Increase to two Block Discounting Facilities

1pm plc ("1pm" or "the Company"), the AIM listed specialist independent provider of lease asset finance to the SME sector, is pleased to announce that it has successfully negotiated increases to two of its Block Discounting Facilities, totalling GBP1.25m. These additional funds will be used exclusively for the purpose of writing new lease contracts.

Maria Hampton, CEO of 1pm, commented:

"The need for this additional funding has been driven by increasing customer demand. It also reflects the hard work, dedication and growing reputation within our industry of the 1pm team, who have been instrumental in making the Company continuously profitable over the last three years.

"These increased facilities, together with our other existing credit lines will enable us to continue our support for SMEs within the UK economy, whose own ability to expand has been hindered over recent years due to a lack of credit via the mainstream UK banking industry".
