Should shareholders grant approval at the forthcoming annual general meeting, the timing of implementation will be left to the discretion of the board of directors.\n\nManagement stated that the consolidation has been proposed due to the current share price structure, whereby minor absolute price movements result in disproportionately large percentage fluctuations. This dynamic contributes to elevated volatility in the company’s share price.\n\nThe board believes that establishing a higher rebased share price may facilitate a more stable and consistent valuation framework for the company’s equity.\n\nThe proposed consolidation forms part of a broader strategic reorientation towards upstream activities. Key elements of this strategy include the anticipated completion of Chariot’s offshore Angola transaction, the divestment of its renewables division, incremental oil and gas production revenues, and the pursuit of additional development and exploration opportunities across the African continent.\n\nThe annual general meeting has been scheduled for 22 September at 10.00 am and will take place at The Mayfair Hotel in London."}
