WALCOM GROUP LIMITED
(“Walcom” or “the Company”)
Company update
Further to the announcement on 30 April
2020, the Board of Walcom provides an update on the
Company’s working capital position.
Mr Francis Chi, Chief Executive
of the Company, has still been unable to provide the proposed loan
of HK$1,230,000 (the “Director Loan”)
to Walcom Bio-Chemicals Industrial Limited, Walcom’s wholly owned
subsidiary, as intended. Mr Chi has, again, reiterated his
intention to provide the Director Loan but there can be no
certainty as to the provision or the timing of the Director
Loan.
As previously announced, the Company has sought to defer the
repayment of certain of its bank loans. One such deferred loan
repayment of RMB200k is due to be
paid by the Company by the end of May
2020.
Based on Walcom’s current cash flow projections, the Company
will be able to continue operations until 15
May 2020. In the absence of the Director Loan now being
received in part or in full by 15 May
2020, the Company would be unable to continue its operations
and would be forced into liquidation with a consequential
diminution in value to shareholders.
Further announcements will be made in due course.
