Investment Update
The Directors of Marechale Capital plc (AIM: MAC) are pleased to note the
announcements by Burgh Island Hotel ("Burgh Island") and Weardale Lithium
Limited ("Weardale"), companies in which it holds investments.
In 2018, Marechale acted as adviser on the acquisition of Burgh Island. The
Company notes that, on 10 May 2023, Burgh Island announced its proposed sale.
In the event that its sale concludes, the Directors of Marechale anticipate
there will likely be an opportunity to realise its investment. Marechale holds
an interest in 4.9 per cent. of the equity of Burgh Island and the quantum of
any realisation will depend on the completion terms of the sale. The Company
will provide a further update to the market in the event of the completion of
the sale.
Further, the Company also notes the announcement by Weardale on 11 May 2023
advising that Weardale, a lithium exploration and development business based in
the Weardale Valley, County Durham in the north of England, has successfully
extracted lithium carbonate from geothermal brines and that these positive
tests results are amenable for lithium production. Weardale further states
that it now intends to accelerate and scale-up of its testing of increased
volumes of lithium carbonate towards demonstrating commercial scale production.
The Directors of Marechale are pleased to note the positive developments at
Weardale, a company in which it holds an 8.5 per cent. interest.
When the Company's half-yearly results were reported on the 2 December 2022,
the Company's balance sheet showed net assets of approximately £3.48 million,
representing approximately 3.6 pence of value per share in issue.
