Plymouth Airport firm Sutton Harbour Holdings up for sale
n a pre-close announcement and strategic review, ahead of publication of the AIM-listed firm's annual results, SHH announced the "commencement of offer period."
Company directors said SHH has "significant future growth potential", highlighting profitable, well-invested annuity trading activities underpinned by a strong existing asset base and significant potential for further development around the Sutton Harbour.
But the statement said that even with the firm's recent successful refinancing, its potential remains "constrained by its existing capital structure".
The statement said: "As such, the board has determined it is appropriate to evaluate alternative opportunities to maximise value for the company's shareholders and to build on Sutton Harbour's successes to date.
"Accordingly, Rothschild has been appointed to assist with a strategic review of options, which could include a sale of the company."
