9 Apr 2026 Electro Optic Systems Holdings LimitedElectro Optic Systems: 4 million AUD for late correction of revenue guidance AustraliaDisclosure and reporting obligations €2.41m

The Federal Court of Australia, on application by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC, Australia's corporate, markets and financial services regulator), imposed an allegedly agreed penalty of 4 million AUD on the listed manufacturer of defence, space and communications technology. By 25 July 2022 the company knew that its 2022 revenue was likely to fall materially short of its published guidance of at least 212.3 million AUD, but did not correct the guidance until 31 October 2022; the court found a continuing breach of the continuous disclosure obligation.

What organisations can take from it

Once it becomes apparent that published guidance will be materially missed, the correction must be disclosed without delay.

Relevance to training and awareness

Continuous disclosure: handling deviations from guidance and escalating them internally to those responsible for disclosure
