Interim Results
Mila Resources Plc, a London listed natural resources company,
is pleased to present its interim results for the six-month period
ended 31 December 2019.
Highlights:
-- February 2020; the announcement of a non-binding Head of
Terms with regards to the possible acquisition of 100% of the share
capital of E-Tech Metals Ltd ('E-Tech'). E-Tech is a private
company developing projects in the critical and strategic metals
industry and its primary asset is the high-grade Eureka Rare Earth
Project in Namibia.
-- Strong balance sheet position with cash balance at the end of
the period GBP395,425 due to continuous prudent financial
management.
Chairman Statement
I am pleased to present the interim financial statements to
shareholders for the six months ended 31 December 2019.
The period under review was dominated by searching for a
suitable reverse takeover candidate, culminating in the
identification of E-Tech, whom hold the Eureka rare earth project
in Namibia, which we believe is a highly interesting opportunity.
We believe the project and its management will enable us to achieve
the ambitions we have for Mila.
The current pandemic, although devastating to businesses
globally, has not interrupted our plans to undertake a re-listing
of the enlarged entity and the Company and its professional
advisers are continuing with due diligence and preparing the
documentation for the re-listing. Clearly, we will need to assess
market conditions prior to raising any capital but it is very much
our current intention to complete the transaction by the end of
2020.
The company has advanced GBP50,000 to E-Tech in the form of a
secured loan which will assist with the reverse takeover
transaction and enable E-Tech to further enhance their project.
I look forward to reporting our progress to you over the coming
the months.

Board recognises the value of applying the principles of the Code
where appropriate and proportionate and has endeavoured to do so

MILA RESOURCES PLC
Notes to the financial statements
For the six months ended 31 December 2019
1 General information
Mila Resources Plc (the "Company") looks to id entify potential
companies, businesses or asset(s) that have operations in the
natural resources exploration, development and production sector
.
The Company is domiciled in the United Kingdom and incorporated
and registered in England and Wales, with registration number
09620350.
The Company's registered office is Lockstrood Farm, Ditchling
Common, Burgess Hill, West Sussex RH15 0SJ.
2 Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in preparation of
these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied unless otherwise
stated.
Basis of preparation
The interim unaudited financial statements for the period ended
31 December 2019 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34
Interim Financial Reporting. This interim financial information is
not the Company's statutory financial statements and should be read
in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the period
ended 30 June 2019, which have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and have been
delivered to the Registrars of Companies. The auditors have
reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified, did not
include references to any matters which the auditors drew attention
by way of emphasis of matter without qualifying their report and
did not contain statements under section 498 (2) or (3) of the
Companies Act 2006.
The interim financial information for the six months ended 31
December 2019 is unaudited. In the opinion of the Directors, the
interim consolidated financial information presents fairly the
financial position, and results from operations and cash flows for
the period.
The Directors have made an assessment of the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern and are satisfied that the Company
has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the
foreseeable future. The Company, therefore, continues to adopt the
going concern basis in preparing its consolidated financial
statements.
The financial information of the Company is presented in British
Pounds Sterling (GBP).
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of interim financial information requires
management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that
affect the application of accounting policies and the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of
income and expenses during the reporting period. Although these
estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current
events and actions, the resulting accounting estimates will, by
definition, seldom equal related actual results.
In preparing the interim financial information, the significant
judgements made by management in applying the Company's accounting
policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the
same as those that applied to the financial statements for the year
ended 30 June 2019.
3 Income tax expense
No tax is applicable to the Company for the six months ended 31
December 2019. No deferred income tax asset has been recognised in
respect of the losses carried forward, due to the uncertainty as to
whether the Company will generate sufficient future profits in the
foreseeable future to prudently justify this.
MILA RESOURCES PLC
Notes to the financial statements
For the six months ended 31 December 2019 (cont.)

Basic loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the loss
attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion
of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
There are currently no dilutive potential ordinary shares.

7 Subsequent events
Non-binding heads of Terms with E-Tech Metals Limited
("E-Tech")
On the 27(th) of February 2020, the company entered into a
non-binding Head of Terms with regards to the possible acquisition
of 100% of the share capital of E-Tech Metals Ltd ('E-Tech') to be
satisfied in New Ordinary Shares of the Company ('the Proposed
Transaction'). E-Tech is a private company developing projects in
the critical and strategic metals industry and its primary asset is
the high-grade Eureka Rare Earth Project in Namibia. The Proposed
Transaction remains subject to due diligence, completion of the
acquisition and re-listing of the enlarged group on the Official
List. The Proposed Transaction, if completed, would constitute a
reverse takeover under the Listing Rules. As the Company is
currently unable to provide a full disclosure under Listing Rule
5.6.15, it requested a temporary suspension of listing in its
ordinary shares with effect from 8.00 a.m., 27 February 2020,
pending the publication of a prospectus and the application for the
enlarged Company to have its Ordinary Shares admitted to the
Official List and to trading on the Main Market for listed
securities of the London Stock Exchange. The Proposed Transaction
will be subject to approval by shareholders of the Company at a
general meeting.
