Brief Explanation of any of the figures reported above

The Company and controlled entities (the Group) generated an operating loss after income tax of $2,626,224 and net cash outflows from operations of $828,709 in the year ended 30 June 2013. The operating loss included impairment expenses of $872,977, comprising a write down in the carrying value of the Burnie Research Facility ($705,590), a write down in the carrying value of shares held in Bass Metals Limited ($66,187) and the reversal of a previous invoice issued in respect of the IRC project. As of balance date, the Group had net assets of $4,042,968 and cash balances of $3,402,821.

Hellyer Royalty

On 9 July 2012, the Group announced that it had agreed a re-structuring of the Hellyer Royalty with Bass Metals Ltd (BSM). As a result, the Group has been granted a 2.5% Net Smelter Return Royalty (NSR Royalty) in relation to base metals extracted from the following tenements:

  • RL11/1997: Mt Charter Retention Licence;

  • EL48/2003: Mt Block Exploration Licence;

  • EL24/2004: Bulgobac River Exploration Licence;

  • CML103M/1987: Hellyer Mine Lease; and

  • ML68M/1984: Que River Mine Lease.

The NSR Royalty is uncapped and BSM has no first right of refusal (or pre-emptive rights) over the NSR Royalty as was previously the case with the Hellyer Royalty. In addition, the Company was issued 15 million shares in BSM for nil consideration.

IRC Project

Stage 1 of the IRC Project involves the processing of 25,000tpa of zinc/lead bearing residues to generate Special High Grade zinc metal and lead metal together with other by-products as appropriate. The Final Milestone 1 Report, describing the results of the laboratory testing and development programme in Australia, was submitted to the client in August 2012. Subsequently, the Company completed an engineering design package for a pilot plant to be located near the project site. The pilot plant engineering design package forms a significant component of Milestone 2 of Stage 1 of the IRC Project with the other component being the construction of the pilot plant by a local service provider. The completion of the engineering design package largely completes Intec’s component of Milestone 2. Milestone 3 is the operation of the pilot plant. The completed engineering design package will be delivered to the client upon receipt of an overdue payment due to Intec International Projects Pty Ltd (IIP, the 50/50 joint venture between Intec and Mr Reza Maghzian).

Burnie Research Facility

During the year, the Burnie Research Facility was operated on a campaign basis to treat waste material from the ACL Group (ACL) in Launceston. The five-week campaign treated waste accumulated from approximately nine months of ACL operations. The treatment campaign was profitable on a standalone cash basis before consideration of certain fixed costs and non-cash items. A further campaign was successfully conducted subsequent to year end.

Low-Grade Zinc Blending Project

Following completion of operations and a positive environmental audit of the Victorian stockpile site, EPA Victoria returned the remaining $2.387 million security bond during the year. In addition, $0.321 million of the remaining portion of the EPA Tasmania security bond was also returned during the year. The remaining amount of $40,000 will be returned following EPA Tasmaiia approval of remediation works at the Hellyer site, which were carried out subsequent to year end.

2013 Audit

The financial report is based on accounts which are in the process of being audited. The audit report is expected to contain a qualification in respect of the carrying value of the Burnie Research Facility. Please refer below to the Directors’ response to this matter.

Basis of Preparation

The financial report has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs except as modified by revaluation of certain non-current assets and, except where stated, does not take into account either changing money values or current valuations of non-current assets. Cost is based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

The Company and controlled entities (the Group) generated an operating loss after income tax of $2,626,224 and net cash outflows from operations of $828,709 in the year ended 30 June 2013. The operating loss included impairment expenses of $872,977, comprising a write down in the carrying value of the Burnie Research Facility ($705,590), a write down in the carrying value of shares held in Bass Metals Limited ($66,187) and the reversal of a previous invoice issued in respect of the IRC project. As of balance date, the Group had net assets of $4,042,968 and cash balances of $3,402,821.

Going Concern Basis

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. The Directors consider the Group has adequate funding and therefore, no adjustments have been made to the financial report that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Directors have prepared the financial report on a going concern basis.

Burnie Research Facility

The carrying value of the Burnie Research Facility is $300,000 at 30 June 2013 following an impairments expense of $705,590. This carrying value has been determined by the Directors using the methodology of discounted cashflow analysis. The Group generated revenue through the Burnie Research Facility through the treatment of industrial wastes for the year to 30 June 2013 and has continued to do so subsequent to year end.

Accounting Policies

The Appendix 4E does not include notes of the type normally included within the annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and the financing and investing activities of the Group as the full financial report.

The Appendix 4E should be read in conjunction with the Half-year Financial Report of Intec as at 31 December 2012 and the Annual Financial Report of Intec, due to be released in September 2013, for the year ended 30 June 2013. It is also recommended that the Appendix 4E be considered together with any public announcements made by the Group during the year ended 30 June 2013 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations arising under the Corporations Act, 2001.

Material Factors Affecting the Revenues and Expenses of the Economic Entity for the Current Year

A material factor affecting revenue during the current year was the receipt of $497,859 as an R & D Tax Offset. A material factor affecting expenses during the current year was an impairment expense of $872,977 relating to the Burnie Research Facility, shares held in Bass Metals Limited and the reversal of a previous invoice issued in respect of the IRC project.

No other matters or circumstances have arisen since 30 June 2013 that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the Group’s operations in future financial years, or the results of those operations in future financial years, or the Group’s state of affairs in future financial years.

There are no franking credits available. The Company is not expected to declare a dividend in the short term.

Compliance Statement

The financial report is based on accounts which are in the process of being audited. The audit report is expected to contain a qualification in respect of the carrying value of the Burnie Research Facility.
