Net Asset Value
Baker Steel Resources Trust Limited (the "Company") announces its unaudited net asset value per share at 28 February 2022:
Net asset value per Ordinary Share: 91 pence
The NAV per share has decreased by 4.7% against the unaudited NAV at 31 January 2022, largely due to a reduction in the carrying values of Polar Acquisition Limited and Azarga Metals Corporation following the Russian invasion of Ukraine as explained in more detail below.
The Company had a total of 106,462,502 Ordinary Shares in issue with a further 700,000 shares held in treasury as at 28 February 2022.

Write down of Russian based assets
Following the recent invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces and the imposition of sanctions on certain Russian individuals and institutions, the Company has reviewed the carrying value of Polar Acquisition Limited ("PAL) which holds a royalty over the Prognoz silver project in far eastern Russia, owned by Polymetal International PLC (Polymetal).
Although Polymetal is a Jersey registered company and is a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index of the London Stock Exchange, the majority of its assets are situated in Russia and Kazakhstan. Polymetal has stated that it believes that targeted sanctions are unlikely to be imposed directly on the company, however the past few days have seen significant volatility and major falls in Polymetal's share price. First payable production from the Prognoz Mine is not due until the second half of 2023, however the fall in the share price of Polymetal and other companies with projects in Russia is an indication of the market's view of increased risk in relation to investments in that country. Accordingly the Company has decided to reduce the carrying value of PAL by 50%.
The Company also has a convertible loan to TSX-V listed Azarga Metals Corporation whose principal asset is the Unkur Copper-Silver Project in the Zabaikalsky province in eastern Russia. Likewise it has been decided to decrease the carrying value of the convertible loan by 50%.
The carrying values of both companies will continue to be reviewed in the light of events in Ukraine and the application of sanctions. Following this write down the Company's exposure to Russian projects is approximately 5% of NAV.
