The Company wishes to inform that the Federal Court has overturned the Court of Appeal’s ("COA") decision issued on 18 August 2021. Therefore, the decision of the High Court is upheld and reinstated. The Federal Court ruled that there was no oppression and ordered the Respondent to pay costs of RM150,000.00 to each of the Appellants, i.e.: the Company and Apex Securities Berhad, its wholly owned subsidiary. The Federal Court also ruled that the costs that were paid by the Appellants in the lower courts (High Court and COA) be refunded to the Appellants accordingly.
This announcement concludes the above matter.
This announcement is dated 26 March 2024.
