PMD Device Solutions

The Board's decision follows a detailed assessment of the financial circumstances affecting both the parent company and its Irish subsidiary. Key factors include:

1. The Irish subsidiary has been prevented from resolving its intended short-term liquidity requirement. This stems from delayed payments from a major public sector client and the subsequent decision of tax authorities not to approve a payment plan and release of revenues that would allow operations to continue in a sustainable way. After discussions with critical creditors, no other solution has been made available to the Company.
2. Without access to short-term liquidity, the Irish subsidiary has been unable to meet critical obligations, including payroll, effectively halting operations. This has directly impacted the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern.

"Despite exhaustive efforts to secure short-term liquidity and maintain operational continuity, we have been unable to overcome the financial challenges facing PMD Device Solutions. This situation has left us no choice but to proceed with coordinated bankruptcy filings for both the parent company in Sweden and our subsidiary in Ireland," said Myles Murray, CEO.

"While this is a deeply unfortunate outcome, we are committed to handling this process with the utmost transparency and in accordance with all applicable regulations to protect the interests of our stakeholders."
