TIDMFAN RNS Number : 0425H First Artist Corporation PLC 12 February 2010 First Artist Corporation plc ("First Artist" or the "Company" or the "Group") Disposal of Entertainment Management Business First Artist Corporation plc (AIM:FAN) is pleased to announce that it has completed the sale of the business and assets of its artist representation agency, First Artist Management ("FAM"), to leading talent management business, James Grant Media ("JGM"), for a total consideration of GBP200,000, less a post completion working capital adjustment of up to GBP25,000, satisfied wholly in cash. The net proceeds of sale will be used for the reduction of debt. FAM (formerly known as N.C.I. Management) was acquired by the Group in July 2006 from Nicola Ibison, who has continued to lead the agency. The sale follows the Company's announcement in June 2009 that it was exploring its strategic options with regard to its non-core businesses, and the announcement on 2 February 2010 of the disposal of Optimal Wealth Management Limited. In the financial year ended 31 August 2009 FAM produced an operating profit of GBP3,942 on a turnover of GBP535,819. Its net assets at that date were GBP17,823. JGM, as part of James Grant Group Limited, is a leading provider of management and professional services to clients within the entertainment, music and sports sectors, and as such represents an ideal fit for FAM. Commenting on the disposal, Jon Smith, Chief Executive of First Artist, said: "The sale of FAM is another step towards our stated goal of reshaping of the Group as a highly focused media business, and reducing debt. We also believe that the move to JGM will provide significant opportunities and benefits for the agency and its clients. We extend our thanks to Nicola Ibison and her team for their contribution over the last three and a half years, and we wish them and JGM all the very best for the future". Neil Rodford, Chief Executive of JGM, said: "We are delighted to have acquired this business from First Artist. We have a long and successful association with Jon and his team. Today's move will see James Grant Media extend its management reach by establishing new genres of television representation. We wish First Artist every success for the future as they seek to concentrate on their core business." - ends - For further information: +------------------------------------------------+--------------------------+ | First Artist Corporation plc | tel: 020 7993 | | Jon Smith, Chief Executive | 0000 | | Julianne Coutts, Director & Company Secretary | www.firstartist.com | | | | +------------------------------------------------+--------------------------+ | Daniel Stewart & Company plc, Nominated | tel: 020 7776 | | Adviser and Broker | 6550 | | Stewart Dickson/Graham Webster | www.danielstewart.co.uk | | | | +------------------------------------------------+--------------------------+ Notes to Editors: First Artist Corporation plc was admitted to AIM in 2002.
