LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholder

At the time of writing this report one could be forgiven for believing that the world has lost its balance. Whole countries are beleaguered, trends are confused and above all leadership and direction are not evident.

On top of all that our iron ore industry is battling popular reaction to a price adjustment that has been under way for several months but in August showed a fairly sharp reduction to below USD100 per tonne FOB. A ten per cent recovery recently has not done much to ease the fears which appear to revolve around concerns that the price may settle below USD120, being the conjectured average cost price for domestic Chinese producers.

As far as one can tell, published mine costs (for other than BHPB and Rio) are of the order of AUD45 per tonne. A gross margin of almost 100% is clearly still available even at USD100. Not a bad business even then! A quick check on total costs for a couple of other companies shows total annual costs at around AUD88 per tonne. This figure includes a significant overhead that reflects the runaway costs of the industry which is perhaps overdue for attention.

Regardless, your company’s year has been one of steady progress. We have a JORC resource of 353 million tonnes of magnetite and an initial JORC resource of 2.1 million tonnes of hematite. Current work is planned to extend our hematite resource to ascertain whether a low cost hematite DSO operation can be mounted from the Yilgarn region.

Prior to balance date we made a new placement representing 13% of issued capital to Shinewarm Limited (“Shinewarm”) at above the then market price of quoted shares. This reflects, we believe, the credible assessment of your company made by parties close to the iron ore business. Shinewarm are also willing to support further funding for project development as we go forward.

Shareholder support has been distinctive all year and we thank all our shareholders for that. We have not changed our fundamental purpose to get into the operating iron ore business as rapidly as possible and your support is an important component of that objective.

The Board and my personal thanks go to Managing Director Jon Lea and his staff for a focussed and hardworking effort all year. That is what makes a company different and special and it is rewarding to be part of a good team.

My personal thanks also to my fellow Board members who are seriously committed to guiding the company, and who unhesitatingly provide their time and advice.

Yours faithfully,

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Overview

Radar was listed on the ASX in December 2010 and is focused on identifying and defining hematite and magnetite resources in the central Yilgarn region of Western Australia. The Company has an extensive package of tenements situated nearby operating hematite mines in an area rapidly being developed as the next major iron ore province in Western Australia.

Radar’s overall exploration objectives are:

  • To explore and define iron ore resources

  • To continue exploration on the tenement holdings to identify all potential targets and ensure continuity in drill testing opportunity

  • To acquire as available new tenements prospective for iron ore that have potential to increase shareholder value

Since listing, 6 drill programmes have been undertaken (totalling approximately 26,000m) aimed at identifying areas with potential to host hematite and magnetite mineralisation. Two mineral resources have been defined to date:

  • The Muldoon deposit – a direct shipping hematite deposit in the Johnston Range project area

  • The Die Hardy deposit – a magnetite resource in the Die Hardy area.

Both deposits have the potential to increase in size with further drilling. Radar is focussing on hematite deposit identification and drilling at further targets in the Johnston Range area and elsewhere. Wide spaced drill results returned to date indicate the potential for further discrete hematite deposits.

Targeting for drill holes has resulted from the culmination of surface geological mapping, geophysical data. Ongoing ground magnetic processes, coupled with continuing data review and scout drilling results are expected to enable a continuing series of potential hematite targets to be identified in the coming year.

An expansion of the capacity to the Port of Esperance has been flagged as having high priority by the Western Australian Government: Radar intends to prove up resources and develop a hematite mining operation over the next two years to be ready for production by the time the Port has additional capacity, and hence intends to carry out a feasibility study aimed at assessing this potential. This will involve metallurgical, mining and processing studies along with identifying the optimal infrastructure options.

Johnston Range

Hematite Targets

Radar’s focus for much of the last year has been the identification and drill testing of hematite targets in the Johnston Range Project area. Multiple hematite targets (generated through a combination of geological mapping and aero-magnetic and gravity geophysical interpretation) have been identified with zones of surface hematite enrichment up to approximately 800m in length defined by mapping.

The prospects lie around the Horse Well Anticline that defines the 40km long belt of banded iron formation (BIF) on the Johnston Range tenements (Figure 3). The Johnston Range is comprised of multiple bands of BIF which represents a target of several hundred linear kilometres of BIF with potential for hematite enrichment.

Three RC drilling programmes were undertaken in the reporting period for a total of 157 holes for 9837m. The drilling initially tested near-to-surface zones of hematite mineralisation, which could be mineable through shallow open pit operations. Subsequent drilling programmes focussed on the Muldoon prospect and culminated in there being sufficient data for the estimation of a maiden JORC reportable Inferred Resource at a 55% Fe cut-off grade of 2.1 million tonnes at 57.6% Fe. At lower cut-off grades the mineralisation inventory exceeds 3Mt at 56% Fe.

The Muldoon mineralisation is defined in two zones, lying approximately 60m apart with the western zone approximately 1000m long, 10-15m wide, and was drilled to 30-35m depth and the eastern zone 600m long, 10-20m wide, and drilled to 35-40m depth.

6

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)

The result are considered to be highly encouraging as the near surface mineralisation presents potential for a low cost development opportunity using open cut mining methods.

As sub-grade material and mineralisation with higher levels of contaminants was also intercepted in some locations, a metallurgical study was commissioned to determine whether this mineralisation can be upgraded by relatively simple processes. Results for this are expected to be received in the second half of 2012 and could lead ultimately to a larger resource base and a higher quality product.

A number of other hematite targets have been identified at Johnston Range, and in some cases already partially drill tested, that require further evaluation to establish their economic potential. To assist in targeting further drilling a trial programme of ground magnetics and ground electro-magnetics commenced. The results suggest that ground magnetics provides a valuable tool for the identification of potential hematite mineralisation and further surveying programmes are ongoing. The results will be interpreted and used in conjunction with mapping and other data to define targets for future drill testing.

Radar is aiming at identifying 8-10Mt at 55-60% Fe* in coming months and to be able to move to project development in 2013. The expectation is that a number of 2-5Mt bodies of hematite will be defined. Given the proximity to infrastructure and planned development of the Esperance Port – a hematite iron ore export operation is considered possible in the medium term.

  • Radar Iron advises that the potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as exploration target potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)

Magnetite Targets

A geophysical review of the aero-magnetic data covering the Johnston Range project was completed by independent geophysical consultants in 2011, as reported previously and was aimed at identifying areas in the 35km Johnston Range BIF with greater potential to host significant mineralisation and to better define exploration targets.

The results were:

  1. Primary Magnetite BIF: 4.0Bt - 6.7Bt at 20-45% Fe 2. Potential Enriched Material: 370Mt - 617Mt at 40-65% Fe 3. Total Exploration Potential: 4.4Bt - 7.3Bt at 20-65% Fe

Radar Iron advises that the potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as exploration target potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

The huge potential resource size and results to date clearly justify further work. Given the focus on hematite mineralisation and the previous focus on the Die Hardy magnetite mineralisation, no significant work has been undertaken to assess this potential.

Die Hardy Project

The potential for a major body of magnetite mineralisation at the Die Hardy Range was identified in 2010 through reconnaissance mapping. The prospect, approximately 3.4km long, was given the initial name of ‘Lara’. Two RC drill holes were completed in late 2010 to provide initial samples of the mineralisation for metallurgical testing. Both assay results and the preliminary metallurgical test work were highly encouraging. Further drilling was planned and a number of botanical surveys completed earlier in 2011 to facilitate drill approvals.

Based on encouraging surface geology, drill hole data and metallurgical assessments, the Die Hardy Range magnetite was selected for the first resource drill out for Radar. Five drill sections, spaced nominally at 400m with holes 80m apart, are being drilled between May and September – 25 holes in total for 7214m.

The RC drilling programme commenced in May 2011 with 21 holes drilled for 6,172m to the end of August 2011. Two kilometres of the 3.4km strike length was targeted in the initial drill campaign. The best result to date was 194m at 34.2% Fe. The drilling indicates a continuous body ranging in width from 100 to 300m and continuing to at least 300-400m below surface.

Consultant group, Calibre Global, was engaged to coordinate metallurgical test work using material from the initial two drill holes. A grind size test was completed that produced recommendations for the optimum DTR (Davis Tube Recovery) process. The key recommendation was for a grind size of 80% passing 50 micron, a relatively coarse grind size. This procedure was been implemented for all DTR test work. 593 DTR analyses have been completed using the recommended procedure with results averaging in excess of 35% mass recovery and producing a >69%Fe concentrate.

Using newly acquired magnetic data, the exploration potential for the Die Hardy Range mineralisation was estimated by an independent geophysical consultant in October 2011 using surface geology, aeromagnetic data and drilling data as being:

10

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)

Primary Magnetite BIF: 0.83 Bt – 1.38 Bt at 25-35% Fe*

Potential Enriched Material: 129 Mt – 214 Mt at 40-65% Fe*

The magnetic data also highlighted new untested magnetic units within 1km to the north and south of the main magnetite ridge at Lara, both with strike lengths of approximately 2km. The northern unit was included in the estimate of exploration potential while the southern unit was not.

Modelling and mineral resource estimation for the stage 1 drilling was completed by consultant firm CSA Global in October and resulted in a JORC reportable Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource at a 20% Fe cut-off grade of 353 million tonnes at 26.1% Fe. The mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth.

Davis Tube Recovery results and metallurgical test work indicates that a concentrate can be produced exceeding 69% Fe with low levels of contaminants. This indicates that the mineralisation can be treated and has excellent potential for producing a saleable concentrate. The potential size of the Die Hardy Range magnetite mineralisation and highly encouraging metallurgical properties indicate that it has excellent potential to produce a saleable concentrate. A mining lease was applied for in December 2011 covering the Die Hardy mineralisation.

*Radar Iron advises that the potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as exploration target potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

A scoping study to identify key project drivers and infrastructure solutions for the Die Hardy Range project was completed in August 2011. The potential of the project was supported by the results of the study, which also identified credible production and transport solutions to meet the future transport, power and water requirements.

Positive financial results for a range of production options of concentrate were identified. A key recommendation was to proceed with further drilling and development studies. Investors are advised that the Company does not represent that the results of the Scoping Study present an economically viable project as the assumptions used were based upon the Company’s previously announced exploration target and may not be considered sufficiently reliable.

Further metallurgical test work has been commissioned on the Die Hardy mineralisation and a desk-top ground water review was commissioned. The initial results from the water study suggest there are sufficient aquifers nearby to supply the appropriate quantities of water for a magnetite project.

Further project development studies are planned later in 2012/13.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)

Regional Exploration

Radar has access to over 1,200km[2] of tenements and regional geological reconnaissance has continued. A number of areas have been identified as containing outcropping hematite mineralisation and magnetite potential is widespread. The focus is on identifying new hematite targets for drill testing.

An aeromagnetic survey was completed over project areas so that Radar now has full coverage of all prospective tenements with high resolution magnetic data. The low level, high resolution helicopter supported, magnetic aerial survey, totalled some 8,300 flight line kilometres.

The project areas covered by the survey were Die Hardy, Boondine and Jackson (Figure 2), and the new survey data defined over 20km of magnetic responses considered prospective for both hematite and magnetite iron mineralisation.

The survey data adds to recently purchased high resolution aeromagnetic data over the Evanston project area (flown several years ago). Magnetic modelling for all the recently acquired data in conjunction with surface geological mapping has led to the identification and prioritisation of anomalies.

Landsat and Aster satellite imagery data was also purchased to assist in targeting of hematite mineralisation. The imagery captures various wavelengths of reflected light (or spectral signatures) and can be used to identify iron enrichment at surface. Analysis of this information compliments the magnetic data interpretation.

Mapping of the Evanston, Jackson Die Hardy, Windarling Peak and Boondine project areas continued using both external contract geological personnel and company geologists. This process will continue to identify areas with potential for hematite mineralisation and to follow up the geophysical targeting.

Ground magnetic surveying was completed over the Jackson Project area (Figure 2) area, tracing and better characterising partially buried banded iron formation. 350 line kilometres of ground magnetic measurements were recorded (at 40m line spacing) in the area in June.

Drill testing for prospects in the Jackson and Evanston project areas have been identified with drilling planned for the coming year (Figure 6).

Acquisitions

The Company continues to review potential acquisitions of new tenure in the Yilgarn. The acquisition of the iron rights to Southern Cross Gold Limited’s tenure in the region was completed in July 2011 and subsequent to the end of the reporting period Radar acquired E77/1961, a tenement within the Johnston Range Project area

The Company will continue to review potential acquisitions within the Yilgarn, and in other iron ore districts within Australia and globally and assess opportunities to expand its tenure with projects that can add value to the Company and its shareholders.

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)

Corporate Activities

Radar completed two placements during the year to raise approximately $5.8 million before costs. In October 2011, 18.3 million shares were placed to sophisticated investor clients of FSS Advisory at a price of 30 cents per share.

In June 2012 Radar completed a placement to Shinewarm Resources (HK) Group Limited (“Shinewarm”), the Hong Kong based investment vehicle of the privately owned Xiamen Meize Xinyuan Trading Co. Ltd. The trading company supplies iron ore, coal and base metals to industrial partners located throughout China.

Shinewarm became a strategic Chinese investor for Radar by subscribing for 10 million new shares at 33 cents, approximately 22% above the last traded price for Radar Iron’s shares at the time of the announcement, raising $3.3 million before costs. The placement was completed on 27 June 2012.

The funds have provided Radar with sufficient working capital to aggressively pursue its objective of rapidly defining additional hematite resources at its Central Yilgarn project and to commence the mine development process.

Radar’s cash position at the end of the year was $3.90 million.

Financial Position

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Group has incurred a comprehensive loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2012 of $910,939, had a net working capital surplus of $3,435,819 and experienced net cash outflows from operating activities of $671,537.

As at 30 June 2012 the Group had cash on hand of $3,903,225.

Accordingly, the Directors believe that there are sufficient funds to meet the Group’s working capital requirements.

However, if one of the Company’s projects proceeds to the development phase, the Company will require further funding within the next 15 months. Should the Company be unable to raise sufficient funds, the development of the project may have to be deferred.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS

There have been no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group that occurred during the financial year not otherwise disclosed in this report or the financial statements.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE DATE

Other than as noted above and elsewhere in this report, no matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the year which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Company or Group, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Company and Group in subsequent financial years.

15

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION

The Directors believe that the Group has, in all material respects, complied with all particular and significant environmental regulations relevant to its operations.

The Group’s operations are subject to various environmental regulations under the Federal and State Laws of Australia. The majority of the Group’s activities involve low level disturbance associated with exploration drilling programs. Approvals, licences and hearings and other regulatory requirements are performed as required by the management of Radar for each permit or lease in which the Group has an interest.

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

During the financial year, the Company has paid a premium of $17,490 (2011: $15,900) excluding GST to insure the Directors and the Secretary of the Company.

The liabilities insured are legal costs that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may be brought against the officers in their capacity as officers of the Company, and any other payments arising from liabilities incurred by the officers in connection with such proceedings. This does not include such liabilities that arise from conduct involving a wilful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by the officers of their position or of information to gain advantage for themselves or someone else or to cause detriment to the Company.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for Directors and key management personnel of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2012. The information contained in this report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001 .

The information provided includes remuneration disclosures that are required under Accounting Standard AASB 124 “Related Party Disclosures”. These disclosures have been transferred from the financial report.

This remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for key management personnel who are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company and the Group, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the parent company, and includes those executives in the Parent and the Group receiving the highest remuneration.

Key Management Personnel

(i) Directors: Mr Alan Tough (Chairman) Mr Jonathan Lea (Managing Director) Mr Ananda Kathiravelu (Non-Executive)

Remuneration Policy

The Company’s performance relies heavily on the quality of its Key Management Personnel. The Company has therefore designed a remuneration policy to align director and executive reward with business objectives and shareholder value.

Executive reward is linked to shareholder value by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Group’s financial results. The Board believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain high calibre management personnel and directors to run and manage the Group.

Remuneration Structure

In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and executive remuneration is separate and distinct.

Non-Executive Director Remuneration

The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for 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. Independent external advice is sought when required.

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (currently $300,000).

Fees for non-executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align Directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and are able to participate in employee incentive option plans that may exist from time to time.

Executive Remuneration

Executive Remuneration consists of fixed remuneration and variable remuneration (comprising short-term and long-term incentive schemes).

Fixed Remuneration

The Company’s performance relies heavily on the quality of its Key Management Personnel. The Company has therefore designed a remuneration policy to align director and executive reward with business objectives and shareholder value. The Board reviews Key Management Personnel packages annually by reference to the Group’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.

The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities.

The fixed remuneration of the Company’s Key Management Personnel is detailed in the table below.

Variable Remuneration

The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders and directors and key management personnel. Currently, this is facilitated through the issue of options to key management personnel to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Company believes this policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth.

The overall level of executive reward takes into account the performance of the Group over a number of years, with greater emphasis given to the current and prior year. The main performance criteria used in determining the executive reward remuneration is increasing shareholder value through aligning the Company with high quality exploration assets. Due to the nature of the Group’s principal activities the Directors assess the performance of the Group with regard to the price of the Company’s ordinary shares listed on the ASX, and the market capitalisation of the Group.

Directors and executives are issued options to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. Options issued to Directors may be subject to market based price hurdles and vesting conditions and the exercise price of options is set at a level that encourages the Directors to focus on share price appreciation. The Company believes this policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth. Key Management Personnel are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements.

On the resignation of Directors any vested options issued as remuneration are retained by the relevant party. For details of Directors and key management personnel interests in options at year end, refer Note 17(f) of the financial report.

The Board may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives such as options. The policy is designed to reward key management personnel for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder value.

The Company does not currently have a policy pertaining to Directors hedging their exposure to risks associated to the Company’s securities they receive as compensation.

Subsequent to the end of the year the Board completed a self-performance evaluation at an individual Director and Board level.

Jonathan Lea Managing Director

Perth 28 September 2012

The information in this report accurately reflects information prepared by competent persons (as defined by the Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves). It is compiled by Mr Jonathan Lea, an employee of the Company who is a Member of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy with the requisite experience in the field of activity in which he is reporting. Mr Lea has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and the type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Mr Lea consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which they appear.

Information in this report that relates to the Muldoon Mineral Resource estimates reflects information compiled by Mr Alexey Zharnikov a full time employee of CSA Global Pty Ltd, who is a member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (AIG). Mr Zharnikov has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is reporting to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.” Mr Zharnikov consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on the information compiled by him, in the form and context in which it appears.

Information in this report that relates to the Die Hardy Mineral Resource estimate reflects information compiled by Mr Aloysius G.W. Voortman of CSA Global Pty Ltd who is a Fellow and Chartered Professional of the AusIMM. Mr Voortman is a Competent Person as defined by the JORC and is a full time employee of CSA Global Pty Ltd as Principal Resource Geologist and Geostatistician. He has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is reporting to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.” Mr Voortman consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on the information compiled by him, in the form and context in which it appears.

The potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as exploration potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

Radar Iron Ltd and the Board are committed to achieving and demonstrating the highest standards of corporate governance. The Board continues to review the framework and practices to ensure they meet the interests of shareholders. The Company has adopted systems of control and accountability as the basis for the administration of corporate governance. The Company and its Controlled Entity together are referred to as the Group in this statement.

The Board is committed to administering the policies and procedures with openness and integrity, pursuing the true spirit of corporate governance commensurate with the Company’s needs. The Corporate Governance Statement has been structured with reference to the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with 2010 Amendments 2[nd] edition to the extent that they are applicable to the Company.

Information about the Company’s corporate governance practices are set out below.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s Constitution provides that the number of Directors shall not be less than three. There is no requirement for any shareholding qualification.

If the Company’s activities increase in size, nature and scope, the size of the Board will be reviewed periodically and the optimum number of Directors required to adequately supervise the Company’s activities will be determined within the limitations imposed by the Constitution and as circumstances demand.

The membership of the Board, its activities and composition are subject to periodic review. The criteria for determining the identification and application of a suitable candidate for the Board shall include quality of the individual, background of experience and achievement, compatibility with other Board members, credibility within the Company’s scope of activities, intellectual ability to contribute to Board duties and physical ability to undertake Board duties and responsibilities.

Directors are initially appointed by the full Board, subject to election by shareholders at the next Annual General Meeting. Under the Company’s Constitution the tenure of a Director (other than Managing Director, and only one Managing Director where the position is jointly held) is subject to reappointment by shareholders not later than the third anniversary following his or her last appointment. Subject to the requirements of the Corporations Act, the Board does not subscribe to the principle of retirement age and there is no maximum period of service as a Director. A Managing Director may be appointed for the year and on any terms the Directors think fit and, subject to the terms of any agreement entered into, the appointment may be revoked on notice.

The Company is not currently of a size, nor are its affairs of such complexity, to justify the formation of other separate or special committees at this time. The Board as a whole is able to address the governance aspects of the full scope of the Company’s activities and to ensure that it adheres to appropriate ethical standards.

23

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONTINUED)

INDEPENDENCE

Given the Company’s present size and scope, it is currently not company policy to have a majority of independent Directors. Directors have been selected to bring specific skills and industry experience to the Company. The Board has an expansive range of relevant industry experience, financial, legal and other skills and expertise to meet its objectives. The current board composition includes one independent director and two non-independent directors.

Mr Alan Tough is the current Non-Executive Chairman and is considered an independent director.

When determining the independent status of each Director the board has considered whether the Director:

  • Is a substantial shareholder of the Company or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the Company.

  • Is employed, or has previously been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or another Group member, and there has not been a period of at least three years between ceasing such an employment and serving on the board.

  • Has within the last three years been a principal of a material professional adviser or a material consultant to the Company or another Group member, or an employee materially associated with the services provided.

  • Is a material supplier or customer of the Company or other Group member, or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer.

  • Has a material contractual relationship with the Company or another Group member other than as a Director.

APPOINTMENTS TO OTHER BOARDS

Directors are required to take into consideration any potential conflicts of interest when accepting appointments to other boards.

INDEPENDENT PROFESSIONAL ADVICE

The Board has determined that individual Directors have the right in connection with their duties and responsibilities as Directors, to seek independent professional advice at the Company’s expense. With the exception of expenses for legal advice in relation to Director’s rights and duties, the engagement of an outside adviser is subject to prior approval of the Chairman and this will not be withheld unreasonably.

GENDER DIVERSITY

The Company has not adopted an express policy specifically addressing achieving gender diversity. Due to the current limited size of the Board, the Board does not consider it necessary to have a gender diversity policy, but will consider adopting a policy in the future. Furthermore, the Company has not set any objectives for achieving gender diversity. Should a gender diversity policy be considered appropriate for the Company in the future due to increases in size of the organisation, the policy will specifically deal with the objectives for achieving diversity.

The Company’s corporate code of conduct provides a framework for undertaking ethical conduct in employment. Under the corporate code of conduct, the Company will not tolerate any form of discrimination or harassment in the workplace.

The Company currently has no women board members, senior executives or employees.

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONTINUED)

CONTINUOUS REVIEW OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Directors consider, on an ongoing basis, how management information is presented to them and whether such information is sufficient to enable them to discharge their duties as Directors of the Company. Such information must be sufficient to enable the Directors to determine appropriate operating and financial strategies from time to time in light of changing circumstances and economic conditions. The Directors recognise that iron ore exploration is a business with inherent risks and that operational strategies adopted should, notwithstanding, be directed towards improving or maintaining the net worth of the Company.

CODE OF CONDUCT

The Company has adopted a Code of Conduct for company executives that promote the highest standards of ethics and integrity in carrying out their duties to the Company.

The Code of Conduct can be found on the Company’s website at www.radariron.com.au.

RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

The identification and management of risk, including calculated risk-taking activity is viewed by management as an essential component in creating shareholder value.

Management, through the Managing Director, is responsible for developing, maintaining and improving the Company’s risk management and internal control system. Management provides the board with periodic reports identifying areas of potential risks and the safeguards in place to efficiently manage material business risks. These risk management and internal control systems are in place to protect the financial statements of the entity from potential misstatement and the Board is responsible for satisfying itself annually, or more frequently as required, that management has developed a sound system of risk management and internal control.

Strategic and operational risks are reviewed at least annually as part of the forecasting and budgeting process. The Group has identified and actively monitors risks inherent in the industry in which the Group operates.

The Board also receives a written assurance from the Managing Director and Company Secretary that to the best of their knowledge and belief, the declaration provided to the Board in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control, and that the system is operating effectively in relation to financial reporting risks. The Board notes that due to its nature, internal control assurance from the Managing Director and Company Secretary can only be reasonable rather than absolute. This is due to such factors as the need for judgement, the use of testing on a sample basis, the inherent limitations in internal control and because much of the evidence is persuasive rather than conclusive and therefore is not and cannot be designed to detect all weaknesses in internal control procedures.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONTINUED)

ASX PRINCIPLES OF GOOD CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board has reviewed its current practices in light of the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with 2010 Amendments 2[nd] edition with a view to making amendments where applicable after considering the Company's size and the resources it has available.

As the Company's activities develop in size, nature and scope, the size of the Board and the implementation of any additional formal corporate governance committees will be given further consideration.

The following table sets out the ASX Corporate Governance Guidelines with which the Company does not comply:

ASX Principle ASX Principle Reference/comment
Principle 2: Structure the Board to add value
2.1 A majority of the Board Given the Company’s present size and scope, it is currently
should be independent not company policy to have a majority of independent
Directors Directors. Directors have been selected to bring specific
skills and industry experience to the Company.
2.4 The Board should establish Given the size of the Board there is no formal nomination
a nomination committee committee. Acting in its ordinary capacity from time to
time as required, the Board carries out the process of
determining the need for, screening and appointing new
Directors. In view of the size and resources available to the
Company, it is not considered that a separate nomination
committee would add any substance to this process.
Principle 3: Promote ethical and responsible decision-making
3.2 – 3.3 Companies should The Company does not have an express policy specifically
establish a policy addressing achieving gender diversity. Due to the current
concerning diversity limited size of the Board, the Board does not consider it
necessary to have a gender diversity policy, but will
consider adopting a policy in the future.
The Company’s Corporate Governance Plan includes a
corporate code of conduct, which provides a framework for
undertaking ethical conduct in employment. Under the
corporate code of conduct, the Company will not tolerate
any form of discrimination or harassment in the workplace.
Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in financial reporting
4.1 – 4.2 The Board should establish The Company does not have an Audit Committee. The
an audit committee Board believes that, with only 3 Directors on the Board, the
Board itself is the appropriate forum to deal with this
function.
Principle 8: Remunerate fairly and responsibly
8.1 The Board should establish Given the current size of the Board, the Company does not
a remuneration committee have a remuneration committee. The Board as a whole
reviews remuneration levels on an individual basis, the size
of the Company making individual assessment more
appropriate than formal remuneration policies. In doing so,
the Board seeks to retain professional services as it
requires, at reasonable market rates, and seeks external
advice and market comparisons where necessary.

26

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONTINUED)

ASX Principle

8.3 Companies should clearly distinguish the structure of non-executive Directors’ remuneration from that of executive Directors and senior executives.

Reference/comment

The Board acknowledges the grant of options to NonExecutive Directors in the prior year is contrary to Recommendation 8.3 of the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. However, the Board considers the grant of Director Options to be reasonable in the circumstances, given the necessity to attract and retain the highest calibre of professionals to the Company, whilst maintaining the Company’s cash reserves.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY

Radar Iron Ltd (the “Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2012 comprise the Company and its subsidiary (collectively referred to as the “Group”).

A description of the nature of the Group’s operations and its principal activities is included in the review of operations and activities in the Directors’ Report on page 5, which does not form part of this financial report.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION

This General Purpose Financial Report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (including Australian Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 .

The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes of the Group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Radar Iron Ltd is a company limited by shares. The financial report is presented in the functional currency of the Group, being Australian Dollars.

This Consolidated Financial Report was approved by the Board of Directors on 28 September 2012.

Financial Position

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Group has incurred a comprehensive loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2012 of $910,939, had a net working capital surplus of $3,435,819 and experienced net cash outflows from operating activities of $671,537.

As at 30 June 2012 the Group had cash on hand of $3,903,225.

Accordingly, the Directors believe that there are sufficient funds to meet the Group’s working capital requirements.

However, if one of the Company’s projects proceeds to the development phase, the Company will require further funding within the next 15 months. Should the Company be unable to raise sufficient funds, the development of the project may have to be deferred.

Historical cost convention

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of the financial reports requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The significant policies which have been adopted in the preparation of this financial report are:

(a) Principles of Consolidation

Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements comprise the assets and liabilities of Radar Iron Ltd and its subsidiaries at 30 June 2012 and the results of the subsidiary for the year ended. A subsidiary is any entity controlled by Radar Iron Ltd.

Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared from the same reporting period as the Parent Company, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.

All inter-company balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from intraentity transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the individual financial statements of Radar Iron Ltd.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Where there is a loss of control of a subsidiary, the consolidated financial statements include the results for the part of the reporting period which Radar Iron Ltd has control.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting involves recognising at acquisition date, separately from goodwill, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at their acquisition date fair values (see note 1(h)).

Common Control transactions are accounted for at the net asset value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired entity. This method of accounting involves recognising at acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The consideration paid is valued at the net asset value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired entity, in accordance with these principles to ensure no profit or loss is accounted for in either the acquirer or the seller. The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at their acquisition date fair values (see note 1(h)).

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a loss of control is accounted for as an equity transaction.

34

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a) Principles of Consolidation (continued)

Non-controlling interests are allocated their share of net profit after tax in the statement of comprehensive income and are presented within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from the equity of the owners of the Company.

Losses are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:

  • Derecognises the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary.

  • Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest.

  • Derecognises the cumulative translation differences, recorded in equity.

  • Recognises the fair value of the consideration received.

  • Recognises the fair value of any investment retained.

  • Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss.

  • Reclassifies the parent's share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income to profit or loss.

(b) Segment Reporting

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. This includes start up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the board of directors.

Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers – being the board of directors.

The group aggregates two or more operating segments when they have similar economic characteristics, and the segments are similar in the nature of the minerals targeted.

Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 are reported separately. However, an operating segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about the segment would be useful to users of the financial statements.

Information about other business activities and operating segments that are below the quantitative criteria are combined and disclosed in a separate category for “all other segments”.

(c) Income Tax

The income tax expense or benefit for the year is the tax payable on the current year’s taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.

35

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(c) Income Tax (continued)

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

(d) Goods and Services Tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (“GST”), except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authorities, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense item as applicable and receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position. Cash flows are included the Cash Flow Statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(e) Trade and Other Receivables

Trade and other receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to another party with no intention of selling the receivables. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance date which are classified as non-current assets.

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

(f) Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure

Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is either written off as incurred or accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. Costs are only carried forward to the extent that right of tenure is current and those costs are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area (or, alternatively by its sale) or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage which permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves and above, operations in relation to the area are continuing.

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

When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.

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.

(g) Property, Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the items. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the reporting period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate asset costs over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Computer equipment 3 years
Software 3 years
Plant & equipment 5 years

Each asset’s residual value and useful life is reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. 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 are included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(h) Business Combinations

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, securities issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Where equity instruments are issued in an acquisition, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of fair value. Transaction costs , other than those associated with the issue of equity instruments, that the Group incurs in connection to a Business Combination are expensed as incurred.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the Group's share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the Statement of Comprehensive income, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired.

(i) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of the recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount the asset or cash generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

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. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets or groups of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit” or ”CGU”). Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, for the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, CGU’s to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment is tested reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGU’s that are expected to benefit from the synergies of combination.

(j) Share-Based Payments

The Group has provided payment to service providers and related parties in the form of share-based compensation whereby services are rendered in exchange for shares or rights over shares (‘equity-settled transactions’). The cost of these equity-settled transactions is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using an appropriate option valuation model for services provided by employees or where the fair value of the shares received cannot be reliably estimated.

38

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(j) Share-Based Payments (continued)

For goods and services received where the fair value can be determined reliably the goods and services and the corresponding increase in equity are measured at that fair value.

The fair value of the options granted is adjusted to reflect market vesting conditions, but excludes the impact of any non-market vesting conditions. Non market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. At each balance date, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable.

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 parties 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.

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.

(k) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

(l) Finance income and expense

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested, gains on disposal of financial assets and changes in fair value of financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss. Finance expenses comprise changes in the fair value of financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss and impairment losses on financial assets.

Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest rate method.

(m) Issued Capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(n) Earnings per Share

i) Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders 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.

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.

(o) Trade and other Payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Trade and other payables are stated at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

(p) Foreign Currency Translation

i) Functional and presentation currency

Both the functional and presentation currency of Radar Iron Ltd and its subsidiaries is the Australian dollar ($).

ii) Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance date.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

(q) Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The Directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial report 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 Group.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(q) Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:

i) Impairment of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation 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 exploration and evaluation asset through sale.

Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices.

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

In addition, exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised if activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. To the extent it is determined in the future that this capitalised expenditure should be written off, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made.

ii) Recoverability of potential deferred tax assets The Group recognises deferred income tax assets in respect of tax losses to the extent that the future utilisation of these losses is considered probable. Assessing the future utilisation of these losses requires the Group to make significant estimates related to expectations of future taxable income. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flows from operations and the application of existing tax laws. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, this could result in significant changes to the deferred income tax assets recognised, which would in turn impact the financial results.

iii) Share-based payment transactions The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with management and other parties by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by the Board of Directors using either the Binomial or the Black-Scholes valuation methods, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the equity instruments were granted. The assumptions in relation to the valuation of the equity instruments are detailed in Note 18. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact expenses and equity.

(r) Comparative Information

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

(s) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods

In the year ended 30 June 2012, the Group has reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period.

It has been determined by the Group that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on its business and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

The Group is in the process of reviewing the impact of new Standards issued but not yet effective for the year ended 30 June 2012. At the date of this report, no assessment has been made of the potential impact, if any, of the new Standards.

Exploration commitments

In order to maintain rights of tenure to exploration permits, the Group has certain obligations to perform minimum exploration work and expend minimum amounts of money.

These commitments may be varied as a result of renegotiations, relinquishments, farmouts, sales or carrying out work in excess of the permit obligations. The minimum expenditure required by the Group on exploration permits as at the balance date is estimated below. Commitments beyond this time frame cannot be estimated reliably as minimum expenditure requirements are reassessed annually. The commitments have not been provided for in the financial report.

Fair value of options granted

The fair value of unlisted options is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at valuation date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. Expected price volatility is estimated by considering historic average share price volatility. The BlackScholes valuation is expensed over the vesting period of the particular options.

The tables below summarise the model inputs for options granted and valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model:

NOTE 20: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks that include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate 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.

Risk management is carried out by the Managing Director under policies approved by the Board of Directors. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as mitigating foreign exchange and interest rate and credit risks.

a) Market Risk

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is not directly exposed to any foreign currency risk.

Price risk

The Company is not directly exposed to any price risk.

Interest rate risk

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk on cash balances held in interest bearing accounts. The Board constantly monitors its interest rate exposure and attempts to maximise interest income by using a mixture of fixed and variable interest rates, whilst ensuring sufficient funds are available for the Group’s operating activities. The Group’s net exposure to interest rate risk at 30 June 2012 approximates the value of cash and cash equivalents.

b) Credit Risk The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk.

c) Liquidity Risk

The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate working capital is maintained for the coming months. Upcoming capital needs and the timing of raisings are assessed by the Board at each Meeting of Directors.

The maturity of the Group’s payables is disclosed in Note 12.

53

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 20: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

d) Cash flow and Interest Rate Risk The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result in changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial assets and financial liabilities is disclosed in Note 8, only cash is affected by interest rate risk as cash is the Group’s only financial asset exposed to fluctuating interest rates.

In accordance with AASB 7 the following sensitivity analysis has been performed for the Group’s Interest Rate risk:

Effect On: Effect On: Effect On: Effect On:
Profit Equity Profit Equity
Consolidated 2012 2012 2011 2011
Risk Variable *Sensitivity ** $ $ $ $
Interest Rate + 1.50% 58,598 58,598 63,651 63,651
- 1.50% (58,598) (58,598) (63,651) (63,651)
  • It is considered that 150 basis points is a ‘reasonably possible’ estimate of potential variations in the interest rate.

The fair values of all financial assets and liabilities of the Group approximate their carrying values.

Capital management

The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Group’s capital includes ordinary share capital and share options, supported by financial assets.

There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year ended 30 June 12.

Neither the Company nor the Group are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

NOTE 21: SEGMENT REPORTING

Description of segments

The Group’s reportable operating segments are as follows:

  1. Iron-ore exploration segment (Australia); and

  2. All Other Segments, which includes the corporate & administration segment (Australia).

The Group’s operating segments have been determined with reference to the information used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker to make decisions regarding the Group’s operations and the allocation of the Group’s working capital. Due to the size and nature of the Group’s business the Board as a whole has been determined as the Chief Operating Decision Maker.

The segments disclosed in the table below have been identified as operating segments that meet any of the following thresholds:

  • Segment loss greater than 10% of combined loss of loss making operating segments; and

  • Segment assets greater than 10% of combined assets of all operating segments.

RADAR IRON LTD ACN: 146 455 576

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2012

NOTE 21: SEGMENT REPORTING (CONTINUED)

Each of Radar’s operating segments operates in the same geographical locations, as disclosed above.

AASB 8 Segment Reporting states that similar operating segments can be aggregated together to form one reportable segment. Radar has not aggregated any segments together under this rule.

Once reportable segments have been identified, all remaining segments that do not satisfy the thresholds are to be aggregated together to form an all other segments reporting segment. In accordance with AASB 8 Segment Reporting corporate and administration activities are included in the all other segments reporting segment.

Accounting policies and inter-segment transactions

The accounting policies used by the Group in reporting segments internally are the same as those contained in note 3 to the accounts.

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Radar Iron Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2012, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors’ responsibility for the financial report

In Note 2, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements , that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
