2020 Preliminary Results revised date, guidance unchanged
Chippenham, UK - 5 March 2021: Vectura Group plc (LSE: VEC) ("Vectura", "the Group") today announces a revised date for the publication of its Preliminary Results for the full year ended 31 December 2020.
The Group's auditor, KPMG LLP, has advised Vectura that it has experienced unforeseen delays in completing its audit as a result of recent resourcing constraints arising from COVID-19. As such, it has requested additional time to complete its audit procedures. The Group will now announce its Preliminary Results on 18 March 2021. Vectura confirms that the delay has not arisen as a result of concerns relating to the 2020 financial results or the future outlook of the Group.
As announced in the Group's January trading update, financial performance for 2020 was ahead of Board expectations.
Will Downie, Chief Executive Officer, and Paul Fry, Chief Financial Officer will host a live webcast and conference call for analysts at 9:30am GMT on 18 March 2021.
