4.1 Corporate governance statement

The Company has adopted systems of control and accountability as the basis for the administration of Corporate Governance. Some of these policies and procedures are summarised below.

The Board is committed to administering the policies and procedures with openness and integrity, pursue the true spirit of corporate governance commensurate with the Company's needs. To the extent they are applicable, the Company has adopted the Eight Essential Corporate Governance Principles and Best Practice Recommendations ("Recommendations") as published by ASX Corporate Governance Council.

The Company's Corporate Governance policy is available on the Company's website. As the Company's activities develop in size, nature and scope, the size of the Board and the implemenation of additional corporate governance structures will be given further consideration.

Principle 1– Lay solid foundations for management oversight

The Board and management have agreed on their respective roles and responsibilities and the functions reserved to the Board and management. The Board has established and adopted a Board Charter for this purpose. The Board has also established a Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter which, among other functions, guides the Board in its evaluation of the performance of senior executives.

Principle 2 – Structure the Board to add value

The Board ultimately takes responsibility for corporate governance, and will be accountable to the Shareholder for the performance of the Company. The functions and responsibilities of the Board are set out in the Company's constitution and Corporations Act.

The Board does not currently have a majority of independent directors. It is comprised of one independent director and two nonindependent directors. The existing structure is considered appropriate given the small scale of the Company's enterprise and the associated economic restrictions this places on the Company. The existing structure is aimed at maximising the financial position of the Company by keeping its operating costs to a minimum.

No separate nomination committee has been formed. However, the Company has adopted a Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter. The role of the nomination committee is carried out by the full Board in accordance with the Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter. The Board considers that at this stage, no efficiencies or other benefits would be gained by establishing a separate committee.

Principle 3 – Promote ethical and responsible decision making

All Directors, managers and employees are expected to act with the utmost integrity and objectivity, striving at all times to enhance the reputation and performance of the Company. The Board has established a Code of Conduct to guide the Directors, managers, contractors, employees and officers of the Company. A Share Trading Policy has also been established.

Principle 4 – Safeguard integrity in financial reporting

The Directors require the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer to state in writing to the Board that the Company's financial condition and operational results and is in accordance with relevant accounting standards.

A separate audit committee has not been formed. However, the Company has adopted an Audit Committee Charter. The role of the audit committee is carried out by the full Board in accordance with the Audit Committee Charter. The Board considers that given its size, no efficiencies or other benefits would be gained by establishing a separate audit committee.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

4.1 Corporate governance statement (continued)

Principle 5 – Make timely and balanced disclosure

The Directors are committed to keeping the market fully informed of material developments to ensure compliance with the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act. The Directors have established a written policy and procedure to ensure compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Listing Rules.

Principle 6 – Respect the rights of Shareholders

The Directors have established a communication strategy to promote effective communication with Shareholders and encourage effective participation at general meetings. As well as ensuring timely and appropriate access to information for all investors via announcements to the ASX, the Company will ensure that all relevant documents are released on the Company's website.

Principle 7 – Recognise and manage risk

The Directors have established a Risk Management Policy regarding the oversight and management of material business risks.

Principle 8 – Remunerate fairly and responsibly

A separate remuneration committee has not been formed. However, the Company has adopted a Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter. The role of the Remuneration Committee is carried out by the full Board in accordance with the Nomination and Remuneration Committee charter. The Board considers at this stage, no efficiencies or other benefits would be gained by establishing a separate Committee.

Further information relating to the Company's corporate governance practices and policies has been made publicly available on the Company's website at www.windimurravanadium.com.au.

5 Remuneration report (audited)

5.1 Principles of compensation – audited

Remuneration is referred to as compensation throughout this report.

Key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, including directors of the Company and other executives. Key management personnel comprise the directors and the five most highly remunerated executives for the Company.

Compensation levels for key management personnel and secretaries of the Company and relevant key management personnel of the Company were competitively set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced directors and executives. Where required the remuneration committee obtains independent advice on the appropriateness of compensation packages given trends in comparative companies both locally and internationally and the objectives of the Company's compensation strategy.

The compensation structures explained below was designed to attract suitably qualified candidates, reward the achievement of strategic objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. The compensation structures take into account:

  • the capability and experience of the key management personnel;
  • the key management personnel's ability to control the relevant segment's performance; and
  • the Company's performance.

Compensation packages included a mix of fixed and variable compensation and short-term and long-term performance-based incentives. In addition to their salaries, the Company also provided non-cash benefits to its key management personnel, and contributed to a post-employment defined benefit superannuation plan on their behalf.

Windimurra Vanadium Limited Directors' report (continued) For the year ended 30 June 2011

5 Remuneration Report (continued)

5.1 Principles of compensation – audited

Fixed compensation

Fixed compensation consisted of base compensation (which was calculated on a total cost basis and included any FBT charges related to employee benefits including motor vehicles), as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds.

Compensation levels were reviewed at least annually by the remuneration committee through a process that considers individual, segment and overall performance of the Company. Where necessary, external consultants provided analysis and advice to ensure the directors' and senior executives' compensation were competitive in the market place.

Performance-linked compensation

Other short-term incentive bonuses or cash bonuses were determined by the Remuneration Committee and approved by the Board. Bonuses were based on the individual's performance, as well as the performance or outcomes achieved by the Company.

Other benefits

Key management personnel could receive additional benefits as non-cash benefits, as part of the terms and conditions of their appointment. Non-cash benefits offered to key management personnel typically included payment of car parking. The Company pays fringe benefits tax on these benefits.

The company had not established a policy for lending of funds to key management personnel. No loans were made during the current or prior financial periods and no loans are currently outstanding.

Non-executive directors

During the year ended 30 June 2011 and the year ended 30 June 2010, there were no directors, employees or executives in the Company.

7. Operating and financial review

Overview of the Company

The net loss of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2011 amounted to \$440,226 (2010: loss \$2,309,720).

History, Review of Operations and Subsequent Events

Prior to going into administration, the Company held a 90% interest in the Windimurra Vanadium Mine ("Windimurra Mine"), located some 600km to the north east of Perth and 80km east south east of the town of Mt Magnet in Western Australia. The Windimurra Vanadium Mine hosted one of the largest proven reserves of vanadium reported anywhere in the world.

Administration

On 18 February 2009, the Company advised the ASX that Martin Jones, Darren Weaver and Andrew Saker were appointed as Joint and Several Administrators to its 90% owned subsidiary MidWest Vanadium Pty Ltd. Furthermore, Messrs Martin Madden and Brian McMaster both of KordaMentha , were appointed as Joint and Several Receivers and Managers over the shares the Company owned in its 90% owned subsidiary, MidWest Vanadium Pty Ltd and over all the assets and undertaking of MidWest Vanadium Pty Ltd itself. The securities of the Company were suspended from official quotation on the official list of the ASX on 11 February 2009.

On 3 March 2009, a meeting of the Company's Creditors was convened pursuant to Section 439A of the Corporations Act 2001 to consider, amongst other matters, the execution of a Deed of Company Arrangement to reconstruct and recapitalise the Company.

On 9 December 2009, at a reconvened Creditors meeting, Creditors resolved that the Company enter into a Deed of Company Arrangement ("the original DOCA"). On 31 December 2009 the Company and the Administrators executed the original DOCA and the Administrators became the Deed Administrators of the original DOCA.

In or about March 2010, Trident Capital Pty Ltd made a proposal to reconstruct and recapitalise the Company ("Recapitalisation Proposal").

Pursuant to a resolution at a meeting of the Creditors on 6 May 2010 to consider the variation or termination of the original DOCA in light of Trident Capital Pty Ltd's proposal, the creditors resolved that the Company vary the original DOCA. On 27 May 2010, the Company and the Administrators executed the revised Deed of Company Arrangement ("DOCA") to vary and supersede the original DOCA and the Administrators became the administrators of the DOCA.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

7. Operating and financial review (continued)

History, Review of Operations and Subsequent Events (continued)

The principal features of the Recapitalisation Proposal were as follows:

  • Capital Consolidation The Company's securities being consolidated on a 1:8 basis; Reduction of Capital The capital of the Company being reduced by applying a portion of the accumulated losses of the Company (determined to be \$220,399,903) against the share capital of the Company which is considered permanently lost;
  • Issue of Shares to Strategic Investors The issue of 30,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) for nil consideration to Strategic Investors;
  • Conversion of Convertible Notes The issue of 100,000,000 new shares arising on the conversion of the convertible notes issued by the Company in consideration for \$500,000, with a conversion rate of 1 share for every \$0.005 of the note amounts (post consolidation);
  • Issue of Shares under Prospectus The issue of not less than 200,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) by means of a public offer at one cent per share to raise not less than \$2,000,000 under a prospectus.
  • Appointment of Directors Appointment of new directors and secretary;
  • Right for Directors to apply for Shares The right of the directors to participate in the public issue;
  • Payment to the Claimant Group The payment of \$300,000 to the Badimia Native Title Claimant Group in exchange for the documentation required to obtain the grant of the mining lease M58/272 in accordance with the Deferred Mining Agreement;
  • Payments to the Deed Administrator In accordance with the DOCA, transfer of the proceeds from liquidation of the Company's assets and the amount of \$480,000 from the capital raisings to the Deed Administrators to be applied to the trust fund;
  • Forgiveness of Claims The release of all existing claims against the Company with creditors' claims to be satisfied from the Creditors' trust fund in accordance with the terms of the DOCA and the Creditors Trust Deed.

On 26 February 2013, the terms of the Recapitalisation Proposal which were subject to shareholder approval, were tabled and the resolutions passed at a general meeting of shareholders.

The reduction of capital took effect on 26 February 2013. On 12 March 2013, the Company's securities were consolidated on a 1:8 basis, resulting in a reduction of the number of shares on issue from 154,278,674 to 19,284,366 fully paid ordinary shares.

Due to unforeseen costs and circumstances, the Company determined that it is necessary to increase the amount to be raised under the prospectus to \$2,500,000 to ensure that it has sufficient cash reserves to satisfy ASX's conditions to reinstatement. Accordingly, an additional general meeting of shareholders was held on 14 August 2013 with the following resolutions approved by shareholders:

  • The issue of 100,000,000 new shares arising on the conversion of the convertible notes issued by the Company in consideration for \$500,000 raised from related and non-related parties including Trident Capital Pty Ltd, with a conversion rate of 1 share for every \$0.005 of the note amounts (post consolidation);
  • The issue of up to 250,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) by means of a public offer at one cent per share to raise up to \$2,500,000 under a prospectus;
  • The right of the Directors to participate in the public offer under the prospectus;
  • The issue of 30,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) for nil consideration to Strategic Investors.

Midwest Vanadium

In February 2009, the Company's subsidiary, Midwest Vanadium Pty Ltd ("Midwest"), went into administration. On 25 November 2009, Mineral Resources Limited ("MRL") had entered into a heads of agreement with the receiver of Midwest Vanadium Pty Ltd, to lead a consortium to recapitalise the Windimurra Vanadium project in Western Australia, together with Atlantic Ltd ("Atlantic").

On 24 September 2010, the Deed Administrators, Ferrier Hodgson advised the ASX that the Company had transferred 90,001 shares in Midwest to Atlantic to give effect to the DOCA and financial close between the Company and Midwest. As a result of this, the Company had lost access to the financial information of Midwest and consequently, the Company has not consolidated the financial results and position.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

7. Operating and financial review (continued) History, Review of Operations and Subsequent Events (continued) Officers

On 30 July 2012, Messrs. Paul Price, KC Ong and Ms Paula Cowan were appointed as Directors of the Company. Ms Paige Exley was appointed as Company Secretary.

On 7 November 2012, Ms Paige Exley resigned as Company Secretary of the Company and Ms Nicki Farley was appointed.

8. Dividends

No dividends have been paid or declared by the Company to members during the 2011 or 2010 financial years.

9. Going Concern

Notwithstanding the Company being in administration, the Directors are of the opinion that the Company is a going concern. In forming this opinion, the Directors have taken into account the above matters as well as that:

    1. The Company has successfully issued convertible notes raising \$500,000. The convertible notes were issued in two tranches:
  • Tranche 1 (providing \$150,000) was issued in July 2012; and
  • Tranche 2 (providing \$350,000) was issued in December 2012.

All cash relating to these convertible notes was received prior to the date of issue of this annual report.

    1. If the prospectus for the proposed capital raising and issue of up to 250,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) by means of a public offer at one cent per share to raise up to \$2,500,000 is fully subscribed, then the Company will receive \$2,500,000 before costs of issue. The Directors expect that this amount will be sufficient to enable the Company to pay the costs of the Recapitalisation Proposal, make payments for the benefit of Creditors under the DOCA, pay the Badimia Native Title Claimant Group pursuant to the Deferred Mining Agreement, fund the costs of reviewing and evaluating the Company's Mining Lease M58/272 and provide additional working capital.
    1. The Directors are confident that the Company will be released and discharged of all claims (liabilities) by Creditors through satisfaction of the outstanding conditions of the DOCA, specifically the payment by the Company to the Deed Administrators of \$480,000 from the proceeds of issuing shares under the Prospectus.

In the event that the above initiatives are unsuccessful, in particular the outstanding conditions of the DOCA and the Company's reinstatement with the ASX, there is a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Company will continue as a going concern and therefore the Company may be unable to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the carrying amount and classification of assets or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company not continue as a going concern.

Windimurra Vanadium Limited Directors' report (continued) For the year ended 30 June 2011

10. Future developments

In accordance with the terms of the DOCA, the Company is currently preparing a prospectus for the issue of 250,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares by means of a public offer at one cent per share to raise \$2,500,000.

Funds raised under the prospectus will initially be used to pay the costs of the Recapitalisation Proposal, make payments for the benefit of creditors under the DOCA and pay the Badimia Native Title Claimant Group pursuant to the Deferred Mining Agreement.

Once completed, the Company will seek reinstatement to the Official List of the ASX.

Upon reinstatement to the ASX, the Company will seek to attract a suitable management team to explore and potentially develop the Tenement, Western Australian Mining Lease M58/272. The management team will also investigate the value of the Tenement, particularly in light of Atlantic Ltd's commissioning a vanadium mine adjacent to the Tenement in late 2011 (Atlantic Mine).

In addition to exploring and evaluating the potential of the tenement, once reinstated the Company will also actively pursue new projects in line with its operational history by way of acquisition and/or investment.

11. Directors' interests

There were no relevant interests of each director to be disclosed as there were no directors during the period. The Company went into administration on 18 February 2009.

12. Share options

Options granted to directors and officers of the Company

No options were granted during or since the end of the financial year as the Company went into administration on 18 February 2009.

Unissued shares under options

At the date of this report, there were no unissued ordinary shares of the Company under option as the Company went into administration on 18 February 2009.

13. Indemnification and insurance of officers and auditors

Indemnification

The Company has agreed subject to and so far as may be permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 to indemnify each current director and officer at the date of the report against all liabilities that may arise from their position as directors and officers of the Company. The agreement stipulates that the Company will meet the full amount of any such liabilities, including costs and expenses. No indemnification has been paid with respect to the Company's auditors.

14. Non-audit services

Details of the amounts payable to the auditor of the Company, KPMG, and its related practices for audit services provided during the year are set out below.

14. Non-audit services (continued)

The administrator of the Company determined not to have the Company's financial reports subsequent to 18 February 2009 reviewed or audited. In connection with the Company's proposed capital raising, the Directors sought to remedy this matter by having all reviews and audits brought up to date.

Audit fee of \$65,000 has been recognised in the 30 June 2013 financial statements and represents the fee for the reviews for the half year periods ended 31 December 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012, and audits for the full year ended 30 June 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. The amount noted above represents the portion allocated to the current and prior year.

The Lead auditor's independence declaration is set out on page 35 and forms part of the directors' report for financial year ended 30 June 2011.

1. Reporting entity

This annual financial report includes the financial statements and notes of Windimurra Vanadium Limited ("the Company"). The Company is in administration and is a for-profit entity primarily involved in exploration for mineral reserves and is domiciled in Australia. Its registered address is Level 24, 44 St George's Terrace, Perth, Western Australia.

2. Basis of preparation

(a) Statement of compliance

The annual financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards ('AASBs') (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001. The annual financial report complies with International financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board.

The annual financial report was authorised for issue by the directors on 12th November 2013.

(b) Basis of measurement

The annual financial report has been prepared on the historical cost basis. The methods used to measure fair values are discussed further in note 4.

(c) Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company's functional currency.

(d) Going concern

The financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2011 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

On 11 February 2009, the securities of the Company were suspended from official quotation on the Official List of the ASX and on 18 February 2009, Martin Jones, Darren Weaver and Andrew Saker were appointed as administrators of the Company. In addition, Martin Madden and Brian McMaster of Korda Mentha were appointed Joint and Several Receivers ("the Receivers") over the shares the Company held in its 90% owned subsidiary, MidWest Vanadium Pty Ltd ("MidWest") and over all the assets and undertakings of MidWest.

On 3 March 2009, a meeting of the Company's Creditors was convened pursuant to Section 439A of the Corporations Act 2001 to consider, amongst other matters, the execution of a Deed of Company Arrangement to reconstruct and recapitalise the Company.

On 9 December 2009, at a reconvened Creditors meeting, Creditors resolved that the Company enter into a Deed of Company Arrangement ("the original DOCA"). On 31 December 2009 the Company and the Administrators executed the original DOCA and the Administrators became the Deed Administrators of the original DOCA.

In or about March 2010, Trident Capital Pty Ltd made a proposal to reconstruct and recapitalise the Company ("Recapitalisation Proposal").

Pursuant to a resolution at a meeting of the Creditors on 6 May 2010 to consider the variation or termination of the original DOCA in light of Trident Capital Pty Ltd's proposal, the creditors resolved that the Company vary the original DOCA. On 27 May 2010, the Company and the Administrators executed the revised Deed of Company Arrangement ("DOCA") to vary and supersede the Original DOCA and the Administrators became the administrators of the DOCA.

The principal features of the Recapitalisation Proposal were as follows:

  • Capital Consolidation The Company's securities being consolidated on a 1:8 basis;
  • Reduction of Capital The capital of the Company being reduced by applying a portion of the accumulated losses of the Company (determined to be \$220,399,903) against the share capital of the Company which is considered permanently lost;
  • Issue of Shares to Strategic Investors The issue of 30,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) for nil consideration to Strategic Investors;

For the year ended 30 June 2011

(d) Going concern (continued)

  • Conversion of Convertible Notes The issue of 100,000,000 new shares arising on the conversion of the convertible notes issued by the Company in consideration for \$500,000, with a conversion rate of 1 share for every \$0.005 of the note amounts (post consolidation);
  • Issue of Shares under Prospectus The issue of not less than 200,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) by means of a public offer at one cent per share to raise not less than \$2,000,000 under a prospectus.
  • Appointment of Directors Appointment of new directors and secretary;
  • Right for Directors to apply for Shares The right of the directors to participate in the public issue;
  • Payment to the Claimant Group The payment of \$300,000 to the Badimia Native Title Claimant Group in exchange for the documentation required to obtain the grant of the mining lease M58/272 in accordance with the Deferred Mining Agreement;
  • Payments to the Deed Administrator In accordance with the DOCA, transfer of the proceeds from liquidation of the Company's assets and the amount of \$480,000 from the capital raisings to the Deed Administrators to be applied to the trust fund;
  • Forgiveness of Claims The release of all existing claims against the Company with Creditors' claims to be satisfied from the Creditors' trust fund in accordance with the terms of the DOCA and the Creditors Trust Deed.

On 26 February 2013, the terms of the Recapitalisation Proposal which were subject to shareholder approval, was tabled and the resolutions passed at a general meeting of shareholders.

Due to unforeseen costs and circumstances, the Company determined that it is necessary to increase the amount to be raised under the prospectus to \$2,500,000 to ensure that it has sufficient cash reserves to satisfy ASX's conditions to reinstatement. Accordingly, an additional general meeting of shareholders was held on 14 August 2013 with the following resolutions approved by shareholders:

  • The issue of 100,000,000 new shares arising on the conversion of the convertible notes issued by the Company in consideration for \$500,000 raised from related and non-related parties including Trident Capital Pty Ltd, with a conversion rate of 1 share for every \$0.005 of the note amounts (post consolidation);
  • The issue of up to 250,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) by means of a public offer at one cent per share to raise up to \$2,500,000 under a prospectus;
  • The right of the Directors to participate in the public offer under the prospectus;
  • The issue of 30,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) for nil consideration to Strategic Investors.

As the Company is currently subject to the DOCA, there is a risk that if the terms and conditions of the DOCA are not satisfied, the Company may proceed into administration or liquidation.

ASX requires the Company to obtain the grant of the Windimurra Tenement prior to being reinstated to the Official List, although the Directors are not aware of any reasons why the Minister would reject the application for the Windimurra Tenement, the Minister has discretion under the Mining Act to grant or refuse a mining lease as it thinks fit.

Notwithstanding the Company being in administration, the Directors are of the opinion that the Company is a going concern. In forming this opinion, the Directors have taken into account the above matters as well as that:

    1. The Company has successfully issued convertible notes raising \$500,000. The convertible notes were issued in two tranches:
  • Tranche 1 (providing \$150,000) was issued in July 2012; and
  • Tranche 2 (providing \$350,000) was issued in December 2012.

All cash relating to these convertible notes was received prior to the date of issue of this annual report.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

(d) Going concern (continued)

    1. If the prospectus for the proposed capital raising and issue of up to 250,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (post consolidation) by means of a public offer at one cent per share to raise up to \$2,500,000 is fully subscribed, then the Company will receive \$2,500,000 before costs of issue. The Directors expect that this amount will be sufficient to enable the Company to pay the costs of the Recapitalisation Proposal, make payments for the benefit of Creditors under the DOCA, pay the Badimia Native Title Claimant Group pursuant to the Deferred Mining Agreement, fund the costs of reviewing and evaluating the Company's Mining Lease M58/272 and provide additional working capital.
    1. The Directors are confident that the Company will be released and discharged of all claims (liabilities) by Creditors through satisfaction of the outstanding conditions of the DOCA, specifically the payment by the Company to the Deed Administrators of \$480,000 from the proceeds of issuing shares under the Prospectus.

In the event that the above initiatives are unsuccessful, in particular the outstanding conditions of the DOCA and the Company's reinstatement with the ASX, there is a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Company will continue as a going concern and therefore the Company may be unable to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the carrying amount and classification of assets or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company not continue as a going concern.

3. Significant accounting policies

(a) Financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments comprise investments in equity and debt securities, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, loans and borrowings, and trade and other payables.

Non-derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus, for instruments not at fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition non-derivative financial instruments are measured as described below.

A financial instrument is recognised if the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the Company's contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are accounted for at trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits itself to purchase or sell the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised if the Company's obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits. Accounting for finance income and expense is discussed in note 3(h).

Other

Other non-derivative financial instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

Share Capital

Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

Dividends

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the Company, on or before the end of the financial year but not distributed at balance date.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

(b) Property, plant and equipment Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing items and restoring the site on which they are located. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognised net within "other income" or "other expenses" in the statement of comprehensive income.

Subsequent costs

The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its costs can be measured reliably. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Land is not depreciated.

(c) Operating lease payments

Payments made under operating leases are recognised statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as an integral part of the total lease expense and spread over the lease term.

(d) Exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation costs, comprising net direct costs (including the costs of acquiring licences) and an appropriate portion of related overhead expenditure directly attributable to the exploration property, relating to current areas of interest are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on an area of interest basis. Costs incurred before the Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are recognised in statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights of the area of interest are current and either:

  • (i) the expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest; or
  • (ii) activities in the area of interest have not at the reporting date, reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or other wise of economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.

Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if:

  • sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability; and
  • circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount (see impairment accounting policy 3(g)).

For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which the exploration activity relates. The cash generating unit shall not be larger than the area of interest. Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified from intangible assets to mining property and development assets.

In the event that an area of interest is abandoned, accumulated costs carried forward are written off to the statement of comprehensive income in the year in which that assessment is made. Expenditure is not carried forward in respect of any area of interest, unless the Company's right of tenure to that area of interest is current.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

(e) Impairment

Financial assets

A financial asset is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount, and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost the reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated.

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that are largely independent from other assets and groups. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. 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.

An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

(f) Employee benefits

Wages, salaries, annual leave, sick leave and non-monetary benefits

Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave that are expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date represent present obligations resulting from employees' services provided to reporting date, are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Company expects to pay as at reporting date including related on-costs, such as workers compensation insurance and payroll tax.

Share-based payment transactions

The share option program allows employees to acquire shares of the Company. The fair value of options granted is recognised as an employee expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and spread over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. The fair value of the options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted.

(g) Provisions

A provision is recognised in the statement of financial position when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. 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.

Windimurra Vanadium Limited Notes to the financial statements (continued) For the year ended 30 June 2011

(h) Finance income and expenses

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested, gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and foreign currency gains that are recognised in profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method.

Finance expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions, foreign currency losses, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and impairment losses recognised on financial assets, that are recognised in profit or loss. All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis.

(i) Income tax

Income tax on the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, nor differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

(j) Segment reporting

A segment is a distinguishable component of the Company that is engaged either in providing products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments.

(k) Goods and services tax

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

(l) New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2011 reporting periods. The Company's assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.

(ii) Revised AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures and AASB 2009-12 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards (effective from 1 January 2011). In December 2009 the AASB issued a revised AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures. It is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011 and must be applied retrospectively. The amendment clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related party and removes the requirement for government-related entities to disclose details of all transactions with the government and other governmentrelated entities. The Company will apply the amended standard from 1 July 2011. When the amendments are applied, the Company will need to disclose any transactions between its subsidiaries and its associates. However, there will be no impact on any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

(iii) AASB 2009-14 Amendments to Australian Interpretation – Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement (effective from 1 January 2011). In December 2009, the AASB made an amendment to Interpretation 14 The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction. The amendment removes an unintended consequence of the interpretation related to voluntary prepayments when there is a minimum funding requirement in regard to the entity's defined benefit scheme. It permits entities to recognise an asset for a prepayment of contributions made to cover minimum funding requirements. The Company does not make any such prepayments. The amendment is therefore not expected to have any impact on the Company's financial statements.

(iv) AASB 1053 Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards and AASB 2010-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Reduced Disclosure Requirements (effective from 1 July 2013) On 30 June 2010 the AASB officially introduced a revised differential reporting framework in Australia. Under this framework, a two-tier differential reporting regime applies to all entities that prepare general purpose financial statements. Windimurra Vanadium Limited is listed on the ASX and is not eligible to adopt the new Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements. The two standards will therefore have no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

(v) AASB 2010-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures on Transfers of Financial Assets (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011). Amendments made to AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures in November 2010 introduce additional disclosures in respect of risk exposures arising from transferred financial assets. The amendments will affect particularly entities that sell, factor, securitise, lend or otherwise transfer financial assets to other parties. They are not expected to have any significant impact on the Company's disclosures.

(vi) AASB 2010-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets (effective from 1 January 2012). In December 2010, the AASB amended AASB 112 Income Taxes to provide a practical approach for measuring deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets when investment property is measured using the fair value model. The Company does not hold investment property. The amendment is therefore not expected to have any impact on the Company's financial statements.

4. Determination of fair values

A number of the Company's accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and / or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Trade and other receivables

The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

4. Determination of fair values (continued)

Non-derivative financial liabilities

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. In respect of the liability component of convertible notes, the market rate of interest is determined by reference to similar liabilities that do not have a conversion option.

Share-based payment transactions

The fair value of employee stock options is measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value.

The fair value of share based payments is measured using the market price of the listed shares on the date of issue.

Financial guarantees

For financial guarantee contract liabilities, the fair value at initial recognition are determined using a probability weighted discounted cash flow approach. This method takes into account the probability of default by the guaranteed party over the term of the contract, the loss given default (being the proportion of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered in the event of default) and exposure at default (being the maximum loss at the time of default).

5. Financial risk management

Overview

The Company has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:

  • credit risk
  • liquidity risk

This note presents information about the Company's exposure to each of the above risks, its objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout this annual financial report.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework.

Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's activities. The Company aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.

The Board of Directors oversee how management monitors compliance with the Company's and risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers and investment securities.

For the year ended 30 June 2011

5. Financial risk management (continued) Trade and other receivables

The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company's reputation.

The Company continually monitors its cash flow requirements. Typically the Company ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses for a period of 90 days, including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises as a result of the fluctuations in variable interest rates.

6. Segment reporting

The Company operated in one industry being mining and mineral exploration and in the one geographical segment, Australia.
