Review of Operations

 

Biodiesel feedstock Segment 

 

The Group owns a 20% stake in a refinery joint venture with Felda Global Ventures Holdings Berhad, the world’s largest palm oil producer, and Benefuels, a US based company with a ground breaking disruptive and patented technology process that allows refineries to be operated using substantially lower cost feedstock. The joint venture is in the final stages of a detailed engineering study which will determine the full anticipated cost of the retrofit and expected time frame for the retrofit to be completed and the refinery commissioned. In August 2015 the Company announced that the ongoing dispute with KNM Process Systems Sdn Bhd (KNM) has been amicably settled. The material terms of the settlement was that Mission paid KNM A$4m, being the amount put aside by Mission upon the sale of Mission’s 250,000 tpa refinery in February 2015, pursuant to a consent order agreed to by Mission and KNM earlier.

 

 2  

 

 

 

Pursuant to the convertible note settlement agreement announced in February 2015, the balance of the monies withheld (US$0.9 m) from the sale of the refinery, shown on Balance Sheet at 31 December 2015 as a Other Financial Asset with a corresponding amount shown as a short term provision, is expected to be paid to note holders pending formal confirmation of court proceedings.

Mission NewEnergy Ltd

 

Condensed notes to the consolidated interim financial statements

 

For the six months ended 31 December 2014

 

1.Nature of operations and general information

Mission New Energy Limited is a renewable energy company domiciled in Australia (ACN: 117 065 719) and:

 

·listed on the ASX (MBT) with its operations in Malaysia;

 

·That has a 20% interest in a Joint Venture owning a 250,000 tpa (approx. 75 million gallon p.a.) biodiesel refinery which is being retrofitted to produce bioiesel from lower cost feedstock.

 

 

2.Basis of preparation

 

The interim consolidated financial report of the Company as at and for the six months ended 31 December 2015 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”), and have been prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001.

 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

 

The consolidated interim financial report does not include all of the information required for a full annual financial report, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated annual financial report of the Group as at and for the year ended 30 June 2015. The consolidated annual financial report of the Group as at and for the year ended 30 June 2015 is available upon request from the Company’s registered office at Unit B9, 431 Roberts Road, Subiaco WA 6008 or at www.missionnewenergy.com.

 

This consolidated interim financial report was approved by the Board of Directors on the 24th February 2015.

 

3.Significant accounting policies

 

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting.

 

 11  

 

 

Mission NewEnergy Ltd

 

4.Estimates

 

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

 

Except as described below, in preparing this consolidated interim financial report, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that were applied to the consolidated financial report as at and for the half year ended 31 December 2015. During the six months ended 31 December 2015 management reassessed its estimates in respect of:

 

a.             Impairment of assets

 

The Group assesses impairment of assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that may lead to impairment. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined.

 

Investments in associates

 

Investments in associates are reviewed for impairment if there is any indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where a review for impairment is conducted, the recoverable amount is assessed by reference to the higher of ‘value in use’ (being the net present value of expected future cash flows of the relevant cash generating unit) and ‘fair value less costs to sell’.

 

5.Other revenue

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

 

To the members of Mission NewEnergy Limited

 

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

 

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Mission NewEnergy Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2015, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in

equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a statement of accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half-year.

 

 

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 consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2015 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 Mission NewEnergy 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 Mission NewEnergy Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.
