Chairman's Statement 

 

It gives me great pleasure to present this year's Chairman's Statement for Lift Global Ventures plc.

Miriad: A Strong Foundation for Growth

Our core investment, Miriad, continues to provide solid financial performance and cash generation. Miriad, which trades as Zak's Traders Café, has cemented its reputation as one of the UK's most recognisable voices in small-cap financial media.  Under the leadership of CEO Saqib "Zak" Mir, the business has remained profitable and cash positive, contributing steady income that supports the Company's investment strategy.

During the year, Miriad delivered a positive net cash inflow of £58,003 with turnover of £280,733 and an operating profit margin of 61%. Its combination of trusted market commentary, digital reach and client relationships provides a unique platform from which to build further value.

Zaks Trader Cafe has a loyal following on Social Media with over 27,300 followers on X (formerly Twitter). The Zak's Traders Café website serves as a hub for market insights and commentary.

Zak is recognized as a market leader in providing valuable content and distribution for corporate clients. Zak continues to provide insights on UK listed stocks and has expanded his coverage to also include some of the US stocks, focusing on "chart breakers" to help followers understand transatlantic trends.

Trans-Africa Energy Limited ("TAE")

The Company retains a legacy investment in Trans-Africa Energy Limited, held in the form of convertible loan notes. The notes have been extended to 31 January 2026 on improved terms, increasing their principal value at no additional cost to the Company.

Board Appointments

Following the period end, we strengthened the Board with the appointments of David Richards MBE and Mark Horrocks, who together bring decades of experience in technology entrepreneurship, AI investment and early-stage growth companies. This enhancement of the Board gives the Company the vision, capability and network required to identify and scale exceptional businesses within these sectors.

Strategy and Outlook

The Company now stands at the intersection of financial media and artificial intelligence, two complementary sectors that together offer both stability and extraordinary growth potential. Miriad provides reliable cash flow and brand strength, while exciting technology businesses offers exponential upside as adoption accelerates across every major industry.

Our goal is simple: to back exceptional founders, build scalable companies and create lasting value for shareholders.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my fellow directors, our management team and our shareholders for their continued trust and support.
