Lonmin (LMI) - Covenant checks relaxed

Lonmin’s May 2017 interim results need a re-read as they have Tangible Net Worth covenants which are apparently mainly impacted by end-period South African Rand to US dollar exchange rates and Platinum Group Metals prices. One would have thought they would have had more relation to profitability and how the movements in that and the currency impacted shareholders funds.
