Operational overview
|
· |
The pivot to focus on helium was achieved with first entry into the USA with the acquisition of a 20% working interest in the Vecta Helium Project, where drilling of five planned helium wells is expected to commence in December 2024. |
|
· |
Cinnabar project (75% WI) in Texas, USA leases are held by production and has significant Reserves. Technical work is underway to resolve production challenges. |
|
· |
The two projects in Australia are progressing. At EP-145, land access was obtained from CLC and the Environmental Management Plan has been submitted for approval. At EPA-155, the process to approve the grant of the permit progressed with a meeting held with CLC and native title stakeholders. |
Post-period overview
|
· |
Completed sale of Stanley project in USA. |
|
· |
Raised £1.5m by way of a placing and subscription of ordinary shares. This, combined with the Stanley sale enables the Company to fund its share of Vecta drilling 5 wells, acquire seismic at EP-145 and business development seeking additional helium exploration projects. |
|
· |
With the focus on helium exploration, appraisal and development and the sale of Stanley area assets, Mosman will no longer be providing quarterly production updates. |
Andy Carroll, CEO of Mosman commented: "It has been a significant year for Mosman as we delivered on our corporate plan to turn our focus towards helium opportunities.
"This pivot has been made possible by the hard work of the team who have now built a strong foundation upon which we can now grow the business and capitalise on the exciting opportunities ahead of us.
"I would like to once again thank shareholders for their continued support during a year of significant change and reemphasise our confidence in the future of the business."
The Company expects to publish its annual report today which will be posted and made available on the Company's website at www.mosmanoilandgas.com/reports-results-presentations

Notes to editors
Mosman (AIM: MSMN) is a helium, hydrogen and hydrocarbon exploration, development, and production company with projects in the US and Australia. Mosman's strategic objectives remain consistent: to identify opportunities which will provide operating cash flow and have development upside, in conjunction with progressing exploration. The Company has several projects in the US, in addition to exploration projects in the Amadeus Basin in Central Australia.
Chairman's Statement
We look back with pride on a busy year of transformation and transactions at Mosman Oil & Gas and we believe that it portends more to come as opportunities arise and resources allow.
Strategic move into helium
During the year, the Group completed its strategic review and concluded Mosman would focus on helium opportunities more than conventional natural gas and oil and this strategic pivot into helium was advanced in June 2024 with the acquisition of a 10% interest in the Vecta helium project in USA.
In pivoting to helium Mosman remains firmly focused on exploration, development and production where we apply the technical and commercial skills borne of extensive experience in the hydrocarbon industry that have applications in helium: in the newer more exciting and more valuable markets of helium and hydrogen. As a Group we are proudly opportunistic in our quest for good assets to acquire and commercialise.
Our exit from the Stanley oil & gas assets had been in progress for many months and we were pleased to conclude this disposal in October 2024. Not only did this improve the balance sheet, but with a clear focus on building the Group's helium portfolio, Howard McLaughlin, head of US Operations, can now focus more closely on assessing new helium opportunities with support from Tim Rynott, an experienced helium consultant, who was appointed in September 2024.
Helium, and to a lesser extent hydrogen, have both been long-term targets in our large central Australian exploration blocks. We have historically farmed them out to partners to fund exploration but retained material carried interests. More recently though, when our partner in EP-145 changed its own ambitions, we were happy to buy back and resume control.
Corporate Update
In September 2023, the Board renewal process was completed with my appointment as non-executive Chairman and Carl Dumbrell as a non-executive Director, resulting in a reduction in the number of Directors from four to three; the reduction in executive directors from two to one; and a clearer separation of Board and management with two independent Directors and a Chief Executive Officer.
In Australia, recent activity has highlighted the need to expand the general management resource and we have appointed Dr Julie Daws, who has worked as our consultant geologist for more than 10 years as General Manager of Exploration. Julie has been an anchor and technical lead on the Central Australian assets and a key technical advisor to our CEO. Julie's appointment, combined with Tim Rynott's appointment to support Howard McLaughlin in the US, has resulted in a stronger operational team to deliver on the Group's strategy.
As part of our repositioning, in June we launched a new website alongside refreshed branding to better represent the evolution of Mosman Oil & Gas as a helium focussed company.
Health and Safety update - It is also pleasing to report that no accidents were reported among the Group, underscoring our commitment to maintaining a safe working environment.
Post-Period Events
In September, the Company completed a £1.5m placing that was well supported by the market, this was followed by the completion of the sale of our interest in Nadsoilco LLC in October 2024 and provided Mosman with a healthy cash position which will allow the Company to pursue and progress new projects and provide additional working capital. The Company expects to deploy some of this capital in its forthcoming seismic acquisition in Australia and participating in drilling 5 wells in the USA.
Finally, I would like to extend my gratitude to the team, consultants and advisers whose hard work and dedication has been invaluable in helping to drive the company forward in a transformational year.
Nigel Harvey
Chair
Overview of the 2024 Financial Year
Mosman's strategic objective remains to identify opportunities which will provide operating cash flow and have development upside, in conjunction with exploration of existing exploration permits and acquiring high potential projects.
The current focus, through the wholly owned subsidiary Mosman Helium Inc, is on acquiring high potential helium assets in the USA to deliver growth by identifying commercial helium resources that can be commercialised and deliver reserves, production and cash flow.
Summary
In the period there were several notable developments:
More than $785,000 was invested in increasing production and progressing exploration during the period.
In October 2023, the Company announced that it had entered into a farmout agreement with Greenvale Gold Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Greenvale Energy Ltd (ASX:GRV) to fund seismic and drilling on its EP-145 project in the Northern Territory of Australia. Upon Completion in April 2024 Mosman retained a 25% working interest in EP-145 and Greenvale had a 75% working interest. Subsequent to year-end, Mosman reached an agreement to acquire the 75% interest in EP-145 from Greenvale Energy Ltd, subject to normal conditions including government approval. This will result in Mosman holding a 100% interest and operational control of EP-145.
The sale of Nadsoilco LLC (which holds the Stanley assets) for consideration of up to US$1.75m was announced in June 2024 and completed subsequent to the financial year end. The final sale terms, as announced on 2 October 2024 were:
|
· |
US$500k initial payment (which has been received); |
|
· |
Two conditional cash payments of US$250k each to be paid within 10 days of end of June 2025, and June 2026 respectively if the gross production rate average for each intervening period is greater than 150 bopd; |
|
· |
Three additional US$250k payments upon achieving gross aggregate production milestones of 100,000 bbls, 200,000 bbls and 300,000 bbls of oil from the effective date of completion of 1 July 2024. |
In June 2024, the Group announced that it had acquired a 10% working interest in a helium project in Las Animas County, Colorado, USA (the "Vecta Helium Project") from Vecta Oil and Gas Ltd, a private company that has explored, drilled and produces helium in Colorado (the "Acquisition").
In the period, primarily due to lower production at Cinnabar, and as set out in the Company's quarterly production updates, annual sales (including from discontinued operations) decreased by 44% to $1,251,551 ($2,252,029 in 2023) and gross profit decreased by 37% to $425,202 ($674,665 in 2023).
Subsequent to the financial year end, a further 10% of the Vecta project was acquired for shares. Vecta Oil & Gas Ltd owns the remaining 80% and operates the project.
USA
Net Production attributable to Mosman in the year to 30 June 2024 was 16,340 boe, compared to 31,067 boe in 2023.

The decrease in net production was primarily due to lower production at Cinnabar, which was somewhat offset by increased production at Stanley.
Cinnabar (75% working interest)
The decision was made to recomplete Arco Fee G-3 (formerly known as Cinnabar-1) in a zone that looked promising on wireline logs. The recompleted zone has produced oil with reduced water flow but only flows for a few days before being shut-in to build up pressure.
The other wells continue to produce oil intermittently.

Stanley (34.85% to 38.5% Working Interests)
Overall production at Stanley declined in the year but is increased in the latter part of the year due to successful workovers. Stanley was sold post the end of the financial period with completion in October 2024.
Livingston (20% Working Interest) and Greater Stanley (40% Working Interest)
These assets were sold with the Stanley assets as noted above.
Arkoma (27% Working Interest)
Production decreased in FY2024. This asset has value when gas prices are high, however due to the gas compression and transport costs it has limited value during current low gas prices. The Company continues to review options for the asset but has not committed additional expenditure.
Winters-2 (23% Working Interest)
Winters-2 continues to produce at rates exhibiting natural decline. These assets were sold with the Stanley assets.
AUSTRALIA
Mosman has continued to conduct technical work on its Central Australian exploration projects in the Amadeus Basin, Northern Territory.
Mosman has estimated gross Prospective Resource volumes for hydrocarbons, helium, and hydrogen associated with the Walker Creek Anticline as a lead within the boundaries of the EP-145 permit using a deterministic approach and applying the SPE PRMS standard.

The ongoing exploration work program on EP-145 is to acquire seismic prior to drilling an exploration well. The CLC has conducted a site survey and has approved land access for seismic acquisition.
Other approvals have been applied for the acquisition of 2D seismic in the current permit year prior to identifying a drilling location and drilling an exploration well.
Mosman's other central Australian project is EPA-155 and is subject to a farm out agreement. This permit application is subject to a farmout with the next step being completion of Native Title negotiations.
CORPORATE
Financial Report
In the year to 30 June 2024, the Company made a loss of $2,140,072 (2023: $2,127,198) after loss from discontinued operations of $594,241 (2023: $134,382).
Revenue from continuing operations decreased to $186,232 (2023: $572,174), primarily due to decreased production at Cinnabar.
Gross Profit from continuing operations decreased to $76,362 (2023: $221,295), primarily due to lower production.
Of significance, some $1,097,952 (2023: $2,567,643) was spent on investing activities on assets in the portfolio, including payments towards the Vecta acquisition, further development and workovers for Cinnabar, and workovers for Stanley which led to improved production rates in Q4.
Total asset value increased to $9,450,567 (2023: $8,669,676).
The net proceeds of fundraising activities during the year were $1,859,072 (2023: $1,931,908).
Overhead costs continue to be tightly controlled. Mosman continues to operate with a very small number of Employees and Consultants. The Company operates in two countries and in four-time zones, and the role played by the Employees and Consultants is vital in achieving Mosman's strategic objective.
Outlook
We have successfully pivoted from oil and gas production to helium focused exploration. Mosman has identified opportunities which will provide operating cash flow and have development upside, in conjunction with exploration of existing exploration permits, whilst also being in a position to evaluate further acquisition targets.
We are particularly encouraged by the wide range of early stage helium exploration opportunities in the USA. The Vecta project is a good example of shallow low cost drilling that enables exploration and production without large capital requirements. Other projects are being evaluated that, if acquired, will complement this asset with identified prospects in areas with demonstrated helium production.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Year Ended 30 June 2024
All amounts are Australian Dollars
1 Statement of Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in preparing the financial report of Mosman Oil and Gas Limited (or "the Company'') and Controlled Entities ("Consolidated entity" or "Group"), are stated to assist in a general understanding of the financial report. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise indicated.
Mosman Oil and Gas Limited is a Company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
(a) Basis of Preparation
This general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical costs and does not take into account changing money values or, except where stated, current valuations of non-current assets.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. As at 30 June 2024, the consolidated entity incurred a net loss of $2,140,072 during the year ended 30 June 2024 and, as of that date, the group had a cash balance of $873,365.
The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
In arriving at this position, the Directors have had regard to the fact that the Group has, or in the Directors' opinion will have access to, sufficient cash to fund administrative and other committed expenditure for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of this report.
In forming this view the directors have taken into consideration the following:
• The ability of the Group to obtain funding through various sources, including equity raised which are currently being investigated by management;
• The Group has the capacity, if necessary, to reduce its operating cost structure in order to minimize its working capital requirements; and
• The Directors have reasonable expectations that they will be able to raise additional funding needed for the Group to continue to execute against its milestones in the medium term.
Should the company or the group not able to achieve matters set out above, there is a significant uncertainty related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
The financial report was authorised for issue by the Directors on 30 October 2024.
(b) Principles of Consolidation and Equity Accounting
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Mosman Oil and Gas Limited at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Mosman Oil and Gas Limited has the ability and right to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity's activities.
Where controlled entities have entered or left the Group during the year, the financial performance of those entities is included only for the period of the year that they were controlled. Details of Controlled and Associated entities are contained in Note 28 to the financial statements.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group have been eliminated in full on consolidation.
Under AASB 11 Joint Arrangements, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures. The classification depends on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. Mosman Oil and Gas Limited has a working interest in various joint operations.
Joint ventures
Joint operations represent arrangements whereby joint operators maintain direct interests in each asset and exposure to each liability of the arrangement. The Group's interests in the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of joint operations are included in the respective line items of the financial statements.
Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method (see below), after initially being recognised at cost in the consolidated balance sheet.
Equity method
Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the group's share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the investee in profit or loss, and the group's share of movements in other comprehensive income of the investee in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from associates and joint ventures are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
When the group's share of losses in an equity-accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the group's interest in these entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of equity accounted investees have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group.
The carrying amount of equity-accounted investments is tested for impairment in accordance with the policy described in note 1(s).
(c) Use of Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
Impairment of Exploration and Evaluation Assets
The ultimate recoupment of the value of exploration and evaluation assets, is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale, of the exploration and evaluation assets.
Impairment tests are carried out when there are indicators of impairment in order to identify whether the asset carrying values exceed their recoverable amounts. There is significant estimation and judgement in determining the inputs and assumptions used in determining the recoverable amounts.
The key areas of judgement and estimation include:
· Recent exploration and evaluation results and resource estimates;
· Environmental issues that may impact on the underlying tenements;
· Fundamental economic factors that have an impact on the operations and carrying values of assets and liabilities.
Taxation
Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes related to taxation, are based on the best estimates of directors and take into account the financial performance and position of the Group as they pertain to current income tax legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current tax position represents the best estimate, pending assessment by the tax authorities.
Exploration and Evaluation Assets
The accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure results in expenditure being capitalised for an area of interest where it is considered likely to be recoverable by future exploitation or sale or where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves.
This policy requires management to make certain estimates as to future events and circumstances. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalised the expenditure under the policy, a judgement is made that the recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalised amount will be written off to profit and loss.
(d) Income Tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amounts are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised;
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the income statement.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
(e) Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the consolidated entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately on the face of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
(f) Goods and Services Tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
(i) Where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset, or as part of the expense item as applicable;
(ii) Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included;
(iii) 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;
(iv) Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows 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; and
(v) Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(g) Property, Plant and Equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment. In the event the carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses are recognised either in profit or loss, or as a revaluation decrease if the impairment losses relate to a revalued asset. A formal assessment of recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present (refer to Note 1(s) for details of impairment).
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset's employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.
(h) Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.
(i) Exploration and Evaluation Assets
Mineral exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest and is subject to impairment testing. These costs are carried forward only if they relate to an area of interest for which rights of tenure are current and in respect of which:
· Such costs are expected to be recouped through the successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively by its sale; or
· Exploration and/or evaluation activities in the area have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence, or otherwise, of economically recoverable reserves and active or significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest is continuing.
In the event that an area of interest is abandoned accumulated costs carried forward are written off in the year in which that assessment is made. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
Where a resource has been identified and where it is expected that future expenditures will be recovered by future exploitation or sale, the impairment of the exploration and evaluation is written back and transferred to development costs. Once 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.
Costs of site restoration and rehabilitation are recognised when the Company has a present obligation, the future sacrifice of economic benefits is probable, and the amount of the provision can be reliably estimated.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
For the purpose of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which the exploration activity relates. The cash generating unit shall not be larger than the area of interest.
(j) Non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale
Non-current assets and assets of disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continued use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs of disposal. For non-current assets or assets of disposal groups to be classified as held for sale, they must be available for immediate sale in their present condition and their sale must be highly probable.
An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write down of the non-current assets and assets of disposal groups to fair value less costs of disposal. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs of disposal of a non-current assets and assets of disposal groups, but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised.
Non-current assets are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of assets held for sale continue to be recognised.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of disposal groups classified as held for sale are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position, in current assets. The liabilities of disposal groups classified as held for sale are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position, in current liabilities.
(k) Accounts Payable
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
(l) Contributed Equity
Issued Capital
Incremental costs directly attributable to issue of ordinary shares and share options and warrants are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit.
(m) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") are calculated based upon the net loss divided by the weighted average number of shares. Diluted EPS are calculated as the net loss divided by the weighted average number of shares and dilutive potential shares.
(n) Share-Based Payment Transactions
The Group provides benefits to Directors, KMP and consultants of the Group in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees and consultants render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares ("equity settled") transactions.
The value of equity settled securities is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity.
Where the Group acquires some form of interest in an exploration tenement or an exploration area of interest and the consideration comprises share-based payment transactions, the fair value of the assets acquired are measured at grant date. The value is recognised within capitalised mineral exploration and evaluation expenditure, together with a corresponding increase in equity.
(o) Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
(p) Financial Risk Management
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework, to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group. These risks include credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk from the use of financial instruments. The Group has only limited use of financial instruments through its cash holdings being invested in short term interest bearing securities. The Group has no debt, and working capital is maintained at its highest level possible and regularly reviewed by the full board.
(q) Financial Instruments
Recognition, initial measurement and derecognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument and are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transactions costs, except for those carried at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.
Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets
Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 9, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable).
Hybrid contracts
If a hybrid contract contains a host that is a financial asset, the policies applicable to financial assets are applied consistently to the entire contract.
Subsequent measurement of financial assets
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:
· financial assets at amortised cost
· financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
· debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
· equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
Classifications are determined by both:
· the entity's business model for managing the financial asset
· the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets
All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables which is presented within other expenses.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not designated as FVPL):
· they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its contractual cash flows
· the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
Financial assets that are held within a business model other than 'hold to collect' or 'hold to collect and sell' are categorised at fair value through profit and loss. Further, irrespective of business model, financial assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest are accounted for at FVPL. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements apply.
Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Debt FVOCI)
Financial assets with contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest and held within a business model of collecting the contractual cash flows and selling the assets are accounted for at FVOCI. Any gains or losses recognised in OCI will be recycled upon derecognition of the asset.
Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Equity FVOCI)
Investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading are eligible for an irrevocable election at inception to be measured at FVOCI. Under this category, subsequent movements in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss. Dividend income is taken to profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents return of capital.
Impairment of Financial assets
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the Group's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.
For financial assets mandatorily measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is recognised in other comprehensive income with a corresponding expense through profit or loss. In all other cases, the loss allowance reduces the asset's carrying value with a corresponding expense through profit or loss.
(r) Oil and gas assets
The cost of oil and gas producing assets and capitalised expenditure on oil and gas assets under development are accounted for separately and are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Costs include expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the item as well as past exploration and evaluation costs.
When an oil and gas asset commences production, costs carried forward are amortised on a units of production basis over the life of the economically recoverable reserves. Changes in factors such as estimates of economically recoverable reserves that affect amortisation calculations do not give rise to prior financial period adjustments and are dealt with on a prospective basis.
(s) Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset's carrying value. Any excess of the asset's carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement. Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating until to which the asset belongs.
(t) Employee Entitlements
Liabilities for wages and salaries, annual leave and other current employee entitlements expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rates paid or payable.
Contributions to employee superannuation plans are charged as an expense as the contributions are paid or become payable.
(u) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be the result and that outlay can be reliably measured.
(v) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of 3 months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.
(w) Revenue and Other Income
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances, rebates and amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
The group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the Group's activities as described below. The group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
Revenue from Joint Operations is recognised based on its share of the sale by joint operation.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets, is the rate inherent in the instrument.
(x) Business combinations
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired.
The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred to profit or loss.
On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated entity's operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date.
Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the consolidated entity remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.
Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.
The difference between the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer.
Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the
date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information possible to determine fair value.
(y) Acquisition of Subsidiary Not Deemed a Business Combination
When an acquisition of assets does not constitute a business combination, the assets and liabilities are assigned a carrying amount based on their relative fair values in an asset purchase transaction and no deferred tax will arise in relation to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as the initial exemption for deferred tax under AASB 12 applies. No goodwill will arise on the acquisition and transaction costs of the acquisition will be included in the capitalised cost of the asset.
(z) Foreign Currency Translation
Functional currency
Items included in the financial statements of the Group's operations are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates ('the functional currency').
The functional currency of the Company and controlled entities registered in Australia is Australian dollars (AU$).
The functional currency of the controlled entities registered in the US is United States dollars (US$).
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using 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 end of the reporting period. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settling foreign currency transactions, as well as from restating foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, are recognised in profit or loss, except when they are deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges or where they relate to differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.

(b) Tax Losses
As at 30 June 2024 the Company had tax losses of $ 34,345,264 (2023: $32,762,723). The benefit of deferred tax assets not brought to account will only be realised if:
· Future assessable income is derived of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised; and · The conditions for deductibility imposed by tax legislation continue to be complied with and no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit.

|
(c) Unbooked Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities
Deferred tax assets are estimated but not recognised at $8,586,316 at 30 June 2024 (2023: $8,190,681) so as to enable the Board to determine more reliably the probability of utilising these tax assets in the foreseeable future. |

(i) Credit Risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for doubtful debts, as disclosed in the balance sheet and in the notes to the financial statements. The Company does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single debtor or group of debtors, under financial instruments entered into by it.
(ii) Commodity Price Risk and Liquidity Risk
At the present state of the Company's operations it has minimal commodity price risk and limited liquidity risk due to the level of payables and cash reserves held. The Company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of exploration funding and flexibility through the use of available cash reserves.
(iii) Net Fair Values
For assets and other liabilities, the net fair value approximates their carrying value. No financial assets and financial liabilities are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form. The Company has no financial assets where the carrying amount exceeds net fair values at balance date.
The aggregate net fair values and carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities are disclosed in the balance sheet and in the notes to the financial statements.
|
26 Contingent Liabilities
|
There were no material contingent liabilities not provided for in the financial statements of the Company as at 30 June 2024.
