INTERIM STATEMENT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2016

Spitfire Oil Limited ("Spitfire" or "the Company") is pleased to publish a copy of its condensed consolidated unaudited interim results for the six months ended the 31st December 2016.

Spitfire and its subsidiaries (together "the Group") recorded a loss before tax for the six months ended the 31st December 2016 of A$375,293 (2015: A$460,906). With cash balances of A$3.6m, the Group has benefited from interest receipts of A$42,945 (2015 A$58,350) in the period. Operating costs were A$188,936 (2015 A$258,065) and provision has been made for impairment of exploration and development costs incurred of A$229,302 (2015 A$261,191).

Chairman's Statement

Chairman Mladen Ninkov commented, "2017 has continued the appalling conditions found in the junior oil & gas sector over the past 5 years and beyond. As outlined previously to shareholders, the seismic shift to renewable energy generation and the continuing supply from existing and previously excluded hydrocarbon producers, has made this sector untenable for the junior, listed, oil & gas companies. The focus of the Company now firmly lies in the hard rock mining sector where supply shortages are becoming more pronounced. Despite evaluating over 100 acquisition opportunities, none met the parameters set by the Company. The directors continue to actively scour the world using their industry relationships to discover the Company's next acquisition knowing the difficulty even this strategic pathway entails."

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 2016 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 2016 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 2016 statutory financial statements upon which the auditors' have opined that they have been unable to obtain sufficient audit evidence to support the Director's assertion that the recoverable amount of the mineral resource tenement asset is at least equal to its carrying value. Apart from the possible effects of the foregoing the auditors opinion is unqualified. The condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss or other comprehensive income has been prepared using information extracted from the Group's 2015 statutory financial statements.

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 2016 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 2016, 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 2016.

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 2016. 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.

NOTE 2: SEGMENT INFORMATION

Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Board of Directors that are used to make strategic decisions. For management purposes, the Group has identified only one reportable segment, being the exploration and mining for valuable resources that produce energy in Australia.
