INTERIM STATEMENT FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 31(st) DECEMBER 2019
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 31(st) December 2019.
Spitfire and its subsidiaries (together "the Group") recorded a loss before tax for the six months ended the 31(st) December 2019 of A$113,324 (2018: A$325,594). With cash balances of A$2m, the Group has benefited from interest receipts of A$12,050 (2018 A$11,715) in the period. With all directors' fees suspended and other administration costs curtailed operating costs were A$102,527 (2018 A$86,680) and costs incurred prior to the relinquishment of the retention licence on the Salmon Gums lignite deposits of A$22,847 (2018 provision $250,620) have been written off.
Following the relinquishment of the Salmon Gums lignite tenement retention licence in September 2019 the directors have continued to review and investigate possible new projects and to revisit potential projects previously rejected, for acquisition by the Company. Unfortunately no potential projects have been identified that could bring value to the Company exacerbated by difficulties in raising finance for such projects in the markets at this time.
Chairman's Statement
Chairman Mladen Ninkov commented, "It has been a long and tortuous journey for the directors, management and shareholders of Spitfire. The dearth of projects and/or companies capable of being acquired, joint ventured or developed over the past decade has been frightening, not least for their lack of quality, resources or integrity of certain vendors. It has led to the inescapable conclusion that the Company should be suspended, delisted and liquidated and surplus funds returned to shareholders so that you may be able to deploy the capital in a more successful manner. I hope so in this particularly difficult world economic environment. "

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 2019 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 2019 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 2019 statutory financial statements upon which the auditors' report was 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 2019 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, 8(th) 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 2019, 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 2019.
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 2019. 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.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Since 31 December 2019, the directors have resolved that following the relinquishment of the Salmon Gums lignite tenement retention licence, as a result of; changes to the "Australian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves" requirements for the renewal of retention licences; a number of reviews of the economic feasibility of the Salmon Gums lignite project, in particular with consideration of the current and long term forecast for the continued relatively low oil prices; and the continuing costs of maintaining the retention licence over the Salmon Gums tenements; and despite substantial efforts by the directors and the Company's advisers to find another company, project or venture with the potential to bring value to Company, the Company is no longer serving any useful purpose and it is proposed that it be wound up by way of a Members' voluntary liquidation. Provision has not been made in the condensed financial statements to 31(st) December 2019 for ongoing costs to date of dissolution and liquidation costs.
