Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to report the audited financial statements to shareholders for the year ended 29 February 2024.

During the period, Ajax has continued to perform its identification exercise for production and development opportunities in the natural resources sector. The Company has made good progress in this process, having conducted due diligence on several potential acquisition opportunities located in Europe, South America, and Africa. It is expected that there will be material progress to report in due course. 

Proactive steps have been taken during the financial year to minimize expenditure and maximize the Company's financial resources prior to a potential acquisition being completed.

Outlook

As we look to our future progress, we are encouraged by the current energy pricing climate and the many opportunities we believe this has created for experienced and well-connected management teams. Our efforts are fully centered on identifying and completing an acquisition with significant value creation potential for shareholders.

The demand for natural resources contributing towards the transition to a low-carbon economy, specifically metals of strategic importance including gold, tin, copper, and uranium, is expected to increase exponentially in the years ahead.

I would like to thank all shareholders for the support they have shown since the Company's IPO, and we look forward with enthusiasm to our near-term progress.
