ZCCM-IH | Audited abridged results to 31 March 2016

In accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act No. 41 of 2016, ZCCM-IH Plc announces its audited annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016. Below are excepts from the results.

Commentary

  • Performance of the Group continued to be impacted by low global copper prices coupled with low production. The price of copper on the LME further fell from US$6,052/ton at 31 March 2015 to US$4,848/ton at 31 March 2016. As a result, most of the investee companies recorded significant operating losses during the period. Further, the Kwacha depreciated by 48% from K7.5755/US$ as at 31 March 2015 to K11.1800/US$ as at 31 March 2016. This had a significant impact on the Group results.
  • Operating loss reduced by 61% to K858 million (2015: K 2,179million). The Group’s share of losses of equity accounted investees was K2, 210 million (2015: Share of Profit K280 million).
  • Loss after tax was K2, 912million (2015: Loss K987million).
  • Total assets increased by 15% from K8, 504 million to K9, 797 million largely on account of translation differences on equity accounted investees.
  • The Ndola Lime recapitalization project is undergoing 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.

ZCCM-IH Abridged to 31 March 2016.pdf

ZCCM-IH | Release of 2016 Annual report

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to share with you the performance of ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc (ZCCM-IH) as a Company and that of its investee companies during the financial year ended 31 March 2016.

As ZCCM-IH’s investment is largely in the mining sector, the Company experienced low to static growth owing to the challenges faced by the mining sector in general. The mining sector was faced with a significant energy deficit which affected production negatively and consequently led to a reduction in revenues. The situation was further compounded by low commodity prices particularly copper due to increased supply on the market and reduced demand mainly in high copper consumer countries such as China. As a result of the foregoing, investment in the mining sector was reduced and mainly concentrated on consolidation of already existing operations…

Outlook

Beyond these current challenges, the underlying drivers of growth in Sub-Saharan Africa that have been in play domestically in the region over the past decade most importantly, the much improved business environment generally continue to be in place, and favorable demographics are poised to support these drivers over the coming decades. These will anchor medium-term growth prospects…

Appreciation

I express sincere gratitude to my fellow Board members, the immediate past Board members, the Management and Staff of ZCCM-IH for their dedication and commitment during the past year. I again extend my gratitude to the investee companies for their efforts and contributions during the year.

ZCCM-IH | Cautionary announcement

Background

Shareholders of ZCCM Investment Holdings (“Shareholders”) (“ZCCM-IH”) will be aware that in February 2016, ZCCM undertook to subscribe for all shares not subscribed for by other Investrust Bank Plc (“Investrust”) shareholders in the Investrust Rights Offer (the “Rights Offer”). This resulted in ZCCM-IH’s shareholding in Investrust to increase from 10% to 48.6%. As a result, ZCCM-IH was required to proceed with a Mandatory Offer to all the other shareholders in Investrust in accordance with Rule 56 of the Third Schedule of the Securities
(Takeovers and Mergers) Rules, Statutory Instrument No 170 of 1993, (the “Takeovers Rules”), issued pursuant to the Securities Act, Chapter 354 of the Laws of Zambia (the “Securities Act”).

However, as provided for in the Takeovers Rules, ZCCM-IH opted to apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for a waiver to proceed with a Mandatory Offer which was granted by the SEC on 21 October 2016 on condition that ZCCM-IH will sell-down its shareholding in the Bank to below 35% by 21 October 2017.

Hitherto, ZCCM-IH has only managed to sell 3.2% and ZCCM-IH thus currently has a shareholding of 45.4% in the Bank.

Notification of Intention to Undertake a Mandatory Offer to Investrust Shareholders

ZCCM-IH has now resolved that it would immediately and prior to the expiration of the waiver period proceed to undertake a Mandatory Offer to all Minority Shareholders in Investrust and thus, on 18 May 2017, ZCCM-IH formally notified the Board of Investrust of its intentions to proceed with a Mandatory Offer to the Minority Shareholders of Investrust prior to the 21 October 2017 deadline.

ZCCM-IH is currently in discussions with Investrust on the process and timing of the Mandatory Offer and will provide further information once the discussions have been concluded.

Accordingly, and in the meantime, Shareholders are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the Company’s securities until a full announcement is made.
