NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended 30 June 2022
1. Basis of preparation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and on a going concern basis and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRIC interpretations adopted for use in the European Union ("IFRS") and those parts of the BVI Business Companies Act applicable to companies reporting under IFRS.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements contained in this document do not constitute statutory accounts. In the opinion of the directors, the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for this period fairly presents the financial position, result of operations and cash flows for this period.
The Board of Directors approved this Interim Financial Report on 28 September 2022.
Statement of compliance
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the AIM Rules for Companies. As permitted, the Company has chosen not to adopt IAS 34 "Interim Financial Statements" in preparing these interim condensed consolidated interim financial statements. The condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union.
Accounting policies
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2022 have not been audited or reviewed in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 issued by the Auditing Practices Board. The figures were prepared using applicable accounting policies and practices consistent with those adopted in the statutory annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021.
Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
• Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
• Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
2. Financial Risk Management
Risks and uncertainties
The Board continually assesses and monitors the key risks of the business. The key risks that could affect the Group's medium-term performance and the factors that mitigate those risks have not substantially changed from those set out in the Group's December 2021 Annual Report and Financial Statements, a copy of which is available from the Group's website: www.arcminerals.com. The key financial risks are market risk, currency risk, and liquidity.

6. Trade and Other Receivables
Included in trade and other receivables at 30 June 2022 is c.£1.1m (USD 1,375,000) in relation to the disposal of the Company's interest in Casa Mining Ltd and the Misisi Project (see note 12).
7. Gains and Losses on Disposal of Casa Mining Ltd
In the period to 30 June 2022, the gains and losses in respect of the disposal of Casa, totalling £840k, comprise the following:
Consideration
As announced on 29 April 2022, Regency Mining Ltd ("Regency") acquired a 73.5% interest in the Misisi gold project ("Misisi Project") from Golden Square Equity Partners Limited ("Golden Square"), replacing Rackla Metals Inc. as the acquiror of Misisi. The terms of the transaction were that Arc would be paid USD 250,000 in cash and the equivalent of USD 1,250,000 in shares in a publicly listed company in Canada ("Consideration Shares"), representing an additional gain on disposal of £1.204M (USD 1,500,000). The agreement also provided Arc with a royalty agreement on the same terms as the previous royalty agreement announced on 5 May 2021.
On 30 June, the Company received the first cash payment of USD 125,000 towards the USD 1,500,000 receivable from the disposal of its Casa interests. On 12 September, the Company received the second cash payment of USD 125,000, bringing the aggregate cash payments received by the Company to date to USD 250,000. The balance of USD 1,250,000 is to be settled by the issuance of listed stock which has been delayed due to corresponding delays in the listing process of the underlying entity. Management continues to follow up on progress and the directors consider the balance recoverable.
USD 5m Loan Note
From 19 March 2020, Arc held a USD 5,000,000 loan note issued by Golden Square (Pty) Ltd ("Golden Square Loan Note") secured by 3 million shares in OTC:TMNA ("Security Shares"). As announced on 29 April 2022 the Company accepted the Security Shares in full and final settlement of the Golden Square Loan Note. Whilst the share price of the Security Shares had reached an all-time low in June 2022 resulting in a valuation at 30 June 2022 of USD 2,370,000 and a resultant loss of £2.044M (USD 2,630,000) in the period, it has significantly recovered since the reporting date to a current valuation of USD 6,000,000 based on a closing share price of USD 2.015 on 22 September 2022.
8. Short-term Investments Held at Fair Value Through Profit and Loss
The Group's investments held at fair value through profit and loss consist of investments publicly traded on the London Stock Exchange and the Over-The-Counter (OTC) market. These investments are valued at the mid-price as at period end.

9. Zamsort/Handa Restructuring
Zamsort Settlement (background)
The Company announced in February 2022 that the parties to the legal cases in Zambia and in the UK have come to an agreement to settle various disputed matters and for all legal proceedings to be permanently dropped (the "Settlement Agreement"). The Settlement Agreement was submitted to Zambian courts to effect a Consent Judgement which has the force of law.
In return for the claimant parties, being Terra Metals Limited, Zambia Mineral Exchange Corporation Limited and their related parties (Mumena Mushinge, Brian Chisala and Katambi Bulawayo), relinquishing all claims against Zamsort or any other company in the Arc Minerals Ltd Group, present or contingent, and in full and final settlement of all claims in formal conclusion of all matters, the Group agreed to transfer to the claimant parties, for nil consideration, 100% of the issued share capital of Zamsort Ltd (the "Zamsort Transfer"), which owns the pilot plant. The Group also agreed to consent to the claimant parties applying for the 8 square kilometre small mining and small exploration license areas that were previously in existence at Zamsort prior to Arc's involvement (the "Original Zamsort License Area").
As announced on 31 March 2022, the Company issued 3,000,000 options in relation to the Zamsort Settlement with an exercise price of 5 pence each and an expiry date of 31 March 2024. Following the grant of these options there were 20,133,334 share options outstanding.
All of the Group's representative directors who served on the board of directors of Zamsort resigned effective 1 April 2022 ("Resignation Date").
Transfer of assets and liabilities from Zamsort to Handa
The pilot plant, related equipment and intangible assets that relate to the Original Zamsort License Area which remained in Zamsort ("Zamsort Retained Assets") was treated as available for sale assets at 31 December 2021. All assets and liabilities, other than the Zamsort Retained Assets, immediately preceding the date of the Zamsort Transfer (the "Transferred Assets & Liabilities") were transferred to Handa Resources Ltd ("Zamsort/Handa Restructuring"). The Zamsort/Handa Restructuring has been recorded on 31 March 2022, being the date immediately preceding the Resignation Date and resulted in a c.£6.8m expense in the period to 30 June 2022.
