The sale of Ster-Kinekor is one step closer after an overwhelming majority of creditors - 99.75% - approved a proposed business rescue plan.

The private company is South Africa's largest cinema group with about 65% of market share. It was negatively impacted by the Covid-19 lockdowns - especially the hard lockdown - affecting its ability to pay debts as and when they fell due. This resulted in the board opting for business rescue in January 2021.

UK-based Blantyre Capital, which specialises in investing in equity and debt"special situations", and Greenpoint is a specialist private credit investment management firm headquartered in Cape Town, offered to buy the company for R250 million. Their offer forms the basis of the business rescue plan.

The suspensive conditions relating to the sale would need to be fulfilled, according to the business rescue practitioner Stefan Smyth. These include amending commercial lease agreements to be agreed with landlords, and the necessary regulatory approvals. Smyth explains that, once the suspensive conditions of purchase have been fulfilled and the funds transferred, he can file for a termination of the business rescue process and transfer the shares in the company to the investors.We live in a world where facts and fiction get blurred, you have access to a world of in-depth analyses, investigative journalism, top opinions and a range of features.

Ster-Kinekor business rescue plan approvedSter-Kinekor Theatres will be taken over by Blantyre and Greenpoint Capital after shareholders and creditors voted in favour of its business rescue plan. It’s one of SA’s worst companies. They don’t advertise. Never make use of their database (which is massive). Closed Cinema Nouveau without acknowledging that clientele in any kind of way. It’s such a waste.
