FastForward Innovations Ltd
("FastForward" or the "Company")
Extension of Share Buy-Back Programme
Compliance with Market Abuse Regulation
FastForward Innovations Limited (AIM: FFWD) (the "Company")
today announces that the share buy-back programme announced by the
Company on 20 November 2017 has been extended until 28 February
2018 (the "Extended Period").
As at 19 January 2018, the Company had redeemed in aggregate
790,000 shares at an average price of GBP0.16.
During the Extended Period the Company has approved the
redemption of up to a maximum of 3,400,000 further shares (the
"Extended Buy-Back Programme"). The Extended Buy-Back Programme
will be funded from existing cash resources and is being undertaken
given the Directors' belief that the current market price,
particularly given the recent listing of Nuuvera Inc. and positive
developments across the Company's portfolio of investments in
2017,. significantly undervalues the underlying value of the
Company's investment portfolio.
Any purchase of Ordinary Shares made in relation to this
announcement will be carried out on the open market during the
period commencing on 22 January and ending not later than 28
February 2018.
The Extended Buy-Back Programme shall be executed in accordance
with the Company's general authority to make market purchases of
Ordinary Shares as approved by Shareholders on 16 September 2016
and those provisions of Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU dealing
with buy-back programmes including in particular in relation to
trading restrictions regarding time and volume, disclosure and
reporting obligations, and price conditions set out under Market
Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU.
The shares purchased by the Company will be held in treasury
pending cancellation. Optiva Securities Limited is the Company's
broker in relation to the Programme:
