SKY METALS LIMITED

AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

NOTE 1 - REPORTING ENTITY

Sky Metals Limited (“Sky” or the 'Company') is a company domiciled in Australia. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as at and for the half-year ended 31 December 2020 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the 'Group'). The Group is a for-profit entity, primarily engaged in identifying and evaluating mineral resources opportunities in New South Wales.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2020 are available upon request from the Company's registered office at 207 Byng Street, Orange, NSW, 2800 or at www.skymetals.com.au

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of compliance

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting .

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2020 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 15 March 2021.

(b) Going concern

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

The Group recorded a loss after tax of $1,013,082 (2019: $909,827) for the six months ended 31 December 2020. At 31 December 2020 the Group had cash and cash equivalents of $3,115,944 (30 June 2020: $8,307,265) and net assets of $17,311,074 (2020: $16,657,345).

The Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts that support the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern for the period of at least 12 months from the date of the directors declaration. The cash flow projections assume the Group continues exploration activities on all tenements and will increase its exploration expenditure if additional funding is secured. The Directors are satisfied that existing cash resources remain sufficient to fund planned exploration activities and in addition, the Group is able to reduce expenditure to the level of funding available if necessary.

(c) Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the consolidated financial statements are described in:

  • Note 2(b) - Going concern

  • Note 5 - Exploration and evaluation expenditure

  • Note 7 – Share based payments (Performance Rights)

No matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the half-year, which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.

NOTE 9 - OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the board of directors (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Group is managed primarily on a geographical basis which involves the exploration of minerals in New South Wales, Australia. Operating segments are determined on the basis of financial information reported to the board which is at the consolidated entity level.

Accordingly, management currently identifies the Group as having only one reportable segment, being mineral exploration. The financial results from this segment are equivalent to the financial statements of the consolidated Group as a whole.

Responsibilities of the Directors 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

  • such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the Halfyear Financial Report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Other matter

For the half-year period ended 31 December 2019 Sky Metals Ltd was not required to prepare an interim financial report and therefore was not reviewed. These amounts are presented as corresponding figures in the 31 December 2020 condensed consolidated interim statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated interim statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Half-year 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. 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.
