Cloudbreak Discovery Plc

('Cloudbreak', or 'the Company')

Update on Assets and Projects

Cloudbreak Discovery Plc, (LSE: CDL), the natural resource project generator, is pleased to provide an update on its portfolio of assets and projects and to redefine its strategic focus.

·      Strategic focus on near term revenue, project pivots, transition finance and project generation

·      Refocused portfolio following an inflection year for the Company and the completion of the settlement agreements with former directors and management ("Settlement Agreements") in late 2023

·    Streamlined board offering strong management to support growth of the Company to generate value for a supportive shareholder base.

Following completion of the Settlement Agreements in late 2023 which included the disposal of certain assets, the Company's current asset and project status is set out in the table below.

Notes:

1.        Tradeable securities do not include shares that Cloudbreak holds in unlisted companies

2.        NSR = Net Smelter Royalty

Cloudbreak disposed of certain non-core assets as part of the Settlement Agreements and has chosen to relinquish certain projects with no financial merit or financial impact, which have been provided for in the Company's accounts and details will be disclosed in full in the forthcoming interim report.

Following the Board and Management changes in 2023, Cloudbreak is in the process of refining its investment and acquisition strategy in the energy related minerals sector, with focus on:

·      Near term revenue or project pivots

·      Transition finance

·      Project generation

Cloudbreak will acquire or invest in either quoted or private companies, partnerships, joint ventures or direct interests in projects where it can support a strong management team as well as projects that are relevant to its investment thesis.

The Board will target investments that offer substantial shareholdings in investee companies to maximise the potential of returns to shareholders. However, investment opportunities will be considered on a case-by-case basis and minority interest investments will not be ruled out.  Cloudbreak's Board and their supporting team have considerable experience across the mining and oil and gas sectors in a wide range of countries.

Andrew Male, Director, Interim CEO, states: "The combination of Cloudbreak tradeable securities, debentures and the projects enable the Company to position itself well going forward. We intend to create and build new revenue streams enabling the Company to successfully build a stronger underlying value proposition."
