ASX Announcement

(ASX:RAN) Friday, 27 January 2017

Appendix 4C – Quarter ended 31 December 2016

Range International Limited presents its Appendix 4C report. This report reflects the cash flow of the consolidated entity ("Range" or "Group") for the quarter ended 31 December 2016.

This cash flow reflects the strategic focus of the Group, as stated in the Prospectus, to rapidly expand our production capacity. Year to date, more than US$11.7 M in cash has been invested in the new facility and new equipment, with another US$7 M to be invested in the first quarter of 2017. This is in line with the use of funds disclosed in the Prospectus and represents a very important step as we look to build our capacity so that we can satisfy customer needs and our growing sales targets.

Receipts from customers in the December quarter represent a 320% increase over the previous quarter. With the commissioning of the first new ThermoFusionTM production line in East Java this month and the scheduled installation of a new ThermoFusionTM production line every 6 weeks throughout 2017, we will be able to rapidly expand our production capacity to meet customer demand.

CEO Lars Amstrup said:

"I am very pleased with the progress we have made in the very short time since our listing. We have been able to secure a new production facility and get it to the point of being able to produce pallets in less than six months while also growing our sales team locally and throughout the Asian region as well as developing a new range of pallets to be released in the second quarter."

Key strategic events reflected in the Appendix 4C

  • US$37.5M (AUD$50M) capital raising and successful listing on the ASX on 22 July 2016;
  • 320% increase in receipts from customers over the previous quarter;
  • US$11.7M ytd (US$6.8 this quarter) invested in new production capacity;
  • US$7M committed to be invested in new production capacity in the first quarter 2017;
  • First ThermoFusionTM machine installed in Pasuruan to commence operations and produce pallets this month; and
  • Recruitment of key personnel to facilitate the expansion of production and sales throughout Asia.

About Range International:

Range is a manufacturer of plastic pallets. Our ThermoFusion™ technology allows Range to make plastic pallets from 100% recycled mixed waste plastic at a price that is competitive with wood pallets. It currently has two production lines operating at its factory in Bali, Indonesia and sells its pallets under the brand Re>Pal™. Range is scaling up its operations in Indonesia. In the medium term, the Company's goal is to establish a global production footprint and sales distribution network.
