REVIEW REPORT BY THE CHAIRMAN

I am pleased to inform that for the financial year ended June 30, 2024, the overall performance of the Board has been satisfactory. However, there will always be room for improvement. Although the Company has been going through rough times in the recent past, especially due to the current economic situation of the country the Board has coped up well and have shown to be effective to the best of their abilities. The Board of Directors of the Company received agendas and supporting written material including follow up materials in sufficient time prior to the board and its committee meetings.

Furthermore, exciting times lie ahead for the Company as diversification strategies are being explored which will eventually benefit our shareholders.
