increased at a rate of 6.4% p.a. over the last seven years. In the financial
year to 30 October 2007, Palagan had audited EBITDA of £1.07m - these accounts
included certain costs that would not be continuing under Plastics Capital's
ownership. Net assets acquired amount to £3.5m at completion. Palagan employs 40
staff and has a customer base of 500, with the largest customer accounting for
4.5% of sales.
