The Board of Directors of the Company wishes to inform that the Court has delivered its judgment on 27th April 2018 (“the Decision”) in favour of the Defendant. The Court dismissed the Company’s Originating Summons as follows:-

At this juncture, the Board is unable to ascertain the financial impact to the Company pending the outcome of the appeal.

If there is any development in this matter, further announcement will be made accordingly where necessary.
