B.P. Marsh & Partners Plc
("B.P. Marsh" or the "Company")
Proposed Buyback of up to approximately 0.8 million shares in the Company from
PSC UK Pty Ltd
The Company notes the announcement issued earlier today by PSC UK Pty Ltd (the
"Selling Shareholder"), a wholly owned subsidiary company of the Ardonagh
Group, in which it announced its intention to sell its entire shareholding of
approximately 3.6 million ordinary shares in the Company (the "Placing
Shares") at a price of 650 pence per Placing Share by way of an accelerated
bookbuild to institutional investors (the "Placing"). The Placing Shares
represent approximately 9.8% of the Company's issued share capital.
The Company has notified the Selling Shareholder of its intention to
participate in the Placing for up to 769,231 Placing Shares (the "Proposed
Buyback") at the placing price. The Proposed Buyback will be conducted in
accordance with the Company's existing buyback authority (the "Authority")
granted at its General Meeting held on 2 June 2025 (the "General Meeting").
Given the strength of the Company's balance sheet and the prevailing
circumstances, the Board believes the Proposed Buyback is a good use of the
Company's significant cash balances and expects the Proposed Buyback to be
accretive to the Company's net asset value per share and in the best interest
of all shareholders.
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the Placing.
A further announcement will be made if and when appropriate.
