well with a good working relationship between the Buyer and the Lottery Administration Business. As the transaction has progressed there have been some unexpected complexities that have needed navigating. These are mainly related to complex banking requirements and having to ensure the many hundreds of charities that rely on the Lottery Administration Business are considered at every step of the way.  This has meant matters are taking slightly longer than anticipated, however both Parties are operating on a time is of the essence basis.


The Company and the Buyer have a target of signing the Sales and Purchase Agreement during the middle part of February. The Board fully expects the transaction to close as anticipated, with the time amendment stated herein being the only variance.
