CHAIR’S REVIEW 

Dear Shareholder, 

I am once again very proud to present to our shareholders and broader stakeholders our 2022 Annual Report. 

The 2022 Financial Year has been a year of disciplined delivery against our Strategic Roadmap, set against a backdrop 
of the ongoing challenges associated with a COVID-19 impacted supply chain. The successful execution of our strategy 
will ensure we deliver on our Purpose – to design, produce and sell innovative braking solutions with the commitment 
to promoting sustainable business practices that protect people and the environment. 

In the 2022 Financial Year, we experienced a year of strategic growth in key markets, robust operational performance 
and  deepened  strategic  partner  relationships.  Advanced  Braking  Technology  (ABT)  continues  to  build  momentum 
globally, providing a world class innovative failsafe brake solution for customers in more than 40 countries within the 
mining services, defence and heavy industries.  

During the year, we announced a change to the composition of ABT’s Executive Team. We were pleased to appoint Mr 
Andrew Booth as Chief Executive Officer in March 2022 following an interim period where Andrew stepped into the 
Acting Chief Executive role in January 2022.  Andrew brings a strong strategic, commercial, investment and business 
development  skillset  and  experience  to  ABT,  from  a  diversified  career  in  Corporate  Development  and  Strategic 
leadership experience at an international level. This change was a result of Mr John Annand stepping down as Chief 
Executive Officer. We thank John for his contributions and guidance of the Company since his appointment in late 
2018 and wish him all the best in his future endeavours. 

As always, safety is core to our ethos at ABT. Over the last year, we have continued to evolve our overall approach and 
organisation  wide  safety  culture  as  we  build  the  foundations  for  next  level  growth.  This  is  about  supporting  and 
empowering our people to increase ABT’s capacity in how we manage risk. Further, ABT continues to focus on the 
relevance  of  Environment,  Social  and  Governance  (ESG)  trending  across  Industries  in  Australia  and  Globally.  ABT 
FailSafe  solutions  are  strongly  positioned  to  address  all  aspects  of  ESG  encompassed  within  good  corporate 
governance and the social impact by addressing the working environments of our customers in challenging industrial 
workplace settings.  

ABT’s growth outlook for FY23 is underpinned by our proven intellectual property in Sealed Integrated Brake System 
(SIBS) Design, our Bluechip customer base and our growth prospects internationally. We have now delivered a track 
record of sustained profitability, supported by a strong and strategic supplier base. Above all, we have a talented team 
which combined with the above, makes for a scalable business platform that is poised for growth. 

On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank our shareholders for their ongoing support and reiterate our thanks to 
our people for their unwavering commitment to ABT. I look forward to engaging with you at our upcoming Annual 
General Meeting.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REVIEW 

Dear Shareholder, 

FY22 has been a significant year for Advanced Braking Technology (‘ABT’) as we continued to execute our strategy and demonstrate 
financial results that support our growth objectives.  

ABT performed strongly, with record sales, solid product margins and positive trend continuing in EBITDA. With a sound cash flow 
and balance sheet, ABT is well positioned to continue to grow and deliver value accretion. ABT has deepened our strong base of 
customers  and  channel  partners,  expanding  via  both  customer  acquisition  and  further  developing  our  existing  customer 
relationships.  

ABT produced a strong year with our core product portfolio, delivering $11.09m in operating revenue, driving a repeated double 
digit annual growth delta with an 12% uplift in total revenue to $11.74m. Additionally, we delivered product sales margins of 45.1% 
and a positive EBITDA result at $0.966m for the year compared to $0.914m for FY21. With a focus on both driving sales, alongside 
disciplined cost management, we delivered a net profit of $0.644m vs $0.620m for FY21. We remained prudently resourced in 
FY22 and finished the year with a cash balance of $1.739m as at 30 June 2022. This cash reserve combined with no debt offers a 
balance sheet which ensures that we can continue to fund our ongoing operations and drive innovation in our products. ABT 
continues to consistently reinvest earnings in Research and Development, as for prior year FY21, equated to 12.7% of our Product 
Sales. 

Our location in Western Australia places us firmly in the epicentre of an exciting, technology driven industrial revolution. Western 
Australia is a recognised world leader in the field of automation for the mining sector. As a result, ABT is proactively engaged on 
industry trends and progress pertaining to the megatrends of automated, electric and connected vehicles in industrial settings. This 
includes proactive engagement with automotive manufacturers and suppliers as well as purposeful dialogue with ABT partners 
and as importantly; our customers, regarding this important topic. The increasing ESG focus within the industrial sector, both within 
Australia and internationally, has benefited ABT with strong growth in export sales. In particular, this includes Africa and North 
American markets.  

The global underground mining market is anticipated to grow ~18% CAGR 2022 – 2030 resulting from rapid industrialisation in 
developing nations and increasing implementation of Internet of Things, Automation and Electrification1
 Demand for Battery 
metals provides a springboard for growth for Mining and Mining Services as the world is going to need increasing supply of the 
essential  commodities  in  order  to  decarbonise  the  global  economy.    ABT’s  strategic  roadmap  is  subsequently  clear.  We  will 
continue to maintain and further deepen our dominant mining market penetration combined with a pursuit of new industry 
opportunity for our FailSafe products. Equally, innovation in F23 is focussed on vehicle diversification, including but not limited to 
the expansion of the failsafe applications for heavy vehicle applications.   

To illustrate this, we categorise our projects into ABT Growth, ABT Foundation and ABT Corporate. The 2023 Growth Projects 
address  our  key  strengths  and  opportunities  for  ABT  as  well  as  mitigate  current  and  future  competitive  market  dynamics. 
Fundamentally, our focus is on our customers’ needs being key. ABT has commenced a number of ‘Foundation projects’, focussed 
on strengthening our Operating Platform to optimise current needs and importantly support our future growth. Here, ABT’s valued 
strategic partnerships with our Supply Chain is key. Our Corporate Projects focus on inorganic and transformational opportunities 
with a medium to long term horizon view. Innovation and Industry 4.0 technology is key. 

In May I was pleased to announce the appointment of Ms Angela Godbeer as Chief Financial Officer. Angela brings substantial 
corporate,  strategic  and  finance  leadership  experience  to  ABT  with  significant  experience  in  an  ASX  listed  manufacturing 
environment.  

I want to thank our ABT team and all those who supported us in delivering these FY22 outcomes. Our operational and financial 
results provide the strong foundation upon which we are advancing our key projects which will drive accelerated growth and 
revenue diversification as part of our organic and inorganic growth agenda.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 

Business Overview 

Advanced Braking Technology Ltd (‘ABT’ or the ‘Company’) is an Australian company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange 
(ASX:ABV) that designs, manufactures and distributes its innovative braking solutions worldwide. From its head office in Perth, 
Western Australia, ABT continues to develop its product portfolio for a diverse range of industries that have a strong requirement 
for safety and environmental responsibility, including the mining, defence, civil construction and waste management industries. 

ABT’s  innovative  braking  solutions  are  well  known  for  their  unparalleled  safety,  improved  productivity,  zero  emissions  and 
durability in the world’s harshest conditions. As the Company’s reputation has grown, demand for ABT's brakes has expanded 
internationally with its braking solutions being used in all seven continents across the globe. Approximately 40% of operating sales 
comes from overseas locations including Canada, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South Africa and Chile in which ABT has key distribution 
partners. 

ABT has three strategic key supplier relationships, all located in Australia, which represent approximately 60% of ABT’s supply chain 
inputs. This primarily Australian-based supply chain has continued to contribute to the Company’s operational resilience to deliver 
ongoing sales growth and financial year results despite the enduring COVID-19 impacted supply chains. 

During FY22, ABT offered three key products: 

• 

• 

• 

The Sealed Failsafe Braking System providing safety and cost-effective wheel end braking solution for light commercial 
vehicles operating in the harshest industrial environments (including Underground). 
The Sealed Failsafe Emergency Driveline Braking System provides industry standard in fail-to-safe emergency braking in 
all environments for medium to heavy commercial vehicles. 
The Sealed Terra Dura Brake provides a durable and cost-effective wheel end braking solution for light commercial 
vehicles operating in the harshest open cut mining and on road environments. 

During  FY22,  the  Company  continued  to  deliver  improvements  in  our  customer  engagement  and  strategic  roadmap.  These 
included: 
• 
• 

delivering sustained double-digit revenue growth;  
strengthening financial and working capital position through record year-on-year sales growth, resulting in a positive cash 
flow from operations for the year; 
growing our export sales and international partners and deepening our valuable Bluechip customer relationships; 
creating a 2025 roadmap which includes both organic and inorganic strategy for ABT; 
focusing on strengthening ABT’s foundation capabilities to support scalability; 
Invest in R&D and strong evidence-based support for ABT Products and their industrial ESG attributes; 
supply chain strategy which increases strategic partnerships and a vertical integration where appropriate; 
investing in new product development which will deliver revenue diversification and scale opportunity. 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

The initiatives outlined above have set the Company up for a strong FY23 and beyond.  

Financial Summary 

The Company reported financial results for the year end 30 June 2022, with revenue of $11.74m for FY22 (FY21: $10.45m), which 
represents an 12.4% increase on the prior year. The net profit for the year of $0.64m (FY21: $0.62m) was achieved through an 
increase in sales revenue and controlled expense. 

The Company reports a balance sheet with cash and receivables of $3.7m (FY21:  $2.8m). Net assets as at 30 June 2022 have 
increased 13% ($0.6m) on FY21 balances. Cash balance of $1.7m, is up from the $1.4m at 30 June 2021. ABT experienced an 
increase  in  trade  and  other  payables  $0.7m,  which  relates  primarily  to  higher  levels  of  inventory  purchasing  to  support  the 
increasing operating sales revenues. The increase in liabilities is offset by a similar increase in trade receivables of $0.56m to $1.99m 
at 30 June 2022 (FY21: $1.43m).  

Revenue 

Operating revenue in FY22 of $11.1m (FY21: $9.7m) was achieved primarily from sales of the Company’s core Failsafe 
products and associated spares and consumables into the mining and civil construction industries.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 

The product margin for brake kits and consumable sales was slightly lower than the prior year at 45.1% (FY21: 46.3%) and the gross 
margin for FY22 is 44.4% (FY21: 46.3%). 

The estimated research and development (R&D) tax incentive refund for the year of $400k (FY21: $512k) is lower than prior years. 
The Company engaged in a focused product research and development program with a core customer who funded a portion of 
the research and development. The funded portion is not accessible for R&D tax offset and has been excluded from the estimated 
refund for the year ended 30 June 2022. 
During FY22, ABT received funds of $0.12 (FY21: $0.1m) in relation to a Defence Global Competitiveness Grant of up to $0.24m. 
The balance of the grant funding of $0.04m is expected to be received in the first half of FY23. 

Expenses 

Expenses for FY22 totalled $4.93m (FY21: $4.62m) representing a 6.9% increase on FY21 expenses. The increases in expenses were 
mainly driven by increased employee costs where key skills were required to deliver on the Company’s strategy and opportunities. 

With  the  easing  of  travel  restrictions,  and  most  national  and  international  services  recommencing,  employees  were  able  to 
commence onsite meetings with key customers and suppliers, building on the business relationships following long periods of 
virtual meetings. Travel costs in FY22 increased significantly from FY21 and contributed to the overall increase in expenses. 

Cash 

The cash balance of $1.7m (FY21: $1.4m) has increased on prior year due to higher revenue, however increased costs of materials 
has influenced both the product margins as well as the cash balances. The ongoing impact of COVID-19 on global supply chains has 
resulted in the Company taking a proactive approach to minimise disruption to customers by purchasing in advance and holding 
higher stock levels than previously required. The Company have a solid order book on which to place orders on, and as the Company 
looks to strengthen operations and build business resilience, the importance of supply chain risk management is more apparent 
than ever. This is a prudent and mandatory investment in securing the opportunity sales pipeline. 

Strategy implementation and product development 

With  the  sustained  financial  and  operational  performance  achieved  during  FY22,  ABT  is  focussing  on  methodical 
execution of its growth strategy. 

The growth strategy will be implemented through: 

•  organic growth of our existing business through continual internal innovation; 
• 

pursuing high impact growth opportunities in markets that require innovative braking systems for transport 
and mobility solutions of the future; 
inorganic growth through implementing our Joint Ventures, Partnering and Acquisitions strategy; and 
increasing control of our supply chain.

Diversification is a key strategic theme in FY23 through the following: 

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 

•  our product offering;  

• 

the industries which we supply;  

•  our customer base; 

• 

the geographic locations in which our products are found; and  

•  our network of suppliers, installation and service partners, and our international distributors. 

With a focus on leveraging our core SIBS intellectual property and existing product range as well as capitalising on our 
historical R&D, the Company is positioned to grow sales during FY23 to a broader range of customers and geographic 
regions. The diversification of vehicle variants to which these products can be fitted is based on market intelligence 
and understanding the fleet and asset management requirements of the customer, with a diligent focus on investment 
return benchmarks. 

ABT’s 2025 strategic horizon model illustrates the themes over a medium-term time band. FY23 focuses on deepening 
our market share across a global customer base parallel to strengthening our operating foundation to support growth. 
Investing in technology innovation is a strategic theme which points to Industry 4.0, the Internet of Things (IIOT)  and 
the automotive megatrends in play presently. A combination of these two horizons will provide the foundations for 
scaling ABT’s business operations to support a step change in growth.  

ABT’s 2025 Strategic Horizon  

Business Risk 

The material business risks faced by the company that are likely to influence the financial prospects of the company are detailed 
below.  In  addition  to  general  market  and  economic  risks,  such  as  share  market  risk,  shareholder  dilution,  general  economic 
conditions, legislative change and unforeseen expenses, shareholders should be aware of risk specific to ABT, which may include 
but are not limited to the following: 

(a)  Operational Risk - The current and future operations of the Company, including development, assembly, manufacturing 

and sales may be affected by a range of factors including: 

(1)  Delays in manufacturing products due to long lead time items or shortages of components. 
(2)  Customers experiencing shortage of supply vehicles to maintain fleets; 
(3)  A lack of skilled workers in a tight labour market resulting in reduced customer service levels; 

ADVANCED BRAKING TECHNOLOGY LTD - ANNUAL REPORT 2022 

8 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 

(4)  (A) competitor(s) developing a product range that rivals the performance of the Company’s products; 
(5)  Customers may begin to use vehicles in their operations for which the Company has not yet developed a suitable 

brake; and 

(6)  The inherent risk of supplying safety critical products to motor vehicles where any defect or failure may give rise 

to direct or consequential harm to assets. 

(b)  Performance Risk - The financial performance of the Company in any given year may have an adverse effect on the net 
carrying value of the Company’s intellectual property as well as the Company’s capacity to achieve an acceptable financial 
result and cash flow balance. 

(c)  Currency Risk - The Company trades with over ninety percent (90%) of its suppliers in Australian dollars. As a result, 
currency risk on purchases is negligible. The Company sells product into foreign markets in Australian dollars only and is 
therefore  considered  to  have  a  negligible  risk.  The  Company  therefore,  has  minimal  exposure  to  foreign  currency 
fluctuations against AUD between the date of sale or purchase and the date of receipt or payment. Refer to Note 26 for 
more information. 

(d)  Interest Rate Risk - The Company invests working capital cash surpluses by placing funds on a short-term deposit and/or 
cash maximiser account at the prevailing interest rates. There is a risk that income earned from interest bearing accounts, 
will fall short of target or the Company’s target rate of return. Refer to Note 26 for more information. 

(e)  Credit  Risk  -  The  Company  sells  product  on  30-day  net  credit  terms.  Although  the  Company  insures  customers 
domestically and internationally, were it is able to, there is still an exposure of $5,000 for each claim, plus 10% of the 
remaining balance on the customers’ account up to insured limits. The insurer has the right to refuse insurance on specific 
or new debtors based on their credit assessment. Refer to Note 26 for more information. 

(f)  Warranty - The Company’s products are sold under a twelve (12) month warranty. If a product fails during the period 
there is a risk that the product may have to be replaced under warranty, free of charge. In addition, in the event of product 
failure and consequential loss, the Company may be liable to pay damages for product failure.  The Company has product 
liability insurance for a limit of up to $20m. 

(g)  Obsolescence - The Company assembles its products from components purchased and stocked at various locations. 
Technology is constantly providing improvements in components and there is a risk that either component stock of the 
Company’s products could be subject to obsolescence due to technical innovations in materials, applications or methods. 
ABT has a focused inventory management program to identify components or applications that may be approaching 
obsolescence. 

(h)  Global  Climate  Change  –  The  Company  is  exposed  to  climate  change  impacts  that  effect  the  production  of  metal 
components and oil. Impacts to these raw commodities would have a significant financial impact on the Company’s 
operations and product offering. ABT seeks to reduce its environmental impacts in meaningful ways, such as recycling 
and seeking alternative low environmental impact substitutes for its product inputs. 

Growth and Outlook  

The Company’s agenda is underpinned by a strong focus on solutioning the safety needs of our customers operating in both 
developed and developing markets globally. This includes a clear and aligned channel to market strategy supported by a fully 
integrated sales & marketing framework targeting heavy industrial, mining, mining services and international distribution. 

The Company also continues to focus on strategic growth opportunities and are currently assessing key initiatives to drive scale, 
revenue diversification and enhanced innovation for the business.

further than the 12 month period. Under AASB 16: Leases, a change in scope of a lease, that was not part of the original terms and 
conditions of the lease, i.e., shortening the contractual lease term, results in a lease modification  

The practical expedients used by the group when adoption AASB 16: Leases for the first time included leases, that have a remaining 
term of 12 months or less, are accounted for in the same way as a short-term lease and expensed to the statement of profit or loss. As

such, the Right of Use Asset and Lease Liability have been derecognised as at the end of June 2022, resulting in a gain on derecognition 
of $73k which has been recognised in the statement of profit or loss under revenues from other activities. 

Defence Global Competitiveness Grant 
ABT was awarded a Defence Global Competitiveness Grant (‘Grant’) to the value of $0.24m by the Centre for Defence Industry 
Capability. The Grant was awarded to provide funding for the manufacturing of defence vehicle components for use within ABT 
designed braking mechanisms. The Grant funds were used primarily to acquire machinery to allow ABT to manufacture specific 
components that form part of the braking mechanism, as well as internal training and progressing the Company’s ISO accreditation. 
Initially, grant funding was to be provided over two financial years with $0.1m provided in FY21, and the balance of $0.14m to be 
provided in FY22. 

ABT requested an extension to the Grant due to delays in training and ISO accreditation following COVID-19 impacts. The extension 
was granted in June 22. The grant payments have been adjusted accordingly as follows: 
FY21 
FY22 
FY23 

$0.1m (received) 
$0.12m (received) 
$0.02m  

Research and Development tax incentive 
ABT received $512,000 as a refundable tax offset for eligible research and development expenditure relating to the development of 
its innovative braking solutions during FY21, following the lodgement of the Company’s FY21 income tax return. 

Significant Changes in the State of Affairs 

Mr John Annand stepped down as Chief Executive Officer by mutual agreement with the Board. Mr Andrew Booth, Director of Strategy 
and Commercial assumed the role of Acting Chief Executive Officer and was formally appointed as Chief Executive Officer in March 
2022. 

On the 2nd May 2022 the Company appointed Ms Angela Godbeer as Chief Financial Officer of the Group, following the resignation of 
Ms Paige Exley as Chief Financial Officer on the 12th May 2022 

Mr Ben Suda resigned his position as Director of Sales and Marketing on the 20th May 2022. 

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, ABT has continued to implement proactive and ongoing risk mitigation to ensure its people 
remain safe and well, and operations continue with minimal disruptions. 

Other than as described elsewhere in this report there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company during the 
financial year. 

Events subsequent to balance date 

Unlisted  options  for  Mr  J  Annand,  Ms  P  Exley  and  Mr  B  Suda  lapsed  following  their  respective  resignations  as  noted  in  the 
Remuneration  Report.  No  other  matter  or  circumstance  has  arisen  since  30  June  2022  that  has  significantly  affected,  or  may 
significantly affect the Company's operations, the results of those operations, or the Company's state of affairs in future financial years. 

Future developments  

With a focus on leveraging our core SIBS intellectual property and existing product range as well as capitalising on our 
historical R&D, the Company is positioned to grow sales during FY23 to a broader range of customers and geographic 
regions. The diversification of vehicle variants to which these products can be fitted is based on market intelligence and 
understanding the fleet and asset management requirements of the customer, with a diligent focus on investment return 
benchmarks. 

The Company will continue to develop its product offering through ongoing R&D to ensure it remains relevant long into 
the  future  as  automation  and  electrification  of  vehicles  gains  momentum  around  the  world,  and  the  environmental 
impacts from non-exhaust vehicle emissions, including brake dust particles, are better understood by government and 
consumers.

Remuneration Policy 

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

The remuneration policy of the Company is to pay executive directors and executives at market rates which are sourced from average 
wage and salary publications are subject to periodic reviews by external consultants and which may include a mix of short and long-
term incentives linked to performance and aligned with market practice.  In addition, Directors and employees may be issued shares 
and share options to encourage loyalty and to provide an incentive through the sharing of wealth created through equity growth which 
is linked to Company performance. The Remuneration Committee members believe the remuneration policy to be appropriate and 
effective and tailored to increase congruence between shareholders and Directors and executives. 

The following table shows the gross revenue, net profit / loss and ABV share price of the Company at the end of each respective 
financial year.

Non-Executive Director remuneration arrangements 

Remuneration policy 
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain directors of 
the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders. 

The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by Shareholders and the fee structure is reviewed against fees paid to 
non-executive  directors  of  comparable  companies.    The  Company’s  Constitution  and  the  ASX  listing  rules  specify  that  the Non-
Executive Directors’ fee pool shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting.  The latest determination was at the 2005 
Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on 1 November 2005 when Shareholders approved an aggregate fee pool of $300,000 per year. 

Structure 
The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors consists of directors’ fees.  There are no schemes for retirement benefits for Non-
Executive Directors other than statutory superannuation and Non-Executive Directors do not participate in any incentive programs.  
Other than the Chair, each Non-Executive Director received a base fee of $55,000 per annum plus the superannuation guarantee 
contribution. The Chair received a base fee of $85,000 plus the superannuation guarantee contribution.  

Voting and comments from the Company’s 2021 Annual General Meeting 
At the Company’s most recent Annual General Meeting held in November 2021, over 99.24% of eligible votes were cast for the 
adoption of the 30 June 2021 remuneration report. As no comments were received from shareholders who had voted against the 
resolution at that meeting, the Board does not propose any action with respect to its resolution at this time. The Board considers its 
remuneration policy to be appropriate and properly aligned with the current size and performance of the Group. 

Executive remuneration arrangements 

Remuneration level and mix 
The Group aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities 
within  the  Group  and  aligned  with  market  practice.    ABT  undertakes  an  annual  remuneration  review  to  determine  the  total 
remuneration positioning against the market. 

Remuneration Structure 
In the financial year ended 30 June 2022, the executive remuneration framework consisted of the following components: 

- 
- 

Fixed remuneration; and 
Variable remuneration

policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless 
stated otherwise. 

Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical 
costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial 
liabilities. 

These financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 30th August 2022. 

New and amended accounting policies adopted by the Group 

(a) 
The Group has considered the implications of new or amended Accounting Standards which have become applicable 
for the current financial report and the Group has not changed its accounting policies as there were no new standards 
for adoption during the period. 

Principles of Consolidation 

(b) 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  all  of  the  assets,  liabilities  and  results  of  the  parent  (Advanced  Braking 
Technology Ltd) and all of the subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it is 
exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through 
its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 12. 

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date 
on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. 
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully eliminated on 
consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity 
of the accounting policies adopted by the Group. 

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non-controlling interests”. The 
Group  initially  recognises  non-controlling  interests  that  are  present  ownership  interests  in  subsidiaries  and  are  entitled  to  a 
proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate 
share of the subsidiary’s net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit 
or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity 
section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income. 

Business combinations 
Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses. 

A  business  combination  is  accounted  for  by  applying  the  acquisition  method,  unless  it  is  a  combination  involving  entities  or 
businesses under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is attained, whereby 
the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised (subject to 
certain limited exemptions). 

When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent 
consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not 
remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

is remeasured each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the change in value 
can be identified as existing at acquisition date. 
All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed as incurred.  

The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances 

(c) 
Functional and presentation currency 
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in 
which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s 
functional and presentation currency. 

Transactions and balances 
Foreign  currency  transactions  are  translated  into  functional  currency  using  the  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of  the 
transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at 
historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair 
value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. 

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss, except where deferred in equity 
as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. 

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive income to 
the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is 
recognised in profit or loss. 

Group companies 
The financial results and position of foreign operations, whose functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation 
currency, are translated as follows: 
- 
- 
- 

  assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; 

  retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. 

income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and 

Exchange  differences  arising  on  translation  of  foreign  operations  with  functional  currencies  other  than  Australian  dollars  are 
recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial 
position. These differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

(d) 
Cash  and  cash  equivalents  include  cash  on  hand,  deposits  available  on  demand  with  banks,  other  short-term  highly  liquid 
investments, net of any bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are reported within short-term borrowings in current liabilities in the 
statement of financial position. 

Goods and Services Tax (GST) 

(e) 
Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the  amount  of  GST,  except  where  the  amount  of  GST  incurred  is  not 
recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). 

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable 
from, or payable to, the ATO is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. 

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which 
are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or 
payments to suppliers. 

Impairment of Assets 

(f) 
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The 
assessment  will  include  the  consideration  of  external  and  internal  sources  of  information  including  dividends  received  from 

ADVANCED BRAKING TECHNOLOGY LTD - ANNUAL REPORT 2022

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an 
impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair 
value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable 
amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another 
Standard (e.g. in accordance with the revaluation model in AASB 116). Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a 
revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard. 

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount 
of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

(g) 

Income Tax 

The income tax expense / (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense / (income) and deferred tax expense / 
(income). 

Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income. Current tax liabilities / (assets) are 
measured at the amounts expected to be paid to / (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. 

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well 
unused tax losses. 

Current and deferred income tax expense / (income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to items that 
are recognised outside profit or loss. 

Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, where 
there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised 
or the liability is settled and their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the 
carrying amount of the related asset or liability. 

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable 
that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. 

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax 
assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled, and it is not 
probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. 

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement 
or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are 
offset where: (a) a legally enforceable right of set-off exists; and (b) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes 
levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net 
settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which 
significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. 

(h) 

Financial Instruments 

Recognition and initial measurement 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the 
instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the Company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the 
asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted). 

Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except 
where the instrument is classified "at fair value through profit or loss", in which case transaction costs are expensed 
to profit or loss immediately. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In 
other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the trade receivables do not contain a significant 
financing component or if the practical expedient was applied as specified in AASB 15.63. 
Classification and subsequent measurement 

Financial liabilities 

Financial instruments are subsequently measured at: 

• 
• 

amortised cost; or 
fair value through profit or loss. 

A financial liability is measured at fair value through profit and loss if the financial liability is: 

- 

- 
- 

a contingent consideration of an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3: Business Combinations 
applies; 
held for trading; or 
initially designated as at fair value through profit or loss. 

All other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating 
interest expense in profit or loss over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the internal rate of return of 
the financial asset or liability. That is, it is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash flows through the 
expected life of the instrument to the net carrying amount at initial recognition. 

A financial liability is held for trading if: 

- 
- 
- 

it is incurred for the purpose of repurchasing or repaying in the near term; 
part of a portfolio where there is an actual pattern of short-term profit taking; or 
a derivative financial instrument (except for a derivative that is in a financial guarantee contract or a derivative 
that is in effective a hedging relationship). 

Any gains or losses arising on changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, to the extent that they are not part 
of a designated hedging relationship recognised in profit or loss. 

The change in fair value of the financial liability attributable to changes in the issuer's credit risk is taken to other 
comprehensive income and are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Instead, they are transferred to retained 
earnings upon derecognition of the financial liability. If taking the change in credit risk in other comprehensive income 
enlarges or creates an accounting mismatch, then these gains or losses should be taken to profit or loss rather than 
other comprehensive income. 

A financial liability cannot be reclassified. 

Financial assets 
Financial assets are subsequently measured at: 

- 
- 
- 

amortised cost; 
fair value through other comprehensive income; or 
fair value through profit or loss. 

Measurement is on the basis of two primary criteria: 

- 
- 

the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset; and 
the business model for managing the financial assets. 

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at amortised cost: 

- 
- 

the financial asset is managed solely to collect contractual cash flows; and 
the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal 
and interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

- 

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: 
the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal 
and interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates; 
the business model for managing the financial assets comprises both contractual cash flows collection and 
the selling of the financial asset. 

- 

By default, all other financial assets that do not meet the measurement conditions of amortised cost and fair value 
through other comprehensive income are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. 

The Group initially designates a financial instrument as measured at fair value through profit or loss if:  

- 

- 

- 

it  eliminates  or  significantly  reduces  a  measurement  or  recognition  inconsistency  (often  referred  to  as 
“accounting mismatch”) that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the 
gains and losses on them on different bases; 
it is in accordance with the documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the 
groupings was documented appropriately, so that the performance of the financial liability that was part of a 
Company of financial liabilities or financial assets can be managed and evaluated consistently on a fair value 
basis; 
it  is  a  hybrid  contract  that  contains  an  embedded  derivative  that  significantly  modifies  the  cash  flows 
otherwise required by the contract. 

The initial designation of the financial instruments to measure at fair value through profit or loss is a one-time option 
on initial classification and is irrevocable until the financial asset is derecognised. 

Equity instruments 
At  initial  recognition,  as  long  as  the  equity  instrument  is  not  held  for  trading  and  not  a  contingent  consideration 
recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3: Business Combinations applies, the Group has 
the option to make an irrevocable election to measure any subsequent changes in fair value of the equity instruments 
in other comprehensive income, while the dividend revenue received on underlying equity instruments investment 
will still be recognised in profit or loss.  The Group currently has no equity instrument financial assets. 

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised at settlement date in accordance 
with the Group’s accounting policy. 

Derecognition 
Derecognition refers to the removal of a previously recognised financial asset or financial liability from the statement 
of financial position. 

Derecognition of financial liabilities 
A liability is derecognised when it is extinguished (ie when the obligation in the contract is discharged, cancelled or 
expires). An exchange of an existing financial liability for a new one with substantially modified terms, or a substantial 
modification to the terms of a financial liability is treated as an extinguishment of the existing liability and recognition 
of a new financial liability. 

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and 
payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. 

Derecognition of financial assets 
A  financial  asset  is  derecognised  when  the  holder's  contractual  rights  to  its  cash  flows  expires,  or  the  asset  is 
transferred in such a way that all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred. 

All of the following criteria need to be satisfied for derecognition of financial asset: 

- 
- 

the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired or been transferred; 
all risk and rewards of ownership of the asset have been substantially transferred; and 

ADVANCED BRAKING TECHNOLOGY LTD - ANNUAL REPORT 2022

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

- 

the Company no longer controls the asset (ie the Group has no practical ability to make a unilateral decision 
to sell the asset to a third party). 

On derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortised cost, the difference between the asset's carrying amount 
and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss. 

On derecognition of a debt instrument classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income, the cumulative 
gain or loss previously accumulated in the investment revaluation reserve is reclassified to profit or loss. 

On  derecognition  of  an  investment  in  equity  which  was  elected  to  be  classified  under  fair  value  through  other 
comprehensive income, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in the investment revaluation reserve is 
not reclassified to profit or loss but is transferred to retained earnings. 

Impairment 
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on: 

- 
- 
- 
- 

financial assets that are measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income; 
contract assets (e.g. amounts due from customers under construction contracts); 
loan commitments that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss; and 
financial guarantee contracts that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. 

Loss allowance is not recognised for: 

- 
- 

financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss; or 
equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. 

Expected  credit  losses  are  the  probability-weighted  estimate  of  credit  losses  over  the  expected  life  of  a  financial 
instrument. A credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due, and all cash flows expected 
to be received, all discounted at the original effective interest rate of the financial instrument. 

The Group uses the following approach to impairment, as applicable under AASB 9: Financial Instruments: 

- 

the simplified approach 

Simplified approach 
The  simplified  approach  does  not  require  tracking  of  changes  in  credit  risk  at  every  reporting  period,  but  instead 
requires the recognition of lifetime expected credit loss at all times. This approach is applicable to: 

- 

trade receivables or contract assets that result from transactions within the scope of AASB 15: Revenue from 
Contracts with Customers and which do not contain a significant financing component 

In measuring the expected credit loss, a provision matrix for trade receivables is used taking into consideration various 
data  to  get  to  an  expected  credit  loss  (i.e.  diversity  of  customer  base,  appropriate  groupings  of  historical  loss 
experience, etc). 

Recognition of expected credit losses in financial statements 
At each reporting date, the Group recognises the movement in the loss allowance as an impairment gain or loss in the 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 

The carrying amount of financial assets measured at amortised cost includes the loss allowance relating to that asset. 

Provisions 

(i) 
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable 
that an outflow of economic benefits will result, and that outflow can be reliably measured. 

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

Earnings per share 

(j) 
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to members of the parent entity for the 
reporting  period,  after  excluding  any  costs  of  servicing  equity  (other  than  ordinary  shares  and  converting  preference  shares 
classified as ordinary shares for EPS calculation purposes), by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Company, 
adjusted for any bonus issue. 

Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the basic EPS earnings, adjusted by the after tax effect of financing costs associated with dilutive 
potential ordinary shares and the effect on revenues and expenses of conversion to ordinary shares associated with dilutive 
potential ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares adjusted for 
any bonus issue. 

Inventories 

(k) 
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, 
direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads.  Such costs are assigned to inventory on hand by the 
method most appropriate to each particular class of inventory, with the majority being valued on a weighted average basis.  Net 
realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, 
selling and distribution. 

Revenue and Other Income 

(l) 
The Group has adopted AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from 1 July 2018. 

Under AASB 15, revenues are generated by the Group through the design, development, manufacture and distribution of improved 
vehicle braking systems based on the Group’s patented technology to customers worldwide. 

For sales of products, revenue is recognised in a point in time when control of the products has transferred to the customer, which 
is usually when the products are delivered to the customers.  Volume discounts could be provided with the sale of these items 
depending on the volume of aggregate sales made to eligible customers.  Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised 
upon the delivery of the service to the customer.  A receivable will be recognised when the goods or services are delivered.  The 
Group’s right to consideration is deemed unconditional at this time as only the passage of time is required before payment of that 
consideration is due.  There is no financing component because sales are made within standard credit terms as agreed with the 
customers. All sales revenues to external customers are recognised at a point in time. 

Other Revenue 
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method. 

Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. 

(m)  Government Grants 
Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and all grant 
conditions will be met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant 
to the costs they are compensating. Grants relating to assets are credited to deferred income at fair value and are credited to 
income over the expected useful life of the asset. 

Where it is expected that a grant will be repaid if certain conditions are met, the liability to repay the grant is recognised as the 
conditions are met and the liability crystallises. 

R&D Tax incentives have been accounted for as government grants and are recognised on an accruals basis. 

Intangibles Other than Goodwill 

(n) 
Technology Assets / Patents 
Such assets are recognised at cost of acquisition. The cost of technology assets is amortised over the average life of the patents 
granted for each technology asset on a straight-line basis. The average life of a patent varies between 10 and 20 years and 
technology  assets  in  the  Intellectual  Property  purchased  from  Safe  Effect  Technologies  International  Ltd  (SETI)  was  initially 
amortised over 15 years.  The estimated useful life and amortisation method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

The amortisation rate was reassessed in prior years, based on the extended patents, which currently run through to December 
2030.  

Research and development 
Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised 
only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project is expected to deliver future economic benefits and these benefits 
can be measured reliably. 

Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis based on the future economic benefits over the useful 
life of the project. 

An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, 
all of the following are demonstrated: 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

• 

the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; 
the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; 
the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; 
how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; 
the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the 
intangible asset; and 
the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributed to the intangible asset during its development. 

Capitalised development costs will be amortised over their expected useful lives once commercial sales commence. 

(o) 

Leases 

The Group as lessee 
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses if the contract contains or is a lease. If there is a lease present, a right-
of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability are recognised by the Group where the Group is a lessee. However, all 
contracts that are classified as short-term leases (ie a lease with a remaining lease term of 12 months or less) and 
leases of low-value assets are recognised as an operating expenses on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. 

Initially the lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments still to be paid at the commencement 
date.  The  lease  payments  are  discounted  at  the  interest  rate  implicit  in  the  lease.  If  this  rate  cannot  be  readily 
determined, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate. 

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are as follows: 

– 
– 

fixed lease payments less any lease incentives; 
variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the 
commencement date; 
– 
the amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees; 
– 
the exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; 
– 
lease payments under extension options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; and 
–  payments  of  penalties  for  terminating  the  lease,  if  the  lease  term  reflects  the  exercise  of  an  option  to 

terminate the lease. 

The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, any lease payments made at or before 
the  commencement  date  and  any  initial  direct  costs.  The  subsequent  measurement  of  the  right-of-use  assets  is  at  cost  less 
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or useful life of the underlying asset, whichever is the shortest. 

Where a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group anticipates 
to exercise a purchase option, the specific asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

Property, Plant and Equipment 

(p) 
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated 
depreciation and impairment losses. 

Plant and equipment 
Plant  and  equipment  is  measured  on  the  cost  basis  and  therefore  carried  at  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation  and  any 
accumulated impairment.  In the event the carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable 
amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses are 
recognised either in profit or loss or as a revaluation decrease if the impairment losses relate to a revalued asset.  A formal 
assessment of recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present. 

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed periodically by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable 
amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received 
from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values 
in determining recoverable amounts. 

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated group includes the cost of materials and externally supplied services.   
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is 
probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured 
reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are expensed to profit and loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. 

Depreciation 
The  depreciable  amount  of  all  fixed  assets  including  buildings  and  capitalised  lease  assets,  but  excluding  freehold  land,  is 
depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is 
held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the 
estimated useful lives of the improvements. 

The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation: 
Class of Fixed Asset 
Plant and equipment 
Motor vehicles 
Office equipment and furniture 
Software 
Leasehold improvements 

2-10 years 
3-15 years 
3-8 years 
3-5 years 
5-10 years  

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. 

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its 
estimated recoverable amount.  Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. 
These gains and losses are included in profit and loss. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation surplus 
relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. 

(q) 

Employee Benefits 

Short-term employee benefits 
Provision is made for the Group’s obligation for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other 
than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in 
which  the  employees  render  the  related  service,  including  wages,  salaries  and  sick  leave.  Short-term  employee  benefits  are 
measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled. 

The Group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as a part of current 
trade and other payables in the statement of financial position. The Group’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long 
service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

Other long-term employee benefits 
Provision is made for employees’ long service leave and annual leave entitlements not expected to be settled wholly within 12 
months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. Other long-term employee 
benefits are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. Expected future payments 
incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, durations of service and employee departures and are discounted at rates 
determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have maturity dates that 
approximate the terms of the obligations. Any re-measurements for changes in assumptions of obligations for other long-term 
employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in which the changes occur. 

The Group’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as non-current provisions in its statement of financial 
position, except where the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of 
the reporting period, in which case the obligations are presented as current provisions. 

Equity-settled compensation 
The Group operates an employee share/option ownership plan. Share-based payments to employees and Directors are measured 
at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortised over the vesting periods.  Share-based payments to non-employees are 
measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair 
value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received.  The 
corresponding amount is recorded to the option reserve.  The fair value of options is determined using the Black-Scholes pricing 
model.  The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that 
the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted is based on the number of equity 
instruments that eventually vest. 

Comparative Figures 

(r) 
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the 
current financial year.  

Where the Group has retrospectively applied an accounting policy, made a retrospective restatement of items in the financial 
statements or reclassified items in its financial statements, an additional statement of financial position as at the beginning of the 
earliest comparative period will be disclosed. 

Rounding of Amounts 

(s) 
The parent entity has applied the relief available to it under ASIC Class Order 98/100 and accordingly, amounts in the financial 
statements and Directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest $1,000. 

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities 

(t) 
The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis, depending on the 
requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard. 

Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly (i.e. unforced) 
transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing market participants at the measurement date. 

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to determine fair 
value. Adjustments to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability. The fair 
values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These 
valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. 

To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or liability (i.e. the market 
with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous 
market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the 
asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs). 

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s ability to use the asset in its 
highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 

The fair value of liabilities and the entity’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based payment arrangements) 
may be valued, where there is no observable market price in relation to the transfer of such financial instrument, by reference to 
observable market information where such instruments are held as assets. Where this information is not available, other valuation 
techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective note to the financial statements. 

Critical Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Judgments 

(u)
The Directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best 
available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and 
economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group. 

Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic 
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the 
company based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, 
supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the company operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does 
not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect 
to events or conditions which may impact the Company unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the 
Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

Key Estimates – Impairment 
The  group  assesses  impairment  at  each  reporting  date  by  evaluating  conditions  specific  to  the  group  that  may  lead  to  the 
impairment of assets.  Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the assets is determined.  Fair value less cost 
to sell and value-in-use calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates. 

Key Estimates - Share based payment transactions  
The fair value of any options issued as remuneration is measured using the Black-Scholes model. Measurement inputs include 
share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on historic volatility adjusted for 
changes expected due to publicly available information, if any), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on 
historical  experience  and  general  option  holder  behaviour),  expected  dividends,  and  the  risk-free  interest  rate  (based  on 
government bonds). 

Key Estimates - Recoverability of Intangible Assets (Development Expenditure)  
The recoverability of capitalised development expenditure recognised as a non-current asset is dependent upon the successful 
commercialisation, or alternatively sale, of the respective intellectual property which comprise the assets. 

New Standards and Interpretations not yet adopted 

(v)
A number of new accounting standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are not yet effective for 30 June 2022 
reporting period and have not been early adopted in preparing these financial statements.

The directors' assessment of these new accounting standards (to the extent relevant to the Group) and interpretations is that they 
are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements of the Group. 

Going Concern Basis of Preparation 

(w)
The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis that contemplates the continuity of normal business activities 
and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. For the year ended 30 June 2022, 
the Group recorded a profit after tax of $0.644m (2021: $0.620m) and reported operating cash inflows of $0.398m (2021: inflows 
$1.212m).  At balance date and as detailed in Note 17, the Company has current borrowings of $0.191m (2021: $0.283m).

The tax benefits of the above deferred tax assets will only be obtained if: 
(a)  

 the company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefits to be 
utilised; 
 the company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and  
 no changes in income tax legislation adversely affect the company in utilising the benefits. 

(b)  
(c)   

Corporate Tax Rate: 

e. 
The corporate tax rate for eligible companies will reduce from 30% to 25% by 30 June 2022 providing certain turnover thresholds 
and other criteria are met. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are required to be measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply 
in the future income year when the asset is realised, or the liability is settled. The Directors have determined that the deferred tax 
balances be measured at the tax rates stated.

Current trade receivables 

  The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by AASB 9, which permits 
the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, trade 
receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. The loss allowance 
provision as at 30 June 2022 is determined as follows:  

- 
- 

the expected credit losses also incorporate forward-looking information. 
The amounts written off are all due to customers declaring bankruptcy, or term receivables that have now

14.  RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS 

The Group's lease portfolio currently includes buildings. The lease ran for a period of 5 years with an option 
to extend for 5 years. The extension option was reasonably certain to be exercised at the adoption of AASB 
16: Leases.  
Upon expiry of the initial 5-year term in June 2022, the Group elected to waiver the 5-year option, and to 
extend for a period of 12 months only. 
The  Group  recognises  that  the  lease  modification  is  not  accounted  for  as  a  separate  lease,  but  rather  a 
remeasurement of the lease liability, and decreased the carrying amount of the right of use asset to reflect 
the partial termination of the lease.  
The decrease in the scope of the lease is recognised as a lease modification and any gain or loss relating to the 
partial termination of the lease is recognised in the statement of profit or loss in June 2022

Impairment Disclosure 
An impairment assessment of intangibles was performed in April 2017, triggered by the impending introduction of the 
new  polymer  Terra  Durra  brake.    This  assessment  confirmed  the  carrying  amount  of  the  SIBS  (Failsafe)  Wet  Brake 
Intellectual Property and extended the amortisation period to December 2030 to coincide with the expiry date of the 
existing patents.  No impairment assessment of intangibles was performed 2022 or 2021, as there were no impairment 
triggers.

(c)  Capital Management 

Management controls the capital of the Group in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the Shareholders 
with adequate returns and ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. 

The  Group’s  debt  and  capital  includes  ordinary  share  capital  and  financial  liabilities,  supported  by  financial  assets.  
Advanced Braking Pty Ltd has a finance agreement with NAB under which it may borrow up to $500,000 secured against 
debtors. The amount which may be drawn down at any time is dependent on the debtor balance - see note 9.  

There are no externally imposed capital requirements. 

Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital 
structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market.  These responses include the management of debt 
levels, distributions to Shareholders, share issues and convertible note issues. 

Management aims to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.  The 
gearing ratios for the years ended 30 June 2022 and 30 June 2021 are as below. 

The gearing ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital.  Net debt is defined as interest bearing liabilities less 
cash and cash equivalents.  Total capital is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the statement of financial position plus net 
debt.

As the Group’s gearing ratio has dropped significantly in 2022 due to the Group’s increased equity position and low levels 
of interest-bearing liabilities, the Group’s capital risk management focus has become the management of its current 
working capital position to meet anticipated operating requirements.

Cash and cash equivalents

Overview 
The Company and its Subsidiary (“Group”) have exposure to the risks below from financial instruments: 

i)  Market risk; 
ii) 
Liquidity risk; 
iii)  Credit risk. 

The Directors have responsibility for the development and control of the risk management framework. The Audit 
Committee, established by the Directors, is responsible for development and monitoring of risk management policies. 
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash, interest bearing deposits, lease and an invoice finance facility

fluctuations where appropriate, which may result in exchange losses. 

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are market risk, including interest rate risk and foreign 
currency risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Directors review and agree policy for managing each of these risks and 
they are summarised as follows:

The Directors’ objective is to earn the highest rate of interest on deposits with minimum risk. The Directors’ policy 
therefore is to place deposits with recognised banks which offer the highest variable and/or fixed rates. Similarly, loans 
and asset finance contracts are shopped to find the lowest rates of interest expense. 

Foreign Currency Risk 
The Company currently has minimal foreign exchange exposure with regard to both the receivables and payables and 
currently has no offshore assets. 

At 30 June 2022, the Company does not have any forward foreign exchange contracts in place. As at 30 June 2022 the 
Group had the following exposure to foreign currency:

Liquidity Risk 
The  Group’s  objective  is  to  fund  new  product  development  and  commercialisation  through  Shareholder  equity, 
convertible notes, government grants, R&D tax incentives, lease finance and bank funding where available. 

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves through share issues, convertible note issues, 
debtor finance, secured bank lending and asset finance. Future funding requirements are determined through the 
monitoring of regular cash flow forecasts, which reflect management’s expectations in respect of future turnover, 
development of new markets and products, capital investment and the settlement of financial assets and liabilities.

Credit risk 
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counterparty or group of counterparties 
other than those receivables specifically provided for and mentioned within Note 9. The class of assets described as "trade 
and other receivables" is considered to be the main source of credit risk related to the Group. 

On a geographical basis, the Group has significant credit risk exposures in Australia given the substantial operations in that 
region. The Group’s exposure to credit risk for receivables at the end of the reporting period in that regions is as follows:

There has been no change in the estimation techniques used or significant assumptions made during the current 
reporting period. 
The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty 
and there is no realistic prospect of recovery; for example, when the debtor has been placed under liquidation or has 
entered into bankruptcy proceedings, or when the trade receivables are over two years past due, whichever occurs earlier. 
None of the trade receivables that have been written off are subject to enforcement activities. 

(d) 

Net fair values 
The financial assets and liabilities included in current asset and current liabilities in the Balance Sheet position are carried at 
amounts  that  approximate  net  fair  values  or  recoverable  amount.    Impairment  assessments  in  financial  year  2022 
resulted in no adjustment to the provision for obsolete inventory.

Intangible assets as at 30 June 2022 only comprises the Wet Brake technology assigned from Safe Effect Technologies 
International Ltd on 27 June 2006. The amortisation period is to December 2030, being the current life of patents, which

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
TO THE MEMBERS OF ADVANCED BRAKING TECHNOLOGY LIMITED 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Advanced Braking Technology Limited (the Company) and its 
subsidiary (the “Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 
2022, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated 
statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, 
and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the 
directors’ declaration. 

In our opinion: 

a)

the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001,
including:

giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Group’s  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2022  and  of  its 
financial performance for the year then ended; and  

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.  Our responsibilities under 
those  standards  are  further  described  in  the  Auditor’s  Responsibilities  for  the  Audit  of  the  Financial 
Report  section  of  our  report.    We  believe  that  the  audit  evidence  we  have  obtained  is  sufficient  and 
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

We  are  independent  of  the  Group  in  accordance  with  the  auditor  independence  requirements  of  the 
Corporations  Act  2001  and  the  ethical  requirements  of  the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical 
Standards  Board’s  APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for  Professional  Accountants  (including  Independence 
Standards) (the “Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia.  We have also 
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been 
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time 
of this auditor’s report. 

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report of the current year.  These matters were addressed in the context of our 
audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a 
separate opinion on these matters.

TO THE MEMBERS OF ADVANCED BRAKING TECHNOLOGY LIMITED (CONTINUED) 

Valuation of Failsafe (WET) Brake Technology 

Refer to Notes 1(n), (u) key estimates – recoverability of intangible assets & 15 Intangibles 

The  carrying  value  of  the  Group’s  Failsafe  Brake 
Technology as at 30 June 2022 was $543,397 and 
the related amortisation charge for the year ended 
30 June 2022 was $64,000. 

The  carrying  value  and  amortisation  rate  are 
reviewed annually by management with reference 
to  current  and 
trading  performance, 
relevant technological factors and other operational 
indicators.  This  involves  a  significant  amount  of 
management judgement. 

forecast 

This  is  a  key  area  of  audit  focus  because  the 
carrying value is material and the value is subject 
judgement  and 
to  significant  management 
estimates. 

Existence and Valuation of Inventories 

Refer to Note 10 Inventories 

The carrying value of inventory as at 30 June 2022 
was  $2.24  million.  Inventory  comprises  finished 
goods and components. 

Inventories are held in significant quantities and are 
valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value 
(NRV).  

A provision for obsolete and slow-moving inventory 
is raised by management, the assessment of which 
is  subject  to  significant  management  judgement. 
Obsolete and slow-moving inventory could result in 
an  overstatement  of 
the  carrying  value  of 
inventories  as  the  recorded  cost  may  be  higher 
than the net realisable value.  

Given  inventories  are  the  Group’s  single  largest 
inventory 
therefore 
asset,  we  have 
existence and valuation as a key audit matter. 

identified 

Our audit procedures included, amongst others: 

• Assessed 

the  reasonableness  of  management’s
assertions  and  estimates  regarding  estimated  useful
life of the asset with reference to its patent information
currently registered with local and foreign intellectual
property government agencies.

• Held  discussions  with  management 

the
amortisation  period  (useful  life)  at  the  end  of  the
financial  year  remained  appropriate  and  that  there
were  no  conditions  which  would  adversely  affect  the
valuation of the intangibles.

that 

• Assessment of any impairment triggers by comparing
the market capitalisation of the Company against the
carrying value of its total net assets at balance date.
The  year-end  market  capitalisation  of  $13.27  million
far exceeded the net asset value. There were no other
impairment  triggers  based  on  the  Group’s  improved
financial performance and position during the year and
its future budgeted performance.

• Tested 

the  amortisation  expense  recorded  and

ensured consistency with the accounting policy.

• Considered  whether  the  relevant  disclosures  in  the
financial statements were appropriate and adequate.

Our  procedures  to  test  the  existence  and  valuation  of 
inventories included, amongst others: 

• Testing 

the  relevant 

internal  control  procedures
relating  to  the  existence  and  valuation  of  inventory,
including  attendance  at  the  physical  inventory  count
near period-end and undertaking our own test counts.

• Testing a sample of inventory items and comparing our
count results with those of the Group's representative
and investigating any variances.

• Performing test of details on historical costs, including
final
the  mathematical  accuracy  of 

the 

testing 
inventory listing.

• Held discussions with management to understand and
corroborate  assumptions  applied  in  ensuring  slow
moving,  old  and  certain  inventory  lines  have  been
appropriately  valued  or  adequately  provided  for  or
impaired

• Testing  a  sample  of  inventory  items  to  subsequent
sales to ensure that they were recorded at the lower of
cost and net realisable value.

• Reviewing  gross  margins  for  any  unusual  patterns

compared to prior periods.

information, we are required to report that fact.  We have nothing to report in this regard.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes 
our opinion.  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted  in  accordance  with  the  Australian  Auditing  Standards  will  always  detect  a  material 
misstatement when it exists.  Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material 
if,  individually  or  in  the  aggregate,  they  could  reasonably  be  expected  to  influence  the  economic 
decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing 
and Assurance Standards Board website at:
