DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Your directors present their report, together with the financial report on Red Gum Resources Limited (“Company”) for the half-year ended 31 December 2014.

Corporate and Operational Overview

During the Reporting Period (1 July 2014 to 31 December 2014) the Company’s activities were focused on the proposed acquisition of Holiday Planet, Asia Escape and Motive Travel, subject to regulatory and Shareholder approvals (“the Transaction”). This included preparation of materials for an Extraordinary General Meeting, Independent Export’s Report and a Prospectus which sought to raise funds as part of a relisting of the Company following Shareholder and other regulatory approvals.

Consistent with previous stated intentions, operationally the Company’s mining related field activities remained on hold during the Reporting Period. There was no non-essential expenditure related to activities in Peru and Chile and no new material expenditure commitments incurred in relation to the Company’s mining interests.

Corporate and operational highlights

  • The Company consolidated its Capital Structure following approval by Shareholders at an EGM held on 18 December 2014.

  • Shareholders approved all Resolutions associated with the Transaction.

  • Prospectus lodged on 11 November 2014, with Supplementary Prospectus lodged on 5 December 2014.

  • No non-essential exploration expenditure, nor new material expenditure commitments, incurred for Red Gum’s mining concessions, which all remain in good standing.

  • Executive Services Agreement for the Chairman terminated by mutual agreement to reduce overheads.

  • Subsequently, as announced on 13 February 2015, the Transaction failed to proceed and accordingly the Company will pursue other future opportunities.

Current directors

The names of each person who has been a director during the half-year and to the date of this report are:

  • Dr Raymond Shaw – Executive Chairman

  • Ms Jennifer Tobin - Non Executive Director

  • Mr Edwin Bulseco – Non Executive Director

Company secretary

Mr Malcolm Lucas-Smith

Operating results

The net loss attributable to members of the Company for the half-year ended 31 December 2014 was $2,080,517 (2013: $5,017,326). The loss is primarily a result of the Transaction not proceeding, which resulted in share issue costs and other transaction costs of $1,135,387 being expensed to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Corporate and Operational Activities

Activity during the Reporting Period was focused on the proposed Transaction. During the Reporting Period an Extraordinary General Meeting was called to consider the Transaction, which was held on 27 November 2014, on the same date as the Annual General Meeting. In accordance with a shareholder resolution the EGM was adjourned and resumed on 18 December 2014, when all resolutions put in connection with the proposed Transaction were approved unanimously.

On 12 November 2014 the Company announced that a prospectus had been lodged with ASIC and ASX for an offer of up to 25,000,000 shares in the Company, to raise up to $5,000,000 and to recomply with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules. Subsequently a Supplementary Prospectus was lodged with ASIC on 4 December 2014, following a re-negotiation with the Vendors of the terms of the acquisitions of Holiday Planet, Asia Escape and Motive Travel. As part of these re-negotiations the Company, by agreement between the parties, varied the original terms to allow for a change in the proposed consolidation ratio of the Company’s issued capital from 1:25 to 1:44, subject to the approval of shareholders at the adjourned EGM.

Following approval by Shareholders on 18 December 2014, the consolidation of the Company’s securities was completed on 29 December 2014.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

On 1 December 2014 the Company sought, and was granted, a voluntary suspension from trading on the ASX, pending shareholder approval of the Transaction at the EGM and then the Company's re-listing on completion of the Transaction.

By mutual agreement the Board agreed to terminate the executive services agreement of the Chairman as at 31 December 2014, in order to reduce overhead costs. Dr Shaw will continue to perform the role in the future and receive a non-executive director’s fee.

Operationally the Company’s mining related field activities remained on hold during the Reporting Period. There were no non-essential exploration related activities undertaken, nor new expenditure commitments incurred, in either Chile or Peru. Red Gum’s 100% owned concessions, at Cerro Huancash, Chongos and La Negra, remained in good standing.

No field activities were undertaken during the Reporting Period by the Company, and no safety or environmental issues were reported.

Events subsequent to balance date

On 13 February 2015, the Company announced that the Transaction would not proceed. The Company is currently in suspension until 16 March 2015.

As announced on 2 March 2015 the Company is currently in negotiations with a number of potential bidders for the acquisition of all or some of its mining assets located in Peru and Chile. The completion of any transaction arising from these negotiations may require both shareholder and ASX approvals.

Signed in accordance with a resolution of the directors.

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014

1. Nature of operations

Red Gum Resources Limited’s and its subsidiaries’ (“Group”) principal activity during the Reporting Period was global mineral exploration.

During the Reporting Period the Group retained its mining concessions in Chile and the central Peruvian Polymetallic Belt in good standing, it having previously announced that the Company’s forward intentions would be to pursue other business opportunities outside of the resources sector given the current lack of investor interest in greenfields exploration assets.

2. General information and basis of preparation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“the interim financial statements”) of the Group are for the six months ended 31 December 2014 and are presented in Australian dollars (“$”), which is the functional currency of the parent company. These general purpose interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) 134: Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all of the information required in the annual financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2014 and any public announcements made by the Group during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements under the Australian Stock Exchange (“ASX”) Listing Rules and Corporations Act 2001.

The interim financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

The interim financial report covers the Company, Red Gum Resources Limited (“Company”) and its 100% subsidiaries Red Gum Resources (Peru) Pty Ltd, Red Gum Resources (Chile) Pty Ltd, Red Gum Chile SpA and Central Peru Resources SAC (“Group”).

Red Gum Resources Limited is a public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The registered office is 79 Angas Street, Adelaide SA 5000.

The Company was incorporated on 11 May 2006.

The interim financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2014 (including the comparatives) were approved by the board of directors on 16 March 2015.

3. Significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies that have been used in preparation of these consolidated interim financial statements are summarised below.

The interim financial statements have been prepared using the measurement basis specified by the Australian Accounting Standards for each type of asset, liability, income and expense. The measurement bases are more fully described in the accounting policies below.

There is no change in accounting policy during the current period, the accounting policies and methods of computation are the same as those adopted in the most recent annual financial report. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the Group for the purposes of preparation of these interim financial statements.

Page 10 of 21

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Changes in accounting policies

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the Group’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2014, except for the application of the following standards as of 1 July 2014:

  • AASB 1031: Materiality

  • AASB 2013-9, Conceptual Framework, Materiality and Financial Instruments

  • AASB 2014-2, Amendments to AASB 1053 – Transition to and between Tiers, and related Tier 2 Disclosure Requirements

  • AASB 2014-1, Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards Part A, B and C

Management has reviewed the new requirements of the above standards and has concluded that there is no effect on the classification or presentation of balances as the Group has no arrangements within the scope of the above standards.

4. Estimates

When preparing the interim financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results.

The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the interim financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the Group's last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2014.

5. Going concern

The consolidated Group has recorded a loss attributable to equity holders of $2,080,517 (31 December 2013: $5,017,326), however the Group has net assets of $521,305 (30 June 2014: $2,603,451) and cash and cash equivalents of $533,456 (30 June 2014: $2,074,889). The Directors believe that the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. No adjustments have been made relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the consolidated Group not continue as a going concern.

The La Negra Option is registered in the Mortgages and Encumbrances Registry of the Custodian of Mines of Combarbalá.

  3. In March 2014 the Company notified each of the individual nine concession holders that it intended to give notice of its intention to withdraw from the Option Agreements entered into in March 2013. That agreement provided that by making staged, six monthly, optional payments totalling 679.5 million Chilean pesos (A$ 1.44 million at the then exchange rate) to the owners over a 3 year period from the date of signature it could earn a 100% interest. In withdrawing the Company no longer has any financial obligations nor the right to earn any interests. During the Prior Reporting Period the Company sought to renegotiate terms with the concession holders. These negotiations have been put on hold, given the shift of focus of the Company’s activities.

Accounting Policies

Segment revenues and expenses are those directly attributable to the segments. Segment assets include all assets used by a segment and consist principally of cash, receivables, exploration and evaluation expenditure and property, plant and equipment, net of allowances and accumulated depreciation and amortisation. While most such assets can be directly attributed to individual segments, the carrying amount of certain assets used jointly by two or more segments is allocated to the segments on a reasonable basis. Segment liabilities consist principally of payables, employee benefits, accrued expenses, provisions and borrowings. Segment assets and liabilities do not include deferred income taxes.

Intersegment Transfers

Segment revenues, expenses and results include transfers between segments. The prices charged on intersegment transactions are the same as those charged for similar goods to parties outside of the Company at an arm’s length. These transfers are eliminated on consolidation. At 31 December 2014 and 30 June 2014 there were no such intersegment transfers.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF RED GUM RESOURCES LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Red Gum Resources Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration for Red Gum Resources Limited (the consolidated entity). The consolidated entity comprises both Red Gum Resources Limited (the Company) and the entities it controlled during the half year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of Red Gum Resources Limited are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) 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 consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2014 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 Red Gum Resources Limited, 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.

Whilst we considered the effectiveness of management’s internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our review was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.

Our review did not involve an analysis of the prudence of business decisions made by the directors or management.

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation

==> picture [114 x 15] intentionally omitted <==

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , has been provided to the directors of Red Gum Resources Limited on 16 March 2015.

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 Red Gum Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2014 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standards AASB 134 I nterim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Inherent Uncertainty regarding Going Concern

Without qualification to the conclusion expressed above, attention is drawn to the following matters:

As referred to in note 5 to the financial statements, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. At 31 December 2014, the entity had cash and cash equivalents of $533,456 and net working capital of $471,305. The entity had incurred an operating loss for the six months ended 31 December 2014 of $2,080,517.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and meet its planned exploration, administration, and other commitments is dependent upon the Company raising further working capital, and/or successfully exploiting its mineral assets. In the event that the entity cannot raise further equity, the entity may not be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due and the realisable value of the consolidated entity’s non-current assets may be significantly less than book values.
