Board Changes and Proposed De-listing from AIM
The Company announces that, as part of the steps taken to reduce fixed costs and
to target operational changes to best position the Company in current trading
conditions, the following board changes will be made:
Simon Dannatt, Chief Executive Officer, has today stepped down as CEO to focus
on service for key consulting clients and on North American business and will
remain an executive director until 31 October 2009.
Jonathan Waters, Director and Company Secretary, has resigned from the Board of
Optimisa effective immediately and will work out his notice period prior to his
departure on 31 July 2009.
Ron Littleboy, Non-Executive Chairman, has today assumed the joint role of
Executive Chairman and Chief Executive.
The Company would like to take this opportunity to thank Simon and Jonathan for
their significant contribution to the growth of the Company and wishes them both
well in the future.
In light of current market conditions and recent changes to the business, the
Board has reviewed the suitability of the Company's shares remaining listed.
The Board considers that the costs of remaining listed on AIM significantly
outweigh the benefits. Consequently, the Board will be seeking shareholder's
approval to de-list the Company's shares from AIM and information in connection
with this will be sent to shareholders in due course.
The restructuring of the Company and the reorganisation of the Board has delayed
the publication of the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2008 but the
Board expects that the accounts will be sent to shareholders by the end of May
2009.
