RNS Number : 9347Z Geo Exploration Limited 18 September 2025

GEO Exploration Limited
("GEO " or the "Company")
Repayment of Interest-Free Loan to CEO and Strengthened Balance Sheet
Geo Exploration Limited (AIM: GEO) is pleased to announce that it has fully
repaid in cash the interest-free loan of US$270,000 previously provided by its
Chief Executive Officer, Mr Omar Ahmad.
With expiry date 30 September 2025 and despite Mr Ahmad having indicated his
willingness to extend the loan if the Board so wished, the Board, as part of
its broader strategy, decided to repay the loan ahead of its due date. This
repayment strengthens the Company's balance sheet and leaves GEO debt free as
it enters an important phase with drilling underway at its flagship Juno
Project.
The loan was originally provided in July 2024, during a critical period for
the Company, to provide stability and enable GEO to progress its operational
plans. The Board expresses its gratitude to Mr Ahmad for his support at that
time and for his continued leadership as the Company undertakes its maiden
drill programme at Juno.
Hamza Choudhry, Chief Financial Officer of Geo Exploration Limited, commented:
"The Company sincerely appreciates the support provided by Mr Ahmad during a
pivotal time in July 2024, which enabled GEO to move forward with stability.
Since his appointment, the Company has experienced a significant uplift in
sentiment and valuation, driven by his shareholder-focused approach and
commitment to putting the Company first. We are equally appreciative of his
ongoing leadership as he guides GEO through this important phase, with maiden
drilling at the Juno Project progressing to plan."
