FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 16 August 2018
Capital Drilling Limited
("Capital Drilling", the "Group" or the "Company")
Half Year Results
For the period ended 30 June 2018 and Interim Dividend
Capital Drilling, a leading drilling solutions company focused on the African markets, today announces half year results for the period ended 30 June 2018.

Financial Overview
-- First half revenue of $54.5 million, 4.6% lower than H2 2017 at $57.1 million (H1 2017: $62.3 million)
-- Lower revenue driven by reduced fleet utilisation as the Group continues to redeploy assets to West Africa
-- EBITDA increased by 7.8% to $12.5 million (H1 2017: $11.6 million), with EBITDA margins expanding to 22.9% (H1 2017: 18.7%), reflecting the benefits of improved cost management
-- Net profit after tax of $2.8 million, 7.7% increase on H1 2017 (H1 2017: $2.6 million)
-- Capex increased by 11% to $4.7 million (H1 2017: $4.2 million), primarily directed to the purchase of replacement production rigs and asset improvements

- Resolute (Mali): Awarded a three-year surface exploration drilling contract, currently drilling with three rigs
-- Contract wins reflecting the continued improvement in the exploration drilling market
-- Long term contract wins (Resolute and Kinross) building the Group's portfolio of multi-year mine-site based contracts
-- Made significant progress expanding the Group's presence in the West Africa region, including asset mobilisations which increased our rig number to 26 rigs, with further rigs scheduled for Q3 arrival
-- Established infrastructure with offices, warehouses, workshops and accommodation in Bamako, Mali, and Yamoussoukro, Côte d'Ivoire, adding to the existing presence in Mauritania
-- Appointed a Business Development Manager, Julian Blake, initially based in Ghana
-- H1 utilisation of 46%, down from 56% in H1 2017, on an average fleet size of 94 rigs, with substantial assets redeployment to West Africa
-- H1 Average Revenue per Operating Rig (ARPOR) increased to $200,000 (H1 2017: $191,000)
-- Continued strength in ARPOR reflecting strong contract performance at major mine site contracts
Health & Safety
-- Previously announced world class achievements: - Mali (Syama Project) achieved two years LTI free in June 2018 - Tanzania (North Mara Project) achieved two years LTI free in March 2018 - Tanzania (Geita Project) achieved one year LTI free in March 2018
Outlook
-- Trading conditions continue to be supportive, with elevated levels of enquires and tendering requests
-- Capital markets activity continues to support future demand, albeit recent weakness in metal prices and economic uncertainty has lead to an easing in market sentiment since the last update
-- Cash generation from miners remain at healthy levels which is driving increased budgets and demand from the producers
-- Recent contract awards add to the Group's portfolio of long term production and mine-site based contracts
-- While activity levels in Tanzania remain subdued, recent feedback suggest constructive dialogue with the Government and progress with the newly formed Mining Commission
-- Asset deployment and infrastructure development in the key West African market has provided Capital Drilling with a solid platform to grow operations in this high growth market
-- The Group maintains a strong balance sheet and unutilised assets to capture future growth opportunities
Following a number of contract wins across existing countries of operation, including the key focus market of West Africa, the Group maintains its upgraded revenue guidance range of $105 to $115 million for 2018.
Commenting on the results, Jamie Boyton, Executive Chairman of Capital Drilling, said:
"We are pleased to report another strong half yearly result, both in terms of the Group's financial performance and strategy execution. With a supportive demand cycle and robust discipline from the management team on costs and CAPEX, the Group has continued to deliver on its financial goals, with solid free cash flow and a strong balance sheet. Particularly pleasing was the increase in key profitability measures and margins, despite the reduced fleet utilisation and revenue, driven by the strategic redeployment of assets to the key West African markets. As a result of the performance, we have today announced an interim dividend to shareholders of 0.6 cents per share, representing a 20% increase on the prior half year period.
The building of our business in West Africa has been the major focus of our growth strategy over the past 6 months. The Group has developed new operational centres in Côte d'Ivoire and Mali over the period, complementing our long established operations in Mauritania, all of which provide the infrastructure to deploy further production and exploration rigs into what is regarded as one of the fastest growing drilling markets in the industry. We ended the half year period with 26 rigs across these countries, almost doubling our capacity in the six month period, with further rigs and assets due to arrive in the third quarter.
Our increased footprint and presence in West Africa has yielded early results, with the Group announcing three new contracts in the region, with Kinross Gold (Tasiast), Resolute Mining (Syama) and Hummingbird Resources (Yanfolila). As a result of these contract wins, along with exploration contract wins in Botswana, Egypt and Tanzania, the Group expects to see an increase in utilisation rates over the second half, which fully underpins the investment we have made to target the West African market.
Outside of West Africa our core long term contracts in Tanzania and Egypt have continued to perform strongly, which was reflected in a further improvement in Average Revenue per Operating Rig for the period. We are encouraged to see early signs of improvement in the Tanzanian market, including the formation of the Mining Commission and increasingly positive feedback on Government engagement from companies operating in the country. The awarding of our first exploration contract in Tanzania in two years is particularly encouraging, as we continue to seek to utilise our substantial latent capacity in our exploration fleet.
We are pleased to have had another exceptional quarter in terms of our safety record, which remains at the heart of our strategy, with a number of new safety records at Syama, North Mara and Geita sites.
We enter the second half of 2018 in a strong position, with our traditional markets in East Africa now complemented with a substantial presence in the key West African region. Tendering & enquiry levels remain robust and we are confident of future contract wins in the period ahead."

Such statements are based on a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by management at the time, are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties. Capital Drilling cautions that such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual financial results, performance or achievements of Capital Drilling to be materially different than the Company's estimated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. These factors include the inherent risks involved in exploration and development of mineral properties, changes in economic conditions, changes in the worldwide price of commodities and project execution delays, many of which are beyond the control of Capital Drilling.

INDEPENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT ON INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF CAPITAL DRILLING LIMITED
We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed consolidated set of interim financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2018 which comprises the consolidated condensed statements of comprehensive income, financial position, changes in equity, the cash flow statement and related notes 1 to 18. We have read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed consolidated set of financial statements.
This report is made solely to the company in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board ("IAASB"). Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company those matters we are required to state to it in an independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company, for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.
Directors' responsibilities
The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the group are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the "IASB"). The condensed consolidated set of interim financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" issued by the IASB.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Group a conclusion on the condensed consolidated set of interim financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the IAASB. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated set of interim financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2018 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as issued by the IASB and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.

Basis of presentation and accounting policies Preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Capital Drilling Limited and Subsidiaries ("Capital Drilling" or the "Group") as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2018 (the "Interim Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") No. 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". They should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Group's Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2017 which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The Interim Financial Statements have been reviewed in terms of International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410. Accounting policies The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value. The Group has adopted a number of new standards and interpretations effective on or before 1 January 2018, which were described in note 2 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017. The adoption of these standards and interpretations did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation have been followed in these condensed consolidated financial statements as were applied in the preparation of the Group's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 except for new accounting policies adopted during the year described in Note 4 and Note 5. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS recognition and measurement principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management reviews its estimates on an on-going basis using current available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Operations in the interim period Capital Drilling Limited is incorporated in Bermuda. The Group provides drilling services including but not limited to exploration, development, grade control and blast hole drilling services to mineral exploration and mining companies located in emerging and developing markets. The Group also provides some equipment rental and information technology services to mining and mining related companies. During the six months ended 30 June 2018, the Group provided drilling services in Egypt, Mauritania, Mali, Tanzania and Kenya. The seasonality of the Group's operations has no significant impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. 3. Taxation Capital Drilling Limited is incorporated in Bermuda. No taxation is payable on the results of the Bermuda business. Taxation for other jurisdictions is calculated in terms of the legislation and rates prevailing in the respective jurisdictions. CAPITAL DRILLING LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the six months ended 30 June 2018 3. Taxation (continued) The Group operates in multiple jurisdictions with complex legal and tax regulatory environments. In certain of these jurisdictions, the Group has taken income tax positions that management believes are supportable and are intended to withstand challenge by tax authorities. Some of these positions are inherently uncertain and include those relating to transfer pricing matters and the interpretation of income tax laws. The Group periodically reassesses its tax positions. Changes to the financial statement recognition, measurement, and disclosure of tax positions is based on management's best judgment given any changes in the facts, circumstances, information available and applicable tax laws. Considering all available information and the history of resolving income tax uncertainties, the Group believes that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not likely have a material effect on the Group's financial position, statements of operations or cash flows. Due to the tax charge calculations in certain countries in which the Group operates being based on revenues instead of profits, the consolidated taxation expense for the period is not directly linked to profits and losses. 4. IFRS 15 'Revenue from Contracts with Customers' In the current financial year Capital Drilling has adopted IFRS 15 'Revenue from Contracts with Customers'. The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. "IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers", effective from 1 January 2018 identifies performance obligations in contracts with customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognises revenue as performance obligations are satisfied. The standard requires revenue recognition either "over time" or at a "point in time" and additionally requires more detailed disclosures. A detailed review of all material contracts confirmed that IFRS 15 will not result in a material change to the timing of revenue or profit recognition on drilling contracts or long-term drilling contracts. This assessment reflects that Capital Drilling's contracting arrangements, which are predominantly long-term drilling contracts, result in the continual transfer of benefits and corresponding revenue recognition of the Group's performance to customers over time. When first applying IFRS 15, entities should apply the standard
in full for the current period, including retrospective application to all contracts that were not yet complete at the beginning of that period. In respect of prior periods, the transition guidance allows entities an option to either: [IFRS 15:C3]. * Option 1 - apply IFRS 15 in full to prior periods (with certain limited practical expedients being available); or * Option 2- retain prior period figures as reported under the previous standards, recognising the cumulative effect of applying IFRS 15 as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity as at the date of initial application (beginning of current reporting period). As part of the transition guidance, management have opted for option 2, where prior period figures are reported under the previous standards and an adjustment to be made to the opening balance of equity as at the date of initial application. In view that there is no material change to the timing of revenue or profit recognition, there is no adjustment required to the opening balance of equity. Capital Drilling has always adopted a prudent approach to contract accounting.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments In the current year Capital Drilling has adopted IFRS 9 Financial Instruments effective since 1 January 2018. The standard comprises guidance on Classification and Measurement, Impairment Hedge Accounting and Derecognition: * IFRS 9 introduces a new approach to the classification of financial assets, which is driven by the business model in which the asset is held and their cash flow characteristics. A new business model was introduced which does allow certain financial assets to be categorised as 'fair value through other comprehensive income' (FVTOCI) in certain circumstances. The requirements for financial liabilities are mostly carried forward unchanged from IAS 39. However, some changes were made to the fair value option for financial liabilities to address the issue of own credit risk. * The new model introduces a single impairment model being applied to all financial instruments, as well as an 'expected credit loss' model for the measurement of financial assets. * IFRS 9 contains a new model for hedge accounting that aligns the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of an entity, in addition, enhanced disclosures will provide better information about risk management and the effect of hedge accounting on the financial statements. * IFRS 9 carries forward the derecognition requirements of financial assets and liabilities from IAS 39. * Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation. The narrow-scope amendment allows companies to measure particular prepayable financial assets with negative compensation at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income if a specified condition is met. Capital Drilling has assessed the impact of this amendment and found no material impact on specific or general provisions for credit losses on its separate and consolidated financial statements other than the additional disclosure requirements. Capital Drilling does not have complex financial Instruments. The accounting treatment for financial instruments under IFRS 9 and the historical accounting treatment of Capital Drilling financial instruments does not differ materially due to this absence of complex financial instruments. Based on the historical loss ratios we are of the view that the impairment of trade receivables due to the change of the impairment model is not material. IFRS 9 did not significantly impact the accounting treatment of inter-company loans. The company and group does not have any hedged exposures and hedge accounting is therefore not applicable.

CAPITAL DRILLING LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the six months ended 30 June 2018 15. Contingencies Zambia Tax: As disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017, Capital Drilling (Zambia) Limited is a party to various tax claims made by the Zambian Revenue Authority for the tax years 2007 to 2013. On 30 April 2015, the Company received a tax assessment from the Zambian Revenue Authority totalling ZMW 144.1 million (USD equivalent: $13.1 million), inclusive of penalties and interest. The claims relate to various taxes, including income tax, value added tax, payroll tax and withholding tax. Since the assessment date, Management have responded in detail to these claims, providing the Zambian Revenue Authority with detailed analysis and arguments justifying the Company's tax position. No amount has yet been paid in this regard and no additional communication or actions were received from the Zambian Revenue Authority to date. Capital Drilling (Zambia) is currently dormant with no drilling revenue since November 2014. An amount of $1.6 million has been raised relating to certain areas of the claim, however the directors are of the opinion that a significant portion of the tax claim by the Zambia Revenue Authority is without merit. Tanzania tax: Capital Drilling (T) Ltd is party to a payroll tax claim made by the Tanzanian Revenue Authority (TRA) for the tax years 2009-2015. During the financial year ended 31 December 2016, the company received an immediate demand notice from the (TRA) for Tanzanian Shillings of 18,598,361,197 (US$ 8,374,660), inclusive of penalties and interest. Management objected to the assessment raised by the TRA and requested the calculations of the notice. In order to object, according to Tanzanian Tax Law Sections 51(1) and (5) of the TAA 2015, a taxpayer is required to pay the tax amount not in dispute or one third of the assessed tax whichever is greater. It is prudent to note that the Finance Act in 2016 added a further subsection (9) in Section 51 regarding tax objections and assessments. The said amendment provides: "Where the taxpayer fails to pay the amount stated under subsection (5) within the time provided therein, the assessed tax decision shall be confirmed as final tax assessment in terms of section 15(1)(a) of the Tax Revenue Appeals Act." In accordance with the above-mentioned legislation, management reached an agreement with the TRA to pay Tanzanian Shillings of 1,500,000,000 ($0.7 million) in lieu of the one third of the assessed value. This amount was fully provided for in the 2016 Annual Financial Statements. In June 2017 the TRA provided their workings to Capital Drilling (T) Ltd. Capital Drilling (T) Ltd identified differences with the TRA on both the specific merits and methodology used to determine the value. Capital Drilling engaged PWC Tanzania and on 30 April 2018 provided updated calculations for review. Feedback from the TRA is pending. Capital Drilling (T) Ltd has maintained an engaging relationship with the TRA to find closure and resolution to this matter. In order to continue the discussions and negotiations with the TRA, Capital Drilling (T) Ltd has, at the request of the TRA, paid an additional amount of Tanzanian Shillings of 2,600,000,000 ($1.14 million) as at 30 June 2018. This is in line with the aforementioned Tanzanian Tax Law. The TRA also raised a Withholding Tax liability of TZS 2,244,907,829 (US$ 1,024,268) inclusive of interest and penalties. The TRA considered assets purchased by Capital Drilling (T) Ltd as leased. The TRA interpreted these assets as a rental agreement rather than permanent acquisition of these assets, which results in no Withholding Tax liability. Management lodged an objection on 14 November 2016 and paid an upfront payment of TZS 170,000,000 (US$ 77,564) in order to have the objection validated and acknowledged, as is required per subsection (9) in Section 51 of the Income Tax Act of Tanzania. Based on the above, management assessed no further liability with regards to this assessment. As at 31 December 2017, this objection is still pending with the TRA and no resolution has been reached as yet. CAPITAL DRILLING LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the six months ended 30 June 2018 16. Events post the reporting date Interim dividend declared: The directors proposed that an interim dividend of 0.6 cent per share be paid to shareholders on 5 October 2018. This dividend has not been included as a liability in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. The proposed dividend is payable to all shareholders on the Register of Members on 7 September 2018. The total estimated interim dividend to be paid is $0.8 million (2017: $0.7 million). The payment of this dividend will have no tax consequences for the Group. 17. Going concern The Group has set specific objectives and also has policies and processes in place to manage its capital and its financial, credit risk and liquidity risks. The Group has borrowings and debt facilities which, together with its clients' receipts, fund its day to day working capital requirements. Volatile economic conditions may create uncertainty particularly over (a) the level of demand for the Group's services; (b) exchange rate fluctuations against the US Dollar and thus the consequence for the cost of the Group's direct costs; and (c) the availability of bank financing in the foreseeable future. The Group's forecasts and projections, taking into account potential changes in its performance, show that the Group should be able to operate within the level of its capital structure. The Group continuously discusses its future borrowing and / or refinancing needs with its bankers and no matters have been drawn to its attention to suggest that these needs may not be met on acceptable terms. The directors confirm that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Group continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the interim financial statements. 18. Financial instruments Financial instruments that are measured in the consolidated statement of financial position or disclosed at fair value require disclosure of fair value measurements by level based on the following fair value measurement hierarchy: -- Level quoted prices (unadjusted) in active 1: markets for identical assets or liabilities; -- Level inputs other than quoted prices included 2: within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices); and -- Level inputs for the asset or liability that are 3: not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

The FVTOCI investments are designated as level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Their fair value is determined using quote bid prices in an active market. The Group's held-for-trading financial assets are options and warrants to acquire shares in listed equity securities that are not traded in an active market. The held-for-trading financial assets are designated as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Their fair value is determined using a binominal tree model valuation technique based on observable market data that includes the value of the underlying security, the exercise price, volatility and risk-free rate of return. The fair values of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market are determined using standard valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where available and rely as little as possible on Group specific estimates. The directors consider that the carrying value amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the consolidated financial statements are approximately equal to their fair values. The fair values disclosed for the financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy have been assessed to approximate their carrying amounts based on a discounted cash flow assessment. CAPITAL DRILLING LIMITEDSTATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITY For the six months ended 30 June 2018 The directors are responsible for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and the preparation and integrity of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related information. The auditors are responsible for expressing a review conclusion on the condensed consolidated interim financial information based on their review. The directors are also responsible for the Group's systems of internal financial control. These are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance as to the reliability of the financial statements, and to adequately safeguard, verify and maintain accountability for the Group's assets, and to prevent and detect misstatement and loss. Nothing has come to the attention of the directors to indicate that any material breakdown in the functioning of these controls, procedures and systems has occurred during the six months under review. We confirm that to the best of our knowledge: a) the condensed set of consolidated interim financial statements, which has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Boards gives a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the Group as required by DTR4.2.4R; b) the interim management report includes a fair review of the information required by DTR 4.2.7R and DTR4.2.8; and c) there has been no significant individual related party transactions during the first six months of the financial year and nor have there been any significant changes in the Group's related party relationships from those reported in the Group's annual financial statement for the year ended 31 December 2017.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis since the directors believe that the Group has adequate resources in place to continue in operation for the foreseeable future. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the board of directors on 13 August 2018.

Adjusted EBITDA is non-IFRS financial measures that is used as supplemental financial measures by management and external users of financial statements, such as investors, to assess our financial and operating performance. These non-IFRS financial measures will assist our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period. We believe that including Adjusted EBITDA assists our management and investors in: - i. understanding and analysing the results of our operating and business performance, and ii. monitoring our ongoing financial and operational strength in assessing whether to continue to hold our shares. This is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of depreciation and amortisation, income (loss) from associate, interest income, finance charges, fair value adjustment on financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and realised gain (loss) on FVTOCI shares, which may significantly affect comparability of results of operations between periods. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered as alternatives to, or as substitutes for, or superior to, profit or loss for the period or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with IFRS. Further other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently from how we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure. Net cash (debt) Net cash (debt) is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as cash and cash equivalents less short term and long-term debt. Management believe that net cash (debt) is a useful indicator of the Group's indebtedness, financial flexibility and capital structure because it indicates the level of borrowings after taking account of cash and cash equivalents within the Group's business that could be utilised to pay down the outstanding borrowings. Management believes that net debt can assist securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate the Group. Net cash (debt) and similar measures are used by different companies for differing purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. Accordingly, caution is required in comparing net debt as reported by the Group to net cash (debt) of other companies. Net Asset Value per share (cents) Net Asset Value per share (cents) is a non-financial measure taking into consideration the total equity over the weighted average number of shares used in the calculation of basic earnings per share. Management believes that the net asset value per share is a useful indicator of the level of safety associated with each individual
share because it indicates the amount of money that a shareholder would get if the Group were to liquidate. Management believes that net asset value per share can assist securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate the Group. Net asset value per share and similar measures are used by different companies for differing purposes and are often calculated in ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. Accordingly, caution is required in comparing net asset value per share as reported by the Group to net asset value per share of other companies. Average revenue per operating rig ARPOR is a non-financial measure defined as the average drilling specific revenue for the period divided by the monthly average active operating rigs. Drilling specific revenue excludes revenue generated from shot crew, a blast hole service that does not require a rig to perform but forms part of drilling. Management uses this indicator to assess the operational performance across the board on a period by period basis even if there is an increase or decrease in rig utilisation.
