Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Chairman’s Letter
Dear fellow shareholders,
Mr Leath Nicholson
Independent Non-
Executive Chairman
I welcome you to the 2021 Annual Report for Constellation Technologies
Limited and its subsidiaries and I thank you for your interest and continued
support.
There is no denying that the COVID19 pandemic has impacted all of us. It has
restricted the way we move through our communities; the way we attend our
work sites and the way we communicate with each other. How we conduct
business has changed for the foreseeable future.
The pandemic has undeniably impacted sales opportunities for the Company
across the globe. Some of our hospitality sector clients have had to close their
doors temporarily, whilst planned projects in other sectors have been put on
hold until economic conditions improve.
With this in mind, the Company has refocused its sales pipeline to core
infrastructure sectors and industries that have seen sustainability or growth
through the pandemic.
Our core temperature sensor product is now being used to monitor COVID
vaccines in the health sector and our flagship platform MeridianCT is being
used for monitoring water treatment facilities and disaster mitigation in
private and government backed utilities sectors.
The sales cycles in these industries however have changed from historical
norms. The period from initial discussions to closure has expanded twofold.
The Company will continue to focus its efforts on supporting its existing core
sensor products and the MeridianCT Platform in the coming year. It will be an
exciting year as we continue to build on the momentum we have generated in
the past twelve months.
Finally, I wish to thank my fellow directors and our staff for their continued
efforts & support in the past year, often under very difficult conditions,
especially working from home.

Annual Report 2021
CEO Report
Dear fellow shareholders,
Mr Kartheek Munigoti
Chief Executive Officer
The 2021 financial year has been a year of many changes for the Company.
The IoT 4.0 adoption theme is rapidly receiving an increasing amount of
mainstream attention and awareness with many industries now moving from
conceptual pondering to practical application. Technical obstacles to
Industrial IoT (IIoT) at scale still exist. Many organisations are still wondering
how to overcome the challenges caused by these heterogeneous applications
and how to bring various disparate datasets into a single view to make
informed business decisions. Due to these complexities, even companies with
substantial IIoT track records are facing challenges in executing this process
in isolation.
Contrary to a common misbelief, there’s no need to replace a company’s
legacy infrastructure to implement an Industry 4.0 solution. CT1's
MeridianCT Platform (MCT) enables an organization to seamlessly integrate
its legacy equipment and datasets into one single framework. It also provides
Artificial Intelligence capabilities such as predictions and alerts, enabling the
automation of a workflow process.
We have seen an increasing amount of market enquiry from all levels of
government and infrastructure operators for technology vendors that can
provide IoT Solutions which is a first practical step for these groups to
understand what might be possible in terms of new technologies and who
they should work with to develop them.
During the year, the Company continued to develop MCT to support
infrastructure projects in China and Australia.
MCT has the ability to receive data feeds from sensors, video, internal
system, third party API’s, ingest data, collate processes and apply business
intelligence to integrate with operational systems which allows for
automating business workflow.
MCT also supports Digital Twin Solutions that will reduce downtime and
simplify maintenance tasks with photorealistic 3D models that collect and
visualise real-time data from our customer’s assets.
This gives our customers a holistic view of their assets and facilities so they
can manage everything from anywhere, anytime.
During the year, MCT has been implemented over several projects in a
variety of environments. MCT is currently being used to monitor:
3
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
CEO Report continued…
• the real-time environmental impact on wetlands via the collation of live
video feeds, weather, temperature, humidity and chemical analysis data.
The MCT also ingests data from a centralised Supervisory Control and
Data Acquisition (SCADA) system which connects with multiple
Programable Logic Controllers (PLC’s) at the wetlands. This data is
allowing the users to make informed real-time decisions to mitigate the
impact of adverse environmental events and vegetation health as they
occur rather than reacting to environmental damage post event
occurrence.
• the treatment of water through infrastructure facilities. 3D imagery of the
water treatment facilities incorporated into MCT is assisting users to visual
plant layout, monitor real-time video feed and anlayse data from various
sensors streamlining the overall control of the facilities. A trial SCADA
project is also underway to incorporate command execution into MCT to
allow users to remotely control the operations.
• flood levels over multiple locations in potential disaster zones during wet
seasons. Real-time camera monitoring and integration with onsite signage
systems that allows for fast decision making to reduce public exposure to
flooded roads, infrastructure damage and environmental impact.
MCT is a robust end to end IoT platform on which we can assist innovators to
develop, launch or maintain their IoT solutions.
We are able to, and have been, assisting clients to develop hardware sensors
suited to their specific needs through our design and production capabilities.
Due to MCT’s diversity and our hardware design capabilities, the Company is a
unique position to offer services across multiple industries, making it a real IoT
solution provider.
The Company continued to expand the application of its cold storage or
temperature monitoring solution into existing sites in the health sector. Barwon
Health has commenced utilizing our cold storage solution for COVID-19 vaccine
monitoring.
Despite the implementation of several new MCT projects and increased use of
the cold storage solution in the health sector, the economic downturn in the
hospitality and other sectors due to the COVID-19 pandemic has reduced sales
in some sectors and placed some sales pipeline projects on hold until economic
conditions improve.

Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
CEO Report continued…
Our sales cycle from inquiry to finalisation has increased as companies across the
globe struggle with ever changing COVID-19 related supply, travel or working
conditions that limits their ability to adhere to pre pandemic timeframes.
We expect that our sales cycle timelines to remain extended into the foreseeable
future.
Post 30 June, the Company announced the signing of a Master Services
Agreement with Fujitsu Australia for the provision of its full suite of services
including software & hardware development. The Company will contract
directly with Fujitsu’s customers for the licensing of MCT and SaaS services.
Whilst no definitive projects contracts have been signed, both companies are
currently developing mutual potential projects which they hope will come to
fruition during FY22.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr Adam Gallagher, who was our
CEO throughout FY21 until 5 July 2021. In the last two years, Adam has been
instrumental in expanding the Company’s product base, securing new customers
and channel partners, and building a new foundation for growth.
Adams legacy will be with the Company in the years to come.
I would also like to thank the tireless effort of our staff across Australia, India and
China. During the past twelve months they have often worked in extenuating
conditions and spent more time working from home than in our office, but still
maintained a sense of humor and delivered to project timeframes. A very big
thankyou!

Annual Report 2021
Remuneration Report (audited)
The directors present the Constellation Technologies Limited 2021 Remuneration Report, outlining key
aspects of our remuneration policy and framework, and remuneration awarded this year.
The report is structured as follows:
a) Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
b) Details of remuneration
c) Service agreements
d) Equity instruments
e) Relationship between the remuneration policy and group performance
f) Key management personnel disclosures
a)
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
Remuneration policy
The performance of the Group depends upon the quality of its directors and executives. To prosper, the
Group must attract and retain highly skilled directors and executives.
Remuneration committee
The Board has a Remuneration Committee comprising the following members:
Mr Leath Nicholson, Non-Executive Director (chair)
Mr Anoosh Manzoori, Non-Executive Director
Mr Adam Gallagher, the Company’s CEO during the period had a standing invitation to attend Committee
meetings, however he is not permitted to vote.
The Committee assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amounts of emoluments of such officers on a
periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring
maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high-quality board and executive team.
Officers are given the opportunity to receive their base emoluments in a variety of forms including cash,
salary sacrifice and fringe benefits. It is intended that that the manner of payments chosen will be optimal for
the recipient without creating undue cost for the Group.
Remuneration structure
It is the Group's objective to provide maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high-quality board
and executive team by remunerating directors and other key management personnel (KMP) fairly and
appropriately with reference to relevant employment market conditions.
14
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Remuneration report continued…
To assist in achieving this objective, the Committee considers the nature and amount of executive directors’
and officers’ emoluments alongside the Group's financial and operational performance. The expected
outcomes of the remuneration structure are the retention and motivation of key executives, the attraction of
quality management to the Group and performance incentives, which allow executives to share the rewards
of the success of the Group.
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of executive and non-executive
director remuneration is separate and distinct.
Non-executive directors
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the Group with the ability to attract
and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders.
The constitution of Constellation Technologies Limited and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the non-
executive directors are entitled to remuneration as determined by the Group in a General Meeting to be
apportioned amongst them in such manner as the directors agree and, in default of agreement, equally. The
maximum aggregate remuneration currently approved by shareholders for directors' fees is for a total of
$400,000 per annum.
If a non-executive director performs extra services which in the opinion of the directors are outside the scope
of the ordinary duties of the director, the Group may remunerate that director by payment of a fixed sum
determined by the directors in addition to or instead of the remuneration referred to above. Non-executive
directors are entitled to be paid travel and other expenses properly incurred by them in attending directors or
General Meetings of the Group or otherwise in connection with the business of the Group.
Executive directors and senior management
The Group aims to reward executive directors and senior management with a level and mix of remuneration
commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the group and to:
•
reward executives for Group and individual performance against targets set by reference to
appropriate benchmarks;
• align the interests of the executives with those of shareholders;
•
• ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
link reward with strategic goals and performance of the Group; and
15
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Remuneration report continued…
The remuneration of the executive directors and senior management may from time-to-time be fixed by the
Remuneration Committee. As noted above, the policy is to align executive objectives with shareholder and
business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering short- and long-term
incentives. The level of fixed remuneration is set to provide a base level of remuneration, which is both
appropriate to the position and is competitive in the market. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the
committee, and the process consists of a review of group-wide and individual performance, relevant
comparative remuneration in the market and internal, and where appropriate, external advice on policies
and practices.
In relation to the payment of bonuses, options and other incentive payments, discretion is exercised by the
committee, having regard to the overall performance of the Group and the performance of the individual
during the year.
Employment and consultancy contracts
The Group utilises a mixture of employment and consultancy contracts to provide the Group with the
flexibility to operate effectively in a dynamic industry.
It is the Board’s policy that agreements are entered into with all directors, executives and employees.
Details of notice periods and termination clauses are disclosed under Section c) below.
Voting and comments made at the last annual general meeting
At the last annual general meeting (AGM), the Group received approval for the remuneration report adopted
for the 2020 financial year. The Group did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM or throughout the
year on its remuneration policies.

Fixed remuneration is not linked to Group performance. It is set to the individuals' role, responsibilities and
performance and remuneration levels for similar positions in the market.

Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Remuneration report continued…
The Board do not believe that financial targets such as net profit are the only appropriate performance
measure for the granting of short and long term incentives to KMP. Other financial targets such as cost
reduction and key performance indicators such as projects/strategic targets, executive behavior and
customer experience are equally as important for a Group in this stage of its life cycle and have a direct and
indirect impact on shareholder returns.
During the year, the Group granted equity to KMP’s in lieu of cash-based fixed remuneration and as part of a
salary sacrifice arrangement.
Share prices are subject to the influence of market sentiment toward the sector in which it operates and
increase and decreases in the share price may occur independently of executive performance or
remuneration.

For the year ended 30 June 2021
1. Segment information
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief
operating decision maker. The chief operating decision makers, who are responsible for allocating resources and
assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board and the Chief Executive
Officer of Constellation Technologies Limited. The Group has identified one reportable segment; that is, the sale
and commercialisation of the IoT Solution. The segment details are therefore fully reflected in the body of the
financial statements.
2. Revenue from contracts with customers

c) Accounting policies
Installation and use of monitor tags
Revenue from the sale of the food temperature monitoring tags are recognised over time when the customer
has access and thus control of the gadget and where the tag is considered distinct from other services provided
to the customer. Contracts do not provide for discounts or rebates which give rise to variable consideration.
Neither do they contain provision for warranties.
Monitoring subscriptions
Revenue from the sale of monitoring subscriptions is recognised on a straight-line basis over the subscription
term.
Consulting
Revenue from the provision of consulting and ad hoc maintenance services is recognised typically over time
when the Group has an enforceable right to payment for its performance completed to date. Customer
contracts will include a statement of work, which will describe the work to be completed and the time frame for
its completion. These services are invoiced at the point in time of completion of performance obligations within
the statement of work.
Therefore revenue is recognised when the performance obligation is completed.
Labour hire
Revenue from the provision of labour hire services is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the hire
agreement.
Critical judgements in allocating the transaction price
Management allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on an assessment of work
completed at each reporting date for consulting revenue. Due to variations between each contract, up front
payments and changes to projects during the term of engagement, judgement is used in estimating the
completion of performance obligations and allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation.
34
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
Customer contract with multiple performance obligations
The Group frequently enters into multiple contracts with the same customer and where that occurs the Group
treats those arrangements as one contract if the contracts are entered into at or near the same time and are
commercially interrelated. The Group does not consider contracts closed more than three months apart as a
single contract.
The Group's subscription contracts are combining an obligation to receive a monitor tag and customer support
and monitoring services. The provision of monitor tags is treated as a separate performance obligation to the
services provided. As a result, the total transaction price for a customer contract is allocated amongst the
distinct performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. Where the stand-alone
prices are highly variable, the Group applies a residual approach.
Incremental costs of obtaining customer contracts
Commissions on obtaining any customer contracts are capitalised and amortised over the term, where the
term is greater than 12 months.
Financing components
The group does not recognise adjustments to transition prices or contract balances where the period between
the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer and payment by customer does not exceed 12
months.

Tax losses
The Group does not recognise as a deferred tax asset carried forward tax losses. Deferred tax assets are
recognised for deductible temporary differences only if the entities consider it is probable that future taxable
amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. As at 30 June 2021, no deferred tax
balances have been recognised (2020: nil).
Unused tax losses available to the Group are currently not known and have not been included as the Group has
not yet calculated a reliable estimate of these losses.

Classification as trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course
of business. They are generally due for settlement within 30 days and therefore are all classified as current.
Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they
contain significant financing components, when they are recognised at fair value. The Group holds the trade
receivables with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently
at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Details about the Group’s impairment policies and the
calculation of the loss allowance are provided in note 10(b).
Other receivables
Other receivables are amounts due from parties other than customers that are deemed to be receivable within
12 months. Other receivables are impaired in accordance with note 20 (n).

The carrying amounts of trade and other payables are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to
their short-term nature.

Leave obligations
The leave obligations cover the Group’s liabilities for annual leave which are classified as short-term benefits, as
explained in note 20(q).
The current portion of this liability includes all of the accrued annual leave. The entire amount of the provision of
$123,481 (2020: $38,526) is presented as current, since the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer
settlement for any of these obligations. However, based on past experience, the Group does not expect all
employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next 12 months.

9. Critical estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will
seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Group’s
accounting policies.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of
items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be
wrong. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in other notes together
with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.
47
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
Significant estimates and judgements
The areas involving significant estimates or judgements are:
• Recognition of revenue and allocation of transaction price - note 2c
• Non-recognition of carry-forward tax losses - note 4b
• Estimation of employee benefit obligations - note 6d
• Estimation of share-based payments - note 16
• Application of the going concern assumption - note 20a
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
In assessing the carrying value of the company’s assets and liabilities, the directors have taken into
consideration the economic outlook in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has not had a material
impact on the Group’s operations to date and therefore no additional provisions specific to the pandemic has
been taken up in the Group’s accounts. At this stage, the directors do not believe the pandemic will have a
material impact on the Group’s operations in the future due to its diversification of operations in Australia and
China.
10. Financial risk management
This note explains the Group's exposure to financial risks and how these risks could affect the Group’s future
financial performance.
The Group’s risk management is predominantly controlled by the Board. The Board monitors the Group's
financial risk management policies and exposures and approves substantial financial transactions. It also
reviews the effectiveness of internal controls relating to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
a) Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currency and is exposed to foreign
currency risk through foreign exchange rate fluctuations. The Group is primarily exposed to changes in
the Chinese yuan and Indian rupee against the Australian dollar on translation into the Group's
presentation currency of subsidiaries' financial information. However, there are no material financial
assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of each entity.
Therefore, management has concluded that market risk from foreign exchange fluctuation is not
material.
b) Credit risk
Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by
counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group.
48
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
Risk management
Credit risk is managed through the maintenance of procedures (such as the utilisation of systems for the
approval, granting and renewal of credit limits, regular monitoring of exposures against such limits and
monitoring the financial stability of significant customers and counterparties), ensuring to the extent
possible that customers and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness. Such
monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment. Credit terms are normally 30 days from the
invoice date.
Risk is also minimised through investing surplus funds in financial institutions that maintain a high credit
rating.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group has one type of financial asset subject to the expected credit loss model:
trade receivables for sales of monitor tags, the provision of monitoring subscriptions, consulting and
labour hire services.
While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements of AASB 9, the
identified impairment loss was immaterial.
Trade receivables
The Group applies the AASB 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a
lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables.
To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk
characteristics and the days past due.
The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 24 months before 30
June 2021 and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss
rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors
affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables.
On that basis, the loss allowance as at 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2021 were determined as follows for
trade receivables:

Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that
there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to
engage in a repayment plan with the Group, and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of
greater than 121 days past due.
Impairment losses on trade receivables are presented as net impairment losses within operating profit.
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item.
The directors have deemed that no additional provision over and above current provisions are
warranted in light of the COVID-19 pandemic due to the recoverability of receivables to date and the
Company’s relationships with its customers. This will however be monitored closely into the future.
c)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or
otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group manages this risk through the
following mechanisms:
•
preparing forward looking cash flow analyses in relation to its operating, investing and financing
activities;
obtaining funding from a variety of sources;
maintaining a reputable credit profile;
managing credit risk related to financial assets;
investing cash with major financial institutions; and
comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with the realisation profile of financial assets.

11. Capital management
a)
Risk management
The Group's objectives when managing capital are to
•
safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns
for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and
maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
•
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may issue new shares or reduce its capital,
subject to the provisions of the Group's constitution. The capital structure of the Group consists of equity
attributed to equity holders of the group, comprising contributed equity, reserves and accumulated
losses. By monitoring undiscounted cash flow forecasts and actual cash flows provided to the Board by
the Group's management, the Board monitors the need to raise additional equity from the equity
markets.
b) Dividends
No dividends were declared or paid to members for the year ended 30 June 2021 (2020: nil). The Group’s
franking account balance was nil at 30 June 2021 (2020: nil).

20. Summary of significant accounting policies
This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated
financial statements to the extent they have not already been disclosed in the other notes above. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial
statements are for the Group consisting of Constellation Technologies Limited and the entities its controlled.
a)
Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the
Corporations Act 2001. Constellation Technologies Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of
preparing the financial statements.
61
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
i) Compliance with IFRS
The consolidated financial statements of the Constellation Technologies Limited group also comply with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB).
ii) Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis.
iii) Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity
of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course
of business.
As disclosed in the financial statements, the Group is in a net asset position of $3,011,651, net current
asset position of $2,843,316 and has net operating cash outflows of $2,800,464. The Group generated a
loss after tax for the year of $3,221,821. The group’s cash position decreased to $2,597,731 at 30 June
2021.
Notwithstanding the historical losses to date the directors believe that the going concern basis of
preparation is appropriate due to the following reasons:
•
•
•
Significant progress has been made in releasing the Group’s intellectual property. The Group’s
revenue increased 112.02% over the prior year;
Recent history in raising capital. The Group successfully raised over $5.6 from investors in the prior
year. In the current year shareholders have exercised options raising $1.7m. There are still
392,821,417 options outstanding that could raise up to $5.8m from shareholders; and
The Group continues to apply different measures to control its expenditure to preserve cash and
working capital. It has the ability to negotiate payment in equity in lieu of cash with its consultants
and suppliers, also improves the Group’s cash coverage.
New and amended standards adopted by the group
No new standards came into effect for the annual reporting period commencing 1 July 2020.
62
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
New standards and interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are
not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting
period ended 30 June 2021. The consolidated entity’s assessment of the impact of these new amended
Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below:
Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework)
The revised Conceptual Framework is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July
2021 and early adopted is permitted. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and
recognition criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards.
Where the consolidated entity has relied on the existing framework in determining its accounting policies
for transactions, events or conditions that are not otherwise dealt with under the Australian Accounting
Standards, the consolidated entity may need to review such policies under the revised framework. At this
time, the application of the Conceptual Framework is not expected to have a material impact on the
consolidated entity’s financial statements.
b)
Principles of consolidation
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group
controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement
with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the
entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group.
They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies
are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an
impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where
necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
c)
Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief
operating decision makers. This has been identified as the Board and chief executive officer.
63
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
d)
Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ('the functional currency'). The
consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollar ($), which is Constellation
Technologies Limited's functional and presentation currency.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such
transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the consolidated
statement of profit or loss, within finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are
presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss on a net basis within other gains/(losses).
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the
exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and
liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. For example, translation
differences on non-monetary assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss
are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss and translation differences on non-
monetary assets such as equities classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income are
recognised in other comprehensive income.
Group companies
The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a
hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are
translated into the presentation currency as follows:
•
assets and liabilities for each consolidated balance sheet presented are translated at the closing
rate at the date of that consolidated balance sheet
income and expenses for each consolidated statement of profit or loss and consolidated statement
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless
this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the
transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the
transactions), and
all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
•
•
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign
entities, and of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments,
are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings
forming part of the net investment are repaid, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to
profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.

g)
Revenue recognition
The accounting policies for the Group’s revenue from contracts with customers are explained in note 2.
Contract liabilities
Contract liabilities represent the Group’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer and are
recognised when a customer pays consideration, or when the Group recognises a receivable to reflect its
unconditional right to consideration (whichever is earlier) before the Group has transferred the goods or
services to the customer.
Income tax
The income tax expense or credit for the year is the tax payable on the current year's taxable income
based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets
and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted
at the end of the reporting year in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries and associates
operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns
with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes
provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial
statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition
of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or
liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects
neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and
laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting year and are expected
to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is
settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to
utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items
recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in
other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
h)
Borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of
transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method.

i)
j)
k)
l)
Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially
recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted
using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the consolidated
entities incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease
incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts excepted to
be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the
option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease
payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying
amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following; future lease payments arising from a
change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and
termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding
right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.
Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the consolidated entity that has been disposed of or is
classified as held for sale and that represents a major line of business or area of operations, or is a
subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented
separately on the face of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Where a decision is made to
treat a major line of business or area of operations as discontinued the comparative information is
restated to reflect as if that major line of business or area of operations had been discontinued in the
prior year.
Impairment of assets
Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's
carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair
value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are
grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely
independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-
financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the
impairment at the end of each reporting year.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents
includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts.
Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.
66
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
m) Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost
using the effective interest method, less loss allowance. See note 5(b) for further information about the
Group’s accounting for trade receivables and note 10(b) for a description of the Group's impairment
policies.
n)
Investments and other financial assets
Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
•
•
those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through profit or loss),
and
those to be measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For
investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has
made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair
value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
Recognition and derecognition
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the
Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive
cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in
profit or loss.
Impairment
The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt
instruments carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on
whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires
expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables, see note 10(b) for
further details.
67
Constellation Technologies Limited
Annual Report 2021
Notes to the Consolidated Statements continued …
o)
Property, plant and equipment
Plant & Equipment
Plant & equipment acquired are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to
the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component
accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are
charged to profit or loss during the reporting year in which they are incurred.
The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each
reporting year.
An assets carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying
amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are
included in profit or loss.
Right-of-use assets
These includes leases of rental properties and equipment.
A right-of-use asset is recogised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asst is
measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable,
any lease payments made at or before the commence date, net of any lease incentives received, any
initial direct costs incurred, and except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of the cost
expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlaying asset, and restoring the site or
asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the
estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to
obtain ownership of the lease asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over the estimated
useful life. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease
liabilities.
The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-
term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these
assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.

p)
q)
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of
financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of
recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due
within 12 months after the reporting year. They are recognised initially at their fair value and
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Employee benefits
Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick
leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the year in which the
employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the
year and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities
are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.
Share-based payments
Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees via the 'employee share option plan'
(ESOP). Information relating to these schemes is set out in note 16.
Employee options
The fair value of options granted under the ESOP is recognised as a share-based payment expense with a
corresponding increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair
value of the options granted:
•
•
including any market performance conditions (e.g. the Group’s share price)
excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions (e.g.
profitability, sales growth targets and remaining an employee of the Group over a specified time
period), and
including the impact of any non-vesting conditions (e.g. the requirement for employees to save or
holdings shares for a specific period of time).
•
The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified
vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each year, the Group revises its estimates of the
number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It
recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding
adjustment to equity.

s)
Contributed equity
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.
Loss per share
Basic loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing:
•
the loss attributable to owners of the Group, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than
ordinary shares
• by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year,
adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
Diluted loss per share
Diluted loss per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic loss per share to take into
account:
•
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential
ordinary shares, and
the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding
assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
•
t)
Rounding of amounts
The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Legislative Instrument 2016/191, relating to the 'rounding off'
of amounts in the financial statements. Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off in
accordance with the instrument to the nearest dollar.
u) Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST
incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of
acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net
amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables
or payables in the consolidated balance sheet.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or
financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as
operating cash flows.
v)
Inventory
Stock on hand is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a ‘first in first out’ basis or FIFO.
Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts received or
receivable. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the
estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
