Update on the Publication of FY22 Annual Report & Accounts

Pressure Technologies plc (AIM: PRES), the specialist engineering group, provides an update on the publication of its Annual Report & Accounts for the financial year ended 1 October 2022 ("FY22 Annual Report").

Publication of FY22 Annual Report

On 21 March 2023, the Group announced a delay to the audit of its FY22 accounts while adjustments were made in relation to the accounting treatment applied to long-term defence contracts in FY22 and in prior periods to FY19.  This delay meant that the Group was unlikely to publish its FY22 Annual Report ahead of the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") scheduled for 31 March 2023.

The Group now confirms that it will not meet the 31 March 2023 deadline for publication of the FY22 Annual Report and accordingly, the Company's ordinary shares will be suspended from trading on AIM in accordance with AIM Rule 19 with effect from 7.30 a.m. on 3 April 2023, being the first business day after 31 March 2023. 

Suspension from trading will be lifted with the publication of the FY22 Annual Report, which will be as soon as possible and which the Board now expects to be no later than the end of April 2023.

Further announcements will be made in due course as appropriate.

The person responsible for arranging the release of this announcement on behalf of the Company is Chris Walters, Chief Executive.
