Newton Resources Ltd. announced that based on the preliminary review of unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2018, the board of directors of the Company announced that the Group is expected to record an increase by approximately 350% in its net loss for the Current Period as compared to that for the six months ended 30 June 2017. The major reasons for such increase include the possible impairment loss arising on the assets relating to the Group's Yanjiazhuang Mine, the increase in estimated possible payments accrued for the outstanding gabbro-diabase resources fee payable, the overall decrease in the Group's revenue, and the absence of write-back of over-accrual of interest and other costs in relation to a litigation that has been recognised in the Corresponding Prior Period.
