Red 5 Limited (ABN 73 068 647 610) is an Australian-based gold 
producer with established mining projects located in the Eastern 
Goldfields of Western Australia and in the Philippines.

The Company is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (Ticker: 
RED) with around 7,000 shareholders including a strong Australian and 
international institutional shareholder base. 

Red 5 owns and operates the Darlot Gold Mine located approximately 
900 kilometres north-east of Perth in the Leonora-Leinster mineral 
province of Western Australia and the nearby King of the Hills (KOTH) 
Gold Project.  Ore from Darlot is processed at the 0.83Mtpa Carbon-
in-Pulp (CIP) and Carbon-in-Leach (CIL) gold processing plant located 
on-site, which is currently operating at a throughput rate of 1.0Mtpa.

Red 5 has delivered an increase in Mineral Resources and Ore 
Reserves at Darlot with an objective to further increase mine life 
through the conversion of additional Mineral Resources to Ore 
Reserves, new discoveries and bolt-on acquisitions in the region.

In addition, a final feasibility study has been completed for a stand-
alone 4Mtpa bulk mining and processing operation at the KOTH 
project, located 80kms south of the Darlot mine.  The feasibility study 
outlined an ore reserve of 2.4Moz of contained gold for the KOTH 
project.  Early project development works have commenced and 
subject to debt financing and a final investment decision, first gold 
production is scheduled for the June 2022 quarter.

Through its Philippine-affiliated company Greenstone Resources 
Corporation, the Red 5 Group holds an interest in the Siana Gold 
Project, located on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines, which is 
held under a Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA). Mining 
operations at the Siana Gold Project are currently suspended pending 
an improvement in operating conditions in the Philippines.  The Siana 
Gold Project comprises an open pit and underground mine, CIL 
process plant and 1.1Moz JORC Resource inventory. 

2020 Annual Report

Message to Shareholders FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholders

Despite what has been an eventful 
and at times turbulent macro 
environment, overall, the 2020 
financial year has been a successful 
period for Red 5. At the end of the 
reporting period, the Company 
stands on the cusp of achieving its 
goal of establishing two independent 
production hubs in the Eastern 
Goldfields region of Western 
Australia.

The Company has completed the 
Final Feasibility Study (FFS) for the 
integrated bulk open pit and 
underground mining and processing 
operation at King of the Hills (KOTH).

The KOTH mine development, in 
conjunction with our existing Darlot 
mining operation, has the potential to 
increase our group production profile 
and elevate Red 5 into the ranks of 
Australia’s mid-tier gold producers.

During the year, Red 5 increased the 
bulk Mineral Resource base at KOTH 
by 31% to 4.1 million ounces of 
contained gold, cementing its status 
as one of the top-20 potential gold 
mines in Australia.

Red 5’s progress over the past year is 
reflected by the strong support for a 
$125 million capital raising completed 
in March 2020, which significantly 
strengthened the Company’s balance 
sheet and placed us in a strong 
position as we progress towards the 
KOTH development and steps to 
secure project debt funding.

I am pleased to say that Red 5 
responded proactively to the 
COVID-19 global pandemic and to 
date, there has been no direct impact 
on gold production as a result of 
COVID-19.  Red 5 continues to 
actively monitor the evolving situation 
to minimise any risk to our operations, 
our people or to the communities in 
which we operate.

Gold production for FY20 was below 
target totalling 92,779 ounces.  Our efforts 
to achieve target were adversely impacted 
by production and mine scheduling 
delays, short-term crusher and ball mill 
performance issues at Darlot and lower 
grades than planned at KOTH.  Red 5 has 
since implemented measures to stabilise 
production and improve predictability.  
The Company completed a detailed review 
of the Darlot gold mining operations late in 
the reporting period, with changes 
implemented resulting in an improvement 
in mine dilution and recoveries. 

Red 5 has also articulated a transitional 
production strategy that maps out a clear 
direction for the Company over the next 
18-24 months as we move towards the 
targeted start of construction at KOTH. 
With the Darlot processing plant currently 
receiving around half of its feed from 
KOTH, Red 5 is working to expand the 
Darlot underground mining activity and 
introduce satellite feed to underpin a 
long-term, stand-alone processing 
operation with no ongoing contribution 
from KOTH.

The first step in this transition will be the 
start of open pit mining at the nearby 
Great Western deposit, which Red 5 
acquired in April 2020, where we are 
expecting first ore to the Darlot mill in the 
December 2020 Quarter.

In addition, we will progressively scale-
down underground ore production at 
KOTH in the first half of FY21 to coincide 
with the planned start of site construction 
for the bulk mining operation. Red 5 
mining personnel at KOTH will be utilised 
at the Darlot and Great Western mining 
operations during FY21 until the start of 
the planned stand-alone bulk mining 
operation at KOTH.

Another key element of our Darlot Mining 
Hub strategy centres on exploration and 
resource development, with an increase in 
both Reserves and Resources at Darlot 
during the reporting period, net of mining 
depletion.   

A multi-pronged exploration program is 
underway at Darlot comprising both 
underground exploration drilling and near-
mine regional surface exploration. Red 5 
acquired several highly prospective 
tenements during the year that lie within 
economic trucking distance of the Darlot 
mill and these targets will be 
progressively tested over the coming 
months.

In addition to our core Western Australian 
assets, Red 5 also retains an interest in 
the Siana Gold Project in the Philippines, 
where mining operations were suspended 
in April 2017. We are continuing to 
evaluate opportunities to maximise the 
value from these assets for shareholders.

As we look to the future, the coming 12 
months is set to be a transformational 
period for Red 5 with the imminent 
delivery of the KOTH development and 
with existing cash resources and planned 
debt financing facilities positioning the 
Company to efficiently transition into 
production at KOTH in the first half of the 
2022 calendar year.

The exceptional progress we have made 
over the past year is due to the hard work 
and commitment of the Red 5 team, led 
by our Managing Director Mark Williams. I 
would like to extend my sincere thanks to 
the entire team for their efforts, 
particularly given the challenges 
presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. 

I would also like to acknowledge the 
strong support of our shareholders 
throughout the year. 

With the foundations put in place to date, 
Red 5 has a clear pathway to emerge as a 
significant mid-tier gold producer at a 
time of record strength in the Australian 
gold sector.

2020 Annual Report

Message to Shareholders FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTOR

The past financial year has seen Red 5 make 
significant progress towards realising the 
Company’s vision of becoming a successful 
multi-operational exploration and mining 
company, providing benefits to all 
stakeholders through the consistent 
application of technical excellence and 
responsible and sustainable industry 
practices.

The continued growth in the Company’s 
market capitalisation and profile during the 
year reflected an enormous amount of hard 
work, dedication and commitment by all 
members of the Red 5 team.  Our employees 
have been supported by an equally dedicated 
group of contractors who have helped 
oversee a growing and diversifying business 
which includes the full spectrum of activities 
required for a successful gold mining 
business – from grass-roots exploration 
through to the mining, processing and 
production of gold. 

Of the many achievements during the year, 
one of the most important has been the Final 
Feasibility Study (FFS) for the bulk mining 
and processing operation at King of the Hills 
(KOTH).  This represents an outstanding 
achievement in a year that has seen so much 
uncertainty and upheaval in the form of the 
COVID-19 pandemic.

Red 5’s mining operations over the past year 
delivered total gold production from Darlot 
and KOTH of 92,779 ounces at an all-in 
sustaining cost (AISC) of A$1,798 per ounce 
of gold sold. 

Exploration success, particularly at KOTH, 
has been one of the keys to Red 5’s growth 
over the past few years.  Our exploration, 
geology and mining teams once again 
delivered significant uplifts in both the KOTH 
bulk Mineral Resource and the Darlot 
Reserve and Resource base, as well as 
maiden Mineral Resource estimates for 
several near-mine open pit deposits 
surrounding KOTH. 

Exploration will remain a key focus in FY21, 
particularly at Darlot where several strategic 
bolt-on acquisitions were made during the 
year to significantly expand the Company’s 
tenement position. Red 5’s exploration 
strategy at Darlot is aimed at establishing the 
Darlot Gold Mine as a stand-alone mining 
and processing hub, with a targeted 5-10 
year mine life, with no ongoing contribution of 
ore from the stand-alone KOTH operation. 

Darlot and KOTH locations, showing historical production from key gold deposits in the region. 

HEALTH AND SAFETY
The Company’s Darlot mine is certified to OHSAS 18001, a leading health and safety 
standard and work has commenced on upgrading management systems to the new  
ISO 45001 standard, which provides additional benefits including:

 \ implementation of a more integrated approach to health and safety management, with 

our company leaders driving performance;

 \ an emphasis on identifying potential risks and employing pre-emptive measures; and

 \ inclusion of suppliers and contractors in the management of health and safety.

The Company continues to strive to develop a culture of safety leadership within the 
organisation and firmly embed safety management as a line management responsibility. 
This is achieved through:

 \ utilisation of fit-for purpose management systems aligned to critical control 

management; and

 \ continued support for the Red 5 behaviour based programme, Vital Behaviours, to 

embed the right safety behaviours and choices at crucial moments at work.

Red 5 ensures compliance with all 
occupational health regulations.  All 
monitoring is undertaken according to the 
Company’s risk based hygiene 
management plan, developed with 
occupational hygienist consultation and 
expertise.

Red 5 continues to proactively manage the 
potential impact of the COVID-19 global 
pandemic on the Company’s operations. 
The Management Response Plan 
implemented in February 2020 is focused 
on ensuring the health and safety of Red 5 
personnel and limiting the disruption risk to 
mining and processing operations. This 
plan has been progressively developed in 
line with the formal guidance of State and 
Federal health authorities, close 
coordination with the Australian Resources 
and Energy Group (AMMA) and under the 
Company’s existing Emergency 
Management Policies.  Red 5 continues to 
fully adhere to all relevant government 
regulations. 

There has been no direct material impact 
from COVID-19 on the Company’s 
operational performance to date.

EASTERN GOLDFIELDS, 
WESTERN AUSTRALIA
Red 5 holds an extensive 365km2 strategic 
footprint in the world-class Leonora-
Leinster mineral district of Western 
Australia, which includes the operating 
Darlot and KOTH gold mines. Mining 
operations continued at both mines 
throughout the reporting period, with KOTH 
ore trucked to Darlot for milling through the 
processing plant. 

In addition to its operating gold mines, Red 
5’s tenements also offer significant 
exploration upside, with active exploration 
programs being undertaken at both Darlot 
and KOTH during the year. 

Following the identification of a large-scale 
potential bulk mining opportunity at KOTH 
during FY19, Red 5 has during the recent 
reporting period, increased the total bulk 
Mineral Resource to 4.1 million ounces of 
contained gold and has completed the 
KOTH FFS.

In the latter part of the year, Red 5 undertook a comprehensive peer review (mine) and 
external review (geology) of mining operations and implemented the following operational 
initiatives:

 \ Addressed gaps in stope design, geology and mining management systems that were 

contributing to mine grade and dilution under performance;

 \ Added specific personnel resources to improve Resource modelling and grade control;

 \ At KOTH, adjusted stope designs to a combination of bulk mining and high-grade 

narrow vein stopes to deliver planned ore grades of ~3g/t Au;

 \ Introduced Short Interval Control and communication between key production areas, 

ensuring that volume and grade are delivered to plan;

 \ Implemented crusher improvements and reduced screen/material size, increasing 

throughput;

 \ Improved ROM pad and haulage contractor management;

 \ Made improvements to the transparency of mine reconciliation processes; and  

 \ Commissioned an external technical review to assess modelling and reconciliation 

processes.

Following the progressive implementation of these changes, the Darlot mine has produced 
at forecast rates with average head grades improving to ~3.5g/t in June 2020. The variation 
in grade delivery also improved from 30% to 5%, resulting from reduced dilution and 
improving mill feed predictability.

Since its acquisition by Red 5 in October 2017, the Darlot 
processing plant has generally operated efficiently, however, a 
series of unplanned outages in the second half of the financial year 
had a considerable impact on the performance of the current year 
operations. Several preventative maintenance initiatives were 
executed during the year to improve the long-term reliability of the 
mill, including: 

 \ A review and trial of Primary Ball Mill liner design, improving 
flow and stability and reducing or removing pegging and 
blockages at the discharge grates;

 \ Crushing plant structural reinforcement/realignment to reduce 
spillage, improve conveyor alignment and reduce belt failures, 
resulting in improved throughput;

 \ Replacement of the armoured chain conveyor for the apron 
feeder including increasing the size of the Haglan Drive, 
resulting in improvements in hydraulics, power and delivery;

 \ Introduction of a tank refurbishment program, including 

upgrades to the Leach Tank 1 agitator with central oxygen 
injection and complete rebuilds of Absorption Tanks A2 and A8.  
This has reduced downtime and increased absorption time to 
maintain high recovery levels; and

 \ Installation of primary and secondary gravity concentrators with 

the installation of a new Falcon unit.

Mining activities - Darlot

The high-grade Oval West deposit was the primary ore source from 
the Darlot Gold Mine, with bulk stoping continuing throughout most 
of FY20. The majority of high-grade stopes at Oval West were 
largely depleted by the end of the reporting period.

Bulk stoping was also undertaken in the Centenary (Lillie, Walters 
and Lords) and Burswood orebodies.  Airleg mining was 
undertaken at the Pederson, Hurst, Metzke and Federation areas.

Additional remnant stoping fronts were identified in the Centenary 
orebody during the year and mined as a sub-level cave.  Results 
were positive during the extraction period and mill performance 
confirmed higher grades than expected.  Further similar remnant 
areas have been identified in close proximity and re-risked by grade 
control drilling for extraction in FY21.  Airleg mining in the BO1040 
and Hurst resulted in positive reconciliations with visible gold 
retrieved on numerous occasions.

W4920, the first level at KOTH designed specifically for bulk 
stoping, as well as on the W4954 B1, W4970 and W4952 levels.

Additional stoping was undertaken on the W5010, W4975, W4950 
and E5050 levels from a mixture of bulk and narrow stopes.  Narrow 
vein stopes were focused on the high-grade lodes on the north side 
of W4920 level with the Jon, Janos and Jaqen lodes.  At the end of 
the reporting period, development had reached the W4985 level 
including the primary ventilation network. 

With the acquisition of the Great Western project in April 2020, the 
opportunity is being taken to commence open pit mining from the 
December Quarter 2020 and progressively scale down 
underground ore production at KOTH in the second half of CY2020.  
This will coincide with the planned start of site construction for the 
proposed bulk mining operation at KOTH.

FEASIBILITY STUDIES – KING OF THE HILLS PROJECT

The Final Feasibility Study (FFS) for the stand-alone integrated bulk open pit and 
underground mining and processing operation at KOTH was a key focus for Red 5 
throughout FY20. The FFS was completed in mid-September 2020. 

As part of early works commitments, Red 5 acquired a 240-room portable accommodation 
complex, five laundries, a wastewater treatment plant and a 1,050 m2 modular office 
building. This infrastructure is being delivered to the KOTH site and will be progressively 
installed. This will allow the Company to commence early site works at KOTH in the 
December 2020 Quarter.

Negotiations are also being finalised for final purchase agreements of a Single-Stage 
Semi-Autogenous Grinding (SAG) mill and a gyratory crusher. 

Significant infrastructure already exists at King of the Hills including the mine portal and underground 
development.

EXPLORATION AND 
RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT

DARLOT

Underground exploration

Underground exploration during FY20 
focused on the Lords Felsics orebody, 
situated along the moderately northwest 
dipping Lords Fault which hosts the Lords 
South and Lords South Lower orebodies 
up-dip. The Lords Felsics orebody consists 
of flat lying extensional veins hosted in both 
magnetic dolerite and felsic porphyry 
intrusives within dolerite. The veins occur as 
tensional lodes between the Lords and 
parallel Pipeline Fault that was identified 
with 3D seismic data.  Drilling successfully 
extended the high-grade central corridor of 
the orebody to the north and south as well 
as down-dip along the Lords Fault. 

Drilling at Lords Felsics also targeted the 
Pipeline structure 200m east of the current 
Lords South Lower mine workings at the 
600mRL (860m below surface). The 
structure is sub-parallel to the steep 
west-dipping Lords Structure. This drilling 
targeted the expected intersection of the 
Pipeline and flat Chappel lode up-dip of the 
existing Resource. The Pipeline was 
intersected at a greater depth than 
modelled with several mineralised zones 
present, thereby extending the Resource. 

For FY21, approximately 22,500m of 
underground exploration drilling has been 
initially planned for Darlot, targeting Oval 
North West, Middle Walters South along the 
Eldorado trend, Lords Felsics Northern 
Extension, Eldorado North and Oval 
Flattening.

Second-hand portable accommodation units comprising 240 rooms.

Great Western 

KING OF THE HILLS

Bulk Mineral Resource update

Red 5 signed an Option Agreement to 
purchase the Great Western project in 
November 2019 and subsequently undertook 
a programme of diamond and reverse 
circulation due diligence drilling.  The Great 
Western gold deposit is located within 80km 
trucking distance of the Darlot Mill and 
represents a potential source of mill feed for 
the Darlot Mining Hub strategy.

Results from RC drilling confirmed the widths 
and grade of the main Great Western 
laminated quartz vein, with best results 
including: 

 \ 9.0m @ 3.30g/t Au from 49.0m 

(19GWRC001)

 \ 14.0m @ 2.52g/t Au from 79.0m 

(19GWRC002)

 \ 8.0m @ 1.22g/t Au from 42.0m 

(19GWRC003)

 \ 20.0m @ 6.07g/t Au from 113.0m 

(19GWRC003)

Cables and Mission

Red 5 signed an Option Agreement to 
purchase the Cables and Mission project, 
located 10km from Darlot, in December 2019, 
and undertook a program of due diligence 
drilling to validate historical drilling results and 
determine the potential of the Cables and 
Mission deposits.

This program comprised six reverse 
circulation drill holes for 858m, with best 
intercepts of:

 \ 7m @ 5.7g/t Au (20MIRC0001)

Red 5 completed an 85,000-metre underground diamond drilling program at KOTH 
during FY20 aimed at:

 \ Converting as much of the existing Underground Resource into Ore Reserves for 

inclusion in the FFS;

 \ Reassessing the final pit shape to determine whether more of the underground 

Resource can be included in the pit due to grade uplift in both the North and South; 
and

 \ Testing potential extensions of the existing underground Resource along strike and 

down-dip.

In addition, the Company completed assaying of its inventory of ~32,000m of previously 
unassayed drill core from 518 historical diamond drill holes, confirming the presence of 
significant gold mineralisation and revealing significant zones in areas that had been 
assigned zero grade in the May 2019 Resource model.

Following the completion of these programs, in March 2020 Red 5 reported an updated 
bulk mining Mineral Resource estimate for the KOTH Gold Project comprising 90.7 million 
tonnes at 1.4g/t Au for an estimated 4.07 million ounces of contained gold.

Compared to the May 2019 Mineral Resource estimate, the March 2020 Mineral 
Resource model delivered a significant increase in the open pit component of the Mineral 
Resource (and a reduction in the underground Mineral Resource). This is due to a large 
proportion of the contained ounces within and outside of the May 2019 Underground 
Resource estimate now falling into the much larger optimised pit shell.

Regional satellite deposits

During the reporting period, Red 5 completed regional surface drilling programmes at 
several near-mine targets at KOTH, aimed at defining potential open pit ore sources.

These drilling programs underpinned the delivery of maiden JORC 2012 Mineral 
Resource estimates for the Cerebus-Eclipse and Centauri near-mine deposits at KOTH, 
adding to the previously reported Resources for the Rainbow and Severn deposits 
delivered in FY19.

These satellite deposits are an important element of Red 5’s proposed mining strategy 
for the KOTH Project, with the potential to provide open pit mill feed and cash flow in the 
early stages of a proposed bulk mining operation.

 \ 4m @ 14.7g/t Au (20MIRC0002)

Down-plunge deeps exploration

Red 5 has identified the potential to further expand on the bulk Mineral Resource at 
KOTH by targeting the northerly down-plunge extension along the granodiorite intrusion. 
This opportunity was identified from a series of historical diamond drill holes undertaken 
by previous owners in 2008 and 2010 which returned high-grade results including 4.0m 
@ 30.7g/t Au (TARD4041) and 1.0m @ 13.6g/t Au (TARD4007).

A three-hole “proof of concept” drill program was undertaken by Red 5 to follow-up this 
potential.  The results further enhance the potential to extend the Resource area at KOTH 
and highlight the northerly plunge of the granodiorite intrusive margins as a compelling 
Resource extension target.

 \ 5m @ 3.7g/t Au (20CBRC0003)

The Cables and Mission deposits are hosted 
within similar rock units, including magnetic 
dolerite, that host the Centenary orebody, 
10km to the south. These magnetic dolerite 
units are an important host rock in the Darlot 
mine area and have historically produced high 
gold grades with good recoveries (typically 
>93%) through the Darlot processing plant.

Red 5 plans to undertake additional drilling 
programs and other feasibility activities to 
enable the estimation of a JORC 2012 
compliant Mineral Resource.

SIANA GOLD PROJECT, PHILIPPINES
Through its Philippine-affiliated company Greenstone Resources Corporation, the Red 5 
Group holds an interest in the Siana Gold Project, located on the island of Mindanao in the 
Philippines, which is held under a Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA). 

Mining operations at the Siana Project are currently suspended, pending an improvement in 
operating conditions in the Philippines.  Ongoing activities at the Siana project during the 
year included maintaining dewatering of the open pit, infrastructure maintenance, 
monitoring of geotechnical issues and community and government relations activities.

Red 5’s Philippine-affiliated company, Greenstone Resources Corporation, is continuing to 
evaluate its preferred plan and options for the Siana Gold Project, including a revised 
mining strategy for the Siana open pit mine and required funding for the potential future 
recommencement of operations. 

CORPORATE
Capital raising

In March 2020 the Company undertook a $125 million capital raising in two tranches via a 
share placement to sophisticated and professional investors to underpin the Company’s 
growth objectives. The placement was oversubscribed with both existing shareholders and 
new Australian and international institutional investors participating. 

The placement significantly de-risks the funding requirements to develop the integrated 
bulk open pit and underground mining and stand-alone processing operation at KOTH. 

Bolt-on acquisitions to expand Darlot Mining Hub

Red 5 acquired a number of new tenements surrounding the Darlot processing plant during 
the year, as part of its strategy to expand the Darlot Mineral Resource base, which includes 
ongoing near-mine and regional exploration as well as the consolidation of strategic 
opportunities.

Strategic project acquisitions during the year included:

 \ Sub-lease over the 13 blocks of Exploration Licence E37/1220 (Sub-lease Area) south 

of latitude -27°45’, which hosts the Cables and Missions gold deposits.

 \ 100% interest in Mining Lease M37/54, containing the Great Western gold deposit, 
located approximately 80km by road to the south of the Darlot processing plant.

 \ Extensive tenement package including the highly prospective Emperor and King of the 
West Projects.  The Emperor tenements are adjacent to Red 5’s existing Ockerburry 
project and the King of the West tenement is located ~7km south of the Great Western 
project.

Financial 

The Group recorded sales revenue of $200.3 million. Net cash flow from operating activities 
was $51.5 million with $122.3 million in cash and in metal accounts at year end.  The net 
profit after tax for the year ended 30 June 2020 was $4.54 million in comparison to a net 
loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2019 of $3.03 million.

In August 2019, Red 5 entered into an agreement with Macquarie Bank Limited to provide 
the Company with an A$20 million working capital facility, which allowed the refinancing of 
a gold loan facility and strengthened Red 5’s balance sheet and operating liquidity. 

The Company is also well advanced with 
negotiations with prospective financiers to 
secure the debt funding component for the 
KOTH development.  We expect to 
commence early site works in the 
December 2020 Quarter. 

In parallel with these activities, we remain 
firmly focused on delivering strong and 
reliable gold production based on the 
transitional production strategy announced 
in June 2020. This strategy will see the 
Darlot mill being fed by three mines in FY21, 
with the commencement of open pit mining 
at the Great Western deposit in the 
December 2020 Quarter and the 
progressive scale-down and suspension of 
mining at KOTH.

In addition, we have a multi-pronged 
exploration programme underway at Darlot, 
aiming to establish the Darlot Gold Mine as 
a stand-alone mining and processing hub, 
with an aspirational objective of a 5-10 year 
mine life.

This programme comprises three separate 
work streams – underground drilling to 
expand the Darlot Mineral Resource, with 
22,500m of underground drilling planned for 
FY21; the development of regional targets 
within trucking distance of the Darlot mill, 
with over 50,000m of drilling currently 
planned across the Cables and Mission, 
Great Western and Ockerburry targets; and 
the evaluation of further new bolt-on 
acquisitions and prospective tenement 
applications.

There is no doubt that it will be an intensely 
active and productive year ahead.  The 
positive outlook for the Company is due to 
the outstanding efforts and achievements of 
the hard-working Red 5 team, and I would 
like to sincerely thank all of our staff and 
contractors for their efforts over the past 
year. 

I would also like to thank our shareholders 
for your continued support. 

Summary and outlook

With the completion of the FFS for the KOTH bulk mine development and backed by the 
recent $125 million capital raising, the coming 12 months are expected to be a period of 
substantial growth for Red 5 as the Company prepares to make the transition to operating 
two independent mining and processing hubs in the Eastern Goldfields.

MINERAL RESOURCES AND ORE RESERVES STATEMENT

WESTERN AUSTRALIAN GOLD OPERATIONS
During the 2020 financial year, Red 5 reported an updated Mineral Resource estimate for the King of the Hills (KOTH) gold project.  Drilling 
and resource definition programmes completed during the reporting period resulted in an updated open pit and underground Mineral 
Resource estimate for KOTH totalling 90.7Mt at 1.4g/t Au for 4.1Moz of contained gold as at May 2020.  In addition, Red 5 also reported 
maiden JORC 2012 Mineral Resource estimates for the Centauri and Cerebus-Eclipse satellite deposits at KOTH. 

Red 5 acquired the Great Western project in April 2020 which contains a JORC 2012 resource of 62koz of contained gold. Red 5 also 
acquired an exclusive sub-lease over the southern portion of Exploration Licence E37/1220 which contains the Cables and Missions 
resources with a JORC 2004 resource of 185koz of contained gold.  

The Company’s Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates, net of mining depletion, as at 30 June 2020 are detailed below.

1  Subsequent to the end of the financial year, current underground mining at KOTH will be progressively scaled-down in the second half of the 

2020 calendar year in advance of the planned commencement of construction activities for a proposed stand-alone bulk mining and 
processing operation (refer to ASX release dated 16 July 2020). In September 2020 Red 5 reported the results of the KOTH final feasibility 
study which included a Probable Open Pit and Underground Ore Reserve for the KOTH project of 64.6Mt grading 1.2g/t Au for 2.4Moz of 
contained gold (refer to ASX release dated 15 September 2020, KOTH Final Feasibility Study delivers 2.4Moz Ore Reserve, underpinning an 
initial 16-year mine life and confirming a clear pathway to production in 2022).

PHILIPPINE OPERATIONS

SIANA GOLD PROJECT

An annual review and update to the Siana Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates for the year ended 30 June 2020 has been 
undertaken, with no resultant change from the figures quoted as at 30 June 2019.  

Open pit mining operations at the Siana project were suspended in April 2017 due to ongoing uncertainty regarding regulatory and 
government mining policy in the Philippines. Red 5’s Philippine-affiliated company, Greenstone Resources Corporation, subsequently 
received clearance to proceed with the construction and operation of a new tailings storage facility for the Siana mine. Greenstone 
Resources Corporation is evaluating its preferred plan and options for the Siana Gold Project. Due to the present lack of available tailings 
storage capacity, no JORC 2012 Ore Reserve estimate is reported for the Siana open pit as at 30 June 2020.  The Siana Underground Ore 
Reserve is not impacted by the lack of surface tailings storage capacity, as the underground development is based on cemented tailings 
produced through the Siana processing plant being back-filled into stoped-out areas.  The non-reporting of an open pit Reserve does not 
impact the reporting of the remaining Siana open pit and underground Resources.

Red 5 continues to proactively manage the potential impact of the 
COVID-19 global pandemic on the Company’s operations. The 
Management Response Plan implemented in February 2020 is 
focused on ensuring the health and safety of Red 5 personnel and 
limiting the disruption risk to mining and processing operations. 
This plan has been progressively developed in line with the formal 
guidance of State and Federal health authorities, close 
coordination with the Australian Resources and Energy Group 
(AMMA) and under the Company’s existing Emergency 
Management Policies. 

The ongoing focus to protect the health and safety of our 
employees and other stakeholders through the COVID-19 
pandemic has pleasingly resulted in no cases identified at Darlot 
and King of the Hills operations nor the Siana gold project in the 
Philippines to this point and there has been no material impact 
from COVID-19 on the Company’s operational performance.

Darlot and King of the Hills gold operations

A total of 92,779 ounces of gold was recovered for the 12 months 
to 30 June 2020 with ore sourced from the Darlot Gold Mine and 
from KOTH.  A summary of key production statistics for the year 
ended 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2019 is provided below:

Siana Gold Project, Philippines

Mining operations at the Siana gold project in the Philippines 
remained suspended pending an improvement in operating 
conditions in the Philippines. Ongoing activities at Siana include 
dewatering of the open pit, infrastructure maintenance and 
monitoring of geotechnical issues.

Consolidation of the Group’s Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves 
across the operations remains a strong focus for Red 5. The 
Company acquired a number of new tenements surrounding the 
Darlot processing plant during the year, as part of its multi-strand 
strategy to expand the Darlot Mineral Resource base, which 
includes ongoing near-mine and regional exploration as well as 
the consolidation of strategic opportunities.

With the acquisition of the Great Western project in April 2020, the 
opportunity is being taken to commence open pit mining from the 
December Quarter 2020 and progressively scale down 
underground ore production at KOTH in the second half of 
CY2020. This will coincide with the planned start of site 
construction for the proposed bulk mining operation at KOTH.

Red 5 signed an Option Agreement to purchase the Cables and 
Mission project, located 10km from Darlot, in December 2019, and 
undertook a program of due diligence drilling to validate historical 
drilling results.  The option was exercised in May 2020 and Red 5 
plans to undertake additional drilling programs and other 
feasibility activities to enable the estimation of a JORC 2012 
compliant Mineral Resource.

Feasibility studies – King of the Hills project

The Final Feasibility Study (FFS) for the stand-alone integrated 
bulk open pit and underground mining and processing operation 
at KOTH was a key focus for Red 5 throughout FY20. The FFS was 
completed in September 2020. 

Corporate

In March 2020, the Company undertook a $125 million capital 
raising in two tranches via a share placement to sophisticated and 
professional investors to underpin the Company’s growth 
objectives. The placement was oversubscribed with both existing 
shareholders and new Australian and international institutional 
investors participating. 

The placement significantly de-risks the funding requirements to 
develop the integrated bulk open pit and underground mining and 
stand-alone processing operation at KOTH.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)
3. 
Darlot and King of the Hills recorded a gross profit for the period 
of $39,226,000 (30 June 2019: $11,168,000). A combined 92,953 
ounces of gold were sold during the year, which together with 
silver sales and hedging adjustments resulted in total revenue of 
$200,232,000. Cost of sales for the period of $161,106,000 
comprised production costs, royalties, movement in stockpiles 
and depreciation charge. The higher sales revenue during the year 
is reflective of higher gold prices. 

The Group’s net profit for the period was mainly driven by gross 
profit from operations, offset by administrative expenses, 
exploration expenditure, ineffective portion of cashflow hedges, 
Siana project expenses and fair value loss on financial liabilities 
attributable to high forward gold prices. Financing expenses 
included unwinding of the effective interest rate of the gold loan 
and Macquarie working capital facility interest. 

Balance sheet

Total assets increased from $177,147,000 to $343,395,000 at 30 
June 2020. The net increase in total assets was mainly driven by 
the cash received pursuant the $125,000,000 capital raising and 
associated capitalised King of the Hills final feasibility study and 
exploration expenditure for project acquisitions resource drilling.  

Total liabilities were $147,346,000, an increase of $49,580,000 
from 30 June 2019. This was mainly driven by a negative mark-to-
market adjustment on gold hedges ($28,604,000) due to 
increased forward curve on gold prices and from the $20,000,000 
drawn down on the working capital facility with Macquarie; offset 
by the repayment of the gold loan facility of 5,015 ounces and the 
repayment of the deferred consideration relating to the Darlot 
acquisition. Additionally, with the change in accounting for leases 
from 1 July 2019, the Company has recognised lease liabilities of 
$11,110,000 at 30 June 2020. 

Cash flow

During the year, cash and cash equivalents increased by 
$105,573,000.  Free Cash inflows from operating activities for the 
period were $51,512,000. Cash receipts from customers of 
$204,479,000 reflect the sale of gold and silver which benefited 
from higher gold prices during the year. This was offset by cash 
outflows of $152,967,000, driven by higher operational costs 
resulting from the Company’s ramp-up to full production.

Net cash outflows used in investing activities for the period were 
$54,548,000, reflecting sustaining and growth capital including 
the Tailings Storage Facility No. 4 construction, development 
costs at both Darlot and King of the Hills mines, Final Feasibility 
Study costs, project acquisitions and deferred consideration paid 
associated with the acquisition of the Darlot and King of the Hills 
mines.

The net cash from financing activities of $108,470,000 reflects the 
net proceeds received from the capital raising, the proceeds from 
the $20,000,000 Macquarie working capital facility offset by 
$8,000,000 principal repayments and associated interests, the 
repayment of 5,015 ounces of the gold loan facility and 
repayments of lease liabilities.

11.2  REMUNERATION GOVERNANCE

The Remuneration and Nomination Committee (the Committee) of 
the Board of Directors (the Board) is responsible for determining 
the remuneration arrangements for KMPs and making 
recommendations to the Board. The Committee is comprised of 
three Non-Executive Directors.

The Committee reviews remuneration levels and other terms of 
employment on a periodic basis having regard to relevant 
employment market conditions, strategy of the Group, 
qualifications and experience of the KMPs and performance 
against targets set for each year.

The Committee also advises on the appropriateness of 
remuneration packages of the Group given trends in comparative 
peer companies both locally and internationally, with the overall 
objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the 
retention of a high-quality board and executive team.

Overall remuneration policies are determined by the Board and 
are adapted to reflect competitive market and business 
conditions. Within this framework, the Committee considers 
remuneration policies and practices generally, and determines 
specific remuneration packages and other terms of employment 
for the Managing Director and senior executives. Executive 
remuneration and other terms of employment are reviewed 
annually by the Committee having regard to performance, relevant 
comparative information and expert advice.

11.  REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (cont.)

11.3  PRINCIPLES OF REMUNERATION

11.4.2  Short-term incentives linked to annual planning  

Red 5’s remuneration policies are designed to align executives’ 
remuneration with shareholders’ interests and to retain 
appropriately qualified executive talent for the benefit of Red 5. 
The main principles of the policy are:

 \ fixed remuneration should be set around the middle of the 
relevant market data, at P50, which represents the 50th 
percentile;

 \ reward reflects the competitive market in which Red 5 

operates;

 \ for executives, individual reward should be linked to 

performance criteria through variable remuneration, and

 \ at target, which is intended to be a challenging but 
achievable performance, the combination of fixed 
remuneration and the outcomes of variable remuneration 
should position Total Remuneration Packages between 
P50 and P75 of the market, 

 \ variable remuneration should generally be offered in the 
form of separate short (1 year) and long term (3 year) 
incentives; and

 \ Non-Executive Directors should not receive remuneration 
related to performance or participate in any executive 
incentive plan.

11.4  EXECUTIVE REMUNERATION FRAMEWORK

Red 5’s remuneration policy for the Managing Director and senior 
executives is designed to promote superior performance and 
long-term commitment to Red 5, while building sustainable 
shareholder value.  Remuneration packages are set at levels that 
are intended to attract and retain executives capable of managing 
Red 5’s operations. The Managing Director and senior executives 
receive a base remuneration which is market related, together with 
performance-based remuneration linked to the achievement of 
pre-determined milestones and targets.  

The structure of remuneration packages for the Managing Director 
and other senior executives comprises:

 \ Fixed remuneration;

 \ Short-term incentives linked to annual planning and longer-

term objectives; and

 \ Long-term incentives through participation in performance-

based equity plans, with the prior approval of shareholders to 
the extent required.

The proportion of fixed and variable remuneration is established 
for the Managing Director and senior executives by the Committee 
and is linked to both relevant market practices and the degree to 
which the Board intends participants to focus on short and 
long-term outcomes.  

11.4.1  Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration comprises director’s fees, consulting fees, 
salaries, and superannuation contributions. 

and longer-term objectives

The objective of short-term incentives is to link achievement of 
Red 5’s annual targets for outcomes linked to Red 5’s strategy, or 
which clearly build shareholder value, with the remuneration 
received by executives charged with meeting those targets. The 
short-term incentive is an “at risk” component of remuneration for 
key management personnel and is payable based on performance 
against key performance indicators set at the beginning of each 
financial year. Targets are intended to be challenging but 
achievable and may or may not be linked to budget, depending on 
whether or not the budget is viewed by the Board as meeting this 
definition.

Performance incentives may be offered to the Managing Director 
and senior executives through the operation of incentive schemes. 
The short-term incentive is offered annually, set as a percentage 
of annual salary, payment of which is conditional upon the 
achievement of agreed key performance indicators (KPIs) for each 
executive, which comprise a combination of agreed milestones 
and financial measures. These milestones are selected from 
group, functional/unit and individual level objectives, each 
weighted to reflect their relative importance and each with targets 
linked to the Board’s expectations and with threshold, target and 
stretch levels set where possible (some KPIs are binary and are 
either achieved or not achieved). 

The KPIs comprise financial and non-financial objectives and 
include out-performance against the annual operating budget, in 
terms of gold production, operating costs, and EBITDA, health 
and safety targets and specific operations-related milestones. 
Measures chosen directly align the individual’s reward to the KPIs 
of the group and to its strategy and performance. The plan also 
has a financial gate to ensure that no performance bonus is 
payable when it would be inappropriate or unaffordable to do so. 
Any award under the STI for the Managing Director and executives 
is generally subject to deferral at a rate of 50% of the award, to be 
delivered in the form of Service or Deferred Rights, subject to 
shareholder approval, if required. 

The Service and Deferred Rights are intended to prevent the 
equity being sold for a period of 12 to 24 months (respectively). 
Service rights are subject to a 12-month service test. The purpose 
of deferral is to manage the risk of short-termism inherent in 
setting short term objectives, to promote sustainable value 
creation and to build further alignment with shareholders.

11.4.3  Long-term incentives through participation  
in performance-based equity plans

The objective of long-term incentives is to promote alignment 
between executives and shareholders through the holding of 
equity. As such, long term incentives are only granted to 
executives who are able to directly influence the generation of 
shareholder wealth, or who are in a position to contribute to 
shareholder wealth creation.

2020 Annual Report

 
 
DIRECTORS’ REPORT (cont.)

11.  REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (cont.)
As the operations of the Group expand, the Board continues to progressively develop remuneration policies and practices that 
appropriately link remuneration to company performance and shareholder wealth, given the circumstances of Red 5 at the time. This 
includes a long-term incentive scheme whereby Performance Rights are granted with a measurement period of three years with vesting 
conditions comprising Total Shareholder Return (TSR) outperformance against the All Ordinaries Gold Index and agreed operational 
measures including gold production, operating costs, ore reserves, safety performance and strategic targets. The TSR measure is 
subject to a positive TSR gate and the other measures are subject to a production or financial gate. The Group’s TSR is measured as a 
percentile ranking compared to the S&P/ASX All Ordinaries Gold Index.

Share-based compensation

The Board has adopted the Red 5 Rights Plan. The primary purpose of this plan is to increase the motivation of employees, promote the 
retention of employees, align employee interests with those of Red 5 and its shareholders and to reward employees who contribute to 
the growth of Red 5. The Red 5 Rights Plan is appropriately utilised for offers of both deferred short term incentives (Service and 
Deferred Rights) and long term incentives (Performance Rights). Specific performance hurdles or vesting schedules are determined by 
the Board at the time of grant under the Rights Plan in the case of LTI and are aligned with the stage of development and operations of 
the Group and market conditions and practices.

Red 5’s share trading policy prohibits key management personnel that are granted share-based payments as part of their remuneration, 
from entering into other arrangements that limit their exposure to losses that would result from share price decreases.  Entering into 
such arrangements is also prohibited by law.

11.5.1  STI performance pay outcome

The short term incentive bonus component of remuneration is based on achievement of group and specific role related operational 
targets for the year ended 30 June 2020 including achievement of core EBITDA targets, completion of strategies relating to the Siana 
assets and progress in the evaluation and development of the King of the Hills bulk mining and processing operation, the achievement 
of gold production and operating cost targets for the financial year and individual effectiveness. A gate of 80% of budgeted gold 
production level applies to all KPIs. 

The amount vested represents 60.1% of the available target bonus with the balance being forfeited due to performance criteria not 
being met. The financial gate of a minimum level of gold production was met and the EBITDA target was exceeded. The Committee has 
elected that the STI award for Mr Williams for the year ended 30 June 2020 would be cash settled in full.  For Mr Tasovac and Mr 
Shadlow, 50% of the performance bonus is payable in share rights (both service rights and deferred rights), with the other 50% to be 
paid in cash.

Based on these results the Board has awarded an STI to eligible KMPs as follows:

11.5.2  LTI performance pay outcome

In accordance with the terms of the Red 5 Rights Plan (Plan), a total of 9,496,400 performance rights (Performance Rights) that were 
issued to key management personnel in 2018 reached the end of their performance period. As at the date of this report, 5,697,840 
Performance Rights have vested following the partial achievement of performance conditions (being Total Shareholder Return 
outperformance against the All Ordinaries Gold Index and increases in ore reserves) measured over the three years ended 30 June 
2020. The Board made a vesting determination based on the achievement of performance conditions over the measurement period and 
also taking into account, amongst other factors considered relevant, Company performance from the perspective of shareholders over 
the measurement period.

The balance of 3,798,560 Performance Rights were forfeited due to performance conditions not being met.

AGREEMENTS

11.6.1  Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration

In accordance with current corporate governance practices, the structure for the remuneration of Non-Executive Directors and senior 
executives is separate and distinct. Shareholders approve the maximum aggregate remuneration payable to Non-Executive Directors, 
with the current approved limit being $650,000 per annum. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee recommend the actual 
payments to Directors and the Board is responsible for ratifying any recommendations.  

The current fee policy is as follows:

 \ The Chair receives fees of $120,000 per annum plus superannuation; 

 \ Non-Executive Directors receive $90,000 per annum plus superannuation; 

 \ Chairs of Board committees receive:

 \ $10,000 per annum plus superannuation for the audit committee, and

 \ $5,000 per annum plus superannuation for other committees; 

 \ Committee members are not paid any additional fee;  

 \ Non-Executive Directors are entitled to statutory superannuation benefits; and  

 \ The Board approves any consultancy arrangements for Non-Executive Directors who provide services outside of and in addition to 

their duties as Non-Executive Directors.

Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to participate in performance-based remuneration schemes. However, the Board may seek 
annual shareholder approval for a Non-Executive Directors’ share plan, under which Non-Executive Directors can elect to receive a 
portion of their existing Directors fees in shares in Red 5. All Directors are entitled to have premiums on indemnity insurance paid by 
Red 5. During the financial year, Red 5 paid premiums of $238,068 (2019: $205,408) to insure the Directors and other officers of the 
consolidated entity. The liabilities insured are for costs and expenses that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings 
that may be brought against the officers in their capacity as officers of entities in the consolidated entity.

 AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE  
DECLARATION

A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required 
under Section 307C of the Corporations Act is included 
immediately following the Directors’ Report and forms part of the 
Directors’ Report.

15.  ROUNDING OFF
The company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations 
(Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 
and in accordance with that instrument, all financial information 
has been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless 
otherwise stated.

Signed in accordance with a resolution of the Directors.

Kevin Dundo 
Chairman

Perth, Western Australia 
24 September 2020

The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during 
the year and is satisfied that the provision of those services is 
compatible with the general standard of independence for 
auditors imposed by the Corporations Act and did not 
compromise the auditor independence requirements of the 
Corporations Act, for the following reasons:

 \ All non-audit services were subject to the corporate 

governance guidelines adopted by Red 5;

 \ Non-audit services have been reviewed by the audit 

committee to ensure that they do not impact the impartiality or 
objectivity of the auditor; and

 \ The non-audit services provided do not undermine the general 
principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 
110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did 
not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, 
acting in a management or decision making capacity, acting 
as an advocate for Red 5 or jointly sharing economic risks and 
rewards.

A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required 
under section 307C of the Corporations Act is included 
immediately following the Directors’ Report and forms part of the 
Directors’ Report.

 ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

13. 
The consolidated entity is subject to significant environmental 
regulation in respect to its mineral exploration activities.  These 
obligations are regulated under relevant government authorities 
within Australia and Philippines.  The consolidated entity is a party 
to exploration and development licences and has beneficial 
interests in Mineral Production Sharing Agreements.  Generally, 
these licences and agreements specify the environmental 
regulations applicable to exploration and mining operations in the 
respective jurisdictions. The consolidated entity aims to ensure 
that it complies with the identified regulatory requirements in each 
jurisdiction in which it operates.

Compliance with environmental obligations is monitored by the 
Board of Directors. No environmental breaches have been notified 
to the consolidated entity by any government agency during the 
year ended 30 June 2020.

Notes to the Consolidated FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2020

REPORTING ENTITY

1. 
Red 5 Limited (“parent entity”) is a for profit company limited by 
shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded 
on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Consolidated Financial 
Report for the year ended 30 June 2020 comprise the Company 
and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group” and 
individually as “Group entities”) and the Group’s interest in 
associates and jointly controlled entities. The Group is primarily 
involved in the exploration and mining of gold.

2. 

2.1 

BASIS OF PREPARATION

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

The consolidated financial statements are general purpose 
financial statements which have been prepared in accordance 
with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) adopted by the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the 
Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial statements 
comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) 
adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue 
by the Board of Directors on 24 September 2020.

2.2  GOING CONCERN

The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare the consolidated 
financial report on a going concern basis, which contemplates 
continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of 
assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of 
business. 

2.3  BASIS OF MEASUREMENT

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the 
historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments 
and certain other financial assets and liabilities which are required 
to be measured at fair value. Share based payments are measured 
at fair value. The methods used to measure fair values of share 
based payments are discussed further in the Note 4.12. 
Rehabilitation provisions are based on net present value and are 
discussed in Note 4.14.

2.4 

FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION 
CURRENCY

The consolidated financial report is presented in Australian 
dollars, which is the Group’s presentation currency. The functional 
currency of the Parent Company and the Australian subsidiaries in 
which the Group holds its Australian assets is Australian dollars, 
and the functional currency of the Company’s other foreign 
subsidiaries is Philippine pesos. 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.

2.5  USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires 
management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions 
that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets 
and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the 
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated 
financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are continually 
evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other 
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed 
to be reasonable under the circumstances. Uncertainty about 
these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that 
require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or 
liabilities affected in future periods.

In particular, the Group has identified a number of areas where 
significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are required. 
Further information on each of these areas and how they impact 
the various accounting policies are described with the associated 
accounting policy note within the related qualitative and 
quantitative note as described below.

2.6  ROUNDING OFF

The company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations 
(Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 
and in accordance with that instrument, all financial information 
has been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless 
otherwise stated.

3. 

REMOVAL OF PARENT ENTITY  
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Group has applied amendments to the Corporations Act 2001 
that remove the requirement for the Group to lodge parent entity 
financial statements. Parent entity financial statements have been 
replaced by the specific parent entity disclosures in Note 35.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

4. 
The accounting policies set out below have been applied 
consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements 
and have been applied consistently by the consolidated entity. 

4.1 

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial report incorporates the assets and 
liabilities of all entities controlled by the Company as at 30 June 
2020 and the results of all controlled entities for the year then 
ended. The Company and its controlled entities together are 
referred to in this financial report as the consolidated entity. The 
financial statements of controlled entities are prepared for the 
same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent 
accounting policies. Intra-group balances and transactions, and 
any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group 
transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial 
statements.

38

2020 Annual Report

 
 
Notes to the Consolidated FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2020 (cont.)

4. 

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING  
POLICIES (cont.)

Where control of an entity is obtained during a financial period, its 
results are included only from the date upon which control 
commences. Where control of an entity ceases during a financial 
period, its results are included for that part of the period during 
which control existed. Non-controlling interests in equity and 
results of the entities which are controlled by the consolidated 
entity are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial 
statements.

4.2 

FINANCE INCOME AND EXPENSES

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested. 
Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective 
interest rate method.  Finance expenses comprise interest 
expense on borrowings and amortisation of loan borrowing costs.  
Loan borrowing costs are amortised using the effective interest 
rate method.

4.3 

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment include land and buildings, plant 
and equipment, fixtures and fittings and assets under 
construction. All assets acquired are initially recorded at their cost 
of acquisition, being the fair value of the consideration provided 
plus incidental costs directly attributable to the acquisition. 

Land and buildings are measured at cost less accumulated 
depreciation on the buildings. Buildings are depreciated on a 
straight-line basis over the life of mine.

Plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated 
depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.  Items of 
plant and equipment are depreciated using a combination of units 
of production, straight line and diminishing value methods, 
commencing from the time they are installed and ready for use, or 
in respect of internally constructed assets, from the date the asset 
is completed and ready for use. Depreciation of the processing 
plant is based on life of mine. The expected useful lives of plant 
and equipment are between 3 and 13 years. Depreciation 
methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each 
reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.  

Fixtures and fittings include office equipment and computer 
hardware and is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their 
expected useful lives between 3 and 13 years.

4.4 

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets include mineral rights, asset retirement 
obligation and software. Intangible assets other than goodwill, are 
initially recorded at their cost of acquisition, being the fair value of 
the consideration provided plus incidental costs directly 
attributable to the acquisition. Capitalised software and asset 
retirement obligation are amortised on a straight-line basis over 
three years commencing when it is available for use. Mineral rights 
acquired is amortised over the life of mine.

4.5 

INVENTORIES

Gold in circuit, bullion on hand and ore stockpiles are physically 
measured or estimated and valued at the lower of cost and net 
realisable value.  Cost represents the weighted average cost and 
comprises direct material, labour, and an appropriate portion of 
fixed and variable production overhead expenditure on the basis 
of normal operating capacity, including depreciation and 
amortisation incurred in converting materials to finished products.

Inventories of consumable supplies and spare parts expected to 
be used in production are valued at the lower of cost and net 
realisable value.  Any provision for obsolescence or damage is 
determined by reference to specific stock items identified.  The 
carrying value of those items identified, if any, is written down to 
net realisable value.

4.6 

EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

Exploration and evaluation assets incurred are accumulated at 
cost in respect of each identifiable area of interest. Costs incurred 
in respect of generative, broad scale exploration activities are 
expensed in the period in which they are incurred, other than 
costs relating to acquisitions. Costs incurred for each area of 
interest where a resource or reserve, estimated in accordance 
with JORC guidelines has been identified, are capitalised. The 
costs are only carried forward to the extent they are expected to 
be recouped through the successful development of the area, or 
where further work is to be performed to provide additional 
information.

When production commences, the accumulated costs for the 
relevant area of interest will be amortised over the life of the area 
according to the rate of depletion of 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. Accumulated costs in relation to an 
abandoned area will be written off in full to the Statement of Profit 
or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income in the year in which the 
decision to abandon the area is made.

4.7  MINE DEVELOPMENT

Pre-Production

Costs incurred in the development of a mine before production 
commences are capitalised as part of the mine development 
costs.  All development costs incurred, including sale of products 
during the development phase prior to reaching commercial 
production capacity (production start date), within that area of 
interest are capitalised and carried at cost. Costs are amortised 
from the commencement of commercial production over the 
productive life of the project on a unit-of-production basis, based 
on reserves. 

Post-Production

Costs incurred in developing further areas of the mine are 
capitalised as part of the mine development costs and are 
amortised over the productive life of the project on a unit-of-
production basis, based on reserves. 

2020 Annual Report

Notes to the Consolidated FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2020 (cont.)

4. 

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING  
POLICIES (cont.) 

Deferred waste mining costs

Post-production stripping is generally considered to create two 
benefits, being either the production of inventory or improved 
access to the ore to be mined in the future. Where the benefits are 
realised in the form of inventory produced in the period, the 
production stripping costs are accounted for as part of the cost of 
producing those inventories. Where the benefits are realised in the 
form of improved access to ore to be mined in the future, the 
costs are recognised as a non-current asset, if the following 
criteria is met: 

 \ Future economic benefits (being improved access to the ore 

body) are probable;

 \ The component of the ore body for which access will be 

improved can be accurately identified; and

 \ The costs associated with the improved access can be reliably 

measured.

If all the criteria are not met, the production stripping costs are 
charged to profit or loss as they are incurred.

Depreciation of the stripping activity asset is determined on a unit 
of production basis over the life of the asset based on reserves for 
each area of interest.

4.8 

IMPAIRMENT

At each reporting date, the consolidated entity reviews and tests 
the carrying value of assets when events or changes in 
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be 
recoverable. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the 
consolidated entity makes a formal estimate of recoverable 
amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its 
recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is 
written down to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are 
recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other 
Comprehensive Income unless the asset has previously been 
revalued, in which case the impairment loss is recognised as a 
reversal to the extent of that previous revaluation with any excess 
recognised through the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other 
Comprehensive Income.

Calculation of recoverable amount

Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs of 
disposal and value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, 
unless it does not generate cash inflows that are largely 
independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in 
which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the 
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The estimated 
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a 
pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of 
the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

4.9 

INCOME TAX

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

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for 
the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at 
reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of 
previous years.  Deferred income tax is provided using the 
balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences at the 
balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities 
and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible 
temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax assets and 
unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable 
profit will be available against which the deductible temporary 
differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and 
unused tax losses can be utilised.  A deferred income tax asset is 
not recognised where the deferred income tax asset relating to 
the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial 
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a 
business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects 
neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at 
each balance date and reduced to the extent it is no longer 
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all 
or part of the deferred income tax to be utilised.  Deferred income 
tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are 
expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the 
liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been 
enacted at the balance date.  Income taxes relating to items 
recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in 
the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.

4.10  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Non-derivative financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments comprise investments in 
equity and debt securities, trade and other receivables, cash and 
cash equivalents, loans and borrowings and trade and other 
creditors. Non-derivative financial instruments are recognised 
initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. 
Subsequent to initial recognition, non-derivative financial 
instruments are measured as described below.

Trade and other receivables are carried at amortised cost. Trade 
receivables are non-interest bearing. Loans and borrowings are 
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, 
less any impairment losses. Liabilities for trade creditors and other 
amounts are carried at amortised cost. Trade payables are 
non-interest bearing and are normally settled on 30 day terms.

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash includes 
deposits at call which are readily convertible to cash on hand and 
which are used in the cash management function on a day to day 
basis, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING  
POLICIES (cont.) 
Derivative financial instruments

Derivatives financial instruments are recognised initially at fair 
value; any attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit 
and loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives 
are measured at fair-value.

Cashflow hedges

When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging 
instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the 
derivative is recognised in other comprehensive income and 
accumulated in the hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of 
changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised 
immediately in profit or loss. 

4.11  EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Provision for employee entitlements represents the amount which 
the consolidated entity has a present obligation to pay resulting 
from employees’ service provided up to the balance date. 

Liabilities arising in respect of employee benefits expected to be 
settled within twelve months of the balance date are measured at 
their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are 
expected to be paid when the liability is settled. All other 
employee benefit liabilities are measured at the present value of 
the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of 
services provided by employees up to the balance date. 
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution 
superannuation funds are recognised as an expense in the 
Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as 
incurred.

4.12  SHARE BASED PAYMENTS

The consolidated entity may provide benefits to employees 
(including Directors) and other parties as necessary in the form of 
share-based payments, 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 they are 
granted.  The value is determined using a Monte Carlo model or 
equivalent valuation technique. The cost of equity settled 
transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding 
increase in equity, over the period in which the performance 
conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant 
employees become fully entitled to the award (“vesting date”).

The cumulative expense recognised for equity settled transactions 
at each reporting date until vesting date reflects the extent to 
which the vesting period has expired and the number of awards 
that, in the opinion of the Directors, will ultimately vest.

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 a 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.

4.13  FOREIGN CURRENCY

Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign 
exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary 
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the 
statement of financial position date are translated to Australian 
dollars at the foreign exchange rate ruling at that date. Foreign 
exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the 
Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. 
Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of 
historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the 
exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets 
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are stated at 
fair value are translated to Australian dollars at foreign exchange 
rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined.

The following significant exchange rates have been applied:

Financial statements of foreign operations
Each entity in the consolidated entity determines its functional 
currency, being the currency of the primary economic environment 
in which the entity operates, reflecting the underlying transactions, 
events and conditions that are relevant to the entity. The functional 
currency of the Australian entities is the Australian dollar and the 
functional currency of the Philippine entities is the Philippine Peso. 
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill 
and fair value adjustments arising on consolidation, are translated 
from the entity’s functional currency to the consolidated entity’s 
presentation currency of Australian dollars at foreign exchange 
rates ruling at reporting date. The revenues and expenses of 
foreign operations are translated to Australian dollars at the 
exchange rates approximating the exchange rates ruling at the 
date of the transactions. Foreign exchange differences arising on 
translation are recognised directly in a separate component of 
equity.

2020 Annual Report

Notes to the Consolidated FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2020 (cont.)

Any contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the date 
of acquisition. If an obligation to pay contingent consideration that 
meets the definition of a financial instrument is classified as 
equity, then it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for 
within equity. Otherwise, other contingent consideration is 
remeasured at fair value at each reporting date and subsequent 
changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are 
recognised in profit or loss.

4.18  ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND  

JUDGEMENTS

The selection and disclosure of the consolidated entity’s critical 
accounting policies and estimates and the application of these 
policies, estimates and judgements is the responsibility of the 
Board of Directors. The estimates and judgements that may have 
a significant impact on the carrying amount of assets and 
liabilities are discussed below.

Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date, the group makes an assessment for 
impairment of all assets if there has been an impairment indicator 
by evaluating conditions specific to the Group and to the 
particular assets that may lead to impairment. The recoverable 
amount of Property, Plant & Equipment and Mine Development 
Expenditure relating to the Siana gold project is determined as the 
higher of value-in-use and fair value less costs of disposal.  
Value-in-use is generally determined as the present value of the 
estimated future cash flows. Present values are determined using 
a risk adjusted discount rate appropriate to the risks inherent in 
the asset.

Given the nature of the Group’s mining activities, future changes in 
assumptions upon which these estimates are based may give rise 
to a material adjustment to the carrying value. This could lead to 
the recognition of impairment losses in the future. The inter-
relationship of the significant assumptions upon which estimated 
future cash flows are based is such that it is impracticable to 
disclose the extent of the possible effects of a change in a key 
assumption in isolation.

Future cash flow estimates are based on expected production 
volumes and grades, gold price and exchange rate estimates, 
budgeted and forecasted development levels and operating costs. 
Management is required to make these estimates and 
assumptions which are subject to risk and uncertainty. As a result, 
there is a possibility that changes in circumstances may alter 
these projections, which could impact on the recoverable amount 
of the assets. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying 
value of the assets may be impaired.  Impairment losses are 
recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss unless the asset has 
previously been revalued.

4. 

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING  
POLICIES (cont.) 

4.14  REHABILITATION COSTS

Full provision for rehabilitation costs is made based on the net 
present value of the estimated cost of restoring the environmental 
disturbance that has occurred up to the balance date. Increases 
due to additional environmental disturbances are capitalised and 
amortised over the remaining lives of the operations where they 
have future economic benefit, else they are expensed. These 
increases are accounted for on a net present value basis.

Annual increases in the provision relating to the change in the net 
present value of the provision and inflationary increases are 
accounted for in the Statement of Profit and Loss as an interest 
expense. The estimated costs of rehabilitation are reviewed 
annually and adjusted as appropriate for changes in legislation, 
technology or other circumstances.

4.15  PROVISIONS

A provision is recognised in the Statement of Financial Position 
when the consolidated entity has a present legal or constructive 
obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an 
outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the 
obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected 
future cash flows at the pre-tax rate that reflects current market 
assessments of the time value of money and where appropriate, 
the risk specific to the liability.

4.16  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net operating 
results after income tax attributable to members of the parent 
entity, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary 
shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares 
outstanding during the financial year.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the 
determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the 
after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs 
associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the 
weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued 
for no consideration in relation to potential ordinary shares.

4.17  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

The Group accounts for business combinations using the 
acquisition method when control is transferred to the Group. The 
consideration transferred in the acquisition is generally measured 
at fair value, as are the identifiable net assets acquired. Any 
goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment. Any gain on 
a bargain purchase is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 
Transaction costs are expensed as incurred, except if related to 
the issue of debt or equity securities.

The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to 
the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are 
generally recognised in profit or loss.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING  
POLICIES (cont.) 

Rehabilitation and mine closure provisions

As set out in note 4.14, this provision represents the discounted 
value of the present obligation to restore, dismantle and 
rehabilitate certain items of property, plant and equipment. The 
discounted value reflects a combination of the Group’s 
assessment of the costs of performing the work required, the 
timing of the cash flows and the discount rate.

Share based payment transactions

The Group measures the cost of equity settled transactions with 
employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments 
at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined 
by using Monte Carlo. This estimate also requires determination of 
the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the 
expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and 
making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models 
used for estimating fair value for share-based payment 
transactions are disclosed in, as discussed in note 31.

Production start date

The Group assesses the stage of each mine under development/
construction to determine when a mine moves into the production 
phase, this being when the mine is substantially complete and 
ready for its intended use. The criteria used to assess the start 
date are determined based on the unique nature of each mine 
development/construction project, such as the complexity of the 
project and its location. The Group considers various relevant 
criteria to assess when the production phase is considered to 
have commenced. 

Some of the criteria used to identify the production start date 
include, but are not limited to:

 \ Level of capital expenditure incurred compared with the 

original construction cost estimate

 \ Completion of a reasonable period of testing of the mine plant 

and equipment

 \ Ability to produce metal in saleable form (within specifications)

 \ Ability to sustain ongoing production of metal

When a mine development project moves into the production 
phase, the capitalisation of certain mine development costs 
ceases and costs are either regarded as forming part of the cost 
of inventory or expensed, except for costs that qualify for 
capitalisation relating to mining asset additions or improvements, 
underground mine development or mineable reserve 
development. It is also at this point that depreciation/amortisation 
commences.

Commercial production start date for King of the Hills Gold 
Project was achieved on 1 December 2018.

A change in any, or a combination, of the three key assumptions 
used to determine the provisions could have a material impact to 
the carrying value of the provision. In the case of provisions for 
assets which remain in use, adjustments to the carrying value of 
the provision are offset by a change in the carrying value of the 
related asset. Where the provisions are for assets no longer in use 
or for obligations arising from the production process, the 
adjustment is reflected directly in the Statement of Profit or Loss.

Reserves and resources

The Group determines and reports ore reserves under the 
Australian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral 
Resources and Ore Reserves Code (“JORC”) as revised 
December 2012 JORC for underground reserves and the JORC 
2012 edition for open pit reserves. The JORC code requires the 
use of reasonable investment assumptions to calculate reserves. 
Reserves determined in this way are taken into account in the 
calculation of depreciation of mining plant and equipment (refer to 
4.3), amortisation of capitalised development expenditure (refer to 
note 4.7), and impairment relating to these assets.

Changes in reported reserves may affect the Group’s financial 
results and financial position in a number of ways, including:

 \ Asset carrying values may be impacted due to changes in 

estimated cash flows;

 \ Depreciation and amortisation charged in the statement of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income may change 
where such charges are calculated using the units of 
production basis.

 \ Deferred waste amortisation, based on estimates of reserve to 

waste ratios.

 \ Decommissioning, site restoration and environmental 

provisions may change where changes in estimated reserves 
alter expectations about the timing or cost of these activities.

Going Concern

A key assumption underlying the preparation of the financial 
statements is that the Group will continue as a going concern. An 
entity is a going concern when it is considered to be able to pay 
its debts as and when they are due, and to continue in operation 
without any intention or necessity to liquidate or otherwise wind 
up its operations.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING  
POLICIES (cont.) 

Capitalised exploration and evaluation assets

The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation 
expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including 
whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if 
not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and 
evaluation asset through sale.

Factors which could impact the future recoverability include the 
level of proved, probable and inferred mineral resources, future 
technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, 
future legal changes (including changes to environmental 
restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. To the 
extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is 
determined not to be recoverable in the future, this will reduce 
profits and net assets in the period in which this determination is 
made. In addition, exploration and evaluation expenditure is 
capitalised if activities in the area of interest have not yet reached 
a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence 
or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. To the extent 
that it is determined in the future that this capitalised expenditure 
should be written off, this will reduce profits and net assets in the 
period in which this determination is made.

4.19  NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS AND  

INTERPRETATIONS

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been 
published that are not effective for the 30 June 2020 reporting 
period. The Group has elected not to early adopt any of the new 
standards or interpretations. 

Changes in significant accounting policies

AASB 16 – Leases (effective from 1 July 2019)

The Group has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019 using the 
modified retrospective method of adoption. The Group has not 
restated comparatives for the reporting period as permitted under 
the specific transitional provisions in the standard. The 
reclassifications and the adjustments arising from the new leasing 
rules are therefore recognised in the opening balance sheet on 1 
July 2019. 

On adoption, the Group recognised lease liabilities in relation to 
leases which had previously been classified as ‘operating leases’ 
under the principles of AASB 117 Leases. These liabilities were 
measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, 
discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate as of 1 
July 2019. The weighted average lessee’s incremental borrowing 
rate applied to the lease liabilities on 1 July 2019 was 6.0 percent.

The impact on the statement of financial position as at 1 July 2019 
on adoption of AASB 16 are noted below:

AASB 16 Leases – Summary of new accounting policy

The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at 
inception of the contract. The Group recognises a right-of-use 
asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease 
arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term 
leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) 
and leases of low value assets. For these leases, the Group 
recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a 
straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another 
systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in 
which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed. 

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the 
lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, 
discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate 
cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental 
borrowing rate. 

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on 
a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present 
value of the following lease payments: 

 \ fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less 

any lease incentives receivable 

 \ variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate 

 \ amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual 

value guarantees 

 \ the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is 

reasonably certain to exercise that option, and 

 \ payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease 

term reflects the lessee exercising that option.

The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the 
carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the 
effective interest method) and by reducing the carrying amount to 
reflect the lease payments made. 

 \ Right-of-use assets were measured at an amount equal to the 

lease liabilities.

 \ For leases that were classified as finance leases under the 

previous standard (AASB 117 Leases) there were no changes 
to the carrying amounts of the right-of-use assets and lease 
liabilities.

44

2020 Annual Report

 
 
Notes to the Consolidated FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2020 (cont.)

As a practical expedient, AASB 16 permits a lessee not to 
separate non-lease components, and instead account for any 
lease and associated non-lease components as a single 
arrangement. The Group has not used this practical expedient. 
For a contracts that contain a lease component and one or more 
additional lease or non-lease components, the Group allocates 
the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the 
basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and 
the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.

Leases accounting policy applicable up to 30 June 2019

Assets held under finance leases are recognised as a finance 
lease obligation at the present value of the minimum lease 
payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance 
charges and reduction of the lease obligation to achieve a 
constant rate of interest on the remaining liability. Finance charges 
are recorded as a finance expense to profit and loss, unless they 
are attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are 
capitalised. 

4. 

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING  
POLICIES (cont.) 

The Group remeasures the lease liability (and makes a 
corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset) 
whenever: 

 \ The lease term has changed or there is a significant event or 

change in circumstances resulting in a change in the 
assessment of exercise of a purchase option, in which case 
the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised 
lease payments using a revised discount rate. 

 \ The lease payments change due to changes in an index or rate 
or a change in expected payment under a guaranteed residual 
value, in which case the lease liability is remeasured by 
discounting the revised lease payments using an unchanged 
discount rate (unless the lease payments change is due to a 
change in a floating interest rate, in which case a revised 
discount rate is used). 

 \ A lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not 
accounted for as a separate lease, in which case the lease 
liability is remeasured based on the lease term of the modified 
lease by discounting the revised lease payments using a 
revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification. 

The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the 
corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before 
the commencement day, less any lease incentives received and 
any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost 
less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Whenever the Group incurs an obligation for costs to dismantle 
and remove a leased asset, restore the site on which it is located 
or restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the 
terms and conditions of the lease, a provision is recognised and 
measured under AASB 137. To the extent that the costs relate to a 
right-of-use asset, the costs are included in the related right-of-
use asset, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories. 

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of 
lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. If a lease 
transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the 
right-of-use asset reflects that the Group expects to exercise a 
purchase option, the related right-of-use asset is depreciated over 
the useful life of the underlying asset. The depreciation starts at 
the commencement date of the lease. 

The Group applies AASB 136 to determine whether a right-of-use 
asset is impaired and accounts for any identified impairment loss 
as described in the ‘Property, Plant and Equipment’ policy (as 
outlined in the financial report for the annual reporting period). 

Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not 
included in the measurement the lease liability and the right-of-
use asset. The related payments are recognised as an expense in 
the period in which the event or condition that triggers those 
payments occurs and are included in profit or loss.

Some of the potential deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses and deductable temporary differences have not been brought to 
account at 30 June 2020. The Directors do not believe it is appropriate to regard realisation of the full deferred tax assets at this point in 
time because (i) it is not probable that future Australian taxable profits will be available against which the Group can use all the benefits 
there from or (ii) uncertainty with respect to recoverability in the Philippines.

(i)  During August 2019 the company entered into working capital facility agreement of $20.0 million with Macquarie Bank Limited at a rate of 

the month-end BBSY 1-month rate plus 4.5%. Interest on the loan is payable monthly in arrears during the term of the loan. Borrowing costs 
of $0.481 million to secure this funding have been offset against the principal borrowings amount and are amortised using the effective 
interest rate method. The interest expense for the period was $0.862 million.

The working capital facility is secured over the Company’s Australian assets and contains financial covenants customary for loans of this 
type. A breach of covenant may require the Company to repay the facility earlier than indicated in the above table. There have been no 
breaches in the financial covenants of any loans and borrowings in the current or prior period.  

(ii)  In the prior financial year , the Company entered into a gold loan facility of 5,015 gold ounces with a Malaysian-based fund, Asian 

Investment Management Services Ltd (AIMSL). The facility had a 12-month term repayable at maturity and attracts quarterly interest gold 
payments secured by a security interest in the Company’s operating subsidiary companies on a limited recourse basis. The effective 
interest rate of the gold loan facility was 16.1% which was derived by the movement in the forward gold price at inception. The subsequent 
fair value measurement of the facility is dependent on forward commodity prices. The loan was classified at amortised cost and the 
embedded derivative relating to the forward prices of the loan has been recorded at fair value through profit or loss. On 22 August 2019 the 
principle and final interest obligation was repaid.

(a)  Rehabilitation provision 

Mining activities within the Group are required by law to undertake rehabilitation as part of their ongoing operations. The rehabilitation 
provision represents the present value of rehabilitation costs, which are expected to be incurred when the rehabilitation work following the 
cessation of operations is expected to be completed. This provision has been created based on the Group’s internal estimates which are 
reviewed over time as the operation develops. The accretion of the effect of discounting on the provision is recognised as a financial 
expense. In addition, the rehabilitation obligation has been recognised as an intangible asset and has been amortised over the life of the 
mines on units of production basis.

(b)  MCC final acquisition provision:  

Provision for expected tax liability arising from the acquisition of Merrill Crow Corporation’s (MCC) holding of Siana Gold Project in 2010.

(c)  Documentary stamp duty provision:  

Provision for documentary stamp duty on cash advances to Philippines subsidiaries.

LEASE LIABILITIES 

18 
Lease liabilities include electricity and gas power plants,  vehicles and equipment. Lease liabilities expire between November 2020 and 
August 2022 and bear interest between 4.5% and 7.5%. Ownership of the vehicles and equipment will revert to the Company at the end 
of the leases at no additional cost. The Company’s obligations under the leases are secured by the lessor’s title to the leased assets. 
The fair value of the lease liabilities approximates their carrying values.

The following schedule outlines the total minimum loan payments due for the lease obligations over their remaining term:

EARNINGS PER SHARE

23 
Earnings per share (“EPS”) is the amount of post-tax profit or loss attributable to each share. The Group presents basic and diluted EPS 
data for ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by 
the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. 

Diluted EPS takes into account the dilutive effect of all potential ordinary shares, being unlisted employee performance and service 
rights on issue.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

OVERVIEW

This note presents information about the consolidated entity’s exposure to credit, liquidity and market risks, their objectives, policies 
and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. Management 
monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the consolidated entity through regular reviews of the risks.

CREDIT RISK

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the consolidated entity if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its 
contractual obligations and arises principally from the consolidated entity receivables from customers and investment securities.  For 
the company it arises from receivables due from subsidiaries.

Presently, the consolidated entity undertakes exploration, mining and gold production activities.

The Group sells gold to two customers in Australia and has managed its exposure to credit risk by analysing the creditworthiness of the 
customer.

Cash and cash equivalents

The consolidated entity limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have an 
acceptable credit rating.  Any excess cash and cash equivalents are maintained in short term deposits with more than one major 
Australian commercial bank at interest rates maturing over 30 to 120 day rolling periods.

Trade and other receivables

The Group’s trade and other receivables relate mainly to gold sales and sales tax refunds. The Group has determined that its exposure 
to trade receivable credit risk is low, given that it sells gold bullion to a single reputable refiner with short contractual payment terms and 
sales tax refunds are due from Government tax bodies namely the Australian Tax Office and the Philippines Bureau of Internal Revenue.

Exposure to credit risk

The carrying amount of the consolidated entity’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to 
credit risk at the reporting date was:

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

The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves from funds raised in the market and by 
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows.

MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the 
consolidated entity income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. Changes in the market gold price will affect the 
derivative valuation at each reporting date.  The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures 
within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The consolidated entity enters into derivative financial instruments to hedge 
such transactions.

Hedge accounting

The Group’s risk management policy is to hedge between 25 to 70% of gold sales in local currency over a rolling 24-month period.

At 30 June 2020 the Group held gold forward contracts to hedge the exposure of future gold sales. The following table sets out the 
current hedge position and fair value as at 30 June 2020:

price by 10 per cent while holding all other variables constant, is shown in the following table:

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW (cont.)

CURRENCY RISK

The consolidated entity is exposed to currency risk on investments and purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the 
respective functional currencies of the subsidiaries within the consolidated entity being Australian Dollar (A$) and Philippine Pesos. The 
currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are United States Dollars (US$).

The consolidated entity has not entered into any derivative financial instruments to hedge such transactions. The Company’s 
investments in its subsidiaries are not hedged as those currency positions are considered to be long term in nature.

Exposure to currency risk

The consolidated entity’s exposure to US$ foreign currency risk at balance date was as follows, based on notional amounts:

Trade debtors

Trade payables

A 10 per cent strengthening of the Australian dollar against the United States dollar on the 30 June 2020 would have increased/
(decreased) profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. The analysis

A 10 per cent weakening of the Australian dollar against the above currencies at 30 June 2020 would have had the equal but opposite 
effect on the above currencies to the amounts shown above, on the basis that all other variables remain constant.

INTEREST RATE RISK

The consolidated entity is exposed to interest rate risk, primarily on its cash and cash equivalents which is the risk that a financial 
instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in the market interest rates on interest-bearing financial instruments. The 
consolidated entity does not use derivatives to mitigate these exposures. 

The consolidated entity adopts a policy of ensuring that as far as possible it maintains excess cash and cash equivalents in short term 
deposits with more than one counterparty at interest rates maturing over 90 day rolling periods.  At the reporting date the interest rate 
profile of the consolidated entity and the Company’s interest-bearing financial instruments were:

An increase of 100 basis points or decrease of 50 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased/(decreased) 
equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that in 2020 an average of 0.5% interest rate is in place 
across all cash balances and that all other variables remain constant. In 2019 the analysis assumed an increase or decrease of 100

(108)

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities equates their fair value.  

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The consolidated entity’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so as to maintain a 
strong capital base sufficient to maintain future exploration and development of its projects.  In order to maintain or adjust the capital 
structure, the consolidated entity may return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

Risk management is facilitated by regular monitoring and reporting by the board and key management personnel.

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

33 
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities carried at amortised cost approximate their carrying value.

The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique. 

Level 1 -  Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 -  Valuation techniques for which the lowest - level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly 

observable

Level 3 -  Valuation techniques for which the lowest - level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

The following financial assets and liabilities are classified as level 2:

 \ Derivative Financial Instruments, liability of $33.375 million (30 June 2019: liability of $5.311 million);

 \ Embedded derivative on gold loan, nil (30 June 2019: $1.646 million).

34  DEED OF CROSS GUARANTEE
Pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Wholly owned Companies) Instrument 2016/785 the wholly owned subsidiaries listed below are relieved 
from the Corporations Act 2001 requirements for preparation, audit and lodgement of financial reports, and Directors’ reports.

It is a condition of the Instrument that the Company and each of the subsidiaries enter into a Deed of Cross Guarantee. The effect of the 
Deed is that the Company guarantees to each creditor payment in full of any debt in the event of winding up of any of the subsidiaries 
under certain provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. If a winding up occurs under other provisions of the Act, the Company will only 
be liable in the event that after six months any creditor has not been paid in full. The subsidiaries have also given similar guarantees in 
the event that the Company is wound up.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (cont.)

Sales Revenue ($200.332 million) 

Refer to Note 5(a) to the Financial Report 

The key audit matter 

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Existence and accuracy of sales revenue was 
considered to be a key audit matter. Gold sales 
revenue from its Darlot and King of the Hills 
(KOTH) operations was the most significant item 
in the consolidated statement of profit or loss 
($200.332m). 

We focused on the following judgements the 
Group applied in determining sales revenue: 

•  Assessing the revenue recognised against 

the requirements of AASB 15 Revenue form 
Contracts with Customers; 

•  The application of hedge accounting for 

gold forward contracts in accordance with 
AASB 9 Financial Instruments. The Group 
engages external experts to prepare hedge 
documentation and determine hedge 
ineffectiveness. 

Our procedures included: 

•  For gold sales recognised during the year we obtained the 
sales invoice and compared the ounces of gold sold to 
third party statements from the refinery and cash 
received in the bank; 

•  For a sample of sales recorded close to year end, we 

tested against the recognition criteria of AASB 15 checking 
control had passed to the customer; 

•  We compared realised hedging gains and losses to 

counterparty statements for gold forward hedges during 
the year; 

• 

For gold forward hedges not realised as at 30 June 2020, 
we checked open positions to counterparty statements, 
reassessed the fair value of the open positions on a 
sample basis and checked the hedge effectiveness; 

•  We assessed the scope, objectivity and competence of the 
Group’s external experts responsible for preparation of 
hedge documentation and effectiveness assessment.  

•  Working with our valuation specialists, we evaluated the 

hedge documentation and hedge accounting for 
compliance with AASB 9 Financial Instruments. 

Property, Plant and Equipment ($90.517m), Mine Development ($27.715m) and Exploration and Evaluation 
Assets ($32.361m) 

Refer to Notes 10, 12 & 13 to the Financial Report 

The key audit matter 

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Existence, accuracy and valuation of expenditure 
capitalised as an asset as part of the Group’s 
mining operations was considered to be a key 
audit matter. Property, Plant and Equipment 
($90.517m), Mine Development ($27.715m) and 
Exploration and Evaluation Assets ($32.361m), 
together represent 43.9% of total assets. 

The Group applied judgement in the 
identification and allocation of cost between 
operating expenditure and capitalised 
expenditure. The risks we focused on included: 

Our procedures included: 

•  Test of controls and inputs relating to the authorisation 

and accuracy of the recording, classification and payment 
of expenditure; 

•  Assessment of the allocation of costs between operating 
expenditure (including inventory stockpiles), capital 
expenditure and exploration & evaluation assets by 
inspecting documentation on a sample basis and assessing 
the nature of the underlying activity; 

• 

For a sample of supplier and contractor invoices we 
checked the timing and nature of recorded expenditure 
against the details of the service description on the invoice 
or contract;

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (cont.)

The key audit matter 

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

•  The existence of capital expenditure;  

•  The capital nature of expenditure, 

particularly the determination of capitalised 
Exploration and Evaluation assets in 
accordance with the group’s accounting 
policies and the criteria in AASB 6 
Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral 
Resources. 

•  Challenging the Group’s assertion as to the presence of no 
impairment or reversal indicators. This included assessing 
the status of the Siana mine, financial performance 
against forecasts and comparing forecast prices to 
published views of market commentators on future 
trends; 

•  Evaluating the Group’s accounting policy to recognise 
Exploration and Evaluation Assets using the criteria in 
AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral 
Resources. This included assessment of the Group’s 
determination of its areas of interest for consistency with 
the definition in the standard; 

Other Information 

Other Information is financial and non-financial information in Red 5 Limited’s annual reporting which is provided 
in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor’s Report. The Directors are responsible for the Other 
Information. 

The Other Information we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report was the Directors' Report, Resources 
and Reserves Statement and Corporate Directory. The Chairman’s Review, Managing Director’s Report, Tenement 
Schedule and Statement of Shareholders are expected to be made available to us after the date of the Auditor's 
Report. 

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, we do not express an 
audit opinion or 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. In doing 
so, we 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. 

We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other Information, and 
based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we obtained prior to the date of this 
Auditor’s Report we have nothing to report. 

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

• 

• 

• 

preparing the Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting 
Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 

implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that gives a true 
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error 

assessing the Group and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether the use of the going 
concern basis of accounting is appropriate. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going 
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the Group 
and Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (cont.)

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report 

Our objective is: 

• 

• 

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 Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. 

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They 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 the Financial 
Report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report is located at the Auditing and 
Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf.  
This description forms part of our Auditor’s Report.
