Review of Operations Company Overview AML3D is an Australian public company incorporated on 14 November 2014. The Company was admitted to the The Company’s revenue was derived from: a. ARCEMY ® sales with customers acquiring the ARCEMY ® 3D printing module for their own fabrication needs; and Official List of ASX on 16 April 2020 and commenced trading b. Contract manufacturing, which is fulfilling manufacturing on ASX on 20 April 2020. AML3D is a welding, robotics, metallurgy and software business which uses automated wire- fed 3D printing in a large free-form environment to produce metal components and structures for commercial use. AML3D has commercialised its wire arc additive manufacturing technology (under the trademark WAM ®), an innovative metal additive manufacturing technology for the cost-effective production of large, high performance metal components and structures. AML3D’s proprietary WAM ® process is part of the spectrum of 3D metal printing that focuses on larger industrial applications with flexibility across multiple classes of metals including titanium alloys, nickel alloys and steel alloys. AML3D’s WAM ® technology combines electric arc as a heat source with wire as a feedstock and welds sequential layers of metal to produce near-net shape metal components. WAM ® technology provides an alternative manufacturing and fabrication method for the production of components in industry sectors such orders for customers using our ARCEMY ® 3D printing module. During the year the Company delivered its first locally sold ARCEMY ® 3D printing module to Rowland Metalworks (Rowlands). The unit is now fully functional and AML3D continues to work closely with Rowlands to enhance the unit’s capabilities in line with Rowland’s customer requirements. Preparation of a highly specialised ARCEMY ® module for iKAD Engineering commenced during the second half of FY21. At year end, further work was required to complete the unit with a commissioning date expected during the first half of FY22. The ARCEMY ® module delivered to ST Engineering in June 2020 remains under a right-to-use with an option to buy arrangement. The Company continues to retain the right to utilise 50% of the module’s printing capacity to manufacture products for AML3D’s customers in the Asian region and beyond. ST Engineering has, however, confirmed their intention to exercise their right to buy the unit outright during the 2022 financial year. as aerospace, marine, defence, oil and gas, mining and general The Company has continued to develop its technology 8 AML3D Limited // ASX: AL3 // ABN 55 602 857 983including the printing of a range of metal pieces for use • Build ARCEMY ® modules for customers looking to in a variety of industries such as marine and defence. establish in-house 3D printing capability; Approximately 60% of revenue from contract manufacture • Grow recurring revenue through annual software was obtained through local customers, with the remainder licencing, service and maintenance agreements and generated through the South East Asia region. sale of wire feedstock; Throughout the year, the Company has sought out new customers and markets and developed a pipeline of opportunities which will be built on in FY22. Financial Results and Position Revenue for the year was $644,000, up 123% on the Prior Corresponding Period (PCP). Total revenue for the year, inclusive of R&D tax offset and grants, was $1.2 million. EBITDA was a loss of $5.1 million (PCP: $3.0 million). Overhead expenses of $6.0 million were $2.3 million higher on PCP with the Company continuing to invest in activities in accordance with its business plan. Director and employee benefits were up $2.1 million on PCP through the bolstering of staff headcount, and research and development up $677,000 contributing to the enhancement of existing and new technologies. Having established the Adelaide facility during the year, depreciation and amortisation was $409,000, up $323,000 on PCP. The resulting net loss after tax was $5.5 million (PCP: $3.1 million) with carried forward tax losses not brought to account. The Company raised $7,000,000 before costs on 12 October 2020 through the private placement of 15,555,557 new shares at $0.45 per share. A further $761,000 was raised during the year on the exercising of 2,536,666 options at $0.30 per share. Funds raised continue to be deployed in the implementation of the Company’s business plan and to take advantage of the opportunities that exist for additive manufacturing in Australia, South East Asia and other markets. At the end of the financial year, the Company had $7.2 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand having spent $2.0 million on plant and equipment to establish the Adelaide facility and $1.9 million on additional inventory in anticipation of future customer orders. Use of IPO funds In the period from admission to ASX on 16 April 2020 and commencement of quotation of securities on ASX on 20 April 2020 until 30 June 2021, the Company has used the cash and assets in a form readily convertible to cash that it had at the time of admission in a way consistent with the Company’s business objectives, as outlined in the prospectus dated 10 February 2020. Business Strategies and Prospects The Company plans to build on the successes achieved in FY21, summarised above in the Review of Operations. The main areas of focus in FY22 will be to: • Grow the Contract Manufacturing Centre’s operations in Singapore, as we have done in Adelaide; • Pursue global business opportunities, focusing initially on creating customer and industry partnerships in high margin sectors such as marine and defence; • Continue with our research and development activities to refine and broaden our range of products and processes, further developing our environmental sustainability credentials by reviewing options for use of renewable energy and lowering energy inputs with the aim of reducing the carbon footprint of the WAM® process; and • Build the global profile of AML3D and its products through collaborations with learning institutions and key industry players. The company will establish a Technology Advisory Group with participation from leading technical institutions, reviewing and advising on current, future trends and developments in 3D metal printing globally. AML3D currently has the only diversified large-scale WAM® metal fabrication facility in the Southern Hemisphere that can produce finished parts and components to a certified standard under an accredited Quality Management System. With the granting of Australian Patent 2019251514, this protection validates the Company’s market leadership in advanced 3D printing solutions and opens up new markets for our technology. These are the advantage that the Company will look to leverage. The achievement of our strategies and prospects may be impacted by the COVID19 pandemic, the effects of which cannot be foreseen. Material Business Risks There are a number of material business risks which could affect the Company’s ability to achieve its business strategies as follows. Market Acceptance of New Technology AML3D has commercialised its WAM ® technology and has established a number of important relationships and research collaborations. However, there can be no assurances that the market will accept the WAM ® technology, given that it is challenging traditional and well-tried technologies such as machining, casting and forging. WAM ® is a disruptive technology in traditional manufacturing industries where many potential users of WAM ® have sunk investment in existing technologies. Wire arc additive manufacturing is a new technology in a relatively young industry of 3D metal printing. Widespread awareness- raising of the advantages and value proposition associated with the Company’s WAM ® technology will be required to lift the profile of the technology and educate the market. 9 AML3D Limited // ASX: AL3 // ABN 55 602 857 983undertake physical product inspections.

General Information c. Taxation i. Income Tax The income tax expense/(income) of the year comprises current income tax expense/(income) and deferred tax AML3D Limited (AML3D or the Company) is a limited liability company expense/(income). incorporated in Australia, whose shares are listed on the ASX.

Unless otherwise year as well as unused tax losses. stated, these policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented. 2. Statement of Significant Accounting Policies a. Basis of Preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The accounting or taxable profit and loss. Company is a for profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. The consolidated financial statements of AML3D comply with International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis, except for cashflow information and are based on historical costs, except for the circumstances 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, based on tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments where the fair value method has been applied as detailed in in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, these accounting policies. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Comparatives are consistent with prior years, unless otherwise stated. b. Principles of Consolidation As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the 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. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future tax amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of offset exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the consolidated financial statements as well as their results for respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of (left) the Consolidated Group during the year, their operating set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to results have been included (excluded) from the date control income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either was obtained (ceased). i.

A list of subsidiaries is provided in Note 5. 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 ii. Transactions eliminated on consolidation or settled. All intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised ii. Goods and Services Tax (GST) income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred 31 AML3D Limited // ASX: AL3 // ABN 55 602 857 983is not recoverable from the taxation authority.

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. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not more than the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed based on the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have not been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. Where parts of an item of plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of plant and equipment. ii. Subsequent Costs The cost of replacing part of an item of plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of plant and equipment and are recognised net within “other income” in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. e. Impairment of Non-Financial Assets The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets (see accounting policy 2(c)) are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that largely are independent from other assets and asset groups. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, unless the asset has previously been revalued, in which case the impairment loss is recognised as a reversal to the extent of that previous revaluation with any excess recognised through the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated to the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is the greater of its fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash flows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. reliably. Any costs of the day-to-day servicing of plant and Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at equipment are recognised in the Statement of Profit or each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as an expense as or no longer exists.

An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. f. Financial Instruments Depreciation rates and methods are reviewed annually for i. Initial Recognition and Measurement appropriateness. The straight-line depreciation rates used Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised for the current period are as follows: when the entity becomes a party to the contractual 32 AML3D Limited // ASX: AL3 // ABN 55 602 857 983provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred equivalent to the date that the entity commits itself to either or liabilities assumed, is recognised in the Statement of Profit the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting or Loss, and other comprehensive income. is adopted). Financial instruments 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 Other Financial Assets A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at amortised cost: transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. • The financial asset is managed solely to collect Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used contractual cash flows; and to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. 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. ii. Classification and Subsequent Measurement Financial Liabilities 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 rate method. • 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. 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; and • 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 The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating measured at fair value through profit or loss. 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 discounts the estimated future cash flows through the expected life of the instrument to the net carrying amount at initial recognition. Any gains or losses arising on changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss to the extent they are not part of a designated hedging relationship are 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 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. 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. 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. Cash and Cash Equivalents For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, derecognition of the financial liability. If taking the change deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly in credit risk in other comprehensive income enlarges liquid investments with original maturities of three months or or creates an accounting mismatch, then these gains or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, if any, are shown losses should be taken to profit or loss rather than other within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the comprehensive income. Statement of financial position. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished (i.e. Trade and Other Receivables when the obligation in the contact 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 new Receivables are usually settled within 60 days. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets. financial liability.

Finance Income and Expenses impairment. Collectability of trade and other receivables are reviewed on an ongoing basis. An impairment loss is recognised for debts which are known to be uncollectable. An impairment provision is raised for any doubtful amounts. Trade and Other Payables These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid and stated at their amortised cost. The amounts are unsecured and are generally settled on 30 day terms. iii. Impairment of Financial Assets Impairment of financial assets is recognised on an expected credit loss (ECL) basis for the following assets: • Financial assets measured at amortised cost • Debt investments measured at FVOCI When determining whether the credit risk of a financial Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested, gains on the disposal of financial assets and changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method. g. Employee Benefits i. Short-term Employee Benefits Provision for employee benefits for wages, salaries, annual leave and long service leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date represent obligations resulting from the employee’s services provided to the reporting date and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group expects to pay at the reporting date including related payroll on-costs, such as worker’s compensation insurance and payroll tax. asset has increased significantly since initial recognition ii. Other Long-Term Employee Benefits and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward looking information. The Group uses the presumption that an asset which is more than 30 days past due has seen a significant increase in credit risk. The Group’s obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods plus related on-costs; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The discount rate applied is determined by reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations. iii. Retirement benefit Obligations: Defined contribution superannuation funds The Group uses the presumption that a financial asset is in A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit default when: • The other party is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse to the Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held); or • The financial asset is more than 90 days past due. Impairment of trade receivables is determined using the simplified approach in AASB 9 which uses an estimation of lifetime expected losses. For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account is used to reduce the carrying amount of financial assets impaired by credit losses. After having taken all possible measures of recovery, if management establishes that the carrying amount cannot be recovered by any means, at that plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution superannuation funds are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as incurred. iv. Equity-settled Compensation The Group operates an employee share option plan. The fair value of options granted is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and spread over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. The fair value of the options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes pricing model, considering the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The amount recognised is adjusted to reflect the actual number of share options that vest except where forfeiture is only due to market point the written-off amounts are charged to the allowance conditions not being met. account or the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced directly if no impairment amount was previously h.

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 Revenue is recognised by applying a five-step process outlined in ASSB 15 which is as follows: Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer; Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract and determine at what point they are satisfied; are recognised by the Group where the Group is a Step 3: Determine the transaction price; lessee. However, all contracts that are classified as short term leases (i.e. a lease with a remaining lease term of 12-months or less) and leases of low value assets are recognised as an operating expense 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 Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; Step 5: Recognise revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. Following the adoption of AASB 15 the Group’s revenue recognition accounting policy is that: date. The lease payments are discounted at the interest rate The Group derives revenue from the sale of 3D printed implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, metal structures and the sale or right to use of 3D metal the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate. printing machines. Revenue from the sale of manufactured Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are as follows: • Fixed lease payments less any lease incentives; metal structures and sale of 3D metal printing machines is recognised upon delivery to the customer. Revenue from right to use 3D metal printing machines is recognised once performance milestones in the contract are satisfied. • Variable lease payments that depend on an index or Broadly, these milestones relate to the delivery of software, rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date; training and the machine itself. The customer has the option to make a further payment in order to take ownership of • 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; the machine. ii. Grant Revenue Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and • Lease payments under extension options, if the all grant conditions will be met. Grants relating to expense lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the items are recognised as income over the periods necessary 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 are recognised at an amount equal to the lease liability at the initial date of application, adjusted for previously recognised prepaid or accrued lease payments. The subsequent measurement of the right of use asset is at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 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 on a straight-line basis. All revenue is stated net of the amount of GST. k. Segment Reporting An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers The core principle of AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers is that revenue is recognised on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised goods or service to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. at each balance date and adjusted if appropriate. Amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from one to five years. ii. Software and Website Development Costs Costs incurred in acquiring software and licences that will contribute to future period financial benefits through revenue generation and or cost reduction are capitalised. Amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from one to three years. 35 AML3D Limited // ASX: AL3 // ABN 55 602 857 983m. Foreign Currency Translation reference to the fair value of the equity instruments i. Functional and Presentation Currency Items included in the financial statement of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is AML3D’s functional and presentation currency. ii. Transactions and Balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the granted. This fair value is appraised at the grant date and excludes the impact of non-market vesting conditions (for example profitability and earnings per share growth targets and performance conditions). q.

Accordingly, amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off to the nearest $1,000. functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at 3. Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognised in the income statement or deferred in equity if the gain or loss relates to a qualifying cash flow hedge. iii. Foreign Operations The results and financial position of all the foreign operations that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: a. Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet; b. Income and expenses for each income The Group makes estimates and assumptions in preparing the financial statements. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. This note provides an overview of the areas that involve a higher degree of judgement or complexity and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions differing to actual outcomes. The areas involving significant estimates and assumptions are: i. Key Estimate – R&D Tax Incentive Where the Group expects to receive the Australian Government’s Research and Development Tax Incentive, the Group accounts for the amount refundable on an accruals basis. In determining the amount of the R&D Tax Offset Incentive at year end, there is an estimation process to determine what expenditure will qualify for the incentive. External advice is sought to provide assurance that the statement and statement of comprehensive estimates are reasonable. income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and c. All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. n. Inventory Inventories consists of finished goods, work in progress and raw materials which are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. ii. Key Estimate – Lease Term The lease term is defined as the non-cancellable period of a lease together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and also periods covered by an option to terminate the lease where the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. The decision on whether or not the options to extend are reasonably going to be exercised is a key management judgement that the entity will make. The Group determines the likelihood to exercise on a lease-by-lease basis looking at various factors such as which assets are strategic and which are key to the future strategy of the entity. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure. iii. Key Estimate – Share-based Payments o. Earnings per Share Both the basic and diluted earnings per share have been calculated using the loss attributable to shareholders of the parent company as the numerator, i.e. no adjustments to loss were necessary in respect of the reported figures, which is divided by the weighted average number or ordinary shares outstanding during the year. p. Share-based Payments All goods and services received in exchange for the grant of any share-based payment are measured at their fair values. Where employees are rewarded using share-based payments, the fair values of employees’ services are determined indirectly by 36 The Group operates equity-settled share-based payment and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which option holders become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using the Black-Scholes pricing model, which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options or shares granted. This expense takes in account any market performance conditions and the impact of any non-vesting conditions but ignores the effect of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions. AML3D Limited // ASX: AL3 // ABN 55 602 857 983Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account when 6. Revenue considering the number of options expected to vest. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of options which are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. Revisions to prior period estimate are recognised in profit or loss and equity. Any changes to the estimation are adjusted in the subsequent financial year. Fair value of options issued for services from suppliers is determined with reference to the supplier’s invoice value.

Management exercises judgement to determine whether the promise is sufficiently specific by taking into account any conditions specified in the arrangement, explicit or implicit, regarding the promised goods and services. In making this assessment, management includes the nature/type, cost/value, quantity and the period of transfer related to the goods or services promised. 4.

Financial Risk Management The Group enters into financial instruments which consist of deposits with banks, accounts receivable and payables. The totals for each category of financial instrument is shown in this Note. The Group has not entered into any derivative financial instruments. b. Significant Accounting Policies Details of significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements. c. Interest Rate Risk Management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as it places funds at floating interest rates. In the current low interest environment, the Group is exposed to minimal interest rate risk. d. Credit Risk Management Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of dealing only with creditworthy counterparties (where such information is available) and obtaining sufficient collateral (such as up front deposits before commencing work), as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group’s exposure is constantly monitored. Except for one customer, the Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any one single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. Sales to that customer are denominated in Singapore dollars and the Group has not hedged the receivable. The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The quality of debtors is monitored by the ageing of open invoices in accounts receivable. Trade receivables are analysed as follows: Not impaired - Within trade terms - Past due but not impaired Impaired - Past due and impaired Total trade receivables 2021 $’000 2020 $’000 80 - 26 106 131 31 - 162 Receivables that are past due but not impaired comprise customers which do not have any objective evidence that the receivable may be impaired. The Company knows why certain customers are past due and expects that they will be paid. 47 AML3D Limited // ASX: AL3 // ABN 55 602 857 983e. Liquidity Risk Management Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group may encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and monitoring its actual and forecast cashflows and financial obligations. The Group endeavours to pay its creditors within agreed trade terms.
