16.  Business Risks and Uncertainties 

There are a number of risks that may have a material and adverse impact on the future operating and financial 
performance  of  the  Company.  These  include  the  risks  discussed  in  Note  26  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements, along with risks that are widespread and associated with any form of business and specific risks 
associated with the Company’s business and its involvement in the exploration and mining industry generally 
and in Peru in particular. While most risk factors are largely beyond the control of the Company, the Company 
will seek to mitigate the risks where possible. 

17.  Incomplete Records 

The  Company  was  under  External  administration  from  25  August  2015  to  4  October  2017,  the  financial 
information relating to the period 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2016 and 1 January 2017 to 4 October 2017 
was not subject to the same accounting and internal control processes, which include the implementation and 
maintenance of internal controls that are relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report.  

Due to there being incomplete records, there may be actions that were taken by the previous directors and 
officers of the Company and its subsidiaries that the existing board is not aware of. Whilst the Directors are 
confident the Deed of Company Arrangement process deals with any outstanding liabilities at the parent entity 
level  (as it  was  the only  entity  subject to the  Deed  of  Company  Arrangement), there  is a  risk  that  previous 
unknown actions may adversely affect the Company’s operations and financial position, including those of its 
retained subsidiaries. 

18.  Rounding 

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Instrument 2016/191 dated 24 March 2016 and in accordance 
with that Class Order, amounts in the financial report and the Directors’ Report have been rounded off to the

when they become due and payable.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

1.  GENERAL INFORMATION 

Corporate Information 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Titan  Minerals  Limited  (“Parent  Entity”  or  “Company”)  and  its 
controlled entities (collectively as “Consolidated Entity” or “the Group”) for the year ended 31 December 
2017 were  authorised for  issue  in accordance  with a  resolution  of  the directors  on 29  March 2018.  The 
Parent Entity is a for-profit company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly 
traded on the Australian Stock Exchange.  

The Group’s principal activities during the course of the financial year were exploration of copper and gold 
exploration concessions and development and production of a portfolio of medium sized gold projects in 
South America, with a primary focus on Peru. In addition the Company was the owner and operator of a 
gold and copper toll processing plant in Peru (San Santiago). 

Further  information  on  nature  of  the  operations  and  principal  activities  of  the  Group  is  provided  in  the 
directors’ report. Information on the Group’s structure and other related party relationships are provided in 
notes 18 and 25. 

The Group’s registered office is in Suite 7, 295 Rokeby Road, Subiaco, WA 6008 Australia.  

2.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

a)  Statement of compliance 

The  financial  report  is  a  general  purpose  financial  report  that  has  been  prepared  in  accordance  with 
Australian  Accounting  Standards,  Australian  Accounting 
Interpretations,  other  authoritative 
pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001, 
to the maximum extent possible given the points raised below in 2b). Australian Accounting Standards set 
out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant 
and  reliable  information  about  transactions,  events  and  conditions  to  which  they  apply.  The  financial 
statements  and  notes  also  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  as  issued  by  the 
International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) to the maximum extent possible given the points raised 
below in 2b). Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented 
below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. 

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors’ on 29 March 2018. 

b) 

Incomplete Records 

a) The financial report for the year ended 31 December 2017 has been prepared by Directors who received 
custodianship of the operations of the Group upon effectuation of the Deed of Company Arrangement and 
resignation of the Administrator on or after 4 October 2017. As such, the Directors did not have control of 
the company until control was transferred to them on the effectuation of the deed of company arrangement 
on 4 October 2017.  

b)  Prior  to  4  October  2017,  the  current  Directors  did  not  have  oversight  or  control  over  the  Company’s 
financial reporting systems including but not limited to being able to obtain access to complete accounting 
records  of  the  Company.  To  prepare  the  financial  reports  for  the  year  ended  31  December  2017,  the 
Directors  have  reconstructed  the  financial  records  of  the  company  for  the  period  1  January  2017  to  4 
October 2017 using data extracted from the Company’s accounting system. However, there may have been 
information  that the current Directors were not able to obtain, the impact of which may  or may not have 
been material on the financial performance for the year ended 31 December 2017. 

c) The current Directors have not been able to source books and records of the Company’s subsidiaries up 
to 4 October 2017 when the ownership of the subsidiaries was transferred to the creditors’ trust.  

Consequently, although the Directors have prepared this financial report for the year ended 31 December 
2017 to the best of  their knowledge based on the information  made  available  to  them, they  were  of  the 
opinion that it was not possible to state that these financial reports have been prepared in accordance with 
Australian Accounting Standards including Australian interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements 
of the Australian Accounting Standard Board and the Corporations Act 2001, nor was it possible to state 

15 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

these financial reports gave a true and fair view of the Group’s financial performance for the year ended 31 
December 2017. 

It should be noted that the matters referred to in items (a) to (c) above were also relevant for the year ended 
31 December 2016 which are presented as comparative figures in this report. 

c)  Basis of preparation 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost.  Cost is based 
on  the  fair  values  of  the  consideration  given  in  exchange  for  assets.    All  amounts  are  presented  in 
Australian Dollars unless otherwise noted.  The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC 
Instrument 2016/191 and in accordance with that Legislative Instrument, amounts are rounded off to the 
nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated. 

The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. 

d)  Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty 

In the application of AIFRS management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about 
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and 
associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to 
be  reasonable  under  the  circumstance,  the  results  of  which  form  the  basis  of  making  the  judgements.  
Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions  are reviewed on an ongoing basis.  Revisions to accounting 
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period 
or in the  period  of  the revision and future periods  if the  revision affects both current  and future periods. 
Refer to Note 3 for a discussion of critical judgements in applying the entity’s accounting policies and key 
sources of estimation uncertainty. 

e)  New and Revised Standards that are effective for these Financial Statements  

The AASB has issued a number of new and revised Accounting Standards and Interpretations are effective 
for annual periods beginning or after 1 January 2017. These new and revised standards are:

2(i) (ix) which details the joint arrangements policy of the Group.  

f)  Standards issued but not yet effective and not early adopted by the Company

Except  for  certain  trade  receivables,  an  entity  initially 
measures  a  financial  asset  at  its  fair  value  plus,  in  the 
case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or 
loss (FVTPL), transaction costs.

Debt instruments are subsequently measured at FVTPL,

contractual  cash  flows  and  the  business  model  under 
which the debt instruments are held. 

value 

There  is  a  fair  value  option  (FVO)  that  allows  financial 
assets on initial recognition to be designated as FVTPL if 
that  eliminates  or  significantly  reduces  an  accounting 
mismatch. 

Equity  instruments  are  generally  measured  at  FVTPL. 
However,  entities  have  an  irrevocable  option  on  an 
instrument-by-instrument basis to present changes in the

fair  value  of  non-trading 
comprehensive

reclassification to profit or loss.

income 

For  financial  liabilities  designated  as  FVTPL  using  the 
FVO,  the  amount  of  change  in  the  fair  value  of  such 
financial liabilities that is attributable to changes in credit 
risk  must  be  presented  in  OCI.  The  remainder  of  the 
change in fair value is presented in profit or loss, unless 
presentation in OCI of the fair value change in respect of 
the  liability’s  credit  risk  would  create  or  enlarge  an 
accounting mismatch in profit or loss. 

All  other  AASB  139  classification  and  measurement 
requirements  for  financial  liabilities  have  been  carried 
forward into AASB 9, including the embedded derivative 
separation rules and the criteria for using the FVO.

contracts with customers, unless the contracts are in the 
scope of other standards, such as AASB 117 Leases (or 
AASB 16 Leases, once applied). 
The core principle of AASB 15 is that an entity recognises 
revenue  to  depict  the  transfer  of  promised  goods  or 
services  to  customers  in  an  amount  that  reflects  the 
consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in 
exchange for those goods or services. An entity  
recognises revenue in accordance with the core principle 
by applying the following steps: 
► Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer 
►  Step  2:  Identify  the  performance  obligations  in  the 
contract  
► Step 3: Determine the transaction price 
►  Step  4:  Allocate  the  transaction  price  to  the 
performance 

obligations in the contract 

►  Step  5:  Recognise  revenue  when  (or  as)  the  entity 
satisfies a performance obligation.

in 

 AASB  16  requires  lessees  to  account  for  all  leases 
under a single balance sheet model in a similar way to 
finance leases under AASB 
117  Leases.  The  standard  includes  two  recognition 
exemptions  for  lessees  –  leases  of  ’low-value’  assets 
(e.g.,  personal  computers)  and  short-term  leases  (i.e., 
leases with a lease term of 12 months or less). 
At  the  commencement  date  of  a  lease,  a  lessee  will 
recognise  a  liability  to  make  lease  payments  (i.e.,  the 
lease liability) and an asset representing the right to use 
the underlying asset during the lease term (i.e., the right-
of-use asset). 
Lessees  will  be  required  to  separately  recognise  the 
the 
interest  expense  on 
depreciation expense on the right-of-use asset. 
Lessees will be required to remeasure the lease liability 
upon the  
occurrence of certain events (e.g., a change in the lease 
term, a change in future lease payments resulting from a 
change  in  an  index  or  rate  used  to  determine  those 
payments).  The  lessee  will  generally  recognise  the 
amount of the remeasurement of the lease liability as an 
adjustment to the right-of-use asset. 
Lessor  accounting  is  substantially  unchanged  from 
today’s  accounting  under  AASB  117.  Lessors  will

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

The Company has not elected to early adopt any new standards or amendments that are issued but not 
yet effective. New standards and amendments will be adopted when they become effective. 

When adopted, the above standards are not expected to have a material impact to the financial statements. 
For AASB 9, it will have no impact on the Group’s results accounting for financial assets as it does not 
have any available for sale assets. There will be no impact on the Group's accounting for financial liabilities, 
as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value 
through profit or loss and the Group does not have any such liabilities. For the AASB 15, the Group has 
made an initial assessment and does not expect to significantly impact the revenue recognition based on 
the existing revenue sources 

g)  Going Concern  

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity 
of  normal business activity,  realisation  of  assets and  the  settlement of  liabilities  in the normal  course  of 
business.  The Consolidated Entity incurred a net profit before income tax of $14,269,000 (2016: net loss 
$947,000),  paid  a  net  operating  cash  outflow  of  $3,085,000  (2016:  $1,115,000)  and  expended  a  net 
investing cash outflow of $191,000 (2016: $Nil) for the year to 31 December 2017. 

The Consolidated Entity is currently in a positive net current asset position, including cash of $2,932,000 
(2016: $58,000).  The Directors are confident that the Group has sufficient cash to fund its activities within 
the next 12 months from the date the financial statements are approved and will be able to meet existing 
commitments  as  they  fall  due.  The  Directors  will  also  continue  to  carefully  manage  discretionary 
expenditure in line with the Group’s cash flow.  

h)  Principles of consolidation 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  financial  statements  of  the  Company  and  entities 
controlled by the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the Company: 

(cid:120) Has power over the investee; 
(cid:120) Is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and 
(cid:120) Has the ability to use its power to affect those returns.  

The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that 
there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.  

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases 
when  the  Company  loses  control  of  the  subsidiary.  Specifically,  income  and  expenses  of  a  subsidiary 
acquired or  disposed of during the  year  are  included in the  consolidated  statement  of  profit or  loss and 
other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company 
ceases to control the subsidiary.  

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners 
of  the  Company  and  to  the  non-controlling  interests.  Total  comprehensive  income  of  subsidiaries  is 
attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-
controlling interests having a deficit balance.  

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting 
policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies.  

All  intragroup  assets  and  liabilities,  equity,  income,  expenses  and  cash  flows  relating  to  transactions 
between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.  

20 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated 
as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value 
of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities 
of  the  subsidiary  and  any  non-controlling  interests.  All  amounts  previously  recognised  in  other 
comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed 
of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another 
category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable IFRSs). The fair value of any investment retained in 
the former subsidiary as the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for 
subsequent accounting under AASB 139, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment 
in an associate or joint venture. 

i)  Significant Accounting Policies 

The following significant policies have been adopted in the preparation of the Financial Report: 

i.Revenue recognition 

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the entity 
and the revenue can be reliably measured.  The following specific recognition criteria must also be met 
before revenue is recognised. 

Sale of goods 
Revenue  from  sales of mineral production and toll  treatment is recognised  when there  has  been  a 
passing of the significant risks and rewards of ownership, which means the following: 
(cid:120)  The product is in a form suitable for delivery and no further processing is required by or on behalf of 

the consolidated entity; 

(cid:120)  The quantity and quality (grade) of the product can be determined with reasonable accuracy; 
(cid:120)  The product has been despatched to the customer and is no longer under the physical control of 

the consolidated entity; 

(cid:120)  The selling price can be measured reliably; 
(cid:120)  It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the consolidated 

entity; and 

(cid:120)  The  costs  incurred,  or  expected  to  be  incurred,  in  respect  of  the  transaction  can  be  measured 

reliably. 

ii.Interest revenue 

Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield 
on the financial asset. 

iii.Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid 
investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, which are subject to an insignificant 
risk of changes in value and have a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. 

Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet. 

iv. 

Inventory 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.  Cost includes expenditure incurred 
in acquiring and bringing the inventories to their existing condition and location but excludes overheads.  
Cost is accounted for as follows: 

(cid:120)  Bullion - average fixed direct costs and variable direct costs. 
(cid:120)  Gold in circuit - average cost. 
(cid:120)  Stores - purchase cost on a first in first out cost method. 
(cid:120)  Ore stockpiles - cost of mining on an average cost method. 
(cid:120)  Work in progress - cost of mining and processing at an average cost method.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

v.Property, plant and equipment 

Property,  plant  and  equipment  are  stated  at  cost  less  depreciation  and  impairment.    Cost  includes 
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item.  In the event that settlement of all 
or  part  of  the  purchase  consideration  is  deferred,  cost  is  determined  by  discounting  the  amounts 
payable in the future to their present value as at the date of acquisition.   

Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment, including freehold buildings but excluding 
land. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the net cost of  each asset 
over  its  expected  useful  life  to  its  estimated  residual  value  commencing  from  the  date  the  asset  is 
available for use.  The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed 
at the end of each annual reporting period. 

Depreciation  on  assets  utilised  in  exploration,  evaluation  and  mine  development  during  the  pre-
production  phase  is  included  in  the  carrying  value  of  Deferred  Exploration  Expenditure  and  Mine 
Assets reflected on the balance sheet. On commencement of production, depreciation is expensed to 
the Income Statement. 

The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation: 
Plant and equipment – mine site 
Plant and equipment – processing plant 
Plant and equipment – other 

life of mine 
10 years 
2-5 years 

vi.Mine assets 

Expenditure on mine properties in production or under development are accumulated and brought to 
account  at  cost  less  accumulated  amortisation  in  respect  of  each  identifiable  area  of  interest. 
Amortisation of capitalised costs is provided on a production output basis, proportional to the depletion 
of the mineral resource of each area of interest expected to be ultimately economically recoverable. 

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.  Should the carrying value of expenditure not 
yet amortised exceed its estimated recoverable amount in any period, the excess is written off to the 
income statement. 

Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for 
an individual asset, unless the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value 
less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other 
assets  or  groups  of  assets,  in  which  case,  the  recoverable  amount  is  determined  for  the  cash-
generating unit to which it belongs. 

Pre-production  revenue  from  gold  sales  derived  from  mine  development  ore  is  netted  off  against 
capitalised mine development expenditure. 

vii. Impairment of assets 

At  each  reporting  date,  the  Consolidated  Entity  reviews  the  carrying  amounts  of  its  tangible  and 
intangible  assets  to  determine  whether  there  is  any  indication  that  those  assets  have  suffered  an 
impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order 
to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).  Where the asset does not generate cash flows 
that are independent from other assets, the Consolidated Entity estimates the recoverable amount of 
the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.  In assessing 
value  in  use,  the  estimated future cash  flows  are  discounted to their present value using a pre-tax 
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific 
to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. 

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying 
amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount.  
An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.   

22 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating 
unit)  is  increased  to  the  revised  estimate  of  its  recoverable  amount,  but  only  to  the  extent  that  the 
increased carrying amount does not exceed the  carrying amount that would have been determined 
had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal 
of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 

viii. Deferred exploration expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure for each area of interest is carried forward as an asset provided 
that one of the following conditions is met: 
(cid:120) 

Such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the 
area of interest or, alternatively, by its sale; or 
Exploration  activities  in  the  area  of  interest  have  not  yet  reached  a  stage  which  permits  a 
reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and 
active and significant operations in relation to the area are continuing. 

(cid:120) 

Exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure,  which  fails  to  meet  at  least  one  of  the  conditions  outlined 
above, is written off. 

Identifiable exploration assets acquired from another mining company are carried as assets at their 
cost of acquisition.  Exploration assets acquired are reassessed on a regular basis and these costs 
are carried forward provided that at  least one of the conditions outlined above are met. Exploration 
and  evaluation  expenditure  incurred  subsequent  to  acquisition  in  respect  of  an  exploration  asset 
acquired, is accounted for in accordance with the policy outlined above for exploration incurred by or 
on behalf  of  the entity.  Exploration  and  evaluation expenditure  assets are  assessed  for impairment 
when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset 
may exceed its recoverable amount.  

The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is estimated to determine the extent 
of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount 
of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that 
the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined 
had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous years. Where a decision is made to 
proceed  with  development  in  respect  of  a  particular  area  of  interest,  the  relevant  exploration  and 
evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to mine assets. 

ix. Investments in associates and joint ventures 

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the 
power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or 
joint control over those policies.  

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement 
have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing 
of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require 
unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.  

The  results  and  assets  and  liabilities  of  associates  or  joint  ventures  are  incorporated  in  these 
consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting, except with the investment, 
or a portion thereof, is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance with 
AASB 5. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or joint venture is initially recognised 
in the consolidated statements of financial position  at cost and  adjusted thereafter to recognise  the 
Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. 
When the Group share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group’s interest in that 
associate  or  joint  venture,  the  Group  discontinue  recognising  its  share  of  further  losses.  Additional 
losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations 
or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.  

23 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

An investment in an associate or a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date 
on which the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture. On acquisition of the investment in an 
associate or a joint venture, any excess of the cost of the investment over the Group’s share of the net 
fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the investee is recognised  as goodwill, which is 
included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair 
value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment, after reassessment, is 
recognised immediately in profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.  

The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when the investment ceases to be 
an associate or a joint venture, or when the investment is classified as held for sale.  

When a group entity  transacts with an associate  or a joint venture of the Group, profits  and losses 
resulting  from  the  transactions  with  the  associate  or  joint  venture  are  recognised  in  the  Group’s 
consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interest in the associate or joint venture that are 
not related to the Group.  

x. 

Business combinations 

Acquisitions  of  businesses  are  accounted  for  using  the  acquisition  method.  The  consideration 
transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value which is calculated as the sum of the 
acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the 
former owners of the acquire and the equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control 
of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. 

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at 
their fair value, except that: 

(cid:120)  deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements 
are  recognised  and  measured  in  accordance  with  AASB  112  ‘Income  Taxes’  and  AASB  119 
‘Employee Benefits’ respectively; 

(cid:120) 

liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or 
share-based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment 
arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’ 
at the acquisition date; and 

(cid:120)  assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with AASB 5 ‘Non-
current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’ are measured in accordance with that 
Standard. 

Goodwill is measured as  the excess of the  sum of the  consideration transferred, the amount  of any 
non-controlling  interests  in  the  acquiree,  and  the  fair  value  of  the  acquirer’s  previously  held  equity 
interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets 
acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of 
the  identifiable  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  exceeds  the  sum  of  the  consideration 
transferred,  the  amount  of  any  non-controlling  interests  in  the  acquiree  and  the  fair  value  of  the 
acquirer’s previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit 
or loss as a bargain purchase gain. 

Where  the  consideration  transferred  by  the  Group  in  a  business  combination  includes  assets  or 
liabilities  resulting  from  a  contingent  consideration  arrangement,  the  contingent  consideration  is 
measured at its acquisition-date fair value. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration 
that  qualify  as  measurement  period  adjustments  are  adjusted  retrospectively,  with  corresponding 
adjustments  against  goodwill.  Measurement  period  adjustments  are  adjustments  that  arise  from 
additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from 
the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. 

The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of contingent consideration that do not qualify 
as  measurement  period  adjustments  depends  on  how  the  contingent  consideration  is  classified. 
Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates 
and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration that is classified 

24 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

as  an  asset  or  liability  is  remeasured  at  subsequent  reporting  dates  in  accordance  with  AASB  139 
‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement; or AASB 137 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities 
and Contingent Assets’, as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognised in profit 
or loss. 

Where a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held equity interest in the 
acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date (i.e. the date when the Group attains control) 
and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognised in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in 
the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in other comprehensive 
income are reclassified to profit or loss where such treatment would be appropriate if that interest were 
disposed of. 

If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in 
which  the  combination  occurs,  the  Group  reports  provisional  amounts  for  the  items  for  which  the 
accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period (see 
above), or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts 
and  circumstances  that  existed  as  of  the  acquisition  date  that,  if  known,  would  have  affected  the 
amounts recognised as of that date. 

xi. 

 Royalties 

Royalty expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant 
agreement (provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of expense can 
be measured reliably). Royalty arrangements that are based on production, sales and other measures 
are recognised by reference to the underlying arrangement. 

xii. 

Trade and other payables 

Trade payables and other accounts payable are recognised when the Consolidated Entity becomes 
obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. 

xiii. 

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Consolidated Entity has a present obligation, the future sacrifice 
of  economic  benefits  is  probable,  and  the  amount  of  the  provision  can  be  measured  reliably.  The 
amount  recognised  as  a  provision  is  the  best  estimate  of  the  consideration  required  to  settle  the 
present  obligation at  reporting  date,  taking into account  the risks and  uncertainties surrounding the 
obligation.    Where  a  provision  is  measured  using  the  cash  flows  estimated  to  settle  the  present 
obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. 

Provision for restoration and rehabilitation  
A provision for restoration and rehabilitation is recognised when there is a present obligation as a result 
of exploration, development, production, transportation or storage activities undertaken, it is probable 
that  an  outflow  of  economic benefits will  be  required  to  settle  the obligation  and  the amount of the 
provision can be measured reliably. 

The provision for future restoration costs is the best estimate of the present value of the expenditure 
required  to  settle  the  restoration  obligation  as  at  the  reporting  date.    Future  restoration  costs  are 
reviewed annually and any change in the estimates are reflected in the present value of the restoration 
provision at reporting date. 

The initial estimate of the restoration and rehabilitation provision relating to exploration, development 
and production facilities  is capitalised into the cost of  the related asset and amortised  on the same 
basis  as  the  related  asset,  unless  the  present  value  arises  from  the  production  of  inventory  in  the 
period, in which case the amount is included in the cost of production for the period.  Changes in the 
estimate of the provision for restoration and rehabilitation are treated in the same manner, except that 
the unwinding of the effect of discounting on the provision is recognised as a finance cost rather than 
being capitalised into the cost of the related asset.

xiv.  Employee benefits 

Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave 
and long service  leave when  it is probable that  settlement will be  required and they are  capable of 
being measured reliably. 

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits expected to be settled wholly within twelve months, 
are measured  at their  nominal values using the  remuneration rate  expected to apply  at  the  time of 
settlement. 

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits which are not expected to be settled within twelve 
months are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made in respect 
of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. 

Defined contribution plans 
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed when incurred. 

xv.Financial assets 

Other  financial  assets  are  classified  into  the  following  specified  categories:  financial  assets  ‘at  fair 
value  through  profit  or  loss’,  ‘held-to-maturity  investments’,  ‘available-for-sale’  financial  assets,  and 
‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets 
and is determined at the time of initial recognition.  The Group’s “other financial Assets” held during 
the year comprise solely of assets classified as “loans and receivables”. 

Effective interest method 
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of 
allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly 
discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where 
appropriate, a shorter period. 

Income is recognised on an effective interest rate basis for debt instruments other than those financial 
assets ‘at fair value through profit or loss’. 

Loans and receivables 
Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are 
not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are 
measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective  interest  method  less  impairment.    Interest  is 
recognised by applying the effective interest rate. 

Impairment of financial assets 
Financial  assets  are  assessed  for  indicators  of  impairment  at  the  end  of  each  reporting  period. 
Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of 
one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future 
cash flows of the investment have been affected. 

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be 
impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence 
of  impairment  for  a  portfolio  of  receivables  could  include  the  Group’s  past  experience  of  collecting 
payments,  an  increase  in  the  number  of  delayed  payments  in  the  portfolio  past  the  average  credit 
period of 60 days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate 
with  default  on  receivables.    For  financial  assets  carried  at  amortised  cost,  the  amount  of  the 
impairment  loss  recognised  is  the  difference  between  the  asset’s  carrying  amount  and  the  present 
value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. 

For financial assets carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference 
between  the  asset’s  carrying  amount  and  the  present  value  of  the  estimated  future  cash  flows 

26 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will 
not be reversed in subsequent periods. 

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial 
assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use 
of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against 
the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against 
the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in 
profit or loss. 

For  financial  assets  measured  at  amortised  cost,  if,  in  a  subsequent  period,  the  amount  of  the 
impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the 
impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or 
loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed 
does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised. 

xvi.Financial Liabilities 

Borrowings and other financial liabilities (including trade payables but excluding derivative liabilities) 
are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred and are subsequently stated at 
amortised  cost.  Any  difference  between  the  amounts  originally  received  for  borrowings  and  other 
financial  liabilities  (net  of  transaction  costs)  and  the  redemption  value  is  recognised  in  the  income 
statement over the period to maturity using the effective interest method. 

Fair value  
Fair  value  is  the  amount  at  which  a  financial  instrument  could  be  exchanged  in  an  arm’s  length 
transaction between informed and willing parties. Where relevant market prices are available, these 
have  been  used  to  determine  fair  values.  In  other  cases,  fair  values  have  been  calculated  using 
quotations  from  independent  financial  institutions,  or  by  using  valuation  techniques  consistent  with 
general market practice applicable to the instrument.  

(a)  The  fair  values  of  cash,  short-term  borrowings  and  loans  to  joint  ventures  and  associates 
approximate to their carrying values, as a result of their short maturity or because they carry 
floating rates of interest. 

(b)  The fair values of medium and long-term borrowings are calculated as the present value of 
the estimated future cash flows using quoted prices in active markets or an appropriate market 
based yield curve. The carrying value of the borrowings is amortised cost.  

Effective interest method 
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and 
of  allocating  interest  expense  over  the  relevant  period.  The  effective  interest  rate  is  the  rate  that 
exactly discounts estimated future cash outflows through the expected life of the financial liability, or, 
where appropriate, a shorter period. 

An expense is recognised on an effective interest rate basis for debt instruments other than those 
financial assets ‘at fair value through profit or loss’. 

xvii.Issued Capital 

Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company.  Any 
transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction 
of the share proceeds received. 

xviii. 

Foreign currency 

Foreign currency transactions 
The individual financial statements of each group entity are presented in its functional currency being 
the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. For the purpose of the 
consolidated  financial  statements, the  results  and financial position of  each  entity  are  expressed in 

27 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

Australian  dollars,  which  is  the  functional  currency  of  Titan  Minerals  Limited  and  the  presentation 
currency for the consolidated financial statements. 
All foreign currency transactions during the financial year are brought to account using the exchange 
rate in effect at the  date of the transaction.   Foreign currency  monetary items  at  reporting date are 
translated at the exchange rate existing at reporting date.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities carried 
at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the date 
when the fair value was determined.  Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the year 
in which they arise except that exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to 
a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned or likely to occur, which form part of the net 
investment  in  a  foreign  operation,  are  recognised  in  the  foreign  currency  translation  reserve  in  the 
consolidated financial statements and recognised in consolidated profit or loss on disposal of the net 
investment. 

Foreign operations 
On  consolidation,  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  Consolidated  Entity’s  overseas  operations  are 
translated at exchange rates prevailing at the yearend closing rate.  Income and expense items are 
translated at the average exchange rates for the year unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly.  
Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve, and 
recognised in profit or loss on disposal of the foreign operation. 

xix.  Goods and services tax 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), 
except: 

(i)  where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised 

as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or 

(ii) 

for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST. 

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of 
receivables or payables.  Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis.  The 
GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, 
or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows. 

xx. 

Share-based payments 

Equity-settled  share-based  payments  with  employees  and  others  providing  similar  services  are 
measured at the fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. The expected life used in the 
model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, 
exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. 

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed 
on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  vesting  period,  based  on  the  Group’s  estimate  of  shares  that  will 
eventually vest. 

Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with other parties are measured at the fair value of 
the goods and services received, except where the fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which 
case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date the 
entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the service. 

For  cash-settled  share-based  payments,  a  liability  equal  to  the  portion  of  the  goods  or  services 
received is recognised at the current fair value determined at each reporting date. 

xxi.Income tax 

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. 

Current tax 
Current tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit 
as reported in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or 

28 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

expense that are taxable or deductible in other periods and items that are never taxable or deductible. 
The  company’s  liability  for  current  tax  is  calculated  using  tax  rates  that  have  been  enacted  or 
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting year. 

Deferred tax 
Deferred  tax  is  recognised  on  temporary  differences  between  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and 
liabilities  in  the  financial  statements  and  the  corresponding  tax  bases  used  in  the  computation  of 
taxable  profit.  Deferred  tax liabilities  are  generally recognised for  all taxable temporary  differences. 
Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that 
it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences 
can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference 
arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets 
and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. 

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments 
in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the company is able to 
control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not 
reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences 
associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable 
that  there  will  be  sufficient  taxable  profits  against  which  to  utilise  the  benefits  of  the  temporary 
differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced 
to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or 
part of the asset to be recovered. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period 
in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been 
enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax 
liabilities and  assets reflects the  tax consequences that  would  follow from the manner  in which the 
company expects,  at the end of the reporting  period,  to recover or settle the carrying amount of  its 
assets and liabilities. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current 
tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same 
taxation authority and the company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net 
basis. 

Current and deferred tax for the period 

Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when they 
relate to items that are recognised outside profit or loss (whether in other comprehensive income or 
directly in equity), in which case the tax is also recognised outside profit or loss, or where they arise 
from the initial accounting for a business combination. In the case of a business combination, the tax 
effect is included in the accounting for the business combination. 

xxii. 

Leasing 

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the 
risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. 

3.  CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION 

UNCERTAINTY 

The following are the key estimates that management has made in the process of applying the Group’s 
accounting  policies  and  that  have  the  most  significant  effects  on  the  amounts  recognised  in  the 
financial statements. 

29 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

(a) Determination of mineral resources and ore reserves 

The  Group  estimates  its  mineral  resources  and  ore  reserves  in  accordance  with  the  Australian 
Code  of  Reporting  of  Exploration  Results,  Mineral  Resources  and  Ore  Reserves  (the  “JORC 
Code”).  The  information  on  mineral  resources  and  ore  reserves  is  prepared  by  or  under  the 
supervision  of  Competent  Persons  as  defined  in  the  JORC  Code.  The  amounts  presented  are 
based on the mineral resources and ore reserves determined under the JORC Code. 

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral resources and ore reserves and 
assumptions that are valid at the time of estimation may change significantly when new information 
becomes available. 

Changes in the forecast prices of commodities, exchange rates, production costs or recovery rates 
may  change  the  economic  status  of  reserves  and  may,  ultimately,  result  in  the  reserves  being 
restated.  Such  changes  in  reserves  could  impact  on  depreciation  and  amortisation  rates,  asset 
carrying values and provisions for restoration and rehabilitation. 

(b) Estimation for the provision for restoration and rehabilitation 

Provision for rehabilitation and dismantling property, plant and equipment is estimated taking into 
consideration facts and circumstances available at the balance sheet date.  This estimate is based 
on  the  expenditure  required  to  undertake  the  rehabilitation  and  dismantling,  taking  into 
consideration the time value of money. 

(c)  Impairment of property, plant and equipment 

The  Group  reviews  for  impairment  of  property,  plant  and  equipment,  in  accordance  with  its 
accounting  policy.  The  recoverable  amount  of  these  assets  has  been  determined  based  on  the 
higher of the assets’ fair value less costs to sell and value in use.  These calculations require the 
use of estimates and judgements. 

In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market-observable data to the 
extent  it  is  available.  The  Group  may  engage  the  assistance  of  third  parties  to  establish  the 
appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the valuation model. 

(d) Impairment of capitalised mine assets and deferred exploration expenditure 

The future expected recoverability of capitalised mine development expenditure is dependent on a 
number of factors, including the level of proved, probable and inferred mineral resources, future 
technological  changes  which  could  impact  the  cost  of  mining,  future  legal  changes  (including 
changes to environment restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. 

To the extent that capitalised mine development expenditure is determined not to be recoverable 
in the future, this will reduce profits and net assets in the year in which this determination is made. 

4.  SEGMENT INFORMATION 

Identification of Reportable Segments 

The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed  and 
used by the Board (the chief operating decision-maker) in assessing performance and in determining the 
allocation of resources. The operating segments are identified by the Board based on reporting lines and 
the nature of services provided. Discrete financial information about each of these operating segments is 
reported to the Board on a monthly basis. The Company operates predominately in Peru. The reportable 
segments  are  based  on  aggregated  operating  segments  determined  by  the  similarity  of  the  services 
provided and other factors.  

30 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

Segments 

The Group has two reportable operating segments which are the same as its geographical segments, these 
are Peru and the USA. The information is further analysed based on the mineral sold within the region.  

Segment  result  represents  the  profit  or  loss  earned  by  each  segment  without  allocation  of  corporate 
administration costs, investment revenue and finance costs or income tax expense.  This is the measure 
reported to the chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of 
segment performance. 

Holding Company 

Holding Company costs (or unallocated costs, assets and liabilities) are those costs which are managed 
on a Group basis and not allocated to business segments. They include costs associated with executive 
management, strategic planning and compliance costs. 

Accounting Policies 

The  accounting  policies  of  the  reportable  segments  are  the  same  as  the  Group’s  accounting  policies 
described  in  Note  2.  Segment  profit  represents  the  profit  earned  by  each  segment  without  allocation  of 
central  administration  costs  and  directors’  salaries,  share  of  profits  of  associates,  gain  recognised  on 
disposal of interest in former associate, investment income, gains and losses, finance costs and income 
tax  expense.  This  is  the  measure  reported  to  the  chief  operating  decision  maker  for  the  purposes  of 
resource allocation and assessment of segment performance.

* When the directors resumed custodianship of the Company it was noted that the San Santiago plant 
has a provision for impairment that brought the book value to 0. The directors obtained a third-party 
valuation report on the San Santiago plant from Primero Group Pty Ltd to ascertain what the fair value of 
the plant should be now that the Company was out of administration. The valuator used an order of 
magnitude valuation estimate and arrived at a fair value of US$1,302,500. The directors approved a 
conservative approach to reverse the provision for impairment back to an ascribed fair value of 
AU$1,000,000 for the San Santiago plant. 

* The Company was under External administration from 25 August 2015 to 4 October 2017,

* When the directors resumed custodianship of the Company it was noted that a large portion of the

the Company’s acquisition of the subsidiaries. It is directors expectation that the Company will not settle 
these outstanding liabilities within the next 12 months as the validity of the liabilities cannot be confirmed, 
and therefore have classified these liabilities as non-current.

operations, or the state of the affairs of the Group in the future financial years, other than: 

On the 8 February 2018, 209,357 unlisted options expired. 

On the 26 March 2018 Titan Minerals Limited entered into a bid implementation agreement (BIA) with 
Andina Resources Limited, by which Titan will acquire all of the issued share capital in Andina via an 
off-market takeover bid. Andina is a Peru focussed unlisted public company incorporated in Australia. 
Under the bid, Andina shareholders will receive 1 fully paid ordinary share in the capital of Titan for 
every 1.18 Andina shares held (for a total of 561,656,385 Titan shares to be issued should 100% of 
Andina shareholders accept the bid).

26.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 
The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets 
and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group 
uses  different  methods  to  measure  different  types  of  risk  to  which  it  is  exposed.  These  methods 
include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, price and foreign exchange risks and ageing 
analysis for credit and liquidity risk. 

Risk management is carried out by senior management under direction of the Board of Directors. The 
Board provides  principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas. 
The consolidated entity is not materially exposed to changes in interest rates in its activities. 

The material financial instruments to which the Group has exposure include:  
(i)       Cash and short-term deposits; 
(ii)      Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss; 
(iii)     Receivables; and 
(iv)     Accounts payable.

The  Group  operates  internationally  and  is  exposed  to  foreign  exchange  risk  arising  primarily  from  its 
subsidiaries, primarily with respect to the US dollar.  

Foreign  exchange risk arises from future  commercial transactions and recognised assets  and liabilities 
denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. 

The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated assets and monetary liabilities at the 
end of the reporting year are as follows:

Interest Rate Risk 
All  the  consolidated  entity’s  financial  instruments  that  are  exposed  to  interest  rate  risk  are  either  non-
interest bearing, bear interest at commercial interest rates or at fixed rates. The weighted average interest 
rate  on  cash  and  short-term  deposits  at  31  December  2017  was  0.5%  (31  December  2016:  -%).  All 
receivables, other financial assets and payables are non-interest bearing. 

(b)  Credit Risk 
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the consolidated entity to credit risk, consist primarily of 
cash  and  short-term deposits.  Credit risk on  cash,  short  term  deposits  and  trade receivables  is largely 
minimised by dealing with companies with acceptable credit ratings. 

The consolidated entity has no reason to believe credit losses will arise from any of the above financial 
instruments.    However,  the  maximum  amount  of  loss,  which  may  possibly  be  realised,  is  the  carrying 
amount of the financial instrument. 

Cash in Australia is held with National Australia Bank Limited which is an appropriate financial institution 
with an external credit rating of AA-. Cash in the US was held with First Republic Bank which is considered 
to be an appropriate financial institution with an external credit rating of A.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

(c)  Liquidity Risk 
Liquidity  risk arises  from the possibility  that  the  Group might encounter  difficulty  in  settling  its  debts  or 
otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. Management monitors the rolling forecasts 
of the Group’s cash and fair value assets based on expected cash flows. This is generally carried out at a 
local level in the operating companies of the Group in accordance with the practise and limits set by the 
Group. 

(d)  Capital Risk management 
The  Group’s  objectives  when  managing  capital  are  to  safeguard  their  ability  to  continue  as  a  going 
concern, so that they can continue to maintain a suitable capital structure and fulfil the objectives of the 
Group. 

* The Company was under External administration from 25 August 2015 to 4 October 2017, 
consequently the Company did not have sufficient information to allow the level of 
disclosure required for the year ended 31 December 2016 and 31 December 2017.

At  the  General  Meeting  held  on  18  December  2016,  shareholders  approved  to  grant  80,500,000 
performance  rights  as  remuneration  (Class  A,  B,  C).  The  rights  entitled  the  directors  and  company 
secretary to shares in Titan Minerals Limited on  achievement of market conditions. Under the plan, the 
participant was granted performance rights which only vest if certain market conditions are met. 

The amount of rights  that  will vest depends on the achievement of  three market-based conditions.  The 
three conditions are market-based condition related to achieving a 10-day volume weighted average price 
of shares on the ASX of greater than $0.05, $0.06 and $0.07 respectively. 

Performance rights convert to shares on the date of vesting with no exercise price or share issue price 
being payable. 

Set  out  below  is  the  summary  of  rights  granted  and  approved  by  shareholders.  Management  have 
assessed the likelihood of the rights vesting and have estimated that Class A, B and C market conditions 
are expected to be achieved prior to expiry.

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report  

Disclaimer of Opinion 

We were engaged to audit the financial report of Titan Minerals Limited (formerly known as Minera Gold 
Limited), the Company and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement 
of financial position as at 31 December 2017, the consolidated statement of 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. 

Because of the significance of the matters described in the Basis of Disclaimer of Opinion section of 
our report, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for 
an Audit Opinion on  the financial report.  Accordingly,  we do not express an opinion  on the financial 
report for the year ended 31 December 2017. 

Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion 

During the period 1 January 2017 to 4 October 2017, the Company was subject to a Deed of Company 
Arrangement  (“DOCA”)  and  therefore  under  external  administration.  On  4  October  2017  the 
recapitalisation of the Company was completed and the DOCA was fully effectuated. Accordingly, on 4 
October 2017 the Company exited external administration and the control of the Company was passed 
to the Company directors. 

As disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the directors of the Company did not have control of 
the company until control was transferred to them on the effectuation of the DOCA on 4 October 2017. 
Consequently, the financial information relating to the period from 1 January 2017 to 4 October 2017 
was  not  subject  to  the  same  accounting  and  internal  control  processes,  which  includes  the 
implementation  and  maintenance  of  internal  controls  that  are  relevant  to  the  preparation  and  fair 
presentation of the financial report, Whilst the books and records of the Group have been reconstructed 
to the maximum extent possible, we were unable to satisfy  ourselves as to the completeness of the 
general ledger and financial records as well as the relevant disclosures in the financial report. 

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Report 

Management  is  responsible  for  the  preparation  and  fair  presentation  of  the  financial  report  in 
accordance  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  for  such  internal  control  as  management 
determines  is  necessary  to  enable  the  preparation  of  the  financial  report  that  is  free  from  material 
misstatement,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error.  In  preparing  the  financial  report,  management  is 
responsible  for  assessing  the  ability  of  the  Group  to  continue  as  a  going  concern,  disclosing,  as 

Liability limited by a scheme approved  
under Professional Standards Legislation 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless 
management either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative 
but  to  do  so.  Those  charged  with  governance  are  responsible  for  overseeing  the  financial  reporting 
process of the Group. 

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our responsibility is to conduct an audit of the financial report in accordance with Australian Auditing 
Standards and to issue an auditor’s report. However, because of the matter described in the Basis for 
Disclaimer  of  Opinion  section  of  our  report,  we  were  not  able  to  obtain  sufficient  appropriate  audit 
evidence  to  provide  a  basis  for  an  audit  opinion  on  the  financial  report.  We  are  independent  of  the 
Group  in  accordance  with  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. 

Report on the Remuneration Report  

Disclaimer of Opinion on the Remuneration Report 

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 5 to 7 of the directors’ report for the year 
ended 31 December 2017. 

Because  of  the  existence  of  the  limitation  on  the  scope  of  our  work,  as  described  in  the  Basis  of 
Disclaimer of Opinion, and the effects of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to 
be necessary had the limitation not existed, we are unable to, and do not express, an opinion on the 
remuneration report of Titan Minerals Limited for the  year  ended  31 December 2017 and  whether  it 
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.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT  

The directors of Titan Minerals support and adhere to the principles of corporate governance, recognising 
the need for the highest standard of corporate behaviour and accountability. Please refer to the corporate 
governance  statement  and  the  appendix  4G  released  to  ASX  and  posted  on  the  Company  website  at 
www.titanminerals.com.au. 

The directors are focused on fulfilling their responsibilities individually, and as a Board, for the benefit of all 
the Company’s stakeholders. That involves recognition of, and a need to adopt, principles of good corporate 
governance.  The  Board  supports  the  guidelines  on  the  “Principles  of  Good  Corporate  Governance  and 
Recommendations – 3rd Edition” established by the ASX Corporate Governance Council. 

Given  the  size  and  structure  of  the  Company,  the  nature  of  its  business  activities,  the  stage  of  its 
development and the cost of strict and detailed compliance with all of the recommendations, it has adopted 
a  range  of  modified  systems,  procedures  and  practices  which  enables  it  to  meet  the  principles  of  good 
corporate governance. 

The Company’s practices are mainly consistent with those of the guidelines and where they do not correlate 
with  the  recommendations  in  the  guidelines  the  Company  considers  that  its  adopted  practices  are 
appropriate to it.
