Financial Performance

The decrease in Group turnover was mainly as a result of a decrease in turnover for Ndola Lime Company by 46% from K116.5 million to K62.5 million for the period under review. No Dividends were earned for the period ended 30th September 2016 (September 2015: K11.9 million)…

On 6th June 2016 ZCCM-IH filed a Claim Form with the English High Court to recover outstanding sums in excess of US$100 million due to it from KCM, pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement entered into in 2013. On 16 December 2016, ZCCM-IH was successful in its application for default judgment. KCM was ordered to pay all sums owed to ZCCM-IH pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (plus associated contractual interest) within thirty (30) days. The total amount to be paid by KCM amounted to approximately US$103 million. KCM was also ordered to reimburse ZCCM-IH 80% of the costs it had incurred in pursuing its claim. Further directions were given to determine whether KCM made payments to Vedanta Group Companies in breach of the prohibition on doing so under the Settlement Agreement. If and to the extent it is determined that such payments were made, ZCCM-IH will be entitled to recover additional sums from KCM…
Subsequent events to 30 September 2016

Pursuant to the judgment of the English Court, KCM was ordered to pay ZCCM-IH, by 13 January 2017:

- ZCCM-IH and KCM have agreed to amend the dates by which KCM will make payments in respect of the Judgment Sum (which sum remains outstanding as ordered by the English Court).
The agreement to amend the dates by which KCM will make payments in respect of the outstanding sums owed to ZCCM-IH will be recorded in a Consent Order of the English Court.
Pursuant to the terms of the Consent Order, KCM will pay ZCCM-IH:

ZCCM-IH | Unaudited provisional abridged results to 31 March 2016
In compliance with the requirements of the Listing Rules of the Lusaka Securities Exchange, ZCCM-IH Plc announces its unaudited provisional annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016. Below are excepts from the financial statements.
Financial highlights
- Performance of the Group continued to be impacted by low Global Copper Prices and low production. The Price of Copper on the LME further fell from US$6,052/ton at 31 March 2015 to US$4,848/ton at 31 March 2016. As a result, most of the Investee Companies recorded significant operating losses during the period. Further, the Kwacha depreciated by 48% from K7.5755/US$ in March 2015 to K11.1800/US$ at 31 March 2016. This had a significant impact on the Group results.
- Operating loss reduced by 91% to K207 million (2015: K 2,179million). The Group’s share of losses of equity accounted investees was K2, 259 million (2015: Share of Profit K280 million).
- Loss after tax was K2,303 million (2015: Loss K987million).
- Total assets increased by 29% from K8, 504 million to K10, 956 million largely on account of translation differences on equity accounted investees.
- The Ndola Lime recapitalization project underwent hot commissioning. The K651 million shareholder loan that ZCCM-IH lent to Ndola Lime Company Limited (NLC) was converted into Equity in order to strengthen the company’s balance sheet.
Outlook
The copper price has recently shown signs of recovery, and it would appear that beyond 2016 the price will continue to recover. ZCCM-IH’s investee companies that operate mines, have been undergoing restructuring in order to contain operating costs in the midst of the global copper price crunch. This should have positive results going forward, though recovery will be slow.
In order to ensure survival ZCCM-IH, continues to explore diversification. Introducing initiatives to achieve efficiencies at Ndola Lime Company Limited, investment into property and agriculture are activities expected to positively impact the Group in the medium to long term.
