CHAIRMAN’S REVIEW 
Dear Fellow Shareholders, 

During  the  past  twelve  months  our  Company  has  completed  the  refresh  of  the  feasibility  study  for  the 
development of the  Sihayo-Pungkut  project  located  in  North  Sumatra,  Indonesia.  The  results  of  this  study 
indeed showed significantly improved economics, even with a lower USD Gold price assumption. We believe 
some  further  improvement  may  yet  be  possible,  however  intend  to  proceed  with  permitting  and  other 
statutory approvals required given the change in project size and other aspects.   

Preliminary  discussions  around  potential  project  debt  capacity  and  financing  structures  have  also  begun.   
This  process  is  expected  to  build  momentum  once  final  project  approvals  are  in  place  and  will  be  an 
important  part  of  delivering  the  project  development.  Our  clear  goal  is  to  put  the  Sihayo-Pungkut  project 
into development over the next twelve months. To deliver on this objective will require a lot of work and as 
a result the coming year should continue to see high levels of activity. 

I would again like to thank our employees, contractors and my fellow directors for their efforts over the past 
twelve months. I wish to thank Mr Malcolm Paterson for his efforts in completing the feasibility study update 
and welcome Mr Timothy Adams as interim CEO. 

I  would  also  like  to  thank  all  our  shareholders  and  particularly  our  major  shareholders  for  their  ongoing 
support of the company.   

Yours Sincerely, 

Misha Anthony Collins

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS 
Sihayo Gold Project (75%) 

The  Sihayo  Gold  Project  (“Sihayo”)  is  held  by  PT  Sorikmas  Mining  (“Sorikmas”)  under  a  7th  Generation 
Contract of Work (“COW”) and is located in Mandailing Natal, North Sumatra, Indonesia.   

The COW describes in detail the rights and obligations of both the Company and the Government during the 
term of the COW.  Our COW is in the first year of construction having completed the three main Indonesian 
Government Statutory Permits.   

PT  Sorikmas Mining  is 75% owned by Sihayo Gold Limited (“Sihayo  Gold”) and 25%  by PT Aneka Tambang 
Tbk (“Antam”).  Sihayo Gold is responsible for 100% of the exploration and development funding of Sorikmas 
until the commencement of production.  The funding is by way of loans to Sorikmas and under the terms of 
the  Loan  Agreement,  Antam  is  required  to  repay  its  share  of  loans  to  Sihayo  Gold  or  other  lenders  to 
Sorikmas, from 80% of its attributable share of available cash flow from production, until its 25% share of the 
loans are repaid in full.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS 
Sihayo Pungkut – Geology 

Sihayo  is  located  along  the  Trans  Sumatra  Fault  Zone  ("TSFZ")  and  associated  Neogene  Magmatic  Arc 
("NMA"),  which  is  the  result  of  an  oblique  collision  of  two  tectonic  plates  and  associated  subduction.  A 
complex  suite  of  Permian  volcanics  and  sediments,  intruded  by  Jurassic  and  Cretaceous  intrusive  plutons, 
subsequently juxtaposed or overlain by Tertiary to recent volcanics, intrusives, and sediments comprises the 
broader COW area. 

Figure  2  shows  the  location  of  the  Sihayo  Resource  and  key  exploration  prospects  across  the  COW  that 
support an opportunity for significant exploration targets for ongoing potential project generation. 

In addition to the Sihayo Resource there are over twenty (20) identified prospects of carbonate-hosted gold, 
low to intermediate - sulphidation epithermal-vein gold; gold-copper skarn, copper-gold porphyry, and lead 
zinc skarn style mineralisation spread across the highly  prospective  COW area  and these prospects will be 
the subject of future exploration activities.

Feasibility Study 
The Sihayo "Maiden" Ore Reserve and Feasibility Study completion was announced on January 29, 2014 and 
was substantially revised in July 2018. 

Indicated and Measured Resources have been converted to Probable and Proved Ore Reserves by Entech Pty 
Ltd. The relevant JORC 2012 Table 1 is available on the Company website.

Table 2: JORC Code (2012 Edition) Sihayo Ore Reserves prepared by Entech Pty Ltd (May 2018) 

The January 2014 Feasibility Study was based on a gold price of US$1,400/oz, which proved to be optimistic 
in the ensuing period and reduced the capacity to attract funding to complete the project.   

The revised Feasibility is based on a gold price of US$1,300 and reflects updated assumptions: 

  Doubling the production rate to average 91,000 oz per year, 
  Reducing tailings and waste disposal costs, 
  Owner operation for mining, drilling and laboratory service, 
  Simplified plant design to reduce capital, 
 
 

Including grid power, 
Inclusion  of  cyanide  recovery  and  detox  technology  using  the  RECYN  process  to  reduce  operating 
costs. 

Permitting and Approvals 

The  status  of  the  COW  is  now  in  the  second  year  of  construction  and  the  Company  expects  to  complete 
construction within the permitted three year period, providing funding of the project is successful. 

The three key Indonesian Government approvals, Feasibility Study, AMDAL (Environmental) and Forestry are 
complete,  however  amendments  are  being  prepared  reflecting  the  proposed  changes  resulting  from  the 
revised Feasibility Study. 

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Programmes 

Ahead  of  the  potential  project  development  the  Company  has  continued  to  engage  local  Stakeholders 
associated with Government permitting and approvals. 

As the project progress into construction and operation, the Company remains committed to the delivery of 
CSR programs in line with our Strategy.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The financial statements  are  general purpose  financial statements  that have  been prepared in accordance 
with Accounting Standards of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. 

The financial statements cover Sihayo Gold Limited and its controlled entities, and has authorised for issue in 
accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 30 September 2018.  Sihayo Gold Limited is a listed public 
company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. 

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the  group in the preparation of 
the financial report.  The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.  

Basis of preparation 

Statement of compliance 
The  financial  report  is  a  general  purpose  financial  report  which  has  been  prepared  in  accordance  with 
Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial report of 
the Group also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations adopted by the 
International Accounting Standards Board. 

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted 
A  number  of  new  standards,  amendments  to  standards  and  interpretations  issued  by the  AASB  which  are 
not  yet  mandatorily  applicable  to  Sihayo  Group  have  not  been  applied  in  preparing  these  consolidated 
financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Group are set out below. Sihayo Group does not 
plan to adopt these standards early.  

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 
June 2018 reporting year. The group’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations 
is set out below: 

  AASB  9  Financial  Instruments  and  associated  Amending  Standards  (applicable  for  annual 

reporting period commencing 1 January 2018) 

The  Standard  will  be  applicable  retrospectively  (subject  to  the  comment  on  hedge  accounting 
below)  and  includes  revised  requirements  for  the  classification  and  measurement  of  financial 
instruments, revised recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments and 
simplified requirements for hedge accounting.  

Key  changes  made  to  this  standard  that  may  affect  the  Group  on  initial  application  include 
certain simplifications to the classification of financial assets, simplifications to the accounting of 
embedded derivatives, and the irrevocable election to recognise gains and losses on investments 
in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. 

The  directors  anticipate  that  the  adoption  of  AASB  9  will  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the 
Group’s financial instruments).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

  AASB  15:  Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers  (applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods 

commencing on or after 1 January 2018) 

When  effective,  this  Standard  will  replace  the  current  accounting  requirements  applicable  to 
revenue  with  a  single,  principles-based  model.  Except  for  a  limited  number  of  exceptions, 
including leases, the new revenue model in AASB 15 will apply to all contracts with customers as 
well as non-monetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales 
to customers and potential customers. 

The core principle of the Standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer 
of  promised  goods  or  services  to  customers  in  an  amount  that  reflects  the  consideration  to 
which  the  entity  expects  to  be  entitled  in  exchange  for  the  goods  or  services.  To  achieve  this 
objective, AASB 15 provides the following five-step process: 

- identify the contract(s) with a customer; 
- identify the performance obligations in the contract(s); 
- determine the transaction price; 
- allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and 
- recognise revenue when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied. 

This Standard will require retrospective restatement, as well as enhanced disclosures regarding 
revenue. 

The  directors  anticipate  that  the  adoption  of  AASB  15  will  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the 
Group's financial statements. 

  AASB  16:  Leases  (applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods  commencing  on  or  after  1  January 

2019). 

When  effective,  this  Standard  will  replace  the  current  accounting  requirements  applicable  to 
leases  in  AASB  117:  Leases  and  related  interpretations.  AASB  16  introduces  a  single  lessee 
accounting model that eliminates the requirement for leases to be classified as either operating 
leases or finance leases. Lessor accounting remains similar to current practice.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

The main changes introduced by the new Standard are as follows: 
- 

recognition of the right-to-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short term leases 
with less than 12 months of tenure and leases relating to low value assets); 

-  depreciating the right-to-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in 

profit or loss and unwinding of the liability in principal and interest components; 
inclusion  of  variable  lease  payments  that  depend  on  an  index  or  a  rate  in  the  initial 
measurement of the lease liability using the index or rate at the commencement date; 
application  of  a  practical  expedient  to  permit  a  lessee  to  elect  not  to  separate  non-lease 
components and instead account for all components as a lease; and 
additional disclosure requirements. 

- 

- 

- 

The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lease to either retrospectively apply the Standard 
to  comparatives  in  line  with  AASB  108  or  recognise  the  cumulative  effect  of  retrospective 
application as an adjustment to opening equity at the date of initial application.  
The  directors  anticipate  that  the  adoption  of  AASB  16  will  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the 
Group’s recognition of leases and disclosures. 

  AASB 2014-10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Sale or Contribution of Assets 
between  an  Investor  and  its  Associate  or  Joint  Venture  (applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods 
commencing on or after 1 January 2018). 
This  Standard  amends  AASB  10:  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  with  regards  to  a  parent 
losing  control  over  a  subsidiary  that  is  not  a  “business”  as  defined  in  AASB  3:  Business 
Combinations to an associate or joint venture and requires that: 
- 

a gain or loss (including any amounts in other comprehensive income (OCI)) be recognised 
only to the extent of the unrelated investor’s interest in that associate or joint venture; 
the remaining gain or loss be eliminated against the carrying amount of the investment in 
that associate or joint venture; and 
any gain or loss from remeasuring the remaining investment in the former subsidiary at fair 
value  also  be  recognised  only  to  the  extent  of  the  unrelated  investor’s  interest  in  the 
associate  or  joint  venture.  The  remaining  gain  or  loss  should  be  eliminated  against  the 
carrying amount of the remaining investment. 

- 

- 

The directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 2014-10 will not have a material impact on 
the Group's financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

  Other standards not yet applicable 

There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a 
material  impact  on  the  entity  in  the  current  or  future  reporting  periods  and  on  foreseeable 
future transactions 

New and amended standards adopted by the Group 

The Group has considered the implications of new and amended Accounting Standards applicable for annual 
reporting  periods  beginning  after  1  January  2017  but  determined  that  their  application  to  the  financial 
statements is either not relevant or not material. 
a)  Going concern 

The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  on  a  going  concern  basis  which  the  directors  believe  to  be 
appropriate. The directors are confident that the Group will be able to maintain sufficient levels of working 
capital to continue as a going concern and continue to pay its debts as and when they fall due. 

For  the  year  ended  30  June  2018,  the  Group  incurred  a  loss  before  tax  of  $2,673,862  (2017:  loss  of 
$1,315,522) and has a working capital deficit of $3,289,968 (2017: $143,944). The Group has cash and cash 
equivalents  of  $116,210  (2017:  $834,757)  and  current  liabilities  of  $3,663,874  (2017:  $1,181,826)  which 
includes borrowings of $1,500,000. 

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal 
business activities and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. 

The Group’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon it maintaining sufficient funds for its 
operations  and  commitments.  The  directors  continue  to  be  focused  on  meeting  the  Group’s  business 
objectives and is mindful of the funding requirements to meet these objectives. The Directors consider the 
basis of going concern to be appropriate for the following reasons: 
• 
• 
• 

The current cash of the Group relative to its fixed and discretionary commitments; 
The contingent nature of certain of the Group’s project expenditure commitments; 
The  ability  of  the  Group  to  terminate  certain  agreements  without  any  further  on-going  obligation 
beyond what has accrued up to the date of termination; 
The underlying prospects for the Group to raise funds from the capital markets; and 
The fact that future exploration and evaluation expenditure are generally discretionary in nature (ie. 
at  the  discretion  of  the  Directors  having  regard  to  an  assessment  of  the  progress  of  works 
undertaken  to  date  and  the  prospects  for  the  same).  Subject  to  meeting  certain  expenditure 
commitments,  further  exploration  activities  may  be  slowed  or  suspended  as  part  of  the 
management of the Group’s working capital.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

a)  Going concern (continued) 

The Directors are confident that the Group can continue as a going concern and as such are of the opinion 
that the financial report has been appropriately prepared on a going concern basis. 

Should the Group be unable to undertake the initiatives disclosed above, there is uncertainty which may cast 
doubt as to whether or not the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and whether it will realise 
its  assets  and  extinguish  its  liabilities  in  the  normal  course  of  business  and  at  the  amounts  stated  in  the 
financial statements. 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of 
recorded asset amounts nor to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should 
the Group not continue as a going concern. 

b)  Principles of consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by 
Sihayo  Gold  Limited  and  all  of  the  subsidiaries.  Subsidiaries  are  entities  the  parent  controls.  The  parent 
controls  an  entity  when  it  is  exposed  to,  or  has  rights  to,  variable  returns  from  its  involvement  with  the 
entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is 
provided in Note 18. 

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the 
Group  from  the  date  on  which  control  is  obtained  by  the  Group.  The  consolidation  of  a  subsidiary  is 
discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or 
losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of 
subsidiaries  have  been  changed  and  adjustments  made  where  necessary  to  ensure  uniformity  of  the 
accounting policies adopted by the Group. 

Equity interests  in a subsidiary not  attributable,  directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non 
controlling  interests".  The  Group  initially  recognises  non-controlling  interests  that  are  present  ownership 
interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets on liquidation 
at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets.  

Subsequent  to  initial  recognition,  non-controlling  interests  are  attributed  their  share  of  profit  or  loss  and 
each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the 
equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income. 

c)  Business combinations 

The  purchase  method  of  accounting  is  used  to  account  for  business  combinations  regardless  of  whether 
equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The cost of a business combination is measured as the fair 
value of the assets given, shares  issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at  the  date of exchange  and the 
amount  of  any  non-controlling  interest  in  the  acquiree.  For  each  business  combination,  the  acquirer 
measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the 
acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

c)  Business combinations (continued) 

Where  equity  instruments  are  issued  in  a  business  combination,  the  fair  value  of  the  instruments  is  their 
published market price as at the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that 
the published price at the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence 
and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of fair value.  

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities  and contingent liabilities assumed in a business  combination are 
measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling 
interest. The excess of the cost of the business combination over the fair value of the Group’s share of the 
identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of 
the net assets acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, but 
only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired. 

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer's previously 
held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured at fair value as at the acquisition date through profit or 
loss. 

Where  settlement  of  any  part  of  cash  consideration  is  deferred,  the  amounts  payable  in  the  future  are 
discounted  to  their  present  value  as  at  the  date  of  exchange.  The  discount  rate  used  is  the  entity’s 
incremental  borrowing  rate,  being  the  rate  at  which  a  similar  borrowing  could  be  obtained  from  an 
independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. 

d)  Income tax 

The  charge  for  current  income  tax  expenses  is  based  on  the  profit  for  the  year  adjusted  for  any  non-
assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively 
enacted by the balance sheet date. 
Deferred tax  is accounted for using the  balance sheet  liability method in respect of temporary differences 
arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.   

No  deferred  income  tax  will  be  recognised  from  the  initial  recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability,  excluding 
business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. 

Deferred  income  tax  assets  are  recognised  to  the  extent  that  it  is  probable  that  future  tax  profits  will  be 
available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. 
The  amount  of  benefits  brought  to  account  or  which  may  be  realised  in  the  future  is  based  on  the 
assumption  that  no  adverse  change  will  occur  in  income  tax  legislation  and  the  anticipation  that  the 
economic  entity  will  derive  sufficient  future  assessable  income  to  enable  the  benefit  to  be  realised  and 
comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.  

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised 
or  liability  is  settled.   Deferred  tax  is  credited  in the statement  of  comprehensive  income  except where  it 
relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly 
against equity.

For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

e)  Property, plant & equipment 

Each  class  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  is  carried  at  cost  or  fair  value  less,  where  applicable,  any 
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 

Plant and equipment 
Property, plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment losses. 
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of 
the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected 
net cash flows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net 
cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts 

Depreciation 
The  depreciable  amount  of  all  Property,  Plant  and  Equipment  (other  than  Leasehold  Improvements  and 
certain plant and equipment which are based on the prime cost method) is based on the diminishing value  
method over their useful lives to the Company commencing from the time the assets are held ready for use. 
The depreciation rates used for plant and equipment vary between 2.5% and 40%. 

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet 
date. 
An  asset’s  carrying  amount  is  written  down  immediately  to  its  recoverable  amount  if  the  asset’s  carrying 
value is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. 
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount.  These gains 
and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income. 

f)  Acquistion of assets 

The  purchase  method  of  accounting  is  used  for  all  acquisitions  of  assets  regardless  of  whether  shares  or 
other  assets  are  acquired.  Cost  is  determined  as  the  fair  value  of  the  assets  given  up,  shares  issued  or 
liabilities  undertaken  at  the  date  of  acquisition  plus  costs  incidental  to  the  acquisition.  Where  shares  are 
issued in an acquisition, the value of the shares is determined having reference to the fair value of the assets 
or net assets acquired, including goodwill or discount on acquisition where applicable. 

Where  settlement  of  any  part  of  cash  consideration  is  deferred,  the  amounts  payable  in  the  future  are 
discounted  to  their  present  value  as  at  the  date  of  the  acquisition.  The  discount  rate  used  is  the  rate  at 
which a similar borrowing could be obtained under comparable terms and conditions. 

g)  Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

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

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which 
the decision to abandon the area is made.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

g)  Exploration and evaluation expenditure (continued) 

When production commences, the  accumulated costs for the relevant  area of interest are  amortised over 
the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves. 

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to 
carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. 

h)  Financial instruments 

Recognition 
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the 
related  contractual  rights  or  obligations  exist.  Subsequent  to  initial  recognition  these  instruments  are 
measured as set out below. 

Loans and receivables 
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not 
quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.  

Financial liabilities 
Non-derivative  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  at  amortised  cost,  comprising  original  debt  less  principal 
payments and amortisation. 

Fair value 
Fair  value  is  determined  based  on  current  bid  prices  for  all  quoted  investments.  Valuation  techniques  are 
applied  to  determine  the  fair  value  for  all  unlisted  securities,  including  recent  arm’s  length  transactions, 
reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. 

Impairment 
At each reporting date, the group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a  financial instrument 
has been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 

i)  Impairment of assets 

At  each  reporting  date,  the  group  reviews  the  carrying  values  of  its  tangible  and  intangible  assets  to 
determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired.   

If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value 
less  costs  to  sell  and  value  in  use,  is  compared  to  the  asset’s  carrying  value.    Any  excess  of  the  asset’s 
carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of comprehensive income. 

j)  Interests in joint arrangements 

Joint  arrangements  represent  the  contractual  sharing  of  control  between  parties  in  a  business  venture 
where unanimous decisions about relevant activities are required.

For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

j)  Interests in joint arrangements (continued) 

Separate  joint  venture  entities  providing  joint  venturers  with  an  interest  to  net  assets  are  classified  as  a 
"joint venture" and accounted for using the equity method. 

Joint venture operations represent arrangements whereby joint operators maintain direct interests in each 
asset  and  exposure  to  each  liability  of  the  arrangement.  The  Group's  interests  in  the  assets,  liabilities, 
revenue  and  expenses  of  joint  operations  are  included  in  the  respective  line  items  of  the  consolidated 
financial statements. 

Gains and losses resulting from sales to a joint operation are recognised to the extent of the other parties' 
interests.  When  the  Group  makes  purchases  from  a  joint  operation,  it  does  not  recognise  its  share  of  the 
gains and losses from the joint arrangement until it resells those goods/assets to a third party. 

k)  Functional and presentation currency 

The  functional  currency  of  each  of  the  group’s  entities  is  measured  using  the  currency  of  the  primary 
economic environment in which that entity operates.  The consolidated financial statements are presented 
in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency. 

l)  Foreign currency transactions and balances 

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at 
the date of the transaction.  Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year end exchange rate.  
Non-monetary items measured at historical costs continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of 
the transaction.  Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date 
when fair values were determined. 

Exchange  differences  arising  on  the  translation  of  monetary  items  are  recognised  in  the  statement  of 
comprehensive income, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cashflow or net investment hedge. 

Exchange  differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are  recognised directly in equity to 
the  extent  that  the  gain  or  loss  is  directly  recognised  in  equity,  otherwise  the  exchange  difference  is 
recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 

m) Group companies 

The  financial  results  and  position  of  foreign  operations  whose  functional  currency  is  different  from  the 
group’s presentation currency are translated as follows: 

  Assets and Liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date. 
 

Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period. 

Exchange rate differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s 
foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position.  These differences are recognised 
in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which the operation is disposed.

For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

n)  Revenue 

Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the 
financial assets. Revenue from the sale of assets is recognised at the date that the contract is entered into. 
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). 

o)  Employee benefits 

Provision is made for the group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees 
to balance date.  Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at 
the  amounts  expected  to  be  paid  when  the  liability  is  settled,  plus  related  on-costs.    Employee  benefits 
payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows 
to be made for those benefits. 

p)  Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of a past event, 
for  which  it  is  probable  that  an  outflow  of  economic  benefits  will  result  and  that  outflow  can  be  reliably 
measured. 

q)  Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts are 
shown within short term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. 

r)  Goods and Services Tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST is 
not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office.  In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of  
the cost of acquisition of the  asset  or as part of an item of the expense.  Receivables and payables in the 
statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. 
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of 
investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. 

s)  Share based payment transactions 

The  group  provides  benefits  to  the  directors  and  senior  executives  in  the  form  of  share-based  payment 
transactions,  whereby  services  are  rendered  in  exchange  for  shares  or  rights  over  shares  (‘equity  settled 
transactions’). 

The cost of these equity settled transactions with directors is measured by reference to the fair value at the 
date at which they are granted.  The fair value is determined by an external valuer using the Black- Scholes 
model. 

In  valuing  equity-settled  transactions,  no  account  is  taken  of  any  performance  conditions,  other  than 
conditions linked to the price of the shares of Sihayo Gold Limited.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

s)  Share based payment transactions (continued) 

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over 
the period in which the market conditions are fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled 
transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has 
expired and (ii) the number of awards that in the opinion of the directors will ultimately vest. The opinion is 
formed  on  the  best  available  information  at  balance  date.  No  adjustment  is  made  for  the  likelihood  of 
market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination 
of fair value at grant date. 

No  expense  is  recognised  for  awards  that  do  not  ultimately  vest,  except  for  awards  where  vesting  is 
conditional upon market condition. 

Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the 
terms  had  not  been  modified.  In  addition,  an  expense  is  recognised  for  any  increase  in  the  value  of  the 
transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification. 

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, as described in 
the previous paragraph. 

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation 
of earnings per share. 

t)  Trade and other receivables 

CURRENT 
All trade debtors are recognised at the amounts receivable as they are due for settlement no more than 30 
days  from  the  date  of  recognition.  Collectability  of  trade  debtors  is  reviewed  on  an  ongoing  basis.  Debts 
which  are  known  to  be  uncollectible  are  written  off.  A  provision  for  doubtful  debts  is  raised  when  some 
doubt as to collection exists and in any event when the debt is more than 60 days overdue. 

u)  Trade and other receivables 

NON-CURRENT 
All  debtors that  are  not  expected to  be  received  within  12 months of  reporting  date  are  included  in  non-
current receivables. Collectability of non-current receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which 
are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when some doubt as to 
collection exists. 

v)  Trade and other creditors 

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated  entity prior to the 
end of the financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 
days of recognition

For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

w) Operating leases 

Operating lease payments are charged to the Statement of comprehensive income in the periods in which 
they are incurred, as this represents the pattern of benefits derived from the leased assets. 

x)  Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

Significant accounting judgements 
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, 
apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in 
the financial statements: 

Exploration and evaluation assets 
The Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure is set out above. The application 
of  this  policy  necessarily  requires  management  to  make  certain  estimates  and  assumptions  as  to  future 
events  and  circumstances,  in  particular,  the  assessment  of  whether  economic  quantities  of  reserves  are 
found. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. 

Significant accounting estimates and assumptions 
The  carrying  amounts  of  certain  assets  and  liabilities  are  often  determined  based  on  estimates  and 
assumptions of  future  events.  The  key estimates  and  assumptions that  have  a  significant  risk  of  causing a 
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting 
period are: 

Recovery of deferred assets 
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences when management considers that it 
is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences. 

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 Group measures the cost of cash-settled 
share-based payments at fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes model taking into account the 
terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. 

y)  Segment reporting 

The Group determines and presents operating segments based on the information that internally is provided 
to  the  Managing  Director,  who  is  the  Group’s  chief  operating  decision  maker.  An  operating  segment  is  a 
component  of  the  Group  that  engages  in  business  activities  from  which  it  may  earn  revenues  and  incur 
expenses,  including  revenues  and  expenses  that  relate  to  transactions  with  any  of  the  Group’s  other 
components. All operating segments’ operating results are regularly reviewed by the Managing Director to 
make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. 

Unless  stated  otherwise,  all  amounts  reported  to  the  Board  of  Directors  as  the  chief  decision  maker  with 
respect to operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to 
those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group.

For The Year Ended 30 June 2018 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

y)  Segment reporting (continued) 

Intersegment  loans  payable  and  receivable  are  initially  recognised  at  the  consideration  received  net  of 
transaction costs. If intersegment loans receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not 
adjusted to fair value on market interest rates. 

2. RISK MANAGEMENT 

(a) Interest rate risk 

The  Consolidated  Entity  and  the  Company’s  exposure  to  interest  rate  risk,  is  the  risk  that  a  financial 
instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted 
average interest rate on classes of financial assets and liabilities. The Consolidated Entity and the Company 
do  not  have  a  major  exposure  in  this  area  as  the  interest  rate  earned  on  deposited  funds  does  not  vary 
greatly from month to month.

(b) Credit risk exposures 

The consolidated entity and the Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum 
exposure to credit risk at balance date is the carrying amount (net of provision of doubtful debts) of those 
assets as disclosed in the consolidsted statement of financial position and note 21. 

As the consolidated entity and Company does not presently have any debtors arising from sales, lending, 
significant stock levels or any other credit risk, a formal credit risk management policy is not maintained. 

(c) Foreign currency risk management 

The Consolidated Entity and the Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies arising from costs 
incurred at overseas mineral exploration tenements. To mitigate this risk the Company holds cash in the 
currency in which it forecasts the costs will be incurred.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Consolidated Entity and the Company will not be able to meet its financial 
obligations as they fall due. Financial obligations of the Consolidated Entity and the Company consist of trade 
creditors and other payables. 
The Company has not conducted a sensitivity analysis on credit or interest rate risk as the amounts are not 
considered significant.

was a reversal of prior impairment provision. The Company does not have any material credit risk exposure 
to any single debtor or group of debtors under financial instruments entered by the economic entity.  

Foreign currency risk management 

The  consolidated  entity  and  company  undertake  certain  transactions  denominated  in  foreign  currencies, 
hence  exposures  to  exchange  rate  fluctuations  arise.  Sihayo  Gold  Limited  has  opened  a  US  Dollar  Bank 
Account to manage exchange rate fluctuations.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
TO THE MEMBERS OF  
SIHAYO GOLD LIMITED 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report  

Qualified Opinion 

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

In our opinion, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our 
report,  the  accompanying  financial  report  of  the  Group  is  in  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001, 
including:  

(i) 

giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Group’s  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2018  and  of  its  financial 
performance for the year then ended; and  

(ii) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.  

Basis for Qualified Opinion 

As  disclosed  in  note  15,  Group’s  Indonesian  subsidiary,  PT  Sorikmas  Mining  has  received  an  assessment 
from the  Indonesian tax authorities  in July 2018 claiming underpayment of taxes of approximately $551,523 
(Indonesian Rupiah 5.8 billion) for 2013 tax year. PT Sorikmas Mining intends to submit objection and appeal 
against this assessment. No liability is acknowledged or accounted for in this financial report. 

The Group has not accrued any liability on the basis that PT Sorikmas Mining will lodge an appeal against this 
assessment.  We  were  unable  to  obtain  sufficient  appropriate  audit  evidence  about  the  tax  assessment  to 
enable us to form an opinion as to the completeness and accuracy of the  assessment and the probability of 
PT  Sorikmas  Mining  being  successful  in  their  appeal.  Consequently,  we  were  unable  to  determine  whether 
any Liability should have been accrued at the reporting date and the adequacy of the disclosure as contingent 
liability made in the Consolidated Financial Report.  

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

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

Emphasis of Matter - Material Uncertainty Relating to Going Concern  

Attention is drawn to the following matter. 

As  referred  to  in  Note  1(a)  to  the  financial  statements,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been 
prepared  on  the  going  concern  basis.    At  30  June  2018,  the  Group  had  cash  and  cash  equivalents  of 
$116,210, net working capital deficiency of $3,289,968 and incurred a loss after income tax of $2,673,862.  

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern and meet its planned exploration, administration and 
other commitments is dependent upon the Group raising further working capital and/or successfully exploiting 
its  mineral  assets.  In  the  event  that  the  Group  is  not  successful  in  raising  further  equity  or  successfully

exploiting its mineral assets, the Group may not be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due and the 
realisable value of the Group’s current and non-current assets may be significantly less than book values. 

Key Audit Matters 

In addition to the matter described in the material uncertainty related to going concern, we have determined 
the matter described below to be a key audit matter to be communicated in the report. 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit 
of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the 
financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on 
these matters. 

Key Audit Matters 

How the matter was addressed in the audit 

Carrying Value of Mineral Exploration and 
Evaluation Expenditure 

As  at  30  June  2018,  Mineral  Exploration  and 
Evaluation Expenditure totals $13,609,555 (refer to 
Note 6 of the financial report).   

The  carrying  value  of  Mineral  Exploration  and 
Evaluation  Expenditure  is  a  key  audit  matter  due 
to:

Other Information 

The  directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  the  information 
included  in  the  Group's  annual  report  for  the  year  ended  30  June  2018,  but  does  not  include  the  financial 
report and our auditor's report thereon. 

Our  opinion  on the financial  report does  not  cover  the  other  information  and  accordingly we  do  not express 
any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
In  connection  with  our  audit  of  the  financial  report,  our  responsibility  is  to  read the  other  information  and,  in 
doing  so,  consider  whether  the  other  information  is  materially  inconsistent  with  the  financial  report  or  our 
knowledge  obtained  in  the  audit  or  otherwise  appears  to  be  materially  misstated.  If,  based  on  the  work  we 
have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required 
to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

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

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

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

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

As part of an audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and 
maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit 
evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. 

The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material 
misstatement  of  the  financial  report,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error.  In  making  those  risk  assessments,  the 
auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and 
fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose 
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. 

The  risk  of  not  detecting  a  material  misstatement  resulting  from  fraud  is  higher  than  for  one  resulting  from 
error,  as  fraud  may  involve  collusion,  forgery,  intentional  omissions,  misrepresentations,  or  the  override  of 
internal control. 

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of 
accounting  estimates  made  by  the  Directors,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall  presentation  of  the  financial 
report. 

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

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

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

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

The  Auditing  Standards  require  that  we  comply  with  relevant  ethical  requirements  relating  to  audit 
engagements.  We  also  provide  the  Directors  with  a  statement  that  we  have  complied  with  relevant  ethical 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that 
may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 

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

Report on the Remuneration Report  

Opinion on the Remuneration Report  

We  have  audited  the  Remuneration  Report  included  in  pages  16  to  19  of  the  directors’  report  for  the  year 
ended 30 June 2018. 

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

Responsibilities 

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