Tiger Resource Finance Plc

("Tiger" or the "Company")

Unaudited interim financial statements

for the six months ended 30 June 2017

Tiger (AIM: TIR) is pleased to announce the publication of its unaudited interim results for the six month period ended 30 June 2017 which will shortly be available on the Company's website www.tiger-rf.com

Operations Review

   --     Net Asset Value per share - 1.03p (30 June 2016 - 0.81p/ 31 Dec 2016 - 0.80) 
   --     Total assets of GBP1.42M (30 June 2016 - GBP1.12M/ 31 Dec 2016 - GBP1.16M) 

The period under review has shown a significant improvement in the fortunes of the natural resource sector. Large company valuations have risen significantly with mid-cap and junior resource companies also showing modest gains. Tiger's NAV increased from 0.80 pence per share at 31 December 2016 to 1.03 pence per share at 30 June 2017 being an increase of 29% in the six month period. The Group realised gains of GBP213,450 during the period predominantly from the sale of part of its investment in Galileo Resources Plc.

The inauguration of President Trump has sent mixed signals throughout the world although mature stock markets have seen significant gains following promises of lower taxation, large infrastructure projects and decreasing regulation in the banking and financial services sector. These trends, alongside quantitative easing programmes have set the scene for rising equity prices in the US markets closely followed by Europe as well as in selected emerging markets. In contrast to this, the US foreign policy program is generally in disarray with global threats abundant such as the North Korean nuclear threat, sporadic terrorist attacks in western countries, Middle East instability to name a few factors.

The aforementioned issues would traditionally have created a very nervous market place with stocks tending to lock into a downward trajectory as opposed to rising to all-time highs, but this has not been the case. We feel that that an adverse economic or political event in the not too distant future could trigger negative sentiment which may seriously undermine the current stock market euphoria.

Notwithstanding the above views, the resource sector appears to have regained recognition from investors and the need for raw materials marches on and will not wait for any of the aforementioned threats to subside. Mankind is living in a far more materialistic world today and the demand for white goods, smart phones, hybrid cars and the latest paraphernalia will not diminish any time soon.

The Board feels positive in relation to metal demand, particularly for base metals with copper and zinc being the "favourites". We are undecided about the fortunes for gold as the Tiger team has always been cynical in relation to the driving forces that control this precious metal, being neither predictable or sustainable and as such we will continue to limit exposure to gold, at least in the short and medium terms..

The smaller mining company markets in Australia, Canada and UK have continued to be resilient whilst not showing any significant corporate or large financing activity. We would have expected to see an upswing in M&A activity by this stage of the cycle as well as an increase in the volume of IPO's but both activities have not been as prolific to date as in previous bullish markets. We are however seeing good evidence of secondary placements and small projects being funded which of course are welcome signs.

During the period under review we have been active mainly in passive investments in the resource sector but have not as yet participated in "proactive" investments during the period under review to actively position early stage investment opportunities. We are considering a number of such opportunities and look forward to making positive progress and further increasing Tiger's net asset value during the coming months.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the measurement of certain non-current asset investments at fair value. The measurement basis and principal accounting policies of the Group are set out below. The financial statements have been prepared using policies based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union. These interim financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2017 have been prepared by applying the accounting policies adopted in the audited accounts for the year ended 31 December 2016. As permitted, the Group has chosen not to adopt IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".

   4.         Deferred Tax 

A deferred tax asset on revaluation of AFS investments arose during the period. However, deferred tax assets are not recognised due to the unpredictability of future profit streams arising from the disposal of investments held by the Group. Losses may be carried forward indefinitely and will only be recoverable if suitable profits arise in the future.
