On 28th June 2019, Mr. John Treacy resigned from the Board. At the same time, Mr. Mark Jackson re-joined the Board.

The Company retains its investment property in Leeds, which has remained let throughout 2019 on a three-year lease due to expire in August 2021 to a commercial tenant which is.

Future developments

The Directors remain focused on looking for opportunities where businesses or companies that they consider have the potential to produce profits/cash-flow for investors in the short- to medium-term.

Principal risks and uncertainties

Given the nature of the business and activity of the Company, the Directors believe that the Company is not exposed to significant risks other than liquidity risk. The Company's continued future operations depend on the ability to hold sufficient working capital to be able to meet its financial obligations. The Directors are confident that there is adequate funding to finance its immediate working capital requirements.
