Share Buy-Back
Programme
At the Company's last annual general meeting on 23 July 2020 (the “AGM"), Weiss Korea
shareholders granted the Company a general buy-back authority of up
to 40% of the Company's issued share capital.
The Company is about to go into a closed period due to its
interim results for the six months ended 30
June 2020. The Company has appointed N+1 Singer Advisory LLP
to manage an irrevocable programme during the closed period (the
"Closed Period Buy-Back Programme") to buy-back ordinary
shares within certain pre-set parameters. The Closed Period
Buy-Back Programme will commence today and will run until the end
of the closed period, being the date of publication of the
Company's Interim Report for the six months ended 30 June 2020, unless completed earlier.
Any shares purchased in the Closed Period Buy-Back Programme
will count towards the Company's general buy-back authority of 40%
of the Company's issued share capital, as approved at the Company's
AGM.
Weiss Korea confirms that it currently has no inside
information.
