MFSA extends suspension of trading in shares of Loqus plc

The suspension of trading in securities by Loqus plc will be extended for an additional 10 working days from the latest suspension period, until September 2012, over the company's failure to publish its financial statements within the time-frames stipulated in listing rules.

The first suspension is valid for ten working days unless Loqus publishes the respective financial statements during this period. Should the company fail to publish its financial results by the end of the 10-day suspension, the MFSA may consider extending the suspension of trading by a further period of 10 working days.

This action is in line with a notice issued by the MFSA on 13 July, introducing the suspension of trading of instruments. The latest announcement by Loqus Holdings plc was issued on 2 February 2012 stating that the 30 June 2011 year-end results would be issued by the end of March 2012.
