AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO

31 MARCH 2021

CHANGE OF AUDITOR

Chairman's Statement 
 

Dear Shareholders,

I hereby present the financial results for the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Company is an active investor primarily in junior natural resources companies.

The Company made a loss for the year of GBP38,734, compared to a profit of GBP75,050 in the prior year. The Company will not be paying a dividend at this stage (2020: GBPNil).

Cash and cash equivalents as at the year end of 31 March 2021 were GBP109,546 (2020: GBP19,868).

Despite the issues associated with Covid-19, we have continued to build and nurture our investment portfolio and we are generally pleased with performance.

We have participated in a number of early-stage investments and are working on a number of new projects to add value. Due to Covid-19 there have been delays in a number of flotations where we are pre-ipo investors but we hope that a number of these are now nearing fruition. We are particularly excited about the potential listing of Elephant Oil and an Africa-focused copper exploration company where we are a founder shareholder and which we plan to float on a stock exchange in 2022.

We hold cash at bank today of GBP47,000.

We now hold stakes in the following entities:

-- Aqru plc (AQUIS: AQRU)

-- Elephant Oil Limited

-- Genflow Biosciences plc (AIM:GENF)

-- Impact Oil & Gas Limited

-- Mafula Energy Limited

-- MedGold Resources Corp (TSXV:MED)

-- Minergy Limited (Botswana SX)

-- New Horizon Oil & Gas Limited (trading as T5)

-- Nevada Lithium Resources Inc. (CSE:NVLH)

-- NFT Investments plc (AQUIS:NFT)

-- Pilar Gold Inc

-- Rift Resources Limited

-- Royal Road Minerals Limited (TSXV:RYR)

-- Trigon Metals Inc (TSXV:TM)

The Board of Directors will continue to introduce further equity positions to the Company to enable additional diversification of the portfolio. It is anticipated that these will continue to be primarily within the natural resources sector.
