Update on proposed acquisition of 2mee Limited
Further to the announcement of 17 August 2023, the Board of GCG is pleased to
announce an update of progress in respect of its proposed acquisition of 2Mee
Limited ("2Mee") (the "Proposed Acquisition"), which will be classified as a
Reverse Take Over ("RTO") under the Listing Rules and accordingly, GCG will
apply for the re-admission of its shares to the Official List and the Main
Market of the London Stock Exchange.
Update on commercial progress by 2Mee
The Board of GCG is pleased to report continued commercial progress within
2mee, both in terms of customer engagement and the recruitment of personnel
that have appropriate experience to ensure that 2Mee can take commercial
advantage of its patented proprietary software. Specifically:
· 2Mee has bolstered its management team through the addition of a
new CRO who has extensive experience, having worked for Wowcher, Living Social
and TrustPilot. In addition, 2Mee has employed a new CTO to the business who
is extremely experienced in SaaS system architectures having previously
designed, developed and deployed platforms for large organisations such as
webuyanycar.com and Betfred.
· The HoloMessage® product is exceeding management expectations as a
market disruptor. A recent campaign for a tier one gaming company delivered a
340% increase in engagement over its traditional methods.
· As part of 2Mee's drive into new verticals it has recently signed a
contract with SportsPro Limited, which is the licensee holder for global
sports giant Hummel for the UK, ROI Ireland, Australia and NZ. It is the
intention that 2Mee's HoloMessage® product will be deployed across Hummel's
ecommerce sites within these territories.
Progress on the Proposed Transaction
Significant progress has been made in completing the public and supporting
documents required, pursuant to the Proposed Acquisition. The Company
continues to work with its advisers to complete the preparation of these
documents and hopes to be in position to announce the RTO, and for trading in
its shares to be restored, over the coming months.
The consideration payable by GCG to the shareholders of 2Mee will be less that
previously indicated and the Board of GCG currently expects that the implied
pre-money valuation for the enlarged group, being GCG as enlarged by the
Proposed Acquisition, will be in the range of £3.8 million to £4.2 million.
There can be no certainty that the Proposed Acquisition will take place and it
remains subject to, amongst other things completion of a fund raising.
Appointment of Joint Broker
The Company confirms the appointment of Oberon Capital, a trading name of
Oberon Investments Limited, as its Joint Broker, with immediate effect.
A further announcement will be made in due course.
