GUANGZHOU, China, Aug. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Burning Rock Biotech Limited (the "Company" or "Burning Rock") announces that, on August 19, 2024, it intends to submit requests (a) to the London Stock Exchange (the "LSE"), to cancel the admission to trading on the Main Market of its American Depositary Shares representing the class A ordinary shares of the Company (the "ADSs"), and (b) to the UK Financial Conduct Authority, to cancel the listing of the ADSs on the Official List.
As a result of sustained low volume of trading and liquidity in the ADSs on the LSE, and taking into account the costs associated with maintaining such listing in place, the Company is seeking the delisting and cancellation of admission to trading of the ADSs from the LSE (the "Delisting"). It is anticipated that the Delisting will take effect on or about September 18, 2024.
Following the Delisting, the ADSs will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market.
