For immediate release 30 September 2016
NEW WORLD OIL AND GAS PLC
(the "Group" or the "Company")
Interim Report
For the six months ended
30 June 2016
Chairman's Statement
For the six months ended 30 June 2016, the Company reported a profit before tax of GBP108,000 (2014: Loss GBP922,000). During this period, the Board has worked to reduce the Company's cost base from historic levels, which has been achieved through a reduction in the size of the board and associated infrastructure.
The value of all assets relating to the Company's oil and gas activities have been fully written down and the Company's assets now principally comprise cash and short term loans. This Interim Report has been produced in pounds sterling (GBP) as opposed to US Dollars ($). This change has been made as the majority of the Company's assets now comprise cash or short term loans held in GBP and therefore more accurately describes the Company's asset base. The Board also believes that GBP is a more appropriate currency for the Company to report in going forward.
Strategy
As previously announced, given the difficulties facing the oil and gas industry and in raising funds for the Company's existing assets in Belize, the Company has been reviewing various acquisition opportunities in sectors other than oil and gas with a view to creating value for shareholders.
The Company's only remaining oil and gas asset is the Blue Creek Production Sharing Agreement in Belize, which is due to expire on 31 October 2016. The Board has recently announced that the Company is currently seeking to dispose or relinquish this asset. The Company has also commenced the process of dissolving the subsidiaries associated with its Danish licenses which were relinquished in September 2015.
On 9 May 2016, the Company announced that it had entered into a conditional agreement to acquire Big Sofa Limited, a company operating in the high growth sector of video analytics. The work on this acquisition is progressing well and the Company expects to update the market with regard to this possible acquisition in the near future. As at today's date, the Company has provided a total of GBP600,000 as a short term loan for working capital purposes to Big Sofa Limited.
On 9 May 2016, given that the proposed acquisition of Big Sofa Limited would constitute a reverse takeover under the AIM Rules, the Directors requested a suspension in the trading of the shares pending publication of the required AIM admission document. In the event that such a document is not published within six months of suspension, trading in the shares will be cancelled.

1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Presentation of Interim results

The interim accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
The Directors acknowledge their responsibility for the interim report and confirm that, to the best of their knowledge, the interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2016 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, including IAS 34 "Interim Financial Statements", and complies with the listing requirements for companies trading securities on the AIM market.
