A total of 16 companies worth N109.11billion in market capitalization have failed to comply with post-listing requirements of the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) of filing audited result and accounts at stipulated period, THISDAY investigation has revealed.

THISDAY learnt that three out of the 16 companies have not remitted six years results to the bourse, a development that has kept investors in the dark over their corporate earnings and possible dividend payout.

The 16 companies include; Oando Plc, Medview Airline Plc, John Holt Plc, Thomas Wyatt Nigeria Plc, The Tourist Company of Nigeria Plc, Goldlink Insurance Plc, International Energy Insurance Plc,, Standard Alliance Insurance Plc, and STACO Insurance Plc

Others are Union Homes Savings & Loans Plc, Aso Savings & Loans Plc, Resort Savings & Loans Plc, Capital Oil Plc, Deap Capital Management & Trust, DN Tyre & Rubber Plc and Multi-Trex Integrated Foods Plc.

He said: “In the next few weeks, we are expecting the company to release audited 2019 results to the public. However, in other companies, we don’t know their problems. The management of NGX and SEC should intervene and find out their problems.”

Aside from Oando, Medview Airline with market capitalization N18.8billion has not submitted 2019 and 2020 results to the bourse.The company in its interim result and accounts for the full year ended December 31, 2019 reported N220.38million profit as against N3billion loss reported in 2018.
