“. . . .

Takeover target?
In the last few weeks, Ever-Gotesco Resources and Holdings Inc. has seen extraordinary trading in the stock market on speculation that this long-struggling company could be a merger and acquisition (M&A) target.

The names of three conglomerates floated in the market recently, one of which is a big group that had bought some shopping mall assets from this group in the past, while another is a group whose principal stockholders are in-laws of one scion of Ever.

We wish to inform you that Ever-Gotesco Resources and Holdings, Inc. (EVER) has no knowledge on what was reported on the News Article. While it is true that we are exploring all opportunities that could spring back EVER into active business operations, these are still preliminary. Please be assured that at the appropriate time, when the options are clearer, we shall be disclosing promptly to the PSE.

Thank you.
