THE STANLEY GIBBONS GROUP PLC

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 13 January 2016

THE STANLEY GIBBONS GROUP PLC ("the Company" or "the Group")

The Directors note the recent movement in the Company's share price and would like to update on current intentions for funding the business.

In response to a number of unsolicited enquiries from shareholders and other investors, the Board is considering a number of fundraising alternatives to reinforce the working capital position prior to the year ended 31 March 2016. However, whilst an equity fundraising is one option potentially available to the Board, the discount to the Group's net asset value at which any such fundraising would likely be priced could make it a relatively unattractive route to alternatives under consideration. The Directors will update the market on the progress of these considerations in due course.
