Petra Diamonds Limited
(the "Company")
Delay in Publication of Annual Results
The Company announces that, due to delays in auditing the Groups financial statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2026 ("FY2026"), it does not expect to publish its annual financial report for FY2026 by the regulatory deadline of 31 October 2026 being the final date allowed for publication under DTR 4.1.3R.
The Group audit remains in progress, with additional time required to complete outstanding component and Group audit procedures, finalise the consolidated financial statements and complete the necessary audit reviews. The Company continues to work closely with its auditors to complete the audit and publish the annual financial report as soon as practicable.
Depending on the timing of the finalisation of the audit and publication of the annual financial report, there will likely be a delay in the usual timing for holding the Company's Annual General Meeting.
Suspension of Listing and Trading
As a consequence of the delay to the publication of the audited accounts for FY2026, the Company expects that its shares will be suspended from listing and trading from 07:30 (UK) on 02 November 2026 until the audit is completed and the 2026 annual report and accounts are published.
There can be no certainty as to the expected timing of the lifting of the suspension of listing and resumption of trading of the Company's shares.
Further announcements will be made as and when appropriate.
The person responsible for releasing this announcement is Tumi Dakada, Acting General Counsel and Company Secretary of the Company.
