“Due to Guy’s corporate commitments the Board were always aware that his tenure was subject to certain milestones. Of most significance was seeing the Company achieve financial depth and a defined corporate strategy that provided a platform for future growth.

Guy has been an incredibly dedicated and committed Director which is further reflected in the capital support he has provided the Company since July 2020 and his input and commitment to see the Company operate to high standards.

I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of the Board of Evrima to thank Guy for his years of service and support and wish him well in his future endeavours.”

Outgoing Director, Guy Miller commented,

“With PNR now listed with an approximate market capitalisation of CAD$235m, Evrima has liquid common shares with a market value of ~$1,600,000 (CAD).

Whilst I am concluding my journey as a Director, I remain a supportive shareholder of a Company that has the opportunity to deliver tangible value for shareholders in the future.”
