Result of General Meeting
On 6 June 2016 Swallowfield announced that it had entered into a conditional agreement to acquire the entire issued share capital of The Brand Architekts Limited ("Brand Architekts") (the "Acquisition") and conditionally raised £8.6 million (before expenses) through the issue of 5,558,985 new Ordinary Shares in an oversubscribed placing arranged by N+1 Singer.
The Company is pleased to announce that at the General Meeting held today all resolutions proposed were duly passed and accordingly the Placing and Acquisition will complete upon admission of the New Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM expected on or around 28 June 2016 ("Admission").
Chris How, Chief Executive of Swallowfield, said: "The acquisition of Brand Architekts is a transformational development for the Group. It significantly enhances our owned brand portfolio, a key strategic pillar for the Group, and adds further expertise to the team. It further strengthens our business model of building two complimentary value streams (core contract manufacturing and owned brands) on one single capability platform. On behalf of the Board, we would like to thank both our existing and new shareholders for their support."

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the 5,558,985 New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. It is expected that Admission will become effective on or around 28 June 2016.

Following Admission the number of ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the capital of the Company in issue and number of voting rights following Admission of all of the Placing Shares will be 16,865,401.
