Directors’ Report

The Directors of Genmin Limited ( Genmin or Company) and its controlled entities ( Group ), present their Report together with the Interim Financial Report of the Consolidated Entity, for the half-year period ended 30 June 2021 and the Independent Auditor’s Report thereon.

Directors

The names of the Directors of the Company in office up to the date of this report are:

Mr Michael Arnett Non-Executive Chairman Appointed: 10 March 2021 Mr Giuseppe Ariti Managing Director & CEO Mr John Hodder Non-Executive Director Re-elected: 27 May 2021 Mr Salvatore Pietro Amico Non-Executive Director Mr Brian van Rooyen Non-Executive Director Appointed: 10 March 2021

Directors have been in office since the start of the financial year to the date of this report, unless otherwise stated.

Results of Operations

The Group recorded a loss after tax for the half-year ended 30 June 2021 of US$709,455 (2020: US$1,269,471).

Review of Operations

On 10 March 2021, the Company was successfully admitted to the official list of the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ), following an initial public offering ( IPO ) and capital raising, made pursuant to its Prospectus dated 9 February 2021 ( Prospectus ). Genmin issued approximately 88.2 million new shares at AU$0.34 per share, to raise AU$30 million (US$23.1 million) (before costs) and an additional 12.2 million new shares, to extinguish a US$3.2 million Convertible Note (including Interest and The Establishment Fee).

Funds raised by Genmin in the IPO are being applied to develop its 100% owned African iron ore assets located in Gabon, central West Africa. More specifically completion of a Preliminary Feasibility Study at the Baniaka Iron Ore Project ( Baniaka ) (feasibility stage), resource definition at the Bakoumba Iron Ore Project (advanced exploration stage), and regional exploration at the Minvoul/Bitam Iron Ore Project (early exploration stage), as well as working capital.

As part of, and following, the successful IPO and capital raising, the Company has made significant progress in its growth through enhancing Board independence, increasing the breadth and skill set of the executive leadership group and executing on the ground work activities, including:

  • appointment of Mr Michael Arnett and Mr Brian van Rooyen as independent, non-executive directors who also add legal and further enhance African, iron ore and steelmaking, and commercial skill sets to the Board;

  • expanding the breadth of the executive leadership group with the appointment of a Chief Financial Officer, General Manager – Technical Services, new Company Secretary, and at the end of the half-year, a Study Manager and Manager – Sales & Marketing;

  • recommencement of diamond drilling at Baniaka in late June 2021, which remains ongoing;

  • commencement of pilot scale metallurgical test work in South Africa on representative bulk oxide iron ore samples from within the mineral resource envelope at Baniaka;

  • completion of a detrital iron deposits mineral resource update improving the 63.1 million tonne mineral resource classification from 19% to 38% Indicated at Baniaka[1] ; and

  • commencement of small, support civil work programs including 31km of access road refurbishment and installation of bulk fuel storage at Baniaka.

Gabon generally experiences low levels of COVID-19 infections, with approximately 25,600 cases and 165 deaths recorded since the commencement of the pandemic, to 18 August 2021. Subject to normal visa restrictions, travel in and out of Gabon is permitted and the government has in place various protection protocols (PCR testing on arrival and exit, online government quarantine accommodation portal, mandatory wearing of masks, a vaccination program and vaccination incentives), to manage and stop transmission of the virus.

During the half-year, the Company has not experienced any significant impact on its operations through COVID-19, or as a result of the protective measures Gabon has in place. The Company has indirect exposure to the impact of COVID-19 on global logistics chains through its drilling contractors at Baniaka, specifically the procurement and transport of supplies and consumables in support of the drilling function.

On 2 August 2021, Genmin’s auditor Bentleys Audit & Corporate (WA) Pty Ltd (ABN 33 121 222 802) merged with, and changed its name to, Hall Chadwick WA Audit Pty Ltd (ABN 33 121 222 802) ( Hall Chadwick WA ). The Auditors Independence Declaration and the Independent Auditor’s Review Report is issued by Hall Chadwick WA, but for all intents and purposes the shareholder approved auditor remains the same.

Subsequent Events

No other matters or circumstances have arisen, which significantly affect or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.

Auditor’s Independence Declaration

A copy of the Auditor’s Independence Declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 6 and forms part of this Directors’ Report.

Signed in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Preparation

These condensed interim financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 , Australian Accounting Standards including AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting , Accounting Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board.

The financial statements comprise the consolidated condensed interim financial statements for the Group. For the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Group is a for-profit entity.

The interim financial statements do not include full disclosures of the type normally included in the full financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the Group as in the full financial report. It is recommended interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the full financial report for the year ended 31 December 2020 and any public announcements made by Genmin and its subsidiaries during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.

The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding half-year, except for the impact of the new Standards and Interpretations effective 1 January 2021 disclosed below. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ).

The interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for selected noncurrent assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. Historical cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

The Company is domiciled in Australia and all amounts are presented in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted.

For the purpose of preparing the interim financial statements, the half-year has been treated as a discrete reporting period.

Statement of compliance

The interim financial report was authorised for issue on 3 September 2021.

The interim financial statements comply with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards ( AIFRS ). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the interim financial statements and notes thereto, complies with IFRS.

Significant accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the interim financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the Group’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.

New and revised Standards and Interpretations

Standards and Interpretations

In the period ended 30 June 2021, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual reporting period. As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Company and, therefore, no material change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted

The Directors have also reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted for the half-year ended 30 June 2021. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the Company and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

2. Going Concern

The Interim Financial Report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

The Group incurred a loss for the half-year of US$709,455 (2020: US$1,269,471), and had a net operating cash outflow of US$2,227,237 (30 June 2020: US$950,038).

The above is mitigated for the following reasons:

  • Genmin completed an IPO and raised US$23.1m (AU$30m) on 10 March 2021 and as at 30 June 2021, the Company had US$19.3m as cash and cash equivalent;

  • Management has prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Company has sufficient funds to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for the next 12 months from the date of signing this interim financial report; and

  • Given the Company’s history of raising capital to date and the expanded shareholder base following the IPO, the Directors are reasonably confident of the Company’s ability to raise additional funds as and when they are required.

On 1 May 2020, Genmin signed a Convertible Note Deed ( Deed ) with Tembo Capital Mining Fund LP ( Tembo ), which was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the 2020 Annual General Meeting. The key terms of the Deed were as follows:

  • Genmin to raise up to US$3m by issuing up to 30,000 unsecured convertible notes to Tembo at a face value of US$100 each, convertible into fully paid ordinary shares of Genmin ( Facility );

  • An establishment fee of 2% and interest rate of 10% per annum payable on the Facility;

  • The Facility had a Maturity Date of 30 June 2021, and the Repayment Amount was due and payable on 31 December 2021.

  • Subject to certain regulatory approvals, Tembo could have elected to convert the notes into shares at a conversion price, which was equal to the higher of:

  • 100% subtract the 15% discount rate then multiplied by the price per share payable on the basis of the fair market value that is determined by an independent expert; and

  • o the floor price, which is US$0.15 per share.

Tembo retrospectively received Foreign Investment Review Board ( FIRB ) approval of the Deed on 25 November 2020 and accordingly, Genmin recognised the embedded derivative. Prior to receiving FIRB approval, Genmin treated the Facility as an unsecured debt.
