FIRESTRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED ACN 149 796 332 HALF YEAR REPORT TO 31 DECEMBER 2015

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Directors

The names of Directors who held office during or since the end of the half-year:

Roger Steinepreis Non-Executive Chairman
David Holden Non-Executive Director
Paul Lloyd Director/Company Secretary

Company Secretary

Paul Lloyd held the position of Company Secretary during the financial period.

Operations

The loss for the half year ended 31 December 2015 was $511,534 (31 December 2014: $167,330).

The 6 months ended 31 December 2015 has been a very active half year for the Company and its Directors. The Directors have identified and further advanced the acquisition of 100% of the issued share capital of Linius (Aust) Pty Ltd resulting in a Notice of meeting being sent to all shareholders on 25 February 2016. The meeting will consider 16 resolutions, including the acquisition of Linius (Aust) Pty Ltd and the changing of the Company’s name to Linius Technologies Limited.

ABOUT LINIUS (AUST) PTY LTD

Linius has the rights to a transformative patented technology in video management and broadcasting.

The highlights of the Linius business are as follows;

  • Linius transforms video file management and distribution by indexing and managing data within the video file itself.

  • Linius has the potential to disrupt the entire video value chain.

  • Potential to dramatically reduce the production and supply side costs of video management by, for example, removing the need for transcoding to the myriad of file formats required for broadcasting to different devices.

  • Potential to facilitate truly personalised viewing experiences. No two streams need ever be the same again.

  • US and International patents granted.

FIRESTRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED ACN 149 796 332 HALF YEAR REPORT TO 31 DECEMBER 2015

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

  • Limited deployment partners identified.

  • 93% of all consumer web traffic and 64% of mobile is video (ref: Cisco).

  • Strong management team in place with extensive experience in the video space.

Background

Linius has designed and patented the world’s first video virtualisation engine. The technology transforms large inflexible video files into small highly flexible data structures. The patented process applies two highly successful techniques to video – data indexing and virtualisation, which means that video can be indexed, spliced and edited in real time.

Content publishing no longer requires transcoding, complex workflow systems or numerous individual streams to personalise video delivery. Instead video files can be virtualised and delivered as required to any standards based device.

Some of the key potential benefits include:

For Content owners:

  • Greater opportunity to monetise content catalogues

  • Almost eliminate transcoding costs

  • Improved security and control of assets

  • Access and manage entire content database

  • Simplified workflow for video play out on standards based devices

  • Capability to truly personalise content viewing experiences

  • Ability to insert specific ads in individuals streams

  • Personalised pricing options

Infrastructure providers:

  • Dramatically reduce transport, storage and broadcast costs

  • Significant capex savings on infrastructure and storage costs

Linius has 7 patents and 12 patent applications across 9 countries including a freedom to operate in the USA.

Capital raising

The Company lodged a Prospectus with ASIC on 3 March 2016 to raise a maximum of $3,500,000 via the issue of 70,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.05 per share. The offer closes 30 March 2016 and a copy of the prospectus is available from the Company’s website.

The prospectus includes a thorough analysis of the Linius software and the various business models to be employed to commercially develop that software.

FIRESTRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED ACN 149 796 332 HALF YEAR REPORT TO 31 DECEMBER 2015

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Exploration Activities

During the six months to 31 December 2015 the Company has completed minimal exploration on the Copper Ridge project in Utah, USA. The Directors made a decision to incur the minimum expenditure to maintain the project given the capital markets interest in early stage copper and gold projects.

Initial conclusions from ongoing desk top studies recommended a number of claims may be reduced. This is in order to minimise expenditure with the remaining claims covering the key prospects already defined. The asset remains of value to the Company and the project will continue to be maintained to meet the requirements of State and the Federal legislation in the USA.

Auditor’s Independence Declaration

The lead auditor’s independence declaration under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 7 for the half year ended 31 December 2015.

This report is signed in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

FIRESTRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED ACN 149 796 332 HALF YEAR REPORT TO 31 DECEMBER 2015

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Statement of compliance

These interim financial statements are general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, applicable accounting standards including AASB 134 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, Accounting Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’). Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’.

This interim half year report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the Group as in the annual financial report.

It is recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2015 and any public announcements made by Firestrike Resources Limited or its subsidiaries during the half year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.

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

Basis of preparation

The interim report has been prepared on a historical cost basis. Cost is based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. The Company is domiciled in Australia and all amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

For the purpose of preparing the interim report, the half year has been treated as a discrete reporting period.

Accounting judgments and key estimates

The preparation of interim financial reports requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Group financial report for the year ended 30 June 2015.

FIRESTRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED ACN 149 796 332 HALF YEAR REPORT TO 31 DECEMBER 2015

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Accounting policies and methods of computation

The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Adoption of new and revised Accounting Standards

In the half year ended 31 December 2015, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Group’s operations and effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2015. The Directors have also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the half-year ended 31 December 2015. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group’s business and, therefore, no change necessary to Group accounting policies.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of Firestrike Resources Limited

Report on the Condensed Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Firestrike Resources Limited (“the company”) which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2015, the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the group comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors’ responsibility for the half-year financial report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year 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 half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the group’s financial position as at 31 December 2015 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of the company, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Firestrike Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • a) giving a true and fair view of the group’s financial position as at 31 December 2015 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
