Viking delays expected listing date

Investment company Viking Capital has changed the date on which it expects to list on the NZX alternative market from tomorrow until Wednesday.

Viking said today the delay was to allow for holder statements to be sent to shareholders on the day after the allotment of shares, expected to be today.

On June 5 the company opened an offer of 60 million shares at 25c each. Part way through the offer period it extended the closing date by two days until last Friday, citing difficulties in getting prospectuses to all interested potential investors.
