Suresnes, March 24, 2016: The Recylex Group (Euronext Paris: FR0000120388 - RX) is today announcing a change to its 2016 financial agenda (published on February 9, 2016), postponing to a later date the publication of its full-year 2015 results (originally scheduled for April 7, 2016) and thus also the date of its Annual Shareholders' Meeting (originally scheduled for May 25, 2016).
Discussions concerning the global financing package sought by the Group's German perimeter to finance the new production project in the Lead segment and cover their working capital requirement continue, but have not yet reached a sufficiently advanced stage for Recylex SA's Board of Directors to be able to approve the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 on a going concern basis (see the press release dated February 17, 2016).
As part of these ongoing discussions, the due date for repayment of a €3 million credit line by the Group's German businesses, originally set for March 31, 2016, has been, for the time being, rescheduled for April 30, 2016.
Recylex SA will release a progress update on arrangement of the financing and its new reporting schedule in April 2016.
