Rare Earths Global Limited
("REG" or the "Company")
Interim Results
For the period ended 30 June 2013
Rare Earths Global Limited (AIM: REG), a leading mining services
group focused on the extraction, separation, refinement and trading
of rare earth elements, oxides and other related products, is
pleased to announce its interim results for the period ended 30
June 2013.
Highlights
- Production on hold with revenue limited to RMB0.24million (H1 2012: RMB52.8million );
- Net loss RMB3.4million (H1 2012: 29.4million)
- Significant slowdown in the Chinese rare earth market due to the impact of new legislation;
- No production / export quota granted for 2013 but expected in late 2013/early 2014.
Commenting on the results, Simon Ong, Chief Executive of REG
said, "Trading for H1 2013 was exceptionally difficult as increased
regulation by the Chinese Government has restricted production and
created much uncertainty among all market participants. The Board's
prime focus is now to consider a number of options to help secure
the appropriate production licences and quotas as soon as possible
so we might return to normal trading."

Business Review
Trading in the rare earth industry in China continues to be
extremely difficult. As set out in the statement of our Annual
Results announced on 1 July 2013, the Board appointed consultants
to work with local and national government in order to secure
ongoing production quota's and provide guidance on the Ministry of
Industry and Information Technology ("MIIT") requirements. We
further announced that this would result in a material reduction in
revenues as the Sanxie plant would cease production. As expected,
our revenues are materially down as the rare earth industry in
China has slowed considerably whilst the Chinese Government begins
to implement its White Paper on Rare Earth and follow up on
statements made by MIIT. Furthermore, as previously announced, in
August 2012 the MIIT released a statement which recommended that
mixed rare earth mines in China will have to produce a minimum of
20,000 metric tonnes a year and smelters will have to ensure annual
output of 2,000 tonnes. In doing this the Chinese Government is
seeking to limit the number of market participants, prevent illegal
smuggling and help underpin falling rare earth prices.The Companies
rare earth smelting and separation plant has a maximum production
capacity of circa 800 tonnes and therefore does not met these new
criteria. In addition to the above, the new Chinese Government took
office in April creating even more uncertainty among market
participants as they await the appointment of the officials
responsible for the rare earth industry and ultimately what their
policy will entail.
The Board continues to focus on securing compliance with the
White Paper (i.e. increase production capacity at Sanxie to 3,000
tonnes+). In achieving this, as mentioned above, we have employed
third party consultants to assist expedite securing production and
export quotas for the separation plant at Sanxie In addition the
Board continue their dialogue with state owned businesses and
Chinese nationals who are well placed within the mining and
resources industry to assist the Board in achieving this strategy.
The Board also continues to monitor the international landscape as
aggressive pricing presents corporate opportunities in the global
rare earth market. We hope to update shareholders on our progress
with these discussions in due course.
Separation & Smelting
As further explained in our Annual Results and above, it has
become increasingly difficult to secure meaningful production
quotas in the rare earth industry in China. There continue to be
delays from the Government in providing production quotas for a
number of separation and smelting plants including REG despite our
plant at Sanxie being fully operational and all relevant
documentation having been filed with the authorities. As the
production quota has still yet to be granted for 2013 this has
meant that although the plant is operational no production is
taking place as we await the regulatory approval which is expected
in late 2013/early 2014.
Mining Services and Trading Divisions
As a result of the above many of the operating rare earth mines
in China have ceased production until official quota's have been
released. This has meant that although the Company's mining
services division retains its agreements with its ongoing partners
these have been put on hold as many asset owners are experiencing
similar issues to the Company in achieving production quota's. In
addition, as no export quota has been granted in 2013 the Company
has been unable to make use of its trading licence during the
period under review.
Outlook
In the short term the Company has no option but to continue to
aggressively pursue its objectives in the methods as set out above
and whilst managing its cost base as prudently as possible. The
second half of 2013 will see trading on the same level as the first
half until production quotas and licences are secured. The Board
remain optimistic for the long term outlook for the rare earth
industry, especially for heavy rare earths, as demand continues to
rise both in China and internationally. We look forward to updating
shareholders on our progress in securing the relevant licences and
quota's and any third party agreements in due course.
Financial Review
Revenues for the six months ended 30 June 2013 were RMB0.24
million, as compared to RMB52.8 million for the six months ended 30
June 2012, reflecting a decrease of 99.5%. Gross losses amounted to
RMB1.02 million (H1 2012: gross profit of RMB11.3 million). The
decrease reflected the deteriorating operating environment in the
rare earth industry as outlined above. Net loss for the six months
ended 30 June 2013 improved 88.3% to RMB3.4 million (H1 2012: Net
loss of RMB29.4 million).
Total operating expenses for the six months ended 30 June 2013
decreased to RMB8.7 million (H1 2012: RMB36 million).
Administrative expenses decreased to RMB3.9 million as compared to
RMB12.1million for the period ended 30 June 2012. Share based
payment expenses were RMB4.7million for current period as compared
to RMB23.1 million for the same comparative period last year.
In period under review, Mr. Tong Man Tak, a shareholder of the
Company granted an extension to the interest- free amount due to
him to 31 March 2015. As a result of the modification of the
agreement, RMB7.2million was recoginsed as interest income for the
period ended 30 June 2013.
Decrease in the Company's net basic and diluted losses per share
for the six months ended 30 June 2013 of RMB5.1 cents as compared
to RMB49 cents basic and diluted losses per share for the six
months ended 30 June 2012.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the SIX months ended 30 JUNE 2013
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Rare Earths Global Limited (the "Company") is an exempted
company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability
on 8 February 2012. The Company's registered address is Cricket
Square, Hutchins Drive, P.O. Box 2681, Grand Cayman KY1-1111,
Cayman Island. The Company's shares were traded on the AIM Market
of the London Stock Exchange Plc.
The Company together with its subsidiaries (collectively
referred to as the "Group") is principally engaged in the
production, separation and refining of rare earth products and
provisions of mining management services.
This condensed consolidated interim financial information has
not been audited.
2. THE REORGANISATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION
The reorganisation
Rare Earths Global Limited (the "Company") was incorporated in
the Cayman Islands on 8 February 2012. In preparation for the
listing of the Company's shares on the London Stock Exchange's
market for smaller and growing companies ("AIM") in March 2012, the
Group executed the following restructuring transaction (the
"Restructuring"). The Company became the holding company of
Dressport Limited ("Dressport") and its subsidiaries pursuant to a
share exchange agreement relating to the sale and purchase of
shares in Dressport dated 7 March 2012 (the "Share Exchange
Agreement"). The Company acquired the entire equity interest in
Dressport from its shareholders by means of share exchange whereby
60,994,790 ordinary shares of the Company were issued to the
shareholders of Dressport, at par credited as fully paid, in
exchange for all the outstanding ordinary shares (50,829) of
Dressport. The share exchange was conducted with a ratio of 1,200
shares of the Company to one share of Dressport on a pro-rata
basis. Thereafter, the Company has become the holding company of
Dressport and its subsidiaries.
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been
prepared using the principles of the merger accounting involving
Dressport and its subsidiaries, as if the group structure under the
Restructuring have been in existence since their respective dates
of incorporation.
The shares of the Company were listed on AIM with effect from 30
March 2012.
Basis of Preparation
This interim report, which incorporates the financial
information of the Company has been prepared on the historical cost
basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at
fair values, as appropriate; using accounting policies which are
consistent with those set out in the Company's consolidated
financial statement for the year ended 31 December 2012 except for
adoption of new standards and interpretations effective 1 January
2013 as described in note 3 below
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are
presented on a condensed basis as permitted by IAS 34 'Interim
Financial Reporting' and therefore do not include all disclosures
that would otherwise be required in a full set of financial
statements and should be read in conjunction with the 2012 annual
consolidated financial statements .
This interim financial information for the six months ended 30
June 2013, was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and thereby
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by
the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"); and was
approved by the Board of Directors on 25 September 2013.

The adoption of these new and revised IFRSs had no significant

4. REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION
IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis
of internal reports about components of the Group that are
regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM")
of the Group to allocate resources to the segments to assess their
performance.
The Group determines its operating segments based on the report
reviewed by the directors of the Group, who are also the CODM, to
make strategic decisions.
Information reported to the Group's CODM for the purposes of
resource allocation and performance assessment focuses specifically
on the separation and sales rare earth products, the mining
management services, and the trading of rare earth products.
Accordingly, the Group categorizes its business into three
operating segments, namely (i) separation and sales of rare earth
products; (ii) mining management services; and (iii) trading of
rare earth product
Separation of rare earth products - production and sales of rare
earth products .
Mining management services - provides mining management
servicesand technical supportto PRC rare earth mining companies and
factories in the PRC.
Trading of rare earths products - trading of rare earth products
in the PRC and overseas.
The Group's CODM make decisions according to the operating
results of each segment.
Information of segment assets and liabilities is not part of the
regular reports provided to the Group's CODM for the purpose of
resources allocation and performance assessment. Accordingly, only
segment results are presented.
Segment result represents the gross profit earned by each
segment based on internal management reports prepared in accordance
with accounting policies similar to the accounting rules and
financial regulations applicable to enterprises in the PRC, without
allocation of other income, changes in fair values of financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss, selling and
distribution costs, administrative expenses and finance costs. This
is the measure reported to the chief operating decision makers for
the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment
performance.
