Arrangement of Loan Facility

S-Ventures (AQSE: SVEN), the company investing in brands across the natural, wellness and food-tech categories, is pleased to announce that the Group has secured a bridging loan facility of GBP1m, which is predominantly for short-term working capital purposes and will be repayable in six months. The facility has been secured through a Middle Eastern family office and enables S-Ventures to secure working capital as it works through its fundraise plans and process. The facility is in two tranches of GBP500,000. The first tranche has been made available and the second tranche will be available on 6 November 2023. The facility bears an interest rate of 2 per cent. per month and has been secured by a debenture, and is also supported by a personal guarantee from S-Venture's CEO, Scott Livingston.

We expect to update the market on the fundraise announced on 18th October in due course.
