Post Period Corporate and Operational updates:
Corporate Update
-- The Company has agreed a Group funding package with Coris
Bank for c.US$55 million including:
o Refinancing c.US$35 million of existing loans with Coris Bank,
to provide additional cash flow flexibility as Kouroussa progresses
towards steady state production; and
o An additional c.US$20 million to provide increased capital
support for the Group, including the continual development of
underground mining operations at the Yanfolila Mine, Mali.
-- The Company's revised loan repayment schedule to begin in
FY-2024, versus Q3-2023, with c.US$77 million due in FY-2024,
c.US$61 million scheduled for FY-2025, with the balance c.US$15
million payable by the end of FY-2028.
-- Updated 2023 Company Reserves and Resources statements were
released on 13 September 2023, noting Group Reserves of 4.03
million ounces ("Moz") and Group Resources of 6.95 Moz.
Yanfolila Gold Mine, Mali
-- Following the completion of mining in the Komana East open
pit in Q2-2023, the development of the Komana East Underground Mine
has continued to progress, with significant advancement of the
portal access and development drive declines.
-- Yanfolila remains well positioned to meet its FY-2023
production guidance of 80,000 - 90,000 oz at an AISC of under
US$1,500 per oz.
Kouroussa Gold Mine, Guinea
-- Following Kouroussa's first gold pour in June 2023, the
operations team recently completed a first gold shipment of
approximately 1,000 oz of gold.
-- The Company plans to increase the size and regularity of its
gold pours and shipments through Q4-2023 as the operation
progresses towards steady state production and a full year of
commercial production for FY-2024.
A more detailed update on the Company's operations will be given
at the Company's Q3-2023 operational and trading update, scheduled
for release in late October 2023.
Dan Betts, CEO of Hummingbird, commented:
" Our H1-2023 performance of over 51 Koz of gold produced at an
H1-2023 AISC profile of US$1,170 per oz and US$33 million of group
EBITDA is the result of the focussed efforts by the team over the
last year to stabilise the Yanfolila operation and re-establish a
more reliable platform for the Company to grow from.
At Kouroussa, H1-2023 saw the construction of the project
completed on time and on budget, and conduct its first gold pour,
marking a material milestone for the Company to become a
multi-asset, multi-jurisdictional gold producer. The key focus for
our Kouroussa operations team is on reaching steady state
production and setting the mine up for full commercial production
for FY-2024 and beyond.
Further, we are pleased to have agreed a refinancing package
with our financing partner Coris Bank, who remain committed
supporters to Hummingbird's growth platform. This package will
provide additional flexibility in 2023 to allow Kouroussa to reach
steady state production and provide additional capital support for
the Group.
More details on our operations will be given at our Q3-2023
operational and trading update in late October."

2. Adoption of new and revised standards
The interim financial statements have been drawn up based on
accounting policies consistent with those applied in the financial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. There were several

IFRS 17 effective 1 January 2023 Insurance contracts
IAS 1 effective 1 January 2023 Disclosure of accounting policies
IAS 8 effective 1 January 2023 Definition of accounting estimate
IAS 12 effective 1 January 2023 Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction
3. Significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
UK adopted International Accounting Standards. The principal
accounting policies adopted are set out below. The functional
currency of all companies in the Group is United States Dollar
("$"). The financial statements are presented in thousands of
United States dollars ("$'000").
The consolidated interim financial information for the period 1
January 2023 to 30 June 2023 is unaudited, does not include all the
information required for full financial statements and should be
read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. In the opinion of
the Directors the consolidated interim financial information for
the period represents fairly the financial position, results from
operation and cash flows for the period in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. The
consolidated interim financial information incorporates comparative
figures for the interim period 1 January 2022 to 30 June 2022 and
the audited financial year to 31 December 2022. As permitted, the
Group has chosen not to adopt IAS34 'Interim Financial
Reporting'.
The annual financial statements of Hummingbird Resources plc are
prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting
Standards. The Group's consolidated annual financial statements for
the year ended 31 December 2022, have been filed with the Registrar
of Companies and are available on the Company's website
www.hummingbirdresources.co.uk. The auditor's report on those
financial statements though unqualified contained an emphasis of
matter paragraph in respect of risks surrounding the going concern
assumption of the Company at that date.
On 30 June 2023, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of $5.7
million and total borrowings of $128.6 million. As of June 30,
2023, the Company had a working capital deficiency (current assets
less current liabilities) of $98.0 million. The current liabilities
include Anglo Pacific royalty liability of $15 million which,
although current due to the nature of the agreement, is not
expected to be paid soon.
Going concern
The Group has prepared cash flow forecasts based on estimates of
key variables including production, gold price, operating costs,
capital expenditure through to December 2024 that supports the
conclusion of the Directors that they expect sufficient funding to
be available to meet the Group's anticipated cash flow requirements
to this date.
These cashflow forecasts are subject to several risks and
uncertainties, in particular the ability of the Group to achieve
the planned levels of production and the recent average higher gold
prices being sustained. The Board reviewed and challenged the key
assumptions used by management in its going concern assessment, as
well as the scenarios applied and risks considered, including the
risks associated with the recent change in governments in Mali and
Guinea.
The biggest material uncertainty and risk remains ounces
produced and whether the current mine plan can be achieved
(including expected production from the newly completed Kouroussa
mine), mining contractor equipment performance. Where additional
funding may be required, the Group believes it has several options
available to it, including but not limited to, use of the overdraft
facility, cost reduction strategies, selling of non-core assets,
raising additional funds from current investors and debt
partners.
The Board also considered sensitivities to those cash flow
scenarios (including where production is lower than forecast and
gold prices lower than current levels) which would require
additional funding. Should this situation arise, the Directors
believe that they have several options available to them, such as
use of the current overdraft facility, obtaining additional
funding, delaying expenditures, sale of non-core assets, which
would allow the Group to meet its cash flow requirements through
this period, however, there remains a risk that the Group may not
be able to achieve these in the necessary timeframe.
Based on its review, the Board has a reasonable expectation that
the Group has adequate resources to continue operating for the
foreseeable future and hence the Board considers that the
application of the going concern basis for the preparation of the
Financial Statements was appropriate. However, the risk of
lower-than-expected production levels, timing of VAT offsets and
receipts and the ability to secure any potential required funding
at date of signing of these financial statements, indicates the
existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant
doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
Should the Group be unable to achieve the required levels of
production and associated cashflows, defer expenditures or obtain
additional funding such that the going concern basis of preparation
was no longer appropriate, adjustment would be required including
the reduction of balance sheet asset values to their recoverable
amounts and to provide for future liabilities should they
arise.
4. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation
("EBITDA") is a factor of volumes, prices and cost of production.
This is a measure of the underlying profitability of the Group,
widely used in the mining sector. Adjusted EBITDA removes the
effect of impairment charges, foreign currency translation
gains/losses and other non-recurring expense adjustments but
including IFRS 16 lease payments.

The Group's primary tax rate is aligned with its operations in
Mali of 30%. The taxation of the Group's operations in Mali are
aligned to the Mining Code of Mali 1999 under which tax is charged
at an amount not less than 1% of turnover and not more than 30% of
taxable profits.
6. Loss per ordinary share
Basic loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net
loss for the period/year attributable to ordinary equity holders of
the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the period/year.
The calculation of the basic and diluted loss per share is based
on the following data:
Audited year ended 31 December 2022
Unaudited six months ended 30 June 2023 Unaudited six months ended 30 June 2022 $'000

For the period ended 30 June 2023, because there is a reduction
in diluted loss per share due to the loss-making position,
therefore there is no difference between basic and diluted loss per
share.
