4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

On November 21, 2016, Lonestar Resources US Inc. (the “Company”) identified a material weakness in its financial close process for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 which resulted in an error in the proper classification of cash flows related to the Company’s gain on disposal of bonds. The Company concluded, after consulting with BDO USA, LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm (“BDO”), that the Company’s unaudited consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 that were included in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 (the “Original Form 10-Q”) should no longer be relied upon.

To remediate the material weakness, the Company has instituted a financial reporting issues log to highlight infrequent and unusual financial transactions (as was the gain on disposal of bonds) as a means to promote discussion between management and third party professional consultants to ensure that all items are addressed correctly and timely in future financial reporting. The Company has also corrected the error and, concurrent with the filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K, will be filing an amended report on Form 10-Q/A for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2016, with such amended report containing a restatement of the Company’s unaudited consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and corresponding revisions to certain disclosures in the Original Form 10-Q.

The following table summarizes the restatement changes made to the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 previously filed:


	Originally Reported			Restatement Adjustments			As Restated
Gain on disposal of bonds		—			(29,363	)		(29,363	)
Net cash provided by operating activities		46,986			(29,363	)		17,623
Payments on borrowings		(84,152	)		29,363			(54,789	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		(19,836	)		29,363			9,527
