Media Square plc ("Media Square" or the "Company")
Acquisition of Media Square by MSQ Partners Limited
Further to the announcement on 9 December, Media Square
announces that its Administrators have executed a sale of the
Company's shareholdings and its chattel assets to MSQ Partners
Limited ("MSQ") for a total consideration of GBP11 million payable
in cash and satisfied through new debt facilities provided to MSQ.
The sale proceeds will be used to repay, in part, the loans
outstanding to Media Square's bank.
Roger Parry, Peter Reid and Dean Wright have been appointed
Chairman, Chief Executive and Finance Director respectively of MSQ
in order to maintain continuity for the business and staff. Roger
Parry and Peter Reid are shareholders in MSQ.
In the year to 28 February 2011, the Company reported revenue of
GBP45.4 million and a loss before tax of GBP0.4 million. As a
result of the transaction, the Company will have no trading
business, and it is therefore the administrators' intention that
the Company exit administration and be dissolved as appropriate.
Creditors will be paid in full with the exception of the loans
outstanding to Media Square's bank. There will be no return to
Media Square's shareholders.
As a result of the above, Collins Stewart's engagement as
Nominated Adviser and Broker to Media Square was terminated with
immediate effect yesterday. Pursuant to AIM Rule 1, if a
replacement Nominated Adviser is not appointed within one month the
Exchange may cancel the admission of the Company's securities.
Accordingly the potential cancellation time and date is 7.00am on
12 January 2012.
