Independent Expert Clears ISX on Visa Compliance
Melbourne, Sep 8, 2020 AEST (ABN Newswire) - The Supplementary Independent Expert Report on iSignthis' (ASX:ISX) (TA8:FRA) adherence to continuous disclosure requirements vindicates the position adopted by ISX in relation to disclosure of its dispute with Visa.
Accordingly, it ends ASX's baseless campaign to portray ISX as non-compliant with the continuous disclosure regime, in an effort to bolster its defence to ISX's claim in the Federal Court of Australia (reference: para 73 in ASX's defence, belatedly filed with the Court on 4 September 2020).
ISX has complied with each of the directions given to it by ASX on 1 May 2020, as a pre-requisite for reinstatement of ISX's shares to quotation.
In addition to complying with ASX's directions, ISX has repeatedly offered a 12 month voluntary escrow of the performance shares that were issued in 2018. ASX had previously indicated in in late 2019 that a 12 month escrow would support a decision to reinstate ISX shares to quotation. As events have transpired, ISX shares have now been suspended for almost 12 months, which has produced an equivalent outcome to a 12 month escrow.
Mr Karantzis, CEO of iSignthis Ltd said "The board of iSignthis know of no reason why ISX's shares should remain suspended from trading and, accordingly, the board of ISX demands of the ASX that the suspension be lifted immediately.
ISX shareholders have suffered hardship during a pandemic under a suspension imposed by the ASX that has been based on gossip columns, short seller reports, rumour and innuendo by the ASX's own admission in their Federal Court defence."
