G8 Education confirmed compliance with Listing Rule 3.1 and affirmed that the board authorised its responses.
Share Price Impact
Following the announcement on 2 July 2025, the volume of GEM’s securities traded on that day significantly increased. The company’s share price declined by approximately 20% between 1 July and 11 July 2025. G8 Education attributed the decline to multiple factors, including regulatory uncertainties and negative public sentiment towards the childcare sector, rather than the specific information disclosed.
