Purchase Order from AMCO Group
Pressfit Holdings plc (AIM: PFIT), a manufacturer and distributor of stainless and carbon steel pipe connectors, announces that the Company has accepted an order of US$46,147 (approximately £29,000) for 24,501 pressfittings (the "Order") from AMCO ENGINEERING (H.K.) Co., Ltd. ("AMCO Engineering").
The Order is a 'non-manufactured order', whereby Pressfit Holdings will use its administrative and logistical infrastructure to export pressfittings which have been manufactured by domestic third party manufacturers.
Pressfit Holdings' Director and substantial shareholder, Ng Siu Wai ("Eric Ng"), has a 70% holding in AMCO Engineering. AMCO Engineering is a member of the group of companies which are defined in the Company's admission document dated 28 July 2014 as the "AMCO Group". The AMCO Group is a group of international companies engaged in the research, manufacture and distribution of stainless steel, carbon steel and copper pressfittings, in respect of which Eric Ng is directly or indirectly a shareholder and/or a director and/or has an ongoing business relationship.
Eric Ng is a Director of Pressfit Holdings and is also an indirect major shareholder in Pressfit Holdings, by virtue of him being the sole shareholder and director of GXM (AMCOPRESS) GROUP CO., LIMITED, which owns 27.99% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company. AMCO Engineering is deemed to be related party of the Company, due to Eric Ng's 70% holding in this company.
The acceptance of the Order constitutes a related party transaction for the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies (the "AIM Rules") and is required to be announced under the AIM Rules. The Company's Board members who are not involved in the transaction and are therefore independent consider, having consulted with, the Company's nominated adviser, Daniel Stewart & Company Plc, that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as its shareholders are concerned.
As referenced in the Company's interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2014, which were announced on 30 September 2014, the Company continues to work to increase revenues, sales leads and new client interest, particularly with its partner companies and distributors.
