RED LEOPARD HOLDINGS PLC
("Red Leopard", the "Company" or the "Group")
Interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2015
Red Leopard presents the unaudited interim accounts for the six
months ended 30 June 2015.
During the period, the Company announced in January 2015 that
further in the Idora Tunnel (the "Tunnel"), rock falls had been
discovered which hindered access to the ore body and any sampling
thereof. Due to the Health & Safety complexities arising from
these rock falls, the cost of commencing a work programme at the
Tunnel increased beyond the Company's original budget. Winter
weather in the first part of the year also curtailed progress. The
Company further announced that it would have to secure additional
funding to be able to commence with its clearance of the
Tunnel.
We are pleased to report that, as announced in August 2015, the
Company raised a total of GBP175,000 before expenses through a
placing of 175,000,000 ordinary shares with new investors, the net
proceeds of which will enable the Company to access and clear the
Idora Tunnel for the purposes of exploration and testing on its
mining claims. The Company remains committed to completing this
project and is now waiting for revised work quotes from local
mining engineers. This process has been delayed due to severe
forest fires in Idaho which have closed the relevant access roads,
however the fires have recently subsided and the Company hopes that
progress at the Tunnel can now be made. The placing has also
provided the Company with additional working capital.
Throughout, the Company continues to be proactive in exploring
and considering other complimentary resource assets and
opportunities
A copy of the interim results will be available on the Company's

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
1 Nature of operations and general information
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY
Red Leopard Holdings plc is focussed on the natural resources
sector (both exploration and production), with a particular
emphasis on precious mining assets and interests.
BUSINESS REVIEW
Financial overview and performance
Loss for the group before tax for the period was GBP113,981
(2014: GBP80,662).
Strategy
The Company' strategy is to adhere to its investing policy
focussed on natural resources.
Investing Policy
The investing policy is to pursue investments in the natural
recourses sector, and in particular, precious metals.
The Directors are initially focussed on North and South America,
where the Directors believe that a number of opportunities exist to
acquire interests in suitable projects. Investments may be made in
exploration, development and/or producing assets.
The Directors may consider it appropriate to purchase companies
or interests in assets which may result in an equity interest in
any proposed investment ranging from a minority position to 100 per
cent ownership. Proposed investments may be made in either quoted
or unquoted companies and structured as a direct acquisition, joint
venture or a direct interest in a project.
Where necessary, the Company may seek participation in the
management or with the board of directors of an entity in which the
Company invests; or in the event that it is acquired then in the
on-going enlarged entity.
New investments will be held for the medium to longer term;
although shorter term disposal of any investments cannot be ruled
out should such an opportunity present itself.
There is no limit on the number of projects into which the
Company may invest, and the Company's financial resources may be
invested in a number of propositions or just one, which may be
deemed to be a reverse takeover pursuant to Rule 14 of the AIM
Rules. Where the Company builds a portfolio of related assets it is
possible that there may be cross-holdings between such assets. The
Company does not currently intend to fund any investments with debt
or other borrowings but may do so if appropriate.
The Directors undertake initial project assessments themselves
with additional independent technical advice as required. The
Company does not have a separate investment manager.
The Directors may offer new Ordinary Shares by way of
consideration as well as cash subject to its availability to the
Company. The Company may in appropriate circumstances, issue debt
securities or otherwise borrow money to complete an investment. The
Directors do not intend to acquire any cross-holdings in other
corporate entities that have an interest in the Ordinary
Shares.
