Chairman’s Statement

Summary of key political economic and stock market events year to date

The year to date (January to August 2025) has seen major political changes, economic shifts, and volatile stock market activity influenced by elections, trade policy, central bank maneuvers, and regional conflicts.

Key Political Events

• U.S. Presidential Transition: Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th U.S. President on January 20, reigniting the “America First” agenda, shifting global alliances, and sparking major protests across the U.S.
• Major Elections Worldwide: 2025 saw pivotal elections in Australia, Singapore, South Korea, Romania, Poland, Japan, and other key nations, altering domestic and regional policy direction.
• European Security and Ukraine: The Trump administration proposed a controversial peace plan for Ukraine, with discussions of territorial concessions and reduced NATO involvement; peace talks with Russia moved forward under this new U.S. stance.
• Leadership Changes and Early Elections: High-profile resignations (such as Justin Trudeau in Canada), parliamentary dissolutions, and early elections across Europe and the Asia-Pacific increased political uncertainty.
• Ongoing Geopolitical Tensions: Challenges around Israel-Hamas, the South China Sea, and U.S.-China rivalry persisted, with summits and international conferences such as the AI Action Summit and Munich Security Conference focusing on global security and technology risks.

Economic Headlines

• Trade Policy and Tariffs: The new U.S. administration negotiated new deals with Vietnam, Japan, and the EU, imposing tariffs that are higher than pre-2025 rates but lower than feared. Uncertainty around tariffs on Canada and the EU contributed to volatility, though markets were initially relieved by avoidance of an all-out trade war. 
• Central Bank Policy: U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell signaled a likely interest rate cut in September (down from 4.25% to 4.5%), responding to persistent inflation and a softening labor market. This boosted equity and bond markets in August.
• Inflation and Labor Markets: Inflation remains stubbornly above 2% in the U.S. and is expected to rise modestly before stabilizing. The U.S. unemployment rate has nudged up to 4.2%, with both supply and demand for labor weakening.

 Stock Market Developments

• Market Performance: Global developed market equities rose 1.3% in July, setting new all-time highs. Cyclical and tech stocks led early gains, while large-cap and rate-sensitive sectors surged after dovish Fed comments in August.
• Sector Highlights: Real estate, industrials, and consumer discretionary stocks rallied post-Fed policy signals, with U.S. mega-caps posting strong earnings. However, the Nasdaq weakened in late August amid concerns over AI infrastructure spending.
• Bond Yields and Rate Cut Expectations: U.S. bond yields fell after the Jackson Hole summit, reflecting increased expectations for multiple rate cuts by year end.

Ongoing Risks & Flashpoints

• Protests and Domestic Unrest: Intense protests in the U.S. over immigration, climate, and civil rights followed the political shift, while other countries, such as Kenya and Germany, saw social dissent and government changes.
• Regional Conflicts and Anniversaries: Continued conflict in Gaza, Russian activity in Ukraine, and expected flashpoints like the Israel-Hamas War anniversary keep geopolitical risk elevated.

Conclusion, 2025 has been defined by political realignment, moderate economic growth countered by inflation, active central bank intervention, and a stock market marked by both record highs and high uncertainty.

Operations

Real Estate

Hastings

As previously mentioned, the Company’s Hastings property has now been internally sanitised and we are actively seeking a new cornerstone tenant.

I am pleased to report that we have finally reached (at this stage verbal) settlement terms with a former tenant that vacated the premises without fulfilling their contractual obligations to return the property ‘fully repaired’, and in the condition they had received it.

Bristol

I am also pleased to report that we have received initial purchase offers for the Company’s Bristol property on competitive terms. We will keep the Market informed upon sale completion, which we anticipate could happen within the next couple of months.

Miscellaneous

The Company now owns 6.6 million shares of Thalassa Holdings and has committed to purchase more from the proceeds of future property sales. These shares will in due course be distributed, partially or in full, to shareholders on a pro-rata basis.

Financial Review

Total income for the 1H 2025 period was £121k (1H 2024: £503k).

Gross Rental Income declined by 6% to £109k from £116k as at 30 June 2024 due to the sale of Stafford in October 2024.

Cost of sales increased from £21k to £91k, driven by a service charge credit of £132k at Hastings within Property operating expenses in 1H24. The credit related to service charges at vacant units for required work which had been invoiced in 2022 and 2023. As the work has not yet been done, the property management company had to refund this to units that had paid, including Nos 4 Limited’s vacant units.

During the period under review Book Value decreased 5.9% to 19.3p/shr from 20.5p/shr as at 31 December 2024.
