Enquiries 

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Shareholders will be aware that in October 2024 the Company entered into an Exclusivity Agreement with Horizon Energy Corporation LLC to acquire its UK subsidiaries and in so doing to seek to participate in the Dabinett exploration well. The Board believed this to be an exceptional opportunity with a high potential NPV if successful. The transaction was predicated on a number of requirements being satisfied. After extensions to the Exclusivity Agreement backstop date the farm out process had reached a natural conclusion without an additional partner being secured. It was obvious that sufficient capital could not be raised in the prevailing UK political climate to fund the entirety of the well and the Exclusivity Agreement lapsed. The Company re-energised its business development programme to seek an Initial Transaction.

Around the same time of the ending of the Exclusivity Agreement, our co-founder and Managing Director, Edward Dawson decided to step down for personal reasons. Edward remains a significant and supportive shareholder. Since the end of June we have:

1. Transitioned all the management administration;

2. Radically reduced overhead and costs adopting a revised Remuneration Policy;

3. Held an AGM and GM which amongst other things:

· Delivered a continuity resolution by the shareholders to continue to seek an Initial Transaction;

· Realigned the share capital to provide a lower par value;

· Secured share authorities for the future; and

· Revised the Articles of Association. 

Post balance sheet event

In August 2025 the Company carried out a successful placement of 29.9m new ordinary shares raising £149,500, before expenses.

We have overhauled our business development programme. Screening of opportunities has intensified, and the remit widened. We are 'filling the opportunity hopper' from wider sources and considering an array of possibilities. 

It is the Board's expectation that the reduction in burn rate and the added funds we have secured in the recent placing, combined with existing funds, will be sufficient to see us through to an announcement on a possible Initial Transaction.

I wish to place on record my thanks to my fellow director Nick Pillar, our business development consultant Peter Elliott, our advisory team, our past directors and to shareholders for their support and encouragement.

Executive Chairman

1. General information

The Company's principal activity is that of a Special Purpose Acquisition Company. Milton was formed with the intention to identify and acquire a suitable business opportunity or opportunities and undertake an acquisition or merger or a series of acquisitions or mergers.

2. Basis of preparation

The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority and with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". It should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2025 for full details of the accounting policies adopted.

The interim financial statements are presented in pounds sterling, rounded to the nearest pound.

The condensed interim financial information for the six months ended 30 July 2025 and 2024 have not been audited or reviewed and do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The comparative financial information for the year ended 31 January 2025 has been derived from the audited financial statements for that period. A copy of the statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2025 has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the independent auditors on those financial statements was unqualified and did not contain a statement under Sections 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as they apply to the financial statements of the Company for the six months ended 31 July 2025 and as applied in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 and under the historical cost convention or fair value where appropriate. They have also been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies expected to be applied for the year ending 31 January 2026 and which are also consistent with those set out in the statutory accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 January 2025.

3. Going concern basis of preparation

The Company had £262,711 in cash at the period end. The Directors have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis as they consider that the Company has adequate funding. In addition to these funds the Company has received the proceeds of a recent post period end placement and subscription.

4. Principal risks at 31 July 2025 and key changes since the 2025 annual report

The Directors have reviewed the principal risks facing the Company and concluded for the remaining six months of the financial year that there are no significant changes to those disclosed in the 2025 annual financial statements. A full description of the Company's principal risks can be found on page 10 of the 2025 annual financial statements.

5. Loss per share

The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Ordinary shares in issue during the period, excluding Ordinary shares purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares.

The loss and weighted average number of shares used for calculating the diluted loss per share are identical to those for the basic loss per share. The outstanding share options would have the effect of reducing the loss per share and would therefore not be dilutive under IAS 33 'Earnings per Share'.

5 Dividends

The Directors do not propose to declare a dividend for the period.
