Chapter name hereChairman’s Letter
I am pleased to report, that over the past year JCurve Solutions Limited has
continued to strengthen its financial position and achieved solid financial results
whilst diversifying operations with a view to delivering medium to long term
growth in shareholder value.

• Rapidly grow our Asia operations;
• Grow our Oracle NetSuite ERP practice in Australia; and
• Grow our Riyo business at a faster pace.
1. Rapidly grow our Asia operations
We have assessed particularly strong overall growth
opportunities within the Asian market for our portfolio
of solutions which will complement anticipated growth
from our Australian operations. The Company assessed
that the quickest way to kick start our growth in Asia was
through the acquisition of an existing NetSuite partner.
In December 2018 the Company was successful in
completing the purchase of the business and assets of
the Spectrum Partner Group, a NetSuite Two-Star Solution
Group operations. In addition to the direct employment
of the resources from a third-party service outsourced
arrangement, a number of employees have been, and
will be, directly recruited into the JCurve Solutions
Philippines team.
In addition to expanding our Oracle NetSuite solution
offering, we are exploring other M&A opportunities
in Asia related to the acquisition of Product IP. These
opportunities are in line with our overall diversification
strategy and the relocation of the JCS CEO, Stephen
Canning, to Singapore from the start of August 2019, will
provide further impetus to this strategic initiative.

Retirement, election and continuation in office of Directors
It is the Board’s policy to consider the appointment and retirement of Non-Executive Directors on a case-by-case basis. In
doing so, the Board must take into account the requirements of the Australian Securities Exchange Listing Rules and the
Corporations Act 2001.
Clause 13.4 of the JCurve Solutions Constitution allows the Directors to at any time appoint a person to be a Director,
either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, but so that the total number of Directors does
not at any time exceed the maximum number specified by the JCurve Solutions Constitution. Any Director so appointed
holds office only until the next following annual general meeting and is then eligible for re-election but shall not be taken
into account in determining the Directors who are to retire by rotation (if any) at that meeting. There have been no such
appointments during the year.
Clause 13.2 of the JCurve Solutions Constitution requires that no director who is not the Chief Executive Officer may hold
office without re-election beyond the third AGM following the meeting at which the director was last elected or re-elected.
The current board was re-elected by shareholders at the following prior AGMs:
• 2018: Mark Jobling;
• 2017: Bruce Hatchman;
• 2016: David Franks
Therefore, under Clause 13.4 of the Constitution, David Franks is due for election at the Next Annual General Meeting
under the noted time period.

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is

charter is included on the Company’s website.
3. Remuneration Structure
Executives are given the opportunity to receive their fixed
(primary) remuneration in a variety of forms including cash,
superannuation and fringe benefits. It is intended that the
manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient
without creating undue cost for the Group.
Each executive’s remuneration is reviewed annually by the
Nomination and Remuneration Committee. The process
consists of a review of relevant comparative remuneration
in the market, internally and, where appropriate, external
advice on policies and practices. The Nomination and
Remuneration committee has access to external,
independent advice if required.
In accordance with best practice Corporate Governance,
(ii) Short-term incentive
the structure of non-executive director and executive
remuneration is separate and distinct.
Non-executive director remuneration
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level
that provides JCurve Solutions with the ability to attract and
retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a
cost that is acceptable to shareholders.
JCurve Solutions’ constitution adopted at the AGM on
9 November 2010 specifies that the aggregate
remuneration of non-executive directors shall be a
maximum of $400,000 per year, and can be varied by
ordinary resolution of the shareholders in a General
Meeting. There have been no changes to the constitution
of JCurve Solutions since this date.
The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be
approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is
apportioned amongst directors is reviewed annually.
Non-executive directors are paid their director fees in cash,
including statutory superannuation contributions. They do
not receive any bonus payments nor are they entitled to
any payment upon retirement or resignation.
The Short-term incentive (STI) scheme is designed
to reward the Executive Management team for their
contribution to the success of JCurve Solutions in
achieving its financial goals, as well as the individual
contribution of each employee to business goals, as
determined by the Board.
For all members of the Executive Management Team
except the Sales Director, the FY2019 KPI targets for
the Short-term incentive plan were determined by the
Board based on a number of Key Result Areas (KRA’s)
which the Board believes will affect the performance
of JCurve Solutions during the financial year. The KRA’s

sales metrics, leadership metrics while depending on

and project delivery metrics are measured based on the

is measured from independently collated feedback scores
from employees and the Directors. The diversification

1. Accounting policy
Revenue recognition
The core principle of AASB 15 is that revenue is recognised
on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised goods
or services to customers at an amount that reflects the
consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange
for those goods or services. Revenue is recognised by
applying a five-step process outlined in AASB 15 which is
as follows:
Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer;
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
and determine at what point they are satisfied;
Step 3: Determine the transaction price;
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance
obligations;
The Group’s revenue recognition accounting policy is that:
• The performance obligation for the implemented ERP
software is satisfied when the ERP software has been
installed and is operating materially as contractually
required. Rather than recognising the contracted
revenue evenly over the contract period which ranges
from 12 to 60 months in the case of license revenue
or evenly over an implementation period for service
revenue (generally 2 to 3 months), under the new
accounting policy, both license and implementation
revenue for the contracted period is recognised at the
point in time when the ERP software has been installed
and is operating materially as contractually required;
• The performance obligation for providing ERP
software customers with technical support
is satisfied over the contracted period;
• The performance obligation for providing

The expected future Research and Development
incentive, for past qualifying Research and Development
expenditure is accrued as other income when it is
established that the conditions of the Research
and Development incentive have been met and
that the expected amount of the incentive can be
reliably measured.
2. Significant accounting judgments,
estimates and assumptions: Revenue
recognition
(i) Identification of performance obligations
The Group has determined that for new ERP software
sales, while licenses and implementation services are
quoted as separate line items and have separate list
prices they are not distinct performance obligations as
the customer is purchasing customisable ERP software
which requires not only the licenses to be provisioned
(ii) Satisfaction of performance obligations
The performance obligation for the implemented ERP
software is satisfied at the point in time when the ERP
software has been installed and is operating materially
as contractually required. It is when the customer has
full access to and control of the ERP software. The
performance obligation for providing ERP software
customers with technical support remains throughout the
contract period so is satisfied over the contract period.
The performance obligation for providing
Telecommunication Expense Management solutions
remains throughout the contract period so is satisfied

The performance obligation for the implemented Riyo
software is satisfied at the point in time when the Riyo

as contractually required. It is when the customer has
full access to and control of the Riyo software.

• when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods
and services is not recoverable from the taxation
authority, in which case the GST is recognised as
part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as
part of the expense item as applicable; and
• receivables and payables, which are stated
with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to,
the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or
payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
The balance of carried forward capital losses that have not
been recognised in the Financial Statements amount to
$572,640 (2018: $572,640 unrecognised). The deductible
temporary differences and tax losses do not expire under
current legislation. Deferred tax assets totaling $157,476
(2018: $157,476) have not been recognised in respect of
these items at this stage because it is not probable that
future capital gains will be available against which the
Group can utilise the benefits thereof.
There are no unrecognised deferred tax liabilities.
4. Tax Consolidation
JCurve Solutions and its 100% owned Australian resident
subsidiaries implemented the tax consolidation legislation
from 1 January 2014. The accounting policy for the
implementation of the tax consolidation legislation is set
out in note 5(1)(ii).

1. Accounting policy
Trade receivables, which generally have 30 day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an
allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An allowance for doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that
the Group will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified.
The Group adopted AASB 9 for the first time during the year ended 30 June 2019. The adoption of AASB 9 resulted in
credit losses being recognised in the allowance for doubtful debts under an expected credit loss (ECL) model. ECLs are
a probability weighted estimates of credit losses which are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls. The impact from adopting AASB 9 during the year
ended 30 June 2019 was an additional expense of $13,378 from assessing the lifetime expected credit losses based on the
history of past bad debts written off the Group after considering a provision matrix which grouped debtors into product
lines. The Group has not retrospectively adjusted the prior period comparative balances or opening balances on adoption
of AASB 9.
2. Allowance for doubtful debts reconciliation
At 30 June 2019, trade receivables of the Group with a nominal value of $71,952 (2018: $114,173) were impaired.
The allowance for doubtful debts was $71,952 (2018: $114,173). The movement in the allowance for doubtful debts is

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost
includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred.
(ii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets.
Leasehold improvements are amortised over the period of the lease or the estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter,
using the straight-line method. The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation and
amortisation:
• Plant and equipment: 2 – 14 years
• Leasehold improvements: 1 – 6 years
The assets’ residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each
financial year end.
(iii) De-recognition and disposal
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.
Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and
the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.

(i) Purchase of Spectrum
The licenses intangible asset reflects the carrying value of the unimpaired amount paid for the purchase of the exclusive
reseller agreement with NetSuite for the JCurve ERP edition of the NetSuite software. This Agreement with NetSuite
provides JCurve Solutions with the exclusive selling rights for the JCurve ERP edition of the NetSuite business software
for an indefinite period and was the basis on which Interfleet Pty Ltd immediately became a five star NetSuite partner on
becoming a NetSuite Solution Provider in August 2016. The agreement was the basis from which the Company has built
its ERP practice. The NetSuite JCurve ERP reseller agreement provides that in the event of cancellation of the Agreement,
the customers of JCurve would be assigned to NetSuite and NetSuite would be required to pay JCurve Solutions a royalty
of 30% of the future revenue stream to NetSuite for a 3-year period which along with an increasing level of license
commission and service revenue which is generated from the sale of NetSuite editions indicates that it is unlikely that
there will be an impairment in future periods.
Refer to Note 25 for further information on the acquisition of Spectrum.

3. Impairment testing of intangible assets
with indefinite lives
(i) Licenses – ERP
The licenses intangible asset reflects the carrying value of the
ERP relationship with Oracle NetSuite.
The recoverable amount of the Australian ERP practice has
been determined based on a value in use calculation using
cash flow projections covering a 5-year period. The discount
rate applied to the value in use calculations was 15%. A long
term growth rate of 4% has been assumed as has a terminal
value. Based on these value in use calculations, there is no
impairment for the year ended 30 June 2019 (2018: nil).
The carrying value of the NetSuite License remains
$2,302,857.
If the discount rate applied was 10% higher the recoverable
amount would decrease by $213,399 and if the discount
rate applied was 10% lower the recoverable amount would
increase by $231,785. If the long term growth rate projection
applied was 10% lower than the amount forecast, the
recoverable amount would decrease by $280,387 and if the
long term growth rate projection applied was 10% higher
the recoverable amount would increase by $282,297.
year ended 30 June 2019.
1. Accounting policy
(i) Intangible assets – Licenses and other
intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately or in a business
combination are initially measured at cost. The cost of
an intangible asset acquired in a business combination
is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following
initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost
less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated
impairment losses. Internally generated intangible
assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not
capitalised and expenditure is charged against profits in
the year in which the expenditure is incurred.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be
either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite
lives are amortised over the useful life and assessed
for impairment whenever there is an indication that the
intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period
and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a
finite useful life is reviewed at least at each financial year-
end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected
pattern of consumption of future economic benefits
embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the
amortisation period or method, as appropriate, which is a
change in accounting estimate. The amortisation expense
on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in
profit or loss in the expense category consistent with the
function of the intangible asset.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for
impairment annually either individually or at the cash-
generating unit level. Such intangibles are not amortised.
The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite life
is reviewed each reporting period to determine whether
indefinite life assessment continues to be supportable.
If not, the change in the useful life assessment from
indefinite to finite is accounted for as a change in an
accounting estimate and is thus accounted for on a
prospective basis.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. Accounting policy
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. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
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 the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income net of any reimbursement.
Provisions are measured at the present value or management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligation at the end of the reporting period.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the
risks specific to the liability. The current pre-tax rate used for discounting purposes is 12% (2018: 12.5%).
When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as an interest expense.

The Group provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Group in the form of share-based
payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity
instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using the Black-
Scholes model, further details of which are given in Note 24(i).
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to
the price of the shares of JCurve Solutions Limited (market conditions) if applicable.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in
which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become
fully entitled to the award (the vesting period).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the
extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that
will ultimately vest. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect
of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The Statement of Profit or Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at
the beginning and end of that period.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon
a market condition.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been
modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based
payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet
recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and
designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were
a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per
share (see Note 6).

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 an external valuer using a Black -
Scholes model, using the assumptions as detailed in the notes to the financial statements.
Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 18: Critical Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions
The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future
events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying
amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:
• Revenue recognition - Identification of performance obligations – refer to note 3;
• Revenue recognition – Satisfaction of performance obligations – refer to note 3;
• Impairment of intangibles with indefinite useful lives – refer to note 12;
• Useful life of the Riyo Platform - refer to note 12;
• Share-based payment transactions – refer to note 17; and
• Recovery of deferred tax assets – refer to note 5;
Note 19: Financial Instruments and Risk Management
1. Capital risk management
Capital risk is managed and monitored by liaising with banks and communicating with shareholders. JCurve Solutions
considers new government legislation and monitors the market place by canvassing information from stockbrokers
and investors.
When managing capital, management’s objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain
optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Management also aims to maintain a capital structure
that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity. Management adjust the capital structure as necessary to take
advantage of favourable costs of capital or high returns on assets. As the market is constantly changing, management may
change the amount of dividends to be paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to
reduce debt.

2. Financial Risk Management
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of
measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset,
financial liability and equity instrument are outlined above in the relevant note.
The Group’s principal financial liabilities are trade payables and unearned income which arise during the course of
operations. The Group has various financial assets such as trade receivables and cash and short-term deposits, which
arise directly from its operations.
The Group’s policy throughout 2019 has remained that no trading in derivatives shall be undertaken. The main
risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are cash flow interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and credit risk. The
Board of Directors reviews and agrees on policies for managing each of these risks which are summarised on the
following pages.

For all financial instruments, the net fair value approximates their carrying value.
No financial assets and financial liabilities are readily traded on organised markets in standardised forms.
Interest on financial instruments classified as floating rate is fixed at intervals of less than one year. The other financial
instruments of the Group that are not included in the above tables are non-interest bearing and are therefore not subject
to interest rate risk.
(*) Prior year comparatives have been adjusted to reallocate $482,087 from interest bearing liabilities to non interest
bearing liabilities.

Interest rate risk sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for both derivative and non-
derivative instruments at the reporting date and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year
and held constant throughout the reporting period. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest
rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the change in interest rates.
At reporting date, if interest rates had been 50 basis points higher or lower and all other variables were held constant,
the Group’s net profit before tax would increase by $24,915 and decrease by $10,188 respectively (2018: increase by
$23,525 and decrease by $10,117). This is mainly attributable to the Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable
rate cash deposits.
4. Price Risk – Equity and Commodity
The Group’s exposure to commodity and equity securities price risk is minimal.
5. Foreign Currency Risk
Following the acquisition of Spectrum and establishment of a Philippines centre of excellence, the Group is now exposed
to foreign currency risk from movements in the Australian dollar relative to the Singapore and US Dollar’s and Philippine
Peso. Foreign currency risk arises from future transactions and recognizing assets and liabilities denominated in a
currency that is not the Group’s functional currency.
The Group seeks to limit its exposure to foreign currency risk, by maintaining a bank account denominated in
Singapore dollars and is in the process of setting up a Philippines bank account denominated in Philippine Peso so that
income received from Asian customers is deposited and held in the overseas currency without the need to transact in
multiple currencies.
The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the reporting date is as follows (in AUD translated balances):

For the year ending 30 June 2019, if the average exchange rate for AUD:SGD had been 10% lower or higher and all other
variables were held constant, the Group’s net profit before tax would decrease by $21,716 and increase by $17,767
respectively (2018: decrease by nil and increase by nil).
Notes to the Financial Statements
6. Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other
receivables. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure
equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. Exposure at balance date is addressed in each applicable note.
The Group does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure.
The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties, and as such collateral is not requested nor is it the
Group’s policy to securitise its trade and other receivables.
It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures
including an assessment of their independent credit rating, financial position, past experience and industry reputation.
Risk limits are set for each individual customer in accordance with parameters set by the board. These risk limits are
regularly monitored.
Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not
significant.

The provision for doubtful debts as at 30 June 2019 is $71,952 (2018: $114,173). The provision for doubtful debts includes
expected credit losses of $13,378 which were recognised on adoption of AASB 9 (2018: nil).
Other balances within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. It is expected that
these other balances will be received when due.
7. Liquidity Risk Management
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, who have built an appropriate
liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long-term funding and
liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and banking
facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets
and liabilities.
Note 20: Commitments
1. Remuneration Commitments
There are no commitments for the payment of salaries and other remuneration under long-term employment contracts in
existence at the reporting date.
2. Operating Lease Commitments

Operating lease commitments are in respect of the Chatswood office, St Kilda office, an office in Singapore, a serviced
office in Singapore as well as telephone and printer leases.
(i) Accounting policy - Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised at their fair value or, if lower, the present value of the minimum
lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the
Statement of Financial Position as a finance lease obligation.
Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a
constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income,
unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised.
Finance leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where
another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are
consumed.
Note 21: Contingencies
1. Contingent Liabilities
The Group does not have any contingent liabilities.
Note 22: Events Occurring After the Reporting Period
No matters or circumstances have arisen since 30 June 2019 that significantly affect, or may significantly affect:
• the Group’s operations in future financial years, or
• the results of those operations in future financial years, or
• the Group’s state of affairs in future financial years.
Note 23: Statement of Significant
Accounting Policies
1. 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, Accounting Standards and Interpretations and complies with other requirements of the law.
The financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB). JCurve Solutions Limited is a for-profit entity for the purposes of preparing the
financial statements.
The accounting policies detailed below have been consistently applied to all years unless otherwise stated. The financial
report is for the consolidated entity consisting of JCurve Solutions Limited and its subsidiaries.
The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest dollar.
Notes to the Financial Statements
2. Changes to presentation
The classification of some prior period comparatives have been adjusted to reflect an internal reporting change in the
presentation of financial statement line items which the Company believes will assist users with their understanding of the
Annual Report. There was no net overall profit or loss effect from the reclassification.
3. New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted
In the year ended 30 June 2019, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations
issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual reporting period. The Directors
have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group and,
therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the 30 June
reporting period and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new
standards and interpretations which are most relevant to the Group are set out below:
(i) AASB 16 Leases
AASB 16 was issued to replace AASB 117 Leases and a number of interpretations. AASB 16 will provide a comprehensive
model for the identification of lease arrangements and their treatment in the financial statements of both lessees
and lessors.
The new standard will have three possible main changes on the Group’s accounting for leases:
• Enhanced guidance on identifying whether a contract contains a lease;
• A completely new leases accounting model for lessees that require lessees to recognise all leases
on balance sheet except for short-term leases and leases of low value assets; and
• Enhanced financial statement disclosures.
The new standard will result in almost all leases being recognised on the Statement of Financial Position. The current
distinction between operating and finance leases will be removed with an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a
liability (rental payments) being recognised.
Lessor accounting will not significantly change under AASB 16.
The Group has adopted the new standard from 1 July 2019 under the modified retrospective approach. On adoption
of AASB 16, the Group will be recognizing leased liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as
operating leases under AASB 117. The adoption of AASB 16 will also result in the recognition of a right of use asset.
AASB 16 will impact the Group’s operating leases which are outlined in Note 20. As at 30 June 2019, the Group had
non-cancellable operating lease commitments of $776,526 (2018: $802,349). The Group has assessed that the impact of
adopting AASB 16 from 1 July 2019 is the recognition of leased liabilities totalling $727,859 and the recognition of right of
use assets totaling $727,859.
There are no other standard that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the Group
in the current or future periods.
4. Statement of Compliance
The financial report was authorised for issue on 26 August 2019.
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International
Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial
statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
5. Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of JCurve Solutions Limited and its subsidiaries as
at 30 June each year (the Group).
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using
consistent accounting policies.
44
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. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated
from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control
is transferred out of the Group. Control exists where the company has the power to govern the financial and operating
policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
The acquisition of subsidiaries has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The purchase method
of accounting involves allocating the cost of the business combination to the fair value of the assets acquired and the
liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements
include the results of subsidiaries for the period from their acquisition.
Note 24: Share-Based Payment Plans
(i) Shares issued under Equity Incentive Plan
The equity incentive plan was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 22 November 2016.
On 27 June 2017, 10,000,000 performance rights (valued at $27,500) were issued to employees under the plan. These
performance rights were revalued to $54,862 following an increase in the JCurve Solutions Limited share price during the
year. On 9 October 2017, 1,500,000 performance rights (valued at $30,933) were issued to employees under the plan.
Each performance right has a nil exercise price and convert into one fully paid ordinary share in JCurve Solutions Limited
upon meeting the vesting conditions. The performance rights vest on 31 August 2019. If the vesting conditions are not met
the performance right lapses on 31 August 2019.
During the year ended 30 June 2019, 1,500,000 performance rights (valued at $30,933) were cancelled under the plan
when the service condition associated with the performance rights were not met.
The share-based payment expense is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income
evenly over the vesting period.
(ii) Share Option Plan – Acquisition of JCurve Business Software
JCurve Solutions Limited issued 35,714,284 options (valued at $1,572,144) as part consideration for the acquisition of
JCurve Solutions Pty Ltd by its subsidiary JCurve Business Software Pty Ltd.
The contractual life of each option granted is between 3 and 5 years. There are no cash settlement alternatives.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 25: Business Combinations
Acquisition of the Spectrum Partner Group
On 17 December 2018, JCurve Solutions Asia Pte Ltd, a 100% owned subsidiary of the Group purchased all of the business
and assets of Spectrum Partner Group Pte Ltd (Spectrum), a NetSuite two star partner domiciled in Singapore.
The purchase price is to be paid across a completion payment of S$300,000 (paid on the 13/12/2018) and a deferred
payment in August 2019 based on the level of income generated by the Singapore business for the year ending 31 March
2019 plus qualifying opportunities for the following three months to 30 June 2019. Based on the latest available forecasts
obtained pre-acquisition as part of the due diligence phase, the Group estimated the deferred payment to be S$300,000
(A$311,333). After closing more qualifying opportunities in the April to June 2019 period, than originally forecast, the
deferred payment which is due to be paid by 31 August 2019 was S$334,074 (A$351,805). The $40,472 difference between
the estimated deferred payment and actual deferred payment has been released to the Statement of Profit or Loss and
Other Comprehensive Income and is included in other expenses.
Acquisition related costs of $17,252 were included in due diligence costs in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income for the year ended 30 June 2019.
The fair values of the identifiable assets acquired as part of the acquisition is as follows:

It is expected that the acquisition of the Spectrum will deliver the Group additional synergies through a reduction in
the overall cost base of the ERP delivery team as the ERP division grows, while it is expected that the Group will be able
to increase sales through the Asian market through the ultiisation of the marketing and finance departments from the
Group’s head office. These synergies are recognised through the goodwill balance recognised. In addition the acquisition
by JCurve Solutions will see the Group receive NetSuite five-star partner margins on Spectrum customers eligible for
commission, where pre-acquisition only two star partner margins were received. This synergy has been recognised
through the NetSuite customer contracts balance recognised.
Net cash outflow arising on acquisition
The cash outflow on acquisition was $312,467 (S$300,000) with a further deferred payment to be paid in August 2019
based on the performance factors outlined above.
The acquisition of Spectrum affected the year ended 30 June 2019 consolidated result as follows:

The Group has not disclosed the revenue or profit or loss as though the acquisition date for business combination
occurred at the start of the financial year as such disclosure would not be reliable with the acquired entities financial
statements being unaudited.

The useful life of the NetSuite customer contracts intangible asset was assessed as 2.5 years, with the intangible asset
being amortised from 18 December 2018 evenly over the 2.5 year period.
The useful life of the customer relationships intangible asset was assessed as 2.5 years, with the intangible asset being
amortised from 18 December 2018 evenly over the 2.5 year period.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of JCurve Solutions Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of JCurve Solutions Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries
(the Group), which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019, the statement of
profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement
of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial report, 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:
(i)
Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its
financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
(ii)
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 Corporations
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (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.

a separate opinion on these matters.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free

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.
