Update on General Meeting
Quantum Exponential Group plc (AQUIS: QBIT), a company focused on investing in quantum technology, is pleased to provide the following update on its recent discussions with a potential investor group ("the Investors").
On 26 February 2024, the Company announced the convening of a General Meeting ("GM") on 15 March 2024 for shareholders to, inter alia, approve the cancellation of the admission of its shares to trading on the AQSE Growth Market ("Cancellation"), in accordance with the AQSE Rules. Shortly before the date of the GM, the Directors were approached by the Investors interested in making a substantial investment in the Company, subject to Cancellation not proceeding.
Since that initial approach, the Directors have remained in dialogue with the Investors to assess the merits of the proposal and take steps to conclude the proposed investment. Accordingly, the GM has been adjourned on several occasions while these talks continued.
Accordingly, the adjourned GM reconvened on 6 September 2024 at 10:00 a.m., at the offices of Fladgate LLP, 16 Great Queen Street, London, WC2B 5DG United Kingdom, will be further adjourned until 10:00am on 3 October 2024 at the same venue. Consequently, the only business at the reconvened GM on 6 September 2024 will be the adjournment of the meeting.
The Board still believe that the continuation of the engagement with the prospective investors is in the best interest of shareholders and would like to thank shareholders for their patience during this period and look forward to providing a further update once discussions have reached a firm conclusion.
This announcement contains information that, prior to its disclosure, was inside information as stipulated under Regulation 11 of the Market Abuse (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019/310 (as amended).
The Directors take responsibility for this announcement.
