Limited
("Globe Capital" or the "Company")
Interim Results
for the six month period to 30 June
2016
Chairman’s Statement
Globe Capital Limited is pleased to announce its unaudited
interim results for the six month period to 30 June 2016. Operational costs for the period
amounted to £85k compared to £56k for the 6 months to June 2015.
At the start of the year, the Company realigned its investment
focus towards the retail sector with an emphasis on menswear.
Following which, the Company made its maiden investment with a 25%
interest in Sterling Craig Ltd, a UK based online retailer for
men’s fashion.
The Board continues to review investment opportunities in line
with its new investment focus and two potential acquisitions have
been identified which we believe will be the start of a platform
for future growth.
In January 2016, the Company
raised £100k in new equity. The Directors continue to seek further
investment capital and hope to report on this in the near future.
Meanwhile, operational costs will be kept at a minimum until
additional funds are raised.
Further announcements will be made in due course.
