SUPERGLASS HOLDINGS PLC
("Superglass" or the "Company")
First Day of Dealings on AIM and
Completion of Restructuring and £12.9 million Placing
Superglass is pleased to confirm the admission of the Company's Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM at 8.00am today, 4 June 2013. The Ordinary Shares are now no longer traded on the Main Market and their listing on the Official List has been cancelled.
The restructuring of the Company's debt, the Placing and the other Proposals, the terms of which are set out in the Circular issued by the Company on 3 May 2013, are now complete.
Following Admission, the Company's cash balances total approximately £9.2 million and the level of core debt is substantially reduced to £2.5 million, which is subject to a bullet repayment due on 30 April 2018.
Superglass now has a considerably strengthened, long term capital structure as a platform upon which to build a sustainable, strong and resilient business that is better positioned to compete more effectively in challenging markets.
The Placing comprised the issue of 25,800,000 New Ordinary Shares at a price of 50 pence per New Ordinary Share. This is the equivalent of 2 pence per Ordinary Share prior to the Share Consolidation, which became effective on Admission, and comprised every 25 Post-Capital Reorganisation Shares being consolidated into one New Ordinary Share.
