NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as the ‘Group') consisting of WhiteHawk Limited (referred to hereafter as the 'Company') and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the six months ended 30 June 2020.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
These general purpose interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001, 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 annual report for the year ended 31 December 2019 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs unless otherwise stated in the notes. The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the policies stated below.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As disclosed in the half-year interim financial report, the Group incurred a loss after tax of $1,268,985 (2019: $1,646,670) and had net cash outflows from operating activities of $541,832 for the half year ended 30 June 2020 (2019: $1,305,008). As at that date the Group had net current assets $572,550 (31 December 2019: $1,486,859) and net assets of $1,090,190 (31 December 2019: $2,305,597). The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the company achieving its revenue targets, obtaining additional funding, or a combination of the two.
These factors indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Group will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
14
Interim Consolidated Financial Report
WHITEHAWK LIMITED
==> picture [29 x 799] intentionally omitted <==
The directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will be able to continue as a going concern, after consideration of the following factors:
-
If required, the Group has the ability to continue to raise additional funds on a timely basis pursuant to the Corporations Act 2001;
-
the Group has the ability to further scale back some of its development activities if required.
Accordingly, the directors believe that the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial report.
The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the amounts or classification of recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary if the Group does not continue as a going concern.
B. New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Some accounting pronouncements which have become effective from 1 January 2020 and have therefore been adopted do not have a significant impact on the Group’s financial results or position.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF WHITEHAWK LIMITED
Level 13, 60 Castlereagh Street Sydney NSW 2000 GPO Box 5138 Sydney NSW 2001 T +61 (0) 2 8226 4500 F +61 (0) 2 8226 4501

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of WhiteHawk Limited which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of WhiteHawk Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of WhiteHawk Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of WhiteHawk Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
(a) giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
(b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1A in the half-year financial report, which indicated that the Group incurred a loss after tax of $1,268,985 (2019: $1,646,670) and had net cash outflows from operating activities of $541,832 for the half year ended 30 June 2020 (2019: $1,305,008). As at that date the Group had net current assets $572,550 (31 December 2019: $1,486,859) and net assets of $1,090,190 (31 December 2019: $2,305,597). The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the company achieving its revenue targets, obtaining additional funding, or a combination of the two. As stated in Note 1A, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
