AF has plans for this..
It is anticipated that the cash to be received by the Company will be used to acquire another business(es) which the directors believe will deliver greater returns for investors.
Change of Name
To reflect the new direction of the Company, the Board is proposing to change the name of the Company. Under the Companies Act 2006, a change of name requires the passing of a special resolution of Shareholders at a general meeting. Therefore a special resolution will be put to the General Meeting to approve the change of the Company's name to:
"Abal Group plc"
The change of name will become effective once the Registrar of Companies has issued a new certificate of incorporation on the change of name. This is expected to occur on or around 31 January 2019. The tradeable instrument display mnemonic ("TIDM") of the Company is expected to change to AIM: ABAL effective from 7.00 a.m. on 31 January 2019.
Recommendation
The Board considers that the Disposal and change of name of the Company is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolutions to be proposed at the General Meeting as they intend to do in respect of the Ordinary Shares which they control.
General Meeting
The Company is arranging for a Circular to be sent to all shareholders which includes the Notice of General Meeting to be held at 9.15 a.m. on 28 January 2019 at the offices of Marriott Harrison LLP, 11 Staple Inn, London, WC1V 7QH.
