Interim Results

 

Mila Resources Plc, a London listed natural resources company, is pleased to present its interim results for the six-month period ended 31 December 2020.

 

Highlights:

 

Towards the period end Mila entered into non-binding Heads of Terms with regard to the possible acquisition of 100% of the share capital of New Generation Minerals Limited ("NGM'); to be satisfied by the issue of New Ordinary Shares of the Company. NGM is a UK private company, whose principal asset is the Kathleen Valley gold project ("Project") in Western Australia. The Project is located in the prolific Wiluna-Norseman gold belt which hosts several world-class mines owned by a number of premier Australian gold companies including Northern Star and St Barbara. Since the initial Heads of Terms announcement, the structure of the proposed transaction has been simplified to the acquisition of NGM's gold project in Western Australia "Kathleen Valley". The nature of the deal will be an earn in process based on success milestones.

 

Cash balance at the end of the period £212,811.

 

In March 2021, the Company announced that it had raised £350,000 through the issue of Convertible Loan Notes ("CLN") with supportive shareholders.

 

 

Chairman Statement

 

I am pleased to present the interim financial statements to shareholders for the six months ended 31 December 2020.

 

The period under review was dominated by searching for a suitable reverse takeover candidate, culminating in the identification of New Generation Minerals Limited ("NGM'). Since the initial announcement the deal has been simplified to the acquisition of NGM's interest in the the Kathleen Valley Gold Project in Western Australia. The acquisition will be an earn in process based on success milestones. The Kathleen Valley Gold Project is a very exciting gold project and we believe the project will enable us to achieve the ambitions we have for Mila.

 

The current pandemic, although devastating to businesses globally, has not interrupted our plans to undertake a re-listing of the enlarged entity and the Company and its professional advisers are continuing with due diligence and preparing the documentation for the re-listing. Clearly, we will need to assess market conditions prior to raising any capital but it is very much our current intention to complete the transaction relatively shortly. The prospectus is advancing through the FCA and we will notify shareholders upon its release.

 

I look forward to reporting our progress to you over the coming the weeks.

MILA RESOURCES PLC

Notes to the financial statements

For the six months ended 31 December 2020

 

General information

Mila Resources Plc (the "Company'') looks to identify potential companies, businesses or asset(s) that have operations in the natural resources exploration, development and production sector.

The Company is domiciled in the United Kingdom and incorporated and registered in England and Wales, with registration number 09620350.

The Company's registered office is Lockstrood Farm, Ditchling Common, Burgess Hill, West Sussex RH15 0SJ.

Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.

Basis of preparation

The interim unaudited financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2020 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. This interim financial information is not the Company's statutory financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and have been delivered to the Registrars of Companies.  The auditors have reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified, did not include references to any matters which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis of matter without qualifying their report and did not contain statements under section 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The interim financial information for the six months ended 31 December 2020 is unaudited. In the opinion of the Directors, the interim consolidated financial information presents fairly the financial position, and results from operations and cash flows for the period.

The Directors have made an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and are satisfied that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Company, therefore, continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its consolidated financial statements.

The financial information of the Company is presented in British Pounds Sterling (£).

Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of interim financial information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions, the resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal related actual results.

In preparing the interim financial information, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Company's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020.

Income tax expense

No tax is applicable to the Company for the six months ended 31 December 2020. No deferred income tax asset has been recognised in respect of the losses carried forward, due to the uncertainty as to whether the Company will generate sufficient future profits in the foreseeable future to prudently justify this.

Notes to the financial statements

For the six months ended 31 December 2020

 

Loss per share

Basic loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

There are currently no dilutive potential ordinary shares.
