So NPBT of around $US21mil against my estimate of $US27mil is accounted for by extra amortisation of around $2.7mil - they've definitely upped the rate here and that's OK as it means higher profits going forward. The other difference is in Admin costs which have increased from the figure I got from the last quarterly of $2.8mil to $6.56mil and disappointingly there is no explanation but an educated guess maybe that this is project evaluation costs in relation to their new Thailand venture that they've written off. The tax provided is not payable anytime soon as it appears as a defer tax liability in Non-Current Liabilities on the Balance Sheet. There is definitely an air of conservatism about these accounts that maybe is going too far.
