Speaking at the firm's AGM, held today, Jessops chairman David Adams said: 'Jessops continues to have good relationships with suppliers and landlords and discussions with HSBC are ongoing.'

He added: 'Jessops does not normally comment on press speculation but confirms that its rental commitments, due this week, will be met.'

Jessops' share price soared on the news.
