COMPANY SECRETARY

Mr Ranko Matic was appointed the position of company secretary on 1 July 2014.

Prior to his appointment Roland Berzins and David Ballantyne were joint company secretaries from the beginning of the financial year until their resignation on 1 July 2014.

OPERATING RESULTS

The loss of the consolidated entity amounted to \$2,775,029 (2013: \$3,933,116) after providing for income tax and eliminating non-controlling equity interests.

DIVIDENDS

No dividends were paid or declared since the start of the financial year. No dividend has been recommended.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The principle continuing activities of the Company during the financial period were the exploration and acquisition of petroleum and gas properties.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The Company continues to identify and develop opportunities within the established strategy in both the deep water exploration and near term exploration/appraisal targeting the Caribbean and northern South America.

The company is seeing excellent near term exploration / appraisal options in onshore South America with the potential to add a base level of value into the company. These near term opportunities are onshore with a low entry cost leading to drilling and the company has two active negotiations ongoing looking to complete in the first quarter 2015.

In the greater Caribbean the company has three active bids with negotiations in progress and intends to secure one high impact exploration block which has potential to add high multiples of value into the company in the first half 2015.

In line with our strategy to draw on alliances to support bids for acreage with Governments and deliver work programs efficiently, Antilles has finalised agreements with Multi Client Geophysical (MCG) of Norway to cooperate in exploration efforts in the Caribbean where both companies see areas of high potential. This compliments the other two alliances that have been put in place over the past 4 months with AGR FJ Brown, Inc (drilling) and Polarcus (3D seismic).

The Company continues its strategic review of existing Texan assets in the Midland Basin.

FINANCIAL POSITION

The net assets of the consolidated entity have increased to \$3,163,895 as at 31 December 2014, an increase of \$11,040,030 from net liabilities of \$7,876,135 at 31 December 2013.

The consolidated entity's net working capital, being current assets less current liabilities is a surplus of \$2,298,038 (2013: deficit \$8,615,886).

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

The directors are not aware of any other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the financial year which significantly affected or may significantly 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.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS

The Directors believe, on reasonable grounds, that to include in this report particular information regarding likely developments in the operations of the Company and the expected results of those operations in future financial years would be speculative and likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Company. Accordingly, this information has not been included in this report.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION

The Company's operations are not regulated by any significant environmental regulation under a law of the Commonwealth or of a State or Territory. The directors have considered the enacted National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (the NGER Act) which introduces a single national reporting framework for the reporting and dissemination of information about the greenhouse gas emissions, greenhouse gas projects, and energy use and production of corporations. At the current stage of development, the directors have determined that the NGER Act will have no effect on the Company for the current or subsequent financial year. The directors will reassess this position as and when the need arises.

The Group's US operations are subject to various environmental regulations under the Federal and State Laws of United States of America. The majority of the company's activities involve low level disturbance associated with its production facilities and exploration drilling programs. As at the date of this report the consolidated entity complies fully with all such regulations.

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited)

This report details the nature and amount of the remuneration for each Key Management Person ('KMP') of the consolidated entity for year ended 31 December 2014.

The remuneration report is set out under the following headings:

• A Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
• B Details of remuneration
• C Service agreements
• D Share-based compensation
• E Shareholdings
• F Performance rights holdings
• G \$0.01 Partly paid ordinary shares
• H Convertible preference shares

The information provided under headings A-I includes remuneration disclosures that are required under accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures. These disclosures have been transferred from the financial report and have been audited.

A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The Board of Directors is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for KMP. It assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emoluments of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of high quality KMP.

The objective of the consolidated entity's executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and conforms with market best practice for delivery of reward. The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:

• Competitiveness and reasonableness
• Acceptability to shareholders
• Transparency
• Capital management

The Board policy is to remunerate non executive directors at fair market rates for comparable companies for the relevant 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. The maximum amount of fees that can be paid to directors is subject to approval by shareholders at General Meetings.

Fees for non-executive directors are currently not linked to the financial performance of the Consolidated entity. However, to align director's interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and may be issued with additional securities as deemed appropriate.

The Board believes that the remuneration policy is appropriate given the stage of development of the Company and the activities which it undertakes and is appropriate for aligning KMP objectives with shareholder and business objectives. The Board will continue to develop new practices which are appropriate to the Company's size and stage of development.

Fixed remuneration

Fixed remuneration consists of a base remuneration package, which includes directors' fees (in the case of Directors), salaries, consulting fees and employer contributions to superannuation funds.

Fixed remuneration levels for KMP officers will be reviewed annually by the Board through a process that considers the employee's personal development, achievement of key performance objectives for the year, industry benchmarks wherever possible and CPI data.

Appropriate key performance indicators (KPIs) will be developed by the Board for each KMP each year, and reflect an assessment of how that individual can fulfil their particular responsibilities in a way that best contributes to Company performance and shareholder wealth in that year.

Performance-based Remuneration

The Company currently has no specific performance based remuneration plan. During the year the Company issued performance rights to two directors (details shown in "Details of Remuneration" below) which were issued with appropriate shareholder approvals.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

COMPLIANCE WITH ASX CORPORATE GOVERNANCE RECOMMENDATIONS

APPROACH TO CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

In recognising the need for the highest standards of corporate behaviour and accountability, the Directors of Antilles Oil and Gas NL (Antilles), support and adhere to the principles of sound corporate governance. The Board recognises the recommendations of the Australian Securities Exchange Corporate Governance Council, and considers that the Company is in compliance with those guidelines, to the extent possible, which are of importance to the commercial operation of a junior resource company.

The board of directors of Antilles is responsible for the Corporate Governance of the Company. The board guides and monitors the business and the affairs of the Company on behalf of the shareholders, by whom they were elected and to whom they are responsible.

In accordance with the Council's recommendations, the Company has followed the guidelines during this period. Where a recommendation is not followed, that fact must be disclosed, together with the reason for the departure.

The table below summarises the Company's compliance with the Corporate Governance Council's Recommendations:

Principles and Recommendations Compliance			Comply
	Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management and oversight
1.1	Establish the functions reserved to the Board of directors ("Board") of Antilles ("the Company") and those delegated to Senior executives and disclose those functions.	The Board is responsible for the overall corporate governance of the Company. The Board has adopted a Board charter that formalises its roles and responsibilities and defines the matters that are reserved for the Board and specific matters that are delegated to management. On appointment of a director, the Company issues a letter of appointment setting out the terms and conditions of the appointment to the Board.	Complies
1.2	Disclose the process for evaluating the performance of senior executives	The board only employ's one senior executive employee and the Board is responsible for reviewing the performance of the senior executives but does not have a formal procedure in place.	Does not comply.
	Does not comply. However the Board continually monitors the behaviour of its senior executives / directors and discusses with them all aspects of their activities with regard to the Company.
1.3	Provides the information indicated in Guide to reporting on Principle 1.	A summary of the Board's functions and responsibilities is summarised in this Corporate Governance Statement. The Boards charter is also available on request.	Complies
	Principle 2 – Structure the board to add value
2.1	A majority of the Board should be independent directors	An Antilles director is considered independent when he or she is independent of management (that is, non-executive), and free from any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with, or could be reasonably perceived to materially interfere with, the exercise of his or her unfettered and independent judgement. Materiality is considered on a case by case basis by reference to the director's individual circumstances rather than general materiality thresholds. The Antilles Board has made its own assessment to determine the independence of each director on the board. In essence a non-executive director is deemed independent, if the director does not fail any of the following materiality thresholds: • less than 10% of the Company shares are held by the director and any entity or individual directly or indirectly associated with the director; • no sales are made to or purchases made from any entity or individual director or indirectly associated with the director; and • none of the directors' income of an individual or entity directly or indirectly associated with the director is received from a contract with any member of the economic entity other than income which is derived as a director of the entity. Currently, Antilles has three non-executive positions on the board of the total four positions.	Complies

2.3	independent director. The roles of the chair and chief executive officer should not be exercised by the same individual	The Non-executive Chairman is separate to the Managing Director.	Complies
2.4	The Board should establish a nominations committee	The Board has not established a nomination committee. Given the present size of the Company, the Board has decided that a nomination committee is not appropriate. The functions of the nomination committee are carried out by the full Board.	Does not comply
2.5	Disclose the process for evaluating the performance of the Board, its committees and individual directors.	The Company did not conduct a formal performance evaluation of the board and has not adopted a performance evaluation policy.	Does not comply. Refer to 1.2 above.
2.6	Provide the information indicated in the Guide to reporting Principle 2.	This information has been disclosed (where applicable) in the Directors report attached to the Corporate Governance statement. The Board carries out the functions of the nominations committee. In accordance with the information suggested in the Guide to reporting on Principle 2, the Company has disclosed full details of its directors in the Directors report attached to the Corporate Governance Statement. Other disclosure material as suggested in the Guide to reporting Principle 2 is available upon request.	Does not comply.
	Principle 3 – Promote ethical and responsible decision making.
3.1	Establish a code of conduct and disclose the code or a summary of the code as to: • the practice necessary to maintain confidence in the Company's integrity; • the practice necessary to take into account their legal obligations and the reasonable expectations of the shareholders; • the responsibility and accountability of the individuals for reporting and investigating reports of unethical practices.	As part of the board's commitment to the high standards of conduct, the Company has established operating protocols to deal with various issues including: • conflicts of interest; • employment practices; • fair trading; • health and safety; and • relations with customers and suppliers. These are designed to: • clarify the standards of ethical behaviour required of the board, senior managers and employees and encourage compliance with those standards; and • assist the company to comply with its legal obligations and have regard to the reasonable expectations of shareholders.	Complies
3.2	Establish a policy concerning the diversity and the policy or a summary of the policy. The policy should include requirements of the board to establish measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity for the board and to assess annually both the objectives and progress in achieving them.	At this stage, the Board does not consider it relevant to establish a diversity policy as the Company has only one direct employee, but instead has administrative and technical services provided to it by consultants	Does not comply.
3.3	Disclose in each annual report the measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity set by the board in accordance with the diversity policy and progress towards achieving them.	The Company does not have a diversity policy and, consequently, did not disclose any measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity.	Does not comply.
3.4	Companies should disclose in each annual report the proportion of women employees in the whole organisation, women in senior executive positions and women on the board.	There is currently 1 permanent employee at Antilles, including one executive director. There are also three non executive directors. None of these positions are held by women.	Complies

These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Antilles Oil and Gas NL (or 'the company') and its controlled entities (the "consolidated entity" or "group"). The separate financial statements of the parent entity, Antilles Oil and Gas NL have not been presented within this financial report as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 2 February 2015 by the directors of the company.

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of Preparation

The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards, Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board ("AASB") and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The consolidated entity is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. Except for cash flow information, these financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

a) Comparatives

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

b) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all entities controlled by Antilles Oil and Gas NL at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Antilles has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity's activities. Control will generally exist where the parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting power of an entity. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are also considered.

Where controlled entities have entered or left the group during the year, the financial performance of those entities are included only for the period of the year that they were controlled.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated entity have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity.

Non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are shown separately within the Equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The non-controlling interests in the net assets comprise their interests at the date of the original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date.

c) Business Combinations

Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses and results in the consolidation of its assets and liabilities. A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control. The acquisition method requires that for each business combination one of the combining entities must be identified as the acquirer (i.e. parent entity). The business combination will be accounted for as at the acquisition date, which is the date that control over the acquiree is obtained by the parent entity. At this date, the parent shall recognise, in the consolidated financial statements, and subject to certain limited exceptions, the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In addition, contingent liabilities of the acquiree will be recognised where a present obligation has been incurred and its fair value can be reliably measured.

The acquisition may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. The method adopted for the measurement of goodwill will impact on the measurement of any non-controlling interest to be recognised in the acquiree where less than 100% ownership interest is held in the acquiree.

The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial statements. Consideration may comprise the sum of the assets transferred by the acquirer, liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the acquirer.

Fair value uplifts in the value of pre-existing equity holdings are taken to the statement of comprehensive income. Where changes in the value of such equity holdings had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income, such amounts are recycled to profit or loss.

Included in the measurement of consideration transferred is any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Any obligation incurred relating to contingent consideration is classified as either a financial liability or equity instrument, depending upon the nature of the arrangement. Rights to refunds of consideration previously paid are recognised as a receivable. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or a liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value through the statement of comprehensive income unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the statement of comprehensive income.

d) Income tax

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting date arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:

• − Except where the deferred 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 tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:

• − Except where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference 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 the taxable profit or loss; and
• − In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests and joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future extent that it is probable that the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting 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 tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred 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 reporting date.

Deferred and income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised directly in equity.

e) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and Presentation Currency

The functional currency of each of the entities in the consolidated entity is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentation currency.

Transactions and Balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Nonmonetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised directly in the statement of comprehensive income except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in statement of comprehensive income.

Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the presentation currency are translated as follows:

• − assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;
• − income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and
• − retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with functional currencies other than Australian dollars are recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.

f) Trade receivables

All trade debtors are recognised at the amounts receivable as they are due for settlement no more than 120 days from the date of recognition.

Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when some doubt as to collection exists and in any event when the debt is more than 60 days overdue.

g) Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and discontinued operations

Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as deferred tax assets, assets arising from employee benefits and financial assets that are carried at fair value and contractual rights under insurance contracts, which are specifically exempt from this requirement.

h) Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset's employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

The depreciable amount of all plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the economic entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

The expected useful lives are as follows:

−	Office equipment	2 - 5 years
−	Software	2.5 years

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income.

i) Impairment of assets

Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

j) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by the consolidated entity during the reporting period which remains unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amount being normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

k) Exploration and evaluation expenditure

Oil and gas exploration costs are capitalised, provided the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current and either:

• − The exploration costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or, alternatively, by its sale; or
• − Exploration activities in the area of interest have, at the reporting date, reached a stage that permitted a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or relation to, the areas of interest is continuing.

Some exploration expenditure is expensed to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income where it doesn't qualify for capitalisation under the relevant standard.

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandon area are written off in full against profit in the period in which the decision to abandon the area is made.

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.

Restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs necessitated by exploration activities are capitalised as oil and gas exploration costs.

l) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with short periods to maturity and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

m) Revenue and Other Income

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as the provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets, is the rate inherent in the instrument.

n) Employee benefits

Provision is made for the consolidated entity's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. 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. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wages increases and the probability that the employee may satisfy vesting requirements. Those cash outflows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash flows.

Equity-settled compensation

From time to time, the Group provides benefits to employees (including directors) of the Group in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby personnel 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. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using the Black & Scholes method.

In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance 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.

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 recognized for the award is recognised immediately unless the original vesting conditions are not market related and those conditions have not been met. 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.

o) Goods and services tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office ("ATO"). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.

Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

p) Earnings per share

(i) Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net profit after income tax attributable to members of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.

(ii) Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

q) Segment reporting

A business segment is identified for a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different to those of other business segments. A geographical segment is identified when products or services are provided within a particular economic environment subject to risks and returns that are different from those of segments operating in other economic environments.

r) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

s) New accounting standards and interpretations

The adoption of new accounting standards applicable to the Group for the first time in 2014 has not had a material on the financial statements. The Group has chosen not to early-adopt any accounting standards that have been issued, but are not yet effective. The impact of accounting standards that have been issued, but are not yet effective, is not material to these financial statements.

t) Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the consolidated entity.

There have been no judgements, apart from those involving estimation, in applying accounting policies that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements.

Following is a summary of the key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation at reporting date that have not been disclosed elsewhere in these financial statements.

Estimated impairment

The Group tests annually deferred oil and gas exploration costs for indicators of impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1 (i). The recoverability of deferred oil and gas exploration expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself, or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related oil and gas asset through sale.

Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes, future legal costs, future changes to the legal environment in which the Group's projects are located, and changes to commodity prices.

To the extent that capitalised oil and gas exploration expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, profits and net assets are reduced in the period in which the determination is made.

Taxation

The Group is subject to income taxes in Australia and jurisdictions where it has foreign operations. Significant judgement is required in determining the worldwide provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Share based payment transactions

The company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using an appropriate valuation model. Management are required to make judgements on the probabilities of milestones being achieved to calculate the value of the transactions.

2. Segment Information

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Board of Directors as it makes the strategic decisions. The Group has adopted a 'management approach', under which segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. The segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.

12. Issued Capital (continued)

c) Capital Management

The objectives of management when managing capital is to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, so that the Group may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

Due to the nature of the Group's activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group's capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the Group to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. The Group's strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. The working capital position of the Company at 31 December 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

Performance rights exercisable as at 31 December 2014:	12,600,000

The Performance Rights (PRs) will convert into shares provided the milestones set out below are achieved within three (3) years from their date of issue:

• (i) the Class A PRs will vest and convert to an equivalent number of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company on the acquisition of a project by the Company in the South American/Caribbean region with significant exploration and/or exploitation potential (Milestone 1); and
• (ii) the Class B PRs will vest and convert to an equivalent number of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, after the date of issue of the Class B Performance Rights, on the completion of a further capital raising by the Company in excess of A\$10,000,000 or the Company achieving a market capitalisation of greater than A\$30,000,000 for five consecutive trading days (Milestone 2).

The fair value of the PRs granted during the financial year was \$1,502,400 (2013: nil) and is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. PRs granted during the year were valued at the date the PRs were approved by shareholders. The probabilities used in the valuation has been based on management's best estimate for the probability of meeting the milestones. The fair value of the Class A PRs has been discounted by 20% to reflect the probability of not meeting the milestones and Class B by 50%.

21. Financial Risk Management

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and other price risks, and aging analysis for credit risk.

Risk management is carried out by the Board of Directors.

(a) Market risk

(i) Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk arises from commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency.

The Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk at the reporting date is limited to the transfer of funding from the Australian head office to fund the US operations.

The American subsidiaries are not exposed to foreign exchange risk as all transactions are denominated in its functional currency being US dollars.

(ii) Price risk

Over the reporting period, the Company did not have any oil and gas production and was therefore not exposed to movements in the price of oil and gas. The Company therefore has no requirement to mitigate oil and gas price risk. Group sensitivity

As the Company did not receive any revenue from the sale of oil and gas, it is not considered necessary to review sensitivities to movements in oil and gas prices.

(iii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from both short and long-term borrowings and cash at bank. Borrowings issued at variable rates would expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. During 2014 and 2013, the Group had no borrowings at a variable rate of interest. The Group reviews its arrangements on a regular basis. The Group had no fixed rate Borrowings as at 31 December 2014.

Group sensitivity

At 31 December 2014 and 2013, if interest rates had changed by -/+ 10% from the year-end rates with all other variables held constant, post-tax loss for the year would have been materially the same.

21. Financial Risk Management (continued)

(b) Credit risk

The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. As the Group does not presently have any debtors, significant stock levels or any other significant financial assets, a formal credit risk management policy is not maintained.

(c) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and/or the capacity to raise additional equity. As an oil and gas producer, the Group has aimed to maintain flexibility in funding by keeping committed credit lines available with a variety of counterparties. In light of the Company's current activities, the need to maintain a diverse range of funding maturities has been diminished.

(i) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyses the Group's material financial liabilities based on the remaining period at the reporting date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows as at 31 December 2014 and are no different to the carrying values.

(d) Fair value estimation

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. The Group uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance date. Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments are used for long-term debt instruments held. Other techniques, such as estimated discounted cash flows, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments.

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments.

22. Discontinued Operations

On 6 June 2014 the Company disposed of its 100% interest in Celiastad Pty Ltd (which had a 100% interest in Celiastad Holdings Ltd, which in turn had a 100% interest in Epic Energy Ukraine LLC), thereby discontinuing its operations in this business segment.

Financial information relating to the discontinued operations to the date of loss of control is set out below.

The financial performance of the discontinued operations to the date of loss of control, which is included in loss from discontinued operations per the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, is as follows:

	2014	2013

23. Related Party Transactions

a) Transactions with related parties

Directors and officers, or their personally-related entities, hold positions in other entities that result in them having control or significant influence over the financial or operating policies of those entities. A number of these entities transacted with the Company in the reporting period. The terms and conditions of these transactions, which involved primarily the Companies, charged by related entities for office, administration and company secretarial services, and for travel and accommodation costs, were no more favourable than those available, or which might reasonably be expected to be available, on similar transactions to unrelated entities on an arm's length basis.

The amounts charged during the year to related entities and the trading balances outstanding at the 31 December 2014 are detailed below:

AAG Management Pty Ltd and GCP Capital Ltd are management companies with which Mr Anthony Short is a director of both companies. They provide facilities, human resources, and other administration and consulting services. During the year payments for these services amounted to \$64,818 (2013: \$351,720).

During the year, there were payments made to Capital and Corporate Advisors Pty Ltd, company with which Mr Matic is a shareholder and director. The payments are for the provision of corporate secretarial and accounting services and amounted to \$61,943 (2013: nil).

In prior years Sealblue Investments Pty Ltd, an entity related to the Company via Roland Berzins (Company Secretary until 1 July 2014, Director of Sealblue Investments) had charged consultancy fees to the Company. This year there were no payments to Sealblue Investments (2013: \$55,000).
