Update on the Kurt Salmon escrow funds
The Group and Wavestone have agreed to extend the escrow period
for the remaining EUR1.65m under discussion until 7 March 2019 as
negotiations continue.
As announced on 1 October 2018, the Group and Wavestone agreed
to extend the period of escrow for approximately EUR1.65 million
(approximately GBP1.5 million) of the second tranche of EUR4
million held under escrow which guarantee certain contingent
liabilities relating to the disposal of parts of the Kurt Salmon
business to Wavestone in 2016 (the "KS Escrow Funds") by a further
2 months to 7 December 2018. This was in order to allow
negotiations over the treatment of the potential indemnification
claims raised in Wavestone's further letter of claim of 26 June
2018 to be finalised.
The Group continues to assess the merits of these further claims
and to discuss the appropriate treatment with Wavestone. As these
discussions are still continuing, the Group and Wavestone have
agreed to extend the period of escrow by a further three months to
7 March 2019 so as to allow the negotiations to continue.
The Board remains confident as to the Group's overall position
in terms of the claims raised to date by Wavestone, and so expects
to secure the release of the remaining outstanding KS Escrow Funds
progressively. As previously announced, the Board believes a degree
of uncertainty still exists as to the timing of the remaining KS
Escrow Funds being released to the Group and it is now clear that
this uncertainty will continue into the first half of 2019.
The Board will provide further updates on these matters as
appropriate.
