Management Resource Solutions Plc

Update on acquisition of the D&M Group

 

On 5 March 2015 Management Resources Solutions Plc ("MRS" or "Company") announced that its wholly-owned Australian subsidiary, Management Resource Solutions Pty Ltd ("MRS Australia") had entered into an agreement, subject inter alia to shareholder approval, to acquire the D&M Group, a manufacturing, wet plant hire and dry plant hire group based in Queensland, Australia (the "Acquisition")

The general meeting to approve the Acquisition as a reverse takeover under the AIM Rules for Companies was held in Queensland, Australia at 6:00 p.m. (8:00 a.m. UK time) today and all resolutions proposed were passed unanimously.

The cash consideration for the Acquisition of A$6.7m and the new working capital facilities and equipment finance for the D&M Group is to be provided by Halcyon Capital Management Pty Ltd ("Halcyon"), which has entered into a loan agreement with MRS Australia to provide A$17,113,000 for the purposes of financing the Acquisition and providing such working capital.

MRS has been notified by Halcyon that there may be a delay in the provision of the first tranche of funds amounting to A$14,613,000 required to complete the Acquisition. Halcyon consider that one of the conditions to the loan, which requires the existing lenders to the D&M Group and MRS release, withdraw or discharge any security they hold over the assets of the enlarged group, has not yet been fully met and so it is not possible for the Company to draw down the funds to complete the Acquisition in Australia tomorrow as planned. Under the terms of the loan agreement the outstanding condition must be satisfied by no later than 31 August 2015 but the directors of MRS believe that the matter will be resolved very shortly.

Trading in the Company's ordinary shares of €0.01 each will continue on AIM and a further announcement will be made upon the completion of the acquisition of the D&M Group.
