CHAI RMAN’S 
LETTE R   

Dear Shareholder 

There have been key developments this year in BPH investees Advent Energy Ltd and Cortical Dynamics. 
In January 2020 Advent submitted to the National Offshore Petroleum Titles Administrator (NOPTA) an 
application to enable the drilling of the Baleen drill target in the PEP11 permit offshore NSW. Advent, through 
its subsidiary Asset Energy Pty Ltd, holds an 85% interest in PEP11. Bounty Oil and Gas NL (Bounty) holds the 
remaining 15% in the Joint Venture.

 PEP 11 covers 4,576 sq. km of the offshore Sydney Basin immediately adjacent to the largest gas market in 
Australia and is a high impact exploration project. PEP11 remains one of the most significant untested gas plays 
in Australia. Gas has now become a key input into Australia’s future economic growth.

PEP 11 is a substantial offshore exploration area with large scale structuring and potentially multi-Trillion cubic 
feet (Tcf) gas charged Permo-Triassic reservoirs located less than 50km from the Sydney-Wollongong-Newcastle 
greater metropolitan area and gas pipeline network.

Heightening the prospectivity and critical positioning of PEP11, the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) 
has warned that the developed gas reserves in eastern and south-eastern Australia can only meet forecast 
demand for a short period of time. The supply of gas into NSW has historically been from gas fields in the Bass 
Strait and Cooper Basin in South Australia. These gas reserves are declining.

The 2020 Gas Statement of Opportunities (GSOO) from AEMO forecasts demand and uses information from gas 
producers about reserves and forecast production to project the supply-demand balance and potential gaps for 
eastern and south-eastern Australian gas markets to 2039. There is continuing uncertainty about the longer-term 
gas supply outlook. AEMO has warned about potential supply shortages emerging on the east coast within five 
years, particularly in the southern states. 

The gas supply crisis on the east coast of Australia has created a significant market opportunity to raise funding 
and drill with the objective of developing the PEP11 project.

In August 2020 the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) released an update report 
confirming that the gas prices offered over late 2019 to early 2020 were in the $8–11/GJ range.

Subject to validation of gas resource these circumstances create an excellent opportunity to develop the PEP11 
project into the existing NSW gas pipeline network.

The PEP11 Joint Venture has reviewed the work program and now proposes to proceed with the drilling of a 
well at Baleen subject to approvals from NOPTA and other regulatory authorities and financing and has now 
made application to NOPTA to change the current permit conditions to proceed with the drilling.

The current permit expiry date is in March 2021. The application to NOPTA includes the extension of the permit 
title for up to two years to enable the drilling and includes an application for the removal of the requirement for 
a 500 sq. km 3D seismic program. 

1111

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

HEALTH  TECHNOLOGY  RESOURCES 

NOPTA has confirmed that the application is now in the final decision phase. 

The drilling target at Baleen at a depth of 2150 metres subsea has been identified in a review of previous seismic 
data which suggest an extrapolated 6000 acre (24.3 km2) seismic amplitude anomaly area at that drilling target. 
The Marlin report on this drilling target noted previous 2D seismic data showed that the Permian aged section 
of the Bowen Basin has producing conventional gas fields at a similar time and depth to PEP11 at the Triassic/
Permian age boundary. Advent completed a 200-line km 2D seismic survey in PEP11 as a precursor to drilling of 
this target. 

The Company is also proposing with its Joint Venture partner Bounty, to use the drilling program at Baleen to 
investigate the potential for CCS - Carbon Capture and Storage (geo-sequestration of CO2 emissions) in PEP11. 
CCS can capture CO2 fossil fuel emissions.Both the International Energy agency and the Intergovernmental 
Panel on Climate change believe that CCS can play an important role in helping to meet global emission 
reduction targets. CCS is  part of a suit of solutions with the potential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and 
help address climate change. The Sydney Basin is a major contributor to Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions 
and contributes up to  34% of the total national emissions

Independent Government published research has indicated at least 2 TCF(Trillion Cubic Ft)  of CO2 storage may 
be feasible in the offshore Sydney Basin.

Significant further positive developments have occurred in Cortical Dynamics. BPH is the largest shareholder 
in Cortical. Cortical’s industry disruptive brain function monitor competitive advantage has been recognised 
by leading world experts in anesthesia.  Cortical’s technology has a versatility that goes beyond depth of 
anaesthesia. 

There are considerable opportunities offered by subsequent expansion of the company’s core technology 
through developing the product to carry out additional functions in other EEG based markets including neuro-
diagnostics of changes in brain and memory functions to provide early warning of degenerative diseases, pain 
response and tranquiliser monitoring for trauma patients in intensive care units, as well as  drug discovery, drug 
evaluation and the brain computer Interface (BCI) market. The measurement of pain is a massive global market. 

In the March 2020 quarter it was announced that the Company had secured an investment of $250,000 from 
IntuitiveX (“IX”) and Korean based VC investor Gentium Partners. IX is a Seattle-based life science consulting firm 
and incubator Cortical has now begun the FDA 510K filing process for the brain anesthesia response monitor 
(BARM) in the USA assisted by its strategic investor IX.

In a truly exciting development Cortical has now entered into a non-exclusive Licence and Co-operation 
Agreement with Philips Healthcare North America Corp (Philips), which will enable Cortical to interface its BARM 
into the Philips IntelliVue and Patient Information Center (PIC iX) Monitoring Systems using the IntelliBridge 
integration product line. The Phillips system is used in nearly 60 % of the world’s operating theatres. 

These important developments create a significant growth pathway in the coming year. Our strong share price 
rise in the last six months has reflected these excellent strategic initiatives.

Yours Sincerely 

David Breeze   
Chairman

Advent Energy Ltd (“Advent”), BPH 22.3% 

Advent Energy Ltd is an unlisted oil and gas 
exploration and development company with 
onshore and offshore exploration and near-term 
development assets around Australia. Advent’s assets 
include PEP11 (85%) in the offshore Sydney Basin 
and RL1 (100%) in the onshore Bonaparte Basin in 
the Northern territory.

PEP 11 Oil and Gas Permit

Advent, through wholly owned subsidiary Asset 
Energy Pty Ltd, holds 85% of Petroleum Exploration 
Permit PEP 11 – an exploration permit prospective 
for natural gas located in the Offshore Sydney Basin. 

PEP 11 is a significant offshore exploration area with 
large scale structuring and potentially multi-Trillion 
cubic feet (Tcf) gas charged Permo-Triassic reservoirs. 
Mapped prospects and leads within the Offshore 
Sydney Basin are generally located less than 50km 
from the Sydney-Wollongong-Newcastle greater 
metropolitan area and gas pipeline network. 

The offshore Sydney Basin has been lightly explored 
to date, including a multi-vintage 2D seismic 
data coverage and a single exploration well, New 
Seaclem-1 (2010). Its position as the only petroleum 
title offshore New South Wales provides a significant 
opportunity should natural gas be discovered in 
commercial quantities in this petroleum title. It lies 
adjacent to the Sydney-Newcastle region and the 
existing natural gas network servicing the east coast 
gas market. The total P50 Prospective Resource 
calculated for the PEP11 prospect inventory is 5.9 
Tcf with a net 5 Tcf to Advent Energy (85%WI). The 
two largest prospects in the inventory are Fish and 
Baleen.

Advent has previously interpreted significant 
seismically indicated gas features in PEP11.  Key 
indicators of hydrocarbon accumulation features 

have been interpreted following review of the 2004 
seismic data (reprocessed in 2010).  The seismic 
features include apparent Hydrocarbon Related 
Diagenetic Zones (HRDZ), Amplitude Versus Offset 
(AVO) anomalies and potential flat spots.  

In addition, a geochemical report has provided 
support for a potential exploration well in PEP11. The 
report reviewed the hydrocarbon analysis performed 
on sediment samples obtained in PEP11 during 
2010. The 2010 geochemical investigation utilised 
a proprietary commercial hydrocarbon adsorption 
and laboratory analysis technique to assess the levels 
of naturally occurring hydrocarbons in the seabed 
sediment samples. 

The report supports that the Baleen prospect 
appears best for hydrocarbon influence relative to 
background samples. In addition, the report found 
that the Baleen prospect appears to hold a higher 
probability of success than other prospects. 

Importantly, “a recent review of more than 850 
wildcat wells – all drilled after geochemical surveys – 
finds that 79% of wells drilled in positive anomalies 
resulted in commercial oil and gas discoveries.” 
(Surface geochemical exploration for oil and gas: 
New life for an old technology, D. Schumacher, 2000, 
The Leading Edge)

Advent has demonstrated considerable gas 
generation and migration within PEP11, with the 
mapped prospects and leads highly prospective for 
the discovery of gas.

Advent Energy has conducted a focused seismic 
campaign around a key drilling prospect in PEP11 
at Baleen, in the offshore Sydney Basin. The high 
resolution 2D seismic survey covering approximately 
200-line km was performed to assist in the drilling of 
the Baleen target approximately 30 km south east of 
Newcastle, New South Wales. A drilling target on the 
Baleen prospect at a depth of 2150 metres subsea 
has been identified in a review of previous seismic 
data. Intersecting 2D lines suggest an extrapolated 
6000 acre (24.3 km2) seismic amplitude anomaly 
area at that drilling target. The report on this drilling 
target noted previous 2D seismic data showed that 
the Permian aged section of the Bowen Basin has 
producing conventional gas fields at a similar time 
and depth to PEP11 at the Triassic/Permian age 
boundary.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS  BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

Advent’s prior presentation ‘Strategic Summary: 
Tactics to Success ‘ confirmed the strategy of 
“Complete current 2D seismic commitment to 
deliver shallow hazard survey work …to deliver ‘drill 
ready’ gas prospect ....for early drilling ,capturing 
near-term rig availability off Australia’s coast.” 

The high resolution 2D seismic data over the 
Baleen prospect designed to evaluate (amongst 
other things) shallow geohazard indications 
including shallow gas accumulations that can affect 
future potential drilling operations. It is a drilling 
prerequisite that a site survey is made prior to drilling 
at the Baleen location. On 31 December 2018 MEC 
announced that there were “no ‘seismically defined 
shallow gas hazards “at the proposed well location 
on the Baleen Prospect.

Onshore Bonaparte Basin

Advent Energy Ltd (“Advent”), through wholly owned 
subsidiary Onshore Energy Pty Ltd, holds 100% of 
RL 1 in the onshore Bonaparte Basin in northern 
Australia.  The Bonaparte Basin is a highly prospective 
petroliferous basin, with significant reserves of oil and 
gas. Most of the basin is located offshore, covering 
250,000 square kilometres, compared to just over 
20,000 square kilometres onshore.

In the Northern Territory, Advent holds Retention 
Licence RL1 (166 square kilometres in area), which 
covers the Weaber Gas Field, originally discovered 
in 1985. Advent has previously advised that the 2C 
Contingent Resources for the Weaber Gas Field in 

RL1 are 11.5 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas 
following an independent audit by RISC. Significant 
upside 3C Contingent Resources of 45.8 Bcf have 
also been assessed by RISC.

The current rapid development of the Kununurra region 
in northern Western Australia, including the Ord River 
Irrigation Area phase 2, the township of Kununurra, 
and numerous regional resource projects provides 
an exceptional opportunity for Advent to potentially 
develop its nearby gas resources. Market studies have 
identified a current market demand of up to 30.8 TJ per 
day of power generation capacity across the Kimberley 
region that could potentially be supplied by Advent 
Energy’s conventional gas project RL1.

Unconventional Resources within RL1

The prospectivity of the Bonaparte Basin is evident 
from the known oil and gas fields in both the 
offshore and onshore portions of the basin. Advent 
has identified significant shale areas in RL1.

Cortical Dynamics Ltd (“Cortical”), BPH 16.1%

Cortical is an Australian based medical device 
technology company that has developed an industry 
disruptive brain function monitor independently 
described as “a paradigm busting technology from 
an Australian based device house that really gives a 
significant advantage in this space”. Its competitive 
advantage has been recognised by leading world 
experts in anesthesia.  Cortical has received both TGA 
approval and the CE mark and has now commenced 
its sales campaign. 

44

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

The core product, the Brain Anaesthesia Response 
Monitor (BARM), was developed to better detect 
the effect of anaesthetic agents on brain activity, 
aiding anaesthetists in keeping patients optimally 
anaesthetised.  The product is focused on integrated 
distribution with the leading global brands in 
operation theatre monitoring equipment.

The approach used is fundamentally different from 
all other devices currently available in the market in 
that its underlying algorithm produces EEG indexes 
which are directly related to the physiological state 
of the patient’s brain.  Such monitoring is gaining 
significant use during surgery, however even with the 
use of EEG monitors, it is not uncommon for there 
to be a critical imbalance between the patient’s 
anaesthetic requirements and the anaesthetic drugs 
administered.  While a number of EEG monitors 
are commercially available, one that is reliably able 
to quantify the patient’s anaesthetic state is still 
desperately needed. 

To date, all of the existing EEG based depth of 
anaesthesia (“D o A”) monitors operate in the context 
of a number of well documented limitations: (i) 
inability to monitor the analgesic effects; and (ii) 
reliably measure certain hypnotic agents.
The above limitations highlight the inadequacies in 
current EEG based depth of anaesthesia monitors, 
particularly given surgical anaesthesia requires both 
hypnotic and analgesic agents (and muscle relaxants).  

The global brain monitoring market is poised to grow 
to reach $1.6 billion by 2020.  Around 312 million 
major surgical procedures requiring anaesthesia are 
undertaken every year worldwide (WHO 2012.) The 
pain monitoring market is valued at over $8.6 billion 
per annum by 2022. (www.grandviewresearch.com/
industry-analysis/pain-management-devices-market- 
April 2016).

Initial marketing will focus on Total Intravenous 
Anaesthesia (TIVA), a method of inducing and 
maintaining general anaesthesia without the use of 
any inhalation agent. This is becoming more widely 
accepted, particularly in Europe.  Approximately 29 
million major general surgery general anaesthesias 
are conducted in the European Union each year, 
of which 55% (circa 16 million) are balanced 
anaesthesia (using a combination of intravenous 
agents such as propofol and volatile gases) and 20% 
are total intravenous anaesthesia using propofol. This 

creates a market opportunity of between $83m to 
$229m to Cortical in the European Union alone.

“The use of EEG-based depth of anaesthesia 
monitors has been recommended in patients 
receiving total intravenous anaesthesia because it 
is cost effective and because it is not possible to 
measure end-tidal anaesthetic concentration in this 
group” (source: nice.org.uk).

Cortical’s technology has a versatility that goes 
beyond depth of anaesthesia and may be applied to 
other EEG based markets, such as neuro-diagnostic, 
drug discovery, drug evaluation and the emerging 
Brain computer Interface (BCI) market.  

There are considerable opportunities offered by 
subsequent expansion of the company’s core 
technology through developing the product to carry 
out additional functions including neuro-diagnostics 
of changes in brain and memory functions to 
provide early warning of degenerative diseases, pain 
response and tranquiliser monitoring for trauma 
patients in intensive care units. 

While the current array of bedside monitoring and 
imaging systems in the critical care environment 
has led to dramatic reductions in mortality, they 
do not as yet involve the continuous monitoring of 
brain function.  This is widely acknowledged to be a 
major problem, as the care and management of the 
critically ill patient is ultimately all about the brain.

The continuous monitoring of a patients’ brain 
state is not only necessary to diagnose and manage 
acute deteriorations in brain function that may have 
long lasting effects, but also to aid in the optimal 
administration of sedation and analgesia.  Sedation 
and analgesia in the critically ill patient play a pivotal 
role in their care and is necessary to minimize 
patient distress and agitation, being essential to 
facilitate the utility of a wide variety of life support 
equipment and procedures, the most important of 
which is mechanical ventilation. 

Study after study has shown that too deep sedation 
increases the time on mechanical ventilation, which 
leads to increases in mortality, the incidence of 
complications and treatment costs. Given these 
acknowledged advantages to brain function 
monitoring in the ICU why then is continuous 
monitoring of brain function not currently available?  

55

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

HEALTH  TECHNOLOGY  RESOURCES 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS  BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

There are two main reasons for this:

1.  Firstly, the size and the complexity of 

configuration of most approaches to monitoring 
brain function are simply not capable of being 
adapted for use in the busy and crowded ICU 
environment.  

2.  Secondly, in those monitoring approaches that 
could be potentially deployed at the bedside, 
they depend on physiologically uncertain 
principles of operation that are not relevant, or 
meaningfully interpretable, in the context of the 
critically ill patient.

Cortical aims to address both these limitations 
by the further development and trialling of 
the novel bedside and remotely deployable 
Australian manufactured and designed, 
electroencephalographically based (EEG-based), 
BARM system.  The BARM is configured to efficiently 
image and display complex information related to 
the clinically relevant state of the brain. 

The BARM is not only expected to address the 
shortcomings of these EEG-based DoA approaches, 
and thus realise their documented promise, but to 
extend the functionality of bedside EEG monitoring 
to the objective monitoring of pain, a measure 
also vital to the management of the sedated 
mechanically ventilated critically ill patient. 

In Australia between 2015 and 2016 there were 
approximately 149,000 admissions to ICU of which 
48,000 required continuous ventilatory support 
(CVS) and thus required sedation, pain relief and 
who would have potentially benefited from an 
instrumental approach to imaging brain activity. 
Given that the average patient time on CVS was 
96 hours in Australia, this equates to potentially 
4.5 million hours of instrumental monitoring and 
approximately a quantity of 188,000 of 24-hour 
single patient-use sensors to image brain activity. In 
the USA, based on 1.5 million ICU patients (30% CVS) 
requiring CVS, and given that the first episode of an 
average patient time on CVS is 96 hours, this equates 
to 144 million hours of instrumental monitoring and 
approximately 6 million of 24-hour single patient use 
sensors to image brain activity.  For the European 

Union (EU), based on similar statistics to USA, there 
would be an estimated 5 million single patient use 
sensors, used per annum.  Total market opportunity 
per annum of the US, Western Europe and Australian 
markets only, would be approximately 11.188 million 
24-hour single-use patient sensors per annum, 
which with an average cost of $AU20 per single 
patient use sensor, would represent a total revenue 
stream conservatively estimated to be of the order of 
$AU223.8 million per annum.

The BARM system is protected by five patent families 
in multiple jurisdictions worldwide consisting of 
22 granted patents.  Cortical will continue to drive 
the development of the BAR monitor, maintain its 
intellectual property and concentrate on obtaining 
regulatory approval for the BAR monitor. 

Cortical has now commenced preparations for a 
sales program of the device in Europe, Australia, 
New Zealand and further development is also 
underway in Korea and Singapore.   A USA based 
distributorship is expected to follow once Cortical 
attains the FDA certification. 

Cortical’s Brain Anesthesia Response Monitor 
(‘BARM”) has now been used in further successful 
trials at Strathfield Private Hospital in Sydney.  
Strathfield is part of the Ramsay private hospital 
group. 

Cortical announced a number of developments 
during the period which included:-  

- 

In July 2019 it was announced that the Company 
was trialling the Brain Anaesthesia Response 
Monitor (“BARM”) at Southampton University 
Hospital in the UK. 

-  On 29 September 2019 Globaluck, the 

Company’s South Korean exclusive distributor of 
the BARM, confirmed it has now received Korean 
KGMP certification.  This regulatory milestone, 
the KGMP certificate of approval for its BARM 
(Class II Medical Device) from the Korea Good 
Manufacturing Practice (KGMP) followed an 
independent Korean audit of Cortical’s facility 
in Scoresby, Victoria during July 2019. KGMP

certification is required by the Korean Ministry of 
Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) before placement 
of Class II, III, and IV medical devices on the South 
Korean market.

Patagonia Genetics Pty Ltd.

On 21 August 2019 the Company announced that 
it intended  to pursue a complementary strategy 
of making an investment (or investments) in the 
medical cannabis sector, as it is considered that an 
investment of this nature is in line with its investee 
company strategy and, in particular, its biomedical 
business. The medical cannabis sector is showing 
significant growth with current developments 
boosting the sectors viability including the move to 
legalise cannabis in Canada and the announcement 
by the UK Government to legalise medical cannabis. 

On 2 September 2019 BPH announced it had 
agreed to acquire an initial investment of 10% (with 
the option to increase its percentage to 49%) in 
Patagonia Genetics Pty Ltd (“PG Aust”), the entity 
that owns a 100% interest in Patagonia Genetics SPA 
(“PG”), a Chilean entity.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS  BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

The key terms were: 

(a)  BPH agreed to acquire a total 10% interest in PG 

Aust in consideration for a subscription amount 
of $50,000 in cash into the entity and the issue 
of 150,000,000 BPH shares and payment of 
$50,000 by equal instalments over 6 months to 
the shareholders of PG Aust (“T1 transaction”). 
The amount of capital issued by BPH for the 
consideration represents approximately 5.5% of 
the capital of BPH. The 150,000,000 BPH shares 
were issued on 30 August 2019 and the cash 
consideration has been paid in full ; and 
(b) BPH is granted the option to acquire a total 

shareholding of 49% in PG Aust (that is, an 
additional 39% when added to the original 
acquisition of a 10% interest) in consideration for 
a subscription amount of $700,000 into the entity 
and the issue of 450,000,000 shares in the capital 
of BPH (“T2 transaction”). 

The T2 transaction was to be conditional on 
appropriate due diligence and shareholder approval. 
There was no requirement for shareholder approval 
for the T1 transaction as the consideration was met 
from the current cash position and the shares issued 
from the existing 15% ASX Listing Rule 7.1 capacity 
of BPH. The option was not initiated. 

On 17 September 2019 the Company announced 
that PG had purchased its first 1,300ltrs of 
Wonderland Agronutrients products to send 
samples to major licensed producers and grow 
shops internationally. PG has secured the exclusive 
worldwide distribution rights (excluding Chile & 
Argentina) to Chile’s leading cannabis fertilizer and

requirements could not be met. The Company is 
continuing to evaluate new opportunities.

Molecular Discovery Systems Limited, BPH 20%

Molecular Discovery Systems Limited (“MDSystems”), 
launched in 2006 and spun off from BPH in 2010, is 
an associate of BPH. MDSystems has been working 
with the Molecular Cancer Research Group at 
the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research to 
validate HLS5 as a novel tumour suppressor gene, 
particularly for liver cancer.

The Molecular Cancer Research Group has 
developed a pre-clinical model of liver cancer where 
the expression of HLS5 is ablated i.e. it mimics, in 
part, patients that have low HLS5 (TRIM35) and 
develop liver cancer. Research conducted at the 
Perkins Institute has shown that HLS5 has significant 
tumour suppressor properties. The Perkins findings 
are supported by the two independent peer 
reviewed scientific publications, identifying a role 
for HLS5 in cancer, demonstrating that the loss 
of HLS5 expression may be a critical event in the 
development and progression of liver cancer.

The publications — a collaboration between Fudan 
University Shanghai Cancer Centre and other 
Chinese Institutes, including Shanghai Cancer 
Institute, Liver Cancer Institute, Second Military 
Medical University and Qi Dong Liver Cancer Institute 
—focused on identifying the role of HLS5 in liver

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

cancer. The first article demonstrated that HLS5 
binds a key enzyme involved in the production of 
energy for cancer cells (Pyruvate Kinase isoform 
M2 (PKM2)). They showed that HLS5 binds PKM2 
to form a complex which inhibits the activation of 
PKM2. The formation of this HLS5/PKM2 complex 
ultimately limits the cancer cell’s means of energy 
production and its ability to proliferate. In the second 
publication the expression levels of HLS5 and PKM2 
were assessed for potential use as a prognostic 
marker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) - (liver 
cancer) .The study analysed liver samples of 688 
patients who had HCC. The study found that patients 
who were positive for PKM2 expression and negative 
for HLS5 expression had poorer overall survival and 
shorter time to recurrence. Taken together, the 
findings of both papers further support the research 
into HLS5 by MDS and the Harry Perkins Institute of 
Medical Research.

Significant Changes in State Of Affairs

• 

In August 2019 the Company entered into a Deed 
of Settlement and Release (“Deed”) between BPH 
Energy Limited (BPH”), MEC Resources Limited 
(“MEC”), Grandbridge Limited, Trandcorp and 
Mr David Breeze and other relevant parties. As 
part of the settlement it was agreed that Messrs 
Matthew Battrick and Tobias Foster would 
appoint Messrs Steven James, Tony Huston and 
Thomas Fontaine as directors of Advent, and 
that Messrs Matthew Battrick and Tobias Foster 
would then resign from the Board of Advent. The 
incoming directors have since confirmed and 
acknowledged Mr David Breeze as a duly elected 
director of Advent. 

The other key terms of the settlement are as follows: 

-  MEC provided an irrevocable proxy to BPH on the 
voting rights attaching to 100% of the shares held 
by MEC in Advent at any meeting of shareholders 
of the Company up to 23 July 2021.

-  Until 23 July 2021, MEC agrees to not directly or 
indirectly interfere with the board composition 
and/or management of Advent.

-  For a period of one year commencing from 6 
August 2019 MEC must not sell or otherwise 
dispose of any shares it holds in Advent, other 
than by an in-specie distribution to MEC if 
requested in writing to do so by Advent. If notice 

is given, MEC must do all that is required to effect 
and support the In-Specie Distribution. 
-  The loans owed by Advent to MEC will be 

recoverable by MEC only by the following means 
and only in the following circumstances: 

  One month prior to the scheduled 

commencement date for the drilling of a well 
within the PEP 11 Permit Area, Advent will 
issue to MEC ordinary shares to the face value 
of the debt calculated at 80% of (a) the volume-
weighted average price of Advent shares over the 
5 days trading immediately prior to that date; or 
(b) if as at that date Advent shares are not listed 
on any securities exchange, the price at which 
ordinary shares in Advent were last issued.

•  On 28 September 2018, MEC announced 

the signing of a binding term sheet for the 
majority sale of Onshore Energy Pty Ltd (“OE”) 
to Bonaparte Petroleum Pty Ltd (“BP”). This 
agreement was terminated on 10 August 2019.

•  Onshore Energy (“Onshore”) made an application 

for suspension and extension of the permit 
conditions in EP386 which was not accepted 
by the Department (DMIRS). Onshore sought 
a review of the decision by the Minister of 
Resources who responded setting out a course of 
action in relation to that decision which Onshore 
is following. Onshore Energy Pty Ltd will be 
lodging an appeal against this decision with the 
State Administrative Tribunal (SAT).

•  The conditional farmin agreement to PEP11 

between Asset Energy Pty Ltd and RL Energy Pty 
Ltd was registered as a dealing by the National 
Offshore Petroleum Titles Administrator in 
September 2018. This registration was a condition 
precedent to the farmin agreement. This farmin 
agreement was terminated on 17 September 
2019.

•  On 17 September 2019 BPH announced that 

Advent has now terminated by mutual consent 
the RL Energy Joint Venture Agreement for the 
PEP11 permit. As a result Advent, through wholly 
owned subsidiary Asset Energy Pty Ltd, now holds 
an 85% interest and is operator of the permit 
(and RL Energy has no further interest). Bounty 
Oil and Gas NL (ASX: BUY) holds the remaining 
15%.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS  BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

•  Advent Energy Ltd has submitted to the National 
Offshore Petroleum Titles Administrator (NOPTA) 
an application to enable the drilling of the Baleen 
drill target in the PEP11 permit offshore NSW. 
The PEP11 Joint Venture has reviewed the work 
program and now proposes to proceed with the 
drilling of a well at Baleen subject to approvals 
from NOPTA and other regulatory authorities 
and financing and has now made application to 
NOPTA to change the current Permit conditions. 
The current permit expiry date is in March 2021.
The application to NOPTA includes the extension 
of the permit title for up to two years to enable 
the drilling and includes an application for the 
removal of the requirement for a 500 sq. km 3D 
seismic program. NOPTA has confirmed that this 
application is now in the final decision phase.

•  On 19 September 2019 BPH announced Advent 
has been granted a renewal of Retention Licence 
1 (RL1) in the Northern Territory by the NT 
Department of Primary Industry and Resources 
for a five-year term concluding July 2023. Advent, 
through its wholly owned subsidiary Onshore 
Energy Pty Ltd, holds a 100 % interest in RL1 and 
is operator of the Retention Licence.

• 

In November 2019 it became apparent that 
the Company’s previous management, who 
were also the management of MEC prior to the 
Deed entered into in August 2019 between the 
Company and other relevant parties, had lodged 
a Research and Development Tax Incentive claim 
for the year ending 30 June 2018 in the name 
of MEC in respect of work performed on the 
PEP 11 permit, the majority of which costs had 
been borne by Advent. MEC owned only 53% of 
Advent. 

  MEC noted in their December 2018 quarterly 

Appendix 4C cash flow report lodged with ASX 
on 31 January 2019 that they had been “granted 
a Research and Development (“R & D”) incentive 
in the quarter ended 31 December 2018 after 
recent seismic activities within PEP 11. An 
amount of $384k was received under the scheme 

in Q2”. Subsequent to the Deed the Company’s 
new management questioned why the R & D 
claim not been submitted in the name of Advent. 
As a result of these enquiries the $728,563 costs 
incurred by Advent in respect of the PEP 11 June 
2018 R & D claim, together with $68,408 costs 
in respect of a proposed June 2019 R & D claim 
by MEC, have been recharged to MEC and are 
showing as a current asset of the Company at 30 
June 2020.  The Company has commenced legal 
action to recover amounts due from MEC.

The legality of MEC’s conversion of $532,500 of debt 
into Company shares in March 2019 at a time when, 
given the R & D recharges that should have been 
booked, potentially no such convertible debt existed, 
is currently under review. 

• 

In February 2020 the Company converted a 
receivable of $162,286 into 3,251,320 shares in 
Advent at a conversion price of $0.05 per share in 
accordance with shareholder approval received 
by Advent shareholders on 29 November 2019. 

•  During the year the Company issued 3,400,000 
shares at $0.05 for $170,000 cash. A further 
$15,000 had been received at year end for shares 
issued subsequent to year end.

MEC Resources Limited (“MEC”), BPH 0.8%

Settlement of Legal Matters with MEC 

On 9 August 2019 BPH announced that it had 
reached a settlement with MEC in relation to 
the oppression proceedings it commenced in 
the Supreme Court of Western Australia with 
Grandbridge, Trandcorp Pty Ltd (“Trandcorp”), and Mr 
David Breeze. 

In addition to the settlement of the oppression 
proceedings, BPH, MEC, GBA, Trandcorp and Mr 
David Breeze settled a number of other proceedings 
and entered into a Deed of Settlement and Release 
in August 2019 with Advent Energy Ltd (“Advent”) 
and other relevant parties as outlined in the Advent 
Energy summary above.

DIRECTOR’S REPORT  BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

All the parties have held their current position for the 
whole of the financial year and since the end of the 
financial year unless otherwise stated.

Remuneration Policy

The remuneration policy of BPH Energy Limited 
has been designed to align director and executive 
objectives with shareholder and business objectives 
by providing a fixed remuneration component and 
offering specific long-term incentives as determined 
by the board and/or shareholders. The remuneration 
report as contained in the 2019 financial accounts 
was adopted at the Company’s 2019 Annual General 
Meeting. The board believes the remuneration 
policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to 
attract and retain the best executives and directors 
to run and manage the Company, as well as create 
goal congruence between directors, executives and 
shareholders. 

The board’s policy for determining the nature and 
amount of remuneration for board members and 
senior executives of the Company is as follows:

•  The remuneration policy, setting the terms and 
conditions for the executive directors and other 
senior executives, was developed and approved 
by the board. 

•  All executives receive a base salary (which is 

based on factors such as length of service and 
experience), superannuation, fringe benefits and 
options.

•  The board reviews executive packages annually 
by reference to the Company’s performance, 
executive performance and comparable 
information from industry sectors and other listed 
companies in similar industries.

The performance of executives is measured against 
criteria agreed with each executive and is based 
predominantly on the amount of their workloads 
and responsibilities for the Company. The board 
may, however, exercise its discretion in relation to 
approving incentives, bonuses and options, and 
can recommend changes to recommendations. 
Any changes must be justified by reference to 
measurable performance criteria. The policy is 
designed to attract the highest calibre of executives 

and reward them for performance that results in 
long-term growth in shareholder wealth. Executives 
are also entitled to participate in the employee share 
and option arrangements. The Company did not 
engage remuneration consultants during the period.
The executive directors and executives which 
receive salaries receive a superannuation guarantee 
contribution required by the government, which 
is currently 9.50%, and do not receive any other 
retirement benefits. 

Shares given to directors and executives are valued 
as the difference between the market price of those 
shares and the amount paid by the director or 
executive. Options are valued using an appropriate 
valuation methodology.

The board policy is to remunerate non-executive 
directors at market rates for comparable companies 
for time, commitment and responsibilities. The 
maximum pool of non-executive director fees 
approved by shareholders is $250,000. Payments 
to non-executive directors are based on market 
practice, duties and accountability. Independent 
external advice is sought when required on 
payments to non-executive directors. The maximum 
aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to 
non-executive directors is subject to approval by 
shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees 
for non-executive directors are not linked to the 
performance of the Company. However, to align 
directors’ interests with shareholder interests, 
the directors are encouraged to hold shares in 
the Company and are able to participate in the 
employee option plan. The board does not have a 
policy in relation to the limiting of risk to directors 
and executives in relation to the shares and options 
provided.

Employment Contracts of Directors and Senior 
Executives

The employment conditions of the Managing 
Director, David Breeze, is formalised in a Product 
Development Agreement. The engagement is 
automatically extended for a period of 2 years 
at each anniversary date unless the Managing 
Director or the Company give notice of termination 
prior to the expiry of each term. The agreement 

1414

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

 
stipulates the Managing Director may terminate the 
engagement with a six month notice period. The 
company may terminate the agreement without 
cause by providing six months written notice or 
making payment in lieu of notice, based on the 
individual’s annual salary component together with 
a redundancy payment of up to twelve months of 

the individual’s fixed salary component. Termination 
payments are generally not payable on resignation 
or dismissal for serious misconduct. In the instance 
of serious misconduct the company can terminate 
employment at any time. Any options not exercised 
before or on the date of termination will not lapse.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 30 June 2020 
BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

1. Statement Of Significant Accounting Policies

Corporate Information 

The financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and the notes of BPH Energy Limited and its 
controlled entities (‘consolidated entity’ or ‘Group’). 

BPH Energy Limited is a Company incorporated and domiciled in Australia and listed on the Australian 
Securities Exchange. The financial report was authorised for issue on 30 September 2020 by the board of 
directors.

Basis of Preparation  

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian 
Accounting Standards other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board 
(“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001. BPH Energy Ltd is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the 
financial statements.

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a 
financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which 
they apply. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. 
They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. The financial report has been prepared on an 
accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where stated below.

Financial Position 

The consolidated entity has reported a net profit after tax for the year ended 30 June 2020 of $1,121,263 (2019: 
loss of $3,013,043) and has a net cash outflow from operating activities of $504,295 (2019: outflow of $487,427).  

The net profit from ordinary activities after tax is after recognising (i) a fair value loss of $734,542 (2019: gain 
of $280,372) (ii) $357,291 consulting and legal costs (2019: $332,102), (iii) share of associates losses of $30,793 
(2019: $28,006) (iv) a loan provision reversal of $2,929,199 (2019: expense of $2,889,033) (v) an impairment 
expense of $420,731 (2019: $Nil) and (vi) share based payments expense of $171,425 (2019: $82,422).

The consolidated entity has a working capital deficit of $1,324,846 (2019: deficit $941,825). The net assets of the 
consolidated entity increased by $2,281,577 to $4,283,836 at 30 June 2020.

Included in trade creditors and payables is current director fee accruals of $849,987 (2019: $812,783). The 
directors have reviewed their expenditure and commitments for the consolidated entity and have implemented 
methods of costs reduction. The directors as a part of their cash monitoring, have voluntarily suspended cash 
payments for their directors’ fees to conserve cash resources.  

The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts, including potential capital raisings, which indicate that the 
consolidated entity should have sufficient cash flows for a period of at least 12 months from the date of this 
report. Subsequent to year end the Company has raised $2,377,103 in cash from the issue of shares of shares 
under a share placement and non-renounceable rights issue. Based on the cash flow forecasts including 
directors voluntarily suspending cash payments for their director fees the directors are satisfied that, the going 

2424

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

concern basis of preparation is appropriate. The financial report has therefore been prepared on a going concern 
basis, which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of 
liabilities in the ordinary course of business. 

Should the consolidated entity not be successful in raising additional funds through the issue of new equity, 
should the need arise there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt as to whether or not 
the consolidated entity will be able to continue as a going concern and therefore, whether it will realise its 
assets and discharge its liabilities as and when they fall due and in the normal course of business and at the 
amounts stated in the financial report. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the 
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or, to the amounts and classification of liabilities that 
might be necessary should the entity not continue as a going concern.

Compliance with IFRS 

The consolidated financial statements of BPH Energy Limited Group comply with International Financial 
Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Accounting Policies

(a) 

Principles of Consolidation

(i) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group 
controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement 
with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the 
entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. 
They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 16 to the financial statements. All controlled entities 
have a June financial year-end.

As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the 
consolidated financial statements as well as their results for the year then ended. 

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and 
up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. The acquisition method of accounting is used to 
account for business combinations by the Group.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies 
are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an 
impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where 
necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the 
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in 
equity and statement of financial position respectively.

(ii) Changes in ownership interests

Changes in the Group’s interests in subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as 
equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are 

2525

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

 
 
HEALTH  TECHNOLOGY  RESOURCES 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 30 June 2020
BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the 
amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid 
or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Company.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the profit or loss on disposal is calculated as the difference 
between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any 
retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of 
the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive 
income in relation to the subsidiary are accounted for (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred 
directly to retained earnings) in the same manner as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities 
were disposed of. 

(b) 

Income Tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or 
disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the 
statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the statement of financial position liability method in respect of temporary 
differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial 
statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, 
excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or 
liability is settled. Deferred tax is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income 
except where it relates to items that may be recognised directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is 
adjusted directly against equity.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available 
against which deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax credits can be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets 
and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and 
tax liabilities are offset where the Company has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle 
on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption 
that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the Company will 
derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of 
deductibility imposed by the law.

Tax incentives
The Company may be entitled to claim special tax deductions in relation to qualifying expenditure. As the 
Company is not in a position to recognise current income tax payable or current tax expense, a refundable tax 
offset will be received in cash and recognised as rebate revenue in the period the underlying expenses have 
been incurred.

(c) Property, Plant & Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated 
depreciation and impairment losses.

Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the 
recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash 
flows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows 
have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the Company includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing 
costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, 
only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the 
cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation
The depreciable amount of fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Depreciation Rate
15 - 33 %

Class of Fixed Asset 
Plant and equipment 

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each statement of 
financial position date.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount 
is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains 
and losses are included in the statement of profit or loss. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in 
the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

(d)  

Financial Instruments

Recognition and derecognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual 
provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash 
flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are 
transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.

Classification and initial measurement of financial assets 
Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at 
the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted 
for transaction costs (where applicable). For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets, other 
than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories:

fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) 

>  amortised cost 
> 
>  equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) 
>  debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). 

All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within 
finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables which is 
presented within other expenses. 

The classification is determined by both:
> 
> 

the entity’s business model for managing the financial asset, and
the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. 

Subsequent measurement of financial assets 

(i) 

Financial assets at amortised cost 

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not 
designated as FVTPL): 
> 

they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets to collect its contractual 
cash flows 
the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and 
interest on the principal amount outstanding. 

> 

After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting 
is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents, trade and most 
other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments. 

(ii) 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) 

Financial assets that are held within a different business model other than ‘hold to collect’ or ‘hold to collect 
and sell’ are categorised at fair value through profit and loss. Further, irrespective of business model financial 
assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest are accounted for at 
FVTPL. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective 
as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements apply. The category also contains an 
equity investment. The Group accounts for the investment at FVTPL and did not make the irrevocable election 
to account for the investment in unlisted and listed equity securities at fair value through other comprehensive 
income (FVOCI). The fair value was determined in line with the requirements of AASB 9, which does not allow 
for measurement at cost. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognised in 
profit or loss. The fair values of financial assets in this category are determined by reference to active market 
transactions or using a valuation technique where no active market exists.  

(iii) 

Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Equity FVOCI) 

Investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading are eligible for an irrevocable election at 
inception to be measured at FVOCI. Under Equity FVOCI, subsequent movements in fair value are recognised 

2828

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss. Dividends from these investments 
continue to be recorded as other income within the profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents return 
of capital. This category includes unlisted equity securities that were previously classified as ‘available-for-sale’ 
under AASB 139. Any gains or losses recognised in other comprehensive income (OCI) are not recycled upon 
derecognition of the asset. 

(iv) 

Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Debt FVOCI) 

Financial assets with contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest and held 
within a business model of collecting the contractual cash flows and selling the assets are accounted for at debt 
FVOCI. The Group accounts for financial assets at FVOCI if the assets meet the following conditions: 
> 

they are held under a business model whose objective it is to “hold to collect” the associated cash flows and 
sell financial assets; and 
the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and 
interest on the principal amount outstanding. 

> 

Any gains or losses recognised in other comprehensive income (OCI) will be recycled upon derecognition of the 
asset. 

Impairment of financial assets 
AASB 9’s impairment requirements use more forward-looking information to recognise expected credit losses 
– the ‘expected credit loss (ECL) model’. This replaced AASB 139’s ‘incurred loss model’. Instruments within the 
scope of the new requirements included loans and other debt-type financial assets measured at amortised cost 
and FVOCI, trade receivables, contract assets recognised and measured under AASB 15 and loan commitments 
and some financial guarantee contracts (for the issuer) that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. 
Recognition of credit losses is no longer dependent on the Group first identifying a credit loss event. Instead 
the Group considers a broader range of information when assessing credit risk and measuring expected credit 
losses, including past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected 
collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument.

In applying this forward-looking approach, a distinction is made between: 
>  financial instruments that have not deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition or that 

have low credit risk (‘Level 1’) and 

>  financial instruments that have deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition and whose 

credit risk is not low (‘Level 2’). 
‘Level 3’ would cover financial assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date. 

> 

‘12-month expected credit losses’ are recognised for the first category while ‘lifetime expected credit losses’ are 
recognised for the second category. Measurement of the expected credit losses is determined by a probability-
weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of the financial instrument. 

Trade and other receivables and contract assets 
The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other receivables as well as contract 
assets and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls 
in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial 
instrument. In calculating, the Group uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking 
information to calculate the expected credit losses using a provision matrix. The Group assess impairment of 
trade receivables on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics they have been grouped 
based on the days past due. 

Classification and measurement of financial liabilities 
The Group’s financial liabilities include borrowings, trade and other payables and derivative financial instruments.

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

HEALTH  TECHNOLOGY  RESOURCES 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 30 June 2020
BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless 
the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are 
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities 
designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss 
(other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments). 

(e) 

Impairment of Assets

The Group reviews non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets, at each reporting date to determine 
whether there is any indication of impairment.  If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount 
is estimated. For goodwill, and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for 
use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value 
less costs to sell.  In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value 
using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the 
risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are 
Grouped together into the smallest Group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are 
largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or Groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit” or “CGU”). 
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable 
amount.  Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.  Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs 
are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units, and then to reduce the 
carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit (Group of units) on a pro rata basis. 

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed.  In respect of other assets, impairment losses 
recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or 
no longer exists.  An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine 
the recoverable amount.  An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does 
not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no 
impairment loss had been recognised.

(f) 

Intangibles

Research 

Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. 

Patents and Trademarks 

Patents and trademarks are recognised at cost of acquisition. Patents and trademarks have a finite life and 
are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Patents and trademarks are 
amortised over their useful life.

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

(g) 

Employee Benefits 

Provision is made for the Company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees 
to balance date. Short term employee benefits have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when 
the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Long term employee benefits have been measured at the present 
value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits using the corporate bond rate.

(h) 

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for 
which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

(i) 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid 
investments, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities 
on the statement of financial position.

(j) 

Investments in Associates

Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control, 
generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates 
are accounted for in the parent entity financial statements using the cost method and in the consolidated 
financial statements using the equity method of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost. The equity 
method of accounting recognises the Group’s share of post-acquisition reserves of its associates.

The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the profit or loss, and its 
share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in other comprehensive income. The cumulative 
post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment.

Dividends receivable from associates are recognised in the parent entity’s profit or loss, while in the consolidated 
financial statements they reduce the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in an 
associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the 
Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the 
associate.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the 
Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence 
of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary 
to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. Where an investment is classified as a financial 
asset in accordance with AASB 9, at the date significant influence is achieved, the fair value of the investment 
needs to be assessed. Any fair value gains are recognised in accordance with the treatment the classification the 
financial asset as required by AASB 9.

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, 
liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate recognised at the date of acquisition is recognised as 
goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of 
the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after 
reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

The consolidated entity discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when the investment ceases to

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

BPH ENERGY LIMITED AND IT’S CONTROLLED ENTITIES

be an associate or a joint venture, or when the investment is classified as held for sale. When the a consolidated 
entity retains an interest in the former associate or joint venture and the retained interest is a financial asset, the 
consolidated entity measures the retained interest at fair value at that date and the fair value is regarded as its 
fair value on initial recognition in accordance with AASB 9. The difference between the carrying amount of the 
associate or joint venture at the date the equity method was discontinued, and the fair value of any retained 
interest and any proceeds from disposing of a part interest in the associate or joint venture is included in the 
determination of the gains or loss on disposal of the associate or joint venture. In addition, the consolidated 
entity accounts for all amounts previously recognised other comprehensive income in relation to that associate 
or joint venture on the same basis as would be required if that associate or joint venture had directly disposed 
of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income by that 
associate or joint venture would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, 
the consolidated entity reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to profit or loss (as a reclassification adjustment) 
when the equity method is discontinued.

(k) 

Revenue and Other Income

Interest revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the 
amount of revenue can be measured reliably.  Interest revenue is accrued on a timely basis, by reference to the 
principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right 
to receive a dividend has been established. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised by reference to 
the stage of completion of the contract. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (“GST”).

(l) 

Goods and Services Tax 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part 
of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.  Receivables and payables in the 
statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement 
on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as 
operating cash flows.

(m) 

Trade and other payables 

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not 
billed to the consolidated entity. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 90 days.  Trade and 
other payables are recognised at amortised cost.

 (n) 

Share based payments

The fair value of options granted under the Company’s Employee Option Plan is recognised as an employee 
benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognized 
over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options and the fair value 
of shares and options issued to consultants is measured at the fair value of services received. 

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using an appropriate option pricing model that takes 
into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of 
dilution, the share price at grant date and expected volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend 
yield and risk free interest rate for the term of the option. 

3232

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

The fair value of the options granted excludes the impact of any non-market vesting conditions (for example, 
profitability and sales growth targets). Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the 
number of options that are expected to vest. At each statement of financial position date, the entity revises its 
estimate of the number of options that are expected to vest. The employee benefit expense recognised each 
period takes into account the most recent estimate. Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share-
based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital. 

(o) 

Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief 
operating decision maker, the directors (see Note 23).

(p) 

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated as net profit / loss attributable to members, adjusted to exclude 
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average 
number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. Diluted earnings per share  adjusts the figures used 
in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and 
other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and the weighted average number of 
additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential 
ordinary shares.

(q) 

Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical 
knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events 
and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.

Key judgements — Provision for Impairment of loan receivables 

Included in the accounts of the consolidated entity are loan receivables of $43,564 (2019: $162,564) net of 
expected credit loss provisions of $$1,358,895 (2019: $4,601,725). The Company recognized a doubtful debt 
reversal of $2,929,199 in the reporting period (2019: expense of $2,889,033).  

Key judgements — Investment in Advent Energy Ltd (“Advent”)

As of 1 January 2017 a judgement was made that, despite owning 27% of Advent, the Company no longer 
exercised significant influence over Advent and it ceased to be treated as an associate entity from that date. In 
particular, the Company was not involved in the operational decision making of Advent and did not have access 
to its operational and financial records. As a consequence of a legal settlement reached in August 2019 and 
David Breeze’s confirmation as a director of Advent the Company has resumed significant influence over Advent 
Energy Limited. The Company currently has a 22.3% direct interest in Advent, and, as part of the legal settlement 
reached with MEC in August 2019, if at any time before 23 July 2021 Advent has less than 51 members then 
MEC will, upon written request by BPH, execute an irrevocable proxy in favour of BPH in respect of all business to 
be considered at any meeting of members of Advent. For a period of one year commencing from 6 August 2019 
MEC must not sell or otherwise dispose of any shares it holds in Advent, other than by an in-specie distribution 
to MEC if requested in writing to do so by Advent. If notice is given, MEC must do all that is required to effect and 
support the In-Specie Distribution. Advent requested the in- specie distribution on 6 August 2019 but it has yet 
to be actioned by MEC. 

Key estimates - Investment in Molecular Discovery Systems

The investment in Molecular Discovery Systems Limited is equity accounted, refer to Note 10. The Company 
recognized an impairment expense of $420,731 (2019: $Nil) to fully impair the carrying value of the investment

Application of New and Revised Accounting Standards  

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted

The Directors have reviewed new accounting standards and interpretations that have been published that are 
not mandatory for 30 June 2020 reporting periods. As a result of this review, the Directors have determined 
that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Company and, 
therefore, no material change is likely to company accounting policies.

Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework)

The revised Conceptual Framework is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 
2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and recognition 
criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards. Where the 
consolidated entity has relied on the existing framework in determining its accounting policies for transactions, 
events or conditions that are not otherwise dealt with under the Australian Accounting Standards, the 
consolidated entity may need to review such policies under the revised framework. 

At this time, the application of the Conceptual Framework is not expected to have a material impact on the 
consolidated entity’s financial statements.

Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2020 

In the 12 month period ended 30 June 2020, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards 
and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual 
reporting period.  

AASB 16 Leases 

The consolidated entity has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019. The standard replaces AASB 117 ‘Leases’ and 
for lessees eliminates the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Except for short-term leases 
and leases of low-value assets, right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities are recognised in the 
statement of financial position. Straight-line operating lease expense recognition is replaced with a depreciation 
charge for the right-of-use assets (included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease 
liabilities (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease 
under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under AASB 117. However, EBITDA (Earnings 
Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results improve as the operating expense is now replaced 
by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss. For classification within the statement of cash flows, the 
interest portion is disclosed in operating activities and the principal portion of the lease payments are separately 
disclosed in financing activities. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor 
accounts for leases.

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

There is no material impact to statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income or net assets on the 
adoption of this new standard in the current or comparative years as the consolidated entity has no leases to

(a)  As of 1 January 2017 a judgement was made that, despite owning 27% of Advent, the Company no longer 

exercised significant influence over Advent and it ceased to be treated as an associate entity from that date. 
In particular, the Company was not involved in the operational decision making of Advent and did not have 
access to its operational and financial records. As a consequence of a legal settlement reached in August 
2019 and David Breeze’s confirmation as a director of Advent the Company has resumed significant influence 
over Advent Energy Limited and it has been treated as an associate again from that date. 

  During the period the Company converted $162,286 in loans due from Advent into shares in that Company.

(b) The Company has an unsecured loan with MDS for $650,700 as well as a convertible loan agreement with 

MDS at an interest rate of 7.69% per annum. 

The convertible loan is for a maximum amount of $500,000 and is to be used for short term working capital 
requirements. Subject to MDS being admitted to the Official List of ASX (“Official List”), BPH Energy has a right 
of conversion to satisfy the debt on or before the termination date, being 26 January 2022. As at reporting 
date this loan had been drawn down by an amount of $708,195, including capitalised interest (2019: 
$649,818). Interest charged on the loan for the period was $58,378 (2019: $53,496).

(c)  During the period the Company converted $3,746,451 in loans and short term amounts due from Cortical 

into shares in that Company. Consequently a reversal of an expected credit loss provision of $3,317,208 was 
recognised during the year on the loans with Cortical.

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

(i)  As of 1 January 2017 a judgement was made that, despite owning 27% of Advent Energy Limited (“Advent”), 

the Company no longer exercised significant influence over Advent and it ceased to be treated as an 
associate entity from that date. In particular, the Company was not involved in the operational decision 
making of Advent and did not have access to its operational and financial records. If an entity holds, directly 
or indirectly, twenty per cent or more of the voting power of an investee it is presumed that the entity has 
significant influence, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case.

  On 6 August 2019 the Company entered into a Deed of Settlement and Release (“Deed”) with Advent, MEC 

Resources Limited (“MEC”), Grandbridge Limited (“GBA”), Trandcorp Pty Ltd (“Trandcorp”) and Mr David Breeze 
and other relevant parties. As a condition of this Deed it was agreed that Messrs Matthew Battrick and Tobias 
Foster would appoint Messrs Steven James, Tony Huston and Thomas Fontaine as directors of Advent, and 
that Messrs Matthew Battrick and Tobias Foster would then resign from the Board of Advent. The incoming 
directors have since confirmed and acknowledged Mr David Breeze as a duly elected director of Advent.

The existence of significant influence by an BPH over Advent from the date of the Deed is evidenced by 
Mr David Breeze being the Managing Director of both BPH and Advent, MEC no longer have a MEC Board 
position, and, if at any time before 23 July 2021 Advent has less than 51 members then MEC, who currently 
holds 49% of Advent will, upon written request by BPH, execute an irrevocable proxy in favour of BPH in 
respect of all business to be considered at any meeting of members of Advent. As a consequence the 
Company regained significant influence over Advent and Advent has once again been recognised as an 
associate of BPH from 6 August 2019.

In the June 2018 year Advent’s management at that time assessed capitalised costs for impairment by 
reference to the value implied for the PEP 11 permit by virtue of a conditional farmin agreement entered 
into with RL Energy Pty Ltd. Based on this assessment the asset was considered to be impaired and an 
adjustment to the fair value was booked at 30 June 2018. This farmin agreement was terminated on 17 
September 2019 and therefore the writedown of $18,780,680 booked to the fair value at 30 June 2018 was 
pre-emptive. In the current period the Advent directors have assessed the valuation of the PEP 11 permit 
against what they consider a comparable transaction with the result that the 2018 year PEP 11 impairment 
has been reversed to the extent of $6,882,247 resulting in the $14,893 share of an associate loss recognized 
by BPH in the year net of notional goodwill of $933,354 not brought to account on recognition of Advent as 
an associate again from 6 August 2019.

  Advent is continually seeking and reviewing potential sources of both equity and debt funding. Advent 

is now embarking on a fresh marketing campaign to attract new investors and/or joint venture partners. 
Management has confidence that a suitable outcome will be achieved however there is no certainty at this 
stage that this will result in further funding being made available. Asset Energy Pty Ltd has invested over $25 
million in the PEP11 title in recent history and, along with its JV partner Bounty Oil and Gas NL, is committed 
to continuing to explore for and ultimately exploit any petroleum accumulations which may be identified in 
this title area. If Advent is unable to source further funding for each of PEP11, RL1 and EP 386 each of these 
permits are at risk. 

The above conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may affect the ability of Advent to realise the 
carrying value of the exploration assets in the ordinary course of business and may affect the ability of the 
Company to realise the carrying value of its loan receivable and its investment in Advent in the ordinary 
course of business.

(ii)  The carrying value of Molecular Discovery Systems Limited has been fully impaired during the period. The 
Molecular Discovery Systems Limited 30 June 2020 financial statements are still in the process of being 
audited.

requirements of the Group to meet corporate overheads. The strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is 
maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as 
required. The working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2019 is as follows:

BPH owns 51.82% equity interest in Diagnostic Array Systems Pty Ltd (“DAS”) and consequentially controls more 
than half of the voting power of those shares. Mr David Breeze is the Chairman of both entities. BPH therefore 
has control over the financial and operating policies of DAS. DAS is controlled by the Group and is consolidated 
in these financial statements. DAS’s loss for the year was $1,117 (2018: loss of $509) of which $538 (2019: $245) is

18. Subsequent Events 

On 23 July 2020 the Company announced it had completed a placement and that it intends to undertake a 
non-renounceable rights issue. 

The placement consisted of 29,987,500 fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.015 per share, together 
with one free attaching option with an exercise price of $0.05 per share and an expiry date of 29 July 2022 for 
every two placement shares subscribed for and issued to sophisticated and professional investors under the 
Company’s existing placement capacity, raising $449,813 in cash.

In August 2020 the Company completed the 2 for 5 non-renounceable rights issue at $0.015 per share together 
with one free attaching option with an exercise price of $0.05 per share and an expiry date of 29 July 2022 
for every two shares subscribed for and issued, raising $1,685,752 in cash and $250,518 in in extinguishment 
of amounts owed to directors. In addition, a further 16,012,566 shortfall shares (representing $241,539) and 
attaching options under the non-renounceable rights issue will, subject to shareholder approval at a meeting 
anticipated to be held in October 2020, be issued in extinguishment of amounts owed to directors.

There are no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the financial year other than 
outlined elsewhere in this financial report that have significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the 
operations of the company, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the company in future 
financial years.

19. Financial Risk Management

a)  

Financial Risk Management

The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, investments, accounts receivable 
and payable, and loans to and from subsidiaries. The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is 
to raise finance for Group operations policies.

The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk, 
credit risk and equity price risk. 

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is managed with a mixture of fixed and floating rate financial assets. The Group’s financial 
liabilities are currently not exposed to interest rate risk as the Group has no interest bearing financial liabilities. 

Liquidity risk

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, by continuously monitoring forecast and 
actual cash flows. 

Credit risk

The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date 
to recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as 
disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. 

4646

BPH Energy  I  Annual Report 2020

 
 
Equity price risk 

The Group is exposed to equity price risk through its shareholdings in publicly listed entities. Material 
investments are managed on an individual basis.

Foreign currency risk

The Group is not exposed to any material risks in relation to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. 

b) 

Financial Instruments

Interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a 
result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial 
assets and financial liabilities with floating rates, based on contractual maturities, is as follows:

Fair Values

The fair values of:

•  Term receivables are determined by discounting the cash flows, at the market interest rates of similar 

securities, to their present value.

•  Other loans and amounts due are determined by discounting the cash flows, at market interest rates of 

similar borrowings to their present value.

•  For unlisted investments where there is no organised financial market, the fair value has been based on 

valuation techniques incorporating non-market data.

No financial assets and financial liabilities are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form.

Sensitivity Analysis – Interest Rate Risk

The Group has performed sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to interest rate risk at balance date.  This 
sensitivity analysis demonstrates the effect on the current year results and equity which could result from a 
change in these risks. The effect on profit and equity as a result of changes in the variable interest rate, with all 
other variables remaining constant would be as follows:

Change in profit (loss)

Increase in interest rate 1%

Decrease in interest rate by 0.5%

Liquidity risk

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and borrowing facilities, by continuously 
monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and 
liabilities.

Liquidity is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its 
financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.

The following table provides an analysis of consolidated financial instruments that are measured subsequent 
to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is 
observable.
• 

Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for 
identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within 
Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from 
prices).
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset 
or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

• 

• 

There were no transfers between the levels for recurring fair value measurements during the year.

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include: For unlisted investments where there 
is no organised financial market, the fair value has been based on valuation techniques incorporating non-
market data prepared by independent valuers.

(c)  In November 2019 it became apparent that the Company’s previous management, who were also the 
management of MEC prior to the Deed entered into in August 2019 between the Company and other 
relevant parties, had lodged a Research and Development Tax Incentive claim for the year ending 30 June 
2018 in the name of MEC in respect of work performed on the PEP 11 permit, the majority of which costs 
had been borne by Advent. MEC owned only 53% of Advent. 

  MEC noted in their December 2018 quarterly Appendix 4C cash flow report lodged with ASX on 31 January 
2019 that they had been “granted a Research and Development (“R & D”) incentive in the quarter ended 31 
December 2018 after recent seismic activities within PEP 11. An amount of $384k was received under the 
scheme in Q2”. Subsequent to the Deed the Company’s new management questioned why the R & D claim 
not been submitted in the name of Advent. As a result of these enquiries the $728,563 costs incurred by 
Advent in respect of the PEP 11 June 2018 R & D claim, together with $68,408 costs in respect of a proposed 
June 2019 R & D claim by MEC, have been recharged to MEC and are showing as a current asset of the 
Company at 30 June 2020.  The Company has commenced legal action to recover amounts due from MEC.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
To the members of BPH Energy Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion  

We  have  audited  the  financial  report  of  BPH  Energy  Limited  (“the  Company”)  and  its  controlled 
entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at  30 
June  2020,  the  consolidated  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income,  the 
consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the 
year  then  ended,  and  notes  to  the  financial  statements,  including  a  summary  of  significant 
accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.  

In  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  financial  report  of  the  Group  is  in  accordance  with  the 
Corporations Act 2001, including:  

a)  giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Group’s  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2020  and  of  its 

financial performance for the year then ended; and  

b)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.  

Basis for opinion  

We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards.  Our  responsibilities 
under those standards are further described in the  Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 
Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the 
auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of 
the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical  Standards  Board’s  APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for 
Professional  Accountants  (“the  Code”)  that  are  relevant  to  our  audit  of  the  financial  report  in 
Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 
for our opinion.  

Material uncertainty related to going concern 

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists 
that may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is 
not modified in respect of this matter. 

Material uncertainty related to the carrying value of the investment in Advent Energy Limited 

We draw attention to Note 10 in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty in 
relation to the Group’s ability to realise the carrying value of its investment in Advent Energy Limited 
and subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business . Our opinion is not modified in respect of this 
matter.

Key audit matters  

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance 
in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context 
of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not  
provide a separate  opinion on  these matters. In addition to the  matter described in the  Material 
uncertainty related to going concern and the material uncertainty related to the carrying value in  
Advent Energy Limited we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters 
to be communicated in our report. 

Key Audit Matter 

How  our  audit  addressed  the  key  audit 
matter 

Investments accounted for using the equity method 
Note 10 

As  at  30  June  2020,  the  carrying  value  of  the 
investments accounted for using the equity method was 
$2,153,304.  During the year, the Group fully  impaired 
its investment in Molecular Discovery Systems Limited 
and  regained  significant  influence  of  Advent  Energy 
Limited and reclassified the investment from fair value 
through  profit  or  loss  to  investments  accounted  for 
using  the  equity  method.  Additionally,  the  Group 
converted  a  loan  receivable  from  Advent  Energy 
Limited into to equity.   

We  considered  this  to  be  a  key  audit  matter  as  it  is

reclassification  of  the  investment 
from fair value through profit or loss 
to investments accounted for using 
the equity method; 

-  We  considered  if  that  any  notional 
goodwill in excess of cost could be 
recognised;

Valuation of financial assets 
Notes 9 

As at 30 June 2020, the Group had financial assets of 
loan  receivables  with  a  carrying  value  $21,342  and 
financial assets at fair value of  $3,727,600 at balance 
date. During the year, the Group recorded a fair value 
loss  of  $484,542  on  its  investments  and  reversed 
doubtful  debts  provisions  on  its  loan  receivables  of 
$2,929,119. 

We  considered  this  to  be  a  key  audit  matter  as  it  is 
important  to  users’  understanding  of  the  financial 
statements  as  a  whole  and  involves  judgement  in 
relation to the determination of fair value and expected 
credit losses. 

Our  procedures  included  but  were  not 
limited to the following: 

-  We  considered  the  ability  of  the 
other party to repay its loan with the 
consolidated  entity  to  determine  if 
any  additional  provisions  were 
required; 

-  We assessed the Group’s valuation 

of individual investment holdings.; 

-  For  investments  where  there  was 
less or little observable market data, 
including 
level  3 
level  2  and 
holdings as disclosed in note 19, we 
obtained  and  assessed  other 
relevant valuation data; and 

-  We reviewed the disclosures made 

in the financial statements.

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon 

The  directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  the 
information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not 
include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this 
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report  

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives 
a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 
2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation 
of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether 
due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group 
to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as  applicable, matters related to going concern and 
using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group 
or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is 
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that 
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee 
that  an  audit  conducted  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards  will  always  detect  a 
material  misstatement  when  it  exists.  Misstatements  can  arise  from  fraud  or  error  and  are 
considered  material  if,  individually  or  in  the  aggregate,  they  could  reasonably  be  expected  to 
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional 
judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:  

- 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to 
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit 
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not 
detecting  a material  misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting  from 
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the 
override of internal control.  

-  Obtain  an  understanding  of  internal  control  relevant  to  the  audit  in  order  to  design  audit 
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing 
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.  
Evaluate  the  appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of 
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting 
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to 
events or conditions that  may cast significant doubt  on the Group’s  ability to continue as a 
going  concern.  If  we  conclude  that  a  material  uncertainty  exists,  we  are  required  to  draw 
attention  in  our  auditor’s  report  to  the  related  disclosures  in  the  financial  report  or,  if  such 
disclosures  are  inadequate,  to  modify  our  opinion.  Our  conclusions  are  based  on  the  audit 
evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions 
may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.  
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the 
disclosures,  and  whether  the  financial  report  represents  the  underlying  transactions  and 
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.  

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing 
of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control 
that we identify during our audit.  

We  also  provide  the  directors  with  a  statement  that  we  have  complied  with  relevant  ethical 
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other 
matters  that  may  reasonably  be  thought  to  bear  on  our  independence,  and  where  applicable, 
related safeguards.  

From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most 
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit 
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public 
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter 
should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would 
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
