RNS Number : 8090H Peninsular Gold Limited 01 March 2010 Peninsular Gold Limited ('Peninsular Gold' or the 'Company' or the 'Group') (AIM: PGL) Interim results (unaudited) for the six month period to 31st December 2009 Overview · Peninsular Gold announces maiden profit following first gold pour at Raub in February 2009;
· Peninsular Gold remains unhedged thus maintaining robust margins with cash operating costs of approximately $400 per ounce;
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT Dear Shareholders, The last six months have seen steady development and have brought an improvement to our financial results. I am therefore pleased to report to you that for the six months from 1 July to 31 December 2009 the Group's financial results have improved, recording a net profit of £229,254 compared to a loss of £671,699 for the period 1 July 2008 to 31 December 2008. Gold production at the Raub project in the 11 months to 31 January 2010, since the first gold pour in February 2009, was 14,459 ounces and for the six months to 31 December 2009 was 8,060 ounces. The Raub carbon-in-leach plant ('Plant') is performing well and has achieved gold recovery levels from the tailings of over 83%. This period since the first pour has been one of further commissioning and operational tuning of the Plant. We still remain a relatively low cost producer with a cash operating cost of approximately US$400 per ounce. Strategy and Outlook The initial plan with the 1.1 million tonnes per annum ('mtpa') plant was to produce an average of 25,000 ounces of gold per annum from tailings over the life of the tailings resources. We have revised our strategy with the aim of significantly increasing gold production by the upgrading of the Raub plant and have secured financing facilities to fund the necessary work. The upgraded plant will have a crushing and milling circuit to enable the processing of up to 2mtpa, including higher grade material as well as tailings, and will be capable of producing up to 100,000 ounces of gold per annum. With the plant upgrade, we should see improved production levels during 2011. The Company intends to identify further resources of at least 1 million to 2 million ounces of gold at Raub, both from the envelope of the previous underground workings and from the vertical extension of the high grade zones recently identified in the shallow oxide ore. The first phase of the exploration program shall include reverse circulation and diamond drilling with a focus on the vertical extension, to a depth of 150m, of the veins that form the current JORC compliant oxide resource of 218,000 ounces Au. Further exploration work will also target the deeper main lode, which has been known historically to produce over 10g/t of gold. Our team is being strengthened overall as we move to bring in-house more of the operational management of the plant and to fulfill the commitment to transfer new skills and know-how to the local workforce, managers and engineers. Over the coming months our main focus will be on developing the Raub project on both the plant and exploration fronts and I look forward to updating the market as we progress.

The Bank Loan provided to RAGM has increased from £11.1 million (Malaysian Ringgit 65.1 million), as reported in the audited accounts on 30th June 2009 to £14.9 million (Malaysian Ringgit 81.7 million) as of 31st December 2009, with the additional financing provided for the expansion of the Carbon In Leach plant and other infrastructure works in relation to the gold mining business in Raub, Pahang. The loans are secured by way of a debenture over all the assets and undertakings of Raub Australian Gold Mining Sdn. Bhd., a third party charge over a property owned by a company under common control and a corporate guarantee provided by the Parent Company.
The existing loans of £11.1 million (Malaysian Ringgit 65.1 million) are repayable in 60 installments commencing from 28th February 2009 whereas the new loans are repayable in 48 installments commencing only upon completion of the entire loan drawdown, as drawdown progresses in line with the plant expansion work over years 2009 and 2010 and beyond. The Group's bank loans are subject to interest rates of 2 % to 4% per annum above the base lender's base lending rate, currently 5.95%. In December 2009, the Company entered into convertible loan agreements of US$1.5 million for purposes of working capital and repayment of existing debts. Interest for the loans is at 10% per annum. The said loans are repayable in full 3 months from the date of drawdown and are convertible in whole or in part into new ordinary shares of no par value in the capital of the Company at a price of 50p per share. The said loans are secured on a corporate guarantee from S.E.R.E.M Malaysia Sdn Bhd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Peninsular Gold Ltd.

In accordance with the share subscription agreement, preference dividends should be accrued from the date of issuance to the conversion date or the redemption date. The accumulated amount of preference dividends has now amounted to £345,600 since the issue of the said shares at £0.50 per share on 27th May 2005, as indicated in the trade and other payables. A prior period adjustment has arisen for inclusion of the said accrued preference dividends at 30th June, 2008, amounting to £230,400. The accumulated dividends are from date of issue up to 30th June 2008, to be adjusted into the losses for year ended 30th June 2008 and trade and other payables. 11. Earnings per share The calculation of earnings / (loss) per share is based on the earnings / (loss) for the period after taxation and on the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period as below:-

The redeemable preference shares are non-dilutive. 12. Segmental information Currently all revenues, profits and losses before tax and the carrying value of assets and liabilities arise from the production and sale of gold dor?ars and activities related to the upgrade of the carbon-in-leach plant and gold mining and exploration activity within Malaysia. IFRS 8 has replaced IAS 14 'Segmental Reporting.' It requires a 'management approach' under which segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. This has not resulted in a change to our reportable segments as these are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker.

You man of little faith. Luckily I have a skin like a rhinocerous, but note the fuller wording of my post on 13 Jan: " My trades should be announced on a very broad basis - when I sell a stock always rises. Thankfully, the opposite action buying a stock doesn't normally apply." Rest assured, in the spirit of full cooperation, I will let the B know if I do decide to get back in. That said, whilst impressed by PGL performance of late, the case for gold is a little less compelling of late. |
