Bisichi PLC 
 
Half year review - 30 June 2023 
 
For the six month period ended 30 June 2023, your company made a profit before 
interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of £1.42million (H1 2022: 
£22.25 million) and an operating profit before depreciation, fair value 
adjustments and exchange movements (Adjusted EBITDA) of £2.17million (H1 2022: 
£22.24million). 
 
The lower earnings for the Group, compared to the first six months of 2022,  are 
mainly attributable to lower prices for our coal sold by Sisonke Coal 
Processing, the Group's South African coal processing operation, as well as 
difficult mining conditions at our coal mining asset, Black Wattle Colliery. 
 
During 2022, the Group benefited from significantly higher prices of Free on 
Board (FOB) coal from Richards Bay Coal Terminal (API4 price). However, during 
the first half of 2023, the weekly API4 price averaged US$128 compared to US$277 
in the first half of 2022, and US$270 in the second half of the year. In 
addition to the weaker international coal price, constraints in transporting 
coal for export on the South African rail network, constraints which were 
largely beyond our control, significantly impacted the Group's export sales 
during the period. Due to the lack of available rail capacity, the Group 
exported 59,000 metric tonnes in the first half of 2023, compared to 177,000 
metric tonnes in the first half of 2022. This in turn had a further impact on 
earnings during the period, as coal allocated for export was eventually sold 
into the domestic market at prices that were significantly lower than the export 
price achievable by rail through Richards Bay. Transnet, the South African state 
rail operator, and the wider South African coal industry, are working hard to 
implement collectively measures to increase rail capacity. At this point, we 
remain optimistic that these measures will, once implemented, have a significant 
positive impact on both the export and domestic prices achievable for our coal. 
 
At Black Wattle, difficult mining conditions impacted profitability during the 
period. During the first six months of the year the Group achieved production of 
354,000 metric tonnes, compared to 301,000 metric tonnes in the first half of 
2022 and 523,000 in the second half of the year. Temporary geological issues 
reduced the production from our opencast mining area as well as increasing 
related mining and blasting costs. In order to mitigate these issues, the mine 
will open a lower cost second mining area in the third quarter of 2023; we 
expect mining production and costs at Black Wattle to steadily improve going 
into the fourth quarter of 2023. 
 
Lower coal production from Black Wattle had a knock-on effect on overall levels 
of coal processed at Sisonke Coal Processing during the period, during which the 
Group sold 473,000 metric tonnes compared to 614,000 metric tonnes in the first 
half of 2022 and 1.29million metric tonnes overall in 2022. The decrease in the 
Group's mining revenue during the period to £25.1million (H1 2022: £44.7million) 
can mainly be attributable to the lower prices achievable for our coal, and the 
lower overall quantity of coal sold. 
 
Looking forward into the second half of 2023, we will see the benefits, both in 
terms of mining cost and production, from the new mining area at Black Wattle. 
In addition, we have seen a stabilisation in coal prices in both the export and 
domestic market. We remain confident in the Group's ability to achieve 
significant value from our South African operations. 
 
In the UK, we have seen rental revenue from our retail property portfolio remain 
stable in the first half of 2023. Overall, the Group billed revenue from our 
directly owned property portfolio of £0.54million (H1 2022: £0.56million) during 
the first half of the year. The Group continues to hold its joint venture 
development investment in West Ealing, with London Associated Properties PLC and 
Metroprop Real Estate Ltd. We continue to explore options to realise the value 
from the planning consent for 56 flats we obtained in 2021. We are weighing up 
the risks and rewards of both a land sale and building out the site, and are 
optimistic that a decision to realise the best value of this site can be taken 
shortly. 
 
During the period the Group's total non-current and current listed equity 
investments held at fair value through profit and loss remained at similar 
levels as at the end of 2022 at £13.5million (H1 2022: £7.6million). The Group's 
dividend income from investments during the period of £0.28million (H1 2022: 
£0.15million) helped offset a loss in value from investments of £0.6million (H1 
2022: Gain £0.1million). The Group's listed investments continue to comprise 
primarily listed equities involved in extractive and energy related business 
activities, including entities involved in the extraction of commodities needed 
for the clean energy transition. 
 
Finally, your directors intend to pay an interim dividend of 3p (2022: 10p) per 
share. The dividend will be payable on Friday 2 February 2024 to shareholders 
registered at the close of business on 5 January 2024. 
 
On behalf of the Board and shareholders, I would like to thank all of our staff 
for their hard work during this period.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS: 
 
 
 
The results for the six months ended 30 June 2023 have been prepared in 
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).  The 
principal accounting policies applied are the same as those set out in the 
Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, and which will form 
the basis of the 2023 Annual report. 
 
 1. Segmental analysis 
 
For management purposes, the Group is organised into two operating Divisions, 
Mining and Property. These Divisions are the primary basis on which the Group 
reports its segment information. This is consistent with the way the Group is 
managed and with the format of the Group's internal financial reporting.

 3. Earnings/ (loss) per share 
 
Both the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations are based on a loss 
of £339,000 (2022: profit of £11,562,000). The basic earnings per share has been 
calculated on a weighted average of 10,676,839 (2022: 10,676,839) ordinary 
shares being in issue during the year. The diluted earnings per share has been 
calculated on the weighted average number of shares in issue of 10,676,839 
(2022: 10,676,839) plus the dilutive potential ordinary shares arising from 
share options of nil (2022: 479,878) totalling 10,676,839 (2022: 11,156,717). 
 
 4. Investment properties 
 
Investment properties are held a fair value at each reporting period. Management 
evaluate on an ongoing basis the impact of the current economic performance of 
the UK Retail market on the future performance of the group's existing UK 
property portfolio. The Directors have placed a valuation on the properties 
which is not materially different to the value as at 31 December 2022. Therefore 
no change in fair value of investment properties has been made during the 
period. Investment properties are therefore included at a Director's valuation 
which is considered to be the fair value as at 30 June 2023. Please refer to 
page 87 to 89 of the 2022 Annual report and Accounts for details on the 
valuation of investment and development properties as at 31 December 2022. 
 
 5. Related Parties 
 
The related parties and the nature of costs recharged are as disclosed in the 
Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. The 
Group paid management fees of £100,000 (30 June 2022: £100,000 December 2022: 
£200,000) to London & Associated Properties PLC, an associated company. 
 
 6. Financial information 
 
The above financial information does not constitute statutory accounts within 
the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.   The figures for the year 
ended 31st December 2022 are based upon the latest statutory accounts, which 
have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies; the report of the auditors on 
those accounts was unqualified and did not contain a statement under Section 
498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006. 
 
As required by the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the UK's Financial 
Conduct Authority, the interim financial statements have been prepared in 
accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and in 
accordance with both IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the 
United Kingdom and the disclosure requirements of the Listing Rules. 
 
The half year results have not been audited or subject to review by the 
company's auditors. 
 
The annual financial statements of Bisichi PLC are prepared in accordance with 
UK-adopted international accounting standards in conformity with the 
requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The same accounting policies are used 
for the six months ended 30 June 2023 as were used for the year ended 31 
December 2022. 
 
The assessment of new standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not 
effective, are not anticipated to have a material impact on the financial 
statements. 
 
The largest areas of estimation and uncertainty in the interim financial 
statements are in respect of: 
 
    - Life of mine and reserves; 
 
    - Depreciation; 
 
    - Provision for rehabilitation (relating to environmental rehabilitation of 
mining areas); 
 
    - Impairment; and 
 
    - The valuation of investment and development properties 
 
Property, plant and equipment representing the group's mining assets in South 
Africa are reviewed for impairment where there is evidence of a material 
impairment. The impairment test indicated significant headroom as at 31 December 
2022 and no impairment was considered appropriate. The directors have used 
similar key assumptions and estimates as outlined on page 76 of the 2022 Annual 
report and Accounts, and no impairment was considered appropriate as at 30 June 
2023. 
 
Other areas of estimation and uncertainly are referred to in the Group's annual 
financial statements. There have been no significant changes to the basis of 
accounting of key estimates and judgements as disclosed in the annual report as 
at 31 December 2022. 
 
The Group's contingent liabilities and bank guarantees are referred to in the 
Group's 2022 annual financial statements. Black Wattle Colliery (Pty) Ltd 
continues to be involved in a tax dispute in South Africa related to Vat. The 
dispute arose during the year ended 31 December 2020 and is related to events 
which occurred prior to the years ended 31 December 2020. The interpretation of 
laws and regulations in South Africa where the Group operates can be complex and 
can lead to challenges from or disputes with regulatory authorities. Such 
situations often take significant time to resolve. Where there is a dispute and 
where a reliable estimate of the potential liability cannot be made, or where 
the Group, based on legal advice, considers that it is improbable that there 
will be an outflow of economic resources, no provision is recognised. Further 
details of the contingent tax liability can be found on page 107 of the 2022 
Annual report and Accounts. 
 
The interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. 
Cashflow forecasts demonstrate that the group has adequate resources to continue 
in operational existence for the foreseeable future and is well placed to manage 
its business risks. 
 
 7. Dividend 
 
The final dividends in respect of 2022, totalling £1,281,000 was approved  by 
the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on the 6th June 2023 and 
were paid on the 28th July 2023. The final dividends in respect of 2022 are 
included as a liability in these interim financial statements. A proposed 
interim dividend for the year ended 31 December 2023 totalling £320,305 (2022: 
1,067,684) was approved by the Board of Directors on 22 August 2023 and has not 
been included as a liability in these Interim Financial Statements. 
 
 8. Principal risks and uncertainties 
 
The Group has an established risk management process which works within the 
corporate governance framework as set out in the 2022 Annual Report and 
Accounts. Risks and uncertainties identified by the Group are set out on page 19 
to 23 of the 2022 Annual Report & Accounts and are reviewed on an ongoing basis. 
There have been no significant changes in the first half of 2023 to the 
principle risks and uncertainties as set out in the 2022 Annual Report & 
Accounts. 
 
Risks faced by the business are assessed by the Board on an ongoing basis. 
Strategies for mitigating the risks have  been defined and specific measures for 
achieving these are already underway. These include the measures outlined in the 
Chairman's Statement, Mining Review and Financial Review & Performance sections 
of the 2022 Annual report and Accounts. 
 
The principal risks as stated in the 2022 Annual Report & Accounts reflect the 
challenging environment in which the business operates and are considered under 
the following broad headings: 
 
Mining: 
 
- Coal price and volume risk 
 
    - Mining risk 
 
    - Currency risk 
 
    - New reserves and mining permissions 
 
    - Power supply risk 
 
    - Flooding risk 
 
    - Environmental risk 
 
    - Health & safety risk 
 
    - Climate change risk 
 
    - Labour risk 
 
     - Cashflow 
 
Property: 
 
-    Property valuation risk 
 
 9. Board approval 
 
These interim results were approved by the Board of Bisichi PLC on 22 August 
2023.
