("Armstrong Ventures" or the "Company")

 

Unaudited Interim results for the six month period ended 30 June 2014

 

 

 

Chairman's Statement

 

Armstrong Ventures (AIM: AVP) is pleased to announce its interim results for the six months period ended 30 June 2014.

 

During the period under review there has been no operating activity and consequently the Company has not generated any revenue.The Company recorded a loss of £85,913 and a loss per share of 0.004p. This compares to a corresponding six month period loss last year of £57,974 and a loss per share of 0.003p.

 

The Company has looked at a number of possible investments over the period but for various reasons none of the opportunities reviewed were suitable for us to make an investment. The economic environment in our chosen sphere of natural resource orientated small companies involved in exploration and development activities continue to be very difficult. Commodity prices have shown declines due to concern over the growth rate particularly in China as they are a significant consumer of these commodities. It is very difficult to attract capital for small cap exploration companies and we cannot say with any degree of confidence how long these conditions may last.

 

Strategic Review

In view of adverse factors affecting our investing policy sector, we have decided to conduct a strategic review with a view to possibly recommending a change in investing policy to our shareholders. We expect this review to be completed fairly swiftly and we expect to announce our findings by end of October. We believe that this is the right course of action for our shareholders given the prevailing tough market conditions.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my fellow director, Mr Kotecha, our shareholders and our professional advisers for their continued support.

Haresh Kanabar

Chairman
