LONDON - Oberon Investments Group plc (AQSE:OBE) confirmed Wednesday it cannot comment on the outcome of WH Ireland Group plc’s upcoming shareholder vote regarding the proposed sale of its wealth management operations to Oberon.

Oberon stated that the Asset Purchase Agreement between subsidiaries of both companies remains valid and binding, with obligations to use "all reasonable endeavours" to make the agreement unconditional continuing until December 31, 2025.

Should WH Ireland shareholders reject the proposed sale, Oberon indicated it remains committed to working with WH Ireland to "pursue a successful outcome that serves the best interests of clients, staff, and stakeholders of both businesses."

The company said it would make further announcements as appropriate following the shareholder vote.
