Davenport Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2018
Review of Operations
The six months period to 31 December 2018 saw the Company continue to evaluate an extensive suite of potential potash projects within its mining and exploration licence areas spread across a total of 650 square kilometres in Thüringia, Germany. Davenport owns 3 perpetual mining licences and 2 exploration licences. (Figure 1)

Using historic data from drillholes sunk by the former East German state potash mining company, some of which were drilled as recently as the 1980’s, two out of the three perpetual licence areas owned by Davenport were confirmed in 2018 by consultants Micon International Co. Limited (“Micon”) as Inferred Resources under the Joint Ore Reserves Committee Code (JORC 2012). The Inferred Resource for the Ebeleben minng licence area was announced in April 2018 and described in the previous half-yearly report. The Inferred Resources for the Southern (Mühlhausen-Keula) and Northern (Nohra-Elende) parts of the overall Mühlhausen-Nohra licence area were announced in October 2018 and November 2018 respectively, bringing the total Inferred resources held by the company to over 3.4 billion tonnes containing 10.5% K2O (Table 1).

Table 1: Total JORC 2012 Inferred Resource to 31 December 2018 held by Davenport.
During the reporting period, the Company purchased the results of historic potash drilling in the Küllstedt exploration licence area, bringing the total number of drillholes data available to Davenport to over 200. As a result of this, the Company expects to convert a large portion of the Küllstedt area to an Inferred resource under JORC 2012 during the first quarter of 2019. An exploration target for the central portion of the Mühlhausen area is also anticipated for announcement in early 2019. This area had insufficient drill spacing to be included in the Nohra-Elende resource.
No other exploration activities were conducted in the Küllstedt or Grafentonna areas during the reporting period.
Other activities
Davenport continues to work with London-based Bacchus Capital Advisers (ASX announcement 6[th] September 2018) for the provision of strategic, financial and corporate advisory services.
Davenport has appointed Perth-based IR advisors Chapter One Limited to assist in the marketing of Davenport Resources to an Australian and European investor audience. Under their guidance, an extensive marketing roadshow was conducted in the major Australian cities during November.
Davenport was also represented at the Mines and Money conference in London during late November where the MD, Dr Chris Gilchrist, delivered the company’s presentation on two occasions to receptive audiences. Davenport also staffed a booth at the accompanying trade show which was very well attended and attracted a high level of investor interest, all of which is currently being followed up.
Matters subsequent to the end of the financial period
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 31 December 2018 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the Company's operations, the results of those operations, or the Company's state of affairs in future financial years.

Davenport Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 31 December 2018
Note 1. Significant accounting policies
These general purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2018 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.
These general purpose financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the Davenport Resources Limited financial report for the year ended 30 June 2018.
The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, unless otherwise stated.
New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The Company has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
The Company applied AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with customers (AASB 15) and AASB 9 Financial instruments (AASB9) for the first time from 1 July 2018. The nature and effect of these changes as a result of the adoption of these new standards are described below. Other than the changes described below, the accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year. Several other amendments and interpretations applied for the fist time in the current period, but did not have an impact on the financial statements of the Company and, hence, have not been disclosed. The Company has not early adopted any standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but not yet effective.
AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with customers
The Company adopted AASB 15 from 1 July 2018, however, there was no impact on adoption as the Company does not recognise any income other than interest income which is excluded from the scope of AASB 15.
AASB 9 Financial instruments
The Company adopted AASB 9 from 1 July 2018, however, the impact of adoption was not material.
Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. No significant impact on the accounting policies of the Company is expected from the adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations.

Davenport Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 31 December 2018
Going concern
For the half-year ended 31 December 2018, the consolidated entity incurred a total comprehensive loss of $890,895(2017: $563,448) and incurred cash outflows from operations of $926,608 ($2017: $486,725). As at 31 December 2018, the consolidated entity had accumulated losses of $5,413,696 (2017: $3,627,001).
Directors are aware that additional capital would be required to meet operational costs and to advance the exploration projects. Having carefully assessed the uncertainties relating to the likelihood of securing additional funding and the consolidated entity’s ability to effectively manage its operations and working capital requirements, the directors believe that the consolidated entity will continue to operate as a going concern and that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis which assumes the realisation of assets and the extinguishment of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The half-year financial report does not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Note 2. Segment reporting
The Consolidated entity has based its operating segment on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the executive management team (“Chief Operating Decision Makers”) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.
The Consolidated entity currently does not have production and is only involved in exploration. As a consequence activities in the operating segment are identified by management based on the manner in which resources are allocated, the nature of the resources provided and the identity of manager and country of expenditure. Information is reviewed on a whole of entity basis.
Based on these criteria, the Consolidated entity only has one operating segment, being exploration, and the segment operations and results are reported internally based on the accounting policies as described in note 1 for the computation of the Consolidated entity’s results presented in this set of financial statements.

Exploration programs in each area of interest continue but have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of economically recoverable reserves. The ultimate recoupment of these costs is dependent on the successful development and exploration of the respective areas of interest for which additional capital will be needed.
