QUARTERLY REPORT
EXPLORATION & CORPORATE HIGHLIGHTS
- Binding HOA signed for Acquisition of 74% interest in Blom Diamonds
Corporate:
Last quarter saw Tychean Resources successfully sign a Binding Heads of Agreement (HOA) to acquire a 74% interest in Blom Diamond Cutting Works and Ernest Blom Diamonds CC (Blom Diamonds), an established South Africa-based diamond company. The acquisition is a culmination of significant efforts in securing Tychean a cornerstone project and will transform the Company into a vertically integrated diamond-focused company.
Blom Diamonds, comprising Blom Diamond Cutting Works Pty Ltd and Ernest Blom Diamonds CC is a well-established business with a proven track record accumulated over 38 years and a profitable operation that will provide a cash underpin to Tychean and distinguish it from the host of competitor exploration companies. Based in South Africa, Blom Diamonds currently engages in the trading, beneficiation, cutting and polishing of diamonds.
Agreement Terms:
Under the terms of the HOA, Tychean will acquire a 74% equity interest in Blom Diamonds on the following basis:
-
a) 68,450,000 Tychean shares to be issued to Blom Diamonds following transaction completion
-
b) Performance shares in the capital of Tychean convert upon the satisfaction of the following milestones
-
a. Milestone 1 - 433,516,667 Tychean shares upon Blom Diamonds achieving EBITDA of ZAR 19,615,312 (A$ 1,926,871*) for the financial year ending 30 June 2018
2
-
b. Milestone 2 - 433,516,667 Tychean shares upon Blom Diamonds achieving EBITDA of ZAR 22,152,739 (A$ 2,176,130*) for the financial year ending 30 June 2019
-
c. Milestone 3 - 433,516,667 Tychean shares upon Blom Diamond achieving EBITDA of ZAR 25,539,051 (A$ 2,508,778*) for the financial year ending 30 June 2020
-
c) Conversion of performance shares will be subject to a minimum threshold conversion of 50% meaning that performance shares will be issued on a prorata basis according to actual EBITDA as a % of each EBITDA milestone should actual EBITDA be at least 50% of the milestone. For example, if actual EBITDA for the financial year ending 30 June 2018 is 80% of the milestone, 80% of the performance shares will be converted into ordinary shares
-
d) Any shortfall in the conversion of performance shares can be carried forward to the next financial year and converted into ordinary shares on a pro-rata basis should the actual EBITDA for that financial year exceed the milestone EBITDA
*Based on current exchange rates
The transaction is subject to conditions such as both parties having the right to complete due diligence, which was mutually agreed to expire on 19 May 2017, Tychean shareholder approval and satisfaction of all legal and regulatory requirements.
Tychean’s cash balance as at 31 March 2017 is $292,538.
EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES:
Tanami Joint Venture (NT) – Ramelius 85%, Tychean 15%.
Tychean maintain a 15% interest in the project, with joint venturer Ramelius Resources (ASX:RMS) who completed its maiden Aircore drilling programme at the Highland Rocks ELs totalling 5,780m during the December quarter where further drilling results are expected.
It is anticipated the balance of the Tanami joint venture ELA’s will be granted ahead of the start of the 2017 field season.
