CORPORATE INFORMATION

Corporate structure

Eurogold Limited is a Company limited by shares that is incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Eurogold Limited is the ultimate parent entity and has prepared a consolidated financial report incorporating the entities that it controlled during the financial year (refer note 25 in the financial report).

REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND PRINCIPLE ACTIVITIES

CORPORATE

During the year Eurogold agreed to sub-underwrite $10 million of the Dragon Mining Limited (“Dragon”) (ASX:DRA) renounceable rights issue. The New Shares under the issue were offered at $1.10 each on the basis of 1 New Share for every 5.5 shares held at the Record Date to raise approximately $15 million before costs. Eurogold took up its allocation under the rights issue and now holds a 24.34% interest in Dragon.

As a consequence of the Dragon rights issue Eurogold entered into a loan facility with the Allied Group of Hong Kong, the Company’s largest shareholder, to accept an offer of finance to cater for any shortfall in the Dragon issue which might exceed Eurogold’s cash reserves.

The term of the loan is 12 months from the date of execution of the facility, being 8 February 2013. The interest rate of 12% per annum is calculated on the amount of the loan amount drawn-down daily from the drawn-down date. A A$50,000 establishment fee was payable upon execution of the loan facility. The draw-down fee is determined by the amount of the loan amount drawn-down as follows:

  • a) A$50,000 if the drawn-down amount is between A$0 to A$3,000,000

  • b) A$100,000 if the drawn-down amount is between A$3,000,000 to A$7,000,000; or

  • c) A$150,000 if the drawn-down amount is between A$7,000,000 to A$10,000,000.

The loan is unsecured and standard terms and conditions apply.

On 12 March 2012 the Company drew down A$1,000,000 from the loan facility to cover its sub-underwriting commitment of $4,360,202.00 on the Dragon Mining rights issue.

In February 2012 the Company sold the balance of its holding in Tanami Gold NL (ASX:TAM) receiving approximately A$6.3 million.

Resource Invest LLC Transaction

Pursuant to Shareholder approval authorising the sale of the Saulyak Gold Project the Company disposed of its Ukrainian gold mining asset to Resource Invest LLC (“RIL”) in July 2007.

The Company received an initial payment of US$2,000,000 (A$2,254,767) from RIL and is entitled to receive a further US$3,000,000 no later than 30 days upon RIL meeting a key regulatory milestone relating to the advancement of the Saulyak Gold Project. This regulatory approval remains outstanding.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS

There were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company during the year.

FINANCIAL POSITION

The net assets of the consolidated entity at 30 June 2012 totalled $15,105,632 (2011: $26,601,789).

Total assets at 30 June 2012 totalled $16,292,156 (2011: $26,847,985). No amount has been recognised in respect of the contingent consideration of USD$3,000,000 to be received if RIL meet key regulatory milestones. The consolidated entity had cash reserves of $564,573 at 30 June 2012.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE DATE

In July 2012 Eurogold’s 100% subsidiary Brinkley Mining South Africa Project 1 (Pty) Ltd sold its two remaining assets in South Africa. After deduction of South African legal and statutory compliance fees the Company received net proceeds of ZAR 2,363,318 (A$282,000).

At the date of this report, there have been no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the financial year which significantly, or may significantly effect:

  • The consolidated groups operations in future years;

  • The results of those operations in future years; or

  • The consolidated entity’s state of affairs in future years.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS

Strategy Going Forward

During the year the Company continued to examine various investment opportunities in resource projects with a particular focus on the gold mining sector.

For various reasons the acquisition of projects reviewed to date have not proceeded. It is difficult for the Company to provide precise timeframes on potential acquisitions other than to say the Company is actively seeking and reviewing resource projects for possible investment by the Company.

It is not the intention of the Board that the primary business of Eurogold will be that of a passive portfolio investor in other companies that own resource projects. However, the Company may from time to time make investments in other resource companies, although the majority of the Company’s cash will be maintained to fund future acquisitions or to provide working capital for project development following acquisition.

DIVIDENDS

No dividend has been declared, provided for or paid in respect of the year ended 30 June 2012.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This Remuneration Report outlines the director and executive remuneration arrangements of the Company and the Group in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. For the purposes of this report Key Management Personnel (KMP) of the Group are defined as those persons having the 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

Peter Gunzburg (Executive Chairman) Brett Montgomery (Non-Executive Director) Neil MacLachlan (Non-Executive Director) Pauline Collinson (Company Secretary)

Remuneration Policy

The Board recognises that the performance of the Company depends upon the quality of its Directors and Executives and to this end the Company is aware that it must attract, motivate and retain experienced Directors and Executives. The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emoluments of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team. Such officers are given the opportunity to receive their base emolument in the form of salary and fringe benefits such as motor vehicle allowances.

In accordance with best practice governance, the structure of Non-Executive Directors and senior executive remuneration is separate and distinct. It should be noted that the amount of salary and the grant of options is at the discretion of the board of directors.

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

  • 5 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED DIRECTORS' REPORT

The Company’s Constitution and ASX Listing Rules specify that aggregate remuneration of Non-Executive Directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting of Shareholders. Approval by Shareholders was granted at a general meeting on 12 August 2008 to pay Non-Executive Directors an aggregate amount of $200,000 per annum. The Board considers fees paid to Non-Executive Directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process. Each Non-Executive Director may also receive an equity based component where approval has been received from Shareholders in a general meeting.

There are no employment contracts in place between the Company and directors and executives.

The Company does not currently have a remuneration committee, the functions of which are carried out by the full board. The Company currently does not have a policy relating to executives for hedging their exposure to options awarded as part of their remuneration package.

Remuneration for directors and executives are not linked to the performance of the economic entity however, to align all directors’ interests with shareholder interests, directors and executives are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and may receive options. This effectively links directors’ and executives performance to the share price performance and therefore to the interests of shareholders. For this reason there are no performance conditions prior to grant, but instead an incentive to increase the value to all shareholders.

EUROGOLD LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

The Board of Directors of Eurogold Limited is responsible for the corporate governance of the consolidated entity. The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of Eurogold Limited on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable.

To ensure the Board is well equipped to discharge its responsibilities it has established guidelines for the nomination and selection of Directors and for the operation of the Board.

The Board and management are committed to corporate governance and to that extent they have adopted the second edition of the “Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations” established by the ASX Corporate Governance Council and published by the ASX in August 2007.

Where there has been any variation from the recommendations it is because the Board believes that the Company is not as yet of a size, nor are its financial affairs of such complexity to justify some of those recommendations and as such those practices continue to be the subject of the scrutiny of the full Board.

Composition of the Board

The Board is comprised of three Directors, of which the Chairman and Managing Director is the only Executive Director. The ASX favour that the Chairman be an Independent Director, however as Mr Peter Gunzburg has been primarily concentrating on the Company's development over the past ten years, has extensive knowledge of the capital markets in Australia and overseas and the Board believes that his role and status as an Executive and as Chairman is appropriate.

The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of each Director who is in office at the date of the annual report, their attendances at meetings and their term of office are detailed in the Directors’ Report.

The majority of the Board are Independent Directors. The table below sets out the detail of the tenure of each Director at the date of this report.


s report.
**Director ** **Role of Director ** Date Appointed Independent
Peter Gunzburg Executive Chairman 24 September 2001 No
Brett Montgomery Non-Executive 15 August 1989 Yes
Neil MacLachlan Non-Executive 13 July2004 Yes

When determining whether a Director is independent, the Board has determined that the Director must not be an executive and:

  • is not a substantial shareholder of the Company or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the Company;

  • within the last three last years has not been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or another group member, or been a Director after ceasing to hold any such employment;

  • within the last three years has not been a principal or employee of a material professional adviser or a material consultant to the Company or another group member, or an employee materially associated with the service provided;

  • is not a material supplier or customer of the Company or other group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated directly or indirectly with a significant supplier or customer;

  • has no material contractual relationship with the Company or another group member other than as a Director of the Company;

  • is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the Director’s ability to act in the best interests of the Company.

Independent Directors' have the right to seek independent professional advice in the furtherance of their duties as Directors, at the Company’s expense. Written approval must be obtained from the Chairman prior to incurring expense on behalf of the Company.

The Board and Board Nominations

The Company does not presently operate a Nomination Committee. The full Board (subject to members voting rights in general meeting) is responsible for selection of new members and has regard to a candidates experience and competence in areas such as mining, exploration, geology, finance and administration that can assist the Company in meeting its corporate objectives and plans.

Under the Company’s Constitution:

  • the maximum number of Directors on the Board is ten;

  • a Director (other than the Managing Director) may not retain office for more than three years without submitting for reelection; and

  • 9 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

  • at the Annual General Meeting each year effectively one third of the Directors in office (other than the Managing Director) retire by rotation and must seek re-election by shareholders.

Code of Conduct

The Board acknowledges the need for the highest standards of corporate governance and ethical conduct by all Directors and employees and as such the Company’s Code of Conduct applies to all Directors and employees of the Company. The Directors and senior executives have the responsibility to carry out their functions with a view to maximising financial performance of the Company along with decision making in conflict of interest situations and quality decision making for the benefit of shareholders.

Diversity Policy

The Board is committed to workplace diversity and recognises the benefits arising from employee and board diversity. Diversity includes, but is not limited to, gender, age, ethnicity and background and the Company is committed to ensure its workplace is free from all forms of discrimination and harassment.

Securities Trading Policy

The Company has adopted a Securities Trading Policy (which is driven by the Corporations Act 2001 requirements) that applies to all Directors, Executives (Key Personnel), Employees and Contractors (“Relevant Persons”). Under this policy and the Corporations Act 2001 Key Personnel and Relevant Persons are prohibited from trading in the Company’s Securities while in possession of unpublished price sensitive information and must adhere to Close Out periods outlined in the Policy. Strict compliance with the Policy is mandatory for all Key Personnel and Relevant Persons.

Corporate Reporting

In accordance with ASX Principle 7, the Chairman, Financial Consultant and Company Secretary have made the following certifications to the Board:

  • That the Company’s financial reports are complete and present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the financial condition and operational results of the Company and Group; and

  • That the above statement is founded on a sound system of internal control and risk management which implements the policies adopted by the Board and that the Company’s risk management and internal control is operating efficiently in all material respects.

Remuneration Committee and Policies

The Company has not as yet appointed a Remuneration Committee. All matters which might be dealt with by such a committee are subject to full scrutiny of Board meetings. This decision will be reviewed on a regular basis as the Company develops.

All compensation arrangements for Directors and Executives are determined and approved by the Board, after taking into account the current competitive rates prevailing in the market.

The amount of remuneration for all Directors including the full remuneration packages, comprising all monetary and nonmonetary components of the Executive Directors and executives, are detailed in the Director’s Report.

There are no schemes for retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation for Directors.

External Auditors

The auditors of the Company, Ernst & Young, have open access to the Board of Directors at all times.

Audit Committee

The Company presently does not have an Audit Committee as the directors believe that the Company is not of a size, nor are its financial affairs of such complexity to justify a separate Audit Committee. All matters which might be dealt with by such a committee are subject to full scrutiny of Board Meetings. This decision will be reviewed as the Company develops. Notwithstanding this, it is the Board's responsibility to ensure that an effective internal control framework exists within the entity. This includes the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records and the reliability of financial information as well as non-financial considerations.

Managing Risks

The Board meets regularly to evaluate, control, review and implement the Company’s operations and objectives.

Regular controls established by the Board include:

  • detailed monthly financial reporting;

  • delegation of authority to the Managing Director to ensure approval of expenditure obligations;

  • implementation of operating plans, cash flows and budgets by management and Board monitoring of progress against projections; and

  • procedures to allow Directors, and management in the furtherance of their duties, to seek independent professional advice via the utilisation of various external technical consultants.

  • 10 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board recognises the need to identify areas of significant business risk and to develop and implement strategies to mitigate these risks.

Commitment to Shareholders & Ethical Standards

The Board supports the highest standards of corporate governance and requires its members and the management and staff of the Company to act with integrity and objectivity in relation to:

  • Compliance with laws and regulations affecting the Company’s operations;

  • The ASX’s Corporate Governance Council's principles and recommendations including the Combined Code On Corporate Governance;

  • Employment practices;

  • Responsibilities to the community;

  • Responsibilities to the individual;

  • The environment;

  • Conflict of interests;

  • Confidentiality;

  • Ensure that shareholders and the financial community are at all times fully informed in accordance with the spirit and letter of the ASX’s continuous disclosure requirements;

  • Corporate opportunities or opportunities arising from these for personal gain or to compete with the Company;

  • Protection of and proper use of the Company’s assets; and

  • Active promotion of ethical behaviour.

Continuous Disclosure

In accordance with ASX Principle 5, the Board has established a disclosure policy and the Company is committed to:

  • Ensuring that Shareholders have the opportunity to access externally available information issued by the Company;

  • Providing full and timely information to the market about the Company’s activities; and

  • Complying with the obligations contained in the ASX Listing Rules and Corporations Act 2001 relating to continuous disclosure.

The Executive Chairman and the Company Secretary have been nominated as the people responsible for communication with the ASX.

Monitoring of the Board's Performance and Communication to Shareholders

In order to ensure that the Board continues to discharge its responsibilities in an appropriate manner, the performance of all Directors is constantly reviewed by the Chairman. The Company does not presently have an evaluation of the Board and all the Board members performed by an independent consultant however may do so once the Company develops.

The Board of Directors aims to ensure that the shareholders, on behalf of whom they act, are informed of all information necessary to assess the performance of the Directors. Information is communicated to the shareholders through:

  • the Annual Report which is distributed to all shareholders;

  • the availability of the Company’s Quarterly Report to shareholders so requesting;

  • the Half-Yearly Report distributed to shareholders so requesting;

  • adherence to continuous disclosure requirements;

  • the Annual General Meeting and other meetings so called to obtain shareholder approval for Board action as appropriate; and

  • the provision of the Company's website containing all of the above mentioned reports, corporate governance practices and policies and its constant update and maintenance.

Statement by the Managing Director and Company Secretary

The Executive Chairman and Company Secretary confirm to the board that the group's financial report presents a true and fair view in all material respects, of the financial condition and operational results of the Company and group. The financial report is founded on a sound system of risk management, internal compliance and control. Further, it is confirmed that the group's risk management and internal compliance is operating efficiently and effectively.

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The financial report of Eurogold Limited (the Company) for the year ended 30 June 2012 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 28 September 2012.

Eurogold Limited is a Company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia and whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The company is a profit entity. The nature of the operation and principal activities of the consolidated entity are described in the Directors’ Report.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB).

The financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for held for trading and available for-sale investments, which have been measured at fair value.

The financial report is prepared in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000) unless otherwise stated.

(b) Going Concern

This report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Group has incurred a net loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2012 of $10,447,529 (2011: $1,559,185) and experienced net cash outflows from operating activities of $703,241 (2011: $1,542,350). As 30 June 2012, the Group had net assets of $15,105,632 (2011: $26,601,789) and net current liabilities of $195,649 (2011: net current assets of $1,553,425).

Notwithstanding the above, the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is reliant on the raising of funds through a debt or equity issue and/or the realisation of its investments.

In consideration of the above matters, the directors have determined that it is reasonably foreseeable that the Group will continue as going concern and that it is appropriate that the going concern method of accounting be adopted in the preparation of the financial statements. In the event that the Group is unable to continue as a going concern (due to inability to raise future funding requirements), it may be required to realise its assets at amounts different to those currently recognised, settle liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business and make provisions for other costs which may arise as a result of cessation or curtailment of normal business operations.

Accordingly, the financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the group not continue as a going concern.

(c) Compliance Statement

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

(d)

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations that are not yet mandatory

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.

From 1 July 2011, the Group has adopted all the Accounting Standards and Interpretations, mandatory for annual periods beginning on 1 July 2011, including:

AASB 10 Consolidated
Financial

AASB 10 establishes a new control model that applies
to all entities.It replaces parts of AASB 127
Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements
dealing with the accounting for consolidated financial
statements and UIG-112_Consolidation – Special_
Purpose Entities.
The new control model broadens the situations when
an entity is considered to be controlled by another
entity and includes new guidance for applying the
model to specific situations, including when acting as a
manager may give control, the impact of potential
voting rights and when holding less than a majority
voting rights may give control.
Consequential amendments were also made to other
standards via AASB 2011-7.
1 January 2013 1 July 2013
AASB 12 Disclosure of
Interests in Other
Entities
AASB 12 includes all disclosures relating to an entity’s
interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements,
associates and structures entities. New disclosures
have been introduced about the judgments made by
management to determine whether control exists, and
to require summarised information about joint
arrangements, associates and structured entities and
subsidiaries with non-controlling interests.
1 January 2012 1 July 2013
AASB 13 Fair Value
Measurement
AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance for
determining the fair value of assets and liabilities.
AASB 13 does not change when an entity is required
to use fair value, but rather, provides guidance on how
to determine fair value when fair value is required or
permitted. Application of this definition may result in
different fair values being determined for the relevant
assets.
AASB 13 also expands the disclosure requirements for
all assets or liabilities carried at fair value. This
includes information about the assumptions made and
the qualitative impact of those assumptions on the fair
value determined.
Consequential amendments were also made to other
standards via AASB 2011-8.
1 January 2013 1 July 2013
AASB 119 Employee Benefits The main change introduced by this standard is to
revise the accounting for defined benefit plans. The
amendment removes the options for accounting for the
liability, and requires that the liabilities arising from
such plans is recognized in full with actuarial gains and
losses being recognized in other comprehensive
income. It also revised the method of calculating the
return on plan assets.
The revised standard changes the definition of short-
term employee benefits. The distinction between short-
term and other long-term employee benefits is now
based on whether the benefits are expected to be
settled wholly within 12 months after the reporting date.
Consequential amendments were also made to other
standards via AASB 2011-10.

AASB 9 Financial
Instruments
AASB 9 includes requirements for the classification
and measurement of financial assets.
The main changes are described below.
(a)
Financial assets that are debt instruments will be
classified based on (1) the objective of the
entity’s business model for managing the
financial assets; (2) the characteristics of the
contractual cash flows.
(b)
Allows an irrevocable election on initial
recognition to present gains and losses on
investments in equity instruments that are not
held for trading in other comprehensive income.
Dividends in respect of these investments that
are a return on investment can be recognised in
profit or loss and there is no impairment or
recycling on disposal of the instrument.
(c)
Financial assets can be designated and
measured at fair value through profit or loss at
initial recognition if doing so eliminates or
significantly reduces a measurement or
recognition inconsistency that would arise from
measuring assets or liabilities, or recognising the
gains and losses on them, on different bases.
(d)
Where the fair value option is used for financial
liabilities the change in fair value is to be
accounted for as follows:
- The change attributable to changes in
credit risk are presented in other
comprehensive income (OCI)
- The remaining change is presented in profit
or loss
1 January 2013* 1 July 2013*
  • AASB ED 215 Mandatory effective date of IFRS 9 proposes to defer the mandatory effective date of AASB 9 from annual periods beginning 1 January 2013 to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015, with early application permitted. At the time of preparation, finalisation of ED 215 is still pending by the AASB. However, the IASB has deferred the mandatory effective date of IFRS 9 to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015, with early application permitted.

The effect of these changes has not yet been determined.

(e) Statement of Significant Accounting Policies

(i) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the parent entity Eurogold Limited, and its controlled entities, referred to collectively throughout these financial statements as the "consolidated entity" or "the group".

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

Financial statements of foreign controlled entities presented in accordance with overseas accounting principles are, for consolidated purposes, adjusted where necessary to comply with group policy and Australian Accounting Standards. Adjustments are also made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.

All intercompany balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.

Controlled entities are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the consolidated entity.

  • (ii) Investment in associate

The Group’s investment in associate is accounted for using the equity method of accounting in the

  • 20 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

consolidated financial statements and at cost in the parent. The associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence and that are neither subsidiaries nor joint ventures.

The financial statements of associates are used by the Group to apply the equity method of accounting.

Investment in the associate is carried at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Group's share of net assets of the associate, less any impairment of value.

(iii) Revenue recognition

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

Rendering of Services

Revenue is recognised as the services are rendered in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract.

Interest

Revenue is recognised as the interest accrues (using the effective interest method, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset) to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

(iv) Income tax

Current income 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 the assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

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

  • except where the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or 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; and

  • in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences 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 assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:

  • except where 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; and

  • in respect of deductible temporary difference associated with investments in subsidiaries, deferred tax asset are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences 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 the statement of comprehensive income.

  • 21 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

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.

  • (v) Goods and services tax

Revenues, expenses and assets (other than receivables) are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (ATO). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are included in the Cash Flow Statement on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.

  • (vi) Plant and equipment

Cost

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.

The cost of an item of plant and equipment comprises:

  • its purchase price, including import duties and non refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates;

  • any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management; and

  • the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis on all plant and equipment other than land. Major depreciation periods are:

Life
Plant & equipment
3 – 5 years
Method
straight line

Impairment

The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. If any indication of impairment exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount.

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

Derecognition

An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. 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 item) is included in the statement of comprehensive income in the period the item is derecognised.

(vii) Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the consolidated entity assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the consolidated entity makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an

  • 22 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

individual asset, unless the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pretax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

As 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.

(viii) Trade and other receivables

All trade and other receivables are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given and including acquisition charges associated with the receivable.

Receivables from related parties are recognised and carried at the nominal amount due. Interest is taken up as income on an accrual basis.

Allowance for doubtful debts are made based on an assessment made by directors on the recoverability of receivables.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Individual debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified. An impairment provision is recognised when there is objective evidence that the Consolidated Entity will not be able to collect the receivable. Financial difficulties of the debtor, default payments or debts more than 60 days overdue are considered objective evidence of impairment. The amount of the impairment loss is the receivable carrying amount compared to the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

(ix) Investments and other financial assets

Investments and financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are categorised as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired.

When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

Recognition and Derecognition

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date, ie the date that the Group commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets under contracts that require delivery of the assets within the period established generally by regulation or convention in the market place. Financial assets are derecognised when the right to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or been transferred.

  • (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets classified as held for trading are included in the category ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term with the intention of making a profit. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on financial assets held for trading are recognised in profit or loss and the related assets are classified as current assets in the statement of financial position.

(ii) Held-to-maturity investments Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments intended to be held for an undefined period are not included in this classification. Investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity, such as bonds, are subsequently measured at amortised cost. This cost is computed as the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between the initially recognised amount and the maturity amount. This calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums and discounts. For investments carried at amortised cost, gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process .

(iii) Available-for-sale investments

Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative financial assets, principally equity securities that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as any of the two preceding categories. After

  • 23 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

initial recognition available-for-sale securities are measured at fair value with gains or losses being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is recognised in profit or loss.

The fair values of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets are determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the balance date. For investments with no active market, fair values are determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include: using recent arm’s length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument that is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models making as much use of available an supportable market data as possible and keeping judgmental inputs to a minimum.

(x) Leased assets

The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.

Operating Leases

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are expensed in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

  • (xi) Trade and other payables

Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the consolidated entity becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.

Payables to related parties are carried at the principal amount. Interest, when charged by the lender, is recognised as an expense on an accruals basis.

(xii) Foreign currency translation

Both the functional and presentation currency of Eurogold Limited is Australian dollars (A$).

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency at 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. All exchange differences in the consolidated financial report are taken to the statement of comprehensive income.

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 original 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.

(xiii) Employee benefits

Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and any other employee entitlements due to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates expected to be paid when the liability is settled. All other employee entitlement liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. In determining the present value of future cash outflows, the interest rates attaching to national government bonds that have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability are used.

(xiv) Provisions

A provision is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Where the consolidated entity 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 determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

  • 24 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

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

(xv) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purposes of the Cash Flow Statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are included within interest-bearing loans and borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

(xvi) Issued Capital Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity, net of tax, as a reduction of the proceeds received.

(xvii) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to members of the Company for the reporting period, after excluding any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends on ordinary shares), by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Company, adjusted for any bonus issue.

Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the basic EPS earnings, adjusted by the after tax effect of financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and other non-discretionary changes in revenues and expenses that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares of the Company adjusted for any bonus issue. (xviii) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised.

(xix) Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty (i) Significant accounting estimates and assumptions The carrying value of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are outlined below. (ii) Impairment of plant and equipment Plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment if there is any indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where a review for impairment is conducted, the recoverable amount is assessed by reference to the higher of 'value in use' (being the net present value of expected cash flows of the relevant cash generating unit) and 'fair value less costs to sell'. Variations to the expected cash flows, and the timing thereof, could result in significant changes to any impairment losses recognised, if any, which could in turn impact future financial results.

(iii) Impairment of available-for-sale assets

The Group holds a number of available-for-sale financial assets and follows the requirements of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement in determining when an available-for-sale asset is impaired.

In making this judgement the Group assessed the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost.

(iv) Brinkley Mining PLC Functional Currency Under the accounting standards, each entity within the group is required to determine its functional currency. As Brinkley does not represent a foreign operation and is an extension of the parent entity, it has been determined that its functional currency is Australian dollars.

  • 25 -

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

(xx) Share based payment transactions

Equity settled transactions

The Group provides benefits to its employees, including key management personnel (KMP), 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 equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period), ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting date).

At each subsequent reporting date until vesting, the cumulative charge to the statement of comprehensive income is the product of:

  • the grant date fair value of the award;

  • (i) the current best estimate of the number of awards that will vest, taking into account such factors as the likelihood of employee turnover during the vesting period and the likelihood of non-market performance conditions being met; and

  • (ii) the expired portion of the vesting period.

The charge to the statement of comprehensive income for the period is the cumulative amount as calculated above less the amounts already charged to previous periods. There is a corresponding entry to equity.

Until an award has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent and will be adjusted if more or fewer awards vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any award subject to a market condition is considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are satisfied.

If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised if the terms had not been modified. An additional 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 a cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it was granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share

Deferred tax assets have not been brought to account at 30 June 2012 (other than to offset deferred tax liabilities) because the directors do not believe it is appropriate to regard realisation of the future tax benefit as probable. These benefits will only be obtained if:

(i) the Consolidated Entity derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the deduction for the loss to be realised;

(ii) the Consolidated Entity complies with the conditions for the deductibility imposed by law including the continuity of ownership and/or business tests; and

  • (iii) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Consolidated Entity in realising the benefit from the deduction for the loss.

As a consequence of the Dragon rights issue Eurogold entered into a loan facility with the Allied Group of Hong Kong, the Company’s largest shareholder, to accept an offer of finance to cater for any shortfall in the Dragon issue which might exceed Eurogold’s cash reserves.

The term of the loan is 12 months from the date of execution of the facility, being 8 February 2013. The interest rate of 12% per annum is calculated on the amount of the loan amount drawn-down daily from the drawn-down date. A A$50,000 establishment fee was payable upon execution of the loan facility. The draw-down fee is determined by the amount of the loan amount drawn-down as follows:

  • a) A$50,000 if the drawn-down amount is between A$0 to A$3,000,000

  • b) A$100,000 if the drawn-down amount is between A$3,000,000 to A$7,000,000; or

  • c) A$150,000 if the drawn-down amount is between A$7,000,000 to A$10,000,000.

The loan is unsecured and standard terms and conditions apply.

On 12 March 2012 the Company drew down A$1,000,000 from the loan facility to cover its subunderwriting commitment of $4,360,202.00 on the Dragon Mining rights issue.

21. LOSS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing net income/loss for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net income/loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent adjusted for the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares of the Company adjusted by any bonus issue.

The following reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

28. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

(a) Financial Risk Management Objectives & Policies

The Group's principal financial instruments comprise cash, available for sale and trading assets and short term borrowings.

The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group operations. The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities such as receivables and payables, which arise directly from its operations.

The Company also has investments in listed companies, some of which are classified as held for trading and some considered long term investments.

The Executive Chairman is responsible for managing the risks associated with the Group’s financial investments and reporting to the board of directors.

Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements.

(b) Interest Rate Risk - Consolidated

The consolidated entity’s exposure to interest rate risks and the effective interest rates of financial assets (excluding investments in controlled entities and associates) and financial liabilities are as follows:

The effect of a 1% increase in interest rates on the cash assets would be to increase the profit from continuing operations by $5,646 (2011: $9,613) and increase equity by $5,646 (2011: $9,613). The effect of a 1% decrease in interest rates on the cash assets would be to decrease the profit from continuing operations by $5,646 (2011: $9,613) and decrease equity by $5,646 (2011: $9,613).

c) Fair values

The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements at amortised cost approximates their respective fair values.

The Fair Value Hierarchy assigns rankings to the level of judgment which is applied in deriving inputs for valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the Fair Value Hierarchy are as follows:

EUROGOLD LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

Level 1 is the preferred input for valuation and reflects unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities which the economic entity can access at the end of the reporting period. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis.

Level 2 is the valuation of assets and liabilities either directly or indirectly based upon market observables other than quoted prices. For example: financial assets with fair values based on broker quotes; investments in private equity funds with fair values obtained via fund managers; and assets that are valued using the economic entities' own models whereby the majority of assumptions are market observable.

Level 3 relates to inputs that are unobservable. Unobservable inputs means that fair values are determined in whole or in part using a valuation technique (model) based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.

(d) Credit Risk Exposures

The consolidated entity’s maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any allowance for doubtful debts, of those assets as indicated in the statement of financial position.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The consolidated entity is not materially exposed to any individual overseas country or individual customer. The company only banks with reputable financial institutes with good credit ratings.

(e) Liquidity Risk

The consolidated entity’s objective is to maintain consistency of funding via the raising of equity or short term loans as and when required. The contractual maturity analysis of trade payables of $127,245 is set out in note 11 and $1,000,000 interest bearing liabilities as set out in note 12. Refer to note 29 in reference to the royalty payment guaranteed by the Company.

(f) Market Price Risk on Held for Trading and Available for Sale Investments

The amount of investments recorded in the financial statements represents their respective net fair values, determined in accordance with the accounting policies disclosed in Note 2.

At 30 June 2012 had share prices moved, as illustrated in the table below, post tax, profit and equity would have been impacted as follows:

29. CONTINGENT ASSET AND LIABILITIES

  • a) On 10 July 2007 the Group disposed of its Ukrainian gold mining assets for US$5,000,000. US$3,000,000 of this amount remains outstanding and will only be received upon the purchaser meeting a regulatory milestone relating to the advancement of the Saulyak Gold Project. With the sale of its Ukrainian gold mining assets the Group is no longer exposed to operating in the Ukraine other than in relation to the receipt of US$3,000,000 which is still due in relation to the sale of assets.

  • b) The Company has guaranteed the payment of a royalty by Saulyak Limited Liability Company based on gold output from the Saulyak Gold Project which was disposed of by the Company on 10 July 2007. The royalty is up to 2% net smelter royalty per ounce of gold produced form the Saulyak Gold Project payable only in respect of ounces of gold produced over 750,000 ounces in total. Gold production from the Saulyak Gold Project has not yet commenced with the current owners of the project yet to secure a mining licence.

Independent auditor's report to the members of Eurogold Limited

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Eurogold Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2012, 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, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year's end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors' responsibility for the financial report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation 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 controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 2, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements , that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor's responsibility

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

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

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

Independence

In conducting our audit we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor’s Independence Declaration, a copy of which is included in the Directors’ Report.
