TIDMFUZ8 RNS Number : 9961V Fuse 8 PLC 11 November 2010 +--------------+------------------------------------------------+ | Date: | 11 November 2010 | +--------------+------------------------------------------------+ | On behalf | Fuse 8 plc ('Fuse 8' or 'the Company') | | of: | | +--------------+------------------------------------------------+ | Embargoed | 0700hrs | | until: | | +--------------+------------------------------------------------+ Fuse 8 plc Acquisition of Delete Digital Marketing Limited Fuse 8 plc (AIM: FUZ8), the leading full service digital marketing agency, is pleased to announce the acquisition ("the Acquisition") of Delete Digital Marketing Limited ("Delete"). Delete is a full service digital agency based in central London, which provides services to a range of high quality consumer and business brands such as BaByliss, Decca Records and Red Bull. The Delete team is well established and has skills and clients that, the Directors believe, complement the existing Fuse 8 business. The acquisition of Delete fits the strategy outlined in the Company's Admission Document issued in June 2010. The Acquisition will increase the Company's revenues and skill-base, and more importantly provides a London platform from which the enlarged business can service existing London clients and look to win more clients in southern England. Information on Delete Delete was formed during 2010 by a number of digital agency assets being brought together into one entity but has many years of digital experience within its team. Delete is jointly owned by Jeremy Middleton and Graeme Burns, who are both non executive directors of Fuse 8. As Delete has been recently formed there is no historic turnover or profit. Based on unaudited management accounts at 30 September 2010 Delete had negligible net assets and in the quarter to 30 September 2010 achieved sales of approximately GBP150,000 and profit before tax of approximately GBP30,000. Delete currently has six employees. The Directors anticipate that the Acquisition will be earnings enhancing within the first 12 months of ownership. Terms of the Acquisition The consideration for the acquisition is to be satisfied entirely by the issue of new ordinary shares of 2 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). The number of new Ordinary Shares to be issued at completion is 1,250,000, representing approximately GBP400,000. Completion of the Acquisition is expected to take place on 1 December 2010 and application will be made for the 1,250,000 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. It is expected that admission will be effective and trading will commence on 1 December 2010. Related Party Transaction Jeremy Middleton and Graeme Burns who each own 50% of Delete are related parties for the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies. The Independent Directors (being all directors excluding Jeremy Middleton and Graeme Burns), having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser finnCap, consider that the proposed transaction is fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned. Following the Acquisition, Jeremy Middleton and Graeme Burns will each own 625,000 Ordinary Shares, representing 5% of the enlarged issued share capital and the Company will have 12,600,000 Ordinary Shares in issue, all carrying voting rights. The above figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest in, Fuse 8 under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. As the Acquisition is of a non-cash asset from Directors with a value of more than GBP5,000 then, under Companies Act legislation, it requires the approval of shareholders at a general meeting. A notice to shareholders is being sent calling this general meeting on 30 November 2010. The Company has received irrevocable undertakings from the three Executive Directors of the Company, representing 72% of the ordinary share capital, to vote in favour of the Acquisition. Nigel Hunter CEO of Fuse 8 plc said "We are delighted that Delete is joining the Fuse 8 group. Delete is an impressive team with similar skills and mindset to that of Fuse 8. The Board feels that by successfully integrating the business, the enlarged Group will benefit from greater expertise and having a London operation."
