Statement on share price movement
Trading update
The directors of PCGE, the AIM quoted Asia-Pacific online media
and entertainment company, have noted the recent rise in the
Company's share price and concurrent online speculation.
On 1 April 2017, Richard Poulden, Chairman of the Company,
presented at the UK Investor Show 2017. During his presentation, Mr
Poulden stated the following:
-- The Company will have around GBP800,000 net cash at the bank.
This is comprised mostly from the recent placings of GBP750,000 and
GBP350,000 as previously announced and the proceeds of the disposal
of the shares pursuant to the disposal of the Company's former
subsidiary, Centre Point Development Corp ("CPDC"), as announced on
21 February 2017.
-- The Company is in the process of looking to joint venture its
Client Provider Authorization by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission in
Quebec, Canada. As announced at the time of the Company's
acquisition of CPDC, the Client Provider Authorization permits the
Company to provide interactive gaming services both from premises
in the Mohawk territory of Kahnawake and elsewhere relating to
interactive games of chance or mixed chance and skill. A further
update on discussions with potential joint venture partners will be
announced by the Company when they are available.
-- In answers to questions from shareholders Mr Poulden
confirmed the Company's view of two persistent rumours raised
online and at the UK Investor Show:
o firstly, that although Mr Poulden was still in contact with
Shenzhen Tianrong Sports Culture Management Co. Ltd. ("Tianrong")
personally, neither he nor Mr Sun, the Company's COO in Asia,
believed that Tianrong had the financing to complete a significant
football deal.
o secondly, that there had not been a recent games deal agreed
by the Company.
