With capital in the bank and a significant asset inventory there remains opportunity; both within Africa and potentially beyond. In this vein, the Board is in discussion with a number of asset financing banks with regards to potential acquisitions and expansion opportunities.
Further afield the Company has been approached by a number of parties about potentially forming joint ventures with regard to the provision of wide ranging support services, particularly in the oil and gas space. Additionally there are a number of businesses which require the expertise that we can offer as regards restructuring and delivering an international standard offering. The Board is assessing a number of opportunities in this context in jurisdictions which are newly opening up for oil and gas, where our ability to operate in challenging environments is recognised and valued. Furthermore, with our primary London listing and dual listing in Kenya the Company is seen as having strong credentials and therefore an attractive operational partner.
The pipeline of opportunities remains in place although conversion timings are hard to predict in the current environment. With cash at bank of US$6.1m, a highly experienced proven operational team, a strategic plan in place and prudent cost management, the Company appreciates continued shareholders support as we look to rebuild value.
