 Mr Greg Bandy (Managing Director) 
 Mr Jason Bontempo (Non-Executive Director) 
  Mr Nathan Rayner (Non-Executive Director) 
 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's net loss after taxation attributable to the members of Red Emperor for the year to 30 June 2017 was $758,918 (2016: $9,034,572).

DIVIDS

No dividend was paid or declared by the Company during the year and up to the date of this report.

CORPORATE STRUCTURE

Red Emperor Resources NL is a company limited by shares, which is incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The principal activity of the Company during the financial year was oil and gas exploration and project identification.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

PHILIPPINES (SC55)

Red Emperor provided further information to the Philippines Department of Energy (DoE) on request in the hope that the approval to have its equity interest in Block SC55 increased (from 15% to 37.5%) so a work program consisting of geological and interpretive studies can be undertaken.

Red Emperor participated in a USD $25m exploration well (Hawkeye) within the block in 2015 and contributed in excess of AUD $5m towards drilling costs. Over USD $50m has been spent exploring the block to date and a number of drill-ready targets remain, including the "Cinco" gas prospect which has a best estimate prospective resource of 1.6tcf recoverable gas. Given the Hawkeye well discovered gas and a working petroleum system relatively close to Cinco, Red Emperor believes that Block SC 55 remains a key asset for the Company to maintain exposure to.

GEORGIA

Red Emperor has been negotiating with Range Resources Limited to sell its 20% interest in Strait Oil & Gas for a nominal sum and a royalty. After a long and frustrating Joint Venture and uncertainty over the tenure of Blocks VIa and VIb, the company concluded that a divestment was both prudent and opportunistic. Full details of any proposed sale will be made available to shareholders in due course after formal documentation has been agreed and executed. The carrying value of this asset was written down to nil some time ago and the Company does not consider its shareholding to be of a core nature to its ongoing business activities or strategy.

CORPORATE

Red Emperor reviewed a number of new opportunities within the oil & gas sector with both its Australian and UK advisers respectively during the year. The Company also undertook due diligence on two assets outside the oil & gas space, specifically resource projects. While it remains focused on its current main undertaking, the board believes it to be a prudent strategy to widen its focus to include opportunities in all sectors that could potentially add value to shareholders, while it awaits formal approval from the Philippines DoE.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS

There have been no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year, other than as set out in this report.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE

There have been no other significant events subsequent to the end of the financial year to the date of this report.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Group will continue its investment in resource projects with the object of identifying commercial resources. The Company intends to pursue acquisition and investment opportunities to secure new projects in the natural resources sector.
