Financial Highlights
2016 Guidance
Operational Highlights
Clive Line, CFO of Serabi, commented,
“The third quarter has produced another satisfying result, both operationally and financially. Gold production of 10,233 ounces was another successive record quarter being a three per cent improvement on the preceding quarter. Record levels of mined and milled tonnages were also achieved in the quarter. Gross profit from operations has improved quarter on quarter and the pre-tax profit of US$743,000 is a significant improvement over the preceding quarter. At the same time, we continue to strengthen the balance sheet and pay down debt reflected in the improvement in the current asset position of the Company.
“During the third quarter we have changed customer for our copper/gold concentrate production. This change has brought with it improved payment terms but under IFRS, it has also accelerated the date on which the sale of a consignment copper/gold concentrate occurs. As a result, the third quarter results have benefitted from the recognition of a one-off additional sale, together with the associated production costs, of 160 tonnes of concentrate being recognised in the quarter. This also reflected in the balance sheet as the production costs of this 160 tonne shipment are no longer carried as inventory (valued at the cost of production) as they would have been in preceding periods, but as a receivable for the sales value of the shipment.
“The balance sheet has also been strengthened by the retirement in the quarter of approximately US$3.33 million of debt. We continue to repay the US$8 million debt facility from Sprott Resource Lending Partnership which as at the end of October 2016 has been reduced to approximately US$1.0 million. In addition, the financial position has been improved through the conversion, by Fratelli Investment Limited, of its US$2 million convertible loan which occurred during August 2016.
“The cash position is slightly lower than at the end of June 2016, but this reflects the settlement for this 160 tonnes shipment of concentrate that left Brazil at the end of September for which payment only occurred in the first few days of the following month. The change in customer has eliminated the need for the US$7.5 million short term trade finance arrangements that the Company has had in place for some three years which financed the concentrate sales for approximately four months prior to any initial settlement being received from the smelter. This change is therefore expected to bring significant savings in finance costs in the future.
“Whilst our costs, in local currency terms, continue to be relatively steady, the Brazilian economy and therefore the Brazilian Real have continued to benefit from high inward investment flows, supplemented by tax inflows from previously undeclared foreign income and investment holdings that have been stimulated by a short-term amnesty. These inward flows have continued to support the currency, though with the amnesty coming to an end, there has been some recent weakening. We continue to evaluate all opportunities to improve our cost base and improve gold recovery to maintain and improve margins.”

Comparative information has been provided for the unaudited three and nine month periods ended 30 September 2015 and, where applicable, the audited twelve month period from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2015.
The accounts for the periods have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and the accounting policies are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 and those envisaged for the financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2016.
The Group has not adopted any standards or interpretation in advance of the required implementation dates. It is not anticipated that the adoption in the future of the new or revised standards or interpretations that have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board will have a material impact on the Group’s earnings or shareholders’ funds.
These financial statements do not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.
Going concern and availability of project financeHaving commenced initial development activities for the Sao Chico Mine at the end of 2014, this mine was in development throughout 2015. On 1 February 2016, the Group announced that, with effect from 1 January 2016, the Sao Chico Mine had achieved Commercial Production. The Palito Mine has been in Commercial Production since 1 July 2014.
The Directors anticipate the Group now has access to sufficient funding for its immediate projected needs. The Group expects to have sufficient cash flow from its forecast production to finance its on-going operational requirements to repay its secured loan facilities and to, at least in part, fund exploration and development activity on its other gold properties. The secured loan facility is repayable by 31 December 2016 and at 30 September 2016, the amount outstanding under this facility was US$1.33 million.
However, the forecasted cash flow projections for the remainder of 2016 include a continuing significant increase in production from the Sao Chico Mine compared with the preceding calendar year. Whilst the Group has declared Commercial Production at the Sao Chico Mine, there are risks associated with the commencement of any new mining operation whereby unforeseen technical and logistical events result in additional costs needing to be incurred, giving rise to the possibility that additional working capital may be required. Additionally, the Group is exposed to changes in gold price and currency exchange rates. Should additional working capital be required the Directors consider that further sources of finance could be secured within the required timescale.
On this basis, the Directors have therefore concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. However, there is no certainty that such additional funds either for working capital or for future development will be forthcoming and these conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt over the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Group was unable to continue as a going concern.
