Half-Year Report – 31 December 2020

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Directors’ report

Your directors present their half year report on the consolidated entity (“Group”) consisting of CI Resources Limited (“CII” or “Company”) and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the half-year ended 31 December 2020.

Directors

The following persons were directors of CI Resources Limited for the whole of the half-year and up to the date of this report, unless otherwise stated:

Mr David Somerville Mr Lai Ah Hong Dato’ Sri Tee Lip Sin Mr Tee Lip Jen Mr Adrian Gurgone Dato’ Sri Kamaruddin bin Mohammed

Dividends

The Directors propose paying a fully franked interim dividend of 2 cents per share issued with the record date being set at 19 March 2021 with payment to be made on the 16 April 2021.

Review of operations

The Consolidated Entity is reporting a net profit for the period of $6.146M for the half-year ended 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: $2.575M).

Impact of COVID-19

As previously reported the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business in this reporting period, however the commercial drivers in our markets are recovering rapidly.

Financial Results

The Company is starting to see improving market conditions in the 2021 financial year, with phosphate and fertiliser sales volumes of approximately 290,000 tonnes for the half year, compared with 245,000 tonnes for the same period last year. This has been a result of improved Crude Palm Oil prices – from historical lows leading up to the COVID-19 lockdowns, to recent historical highs, which has generated greater demand for fertilisers across the market.

Consistent with the Group’s strategic plan, the Company has established a joint venture with a major Singapore based fertiliser trader which will increase the distribution capacities for the Company in the region.

The Company’s “on Christmas Island” diversification strategy has also contributed strong results to our profitability for the period.

Half-Year Report – 31 December 2020

CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Notes to the financial statements For the half-year ended 31 December 2020

7 Financial Instruments

The Directors have concluded that the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are not materially different to book 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.

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

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

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

  • Capital notes - These investments are fair valued by reference to published bid prices.

(a) Forward currency contracts – Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss

The Group has entered into forward exchange contracts which are economic hedges but do not satisfy the requirements for hedge accounting.

Notional amounts Notional amounts Average exchange rate Average exchange rate
$AUD

Sell US$ maturity 12 to 24 months 4,925 17,264 0.6092 0.6372

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 gains on foreign currency derivatives during the half-year were $4.403 million (2019: loss $0.355 million) for the Group.

(b) Capital notes – Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss

The Group has invested in capital notes with various institutions which are designated as available-for-sale financial assets.

Fair Value Fair Value
$AUD
31 Dec 2020 30 June 2020

Capital notes $
Australian capital notes 969 956

Initial measurement of these financial assets comprise fair value plus transaction costs and subsequent measurement at fair value. The movement in fair value in each period is recognised in other comprehensive income. The net fair value gain on capital notes during the half-year were $13,000 (2019: loss $3,000) for the Group.

The group uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise: Level 1: the fair value is calculated using quoted price in active markets;

Level 2: the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly (as price) or indirectly (derived from prices); and

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

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the half-year financial report of the Group is not 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 31 December 2020 and of its consolidated financial performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • b. Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Directors’ responsibility for the half-year financial report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

INDEPENDENT RE�IEW REPORT TO T�E �E��ERS

==> picture [86 x 101] intentionally omitted <==

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
