Since May 2014, many shareholders have inquired for more precise information on timeframe and strategy for the re-listing of Selena Oil & Gas Holding AB (Publ.). The principal reason for delay in executing any strategy for re-listing is an ongoing legal dispute at Stockholm's Tingsrätt. A settlement of disputes would make it possible for the Company to start a listing process and to apply for re-listing of its shares at an attractive public exchange.
