Managing Director’s Report
I am delighted to provide my Managing Director’s report for CI Resources for the financial year ending 30 June 2021.
I would first like to recognise and thank our dedicated employees across the Company’s subsidiaries who have worked hard and safely to meet customer expectations and continued to deliver quality products and services. Also, to our shareholders who have remained committed to the long-term vision of the Company in this our 31st year of operations. Thank you for your support.
Market Conditions
CI Resources and its core subsidiary Phosphate Resources Ltd (PRL) experienced an improvement in market conditions during the financial year ending 30 June 2021, despite the continuing COVID pandemic impacts on logistics (particularly freight) and labour availability in our key phosphate markets of South East Asia. These green shoots have resulted in an increased demand for our quality fertiliser products.
Our proximity to ports in the region, along with the flexibility afforded by the recently acquired vessel MV Red Titan has also improved our competitive position against suppliers from the Middle East and North Africa. While we welcome these improving conditions, the situation in the region remains unpredictable given the impact of the COVID variant,
with shipping costs and availability continuing to put pressure on operations so we need to be cautious.
The outlook for the phosphate and the fertiliser market generally in 2022, as confirmed by the March 2021 World Bank Commodities Market Report, envisages a slight pull back from the recent growth in demand and price across the fertilisers market. Longer term the demand picture remains positive helped by expected growth globally in crop yields to feed the growing global population and the use of biofuels as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. The industry also continues to work towards higher standards of sustainability through MSPO (Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil) and RSPO Certification (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil).

Financial Performance and Production Overview
In the context of these conditions, the consolidated result was an improvement on last year recording a profit before tax for FY 2021 of some $9.5M, compared to the prior year of $0.2M.
Group sales of Phosphate, including external trading, increased to 525,000 tonnes compared to 387,000 in the prior year.
A heavy monsoon season, as a result of La Nina, impacted on our ability to load ships during the traditional Island swell season in early 2021. Nevertheless, there were less shutdowns than experienced in the previous year, mainly due to the lift in customer demand. The significant restructure of the PRL fertiliser operations in 2020 has continued to have a positive impact on our operating cost and flexibility. These measures proved essential in ensuring the operations managed costs despite the difficult operational conditions, and as a result we have seen an increase in profitability at a group level.
Additionally, CI Resources has continued to invest capital to improve systems, infrastructure and

training on Christmas Island making improvements in our production processes and pleasingly in our safety statistics. Further, appropriate currency hedging measures have offset currency volatility and provided earning visibility. These measures have enabled the fertiliser operations to continue to reduce its breakeven sales volume as we improve operational efficiencies, increase flexibility and customer responsiveness.

CI Maintenance Services
Christmas Island Maintenance Services (CIMS), a wholly-owned subsidiary, continues to demonstrate the Company’s success in executing our long-term diversification strategy.
CIMS has been focused on building its capabilities and service delivery to the Commonwealth in the provision of staff accommodation, concierge and facilities management services for the Commonwealth Detention Centre assets on Christmas Island.
Unfortunately, a recent decision by Department of Home Affairs to reinstate Serco into that role at the NWPIDC, to align with mainland Operational Settings has been disappointing, however this does not impact upon facility management services for other facilities outside of the NWPIDC.
CIMS continues to pursue other opportunities to grow its business in the Indian Ocean Territories and on the mainland.
Diversification Strategy
We have been working hard to further diversify our business, exploring investment opportunities on Christmas Island, in the region and across our global value chain.
Our subsidiaries on Christmas Island including CIMS and Indian Ocean Oil Company, continue to contribute strongly to earnings diversification.
On Christmas Island we are undertaking a due diligence process into an agritourism investment, building upon our earlier investment into Island Fresh joint venture.
We have also completed a process of Master Planning and Pre-Feasibility for a significant tourism development on the Island to position PRL to take advantage of the long-term eco-tourism potential of the Island.
With the support of a grant from the Regional Development Organisation (RDO) we have produced a construction ready design for a 27 km mountain bike track and a feasibility study. We are seeking further support from the Commonwealth through the Building Better Regions Program, for funds to build and operate the track and facilities and create a new tourism product to tap into the exponential growth of this market globally.
In late 2020 we submitted an EOI for a 1-Megawatt Solar Farm Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) to the Commonwealth, to supply renewable energy to the Indian Ocean Territories Power Authority. We are further investigating how we best leverage solar energy for our own purposes. While the process of assessment has been delayed, we expect the RFP to be issued later this year and are committed to a renewable future for Christmas Island.
Globally we have continued to build our downstream fertiliser operations in Malaysia with significant investment planned in new fertiliser product manufacture and storage. Further our recently announced controlling stake in Swiss logistics company Kemoil positions the company well to diversify earnings into the high grow West African oil market.
Our Place in the Christmas Island Community
The Company, since its inception in 1990 has been the reliable employer and economic driver for Christmas Island, creating jobs and supporting the Island’s rich and diverse cultures as well as providing good returns for shareholders. Several other Island investments and projects have come and gone, however PRL has remained resilient and enduring, and now with our diversification strategy we are helping prepare the way for a more sustainable and diversified economy for the Christmas Island community. The Company has always taken seriously its role as a good corporate citizen and through the ‘Our Community, Our Future’ program we continue to support the Island’s community.
I am proud to release CI Resources’ second annual Sustainability Report, now an integral part of our 2021 Annual Report. The report provides insights into some of the key contributions we have made from a sustainability perspective over the past financial year. The report continues to demonstrate our significant contribution to Christmas Island’s community, culture, and environment.
We trust you find the report of great interest and I look forward to continuing to work with our community to enable a sustainable Christmas Island into the future.

The Year Ahead
==> picture [116 x 244] intentionally omitted <==
While we have seen some improvement in the past year, the year ahead remains uncertain. The impact of the COVID pandemic and new variants of the disease indicates it is going to be with us for some time. We need to remain vigilant and do what we can to make each other safe, and that means getting vaccinated and minimising risk to our families and communities.
We will continue to build our business through investment in our employees, systems and infrastructure, and ensure we work closely with our customers. Our efforts over the past few years are encouraging and have positioned us well to navigate what is ahead.
Our focus on diversifying and growing our business on Christmas Island, and across our global value chain, is sound. It will enable PRL to access new customers and markets to take advantage of opportunities as they arise, and position the company as a diverse, integrated and sustainable business.
I’m also proud to launch our new website – www.prlgroup.com.au – which better reflects and showcases our diversified business interests, as well as our community and environmental focus areas. We hope you find the content interesting and insightful and look forward to your feedback.
In closing I would thank the Board members, executives, senior managers, shareholders, customers and all employees of our group for their continued efforts and support as we enter our fourth decade of operations.

2021 Annual Report | CI Resources

Chairman’s Report
It is with pleasure that I present the 2020/21 Annual Report for CI Resources Limited (“the Company”).
Wholly owned subsidiary Phosphate Resources Ltd (PRL) in 2020 celebrated the 30th year anniversary of this truly extraordinary company. The Christmas Island community joined together in 1990 in a fight to sustain jobs and a vibrant island community, which it has since delivered, together with excellent returns to its shareholders.
The Company while continuing to be heavily invested in the economic, environmental and social future of Christmas Island, has grown substantially from these humble origins to become an integrated and diversified ASX listed Company with interests across several industries. 2021 marks a further step in that strategic direction.
Financial Performance
The year ended 30 June 2021 saw improving market conditions amid the ongoing challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Board and Management have navigated the Company to an underlying net profit after tax of $6.8m with contributions from across the business. Earnings per share for the period equated to 5.88c per share representing a significant increase from the previous period.
Demand globally for fertilisers began to strengthen during this period, buoyed by fertiliser supply and agricultural labour shortages. Conversely, shipping costs and availability presented a significant challenge, cushioned somewhat by owning our own vessel. With Christmas Island’s close proximity to our customers and the island’s ongoing COVID-19-free status, despite shipping challenges, sales volumes and earnings derived from Christmas Island Rock Phosphate (CIRP) improved significantly from the previous period.

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT CONTINUED
Diversification Strategy
The Company’s diversification strategy over the past few years has borne fruit. Our growing assortment of business interests on Christmas Island have been augmented by an increasingly global footprint. As follows I set out some of the more significant investments across our diversified interests.
==> picture [152 x 153] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [153 x 153] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [152 x 153] intentionally omitted <==
Phosphate
The Phosphate business incorporates a value chain spanning phosphate operations on Christmas Island through to marketing, sales and fertiliser manufacturing in Malaysia to customers throughout Asia Pacific. The core Phosphate business was a strong contributor to earnings as noted above.
During the period the business placed emphasis on building Phosphate Resources Malaysia (PRM) our downstream sales, marketing and manufacturing business in Malaysia. The Company invested in developing a larger array of innovative fertiliser products together with greater capacity to service their needs. PRM are also commenced R&D into Controlled Release Fertilisers which will offer customers high-yield fertiliser customizable to specific plant nutrient requirements, with significantly less applications and related labour required.
Shipping & Logistics
The PRL Shipping & Logistics business which comprises bulk shipping and supply chain logistics services, supports the business in linking phosphate and other fertiliser products to customers as well as our internal supply chain. Our bulk commodity ship, the MV Red Titan, provided greater flexibility to service customers in the region and helped alleviate some of the pressure towards the end of the year, posed by the tightening shipping market.
During the period we also executed a significant deal with Kemoil (announced to the market in June 2021), to take a 50% controlling stake in the Swiss-based logistics and trading business with significant business interests in the high-growth West African oil market, enabling us to further diversify our earnings base.
Energy
The Energy business underpinned by Indian Ocean Oil Company (IOOC) holds a number of substantive
contracts in the region to provide reliable and cost-effective energy to the Indian Ocean Territories, Department of Defence, Border Security as well as our own operations. The business continued to perform well while also made some progress in supporting the clean energy transition for the region, developing and proposing to government a Solar Farm concept for Christmas Island. We anticipate progressing this with relevant stakeholders over the course of the next year to assist Christmas Island achieve its ultimate goal of carbon neutrality.

Agri-Business
Our Agri-Business division incorporates farming and food production in Malaysia, and investments into development of a commercial scale agricultural production industry on Christmas Island. During the year we commenced a process to design both this agricultural production systems and a market garden where the community can access fresh produce. We are in the process of finalising the feasibility to commence food production on island in 2022.
==> picture [152 x 153] intentionally omitted <==
Services
The Services business is underpinned by CI Maintenance Services (CIMS) the largest service-based operation located in the Indian Ocean Territories, providing a full range of technical, facilities, building and project management services to new and emerging industries in the region. In recent years the Services business has grown significantly and contributes strongly to the Company’s earnings, despite the recent loss of part of a government contract at the Immigration Detention Facility at North West Point.
==> picture [152 x 153] intentionally omitted <==
Island Development
CI Resources is also currently investing in a number of Island Development initiatives relating to Christmas Island and the Indian Ocean Territories. These span tourism, property, hospitality, eco-adventure, training, research and development among other new industries to help sustain the long-term future of the region and its community.
Of particular note, during the year, the Company conducted a prefeasibility and Masterplan for Tourism on Christmas Island. The focus was on developing larger-scale ecotourism, with a view to unlocking the island’s significant potential and unique attributes. The report had just been completed at the conclusion of the period and the team are now progressing the next steps focused on stage 1 of the tourism roll out.

==> picture [596 x 196] intentionally omitted <==
Dividends
CI Resources has maintained a dividend policy of providing consistent dividends over the past 6 years, and with the brief exception of 2020 when Dividends were suspended, we continued to deliver on our dividend policy during 2021 in view of the recovery in the phosphate market and solid diversified earnings performance.
In the Half Year Report ended 31 December the Company issued a 2.0c dividend, and I am pleased to report a further 1.0c dividend for Shareholders relating to the period ending 30 June 2021.
Sustainability
Sustainability is a key concept for the Company in many forms – earnings and growth, operations and workers’ jobs, a vibrant community and the environment which supports all these things.
On the financial front the fertiliser market looks positive over the medium to long term, while our increasingly diversified interests both on Christmas Island and abroad positions the company well. Reiterating my comment in last year’s report, based upon our ongoing estimation and review of indicated and inferred resources available to the Company and with our best judgements on current commercial parameters it is reasonable to expect we can sustain viable phosphate operations on Christmas Island for the foreseeable future.
Further our diversified operations are creating new jobs in new industries for new generations of workers both on Christmas Island and across our other operations globally. We actually created 38 new jobs on Christmas Island in the 2021 financial year and our future plans should create many more.
While economically we are a major driver of activity on the island, we also are fully invested in supporting a thriving community and environment for this and future generations. We have set out a Sustainability Roadmap in our Sustainability Report published later in this report establishing some clear goals and timeframes around specific program areas covering economic, social and environmental development.

I finally take this opportunity on behalf of the Board to thank our shareholders, employees, managers and executives for their contributions to a successful outcome in challenging circumstances.

Growing Our Business
Economic Diversification
CI Resources Ltd (CIRL) and its wholly owned subsidiary Phosphate Resources Ltd (PRL) have a deep commitment to Christmas Island. We have a residential-based workforce and as the enduring and largest private employer with diversified interests on the island, we are seeking to ensure ongoing jobs and opportunities for the community and a thriving local economy into the future.
The Company has since its inception been actively pursuing a diversification strategy investing several million dollars into the Christmas Island economy; subsidiaries of PRL include:
-
CI Maintenance Services Pty Ltd (CIMS) – CIMS provides asset management services to the Department of Home Affairs, to support the Christmas Island Detention Centres, along with providing other general on-island maintenance services, including for PRL.
-
Indian Ocean Oil Company Pty Ltd (IOOC) – IOOC is the sole supplier of petrol, diesel burner fuel, and future Solar Energy on the Island and is contracted by the Federal Government to supply diesel to the Navy, Australian Border Force and Power Station.
-
Indian Ocean Stevedores Pty Ltd (IOS) – IOS provides pilotage, agency, survey and consulting services to vessels calling in at Christmas Island. This service is largely underwritten by PRL.
OUR PURPOSE IS TO:
Build a sustainable future
-
Joint venture in a biological fertiliser company in New Zealand, Pacific Biofert Fertilisers.
-
PRL Shipping (PRLS) – Owns a vessel, the Red Titan, a freight and Phosphate Bulk carrier vessel. The operation of PRLS has been able provide much needed competition and reduce the cost of freight to the Island by bringing freight in, and backloading phosphate out.
PRL are pursuing further diversification, through a new phase of tourism, infrastructure and agricultural projects, including a solar farm, agri-tourism and market garden offerings, an Eco-Resort Development and a Mountain Bike facility to help create new and exciting tourism products for the Island. These projects are future looking activities, part of a business strategy to accelerate diversification of the Christmas Island economy away from one largely dependent on mining.

Christmas Island Tourism Master Planning
The Company has committed to a significant new step in diversification with the completion of a Master Planning and Pre-Feasibility study into a substantial tourism development on Christmas Island. The project was led by highly credentialed remote island tourism development consultants from Dubai in conjunction with Australian-based remote-island specialists TOPO.
The work included detailed on-the-ground assessment of the natural assets offered by the land being considered along with Christmas Island in general. From this a grand vision was captured in a Tourism Masterplan for Christmas Island, and then divided into a scalable roll-out phases to allow sustainable tourism development.
A bankable feasibility on the proposed development will be progressed over the next two years. Subject to support from Government, community and financial stakeholders the full Masterplan phased rollout is planned over a 10-year period. The developments
include a 3-to-4-star eco-lodge/chalets, and a clifftop luxury eco-resort on leased land to the northeast of Christmas Island.
This project is a central aspect of the Company’s Diversification agenda providing an opportunity to unlock the enormous eco-tourism potential of Christmas Island, bringing in new cohorts of guests to enjoy the natural wonders on offer. Equally importantly, this development offers future economic and employment opportunities for the Christmas Island community. It will also help to preserve the environment with ecologically sound developments and increased tax revenue which can be directed to protecting and enhancing the Christmas Island environment.
The projects will complement our work in developing new tourism products for the Island, such as mountain biking, fresh food production, agritourism and renewable energy.

==> picture [596 x 378] intentionally omitted <==
Christmas Island Agricultural Production
The Company has developed a clear vision to improve the quality and availability of fresh produce for Christmas Island and the region. This is driven by the fact that the community currently gets the bulk of its fresh produce by ship or air, with resulting negative impacts on cost, freshness and increased carbon footprint caused by produce being transported great distances.
In recent years the Company has invested in agricultural research via the MINTOPE Program in partnership with Murdoch University and the Federal Government. We have also entered into the Island Fresh joint venture with community-supported Hidden Garden Organic Farms. A key learning from our agricultural experience is that growing fresh produce in open-field environments is challenging given Christmas Island’s unique combination of
soil, weather and ecology. Further, that controlled environment agricultural production systems would be needed to produce at a community-scale.
We recently completed a feasibility for a significant new agricultural production business which will encompass growing fresh produce both in open fields and within more sophisticated controlled systems including greenhouses and hydroponics. This also includes some agri-tourism offerings including a harvest café offering a farm-to-table experience, open fields for picnics and concerts and market gardens with fresh produce available for the community and visitors to Christmas Island.
From this feasibility we are planning to invest in agriculture over the next 24 months to help expedite the development of critical food infrastructure for Christmas Island. This will enhance food security, unlock agritourism as a new tourism offering, and provide opportunities for research, thus helping to further drive economic diversity in the IOTs.

Christmas Island Solar Energy Project
PRL is strong supporter of the Australian Government’s renewable energy and climate change agendas. On Christmas Island power generation is primarily provided by diesel fuel. Further the Christmas Island Strategic Plan 2030 which was published in 2020, ambitious targets of 20% of all energy coming from renewables by 2024 and 60% by 2030, off a near-zero base.
Given the Island’s location and climate it is ideally suited to renewable energy, particularly solar, noting that due to the Island’s unique flora and fauna and abundant birdlife, wind-based energy generation on a large scale is problematic.
PRL have been actively advocating with government to pursue sustainable renewable energy solutions for the Island’s power generation. As a result of our efforts, the Commonwealth, last year announced an Expression of Interest (EOI), for a Public Private
Agreement (PPA) for a 1MW solar farm. PRL responded successfully and are awaiting the launch of the Request for Tender (RFT) process, planned to be released before the end of 2021.
Our proposed solution is technologically advanced and configured for the existing grid, robustly designed for Christmas Island’s challenging environment and highly scalable to cater to future growth in energy demand and share of energy provided by renewables. This is designed to significantly reduce Christmas Island’s carbon footprint together with energy costs for the Commonwealth, business and the community, which we are committed to supporting.
Additionally, PRL is already adopting the use of roof top solar for its business operations, buildings and housing as part of our commitment to a more sustainable Christmas Island. These strategies once fully implemented will result in significant wins for the environment, for government and the community.

Christmas Island Mountain Bike Project
PRL over the past 18 months has invested approximately $200,000 into developing a new adventure tourism product for Christmas Island. In partnership with Adventure Freak and the recently formed Christmas Island Mountain Bike Association (CIMBA). The project builds on the exponential growth of mountain biking throughout the world. The project will also support the Christmas Island economy, employing locally during and after its completion, boost community recreation offerings and allow the CIMBA to attract world class events and a new cohort of adventure-seeking tourists.
Stage 1 of the Christmas Island Mountain Bike Trails project involves the construction of a 29 km long world class, eco-friendly mountain bike trail, which will serve as the main feeder path to another 70 kms of proposed looping trails around the island.

Education and Training
PRL Bursary and Achievement Awards, in partnership with Christmas Island District High School, has provided financial support or scholarships and bursary awards for promising students. In 2020 for years 10 to 12, we provided an opportunity for students to apply for Bursary Awards. A total of $8,000 is available to be shared amongst the successful candidates.
The students are required to submit an application in either a written, audio or video form explaining what they aspire to through education and how the award can assist them.
During the 2020 Year 12 Graduation, the Bursary Awards were presented to Leann Yan, Nuri Mohd Fauzi, Sabrina Loh and Pei Wan (Natasha) Tan for their outstanding submissions.
The following are some extracts from their successful submissions; PRL wishes them great success with their studies.
Sabrina Loh
I am a year 12 graduate of 2020 from CIDHS and am applying for the CIP Bursary Award Program to help fund my Bachelor of Biomedical Science degree at The University of Notre Dame in Perth in 2021. I am enrolled in Biomedical Science because it explores a wide range of science coursework that will enable me to develop diverse skills and experience. Furthermore, completing this degree will be a launching point for me to commit to further studies, whether that is undertaking medicine or expanding my knowledge with commencing a long-term research project. As well as completing this degree, I intend to complete a Pre-Medicine Certificate that Notre Dame offers.
My experience of the culture on Christmas Island has been all about looking out for each other and so I am passionate about helping others. Growing up in this small community has immensely influenced my decision to work in a field that has potential to solve problems that people have created. I aspire to pursue a STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) career, particularly having an aspiration to work in the medical science field, as I wish to help underprivileged people in poorer countries to have better access to essential needs, whether that is developing new medicine or working with a group of people to come up with inexpensive innovations that will be sustainable in the long term. This further inspires me to undertake the Biomedical Science degree as I will have the chance to make a difference in the scientific community early on in my career.

Leann Yan
The fact that next year in 2021, I will be moving to Perth to commence a double degree in Environmental Biology and International Relations at Curtin University, has only started to dawn on me. I will be leaving my home of 18 years and embarking on an exciting new journey.
I can proudly say from experience that Christmas Island is one of the most multicultural regions of the world. This is evident in the island’s public holidays for the celebrations of Chinese New Year, Australia Day and Hari Raya, which are what I always look forward to. The intermingling of the island’s multitude of cultures during these joyous events is what I truly believe embodies the concept of multiculturalism; this is what I aspire to promote to the world. Now that the time for me to leave the island is nearing, I have realised that I have taken for granted the cultural acceptance that flows so naturally within our community.
Through the study of a degree in international relations at Curtin University, I hope that I will be able to gain more insight into global diplomatic relations in order to encourage greater cultural acceptance worldwide. This will challenge me to be flexible and adaptable in tackling the issue of cultural intolerance in changing environments. The study of Environmental Biology will fuel my love for both the terrestrial and marine environments; I will gain a deeper understanding into the interconnectedness of different environments in order take action into preserving our precious wildlife.
Nuri Mohd Fauzi
Christmas Island has been my home for 17 years and I believe it will always be my home no matter where, or how far away, I decide to go. Growing up, my grandma would always tell me stories of her time on Christmas Island, as well as its rich history. She is one of many seniors that live on the Island and carry this history with them. However, because of their age, these people are the most vulnerable and require immediate attention if they feel unwell. In the past few years, my grandma has had to take frequent trips to Perth to do check-ups and undergo several treatments for her diabetes and other health conditions. Because Christmas Island and its people have contributed so much to the person I have become, I want to repay this debt by studying at university in hopes of researching way in which I can help improve health services for remote locations including Christmas Island.
Receiving this bursary will add to the countless ways in which the Christmas Island has supported me and it will further assist me on my journey to study Medical Radiation Science at Curtin University. This bursary will provide me with the funds necessary for this course, as well as other resources that I will require when endeavouring to achieve my goal. By enhancing my understanding of these processes, I will become well educated in ways I can play my part in helping this beautiful community. Giving back to the island, and the people that have helped make it the place that it is today, is one of my goals as it has been the greatest privilege of my life to live here.

CIDHA/PRL Inaugural Alumni Event at Optus Stadium
Christmas Island District High School Alumni
This year PRL has been supporting CIDHS in its efforts to establish an Alumni Association which brings together ex-students and teachers. This year we held the inaugural Alumni event at Optus Stadium. Despite the challenges of COVID-19 and bad weather impacting on flights, preventing travel from the Island, we were able to get together a group of exstudents and teachers who shared their experiences and wonderful memories. There was also a strong commitment to support the Alumni Association and a build a support network for the school.
Training and Apprenticeships
The Company has an ongoing commitment to training and development of our workforce and community.
Since 2007 we have provided 39 apprenticeship and traineeship opportunities to locals with 13 graduates still currently working in the group. Some highlights include:
-
Currently we have 7 active apprentices and 1 Trainee , including 1 Mechanical Fitter, 1 Boilermaker, 2 Electricians, 2 Heavy Diesel Fitters, 1 Auto Electrician and 1 OHS Trainee.
-
The Company is planning a further intake in 2021/22.
-
Ongoing leadership development training, OHS and technical training is provided to both management and employees.

Diversity
Workplace diversity is not simply acknowledging differences such as age, disability, ethnicity, gender or expression of religion and sexual orientation. It involves positively creating an environment that embraces and values differences, as a business’s core competitive advantage and promoting inclusiveness. Its advantages are many;
Individuals from diverse backgrounds can offer a selection of different talents, skills, and experiences, that may be of benefit to the organization and their work performance.
By working alongside people of different backgrounds, experiences and working styles, creative concepts can be born from bouncing ideas off of each other and offering feedback and suggestions.
Language barriers and cultural differences can often act as a bit of an obstacle for a company who want to expand their business overseas; however, by hiring employees who speak different languages and from different cultures it can make it possible for a company to work on a global basis and interact with a broader client base.
A company who embraces diversity will attract a wider range of candidates to their vacancies, as it will be viewed as a more progressive organization and will appeal to individuals from all walks of life.
Employees are more likely to feel comfortable and happy in an environment where inclusivity is a priority. Equality in the workplace is important for encouraging workers from all backgrounds to feel confident in their ability and achieve their best.
With PRL’s operational base on Christmas Island and Malaysia and with an administrative and corporate presence in Perth and Singapore, we have a strong ethnic diversity base (refer to Fig. 1). However, we do have some way to go in the representation of women in the management and senior levels of the organisation (refer to Fig. 2), which is an area we intend to focus on in the future.

Occupational Health and Safety
Phosphate Resources Limited, continues to move forward with our rigorous and collaborative approach to safety. Joint safety focus includes:
-
Building our new PRL information management system for Quality, Environment and Safety, which will allow continuity in safety management across the group.
-
Investing in strong leaders with the leadership program.
-
The review of the Information Management Systems and the development of the PRL Strategic Plan, that will allow us to identify the challenges and opportunities for the group.
The Company remains committed to a focus on safety with improvements to plant, processes and structures being ongoing and iterative.
While the Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate remains high at 24.26 this is a decrease of 17%, from last financial year. Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate remains similar to previous years at 16.17 although time off given by medical practitioners was minimal as injuries were minor with only one workers compensation claim.
Highlights
-
The introduction of the Seven Golden Rules of Safety: the branding, visual impact and clear wording allows focus on the critical risks and behaviours that are expected (refer to next page).
-
Increased Reporting: In conjunction with the number of hazards reported increasing by 19.5% the increase of over 200% in the number of reported near misses indicates we are well on the path towards a proactive safety culture.
-
More OHS Meetings: Our suite of safety focused meetings have increased by 15% with the introduction of a quarterly contractors WHS meeting and the increased frequency of health and safety representatives meetings.
-
Visual Leadership: which is an important focus for a safe work environment and documented interactions which now average forty per month representing a significant increase.
-
Increased Communications: which includes a daily report from the managers meeting that is communicated at department pre-starts, information reported includes statistics from the previous day and a weekly safety focus.

Rehabilitation Trials
The pictures below illustrate trials carried out at Field 17, there are 2 distinct methods being employed. The “Habitat Node” method is applied where there are lots of surface rocks and these are raked into piles creating trafficable areas around them. Seeds of endemic plants are simply broadcast on and around the mounds.
The other method is where surface rocks are not such an issue. Here, rip lines are created with a dozer at certain intervals but following the contour line. Seed is spread along the rip lines.
Both methods establish shelter for migratory crabs, collect rainfall and provide habitat for other endemic fauna, enabling attractive and ecologically sustainable regrowth. The areas in the photographs range between from between 18 to 24 months.

Feral Cat Eradication Program
Feral cats are a major threat to Christmas Island’s wildlife and are implicated in the decline of the island’s native birds and reptiles. There are estimated to be hundreds of feral cats on the island, and they combine with other invasive predators such as rats, crazy ants, wolf snakes and giant centipedes to present a fearsome threat to native species.
The eradication plan is underpinned by an enduring cat-control partnership between the Australian Government, the local community, biodiversity experts and major onisland organisations including PRL. While PRL provided $1.35 M for the first 3 years of the program. This year PRL provided a further $60,000 to support the program.
==> picture [37 x 37] intentionally omitted <==
Nest Box Project
In 2017, CIP initiated a project to evaluate the potential conservation value of artificial nest-boxes on Christmas Island. Our key focus was to determine whether Christmas Island Hawk-owls or other Island species would use artificial hollows, and whether this use was influenced by factors such as location, habitat type, tree height, and nest-box design.
The Christmas Island Hawk-owl (Ninox natalis) – Christmas Island’s only owl species – is restricted to the Island, and is one of 11 owls found in Australia. Environmental consultants Range to Reef designed the nest-boxes, with input from Parks Australia staff and ornithologists with experience working on the hawk-owl or on nest-box projects. With the assistance and hard work of the Christmas Island District High School students and teachers, 30 nest boxes were constructed as part of their Technology Education curriculum. The boxes are regularly monitored and some have cameras to monitor activity at the site.

MSPO/RSPO Update
The Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) Certification Scheme is the national scheme in Malaysia for oil palm plantations, independent and organised smallholdings, and palm oil processing facilities to be certified against the requirements of the MSPO Standards. MSPO aspires to provide a credible and internationally recognised national palm oil certification scheme towards promoting sustainable management of oil palm in Malaysia.
The Responsible Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) has developed a set of environmental and social criteria which companies that produce Certified Sustainable Palm Oil (CSPO) must meet. These criteria can help to minimize the negative impact of palm oil cultivation on the environment and communities in palm oil-producing regions. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) have been active along with the industry in the establishment of RSPO.
One of the most important RSPO criteria states no primary forests or areas which contain significant concentrations of biodiversity (e.g. endangered species) or fragile ecosystems, or areas which are fundamental to meeting basic or traditional cultural needs of local communities (high conservation value areas), can be cleared.
Other RSPO principles stipulate a significantly reduced use of pesticides and fires; fair treatment of workers according to local and international labour rights standards, and the need to inform and consult with local communities before the development of new plantations on their land.
Only by being RSPO-certified by an independent auditor approved by the RSPO can producers claim that they produce, use and/or sell sustainable palm oil.
PRL’s plantation assets in Malaysia fully comply with MSPO. Recently the PRL board made a significant commitment to pursue RSPO accreditation for its Palm Oil assets. As we set out in the 2020 Sustainability Report the Company set a target date of achieving RSPO by 2025. We are currently tracking well ahead of this target and will continue to provide updates noting that due to the onerous nature of this certification, only a small minority of plantations currently meet this standard.

The Company is well positioned to leverage on an improving fertiliser market, deliver savings from internal efficiencies, and further diversify earnings in the period ahead.

FINANCIAL REPORT
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
1. Corporate Information
This financial report of CI Resources Limited (“Company”) for the year ended 30 June 2021 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (“Group”). The financial report of CI Resources Limited for the year ended 30 June 2021 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 30 September 2021.
CI Resources Limited is a for profit company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to the financial year ended 30 June 2021, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of preparation
The financial report is a generalpurpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 , Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”). The financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis except for biological assets and certain financial instruments, which have been measured at fair value.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000), unless otherwise stated under the option available to the Company under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191. The Company is an entity to which the legislative instrument applies.
The financial report covers the Consolidated Entity of CI Resources Limited and its controlled entities and has been prepared on an accruals basis.
a) Compliance with IFRS
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
b) New accounting Standards and Interpretations
i) Changes in accounting policy
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the year-end report are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020.
Several new and amended Accounting Standards and interpretations apply for the first time in 2021, but do not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group and hence have not been disclosed.
ii) New and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued but not yet effective
Australian Accounting Standards and interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective have not been adopted for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2021 are outlined below:
AASB 2020-8 Amendments to AASs – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021
The second phase of the project in addressing the financial reporting effects of IBOR reform has been recently completed. This phase focuses on issues that might affect financial reporting upon replacement of existing interest rate benchmarks, and amends the requirements in AASB 9, AASB 139, AASB 7, AASB 4 Insurance Contracts and AASB 16 Leases.
The objective of the amendments is to minimise financial reporting consequences of a change in benchmark interest rates that
Australian Accounting Standards may otherwise require, such as the derecognition or remeasurement of financial instruments, and the discontinuation of hedge accounting.
Provided that the contractual interest rate will be substantially similar before and after the replacement, the amendments:
-
Require changes to future cash flows that are directly required by the IBOR reform to be treated as if they were changes to a floating interest rate. Applying this expedient would not affect the carrying amount of the financial instrument. It also relieves entities of the need to assess whether modification or derecognition accounting applies under AASB 9 and AASB 139.
-
Require changes to lease payments that are directly caused by the IBOR reform to be accounted for as a remeasurement of the lease liability using a revised discount rate – being the original discount rate adjusted only for changes caused by the IBOR reform. A corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use-asset follows. This expedient exempts entities from remeasuring the lease liability using a newly determined discount rate otherwise required for lease modifications.
Entities would not have to discontinue hedge accounting due to IBOR reform, provided that the hedge continues to meet other hedge accounting criteria.
Insurers who are still applying AASB 139 would also be subject to the same mandatory reliefs.
Entities are required to provide disclosures that help readers understand the effect of the IBOR reform on the financial statements and risk management strategies, including the progress in completing the transition to alternative benchmark rates and how such transition is being managed.
These amendments apply
retrospectively. However, restatement of prior periods is not required but permitted only if such restatement is possible without the use of hindsight.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.

AASB 2020-3 Amendment to AASB 9 – Fees in the ‘10 per cent’ Test for Derecognition of Financial Liabilities (Part of Annual Improvements 2018–2020 Cycle)
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022
Under AASB 9, an existing financial liability that has been modified or exchanged is considered extinguished when the contractual terms of the new liability are substantially different, measured by the “10 per cent” test. That is, when the present value of the cash flows under the new terms, including any fees paid or received, is at least 10 per cent different from the present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability.
The amendment to AASB 9 clarifies that fees included in the 10 per cent test are limited to fees paid or received between the borrower and the lender, including amounts paid or received by them on the other’s behalf. When assessing the significance of any difference between the new and old contractual terms, only the changes in contractual cash flows between the lender and borrower are relevant. Consequently, fees incurred on the modification or exchange of a financial liability paid to third parties are excluded from the 10 per cent test.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
AASB 2014-10 Amendments to AASs – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022
The amendments to AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and AASB 128 clarify that a full gain or loss is recognised when a transfer to an associate or joint venture involves a business as defined in AASB 3. Any gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of assets that does not constitute a business, however, is recognised only to the extent of unrelated investors’ interests in the associate or joint venture.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
AASB 2021-5 Amendments to AASs – Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023
AASB 112 Income Taxes requires entities to account for income tax consequences when economic transactions take place, and not at the time when income tax payments or recoveries are made. Accounting for such tax consequences, means entities need to consider the differences between the tax rules and the accounting standards. These differences could either be:
-
Permanent – e.g., when tax rules do not allow a certain expense to ever be deducted; or
-
Temporary – e.g., when tax rules treat an item of income as taxable in a period later than when included in the accounting profit.
Deferred taxes representing amounts of income tax payable or recoverable in the future must be recognised on temporary differences unless prohibited by AASB 112 in certain circumstances. One of these circumstances, known as the initial recognition exception, applies when a transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit, and is not a business combination. Views differ about applying this exception to transactions that, on initial recognition, create both an asset and liability (and could give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences) such as:
-
Recognising a right-of-use asset and a lease liability when commencing a lease
-
Recognising decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities with corresponding amounts included in the cost of the related asset
Some entities have previously recognised deferred tax consequences for these types of transactions, having concluded that they did not qualify
for the initial recognition exception. The amendments to AASB 112 clarify that the exception would not normally apply. That is, the scope of this exception has been narrowed such that it no longer applies to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences.
The amendments to AASB 112:
-
Apply to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented; and
-
Require entities to also recognise deferred tax for all temporary differences related to leases, decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented.
The cumulative effect of initial application is recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings or other component of equity, as appropriate.
AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards was amended to require deferred tax related to leases and decommissioning, restoration and similar obligations to be recognised by first-time adopters at the date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards, despite the exception set out in AASB 112.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
AASB 2021-3 Amendments to AASs – COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2021
In light of many other challenges, lessees faced during the COVID-19 pandemic, AASB 16 was amended to extend the availability of the practical expedient to not account for COVID-19 related rent concessions as lease modifications by one year. Provided all other conditions are met, this expedient can be applied to rent concessions that reduce only lease payments originally due on or before 30 June 2022.

AASB 2020-3 Amendments to AASB 3 – Reference to the Conceptual Framework
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022
The IASB’s assessment of applying the revised definitions of assets and liabilities in the Conceptual Framework to business combinations showed that the problem of day 2 gains or losses would be significant only for liabilities that an acquirer accounts for after the acquisition date by applying IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets or IFRIC 21 Levies. The Board updated IFRS 3 in May 2020 for the revised definitions of an asset and a liability and excluded the application of the Conceptual Framework to liabilities and contingent liabilities within the scope of IAS 37 or IFRIC 21.
The AASB released the equivalent amendments to AASB 3 in June 2020.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
AASB 2020-1 Amendments to AASs – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current
is emphasised as being more useful than generic information or summaries of the requirements of Australian Accounting Standards.
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023
The amendments to AASB Practice Statement 2 supplement the amendments to AASB 101 by illustrating how the four-step materiality process can identify material accounting policy information.
A liability is classified as current if the entity has no right at the end of the reporting period to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period. The AASB recently issued amendments to AASB 101 to clarify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. Specifically:

defer settlement of a liability exists.
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022
- Management intention or expectation does not affect classification of liabilities.
Under AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment, net proceeds from selling items produced while constructing an item of property, plant and equipment are deducted from the cost of the asset. The IASB’s research indicated practical diversity in interpreting this requirement. As a result, AASB 116 was amended to prohibit an entity from deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment, the proceeds from selling items produced before that asset is available for use. An entity is also required to measure production costs of the sold items by applying AASB 112 Inventories. Proceeds from selling any such items, and the cost of those items, are recognised in profit or loss in accordance with applicable standards.
- In cases where an instrument with a conversion option is classified as a liability, the transfer of equity instruments would constitute settlement of the liability for the purpose of classifying it as current or non-current.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
AASB 2021-2 Amendments to AASB 7, AASB 101, AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and AASB Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements9 – Disclosure of Accounting Policies
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023
These amendments are applied retrospectively, but only to items of property, plant and equipment that are ‘ready to use’ on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the amendments — ‘ready to use’ meaning the asset is in the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Earlier application is permitted.
The amendments to AASB 101 require disclosure of material accounting policy information, instead of significant accounting policies. Unlike ‘material’, ‘significant’ was not defined in Australian Accounting Standards. Leveraging the existing definition of material with additional guidance is expected to help preparers make more effective accounting policy disclosures. The guidance illustrates circumstances where an entity is likely to consider accounting policy information to be material. Entityspecific accounting policy information

AASB 2020-3 Amendment to AASB 141 – Taxation in Fair Value Measurements (Part of Annual Improvements 2018–2020 Cycle)
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022
When using a present value technique to measure fair values of assets within the scope of AASB 141 Agriculture, taxation cash flows are not included. While AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement does not prescribe an entity to use a particular present value techniques to measure fair value, it requires assumptions about cash flows and discount rates to be internally consistent. Depending on facts and circumstances, an entity applying a present value technique might measure fair value by discounting after-tax cash flows using an after-tax discount rate or pre-tax cash flows at a pre-tax discount rate.
The AASB has removed from AASB 141 the requirement to exclude taxation cash flows when measuring fair value. Such removal aligns with the principles of fair value measurement in AASB 13.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
AASB 2020-3 Amendments to AASB 137 – Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022
AASB 137 defines an onerous contract as a contract in which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it. Unavoidable cost is the lower of the cost of fulfilling the contract and any compensation or penalties arising from failure to fulfil it .
AASB 137 does not specify which costs to include in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract. Consequently, AASB 137 was amended to clarify that when assessing whether a contract is onerous, the cost of fulfilling the contract comprises all costs that relate
directly to the contract, which includes both the:
-
Incremental costs of fulfilling that contract (e.g., materials and labour); and
-
An allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts (e.g., depreciation of property, plant and equipment)
An entity shall apply these amendments to contracts for which it has not yet fulfilled all its obligations at the beginning of the annual reporting period in which it first applies the amendments (the date of initial application). Comparative information is not restated. Instead, the cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments is recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings or other component of equity, as appropriate, at the date of initial application. Earlier application of the amendments is permitted.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
AASB 2021-2 Amendments to AASB 108 – Definition of Accounting Estimates
Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023
An accounting policy may require items in the financial statements to be measured using information that is either directly observable,or estimated. Accounting estimates use inputs and measurement techniques that require judgements and assumptions based on the latest available, reliable information.
The amendments to AASB 108 clarify the definition of an accounting estimate, making it easier to differentiate it from an accounting policy. The distinction is necessary as their treatment and disclosure requirements are different. Critically, a change in an accounting estimate is applied prospectively whereas a change in an accounting policy is generally applied retrospectively.
The new definition provides that
‘Accounting estimates are monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty.’ The amendments explain that a change in an input or a measurement technique used to develop an accounting estimate is considered a change in an accounting estimate unless it is correcting a prior period error.
-
For example, a change in a valuation technique used to measure the fair value of an investment property from market approach to income approach would be treated as a change in estimate rather than a change in accounting policy.
-
In contrast, a change in an underlying measurement objective, such as changing the measurement basis of investment property from cost to fair value, would be treated as a change in accounting policy.
The amendments did not change the existing treatment for a situation where it is difficult to distinguish a change in an accounting policy from a change in an accounting estimate. In such a case, the change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Group.
c) Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of CI Resources Limited (“company” or “parent entity”) as at 30 June 2021 and the results of its subsidiaries for the financial year then ended.
CI Resources Limited and its
subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group or Consolidated Entity. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which CI Resources Limited has control.
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group

liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
- Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee)
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.
- Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee
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.
- The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns. Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

Where such circumstances indicate that there are indicators exist, to the extent that changes to one or more of the three the carrying value of the investment elements of control. Consolidation of exceeds its recoverable amount, an a subsidiary begins when the Group impairment loss is recognised.
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
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.
Profit or loss and each component of OCI are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. 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 intra-group assets and
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 is recognised on the recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax assets or liabilities are 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 recognised in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be recognised directly in 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.
The Group offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
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

66
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

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.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including building, 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. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciation assets are:
| used for each class of depreciation assets are: | |
|---|---|
| Class of Property, Plant and Equipment | Depreciation Rate |
| Strata title properties | 2% |
| Buildings | 5–8% |
| Plant and equipment | 5–40% |
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement.
Plant and Equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Included under plant and equipment is fixed and mobile plant and equipment, machinery, vehicles, office equipment and furniture which are used in the business operations.
The cost of property, plant and equipment constructed within the Group 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.
Construction in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment losses, if any.
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.
h) Leases
The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control
the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The nature of the Group’s leasing activities includes leasehold land and buildings, rental properties, office premises and plant and equipment to support the operations of the Group.
Group as a lessee
The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Right-of-use assets
The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-ofuse assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
67
www.prlgroup.com.au
FINANCIAL REPORT
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets.
| Depreciation Rate | |
|---|---|
| Leasehold land and buildings | Shorter of the lease and 2% |
| Rental properties and ofce premises | Period of the lease |
| Plant and equipment under lease: | 20–30% |
| • the shorter of the lease term and life span |
is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. The Group’s lease liabilities are included in Interest-bearing loans and borrowings (note 18).
If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Group at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment.
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
Short-term leases and leases of lowvalue assets
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognised as expense on a straightline basis over the lease term.
i) Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities
Financial Assets
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them. The Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables are measured at the transaction price.
In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.
The Group’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both.
Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:
-
Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)
-
Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments)
-
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at amortised cost
(debt instruments)
This category is the most relevant to the Group. The Group measures
2021 Annual Report | CI Resources
68
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
financial assets at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:
-
The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.
The Group’s financial assets at amortised cost includes trade receivables, term deposits and cash and cash equivalents.
Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI (equity instruments)
Upon initial recognition, the Group can elect to classify irrevocably its equity investments as equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI when they meet the definition of equity under IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation and are not held for trading. The classification is determined on an instrument-byinstrument basis.
Gains and losses on these financial assets are never recycled to profit or loss. Dividends are recognised as other income in the statement of profit or loss when the right of payment has been established, except when the Group benefits from such proceeds as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI. Equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI are not subject to impairment assessment.
The Group elected to classify irrevocably its listed equity investment under this category.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Derivatives, including separated embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Financial assets with cash flows that are not solely payments of principal and interest are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model. Notwithstanding the criteria for debt instruments to be classified at amortised cost or at fair value through OCI, as described above, debt instruments may be designated at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition if doing so eliminates, or significantly reduces, an accounting mismatch.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
This category includes forward currency contracts and capital notes which the Group had not irrevocably elected to classify at fair value through OCI. Dividends on listed equity investments are also recognised as other income in the statement of profit or loss when the right of payment has been established.
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e., removed from the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position) when:
-
The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or
-
The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either
-
The Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
-
The Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a passthrough arrangement, it evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of its continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.
Impairment of financial assets
Further disclosures relating to impairment of financial assets are also provided in the following notes:
-
Disclosures for significant assumptions
-
• Trade receivables
ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).

FINANCIAL REPORT
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
For trade receivables, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forwardlooking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.
The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities at amortised cost.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings.
Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includes
derivative financial instruments entered into by the Group that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by AASB 9. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit or loss. The Group has no financial liabilities held for trading.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
This is the category most relevant to the Group. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
j) Impairment of Non-financial Assets
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 based on management’s forecasts 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. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
For non-financial assets other than goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or cash generating unit’s (“CGU’s”) recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

k) Intangibles and Goodwill
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. The groups goodwill, which is classified as technical goodwill, arose on 1 May 2011 on the acquisition of the 100% interest in Cheekah-Kemayan Plantations Sdn. Bhd. Technical goodwill describes a category of goodwill arising as an offsetting account to deferred tax recognized in business combinations.
Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The Group has applied the general guidelines for allocating goodwill for the purpose of impairment testing. When performing the annual impairment test for goodwill, the deferred tax liability which gave rise to the technical goodwill in a business combination reduces the net carrying value prior to the eventual impairment charges. This is done in order to avoid an immediate impairment of all technical goodwill. When deferred tax from the initial recognition decreases, more core goodwill is exposed for impairment.
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 expenditures on an individual project are recognised as an intangible asset when the Group can demonstrate:
-
The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale
-
Its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset
-
How the asset will generate future economic benefits
-
The availability of resources to complete the asset
-
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development
Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised over the period of expected future benefit. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
l) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each entity in the Group 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.
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.
m) 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, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet. The carrying values of term deposits represent the fair values.
n) 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
www.prlgroup.com.au
71
FINANCIAL REPORT
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
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 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. There is no aggregation of operating segments.
o) Business Combination
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, which is measured at acquisition date fair value, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Group elects whether to measure the noncontrolling interests in the acquiree 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 9 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.
Any goodwill arising from the business combination is accounted for under Intangibles and Goodwill accounting policy.
p) Revenue
Revenue from contract with customers
The Group is in the business of:
-
Mining, processing and sale of phosphate rock, phosphate dust and chalk;
-
Supply of fuel and oil products to other Christmas Island entities;
-
Providing maintenance, fuel pilotage and stevedoring services to other Christmas Island entities; and
-
Operating a palm oil estate, processing and sale of palm oil products in Malaysia
Revenue from phosphate sales
Each phosphate shipment is governed by a sales contract with a customer, including spot sales and medium term supply agreements with the transaction price on a per tonne basis. Revenue from the sale of phosphate is recognised at a point in time when the control of the asset is transferred to the customer which is typically upon completion of the loading of the product.
For the Group’s phosphate sales made on a Cost and Freight basis, the Group is responsible for providing freight/shipping services after the date the Group transfers control of the phosphate to its customer. This is considered as a separate performance obligation which is satisfied at a different point in time from the
phosphate sales. The Group, therefore has a separate performance obligation for freight/shipping services which are provided solely to facilitate the sale of the phosphate it produces. Revenue for freight/shipping is recognised over the same time as the shipping occurs.
Revenue from sale of palm oil products
Each palm oil sale is governed by a sales contract with a customer. Revenue from the sale of palm oil products is recognised at a point in time when the control of the asset is transferred to the customer which is typically upon completion of the loading of the product.
Revenue from fuel and oil products
Each fuel oil sale is governed by a sales contract with a customer, including long term supply arrangements and point of sale bowser sales. Revenue from the sale of fuel products is recognised at a point in time when the control of the asset is transferred to the customer which is typically upon completion of the loading of the product.
Revenue from service contracts
Revenue from services contracts is governed by a long term contract with a customer. These activities tend to be substantially the same with the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Where this is the case, which is the majority of the services contracts, these services are taken to be one performance obligation and the total transaction price is allocated to the performance obligation identified. Revenue for services performed is recognised at a point in time based on the invoiced value to the customer based of the entity’s performance each month.
Interest income
Revenue is recognised as the interest accrues using the effective interest rate method (which was the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset).
2021 Annual Report | CI Resources
72
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Dividends
Revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established.
q) 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.
r) 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. Long term employee benefits have been measured using the projected unit credit method taking into account the relevant assumptions.
s) 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.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date using a discounted cash flow methodology. The risks specific to the provision are factored into the cash flows and as such a risk-free government bond rate relative to the expected life of the provision is used
as a discount rate. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised in finance costs. 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 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 related asset or if not related to a specific asset expensed.
t) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying 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 expensed during the period in which they are incurred.
u) Bearer Plants
Bearer plants are measured at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment.
Prior to maturity, the costs of bearer plants include the cost of direct materials, direct labour and other costs directly attributable to the bearer plants reaching maturity. Post maturity, maintenance costs on bearer plants are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation
Mature bearer plants are subject to depreciation on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The useful life of a bearer plant is estimated at 25 to 30 years.
The carrying amount of bearer plants is reviewed annually by the Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets.
v) Biological Assets
Biological assets consist of agricultural produce growing on bearer plants at reporting date.
Biological assets are measured at their fair value less estimated point of sale costs at the point of harvest. The 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.
w) 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 costs are shown in non current assets.
x) 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.
y) Provision for Dividend
The Group recognises a liability to pay a dividend when the distribution

73
FINANCIAL REPORT
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Group. As per corporate laws in Australia, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognized directly in equity.
z) Investments in joint ventures
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary to determine control over subsidiaries. The Group’s investment in its joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.
Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture is initially recognised at cost. The carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the joint venture since the acquisition date. Goodwill relating to the joint venture is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment separately.
The statement of comprehensive income reflects the Group’s share of the results of operations of the joint venture. Any change in OCI of those investees is presented as part of the Group’s OCI. In addition, when there has been a change recognised directly in the equity of the joint venture, the Group recognises its share of any changes, when applicable, in the statement of changes in equity. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the joint venture.
The aggregate of the Group’s share of profit or loss of a joint venture is shown on the face of the statement of comprehensive income outside operating profit and represents profit or loss after tax and non-controlling interests in the subsidiaries of the joint venture.
The financial statements of the joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in its joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the joint venture and its carrying value, and then recognises the loss within ‘Share of profit of an associate and a joint venture’ in the statement of comprehensive income.
aa) 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.
ab) Comparative Figures
Where required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for the current financial year. Within the consolidated statement of financial position the following has been reclassified at 30 June 2021:
-
“Term deposits” was reclassified as “other financial assets” due to the company having additional other financial assets at year-end;
-
“Right-of-Use Asset” was reclassified to “Property, plant and equipment” to consolidate the group’s disclosure for ROU Asset and Property, plant and equipment.
ac) 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.
3. Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
a) 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.
Impact of COVID-19
The COVID-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. The outbreak and the response of Governments in dealing with the pandemic is interfering with general activity levels within the community, the economy and the operations of
2021 Annual Report | CI Resources
74
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
the Group. The scale and duration of these developments remain uncertain as at the date of this report. The Group has considered the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions. However, as these are subject to increased uncertainty the actual outcomes may differ from the estimates.
Assessment of mine life on Christmas Island
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the resource supports continued operations based on the current market parameters and expectations.
Determination of mine life
The Group’s estimation of its mineral resources was prepared by or under the supervision of Competent Persons as defined in the Australian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves 2004 (the “JORC code”).
There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral resources 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.
b) 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:
applied to cash flow projections. The cash flows are based on the financial budget approved by management for the upcoming year and assumptions are made regarding the inflation rates for the following 4 years and a terminal value.
Provision for expected credit losses of trade receivables
For trade receivables, the Group the upcoming year and assumptions has applied the standard’s simplified are made regarding the inflation approach and has calculated ECLs rates for the following 4 years and a based on lifetime expected credit terminal value. losses. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on Provisions for Decommissioning the Group’s historical credit loss Costs experience which are based on days Decommissioning costs are a past due, adjusted for forward-looking normal consequence of mining and factors specific to the debtors and the majority of this expenditure is the economic environment. The incurred at the end of a mine’s life. In assessment of the correlation between determining an appropriate level of historical observed default rates, provision consideration is given to the forecast economic conditions and expected future costs to be incurred, ECLs is a significant estimate.
Decommissioning 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. Refer to Note 19.
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. During the year, an impairment indicator was identified for the Fertiliser CGU (Net Asset Value in excess of market capitalisation). As a result an impairment test was performed. The recoverable amount was assessed by reference to a ‘value in use’ (being the net present value of expected future cash flows of the relevant cash generating unit).
The ultimate cost of decommissioning is uncertain and costs can vary in response to many factors including changes to the relevant legal requirements or the emergence of new decommissioning 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.
In determining value in use, future cash flows are based on:
Deferred Tax Asset
- Estimates of the quantities of ore reserves and mineral resources;
The deferred tax asset will only be obtained if:
-
Future production levels;
-
Future commodity prices and foreign exchange rates; and
-
a) future assessable income is derived of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised;
-
Future cash costs of production and capital expenditure.
The recoverable value was in excess of the carrying value and no impairment was recognised.
-
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.
Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Assumptions are made regarding post tax discount rates
The deferred tax assets are considered to be probable of being fully recovered, as it is believed that the entity will have future taxable income to fully utilise the tax benefit. Refer note 5.

Trade debtors are non-interest bearing and are generally on 30-150 day terms.
For trade and other receivables, the Group has applied the standard’s simplified approach and has calculated ECLs based on lifetime expected credit losses. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience for customer groups, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors, industry payment profiles and the economic environment. As at 30 June 2021, an ECL of $0.002 million was recognised (2020: $0.124 million). Subsequent to year end $5.535 million relating to past due but not impaired balances have been collected.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of the receivables disclosed in this note. No additional impairment was identified on trade debtors through the COVID-19 pandemic. Trade debtor composition across the Group remained consistent, and notwithstanding demand and production variation recoverability continued to be in line with credit terms provided to major customers.
As at 30 June, the ageing analysis of trade receivables is, as follows:

Goodwill acquired through business combination has been allocated to the Farming CGU, which is also a reporting and operating segment for impairment testing.
13. Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
The key assumptions used for assessing the recoverable amount of the Farming CGU are set out below. The recoverable value has been determined using the VIU methodology. There was no impairment recognised for the Farming CGU during the year. The post-tax discount rates incorporate a risk-adjustment relative to the risks associated with the net post-tax cash flows being achieved, while the growth rate is based on market estimates of the long-term average industry growth rate.
| 2021 | 2020 | |
|---|---|---|
| Crude Palm Oil (RM/tonne) | 2,775–3,333 | 2,400–2,593 |
| Extraction Rates | 18.75% | 18.80% |
| Discount rate (post-tax) | 9.50% | 8.75% |
| Infation rate | 1.85%–2.25% | 2.3% |
| Growth rate | 1.85%–2.25% | 2.3% |
| Headroom as apercentage of the CGU’s net carryingvalue | 6.0% | - |
The recoverable amount of the Farming CGU has been determined using a value in use calculation using cash flow projections. The post-tax discount rates applied to cash flow projections is 9.50% (2020: 8.75%) and the cash flows are based on the financial budget approved by management for the upcoming year and for the following 4 years and a terminal value.
The calculation of value in use for the Farming CGU is most sensitive to the following assumptions:
-
Crude Palm Oil (“CPO”) short term and long term pricing forecasts
-
Discount rate
-
Extraction rate assumptions of CPO and Palm Kernel (PK)
-
Growth rate estimates

FINANCIAL REPORT
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
CPO short term and long term pricing forecasts
Forecast pricing is based on published industry research.
Discount rate
Discount rates represent the current market assessment of the risks specific the Farming CGU, taking into consideration the time value of money and individual risks of the underlying assets that have not been incorporated in the cash flow estimates.
Extraction rate assumptions of CPO and PK
Extraction rates are based on average values achieved in the five years preceding the beginning of the budget period.
Growth rate estimates
Rates are based on published industry research.
The Group has assessed the recoverable amounts of the CGU using a VIU calculation and considered potential downside scenarios in respect of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. There are no reasonably possible changes in key assumptions for the Farming CGU impairment test which would result in an impairment in the current financial year.
14. Biological Assets and Bearer Plants
The Group grows oil palm plants to produce palm oil. The plantation is located in Malaysia. The Group is exposed to risks in respect of agricultural activity. During the year a total of 22,875 metric tonnes of fruit was produced.
The primary risk associated with this activity occurs due to the length of time between expending cash on planting and trees reaching production so that cash can be received from the 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.

| Fair value adjustment | 29 112 |
| Efect of foreign exchange | (119) (24) |
| Carryingamount at end ofperiod | 246 231 |
Biological assets consist of agricultural produce growing on bearer plants at reporting date. The fair value of biological assets, being the agricultural produce growing on bearer plants at reporting date are measured at their fair value less estimated point of sale costs at the point of harvest.
In determining the fair value at reporting date the following judgements were applied:
| 2021 | 2020 | |
|---|---|---|
| FFB Price (RM per tonne) | 656 | 339 |
| Extraction rate (CPO) | 19.00% | 19.00% |
| Extraction rate (PK) | 6.00% | 6.00% |
- Malaysian Ringgit
The estimated metric tonnes of fruit on trees at balance sheet date, being 1,750 tonnes (2020: 2,973 tonnes), and the oil content was based on actual harvests post reporting date.
With regard to the estimation of the fair value of the biological asset, it has been classified as a level 3 in the fair value hierarchy being based on certain inputs that are not based on observable data. Management believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cause a material change in the fair value of the biological assets at the balance sheet date.

a) Provision for redundancy
The amounts employees are entitled to receive in accordance with their employment agreements are recognised and measured in accordance with the employee benefits accounting policy. The redundancy provision decreased by a net amount of $723,000 during the year ended 30 June 2021 (2020: decrease $278,000).
b) Provision for decommissioning
Based on the Mining Lease Agreement between the Commonwealth Government and Phosphate Resources Limited a provision for decommissioning has been recognised for costs associated with:
The assumptions used to calculate this provide include:
-
Inflation rate – 2.5%
-
Discount rate – 1.49%
-
Term – End of lease
Estimates of the decommissioning obligations are based on anticipated technology and legal requirements and future costs, which have been discounted to their present value. In determining the decommissioning provision, the entity has assumed no significant changes will occur in the relevant Federal and State legislation in relation to demolition of such mines in the future.
- Demolition of all improvements specified for the removal of all debris resulting from demolition, removal of plant and equipment and leaving the mine sites in a safe, clean and tidy condition at the expiry of the lease.

These contracts are fair valued by comparing the contracted rate to the forward market rates for contracts with the same remaining term, discounted at a market interest rate. All movements in fair value are recognised in profit or loss in the period they occur. The net fair value gain on foreign currency derivatives during the year was $3.808 million for the Group (2020: net loss of $0.491 million).

b) Capital notes – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
During the period, the Group has invested in capital notes with various institutions measured at fair value through profit or loss financial assets.

Initial measurement of these financial assets comprises fair value and subsequent measurement at fair value. The movement in fair value in each period is recognised in profit or loss. The net fair value gain on capital notes during the financial year were $19,000 (2020: loss of $36,000) for the Group.
c) Listed Shares – Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income
During the period, the Group had a total of 13,018,700 ordinary shares in United Malacca Bhd, a publicly listed company in Malaysia. United Malacca Bhd is a Malaysian based palm oil company involved in both the cultivation of oil palms and palm oil milling operations. The Group has elected to account for the instruments under the fair value through other comprehensive income method due to the Group’s long term strategic plan.

|
|---|---|
| Listed shares | |
| Malaysian listed shares | 21,060 20,831 |
d) Fair value measurement and disclosure
The Directors have concluded that the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are not materially different to carrying values. The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments were:
-
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.
-
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 notes – These investments are fair valued by reference to published bid prices.
All asset and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described below, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
-
Level 1 – Values based on unadjusted quoted prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
-
Level 2 – Values based on inputs, including quoted prices, time value and volatility factors, which can be substantially observed or corroborated in the marketplace. Prices in Level 2 are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
-
Level 3 – Values based on prices or valuation techniques that are not based on observable market data.
-
Listed shares – These investments are designated at fair value through OCI and fair valued by reference to the published bid prices.

30. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, leases, cash and short-term deposits, long-term deposits, interest bearing loans and borrowings, foreign exchange derivatives, capital notes and listed equity investments.
Market (including foreign exchange, commodity price and interest rate risk), 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.
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
Interest rate risk on cash and term deposits is not considered to be a material risk due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.
The interest rates for borrowings are variable.
At 30 June 2021, had the interest rate moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit and equity would have been affected as follows:
| Post tax proft and equity Higher/(Lower) 30 June 2021 $’000s 30 June 2020 $’000s |
|
|---|---|
| Consolidated | |
| Interest rate + 10% | 32 10 |
| Interest rate – 10% | (32) (10) |

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
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.

----- End of picture text -----
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 minimizes its exposure to credit risk by placing its cash deposits and derivatives with high
credit-quality financial institutions where possible. Term deposits typically have an original maturity of three months or less and other bank deposits are on call. These financial assets are considered to have low credit risk. Receivables balances are monitored on an ongoing basis. At reporting date there were debtors amounting to $8.2 million (2020: $4.0million) that were past due, but not considered impaired (Refer to Note 8). Based on the Group’s assessment the exposure to future credit loss is not significant based on the ECL procedures performed by the Group.

FINANCIAL REPORT
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
For the year ended 30 June 2021
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 29, forward currency contracts designated as held for trading that are subject to fair value movements through profit or loss as foreign exchange rates move.
At 30 June 2021, 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:
| Post tax proft and equity Higher/(Lower) 2021 $’000s 2020 $’000s |
|
|---|---|
| Consolidated | |
| AUD/USD + 10% | (3,079) (4,037) |
| AUD/USD – 10% | 3,763 4,934 |
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.
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.
Security price risk
The Group’s listed equity investments are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investment securities. The Group manages the equity price risk through diversification and by placing limits on individual and total equity instruments. Reports on the equity portfolio are submitted to the Group’s senior management on a regular basis. The Group’s Board of Directors reviews and approves all equity investment decisions. At 30 June 2021, had the security price moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, equity would have been affected as follows:
Judgments of reasonably possible movements:
| Judgments of reasonably possible movements: | |
|---|---|
| Equity Higher/(Lower) 2021 $’000s 2020 $’000s |
|
| Consolidated | |
| Security price + 10% | 2,106 2,083 |

Independent auditor’s report to the members of CI Resources Limited
Report on the audit of the financial report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of CI Resources Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
a. Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2021 and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
b. Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report. The results of our audit procedures, including the

Why significant
How our audit addressed the key audit matter We assessed the adequacy of the disclosures and the ECL provision concerning trade debtors as described in Note 8 to the Group financial statements.
Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s 2021 annual report, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report and our related assurance opinion.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the 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 financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

==> picture [67 x 79] intentionally omitted <==
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated to the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter

should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Report on the audit of the Remuneration Report
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 43 to 46 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2021.
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of CI Resources Limited for the year ended 30 June 2021, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 .
Responsibilities
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 . Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
