Unaudited Interim Results -- six months to 30 June 2023
AltynGold Plc ("AltynGold" or the "Company"), the gold mining and development company, announces its unaudited results for the six months to 30 June 2023.
The Company has increased the level of ore extraction with the expanded fleet of mining equipment. However the redevelopment and expansion of the processing plant and overhaul and maintenance of the existing plant has had a knock on effect on output volumes in the current period, as more fully explained in the Chief Executives Report.
Highlights:
Mine development
-- Transport declines No.1 and No. 2 have both been developed to the horizons +67 and 62masl respectively. -- Development of the mine tunneling amounted to 2,964 linear metres, (H12022: 2,992 linear metres). -- Exploration drilling amounted to 611 linear metres, (2022: 11,040). -- Ore was mined in the period principally from ore bodies 6-8 and 5.5 at horizons between 150masl to 100masl. -- The extension for the licence at Teren-Sai has been resubmitted with amendments in August 2023 to continue exploration works for a further two years -- expected to be received in Q4 2023.
Production
-- The ore mined was 331,183t (H1 2022: 277,398t) an increase of 19%. -- Average processed gold grade in the period was 1.95g/t (H1 2022: 2.06g/t). -- Gold recovery averaged 82.77% during the 6 month period (H1 2022: 83.44%). -- H1 2023 gold production from Sekisovskoye was 14,440oz, compared with H1 2022 of 16,965oz -- H1 2023 gold sold was 14,284oz, compared with H1 2022 of 17,542oz
Financial
-- The turnover decreased to US$28m (H1 2022: US$32m). -- The gold price achieved averaged US$1,939oz during the period (H1 2022: US$1,830oz). -- The Company made a gross profit of US$9.5m (H1 2022: gross profit of US$17m), with a net profit before taxation of US$4.6m (H1 2022: loss of US$11.6m). -- The total cash cost of production was US$1,344oz (H1 2022: US$884oz). -- Adjusted EBITDA achieved was US$8.5m (H1: 2022: US$17m).

H1 2023 Review
Key Statistics H1 2023 H1 2022 Ore mined tons 331,183 277,398 Milling tons 280,155 306,599 Gold grade g/t 1.95 2.06 Silver grade g/t 1.72 1.69 Gold recovery % 82.77% 83.44% Silver recovery % 73.85% 72.34% Gold produced ounces 14,440 16,965 Silver produced ounces 8,402 11,306
The production results were below those budgeted, with a shortfall of 12% at 280kt of milled ore (H1 2022 306.5kt) from the planned level of 315kt of ore milled.
Plans were put in place for the expansion of the production facility which is currently in process to be completed by the end of the year. The initial plans envisaged that there would be minimal disruption to the current level of production. However on a practical level this turned out not to be the case resulting in stoppages and interruptions to normal workflows in the processing plant. Due to the effect on workflows it was decided that it would be the appropriate time to also overhaul one of the existing mills, to coincide with the expansion works. This resulted in reduced volumes of processed ore, in order to manage the ongoing situation, the planned level of processing was decreased going forward for 2023 to 50/55kt a month.
As the new mining equipment was delivering increased levels of mined ore, increasing in the period to 331kt from 277kt last year. It was decided to limit the volume to be extracted to 700kt for the year as significant stockpiles of ore were building up. The increased capacity of the processing plant of 1mt a year will be in place from Q1 2024, with work to be substantially completed by the end of 2023.
The Company has reported a gross profit of US$9.5m for H1 2023, against US$17m for H1 2022, with turnover of US$28m (H1 2022 US$32m). The reduction in turnover is as a result of the issues noted above.
The principal reason for the drop in margin resulted from the following two principal factors:
-- Increased costs of mining ore due to inflationary price increases rising in the period from the prior year. The Company has currently absorbed this but is reviewing options to manage the costs as it is a significant component going forward. -- Increase in extraction taxes that also rose by 40%, the taxes are calculated on the quantity of ore mined at current gold prices. The average gold price achieved increased as prices rose in the period to US$1,939/oz (H1 2021 US$1,830/oz).
Sekisovskoye produced 14,440oz of gold in H1 2022 (H1 2022: 16,965oz), a shortfall of 15% from the prior year. Gold sold during the period amounted to 14,284oz (H2 2021: 17,542oz).
Due to the increase in the operating costs the cash cost of production (cost of sales excluding depreciation and provisions) for the period was US$1,110/oz (H1 2022 US$730/oz). The total cash cost was US$1,344/oz as compared to US$884/oz in H1 2022. This is expected to decrease as the planned level of production rises.
In terms of administrative costs these increased by US$600k, as a result of inflationary price rises, and increased promotional activity.
The Group's gearing has increased as substantial amounts have been invested in equipment and upgrades to the processing plant. With the planned repayments being made during the year, the amount due within one year has dropped to US$16.8m from US$19.4m, total borrowings are US$55m (2022: US$25m).
As of 30 June 2023, the Group had cash balances of US$5.4m (2022: US$1.1m).
Mine developments
H1 2023 Operational Overview -- Sekisovskoye
The principal development milestones achieved in the period were:
Tunnelling and decline development of 2,963 linear metres was carried out in the period, exploration drilling amounted to 611 metres.
The ore bodies that have been developed for mining extraction are ore body No. 5.5 which produced 112,000t of ore, ore bodies No. 6-6 producing 139,000t . In addition ore body 11produced 54,000t, and other sites 128,000t
Ore bodies 11 and 5.5 are continuing to be developed at +84masl and +67masl. Initial indications are that the ore bodies will generate grades of between 2 and 2.10g/t, with the lowers grades achieved in the period due to the dilution of ore as extensive mining was carried out.
H1 2023 -- Teren-Sai
In the current period there has been reduced development activity at the Teren-Sai project as the Company has been waiting on the approval of the licence extension and development plan.
Due to administrative delays, resulting from strict timelines in processing forms at each stage of review or resubmission process the final approval is now expected in Q4 2023 as the licence application in final form was resubmitted in August 2023. The licence will run for a two year period from the date of grant.
In summary there are 5 identified areas with the most promising areas of mineralisation being areas No. 2, 4 and 5, further detailed delineation of the ore bodies will be performed:
-- Area 2 -- 25 main ore intersections in 7 wells. -- Area 4 -- 15 main ore intersections in 6 wells. -- Area 6 -- 14 main ire intersections in 14 wells.
The work program will involve the development of 133 wells, and geophysical research amounting to 1,995 linear metres , as well as directional core drilling amounting to 39,900 linear metres.

Directors Responsibility Statement and Report on Principal Risks and Uncertainties
Responsibility statement
The Board confirms to the best of their knowledge, that the condensed set of financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the UK-adopted International Accounting Standard 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules sourcebook of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
The interim management report includes a fair review of the information required by:
DTR 4.2.7R of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, being an indication of important events that have occurred during the first six months of the financial year and their impact on the condensed set of financial statements; and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the year; and
DTR 4.2.8R of the Disclosures and Transparency Rules, being related party transactions that have taken place in the first six months of the current financial year and that have materially affected the financial position or performance of the entity during the period; and any changes in the related party transactions described in the last annual report that could do so.
The Company's management has analysed the risks and uncertainties and has in place control systems that monitor daily the performance of the business via key performance indicators. Certain factors are beyond the control of the Company such as the fluctuations in the price of gold and possible political upheaval. However, the Company is aware of these factors and tries to mitigate these as far as possible. In relation to the gold price the Company is pushing to achieve a lower cost base in order to minimise possible downward pressure of gold prices on profitability. In addition, it maintains close relationships with the Kazakhstan authorities in order to minimise bureaucratic delays and problems.
Risks and uncertainties identified by the Company are set out on page 9 and 10 of the 2022 Annual Report and Accounts and are reviewed on an ongoing basis. There have been no significant changes in the first half of 2023 to the principal risks and uncertainties as set out in the Annual Report and Accounts and these are as follows:
-- Fiscal changes in Kazakhstan -- No access to capital -- Commodity price risk -- Currency risk -- Reliance on operating in one country -- Reliant on one operating mine -- Technical difficulties associated with developing the underground mines at Sekisovskoye and Teren-Sai -- Failure to achieve production estimates -- Inflationary and currency risk -- Health, safety and environment
The Directors do not expect any changes in the principal risks for the remaining six months of the financial year.

ALTYNGOLD PLC
Notes to the consolidated financial information -- six months 30 June 2023
1. Basis of preparation
General
AltynGold Plc (the "Company") is a Company incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act 2006. The address of its registered office, and place of business of the Company and its subsidiaries is set out within the Company information at the end of this interim report
The Company is registered and domiciled in England and Wales, whose shares are publicly traded on the London Stock Exchange. The interim financial results for the period ended 30 June 2023 are unaudited. The financial information contained within this report does not constitute statutory accounts as defined by Section 434(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
This interim financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries ("the Group") for the six months ended 30 June 2023 have been prepared, in accordance with the UK-adopted International Accounting Standard 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules sourcebook of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority, and on a basis consistent with the accounting policies set out in the Group's consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. It has not been audited, does not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, which has been prepared in accordance with both "international accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006" and "international financial reporting standards as adopted by the United Kingdom".
These interim financial statements do not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022 were approved by the board of directors on 5 May 2023 and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors on those accounts was not qualified, further details are available on page 39 of the 2022 annual report.
The financial statements have not been reviewed.
The financial information is presented in US Dollars and has been prepared under the historical cost convention and IFRS and UK adopted international accounting standards.
The same accounting policies, presentation and method of computation together with critical accounting estimates, assumptions and judgements are followed in this consolidated financial information as were applied in the Group's latest annual financial statements except that in the current financial year, the Group has adopted a number of revised Standards and Interpretations. However, none of these have had a material impact on the Group. In addition, the IASB has issued a number of IFRS and IFRIC amendments or interpretations since the last annual report was published. It is not expected that any of these will have a material impact on the Group.
Going concern
Turnover and profitability decreased during the period due to the set-up of the expanded production facilities that diverted the Group from its planned processing targets. The processing is now moving back to its planned production levels.
At the period end the Group had cash resources of US$5.4m (31 December 2022: US$1.1m). The Board have reviewed the Group's cash flow forecasts for the period to December 2024. The forecasts are based on the current approved budgets taking into account any adjustments from current trading. The principal capital costs have now been made and the Directors are of the opinion that the current cash balances and cash generated from future mining of the operation will be sufficient for the Group to meet its cash flow requirements.
The Board have considered at the period end possible stress case scenarios that they consider may likely impact the Group's operations, financial position and forecasts, such as factors impacting the production and possible falls in gold prices. From the analysis undertaken the Board have concluded that the Group will be able to continue to trade based on its existing resources. The stress tests included a drop in the gold price of 10% from the current gold price and budgeted production by 10%, in both scenarios and combination of both together it was concluded that the Group had sufficient cash reserves to continue to operate. The Board therefore considers it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.
2. Segmental information
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments and making strategic decision, has been identified as the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors consider there to be two operating segments, the exploration and development of mineral resources at Sekisovskoye and at Teren-Sai, both based in one geographical segment, being Kazakhstan. All sales were made in Kazakhstan from the mine at Sekisovskoye. However, in relation to Teren-Sai as there is discrete financial information available and the assets account for greater than 10% of the combined total assets of all segments it is a separate operating segment.
Teren-Sai is an exploration asset, details of the carrying value of the asset are shown in note 5.
3. Profit per ordinary share
Basic profit per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of ordinary shares and retained profit for the financial period for calculating the basic loss per share for the period are as follows:
Six months Six months ended 30 ended 30 June 2023 June 2022 (unaudited) (unaudited) The basic weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period 27,332,934 27,332,934 The profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders (US$'000s) 2,983 10,867
4. Alternative performance measures
The Directors have presented the alternative performance measures adjusted EBITDA , operating cash cost and total cash cost as they monitor these performance measures at a consolidated level and the Directors believe it is relevant in measuring the Group's performance.
A reconciliation of the alternative performance measures is shown below.
Adjusted EBITDA, operating cash cost and total cash cost are not defined performance measures in IFRS. The Group's definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable with similar titled performance measures as disclosed by other entities.
