Hide AdA statement issued by White Arches today (Thursday) said: “MBH Corporation plc recently took steps to place MBH Corporation into administration.
"MBH is a shareholder of White Arches.
"While this news is disappointing, we expect this will have limited impact on White Arches, as MBH is a shareholder only – White Arches was not relying on funding from them.
"Separately, we have recently been working closely with our stakeholders and our advisors to explore options that would enable us to bring additional investment into the business which would put in place the financial platform we need to be able to take our growth plans forward.
"This includes exploring a potential sale of the business to a new investor.
