Defenx PLC("Defenx" or the "Company")
Suspension of trading on AIM pending publication of annual accounts
Defenx announces that the Company will not be able to publish its audited annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2017 (the "Accounts") by 30 June 2018 as required by Rule 19 of the AIM Rules for Companies (the "AIM Rules").
The Company is in the process of finalising the audit and the results will be announced, and the Accounts published, as soon as possible. Philipp Prince (CFO) is expected to remain on the Board until such time as the Accounts have been published and the Company is at an advanced stage regarding the appointment of an interim CFO, as envisaged in the circular to shareholders dated 6 April 2018.
Dealings in the Company's ordinary shares will therefore be temporarily suspended under AIM Rule 40 from 7.30 a.m. on Monday 2 July 2018 until such time as the Accounts have been duly published in compliance with AIM Rule 19.
Notwithstanding the temporary suspension of trading in the Ordinary Shares, the Company will continue to make announcements as and when there are any developments that require announcement under the AIM Rules.
