The company also maintains its cornerstone investor position in subsidiaries that move to listing on a recognised stock exchange.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2016

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Corporate information

The financial report of DGR Global Limited and its controlled entities (the “Group”) for the half year ended 31 December 2016 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 15 March 2017. DGR Global Limited is a public company limited by shares that is incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

Basis of preparation of half-year financial statements

This general purpose financial report for the half-year ended 31 December 2016 has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001 .

The half-year financial report does not include all notes of the type normally included within the annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the consolidated entity as the full financial report.

It is recommended that the half-year financial report be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2016 and considered together with any public announcement made by DGR Global Limited during the half-year ended 31 December 2016 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations of the ASX listing rules.

The accounting policies and methods of computation are the same as those adopted in the most recent annual financial report, with the exception of convertible note receivables:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Investments in financial assets with embedded derivatives, such as convertible note receivables, as recognised at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are recognised in profit or loss within other income or other expenses. Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is included in profit or loss.

Going concern

The half-year report has been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

For the period ended 31 December 2016 the group generated a consolidated profit of $4,874,777 and incurred operating cash outflows of $1,420,531. As at 31 December 2016 the group had cash and cash equivalents of $712,482, net current liabilities of $795,435 and net assets of $99,351,125.

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Group being able to manage its liquidity requirements by taking some or all of the following actions:

  1. Raising additional capital or securing other forms of financing, as and when necessary to meet the levels of expenditure required for the Group and to meet the Group’s working capital requirements;

  2. Collecting the loans to related parties or converting a proportion of the loans to equity;

  3. Realisation of listed shares;

  4. Successful exploration and subsequent exploitation of the Group’s tenements and investments;

  5. Reducing its working capital expenditure; and

  6. Disposing of non-core assets.

These conditions give rise to a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt over the Groups ability to continue as a going concern.

Notwithstanding the above, the Directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis after having regard to the Group’s ability to sell its interest in its listed shares to support the Group’s short term funding needs.

Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might be required should the Group not be able to achieve the matters set out above and thus be able to continue as a going concern.

Comparatives

When required by Accounting Standards, comparatives have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current half-year.

In order to recoup carried forward losses in future periods, either the Continuity of Ownership Test (COT) or Same Business Test must be passed. The majority of losses are carried forward at 31 December 2016 under COT.

Deferred tax assets which have not been recognised as an asset, will only be obtained if:

  • (i) the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the losses to be realised;

  • (ii) the Company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the law; and

  • (iii) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the losses.

12. Financial Instruments

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts principally due to their short-term nature or the fact that they are measured and recognised at fair value.

To provide an indication about the reliability of inputs used in determining fair value, the group classifies its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

The following table presents the Group’s financial assets and liabilities measured and recognised at fair value at 31 December 2016 and 30 June 2016 on a recurring basis.

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
$ $ $ $
31 December 2016
Financial assets at fair value through OCI 87,191,674 - - 87,191,674
Convertible notes - - 9,767,500 9,767,500
Investments accounted for using the equity method 5,703,800 - - 5,703,800
30 June 2016
Financial assets at fair value through OCI 10,789,985 - - 10,789,985
Investments accounted for usingthe equitymethod 9,340,496 - - 9,340,496

Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted (unadjusted) market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted marked price used for available for sale financial asset held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on an observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

There are $11,271,072 amount of investments accounted for using the equity method that are carried at amortised cost under the equity accounting method. These investments were previously at fair value under level 1. Following an increase in the market price of the shares previous impairments have been reversed and the carrying value represents the maximum permitted under equity accounting. If these investments were continued to be carried at fair value, the value would be $15,472,946.

The convertible notes in level 3 are valued based using the present value of the expected cash inflows from the host debt and the value of the conversion option using an option pricing model. These valuation techniques use unobservable inputs. Specifically the option pricing model that incorporates the share price at the balance date, exercise price, life, volatility and risk free rate. An increase in the share price, life, volatility or risk free rate will result in an increase in the fair value of the asset. The notes were issued on 15 December 2016 and there was no material movement in fair value at 31 December 2016.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of DGR Global Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of DGR Global Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a statement of accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

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

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2016 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of DGR Global Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. 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 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.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of DGR Global Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of DGR Global Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2016 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.

Emphasis of matter – Material uncertainty relating to going concern

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the consolidated entity may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
