RNS Number:5738R SSL International PLC 03 November 2003 3 November 2003 DISPOSAL OF MARIGOLD INDUSTRIAL GLOVES FOR UP TO #22 MILLION AND APPOINTMENT OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SSL International plc ("SSL") announces that it has completed the disposal of its Marigold industrial gloves business for up to #22 million to Comasec SAS ("Comasec"), a French trade purchaser which is expanding its existing personal protective equipment range. #15 million was paid in cash at completion with #5 million payable in the form of a loan note. In addition, up to #2 million may be paid by way of earn out. Cash proceeds will be used to reduce group borrowings. The net book value of the assets sold to Comasec is approximately #23 million, which includes associated production facilities in Malaysia and Portugal. 1,122 SSL employees are transferring to Comasec. After taking account of the costs of redundancy, other provisions and goodwill written off, the transaction has generated a pre-tax loss of up to #15 million. SSL is retaining its Marigold consumer gloves business and as part of the transaction has entered into a contract manufacturing agreement under which Comasec will manufacture Marigold household gloves on SSL's behalf. Sales of Marigold industrial gloves in the year to 31st March 2003 of #33 million generated an operating profit of #4 million before interest and tax and before allocating shared group costs such as UK distribution costs, R&D, insurance and IT costs. Commenting, Brian Buchan, Chief Executive, said: "The sale of the Marigold Industrial Gloves division is another step in our strategy of simplifying the group's range of businesses so that SSL becomes focused on healthcare brands such as Durex and Scholl, the world's leading condom and footcare brands."
