This exceptional growth was driven by robust energy operations, higher realisations in our metal businesses, and disciplined cost control. One of the most notable achievements this quarter was the sharp improvement in Maamba Energy Limited's receivable position, where arrears of $75 million were successfully collected, the management said in the Q1 earnings conference call. The company's strategic projects, from renewable energy in Zambia to commercial agriculture in Africa, are progressing as planned, positioning the company for sustainable growth. The planned conversion of captive power assets to IPPs will further enhance operational efficiency, the management said.
