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. 

Leath Nicholson 
Independent Non-Executive Chairman

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:

Constellation Technologies Limited

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.

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!

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

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. 

b)  Details of remuneration 

•  Mr Leath Nicholson, Independent Non-Executive Chairman 
•  Mr Anoosh Manzoori, Independent Non-Executive Director 
•  Mr Adam Gallagher, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer until 5 July 2021 

Key management personnel (KMP) of the Group are defined as those persons having authority and

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.

Directors Report continued… 

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 directors' report. Amounts in the directors' report have been rounded off in accordance with 
the instrument to the nearest dollar. 

Non-audit services 
Fees paid or payable to PKF Brisbane Audit being the lead auditor of the Group, for non-audit and other 
assurance work during the year totaled $4,000 (2020: nil).  Amounts paid to PKF Kexin (Beijing) Business 
Advisory Co., Ltd and its related practices for non-audit and other assurance work totaled $20,601 (2020: 
nil). 

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditors for non-audit services provided during the financial 
year are outlined in note 17 to the financial statements. 

The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial by the auditors (or by 
another person or firm on the auditors’ behalf) is compatible with the general standard of independence for 
auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. 

The directors are of the opinion that the services discussed in note 17 to the financial statements do not 
compromise the external auditor’s independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following 
reasons: 

•  All non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the 

integrity and objectively of the auditors; and 

•  None of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and 
Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditors own work, acting in a 
management or decision-making capacity for the company, acting as advocate for the company or 
jointly sharing economic risks or rewards. 

Auditor's independence declaration 
A copy of the auditor's independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 
2001 is set out on the following page. 

This report is made in accordance with a resolution of directors.

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 
a)  Disaggregation of 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.

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).

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.

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. 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

Maturities of financial liabilities

contractual maturities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

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).

anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share.  These potential ordinary shares are anti-dilutive as their conversion 
to ordinary shares would decrease loss per share.  If these shares options were included in the calculation of

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
