Pinewood Group, the owner of the studio most famous as the home of the James Bond franchise, has launched a review of its capital structure that could lead to a sale of the business.

The production facilities company, which owns the eponymous film and television studio as well as a number of others in the UK and overseas, in countries including Canada and Malaysia, has appointed investment bank Rothschild to advise on the process. Options under consideration include measures to help achieve a main stock market listing or a sale that would be worth as much as £350m.
