Case study with ValiRx (AIM:VAL)

• Landore Resources is an AIM-quoted mineral exploration company developing its flagship BAM Gold Project in Ontario, Canada, alongside a portfolio of nickel and base metal assets. Exploration companies face a particular IR challenge: the investment case evolves slowly, with news flow that is often technical and episodic. InvestorHub has allowed Landore to maintain a consistent, accessible presence for its shareholder base between the peaks of activity. Investor Hub serves as a central location to our shareholders and provides our shareholders with an easy and quick communication platform to engage directly with the company.

"It's one of the central challenges of IR at our stage, and it's something InvestorHub has genuinely helped with. The media updates function means we don't have to wait for an RNS to communicate. We can publish a summary of ongoing geological work, share a site photograph, post a link to an analyst note, content that keeps the community informed and engaged without crossing into regulatory territory.

The Hub has also helped us consolidate everything investors need in one place. Presentations, annual reports, site and technical reports, rather than investors having to go digging through a corporate website, it's all accessible in a well-structured hub."

You have a significant retail shareholder base. Has InvestorHub helped you understand who those investors actually are?

"A lot of our shares are held in nominee accounts, so historically we had very little visibility into who was actually sitting behind them. We knew we had a loyal retail following, but we couldn't easily distinguish between someone who's been with us for years and is highly engaged versus someone who bought shares once and hasn't thought about us since.

InvestorHub has changed that. We can now get behind most of the Nominee Accounts to see the beneficial owner, who has been buying and selling and who our larger shareholders are. As investors sign up to the Hub, we start to build a clearer picture of who they are and how engaged they are, who's opening announcements, who's asking questions, who keeps coming back. It's not a complete answer to the nominee problem, but it gives us a genuinely useful proxy for engagement that we simply didn't have before.

That has practical implications for how we communicate. We can see which parts of our story resonate most and, increasingly, have a sense of whether our most engaged shareholders are being reached when something significant happens."
