  "account": "Stanbic IBTC Holdings Plc has informed the Nigerian Exchange Limited and its investors that it may face a delay in submitting its Audited Financial Statements for the half-year period ending 30 June 2026. This potential delay could extend beyond the mandatory deadline of 28 August 2026, as the company is currently engaged in the final stages of its audit process. The delay could prevent the timely release of the H1 2026 results to the investing public, as per the guidelines set by the Nigerian Exchange Limited. The financial holding company is actively working to secure the necessary regulatory approvals from the Central Bank of Nigeria before releasing the financial scorecard to the public. Despite the delay, Stanbic IBTC assures stakeholders that all possible measures are being taken to expedite the process and publish the financial statements around or shortly after the regulatory timeline.",
