Interim Management Report
The Company was formed to undertake an acquisition of a target
business, or asset(s) with operations in the energy or natural
resources sectors.
As you are aware the Company's shares began trading on the
standard list of the London Stock Exchange on the 29 July 2019
after raising GBP750,000. Even though the Company has only been
funded for just over 12 months we have been active in executing the
Company's objectives as outlined in the Company's Prospectus.
The Directors believe that their network and profile following
Admission mean that the Company will be able to target an
Acquisition where the target company or business or asset(s) has a
transaction value of between GBP2 million and GBP50 million.
The Company's determination in identifying a prospective target
company or business or asset(s) in the energy or natural resources
sectors will not be limited to a specific geographic region, stage
of development from exploration through to production. However, it
is the Company's preference that the target is generating cashflow
or has the capability of generating cash flow within 12-18 months
of acquisition.
As previously advised the Company completed due diligence in
late 2019 on a number of assets located in the USA, all of these
assets were in production and had development upside. Bids were
placed on the assets in a competitive bidding process however the
Company was not successful in those instances. In early 2020 the
Company had initiated discussions with a number of companies in
respect to acquiring non-operated, minority interests in assets
located in western Europe.
Since that time the effects of the COVID-19 virus and the oil
price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia meant that oil prices
materially declined and still remain approximately 30% below levels
seen at the start of 2020. The Company believes that the effect of
this will mean companies that were seeking to divest assets will
wait until the oil price recovers to a more attractive level, it is
the Company's view that this level will be a Brent oil price of at
least US$50 barrel. It is unknown how long this recovery will take
and therefore the Company will expand its search for appropriate
acquisition targets to the entire value chain of the energy
industry and not just the upstream sector. It will also consider
potential acquisitions outside of the energy and natural resources
industries.
The Directors collectively have an interest of 29.2% in the
Company and therefore have a vested interest to ensure the
Company's first acquisition is the right one. The Company will
remain diligent in minimising its overheads by reducing
administration charges wherever possible. I look forward to
communicating with you further once a suitable acquisition has been
identified and secured by the Company.
Alan Broome, AM Chairman

5 Share-based payment transactions
On 18 May 2020, the Company granted 350,000 Options to
Jacqueline Yee, a director of the company. Each Option entitles the
Option Holder to subscribe for one Ordinary Share at the Placing
Price per each Ordinary Share. The Options vest when the share
price of the Ordinary Shares reaches 15p. The Option Holder must
exercise the Options by 5:00pm GMT on 28 July 2024, subject to the
Options having vested.
The directors are of the opinion the company will achieve a
share price of 15p by 31 December 2020, and therefore the Options
will vest by this date. The successful acquisition of a target
company is anticipated by 31 December 2020 following the expansion
of searches for target companies into increased industries and
areas, and the share price is expected to increase following
acquisition.
The fair value of the options at their grant date has been
calculated using the Black Scholes Model and a valuation for the
newly granted options of GBP3,000 has been adjusted through the
Share based payment reverse in equity during the current period.
There has also been a fair value adjustment of GBP18,515 in the
period relating to options already in existence at 31 December
2019.
6 Events after reporting date
There have been no material events since the reporting date that
require disclosure.
7 Directors' loans
At the reporting date GBP9,000 (31 December 2019 - GBP9,000) was
due from the directors to the company in respect of unsettled share
capital. GBP6,300 (31 December 2019 - GBP6,300) was due from D L
Gallegos, and GBP900 (31 December 2019 - GBP900) was each due from
A J Broome, P V Wale and S W Holden. These amounts are repayable on
demand, interest free and are considered fully recoverable.
In addition, a further amount of GBPnil (31 December 2019 -
GBP1,000) was due to D L Gallegos. This amount was repayable on
demand and interest free.
8 Principal risks and uncertainties
The Directors consider that the principal risks and
uncertainties that could have a material effect on the Company's
performance are unchanged from those identified in the Annual
Report and audited financial statements for the period ended 31
December 2019.
