Results of Open Offer and General Meeting,

Acquisition of Stontronics

and Total Voting Rights

 

Stadium Group plc, a leading electronic technologies group, announced on 28 July 2015 the Fundraising of £6.0 million, subject to Shareholder approval, to finance the Initial Consideration in respect of the acquisition of Stontronics, a UK based manufacturer and distributor of power supply units, transformers and adaptors, which provides a power solution service to its customers.

 

Result of General Meeting

The Board is pleased to announce that at the General Meeting held earlier today, the Resolutions proposed were duly passed.

 

Accordingly it is expected that the Admission of the 5,454,546 New Ordinary Shares will become effective at 8.00 a.m. tomorrow, 14 August 2015 and that the Acquisition will complete on or around 19 August 2015, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Company) of all outstanding conditions to Completion (further details of which are set out in the circular issued to Shareholders on 28 July 2015).

 

Result of Open Offer

In addition to the Firm Placing, the Fundraising of £6.0 million included the Open Offer of up to 913,899 New Ordinary Shares at an issue price of 110 pence per New Ordinary Share, which closed for acceptances at 11.00 a.m. on 12 August 2015. The Company is pleased to announce that valid applications have been received from Qualifying Shareholders in respect of 1,577,327 Open Offer Shares, including applications under the Excess Application Facility. Therefore allocations under the Excess Application Facility have been scaled back such that the number of Open Offer Shares is 913,899.

 

Qualifying Shareholders who have validly applied for Open Offer Shares will receive their full Basic Entitlement and a proportion of any Ordinary Shares applied for under the Excess Application Facility.

 

The Fundraising remains conditional upon Admission becoming effective on or before 8.00 a.m. on 14 August 2015 (or such later time and / or date, being no later than 8.00 a.m. on 14 September 2015, as the Company and N+1 Singer may agree). Application has been made for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM with Admission expected to become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 14 August 2015.

 

Total Voting Rights

On Admission, the Company will have 36,527,096 Ordinary Shares in issue and no shares are held in treasury. Therefore the Company's total number of Ordinary Shares with voting rights will be 36,527,096.

 

The above figure of 36,527,096 may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

 

All defined terms in this announcement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the circular published by the Company on 28 July 2015.
