Material uncertainty over going concern
Nevertheless, given the unpredictable nature of the geopolitical situation and the inherent volatility of cryptocurrency markets, there remains a risk that future events could have a material adverse impact on the Group and Company’s trading performance and financial position that may require the Group and Company to raise additional working capital to advance its projects within the 12 months following the date of approval of these financial statements. Management has successfully raised money in the past, but there is no guarantee that adequate funds will be subsequently raised when needed in the future. These uncertainties represent a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt upon the Group and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 | 2025-12-31 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 22.8% | 53.4% | — | |
| Current ratio | 10.14x | 1.12x | 3.71x | |
| Interest cover | — | — | -16.05x |
Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Significant events
- “As at 6 February 2026, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in Hong Kong, GemR Corporation Limited ("GEMR HK"), has acquired an aggregate of 9,000,0000 Bitcoin ("BTC") for total execution consideration of approximately US$633,200,000, excluding trading fees of approximately US$1,484.60. Including trading fees, the total cash outlay was approximately US$634,684.60. This is a non-adjusting event and does not affect the 31 December 2025 year end balances as the purchases were executed after yearend.”
- “During Q1 2026, heavy rainfall and significant flooding occurred across the Limpopo Province, causing damaged infrastructure, inaccessible roads, and disruptions to water and electricity supply. The flooding did not cause significant physical damage to the plant, equipment or mine infrastructure at the Gravelotte mine. However, elevated water levels have required sustained dewatering and site access has been intermittently affected. Dewatering and recovery activities are underway. Following dewatering activities the mine would be able to restart production.”
