BUA Foods Plc has announced a delay in the filing of its unaudited financial statements for the third quarter (Q3) ended September 30, 2025, citing the need for certain data migration processes within the company’s reporting framework.
In a notice signed by Oluseye Alayande, the Company Secretary, and filed with the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX), the food processing giant stated that while the Board of Directors’ meeting scheduled for Thursday, October 30, 2025, will still hold as planned, the company may not be able to submit its Q3 2025 unaudited financial statements on that same date.
BUA Foods explained that the delay was necessitated by “certain changes that require migration in the company’s data set up,” which have temporarily affected its ability to finalize and file the quarterly financial report as initially intended.
According to the notice, the company expects to complete the filing process on or before November 14, 2025.
The statement further confirmed that the closed period, which began on October 1, 2025, in compliance with NGX listing rules, will remain in effect until 24 hours after the release of the unaudited financial statements to the investing public.
During this period, directors, insiders, and other related parties are prohibited from trading in the company’s shares.
BUA Foods Plc reiterated its commitment to maintaining transparency and upholding regulatory compliance in its financial reporting obligations.
The company remains one of Nigeria’s leading players in the food and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector, with operations spanning sugar, flour, pasta, rice, and edible oils.
