15b Trade obligaton with banks

The Company was involved in trade financing arrangements with some local banks where the banks agreed to pay amounts to foreign vendors in respect of invoices owed by the Company and received settlement from the Company at a later date. The principal purpose of the arrangements was to facilitate efficient payment processing in view of the challenges experienced with sourcing foreign currency in the Nigerian market. The arrangement enabled the Company to settle its foreign obligations in a timely manner to facilitate receipt of key input materials required in the production of finished goods. The facilities have been fully settled as at end of the 2025 financial year.
