REABOLD RESOURCES PLC
("Reabold Resources" or "the Company")
Audited Annual Report and Financial Statements
For the year ended 31 December 2015
The Board of Reabold Resrouces is pleased to announce the
Company's audited annual report and financial statements for the
year ended 31 December 2015 ("the Accounts").
The Accounts are being posted to shareholders and will shortly
be available from the Company's website www.reabold.com and
extracts of the Accounts are set out below.
Chairman's statement and the Strategic report
The Board has continued to be active in the identification and
evaluation of investment opportunities in various sectors towards
the objective of an acquisition that drives creation of value for
stakeholders.
Placements
The Company announced on 18 September 2015 the placement by the
Company of 40,000,000 new Ordinary Shares of 0.1p each in the
Company at a price of 0.5p per share, raising GBP200,000 for
working capital purposes.
On 8 January 2016, the Company announced an additional placement
of 40,000,000 new Ordinary shares of 0.1p each at a price of 0.5p
per share, raising GBP200,000 for working capital purposes.
The Board is delighted to have the support of these two new
strategic investors gained through these placements
Mogul Ventures Corp. Investment
The Company holds 5 million shares in Mogul Ventures Corp.
("Mogul"), a private company focused on natural resources in
Mongolia, principally in tin. Reabold's holding in Mogul amounts to
a 4.2% undiluted, and 4.1% fully diluted interest. On 20 February
2015, Mogul entered into an amended and restated arrangement
agreement ("the Arrangement Agreement") with Knowlton Capital Inc.
("Knowlton"), a TSX-V listed company, for the acquisition by
Knowlton of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Mogul. The
Arrangement Agreement superseded a letter of intent dated 23 May
2014 and a definitive agreement dated 22 August 2014. The
Arrangement Agreement constituted a reverse takeover of Knowlton,
the completion of which was subject to a number of conditions,
including approval by the TSX-V, Knowlton's shareholders and
Mogul's shareholders. On 29 April 2016, Knowlton announced the
termination of the Arrangement Agreement with Mogul to pursue
another reverse take-over transaction.
In November 2015, Mogul issued a convertible debenture in the
amount of CAD $200k with a term of 1 year, an annual coupon of 3%
and convertible to Mogul equity at CAD $0.25 per share.
In Q4 2015, Mogul conducted a drilling program to collect
samples for metallurgical test work at Mogul's Oortsog Ovoo
tin-polymetallic project, which is expected to be completed by the
end of Q2 2016. Mogul believes the program will be important in
significantly de-risking the project and securing funding towards
its development. Notwithstanding the termination of the transaction
with Knowlton, the management and key stakeholders in Mogul remain
positive towards Mogul's future in the public markets under
improved market conditions.
Financial Risk Management
The Company's continuing operations expose it to foreign
currency, credit and liquidity risks. The Company was exposed to
price risk during the year on its investment in unlisted shares.
The Board's strategy in managing the market price risk inherent in
the Company's equity investment is determined by the requirement to
meet the Company's investment objective. The directors manage these
risks by regular reviews of the investment within the context of
current market conditions. The size of the Company means that it is
unnecessary and impractical for the Directors to delegate the
responsibility of monitoring financial risk management to a
sub-committee of the Board.
Financial Review
The loss of the Company for the 12 months ended 31 December 2015
was GBP104,000 (2014: loss of GBP118,000), in line with
expectations.
The net assets as at 31 December 2015 were GBP624,000 (2014:
GBP424,000). As at 31 December 2015, the Company had cash of
GBP481,000.
Outlook
Having successfully raised further capital and the added support
from two new strategic shareholders, the Board is moving forward
positively to drive shareholder value through the investment
strategy. Whilst the Board believes there are positive cyclical
investment opportunities in resources stocks, they may be subject
to significant volatility in financial markets and commodity
prices, as well as other potential risk areas, including
operational, geological, environmental, sovereign issues and access
to capital. The Board will evaluate investment opportunities in
other sectors as they arise. The Board is positive towards the
outlook for quality investment opportunities.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of accounting
The 2015 financial statements are prepared under International
Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted for use by the European
Union.
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern
basis and historical cost basis, except that the following assets
and liabilities are stated at their fair value: financial
instruments classified as fair value through the profit and
loss.
The financial statements are presented in sterling, the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates
and in which the majority of the Company's transactions are
denominated.
The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern
basis. The Directors expect to be able to be able to obtain further
funding for the Company. However, there can be no guarantee that
the required funds will be raised within the necessary timeframe or
on terms that will be acceptable to the Company.
Investments at fair value through profit or loss
Classification
The Company classifies its investments as financial assets at
fair value through profit or loss ("financial assets"). The
financial assets are designated by the Company at fair value
through profit or loss at inception. At the year end the Company
did not class any investments as financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss.
Recognition
Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on the trade
date - the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell
the investments.
Measurement
Financial assets at fair value are initially recognised at cost,
being the fair value of consideration given. Subsequent to initial
recognition, all financial assets at fair value through profit or
loss are measured at fair value. Gains and losses arising from
changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value'
category are presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in
the period in which they arise.
Fair value estimation
Marketable (Listed) Securities - Where an active market exists
for the security, the value is stated at the bid price on the last
trading day in the period. Marketability discounts are not applied
unless there is some contractual, governmental or other legally
enforceable restriction preventing realisation at the reporting
date.
Unlisted Investments - Where the Company has investments in
equity instruments that do not have a quoted price in an active
market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured these are
carried at historic cost.
Fair value hierarchy
IFRS 13 requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level
of the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 - inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
markets for identical assets and liabilities that the entity can
readily observe;
Level 2 - inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included
within Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly
or indirectly; and
Level 3 - inputs that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs).
2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Investments available for sale
Available for sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are
either designated as available for sale or are not classified as
loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss.
The company has an investment in unlisted shares that are not
traded in an active market but that are classified as available for
sale financial and stated at fair value (because the directors
consider that fair value can be reliably measured). Fair value is
determined in the manner described in note 5. Gains and losses
arising from changes in fair value are recognised in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in the investments revaluation
reserve with the exception of impairment losses, interest
calculated using the effective interest method and foreign exchange
gains and losses on monetary assets, which are recognised directly
in profit or loss. Where the investment is disposed of or is
determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously
recognised in the investments revaluation reserve is reclassified
to profit or loss.
Available for sale equity investments that do not have a quoted
market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be
reliably measured are measured at cost less any identified
impairment losses at the end of each reporting period.
Taxation
The tax charge represents the sum of current and deferred
tax.
Current tax payable is based on taxable profits for the year.
Taxable profits differ from net profits as reported in the income
statement because it excludes items that are taxable or deductible
in other years and items that are not taxable or deductible. The
Company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates
that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance
sheet date.
Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in
the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the
liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all
temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the
extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available
against which temporary differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each
balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer
probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow
all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets are
offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current
tax assets against current liabilities and when deferred tax assets
and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the
same tax authority on either the same taxable entity or different
taxable entity where there is an intention to settle on a net
basis.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to
apply in the period when the liability or the asset is
realised.
Borrowing costs
Unless borrowing costs are capitalised that are directly
attributable to the acquisition construction or production of a
qualifying asset, borrowing costs are expensed in the period they
are incurred. No borrowing costs were capitalised in the year
(2014: Nil).
Currencies
Transactions in currencies other than Sterling are recorded at
the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions.
Monetary items in the statement of financial position are
retranslated at the closing exchange rate at each statement of
financial position date, and the resulting translation differences
are recorded in profit or loss.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amount
of its tangible and intangible assets including investments to
determine whether there is any indication that those assets have
suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the
recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine
the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not
possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset,
the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating
unit to which the asset belongs.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Impairment (continued)
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less
than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is recognised as an
expense.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying
amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its
recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does
not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had
no impairment loss been recognised for the asset. A reversal of an
impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the
Company's statements of financial position when the Company has
become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Loans and other receivables
Loans and other receivables are recognised initially at fair
value and subsequently measured at amortised costs using the
effective interest rate method, as reduced by appropriate
provisions for estimated irrecoverable amounts less provision for
impairment. A provision for impairment is accounted for when
management deems the specific trade receivable balance not to be
collectable. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the
income statement
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand
deposits, and other short-term deposits and liquid investments that
are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject
to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially
measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest
expense recognised on the expected yield basis. The effective
interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a
financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the
relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that
exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expect
life of the expected financial liability, or, where appropriate, a
shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial
recognition.
Financial liabilities and equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified
according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered
into. An equity instrument is any contract that creates a residual
interest in the assets of the Company.
Trade payables
Trade payables are stated at their amortised cost less any
discount or rebate received.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Dividends
Dividend distribution to the Company's shareholders is
recognised as a liability in the Company's financial statements in
the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company's
shareholders.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the
proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Capital redemption reserve
Where a company acquires its own shares out of free reserves,
then a sum equivalent to the nominal value is transferred to a
capital redemption reserve.
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation
uncertainty
The Directors consider the critical accounting estimates and
judgements used in the financial statements and concluded that the
main areas of judgement are:
The preparation of the financial statements requires management
to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the
application of policies and reported amounts of assets and
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. Actual results may differ from these
estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an
ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in
the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects
only that period or in the period of the revision and future
periods if the revision affects both current and future
periods.
The following are the critical accounting judgements, apart from
those involving estimations (which are dealt with separately
below), that the directors have made in the process of applying the
Company's accounting policies and that have the most significant
effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
(a) Critical judgements in applying the Company's accounting
policy
In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies
which are described above, management has not had to make any
further significant judgements on the amounts recognised in the
financial statements.
(b) Key sources of estimation uncertainty
As the Company is now an investing company, the key source of
estimation uncertainty is the valuation of unlisted
investments.
3. Segment analysis
The segmental analysis relates to the operations of the Company,
as these are individual financial statements of the Company. The
Company has one reportable operating segment on the basis that it
earns revenues and incurs expenses from one business activity;
being investing, and on the basis that it operates in one
geographical location; being the United Kingdom. During the current
year, the Company did not generate any turnover from its investment
activities, as no acquisition was completed during the reporting
period.

Details of the additions can be found in the Chairman's

prior period was that the fair value of this investment could not
be reliably measured given the early stage of development of the
entity. The fair value can now be determined with reference to
subsequent issue prices of convertible debentures by the company
the investment is in. This classifies the asset at Level 2 of the
fair value hierarchy.

GBP325,000 for 65,000,000 new Ordinary Shares of 0.1p each in the

new Ordinary Shares.

for the payment of a creditor of the Company in the amount of
GBP7,260, on an interest free basis. As at 31 December 2015 the
amount of GBP7,260 was payable to Saltwind. The fair value of this
loan is not materially different from the face value.
The directors are the key management of the Company (refer to
note 7).
19. Financial risk management
The Company's operations expose it to a limited level of credit,
foreign currency and liquidity risk. There is little financial risk
arising from the effects of changes in market prices of commodities
based on its current activities. Interest rate risk exists on bank
and third party borrowings.
The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to
manage interest rate costs, and no hedge accounting is thus
applied. Given the size of the Company, the Directors have not
delegated the responsibility of monitoring financial risk
management to a sub-committee of the Board.
Price risk
Price risk arises from uncertainty about the future prices of
financial instruments held within the Company's portfolio. It
represents the potential loss that the Company might suffer through
holding market positions in the face of market movements. The
investments in equity and fixed interest stocks of unquoted
companies are not traded and as such the prices are more uncertain
than those of more widely traded securities. The Board's strategy
in managing the market price risk inherent in the Company's
portfolio of equity investments is determined by the requirement to
meet the Company's investment objective. The directors manage these
risks by regular reviews of the portfolio within the context of
current market conditions. Unquoted investments are valued as per
accounting policy in these financial statements. Regular reviews of
the financial results, combined with close contact with the
management of these investments, provide sufficient information to
support these valuations.
Liquidity risk
The Company actively maintains a treasury system that maintains
a net credit position and is designed to ensure the Company have
sufficient available funds for operations and planned
expansions.
19. Financial risk management (continued)
Maturity of financial liabilities
The following table shows details the Company's remaining
contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities.
The maturity of the financial liabilities table has been drawn up
based on the undisclosed cash flows based on the earliest date on
which the Company can be required to pay.
2015 2014
GBP'000 GBP'000
Within one year 58 70
Interest rate risk
The Company's exposure to changes in interest rate risk relates
primarily to interest-earning financial assets and interest-bearing
financial liabilities. Interest rate risk is managed by the Company
on an ongoing basis with the primary objective of limiting the
extent to which net interest expense could be affected by an
adverse movement in interest rates. Variable interest rates are
based on LIBOR plus a margin. The Company has assessed the impact
of changes in interest rate risks as being immaterial, as all
borrowings have a fixed rate of interest.
Foreign currency risk
The Company incurs foreign currency risk on investments that are
denominated in currencies other than Sterling. At present, the
Company does not have any formal policy for hedging against
exchange exposure. The Company may, when necessary, enter into
foreign currency forward contracts to hedge against exposure from
foreign currencies fluctuations. As at both 31(st) December 2014
and 31(st) December 2015 the Company has investments denominated in
Canadian Dollar. Any movement in the Canadian Dollar against
Sterling will create a fair value gain or loss. The Company has
assessed the impact of changes in exchange rates as not being
significant to the Company.
Capital risk management
The Company manages its capital to ensure the Company will be
able to continue on a going concern on a long term basis while
ensuring the optimal return to shareholders and other stakeholders
through an effective debt and equity balance.
The capital structure of the Company consists of equity
attributable to equity holders of the Company, less cash and bank
balances. The Management reviews the capital structure and makes
adjustment to it in the light of changes in economic
conditions.
The Company's capital employed is funded by equity attributable
to equity shareholders of the Company and net debt as follows:
2015 2014
GBP'000 GBP'000
Bank borrowings - -
Less: cash and bank balances (481) (196)
Net cash (481) (196)
Total equity 624 328
Capital Employed 143 131

Other financial assets and liabilities
The notional amounts of financial assets and liabilities with a
maturity of less than one year (including trade and other
receivables, cash and cash equivalents and trade and other
payables) are assumed to approximate their fair value.

under improved market conditions.
