Bisichi Mining PLC
Half year review - 30 June 2018
We are very pleased to report that for the six month period ending on 30 June
2018, Bisichi Mining PLC achieved earnings before interest, tax, depreciation
and amortisation of GBP5.2million (2017: GBP1.4 million).
During the first half of 2018, Black Wattle continued to benefit from the
infrastructure improvements to the coal washing plant that were reported to
shareholders in 2017. These improvements have enabled Black Wattle to deliver a
higher rate of production from our opencast areas and achieve an increased
overall yield compared to the first half of 2017. The mine's total production
was 670,000 metric tonnes (2017: 582,000 metric tonnes) during the period
reported.
In terms of markets, a shortage of coal in the domestic market and a strong
demand for coal in the international market have continued to impact positively
on the prices achievable for our coal during the period. At the end of June
2018 the average weekly price of Free on Board (FOB) Coal from Richard Bay Coal
Terminal (API4 price) reached levels of over US$105 per metric tonne, compared
to US$95 at the end of 2017 and US$85 at the beginning of 2017. The higher coal
prices, along with a stable Rand and improved production attributed to the
increase in Group revenue compared to the same period last year.
Looking forward to the rest of this year, management will continue to focus on
increasing our life of mine at Black Wattle, through the acquisition of
additional coal reserves, as well as maintaining levels of production in order
to benefit from the higher prices achievable for our coal.
In other news, and as reported to shareholders earlier this year, the Group has
formed a joint venture to acquire the freehold of five shops and to develop
flats in West Ealing, London. Bisichi and London & Associated Properties PLC, a
41.52% shareholder of Bisichi, each own 45% of the joint venture, with the
remaining 10% owned by Metroprop Real Estate Ltd. The joint venture includes
shops that produce a current rent of cGBP140,000 per annum and has planning
consent for 20 flats at first and second floor which will be eligible for the
UK Government Help to Buy Scheme. At present the Group has no further news to
report on this exciting real estate transaction, however we look forward to
updating shareholders as the development progresses.
Finally, the Company's current UK retail property portfolio, which is managed
by London & Associated Properties, continues to perform well with the group
achieving revenue from our directly owned property portfolio of GBP0.55million
(2017: GBP0.56million) during the period.
Your directors intend to pay an interim dividend of 1p per share which will be
paid on the 8 February 2019, to shareholders on the register at the close of
business on 4 January 2019.
On behalf of the Board we would like to thank all our staff for their hard work
during the first six months of the year.

1. Earnings/ (loss) per share
Both the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations are based on a
profit of GBP2,376,000 (2017: GBP253,000). The basic earnings per share has been
calculated on a weighted average of 10,676,839 (2017: 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
(2017: 10,676,839) plus the dilutive potential ordinary shares arising from
share options of 165,400 (2017: nil) totalling 10,842,239 (2017: 10,676,839).
1. Investment properties
Investment properties are included at valuation as at 31 December 2017 plus
additions in the period ended 30 June 2018.
1. 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 2017. The
group paid management fees of GBP68,750 (30 June 2017: GBP68,750 31 December 2017:
GBP137,500) to London & Associated Properties PLC, an associated company.
1. 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 2017 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
European Union 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 Mining PLC are prepared in
accordance with IFRS as adopted by European Union. The same accounting policies
are used for the six months ended 30 June 2018 as were used for the year ended
31 December 2017.
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 following new or revised standards that are applicable to the
group were issued but not yet effective:
IFRS 16 - Leases
The largest areas of estimation and uncertainty in the interim financial
statements are in respect of:
* The valuation of investment properties;
* Life of mine and reserves;
* Depreciation;
* Provision for rehabilitation (relating to environmental rehabilitation of
mining areas);
* Impairment and;
* Carrying values of mining joint ventures
The following new standards have become effective and have been adopted by the
Group during the year:
IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contract with Customers
The Group has applied IFRS 15 retrospectively and the new standard had no
material financial impact on the accounts.
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments
The adoption of IFRS 9 has resulted in changes in the Group's accounting
policies for the recognition, classification and measurement of financial
assets and financial liabilities and impairment of financial assets. The only
material impact of IFRS 9 on the Group financial statements related to the
movement in fair value of the Groups held for trading (previously available for
sale) investments and non-current other investments ("the investments"). Under
IAS 39 the movement in the investments was measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income and taken to an available for sale reserve. Under IFRS 9
the movements are measured at fair value through profit and loss and taken to
retained earnings. The Group has not restated prior periods as allowed by the
transition provisions of IFRS 9. In order to reclassify the impact of historic
movements on the investments, an adjustment of GBP109,000 has been made to the
Group statement of changes in equity at 1 January 2018 transferring the
historical fair value movements of the investments from the available for sale
reserve to retained earnings.
Investment properties are not re-valued at the half year end unless there is
evidence of a material change in valuation. There have been no material changes
in fair value during the period. Please refer to page 60 of the 2017 Annual
report and Accounts for details on the valuation of investment properties as at
31 December 2017.
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 2017.
There is no material seasonal impact on the group's financial performance.
Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using tax rates expected to
be applicable to total annual earnings.
The interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis
as the Directors are satisfied the group has adequate resources to continue in
operational existence for the foreseeable future.
1. Dividend
The interim dividend in respect of 2017, totalling GBP107,000 was paid on the 9th
of February 2018. The final dividends in respect of 2017, totalling GBP427,000
was approved by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on the
6th June 2018 and was paid on the 27th July 2018. The final dividend in respect
of 2017 is included as a liability in these interim financial statements. A
proposed interim dividend for the year ended 31 December 2018 totalling GBP
107,000 was approved by the Board of Directors on 23 August 2018 and has not
been included as a liability in these Interim Financial Statements.
1. Principal risks and uncertainties
The Group has an established risk management process which works within the
corporate governance framework as set out in the 2017 Annual Report and
Accounts. Risks and uncertainties identified by the Group are set out on page
14 of the 2017 Annual Report & Accounts and are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
There have been no significant changes in the first half of 2018 to the
principle risks and uncertainties as set out in the 2017 Annual Report &
Accounts.
