Review of Operations
INTRODUCTION
FYI Resources Limited (FYI or the Company) is an ASX listed resources company with a focus on the exploration and development of strategic commodity projects. The Company has a corporate objective to advance its fully integrated and innovative high quality, ultra-pure alumina (HPA) project and to become a dominant participant in various HPA growth markets with applications such as LED’s, sapphire glass, semiconductors as well as the rapidly emerging electric vehicle and static power storage.
High Purity Alumina
High purity alumina, defined as alumina having a grade equal or greater than 99.99% Al2O3, is sought after due to its unique qualities and characteristics and a number of diverse applications. HPA’s chemical and physical properties make the product ideal for both “traditional” and new technology applications. The more traditional HPA applications include sapphire glass used for electronic screens such as smartphones, computers, tablets and televisions etc, and substrates in LED’s which provide a base demand. However, its use as the major mineral component in separators required for batteries used in electric vehicles and static power storage units is emerging as the high growth area for the product.
CORPORATE
Alcoa Joint Venture MOU
FYI signed a MOU on 8 September 2020 with leading alumina producer, Alcoa of Australia Limited (Alcoa). The intention of the MOU is to explore joint development opportunities of FYI’s innovative and fully integrated HPA production and refining process for full scale commercialisation. The co-development of FYI’s HPA process flowsheet and refining technologies is consistent with FYI’s broader development objective of attracting globally significant and strategic bluechip partners in the production of high quality, HPA and to leverage growing global market opportunities. The MOU establishes a pathway to progress to an operational joint venture (JV) and is subject to the satisfaction of conditions precedent and successful negotiation of mutually beneficial terms.
On 5 May 2021, an exclusivity agreement between the two parties was signed to facilitate detailed negotiation of the terms of a possible HPA project joint venture. This agreement was extended post balance date to consider broader value-add and downstream opportunities.
Capital raising
In December 2020, Shares issued 7 December 2020 per note 10 raised $6 million through a placement to sophisticated and professional investors. FYI issued 30.0 million fully paid ordinary shares at $0.20 per share (Placement). The Placement received strong support from local and international investors as well as several existing major shareholders.
In August 2020 and October 2020, FYI successfully raised $2.7 million through a two-tranche placement to sophisticated and professional investors, pursuant to section 708 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) via the issue of 45.0 million fully paid ordinary shares at $0.06 per share.
Board exercises options
In November 2020, all FYI directors exercised FYI options (due to expire on 26 November 2020) to raise a total of $238,500, demonstrating the Board’s commitment to FYI’s HPA development project.
R&D Tax incentive
In October 2020, FYI received an R&D tax incentive rebate payment of $924,564 for the 2019/2020 financial year.
Entry into MSCI Index
FYI was selected for inclusion into the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) Global Micro-Cap Index from 27 May 2021. As part of the inclusion, FYI was added to the MSCI Australia Micro-Cap Index which is designed to measure the performance of the Micro-Cap segment of companies traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The benefits to FYI being admitted into the MSCI Global Index includes increased exposure to global institutions, gaining broader exposure to the investment markets, possibility of increased liquidity, increased access to potential capital sources, possibility for broader exposure and research coverage and transparency for institutional and retail investment
OTC Trading Platform
The OTC is a share trading platform which offers an electronic quotation and trading service in the US as a secondary platform to FYI’s primary listing on the ASX. FYI commenced OTC quotation of the Company’s securities (see ASX announcement 20 April 2021) under the code OTC: FYIRF. FYI’s OTC quotation was in direct response to a high level of inquiries from North American investors (funds, ESG funds, family offices and high net worth’s) aware of FYI’s outstanding DFS results and who were actively looking for alternative investment opportunities into the electric vehicle (EV) industries. Various ESG funds were also attracted by the excellent ESG rating scored by FYI (see ESG section below).

Future Battery Industry
FYI is a founding member and partner of the Australian Federal Government’s $135m Future Batteries Industries Cooperative Research Centre (FBI CRC) based out of Curtin University in Perth, Western Australia.
FYI continues participating in the project development and testing of HPA in Li-ion batteries for various cell formats to progress to commercialisation.
Major Project Status
On 29 June 2021, the Australian Federal Government approved Major Project Status (MPS) to FYI’s innovative high purity alumina project. The awarding of Major Project Status is the Australian Government's recognition of a project’s national significance and potential economic contribution to Australia.
The former Federal Minister for Industry, Innovation and Science, the Hon. Christian Porter MP, officially recognised FYI’s role in the growing battery and energy related minerals industry in Australia through the Company’s planned participation and investment in downstream critical minerals processing sector. “Not only will it improve global supplies of high-grade alumina, with forecast export revenue of $6.8 billion, but the project will also provide a raft of economic and job benefits for regional communities in Western Australia,” Minister Porter said.
Minister for Resources, Water and Northern Australia, the Hon. Keith Pitt MP, said the project complements the Government’s Critical Minerals Strategy. “In addition, it supports Australia’s policy to have more down-stream processing capabilities developed locally.”
The awarding of the MPS follows on from the awarding of Lead Agency to FYI by the Premier of Western Australia, the Hon Mr. Mark McGowan MP, and the WA Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation (see ASX announcement 23 September 2019).
PROJECT SUMMARY
FYI’s primary assets are the technology, intellectual property and expertise developed in processing HPA from nontraditional feedstock and the 100% owned Cadoux Kaolin Project located approximately 220kms northeast of Perth, Western Australia from which the feedstock can be sourced. The Company completed an updated definitive feasibility study (DFS) in March 2020.
Updated Definitive Feasibility Study
FYI announced an updated definitive feasibility study (Updated DFS) of the Company’s HPA project (see ASX announcement 8 April 2021). The DFS results demonstrate a potential project value of US$1.14b (A$1.3b) and reflects changes to a number of underlying assumptions based on technical improvements, project de-risking and other key commercial developments accomplished by FYI since the initial DFS announcement on 11 March 2020.
FYI’s process design for advanced refining of HPA utilises conventional leach and precipitation flowsheet and technologies which have been innovated and optimised by FYI to commercialise the production of high quality, high purity alumina. This results in excellent product characteristics for the targeted markets at lowest cost quartile for both opex and capex costs.
The updated Project NPV include detailed flowsheet advances, process design and production optimisation which were validated by extensive testwork (including multiple pilot plant trials) to optimise the integrated HPA process flowsheet and design.

FYI is now working toward making disclosures against the World Economic Forum (WEF) universal ESG framework. The Company demonstrates its disclosure progress by providing quarterly ESG updates and make our disclosures available in the public domain.
The universal ESG framework
The World Economic Forum has defined common metrics for sustainable value creation in a core set of 21 disclosures for organisations to align their mainstream reporting on performance against ESG indicators. The WEF metrics are based on existing standards, aiming to accelerate convergence and consistency in the reporting of ESG disclosures.
By including these ESG metrics in the mainstream reporting and integrating them into the Company’s governance, business strategy and performance management process, FYI demonstrates that it is considering all pertinent risks and opportunities in running the business.
Leading ESG disclosure technology
To track the disclosure progress and demonstrate the sustainability performance against the WEF ESG framework FYI utilises the ESG Go disclosure platform from Socialsuite. ESG Go enables the Company to demonstrate its ongoing commitment to ESG by providing a dedicated solution to track, report and share our ESG disclosures. With ESG Go FYI has started the journey of building robust ESG credentials.

Cautionary Statement
Substance of Updated DFS
The Updated DFS referred to in this announcement is a study of the potential viability of the production of high purity alumina from feedstock from the Cadoux Kaolin Project. It has been undertaken to understand the technical and economic viability of the Project.
The Updated DFS assumes as a 25-year Project life based only on Proved and Probable Ore Reserves (100%). The Updated DFS is based on the material assumptions set out in this announcement and its appended DFS summary. These include assumptions about the availability of funding. While the Company considers all of the material assumptions to be based on reasonable grounds, there is no certainty that they will prove to be correct or that the range of outcomes indicated by the feasibility studies will be achieved.
To achieve the range of outcomes indicated in Updated DFS, funding in the order of A$202 million will likely be required. Investors should note that there is no certainty that the Company will be able to raise the amount of funding when needed. It is also possible that such funding may only be available on terms that may be dilutive to or otherwise affect the value of the Company's existing shares.
It is also possible that the Company could pursue other "value realisation" strategies such as a sale, partial sale or joint venture of the Project. If it does, this could materially reduce the Company's proportionate ownership of the Project.

A. Principles of Remuneration
This Remuneration Report outlines the director and executive remuneration arrangements of the Company in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. For the purposes of this report Key Management Personnel of the Company are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company and includes the executives in the Company receiving the highest remunerations.
For the purposes of this report, the term Key Management Personnel encompasses the Directors and Managing Director of the company.
Details of Key Management Personnel for the year ended 30 June 2021

Name Position E Babington Chairman (Non-Executive) D Sargeant Director (Non-Executive) A Jessup Director (Non-Executive) R Hill Managing Director
Remuneration Philosophy
This section details the remuneration arrangements in place for the Key Management Personnel of FYI Resources Limited.
The broad remuneration philosophy is to ensure that remuneration properly reflects the relevant person's duties and responsibilities, and that the remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people of the highest quality. The Board believes that the best way to achieve this objective is to provide any Key Management Personnel with a remuneration package consisting of components that reflect the person’s responsibilities, duties, personal and corporate performance.
At this time, no part of an Key Management Personnel remuneration package is directly dependent on Company performance.
To this end, FYI Resources Limited follows the following principles:
-
Provide competitive rewards.
-
That a part of the senior executive’s remuneration may be “at risk” and is linked to pre-determined achievements.
-
That any variable part of executive remuneration has appropriate and demanding performance hurdles attached.
Remuneration Committee
FYI Resources Limited established a remuneration committee in May 2021. The remuneration of non-executive directors is determined having regard to industry standards of similar sized entities and the financial resources of the Company.
Each director receives a fee for being a director of the Company, with additional fees considered in recognition of specific duties carried out by each director. Fees paid to Non-Executive Directors are reviewed periodically.
The Company did not engage a remuneration consultant during the year for executive or non-executive remuneration.
Non-Executive Director Remuneration
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with an ability to attract and retain directors of suitable calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to the shareholders.
The constitution and the ASX listing rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of Non-Executive directors shall be determined from time to time by general meeting of shareholders.
12
Directors' Report
REMUNERATION REPORT (Cont.)
The aggregate amount payable to the Company’s Non-Executive Directors must not exceed the maximum annual amount approved by the Company’s shareholders. An aggregate amount of $300,000 was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held in November 2008.
The remuneration of non-executive directors for the periods ending 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020 is detailed in Section B.
Details of Remuneration
Senior Manager and Executive Director Remuneration
The Company aims to reward Key Management Personnel with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Company and so as to:
-
reward executives for Company, business unit and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks;
-
align the interests of executives with those of shareholders;
-
link rewards with the strategic goals and performance of the Company; and
-
ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
Remuneration packaging contains the following key elements:
-
Fixed remuneration - fixed components of salaries, fee and non-monetary benefits.
-
Variable remuneration - share options.
-
Post-employment benefits - superannuation.
The Chairman, subject to Board approval, generally sets remuneration of any executive directors and the Managing Director.
Fixed Remuneration
The level of fixed remuneration for executives is set so as to provide a base level of remuneration which is both appropriate to the position and competitive in the market. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually.
Variable Remuneration
Short term incentives (STI) may be linked to achievement of the Company’s operational targets if the relevant Key Management Personnel achieve the target. STI is not linked to the Company’s prevailing share price or results as the Company is not at a profitable stage of operations.
The Directors, subject to shareholder approval, and executives are eligible to participate in the Company’s share option plan whereby options may be granted at an exercise price above the prevailing share price. This premium in conversion price, coupled with an appropriate vesting period, provides a long-term incentive (LTI) whereby Key Management Personnel will benefit only if there is a substantial improvement in the Company’s share price. The number of options granted to each Key Management Personnel is determined by the Board based on the Company’s and the eligible participant’s performance. The grant of options is not linked to the Company’s financial results, as the Company is not at a profitable stage of operations.
The Company does not have a policy for Directors to hedge their equity positions.
Employment contracts
In January 2019, the Company entered into a consultancy services agreement with Capstone Capital Pty Limited (a Company associated with Mr Roland Hill) (Capstone) for the term of 36 months, for the provision of services by Mr Hill, acting in the capacity of FYI’s Managing Director, overseeing the day to day administration and management of the business. The monthly fee payable to Capstone has been increased to $30,000 (plus GST in arrears) in line with market rates as from 1 March 2021, the amount was previously $16,500 plus GST in arrears. The Company or Capstone can terminate this agreement without cause with 3 months written notice.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
CORPORATE INFORMATION
The financial report of FYI Resources Limited (“the Company” or “Group”) for the year ended 30 June 2021 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 24 September 2021. FYI Resources Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Company during the financial year are mineral exploration and evaluation of potash projects in south east Asia and a kaolin to HPA project in Western Australia.
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of Preparation
This financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Interpretations). The Group’s accounting policies have been consistently applied with prior years, unless otherwise stated.
The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
For the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.
The financial statements are for the Group consisting of FYI Resources Limited and its subsidiaries.
b) Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards
In the year ended 30 June 2021, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company’s operations and effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2020. As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations of the Group, and therefore, no material change is necessary to Group accounting policies. This included consideration of AASB 16. The Company has no leases over 12 months.
The Directors have also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the year ended 30 June 2021. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Company and therefore, no change necessary to Company accounting policies.
c) Statement of compliance
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
d) Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions
The application of accounting policies requires the use of 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 other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Share-based payment transactions
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuer using a Black and Scholes model, using the assumptions detailed in note 15.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
The application of the Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgement in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits are likely from future exploitation or sale or where activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or reserves.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED
e) 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:
o has power over the investee;
o is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement in with the investee; and o has the ability to its power to affect its 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 listed above.
When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights in an investee, it has the power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Company’s voting rights are sufficient to give it power, including:
- the size of the Company’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;
o potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other parties; rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
- any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Company has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholder meetings.
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 comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in existing subsidiaries
Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount paid by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company.
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:
o the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest; and
- the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any noncontrolling 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 the applicable AASBs). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under AASB 9, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture.
f) Foreign Currency Translation
Both the functional and presentation currency of FYI Resources Limited and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance date.
All exchange differences in the consolidated financial report are taken to profit or loss with the exception of differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken directly to equity until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognised in profit or loss.
23
Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED
Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those borrowings are also recognised in equity. Nonmonetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss.
The functional currency of the foreign operation, West Mekong Minerals Limited, is Thai Baht (BHT).
As at the balance date the assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into the presentation currency of FYI Resources Limited at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance date and income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuated significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used.
The exchange differences arising on the translation are taken directly to a separate component of equity, being recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve.
On disposal of a foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the owners of the Company are reclassified to profit or loss.
In addition, in relation to the partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation that does not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling interests and are not recognised in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals (i.e. partial disposals of associates or jointly arrangements that do not result in the Group losing significant influence or joint control), the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences is reclassified to profit or loss.
g) Income Tax
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary difference and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company’s subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the current period’s taxable income. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:
-
when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
-
when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interest in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
24
Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
-
when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
-
when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Tax consolidation legislation
FYI Resources Limited and its 100% owned Australian resident subsidiaries have implemented the tax consolidation legislation. Current and deferred tax amounts are accounted for in each individual entity as if each entity continued to act as a taxpayer on its own.
FYI Resources Limited recognised its own current and deferred tax amounts and those current tax liabilities, current tax assets and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax credits and unused tax losses which it has assumed from its controlled entities within the tax consolidated Group.
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts payable or receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group. Any difference between the amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) controlled entities in the tax consolidated Group.
h) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
-
where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
-
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority, are classified as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
25
Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED
i) Revenue
Revenue is recognised to the extent that control has passed and it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.
Grant income is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive the payment is established.
j) Plant and Equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:
| Estimated useful life | |
|---|---|
| Plant and equipment | 4 – 5 years |
Impairment
The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs.
If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amounts, the assets or cashgenerating units are written down to their recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the greater of fair value less costs to sell 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.
k) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Exploration and evaluation costs, excluding the costs of acquiring licences, are expensed as incurred. Acquisition costs will be assessed on a case by case basis and, if appropriate, they will be capitalised. These acquisition costs are only carried forward only if the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current and either:
-
they are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or alternatively, by its sale; or
-
the activities in the area of interest at the reporting date have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing
Accumulated acquisition 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.
The carrying values of acquisition costs are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
l) Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment losses.
The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other receivables as well as contract assets and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. In calculating, the Group uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking information to calculate the expected credit losses using a provision matrix.
The Group assess impairment of trade receivables on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics they have been grouped based on the days past due.
26
Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED
m) Share-based Payments
Share-based compensation benefits are provided to directors and executives. The fair value of options granted to directors and executives is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the directors and/or executives become unconditionally entitled to the options.
Share-based payments provided to parties other than employees are measured at the fair value of the services or goods received, unless the fair value cannot be measured reliably. If the Company cannot reliably estimate the services or goods received, the Company shall measure their value, and the corresponding increase in equity, indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.
The fair value at grant date is determined using an option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the non-tradeable nature of the option, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected divided yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.
n) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
o) Loss per Share
Basic loss per share is calculated as net result attributable to the Company, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity (other than dividends), divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted loss per share is calculated as net result attributable to members, adjusted for:
-
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);
-
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
-
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of
-
opotential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
p) Trade and Other Payables
Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Company becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months.
q) Impairment of Assets
At each balance date, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Company makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
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 group of assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
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. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
27
Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED
An assessment is also made at each balance date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss.
r) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.
Provisions are measured at the present value or management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
s) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors of FYI Resources Limited.
t) Issued Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
u) Going concern
The interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlements of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

On 26 September 2017, FYI Resources Limited agreed to progress with the purchase of 100% of the shares in Kokardine Kaolin Pty Limited, including its granted exploration tenements, rights, title and interests of the entity.
The consideration for the purchase is the issue of three tranches of shares:
-
Tranche 1 is the issue of 21,428,571 shares, which occurred on 29 November 2017;
-
Tranche 2 is the issue of 12,500,000 shares, which occurred on 20 February 2018; and
-
Tranche 3 is the issue of 10,000,000 shares, which occurred on 12 February 2019.
The fair value of share consideration is $0.081 per share valued using the spot price of the Company, when the Company had rights to the asset.
The recoupment of costs carried forward in relation to areas of interest in the exploration and evaluation phases is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation or sale of the respective areas.

The Company finances the operations of FYI Thailand Pty Limited and thus this company has unsecured borrowings from the Company that are interest free and at call. The ability of this controlled entity to repay debts due to the company (and other parties) will be dependent on the commercialisation of the prospecting licences owned by the subsidiary. FYI Thailand Pty Limited possesses 82.8% of the voting rights for West Mekong Minerals Limited.
The loss for the year to which the NCI relates amounted to $48,876 (2020: $47,408). The net liabilities of the subsidiary to which the NCI relates was $373,741 (20120: $373,603). The NCI at balance date was adjusted for the amount owing to the Group from the NCI party for their investment in that entity.
Balances and transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries, which are related parties of the Company, have been eliminated on consolidation and not disclosed in this note.
The parent’s investment in West Mekong Minerals Limited is not material, therefore, no disclosure of the subsidiary’s assets and liabilities has been made.

19. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Overview
The Company has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:
-
Credit risk
-
Liquidity risk
-
Market risk
This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. Management monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Company through regular reviews of the risks.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers and investment securities.
Investments
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing with counterparties that have an acceptable credit rating. Cash and cash equivalents are held with BankWest which is an Australian bank with an AA- credit rating (Standard & Poor’s).
Trade and other receivables
The Company has a small exposure to trade receivables at 30 June 2020.
The Company establishes an allowance for impairment that represents their estimate of expected losses in respect of other receivables and investments where necessary. The components of this allowance may include a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures.
Exposure to credit risk
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:

| Cash & cash equivalents Trade and other receivables |
9,065,895 107,893 1,712,306 1,126,382 |
Impairment losses
An impairment loss of $Nil (2020: $Nil) has been recognised in respect of other receivables.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows.
Typically, the Company ensures it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses for a period of 90 days.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.
Currency risk
As a result of a controlled entity in Thailand and purchases in Thai Baht, the Group’s statement of financial position can be affected by movements in the Thai Baht / AUD exchange rates. The Group does not have a policy to enter into forward foreign exchange contracts.
The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the balance date expressed in Australian dollars are as follows:
| Thai Baht | Consolidated | |
|---|---|---|
| Assets 2021 2020 2021 $ $ $ Liabilities |
2020 $ |
|
| (377,754) (377,923) 4,013 |
||
4,320 |
At 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020, had the Australian dollar moved up or down by 10%, with all other variables held constant, post tax result and equity would not have been materially affected.
Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk due to variable interest being earned on its assets held in cash and cash equivalents. Refer note 8. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk at balance date is not material.
Profile
At the reporting date the interest rate profile of the Company’s interest bearing financial instruments was:
| Consolidated | |

19. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT CONTINUED
Interest Rate Risk
Where possible the Company enters into fixed interest rate deposits to reduce its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk, which 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 rates on these financial instruments, are as follows:

Fair values versus carrying amounts
The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are as per the carrying amounts shown in the statement of financial position.
Other market price risk
Other Equity price risk is the risk that the value of the instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether caused by factors specific to an individual investment, its issuer or all factors affecting all instruments traded in the market.
Capital management
The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business.
44
Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year ended 30 June 2021
19. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT CONTINUED
The Board seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position. The Company defines return on capital as net operating income divided by total shareholders’ equity.
There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
20. LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net result for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company (after deducting interest on the convertible redeemable preference shares) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net result attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company (after deducting interest on the convertible redeemable preference shares) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
The following reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted loss per share computations:
| Consolidated | |
|---|---|
| 30/06/2021 30/06/2020 Cents Cents |
|
| Basic loss per share Loss used in the calculation of basic EPS |
(1.20) (0.98) (3,414,905) (2,078,042) |
| Weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period used in calculations of basic loss per share |
284,162,381 212,772,654 |
Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share as a loss was generated.
21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company raised $2,799,660 subsequent to year end via the exercise of the following options:
-
On 5 July 2021, 750,000 unlisted options expiring 31 July 2021 were exercised at 10 cents each raising $75,000;

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the members of FYI Resources Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of FYI Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, 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.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2021 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
-
b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company and the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021 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 Company and 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 Company or the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
48
==> picture [165 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
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 Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s or 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 Company or the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
