CEO statement

Dear shareholders and investors, 

We are working hard to implement and build on the major change we have made in the corporate direction of Crown since the start of 2023 and during this year. In January, we signed a Letter of Intent followed, at the beginning of February, by a Share Purchase Agreement whereby we have acquired 85% of SmarTee S.a.r.l., a Luxembourg company which is the parent holding company of the Italian registered AccYouRate Group.  The total acquisition price is Euros 163 million of which we have now paid Euros 75 million and with the balance payable in 8 instalments every six months.

The AccYouRate Group focuses on medical grade wearable technologies and holds various patents focused on advanced and cutting-edge technologies. AccYouRate is able to produce wearable textiles, currently in the form of a ‘smart T-shirt' enabling monitoring of the wearer’s bio signals and transmission of those to the cloud, where a comprehensive biomedical database is hosted.

We see great value in our technology, from the smart garments that can be produced, the health monitoring services that can be provided, the medical information that can be gathered through our algorithmic analyses, the medical predictions that can be extrapolated from that data, and the substantial database of medical information that AccYouRate is building up.

This is a very exciting step forward and a material change of direction for Crown into the rapidly expanding and socially responsible world of medical technologies. We now have established a solid starting point for further execution on our new vision to move Crown into more socially and environmentally sustainable businesses. I am truly proud to report that we now embarked on our journey to transform our company for the benefit of both the planet and our shareholders. Our Board continues to look at various options for Crown’s new business and for our remaining existing businesses. We are reviewing our current listing to ensure that Crown, now focusing on investing in high growth technologies, is strategically positioned to grow and create value for our shareholders going forward.

 

ASSET DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT

The gentle improvement in the market for office and residential rentals in Angola continues.  The higher sustained price of oil as well as the growth in economic activities in the country have been important factors in firming up the market.  The strengthening of the Kwanza exchange rate has also been to our benefit.

Although price pressures continue to remain, we still see lower vacancy rates in our properties and expect demand to remain relatively firm given the attractiveness of the locations of these properties.

ENERGY

Our income from the Sale and Purchase Agreement of October 2021 continues to come in regularly. We have now received as of April this year a total of USD $99 million with another $81 million securely due to come in by October 2026.

In May we announced that we have withdrawn from the South African Licence. This ends our active participation in the oil and gas industry. I am confident in the way Crown now operates our current business areas while moving into our new more sustainable business direction, and I am truly looking forward to continuing this journey and to make the most of what the future has to offer.
