Photo-Me International plc
('Photo‐Me' or 'the Group')

Sale of Head Office Site  

Photo-Me, the instant service equipment group, has today exchanged contracts with Shanly Homes Limited (SHL) for the sale of the freehold of its head office buildings in Bookham, Surrey for a consideration of £2.5 million.  The land being sold comprises two buildings on a site of approximately 0.16 hectares.

SHL will pay Photo-Me £2.5 million in cash on completion, which is due to take place in early June 2017.  The book value of the land being sold is £0.1 million and therefore the profit on the sale, before costs, will be approximately £2.4 million.

This disposal is part of the Group's review of its property portfolio in order to group the activities of its head office and UK operations, including the newly formed Retail business, into one location.   This strategy will rationalise the Group's property footprint and will enable it to achieve further efficiencies in its UK operations.
