Renascor has responded to these challenges by
maintaining the steady advancement of our flagship
Siviour Graphite and Battery Anode Material Project,
while concurrently creating additional opportunities
to build on our shareholder’s investments through
the development of near-term discovery prospects
in minerals with favourable commodity price
outlooks.
At Siviour, we have achieved several breakthroughs
that confirm the project as among the leading
graphite developments globally, with strong
prospects to benefit for the growing lithium-ion
battery market and advance into a profitable long-
term producer of high quality graphite products.
From the Chairman
Dear Shareholder,
I am very pleased to present
Renascor’s annual report
for the twelve-month period
ending 30 June 2020.
The past year has presented
an unprecedented set of
challenges, with COVID-19
having wide-ranging
impacts on nearly all
aspects of society. For
ASX-listed exploration and
development companies
like Renascor, this has
required both prudence
and flexibility in light of
changes in operational and
market norms.
4
Key achievements have included:
• Siviour Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS). The
Siviour DFS confirms Siviour’s potential as a long-
life graphite concentrate project with amongst the
lowest operating costs of any graphite development
globally. Whilst graphite as a mineral occurrence
is relatively common, the Siviour DFS establishes
Siviour as particularly unique as a low cost source
of high quality graphite located in Australia, amongst
the most favourable mining jurisdictions in the
world.
• Siviour Mineral Ore Reserve. Work undertook during
the year resulted in an updated Mineral Reserve
estimate for Siviour that confirms it as the second
largest Proven Reserve of graphite in the world and
the largest Ore Reserve of graphite outside of Africa.
• Eco-Friendly Battery Anode Material. Using a
purification technology that avoids the use of
potentially harmful hydrofluoric acid, Renascor
has successfully produced battery-grade anode
material from Siviour graphite. The use of
this more ecologically-friendly method firmly
establishes Renascor’s commitment to responsible
environmental management of resources.
• Battery Anode Material Study. Following the DFS,
Renascor completed a study assessing an integrated
battery anode material operation to produce Purified
Spherical Graphite for lithium-ion battery anodes. By
leveraging off the comparatively low cost of Siviour
graphite concentrates and co-locating a downstream
anode material manufacturing operation in South
Australia, the study confirms the globally competitive
nature of the project.
The steady progress Renascor achieved at Siviour
during the past year puts Renascor in an excellent
position to take the project through development
and create the first vertically integrated battery
anode material operation outside of China.
Significantly, the focus on the production of
Purified Spherical Graphite aligns the project with
potential offtake partners in the growing lithium-ion
battery market.
In addition to our progress at Siviour, Renascor
also advanced earlier-stage exploration prospects,
including our Carnding Gold Project in South
Australia’s Central Gawler Craton. Carnding, which
we acquired in 2012, is part of a pipeline of highly
prospective early-stage exploration projects.
At Carnding, we identified multiple prospects for
near-surface, high-grade gold. As the gold price has
risen considerably, the Central Gawler region has
seen an increasing focus on gold, and Renascor
is pleased to offer shareholders the potential to
benefit from this renewed interest through
near-term discovery opportunities in projects
like Carnding.
We are particularly grateful of the support
offered by shareholders during the year,
notwithstanding difficult market conditions and
subdued equity prices.
With the work undertaken last year, together with
work programs for the current year including a
focus on the development of Siviour, as well as gold
exploration, we believe there is strong potential for
a re-rating of Renascor by the equity markets.
On behalf of the Board and my fellow shareholders,
I thank our Managing Director David Christensen
and the entire Renascor team for their dedicated
work during an exciting year. I also offer my
sincere thanks to you, our shareholders, for your
continued support.
Yours sincerely,
Dick Keevers, Chairman

Review of operations
Company overview
Renascor Resources Limited (Renascor) is an ASX-listed,
Australian-based company focused on the development
of economically viable deposits containing graphite,
gold, copper and other minerals.
Renascor’s activities during the past financial year were
primarily directed at developing the Siviour Graphite
and Battery Anode Material Project (Siviour).
Significant activities undertaken on the Siviour Project
during the year included:
• The completion of the Siviour Definitive Feasibility
Study (DFS) in November. The DFS positively
confirmed Siviour’s potential as a low cost, long-
life graphite project that can achieve consistently
attractive profit margins.
• Advancement of an integrated battery anode
material operation in South Australia to produce
Purified Spherical Graphite (PSG) for lithium-ion
batteries.
• In December 2019 the company entered into a
joint development agreement with battery anode
company Sicona Battery Technologies (Sicona) to
jointly develop battery anode material.
Other projects
In addition to its activities at the Siviour Graphite
Project, Renascor has maintained a strong exploration
portfolio, identifying and maintaining a strong pipeline
of targets for development of gold, copper, nickel,
cobalt and other mineral assets. To limit non-essential
exposure, Renascor has also relinquished tenements
considered less prospective.
Corporate and financial
For the year ended 30 June 2020 the loss for the Group
after providing for income tax amounted to $1,072,575
(2019: $1,321,558). This included an impairment
write down of capitalised exploration and evaluation
expenditure of $274,109 (2019: $387,751).
To support the Group’s exploration activities and
developing the Siviour Graphite Project, the Company
raised $1,796,468 (after capital raising costs) via
placements to professional and sophisticated investors
and a Share Purchase Plan (“SPP”) during the year.
On 12 August 2019 the Company announced the results
of purification tests using a more eco-friendly caustic
roasting technique that successfully produced battery-
grade spherical graphite from Siviour. The caustic
roasting method offers environmental advantages over
the traditional hydrofluoric purification technique.
On 11 November 2019 the Company announced the
completion of the DFS. The Siviour DFS confirmed
Siviour’s potential as a low cost, long-life graphite
project that can achieve consistently attractive profit
margins.
6
Directors’ Report 30 June 2020
On 18 December 2019 the Company announced that
it had entered into a non-binding memorandum of
understanding (MOU) with Sicona to jointly develop
battery anode material. Under the terms of the
MOU, the Company and Sicona will collaborate in the
development of the next-generation anode material by
combining Renascor’s expertise in the production of
purified spherical graphite and Sicona’s expertise in the
development of silicon-based anodes.
On 3 March 2020 the company received a Letter of
Support from the Australian government Export Finance
Agency (EFA), the official Export Credit Agency (ECA) of
the Australian Government. The EFA has conducted a
preliminary review of the Siviour Project, and subject to
further due diligence it will consider providing finance.
ECA cover typically supports favourable debt financing
terms, including competitive margin and increased
loan tenor.
On 24 June 2020 the company announced that that it
has engaged a European investment bank, ABG Sundal
Collier to manage the proposed debt financing for the
integrated Siviour Graphite and Battery Anode Material
Project.
Significant changes in the state of affairs
During the financial year Renascor took steps to
manage the impact of COVID-19, focusing on the health
of its staff and the communities in which the Company
works, while seeking to preserve shareholder funds
and limit the financial impact on Renascor and its
stakeholders. Work programs were designed to permit
them to continue with minor disruptions due to travel
restrictions and shipping delays. Where practicable,
laboratory and desktop activities were accelerated to
ensure delays would be minimised when more normal
operations can be undertaken.
There were no other significant changes in the state of
affairs of the Group during the financial year.
Matters subsequent to the end of the
financial year
On 1 July 2020 the company announced the results of
a study assessing an integrated battery anode material
operation in South Australia to produce PSG for
lithium-ion battery anodes. The study confirms that the
integration of a PSG processing operation with Siviour
creates significant added value and aligns the company
with end-users of PSG seeking supply chain security
through the world’s first integrated, in-country mine
and battery anode material operation outside of China.
On 14 July 2020 the company announced the results
of independent purification tests that confirmed
that Siviour is able to produce PSG through a more
environmentally-friendly caustic roast purification
method.
On 21 July 2020 an updated Mineral Ore Reserve
estimate was announced confirming Siviour as the
largest reported total Ore Reserve outside of Africa,
and the second largest reported Proven Reserve of
graphite in the world. This estimate provides additional
confidence in the size and quality of the Siviour
deposit as a consistent source of high-quality graphite
supporting a mine life of over 40 years.
On 4 August 2020 the Company announced high-grade,
shallow gold drill intercepts at the Carnding Project in
South Australia’s Central Gawler Craton. The results
include over 16 g/t Au at the Soyuz prospect.
On 10 August 2020 the Company announced an
expansion to the Carding Project, with the approval
of an exploration licence application over an area
immediately north of the Soyuz propsect.
On 12 August 2020 independent qualification tests
undertaken by a German graphite specialist confirmed
that Siviour PSG meets product specifications required
for integration of PSG into lithium-ion battery anodes.
On 28 August 2020 Renascor confirmed multiple
untested, shallow gold targets along-strike from
the company’s Soyuz (Carnding) prospect in South
Australia’s Gawler Craton.
On 18 September 2020 the company announced that
it has received firm commitments from professional
and sophisticated investors to raise approximately $3.6
million (before expenses) at 1.1cents per share with one
attaching option for every two shares issued. The funds
raised will be used to advance the Siviour Project and
Carnding Gold Project.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since
30 June 2020 that has significantly affected, or may
significantly affect the Group’s operations, the results
of those operations, or the Group’s state of affairs in
future financial years.
Likely developments and expected results of
operations
The Company will continue activities in the exploration,
evaluation, development and acquisition of viable
projects with the objective of establishing a significant
production business.
Environmental regulation and performance
The directors have put in place strategies and
procedures to ensure that the Group manages its
compliance with environmental regulations. The
directors are not aware of any breaches of any
applicable environmental regulations.

Remuneration report (audited)
The remuneration report details the key management
personnel remuneration arrangements for the
Group, in accordance with the requirements of the
Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations.
The Board is responsible for managing:
Their objective is to ensure that remuneration policies
and structures are fair and competitive and aligned with
the long-term interests of the Group.
Key management personnel are those persons having
authority and responsibility for planning, directing
and controlling the activities of the entity, directly or
indirectly, including all directors.
The remuneration report is set out under the following
main headings:
• Principles used to determine the nature and amount
of remuneration
• Details of remuneration
• Service agreements
• Share-based compensation
• Additional information
• Additional disclosures relating to key management
personnel
Principles used to determine the nature and
amount of remuneration
The objective of the Group’s executive reward
framework is to ensure reward for performance is
competitive and appropriate for the results delivered.
The framework aligns executive reward with the
achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of
value for shareholders, and it is considered to conform
to the market best practice for the delivery of reward.
The Board of Directors (‘the Board’) ensures that
executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for
good reward governance practices:
• competitiveness and reasonableness
• acceptability to shareholders
• performance linkage / alignment of executive
compensation
• transparency
The Board carried out the functions of the Nomination
and Remuneration Committee and is responsible for
determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements
for its directors and executives. The performance of
the Group depends on the quality of its directors and
executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract,
motivate and retain high performance and high quality
personnel.
• non-executive director fees;
• executive remuneration (directors and other
executives); and
• the over-arching executive remuneration framework
and incentive plan policies.
10
Relationship between remuneration and Group
performance:
During the financial year, the Group has generated
losses as its principal activity was developing the Siviour
Graphite Project and exploration for graphite, copper,
gold and other minerals within South Australia. As
the Group is still in the development, exploration and
evaluation stage, the link between remuneration, Group
performance and shareholder wealth is sometimes
tenuous. Share prices are subject to the influence of
metals prices, market sentiment towards the sector and
the global economy and as such increases or decreases
may occur quite independent of executive performance
or remuneration.
In accordance with best practice corporate governance,
the structure of non-executive director and executive
director remuneration is separate.
Non-executive directors remuneration
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect
the demands and responsibilities of their role. Non-
executive directors’ fees and payments are reviewed
periodically by the Board. The chairman’s fees are
determined independently to the fees of other non-
executive directors based on comparative roles in the
external market. The chairman is not present at any
discussions relating to the determination of his own
remuneration. Non-executive directors do not receive
any performance-based pay.
ASX listing rules require the aggregate non-executive
directors’ remuneration be determined periodically by
a general meeting. The most recent determination was
at the Annual General Meeting held on 5 August 2010,
where the shareholders approved a maximum annual
aggregate remuneration of $350,000.
Retirement allowances for non-executive
directors
In line with guidance from the ASX Corporate
Governance Council on non-executive director’s
remuneration, no retirement allowances are
provided for non-executive directors. Superannuation
contributions required under the Australian
superannuation guarantee legislation continue to be
made as required and are deducted from the directors’
overall fee entitlements.
Directors’ Report 30 June 2020
Executive remuneration
The objective of the Group’s executive reward
framework is to ensure reward for performance is
competitive and appropriate for the results delivered.
The framework aligns executive reward with
achievement of strategic objectives and the creation
of value for shareholders, and conforms to market
practice for delivery of reward. The Board ensures that
executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for
good reward governance practices:
• acceptability to shareholders;
• performance linkage/alignment of executive
compensation;
• transparency; and
• capital management.
The Group has structured an executive remuneration
framework that is market competitive and
complementary to the reward strategy of the
organisation.
Alignment to shareholders’ interests:
• has economic profit as a core component of plan
design;
• focuses on sustained growth in shareholder wealth;
• delivering constant return on assets as well as
focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of
value; and
• attracts and retains high calibre executives.
Alignment to program participants’ interests:
• rewards capability and experience;
• reflects competitive reward for contribution to
growth in shareholder wealth;
• provides a clear structure for earning rewards;
• provides recognition for contribution; and
• competitiveness and reasonableness.
The framework provides a mix of fixed and long-
term incentives.
The Board carried out the functions of the
Remuneration and Nominations Committees
and is responsible for reviewing and negotiating
compensation arrangements of senior executives. It
assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount
of remuneration of such officers on a periodic basis by
relevant employment market conditions with the overall
objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit
from the retention of a high quality board and executive
team. The board manages remuneration and incentive
policies and practices and remuneration packages and
other terms of employment for executive directors,
other senior executives and non-executive directors.
The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies
the following key criteria for good reward governance
practices:
• base pay and benefits, including superannuation;
• short-term performance incentives through a cash
bonus may be determined by the Board; and
• long-term incentives through the issue of share
options and performance rights.
The combination of these comprises the executive’s
total remuneration.
Base pay and benefits
Base pay and benefits are structured as a total
employment cost package which may be delivered as
a combination of cash and prescribed non-financial
benefits, at the executive’s discretion and subject to
board approval.
Executives are offered a competitive base pay that
comprises the fixed component of pay and rewards
to ensure base pay is set to reflect the market for a
comparable role. Base pay for executives is reviewed
periodically to ensure the executive’s pay is competitive
with the market.
There is no guaranteed base pay increase included in
any of the executives’ contracts.
Consolidated entity performance and link to
remuneration
Remuneration for certain individuals is directly linked
to the performance of the Group. A portion of any cash
bonus and incentive payments are at the discretion of
the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Refer to
the “additional information” section below for details of
the earnings and total shareholders return for the last
five years.
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is of the
opinion that the results can be attributed in part to the
adoption of performance based compensation and is
satisfied that this improvement will continue to increase
shareholder wealth if maintained over the coming
years.
Voting and comments made at the Company’s 20
November 2019 Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’)
At the 20 November 2019 AGM, 99.2% of the votes
received supported the adoption of the remuneration
report for the year ended 30 June 2019. The Company
did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM
regarding its remuneration practices.

Non-audit services
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor

approved to ensure that they do not impact the
integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and

Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2020
1. Significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standards and Interpretations
issued by the Australian Accounting Standards
Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations Act 2001,
as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities.
These financial statements also comply with
International Financial Reporting Standards as
issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board (‘IASB’).
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared
under the historical cost convention, except for,
where applicable, the revaluation of available-for-
sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities
at fair value through profit or loss, and equipment
and derivative financial instruments.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of the financial statements
requires the use of certain critical accounting
estimates. It also requires management
to exercise its judgement in the process of
applying the Group’s accounting policies. The
areas involving a higher degree of judgement
or complexity, or areas where assumptions
and estimates are significant to the financial
statements, are disclosed in note 2.
The principal accounting policies adopted in the
preparation of the financial statements are set
out either in the respective notes or below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the
years presented, unless otherwise stated.
New or amended Accounting Standards and
Interpretations adopted
The Group has adopted all of the new
or amended Accounting Standards and
Interpretations issued by the Australian
Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) that are
mandatory for the current reporting period.
The following Accounting Standards and
Interpretations are most relevant to the Group:
AASB 16 Leases
The Group has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019.
The standard replaces AASB 117 ‘Leases’ and for
lessees eliminates the classifications of operating
leases and finance leases. The company has
elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and
corresponding lease liability for short-term leases
with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-
value assets. Lease payments on these assets are
expensed to profit or loss as incurred.
The application of this new standard has
had no material impact on the disclosures or
amounts recognised in the consolidated financial
statements.
New Accounting Standards and
Interpretations not yet mandatory or early
adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and
Interpretations that have recently been issued
or amended but are not yet mandatory, have
not been early adopted by the Group for the
annual reporting period ended 30 June 2020. The
Group has not yet assessed the impact of these
new or amended Accounting Standards and
Interpretations.
26
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020
1. Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern
The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare
the consolidated financial report on a going
concern basis, which contemplates realisation of
assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal
course of business. As disclosed in the financial
report, the group has incurred a loss after tax
for the year of $1,072,575 (2019: $1,321,558)
and net operating cash outflow of $1,022,663
(2019: $646,290). At 30 June 2020, the Group had
net current assets of $1,743,872 (30 June 2019:
$2,310,051).
The consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a
going concern is contingent on raising additional
capital and/or the successful exploration and
subsequent exploitation of its areas of interest
through sale or development. The matters set
out above indicate the existence of a material
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about
the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern
and therefore the entity may be unable to realise
its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal
course of business. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments that may be
necessary if the consolidated entity is unable to
continue as a going concern.
Parent entity information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001,
these financial statements present the results of
the Group only. Supplementary information about
the parent entity is disclosed in note 25.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate
the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of
Renascor Resources Limited (‘Company’ or ‘parent
entity’) as at 30 June 2020 and the results of all
subsidiaries for the year then ended. Renascor
Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together
are referred to in these financial statements as
the ‘Group’.
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the
Group has control. The Group controls an entity
when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to,
variable returns from its involvement with the
entity and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power to direct the activities of the
entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the
date on which control is transferred to the Group.
They are de-consolidated from the date that
control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and
unrealised gains on transactions between
entities in the Group are eliminated. Unrealised
losses are also eliminated unless the transaction
provides evidence of the impairment of the asset
transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries
have been changed where necessary to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the
Group.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for
using the acquisition method of accounting. A
change in ownership interest, without the loss of
control, is accounted for as an equity transaction,
where the difference between the consideration
transferred and the book value of the share of the
non-controlling interest acquired is recognised
directly in equity attributable to the parent.
Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary,
it derecognises the assets including goodwill,
liabilities and non-controlling interest in the
subsidiary together with any cumulative
translation differences recognised in equity.
The Group recognises the fair value of the
consideration received and the fair value of any
investment retained together with any gain or loss
in profit or loss.

Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2020 financial statements
1. Significant accounting policies continued
Revenue recognition
Income tax
The Group recognises revenue as follows:
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects
the consideration to which the Group is expected
to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods
or services to a customer. For each contract with a
customer, the Group: identifies the contract with a
customer; identifies the performance obligations
in the contract; determines the transaction price
which takes into account estimates of variable
consideration and the time value of money;
allocates the transaction price to the separate
performance obligations on the basis of the
relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct
good or service to be delivered; and recognises
revenue when or as each performance obligation
is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to
the customer of the goods or services promised.
Variable consideration within the transaction
price, if any, reflects concessions provided to
the customer such as discounts, rebates and
refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from
the customer and any other contingent events.
Such estimates are determined using either the
‘expected value’ or ‘most likely amount’ method.
The measurement of variable consideration
is subject to a constraining principle whereby
revenue will only be recognised to the extent that
it is highly probable that a significant reversal in
the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will
not occur. The measurement constraint continues
until the uncertainty associated with the variable
consideration is subsequently resolved. Amounts
received that are subject to the constraining
principle are recognised as a refund liability.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues
using the effective interest method. This is a
method of calculating the amortised cost of a
financial asset and allocating the interest income
over the relevant period using the effective
interest rate, which is the rate that exactly
discounts estimated future cash receipts through
the expected life of the financial asset to the net
carrying amount of the financial asset.
Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or
when the right to receive payment is established.
The income tax expense or benefit for the period
is the tax payable on that period’s taxable income
based on the applicable income tax rate for each
jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred
tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary
differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment
recognised for prior periods, where applicable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised
for temporary differences at the tax rates
expected to be applied when the assets are
recovered or liabilities are settled, based on
those tax rates that are enacted or substantively
enacted, except for:
• When the deferred income tax asset or liability
arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or
an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a
business combination and that, at the time of
the transaction, affects neither the accounting
nor taxable profits; or
• When the taxable temporary difference is
associated with interests in subsidiaries,
associates or joint ventures, and the timing
of the reversal can be controlled and it is
probable that the temporary difference will not
reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible
temporary differences and unused tax losses only
if it is probable that future taxable amounts will
be available to utilise those temporary differences
and losses.
The carrying amount of recognised and
unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed
at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets
recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that future taxable profits will be
available for the carrying amount to be recovered.
Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets
are recognised to the extent that it is probable
that there are future taxable profits available to
recover the asset.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only
where there is a legally enforceable right to offset
current tax assets against current tax liabilities
and deferred tax assets against deferred tax
liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable
authority on either the same taxable entity or
different taxable entities which intend to settle
simultaneously.
28
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020
1. Significant accounting policies continued
Renascor Resources Limited (the ‘head entity’)
and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries
have formed an income tax consolidated group
under the tax consolidation regime. The head
entity and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated
group continue to account for their own current
and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated
group has applied the ‘separate taxpayer within
group’ approach in determining the appropriate
amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax
consolidated group.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax
amounts, the head entity also recognises the
current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred
tax assets arising from unused tax losses and
unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary
in the tax consolidated group.
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding
agreements with the tax consolidated entities
are recognised as amounts receivable from or
payable to other entities in the tax consolidated
group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that
the intercompany charge equals the current tax
liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group
member, resulting in neither a contribution by the
head entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution
by the subsidiaries to the head entity.
R & D Tax Incentives
R&D tax incentives are considered more akin
to government grants because they are not
conditional upon earning taxable income and
the group accounts for any R&D Tax incentives
received as government grants under AASB 120
Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure
of Government Assistance.
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the
statement of financial position based on current
and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either
expected to be realised or intended to be sold or
consumed in the Group’s normal operating cycle;
it is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
it is expected to be realised within 12 months
after the reporting period; or the asset is cash
or cash equivalent unless restricted from being
exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least
12 months after the reporting period. All other
assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is
either expected to be settled in the Group’s
normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the
purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within
12 months after the reporting period; or there
is no unconditional right to defer the settlement
of the liability for at least 12 months after the
reporting period. All other liabilities are classified
as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always
classified as non-current.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount may not be
recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for
the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair
value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The
value-in-use is the present value of the estimated
future cash flows relating to the asset using a
pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-
generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets
that do not have independent cash flows are
grouped together to form a cash-generating unit.
Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’) and other
similar taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised
net of the amount of associated GST, unless the
GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax
authority. In this case it is recognised as part of
the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part
of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of
the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net
amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to,
the tax authority is included in other receivables
or other payables in the statement of financial
position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis.
The GST components of cash flows arising
from investing or financing activities which are
recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority,
are presented as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed
net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or
payable to, the tax authority.
29
Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2020 financial statements
1. Significant accounting policies continued
Provisions
Share-based payment transactions
Provisions for legal claims are recognised when:
the Group has a present legal or constructive
obligation as a result of past events; it is more
likely than not that an outflow of resources will be
required to settle the obligation; and the amount
has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not
recognised for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations,
the likelihood that an outflow will be required
in settlement is determined by considering the
class of obligations as a whole. A provision is
recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow
with respect to any one item included in the same
class of obligations may be small.
The Group has obligations to restore and
rehabilitate certain areas where drilling has
occurred on exploration tenements. These
obligations are currently being met as the drilling
is completed and as such no provision has been
recognised.
2.
Critical accounting judgements, estimates
and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements
requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts in the financial statements.
Management continually evaluates its judgements
and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities,
contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses.
Management bases its judgements, estimates
and assumptions on historical experience and
on other various factors, including expectations
of future events, management believes to
be reasonable under the circumstances. The
resulting accounting judgements and estimates
will seldom equal the related actual results. The
judgements, estimates and assumptions that have
a significant risk of causing a material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
(refer to the respective notes) within the next
financial year are discussed below.
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 either the Binomial or
Black-Scholes model taking into account the
terms and conditions upon which the instruments
were granted. The accounting estimates and
assumptions relating to equity-settled share-
based payments would have no impact on the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within
the next annual reporting period but may impact
profit or loss and equity. Details of share based
payment transactions are presented in Note 30.
Exploration and evaluation costs
Exploration and evaluation costs have been
capitalised on the basis that the Group will
commence commercial production in the future,
from which time the costs will be amortised
in proportion to the depletion of the mineral
resources. Key judgements are applied in
considering costs to be capitalised which includes
determining expenditures directly related to these
activities and allocating overheads between those
that are expensed and capitalised. In addition,
costs are only capitalised that are expected
to be recovered either through successful
development or sale of the relevant mining
interest. Factors that could impact the future
commercial production at the mine include the
level of reserves and resources, future technology
changes, which could impact the cost of mining,
future legal changes and changes in commodity
prices. To the extent that capitalised costs are
determined not to be recoverable in the future,
they will be written off in the period in which
this determination is made. Details of capitalised
exploration and evaluation costs are presented in
Note 11.
Development assets
Critical estimates and judgments are disclosed in
Note 12.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020
3. Operating segments
The Group has identified its operating segments
based on the internal reports that reviewed and
used by the Managing Director (Chief Operating
Decision Maker ‘CODM’) and the board of
directors in assessing performance determining
the allocation of resources. The Group is
managed primarily on a geographic basis, that
is, the location of the respective areas of interest
(tenements) in Australia. Operating segments are
determined on the basis of financial information
reported to the board which is at the consolidated
level. The Group does not have any products or
services it derives revenue from.
Accordingly, management currently identifies the
Group as having only one reportable segment,
being the development of the Siviour Graphite
Project and the exploration for graphite, copper,
gold, uranium and other minerals in Australia.
There have been no changes in the operating
segments during the year. Accordingly, all
significant operating decisions are based upon
analysis of the Group as one segment. The
financial results from this segment are equivalent
to the financial statements of the Group as a
whole.
Accounting policy for operating segments
Operating segments are presented using the
‘management approach’, where the information
presented is on the same basis as the internal
reports provided to the CODM. The CODM
is responsible for the allocation of resources
to operating segments and assessing their
performance.

The Group has tax losses arising in Australia of $22,840,659 (2019: $19,996,118) that may be available and
may be offset against future taxable profits. In addition, these tax losses can only be utilised in the future if
the continuity of ownership test is passed, or if failing that, the same business test is passed.
The Group had nil franking credits in its franking account at 30 June 2020 (2019: Nil).
No deferred tax liability has been recognised for expenditure pertaining to exploration and evaluation. The
amount of $4,547,640 is fully offset by the company’s deferred tax assets (2019: $3,195,869).
No deferred tax asset has been recognised because it is not likely future assessable income is derived of a
nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised.

Accounting policy for cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-
term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
The carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents equals the fair value.

Accounting policy for trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally
due for settlement within 30 days.
The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime
expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based
on days overdue.
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.

Accounting policy for property, plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical
cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
The cost of an item of plant and equipment also includes the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and
removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the
Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted
for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to
profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and
equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows:
Plant and equipment
3-10 years
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each
reporting date.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future
economic benefit to the Group. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are
taken to profit or loss.

Accounting policy for exploration and evaluation assets
Exploration and evaluation expenditure in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure
are current is carried forward as an asset in the statement of financial position where it is expected that the
expenditure will be recovered through the successful development and exploitation of an area of interest,
or by its sale, or exploration activities are continuing in an area and activities have not reached a stage which
permits a reasonable estimate of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. Where a
project or an area of interest has been abandoned, the expenditure incurred thereon is written off in the year
in which the decision is made.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure comprises of net direct costs and includes an appropriate portion
of related salaries & wages expenditure associated with each area of interest. During the financial year the
Group has allocated $229,460 of internal personnel costs (2019: $352,266) which form part of the exploration
expenditure for the year.
# Note: Refundable tax incentives (Research and development tax concession) are accounted for as government grants under
AASB 120 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance and offset against capitalised exploration
and evaluation expenditure.

In November 2019 the Company received the results from the Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for its Siviour
Graphite Project. The DFS confirms Siviour’s potential as a low cost, long life graphite project. The asset has
been reclassified as a development asset to appropriately reflect the likelihood of future development.

under AASB 120 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance and offset against capitalised

12. Development asset continued
Assessing impairment on reclassification
The development asset had been assessed for impairment on reclassification from exploration and
evaluation expenditure. In determining the recoverable amount of the asset, estimates were made regarding
the present value of future cashflows. These estimates require significant management judgments and
assumptions and are subject to risk and uncertainty that may be beyond the control of the Group. The
recoverable amount estimate is most sensitive to assumptions regarding the long-term forecasts of
production capacity, graphite prices and discount rates.
The Company has considered market conditions and changes to these estimates and is satisfied that there is
no impairment to the carrying value of the development asset.
The main estimates and assumptions used are as follows:
• Production: the model is based on staged development with average production of 80ktpa during the first
4 years, before expansion to 144ktpa in years 5 to 10.
• Graphite prices: prices are based on the latest internal forecasts taking into account expected demand and
supply, benchmarked with external sources of information.
• Discount rate: a discount rate 10% has been used for financial modelling.
Accounting policy for development asset
Expenditure is transferred from ‘Exploration and evaluation assets’ to ‘Development asset’ once the work
completed to date supports the future development of the property and such development receives
appropriate approvals.
After transfer of the exploration and evaluation assets, all subsequent expenditure on the construction,
installation or completion of infrastructure facilities is capitalised in ‘development asset’. Development
expenditure is net of proceeds from the sale of ore extracted during the development phase to the extent
that it is considered integral to the development of the asset.
Any costs incurred in the testing of assets to determine if they are functioning as intended, are capitalised,
net of any proceeds received from selling any product produced while testing. Where these proceeds exceed
the cost of testing, any excess is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive
income.
After production starts, all assets included in “Development asset’ are then transferred to ‘Producing mine’.

Accounting policy for employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave
expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected
to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Amounts not expected to be settled within the next 12 months
The current provision for employee benefits includes all unconditional entitlements where employees have
completed the required period of service and also those where employees are entitled to pro-rata payments
in certain circumstances. The entire amount is presented as current, since the Group does not have an
unconditional right to defer settlement. However, based on past experience, the Group does not expect all
employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next 12 months.

Issued capital continued
Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so
that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum
capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net
debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
The Group would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as
value adding relative to the current Company’s share price at the time of the investment. The Group is not
actively pursuing additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its existing
businesses in order to maximise synergies.
The Group is subject to certain financing arrangements covenants and meeting these is given priority in all
capital risk management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements
during the financial year.
The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2019 Annual Report.
Accounting policy for issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a
deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

performance of the Group. The board is responsible for managing the Group’s finance facilities. The Group
does not currently undertake hedging of any kind and is not directly exposed to currency risk.
The Group holds the following financial instruments:

Interest rate risk
As at 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2019, the Group had no borrowings. As such the group is not exposed to any
significant interest rate risk.
At the reporting date, the Company is exposed to changes in market interest rates through its bank deposits,
which are subject to variable interest rates.
The following table illustrates the sensitivity of the net result for the year and equity to a reasonably possible
change in interest rates of +0.5% and -0.5% (2019: +0.5%/-0.5%), with effect from the beginning of the year.
These changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market conditions.
The calculations are based on the cash and cash equivalents held at the beginning of each reporting period.
All other variables are held constant.

Credit risk
Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with
banks and financial institutions. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a
minimum rating of ‘A’ are accepted. The majority of cash and cash equivalents is held with a single financial
institution.
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial
loss to the Group. The Group does not hold any collateral to mitigate this risk.
The Group has adopted a lifetime expected loss allowance in estimating expected credit losses to trade
receivables through the use of a provisions matrix using fixed rates of credit loss provisioning. These
provisions are considered representative across all customers of the Group based on recent sales
experience, historical collection rates and forward-looking information that is available.
Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of
this include the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan, no active enforcement activity and a failure
to make contractual payments for a period greater than 1 year.
The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to
external credit ratings (if available) or to historical information about counterparty default rates:

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the
availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when
due and close out market positions. At the end of each reporting period the Group held deposits at call of
$1,855,784 (2019: $2,877,843) that are expected to readily generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk.
The Group has sufficient funds to finance its operations and exploration activities and to allow for reasonable
contingencies.

On 1 July 2020 the company announced the results of a study assessing an integrated battery anode material
operation in South Australia to produce Purified Spherical Graphite (“PSG”) for lithium-ion battery anodes.
The study confirms that the integration of a PSG processing operation with Siviour creates significant added
value and aligns the company with end-users of PSG seeking supply chain security through the world’s first
integrated, in-country mine and battery anode material operation outside of China.
On 14 July 2020 the company announced the results of independent purification tests that confirmed that
Siviour is able to produce PSG through the more environmentally-friendly caustic roast purification method.
On 21 July 2020 an updated Mineral Ore Reserve estimate was announced confirming Siviour as the largest
reported total Ore Reserve outside of Africa, and the second largest reported proven reserve of graphite
in the world. This estimate provides additional confidence in the size and quality of the Siviour deposit as a
consistent source of high-quality graphite supporting a mine life of over 40 years.
On 4 August 2020 the Company announced high-grade, shallow gold drill intercepts at the Carnding Project in
South Australia’s Central Gawler Craton. The results include over 16 g/t Au at the Soyuz prospect.
On 10 August 2020 the Company announced an expansion to the Carding Project, with the approval of an
exploration licence application over an area immediately north of the Soyuz prospect.
On 12 August 2020 independent qualification tests undertaken by a German graphite specialist confirmed
that Siviour PSG meets product specifications required for integration of PSG into lithium-ion battery anodes.
On 28 August 2020 an induced polarization survey confirmed multiple untested, shallow gold targets along-
strike from the company’s Soyuz (Carnding) prospect in South Australia’s Gawler Craton.
On 18 September 2020 the company announced that it has received firm commitments from professional
and sophisticated investors to raise approximately $3.6 million (before expenses) at 1.1cents per share with
one attaching option for every two shares issued. The funds raised will be used to advance the Siviour Project
and Carnding Gold Project.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2020 that has significantly affected, or may
significantly affect the Group’s operations, the results of those operations, or the Group’s state of affairs in
future financial years.

Options and performance rights are considered anti-dilutive as the Group is loss making. At 30 June 2020
there were no anti-dilutive options (2019: 129,761,096) and 12,000,000 performance rights (2019: 18,000,000).
Accounting policy for earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Renascor Resources
Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number
of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares
issued during the financial year.
Diluted earnings per share
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 dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Performance rights granted to directors and senior management
At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on 3 September 2018 Shareholders of the Company granted
approval for the issue of performance rights to Mr David Christensen. Details of the performance rights are
in the Notice of Extra Ordinary General Meeting dated 1 August 2018. However the vesting conditions are
outlined below:
Tranche A Performance Rights. 6,000,000 Performance Rights will vest upon the completion of a positive
Definite Feasibility Study in respect of the production of graphite concentrates.
Tranche B Performance Rights. 6,000,000 Performance Rights will vest upon the commencement of
construction of a commercial graphite concentrate production facility
Tranche C Performance Rights. 6,000,000 Performance Rights will vest upon (i) the share price of Renascor
ordinary shares having achieved a closing price of in excess of $0.055 for five consecutive days after the issue
date of such Performance Rights, and (ii) the date that is two and one-half years after the issue date of such
Performance Rights.
The Performance Rights are expensed over the expected vesting period. The total value of Performance
Rights recognised in the current period is $70,259 (2019: $177,675).
The performance rights were valued as outlined below:

The tranches were valued using the Black Scholes pricing model that takes into account the term of the
Performance Rights, the vesting and performance criteria (if applicable), the non-tradable nature of the rights
(if applicable), the share price at grant date, expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected
dividend yield, the probability that the Performance Rights will issue and the risk free interest rate for the
term of the Performance Right.
The probability that the Tranche C rights will vest (38%) was determined using the Monte Carlo simulation.
This model takes into account the randomness of the share price movements and the volatility of the
underlying share.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of performance rights outstanding at the end of the financial
year was 2.4 years (2019: 3.4 years).
Fair value of performance rights granted:
The assessed fair value at grant date of performance rights is allotted equally over the period from grant date
to vesting date. The fair value was independently determined using a Black Scholes option pricing model.
that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria (if
applicable), the impact of dilution, the non-tradable nature of the option (if applicable), the share price at
grant date, expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free
interest rate for the term of the option.
Historical volatility of a group of comparable companies has been the basis of determining expected share
price volatility, as it is assumed that this is indicative of future movements. No adjustment has been made
to the life of the option based on no past history regarding expected exercise or any variation of the expiry
date. Accordingly, the expected life of the options has been taken to the full period of time from grant date to
expiry date, which may fail to eventuate in the future.
The valuation model input also assumes no dividend yield on the Performance Shares.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020
30. Share-based payments continued
Accounting policy for share-based payments
Share-based compensation benefits are provided to directors, executives and consultants through the
granting of share options and performance rights.
Options and performance rights are granted for no cash consideration. When these share options and
performance rights are granted, the fair value of the options and performance rights issued are recognised
as an employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The amount recognised as an
expense is adjusted to reflect the number of share options and performance rights for which the related
service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately
recognised as an expense is based on the number of share options and performance rights that meet the
related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date.
The fair value of share options and performance rights are measured using an appropriate pricing model.
Measurement inputs include the share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument,
expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for
the term of the option and performance rights. Service and non-market performance conditions attached to
the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value.
Upon the exercise of options and performance rights, the balance of the share-based payments reserve
relating to those options and performance rights is transferred to share capital.
Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore any awards subject to
market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met,
provided all other conditions are satisfied.
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not
been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that
increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.
If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the Group or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition
is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the Group or employee and is not
satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining
vesting period, unless the award is forfeited.
If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any
remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled
award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification.

Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s

that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the
time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which
give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s
ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and
discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this
matter.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Renascor Resources Limited
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide
a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty
related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit
matters to be communicated in our report.

within the net present value calculation for
appropriateness.
The impairment assessment is a key audit matter due to the
size of the recorded asset, $13,266,737 at reclassification
and the degree of estimate and assumptions required to be
made by the Group, specifically concerning future
discounted cash flows. Note 12 discloses the assumptions
used by the Group in testing these assets for impairment
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the
financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001

fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the group to

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