Interim Results

Pembridge Resources plc (LON: PERE), the mining focused company listed on the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and the main market for listed securities of London Stock Exchange plc, is pleased to announce its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2018.

Highlights:

-- Signed a Sales and Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") on 14 February 2018 to acquire Minto Explorations Ltd ("Minto") from Capstone Mining Corporation ("Capstone") (the "Minto Acqusition"). Minto is a producing copper-gold-silver mine located in Yukon, Northern Canada. Since signing the SPA work has been ongoing to finalise the transaction, including completion of the legal process.

-- Upon successful closure of the Minto Acquisition, the Company's strategy will be to seek other opportunities in copper and base metals mining. Focus regions will be the Americas, Australia, Europe and sub-Saharan Africa.

David Linsley, CEO said:

"Minto is located in the mining friendly Yukon territory in Canada and has a 10-year production history with all key infrastructure, facilities and operating teams in place. Minto fits perfectly with our stated goal to acquire a producing and profitable mining operation to which our team can add further value. This acquisition will represent a core asset to Pembridge and will be used as a platform for future growth."

Chairman's statement

I am pleased to present the condensed interim financial statements for Pembridge Resources plc's results for the half year ended 30 June 2018. On 14 February 2018 the Company signed the SPA to acquire Minto from Capstone. Minto is a producing copper-gold-silver mine located in Yukon, Northern Canada. Since signing the SPA, work has been ongoing to finalise the transaction, including completion of the legal process.

During the period, the Company made a loss of US$2.20 million. The losses during the period are costs associated with the Minto Acquisition (including legal and professional fees, travel, and consultancy), together with costs incurred in managing the head office in the United Kingdom.

As at 30 June 2018, the Company had US$0.12 million in cash reserves.

These condensed interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 do not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.

   2.       Basis of preparation 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared In accordance with Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the FCA, using the recognition and measurement principles of International Accounting Standards, International Reporting Standards and Interpretations adopted for use in the European Union (collectively EU IFRSs). The Company has not complied with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". The principal accounting policies used in preparing the condensed interim financial statements are unchanged from those disclosed in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2017 and are expected to be consistent with those policies that will be in effect at the year end.

The condensed interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 and 30 June 2017 are un-reviewed a nd unaudited. The comparative financial information does not constitute statutory financial statements within the meaning of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 were approved by the Board of Directors on 27 April 2018 and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts was unmodified, but did include an emphasis of matter relating to going concern. The audit report did not contain a statement under section 498(2)--(3) of the Companies Act 2006.

Going concern

The Company raises finance for its activities in discrete tranches. The Company has not generated revenues from operations. As such, the Company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern assumption will depend upon a number of matters including future successful capital raisings for necessary funding or loans from third parties.

The Directors consider that adequate resources exist for the Company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and that, therefore, it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the condensed interim financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2018.

Risks and uncertainties

The key risks that could affect the Company in the medium term and the factors that mitigate those risks have not substantially changed from those set out in the Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017.

Segment reporting

In the opinion of the Directors that the operations of the Company currently represent one segment, and are treated as such, when evaluating its performance. The chief operating decision maker is the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors reviews management accounts prepared for the Company when assessing performance.

3. EARNINGS per share

The calculation of the earning per share is based on the loss attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period. The basic and diluted loss per share are the same as the effect of the exercise of share warrants and options would be anti--dilutive.
