Dear Shareholders  

On behalf of the directors of Calima Energy Limited (Company), it is my pleasure to present this years’ Annual Report. 

Calima  is  pleased  to  be  participating  in  a  transformational  combination  with  the  Canadian  energy  company,  Blackspur  Oil  Corp 
(Blackspur).  Blackspur has been built from the ground up by a team of young, energetic oil and gas professionals with an impressive 
track record as resource locators, and effective developers.    The Blackspur team has assembled and de-risked their assets through 
a  combination  of  drilling  and  acquisitions  over  the  past  8  years.  The  team  remains  dedicated  to  pursuing  synergistic  growth 
opportunities across the top tier Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin and to advancing the Montney assets held by Calima in a 
rising gas market.   

The Blackspur team, supported by the existing Calima team, is well positioned to take advantage of strengthening fundamentals in 
both  oil  &  gas  commodity  markets  in  Canada.  In  addition  to  the  first-class  oil-focused  assets  within  Blackspurs’  portfolio,  our 
combined team will be poised to unlock value from the Calima Montney Lands and buoyed by pending demand from the completion 
of Canada’s first LNG export facility, LNG Canada, as well as the improved pipeline capacity providing increased access to US markets 
and an expanding industrial base in Canada. 

The junior energy sector in Canada has been starved for capital in recent years and is ripe for an active consolidator with available 
capital. This merger will create a mid-tier, ASX listed company, with strong cash flow from highly economic oil assets that have been 
undercapitalised in recent years. With the expertise of the Blackspur team, this combination also creates a foundation for the future 
development of the massive undeveloped resource portfolio in the Montney that Calima holds.  This compelling mix of portfolio 
strength, strong production growth with cashflow along with Blackspurs’ experience at efficiently developing oil plays shall propel 
the Company forward in parallel with rising commodity prices that we are experiencing as we enter a new cycle for oil and gas.   

Finally,  Blackspurs’  environmental  commitment  and  focus  on  increased  ESG  performance  provides  a  pathway  for  top  quartile 
performance amongst peers in the Canadian oil and gas sector.  These last few months have been very exciting times for the Calima 
team, and we look forward to navigating forward with all our committed shareholders, to create an entity that we can all be proud 
owners of.   The Blackspur acquisition has been competently executed by our phenomenal team both in Canada and Australia.  I 
would like to thank our Board, management, legal and commercial advisors and our brokers with their dedicated attention towards 
a transaction that took the Company significant time and energy to put together during a challenging time.  

Jordan Kevol, Blackspurs’ CEO,  assumes the role of Managing Director of the consolidated Company. We look forward to Jordan and 
his dedicated Blackspur team joining our ranks and Micheal Dobovich, our Canadian President together with Aaron Bauer will work 
together to become an integrated team.  We are confident that the energy sector is showing signs of an impending boom and we 
expect it will deliver outstanding returns to investors over the coming years. We believe that jurisdictions like Western Canada with 
proven reserves and significant infrastructure in place will outperform.  All the signs point to a complete market reset with increased 
demand and price rises following: 

Substantial declines in global exploration;  

• 
•  Majors investing in renewable energy;  
• 
Increasing US regulatory pressures 
•  Widespread Covid-19 inoculations;  
• 
• 

Unprecedented fiscal stimulation; and  
Low interest rates  

With markets seeing an increase in oil demand we have witnessed the oil price rise from sub $40 to over US$60 per barrel and some 
analysts are predicting oil above US$80/bbl.  Pricing at US$60 per barrel creates significant cashflow for the new entity, however, 
should US$80 oil become a reality,  the impact will be incredibly positive on our future core production at Brooks and Thorsby.   

Blackspurs’  low-cost  oil  producing  assets  provide  recurring  cash  flow  stream  and  exposure  to  improving  oil  prices,  while  the 
significant resource base of the Calima Lands in the Montney provide upside to both improving oil and gas prices along with LNG 
development in Canada. Our mission would not be possible without support of our shareholders in what has been a challenging, yet 
exciting environment.  

We look forward to a successful 2021 year. 

Glenn Whiddon - Executive Chairman

During the financial year the Board has held numerous face to face and conference call operational meetings to review 
existing operations.   Formal business during the period has also been implemented via Circular Resolutions of the Board. 

Principal Activities 

The principal activity during the year of the Company was oil and gas exploration and the continued review of opportunities 
available to the Company. 

REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  

During  the  year,  the  Company  continued  its  principal  activities  in  British  Columbia,  Canada.  An  overview  of  the  Montney 
assets is provided below followed by a summary of significant activities.  

Montney Acreage and Assets 

The Company owns and operates over 61,000 acres of drilling and production rights for the Montney Formation in British 
Columbia (“Calima Lands”).   The Company secured an initial interest in the Montney acreage in 2017 as part of an acquisition 
with Havoc Partners. Subsequently in May 2018 the Company executed agreements to acquire the remaining interest to hold 
100% through the acquisition’s of TSV Montney Ltd and TMK Montney Ltd. At the end of 2018 the Company undertook a 
$25m raising which financed the majority of the 2019 three well drilling campaign.  

Calima subsequently drilled one vertical well and two horizontal wells on the Calima Lands, of which two horizontal wells 
were completed and tested. The upper and middle horizontal wells were completed and tested and McDaniel & Associates 
Consultants Ltd. (“McDaniel”) prepared a report on the contingent and prospective resources of the Calima Lands based upon 
the well results. This was a significant upgrade to Calima’s resource estimates.   

Summary of 2020 activities 

Tommy Lakes 

On 15 April 2020, Calima acquired compression facilities, associated pipelines and related infrastructure at Tommy Lakes, 
British Columbia from Enerplus Corp. (“Enerplus”) in an asset acquisition, for a nominal transaction fee (the “Tommy Lakes 
Acquisition”).  The Tommy Lakes Acquisition included three (3) compressor stations, approximately 30 km of pipeline, a camp, 
sales gas meter (the “Tommy Lakes Facility”).   

The Tommy Lakes Facility is currently shut-in but may be brought back online pending a final investment decision.  The Tommy 
Lakes Facility processes gas and condensate and has an estimated replacement value of $80 million.  Calima’s Montney lands 
are  now  considered  to  be  ready-for-development  with  all  permits  and  authorisations  in  place,  allowing  production  to 
commence as early as 6 months from an FID and winter construction season. 

6 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
   
The  Facilities  provide  cost-efficient  access  to  North  River  Midstream  pipeline, 
Jedney  processing  facility  and  access  to  regional  markets  via  major  pipeline 
networks including NGTL, Alliance and T-North.   The Tommy Lakes Infrastructure 
includes gathering pipelines, compression facilities and associated facilities capable 
of  transporting  up  to  50  Mmcf/d  of  gas  and  1,500-2,000  bbls/d  of  well-head 
condensate.  

The Tommy Lake infrastructure continues to be maintained by Sproule and 
Associates with their local field operations staff. Work was completed throughout 
the summer to ensure winterisation of camp facilities and preservation of 
infrastructure. The solar power generation units that were installed utilised very 
little external fuel to generate electricity over the summer months. The units are 
required to maintain cathodic protection on the pipeline and facilities to prevent 
corrosion by inducing an electrical current. These units offset the use of diesel 
generators that would otherwise consume more than 50,000l of fuel annually. 

Calima  has  obtained  the  necessary  regulatory  approvals  to  tie-in  its  wells  to  the 
Tommy Lakes Facility. In December 2020, Calima elected not to exercise the option 
to  acquire  the  gas  wells  from  Enerplus  after  receiving  notice  of  an  accelerated 
timeline from Enerplus to abandon the wells. 

Wellsite Production Facility Approval 

The Company retains a permit from the OGC to construct a production facility at its Montney pad location.   The facilities include 
tankage, electrical generation metering and a control centre.  The construction design is modular, allowing for the construction off-
site in a controlled environment only final tie-ins once placed on pre-set foundations at site.  This ensures an efficient, cost-effective 
installation within the winter. 

While the initial approval is for the existing two liquids rich Montney wells drilled at the beginning of 2019, it is envisaged that 
additional modules would be added to the pad site to accommodate a 20 well pad.       

10-year Continuation Lease granted over Calima Lands 

As a result of the 2019 drilling campaign, the Company converted 49 sections (33,643 acres) into 10 year Continuation Lease. This 
represented 56% of Calima’s Core Lands. Importantly, there is no obligation to drill any further wells to hold the Lease until 2029.  
The remainder of the Calima Lands are held under 5-year drilling licenses which require drilling to enable further conversions to be 
made.  Most of the remaining licences over the Core Lands mature in 2022.  

Field Development Plan & Final Investment Decision 

Completion of the Tommy Lakes acquisition is a necessary component of the Field Development Plan (“FDP”); elevating the Calima 
Lands to being a  project ready-for-development.    Calima does  not intend to undertake further  development work until a Final 
Investment  Decision  (“FID”)  has  been  taken.    Calima’s  strategy  is  to  develop  its  Montney  acreage  position  through  a  strategic 
partnership or funding arrangement. Calima continues to seek strategic partnership and looks towards a final investment decision 
for project development within the next 18 months. 

Independent Resource Report   

On 14 July 2020 the Company announced that McDaniel’s had following the acquisition of Tommy Lakes advised that 248.9 billion 
cubic  feet  of  gas  and  12.4  million  barrels  of  light  oil  and  natural  gas  liquids  of  Contingent  Resources  had  been  upgraded  to 
Development Pending. The Company now regards a significant portion its Montney acreage as being development ready subject 
only to securing the necessary funding to construct a tie-in pipeline. Upon the Company securing funding then according to the 
reporting standards these Development Pending resources could be classified as 2P reserves.  The reserves were again recompleted 
for the year ended 31 December 2020 and announced on 30 April 2021 with no material variances to the resources. 

McDaniel have evaluated crude oil, natural gas and natural gas products prospective resources of the Calima Lands according to 
2018 PRMS standards. McDaniel’s Best Estimates of total un-risked contingent and prospective resources within the Calima Lands 
are summarised in Tables 1A/1B and Figure 1.

Notes to accompany Tables 1A & 1B 

(1) Natural Gas Liquids refers to the product recovered after processing.  Approximately 10 bbl/MMcf of the product recovered after processing is also condensate 
(C5) see also Note 2. 

(2) Sum of Condensate and Natural Gas Liquids. Based on Company drilling results public domain data and the results of wells drilled on adjacent land McDaniel 
estimate that the average condensate to gas ratio for wells in the Calima Lands would be 22.5 bbl/MMcf (wellhead condensate/gas ratio)  for the Middle Montney 
and 17.5bbl/MMcf for the Upper Montney. Additional  liquids 25bbl/MMCF would be stripped from  the gas upon processing  comprising  6 bbl/MMcf of  C3,  9 
bbl/MMcf of C4, and 10 bbl/MMcf of C5+ (Condensate). 

(3) Barrels of Oil Equivalent based on 6:1 for Natural Gas, 1:1 for Condensate and C5+, 1:1 for Ethane,1:1 for Propane, 1:1 for Butanes. BOE's may be misleading, 
particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip 
and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. 

(4) Contingent Resources (2C) - Those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations by application 
of development projects, but which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable owing to one or more contingencies. Contingencies may include 
factors such as economic, legal, environmental, political, and regulatory matters, or a lack of markets. Contingent resources are further categorized in accordance 
with the level of certainty associated with the estimates and may be sub-classified based on project maturity and/or characterized by the economic status. The 
Contingent Resources (2C) in Tommy Lakes have been sub-classified as a “Development on Hold” and “Development Pending” as the accumulation is well defined 
and does represent a viable drilling target. The Contingent Resources have been classified using a deterministic method of estimation having an effective date of 
31 March 2021. 

(5) Prospective resources (2U) are the estimated quantities of petroleum that may potentially be recovered by the application of a future development project(s) 
related to undiscovered accumulations.  These estimates have both an associated risk of discovery and a risk of development. Further exploration appraisal and 
evaluation is required to determine the existence of a significant quantity of potentially moveable hydrocarbon. The Prospective Resources (2U) in Tommy Lakes 
have been sub-classified as a “Prospect” as the accumulation is well defined and does represent a viable drilling target. The prospective resources have also been 
classified using a deterministic method having an evaluation date of 31 March 2021. 

(6) Pre-Development – A pre-development study is an intermediate step in the development of a project scenario. The amount of information that is available for 
the reservoir of interest is greater than for a conceptual study. In particular, the petroleum initially in place has been reasonably well defined and the remaining 
uncertainty lies largely in the recovery factor and the economic viability.  

(7) The resources have been calculated on a reduced land position of 58,981 acres in which Calima Energy holds a 100% working interest.  This includes 33,643 
acres (49 sections) held under a 10-year Continuation Lease (valid to 2029) and the balance held leases that expiring in 2021/2. 

Paradise Well (100% WI) 

The  Paradise  well  (Official  designation;  Boundary  5-1-86-15  00/11-01-
08615W6/0) is located 40 kilometres to the northeast of Fort St John and 
180 km to the southeast of the Company’s extensive Montney interests in 
northeast British Columbia. 

Quarterly Gross Production 
Oil (bbls)

Calima undertook the installation of additional oil storage at this location in 
September 2020 in advance of winter. This additional 800bbl of oil storage 
on location will ensure a higher number of days on production, as the well 
will not be shut in due to poor weather. The poor weather results in road 
conditions that are unfavourable to the transport of oil, and creates damage 
to the access roads that is costly to repair.

The  well  was  placed  on  production  in  January  2019.  In  March  2019  the 
Company,  announced  that  it  has  forward  sold  CAD1,200,000  of  net  production  revenue  from  the  Paradise  well  for  the 
consideration of CAD1,000,000. The forward sale facility will be repaid monthly from net well production payments over a 
period of 36 months maturing 1 April 2022. The Balance owing on the facility is C$~810,821, and in March 2021 both parties 
agreed  to  convert  the  balance  of  the  loan  to  equity  subject  to  shareholder  approval  and  completion  of  the  Blackspur 
acquisition.  The well produced  a total of 6,318 barrels of oil during the year ended 2020 averaging  ~23barrels of oil per 
producing day. Quarterly production is summarised below.

Acquisition of Blackspur Oil Corp.  

On 25th February 2021 Calima announced it had entered into an acquisition agreement with to acquire 100% of the issued 
share capital of Blackspur Oil Corp. ("Blackspur"), a privately held Canadian company which owns producing oil and natural 
gas assets in two core areas within Alberta, at Brooks and Thorsby ("the Acquisition").  This acquisition was completed on 
30th April 2021.  

Blackspur’s operations include two high quality assets with 2P reserves of 22.5 MMboe, 1P reserves of 16.7 MMboe and PDP 
reserves of 5.4 MMboe. Q4 2020 production average of 2,600 boe/d (70% oil).  The successful merger with Blackspur has 
transformed Calima to a high margin oil & gas producer leveraged to WTI pricing plus exposure to rising natural gas prices via 
its strategic holdings in the Montney Formation.   

Calima forecasts 3,000 boe/d average production rate for CY 2021 which at US$60 WTI is forecast to deliver ~C$28 million of 
operating cash flow for the 8 months to December 2021. The forecast production exit rate for CY 2022 is 5,500 boe/d.  

Recently Blackspur drilled two horizontal oil wells targeting the Sunburst Formation and performed one re-entry operation 
adding a horizontal leg into an existing horizontal Sunburst producing well. The total cost for the three well program was 
approximately C$2.2 million, which was 22% under budget. Stabilised flow results will be advised to the market shortly. 

During May 2021, the Company will commence a 3 well drilling campaign in the Brooks (Sunburst) area followed by 3 well 
campaign in the Thorsby (Sparky) area in June/ July.

Officers’ indemnities and insurance 
The Group has, during the financial year, entered into an agreement with the Directors and certain officers to indemnify these 
individuals against any claims and related expenses which arise as a result of work completed in their respective capabilities. 

During the financial year, the Group has paid premiums in respect of a contract insuring all the Directors and Officers of Calima 
Energy Limited against costs incurred in defending proceedings except for conduct involving: 

(a) 
(b) 

a wilful breach of duty; or 
a contravention of sections 182 or 183 of the Corporations Act 2001, 

as permitted by section 199B of the Corporations Act 2001. The total amount of insurance contract premiums paid in the year 
was $49,350 (2019: $66,138). 

Indemnification of auditors 
The Group has agreed to indemnify its Auditors, BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd, to the extent permitted by law, against any claim by 
a third party arising from Calima Energy Limited’s breach of their agreement. The indemnity stipulates that Calima Energy 
Limited will meet the full amount of any such liabilities including a reasonable amount of legal costs. 

Remuneration report (Audited) 
The Directors and key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the 
activities of the Group. Remuneration levels for Directors and key management personnel are competitively set to attract and 
retain appropriately qualified and experienced Directors and executives. 

The Board is responsible for remuneration policies and practices. The Remuneration Committee assesses the appropriateness 
of the nature and amounts of remuneration of officers and employees on a periodic basis and makes recommendations to 
the  Board.  The  Remuneration  Committee,  where  appropriate,  seeks  independent  advice  on  remuneration  policies  and 
practices, including remuneration packages and terms of employment. No independent advice was received in the current 
year. The Group’s securities trading policy regulates dealings by Directors, officers and employees in securities issued by the 
Group. The policy imposes trading restrictions on all Directors, key management personnel and employees of the Group and 
their related companies who possess inside information. 

The  remuneration  structures  are  designed  to  attract  suitably  qualified  candidates,  reward  the  achievement  of  strategic 
objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders.  The remuneration structures take into 
account  a  number  of  factors,  including  length  of  service,  particular  experience  of  the  individual  concerned,  and  overall 
performance of the Group. 

The Group has in place the following incentive plans: 

• 

A Short-Term Incentive Plan providing for cash bonuses to be paid annually based on a combination of individual 
and corporate performance over the previous year.  

•  Management  options  providing  long  term  equity  incentives  vesting  on  the  certain  continuous  employment 

conditions; and 
A Performance Rights Plan (the “ASIC Relief Plan”) for directors and employees  

• 

A  summary  of  these  Plans  is  set  out  below.  The  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  these  incentive  plans  achieve  the  following 
outcomes: 
• 
• 
• 
• 

Alignment of the interests of the Group’s employees with that of shareholders; 
Retention of staff and management to pursue the Group’s strategy and goals; 
Fair and reasonable reward for past individual and Group performance; and 
Incentive to deliver future individual and Group performance.

Performance Rights Plan   
The Plan is open to any eligible persons who are full-time or permanent part time employees of the Company, or a related 
body corporate which includes directors, the company secretary and officers or other such persons as the Board determines   
to be eligible to receive grants of Performance Rights under the Plan. Subject to the satisfaction of the vesting conditions 
given to eligible participants, each Performance Right vest to one Share. 

The Performance Rights are issued for nil cash consideration and no consideration will be payable upon the vesting of the 
Performance Rights. Vesting conditions, if any, are determined by the Board from time to time and set out in individual offers 
for the grant of Performance Rights. Shares issued upon vesting may be freely transferred subject to compliance with the 
Group’s securities trading rules. 

As  part  of  the  merger  acquisition  of  Blackspur,  it  is  proposed  that  96,000,000,  100%  of  the  Performance  Rights  will  vest 
following continued service of the holder as a consultant or employee of the Company for a period of 2 years from the date 
of their appointment, but to the extent that has not been achieved the Incentive Performance Rights will vest as follows: 
48,000,000 Class A performance rights (which vest upon the VWAP of Calima Shares trading on the ASX being at least 1.0 
cents over 20 consecutive trading days (on which Calima Shares have actually traded)) and 48,000,000 Class B performance 
rights (which vest upon the VWAP of Shares trading on the ASX being at least 1.5 cents over 20 consecutive trading days (on 
which Calima Shares have actually traded)). 

It is proposed that Messrs. Whiddon, Lawrence and Stein will be issued 20,000,000, 10,000,000 and 6,000,000 Performance 
Rights respectively, subject to Calima Shareholder approval at the Calima General Meeting on 15 April 2021.  

The vesting conditions applicable to all of the outstanding unvested Rights are set out below: 

 The Performance Rights will vest, subject to completion of a minimum of 18 months’ continuous service, on satisfaction of at 
least two of the following three conditions: 

• 
• 
• 

The VWAP for Calima shares for any period of 30 consecutive trading days being above $0.15; 
Calima raising more than $5 million (excluding the Public Offer) at an average price of $0.15; and 
Calima’s market capitalisation exceeding $50 million (based on the VWAP for Calima shares for any period of 30 
consecutive trading days). 

The Performance Rights will vest immediately on a change of control of Calima that occurs at a price per share greater than 
$0.15 and expire regardless on or before 29 August 2021. 

Management Options 
The management options were granted to the management team and provided long term equity incentives vesting on the 
certain continuous employment conditions in 2017. 

The Management Options were issued for nil cash consideration in two classes, Class A and Class B. 

The Class A Management Options are exercisable at $0.09 per Option once vested. The Class B Management Options are 
exercisable at $0.12 per Option once vested. All of the Management Options expire 25 August 2022. 

The Management Options will vest, subject to completion of 18 months’ continuous service, on satisfaction of at least two of 
the following three conditions: 

• 
• 
• 

The VWAP for Shares for any period of 30 consecutive trading days being above $0.09; 
The Company raising more than $5 million at an average price of $0.09; and 
The Company’s market capitalisation exceeding $50 million (based on the VWAP for Shares for any period of 30 
consecutive trading days). 

The Management Options will vest immediately on a Change of Control that occurs at an average price per share greater than 
$0.09. 

Short Term Incentive Plan 
The Short-Term Incentive Plan provides for the payment of discretionary cash bonuses to Executive Directors, full time or part 
time employees or contractors of the Group annually in respect of their performance and the overall performance of the 
Group during the previous financial year. The Plan establishes maximum bonus levels as a percentage of salary by grade of 
employee and a guideline framework for calibrating the actual bonus against the maximum according to certain parameters 
of individual and corporate performance. However, all bonus payments are entirely at the discretion of the Board and there 
are no contractual bonus entitlements under the Plan. 

15 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Non-executive Directors 
There  are  no  termination  or  retirement  benefits  for  non-executive  Directors  (other  than  statutory  superannuation).  The 
maximum available pool of fees is set by shareholders in general meeting and is currently $350,000 per annum. 

Fixed remuneration for executives 
Fixed remuneration for executives consists of base remuneration (which is calculated on a total cost basis and includes any 
Fringe  Benefit  Tax  charges  related  to  employee  benefits),  as  well  as  employer  contributions  to  superannuation  funds.  
Remuneration levels are reviewed annually by the Board where applicable. The process consists of a review of Group and 
individual  performance,  length  of  service,  relevant  comparative  remuneration  internally  and  externally  and  market 
conditions. 

Service contracts 
Remuneration and other terms of employment for Executive Directors and other key management personnel are formalised 
in service agreements and letters of employment (conditions of employment). All parties continue to be employed until their 
employment is terminated. Employment contracts can be terminated by either party by providing 3 months’ written notice. 
The Company may make payment in lieu of notice.  

Key management personnel are entitled to receive, on termination of employment, statutory entitlements of vested annual 
and long service leave, together with post-employment benefits. Any options or rights awarded but not vested at the time of 
resignation will be cancelled unless the Board advises otherwise at its own discretion. 

Employment contracts do not prescribe how remuneration levels are modified year to year. Remuneration levels are reviewed 
each year with consideration of employment market conditions, changes in the scope of the role performed by the employee 
and changes in remuneration policy set by the Remuneration Committee. 

Remuneration 
Details of the remuneration of the Directors of the Company and key management personnel are set out in the following 
tables. 

Glenn Whiddon 
Alan Stein  
Brett Lawrence 

The key management personnel of the Company include the following Directors and executive officers: 
• 
• 
• 
•  Neil Hackett -  resigned 11 November 2020 
• 
Jon Taylor - resigned 20 January 2020 
•  Mark Freeman  - appointed 7 May  2020 

The cash bonus and share-based payment rights detailed in the table below are performance related. Share-based payment 
options are related to ongoing service conditions with the Company. While options issued have no performance conditions, 
they  were  issued  at  an  exercise  price  out  of  the  money  at  grant  date,  which  encourages  employees  to  remain  with  the 
Company and work towards achieving share price growth. The value of options and rights shown in the tables below represent 
the vesting expense, measured in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, for awards granted in the current or 
previous financial years. 

The Corporations Act requires disclosure of the Company’s remuneration policy to contain a discussion of the Company’s 
earnings, performance and the effect of the Company’s performance on shareholder wealth in the reporting period and the 
four previous financial years. The table below provides a five-year financial summary to 31 December 2020:

1. 

Corporate information 

The consolidated financial report of Calima Energy Limited for the year ended 31 December 2020 was authorised for issue in 
accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 31 March 2021.  

Calima Energy Limited is a Company limited by shares incorporated in Australia by shares which are publicly traded on the 
Australian Securities Exchange. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ 
report. 

2. 

Summary of significant accounting polices 

Basis of preparation 

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncement of the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board. The financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis, except where stated. 

The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  the  use  of  certain  critical  accounting  estimates.  It  also  requires 
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies.  The areas involving a higher 
degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are 
disclosed where appropriate. 

For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Group is a for-profit entity. 

Except  as  disclosed  the  accounting  policies  set  out  below  have  been  applied  consistently  to  all  periods  presented  in  the 
consolidated financial report and by all entities in the consolidated entity. 

a)  Compliance statement 
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as 
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. 

b)  Adoption of new and revised Accounting Standards 
The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by  
the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. 

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. 

c)  Going concern and basis of accounting 
The financial report has 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. The Directors are of the opinion that 
the Group can meet its obligations as and when they fall due.  

For the year ended 31 December 2020 the Group recorded a loss of ($6,394,743) (2019: $1,583,603) and had net cash outflows 
from operating activities of $661,017 (2019: $2,126,363). The statement of financial position displays a net working capital 
surplus of $79,295 (2019: $5,265,770). Included within this is cash on hand of $1,697,087 (2019: $3,661,879). 

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on it completing the $37m raising as part of the Blackspur 
acquisition or undertaking additional alternative fundraisings.   

These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a 
going concern and, therefore, it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.  

The Directors have reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will continue as a going concern due to the firm commitments 
in place for $37m as part of the Blackspur acquisition and as announced on 16 March 2021.  

Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities 
other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. This financial 
report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or liabilities 
that may be necessary should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2020 

d)  Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic 
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the 
Group based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply 
chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the Group operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently 
appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or 
conditions  which  may  impact  the  consolidated  entity  unfavourably  as  at  the  reporting  date  or  subsequently  as  a  result  of  the 
Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

e)  Basis of consolidation 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  comprise  the  financial  statements  of  Calima  Energy  Limited  and  its  subsidiaries  (as 
outlined in Note 21) (the Group) as at and for the period ended 31 December each year.  

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has power over the investee such that the Group is able to direct the 
relevant activities, has exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvements with the investee and has the ability to use 
its  power  over  the  investee  to  affect  the  amount  of  the  investor’s  returns.  The  financial  statements  of  subsidiaries  are 
included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. 

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent 
accounting  policies.  In  preparing  the  consolidated  financial  statements,  all  intercompany  balances,  transactions,  unrealised 
gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full. 

Non-controlling interests are allocated their share of net profit after tax in the statement of comprehensive income and are 
presented within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from the equity of the owners of the 
parent. Losses are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance. 

A  change  in  the  ownership  interest  of  a  subsidiary  that  does  not  result  in  a  loss  of  control  is  accounted  for  as  an  equity 
transaction. 

f)  Foreign currency translation 
Functional and presentation currency 
Both  the  functional  and  presentation  currency  of  Calima  Energy  Limited  is  Australian  dollars  ($).  The  Canadian  subsidiary 
functional currency is Canadian Dollars and the United Kingdom subsidiary functional currency is Great British Pounds which 
are translated to the presentation currency. 

Transactions and balances 
Transactions  in  foreign  currencies  are  initially  recorded  in  the  functional  currency  by  applying  the  average  exchange  rate 
prevailing in the period of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated 
at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date.  Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a 
foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured 
at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. 
Translation of Group Companies’ functional currency to presentation currency 
The results of the Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries are translated into Australian Dollars (presentation currency) as 
at the date of each transaction, or the average exchange rate over the year. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange 
rates prevailing at reporting date. 

Exchange variations resulting from the translation are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity until the 
net investment is disposed, at which time, the cumulative amount is reclassified to the profit and loss. 

g)  Operating segments 
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and 
incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose 
operating result are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be 
allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. 

Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers – being 
the executive management team.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2020 

The Group aggregates two or more operating segments when they have similar economic characteristics, and the segments 
are similar in each of the following respects: 
•  Nature of the products and services 
•  Nature of the production processes 
• 
•  Methods used to distribute the products or provide the services, and if applicable 
•  Nature of the regulatory environment 

Type or class of customer for the products and services 

Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 are reported separately. However, an operating 
segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about the segment would 
be useful to users of the financial statements. 

h)  Cash and cash equivalents 
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid 
investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which 
are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in 
current liabilities on the statement of financial position. 

i)  Exploration and evaluation expenditure 
Exploration and evaluation expenditure, including the costs of acquiring the licences/permits, are capitalised as exploration 
and evaluation assets on an area of interest basis.  Costs incurred before the Group has obtained the legal rights to explore an 
area are recognised in the profit and loss component of the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income. 
  Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights of the area of interest are current and either: 
(i) 

the expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation or from sale of the 
area of interest; or 

(ii) 

activities  in  the  area  of  interest  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 in relation to, the area of interest are continuing. 

Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount 
exceeds the recoverable amount (see impairment accounting policy (r).  For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration 
and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which the exploration activity relates.  The cash generating unit 
shall not be larger than the area of interest. 

Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of oil or gas in an area of interest are demonstrable, 
exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified to 
oil and gas property and development assets within property, plant and equipment. 
When an area of interest is abandoned or the Directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated costs in respect of 
that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made. 

Investments 

j) 
Investments are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial measurement, except for 
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value 
depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on both the business model within which such assets are 
held and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset unless an accounting mismatch is being avoided. 

Financial  assets  are  derecognised  when  the  rights  to  receive  cash  flows  have  expired  or  have  been  transferred  and  the 
consolidated entity has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. 

The Group’s unlisted investment is held as a financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, whereby fair value movements 
are recognised in profit or loss.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2020 

k)  Property, plant and equipment 
Property,  plant  and  equipment  is  stated  at  historical  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation  and  any  accumulated  impairment 
losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item.  

The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an 
item when that cost is incurred if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the item will flow to the 
Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.  All other costs are recognised in profit or loss as an expense as 
incurred. 
Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items 
of property, plant and equipment. 

Depreciation 
Depreciation is charged to profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of 
property, plant and equipment.  The estimated useful lives in the current and comparative periods are as follows: 

• 

Plant and equipment over 2 to 20 years 

The residual value, the useful life and the depreciation method applied to an asset are reassessed at least annually. 

Derecognition 
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the 
carrying amount of the item) is included in profit and loss in the period the item is derecognised. 

l)  Trade and other payables 
Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost and due to their short-term nature, they are not discounted. These 
amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are 
unpaid.  The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 

m)  Provisions and employee benefits 
Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past 
event, it is probable the consolidated entity will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of 
the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle 
the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the 
time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in 
the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. 

Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary  benefits,  annual  leave  and  accumulating  sick  leave  which  are 
expected  to  be  settled  within  12  months  of  the  reporting  date  are  recognised  in  other  payables  in  respect  of  employees’ 
services  up  to  the  reporting  date  and  are  measured  at  the  amounts  expected  to  be  paid  when  the  liabilities  are  settled.  
Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rates paid or payable. 

The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of 
expected  future  payments  to  be  made  in  respect  of  services  provided  by  employees  up  to  the  reporting  date  using  the 
projected  unit  credit  method.    Consideration  is  given  to  expected  future  wage  and  salary  levels,  experience  of  employee 
departures and periods of service.  

Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on corporate bonds with terms to maturity 
and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. 

Termination benefits 
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or when an employee 
accepts  voluntary  redundancy  in  exchange  for  these  benefits.  The  Group  recognised  termination  benefits  when  it  is 
demonstrably  committed  to  either  terminating  the  employment  of  current  employees  according  to  a  detailed  formal  plan 
without  possibility  of  withdrawal  or  providing  termination  benefits  as  a  result  of  an  offer  made  to  encourage  voluntary 
redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after reporting date are discounted to present value.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2020 

n)  Share-based payments 
The  Group  provides  benefits  to  employees  (including  key  management  personnel)  in  the  form  of  share-based  payments, 
whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares.  The fair value of equity instruments granted 
is recognised as an employee expense with a corresponding increase in equity.  The fair value is measured at grant date and 
spread over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the equity instruments.   

The fair value of the performance rights and share options granted is measured  using appropriate valuation methodology. 
These models take into account the terms and conditions upon which the rights and options were granted and the probability 
of achieving each required milestone. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, on straight-line basis 
from the grant date to the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (“vesting date”).  The 
amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number that vest. 
The dilutive  effect, if any, of outstanding  equity instruments is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of 
earnings per share. 

o)  Contributed equity 
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. 

Income tax and other taxes 

p) 
The  income  tax  expense  or  benefit  for  the  period  is  the  tax  payable  on  the  current  period’s  taxable  income  based  on  the 
notional income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary 
differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused 
tax losses. 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future 
taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of 
investments  in  controlled  entities  where  the  parent  entity  is  able  to  control  the  timing  of  the  reversal  of  the  temporary 
differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets 
are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction.  
The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the 
deferred tax asset or liability.  An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an 
asset or a liability.  No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a 
transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or 
taxable profit or loss. 

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. 

Other taxes 
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of Government Sales Tax (“GST”) except: 
•  Where the GST incurred on the 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 
Receivable and payable are stated with the amount of GST included 

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

For the year ended 31 December 2020 

q)  Earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity holders of the Group, excluding any 
costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during 
the financial period, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the period. 

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 shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares. 

Impairment of non-financial assets 

r) 
Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate 
that  the  carrying  amount  may  not  be  recoverable.    An  impairment  loss  is  recognised  for  the  amount  by  which  the  asset’s 
carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.  

The  recoverable  amount  is  the  higher  of  an  asset’s  fair  value  less  costs  of  disposal  and  value  in  use.    For  the  purposes  of 
assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows (cash 
generating units). 

s)  Accounting for the Borrowings associated with the Paradise Well 
On 20 March 2019, the company announced that it had forward sold C$1,200,000 of net production revenue from the Paradise 
well.  Calima owns 100% of the Paradise well (Official designation; Boundary 5-1-86-15 00/11-01-08615W6/0), located 40 km 
to the northeast of Fort St John and 180 km to the southeast of the Company’s extensive Montney interests in northeast British 
Columbia.  The forward sale facility will be repaid monthly from net well production payments over a period of 36 months. 

This transaction is accounted for as a borrowing which has been in part been set-off by the carrying amount of the oil and gas 
property (which has thus been derecognised). Net proceeds from the operation of the well are recognised as a single line item 
in  Profit  and  Loss.  The  borrowing  is  accounted  for  as  a  financial  liability  at  amortised  cost  with  an  interest  expense  being 
calculated  based  on  the  effective  interest  rate.  The  effective  interest  rate  was  the  rate  that  exactly  discounts  the  carrying 
amount of the borrowing and the expected payments against it over the life of the loan. 

Significant accounting estimates and judgments 
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made judgements that have significant effects on 
the amounts recognised in the financial statements. In additions, the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often 
determined  based  on  estimates  and  assumptions  of  future  events.  The  judgements  and  estimates  which  have  the  most 
significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows: 

Asset acquisiton 
The asset acquisition of the Tommy Lakes Infrastructure does not meet the definition of a business combination and as such 
the transaction has been accounted for as an asset acquisition. Purchase prices related to asset acquisitions are allocated to 
the underlying acquired assets and liabilities based on cost and/or their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. The 
determination of fair value requires the Company to make assumptions, estimates and judgements regarding future events. 
The  allocation  process  is  inherently  subjective  and  impacts  the  amounts  assigned  to  individually  identifiable  assets  and 
liabilities. As a result, the purchase price allocated impact Calima Energy Limited’s reported assets and liabilities, future net 
earnings due to the impact of future depreciation and amortisation expense and impairment tests. No goodwill or deferred tax 
implications will arise on the acquisition and transaction costs of the acquisition will be included in the capitalised cost of the 
asset.  

Rehabilitation provision 
As part of the acquisition the consolidated entity acquired the related environmental and rehabilitation liabilities.  A provision 
has been made for the present value of anticipated costs for future rehabilitation of the facilities. The consolidated entity's 
exploration  activities  are  subject  to  various  laws  and  regulations  governing  the  protection  of  the  environment.  The 
consolidated entity recognises management's best estimate for assets retirement obligations and site rehabilitations in the 
period  in  which  they  are  incurred.  Actual  costs  incurred  in  the  future  periods  could  differ  materially  from  the  estimates. 
Additionally, future changes to environmental laws and regulations, life of facility estimates and discount rates could affect 
the carrying amount of this provision. 

Equity investments 
The investment related to a shareholding of 8.5% interest in Bahari Holding Company Limited.  In light of the current 

              economic  and low oil price environment the company has taken a prudent view to impair its interest in Bahari Holding 
              Company Limited.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2020 

Foreign currency translation 
Under the Accounting Standards, each entity within the Group is required to determine its functional currency, which is the 
currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. In arriving at this determination, management 
gives priority to the currency that influences the labour, materials and other costs of exploration activities as they consider this 
to be a primary indicator of the functional currency. 

Income and associated taxes 
The Group estimates the existence and amount of its tax liabilities based on its understanding of the tax laws in the relevant 
jurisdictions. In the case where the final tax outcomes are different from amounts initially assessed, such differences will impact 
the amount of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets recorded. At 31 December 2020, no liability has been recorded in 
respect of income or other associated tax obligations.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2020 

The deductible temporary differences and the tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation.  Deferred tax assets have not 
been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the 
Group  can  utilise  benefits.  The  Group  has  unrecognised  tax  losses  of  $7,438,411  (31  December  2019:  $6,454,744).  The 
unrecognised losses for 2020 all originate in Australia. All losses are revenue in nature.  

Tax consolidation 

For  the  purposes  of  income  taxation,  the  Group  and  its  100%  controlled  Australian  entity  have  not  elected  to  form  a  tax 
consolidated group.

(i)During  the  previous  year,  the  Group  entered  into  an  arrangement  to  borrow  CAD1,000,000.  This  facility,  inclusive  of 
CAD200,000  cash  interest,  is  repayable  through  monthly  remittance  of  net  cash  flows  from  the  Paradise  Well  (official 
designation: Boundary 5-1-86-15 00/11-01-08615W6/0, located 40km north-east of Fort St. John and 180km southeast of 
the Group’s core interests in the Montney) to the lender, over a maximum period of thirty-six (36) months to 1 April 2022. 
At the end of the term, any sum that has not been settled through the net cash flows from the well are payable in cash upon 
maturity.  

Additionally, the loan contains a conversion feature. At any time between the 1 October 2021 and 1 April 2022, the lender 
may convert the outstanding balance of the loan into shares in Calima Energy Limited (at a price of the 20-day VWAP prior 
to such election), subject to shareholder approval. Furthermore, at any time, the lender may take ownership of the Well in 
full and final settlement of any liability under this agreement.

Calima estimates for abandonment and remediation for the current Calima assets sits at a combined total of CAD 4,591,153  
The majority of this estimate relates to the cost of reclamation of the Montney padsite. 

Calima Energy Inc currently holds the license to 3 wells in NE British Columbia as summarised below:  

Paradise Well 
The first of these wells is a producing oil well with a single well facility license associated with it.  All of this equipment is 
contained  within  a  single  surface  lease  at  5-1-86-15  W6M.    This  location  is  on  flat  ground  and  required  minimal  earth 
movement during construction. 

Montney wells and Pad 
The second and third wells are the Montney gas wells located at A-54-C/94-G-9.  These wells were drilled from one pad.  
Adjacent to this pad is a water storage facility that houses 4 X 6,500m3 C-rings in a clay lined engineered berm.  Two of these 
C-rings currently contain produced flow back water from the wells and the other two have an inventory of fresh water.

Segment reporting 

AASB 8 Operating Segments requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed 
by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its 
performance,  and  for  which  discrete  financial  information  is  available.  In  the  case  of  the  Group  the  CODM  are  the  executive 
management team and all information reported to the CODM is based on the consolidated results of the Group as one operating 
segment, as the Group’s activities related to oil and gas exploration.   

Accordingly, the Group has only one reportable segment and the results are the same as the Group results.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2020 

Risk  management  policies  are  established  to  identify  and  analyse  the  risks  faced  by  the  Group,  to  set  appropriate  risk  limits  and 
controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits.  Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes 
in market conditions and Group’s activities.  

The  Group  Audit  Committee  oversees  how  management  monitors  compliance  with  the  Group’s  risk  management  policies  and 
procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. 

The Group’s principal financial instruments are cash, short-term deposits, receivables and payables. 

Interest rate risk 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument or cash flows associated with the instrument will fluctuate due to 
changes in market interest rates.  Interest rate risk arises from fluctuations in interest bearing financial assets and liabilities that the 
Group uses.  Interest bearing assets comprise cash and cash equivalents which are considered to be short-term liquid assets.  It is the 
Group’s policy to settle trade payables within the credit terms allowed and therefore not incur interest on overdue balances.  The 
following table sets out the carrying amount, by maturity, of the financial instruments that are exposed to interest rate risk:

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments 
The Group does not account for any fixed rate financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.  Therefore, a change in 
interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss. 

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments 
A change of 25 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the 
amounts shown in the following.

Credit risk 
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual 
obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers, cash and cash equivalents. 

The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties.  It is the Group policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit 
terms are subject to credit verification procedures.  In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result 
that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant. The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carry value of the receivable, net 
of any allowance for doubtful debts. 

With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, the Group’s 
exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter  party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these 
instruments.  The Group does not place funds on terms longer than 120 days and has the facility to place the deposit funds with more 
than one bank. 

Exposure to credit risk 
The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.  The Group’s maximum exposure to

The Group is not significantly exposed to credit risk from its operating activities, however the Board constantly monitors customer 
receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial asset. The Group 
does not  hold collateral as security. No material exposure is considered to exist  by virtue of the  possible  non-performance of the 
counterparties to financial instruments and cash deposits. Credit rating of cash is A+; all funds are held by Royal Bank of Canada and 
NAB which have government guarantees on deposits.  
Impairment losses 
None of the Group’s receivables are past due.  The Group’s trade receivables are all current at the reporting date. 

Liquidity risk 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.  The Group’s approach to 
managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both 
normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. 

The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility.

Capital risk management 
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide 
returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.  
The Group’s overall strategy remains unchanged from 31 December 2020. 

The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt (trade payables and Income tax (receivable)/payable detailed in Notes 10 and 
4 offset by cash and bank balances detailed in Note 5) and equity of the Group (comprising issued capital, reserves, offset by retained 
losses detailed in Notes 13 and 14). 

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.  

The Group’s Board of Directors reviews the capital structure on an ongoing basis. As part of this review the Board considers the cost 
of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. In order to maintain the capital structure, the Group may issue fresh 
equity, return capital to shareholders or farm out part of its assets.  

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities 
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and non-interest bearing financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group approximate 
their carrying value. 

Foreign currency risk 
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in 
foreign exchange rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily 
to  the  Group’s  previous  operating  activities  (when  revenue  or  expenses  is  denominated  in  a  different  currency  from  the  Group’s 
presentation currency) and the Group’s net investment in foreign subsidiaries. Due to previous operations, the majority of the cash 
held at 31 December 2020 was denominated in Canadian Dollars 

As a result of significant cash balance denominated in Canadian Dollars (CAD$), the Group’s statement of financial position can be 
affected significantly by movements in the CAD$ / A$ exchange rates.       

The Group had the following exposure to CAD$ foreign currency:

The  Group  is  mainly  exposed  to  CAD$.  The  following  table  details  the  Group’s  sensitivity  to  a  15%  increase  and  decrease  in  the 
Australian  dollar  against  the  CAD$.  Management  continually  monitor  exchange  rate  forecasts  and  assess  the  impact  of  possible 
changes in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis only includes outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items 
and adjusted their translation at the period end of a 15% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number indicates a decrease in 
loss where the Australian dollar weakens against the Canadian Dollar.

Share based payments are provided to Directors, employees, consultants and other advisors. The issue to each individual Director, 
consultant or advisor is controlled by the Board and the ASX Listing Rules. Terms and conditions of the payments, including the grant 
date, vesting date, exercise price and expiry date are determined by the Board, subject to shareholder approval where required. 

Management Options 
20,000,000 Management Options were granted on 29 August 2017, in two equally sized tranches with an exercise price of $0.09 and 
$0.12 per share respectively. The Management Options vest upon the meeting of certain criteria. Each Management Option converts 
into one ordinary share of Calima Energy Limited on exercise. No amounts are paid or are payable by the recipient on receipt of the 
Management  Option,  and  they  carry  neither  rights  of  dividends  nor  voting  rights.  The  expense  recognised  in  the  year  relates  to 
spreading the fair value (measured at grant date) of these Management Options over the expected vesting period. 

Performance Rights 
19,450,000 Performance Rights were granted on 29 August 2017. The Performance Rights vest upon the meeting of certain criteria. 
Each performance right converts into one ordinary share of Calima Energy Limited on vesting. No amounts are paid or are payable by 
the  recipient  on  receipt  of  the  performance  right.  The  performance  rights  carry  neither  rights  of  dividends  nor  voting  rights.  The 
expense recognised  in the year relates to spreading the fair value (measured at grant date) of these Performance Rights over the 
expected vesting period. 

Other options 
On 6 November 2018, 2,750,000 options were granted to consultants for services rendered, with an exercise price of $0.07 per share. 
Of these, 2,000,000 expired unexercised on 31 December 2019. No amounts are paid or are payable by the recipient on receipt of the 
option. The options carry neither rights of dividends nor voting rights. 

Ordinary Shares issued in consideration for services rendered 
On 2 October 2020, 3,500,000 shares were issued at $0.00714 each to a Stocksdigital in lieu of marketing services valued at $25,000. 
The Group considered this it is not possible to fair value the services rendered, and therefore the expense recognised is equal to the 
fair value of the instruments granted. 
At the Annual General Meeting dated 29 May 2020 as per the AGM results lodged in ASX, shareholder approval was received for 
each of the Directors to receive Shares in lieu of 100% of Director’s fees and consultancy fees payable to them in the period 1 April 
2020 to 31 March 2021 as part of the Company's strategy to sustain its business in the current volatile commodity price 
environment. Consultants will also receive Shares in lieu of a portion of the consultancy fees payable to them on similar terms as the 
Directors.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT 

To the members of Calima Energy Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Calima Energy Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the 
Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 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 report, 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:

(i) 

Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its
financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

(ii) 

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 Corporations
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (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 confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been 
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the 
time of this auditor’s report.

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 2(c) in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions 
which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the 
group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its as
sets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect 
of this matter.

BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, 
an Australian company limited by guarantee. BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd and BDO Australia Ltd are members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited by guarantee, and 
form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
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 matters described Material uncertainty related 
to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters 
to be communicated in our report.

Recoverability of Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit

As disclosed in Note 8 of the financial report, the 
carrying value of capitalised exploration and 
evaluation expenditures represents a significant 
asset of the Group.

In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and 
Evaluation of Mineral Resources (“AASB 6”), the

recoverability of exploration and evaluation 
expenditure requires significant judgement by 
management in determining whether there are 
any facts or circumstances that exist to suggest 
the carrying amount of this asset may exceed its 
recoverable amount. As a result, this is 
considered a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included, but were not  

limited to, the following: 

•  Critically evaluating management’s 
impairment indicator assessment; 

•  Obtaining a schedule of areas of interest held 
by the group, and agreeing these to Title 
Information Reports from the Province of 
British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and 
Low Carbon Innovation database; 

•  Assessing the ability to finance any planned 
future exploration and evaluation activity; 

•  Considering whether any areas of interest had 

reached a stage where a reasonable 
assessment of economically recoverable 
reserves existed;  

•  Holding discussions with management to 

obtain an understanding of the nature of the 
impairment expense during the year; 

•  Considering whether there were any other 

salient facts or circumstances that existed to 
indicate that further impairment testing was 
required; and 

•  Assessing the adequacy of the related 

disclosures included in the financial report. 

 
 
 
 
 
Other information  

The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the 
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2020, but does not include 
the financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and 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

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 the 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.  

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the 
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:  

https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf
