Paul Dolan, Obtala CEO, commented: "Since the completion of the WoodBois acquisition we have conducted in-depth analysis in order to understand where the true competitive advantage and highest margin opportunities are, in sourcing and trading African timber. We are close to the completion of due diligence with an external trade finance provider that can best support our working capital requirements, not only for timber trading but also from the increased levels of production we are expecting in both Gabon and Mozambique in 2018. This combination of internal and external trade finance will allow us to optimize profitability while growing the timber trading division during 2018."
The facility is classified as a related party transaction under the AIM Rules. The independent directors, being Miles Pelham, Carnel Geddes and Kevin Milne, having consulted Northland Capital Partners as Nominated Adviser, consider that the terms are fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders are concerned.
