Financial results and commentary
ASF Group Limited (‘ASF’) is a Sino-Australian investment and trading house which focuses principally on the identification, incubation and realisation of opportunities across various industries including oil & gas, resource, property, infrastructure, travel and financial services.
Revenue from continuing operations of ASF and its controlled entities (together the ‘group’) for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 was $2,767,000 (2013: $1,748,000).
The profit after tax attributable to members of ASF amounted to $956,000, compared with last financial year of a significant loss of $30,505,000, due mainly to the provision for impairment on the group’s investments.
Profit for the year was also contributed by the following items:
-
Reversal of impairment of investment in Rey Resources Limited of approximately $6.5 million;
-
Profit on partial disposal of investment in ActivEX Limited of approximately $0.5 million; and
-
Recognition of $1.2 million arising from the settlement of a misappropriation claim against a major Australian Bank.
At the reporting date, the group has outstanding convertible loan (‘Convertible Loan’) due to Star Diamond Developments Limited (‘Star Diamond’) of $3.1 million, principal and interest. At a general meeting of ASF held on 8 August 2014, shareholders approved the conversion of all outstanding Convertible Loans (including accrued interest) into shares of ASF at the price of $0.18 per share. Accordingly, the Convertible Loan (inclusive of interest) was subsequently repaid in full by the issue of 17,490,411 fully paid ordinary shares of ASF on 8 August 2014.
Finance costs amounted to $897,000 (2013: $1,037,000), which mainly represented accrued interests for the Convertible Loan.
Financial position
On 13 March 2014, ASF announced the extension of its on-market share buyback program for another 12 months. For the year ended 30 June 2014, ASF spent approximately $81,000 on this program and a total of 449,657 shares were bought back.
Net assets as at 30 June 2014 were $18,299,000, compared to $1,159,000 for the previous year. The significant increase in net assets this year was predominantly due to:
-
Conversion of the principal amount of $8 million Convertible Loan; and
-
Reversal of impairment in Rey Resources Limited.
The group maintains a strong cash position. In July 2014, ASF announced a fully underwritten non-renounceable 1 for 8 Rights Issue which was completed in early August and raised approximately $10 million (before costs).
