Welcome to Sarossa Plc

Sarossa is an investment holding and management company whose principal activity is investment in and growth and development of businesses which present opportunities for value creation.

At a board meeting of the Company on 26 September 2025, the Directors took the decision that the Company would not make any further investments and would instead pursue an orderly realisation of existing investments and a return of capital to shareholders by way of cash distributions over the short to medium term following which it is expected that the Company will be voluntarily wound up or subject to an administrative dissolution.

Realisation of investments and return of capital to shareholders

Following successive investment disposals, the Company was able to pay a first return of capital distribution of £186.00 per share in December 2025, followed by payment of a second capital distribution of £70.00 per share in July 2026 and a third capital distribution of £180.00 per share in September 2026.

The Company’s 1 remaining investment was subsequently sold in September 2026 and after which the Directors approved a fourth capital distribution of £208.00 per share payable on 8 October 2026. Together, these four capital distributions amount to a total distributions value of £25.73 million paid to Sarossa’s shareholders.

Planned dissolution of the Company under Part 21 of the Companies (Jersey) Law

Following the sale of the Company’s 1 remaining investment in September 2026 and payment of a fourth capital distribution, the Directors intend to commence a summary winding up process under Part 21 of the Companies (Jersey) Law and the subsequent dissolution of Company and with a small final distribution of surplus assets to shareholders immediately prior to that. A general meeting of the Company will be held on 19 October 2026 for shareholders to approve the proposed summary winding up.

All employment and most other operating costs of Sarossa are expected to cease at the end of October 2026 and the Directors will then remain on an unpaid basis until the dissolution of the Company. That dissolution is now expected to occur sometime in around October 2027 on the basis that unclaimed capital distributions will be forfeited 1 year after having become due for payment (including on the latest capital distribution payable on 8 October 2026 and for which unclaimed amounts will be forfeited on around 8 October 2027) and those unclaimed amounts will be included in a small final distribution of the remaining surplus assets of the Company to shareholders immediately prior to the dissolution.
