ASX/JSE Release
Resource Generation Limited today released its consolidated financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2017.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors and
signed by Denis Gately (Chairman). The directors take full
responsibility for the preparation of the annual report and that the
financial information has been correctly extracted from the underlying
annual financial statements. This summarised report is extracted from
audited information, but is not itself audited. The annual financial
statements were audited by Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu and their audit
opinion is available for inspection at the Company's registered office.

Auditors’ report includes the following material uncertainty paragraph:

We draw attention to Note 1(a) in the financial report, which indicates
that the Group incurred a net loss of $2.0 million (2016: $7.7 million)
and used net cash in operating activities of $4.1 million (2016: $5.2
million) during the year ended 30 June 2017. As stated in Note 1(a),
these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in
Note 1(a), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast
significant doubt on the Company’s and Group’s ability to continue as a
going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

The full set of financial statements are available on Resource
Generations Limited’s website. www.resgen.com.au

  1.   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 Interpretations
and the Corporations Act 2001. For the purposes of preparing the
consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.

The financial report of Resource Generation Limited also complies with
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").



3. Critical accounting estimates and judgements

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 areas
involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where
assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements,
are disclosed below.




Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on
historical experience and other factors, including expectations of
future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimates
and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the
next financial year are discussed below.




The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the
preparation of the financial report are consistent with those adopted
and disclosed in the Company's financial report for the year ended 30
June 2016. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian
Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting
Standards.
Capitalisation of Mining Tenements and Mining Development expenditure


Development expenditure incurred by or on behalf of the consolidated
entity is accumulated separately for each mine in which economically
recoverable reserves have been identified to the satisfaction of the
Directors. Such expenditure comprises direct costs plus overhead
expenditure incurred which can be directly attributable to the
development process, in accordance with AASB 116 'Property, Plant &
Equipment'.




All expenditure incurred prior to the commencement of commercial levels
of production from each area of interest is carried forward to the
extent which recoupment out of revenue to be derived from the sale of
production from the area of interest, or by its sale, is reasonably
assured. Once commercial levels of production commence, the development
expenditure in respect of that area of interest will be depreciated on
a straight-line basis, based upon an estimate of the life of the mine.




Development expenditure on the Boikarabelo Coal Mine has been fully
capitalised as per note 11. The Group is confident of the full recovery
of the expenditure on the Boikarabelo Coal Mine on the basis of the
financial modelling of the mine incorporating forecast production,
sales levels and capital expenditure. This model is updated regularly
and used to assess whether an impairment provision is required. Based
on the current critical estimates and judgements, the Directors do not
believe that an impairment provision is required.

As at 30 June 2017 the carrying value of the capitalised Mining
Tenements and Mining Development Expenditure is $153.7m (2016: $128.6m)
as disclosed in note 11. In the current year $10.0m of development
expenditure has been capitalised.

Management has exercised judgment in determining whether development
expenditure incurred meets the criteria for capitalisation, including:
  1. Assessing whether costs are directly attributable to bringing the
     mine to the location and condition necessary for operating as
     intended; and
  2. Assessing whether it is probable that the expenditure will result
     in future economic benefits, including an assessment of the
     availability of adequate funding for development and exploitation
     of the assets or alternatively, the ability to sell the asset.
Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment and Mining Tenements and
Mining Development expenditure

As at 30 June 2017 the carrying value of Property, Plant and Equipment
and Mining Tenements and Mining Development Expenditure is $33.1m
(2016: $30.4m) and $153.7m (2016: $128.6) respectively, as disclosed in
notes 10 and 11.

Management has exercised judgment in determining whether indicators of
impairment exist for Property, Plant and Equipment and Mining Tenements
and Mining Development Expenditure. When such indicators are
identified, management is required to exercised significant judgment in
making and estimate of recoverable amount of these assets, including:
  1. Future cash flows for Cash Generating Units (‘CGU’), which include
     estimates of future coal prices, operating and capital costs and
     foreign exchange rates; and
  2. Discount rates.

4. Segment information

   4.1 Description of operating segments

   Management has determined the segments based upon reports reviewed by
   the Board that are used to make strategic decisions. The Board
   considers the business from both a business and geographic
   perspective, with the Board being the chief operating decision maker.

   Business segments
   The Group has coal interests in South Africa. The main priority is to
   develop its Coal Resources in the Waterberg region of South Africa.
   Management has determined that there is one operating segment, being
   mining tenements and mining development. Unallocated corporate
   administration reflects other corporate administration costs.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the
Group's accounting policies described in note 1. The mining tenements
and mining development segment loss represents the loss incurred by that
segment without allocation of central administration costs and salaries,
gains and losses, finance costs and income tax expense, all of which are
included in the corporate segment. This is the measure reported to the
chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resource allocation
and assessment of segment performance.

5     Events occurring after the reporting period
Subsequent to the end of the financial year, the Board believed it would
be reasonable to ask the Debt Club members to undertake their credit
approval process to a conclusion notwithstanding the lack of an Eskom
memorandum of understanding, but on the basis that any draw down of
senior debt be subject to a concluded domestic coal supply agreement
being in place.

However, on 23 August 2017 some Debt Club members formally declined to
proceed on that basis. Instead they required a greater degree of
certainty around the terms of supply to Eskom before proceeding to
secure credit approval for funding of the project. In the circumstances,
the Board now believes that seeking project finance from the Debt Club
is no longer viable.

Mindful of the present difficulties in securing terms of supply with
Eskom, management has in parallel been exploring an alternative funding
proposal to place before the Board (the Alternative Funding). This
proposal is not subject to a committed domestic coal supply agreement.
The credit approval processes of these lenders, who are familiar with
the project, have commenced and are expected to be concluded by October
2017. Provided those processes are successful, a signed term sheet could
be expected before the end of October 2017. At that time the Board will
consider a recommendation from management and make a decision on the
Alternative Funding proposal.
Subsequent to the end of the financial year, Noble agreed to defer the
date on which loan repayments were to commence from September 2017 to
April 2018.

There are no other events that have occurred subsequent to the end of
the financial year that have significantly affected or may significantly
affect:
     (i)     the Group’s operations in future financial years, or
     (ii)    the results of those operations in future financial years,
            or
     (iii)   the Group’s state of affairs in future financial years.
