Access Holdings Plc has explained that the delay in publishing its Group Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, is due to the ongoing review and approval process by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

In a regulatory filing on Tuesday, the financial services group informed investors and the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) that the audited result, referred to as “the Result,” has already been submitted to the apex bank for clearance.

“While awaiting the CBN’s review and approval of the result which may be impacted by the public holidays, it is anticipated that the Company may not meet the extended deadline for filing the Result with NGX,” the company secretary, Sunday Ekwochi stated

Access Holdings further disclosed that it had secured an extension to submit the Result on or before April 20, 2025, contingent on the CBN’s approval.

Additionally, it reminded its insiders that the previously declared Closed Period for trading on the company’s securities remains in effect “until 24 hours after the release of the Result.”

This development follows an earlier announcement issued on February 26, 2025, highlighting the company’s submission of its audited financials for regulatory review.
