FastForward Innovations Limited
("FastForward" or the "Company")
Market Update
The Board of FastForward is pleased to provide the following strategic update to its
shareholders.
1. The Company believes that there are exceptional
opportunities available to it in the gaming technology sector. These opportunities are available to the Company largely
because of the network of the Company's Board of Directors, advisers and large shareholders. The Company believes that the gaming
technology sector has very positive macro-economic characteristics and represents a very significant growth
opportunity;
2. The Company is currently carrying out due
diligence on a number of new investments in the gaming technology sector and expects to announce new investments in the
relatively short term;
3. The Company is exploring adding additional
gaming expertise and experience to its Board of Directors;
4. The Company believes that almost all of its
current investments are significantly ahead of plan and have a realisable value in the long term which is greater than and
in some cases significantly greater than their current carrying value
5. Specifically, the Company believes its
investments in Biotechnology, education technology, and its investment in Yooya could yield significant returns in the near
term. Exit opportunities on favourable terms are under review for these investments. With respect to Education
Technology the Board is exploring strategic alternatives which could allow FastForward shareholders to enjoy benefits from
ownership in a stand-alone Education Technology vehicle, potentially by way of distribution in specie.
More information on all of these developments will be made as and when appropriate.
