LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Consumer products manufacturer Supreme has acquired UK vaping manufacturer Liberty Flights for an initial consideration of £7.75m, plus a deferred consideration of £2.0m and a performance-related earn-out.
Supreme said on Monday that the addition of Liberty Flights to the group was a "strategic acquisition" aimed at accelerating product development and expanding the firm's UK customer footprint.

The AIM-listed group added that the Acquisition was also firmly in line with its strategy to support a tobacco-free UK by offering both "credible and safer" alternatives for nicotine consumption.

Supreme also expects the acquisition to be immediately earnings enhancing for the group, with Liberty Flights expected to operate as a standalone entity for an initial 12-month period before being fully integrated.

As of 1045 BST, Supreme shares were up 1.74% at 134.40p.
