Let P ⋊ ℕ^x be a semidirect product of an additive semigroup P = {0, 2, 3, ⋯ } by a multiplicative positive natural numbers semigroup ℕ^x. We consider a covariant semigroup C^∗-algebra 𝓣(P ⋊ ℕ^x) of the semigroup P ⋊ ℕ^x. We obtain the condition that a state on 𝓣(P ⋊ ℕ^x) can be a ground state of the natural C^∗-dynamical system (𝓣(P ⋊ ℕ^x), ℝ, σ).
