(“London Nusantara” or the “Company”)

UNAUDITED INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S STATEMENT

I am pleased to announce our fourth interim financial results since the Company’s successful flotation on the NEX Exchange Growth Market on 30 June 2014. On 29 May 2017, the company completed its disposal of its initial investment in 404 hectares of land for an annualised gross return of 8.1%.

Currently we are targeting to acquire an equity interest in oil palm estates and mills that are revenue generating. We are expanding our investment search geographically to include parts of Sumatera and Kalimantan, Indonesia where a number of opportunities have arisen. The Company intends to fund these acquisitions by raising capital through a mixture of debt and equity coupled with a collaboration or joint-venture strategy with a suitable partner.

FINANCIALS

The interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2017 show a consolidated loss of £53,822 mainly due to the costs associated with maintaining the listing status, which is made up of administrative fees, retainers to advisors and operational expenditure.

On the 5th of July 2017, Mr Hussin Abdul Jalil our Non Executive Director submitted his resignation from the Board of Directors of LNP due to medical reasons. No new appointments have been made since his resignation. The CEO will take on the role as the plantation specialist given his exposure in the industry for more than 15 years.

The financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2017 has not been audited, but has been reviewed by the Company’s auditors, UHY Hacker Young LLP.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

  1. Significant accounting policies
  1. Basis of preparation

            This interim financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2017 is unaudited and does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of the Companies Act 2006 (Isle of Man).  The Board of Directors approved it on 29 September 2017.

            The figures for the year ended 31 December 2016 have been extracted from the statutory accounts which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union, (“IFRS”) and which have been reported on by the company’s auditor.  The auditor’s report on those financial statements was unqualified.

            The half-year report and financial information has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 “Interim financial reporting”.

            The half-year financial report does not include all notes of the type normally included in the annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the group as the full financial report.

            The financial information has been prepared on the historical cost basis. The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the company’s preparation of the half-year financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 and those expected to be used for the year ending 31 December 2017.  The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

  1. Going concern

            Having reviewed the company’s forecasts, the directors believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. Thus, they have adopted the going concern basis in preparing this interim financial information.

1.3       Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and its subsidiary undertaking. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.

All business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

1.4       Foreign currencies

            The results and financial position of the company are expressed in Pounds Sterling (£) which is the presentation currency for the company financial statements. The functional currency of the company is the Malaysian Ringgit (RM) which is the currency of the environment in which the company principally operates. At the end of the period, the exchange rate applying to these financial statements was £1 = RM5.5781

            The assets and liabilities of the company’s foreign operations are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the date of the accounts. Income and expense items are translated at exchange rates ruling at the date of the transactions. Exchange differences arising, if any, are classified as income or as expenses in the period in which they arise.

1.4       Investments

            Investments are stated at cost less any provision for impairment.

1.5       Trade and other receivables

            Trade and other receivables are carried at original invoice amount less provision made for impairment of these receivables. A provision for impairment of trade and other receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The amount of the provision is the difference between the assets’ carrying amount and the recoverable amount. Provisions for impairment of receivables are included in the income statement.

1.6       Trade and other payables

            Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the company prior to the financial year, which are unpaid. Current liabilities represent those amounts falling due within one year.

1.7       Taxation

Deferred tax is provided in full using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination, which at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates that are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or when the deferred tax liability is settled. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

2.         Critical accounting judgements and estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards requires the use of accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates. Management believes that there are no areas that involve a high degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these financial statements.

3.         Segmental information

The group’s assets and activities are based in Malaysia within the palm oil investment sector. This is the only business segment in which the group operates as identified by management
