"The past half-year has presented challenges in the capital markets due to the upward trend in interest rates, leading to a general slowdown in markets. The heightened uncertainties have made investors exercise caution, impacting our ability to identify a suitable RTO (reverse takeover) candidate. Nevertheless, we are confident in the company's long-term prospects, and we are actively exploring all avenues to create shareholder value," Chair Malcolm Burne says.
