Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2017

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Corporate Information

Public Holdings (Australia) Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

Basis of Preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The Company is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise.

Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs.

a) Financial Instruments

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the Company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset. Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs.

Classification and subsequent measurement Receivables

Other receivables include amounts due for services performed in the ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. Other receivables arise due to contractual obligations or settlement with third parties.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial liability is derecognised.

b) Revenue and Other Income

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method.

c) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues (with the exception of interest), expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

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 ATO is included with other receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.

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 ATO are presented as operating cash flows and included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2017

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont'd)

d) Going Concern:

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuation of normal business operations and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Directors have considered and noted the following with regard to the ability at the Company to continue as a going concern:

The Company incurred a net loss of $453,765 for the year ended 31 December 2017 which included expenses of $267,527 associated with the proposed acquisition of gold projects and re-listing.

Additional funding of $290,000 (excluding capital raising costs) was raised during December 2017 in the form of convertible notes. This funding was used for the purposes of working capital.

An announcement was made to the share market on 10 January 2018 that the Company is to become a significant WA gold and base metals explorer. The Company plans to raise up to $7.5 million via a share placement at 4 cents per share with a free one-for-one attaching option exercisable at 6 cents per share. The name change, acquisition of resource projects and capital raising are subject to shareholder approval, completion of the transaction and re-compliance with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules.

The Company has entered into conditional binding agreements with Great Sandy Pty Ltd and Drillabit Pty Ltd to acquire three resource projects.

The Board has the ability to raise funds for working capital should the need arise. This is based on previous history of the Board where funds have been raised based on ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and in the form of Convertible Notes. Listing Rule 7.1 provides the Company with a 15% placement capacity to raise additional funds.

On the basis of these factors, the Directors believe that the going concern basis of preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

e) Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards:

During the current year the Company adopted all of the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations applicable to its operations which became mandatory. There was no material impact on the financial statements as a result of the adoption of the revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations applicable to its operations.

f) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods:

At the date of authorisation of the financial report, there were a number of Standards on issue but not yet effective. Many standards are not relevant to the Company.

The Directors have reviewed these standards and based on the current operations of the Company, they do not believe that the standards will have a material impact on reported financial position or performance of the Company.

4. Other Receivables - Current (cont'd)

  • 4a. An announcement was made to the market on 17 January 2017 of the termination of the Share Swap Agreement with Mobilicom Limited. Settlement arrangements provided for the payment by Mobilicom Limited to the Company of the sum of $450,000. Of this amount, $100,000 represents the repayment of a fee paid to Mobilicom Limited under the terms of the Share Swap Agreement and $350,000 ($318,818 excluding GST) to cover expenses incurred by the Company in connection with its efforts to seek and implement the proposed transaction. The amount of $450,000 was treated as an adjusting event at 31 December 2016 due to ongoing negotiations which commenced during December 2016 notwithstanding that the settlement agreement with Mobilicom Limited was not signed until 17 January 2017. Settlement funds of $450,000 ($418,182 excluding GST) were received by the Company as announced to the ASX on 3 March 2017.

4b. Credit risk

The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counterparty or group of counterparties. The class of assets described as 'trade and other receivables' is considered to be the main source of credit risk related to the Company.

5c. Capital Management:

The Directors control the capital to ensure that the Company can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. There are no externally imposed capital requirements.

The Directors effectively manage the Company's capital by assessing financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and to changes in the market. The strategy adopted by the Board to manage risk and control the capital of the Company since the prior year has been to raise additional capital via a Convertible Note issue and carefully monitor expenditure.

Further capital raising will occur during the 2018 as set out in an announcement to ASX made on 10 January 2018 that the Company is proposing to raise capital up to $7.5 million for the purpose of becoming a significant WA gold and base metals explorer.

6a. Convertible Notes recognised as equity

Additional funding of $290,000 was raised for the purposes of working capital during December 2017 in the form of convertible notes which are interest free and unsecured.

The Company has the option to convert the notes at any time to shares and they are convertible for a fixed number of shares. There is no unconditional obligation to pay cash or other financial asset to the holder and therefore in accordance with AASB 132, the notes have been classified as equity.

The notes will automatically convert to shares upon the Company issuing a Prospectus and obtaining shareholder approval for the issue of the shares on conversion of the notes. The note holders are entitled to a subscription for ordinary shares converting at an issue of $0.03 (3 cents) per ordinary share and free attaching options with an exercise price of $0.06 (6 cents). The options expire 30 months from the date of issue of the shares and entitle the holder to one ordinary share in the Company.
