MITCHELL SERVICES LIMITED

(ASX: MSV)

Appendix 4C Quarterly Report and Investor Update

Dear Shareholder,

Mitchell Services Limited ( The Company ) is pleased to provide the following Investor Update and 4C for the quarter ended 31 December 2015.

The Company’s main focus areas during the past quarter have included:

  • Mobilisation and commencement of drilling at the Cracow and Pajingo mine sites under the recently awarded Evolution contract

  • Managing the increasing operating rig count that peaked at 23 in November

  • The sale of appropriately identified surplus assets within the fleet and the corresponding reduction of company debt

  • Pursuing new contract opportunities

As the attached 4C illustrates the Company has generated positive operating cash flows of $236k financial year to date and negative operating cash flows of $288k for the December quarter. Included in this quarter’s operating cash flows are payments of approximately $1mil for upfront/ramp up costs relating to the Evolution contract that are expected to be recovered during the life of the contract. The December 2015 quarter saw average operating rig counts of 22 compared to 11 for the quarter ended December 2014.

During the quarter the Company completed a highly successful surplus asset sales process. Proceeds from asset sales for the quarter ending 31 December 2015 were $4.79mil and $5.97mil year to date. The Company has used these proceeds to repay debt and fund the capital expenditure required for Cracow and Pajingo.

I look forward to a safe, busy and challenging quarter ahead.

Yours Faithfully

Andrew Elf Chief Executive Officer
