SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of accounting The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Interpretations, other authoritative including Australian Accounting Australian Accounting Standards, announcements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001 as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs modified, where applicable, by the measurement of fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. The amounts presented in the financial statements have been rounded to the nearest dollar. Accounting Standards and Interpretations (i) Changes in accounting policy and disclosures The Group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. (ii) Accounting standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2016 are outlined in the table below. Standard Mandatory date for annual reporting periods beginning on or after) Reporting period standard adopted by the company AASB 9 Financial Instruments and related standards AASB 2014-4 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and AASB 2014-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards from AASB 15 AASB 2014-9 Equity method in separate financial statements AASB 2015-1 Annual improvements 2012-2014 cycle AASB 2015-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 101 AASB 2015-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards AASB 16 Leases 1 January 2018 1 January 2016 1 January 2018 1 January 2016 1 January 2016 1 January 2016 1 January 2016 1 January 2019 1 July 2018 1 July 2016 1 July 2018 1 July 2016 1 July 2016 1 July 2016 1 July 2016 1 July 2018 11 Notes to the financial statements CANN GROUP LIMITED ABN 25 603 949 739 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Basis of accounting (continued) Management have assessed that these new standards will not materially impact these financial statements. (b) Principles of Consolidation These consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the company and its controlled entities throughout reporting period. Controlled entities refers to entities over which the group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of the potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the group controls another entity. The financial statements of the controlled entities used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are prepared for the same reporting date as the company. Consistent accounting policies are applied to like transactions and events in similar circumstances. All intra-group balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends are eliminated in full. Income Tax (c) The income tax expense (income) for the period 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 therefore 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 as unused tax losses. 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. (d) Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed and is stated net of goods and services tax or value-added tax charges. Revenue from credits received from the ATO for research and development activities is recognised when it can be reliably measured and the probability of meeting the criteria for receipt of these credits is probable. Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised at the point of delivery of those services as they are earned under contractual agreement. 12 Notes to the financial statements CANN GROUP LIMITED ABN 25 603 949 739 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (e) Cash and cash equivalents Cash in the Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and in hand. For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. (f) Goods and Services Tax (GST) 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. (g) Trade and other payables Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. (h) Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business. 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. Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. (i) Financial Instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the group commits itself to either purchase or sell the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted). Classification and subsequent measurement Financial instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, or cost. Impairment At each reporting date, the group’s directors assess whether there is objective evidence that the financial instrument has been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss. 13 Notes to the financial statements CANN GROUP LIMITED ABN 25 603 949 739 2. (j) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Plant and Equipment Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually 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 plant and equipment constructed within the Group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. Depreciation The depreciable amount of all plant and equipment is depreciated on a diminishing value basis over the asset’s useful life to the group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. As at 30 June 2016, the Group’s asset classes had effective useful lives as follows: Asset Class Grow Room facilities and infrastructure Computer, network and security equipment Tools and workshop equipment Leasehold improvements Office furniture and equipment Useful Life (years) 7 1 to 3 1 to 2 2 1 to 3 The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income. (k) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the group’s directors review the carrying values of the group’s tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less cost to sell and value in use, is compared to the assets carrying value. Any excess of the assets carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement. 14 Notes to the financial statements CANN GROUP LIMITED ABN 25 603 949 739 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (l) Share Based Payments The Company reflects in its comprehensive income (or loss) and its financial position the effects of share-based payment transactions, including expenses associated with transactions in which shares are granted to related parties, key management personnel and employees. For share-based payments received by employees and key management personnel of the group, fair value is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted at their grant date, being the date that both the recipient and the Company have a shared understanding of the terms and conditions connected to the share-based payment. Any market-based vesting conditions are incorporated into the valuation of the share-based payment arrangement as at the grant date of the share-based payment. Share-based payments with non-market based performance conditions vest according to the pro-rata achievement of those conditions. Share-based payments with market-based performance conditions are valued using a binomial model which incorporates from both the performance rights arrangement and market data that existed at grant date. (m) Research and Development Tax Incentive The Group does not recognise benefits from the research and development tax incentive as an asset as receipt of incentive payments is not regarded as probable. The Directors believe the probable is when the tax incentive is receipted in cash and also that it is reflected as income in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. (n) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements The Directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the entity. Key Judgement – determination of probability of achieving milestones for vesting of Performance Rights In determining the probability of the Group achieving each of the respective milestones for the Class B Performance Rights, which would permit vesting of the Performance Rights, the Directors took into account all developments of the Group since the granting of the Performance Rights including operational, business and legal progress to 30 June 2016 and progress towards an Initial Public Offering scheduled for the first half of the 2017 Financial Year. It was determined as at 30 June 2016 that the Group had a seventy-five percent (75%) likelihood of achieving the milestone that would result in the vesting of the Class B Performance Rights. This percentage was applied to the fair value of each class of the Class B Performance Rights at grant date thereby resulting in the valuation of each class of Performance Rights as at 30 June 2016. The milestones for vesting of the Performance Rights are contained in Note 13 – Performance Rights. 15 Notes to the financial statements CANN GROUP LIMITED ABN 25 603 949 739 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (n) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments (continued) Key Judgement – non-recognition of carry-forward tax losses The balance of future income tax benefit arising from current year tax losses and timing differences has not been recognised as an asset because recovery is not regarded as probable. The future income tax benefit, which has not been recognised as an asset, will only be obtained if: (i) the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised; (ii) the Company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and (iii) no changes in tax legislation adversely affecting the Company realising the benefit. Refer Note 4: Income Tax Expense. Key Judgement – non-recognition of research and development tax incentive benefits The balance of research and development tax incentive arising from operations of the Company has not been recognised as an asset because receipt as at this stage as it cannot be reliably calculated. The research and development tax incentive, which has not been recognised as an asset, will only be obtained if: (i) the Company’s activities fulfil the eligibility criteria of the research and development tax initiative and it is successful in registering for the research and development tax initiative; (ii) the Company continues to comply with the conditions for registration of the research and development tax initiative imposed by law; and (iii) no changes in tax legislation adversely affecting the Company realising the tax incentive from research and development.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The consolidated group’s financial instruments consist of deposits with banks and its accounts payable and receivable. The Board is responsible for managing the Group’s only significant financial risk, which is its liquidity risk, which it does through regularly reviewing rolling cash flow forecasts and examining its levels of available working capital against such forecasts. For further details concerning this, refer to Note 2(a). Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group may encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations for its financial liabilities, which at 30 June 2016 were accounts payable with due terms from 0 – 45 days. For details of these refer to Note 9. The Directors have assessed that the fair values of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities reasonably approximate their carrying values, as represented in these financial statements. 26 Notes to the financial statements CANN GROUP LIMITED ABN 25 603 949 739 20. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The Board of Directors are charged with determining the optimal mix of debt and equity which is suitable for the needs of the Group. For the year ended 30 June 2016 the Group held no material commercial borrowings or facilities for credit as the board considered that, at this point of time, that funds sourced through equity would be most appropriate. The Company does have a corporate credit card facility however any accumulated debt is fully repaid on a monthly basis.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 2, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Independence In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
