KSK Power Ventur plc
Maiden interim results for the six months ended 30 September 2006
Introduction
KSK Power Ventur plc (AIM: KSK.L), the power project development company with
interests in multiple power plants across India, floated on the AIM market of
the London Stock Exchange in November 2006 raising GBP 30.9 million.
The Company today announces its maiden interim results for the six months ended
30 September 2006.
Corporate
In line with its strategy for growth, KSK is involved in working with major
international and Indian businesses and distribution companies to ensure that
they have access to dependable and cost effective sources of electrical power.
The addition of large power generating capacity is essential for achieving the
anticipated economic growth across the Indian continent and the Company
continues to undertake the necessary and extensive groundwork required to setup
multiple power plants and address the opportunities available to it, both in
India and overseas.
Operations Update
The process of power project development involves key activities such as the
identification of suitable development opportunities, the location of
appropriate fuel supply, securing necessary equity and debt financing
arrangements for the projects, undertaking ground work on the physical project
execution and negotiating power sales arrangements with corporate consumers.
Upon completion of these implementation stages, each project commences power
generation and energy supply. Since the company formation six projects have been
completed and of these five are under the management of KSK. The Company is
currently working on a number of projects with a generating capacity each of
between 40MW and 500MW with commissioning dates between 2008 and 2010. The
aggregate capacity of the Group pipeline under pursuit is now likely to exceed
3200 MW, much above the anticipated levels.
During the period under review, the 43 MW Arasmeta Captive power plant for
Lafarge India became operational. The Company is also expecting to commission
the 58 MW Sai Regency Power with power supplies to multiple Industrial customers
in the state of Tamil Nadu and the 43 MW Sitapuram Power with entire power
supplies to two cement production units of Ciments Francais in the state of
Andhra Pradesh during the second half of the current financial year
In addition, the 15 MW Avantika Hydro Sapthadhara hydro electric power plant in
the state of Orissa and the 135 MW Marudhar power plant in the state of
Rajasthan have secured in-principle sanctions for the entire debt financing and
agreements for disbursements of such debt financing is expected to be completed
during second half. In both of these projects, contracts for Engineering,
Procurement and Construction (EPC) have also been awarded to various third party
providers.
In the case of the 135 MW Marudhar power plant, letters of Intent (LOI) has been
received from multiple industrial power consumers for the entire power supply
capacity of the plant.
Financial Review
Further to the successful flotation on AIM in November 2006 and pursuant to the
scheme of reorganisation as outlined in the AIM admission document, KSK Power
Ventur plc (KSK) acquired 100% of the equity interest in KSK Energy Ventures Ltd
(KSK India) on 7 November 2006 (after the Company buyback of shares from
existing shareholders). Accordingly, no holding company relationship existed
between KSK & KSK India on the reporting date of 30 September 2006.
These interim results provide the financial position of KSK India as of 30
September 2006. Consolidated financial information on KSK India for the six
months period ended 30 September 2006 have been prepared under International
Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') for the purpose of reporting these
interim results.
The consolidated revenue of KSK India stood at USD 3.12 million almost entirely
comprised from revenues arising from power generation in the underlying SPV's
Against such revenue, the Company recorded a gross profit of USD 1.59 million
after costs of sales but before administrative, financing and depreciation
expenses, and a net loss of USD 1.3 million after all expenses including taxes.
This position primarily arose on some significant contracts falling due in the
second half of the Company's financial year and accruing to KSK from projects in
their development stage, significant administrative and financing costs
attributable to project setup being charged off against profits, and projects
becoming operational only part way through the period etc. This position is
essentially derived from the long gestation nature of power project development
activity. However, the Company is confident of achieving the financial
projections for the Company's full financial year and beyond.
Outlook
With the Government of India's economic growth projections for the country now
rising to more than 9% on a yearly basis from the previous 8%, the potential for
the Company's growth initiatives should be further enhanced.
Lafarge has confirmed its interest in favour of KSK for an expansion of the
current 43MW power plant in Arasmeta. This initiative in the same location has
reinforced the Company's strong performance in the captive power plant segment.
The Company anticipates that development activity on this expansion project
shall see further progress in the near future.
The Company is also pleased to report significant progress on other projects in
the pipeline, notably the first phase of a 2X135 MW power plant in Maharashtra
of Wardha power, based on the fuel supply agreement entered into with GMDC for
the supply of coal. The Company anticipates potential for further power plant
capacity in the state of Chattisgarh and has initiated the necessary development
work.
Continuing the Company's effort to secure fuel resources to support its multiple
power plants needs, the Company has identified additional fuel resource blocks,
recently notified by the Government of India in November 2006.
In addition to power plant opportunities using fossil fuel, the Company is also
pursuing renewable energy resources for its plants, the majority of which are
currently hydroelectric power plant projects. The Company is pleased to report
initial pre-development activity of hydroelectric projects in various states
across Northern and North-Eastern India and the neighbouring country of Nepal,
working alongside identified strategic partners and co-developers in these
regions.
The Board remain confident in the Group's growth prospects and in our ability to
meet expectations for the full year

NOTE B- EARNINGS PER SHARE
The basic earnings per share for six months ended September 30, 2006 has been
calculated using the net results attributable to shareholders of the Company as
the numerator. None of the dilutive shares relate to interest or similar expense
recognisable in profit or loss for six months ended September 30, 2006.
Calculation of basic and diluted EPS is as follows:
Particulars Half year ended
September 30,
2006
Profit attributable to shareholders of
KSK, for basic and dilutive(US$'000) (1,309)
Weighted average numbers Shares
outstanding during the year for Basic 297,739
Basic Earnings per share (US$) (not
annualised) (4.40)
Diluted Earnings per share (US$) (not
annualised) (4.40)
The only potentially dilutive shares are the optionally convertible cumulative
redeemable preference shares. These shares are anti -dilutive as they would
decrease the earnings/(loss) per share. There is, therefore no difference
between the basic earnings/(loss) per share and diluted earnings/(loss) per
share. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit
attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary
shares outstanding during the period adjusted for the effects of all potentially
dilutive shares.
