Future plc has completed the acquisition of the specialist consumer titles of What Hi-Fi?, FourFourTwo, Practical Caravan and Practical Motorhome from Haymarket Media Group.
It was originally reported that Future would buy five titles from Haymarket. However, Future will not now be acquiring Stuff. The consideration has therefore been reduced to up to £13m, including the issuance of 370,708 shares which are subject to lock-up restrictions for three months from the date of issue.
The four remaining titles generated revenue of £9.6m in the last financial year to June 2017.
