Green Build Technology, Global Invacom Group and Keong Hong Holdings will be included in the Singapore Exchange ’s (SGX) watch-list with effect from June 5.
The inclusion comes after the exchange’s half-yearly review.
In their respective announcements, these companies said that they were being placed in the watch-list under rule 1311 of the listing manual. Rule 1311 states that an issuer will be included in the watch-list if it records pre-tax losses for the latest three completed financial years (FYs). The company will also have to have an average daily market capitalisation of less than $40 million over the last six months.
Issuers may apply for their removal from the watch-list if it records pre-tax profit for its latest FY and has an average daily market capitalisation of $40 million or more over the last six months.
Once in the watch-list, companies are required to take “active steps” to restore their financial health and meet the requirements of rule 1314 within 36 months from June 5. Failure to do so will result in the company being delisted. Alternatively, trading of its shares will be suspended and the company will be subsequently delisted.
Green Build Technology says its business and operations will “continue as usual”. Its securities will also continue as usual unless a trading halt or suspension is effected in accordance with the listing manual.
