THE sale of ZCCM-IH shares to the public has been extended to November 30, 2015, due to lack of adequate information on the preferential market offer.

This is in compliance with the listing rules of the Lusaka Stock Exchange (LuSE), and an announcement made by ZCCM-IH on Friday August 7, 2015, detailing the salient terms of the preferential secondary market offer.

The investing public has been advised that the period for the preferential offer has been extended to Monday, November 30, 2015.

According to information posted on the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) website, the preferential offer was targeted to close on Friday, October 2, 2015, but ZCCM-IH has noted that most members of the public have not been able to access adequate information on the preferential offer due to the delayed availability of the information supplement.

“The company has decided to extend the offer period to Monday, November 30, 2015. The revised time line for the offer is shown under the revised salient dates,” the announcement reads.
