Various Eateries PLC (AIM:VARE) completed the acquisition of Portfolio of premium pubs with rooms of Grosvenor Pubs Trading Limited. Various Eateries PLC (AIM:VARE) entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire Portfolio of premium pubs with rooms of Grosvenor Pubs Trading Limited for £11.3 million on March 6, 2026. The cash consideration payable on completion for the four sites is £11.25 million, subject to customary completion adjustments. Various Eateries expects to fund the Acquisition through new debt financing and existing resources. The Group has secured a £15 million debt facility with HSBC UK Bank Plc, comprising an £8 million three-year term facility with a seven-year amortisation profile and a £7 million revolving credit facility. Interest is payable at a margin over SONIA, with the margin stepping up or down depending on leverage, plus an arrangement fee. This facility is intended to be available at completion and will be used to part-fund the Acquisition and support the Group's wider growth and working capital requirements. Various Eateries does not intend to undertake an equity raise in connection with the Acquisition. The portfolio includes Wild Thyme & Honey in Cotswolds, The Hare & Hounds in Berkshire, The Stag on the River in Surrey and The Wellington Arms in Hampshire. The sites will continue to trade under their current names and identities. Various Eateries intends to preserve each venue's established positioning and what makes them distinctive. On completion, the acquired sites will form a third operating brand, The Linwood Collection, alongside the Group's existing brands Coppa Club and Noci. Various Eateries has also agreed terms to potentially acquire The Queen's Head in Surrey. The consideration for The Queen's Head will be agreed and paid on exchange and completion of that acquisition. On March 24, 2026, Various Eateries PLC has completed the acquisition from Grosvenor Pubs and Inns of three of the four sites comprised in the Acquisition. Completion of The Wellington Arms (Hampshire) remains subject to landlord consent in connection with the lease assignment process.
