The Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) has suspended trading in the shares of Transnational Corporation Plc (Transcorp).
The NGX, in its weekly report, said the suspension, on Thursday, October 10, 2024, was necessary to determine the shareholders entitled to receive the firm’s reconstructed shares.
The Exchange said the suspension was to prevent any trading activities while the company’s registrars and Central Securities Clearing System (CSCS) reconcile their records for the listing of the reconstructed shares.
According to the regulator, the suspension action follows a share capital reduction undertaken by Transcorp.
In another development, the NGX also lifted the suspension placed on trading of the shares of Lasaco Assurance Plc on Wednesday, October 9.
The NGX referred to its market bulletin dated July 8, which notified trading license holders and the investing public about the suspension.
It added that the development was in line with Rule 3.1 of the Rules for Filing of Accounts and Treatment of Default Filing.
According to the NGX, the rule mandates a second notification to the issuer if they fail to file the relevant accounts by the end of the Cure Period.
The NGX added that Lasaco Assurance had submitted its Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, along with all outstanding financial documents.
