On 15 June 2015, the Board of Directors of World Markets AG (4WM, ISIN CH0039402646) has announced that the publication of the Annual Financial Statements 2014 and the Invitation to the Annual General Meeting will be delayed beyond the required filing date. Currently 4WM is not in a position to complete its annual reports as the directors of one of its holdings, F.I.T. Timber Ltd. (FITTL), have not fulfilled their legal obligation to accurately and timely report to 4WM (as a shareholder and a creditor of FITTL) and did not provide data. As a result, 4WM's Board of Directors are not in a position to evaluate a significant portion of the Company's assets under IFRS or Swiss GAAP, and the appointed statutory auditors cannot complete their work in a timely and lawful manner. The Board of Directors is in contact with FITTL and its directors, and remains confident that the information will be available shortly. The corporate calendar will be updated as soon as possible.
