Note 4: Dividend

There were no interim dividends paid or declared for Resolute Mining Limited during the half year end up to the date of this report (half year ended 30 June 2024: $nil). In June 2025, a subsidiary of the Group declared a dividend of $66.0 million of which $6.6 million will be distributed to its minority shareholders.

 

As outlined in the significant state of affairs within the 31 December 2024 annual report, Resolute continues to work with the Malian Government to implement the requirements of the 2023 mining code, including the non-diluting priority dividend rights.


Note 5: Taxes

At 30 June 2025, the Group recognised an income tax expense of  $53.1 million (30 June 2024: tax expense of $ 19.98 million).  The increase in the income tax expense is primarily due to the expiration of the Mako tax exoneration and the utilisation of prior period tax losses at Syama in 2024. 


Note 6: Receivables

Included in the total receivables balance of $120.2 million are indirect tax receivables of $71.8 million as of 30 June 2025 (31 December 2024: $48.3 million). This primarily relates to indirect taxes owing to the Group from the Republic of Mali and Senegal.  The remaining receivables are primarily from the sale of the Ravenswood mine.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Note 8: Exploration assets

At 30 June 2025, the Group's exploration assets amount to $180.4 million (31 December 2024: $14.0 million ). During the six-month period to 30 June 2025, additions were primarily due to the acquisition of Doropo and ABC Projects of $156.1 million.

 

On 1 May 2025, Resolute Mining Limited acquired Centamin West African Holdings Limited and its' development-stage Doropo Gold Project along with its ABC project in Côte d'Ivoire from AngloGold Ashanti. This was for $150.0 million, comprising a $25.0 million upfront cash consideration on closing and deferred and contingent consideration consisting of the following:

▪  $50.0 million paid 18 months after closing;

▪  $75.0 million paid 30 months after closing;

▪  The transfer all of Resolute's exploration permits in Guinea to AngloGold (which is subject to government approval); should the transfer not be completed within 18 months from signing Resolute will pay $25.0 million to AngloGold in lieu of the transfer, and

▪  The deferred consideration also includes a 2% royalty over the ABC Project and $10.0 million contingent payment due upon the release of a Feasibility Study over the ABC Project that outlines a Mineral Reserve (JORC 2012) exceeding 1Moz of gold.


Note 9: Development assets and property, plant and equipment

At 30 June 2025, the Group's mine properties amount to $453.5 million (31 December 2024: $431.8 million). During the six-month period to 30 June 2025, further additions for development activities were made of $15.3 million.

Independent auditor's review report to the members of Resolute Mining Limited

 

Conclusion

 

We have reviewed the accompanying half‑year financial report of Resolute Mining Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated cash flow statement for the half‑year ended on that date, notes comprising a statement of accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half‑year financial report of the Group does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

(a)           Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2025 and of                    its consolidated financial performance for the half‑year ended on that date; and

(b)           Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

 

Basis for conclusion

 

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (ASRE 2410) and ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (ISRE 2410). Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the half-year financial report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

 

Directors' responsibilities for the half-year financial report

 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half‑year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half‑year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the half-year financial report

 

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half‑year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 and ISRE 2410 require us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half‑year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2025 and its performance for the half‑year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


A review of a half‑year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards or International Standards on Auditing issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
