Completion of acquisition
Further to the announcement of 11 June 2019, Aquila, a company
formed to acquire and operate growing businesses operating in the
affordable housing services sector, is pleased to announce the
payment of the balance of the Initial Price as contemplated under
the share purchase agreement (the "SPA") of GBP942,667 (the
"Further Payment").
A payment in cash of GBP202,012 has already been made to the
Sellers on account of the Initial Price and the Further Payment,
satisfied by both cash and the issue of new ordinary shares (the
"Consideration Shares"), was determined by Oaks' financial
performance to the year ended 31 March 2019 and subject to a
Completion Account mechanism ("Completion").
The Further Payment comprises GBP212,419 in cash, and the issue
of 2,544,415 Consideration Shares at GBP0.287 per share, being a
sum equal to the average of the closing middle market price of an
ordinary share of 5p each ("Ordinary Share") for each of the five
Business Days immediately preceding Completion.
Issue of Equity
Application has been made to the Financial Conduct Authority and
to the London Stock Exchange for the 2,544,415 Consideration
Shares, which will rank pari passu with all existing Ordinary
Shares, to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the
Main Market of the London Stock Exchange ("Admission"). Admission
is expected to take place on or around 14 November 2019.
Total Voting Rights
In conformity with rule 5.6.1 of the Financial Conduct
Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules (the DTRs)
the Company is notifying the market of the following:
As at Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist
of 37,852,191 ordinary shares of 5p each with voting rights. There
are no shares held in treasury.
The above figure of 37,852,191 may therefore be used by
shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they
may determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
change to their interest in, the Company under the DTRs.
Holding(s) in Company
Following the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares,
each of the two founders of Oaks have become interested in >3%
of the Company's enlarged share capital. The two individual TR-1
notifications are set out in Appendix I below.
The information contained within this announcement is deemed by
the Company to constitute inside information as stipulated under
the Market Abuse Regulations (EU) No. 596/2014 ("MAR").
