PNGX Group Limited (PNGX Group), the holding company of PNGX Markets Limited (PNGX), has welcomed Pacific Lime and Cement Limited (PLC) as a listed company on the Papua New Guinea stock exchange.
Trading in PLC commenced at 10:00 a.m. on 15 December 2025, under the trading code PLC.
PLC, incorporated in Singapore, is listing on PNGX as an exempt issuer, with trading conducted through PETS Depository Interests (PDIs). PNGCSD Nominees Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of PNGX Group, will act as the nominee holder of the underlying PLC shares on behalf of PDI holders. The company is also listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).
PLC is a leading building materials company operating in PNG and developing a world-class lime and cement business. Its projects, the Central Lime Project (CLP) and Central Cement Project (CCP), are situated within a 100% owned and controlled Special Economic Zone (SEZ), offering substantial fiscal incentives for the company’s integrated approach. The SEZ framework rewards downstream processing and value-addition, aligning with PLC’s integrated lime-to-cement strategy.
“The secondary listing of PLC on Papua New Guinea’s National Stock Exchange creates a simpler pathway for both retail and institutional PNG investors to participate as equity holders of the Company. With PNG’s national and Central Province Governments, and landowners, to become direct equity holders in our project, this is another opportunity for the people of PNG to participate in nation building by adding value to PNG’s resources,” said Paul Mulder, managing director of Pacific Lime and Cement Limited.
“PLC’s listing on PNGX will provide local investors with an accessible opportunity to invest in a significant new Papua New Guinean industry. It also recognises the importance of the emerging SEZ sector,” said PNGX General Manager Elizabeth Wamsa.
PNGX Group is a diversifying business services company based in Port Moresby. PNGX Markets Limited, its wholly owned subsidiary, operates the national stock exchange and is responsible for providing an orderly and fair market for traded securities, acting in the public interest and protecting investors.
PNGX Markets is regulated and licensed by the Papua New Guinea Securities Commission and serves as the National Numbering Agency for PNG.
