Result of Annual General Meeting 
 
 
 
 
Ambrian Capital plc ("Ambrian Capital" or "the Company") announces that at its 
Annual General Meeting held today all resolutions were passed. 
 
 
Lawrence Banks, Chairman of Ambrian Capital, updated shareholders with the 
following statement : 
 
 
"Ambrian Capital has had an excellent start to the year with revenues and 
profits in the first five months ahead of the same period last year. Our balance 
sheet remains highly liquid. 
 
 
Our Commodities business, and in particular physical metals merchanting, has 
benefitted from record flows of refined copper into China and the sharp rally in 
the copper price since the start of the year. The Corporate Finance & Equities 
business has seen a pick-up in activity across the board, with our stockbroking 
and market making activities performing well as a result of the rebound in the 
share prices of natural resources companies. We are also advising on a number of 
major M&A assignments and have completed several equity financings in the mining 
and cleantech sectors. 
 
 
Although Chinese imports of metals are declining from the high levels we have 
experienced in recent months, Ambrian Capital's mix of businesses - equities, 
futures and physicals - positions it well to benefit from the eventual recovery 
in world-wide demand for natural resources."
