Odyssey Energy Limited Financial Report for the Half Year Ended 31 December 2011
DIRECTORS' REPORT
==> picture [161 x 50] intentionally omitted <==
The Board of Directors of Odyssey Energy Limited present their report on the consolidated entity of Odyssey Energy Limited (“the Company” or “Odyssey”) and the entities it controlled during the half year ended 31 December 2011 (“Consolidated Entity”).

The names of the Directors of Odyssey in office during the half year and until the date of this report are:
Mr Ian Middlemas Mr Mark Pearce Mr David Cruse
REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Operating Results
Net operating loss after tax for the half year ended 31 December 2011 was $621,448 (half year ended 31 December 2010: $323,673).
The operating loss included the recognition of an impairment loss of $440,000 (half year ended 31 December 2010: $82,500) in relation to the Company’s investment in Marion Energy Limited, which is classified as an available for sale financial asset. Marion Energy did not lodge its 30 June 2011 Annual Financial Statements by 30 September 2011 and accordingly its securities were suspended from trading on the ASX with effect from 3 October 2011. Marion Energy has advised that they are working with consultants to examine a number of options for the restructure of the company and its financial position.
No further announcements have been made by Marion Energy updating the status of the restructure or financial position. The 30 June 2011 Financial Statements have still not been lodged and its securities remain suspended.
As a result the reduction in value of the shares has been treated as an impairment loss and has been recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income rather than being recognised directly in equity.
Review of Operations
During the half-year, Odyssey continued to focus on creating value from the Company’s existing resource assets, as well as pursuing new opportunities in the resources sector. Further. the company has reviewed a number of local and international new business opportunities in the oil and gas sector.
Following completion of the recapitalisation process during the first half of 2011, the Company is continuing the review of its current oil and gas project.
Operators in adjacent counties are currently developing the Woodford Shale as a liquids-rich gas play at depths from approximately 10,000 to 15,000+ feet.
The Company will continue to review and monitor industry activity in the adjacent counties over coming months and also consider the best method to extract value from its McClain County Project (“the Project”). However it is also noted that gas prices in the USA have declined sharply over recent months and are now in the US$2.30 to US$2.50 range.
McClain County Project
In mid-2008 Odyssey acquired a 50% working interest in a new project area in Oklahoma comprising 1,626 gross acres, and targeting gas and associated oil in the Woodford Shale at between 6,000 and 8,000 feet.
Industry activity in the second half of 2011 continued to target the developing Woodford shale-gas play in the Anadarko Basin. Operators in adjacent counties are currently developing the Woodford Shale as a liquidsrich gas play at depths from approximately 10,000 to 15,000+ feet.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (Continued)
==> picture [161 x 50] intentionally omitted <==
While drilling has now extended to Grady County – immediately west of McClain, the evaluation is currently focused on a liquids-rich play at considerably greater depths than the prospective section in the Company’s acreage; which is likely to be oil rather than gas prone.

Corporate
The Board and Management will continue to focus on creating value from the Company’s existing resource assets, as well as pursuing new opportunities in the resources sector to complement the Company’s current projects. During the period the Company assessed a number of new business opportunities and is continuing to actively pursue a number of opportunities in the resources sector, both domestic and overseas. No agreements have been reached and the Directors are not able to assess the likelihood or timing of a successful outcome of any of these opportunities.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS AFTER BALANCE DATE
At the date of this report there were no significant events occurring after balance date requiring disclosure.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This general purpose financial report for the interim half year reporting period ended 31 December 2011 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001 .
This interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report of Odyssey Energy Limited for the year ended 30 June 2011 and any public announcements made by Odyssey Energy Limited and its controlled entities during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
(a) Basis of Preparation of Half Year Financial Report
The condensed financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars.
The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half year financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the Company's annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2011, other than as detailed below.
In the current year, the Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011.

The Company holds 27.5 million Marion Energy Limited (“Marion Energy”) shares. The Company’s accounting policy is to record these at market value at period end.
Marion Energy did not lodge its 30 June 2011 Annual Financial Statements by 30 September 2011 and accordingly its securities were suspended from trading on the ASX with effect from 3 October 2011. Marion Energy announced on 14 October 2011 that they were working with consultants to examine a number of options for the restructure of the company and its financial position.
No further announcements have been made by Marion Energy updating the status of the restructure or financial position. The 30 June 2011 Financial Statements have still not been lodged and its securities remain suspended.
As a result, during the period an amount of $440,000 (half-year ended 31 December 2010: $82,500) has been recognised as an expense due to impairment in the value of these shares.

Yours sincerely

Independent Auditor’s Review Report to the Members of Odyssey Energy Limited
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Odyssey Energy Limited, which comprises the condensed statement of financial position as at 31 December 2011, and the condensed statement of comprehensive income, the condensed statement of cash flows and the condensed statement of changes in equity for the half-year ended on that date, selected explanatory notes and, the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the end of the half-year or from time to time during the half-year as set out on pages 4 to 13.
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 consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2011 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 Odyssey Energy 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.
Auditor’s Independence Declaration
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 , which has been given to the directors of Odyssey Energy Limited , would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

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 Odyssey Energy 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 2011 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 .
