HIGHLIGHTS DURING THE 2015-2016 FINANCIAL YEAR

EdenCrete[TM]

  • Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT)

  • I-20 Interstate Highway field trial, using EdenCrete[TM ] added to GDOT’s 24 hour accelerated concrete repair mix in two trial slabs, was conducted (Augusta, August 2015) .

  • Results were 45.8% improvement in compressive strength, and a 56% reduction in the depth of wear in an abrasion resistance test.

  • Eden received formal approval from the GDOT New Products Evaluation Committee for use of EdenCrete[TM] in GDOT 24 hour accelerated concrete applications and Class B concrete applications and discussions commenced in relation to specifications for the use of 24-Hour Accelerated Concrete/ Class B Concrete.

  • Since the end of the financial year:

    • an inspection of the I-20 field trail slab shows it is showing no visible cracking or significant signs of wear after 11 months of highway wear, whereas the control section is already showing a significant crack developing; and

    • GDOT has advised it proposes to use EdenCrete[TM] in several state funded forthcoming suitable highway slab replacement projects in Georgia.

    • GDOT intends that the requests for tender in these selected projects will specify that EdenCrete[TM] be added to the concrete.

    • These will be the first commercial contracts for EdenCrete[TM] for US highway repair projects.

  • The GDOT field trial of EdenCrete[TM] in Class 1 concrete has been included in a new section of highway that is being tendered and is presently anticipated to take place in 2018 unless this timetable can be accelerated.

  • Commercial order received for use of EdenCrete[TM] in replacing a section of a high strength concrete slab at an industrial site that is subject to extreme wear and abrasion, following an earlier successful field trial at the site (October 2015). This project was completed and since the end of the financial year, a second section of concrete slab has been replaced using concrete with EdenCrete[TM ] added.

  • First commercial EdenCrete[TM] order received for an infrastructure project, for use at a new MARTA bus garage in Atlanta, Georgia and the project was undertaken, achieving the following improvements in performance:

    • Compressive Strength Increase - 38%

    • Split Tensile Strength Increase - 59%Modulus of Elasticity Increase - 24%Abrasion Resistance Increase - 47%Shrinkage Reduction (Improvement) - 9%

  • Trials of EdenCrete[TM] with lower dosage rates of EdenCrete[TM] showed material improvement in performance characteristics of concrete, including a 46% reduction (improvement) in the rate of abrasion using ½ US gallon of EdenCrete[TM] / yard[3] of concrete, which would have added only approximately 3.5% - 4% to the installed cost of the concrete paid by GDOT on the I-20 field trial.

  • Eden completed the testing ASTM C494 S testing of the EdenCrete[TM] enriched concrete which showed:

    • 41% increase in compressive strength at 28 days (ASTM C39);

    • 32% increase in flexural strength at 28 days (ASTM C78);

    • 29% increase in split tensile strength at 28 days (ASTM C496);

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

During the year Eden made significant progress towards achieving its goal of having EdenCrete[TM] , Eden’s carbon nanotube-enriched concrete admixture, become a product that is widely used in the concrete market, particularly the huge US infrastructure market. Further progress was achieved in Eden’s collaborative research projects being conducted with the University of Queensland and Deakin University.

Whilst sales of the Optiblend™ dual fuel system remained slow due to the ongoing low oil prices and the limited oil and gas exploration taking place as a result, nevertheless a total of 24 Optiblend™ dual fuel systems were sold in India and the USA during the year, having an aggregate value of A$1.1 million.

The progress achieved during the year is summarised in the highlights on pages 3 and 4 of this Report.

The following is a more detailed account of this progress.

EDENCRETE[TM] (Eden 100%)

Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT)

GDOT I-20 Field Trials

Two field trials of EdenCrete[TM] enriched concrete were undertaken on Interstate I-20 in Augusta, Georgia for GDOT. The field trials took place in August 2015 and involved the pouring of replacement concrete slabs on the I-20. The concrete used in the slabs included EdenCrete[TM] and this was compared with the results from a second slab that was poured using the same concrete mix but with no added EdenCrete[TM] , giving a basis for comparison of the benefits EdenCrete[TM] delivers ( see Figures 1 and 2 below ).

In the laboratory tests of EdenCrete[TM] concrete from the field trial, at 56 days, where an accelerant was used, EdenCrete[TM] concrete exceeded the performance of the same control mixture (with the accelerant but without EdenCrete[TM] ) by the following percentages:

  • 45.8% improvement in the compressive strength over the control mix; and

  • 56% reduction in the depth of wear of the concrete in an accelerated abrasion trial.

In November 2015 these results were considered by the GDOT New Products Evaluation Committee, which:

  • Approved the use of EdenCrete[TM] in GDOT construction and maintenance projects in both GDOT’s Class 24-Hour accelerated strength concrete mix applications and also its Class B concrete application; and

  • Classified EdenCrete[TM] as “Field Tests” (i.e. to undertake a further Field Test) in the applications of Portland cement concrete pavements (GDOT Specification Section 430 and/or 439) and concrete whitetopping (GDOT Specification Section 453) (replacing the surface of an asphalt pavement with a concrete surface layer). A field trial for this purpose is anticipated will occur in 2018 unless arranged earlier.

Figure 1 2[nd] Field Trial of EdenCrete[TM] On I-20 Figure 2 2[nd] Field Trial of EdenCrete[TM] On I-20

A visual examination, undertaken in July 2016, of the state of repair of the EdenCrete[TM] enriched section of concrete laid on 26 August 2015 as the field trial of EdenCrete[TM] on a troublesome section of the I-20, showed no visible cracking or significant signs of wear after 11 months of highway wear. The control section, laid on 27 August 2015 on the adjoining section of the same lane on I-20, and using the same concrete mix but containing no EdenCrete[TM] , was however, already showing a significant crack developing, 11 months after being laid ( see Figures 3 and 4 below ).

Figures 3. EdenCrete[TM] - No Visible Cracking Figure 4. Control - Visible Crack Developing

The trial section of the I-20 has high water content in the sub-surface beneath the road surface, which often results in a relatively short service life of the concrete roadway surface.

After reviewing these results in July 2016, GDOT concluded that the performance improvements that EdenCrete[TM] brings to the concrete (increased flexural strength and compressive strength) are beneficial in slab replacements, particularly when the substructure may be problematical, which frequently leads to the cracking beginning, as was the case with the I-20 field trial.

GDOT advised that it is in the process of identifying several upcoming, state funded slab replacement projects in which it proposes to specify in the request for tender, that EdenCrete[TM] be used. In accordance with Federal regulations, federally funded projects will still only specify performance characteristics that must be achieved.

By requiring the use of EdenCrete[TM] , GDOT will be able to ensure that EdenCrete[TM] is used in the nominated projects, and will enable it to monitor the results achieved, including where different sub-surface conditions and wear conditions may exist. These projects, if and when awarded, will be the first commercial projects involving the use of EdenCrete[TM] on US highway repair projects.

EdenCrete[TM] used in high strength concrete slab subject to extreme wear and abrasion

During the year Eden received a commercial order for its EdenCrete[TM] concrete admixture to be used to replace several sections of a concrete hard stand area that is subject to very heavy wear and abrasion. The project took place at a major regional maintenance facility in Georgia for a large national US company where very heavy steel components from a national transport fleet are brought for repairs and maintenance.

The concrete at the maintenance facility is exposed to extreme rolling loads, impact loads and abrasive wear ( see Figure 5 below ); and several times each year, under a scheduled maintenance programme, sections of the hard stand area that are severely cracked and require replacement are ripped up and replaced.

This project used the same concrete mix that was approved by Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) in November 2015 for 24-hour maintenance and B Class concrete, but without any set accelerator. It involved replacing three concrete slabs using EdenCrete[TM] , the first and third of which were adjacent to one another in an area over which loaded trucks, fork lifts and front-end loaders frequently travel to access the section of the yard where the replacement parts are stored ( see Figure 5 above ). These sections were excavated as closely to 150mm (6 inches) as possible, but there were sections where it was as deep as 225mm (9 inches) but there was no preparation of the sub-base before the new concrete was poured ( see Figures 6 and 7 below ).

==> picture [224 x 180] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [234 x 179] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 6. Partially poured first slab Figure 7. Completed first slab

To manage the variable depth, which normally requires a flat, compacted sub-base, more EdenCrete[TM] enriched concrete was simply used to fill the deeper sections of the hole instead of spending time and money on sub-base preparation. As a result it was not necessary to order aggregate or compaction equipment to prepare the sub-base, and a little extra concrete was simply added to the concrete truck that delivered the concrete.

The outcome of using EdenCrete[TM] on this project was a 45% reduction in the total costs compared with the budgeted cost of carrying out the same work using a new ultra-high strength mix design. This alternative mix would have involved a 12 inch (300mm) thick concrete slab incorporating half inch (12.5mm) diameter steel rebar, supported by a six inch (150mm) compacted crushed aggregate sub-base, that had been planned to try and achieve a five year service life for the concrete.

The first section was opened and driven on by loaders, less than 24-hours after the last slab was poured. The second slab is to be used as foundation for a large filtration system used in the adjacent fabrication shop where the parts are replaced. No excavation at all was conducted. Additionally, a sidewalk running under it was left in-situ and the slab simply poured over the top ( see Figures 8 and 9 below ). Heavy trucks will be regularly driven onto this slab to change the large filters on the system.

MARTA Brady Mobility Facility Project

During the year, Eden received its first commercial government infrastructure order, which was successfully completed at the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) Brady Mobility Facility in Atlanta.

The state of the art facility will house the administrative functions, operations, and maintenance facilities for a fleet of up to 200 Mobility vehicles (specialized vans and cutaway buses). The EdenCrete[TM] section will be subjected to extreme rolling frictional forces due to the constant wear and abuse of large vehicle tyres when turning on the slab from day to day and will be evaluated over time relative to the rest of the concrete not containing EdenCrete[TM] .

A section of a new concrete hardstand area was installed using EdenCrete[TM] enriched concrete at the new state-ofthe-art bus garage that is being constructed on the site of the existing bus garage (see Figures 10 and 11).

The final area that was selected for the project was larger than originally planned and in consequence, using all the available EdenCrete[TM] admixture that had been supplied by Eden, 17 truck loads of concrete, with EdenCrete[TM] added at a dosage rate equal to 3 gallons per cubic yards of concrete, were used to construct the section of the Brady facility.

At this dosage rate, which was lower than had originally been planned due to the increased volume of concrete that was required, the EdenCrete[TM] is still anticipated to at least double the service life of the concrete by enhancing the concrete’s resistance to abrasive wear, increasing its flexural strength and also its durability due to reduced permeability.

==> picture [226 x 164] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 10. Brady Mobility Facility Figure 11. EdenCrete[TM] enriched slab being installed

The test results, conducted after concrete had cured for 28 days, from two separate independent laboratories of the concrete used in the MARTA Brady Mobility Facility Trial showed EdenCrete[TM] delivered the following improvements:

First Laboratory Second Laboratory
Compressive Strength Increase -
25%
Compressive Strength Increase -
38%
Split Tensile Strength Increase -
59%
Modulus of Elasticity Increase -
24%
Abrasion Resistance Increase -
47%
Shrinkage Reduction (Improvement) -
9%

Following receipt of these test results, discussions with MARTA commenced in relation to possible further projects for EdenCrete[TM] in various specific applications at some, as yet undecided, time in the future.

Trials of EdenCrete[TM] using Lower Dosage Rates of EdenCrete[TM]

Trials conducted during the year showed material improvement in all performance characteristics of concrete that were tested using lower dosage rates of EdenCrete[TM]

These results included a 46% reduction (improvement) in the rate of abrasion using ½ US gallon of EdenCrete[TM] / yard[3] of concrete, which would have added only approx. 3.5% - 4% to the installed cost of the concrete paid by GDOT on the I-20 field trial.

1 US gallon (3.8 litres) of EdenCrete[TM] / yard[3] of concrete produced a 55% reduction (improvement) in the depth of wear, which would have added approximately 7% - 8% to the installed cost of concrete in the I-20 field trial.

These new results make a very compelling economic case for the future widespread use of EdenCrete[TM] for high abrasion applications such as highways, bridge decks, warehouse floors, hard-stand areas and other surfaces that are subject to high abrasive wear. The results achieved EdenCrete[TM ] are shown in Figures 12 and 13 below.

ASTM C494 S TESTING

During the year Eden undertook testing in accordance with the American Standards for Testing and Materials ASTM C494, Type S Test program (the umbrella standard to compare the performance of specialty admixtures) of EdenCrete[TM] .

The results achieved to date showed:

  • 41% increase in compressive strength at both 28 and 56 days (ASTM C39);

  • 32% increase in flexural strength at 28 days (ASTM C78);

  • 29% increase in split tensile strength at 28 days and 22% at 56 days (ASTM C496);

  • 59% increase in abrasion resistance at 90 days and 56% at 56 days (ASTM C779 Proc C);

  • 61% reduction in ultimate shrinkage at 35 days (ASTM C105);

  • 3 minute delay in Time of Set (ASTM C403); and

  • 9.5% increase in freeze / thaw resistance at 180 days (from 88 to 96.4) (ASTM C666).

Only the 365 day compressive strength testing, due on 1[st] December 2016, remains to be completed. These results provide a standard basis for comparing the performance benefits delivered by specialty admixtures. Industry experts advise that a 5% improvement in performance is a material improvement.

Expansion of Eden’s Colorado based EdenCrete[TM ] Production Capability

During the year, the expansion of the production capability of Eden’s Colorado based EdenCrete[TM] production facility from its present level of approximately 108,000 gallons per annum of EdenCrete[TM ] to a target of between approximately 2 million - 2.4 million gallons (7.6 - 9.1 million litres) per annum commenced and is progressing on schedule.

In order to achieve this scale-up, the entire plant is being expanded. The design of all items is completed, and most of the items have been ordered or are currently under construction. These include the following:

  • The equipment to produce the quantity of catalyst required for production of the necessary carbon nanotubes;

  • Two new reactors to manufacture the carbon nanotubes;

  • All the necessary processing and mixing equipment; and

  • Tanks and dispensing equipment for storage and delivery to road tankers of the 40,000 gallons (151,000 litres) of finished product per week

Additionally alterations to the layout within the building and its surrounds were commenced and are underway to accommodate the new equipment. This includes disposing of now redundant equipment such as the original genset that was first used in the development of Eden’s OptiBlend dual fuel system, to create sufficient area for the EdenCrete[TM] expansion.

The entire up-scaling is scheduled to be completed and operational by the early in 2017, and at present the project is progressing on-time. As these premises in Colorado have only been occupied by Eden as a lessee, steps are currently underway for Eden to purchase the freehold so that it will have full, long term control over this important part of Eden’s operation, which is intended to remain Eden’s long term technology base, even after the proposed Georgia production facility is established.

Proposed Georgia EdenCrete[TM] Production Facility

During the year Eden resolved to establish its future large scale global EdenCreteTM production facility in Augusta, Georgia over the next seven years at an estimated cost of US$67 million, thereby creating approximately 250 jobs.

The plant is to be built on a large tract of suitable industrial land in Augusta and will have capacity for very large scale future expansion. The land is being provided by the Augusta Economic Development Authority under a conditional grant as part of a financial incentive package detailed below.

The site has very convenient road and rail access to the entire North American market, as well as easy access to shipping for the global market via the Port of Savannah. The site adjoins the railway system linking it to the entire North American rail network. It is also located within 12 kilometres of the interconnected US Interstate Highway network giving it very efficient road access to North America. The Port of Savannah, the third largest port (by volume) in the US for containerised freight, is 160 kilometres away by both road and rail, and provides efficient shipping access via the Atlantic to South America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and also via the Panama Canal to the rest of the global market.

The initial building plant (Phase 1) will be developed in four stages to a planned aggregate annual production capacity of a planned 50 million gallons (189 million litres) of EdenCreteTM concrete admixture. The site has sufficient area to accommodate up to 10 of these buildings as future demand grows (see Figure 14 below). Figure 14 Schematic of proposed Georgia Production facility

State of Georgia Incentive Package

The State of Georgia (through the Georgia Department of Economic Development (GDEcD”)) and the Augusta Economic Development Authority (“AEDA”) collectively agreed to provide a generous financial assistance and incentives package estimated to be worth up to US$24.76 million over the next 20 years to assist Eden establish its proposed production facility in Georgia.

The incentives package, which is dependent on the new plant being established, will deliver total cost savings and cost avoidance benefits of US $24.76 million, with:

  • US$11.59 Million to be provided by State of Georgia

  • US$13.17 Million to be provided by AEDA

ASX Code: EDE

Incentive Package Details

THE details of the financial assistance and incentives package for new plant, which are being provided against the commitment to build the plant, include the following:

A conditional grant of 45 hectares (112 acres) of industrial land in the Augusta Industrial Park
(worth US$2.8M) with an option over a further 12.75 ha (31.5 acres) for future expansion (see
Figure 14 above);
Financial assistance through the AEDA Industrial Revenue Bond programme that will deliver
approximately US$5.8M of savings in local property taxes over 20 years;
AEDA will spend US$2.5m establishing two lane road access to site, US$100,000 towards
site preparation costs and US$400,000 towards securing rail access to the site,
GDEcD will contribute US$500,000 to the cost of establishing the road, training and hiring
assistance,
Augusta Utilities to spend US$1.57M to install water and waste water lines to site; and
Various other State and AEDA tax benefits including:
- State Job Tax Credits
  • Various County tax exemptions from Property Tax, Inventory Tax, and Freeport Exemption; and - State Sales Tax and Use Tax exemptions.

Apart from evidencing the strong support that the Government of Georgia is prepared to provide to incoming industry, this generous assistance package will significantly reduce both the up-front capital costs and the operational set-up costs associated with establishing the large scale manufacturing operation in Georgia, and also help significantly defray operating costs for up to 20 years. Further, it will deliver a significant reduction in both the capital and operating costs, and greatly enhance the overall attractiveness of the project to both future investors and lenders.

EdenCrete Sales Team

Eden commenced building a specialist US EdenCrete[TM] sales force. The sales team is intended will comprise a team of people who each have a minimum of approximately 10 years’ experience in successfully selling concrete admixtures in the US with top admixture suppliers. To date 5 very experienced and highly qualified staff, who collectively have 109 years’ experience successfully selling concrete admixtures in well over half of continental USA, have been engaged.

Western Region Sales

Eden engaged its western region sales manager, who is based in California where he has commenced marketing and selling EdenCrete[TM] to potential customers. Having previously had a successful career as sales manager with a major admixture supplier, responsible for more than 10 states in the western region of the US, he has been appointed by Eden as the western region sales manager. Three further western region sales people have also been appointed. Further possible appointments are being discussed.

Eastern Region Sales

The sales manager for the eastern region of the US, a highly experienced person based in New Jersey, has also been appointed and commences work in August. Further possible appointments are being discussed.

Longer Term Plans

The intention is to progressively build the sales team to a total of approximately 8-10 sales people whose collective task will be to cover the US market, with the intention of selling all, or as much as possible, of the EdenCrete[TM] that Eden will be able produce in 2017 from its expanded Colorado production facility, which is targeted at approximately 2-2.4 million gallons of EdenCrete[TM] per year. Initially the task is to get trials arranged with potential customers. In the longer term, it is intended to further expand the sales team both in the US and also into the global arena as the market expands to absorb the production increases that are planned to result from the establishment of Eden’s proposed large scale, global production facility in Augusta, Georgia.

Deakin University- Research - High Strength concrete needing little reinforcing steel

During the year Eden finalised its agreement with Deakin University (“Deakin”) to proceed with a collaborative Australian Research Council (“ARC”) Linkage Grant research project into ultra-high strength carbon nanotube enriched concrete requiring little or even no reinforcing steel. The ARC grant, funded by the Commonwealth of Australia, which was initially awarded to Eden and Monash University in Melbourne, will provide a total of A$300,000 over the three year life of the research project.

ASX Code: EDE

Page 12 of 44

EDEN ENERGY LIMITED ABN 58 109 200 900 and Controlled Entities

The Principal Researcher named in the application, Dr Frank Collins, who was formerly Associate Professor and Head of Structures Department at the Civil Engineering Department at Monash University, was appointed as Professor of Infrastructure Engineering, at Deakin University’s Institute for Frontier Materials in Melbourne during 2015. With the agreement and co-operation of Monash University, the project was transferred to Deakin University.

This research could potentially lead to both the improvement of EdenCrete[TM] and the development of ultra-high strength concrete that requires little or no steel re-enforcing. Quite apart from the enormous environmental and financial implications, such an outcome would have major implications for the global construction industry. Eden has already made significant advances with EdenCrete[TM] towards achieving this goal, and this new project should assist in accelerating this progress.

EDENPLAST[TM] / CNT ENRICHED POLYMERS AND PLASTICS

During the year, the collaborative research project, partially funded by the Australian Research Council (“ARC”) (to the extent of A$255,000) between Eden and the University of Queensland into carbon nanotubes in plastics, has achieved very encouraging preliminary results, showing:

  • Excellent combination of high modulus (stiffness) and outstanding ductility (elongation-at-break) achieved for Nylon containing less than 1% Eden’s CNTs compared to commercial grades of nano Nylon 6.

  • Superior ductility with comparable tensile strength (more than 75 MPa, 50% Relative Humidity (“RH”) conditions) compared to super-tough commercial Nylons containing higher levels (4wt%) of nanoclays.

  • Higher tensile strength than comparable Nylon based materials with similar ductility.

  • Excellent dispersion of the Eden’s CNTs in EdenPlast[TM] .

  • Visual clarity and transparency suggests suitability for a super-tough-film grade.

  • The relatively low-cost processing method of EdenPlast[TM] could potentially result in production of costeffective, high-stiffness and/or high-toughness grades of nano Nylon 6.

  • Possible suitable future markets for EdenPlast[TM] , indicated by the results to date, are the automotive and packaging markets.

Whilst fundamental studies (X-ray defraction, rheology, thermal and electrical analysis) and further standard characterization (ASTM, ISO) require to be carried out (impact, flexural, tensile, dynamical, fatigue) before possible commercialisation could be considered, the preliminary results from extruded filaments are considered very encouraging.

OPTIBLEND™ DUAL FUEL SYSTEM

US OptiBlend™ Progress

Eden Innovations LLC, a wholly owned US subsidiary of Eden, received purchase orders for fifteen OptiBlend[TM] dual fuel systems during the year.

Two orders, for a total of twelve (of the fourteen) OptiBlend[TM] systems in the US for a combined value of US$490,000, were received from a division of Cummins Inc. and with whom Eden has collaborated over the past several years to adapt the OptiBlend[TM] systems for use in Cummins power modules for the drilling industry.

The global market for dual fuel systems has been at a virtual standstill for the past 12 months as a result of the steep drop in world oil prices, the consequential drastic slowdown in oil and gas exploration and the reduced difference in price between diesel fuel and natural gas. Although the global price of oil remains low, which from market reports appears likely to continue at least for the short to medium term, nevertheless these sales indicate some level of renewed interest from the sector and may signal a slight upturn in the level of exploration activity.

Eden Innovations is continuing to work on trying to establish a number of partnerships to increase its bi/dual fuel offerings. These proposed partnerships include work with various OEMs to become their default supplier and/or supplier of private labelled OptiBlend™ technology.

India Optiblend™ Progress

During the year, Eden Energy (India) Pvt Ltd (“Eden (India)”), Eden’s wholly owned Indian subsidiary, won a tender to supply to Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (“ONGC”) of India, with eight OptiBlend[TM] dual fuel kits for use on diesel powered generator sets (“gensets”) used on drilling rigs it operates in India. The value of the contract is for the Australian dollar equivalent of over A$240,000. This is the first time that Eden (India) has secured a contract to supply ONGC, and is an encouraging development.

India is presently expanding its early stage domestic exploration for shale oil and gas, and ONGC is a significant participant in this exploration programme, Eden (India) is hopeful of further success in this emerging Indian market.

CORPORATE

Successful rights issue raising A$4.86 million

Eden raised A$4.86 million through an almost fully subscribed rights issue to existing shareholders in January 2016.

Successful A$10.35 million capital raising to fund Colorado expansion and preliminary expenses in Georgia

Eden raised A$10.35 million additional capital through the placement to two US investment funds of 45 million fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of A$0.23 per share together with 22.5 million free options, exercisable at A$0.31 at any time before 11.59pm on 19 May 2019.

The funds raised were broadly intended to be used as follows:

  • Approximately US$2million – $2.5 million to fund the completion, by early 2017, of the expansion of the current EdenCrete[TM] production facility in Colorado, to a targeted annual output of approximately 2-2.4 million gallons; and

  • Approximately US$2.5 million - $3 million to fund the Eden Group’s ongoing working capital requirements, and

The balance will be applied towards the initial expenses for site works, design and engineering for the first stage of the proposed large scale EdenCrete[TM] production facility to be built in Augusta, Georgia and which is targeted to be in production early in 2019 with a proposed initial annual output from its first production line of approximately 12.5 million gallons of EdenCrete[TM] .

UK Gas Project Sale

On 24 February 2016, Eden sold its 100% owned UK subsidiary that held all its UK gas assets, to the parent of its UK Joint Venture partners. The consideration was an earn-out (commencing at 1% of gross sale proceeds from all hydrocarbon sales from the UK licences (PEDLs) in which Eden’s subsidiary held a 50% interest, and reducing to 0.5%), in connection with any hydrocarbon sales made in the period expiring on the 20th anniversary of completion. There is no cap placed on the maximum value of the amount that Eden can receive under the earn-out.

Eden has no further financial commitments on this project, but can still share in the potential upside from hydrocarbon sales, and focus its efforts on its EdenCrete[TM] and OptiBlend[TM] projects.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Eden Energy Limited, and for the executives receiving the highest remuneration.

Remuneration policy

The remuneration policy of Eden Energy Limited has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the consolidated Group’s financial results. The board of Eden Energy Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the consolidated group, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.

The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the economic entity is as follows:

  • All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, fringe benefits and options.

Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements.

The executive directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently 9.5%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals, however, have chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation.

All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Shares issued to directors and executives are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the director or executive. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology. The Group does not have a policy on directors hedging their shares.

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the consolidated group. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and are able to participate in the employee option plan.

Performance-based remuneration

No performance based remuneration was paid during the year.

Key Management Personnel Remuneration Policy

The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration of management for the Group is as follows:

The remuneration structure for key management personnel is based on a number of factors, including length of service, particular experience of the individual concerned, and overall performance of the Company. The contracts for service between the Company and key management personnel are on a continuing basis, the terms of which are not expected to change in the immediate future. Upon retirement key management personnel are paid employee benefit entitlements accrued to date of retirement. Any options not exercised before or on the date of termination lapse.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 . The financial report of Eden Energy Ltd and controlled entities complies with all International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in their entirety.

The financial report covers the consolidated group of Eden Energy Ltd and controlled entities as at and for the year ended 30 June 2016. Eden Energy Ltd is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Group is a for-profit entity and primarily is involved in green energy technology.

The financial report was authorised for issue on 31 August 2016 by the Board of Directors.

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the consolidated group in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

Basis of Preparation

The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all years presented.

Reporting Basis and Conventions

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied. These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Parent’s functional currency. The subsidiaries’ functional currencies are USD, GBP and INR.

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities, the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

Accounting Policies

a. Principles of Consolidation

A controlled entity is any entity Eden Energy Ltd is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 16 to the financial statements. All controlled entities have a June financial year-end.

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the parent entity.

b. Income Tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. 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 income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

Eden Energy Ltd, Adamo Energy Ltd and Eden Energy Holdings Pty Ltd, its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries, have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The Group notified the Australian Tax Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July 2005. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated group. The R&D tax rebate is recognised as income tax benefit upon receipt.

c. Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Costs are assigned on the basis of first-in, first-out.

d. Segment reporting

Segment results that are reported to the Group’s board of directors (the chief operating decision maker) include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

e. Employee Benefits

Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance 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, plus related on-costs.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

f. Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are initially recognised at acquisition cost or manufacturing cost, including any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Group’s management.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount of 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.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

Class of Fixed Asset

Depreciation Rate

Plant and equipment 15 – 50% straight line

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

g. Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure

Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward where the right to tenure is current and to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.

h. Assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held-for-sale if it is highly probable that they will be recovered through sale rather than continuing use.

Immediately before classification as held-for-sale, the assets are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s other accounting policies. Thereafter generally the assets are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Impairment losses on initial classification as held-for-sale and subsequent gains or losses on remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss.

i. Financial Instruments

Recognition

Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated as such or that are not classified in any of the other categories. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation.

Fair value

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

  • i. Financial Instruments continued

Impairment

At each reporting date, the group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an asset is impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.

j. Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

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

  • k. Intangibles

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.

Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual property, which includes trademarks and engineering knowledge, is included in the financial statements at cost, being their fair value on acquisition.

Intellectual property and trademarks are only amortised or written down where the useful lives are limited or impaired by specific circumstances, in such cases amortisation is charged on a straight line basis over their useful lives and write downs are charged fully when incurred. The directors have assessed the useful life of the intellectual property and have determined that it has a finite useful life of 10 to 20 years. The intellectual property is amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

Intellectual property is amortised over 10-20 years in line with its useful life.

  • l. Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the group’s entities 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.

Transaction 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. Nonmonetary 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 the income statement.

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 that reporting date;

  • income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and

  • 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 balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed. Intercompany loans are treated as investments for foreign currency translation purposes.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

m. Equity-settled compensation

The group operates a number of share-based compensation plans. These include both a share option arrangement and an employee share scheme. The bonus element over the exercise price of the employee services rendered in exchange for the grant of shares and options is recognised as an expense in the income statement. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the shares of the options granted.

n. Comparative Figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

o. Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity.

  • p. New accounting standards and interpretations

A number of new and revised standards became effective for the first time to annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2015. The more significant standard is AASB 2015-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Financial Reporting Requirements for Australian Groups with a Foreign Parent, which amends AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures.

The adoption of this amendment has not had a material impact on the Group.

  • q. New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted

A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2016, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report 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 group.

Key Estimates — Impairment

The group assesses impairment of assets held for sale and intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the group that may lead to impairment of assets. At the date of this report the Group has sufficient reason to believe that no impairment triggers exist for intangible assets.

There is a significant risk of actual outcomes being different from those forecasted due to changes in economic or market conditions and events.

Key Estimates — Share-based payment transactions

The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity settled transactions with suppliers by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments as at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a Black-Scholes model. Refer to Note 27 for the inputs to the Black-Scholes model.

Deferred tax assets have not been brought to account as it is not probable within the immediate future that tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised. The benefit of the tax losses will only be obtained if the Group complies with conditions imposed by the relevant tax legislation.

On 24 February 2016 the sale of Adamo Energy (UK) Ltd, the subsidiary company which holds the licences, was completed for £1.00 and an earn out arrangement based on a percentage of petroleum sales on the PEDL sold. This resulted in a loss of $5,020 before tax, primarily due to related selling costs.

NOTE 29: EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

There were no material events occurring after the reporting date.

NOTE 30: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

a. Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The main risks the company is exposed to through its financial instruments are liquidity risk and credit risk.

  • i. Liquidity Risk

The remaining contractual maturities of the Group financial liabilities are:

12 months or less
1 year or more

  • ii. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the company. The company has adopted a policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.

The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements.

The company does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the company.

  • iii. Foreign currency risk

The Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies arising from the sale and purchase of goods and services in currencies other than the group’s measurement currency. At 30 June 2016, the effect on the loss and equity as a result of a 10% increase in the exchange rates, with all other variables remaining constant would be an decrease in loss by $717,000 (2015: $140,000) and an increase in equity by $717,000 (2015: $140,000).

  • iv. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The group’s minimal exposure to interest rate risk, the only asset / liability affected by changes in market interest rates is Cash and cash equivalents.

b. Financial Instruments

  • i. Net Fair Values

The aggregate net fair values of:

  • Financial assets and financial liabilities, at the balance date, are approximated by their carrying values.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Eden Energy Ltd

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Eden Energy Ltd, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2016, and 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 year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies, other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors’ responsibility for the financial report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 . This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In Note 1, the directors also state that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

  • (ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

  • (b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.
