Leclanché will announce 2017 annual results on 4th May 2018

YVERDON-LES-BAINS, Switzerland, 30th April 2018. Leclanché SA (SIX: LECN), one of the world's leading energy storage solution companies, announces that its 2017 annual results will be released on 4th May 2018.

Leclanché has obtained an extension to publish its 2017 annual report and to file the report with SIX Exchange Regulation.

The decision by one of our shareholders to postpone by a couple of weeks the conversion of its Mandatory Convertible Note (MCN) signed in December 2017, has delayed the finalization of the 2017 annual report and its approval by the Company's Board of Directors. Leclanché will release its 2017 annual results on 4th May 2018.

Anil Srivastava, CEO of Leclanché, said: "This four-day delay in the announcement of our 2017 results is only technical and I want to reiterate what was stated in our 1st March 2018 market update. Leclanché is fully funded and is on track to meet its CHF 40-50 million 2018 revenue guidance. We look forward to sharing our results with you on the 4th of May and to set out our strategy to capitalize on the exciting growth opportunities in the stationary and transport markets and leveraging our established market leadership position."
