Chairman & 
Chairman &  
CEO’s Report

On behalf of the 
Board of Directors  
of Funtastic Limited 
we present to you  
our 2015 Annual 
Report.

The Period in Review
The twelve months ended 31 July  
2015 was a particularly tough year 
transforming the business following the 
disposal of the Madman Entertainment 
group of companies at the end of the 
previous financial year.

The Board was expecting a return  
to profit in the current financial year 
however the challenges were far 
greater than expected and the time  
to implement changes was 
underestimated. These included:
yy Re-alignment of the back office 

infrastructure as a result of the sale 
of the Madman Entertainment 
group of companies.

yy Impact of the decline of the 

Australian dollar on the margins  
of our domestic business.

yy The high level of inventory in the 

trade and distributors. 

yy The continued high cost of doing 
business with Australian retailers.

yy Limited depth of product range 

limiting growth.

yy Timing to fully implement our own 
distribution model in the US.

At the end of the first half of the year 
the company re-assessed the carrying 
value of the group using a value-in-use 
methodology which resulted in an 
impairment charge of $11,120,000. 
Due to the current losses, tax  
benefits previously brought to account 
were required to be reversed. The 
company currently has tax losses of 
approximately $73,791,000 of which 
$7,257,000 has been recognised, with 
a deferred tax asset of $2,177,000 
carried on the balance sheet. No 
further impairment and tax adjustments 
were considered necessary at the end 
of the financial year.

Despite the losses incurred there has  
been a number of achievements during  
the financial year which has seen 
a considerable improvement in the 
second half of the year with a sound 
foundation to return to profit in FY16.

Outlook
The company is significantly more 
stable than the previous financial 
period, with enhanced internal 
controls, sound cash management 
principles, reduction in excess 
inventories and appropriate short 
term financing. The first quarter  
has started positively and the Board  
is confident that the company will  
be profitable for the full 2016  
financial year. 

The company has re-defined its  
core business and rightsized the 
organisation for the future with  
the appropriate focus on the  
right products and markets. The 
organisation has gone through some 
structural changes appointing key 
people in positions aligned to  

4

the company’s long term strategy.  
This resulted in increased employee 
engagement with sound commitment 
and capabilities supported by 
appropriate incentive programs.

Key operational issues have been 
addressed, resulting in improved sales 
and marketing, continued innovation, 
proper price structuring, and cost 
reductions in the right parts of the 
business supported by improved 
information and control systems.

The National Australian Bank has been 
extremely supportive and understand 
the magnitude of the changes that were 
required to support the turnaround 
strategy. The bank facilities have been 
restructured, enabling the business  
to operate in an efficient and  
effective manner.

The company has a strong line-up of 
new and innovative products enabling 
the company to effectively leverage  
its cost base. Trade and distributor 
inventory are at normal levels that will 
ensure a more solid performance.

The Directors would like to thank all  
of our staff, shareholders, bankers, 
suppliers, key agency partners and 
customers for their ongoing loyalty 
and support.

Funtastic Annual Report 2015Corporate Governance Statement

The Corporate Governance principles that guide the operations of Funtastic Limited (“Funtastic” or “Company”) are detailed in this 
statement. Funtastic respects and endorses the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Principles and Recommendations. The Board 
believes that it has been compliant with the spirit of the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s principles and recommendations 
throughout the 2015 financial year.

The ASX principles that have been adopted are outlined below. Where an alternative approach has been adopted, this is outlined within 
the relevant section. All these practices unless otherwise stated, were in place for the entire year.

Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight
Role and Responsibility of the Board
The Board of Directors is elected by the shareholders to represent the interests of all shareholders, collectively, and in this regard, 
its primary purpose is to safeguard the financial security of Funtastic.

Although responsibility for the operation of the Funtastic business is delegated to management, the Board remains responsible for, 
amongst other things:
yy establishing, monitoring and modifying Funtastic’s corporate strategies;
yy ensuring best practice corporate governance;
yy appointing the Chief Executive Officer and approving succession plans;
yy monitoring the performance of Funtastic’s management;
yy ensuring that appropriate risk management systems, internal control and reporting systems and compliance frameworks are in place 

and are operating effectively;
yy monitoring financial results;
yy ensuring that business is conducted ethically and transparently;
yy approving decisions concerning Funtastic’s capital, including capital restructures and dividend policy; and
yy ensuring effective external disclosure policies so that the market is fully informed on all matters that may influence the share price.

Board members have complete and open access to management. 

The Company has a written agreement with each Director and Senior Executive setting out the terms of their agreement.

The Company Secretary provides advice and support to the Board and is responsible for the Company’s day to day governance 
framework.

The Chairman on behalf of the Board undertakes a review of the Managing Director’s performance at least on an annual basis. 
Objectives are set and aligned to the overall business goals and the Company’s requirement of the position.

The performance of senior management is evaluated by the Managing Director through formal performance reviews undertaken on an 
annual basis. The individual performance of each Senior Executive is reviewed against goals set in the previous year and new objectives are 
established for the following financial year.

Diversity
Funtastic is an equal opportunity employer and makes its recruitment decisions based on the best person for the role with no 
discrimination on the grounds of gender or any other factor. The company is committed to being a business which is an appealing and 
rewarding place to work for men and women.

Funtastic has established a Diversity Policy which is published on the company’s website. As at 31 July 2015 the group’s mix of employees 
was as follows:

Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight continued
Diversity continued
Funtastic has elected not to establish targets with regard to gender mix within its workforce on the grounds that, as a small business such 
targets could place unreasonable restrictions on the company’s ability to operate effectively.

Director competencies
The Board plans annual self-assessments of its collective performance, and its subcommittees. This exercise takes into consideration the 
collective Directors’ competency, skills, experience and expertise. Where necessary, Funtastic will provide the required resources to assist 
Directors in improving their performance.

New Directors are provided with a letter of appointment setting out the Company’s expectations, their responsibilities, rights and the 
terms and conditions of their appointment. All new Directors participate in an induction program which covers the operation of the Board 
and its committees and financial, strategic, operations and risk management issues.

Principle 2: Structure of the board to add value
Nomination Committee
The current members of the Nomination Committee are Mr Shane Tanner (Chairman), Ms Linda Norquay and Mr Stephen Heath.

The role of the Nomination Committee is to assist the Board in ensuring that the Board is comprised of individuals who are best able to 
discharge the responsibilities of a Director, having regard to the law and the highest standards of governance, by:
yy assessing the skills, knowledge, experience and diversity required on the Board and the extent to which they are represented;
yy establishing processes for the identification of suitable candidates for appointment to the Board; and
yy overseeing succession planning for the Board.

The principal purposes of the Committee are to:
yy establish a formal and transparent procedure for the selection and appointment of new Directors to the Board;
yy regularly review the succession plans in place for membership of the Board to ensure that an appropriate balance of skills, experience 

and expertise is maintained;

yy review the time commitment required from a Non-executive Director and whether Non-executive Directors are meeting this 

requirement; and

yy take all reasonable steps to ensure that all individuals nominated for appointment to the Board as a Non-executive Director, expressly 

acknowledge prior to their election that they are able to fulfil the responsibilities and duties expected of them.

The committee seeks advice and guidance, as appropriate, from external experts.

Board Membership
The members of the Board and details regarding their appointment, removal, term of office, attendance at Board meetings and other 
committee meetings, skills and experience are detailed in the Directors’ Report. The Board composition is determined using the following 
principles:
yy the Board should comprise between 3 and 9 Directors;
yy the maximum age for Directors is 72;
yy the Board should comprise Directors with a broad range of skills and experience; and
yy the term of any appointment is subject to continuing shareholder approval.

The Directors believe that limits on tenure may cause loss of experience and expertise that are important contributors to the efficient 
working of the Board. As a consequence, the Board does not support arbitrary limits on tenure and regards nominations for re-election as 
not being automatic but based on the needs of Funtastic. The constitution sets out the rules to which Funtastic must adhere to and which 
include rules as to the nomination, appointment and re-election of Directors. The constitution provides for two of the Directors to retire 
and stand for re-election each year at the Annual General Meeting. Directors appointed during the year by the Board stand for re-election 
at the next Annual General Meeting.

At the commencement of the financial year, the Board comprised of four Non-executive Directors and two Executive Directors (the Chief 
Executive Officer and the Chief Finance Officer/Chief Operating Officer). This was reduced to three Non-executive Directors following 
the resignation of Mr Craig Mathieson during the financial year. The details of each Director’s qualifications, experience and skills are set 
out on pages 15 and 16 of the Annual Report.

Funtastic Annual Report 2015Corporate Governance Statement
continued

Principle 2: Structure of the board to add value continued
Board and Director Independence
The Board has assessed the criteria for independence as outlined in the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s best practice 
recommendation 2.1. Independent Directors of Funtastic are those not involved in the day to day management of the company and are 
free from any real or reasonably perceived business or other relationship that could materially interfere with the exercise of their 
unfettered and independent judgement. 

Currently, three of the five Directors are considered to be independent. It is the Board’s view that Mr Shane Tanner, Ms Linda Norquay 
and Mr Stephen Heath are independent Directors. 

Mr Nir Pizmony and Mr Grant Mackenzie are Executive Directors and are deemed not to be independent Directors.

Regardless of whether Directors are defined as independent, all Directors are expected to bring independent views and judgement to 
Board deliberations. 

The Board strongly believes that the degree of commitment, depth of experience and independence of thought present in the current 
structure is appropriate and will best serve the company and all its shareholders at this stage of its development. The Board periodically 
assesses the independence of each Director.

Funtastic operates in an entrepreneurial environment and requires, and benefits from, the passionate involvement of Directors who have 
been either instrumental in the business, and or who have specialised knowledge of, and expertise in, this business sector. 

The chairman of the Board is a Non-executive Director and is elected by the Board. The chairman is responsible for the management 
of the affairs of the Board and represents the Board in periods between Board meetings.

Work of Directors
Materials for Board meetings are circulated in advance. The agenda is formulated with input from the Chief Executive Officer and the 
Chairman. Directors are free to nominate matters for inclusion on the agenda for any Board or Board committee meeting.

The Board is provided with reports from management on the financial performance of the business. The reports include details of all key 
financial results reported against budgets approved by the Board, with regular updates on forecasts for the year. The Chief Executive 
Officer and Chief Financial Officer attest to the integrity of the financial reports provided to the Board each meeting. Similarly, the written 
statement provided to the Board, in relation to Funtastic’s full year accounts states that Funtastic’s financial reports present a true and fair 
view, in all material respects. Further, it confirms that Funtastic’s financial condition and operational results are in accordance with relevant 
accounting standards.

Non-executive Directors spend approximately thirty days each year on Board business and activities including Board and committee 
meetings, visits to operations and meeting employees, customers, business associates and other stakeholders.

The Chairman regularly meets with the Chief Executive Officer to review key issues and performance trends affecting the business 
of Funtastic.

Conflict of Interest
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Funtastic’s Constitution, Directors must keep the Board advised on an ongoing basis, of 
any interest that could potentially conflict with those of Funtastic. Where the Board believes that a significant conflict exists, the Director 
concerned does not receive the relevant Board papers and is not present at the meeting while the item is being considered.

Independent Professional Advice
Each Director has the right to seek independent professional advice at the expense of Funtastic. Prior written approval of the chairman 
is required, which will not be unreasonably withheld. All Directors are made aware of the professional advice sought and obtained.

Principle 3: Act ethically and responsibly
Ethical Standards
All Directors, officers and employees are expected to perform their duties professionally and act with the utmost integrity and objectivity, 
striving at all times to enhance the reputation and performance of Funtastic and its brands. The Board oversees the identification and 
implementation of procedures and development of policies in respect of the maintenance of appropriate ethical standards. Funtastic has 
a Code of Conduct, which sets out the standards as to how Directors and employees of Funtastic are expected to act. Employees are 
required to read the updated Employee Code of Conduct in the performance of their duties and to sign an acknowledgement stating 
that they have read and understood this document.

10

Principle 3: Act ethically and responsibly continued
Ethical Compliance
Funtastic uses its best endeavours through contract negotiations to ensure that all its products are manufactured in accordance with local 
and internationally accepted labour, environmental and employment laws. Funtastic is working to ensure that manufacturing occurs under 
working conditions that meet legal standards and without the use of child, forced or prison labour.

Dealings in Funtastic shares by Directors, Officers and Employees
The Board permits Directors to acquire shares in Funtastic. It is recommended that all employees do not buy or sell shares in the company 
at any time they are aware of any material price sensitive information that has not been made public, and are reminded of the laws against 
“insider trading”. 

Certain “Designated Officers”, including all Directors and Senior Executives, are also prohibited from trading during certain “blackout” 
periods. These blackout periods are:

(a)  From the close of the accounts (on 31 January each year) to 2 business days after the publication to the ASX of the half-year financial 
results; i.e. the Appendix 4D (a 2-business day blackout period would apply from the publication to the ASX of the final half-year 
financial report in the event that they were materially different from the Appendix 4D results);

(b)  From the close of the accounts (on 31 July each year) to 2 business days after the publication to the ASX of the full-year financial 
results; i.e. the Appendix 4E (a 2-business day blackout period would apply from the publication to the ASX of the final full-year 
financial report in the event that they were materially different from the Appendix 4E results); and

(c)  Forty eight hours after the public release of any market guidance update.

Exceptions to this prohibition can be approved by the Chairman (for other Directors) or the Company Secretary (for all other employees) 
in circumstances of financial hardship. Prohibitions also apply to financial instruments related to Funtastic shares and to trading in the 
shares of other entities using information obtained through employment with Funtastic.

In accordance with provisions of the Corporations Act 2001 and the Listing Rules of the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX), Directors or their 
related entities advise the ASX of any transaction conducted by them in buying or selling any shares in Funtastic.

Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in corporate reporting
Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee
Funtastic has noted the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s best practice recommendation that listed companies have an independent 
Director as Chairman of the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee. This Committee is comprised of three Non-executive Directors. 
Ms Linda Norquay is the chairman of the committee, following the resignation of Mr Craig Mathieson. The Board considers that three 
independent Directors on the committee are sufficient for the independence of the committee.

Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee Charter and Responsibilities
The Committee’s key responsibilities and functions are to:
yy monitor the company’s relationship with the external auditor (including the rotation of external auditor personnel on a regular basis) 

and the external audit function generally;

yy oversee the adequacy of internal control systems in relation to the preparation of financial statements and reports; and
yy oversee the process of identification and management of business, financial and commercial risks.

Meetings of the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee
The Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee may have in attendance or by invitation such members of management or others as it may 
deem necessary to provide appropriate information or explanations.

The Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee meet at least three times per year and more frequently if required. The External Auditor 
attends Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee meetings when requested by the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee Chairman.

Reporting by the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee
The Chairman of the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee ordinarily reports to the full Board after committee meetings. The Audit, 
Risk and Compliance Committee reports matters regarding its role and responsibilities, including:
yy the system of internal control, which management has established to safeguard the company’s assets;
yy processes are in place such that accounting records are properly maintained in accordance with statutory requirements; and
yy processes exist to reasonably guarantee that financial information provided to investors and the Board is reliable and free of 

material misstatement.

Non-audit services
Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor are outlined in Note 37 
to the financial statements. The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services, during the year, by the auditor (or by 
another person or firm on the auditor’s behalf) is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the 
Corporations Act 2001.

The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in Note 37 to the financial statements do not compromise the external 
auditor’s independence, based on advice received from the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee, for the following reasons:
yy all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and
yy none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in Code of Conduct APES 110 Code 
of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing 
the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as advocate for the Company or 
jointly sharing economic risks and rewards. 

A copy of the Auditor’s Independence Declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 33 
of this annual report.

The Remuneration and Evaluation Committee makes specific recommendations to the Board on compensation packages and other terms 
of employment for Directors and other Senior Executives. The Board then considers these recommendations and makes appropriate 
determinations, with compensation packages set at a level that is intended to attract and retain Executives capable of managing the 
consolidated entity’s diverse operations.

Compensation of the Senior Executives is reviewed on an annual basis by the Remuneration and Evaluation Committee having regard to 
personal and corporate performance and relevant comparative information. Compensation for Senior Executives comprises both fixed 
compensation and an “at risk” component. The “at risk” component comprises a short term incentive payment based on a combination 
of the company’s results and individual performance levels, and a long term incentive component pursuant to the Employee Share 
Loan Scheme.

The payment of short-term incentives is dependent on the achievement of operating and financial targets set at the beginning of each year 
and assessed on an annual basis by the Board.

Compensation and other terms of employment for Senior Executives are formalised in service agreements.

The Group’s Executive remuneration is directly related to the performance of the Group through the linking of short and long term 
incentives to certain financial performance measures. These performance measures, as described below, are selected by the Board 
of Directors and considered relevant to the management of the diverse operations of the Group and to effectively align the long-term 
interests of the Directors, Executives and shareholders. The performance conditions are assessed periodically by the Remuneration 
and Evaluation Committee to ensure they remain relevant.

for the Company’s incentive plans for Executives. Other measures include revenue growth, return on average funds employed, net 
operating cash flow, total shareholder return and other business objectives.

Components of Compensation
Fixed Compensation

The terms of employment for all Executive management contains a fixed compensation component, which is expressed in local currency. 
This fixed component is set in accordance with the market rate for a comparable role by reference to appropriate external benchmark 
information and having regard to an individual’s responsibilities, performance, qualifications, experience and location. An Executive’s 
compensation is also reviewed on promotion.

Fixed compensation includes contributions to superannuation and pension plans in accordance with relevant legislation or as contractually 
required. Fixed compensation is structured as a total employment cost package which may be delivered to the Executive as a mix of cash 
and prescribed non-financial benefits at the Executive’s discretion. There are no guaranteed pay increases in any Senior Executive’s contract.

employment contract.

fixed compensation. 

yy Performance measurements have been applied to each component of STI and accordingly, entitlements were determined with regard 
to the Executive’s level and area of responsibility. Performance against the objectives was determined and incentives and entitlements 
assessed against the audited financial results. 

yy Due to the company’s financial position, the STI for the following key Executives was converted to an LTI utilising the Employee Share

Share Options/Share Performance Right Plans/Employee Share Loan Scheme
The Company’s long-term incentive arrangements (LTI) are designed to link Executive compensation with growth in shareholder value 
through the grant of options or rights over equity securities (shares) in the Company. The Company’s Executive Share Option Plan (ESOP) 
and Funtastic Employee Performance Share Rights (EPSR) were replaced by the Employee Share Loan Scheme (ESLS) established during 
the 2013 financial year. As at the 31 July 2015 all options relating to the ESOP and EPSR had expired. 

During the 2013 financial year (as part of the Company’s LTI arrangements), the Company established the Funtastic Employee Share Loan 
Scheme (ESLS). At the Board’s discretion, eligible employees were invited to participate in the scheme.

The Funtastic Employee Share Loan Scheme Trust (Trust) was established for the purpose of purchasing and holding shares on behalf of 
participants to satisfy exercises made under the ESLS operated by Funtastic. Under the ESLS, an interest free limited recourse loan (a loan 
where the participant’s risk will be limited to the shares issued to the participant under or in connection with the plan) to the value of the 
grant date issue price per share was granted to each participant. Each participant directs Funtastic to pay the loan amount to the trustee of 
the Trust and the trustee to use the loan amount to acquire shares on behalf of the Participant, which are held until the exercise date of the 
option under which they were purchased.

The loan is repayable by the participant when the options become exercisable, being after the vesting date and subject to the satisfaction 
of the vesting conditions. When the options are exercisable, in the event that the balance of the loan is less than the estimated market 
value of shares that secure the loan less estimated transaction costs, a participant may request Funtastic to sell the shares on the ASX and 
that the funds received from the sale of those shares, less any costs incurred in connection with the sale and less the loan balance be 
remitted to the participant.

The shares are eligible to participate in dividends declared by the Company. Any dividends paid will be utilised to reduce the carrying value 
of each scheme participant’s individual loan balance on the dividend payment date. In the event that the loan balance is greater than the sale 
proceeds, a participant may request Funtastic to transfer the shares which secure the loan to the participant provided that the participant 
remits any outstanding balance of the loan to Funtastic as repayment of the loan. 

In the event that an employee ceases employment with Funtastic, is entitled to vested shares and does not direct Funtastic to sell or 
transfer such Shares to the participant and the balance of the loan is greater than the estimated proceeds amount, Funtastic must buy back 
and cancel such shares with the consideration from the buyback being the full satisfaction of the then outstanding balance of the loan. The 
participant will have no further entitlements to or in respect of the shares. 

No performance conditions are attached to the ESLS and the only vesting condition is a service condition which requires participants to 
remain in employment until 1 January 2016 for Tranche 1, 6 November 2016 for Tranche 2 and 31 July 2017 for Tranche 3a. There were 
no performance conditions attached to share options under Tranche 3b, options vested at date of grant. Although there are no 
performance conditions attached to the ESLS, eligible employees only benefit from the scheme through improvements in the share price 
of the company, which results from improved performance. The options become exercisable only when the vesting conditions are met. 
(See Note 34) 

The expiry date of the ESLS options is on the date the employee ceases employment with Funtastic. Further details on the ESLS, the ESLS 
Trust and the ESLS’s interest free limited recourse loan are set out in Note 34 of the financial statements.

The board has discretion to waive any vesting conditions or other restrictions attached to the ESLS in accordance with the ESLS plan rules 
provided that such amendments do not unduly prejudice the rights of existing participants.

(i)  There are no performance conditions attached to this share option. The only vesting condition is for participants to remain in employment until 1 January 2016 for 

tranche 1, 6 November 2016 for tranche 2 and 31 July 2017 for tranche 3b. The design of the ESLS is to link Executive compensation with continuing service commitment 
to Funtastic and growth in shareholder value.

(ii)  The expiry date is on the date the employee ceases employment with Funtastic whether vested or not.

(iii)  There are no vesting conditions attached to the share options in the Tranches. Options issued vested at the date of grant.

There have been no alteration of the terms and conditions of the above share-based payment arrangements since the grant date. 

Shares provided on exercise of remuneration options
No ESOP or ESLS options were exercised during the current financial year or preceding financial year.

Consistent with prior year, Funtastic holds a combined media purchasing arrangement with The Three of Us, which results in 
advantageous marketing costs. The media purchasing arrangement positions Funtastic to facilitate payment of marketing costs for both 
Funtastic and The Three of Us, following which The Three of Us reimburses Funtastic for their portion of advertising. A total amount of 
$2,078,859 (2014: $1,024,968) was passed through to Funtastic in respect to their arrangements. In this respect Funtastic is acting as an 
agent for the Three of Us, however earning no margin in the process. Given the substance of this arrangement, there is no impact upon 
the Group’s consolidated profit or loss.

(d)  Transactions with other related parties 

Transactions between Funtastic Limited and other entities in the wholly-owned Group during the financial years ended 31 July 2015 
and 31 July 2014, which were eliminated on consolidation, consist of:
yy sales made by Funtastic Limited;
yy loans advanced and interest charged by Funtastic Limited;
yy payments made by KMP on behalf of Funtastic Limited;
yy advances made by KMP on behalf of Funtastic Limited;

Independent Auditor’s Report 
to the Members of Funtastic Limited 

Report on the Financial Report  

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  financial  report  of  Funtastic  Limited,  which  comprises  the 
statement  of  financial  position  as  at  31  July  2015,  the  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other 
comprehensive income, the statement of cash flows and the statement of changes in equity for the year 
ended  on  that  date,  notes  comprising  a  summary  of  significant  accounting  policies  and  other 
explanatory  information,  and  the  directors’  declaration  of  the  consolidated  entity,  comprising  the 
company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year 
as set out on pages 36 to 96.  

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  consolidated  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 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  company’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 company’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.

Auditor’s Independence Declaration 

In conducting  our audit, we  have complied  with the independence requirements  of the  Corporations 
Act  2001.  We  confirm  that  the  independence  declaration  required  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001, 
which has been given to the directors of Funtastic Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the 
directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.  

Opinion 

In our opinion: 

(a)  the  financial  report  of  Funtastic  Limited  is  in  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001, 

including: 

(i)  giving a true and fair view  of the consolidated  entity’s financial position as at  31 July 2015 

and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and 

(ii)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and 

(b)  the  consolidated  financial  statements  also  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting 

Standards as disclosed in Note 2. 

Report on the Remuneration Report  

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in  pages 21 to 32 of the directors’ report for the 
year  ended  31  July  2015.  The  directors  of  the  company  are  responsible  for  the  preparation  and 
presentation  of  the  Remuneration  Report  in  accordance  with  section  300A  of  the  Corporations  Act 
2001.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  the  Remuneration  Report,  based  on  our  audit 
conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. 

Opinion 

In  our  opinion  the  Remuneration  Report  of  Funtastic  Limited  for  the  year  ended  31  July  2015, 
complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.

Directors’ Declaration

The Directors declare that:

(a) 

(b) 

(c) 

in the Directors’ opinion there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they 
become due and payable;

in the Directors’ opinion the attached financial statements are in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards, 
as stated in Note 2 to the financial statements;

in the Directors’ opinion, the attached financial statements and Notes thereto are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, 
including compliance with accounting standards and giving a true and fair view of the financial position and performance of the 
Group; and

(d) 

the Directors have been given the declarations required by section 295A of the Corporations Act 2001.

At the date of this declaration, the Company is within the class of companies affected by ASIC Class Order 98/1418 and has entered into 
a deed of cross guarantee as contemplated in that order. The nature of the deed of cross guarantee is such that each company which is 
party to the deed guarantees to each creditor payment in full of any debt in accordance with the deed of cross guarantee.

In the Directors’ opinion, there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company and the companies to which the ASIC Class Order

Notes to the Financial Statements
31 July 2015

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies
Statement of compliance
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations, and comply with other requirements of the law. The financial statements comprise 
the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements the Group is a for profit entity.

Accounting Standards include Australian Accounting Standards. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the 
financial statements and notes comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 30 September 2015.

The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Class Order 98/0100, dated 10 July 1998, and in accordance with that Class 
Order amounts in the Director’s report and the financial report are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Basis of preparation
The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for derivative financial instruments that have been measured 
at fair value. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian 
dollars, unless otherwise stated. 

Going concern basis
The loss of $37,533,000 and operating cash outflow of $7,880,000 in the current financial period were primarily driven by softer revenue 
from international markets due to slower than anticipated release of products as well as from the continued program of clearing excess 
inventory. Since 31 July 2014, when the group divested its Madman Entertainment business, the Group has restructured its operations 
such that all assets and resources are managed at a Group level. This has resulted in significant cost savings which have been realised in the 
second half of the financial year, together with the benefits of improved pricing negotiated with a number of major customers and suppliers 
and the results expected from the release of new products into new markets including the United States, the benefit for which is expected 
in FY16. Based on management’s forecasts, the Group will return to profit during the first half of the new financial year. 

Whilst there is a net current liability position of $29,375,000 (2014: $6,005,000), the financial statements have been prepared on a going 
concern basis, due to the fact that of the total current borrowings of $42,431,000 (2014: $29,357,000), $22,657,000 (2014: $25,427,000) 
relate to trade finance facilities that will be available to the Group beyond the next twelve months and a further $11,965,000 relates to 
long term debt reassigned as short term in the current financial period due to the updated facility agreement not executed until after 
31 July 2015.

Based on the Group’s forecasts, the revised facility is expected to be sufficient to meet Funtastic’s cash flow requirements and no breaches 
of financial covenants are forecast.

(a)  Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company 
(its subsidiaries) (referred to as “the Group” in these financial statements). Control is achieved when the Company: 
yy has the power over the investee;
yy is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
yy has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more 
of the three elements of control listed above.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company losses control 
of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date the Company ceases 
to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling 
interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even 
if this results in the non-controlling interest having a deficit balance. 

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the 
Group’s accounting policies.

All intra-Group assets and liabilities, equity, income and expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group 
are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Funtastic Annual Report 2015Notes to the Financial Statements
continued

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern basis continued
(b)  Income tax

(i)  Current tax

The income tax expense or revenue for the year is the tax payable or receivable on the current year’s taxable income based on the national 
income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences 
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and to unused tax losses.

(ii)  Deferred tax

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at 
the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted, or 
substantively enacted, for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable 
temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability.

An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset 
or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that 
at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer 
probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable 
amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments 
in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable 
that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

(iii)  Current and deferred tax for the period

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. 

(iv)  Tax Losses

A deferred tax asset in respect to tax losses is only recognised where there is a reasonable certainty that future taxable profits will be 
guaranteed. Management assesses continuity of ownership bi-annually and based on the expected future profits, for the 2 years following 
balance date, books a deferred tax asset to reflect the future benefits from tax revenue losses incurred to date. Management are confident 
that the company will deliver sustainable profits.

(v)  Tax Consolidation

The company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities are part of a tax-consolidated Group under Australian taxation law. 
Funtastic Limited is the head entity in the tax-consolidated Group. Tax expense/revenue, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets 
arising from temporary differences of the members of the tax-consolidated Group are recognised in the separate financial statements of 
the members of the tax-consolidated Group using the “separate taxpayer within Group” approach by reference to the carrying amounts 
in the separate financial statements of each entity and the tax values applying under tax consolidation. 

Due to the existence of a tax funding arrangement between the entities in the tax-consolidated Group, amounts are recognised as payable 
to or receivable by the company and each member of the Group in relation to the tax contribution amounts paid or payable between the 
parent entity and the other members of the tax-consolidated Group in accordance with the arrangement. Further information about the 
tax funding arrangement is detailed in Note 8 to the financial statements. 

(c)  Foreign currency translation

(i)  Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic 
environment in which the entity operates. Financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Funtastic Limited’s functional 
and presentation currency.

42

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern basis continued
(c)  Foreign currency translation continued

(ii)  Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at 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, except when 
deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.

Translation differences on non-monetary items, such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss, are reported as part of the fair 
value gain or loss. 

(iii)  Group companies

The results and financial position of all the Group entities, (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy), that have 
a functional currency different from the presentation currency, are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
yy assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;
yy income and expenses for each profit or loss presented are translated at the 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

yy all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity. 

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings and other 
currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to equity. When a foreign operation is sold or borrowings 
repaid a proportionate share of such exchange differences are recognised in the profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity 
and translated at the closing rate.

(d)  Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and deposits at call which are readily convertible to cash on hand and are subject to 
an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet. 

(e)  Revenue 

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, 
discounts, rebates and GST paid.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when a Group entity has delivered products to the customer. Delivery does not occur until 
the products have been shipped to the specified location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer and the 
customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed or the Group has 
objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.

Commission revenue is recorded when the consideration is receivable based on when the goods have been dispatched to a customer 
by the third party.

Interest income is recognised on a time proportionate basis using the effective interest rate method. Management fee revenue is 
recognised in accordance with the entitlement to fees for the management services provided and is brought to account on an accrual basis.

(f)  Rental Income 

Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in 
negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis 
over the lease term.

(g)  Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly 
attributable to the acquisition of the item. 

Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis to write off the net cost of each item of plant and equipment over the shorter of its 
expected useful life and the lease term. Estimates of remaining useful lives are made on a regular basis for all assets, with annual 
reassessments for major items.

43

Funtastic Annual Report 2015Notes to the Financial Statements
continued

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern basis continued
(g)  Plant and Equipment continued

The cost of improvements to or on leasehold properties is amortised over the estimated useful life of the improvement to the Group. 
The expected useful lives are as follows:

Plant and equipment: 
Leasehold improvements: 

(h)  Loans and receivables

2.5 – 10 years 
5 Years

Trade, loans and other receivables, are measured at amortised cost, less allowance for doubtful debts, rebates and settlement discounts, 
where appropriate.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. An allowance 
for doubtful receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according 
to the original terms of the receivables. The amount is recognised in the profit or loss.

(i)  Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs are assigned to individual items of stock on the basis of weighted 
average costs. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less the carrying value of inventory and costs necessary to make 
the sale.

Stock write downs occur where the estimated selling price of stock, in the ordinary course of business, is less than the estimated costs 
of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Excess stock levels are reviewed on a regular basis, where discussions with the sales 
teams are undertaken. 

(j)  Trade payables 

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year for which an invoice 
has been processed through the Group’s payables system and the amount remains unpaid. 

The amounts are unsecured and usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

(k)  Goods and services tax 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except:
yy where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition 

of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or

yy for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing 
activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority are classified as operating cash flows.

(l)  Leased Non-Current Assets

A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and benefits 
incidental to ownership of leased non-current assets (finance leases), and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains 
substantially all such risks and benefits.

Finance leases are capitalised (Note 23). A leased asset and a liability are established at the lower of fair value and the present value of 
minimum lease payments. Lease payments are allocated between the principal component of the lease liability and the interest expense, 
so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

The leased assets are amortised on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, or where it is likely that the economic entity will obtain 
ownership of the asset, the life of the asset. Leased assets held at the reporting date are being amortised over five years.

Lease payments are allocated between interest (calculated by applying the interest rate implicit in the lease to the outstanding amount 
of the liability) and reduction of the liability.

Operating lease payments are charged to the profit or loss account on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. In the event that 
lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefits of incentives 
are recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more 
representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.

44

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern basis continued
(m)  Share-based payments

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees via the Funtastic Executive Share Option Plan, Employee Performance 
Share Rights Plan and the Employee Share Loan Scheme.

The fair value of options and performance share rights granted under the Funtastic Executive Share Option Plan, Funtastic Employee 
Performance Share Rights Plan and Employee Share Loan Scheme is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding 
increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the employees become 
unconditionally entitled to the options (vesting period).

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using an appropriate option pricing model that takes into account the exercise 
price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the non-tradeable nature of the option, the share 
price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield, total shareholder performance 
hurdles and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

The fair value of the options, performance share rights and schemes granted excludes the impact of any non-market vesting conditions 
(for example, profitability and sales growth targets). Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of 
options that are expected to become exercisable. At each balance sheet date, the entity revises its estimate of the number of options that 
are expected to become exercisable. The employee benefit expense recognised each period takes into account the most recent estimate.

Upon the exercise of options or performance share rights, the balance of the share-based payments reserve relating to those options is 
transferred to share capital.

The market value of shares issued to employees for no cash consideration under the employee share scheme is recognised as an employee 
benefits expense with a corresponding increase in equity when the employees become entitled to the shares.

(n)  Borrowings

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.

Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense 
recognised on an effective yield basis. 

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the 
relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of 
the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

(o)  Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs include:
yy interest on bank overdrafts and short-term and long-term borrowings;
yy finance lease charges; and
yy certain exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings. 

(p)  Employee benefits

(i)  Wages and salaries and annual leave

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave where it is 
probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months, are measured at their nominal 
values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. 

Liabilities recognised in respect of employee benefits which are not expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at the present 
value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date.

(ii)  Defined contribution plans

Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed when incurred.

(iii)  Profit sharing and bonus plans

Liabilities for profit sharing and bonus plans are expected to be settled within 12 months and are measured at the amounts expected 
to be paid when they are settled.

Employee benefit on-costs, including payroll tax, are recognised and included in employee benefit liabilities and costs, when the employee 
benefits to which they relate are recognised as liabilities.

(q)  Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately or in a business combination are initially measured at cost. The cost of an intangible asset acquired 
in a business combination is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less 
any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalised 
development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred. 
Amortisation of the Group’s intangible assets is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful 
life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being 
accounted for on a prospective basis. 

Intangible assets are amortised, based on the useful live assessed by management, as follows:
yy Software 
yy Patents 
yy Trademarks 
yy Licensed distribution agreements 
yy Brand names 

10-15 years

1-10 years

Indefinite

3-7 years

20 years

During the current financial year, management reassessed the useful life of licensed distribution agreements relating to certain brands 
owned by the company to be 10 years with amortisation commencing from the start of the current financial year.

(r)  Goodwill

Goodwill arising in a business combination is recognised as an asset at the date that control is acquired (the acquisition date). Goodwill is 
measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the 
fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition date amounts of the 
identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the consideration 
transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest 
in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.

Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to 
each of the Group’s cash generating units (CGUs), or groups of CGUs, expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. 
CGUs (or groups of CGUs) to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or 
changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired.

If the recoverable amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) is less than the carrying amount of the CGU (or groups of CGUs), the 
impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (or groups of CGUs) and then to the 
other assets of the CGU (or groups of CGUs) pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU (or groups of CGUs). 
An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is recognised immediately in profit or loss and is not reversed in subsequent periods.

On disposal of an operation within a CGU, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on 
disposal of the operation.

(s)  Derivative financial instruments

The Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risk, 
including forward contracts comprising foreign exchange forward contracts and options and interest rate swaps. Further details of 
derivative financial instruments are disclosed in Note 34 to the financial statements. 

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their 
fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and 
effective as a hedging instrument, in which event, the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge 
relationship. The Group designates certain derivatives as either hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or firm 
commitments (fair value hedges), or hedges of highly probable forecast transactions or hedges of foreign currency risk of firm 
commitments (cash flow hedges).

46

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern basis continued
(s)  Derivative financial instruments continued

The fair value of hedging derivatives is classified as a current asset or current liability if the remaining maturity of the hedge relationship is 
less than 12 months and as a non-current asset or a non-current liability if the remaining maturity of the hedge relationship is more than 
12 months.

(i)  Cash flow hedges

The Group designates certain hedging instruments, derivatives in respect of foreign currency, as cash flow hedges.

At the inception of the hedge relationship, the entity documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, 
along with its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Furthermore, at the inception of 
the hedge and on an ongoing basis, the Group documents whether the hedging instrument is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair 
values or cash flows of the hedged item.

Note 33 contains details of the fair values of the derivative instruments used for hedging purposes. Movements in the hedging reserve 
in equity are also detailed in the statement of changes in equity.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in equity 
in the hedging reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in other comprehensive income.

Amounts accumulated in equity are recycled in the statement of profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item will affect profit or 
loss (for instance when the forecast sale that is hedged takes place). However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the 
recognition of a non-financial asset (for example, inventory) or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity 
are transferred from equity and included in the measurement of the initial cost or carrying amount of the asset or liability. When a hedging 
instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss 
existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the statement 
of profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is 
immediately transferred to the statement of profit or loss.

(t)  Financial assets

All financial assets are recognised and derecognised on trade date where the purchase or sale of the financial asset is under a contract 
which terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at 
fair value, plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) which are initially 
measured at fair value.

Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL. A financial asset 
is classified as held for trading if:
yy it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or
yy on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual 

pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

yy it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognised in profit or loss. The net 
gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset. Fair value is determined in the 
manner described in Note 33.

(i)  Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective 
evidence that as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset the estimated future cash 
flows of the investment have been impacted. For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference 
between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade 
receivables where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is uncollectible, 
it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss. 

If in a subsequent period the amount of impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after 
the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent the carrying 
amount of the investment at the date of the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the 
impairment not been recognised.

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern basis continued
(u)  Financial instruments issued by the Group

(i)  Equity instruments

Equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. 
Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in contributed equity.

(ii)  Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in profit or loss. 
The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability. Fair value is determined in the 
manner set out in Note 34.

(iii)  Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value net of transaction costs. Other financial liabilities are 
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the 
relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of 
the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

(v)  Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the 
Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is a best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, 
taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated 
to settle the present obligations, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. 

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable 
is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that recovery will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

(w)  Onerous contracts

The Group enters into royalty contracts with key suppliers. The terms of the royalty agreements require minimum levels of royalty 
payments to be offset against the minimum guarantees received at the start of the contract. An onerous contract is deemed to exist for 
the Group if, after calculating the net contribution relating to the products sold under the specific contract, there is a shortfall between the 
minimum guarantee and the actual royalty derived (or forecast to be derived in future periods) from the reported sales. Net contribution 
is calculated after taking into account net sales revenue, cost of goods sold, applicable royalties and direct selling costs. If the royalty 
shortfall cannot be recovered from the resulting net contribution a provision for onerous contracts is made through profit or loss.

(x)  Impairment of tangible and intangible assets (other than goodwill)

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any 
indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated 
in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from 
other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent 
basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual CGU, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest 
group of CGU for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost 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 which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset 
(or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. 

An impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (CGU) is increased to the revised estimate of its 
recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have 
been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (CGU) in prior years.

48

Note 1:  Significant accounting policies continued
Going concern basis continued
(y)  Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business, the operations and cash flows of which can be clearly distinguished 
from the rest of the Group and which:
yy represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;
yy is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or 
yy is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to re-sale.

Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held-for-sale, 
if earlier.

When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income 
is re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative year.

The assets or disposal group, are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss on 
a disposal group, is first allocated to goodwill, and then to remaining assets and liabilities on a pro-rata basis, except that no loss is allocated 
to inventories, financial assets and deferred tax assets which continue to be measured in accordance with the Group’s other accounting 
policies. Gains or losses on disposal are recognised in profit or loss.

(z)  Determination of fair values

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial 
assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes, based on the methods as stated 
below. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific 
to that asset or liability.

In estimating the fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses market observable data to the extent it is available. Where it is not 
available, the Group engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation.

The fair value of the asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly 
transaction between market participants at measurement date. 

The Group shall use valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure 
fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. 

To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, the Group has adopted the fair value 
hierarchy established in AASB 13 ‘Fair Value Measurement’ that categorises fair value measurement into three levels:
yy Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
yy Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable 

for the asset or liability, either directly (ie. as prices) or indirectly (ie. derived from prices).

yy Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not 

based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Valuation techniques used to measure fair value shall be applied consistently. However, a change in a valuation technique or its application 
(eg. a change in its weighting when multiple valuation techniques are used or a change in an adjustment applied to a valuation technique) 
is appropriate if the change results in a measurement that is equally or more representative of fair value in the circumstances.

Note 2:  Application of new and revised Accounting Standards
2.1  Standards and Interpretations affecting amounts reported in the current period (and/or prior periods)
The following new and revised Standards and Interpretations have been adopted in the current year and may have affected the amounts 
reported in these financial statements.

(a)  Standards affecting presentation and disclosure

(i)  AASB 2012-3 ‘Amendments to AASB 136 – Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets’

The amendments to AASB 136 remove the requirement to disclose the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit (CGU) to which 
goodwill or other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives had been allocated, when there has been no impairment or reversal of 
impairment of the related CGU. Furthermore, the amendments introduce additional disclosure requirements applicable to when the 
recoverable amount of an asset or a CGU is measured at fair value less costs of disposal. These new disclosures include the fair value 
hierarchy, key assumptions and valuation techniques used which are in line with the disclosure required by AASB 13 ‘Fair Value 
Measurements’. This amendment has been adopted by the Company and reflected in Note 15 to the financial statements.

(ii)  AASB 2014-1 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards’ (Part A: Annual Improvements 2010-2012 and 2011-2013 Cycles)

The Annual Improvements 2010-2012 has made number of amendments to various AASBs, which are summarised below.
yy The amendments to AASB 2 (i) change the definitions of ‘vesting condition’ and ‘market condition’; and (ii) add definitions for 
‘performance condition’ and ‘service condition’ which were previously included within the definition of ‘vesting condition’. The 
amendments to AASB 2 are effective for share based payment transactions for which the grant date is on or after 1 July 2014.

yy The amendments to AASB 3 clarify that contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability should be measured at fair 
value at each reporting date, irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is a financial instrument within the scope of AASB 9 
or AASB 139 or a non-financial asset or liability. Changes in fair value (other than measurement period adjustments) should be 
recognised in profit and loss. The amendments to AASB 3 are effective for after 1 July 2014. 

yy The amendments to AASB 8 (i) require an entity to disclose the judgements made by management in applying the aggregation 

criteria to operating segments, including a description of the operating segments aggregated and the economic indicators assessed in 
determining whether the operating segments have ‘similar economic characteristics’; and (ii) clarify that a reconciliation of the total of 
the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets should only be provided if the segment assets are regularly provided to the chief 
operating decision-maker.

yy The amendments to the basis for conclusions of AASB 13 clarify that the issue of AASB 13 and consequential amendments to 

AASB 139 and AASB 9 did not remove the ability to measure short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate at 
their invoice amounts without discounting, if the effect of discounting is not material.

yy The amendments to AASB 124 clarify that a management entity providing key management personnel services to a reporting entity 
is a related party of the reporting entity. Consequently, the reporting entity should disclose as related party transactions the amounts 
incurred for the service paid or payable to the management entity for the provision of key management personnel services. However, 
disclosure of the components of such compensation is not required.

The Annual Improvements 2011-2013 has made number of amendments to various AASBs. Management have assessed that these 
improvements do have an impact on the Group.

The application of these amendments does not have any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts recognised in the Group’s 
consolidated financial statements.

(iii)  AASB 1031 ‘Materiality’, AASB 2013-9 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Conceptual Framework, Materiality 
and Financial Instruments’ (Part B: Materiality), AASB 2014-1 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards’ (Part C: Materiality)

The revised AASB 1031 is an interim standard that cross-references to other Standards and the ‘Framework for the Preparation and 
Presentation of Financial Statements’ (issued December 2013) that contain guidance on materiality. The AASB is progressively removing 
references to AASB 1031 in all Standards and Interpretations. Once all of these references have been removed, AASB 1031 will be 
withdrawn. The adoption of AASB 1031, AASB 2013-9 (Part B) and AASB 2014-1 (Part C) does not have any material impact on the 
disclosures or the amounts recognised in the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

(b)  Standards and Interpretations affecting the reported results or financial position

(i)  AASB 2012-3 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities’

The amendments to AASB 132 clarify the requirements relating to the offset of financial assets and financial liabilities. Specifically, the 
amendments clarify the meaning of ‘currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off’ and ‘simultaneous realisation and settlement’. 
The amendments have been applied retrospectively.

The Group has assessed whether certain of its financial assets and financial liabilities qualify for offset based on the criteria set out in the 
amendments and concluded that the application of the amendments does not have any material impact on the amounts recognised in the 
Group’s consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Note 3:  Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 2, the Directors are required to make judgements, 
estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. 
The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. 
Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the 
period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the 
revision affects both current and future periods.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting 
period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next 
financial year.

(i)  Impairment of goodwill in continuing business segments

The Group tests annually or when impairment indicators are identified, whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance 
with the accounting policy. The recoverable amounts of the cash-generating units have been determined on a value in use basis. These 
calculations require the use of assumptions. A significant change to these assumptions may affect the recoverable amount of the cash 
generating units (refer to Note 15).

(ii)  Recoverability of prepaid and committed royalty and license agreements

In order to secure product distribution rights the Group is required to prepay for royalties relating to licensed products. The Group 
reviews the recoverability of prepaid royalty and license agreements (Note 12) on an annual basis. The Group takes into account current 
and projected market sell through in assessing the recoverability of royalty commitments.

(iii)  Useful life of intangible assets

Management have assessed the useful life of intangibles on the following basis:
yy Software – based on the licence or expected 
yy Patents and Trademarks – based on the contractual life of the patent
yy Licensed distribution agreements – based on the term of the agreement or the expected Brand product life cycle

Whilst the current useful lives are management’s best estimate, a periodic review is undertaken to ensure that these remain appropriate.

(iv)  Recoverability of inventory

The Group periodically assesses whether the net realisable value (NRV) of its inventories is reasonable in light of changing market 
conditions within the retail sector and the Group’s reassessment of brand portfolio. Whilst the Group has provided to recognise the best 
estimate for the amount for which its inventory will be realised, the final amounts will be subject to the prevailing market conditions and 
may differ from the amounts provided for.

(v)  Recoverability of debtors

 The Group periodically assesses the net realisable value of its trade debtors in light of ageing and other market indicators of impairment. 
Whilst the Group has provided against impaired debts based on its best estimate of the recoverable amount, final amounts recovered may 
differ to that provided against.

(vi)  Taxation losses recognised as asset 

The Group has recognised a deferred tax asset in respect to revenue tax losses of approximately 2 years future profits based on the 
expected future taxable income. The final amount recoverable will depend on losses being available under the “continuity of ownership 
test”, where applicable the “same business test” and the Group achieving further taxable income. Management assesses both “continuity 
of ownership test” and availability of taxable income at each balance date. Based on the current assessment, Management believe it is 
appropriate to continue recognising two years of future taxable income, determined using current budget forecasts for FY16. Refer to 
Note 8 for details of tax losses taken up as at 31 July 2015.

(vii)  Discontinued operations

On 31 July 2014, the Group entered into and completed a sale agreement to dispose of Madman Entertainment. Consequently, Madman 
Entertainment ceased to be a subsidiary of the Group at 31 July 2014. At 31 July 2014, the Company recognised an asset of $3.8m relating to 
the working capital adjustment due from the Purchaser on final settlement in respect to the Madman sale. During the year, an independent 
review process was undertaken resulting in a determination that the amount receivable from Madman was $332,000. The Group has 
written down $3.5m against the receivable to reflect this determination. Whilst a provision has been made, the Group does not agree with 
the determination and is in the process of an appeal. The Group has received an expert’s opinion that it has a high probability of success.

52

Note 4:  Segment information
From 31 July 2014, post the sale of Madman Entertainment, Funtastic restructured the Group and consolidated its business strategy such 
that the Chief Operating Decision Maker directs assets and resources on a group wide basis. Accordingly, Funtastic have aligned internal 
reporting to reflect this change which has resulted in the company reducing the number from two segments at 31 July 2014 down to one 
at 31 July 2015.

Geographical Information
The Group operates in three principal geographical areas – Australia, Hong Kong and USA. The Group’s revenue from external 
customers and information by geographical location is as follows:

consolidated group.

Information about major customers
Included in revenues of Australia of $84,363,000, are revenues of approximately $62,434,000 (2014:$34,704,090), which arose from 
sales to that region’s four largest customers. 

Included in revenues of Hong Kong of $21,313,000, are revenues of approximately $7,158,000 (2014:14,374,917), which arose from sales 
to that region’s four largest customers. 

Total USA revenue for 2015 and 2014, arose from sales to that region’s three largest customers.

Note 5:  Discontinued operations
On 31 July 2014, Madman Entertainment ceased to be a subsidiary of the Group.

The Group recognised a loss before tax on the sale of the Madman Entertainment operations of $29,441,000 as at 31 July 2014. During 
the year ended 31 July 2015, the Company recognised further losses in respect to the sale of $3,669,000 relating to accumulated costs 
incurred for completion ($229,000) and a write down of the deferred consideration recognised at 31 July 2014 ($3,440,000). Whilst 
the Company has provided for the reduction in the deferred consideration to align with the Independent Accountant’s assessment, it 
is confident that the court appeal process will result in the recovery of a significant portion of the amount, and therefore a future profit 
being recognised by the Group.

Unrecognised taxable temporary differences associated with investments and interests in subsidiaries

Under the tax law, the taxable profit made by a tax-consolidated group in relation to an entity leaving the group depends on a range 
of factors, including the tax values and/or carrying values of the assets and liabilities of the leaving entities, which vary in line with the 
transactions and events recognised in each entity. The taxable profit or loss ultimately made on any disposal of the investments within the 
tax-consolidated group will therefore depend upon when each entity leaves the tax-consolidated group and the assets and liabilities that 
the leaving entity holds at that time.

The Group considers the effects of entities entering or leaving the tax-consolidated group to be a change of tax status that is only 
recognised when those events occur. As a result temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities have not been measured or recognised 
in relation to investments remaining within the tax-consolidated group.

Tax consolidation

(i)  Relevance of tax consolidation to the Group

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities formed a tax-consolidated Group with effect from 1 January 2003 and are 
therefore taxed as a single entity from that date. The head entity within the tax-consolidated Group is Funtastic Limited. The members of 
the tax-consolidated Group are identified in Note 31.

(ii)  Nature of tax funding arrangement and tax sharing agreement

Entities within the tax-consolidated Group have entered into a tax funding arrangement and a tax sharing agreement with the head entity. 
Under the terms of the tax funding arrangement, Funtastic Limited and each of the entities in the tax-consolidated Group have agreed to 
pay a tax equivalent payment to or from the head entity, based on the current tax liability or current tax asset of the entity. Such amounts 
are reflected in amounts receivable from or payable to the other entities in the tax consolidated Group.

The tax sharing agreement entered into between members of the tax-consolidated Group provide for the determination of the allocation 
of income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations or if an entity should leave the 
tax consolidated Group. The effect of the tax sharing agreement is that each member’s liability for tax payable by the tax consolidated 
Group is limited to the amount payable to the head entity under the tax funding arrangement.

Tax Losses

As at 31 July 2015 the Australian Group has carried forward revenue tax losses of approximately $73,791,000 (2014: $57,332,000). 
As at 31 July 2015 a deferred tax asset of $2,177,000 (2014: $10,161,000) has been booked relating to revenue tax losses of $7,257,000 
(2013: $33,873,000). The Company made losses in the current and previous reporting period. Following the assessment of the probability 
of recovery, having considered forecast future taxable income and current tax legislation with respect to carrying forward revenue tax 
losses, the full balance of tax losses available at 31 July 2015 of $66,553,000 has not been booked as a deferred tax asset in these 
financial statements.

The utilisation of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company generating future taxable profits in excess of the profits arising from 
the reversal of existing temporary differences. The Company has performed assessment of FY16 forecasts and results to date support 
the carrying of these losses.

(i)  The average credit period on sales of goods is 60 days (2014: 56 days). No interest is charged on the trade receivables.

The Group has provided for any receivable considered uncollectible and therefore deemed to be not recoverable.

Included in the Group’s trade receivable balance are debtors with a carrying amount of $1,679,000 (2014: $2,797,288) which are past 
due at the reporting date for which the Group has not provided as there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the Group

The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances. 

The Group reviews trade debtors on an ongoing basis and makes a provision against specific debtors based on management’s assessment

The Group reviews the provision for credit notes, rebates and settlement discounts on an ongoing basis and makes allowances for 
individual customers based on historical sales, trading terms and expected returns, settlement discounts and rebates.

In determining the recoverability of a trade receivable the Group considers any change in the credit quality of the trade receivable from 
the date credit was initially granted up to the reporting date. The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the customer base being 
large and unrelated. Accordingly, the Directors believe that there is no further credit provision required in excess of the allowance for 
doubtful debts.

Since 31 July 2014, post the sale of Madman Entertainment, Funtastic has restructured the operations of the Group and consolidated its 
business. As a result of this re-structuring, the number of CGU’s has reduced from two down to one. Goodwill is allocated to the single 
CGU in the business.

The CGU is required to perform an impairment test annually on goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets as required by 
AASB 136. More frequent reviews are performed for indications of impairment of the CGU, and where an indication of impairment 
is identified a formal impairment assessment is performed.

In addition to the requirement to perform the annual test, the Group has identified the following Indicators of impairment at 31 July 2015:
yy The financial year result was below budget expectations. This is due to lower than anticipated international sales as a result of 
high international distributor inventory levels and the continued efforts to clear excess inventory at lower margins and cost 
rationalisation initiatives.

yy The market capitalisation has declined during the financial year as a result of the devaluation of share price. This is the result of:

–  Divestment by one of the major institutions.

–  Lower than expected performance and the impact of the turnaround strategies not yet evident to the market.

–  High price volatility due to significant shareholding held by limited number of shareholders resulting in a limited volume of share 

available for trading.

As a result, the Group assessed the recoverable amount of the CGU and related goodwill and intangibles at 31 July 2015 having regard to 
the value-in-use approach. 

Impairment testing – Value-in-use
In calculating value-in-use, the cash flows include projections of cash inflows and outflows from continuing use of the group of assets making 
up the CGU. The cash flows are estimated for the assets of the CGU in their current condition and discounted to their present value using 
a post-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the risks specific to the CGU. The group uses a 5 year discounted 
cash flow model with a terminal growth rate for years beyond the 5 year forecast period.

Key assumptions
In determining the value-in-use, the following key assumptions were used:
yy EBITDA margin of 5.7% based upon the forecast product, sales and customer mix and assumptions about the fixed cost base;
yy The FY16 forecast includes expectations that, between 5%-10% of the Company’s revenue will be from the USA. Given the stage 

of the developments, this revenue has a higher level of uncertainty.

yy Terminal growth rate of 1.5% which is materially consistent with long term economic growth in the key markets in which the 

CGU operates;

yy Post-tax discount rate of 11%, which reflects the risks specific to the CGU.

Cash flow forecasts for the CGU are based on forecast sales and gross margins for FY2016. The forecast FY2016 sales forecast 
assumes that the CGU will achieve higher sales than FY2015 particularly in the international market. Margins used in the forecast are 
based upon a bottom up forecast approach, historical and anticipated product margins and assumptions on projected sales mix and 
rebate arrangements.

Note 15:  Non-current assets – Goodwill continued
Outcome of assessment
The Directors recognised an impairment of goodwill by an amount of $10,830,000 as at 31 January 2015. This impairment amount 
represented the lower impairment charge from the value-in-use impairment assessment completed at that date, and the cross check 
to fair value less cost of disposal (as disclosed in 31 January 2015 Half Year accounts). 

The assessment completed at 31 July 2015 has resulted in a recoverable amount of $50,258,434. As such, no additional impairment 
has been recognised.

Sensitivity analysis 
Changes in the key assumptions in the table below would have the following approximate impact on the recoverable amount of the 
CGU at 31 July 2015:

It must be noted that each of the sensitivities above assumes that a specific assumption moves in isolation, while the other assumptions 
are held constant. In reality, a change in one of the aforementioned assumptions could be accompanied by a change in another assumption, 
which may increase or decrease the net impact.

Notes to the Financial Statements
continued

Note 16:  Non-current assets – Other intangibles continued
(i)  Brand names acquired and separately identified as part of the acquisition of Mike & Jack confectionery in May 2006. The Group intends to continue the use of the brand 

names for an indefinite period and are therefore not amortised but are subject to an annual test for impairment. The key assumptions used in the fair value less cost to sell 
calculations are stated in Note 15.

(ii)  The amortisation expense has been included in the line item ‘amortisation’ in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Useful lives used in the 

calculation of amortisation of computer software costs are between 3 and 7 years. Distribution agreements have useful lives in the range of 1-10 years.

(iii)  Chill Factor trademarks and patents were acquired on 31 July 2013. The useful lives have been assessed as being between 10-15 years for trademarks and 20 years for 

patents in accordance with the contractual live of the asset. 

(iv)  On 30 January 2015, Funtastic acquired the remaining 25% of equity in Safety Products International Pty Limited for the amount of $277,000. This resulted in Funtastic 

currently having 100% ownership over the subsidiary.

(v)  During the year, the Group assessed the recoverable value of its other intangible assets. As a result of the impairment assessment, the Directors have determined to impair 

Brand names by an amount of $290,000.

(vi)  Software transfers relate to reclassification of intangibles to PPE.

(vi)  Licenses, distribution agreements and supplier relationships include the Pillow Pets and Floaties Brands which are now wholly owned and no longer licenced from third parties.

Reassessment of Useful life
The company reassessed the useful life of intangibles in respect to certain Brands. The useful lives of these particular intangibles were 
assessed to be 10 years, with amortisation commencing 1 August 2014. The impact of this reassessment on the results for FY15, and 
for each future period ending 31 July 2024, is an amortisation charge of $407,000 per annum. 

Impairment testing – Other Intangibles (Brands)
The brands recoverability has been assessed based on the royalty method by applying a market related royalty rate to the expected future 
sales and terminal growth rate. Projected sales were calculated based on historical sales, current budgets and long term forecasts. The 
estimated product life cycle of the intangible was also included in the calculation. Projected sales forecasts are consistent with forecasts 
used in the assessment of goodwill. Assets designated as Brand names are not amortised as they are considered to have an indefinite 
useful life.

Key assumptions
The following key assumptions were used:
yy Royalty rates based on comparative rates and adjusted for key brand attributes;
yy Terminal growth rate of 2.5%, and
yy Pre-tax discount rate of 13.5%, which reflects the risk specific to brands.
yy Included in the cash flow forecast is revenue expected from the Company’s distribution expansion in to the USA. Management is 
expecting between 5%-10% of the Company’s revenue from this market, which given its stage of development, has a higher level 
of uncertainty.

Outcome of assessment
The Group assessed the recoverable value of its other intangible assets at 31 January and 31 July 2015. As a result of this impairment 
assessment, the Directors impaired the confectionery Brand by an amount of $290,000 as at 31 January 2015. This impairment has arisen 
based upon an assessment of the discounted future earnings, determined by applying a market related royalty rate to expected future 
sales and terminal growth rate. No additional impairment is deemed necessary based on an impairment assessment conducted as at 
31 July 2015. 

Note 17:  Assets pledged as security
In accordance with the security arrangements of liabilities as disclosed in Note 19 to the financial statements, all assets of the Group, 
except goodwill and deferred tax assets, have been pledged as security. The Group does not have the right to sell or re-pledge the assets.

The Trade finance, Bill finance and Overdraft facilities are secured by a first ranking registered mortgage debenture over all assets and 
undertakings of the Group. See Note 17.

Post 31 July 2015 the overall facilities were extended to 31 December 2016. Due to the nature of the debtor and trade finance facilities, 
amounts are continually repaid and redrawn based on normal trade debtor and trade creditor terms. Amounts due at 31 December 2016 
in respect of these facilities have been disclosed as current borrowings in the statement of financial position.

Financing Arrangements 
Post the Group’s financial year end the Group’s senior lender, National Australia Bank, agreed to vary the terms of the existing facilities 
agreement to vary the timing of the 2015/2016 borrowing repayments. On 29 September 2015 the Group finalised an extension to the 
existing facilities to 31 December 2016.

The current interest rates are 8.45% on the trade finance facility and 7.14% on the bill finance facility (2014: 7.49% and 5.97% respectively, 
and debtors finance facility 5.78%)

Financing Arrangements – Controlled Entities
All facilities are secured by a first ranking mortgage debenture of the Group. Refer to Note 33 Financial Instruments for further details

The company has a dividend reinvestment plan under which holders of ordinary shares may elect to have all or part of their dividend 
entitlements satisfied by the issue of new ordinary shares rather than being paid in cash. 

Share Purchase Plan
There were no Share Purchase Plans offered to shareholders during the current year.

Options

Executive Share Option Plan

As at 31 July 2015, no options were on issue under the Executive Share Option Plan (2014: 9,333,333 over ordinary shares of the 
company). 1,333,333 share options expired on 10 August 2014. 

Employee Share Loan Schemes

On 31 July 2015, Funtastic Limited granted 17,100,000 options over ordinary shares of the Company under the Employee Share Loan 
Scheme (ESLS). Tranche 3b (3,600,000) options vest on 31 July 2018, conditional upon continued employment with Funtastic at that date. 
The remaining 13,500,000 options (Tranche 3a) vested on grant date.

The ESLS Trust was established for the purpose of purchasing and holding shares on behalf of participants. The trust is consolidated into 
the group financial statements at each report date. Upon acceptance of the ESLS invitation, these shares are granted to participants and 
held by the trust to satisfy Funtastic’s obligation under the ESLS. The share issue in respect of the ESLS shares is represented by treasury 
shares taken out of authorised unissued shares. Further details of the ESLS are set out in Note 34.

Note 33:  Financial Instruments
Capital risk management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return 
to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which comprises the borrowings detailed in Note 19, cash and cash equivalents and 
equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital, accumulated losses and reserves as disclosed in Notes 24, 
25 and 26 respectively.

The Board reviews the capital structure on a regular basis. As part of this review the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class 
of capital is considered. The Group balances its overall capital structure through the payment of dividends, new share issues and share 
buy-backs as well as the issue of new debt and the repayment of debt.

Whilst the company has been in the process of finalising the appropriate financing structure, post the sale of Madman Entertainment 
on 31 July 2014, the Company received waivers in relation to a number of breaches to covenants.

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 1 to the financial statements. These policies were consistent throughout the current year and the previous year.

Financial risk management objectives
The Group’s finance function provides services to the business, co-ordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, 
monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyse exposures 
by degree and magnitude of risk. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Group seeks to minimise the effects of these risks, by using various financial instruments to hedge these exposures. The use of 
financial instruments is governed by the Group’s policies approved by the Board of Directors, who provide written principles on foreign 
exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of financial derivatives and non-derivative financial instruments and the investment 
of excess liquidity. 

Compliance with policies and exposure limits is reviewed on a continual basis. The Group does not enter into any trade financial 
instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.

Market risk
The Group’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Group 
enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk, including:
yy Foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge the exchange rate risk arising on the import of goods denominated in US dollars; and
yy Interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk of rising interest rates.

At a Group level, market risk exposures are measured through sensitivity analysis and stress scenario analysis.

In 2015, while there has been a recent stabilisation of low variable interest rates there has been no material change to the Group’s 
exposure to market risk or the manner in which it manages and measures the risk.

84

Note 33:  Financial Instruments continued
Foreign currency risk management
Foreign currency risk refers to the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes 
in foreign exchange rates. The Group’s exposure to foreign exchange risk arises from the net investment in the United States operations 
and the undertaking of certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies. 

The carrying amount of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date 
is as follows:

Foreign currency sensitivity
The Group is mainly exposed to the US dollar, Euro and the HK dollar. The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase 
and 15% decrease in the Australian dollar against the relevant foreign currencies. 5/15% is the sensitivity rate which represents management’s 
assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated 
monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 15% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number indicates an 
increase in profit or loss where the Australian dollar strengthens against the respective currency. For a weakening of the Australian dollar 
against the respective currency there would be an equal and opposite impact on profit or loss and the balances below would be equal and 
opposite. A positive number indicates an increase in other equity where the Australian dollar weakens against the respective currency. 
For a strengthening of the Australian dollar against the respective currency there would be an equal and opposite impact on other equity 
and the balances below would be negative.

The Group has entered into contracts to purchase inventory from overseas suppliers. These forward foreign exchange contracts are for 
terms not exceeding 12 months to hedge the exchange rate risk arising from these anticipated future purchases, which are designated into 
cash flow hedges.

At balance date these purchase contracts were assets of the Group of $38,000 (2014: $44,000 liability).

During the year ended 31 July 2015 a gain on hedging instruments for the Group of $418,000 (31 July 2014: gain $983,000) has been 
brought to account in other current financial assets (Note 13) and liabilities (Note 22). An amount, net of tax, was transferred to equity 
(Note 26). It is anticipated these purchases will take place during the year to 31 July 2016 at which stage the amount deferred in equity 
will be included in the carrying amount of the finished goods inventory. It is anticipated that the finished goods inventory will be sold within 
12 months after purchase at which stage the amount deferred in equity will impact profit or loss. 

Interest rate risk management
Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in 
market interest rates. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as it borrows funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is 
managed by the use of interest rate swap contracts. Hedging activities are evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views and defined 
risk appetite, ensuring optimal hedging strategies are applied, by either positioning the statement of financial position or protecting interest 
expense through different interest rate cycles.

The Group’s exposure to interest rates on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section below.

Interest rate sensitivity
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates to the Group at the reporting date and 
the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period. The Group 
considers the likelihood of a 25 basis point increase or a 25 basis point decrease to be reasonable when reporting interest rate risk 
internally to key management personnel, as this represents management’s best estimate of the possible change in interest rates.

At reporting date, if interest rates had been 25 basis points higher or 25 basis points lower and all other variables were held constant, 
the Group’s:
yy Net profit after taxation would increase/(decrease) by $147,000/($147,000) respectively (2014: $386,000/($386,000)). This is mainly 

due to the Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable rate borrowings; and

yy Equity would increase by $168,000/$75,000 (2014: $28,000/$23,000 increase). This is due to the Group’s interest rate swap entered 

into on 4 November 2014.

Interest Rate Swap Contracts
Bank loans of the Group currently bear an average variable interest rate of 7.64% (2014: 6.82%). It is the Group’s policy to protect part of 
the loans from exposure to increasing interest rates. Accordingly, the Group has entered into an interest rate swap contract under which it 
is obliged to receive interest at variable rates and to pay interest at fixed rates. The contract is settled on a net basis and the net amount 
receivable or payable at the reporting date is included in financial assets/liabilities.

The floating rate on the interest rate swap is the Australian bank bill swap rate (BBSW). 

The contract requires settlement of net interest receivable or payable quarterly. The settlement dates coincide with the dates on which 
interest is payable on the underlying debt.

The swap currently in place covers 59% of the total debt outstanding with its senior lender and is timed to expire on 1 December 2017 
(2014: swap in place covered 73% of the long term loan principal outstanding). The fixed interest rate is 3.09% (2014: 4.02%) and the 
variable rate is the bank bill rate of the term of the underlying bill which at balance date was 2.11% (2014: 2.71%).

The interest rate swap contract exchanging floating rate interest amounts for fixed rate interest amounts is designated as a cash flow hedge 
in order to reduce the Group’s cash flow exposure resulting from variable interest rates on borrowings. The interest rate swap and the 
interest payments on the loan occur simultaneously and the amount deferred in equity is recognised in profit or loss over the loan period.

Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. 
The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its 
counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties.

Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers spread across diverse industries. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed 
on the financial condition of accounts receivable and, where appropriate, credit guarantee insurance is purchased. 

The Group has a credit risk exposure to a small number of major ASX listed corporations for which credit guarantee insurance is not 
purchased. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of these accounts receivable. 

The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, represents the Group’s 
maximum exposure to credit risk.

Liquidity risk management
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity 
risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management 
requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities 
by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

Fair value of financial instruments
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
yy The fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance 
with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices from observable current market 
transactions; and

yy The fair value of derivative instruments, are calculated using quoted prices. Where such prices are not available, discounted cash flow 
analysis using the applicable yield curve for the duration of the instruments for non-optional derivatives and option pricing models for 
optional derivatives is used.

The Directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the financial 
statements approximates their fair values.

Fair value measurements recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position
Fair value measurements are discussed in Note 3 and in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Employee Share Loan Scheme
During the 2013 financial year (as part of the Company’s LTI arrangements), the Company established the Funtastic Employee Share Loan 
Scheme (ESLS). At the Board’s discretion, eligible employees were invited to participate in the scheme. 

The Funtastic Employee Share Loan Scheme Trust (Trust) was established for the purpose of purchasing and holding shares on behalf of 
participants to satisfy exercises made under the ESLS operated by Funtastic. Under the ESLS, an interest free limited recourse loan (a loan 
where the participant’s risk will be limited to the shares issued to the participant under or in connection with the plan) to the value of the 
grant date issue price per share was granted to each participant. Each participant directs Funtastic to pay the loan amount to the trustee 
of the Trust and the trustee to use the loan amount to acquire shares on behalf of the Participant, which are held until the exercise date 
of the option under which they were purchased.

90

Note 34:  Share-based payments continued
Employee Share Loan Scheme continued
The loan is repayable by the participant when the options become exercisable, being after the vesting date and subject to the satisfaction 
of the vesting conditions. When the options are exercisable, in the event that the balance of the loan is less than the estimated market 
value of shares that secure the loan less estimated transaction costs, a participant may request Funtastic to sell the shares on the ASX 
and that the funds received from the sale of those shares, less any costs incurred in connection with the sale and less the loan balance 
be remitted to the participant.

The shares are eligible to participate in dividends declared by the Company. Any dividends paid will be utilised to reduce the carrying value 
of each scheme participant’s individual loan balance on the dividend payment date.

In the event that the loan balance is greater than the sale proceeds, a participant may request Funtastic to transfer the shares which secure 
the loan to the participant provided that the participant remits any outstanding balance of the loan to Funtastic as repayment of the loan. 

In the event that an employee ceases employment with Funtastic, is entitled to vested shares and does not direct Funtastic to sell or 
transfer such Shares to the participant and the balance of the loan is greater than the estimated proceeds amount, Funtastic must buy 
back and cancel such shares with the consideration from the buyback being the full satisfaction of the then outstanding balance of the loan. 
The participant will have no further entitlements to or in respect of the shares. 

No performance conditions are attached to the ESLS and the only vesting condition is a service condition which requires participants 
to remain in employment until 1 January 2016 for Tranche 1 and 6 November 2016 for Tranche 2. Although there are no performance 
conditions attached to the ESLS, eligible employees benefit from the scheme through improvements in the share price of the company, 
which results from improved performance. The options become exercisable only when the vesting conditions are met. The expiry date 
of the ESLS options is on the date the employee ceases employment with Funtastic. Further details on the ESLS, the ESLS Trust and the 
ESLSs interest free limited recourse loan are set out in Note 34 of the financial statements.

The board has discretion to waive any vesting conditions or other restrictions attached to the ESLS in accordance with the ESLS plan rules 
provided that such amendments do not unduly prejudice the rights of existing participants.

can be exercised at any date after vesting conditions have been met.

(ii)  The exercise price represents the issue price per share offered to participants upon invitation to participate in the ESLS. As part of the ESLS, an interest-free, limited 
recourse loan to each participant was offered for the purpose of acquiring shares in Funtastic. Further details on the loan are set out above. Dividends paid or payable 
if any, (less the estimated net tax payable on such dividends) are used or will be used to repay the principal of the loan granted to the participant. No dividends have 
been paid or are currently payable in relation to the ESLS since the inception of the scheme.

(iii)  The vesting date for the 13,500,000 ESLS options in Tranche 3a is the grant date, as there are no vesting conditions attached to the options.

an entity related to Mr Nir Pizmony;

yy Consistent with prior year, Funtastic holds a combined media purchasing arrangement with The Three of Us, which results in 

advantageous marketing costs. The media purchasing arrangement positions Funtastic to facilitate payment of marketing costs for 
both Funtastic and The Three of Us, following which The Three of Us reimburses Funtastic for their portion of advertising. A total 
amount of $2,078,859 (2014: $1,024,968) was passed through to Funtastic in respect to their arrangements. In this respect Funtastic 
is acting as an agent for the Three of Us, however earning no margin in the process. Given the substance of this arrangement, there 
is no impact upon the Group’s consolidate profit or loss. 

(d)  Transactions with other related parties

In 2014, the Company was subject to a royalty claim, in respect to disputed IP ownership on a product line. The Company has since 
(14 August 2015) reached an agreement, whereby a full and final payment of US$350,000 will be made. Accordingly, a provision has 
been made as at 31 July 2015 in respect to this claim in the financial statements. And no contingent liability is required.

As part of the share sale agreement the Company were required to provide final completion accounts and where an objection is received 
have a period in which to resolve any amount in dispute. Subsequent to the dispute, an independent accountant was appointed to 
adjudicate the claims. The Independent Accountant concluded in their final report, that an adjustment amount of $332,000 in Funtastic’s 
favour was payable by MFM. 

Funtastic has since sought external opinions on the Independent Accountant’s report from a number of reputable independent sources. 
All opinions are materially consistent with Management’s view on the appropriate classification of the disputed adjustments.

The Company has further filed a Statement of Claim, declaring the Independent Accountant made a manifest error in its findings and that 
the final decision of the Independent Accountant is not conclusive or binding on the parties for the purposes of determining adjustments to 
the draft completion accounts. Based on current advice, management have written down the deferred consideration receivable to $332,000. 
However, Management maintains the position that the amount of $3.38m as previously reported at January 2015 is fully recoverable.
