The Board of the Company announces that at its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held today, all the resolutions considered at the AGM were duly passed by the required majority by means of a poll vote.

Banking Facility Update

 

Further to On the Beach's year to date trading update (FY24) published today, it has today exercised a £25m accordion pursuant to its existing revolving credit facility ("RCF") agreement. This is in order to support additional volumes in a growing market and is expected to remain in place for up to 18 months.
