PrimaryBid Offer
Big Yellow (LON: BYG), is pleased to announce a conditional
offer for subscription of new ordinary shares of 10 pence each in
the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") via PrimaryBid (the
"PrimaryBid Offer"). The Company is also conducting a placing of
new Ordinary Shares by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process
(the "Placing") as announced by the Company earlier today. The
issue price of the new Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the
PrimaryBid Offer and the Placing will be determined following the
close of the bookbuilding process.
The PrimaryBid Offer is conditional on the new Ordinary Shares
to be issued pursuant to the PrimaryBid Offer and the Placing being
admitted to the premium listing segment of the Official List of the
Financial Conduct Authority and admitted to trading on the main
market for listed securities of London Stock Exchange plc
("Admission"). Admission is expected to take place at 8.00 a.m. on
13 October 2023 . The PrimaryBid Offer will not be completed
without the Placing also being completed.
The Company will use the gross proceeds to build out the Group's
existing pipeline of stores.
Reason for the PrimaryBid Offer
While the Placing has been structured as a non-pre-emptive offer
within the Company's existing authorities from shareholders for
non-pre-emptive offers so as to minimise cost and time to
completion, the Company values its retail investor base and is
therefore pleased to provide retail investors with the opportunity
to participate in the PrimaryBid Offer in line with the Pre-Emption
Group guidelines.
Existing shareholders and new investors can access the
PrimaryBid Offer through PrimaryBid's website and on PrimaryBid's
app . The PrimaryBid app is available on the UK Apple App Store and
Google Play Store.
Investors can also participate through PrimaryBid's extensive
partner network of investment platforms, retail brokers and wealth
managers, subject to such partners' participation. Participating
partners include:
-- AJ Bell;
-- Hargreaves Lansdown; and
-- interactive investor.
Applications for new Ordinary Shares through participating
partners can be made from tax efficient savings vehicles such as
ISAs or SIPPs, as well as GIAs. Some partners may only accept
applications from existing shareholders.
After consideration of the various options available to it, the
Company believes that the separate PrimaryBid Offer is in the best
interests of shareholders, as well as wider stakeholders in the
Company.
The PrimaryBid Offer will open to investors resident and
physically located in the United Kingdom following the release of
this Announcement. The PrimaryBid Offer is expected to close at 8
p.m. on 10 October 2023 and may close early if it is
oversubscribed.
There is a minimum subscription amount of GBP250 per investor in
the PrimaryBid Offer.
The Company reserves the right to scale back any order at its
discretion. The Company and PrimaryBid reserve the right to reject
any application for subscription under the PrimaryBid Offer without
giving any reason for such rejection.
Investors who apply for new Ordinary Shares through PrimaryBid's
website or PrimaryBid's app will not be charged any fee or
commission by PrimaryBid. It is vital to note that once an
application for new Ordinary Shares has been made and accepted via
PrimaryBid, that application cannot be withdrawn.
Investors wishing to apply for new Ordinary Shares through their
investment platform, retail broker or wealth manager using their
ISA, SIPP or GIA should contact them for details of their terms and
conditions, process and any relevant fees or charges.
The new Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the PrimaryBid
Offer will be issued free of all liens, charges and encumbrances
and will, when issued and fully paid, rank pari passu in all
respects with the new Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the
Placing and the Company's existing Ordinary Shares.
