Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder

I am pleased to be able to report a very positive result for CI Resources Limited (Company) following the successful completion of the takeover of Phosphate Resources Ltd in early January 2015. The Company has recorded a substantial profit for the year of $29 million after tax.

The takeover was effected by a scrip issue on equivalent terms which effectively resulted in a merger of the two entities. The ongoing operational management has remained unchanged with the merger, and the Board is now essentially a consolidation of the previous dual Boards.

DIVIDENDS

The Board has approved a continuation of our dividend policy by confirming a final fully franked dividend of 2.5 cents, and in light of the very strong results the Board has approved a “special dividend” of a further fully franked 2.5 cents per share. The record date for these dividends is the 28[th] September 2015 with payment to be made on 26[th] October 2015.

Our shares have recorded a 27.6% growth in the market sales price to the 30[th] June 2015 and the total of 7.5 cents in fully franked dividends approved amounts to an effective dividend yield of 9.73% on the closing market price at the end of the financial year.

DIVERSIFIED INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY

The Board has determined to continue pursuing investments in accord with its current "diversified industrial" strategy - in the sectors of phosphate, mining, infrastructure and land development, and agriculture. To assist in the evaluation of prospects we have approved a substantial increase in budget allocations for business development, and several opportunities are currently being considered. Whilst we continue to consider new opportunities our current primary area of operations remains on Christmas Island and we will continue to focus a large portion of our energies in this location.

MINING AREAS

The Board proposes to continue specific constructive engagement with the Commonwealth Government to obtain access to some additional small areas for mining on vacant Crown land outside the National Park.

These additional areas would sustain the Company’s viable mining operations by providing some additional commercial grade material and on current market parameters should allow an economic future for the Island community to the early 2030’s.

The Company understands the competing interests of the Commonwealth, however recognizes that a continuing viable mining operation is essential for current royalties to continue to provide significant financial contributions, for feral abatement and other preservation programs needed to maintain a fully representative environmental example of the unique island ecology. These activities are fundamental to ensure the benefits of the island and its culture are maintained for future generations enjoyment of the National Park, which comprises some 65% of the island.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

The Managing Director’s Report details our Financial Performance, and articulates some of the factors impacting on the groups’ future financial performance. The flexibility of the management team in pursuing both trading opportunities and service provision tenders on Christmas Island is noted with appreciation. The maintenance of continuing profitability in a depressed global growth environment is very dependent on the ability of an agile management team.

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Chairman’s Letter

The Board of the Company is confident that with the broad experience within the Company and a very sound financial underpinning, the Company is very well positioned to consider and consummate appropriate growth opportunities as they arise.

I finally take this opportunity on behalf of the Board to thank our employees, managers and executives for their contributions to both a successful outcome for the year and the development of a sound base in the Company which enables us to look positively towards our future.

Yours sincerely

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Managing Director’s Report

It is with pleasure that I table the CI Resources Ltd Annual Report for the financial year ending 30 June 2015.

This is the first report tabled on behalf of the fully consolidated group following the successful takeover of the balance of the shares in Phosphate Resources Ltd which was formally finalised on the 12[th] January 2015.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND PRODUCTION OVERVIEW

The Consolidated result was recorded as a profit after tax for FY 2015 of some $ 29 million with an after tax profit from mining alone of some $ 26 million. This was a significant improvement from the result in 2014.

Christmas Island operations were considerably improved with a final total product output of 671,000 tonnes an increase of 100,000 tonnes over the previous year. Even better results would have been achieved if critical Commonwealth owned port infrastructure which is overdue for replacement had not regularly failed.

Fortunately, our Malaysian and Singapore subsidiaries were able to ensure that we continued to fully service the requirements of our customers by taking advantage of some external trading opportunities resulting in total group sales of phosphate products reaching 718,000 tonnes.

An overall growth in palm oil production in Indonesia has kept demand for our products reasonably buoyant although increased competition from other producers has kept a downward pressure on prices. The significant and overdue correction in the Australian dollar value has fortunately shielded our results from the negative price outcome.

GROUP DEVELOPMENTS

Indian Ocean Oil Company Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Phosphate Resources Ltd, had been awarded the Commonwealth government contract for four years for the exclusive supply of Diesel fuel to the Christmas Island Power Station and to provide the diesel fuel requirements that arise for other Commonwealth entities operating out of Christmas Island.

This is a very significant contract which should enhance the revenues achieved by the group. Both the Mining operation and the Commonwealth will benefit from the logistics cost savings resulting from the combined supply chain.

CI Maintenance Services Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Phosphate Resources Ltd, which provides accommodation management and maintenance services to the Commonwealth Department of Immigration and Citizenship on the Island remains profitable but is being scaled down due to the reduction in immigration detention being conducted on Christmas Island.

RESOURCES AND PROJECTS

As the Chairman has noted our primary focus over the next few years will continue to be the maintenance of a viable mining operation on Christmas Island.

We have identified some limited additional areas of resource which would enable us to sustain operations at current levels in the medium term if we were granted access to them. As presently advised we are unaware of any scientific basis for an environmental refusal to grant approval to mine in these pockets but we propose to thoroughly research these matters before finalising any applications.

As we reported to Phosphate Resources Ltd shareholders last year it is our view that “the maintenance of a viable mining operation and the direct input of revenues it is able to provide towards comprehensive programmes aimed at eradicating invasive species will produce considerably more environmental benefits than locking up the entire island in a de facto National Park.”

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Managing Director’s Report

THE YEAR AHEAD

With the reduction in immigration activity and negligible tourism we are very mindful that our operations on Christmas Island are critical to the maintenance of the community on Christmas Island. Accordingly, we intend to try and enter mutually beneficial arrangements with the Commonwealth government to ensure that critical Island port infrastructure which impacts on our operational viability is maintained and necessary capital outlays for replacements are made in a timely manner.

To ensure long term viability and ongoing returns for shareholders we will continue to actively pursue other investment prospects where we can build on the collective expertise and experience contained in the company to grow our overall operations.

In closing I would thank the Board members and my senior managers and employees for their continued efforts and support.

The Directors note that current strategies suggest that the 2016 financial year will see the Consolidated Entity remain profitable.

Aside from the discretionary bonus disclosed in the remuneration report, no other link exists, at this stage in the Company’s development, between financial performance, shareholder wealth and the remuneration of Directors and Key Management Personnel.

Non-executive directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Remuneration & Nominations Committee and the committee makes recommendations to the Board. The Board also ensures nonexecutive directors’ fees and payments are appropriate and in line with the market as determined by comparison with companies of a similar size.

The directors are also remunerated for any additional services they render the Company and such services are carried out under normal commercial terms and conditions. Engagement and payment for such services are approved by the other directors with no interest in the engagement of such services.

Executive remuneration

The objective of the Consolidated Entity’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and conforms with market best practice for delivery of reward. The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:

  • competitiveness and reasonableness

  • acceptability to shareholders

  • performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation

  • transparency

  • capital management.

The Consolidated Entity has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complimentary to the reward strategy of the organisation.

Alignment to shareholders’ interests:

  • focuses on exploration success as the creation of shareholder value and returns

  • attracts and retains high calibre executives.

Alignment to program participants’ interests:

  1. rewards capability and experience

  2. reflects competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth

  3. provides a clear structure for earning rewards

  4. provides recognition for contribution.

The executive pay and reward framework has the following components:

  • Fixed remuneration (base salary, superannuation & other non-monetary benefits)

  • Variable Remuneration (incentives through participation in bonus arrangements)

The combination of these components comprises the executive’s total remuneration.

Fixed Remuneration

Corporate Governance Disclosures

CI Resources Limited has interests in phosphate assets in Australia and palm oil plantations in Malaysia. The Company is committed to protecting and enhancing shareholder value and adopting best practice governance policies and practices.

The Corporate Governance Statement outlines the main Corporate Governance practices that were in place throughout the financial year, which comply with the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations released by the ASX Corporate Governance Council (third edition).

The following summarises the eight recommended ASX Principles of Good Governance and the Company’s policies and procedures against each of the principles. Where a recommendation has not been followed, this is clearly stated along with an explanation for the departure.

Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management and oversight

The Board which currently consists of seven Directors of whom, four are non-independent directors.The Board and the Company act within a statutory framework – principally the Corporations Act and also the Constitution of the Company. Subject to this statutory framework, the Board has the authority and the responsibility to perform the functions, determine the policies and control the affairs of CI Resources Limited.

The Directors are aware of their responsibilities and obligations to protect shareholder's funds. Due care is taken to explain both the positive and negative aspects in all reports to highlight the inherent risks involved in the phosphate and palm oil plantations industry. The Board must ensure that the Company acts in accordance with prudent commercial principles and satisfies shareholders – consistent with maximising the Company’s long term value.

The Board of Directors determines the strategic direction of the Company by regularly monitoring and evaluating the performance and status of each of the Company's projects and activities. No formal evaluation of Board members took place this financial year.

  • To assist it in carrying out its responsibilities, the Board had two Board Committees as at 30 June 2015:

  • Audit, Risk Management& Investments Committee; and

  • Remuneration & Nomination Committee.

The Board has delegated the day to day management of CI Resources and its business to the Managing Director. The Managing Director is supported in this function by the Senior Executives. Each of the Senior Executives have a formal job description and employment contracts which describe their term of office, duties, rights and responsibilities and entitlements on termination. Formal performance evaluation of Senior Executives is conducted in July every year and was conducted in July 2015.

The Company secretary is accountable directly to the Board, through the Chairman, on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the Board.

Diversity Policy

CI Resources Limited recognises the value contributed to the organisation by employing people with varying skills, cultural backgrounds, ethnicity and experience. The Company believes its diverse workforce is the key to its continued growth, improved productivity and performance.

We actively value and embrace the diversity of our employees and are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone is treated equally and fairly, and where discrimination, harassment and inequity are not tolerated.

As at 30 June 2015 the Company has 18% proportion of females in employment and 11% of the Board executives and Company Secretaries are female. 32% of the Group’s managers are female.

A copy of the Diversity Policy can be found on the CI Resources website.

Corporate Governance Disclosures

Principle 2 – Structure the board to add value

The Board comprises of a Non-executive Chairman, one Executive Director and five Non-Executive Directors. Full details of the Company’s Board of Directors and their relevant experience and skills are detailed within the Directors’ Report. The Company’s Constitution requires that one third of the members of the Board retire by rotation each year but they are eligible for re-election.

Any new Director appointed holds office only until the next general meeting and is then eligible for re-election.

The Board will ensure that any such person to be appointed as a Director possesses an appropriate level of qualifications, expertise and experience. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee review the board composition annually to ensure it continues to have the right balance of skills, experience, independence and knowledge to discharge its responsibilities.

Under the Remuneration and Nomination Committee Charter, the Committee must have at least three members who are non-executive directors with a majority of whom are independent directors. The Chair of the Board must not be the Chair of the Committee.

Key terms and conditions relating to the appointment of non-executive directors are set out in a formal letter of appointment.

Principle 3 – Act ethically and responsibly

The Board place great emphasis on ethics and integrity in all its business dealings. In regards to principles 3.1, the Board considers the business practices and ethics exercised by individual board members and key executives to be of the highest standards.

The Board being committed to the highest standards of ethical business conduct has adopted a formal Code of Conduct to guide executives, management and staff in carrying out their duties and responsibilities. The Code is subject to ongoing review to ensure that the Company’s standards of behaviour and corporate culture reflect best practice in corporate governance. The Code is based on the following key principles:

  • ♦ acting with honesty and integrity

  • ♦ abiding by laws and regulations

  • ♦ respecting confidentiality and handling information in a proper manner

  • ♦ maintaining the highest standards of professional behaviour

  • ♦ avoiding conflicts of interest

  • ♦ striving to be a good corporate citizen and to achieve community respect.

CI Resources Limited also has a number of specific policies on various legal and ethical issues. These policies are designed to foster and maintain ethical business conduct within the Company, and govern such things as workplace and human resources practices, handling of confidential information, insider trading, risk management and legal compliance.

A formal securities trading policy has been adopted, lodged and released to the market. This is to ensure compliance with the “insider trading” provisions of the Corporations Act by executive staff who may be in possession of sensitive information concerning the Company’s affairs, prior to release to the market.

In addition, the Board has guidelines dealing with disclosure of interests by Directors in participating and voting at Board meetings where any such interests are discussed. In accordance with the Corporations Act, any Director with a material personal interest in a matter being considered by the Board must not be present when the matter is being considered, and may not vote on the matter.

A copy of, the Corporate Code of Conduct and the securities trading policy can be found on the CI Resources website.

Principle 4 – Safeguard integrity in financial reporting

The Board has established an Audit, Risk Management & Investment Committee (ARIC). The ARIC’s primary function is to ensure that an effective internal control framework exists within the Company. This includes internal controls to deal with both the effectiveness and efficiency of significant business processes, including the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records, the reliability of financial information and oversight of investment opportunities.

The Chairman and Company Secretaries are authorised to communicate with shareholders and the market in relation to Board approved disclosures. The Chairman and Company Secretaries are responsible for ensuring compliance with the continuous disclosure to the Australian Securities Exchange, analysts, broker, shareholders, the media and the public.

The continuous disclosure requirements are set out in the ASX Listing rules. The rules require the Company to immediately notify the ASX of any information concerning the Company, which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price of securities. When considering the disclosure of information due consideration should also be given to the exemptions (carve outs) granted under the ASX listing rules in respect of continuous disclosure.

The Company shall disclose:

  • ♦ All information that is required to be disclosed pursuant to ASX Listings Rules.

  • ♦ The Board, collectively, has primary responsibility for ensuring that the company complies with its disclosure obligations.

  • ♦ The Board will monitor news sources and seek to avoid the emergence of a false market in the company’s securities. However, it is recognised that this may not be possible pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 3.1.B.

  • ♦ The confidentiality of corporate information will be safeguarded to avoid premature disclosure.

  • ♦ The Company Secretaries are appointed as the Disclosure Officer in compliance with ASX Listing Rules. All directors and employees must immediately inform the Disclosure Officer if they obtain material information.

A copy of the Continuous Disclosure Policy can be found on the CI Resources website.

Principle 8 – Remunerate fairly and responsibly

The Board has established the Remuneration & Nomination Committee on 9 March 2015. The Committee operates under a formal Remuneration & Investment Committee Charter which is published on the Company’s website. The role of the Committee is to review and assist the Board to determine and review compensation arrangements for the Directors, the Managing Director, and Senior Executives. The Directors fees are determined by the Company in general meetings and other consulting services are remunerated at levels agreed by the Board of Directors. Access is available to the Company’s auditors and senior managers, and the ability to consult independent experts when necessary.

In relation to non-executive directors, there are presently no schemes for termination or retirement benefits, other than statutory superannuation.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments AASB 9 (December 2014) is a new standard which
replaces AASB 139. This new 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 adoption. The own credit changes can be early
adopted in isolation without otherwise changing the
accounting for financial instruments.
Classification and measurement
AASB 9 includes requirements for a simpler approach for
classification and measurement of financial assets
compared with the requirements of AASB 139. There are
also some changes made in relation to financial liabilities.
The main changes are described below.
Financial assets
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.
Financial liabilities
Changes introduced by AASB 9 in respect of financial
liabilities are limited to the measurement of liabilities
designated at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) using
the fair value option.
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 or losses attributable to
changes in the entity’s own credit risk would be recognised
in OCI. These amounts recognised in OCI are not recycled

to profit or loss if the liability is ever repurchased at a

Impairment
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.
Hedge accounting
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.
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 the issuance of AASB 9 in Dec 2014.
AASB 2014-8 limits the application of the existing versions
of AASB 9 (AASB 9 (December 2009) and AASB 9
(December 2010)) from 1 February 2015 and applies to
annual reporting periods beginning on after 1 January 2015.
AASB 2014-3 Amendments to Australian
Accounting Standards –
Accounting for Acquisitions
of Interests in Joint
Operations
[AASB 1 & AASB 11]
AASB 2014-3 amends AASB 11_Joint Arrangements_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.

_Intangible Assets_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.

Construction of Real Estate,_Interpretation 18_Transfers of

_Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services_and
Interpretation 1042_Subscriber Acquisition Costs in the

Telecommunications Industry). AASB 15 incorporates the
requirements of IFRS 15_Revenue from Contracts with_
_Customers_issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board (IASB) and developed jointly with the US
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).
AASB 15 specifies the accounting treatment for revenue
arising from contracts with customers (except for contracts
within the scope of other accounting standards such as
leases or financial instruments).The core principle of AASB
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

AASB 2015-1 Amendments to Australian
Accounting Standards –
Annual Improvements to
Australian Accounting
Standards 2012–2014 Cycle
The subjects of the principal amendments to the Standards
are set out below:
AASB 5_Non-current Assets Held for Sale and_
Discontinued Operations:

Changes in methods of disposal – where an
entity reclassifies an asset (or disposal group)
directly from being held for distribution to
being held for sale (or visa versa), an entity
shall not follow the guidance in paragraphs
27–29 to account for this change.
AASB 7_Financial Instruments: Disclosures:

Servicing contracts - clarifies how an entity
should apply the guidance in paragraph 42C of
AASB 7 to a servicing contract to decide
whether a servicing contract is ‘continuing
involvement’ for the purposes of applying the
disclosure requirements in paragraphs 42E–
42H of AASB 7.

Applicability of the amendments to AASB 7 to
condensed interim financial statements -
clarify that the additional disclosure required
by the amendments to AASB 7_Disclosure–

Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities_is not specifically required for all
interim periods. However, the additional
disclosure is required to be given in condensed
interim financial statements that are prepared
in accordance with AASB 134_Interim

Financial Reporting_when its inclusion would
be required by the requirements of AASB 134.
AASB 119_Employee Benefits
:

Discount rate: regional market issue - clarifies
that the high quality corporate bonds used to
estimate the discount rate for post-employment
benefit obligations should be denominated in
the same currency as the liability. Further it
clarifies that the depth of the market for high
quality corporate bonds should be assessed at
the currency level.
AASB 134_Interim Financial Reporting:_

Disclosure of information ‘elsewhere in the
interim financial report’ - amends AASB 134
to clarify the meaning of disclosure of
information ‘elsewhere in the interim financial
report’ and to require the inclusion of a cross-

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

  • (c) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of CI Resources Limited (“company” or “parent entity”) as at 30 June 2015 and the results of its subsidiaries for the financial year then ended. Interests in associates are equity accounted.

CI Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group or Consolidated Entity.

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group.

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has exposed, or has rights to variable return from its involvement in the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those return through its control.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances, transactions, unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends have been eliminated in full.

All controlled entities have a June financial year-end.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group.

Investments in subsidiaries held by CI Resources Limited are accounted for at cost in the separate financial statements of the parent entity less any impairment charges. Dividends received from subsidiaries are recorded as a component of other revenues in the separate income statement of the parent entity, and do not impact the recorded cost of the investment. Upon receipt of dividend payments from subsidiaries, the parent will assess whether any indicators of impairment of the carrying value of the investment in the subsidiary exist. Where such indicators exist, to the extent that the carrying value of the investment exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting involves recognising at acquisition date, separately from goodwill, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at their acquisition date fair values.

The difference between the above items and the fair value of the consideration (including the fair value of any pre-existing investment in the acquiree) is goodwill or a discount on acquisition.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.

37

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

Non-controlling interests are allocated their share of net profit after tax in the statement of comprehensive income and are presented within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent.

Losses are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest and other components of equity while any resultant gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment retained is recognised at fair value.

  • (d) Income tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. 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 is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet 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.

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.

  • (e) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of mining stocks includes direct materials, direct labour, transportation costs and variable and fixed overhead costs relating to mining activities. Overheads are applied on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(f) Property, plant and equipment

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

Property

Freehold land and buildings are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation on buildings.

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by the directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets (refer to note 2(l) for accounting policy on recoverable amount).

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the economic entity includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

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 group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including building and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land are depreciated on a straight line or diminishing balance basis over their useful lives to the economic entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciation assets are:

Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate
Leasehold and strata title properties Shorter of the lease
and 2%
Plant and equipment under lease:
- the shorter of the lease term and life span 20 – 30%
Plant and equipment 5 – 40%
Mine properties Life of mine

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement.

(g) Mining tenements and exploration expenditure

Costs incurred during exploration and evaluation activities related to an area of interest are accumulated at cost.

Such costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area of interest, or alternatively its sale, or where activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active operations are continuing.

Accumulated costs in relation to abandoned areas of interest are written off in full in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.

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.

39

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

  • (h) Mine properties

Costs incurred prior to the startup of operations or mining assets acquired are accumulated at cost. Such costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful exploitation of the known reserves.

Impairment

The carrying amount of mine properties is reviewed annually by the directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount of these assets (refer to note 2(l) for accounting policy on recoverable amount).

(i) Restoration

Estimated rehabilitation expenditure is recognised as a provision 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.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, the amounts are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

The amortisation or ‘unwinding’ of the discount applied in establishing the net present value of provision is charged to the income statement in each accounting period, and is disclosed as a financing costs.

Other changes in the measurement of an existing restoration obligation that result from changes in the estimated timing or amount of future costs, or a change in the discount rate, are recognised as an adjustment to the restoration asset.

(j) Leases

Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership that are transferred to entities in the economic entity are classified as finance leases.

Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the economic entity will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of the lease.

Lease payments of operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straightline basis over the life of the lease term.

  • (k) Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used by the Group to provide an economic hedge of exposures to exchange rates. The consolidated entity does not apply hedge accounting and accordingly all fair value movements on derivative financial instruments are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

Derivative financial instruments are stated at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered

40

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. Derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value is positive and as liabilities when their fair value is negative. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.

The fair values of forward currency contracts are calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.

(l) Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill

At each reporting date, the company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.

Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Company 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 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 assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

  • (m) Intangibles

Goodwill

Goodwill is initially recorded at the amount by which the purchase price for a business or for an ownership interest in a controlled entity exceeds the fair value attributed to the identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition.

Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are not subsequently reversed.

Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

Research and Development

Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies indicate that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.

  • (n) Foreign currency transactions and balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the group’s entities is determined by reference to the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.

41

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the income statement.

Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group’s presentation currency are translated as follows:

  • Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date.

  • Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed.

(o) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other shortterm highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

(p) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables, which generally have 30 to 90 day terms, are carried at nominal amounts due less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An allowance for doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written-off when identified.

Receivables from related parties are recognised and carried at the nominal amount due. An estimate for doubtful debts is considered based on the financial position of the related party.

(q) Trade and other payables

Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.

(r) Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. This includes start up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will

42

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the board of directors.

Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers — being the executive management team.

The group aggregates two or more operating segments when they have similar economic characteristics, and

the segments are similar in each of the following respects:

  • Nature of the products and services

  • Nature of the production processes

  • Type or class of customer for the products and services

  • Methods used to distribute the products or provide the services, and if applicable

  • Nature of the regulatory environment

Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 are reported separately.

However, an operating segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about the segment would be useful to users of the financial statements.

Information about other business activities and operating segments that are below the quantitative criteria are combined and disclosed in a separate category for “all other segments”.

(s) Business Combination

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination shall be measured at fair value, which shall be calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of the assets transferred by the acquirer, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the equity issued by the acquirer, and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the acquirer measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred, and included in administrative expenses.

When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the Group’s operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through profit or loss.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer will be recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or liability will be recognised in accordance with AASB 139 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it should not be remeasured until it is finally settled within equity.

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

  • (t) Revenue

Sale of goods

Revenue is recognised when there has been a passing of the significant risks and rewards of ownership, which means the following:

  • The product is in a form suitable for delivery and no further processing is required by or on behalf of the consolidated entity;

  • The quantity and quality of the product can be determined with reasonable accuracy;

  • The product has been despatched to the customer and is no longer under the physical control of the consolidated entity;

  • The selling price can be measured reliably;

  • It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the

  • consolidated entity; and

  • The costs incurred, or expected to be incurred, in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Interest

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

Rendering of services

Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract.

Dividends

Revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established.

  • (u) Government grants

Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with.

When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate.

When the grant relates to an asset, the fair value is credited to a deferred income account and is released to the income statement over the expected useful life of the relevant asset by equal annual installments.

  • (v) Employee benefits

Provision is made for the Company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees up until balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.

  • (w) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

44

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

(x) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in income during the period in which they are incurred.

(y) Plantation development costs

Costs incurred on land clearing are capitalised as plantation development costs and is amoritsed over the economic useful life of the asset (25 years). Costs on the concession lease with a term of 60 years are capitalised and amortised over the remaining term of lease.

(z) Biological assets

Biological assets which include mature and immature oil palm plantations are stated at fair value less estimated point of sale costs except when the fair value cannot be measured reliably. In this instance, the biological assets are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses until such time as its fair value can be reliably measured.

Fresh fruit bunches (which are subsequently milled to become palm oil) is the harvested product of a biological asset and is measured at its fair value less estimated point of sale costs at the point of harvest.

Net movement in fair value less estimated point of sale costs of biological assets are included in the statement of comprehensive income in the year they arise.

(aa) Term deposit

Term deposits which have a maturity of less than twelve months are shown in current assets. Term deposits which are held to fund employee benefits stated and demolition and restoration costs are shown in non current assets.

(ab) Goods and services tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office is included with other receivables or payables in the balance sheet.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the Australian Taxation Office, are presented as operating cash flow.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australia Taxation Office.

(ac) Financial instruments

Recognition

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value, which includes transaction costs, when the contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.

45

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the consolidated entity provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the statement of financial position date which are classified as non-current assets and carried at amortised cost. Loans and receivables are included in receivables in the statement of financial position.

Financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal repayments and amortisation.

Impairment

The Consolidated Entity assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired.

(ad) Investments in associates

Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost. The Group’s investment in associates includes goodwill (net of any accumulated impairment loss) identified on acquisition.

The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. Dividends receivable from associates are recognised in the parent entity’s income statement, while in consolidated financial statements they reduce the carrying amount of the investment.

When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

(ae) Contributed equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

(af) Comparative figures

Where required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for the current financial year.

46

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

(ag) Earnings per share

(i) Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the consolidated entity, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.

(ii) Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(ah) Impairment of assets

Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).

3. Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Assessment of mine life on Christmas Island

The Financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the resource supports continued operations for at least 5 years on the current market parameters and expectations.

Determination of mineral resources and ore reserves

The Group’s policy for estimating its mineral resources and ore reserves requires that the Australian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves 2004 (the ‘JORC code’) be used as a minimum standard. The information on mineral resources and ore reserves were prepared by or under the supervision of Competent Persons as defined in the JORC code. The amounts presented are based on the mineral resources and ore reserves determined under the JORC code.

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral resources and ore reserves and assumptions that are valid at the time of estimation may change significantly when new information becomes available.

Changes in the forecast prices of commodities, exchange rates or production costs may change the economic status of resources and may, ultimately, result in the resources being restated. Such changes in resources could impact on depreciation and amortisation rates, asset carrying values and provisions for decommissioning and restoration.

The carrying amounts 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:

47

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

Impairment of property, plant and equipment

Property, 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 future cash flows of the relevant cash generating unit) and ‘fair value less costs to sell’.

In determining value in use, future cash flows are based on:

  • Estimates of the quantities of ore reserves and mineral resources;

  • Future production levels;

  • Future commodity prices and foreign exchange rates; and

  • Future cash costs of production and capital expenditure.

Variations to the expected future 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.

Provisions for decommissioning and restoration costs

Decommissioning and restoration costs are a normal consequence of mining and the majority of this expenditure is incurred at the end of a mine’s life. In determining an appropriate level of provision consideration is given to the expected future costs to be incurred, the timing of these expected future costs (largely dependent on the life of the mine), the appropriateness of the discount rate and the estimated future level of inflation.

The ultimate cost of decommissioning and restoration is uncertain and costs can vary in response to many factors including changes to the relevant legal requirements or the emergence of new restoration techniques. The expected timing of expenditure can also change, for example in response to changes in reserves or to production rates.

Changes to any of the estimates could result in significant changes to the level of provisioning required, which would in turn impact future financial results.

Fair value of biological assets

The fair value of the oil palm plantations is estimated by reference to independent professional valuations using the discounted cash flows of the underlying biological assets. The expected cash flows from the whole life cycle of the oil palm plantations is determined using the market price and the estimated yield of the agricultural produce, being FFB, net of maintenance and harvesting costs and any costs required to bring the oil palm plantations to maturity. The estimated yield of the oil palm plantations is dependent on the age of the oil palm trees, location of the plantations, soil type and infrastructure. The market price of FFB is largely dependent on the prevailing market prices of crude palm oil and palm kernel.

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

This deferred tax asset will only be obtained if:

  • (a) future assessable income is derived of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the

  • benefit to be realised;

  • (b) the conditions for deductibility imposed by tax legislation continue to be complied with; and

  • (c) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the consolidation entity in realising the benefit.

The entity has made non-current provisions for decommissioning and restoration of $9,904,000 (2014: $9,304,000) and employee redundancies of $8,982,000 (2014: $8,153,000). The future income tax benefit relating to the provision for decommissioning and restoration and the provision for employee redundancy is not probable of being fully recovered, as it is believed that when the provisions are required the entity may not have future taxable income to utilise the tax benefit.

CI Resources Limited and its wholly owned controlled entities have not entered into a tax consolidation agreement.

There are no instruments (e.g., share options) excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future because they are antidilutive for either of the periods presented.

There have been no transactions involving ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares that would significantly change the number of ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares outstanding between the reporting date and the date of completion of these financial statements.

Goodwill acquired through business combination has been allocated to the Palm Oil Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”), which is also a reporting and operating segment for impairment testing. The net carrying amount of Goodwill at 30 June 2015 was $7,158,000 (2014: $7,158,000) which includes an accumulated impairment charge of nil during the year (2014: nil).

The recoverable amount of the Farming CGU has been determined using a value in use calculation using cash flow projections. The pre-tax discount rates applied to cash flow projections is 10.0% (2014: 10.5%) and the

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

cash flows are based on the financial budget approved by management for the upcoming year and applying a growth rate of 3.1% p.a (2014: 2.1%) for the following 4 years and a terminal value.

With regard to the assessments of the value in use of the Farming CGU, management believe that no reasonably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cause the carrying value of the unit to materially exceed its recoverable amount.

Biological assets consist of mature oil palm trees. The Group grows oil palm trees to produce palm oil. The plantation is located in Malaysia. At 30 June 2015 the group held oil palm trees on approximately 1,643 hectares of land.

A valuation was conducted by an independent professional valuer, on a subsidiary's oil palm estate development comprising land, ancillary facilities and biological assets, for the purposes of revaluing the biological assets of the subsidiary as at 30 June 2015. Significant assumptions applied in the determination of fair value are:

2015 2014
Average remaining life of oil palm trees 8 9
Average annual yield per hectare 20 25
Average life span of trees (years) 25 25
Pre tax discount rate 10.0% 10.5%
Fresh Fruit Bunch (FFB) price (RM per tonne) 453 485
Annual rate of inflation 3.1% 2.1%

The Group is exposed to risks in respect of agricultural activity. The agricultural activity of the Group consists of the plantation development and cultivation of palm products.

The primary risk associated with this activity occurs due to the length of time between expending cash on the purchase of planting and maintenance of oil palm plantation and in harvesting, and ultimately receiving cash from sale of palm oil to third parties. The Group's strategy to manage this risk is to stage the replanting (20-30 year replanting cycle) to reduce the effect on the cash flow.

These contracts are fair valued by comparing the contracted rate to the market rates for contracts with the same length of maturity. All movements in fair value are recognised in profit or loss in the period they occur. The net fair value losses on foreign currency derivatives during the year were $0.515 million for the Group (2014: gain of $1.449 million).

The group uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise:

Level 1: the fair value is calculated using quoted price in active markets;

Level 2: the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are

observable for the assets or liability, either directly (as price) or indirectly (derived from prices); and

Level 3 : the fair value is estimated using inputs for the assets or liability that are not based on observable market data.

28. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, finance leases, cash and short-term deposits, long-term deposits, interest bearing loans and borrowings, and foreign exchange derivatives.

Market, liquidity and credit risk (including foreign exchange, commodity price and interest rate risk) arise in the normal course of the Group’s business.

  • The Group manages its exposure to key financial risks, including interest rate, currency and commodity risk in accordance with the Group's risk management procedures. The overall objective of these procedures is to: • Ensure that net cash flows are sufficient to meet all financial commitments as and when they fall due.

  • Support the delivery of the Group's financial targets whilst protecting future financial security.

  • • Minimise the potential adverse effects resulting from volatility on financial markets.

The Group continually monitors its forecast financial position against these criteria.

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

It is, and has been throughout the period under review, Group policy that no speculative trading in financial instruments be undertaken

(i) Interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s long term debt obligations. Interest rate risk on cash and short term deposits is not considered to be a material risk due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.

The interest rates for term deposits are fixed and there is no material risk for interest bearing assets. There is no other financial asset or liability bearing interest rate risk except for interest bearing loans and borrowings, the sensitivity of which is disclosed below.

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the reporting date:

At 30 June 2015, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit and equity would have been affected as follows:

Higher/(Lower) Higher/(Lower)
2015 2014
$’000s $’000s
Judgments of reasonably possible movements:
Post tax profit
+1.0% (100 basis points) - 561
-1.0% (100 basis points) - (561)

Reasonable possible movements in interest rates were determined based on the Group’s mix of debt in Australia and foreign countries, relationship with financial institutions and review of last two years’ historical movements and economic forecaster’s expectations.

CI Resources, both parent and group, is exposed to interest rate risks in Australia. To minimise the effects of the potential adversities, the management attempt to limit these effects through constant reviewing of the financial markets.

(ii) Liquidity Risk

The Group’s liquidity position is managed to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet its financial commitments in a timely and cost effective manner.

Management monitors the Group’s liquidity reserve on the basis of expected cash flow. The table below reflects a balanced view of cash inflows and outflows and shows the implied risk based on those values. Trade payables and other financial liabilities originate from the financing of assets used in the Group’s ongoing operations. These assets are considered in the Group's overall liquidity risk.

Management continually reviews the Group liquidity position including cash flow forecasts to determine the forecast liquidity position and maintain appropriate liquidity levels.

(iii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a contracting entity will not complete its obligation under a financial instrument that will result in a financial loss to the Group. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the consolidated entity to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits and receivables. The Group places its cash deposits and derivatives with high creditquality financial institutions. Receivables balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the results that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant.

(iv) Derivative instruments and foreign currency risk

The Group’s future revenues are exposed to movements in foreign exchange rates, particularly the US dollar/Australian dollar rate. The Group may from time to time enter into foreign exchange derivative instruments to manage this exposure.

The Group has, as outlined in note 16, forward currency contracts designated as held for trading that are subject to fair value movements through profit or loss as foreign exchange rates move.

65

Annual Report – 30 June 2015

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2015

At 30 June 2015, had the Australian Dollar moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit and equity would have been affected as follows:

Judgments of reasonably possible movements: Post tax profit and equity
Higher/Lower
2015 2014
$’000s $’000s
Consolidated
AUD/USD + 10% 1,365 -
AUD/USD - 10% (2,581) -

Management believes the balance date risk exposures are representative of the risk exposure inherent in the financial instruments.

  • Significant assumptions used in the foreign currency exposure sensitivity analysis include:

  • Reasonably possible movements in foreign exchange rates were determined based on a review of the last two years historical movements.

  • The net exposure at balance date is representative of what the Group was and is expecting to be exposed to in the next twelve months from balance date.

(v) Fair values

The Directors have performed a review of the financial assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2015 and have concluded that the fair value of those assets and liabilities are not materially different to book values. The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments were:

  • Cash - The carrying amount is fair value due to the liquid nature of these assets.

  • Receivables/payables - due to the short term nature of these financial rights and obligations, and/or market interest received/paid, their carrying values are estimated to represent their fair values.

  • Derivatives - The fair values of forward currency contracts are calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.

  • Finance lease liability – The fair value is the present value of minimum lease payments.

  • Bank loan – All the bank loans of the Group are interest bearing with floating interest rates which move in accordance with the market interest rates. Therefore the fair value of the bank loans approximates their carrying value.

  • Term deposits – The carrying values of term deposits represent the fair values.

Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide shareholders and stakeholders in the future and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

Management are constantly adjusting the capital structure as suitable. As the market is constantly changing, management may change the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.

Management have no current plans to issue further shares on the market.
