CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Shareholder

I am pleased to present to you the Annual Report for the 2017 financial year on behalf of the Company. It has been a milestone year with the Company’s announcement in April, 2017 that it will be acquiring the ESports business, Gaming Battle Ground ( GBG ). This follows a long, systematic search for new and viable business opportunities in a range of industry sectors including mining, agri-business and the tech-sector.

Since the execution of a binding Sale and Purchase Agreement for the acquisition of 100% of GBG shares, Arrowhead’s management has been working closely with GBG executives to complete the transaction as quickly as possible whilst carefully navigating the regulatory requirements. I thank you for your patience as we seek to complete the acquisition and capital raising in November, 2017.

The GBG acquisition positions Arrowhead, to be renamed Emerge Gaming Ltd, in an exciting growth industry of ESports, with an established business model, ready for an aggressive roll-out phase. A new ASX code, EM1, has been reserved.

As this transaction was taking shape, the Board sought ways to acknowledge the losses of longstanding shareholders who saw the Company’s flagship asset, the Abu Dabbab Tantalum-Tin-Feldspar project expropriated in March 2015 by its partner, the Government of Egypt, on the cusp of commencing development. To this end a spin-out of the Australian registered holding company, Tantalum International is proposed as part of the overall GBG transaction structure as outlined in the Prospectus lodged on 1 September, 2017. This has been initiated to benefit those longer-term shareholders if the Company wins a financial settlement through its legal claims against the Government of Egypt.

On behalf of the Arrowhead team we look forward to working with the GBG team to complete this transaction as expeditiously as possible. On behalf of the Board I thank you for your ongoing support and interest and I look forward to meeting with many of you at the forthcoming shareholder meeting.

Yours Sincerely

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS 2017

The Directors of Arrowhead Resources Limited (Arrowhead or the Company), provide the following review of operations for the financial year ending 30 June 2017.

1. Corporate Strategy

During the year the Board has focused on seeking a new project or business opportunity whilst establishing its case against the Government of Egypt for the expropriation of the Company’s 50% share in the Abu Dabbab Tantalum-Tin-Feldspar project and other assets in early 2015.

1.1 Corporate Affairs

The Company has operated on a minimal expenditure budget whilst management pursued new business and investment opportunities and also sought to build up its case against the Government of Egypt and solicit litigation funding support. The Board is pleased to outline below significant progress on both these objectives.

In June, Mr Jason Peterson resigned a non-executive director and Mr Philip Re was appointed as a replacement.

The Company completed a placement of 22,500,000 shares (on a pre-consolidation basis) to raise $250,000 in October 2017.

A consolidation (1.8:1) of the Company’s shares was completed on 19 October 2017. The adjusted share capital is 136, 593,577 shares.

1.2 Project Generation

Following the loss of its core project, the Abu Dabbab tantalum-tin-feldspar Project the Board recognised that the future of the Company could not be allowed to remain reliant on a legal process for compensation from a foreign government and that in order to restore shareholder value the company had to chart its own course through securing a new project or business opportunity.

On 22 June, 2017 the Company announced the execution of a binding agreement to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Gaming Battle Ground Pty Ltd (ACN 616 572 144) (“ GBG” ). GBG owns and operates an online gaming platform ( “Gaming Battle Ground” ) that facilitates the interaction of gamers around the world to compete against each other, and in tournaments, on some of the most popular international game titles, tapping directly into the large scale of the ESports market. The acquisition is conditional upon completion of due diligence, shareholder approvals and other approvals as detailed in the report to ASX on 22 June, 2017, which at the date of this report is well advanced, with shareholders overwhelmingly approving the transaction at a General Meeting on 9 October, 2017.

This is a complex, multifaceted transaction requiring significant independent advice on the detailed structuring as well as ongoing liaison with, and review by, ASX and ASIC. As at 20 October 2017, significant milestones for the transaction have been met and completion is forecast to occur on 29 November.

1.3 Exploration

1.3.1 Abu Dabbab Tantalum-Tin-Feldspar Project (Egypt)

Tantalum International Ltd ( TIL ) is a 100% owned subsidiary of Arrowhead and holds all of the Company’s mining assets in Egypt. Arrowhead and its 100% owned subsidiary, ( TIL , intend to jointly prosecute claims against Egypt in proceedings which relate to the alleged expropriation (amongst other claims) of TIL’s 50% interest in the large scale Abu Dabbab Tantalum-Tin-Feldspar project (the Project ), located in southern Egypt, in early 2015. TIL’s interest in the Project (amongst other assets) are held via its 50% equity in Egyptian registered Tantalum Egypt JSC, the holding entity of the Project tenements.

The Funder is a specialist in financing the arbitration and litigation of international disputes. The conditional Arbitration Funding Agreement is subject to full due diligence by the Funder and its external counsel, which is due to be completed by the 15 November, 2017. Given the purpose of the conditional funding support and nature of the underlying legal process the key terms and conditions are “commercial in-confidence”. If the Conditional Arbitration Funding Agreement becomes binding, the arbitration process is successful, an award for compensation is made and the Company successfully recovers the proceeds of its award from Egypt, the Funder will recoup its expenses plus a risk fee which will comprise a proportion of any award.

There is no link between the conditional funding agreement and the acquisition of 100% of the issued capital of GBG; completion of which is subject to completion of a $5 million capital raising and obtaining all necessary regulatory approvals.

The acquisition of GBG remains management’s core focus and to avoid any distraction or incidental financial burden on the incoming management of the “new” company, Arrowhead has signed a management agreement with the directors of TIL ( TIL Directors ), Mr Michael Rosenstreich, Mr Ayman Ayyash and Mr Rowan Caren. The TIL Directors will assume all responsibility for the management and participation in the arbitration process and the regulatory maintenance of the Company without salary or fees but incentivised by a success fee payable from any award.

For clarity; Arrowhead is a joint claimant, but the action will be managed entirely by TIL with the majority of any award funds post the Funder’s payments planned to be distributed to TIL shareholders as outlined in a prospectus lodged with ASX on 1 September, 2017.

1.3.2 Other Exploration Interests

In 2012, Arrowhead executed a sale and purchase agreement with Stellar Resources Ltd (ASX: SRZ) whereby Stellar Resources Ltd acquired the Company’s 40% interest in the Heemskirk Tin Project for 43,528,743 shares in Stellar Resources Ltd and a royalty. The 43,528,743 shares in Stellar Resources Ltd were subsequently sold but the Company retains the Royalty. Under the Minerals Royalty Deed dated 30 January 2012, the royalty receivable by the Company will be calculated as follows:

Net Realised Price per tonne of tin Royalty Percentage

AUD

Less than $25,000 Nil $25,000 - $30,000 1% plus 0.0002% for every $1 the Net Realised Price is over $25,000 $30,000 or more 2%

With the Company’s proposed change in the nature of its business to eSports and noting the strong improvement in the international tin price to approximately US$20,500/tonne or A$26,000/tonne as well as Stellar’s ongoing progress to develop the project, the Company plans to divest the Heemskirk royalty.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

  • As announced on 22 June 2017, the Company has entered into a binding share sale agreement (Agreement), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Gaming Battle Ground Pty Ltd (GBG) (Proposed Acquisition). The Proposed Acquisition is conditional on the Company obtaining all necessary regulatory and Shareholder approvals to effect the Proposed Acquisition and satisfying all other requirements of ASX for the reinstatement to official quotation of the Company’s Shares on the ASX including the raising of $5 million (among other things). GBG owns and operates an online gaming platform (“Gaming Battle Ground”) that facilitates the interaction of gamers around the world to compete against each other, and in tournaments, on some of the most popular international game titles, tapping directly into the large scale of the eSports market.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

It is unlikely that Arrowhead will regain access to the Abu Dabbab Project or its other interests and assets in Egypt. Arrowhead considers that it will likely need to seek recourse under Egyptian and/or international law (including making a significant claim for financial compensation for the damage it has suffered). Arrowhead will, through its legal counsel, exercise its rights and pursue its claims vigorously. Arrowhead is in advanced discussions with a litigation funder in relation to this matter. Prior to completion of the Proposed Acquisition, the Company proposes to distribute and transfer all of its interest in Tantalum International Pty Ltd (TIPL) to eligible Shareholders of the Company on a pro‐rata basis. It is proposed that TIPL would be an unlisted public company, run by the existing directors of the Company on a success fee basis, subject to approval by AR1 shareholders. This will ensure that Arrowhead shareholders, prior to completion of the Acquisition, retain the rights to the legal action in Egypt pertaining to the alleged expropriation of the Abu Dabbab tantalum‐tin‐feldspar project by the Egyptian Government in 2015.

As announced on 22 June 2017, the Company has entered into a binding share sale agreement (Agreement), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Gaming Battle Ground GBG owns and operates an online gaming platform (“Gaming Battle Ground”) that facilitates the interaction of gamers around the world to compete against each other, and in tournaments, on some of the most popular international game titles, tapping directly into the large scale of the eSports market.

The Company intends to change its name to Emerge Gaming Limited and to undertake a consolidation of capital on a 1.8:1 basis.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION AND PERFORMANCE

The Group's operations are not currently subject to any significant environmental regulations. However, the board is committed to achieving a high standard of environmental performance, and regular monitoring of potential environmental exposures is undertaken by management. The board considers that the Group has adequate systems in place for the management of its environmental requirements and is not aware of any breach of those environmental requirements as they apply to the Group.

The Group is required to carry out its activities in accordance with the mining laws and regulations in the areas in which it undertakes its exploration activities.

INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited)

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Arrowhead Resources Limited.

Remuneration Policy

The remuneration policy of Arrowhead Resources Limited has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long‐term incentives. The Board of Arrowhead Resources Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.

The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the Group is as follows:

  • The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, is developed and approved by the board after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants as required. In the years presented, no external consultants have been used.

  • All executives receive a base salary or fee (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience).

  • The board reviews executive packages annually by reference to the Group's performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors.

The board policy is to remunerate non‐executive directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The board determines payments to the non‐executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. In the current year, no advice was sought. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non‐executive directors is currently fixed at $250,000 with any change in this amount subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non‐executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company.

No relationship exists between the remuneration policy and the Company’s performance.

At the Company’s most recent Annual General Meeting, the remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2016 was passed with a greater than 75% vote in favour.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

1 CORPORATE INFORMATION

The financial report of Arrowhead Resources Limited for the year ended 30 June 2017 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 1 August 2017.

Arrowhead Resources Limited which is the ultimate parent company, is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group were exploration and development of mineral resources.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and applicable Australian Accounting Standards.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share‐based payment transactions that are within the scope of AASB 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of AASB 117, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in AASB 2 or value in use in AASB 136.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

  • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

  • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

For the purpose of preparing the financial statements, the consolidated entity is a for‐profit entity.

(b) Going Concern

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

As at 30 June 2017, the Group had available cash and cash equivalents of $440,528 and had incurred a loss for the year then ended of $573,493 and had a net cash outflow from operating activities of $522,717.

The Board considers that the Group is a going concern and recognizes that additional funding is required to ensure it can continue to fund its operations during the twelve‐month period form the date of this report. Such additional funding can be derived from raising additional equity capital to fund the Company’s requirements as and when required.

As announced on 22 June 2017, the Company has entered into a binding share sale agreement pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Gaming Battle Ground Pty Ltd. This acquisition is conditional upon the raising of $5 million of equity funding (amongst other conditions).

ARROWHEAD RESOURCES LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 31 004 766 376

23

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

The Directors are satisfied that these conditions will be satisfied and the Company will have sufficient funds for its ongoing activities. Accordingly, the Directors believe that sufficient funding will be enable to allow the Company to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt that basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial report.

Should the Company be unable to complete the re‐compliance listing as outlined above or raise additional capital from another source, there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt as to whether it will be able to continue as a going concern and, therefore, whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

(c) Discontinued Operations

As disclosed in the prior year, the Company’s previously wholly owned subsidiary, Nubian Resources Plc, was voluntarily dissolved on 24 May 2016. The Company has deconsolidated the results of Nubian Resources Plc accordingly.

(d) Statement of Compliance

Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures the financial report, the financial statements and notes comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

(e) New Standards and Interpretations Adopted

Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2017

In the year ended 30 June 2017, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual reporting period.

As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Company and, therefore, no material change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted

The Directors have also reviewed all Standards and Interpretations in issue but not yet adopted for the year ended 30 June 2017. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact, of the Standards and Interpretations in issue but not yet adopted on the Group and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

(f) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Arrowhead Resources Limited and entities (including special purpose entities) controlled by Arrowhead Resources Limited (its subsidiaries).

Control is achieved when the Company:

  • has power over the investee;

  • is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

  • has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

The Company reassesses 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 listed above.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist. All inter‐company balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from intra‐group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non‐controlling interests even if this results in the non‐controlling interests having a deficit balance.

ARROWHEAD RESOURCES LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 31 004 766 376

24

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference between:

  • The aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest; and

  • The previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non‐ controlling interests.

Refer to Note 2(c) and Note 23 for deconsolidation.

All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to profit and loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by the applicable AASBs). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under AASB 139, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture.

(g) Foreign currency translation

Both the functional and presentation currency of Arrowhead Resources Limited and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars ($AU). Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency at the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date.

All differences in the consolidated financial report are taken to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income with the exception of differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken directly to equity until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those borrowings are also recognised in equity.

Non‐monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the date of the initial transaction. Non‐monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

As at the reporting date the assets and liabilities of overseas subsidiaries are translated into the presentation currency of Arrowhead Resources Limited at the rate of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date and the statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the year. The exchange differences arising on the retranslation are taken directly to a separate component of equity.

On disposal of a foreign entity, the deferred cumulative amount recognised in equity relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

(h) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and short‐term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short‐term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

(i) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables, which generally have 30 day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount which represents fair value at that date less an allowance for any doubtful debts. An allowance of doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified.

25

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

(j) Other financial assets

Other financial assets in the parent company represent investments in subsidiaries held at cost less any impairment.

(k) Property, plant and equipment

Leasehold improvements, buildings and plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses recognised.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight‐line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows: Plant and equipment ‐ over 3 to 10 years

Impairment

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash flows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash‐ generating unit to which the asset belongs. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash‐generating units are written down to their recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre‐tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued used of the asset.

Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period the item is derecognised.

(l) Recoverable amount of assets

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group 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 are discounted to their present value using a pre‐tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

(m) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost and due to their short term nature they are not discounted. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

ARROWHEAD RESOURCES LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 31 004 766 376

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

(n) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre‐tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

(o) Loans and borrowings

Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received.

After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs and any discount or premium on settlement.

(p) Contributed equity

Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.

(q) Share‐based payment transactions

The Group provides remuneration to employees (including directors) of the Group in the form of share‐based payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares ('equity‐settled transactions').

The cost of these equity‐settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. In valuing equity‐settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Arrowhead Resources Limited ('market conditions').

The cost of equity‐settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award ('vesting date').

  • The cumulative expense recognised for equity‐settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects ‐ (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired, and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the Group, will ultimately vest.

This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition.

ARROWHEAD RESOURCES LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 31 004 766 376

27

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

Where the terms of an equity‐settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification.

Where an equity‐settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share (see Note 5).

(r) Leases

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. All other leases are classified as finance leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a straight‐line basis over the lease term. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight‐line basis, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.

(s) Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Interest revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Interest revenue is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.

(t) Income tax

In principle, deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the statement of financial position date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for the financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:

  • except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

  • in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry‐forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry‐forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised:

  • except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary differences arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

  • in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each statement of financial position date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

(u) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Financial assets

Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair value through profit or loss’ (FVTPL), ‘held‐to‐maturity’ investments, ‘available‐for‐sale’ (AFS) financial assets and ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL.

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:

  • it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or

  • on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short‐term profit‐taking; or

  • it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

  • A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

  • such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or

  • the financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or

  • it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and AASB 139 ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ permits the entire combined contract (asset or liability) to be designated as at FVTPL.

Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re‐measurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘other gains and losses’ line item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 21.

ARROWHEAD RESOURCES LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 31 004 766 376

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

Loans and receivables

Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short‐term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period of 60 days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

For financial assets carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss.

When an AFS financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the period.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

In respect of AFS equity securities, impairment losses previously recognised in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of investments revaluation reserve.

(v) Other taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:

  • where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and

  • receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the Cash Flow statement on a gross basis and the GST

ARROWHEAD RESOURCES LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 31 004 766 376

30

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(w) Employee entitlements

Provision is made for the Company's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees at balance date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year, together with entitlements arising from wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave, which will be settled within one year, have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on‐costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Contributions are made by the entity to employee superannuation funds and are charged as expenses when incurred.

(x) Derecognition of financial instruments

The derecognition of a financial instrument takes place when the Group no longer controls the contractual rights that comprise the financial instrument, which is normally the case when the instrument is sold, or all the cash flows attributable to the instrument are passed through to an independent third party.

(y) Segment information

Operating segments have been identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the board of directors of the Company.

(z) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of Australian Accounting Standards management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year, or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years. There were no critical accounting judgments or key sources of estimation uncertainty with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year.

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events is reported.

(aa) Financial risk management policy

Details of the Group's financial risk management policy are set out in Note 21.

(bb)Compound financial instruments

The Group evaluates the terms of any financial instrument to determine whether it contains both a liability and an equity component. The separate components of a financial instrument that create a financial liability and grant an option to the holder of the instrument to convert it into an equity instrument are recognised separately on the statement of financial position.

(cc) Comparative figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

21 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(a) Financial risk management policy

The Group's management of financial risk is aimed at ensuring net cash flows are sufficient to:

  • meet all financial commitments as and when they fall due, and

  • maintain the capacity to fund its forecast project development and exploration strategies.

The Group continually monitors and tests its forecast financial position against these criteria.The Group's principal financial instruments comprise cash and short‐term deposits. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group operations. The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the Group's policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken.

The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments presently are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk, security risk and liquidity risk.

The Group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange risk and assessments of market forecasts for interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity prices. Ageing analyses and monitoring of specific credit allowances are undertaken to manage credit risk. Liquidity risk is monitored through the development of future rolling cash flow forecasts.

(b) Interest rate risk

The following table sets out the carrying amount of the financial instruments exposed to interest rate risk:

(d) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other receivables. The Group's exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

The Group does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure.

In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is not significant.

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group.

The Board's policy is to preserve its capital base as much as possible so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business.

There were no changes in the Group's approach to capital management during the year, other than that Group has been able to rely upon equity to finance its capital management, rather than short term debt finance.

Neither the Company nor any of its controlled entities are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

(g) Foreign Exchange Risk

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the members of Arrowhead Resources Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Arrowhead Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and 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 Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; 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 (“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.

Material uncertainty relating to going concern

We draw attention to Note 2 (b) in the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $573,493 during the year ended 30 June 2017. As stated in Note 2 (b), these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2 (b), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key audit matters

Except for the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Relating to Going Concern section, we have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.

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 Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, 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.

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 ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related 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 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.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement 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

ARROWHEAD RESOURCES LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 31 004 766 376

51

==> picture [174 x 75] intentionally omitted <==

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.

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, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period 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 Remuneration Report

Opinion on the remuneration report

We have audited the remuneration report included in the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2017.

In our opinion, the remuneration report of Arrowhead Resources Limited for the year ended 30 June 2017 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.
