Eurasia Mining (EUA), the palladium, platinum, rhodium, iridium and gold mining company, announced that further to the announcements dated 27 June 2024, 29 July 2024 and 28 August 2024, its audit for the year ended 31 December 2023 is nearing completion, and the Company expects to publish its Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023 by the end of this week. Trading in the Company’s ordinary shares on AIM remains suspended pending publication of the Annual Report. In accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules, the admission of the Company’s shares to trading on AIM will be cancelled if the Company’s shares are suspended from trading for six months.
Comment: Hands up those who thought that EUA was not coming back from suspension and would be booted off AIM. Hands up those who have a vested interest in this happening. Of course, the Nomad system means that companies pay 6 figure sums annually to a third party just to make their RNS’s appear as negative as possible, witness the reference to Rule 41 of the AIM Rules, which is no longer appropriate given the imminent publication of EUA’s accounts, but worth throwing in just to make the company look as bad as possible.
Jersey Oil & Gas (JOG), an independent upstream oil and gas company focused on the UK Continental Shelf region of the North Sea, noted the press release issued today by NEO Energy, the Buchan Horst licence operator, following the UK Government’s recent announcement concerning its plans for a consultation on new environmental guidance for oil and gas firms. The Government has determined that such guidance is necessary in light of the recent Supreme Court “Finch” ruling requiring regulators to consider the impact of hydrocarbon combustion, Scope 3 emissions, in the Environmental Impact Assessment for new projects. The Government is aiming to conclude its consultation by Spring 2025. JOG said whilst demand for hydrocarbons continues during the energy transition, homegrown energy is the right solution. A project like Buchan has the potential to produce some of the lowest emission barrels of any project globally. Emissions arising from the combustion or use of those hydrocarbons will result in the same emissions as comparable barrels regardless of where they are produced. Homegrown energy should always trump imports, creating domestic economic growth, jobs and valuable UK tax receipts.
Comment: No, it is always better to put the UK even more in energy security debt by importing from other countries, and letting them produce all the emissions instead.
Good Energy Group (GOOD), the 100% renewable electricity supplier and energy services provider has launched a new electricity tariff for EV drivers, offering the lowest off-peak rate available on the market. Good Energy EV Charge is fixed until September 2025, and offers five hours of off-peak charging between midnight and 5am for just 6.75p per kWh. GOOD said it wanted to pull out the stops for customers with this tariff to make it as economical as possible to charge and drive an electric vehicle. Not only is it the cheapest off-peak rate on the market and a competitive peak rate, it’s also the only EV tariff that comes bundled with a premium subscription to the UK’s favourite public EV charging app.
Comment: Presumably range anxiety stricken EV drivers can charge up at every petrol station these days, and all the charging points work.
EDX Medical Group (AQSE:EDX), which develops innovative digital diagnostic products and services supporting personalised treatments for cancer, heart disease and infectious diseases, announced it has signed a distribution agreement with Caris Life Sciences® (Caris), a leading US-based next-generation AI TechBio and precision medicine company. EDX said the signing of this agreement signifies a further major step forward in its strategy to provide clients with access to world-class diagnostic tools and services that can change the detection, treatment and outcome of cancer for patients.
Comment: There is of course no onus to cover any Aquis listed stock in the RNS Hotlist, but at least today’s news does explain why shares of EDX have risen in recent days, and why it is a cut above most companies listed on the challenger exchange.
Time To ACT (AQSE: TTA), an engineering-led group focused on technology for the energy transition supply chain, is pleased to announce the launch of its interactive investor hub. For both existing and prospective shareholders, the new investor hub brings all Time To ACT content into a single integrated platform to better inform and engage with investors and stakeholders. TTA said fostering transparent communication with its shareholders is a cornerstone of our strategy. Having listed on the Aquis Exchange on 29 May 2024, it is committed to top-tier shareholder engagement from the outset. Its new investor hub is a vital tool in this mission, offering current and prospective shareholders a wealth of video content, insights, and updates about our activities and vision. We invite our stakeholders to explore the hub and share their feedback as we refine and expand our communication efforts.
Comment: TTA looks to finesse its Aquis listing by gathering up interested parties on its hub. If nothing else, the company appears keen.
SEEEN (SEEN), the global media and technology platform that delivers Key Video Moments to drive Video Commerce and transform its clients’ video profitability, announced that Adrian Hargrave, Chief Executive Officer, purchased a total of 228,873 ordinary shares of 0.1 pence each in the Company on 30 August 2024 at a price of 2.5 pence per Ordinary Share via his SIPP.

Comment: Hargrave continues to lead from the front both in terms of buying SEEEN shares, but also spreading the message with regard to what his company does, and its value in commercial terms to client companies.
