Gross profit 154 163 40 352
amongst them were acute power shortages, spiralling exchange rates, unreasonable pricing distortions and huge foreign currency inadequacies. Notwithstanding the various Administrative expenses (2 544 621) (1 067 498)
mitigating initiatives put in place by the Group to counteract these challenges, the impact of these factors had a significant negative effect on the operating and financial performance Other income 98 668 76 240

Gold production for the period declined by 30% to 393kg compared to 564kg achieved in the same period in the prior year. The subdued production was mainly attributable to the Income tax expense (3 039 249) (758 440)

negligible production output at Dalny during the period coupled with under capacity utilisation at Cam & Motor after discontinuance of the One Step operation to pave way for the

Revenue generated during the period was ZW$4.8 billion in comparison to ZW$2.6 billion recorded in the prior year. In spite of the reduction in gold production, revenue increased (5 469 118) (1 479 706)
due to the steep depreciation of the local currency against the United States dollar as the average exchange rate moved from US$1:ZW$88 in the six-month period in the prior year Loss per share (cents)
to US$1:ZW$176 in the current period. However, this had a counter-balancing effect with costs rising disproportionately higher than revenue. The low gold production volumes Basic (4 477) (1 211)
coupled with the adverse effect of exchange rates distortions on costs, plunged the Group into a net loss of ZW$5.5 billion for the period under review. Diluted (4 477) (1 211)

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF
Renco Mine OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
The mine’s production for the period fell by 37% to 174kg from 278kg achieved in the same period in prior year. The low gold production was a result of low milled tonnage arising
from severe power challenges during the first quarter and lost production due to a month long labour dispute in the second quarter. The labour dispute was amicably resolved and for the six months ended 30 June 2022
industrial relations at the mine are now stable after the engagements and interventions by management.
