Chairman’s Report
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Intra Energy Corporation Limited ("IEC", "Intra Energy" or "the Company"),
it is my pleasure to present this summary of operations for this Annual Financial Report for 2017.
Intra Energy remains the major producer and supplier of thermal coal in East Africa through its 70% ownership
of Tancoal Energy Limited ("Tancoal") which operates the Ngaka coal mine in south west Tanzania. The full year
production was 441,815 (2016: 248,468) tonnes and sales were 422,569 (2016: 246,197) tonnes, approximately
70% more than sales in the previous year. Sales revenue for 2017 was A$22.706 million (2016: A$14.408 million).
Sales were to the domestic and regional market in Eastern Africa which is one of the highest growth regions
internationally. Sales were mainly to customers in Tanzania (86%), with the remainder to customers in Kenya
(9%) and Rwanda and Uganda (5%). 79% of sales were made to the cement industry, 9% to the paper and ceramic
industries and 6% to textile manufacturers.
The increase in sales during 2017 was mainly due to the Ministry of Energy and Mines making a decision in August
2016 to ban the import of coal into Tanzania. The decision took a few months to implement, the average sales
per month in the six months to 31 December 2016 was 26,515 whereas the average sales per month in the six
months to 30 June 2017 which includes the rainy season were 41,853. Since the end of the financial year there
has been a slowdown in sales to the cement industry within Tanzania, it is not yet known how long the slowdown
will continue. Infrastructure improvements within Tanzania that allow easier access to the port at Mtwara and
higher prices for coal shipped from Richards Bay have Tancoal now aggressively seeking export sales both within
East Africa and to other markets.
In March 2017 Tancoal reached an agreement with the responsible Ministries in Tanzania to allocate an area of
its coal tenements to Dangote Industries. The agreement does not impact current mining operations but has
had an impact on resources.
The closed Malawi operations were held for sale during the year reducing losses from A$4,330,000 in 2016 to
$121,000 in 2017, which included some further closure costs and a part reversal of the impairment provision.
The buyer identified in the prior year did not progress to a sale but other buyers have shown interest in the
business and discussions are ongoing. The sale of assets in the drilling operations is progressing.
Operating cash flow has been extremely tight with the additional costs incurred to more than double production.
Total trading losses for the year totalled A$4,422,000 (2016: A$8,197,000) for the Group which includes holding
and some closure costs of Malawi (A$403,000) and the drilling operations (A$94,000).
The coal-fired power station project in Malawi is on hold until a suitable power station developer is found. The
270MW "Ngaka" minemouth coal-fired power station project in Tanzania is a partnership with Sinohydro
Corporation Limited (“Sinohydro”) from China, one of China's largest international power developers. Sinohydro
has completed a Feasibility Study for the power station. Sinohydro will be responsible for the engineering,
procurement and construction of the power station and IEC will be responsible for the North Ngaka Coal Mine
which will supply coal at the rate of approximately 1,200,000 tonnes per year to the power station. Discussions
with Government with the aim of signing a PPA are ongoing with no certainty on the timeline as yet. The Ngaka
Power Station will take approximately 36 months to complete after the signing of the PPA.
IEC maintained its active presence through the Tancoal partnership in significant community development with
the local Women's Group which grows food products on reclaimed mining land and caters to Tancoal workers.
The Women's Group have developed a briquette from coal fines and clay to replace charcoal in cooking fires and
hence saving Tanzanian forests from the harmful effects of the charcoal industry.
IEC and NDC are both pleased to see the development of the Tancoal Mine to be entirely managed by Tanzanians,
one of very few mining operations in Tanzania to be run by Tanzanians for Tanzania.
Sincerely
Graeme Robertson
Chairman – Intra Energy Corporation Limited

Review of Operations
MINING OPERATIONS
IEC’s 100% owned subsidiary, Intra Energy Tanzania Limited (“IETL”), owns a 70% interest in Tancoal Energy
Limited (“Tancoal”), a joint venture with the National Development Corporation of Tanzania (“NDC”), which holds
the remaining 30% interest. Tancoal was granted a Mining Licence (“ML”) by the Tanzanian Government on 18
August 2011 and commenced mining and supply of coal to domestic and regional industrial customers in
Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Zambia and Malawi.
IEC’s flagship project, the Tancoal Mine, is a project of national significance, and remains the major operating
coal mine in Tanzania.

The Tanzanian Government issued a Directive in August 2016 to all Tanzanian coal suppliers and customers,
whereby all imported coal from outside Tanzania would cease immediately. As a result of this Directive, Tancoal’s
sales for the 2017 year increased by more than 70% on the 2016 year, with the sales in the second half averaging
over 40,000 tonnes per month.
Production capacity was doubled at the mine with the introduction of a new mining contractor and improved
efficiency systems. The mine now has the capacity to produce up to 80,000 tonnes per month and can manage
an increased demand from the Tanzanian and export customers.
In March 2017, Tancoal allocated to Dangote Industries a mining area that was under application. The agreement
did not impact current mining operations but it did reduce Tancoal’s coal resources, the JORC Table (Table 1) has
been amended to reflect the change.
Tancoal produces a high quality thermal coal with an energy of 6000K~6,300Kcals/kg which consistently meets
client specifications.
Product coal is sold and distributed from a stockpile at Kitai, some 50 kilometres from the mine pit. It is trucked
by Tancoal to this location along an existing public road. Significant road upgrades and village bypasses, and an
alternative dedicated haul road, have been investigated by the Company, and the former option will be
constructed when funds allow.
As a result of the blanket ban on imported coal, management has entered into discussions with the major cement
and ceramic companies regarding long term contracts and increased coal sales. Those customers that have
signed long term contracts have secured competitive prices for the coal purchased.
MALCOAL (MALAWI)
Malcoal Mining Limited (“Malcoal”) is a joint venture between IEC (90%) and its local partner, Consolidated
Mining Industries Limited (“CMI”, 10%). Malcoal was an important part of IEC’s Eastern African strategy to be
the dominant coal supplier in the region however, Malcoal suffered from intense competition from cheap
imported coal and the decision was made in the prior year to halt operations.
Discussions were entered into with a potential buyer for Malcoal and a Share Purchase Agreement was signed,
however negotiations have not proceeded to a sale. There has been further interest from potential purchasers
in the Malawi assets and the company is working to progress a sale. In the meantime the assets are held for sale
and have been fully impaired in the accounts.
OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT (“OHSE”)
OHSE is an important priority for IEC, and is planned at a policy level in Dar es Salaam and managed and
implemented at the mine sites.
The mine operations are subject to an Environmental Impact Assessment Plan and the operations are regularly
audited by the relevant regulatory authorities. No major issues were identified for the financial year.
Improvements to the storm water drainage systems at the Ngaka mine continued with the upgrading of the

available trenches and ponds and the construction of new trenches and ponds to the new mine development
areas.
PROJECTS
POWER STATION DEVELOPMENT
IEC continues to sponsor two major coal-fired energy projects, Project Pamodzi and Project Ngaka. The sponsor’s
role is to be the originator of the projects. IEC will be the exclusive coal supplier to the proposed power stations.
PROJECT NGAKA (TANZANIA) – 270 MW
In November 2015, IEC announced that it had executed a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with
Sinohydro Corporation Limited (“Sinohydro”) to assess the potential joint development of its 270 MW Ngaka
coal-fired power mine mouth project, located near the Tancoal Mine in Tanzania. The MOU sets out the intention
of IEC and Sinohydro to complete a feasibility study and a financing proposal for the project, and to negotiate a
Joint Venture Agreement for the development of the project. Sinohydro will be the major shareholder with IEC
holding a minor share.
Project Ngaka will use high quality, low sulphur thermal coal from the Tancoal Mine located in south western
Tanzania.
It is proposed to site the generating facilities adjacent to Tancoal's northern coal deposit while the
southern coal deposit will continue to meet the growing industrial and cement requirements of Tanzania and its
neighbours.
Sinohydro is a driving force behind China’s industrial development. It has 130,000 employees and provides one-
stop services for financing, engineering, purchasing, implementation and operation of projects for power, water
conservation, transport infrastructure and civil works such as public and private buildings.
IEC believes that Sinohydro will be an excellent strategic co-developer for Project Ngaka.
PROJECT PAMODZI (MALAWI) – 120 MW
Execution of the PPA term sheet for Project Pamodzi Power Station in Malawi was completed in April 2016 after
long deliberation by the Government of Malawi. This term sheet will form part of the sale of the Malawian
entities, with Tancoal securing an option to supply coal to the power station in Malawi, located across Lake Nyasa
from Tancoal. As the sale of the Malawi assets has not settled, IEC may consider alternative options for the power
project.
EXPLORATION
Limited exploration was undertaken for the financial year, with expenditure controlled so as to preserve cash
whilst still maintaining the Company’s portfolio of tenements in good standing.
During the year three lithium tenements and three graphite tenements were granted in Tanzania.
IEC’s total resources no longer include the resource for Malawi. The resources in Tanzania have been amended
to show the tenement transferred to Dangote Industries during the year.

CORPORATE
Operating cash flow was restricted during the year. The Company had reduced costs by closing the Malawi
operations and reducing expenses in Australia in the prior year but there were significant costs to adding capacity
to the mine during the current year. Coal prices were increased in August 2017 by 10% to offset higher costs of
production. The export price for the company’s coal is competitive and the company is actively seeking export
markets.
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (“CSR”)
COMMUNITY
At IEC our approach to corporate social responsibility (“CSR”) is about partnership with local communities to
develop initiatives to provide social and economic development as well as environmental protection and
conservation in the areas IEC operate.
By developing partnerships with the communities, IEC is helping to foster sustainable development, share the
socio-economic benefits from its operations and alleviate poverty.
IEC’s focus is helping communities by developing infrastructure, education and health opportunities by the
employment of local personnel. It relies on the local community for operational support rather than external
contractors in order to boost the local economy where it operates. IEC makes direct contributions to the
community through building infrastructure and donations of equipment and supplies, and transfers capabilities
and skills to enhance work abilities.
Some of the key challenges associated with investing in Africa relate to governance, capacity building, human
rights, environment and social issues. The mining industry in Tanzania is committed to continue to work in
conjunction with the government and local communities to put in place programs and develop projects that have
a tangible outcome, and priority is given to projects that alleviate poverty, contribute to building skills and
support women’s and youth economic empowerment, especially through education and business ownership.
TANZANIA
MBALAWALA WOMEN’S GROUP (“THE WOMEN’S GROUP”)
The Women’s Group was established in late 2011 after consultation with local women and in partnership with
community leaders. The Women’s Group provides local goods and camp services to the mine employees and is
funded by Tancoal with assistance from a successful grant application from the Australian Government’s Direct
Aid Programme.
Significant progress had been made in having a coal briquette certified by the Tanzanian Bureau of Standards.
These coal briquettes are an alternative to charcoal. Production of briquettes commenced in late June 2016 and
production is slowly increasing. Charcoal production is one of the major contributors to deforestation in
Tanzania.

Review of Operations
ENVIRONMENTAL
During the year a total of 10,000 tree seedlings of indigenous species in the ongoing Tree Nursery Project were
transplanted to the mine site areas, the camp site, stockpile areas, villages surrounding the mine (schools, health
centre) surrounding the mine and around the truck haul road from the mine site to the Amani Makolo sales point.
The launch of the tree transplanting was again covered in the local media and involved district and village leaders.
Construction of trenches and ponds at Ndumbi port stockpile site and the upgrading of the storm water drainage
system at the mine site and Amani Makolo stockpile were also undertaken during the year. The monitoring
continued of acid level in ponds to maintain required pH level. The control of dust emissions continued with an
increase in the number of water bowsers for adequate dust suppression to mine site and to the haul road passing
across villages. Blasting are controlled by monitoring sound level, vibration and dust emission during blasting to
ensure they do not exceed required standard set by Tanzania Bureau of Standard (TBS).

This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for key management personnel of the Company, in
connection with the management of the affairs of the entity and its subsidiaries, during the year to 30 June 2017.
Key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities
of the Company and the Consolidated Entity, including Directors of the Company and other executives. Key
management personnel comprise the Directors of the Company and executives of the Company and the
Consolidated Entity.
A. REMUNERATION POLICY
Remuneration Committee
At 30 June 2017, the function of the Remuneration Committee (“the Committee”) was carried out by the Board.
The function of the Board in fulfilling its corporate governance responsibilities with respect to remuneration is
by reviewing and making appropriate recommendations on:
(a) Remuneration packages of Executive Directors, Non-Executive Directors and Senior Management;
(b) Employee incentive and equity-based plans including the appropriateness of performance hurdles and
total payments proposed.
Remuneration Policy
The Committee adopts the following policies on executive compensation and will bear these policies in mind
during remuneration reviews:
All key executives should be paid fair market Total Fixed Remuneration (“TFR”) for their employment, taking into
account their responsibilities and performance expectations.
All remuneration paid to Directors and Executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Prior to
August 2013 (when the Board resolved that the employee incentive scheme would be suspended), the Company
had a practice of granting shares and/or options to the Executives (being Executive Directors and Senior
Management). The shares granted were valued at the difference between the market price of those shares and
the amount paid by the Executives. Options were valued using the Black-Scholes methodology.
In 2012 the Remuneration Committee initially adopted Performance Rights as the incentive scheme for the
Executive Directors and Senior Management.
The Committee’s policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for
time, commitment and responsibilities. The Committee determines payments to the Non-Executive Directors
and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent
external advice is sought when needed. Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of
the Consolidated Entity. The Directors are not required to hold any shares in the Company under the Company’s
Constitution. However, to align Directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to
hold shares in the Company.
Executive Directors’ Remuneration
In considering the Company’s Remuneration Policy and levels of remuneration for Executives, the Committee
makes recommendations that seek to:
Motivate Executive Directors and Senior Management to pursue long term growth and success of the
Company within an appropriate control framework;
Demonstrate a clear correlation between Executives’ performance and remuneration; and
Align the interests of Executives with the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders.
To the extent that the Company adopts a different remuneration structure for its Executive Directors, the
Committee shall document its reasons for the purpose of disclosure to stakeholders.
In August 2013, the Board resolved that the employee incentive scheme would be suspended for an indefinite
period.

Remuneration Report
Non-Executive Director Remuneration
In considering the Company’s Remuneration Policy and levels of remuneration for Non-Executive Directors, the
Committee is to ensure that:
Fees paid to Non-Executive Directors are within the aggregate amount approved by shareholders and
recommendations are made to the Board with respect to the need for increases to this aggregate amount at
the Company’s Annual General Meeting;
Non-Executive Directors are remunerated by way of fees (in the form of cash);
Non-Executive Directors are not provided with retirement benefits; and
Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to participate in equity-based remuneration schemes designed for
Executives without due consideration and appropriate disclosure to the Company’s shareholders.
To the extent that the Company adopts a different remuneration structure for its Non-Executive Directors, the
Committee shall document its reasons for the purpose of disclosure to stakeholders.
Incentive Scheme
To qualify for the Scheme a person must be an employee and have worked with the Company for a minimum of
6 months (the only exception is to attract Senior Management or a Head of Business and is subject to the approval
of the Remuneration Committee).
The incentive scheme has two components, namely, the Short Term Incentive (“STI”) and Long Term Incentive
(“LTI”) respectively. This is to ensure that the key Executives have short and long term interests of the Company
in mind in their decision making.
In August 2013, the Board resolved that the employee incentive scheme would be suspended for an indefinite
period.
Executive Management
For Executive Directors the performance conditions are 50% external, 50% internal.
Payout of LTI incentive is dependent on the combined score of both the external and internal measures.
STI: 40% of TFR, payable in lump sum annually when an Executive has satisfactorily achieved his or her
performance targets set by the Company.
LTI: 60% of TFR, This is in a form of an equity incentive using Performance Rights as an instrument. Payout will
be based on the performance of the entire management team in achieving exceptional performance for the
Company and its shareholders.
Management
The Management team performance conditions are 1/3 satisfaction of individual performance (agreed Key
Performance Indicators), 1/3 external measure and 1/3 internal measure. The annual individual performance
targets are agreed at the June board meeting.
External Measure
The vesting of Performance Rights is subject to the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) outperforming
the S&P/ASX300 Energy Index (ASX: XEK) over the vesting period.

IEC’s TSR over the vesting period is ranked against the constituent companies of the S&P/ASX300 Energy Index.
T1 Performance Rights will vest based on the IEC TSR Percentile Ranking achieved in this table. The Peer Group
is established on the Grant Date as all companies within the S&P/ASX300 Energy Index.
Any companies within the Peer Group which are delisted as at the vesting date are removed from the final
analysis.
The Company reserves the right to amend the Peer Group at any time prior to the vesting date.
Internal Measure
The internal measure uses earnings per share (“EPS”) as the indicator.
The annual EPS target is set by the Board and agreed by the Committee after approval of the following year’s
Group budget. The vesting of these Rights is subject to achieving the budgeted earnings per share (“Budget EPS”)
as determined by the Board over the vesting period. That is, the sum of three years’ EPS ending 30 June.
The Budget EPS is determined by the Board and takes into account market expectations, economic and industry
conditions, meeting financial objectives and the past performance of the Company. EPS is as defined under AIFRS
for the relevant period.

do not adversely affect the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and
the nature of the services provided do not compromise the general principles relating to auditor
independence as set out in the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia and APES110 Code of
Ethics for Professional Accountants.
There were no fees for non-audit services paid to an affiliated entity of the external auditors during the year
ended 30 June 2017.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
INTRA ENERGY CORPORATION LIMITED
AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Intra Energy Corporation Limited and its controlled
entities (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as
at 30 June 2017, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive
income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement
of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements,
including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion:
(a)
the accompanying financial report of the Intra Energy Corporation Limited and its
controlled entities 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 2017
and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and
complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations
Regulations 2001
ii.
(b)
the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards
as disclosed in Note 1(b).
Basis of Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those
standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit
engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. Our responsibilities under
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibility section of our report.
We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and
the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (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 Corporation Act 2001,
which has been given to the directors of the company, would be in the same terms if
given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1(a) in the financial report, which indicates that the Group
incurred a net loss of $4,422,000 during the year ended 30 June 2017, and as of that
date the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $11,873,000. As stated
in Note 1(a), these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note
1(a), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the
Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of
this matter.

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most
significance in our audit of the financial report of the year ended 30 June 2017. 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.

Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises
the information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does
not include the financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we
conclude that there is a material misstatement of the 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 Australia Accounting Standards and the
Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as 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 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 Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a
whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian
it exists.
Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when
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.
INTRA ENERGY CORPORATION LIMITED
ABN 65 124 408 751
AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
INTRA ENERGY CORPORATION LIMITED
AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES
As part of an audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise
professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We
also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether
due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks,
and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is
higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of the director’s 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, amongst 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.
INTRA ENERGY CORPORATION LIMITED
ABN 65 124 408 751
AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
INTRA ENERGY CORPORATION LIMITED
AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were
of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are
therefore 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.
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the remuneration report included in pages 14 to 23 of the directors’
report for the year ended 30 June 2017. The directors of the company are responsible for
the preparation and presentation of the remuneration report in accordance with s 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.
Opinion
In our opinion, the remuneration report of Intra Energy Corporation Limited and its
controlled entities for the year ended 30 June 2017 complies with s 300A of the
Corporations Act 2001.

Notes to the Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Intra Energy Corporation Limited (“IEC” or “the Company”) is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled
in Australia. The shares of Intra Energy Corporation Limited are publically traded on the Australian Stock Exchange. The
consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 comprise the Company and its controlled entities
(together referred to as “the Group” or “Consolidated Entity”) and the Group’s interests in associates and jointly
controlled entities. The Company is a for-profit entity and primarily is involved in the mining and sale of coal.
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board and authorised for issue on 4 October 2017.
A. Going Concern
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group
will be able to continue trading, realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business for a
period of at least 12 months from the date that these financial statements are approved.
The Directors note that:
The Group generated a loss after tax for the year of $4.422m (2016: $8.197m) primarily as a result of impairments
and losses from discontinued operations of $0.88m (2016: $5.346m), non-cash depreciation and amortisation
charges of $0.87m (2016: $1.05m) together with operating losses due to difficult market conditions; and
As at balance date, the Group's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $11.87m (2016:$8.748m). The
deficit in net current assets includes a $2.363m (2016: $1.355m) overdraft payable to KCB Bank of Tanzania (“KCB”)
and $0.481m payable to KCB Bank under loan facilities which expire in November 2017 although these facilities
can be called at any time.
In assessing the appropriateness of using the going concern assumption, the Directors have:
Secured funding in August 2017 from KCB of US$936,0000 for the purchase of a new crusher and screening plant
that will improve efficiency and deliver quality sized coal for the market. KCB has shown support for the improved
operating environment now that the Government of Tanzania has banned the import of coal under the directive
advised to the market on 12 August 2016.
Considered the improved market conditions for coal supply and coal sales are expected to increase as the Group
continues to respond to growing demand in the East African cement and industrial markets segment. The ban on
the importation of coal has resulted in increased sales orders and this trend is expected to continue. As Tancoal
continues to implement productivity improvements, the working capital position of the Company is expected to
improve in the longer term.
Continued to implement a number of cost saving initiatives and enter into repayment arrangements with creditors
to preserve working capital.
Retained their confidence in the strategic value of the Group as it develops its coal and power station projects
across East Africa. IEC is the dominant and growing coal miner and supplier to industrial energy users in the Eastern
African region and is advancing coal-fired power generation projects in Tanzania. Eastern Africa is one of the
fastest growing regions in the world with national growth rates between 5% and 8%. In 2017, IEC supplied 86% of
its production to Tanzania, 9% to Kenya and 5% to Rwanda and Uganda. Approximately 79% was supplied to the
cement industry, 6% to textile manufacturers and 9% to paper and ceramics industries and to processing plants.
Continues to seek buyers for the sale of assets in the Malawi business that has a JORC compliant resource of 63
million tonnes and the AAA Drilling joint venture.
Recognised that the interest bearing liabilities relating to the loans from KCB are secured against the Group’s
mining equipment.
Noted JORC compliant resources 367 million tonnes at the Tancoal mine in Tanzania.
After considering the above factors, the Directors have concluded that the use of the going concern assumption is
appropriate. However if improved coal sales, cost saving initiatives or working capital improvements are not achieved
or if KCB Bank of Tanzania demands repayment of their combined $4.018m debt facility ($2.846m at 30 June 2017), the
Group will be required to raise further debt or equity or divest assets to continue as a going concern.
Whilst the Directors remain confident in the Group’s ability to access further working capital through debt, equity or
asset sales if required, there remains material uncertainty as to whether the Group will continue as a going concern.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
Had the going concern basis not been used, adjustments would need to be made relating to the recoverability and
classification of certain assets, and the classification and measurement of certain liabilities to reflect the fact that the
Group may be required to realise its assets and settle its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and
at amounts different from those stated in the consolidated financial statements.
B.
Statement of compliance and 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 and the Corporations Act 2001.
The financial report of Intra Energy Corporation Limited (“IEC” or “the Company”) and controlled entities (“the Group”
or “Consolidated Entity”), and IEC as an individual parent entity (“IEC Parent” or “Parent Entity”) complies with all
Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) and International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS).
b.i Reporting Basis and Conventions
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs other than financial assets
and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Company in the preparation of the
financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
Separate financial statements for IEC Parent, as an individual entity have not been presented within this financial report.
Financial information for IEC Parent as an individual entity is included in Note 31 as permitted by the Corporations Act
2001.
b.ii New Accounting Standards and Interpretations that are not yet mandatory
A number of new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June
2017 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group.
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2017
reporting periods. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.
The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments and associated amending standards, replaces the existing guidance in AASB 139 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. AASB 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement
of financial instruments, including a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and
the new general hedge accounting requirements. It also carries forward the guidance on recognition and derecognition
of financial instruments from AASB 139. AASB 9 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January
2018, with early adoption permitted. As the Group does not have hedging arrangements, this will not have a significant
impact to the Group or its results.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, AASB 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining
whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including AASB
118 Revenue and AASB 111 Construction Contracts. AASB 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or
after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Group does not consider that this will have a significant impact
to the Group or its results.
AASB 16 Leases, AASB 16 replaces the current accounting requirements applicable to leases in AASB 117: Leases and
related Interpretations. AASB 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model that eliminates the requirement for leases
to be classified as operating or finance leases. The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lessee to either
retrospectively apply the standard to comparatives in line with AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect of
retrospective application as an adjustment to opening equity on the date of initial application. Although the directors
anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 will impact the Group's financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to
provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.
AASB 2014 - 10 amends AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and AASB 128 to address an inconsistency between
the requirements in AASB 10 and those in AASB 128 (August 2011), in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets
between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The amendments require: (a) A full gain or loss to be recognised
Page 38
Notes to the Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
b.ii New Accounting Standards and Interpretations that are not yet mandatory (cont’d)
when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not) (b) A partial gain or loss to be
recognised when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a
subsidiary. AASB 2014 - 10 also makes an editorial correction to AASB 10. The amendments are required to be applied
for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The Group does not consider this will have significant
impact to the Group or its results.
There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that are expected to have a material impact on the entity
in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
C. Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate all assets, liabilities and results of the parent (Intra Energy
Corporation Limited) and all of the subsidiaries.
c.i Business combinations
Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.
The purchase method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, unless it is a combination involving
entities or businesses under common control.
Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the
date of exchange. All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations, other than those associated with
the issue of a financial instrument, are recognised as expenses in profit or loss when incurred. Where equity
instruments are issued in an acquisition, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date
of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is
an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of
fair value. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are expensed in the period incurred.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured
initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interest. The excess
of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as
goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the
subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets required.
Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to
their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being
the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and
conditions.
c.ii Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the
consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
The parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the
entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided
in Note 20.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully
eliminated on consolidation.
The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by
the Group.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully
eliminated on consolidation.
The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by
the Group.
Page 39
Notes to the Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
c.ii Transactions eliminated on consolidation
All balances and transactions, arising from transactions between entities within the group are eliminated in preparing
the consolidated financial statements.
c.iii Non-controlling interests
Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non-controlling
interests”. Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets
at the acquisition date. Changes in the Group’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are
accounted for as equity transactions.
c.iv Equity accounted investments
A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Group has joint control whereby the Group has rights to the net assets
of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities. The financial statements include
the Group’s share of the total recognised gains and losses on an equity accounted basis subsequent to initial recognition
at cost, which includes transaction costs.
When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in a joint venture, the Group’s carrying amount is reduced to $nil
and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive
obligations or made payments on behalf of a joint venture.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s
interest in the joint ventures. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an
impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of joint ventures have been changed where necessary to
ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Associates are all entities over which the group has significant influence but not control or joint control, generally
accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted
for using the equity method of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost.
D.
Income tax
Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax and is recognised in the statement of profit or loss or the statement of
comprehensive income according to the accounting treatment of the related transaction.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to
tax in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax expense represents the tax expense in respect of the future tax consequences of recovering or settling the
carrying amount of an asset or liability. Both are calculated using tax rates for each jurisdiction, enacted or substantially
enacted at the reporting date, and for deferred tax those that are expected to apply when the asset is realised or the
liability is settled.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for:
arising on the initial recognition or assets or liabilities, other than on a business combination, that affect neither
accounting or taxable profit;
arising from the recognition of goodwill; and
relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
E. Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually
by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is
assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows which will be received from the assets’ employment and
subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining
recoverable amounts.
e.i Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life to the
consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The useful lives used for each class of depreciable asset are:
Class of fixed asset
Mining Plant and Equipment
Motor Vehicles
Office Equipment
Computer Equipment and Software
Leasehold Improvements
Useful life
10 to 15 years
10 years
8 years
3 years
25 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is
greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses
are included in the profit or loss.
F.
Exploration, evaluation and acquisition expenditure
Acquisition costs are accumulated in respect of each separate area of interest. Acquisition costs are carried forward
where right of tenure of the area of interest is current and they are expected to be recouped through sale or successful
development and exploitation of the area of interest or, where exploration and evaluation activities in the area of
interest have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable
reserves. Where an area of interest is abandoned or the Directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated
acquisition costs in respect of that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made. Each area of interest
is also reviewed at the end of each accounting period and accumulated acquisition costs written off to the extent that
they will not be recoverable in the future. Amortisation is not charged on acquisition costs carried forward in respect
of areas of interest in the development phase until production commences.
G.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on average costs
over the relevant period of production and includes expenditure in accumulating the inventories, production costs and
other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Stockpile tonnages are verified by periodic
surveys.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
H. Overburden removal costs
Overburden and other mine waste materials are often removed during the initial development of a mine site in order
to access the mineral deposit. This activity is referred to as development stripping. The directly attributable costs are
initially capitalised as mine development costs. Capitalising of development stripping costs ceases at the time that
saleable mineral rights begin to be extracted from the mine.
Production stripping commences at the time that saleable materials begin to be extracted from the mine and normally
continues through the life of a mine. The costs of production stripping are capitalised to the cost of inventory, and
charged to the income statement upon sale of inventory in cost of goods sold.
I.
Development expenditure
When a mining project has been established as commercially viable and technically feasible, expenditure other than
that on land, buildings and plant equipment is capitalised under development expenditure. Development expenditure
costs include previously capitalised exploration and evaluation costs, pre-production development costs, development
excavation, development studies and other subsurface expenditure pertaining to that area of interest.
Costs related to surface plant and equipment and any associated land and buildings are accounted for as property, plant
and equipment. Development costs are accumulated in respect of each separate area of interest. Costs associated with
commissioning new assets in the period before they are capable of operating in the manner intended by management,
are capitalised. Development costs incurred after the commencement of production are capitalised to the extent they
are expected to give rise to a future economic benefit. Amortisation of carried forward exploration and development
costs is charged on a unit of production basis over the life of economically recoverable reserves.
When an area of interest is abandoned or the Directors decide it is not commercial or technically feasible, any
accumulated cost in respect of that area is written off in the financial period the decision is made. Each area of interest
is reviewed at the end of each accounting period and accumulated cost written off to the Statement of Comprehensive
Income to the extent that they will not be recoverable in the future.
Development assets are assessed for impairment if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds
the recoverable amount. For the purpose of impairment testing, development assets are allocated to cash generating
units to which the development activity relates. The cash generating unit shall not be larger than the area of interest.
J.
Rehabilitation expenditure
The mining, extraction and processing activities of the Group give rise to obligations for site rehabilitation.
Rehabilitation obligations can include facility decommissioning and dismantling, removal or treatment of waste
materials, land rehabilitation and site restoration. The extent of work required and the associated costs are estimated
based on feasibility and engineering studies using current restoration standards and techniques. Provisions for the cost
of each rehabilitation programme are recognised at the time that environmental disturbance occurs.
Rehabilitation provisions are initially measured at the expected value of future cash flows required to rehabilitate the
relevant site, discounted to their present value. The value of the provision is progressively increased over time as the
effect of discounting unwinds. When provisions for rehabilitation are initially recognised, the corresponding cost is
capitalised as an asset, representing part of the cost of acquiring the future economic benefits of the operation. The
capitalised cost of rehabilitation activities is recognised in ‘Development Expenditure’ as rehabilitation assets and
amortised accordingly.
Where rehabilitation is expected to be conducted systematically over the life of the operation, rather than at the time
of closure, provision is made for the present obligation or estimated outstanding continuous rehabilitation work at each
balance date and the costs are recognised based on a consideration of the period which the rehabilitation is expected
to occur.
K.
Segment Reporting
Segment results are reported to the Board of Directors (chief operating decision maker) and include items directly
attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unless stated otherwise, all
amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to operating segments are
determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in the Annual Financial
Statements of the Company.

L.
Financial Instruments
l.i Recognition
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related
contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out
below.
l.ii 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 stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
l.iii Financial Liabilities
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.
l.iv Impairment of financial assets
A financial asset (or a group of financial assets) is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of
impairment as a result of one or more events (a “loss event”) having occurred, which has an impact on the estimated
future cash flows of the financial asset(s).
In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost, loss events may include: indications that the debtors or a group
of debtors are experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
indications that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; and changes in arrears or economic
conditions that correlate with defaults.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account is used to
reduce the carrying amount of financial assets impaired by credit losses. After having taken all possible measures of
recovery, if Directors establish that the carrying amount cannot be recovered by any means, at that point the written-
off amounts are charged to the allowance account or the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced directly
if no impairment amount was previously recognised in the allowance account.
When the terms of financial assets that would otherwise have been past due or impaired have been renegotiated, the
Group recognises the impairment for such financial assets by taking into account the original terms as if the terms have
not been renegotiated so that the loss events that have occurred are duly considered.
M. Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
m.i. 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. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars
which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.
m.ii. 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 fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of
Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, except where deferred in Other Comprehensive Income as a qualifying
cash flow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are
recognised directly in Other Comprehensive Income to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in other
comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or
Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
Page 43
Notes to the Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
m.iii. Group Companies
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Company’s
presentation currency are translated as follows:
assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; and
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year.
Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s foreign currency
translation reserve in the Statement of Financial Position. These differences are recognised in the Consolidated
Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income in the year in which the operation is disposed.
N. Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to
reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts
expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year
have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.
n.i Short-term employee benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s obligation for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are
benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the
annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave.
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation
is settled.
The Group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as part
of current trade and other payables in the statement of financial position. The Group’s obligations for employees’
annual leave and long service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.
n.ii Share-based payments
The Group provides benefits to employees (including Directors) of the Company in the form of share-based payment
transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (“equity-settled
transactions”). 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 an internal valuation and an external valuation
using the Black-Scholes model.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the year 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. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where
vesting is conditional upon market condition. 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.
O. Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it
is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.
Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the
reporting date.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
P. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within
short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the Statement of Financial Position.
Q. Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of gross consideration received or receivable. IEC recognises revenue when the
amount of revenue can be reliably measured and it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity.
The amount of revenue is not considered to be reliably measured until all contingencies relating to the sale have been
resolved.
IEC recognises revenue when the risks and rewards transfer to the customer which is defined in the customer contract.
R.
Finance income and finance expense
r.i.
Finance income and finance expense
Finance income and expenses are recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial
assets and liabilities is the rate inherent in the instrument.
All finance income and expenses are stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST) and local value added tax
(VAT).
S. Goods and Service Tax (GST) and Value Added Tax (VAT)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of respective GST or VAT, except where the amount
of GST or VAT incurred is not recoverable from the relevant Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST or VAT is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables
in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST or VAT.
Cash flows are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows a gross basis, except for the GST or VAT
component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
T.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which
are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
U.
Leases
u.i. Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease
At inception of an arrangement, the Group determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease.
At inception or on reassessment of an arrangement that contains a lease, the Group separates payments and other
considerations required by the arrangement into those for the lease and those for other elements on the basis of their
relative fair values. If the Group concludes for a finance lease that it is impracticable to separate the payments reliably,
then an asset and a liability are recognised at an amount equal to the fair value of the underlying asset; subsequently,
the liability is reduced as payments are made and an imputed finance cost on the liability is recognised using the Group’s
incremental borrowing rate.
u.ii. Leased assets
Assets held by the Group under lease, that transfer to the Group substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership
are classified as finance leases. The leased assets are measured initially at an amount equal to the lower of fair value
and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the assets are accounted for
in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.
Assets held under other leases are classified as operating leases and are not recognised in the Group’s Consolidated
Statement of Financial Position.
Page 45
Notes to the Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
1.
STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
u.iii. Leased payments
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the
lease. Lease incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease.
Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction
of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a
constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
V. Earnings per share
v.i. Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding
any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
v.ii. Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjust the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares.
W. Assets held for sale
Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale and measured at the lower of carrying amount
and fair value less costs to sell, where the carrying amount will be recovered principally through sale as opposed to
continued use. No depreciation or amortisation is charged against assets classified as held for sale.
Classification as “held for sale” occurs when: management has committed to a plan for immediate sale; the sale is
expected to occur within one year from the date of classification; and active marketing of the asset has commenced.
Such assets are classified as current assets.
A discontinued operation is a component of an entity, being a cash-generating unit (or a group of cash generating units),
that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and: represents a separate major line of business or
geographical area of operations; is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or
geographical area of operations; or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with the view to resale.
Impairment losses are recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of an asset (or disposal group) classified as
held for sale to fair value less costs to sell. Any reversal of impairment recognised on classification as held for sale or
prior to such classification is recognised as a gain in Consolidated Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income in
the period in which it occurs.
X.
Impairment of non-financial assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether
there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the
asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying
value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the Consolidated Statement
of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Where it is not possible
to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-
generating unit to which the asset belongs.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
Y. Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 1, management is required to make
judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors
that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the
judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or, in the period of the
revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the
reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities within the next financial year:
Recoverability of exploration and evaluation expenditure
The recoverability of the capitalised acquisition expenditure recognised as a non-current asset is dependent
upon the successful development, or alternatively sale, of the respective tenements which comprise the
asets.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on
average costs over the relevant period of production and includes expenditure in accumulating the inventories,
production costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Stockpile
tonnages are verified by periodic surveys.
Rehabilitation
The extent of work required and the associated costs are estimated based on feasibility and engineering studies
using current restoration standards and techniques. Provisions for the cost of each rehabilitation programme
are recognised at the time that environmental disturbance occurs.
Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events
specific to the Group that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets
are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions. In light of lengthy
negotiations with the Malawi government and ongoing logistical issues with the operation of the mine, the
Group recognised an impairment charge of $1,747,000 in the year ended 30 June 2016 on the carrying value
of its Malawian subsidiaries.

10. DISPOSAL GROUP HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On 1 March 2016 the Group advised that transaction documents had been exchanged for the sale of its Malawian
subsidiaries and that further announcements would be made when the sale is finalised. Accordingly the Malawi Group
is presented as a disposal group held for sale. The sale of the disposal group is expected to be completed in the next
financial year. The carrying value of the assets has been fully impaired in light of lengthy negotiations with the Malawi
government and ongoing logistical issues with the operation of the mine.
As at 30 June 2017, the disposal group was stated at lower of carrying value and fair value and comprised the following
assets and liabilities:
Assets and Liabilities held for sale
Current Assets
Property, plant and equipment
Mine development and exploration expenditure
Inventories

^On 28 August 2013, IEC’s subsidiary Malcoal Mining Limited entered into a hire purchase arrangement to finance
mining equipment at the Malcoal Mine in Malawi. The agreement term is 5 years with an option to purchase the
equipment at the conclusion of the term. On 31 March 2016, the arrangement was terminated and the assets returned
to the supplier. A contingent liability has been recognised for a legal claim that the supplier has brought to the company,
see note 23.
The Malawian subsidiaries incurred minimal revenue and recorded a loss after tax of $403,000 for the year ended 30
June 2017, and a reversal of the prior year impairment of $282,000.
11. EQUITY ACCOUNTED INVESTMENTS
On 9 September 2014, the Group completed a joint venture arrangement with General Petroleum Oils and Tools Pty
Limited (“GPOT”), whereby each party undertook a 50% economic interest in AAA Drilling Limited, an operating drilling
company in Tanzania that was established to undertake drilling and logging for the IEC entities and third party customers
in Eastern Africa.
In 2016, the Group recognised an impairment charge of $558,000 following a review of the market conditions that have
effect to the AAA Drilling Joint Venture business and operations.

The recoverable amounts of the Group’s mine development costs and property, plant and equipment have been
determined by a value-in-use calculations using a discounted cash flow model, based on a 12-month projection period
approved by the Board and extrapolated for a further 4 years by using key assumption.
The key assumptions in the calculations include:
Long-term thermal coal prices of US$44 – US$48 per tonne
Long-term exchange rate of US$1:00: AUD$0.75
Discount rate of 20%
Revenue and cost growth rate of 7%
Coal reserves and resources
Based on the above assumptions at 30 June 2017 the recoverable amount is determined to be above carrying value of
mining assets resulting in no further impairment.
The most sensitive input in the value in use calculations is forecast revenue, which is primarily dependent on estimated
future coal prices and the AUD/USD forecast exchange rate. If the long-term coal prices had been 10% lower than
management’s estimates, the recoverable amount would exceed carrying value of mining assets. If the AUD/USD long-
term exchange rate was $0.80, the recoverable amount would exceed carrying value of mining assets.

commercial exploitation or sale of the respective mining permits.
On 15 March 2017, the Company advised the market that a Tancoal tenement was directed by the government to be
transferred to Dangote Industries. An impairment charge of $239,000 was recognised for the carrying value of the
licence in the financial year.

16(e) Convertible Note
On 2 May 2016, IEC raised A$125,000 under loan and convertible note agreements with three parties, two of whom are
related to directors of the company, Mr Robertson and Mr Mason. The notes were converted to shares on the 11 and
12 April 2017. Interest of A$28,500 has been accrued.
16(f) Hire purchase
On 28 August 2013, IEC’s subsidiary Malcoal Mining Limited entered into a hire purchase arrangement to finance mining

the conclusion of the term. At 31 March 2016, the arrangement was terminated, the assets were returned to the
supplier and the hire purchase arrangement ceased. A contingent liability has been recognised for a legal claim that the
supplier has brought against the Company for penalties and other costs, see note 23.
In January 2014, a hire purchase contract with an option to purchase four trucks was entered into with Extran Limited,
a related party of Graeme Robertson and David Mason. The full amount under the contract of $280,000 was outstanding
at 30 June 2017.

The mining, extraction and processing activities of the Group give rise to obligations for site rehabilitation. Rehabilitation
obligations can include facility decommissioning and dismantling, removal or treatment of waste materials, land
rehabilitation and site restoration. The extent of work required and the associated costs are estimated based on
feasibility and engineering studies using current restoration standards and techniques. Provisions for the cost of each
rehabilitation programme are recognised at the time that environmental disturbance occurs.

24. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Group operates in two geographical segments being Australia and Africa.
Segment information
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board
of Directors (chief operating decision maker) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The
Group’s business is the exploration, evaluation, marketing, production and sale of coal in Africa.
Basis of Accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to
operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in
the annual Financial Statements of the Group.
Inter-segment loans payable and receivable are initially recognised at the consideration received net of transaction
costs. If inter-segment loans receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not adjusted to fair value
based on market interest rates.

Notes to the Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
24. SEGMENT REPORTING (CONT)
Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of
economic value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their
nature and physical location. Unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, investments in financial assets,
deferred tax assets and intangible assets have not been allocated to operating segments.
Segment liabilities
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the
operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and
are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables.
Notes to and forming part of the segment information
The consolidation adjustments represent the elimination of inter-segment loan balances and transactions.
Accounting policies
Segment information is prepared in conformity with the accounting policies of the entity as per Accounting Standard
AASB 8 Operating Segments.

A sensitivity of 10% has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both short
term and long term interest rates. A 10% movement in interest rates at the reporting date would have
increased (decreased) equity and profit and loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all
other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant.

As a result of activities overseas, the Group’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position can be affected by
movements in exchange rates.
The Group also has transactional currency exposures. Such exposure arises from transactions dominated in
currencies other than the functional currency of the entity.
The Group currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage foreign currency risk.
The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk throughout the current year primarily arose from the Group’s
100% interest in Intra Energy (Tanzania) Limited and its controlling interests in Tancoal and Tanzacoal (collectively
“Tanzanian subsidiaries”), whose functional currencies are Tanzanian Shillings. Additionally the Group has
exposure to foreign currency risk through the Group’s 90% interest in Malcoal Mining Limited and 100% interest
in Intra Energy Trading Malawi Limited (collectively “Malawian subsidiaries”), whose functional currencies are
Malawian Kwacha. Foreign currency risk arises on translation of the net assets of these entities to Australian
dollars. The foreign currency gains or losses arising from this risk are recorded through the foreign currency
translation reserve.
The Group is additionally exposed to the USD by way of its USD denominated loans to the KCB Bank Tanzania
Limited. The foreign currency gains or losses arising from this risk are recorded in the Statement of Profit or Loss
and Other Comprehensive Income.

30. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D)
Sensitivity Analysis for Foreign Currency risk
A sensitivity of 10% has been selected as this is considered reasonable given historic and potential future changes
in foreign currency rates. This has been applied to the net assets of the Group. This sensitivity analysis is prepared
at reporting date.
A 10% strengthening of the Australian dollar against the Tanzanian Shilling and Malawian Kwacha at 30 June
2017 would have decreased the net liabilities of the Tanzanian and Malawian subsidiaries by A$1.2m (2016:
$3.1m). A 10% weakening of the Australian dollar against the Tanzanian Shilling and Malawian Kwacha at 30 June
2017 would have increased the net liabilities of the Tanzanian and Malawian subsidiaries by A$1.5m (2016:
$3.8m).
There would be no impact on profit or loss arising from these changes in the currency risk variables as all changes
in value are taken to a reserve.
A 10% strengthening of the Australian dollar against the United States dollar at 30 June 2017 would have
decreased net interest bearing liabilities of the KCB loans and hire purchases by A$0.3m (2016: $0.2m). A 10%
weakening of the Australian dollar against the United States dollar at 30 June 2017 would have increased net
interest bearing liabilities of the KCB loans and hire purchases by A$0.3m (2016: $0.2m).
The impact on profit or loss arising from changes in this currency risk variables would be taken to the Statement
of Comprehensive Income.
The above analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates and equity prices, remain
constant.
30(d) Fair value versus carrying amounts
The Group’s carrying mounts of fair value assets and liabilities equate to their corresponding fair values.
30(e) Capital management
The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence.
There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year. Neither the Group nor
any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
