REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
The operating loss for the half-year ended 31 December 2018 was $609,884 (31 December 2017: Nil).
Sultan Resources completed it’s first exploration drilling program at the Thaduna prospect during the quarter.
The program included 71 vertical aircore drill holes for a total of 2,797m designed as a first pass assessment of licence E52/3481 to understand the geological setting and ascertain the location and tenor of any gold or base metal occurrences.
The program successfully identified a number of very strong exploration targets with a prominent, 1km long gold anomaly occurring coincident with Archaean greenstones in contact with granites in the north of the licence as well as a NE-SW trending, widespread multi-element base metal anomaly trending for over 1.5km diagonally across the licence. Both anomalies show strong similarities in geological setting and the element association to results from exploration that led to the discovery of nearby significant gold and base metal mineralisation such as Lodestar’s Ned’s Creek Gold (see LSR ASX Announcement on 03/08/2018) and Sandfire Resources Enigma Project (Sandfire ASX announcement 25/10/2018).
Base metal trend shows similar structural setting and element association to nearby sediment-hosted copper discoveries such as the Enigma Copper Project
Infilling and extending the new anomalies will be the focus for future drilling in 2019 with the aim of delineating targets for deep drilling to find the primary source of the gold or base metal anomalism.
Other activities
Sultan undertook heritage surveys at the Thaduna Project and received clearance for access to over 90% of E52/3461 from the Yamatji Marlpa Aboriginal Corporation (YMAC), as the representative of the Yuguna-Nya Traditional Owners of the area. Sultan is continuing to work with YMAC to access the remaining areas as required.
Sultan continued land access negotiations with private land owners in both the Lake Grace and Dalwallinu areas during the quarter. The Company looks forward to progressing access agreements for these important areas in preparation for the 2019 exploration program.

Sultan Resources Limited Half-Year Report 31 December 2018
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation
These general purpose interim financial statements for half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2018 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.
These general purpose financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2018 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.
The Company was incorporated on 4 January 2018 and accordingly, the financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2018 have not disclosed comparatives for the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Sultan Resources Limited’s functional and presentation currency.
The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the policies stated below.
(b) Significant accounting judgements and key estimates
The preparation of the interim financial report requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing this interim financial report, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2018.
(c) Accounting Policies
A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period for which the Company has adopted:
-
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers; and
-
AASB 9 Financial Instruments.
The new accounting policies are disclosed below. There is no impact on the Company for the period ended 31 December 2018 and the prior year financial statements did not have to be restated as a result.
(i) AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with Customers
The Company’s new revenue accounting policy is detailed below:
Revenue is recognised when or as the Company transfers control of goods or services to a customer at the amount to which the Company expects to be entitled. If the consideration promised includes a variable component, the Company estimates the expected consideration for the estimated impact of the variable component at the point of recognition and re-estimated at every reporting period.
11 | P a g e
Sultan Resources Limited Half-Year Report 31 December 2018
Notes to the Financial Statements
(ii) AASB 9 Financial Instruments
AASB 9 Financial Instruments replaces the provisions of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement that relate to the recognition, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, derecognition of financial instruments, impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting.
Classification and measurement
Except for certain trade receivables the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
Under AASB 9 financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), amortised cost, or fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). The classification is based on two criteria: The Company’s business model for managing the assets; and whether the instruments’ contractual cash flows represent ‘solely payments of principal and interest’ on the principal amount outstanding (the ‘SPPI criterion’).
Equity Instruments
Financial assets not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Typically, such financial assets will be either: (i) held for trading, where they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the short-term with an intention of making a profit, or a derivative; or (ii) designated as such upon initial recognition where permitted. Fair value movements are recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment
The Company recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the Company's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.
For financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is recognised within other comprehensive income. In all other cases, the loss allowance is recognised in profit or loss.
NOTE 2 SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates only in one reportable segment being predominately in the area of mineral exploration in Western Australia. The Board of Directors considers its business operations in gold mineral exploration to be its primary reporting function. Results are analysed as a whole by the chief operating decision maker, this being the Board of Directors. Consequently, revenue, profit, net assets and total assets for the operating segment are reflected in this financial report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SULTAN RESOURCES LIMITED
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Sultan Resources Limited which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2018, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information and the directors’ declaration.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
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 a Financial Report 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 half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 31 December 2018 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 Sultan Resources Limited, 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. 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.

(a) giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 31 December 2018 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
(b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001 .
