As stated by THG in recent RNS's........Specifically, capital expenditure will reduce to c. £20m pa (FY 2024 pre Demerger guidance: £100m to £110m) and cash lease costs will reduce to c. £22m pa. Future cash generation will facilitate a measured reduction in gross and net leverage, with RemainCo targeting continued progression to a neutral net cash / net debt position.
The cash proceeds of £103 million from Claremont disposal will contribute towards reducing net leverage and borrowing costs in line with THG's capital allocation strategy targeting a neutral net cash / net debt position...Net debt of £321.4m (H1 2024: £350.5m), reduces to c.£220m proforma for the Claremont Ingredients disposal. Following the refinancing and THG Ingenuity demerger, gross debt REDUCED by £374m..
Post a demerger, the Group would consist of THG Beauty and THG Nutrition, two globally leading consumer businesses, which are highly profitable, cash generative and capable of paying dividends...."
