Proposed Capital Reorganisation
Defined terms used in this announcement have the meanings given to them in the circular issued to shareholders of the Company on 26 May 2021 unless the context otherwise requires.
Further to the approval of Resolution 6 at the Annual General Meeting, the Company is proceeding with the Consolidation and Sub-Division with a record date of 6.00 p.m. on 18 June 2021.
Application has been made for the simultaneous cancellation of the Existing Ordinary Shares from CREST and admission of the New Ordinary Shares to CREST and admission to trading on AIM. It is expected that the New Ordinary Shares will be admitted to trading on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on 21 June 2021.
Immediately following the Consolidation and the Sub-Division, but prior to the Capital Reduction, the Company will have 38,879,431 Ordinary Shares in issue, with no Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, following the Consolidation and Sub-Division, this is the total number of voting rights in the Company and may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for calculations by which they determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
The ISIN code for the New Ordinary Shares is GB00BN7CJ686 and the SEDOL number is BN7CJ68, which will come into effect at 8.00 a.m. on 21 June 2021.
In addition, further to approval of Resolution 7 at the Annual General Meeting, the Company will apply to the Court for confirmation of the cancellation of the Capital Reduction Shares and the cancellation of the Share Premium Account. Further announcements in respect of the Capital Reduction will be made at the appropriate time.
