REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Corporate
During the reporting period, Red Emperor continued to evaluate potential deal opportunities, primarily in the global oil and gas sector. While mainly focused on exploration projects, the Board has continued to be very mindful of protecting the Company's balance sheet and by extension, shareholder value.
There were also a number of potential projects considered during the period in the wider natural resources sector outside of oil and gas cognisant that pursuant to AIM Rule 15, the Company is required to make an acquisition, or acquisitions, which constitute(s) a reverse takeover under AIM Rule 14, or alternatively seek re-admission to trading on AIM as an investing company pursuant to AIM Rule 8 (either being a "Re-admission Transaction"), either of which would require, inter alia, the preparation and publication of an AIM admission document and a full re-admission process. If a Re-admission Transaction is not completed by 20 July 2021 admission to trading on AIM of the Company's ordinary shares will be cancelled pursuant to AIM Rule 41.
The Company has recently made an application to ASX in respect of a proposed transaction under ASX Listing Rule 11.1, which is under consideration, and the Company's ordinary shares remain suspended from trading on both ASX and AIM.
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE
There have been no significant events subsequent to the end of the reporting period to the date of this report which significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Group in future reporting periods.
