CHAIRMAN’S LETTER 

C 
I am pleased to write to you as Chairman of Greenvale Energy Limited (“Greenvale” or “the Company”). 

During the financial year, the Company engaged SRK  Consulting Pty Ltd (SRK) with providing an Independent 
Geologist Report (IGR) on the Company’s main undertaking asset, the Alpha tenement.   A couple of pleasing 
aspects came from this review and they were the high yield from the resource, at least four times the volume 
of  oil  from  one  tonne  of  Rundle  or  Stuart  oil  shale  and  at  least  seven  times  the  oil  from  one  tonne  of  Julia 
Creek oil shale and secondly that the potential to be able to extend the level of resource. 

SRK have also determined a Prospective Resource in the range of 25.1 MMBbls to 50.2 MMBbls, with a mid-
point  of  33.4  MMBbls    This  Resource,  together  with  the  above  findings  are  pleasing  and  assists  in  the 
justification of continuing work with this project.   

The  Company  will  continue  work  on  the  project  and  SRK  have  been  appointed  to  undertake  further  work 
between  now  and  31  December  2018.    Further  details  on  the  results  of  SRK  work  will  be  outlined  in  an 
announcement dated 17 September 2018.  Suffice to say, the work undertaken is to be designed to so as to 
achieve maximum value for shareholders from this project. 

In  addition,  the  Board  has  spent  a  considerable  amount  of  their  personal  time  to  review  and  evaluate  the 
project for potential investment opportunities.  The Board’s criteria has been quite specific, which is that any 
amount invested must be for a certain amount and used for project and that any future investment would be 
at the election of the Board of Greenvale.  As outlined in this report, after spending a considerable amount of 
time  on  reviewing  projects  in  Ghana  and  Egypt  projects,  the  Company  has  since  withdrawn  from  those 
opportunities.  Potentially, the Ghana project could have fitted the above criteria, but it was due to the critical 
due diligence issues which resulted in the withdrawing from that investment. 

Your Board is committed to diversifying its interests in Greenvale, whilst  at the same time pursuing its main 
undertaking business undertaking, Alpha project. This strategy is considered to be important for ensuring the 
future  of  Greenvale.        The  Company  has  announced  since  balance  date  that  it  was  now  looking  at  an 
investment  in gold project in Nevada and that the Directors are working actively to finalise this opportunity.    

Since balance date, Mr Michael Povey resigned as a Director of the Company. The Board thanks Mr Povey for 
his contribution to the Company.    

Finally, I would like to thank the shareholders of the Company for their continued support. 

Yours sincerely 

Elias (Leo) Khouri 
Chairman

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS 

About Torbanite  

The Alpha deposit a torbanite shale.  Torbanite is one of the richest variety of oil shale known (oil yields range 
from  200600l/T0M)  and  deposits  result  from  the  accumulation  of  a  single  species  of  algal  remains  whilst 
cannel coal is another type of oil shale that is derived from the accumulation of plant remains. 

Alpha  torbanite  deposit  lies  within  the  axis  of  the  Glen  Avon  Syncline,  a  south-west  plunging  structure  that 
occurs  on  the  eastern  flank  of  the  Permian  Galilee  Basin,  which  separates  the  Voltiguer  Anticline  from  the 
Avonmore Anticline.  The deposit is part  of the Permian  Colinlea  Sandstone, which  contains 150 m of cross-
bedded sandstone  with  minor conglomerate,  siltstone and mudstone.   The lower  seam crops out  in  Tommy 
Staines Gully and, similar to the upper seam, dips at 2° - 5° to west (Hutton, 1995).  The Colinlea Sandstone is 
thought to be an alluvial plain deposit (Table), with the coal deposited in swamps on this plain.  The torbanite 
is  thought  to  have  been  deposited  from  algae  in  a  lacustrine  environment  when  water  entering  the  system 
held  little  sediment  or  organic  material.  The  richer  torbanite  is  a  dark  green  to  grey,  massive,  fine-grained, 
homogeneous rock, with a low specific gravity.  The lower seam is graded and appears similar to cannel coal, 
being dark grey to black and slightly banded.

Comparable oil shale volumes and yields 

Hutton  (1996)  recognised  the  Alpha  oil  shale  deposit  as  one  of  the  smaller  deposits  with  respect  to  total 
resources, but the very high yields from the torbanite compensate for this.  On a weight for weight basis, one 
tonne of Alpha torbanite produces at least four times the volume of oil from one tonne of Rundle or Stuart oil 
shale  and  at  least  seven  times  the  oil  from  one  tonne  of  Julia  Creek  oil  shale.    One tonne  of  cannel  coal 
produces approximately the same volume of oil as one tonne of Rundle or Stuart oil shale and slightly more oil 
than one tonne of Julia Creek oil shale. 

Comparative data  for various oil shales demonstrates the  high  potential yields from the Alpha  deposit is  set 
out below:

Activities undertaken 

During  the  year,  the  Company  appointed  SRK  to  undertake  a  comprehensive  and  detailed  review  of  all  the 
available information on the Alpha  oil shale project  and completed an Independent  Geological Report  (IGR).  
Following  completion  of  this  report,  SRK  has  determined  a  Prospective  Resource  (un-risked)  under  the 
Petroleum Resource Management System (PRMS, 2007), as shown in Table 2 below.

Prospective Resource (un-risked) 99.99% attributable to the Company. 

It is noted that oil shales do not contain liquid hydrocarbons or oil, as do natural petroleum source rocks. In 
order to obtain oil, the oil shale has to be heated in an oxygen-free atmosphere in a vessel (retort). 
The Alpha oil shale deposit consists of two seams: an upper seam of cannel coal with an average thickness of 
1.12 m, and a lower seam of cannel coal containing a lens of torbanite, which has an average thickness of 1.9 
m. The torbanite has a high oil shale yield resulting from the accumulation of algal remains. 

Other key conclusions formed by SRK were as follows: 

• 

• 

that  based  on  past  reports,  that  the  exploration  results  are  sufficient  to  define  the  basic  resource 
potential  at  the  Alpha  oil  shale  project.    Further  additions  to  the  resource  potential  are  possible.  
However,  the  extent  of  the  defined  torbanite  appears  localised  within  MDL330.    Other  torbanite 
bodies may be located by regional exploration; and  

the  continuity  of  the  torbanite  (telalginite)  layer  in  the  cannel  coal  appears  discontinuous.    The 
existing core holes (mainly in MDL330) indicate that further infill drilling is warranted and that PRMS 
Contingent  Resources  and  Reserves  additions  could  be  undertaken  at  minimal  cost  after  the 
application  of  various  recovery  factors.    The  Company  will  evaluate  this  in  conjunction  with  the 
Programme  of  Works  already  agreed  with  the  Queensland  Department  of  Natural  Resources  and 
Energy;  

• 

although  an  economic  analysis  of  the  project  is  yet  to  be  completed,  it  is  apparent  that  increasing 
overburden depth in the adjacent EPMs (EPM 25792 and EPM 25795) will be a significant factor for

any future viability; and  

• 

Professor  Hutton  (1996)  recognised  the  Alpha  oil  shale  deposit  as  one  of  the  smaller  deposits  with 
respect  to  total  resources.  However,  on  a  weight  for  weight  basis,  one  tonne  of  Alpha  torbanite 
produces  at  least  four  times  the  volume  of  oil  from  one  tonne  of  Rundle  or  Stuart  oil  shale  and  at 
least seven times the oil from one tonne of Julia Creek oil shale. 

Statement of Resources and Reserves  

At  this  time,  no  statement  of  Resources  and  Reserves  has  been  possible  as  the  data  is  partially  out-dated, 
poorly preserved and often incomplete. For this reason, it was reclassified as an Exploration Target in terms of 
the  JORC  Code  2012.  Subsequently  SRK  undertook  an  evaluation  of  the  Resource  under  PRMS  which  is 
probability based.  SRK’s estimate is equivalent to a Prospective Resource (unrisked) under PRMS (2007).  

Statement of Significant Mineralization  

SRK’s estimate of Prospective Resources (discovered and therefore unrisked) within MDL330are shown in the 
Table below.

SRK understands from reports that the exploration results are sufficient to define the basic resource potential 
at  the  Alpha  oil  shale  project.    Further  additions  are  possible  however  the  extent  of  the  defined  torbanite 
appears  localised  within  MDL330.    Other  torbanite  bodies  may  be  located  by  regional  exploration.    The 
continuity of the torbanite (telalginite) layer in the cannel coal appears discontinuous. 

Competent Person Statement  

The  information  in  this  announcement  is  based  on  and  fairly  represents  information  and  supporting 
documentation  prepared  by  Dr  Bruce  McConachie  a  Competent  Person  who  is  a  Member  of  The 
Australasian  Institute  of  Mining  and  Metallurgy,  the  Society  of  Petroleum  Engineers  and  the  American 
Association of Petroleum Geologists.  Dr McConachie consents to the inclusion in this annual report of the 
matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. 

Corporate Matters 

Strategic direction and acquisitions 

During the year, the Company  assessed  a  number of potential investment  opportunities for the purposes of 
diversifying its investment  strategy.    In particular,  two  projects that were in the area  of exploration of  gold 
were considered: 

▪  Ghana 

During  the  year,  members  of  the  Board  visited  Ghana  to  assess  the  merits  of  several  gold  projects  in  the 
country.  There  was  one  particular  project  that  was  of  interest  and  key  commercial  terms  were  reached.   
Unfortunately, after considerable investment in time and effort, the project was deemed to be inappropriate 
for  Greenvale  as  there  were  certain  due  diligence  obstacles    arising  from  the  review.    The  Company’s

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS 

announced in its June 2018 quarterly activities report, not to pursue this project.  

▪ 

Egypt 

The Board also explored a concession based in Egypt. The concession has been subject to a rock chip sampling 
and  trench  excavation  and  sampling.  Additionally,  there  has  also  been  a  geological  mapping  and  satellite 
interpretation of geological features conducted on the concession.   
A proposed a joint venture with the existing vendor of the project, whereby the Company would acquire and 
majority share in the project, after agreeing to making a certain investment.    However, the vendor required 
the Company’s commitment to extend beyond the initial investment and this commitment was considered to 
be too significant.  Accordingly, as announced on 17 September 2018, the Company has withdrawn from the 
discussions for this project.   

Cash management  

The Company continues to invest the surplus funds from the sale to QER on interest bearing deposit until they 
are ready for use in the operations of the Company and/or any potential acquisition or investment 
opportunities. 

Board changes  

On the 7th August 2018, the Company announced the resignation of Mr Povey. The Company is reviewing its 
requirements for a person who fits the role as technical director. 

Risks 

The Company is subject to a number of risks, including but not limited to the following: 

• 

• 
• 

• 

• 

• 
• 

exploration risks – there is no guarantee that the exploration activities of the Company will result in the 
location of resource for sale; 
there is no guarantee that the Company will achieve JORC standard on its project; 
technological risk – even if resource is found, there is no guarantee that the processing of the resource 
will be able to occur; 
sufficient volume for commercialisation – there is no guarantee that an economic level of resource will 
be found; 
changes in oil prices – there is no guarantee that the oil prices will remain at the current levels and as a 
result, a further decline in oil prices, will affect the economic value of the Alpha Resources project; 
loss of key personnel – the loss of key personnel may affect the commercialisation of the project; and  
funding  risk  –  the  commercialisation  of  the  project  is  dependent  upon  significant  funding,  none  of 
which can be assured by the Company.

Council 

involved 

Given  the  current  size  of  the  Company,  the 
Company has not adopted a formal Diversity Policy 
as  the  Board  has  determined  that  the  benefits  of 
the  initiatives  recommended  by  the  ASX  Corporate 
Governance 
are 
disproportionate  to  the  costs 
in  the 
implementation  of  such  strategies.    Further,  given 
the size of the Company, the setting of measurable 
objectives are not likely to yield meaningful results 
in the context of a company that only employs four 
persons,  being  its  Board,  one  of  whom  is  also  the 
Company Secretary. 
Instead,  the  Board  has  undertaken  to  adopt  a 
Diversity Policy in line with the recommendations of 
the  ASX  Corporate  Governance  Council  once  the 
Company  employs  a  workforce  of  20  or  more 
people. 

Whilst the Company’s workforce remains below this 
threshold,  the  Board  will  continue  to  drive  the 
Company’s  diversity  strategies  of  the  Company  on 
an  informal  basis  and  will  apply  the  initiatives 
contained  in  its  Diversity  Policy  to  the  extent  that 
the Board considers relevant and necessary.

-  Mr  Khouri  was  appointed  on  7  February 
2011  and  has  served  as  a  director  for

is  a 
substantial  shareholder  of  the  Company  which 
precludes  him  from  qualifying  as  an  independent 
director under the guidelines prescribed by the ASX 
Corporate Governance Council. 

Despite not being independent, the Board considers 
Khouri to be the most appropriate Director to act as 
Chairman.  The roles of the Chairman and Managing 
Director are not held by the same person.

The Board of a listed entity should: 

YES 

(a)  have a committee or committees to 

oversee risk, each of which: 

(i) 

(ii) 

has at least three members, 
a majority of whom are 
independent Directors; and 

is chaired by an 
independent Director, 

and disclose: 

(iii) 

(iv) 

(v) 

the charter of the 
committee; 

the members of the 
committee; and 

as at the end of each 
reporting period, the 
number of times the 
committee met throughout 
the period and the 
individual attendances of 
the members at those 
meetings; or 

(b)  if it does not have a risk committee or 
committees that satisfy (a) above, 
disclose that fact and the process it 
employs for overseeing the entity’s 
risk management framework. 

a)  Due  to  its  size  (4  members),  the  Board  has 
determined  that  the  function  of  the  Audit 
Committee  is  most  efficiently  carried  out  with 
full  board  participation  (excluding  Mr  Fayad) 
and  accordingly,  the  Company has  elected  not 
to establish a separate Audit Committee at this 
stage.   

As a result, the duties that would ordinarily be 
assigned  to  the  Audit  Committee  under  the 
Audit Committee Charter are carried out by the 
full  board.  The  qualification  and  experience  of 
all the members of each of the members is set 
out in the Directors’ Report which is contained 
within  the  Company’s  annual  report  and  also

Given  the  size  of  the  Company,  the  Board  had

on an informal basis and remains satisfied that the 
Company’s  existing  processes  and  controls  are 
operating effectively. 

YES 

The Company is exposed to environmental, political 
and  social  sensitivities  around  the  oil  shale 
extraction technologies. 

Previously,  a  moratorium  restricted  the  Company’s 
ability  to  develop  its  oil  shale  tenements.    Despite 
having  the  moratorium 
lifted,  the  Company’s 
exposure to environmental and social sustainability 
risks in this regard still remain.

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE STATEMENT 

OPTIONS 

No  options  were  issued  during  the  financial  year.    There  are  no  unissued  ordinary  shares  of  the  Company 
under option at the date.  The Company had  31,895,299 with exercise prices of $0.08 and $0.10 that lapsed 
on the 31 August 2018.  

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS AND AUDITORS 

The Group has not agreed to indemnify any director, officer or auditor against liabilities that may arise from 
their position as director, officer or auditor of the Company except as follows: 

The  Company  and  Directors  paid  premiums  based  on  normal  commercial  terms  and  conditions  to  insure  all 
Directors, officers and employees of the Company against the cost and expenses in defending claims against 
the individual while performing services for the Company.  

PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY 

No person has applied for leave of court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or intervene in any 
proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company

The Group was not a party to any such proceedings during the year.  

NON-AUDIT SERVICES 

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year 
by the auditor are outlined in note 20 to the financial statements.  

The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services is compatible with the general standard of 
independence  for  auditors  imposed  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  None  of  the  services  provided  by  the 
auditors  undermine  the  general  principles  relating  to  auditor  independence  as  set  out  in  APES  110  Code  of 
Ethics  for  Professional  Accountants  issued  by  the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical  Standards  Board, 
including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity 
for the company, acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing risks economic risks and rewards. The 
nature and scope of  each type of non-audit  service provide means that auditor independence has not been 
compromised.  

OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY WHO ARE FORMER PARTNERS OF RSM AUSTRALIA PARTNERS 

There are no officers of the company who are former partners of RSM Australia Partners.

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE STATEMENT 

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) 

This  report  details  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration  for  each  key  management  person  of  the 
consolidated entity.  Key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and 
controlling the activities of the consolidated entity.  Key management personnel comprise the Directors of the 
Company and Secretary of the Company.  The Company does not have any other specified executives. 

Compensation levels for key management personnel and secretaries of the Company are competitively set to 
attract  and  retain  appropriately  qualified  and  experienced  directors  and  executives.    The  full  Board  in  its 
capacity as the Remuneration Committee obtains advice on the appropriateness of compensation packages of 
the Company given trends in comparative companies both locally and internationally.  

The remuneration policy of the Company has been designed to remunerate the directors and key management 
personnel based upon their  skills and contributions to the Company. The Board’s policy for determining the 
nature  and  amount  of  remuneration  for  key  management  personnel  of  the  Company  is  encapsulated  in  the 
Remuneration Committee Charter. 

Executive  directors  may  be  remunerated  with  equity  incentives  along  with  base  cash  payments  and  the 
opportunity to earn a bonus payment in suitable circumstances.  

Whilst  Non-Executive  Directors  do  not  commonly  receive  performance  related  compensation,  given  the  size 
and  nature  of  the  Company  and  the  involvement  of  the  Non-Executive  Directors  in  certain  circumstances 
performance related remuneration may be deemed appropriate.  Directors’ fees cover all main Board activities 
and membership of committees.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Notes 
1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
This financial report for the year ended 30 June 2018 of consists of Greenvale Energy NL (the Company) and its 
controlled subsidiaries (the Group or Consolidated Entity).  

Greenvale is a  company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the 
Australian Securities Exchange.  

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 17 September 2018 by the directors of the Company.  

A.  BASIS OF PREPARATION 

The  financial  report  is  a  general  purpose  financial  report  which  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.  The Group is a for profit 
entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. 

Australian  Accounting  Standards  set  out  accounting  policies  that  the  AASB  has  concluded  would  result  in  a 
financial  report  containing  relevant  and  reliable  information  about  transactions,  events  and  conditions.  
Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply 
with International Financial Reporting Standards.  

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

The  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Australian  dollars  which  is  the  Company’s  functional  and 
presentation currency. 

B.  GOING CONCERN 

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

C.  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by the 
Company at the end of the reporting period.  A controlled entity is any entity over which the Company has the 
ability  and  right  to  govern  the  financial  and  operating  policies  so  as  to  obtain  benefits  from  the  entity’s 
activities.  

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities 
in the consolidated group have been eliminated in full on consolidation.  

Where  controlled  entities  have  entered  or  left  the  consolidated  entity  during  the  year,  the  financial 
performance of those entities is included only for the period of the year that they were controlled.

A.B.N. 54 000 743 555 

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

D. 

INCOME TAX 

Income  tax  expense  comprises  current  and  deferred  tax.    Income  tax  expense  is  recognised  in  profit  or  loss 
except  to  the  extent  that  it  relates  to  items  recognised  directory  in  equity,  in  which  case  it  is  recognised  in 
equity. 

Current  tax  is  the  expected  tax  payable  on  the  taxable  income  for  the  year,  using  tax  rates  enacted  or 
substantively  enacted  at  the  reporting  date.    Current  tax  liabilities  /  (assets)  are  therefore  measured  at  the 
amounts  expected  to  be  paid  to  /  (recovered  from)  the  relevant  taxation  authority.    Deferred  tax  expense 
reflects movements in deferred tax asset and liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses.  

Current and deferred income tax expense is charged or credited to equity instead of the profit or loss when 
the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  ascertained  based  on  temporary  differences  arising  between  the  tax 
bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.  Deferred tax assets also 
result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available.  No deferred income 
tax  will  be  recognised  from  the  initial  recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability,  excluding  a  business  combination, 
where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.  

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when 
they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.  Their 
measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount 
or the related asset or liability. 

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent 
that it is probable that  future taxable profit will be available, against  which  the benefits of the deferred tax 
asset can be utilised.  

E.  EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION EXPENDITURE 

Exploration and evaluation costs are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on a  project  by project 
basis pending determination of the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the project.  The capitalised 
costs are presented as both tangible or intangible exploration and evaluation assets according to the nature of 
the assets acquired.  When a licence is relinquished or a project abandoned, the related costs are recognised in 
the statement of comprehensive income immediately.  

Exploration  and  evaluation  assets  are  assessed  for  impairment  if  (i)  sufficient  data  exists  to  determine 
technical feasibility and commercial viability, and (ii) facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount 
exceeds the recoverable amount.  For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets 
are allocated to cash-generating units consistent with the determination of reportable segments. 
Upon  determination  of  proven  reserves,  intangible  exploration  and  evaluation  assets  attributable  to  those 
reserves  are  first  tested  for  impairment  and  then  reclassified  from  exploration  and  evaluation  assets  to  a 
separate category within tangible assets. 

Amortisation is not charged on exploration and evaluation assets until they are available for use.  

Pre-licence costs are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as incurred.  Expenditure deemed 
unsuccessful is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income immediately.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

F.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 

Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the Company 
becomes  a  party  to  the  contractual  provisions  of  the  instrument.    Trade  date  accounting  is  adopted  for 
financial assets that are delivered within the timeframes established by marketplace convention.  

Derecognition 
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt  of cash flows  expire or the asset  is 
transferred  to  another  party  whereby  the  Company  no  longer  has  any  significant  continuing  involvement  in 
the  risks  and  rewards  associated  with  the  asset.    Financial  liabilities  are  derecognised  if  the  Company’s 
obligations specified in the contract are discharged, cancelled or expire. 

Classification and Subsequent Measurement 

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 and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised 
in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial asset is derecognised. 

ii. 

Available-for-sale financial assets 

Available-for-sale investments are non-derivative financial assets that are either not capable of being classified 
into other categories of financial assets due to their nature or they are designated as such by management. 
They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or 
determinable payments. 

iii. 

Financial liabilities 

Non-derivative  financial  liabilities  other  than  financial  guarantees  are  subsequently  measured  at  amortised 
cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial 
liability is derecognised. 

Fair value 
The fair value of investments in the equity shares of related parties is determined based on current last trade 
prices quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange at balance date. 

The fair value of unlisted securities cannot be reliably measured, as variability in the range of reasonable fair 
value estimates is significant.   

G.  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits.  

H.  SHARE CAPITAL 

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.  Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares 
and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit.  

I.  REVENUE AND OTHER INCOME 

Financial  income  comprises  interest  income  and  dividend  income.    Interest  income  is  recognised  in  the 
statement of comprehensive income as it accrues, using the effective interest rate method.  Dividend income 
is recognised on the date that the Company’s right to receive payment is established.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

J.  CURRENT & NON CURRENT CLASSIFICATION 

Assets  and  liabilities  are  presented  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  based  on  current  and  non-current 
classification. 

An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in 
normal operating cycle; it is  held primarily  for the purpose of  trading; it is expected  to be realised within 12 
months  after  the  reporting  period;  or  the  asset  is  cash  or  cash  equivalent  unless  restricted  from  being 
exchanged  or  used  to  settle  a  liability  for  at  least  12  months  after  the  reporting  period.  All  other  assets  are 
classified as non-current. 

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held 
primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there 
is  no  unconditional  right  to  defer  the  settlement  of  the  liability  for  at  least  12  months  after  the  reporting 
period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.  

K. 

IMPAIRMENT 

The carrying amount  of non-financial assets other than  exploration and evaluation assets are reviewed each 
reporting  date  whether  there  is  any  indication  of  impairment.    If  any  such  indications  exist,  the  assets 
recoverable amount is estimated.  

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds 
its recoverable amount.  Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 

Calculation of recoverable amount 
The  recoverable  amount  of  receivables  is  calculated  as  the  present  value  of  estimated  future  cash  flows, 
discounted at the original effective interest rate. 

The recoverable amount of other assets is the greater of their net selling price and value in use.  In assessing 
value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discounted 
rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value and the risks specific to the asset. 

Available-for-sale financial assets 
Where a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset has been recognised directly in equity 
and  there  is  objective  evidence  that  the  asset  is  impaired,  the  cumulative  loss  that  had  been  recognised 
directly in equity is recognised in profit or loss even though the financial asset has not been derecognised.  The 
amount of the cumulative loss that is recognised in profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost 
and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss. 

L.  GOODS AND SERVICES TAX (GST) 

Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the  amount  of  GST,  except  where  the  amount  of  GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority.  In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part 
of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. 

Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  with  the  amount  of  GST  included.  The  net  amount  of  GST  recoverable 
from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.  

M.  EARNINGS PER SHARE 

The  Company  presents  basic  and  diluted  earnings  per  share  (EPS)  data  for  its  ordinary  shares.    Basic  EPS  is 
calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted 
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the 

40| G R V   –   A n n u a l   R e p o r t   2 0 1 8

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

profit  or  loss  attributable  to  ordinary  shareholders  and  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares 
outstanding  for  the  effects  of  any  dilutive  potential  ordinary  shares,  which  comprise  convertible  notes  and 
share options granted. 

N.  TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES 

 Trade  receivables  are  recognised  initially  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost,  less 
provision  for  impairment.    Trade  receivables  are  due  for  settlement  within  30  days  from  the  date  of 
recognition.  Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis.  Debts which are known to be 
uncollectible are written off.  

O.  ASSETS CLASSIFIED AS HELD FOR SALE 

Assets  are  classified  as  held  for  sale  if  their  carrying  amount  will  be  recovered  principally  through  a  sale 
transaction rather than through continued use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and 
fair  value  less  costs  of  disposal.  For  assets  to  be  classified  as  held  for  sale,  they  must  be  available  for 
immediate sale in their present condition and their sale must be highly probable. 

An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write down of the assets to fair value less costs 
of  disposal.  A  gain  is  recognised  for  any  subsequent  increases  in  fair  value  less  costs  of  disposal  of  these 
assets, but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. 

These  assets  are  not  depreciated  or  amortised  while  they  are  classified  as  held  for  sale.  Interest  and  other 
expenses attributable to the liabilities of assets held for sale continue to be recognised. 

Assets  classified  as  held  for  sale  and  the  assets  of  disposal  groups  classified  as  held  for  sale  are  presented 
separately on the face of the statement of financial position, as current assets. The liabilities of assets held for 
sale are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position, as current liabilities. 

P.  TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES 

Trade  payables  and  other  payables  are  carried  at  amortised  costs  and  represent  liabilities  for  goods  and 
services provided by the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group 
becomes  obligated  to  make  future  payments  in  respect  of  the  purchase  of  these  goods  and  services.    The 
amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 

Q.  COMPARATIVE FIGURES 

When  required  by  Accounting  Standards,  comparative  figures  have  been  adjusted  to  conform  to  changes  in 
presentation for the current financial year. 

R.  USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS 

The  presentation  of  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements,  estimates  and 
assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,  liabilities, 
income and expenses.   Actual results  may differ from the  estimates.  Estimates and underlying assumptions 
are reviewed on an ongoing basis.  Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the 
estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. 

Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure 
The  Group’s  accounting  policy  for  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  is  set  out  at  Note  1(c).    The 
application of this policy necessarily requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to 
future  events  and  circumstances.    Any  such  estimates  and  assumptions  may  change  as  new  information 
becomes  available.    If,  after  having  capitalised  expenditure  under  the  policy,  it  is  concluded  that  the

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

expenditures are unlikely to be recovered by future exploitation or sale, then the relevant capitalised amount 
will be written off to the statement of comprehensive income. 

Share Based payment transactions 
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of 
the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.  The fair value is determined from market value.  

S.  ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS 

During the current  year, the Group adopted all of the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations applicable to its operations which became mandatory. 

T.  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS FOR APPLICATION IN FUTURE PERIODS 
The  AASB  has  issued  new  and  amended  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  that  have  mandatory 
application  dates  for  future  reporting  periods.  The  Group  has  decided  against  early  adoption  of  these 
standards. The following table summarises those future requirements, and their impact on the Group:

Ordinary shares participate in dividends and are entitled to one vote per share at shareholders meetings.  In the 
event of winding up the Company, ordinary shareholders rank after creditors and are entitled to any proceeds 
of liquidation in proportion to the number of shares held.  

b)  Capital Management 

Management controls the capital of the Company in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the 
shareholders  with  adequate  returns  and  ensure  that  the  company  can  fund  its  operations  and  continue  as  a 
going concern. 

The Company’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial 
assets.  There are no externally imposed capital requirements. 

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

There  have  been  no  changes  in  the  strategy  adopted  by management  to  control  the  capital  of  the  Company 
since the prior year.  The gearing ratios for the year ended 30 June 2018 and 30 June 2017 are as follows:

13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 

a)  Financial Risk Management Policies 

The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, short-term investments and accounts 
receivable from related parties.  The Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposure to 
financial risks. 

I. 

Treasury Risk Management 

There have been no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management  during the year.  The 
Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.  

II. 

Other Market Price Risk 

Equity price risk arises from available-for-sale equity securities.  Management monitors the securities 
in  its  investment  portfolio  based  on  market  indices.    Material  investments  within  the  portfolio  are 
managed on an individual basis and any buy or sell decisions are approved by the Board. 

III. 

Capital Management 

The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market 
confidence and to sustain future developments of the business. 

IV. 

Financial Risk Exposures and Management 

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

A.B.N. 54 000 743 555 

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Interest rate risk 

The Group does not enter into interest rate swaps, forward rate agreements or interest rate options 
to manage cash flow risks associated with interest  rates on borrowings that are floating, or to alter 
interest rate exposures arising from mismatches in repricing dates between assets and liabilities.  

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  manages  liquidity  risk  by  monitoring  forecast  cash  flows  and  ensuring  that  access  to 
adequate funding is maintained.  

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.  There is negligible credit risk on financial asset, 
excluding  investments,  since  there  is  no  exposure  to  individual  customers  or  countries  and  the 
Group’s  exposure  is  limited  to  the  amount  of  cash,  short-term  investments  and  receivables  which

Price risk 

The  Group  is  exposed  to  commodity  price  risk  through  its  interests  to  the  Alpha  mining  lease.  
Changes in market price for oil impact the economic viability of the mining leases.  The Group has not 
entered into any hedges in relation to these commodities.  It is not possible to quantify the effect on 
profit or equity of any change in commodity prices.

21. SEGMENT REPORTING 

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are used by the Board (the 
chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. 

The  operating  segments  are  identified  by  the  Board  based  on  the  phase  of  operation  within  the  mining 
industry.  For management purposes, the Group has organised its operations into two reportable segments on 
the basis of stage of development as follows: 

• 

• 

development assets; and  

exploration and evaluation assets, which includes assets that are associated with the determination 

and assessment of the existence of commercial economic reserves. 

The  Board  as  a  whole  regularly  reviews  the  identified  segments  in  order  to  allocate  resources  to  the 
segment and to assess its performance. 

During  the  year  ended  30  June  2018,  the  consolidated  entity  had  no  development  assets.    The  Board 
considers that it has only operated in one segment, being mineral exploration within Australia. 

The consolidated entity is domiciled in Australia.  There was nil revenue from external customers in 2018 
(2017: Nil).  Segment revenues are allocated based on the country in which the customer is located.   

22. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT  
To the Members of Greenvale Energy Limited and 
its controlled subsidiaries  

Opinion 
We have audited the financial report of Greenvale Energy Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), 
which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018, the consolidated statement 
of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of 
cash  flows  for  the  year  then  ended,  and  notes  to  the  financial  statements,  including  a  summary  of  significant 
accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.  

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

(i)  giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2018 and of its financial 

performance for the year then ended; 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 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 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. 

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.

Key Audit Matter 

How our audit addressed this matter 

Carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation 

Refer to Note 10 in the financial statements 

As disclosed in note 10, the Group held capitalized 
exploration and evaluation expenditure of $976,535 
as  at  30  June  2018  which  represents  a  significant 
asset of the Group. 

The  carrying  value  of  exploration  and  evaluation 
assets  is  subjective  based  on  Group’s  ability,  and 
intention,  to  continue  to  explore  the  asset.  The 
carrying value may also be impacted by the mineral 
reserves  and  resources  may  not  be  commercially 
viable  for  extraction.  This  creates  a  risk  that  the 
amounts stated in the financial statements may not 
be recoverable. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  Considering  the  Group’s  right  to  explore  in  the 
relevant exploration area which included obtaining 
and assessing supporting documentation such as 
obtaining independent searches of the company’s 
tenement holdings 

•  Considering  the  Group’s  intention  to  carry  out 
significant exploration and evaluation activity in the 
relevant  exploration  area  which 
included  an 
assessment  of  the  Group's  future  cash  flow 
forecasts  and  enquired  of  management  and  the 
Board of Directors as to the intentions and strategy 
of the Group 

•  Assessing  recent  exploration  activity  in  a  given 
exploration  license  area  to  determine  if  there  are 
any  negative  indicators  that  would  suggest  a 
potential impairment of the capitalized exploration 
and evaluation expenditure 

•  Assessing  the  commercial  viability  of  results 
relating  to  exploration  and  evaluation  activities 
carried out in the relevant license area 

•  Assessing the ability to finance any planned future 

exploration and evaluation activity. 

Other Information  
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included 
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2018, 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 accordingly we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

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

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

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

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

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 
Our  objectives  are  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  report  as  a  whole  is  free  from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. 
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance 
with 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 at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf. 
This description forms part of our auditor's report.  

Report on the Remuneration Report 

Opinion on the Remuneration Report 
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 29 to 31 of the directors' report for the year ended 
30 June 2018.  

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Greenvale Energy Limited for the year ended 30 June 2018, complies 
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.  

Responsibilities 
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report 
in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 
Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
