About Norman Broadbent plc:
Norman Broadbent plc (AIM: NBB) is a leading Professional Services firm focusing on Talent Acquisition & Advisory Services. Since its formation nearly 40 years ago, Norman Broadbent has developed a portfolio of complementary services centered on Executive Search Solutions, Senior Interim Management, Research & Insight, and Leadership Consulting & Assessment. Unusually, Norman Broadbent is one of the few businesses of its type offering clients integrated Executive Search and Interim Management Solutions. This innovative approach gives clients immediate access to business-critical executive-level Talent, meeting both short and longer-term needs.
Information on Subscription:
As noted above, the Company announces its intention to raise approximately £297,380 before expenses by way of a subscription of 4,405,635 ordinary shares ("Ordinary Shares") at 6.75 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Issue Price") ("the Subscription Shares") (the "Subscription").
The Issue Price represents a premium of approximately 6.3 per cent to the closing mid-market price of NBB's existing Ordinary Shares on 24 September 2021 (being the last business day prior to this Announcement).
The funds will be used for general working capital purposes, as well as investment in new fee earners scheduled to join the business from October 2021 onwards.
The Subscription is not being underwritten and is conditional on admission of the Subscription Shares to trading on AIM. The Subscription is being conducted pursuant to the existing authorities granted to the Directors of the Company at its annual general meeting on 25 June 2021. The Company will announce the results of the Subscription to the market in due course.
The Company continues to monitor its working capital position, as well as its requirement for funding to pursue its growth strategy. The Company has had discussions with significant shareholders with regards to further funding options in addition to the Subscription, and the Board will update shareholders when appropriate.
Financial Statements:
CFO Review:
In the six months to 30 June 2021, the Group reported positive EBITDA of £6,000 (H1 2020: £11,000) on turnover of £3,095,000 (H1 2020: £4,430,000). We are pleased with this result which has been achieved during a period of continued disruption due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Group continues to provide a more balanced service providing clients with an integrated range of relevant, complementary, progressive, and sophisticated offerings. This not only helps us serve our clients better, but also enables us to differentiate ourselves in what is becoming an increasingly transactional and commoditised traditional executive search market.
Our aim is to continue strategically scaling all business units. As we continue to grow, we will maintain our focus on innovation, client-service, enhancing our established brand, the growth of high-quality recurring revenues, and continued profitability. Despite the pandemic, we have not been deflected from pursuing our long-term strategy. This has seen us transition the Group over the past few years to a business which is structured around specific industry and functional hubs and away from individual teams focussing on their own service line. This strong client focus benefits our customers and, in turn, benefits the company as evidenced by the record levels of internal referrals of work. By making this change we are no longer a traditional, siloed, pure-play executive search business but something much broader, more progressive, and relevant in today's market. Increasingly our clients see us for what we now are - a problem-solving business partner offering bespoke solutions incorporating Consulting, Interim, Research & Insight, and high ‐ quality fully retained Search Solutions.

Weighted average number of ordinary shares |
|
55,218,903 |
53,885,570 |
54,217,990 |
ii) Diluted earnings per share:
This is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company has issued share options which are potentially dilutive. A calculation is done to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined as the average annual market share price of the Company's shares) based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to the outstanding options. The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the share options.

It has been calculated to allow shareholders to gain a clearer understanding of the trading performance of the Group.
