Update on Return of Capital

 

Further to previous announcements made by the Group, the Board of Centaur announces that it is making good progress with respect to the return of capital to shareholders, taking into account what funds the Group will require for ongoing working capital purposes. The Board believes, having discussed with shareholders, that a tender offer will be the most appropriate method for returning capital to shareholders considering the relative costs, complexity and timeframes of the possible methods available, as well as the likely tax treatment for, and equality of treatment of, shareholders.

The process of determining the split of capital between a return to shareholders and that to be retained within the Group is well progressed and the Board currently anticipates that up to £64 million should initially be returned to shareholders. Should a tender offer be the method utilised to return that capital to shareholders, the Board anticipates that the tender price will be 48.0 pence per Centaur ordinary share.

The Board expects that the return of capital will be finalised before the end of 2025 and a further announcement containing details of the return of capital will be made in due course.
