For immediate release 27 September 2022

TIGER ROYALTIES AND INVESTMENTS PLC ("Tiger" or the "Company")

UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 30 JUNE 2022

Chairman's Report

Dear Shareholder,

Net Asset Value per share - 30 Jun 2022: 0.12p / 31 Dec 2021: 0.17p (30 June 2021: 0.29p)

Total net assets - 30 Jun 2022: GBP542k / 31 Dec 2021: GBP770k (30 June 2021: GBP1,314k)

In my chairman's statement for the comparative six months period to 30 June 2021, I was very enthusiastic and upbeat on the outlook for junior resource companies. This sentiment was based on the resurgence in the sector and the positive mood in the investment community during that period . Many IPOs and secondary financings were completed in the course of 2021 and stock markets experienced a buoyant period, particularly in the case of alternative energy commodities.

These fundamentals remain firmly in place and have arisen from a desire for a cleaner planet and the impact of global warming resulting in uncharacteristic weather changes which have become more regular, with increasing devastation in recent years. However, despite these positive fundamentals, smaller cap stocks, particularly in the natural resource sector have experienced one of the worst periods during the many years that I have been active in the sector. Many companies have made discoveries and others have advanced their projects significantly with the market giving little or no recognition to the achievements made by these operators.

Market capitalisations of junior resource companies are generally lower compared to this period last year. The paradox is that most major mining companies have, in recent months, produced "all time" high cash returns from their operations and have also recorded excellent returns to shareholders, with dividends and windfall distributions breaking previous records.

At the time of writing this report, commodity prices are slipping and the major mining companies are warning that there may be hard times ahead. These negative factors have mainly resulted from the ongoing war in Ukraine and fears of excessive and sustained inflation. Whilst the war is very real and also very sad, we believe that inflationary pressures have resulted more from supply chain disruptions, triggered mainly by the Pandemic, although the effect of energy costs on the inflation basket cannot be ignored.

Uncertainty has always been a threat to stock markets and personally, I have rarely experienced such volatile times. We are faced with economic and geo-political uncertainty and frequently changing governments not just in the UK, but around the globe. We are of the view, that a material correction in stock markets is necessary before new real trends are evidenced and it is likely that this correction may well be underway at the time of writing this report. However, the US market appears to be more resilient to a deeper market correction despite the uncertainty and the economic head winds. The fact that the US has a huge reserve of cheaper energy in the form of locally produced natural gas has been particularly helpful for high energy dependant industries in North America.

African Pioneer Plc ("APP"), which forms a significant portion of Tiger's investment portfolio is extremely well placed in Southern Africa, a region which has recently benefitted from discoveries and major company resurgence. Both its Zambian and Botswanan joint ventures are showing good progress, whilst APP's "in house" managed Ongombo project in Namibia has produced significant copper and gold results in a recent drilling programme.

Despite a gloomy short-term outlook, the Board remain optimistic that the underlying fundamentals for a broad range of commodities particularly for those metals needed for electric vehicle manufacturing and the renewable energy space are better than ever in history. We are determined, despite the current negativity that currently permeates our sector, to remain focussed and to use our expertise to add interesting and innovative deals to Tiger's portfolio with a view to building shareholder value.
