Significant events
- “Following a challenging trading period in the beginning of 2024 with a marked drop in demand linked to reduced consumer confidence, the Directors initiated a sale process for the business. The sale process concluded with a Share Purchase Agreement being signed to sell Verdant Leisure Bidco Limited to Valley Newco Limited, an investment vehicle of the Group's funder LGT, on 24 December 2024.”
- “The change of ownership was completed 19 May 2025. The change of control was effective from the 24 December 2024. Following the change of ownership on 19 May 2025, the Valley Newco Limited group of companies (the "Group") is funded through a £20m secured senior loan facility maturing December 2029.”
- “The Group has commenced a rebrand to better reflect its strategic positioning and long-term objectives. The rebrand includes a change from Verdant Leisure to Verdant Parks, visual identity and customer-facing branding, and will be implemented across marketing materials, digital platforms and on-site signage.”
