CLN – facts matter (updated following today’s RNS)27 Jan 2026 14:38
There’s been a lot of misinformation posted about the CLN, so it’s worth sticking to what the company has actually disclosed via RNS.
Today’s RNS (27 Jan 2026) confirms that YA II PN Ltd has converted £180,000 of principal plus £2,884.93 of accrued interest, resulting in the issue of 35,859,790 new shares at 0.51p.
Key points from the RNS:
CLN principal prior to conversion: £1,620,000
Amount converted: £180,000
CLN principal remaining: £1,440,000
Shares issued: 35,859,790
Admission expected: 2 February 2026
This RNS also confirms what some seem to be missing:
The company is not required to RNS when a CLN amortisation is settled in cash
An RNS is only required when shares are issued — exactly as per the original funding RNS
The first amortisation (early January) appears to have been settled in cash, which explains why no RNS was issued at the time. That is entirely consistent with today’s numbers.
So the repeated claim that “£2m is still outstanding” is now factually wrong and misleading. As of today, the CLN balance is £1.44m, not £2m.
On top of that, NTVO has:
The ATM facility to manage repayments at stronger prices
The option to repay early
And a mining restart expected in February, which materially changes the funding and cash-flow outlook
The narrative of “£2m of imminent dilution” simply does not stack up when you look at the actual RNS trail.
As always, anyone unsure can email the company directly rather than recycling fear-based assumptions.
The real focus remains unchanged: Mining restart, Cash flow generation, and Re-rating!!
