══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
22 November 2024
ZENTRA GROUP PLC
(“Zentra”, “the Company” or “the Group” or “ZNT”)
Completion of property transactions and listing update
Zentra Group PLC (previously One Heritage Group PLC), a UK-based
residential developer, development manager, and property manager, is
pleased to announce that it has completed the transactions outlined in the
Strategic Update and Market Listing Announcement released on 2 October
2024. These transactions mark a significant step in the Company's ongoing
transformation.
Summary of Completed Transactions
The following transactions, which were initially outlined in the Company’s
2 October 2024 update, have now been completed:
1. Strategic Investment in One Victoria Project:
The Company has acquired a 30% stake in the One Victoria project in
Manchester for £3 million. The acquisition was funded by increasing
the existing shareholder loan facility.
2. Sale of Completed Inventory:
The Company has completed the sale of a portfolio of completed
residential and commercial properties, valued at £7 million, to OH UK
Holdings Limited (“OHUK”), a company connected with One Heritage
Development Limited (“OHPD”), including properties at Bank Street
(Sheffield), Lincoln House (Bolton), Oscar House (Manchester), and a
commercial unit at St Petersgate (Stockport).
With £2 million of debt linked to Oscar House as part of this transaction,
the net proceeds of the portfolio sale reduced from £7 million to £5
million and these proceeds will be utilised to reduce the existing
shareholder facility (“Existing Loan Facility”) from £14 million to £9
million.
3. Refinance of Existing Loan Facility: As previously announced on 2
October 2024 the Company entered into a new £7 million loan facility
with OHUK at an interest rate of 6%, i.e., lower than the previous
rate of 7%, such facility is now available following completion of the
property transactions outlined above. The loan has a repayment date of
31 December 2025, with an option to extend for up to 36 months. OHUK
is a related party, sharing the same majority shareholders as ZNT and
OHPD.
This new loan has been drawn down in full and used to partially repay the
Existing Facility. The balance of approximately £2 million of the
Existing Facility has been written off by OHPD as part of the
restructuring, demonstrating OHPD's commitment to ZNT’s success and
financial stability. The Existing Loan Facility has therefore been settled
in full and terminated.
Listing Status
As announced 12 November 2024, the Company has applied to the Financial
Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and London Stock Exchange plc (“LSE”) to delist
its ordinary shares from the Main Market of the LSE. The Company’s shares
will be cancelled from trading on the Main Market on 11 December 2024 and
the last day of trading on the Main Market will be at 4.30pm on 10
December 2024. The ordinary shares are then expected to commence trading
on the Access segment of the AQSE Growth Market (“Admission”) at 8:00 am
on 11 December 2024 under the ticker symbol ZNT, with its existing ISIN
number GB00BLF79495, SEDOL number BLF7949, and LEI number
2138008ZZUCCE4UZHY23.
