Chairman's Statement
I am pleased to report the interim results of the Group for the six months ended 30 June, 2015. During the period, the Company's main focus has been, and will continue to be, the Rukwa Coal to Power Project in south western Tanzania.
The Rukwa Project, Edenville's key asset, is well placed to play a significant part in helping Tanzania face the dual challenges of under-development of its power sector and strong demand growth. The Rukwa Project is strategically located in an area with a defined power deficit, with plans for a new 400KV transmission line to be constructed within 12km of the deposit. This power line is part of the East African Power Pool Development Plan, which will see a total of 2,302km of new power lines constructed between Kenya, Tanzania and Zambia. As per the resource estimate prepared by Sound Mining Solutions Limited of South Africa announced in March 2013, the Rukwa Project has a Measured and Indicated Resource of 171 million tonnes of raw coal, sufficient to support the proposed coal-fired power plant through life of Project and beyond, with Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) approval for mining operations granted in 2014.
January 2015 brought a positive start to the year, with Edenville receiving the last tranche of results from a near surface test-pit programme which sampled coal seams lying close to surface, which would be the material mined during the first few years of operation. The results from across the Rukwa Coal Deposit demonstrated a significant quantity of near surface coal of much higher quality than that quoted in our global, measured and indicated resource estimate stated above. Tonnage calculations, independently verified by Sound Mining Consultants of Johannesburg, indicate that more that 40 million tonnes of Edenville's Measured and Indicated coal resource lies close to surface with a very low strip ratio (approximately 1:1), and lies within the zone covered by the EIA; this tonnage alone is sufficient to fuel a 120MW power station for the life of the project.
The new results from the test pit program fed into Lahmeyer India's Power Plant Feasibility Study, a complex and detailed report which examined the viability of utilising Edenville's Rukwa Coal Deposit as the primary fuel source for power generation. This extremely encouraging Feasibility Study, commissioned in November 2014 and delivered on time in March 2015, confirmed the commercial viability of a coal-fired power station located at the Rukwa Coal Project. The Feasibility Study recommends a power plant be developed in 2 phases; Phase 1 comprising two units of 60MW each (total 120MW), and Phase 2 comprising two additional units of up to 120MW (total 240MW), with the opportunity for rapid scale up to Phase 2 in parallel with an increasing power demand profile in Tanzania.
The Feasibility Study and Financial Model announced in March 2015 consider the coal mine and power plant as an integrated commercial entity, with profits generated by the sale of electricity from a coal-fired power station. The financial metrics are very encouraging: the NPV, with a discount factor of 10%, varies between US$220 million to US$322 million depending on the base case and offtake scenarios. The combined capital expenditure is estimated at US$175 million for the power plant and mine, equating to approximately US$1.45 million per MW (median estimate), which is considered competitive in terms of industry costs to develop the project.
Ever conscious of the changing needs of the Company, we announced a reorganisation of the Board in June 2015, to better address the requirements of the business as we seek a development partner. We were delighted to retain the experience and knowledge of key Directors whilst maintaining a carefully managed cost base.
Mark Pryor, then a Non-Executive Director, stepped into an Executive Director position as Edenville's Chief Operating Officer, supporting Rufus Short in his position as CEO. Mark has extensive knowledge of Edenville's Rukwa Coal assets, being part of the Board since the AIM admission in 2010. His involvement with Edenville increased significantly during the first half of 2015, making the Executive position better suited to his increased presence and senior status in the UK and Tanzania.
To maintain the balance of the Board, I (Sally Schofield) became Non-Executive Chairman of the Company with a commensurate reduction in fees. As an additional cost reduction measure, Finance Director Rakesh Patel stepped down from the Board, but continues to provide financial and accountancy services to the Company on a consultancy basis. Arun Srivastava, Non-Executive Director, who has rich and varied experience in the power industry, remains a valued member of the Board of Directors. This restructure has allowed a higher level of executive presence in Tanzania, which helps manage the complex and detailed processes we must navigate to bring the project to fruition.
Another key milestone, announced on 1 July 2015, was the submission of the application package for the Mining Licence to the Tanzanian Ministry of Mining, Energy and Minerals (MEM) for the Rukwa Project. The application required data from the Power Plant Feasiblity Study, the EIA approval, along with a detailed Mine Plan, CSR Policy, Procurement Plan and Employment Plan. Edenville's executive team worked closely with its Tanzanian consultants, Tansheq to compile the documentation package. A formal response is expected before the end of the year, although the timing of any decision by the MEM is outside our control.
Since the period end, the Company has continued to make further good progress. July saw the commencement of the formal review of the Rukwa Power Plant Feasibility Study by the MEM and Tanesco (the state body for power generation, transmission and distribution), a key step in advancing the Rukwa Coal to Power Project to the development stage. This review will assess the proposed power generation project to satisfy commercial and regulatory requirements, and allow Edenville to plan the integration of Edenville's power plant into Tanzania's transmission and distribution infrastructure programme and advance negotiations relating to Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) tariffs.

As announced on 8 September, cost analyses have been received from several EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) groups, with details of key modules including BTG (boiler, turbine, generator) and BOP (balance of plant) components. Further refinement of costs is expected as work continues. Additional visits to Tanzania by potential partners are expected and continuing technical and commercial analysis by the groups concerned is being undertaken in conjunction with the Edenville team. Additionally, there are ongoing discussions with banks for the provision of debt finance to the Rukwa Project. Further exploration work also continues across the project area.
The Board is pleased to see Edenville's Rukwa Coal to Power Project making significant progress in three key areas over the period- the MEM/Tanesco review of the Power Plant Feasibility Study, the submission of the Mining Licence application and discussions with potential EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) and financial partners. We are confident in our strong relationship with the MEM, which fully supports the integration of coal fired power generation into Tanzania's energy plan and we are pleased to receive valuable input and support from the Tanzanian authorities.
Our current focus is in particular on the selection of EPC and financial partners. We have made significant progress in this area over the past 6 months and aim to complete the process during the rest of this year, but external factors beyond our control may influence timing. We are continuing to pursue an integrated approach to project development, with the aim of implementation alongside the Tanzanian authorities, to provide a successful and timely outcome for all stakeholders.
Financial Results
The Company made a loss after taxation for the six month period ended 30 June 2015 of GBP421,819. The net assets at 30 June 2015 amounted to GBP7,966,776.
The total comprehensive loss for the period was GBP527,529, which included a loss of GBP105,760 arising from the translation of the Tanzanian subsidiary company accounts from US Dollars to Sterling.
At 30 June 2015, the Company had cash reserves of GBP337,032. In July 2015, the Company raised GBP250,000 from a placing of 500,000,000 shares. Post period end, the Company saw the exercise of 158,750,000 warrants at 0.054p per warrant raising a further GBP85,725.
We look forward to updating shareholders as we reach agreement on a partnership to best develop the Rukwa Coal to Power Project and as we progress other significant parts of the project.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM REPORT
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
1. Financial information and basis of preparation
The interim financial statements of Edenville Energy Plc are unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2015 which have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. They include unaudited comparatives for the six months ended 30 June 2014 together with audited comparatives for the year ended 31 December 2014.
The interim financial statements do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2014 have been reported on by the company's auditors and have been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors was (i) unqualified, (ii) contained an emphasis of matter paragraph with regards Going Concern and (iii) did not contain any statement under section 498 of the Companies Act 2006. The Company raised additional funds after December 2014 and continues to be a going concern.
The interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2015 have been prepared on the basis of accounting policies expected to be adopted for the year ended 31 December 2015. These are anticipated to be consistent with those set out in the Group's latest financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014. These accounting policies are drawn up in accordance with adopted International Accounting Standards("IAS") and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and adopted by the EU.
2. Loss per share
The calculation of the basic and diluted loss per share is based on the following data:

The loss attributable to equity shareholders and weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per ordinary share are identical to those used for basic earnings per ordinary share. This is because the exercise of share options and warrants would have the effect of reducing the loss per ordinary share and is therefore anti-dilutive.
