Amedeo Resources PLC

("Amedeo" or the "Company")

Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2016

Introduction

Progress at Jiangsu Yangzijiang Offshore Engineering Co. Ltd's ("YZJ Offshore") marine vessel yard on its first order, a Le Tourneau Super 116E Class design self-elevating mobile offshore jack up drilling rig ("Explorer 1"), continues and Explorer 1 is expected to be ready for delivery by the end of 2016.

With iron ore prices depressed, MGR Resources PTE Ltd ("MGR") cut back activities to a bare minimum. With surplus working capital, it repaid its GBP1,200,000 loan from Amedeo.

Total comprehensive loss for the period was US$632,000 (2015: US$749,000). Cash at the end of the period was US$3,998,000 (2015: US$3,281,000).

Despite these difficulties, Amedeo continues to pursue its long term strategy of building a vertically integrated business in the resource and energy and related infrastructure sectors.

YZJ Offshore

YZJ Offshore marine vessel yard continued with the commissioning of its first order, Explorer 1. With this being the yard's first rig, the commissioning process is continuing post the period in to the second half of 2016. The yard expects Explorer 1 to be ready for delivery by the end of 2016.

The market for marine vessels remains depressed and no new orders have been won for rigs or other marine vessels. This state of affairs is expected to improve in the medium term, and YZJ Offshore, having completed its first rig expects to be well placed to take advantage of the situation when it improves.

While commissioning Explorer 1, YZJ Offshore generated revenues by employing its berthing capacity. These revenues were sufficient to have covered YZJ Offshore's costs and generate a small profit of which US$13,000 is attributable to Amedeo

Amedeo has an indirect 19.0% stake in YZJ Offshore which it holds through its 47.5% stake in the joint venture company, YZJ Offshore Engineering Pte Ltd ("YZJ JV")

MGR

With iron ore prices depressed, MGR cut back activities to a bare minimum, and as such made a loss of US$15,000 (2015: US$64,000). Due to the low level of activity, in February 2016, it paid back to Amedeo a loan of GBP1,200,000. MGR continues to monitor the iron ore and commodity market in order to seek profitable brokering activities.

Amedeo has a 49.0% stake in MGR.

Financial Review

Revenue comprises various business services, invoiced in GBP, that Amedeo provides to MGR. During the six months, revenue decreased slightly to US$56,000 (2015: US$65,000). due to a fall in GBP against the US$.

Administrative costs were US$299,000 (2015: US$248,000). The increase was primarily due to the under accrual of audit fees in the prior period. Allowing for this, administrative costs were in line with the prior period.

Amedeo's share of losses in associates was US$2,000 (prior period: US$582,000). This was made up of a profit of US$13,000 (2015: loss of US$518,000) at YZJ JV and a loss of US$15,000 (2015: US$64,000) at MGR.

Foreign exchange losses amount to US$267,000 (2015: Gains US$4,000). These were predominately due to translating GBP denominated loans into US$ and translating GBP bank balances at the period end exchange rate. This is a non-cash item.

Finance income decreased to US$10,000 (2015: US$165,000) due to MGR repaying a loan of GBP1,200,000 to Amedeo.

Overall loss on ordinary activities before taxation was reduced to US$613,000 (2015: US$683,000). Basic and fully diluted loss per share for the period was US$1.83 (2015: US$2.09).

Foreign exchange translation differences due to Amedeo's indirect investment in YZJ Offshore were less than US$1,000 (2015: US$66,000). Overall total comprehensive loss for the period was US$613,000 (2015: US$749,000).

At the period end, the carrying value on the balance sheet of investments in associates fell to US$16,210,000 (2015: US$18,557,000), primarily as a result of the share of loss in the second half of 2015 from Amedeo's stake in YZJ JV.

Current assets fell to US$4,586,000 (2015: US$5,468,000). Cash as at 30 June 2016 was US$3,998,000 (2015: US$3,281,000) primarily as a result of the repayment of the GBP loan of GBP1,200,000 by MGR.

Trade and other payables decreased to US$188,000 (2015: US$247,000) mainly due to accrued expenses which were settled after the end of the prior period.

Overall, at the period end, net and total assets were US$20,607,000 (2015: US$23,778,000) and US$20,796,000 (2015: US$24,025,000), respectively.

Outlook

Despite the current difficulties in both the marine vessels market and the iron ore and commodity markets, Amedeo is well resourced and remains focused on long term strategy of building a vertically integrated business in the resource and energy and related infrastructure sectors.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM ACCOUNTS

1. Basis of preparation

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year ended 31 December 2015.

This interim consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2016 has been prepared in accordance with AIM rule 18, 'Half yearly reports and accounts'. This interim consolidated financial information is not the group's statutory financial statements within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 (and information as required by section 435 of the Companies Act 2006) and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors have reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified, did not include references to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis of matter without qualifying their report and did not contain statements under section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
