Dear Mr Preston,
Vista Group International Limited (VGL) – Price Enquiry
We write with respect to the continuous disclosure obligations set out in the Listing Rules (Rules).
Listing Rule 3.1.1 (”the rule”) is set out in the Schedule attached to this letter. In summary, this rule
requires issuers to immediately disclose any Material Information to NZX Limited (“NZ RegCo”).
The rule provides limited exceptions to this obligation. Material Information does not need to be
disclosed where a reasonable person would not expect the information to be disclosed and where
the information is confidential and its confidentiality is maintained and where one of five safe
harbours applies.
The price of VGL has risen from $1.33, being the closing price on 31 May 2023, to $1.74, being the
closing price on 16 June 2023. This represents an increase of 30.8% over this period.
Given this rise in the price of VGL shares, please advise NZ RegCo whether VGL continues to
comply with Listing Rule 3.1.1.
We would appreciate if you could provide NZ RegCo with an answer to the above question (email:
surveillance@nzregco.com) before 3:00 pm on Monday, 19 June 2023.
Please provide your response to this letter in “PDF” format and note that it will be published in full
to the market.
Regards,
Mitchell Bradley
