Peter Levine, presidente, comentó:
This last substantive RNS announcement for Molecular in the London markets brings no joy, only sadness at its inevitability and acceptance as to the best choice in the circumstances.
I am grateful for all those who voted for the resolution - the only practical solution given what we face.
Thus, some final comments from me. Firstly, a heartfelt apology to those we lost or who have lost on the way. It would be easy to point fingers but at the end responsibility falls on my shoulders and mine alone for the way things have turned out. We all wish it were different and for this I humbly and deeply apologise.
Secondly, the final curtain of our time on the London market is the start of a new chapter for the Group as a private entity. We embark upon this part of the journey with a dedication to honour our commitment to transparency to all shareholders and to deliver returns to those who have stuck with us. The work starts now and as I have kept stating in the past Molecular has a potentially very exciting future and in this, whilst I do not rule out at the appropriate time Molecular or parts of it returning to regulatory markets in places outside of the UK we certainly initially intend to expand and mature privately the various parts of the Group.
Thirdly, I mentioned that delisting in the UK was the only practical solution for Molecular in the current circumstances. This is true. I am old enough to remember in my professional life the days of the Unlisted Security Market ("USM"), the forerunner of AIM. I remember how much promise was shown in that market. Recently Molecular is just one of a noticeable number of companies that have decided that for them the promise has ceased to be fulfilled and to delist for similar reasons that we set out in our own Circular. Of course as usual it is inadvisable to make general assumptions and by way of example we are fully supportive of our Atome PLC on AIM, a Company with world class projects and prospects in the right market segment at the right time and whose value we believe will be increasingly appreciated by the Markets. Nevertheless, I hope there is positive change in the London market as a whole as increasingly the comparison with other markets in Europe, America and beyond is stark.
Finally, I want to express my and the Company's appreciation of Alex Moody-Stuart who is to step down as a director of the Company. Alex has been a rock on the Board bringing maturity, common sense and integrity. Whilst he will be missed as a Board colleague I know we can rely on his wise counsel as a friend going forward. Thank you sincerely Alex.
We now look ahead. To all of those who have and continue to support us, you have my respect and commitment and it's not farewell but thank you for joining us on our next journey.
