China Wood International Holding Co., Limited announced that there has been a delay in the release of the 2023 Annual Results due to the delay in the audit work as the Auditor is still collecting information necessary for performing its audit work and certain confirmations from external parties are yet to be collected. As such, the Auditor requires more time for completing the audit of the 2023 Annual Results and the Company is not able to publish the audited 2023 Annual Results on or before 31 March 2024. The Board acknowledges that the delay in publishing the 2023 Annual Results constitutes non- compliance with Rules 13.49(1) of the Listing Rules.

The Company is working closely with the Auditor and will use its best endeavours to publish the 2023 Annual Results as soon as possible. It is expected that the 2023 Annual Results will be published on or before 12 April 2024.
