An update from Yowie Group ( (AU:YOW) ) is now available.

Yowie Group Ltd has faced significant challenges, including multiple suspensions from trading due to the failure of former directors to lodge required financial reports on time. The company’s securities have been suspended since March 2025, and it has been involved in legal proceedings with its majority shareholder, Keybridge Capital Limited. The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has determined that Yowie contravened certain provisions of the Corporations Act by failing to lodge an audited financial report, resulting in the company being excluded from relying on section 713 of the Corporations Act until August 2026. This exclusion mandates that Yowie must issue a full prospectus for any capital raising, increasing the time and cost involved. The new board of directors is actively working to resolve compliance issues and rectify the situation as soon as possible.
