Estre Ambiental to Announce Full Year 2017 Earnings Release in June 2018
SÃO PAULO, May 29, 2018 -- -- Estre Ambiental, Inc. (NASDAQ: ESTR) (the “Company” or “Estre”) announces that it is postponing the release of its full year 2017 results that was originally scheduled for May 30, 2018. The Company currently expects to release its results before the end of June 2018 and will issue a further press release with the details for its 2017 earnings call in due course.
The Company continues to work diligently to complete the internal evaluation process relating to the matters referred to in its press release issued on March 5, 2018 and, in parallel, is working to finalize its audited financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2017.
While the internal evaluation process is not yet complete, the Company expects that it will restate its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016 previously filed with the SEC to reflect the findings of its internal evaluation, corresponding mainly to an increase in tax provisions based on management’s reassessment of probable tax losses, among other potential changes.
