FUNDING UPDATE
Further to the announcements of 12 and 13 October 2016, DiamondCorp announces that the
third party with whom the Company has been in advanced discussions for the provision of a
convertible debt facility has withdrawn from such discussions due to the adverse movement in
the Company’s share price.
However, the Company is in accelerated discussions with certain of the Company’s
shareholders and other third parties with a view to securing the necessary additional funding
of c.£500,000 to satisfy immediate financial commitments. In the absence of a successful
resolution to these discussions, it is likely that the Group will be unable to continue trading as
a going concern in the very near term.
No assurances can be given at this stage that the provision of the required immediate term
funding will be entered into either in time or at all. Additionally, in the event that the Company
secures the required immediate term funding, there can be no certainty that the Company will
subsequently secure the necessary funding solutions to meet its longer term financial
requirements as previously announced.
The Company will update shareholders accordingly.
