The company obtained a short-term waiver from strict compliance with the public float rule for 19–20 January 2026 and, following an on-market disposal by the offeror of 240,000 shares, restored its public float to 25% of issued shares, bringing it back into full compliance with listing requirements and easing potential regulatory concerns for investors over the liquidity and tradability of its stock.
