Chairperson’s Address 

On  behalf of  the  Board of  Globe  Metals  &  Mining Limited  (“Globe”  or  “the  Group”),  it  is my  pleasure  to 
present to you the 2019 Annual Report. 

Consistent with the strategy outlined in my address in the 2018 Annual Report, the Group has maintained 
momentum  on  advancing the  Kanyika  Development  Agreement,  updating  the  technical  components  of a 
Feasibility Study, and assessing a range of project financing options. 

After 7 years of collaboration, it appears that the Kanyika Development Agreement with the Government of 
Malawi  is  nearing  finalisation.    The  Development  Agreement  has  been  circulated  amongst  government 
departments for final comment and as at the date of this annual report, the Company is of the understanding 
that all of the comments received back have been worked through, with no matters remaining unresolved. 
We look forward to execution of the Development Agreement in the short term. 

With execution of the Kanyika Development Agreement imminent the Company has recently finalised the 
technical components of the feasibility study, technical designs and development plans for the Project.  Once 
the Kanyika Development Agreement is executed, the Company will be in a position to move forward with 
project  funding  and  off-take  arrangements  and  the  Company’s  Board  and  management  is  optimistic  in 
realising project financing and development opportunities in the near term. 

On  a  positive  note  for  Kanyika,  global  steel  demand is  predicted  to  continue  to  grow  according  to  latest 
reports by the World Steel Association. As demand for higher quality steels rises as a proportion of all steel 
demand, the need for niobium is increasing at a faster rate than steel output.   

Analysts are  predicting that  demand  for niobium  will  grow  at  a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 
5.90% during the period 2019. Major factors driving the market are the increased consumption of niobium 
in structural steel due its characteristics of tensile strength and durability (for use in bridges, buildings and 
other large constructions such as hangars and stadiums) and extensive utilisation of niobium-based alloys in 
the  manufacture  of aircraft  engines  and  automobiles.  Lightweight  materials  and  designs  have  become 
increasingly  important  in  the  manufacture  of  automobiles,  where  driving  dynamics  are  a  major  factor. 
Additionally,  the  emerging  focus  of  governments  across  the  world  on  minimising  carbon  emissions  and 
enhancing  fuel  economy  has  increased  the  importance  of  lightweight  materials  in  the  production  of 
automobiles.  

These combinations of growth and demand bode well for the price of niobium.  As does the new emerging 
market of niobium in new technologies like wind turbines, medical imaging, particle accelerators, as well as an 
exciting  development  in  the  manufacture  of  batteries  for  electrical  vehicles.   Industry  leader  Toshiba  has 
recently  commenced  production  of  its  next  generation  SCiBTM   rechargeable  battery  for  electric  vehicles 
featuring a niobium anode, allowing higher performance, longer-life, quicker charging and improved safety 
and has been adopted by Mazda, Mitsubishi and Nissan. 

In the coming year the Group will continue to be cost prudent, whilst maintaining momentum on Kanyika 
development opportunities.  

In closing, I thank all shareholders, board of directors, and employees for their support of the Group in the 
year past and I am looking forward to their continued support in the year to come.  

Yours sincerely, 
GLOBE METALS & MINING LIMITED

Company Focus 

Consistent with the strategy outlined by the Chairperson in her Address in the 2018 Annual Report, the Group 
has  focussed  its  efforts  in  the  2019  financial  year  on  advancing  its  Kanyika  Niobium  Project  towards 
production by progressing with its mining licence application, that is only conditional on the finalisation of a 
Development Agreement and by seeking out and assessing a range of financing options. 

Review of Operations 

Globe is an Australian registered public company and has been listed on the ASX since December 2005 (ASX: 
GBE). The Company has an administration and operational centre in Lilongwe, Malawi in support of its on-
the-ground  Project  exploration  activities  that  currently  employs  4  staff.    The  Malawi  operations  are 
supported from Globe’s corporate head office in Perth, Australia.    

Globe’s  Kanyika  Niobium Project,  which  is  located  in  central Malawi,  has  contains  niobium and  tantalum 
mineralisation commodities that are key additives in steel manufacture and electronics.   

Kanyika Niobium Project (“KNP”) 

Overview 

Globe identified niobium and tantalum mineralisation in 2007 at Kanyika.  Subsequent drilling confirmed the 
mineralisation leading to an extensive exploration and metallurgical testwork program.  A scoping study in 
2008 and further drilling led to a feasibility study in 2012 and the release of a JORC (2004) Mineral Resource 
Estimate in January 2013 (refer below). 

During 2013, Globe commissioned metallurgical optimisation work, and subsequently in 2014 commissioned 
a pilot plant to demonstrate and further optimise metallurgical processes.  

Feasibility Study 

In February 2018, Globe commenced work aimed at updating and finalising the technical components of the 
engineering program in order to support project funding initiatives and in light of the changing outlook for 
the mining and resources industry, and in particular for niobium.  

To  facilitate  this,  the  Company  advised  it  had  engaged  specialists  to  revise  and  update  the  previous 
engineering study to incorporate the findings and outcomes of the pilot plant work undertaken and other 
necessary engineering design changes. 

In January 2019, Globe advised that it had finalised the revision of all studies and plans, such that the technical 
programs associated with the mineral resource, mining, metallurgical studies, processing, engineering design 
and infrastructural support are all done to a technical detail that is satisfactory to engineering classification 
standards.

In addition, Globe advised that it had obtained updated capital and operating cost estimates through a tender 
process that was undertaken independent of Globe, and had updated its financial model for revised capital 
costs, revenues and operating costs in order to determine key metrics including but not limited to project 
revenue, profitability and payback.   

Globe noted that it was not in a position to finalise the financial model and release the key outcomes due to 
the current status of the mining law in Malawi and the status of negotiations between the Company and the 
Government on the Development Agreement.  That position remains unchanged. 

Product Marketing and Off-Take 

Globe continues to explore avenues for KNP product off-take to complete the KNP definitive feasibility study. 
In an effort to satisfy purchasers seeking high-purity niobium products – samples have been prepared and 
distributed. 

Intellectual Property 

Intellectual property (IP) developed as part of the KNP feasibility study and subsequent optimisation work 
has  been  consolidated  into  provisional  patent  applications  that  were  initially  filed  with  IP  Australia  and 
subsequently filed with African Regional Intellectual Property Organisation (ARIPO).  

Development Agreement  

The Kanyika Exclusive Prospecting Licence (EPL0188) was due for expiry at the end of December 2014.  In 
early December 2014, Globe applied for a Mining Licence.  Globe received notification in June 2015 from the 
Malawi Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy & Mining (MMNREM) that its application for a Mining Lease, 
currently registered as AML0026, has been approved subject to completion of a Development Agreement.  
The Development Agreement negotiations are continuing in good faith with the Government of Malawi. 

Project Development and Financing 

During  the  year,  the  executive  team  examined  opportunities  for  project  enhancement,  including 
reconfiguration of project arrangements, and had advanced discussion with various regulators, stakeholders 
and other parties regarding project development and financing.  

Statement of Mineral Resources 

On 11 July 2018, Globe published an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Kanyika Niobium Project 
(KNP) calculated in accordance with 2012 JORC guidelines.  

The resource calculated was unchanged from the previous Mineral Resource Estimate published on 7 January 
2011, calculated in accordance with the 2004 JORC guidelines, and is as follows:

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2019 

REMUNERATION REPORT - AUDITED 

This remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2019 outlines the remuneration arrangements of the Group in accordance with 
the requirements of Corporations Act 2001 (the Act) and its regulations.  This information has been audited as required by Section 
308(3C) of the Act. 

The remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for Key Management Personnel (KMP) who are defined as those 
persons  having  authority  and  responsibility  for  planning,  directing  and  controlling  the  major  activities  of  the  Group,  directly  or 
indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the parent. 

For the purposes of this report, the term “executive” includes the Managing Director (MD), executive directors (where applicable) 
and senior executives of the Group. 

A. 

Remuneration Governance 

The Board of Directors has established a Committee for the purpose of reviewing and making recommendations with respect to the 
remuneration practices of the Company.   

The Committee comprises Mr Alex Ko (Chairperson), Mr Bill Hayden and Ms Alice Wong; all of whom are non-executive directors. 

The Board of Directors has prepared and approved a charter as the basis on which the Committee will be constituted and operated.  
The role of the Committee is to provide a mechanism for the determination, implementation and assessment of the remuneration 
practices of the Company, including remuneration packages and incentive schemes for executive Directors and senior management, 
and fees payable to Non-Executive Directors. 

The Committee is primarily responsible for making recommendations to the Board on: 
➢ 

the overarching executive remuneration framework; 

➢ 

➢ 

➢ 

the  operation  of  incentive  plans  (if  any)  which  apply  to  the  executive  team,  including  key  performance  indicators  and 
performance hurdles; 

the remuneration levels of executive directors and other KMP; and 

the fees payable to non-executive directors. 

The Committee’s objective is to ensure that remuneration policies and structures are fair and competitive, and aligned with the long-
term interests of the Group. 

The Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the role of the Remuneration Committee. 

B. 

Remuneration Policy 

The  remuneration  policy  of  Globe  and  its  Controlled  Entities  has  been  designed  to  align  Director  and  executive  objectives  with 
shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an annual basis in line with 
market rates and offering specific incentives, from time to time, that are based on share price and key performance areas affecting 
the Group’s financial results.  

The  Board  of  Directors  of  Globe  believes  the  remuneration  policy  is  appropriate  and  effective  in  its  ability  to  attract,  retain  and 
motivate suitably qualified and experienced Directors and executives to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence 
between the Directors, executives and the Company’s shareholders.  

C. 

Remuneration Arrangements 

All  executives  receive  a  base  salary  (which  is  based  on  factors  such  as  length  of  service  and  experience)  and  superannuation  (in 
accordance  with  relevant  legislation).  Executive  remuneration  may  also  incorporate  a  component  of  performance-based 
remuneration.  

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

Non-executive directors are remunerated at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The 
Board determines payments to non-executive 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 fees that can be paid 
to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (currently $600,000).  

The Board of Directors may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options.  

All remuneration paid to Directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Options are independently 
valued by corporate advisers using the Black-Scholes method and Monte Carlo Model.  Shares are valued at Market Value.

D. 

Performance Based Remuneration 

The Company believes that linking the remuneration of  Directors and executives with performance will be effective in increasing 
shareholder wealth. 

From time to time,  the Board of Directors may  establish performance targets and  a  bonus system for the purposes of providing 
directors  and  executives  with  short-term  and  long-term  performance  incentives.    Such  incentives  are  offered  to  increase  goal 
congruence between shareholders and directors and executives.  

There are currently no incentive programs in place, apart from options which have previously been granted to the Managing Director 
and CEO. The options were not based on a percentage of salary.  The Board of Directors issued the options to the Managing Director 
and CEO as an incentive.

Voting and comments made at the Company’s 2018 Annual General Meeting (AGM) 

At the Company’s 2018 AGM, a resolution to adopt the prior year remuneration report was put to a shareholder vote pursuant to 
the requirements of Section 250R92) of the Corporations Act 2001.  KMP and their Closely Related Party(s), were  excluded from 
voting on the resolution.  85.14% of votes were cast against adoption of the resolution reflecting a first strike. Since that time, the 
Remuneration  Committee  has  continued  to  review  the  approach  taken  to  the  Company's  overall  remuneration,  and  its 
appropriateness to the Company’s circumstances. 

If 25% or more votes are cast against adoption of the remuneration report at the 2019 AGM, that will represent a second successive 
strike,  and  the  Company  will  be  required  to  put  to  Shareholders  at  the  2019  AGM  a  resolution  proposing  the  calling  of  an 
extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of director of the Company (Spill Resolution).  

If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene an extraordinary general meeting 
(Spill Meeting) within 90 days of the Company’s 2019 AGM. All Directors, other than the Company’s managing director will cease to 
hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting. Following the Spill 
Meeting, those persons whose election or re-election as Directors is approved will be the directors of the Company.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2019 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The financial report of Globe Metals & Mining Limited for the year ended 30 June 2019 was authorised for issue in accordance with 
a resolution of directors on 26 September 2019. 

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of the financial report.  The 
accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. This financial report includes the consolidated financial 
statements and notes of Globe Metals & Mining Limited (‘Globe’ or ‘the Company’) and its controlled entities (‘Consolidated Entity’ 
or ‘Group’). Globe is a for-profit entity. 

a. 

Basis of Preparation  

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has 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, as appropriate for profit-oriented entities. 

(i)  Compliance with IFRS  

The  financial  report  of  Globe  complies  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  (‘AAS’).  Compliance  with  AAS  ensures  that  the 
financial  report,  comprising  the  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto,  also  complies  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). 

(ii)  New and amended standards adopted by the group 

None of the new standards and amendments to standards that are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 
1 July 2018 affected any of the amounts recognised in the current period or any prior period. 

(iii) Historical Cost Convention 

The  financial  report  has  been  prepared  under  the  historical  cost  convention,  with  the  exception  of  investments  at  fair  value 
through other comprehensive income which is measured at fair value. 

(iv) Critical accounting estimates 

The preparation of 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 in 
note 3. 

b. 

Principles of Consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Globe and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2019. Control is 
achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to 
affect those returns through its power over the investee.  

Specifically, the Group controls an investee if, and only if, the Group has:  
► Power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee)  
► Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee  
► The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns  

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. To support this presumption and when the Group 
has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in 
assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:  
► The contractual arrangement(s) with the other vote holders of the investee  
► Rights arising from other contractual arrangements  
► The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights  

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or 
more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and 
ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed 
of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the 
Group ceases to control the subsidiary.  

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.  

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest 
and other components of equity, while any resultant gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment retained is recognised 
at fair value.  

c. 

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.

d. 

Foreign Currency Translation 

Functional and presentation currency 
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which 
that  entity  operates,  currently  being  the  Australian  Dollar  for  each  of  the  entities.  The  consolidated  financial  statements  are 
presented in Australian dollars which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. 

Transactions and balances 
Foreign  currency  transactions  are  translated  into  functional  currency  using  the  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of  the 
transaction.  Foreign  currency  monetary  items  are  translated  at  the  year-end  exchange  rate.  Non-monetary  items  measured  at 
historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value 
are reported at the exchange rate at the date when the fair values were determined. Exchange differences arising on the translation 
of monetary items are recognised in profit and loss for the period, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net 
investment hedge. 

e. 

Revenue Recognition 

Revenue is recognised in accordance with AASB 15, which establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts 
with customers and requires that revenue be recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to 
be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer.  

Interest income is recognised as the interest accrues at an effective interest rate. 

f. 

Reserves 

The reserve represents the gains and losses of investments at fair value through other comprehensive income. 

g. 

Income Tax 

Current Tax 
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax 
loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. 
Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).  

Deferred Tax 
Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method in respect of temporary  differences arising from differences between the 
carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items. 

In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the 
extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused 
tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences 
giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which 
affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected 
to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that 
have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the 
tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Consolidated Entity expects, at the reporting date, to recover or 
settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. 

Current and Deferred Taxation 
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, 
except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in 
equity,  or  where  it  arises  from  the  initial  accounting  for  a  business  combination,  in  which  case  it  is  taken  into  account  in  the 
determination of goodwill or excess. The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on 
the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that Globe will derive sufficient 
future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law. 

h. 

Leases 

Leases  of  fixed  assets  where  substantially  all  the  risks  and  benefits  incidental  to  the  ownership  of  the  asset,  but  not  the  legal 
ownership, are transferred to entities in the Group are classified as finance leases.  

Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset and a liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including 
any guaranteed residual values.   

Leased assets are depreciated on a diminishing value basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the 
Group will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of the lease.  

Lease  payments  are  allocated  between  the  reduction  of  the  lease  liability  and  the  lease  interest  expense  for  the  period.  Lease 
payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the 
periods in which they are incurred.

i. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

Cash and short-term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with 
an original maturity of three months or less. 

For the purposes of the Statement Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net 
of outstanding bank overdrafts.  

j. 

Exploration and Evaluation Assets 

Exploration and evaluation costs, including the costs of acquiring licences, are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on an 
area of interest basis.  Costs incurred before the Consolidated Entity has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are recognised 
in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 

Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights of interest are current and either: 
- 
- 

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

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in 
relation to that area of interest. 

Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources 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  from 
exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  to  mining  property  and  development  assets  within  property,  plant  and  equipment  and 
depreciated over the life of the mine. 

Impairment 
Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment when any of the following facts and circumstances exists: 
- 

the term of the exploration licence in the specific area of interest has expired during the reporting period or will expire in the 
near future, and is not expected to be renewed; 
substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area are not budgeted nor 
planned; 

- 

-  exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area of interest have not led to the discovery of commercially 
viable quantities of mineral resources and the decision was made to discontinue such activities in the specific area of interest; or 
sufficient data exists to indicate that, although a development in the specific area of  interest is likely to proceed, the carrying 
amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale. 

- 

Where a potential impairment is indicated, an assessment is performed for each cash generating unit (“CGU”) which is no larger than 
the area of interest. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of the CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.

Policy prior to 1 July 2018 (Before adoption of AASB 9) 

Financial Assets 

Classification 
The  group  classifies  its  financial  assets  in  the  following  categories:  financial  assets  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss,  loans  and 
receivables, held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which 
the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and, in the case 
of assets classified as held-to-maturity, re-evaluates this designation at the end of each reporting date. 

(i)   Loans and receivables 
Loans  and  receivables  are  non-derivative  financial  assets  with  fixed  or  determinable  payments  that  are  not  quoted  in  an  active 
market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting period which 
are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in trade and other receivables (note 9) in the statement of 
financial position. Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently 
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts.  

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when 
identified. An allowance for impairment is raised when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the debt. 

(ii)  Available-for-sale financial assets 
Available-for-sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non-derivatives that are either designated 
in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures 
or  management  intends  to  dispose  of  the  investment  within  12  months  of  the  end  of  the  reporting  period.  Investments  are 
designated as available-for-sale if they do not have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments and management intends 
to hold them for the medium to long term.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2019 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

Financial assets – reclassification 
The Group may choose to reclassify a non-derivative trading financial asset out of the held for trading category if the financial asset 
is no longer held for the purpose of selling it in the near term. Financial assets other than loans and receivables are permitted to be 
reclassified out of the held for trading category only in rare  circumstances arising from a single  event  that  is  unusual and highly 
unlikely to recur in the near term. In addition, the Group may choose to reclassify financial assets that would meet the definition of 
loans and receivables out of the held for trading or available-for-sale categories if the Group has the intention and ability to hold 
these financial assets for the foreseeable future or until maturity at the date of reclassification. 

Reclassifications are made at fair value as of the reclassification date. Fair value becomes the new cost or amortised cost as applicable, 
and no reversals of fair value gains or losses recorded before reclassification date are subsequently made. Effective interest rates for 
financial  assets  reclassified  to  loans  and  receivables  and  held-to-maturity  categories  are  determined  at  the  reclassification  date. 
Further increases in estimates of cash flows adjust effective interest rates prospectively. 

Recognition and de-recognition 
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the Group commits to purchase 
or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or 
have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When securities classified 
as available-for-sale are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to 
profit or loss as gains and losses from investment securities.  

Measurement 
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through 
profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial 
assets  carried  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  are  expensed  in  profit  or  loss.  Loans  and  receivables  and  held-to-maturity 
investments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains 
or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are presented in 
profit or loss within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair 
value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss as part of revenue from continuing operations when the Group’s right to 
receive payments is established. Interest income from these financial assets is included in the net gains/(losses). 

Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in a foreign currency and classified as available-for-sale are analysed 
between translation differences resulting from changes in amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount 
of the security. The translation differences related to changes in the amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes 
in carrying amount are recognised in other comprehensive income. Changes in the fair value of other monetary and non-monetary 
securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in other comprehensive income.  

Details on how the fair value of financial instruments is determined are disclosed in note 2. 

Impairment 
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial 
assets is impaired.  A financial asset or a  group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are  incurred only if  there is 
objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition  of the asset (a ‘loss 
event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial 
assets that can be reliably  estimated. In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged 
decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered an indicator that the assets are impaired.  

For loans and receivables, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present 
value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s 
original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss. 
If there is objective evidence of impairment for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss measured as the difference 
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss  on that financial asset previously recognised in 
profit or loss is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss. 

Financial Liabilities 

(iii)  Trade and Other Payables 
The Group’s financial liabilities only include trade and other payables. They are initially recognised at fair value net of directly attribute 
transaction costs, and are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

Interest, when charged by the lender, is recognised as an expense on an accrual basis.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2019 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

Policy applied from 1 July 2018 (Before adoption of AASB 9) 

Financial Assets 

Initial recognition and measurement 
Financial  assets  are  classified,  at  initial  recognition,  as  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost,  fair  value  through  other 
comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends 
on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them. With the exception 
of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient, 
the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or 
loss, transaction costs. In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured as amortised cost, it needs to give rise to cash flows 
that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the 
SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for 
which the Group has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under AASB 15. 

The Group’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. 
The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or 
both. 

Subsequent measurement 
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:  
- 
- 
- 

Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments) 
Financial assets at fair value through OCI with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments) 
Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity 
instruments) 
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 

- 

Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments) 
This is the category of financial asset that is applicable to the Group. The Group measures financial assets at amortised cost if both 
of the following conditions are met: 
- 

The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash 
flows and; 
The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and 
interest on the principal amount outstanding 

- 

Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. 
Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.  

The Group’s financial assets at amortised cost includes cash, short-term deposits and trade and other receivables. 

Financial assets designed at fair value through OCI (equity instruments).  
This  is  the  category  of  financial  asset  that  is  applicable  to  the  Group.  Upon  initial  recognition,  the  Group  can  elect  to  classify 
irrevocably its equity investments as equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI when they meet the definition of  
equity  under  AASB  132  Financial  Instruments:  Presentation  and  are  not  held  for  trading.  The  classification  is  determined  on  an 
instrument-by-instrument basis.  

Gains  and  losses  on  these  financial  assets  are  never  recycled  to  profit  or  loss.  Dividends  are  recognised  as  other  income  in  the 
statement of profit or loss when the right of payment has been established, except when the Group benefits from such proceeds as 
a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI. Equity instruments designated at 
fair value through OCI are not subject to impairment assessment.  The Group’s financial assets designed at fair value through OCI 
includes its equity investments under this category. 

the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or 

Derecognition 
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised 
(i.e., removed from the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position) when: 
- 
- 

the Group has transferred has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the 
received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Group 
has  transferred  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  the  asset,  or  (b)  the  Group  has  neither  transferred  nor  retained 
substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset. 

When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it 
evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained 
substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the  Group continues to recognise the 
transferred  asset  to  the  extent  of  its  continuing  involvement.  In  that  case,  the  Group  also  recognises  an  associated  liability.  The 
transferred asset and  the associated liability are measured on a  basis  that  reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has 
retained. Continuing  involvement that takes  the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the  lower of the 
original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2019 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

Impairment of financial assets 
The Group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or 
loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows 
that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will 
include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms. 

ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial 
recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-
month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss 
allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a 
lifetime ECL). 

For trade receivables and contract assets, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Group does not 
track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Group has 
established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to 
the debtors and the economic environment.  

Financial Liabilities  
Initial recognition and measurement 
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. 
The Group’s financial liabilities only include trade and other payables. 

Subsequent measurement 
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. 
Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process. 
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part 
of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss. This category applies to trade and other 
payables. 

l. 

Plant and Equipment 

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.  

The depreciable amount of all Motor vehicle and Leasehold assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives.  
Plant  and  equipment,  Furniture  and  fittings  and  Software  assets  are  depreciated  using  the  diminishing  value  method.  The 
depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets vary from 3% to 40% with the average rate being 30%. 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of 
comprehensive income.  

The carrying amounts of plant and equipment are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of 
impairment.  If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.  The recoverable amount of an asset or 
cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal.   

m. 

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) where, as a result of a past event, it is 
probable that an outlay of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate 
can be made of the amount of the obligation. 

Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement 
is  recognised  as  a  separate  asset  but  only  when  the  reimbursement  is  virtually  certain.  The  expense  relating  to  any  provision  is 
presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement. 

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-
tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.  

Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.  

n. 

Employee Benefits 

Short-term obligations  
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled 
within  12  months  after  the  end  of  the  period  in  which  the  employees  render  the  related  service  are  recognised  in  respect  of 
employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities 
are settled. The liability for annual leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits. All other short-term employee benefit 
obligations are presented as payables.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

Other long-term employee benefit obligations  
The liability for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period 
in which the employees render the related service 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 end of the reporting period 
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 end of the reporting period 
on high quality corporate bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the  
estimated future cash outflows. The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the statement of financial position if the entity 
does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, regardless of when the 
actual settlement is expected to occur. 

Equity Settled Compensation 
The  Group  provides  benefits  to  employees  (including  directors)  of  the  Group  in  the  form  of  share-based  payment  transactions, 
whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (“equity-settled transaction”). 

The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are 
granted. The fair value is determined by a valuation by using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. 

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

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 number of awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, will ultimately 
vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at reporting date. 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. 

Where 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 increase in the value of  the transaction as a result of the modification, as 
measured at the date of modification.  

Where 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. 

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.  

Where any group company purchases the company’s equity instruments, for example as the result of a share buy-back or a share-
based payment plan, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted 
from equity attributable to the owners as treasury shares until the shares are cancelled or reissued. 

Where  such  ordinary  shares  are  subsequently  reissued,  any  consideration  received,  net  of  any  directly  attributable  incremental 
transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the owners. 

p. 

Earnings Per Share 

Basic earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing: 
- 
-  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares  outstanding  during  the  financial  year,  adjusted  for  bonus  elements  in 

the profit attributable to owners of the company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares 

ordinary shares issued during the year and excluding treasury shares 

Diluted earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account: 
- 
after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and 
-  weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive 

potential ordinary shares. 

q. 

Goods and Services Tax and other Value Added Taxes 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of  Goods and Services Tax (GST) and other Value Added Taxes 
(VAT),  except  where  the  amount  of  GST  or  VAT  incurred  is  not  recoverable  from  the  applicable  taxation  authority.    In  these 
circumstances, the GST and VAT are recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.  
Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST and VAT.

1.STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

The net amount of GST or VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as a current asset or liability in the 
statement of financial position. 
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis.  The GST and VAT components of cash flows arising from 
investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authorities are classified as operating cash 
flows. 

r. 

Rounding of amounts 

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in financial/Directors’ report) Instrument 2016/191. Therefore, 
amounts in the directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, to the nearest dollar. 

s. 

Parent entity financial information 

The financial information for the parent entity, Globe Metals and Mining Limited, disclosed in note 28 has been prepared on the 
same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below. 

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities 

(i) 
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities are accounted for at cost in the financial statements of Globe Metals 
and Mining Limited. 

t. 

Changes in accounting policies and disclosure    

New and amended standards and interpretations 

The Group applied AASB 15 and AASB 9 for the first time. The nature and effect of the changes as a result of adoption of these new 
accounting standards are described below. Several other amendments and interpretations apply for the first time  for the  period 
ended 30 June 2019, but do not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. The Group has not early 
adopted any standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective. 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments Classification and Measurement 
Under AASB 9, debt instruments are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss, amortised cost, or fair value through 
OCI. The classification is based on two criteria: the Group’s business model for managing the assets; and whether the instruments’ 
contractual cash flows represent ‘solely payments of principal and interest’ on the principal amount outstanding.  

The  assessment  of  the  Group’s  business  model  was  made  as  of  the  date  of  initial  application,  1  July  2018,  and  then  applied 
retrospectively to those financial assets that were not derecognised before 1 July 2018. The assessment of whether contractual cash 
flows on debt instruments are solely comprised of principal and interest was made based on the facts and circumstances as at the 
initial recognition of the assets. The classification and measurement requirements of AASB 9 did not have a significant impact on the 
Group. The Group continued measuring at fair value all financial assets previously held at fair value under AASB 139. The following 
are the changes in the classification of the Group’s financial assets:

The change in classification has not resulted in any re-measurement adjustments at 1 July 2018.  
Impairment 
The adoption of AASB 9 did not fundamentally change the Group’s accounting for impairment losses for financial assets by replacing 
AASB  139’s  incurred  loss  approach  with  a  forward-looking  expected  credit  loss  (ECL)  approach.    AASB  9  requires  the  Group  to 
recognise an allowance for ECLs for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss and contract assets.  

As at 1 July 2018, the Group has reviewed and assessed the Group’s existing financial assets for impairment using reasonable  and 
supportable information. The result of the assessment is as follows: 

Items existing at 1 July 2018 that 
are  subject  to  the  impairment 
provisions of AASB 9 

Cash and cash equivalents 

Trade and other receivables 

Credit risk attributes 

Cumulative  additional  loss  allowance  recognised  on  1  July 
2018 
$’000 

All balances are assessed to have low credit risk as they are ether 
on  demand  or  have  short  term  maturities  and  held  with 
reputable institutions with high credit ratings 

The Group applied the simplified approach and concluded that 
no additional loss allowance was required at 1 July 2019.

1.STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
AASB 15 supersedes AASB 111 Construction Contracts, AASB 118 Revenue and related Interpretations and it applies, with limited 
exceptions, to all revenue arising from contracts with its customers. AASB 15 establishes a five-step model to account for revenue 
arising from contracts with customers and requires that revenue be recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which 
an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. AASB 15 requires entities to exercise 
judgement, taking into consideration all of the relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts 
with  their  customers.  The  standard  also  specifies  the  accounting  for  the  incremental  costs  of  obtaining  a  contract  and  the  costs 
directly related to fulfilling a contract. In addition, the standard requires extensive disclosures. The Group adopted AASB 15 using the 
modified retrospective approach with the date of initial application being 1 July 2018. There was no impact to the Group in adopting 
AASB 15. 

Based on the nature and status of the investments in projects, the Group does not have any direct contracts with  customers and 
accordingly has no revenue impacted by the Standard. In undertaking that assessment, it was noted that the Standard had no impact 
on the recognition or measurement of revenue earned in the current or comparative periods.  

Standards issued but not yet effective 
AASB 16 Leases 
AASB 16 was issued in January 2016 and it replaces AASB 117 Leases, Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains 
a Lease, Interpretation 115 Operating Leases-Incentives and Interpretation 127 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving 
the Legal Form of a Lease. AASB 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases 
and requires lessees to account for all leases under a single on-balance sheet model similar to the accounting for finance leases under 
AASB 117. The standard includes two recognition exemptions for lessees – leases of ’low-value’ assets (e.g., personal computers) and 
short-term leases (i.e., leases with a lease term of 12 months or less). At the commencement date of a lease, a lessee will recognise 
a liability to make lease payments (i.e., the lease liability) and an asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the 
lease term (i.e., the right-of-use asset). Lessees will be required to separately recognise the interest expense on the lease liability and 
the depreciation expense on the right-of-use asset. 

Lessees will be also required to remeasure the lease liability upon the occurrence of certain events (e.g., a change in the lease term, 
a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine those payments). The lessee will 
generally recognise the amount of the remeasurement of the lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset. 

Lessor accounting under AASB 16 is substantially unchanged from today’s accounting under AASB 117. Lessors will continue to classify 
all leases using the same classification principle as in AASB 117 and distinguish between two types of leases: operating and finance 
leases. AASB 16, which is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, requires lessees and lessors to make more 
extensive disclosures than under AASB 117. 
The Group is continuing its work on the final expected impact and plans to adopt AASB 16 using the modified retrospective approach, 
which means it will apply the standard from 1 July 2019, the cumulative impact of adoption will be recognised at 1 July 2019 and 
comparatives will not be restated.  

AASB Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment 
The Interpretation addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application 
of AASB 112 and does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of AASB 112, nor does it specifically include requirements relating 
to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The Interpretation specifically addresses the following: 

-  Whether an entity considers uncertain tax treatment separately 
- 
- 
- 

The assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities 
How an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rate 
How an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances 

An entity has to determine whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain 
tax treatments. The approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty should be followed. The interpretation is effective 
for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, but certain transition reliefs are available. The Group is in  the 
process of assessing the impact of the new interpretation and will apply the interpretation from its effective date.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT  

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise of cash. The Group also has other financial instruments such as trade and other 
debtors and creditors, which arise directly from its operations, and investments at fair value through other comprehensive income. 
Capital Risk Management 
The consolidated entity’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can 
provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost 
of capital. 

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the consolidated entity may adjust the amount of dividends, return capital to 
shareholders, issue/buy-back shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as value adding 
relative  to  the  current  parent  entity’s  share  price  at  the  time  of  investment.  The  consolidated  entity  is  not  currently  pursuing 
additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its existing businesses in order to maximise synergies. 

The  main  risks  arising  from  the  Group’s  financial  instruments  and  the  Group’s  policies  for  managing  these  risks  are  summarised 
below: 

Interest Rate Risk 
The Group does not have short or long-term cash deposits or debt, and therefore this risk is minimal.  An analysis by maturities is 
provided in (i) below. 
Credit Risk 

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group.  The 
Group has adopted the policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security 
where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. 

The credit risk on financial assets of the Group is reflected in those assets' carrying amount net of any provisions for impairment. 

The Group currently holds majority of its cash and cash equivalents with National Australia Bank with a credit rating of Aa3. The 
Group believes the credit risk exposure is negligible given the strong credit rating of the counterparty. 

Foreign currency risk 
The Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies arising from the sale and purchase of goods and services in currencies 
other  than  the  Group’s  functional  currency.    The  majority  of  expenses  incurred  are  in  AUD  and  therefore  risk  is  not  significant. 
Monetary assets and liabilities of the Group denominated in foreign currencies are not material to the Group. 

Concentration risk 
The parent entity is exposed to concentration risk due to 94% of its cash and cash equivalents being held within the one financial 
institution – National Australia Bank.  The Group manages this risk through monitoring of the credit rating of the institution. 

Liquidity risk 
The  Group  manages  liquidity  risk  by  monitoring  forecast  cash  flows  and  ensuring  that  adequate  short-term  cash  facilities  are 
maintained.  At the end of the year the group held deposits at call of $7,387,000 (2018: $9,339,000) which are expected to readily 
generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk. 

Interest rate risk exposures

Sensitivity analysis 

The Group has performed a sensitivity analysis in relation to interest income and movements in interest rates on financial assets 
and liabilities. The analysis highlights the effect on the current year’s pre-tax loss which would have resulted from movement in 
interest rates with all other variables remaining constant. 

Change in loss 
- increase in interest rate by 0.5% 
- decrease in interest rate by 0.5%

Fair value hierarchy 
All financial instruments for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, based on the 
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole, as follows: 

➢ 
➢ 

➢ 

Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities 
Level 2 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly 
or indirectly observable 
Level  3  –  Valuation  techniques  for  which  the  lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to  the  fair  value  measurements  is 
unobservable 

For all asset and liabilities that are recognised at fair value on recurring basis, the group determines whether transfers have occurred 
between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value 
measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. 

The valuation of investments at fair value through other comprehensive income are based on the equity share price in the listed 
stock exchange (Level one fair value hierarchy).

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS  

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements and estimates relating to the carrying amounts 
of certain assets and liabilities.  Actual results may differ from the estimates made.  Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an 
ongoing basis. 

The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain 
assets and liabilities within the next accounting period are: 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

(i) 
The  Group’s  accounting  policy  for  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  results  in  expenditure  being  capitalised  for  an  area  of 
interest where it is considered likely to be recoverable by future exploitation or sale or where the activities have not reached a stage 
which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. This policy requires management to make certain estimates as 
to future events and circumstances, in particular whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Any such 
estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalised the expenditure under the 
policy, a judgement is made that recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalised amount will be written off to profit 
and  loss.  Refer  to  note  12  for  details  of  the  judgement  applied  in  the  current  period  in  relation  to  exploration  and  evaluation 
expenditure. 

Income taxes  

(ii) 
Judgement is required in assessing whether deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised on the statement of financial position.  
Deferred tax assets, including those arising from temporary differences, are recognised only when it is considered more likely than 
not that they will be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of future assessable income of a nature and of an amount 
sufficient to enable the benefits to be utilised. Refer to note 7 for details of the judgement applied in the current period in relation 
to income taxes. 

Tax provisions 

(iii) 
Judgement is required in calculating tax provisions relating to potential tax obligations in foreign jurisdictions where the legislation 
and case law is not established.  Tax provisions are recognised when it is considered more likely than not that an amount will be 
payable.  Refer to note 14 for details of the judgement applied in the current period in relation to tax provisions.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION  

The consolidated entity has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board 
of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. 

The consolidated entity has two reportable segments which are based on the stage of development of its projects, which are broadly 
in either of two groups: those in the exploration phase or those in the evaluation stage.  Unallocated results, assets and liabilities 
represent corporate amounts that are not core to the reportable segments. 

Prior period information may be restated to reflect the current composition of reportable segments. 

Activity by segment 

Africa-Kanyika 
The Africa-Kanyika segment includes the Kanyika Niobium Project in Malawi, which is host to a 2012 JORC compliant Mineral Resource 
Estimate of 68.3Mt @ 2,830ppm Nb2O5 (niobium pentoxide) and 135ppm Ta5O5 (tantalum pentoxide) at a 1,500 ppm Nb2O5 cut-off.  

Globe  received  notification  in  June  2015  from  the  Malawi  Ministry  of  Natural  Resources,  Energy  &  Mining  (MMNREM)  that  its 
application  for  a  Mining  Lease  for  Kanyika  Niobium  Project,  currently  registered  as  AML0026,  has  been  approved  subject  to 
completion of a Development Agreement.   

The Kanyika Niobium Project is currently at the evaluation stage. 

Africa-Exploration 
The Africa-Exploration segment includes the Kanyika Exploration Project, lying adjacent to the Kanyika Niobium Project.  The project 
is covered by Exploration Licence EPL0421/15 and is at the exploration stage:

Kanyika Niobium Project 
The Directors have considered the requirements of AASB 6: Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources, and have reviewed 
the carrying value of exploration and evaluation expenditures that relate to the Kanyika Niobium Project.  Based on the review, the 
directors consider the carrying value of the Kanyika Niobium Project is supported by the anticipated future value.  Furthermore, there 
are no indications that the carrying value of the Kanyika Niobium Project was impaired at 30 June 2019.   

Other 
The value of the Group’s interest in exploration expenditure is dependent upon: 

- 
- 
- 

- 

the continuance of the consolidated entity’s rights to tenure of the areas of interest; 
the results of future exploration; and 
the recoupment of costs through successful development and exploitation of the areas of interest, or alternatively, by their 
sale. 
no significant changes in laws and regulations that greatly impact the company’s ability to maintain tenure. 

The Group’s exploration properties may be subjected to claim(s) under native title, or contain sacred sites, or sites of significance to 
indigenous people.  As a result, exploration  properties or areas  within the tenements may be subject to exploration restrictions, 
mining restrictions and/or claims for compensation.  At this time, there has not been any material claims made to the Group.

The  Provision  for  Foreign  Tax  is  based  upon  assessments  received  for  non-residents  tax  and  fringe  benefit  tax  from  the  Malawi 
Revenue Authority.  The provision has been estimated by the Company by considering advice from their tax experts and by estimating 
the expected outcome of the assessments based on the potential success of the claims. The Company is currently defending all of 
these claims.

(a)  Management of Share Capital  

The Directors primary objectivity is to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the Group.  At 
reporting date, the Group has no external borrowings. 

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. 
Unmarketable Parcel Share Buy-Back 
An unmarketable parcel share buy-back program for holders of parcels of Globe shares with a market value of less than $500 was 
completed on 27 March 2018.  Under the program, the Company bought-back the shareholdings of holders of unmarketable parcels 
who did not elect to retain their shares, resulting in the Company buying back 3,806,689 shares at a total cost of $72k , representing 
a Buy-Back price of 1.9 cents per share. 
Capital Risk Management 
The consolidated entity’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can 
provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost 
of capital. 

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the consolidated entity may adjust the amount of dividends, return  capital to 
shareholders, issue/buy-back shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as value adding 
relative  to  the  current  parent  entity’s  share  price  at  the  time  of  investment.  The  consolidated  entity  is  not  currently  pursuing 
additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its existing businesses in order to maximise synergies.

Independent auditor's report to the members of Globe Metals & Mining 
Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Globe Metals & Mining Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries 
(collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 
2019, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated 
statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes 
to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' 
declaration. 

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

a) 

giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2019 
and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and 

b) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for opinion 

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

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

Key audit matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our 
audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit 
of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide a separate 
opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter 
is provided in that context. 

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited 
Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation 

TD:KG:GLOBE:007 

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 
Financial Report section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit 
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material 
misstatement of the financial report. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures 
performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying 
financial report. 

1.  Carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation  

Why significant  

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets is 
significant and subjective as it is based on the Group’s 
ability and intention, to continue to explore the asset. The 
carrying value is also impacted by the results of exploration 
work. This creates a risk that the amounts stated in the 
consolidated financial statements may not be recoverable. 

Refer to Note 12 Exploration and evaluation assets to the 
consolidated financial statements for the amounts held on 
the consolidated statement of financial position by the 
Group as at 30 June 2019 and related disclosure. 

We evaluated the Group’s assessment of the carrying value 
of exploration and evaluation assets. Our audit procedures 
included the following: 

•  Considered the Group’s right to explore in the relevant 

exploration area which included obtaining and assessing 
supporting documentation such as license agreements 

•  Considered the Group’s intention to carry out 

exploration and evaluation activity in the relevant 
exploration area which included assessment of the 
Group’s cash-flow forecast models, as well as enquiries 
with senior management and Directors as to the 
intentions and strategy of the Group 

•  Examined the Group’s analysis of the commercial 

viability of results relating to exploration and evaluation 
activities carried out in the relevant licensed area to 
determine if anything has come to our attention that 
indicates they are not viable 

•  Assessed the ability to finance any planned future 

exploration and evaluation activity. 

2.  Provision for foreign tax 

Why significant  

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The Group is subject to the tax laws of both Australia and 
Malawi. As disclosed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial 
statements, the Group recognised a provision for foreign tax 
based upon assessments received, which the Group is 
currently disputing. In determining the amount of the 
provision recognised, the Group has taken into account legal 
precedent and the advice of external experts. This is an area 
of significant judgment as detailed in Note 3(iii) of the 
consolidated financial statements. 

We evaluated the provision for foreign tax and assessed 
correspondence from tax authorities and external tax 
advisors.  

We assessed the adequacy of the taxation provisions by 
considering factors such as the risk profile of each matter. 
We evaluated the judgments made in relation to the 
likelihood of litigation from tax authorities by comparing the 
Group's assessment against our own independent views. 

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

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information 
included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report, but does not include the financial report and our 
auditor’s report thereon. 

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited 
Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation 

For personal use only 
 
 
 
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report and 
our related assurance opinion. 

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 Group’s ability to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease 
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes 
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted in accordance with 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. 

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

• 

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

•  Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures 

that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the 
effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. 

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

• 

Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the 
disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a 
manner that achieves fair presentation. 

•  Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or 

business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible 
for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for 
our audit opinion. 

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

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

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