Sydney, Australia, Sept. 12, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heron Resources Ltd. (ASX:HRR TSX:HER, “Heron” or the “Company”) advises that, as a result of a review by the staff of the Ontario Securities Commission, Heron has filed an audit opinion in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2017 (“Annual Financial Statements”). The review was made in connection with a short form prospectus filing by the Company.
Heron has filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR®”), under Heron’s profile, the IFRS audit opinion and the Annual Financial Statements with the clarifications and modifications described below. Other than these clarifications and modifications, the Annual Financial Statements remain the same.
The Annual Financial Statements as at and for the year ended June 30, 2017 prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and audited in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, did not identify that the Annual Financial Statements were also prepared in accordance with IFRS and that the audit of same was prepared in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. It has been confirmed that the Annual Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, since the Australian Accounting Standards are equivalent to IFRS, and the audit on the same was conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, since the Australian Auditing Standards are equivalent to the International Standards on Auditing.
Furthermore, the auditor’s report of the Annual Financial Statements did not refer to the audit of comparative annual financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2016. As a result, the auditor’s report of the Annual Financial Statements now includes the consolidated statement of financial position of Heron as at June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Other than the foregoing modifications, the Annual Financial Statements remain the same.
