Claim Settlement

The board of Clear Leisure is pleased to announce that, following the case management conference at the High Court on 9 November 2018 referred to in the Company’s notification of 13 November 2018, a full and final settlement has been reached with the defendants in the sum of £1.15 million (before legal and insurance expenses of nearly £300,000) payable in cash to Clear Leisure.

Francesco Gardin, CEO and Executive Chairman of Clear Leisure, commented, “We are very pleased to have settled this case before the planned court hearing next year and for a sum which we believe reflects the appropriate outcome of our original investment, under the original share purchase agreement.

“This is the Company’s second successful asset disposal since the new board was appointed in 2015, and we will continue to prosecute strenuously our other investments where we believe the chance of achieving a positive financial settlement is high.”
