Braveheart Investment Group plc (AIM: BRH), the fund management and strategic investor group, announces that one of its Strategic Investments, Kirkstall Limited, a biotechnology company operating within the global organ-on-a-chip market, has commenced an investor marketing exercise. The board of Kirkstall is seeking to raise up to £2.5 million in a private placing at a pre-money valuation of £5.6 million.

Braveheart currently holds 43.36 per cent. of the issued share capital (37.65 per cent. on a fully diluted basis) and its carrying value in the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 March 2017 was £287,000, the original cost price of the investment. Braveheart does not currently intend to participate in the placing.

There can be no certainty that the fundraising by Kirkstall Limited will be completed, how much will be raised or, if a placing is completed, at what pre-money valuation the placing will be effected at.

A further announcement will be made in due course.
