Range Energy – Temporary three month truce declared in Khalakan litigation

Range Energy {CSE: RGO} have announced that they and their partners have “agreed to suspend their litigation for three months“.

As a result, Range can finally advise their news starved shareholders of progress on the project.

Comment

 

This remains the most absurd case I have ever heard a listed company being involved in, and wonder why a  truce has been declared at this juncture?

So Range can advise their shareholders of news for three months, and then we have to wait and see whether they have to stop again, or not.

One wonders what are the deciding factors in whether or not this agreement will be extended or not?

It is very difficult to be a shareholder in a company where they are not allowed to issue news, let’s hope this absurdity has finally come to an end on a permanent basis!
