EFORE PLC’S FINANCIAL REPORTING IN 2016 AND TRANSITION TO NEW REPORTING PRACTICE


Espoo, Finland, 2015-12-07 12:15 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EFORE PLC   Stock
Exchange Release    December 7, 2015   at 1.15 p.m 

As a consequence of the new stock exchange rules valid from December 1, 2015,
Efore changes its reporting practice and will not prepare three and nine month
interim reports from now on. Fluctuations between the quarters are significant
due to the characteristics of the business and the periodic fluctuations in the
telecommunication sector, making comparisons from quarter to quarter difficult.
During a six month period the quarterly variations are expected to be more
balanced and comparability of the periods will improve. The new practice will
also reduce administration costs of the company and enable the company to
concentrate on operational development. 

At the same time the company updates its disclosure policy and insider
guidelines. The company applies 30 days closed period before the publication
date of the annual or interim report. During this time the company refrains
from discussing with representatives of the capital markets and the media about
the financial position or business operations of Efore. As a result of the
updated insider guidelines Efore’s permanent insiders are not allowed to trade
Efore Plc securities for a period starting 30 days prior the publication of the
company’s financial statement bulletin or interim reports and ending the day
following the day of the release of such a report (closed window). 

Efore Plc will disclose the following financial reports in 2016:
- Financial Statements Bulletin 2015: February 12, 2016
- Half year 2016 (January 1, 2016 - June 30, 2016): August 10, 2016

The Annual General Meeting will be held on March 30, 2016. The Annual Report
for 2015 will be published during week 10 in 2016. 

In addition to the stock exchange release the company aims actively to disclose
events related to the company's business operations that do not fulfil the
criteria for stock exchange releases but are nonetheless estimated to be
newsworthy, have value in terms of market communications or otherwise be of
interest to stakeholders. 

Efore's website (www.efore.com) is the main communication channel to all
stakeholders. All Efore’s stock exchange and press releases are available on
the company website.  In addition to its website, Efore uses various methods
and channels to communicate with stakeholders, such as bulletins, releases and
other publications, social media channels, interviews, public appearances,
conference calls and webcasts.
