Investor update - 25 January 2021
Network International Holdings plc ("Network" or the "Company") announces that it has today published on the Investor Relations section of its website; responses to a number of frequently asked questions1. The FAQs provide final responses to certain matters raised in the ShadowFall report published on December 23rd 2020. Therefore, we will not be publishing further responses to matters raised which we consider immaterial, factually inaccurate, historical, or that have already been addressed in our investor communications.
Ron Kalifa OBE, Chairman, said:
"Integrity is central to all that we do at Network International and we refute the concerns against the Company. The Board carefully considers issues raised by stakeholders and while there are limited associations between DPO and some individuals that are regrettable, the Board is satisfied there is no evidence of wrongdoing by the DPO Group.
DPO remains a highly attractive asset, as an online payments business with a leading pan-African presence. The acquisition will accelerate our growth and consolidate our position in the fastest growing payments market in the world. We are confident in the strength of our business, our culture, and the financial and operating discipline that underpins everything we do. We continue to be excited by the opportunity for growth in our markets and confidently look forward to executing on our strategy to build the leading payments business in the Middle East and Africa."
