RNS Number : 6014S Camellia PLC 17 November 2021
17 November 2021
Camellia Plc
100% ownership of Bardsley England
Following its announcement on 2 August 2021 of an 80% stake in Bardsley
England ("Prior Announcement"), Camellia Plc (CAM.L, Camellia), the global
agriculture group, announces the purchase of the remaining 20% stake in
Bardsley England for a consideration of £1.7m from Bardsley Limited (the
"Acquisition"). As part of the purchase, Bardsley England has sold an
existing loan with a face value of approximately £1.1m to Bardsley Limited
resulting in net cash outflow from Camellia of approximately £0.6m.
Further information on Bardsley England is included in the Prior Announcement.
There has been no material change to the financial information relating to
Bardsley England since the Prior Announcement. However, the harvest this
year has been disappointing due to adverse weather conditions and the business
has also been impacted by weaker than expected customer demand. However, the
long-term fundamentals of the business remain strong and various initiatives
are in progress to improve its performance and profitability.
This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of
the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014.
