Bagir Group Limited

("Bagir" or the "Company")

Result of fundraising

Bagir (AIM: BAGR), a designer, creator and provider of innovative tailoring, is pleased to announce that, following its earlier announcement, the Company has conditionally raised gross proceeds of $8.5 million (GBP6.4 million) through the successful subscription of 56,048,000 Subscription Shares and placing of 127,188,754 Placing Shares, in aggregate 183,236,754 New Ordinary Shares at a price of 3.5 pence per New Ordinary Share. The Placing has been arranged by N+1 Singer.

The net proceeds of the Fundraising (being approximately US$8.1 million) will be used to repay the Company's lenders, Bank Leumi and Discount Bank, with the balance being used as working capital to support the Group's business operations.

The Fundraising is conditional on, inter alia, the passing of the Fundraising Resolutions to be proposed at the Extraordinary General Meeting to be held at the offices of N+1 Singer, One Bartholomew Lane London EC2N 2AX. The circular (the "Circular"), which provides further details of the Fundraising and includes a notice convening the Extraordinary General Meeting, is expected to be sent to shareholders and be available on the Company's website in the coming few days.

Eran Itzhak, CEO of Bagir, commented:

"This fundraising gives the Company the ability to complete the restructuring agreement with the Lenders and, in so doing, to clear all outstanding bank debt (approximately $21 million) and is the most significant stage of our turnaround plan to date. Going forward, our balance sheet is strengthened considerably and this enables us to look to the future with confidence as we seek to grow the Company. I would like to thank our customers, shareholders and employees for their continuing support."
