Proactive - Interviews for investors

Nostra Terra Oil and Gas CEO on Fouke field growth plans, 5,000 barrels a day target

Nostra Terra Oil and Gas Company PLC CEO Paul Welch talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategy to scale up production and drive growth from its existing base of operations in East Texas and West Texas. Welch explained that Nostra Terra is currently focused on the Pine Mills field, a long-life, shallow onshore field with low operating costs and consistent profitability. “It's been an exciting field for the last 75 years and we expect it to be an exciting field for the program for the next 20 to 30 as well,” he said. Since taking over as CEO around nine months ago, Welch has led the company to profitability by cutting costs and increasing production. He highlighted two successful well workover programs that have effectively doubled production. A key highlight is the Fouke area, where new drilling, including the upcoming Fouke-3 well, could deliver significant volumes. Welch pointed out that these wells can initially produce around 120 barrels per day—compared to the average of 6 to 10 barrels from the Pine Mills wells. If enhanced recovery schemes are implemented, the output could potentially double. Welch reaffirmed the company’s ambitious growth target: “This is a company that's going to be making 5,000 barrels a day in the next 3 to 5 years.” The focus remains on building from a solid, profitable base, with production costs in the Fouke area as low as $3 to $4 per barrel, ensuring resilience across various oil price environments.

Time Finance CEO on Q3 update: record lending & growth to resilient small businesses

Time Finance PLC (AIM:TIME) CEO Ed Rimmer takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company’s performance in the third quarter, highlighting a record gross lending book and improved arrears management. Rimmer explained that Time Finance provides funding solutions to small businesses, including invoice finance, asset finance, and secured loans, typically supporting businesses with turnover up to £10 million. He said, “We help businesses grow, but we also help businesses to survive as well.” The company’s lending book reached a record £210 million at the end of February, with arrears falling to 5% from 6% a year earlier. Rimmer noted this progress came despite challenging market conditions and was achieved without compromising credit quality. Margins have also increased, with profit margins now at 40%. This was attributed to tight cost control and improved efficiency, including leveraging technology and streamlining internal processes. Time Finance has not increased its headcount significantly post-COVID, which has helped support margin growth. Rimmer also addressed the broader economic environment, pointing to interest rate pressures, inflation, and increased insolvencies, but emphasised that small businesses remain resilient. The company sees opportunity as traditional banks become more risk-averse, creating space for independent lenders. Visit Proactive’s YouTube channel for more interviews like this.

Gaming Realms CEO on 2024 successes, Slingo growth and 2025 outlook

Gaming Realms PLC CEO Mark Segal takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company's strong 2024 financial performance and its ongoing international expansion. The company reported a year of strong growth, with revenue rising in both core content licensing and non-core social segments. Segal highlighted a “revenue increase, increase in our core content licensing business,” alongside gains in adjusted EBITDA and net profit, underlining operational leverage within the business. The company's flagship Slingo titles drove momentum, with 12 new releases in 2024 and North America contributing 54% of licensing revenue. “The cohorts of games we built in 2024 has probably been our highest-grossing sets of games in the first year,” said Segal. Gaming Realms is now live in five regulated U.S. states and recently launched in Brazil, aiming to deepen its presence in both. Segal also discussed the addition of third-party studio content, including Real Play, For The Player, and upcoming partner S Gaming, helping diversify offerings and penetrate high-barrier markets like the U.S. Cash generation remains strong, with a £13.5 million balance and a share buyback program underway. Looking ahead, Segal said the company expects continued organic growth, expansion into South Africa, and new launches with British Columbia’s lottery.

Proactive - Interviews for investors

Element 25 delivers positive Tokyo Bay Scoping Study

Element 25 managing director Justin Brown talked with Proactive about the recent completion of the Tokyo Bay HPMSM Facility Scoping Study in partnership with Nissin Chemical Corporation. The company said the results of the scoping study were positive enough to justify advancing the project to the pre-feasibility stage. Brown explained that the Tokyo Bay site offers unique advantages, including a co-located sulfuric acid plant, deepwater port access, and supporting infrastructure critical for high-purity manganese sulfate production. “We took our learnings from the detailed work we’ve done in Louisiana… and converted them to a Japanese setting,” Brown said. He also noted that Japan's regulatory and geopolitical environment makes it an ideal location for refining and supplying the local battery market. Looking ahead, Brown confirmed that Element 25 and Nissin Chemical will conduct deeper engineering and cost analysis under their existing MOU, with a final investment decision targeted for June 2026. The next milestone will be the pre-feasibility study, expected later this year. Brown also discussed how the Tokyo Bay project fits into the company’s broader “design one, build many” strategy, which aims to establish a global network of refineries fed by ethically sourced manganese from Element 25’s Butcherbird mine. In addition to activity in Japan, Brown highlighted ongoing work in Europe and updates on the Butcherbird expansion and Louisiana project, with construction planned to commence later this year.
