Result of Placing

Capitalised terms used in this announcement (this "Announcement") have the meanings given to them in the announcement made on 18 February 2019 regarding the proposed placing (the "Placing Announcement"), unless the context provides otherwise.

Michelmersh, the specialist brick manufacturer, is pleased to announce that further to the Placing Announcement earlier today, the bookbuild has been successful and is now closed. The Company has successfully placed 5,555,556 Ordinary Shares at a Placing Price of 90 pence per share, raising gross proceeds of £5.0m to part-fund the acquisition of Floren.

The Placing Price represents a discount of approximately 0.6% per cent. to the closing mid-market price on 15 February 2019. The Placing was supported by existing as well as new shareholders and was conducted through an accelerated bookbuild process. The Placing was oversubscribed. Canaccord Genuity acted as Nomad and Broker in relation to the Placing.

The Placing Shares represent approximately 6.4 per cent. of the existing issued share capital of the Company.

The Placing Shares will, when issued, rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares. Application will be made for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM on 18 February 2019 and admission is expected to take place on or around 22 February 2019. Completion of the Placing is conditional on, inter alia, admission of the Placing Shares.

Following the issue of the Placing Shares, the Company's issued share capital consists of 92,041,669 Ordinary Shares, with voting rights. This figure may be used by shareholders of the Company as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
