Litigation Settlement Resolution
Forgent plc (AIM: FORG), the technology-led energy transition company, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a full and final settlement in relation to the litigation, most recently announced on 12 March 2026 thereby successfully resolving a legacy legal dispute.
As previously announced, the Company was a joint defendant along with five others, including David Palumbo, a director of the Company, in a legacy claim brought by SCV North Fork LLC, the original tax-credit investor at the North Fork project.
Following mediation in San Francisco last month, the parties have now amicably settled their dispute to their mutual satisfaction without any admission of wrongdoing by any party. The case is SCV North Fork, LLC v. Stangl, et al., No. MCV087914 in the Superior Court for the County of Madera, State of California, United States of America.
James Parsons, CEO of Forgent plc commented:
"We are pleased to have reached a full and final resolution of this historical matter following mediation. The settlement draws a line under a longstanding issue and enables the Company to focus fully on executing its strategy."
