The latest announcement is out from Pennpetro Energy Plc ( (GB:PPP) ).

Pennpetro Energy Plc has resolved a longstanding share registration issue involving 6,000,000 shares purchased by investor Jesse White, which had previously not been registered in his name due to an unlawfully executed transaction by a former board. With the cooperation of the original shareholders, the company has now entered Mr. White as the registered holder of these shares, correcting the prior void registration that had listed the company itself as holder.

The current board, led by Executive Chairman Richard Spinks, emphasised that the resolution was achieved lawfully despite external pressure and a legal claim from Mr. White, and framed it as part of a broader effort to rectify historical mismanagement of shareholder loans and disenfranchised positions. Management signalled that all shareholders who lent shares to the company in the past can expect their rightful holdings to be returned, with further transfers to be announced as they are completed, which may help restore investor confidence and strengthen corporate governance credentials.
