CHAIRMAN’S LETTER 

Dear Shareholder, 

I am pleased to present the 2018 Annual Report for Jupiter Energy Limited (“Jupiter Energy” or “the Group”). 

The past year has seen some significant progress for our Kazakh operations with a return to oil production, beginning 
with well J-51 going back into production from late September 2017. 

The beginning of the 2017/18 year saw the approval of a 3 year extension to Jupiter’s Exploration Licence held over 
Block 31 and this licence now runs through to 29 December 2019. The Company also obtained approval of Trial 
Production Licences for its Akkar East and West Zhetybai wells. Another major milestone was reached when the Group 
was also able to get a positive resolution to the reserves dispute involving its Akkar North (East Block) territory. 

Production  for  the  period  from  late  September  2017  to  30  June  2018  reached  approximately  90,000  barrels  and 
revenues totaled almost $A3,000,000. With the J-58 well coming onto production in early September 2018 and the 
drilling of the J-57 well schedule to take place during 4th Quarter 2018, production levels and associated revenues 
should continue to increase and I hope the Company can soon reach the levels of 2014 when our revenues were 
almost $A9,000,000 on production of 230,000 barrels. 

The Board remains confident in the prospectivity of the Block 31 licence area and furthermore that the two new oilfields 
that have already been discovered on our permit area can be commercially developed into significant producers.  

I therefore look towards 2019 with renewed confidence and may I take this opportunity to thank all our employees and 
shareholders for their continued support over the past twelve months and encourage shareholders to attend the Annual 
General Meeting to be held in Perth on 12 November 2018. 

Sincerely 

Geoff Gander

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

FINANCIAL REVIEW 

Operating Results 

The consolidated loss for the year after income tax was $10,023,725 (2017: $8,076,857). 

Review of Financial Condition 

At the end of the 2018 financial year, cash resources were $408,241 (2017: $397,109). These accounts have been 
prepared on a going concern basis, predicated on the Group’s ability to raise additional cash in order to finance its 
proposed  work  program  and  general  and  administrative  costs  for  the  next  12  months.  The  Board  is  currently 
progressing a number of financing options including an equity raising and/or the issue of debt finance.  

Assets increased to $50,182,659 (2017: $49,200,046) and equity decreased to $(14,348,305) (2017: $3,584,203).  

Funding and Capital Management: 

As at 30 June 2018, the Group had 153,377,693 listed shares trading under the ASX ticker "JPR", and the KASE 
ticker “AU_JPRL”. On 29 August 2017, the Company delisted from London’s Alternative Investment Market (AIM). 

On July 28 2017, the Group was granted a range of approvals that positioned it to return to domestic production. 
As  a  result,  major  shareholder  and  debtholder  Waterford  Petroleum  Limited  (“Waterford”)  and  debt  holder 
Midocean  Holdings  Limited  (“Midocean”)  (together  “the  Lenders”)  agreed  to  provide  up  to  a  total  of  a  further 
US$5,000,000 (including accrued interest), in the amounts of up to US$4,900,000 and US$100,000, respectively 
under a new Funding Agreement signed on 28 July 2017 (the “2017 Funding Agreement”). 

The  2017  Funding  Agreement  saw  the  addition  of  one  new  condition  when  compared  to  earlier  funding 
agreements. This condition related to the payment of a bonus to the Lenders should all or part of the permit area 
be sold during the term of the 2017 Funding Agreement. 

A summary of the terms of the 2017 Funding Agreement is as follows: 

  Unsecured 
  Effective 31 July 2017 
  Repayable on 31 July 2019 (or such later date agreed by the parties in writing) (the “Repayment 

Date”) 
Interest rate of 15% pa 
Interest will accrue and be repayable with principal 

 
 
  Lenders can elect to be repaid if there is a change of control in Jupiter Energy Limited or Jupiter 
Energy Pte Ltd or there is a change in control in contract 2275 covering the Block 31 Licence 
  Bonus will be payable to the Lenders equivalent to 5% of the sale price of contract 2275 in the event 
that the contract is assigned, transferred or sold to a 3rd party during the period of the facility  

The bonus would equate to 5% of the value of the consideration received by the Company if Jupiter or Contract 
2275 is assigned, transferred or sold to a third party prior to the Repayment Date and will be payable in cash, 
shares or a combination of both, at the absolute discretion of the Lenders subject to all relevant Australian and 
Kazakh regulatory bodies (if required), including pursuant to the ASX Listing Rules, KASE Listing Rules and the 
Corporations Act.

JUPITER ENERGY LIMITED – 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

The bonus amount payable to each of the Lenders will be calculated on the basis of the proportion of debt funding 
provided by each as measured against the total funding provided under the 2017 Funding Agreement. 

The 2017 Funding Agreement was established to fund the Group’s operations whilst it continues to finalise long 
term funding arrangements for the development of its Block 31 licence area in Kazakhstan.  

In terms of drawdowns, the Group still requests monthly drawdowns against the maximum US$5,000,000 amount 
and the drawdowns are based on an agreed Operations budget, with the budget reflecting revenues and expenses 
associated with the return to domestic production that took place during the 4th quarter of calendar 2017.  

The Group is still reviewing its ongoing funding requirements to enable it to complete its approved 2017-2019 Work 
Program and develop Block 31 to the stage where export oil sales are being achieved and further development of 
the field is self-funding. In addition, the Group may look to take on additional exploration acreage. Funding options 
may include the further issue of new equity, reserve based debt, convertible debt or a combination of these and 
other funding instruments. 

Once the appropriate funding has been secured, the further development of both the Akkar East and West Zhetybai 
fields, and in particular the possibility of building the topside infrastructure on Akkar East including a processing 
facility and gas separation plant, will be accelerated.  

The Company continues to maintain its listing on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) and shareholders that have 
wished to trade the Company’s Ordinary Shares after the Cancellation Date have been able to do so on the ASX.  

OPERATING REVIEW 

The financial year saw a return to oil production from the Akkar East oilfield during the 4th Quarter (28 September 
2017) with production initially coming from the J-51 well, followed by the J-52 well in late October 2017 and well 
19 beginning production in February 2018.  

Production Report/Status of Well Licences: 

Production – Akkar East (J-51, J-52, J-53 and Well 19): 

During the financial year, oil was produced from the Akkar East J-51, J-52 and 19 wells under their respective Trial 
Production Licences (TPL’s). These three wells are all located on the northern section of the permit and are part 
of the Akkar East oilfield. 

The J-53 well, which is also located on the Akkar East oilfield, was shut in for the entire financial year, awaiting 
further  remedial  work  before  potentially  coming  back  onto  production.  This  work  will  be  carried  out  when  the 
appropriate funding and approvals are in place.  

A summary of the oil produced from the three Akkar East wells during the financial year, broken down by quarter, 
is as follows:

Production – Akkar North [East Block] (J-50 well): 

The Group advised shareholders on 28 November 2014 that the application to extend the TPL for well J-50 located 
on the Akkar North (East Block) was being held by the Kazakh Committee of Geology pending resolution of the 
allocation of reserves associated with the well. 

The J-50 well has since been shut in since 29 December 2014 (the date at which the last Trial Production licence 
expired).  

The underlying issue delaying the TPL renewal was the demand by the Committee of Geology that Jupiter Energy 
reach agreement with its neighbour MangistauMunaiGas (MMG) over the division of reserves associated with both 
companies’ share of the Akkar North accumulation. Jupiter Energy was in dialogue with MMG on this issue for 
some time but was unable to reach formal agreement with MMG with respect to the division of Akkar North reserves 
or another form of commercial settlement of the matter.  

After ongoing discussions, the Group announced on 28 April 2017 that it had been successful with its ownership 
claim over these reserves and with this having been achieved the requisite applications for a Trial Production 
Licence for the J-50 well have now been submitted for approval by the relevant Kazakh authorities. 

The Company expects to recommence production from the J-50 during the 2018/19 Financial Year. 

Status of West Zhetybai Wells (J-55, 58, 59): 

J-58 and J-59 both had their respective 2017-2019 TPL’s approved during 2017.  

On 1 September 2018, the J-58 well was put on production. The forward plan is for the J-59 well to be used to test 
the potential of the shallow Jurassic horizon discovered during the drilling of the well, before being completed for 
production from the T2B horizon. This work on the J-59 well is scheduled to occur before the end of calendar year 
2018. 

Further remedial work will need to be carried out on the J-55 well to determine if commercial production can be 
established from this well and this work will require the requisite funding and separate approvals from the relevant 
Kazakh authorities. 

Drilling Report: 

Workovers were carried out on the J-51, J-52 and 19 wells in order to return these wells to production.

JUPITER ENERGY LIMITED – 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

No drilling activity took place during the year. The next well (J-57) is expected to spud in early October 2018. This 
well is expected to be the final well drilled on the Akkar East oilfield before the Company is able to finalise its Final  

Reserves Report for Akkar East. This is a critical step in being able to move the oilfield from domestic oil production 
under its Exploration Licence to export oil production under its Commercial Licence. 

Oil Production and Revenues: 

There  were  approximately  90,000  barrels  of  oil  produced  during  the  year  for  revenues  of  $2,922,167 
($US2,264,950). There was no oil produced in the previous reporting period. All oil produced during the year was 
sold into the domestic market (as per the terms of the Block 31 Exploration Period Licence) to a local trader. Oil 
was paid for on a prepayment basis and oil collected by the trader from the well head. 

AIM Listing 

The Company was originally dual listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange in 2011 as a means of 
accessing capital from the UK and European equity markets. During 2017, the Board reviewed the Company’s 
AIM listing and concluded that the benefits of listing have not been realised, due to a range of reasons. Given the 
Company's shareholder base is predominantly Australian, the relatively low volume of trading in shares on AIM 
and the Company’s cash position, the Board concluded that the costs incurred in maintaining a secondary listing 
on  AIM,  exceeded  the  benefits  obtained  from  the  listing.  On  this  basis,  the  Board  sought  a  cancellation of  its 
depository interests (“DIs”) over ordinary shares (“Ordinary Shares”) from trading on AIM (the “Cancellation”).  

The Cancellation was not subject to shareholder approval however the Board discussed this issue with Jupiter’s 
three  major  shareholders  being  Waterford  Petroleum  Limited,  Arrow  Business  Limited  and  Central  Asian  Oil 
Holdings Limited and each entity gave their unequivocal support in respect of the Cancellation. The last trading 
day in DIs on AIM was be 25 August 2017 and Cancellation was effective from 29 August 2017 (the “Cancellation 
Date”). Following the cancellation of admission of the Company's Ordinary Shares on AIM, the DIs which had been 
trading on AIM were cancelled and holding statements were issued to the then current DI holders.   
The Company continues to maintain its listing on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) and shareholders that have 
wished to trade the Company’s Ordinary Shares after the Cancellation Date have been able to do so on the ASX. 

Corporate Hiring: 

As a result of a return to domestic oil production, the Group restaffed its Aktau operations and full time employees 
increased  from  10  people  to  30  people  during  the  year.  A  number  of  these  new  positions  were  filled  by  past 
employees.  

Board Additions and Changes: 

On 12 September 2017 the Company announced the appointment of Alexander Kuzev to the Board. 

Alexander Kuzev (52) is an oil industry professional with over 26 years of experience. 

Alexander has brought an important technical skill set to the Jupiter Energy Board as well as in country experience, 
having been involved with various Kazakhstan based oil and gas operations since the late 1990’s.

On 5 April 2018 the Company announced the resignation of Scott Mison as a Director, Chief Financial Officer 
(CFO) and Company Secretary – effective from 20 April 2018. 

On 19 April 2018 the Company announced the appointment of Phil Warren (44) as a Non Executive Director.  

The  Company  also  announced  the  appointment  of  Edward  Meagher  as  CFO  and  Emma  Wates  as  Company

Annual General Meetings:  

The 2017 AGM was held in Perth on 10 November 2017 and all Resolutions were passed. The 2018 AGM will be 
held in Perth on 12 November 2018 and shareholders are encouraged to attend. A Notice of Meeting outlining 
business to be covered at the 2018 AGM will be mailed to shareholders in early October 2018. 

Directors Renumeration: 

Directors have deferred their Directors’ Fees since February 2015 and continue to do so until such time that the 
Group has an improved cashflow position. 

Summary: 

The  2017/18  Financial  Year  saw  the  Group  make  measured  progress  towards  being  able  to  return  to  full 
operations. At the beginning of the year, the Company was granted a three year extension of its Exploration Licence 
(to  December  2019),  gained  approval  to  return  its  wells  on  the  Akkar  East  and  West  Zhetybai  fields  to  Trial 
Production. During the year the Company also got confirmation from the Kazakh authorities that it was the legal 
owner of the oil reserves that form part of the Akkar North (East Block) accumulation. 

Domestic oil production recommenced late in 2017 and the Company was able to produce from the J-51, J-52 and 
19  wells  (all  located  on  Akkar  East)  for  the  second  half  of  the  Financial  Year,  with  production  reaching 
approximately 90,000 barrels for the year on revenues of $2,922,167 ($US2,264,950). 

Major shareholder (Waterford Petroleum Limited) continues to be the cornerstone debt funder for the Company 
with a further US$4,900,000 in debt funding provided to the Company in July 2018 with these monies funding 
operations and enabling a return to domestic oil production. 

Revenue from oil sales are now able to fund the Kazakh operation and the funding available through the 2017 
Funding Agreement, signed in July 2017, should be able to support the corporate operations for the foreseeable 
future. 

Frustrations aside, since acquiring the exploration permit in 2008, independent reserve reports and evaluations 
continue to confirm that Jupiter has now discovered two sizeable oilfields with significant reserves and resources. 
In addition, oil production has moved from zero at the beginning of 2011 to over 230,000 barrels for calendar year 
2014, with 2014 calendar year revenues reaching A$8,750,000 (US$7,568,000). It is hoped that with the return of 
the J-58 well to production during October 2018 and the drilling of the J-57 well during the 4th quarter of 2018, 
these past production and revenue levels will again be achieved in the coming 10 months.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

The goal of developing Jupiter Energy into a full cycle E&P Group with a meaningful production profile and sizeable 
2P reserves base remains the key objective for the Board and Management and the Group remains confident of 
continuing to make progress towards achieving this goal during the period 2018-2019.  

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS 

Except as otherwise set out in this report, the Directors are unaware of any significant changes in the state of 
affairs or principal activities of the consolidated entity that occurred during the financial year. 

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 

There are no material after balance dates events to report as at the date of this report. 

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS 

The  Directors  will  continue  to  pursue  oil  and  gas  exploration  and  production  opportunities  in  the  Republic  of 
Kazakhstan. 

As Jupiter Energy Limited is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and the Kazakh Stock Exchange (KASE), it 
is subject to the continuous disclosure requirements of the ASX Listing Rules and the KASE Rules for Companies 
which require immediate disclosure to the market of information that is likely to have a material effect on the price 
or value of Jupiter Energy Limited’s securities.    

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION 

The consolidated entity is committed to achieving the highest standards of environmental performance. Standards 
set by the Government of Kazakhstan are comprehensive and highly regulated. The consolidated entity strives to 
comply not only with all Kazakh government regulations, but also maintain worldwide industry standards.  

To  maintain  these  high  standards  the  Group  is  committed  to  a  locally  developed  environmental  monitoring 
program. This monitoring program will continue to expand as and when new regulations are implemented and 
adopted in Kazakhstan. 

HEALTH & SAFETY 

The Group has developed a comprehensive Health and Safety policy for its operations in Kazakhstan and has the 
appropriate personnel in place to monitor the performance of the Group with compliance under this policy. The 
Group outsources many of its key drilling functions and as part of any contract entered into with third parties, a 
commitment to Health & Safety and a demonstrated track record of success in this area is a key performance 
indicator in terms of deciding on which companies will be contracted. 

MEETINGS OF DIRECTORS 

The  number  of  meetings  of  the  Directors held  during  the year  and  the  number of  meetings attended  by  each 
Director was as follows:

Remuneration Philosophy 

The  remuneration  policy  of  the  Group  has  been  designed  to  align  Directors  and  executives  interests  with  the 
shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering long term incentives 
based on a key performance area – with a focus to the material improvement in share price performance. The Board 
of the Group believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate to attract and retain the best executives and Directors 
to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence between Directors, executives and shareholders. 

The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and senior executives 
of the Group is as follows: 

  The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, 
was developed by the Board after a review of similar listed and unlisted companies with activities in overseas 
jurisdictions and taking into account the experience and skill set required to successfully develop operations in 
these jurisdictions from early stage development. The Group does not have a remuneration committee. The Board 
is of the opinion that due to the size of the Group, the functions performed by a Remuneration Committee can be 
adequately handled by the full Board. 

  All  executives  receive  a  base  salary  (which  is  based  on  factors  such  as  length  of  service  and  experience), 

superannuation, fringe benefits and performance incentives. 

  The Board reviews executive packages annually by reference to the Group's performance, executive performance 

and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued) 

The executive Directors receive  a superannuation guarantee contribution as required by the  government which is 
currently 9.5%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. This contribution forms part of their total remuneration 
package. 

The remuneration paid to Directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Group and expensed.  

REMUNERATION STRUCTURE 

Non-Executive Director Remuneration 

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

Structure 
The  Board  policy  is  to  remunerate  non-executive  directors  at  market  rates  for  comparable  companies  for  time, 
commitment and responsibilities. The Board 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 required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive Directors is subject to 
approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Total remuneration for all non-executive Directors, is not to 
exceed $350,000 per annum as approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 15 November 2010. 
Fees  for  non-executive  Directors  are  not  linked  to  performance  of  the  Group.  Non-executive  Directors  are  also 
encouraged to hold shares in the company. 

Directors who are called upon to perform extra services beyond the director’s ordinary duties may be paid additional 
fees for those services. 

Executive Remuneration 

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

reward executives for Group, business unit and individual performance; 

 
  align the interests of executives with those of shareholders; 
 
  ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards. 

link reward with the strategic goals and performance of the Group; and

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited) (continued) 

Structure 
In determining the level and make-up of executive remuneration, the Board reviews remuneration packages provided 
by similar listed and unlisted companies with activities in overseas jurisdictions and taking into account the experience 
and skill set required to successfully develop operations in these jurisdictions from early stage development as well 
as the salary levels of local workers in that jurisdiction. It is the Board’s policy that employment contracts are entered 
into with the Chief Executive Officer and all key management personnel. 

Fixed Remuneration 

The fixed remuneration of executives is comprised of a base salary and superannuation. The fixed remuneration of 
executives is reviewed annually. 

Variable remuneration – Short Term Incentives (STI) 

The Group operates a STI program for its Kazakh based employees, which is based on a cash bonus subject to the 
attainment of clearly defined Branch and individual measures.  

Actual STI payments awarded to each employee depends on the extent to which specific targets are met. The targets 
consist of a number of key performance indicators (KPIs) covering financial and non-financial Branch and individual 
measures of performance. 

Directors are not eligible for participation in the STI program. 

Variable Remuneration – Long Term Incentives (LTI) 

Objective 
The objectives of long term incentives are to: 

  align executives remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth; 
 

recognise  the  ability  and  efforts  of  the  Directors,  employees  and  consultants  of  the  Group  who  have 
contributed to the success of the Group and to provide them with rewards where deemed appropriate; 
  provide an incentive to the Directors, employees and consultants to achieve the long term objectives of the 

Group and improve the performance of the Group; and 

  attract  persons  of  experience  and  ability  to  employment  with  the  Group  and  foster  and  promote  loyalty 

between the Group and its Directors, employees and consultants. 

Structure 
Long term incentives granted to Directors and senior executives are delivered either in the form of a defined bonus or 
via the issue of Performance Rights, issued under the Performance Rights Plan. There were no performance rights 
issued during the current financial year or prior financial year. There is a bonus that forms part of the CEO package 
which is linked to the sale of the permit area.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018 

1 

CORPORATE INFORMATION 

The financial report of Jupiter Energy Limited for the year ended 30 June 2018 was authorised for issue in accordance 
with a resolution of the directors on 28 September 2018.  

Jupiter Energy Limited is a Company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the 
Australian Stock Exchange and on the Kazakh Stock Exchange. Jupiter Energy Limited is a for profit entity. 

The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors Report on pages 2 to 12 
of this report. 

2 

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

(a)  Basis of Preparation 

The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements 
of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian 
Accounting Standards Board. The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain 
financial instruments measured at fair value.  The financial report is presented in Australian dollars. 

The amounts contained within this report have been rounded to nearest $1 (where rounding is applicable) under the option 
available to the Company under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Report) Instrument 2016/191. 

Going Concern 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis with the Directors of the opinion that 
the Group can meet its obligations as and when they fall due. 

As at 30 June 2018 The Group had a net liability position of $14,348,305. However, as at 30 June 2018, the Group had 
available  $US  4,161,746  ($A  5,629,475)  under  its  two  existing  framework  funding  agreements  (refer  to  note  17  for 
additional detail).   

Based on management forecasts, the Group has sufficient working capital, including its access to the funding noted above, 
to maintain operations for a period of 12 months following the date of these financial statements. This is though dependent 
on the Group being able to achieve oil production targets from both existing wells and new wells expecting to commence 
trial production during the forecast period.  However, for the Group to carry out its 2018-2019 Work Program and develop 
Block 31 (which includes a requirement to drill two new wells) to the stage where export oil sales are being achieved and 
further development of the field is self-funding, the group will need to secure additional funding. Further, as disclosed in 
note 17, the 2017 funding agreement is repayable on 31 July 2019 or such later date agreed by the parties in writing. 
Based on current forecasts, the Group will require additional funding or an extension of this repayment date if it is to meet 
its obligations under the agreement.  

Funding options may include the further issue of new equity, reserve based debt, convertible debt or a combination of 
these and other funding instruments.  

The Directors, after consultation with the major shareholders and debt providers, are confident of being able to raise the 
required capital and extend repayment terms as required, but note that financing and extension has not been secured at 
the date of this report. Should the Group not achieve the matters set out above, there is uncertainty whether the Group 
would continue as a going concern and therefore whether it would realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the 
normal  course  of  business  and  at  the  amounts  stated  in  the  financial  report.  The  financial  report  does  not  include 
adjustments  relating  to  the  recoverability  or  classification  of  the  recorded  assets  amounts  nor  to  the  amounts  or 
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(b)  Statement of compliance 

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

The new standards and amendments to standards that are mandatory for the first time in the financial year commenced 
on 1 July 2017 do not affect any amounts recognised in the current or prior years, and are not likely to materially affect 
amounts  in  future  years.  The  Group  has  not  elected  to  apply  any  pronouncements  before  their  operative  date  in  the 
financial year ended 30 June 2018. 

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective 
have not been adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2018. These are as follows: 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 

This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard replaces all 
previous  versions  of  AASB  9  and  completes  the  project  to  replace  IAS  39  'Financial  Instruments:  Recognition  and 
Measurement'. AASB 9 introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets. A financial asset shall 
be measured at amortised cost, if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect 
contractual cash flows, which arise on specified dates and solely principal and interest. All other financial instrument assets 
are to be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss unless the Group makes an irrevocable election on 
initial recognition to present gains and losses on equity instruments (that are not held-for-trading) in other comprehensive 
income ('OCI'). For financial liabilities, the standard requires the portion of the change in fair value that relates to the 
Group's  own credit  risk  to  be  presented  in  OCI  (unless  it would create  an  accounting mismatch).  New  simpler hedge 
accounting requirements are intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with the risk management activities 
of the Group. New impairment requirements will use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognise an allowance. 
Impairment will be measured under a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased 
significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. The standard introduces additional 
new disclosures. The Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018.  

Whilst the Group continues to complete its assessment of AASB 9, it does not expect the new changes to have any material 
impact on its recognition or measurement of financial assets or liabilities.  

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 

This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard provides a 
single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that a Group will recognise revenue to depict 
the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group 
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either written, verbal 
or  implied)  to  be  identified,  together  with  the  separate  performance  obligations  within  the  contract;  determine  the 
transaction  price,  adjusted  for  the  time  value  of  money  excluding credit  risk;  allocation  of  the  transaction  price  to  the 
separate  performance  obligations  on  a  basis  of  relative  stand-alone  selling  price  of  each  distinct  good  or  service,  or 
estimation approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue when each performance obligation 
is  satisfied.  Credit  risk  will  be  presented  separately  as  an  expense  rather  than  adjusted  to  revenue.  For  goods,  the 
performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. For services, the performance 
obligation is satisfied when the service has been provided, typically for promises to transfer services to customers. For 
performance obligations satisfied over time, a Company would select an appropriate measure of progress to determine 
how much revenue should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(b)  Statement of compliance (continued) 

The Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018 and is continuing to assess the impact of its adoption. As the Group 
is not responsible for transport of oil sold (i.e. sales occur at the wellhead), it is not likely that the new standard will result 
in  additional  performance  obligations  being  identified  and  therefore  altering  the  revenue  recognition.  As  a  result,  it  is 
expected that there will be no change to the recognition of sales revenue as a consequence of adopting this standard. 

AASB 16 Leases 

This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces AASB 
117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to exceptions, 
a  'right-of-use'  asset  will  be  capitalised  in  the  statement  of  financial  position,  measured  as  the  present  value  of  the 
unavoidable future lease  payments to be made over the lease term. The exceptions  relate to short-term leases of 12 
months or less and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers and small office furniture) where an accounting 
policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit or loss as 
incurred. A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease 
incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal or dismantling costs. 
Straight-line operating lease expense recognition will be replaced with a depreciation charge for the leased asset (included 
in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease liability (included in finance costs). In the earlier 
periods of the lease, the  expenses associated with the lease under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease 
expenses under AASB 117. However EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results will 
be improved as the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss under AASB 16. 
For classification within the statement of cash flows, the lease payments will be separated into both a principal (financing 
activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, the standard does not 
substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases. The Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2019. As the Group 
does not have any material lease agreements in place, it is not expected that this standard will have any impact. 

(c)  Basis of consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Jupiter Energy Limited and its subsidiaries (as 
outlined in Note 27).  Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement 
with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.  Specifically, the Group 
controls an investee if and only if the Group has: 

▪  Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the 

investee); 

▪  Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and 

▪  The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns. 

When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant 
facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including: 

▪  The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee; 

▪  Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and 

▪  The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights. 

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

date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. 

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent 
of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. 

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into 
line with the Group’s accounting policies.  All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows 
relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated on consolidation. 

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If 
the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it: 

▪  De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary; 

▪  De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests; 

▪  De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity; 

▪  Recognises the fair value of the consideration received; 

▪  Recognises the fair value of any investment retained; 

▪  Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss; and 

Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or retained earnings, as 
appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. 

(d)  Significant accounting estimates and assumptions 

Judgments 

In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, which have 
the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements: 

Production start date 

The group assesses each well to determine when the well moves into the production stage.  This is when the well is 
substantially completed and ready for intended use. The group considers various criteria in determining the production 
start date, including but not limited to, results of well testing, the ability of the well to sustain ongoing production, installation 
of the relevant well infrastructure and receiving the relevant regulatory approvals.   

When the well moves into the production stage the capitalisation of certain development costs ceases and costs incurred 
are expensed as a production cost.  It also at this point when that the well commences depreciation.  Any proceeds received 
from oil sales prior to the production start date as part of any well testing, are capitalised to the asset. 

Impairment of assets 

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its assets to determine whether there is any indication 
those assets have been impaired. The Group has determined that no such impairment indicators existed for the year ended 
30 June 2018 or subsequently. In making this judgement, management have considered internal and external sources of 
information including an assessment of operational performance as well as key modelling assumptions such as current 
and forecast oil price, discount rates, market valuations for similar assets and the market capitalisation of the group.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(d)  Significant accounting estimates and assumptions (continued) 

Recognition of deferred tax assets 

Judgement is required in determining whether deferred tax assets are recognised in the statement of financial 
position. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unutilised tax losses, require the Group to assess the likelihood 
that the Group will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods, in order to utilise recognised deferred tax assets. 
Judgment is also required in respect of the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. 
Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. These 
estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flows from operations (which are impacted by production 
and sales volumes oil prices, reserves, operating costs, closure and rehabilitation costs, capital expenditure, and other 
capital  management  transactions).  To  the  extent  that  future  cash  flows  and  taxable  income  differ  significantly  from 
estimates, the ability of the Group to realise the net deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted. 

In addition, future changes in tax laws in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates could limit the ability of the Group 
to obtain tax deductions in future periods. 

Estimates and assumptions 

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,  are  described  below.  The  Group  based  its  assumptions  and  estimates  on  parameters  available  when  the 
consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, 
however, may change due to market change or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Group. Such changes are 
reflected in the assumptions when they occur. 

Exploration and evaluation 

The Group's accounting policy for exploration and evaluation is set out in note 2(f). The application of this policy necessarily 
requires management to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, in 
particular the assessment of whether economic quantities of reserves may be found.  Any such, estimates and assumptions 
may change as new information becomes available.  If, after having capitalised expenditure under the Group’s policy, 
management concludes that the Group is unlikely to recover the expenditure by future exploitation or sale, then the relevant 
capitalised amount will be written off to the profit and loss. 

Provision for restoration 

Costs of site restoration are provided over the life of the field and related facilities from when exploration commences and 
are included in the costs of that stage. Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal of plant, equipment and 
building structures, waste removal, and rehabilitation of the site in accordance with clauses of the permits.  

Any  changes  in  the  estimates  for  the  costs  are  accounted  on  a  prospective  basis.  In  determining  the  costs  of  site 
restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and 
future legislation. Accordingly the costs have been determined on the basis that the restoration will be completed within 
one year of abandoning the site.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(d)  Significant accounting estimates and assumptions (continued) 

Units of production depreciation of oil and gas properties 

Oil  and  gas  properties  are  depreciated  using  the  units  of  production  (UOP)  method  over  total  proved  and  probable 
hydrocarbon reserves. This results in a depreciation/amortisation charge proportional to the depletion of the anticipated 
remaining production from the field/well. 

Each items’ life, which is assessed annually, has regard to both its physical life limitations and to present assessments of 
economically recoverable reserves of the field at which the asset is located. These calculations require the use of estimates 
and assumptions, including the amount of recoverable reserves. The calculation of the UOP rate of depreciation could be 
impacted to the extent that actual production in the future is different from current forecast production based on total proved 
and probable reserves. Changes to proved and probable reserves could arise due to changes in the factors or assumptions 
used in estimating reserves, including: 

- 

The effect on proved and probable reserves of differences between actual commodity prices and commodity price 
assumptions; or 

-  Unforeseen operational issues. 

Changes are accounted for prospectively. 

Recoverability of oil and gas properties 

The Group assesses each asset or cash generating unit (CGU) (excluding goodwill, which is assessed annually regardless 
of  indicators)  every  reporting  period  to  determine  whether  any  indication  of  impairment  exists.  Where  an  indicator  of 
impairment exists, a formal estimate of the recoverable amount is made, which is considered to be the higher of the fair 
value less costs of disposal and value in use. These assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions such as 
long-term oil prices (considering current and historical prices, price trends and related factors), discount rates, operating 
costs, future capital requirements, decommissioning costs, exploration potential, reserves operating performance (which 
includes production and sales volumes). These estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty. Therefore, 
there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will impact these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount 
of assets and/or CGUs.  Management has assessed Block 31 as being an individual CGU, which is the lowest level for 
which cash inflows are largely independent. 

Fair value measurement 

- 

Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length 
transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. Fair value is generally determined as the present value 
of estimated future cash flows arising from the continued use of the assets, which includes estimates such as the 
cost of future expansion plans and eventual disposal, using assumptions that an independent market participant 
may take into account. Cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current 
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. 

(e)  Plant and equipment 

Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. 
Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the part is 
incurred. Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(e)  Plant and equipment (continued) 

and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in 
profit or loss as incurred. 

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:  

  Plant and equipment – over 3 to 10 years 

The assets’ residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each 
financial year end. 

Disposal  
An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected 
to be derived from its use or disposal on a prospective basis. 
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and 
the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised. 

(f)  Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs 
are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the 
area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of 
economically  recoverable  reserves.    A  regular  review  is  undertaken  of  each  area  of  interest  to  determine  the 
appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. 

Unsuccessful  exploration  in  the  area  of  interest  is  expensed  as  incurred  even  if  activities  in  this  area  of  interest  are 
continuing. Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full to profit or loss in the year in which 
the decision to abandon the area is made. 

When a discovered oil or gas field enters the development phase or an individual well is assessed as being in production 
(once a trial production licence is granted) the accumulated exploration and evaluation expenditure is transferred to oil and 
gas properties. 

(g)  Oil and gas properties 

Oil and gas properties usually comprise single oil or gas fields being developed for future production or which are in the 
production phase. Where several individual oil fields are to be produced through common facilities, the individual oil field 
and the associated production facilities are managed and reported as a single oil and gas asset. 

Assets in development 

When the technical and commercial feasibility of an undeveloped oil or gas field has been demonstrated, the field enters 
its development phase. The costs of oil and gas assets in the development phase are accounted for as tangible assets 
and include past exploration and evaluation costs, development drilling and plant and equipment and any associated land 
and buildings.  

Producing assets 

The  costs  of  oil  and  gas  assets  in  production  are  accounted  for  as  tangible  assets  and  include  past  exploration  and 
evaluation costs, pre-production development costs and the ongoing costs of continuing to develop reserves for production 
and to expand or replace plant and equipment and any associated land and buildings. Producing assets are depreciated 
over total proved and probable reserves on a unit of production basis.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(h) 

Impairment of assets 

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets (excluding goodwill) 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 of disposal 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 profit or loss. 

(i)  Trade and other receivables 

Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are recognised and carried at amortised cost amount less an 
allowance for any uncollectible amounts. 

An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.  Bad debts are written off 
when identified. 

(j)  Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and short-term deposits in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand. 

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

(k) 

Inventories 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in 
the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and any estimated selling costs. 

Cost includes those costs incurred in bringing each component of inventory to its present location and condition. 

(l)  Trade and other payables 

Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and due to their short-term nature are not discounted. 
They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid 
and arise when the Group becomes obliged 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. 

(m)  Financial liabilities 

Financial liabilities within the scope of AASB 139 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, 
loans and borrowings, or as derivatives, as appropriate. The Group determines the classification of its financial liabilities 
at initial recognition. 

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans and borrowings, plus directly attributable 
transaction costs and are either subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value through profit or loss.  The Group’s 
financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings and derivative financial instruments.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(m)  Financial liabilities (continued) 

Derivative Financial Instruments 

Derivatives are fair valued using appropriate valuation techniques. Such techniques may include using recent arm’s length 
market transactions; reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same; a discounted 
cash flow analysis or other valuation techniques. Fair value movements are recognised in the profit or loss. 

(n)  Share-based payment transactions  

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to directors and executives. 

Performance Rights 
The cost of Performance Rights are measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair 
value is determined using a Monte Carlo methodology, which considers the incorporation of market based hurdles. Non-
market  conditions  are  not  factored  into  the  fair  value  of  the  performance  rights  at  grant  date.  Probability  factors  are 
assigned to the vesting expense as to whether non market conditions will be met. 

(o)  Revenue recognition 

Sales revenue 
Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer and 
revenue can be measured reliably. Revenue generated during the development stage of an asset, is offset against the 
carrying value of the asset, rather than recognised in the profit or loss within the statement of comprehensive income. 

Interest 
Revenue is recognised as the interest accrues (using the effective interest method, which is the rate that exactly discounts 
estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument) to the net carrying amount of the 
financial asset. 

(p) 

Income tax 

The consolidated entity adopts the liability method of tax-effect accounting whereby the income tax expense is based on 
the profit adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. 

Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases 
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.  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 calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is 
settled.  Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to 
equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity. 

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against 
which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. 

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no 
adverse  change  will  occur  in  income  taxation  legislation  and  the  anticipation  that  the  consolidated  entity  will  derive 
sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility 
imposed by the law.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(q)  Other taxes 

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

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

 

receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST or VAT included. 

The net amount of GST or VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables 
or payables in the balance sheet. 

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

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

(r)  Contributed equity 

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

(s)  Earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs 
of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of 
ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. 

Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for: 

 

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

  other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of 

potential ordinary shares; 

divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus 
element. 

(t)  Provisions 

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

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

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(t)  Provisions (continued) 

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

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

Restoration 
Costs of site restoration are provided over the life of the field or facility from when exploration commences and are included 
in the costs of that stage. Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal of plant, equipment and building 
structures, waste removal, and rehabilitation of the site in accordance with clauses of the permits. Such costs have been 
determined based on current legal requirements and technology.  In calculating the provision the future estimated costs 
are discounted to present value.    

Any  changes  in  the  estimates  for  the  costs  are  accounted  on  a  prospective  basis.  In  determining  the  costs  of  site 
restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and 
future legislation. Accordingly the costs have been determined on the basis that the restoration will be completed within 
one year of abandoning the site. 

(u)  Employee leave benefits 

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to 
be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in provisions in respect of employees' services up 
to the reporting date. They are measured at the nominal amounts based on current wage and salary rates, and include 
related on-costs. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at 
the rates paid or payable. 

(v)  Foreign currency transactions and balances 

(i) Functional and presentation currency 
Both  the  functional  and  presentation  currency  of  Jupiter  Energy  Limited  and  each  of  its  Australian  subsidiaries  are 
Australian dollars ($). The Singapore subsidiaries' functional currency is United States Dollars which is translated to the 
presentation currency of the Group, being Australian dollars ($). The functional currency of the Branch of the Singapore 
subsidiary is Tenge (see below for consolidated reporting). 

(ii) Transactions and balances 
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at 
the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate 
of exchange ruling at the reporting date. 

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange 
rate as at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated 
using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. 

(iii) Translation of Group Companies’ functional currency to presentation currency 
The results of the Singapore subsidiaries are translated into Australian Dollars (presentation currency of the Group) as at 
the date of each transaction. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at reporting date. 

Exchange variations resulting from the translation are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(v)  Foreign currency transactions and balances (continued) 

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in the Singapore subsidiaries 
and its Branch are taken to the foreign currency translation reserve. If a Singapore subsidiary was sold, the proportionate 
share of exchange differences would be reclassified to profit or loss 

(w)  Segments 

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue and 
incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), 
whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors (the chief operating decision makers) to make 
decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial 
information  is  available.  Management  will  also  consider  other  factors  in  determining  operating  segments  such  as  the 
existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the executive management team. 

Operating segments are identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers.  Currently 
the Group has only one operating segment, being the Group. 

(x)  Borrowing costs 

Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.  

Where funds are borrowed specifically to finance a project, the amount capitalised represents the actual borrowing costs 
incurred. Where surplus funds are available for a short term out of money borrowed specifically to finance a project, the 
income generated from the temporary investment of amounts is also capitalised and deducted from the total capitalised 
borrowing cost. Where the funds used to finance a project form part of general borrowings, the amount capitalised is 
calculated using a weighted average of rates applicable to relevant general borrowings of the Group during the period.  

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.  

Even though exploration and evaluation assets can be qualifying assets, they generally do not meet the probable economic 
benefits test and also are rarely debt funded. Any related borrowing costs are therefore generally recognised in profit or 
loss in the period they are incurred.

The main purpose of these financial instruments is to provide finance for the Group’s operations.  The Group has various other 
financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. The main 
risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are cash flow interest rate risk, liquidity risk, foreign currency risk and credit 
risk. 

Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board reviews the risks identified 
below, including the setting of limits for trading in derivatives, hedging cover of foreign currency and interest rate risk, credit 
allowances, and future cash flow forecast projections.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued) 

Interest rate risk 

The Group’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates is only on cash and cash equivalents. Other financial liabilities 
in the form of Promissory notes carry fixed interest and are therefore not subject to interest rate risk. 

At balance date, the Group had the following mix of financial assets and liabilities exposed to interest rate risk:

The  Group  has  transactional  currency  exposures.  Such  exposure  arises  from  sales  or  purchases  by  an  operating  entity  in 
currencies other than the functional currency. 

At balance date, the Group had the following exposure to United States Dollars (USD), Great Britain Pound (GBP) and Singapore 
Dollars (SGD) foreign currency that is not designated in cash flow hedges:

Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties fail to perform as contracted. 

Part of the Group's receivables balances are represented by VAT input tax credits and deposits held in trust in respect of 
leases for office premises. 

With respect to credit risk arising from the financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents and trade 
receivables, the Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the 
carrying amount of these instruments. 

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

Liquidity Risk 

The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through use of bank overdrafts, 
promissory notes, finance leases and hire purchase contracts.

Management and the Board monitor the Group’s liquidity on the basis of expected cash flow. The information that is prepared 
by senior management and reviewed by the Board includes monthly and annual cash flow budgets. 

Fair value 
The Group uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise: 

Level 1 – the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets. 
Level 2 – the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable 
for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). 
Level 3 – the fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data. 

All of the Group’s financial liabilities are carried at amortised cost, with the carrying value approximating the fair value.

future taxable profits of the companies in which the losses arose. 

The potential deferred tax asset will only be realised if: 

(a)  The relevant Group derives future assessable income of a nature and an amount sufficient to enable the asset to be 
realised, or the asset can be utilised by another Group in the consolidated entity in accordance  with Division 170 of 
the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; 

(b)  The relevant Group and/or consolidated entity continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the 

Law; and

The Group accrues provisions for the forthcoming costs of rehabilitation of the territory.  On the basis of forecasts the cost of 
rehabilitation of the oilfield would be $244,258 (2017: $234,680). The timing of rehabilitation is likely to depend on when the 
field ceases to produce at economically viable rates which is currently estimated to be 2044 (2016: 2044). This will depend 
upon future oil and gas prices, which are inherently uncertain.  The underlying rehabilitation costs are denominated in Tenge 
and in calculating the provision at 30 June 2018 a discount rate of 8.55% (2017: 8.58%) was used.

During the year, the Group was granted a range of approvals that positioned it to return to domestic production. As a result, 
major shareholder and debtholder Waterford Petroleum Limited (“Waterford”) and debt holder Midocean Holdings Limited 
(“Midocean”) (together “the Lenders”) agreed to provide up to a total of a further US$5,000,000 (including accrued interest), in 
the amounts of up to US$4,900,000 and US$100,000, respectively under a new Funding Agreement signed on 28 July 2017 
(the “2017 Funding Agreement”). 

The 2017 Funding Agreement is similar to the 2016 Funding Agreement with the addition of one new condition. This condition 
relates to the payment of a bonus to the Lenders should all or part of the permit area be sold during the term of the 2017 
Funding Agreement. 

The key terms of the 2017 Funding Agreement are: 

  Unsecured 
  Effective 31 July 2017 
  Repayable on 31 July 2019 (or such later date agreed by the parties in writing) (the “Repayment Date”) 
 
 
  Lenders can elect to be repaid if there is a change of control in Jupiter Energy Limited or Jupiter Energy Pte Ltd or 

Interest rate of 15% pa 
Interest will accrue and be repayable with principal 

there is a change in control in contract 2275 covering the Block 31 Licence 

  Bonus will be payable to the Lenders equivalent to 5% of the sale price of contract 2275 in the event that the 

contract is assigned, transferred or sold to a 3rd party during the period of the facility. No Liability has been 
recognized, as no sale agreement has been entered into. Interest rate of 15% pa 

As at 30 June 2018, the Company had drawn down $US 1,506,771 ($A 2,038,656) (including accrued interest) under the 2017

Independent auditor's report to the members of Jupiter Energy Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 

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

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

a) 

giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2018 
and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and 

b) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for opinion 

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

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

Material uncertainty related to going concern 

We draw attention to Note 2(d) of the financial report, which describes the principal conditions that raise 
doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. These events or conditions 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 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our 
audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit 
of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide a separate 
opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going 
concern section of our report, we have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matter 
to be communicated in our report. Our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in 
that context.

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

1.  Carrying value of non-current assets 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

At 30 June 2018, the Group had non-current assets 
comprising its oil and gas properties of $17,228,238, 
property, plant and equipment of $564,453 and 
capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure of 
$28,614,808.  These non-current assets are 
considered one cash-generating unit (“CGU”) for 
impairment testing purposes. 

Australian Accounting Standards require the Group to 
assess, throughout the reporting period, whether there 
is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any 
such indication exists, the Group is required to 
estimate the recoverable amount of the assets. 

The Group has performed an impairment indicator 
assessment, concluding no indicators of impairment 
exist at 30 June 2018. 

The Group operates in an industry with exposure to 
fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign exchange 
values and geological estimation of reserves, impacting 
the Group’s revenues and operating cash flows.  
Impairment assessments involve forecasts in these 
areas, which are highly judgmental.  Accordingly, this 
was considered a key audit matter. 

Disclosure regarding this matter can be found in Notes 
10, 11 and 12 of the financial report. 

We evaluated the Groups' assessment as to whether 
there were indicators of impairment. 

Ernst & Young Kazakhstan conducted audit procedures 
over the operations in Kazakhstan. Jointly, our audit 
procedures included the following: 

►  Assessed the Group’s consideration of potential 

impairment triggers including forward commodity 
price assumptions and current and historical 
operational performance 

►  Considered the Group’s right to tenure in the 

relevant producing and exploration areas, which 
included obtaining and assessing supporting 
documentation such as license agreements 

►  Considered the recoverability of the Group’s oil and 
gas reserves and resources by agreeing to the 
Group’s reserves and resource estimates to third 
party reports and current year production. We also 
assessed the qualification, competence and 
objectivity of the third party expert used by the 
Group 

►  Read the Group’s operational reports, minutes of 
directors meeting and market announcements for 
any indicators of impairment 

►  Discussed with operational management the 

performance of the underlying assets and any 
indications of underperformance, obsolescence, 
significant future capital requirements or physical 
damage to the assets 

►  Considered the relationship between the assets 
carrying and the Group’s market capitalisation 

►  Considered the carrying value of the assets against 
recent comparable transactions (expressed as a 
dollar amount per barrel of oil reserve and 
resource). 

We also considered the adequacy of disclosure in Notes 
10, 11 and 12 of the financial report.

2.  Promissory note facilities 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

At 30 June 2018, as disclosed in Note 16, the Group 
had a financial liability of $62,510,430 comprised of a 
number of promissory note facilities. 

The promissory notes are denominated in US dollars 
and are converted to the Company’s functional 
currency of Australian dollars at period end.  Any 
changes in the Australian dollar balance, due to 
movements in the foreign exchange rates, is 
recognised in the profit and loss as a foreign currency 
gain or loss. 

During the year the Group continued to draw down on 
the available promissory note facilities to fund 
operations and some terms, including repayment 
deadlines were amended. 

Accordingly, due to the significance of the balance, the 
classification and measurement of promissory notes 
was considered to be a key audit matter. 

We evaluated the appropriateness of the measurement 
and classification of amounts outstanding on the 
Group’s promissory note facilities.  Our audit 
procedures included the following: 

►  Considered the changes to the terms and conditions 
of each promissory note during the year and the 
impact of the reported balances at year end and the 
compliance with the requirements of Australian 
Accounting Standards 

►  Assessed the measurement of foreign currency 
gains or losses on promissory note balances 

►  Confirmed outstanding balances with the Issuer of 

the promissory note facilities 

►  Considered whether the Group had the 

unconditional right to defer repayment of the 
promissory note facilities by more than 12 months 
as at 30 June 2018 

►  We also considered the adequacy of disclosure in 

Note 16 of the financial report. 

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

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information 
included in the Group’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2018, but does not include the 
financial report and our 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, with the exception of the Remuneration Report and 
our related assurance opinion. 

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

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

Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report 

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

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation 

DH:DA:JUPITER:032 

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

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes 
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, 
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of 
users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

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

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

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit 
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an 
opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. 

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

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

Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or 
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are 
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely 
responsible for our audit opinion.

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

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

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