Tanfield Group Plc

("Tanfield", or "the Company")

Interim Results for the six-month period to 30 June 2020

Tanfield, an investing company as defined by AIM Rules, announces its half year results for the period ending 30 June 2020. The unaudited financial information will shortly be available on the Company website at www.tanfieldgroup.com .

Background

-- Tanfield is a 49% shareholder in the equity of Snorkel International Holdings LLC ("Snorkel") following the joint venture between the Company and Xtreme Manufacturing LLC ("Xtreme") (the "Contemplated Transaction"), a company owned by Don Ahern of Ahern Rentals Inc, relating to Snorkel, in October 2013 .

-- T he Snorkel investment is valued at GBP19.1m. The outcome of the US and UK Proceedings referenced below could have an impact on this valuation.

-- On 22 October 2019, the Company announced that it had received a Summons and Complaint, filed in Nevada (the "US Proceedings") by subsidiaries of Xtreme, relating to the Contemplated Transaction .

-- On 24 October 2019, the Company announced it had become necessary to issue and serve a claim in the English High Court against Ward Hadaway (the "UK Proceedings"), the solicitor acting for the Company at the time of the Contemplated Transaction, in order to fully protect the Company's rights pending the outcome of the US Proceedings.

-- The Company's operating loss in H1 2019 increased to GBP333k (H1 2019: GBP127k) as a consequence of additional legal fees during the period, with the retained loss for the period being GBP369k (H1 2018: GBP127k).

   --    As announced on 30 July 2020, the Company put in place a second loan note instrument of up to GBP1,000,000.  An initial sum of GBP500,000 was subscribed to. 

Overview of investments

As with many manufacturing businesses around the world, Snorkel has been significantly impacted by the global COVID-19 pandemic and many of its manufacturing locations have been closed for substantial periods in order to protect both the workforce as well as other stakeholders and to comply globally with a number of stay at home orders.

Consequently, the first 6 months of 2020 have been materially impacted with sales of US$60.2m, down 46.4% compared to the same period in 2019 (H1 2019: US$112.5m). This resulted in an EBITDA loss of US$6.2m in the first 6 months of 2020 (H1 2019: US$1.0m profit). The increasing impact of the pandemic is further evident when comparing the first and second quarter of 2020 with the corresponding quarters in 2019 which saw the first quarter sales reduced by 15.9% to US$43.4m (Q1 2019: US$51.6m) whereas the second quarter sales reduced by 72.4% to only US$16.8m (Q2 2019: US$60.8m).

Due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board expect that the remainder of 2020 will likely see ongoing reductions in sales when compared to 2019 but it is unable to provide an opinion at this juncture on the level of reduction in sales.

The Board can confirm that both the US Proceedings and the UK Proceedings are continuing to progress, with the Board continuing to seek advice and further updates will be provided to shareholders as and when appropriate.

 1 Basis of preparation 
  The Interim Report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 
  2020 has been prepared in accordance with AIM Rule 18 and not in 
  accordance with IAS34 "Interim Financial Reporting" therefore is 
  not fully in compliance with IFRS. 
 
  The half year report does not constitute financial statements as 
  defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 and does not include 
  all of the information and disclosures required for full annual 
  statements. It should be read in conjunction with the annual report 
  and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019 which 
  is available on request from the Company's registered office, c/o 
  Weightmans LLP, 1 St James' Gate, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE99 1YQ 
  or can be downloaded from the corporate website www.tanfieldgroup.com. 
 
 
  2 Accounting Policies 
  There are no mandatory new and amended standards and interpretations 
  effective from 1 January 2020 that are expected to have a material 
  impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods. 
  Given the operational status of the company, the Directors do not 
  think this new standard, nor any of the matters raised in the Annual 
  Improvements projects 2014 - 2016 and 2015 - 2017, nor the amendments 
  to IAS1 and IAS8, will have a material impact on the interim results. 
  Therefore, the accounting policies adopted are consistent with 
  those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 
  December 2019, as described in those financial statements. In particular, 
  the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis, and as 
  set out on page 17 of those financial statements.
