Directors increased existing loan facilities by a further €100,000 (A$166,000), unsecured, maturing 31 December 2021 at 10% interest, for working capital while Selva final approval is awaited. Adds to the insider support keeping the company funded.
Reviewed half-year accounts to 30 June 2020 confirm the €427,315 loss (€838,787 a year earlier). Subsequent A$500,000 (about €310,000) of director and shareholder funding is noted. Final Selva approval is still expected in late 2020, with the next fundraising predicated on it.

PVE replied to an ASX query on its low cash, €31,000 at 30 June 2020. It cites cost cuts, A$500,000 of director and shareholder loans, and Selva approval it expects by October 2020, so it can fund development by December 2020. Continued listing remains in question.
Directors and major shareholders extended A$500,000 of loans since 30 June 2020, maturing 31 December 2021 at 10% interest, for working capital. Management plans a larger fund raising in late 2020 once Selva is approved, which it now expects in the December quarter.
