Chairman's Statement
The energy transition from fossil fuels towards a low-carbon
economy has created a growing number of attractive opportunities
for junior independent energy companies, both in the renewable and
non-renewable domains.
We have maintained an open approach in our assessment of various
opportunities across the natural resource spectrum, ranging from
battery metals such as Lithium and Cobalt, to Critical Metals, as
well as Hydrocarbons. This is because our assessment strategy has
been guided by an overreaching attention towards achieving the most
commercially advantageous transaction to achieve Ajax's long-term
growth in accordance with stringent due diligence criteria.
The Company's management is, as outlined in Ajax's IPO
prospectus document, engaged in seeking to identify and acquire a
target company or business that can return significant value to
shareholders by enabling Ajax to become a revenue generating,
fully-fledged natural resource production and exploration entity
with significant potential.
I am pleased to report that during the period, in view of our
current development stage, effective cost control has been
rigorously enforced and will continue to be maintained until such
time as an acquisition is identified and completed.
It is the Board's opinion, in consideration of the opportunities
currently under review, that Ajax is well positioned to achieve
transformational growth once it successfully completes an
acquisition.
We thank shareholders for their continued support, evidenced by
the Company's recent share price performance, and we look forward
to building on this momentum as we move forward in taking Ajax to
the next key milestone in its development.
