Trading in shares of FACB Industries Incorporated Berhad will be suspended from 9.00 a.m. on July 22, 2026, after the company failed to meet Bursa Malaysia’s public shareholding spread requirements.
In a notice issued by Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, the exchange said the suspension will take effect pursuant to Paragraph 16.02(2) of the Main Market Listing Requirements (MMLR).
The suspension follows FACB Industries’ failure to comply with the minimum public shareholding spread requirement stipulated under Paragraph 8.02(1) of the MMLR.
Under Bursa Malaysia’s listing rules, at least 25% of a listed company’s total shares must be held by public shareholders to ensure sufficient market liquidity and public participation.
Bursa said trading in FACB Industries’ shares will remain suspended until the company fully complies with the public shareholding spread requirement or until otherwise determined by the exchange.
The regulator also referred investors to the company’s announcement dated June 8, 2026, which addressed its public shareholding position.
The impending suspension means investors will be unable to buy or sell FACB Industries shares on Bursa Malaysia beginning July 22 unless the company rectifies the shortfall before the suspension takes effect.
The development places pressure on FACB Industries to undertake measures aimed at increasing the proportion of shares held by public investors in order to restore compliance and resume normal trading of its securities.
