                         ("PipeHawk" or the "Company") 
 
              Acquisition of Wessex Precision Instruments Limited 
 
PipeHawk is pleased to announce that it has acquired the entire issued share 
capital of Wessex Precision Instruments Limited ("Wessex") for a consideration 
of GBP1 (the "Acquisition"). Wessex produces and sells a range of equipment for 
testing the slip resistance characteristics of aggregates used in public areas, 
including in supermarkets and around swimming pools. The Board believes that 
the Wessex business presents a number of synergistic cost saving opportunities 
for the Company and will complement the Company's subsidiary QM Systems and its 
existing portfolio of test and measurement equipment. 
 
In the year ended 31 March 2019, Wessex recorded unaudited revenues of 
approximately GBP340,000 and an unaudited loss after tax of approximately GBP 
61,000. As at 31 March 2019, Wessex had net liabilities of approximately GBP 
52,000. 
 
Gordon Watt, Chairman of PipeHawk, commented: "I am delighted that PipeHawk has 
acquired Wessex; it has a world class reputation in an area of health and 
safety that is becoming increasingly prominent. Wessex will further benefit 
from PipeHawk's marketing and technological expertise."
