Notes to Financial Statements For the Half-Year Ended 31 December 2008

1. Basis of Preparation

These general purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2008 have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting

This interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of Shell Villages and Resorts Limited and its controlled entities (the Group). As such it does not contain all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. It is therefore recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2008, together with any public announcements made during the half-year in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been followed in this interim financial report as were applied in the most recent annual financial statements.

(a) Impact of new and revised standards

The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to their operations and effective for the current reporting period. The adoption of these amendments has not resulted in any changes to the Group's accounting policies and has no effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior periods.

Certain new accounting Standards and Interpretations have been published that are not mandatory at 31 December 2008. Management has assessed the new accounting standards and interpretations that have been published but are not mandatory for the half-year reporting period and concluded that none of these new standards and interpretations is relevant to the Group.

(b) Going concern basis of accounting

During the half-year ended 31 December 2008, the consolidated entity recorded a consolidated operating loss of $1,027,723 and reported net liabilities of $2,658,795. In addition, the Company has converted total liabilities of $1,674,923 into equity subsequent to balance date. However, the entity continued its reliance upon shareholder capital and unsecured borrowings to meet its business and loan obligations. The continuing viability of the entity and its ability to continue as a going concern and meet its debts and commitments as and when they fall due is dependent upon the following key events:

  • ongoing support from the Company's creditors;
  • accomplishing a capital raising of $1,700,000; and
  • development of new business opportunities and profitable projects.

Subsequent to 31 December 2011, the Company has issued new shares to private investors on 31 January 2012 and 23 February 2012. In addition, the Company commenced a capital raising of $1.7million. Details of those transactions and a Pro-forma Statement of Financial Position as at 31 December 2011 are set out below. The Pro-forma Statement of Financial Position is prepared on the assumption that all proposed share issues are accomplished as though they occurred at 31 December 2011:

1. Basis of Preparation (continued)

I. Debt restructure

The Company has accomplished the following debt restructure to convert certain debts into equity subsequent to the balance date:

  • (i) The Company has issued 20,000,000 ordinary shares on 1 September 2011 to convert its 1,300,000 convertible notes into equity. The carrying value of the convertible notes as at 30 June 2011 was $796,804.
  • (ii) the Company has issued 10,000,000 ordinary shares on 1 September 2011 to Mr B Patkin, a previous director, to settle the amounts owed to Mr B Patkin. This has resulted in a conversion of $691,000 debts into equity.
  • (iii) the Company has issued 14,870,000 ordinary shares to the directors on 1 September 2011 to settle the directors' fees payable of $161,695.
  • (iv) the Company has issued 2,430,000 ordinary shares and 564,775 ordinary shares on 1 September 2011 and 9 September 2011 respectively to two creditors to settle a total payable balance of $42,064.
  • (v) Pursuant to a deed dated 18 March 2010 and approval by the annual general meeting at 31 August 2011, the Company agreed to settle a payable balance of $269,000 with a creditor by converting the payable balance into ordinary shares. The share conversion is yet to occur.
  • (vi) On 31 January 2012, the Company allotted 39,880,000 fully paid ordinary shares at $0.005 each to raise total capital of $199,400. Total proceeds of $199,400 were received as at 31 December 2011 and recognised as financial liabilities at balance date.
  • (vii) On 23 February 2012, the Company issued 18,634,654 fully paid ordinary shares at $0.0015 each to raise total capital of $27,952

II. Proposed capital raising

Subject to shareholders' approval, the Company proposes to issue 10,000,000 pre consolidation shares at $0.0015 each to raise $15,000.

The Company also commenced a capital raising of $1.7 million through a prospectus which is subject to shareholders' approval. These funds will be used to fulfill the Company's obligation under the Hunter Valley JV agreement and other business plan in exploring new investment opportunities.

The figures presented in the pro-forma Statement of Financial Position reflect a gross capital raising of $1,715,000 less estimated share issue cost of $100,000.

The Company's financial position will be strengthened when the share offer is successful.

1. Basis of Preparation (continued)

III. Business plan

In 2008 the then Board of Directors of the Company embarked on a sell down of all the property assets held within the portfolio, 2008 coincided with the GFC and property prices were depressed, at the end of this liquidation period the Company was left in a difficult financial position. The residential property market stabilised in 2009-10 in line with improvements to domestic, economic and financial conditions. The resilience of the labour market has maintained consumer confidence levels and minimised the forced sale of residential homes throughout Australia. The situation in 2010-11 is a slightly more risky one, with rising interest rates and weak levels of dwelling commencements prevailing in the first few months of the year. Longer term, strong population growth combined with a physical shortage of housing is expected to place increased pressure for the development of new housing.

With the over-65 demographic growing at double the rate of the rest of the population, Australia would require a minimum of 2100 additional retirement villages, or more than 311,000 dwellings, by 2050, according to the Retirement Village Association.

In view of the above the Company is broadening its property development focus to a range of development proposals that are available and have the potential for significant returns in the current market, targeting properties with the potential of an uplift in zonings followings the NSW State Government's direction to standardise local Council LEPs, residential subdivisions and development of senior living and affordable housing products.

To enable the search and selection of the most desirable projects the Company has contracted HD Consulting Pty Ltd. to search, propose, and negotiate terms for possible acquisitions. HD Consulting Pty Ltd has an excellent track record in property development in NSW with many successful developments having been sourced and developed successfully on their own behalf, for clients, and syndicates.

In tandem with this business plan the Company will continue to asses other business opportunities within and outside of the property industry.

1. Basis of Preparation (continued)

On 3 October 2011, the Company announced the execution of a Joint Venture Agreement with Coast and Country Developments Pty Ltd to develop a land in the Hunter Valley to size up to 70 low cost homes. The Company has also commenced a capital raising for a minimum share subscription of $1,000,000 to fund the Company's obligation under the Joint Venture Agreement.

The Directors continued their efforts to provide satisfaction to ASX that the Company is in compliance with listing rules to enable the Company to be re-quoted.

The Directors believe that the Company will be successful in the above matters, and realise its assets and settle its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report. Accordingly, the directors have prepared the financial report on a going concern basis.

Uncertainties

Prior to the share offer, the Company will restructure its current capital structure to consolidate the total issued capital on a 1 for 7 basis. This is subject to shareholders' approval. In addition, successful share capital raising is subject to the ability of the Company to attract investors to subscribe for new shares. Due to this, there exists uncertainty that the Company will not successfully raise capital and therefore the Company may not be able to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business at the amounts stated in the financial report. Accordingly, the going concern basis used in the preparation of the financial report would not be appropriate.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the Half-Year Ended 31 December 2008 (continued)

2. Segment reporting

Business Segments

The consolidated group was involved in managing "Over 50's Residential Gated Communities" during the year. The parent entity is engaged in provision or corporate services to the consolidated entity and from the beginning of the reporting period is not primarily involved in medical operations.

Geographical Segments

The consolidated entity primarily managed "Over 50's Residential Gated Communities" in Australia. Geographical segment revenue from sales overseas is less than 10% of the consolidated entity's external revenues and secondary assets are less than 10% of all business segments assets and as a consequence, no secondary reporting of geographical segments is provided.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SHELL VILLAGES AND RESORTS LIMITED FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2008

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Shell Villages and Resorts Limited for the half-year ended 31 December 2008, which comprises the balance sheet as at 31 December 2008, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, other selected explanatory notes and the directors' declaration for the Shell Villages and Resorts Group (the consolidated entity). The consolidated entity comprises both Shell Villages and Resorts Limited (the company) and the entities it controlled at the end of the half-year or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors' Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001. This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of Interim and Other Financial Reports Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2008 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of the company, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. It also includes reading the other information included with the financial report to determine whether it contains any material inconsistencies with the financial report. 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.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SHELL VILLAGES AND RESORTS LIMITED FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2008 (con't)

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We have given to the directors of the Company a written Auditor's Independence Declaration, a copy of which is included on page 2 of the financial report.

Basis for Qualified Conclusion

(a) Discontinued operations

As disclosed in Note 3, the loss from discontinued operations of $565,302 includes the operating loss from the discontinued operations of $909,829 and a gain on disposal of $344,527. In addition, the total net assets at disposal of the discontinued operations was $3,405,473. As disclosed in the cash flow statement the proceeds from sale of subsidiary was $3,750,000 and repayment of borrowings was $3,930,197 for the halfyear ended 31 December 2008.

Management of the company were unable to provide sufficient and appropriate evidence as to the disposal of the subsidiary Shell Villages and Resorts HV Pty Ltd. As such, we have not been able to complete our review of the discountinued operations to conclude whether (i) all transactions of the subsidiary have been completely and accurately recorded; (ii) matters might have come to our attention indicating that adjustments might be necessary as to the total net assets at disposal of $3,405,473, the gain on disposal of $344,527, the operating loss from the discountined operation of $909,829, the proceeds from sale of the subsidiary of $3,750,000 and repayment of borrowings of $3,930,197 for the half-year ended 31 December 2008.

(b) Trade creditors

Management of the company were unable to provide sufficient and appropriate evidence as to the trade creditor balances of $163,669 of the subsidiaries Shell Villages and Resorts BRT Pty Ltd and Shell Villages and Resorts Cooroy Pty Ltd. As such we have not been able to complete our review of those trade creditor balances to conclude whether matters might have come to our attention indicating that adjustments might be necessary as to the trade creditor balances of the subsidiaries as at 31 December 2008.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SHELL VILLAGES AND RESORTS LIMITED FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2008 (con't)

Basis for Qualified Conclusion (continued)

(c) Qualification on opening balances

Non-current Assets Held for Sale – Cooroy Property

For the year ended 30 June 2008, the consolidated entity recognised a non-current asset held for sale with a value of $3,001,199. We were not provided with sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to determine whether or not the directors' assessment of the carrying value at the balance date complied with the requirements of Accounting Standard AASB 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. We were therefore unable to quantify the possible impact (if any) that application of this standard may have had on the operating loss for the year or the balance sheet as at 30 June 2008. Since the opening balances enter into the determination of the result of operations and closing balances as at 31 December 2008. We were unable to conclude whether matters might have come to our attention indicating that adjustments might be necessary to the results of operations and opening retained earings for the half-year ended 30 June 2008 and non-current assets held for sale balance of $3,034,327 as at 31 December 2008.

Intangible Assets – Property Development Fees

As outlined in Note 25 of the 30 June 2008 financial statements, the consolidated entity paid $600,000 to a related party for development fees, which was recognised as an intangible asset. We were not provided sufficient audit evidence to determine if the recognition of the asset complied with the requirements of Accounting Standard AASB 138 Intangible Assets. Should this transaction not met the criteria of an intangible asset, the operating loss for the year ended 30 June 2008 would have been $5,460,185, total equity ($2,046,597) and intangible assets nil. Since the opening balances enter into the determination of the result of operations, we were unable to conclude whether matters might have come to our attention indicating that adjustments might be necessary to the results of operations and opening retained earings for the halfyear ended 31 December 2008.

Convertible Notes

The consolidated entity issued a number of convertible notes during the year ended 30 June 2008. The value of convertible notes recognised within the entity's accounting records was $1,550,000. We were not provided with sufficient audit evidence to support these transactions. We were unable to quantify the possible effects on the operating loss or balance sheet as at 30 June 2008. Since the opening balances enter into the determination of the results of operations and the closing balances at 31 December 2008, we were unable to conclude whether matters might have come to our attention indicating that adjustments might be necessary to the results of the operations and opening retained earings for the half year ended 31 December 2008 and the convertible notes balance of $3,446,667 as at 31 December 2008.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SHELL VILLAGES AND RESORTS LIMITED FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2008 (con't)

Qualified Conclusion

Except for the adjustments to the half-year financial report that we might have become aware of had we been able to satisfy ourselves as to the effects of the matters discussed in the preceding paragraphs, based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the halfyear financial report of Shell Villages and Resorts Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

  • i. giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2008 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and
  • ii. complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.

Material Uncertainty in relation to the going concern basis

Without qualifying our conclusion, we draw attention to Note 1 in the half-year financial report which indicates that the consolidated entity incurred a net loss of $1,027,723 for the half year ended 31 December 2008 and reported net liabilities of $2,658,795 as at 31 December 2008. These conditions along with other matters described in Note 1 indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast signficiant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
