E&P Global Holdings Limited ( (HK:1142) ) has provided an update.

E&P Global Holdings Limited said a Moscow arbitration court has ruled in favour of its Russian subsidiary LLC Shakhta Lapichevskaya, declaring unlawful the early termination of two key mining licenses and related regulatory decisions by Rosnedra and the Ministry. The regulator has been ordered to remedy violations within 30 days once the judgment takes legal effect, though both Rosnedra and the Ministry retain the right to appeal.

The company added that the court outcome could pave the way for reversing part or all of the HK$1.45 billion impairment previously taken on its Russian exploration and evaluation assets, which had been written down to zero amid legal uncertainty. Any reversal will depend on a final favourable outcome in the court process, confirmation of legal title and completion of accounting assessments, signaling potential balance-sheet relief but leaving investors exposed to ongoing legal and regulatory risks.
