Financial information that has not been published before
The Board of Kopy Goldfields deems that the following new financial information could potentially be considered price sensitive. On page 19 in the Information Memorandum, under "Financial position and capital structure" the following can be read:
As of 30 September 2014 the Company's interest-bearing debt amounted to MSEK 3.0. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to MSEK 2.9, which means that there was an interest-bearing net debt of MSEK 0.1. Shareholder's equity, including retained losses, amounted to MSEK 112.8 on 30 September 2014, representing an equity ratio of 90.9 per cent. The change in Equity since the interim report on 30 June 2014 mainly relates to the accounting effects of the joint venture agreement for the Company's license Krasny which was signed in August 2014.
