AIM - WINNERS

Caledonian Holdings PLC, up 14% at 0.004 pence, 12-month range 0.00225p-0.0055p. Investee AlbaCo Ltd has signed a GBP25 million subscription agreement. Caledonian says the funds will enable AlbaCo, which aims to establish itself as a UK bank targeting the small-to-medium enterprise market, to support its pre-requisite regulatory capital requirements, underpinning its application for full authorisation. Says completion of the fundraise represents a major inflection point in the establishment of a significant new force in UK banking, subject to regulatory approval. AlbaCo will now proceed with the Prudential Regulatory Authority to obtain an unconditional banking licence, after which it will be able to start trading. Caledonian, which currently holds a 5.47% stake in AlbaCo, has agreed to provide GBP110,000 of short-term funding in addition to its investments totalling GBP2.2 million announced in October, December and January.
