Our balance sheet remains robust with significant cash balances remaining after the costs of acquisitions and R&D and an unused working capital facility. The financial strength and prospects facilitates supporting the dividend to shareholders.

Good return to profit but the year ahead looks like its going to impact.

Commenting on the Interim Results, Alistair Black, Chief Executive of ATH, said: "Despite the challenges faced by the Group from rising gas oil prices and unexpected geological conditions at Glenmuckloch, underlying profit for the first six months was some £2 million better than the previous year at £1.7 million (2010: loss £0.3 million). With the Netherton site now fully developed the Board had expected a typically strong second half performance, however, current mining conditions at Muir Dean and the presence of heat affected coal at Netherton suggest volumes will now be lower than expected for the full year. In view of the above, the Board has decided to concentrate its mining effort on accessing higher quality, lower ratio coal. This has necessitated the write-off of a significant part of its work in progress balance and a reduced expectation for the year. The Group expects that the impact on sales volumes will be increasingly offset by improved selling prices as we move forward and, consequently, the Board remains confident in the medium and long term prospects for the business." "We are still on track to fulfill the first of the Group's fixed price legacy contracts, which continue to restrict earnings, and look forward to further significant improvements to average selling prices once they have been completed."

Interim Results ATH Resources plc (AIM:ATH), one of the UK's largest coal producers, reports its Interim Results for the six months ended 3 April 2011. Highlights · New site at Netherton opened and fully operational · Revenue of £33.9 million (2010: £34.4 million), on sales of 706,000 tonnes (2010: 776,000 tonnes) · Operating profit before exceptional items up £2 million on the same period last year at £1.7 million (2010: loss £0.3 million) · Average selling price increased to £48 per tonne (2010: £44 per tonne) helped offset the impact of rising gas oil prices and lower volumes · Proved and probable reserves of 7.9 million tonnes (2010: year end 8.6 million tonnes), with planning applications for a further 300,000 tonnes submitted · Net borrowings, including hire purchase of £15.9 million, remained steady from last year end at £34.5 million after investing £8 million in the Netherton site · Development of the new site at Duncanziemere commences in August 2011 as planned · Continued progress towards fulfilling legacy contracts
