Interim Results for the period ended 30 September 2013
Chairman's Statement
I am pleased to present Xplorer Plc's interim figures following a four month period of strong progress since we listed last July.
On 30(th) September I explained in our AGM statement that we, in collaboration with Sprint Capital, had driven a process leading to a refinement of our shortlist of investment candidates which would be acquired by Xplorer under Sprint's guidance and financial support.
We have remained in daily communication with Sprint's investment team and together with them, I am delighted to report that we have reached the final stages of due diligence and negotiation with our preferred two candidates.
Both represent substantial opportunities for our shareholders in terms of current scale and future prospects and we look forward to announcing further news shortly.
John Davies
Non-Executive Chairman

Notes to the interim financial information
1. Accounting Policies a) Basis of Preparation
These interim financial statements are for the six months ended 30 September 2013 and have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Statements". The accounting policies applied are consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted for use by the European Union. The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the interim financial statements are consistent with those used in the Company's Annual Report for 2013 and are expected to be applied for the year ended 31 March 2014.
b) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
Management have considered the significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions used within the non-statutory financial statements and do not consider there to be any which would materially affect the financial statements.
c) Financial Instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised in the Company's statement of financial position when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Company currently does not use derivative financial instruments to manage or hedge financial exposures or liabilities.
d) Segmental Reporting
For the purpose of IFRS8 the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") takes the form of the Directors. The Directors are of the opinion that the business comprises of a single economic activity, being the acquisition of businesses or assets in the natural resources sector and currently this activity is undertaken solely in the United Kingdom. All of the income and non-current assets are derived from the United Kingdom. No single customer accounts for more than 10% of income. At meetings of the Directors, income, expenditure, cash flows, assets and liabilities are reviewed on a whole Company basis. Based on the above considerations there is considered to be one reportable segment only namely the acquisition of businesses or asset in the Natural Resources Sector.
Therefore the financial information of the single segment are the same as that set out in the company statement of comprehensive income, company statement of financial position, the company statement of changes to equity and the company statement of cashflows.
