Admission to AIM
Sigma, the specialist asset management and advisory group, is pleased to note that shares in Frontier IP Group Plc ("Frontier IP") have today been admitted to trading on AIM. For further details, see Frontier IP's separate announcement issued this morning.
Following Admission, Sigma's shareholding in Frontier IP has reduced from 77.4% to 46.7%. Therefore, as previously indicated, Frontier IP will be treated as an associate company rather than as a subsidiary in Sigma's accounts and accounted for as an investment, at fair value, in Sigma's balance sheet.
Graham Barnet, CEO of Sigma, commented,
"We are delighted that Frontier IP has successfully completed its Admission to AIM. With the independent financial platform which the AIM quotation provides, Frontier IP has the foundations in place to take advantage of the growth opportunities in the IP commercialisation industry and I am confident that the business will continue to make further progress going forward."
