CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
30 JUNE 2020
Dear Shareholder
It has been an extraordinary year to say the least. Not only for the company, but for the country overall.
The second half has been subject to immense disruption but I would like to thank the management and staff at
DomaCom for their outstanding efforts in being able to adapt to this disruption and continue to drive forward to
realise the vision of this innovative and forward-thinking organisation.
During the 19-20 financial year, we finally realised our objective of bringing the Senior Equity Release product to
a marketplace, that is in desperate need of a solution for the baby boomers moving into retirement with
insufficient funds to last their ever-increasing life expectancy. This has taken many years of perseverance,
resilience and, to use a former Prime Minister’s words, John Howard, “stickability”. Many people would have
given up on this vision but our management and staff stayed the course and with our recent announcement,
post the end of the financial year, regarding the ATO’s confirmation that the Downsizer benefit can be used for
partial sale of people’s homes, it further enhances this extremely attractive option to give retired people dignity
and a comfortable lifestyle without having to sell their entire home.
This was not the only client focused offering brought to market during the year. Arthur Naoumidis as CEO will
cover in more detail some of the offerings that will make a big difference to many. Aspects such as the Rent to
Own and Essential Worker affordable housing makes DomaCom a leader in technologically driven solutions to
support many of those in need.
Additionally, with interest rates at an all-time low and unlikely to move for some time we are seeing a greater
demand for both ends of the lending and borrowing spectrum looking for greater yield without moving
substantially up the risk return frontier. Our mortgage sub funds create that opportunity.
We should not forget the basis that DomaCom was founded. It still is an important component of our offering to
an ever-increasing sophisticated marketplace. Fractional property investing is as relevant today as it was when
Arthur conceived the idea. Diversification is a known tool for reduction of risk and with the lumpiness of
investment required by individual properties, our fractional property investing allows people to diversify across a
range of locations and types of property particularly with SMSF’s.
DomaCom has proved itself to be a versatile business. Our focus on property initially, with a revolutionary
technology platform, arguably one of the best in the marketplace, has shown that it can adapt to fractionalising
many different types of investments.
Opportunities that don’t fit the current investment paradigms and platforms can often fit the flexibility of the
DomaCom platform. For example, Islamic mortgages (which have specific compliance requirements),
environmentally friendly solar and wind farms and primary production farms to name a few.
The future is exciting. The DomaCom product and service offering combines a real set of solutions for
community-based demands as well as solutions for everyday people to minimise risk through appropriate
diversification. Whilst it has been a difficult, and in many cases, challenging period for DomaCom, we believe
we have our “ducks in a row” to capitalise on this unrealised potential.
It would be remiss of me not to once again thank our many shareholders who have stuck with the vision and
held their belief in this innovative organisation. I would also like to personally thank the management team led
by Arthur and Ross, our hard-working staff, our leading-edge technology team and of course the Board who on
a continual basis strive to balance the vision and the governance of this important revolutionary organisation.

CEO’S REPORT
30 JUNE 2020
Dear Shareholder
Overview
Our environment has changed considerably this past year with the country being in the COVID-19 pandemic
and DomaCom, like all companies, has had to adjust our operations and sales strategies to meet these
challenges.
From an operational perspective, the company has invoked our Business Continuity Plan and has been
operating on a fully remote basis since March 2020. Our business was well prepared for this transition as our
platform is entirely hosted in the cloud.
The biggest impact to our business from the pandemic stems from the spike in unemployment which is
expected to result in an increase in rental vacancies.
Our response has been to focus on products that we expect to perform well in this environment:
- Mortgage sub-funds
With interest rates and dividends being at historical lows, we have increased our marketing focus to the
mortgage syndication capability of our platform that will allow investors to access attractive interest rates.
With rates of around 4% for residential backed loans and 8% for development loans, we are starting to see
heightened interest from advisers.
Additionally, our first pooled mortgage fund has now reached over $20 million and represents the largest
single sub-fund on the platform and we now have our second pooled mortgage fund in the process of being
launched.
- Rent to Own (RTO)
With vacancy risk now looming as one of the biggest risks for residential property investors, our RTO
product is an innovation that delivers a very attractive tenant incentive of equity in the property that they are
renting.
The product creates a tenant equity reserve holding 5% of the units in the sub-fund that owns the
investment property and is used to allocate 1% per year to the tenant for 5 years. The objective is to make
our properties more likely to be chosen when a tenant has several to choose from which should reduce the
risk of vacancy.
-
“Essential Worker” Affordable Housing
It has been widely reported that there is a crisis in the availability of affordable housing in Australia,
particularly in Melbourne and Sydney, and it is expected that the need for affordable housing will only
increase as a result of this pandemic.
In response to this large and growing market opportunity we have been working to bring a product to
market that accesses low-cost government debt to deliver reduced rent for “essential workers”. We have
partnered with a leading tier 1 Community Housing Provider (CHP) and are working on launching a $25
million pilot later in 2020.
- Senior Equity Release (SER)
The slashing of dividends and historically low interest rates have created a crisis for self-funded retirees in
being able to live off the income generated by their superannuation investments and we have been working
on how we can leverage our SER product to assist these retirees.
3
DOMACOM LIMITED
ABN 69 604 384 885
CEO’S REPORT
30 JUNE 2020
None of the government’s COVID-19 initiatives such as Job Keeper, Job Seeker or Homebuilder have
assisted this cohort. By leveraging our SER product retirees can increase their super by selling a fraction of
their house and depositing the proceeds into their super.
The key to this has been obtaining confirmation from the Australian Tax Office (ATO) that a partial disposal
of a property interest complies with the Downsizer legislation. This legislation has up until now required the
retiree to sell their whole house but I am pleased to confirm that on Friday 14th of August 2020 the ATO
provided DomaCom with an “Administrative Binding Agreement” confirming that a partial disposal does in
fact comply with the Downsizer legislation.
This ATO confirmation now positions our SER product as a central method with which financial advisers
can help retirees improve their retirement income whilst remaining in their home.
-
Islamic Mortgage
DomaCom has been working on a new investment option within our fund called “Equity Mortgage” which
aims to deliver leveraged property ownership without using debt. We believe that this product meets
Islamic compliance requirements that prohibit the paying or receiving of interest.
We are not aware of any commercial product that can deliver an Islamic compliant mortgage product in
Australia and we have been working with a large Islamic B2C provider to conform the compliance of this
product to the estimated 700,000 people making up the Australian Islamic community.
We are aiming to enable the Australian Islamic community to purchase homes to live in and end up owning
the homes. This product is less sensitive to the investment outlook as people will be using this to purchase
their family homes.
Outlook & Conclusion
Whilst FY2020 has seen the occurrence of a “1 in 100 year” market dislocation, we believe DomaCom is well
positioned to continue to grow during this challenging period.
On the capital front, FY2020 has seen the company begin a recapitalisation process to give the company time
to continue to develop existing products and find new products that will enable us to deliver the outcome all of
our shareholders are seeking – improved long term outlook with better share price performance.
In FY2020 we welcomed HALO as a cornerstone investor and at the beginning of FY2021 we have been active
in seeking additional capital and are working on transactions for the business that will improve our ongoing
revenue and cashflow.

Review of operations and financial results
The Group is a participant in the financial services market in Australia. DomaCom Limited is the holding
company and DomaCom Australia Limited, DomaCom Platform Services Pty Ltd and DomaCom Singapore
Private Limited are 100% owned subsidiaries of the DomaCom Group.
DomaCom Australia Limited is the investment manager of the DomaCom Fund (“the Fund”) (Managed
Investment Scheme). The Fund allows investors to hold fractional interests in underlying assets, that they
themselves have selected or their advisers on their behalf.
During the last 12 months the assets under management in the DomaCom Fund have increased from $56
million to $71 million which represents a 27% increase. DomaCom continues to fractionalise assets in the
following areas residential housing, residential developments, commercial property, Land banking and in the
renewable energy sector. With the continued product development of the last few years DomaCom is now able
to crowdfund both the debt and equity funding for the specific property assets, which has increased the
attractiveness of the DomaCom model and also allowed assets to be onboarded more quickly.
COVID-19
DomaCom has not been significantly impacted operationally by COVID-19. As a cloud based business staff can
work effectively from home. Our main target market is the financial planning industry which is generally well
placed to interact using online services.
Although there was an initial flattening in FUM growth in March/April 2020, FUM grew by 11% during the quarter
ended 30 June 2020, demonstrating the ability to continue to operate during COVID-19
COVID-19s recent impact on self-funded retirees’ income has increased the market for SER and we are seeking
to obtain regulatory clarity on how the product works with the Government’s Downsizer legislation.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
30 JUNE 2020
The Group recognised income of $50,000 for amounts received from the Australian Taxation Office from the
COVID-19 Boosting Cash Flow for Employers program.
New Developments since last year
New Developments since last year are summarised for the following product offerings:
(cid:120) Rent to Own
(cid:120) Affordable Housing
(cid:120) Diversified Pooled Mortgage Fund
(cid:120) Update on Senior Equity Release
Rent to Own
During the financial year DomaCom introduced innovative Rent to Own (RTO) concept, and has just completed
their first property, with more in the pipeline. This represents a win/win approach amongst the property
developers, the tenants and the investors that provide capital. The concept works such that properties are
attainable from property developers in markets such as Melbourne and Sydney where there are over supply of
housing who offer price discounts to the investors, DomaCom looks to attract a long term tenant ( say 5 years),
which is attractive for tenants having that length of security and in doing so gift the tenants equity representing
1% for each year for 5 years of the investors capital. The long-term tenant is more likely to look after the
property as they also have equity in the property and can look to increase their equity by buying further units on
DomaCom’s secondary market. It is attractive for investors who are receiving discount from Developers who
forgo spending this money on marketing by passing the discount onto the buyers.
Affordable Housing
DomaCom continues to work in the Affordable Housing space as it believes that its model is very well placed to
raise Funds from the capital markets, which in turn helps support the supply of Housing for Essential workers.
DomaCom is working closely with Community Housing Providers and the National Housing Finance and
Investment Corporation. DomaCom believes the work undertaken in this space will provide benefits into the
2020/2021 financial year.
Diversified Pooled Mortgage Portfolio
In 2019 DomaCom was successful in delivering a diversified Mortgage Portfolio for a key client. That portfolio
continued to attract assets during the current financial year. Off the back of this development a pooled mortgage
fund has been developed for another key client. This product allows the client via the DomaCom platform to
select mortgages that are most suitable, based on type of security i.e. commercial, residential, or industrial,
length of time, loan to valuation ratio and interest rate. This will represent another source of debt funding for
projects that are onboarded to the DomaCom platform.
Senior Equity Release Product Update
The Senior Equity Release Product was launched in June 2019 after over 6 years in development and working
closely with the Australian and Securities Investment Commission. This is a first as no other company in
Australia has delivered a regulated Equity Release product to the Seniors market.
This product adds another important piece of the puzzle to the retirement landscape and will allow Financial
Planners increased choice and flexibility when dealing with Retirees and their decision with regards to their
options concerning remaining in the family house, downsizing or moving into aged care accommodation.
The DomaCom product allows Retirees to sell a part of their home to other investors and in return receive a
lump sum payment or a regular income payment or a combination of the two. This will allow Retirees to enjoy
their retirement years. Research indicates that many Retirees wish to remain living in their family homes and in
the communities, they are familiar with. This particular cohort have not had the years of compulsory
superannuation and therefore the family home is often their largest asset. This product requires that the
Retirees seek advice from an Accredited Senior Equity release adviser to ensure they understand the nature of
the product and the fees and costs.

being properly managed.

also directors of an entity that has a substantial security holding in the Company. The majority of the Directors
therefore are not independent. Independence is maintained through a combination of ensuring conflicts are
declared, requiring conflicted directors to be excluded from discussions and decision making that may be
materially impacted by conflicted interests and the Independent Chairman having the casting vote.

Risk Management Policy (Principle 7.1-7.4)
This policy sets out how the Company evaluates the effectiveness of its risk management framework to ensure
that its internal control systems and processes are monitored and updated on an ongoing basis.
The Board is responsible for reviewing the Company’s risk management framework, including adopting relevant
internal controls, risk management processes and corporate governance policies and practices which it believes
are appropriate for the Company’s business and which are designed to promote the responsible management
and conduct of the Company.
The Board at least annually reports on the effectiveness of the Company’s risk management and internal control
policies and practices. The Company does not currently have an internal audit function. The current structure
for reviewing risks, controls and procedures within the Board is considered appropriate at the Company’s
current stage of growth and size.
The Board has reviewed the risk management framework during the financial year ended 30 June 2020.
The Company monitors its exposure to all risks, including economic, environmental and social sustainability
risks. Material business risks are described in the annual report, which also outlines the Company’s activities,
performance during the year, financial position and main business strategies.
Compliance with ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations
The Board has evaluated the Company’s current corporate governance policies and practices in light of the ASX
Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. A brief summary of the approach currently adopted
by the Company is set out below:
The Company complies with all of the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations including,
as not specifically addressed above:
- That at each AGM, the external auditor attends and is available to answer questions from security holders
relevant to the audit. (Principle 4.3)

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
30 JUNE 2020
- Recommendation 2.1.(a) – the Board should establish a nomination committee comprising at least 3
members, a majority of independent directors and chaired by an independent director, and should not be
the same person as the CEO of the entity.
- Recommendation 2.4 – a majority of the Board of a listed entity should be independent directors.
- Recommendation 7.1.(a) –the Board should have a committee or committees to oversee risks comprising
at least 3 members, a majority of independent directors and chaired by an independent director, and should
not be the same person as the CEO of the entity.
- Recommendation 8.1.(a) – the Board should establish a remuneration committee comprising at least 3
members, a majority of independent directors and chaired by an independent director, and should not be
the same person as the CEO of the entity.
The Board has carefully considered its size and composition, together with the specialist knowledge of its
directors, and formed the view that based on its current composition, it has the necessary skills and motivation
to ensure that the Company performs strongly, and there is sufficient accountability in the structure of the Board,
to ensure the outcomes and objectives sought by the ASX Guidelines are achieved. Having regard for the size
of the DomaCom Group, the Board considered that incorporating the risk management and nomination and
remuneration procedures into the function of the Board has been an appropriate way of addressing the
accountability and efficiencies sought to be achieved by the ASX Guidelines.
The majority of the Board are not independent as two directors are also executives of the Company and two
directors are also directors of an entity that has a substantial security holding in the Company. Independence is
maintained through a combination of ensuring conflicts are declared, requiring conflicted directors to be
excluded from discussions and decision making that may be materially impacted by conflicted interests and the
Independent Chairman having the casting vote.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 1: GENERAL INFORMATION AND STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
The financial report includes the financial statements and notes of DomaCom Limited (the “Company”) and its
Controlled Entities (the “Group”).
The consolidated general purpose financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative
pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards
results in full compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB). DomaCom Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the
financial statements.
The financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020 were approved and authorised for issue by the Board of
Directors on 27 August 2020.
NOTE 2: NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED
New Standards adopted at 1 July 2019
The following standards and interpretations have been recently issued and have been adopted by the Group for the
year ended 30 June 2020.
AASB 16 Leases
AASB 16 Leases replaces AASB 117 Leases and associated interpretations and became mandatorily effective for
financial years beginning after 1 January 2019. Accordingly, these standards apply for the first time to these
financial statements.
At transition on 1 July 2019 there was one property lease with 1 month remaining for $11,142. The lease was
subsequently renewed for a period of 12 months ending 31 July 2020. The Group has benefited from the use of
hindsight for determining the lease term when considering the option to extend the lease and a right-of-use asset of
$145,631 was established for this lease at 1 July 2019 with a term of 13 months. There was no impairment of the
asset during the current period. The cost of the asset of $145,631 less depreciation of $134,429 during period
resulted in the disclosure of a Right-of-Use of $11,202 at 30 June 2020. The incremental annual borrowing rate
applied under AASB 16 was 8%. The 13 months of operating lease liabilities before discounting of $151,530 were
discounted by $5,899 at the incremental borrowing rate to create an operating lease liability at transition of
$145,631. The property lease was accounted for as an operating lease under AASB 117 Leases in the prior period.
The new Standard has been adopted using the modified retrospective approach such that the comparative
numbers for the prior period have not been restated. The opening balance of retained earnings has not been
restated. All other leases at transition and in existence in the current and prior periods are short term leases and
therefore the expense has been accounted for on a straight-line basis.
AASB Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments
AASB Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments became mandatorily effective for financial years
beginning after 1 January 2019. It clarifies how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements in AASB
112 Income Taxes when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments.
As there are no uncertain tax positions within the DomaCom tax group, the adoption of the interpretation did not
have any impact on the disclosures or the amounts recognised in the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

DOMACOM LIMITED
ABN 69 604 384 885
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Overall considerations
The significant accounting policies that have been used in the preparation of these financial statements are
summarised below.
The financial statements have been prepared using the measurement bases specified by Australian Accounting
Standards for each type of asset, liability, income and expense. The measurement bases are more fully described
in the accounting policies below.
Segmental Reporting
Financial information reported internally used for the allocation of resources and assessing performance is
currently presented without reference to segments. Therefore profit and loss, revenues and expenses and assets
and liabilities have been presented without segmentation.
(b) Basis of consolidation
The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Parent Company and all of its subsidiaries as of 30 June
2020. The Parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with
the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiary. All subsidiaries
have a reporting date of 30 June.
All transactions and balances between Group companies are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealised
gains and losses on transactions between Group Companies. Where unrealised losses on intra-group asset sales
are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from a Group perspective.
Amounts reported in the financial statements of Subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure
consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are
recognised from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary’s profit or loss and net
assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or loss of subsidiaries
between the owners of the Parent and the non-controlling interests based on their respective ownership interests.
(c) Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian Dollars ($AUD), which is also the functional
currency of the Parent Company.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective Group entity, using the
exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and
losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items at year
end exchange rates are recognised in profit or loss.
Non-monetary items are not retranslated at year-end and are measured at historical cost (translated using the
exchange rates at the date of the transaction), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value which are
translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(c) Foreign currency translation (continued)
Foreign operations
In the Group’s financial statements, all assets, liabilities and transactions of Group entities with a functional
currency other than the $AUD are translated into $AUD upon consolidation. The functional currency of the Entities
in the Group has remained unchanged during the reporting period.
On consolidation, assets and liabilities have been translated into $AUD at the closing rate at the reporting date.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity have been treated as assets and
liabilities of the foreign entity and translated into $AUD at the closing rate. Income and expenses have been
translated into $AUD at the average rate over the reporting period. Exchange differences are charged / credited to
other comprehensive income and recognised in the currency translation reserve in equity. On disposal of a foreign
operation the cumulative translation differences recognised in equity are reclassified to profit or loss and
recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
(d) Revenue
To determine whether to recognise revenue, the Group follows a 5-step process:
1. Identifying the contract with a customer
2. Identifying the performance obligations
3. Determining the transaction price
4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations
5. Recognising revenue when/as performance obligation(s) are satisfied.
Revenue is recognised either at a point in time or over time, when (or as) the Group satisfies performance
obligations by transferring the promised services to its customers.
The Group recognises contract liabilities for consideration received in respect of unsatisfied performance
obligations and reports these amounts as other liabilities in the statement of financial position. Similarly, if the
Group satisfies a performance obligation before it receives the consideration, the Group recognises either a
contract asset or a receivable in its statement of financial position, depending on whether something other than the
passage of time is required before the consideration is due. Interest income is reported on an accruals basis.
Revenue arises mainly from the investment management services provided to the DomaCom Fund. This is
recognized at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied.
The DomaCom Group may be entitled to claim a refundable tax credit for eligible research and development
expenditure (eg the Research and Development Tax Incentive regime in Australia or other investment allowances).
The DomaCom Group accounts for a claim as an offset against eligible capitalised R&D expenditure. To the extent
the claim relates to costs that were expensed as they did not meet the capitalisation criteria under AASB 138
Intangible Assets, this amount is recognised as Income recognised from research and development incentive at a
point in time.
(e) Operating expenses
Operating expenses are recognised in profit or loss upon utilisation of the service or at the date of their origin.

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(f) Intangible assets
Recognition of other intangible assets
Acquired intangible assets
Acquired computer software is capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and install the specific
software.
Internally developed intangibles
Expenditure on the research phase of projects to develop the software platform is recognised as an expense as
incurred.
Costs that are directly attributable to a project’s development phase are recognised as intangible assets, provided
they meet the following recognition requirements:
(cid:120) the development costs can be measured reliably
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
the project is technically and commercially feasible
the Group intends to and has sufficient resources to complete the project
the Group has the ability to use or sell the asset
the software will generate probable future economic benefits
Development costs not meeting these criteria for capitalisation are expensed as incurred.
Subsequent measurement
All intangible assets, including the internally developed software platform, are accounted for using the cost model
whereby capitalised costs are amortised on a systematic basis over their estimated useful lives, as these assets
are considered finite. Residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each reporting date. In addition, they are
subject to impairment testing. Any capitalised internally developed asset that is not yet complete is not amortised
but is subject to impairment testing. The following useful lives are applied:
- Software: 5 years
- Software platform costs: 5 years (see Note 3r)
The DomaCom Group may be entitled to claim a refundable tax credit for eligible research and development
expenditure (eg the Research and Development Tax Incentive regime in Australia or other investment allowances).
The DomaCom Group accounts for a claim as an offset against eligible capitalised R&D expenditure to the extent
the claim relates to capitalised expenditure.
Subsequent expenditures on the maintenance of computer software and the software platform will be expensed as
incurred.
When an intangible asset is disposed of, the gain or loss on disposal is determined as the difference between the
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and is recognised in profit or loss within other income or other
expenses.

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(g) Property, plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is initially recognised at acquisition cost, including any costs directly attributable to bringing
the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the
Group’s management.
Plant and equipment is subsequently measured using the cost model, cost less subsequent depreciation and
impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised on a straight-line basis to write down the cost less estimated residual value of plant and
equipment. The following useful lives are applied:
- Furniture & fittings: 5 years
- Plant & office equipment: 5 years
- Computer equipment: 3 years
Material residual value estimates and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually.
Gains or losses arising on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between
the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in profit or loss within other
income or other expenses.
(h) Leased assets
The following accounting policy is applicable from 1 July 2019.
The Group as a lessee
For any new contracts entered into on or after 1 January 2019, the Group considers whether a contract is, or
contains a lease. A lease is defined as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the
underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration’. To apply this definition the Group assesses
whether the contract meets three key evaluations which are whether:
• the contract contains an identified asset, which is either explicitly identified in the contract or implicitly specified by
being identified at the time the asset is made available to the Group
• the Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset
throughout the period of use, considering its rights within the defined scope of the contract
• the Group has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Group assess
whether it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of use.
Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee
At lease commencement date, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet.
The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any
initial direct costs incurred by the Group, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at the end of
the lease, and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any incentives
received).
The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the
earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The Group also assesses
the right-of-use asset for impairment when such indicators exist.
At the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments
unpaid at that date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available or the
Group’s incremental borrowing rate.

DOMACOM LIMITED
ABN 69 604 384 885
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(h) Leased Assets (continued)
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed payments (including in
substance fixed), variable payments based on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual
value guarantee and payments arising from options reasonably certain to be exercised.
Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for payments made and increased for interest. It is
remeasured to reflect any reassessment or modification, or if there are changes in in-substance fixed payments.
When the lease liability is remeasured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of-use asset, or profit
and loss if the right-of-use asset is already reduced to zero.
The Group has elected to account for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets using the practical
expedients. Instead of recognising a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are
recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Accounting policy applicable before 1 July 2019
Where the Group is a lessee, payments on operating lease agreements are recognised as an expense on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Associated costs, such as maintenance and insurance, are expensed as
incurred.
(i)
Impairment testing of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment
For impairment assessment purposes, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely
independent cash inflows (cash-generating units). As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment
and some are tested at cash-generating unit level.
Individual assets or cash-generating units 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 or cash-generating unit's carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use. To determine
the value-in-use, management estimates expected future cash flows from each cash-generating unit and
determines a suitable interest rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The data used for
impairment testing procedures are directly linked to the Group's latest approved budget, adjusted as necessary to
exclude the effects of future reorganisations and asset enhancements. Discount factors are determined
individually for each cash-generating unit and reflect management’s assessment of respective risk profiles, such as
market and asset-specific risks factors.
Impairment losses for cash-generating units reduce first the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to that cash-
generating unit. Any remaining impairment loss is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash-generating unit.
With the exception of goodwill, all assets are subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment loss
previously recognised may no longer exist.
An impairment charge is reversed if the cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount exceeds its carrying amount.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(j) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the financial instrument, and are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transactions costs, except
for those carried at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured initially at fair value. Subsequent
measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or
when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred.
A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.
Trade and other receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted
in an active market. After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method, less provision for impairment. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The
Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.
Individually significant receivables are considered for impairment when they are past due or when other objective
evidence is received that a specific counterparty will default. Receivables that are not considered to be individually
impaired are reviewed for impairment in Companies, which are determined by reference to the industry and region
of a counterparty and other shared credit risk characteristics. The impairment estimate is then based on the
expected credit loss.
Classification and subsequent measurement of financial liabilities
The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, and related party loans
Financial Liabilities
Financial liabilities are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument's fair value that are reported in profit or loss
are included within finance costs or finance income.
Compound Instruments
The component parts of compound instruments (convertible notes) issued by the Company are classified
separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and
the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. Conversion options that will be settled by the
exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the Company’s own equity
instruments is an equity instrument.
At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for
similar non-convertible instruments. This amount is recognised as a liability on an amortised cost basis using the
effective interest method until extinguished upon conversion or at the instrument’s maturity date.
The conversion option classified as equity is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from
the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognised and included in equity, net of income tax
effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. In addition, the conversion option classified as equity will remain in
equity until the conversion option is exercised, in which case, the balance recognised in equity will be transferred to
issued capital. Where the conversion option remains unexercised at the maturity date of the convertible note, the
balance recognised in equity will be transferred to retained profits/ accumulated losses. No gain or loss is
recognised in profit or loss upon conversion or expiration of the conversion option.

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(j) Financial Instruments (continued)
Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the convertible notes are allocated to the liability and equity
components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity
component are recognised directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in
the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortised over the lives of the convertible notes using the
effective interest method.
(k) Income taxes
Tax expense recognised in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognised in other
comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims from, the Australian Taxation
Office (ATO) and other fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods, that are unpaid at the
reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss in the financial statements.
Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by
the end of the reporting period.
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. However, deferred tax is not provided on the initial
recognition of goodwill, or on the initial recognition of an asset or liability unless the related transaction is a
business combination or affects tax or accounting profit. Deferred tax on temporary differences associated with
investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures is not provided if reversal of these temporary differences can be
controlled by the Group and it is probable that reversal will not occur in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply to their
respective period of realisation, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting
period.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to be utilised against future
taxable income, based on the Group’s forecast of future operating results which is adjusted for significant non-
taxable income and expenses and specific limits to the use of any unused tax loss or credit. Deferred tax liabilities
are always provided for in full.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Group has a right and intention to set off current tax
assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.
Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognised as a component of tax income or expense in profit or
loss, except where they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income (such as the revaluation
of land) or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive
income or equity, respectively.
(l) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with other short-term, highly
liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant
risk of changes in value.

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(m) Equity, reserves and dividend payments
Share capital represents the fair value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated with the
issuing of shares are deducted from share capital, net of any related income tax benefits.
Retained earnings includes all current and prior period retained profits.
Dividend distributions payable to equity shareholders are included in other liabilities when the dividends have been
approved in a general meeting prior to the reporting date.
All transactions with owners of the parent are recorded separately within equity.
(n) Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits, including annual leave entitlement, are current liabilities included in employee
benefits, measured at the undiscounted amount that the Group expects to pay as a result of the unused
entitlement.
Share-based payments
Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees via the Group or Shareholders for no cash
consideration.
The fair value of shares granted is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in
equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the employees
become unconditionally entitled to the shares.
(o) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions for legal disputes, onerous contracts or other claims are recognised when the Group has a present legal
or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be
required from the Group and amounts can be estimated reliably. Timing or amount of the outflow may still be
uncertain.
Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the most
reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present
obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in
settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted to their
present values, where the time value of money is material.
Any reimbursement that the Group can be virtually certain to collect from a third party with respect to the obligation
is recognised as a separate asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related provision.
In those cases where the possible outflow of economic resources as a result of present obligations is considered
improbable or remote, no liability is recognised.

(p) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST
incurred is not recoverable from the Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of
acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial
position are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST components of
investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
(q) Going Concern
As a developing business the Group has experienced a loss of $5,778,671 and negative operating cash flows as
set out in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The Group has net working capital of $850,299 and a net
liability position of $276,366.
The continuing viability of the Group and its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Group
being successful in continuing to grow Funds under Management (“FUM”) within the DomaCom Fund and the
ability to raise capital. A detailed sales pipeline and forecast is continuously updated and reported to the Board on
a regular basis.
The Group has demonstrated an ability to adapt to changing market conditions and develop various product
offerings to meet investor needs. The strategy for continued growth includes further expanding the direct to
consumer distribution channel that will work alongside DomaCom’s established financial adviser network. Further
significant product developments are also expected to grow FUM, including the recently introduced Rent-To-Own
product that enables tenants to take an equity interest in their rental properties. Also a unique Shariah compliant
product is being developed targeting the Australian Islamic community and other communities that are prohibited
from borrowing money. In addition DomaCom is focused on providing investment opportunities within the themes of
regional investment, affordable housing and renewable energy. The success of these opportunities is constantly
monitored within the sales pipeline review process.
Cash flow forecasts are presented and discussed at each Board Meeting. The need to raise additional funds is
carefully monitored. DomaCom intends to raise additional capital to meet its short to medium term operating
requirements. The maturity dates of the Convertible Notes were extended by 12 months to reduce the amount of
short term capital required. As an ASX listed entity DomaCom has been able to successfully complete 2 Private
Placements and an Entitlement Offer during the year ended 30 June 2020.
The COVID-19 has had a minimum operational impact on DomaCom with staff successfully transitioning to remote
working. Also our main target market is the financial planning industry which is generally well placed to interact
using online services. Although there was an initial flattening in FUM growth in March/April 2020, FUM grew by
11% during the quarter ended 30 June 2020, demonstrating the ability to continue to operate during COVID-19.
The Group recognised income of $50,000 for amounts received from the Australian Taxation Office from the
COVID-19 Boosting Cash Flow for Employers program.
If these matters are not achieved, there may be significant uncertainty as to whether the Group will continue as a
going concern and, therefore, whether it will realise its assets and settle its liabilities in the normal course of
business and at the amounts stated in the financial report. The Directors believe that the Group will be able to
access sufficient sources of funds and implement cost control measures if required and are satisfied that the Group
will continue as a going concern. The Group has shown the ability to raise capital during the current year.
Accordingly, the financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. No adjustments have been made to
the financial report relating to the recoverability and classification of the asset carrying amounts or the amount and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.

(r) Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies and estimation uncertainty
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and
assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
Significant management judgements
The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of the Group that have
the most significant effect on the financial statements.
Capitalisation of internally developed software platform
Distinguishing the research and development phases of the internally developed software platform and determining
whether the recognition requirements for the capitalisation of development costs are met requires judgement. After
capitalisation, management monitors whether the recognition requirements continue to be met and whether there
are any indicators that capitalised costs may be impaired.
Useful economic life of internally developed software platform
Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date, based on the
expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical obsolescence that may change
the utility of software. During the year management determined that the useful life of the internally developed
software remains unchanged from the prior year.
Recognition of deferred tax assets
The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognised is based on an assessment of the probability of the
Group’s future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilised. In addition, significant
judgement is required in assessing the impact of any legal or economic limits or uncertainties in various tax
jurisdictions. No deferred tax assets were recognized due to uncertainty of recoverability.

The Group recognised income of $50,000 for amounts received from the Australian Taxation Office from the
COVID-19 Boosting Cash Flow for Employers program.
In the prior year the Group claimed refundable tax credits for eligible research and development expenditure. The
Group accounts for a claim partially as an offset against eligible capitalised R&D expenditure. Income recognised
from research and development incentive represents the amount of the claim that does not meet the criteria for
offset to the extent that it has been received for expenses that did not meet the capitalisation criteria under AASB

As set out in Note 2, the Group adopted IFRS 16 with effect from 1 July 2019. At transition there was one
property lease for the Melbourne office with 1 month remaining for $11,142. The lease was subsequently
renewed for a period of 12 months ending 31 July 2020. The Group has benefited from the use of hindsight for
determining the lease term when considering the option to extend the lease and a right-of-use asset of $145,631
was established for this lease at 1 July 2019 with a term of 13 months.
With the exception of short-term leases and leases of low-value underlying assets, each lease is reflected on the
balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability.
The Melbourne office lease is non-cancellable. The Group is prohibited from selling or pledging the underlying
leased assets as security. The Group must keep the property in a good state of repair.

The Director Long Term Incentive Plan and Employee Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) was established as a
retention strategy and an incentive for staff and directors to continue to work hard for the DomaCom Group.
Through obtaining equity, staff are motivated to strive to make the DomaCom Group successful as they will
ultimately share in the success.
All Directors and eligible employees were granted performance rights in the years ended 30 June 2015 and 30
June 2018. No performance rights were issued during the year ended 30 June 2020.
Vesting gives the holder of a Performance Right the right to convert some or all of their Performance Rights into
ordinary shares. Each Performance Right entitles its owner to one ordinary share in the Company on conversion.
The performance rights issued in the year ended 30 June 2018 expire on 5th April 2021 and may be exercised at
any time up to that date.
The performance rights under the employee and non-executive director and executive director programs have an

needs by monitoring forecast cash inflows and outflows due in day-to-day business. Net cash requirements are
compared to available cash in order to maintain a cash surplus. Funding for long-term liquidity needs sourced
through additional capital raising.
The Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities have contractual maturities (including interest payments where
applicable) as summarised below:

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty fails to discharge an obligation to the Group. The Group’s maximum
exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at the reporting date, as
summarised in Note 7.
The Group continuously monitors defaults of customers and other counterparties, identified either by individual or
group and incorporates this information into its credit risk controls. The Group’s policy is to deal only with
creditworthy counterparties.
The Group’s management considers that all the above financial assets that are not impaired or past due for each
of the reporting dates under review are of good credit quality.
In respect of trade and other receivables, the Group is not exposed to any significant credit risk exposure to any
single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics.
The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable
banks with high quality external credit ratings.
Market risk analysis
The Group is exposed to market risk through currency and interest rate risk.
Foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities which expose the Group to currency risk are
disclosed below. The amounts shown are those translated into $AUD at the closing rate:

Market risk analysis (continued)
The following table illustrates the sensitivity of profit and equity in regards to the Group’s financial assets and
financial liabilities and the $SGD/$AUD exchange rate ‘all other things being equal’. It includes only outstanding
foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the year end for a change in foreign
currency rates. It assumes a +/- 10% change of the $SGD/$AUD exchange rate for the year ended at 30 June
2020 (2019: 10%).
If the $SGD had strengthened against the $AUD by 10% (2019: 10%) this would have had the following impact
through a decrease in the Foreign Currency Translation Reserve:

For a 10% weakening of $SGD against $AUD there would be a comparable increase in the Foreign Currency
Translation Reserve.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
The Company’s policy is to minimise interest rate risk exposures. Interest income is earned on deposits held. The
rate is reviewed on a regular basis to ensure it remains in line with the expected rate of return. Interest expense
incurred on any short term borrowings is assessed to ensure it is in line with market expectations. The Company’s
policy is not to enter into any long term borrowing.
The following table illustrates the sensitivity of profit and equity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates
of +/- 1% (2019: +/- 1%). These changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of
current market conditions. The calculations are based on a change in the average market interest rate for each
period, and the financial instruments held at each reporting date that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. All
other variables are held constant.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of DomaCom Limited
Report on the audit of the financial report
Opinion

We have audited the financial report of DomaCom Limited (the Company) and its Controlled Entities (the Group), which
comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, the consolidated statement of profit or loss
and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash
flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant
accounting policies, and the Directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
a giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its performance for the year
ended on that date; and
b complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are
further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are
independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and
the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 3(q) in the financial statements, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $5,778,671
during the year ended 30 June 2020, and as of that date, the Group has effective net working capital of $850,299 and a net
liability position of $276,366. As stated in Note 3(q), these events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that
may cast doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial report as a
whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the
matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below
to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Capitalisation of Software development costs (Note 10)
The Group capitalises costs that are directly attributable to the
development of intangibles assets in accordance with AASB
138 Intangible Assets.
AASB 138 provides that an entity may only capitalise costs
that meet specific capitalisation criteria.
This area is a key audit matter due to the inherent subjectivity
required in determining whether the costs capitalised meet the
requirements of AASB 138.
Our procedures included, amongst others:
enquiring with management to obtain and document
an understanding of their process and the design of
controls relating to the capitalisation of software
development costs and their compliance with AASB
138;
evaluating the entity’s position that the underlying
assets is in the development phase, as well as the
entity’s ability to demonstrate technical feasibility,
that the asset will generate probable future economic
benefits, the ability to bring the asset to completion
for use or sale, amongst other requirements of AASB
138;
obtaining supporting model and on a sample basis,
agreeing internal salary costs and other costs
capitalised to supporting documentation;
assessing the eligibility of expenditure capitalised for
compliance with development recognition
requirements under AASB 138;
assessing the allocation of costs between separately
identifiable intangible assets; and
assessing the adequacy of the relevant disclosures in
the financial statements.
Intangible asset – Impairment (Note 3(f) and (r))
Given the nature of the industry in which the Group operates,
there is a risk that there could be a material impairment to
goodwill and intangible asset balances.
AASB 136 Impairment of Assets requires that an entity shall
assess at the end of each reporting period possible internal or
external indicators of impairment. If any indication exists, the
entity shall estimate the recoverable amount of the asset.
This area is a key audit matter due to the inherent subjectivity
required in measuring the recoverable amount.
Our procedures included, amongst others:
obtaining from management a paper documenting
their assessment relating to the Group’s Cash
Generating Unit (“CGU”) and potential impairment
indicators;
evaluating management’s assessed carrying value of
the intangible asset calculated based on its expected
fair value less cost to sell; and
assessing the adequacy of the relevant disclosures in
the financial statements.
Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the
Group’s financial report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report
thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or
otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
58
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial report
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the Directors
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern,
disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the
Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance
is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing
Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions
of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance
Standards Board website at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1_2020.pdf. This description forms part of
our auditor’s report.
Report on the remuneration report
Opinion on the remuneration report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 10 to 13 of the Directors’ report for the year ended 30 June
2020.

300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Responsibilities
The Directors of the Group are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report,
