REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The loss after income tax for the half year ended 31 December 2018 was $603,449 (31 December 2017: profit of $575,301).

DGR Global’s business is resource-project generation and discovery across a range of commodities, including copper, gold, nickel, cobalt, lithium, tin, iron ore, titanium, bauxite, coal, oil and gas. The group focuses on delivering value through the discovery of ore bodies by the application of innovative exploration techniques and reassessment strategies of existing pre-development projects and new greenfields areas. DGR Global is generating and developing several independently funded and managed resource companies in order to progress each of these projects. The Company also maintains its cornerstone investor position in subsidiaries that move to listing on a recognised stock exchange.

The DGR business model has been soundly endorsed by the best performing hedge fund in the world for 2016, with Tribeca Investment Partners providing $10 million in converting note funding to further develop the resources company creation business[1] .

Exploration and Development of Subsidiaries

During the half-year the group was strongly focused on advancing exploration projects within the parent and subsidiary companies. Field reconnaissance programs including mapping, soil, stream and rock sampling, and reverse circulation and diamond core drilling were undertaken.

Significant activities which occurred during the half-year included:

In association with Armour Energy Limited, DGR advanced its 83.18% interest in a highly prospective oil project in the Kanywayaba Block, Uganda[2] .

Albatross Bauxite Pty Ltd (100%)

  • Surrender of the last bauxite EPM following initial exploration results. Two new EPM applications over lithium and caesium pegmatites in Southern Queensland have been granted during the half year.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2018

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 2018 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 15 March 2019. 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 2018 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 2018 and considered together with any public announcement made by DGR Global Limited during the half-year ended 31 December 2018 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations of the ASX listing rules.

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 2018 the Group generated a consolidated loss of $603,449 and incurred operating cash outflows of $535,625. As at 31 December 2018 the Group had cash and cash equivalents of $1,638,085, net current assets of $1,167,820 and net assets of $136,385,384.

Together with the convertible note funding, current related party loans and DGR’s ability to sell down investments in listed entities, the Directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

Comparatives

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

Significant accounting policies

The group has applied the same accounting policies and methods of computation in its interim consolidated financial statements as in its 2018 annual financial statements, except for those that relate to new standards and interpretations effective for the first time for periods beginning on (or after) 1 January 2018, and will be adopted in the 2019 annual financial statements.

The group has adopted AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from 1 July 2018 which did not have any impact on the 31 December 2017 comparative results. In the previous years, the group derived its revenue from providing management services to its affiliated entities. Revenue from providing management services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.

  • (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.

10. Segment Reporting

The Group reports information to the Board of Directors along company lines. That is, the financial position of DGR Global Limited and each of its subsidiary companies is reported discreetly, together with an aggregated group total. Accordingly, each company within the Group that meets or exceeds the relevant threshold tests is separately disclosed below. The financial information of the subsidiaries that do not exceed the thresholds and are therefore not reported separately, are aggregated as Others.

12. Fair Value

Fair value hierarchy

The following table details the consolidated entity’s assets and liabilities, measured or disclosed at fair value, using a three level hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement being:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

  • (a) The following table presents the Group’s assets and liabilities measured and recognised at fair value at 31 December 2018 and 30 June 2018:
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
$ $ $ $
31 December 2018
Financial assets at fair value through OCI 142,587,267 - - 142,587,267

Convertible note receivable - - 11,175,368 11,175,368
Convertible note payable - - 7,799,904 7,799,904

The financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured based on the quoted market prices at 31 December 2018 and 30 June 2018. Convertible note receivables are determined using discounted cash flow analysis. Convertible note payables are based on the binomial tree valuation model. There are no transfers between the fair value hierarchy levels during the period ended 31 December 2018.

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 the Group, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.
