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 Step 5: Recognise revenue as the performance obligations Telecommunication Expense Management solutions are satisfied. is satisfied over the contracted period; and 25 • The performance obligation for the implemented but the software to be installed by a qualified JCurve Riyo software is satisfied when the Riyo Solutions implementation consultant. As such a combined software has been installed and is operating implemented ERP software performance obligation materially as contractually required. is presented. In addition to contracts with customers, the Group receives Technical support which is purchased by ERP software interest income from monies held in its bank accounts, customers to assist with their ongoing use of the ERP Interest income is recognised on an accruals basis based software and is separate from the combined ERP on the interest rate, deposited amount and time which software/implementation performance obligation. lapses before the reporting period end date. 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 over the contract period. The performance obligation for the implemented Riyo software is satisfied at the point in time when the Riyo software has been installed and is operating materially as contractually required. It is when the customer has full access to and control of the Riyo software.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.

Unrecognised deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities The balance of carried forward tax losses that have not been recognised in the Financial Statements amount to $490,088 (2018: $476,267 unrecognised). The deductible temporary differences and tax losses do not expire under current legislation. Deferred tax assets totaling $134,774 (2018: $130,973) have not been recognised in respect of these items at this stage because it is not probable that future tax profits will be available against which the Group Assets or Liabilities arising under tax funding agreements can utilise the benefits thereof. with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts payable or receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group.

(iii) Other taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of Goods and Services Tax (GST) except: • 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.

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions: Recovery of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible tax receivable and deferred tax assets which relate to unused tax credits or unused tax losses that, under the tax consolidation legislation, are transferred to JCurve Solutions.

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 as follows: At 1 July Provision for impairment recognised during the year Receivables written off during the year as uncollectable Trade receivables provided for but collected Note 9: Other Current Assets Prepayments Term deposit Deferred expenditure Sundry debtors (*) Prior year comparative for prepayments has been adjusted.

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.

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. Notes to the Financial Statements (ii) Pistachio Connector On 8 April 2019, JCurve Business Software Pty Ltd, a 100% owned subsidiary of JCurve Solutions Limited, purchased the JConnect E-Commerce connector from Pistachio Media. The E-Commerce connector links a customers website to the JCurve edition of NetSuite. JCurve Business Software Pty Ltd previously operated under a licensing arrangement with Pistachio Media with both customers managed directly through JCurve Business Software Pty Ltd as well as some customers directly being managed by Pistachio Media. 2. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions (i) Impairment of intangibles with indefinite useful lives The Group determines whether goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives are impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash generating units to which the goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives are allocated. (ii) Useful life of the Riyo Platform The total cost of the asset acquisition was $100,000 which The Group has determined that the useful life of the Riyo was settled in cash on 27 June 2019. Purchase costs of Platform is 5 years with the useful life to be amortised on a $3,480 were included in professional fees in the Statement straight line basis over the five year period. of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income for the 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. 35 Note 13: Trade and Other Payables Current: Trade payables (*) Other payables Accrued expenses Deferred consideration Consolidated ($) 2019 2018 (*) 1,527,278 530,376 853,812 352,383 704,432 701,102 1,072,200 - 3,263,849 2,477,734 (*) Prior year comparative for trade payables has been adjusted.

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.

Accounting policy Consolidated ($) 2019 2018 - (1,070) (1,070) - - - 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). 2. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions: Share based payment transactions 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.

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. 39 Notes to the Financial Statements 3. Interest Rate Risk The following table sets out the carrying amount, by maturity, of the Group’s financial instruments including those exposed to interest rate risk: Within 1 year 1 to 5 years Total Weighted average effective interest rate Consolidated ($) Year ended 30 June 2019 Financial assets Non interest bearing: Trade and other receivables Other Current Assets Floating rate: Cash Assets Other Current Assets Financial liabilities Payables Year ended 30 June 2018 Financial assets Non interest bearing: Trade and other receivables Other Current Assets Floating rate: Cash Assets Other Current Assets (*) Financial liabilities Payables 2,389,384 694,276 3,083,660 4,765,339 231,365 4,996,704 8,080,364 3,263,849 3,263,849 2,190,485 717,819 2,908,304 4,487,536 217,665 4,705,201 7,613,505 2,477,734 2,477,734 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2,389,384 694,276 3,083,660 4,765,339 231,365 4,996,704 8,080,364 3,263,849 3,263,849 2,190,485 717,819 2,908,304 4,487,536 217,665 4,705,201 7,613,505 2,477,734 2,477,734 % 0.15% 2.04% 0.28% 2.13% 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. 40 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): Year ended 30 June 2019 Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Other Current Assets Total Current Assets Property, plant and equipment Intangible assets Total Non Current Assets Total Assets Trade and other payables Unearned income Provisions - current Total current liabilities Total Liabilities Net Assets 2019 12,605 215,095 120,435 348,135 2,783 529,642 532,425 880,560 438,846 133,657 15,337 587,840 587,840 292,720 2018 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 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. At 30 June 2019, the ageing analysis of trade receivables is as follows: Consolidated Total $ 0-30 days $ 0-30 days CI* $ 31-60 days 31-60 days 61-90 days CI* PDNI* $ $ $ 61-90 days CI* $ +91 days PDNI* $ +91 days CI* $ 2019 2018 1,432,258 1,013,134 1,015 207,913 1,015 73,727 1,015 100,009 34,430 1,491,841 1,050,739 - 62,553 - 201,592 - 62,784 114,173 * PDNI - Past due not impaired CI - Considered impaired The receivables which are past due but not considered impaired was $173,736 (2018: $264,376). 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 $13,378 which were recognised on adoption of AASB 9 (2018: nil). Other balances within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. It is expected that these other balances will be received when due. 7. Liquidity Risk Management Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and banking facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Note 20: Commitments 1. Remuneration Commitments There are no commitments for the payment of salaries and other remuneration under long-term employment contracts in existence at the reporting date. 2. Operating Lease Commitments The Group had the following operating lease commitments at balance date: 42 Within one year After one year but not more than five years 2019 494,226 282,300 776,526 Consolidated ($) 2018 305,954 496,395 802,349 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. The following table illustrates the number (No.) and weighted average exercise prices of and movements in share options issued during the year: 2019 2018 No. Weighted average No. Weighted average exercise price exercise price Outstanding at the beginning of the year 8,928,571 $0.000001 17,857,142 $0.000001 Expired during the year (8,928,571) Granted during the year Outstanding at the end of the year Exercisable at the end of the year - - - - - - (8,928,571) - - - 8,928,571 $0.000001 8,928,571 8,928,571 of options expired during the year. 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 $17,252 were included in due diligence costs in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income for the year ended 30 June 2019. The fair values of the identifiable assets acquired as part of the acquisition is as follows: NetSuite customer contracts Customer relationships Sundry debtors Fair value of identifiable net assets Goodwill arising on acquisition Consideration Fair value at Fair value at acquisition date acquisition date (S$) 165,326 168,455 31,460 365,241 234,759 600,000 (A$) 172,197 175,456 32,767 380,420 244,515 624,935 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: Revenue Less: expenses Loss before tax 30 June 2019 $ 354,558 (549,999) (195,441) 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. 46 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.

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.

The disclosure in connection with the recognition of license and implementation revenue can be found in Note 3. Due to the nature of these key estimates and judgements, and given the financial significance of revenue to the users of the financial report, revenue recognition of license and implementation revenue has been determined as a key audit matter. • Performing testing, on a sample basis, of management’s judgement in relation to application of “Go-live” date during the year and subsequent to year end to ensure revenue was recorded in the correct accounting period; • Review the operating effectiveness of internal controls in relation to the judgements associated with the satisfaction of identified performance obligations; • Reviewing a sample of deferred revenue balances at year end to ensure that revenue was appropriately deferred in accordance with the progress of individual projects; • Selecting a sample of projects during the year and agreeing them to customer contracts to ensure that revenue and deferred revenue were correctly calculated in accordance with AASB 15 and the Group’s revenue accounting policies.
