Review of Operations

Xin 214 Project – Songyuan

In September 2018, Triple advised that a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ( MoU ) had been signed with Guangzhou Bofu Investment Co. Ltd ( GBIC ), which intends to acquire an 80% interest in Songyuan Petroleum Development Co. Ltd ( SPDC ), which in turn has the right to derive income from the development of 4 oil blocks in

P a g e | 7

==> picture [40 x 42] intentionally omitted <==

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Songyuan City, Jilin Province in the People’s Republic of China ( PRC ). The terms of the MoU provided for an initial period of approximately 6 months (unless extended) and contemplates that the parties will negotiate a transaction whereby Triple indirectly or directly acquires GBIC, thereby obtaining the right to derive income from the above-mentioned oil blocks .

There are understood to be hydrocarbon quantities associated with the exploration areas based on existing wells and, subject to being able to agree terms, the Company intends to engage a suitably qualified reserves evaluator to undertake a review of the relevant technical information to produce an SPE-PRMS compliant report.

Both parties have agreement an extension of the MoU to 28 Feb 2020 and are continuing to work co-operatively in accordance with this arrangement. MoUs of the type entered into are commonly used within the PRC as a pre-cursor to more formal documentation however there can be no guarantee that a binding agreement on acceptable terms will be able to be negotiated. Any transaction is expected to be subject to completion of due diligence, Triple shareholder and / or regulatory approval (including consultation with ASX when the expected terms are determined).

Aolong JV Project in Heilongjiang (Triple interest 80%)

Exploration activity during the year was focused on the evaluation of regional technical studies to evaluate the prospectivity of the Hegang project area as well as other areas to which the Aolong Co-operative Joint Venture ( CJV) holds contractual rights to acquire interests under any potential future extension or variation of the CJV area. As an essential pre-cursor to any further on-ground exploration activities, the joint venture partners continued to discuss necessary measures for closer cooperation, to minimize any future development conflicts as well as identifying other project areas suitable for gas production, having regard to the geological complexities apparent in the project area. Future work is expected to continue to focus on the identification, rank and work-up of potential sites for future drilling (subject to the availability of funds and the successful outcome of joint venture discussions).

Shaanmei Project Areas

As announced by the Company in late 2016, a cooperation agreement ( Agreement ) was reached with Shaanxi Province Coal Bed Methane Exploitation and Utilization Co. Ltd., a subsidiary of Shaanmei Coal Mining Company ( Shaanmei) .

The Agreement was in the form of production sharing for Coal Bed Methane Drainage of three linked areas in Wangfeng and Sangshuping Mining Areas in Hancheng, Shaanxi Province covering approximately 162km2 and provided for a profit sharing arrangement whereby Triple, through wholly-owned HK and PRC subsidiaries, was to hold 80% profit interest. Under the Agreement terms Triple was required to provide RMB5,000,000 (~A$1,000,000) as a performance surety. TNP’s largest shareholder, BGBS had arranged and advanced this funding in support of TNP, with the funding initially in the form of a renewable loan facility.

Subsequent technical evaluation indicated that coal quality is soft, mostly pulverised coal, expected to be able to support fracturing only for a short period, such that commercial production is difficult to achieve using conventional vertical and fracturing drainage. An alternative strategy to use newer technologies was considered, however the very substantial capital investment risk associated was not considered to fit the Company’s investment criteria under the circumstances of the project. During the year, the Triple Board resolved to endorse termination of the Agreement, which was able to be completed without financial penalty. Triple also agreed with BGBS that the RMB 5,000,000 loan advanced to the project is not repayable by Triple or any of its subsidiaries.

Corporate & Financial

On 30 August Triple announced a fully-underwritten non-renounceable entitlements offer ( Entitlement Offer ) of fully paid ordinary shares ( New Shares ) based upon an entitlement of two (2) New Shares for every three (3) existing shares held at the record date. New Shares under the Entitlement Offer were offered at 2.2 cents per share to raise approximately A$633,565 before costs. The Entitlement Offer closed during October 2018 and allotment of the shortfall to the underwriter was completed on 13 October 2018.

During January 2019, substantial shareholding notices were lodged by Beijing Gas Blue Sky Holding Limited, ( BGBS , formerly the Company’s largest shareholder) and by new shareholders of Waypost Limited ( Waypost ) a former subsidiary of BGBS). The Company continues to cooperate closely with BGBS and with the new Waypost investors in relation to the Company’s strategic direction and objectives.

In May 2019, the Company announced the appointment of Mr Hong Bing Zhang and Ms Ruo Yun Zhang as non-executive directors and Mr Tun Yiu (Michael) Kei as an Executive Director.

Operating Results for the Year

The consolidated net loss after income tax attributable to members of the Group amounted to $439,557 (2018: $618,768).

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Remuneration report (continued)

Remuneration structure

In accordance with best practice Corporate Governance, the structure of Non-Executive Director and Executive remuneration is separate and distinct.

Non-Executive Director remuneration

The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders.

The ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of Non-Executive Directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. The latest determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 31 August 2010 when shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of up to $250,000 per year.

The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst Directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice from external shareholders as well as the fees paid to Non-Executive Directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process.

Directors (other than an Alternate Director) are generally entitled to receive a fee for being a Director of the Company, however the Company’s Chairman, Mr Tommy Cheng, waived his entitlement to receive a Directors fee. Remuneration of Non-Independent Directors (appointed as shareholders nominees) remains a matter for consideration by the Board & Remuneration Committee during the current year.

The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors for the year ended 31 March 2019 is detailed in the Remuneration of Directors and named Executives in Table 1 of this report.

Senior Manager and Executive Director remuneration

Remuneration consists of fixed remuneration and Company options (as determined from time to time). In addition to the Company employees and Directors, the Company engages key consultants on a contractual basis. These contracts stipulate the remuneration to be paid to the consultants.

Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually or as required by the full Board (assuming the role of the Remuneration Committee and in accordance with the Remuneration Committee charter). The process consists of a review of relevant comparative remuneration in the market and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. The Committee has access to external, independent advice where necessary.

Fixed remuneration is paid in the form of cash payments.

The fixed remuneration component of Key Management Personnel is detailed in Table 1.

Variable Remuneration

Executives (including Executive Directors) are eligible to participate in the Company’s Short Term Incentive (bonus) schemes, as well as Long Term Incentives arrangements in the form of the grant of share options or participation in the Company Employee Share Scheme (“ESS”).

Key Management Personnel Employment & Service Contracts

The Company has entered into service contracts with entities controlled by its independent non-executive Directors. The service contracts provide for a fee of $3,333 per month to be paid to the entities for the provision of services by the respective Directors and may be terminated by the Company or counterparty on one month’s notice.

AJ Neuling – Company Secretary

The Company has engaged Erasmus Consulting Pty Ltd (“Erasmus”) to provide consulting services including services provided by Mr Neuling (an employee and Director of Erasmus). The consulting arrangement between the Company and Erasmus incorporates a monthly minimum retainer of $1,800 (excluding GST) and additional fees on an hourly rate for work performed by Erasmus personnel in excess of 10 director-level staff hours per month.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations and comply with other requirements of the law.

The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group). For the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity. The financial statements have also been prepared on a historical cost basis. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars.

The Company is a listed public company, domiciled in Australia and operating in Australia (with subsidiaries operating internationally). The principal activity of the Group is the exploration for natural resources.

Going Concern

For the year ended 31 March 2019 the Group recorded a net loss of $448,405 has a working capital deficit of $236,032 and a net operating cash outflow of $323,798.

Notwithstanding the above, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business and on the assumption of sufficient funds continuing to be available for the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Board considers that the Company is a going concern and recognises that additional funding is likely to be required to ensure that the Company can continue to fund the consolidated entity’s operations and further develop its projects during the twelve month period from the date of this financial report. The Directors expect that the Company will be able to continue to raise the funds required to meets its obligations as and when they fall due. In addition, should the need arise, the Group expects it can further reduce overheads until such time as additional working capital is secured.

In the event that the Company is unsuccessful in deriving sufficient additional funding for its operations there would exist a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

(b) Adoption of new and revised standards

Changes in accounting policies on initial application of Accounting Standards

In the year ended 31 March 2019, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period.

With respect to AASB 15 Revenue From Contracts and AASB 9 Financial Instruments: Measurement and Recognition it has been determined by the Directors that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group’s business and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

The Directors have also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the year ended 31 March 2019. With respect to AASB 16 Leases, the Directors have determined that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group’s business and, therefore, no change necessary to Group accounting policies.

(c) Statement of compliance

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 27 June 2019.

The financial statements comply with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

(d) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Triple Energy Ltd (‘the Company’) as at 31 March 2019 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Triple Energy Ltd and its subsidiaries are referred to in this financial report as the group or the consolidated entity.

P a g e | 20

==> picture [40 x 42] intentionally omitted <==

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

(d) Basis of consolidation (continued)

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Control exists where the company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing when the Group controls another entity.

Unrealised gains or transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interests in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets in subsidiaries not held by the Group and are presented separately in the statement of comprehensive income and within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position. Losses are attributed to the non-controlling interests even if that results in a deficit balance.

The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised within equity attributable to owners of the Company.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. When assets of the subsidiary are carried at revalued amounts or fair values and the related cumulative gain or loss has been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the relevant assets (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings as specified by applicable Standards). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under AASB 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ or, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or jointly controlled entity.

(e) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Share-based payment transactions:

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a Black and Scholes model. The Group measures the cost of share-based payments at fair value at the grant date using the Black and Scholes formula taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted, as discussed in Note 14.

(f) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

(i) Interest income

Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial asset.

P a g e | 21

==> picture [40 x 42] intentionally omitted <==

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

(g) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(h) Trade and other receivables Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within periods ranging from 15 days to 30 days.

Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account is used when there is an expected credit loss where the Group may not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Group in making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and significant historic delinquency in making contractual payments to the Group. The expected credit loss is calculated as the difference between the cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cashflows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.

(i) Property, plant and equipment

Plant and equipment other than plant and equipment held solely for use on an exploration and evaluation project is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation.

Tangible fixed assets held solely for use on an exploration and evaluation project may be capitalised in accordance with this policy, or alternatively expensed immediately as appropriate on an area of interest basis. Land and buildings are measured at fair value less accumulated depreciation on buildings and less any impairment losses recognised after the date of the revaluation.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:

Leasehold Improvements – lease term

Plant and equipment – over 5 to 15 years

The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.

(i) Impairment

The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each balance date, with recoverable amount being estimated when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the asset's value in use can be estimated to approximate fair value.

An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating units exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount.

For plant and equipment, impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the cost of sales line item.

(iii) Derecognition and disposal

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.

P a g e | 22

==> picture [40 x 42] intentionally omitted <==

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.

(j) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities

(i) Financial assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:

  • the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;

  • the Group retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; or

  • the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either:

  • (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or

  • (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on the transferred asset, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the Group may repurchase, except that in the case of a written put option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on an asset measured at fair value, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.

(ii) Financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

(k) Foreign currency translation

The functional and presentation currency of Triple Energy Limited is Australian dollars. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance date.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

(l) Income tax

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:

  • when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

  • when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

P a g e | 23

==> picture [40 x 42] intentionally omitted <==

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

(l) Income tax (continued)

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

  • when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;

  • or

  • when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date.

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

(m) Other taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:

  • when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and

  • receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(n) Impairment of assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cashgenerating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent

P a g e | 24

==> picture [40 x 42] intentionally omitted <==

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

(n) Impairment of assets (continued)

with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).

An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

(o) Trade and other payables

Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.

(p) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability.

When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a borrowing cost.

(q) Share-based payment transactions

The Group provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Group in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions).

The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.

In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Triple Energy Limited (market conditions) if applicable.

The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The income or expense for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition.

If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.

If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

(r) 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.

(s) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit / loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit / loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:

  • costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends;

  • the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and

  • other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

(t) Exploration and evaluation

Exploration and evaluation costs are expensed as incurred based upon each area of interest. Acquisition costs will normally be expensed but will be assessed on a case by case basis and if appropriate may be capitalised. These acquisition costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development or sale of the tenement. Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, all future costs are recorded as a development asset.

(u) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors of Triple Energy Limited.

(v) Parent entity financial information

The financial information for the parent entity, Triple Energy Limited, disclosed in Note 22 has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below:

  • a. investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities are accounted for at cost in the parent entity’s financial statements.

b. Share-based payments

The grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of subsidiary undertakings in the Group is treated as a capital contribution to that subsidiary undertaking. The fair value of employee services received; measured by reference to the grant date fair value, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to the investment in subsidiary undertaking, with a corresponding credit to equity.

(c) Tax losses

Unused tax losses for which no deferred tax asset has been recognised have not been recognised as a deferred tax asset as the future recovery of these losses is subject to the Company satisfying the requirements imposed by the regulatory authorities. The benefit of deferred tax assets not brought to account will only be brought to account if:

  • Future assessable income is derived of a nature and an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised; and

  • The conditions for deductibility imposed by tax legislation continue to be complied with and no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit.

As at 31 March 2019 the Company has estimated carry forward tax losses of Triple Energy Limited as the parent entity of $3,516,526 (31 March 2018: $3,225,998). As at balance date the quantum of assessable losses in foreign jurisdictions is yet to be determined.

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the executive management team (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

The operating segments are identified by management based on the nature of its interests and projects. Discrete financial information about each of these projects is reported to the executive management team on at least a monthly basis.

Location of interests and nature of projects

Oil and gas exploration projects

The Group’s current project is located in the People’s Republic of China. The Company continues to review other potential opportunities within the oil and gas sector internationally.

Accounting policies and inter-segment transactions

The accounting policies used by the Group in reporting segments internally are the same as those contained in Note 1 to the accounts and in the prior period.

  • (i) Pursuant to Shareholder approval granted at the 2017 AGM, the Company’s share capital was consolidated on a 1:40 basis. Prior to the Share Consolidation, during April 2017 80 million fully paid ordinary shares were placed at 0.6 cents per share on 5 April 2017.

  • (ii) Pursuant to Shareholder approval granted at the 2017 AGM, the Company’s share capital was consolidated on a 1:40 basis.

  • (iii) On 30 August 2018 Triple announced a fully-underwritten non-renounceable entitlements offer ( Entitlement Offer ) of fully paid ordinary shares ( New Shares ) based upon an entitlement of two (2) New Shares for every three (3) existing shares held at the record date. New Shares under the Entitlement Offer were offered at 2.2 cents per share to raise approximately A$633,565 before costs. The Entitlement Offer closed during October 2018 and allotment of the shortfall to the underwriter was completed on 13 October 2018.

(b) Performance Shares

(i) Drilling Performance Shares

During the year to 31 March 2016, the Company issued 595.3 million drilling performance shares for the drilling and technical services for the two wells in the Hegang area of Heilongjiang Province in China. Subsequently, pursuant to separate shareholder approval, the Company and the performance share holder determined a pro-rata vesting of the reissued shares based on the value of drilling services performed up to that date and 318 million new fully paid ordinary shares were issued, while the balance of 277 million of the reissued drilling performance shares were agreed to have lapsed automatically in accordance with their terms. The drilling performance shares were valued based on the market price at the time of their original issue (being 24 April 2015) and subject to an assessment as at balance date of the number of performance shares likely to have vested as at that date.

Also, where equity instruments have been issued as consideration for the acquisition of assets or services and are required to be separately valued, any difference between fair value of the instrument granted and the actual book value of the assets received.

Foreign Currency Translation Reserve

This reserve is used to record exchange differences arising on translation of the group entities that do not have a functional currency of Australian dollars and have been translated into Australian dollars for presentation purposes.

Consolidation Reserve

This reserve recognises adjustments upon consolidation to record the difference between the non-controlling interest’s share of the net assets and the equity committed by the non-controlling interest.

NOTE 14: SHARE BASED PAYMENTS

At 31 March 2019, the Group has no share-based payment arrangements affecting remuneration in the current or prior year.

Share Options granted to Directors and Consultants

No options were granted during the year to 31 March 2019 (2018: Nil).

NOTE 15: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Group has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:

  • Credit risk

  • Interest rate risk

  • Liquidity risk

  • Market risk, including Foreign currency risk

This note presents the information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital.

The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks as summarised below.

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short term deposits. The main purpose of the financial instruments is to earn the maximum amount of interest at a low risk to the Group. The Group also has other financial instruments such as trade debtors and creditors which arise directly from its operations. For the year ended 31 March 2019, it has been the Group’s policy not to trade in financial instruments.

P a g e | 39

==> picture [40 x 42] intentionally omitted <==

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019

NOTE 15: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)

(a) Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter-party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the Group uses publicly available financial information and its own trading record to rate its major customers. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the risk management committee annually.

The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies.

The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained.

(b) Liquidity risk management

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by seeking to maintain adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Group did not have any undrawn facilities at its disposal as at balance date.

(c) Interest rate risk management

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as the Group deposits the bulk of the Group’s cash reserves in Term Deposits. The risk is managed by the Group by maintaining an appropriate mix between short term and medium-term Deposits. The Group’s exposures to interest rate on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note.

(d) 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 Group’s income or value of the holdings of financial instruments. The Group is exposed to movements in market interest rates on short term deposit, and foreign currency movements primarily on cash and creditor balances. Where possible the Group seeks to ensure that cash balances held and forecast to be held are approximately matched against the currency of actual and expected future liabilities upon maturity. The policy is to monitor the interest rate yield curve out to 120 days to ensure a balance is maintained between the liquidity of cash assets and the interest rate return. Other than the interest free, unsecured borrowings advanced to the Company’s HK subsidiary by BGBS, the Group does not have short or long term debt, and therefore this risk is minimal. The Group limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have acceptable credit ratings. There is no direct material risk exposure to the Group’s financial instruments of either interest rate or foreign currency movements at balance date.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the members of Triple Energy Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Triple Energy Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2019, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 March 2019 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and

  • b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

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

Material uncertainty related to going concern

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report, other than the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section above.

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 March 2019, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report

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

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such

disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, fu ture events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
