SIX approves plan to delist battery maker Leclanché
The SIX exchange has approved a plan to delist Leclanché, a battery maker based in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland.
The decision is not final, and the company can appeal within 20 trading days.
Trading in its shares remains suspended because Leclanché has not published its 2025 annual report in line with exchange rules.
If the delisting becomes final, trading is expected to reopen for three months before the last trading day.
Leclanché is seeking short-term funding from customers, strategic partners and potential investors to support its operations.
The company says it has a solid order book, but faces serious near-term challenges with funding, cash flow and production capacity.
The delayed August and September wages have been paid, according to the company and a source cited by a Swiss newspaper.
SIX’s Regulatory Board approved a plan to delist all of Leclanché’s listed registered shares on 15 October.
The decision is not yet legally binding, and trading in the shares remains suspended.
The proposed delisting follows Leclanché’s failure to prepare and publish its 2025 annual report in line with rules.
Leclanché can appeal the decision within 20 trading days.
The company says it is seeking short-term financing and has active talks with customers, strategic partners and potential investors.
Le Temps reported that Leclanché had paid delayed wages for August and September, a fact the company’s management confirmed by phone.
