During this financial period the Board has continued to actively evaluate a number a potential transactions across a variety of different sectors. At this time no formal agreement has been entered into by the Company however the Board remains focused on delivering a transaction that brings both value and growth potential to the Shareholders of Auctus Growth in the near term.

Costs continue to be prudently monitored and are in line with the previously announced budget of GBP35,000 per annum. The Directors continue to draw no fees from the Company.

   4.     EARNINGS PER SHARE 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares adjusted to assume the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
