The company, which hit the rocks last year when it ran into cash flow problems, has raised GBP15m (US$21.4m) through a placement that will see private equity group Northern Link take a controlling stake in the group.
“We looked at a total restructuring financially to find a solution. We sold some assets… but the main remedy was the private placement,” investor relations manager Sue Cox told just-food today (6 March).
Lighthouse previously sold off two fish farms to raise cash.
The placement will be finalised in a matter of weeks, Cox added.
