In line with our Surplus Property Update on 7 August 2025 and most recently described on 23 December 2025, the Company is pleased to announce the completion of the sale of the Hipper House surplus property. Exchange of contracts and completion took place simultaneously on 1 May 2026. The consideration due on completion is £760,000 and the Company has committed to pay future costs of up to £30,000. The net proceeds of £730,000 will be used to reduce current bank debt. The property attracted rental income of £25,224 during 2025 and the book value was £316,519 at 31 December 2025.
The intention of the Group remains, over time, to realise value from the disposal of surplus properties and use the proceeds to reduce indebtedness and develop our packaging business.
