Access Holdings Plc has announced a further delay in the release of its interim audited financial statements for the half-year ended June 30, 2025.
The company, in a notice to the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX), in Tuesday stated that the publication of the results, earlier scheduled for September 29, has now been moved to October 22, 2025. It explained that the extension was to enable it obtain the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) approval of the results.
“In view of the foregoing, the NGX has approved a further extension of time for the Company to file the Results on or before October 22, 2025, subject to the Central Bank of Nigeria’s approval of the Results,” the notice read.
The development comes amid recent regulatory measures by the CBN, which in June directed banks to suspend dividend payments to shareholders, defer bonuses to directors and senior executives, and refrain from new offshore investments or expansion of foreign subsidiaries.

According to the apex bank, the measures were necessary to strengthen the resilience and stability of the banking sector. It explained that its review of capital positions and provisioning adequacy for banks operating under regulatory forbearance frameworks, particularly around credit exposures and Single Obligor Limits (SOL), informed the directive.
The CBN noted that the policy was aimed at bolstering capital buffers, reinforcing balance sheet resilience, and encouraging prudent capital retention during the ongoing transition period.
Access Holdings also reminded insiders that the previously declared closed period restricting transactions on its securities remains in force until 24 hours after the eventual release of the results.
