Interim Management Report

Dear Shareholders,

 

I am pleased to present the interim accounts for the six-month period to 31 October 2024 for Citius Resources Plc.  The Company is in the final stages with the UK Regulator of the acquisition of 100% of the issued shares in Harena Resources Pty Ltd ("Harena") the 75% owner of the Ampasindava Rare Earths Project in Madagascar (the, "Acquisition"). Harena is an Australian domiciled company preparing to develop the 75% owned Ampasindava Rare Earths Project, which includes targeting the mining and processing of Ionic Clay material to extract Rare Earth elements to produce Mixed Rare Earth Carbonate or Mixed Rare Earth Concentrate. 

 

The Acquisition will constitute a Reverse Take Over under the Listing Rules and accordingly, the company will apply for re-admission of its shares to the Official List and Main Market of the London Stock Exchange following an Extraordinary General Meeting.

 

I would like to thank all our shareholders for their patience and we look forward to finally applying for re-admission and moving the Ampasindava Rare Earths project forward.

 

Cameron Pearce
Chief Executive Officer  

Responsibility Statement of the Directors' in respect of the Interim Report

The Directors are responsible for preparing the Interim Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. In addition, the Directors have elected to prepare the Interim Financial Statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), as adopted by the United Kingdom ("UK").

 

The Interim Financial Statements are required to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.

In preparing these Interim Financial Statements, the Directors are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

present information and make judgements that are reasonable, prudent and provides relevant, comparable and understandable information;

provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in IFRS is insufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular transactions, other events and conditions on the entity's financial position and financial performance; and

make an assessment of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time its financial position of the Group to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Group and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.

The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and Interim Financial Statements.  Legislation governing the preparation and dissemination of Interim Financial Statements may differ from one jurisdiction to another.

We confirm that to the best of our knowledge:

·              the Interim Financial Statements, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the UK, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the Group for the period;

·              the Director's report includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the group, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that they face; and

·              the annual report and financial statements, taken as a whole, are fair, balanced and understandable and provide the information necessary for shareholders to assess the group's performance, business model and strategy.
