AFARAK GROUP PLC APPEALS THE FIN-FSA DECISION TO THE HELSINKI ADMINISTRATIVE COURT
Stock Exchange Release
On 24 September 2019, Afarak released information that FIN-FSA imposed penalty payment of EUR 1 450 000 to Afarak for failures relating to disclosure of inside information and maintenance of insider lists.
After having studied the FIN-FSA decision, Afarak does not agree with the decision and the penalty payment imposed by FIN-FSA. Therefore Afarak has today appealed the FIN-FSA decision to the Helsinki Administrative Court.
Afarak will continue to cooperate with the FIN-FSA and Afarak remains committed to comply with the rules and regulations of the Helsinki Stock Exchange as well as the London Stock Exchange.
The Company will update the market in due course about the next steps in the process.
