Company Update
In the announcement on 19 June 2017 that the Company's continuation resolution had not been passed, the Board stated that it would put forward proposals to commence the process for an orderly realisation of the assets of the Company.
Therefore, the Board of Phaunos wishes to announce the following:
The Company will shortly be sending documents to shareholders to convene a General Meeting to be held during August 2017 to consider a number of proposals including:
(a) A change of investment policy to permit the Company to sell its investment portfolio with the objective of maximising returns to shareholders, taking into account the ability of potential buyers to complete transactions in a timely manner. The policy will permit the Company to retain cash insofar as it is reasonably required to provide working capital or other commitments to existing investments with the objective of maximising their sale value. No new investments will be entered into. The Company will return excess cash to shareholders in a form the Directors reasonably believe will be the most efficient for shareholders, which may take the form of dividends, compulsory redemptions of shares, tender offers or other mechanisms.
(b) A change in Board composition to better reflect the needs of the Company as the managed wind down process begins. The Board has engaged Search Agents to seek out individuals with expertise in forestry, the sale of real assets and other skills relevant to the effective management of the realisation of the Company's portfolio and the wind up of the Company. The Board anticipates making one or two, initially interim, appointments in the period up to the appointment of the new Board. The Board intends that each of its current members, including the Chairman, will stand down, after a process of orderly hand over, once replacements are appointed.
In order to ensure that shareholders are treated equitably, the Company will no longer buy back its shares.
The Company will make a further announcement shortly in relation to the first return of cash to shareholders.
