NEKTAN PLC

("Nektan", the "Company" or the "Group")

Suspension of trading on AIM pending publication of annual accounts

Further to its announcement of 23 December 2019, Nektan plc (AIM: NKTN), the fast growing, award-winning international gaming technology platform and services provider, announces that it has not been able to publish its audited annual report and accounts for the year ended 30 June 2019 (the "Accounts") by 31 December 2019, as required by Rule 19 of the AIM Rules for Companies (the "AIM Rules").

Dealings in the Company's ordinary shares will therefore be temporarily suspended from trading on AIM under AIM Rule 40, with effect from 7.30 a.m. today, 2 January 2020, until such time as the Accounts have been duly published in compliance with AIM Rule 19. The Group expects that this will be during January 2020. 

Notwithstanding the temporary suspension of trading in the Ordinary Shares, the Company will continue to make announcements as and when required by the AIM Rules.
