CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Shareholders
On behalf of the Board of Emergent Resources Limited ( Emergent or the Company ) I am pleased to present the Company’s 2016 Annual Report.
During the financial year the Board continued to assess and evaluate opportunities across a wide range of sectors including minerals resources, information technology, agribusiness and biotechnology. In this regard, the Company has a particular, but not exclusive, focus on opportunities in Asia given the strong support for this new direction of the Company’s cornerstone Chinese investors.
In addition to the strength of its asset base and technical expertise, the Company’s cash position remains very strong.
The Board considers this a very exciting time for the Company and is looking forward to growing the Company through investment and acquisition.
Thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely

Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
Note 1 Summary of significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial report includes financial statements for Emergent Resources Limited as a single entity (“Company”).
(a) Basis of preparation
This general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Australian Accounting Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest dollar.
The financial report of the Company was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of Directors on 15 September 2016.
Statement of Compliance
The financial report of Emergent Resources Limited complies with Australian Accounting Standards in their entirety. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in their entirety.
Reporting basis and conventions
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, and on an accrual basis.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AIFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in note 3.
(b) Segment reporting
Operating segments are identified and segment information disclosed, where appropriate, on the basis of internal reports reviewed by the Company’s Board of Directors, being the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker, as defined by AASB 8.
(c) Revenue recognition and receivables
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, allowances and amounts collectable on behalf of third parties.
Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis and is recognised as it accrues.
18
Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622
Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
(d) Income tax
The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to the temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary timing differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantially enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to those timing differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.
(e) Leases
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622
Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
(f) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses at each balance date whether a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired.
Financial assets carried at amortised cost
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). The carrying amount of the asset is reduced either directly or through use of an allowance account. The amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss.
The Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If it is determined that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, the asset is included in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and that group of financial assets is collectively assessed for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date.
Financial assets carried at cost
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on an unquoted equity instrument that is not carried at fair value (because its fair value cannot be reliably measured), or on a derivative asset that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of such an unquoted equity instrument, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss shall not be reversed in subsequent periods.
(g) Cash and cash equivalents
For cash flow statement presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622
Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
(h) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets.
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 Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight line and written down value methods to allocate their cost, net of residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Field equipment 5 - 33.3% Office equipment 5 - 50% Motor Vehicles 10 - 25%
The asset’s residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
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 (note 1(f)). Gains and losses on disposal are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in profit or loss.
(i) Mineral exploration and evaluation expenditure
Mineral exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are carried forward only if they relate to an area of interest for which rights of tenure are current and in respect of which:
such costs are expected to be recouped through the successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively by its sale; or
exploration and/or evaluation activities in the area have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and active or significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.
• In the event that an area of interest is abandoned or if the Directors consider the expenditure to be of reduced value, accumulated costs carried forward are written off in the year in which that assessment is made. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
• Immediate restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs necessitated by exploration and evaluation activities are expensed as incurred and treated as exploration and evaluation expenditure. Exploration activities resulting in future obligations in respect of restoration costs result in a provision to be made by capitalising the estimated costs, on a discounted cash basis, of restoration and depreciating over the useful life of the asset. The unwinding of the effect of the discounting on the provision is recorded as a finance cost in profit or loss.
(j) Joint Arrangements
A joint arrangement in which the Company has direct rights to the underlying assets and obligations for underlying liabilities is classified as a joint operation.
Interests in joint operations are accounted for by recognising the Company’s assets (included its share of any assets held jointly), its liabilities (including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly) and its share of the expenses (including its share of any expenses incurred jointly).
21
Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622
Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
(k) Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities, at amortised cost, for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and usually paid within the payment terms negotiated with the creditor.
(l) Employee benefits
Wages, salaries and annual leave.
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Long service leave.
The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future salaries, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Share based payments.
Share based compensation payments are made available to Directors and employees.
The fair value of options granted is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options.
The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free rate for the term of the option.
The fair value of the options granted is adjusted to reflect market vesting conditions. Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. At each balance sheet date, the entity revises its estimate of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. The employee benefit expense recognised each period takes into account the most recent estimate.
Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital and the proceeds received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are credited to share capital.
(m) Issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
22
Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622
Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
(n) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(o) Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses, assets commitments and contingencies are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as a part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the balance sheet.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flow.
(p) Comparative figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
(q) Financial instruments
Recognition
When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year-end.
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date, i.e. the date that the Company commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets under contracts that require delivery of the assets within the period established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets classified as held for trading are included in the category ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on investments held for trading are recognised in profit or loss.
23
Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622
Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
(q) Financial instruments (continued)
Held-to-maturity investments
Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments included to be held for an undefined period are not included in this classification. Investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity, such as bonds, are subsequently measured at amortised cost. This cost is computed as the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between the initially recognised amount and the maturity amount. This calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums and discounts. For investments carried at amortised cost, gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
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.
(r) Fair value estimation
A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods:
Investments in equity and debt securities
The fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held to maturity investments and available for sale financial assets is determined by reference to their quoted bid price at the reporting date. The fair value of held to maturity investments is determined for disclosure purposes only. For investments with no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include using recent arm’s length market transactions, reference to the current market value of another instrument that is substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models.
Trade and other receivables
The fair value of trade and other receivables is measured at their fair value at the reporting date.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
(s) Adoption of new and revised standards
In the year ended 30 June 2016, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company’s operations and effective for the current annual reporting period.
A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period, however, the Company did not have to change its accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting these standards. Information on these new standards which are relevant to the Company is presented below.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
IFRS 9, published in July 2014, replaces the existing guidance in IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement . IFRS 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and new general hedge accounting requirements. It also carries forward the guidance on recognition and de-recognition of financial instruments from IAS 39.
IFRS 9 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January, 2018, with early adoption permitted.
The entity is yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the impact of IFRS9. However, based on the entity’s preliminary assessment, the Standard is not expected to have a material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements when it is first adopted for the year ending 30 June2019.
IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much, and when revenue is recognised. It replaces exiting revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 Revenue , IAS 11 Construction Contracts , and IFRC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes .
IFRS 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted.
The entity is yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the impact of AASB15. However, based on the entity’s preliminary assessment, the Standard is not expected to have a material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements when it is first adopted for the year ending 30 June2019.
Note 2 Financial risk management
The Company has exposure to a variety of risks arising from its use of financial instruments. This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to the specific risks, and the policies and processes for measuring and managing those risks. The Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the risk management framework and has adopted a Risk Management Policy.
(a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from transactions with customers and investments.
Trade and other receivables
The Company has no investments and the nature of the business activity of the Company does not result in trading receivables. The receivables that the Company does experience through its normal course of business are short term and the risk of recovery of no recovery of receivables is considered to be negligible.

Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622
Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
Cash deposits
Note 2 Financial risk management (continued)
(a) Credit risk continued
The Company’s bankers are ANZ Limited and Westpac Banking Corporation and, at balance date, all operating accounts and funds held on deposit are with these banks. The Directors believe any risk associated with the use of these banks is addressed through the use of an AA- rated bank as the primary banker. Except for this matter the Company currently has no significant concentrations of credit risk.
(b) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The Company manages its liquidity risk by monitoring its cash reserves and forecast spending. Management is cognisant of the future demands for liquid finance resources to finance the Company’s current and future operations, and consideration is given to the liquid assets available to the Company before commitment is made to future expenditure or investment. If the Company does not raise capital, it can continue as a going concern by reducing planned but not committed expenditure until funding is available or joint venture arrangements can be entered into.
(c) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising any return.
Interest rate risk
The Company has significant cash assets which may be susceptible to fluctuations in changes in interest rates. Whilst the Company requires the cash assets to be sufficiently liquid to cover any planned or unforeseen future expenditure, which prevents the cash assets being committed to long term fixed interest arrangements; the Company does mitigate potential interest rate risk by entering into short to medium term fixed interest investments.
Other market risks
The Company does not have any direct contact with foreign exchange or equity risks other than their effect on the general economy.
(d) Capital management
The Board of Directors monitors capital expenditure and cash flows as mentioned in (b). The Company’s capital structure may be amended by the issue of equity securities or by entering in to other finance arrangements as necessary to fund the Company’s operations and to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s current capital structure has been comprised entirely of equity based securities since its incorporation, and has no externally imposed capital requirements to which it is subject to, other than the requirements of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules. There has been no material change to the composition of the Company’s capital in this or prior reporting periods.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2016
Note 3 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Accounting for capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure
The Company’s accounting policy is stated at Note 1(i). There is some subjectivity involved in the carrying forward as capitalised or writing off to the income statement exploration and evaluation expenditure, however the Board and management give due consideration to areas of interest on a regular basis and are confident that decisions to either write off or carry forward such expenditure reflect fairly the prevailing situation. In the year ended 30 June 2016 an amount of $1,270,325 has been written off (2015: $nil).
Impairment
The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent upon a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale. Factors that could impact future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices.
To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which the determination is made.
In addition, exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised if activities in an area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. To the extent it is determined in the future that this capitalised expenditure should be written off, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which the determination is made.
The Company assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events specific to the Company that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined.
In the year ended 30 June 2016 an amount of $269,980 (2015: $3,162,730) has been impaired. (Note 11).

Note 11 Non-current assets – Capitalised mineral exploration and evaluation expenditure
The recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest.
During the 2016 financial year it was decided by the Board and management to provide impairment on all of its capitalised exploration projects. The basis for impairment was comparable peer transactions within the past 6 months together with comparable peer value based on enterprise value per resource tonne of iron ore. This resulted in an impairment charge totalling $269,980 (2015: $3,162,730).
Capitalised exploration expenditure of $1,270,325 relating to the Beyondie Tenement was written off upon surrender on 13 November 2015.

Joint arrangement agreements have been entered into with third parties. Details of these agreements are disclosed below.
Assets employed by these joint ventures and the Company’s expenditure in respect of them is brought to account initially as capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure until a formal joint venture agreement is entered into.

The Company has the following joint ventures which are classed as joint operations:
| Joint Venture Project | Percentage Interest | Principal Exploration Activities |
|---|---|---|
| Beyondie Iron | 80% (2015: 80%) De Grey Mining Limited | Iron Ore, Vanadium, Manganese |
Under an agreement entered into with De Grey Mining Limited on 1 May 2008, Emergent Resources Limited has rights to 80% of the iron ore, vanadium and manganese on EL52/1806 and EL52/2215. The Company will sole fund the tenements until it makes a decision to mine. De Grey Mining Limited may then contribute on its 20% interest basis or convert to a 2% net smelter royalty.
The Company’s interest in exploration expenditure in the above mentioned Joint Arrangement is as follows:
