1Spatial Maintains Timetable for VertiGIS Takeover Despite Pending French Approval

An update from 1Spatial ( (GB:SPA) ) is now available.

1Spatial said its agreed all-cash takeover by VertiGIS is progressing, with the deal to acquire all outstanding shares being implemented via a UK court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement. Shareholders have already approved the scheme, and UK and Belgian foreign direct investment clearances have been secured, with the transaction still subject to remaining regulatory and court conditions.

The company reported that French foreign direct investment approval has not yet been received but is still expected before a 16 April court sanction hearing, allowing the existing timetable to remain in place. Subject to receiving the French sign-off, court sanction, filing of the court order and satisfaction or waiver of outstanding conditions, 1Spatial expects the scheme to become effective on 29 April, keeping investors focused on regulatory risk rather than deal terms at this stage.
