“At the same time, the transfer of a loan made by the above parent company with a shareholder is investigated. The company declares that at this stage the authorisation of its directors concerns solely the exploration of the above investment in order to collect data that will allow its assessment by the company’s Board of Directors,” the announcement concludes.
Diversa’s board of directors will evaluate the data to be collected by the consultants and assess whether the company will go ahead with the investment.
