Keith Teare, retiring non-executive Chairman, commented:

"During 2015 Minds + Machines has successfully transitioned itself into a commercially focused registry business that has taken the necessary strategic decisions to allow it to deliver significant growth in the coming year. I am confident that the Company now has the appropriate executive and management structures in place to execute on that strategy."

Antony Van Couvering, CEO of Minds + Machines, commented:

"We would like to thank the retiring Board members for their excellent counsel, particularly during 2015, where the focus has been on reducing operational costs whilst driving sales and revenue to ensure profitability in our underlying operations in 2016. We now look forward to demonstrating the intrinsic value of our portfolio of TLDs in this fast developing marketplace. We believe the appointments announced today will allow us to further deliver on that goal."
