    THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) NO. 596/2014. 30 April 2019 Proposed Strategic Transaction with Equity Group Holdings Atlas Mara Limited ("Atlas Mara" or the "Company" and including its subsidiaries, the “Group”), the sub- Saharan African financial services group, announces that it has entered into a binding term sheet with Equity Group Holdings Plc (“EGH”) for the exchange of certain banking assets of the Company in four countries for ordinary shares in EGH (the “Proposed Transaction”). The Proposed Transaction is subject to confirmatory due diligence, definitive transaction documentation, relevant regulatory approvals, and other conditions precedent customary for transactions of this nature. As part of the Proposed Transaction, EGH would acquire for shares in EGH Atlas Mara’s 62% shareholding in Banque Populaire du Rwanda (BPR) and, via the Company’s subsidiary ABC Holdings Limited, all of Atlas Mara’s indirect interests in African Banking Corporation Zambia (BancABC Zambia), African Banking Corporation Tanzania (BancABC Tanzania), and African Banking Corporation Mozambique (BancABC Mozambique). The parties would anticipate mergers of their respective banks within each of Rwanda and Tanzania. The Company expects to receive as consideration approximately 252,482,300 ordinary shares of EGH representing approximately 6.27% of the pro forma share capital of EGH post-closing. This implies the consideration to be paid is the equivalent of approximately USD 105.4 million. The aggregate consideration ultimately payable will be that set out in the definitive agreements negotiated following confirmatory due diligence, and may be subject to adjustment (positive or negative), based on the performance of the banks through consummation of the transactions, and on the net asset value of the banks at the time of closing relative to the net asset value they reported as at 31 December 2018.

  • 26 May 2016 Atlas Mara Limited 1St Quarter
    26 May 2016 Atlas Mara Limited 1st Quarter IMS – Three Months Ended 31 March 2016 Atlas Mara Limited ("Atlas Mara" or the "Company" and, including its subsidiaries, the “Group”), the sub- Sahara African financial services group, today releases its IMS for the first quarter ended 31 March 2016. Key highlights during the period On 26 April, at the time the Group released its full year 2015 results, the Group informed the market that it expected to report a loss for the first quarter of 2016. For comparative purposes, given the non- recurring nature of selected expenses related to the Company’s formative period, Atlas Mara provides adjusted figures, excluding one-off items and M&A transaction expenses. On this basis, Atlas Mara reported a loss of $2.0 million for the period (2015: $9.0 million profit). Excluding these adjustments, the loss after tax reported for the first quarter of 2016 was $6.7 million (2015: profit of $0.5 million). The main factors contributing to this outcome for Q1 2016 were: Impact from FX translation due to weakness of African currencies versus a stronger US Dollar in the second half of 2015; Credit provisions taken in Zimbabwe against specific corporate loans due to economic headwinds experienced in that market; M&A and one-off costs where the benefit from spend follows later, i.e. there is a timing mismatch of costs incurred in a transaction versus revenue recognition. Both assets and liabilities have grown both year on year and relative to the prior quarter in constant currency terms and, given the Company’s resolute focus on credit recoveries and collections, management believe that some of the additional provisions may be reversed towards the end of 2016.
