Chairman's Statement

Chairman Mladen Ninkov commented, "The internal process of renewing the retention licence over the Salmon Gums Project has been completed and all the relevant documentation, including a revised JORC Statement in compliance with revised requirements, lodged. A new retention licence is expected to be issued in the near future. Otherwise, as the case has been for some significant time now, the directors continue to investigate, approach, evaluate and negotiate new projects and acquisition opportunities to revitalize the Company. Needless to say, for all the reasons outlined in previous communications, this is a monumental task when attractive assets are involved. The Company is determined to see this task completed to its successful conclusion."

Notes to the CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED financial statements

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE SIX MONTH FINANCIAL REPORT

This condensed consolidated interim financial report for the six month reporting period ended 31 December 2017 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting.

The summary accounts set out above do not constitute statutory accounts as defined by Section 84 of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 or Section 435 of the UK Companies Act 2006. The condensed consolidated statement of financial position at 30 June 2017 and the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended have been extracted from the Group's 2017 statutory financial statements upon which the auditors' have opined that they were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence concerning the carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation costs totalling $4.340,000 in relation to the Salmon Gums Project for the year ended 30 June 2016 and qualified their prior year audit opinion accordingly. As a result of this matter, the auditors were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence concerning the opening balance as at 1 July 2016. Since opening capitalised exploration and evaluation costs balance affects the determination of the profit or loss for the year, the auditors were unable to determine whether adjustments to the consolidation profit or loss and other comprehensive income and accumulated losses might be necessary for the year ended 30 June 2016. The audit opinion on the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2016 was modified accordingly. The audit opinion on the financial statements to 30th June 2017 was also modified because of the possible effect of this matter on the comparability of the current year's figures and the corresponding figures. Apart from the possible effects of the foregoing the auditor's opinion is unqualified.

This condensed consolidated interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017 and any public announcements made by Spitfire Oil Limited during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements.

Copies of this interim report are available from the Company's London office, 8th Floor, 54 Jermyn Street, London, SW1Y 6LX.

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

Adoption of new and revised accounting standards

In the six months ended 31 December 2017, the Group has reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2017.

It has been determined by the Group that, there is no material impact of the new and revised standards and interpretations on its business and therefore no change is necessary to the Group's accounting policies.

The Group has also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the half-year ended 31 December 2017. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on its business and, therefore, no change necessary to Group accounting policies.

No retrospective change in accounting policy or material reclassification has occurred requiring the inclusion of a third Statement of Financial Position as at the beginning of the comparative financial period, as required under AASB 101.
