By September, what a coup, I wonder what the share price will start at how quick it will rise and where we will be this time next year? if it come off.
Sorted’s unaudited management accounts for the year ended September 30, 2022 reveal that the company generated revenues in that year of £6.4m and a loss before tax of around £14.5m. At the same time Sorted had assets of £32.4m.
Location Sciences has clearly seen enough in the business and its numbers to want to buy it.
If the proposed acquisition proceeds, it’s intended that the existing subscribers, including shareholders of Sorted, will be given the opportunity to participate in a cash subscription for up to £5m of new shares in Location Sciences to seek to align their interests with those of existing Location Sciences shareholders.
The planned acquisition would constitute a reverse takeover under AIM rules and is subject to due diligence and satisfactory negotiations.
It’s hoped the deal for Sorted, which currently employs 96 full-time staff, will be finalised by September but the implications for other exciting tech companies will reverberate for a lot longer.
