NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data |
| a. | Nature of operations |
| | |
| | Adira Energy Ltd and its subsidiaries ("Adira" or "the Company"), is an oil and gas early- stage exploration company. Adira is a limited company, incorporated on April 8, 2009, and domiciled in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010 were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on August 25, 2011. |
| | |
| | The Company has been granted four petroleum licenses in Israel. The Company's wholly- owned Canadian subsidiary, Adira Energy Holding Corp. owns three wholly owned Israeli subsidiaries as follows: (i) Adira Energy Israel Limited, which holds three petroleum licenses consisting of one onshore petroleum license, the "Eitan License No. 356" ("Eitan") of which it owns a 100% interest, and two offshore licenses being the "Gabriella License No. 378" ("Gabriella") of which it owns a 15% interest and the "Yitzhak License No. 380" ("Yitzhak") of which it owns 85% interest (ii) Adira Oil Technologies Limited ("AOT") has been granted a 23.25% interest in one petroleum offshore license, the "Samuel License No. 388" ("Samuel"), (Gabriella, Yitzhak and Samuel - collectively the "Offshore Licenses") (iii) Adira Energy Israel Services Ltd. provides operating and professional services in respect of the various licenses described above. Adira Energy Holding Corp. also owns 60% of Adira Geo Global Limited ("AGG"), which has been granted a 30% interest in Samuel. |
| | |
| | Adira is the operator of Gabriella, Yitzhak and Eitan and the joint operator of Samuel. As the operator and the joint operator, the Company has established Unincorporated Joint Ventures ("UJV’s") to manage the exploration activities of each of the offshore licenses. The Company receives consulting and operator fees in accordance with the terms of Joint Operating agreements signed between the Company and each of its consortium partners in the UJV’s. |
| | |
| b. | Financial position: |
| | |
| | As reflected in the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2010, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $ 9,680 and in 2010, the Company had negative cash flows from operations of $ 3,025. The Company is an early-exploration stage company and its existing funds and operating revenues are currently insufficient to finance its future operating expenses and exploration funding commitments. |
| | |
| | The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete development, and upon future profitable operations from the properties or proceeds from their disposition. |

| | There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to raise funds from the aforementioned sources in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. |
| | |
| c. | Change of fiscal year: |
| | |
| | The Company changed its fiscal year-end from September 30 to December 31, and comparative data have been adjusted accordingly. |
| | |
| d. | Share exchange agreement: |
| | |
| | AMG Oil Ltd. ("AMG") was incorporated on February 20, 1997 under the name Trans New Zealand Oil Company in the State of Nevada, United States of America. It changed its name to AMG Oil Ltd. on July 27, 1998. On November 25, 2008, AMG's shareholders approved the change of its jurisdiction of incorporation from the State of Nevada to the Canadian federal jurisdiction. |
| | |
| | On April 29, 2009, AMG entered into a letter of intent to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Adira in exchange for shares of AMG. On September 1, 2009, AMG completed the share exchange with Adira which resulted in a reverse takeover by Adira of AMG. The share exchange ratio was one common share of AMG for each issued and outstanding common share of Adira. Accordingly, AMG issued 39,040,001 common shares to Adira's shareholders. The share exchange was completed together with a private placement by Adira of $2,000 through the issuance of 8,000,000 units (Note 14(b)). |
| | |
| | On December 17, 2009, AMG changed its name to Adira Energy Ltd. |
| | |
| | As a result, the original shareholders of AMG owned 37% of the shares of the Company and the former shareholders of Adira owned 63% of the Company as follows: |
| | Issued and | | |
| | outstanding number | | |
| | of shares after share | | |
| | exchange | | Percentage |
| | | | |
| Shareholders of: | | | |
| | | | |
| AMG | 23,200,000 | | 37% |
| Adira | 39,040,001 | | 63% |
| | | | |
| Total outstanding shares | 62,240,001 | | 100% |

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data |
As the shareholders of Adira obtained control of the Company, the share exchange should reflect the substance of the transaction, which is a capital transaction, rather than a business combination. That is, the transaction is a reverse recapitalization, equivalent to the issuance of shares by the private company (Adira) for the net monetary assets of the public shell company (AMG), accompanied by a recapitalization. The accounting is similar to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangible assets should be recorded. The assets and liabilities of Adira are included at their carrying value and the assets and liabilities of AMG are included at fair value. Equity represents the authorized and issued number of shares of AMG (the legal parent) and the share capital, additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit of Adira (the legal subsidiary), the ongoing operating company. In addition, the comparative data presented in these financial statements are those of Adira.
As the transaction is not a business combination under IFRS 3, since AMG is a non-operating shell company, the transaction is a share-based payment transaction under IFRS 2, whereby Adira is deemed to have issued shares in exchange for the $ 897 of cash and receivables held by AMG together with the listing status of AMG. As the listing status does not qualify for recognition as an intangible asset, an expense of $ 4,902 representing the excess of the fair value of the deemed shares issued to the original shareholders of AMG over the fair value of the net assets of AMG was recorded in the statement of comprehensive loss in 2009 as issuance expenses.
NOTE 2:- | BASIS OF PREPARATION |
| |
| The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). |

NOTE 3: | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| |
| The following are the significant accounting policies applied by the Company in preparing its consolidated financial statements for all periods presented unless authorities stated. |
| a. | Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements: |
| | |
| | The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgment, estimates and assumptions that have an effect on the application of the accounting policies and on the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed regularly. Changes in accounting estimates are reported in the period of the change in estimate. |
| | |
| b. | Consolidated financial statements: |
| | |
| | The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of companies that are controlled by the Company (subsidiaries). Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity. The effect of potential voting rights that are exercisable at the end of the reporting period is considered when assessing whether an entity has control. The consolidation of the financial statements commences on the date on which control is obtained and ends when such control ceases. |
| | |
| | All intercompany balances and transactions and gains or losses resulting from intercompany transactions are eliminated in full in the consolidated financial statements. |
| | |
| | The financial statements of the Company and of the subsidiaries are prepared as of the same dates and periods. The consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies by all companies in the Company. |
| | |
| c. | Joint oil and gas ventures: |
| | |
| | The Company conducts petroleum and natural gas exploration activities jointly with other partners who each have direct ownership in the assets and each are directly obligated for the liabilities of the ventures. Consequently, these financial statements reflect only the Company's proportionate interest in such activities. |
| | |
| | The Company accounts for its share of the joint venture's assets, liabilities it has incurred, income from the sale or use of its share of the joint venture's output, together with its share of the expenses incurred by the joint venture and any expenses it incurs in relation to its interest in the joint venture. |

NOTE 3: | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |
| d. | Farm-out arrangements in the exploration and evaluation phase: |
| | |
| | A farm-out is the transfer of part of an oil and gas interest in consideration for an agreement by the transferee ("farmee") to meet, absolutely, certain expenditures which would otherwise have to be undertaken by the owner ("farmor"). Farm-out transactions generally occur in the exploration or development phase and are characterized by the transferor (i.e. farmor) giving up future economic benefits, in the form of reserves, in exchange for a reduction in future funding obligations. |
| | |
| | Accordingly, the farmee recognizes its expenditure under the arrangement in respect of its interest and that retained by the farmor, as and when the costs are incurred. |
| | |
| | The Company (farmor) accounts for the farm-out arrangement as follows: |
| - | the farmor does not record any expenditure made by the farmee on its behalf; |
| | |
| - | The farmor does not recognize a gain or loss on the farm-out arrangement, but rather redesignates any costs previously capitalized in relation to the whole interest as relating to the partial interest retained; and |
| | |
| - | any cash consideration received is credited against costs previously capitalized in relation to the whole interest with any excess accounted for by the farmor as a gain on disposal. |
| e. | Functional currency and foreign currency: |
| | | |
| | 1. | Functional currency and presentation currency: |
| | | |
| | | The functional currency, which is the currency that best reflects the economic environment in which the Company operates and conducts its transactions, is separately determined for each Company entity and is used to measure its financial position and operating results. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. |
| | | |
| | | The presentation currency of the financial statements is the U.S. dollar. |
| | | |
| | 2. | Transactions, assets and liabilities in foreign currency: |
| | | |
| | | Transactions denominated in foreign currency (other than the functional currency) are recorded on initial recognition at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. After initial recognition, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the end of each reporting period into the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Exchange differences, are recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at cost are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. |

NOTE 3:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |
| f. | Cash equivalents: |
| | |
| | Cash equivalents are considered as highly liquid investments, including unrestricted short-term bank deposits with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or with a maturity of more than three months, but which are redeemable on demand without penalty and which form part of the Company's cash management. |
| | |
| g. | Allowance for doubtful accounts: |
| | |
| | The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined in respect of specific debts whose collection, in the opinion of the Company's management, is doubtful. No allowance for doubtful account exists as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. |
| | |
| h. | Consumables |
| | |
| | Consumables (not allocated to specific wells) are stated at cost and are comprised of disposable supplies used by the Company in its drilling activities. |
| | |
| i. | Property and equipment: |
| | |
| | Property and equipment are measured at cost, including directly attributable costs, less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes spare parts and auxiliary equipment that can be used only in connection with the machinery and equipment. |
| | |
| | Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the assets at annual rates as follows: |
| % |
| |
Drilling rig and related equipment | 10 |
Office furniture and equipment | 10 |
Computers and peripheral equipment | 33 |
The useful life, depreciation method and residual value of an asset are reviewed at least each year-end and any changes are accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimate.

NOTE 3:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |
| j. | Exploration and evaluation assets: |
| | | |
| | Prelicense costs: |
| | | |
| | Pre-license costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. |
| | | |
| | Exploration and evaluation costs: |
| | | |
| | Oil and natural gas exploration and development expenditure is accounted for using the successful efforts method of accounting. |
| | | |
| | During the geological and geophysical exploration phase, costs are charged against income as incurred. Once the legal right to explore has been acquired, costs are directly associated with an exploration well are capitalized as exploration and evaluation intangible assets until the drilling of the well is complete and the results have been evaluated. These costs include employee remuneration, materials and fuel used, rig costs and payments made to contractors. If no reserves are found, the exploration asset is tested for impairment. If extractable hydrocarbons are found and, subject to further appraisal activity (e.g., by drilling further wells), are likely to be developed commercially, the costs continue to be carried as an intangible assets while sufficient and continued progress is made in assessing the commerciality of the hydrocarbons. All such costs are subject to technical, commercial and management review as well as review for impairment at least once a year to confirm the continued intent to develop or otherwise extract value from the discovery. When this is no longer the case, the costs are written off. When proved reserves of oil are determined and development sanctioned, the relevant expenditure is transferred to oil and gas properties after impairment is assessed and any resulting impairment loss is recognized. |
| | | |
| | As of December 31, 2010, substantially all exploration costs have been expensed. |
| | | |
| k. | Taxes on income: |
| | | |
| | Taxes on income in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss comprise current and deferred taxes. Current or deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that the tax arises from items which are recognized directly in other comprehensive income or in equity. In such cases, the tax effect is also recognized in the relevant item. |
| | | |
| | 1. | Current taxes: |
| | | |
| | | The current tax liability is measured using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of reporting period as well as adjustments required in connection with the tax liability in respect of previous years. |

| 2. | Deferred taxes: |
| | |
| | Deferred taxes are computed in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts in the financial statements and the amounts attributed for tax purposes. Deferred taxes are recognized directly in other comprehensive income or in equity if the tax relates to those items. |
| | |
| | Deferred taxes are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the taxes are reversed in profit or loss, comprehensive income or equity, based on tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. |
| | |
| | Deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is not probable that they will be utilized. Also, temporary differences (such as carryforward losses) for which deferred tax assets have not been recognized are reassessed and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that their recoverability has become probable. Any resulting reduction or reversal is recognized in the line item, "taxes on income". |
| l. | Share-based payment transactions: |
| | |
| | The Company's employees and other service providers are entitled to remuneration in the form of equity-settled share-based payment transactions. |
| | |
| | The cost of equity-settled transactions with employees is measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at grant date. The fair value is determined using the Black Scholes pricing model, additional details are given in Note 14. As for other service providers, the cost of the transactions is measured at the fair value of the goods or services received as consideration for equity instruments. In cases where the fair value of the goods or services received as consideration of equity instruments cannot be measured, they are measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. |
| | |
| | The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognized in profit or loss, together with a corresponding increase in equity, during the period which the performance and service conditions are to be satisfied, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award ("the vesting period"). The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at the end of each reporting period until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or income recognized in profit or loss represents the movement in the cumulative expense recognized at the end of the reporting period. |
| | |
| | If a grant of an equity instrument is cancelled, it is accounted for as if it had vested on the cancellation date, and any expense not yet recognized for the grant is recognized immediately. |

| m. | Post-employment benefits: |
| | |
| | The plans are normally financed by contributions to insurance companies and classified as defined contribution plans or as defined benefit plans. |
| | |
| | The Company's Israeli subsidiary has defined contribution plans pursuant to Section 14 to the Severance Pay Law, 1963, under which the Company pays fixed contributions and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient amounts to pay all employee benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods; therefore, upon release of the policy to the employee, no additional liability exists between the parties regarding the matter of severance pay and no additional payments shall be made by the company to the employee. Accordingly, severance liability and deposits on behalf of such liability are not presented on the balance sheet, as the Company has no further obligation to these employees once the deposits have been paid. |
| | |
| n. | Revenue recognition: |
| | |
| | Revenues are recognized in profit or loss when the revenues can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. |
| | |
| | The Company’s revenues are derived from: |
| | |
| | Operator fees - the Company acts as the operator or joint operator on the Offshore Licenses and is entitled to operator fees on a cost plus basis of the total exploration costs incurred by the respective UJV's. Revenues from operator fees are recognized in accordance with the terms of the Joint Operating Agreements, as exploration expenses are incurred in the UJV’s. |
| | |
| | Consulting fees – The Company provides consulting services in respect of the Offshore Licenses on a "time and materials" basis. Consulting fees are recognized as revenues as the services are rendered to the respective UJV's. |
| | |
| o. | Finance income and expenses: |
| | |
| | Finance income comprises interest income on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and exchange rate gains and losses. |
| | |
| | Gains and losses on exchange rate differences are reported on a net basis. |

| p. | Loss per share: |
| | |
| | Loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted number of Ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Basic loss per share only include shares that were actually outstanding during the period. Potential Ordinary shares (warrants and employee options) are only included in the computation of diluted loss per share when their conversion decreases earnings per share or increases loss per share from continuing operations. Further, potential Ordinary shares that are converted during the period are included in diluted earnings per share only until the conversion date and from that date in basic earnings per share. |
| | |
| | All share options and warrants outstanding during the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 (see Note 14) have not been included in the calculation of diluted loss per share on they are antidilutive |
| | |
| | See Note 20 for details of transactions involving ordinary shares between the reporting date and the date of approval of these financial statements. |
| | |
| q. | Decommissioning liability: |
| | |
| | Decommissioning liability is recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of obligation can be made. A corresponding amount equivalent to the provision is also recognized as part of the cost of the relegated property and equipment. The amount recognized is the estimated cost of decommissioning, discounted to its present value. Changes in the estimated timing of decommissioning or decommissioning cost estimates are dealt with prospectively by recording an adjustment to the provision, and a corresponding adjustment to property and equipment. The unwinding of the discount on the decommissioning provision is included as a finance cost. |
| | |
| | As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company's decommissioning liability is $ 15 and $ 0, respectively. |
| | |
| r. | Presentation of statement of comprehensive loss: |

| s. | Disclosure of new IFRSs in the period prior to their adoption: |
| | | |
| | IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Disclosure: |
| | | |
| | The amendments to IFRS 7 deal with the following issues: |
| | | |
| | 1. | Clarification of the Standard's disclosure requirements. In this context, emphasis is placed on the interaction between the quantitative disclosures and the qualitative disclosures about the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments. The Standard also reduces the disclosure requirements for collateral held by the Company and revises the disclosure requirements for credit risk. The amendment should be applied retrospectively commencing from the financial statements for periods beginning on January 1, 2011. Earlier application is permitted. |
| | | |
| | 2. | New disclosure requirements about transferred financial assets including disclosures regarding unusual transfer activity near the end of a reporting period. The objective of the amendment is to assist users of financial statements to assess the risks to which the Company may remain exposed from transfers of financial assets and the effect of these risks on the Company's financial position. The amendment is designed to enhance the reporting transparency of transactions involving asset transfers, specifically securitization of financial assets. The amendment should be applied prospectively commencing from the financial statements for periods beginning on January 1, 2012. Earlier application is permitted. |
The relevant disclosures will be included in the Company's financial statements.
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments:
| 1. | In November 2009, the IASB issued IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments", the first part of Phase 1 of a project to replace IAS 39, "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". IFRS 9 focuses mainly on the classification and measurement of financial assets and it applies to all financial assets within the scope of IAS 39. |
| | | |
| | According to IFRS 9, all financial assets (including hybrid contracts with financial asset hosts) should be measured at fair value upon initial recognition. In subsequent periods, debt instruments should be measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met: |
| | | |
| | - | the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect the contractual cash flows. |
| | | |
| | - | the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. |

NOTE 3:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |
| | Notwithstanding the aforesaid, upon initial recognition, the Company may designate a debt instrument that meets both of the abovementioned conditions as measured at fair value through profit or loss if this designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency ("accounting mismatch") that would have otherwise arisen. |
| | |
| | Subsequent measurement of all other debt instruments and financial assets should be at fair value. |
| | |
| | Financial assets that are equity instruments should be measured in subsequent periods at fair value and the changes recognized in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income, in accordance with the election by the Company on an instrument-by-instrument basis (amounts recognized in other comprehensive income cannot be subsequently transferred to profit or loss). Nevertheless, if equity instruments are held for trading, they should be measured at fair value through profit or loss. This election is final and irrevocable. When an entity changes its business model for managing financial assets it shall reclassify all affected financial assets. In all other circumstances, reclassification of financial instruments is not permitted. |
| | |
| | The Standard is effective commencing from January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. Upon initial application, the Standard should be applied retrospectively, except as specified in the Standard. |
| | |
| 2. | In October 2010, the IASB issued certain amendments to IFRS 9 regarding derecognition and financial liabilities. According to those amendments, the provisions of IAS 39 will continue to apply to derecognition and to financial liabilities for which the fair value option has not been elected (designated as measured at fair value through profit or loss); that is, the classification and measurement provisions of IAS 39 will continue to apply to financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. |
| | |
| | The changes arising from these amendments affect the measurement of a liability for which the fair value option has been chosen. Pursuant to the amendments, the amount of the adjustment to the liability's fair value that is attributable to changes in credit risk should be presented in other comprehensive income. All other fair value adjustments should be presented in profit or loss. If presenting the fair value adjustment of the liability arising from changes in credit risk in other comprehensive income creates an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, then that adjustment should also be presented in profit or loss rather than in other comprehensive income. |
| | |
| | Furthermore, according to the amendments, derivative liabilities in respect of certain unquoted equity instruments can no longer be measured at cost but rather only at fair value. |

NOTE 3:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |
The amendments are effective commencing from January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted provided that the Company also adopts the provisions of IFRS 9 regarding the classification and measurement of financial assets (the first part of Phase 1). Upon initial application, the amendments should be applied retrospectively, except as specified in the amendments.
The Company believes that the amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements.
IFRS 10– Consolidated Financial Statement ("IFRS 10"):
IFRS 10 replaces the requirements of IAS 17, "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements", and the requirements of SIC-12, "Consolidation – Special Purpose entities", with respect to the consolidation of financial statements, so that the requirements of IAS 27 will continue to be valid only for separate financial statements (IAS 27R (revised 2011), "Separate Financial Statements). IFRS 10 introduces a new single control model for determining whether an investor controls an investee and should therefore consolidate it. (This model is implemented with respect to all investees, including investees that currently fall into the requirements of SIC 12). According to the model, an investor controls and investee when it is (1) exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with that investee, (2) has the ability to affect those returns through its power over that investee, and (3) there is a link between the investor's power and the return. In addition, IFRS 10 states that "de facto" power should be considered when assessing control. This means that the existence of de facto control could require consolidation. When assessing control, all substantive potential voting rights will be taken into account. The structure, reasons for existence and condition s of potential voting rights should be considered. IFRS 10 is applicable retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Early adoption is permitted providing that disclosure is provided and that the entire consolidation suite is early adopted, meaning also the two additional standards that were issued – IFRS 11, "Joint Arrangements", and IFRS 12, "Disclosure of Involvement with Other Entities".
The Company believes that the new Standard will not have a material effect on its financial statements.
IFRS 11– Joint Arrangements ("IFRS 11"):
IFRS 11 replaces the requirements of IAS 31, "Interests in Joint Ventures", and amends part of the requirements in IAS 28, "Investments in Associates". IFRS 11 is applicable retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, but there are specific requirements for retrospective implementation in certain cases. Early adoption is permitted providing that disclosure is provided and that the entire consolidation suite is adopted at the same time, meaning also the two additional standards published – IFRS 10, "Consolidated Financial Statements", and IFRS 12, "Disclosure of Involvement with Other Entities".

The Company believes that the new Standard will not have a material effect on its financial statements.
IAS 28R– Investments in Associates and joint Ventures ("IAS 28R"):
IAS 28R replaces the requirements of IAS 28, "Investments in Associates", as a result of the publication of IFRS 11, as mentioned above. IAS 28R states, among other things, that IFRS 5 applies to an investment, or a portion of an investment, in an associate or a joint venture, that meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale. Until the disposal of the portion of the investment that has been classified as held for sale ,the equity method continues to be applied on the portion of the investment that has not been classified as held for sale. Early adoption is permitted providing that disclosure is provided and that the entire consolidation suite is adopted at the same time, meaning also the additional standards published – IFRS 10, "Consolidated Financial Statements", IFRS 11, "Joint Arrangements" and IFRS 12, "Disclosure of Involvement with Other Entities".
The Company believes that the new Standard will not have a material effect on its financial statements.
IFRS 12– Disclosure of Involvement with Other Entities ("IFRS 12"):
IFRS 12 contains extensive disclosure requirements for entities that have interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements (i.e. joint operations or joint ventures), associates and unconsolidated structured entities. IFRS 12 is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Early adoption is permitted providing that the entire consolidation suite is adopted at the same time, meaning also the two additional standards published – IFRS 10, "Consolidated Financial Statements" and IFRS 11, "Joint Arrangements". Nevertheless, it is permitted to voluntarily provide the additional disclosures required by IFRS 12 prior to its adoption without early adoption of the other standards.
The relevant disclosure will be included in the Company's financial statements.
IFRS 13– Fair Value Measurement ("IFRS 13"):
In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 13. IFRS 13 replaces the fair value measurement guidance continued in individual IFRSs with a single source of fair value measurement guidance. It defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and sets out disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. IFRS 13 does not introduce new requirements to measure assets or liabilities at fair value. IFRS 13 applies to assets, liabilities and an entity's own equity instruments that, under other IFRSs, are required or permitted to be measured at fair value or when disclosure of fair value is provided. Nevertheless, IFRs 13does not apply to share-based payment transactions within the scope of IFRs 2, "Share-Based Payment", and leasing transactions within the scope of IAS 17, "Leases".

NOTE 3:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |
IFRS 13 does not apply to measurements that are similar to but are not fair value (such as the measurement of the net realizable value of inventory, in accordance with IAS 2, "Inventories", and the measurement of value in use, in accordance with IAS 36, "Impairment of Assets"). IFRS 13 is applicable prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted with disclosure of that fact. The disclosure requirements of IFRS 13 need not be applied in comparative information for periods before initial application.
The Company is evaluating the standard adoption's expected effects on the financial statements.
IAS 1– Presentation of Financial Statements: Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income ("the amendment"):
In June 2011, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 1, "Presentation of Financial Statements: Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income". The amendment changes the presentation of items of other comprehensive income ("OCI") in the financial statements, so that items of OCI that may be reclassified to profit or loss in the future, would be presented separately from those that would never be reclassified to profit or loss. Additionally, the amendment changes the title of the Statement of Comprehensive Income to Statements of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. However, entities are still allowed to use other titles. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012. The amendment will be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted providing that disclosure is provided.
The Company believes the adoption of the amendment will not have a material effect on the financial statements.
IAS 24 - Related Party Disclosures:
The amendment to IAS 24 clarifies the definition of a related party in order to simplify the identification of such relationships and to eliminate inconsistencies in its application. In addition, Government-related companies are provided a partial exemption of disclosure requirements for transactions with the Government and other Government-related companies. The amendment should be applied retrospectively commencing from the financial statements for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2011. Earlier application is permitted.
The relevant disclosures will be included in the Company's financial statements.

NOTE 9: | EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS (Cont.): |
| | In January 2010, Adira Energy Israel Ltd., signed an agreement with Modiin Energy Limited Partnership ("MELP") and Modiin Energy General Partners ("MEGP") (collectively "Modiin") to facilitate the full initial funding of the Gabriella License. Under the terms of the agreement, Modiin farmed in 70% of the rights of participation in the Gabriella License (the "Gabriella Project"). As discussed above, Brownstone has a 15% participating interest in the Gabriella License as well. Modiin has agreed to fund its 70% share, as well as the Company's 15% share of the work program up to a total of $ 8,000 (i.e. $ 1,200). |
| | |
| | In addition, Modiin will pay Adira: 1) a monthly management fee of $ 12.5 for a period of two years, 2) half of the management fees MEGP receives from MELP (3.75% of 7.5% management fees) in respect to this license, for a period of 24 months, commencing February 1, 2010, after which the amount increases to 4.25%; and 3) a royalty of 2.25% from both MELP and MEGP each from any resources extracted until Modiin recovers its costs incurred, after which the royalty increases to 5.25%. Due to the uncertainty of receipt of these fees and royalties in the event of the termination of the exploration program, these fees and royalties are recorded as income upon receipt. |
| | |
| | The Company has an option to purchase 15% of the Gabriella License from Modiin (or 21.43% of MELP's 70% interest) anytime until the earlier of six months after a discovery or seven years from July 2009. The exercise price for this option is the actual costs incurred by Modiin on the 15% interest up until the exercise date. |
| | |
| | The Company currently has a 15% carried interest in Gabriella. In addition, the Company is the operator of the Gabriella License and is entitled to receive a 7.5% operating fee on all its expenditures. |
| | |
| | Exploration activities of Gabriella during the year ended December 31, 2010 amounted to $ 6,801. The Company's 15% interest ($ 1,020) is not included in the Company's accounts for the year ended December 31, 2010, as the Company is being carried by Modiin for the Company's first $ 1,200 of exploration expenses. |
| | |
| (2) | Yitzhak: |
| | |
| | The Yitzhak license was awarded to the Company in October 2009 and covers 31,555 acres (127.7 sq.km) and is located approximately 17 km offshore Israel between Hadera and Netanya, directly to the North of and contiguous to Gabriella. The license was issued for an initial three year period and may be renewed upon fulfillment of certain conditions for a further four year period. The Company has a 85% working interest in this license. Brownstone has a 15% participating interest in the Yitzhak license, as well. In addition, the Company is the operator of the Yitzhak License and is entitled to receive a 7.5% operating fee on all its expenditures. |

| b. | Liquidity risk: |
| | | |
| | Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in obtaining funds to meet current obligations and future commitments. The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to forecast cash requirements to provide reasonable assurance that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when due. The Company maintains sufficient working capital in order to meet short-term business requirements. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $ 9,627 thousand, and accounts receivable prepaid expenses and other receivables of $7,977 thousand against current trade payables, other accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the amount of $ 7,940 thousand. |
| | | |
| c. | Market risk: |
| | | |
| | Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk is comprised of three types of risk: interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other price risk. |
| | | |
| | 1. | Interest rate risk: |
| | | |
| | | The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the short-term maturity of its cash equivalents. |
| | | |
| | 2. | Foreign currency risk: |
| | | |
| | | The Company is exposed to financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates. The Company operates in Israel. Most of the Company's monetary assets are held in U.S. dollars and most of the Company's expenditures are made in U.S. dollars. However, the Company also has expenditures in new Israeli shekels ("NIS") and Canadian dollars. A significant change in the currency rates between the NIS and the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar could have a material effect on the Company's future results of operations, financial position or cash flows depending on the Company's currency management techniques. The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations. An increase or decrease of 5% of the Canadian dollar or the NIS relative to the U.S. dollar would not have a significant effect on the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded net exchange rate loss of $5 thousand (2009 - gain of $ 15 thousand). |

NOTE 12:- | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont.) |
Capital management in the Company:
The Company is an early-stage exploration company and currently does not generate significant cash flows from operations. The Company's primary source of funds comes from the issuance of share capital. The Company does not use other sources of financing that require fixed payments of interest and principal and is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
The Company defines its capital as share capital. To effectively manage the Company's capital requirements, the Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to ensure that adequate funds are available to meet its strategic goals. The Company monitors actual expenses to budget to manage its costs and commitments.
The Company's capital management objective is to maximize investment returns to its equity-linked stakeholders within the context of relevant opportunities and risks associated with the Company's operating segment. Achieving this objective requires management to consider the underlying nature of exploration activities, availability of capital, the cost of various capital alternatives and other factors. Establishing and adjusting capital requirements is a continuous management process.
Although the Company has been successful at raising funds in the past through the issuance of share capital, it is uncertain whether it will continue this financing due to uncertain economic conditions. The Company has sufficient funds to meet its exploration program, administrative overhead and working capital needs for the coming year.
| a. | Tax rates applicable to the Group/the Company: |
| | | |
| | 1. | The corporate tax rate in Canada in 2010 is 18% (2009 – 19%), and the Ontario tax rate in 2010 is 13% (2009 – 14%). |
| | | |
| | 2. | The rate of the Israeli corporate tax is as follows: 2009 - 26%, 2010 - 25%. Tax at a reduced rate of 25% applies on capital gains arising after January 1, 2003, instead of the regular tax rate. In July 2009, the "Knesset" (Israeli Parliament) passed the Law for Economic Efficiency (Amended Legislation for Implementing the Economic Plan for 2009 and 2010), 2009, which prescribes, among others, an additional gradual reduction in the rates of the Israeli corporate tax and real capital gains tax starting 2011 to the following tax rates: 2011 - 24%, 2012 - 23%, 2013 - 22%, 2014 - 21%, 2015 - 20%, 2016 and thereafter - 18%. |

Stock options granted are expensed as share-based payments. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value stock options granted. The model requires management to make assumptions, which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values.
The fair value for options granted is amortized over their vesting period using a straight-line recognition method and estimated at the date of grant with the following assumptions:
| 2010 | | 2009 |
| | | |
| | | |
Dividend yield | 0% | | 0% |
Expected volatility | 113%-175% | | 175% |
Risk-free interest | 1.7%-2.4% | | 2.4% |
Forfeiture rate | 0% | | 0% |
Expected life | 5 | | 5 |
Expected volatility is based on historical volatility that is representative of future volatility over the expected term of the options. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk free interest rate is based on the yield of Canadian Treasury bonds with equivalent terms. The dividend yield is based on the Company's historical and future expectation of dividends payouts. The Company has not paid cash dividends historically and has no plans to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Pursuant to the CGH LOI, the Company has an option to obtain an interest in the Notera License, by paying CGH $200, and drilling and testing one cored well, at an approximate cost of $600.

NOTE 19:- | RECONCILIATION OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UNDERCANADIAN GAAP TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UNDER IFRS(Cont.) |
According to IFRS 1, IFRS are to be retroactively implemented in the opening balance sheet as of the transition date. Since the Company was incorporated in April 2009, the opening balance sheet in accordance with Canadian GAAP and IFRS is identical. In respect of the balance sheet as December 31, 2010, the share exchange as described in Note 1d resulted in the recording of issuance expenses of $4,902 in 2009, which increased the accumulated deficit as well the additional paid-in capital. The difference in accounting treatment had no net effect on total equity.
The only adjustment in the Company's consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2010, as a result of the transition to IFRS is due to the recognition of expense for stock based payments awards with graded vesting features. In accordance with Canadian GAAP, entities make an accounting policy election to recognize compensation costs of awards containing only service conditions either on a straight-line basis or on an accelerated basis, regardless of whether the fair value of the award is measured based on the award as a whole or for each individual tranche. Under IFRS, entities must recognize costs on an accelerated basis (each individual tranche must be separately measured). The Company has previously elected the straight line method per Canadian GAAP and as a result of the transition to IFRS has recorded an additional expense of $ 452 in its statements of comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2010.
