The group said its main focus is now producing results 'at the earliest possible date in May'.
Nick von Schirnding, chief executive of Bumi, said: "We are taking all necessary steps to create a clean and transparent company with a balance sheet in which investors can have confidence.
"Verifying the balance sheet is a necessary step to rebuild investor trust and to achieve that a temporary suspension in trading is required.
"It is critical that Bumi is able to draw a line under any historic issues before we move ahead with our clear strategy for value optimisation focused on Berau. "
