Business development update

and Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2020

The Board of Ormonde (the "Board") announces the Company's unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2020. During the period, Ormonde completed the disposal of its 30% interest in the Barruecopardo Tungsten Mine, for a EUR6 million cash consideration, and thereafter focussed its efforts on the review of its other Spanish assets and new opportunities for the deployment of its capital and enhancement of shareholder value.

Following an extensive review of a wide range of resource projects, since the completion of the Barruecopardo disposal, the Board is pleased to advise that the Company has recently entered into an exclusivity agreement in relation to a potential acquisition of a resource project. Due diligence is ongoing, the pace of which may be impacted by COVID-19 related limitations, with there being no certainty that a transaction will be concluded. The Company will provide an update to shareholders in relation to progress as appropriate.

Spanish projects

-- Gold licences: Planning and permitting in relation to a cost-effective field programme has been advanced at certain of the Company's existing Spanish gold exploration projects to follow up on high grade gold intersections from previous drilling campaigns.

-- La Zarza: The Company continues to pursue the disposal of its assets relating to the La Zarza copper-gold project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt.

Financial results

-- The Company reports a profit after tax for the six months ended 30 June 2020 of EUR1,160,000 (2019: EUR1,108,000 loss). The reported profit includes a gain of EUR1,600,000 related to accounting for the completion of the Barruecopardo Mine disposal in February 2020.

   --     As at 30 June 2020, the Company held EUR5.6 million of cash. 

Jonathan Henry, Ormonde's Chairman, commented:

"Having completed the disposal of our interest in the Barruecopardo Mine for a EUR6 million cash consideration, the principal focus of the Company has been on the identification of a compelling resource opportunity.

In this regard, I am pleased to advise that the Company has recently signed an exclusivity agreement, and commenced a due diligence process, in relation to what the Board believes to be an exceptional resource opportunity. We very much look forward to advancing diligence on this new opportunity towards completion of a transaction, the aim of which is to create substantial value for shareholders, and we look forward to updating shareholders on progress in this regard, in due course."

Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

   1.    Accounting policies and basis of preparation 

Ormonde Mining plc is a company domiciled in the Republic of Ireland. The Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements ("the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements") of the Company, as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2020, comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group").

The comparative information provided in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements relating to the year ended 31 December 2019 does not comprise statutory financial statements. The audit opinion on the statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019 was unqualified. However, the auditors drew attention by way of an emphasis of matter paragraph to the disclosures made by the Company as to the impact of COVD-19 on the Group's activities.

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 31 December 2019, which are available on the Company's website, www.ormondemining.com. The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 June 2020 are unaudited but have been reviewed by the Company's auditors.

The interim consolidated financial information in this report has been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (" IFRS") as adopted by the European Union. IFRS is subject to amendment and interpretation by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the IFRS Interpretations Committee and there is an ongoing process of review and endorsement by the European Commission. These policies are consistent with those to be adopted in the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2020. The accounting policies applied by the Group in the interim report are the same as those applied by the Group in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The principal risks and uncertainties of the Group have not changed since the last annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The Board of Directors have carefully considered the impact of COVID-19, noting the widespread disruption to normal activities and the uncertainty over the duration of this disruption. The Group is currently seeking new investment opportunities and has been impacted by COVID-19, particularly in relation to management's ability to conduct technical due diligence in overseas jurisdictions.

The Group has provisional plans to undertake limited on-site exploration activity on its current Spanish licenses, which have a book value of EUR295,000. Three currently issued Investigation Permits are due to expire at various dates in mid-2021. If exploration activities prior to renewal falls short of the approved work programmes then it is possible that any application for license renewal may be declined by the relevant authorities, which would result in the licenses becoming impaired.

The Board of Directors are satisfied that the Group has sufficient resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, being a period of not less than 12 months from the date of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial information.

The unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 15 September 2020.

Diluted earnings per share

The exercise price of all extant share options is greater than the average share price for the six month period and therefore the options are not-dilutive.

Due to the Group's results for the comparative periods, the share options are anti-dilutive and therefore diluted earnings per share is the same as the basic earnings per share.

Independent Review Report to Ormonde Mining plc

Introduction

We have been engaged by Ormonde Mining plc (" the Company") to review t he Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements ("the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements") in the half yearly report of the Company as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2020 comprising the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Statement of Cashflows, the Consolidated Changes in Equity and the related explanatory notes. 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 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements .

Directors' responsibilities

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are the responsibility of, and have been approved by, the Board of Directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

As disclosed in note 1, the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") as adopted by the European Union ("EU"). The Board of Directors are responsible for ensuring that the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this half-yearly financial report have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the EU.

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the Interim Consolidated 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 (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity", issued by the Financial Reporting Council. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, 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 (Ireland) 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 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements in the half-yearly report for the six months ended 30 June 2020 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 as adopted by the European Union.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with the terms of our engagement. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company those matters we are required to state to it in this 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 reached.
