MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Overview

MinRex Resources NL (“MinRex”) is an exploration company, listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, with its principal focus being the exploration and development of gold, base metal and tin projects in Australia.

MinRex holds two projects, being the Deflector Extended Gold Project at Gullewa in Western Australia and the Heemskirk Tin Project in Tasmania (Figure 1). MinRex’s Deflector Gold Project lies to the north of Perth, within the Gullewa Greenstone Belt of the Murchison Goldfields, where deposits of gold-copper mineralisation in primary quartz-sulphide veins and secondary gold deposits in surface clays and laterite have been mined in proximity to the Project area. The Deflector Extended Gold Project is along strike from Doray Minerals Limited’s (“Doray”) Deflector Gold Project. On the 19[th] May 2015, Doray announced that their 400,000oz Au Project was approved for development, with work to commence soon on construction, mining and treatment at this high-grade gold/copper deposit.

The Heemskirk Tin Project is in coastal north-western Tasmania and has been the site of tin, tungsten and base metals prospecting and exploration activities, for over 140 years, with the most substantial exploration efforts having been at the Peripatetic Mine which consists of several adits and shafts and numerous small open pits.

Figure 1: Location of MinRex Project Areas

Deflector Gold Project

The Deflector Extended Gold Project (E59/1657) lies along a north-eastern extension of the Deflector mineralisation trend at the Gullewa Mining Centre. Doray Minerals Limited has recently reported ore reserves of 1.78Mt at 5.6g/t Au, 0.9% Cu and 6.3g/t Ag at their Deflector Gold Project, which lies about 5km to the SW of the MinRex tenement (E59/1657) (Figure 2).

Figure 2: Mutiny (Doray) plan showing prospects along trend towards MinRex’s E59/1657

The Deflector Extended Gold Project area is predominantly covered by transported soil, colluvium and alluvium; which effectively conceal any mineralisation present. The area has historically been explored by regional soil geochemistry, rock chip sampling and limited RAB and AC drilling. The completed exploration work is encouraging, especially the early geochemistry and drilling that shows some anomalous gold values within the tenement. However, previous soil sampling programs in E59/1657 did not include the along strike position from the Deflector deposit; although, wide-spaced RAB and aircore drilling was carried out in the past and a number of anomalous drill samples were returned from the area: including, 1m at 0.36ppm gold from 29m depth and 3m at 0.28ppm gold from 17m depth, both in aircore holes. The structure also lies in an area of little outcrop, runs along what seems to be a lithological boundary and/or a fault, and is also in proximity to the buried Salt Creek Fault – an interpreted major structure which lies below the alluvial sediments of Salt Creek. There are also two small circular magnetic highs in the area, of unknown provenance.

In the June 2015 Quarter, it was decided to test for gold mineralisation with a detailed soil sampling program, comprising samples collected at 50m spacing along lines at 200m intervals, across the structure and along its entire length within the MinRex tenement (Figure 3). The work was completed in April 2015. In all 76 samples were collected along nine lines, with these numbered DES001 – 076. The samples were taken from about 10cm depth and averaged about 1kg each in weight. Observations were made on the surface soil, scree and vegetation cover and probable underlying geology – most of the area is covered with red clay colluvium and abundant cobbles of metabasalt (mafic volcanic rocks), and hence the underlying geology is rarely visible.

The samples were analysed at the Bureau Veritas Laboratory at Canning Vale, in Perth, where they were pulverised and a 40gm subsample digested by Aqua Regia and analysed for gold, silver, arsenic, molybdenum, lead and zinc by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and for copper and nickel by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES).

The soil sample assay results are generally low, with highest results of 8ppb for gold, 0.05ppm for silver, 15.6ppm for arsenic, 1.4ppm for molybdenum, 18ppm for lead, 52ppm for copper, 56ppm for nickel and 38ppm for zinc – the full results were reported in the MinRex June 2015 Quarterly Report, released on the 29[th] July 2015. The maximum value for gold is 8ppb, which compares with earlier soil sampling results of up to 40ppb within the tenement, with only 8 out of 142 previous samples being this high. However, all of the best gold values in the earlier scout drilling are in the soil sampling area. The maximum copper value of 52ppm is in the upper range of all previous results with an earlier maximum of 68ppm from a total of 142 previous samples within the tenement. Earlier anomalous copper results in drill-holes were up to 460ppm and also fall mostly in this area.

MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report

When the results for copper and arsenic are plotted onto contour plans, there is an overlapping coincidence of the highest values in an approximately 400 x 100m zone (Figure 3). There is also a clear suggestion that the highest values lie close to the interpreted geological contact between the metabasalt and metasedimentary rock types and trend parallel to this contact. Vein quartz fragments and occasional outcrops are also seen along this trend line, possibly indicating faulting, and these provide a target for future rock sampling programs.

==> picture [390 x 258] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 4: Mutiny (Doray) plan of Deflector deposit on contact of mafic and sedimentary rocks

Metasedimentary rocks have not been noted in this area in any of the previous geological mapping work. The presence of these metasedimentary rocks demonstrates that this area probably lies along strike from the Deflector copper/gold deposit and occupies the same geological setting along the contact of metamafic and metasedimentary rocks and adjacent to the buried Gearless Well granite intrusion (Figure 4).

The results are seen as encouraging, as they demonstrate a concurrence of the highest copper and arsenic values, the geological contact and a possible fault zone, all within the same structure as the Deflector deposit. Consequently, MinRex is considering carrying out further work along this prospective contact/fault zone.

Heemskirk Tin Project

The Heemskirk Tin Project (E18/2011) is located in north-western Tasmania, to the WNW of the town of Zeehan. The granitic rocks of the Project area host multiple small deposits of tin, tungsten and base metals, some of which have been known for up to 140 years (Figure 5). MinRex has been exploring this area for tin-tungsten-base metal mineralisation through 2012-15. Previous MinRex exploration in the tenement includes rock chip and stream sediment sampling and a panned stream sediment sampling exercise, which was completed in the Area A quadrant during 2012 (Figure 6).

This year the panned concentrate stream sediment sampling was continued, with the Areas B and C being sampled in the June Quarter 2015 (Figure 6). The results from this sampling will allow assessment of the relevant drainage areas for possible hidden metal deposits.

MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report

The new stream sediment sampling commenced in mid-April 2015, with mobilisation to site and setting up of a campsite, and then continued (through wind, rain and snow) until completed on the 30[th] April 2015. The samples were dispatched to the Bureau Veritas Laboratory in Perth and a number of maps were prepared along with documentation on the sampling methodology and a number of photographs of the sampling sites, sampling work and general location (Figures 7, 8, 9 & 10).

==> picture [452 x 254] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 7: Terrain in Area B during the 2015 Sampling at the Heemskirk Tin Project

The stream sediment samples were collected from pre-planned sites on flowing streams by filling a 10lt bucket with a representative sample of gravel, sand and fine sediment. The samples were then sieved to remove the coarse fraction and then panned to concentrate the heavy mineral grains. The heavy mineral grains were then collected into a plastic sample bag, each with a unique identifying number, before being sealed and prepared for shipment to the sampling laboratory.

The 49 new samples from Area B and C were submitted and will be analysed by the same assay method as the first batch (from Area A) – to ensure consistency in the results. The assay results remain outstanding at the present time.

MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE

On 8 July 2015, the Company announced that it proposes to change its activities and acquire 100% of the share capital of Hello Real Estate Limited for $6.75 million in issued capital. The Company is currently preparing a Share Purchase Agreement for this purpose and is also preparing a Notice of General Meeting, where shareholders’ approval will be sought to approve of the change in activities and proposed acquisition. The change in activities and proposed acquisition are still the subject of regulatory approvals as well.

If the acquisition proceeds, the Company’s main activity will be changed from a junior explorer to a real estate company focused on providing professional real estate marketing services. This will most likely impact the usability of the unrecognised carry forward tax losses, as disclosed in note 5, for offset against future taxable income. However, management intends to continue the exploration activities of the areas of interest if the proposed acquisition is not approved.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On the assumption that shareholders approve of the transaction with Hello Real Estate Limited, which was announced to the market on 8 July 2015, the Company will change its activities from mineral exploration to that of real estate.

Given the current uncertainty surrounding the proposed transaction, it is not possible to accurately forecast the expected results of the Company over the next 12 months.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS AND PERFORMANCE

The Company holds participating interests in two exploration tenements. The various authorities granting such tenements require the tenement holder to comply with the terms of the grant of the tenement and all directions given to it under those terms of the tenement. There have been no known breaches of the Company's environmental conditions, and no such breaches have been notified by any government agencies during the year ended 30 June 2015.

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

The Company has made an agreement indemnifying all the Directors and officers of the Company against all losses or liabilities incurred by each Director or officer in their capacity as Directors or officers of the Company to the extent permitted by the Corporation Act 2001. The indemnification specifically excludes wilful acts of negligence. The Company paid insurance premiums in respect of Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance contracts for current officers of the Company. The liabilities insured are damages and legal costs that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may be brought against the officers in their capacity as officers of the Company. The total amount of insurance premiums paid has not been disclosed due to confidentiality reasons.

INDEMNIFICATION OF AUDITORS

To the extent permitted by law, the Company has agreed to indemnify its auditors, Ernst & Young, as part of the terms of its audit engagement agreement against claims by third parties arising from the audit (for an unspecified amount). No payment has been made to indemnify Ernst & Young during or since the financial year.

AASB 2014-1 Part C issued in June 2014 makes amendments to eight Australian Accounting Standards to delete their references to

condition' and 'service condition'.

AASB 3 - Clarifies the classification requirements for contingent consideration in a business combination by removing all
references to AASB 137.

AASB 8 - Requires entities to disclose factors used to identify the entity's reportable segments when operating segments have been
aggregated. An entity is also required to provide a reconciliation of total reportable segments' asset to the entity's total assets.

AASB 116 & AASB 138 - Clarifies that the determination of accumulated depreciation does not depend on the selection of the
valuation technique and that it is calculated as the difference between the gross and net carrying amounts.
AASB 124 - Defines a management entity providing KMP services as a related party of the reporting entity. The amendments added an
exemption from the detailed disclosure requirements in paragraph 17 of AASB 124 for KMP services provided by a management
entity. Payments made to a management entity in respect of KMP services should be separately disclosed.
AASB 2014-1
Part A -Annual
Improvements
2011–2013 Cycle
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011–2013 Cycle addresses the following items:

AASB13 - Clarifies that the portfolio exception in paragraph 52 of AASB 13 applies to all contracts within the scope of AASB 139
or AASB 9, regardless of whether they meet the definitions of financial assets or financial liabilities as defined in AASB 132.
AASB 140 - Clarifies that judgment is needed to determine whether an acquisition of investment property is solely the acquisition of an
investment property or whether it is the acquisition of a group of assets or a business combination in the scope of AASB 3 that includes
an investment property. That judgment is based on guidance in AASB 3.
Amendments to
Australian
Accounting
Standards - Part B
Defined Benefit
Plans: Employee
Contributions
(Amendments to
AASB 119)
AASB 2014-Part B makes amendments in relation to the requirements for contributions from employees or third parties that are set out
in the formal terms of the benefit plan and linked to service.
The amendments clarify that if the amount of the contributions is independent of the number of years of service, an entity is permitted
to recognise such contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered, instead of
attributing the contributions to the periods of service.
Amendments to
AASB 1053 –
Transition to and
between Tiers, and
related Tier 2
Disclosure
Requirements
[AASB 1053]
The Standard makes amendments to AASB 1053 Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards to:
• clarify that AASB 1053 relates only to general purpose financial statements;
• make AASB 1053 consistent with the availability of the AASB 108_Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and_
Errors_option in AASB 1_First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards;
• clarify certain circumstances in which an entity applying Tier 2 reporting requirements can apply the AASB 108 option in AASB
1; permit an entity applying Tier 2 reporting requirements for the first time to do so directly using the requirements in AASB 108
(rather that applying AASB 1) when, and only when, the entity had not applied, or only selectively applied, applicable recognition
and measurement requirements in its most recent previous annual special purpose financial statements; and
• specifycertain disclosure requirements when an entityresumes the application of Tier 2 reportingrequirements.

Company
AASB 9 Financial Instruments AASB 9 (December 2014) is a new Principal standard which replaces
AASB 139. This new Principal version supersedes AASB 9 issued in
December 2009 (as amended) and AASB 9 (issued in December 2010)
and includes a model for classification and measurement, a single,
forward-looking ‘expected loss’ impairment model and a substantially-
reformed approach to hedge accounting.
AASB 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2018. However, the Standard is available for early application. The own
credit changes can be early applied in isolation without otherwise
changing the accounting for financial instruments.
The final version of AASB 9 introduces a new expected-loss impairment
model that will require more timely recognition of expected credit losses.
Specifically, the new Standard requires entities to account for expected
credit losses from when financial instruments are first recognised and to
recognise full lifetime expected losses on a more timely basis.
Amendments to AASB 9 (December 2009 & 2010 editions and AASB
2013-9) issued in December 2013 included the new hedge accounting
requirements, including changes to hedge effectiveness testing, treatment
of hedging costs, risk components that can be hedged and disclosures.
AASB 9 includes requirements for a simpler approach for classification
and measurement of financial assets compared with the requirements of
AASB 139.
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
AASB 9 also removes the volatility in profit or loss that was caused by
changes in the credit risk of liabilities elected to be measured at fair
value. This change in accounting means that gains caused by the
deterioration of an entity’s own credit risk on such liabilities are no
longer recognised in profit or loss.
Consequential amendments were also made to other standards as a result
of AASB 9, introduced by AASB 2009-11 and superseded by AASB
2010-7, AASB 2010-10 and AASB 2014-1 – Part E.
AASB 2014-7 incorporates the consequential amendments arising from

Amendments to Australian
Accounting Standards –
Accounting for Acquisitions of
Interests in Joint Operations
[AASB 1 & AASB 11]
AASB 2014-3 amends AASB 11 to provide guidance on the accounting
for acquisitions of interests in joint operations in which the activity
constitutes a business. The amendments require:
(a) the acquirer of an interest in a joint operation in which the activity
constitutes a business, as defined in AASB 3_Business Combinations_, to
apply all of the principles on business combinations accounting in
AASB 3 and other Australian Accounting Standards except for those
principles that conflict with the guidance in AASB 11; and
(b) the acquirer to disclose the information required by AASB 3 and
other Australian Accounting Standards for business combinations.
This Standard also makes an editorial correction to AASB 11

AASB
2014-4
Clarification of Acceptable
Methods of Depreciation and
Amortisation (Amendments to
AASB 116 and AASB 138)
AASB 116 and AASB 138 both establish the principle for the basis of
depreciation and amortisation as being the expected pattern of
consumption of the future economic benefits of an asset.
The IASB has clarified that the use of revenue-based methods to
calculate the depreciation of an asset is not appropriate because revenue
generated by an activity that includes the use of an asset generally
reflects factors other than the consumption of the economic benefits
embodied in the asset.
The amendment also clarified that revenue is generally presumed to be
an inappropriate basis for measuring the consumption of the economic
benefits embodied in an intangible asset. This presumption, however,
can be rebutted in certain limited circumstances.
1 July 2016
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with
Customers
In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15_Revenue from Contracts with_
Customers, which replaces IAS 11_Construction Contracts_, IAS 18
Revenue_and related Interpretations (IFRIC_13 Customer Loyalty
Programmes, IFRIC 15_Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate,
IFRIC 18_Transfers of Assets from Customers_and SIC-31_Revenue—

Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services).
The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to
depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an
amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be
entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognises
revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following
steps:
(a) Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer
(b) Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
(c) Step 3: Determine the transaction price
(d) Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations
in the contract
(e) Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a
performance obligation
Early application of this standard is permitted.

Australian Accounting Standards (including Interpretations) arising
from the issuance of AASB 15.

and that the inclusion of immaterial information can inhibit the
usefulness of financial disclosures. The amendments also clarify that
companies should use professional judgment in determining where and

(d) Accounting policies

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty. The Company assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria to determine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Company has concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue arrangements. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Interest Income

Interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability.

Income Tax

The income tax expense (revenue) comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income).

Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the period as well unused tax losses.

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.

36

MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Receivables

Amounts receivable from third parties are carried at amortised cost. The recoverability of the debts is assessed at balance date and specific allowance is made for any doubtful accounts.

Mining Tenements and Mineral Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure

Mining tenements are carried at cost, less accumulated impairment losses.

Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the period in which the decision to abandon the area is made.

When production commences, the accumulated exploration, evaluation and development costs for the relevant area of interest are capitalised and amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

37

MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015

Depreciation and Amortisation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets is calculated using the straight line method, over their estimated useful lives to the economic entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

The straight line depreciation and amortisation rates used for each class of assets are as follows:

Plant and equipment 20%

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income.

Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed in profit and loss.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Accounts Payable

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Company. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 30- 45 days.

Contributed Equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

Costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown as a deduction from the equity proceeds, net of any income tax benefit.

Provisions

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

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expected liability.

Employee Benefits

Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the statement of financial position date are recognised in respect of 30 employees' services rendered up to statement of financial position date and measured at amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when leave is taken and

38

MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015

measured at the actual rates paid or payable. Liabilities for wages and salaries are included as part of other payables and liabilities for annual and sick leave are included as part of employee benefit provisions.

Long service leave

Liabilities for long service leave are recognised as part of the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees to the statement of financial position date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expect future salaries and wages levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using high quality corporate bond rates at the statement of financial position date with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

Goods and Services Tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.

Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

Segment Reporting

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

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, 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 the effect on revenues and expenses of conversion to Ordinary Shares associated with dilutive potential Ordinary Shares, by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares and dilutive Ordinary Shares adjusted for any bonus issue.

3. Segment Information

For management purposes, the Company is organized into one main operating segment, which involves mining and exploration for gold and other minerals. All of the Company’s activities are interrelated, and discrete financial information is reported to the Board (Chief Operating Decision Makers) as a single segment. Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of the Company as one segment. The financial results from this segment are equivalent to the financial statements of the Company as a whole. Total revenue earned by the Company is generated in Australia and all the Company’s non-current assets reside in Australia.

  1. On 8 July 2015, the Company announced that it proposes to change its activities and acquire 100% of the share capital of Hello Real Estate Limited, see note 18 for further details. If this transaction proceeds, the Company’s main activity will be changed from a junior explorer to a real estate company focused on providing professional real estate marketing services. The Directors consider this to be the most likely outcome and have not presently planned for the minimum exploration and evaluation expenditure, as disclosed in note 17, to go ahead. Given the circumstances, the Directors consider it prudent to write off the exploration, evaluation and development expenditure as it cannot be concluded that future benefits will be derived from these assets.

There is no impact on diluted loss per share of the 17,500,000 partly paid shares outstanding at 30 June 2015 because they are anti-dilutive. The partly paid shares could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future.

15.Financial Risk Management

Exposure to interest rate, liquidity and credit risk arises in the normal course of the Company’s business. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments.

The Company uses different methods as discussed below to manage risks that arise from these financial instruments. The objective is to support the delivery of the financial targets while protecting future financial security.

(a) Liquidity Risk

The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash facilities to meet the operating requirements of the business. The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors.

Maturity analysis for financial liabilities

Financial liabilities of the Company comprise trade and other payables. As at 30 June 2015 all financial liabilities are contractually matured within 30 days.

(b) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes to interest rate risk relates primarily to its earnings on cash.

Interest rate sensitivity

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity of the Company’s statement of comprehensive income to a reasonably possible change in variable interest rates, with all other variables constant.

A sensitivity of 100 basis points has been used as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both short term and long term Australian Dollar interest rates. The change in basis points is derived from a review of historical movements and management’s judgement of future trends.

(c) Credit Risk Exposures

Credit risk represents the risk that the counterparty to the financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the Company to incur a financial loss. The Company’s maximum credit exposure is the carrying amounts of financial assets in the statement of financial position.

At 30 June 2015, the Company held cash at bank. These were held with financial institution with a rating from Standard & Poors of AA or above (long term). The Company has no past due or impaired debtors as at 30 June 2015 (2014 Nil).

(d) Fair value

The carrying value of the financial instruments as at 30 June 2015 approximates their fair value due to their short term nature.

16. Contingent Liabilities

As at the date of this report, no contingent liabilities had been identified in relation to the financial year ended 30 June 2015.

17. Capital Commitments

The company’s minimum expenditure commitments in relation to its tenements are:

  • 1) Deflector Extended Gold project (E59/1657): $20,000

  • 2) Heemskirk Tin Project (EL 18/2011): $31,000

47

MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015

18. Events Subsequent to Reporting Date

On 8 July 2015, the Company announced that it proposes to change its activities and acquire 100% of the share capital of Hello Real Estate Limited for $6.75 million in issued capital. The Company is currently preparing a Share Purchase Agreement for this purpose and is also preparing a Notice of General Meeting, where shareholders’ approval will be sought to approve of the change in activities and proposed acquisition. The change in activities and proposed acquisition are still the subject of regulatory approvals as well.

If the acquisition proceeds, the Company’s main activity will be changed from a junior explorer to a real estate company focused on providing professional real estate marketing services. This will most likely impact the usability of the unrecognised carry forward tax losses, as disclosed in note 5, for offset against future taxable income. However, management intends to continue the exploration activities of the areas of interest if the proposed acquisition is not approved.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report.

In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view 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.
