"Since the problems in the financial markets the planning was postponed a little bit," she told Reuters by telephone.

She said the listing was originally planned for the first half of 2008 but was now on hold.

EWT, which has been active since 2004, had said it was considering an initial public offering (IPO) on the London Stock Exchange to raise funds to expand production. (Reporting by Catherine Hornby; Editing by Paul Bolding)
