Revised Publication Date for Interim Results due to COVID-19
Imperial Brands announces a revised publication date for its
interim financial results for the six months to 31 March 2020. In
order to provide sufficient time to prepare and review financial
information in the current climate, the interim results will now be
published on 19 May rather than 5 May as originally scheduled.
As stated in its March trading update, there has been no
material impact on the Group's performance to date as a result of
COVID-19. However, on 26 March, the Financial Conduct Authority
issued a statement of policy recognising the unprecedented
challenges faced by companies and their auditors in preparing
audited financial information as a result of the coronavirus
pandemic.
With an already tight reporting timetable and with newly
appointed auditors, w e have therefore agreed with EY that the
steps both businesses are taking in relation to COVID -- 19 mean it
will take longer to prepare and review Imperial Brands' interim
financial results for the six months to 31 March 2020.
As a result, we will announce our results on 19 May rather than
5 May. Management will host a webcast presentation and Q&A
session, details of which will be circulated ahead of the
event.
We have put in place a broad range of operational changes to
protect the health, safety and well-being of our employees across
all our manufacturing and office locations, in line with the
guidance of governments to prevent the spread of COVID -- 19.
