Non-Mainstream Pooled Investments | Announced - 28 January 2014

El Oro Ltd. ('the Company') Registration No: 49778 of 1 Le Truchot, St Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 1WD.

The Board of the Company notes the rules of the UK Financial Conduct Authority ('FCA') on the promotion of non-mainstream pooled investments, effective from 1 January 2014.

The Board confirms that it conducts the Company's affairs, and intends to continue to conduct its affairs, so that the Company's shares will be 'excluded securities' under the FCA's new rules.

This is on the basis that the Company, which is resident outside the EEA, would qualify for approval as an investment trust if resident and listed in the United Kingdom. Therefore, the Company's shares will not amount to non-mainstream pooled investments. Accordingly, the promotion of the Company's shares will not be subject to the FCA's restriction on promotion of non-mainstream pooled investments.

The Independent Directors of El Oro are pleased to announce that they have reached agreement in principle on the terms of the disposal of Danby to Matchtape, a newly incorporated company wholly owned by the Chairman, Robin Parish. The Disposal is to be implemented via a scheme of arrangement under section 425 of the Act pursuant to which, in return for the share capital in Danby being indirectly acquired by Matchtape, Robin Parish will cancel a number of his existing El Oro Stock Units and Danby will cancel the 154,535 El Oro Stock Units it currently holds.

Based on an independent valuation of Danby's principal asset, Walcot, at £3.1 million, the value of Danby has been agreed at £3.225 million. Accordingly, as consideration for the Disposal, 837,662 existing El Oro Stock Units owned by Robin Parish will be cancelled by way of reduction of capital pursuant to the Scheme. The number of RP Stock Units to be cancelled and reduced has been calculated by reference to the average closing mid-market price for the ten Business Days prior to the date of this announcement (385p).

The Disposal will be conditional, amongst other things, upon:

  • the approval of El Oro Stockholders at a El Oro EGM;
  • the approval of the Class Meeting Stockholders at the Class Meeting; and
  • the sanction of the Scheme by the Court.

Background to and reasons for the Independent Directors' recommendation of the Disposal

The major asset held in Danby is Walcot which is the family home of the Parish Family. A lease has existed since 1957 between the Company and the Hon. Mrs E C Parish, allowing her to live at Walcot as a tenant. Robin Parish and his wife and children have also lived at Walcot since 1999 and pay an annual rent, as has Mrs Kumaramangalam, the eldest daughter of the Hon. Mrs E C Parish, and her family for a considerable number of years.

FPDSavills Limited have valued Walcot, on the basis of its existing condition and the likely protected tenancy of the Hon. Mrs E.C. Parish, at £3.1 million. Other assets currently held in Danby that Matchtape will be acquiring are assorted fixtures and fittings, a loan to, and a 20% shareholding in, Spital Square Limited and small amounts of farming stock and other debtors.

For some time now, the board of El Oro, including Mr Parish himself, has recognised that it is not appropriate for the Company to own the Parish Family home. In addition from a management point of view, Danby is primarily a trading and agricultural concern which, for some time, has not sat easily within El Oro with its focus as a share and securities dealing company.

The Independent Directors consider that the Scheme and the Disposal are in the best interests of El Oro Stockholders for the following reasons:

  • a. Investor perception
  • As outlined above, Danby, Walcot and their associated activities are incompatible with the core El Oro business and divert management time. The board is also concerned that continued ownership of Danby and Walcot by El Oro is unsatisfactory and indeed unacceptable in the views of investors and potential investors in the Company.
  • b. Elimination of losses
  • Danby has sustained a trading loss in each of the last five years and is expected to continue to do so in the foreseeable future. The Disposal is expected to result in the elimination of such losses for El Oro going forward.
  • c. Enhanced El Oro Group net assets per El Oro Stock Unit
  • The cancellation of the Scheme Stock Units will lead to a reduction in the issued share capital and hence an immediate increase in El Oro Group net assets (taking investments at market value) per El Oro Stock Unit, a key performance measurement of El Oro. In the view of the board, any increase in El Oro Group net assets (taking investments at market value) per El Oro Stock Unit should directly flow through to the market price for each El Oro Stock Unit.
  • d. Reduced dividend cost
  • The cancellation of the Scheme Stock Units will lead to a reduction in the cash outlay required to pay dividends to stockholders. The dividend payout for the year ended 31 December 2003 was 11p. At that level the cancellation of the Scheme Stock Units will save the Company £109,142 per annum.

Other options

As an alternative to the Scheme, the Independent Directors have considered the possibility of marketing Walcot more widely and selling it to a third party. However, they have also taken account of the following factors:

  • Walcot is perceived to be a 'trophy asset'. However, the absence of vacant possession due to the existing likely protected tenancy enjoyed by the Hon. Mrs E C Parish, at a time of a weakening of the property market generally, may, in the view of the Independent Directors, be a significant deterrent to a buyer;
  • Walcot itself is in need of substantial modernisation and redecoration which would be for the account of a new purchaser. In particular there is extensive asbestos throughout the house which would be both hazardous and expensive to remove; and
  • It is likely that a third party buyer may prefer to acquire Walcot rather than Danby, which would leave El Oro to deal with the ongoing loss making accommodation and agricultural businesses.

The Independent Directors consider that the proposed Disposal of Danby pursuant to the Scheme at the present time is a long overdue resolution to an unsatisfactory situation and provides certainty on terms which are attractive to the Company and in the interests of El Oro Stockholders.

El Oro and its advisers are currently preparing a circular that will be sent to stockholders setting out in detail the reasons for the Disposal and details of the Scheme. The document will also contain the advice of the Independent Directors, who are being advised by BDO Stoy Hayward Corporate Finance, recommending El Oro Stockholders to vote in favour of the proposed Disposal. This document will be dispatched to El Oro Stockholders as soon as practicable.

Proposed Cancellation of Listing on the Official List and Admission to trading on AIM and Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting Introduction

In the Chairman's statement published on 28 April 2006 within the second interim results, stockholders were informed that the Board was, inter alia, reviewing the Company's listing on the Official List of the UK Listing Authority. In the light of recent legislation and the regulatory burden facing listed companies, your Board has decided that the future of your company would be enhanced by transferring to the Alternative Investment Market. This market, operated and regulated by the London Stock Exchange plc, has an established reputation with investors and analysts. We believe your company will be better served being admitted to trading alongside others of a similar stature and sharing characteristics in common than continuing beside the behemoths of the quoted arena.

Accordingly, the Company intends to apply formally to the UKLA to cancel the listing of its Stock Units on the Official List, and in accordance with the Listing Rules, an Extraordinary General Meeting is being convened at which a resolution will be proposed to cancel the listing of the Company's Stock Units on the Official List and to authorise the Directors to apply for the Company's issued Stock Units to be admitted to trading on AIM.

A circular is today being sent to stockholders to provide them with details of the business to be conducted at the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company to be held at 41 Cheval Place, London SW7 1EW at 11.15 a.m. on 28 June 2006 and to explain why the Directors believe that the Proposals are in the best interests of the Company and its Stockholders as a whole.

The Company has appointed Grant Thornton Corporate Finance to act as its nominated adviser in relation to the Company's proposed admission to AIM.

At the EGM, Stockholders will be asked to approve the Cancellation in light of the proposed transfer of trading of the Stock Units to AIM. In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Resolution must be carried by a majority of not less than 75 per cent. of the holders of the Stock Units (being entitled to do so) who vote in person or by proxy. Stockholders' approval is not required for Admission. Accordingly, the Resolution will be proposed as an extraordinary resolution.

Also, in accordance with the Listing Rules, cancellation of the Listing will (if the Resolution is passed at the EGM) take effect not less than 20 business days after the date of the EGM and it is expected that such Cancellation and Admission will occur on or around 27 July 2006.

Background to and reasons for the Proposals

The Board has felt for some time that the cost of administering the compliance burden that applies to listed companies is considerable and disproportionate to the size of the Company.

The obligations of an AIM company are similar to those of a company on the Official List with certain exceptions, of which the significant ones are referred to below:

  • For AIM companies, prior shareholder approval is only required for reverse-takeovers and disposals that result in a fundamental change of business. Under the Listing Rules, a broader range of transactions requires shareholder approval.
  • There is no requirement under the AIM Rules for listing particulars or admission documents for further issues of securities although there may be other legal reasons for a prospectus to be required.
  • Under the AIM Rules, a Nominated Adviser is required at all times which has ongoing responsibilities to the London Stock Exchange. In addition, a broker is required at all times.
  • The Combined Code does not apply directly to AIM companies although it is still considered good practice to comply with the provisions in so far as they are relevant to the size and type of the AIM company.

Further, the Directors believe that AIM provides a more flexible environment and a proven successful alternative in which the Company will better be able to:

  • Achieve its business and strategic objectives;
  • Reduce the formalities associated with maintaining a listing on a regulated market, whilst continuing to provide a platform for trading in its Stock Units; and
  • Reduce costs and formalities associated with future potential transactions and other actions by the Company.

Liquidity on AIM is currently provided by market makers who are member firms of the London Stock Exchange and are obliged to quote a price in shares between 8.00 a.m. and 4.30 p.m. on business days.

As part of the AIM admission process, the Company will publish before the EGM, on its website, special purpose audited consolidated accounts prepared in accordance with IFRS in respect of the period to 31 December 2005. Following Admission, the Company will continue to prepare its consolidated accounts in accordance with IFRS. The Company and the other members of its group will also, going forward, prepare statutory individual company accounts under UK GAAP, which, as the Company will no longer be listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange, do not need to be prepared in accordance with FRS 26.

Chairman's Statement | Announced - 31 December 2007

The Group profit before tax for the six months to 31 December 2007 was £4,810,071 (six months to 31 December 2006: £3,049,025). Group net assets at 31 December 2007 under IFRS, taking all assets at fair value were £81,588,816 equal to 757p per stock unit, (31 December 2006: £77,167,354 equal to 712p per stock unit).

The results for the half-year have since been overshadowed, by continuing turmoil in the financial markets; the collapse of funds such as Peloton, Focus and Carlyle Capital amongst others, and more significantly the rescue of Bear Stearns, underline the gravity of storms swirling through Western economies. An analysis of the indebtedness of some Baltic and East European nations, along with Iceland and Turkey, can only exacerbate this sense of foreboding.

Sadly, by no means is this the story of events unforetold: the consistent condemnation of derivatives from the hallowed halls of Omaha and Pasadena, warnings from the Governor of the Bank of England and the unremitting Cassandra-like criticism of the US credit boom by the late Dr. Richebacher amongst others, were all happily ignored in the Gadarene rush to amass ever more Gargantuan empires based, as it now appears, on foundations of sand.

The monstrous maelstrom mowing down the mighty and the minnows has made the proud and powerful into mendicant monks seeking salvage from the Federal Reserve or the Bank of England; meanwhile their erstwhile leaders set off into the sun clutching their Brobdingnagian booty, regardless of seeming success or apparent failure.

We have not been immune to declines in the price of property assets as the market anticipates a falling residential and commercial property market. With a wearyingly familiar sense of inevitability, where market conditions of themselves are challenging, Government action has or will exacerbate the situation: in the case of property by imposing rates on vacant property, along with the ridiculous HIPS on residential property; in the case of our Brewery Estate investments, by the malicious assault on smoking within the confines of the pubs, followed hard on its heels by the determination to banish the sale of cigarette vending machines; the decline in profits is beginning to become apparent, albeit in the dim light of dawn. This attack on the pub sector has been compounded by raising the tax on alcohol over and above inflation. Historically, well managed and monitored pubs have presented a secure and agreeable venue for moderate drinking and convivial encounter; wholly at variance with the effects of the Government's 24-hour drinking and changes to the licensing laws; to which a Parliamentary committee has attributed the spread of lager louts in city centres, and other unattractive phenomena.

As if this madness was not enough, the eponymous Harman now proposes to ban repartee and terms of endearment from bars and stores, to give those litigious members of society another chance to sue for supposed or imagined slights. What a desperate state of affairs, to see our vocabulary monitored by the legal profession, under the guise of preventing 'sex discrimination' and our hostelries emasculated and age-old beverages consigned to history by ministers and civil-servants in their plush glass palaces drinking Lattes and Frappes, whilst imposing ever-more onerous taxes and restrictions on the traditional tipples and tittle-tattle of the British people.

This urge to interfere and 'act', rather than 'sitting pretty, doing nothing' is only too apparent, now that the Government has seen the light and embraced the birth of a new Nuclear Age: sadly, it sold Westinghouse, the leader in that field, to Toshiba, in the same futile fashion it flicked away Qinetiq to Carlyle, and our historic Gold reserves: all first-class National assets.

The British Government has paid obscene obeisance to the European Union, ignoring every promise and poll to align us with that unholy herd, and now assaults the Old Commonwealth and its rights of entry, despite the longevious and formidable ties of blood, trade, tradition and civilisation shared over so many years, with its huge contribution to trade and economy for all parties. Such a perverse policy reaches its nadir in the refusal of residence rights to the Gurkha soldiers who have fought so valiantly to defend us; whilst Post Offices and Village Schools fall to the same Statist or Stalinist philosophy; hill farms and the landscape are discarded, and non-doms are sacrificed for a mess of pottage; playing-fields, including those of Jersey, are pillaged, and even mince-meat, a staple of the beef industry, is confronted with a mad new EU directive; it is remarkable indeed, given the vast reduction in public swimming pools, despite an obligation for their provision, and almost complete destruction of diving-boards, that England can suddenly discover a European Diving Champion.

The attack on 'Risk' is now a central plank of national 'elf and safety policy, producing generations less and less able to cope with the every day and more substantial crises of life. It also engenders a vast infrastructure which, as the FSA has proved, is horrendously expensive and ultimately incapable of dealing with situations once resolved discreetly, or managed with a raised eyebrow in the confines of the old establishment, but mostly driven by common sense and discernment.

The necessity and obligation facing our economy to cut both taxes and spending significantly has been denied by all parties, particularly the Conservatives in their Cyclops-post-Odysseus blindness driven by the inchoate urging of their spineless strategists. The symbolism of Banana Republic's arrival in Britain is perhaps apposite.

The deflation of domestic residences whose rise had created the credit boom both in Britain and the United States is now making its sombre black marks in the history books: quite possibly further wreckage may yet descend from the ether as the deflated balloon subsides across the Western world and beyond. This has profound and negative consequences for consumer spending which is no longer underpinned by an annual increase in the value of an underlying asset. For the first time since 1945 the share of equity held by the individual in homes in the United States has fallen below 50%.

Proverbs 11 v 13 state; 'Happy is the man that findeth wisdom and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver and the gain thereof than fine gold.'

Wisdom and vision have been sadly lacking amongst our political and business leaders and the day of Reckoning is upon them. Given this absence, our vision is for the continued accumulation of the alternative, both Silver and Gold and the shares thereof. We congratulate Colin Loosemore of Archipelago who has received one of the required permits to develop the exciting mine at Toka Tindung. We have visited other promising projects in Chile and Argentina whilst remaining wary of political interference in various parts of the world. The inability of South Africa to provide adequate power for its burgeoning population and industry has enhanced metal prices for both Gold and Platinum. We are also increasing our exposure to the production of food, fertilizer and agricultural products and are heartened by the continued rise in MP Evans, an outstanding performer in the portfolio.

In conclusion the outlook for retail and housing remains distinctly gloomy, whilst the continuing rise in inter-bank rates bodes ill for the entire financial sector. We would be surprised albeit happy at any pick up in property prices.

We are however well placed in our traditional areas of strength particularly Basic Resources, Energy and Precious Metals. We would expect the latter especially to thrive in the current climate, and will attempt to restrain our excitement.

My thanks are due to my peripatetic Directors, our numerous advisers around the world, and the increasingly formidable team in Cheval Place led by Steve McKeane, Abbie playing in Midfield, and Vicky solid in defence: the Rooney, Ronaldo, Vidic triumvirate. Onwards to Victory.

Announcement of Intended Restructuring | Announced - 22 January 2009

The Directors of El Oro are pleased to announce proposals relating to a change in the corporate structure, strategy and organisation of the El Oro Group. These include creating a new Guernsey incorporated holding company in respect of which application will be made for its shares to be listed on the Official List of the Channel Islands Stock Exchange.

The Proposals will be effected by putting in place New El Oro as the new holding company for the El Oro Group by way of a scheme of arrangement under section 899 of the Companies Act, which requires the approval of the Scheme Stockholders and the sanction of the Court.

The Board believes El Oro's options in its current form are limited if it continues to be based only in the UK with its Stock Units admitted to trading on AIM. In essence, the Directors believe that El Oro's commercial objective is to be a collective investment vehicle. However, it is unable to enjoy the benefits normally associated with these vehicles while based solely in the UK.

In order to be competitive with other collective investment funds, the Board believes it is necessary to restructure the El Oro Group so as to allow New El Oro to be subject to a tax regime which makes it more comparable to vehicles such as unit trusts and investment trusts.

The move to the CISX will also make the New El Oro Shares eligible to be held in ISAs, which will be attractive to investors. The Directors believe that the CISX is well-regarded as a listing authority for investment funds and imposes administrative obligations which are appropriate for a company such as New El Oro.

In line with similar collective investment vehicles, following implementation of the Proposals, New El Oro intends putting in place the necessary arrangements to enable it to announce consolidated net asset value figures on a quarterly basis. This is expected to occur with effect from July 2009.

It is intended that the portfolio currently held by El Oro will be segmented into two discrete portfolios which will be managed along distinctly different lines and investment styles. It is currently proposed that:

  • i) the portfolio continuing to be vested in El Oro (and so in the UK) will be predominantly an income portfolio, focussing on stocks in relatively mature sectors (e.g. some, but not all, brewing, utility and mining stocks) which are typically characterised by high yields; and

  • ii) the remainder of the portfolio will comprise the stocks selected in pursuit of a blended value / growth investment style which seeks to identify companies which have good growth prospects which have not yet been fully recognised and priced into the market. These stocks will, insofar as possible, be transferred by way of dividend in specie to New El Oro.

The Directors, who have been advised by Auden Capital, consider that the Proposals are in the best interests of El Oro and Stockholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors will recommend unanimously that Stockholders vote in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the Court Meeting and the General Meeting, as they intend to do (or procure) in respect of their beneficial and non-beneficial interests, amounting, in aggregate, to 4,566,856 Stock Units, representing approximately 42.6 per cent. of El Oro's entire issued share capital.

The Proposals will be put to Stockholders at a Court Meeting which is expected to be convened on 26 February 2009. The Scheme also requires the sanction of the Court and the passing of the Special Resolution to be proposed at the General Meeting which is also expected to be convened on 26 February 2009.

Prior to the Scheme becoming effective, application will be made to the CISX for the New El Oro Shares to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the CISX's market for listed securities. It is expected that the New El Oro Shares will be listed on the CISX, and that dealings in them will commence, at 8.00 a.m. on 19 March 2009.

It is expected that the Scheme Circular setting out full details of the Proposals will be posted to Stockholders on or around 2 February 2009.

Posting of Scheme Circular | Announced - 2 February 2009

The Company announces that, further to the announcement made on 22 January 2009, the Scheme Circular was posted to stockholders on 2 February 2009. The Scheme Circular will also be available on the Company's website (www.eloro.co.uk).

The Company has been informed of the following transactions in its ordinary shares by Directors of the Company and a subsidiary company (El Oro and Exploration Company Limited) on 29 June 2009 as follows:
