Amsterdam, 17 October 2023 – X5 Group (“X5” or the “Company”, LSE and MOEX ticker: FIVE), a leading Russian food retailer that operates the Pyaterochka, Perekrestok and Chizhik retail chains, announces that the Bank of Russia has registered a prospectus for the Company’s Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).
As announced earlier, the Company has approved and filed a prospectus for its GDRs for registration with the Bank of Russia, in order to secure uninterrupted admission to trading of its GDRs on Moscow Exchange (MOEX). The prospectus serves as a basis for admission to trading on MOEX that is not dependent on the Company’s listing and admission to trading on other trading venues. The prospectus registration does not affect the status of X5’s GDRs listed on the London Stock Exchange and traded on MOEX, and no actions are required on the part of holders of these GDRs.
