The geopolitical situation directly affects the operations of a key subsidiary, leading to increased costs and potential working capital strain. While the financial impact is not yet quantifiable, the nature of the issues suggests a significant operational disruption.

Redington Limited has provided an update regarding the impact of ongoing geopolitical developments in the Gulf region on its step-down subsidiary, Redington Gulf FZE. Due to current geo-political tensions, operations in the Gulf region are being pursued in a restricted manner. This is attributed to several factors including the re-routing of shipments and closure of major ports/airspace leading to increased transit times, requirements for increased working capital due to higher inventory and customer requests for delayed payments, and an increase in freight, insurance, and logistics costs. Additionally, insurance providers have revoked war risk coverage, necessitating the evaluation of alternative arrangements.
The safety and well-being of Redington's employees are a top priority, with enhanced safety protocols and business continuity plans implemented across affected locations. The company is operating in full compliance with all applicable international regulations, trade restrictions, and sanctions. Senior management is actively monitoring developments and will take necessary actions.
At this stage, it is not possible to reliably quantify the financial impact, as it depends on the duration and intensity of the situation. Redington Limited will continue to monitor developments closely and inform stock exchanges of any material updates.
