4. CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Investor,

On behalf of the Board, I am delighted to invite you to participate in the ownership and future growth of Celsius Coal Limited (to be renamed “Favourit Limited”).

The Company previously operated as a coal and nickel explorer, and since April 2015, had been evaluating alternative corporate opportunities, both in Australia and overseas. As announced on 26 October 2015, the Company is proposing to change its operations to a company focused on operating in the global online gambling industry via the acquisition of 100% of the issued capital of Favourit Global Pty Ltd (Favourit). On 28 January 2016, shareholders approved (amongst other things) this change in the Company’s direction.

Favourit has developed and owns a socially designed betting platform that operates in the global online gambling market estimated by the Global Betting and Gaming Consultancy (GBGC) to be US$450 billion in 2014, measured in annual gross gambling revenue[1] . The technology platform, founded within TOTE Tasmania Pty Ltd in 2012 by brothers Toby and Josh Simmons, is an internationally scalable, multi-channel and differentiated platform that intends to broadly disrupt the global online gambling market. Funds raised to date have enabled the design, development and early stage commercialisation of Favourit’s own sportsbook business. Favourit (via its subsidiary, Favourit Enterprises) recently partnered with a leading European based service provider (EveryMatrix) to provide the necessary and more commoditised back office functionality, allowing Favourit to operate as a licenced sportsbook under its own brand in certain international markets.

Favourit is focused on re-engineering the online sports betting experience for today’s digital age. The current sportsbook competitive landscape is largely focused on the betting transaction between the customer and the bookmaker, with little to no integration of social features or data. The socially designed disruption opportunity is real and substantial, particularly in the growing market of sports betting customers around the world who have high familiarity with the social media channels they use frequently each and every day. Favourit launched its unique multi-channel platform in the UK market in late 2015, offering real money sports and racing betting via its socially focused user experience.

Favourit’s early operating performance is beginning to demonstrate that its marketing strategy and unique value proposition assist in lowering its customer acquisition cost. Should this continue to be demonstrated at scale, it should ensure that Favourit is a highly valuable business in this rapidly developing global industry. Favourit also aims to demonstrate over time that the socially designed user experience leads to higher engagement, greater activity and therefore enhanced financial returns.

The global online gambling market is a prime market for disruption. This market has evolved from the early days of “high street” betting shops that had a narrow customer appeal, to telephone call centres, through to transactional online platforms, and now to socially designed online betting platforms such as Favourit, the addressable market is substantial in size and is of course global. Favourit has chosen the UK as its initial market entry focus.

Based on Favourit’s observations, most market incumbents are largely reliant on technologies that deliver transactional based functions which restricts them to primarily

1 Global Betting and Gaming Consultants’ Global Gambling Report tenth edition (http://www.gbgc.com/globalgambling-revenues-pass-us-450-billion-in-2014/)

6

compete on price and promotions, the size of their marketing budget and, in some cases, use celebrity endorsers. Favourit competes and differentiates on the basis of its socially designed user experience, savvy digital, affiliate and social marketing, and its clear focus on the larger market segment (by volume) of online betting customers. Over time, this is intended to ensure that the platform has a broader appeal to those users who value the entertainment aspect of the betting experience, rather than just the betting transaction itself.

Socially designed features leveraging “big data” such as trending, hot and recommended bets based on betting activity, gamification elements including competitive leaderboard rankings, one-click to follow bet placement, and relevant content feeds all add to the platform differentiation of Favourit.

This Prospectus is being issued to assist the Company to re-comply with the ASX Listing Rules and also raise sufficient funds to complete the proposed Transaction. Under this Prospectus, the Company proposes to raise a minimum of $4,000,000 and a maximum of $6,000,000 pursuant to the Public Offer.

I encourage you to read the Prospectus carefully and in its entirety, particularly the section on risks.

On behalf of the Board, I invite you to subscribe for Shares in the Company and look forward to welcoming you as a shareholder.

Yours sincerely,

BILL OLIVER CHAIRMAN

9 March 2016

Item Summary Further information Business Model of Favourit post-Acquisition

Who is Favourit is an Australian incorporated company that Sections 7 Favourit? develops and owns a socially designed betting platform and 8 that operates primarily in the UK online betting market (Favourit Platform). The Favourit Platform was initially incubated by TOTE Tasmania, then acquired from the Tatts Group (Tatts) by the current Favourit management in early 2012 (following the Tatts acquisition of TOTE Tasmania in late 2011). The Favourit Platform, while under development and beta testing, initially operated by offering a virtual currency (i.e. non real-money gaming) and affiliate model (real-money gaming through affiliated licensed bookmakers) until November 2014 when the Favourit Platform was launched into the UK market as a Favourit branded bookmaker. The Favourit Platform provides a socially designed user experience for betting on sports, racing, and casino games. Favourit (via its subsidiary, Favourit Enterprises) has partnered with EveryMatrix, a UK and Romanian based technology provider of white-label bookmaking administrative and risk management services. EveryMatrix provides Favourit with the back-office bookmaking function, including odds pricing, risk management, gambling licence access, and regulatory compliance. Favourit operates as a whitelabel partner of EveryMatrix. EveryMatrix has licences to operate in the UK, Malta, Curacao, and Ireland. As a whitelabel partner, Favourit (via its subsidiary, Favourit Enterprises) does not hold any gambling licence itself. Rather, bookmaking services are conducted by EveryMatrix under its licences, and Favourit promotes these services to customers using the Favourit brand.

The Favourit Platform is multi-channelled and available across desktop browser and mobile (HTML5) devices. It differentiates itself from other betting platforms through its features leveraging “big data” such as trending, hot and recommended bets based on betting activity, gamification elements including competitive leaderboard rankings and one-click to follow bet placement.

Favourit is actively developing and investigating new market opportunities through continual international business development in regulated markets.

C.
Key Risks
What are the
key risks of an
investment in
the
Company?
The business, assets and operations of the Company are
and will be subject to certain risk factors. These factors
can impact on the value of an investment in the
Securities of the Company.
Set out below are specific risks the Company is and will
be exposed to post-Acquisition. An investment in the
Company should be considered highly speculative.
Further risk factors affecting Favourit and the Merged
Group are set out in Section 9.
Section 9
Risks
associated
with UKGC
Licence and
with UK
Whitelabel
Agreement
with
EveryMatrix
Given that a significant majority of the Merged Group’s
customers are UK residents, the most material risks are in
respect of the UKGC Licence and the UK Whitelabel
Agreement with EveryMatrix.
A risk exists that the UKGC Licence may be suspended,
terminated or cancelled.
A risk exists that EveryMatrix may terminate the UK
Whitelabel Agreement. If this occurs, Favourit will no
longer be able to market gambling services to residents
of the UK, unless it finds a white label partner to replace
EveryMatrix or applies for its own UKGC licence.

Section
9.3(a)
Computer
system risk
A prolonged failure of the computer systems and/or
related
infrastructure
operated
by
Favourit
and
EveryMatrix may result in a loss of revenue and profit to
Favourit and in such circumstances may have an
adverse effect on the operational and financial
performance of Favourit.
Section
9.3(b)

12

Item Summary Further
information
Future Funding
Requirements
At present, Favourit has a cash requirement of
approximately A$230,000 to A$250,000 per month. Costs
may rise in the future as a result of expansion strategies
and opportunities which may cause greater or further
operational losses to Favourit ahead of revenue growth
projections. This may require Favourit to seek funding to
implement these strategies and opportunities going
forward.
Section
9.3(c)
Limited
operating
history
Favourit was incorporated on 11 May 2012 and therefore
has limited operating history. Given the limited operating
history of Favourit, no assurance can be given that
Favourit will achieve commercial viability through the
implementation of its business plan.
Section
9.3(d)
Potential
Liability
Dispute
On or about 9 October 2015, Favourit received
notification of a potential claim by a third party affiliate
marketing partner (Potential Claimant), for additional
commission allegedly owing to the Potential Claimant.
Whilst the matter has not resulted in a formal claim as at
the date of this Prospectus, Favourit estimates the
amount disputed to be approximately EUR74,764 (being
approximately A$110,692 as at the date of this
Prospectus).
Favourit is confident that this will not result in any further
commissions payable or costs being incurred by Favourit
from the Potential Claimant. Favourit has received no
further correspondence on the matter since the original
notification and response by Favourit denying the
alleged liability.
Section
9.3(e)
Competition
and new
technologies
The industry in which Favourit is involved in is subject to
increasing domestic and global competition which is
fast-paced and fast-changing. While the Company will
undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business
decisions and operations, the Company will have no
influence or control over the activities or actions of its
competitors, whose activities or actions may positively or
negatively
affect
the
operating
and
financial
performance of the Company’s projects and business.
Section 9.3(f)
Key supplier
and software
risk
Favourit is contracted with UK and Romanian based
technology and whitelabel licensing provider EveryMatrix
to provide Favourit’s core transactional software and for
its real money sportsbook and casino operations.
EveryMatrix may be purchased by another market
competitor, or be subject to legal action which renders
its performance as a service supplier limited.
Furthermore, Favourit is reliant on the availability and
quality of EveryMatrix’s software. Any software error or
malfunction will affect Favourit’s ability to service its
Section 9.3(f)

13

Item Summary Further
information
customers.
Attracting and
retaining
customers on
the Platform
The Company’s revenue will be affected by its ability to
attract and retain customers on the Favourit Platform.
Various factors can affect the level and activity of
customers
using
the
Favourit
Platform,
including:
marketing and promotions; brand damage; interruptions
to service provision; and regulatory access to customer
markets.
Section
9.3(g)
Regulatory
Risks
The activities of Favourit are conducted in a highly
regulated, yet fragmented industry.
Changes in legislation, regulation or government policy
may have an adverse impact on Favourit’s operational

A risk exists that, in future, EveryMatrix may be required to
pay to racing and/or sporting bodies fees in respect of its
use of the information relating to the races/sports held by

Disposal of
View Nickel
Subject to completion of the Transaction, the Company
is seeking to dispose of its nickel interests at Carnilya Hill in
Western Australia, which it holds via a joint venture
between its subsidiary, View Nickel Pty Ltd (View Nickel)
and Mincor Resources NL (Mincor) (30:70) (Joint Venture).
Final rehabilitation costs associated with the Carnilya Hill
mine are estimated to be A$570,000, to be shared
between View Nickel and Mincor pro-rata to their Joint
Venture interests. The timing of any rehabilitation works is
at the election of the Joint Venture.
Depending on the outcome of negotiations with a
prospective third party purchaser (and the agreement of
Mincor), there is a risk that any future disposal of View
Nickel may require the Company to contribute (in whole
or in part) to the costs of rehabilitation under the original
Joint Venture.
Section
9.4(a)
Liquidity Risk The Securities (or a proportion of these Securities) to be

Securities) to be issued under the Celsius Noteholder’s
Offer and the Adviser Offer may also be subject to

TOTAL $592,335 $714,335
  1. Funds used for development and operational support of Favourit include:

  3. (b) management and expansion of customer service activities;

  4. (c) provision of hardware and third party services to continue to offer the Favourit Platform and real money betting product

In the event the Company raises more than the minimum subscription of $4,000,000, but less than the maximum subscription of $6,000,000, the additional funds raised will be first applied towards the additional costs of the Offers (primarily capital raising fees) and thereafter to increased marketing and business development of the Favourit Platform and for general working capital. On completion of the Offer, the Board believes the Company will have sufficient working capital to achieve these objectives. However, the Merged Group may be required to obtain further financing in the future depending on the Company’s ability to generate income from its operations.

The above table is a statement of current intentions as of the date of lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC. As with any budget, intervening events and new circumstances have the potential to affect the ultimate way funds will be applied. The Board reserves the right to alter the way funds are applied on this basis.

23

Actual expenditure may differ significantly from the above estimates due to a change in market conditions, the development of new opportunities and other factors (including the risk factors outlined in Section 9).

6.5

Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of Securities will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor.

It is not possible to provide a comprehensive summary of the possible taxation positions of all potential applicants. As such, all potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Securities from a taxation viewpoint and generally.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for Securities under this Prospectus.

6.7 Issue of Securities and Allocation Policy

6.7.1

General

Subject to the Minimum Subscription being achieved and the satisfaction of each of the conditions to the Offers (see Section 6.2), the issue of Securities

24

offered by this Prospectus will take place as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.

6.7.2 Public Offer

The allocation of Shares under the Public Offer will be determined by the Board in consultation with APCF as Lead Manager to the Public Offer and the Proposed Directors, and otherwise in its absolute discretion.

There is no guaranteed allocation of Shares under the Public Offer.

The Board, in consultation with APCF as Lead Manager to the Public Offer and the Proposed Directors, reserve the right to reject any Application or to allocate any Applicant fewer Shares than the number applied for. Where the number of Shares issued is less than the number applied for, or where no issue is made, surplus Application monies will be refunded (without interest) to the Applicant as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.

The Company’s decision on the number of Shares to be allocated to an Applicant will be final.

6.7.3 Favourit Offer

The Favourit Offer is a specific offer made to the Vendors. As such, Shares offered under the Favourit Offer will be allocated and issued to those Vendors only.

6.7.4 Adviser Offer

The Adviser Offer is a specific offer made to APCF. As such, Shares offered under the Adviser Offer will be allocated and issued to APCF (or its nominees) only.

6.7.5 Celsius Noteholders Offer

The Celsius Noteholders Offer is a specific offer made to Celsius Noteholders. As such, Securities offered under the Celsius Noteholders Offer will be allocated and issued to those Celsius Noteholders only.

6.7.6 Defects in Applications

If an Application Form is not completed correctly or if the accompanying payment is the wrong amount, the Company may, in its discretion, still treat the Application Form to be valid. The Company’s decision to treat an Application as valid, or how to construe, amend or complete it, will be final.

6.7.7 Interest

Pending the issue of the Shares or payment of refunds pursuant to the Public Offer, all application monies will be held by the Company in trust for Applicants in a separate bank account as required by the Corporations Act. The Company, however, will be entitled to retain all interest that accrues on the bank account and each Applicant waives the right to claim interest.

6.8 Quotation of Shares

The Company will apply for Official Quotation of all Shares issued under this Prospectus within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus. However, Applicants should be aware that the ASX will not commence Official Quotation of any

25

Shares until the Company has received the approval of the ASX to be readmitted to the Official List. As such, the Shares may not be able to be traded for some time after the close of the Offers.

If the Shares are not admitted to Official Quotation by the ASX before the expiration of 3 months after the date of this Prospectus, or such period as varied by the ASIC, or if the ASX otherwise rejects the Company’s application for readmission to the Official List, the Company will not issue any Securities and will repay all Application monies for the Shares within the time prescribed under the Corporations Act, without interest. In those circumstances, the Favourit Offer, the Adviser Offer and the Celsius Noteholders Offer will be withdrawn and the Company will not proceed with the Transaction.

The fact that the ASX may grant Official Quotation to the Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Securities now offered for subscription.

6.9 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company participates in the Clearing House Electronic Sub-register System (CHESS). ASX Settlement Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of the ASX, operates CHESS. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company.

Electronic sub-registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with holding statements (similar to a bank account statement) that set out the number of Securities issued to them under this Prospectus. The holding statements will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number (if the holder is broker sponsored) or Security Holder Reference Number (if the holder is issuer sponsored) and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Electronic sub-registers also mean ownership of Securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation. Further, monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month. Security holders may request a holding statement at any other time, however a charge may be made for such additional statements.

6.10

Applicants outside Australia

This Prospectus does not, and is not intended to, constitute an offer of, or invitation to apply for, Securities in any place or jurisdiction, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or invitation.

Applicants who are resident in countries other than Australia should consult their professional advisers as to whether any governmental or other consents are required or whether any other formalities need to be considered and followed in order to accept any of the Offers.

26

If you are outside Australia, it is your responsibility to ensure compliance with all laws of any country relevant to, and obtain all necessary approvals for, the issue of the Securities pursuant to this Prospectus. The return of a completed Application Form will be taken by the Company to constitute a representation and warranty by you that there has been no breach of any such laws and all relevant approvals have been obtained.

Furthermore, no person ordinarily resident in the US is or will become permitted to submit an Application Form. If the Company believes that any Applicant is ordinarily resident in the US, or is acting on behalf of a person or entity that is ordinarily a resident of the US, the Company will reject that applicant’s application.

Singapore

This Prospectus or any other offering material relating to the Shares has not been and will not be registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Accordingly, this Prospectus and any other document or material in connection with the offer or sale, or invitation for subscription or purchase, of Shares may not be issued, circulated or distributed, nor may the Shares be offered or sold, or be made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, whether directly or indirectly, to persons in Singapore other than to an institutional investor, as defined in section 4(A)(1) of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the “SFA”), in accordance with and pursuant to section 274 of the SFA, or otherwise pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provisions of the SFA.

Any offer is not made to you with a view to the Shares being subsequently offered for sale to any other party. Investors should note there are certain onsale restrictions (set out in, among others, sections 257 and 276 of the SFA) applicable to all investors who acquire the Shares pursuant to the exemptions in section 274 of the SFA.

Remote gambling participation (ie. online) has increased by approximately 50% from 9.7% in December 2008 to 15.4% in December 2014 [5] . Based on data from 2014, the UK was ranked as the 5[th] largest gambling market based on client losses[6] . Betting accounts for 45% of remote betting and gaming gross gambling yields within the UK market[7.]

In 2013, Europe (excluding the United Kingdom) accounted for approximately 27.1% of global gambling yield [8] . Favourit believes the expansion of online gambling regulation in this European sector has created potential market opportunities for Favourit.

7.1.2 Key Trends

Key trends influenci n g the growth of complexion of global gambling relevant to Favourit’s business i n clude:

(a) Technolog y 9

Technolog y , and specifically pervasive penetration of the internet, is transformin g many areas of world gambling. Two key improvements are helping to e nhance the internet gambling games an d services that can be offered:

  • (i) co n tinued expansion (and lowering cost s ) of high-speed br o adband; and

  • (ii) the proliferation of, and improvement in, t ablets and smart ph o nes.[10]

Internet access and mobile phone penetration ra t es are becoming increasingl y important factors in determining industry demand as online gambling b ecomes more revenant and gains re g ulatory approval. Favourit believes that in developed economies where internet access and smartphone ownership are high, online gamblin g can be seamless and can l e ad to increased spending on gambling . Favourit believes that this is t rue of countries such as Australia and the United Kingdom (online ga m bling is illegal throughout much of t h e United States). However, i n developing countries, Favourit beli e ves that online gambling h as yet to achieve its potential due to weak internet infrastructure and relatively low smartphone penetration rates. As a result, onlin e gambling is likely contributing to an i n creasing share of

total gambling spend.[11]

Internet gambling continues to make an ever-growing contribution to global gambling revenues and GGY reached US$40 billion in 2013.[ 12] It is likely that gambling by smart phones and tablets is also acting as a spur for growth. In 2006, global GGY from mobile devices was just US$1 billion and accounted for less than 5% of interactive gambling revenues.[ 13] In 2012, mobile devices contributed approximately 18% of total interactive gambling revenues.[13]

In the UK, where Favourit’s business is currently focused, it is estimated that online sports betting already has a third of the UK betting revenues.[14]

(b) Growth of sports betting

Sports betting has been a major growth area for the industry over the past five years. Although sports betting is illegal in many countries, increased coverage of sporting events, refined marketing and sponsorship rights deals by betting agencies and the ability of consumers to place bets online have all combined to push up sports betting. There is potential for a larger number of countries and states to legalise sports betting in the coming years[15] .

Between 2009 and 2013, the growth of UK sports betting participation (reflected in gross gambling yields) was estimated to be 79.5%.[16 ] Furthermore, it appears that betting and gaming in the UK has become a culturally more accepted leisure activity and consumers who traditionally might not have gone to a betting shop or bingo hall can now bet and play in a way that fits their lifestyle and preferences.[17 ]

the proposed Acquisition of Favourit by the Company. A summary of the key terms of the Acquisition is set out in Section 14.1.

The Company is currently looking to divest its existing mining interests and focus solely on Favourit’s business going forward.

7.2.2 Favourit Global Pty Ltd

Favourit is an Australian incorporated technology, marketing, and wagering operations company. Favourit has been operating in the global wagering industry since 2012. The Favourit Platform was originally conceived and developed by TOTE Tasmania Pty Ltd (a company that was subsequently privatised by the Tasmanian Government and sold to Tatts Group Limited in 2012).

Favourit subsequently purchased the Favourit Platform and intellectual property associated with it from Tatts Group Limited in order to continue its development and commercialisation, both domestically and internationally.

Further information on Favourit can be found on Favourit’s website, www.favouritlimited.com.au.

7.2.3 Company Vision and Opportunity

The Favourit Platform has been designed to be an engaging, socially optimised betting experience that intends to provide its users with a more entertaining and content driven experience. Favourit’s objective is to build the next generation of online sportsbooks, and achieve superior returns compared to traditional “transactional” sportsbook businesses. While the global gambling industry remains highly competitive, Favourit’s directors believe it is expansive in nature, and market incumbents do not yet fully leverage personalisation, contextual data and customer interactions within their offerings. Favourit’s directors believe that the Favourit Platform offers a unqiue point of difference for its customers.

7.2.4 Key Strengths

Competitive position

The Favourit Platform is differentiated by delivering a socially designed user experience, whose value proposition is to add more insight and entertainment to its customers than traditional betting transactional focused experiences delivered by Favourit’s key competitors. Favourit utilises operational data to better communicate, target and engage with customers including offering contextually relevant promotions, content and betting opportunities.

Since the establishment of its UK business in November 2014, Favourit’s operating metrics are beginning to demonstrate a low cost of user acquisition via its digital, affiliate and social marketing activities.[19]

7.3

Favourit Business Operations

Favourit’s real money sports betting operations are primarily conducted in the United Kingdom (via its subsidiary, Favourit Enterprises), but also extends to the integration of non-real money virtual currency wallet activities in other markets.

Section 7.7 provides an overview of the Favourit Platform, key features and images that illustrate these features.

(a) United Kingdom – Real Money Sportsbook

Favourit (via its subsidiary, Favourit Enterprises) operates a socially designed, Favourit-branded licensed betting solution, primarily focused in the UK online gambling market. This sportsbook operation is deployed in partnership with the EveryMatrix back-office trading and administration system. The Favourit Platform has historically integrated more than one back-office service provider, and therefore is designed to allow further potential integration of alternative solution providers to access new markets or to extend the betting offering.

18 This data is based on Favourit’s internal administrative reporting systems. Please note that historical performance is not a guarantee of future performance and Favourit does not give any guarantee that it will be able to continue to perform in this way in the future.

35

A customer arrives at Favourit’s web or mobile application which they can localise into one of four languages (English, Spanish, Chinese and Swedish). Assuming the customer accesses the Favourit application from a UK based IP address, the customer can create an account by completing their registration details and then subsequently depositing cash into their betting account. From this point, the customer can then choose to bet on a wide array of sports, racing, or casino products.

Favourit’s real money sportsbook marketing strategies include:

  • using social networks to acquire customers onto the Favourit platform and leveraging “big data” insights to offer contextual betting opportunities to customers driving the use of the Favourit Platform;

  • designing a personalised and contextual user experience which adapts with the customer, increasing engagement and interaction between the customer and platform; and

  • offering incentives for customers to deposit money into the Favourit Platform and commence betting. These incentives include more traditional deposit bonus offers, enhanced odds promotions, and a proprietary rewards program. The rewards program is similar to airline frequent flyer programs and rewards users for their continued betting activity and increases in value based on various tiers within the rewards program.

(b) International – Virtual Currency

The Favourit Platform offers an automated virtual currency wallet that allows customers to sign up and place bets without having to deposit cash. This allows Favourit to continue developing its customer databases and market strategies in emerging markets where real money sports book operations are currently restricted.

A customer arrives at Favourit’s web or mobile application which they can localise into one of four languages (English, Spanish, Chinese and Swedish). Assuming the customer accesses the Favourit application from a non-regulated IP address, the customer can create an account by completing their registration details and then subsequently bet using a free virtual currency on a wide array of sports betting product.

The virtual currency wallets also acts as a potential retention tool for real-money customers who typically leave a betting platform once their funds are depleted whereas they can continue to bet for the entertainment experience with Favourit.

The platform supports a scalable internationalisation strategy including existing language translation for English, Spanish, Chinese and Swedish.

7.4 How Favourit Makes Money

The majority of Favourit’s revenue is expected to be generated by margins earned on real money betting that takes place through the Favourit Platform. Favourit’s experience in its first year operating in the United Kingdom in the 2015 calendar year illustrates that the financial dynamics of its business is typical of the online gambling industry and is largely consistent with the assumptions in its

36

business plan. The following table illustrates Favourit’s major revenue and expense lines.

Betting Turnover The collective dollar value of bets placed by all
customers through the Favourit Platform.
_Less_Net Customer Return Collective net dollar value returned to customers
for their winning bets.
= Gross Gaming Revenue The amount won by the sportsbook as reported
by EveryMatrix’s administrative systems.
Less COGS
EveryMatrix Fees EveryMatrix, as the trading platform, odds feed,

and a variable percentage of the gross gaming
revenue above this fixed fee component.
Transaction Fees Fixed and variable fees payable to financial
intermediaries for the deposit and withdrawal
transactions by customers of betting funds into
and out of the Favourit Platform.
Regional Taxation Gaming tax may be payable to regulators in
various jurisdictions that Favourit operates. In the
UK, this is currently 15% of gross gaming revenue
paid to the UK Gambling Commission.
Value Added Tax VAT may be payable in various jurisdictions in
which Favourit operates. VAT payable in the UK is
currently 20%.
Marketing Costs Marketing costs are costs to acquire and maintain
customer betting activity on the Favourit Platform
and include bonuses, free bets and other
initiatives to grow the customer base.
Affiliate Fees Where affiliates are used to acquire customers to
the Favourit Platform in certain markets, a revenue
share of net gaming revenue or cost per
acquisition fee is typically paid.
= Net Gaming Revenue The amount of gross gaming revenue left after
deducting all costs of goods sold (COGS)
specified above.
Less Opex The normal operational expenditure of the
company
including
staff,
development,
technology, communications, rent, travel etc.
= EBITDA The operating profit of the company.

7.5 How has Favourit performed following the launch of its Platform?

Since the launch of the Favourit Platform, at the end of 2014, the early results of Favourit’s UK business are encouraging, evidenced by strong growth in key performance indicators.[ 20]

The number of users who have both registered as a user of the Favourit Platform and deposited cash to enable real money betting began to rise materially in the second half of the calendar year.[ 21] This was largely a function of:

  • Favourit launching targeted digital marketing initiatives, in particular targeting European football promotions around English Premier League, Champions League and Europa League; and

  • improvements to Favourit’s registration and signup processes to reduce barriers to entry and time to signup.

Favourit’s key performance indicators demonstrate that as marketing expenditure is invested in the acquisition of customers, deposits and betting turnover also increases. As Favourit’s customer base matures, Favourit expects greater retention of existing customers.[24]

7.6 What is Favourit’s Growth Strategy?

The Favourit Platform has been developed to provide a scalable solution for growth in users and betting activity in a wide range of sports across a spectrum of countries. With this platform now in place and beginning to demonstrate success in its early commercialisation[25] , Favourit plans to pursue the following opportunities:

  • (a) expanding marketing efforts in the UK to increase the number of new customers that are actively engaged and bet through the Favourit Platform;

  • (b) refining and maintaining the customer user experience in order to enhance the repeat visitation and active use of Favourit’s existing customer base in the UK;

  • (c) exploring opportunities and acquisitions to expand both the customer base available to utilise the Favourit Platform and to expand the reach of Favourit into other markets;

  • (d) exploring international expansion into other markets as the majority of Favourit’s current revenue is derived from the UK; and

  • (e) reviewing potential acquisitions complementary to Favourit’s business and strategy, both in Australia and internationally.

24 This data is based on Favourit’s internal administrative reporting systems. Please note that historical performance is not a guarantee of future performance and Favourit gives no guarantee that it will be able to continue to perform in this way in the future.

The objective of Favourit’s user experience is to provide a more contextual, relevant and interesting offering to customers compared to traditional transactional experiences.

Favourit has partnered with technology and licensing partner, EveryMatrix, which provides transactional, pricing and risk management services. Favourit (via its subsidiary, Favourit Enterprises) markets gaming services provided by EveryMatrix to customers based in jurisdictions in which EveryMatrix is licensed. EveryMatrix has licenses in the UK, Malta, Curacao and Ireland.

Under UK Gambling Commission licence regulations, Favourit (via its subsidiary, Favourit Enterprises) is permitted to directly market sports betting services to UK residents on the basis that it is a partner of EveryMatrix and EveryMatrix is licensed to provide these services under the UKGC Licence. Favourit chose to deploy the Favourit Platform initially in the UK market due to the mature and regulated nature of this market.

Favourit is actively seeking new, regulated market opportunities to expand the platform’s operations as well as additional product additions to complement sports betting operations.

The Favourit Platform’s product roadmap focuses on continued development of functionality to enhance the personalisation and usability of the platform without impacting core betting usability. Favourit is able to respond rapidly to customer feedback and empirical testing. Key areas of Favourit’s short term product development include:

  • the commercialisation of a casino product to customers in regulated markets;

  • developing further personalisation features to deepen customer engagement; and

  • the continued design evolution of web and mobile based experiences.

7.8 Key Dependencies of Favourit’s Business Model

8.4 Funding

The funding for the Company’s short to medium term activities will be generated from the offer of Shares pursuant to the Public Offer under this Prospectus (see Section 6.4). As and when further funds are required, the Company expects to raise additional capital from the issue of securities.

At present, Favourit has a cash requirement of approximately A$230,000 to A$250,000 per month. Costs may rise in the future as a result of expansion strategies and opportunities which may cause greater or increased operational losses to Favourit ahead of revenue growth projections. This may require Favourit to seek funding to implement these strategies and opportunities going forward.

8.5

Dividend Policy

It is anticipated that, post-completion of the Transaction, the Merged Group will focus on increasing commercialisation, development and marketing of the Favourit Platform. The Company does not expect to declare any dividends during this period.

Any future determination as to the payment of dividends by the Company will be at the discretion of the Board and will depend on the availability of distributable earnings and operating results and financial condition of the Company, future capital requirements and general business and other factors considered relevant by the Board. No assurance in relation to the payment of dividends or franking credits attaching to dividends can be given by the Company.

8.6 Capital Structure

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company has 1,614,034 Shares on issue (on a post-Consolidation basis).

The expected capital structure of the Company following completion of the Offers (assuming full subscription under the Public Offer and that the Favourit Offer, Adviser Offer and Celsius Noteholders Offer are fully accepted) is summarised below. Refer to the Investigating Accountant’s Report set out in Section 12 of this Prospectus for further details.

9. RISK FACTORS

9.1 Introduction

The Securities offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below (together with the Key Risks set out in Section 5), together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, before deciding whether to apply for Securities and to consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

This Section identifies circumstances that the Directors regard as the major risks associated with an investment in the Company and which may have a material adverse impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Shares if they were to arise.

The Board aims, and will aim, to manage these risks by carefully planning the Company’s activities and implementing risk control measures. However, some of the risks identified below are highly unpredictable and the Company is limited to the extent to which they can effectively manage them.

The following risk factors are not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed. In addition, this Section has been prepared without taking into account investors’ individual financial objectives, financial situation and particular needs. Investors should seek professional investment advice if they have any queries in relation to making an investment in the Company.

9.2 Risks relating to the change in nature and scale of activities

(a) Re-quotation of Securities on ASX

The Acquisition is dependent upon the satisfaction of a number of conditions, which include (but are not limited to) completion of the Public Offer and re-compliance with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules.

There is a risk that the Company may be unable to meet the requirements of ASX for re-quotation of its Shares on the ASX. Should this occur, the Shares will not be able to be traded until such time as those requirements can be met, if at all. Shareholders may be prevented from trading their Shares should the Company be suspended until such time as it does re-comply with the ASX Listing Rules.

(b) Dilution Risk

The Company currently has 1,614,034 Shares on issue. Pursuant to the Acquisition, the Company proposes to issue:

  • (i) the Consideration Shares;

  • (ii) the Adviser Shares;

  • (iii) the Conversion Securities; and

  • (iv) Shares to raise at least $4,000,000 and up to $6,000,000 as part of the Public Offer.

51

On issue of the Consideration Shares, the minimum subscription of Shares under the Public Offer, the Adviser Shares and the Conversion Securities, based on raising the maximum under the Public Offer (on an undiluted basis):

  • (i) the existing Shareholders will retain approximately 1.61% of the Company’s issued share capital;

  • (ii) the Vendors will hold approximately 60.56% of the Company’s issued share capital;

  • (iii) APCF (or its nominees) will hold approximately 3.63% of the Company’s issued share capital;

  • (iv) the Celsius Noteholders will hold approximately 4.21% of the Company’s issued share capital; and

  • (v) the investors under the Capital Raising will hold approximately 19.99% of the Company’s issued share capital.

There is also a risk that the interests of Shareholders will be further diluted as a result of future capital raisings required in order to fund the development of the business.

(c) Liquidity Risk

On Settlement, the Company proposes to issue the Consideration Shares, Adviser Shares, and Conversion Securities. The Directors understand that the ASX may treat these securities as restricted securities in accordance with Chapter 9 of the ASX Listing Rules. However, submissions will be made to the ASX to apply for cash formula relief in respect of some of these Securities.

Based on the post-offer capital structure (assuming no further Shares are issued or Options exercised), the Consideration Shares, Adviser Shares, and the Conversion Securities will equate to approximately 68.4% of the issued Share capital on an undiluted basis (assuming maximum subscription under the Public Offer). This could be considered an increased liquidity risk as a large portion of issued capital may not be able to be traded freely for a period of time.

(d) Contractual Risk

Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, Settlement is subject to the fulfilment of the Conditions Precedent.

The ability of the Company to achieve its stated objectives will depend on the performance by the parties of their obligations under the HOA. If any party defaults in the performance of their obligations, it may be necessary for the Company to approach a court to seek a legal remedy, which can be costly.

52

9.3 Risks in respect of Favourit’s current operations

(a) Termination, suspension or, cancellation of gambling licence(s) or of UK Whitelabel Agreement

Given that a significant majority of Favourit’s customers are UK residents, the most material risks are in respect of the UKGC Licence and the UK Whitelabel Agreement. In particular:

  • (i) a risk exists that the UKGC Licence may be suspended, terminated or cancelled. If this occurs, EveryMatrix would no longer be permitted to offer gaming services to its whitelabel partners such as Favourit; and

  • (ii) a risk exists that EveryMatrix may terminate the UK Whitelabel Agreement.

In both instances, Favourit will no longer be able to market EveryMatrix’s services to its UK resident customers. This is likely to cause a loss of revenue and profit for Favourit. Favourit, to resume marketing to UK residents, will need to find a white label partner to replace EveryMatrix or obtain a UKGC gambling licence itself.

As at the date of this document, Favourit has not been advised by EveryMatrix of the existence of any circumstance which is likely to give rise to:

  • (i) the UKGC Licence being terminated, suspended or cancelled; or

  • (ii) the UK Whitelabel Agreement being terminated.

These risks are set out in more detail below.

Suspension or termination of the UKGC Licence

The UKGC Licence may be suspended or terminated if EveryMatrix fails to meet the conditions of this licence. This is not a risk which Favourit can mitigate and this risk exists irrespective of Favourit’s conduct.

For example, EveryMatrix has numerous and broad-ranging obligations under the UKGC Licence, including to:

  • (i) pay gaming taxes to the UKGC;

  • (ii) restrict minors from accessing EveryMatrix’s services;

  • (iii) keep customer funds separate to all other funds held by EveryMatrix; and

  • (iv) make an annual financial contribution to one or more organisation(s) which research the prevention and treatment of gambling-related harm.

In the event that EveryMatrix fails to comply with the conditions of its UKGC Licence, that breach may lead to the suspension or termination of the UKGC Licence by the UKGC.

53

Termination of the UK Whitelabel Agreement

EveryMatrix’s termination rights under the UK Whitelabel Agreement arise in circumstances which include the following:

  • (i) Favourit is in material breach of the Agreement and does not rectify the breach within 30 days following written notice of the breach received from EveryMatrix[26] ;

  • (ii) Favourit becomes insolvent[27] ;

  • (iii) a regulatory or government body orders EveryMatrix to terminate its relationship with Favourit[28] ;

  • (iv) Favourit fails to pay any amount due under the Agreement to EveryMatrix and does not make this payment within 7 days of receiving a written notice from EveryMatrix demanding payment;

  • (v) Favourit is in breach of any regulations, conditions or requirements of any applicable licensing and regulatory authorities and does not remedy this breach within 10 business days of receiving notice from EveryMatrix; or

  • (vi) 50% or more of Favourit’s shares are acquired by a competitor of EveryMatrix.

Following the initial six months of the term of the UK Whitelabel Agreement, EveryMatrix may terminate the agreement at any time by giving at least six months prior written notice.[29]

(b) Computer system risk

Favourit, by necessity, places and will continue to place significant reliance on its and EveryMatrix’s computer systems and related infrastructure for ongoing operations. A prolonged failure of the computer systems and/or related infrastructure operated by Favourit and EveryMatrix and supporting any of its products or businesses may result in a loss of revenue and profit to Favourit and in such circumstances may have an adverse effect on the operational and financial performance of Favourit.

(c) Future Capital Needs

At present, Favourit has a cash requirement of approximately A$230,000 to A$250,000 per month. Costs may rise in the future as a result of expansion strategies and opportunities which may cause further or greater operational losses to Favourit ahead of revenue growth projections. Therefore, unless Favourit becomes operationally profitable and cash flow positive, further funding may be required to advance the business objectives of Favourit in the future.

28 This right is reciprocal. 29 This right is reciprocal.

54

(d) Limited operating history

Favourit was incorporated in May 2012 and therefore has limited operating history. Furthermore, Favourit’s real money betting operations commenced in November 2014. Given the limited operating history of Favourit, no assurance can be given that Favourit will achieve commercial viability through the implementation of its business plan. While Favourit is now earning revenue through customers betting using its services, there is no certainty around the number of continued customers (if any) that will use the services.

(e) Potential liability dispute

On or about 9 October 2015, Favourit received notification of a potential claim that may be made by a third party affiliate marketing partner (Potential Claimant), for additional commission allegedly owing to the Potential Claimant. Whilst the matter has not resulted in a formal claim as at the date of this Prospectus, Favourit estimates the amount under dispute to be approximately EUR74,764 (being approximately A$110,692 as at the date of this Prospectus).

Favourit is confident that this will not result in any further commissions payable or costs being incurred by Favourit from this Potential Claimant. Favourit has received no further correspondence on the matter since the original notification and its response denying the alleged liability.

(f) Key supplier and software risks

Favourit is contracted with UK and Romanian based technology and whitelabel licencing provider EveryMatrix Software Limited to provide Favourit’s core transactional software and for its real money sportsbook operations. EveryMatrix as a software supplier is a private company, supplying a number of international operator’s technology solutions.

EveryMatrix may be purchased by another market competitor, or be subject to legal action which renders its performance as a service supplier limited. This could adversely impact Favourit’s operations, and may force Favourit to identify and engage an alternative supplier at a higher cost or different commercial arrangement. As such, this is likely to have a material impact on Favourit’s ability to earn revenue. Please also see Section 9.3(a) above.

Furthermore, Favourit is reliant on the availability and quality of EveryMatrix’s software. It is possible that an event could occur (ie. a software, hardware or connectivity outage, a software error or malfunction) that renders critical functionality that Favourit relies on for business to become unavailable affecting Favourit’s ability to service its customers.

(g) Attracting and retaining customers to the Platform

The Company’s revenue will be affected by its ability to attract and retain customers on the Favourit Platform. Various factors can affect the level of customers using the Favourit Platform, including:

(i) Marketing and promotions: If the Company’s marketing and promotion efforts are not effective this may result in fewer customers using the Favourit Platform.

55

  • (ii) Brand damage: If the Company or Favourit suffer from reputational damage, customer numbers could be affected.

  • (iii) Interruptions to service provision: Favourit relies on on third parties such as EveryMatrix to provide key aspects to the customer’s experience including betting odds. If these services are interrupted customer numbers are likely to be affected.

(h) Regulatory risks

The activities of Favourit are conducted in a highly regulated industry. In most jurisdictions, the sports betting and casino activities that Favourit promotes can be provided only under licence and the provision and promotion of these services is subject to the conditions of that licence as well as all applicable laws.

Given that gambling is a highly regulated industry, a risk always exists that the legislation and/or government policy in relation to gambling will change and that these changes may have an adverse impact on Favourit’s operational and financial performance.

At present, Favourit’s directors are not aware of any likely changes to the gambling laws of the United Kingdom.

However, the following risks exist:

  • (i) In future, EveryMatrix, as licence holder, may be required to pay to racing and/or sporting bodies fees in respect of its use of the information relating to the races/sports administered by these bodies. For example, under the laws of each Australian State/Territory, a wagering operator that publishes race field information must pay to the relevant racing body fees in respect of this use.

If these laws are adopted in jurisdictions relevant to EveryMatrix’s business, an obligation to pay those fees may arise resulting in an increase in its costs of doing business which, in turn, may increase Favourit’s costs.

  • (ii) A risk exists that Favourit may be considered to require a gambling licence by a gambling regulator of a jurisdiction in which it conducts business.

  • (iii) Additionally, even though Favourit does not accept Australian residents as customers, a risk exists that Favourit could be seen by Australian gambling regulators to be conducting a gambling business in Australia. However, the Directors consider this risk to be immaterial, as the Favourit entity based in Australia only owns intellectual property and holds shares in the subsidiaries.

(i) Competition and new technologies

The industry in which Favourit is involved is subject to increasing domestic and global competition which is fast-paced and fastchanging. While the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, whose activities or actions may positively or negatively

56

affect the operating and financial performance of the Company’s projects and business. For instance, new technologies could result in the Favourit Platform not being differentiated to other similar offerings.

The size and financial strength of some of Favourit’s competitors may make it difficult for Favourit to maintain a competitive position in the geographic markets in which it chooses to compete in. In particular, Favourit’s ability to develop additional platform features could be adversely affected if it is unable to respond effectively and/or in a timely manner to the strategies and actions of competitors and potential competitors or the entry of new competitors into the market. This may in turn impede the financial condition and rate of growth of the Company.

The key competition risk is in achieving appreciable market share and differentiation from its key competitors.

(j)

Sales and marketing success

Following Settlement, the Company intends to focus on the development and marketing of the Favourit Platform. By its nature, there is no guarantee that the Favourit Platform’s development and marketing campaign will be successful. In the event that it is not, the Company may encounter difficulty creating market awareness of the Favourit Platform. This would likely have an adverse impact on the Company’s potential profitability.

Even if the Company does successfully commercialise the Favourit Platform in the long-term, there is a risk the Company will not achieve a commercial return. For example, new technology may overtake the Company’s technology.

(k) Hacker attacks

Favourit will rely upon the availability of its Favourit Platform to provide services to customers and generate revenue. Hackers could render the Favourit Platform unavailable or cause customers’ personal information to be compromised.

Although Favourit has strategies in place to minimise such attacks, these strategies may not be successful. Unavailability of the Favourit Platform could lead to a loss of revenue for the Company while compromising customers’ information could hinder the Company’s abilities to retain existing customers or attract new customers, which would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s growth.

(l) Domain name risk

The Favourit Platform depends on its brand and domain name to allow customers to access and use its services. Favourit has registered a domain name for the purposes of its website. However, should the Company not renew or otherwise lose control of its domain name, it would lose all website traffic directed to that domain. This would likely adversely affect the Company’s revenue.

57

(m) Staff Risk

There is a risk that, where there is a turnover of staff who have knowledge of the technology, operations and business, that knowledge will be lost in the event that those staff resign or retire. This involves the risk that those staff will have information in respect of Favourit’s intellectual property which has a commercial value to Favourit as well as an opportunity cost for replacement of those staff and subsequent training.

This risk is mitigated as Favourit has historically had low levels of staff turnover. In addition, all staff contracts contain express provisions with respect to ownership of intellectual property and restraints of trade to limit any potential loss suffered by Favourit to the maximum extent possible.

(n)

Dependence on the internet

The successful continuation of the Favourit Platform will depend to some extent on the continued acceptance of the internet as a communications and commerce platform for individuals and enterprises. The internet could become less viable as a business tool due to delays in the development or adoption of new standards and protocols to handle increased demands of internet activity, security, reliability, cost, ease-of-use, accessibility and quality-of-service.

The performance of the internet and its acceptance as a business tool have been harmed by “viruses,” “worms” and similar malicious programs, and the internet has experienced a variety of outages and other delays as a result of damage to portions of its infrastructure. If for any reason the internet does not remain a widespread communications medium and commercial platform, the demand for the Company’s products would be significantly reduced, which would harm its business.

(o)

Taxation risks

International markets that Favourit operates in continue to experience ongoing taxation changes by gambling regulators. Taxation must be assessed on a market by market basis to ensure there is adequate margin flexibility to provide promotional strategies enough scope to acquire customers. Markets that Favourit operates within may have taxation changes made by the regulator which results in the market not being profitable for Favourit in the long run, and may require it to abandon operations within that market.

(p) Group structure risks

Favourit has structured its group entity so that the sportsbook operations remain at arms-length to the Favourit Platform IP ownership by the current parent company (Favourit Global Pty Ltd) using an Isle of Man registered subsidiary (Favourit Enterprises Ltd). Should regulatory or taxation changes occur in the Isle of Man, Favourit may need to reconsider its group structure, and incur expenses in both professional advisory and corporate structuring.

(q) Foreign exchange risks

Favourit’s earnings are generated in Euros from operations with partner EveryMatrix Software Limited by an entity within the Isle of Man which

58

manages its accounts in GBP. Further, the business operates by offering players multiple currencies which they can deposit and withdraw. Favourit is therefore exposed to foreign exchange risk both in translation of subsidiary accounts, and transaction risks relating to obligations to client accounts.

Favourit may be exposed to rapid and material movements in exchange rates, which could affect its balance sheet and cash position. This risk is particularly pertinent to the Company as the majority of Favourit’s income will be derived from the Favourit Platform in the UK.

(r) Operational sportsbook risk management

Favourit operates its sportsbook business by accepting bets from players and either receiving the stake as winnings to the sports book (“gross win” for customers losing bets), or paying back the customer their stake plus winnings (for customers winning bets). The nature of Favourit’s business is therefore directly linked to (a) the outcome of sporting events and (b) client risk based on betting activity. While Favourit employs an active risk management function, it cannot influence the outcome of sporting events, and therefore any negative run of winning events could have a material impact on Favourit’s sportsbook performance. Further, While Favourit actively profiles customers, it does not intercept its customer’s bets, and therefore, has a limited degree of risk management control which may result in clients having large winning bets which Favourit must pay out winnings to the client.

9.4 General Risks Relating to the Merged Group

(a) Disposal of View Nickel

Subject to completion of the Transaction, the Company is seeking to dispose of its nickel interests at Carnilya Hill in Western Australia, which it holds via a joint venture between its subsidiary, View Nickel Pty Ltd (View Nickel) and Mincor Resources NL (Mincor) (30:70) (Joint Venture).

Final rehabilitation costs associated with the Carnilya Hill mine are estimated to be A$570,000, to be shared between View Nickel and Mincor pro-rata to their Joint Venture interests. The timing of any rehabilitation works is at the election of the Joint Venture.

Depending on the outcome of negotiations with a prospective third party purchaser (and the agreement of Mincor), there is a risk that any future disposal of View Nickel may require the Company to contribute (in whole or in part) to the costs of rehabilitation under the original Joint Venture.

(a) Reliance on Key Management

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and directors. There can be no assurance that there will be no detrimental impact on the performance of the Company or its growth potential if one or more of these employees cease their employment and suitable replacements are not identified and engaged in a timely manner.

59

(b) Risk of High Volume of Share Sales

If Settlement occurs, the Company will have issued a significant number of new Securities to various parties. Some of the Vendors and others that receive Shares as a result of the Acquisition or the Public Offer may not intend to continue to hold those Shares and may wish to sell them on the ASX (subject to any applicable escrow period). There is a risk that an increase in the amount of people wanting to sell Shares may adversely impact on the market price of the Company’s Shares.

There can be no assurance that there will be, or continue to be, an active market for Shares or that the price of Shares will increase. As a result, Shareholders may, upon selling their Shares, receive a market price for their securities that is less than the price of Shares offered pursuant to the Public Offer.

(c) Foreign operations

Favourit conducts business in countries outside Australia and there exists risks inherent in doing business in other countries. These risks include changes in regulatory requirements, tariffs, customs, duties and other trade barriers, difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations and monetary exchange rates, longer payment cycles, problems in collecting amounts receivable, political instability, expropriation, nationalisation and war.

(d)

Trading Price of Shares

The Company’s operating results, economic and financial prospects and other factors will affect the trading price of the Shares. In addition, the price of Shares is subject to varied and often unpredictable influences on the market for equities, including, but not limited to general economic conditions including the performance of the Australian dollar on world markets, inflation rates, foreign exchange rates and interest rates, variations in the general market for listed stocks in general, changes to government policy, legislation or regulation, industrial disputes, general operational and business risks and hedging or arbitrage trading activity that may develop involving the Shares.

In particular, the share prices for many companies have been and may in the future be highly volatile, which in many cases may reflect a diverse range of non-company specific influences such as global hostilities and tensions relating to certain unstable regions of the world, acts of terrorism and the general state of the global economy. No assurances can be made that the Company’s market performance will not be adversely affected by any such market fluctuations or factors.

(e) Additional Requirements for Capital

The capital requirements of the Company depend on numerous factors. Depending on the ability of the Company to generate income from its operations, the Company may require further financing in addition to amounts raised under the Public Offer. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations.

60

(f) Litigation Risks

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including intellectual property claims, regulatory and compliance infringements, contractual disputes, occupational health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may impact adversely on the Company’s operations, financial performance and financial position.

(g) Economic Risks

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

Further, share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • (i) general economic outlook;

  • (ii) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (iii) currency fluctuations;

  • (iv) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (v) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (vi) terrorism or other hostilities.

(h) Force Majeure

The Company, now or in the future may be adversely affected by risks outside the control of the Company including labour unrest, civil disorder, war, subversive activities or sabotage, extreme weather conditions, fires, floods, explosions or other catastrophes, epidemics or quarantine restrictions.

(i) Acquisitions

As part of its business strategy, the Company may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, companies, products, technologies and/or products that are complementary to Favourit’s business. Any such future transactions are accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making acquisitions of companies, products and technologies, such as integrating cultures and systems of operation, relocation of operations, short term strain on working capital requirements, achieving the sales and margins anticipated and retaining key staff and customer and supplier relationships.

9.5 This investment is highly speculative

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above risk factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may materially affect the future

61

financial performance of the Company and the value of the Securities offered under this Prospectus.

Therefore, the Securities to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Securities. The Company does not expect to declare any dividends during the first two years following completion of the Transaction (see further Section 8.5).

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is highly speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

Notes to the financial information

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The principle accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial information are set out below.

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial information has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement, but not all the disclosure requirements of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporations Act, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with these Standards ensures that the financial information complies with the recognition and measurement principles of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The Consolidated Pro Forma Statement of Financial Position assumes completion by the Company of the legal acquisition of Favourit.

For accounting purposes, the legal acquisition of Favourit by the Company does not represent a business combination as outlined in Australian Accounting Standard AASB 3 Business Combinations (“AASB 3”). At the time of the transaction, the Company will not constitute a business in its own right as defined by AASB 3.

To recognise the effects of this transaction, the financial information has been prepared using ‘reverse acquisition accounting principles’ (as set out in AASB 3), in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee’s Interpretation guidance dated March 2013.

Accordingly, the financial statements of the Company have been prepared as a continuation of the financial statements of Favourit. Favourit (as the deemed acquirer) has accounted for the acquisition of the Company from the acquisition date. However, as the Company did not constitute a business at the acquisition date, no goodwill can be recognised as a result of the transaction and the excess of the notional transaction consideration paid over the assets and liabilities of the Company acquired has been recognised as an expense in the income statement.

Historical cost convention

The financial information has been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the consolidated entity.

79

There have been no judgements, apart from those involving estimation, in applying accounting policies that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements.

Following is a summary of the key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation at reporting date that have not been disclosed elsewhere in these financial statements.

Exploration and evaluation expenditure

The Board of Directors determines when an area of interest should be abandoned. When a decision is made that an area of interest is not commercially viable, all costs that have been capitalised in respect of that area of interest are written off. The Directors’ decision is made after considering the likelihood of finding commercially viable reserves.

The Board of Directors regularly review each project, which includes an assessment of possible impairment, taking into consideration economic viability of operations and validity of licences and permits.

Environmental Issues

Balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation, and the Directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the company’s development and its current environmental impact the directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate.

Taxation

Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, and are based on the best estimates of Directors. These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the Company as they pertain to current income taxation legislation, and the Directors’ understanding thereof.

No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents that Directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by the Australian Taxation Office.

Share based payment transactions

The company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using an appropriate valuation model.

Impairment

The consolidated entity assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events specific to the consolidated entity that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Validity of licences and permits, economic viability of current operations and economic viability for future operations are all elements that are considered. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions.

80

(b) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all entities controlled by the Company at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity’s activities. Control will generally exist where the parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting power of an entity. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are also considered.

Where controlled entities have entered or left the group during the year, the financial performance of those entities are included only for the period of the year that they were controlled.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated entity have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity.

Non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are shown separately within the Equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The noncontrolling interests in the net assets comprise their interests at the date of the original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date.

(c) Reverse assets acquisition

In accordance with the principles of AASB 3, the proposed acquisition by the Company (the legal parent) of Favourit (the legal subsidiary), is deemed a reverse asset acquisition since the substance of the transaction is that existing shareholders of Favourit will have effectively acquired the Company. Under reverse acquisition accounting, the consolidated financial statements are prepared as if Favourit had acquired the Company, not vice versa as represented by the legal position. However, as the Company did not constitute a business at the acquisition date, no goodwill can be recognised as a result of the transaction.

In reverse acquisition accounting, the cost of the business is deemed to have been incurred by the legal subsidiary (the acquirer for accounting purposes) in the form of equity instruments issued to the owners of the legal parent (the acquiree for accounting purposes).

As a consequence:

  • the cost of investment held by the legal parent (the Company) in the legal subsidiary (Favourit) is reversed on consolidation and the cost of the reverse acquisition (based on the fair value of the shareholding of the Company acquired) is eliminated on consolidation against the consolidated equity and accumulated losses of the Company at the date control is passed. The effect of this is to restate the consolidated equity, retained earnings and

81

reserves balances to reflect those of Favourit at the date of the acquisition;

• the amount recognised as issued equity instruments is determined by adding the deemed cost of the acquisition, calculated by reference to the fair value of the shareholding in the Company acquired, to the issued equity of the legal subsidiary (Favourit) immediately before the proposed acquisition; and

  • the consolidated financial statements are issued under the name of the legal parent (the Company) but are a continuation of the financial statements of the deemed acquirer (Favourit) under the reverse acquisition rules.

(d) Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as the provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets, is the rate inherent in the instrument.

Revenue recognition relating to the provision of services is determined with reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period and where outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably. Stage of completion is determined with reference to the services performed to date as a percentage of total anticipated services to be performed. Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that related expenditure is recoverable.

Gains and losses on all betting and gaming activities are treated as revenue, which is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable from customers. Gross win includes wagering with bonuses and excludes free bets and the expense of the bonus granted. For sportsbook and casino, games, revenue represents gains and losses, being the amount staked and fees received, less total payouts and the fair value of reward points issued from betting activity in the period. Open betting positions are carried at fair value and gains and losses arising on these positions are recognised in revenue. When a bet is placed and reward points are issued under the Favourit Rewards Program, the fair value of the reward points is deferred and recorded as a liability. The deferred revenue is recognised when the reward points are used or when they expire.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax.

82

(e) Income tax

The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income).

Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses.

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

83

(f) Trade receivables

All trade debtors are recognised at the amounts receivable as they are due for settlement no more than 120 days from the date of recognition.

Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when some doubt as to collection exists and in any event when the debt is more than 60 days overdue.

(g) Property, plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

The depreciable amount of all plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the consolidated entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

The expected useful lives are as follows:

• Plant and equipment 3-5 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

(h) Impairment of assets

At the end of each reporting period, the consolidated entity assesses whether there is any indication that an asset is impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of

84

the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in the profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another standard (e.g. in accordance with the revaluation model in AASB 116). Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other standard.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the consolidated entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

(i) Intangibles Other than Goodwill

Research and development

Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.

Capitalised development costs are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

(j) Foreign currency translations and balances

Functional and presentation currency

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

Transactions and balances

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

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

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

85

Group companies

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

  • Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

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

  • Retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position via other comprehensive income. The cumulative amount of these differences is reclassified into profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed of.

(k) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by the consolidated entity during the reporting period which remains unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amount being normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

(l) Borrowings

Loans and debentures are carried at their principal amounts which represent the present value of future cash flows associated with servicing the debt. Interest is accrued over the period it becomes due and is recorded as part of other creditors.

On issue of convertible notes, the fair value of the liability component, being the obligation to make future payments of principal and interest to noteholders, is calculated using a market interest rate for an equivalent non-convertible note. The residual amount, representing the fair value of the conversion option, is included in equity as other equity securities with no recognition of any change in the value of the option in subsequent periods. The liability is included in borrowings and carried on an amortised cost basis with interest on the notes recognised as borrowing costs on an effective yield basis until the liability is extinguished on conversion or maturity of the notes.

(m) Exploration and evaluation expenditure

Exploration and evaluation expenditures are written off as incurred, except when such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation, or sale, of an area of interest. In addition, exploration assets recognised on acquisition of an entity are carried forward provided that exploration and/or evaluation activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that 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.

86

The expenditure carried forward when recovery is expected represents an accumulation of direct net exploration and evaluation costs incurred by or on behalf of the consolidated entity and applicable indirect costs, in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure are current.

The successful commercial exploitation of all exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent upon the Company raising adequate debt and equity funding, which is dependent upon continued investor support.

If it is established subsequently that economically recoverable reserves exist in a particular area of interest, resulting in the decision to develop a commercial mining operation, then in that year the accumulated expenditure attributable to that area, to the extent that it does not exceed the recoverable amount for the area concerned, will be transferred to mine development. As such it will be subsequently amortised against production from that area. Any excess of accumulated expenditure over recoverable amounts will be written off to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

(n) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with short periods to maturity and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within shortterm borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

(o) Employee benefits

Provision is made for the consolidated entity’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wages increases and the probability that the employee may satisfy vesting requirements. Those cash outflows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash flows.

Equity-settled compensation

The consolidated entity operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account.

Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the good or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amount is shown in the option reserve.

87

The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using an appropriate valuation model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

(p) Goods and services tax (“GST”)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.

Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(q) Provisions

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

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

(r) New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the consolidated entity.

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

(s) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 31 December 2015. The consolidated entity's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below.

88

AASB 9 Financial Instruments

This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard replaces all previous versions of AASB 9 and completes the project to replace IAS 39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement'. AASB 9 introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets. A financial asset shall be measured at amortised cost, if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, which arise on specified dates and solely principal and interest. All other financial instrument assets are to be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss unless the entity makes an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on equity instruments (that are not held-for-trading) in other comprehensive income ('OCI'). For financial liabilities, the standard requires the portion of the change in fair value that relates to the entity's own credit risk to be presented in OCI (unless it would create an accounting mismatch). New simpler hedge accounting requirements are intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of the entity. New impairment requirements will use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognise an allowance. Impairment will be measured under a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. The standard introduces additional new disclosures. The consolidated entity will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018 but the impact of its adoption is yet to be assessed by the consolidated entity.

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard provides a single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either written, verbal or implied) to be identified, together with the separate performance obligations within the contract; determine the transaction price, adjusted for the time value of money excluding credit risk; allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on a basis of relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service, or estimation approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. Credit risk will be presented separately as an expense rather than adjusted to revenue. For goods, the performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. For services, the performance obligation is satisfied when the service has been provided, typically for promises to transfer services to customers. For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate measure of progress to determine how much revenue should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied. Contracts with customers will be presented in an entity's statement of financial position as a contract liability, a contract asset, or a receivable, depending on the relationship between the entity's performance and the customer's payment. Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required to enable users to understand the

89

contracts with customers; the significant judgments made in applying the guidance to those contracts; and any assets recognised from the costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. The consolidated entity will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018 but the impact of its adoption is yet to be assessed by the consolidated entity.

2. Pro Forma Adjustments

The Consolidated Pro Forma Statement of Financial Position as at 31 December 2015 has been prepared by adjusting the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as at that date to reflect the financial effects of the following transactions as if they had occurred at 31 December 2015.

  • (a) A share consolidation where every 2,000 Shares will be consolidated into 1 Share.

  • (b) The issue of 60,600,000 Consideration Shares with a deemed issue price of $0.20 to the Vendors as consideration for the Favourit acquisition.

  • (c) The issue of 4,208,644 Conversion Shares and 2,104,328 Conversion Options to the Celsius Noteholders in satisfaction of the Company’s repayment obligations under the Celsius Convertible Notes, in accordance with the Celsius Noteholders Offer. The conversion is based on a total convertible notes balance of $841,729 (comprising the convertible notes balance of $821,978, plus pro forma accrued interest to February 2016 of $19,751).

  • (d) The Public Offer issue of 20,000,000 (minimum subscription) to 30,000,000 (maximum subscription) Shares at an issue price of $0.20 per Share, to raise a minimum of $4,000,000 and a maximum of $6,000,000 before expenses of the capital raising. The pro forma adjustments assume that the Public Offer is fully subscribed.

  • (e) Cash costs of undertaking the Public Offer of $592,335 (minimum subscription) to $714,335 (maximum subscription).

  • (f) The issue of 3,636,000 Adviser Shares to APCF at $0.20 per Share.

3. Reverse assets acquisition

The proposed acquisition by the Company (the legal parent) of Favourit (the legal subsidiary) is deemed to be a reverse asset acquisition under the principles of AASB 3 since the substance of the transaction is that the existing shareholders of Favourit have effectively acquired the Company. As a result of the reverse acquisition, Favourit is considered to be the accounting acquirer and the Company is considered to be the accounting acquiree, and therefore, the Financial Information has been prepared as a continuation of the financial statements of Favourit.

However, as CLA will not constitute a business at the acquisition date, no goodwill can be recognised as a result of the transaction, and the excess of the notional transaction consideration paid over the assets and liabilities of CLA acquired, has been recognised as an expense in the income statement.

The following treatment has been adopted on the basis that the acquisition of Favourit is deemed to be completed prior to the capital raising as set out in Note 2(iv), but after the pro forma adjustments set out in Note 2(iii).

18. Contingent liabilities

The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, View Nickel Pty Ltd, has a 30% joint venture interest in the Carnilya Hill Joint Venture. The Carnilya Hill Joint Venture (“JV”) is subject to potential cost in respect to the rehabilitation of the mine. Accordingly, through its joint venture interest, the Company has a contingent liability. The rehabilitation provision is triggered either when the JV decides to complete the full rehabilitation, when the Department of Mines and Petroleum mandates the JV must complete the full rehabilitation or when the tenements are relinquished. None of these events are expected to occur in the near future. There is uncertainty as to whether the future liabilities will arise in respect of this item and at current, the amount cannot be reliably estimated.

19. Related party disclosure

  • (a) The Directors of the Company at the Prospectus Date are:

  • Mr William Oliver (Non-Executive Chairman)

  • Mr Ranko Matic (Non-Executive Director)

  • Mr Alistair Muir (Non-Executive Director)

  • (b) Directors’ holdings of shares, directors’ remuneration and other directors’ interests are set out in Section 10 of this Prospectus.

  • (c) There have been no related party transactions other than the directors’ transactions set out in Sections 10 and those relating to the material contracts set out in Section 14 of this Prospectus.

Scope

Historical Financial Information

You have requested RSM Financial Services Australia Pty Ltd to review the following historical financial information of CLA and Favourit included in the Prospectus:

  • n the Reviewed Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income of CLA for the half-year ended 31 December 2015;

  • n the Audited Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive income of CLA for the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014;

  • n the Audited Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income of Favourit for the half-year ended 31 December 2015;

  • n the Audited Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income of Favourit for the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014;

  • n the Reviewed Statement of Cash Flows of CLA for the half-year ended 31 December 2015;

  • n the Audited Statement of Cash Flows of CLA for the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014;

  • n the Audited Statement of Cash Flows of Favourit for the half-year ended 31 December 2015;

  • n the Audited Statement of Cash Flows of Favourit for the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014;

  • n the Reviewed Statement of Financial Position of CLA as at 31 December 2015; and

  • n the Audited Statement of Financial Position of Favourit as at 31 December 2015.

The historical financial information of CLA has been prepared in accordance with the stated basis of preparation, being the recognition and measurement principles contained in Australian Accounting Standards and the Company’s adopted accounting policies.

The Historical Financial Information for the half-year ended 31 December 2015 has been extracted from the Company’s financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2015, which were reviewed by RSM Australia in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, and on which no matter was identified that would result in RSM Australia considering that the financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2015 did not give a true and fair view of CLA’s financial position at 31 December 2015 and of its performance for the halfyear ended on that date. For the half-year ended 31 December 2015, RSM Australia’s review included an emphasis of matter that, without qualifying their conclusion, drew notice to the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast doubt over the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Historical Financial Information for the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014 has been extracted from the Company’s financial statements for each financial year, which were audited by RSM Australia in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, and on which an unqualified audit opinion was issued for each financial year. For each of these two financial years, RSM Australia’s audit report included an emphasis of matter that, without qualifying their audit opinion, drew notice to the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast doubt over the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The historical financial information of Favourit has been prepared in accordance with the stated basis of preparation, being the recognition and measurement principles described in Australian Accounting Standards, and Favourit’s adopted accounting policies.

The Historical Financial Information of Favourit for the half-year ended 31 December 2015 has been extracted from Favourit’s financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2015, which were audited by RSM Australia in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, and on which an unqualified audit opinion was issued.

The Historical Financial Information for the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014 has been extracted from Favourit’s financial statements for each financial year, which were audited by RSM Australia in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, and on which an unqualified audit opinion was issued for each financial year.

The historical financial information is presented in the Prospectus in an abbreviated form, insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Accounting Standards applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 .

Pro Forma Historical Financial Information

You have requested RSM Financial Services Australia Pty Ltd to review the following pro forma historical financial information of CLA and Favourit included in the Prospectus:

  • n the Consolidated Pro Forma Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income for the halfyear ended 31 December 2015, and the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014;

  • n the Consolidated Pro Forma Statement of Cash Flows for the half-year ended 31 December 2015, and the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2014; and

  • n the Consolidated Pro Forma Statement of Financial Position as at 31 December 2015.

The pro forma historical financial information has been derived from the historical financial information of CLA and Favourit, after adjusting for the effects of pro forma adjustments described in Section 11 of the Prospectus. The stated basis of preparation is the recognition and measurement principles contained in Australian Accounting Standards applied to the historical financial information and the transactions to which the pro forma adjustments relate, as described in Section 11 of the Prospectus, as if those transactions had occurred as at the date of the historical financial information. Due to its nature, the pro-forma historical financial information does not represent the Company’s actual or prospective financial performance, cash flows and financial position.

Directors’ responsibility

The directors of CLA are responsible for the preparation of the historical financial information and pro forma historical financial information, including the selection and determination of pro forma adjustments made to the historical financial information and included in the pro forma historical financial information. This includes responsibility for such internal controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of historical financial information and pro forma historical financial information that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a limited assurance conclusion on the financial information based on the procedures performed and the evidence we have obtained. We have conducted our engagement in accordance with the Standard on Assurance Engagement ASAE 3450 Assurance Engagements involving Corporate Fundraisings and / or Prospective Financial Information .

Page 3 of 5

==> picture [117 x 61] intentionally omitted <==

We made such enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and performed such procedures as we, in our professional judgment, considered reasonable in the circumstances including:

  • n a consistency check of the application of the stated basis of preparation, to the historical and pro forma historical financial information;

  • n a review of CLA and Favourit’s work papers, accounting records and other documents;

  • n enquiry of directors, management personnel and advisors;

  • n consideration of the pro forma adjustments described in Note 2 in Section 11 of the financial information; and

  • n the performance of analytical procedures applied to the historical and pro forma historical financial information.

A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain reasonable assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Pro Forma Historical Financial Information

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the pro forma historical financial information, as described in Section 11 of the Prospectus, and comprising:

13. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

13.1 ASX Corporate Governance Council Principles and Recommendations

The Company has adopted comprehensive systems of control and accountability as the basis for the administration of corporate governance. The Board is committed to administering the policies and procedures with openness and integrity, pursuing the true spirit of corporate governance commensurate with the Company’s needs.

To the extent applicable, the Company has adopted The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (3rd Edition) as published by ASX Corporate Governance Council (Recommendations).

The Board seeks, where appropriate, to provide accountability levels that meet or exceed the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Principles and Recommendations.

Details on the Company’s corporate governance procedures, policies and practices can be obtained from the Company website at http://www.favouritlimited.com.

Board of Directors

The Board is responsible for the corporate governance of the Company. The Board develops strategies for the Company, reviews strategic objectives and monitors performance against those objectives. The goals of the corporate governance processes are to:

  • (a) maintain and increase Shareholder value;

  • (b) ensure a prudential and ethical basis for the Company’s conduct and activities; and

  • (c) ensure compliance with the Company’s legal and regulatory objectives.

Consistent with these goals, the Board assumes the following responsibilities:

  • (a) developing initiatives for profit and asset growth;

  • (b) reviewing the corporate, commercial and financial performance of the Company on a regular basis;

  • (c) acting on behalf of, and being accountable to, the Shareholders; and

  • (d) identifying business risks and implementing actions to manage those risks and corporate systems to assure quality.

The Company is committed to the circulation of relevant materials to Directors in a timely manner to facilitate Directors’ participation in the Board discussions on a fully-informed basis.

Composition of the Board

Election of Board members is substantially the province of the Shareholders in general meeting. However, subject thereto, the Company is committed to the following principles:

104

  • (a) the Board is to comprise Directors with a blend of skills, experience and attributes appropriate for the Company and its business; and

  • (b) the principal criterion for the appointment of new Directors is their ability to add value to the Company and its business.

The Board has appointed a Nomination and Remuneration Committee (Committee) and established a Charter for the Committee which includes the identification and recommendation of potential director appointments. Where a casual vacancy arises during the year, the Committee has procedures to select the most suitable candidate with the appropriate experience and expertise to ensure a balanced and effective Board. Any director appointed during the year to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the current Board, holds office until the next General Meeting and is then eligible for re-election by the shareholders.

It is proposed that, while there are 4 directors or less of the Company, all directors will be members of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee with one to be appointed as the chair of the Committee, if the Transaction is successfully completed.

Ethical standards

The Board is committed to the establishment and maintenance of appropriate ethical standards.

Independent professional advice

Subject to the Chairman’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld), the Directors, at the Company’s expense, may obtain independent professional advice on issues arising in the course of their duties.

Remuneration arrangements

The total maximum remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director.

Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

Trading policy

The Board has adopted a policy that sets out the guidelines on the sale and purchase of securities in the Company by its Key Management Personnel (i.e. Directors and, if applicable, any employees reporting directly to the Managing Director). The policy generally provides that written notification to the Chairman must be obtained prior to trading.

External audit

The Company in general meetings is responsible for the appointment of the external auditors of the Company, and the Board from time to time will review the scope, performance and fees of those external auditors.

105

Audit and risk committee

The Board has established an audit and risk committee (Audit and Risk Committee) as part of its Corporate Governance Charter. The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for ensuring the risks and opportunities are identified on a timely basis. To achieve this, the Audit and Risk Committee will implement a risk system which allows for the regular monitoring of identified risk areas and performance against the activities to minimise or control these identified risks.

The Audit and Risk Committee’s purpose is to provide assistance to the Board in fulfilling its corporate governance and monitoring responsibility in relation to the Company’s risks associated with the integrity of financial reporting, internal control systems and external audit functions.

It is proposed that two directors will be members of the Audit and Risk Committee with one to be appointed as the chair of the Committee, if the Transaction is successfully completed.

Diversity Policy

The Board has adopted a diversity policy which provides a framework for the Company to achieve, amongst other things, a diverse and skilled workforce, a workplace culture characterised by inclusive practices and behaviours for the benefit of all staff, improved employment and career development opportunities for women and a work environment that values and utilises the contributions of employees with diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.

13.2 Departures from Recommendations

The Company’s compliance and departures from the Recommendations will be announced to the ASX prior to the Company’s re-instatement to trading.

Following re-admission to the Official List of the ASX, the Company will be required to report any departures from the Recommendations in its annual financial report.

106

15.2 Rights and liabilities attaching to Shares

The Shares offered under this Prospectus will be fully paid ordinary shares in the issued capital of the Company and will, upon issue, rank equally with all other Shares then on issue.

The rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are regulated by the Company’s Constitution, the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules, the ASX Settlement Rules and common law. The following is a summary of the more significant rights and obligations attaching to the Shares. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Further details of the rights attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company, in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative.

For so long as the Company remains a listed entity, Shareholders will be entitled to receive at least 28 days’ prior written notice of any proposed general meeting.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with Section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of Shares, at a general meeting of Shareholders or a class of Shareholders:

  • (i) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (ii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him or her, or in respect of which he or she is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for the Share, but in respect of partly paid Shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such Shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the

115

amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c)

Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any Shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Board may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares. The Board may also from time to time pay to the Shareholders such interim dividends as the Board may determine.

No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Board may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Board, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Company may, by resolution of the Board, implement a dividend reinvestment plan on such terms and conditions as the Board thinks fit and which provides for any dividend which the Board may declare from time to time payable on Shares which are participating Shares in the dividend reinvestment plan, less any amount which the Company shall either pursuant to the Constitution or any law be entitled or obliged to retain, be applied by the Company to the payment of the subscription price of Shares.

(d) Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he or she considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any Shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares offered under the Prospectus are fully paid shares, they are not subject to any calls for money by the Company and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of Shares

Generally, Shares are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or

116

failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act or the ASX Listing Rules.

(g) Variation of rights

The rights attaching to Shares may only be varied or cancelled by the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders or with the written consent of holders of three quarters of all Shares on issue.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(h) Alteration of Constitution

The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting.
