Completion of Capital Reduction
Bonhill (AIM: BONH), a leading B2B media business specialising in three key areas: Business Information, Live Events and Data & Insight, is pleased to announce that, further to its announcements on 25 March 2019 and 9 April 2019, the Capital Reduction was approved yesterday by the Court. The Court Order confirming the Capital Reduction, and a statement of capital approved by the Court, were then registered with the Registrar of Companies and, accordingly, the Capital Reduction is now effective.
The purpose of the Capital Reduction is to create distributable reserves, which will allow the Company to pay dividends in the future. It has been effected by cancelling the balances standing to the credit of the Company's share premium account and capital redemption reserve.
There is no change in the number of the Company's Ordinary Shares in issue, or their nominal value, as a result of the Capital Reduction, which was described in the Circular sent to Shareholders on 25 March 2019 and approved by Shareholders at the General Meeting held on 9 April 2019.
Capitalised terms used herein have the same meanings as set out in the Circular, which is available at the Company's website (www.bonhillplc.com).
