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

Note 1 General Information

Superior Resources Limited (the Company) is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Company's shares are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange.

The registered office of the Company is:

Unit 8, 61 Holdsworth Street Coorparoo QLD 4151 Ph (07) 3847 2887

The principal place of business of the Company is:

Unit 8, 61 Holdsworth Street Coorparoo QLD 4151 Ph (07) 3847 2887

The financial statements are for the Group consisting of Superior Resources Limited and its subsidiaries (the consolidated entity or the Group).

There have been no significant changes in the nature of the principal activities of the Group during the half year.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Statement of compliance

The half-year financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting'. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. The Group is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing this report.

This half-year financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an Annual Financial Report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial position and financial performance of the Group as the Annual Financial Report. As a result, this report should be read in conjunction with the 30 June 2020 Annual Financial Report of the Group and any public announcements made in the period by the Group in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.

The financial statements were approved and authorised for issue by the Directors on 11 March 2021.

(b) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical cost convention, as modified where applicable by the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half-year financial statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.

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

Note 3 Application of New and Revised Accounting Standards

The consolidated entity has adopted all the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. There has been no material impact on the financial statements by their adoption.

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. The potential financial impact of these changes is not yet possible to determine.

Note 4 Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical judgements in applying the entity's accounting policies

The Group has capitalised exploration expenditure of $5,575,167, (30 June 2020: $4,457,027). This amount includes costs directly associated with exploration. These costs are capitalised as an intangible asset until assessment and/or drilling of the permit is complete and the results have been evaluated. These costs include employee remuneration, materials, rig costs, rentals and payments to contractors. The expenditure is carried forward until such a time as the asset moves into the development phase, is abandoned or sold. Given exploration activities have not yet reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of recoverable resources and the difficulty in forecasting cash flows to assess the fair value of exploration expenditure there is uncertainty as to the carrying value of exploration expenditure. The ultimate recovery of the carrying value of exploration expenditure is dependent upon the successful development and commercial exploitation or, alternatively, sale of the interest in the tenements.

Note 5 Going Concern

Notwithstanding that the Group incurred an operating loss after tax of $333,848 (2019: loss of $459,381) and had net cash outflows from operations of $182,074 (2019: outflows of $233,792), these financial statements have 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.

The ability of the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern is dependent upon one or more of the following:

  • achieving sufficient future cash flows from operations to enable its obligations to be met;
  • the success of cost saving initiatives, which include entering into Joint Venture arrangements and reducing tenement areas, so as to reduce the carrying and expenditure costs for tenements;
  • cash flows from the sale of any of the Group's assets; and
  • obtaining additional funding from capital raising activities.

The Directors acknowledge that to continue the exploration and development of the Group's exploration projects, the budgeted cash flows from operating and investing activities for the future will necessitate further capital raisings.

The Directors are confident of being able to secure additional funding and believe the entity is a going concern and will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due and payable.

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

Note 5 Going Concern (continued)

At the date of this report and having considered the above factors, the Directors are confident that the Group will be able to continue as a going concern.

In the event that the Group is unable to satisfy future funding requirements, a material uncertainty would arise that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern with the result that the Group may be required to realise its assets at amounts different from those currently recognised, settle liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business and make provisions for costs which may arise as a result of cessation or curtailment of normal business operations.

Note 6 Segment Information

The Group operates solely within one segment, being the mineral exploration industry in Australia.

The increase in the market value of listed equity securities of $14,846 during the half-year has been recorded in the asset revaluation reserve

Fair value hierarchy

AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level in the fair value measurement hierarchy as follows:

  • Level 1 the instrument has quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  • Level 2 a valuation technique is used using inputs other than quoted prices within level 1 that are observable for the financial instrument, either directly (ie, as prices), or indirectly (ie. derived from prices)
  • Level 3 a valuation technique is used using inputs that are not observable based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

As Superior Resources Limited only holds listed equity securities, which are measured at the closing bid price at the end of the reporting period, all financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Note 13 Events Occurring After the Reporting Period

No matter or circumstance has arisen since the end of the half-year, that has significantly affected, or may affect, the operations of the consolidated entity, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the consolidated entity in future financial years.

DIRECTORS' DECLARATION

In the directors' opinion:

    1. the consolidated financial statements and notes set out on pages 4 to 13, are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
    • a) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting; and
    • b) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and
    1. having regard to Note 5 to the financial statements, there are reasonable grounds to believe that the company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable.

This declaration is made in accordance with a resolution of the directors made pursuant to s303(5) of the Corporations Act 2001.

Superior Resources Limited

Independent auditor's review report

Report on the Review of the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Superior Resources Limited (the company) and the entities it controlled at the half-year's end or from time to time during the half year (the consolidated group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2020, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated 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.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Superior Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its performance for the half year ended on that date; and
  • b) complying with Australian Accounting Standard 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 5 in the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss after tax of $333,848 during the half year ended 31 December 2020 and had net cash outflows from operations of $182,074. These events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 5, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the 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 gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

15

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether 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 2020 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.

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.
