“While awaiting the CBN’s review and approval of the Result, which may be impacted by the public holidays, it is anticipated that the Company may not meet the extended deadline for filing the Result with NGX.

“Consequently, the Company has been granted a further extension of time to file the result on or before April 20, 2025, subject to the CBN’s approval of the result.

The Company’s insiders are reminded that the earlier declared Closed Period concerning transactions on its securities remains until 24 hours after the release of the result,” Access Holdings added.
