On the 17th June, 2015 the Company acquired the entire issued share capital of Petrol Sign bv, a Company based in The Netherlands from Lambooij Holdings B.V. The consideration for the acquisition was E3,400,000 and was paid in cash on completion.
Petrol Sign bv designs, restyles, produces and installs the complete appearance of petrol station superstructures and forecourt. The acquisition will enhance and widen the ability of our Petrol Station Superstructure Division to offer a more complete package of services to customers.

The goodwill of £588,000 comprises certain intangible assets that cannot be individually separated from the acquiree due to their nature. These items include the expected value of synergies and an assembled workforce. Goodwill is allocated entirely to the petrol station superstructures unit. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Transaction costs of £104,000 have been expensed and included in administration costs.
From the date of acquisition Petrol Sign bv has contributed £4,726,000 of revenue and a profit of £405,000 to the profit before tax from continuing operations of the Group. If the combination had taken place at the beginning of the year the consolidated profit of the Group would have been £1,692,000 and the revenue of the Group would have been £49,309,000
The preliminary announcement is prepared on the same basis as set out in the previous year's accounts.
The Directors confirm to the best of their knowledge that:
(a) the financial statements, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the group and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole; and
(b) the Chairman's Statement includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the group and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that they face.
The preliminary announcement was approved by the Board on 9th June, 2016 and the above responsibility statement was signed on its behalf by Michael Bell, Executive Chairman and Michael O'Connell, Group Finance Director.
Copies of this announcement are available from the Company's registered office at MS INTERNATIONAL plc, Balby Carr Bank, Doncaster, DN4 8DH, England.
