and

Notice of results for six months ended 30 June 2023.

Distribution Finance Capital Holdings plc, the specialist bank providing working capital solutions to dealers and manufacturers across the UK, today announces that it has secured a new GBP20m Tier 2 Capital Facility from British Business Investments, a wholly-owned commercial subsidiary of the British Business Bank.

The facility provides additional lending capacity to support the Group's near-term growth plans without the need to raise additional Tier 1 capital through an equity placing of new shares.

The facility, which has a term of 10 years, can be drawn in quarterly tranches of up to GBP5m with each tranche having a fixed coupon.

Alongside the previously announced ENABLE Guarantee, provided by the British Business Bank, the Group now has aggregate capacity to grow its loan book to more than GBP800m, if the guarantee is fully upsized from the current GBP250m to GBP350m.

Carl D'Ammassa, Chief Executive, commented : "This is exciting news for the Group. Obtaining non-dilutive Tier 2 capital has been an important component of our near-term strategic plan and our ambitions to continue to scale the bank. The combination of this GBP20m commitment from British Business Investments and the GBP250m British Business Bank ENABLE Guarantee allows us to significantly grow lending over the medium term and, therefore, support the working capital and borrowing needs of more customers than ever before."

Results for six months ended 30 June 2023

The Company intends to announce its results for the six months ended 30 June 2023 on 29 September 2023, including an update on the refinance and restructure of the single large arrears case as communicated with the Group's FY22 results on 19 April 2023.
