Response re: Winding up petition

 

Paragon Entertainment Limited (AIM: PEL), the attractions design, production and fit-out business, announces that earlier today, the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") became aware that a winding up petition in respect of Paragon Creative Limited ("Paragon Creative") was filed at The High Court of Justice, Companies Court on 1 May 2019 (the "Petition"). Paragon Creative is the Company's principal trading subsidiary.

 

The Petition relates to sums due to HM Revenue & Customs ("HMRC") of a total of £215,000 with a hearing date listed for 12 June 2019. The Petition was advertised in the London Gazette on 31 May 2019.

 

The Company and its advisers are in communication with HMRC with the objective of obtaining a validation order to acknowledge that the sums due to HMRC have already been discharged in full and therefore the Petition should be dismissed.
