Dividends

No dividends have been paid or declared since the start of the financial year and the directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend in respect of the financial year.

Principal Activities

The principal activity of the Group during the year was exploration for natural resources.

Review of Operations

Xin 214 Project - Songyuan

The Company has in place a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Guangzhou Bofu Investment Co. Ltd (GBIC), in relation to that entity’s proposed acquisition of 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 Songyuan City, Jilin Province in the PRC.

The MoU 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. MoUs of this type are commonly used in the PRC as a pre-cursor to more formal documentation.

There are understood to be hydrocarbon quantities associated with the exploration areas based on existing wells and, subject to being able to agree terms and secure funding, 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.

Triple staff in HK and PRC are continuing to progress negotiations and due diligence on the project, notwithstanding that COVID-19 related restrictions on travel and business activities are obviously complicating such initiatives at present.

Aolong JV Project in Heilongjiang

Limited exploration activity was carried out during the year on the Hegang project area or other areas to which the Aolong Co-operative Joint Venture ( CJV ) holds contractual rights to acquire interests. Further work to continue the identification, rank and work-up of potential sites for future drilling remains subject to funding and the successful outcome of joint venture discussions. The joint venture partners continue to work towards agreeing necessary measures for closer co-operation, 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 existing project area.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Corporate & Financial

Triple staff in Australia, HK and PRC, continue to work to identify and evaluate other potential new projects consistent with the Company’s strategy.

As of 31 March 2020 the Group’s consolidated cash balance was A$240,437, including funds held by the Aolong CJV in China. As previously notified, the Company is in ongoing discussion with representatives of its major shareholders in relation to near-medium term financing options, subject to finalization of terms and regulatory matters. It is now expected that additional funding will be made available during the September 2020 quarter.

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 $427,688 (2019: $448,405).

Review of Financial Conditions

As at 31 March 2020 the Group held $240,437 in cash and cash equivalents.

Significant Changes in the State of Affairs of the Group

Other than the Board changes and operational updates as noted elsewhere in this Report, there have been no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group to the date of this Report.

Significant Events After Balance Date

No matter or circumstance has arisen since 31 March 2020 that in the opinion of the Directors has significantly affected, or may significantly affect in future financial years:

• (i) the Group’s operations; (ii) the results of those operations; or (iii) the Group’s state of affairs.

At present it is not possible to accurately predict the likely impact of COVID-19 on the Group’s activities.

Likely Developments and Expected Results

The Group continues to evaluate new projects complementary with the business model of finding and developing producing oil and gas projects.

Except as disclosed herein, disclosure of information regarding likely developments in the operations of the Group in future financial years and the expected results of those operations is likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group. Therefore, this information has not been presented in this report.

Environmental Legislation

The Group is subject to the usual environmental and monitoring requirements in respect of its natural resources exploration activities in China.

The Directors are not aware of any significant breaches of these requirements during the year.

Indemnification and Insurance of Directors and Officers

The Company has agreed to indemnify all the Directors of the Company for any liabilities to another person (other than the Company or related body corporate) that may arise from their position as Directors of the Company and its controlled entities, except where the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith.

During the financial year the Company paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring the Directors and officers of the Company and its controlled entities against any liability incurred in the course of their duties to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.

This report, which forms part of the Directors’ Report, outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for the Key Management Personnel of Triple Energy Limited (the “Company”) for the financial year ended 31 March 2020. The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by Section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001.

The remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for Key Management Personnel (“KMP”) who are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company and the Group, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the parent company.

Key Management Personnel

The Key Management Personnel of the Group during the 2020 and prior financial year comprised the Company’s Directors and the Company Secretary.

(i) Directors

Mr Murray d’Almeida (Independent Non-Executive Director, appointed 18 July 2017)

Mr Chris Berkefeld (Independent Non-Executive Director, appointed 18 July 2017)

Mr Hong Bing Zhang (Non-Executive Director, appointed 15 May 2019)

Mr Edward Siew (Alternate Director for Mr Tommy Cheng appointed 10 October 2018, resigned 15 May 2019)

(ii) Executives

Mr Alex Neuling (Company Secretary)

Remuneration philosophy

The performance of the Company depends upon the quality of the Directors and Executives. The philosophy of the Company in determining remuneration levels is to:

• set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees;

• link executive rewards to shareholder value creation; and

• establish appropriate, demanding performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration

Remuneration Committee

The Board, in its capacity as the Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company; and in accordance with the Remuneration Committee Charter is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the directors, the CEO (where one is employed) and the executive team.

The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of Directors and Executives on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with an overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team.

Nominee Directors (including executive Directors) are not currently remunerated by the Company.

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 former 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, but at present nominee directors receive no remuneration from the Company.

The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors for the year ended 31 March 2020 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”). However there have been no performance-linked remuneration awards in the 2020 or prior financial year.

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

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 2020 the Group recorded a net loss of $427,688, has a working capital deficit of $623,079 and a net operating cash outflow of $400,806.

Consequently the Directors have identified a need for the Group to raise further funds, either through issuing additional equity, convertible securities or potentially a shareholder loan in order to fund ongoing exploration and project evaluation activities and to meet the working capital requirements of the business. The Company considers its subsidiaries will continue to be able to defer payment of liabilities owed (including the interest-free loan received from BGBS). The Company is engaged with key stakeholders and with investors introduced by its Hong Kong and mainland China-based investors in relation to potential new investment for both near-term capital requirements and longer-term strategic growth and funding initiatives.

The Directors have reviewed the Group’s overall position in respect of the matters identified above and are of the opinion that the use of the going concern basis is appropriate in the circumstances based on the expectation that additional funding will be available to the Company and its subsidiaries. However, if the Group is unable to obtain sufficient additional funding through the raising of capital or from loan funds, there exists a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, its ability to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report. Notwithstanding the above, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

(b) Adoption of new and revised standards

Changes in accounting policies on initial application of Accounting Standards

Standards and Interpretations applicable to 31 March 2020

In the year ended 31 March 2020, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Group and effective for the current reporting period. As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group and, therefore, no material change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted

The Directors have also reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted for the period ended 31 March 2020. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the Group and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

(c) Statement of compliance

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 31 July 2020.

P a g e | 20

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

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 2020 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.

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.

(d) 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

P a g e | 21

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Scholes formula taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted, as discussed in Note 14.

(e) 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.

(f) 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.

(g) 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.

(h) 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

P a g e | 22

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

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.

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.

(i) 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.

(j) 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.

(k)

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.

P a g e | 23

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

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.

(k) Income tax (continued)

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.

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.

• (l) 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

(m) 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 cash-generating 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 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.

(n) 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.

(o) 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.

(p) 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.

P a g e | 25

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

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.

(p) Share-based payment transactions (continued)

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.

(q) 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.

(r)

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.

(s)

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.

(t)

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.

(u) 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.

P a g e | 26

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

• 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.

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

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.

INDEPENDEN� A�DI�O��� �EPO��

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 (��he Com�an��) and i�� con��olled en�i�ie� (��he G�o���), �hich com��i�e� �he con�olida�ed ��a�emen� of financial �o�i�ion a� a� 31 March 2020, 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 di�ec�o��� decla�a�ion.

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

• a) gi�ing a ���e and fai� �ie� of �he G�o���� financial �o�i�ion a� a� 31 March 2020 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 A�di�or�s Responsibili�ies for �he A�di� of �he 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 �he Acco�n�ing P�ofe��ional and E�hical S�anda�d� Boa�d�� APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (��he Code�) �ha� 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(a) in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty e�i��� �ha� ma� ca�� �ignifican� do�b� on �he en�i���� abili�� �o con�in�e a� a going conce�n. O�� opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Information other than the financia l repor� and a�di�or�s repor� �hereon

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the info�ma�ion incl�ded in �he G�o���� ann�al �e�o�� fo� �he �ea� ended 31 Ma�ch 2020, b�� doe� no� incl�de �he financial �e�o�� and o�� a�di�o��� �e�o�� �he�eon.

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

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.

A�di�or�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 mi���a�emen�, �he�he� d�e �o f�a�d o� e��o�, and �o i���e an a�di�o��� �e�o�� �ha� 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 o�inion on �he effec�i�ene�� of �he G�o���� in�e�nal con��ol.

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

• Concl�de on �he a���o��ia�ene�� of �he di�ec�o��� ��e of �he going conce�n ba�i� of acco�n�ing and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to e�en�� o� condi�ion� �ha� ma� ca�� �ignifican� do�b� on �he G�o���� abili�� �o con�in�e a� a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw a��en�ion in o�� a�di�o��� �e�o�� �o �he �e lated disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit e�idence ob�ained �� �o �he da�e of o�� a�di�o��� �e�o��. Ho�e�e�, f����e e�en�� o� condi�ion� 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.

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.

P a g e | 46

==> picture [165 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

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 o�� a�di�o��� �e�o�� �nle�� la� o� �eg�la�ion ��ecl�de� ��blic 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.

Report on the Remuneration Report

Opinion on the Remuneration Report

PRINCIPLE 4: SAFEGUARD INTEGRITY IN CORPORATE REPORTING

	ADDITIONAL ASX INFORMATION v	ADDITIONAL ASX INFORMATION v
ASX Recommendation	Comply (Yes/No)	Explanation
ASX Recommendation 4.1:The board of a listed entity should: (a) have an audit committee which: 1) has at least three members, all of whom are non- executive directors and a majority of whom are independent directors; and 2) is chaired by an independent director, who is not the chair of the board, and disclose: 3) the charter of the committee; 4) the relevant qualifications and experience of the members of the committee; and 5) in relation to each reporting period, the number of times the committee met throughout the period and the individual attendances of the members at those meetings; or (b) if it does not have an audit committee, disclose that fact and the processes it employs that independently verify and safeguard the integrity of its corporate reporting, including the processes for the appointment and removal of the external auditor and the rotation of the audit partner.	No	The Board has established an Audit Committee and adopted a charter that sets out the Audit Committee's purpose, composition, duties and responsibilities. The role of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in monitoring and reviewing any matters of significance affecting financial reporting and compliance. A copy of the charter of the Audit Committee is available in the governance section of the Company's website. The Company's Audit Committee for the period ended 31 March 2019 comprised the full board with Mr Chris Berkefeld as chair. Separate meetings of the Audit Committee did not take place during the year, with relevant business instead being considered by the Board, having reference to the appropriate charter. The composition of the Audit Committee during the reporting period did not meet the requirements of Recommendation 4.1, as the composition of the Board did not allow for it. The qualifications, experience and attendance of the members of the Audit Committee are detailed in the Directors’ Report of the 2020 Annual Report.
ASX Recommendation 4.2:The board of a listed entity should, before it approves the entity’s financial statements for a financial period, receive from its CEO and CFO a declaration that, in their opinion, the financial records of the entity have been properly maintained and that the financial statements comply with the appropriate accounting standards and give a true and fair view of the financial position and performance of the entity and that the opinion has been formed on the basis of a sound system of risk management and internal control which is operating effectively.	No	The Company has complied in part with the recommendation. The appropriate declarations are made prior to approval of full and half- year accounts, however the Company had not yet implemented the process for all quarterly cash flow statements within the reporting period, with the Board considering that provision of the assurance for the half-yearly and annual financial statements is sufficient given the size and nature of the Company’s operations.
ASX Recommendation 4.3:A listed entity that has an AGM should ensure that its external auditor attends its AGM and is available to answers questions from security holders relevant to the audit.	Yes	The Audit and Risk Committee Charter deals with the requirement to ensure that the external auditor attends the Company’s AGM and is available to answer questions from the security holders. A representative of the Company’s auditor was present at its 2019 AGM and was available to answer questions from shareholders relevant to the audit and financial statements.
PRINCIPLE 5: MAKE TIMELY AND BALANCED DISCLOSURE
ASX Recommendation 5.1:A listed entity should: (a) have a written policy for complying with its continuous disclosure obligations under the Listing Rules; and (b) disclose that policy or a summary of it.	Yes	The Company has established a continuous disclosure policy which is designed to guide compliance with ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements and to ensure that all directors, senior executives and employees of the Company understand their responsibilities under the policy.
