CEO STATEMENT
Dear Shareholders and Investors
The third quarter of 2024 has been a period of continued progress and development for Crown Energy. We see progress across our business areas, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable growth and building a solid foundation for positive long-term impact in the regions where we operate.
AccYouRate Group:
Our investment in AccYouRate continues to prove its value and potential. During the third quarter, we made notable progress on key initiatives. Building on the interest shown earlier this year, AccYouRate has advanced initial phases of its five pilot contracts, receiving encouraging feedback that reaffirms demand for our sensorized garments and monitoring services.
AccYouRate continues its global growth through active discussions with strategic partners and potential distributors while advancing its product development. Recently, our devices were tested in specialized high-altitude trials to assess their effectiveness in challenging conditions, and we are enhancing our current solution to address evolving healthcare needs, aiming for a competitive edge in continuous monitoring.
Furher, three PNRR (EU based) projects were awarded to AccYouRate during the third quarter 2024 to support high-tech development across diverse fields: defense, regional healthcare, and occupational health sectors. These projects enable us to refine our YouCare device for defense, healthcare, and corporate use. The projects are in collaboration with key partners Rebel Alliance, InfoSat, and Linea Aperta.
Asset Management and Services in Angola:
Our asset management and services business in Angola continues to perform well, with occupancy rates consistently above 90% due to strong demand for residential and office spaces, particularly from energy sector companies. New property requests remain steady, and we are seeing clients expand operations with commitments to long-term leases, often extending to five years. To address this rising demand, we are assessing options such as renovating and subleasing additional properties in Luanda.
This growth underscores Angola’s positive economic outlook, and we are optimistic about deepening our involvement not only in asset management and services but also across our other business ventures. However, in our reporting the performance has been affected by currency translation effects which occurs when local income and currency denomination of our assets are translated into our reporting currency, which is SEK.
KAYA Climate Solutions
Our strategic partner, KAYA Climate Solutions, is advancing its environmental projects in Angola, having secured a project location in Malanje province and working with local authorities and partners to establish the framework for carbon credit qualification. Following our February 2024 agreement, Crown Energy has now fully advanced the 400,000,000 Kwanza loan (approximately EUR 400,000) to the Angolan subsidiary of KAYA, which while advanced at the local subsidiary level gives us the option to convert this loan into a 10% stake in the German parent company KAYA. To further support the initiative, we have provided an additional EUR 500,000 convertible loan, which allows us to increase our potential stake by another 10%. Together, these combined investments position Crown Energy to increase its stake in KAYA, in alignment with the communicated opportunity to become a larger shareholder. More information about our partnership can be found in our previous announcements and reports.
Clean Energy Initiatives
Aligned with our sustainable growth strategy, we are reviewing renewable energy opportunities in Angola, with a focus on green hydrogen utilising hydroelectric and solar power as energy sources. We are currently engaging partners to identify and map ongoing and upcoming opportunities, key players, and projects within the sector in Angola. This initiative seeks to lay the groundwork for a policy framework supporting the development of a green hydrogen strategy in Angola, highlighting key factors and opportunities. It will also provide a comprehensive overview of the current landscape, including significant stakeholders and emerging initiatives, taking into account that plans are still in the early development stage. Lastly, the strategy will consider how the oil and gas sector is expected to contribute to Angola’s energy transition, aligning with broader sustainable development goals.
