Review of Business Developments
As set out in the Chairman’s Report and review of activities, as well as continuing with its exploration program, the
Company significantly decreased its exploration ground holdings in Tanzania during the period, and continued the
development of its feasibility studies toward mining of the identifiable viable resources.
Rukwa
The Company commenced a Definitive Mine Feasibility Study (“DMFS”) at Rukwa in the the second half of 2014 and
the results emerging to date are highly encouraging. Modelling studies indicate sufficient coal within the current
Mineral Resource to sustain the proposed thermal power plant for a period of up to 40 years. Equally encouraging
are the results of a Pre-feasibility Study on the thermal power generation component of the project also completed
during 2014. Kibo is now continuing with completion of a full integrated coal-power bankable feasibility study and
on the Rukwa Coal to Power Project (RCPP) which it expects to complete during 2015.
An important part of the feasibility studies on the Rukwa coal mine will be further drilling and associated technical
surveys to increase confidence in the existing resource to test for additional coal resources over the rest of the
project, for which the Company believes there is excellent potential. Apart from supplying the planned thermal coal
plant, additional markets for the coal will also be explored such as export and for coal to gas conversion.
Imweru
The Companies near-term plans for its Lake Victoria projects will be primarily focused on Imweru where work is
on-going. An internal optimization study which was validated by the Companies independent consultants (August
2014), has established the potential viability of the existing Imweru Mineral Resource to support an economic
mining operation. Based on these results Kibo commenced a Definitive Mining Feasibility Study (“DMFS”) on the
project during the second half of 2014 with the first output from this study, a Preliminary Economic Assessment
(“PEA”) by independent consultant Minxcon, showing favorable economic indicators for development of a gold mine
on the existing Mineral Resource. The next element of work on the DMFS will comprise the completion of the Pre-
feasibility Study for the project which is planned for 2015. The results of the 2014 economic and technical studies at
Imweru indicate the potential to increase the Company’s total gold resource in the region and extend the life of the
modelled base case gold mine development.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Haneti
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
KIBO MINING PLC
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Operational risk
In early 2015, the Company received the results of an independent geochemical assessment of its historic soil and
rock sample multi-element analytical results for Haneti carried out on its behalf by Australian consultants. The
assessment report concluded that the Mihanza Hill soil and rock anomaly shows strong geochemical characteristics
to those that may be expected to overlie a “chondrite” type Ni-Cu-PGM sulphide target .This results has significantly
improved the quality of this target for nickel sulphide mineralisation as well as validating the prospectivity of the
rest of the Haneti Itiso Ultramafic Complex for this style of nickel sulphide mineralisation.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
Mining operations are subject to hazards normally encountered in exploration, development and production. These
include unexpected geological formations, rock falls, flooding, dam wall failure and other incidents or conditions
which could result in damage to plant or equipment or the environment and which could impact any future
production throughout. Although it is intended to take adequate precautions to minimise risk, there is a possibility
of a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and its financial results. The Company will develop and
maintain policies appropriate to the stage of development of its various projects.
Staffing and Key Personnel Risks
The realisation of exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the discovery and successful development of
economic mineral reserves and is subject to a number of significant potential risks summarised as follows:
Commodity price fluctuations;
Foreign exchange risks;
Uncertainties over development and operational costs;
Political and legal risks, including arrangements with governments for licences, profit sharing and taxation;
Currency exchange fluctuations and restrictions;
Foreign investment risks including increases in taxes, royalties and renegotiation of contracts; and
Liquidity risks.
In addition to the above there can be no assurance that the current exploration program will result in profitable
mining operations.
The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the successful
discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the achievement of profitable operations, and the ability of the
Company to raise additional financing, if necessary, or alternatively upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its
interests on an advantageous basis. Changes in market conditions could require material write downs of the
carrying value of the Company’s assets.
Financial instrument risk
The Company and Group are exposed to risks arising from financial instruments held. These are discussed in Note
20 to the Annual Financial Statements.
Strategic risk
Significant and increasing competition exists for mineral acquisition opportunities throughout the world. As a result
of this competition, the Company may be unable to acquire rights to exploit additional attractive mining properties
on terms it considers acceptable. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will acquire any interest
in additional operations that would yield reserves or result in commercial mining operations. The Company expects
to undertake sufficient due diligence where warranted to help ensure opportunities are subjected to proper
evaluation.
Commercial risk
The mining industry is competitive and there is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of minerals are
discovered, a profitable market will exist for the sale of such minerals. There can be no assurance that the quality of
the minerals will be such that the Company properties can be mined at a profit. Factors beyond the control of the
Company may affect the marketability of any minerals discovered. Mineral prices are subject to volatile price
changes from a variety of factors including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation,
global and regional demand, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates and global or regional consumption
patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to improved mining and production methods.
Ultimately, the Company expects that prior to a development decision; a project could be the subject of a feasibility
analysis to ensure there exists an appropriate level of confidence in its economic viability.
Funding risk
In the past the Company has raised funds via equity contributions from new and existing shareholders, thereby
ensuring the Company remains a going concern until such time that revenues are earned through the sale or
development and mining of a mineral deposit. There can be no assurance that such funds will continue to be
available on reasonable terms, or at all in future. The Directors regularly review cash flow requirements to ensure
the Company can meet financial obligations as and when they fall due.
KIBO MInIng PLC AnnuAL RePORt And ACCOunts 2014 6

Recruiting and retaining qualified personnel is critical to the Company’s success. The number of persons skilled in
the acquisition, exploration and development of mining properties is limited and competition for such persons is
intense. While the Company has good relations with its employees, these relations may be impacted by changes in
the scheme of labour relations which may be introduced by the relevant governmental authorities. Adverse changes
in such legislation may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial
condition. Staff are encouraged to discuss with management, matters of interest to the employees and subjects
affecting day-to-day operations of the Company.
Speculative Nature of Mineral Exploration and Development
Development of the Company’s mineral exploration properties is, amongst others, contingent upon obtaining
satisfactory exploration results and securing additional adequate funding. Mineral exploration and development
involves substantial expenses and a high degree of risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and
careful evaluation may not be able to adequately mitigate. The degree of risk reduces substantially when a
Company’s properties move from the exploration phase to the development phase.
The discovery of mineral deposits is dependent upon a number of factors including the technical skill of the
exploration personnel involved. The commercial viability of a mineral deposit, once discovered, is also dependent
upon a number of factors, including the size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, metal prices and government
regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals,
and environmental protection. In addition, several years can elapse from the initial phase of drilling until
commercial operations are commenced.
Political Stability
The Company is conducting its activities in Tanzania. The Directors believe that the Government of Tanzania
supports the development of natural resources by foreign investors and actively monitor the situation. However,
there is no assurance that future political and economic conditions in Tanzania will not result in the Government of
Tanzania adopting different policies regarding foreign development and ownership of mineral resources. Any
changes in policy affecting ownership of assets, taxation, rates of exchange, environmental protection, labour
relations, repatriation of income and return of capital, may affect the Company’s ability to develop the projects.
Uninsurable Risks
The Company may become subject to liability for accidents, pollution and other hazards against which it cannot
insure or against which it may elect not to insure because of prohibitive premium costs or for other reasons, such as
amounts which exceed policy limits.
Results
The result for the year after providing for depreciation, impairments and taxation amounted to a profit of
£2,125,004 for the year ended (31 December 2013: loss £15,583,337).
Post Statement of Financial Position events
There have been no material post statement of financial position events other than those stated in Note 21 to the

rest of the Haneti Itiso Ultramafic Complex for this style of nickel sulphide mineralisation.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
Mining operations are subject to hazards normally encountered in exploration, development and production. These
include unexpected geological formations, rock falls, flooding, dam wall failure and other incidents or conditions
which could result in damage to plant or equipment or the environment and which could impact any future
production throughout. Although it is intended to take adequate precautions to minimise risk, there is a possibility
of a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and its financial results. The Company will develop and
maintain policies appropriate to the stage of development of its various projects.
Staffing and Key Personnel Risks
The realisation of exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the discovery and successful development of
economic mineral reserves and is subject to a number of significant potential risks summarised as follows:
Commodity price fluctuations;
Foreign exchange risks;
Uncertainties over development and operational costs;
Political and legal risks, including arrangements with governments for licences, profit sharing and taxation;
Currency exchange fluctuations and restrictions;
Foreign investment risks including increases in taxes, royalties and renegotiation of contracts; and
Liquidity risks.
mining operations.
In addition to the above there can be no assurance that the current exploration program will result in profitable
The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the successful
discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the achievement of profitable operations, and the ability of the
Company to raise additional financing, if necessary, or alternatively upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its
interests on an advantageous basis. Changes in market conditions could require material write downs of the
carrying value of the Company’s assets.
Financial instrument risk
The Company and Group are exposed to risks arising from financial instruments held. These are discussed in Note
20 to the Annual Financial Statements.
Strategic risk
Significant and increasing competition exists for mineral acquisition opportunities throughout the world. As a result
of this competition, the Company may be unable to acquire rights to exploit additional attractive mining properties
on terms it considers acceptable. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will acquire any interest
in additional operations that would yield reserves or result in commercial mining operations. The Company expects
to undertake sufficient due diligence where warranted to help ensure opportunities are subjected to proper
evaluation.
Commercial risk
The mining industry is competitive and there is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of minerals are
discovered, a profitable market will exist for the sale of such minerals. There can be no assurance that the quality of
the minerals will be such that the Company properties can be mined at a profit. Factors beyond the control of the
Company may affect the marketability of any minerals discovered. Mineral prices are subject to volatile price
changes from a variety of factors including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation,
global and regional demand, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates and global or regional consumption
patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to improved mining and production methods.
Ultimately, the Company expects that prior to a development decision; a project could be the subject of a feasibility
analysis to ensure there exists an appropriate level of confidence in its economic viability.
Funding risk
In the past the Company has raised funds via equity contributions from new and existing shareholders, thereby
ensuring the Company remains a going concern until such time that revenues are earned through the sale or
development and mining of a mineral deposit. There can be no assurance that such funds will continue to be
available on reasonable terms, or at all in future. The Directors regularly review cash flow requirements to ensure
the Company can meet financial obligations as and when they fall due.
Recruiting and retaining qualified personnel is critical to the Company’s success. The number of persons skilled in
the acquisition, exploration and development of mining properties is limited and competition for such persons is
intense. While the Company has good relations with its employees, these relations may be impacted by changes in
the scheme of labour relations which may be introduced by the relevant governmental authorities. Adverse changes
in such legislation may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial
condition. Staff are encouraged to discuss with management, matters of interest to the employees and subjects
affecting day-to-day operations of the Company.
Speculative Nature of Mineral Exploration and Development
Development of the Company’s mineral exploration properties is, amongst others, contingent upon obtaining
satisfactory exploration results and securing additional adequate funding. Mineral exploration and development
involves substantial expenses and a high degree of risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and
careful evaluation may not be able to adequately mitigate. The degree of risk reduces substantially when a
Company’s properties move from the exploration phase to the development phase.
The discovery of mineral deposits is dependent upon a number of factors including the technical skill of the
exploration personnel involved. The commercial viability of a mineral deposit, once discovered, is also dependent
upon a number of factors, including the size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, metal prices and government
regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals,
and environmental protection. In addition, several years can elapse from the initial phase of drilling until
commercial operations are commenced.
Political Stability
The Company is conducting its activities in Tanzania. The Directors believe that the Government of Tanzania
supports the development of natural resources by foreign investors and actively monitor the situation. However,
there is no assurance that future political and economic conditions in Tanzania will not result in the Government of
Tanzania adopting different policies regarding foreign development and ownership of mineral resources. Any
changes in policy affecting ownership of assets, taxation, rates of exchange, environmental protection, labour
relations, repatriation of income and return of capital, may affect the Company’s ability to develop the projects.
Uninsurable Risks
The Company may become subject to liability for accidents, pollution and other hazards against which it cannot
insure or against which it may elect not to insure because of prohibitive premium costs or for other reasons, such as
amounts which exceed policy limits.
Results
The result for the year after providing for depreciation, impairments and taxation amounted to a profit of
£2,125,004 for the year ended (31 December 2013: loss £15,583,337).

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
KIBO MINING PLC
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
The Directors have reviewed budgets, projected cash flows and other relevant information, and on the basis of this
review, are confident that the Company and the Group will have adequate financial resources to continue in
operational existence for the foreseeable future. Additionally significant capital-raising subsequent to year end has
provided further cash resources in order to ensure prospecting activities are continued as planned without
interruption. For additional information of capital-raising subsequent to year end refer to material post balance
sheet events disclosed in Note 21 to the annual financial statements.
The future of the Company and the Group is dependent on the successful future outcome of its short and medium
term ability to raise new equity funding and the successful development of its exploration interests and of the
availability of further funding to bring these interests to production. The Directors consider that in preparing the
financial statements they have taken into account all information that could reasonably be expected to be available.
Consequently, they consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.
Environmental responsibility
The Company recognises that its activities require it to have regard to the potential impact that it, its subsidiaries
and partners may have on the environment. Where exploration and development works are carried out, care is
taken to limit the amount of disturbance and where any remediation works are required they are carried out as and
when required.
Dividends
There have been no dividends declared or paid during the current financial period (2013: £ nil).
Corporate Governance Policy
The Board is aware of the importance to conform to its statutory responsibilities and industry good practice in
relation to corporate governance of the Group.
The Board is accountable to the shareholders for delivery of sustained value growth. In order to support its duties
and responsibilities the Board implements control procedures that assess and manage risk and ensure robust
financial and operational management within the Company. The principal risks that the Company is exposed to can
be classified under the general headings of exploration risk, commodity risk, price risk, currency risk and political
risk.
The Board also sets the Company’s core values and ethical standards of business conduct ensuring these are
effectively communicated to all staff and are monitored continuously by the Board.
The Board sets the Company’s strategy and monitors its implementation through management and financial
performance reviews. It also works to ensure that adequate resources are available to implement strategy in a
timely manner.

business with discipline, integrity and social responsibility. The Board of Directors is firmly committed to promoting
Kibo Mining Plc’s adherence to the principles contained in the International Code of Good Corporate Practices. The
Code is constantly being reviewed and the Directors are implementing the Code in a phased manner. The Directors
are committed to the implementation of the principles and non-compliance is limited to the matter listed in this
report.

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement, the directors are responsible for the
preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. Our responsibility
is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International
Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s
26 May 2015
Ethical Standards for Auditors.
Scope of the audit of the financial statements
We have audited the Group and Company financial statements of Kibo Mining plc for the year ended 31 December
2014 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial
Position, Company Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company
Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, Company Statement of Cash Flows, Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies and the related notes on pages 30 to 49. The financial reporting framework that
has been applied in their preparations is Irish Law and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as
adopted by the European Union.
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Section 193 of the Companies
Act 1990. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we
are required to state to them in an Auditors' 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 and the company's members as a
body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors
An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give
reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or
error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Group and company's
circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant
accounting estimates made by the directors; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition, we
read all the financial and non-financial information in the Annual Report to identify material inconsistencies with
the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or
materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become
aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.
Opinion on financial statements
In our opinion:

the financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with the requirements of the
Emphasis of Matter – Realisation of Assets
Companies Acts 1963 to 2014 and all regulations to be construed as one with those acts.
In forming our opinion on the financial statements, which is not modified, we considered the adequacy of
disclosures made in Notes 10, 12 and 18 to the financial statements concerning the valuation of intangible assets,
and investments in Group undertakings. The realisation of intangible assets of £14,413,865 (2013: £9,718,509),
amounts due from Group undertakings of £26,047,465 (2013: £25,286,099) and investments in Group undertakings
of £1,700,000 (2013: £1,700,000 ) included in the Company Statement of Financial Position are dependent on the
discovery of economic reserves including the ability of the Group to raise sufficient finance to develop the projects.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
KIBO MINING PLC
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General Information
Taxation
Kibo Mining Plc (“the Company”) is a Company incorporated in Ireland. The Group financial statements consolidate
those of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”). The principal activities of the
Company and its subsidiaries are related to the exploration for and development of coal and other minerals in
Tanzania. The figures in the financial statements are presented in Sterling unless otherwise stated. This summary
forms part of the notes to the financial statements.
Statement of Compliance
As permitted by the European Union, the Group financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and their interpretations issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted by the EU (IFRS). The individual financial statements of the
Company (“Company financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act, 1963 to
2014 which permits a Company that publishes its Company and Group financial statements together, to take
advantage of the exemption in Section 148(8) of the Companies Act, 1963, from presenting to its members its
Company Income Statement and related notes that form part of the approved Company financial statements.
The IFRSs adopted by the EU as applied by the Company and the Group in the preparation of these financial
statements are those that were effective at 31 December 2014.
Statement of Accounting Policies
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated
financial statements.
Basis of Preparation
is exposed , or has rights, to variance return from its involvement with the investee; and
has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
The Group and Company financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis. The accounting policies have
been applied consistently by Group entities. The Group and Company financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis as explained on page 9.
Use of Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with EU IFRS requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and
various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis
of making judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources.
In particular, there are significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting
policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements in the following
areas:
Measurement of the recoverable amounts of intangible assets;
Recoverability of group loans in the parent Company: and
Utilisation of tax losses
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
The Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure results in the capitalisation of certain
intangible mineral resources which are identified through business combinations or equivalent acquisitions. This
policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, in
particular whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established based on the separately
identified mineral resources. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes
available. If, after having capitalised the intangible mineral resources under the policy, a judgement is made that
recovery of the intangible asset is unlikely, the relevant capitalised amount will be written off to the income
statement.
Recoverability of group loans in the parent Company
The realisation of amounts due from Group undertakings is dependent on the discovery of economic reserves
including the ability of the Group to raise sufficient finance to develop the projects in order to settle the group loan
balance receivable.
KIBO MInIng PLC AnnuAL RePORt And ACCOunts 2014 24

Assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets requires the Company to make significant estimates
related to expectations of future taxable income. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flows
from operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. To the extent that future cash flows and
taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realise the net deferred tax assets
recorded at the end of the reporting period could be impacted.
Revenue Recognition - Interest Revenue
Interest revenue is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest
rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of
the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Kibo Mining Plc and its subsidiaries for
the year ended 31 December 2014, over which the Company has control.
Control is achieved when the Company:
has the power over the investee;
The Company reassesses whether or not it controls and investee if facts are circumstance indicate the there are
changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
In assessing control, potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are taken into account.

Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies
adopted by the Group.

Intragroup balances and any unrealised gains or losses or income or expenses arising from intragroup transactions

The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The cost of the business
combination is measured as the aggregate of the fair values of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed and
equity instruments issued. Costs directly attributable to the business combination are expensed as incurred, except
the costs to issue debt which are amortised as part of the effective interest and costs to issue equity which are
included in equity.
The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities which meet the recognition conditions of IFRS
3 Business Combinations are recognised at their fair values at acquisition date.
Contingent liabilities are only included in the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree where there is a
present obligation at acquisition date.
Non-controlling interest arising from a business combination is measured either at their share of the fair value of
the assets and liabilities of the acquiree or at fair value. The treatment is not an accounting policy choice but is
selected for each individual business combination, and disclosed in the note for business combinations.
Changes in the Group’s interest in subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity
transactions.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising from the acquisition of a subsidiary represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the
Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary

recognised at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is initially measured at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less
any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets comprise the acquisition of rights to explore in relation to the Group’s exploration and evaluation
activities.
Office equipment-between 12.5% to 37.5% straight line;
Plant & machinery at 20% straight line;

appropriate at each Statement of Financial Position date.
The residual value and useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are reviewed annually and adjusted if
Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, the Group also tests intangible assets with an
indefinite useful life or intangible assets not yet available for use for impairment annually by comparing its carrying
amount with its recoverable amount. This impairment test is performed during the annual period and at the same
time every period.
Exploration & Evaluation Assets
On disposal of property, plant and equipment the cost and the related accumulated depreciation and impairments
are removed from the financial statements and the net amount, less any proceeds, is taken to the Statement of
Comprehensive Income.
Income Tax
Exploration and evaluation activity involves the search for mineral resources, the determination of technical
feasibility and the assessment of commercial viability of an identified resource. Exploration and evaluation activity
includes:
• researching and analysing historical exploration data;
• gathering exploration data through topographical, geochemical and geophysical studies;
• exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling;
• determining and examining the volume and grade of the resource;
• surveying transportation and infrastructure requirements; and
• conducting market and finance studies.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure is charged to the income statement as incurred except in the following
circumstances, in which case the expenditure may be capitalised:
enacted by the reporting date.
• In respect of minerals activities:
–
the exploration and evaluation activity is within an area of interest which was previously acquired as an
asset acquisition or in a business combination and measured at fair value on acquisition; or
the existence of a commercially viable mineral deposit has been established.
–
Capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure considered to be tangible is recorded as a component of
property, plant and equipment at cost less impairment charges. Otherwise, it is recorded as an intangible.
to pay the related dividend is recognised.
Foreign Currencies
Functional and presentation currency
Intangible assets all relate to exploration and evaluation expenditure which are carried at cost with an indefinite
useful life and therefore are reviewed for impairment annually and when there are indicators of impairment. Where
a potential impairment is indicated, assessment is performed for each area of interest in conjunction with the group
of operating assets (representing a cash generating unit) to which the exploration is attributed. Exploration areas at
which reserves have been discovered but require major capital expenditure before production can begin, are
continually evaluated to ensure that commercial quantities of reserves exist or to ensure that additional exploration
work is under way or planned.
Impairment
Assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the
asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair
value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest
levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the
carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is
recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income immediately.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost or valuation, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as

follows:
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the Income Statement
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively
enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation
purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of goodwill,
the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects
neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they
probably will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be
applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively
A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced
to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognised at the same time as the liability
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial
statements are presented in Sterling, which is the Group’s presentation currency. This is also the functional currency
of the Group and Company and is considered by the Board also to be appropriate for the purposes of preparing the
Group financial statements.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and
from the translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Group companies
The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary
economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the
presentation currency as follows:
Monetary assets and liabilities for each Statement of Financial Position presented are presented at the
closing rate at the date of that Statement of Financial Position. Non-monetary items are measured at the
exchange rate in effect at the historical transaction date and are not translated at each Statement of
Financial Position date;

recognised at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is initially measured at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less
any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets comprise the acquisition of rights to explore in relation to the Group’s exploration and evaluation
activities.
Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment.
Office equipment-between 12.5% to 37.5% straight line;
Plant & machinery at 20% straight line;
Furniture & fixtures at 12.5% straight line;
Motor vehicles at 25% straight line; and
I.T Equipment at 20% straight line
The residual value and useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are reviewed annually and adjusted if
appropriate at each Statement of Financial Position date.
Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, the Group also tests intangible assets with an
indefinite useful life or intangible assets not yet available for use for impairment annually by comparing its carrying
amount with its recoverable amount. This impairment test is performed during the annual period and at the same
On disposal of property, plant and equipment the cost and the related accumulated depreciation and impairments

time every period.
Exploration & Evaluation Assets
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the Income Statement
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively
enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation
purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of goodwill,
the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects
neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they
probably will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be
applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the reporting date.
A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced
to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognised at the same time as the liability
to pay the related dividend is recognised.
Foreign Currencies
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial
statements are presented in Sterling, which is the Group’s presentation currency. This is also the functional currency
of the Group and Company and is considered by the Board also to be appropriate for the purposes of preparing the
Group financial statements.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and
from the translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Group companies
The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary
economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the
presentation currency as follows:
Exploration and evaluation activity involves the search for mineral resources, the determination of technical
feasibility and the assessment of commercial viability of an identified resource. Exploration and evaluation activity
includes:
• researching and analysing historical exploration data;
• gathering exploration data through topographical, geochemical and geophysical studies;
• exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling;
• determining and examining the volume and grade of the resource;
• surveying transportation and infrastructure requirements; and
• conducting market and finance studies.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure is charged to the income statement as incurred except in the following
circumstances, in which case the expenditure may be capitalised:
• In respect of minerals activities:
–
–
the exploration and evaluation activity is within an area of interest which was previously acquired as an
asset acquisition or in a business combination and measured at fair value on acquisition; or
the existence of a commercially viable mineral deposit has been established.
Capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure considered to be tangible is recorded as a component of
property, plant and equipment at cost less impairment charges. Otherwise, it is recorded as an intangible.
Intangible assets all relate to exploration and evaluation expenditure which are carried at cost with an indefinite
useful life and therefore are reviewed for impairment annually and when there are indicators of impairment. Where
a potential impairment is indicated, assessment is performed for each area of interest in conjunction with the group
of operating assets (representing a cash generating unit) to which the exploration is attributed. Exploration areas at
which reserves have been discovered but require major capital expenditure before production can begin, are
continually evaluated to ensure that commercial quantities of reserves exist or to ensure that additional exploration
work is under way or planned.
Impairment
Assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the
asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair
value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest
levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the
carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is
recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income immediately.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost or valuation, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as
26
follows:
Monetary assets and liabilities for each Statement of Financial Position presented are presented at the
closing rate at the date of that Statement of Financial Position. Non-monetary items are measured at the
exchange rate in effect at the historical transaction date and are not translated at each Statement of
Financial Position date;

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
KIBO MINING PLC
ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this
average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction
dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transaction): and
All resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity. On consolidation,
exchange differences arising from the translation of monetary items receivable from foreign subsidiaries for
which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future are taken to shareholders
equity. When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are recognised in the income statement
as part of the gain or loss on sale.
Issue Expenses and Share Premium Account
Issue expenses are written off against the premium arising on the issue of share capital.
Earnings per Share
The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated
by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number
of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss
attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the
effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Financial Instruments
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents in the Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short term
deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form
part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of
the statement of cash flows.
Trade and other receivables / payables
Trade and other receivables and payables are stated at cost less impairment, which approximates fair value given
the short dated nature of these assets and liabilities.
Shareholder warrants
The shareholder warrants entitle shareholders to a number of common shares based upon the number of shares
they subscribed for at the date of issue of the warrant instrument. The warrants relate to a transaction with the
equity holders as opposed to a transaction in exchange for any goods or services. The equity component of the
instrument is not considered material and there is no liability component arising as a result of these warrants. Upon
exercise of the warrant the proceeds received, net of attributable transaction costs, are credited to share capital and
where appropriate share premium.
Share based payments
For such grants of share options, the fair value as at the date of grant is calculated using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The amount
recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of share options that are likely to vest, except
where forfeiture is only due to market based conditions not achieving the threshold for vesting.
Share Capital
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised directly in
equity.

Segment analysis
IFRS 8 requires an entity to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments, which are
operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specific criteria. Operating segments are
components of an entity about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the
chief operating decision maker. The Chief Executive Officer is the Chief Operating decision maker of the Group.
Management currently identifies two divisions as operating segments – mining and corporate. These operating
segments are monitored and strategic decisions are made based upon them together with other non-financial data
collated from exploration activities. Principal activities for these operating segments are as follows:

The effective tax rate used for the December 2014 and December 2013 reconciliations above is the corporate rate of
12.5% payable by corporate entities in Ireland on taxable profits under tax law in that jurisdiction.
No provision has been made for the 2014 deferred taxation as no taxable income has been received to date, and the
probability of future taxable income is indicative of current market conditions which remain uncertain. At the
Statement of Financial Position date, the Group had estimated unused tax losses of £13,067,784 (2013: £10,497,432
) available for offset against future profits which equates to an estimated potential deferred tax asset of £1,633,473
(2013: £1,312,179). No deferred tax asset has been recognised due to the unpredictability of the future profit
streams. Losses may be carried forward indefinitely in accordance with the applicable taxation regulations ruling
within each of the above jurisdictions.

As permitted by Section 148(8) of the Companies Act 1963, the statement of comprehensive income of the parent

Intangible assets
Intangible assets consist solely of separately identifiable prospecting assets identified through business
combinations, where these separately identifiable intangible assets will be recognised at fair value on acquisition
date of said subsidiary.

Intangible assets are not amortised, due to the indefinite useful life which is attached to the underlying prospecting
rights, until such time that active mining operations commence, which will result in the intangible asset being
amortised over the useful life of the relevant mining licences.
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are assessed for indications of impairment on an annual basis and also
when there is an indication of impairment, against the prospective fair value of the intangible asset. The valuation of
intangible assets with an indefinite useful life is reassessed on an annual basis through valuation techniques
applicable to the nature of the intangible assets.
In assessing whether a write-down is required in the carrying value of a potentially impaired intangible asset, the
asset’s carrying value is compared with its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s
fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The valuation techniques applicable to the valuation of the
abovementioned intangible assets comprise a combination of fair market values, discounted cash flow projections
and historic transaction prices.
The following key assumptions influence the measurement of the intangible assets recoverable amounts, through
utilising the value is use method in order to determine the recoverable amount:
Comparable market value of similar mineral statements;
Currency fluctuations and exchange movements;
Expected growth rates;
Cost of capital related to funding requirements;
Applicable discounts rates;
Future operating expenditure for extraction and mining of measured mineral resources; and
Co-operation of key project partners going forward.
Through review of the project specific financial, operational, market and economic indicators applicable to the
above intangible assets, impairment indicators were identified which required impairment of the intangible assets
and reversal of impairments recognised in respect of selective exploration projects.
Reversal of impairment
Rukwa Coal Project
The commencement of Stage 1, Phase 1 (Concept Study Report) of the Rukwa DMFS was announced in July 2014
with the appointment of South African consulting group Minxcon Projects (Minxcon) of South Africa to carry out the
study. Based on the study, management has re-assessed the related intangible asset which indicated a reversal of
impairment amounting to £8,153,865.
KIBO MInIng PLC AnnuAL RePORt And ACCOunts 2014 36
36
The following key assumptions influence the measurement of the intangible assets recoverable amounts, through
utilising the value is use method in order to determine the recoverable amount:
NPV of £12 million at 15-20% discount rate.
Rukwa has an all – in cost margin of between 38% and 45% that is high compared to other coal mines.
A capital investment of between USD46 million and USD89 million is required to fund the operation subject to
the option investigated.
The life of the project is estimated to be 27 years based on the most feasible model.
The information utilised for valuation of the project was based on independent Competent Persons Reports
prepared specifically for the project by independent organisations to the Group.
The payback period for the Project is between 3.9 and 4.7 years.
The previous impairment performed was based on resource estimations and not on the net present value
determination as these became available from the latest Competent Persons Reports prepared during the
Impairment
current financial period.
Haneti Project
Due to the continued focus on the advanced coal and gold developments and resulting delay in the field exploration
work related to the Haneti project, management has for financial reporting purposes reassessed the value in use of
the Haneti project in line with the requirements of the financial reporting framework. The result indicated a
downward adjustment in order to reflect the current resource listings, not taking into account the prospective value
management attaches to the Haneti. Based on the latest management assessment of the related intangible asset
indicated an impairment amounting to £3,028,509.
Pinewood Project
Due to the continued focus on the advanced coal and gold developments and resulting delay in the field exploration
work related to the Pinewood project, management has relinquished a number of the uranium and coal licences in
the prior and current period in order to focus on the most favourable areas. For financial reporting purposes
management has reassessed the value in use of the Pinewood project in line with the requirements of the financial
reporting framework. The result indicated a downward adjustment as the value in use indicators suggest there to be
limited value encased within the Pinewood project as it currently stands. Based on the latest management
assessment of the related intangible asset indicated an impairment amounting to £430,000.

Impairment
The following key assumptions influence the measurement of the intangible assets recoverable amounts, through
utilising the value is use method in order to determine the recoverable amount:
NPV of £12 million at 15-20% discount rate.
Rukwa has an all – in cost margin of between 38% and 45% that is high compared to other coal mines.
A capital investment of between USD46 million and USD89 million is required to fund the operation subject to
the option investigated.
The life of the project is estimated to be 27 years based on the most feasible model.
The information utilised for valuation of the project was based on independent Competent Persons Reports
prepared specifically for the project by independent organisations to the Group.
The payback period for the Project is between 3.9 and 4.7 years.
The previous impairment performed was based on resource estimations and not on the net present value
determination as these became available from the latest Competent Persons Reports prepared during the
current financial period.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets consist solely of separately identifiable prospecting assets identified through business
combinations, where these separately identifiable intangible assets will be recognised at fair value on acquisition
date of said subsidiary.

Intangible assets are not amortised, due to the indefinite useful life which is attached to the underlying prospecting
rights, until such time that active mining operations commence, which will result in the intangible asset being
amortised over the useful life of the relevant mining licences.
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are assessed for indications of impairment on an annual basis and also
when there is an indication of impairment, against the prospective fair value of the intangible asset. The valuation of
intangible assets with an indefinite useful life is reassessed on an annual basis through valuation techniques
applicable to the nature of the intangible assets.
In assessing whether a write-down is required in the carrying value of a potentially impaired intangible asset, the
asset’s carrying value is compared with its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s
fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The valuation techniques applicable to the valuation of the
abovementioned intangible assets comprise a combination of fair market values, discounted cash flow projections
and historic transaction prices.
The following key assumptions influence the measurement of the intangible assets recoverable amounts, through
utilising the value is use method in order to determine the recoverable amount:
Comparable market value of similar mineral statements;
Currency fluctuations and exchange movements;
Expected growth rates;
Cost of capital related to funding requirements;
Applicable discounts rates;
Future operating expenditure for extraction and mining of measured mineral resources; and
Co-operation of key project partners going forward.
Through review of the project specific financial, operational, market and economic indicators applicable to the
above intangible assets, impairment indicators were identified which required impairment of the intangible assets
and reversal of impairments recognised in respect of selective exploration projects.
Reversal of impairment
Rukwa Coal Project
The commencement of Stage 1, Phase 1 (Concept Study Report) of the Rukwa DMFS was announced in July 2014
with the appointment of South African consulting group Minxcon Projects (Minxcon) of South Africa to carry out the
study. Based on the study, management has re-assessed the related intangible asset which indicated a reversal of
impairment amounting to £8,153,865.

Haneti Project
Due to the continued focus on the advanced coal and gold developments and resulting delay in the field exploration
work related to the Haneti project, management has for financial reporting purposes reassessed the value in use of
the Haneti project in line with the requirements of the financial reporting framework. The result indicated a
downward adjustment in order to reflect the current resource listings, not taking into account the prospective value
management attaches to the Haneti. Based on the latest management assessment of the related intangible asset
indicated an impairment amounting to £3,028,509.
Pinewood Project
Due to the continued focus on the advanced coal and gold developments and resulting delay in the field exploration

Foreign currency risk
The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies and exposures to exchange rate
fluctuations therefore arise. Exchange rate exposures are managed by continuously reviewing exchange rate
movements in the relevant foreign currencies. The exposure to exchange rate fluctuations is limited as the
Company’s subsidiaries operate mainly with Sterling, Euros, South African Rands, US Dollar and Tanzanian Shillings.
At the period ended 31 December 2014, the Group had no outstanding forward exchange contracts.
Exchange rates used for conversion of foreign subsidiaries undertakings were:

The executive management of the Group monitor the Group's exposure to the concentration of fair value estimation
risk on a monthly basis.
Group Sensitivity Analysis:
If the GBP:EURO/ EURO:USD exchange rate was to increase/decrease by 10%, the effect on foreign currency
translation would be £2.3 million and
Credit risk
£0.46 million respectively.
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss
to the Group. As the Group does not, as yet, have any sales to third parties, this risk is limited.
The Group and Company’s financial assets comprise receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The credit risk on
cash and cash equivalents is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by
international credit rating agencies. The Group and Company’s exposure to credit risk arise from default of its
counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents in its
consolidated statement of financial position.
The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Group of
counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if
they are connected or related entities.
Financial assets exposed to credit risk at period end were as follows:

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which has built an
appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group and Company’s short, medium
and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining
adequate reserves and by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity
profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Cash forecasts are regularly produced to identify the liquidity
requirements of the Group. To date, the Group has relied on shareholder funding to finance its operations. The
Group had no external borrowing facilities at 31 December 2014.

movements in the relevant foreign currencies. The exposure to exchange rate fluctuations is limited as the

Group Sensitivity Analysis:
The main risks arising from the Group and Company’s financial instruments are foreign currency risk, credit risk,
liquidity risk, interest rate risk and capital risk. Management reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these
If the GBP:EURO/ EURO:USD exchange rate was to increase/decrease by 10%, the effect on foreign currency
translation would be £2.3 million and
Credit risk
£0.46 million respectively.
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss
to the Group. As the Group does not, as yet, have any sales to third parties, this risk is limited.
The Group and Company’s financial assets comprise receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The credit risk on
cash and cash equivalents is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by
international credit rating agencies. The Group and Company’s exposure to credit risk arise from default of its
counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents in its
consolidated statement of financial position.
The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Group of
counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if
they are connected or related entities.
Financial assets exposed to credit risk at period end were as follows:

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which has built an
appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group and Company’s short, medium
and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining
adequate reserves and by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity
profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Cash forecasts are regularly produced to identify the liquidity
requirements of the Group. To date, the Group has relied on shareholder funding to finance its operations. The
Group had no external borrowing facilities at 31 December 2014.

The Group and Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group
and Company’s holdings of cash and short term deposits.
It is the Group and Company’s policy as part of its management of the budgetary process to place surplus funds on
short term deposit in order to maximise interest earned.
Group Sensitivity Analysis:
A total of 10,000,000 share warrants were granted to Metal Tiger plc in relation to the “Pinewood Joint-Venture”
which was subsequently exercised and converted to shares at £0.03 on 21 January 2015.
22. Going concern
Currently no significant impact exists due to possible interest rate changes on the company’s interest bearing
instruments.
Capital risk management
The Group’s financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting policies applicable to a going
concern. This basis presumes that funds will be available to finance future operations and that the realisation of
assets and settlement of liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments will occur in the ordinary course of
business.
23. Commitments and Contingencies
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while
maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.
The Group does not have identifiable material contingencies or commitments as at the reporting date (2013: nil). Any
contingent rental is expensed in the period in which it is incurred.
Subsequent to year end, the Company has executed the following share placing’s:
