Further to our announcement on the Revocation of Manufacturing Licence (“Revocation”) by the Pharmaceutical Services Division of the Ministry of Health (“PSD”) on 9 January 2017, Hovid would like to provide information on the expected financial impact of the Revocation, based on the following best estimated timeline and assumptions:-
- Submit corrective actions to National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Authority (“NPRA”) by end January 2017,
- Invite NPRA to audit our facilities and Current Good Manufacturing Practice (“cGMP”) immediately thereafter,
- Re-issuance of the Manufacturing licences by the authority by end March 2017, and
- Resume production activities by 1 April 2017
Do note the estimated timelines above may change depending on the outcome of the audit by NPRA in due course.
Based on the audited results of the Group for the financial year ended 30 June 2016 and our issued 819,662,371 shares as at 31 December 2016, the negative effects of the Revocation on the turnover, earnings per share and net assets per share of Hovid Group, assuming the Revocation is withdrawn by 31 March 2017, are as follows:-
