Further to its announcement on 6 January 2021, Ryanair Holdings plc (the "Company") provides the following update in relation to the migration of Irish corporate securities from CREST to Euroclear Bank (the "Migration") under the Migration of Participating Securities Act 2019 (the "2019 Act").
Shareholders' attention is drawn to the statement published by Euronext Dublin yesterday evening, which can be found at the following link: https://www.euronext.com/en/media/4354
In its statement, Euronext Dublin has advised that the Live Date on which Migration is to take effect is 15 March 2021 and further that this date will be formally appointed by Euronext Dublin as the Live Date for Migration on the evening of Friday, 12 March 2021.
Accordingly, the timetable of principal events set out below reflects the Company's current expectations and no change is anticipated to the other aspects of the indicative timetable set out in the circular to shareholders dated 17 November 2020 (the "Circular"):
