NAV SUMMARY OF HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE

(Table 1)

The Company's year-on-year NAVPS growth of 14.6%, although still creditable, was lower than the average NAVPS growth of 28.2% (CAGR) since March 2018. The period captured the initial impact of the conflict in Ukraine which was very challenging for markets overall; additionally global interest rates increased in an effort to curtail the growth in inflation. The cash component was significantly increased with the payment of US$1.0m on May 25, 2022 by our partner Ascendant Resources as part of the earn-in agreement on Redcorp Empreedimentos Lda.
