Letter from the Chairman 

On behalf of your Board of Directors, I have pleasure in presenting the 2017 Annual Report 
and Financial Statements of Bryah Resources Limited (“Bryah Resources” or the “Company”) 
for the period to 30 June 2017.   

Over the period under report the Company transformed itself through the acquisition of the 
Bryah Basin Project and the Gabanintha Project precious and base metals mineral rights. 

Bryah  Resources  recorded  a  total  comprehensive  loss  after  tax  of  $178,526  for  the  period 
ended 30 June 2017. 

Capitalised expenditure on exploration, excluding tenement acquisition costs, largely on the 
Bryah Basin Project was $311,526 during the financial period. 

The Board of Bryah Resources is committed to finalising the capital raising being undertaken 
to fund the listing of the Company on the ASX and subsequently pursuing an active exploration 
programme  on  the  Bryah  Basin  and  Gabanintha  Projects  with  the  aim  of  discovering  new 
copper/gold  mineralisation  and  advancing  those  discoveries  as  quickly  as  possible.  This 
strategy is intended to deliver long-term growth to shareholders. 

Post  listing  Bryah  Resources  will  have  sufficient  cash  reserves  with  no  debt,  allowing  the 
Company to pursue its ambitions of achieving growth through discovery and acquisitions in 
the resources sector.  

I wish to thank shareholders for their loyalty and support throughout the period and extend my 
sincere thanks to the Board of Bryah Resources, all our employees and consultants for their 
contributions and efforts to date. We look forward to continued success in the year ahead. 

Yours faithfully 

Geoffrey (Stuart) Crow

Remuneration Report (Audited) 

This  report  details  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration  for  each  director  and  executive  of  the 
Company.  

For  the  purposes  of  this  report  Key  Management  Personnel  of  the  Company  are  defined  as  those 
persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of 
the Company, directly or indirectly. 

For the purposes of this report the term “executive” includes those key management personnel who are 
not Directors of the Company. 

Remuneration Committee 

The  full  Board  carries  out  the  role  and  responsibilities  of  the  Remuneration  Committee  and  is 
responsible  for  determining  and  reviewing  the  compensation  arrangements  for  the  Directors 
themselves, the Managing Director and any Executives. 

Executive remuneration is  reviewed annually  having regard  to individual  and business performance, 
relevant comparative remuneration and internal and independent external advice. 

6 

Bryah Resources Ltd 
ACN: 616 795 245 

Remuneration policy 

The board policy is to remunerate Directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. 
The board determines payments to the Directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on 
market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The 
maximum aggregate amount of Directors’ fees that can be paid is subject to approval by shareholders 
in  a  general  meeting,  from  time  to  time.  Fixed  fees for  non-executive  directors  are  not  linked  to  the 
performance of the Company. However, to align Directors’ interests with shareholders’ interests, the 
Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and may be issued with options and share 
rights from time to time. 

The Company’s aim is to remunerate at  a  level that  will attract and retain high-calibre directors and 
employees. Company Directors and officers are remunerated to a level consistent with the size of the 
Company. 

The  executive  Directors  and  full  time  executives  receive  a  superannuation  guarantee  contribution 
required by the government, which is currently 9.5%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. 
Some individuals, however, may choose to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards 
superannuation. 

All remuneration paid to Directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. 

The Board believes that it has implemented suitable practices and procedures that are appropriate for 
an organisation of this size and maturity. 

Remuneration Structure 

In  accordance  with  best  practice  corporate  governance,  the  structure  of  non-executive  director  and 
executive compensation is separate and distinct. 

Non-executive Director Compensation 

Objective  

The Board seeks to set aggregate compensation at a level that provides the Company with the ability 
to  attract  and  retain  directors  of  the  highest  calibre,  whilst  incurring  a  cost  that  is  acceptable  to 
shareholders. 

Structure 

The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate compensation of non-executive 
directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the 
amount determined is then divided between the Directors as agreed. The latest determination approved 
by shareholders was an aggregate compensation of $500,000 per year. 

The  amount  of  aggregate  compensation  sought  to  be  approved  by  shareholders  and  the  manner  in 
which  it  is  apportioned  amongst  Directors  is  reviewed  annually.  The  Board  considers  advice  from 
external consultants as well as the fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when 
undertaking  the  annual  review  process.  Non-Executive  Directors’  remuneration  may  include  an 
incentive portion consisting of options, as considered appropriate by the Board, which may be subject 
to Shareholder approval in accordance with ASX Listing Rules.  

Separate  from  their  duties  as  Directors,  the  Non-Executive  Directors  may  undertake  work  for  the 
Company  directly  related  to  the  evaluation  and  implementation  of  various  business  opportunities, 
including mineral exploration/evaluation and new business ventures, for which they may receive a daily 
rate. These payments will be made pursuant to individual agreements with the non-executive Directors 
and will not be taken into account when determining their aggregate remuneration levels.

Bryah Resources Ltd 
ACN: 616 795 245 

Executive Compensation 

Objective 

The entity aims to reward executives with a level and mix of compensation commensurate with their 
position and responsibilities within the entity so as to: 

•

•

•

•

reward  executives  for  Company  and  individual  performance  against  targets  set  by  appropriate
benchmarks;

align the interests of executives with those of shareholders;

link rewards with the strategic goals and performance of the Company; and

ensure total compensation is competitive by market standards.

Structure 

In determining the level and make-up of executive remuneration, the Board negotiates a remuneration 
to reflect the market salary for a position and individual of comparable responsibility and experience.  
Due to the limited size of the Company and of its operations and financial affairs, the use of a separate 
remuneration committee is not considered appropriate.  Remuneration is regularly compared with the 
external market by participation in industry salary surveys and during recruitment activities generally. If 
required, the Board may engage an external consultant to provide independent advice in the form of a 
written report detailing market levels of remuneration for comparable executive roles. 

Remuneration  consists  of  a  fixed  remuneration  and  a  long  term  incentive  portion  as  considered 
appropriate. Compensation may consist of the following key elements:  

•

•

•

•

Fixed Compensation;

Variable Compensation;

Short Term Incentive (STI); and

Long Term Incentive (LTI).

Fixed Remuneration 

The  level  of  fixed  remuneration  is  set  so  as  to  provide  a  base  level  of  remuneration  which  is  both 
appropriate to the position and is competitive in the market. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually 
by  the  Board  having  regard  to  the  Company  and  individual  performance,  relevant  comparable 
remuneration in the mining exploration sector and external advice. 

The fixed remuneration is a base salary or monthly consulting fee. 

Variable Pay - Long Term Incentives  

The objective of long term incentives is to reward Directors/executives in a manner which aligns this 
element of remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth. The incentive portion is payable based 
upon attainment of objectives related to the director’s/executive’s job responsibilities. The objectives 
vary, but all are targeted to relate directly to the Company’s business and financial performance and 
thus to shareholder value. 

Long term incentives (LTIs) granted to Directors and executives may be delivered in the form of options 
or performance rights. LTI grants to executives are delivered in the form of the Company’s Performance 
Rights and Options Plan.  

The objective of the granting of options or rights is to reward executives in a manner which aligns the 
element of remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth. As such LTI’s are made to executives 
who  are  able  to  influence  the  generation  of  shareholder  wealth  and  thus  have  an  impact  on  the 

8 

Bryah Resources Ltd 
ACN: 616 795 245 

Company’s performance. 

The level of LTI granted is, in turn, dependent on the Company’s recent share price performance, the 
seniority of the executive, and the responsibilities the executive assumes in the Company. 

Typically,  the  grant  of  LTIs  occurs  at  the  commencement  of  employment  or  in  the  event  that  the 
individual receives a promotion. 

Employment contracts of directors and senior executives 

The  employment  arrangements  of  the  non-executive  chairman  and  non-executive  directors  are 
formalised in letters of appointment, the details of which are as follows: 

•

•

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

These financial statements and notes represent those of Bryah Resources Limited for the period ended 
30 June 2017. 

Bryah Resources Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia. The Company is 
domiciled in Western Australia. The nature of operations and principal activities of the  Company are 
described in the Directors' Report. 

1(a)    Basis of Preparation 

The  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements  that  have  been  prepared  in 
accordance  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards,  Australian  Accounting  Interpretations,  other 
authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  (AASB)  and  the 
Corporations  Act  2001.  The  Company  is  a  for-profit  entity  for  financial  reporting  purposes  under 
Australian Accounting Standards. 

The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs 
modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial 
assets  and  financial  liabilities.  Material  accounting  policies  adopted  in  preparation  of  these  financial 
statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. 

The Company’s financial statements are presented in Australian dollars. 

1(b)  Going concern 

The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  on  the  going  concern  basis,  which  contemplates 
continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the 
normal course of business. 

The Company is undertaking an Initial Public Offering, ahead of an expected listing on ASX, to raise a 
minimum of $5,000,000 through the issue of 25,000,000 shares at 20c with the capacity to issue an 
additional 5,000,000 shares at 20c to raise up to $1,000,000.  

The directors recognize that the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and to pay its 
debts as and when they fall due for the next 12 months is dependent on the ability of the Company to 
secure additional funding through the issue of shares as outlined above.  

The directors are of the opinion that this will be achieved. However, should this not be achieved, the 
Company may be unable to continue as a going concern, and thus may be required to realize its assets 
and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different from 
those stated in the financial report.  

The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of 
recorded asset amounts nor to the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should 
the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. 

1(c)    Adoption of new and revised standards 

In  the  current  period,  the  Company  has  adopted  all  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and 
Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its 
operations and effective for the current annual reporting period. The adoption of these new and revised 
Standards  and Interpretations has  not resulted  in  a significant  or material change to  the  Company’s 
accounting policies. 

16 

Bryah Resources Ltd 
ACN: 616 795 245 

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the period ended 30 June 2017 

The Company has also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are 
not  yet  effective  for  the  period  ended  30  June  2017.  As  a  result  of  this  review  the  Directors  have 
determined  that  there  is  no  impact,  material  or  otherwise,  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and 
Interpretations on its business and, therefore, no change necessary to Company accounting policies. 

1(d)    Statement of Compliance 

The financial report was authorised for issue on 4 October 2017. 

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. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and 
notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 

1(e)    Revenue and other income 

Revenue  is  recognised  to  the  extent  that  it  is  probable  that  the  economic  benefits  will  flow  to  the 
Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must 
also be met before the revenue is recognised. 

Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset. 

1(f)    Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments 
that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of 
changes in value. 

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash 
equivalents as described above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. 

1(g)     Trade and other receivables 

Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice 
amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An allowance for doubtful debts is made when 
there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written 
off when identified. 

1(h)   

Income Tax 

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected 
to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the 
amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. 

Deferred  income  tax  is  provided  on  all  temporary  differences  at  the  reporting  date  between  the  tax 
bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. 

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:  

•  when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an  asset 
or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, 
affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or  

•  when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates 
or  interests  in  joint  ventures,  and  the  timing  of  the  reversal  of  the  temporary  difference  can  be 
controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of 

17 

Bryah Resources Ltd 
ACN: 616 795 245 

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the period ended 30 June 2017 

unused  tax  assets  and  unused  tax  losses,  to  the  extent  that  it  is  probable  that  taxable  profit  will  be 
available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits 
and unused tax losses can be utilised, except: 

•  when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the 
initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at 
the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or 

•  when  the  deductible  temporary  difference  is  associated  with  investments  in  subsidiaries, 
associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to 
the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and 
taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised. 

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to 
the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of 
the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. 

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to 
the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be 
recovered. 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to 
the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that 
have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. 

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or 
loss. 

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set 
off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to 
the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. 

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  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. 

1(i)    Other taxes 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except: 

•  when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation 
authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as 
part of the expense item as applicable; and 

• 

receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included. 

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of 
receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. 

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of 
cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the 
taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows. 

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable 
to, the taxation authority.

For the period ended 30 June 2017 

1(j)    Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as 
an  exploration  and  evaluation  asset  in  the  period  in  which  they  are  incurred  where  the  following 
conditions are satisfied: 

(i) 

the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and 

(ii)  at least one of the following conditions is also met: 

(a) 

(b) 

the  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditures  are  expected  to  be  recouped  through 
successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; 
or 

exploration and evaluation activities in the area have not, at the reporting date, reached a 
stage  which  permits  a  reasonable  assessment  of  the  existence,  or  otherwise,  of 
economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or relation to, 
the area of interest are continuing. 

Exploration  and  evaluation  assets  are  initially  measured  at  cost  and  include  acquisition  of  rights  to 
explore, studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation 
of depreciation and amortisation of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and 
administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where 
they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest. 

Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest 
that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. 
The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which 
it has been allocated being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the 
extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying 
amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent 
that  the  increased  carrying  amount  does  not  exceed  the  carrying  amount  that  would  have  been 
determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous periods. 

Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, 
the  relevant  exploration  and  evaluation  asset  is  tested  for  impairment  and  the  balance  is  then 
reclassified to development. 

1(k)   

Impairment of assets 

The Company assesses at each reporting date  whether there is an indication that an asset may be 
impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the 
Company makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the 
higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, 
unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets 
or groups of assets and the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In 
such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. 
When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating  unit  exceeds  its recoverable amount, the 
asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. 

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. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those 
expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at a 

19 

Bryah Resources Ltd 
ACN: 616 795 245 

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the period ended 30 June 2017 

revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease). 

An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously 
recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the 
recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has 
been  a  change  in  the  estimates  used  to  determine  the  asset’s  recoverable  amount  since  the  last 
impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its 
recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been 
determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods. 
Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which 
case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is 
adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a 
systematic basis over its remaining useful life. 

1(l)    Trade and other payables 

Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and represent liabilities for goods 
and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial period that are unpaid and arise 
when  the  Company  becomes  obliged  to  make  future  payments  in  respect  of  the  purchase  of  these 
goods and services. 

1(m)   Share-based payment transactions 

The Company may provide benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Company in the 
form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights 
over shares (equity-settled transactions). 

When provided, the cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference 
to  the  fair  value  of  the  equity  instruments  at  the  date  at  which  they  are  granted.  The  fair  value  is 
determined by an external valuer using a Black-Scholes model. 

In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than 
conditions linked to the price of the shares of the Company (market conditions) if applicable. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, 
over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on 
which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting period). 

The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting 
date reflects  

(i) 

the extent to which the vesting period has expired, and  

(ii)  

the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest.  

No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of 
these conditions  is included in the  determination of fair  value at grant date. The amount charged or 
credited to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for a period represents the 
movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period. 

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is 
only conditional upon a market condition. 

If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the 
terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases 
the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, 

20 

Bryah Resources Ltd 
ACN: 616 795 245 

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the period ended 30 June 2017 

as measured at the date of modification. 

If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and 
any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is 
substituted  for  the  cancelled  award  and  designated  as  a  replacement  award  on  the  date  that  it  is 
granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, 
as described in the previous paragraph. 

The  dilutive  effect,  if  any,  of  outstanding  options  is  reflected  as  additional  share  dilution  in  the 
computation of earnings per share. 

1(n)   

Issued capital 

Ordinary  shares  are  classified  as  equity.  Incremental  costs  directly  attributable  to  the  issue  of  new 
shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. 

1(o)    Segment Reporting 

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief 
operating  decision  maker.  The  chief  operating  decision  maker,  who  is  responsible  for  allocating 
resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of 
Directors of the Company. The Company presently operates in one segment being mineral exploration 
within Australia. 

1(p)    Earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit  or loss attributable to members of the  Company, 
adjusted to exclude any 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 is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members of the Company, 
adjusted for: 

• 

• 

• 

costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends; 

the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that 
have been recognised as expenses; and 

other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from 
the  dilution  of  potential  ordinary  shares;  divided  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary 
shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

1(q)    Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgments 

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions 

In the process of applying the  Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following 
estimates  and  judgments,  which  have  the  most  significant  effect  on  the  amounts  recognised  in  the 
financial statements. 

Exploration and evaluation assets 

The Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure is set out at Note 1(j). The 
application  of  this  policy  necessarily  requires  management  to  make  certain  judgements  and 
assumptions  as  to  future  events  and  circumstances.  Any  such  judgements  and  assumptions  may 
change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalised expenditure under the policy, 
it is concluded that the expenditures are unlikely to be recovered by future exploitation or sale, then the 
relevant capitalised amount will be written off to the statement profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income. 

Share-based payment transactions 

The  Company  measures  the  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  with  employees  and  directors  by 
reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value 
is determined from a Black-scholes pricing model that incorporates various estimates and assumptions. 

1(r) 

Comparative figures 

The Company was incorporated on 13 January 2017. As the period to 30 June 2017 is the Company’s 
first reporting period, there are no comparative figures.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 

The Company’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, cash and short-term 
deposits.  The  Company  manages  its  exposure  to  key  financial  risks  in  accordance  with  the 
Company’s financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support the delivery 
of the Company’s financial targets while protecting future financial security. 

The main risks arising from the  Company’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk 
and  liquidity risk. The  Company does not speculate  in the  trading of derivative instruments. The 
Company  uses  different  methods  to  measure  and  manage  different  types  of  risks  to  which  it  is 
exposed. These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rates and assessments of market 
forecasts  for  interest  rates.  Ageing  analysis  of  and  monitoring  of  receivables  are  undertaken  to 
manage credit risk, liquidity risk is monitored through the development of future rolling cash flow 
forecasts. 

The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks as summarised below. 

Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board 
reviews and agrees policies for managing each of the risks identified below, including for interest 
rate risk, credit allowances and cash flow forecast projections. 

Details  of  the  significant  accounting  policies  and  methods  adopted,  including  the  criteria  for 
recognition,  the  basis  of  measurement  and  the  basis  on  which  income  and  expenses  are 
recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset and financial liability are disclosed in note 1 
to the financial statements. 

17(a) 

Interest rate risk 

The  Company’s  exposure  to  risks  of  changes  in  market  interest  rates  relates  primarily  to  the 
Company’s cash balances. The Company constantly analyses its interest rate exposure. Within this 
analysis  consideration  is  given  to  potential  renewals  of  existing  positions,  alternative  financing 
positions and the mix of fixed and variable interest rates. As the Company has no interest-bearing 
borrowings its exposure to interest rate movements is limited to the amount of interest income it can 
potentially earn on surplus cash deposits. The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest 
rate risk exposures in existence at the reporting date. 

At the reporting date, the Company had the following financial assets exposed to variable interest 
rates that are not designated in cash flow hedges:

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the period ended 30 June 2017 

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the  interest rate risk exposures in existence at the 
reporting date. 

At  the  reporting  date,  if  interest  rates  had  moved  as  illustrated  in  the  table  below,  with  all  other 
variables held constant, post-tax profit and equity relating to financial assets of the Company would 
have been affected as follows: 

Estimates of reasonably possible movements: 
Post tax profit – higher / (lower) 

+0.5% 

-0.5% 

Equity – higher / (lower) 

+0.5% 

-0.5% 

17(b)  Liquidity Risk 

$ 

461 

(461) 

461 

(461) 

The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring immediate and forecast cash requirements and 
ensuring adequate cash reserves are maintained. 

17(c)  Credit risk 

Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the  Company, which comprise deposits with banks 
and trade and other receivables. The Company’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default 
of the counter party, with the maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. 
The carrying amounts of financial assets included in the statement of financial position represents 
the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to those assets. 

The Company does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure. The Company trades 
only with recognised, creditworthy third parties and as such collateral is not requested nor is it the 
Company’s policy to securitise its trade and other receivables. 

Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Company does not 
have a significant exposure to bad debts. 

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Company. 

17(d)  Capital Management Risk 

Management controls the capital of the Company in order to maximise the return to shareholders 
and ensure that the Company can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. 

Management  effectively  manages  the  Company’s  capital  by  assessing  the  Company’s  financial 
risks and adjusting its capital  structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. 
These responses include the management of expenditure  and debt  levels  and share and  option 
issues. 

The Company has no external loan debt facilities other than trade payables. There have been no 
changes in the strategy adopted by management to control capital of the Company since the prior 
period.

17(e)  Commodity Price and Foreign Currency Risk 

The  Company’s  exposure  to  price  and  currency  risk  is  minimal  given  the  Company  is  still  in  the 
exploration phase. 

17(f)  Fair Value 

The methods of estimating fair value are outlined in the relevant notes to the financial statements. All 
financial assets and liabilities recognised in the statement of financial position, whether they are carried 
at cost or fair value, are recognised at amounts that represent a reasonable approximation of fair values 
unless otherwise stated in the applicable notes. 

18.  EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE REPORTING DATE 

No  matters  or  circumstances  have  arisen  since  the  end  of  the  financial  period  which  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  subsequent  financial  years,  other  than  as  outlined  in  the 
Company’s review of operations which is contained in this Annual Report.
