Pressure Technologies plc
("Pressure Technologies", the "Company" or the "Group")
Notification to Shareholders in accordance with FRS 101
On 7 October 2016, the Company posted a letter to shareholders,
the full text of which is set out below:
Notice of Adoption of Financial Reporting Standard 101 ("FRS
101"): Reduced Disclosure Framework
We wish to notify you about certain proposed changes to the
information that will be disclosed in Pressure Technologies plc's
(the 'Company') parent company financial statements contained in
the Company's future annual reports.
A new UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice ("UK GAAP")
accounting framework introduced by the Financial Reporting Council
("FRC") became mandatorily effective for the financial statements
of UK companies with accounting periods commencing on or after 1
January 2015. Under this new framework, the Company is required to
elect to prepare its parent company financial statements on one of
the bases permitted by the FRC.
We propose to adopt FRS 101, a reduced disclosure regime, for
the year ended 1 October 2016 and on an ongoing basis until such
time as the Company notifies shareholders of any change to its
chosen accounting framework for the parent company financial
statements. The consolidated financial statements of the Company
will continue to be prepared in accordance with EU-adopted IFRS and
are unaffected by this new accounting framework.
The Company's election to adopt FRS 101 for its parent company's
financial statements does not require shareholder approval,
however, as stipulated in FRS 101, it is required to notify all
shareholders. Any shareholder or shareholders holding in aggregate
5 per cent or more of the total allotted shares in the Company may
serve an objection. Objections must be served in writing and
delivered to the Company Secretary at Pressure Technologies plc,
Newton Business Centre, Newton Chambers Road, Chapeltown, S35 2PH,
United Kingdom by no later than 27 October 2016.
