Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.British cable and satellite television company Flextech has agreed to sell its entire 23 per cent stake in AIM-quoted HIT Entertainment.
Flextech said it would realise pounds 7.5m from the sale compared to an initial investment of pounds 625,000 in 1990."HIT is no longer a strategic shareholding for Flextech and we are taking this opportunity to realise a significant return on our original investment," the company said.
Flextech's statement came after HIT said it would raise about pounds 8.1m net through a two-for-seven rights issue at a price of 270p per share. It plans to seek a full listing on the Stock Exchange.
