Included in finance costs for the period is an interest charge of $1.422 million in respect of the $8 million corporate loan. The charge for the current period comprises the remaining charge due on the loan prior to modifications effective on 24 February 2014, which were the extension of the loan repayment date and the re-pricing of the warrants from EUR0.06 per warrant to GBP0.01 per warrant granted to the lender. In compliance with IFRS 2, the modifications of the loan terms and the warrant pricing have given rise to an additional finance charge, including a further warrant charge of $496,000, which will be charged on a effective interest rate basis from the date of modification to the repayment date of 31 July 2015.

   5.      Tax 

The Group has not provided any tax charge for the six month periods ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2013 or for the year ended 31 December 2013. The Group's operating divisions have accumulated losses which are expected to exceed profits earned by operating entities for the foreseeable future.

   6.      Discontinued operation 

During the period, the Company agreed to dispose of its wholly owned subsidiary Aminex USA Inc., and shareholder approval was received on 22 August 2014. The total consideration for the disposal comprises US$150,000 cash and US$350,000 worth of shares in Northcote Energy Ltd, ('Northcote') an AIM listed oil and gas company, and a production payment of US$10 per barrel until a total of US$4,500,000 has been recovered with first payments to commence from 1 January 2015. The Directors have reviewed the timing of anticipated production payments and are satisfied that the net present value of US$2.9 million, using a discount factor of 10%, represents the fair value of future expected production payments.

The assets and liabilities of Aminex USA, Inc. have been classified as held for sale as disposal was deemed to be highly probable at the balance sheet date. Additionally, the results from the US operation have been presented as a discontinued operation as the entity to be disposed of represents a separate geographical area of operation. The comparative condensed consolidated income statements have been restated to show the discontinued operation separately from continuing operations.
