The delay, according to the company arises from obtaining approval of the Audited Financial Statements from our subsidiaries. “We had envisaged and made requisite plans in ensuring the approvals for filing were obtained before the NGX regulatory filing deadline of March 30, 2024. However, as of today, we have yet to obtain the mandate to proceed to consolidate the accounts and this may result in a delay.
“We understand the importance of prompt submission of the audited report to the exchange, and we pledge to file and make them available by April 30, 2024,” the company said.
