Open Offer of 41,446,089 New Ordinary Shares at 8 pence per New
Ordinary Share on the basis of 1 New Ordinary Share for every 4
Existing Ordinary Shares
and Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting
1. Introduction
The Company announced on 14 July 2017 that it proposes to raise
GBP3.3 million (GBP3.2 million net of expenses) by way of a
conditional Open Offer. The Open Offer will be fully underwritten
by First Eastern Holdings.
In order to show their support for the ongoing development of
the business, certain Directors have irrevocably undertaken to
subscribe for in aggregate 699,999 Open Offer Shares.
2. Background to and Reasons for the Fundraising
As highlighted in our 2016 Preliminary results, announced on 30
March 2017, we entered this year finally positioned with a stable
platform from which we were able to explore ways of adding
shareholder value. Our strategic plan, whilst focused upon ways to
add value to the core business, remained both defensively
positioned and cash constrained as we awaited the outcome of the
Brexit vote last year and, more recently, the unexpected UK and
Maltese general elections earlier this month. We have made
demonstrable progress in growing EBITDA from our owned marinas,
which have been a key contributor to compound growth of 12 per
cent. per annum in gross profit since 2013. The Board believes
that, as marina revenue streams continue to be re-evaluated
following the return of development interest in the sector, the
time is right to adopt a more expansive strategy, particularly at
Grand Harbour Marina, Malta ("GHM").
Accordingly we are announcing, today, a fund-raising of GBP3.3
million gross (GBP3.2 million net), by way of a fully underwritten
open offer to shareholders of 41,446,089 new ordinary shares, at an
offer price of 8 pence per share, pro rata to their existing
shareholdings. This represents a premium of 33 per cent. to the
closing share price on 13 July 2017.
This follows the announcement to the Maltese Stock Exchange on
27 June 2017, by GHM, of regulatory approval for the issuance of a
listed bond to raise EUR15 million gross, at a coupon of 4.5 per
cent., of which a maximum of EUR11 million will be utilised to
redeem the existing listed GHM, 7 per cent. coupon 2017 - 2020 bond
(the "Bond Issuance"). It is proposed that the net proceeds of the
Bond Issuance will be utilised to harness the development potential
of GHM, where we have over a decade's history of consistently
improving marina performance, and is a location which we believe
has the potential to become a premium destination of choice for
super yachts in the Mediterranean.
The Company will conduct a further strategic review of total
operating expenses, which, notwithstanding the fact that these are
only showing a small increase over 2013 levels in constant currency
terms, demand further attention in the context of the post Brexit
trading environment. Our target is to achieve additional cost
saving benefits by the end of 2017.
These measures are designed to drive liquidity into our existing
portfolio of marina projects and development assets and we remain
confident that this will ultimately allow us to achieve our core
objective of releasing the latent potential evident within the
business for the benefit of shareholders.
Current Trading and Prospects
The Company's audited 2016 results, as released on 30 March
2017, demonstrated that the Company has made good progress since
2012 and is now a stronger business with reduced losses and strong
underlying revenues. Highlights for the period included:
-- Sales of EUR10.2 million from underlying operating businesses
(2015: EUR11.2 million). Excluding the EUR1.7 million revenue
impact of the one-off Yas Marina ("Yas") termination fee and the
Yas recharged expenses in 2015, revenues grew by 6.4per cent. Under
international accounting standards, reported group revenues are
EUR7.6 million (2015: EUR9.1 million)
-- The Group's 2015 results included EUR1.7 million of revenues
from recharged expenses and the termination fee relating to Yas
with an associated EBITDA impact of EUR0.7 million which were not
repeated in 2016
-- Total operating expenses before depreciation reduced to
EUR5.1 million (2015: EUR5.2 million). At constant exchange rates,
operating expenses show a small increase over 2013 levels, some of
which is turnover related
-- Before a EUR1.0 million impairment charge in 2016 in relation
to Port Louis and excluding the EUR0.7 million benefit of the Yas
termination fee from the 2015 results, the loss before tax reduced
by EUR0.5 million to EUR0.7 million (2015: EUR1.2 million). After
the impairment charge, 2016 loss before tax was EUR1.7 million
-- Group cash balances of EUR1.3 million at 31 December 2016 (2015: EUR3.0 million)
-- Net asset value per share 15.4 euro cents (December 2015:
16.5 euro cents) with 165.8 million shares in issue (2015: 165.8
million)
The Company continues to make progress with its strategy and the
Board believes that the Company is now well positioned to develop
the opportunities that will arise from today's uncertain world and
to realise the inherent value in the business.
4. Use of Proceeds
The net proceeds from the Fundraising will be used by the
Company for general working capital purposes across the Company and
the Group.
The Fundraising will, thus, allow the Company, no longer as a
distressed potential seller of assets but as a financially sound
and stable business, to optimise value through the execution of its
strategic plan to enable the Company to develop and reposition its
assets.
5. Open Offer
The Company is proposing to issue 41,446,089 New Ordinary Shares
through the Open Offer at an Offer Price of 8 pence per share,
raising in aggregate GBP3.3 million (GBP3.2 million net of
expenses). The Offer Price of 8 pence represents a premium of 33
per cent. to the Closing Price of 6 pence per Ordinary Share on 13
July 2017 (being the last trading day prior to the announcement of
the Open Offer) and a premium of 33 per cent. to the average
Closing Price over the 30 days prior to the announcement of the
Open Offer of 6 pence per Ordinary Share.
The Open Offer is being made to Qualifying Shareholders on the
register on the Record Date. The Open Offer provides Qualifying
Shareholders with the option to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares
at a price of 8 pence per New Ordinary Share. Each Qualifying
Shareholder is entitled to apply for his Open Offer Entitlement of
New Ordinary Shares (which is calculated pro rata to his holding of
Ordinary Shares in the Company on the Record Date).
First Eastern Holdings is conditionally underwriting the Open
Offer in full (other than in respect of the Firm Commitment Shares)
by undertaking in the Underwriting Agreement that it will subscribe
for any New Ordinary Shares not taken up by Qualifying
Shareholders. Accordingly, the Company will issue 41,446,089 New
Ordinary Shares to raise gross proceeds of GBP3.3 million.
Any participation in the Open Offer by Shareholders will reduce
First Eastern Holdings' underwriting commitment. In order to show
their support for the ongoing development of the business, certain
Directors have irrevocably undertaken to subscribe for in aggregate
699,999 New Ordinary Shares.
Qualifying Shareholders are not entitled to take up any New
Ordinary Shares in excess of their Open Offer Entitlement.
Qualifying Shareholders are invited to apply for New Ordinary
Shares under the Open Offer at a price of 8 pence per New Ordinary
Share, payable in full on application and free of all expenses, pro
rata to their existing shareholdings on the basis of:
1 New Ordinary Share for every 4 Existing Ordinary Shares
held at the Record Date. Open Offer Entitlements of Qualifying
Shareholders will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of
New Ordinary Shares. Fractional entitlements which would have
otherwise arisen will not be issued.
The Open Offer is subject to the satisfaction, amongst other
matters, of the following conditions on or before 2 August 2017 (or
such later date being not later than 16 August 2017, as the Company
may decide):
-- the passing of the Resolution;
-- Admission becoming effective 8.00 a.m. on 2 August 2017 (or
such later time or date not being later than 8.00 a.m. on 16 August
2017); and
-- the Underwriting Agreement becoming unconditional in all respects.
The New Ordinary Shares will, when issued and fully paid, rank
pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares,
including the right to receive all dividends and other
distributions declared, made or paid after the date of
Admission.
Settlement and dealings
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the
New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. It is
expected that such Admission will become effective and that
dealings will commence on 2 August 2017.
Overseas Shareholders
Certain Overseas Shareholders may not be permitted to subscribe
for New Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Open Offer.
6. The Underwriting Agreement
The Company and First Eastern Holdings entered into the
Underwriting Agreement dated 14 July 2017. Pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement, First Eastern Holdings has agreed to
subscribe for, or procure the subscription of, the number of
Ordinary Shares which are not validly taken up by Shareholders
pursuant to the Open Offer. The Company has agreed to pay First
Eastern Holdings a commission of such amount as equates to 2 per
cent. of the value of the New Ordinary Shares (other than the Firm
Commitment Shares) at the Issue Price.
The obligations of First Eastern Holdings under the Underwriting
Agreement are conditional upon Admission becoming effective on or
before 8.00 a.m. on 2 August 2017 (or such later date and/or time
as the Company and First Eastern Holdings may agree, being no later
than 8.00 a.m. on 16 August 2017).
The Company has given standard warranties to First Eastern
Holdings relating to the Company (the "Warranties") which will be
repeated on completion of the Underwriting Agreement. First Eastern
Holdings may terminate the Underwriting Agreement at any time prior
to Admission if there is a material adverse change in the financial
or trading position or prospects of the Group or if any of the
Warranties was or becomes materially untrue, inaccurate or
misleading when made.
7. The Concert Party, The Takeover Code and The Underwriting
First Eastern Holdings became the largest Shareholder in the
Company in August 2011, through its subsidiary company FE Marina
Investments, which made an investment of approximately GBP4.2
million for a 25 per cent. stake in the Company by a subscription
of Ordinary Shares, coupled with the formation of a joint venture
company to assist in the development of the Company's business in
Asia Pacific, one of the world's fastest growing marina
markets.
In May 2013, FE Marina Investments subscribed for a further
15,381,528 Ordinary Shares and First Eastern Holdings subscribed
for 33,066,759 Ordinary Shares pursuant to the 2013 Open Offer.
In June 2014, FE Marina Investments subscribed for 5,999,375
Ordinary Shares and First Eastern Holdings subscribed for
13,856,811 Ordinary Shares in the 2014 Open Offer.
FE Marina Investments and First Eastern Holdings currently own
41,441,807 and 57,107,867 Ordinary Shares being 25.00 per cent. and
34.45 per cent. of the Existing Ordinary Shares respectively,
giving them a combined holding of 59.44 per cent. On the basis of
the existing ownership structure of First Eastern Holdings and FE
Marina Investments, the Panel considers both companies to be under
the ultimate control of Mr Victor Chu. Accordingly, since the
aggregate shareholdings of First Eastern Holdings and FE Marina
Investments exceed 50 per cent. of the Existing Ordinary Shares,
each of First Eastern Holdings and FE Marina Investments is
entitled to acquire further Ordinary Shares without being required
to make a mandatory offer pursuant to the Takeover Code. Therefore,
any acquisition of Ordinary Shares by First Eastern Holdings or FE
Marina Investments under the Open Offer or pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement will not incur any further obligations on
their part to make a mandatory offer pursuant to the Takeover Code.
In the event that First Eastern Holdings acquires all of the Open
Offer Shares (excluding the Firm Commitment Shares attributable to
the Directors) pursuant to their obligations under the Underwriting
Agreement the aggregate shareholding of First Eastern Holdings and
FE Marina Investments would be 137,998,502 ordinary shares being
66.59 per cent. of the Enlarged Issued Share Capital.
First Eastern Holdings and Mr Victor Chu are important partners
for the Company as it seeks to use the knowledge and relationships
that First Eastern companies have developed over the last 20 years
of operating and investing in China and the Far East. However,
First Eastern Holdings is not only important to the growth of the
Company's China and Far East activities but, since becoming
(through FE Marina Investments) the Company's largest Shareholder
in August 2011, it has provided significant strategic assistance
and offered financial support when it was approached to assist with
the current Fundraising.
The Board believes that the increased investment by First
Eastern Holdings is a very clear confirmation of its continued
belief in both the opportunities in China and the Far East and also
in the prospects for the Company generally.
First Eastern Holdings, FE Marina Investments, Mr Victor Chu, Ms
Elizabeth Kan and Mr Clive Whiley are, under the Takeover Code,
parties acting in concert with each other.
8. Directors' intentions under the Open Offer
Certain Directors, being Roger Lewis and Clive Whiley, have
irrevocably undertaken to make applications to take up their Open
Offer Entitlements and will make applications to subscribe in
aggregate, for at least 699,999 New Ordinary Shares, as detailed in
the table below:

Company's registered office at Bordage House, Le Bordage, St. Peter
Port, Guernsey GY1 1BU.
10. Related Party Transactions
First Eastern Holdings and FE Marina Investments are considered
to be related parties of the Company as defined by the AIM Rules,
holding 34.45 per cent. and 25.00 per cent. of the voting rights of
the Company respectively. The Underwriting Agreement is therefore a
related party transaction pursuant to Rule 13 of the AIM Rules.

nominated adviser, finnCap, consider that the terms of the
Underwriting Agreement is fair and reasonable insofar as the
Shareholders are concerned.
11. Recommendation
