Acquisition of POPtv
RNS Number:1464I
Screen FX PLC
29 August 2006
Press Release 29 August 2006
ScreenFX plc
("ScreenFX" or "the Company")
Acquisition of competitor POPtv
ScreenFX plc (AIM: SFX), the digital advertising and communications specialist,
today announces the acquisition of POPtv Limited ("POPtv"), an independent
media sales company representing screen media in shopping malls, health and
retail environments, for a total consideration of #75,000, together with a
management earn-out linked to gross profit over the next four years.
Independently owned POPtv, which stands for 'Point of Purchase' TV, had a
turnover of #1.2 million at 31 March 2006. All POPtv senior management will
remain in position.
To demonstrate his confidence in the enlarged group, Mike Cottman, Non-Executive
Chairman of POPtv and its majority shareholder, will be subscribing for #500,000
of new shares in ScreenFX at a price of 1.8 pence per share. The admission of
the new shares is expected to become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 4 September 2006.
The new shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary
Shares in issue.
David Clark, Chief Executive Officer of ScreenFX, said: "The synergies that
exist between POPtv and our Mall and Health divisions make this an excellent
acquisition, as it allows the Group to remove a competitor and remain focused on
our core offerings whilst strengthening our overall market position. We are now
represented in more of the country's biggest shopping malls, and will
significantly increase our penetration into the growing public health sector."
ScreenFX adds the digital advertising and content contracts with Bullring
Birmingham, Manchester Arndale, Frenchgate Doncaster, Oracle Reading and FBDY
Fulham to its strong existing roster of shopping malls which includes The
Trafford Centre, Manchester; The MetroCentre, Newcastle-upon-Tyne; and,
Lakeside, Thurrock. As a result, the Company's MallFX division will increase
total reach from 360 million customers to over 450 million shoppers annually.
In the public health sector, the acquisition adds the advertising revenues from
The Life Channel currently screened in almost 900 GP surgeries nationwide, and
also, Baby TV (a specialist channel in antenatal waiting rooms in hospitals).
Mike Cottman, Non-Executive Chairman of POPtv, said: "In selecting ScreenFX as
our future partner we firmly believe we have chosen the business best placed to
capitalise on the growth in the out of home digital screen space. ScreenFX
offers a broad range of services which are ideal for the continued development
of our clients and our people."

Screen FX H1 pretax loss widens
AFX
LONDON (AFX) - Screen FX PLC, which provides digital screen media, incurred a pretax loss of 2.6 mln stg in the first half of 2006, widening from a loss of 1.6 mln the prior year after a period of significant investment.
Turnover for the half year almost doubled the previous full year at 1.02 mln stg, compared with 118,000 stg for the comparative half-year.
Chief executive Dave Clark said ScreenFX continues to make strong progress and has now established itself as a leading player in the digital out-of-home market place.
Through MallFX he said the group has built the premium digital screen network in 25 of the UK's 'super malls', whilst the TrainFX and HealthFX divisions have also established a foothold in two strategically important channels and he said the board believes these opportunities can add significant incremental revenue streams to the group in the medium term.
'The media industry now expects that the digital outdoor sector will see significant growth in the coming years and we are confident that the ScreenFX business is well placed to capitalise in this marketplace.'
The board also said today that the balance sheet in the short term requires strengthening and it is working towards securing additional sources of finance in order to develop the business to its full potential.
Having invested in building the group's networks and the organisational capacity that operations require, the board said it now has the infrastructure in place to support longer term profitable growth.
