Sale and leaseback of Haslingden office premises

Driver Group PLC, the global professional services consultancy to construction and engineering industries is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Jetglobal Limited for the sale of the freehold property interest in the Group's central administration offices located in Haslingden, Lancashire and the immediate leaseback of these premises.

The cash consideration receivable by Driver at completion on 20 April, 2018 was GBP1.65 million. The sale will give rise to a small profit on disposal for the Group, before transaction costs.

The new lease is for an initial term up to 2(nd) January 2026 at a fixed annual rent of GBP210,000 with a current annual cash cost to Driver of approximately GBP105,000 after adjusting for rental income receivable from a sub-tenant. The proceeds of the sale will improve the Group's overall net cash position.

Gordon Wilkinson, Chief Executive Officer of Driver, said: "we are delighted to be able to announce the agreement of the terms of this transaction which represents the final strategic action we committed to implement in February 2017 at the time of the equity raise and refinancing."
