Talks not exclusive

Photo-Scan PLC said it has recently received an unsolicited approach regarding a possible offer for the company, but has decided that it is inappropriate to progress those discussions on an exclusive basis. Its shares jumped 10.2% to 145p.

The board said it is now investigating the possibility that other potential strategic partners may be interested in acquiring Photo-Scan in order to accelerate the further development of the company through exploitation of the current market opportunities available.

The board said it remains committed to its long-term strategy of building shareholder value whether as an independent company or as part of a larger group.
