BrewDog’s share trading day has been rescheduled after trading platform Asset Match’s website crashed.
The Scottish brewer and pub operator had been due to hold its annual auction for Equity for Punks shares, with 6.25m on offer.
However, the attempt – the second time it has offered the opportunity – had to be abandoned after Asset Match was overloaded.
A statement of BrewDog’s website said: “The platform we use to sell shares, Asset Match, is built for equity trading, and recently hosted a trade of shares for Tottenham Hotspur football club, so it’s used to excessive volumes of activity. However, in true BrewDog fashion, we’ve overwhelmed the system with so many interested Equity Punks, and have had to reschedule it for today once we’ve girded the servers.”
The group also said it had evaluated feedback from its customers and would be announcing plans for 2017 on its website this week.
