Jaywing plc
("Jaywing" or "the Company")
Increase in Loan Facility
28 May 2024
Jaywing Plc (AIM: JWNG), the marketing and data science business specialising in integrated marketing and risk and data consulting announces an increase in its Loan Facility.
As announced earlier this month the company recently entered discussions with its two lenders, DSC Investment Holdings Limited and Lombard Odier Asset Management (Europe) Limited*, both of which are represented on the Board, regarding increasing the existing facility it has in place with them.
The Company announces that it has increased its existing loan facility ("the Loan Facility") with the Company's two lenders, DSC Investment Holdings Limited and Lombard Odier Asset Management (Europe) Limited* (jointly, "the Lenders") by £1,030,000, which includes an arrangement fee of £30,000 payable to the Lenders, taking the total facility to £10,796,500. The new funds, which will be used for working capital purposes, are available in two equal tranches, the first of which has been drawn and the second is due to be drawn, subject to the Lenders' consent, in June 2024.
Related party transaction
The additional capital being lent by the Lenders is being provided on the same terms as the existing Loan Facility. As each of the Lenders, being DSC Investment Holdings Limited ("DSC" and Lombard Odier Asset Management (Europe) Limited ("Lombard Odier"), are considered related parties because of their respective shareholdings in the Company, the provision of this capital by entities associated with each of them is deemed to comprise related party transactions for the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies. The Independent Director (being Christopher Hughes) considers, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, SPARK Advisory Partners Limited, that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
*acting in its capacity as discretionary investment manager or sub-adviser for and on behalf of certain funds and accounts managed by it and/or as agent of Lombard Odier Asset Management (USA) Corp (LOAM USA) acting in its capacity as discretionary investment manager for and on behalf of certain funds and accounts managed by it ("Lombard Odier").
