Notes to Editors:
Rockpool Acquisitions Plc, a Special Purpose Acquisition Company
based in Northern Ireland, whose shares have been admitted to the
Official List of the London Stock Exchange by way of a Standard
Listing, was formed to undertake the acquisition of a company or
business headquartered, or materially based in Northern Ireland
with the valuation of up to GBP20 million. Once the first
acquisition is completed, the Company may consider further
complementary acquisitions.
Rockpool will focus on targeting an acquisition with the
potential to grow to a substantial market capitalisation or, in due
course, to be attractive to an industry or financial buyer. The
objective of the Company following completion of an acquisition
will be to inject additional capital to facilitate the expansion of
that business.
The Directors are of Northern Irish origin and have over 60
years' combined experience of the local market. Between them they
have considerable industry, acquisitions, legal, public markets and
financial and operational experience, with good access to potential
targets. The Directors believe that Rockpool's ability to provide
access to significant amounts of additional capital will be the key
element in being able to attract a suitable target for acquisition.
It is likely that the acquisition, which Rockpool aims to make
within twelve months of Admission, will be treated as a Reverse
Takeover requiring the publication of a prospectus and an
application to be re-admitted to the Official List of the London
Stock Exchange.
Access to capital is a real issue for many fast-growing Northern
Ireland businesses. The Directors believe that there will be a
number of businesses attracted to the prospect of raising capital
through a listed cash-shell vehicle and will actively approach
Rockpool seeking a reverse takeover.
