During the first-half of the financial year the group fully repaid all its outstanding term loans, which has further strengthened Cellnet’s financial position for the full year with cash held of $7.0m on 30 June 2021. Given the strong result, the board of directors has reinstated the Company’s full year dividend, declared at 0.30 cents per share, a yield of approximately 4.4% on the Cellnet share price as of close of trading 24 August 2021. The final dividend will be paid on 11 November 2021, the record date for determining the entitlement for the final dividend is 21 October 2021.

Remuneration at a glance Remuneration levels for key management personnel are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced executives. The Board as necessary obtains independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages of the group given trends in comparative companies both locally and internationally and the objectives of the Company’s remuneration strategy. Non-Executive Directors receive a fixed fee for their services, although may from time to time receive compensation in the form of shares or share options subject to the approvals outlined in section 4. 30 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Remuneration Report (audited) The remuneration structures explained below are designed to attract suitably qualified candidates, reward the achievement of strategic objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. The remuneration structures take into account: • • • the capability and experience of the key management personnel; the key management personnel’s ability to control performance; the group’s performance including: › › › the group’s earnings; and the growth in share price and delivering of constant returns on shareholder wealth; the amount of incentives within each key management person's remuneration. Remuneration packages include a mix of fixed and variable remuneration including short and long-term performance- based incentives. 3. Board oversight of remuneration Nomination and remuneration committee The nomination and remuneration committee is responsible for making recommendations to the board on the remuneration arrangements of directors and executives. The nomination and remuneration committee assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of non-executive directors and executives on a periodic basis by reference to the relevant employment market conditions, with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high performing director and executive team. Remuneration strategy Cellnet Group Limited’s remuneration strategy is designed to attract, motivate and retain employees and non-executive directors by identifying and rewarding high performers and recognising the contribution of each employee to the continued growth and success of the group. To this end, key objectives of the Company’s reward framework are to ensure that remuneration practices: • • • are aligned to the group’s business strategy; offer competitive remuneration benchmarked against the external market; provides strong linkage between the individual and the performance and rewards of the group. Remuneration structure In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and executive remuneration is separate and distinct. 4. Non-executive director remuneration arrangements Total remuneration for all Non-Executive Directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 1999 AGM, is not to exceed $300,000 per annum. Total Non-executive Director remuneration exceeded this limit in the 2021 financial year, due to options granted as detailed below. These options were approved by the shareholders at the AGM held on 22 October 2020. The Chairman’s base fee for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 was $50,000 (2020: $30,000). Non-executive director base fees ranged from $20,000 to $30,000 during the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (2020: $30,000). Non-executive directors do not receive performance related remuneration. Non-executive directors may, at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee and subject to shareholder approval, receive compensation in the form of shares or share options. In June 2020, the Chairman and two non-executive directors each agreed to reduce their base remuneration by $15,000 per annum in return for options over ordinary shares in the company, as detailed below. Further, 875,000 ordinary shares were issued to the Chairman in October 2020 in respect of services provided in the 2020 financial year. These share-based remuneration arrangements were approved by the Company’s shareholders at the 2020 AGM on 22 October 2020. 31 Remuneration Report (audited) continued Terms and conditions of options granted during the year 15,000,000 options were granted to Non-executive Directors during the year, as described above. These options were subject to a market-based vesting condition, whereby the options would vest on the earlier of the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of the company’s shares exceeding a target price for 5 consecutive days on which the shares are traded on the ASX, or 15 trading days regardless of whether shares trade on the ASX for consecutive trading days. For the purpose of these vesting conditions, the options were split into three tranches of 3,000,000, 6,000,000, and 6,000,000 options, with target share- prices of $0.05, $0.10 and $0.15 respectively. The grant date fair value per option of each of the three tranches granted during the year are $0.2162, $0.2178 and $0.2175 respectively. In addition, an option cannot be exercised unless the Board acting reasonably is satisfied that the following conditions have been satisfied: • • The option holders were also directors at the time when the relevant vesting condition was satisfied There is no outstanding breach of the terms of engagement with the company • No notice of termination of engagement has been either given by the director or received by the company; and • All vesting conditions have been satisfied.

Executive remuneration arrangements and the link to company performance 5.1 Fixed remuneration Fixed remuneration consists of base remuneration (which is calculated on a total cost basis and includes any fringe benefits tax charges related to employee benefits including motor vehicles) as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds. Remuneration levels are reviewed annually by the Board. 5.2 Variable remuneration – short term incentive (STI) and long term incentive (LTI) Performance includes both linked remuneration STI and LTI and is designed to reward executives for meeting or exceeding their financial and personal objectives. The STI is an ‘at risk’ bonus provided in the form of cash. 32 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 5.3 STI bonus The group operates an annual STI program that applies to executives and awards a cash bonus subject to the attainment of clearly defined group, business unit and individual measures. Actual STI payments awarded to each executive depends on the extent to which specific targets set at the beginning of each 12 months are met. The targets consist of a number of key performance indicators (KPIs) covering financial and non-financial, corporate and individual measures of performance. A summary of these measures and weightings are set out below. Return on equity Chief Executive Officer General Manager New Zealand Chief Financial Officer 100% N/A 100% These performance indicators were chosen as they represent the key drivers for the short-term success of the business and provide a framework for delivering long-term value. At the end of the financial year the Board assesses the actual performance of the group and the individual against their respective financial KPI’s set at the beginning of the financial year. No bonus is awarded where performance falls below 90% of the return on equity target. Performance beyond 90% is uncapped, and there is therefore no maximum amount of STI that may be awarded. The following table outlines the proportion of the agreed STI (as a percentage of base remuneration) that was earned and forfeited in relation to the 2021 financial year. Proportion of maximum STI earned in FY21 Proportion of maximum STI forfeited in FY21 D. Clark C. Barnes 144% 144% 0% 0% No other executives were eligible to earn an STI in the 2021 financial year. Remuneration Report (audited) STI awards for 2020 and 2021 financial years For the 2021 financial year, a total of $217,478 has been accrued which represents 100% of the total STI cash bonus which has vested to executives, based on the table above. This will be paid in the 2022 financial year. For the 2020 financial year, a total payment of $53,893 was made in the 2020 financial year which represents 100% of the total STI cash bonus previously accrued in that period which has vested to executives. 5.4 LTIs Executive Share Option Plan The Board has established an Executive Share Option Plan which is designed to provide incentives to the Executives of the group. The plan was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 18 December 2007. Under the plan the Board has the discretion to issue options to Executives as long as the issue does not result in the Executive owning or controlling the exercise of voting power attached to 5% or more of all shares then on issue. Each option is convertible to one ordinary share. The exercise price of the option is determined by the Board. The rules governing the operation of the plan may be amended, waived or modified, at any time by resolution of the Board provided there is no reduction of rights to Executives in the plan. If an amendment reduces the rights of Executives in the plan, it requires written consent of three-quarters of affected Executives. 33 Remuneration Report (audited) continued The plan may be terminated or suspended at any time by a resolution of the Board, provided the termination or suspension does not materially adversely affect the rights of persons holding options issued under the plan at that time. The following table summarises the Executive options issued granted, exercised, or forfeited/lapsed during the financial year. KMP Grant Date Expiry Date D. Clark D. Clark D.

The final measurement date for achievement of these performance hurdles was 30 June 2021. As the hurdles were not met, the options did not vest and were forfeited. financial year ended 30 June 2020. A further 117,778 shares were issued to the Chief Financial Officer under the plan in July 2020, for services provided in the 2020 financial year. No securities were issued under the performance rights plan in the 2020 financial year. 5.5 STI structure The Board considers that the above performance- linked remuneration structure is appropriate at this time. It provides both short-term focus on operating performance and longer term focus on share price growth. LTI Plan The Board has established a Long Term Incentive Plan which is designed to provide incentives to the Executives of the group. The plan was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 18 December 2007. The purpose and rules of the plan are the same as the Executive Share Option Plan described above, except that there is no prohibition on issuing shares if it would result in an Executive owning (legally or beneficially) or controlling the exercise of voting power attached to 5% or more of all shares then on issue. Performance Rights Plan On 10 October 2018 at the Company’s Annual General Meeting, shareholders approved a performance rights plan. Under this plan, performance rights (which may take the form of options or ordinary shares) are issued to executives. The rights deliver ordinary shares to senior management and Directors (at no cost to the senior management employee or Director) where the performance hurdle (where applicable) in relation to those performance rights is met. 875,000 shares were issued to the Chairman under the performance rights plan during the 2021 financial year. The shares, which were subject to shareholder approval at the company’s AGM on 22 October 2020, were in respect of performance rendered during the 2020 financial year, and the value of the shares was included in the Chairman’s remuneration for the 34 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Remuneration Report (audited) 5.6 Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth In considering the group’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Board has regard to the following indices in respect of the current financial year and previous financial years. 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 Net profit / (loss) attributable to equity holders of the Company $3,810,000 ($2,373,000) $405,000 $5,982,000 $2,035,000 Return on equity Dividends paid 15.0% (10.98%) 1.9% 38.2% 15.0% - - $782,439 $688,946 $649,325 Reduction (increase) of share capital $(336,000) $(4,936,000) - Change in share price $0.01 ($0.19) ($0.17) - $0.11 - $0.07 5.7 Other benefits During the current and prior year, there were no non-cash bonuses or benefits provided to executives. 6. Executive contractual arrangements It is the group’s policy that service contracts for executives are unlimited in term but capable of termination as per the relevant period of notice and that the group retains the right to terminate the contract immediately, by making payment that is commensurate with pay in lieu of notice. The service contract outlines the components of remuneration paid to the executive but does not prescribe how remuneration levels are modified year to year. Remuneration levels are reviewed each year to take into account cost-of-living changes, any change in the scope of the role performed by the senior executive and any changes required to meet the principles of the remuneration policy. Standard executive termination payment provisions apply to all current executives, including the Chief Executive Officer. The standards contractual provisions are as follows: Employer initiated termination Termination for serious misconduct Employee initiated termination Notice period Payment in lieu of notice 3 months 3 months Treatment of STI on termination Treatment of LTI on termination Pro-rated for time and performance Pro-rated for time and performance None None Unvested awards forfeited Unvested awards forfeited 3 months 3 months Pro-rated for time and performance Pro-rated for time and performance. 35 Remuneration Report (audited) continued 6.1 Directors’ and executive officers’ remuneration The remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for key management personnel (KMP) who are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the group, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise).

Following 28 February 2020, and as announced to the ASX on 2 March 2020, the group started purchasing products directly from suppliers and now pays WAPL a 6% management / services fee for coordination of the purchasing and logistics function provided by WAPL under a service agreement between Cellnet Group Limited, Cellnet Limited and WAPL. During the 2020 financial year the group obtained an independent expert’s report concluding that the transactions with WAPL prior to 27 February 2020 were fair and reasonable, and the purchasing arrangements prior to that date were ratified by the shareholders of Cellnet Group Limited at a general meeting held on 26 June 2020. The total value of transactions with WAPL under these arrangements during the 2021 financial year was $840,000 (2020: $5,764,000). At 30 June 2021, the group had a total of $9,000 owing to WAPL in respect of these arrangements (2020: $5,000). Wentronic GmbH At 30 June 2021, the group had a receivable from Wentronic GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of Wentronic Holdings Gmbh, of $9,000 (2020: $nil), arising from expense recharging arrangements. Remuneration Report (audited) Joint venture with entity with ultimate control over the group During the year 2020 financial year, the group made loan contributions of $26,000 to Wentronic International Pty Ltd, being a joint venture between the group and its controlling shareholder Wentronic Holding GmbH. The group held a 49% interest in this entity and the investment was equity accounted for on the group’s balance sheet. The joint venture was dissolved during the 2020 financial year. The group’s share of losses of the joint venture for the year ended 30 June 2020 was $6,702. An impairment charge of $454,000 was recognised in profit and loss for the year ended 30 June 2020 on write-off of loans extended to the joint venture on its dissolution. 37 Remuneration Report (audited) continued Option/right holdings: The tables below details the number of options or rights over ordinary shares in the company held by directors, KMP or their related parties: No. Held at 1/7/2020 - - - - - 425,000 425,000 No. Held at 1/7/2019 - - - - - 500,000 425,000 425,000 No. Granted No. forfeited No. Exercised 5,000,000 - 5,000,000 5,000,000 - - - - - - - - (425,000) (425,000) (5,000,000) - - (5,000,000) - - - No. Granted No. Lapsed No. Exercised - - - - - - - - - - - - - (500,000) - - - - - - - - - - No. Held at 30/6/2021 - - No. Vested & Exercisable - - 5,000,000 5,000,000 - - - - - - - - No. Held at 30/6/2020 - No. Vested & Exercisable - - - - - - 425,000 425,000 - - - - - - - 2021 Director/KMP M.

Corporate Information Cellnet Group Limited (the ‘Company’) is a company limited by shares and incorporated in Australia. The consolidated financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘group’ or the ‘consolidated entity’). The company is a for-profit entity for the purpose or preparing these financial statements. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company. The financial report was authorised for issue by the Directors on 25th August 2021. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the group are described in the directors’ report. 2. Significant accounting policies (a) Basis of preparation The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The consolidated financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and has been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments and contingent consideration liabilities which are measured at fair value. (Rounding The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations in Financial/Directors’ Report) Instrument 2016/191 dated 1 April 2016 and in accordance with that Instrument, amounts in the financial report and directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated. 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 46 only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Refer to note 2(v) for further information on the critical accounting estimates and judgements made in the preparation of these financial statements. The financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. (b) New accounting standards and interpretations (i) Application of new accounting standards No new or revised accounting standards considered as having a material effect on the group have become effective for the first time in preparing this financial report. (ii) Accounting standards issued but not yet effective and interpretations The AASB has issued a number of new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods, some of which are relevant to the group. The group has decided not to early adopt any of these new and amended pronouncements. The directors have assessed that none of these standards will have a material impact on the group’s financial statements in the period of initial application. (iii) IFRIC final agenda decisions not yet adopted the issued a In April 2021, International Financial Reporting Standards Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) final agenda decision, Configuration or customisation costs in a cloud computing arrangement. The decision discusses customisation whether expenditure to cloud computing arrangements is able to be recognised as an intangible asset and if not, over what time period the expenditure is expensed. configuration relating or The group’s accounting policy has historically been to capitalise all costs related to cloud computing arrangements as intangible assets in the consolidated statement of financial position. The adoption of this agenda decision could result in a reclassification Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Financial Report prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full. Intra-group balances and any unrealised gains and losses or income and expenses arising from intra- group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. (d) Foreign currency (i) Functional and presentation currency Both the functional and presentation currency of Cellnet Group Limited and its Australian subsidiaries are Australian dollars ($). The group has subsidiaries with functional currencies of New Zealand dollars and United States dollars. The results of these subsidiaries which are translated to the presentation currency as described in (iii) below. (ii) Transactions and balances Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance date are translated to Australian dollars at the foreign exchange rate ruling at reporting date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in net income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.. (iii) Financial statements of foreign operations The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to Australian dollars at foreign exchange rates ruling at the balance date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Australian dollars at rates approximating rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are foreign exchange the 47 of these intangible assets to either a prepaid asset in the consolidated statement of financial position and/or recognition as an expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, impacting both the current and/or prior periods presented. As at 30 June 2021: • • The group has not adopted this IFRIC agenda decision. The impact of the change is not reasonably estimable as the group has yet to complete its assessment of the impact of the IFRIC agenda decision. The group expects to adopt this IFRIC agenda decision in its half-year financial statements as at and for the half-year ended 31 December 2021. Intangible assets relating to cloud computing arrangements with a written down value of $0.922m have been capitalised on the consolidated statement of financial position and are subject to this detailed assessment. total amortisation The group expenditure of $0.121m in respect of these assets for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (2020: $0.119m) and capital additions to these assets during the year totalled $0.159m (2020: $0.024m). recognised • The group’s preliminary analysis indicates that the impact may be material The group has had regard to ASIC media release 21-129MR ASIC highlights focus areas for 30 June 2021 financial reports under COVID-19 conditions in making the above disclosures (c) Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Cellnet Group Ltd and its subsidiaries (as outlined in note 25) as at and for the year ended 30 June each year (the group or the consolidated entity). Interests in associates are equity accounted and are not part of the group. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the group has control. The group controls an entity where it has power over the entity, exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity, and for which it has the ability to use its power over the entity to affect the amount of its returns. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are Notes to the financial statements 2. Significant accounting policies continued recognised directly in a separate component of equity. payable to customers in relation to sales made until the end of the reporting period. In addition, products sold by the group carry a right of return. A refund liability (included in trade and other payables) and a right to returned goods asset (other current assets in the statement of financial position) are recognised for the products expected to be returned. Accumulated experience is used to estimate such returns at the time of sale at an operating segment level (expected value method). Because the percentage of sales returns has been steady for a number of years, it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The validity of this assumption and the estimated amount of returns are reassessed at each reporting date. Sales are made with credit terms of 60 days or less; as such no element of financing is deemed present in sales of goods made to customers. The group does not generally receive funds in advance of providing goods nor provide goods in advance of contractual entitlement to invoice the customer. Disaggregation of revenue The group’s sole material source of revenue is the sale of goods to customers. The nature of contracts with customers for sale of goods is consistent across the group. Required disaggregation disclosures under AASB 15 are made within note 5. (g) Financial instruments (i) Financial assets Initial recognition and measurement Financial assets within the scope of AASB 9 Financial Instruments are classified as at amortised cost, at fair value through profit and loss, or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The group determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition. (e) Business combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, measured at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination the group elects whether it measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition costs incurred are expensed and included in administrative expenses. When the group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through profit or loss. (f) Revenue from contracts with customers Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point in time when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer. Products are typically sold with an attaching contractual or constructive entitlement to rebates and other incentive arrangements. As such, revenue from the sale of goods is recognised based on the price specified in the contract (i.e. the gross sale price) net of the estimated rebates and incentives. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for the rebates and incentives, using the expected value method, and revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. A refund liability (included in trade and other payables) is recognised for expected rebates and incentives 48 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Financial Report All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus transaction costs, except in the case of financial assets recorded at fair value through the profit or loss, on the basis of both the group’s business model for managing the financial assets, and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. The group’s financial assets include cash and short-term deposits (amortised cost), trade and other receivables (amortised cost), and derivative financial instruments (fair value through profit and loss). (ii) Financial liabilities Initial recognition and measurement Financial liabilities within the scope of AASB 9 Financial Instruments are classified as at amortised cost, at fair value through profit and loss, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments as appropriate. The group determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair values plus, in the case of loans and borrowings, directly attributable transaction costs. The group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables (amortised cost), and contingent consideration payable (fair value through profit and loss). Derecognition A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. (iii) Fair value of financial instruments Information regarding fair value measurements made by the group is included in note 4. (h) Receivables Receivables from contracts with customers, loans, and other receivables are stated at their amortised cost less allowances for expected credit losses. Receivables from contracts with customers are recognised at the time the goods are delivered to the customer, as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due. Other receivables are recognised when the entity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the asset. The group applies the simplified expected credit loss model prescribed in AASB 9 to determine an allowance for expected credit losses on its receivables from contracts with customers and its other receivables. Under this approach, the lifetime expected credit losses are estimated using a provision matrix based on historical rates of losses observed on similar assets, as adjusted for the group’s forecasts of future economic conditions The measurement of expected credit losses reflects the group’s ‘expected rate of loss’, which is a product of the probability of default and the loss given default, and its ‘exposure at default’, which is typically the carrying amount of the relevant asset. In determining the allowance for expected credit losses, the group has consideration to expected recoveries through collateral or trade credit insurance arrangements. The group has identified contractual payments more than 90 days past due as default events for the purpose of measuring expected credit losses. These default events have been selected based on the company’s historical experience. Receivables are written off when they exceed 150 days past due and have been submitted to the group’s trade credit insurer for processing. 49 Notes to the financial statements 2. Significant accounting policies continued (i) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. Cost is calculated using the average cost method and includes direct and allocated costs incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their present location and condition. A provision is recognised when there is objective evidence that the group will not be able to sell the inventory at normal reseller pricing. (j) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise of cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with a maturity of 60 days or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risks of change in values. (l) Intangible assets (i) Goodwill Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost of the business combination being the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. (ii) Other intangible assets Other intangible assets that are acquired by the group are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation (see below) and impairment losses (see accounting policy (m)). The group’s other intangible assets represent software assets purchased by the entity or developed by a third party, and customer and supplier relationships acquired combination transactions. business through (k) Property, plant and equipment (iii) Subsequent expenditure on expenditure Subsequent capitalised intangible assets is capitalised only when future economic benefits increases the it embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred. (iv) Amortisation Amortisation is charged to net income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets unless such lives are indefinite. Goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are systematically tested for impairment at each balance date. Other intangible assets are amortised from the date they are available for use over their estimated useful lives. impairment Items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and losses (see accounting policy (m)). Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment. Depreciation is charged to net income on a straight- line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. The estimated useful lives in the current and comparative periods are as follows: Leasehold improvements 3–5 years Plant and equipment 2–3 years The residual value, useful life and depreciation method applied to an asset are reassessed at least annually. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. 50 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Financial Report (m) Impairment (n) Trade and other payables The carrying amounts of the group’s property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed at each balance date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated (see below). intangible assets that have an For goodwill, indefinite useful life and intangible assets that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated at each balance date. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in net income. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash- generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to cash- generating units (group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro-rata basis. Calculation of recoverable amount The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets is the greater of their fair value less costs to sell or value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash- generating unit to which the asset relates. Impairment losses, other than in respect of goodwill, are reversed when there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there has been a change in the estimate used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Trade and other payables are stated at their amortised cost. Trade payables are non-interest bearing and are normally settled on average between 30 day and 45 day terms. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. (o) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value of the consideration received less related transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost applying the effective interest method. (p) Provisions and employee leave benefits (i) 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 an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in net income net of any reimbursement. Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the balance date using a discounted cash flow methodology. The risks specific to the provision are factored into the cash flows and as such a risk-free government bond rate relative to the expected life of the provision is used as a discount rate. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. 51 Notes to the financial statements 2. Significant accounting policies continued (ii) Long-term service benefits (s) Leases The group’s net obligation in respect of long- term service benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The obligation is calculated using expected future increases in wage and salary rates including related on-costs and expected settlement dates, and is discounted using the rates attached to high quality corporate bonds at the balance date which have maturity dates approximating the terms of the group’s obligations. (iii) Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave that are expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date represent present obligations resulting from employees’ services provided to reporting date, and are calculated using undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the group expects to pay as at reporting date including related on-costs, such as worker’s remuneration insurance and payroll tax. Amounts not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months are carried at a net present value determined in the same manner as long service leave benefits described in note 2(m) (ii). Expenses for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable. (q) Share based payment transactions The group provides incentives to KMP in the form of share based payments. There are currently share based payment plans in place for the KMP. The cost of share based payments with KMP is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instrument at the date at which they are granted (refer note 21 for further details). (r) Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. 52 Leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the group. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments: • • • • • Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable Variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate Amounts expected to be payable by the group under residual value guarantees The exercise price of a purchase option if the group is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the group exercising that option. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be determined, the group’s incremental rate of borrowing is used, being the rate that the group would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with similar terms and conditions. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: • • • • The amount of the initial measurement of lease liability Any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received Any initial direct costs, and Restoration costs Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture. (t) Income tax Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the current period’s taxable income. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is provided using the statement of financial position method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for - initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date. A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. Financial Report Tax consolidation The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident subsidiaries have formed a tax-consolidated entity with effect from 1 July 2003 and are therefore taxed as a single entity from that date. The head entity within the tax-consolidated entity is Cellnet Group Limited. Current tax expense/income, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the members of the tax-consolidated entity are recognised in the separate financial statements of the members of the tax-consolidated entity using the ‘separate taxpayer’ within the consolidated entity approach. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured by reference to the carrying amounts in the separate financial statements of each entity and the tax values applied under tax consolidation. Any current tax liabilities (or assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses or unused tax credits of the subsidiaries are assumed by the head entity in the tax consolidated entity and are recognised as amounts payable / (receivable) to / (from) other entities in the tax-consolidated entity in conjunction with any tax funding arrangement amounts (refer below). Any difference between these amounts is recognised by the Company as an equity contribution or distribution. The Company recognises deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits of the tax-consolidated entity to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits of the tax-consolidated entity will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Any subsequent period adjustments to deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits as a result of revised assessments of the probability of recoverability are recognised by the head entity only. The head entity, in conjunction with other members of the tax-consolidated entity, has entered into a tax funding arrangement which sets out the funding obligations of members of the tax-consolidated entity in respect of tax amounts. The tax funding arrangements require payments to / (from) the head entity equal to the current tax liability / (asset) 53 Notes to the financial statements 2. Significant accounting policies continued assumed by the head entity and any tax-loss or tax credit related deferred tax asset assumed by the head entity, resulting in the head entity recognising an inter-entity payable / (receivable) equal in amount to the tax liability / (asset) assumed. The inter-entity payable / (receivable) is at call. Contributions to fund the current tax liabilities are payable as per the tax funding arrangement and reflect the timing of the head entity’s obligation to make payments for tax liabilities to the relevant tax authorities. (u) Goods and services tax Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the relevant taxation authority is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the relevant taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows. (v) Critical accounting estimates and judgements Management discusses with the Audit Committee the development, selection and disclosure of the group’s critical accounting judgements and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates. The estimates and judgements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. 54 Revenue recognition As described in note 2(f) revenue is recognised net of expected sales returns, incentives and rebates offered to customers. Management applies the expected value method in making estimates of the amounts of incentives and rebates outstanding and the value of expected returns (including any associated right to returned goods asset) as at balance date based on customer trading and claim history, the terms of underlying contractual arrangements, and historical rates of product return. Such estimates involve the use of management’s judgement and the actual amount of incentives and rebates settled, and products returned, may vary from the amounts accrued at balance date. Valuation of consideration paid and net assets acquired in business combinations Consideration paid and net assets acquired in business combination transactions are recognised at their acquisition date fair values, as outlined in Note 23 (net assets acquired) and Note 4 (fair value of contingent consideration). The most significant judgements and assumptions are made in determining the fair value of identifiable intangible assets relationships) and contingent consideration payable. These assumptions include forecast cash flows (including growth rates), probability weightings applied to different earn-out scenarios, customer and supplier attrition rates, contributory asset charges and discount rates. (customer and supplier Impairment assessment for cash-generating units containing goodwill The group completes an impairment assessment on cash-generating units to which goodwill is allocated on an annual basis, or otherwise where there are indicators that CGU assets may be impaired. This assessment involves comparison of the value-in- use of a cash-generating unit to its carrying value. There are a number of assumptions made in the determination of value-in-use, which are outlined in detail in note 14(b). Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Financial Report Impairment losses for stock on hand Expected credit loss allowances on trade receivables The group’s inventory is exposed to a risk of obsolescence. A provision for obsolescence is raised where there is evidence suggesting that the net realisable value of inventory is less than its cost to the group. Management relies on inventory ageing data, days stock on hand (based on recent sales data), and future sales forecasts in determining the required provision against inventory at an individual product level. Note 7 discloses the amount of stock which has been scrapped throughout the course of the year, or which has been written down to net realisable value in accordance with the policy outlined in note 2 (i). Share based payments The group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by management using a binomial model. The related assumptions are detailed in note 21. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments will have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, or on profit or loss, within the next annual reporting period. Recovery of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for tax losses and deductible temporary differences to the extent that management considers that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise temporary differences and recognised tax losses. Where the group has made a taxable loss in the current or preceding year, a deferred tax asset for carry forward tax losses is only recognised to the extent that there is convincing other evidence that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the recognised unused tax losses can be utilised. Significant judgement was required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the probability weighted forecasts of future taxable profits over the next three years. The group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses on its trade receivables. The basis for determination of this allowance is as described in note 2(h). There are a number of assumptions made in the determination of the allowance for expected credit losses, which are outlined in detail in note 11. (w) Earnings per share The group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. Potential ordinary shares shall be treated as dilutive when their conversion to ordinary shares would decrease earnings per share or increase loss per share from continuing operations (x) Government grants Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable certainty that the grant will be received and all grant conditions are met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant to the costs they are compensating. Grants relating to depreciable assets are credited to deferred income and are recognised in profit or loss over the period and in the proportions in which depreciation expense on those assets is recognised. Government grants include amounts received or receivable under the Australian Federal Government’s JobKeeper Payment Scheme, and the New Zealand Federal Government’s Job Subsidy Scheme, which provides a temporary subsidy to eligible businesses significantly affected by coronavirus (COVID-19). Wage subsidies received have been offset against the related employee benefits expense in the statement of comprehensive income. The amount of these subsidies received during the year has been disclosed in note 7. 55 Notes to the financial statements 3. Financial risk management objectives and policies 3. Financial risk management objectives and policies The group’s principal financial instruments comprise of receivables, payables, cash and short-term deposits, interest bearing loans, lease liabilities and forward foreign currency contracts. Risk exposures and responses The group manages its exposure to key financial risks, including interest and currency risk in accordance with the group’s financial risk management policy. The objective of this policy is to support the delivery of the group’s financial targets whilst protecting future financial security. The group enters into derivative transactions, principally forward currency exchange contracts. The purpose is to manage the currency risks arising from the group’s operations. The main risks arising from the group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange risk and assessment of market forecasts for interest rate and foreign exchange prices. Ageing analysis and monitoring of specific credit allowances are undertaken to manage credit risk. Liquidity risk is monitored through using future rolling cash flow forecasts. Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Audit & Risk Committees under the authority of the Board. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of the risks identified below, including the setting of limits for forward currency contracts, credit allowances and future cash flow forecast projections. Interest rate risk The group’s exposure to market interest rates relates solely to the group’s short-term cash deposits and interest bearing loans and borrowings as disclosed in note 10 and 17. Cash and cash equivalents Interest bearing loans and borrowings Note 10 17 2021 $000 6,999 2020 $000 6,936 (8,359) (10,292) (1,360) (3,356) The group frequently analyses its interest rate exposure. Within this analysis consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions, alternative hedging positions and the mix of fixed and variable interest rates. The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the reporting date. At 30 June 2021, if interest rates had moved as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit and net assets would have been affected as follows: Post tax profit higher/(lower) Net assets higher/(lower) 2021 $000 2020 $000 2021 $000 2020 $000 (10) (23) (10) (23) 5 12 5 12 Consolidated +1% (100 basis points) (2020: 1%) -0.5% (50 basis points) (2020: 0.5%) The movements in profit are due to higher / lower cash receipts / payments from variable rate net interest bearing balances. 56 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Foreign currency risk The group is exposed to foreign currency risk on sales and purchases that are denominated in a currency other than Australian dollars. The currencies giving rise to risk are primarily U.S dollars and New Zealand dollars. The group enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge certain anticipated purchase commitments in foreign currencies (principally U.S denominated dollars). The terms of these commitments are no more than 45 days. It is the group’s policy not to enter into forward contracts until a firm commitment is in place. The group has subsidiaries with function currencies of New Zealand and United States dollars. There are currently no hedges in place to mitigate the foreign currency risk for these subsidiaries. into forward Entering foreign currency exchange contracts minimises the risk of sharp fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and allows for better cash flow management in relation to paying international suppliers. At balance date, the group had the following exposure to US$ foreign currency that is not designated as cash flow hedges: 2021 2020 USD $000 USD $000 98 98 244 244 Financial assets Trade and other receivables Financial liabilities Trade and other payables (2,359) (1,608) Forward foreign currency contracts* Net exposure (118) (3,949) (2,477) (2,379) (5,557) (5,313) *Denotes the amount of USD to be exchanged at the forward exchange rate. Financial Report At 30 June 2021, had the Australian dollar moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit and other comprehensive income would have been affected as follows: Post tax profit higher/(lower) 2021 $000 2020 $000 Net assets higher/(lower) 2021 $000 2020 $000 206 579 206 579 (251) (707) (251) (707 Consolidated AUD / USD +10% (2020: +10%) AUD / USD -10% (2020: -10%) Significant assumptions: - The reasonably possible movement was calculated by taking the USD spot rate as at balance date, moving the spot rate by the reasonably possible movements and then re-converting the USD into AUD with the ‘new spot rate’. This amount was then tax effected. This methodology reflects the translation methodology undertaken by the group. Credit Risk Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties failed to perform as contracted. The maximum exposure to credit risk on financial assets of the group is the carrying amount, net of any allowance for expected credit losses, as disclosed in the maturity analysis table below. The group mitigates this risk by adopting procedures whereby it only deals with creditworthy customers. Wherever possible the group also insures debtors that have an approved credit limit of greater than $5,000 through trade credit insurance. Where possible trade receivables that are greater than $5,000 are insured up to 90% of the approved credit limit, with a $5,000 excess payable per claim. Details regarding the determination of the allowance for expected credit losses are contained in note 11(a). Liquidity risk Liquidity risk arises from both the financial liabilities and lease liabilities of the group and the group’s subsequent ability to meet its obligations to repay its financial liabilities as and when they fall due. The group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of at cash funding and short-term fixed cash deposits. The group manages its liquidity risk by monitoring the total cash inflows and outflows expected on a daily basis. 57 Notes to the financial statements 3.

Fair Value Measurement The fair values together with the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities shown in the statement of financial position are outlined in the table below. For short term trade receivables and payables with a maturity date of less than one year, the carrying amount, as adjusted for any allowances for impairment, is deemed to reflect the fair value. 2021 2020 Note Carrying amount $000 Fair value $000 Carrying amount $000 Fair value $000 Amortised cost Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Trade and other payables Borrowings Fair value through profit or loss Contingent consideration payable Derivative financial instruments 10 11 15 17 15 18 6,999 13,161 (10,073) (8,359) - - 6,699 13,161 (10,073) (8,359) - - 1,728 1,728 6,936 15,027 (11,905) (10,292) 495 37 (197) 6,936 15,027 (11,905) (10,292) 495 37 (197) Fair value hierarchy Outlined below are the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities that are recognised and measured at fair value. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the group has classified its assets and liabilities into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards, as follows: Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. That is, all valuation inputs are observable. Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. The only balances on the group’s balance sheet which is measured at fair value are forward foreign exchange contracts (refer note 18), and contingent consideration payable (refer note 15). The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Such fair value measurement is included in level 2, as it is based on an observable input. surrounding expectations The fair value of contingent consideration is calculated based on a probability weighted assessment of the management’s performance targets outlined below. Key inputs into the valuation factors which are determined based on forecast future cash flows and margins, which are unobservable (Level 3 inputs). Details of the assumptions made in valuing contingent consideration liabilities in respect of business combinations described in note 23 are as follows: include scenario probability 59 Notes to the financial statements 4. Fair Value Measurement continued PowerGuard Performance Distribution Contingent consideration consisted of contractual earn- out arrangements based on the financial performance of the Powerguard business over the FY20 and FY21 financial years. These arrangements granted the vendor an entitlement to 25% of the gross profit generated above a gross profit floor of $600,000 per financial year. At the conclusion of the earn-out period, being 30 June 2021, the group has assessed that the earn-out targets as described above have not been met and the liability has been valued at $nil as at 30 June 2021, resulting in a gain on remeasurement of the contingent liability in the current financial year of $131,000, being the value of the contingent consideration liability recognised as at the comparative balance date of 30 June 2020. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability at both the acquisition date and at 30 June 2020 was $131,000. This amount was prepaid at the acquisition date and was recognised as both a liability and prepayment at 30 June 2020. The valuation of contingent consideration allowed for gross profit margins of $0.8m and $1m respectively for the FY20 and FY21 earn-out periods. At 30 June 2020 it was estimated that reasonably possible changes in these assumptions may result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability of up to $131,000. Contingent consideration consisted of contractual earn- out arrangements amounting to 35% of net profit before tax generated by the acquired business for a three year period subsequent to the acquisition date of 1 April 2020. On 18 March 2021, the group entered into an agreement with the former owner of the Performance Distribution business whereby a payment of $100,000 was made by the group in full and final settlement of any future contingent consideration liability payable under the business acquisition agreement. As a result of this liability arrangement, the contingent consideration has been derecognised and a gain on settlement of the liability amounting to $264,000 has been recorded in profit and loss. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability at both the acquisition date and at 30 June 2020 was $364,000, which allowed for net profit before tax over the earn-out period of $1.115m, discounted at a rate of 4.5%. At 30 June 2020 it was estimated that reasonably possible changes in these assumptions may result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability by $73,000. 60 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Financial Report 5. Operating segments Identification of reportable segments An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker (the Chief Executive Officer) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. Operating segments are identified by management based on the manner in which products are sold. The group has identified three operating segments, being Cellnet Australia, Cellnet New Zealand, and Turn Left Distribution. The Cellnet Australia and Cellnet New Zealand operating segments are aggregated into the one reportable segment (Cellnet), based on the similar economic characteristics that exist between these two segments, and similarities in the nature of products, type and class of customer for these products, distributions regulatory similar economic and methods and environments in Australia and New Zealand.

To measure the expected credit losses, receivables from contracts with customers have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles for sales over a 4-5 year period prior to 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020 respectively, and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward looking macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of customers to settle the receivables. The group has identified retail trade industry output growth and retail sector gross margin trends as the most relevant factors, and accordingly adjusts the historical loss rates based on expected changes in these factors. 65 Notes to the financial statements 11.

Where indicators of impairment are present for other CGUs, these CGUs are also tested for impairment. As the carrying value of the group’s net assets exceeds its market capitalisation, the group recorded a loss for the year, and operations continue to be affected to varying degrees by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on consumer demand, impairment indicators are deemed to be present for each CGU within the group at balance date and each has been tested for impairment. The recoverable amount of each CGU has been determined as its value-in-use. Value-in- use is determined as the present value of future CGU cash flows. In calculating value-in-use, the group has projected cash flows over a 5 year period, based on the board approved budget/forecast for FY22. The results of the impairment assessments completed indicated that value-in-use of each CGU exceeds the CGU carrying value. The table below summarises the key assumptions applied in testing CGUs for impairment: 2021 Cash-Generating Unit Cellnet Australia Cellnet New Zealand Turn Left Distribution Cellnet Online Goodwill allocated to CGU ($’000) 481 - 1,946 427 EBITDA ($’000) 2,907 1,736 1,296 10 Average Annual Revenue growth Terminal growth Pre-tax discount % 3% 2% 3% 16% % 2% 2% 2% 2% % 16% 16% 16% 16% For the Cellnet Australia, Cellnet New Zealand, and Turn Left Distribution CGUs, the following reasonably possible changes in the EBITDA assumption would have resulted in an impairment charge being recognised at 30 June 2020: 2021 Cash-Generating Unit Cellnet Australia Cellnet New Zealand Turn Left Distribution Change in EBITDA Required for Impairment ($’000) (150) (155) (54) Further, an increase in the discount rate applied for the Cellnet Australia CGU by 70 basis points would have resulted in an impairment charge being recognised for this CGU at 30 June 2021. No reasonably possible change in any of the assumptions above for the New Zealand CGU would result in an impairment of the carrying value of this CGU at 30 June 2021.

Reserve for own shares The reserve for own shares represents the cost of shares held by an equity remuneration plan that the group is required to include in the financial report. At 30 June 2021 the group held 18,209 of the Company’s shares (2020: 18,209). This reserve will be reversed against share capital when the underlying shares are exercised under performance rights. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the group’s own equity instrument. Reserve for profit Profits are transferred to the reserve for profits to facilitate future franked dividend payments in accordance with Australian taxation requirements for franked dividend payments to be sourced from profits.

The group held a 49% interest in this entity and the investment was equity accounted for on the group’s balance sheet. The joint venture was dissolved during the 2020 financial year. The group’s share of losses of the joint venture for the year ended 30 June 2020 was $6,702. An impairment charge of $454,000 was recognised in profit and loss for the year ended 30 June 2020 (refer note 7) on write-off of loans extended to the joint venture on its dissolution. 26. Subsequent events There are no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the financial year which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the group in future periods. 79 Entity with ultimate control over the group Wentronic Holding GmbH and its associated entities holds 53.45% (2020: 54.64%) of the ordinary shares in Cellnet Group Limited. At 30 June 2021, the group had a receivable from Wentronic Holding GmbH of $92,000 (2020: $nil). Transactions with entities under common control Wentronic Asia Pacific Limited During the 2021 and 2020 financial years, the group enlisted the services of, or otherwise purchased inventory from, Wentronic Asia Pacific Limited (WAPL). WAPL is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wentronic Holding GmbH, Cellnet’s controlling shareholder. A function of WAPL is to source and purchase inventory through bulk buying arrangements with third party suppliers on behalf of the Wentronic Group. Prior to 27 February 2020, WAPL sold inventory to the group at cost price plus a fee to cover WAPL’s operating costs. The fee paid was approximately 9% of the gross amount of purchases paid in United States Dollars. Following 28 February 2020, and as announced to the ASX on 2 March 2020, the group started purchasing products directly from suppliers and now pays WAPL a 6% management / services fee for coordination of the purchasing and logistics function provided by WAPL under a service agreement between Cellnet Group Limited, Cellnet Limited and WAPL. During the 2020 financial year the group obtained an independent expert’s report concluding that the transactions with WAPL prior to 27 February 2020 were fair and reasonable, and the purchasing arrangements prior to that date were ratified by the group’s shareholders at a general meeting held on 26 June 2020. The total value of transactions with WAPL under these arrangements during the 2021 financial year was $840,000 (2020: $5,764,000). At 30 June 2021, the group had a total of $9,000 owing to WAPL in respect of these arrangements (2020: $5,000). Wentronic GmbH At 30 June 2021, the group had a receivable from Wentronic GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of Wentronic Holdings Gmbh, of $9,000 (2020: $nil), arising from expense recharging arrangements.

On behalf of the Board Tony Pearson Chairman Brisbane 25th August 2021 82 Cellnet Group Limited and its consolidated entities Financial Report 2020–21 Independent Auditor’s Report Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Cellnet Group Limited Report on the Audit of the Financial Report Opinion We have audited the financial report of Cellnet Group Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes to the financial statements including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration. In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2021 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and (b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) “the Code” that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the Directors as at the time of this auditor’s report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. 83 Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Impairment testing for non-current assets Refer to note 14 Intangible assets and note 2(v) Critical accounting estimates and judgements Impairment testing for goodwill is required to be completed annually under Australian Accounting Standard AASB 136 Impairment of Assets. This standard also requires impairment testing to be conducted for other non-current assets where there is an indicator that those assets may be impaired. At the reporting date the carrying value of the Group’s net assets exceeded the Group’s market capitalisation, which is an indicator that non-current assets may be impaired. Certain cash-generating units (CGUs) with the Group also performed below budget expectations for the year, with operations continuing to be impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, with these results also considered an indicator of potential impairment within those CGUs. Impairment testing for non-current assets is a key audit matter due to the high degree of management estimation and assumptions (as disclosed in notes 2(v) and 14) made by the Group, specifically those relating to EBITDA, average annual revenue growth rate, discount rates and terminal growth rates used in the determination of discounted cash flows. Our procedures included, amongst others: • Understanding and evaluating the design and implementation of the relevant controls over impairment of non-current assets; • Assessing management’s determination of the Group’s CGUs based on our understanding of the nature of the Group’s business and the identifiable groups of cash generating assets; • Comparing the cash flow forecasts used in the value-in- use calculation to Board approved budgets for the 2022 financial year; • Evaluating whether the forecasts used in value-in-use calculations include reasonable expectations regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the business over the forecast period; • Checking the mathematical accuracy of the impairment testing model and its consistency with the requirements of AASB 136; • Assessing the reasonableness of significant estimates and assumptions used for the impairment assessment, in particular, those relating to the EBITDA, average annual revenue growth rate, discount rate and terminal growth rates used in the cash flow forecasts; • Evaluating the impact of sensitivities in respect of reasonable changes to forecast cash flows, discount rates, and growth rates used in management’s impairment testing calculations; and • Assessing the adequacy of disclosures. Recoverability of deferred tax assets Refer to note 8 Income tax and note 2(v) Critical accounting estimates and judgements At 30 June 2021, the Group has a total of $2.815m of deferred tax assets recognised on its balance sheet. Australian Accounting Standards require deferred tax assets to be recognised to the extent that it is probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be generated in order for the benefits of the deferred tax assets to be realised. These benefits are realised by reducing tax payable on future taxable profits. Recoverability of deferred tax assets is a key audit matter due to the high degree of estimation and assumptions (as disclosed in notes 2(v) and 8) made by the Group concerning forecast taxable profits. Our procedures included, amongst others: • Understanding and evaluating the design and implementation of the relevant controls in place for assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets; • Obtaining management’s forecast of taxable income for the next 3 years and agreeing the FY22 forecast to the latest Board approved budget; • Performing procedures over forecast information as outlined above in response to the key audit matter regarding impairment testing for non-current assets, noting that the same baseline forecasts for the Group’s CGUs are used in management’s assessment regarding recoverability of deferred tax assets; • Checking the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculation of forecast taxable profit; and • Assessing the adequacy of disclosures.

The valuation of inventory is a key audit matter for the following reasons: • Retailer demand continues to be subdued in some segments serviced by the Group in Australia and New Zealand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, with prevailing uncertainty in future consumer demand for these markets; • Uncertainty surrounding the availability of vendor support for obsolete stock; • A large portion of the Group’s inventory is considered to be at risk of obsolescence due to its attachment to electronic and telecommunications devices, such as smartphone handsets; Our procedures included, amongst others: • Understanding and evaluation of the design and implementation of the relevant controls over the determination of the provision for inventory obsolescence; • Evaluating the appropriateness of the Group’s obsolescence model, including the basis for obsolescence triggers and the percentage write-downs applied at each trigger point; • Confirming the methodology applied for providing for inventory obsolescence is consistent with that applied in previous reporting periods, adjusted where necessary for changes in assumptions based on actual and forecast demand; • Delays in the rollout of the Group’s online strategy. • Testing the net realisable value of a sample of inventory • Management judgements and assumptions applied in deriving the provision for obsolescence. As a result of the above conditions we considered valuation of inventory to be a key audit matter. items through subsequent sales transactions, and confirming results of this testing align with assumptions applied in the obsolescence model; • Performing trend analysis of changes in the obsolescence provision by product over the past 12 months, and confirming trends correlate with age of related product technology; • Vouching vendor funding commitments obtained to documented agreement of terms; and • Assessing the adequacy of disclosures. Revenue recognition – variable consideration Refer to note 2(v) Critical accounting estimates and judgements Revenue is recognised net of estimated incentives, rebates and expected returns as prescribed under AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Rebate and incentive arrangements offered by the Group vary and are customer specific. These obligations are established either in contract or through principal of constructive obligation based on customary business practice, and the associated refund liabilities are estimated based on past practice, sales volumes and customer claim history. The expected reversal of sales through customers exercising their right of return is estimated based on historical rates of return. Due to the variety of contractual terms with customers and the degree of management judgement involved, the estimation of variable consideration in respect of these items is considered to be complex. There is a risk that revenue could be misstated due to the level of estimation and judgement required in accounting for these obligations. As such, we considered revenue recognition to be a key audit matter. Our procedures included, amongst others: • Understanding and evaluation of the design and implementation of the relevant controls over the recognition of rebates, incentives and rights of return; • Evaluating the appropriateness of the Group’s revenue recognition accounting policies; • Assessing the accuracy of rebates and incentives recognised throughout the year based on the terms of underlying contractual or constructive obligations; • Recalculating the valuation of refund liabilities for outstanding rebates and incentives at year end, having regard to contractual arrangements in place and past practice, sales volumes, and customer claim history; • Assessing the calculation of the right of return liability and associated right to returned goods asset at year end, including testing the accuracy of the historical rate of return applied and the valuation of the right to returned goods asset; and • Assessing the adequacy of disclosures.

The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors 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 preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our Pitcher Partners is an association of independent firms.

Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on the Remuneration Report Opinion on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included on pages 8 to 18 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2021. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Cellnet Group Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2021, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Responsibilities 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.
