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.
