From the Chairman
Dear fellow shareholders,
Despite the challenges we faced in the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, we have continued to strive to protect our business sustainability. With Star
Vegas back to operation since 18 June 2022, we believe that Donaco will recover its performance and prevail during this pandemic.
For the financial year, our Group reported statutory net loss after tax of A$16.5 million. There were no non-recurring items in FY22, compared to
$37.9m incurred in FY21. Underlying net loss after tax was A$16.5 million for FY22, down from underlying net loss after tax of A$12.7 million in
FY21.
Our group recorded a negative EBITDA of A$4.4 million for the financial year 2022, down from A$0.1 million in the prior year, and generated an
underlying net loss after tax of A$16.5 million. Group revenues of A$2.4 million were recorded, compared to A$10.3 million in the prior year, and
the group recorded a negative operational cash flow of A$5.7 million, a decline from prior year of negative A$4.5 million. This is due to Star Vegas
only operating on a limited basis for almost 1 month, starting from June 2022. However, the group recorded a positive cash flow from financing
activities, an increase to A$4.6 million from prior year of negative A$1.5m. Consequently, our group’s cash and cash equivalent were AU$6.1
million as at 30 June 2022, slightly lower than prior year balance of AU$6.3 million.
Looking forward, with loan facilities provided by our Chief Executive Officer & Executive Director, Mr Lee Bug Huy, together with the resumption of
limited operations in Star Vegas, we believe that financial year 2023 will be the year to gradually recover our business performance in Cambodia
and Vietnam.

From the Chief Executive Officer
Dear Shareholders,
Financial year 2022 was another challenging year for our group under the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite that, I’m proud that our group has
continued to exhibit financial discipline and tight control measures to preserve Star Vegas, Aristo and shareholder value.
We are pleased to inform you that Star Vegas has recommenced casino operations from 18 June 2022, amidst the Covid-19 pandemic. With Star
Vegas operating on a limited basis for almost 1 month during financial year 2022, Star Vegas' overall performance has fallen against prior
corresponding period, with its EBITDA decreasing by 135% to a loss of A$1.5 million. This led to a 91% decline in net gaming revenue to A$0.8
million, and a 54% decline in non-gaming revenue to A$0.2 million. With the reopening of the Cambodia-Thailand land borders in May 2022, we
expect that Star Vegas' performance will gradually recover in the next financial year.
Aristo reopened on 8 May 2020 and has been operating on a limited basis ever since while the border with China remains closed. This has been
reflected in Aristo’s venue performance as its EBITDA decreased by 77% to a loss of A$0.2 million. Aristo's table games performed better in FY22
compared to last year and resulted in an increase of 40% in net gaming revenue to A$1.2 million. On the other hand, Aristo's non-gaming revenue
fell 19% to A$0.3 million. Aristo will continue to adapt to border changes, with local management having the discretion to tailor operations to local
conditions.
During the period, Donaco repaid the outstanding balance of US$6.8 million (approximately A$9.9 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) from Mega
Bank, with the final instalment settled on 30 December 2022. The group entered into additional shareholder loan facility agreements for US$12.8
million (AU$18.6 million at the 30 June 2022 spot rate) for continued balance sheet and cash flow protection.

Result Highlights
Underlying net loss after tax (NLAT) attributable to owners of the Company of A$16.5 million, down from NLAT of A$12.7 million in FY21. Revenue
at Star Vegas and Aristo continued to be severely affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in the temporary closure of the Star
Vegas casino from 27 April 2021 to 18 June 2022 and Aristo operating only on a limited basis from 8 May 2020. The borders between Cambodia
and Thailand were closed until recently, while the borders between Vietnam and China remain closed.

Star Vegas in Cambodia reopened on 25 September 2020 at limited capacity following Government approval after being closed from 1 April 2020.
Star Vegas again closed from 27 April 2021 following the order from the Cambodian local Government for the temporary closure of all casinos in
the Banteay Meanchay region until further notice. Limited casino operations has led to a 91% decline in gaming revenue and a 54% decrease in
non-gaming revenue at Star Vegas. Operating expenses were down 50% as cost reduction measures were proactively implemented to minimise
the COVID-19 financial impact. The casino has since reopened for limited operations on 18 June 2022 and has seen recovering average daily
headcount as the land border between Cambodia and Thailand has now also reopened.
Aristo International Hotel - FY22 v FY21
● Net Gaming Revenue up 40% to A$1.2 million
● Non-Gaming Revenue down 19% to $A0.3 million
●
●
● VIP Gross Win rate 0%
EBITDA up to a loss of A$0.2 million
Property Level NPAT up to loss of A$3.5 million
Aristo was impacted by the drop in foreign visitors as the border with China remains closed. Average daily visitations reduced by 7.7% and VIP
turnover by 100%. Despite this, net revenue increased by 24% from FY2021. Operating expenses decreased by 18% compared to FY21, as robust
cost reduction measures were implemented to minimise the financial impact from COVID-19. Aristo will continue to adapt to border changes with
local management having the discretion to tailor operations to local conditions.
Capital Management
During the period, Donaco repaid the outstanding loan balance of US$6.8 million (A$9.9 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) from Mega Bank,
with the final instalment paid on 30 December 2021. There is no further outstanding loan with Mega Bank as at 30 June 2022.
An unsecured loan facility agreement was signed in July 2021 with Mr Lee Bug Huy, the current Chief Executive Officer and executive director, for
a loan of US$7.8 million (AU$11.3 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate). An additional loan facility agreement was entered into on 2 May 2022 for
an additional US$5 million (AU$7.3 million at the 30 June 2022 spot rate). As at 30 June 2022, US$10.4 million had been drawn down on the loan,
leaving an unutilised portion of US $2.4 million (AU$15.1 million and AU$3.4 million respectively as at 30 June 2022 spot rate). The majority of
the loan terms are materially the same as those of the Mega Bank facility, including an interest rate of 6% per annum. The original loan facility of
US$7.8 million (AU$11.3 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) is due to be repaid three years from the first drawdown, while the additional loan
facility of US$5 million (AU$7.3 million at the 30 June 2022 spot rate) is due to be repaid four years from the first drawdown under the additional
facility agreement. The lender however may at any time require early repayment with a minimum of one month's prior notice. The lender has
provided a letter of financial support to Donaco which states that he will not withdraw or call upon the loan should it affect any creditor of the
Company in a detrimental way. Such financial support is provided for the foreseeable future covering a minimum period of 12 months from the
date of issue of the audited financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022.
Significant changes in the state of affairs
Apart from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as set out under Review of operations and financial results and elsewhere in the Directors'
report, there were no other significant changes in the state of affairs during the financial year.
Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year
DSV casino licence renewal
On 19 August 2022, DNA Star Vegas was presented with its casino licence which will expire on 31 December 2026.
Additional funding
Drawdowns of US$0.7 million, US$0.3 million and US$1.2 million (AU$1.1 million, AU$0.4 million and AU$1.7 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate)
were made in July, August and September 2022 respectively under the additional loan facility entered into on 2 May 2022. However in August
2022, an amount of US$0.3 million (AU$0.4 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) was repaid to the lender, as the DSV casino has generated
sufficient funds following the resumption of limited operations on 18 June 2022. The unutilised portion of the additional loan facility is therefore
US$0.5 million (AU$0.7 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate). A further US$0.2m (AU$0.3m as at 30 June 2022) is expected to be repaid in late
September 2022.
COVID-19 pandemic
Subsequent to year end, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve with the easing of travel restrictions by the Thai and
Cambodian governments, as a result of high vaccination rates and declining COVID-19 infection rates in the region. Management continues to
place a heavy emphasis on continued cost control measures and mitigation activities in order to reduce operating expenses and to preserve cash
balances. The consolidated entity will continue to monitor the potential implications of the ongoing pandemic and the impact on operations.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2022 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the consolidated entity's
operations, the results of those operations, or the consolidated entity's state of affairs in future financial years.

Likely developments and expected results of operations
The company operates leisure and entertainment businesses across the Asia Pacific region.
Our largest business is the Star Vegas Resort & Club, a successful casino and hotel complex in Poipet, Cambodia, on the border with Thailand.
Star Vegas was established in 1999, and is the largest and highest quality of the Poipet casino hotels. The property has more than 100 gaming
tables, more than 800 slot machines, and 385 hotel rooms.
Our flagship business is the Aristo International Hotel, a successful boutique casino in northern Vietnam, located on the border with Yunnan
Province, China. Established in 2002, the property is now a five star resort complex with 400 hotel rooms. Donaco is a pioneer casino operator in
Vietnam, and owns a 95% interest in the business, in a joint venture with the Government of Vietnam.
The DNA Star Vegas (DSV) casino in Cambodia recommenced operations on 18 June 2022, following a temporary closure as a result of
government-mandated restrictions since 27 April 2021. The Aristo casino in Vietnam has been operating on a limited basis since 8 May 2020.
Management is optimistic about the future outlook, following the resumption of limited operations for DSV and the reopening of the Cambodian
border with Thailand, which has traditionally been where the vast majority of DSV's customers originate from. The increase in vaccination rates
and the decline in COVID-19 infection rates in the region are also encouraging signs that international travel will gradually increase. It is also noted
that the construction of the Sapa airport in Lao Cai presents a significant opportunity for Aristo to attract a significant number of new customers.
Under the restrictions, management has continued to focus on cost control measures to ensure its monthly cash burn rate remains within their
targeted range and is implementing strategic initiatives to target significant growth once the external conditions stabilise. Management also
expects that its cash flow position will continue to improve to meet operational needs of the business.
Except as noted above, information on likely developments in the operations of the consolidated entity and the expected results of operations have
not been included in this report because the directors believe it would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the consolidated entity.
Environmental regulations
The consolidated entity is not subject to any significant environmental regulation under Australian Commonwealth or State law.

Remuneration report (audited)
The remuneration report details the key management personnel remuneration arrangements for the consolidated entity, in accordance with the
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations.
Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the entity,
directly or indirectly, including all directors.
The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:
Executive Summary
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
●
●
● Details of remuneration
● Share-based compensation
● Additional disclosures relating to key management personnel
Executive Summary
Donaco uses a simple framework for executive remuneration, consisting of three elements:
1.
2.
3.
Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation and non-monetary benefits (if any)
Short-term incentives, which are paid in cash, but only if executives satisfy applicable key performance indicators (“KPIs”)
Long-term incentives, under which executives may receive annual grants of restricted shares purchased on market, but only if applicable
KPIs are satisfied. The shares vest over a three-year period.
For short-term incentives in FY22, the following KPIs applied:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Achievement of the budgeted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) target for the Donaco Group (30%)
Achievement of the budgeted revenue target for the Star Vegas property, in Thai Baht terms (25%)
Achievement of the budgeted revenue target for the Aristo property, in Chinese Renminbi terms (25%)
Achievement of a personal KPI relating to the executive’s individual areas of responsibility (20%)
The first three KPIs above were not satisfied for FY22. One executive satisfied their personal KPI during the year.
For long-term incentives in FY22, the following KPI was required to be satisfied:
1.
Achievement of the budgeted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) target for the Donaco Group
This KPI was not satisfied, and accordingly no long-term incentives were awarded.
Shareholders should note that share price movements per se are not an applicable KPI. Share prices are affected by many factors beyond the
control of management. However all of the applicable KPIs should, if achieved, have a positive impact on Donaco’s performance, which would
normally be reflected in the share price, subject to any external factors. Accordingly, the remuneration framework focuses executives on matters
that they can control, which are expected to provide benefits to shareholders through a higher share price.
In addition, the award of restricted shares under the long term incentive plan aligns the interests of executives with shareholders. Executives
benefit directly if the share price increases, and also suffer directly if the share prices decreases.

DONACO INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
ABN 28 007 424 777
30 June 2022
Remuneration report (audited) (continued)
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
Introduction
The performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract and
retain high quality personnel, and motivate them to achieve high performance.
The objective of the consolidated entity's executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the
results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders,
and it is considered to conform to the market best practice for the delivery of reward.
Board Oversight
The Board has an established Nominations, Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Remuneration Committee”). It is primarily
responsible for setting the overall remuneration policy and guidelines for the Company, and its functions include:
●
●
●
●
reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval, the Company's general approach towards remuneration, and to oversee the
development and implementation of remuneration programs;
reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval, corporate goals and objectives relevant to the remuneration of the Managing
Director/Chief Executive Officer, and evaluating the performance of the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer in light of those goals and
objectives;
reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval, remuneration programs applicable to the Company executives, and ensuring that
these programs differ from the structure of remuneration for non-executive directors; and
reviewing the remuneration of non-executive directors, and ensuring that the structure of non-executive directors' remuneration is clearly
distinguished from that of executives by ensuring that non-executive directors are remunerated by way of fees, do not participate in schemes
designed for the remuneration of executives, do not receive options or bonus payments, and are not provided with retirement benefits other
than statutory superannuation.
All matters in respect of nomination and remuneration are currently being addressed at the Board level.
Remuneration Framework
In consultation with external remuneration consultants when necessary (refer to the section 'Use of Remuneration Consultants' below), the
Remuneration Committee has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to the reward
strategy of the consolidated entity. The framework is designed to satisfy the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:
●
●
●
●
aligned to shareholders’ interests
competitiveness and reasonableness
performance linkage/alignment of executive compensation
transparency
●
●
The remuneration framework is aligned to shareholders' interests:
has economic profit as a core component of plan design
focuses on sustained growth in shareholders wealth, consisting of growth in share price, as well as focusing the executive on key non-
financial drivers of values
attracts and retains high calibre executives
●
The remuneration framework is also aligned to program participants' interests, in that it:
●
●
●
rewards capability and experience
reflects competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholders wealth
provides a clear structure for earning rewards
All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at cost to the Company and expensed.
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structures of remuneration for non-executive directors and for executives are separate.

DONACO INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
ABN 28 007 424 777
30 June 2022
Remuneration report (audited) (continued)
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (continued)
Non-executive directors remuneration
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the directors. Non-executive
directors' fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee. The Remuneration Committee may, from time to time,
receive advice from independent remuneration consultants to ensure non-executive directors' fees and payments are appropriate and in line with
the market.
There are no bonuses payable to non-executive directors, and there are no termination payments for non-executive directors on retirement from
office, other than statutory superannuation entitlements. Non-executive directors are not granted options or shares.
ASX Listing Rules require that the aggregate of non-executive directors' remuneration be determined periodically by a general meeting. The most
recent determination was at the 2013 Annual General Meeting, where the shareholders approved a maximum aggregate remuneration of
$750,000, including statutory superannuation contributions.
Executive remuneration
The consolidated entity's remuneration policy is to ensure that executive remuneration packages properly reflect a person’s duties and
responsibilities, and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating executives of the highest calibre. As a result,
remuneration packages for the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer and senior executives include both fixed and performance-based
remuneration.
The executive remuneration and reward framework has three components:
●
●
●
fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary and non-monetary benefits, together with other statutory forms of remuneration such as
superannuation and long service leave
short-term incentives, paid in cash
long term incentives, currently consisting of restricted shares purchased on market
The combination of these components comprises the executive's total remuneration.
Fixed remuneration
Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation and non-monetary benefits (if any), is determined by considering the scope of the
executive’s responsibility, importance to the business, competitiveness in the market, and assessed potential. The total remuneration package for
executives includes superannuation and other non-cash benefits to reflect the total employment cost to the Company, inclusive of any fringe
benefits tax.
Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee, based on individual and business unit performance, the overall
performance of the consolidated entity, and comparable market remuneration.
Executives may receive their fixed remuneration in the form of cash or other fringe benefits (for example motor vehicle benefits) where it does not
create any additional costs to the consolidated entity and provides additional value to the executive.
The objective of the fixed remuneration component is to attract and retain high quality executives, and to recognise market relativities and

Short term incentives
The short term incentive (STI) framework provides senior executives with the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus, up to a maximum
amount of 50% of base salary. Clear key performance indicators (KPIs) have been established by the Remuneration Committee. Achievement of
these KPIs gives the executive an opportunity to earn a fixed percentage of their maximum STI, subject to final review and approval by the Board.

Remuneration report (audited) (continued)
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (continued)
For FY22, the KPIs applied and the applicable percentage of STI were:
1.
2.
3.
Achievement of the budgeted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) target for the Donaco Group. The
applicable EBITDA target was AUD15.4m (This KPI is worth 30% of the potential incentive).
Achievement of the budgeted revenue target for the Star Vegas property, in Thai Baht terms. The applicable revenue target was THB399.0
million (25%).
Achievement of the budgeted revenue target for the Aristo property, in Chinese Renminbi terms. The applicable revenue target was RMB17.1
million (25%).
4.
Achievement of a personal KPI relating to the executive’s individual areas of responsibility (20%).
The objective of these KPIs is clearly designed to focus on financial criteria, including top line revenue growth, while maintaining a focus on
disciplined cost control, as expressed through the EBITDA target for the Group. In addition, executives also maintained a focus on key non-
financial criteria, relating to the personal KPI applicable to the individual executive’s area of responsibility.
The first three KPIs above were not satisfied for FY22. One executive satisfied their personal KPI during the year.
Long term incentives
The long-term incentive ('LTI') program currently consists of restricted shares purchased on market. This plan was adopted in FY17 to replace the
former option plan, which was thought to be excessively complex, and could potentially result in significant dilution of shareholders.
The objective of the LTI component is to focus on sustainable shareholder value creation, as expressed through share price growth.
Under the LTI plan, the Board has actively sought to align senior executive remuneration with shareholder interests. Shares are purchased on
market and held in an employee share trust (the Trust). The shares will vest to the employees over the vesting period of three years. The aim of
the scheme is to ensure that executives are motivated to think like shareholders, with a focus on taking actions that will lead to sustainable
increases in the share price. The structure of the scheme also ensures that there is no dilution of shareholders.
The total annual dollar value of shares to be purchased is a maximum of A$1,000,000. The number of shares to be purchased each year will
depend on the share price at the time that purchases take place.
The scheme is executed in a similar manner to an on-market buy-back, allowing the Trust to stand in the market and purchase shares at
appropriate times. However, the shares will not be cancelled, but will be held in the Trust, to be distributed to employees over the vesting period
of three years.
LTI awards are made on an annual basis, subject to achievement of applicable KPIs. This ensures that at any given time, the executives have at
risk a number of LTI awards, with different vesting periods and amounts. This helps to smooth out both the risk and the cash flow for the
Company and for executives.
The LTI scheme allows for an award of a maximum of 50% of base salary in the form of restricted shares, subject to achievement of applicable
KPIs which are set annually.
During FY22 and FY21, the Trust did not purchase any shares on market. The applicable KPI was not satisfied in both years, and accordingly no
awards of shares were made.
Relationship between remuneration policy and company performance
As detailed above, Donaco’s remuneration policy is directly linked to company performance, particularly in relation to top-line revenue growth and
cost control, to ultimately create long-term shareholder value. STI and LTI awards are dependent on defined KPIs being met, which are primarily
financial in nature, and are at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee.

Remuneration report (audited) (continued)
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (continued)
Over the six-year period from FY15 to FY20, revenue and EBITDA have increased at an average annual growth rate of 21.25% and 79.94%
respectively, driven by Star Vegas becoming part of the Group at the beginning of FY16. However, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has adversely
affected revenue and EBITDA in the FY21 and FY22 years, which in turn has resulted in a decline in average growth rates over the eight-year
period to FY22.
Donaco’s share price has been declining in recent years, reflecting lower earnings brought on by the Star Vegas vendor’s breaches of the non-
compete agreement, and market concerns over the resulting legal disputes, and in FY20, FY21 and FY22 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Nominations, Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee considers that the remuneration framework has an appropriate mix of fixed
and performance based remuneration. Since performance during FY22 did not meet expectations, executives forfeited all or the majority of their
short term incentive, and also forfeited all of their long term incentive.
The Committee also considers that the remuneration framework in place will assist to increase shareholder wealth if maintained over the coming
years, subject to any adjustments that are necessary or desirable to reflect the Company's circumstances.

Criteria for performance-based remuneration
The short-term incentive ('STI') program is designed to align the targets of executives with the targets of the consolidated entity. STI payments
are granted to executives based on specific annual targets and key performance indicators ('KPIs') being achieved. The Board, advised by the
Nominations, Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee, applied these criteria in determining the award of performance-based
remuneration during the year.
For performance during FY22, the relevant criteria for the award of bonuses relate to revenue growth at each operating business, namely the Star
Vegas and the Aristo International Hotel, as well as the achievement of budgeted EBITDA targets for the consolidated entity, and a personal KPI
for each executive.
There were no share options granted or forfeited during the year (2021: nil).
There were no shares granted or forfeited during the year.
Service Agreements
Remuneration and other terms of employment for the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the other key management personnel are
formalised in contracts of employment. The service agreements specify the components of remuneration, benefits and notice periods. The
specified executives are employed under contracts with no fixed term. The company may terminate the contracts immediately if the executive is
guilty of serious misconduct or wilful neglect of duties. Otherwise, the company may terminate the contracts by giving between three to six
months’ notice or paying three to six months’ salary, as stipulated in the contracts.

●
●
all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the
auditor; 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 auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the company, acting as advocate for
the company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

DONACO INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
Notes to financial statements
30 June 2022
Note 1. Significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently
applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Going concern
At 30 June 2022, the consolidated entity recorded net current liabilities of AU$29.3 million (30 June 2021: A$20.1 million). The consolidated entity
recorded a net loss after tax of AU$16.7 million (2021: net profit after tax of AU$24.9 million), and net operating cash outflows of AU$5.7 million
(2021: AU$4.5 million) for the year ended on that date.
During the year, Donaco repaid the outstanding loan from Mega Bank, with the final instalment paid on 30 December 2021. An unsecured loan
facility agreement was signed in July 2021 with Mr Lee Bug Huy, the current Chief Executive Officer and executive director, for a loan of US$7.8
million (AU$11.3 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate). An additional loan facility agreement was entered into on 2 May 2022 for an additional
US$5 million (AU$7.3 million at the 30 June 2022 spot rate). As at 30 June 2022, US$10.4 million had been drawn down on the loan, leaving an
unutilised portion of US $2.4 million (AU$15.1 million and AU$3.5 million respectively as at 30 June 2022 spot rate). The majority of the loan
terms are materially the same as those of the Mega Bank facility, including an interest rate of 6% per annum. The original loan facility of US$7.8
million (AU$11.3 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) is due to be repaid three years from the first drawdown, while the additional loan facility of
US$5 million (AU$7.3 million at the 30 June 2022 spot rate) is due to be repaid four years from the first drawdown under the additional facility
agreement. The lender however may at any time require early repayment with a minimum of one month's prior notice. The lender has provided a
letter of financial support to Donaco which states that he will not withdraw or call upon the loan should it affect any creditor of the Company in a
detrimental way. Such financial support is provided for the foreseeable future covering a minimum period of 12 months from the date of issue of
the audited financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022.
Notwithstanding the net current liability position and lingering conditions surrounding COVID-19, management have prepared the 30 June 2022
financial report on a going concern basis. The DNA Star Vegas (DSV) casino in Cambodia recommenced operations on 18 June 2022, following a
temporary closure as a result of government-mandated restrictions since 27 April 2021. The Aristo casino in Vietnam has been operating on a
limited basis since 8 May 2020. As a result of these operating restrictions as well as minimal international travel, revenue and EBITDA have been
heavily impacted for the year ended 30 June 2022. However, management is optimistic about the future outlook, following the resumption of
limited operations for DSV and the reopening of the Cambodian border with Thailand, which has historically been where the vast majority of DSV's
customers originate from. The increase in vaccination rates and the decline in COVID-19 infection rates in the region are also encouraging signs
that international travel will gradually increase. It is also noted that the construction of the Sapa airport in Lao Cai presents a significant
opportunity for Aristo to attract a significant number of new customers. Under the restrictions, management has continued to focus on cost control
measures to ensure its monthly cash burn rate remains within their targeted range and is implementing strategic initiatives to target significant
growth once the external conditions stabilise. Management also expects that its cash flow position will continue to improve to meet operational
needs of the business.
The Board of Directors acknowledges that there is significant uncertainty over Donaco's ability to meet its working capital requirements. In the
event that Donaco is unable to raise additional capital or debt to meet working capital requirements, or operating restrictions are re-imposed on
the DSV casino, then this could have a material impact on the consolidated entity continuing as a going concern.
New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The consolidated entity has applied the following standard for the first time in the current reporting period:
AASB 2020-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2
The AASB made amendments to AASB 9 Financial Instruments, AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, AASB 7 Financial
Instruments: Disclosures, AASB 4 Insurance Contracts and AASB 16 Leases to address issues that arise during the reform of an interest rate
benchmark (IBOR), including the replacement of one benchmark with an alternative one.
The above standard did not have a significant impact on the prior and current period financial statements.

DONACO INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
Notes to financial statements
30 June 2022
Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)
New Accounting 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 2022. These standards are not expected to have a material
impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
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 ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial
statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB').
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair
value through profit or loss and derivative financial instruments.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its
judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or
complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in note 2.
Parent entity information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. Supplementary
information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 31.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Donaco International Limited ('company' or 'parent
entity') as at 30 June 2022 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Donaco International Limited and its subsidiaries together
are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'.
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated
entity 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 consolidated
entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are eliminated. Unrealised
losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries
have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the consolidated entity.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of
control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of
the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.
Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive
income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the consolidated entity. Losses incurred by the consolidated entity
are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.
Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest
in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The consolidated entity recognises the fair value of the
consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Operating segments
Operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports
provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and
assessing their performance.
Foreign currency translation
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Donaco International Limited's functional and presentation currency.
DNA Star Vegas Co Ltd, a subsidiary within the Group, has casino and hotel operations in Cambodia. Its functional currency is Thai Baht.
Donaco Singapore Pte Ltd has an interest in the Lao Cai International Hotel Joint Venture Company which operates a casino and hotel in Vietnam.
The functional currency of the Joint Venture Company is Vietnamese Dong.
The subsidiaries of Donaco that operate in the aforementioned foreign countries are consolidated into the Hong Kong group (Star Vegas Group)
and the Singapore Group (Aristo Group). At this level, the presentation currency is US Dollar.
Subsequently, these consolidated groups are consolidated with the Australian operations and converted to Australian dollars.
Foreign currency transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign
exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at financial year-end exchange rates of
monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting date. The revenues
and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the
dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through the
foreign currency reserve in equity.
Goodwill, casino licence and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the
foreign operations and translated at the closing rate.
The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised when control of the good or service is transferred to the customer, and only to the extent that it is highly probable that a
significant reversal will not occur. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
Casino revenue
Revenue at the playing tables is recognised upon the differences between chips at the closing and chips at the opening of each table plus chips
transferred from the playing table to the cage, less chips transferred from the cage to the playing table. Revenue is recognised on a net basis after
commission and profit sharing is paid to junket operators.
Revenue from slot machines represents the amount received over the exchange counter less the amount returned to customers and profit-sharing
paid.
Sale of goods
The consolidated entity sale of goods consist of food and beverages sales. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of sale, when
a group entity sells a product to the customer.
Rendering of services
Revenue from the provision of accommodation and hospitality services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are provided to
the customer.
Complimentary goods or services
For gaming transactions that include complimentary goods or services being provided to customers, the consolidated entity allocates revenue from
the gaming transaction to the good or service provided based on the standalone selling price which is the arm's length price for that good or
service available to the public.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a
financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts
estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
Government grants and incentives
Government grants and incentives are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grants and incentives will be
received and the consolidated entity will comply with all the attached conditions.

DONACO INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
Notes to financial statements
30 June 2022
Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Income tax
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for
each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the
adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered
or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for:
●
●
When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not
a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or
When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal
can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts
will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognised are
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously
unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities
and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different
taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the consolidated entity's normal
operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the
asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting
period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for
the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement
of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
Cash and cash equivalents
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.
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any
allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the
carrying amount directly. An allowance account (provision for impairment of trade receivables) is used when there is objective evidence that the
Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
The amount of impairment loss is determined using the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected
loss allowance. The expected loss rates used in measuring the expected credit losses are based on historical loss rates, adjusted to reflect current
and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the debtors to settle the receivables. These factors include
significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or
delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivables are impaired.
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. When a trade
receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent year, it is written off against the
allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the consolidated statement of
comprehensive income.
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.
Inventories
Inventories include consumable stores, food and beverages and are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a
first-in-first-out basis and comprises all costs of purchases, conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location
and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and
selling expenses.
When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is
recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realizable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the
period of the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable
value, is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, in the period in which the reversal occurs.

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that
is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment (excluding land) over their
expected useful lives as follows:
Buildings and structures
Leasehold improvements
Machinery and equipment
Motor vehicles
Office equipment and other
Furniture and fittings
Consumables
25-50 years
2-5 years
5-15 years
5-6 years
3-8 years
3-8 years
1-8 years
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated entity.
Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss.
Leases
Leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability at the date at which the lease asset is available for use by the
consolidated entity. Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net
present value of fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable.
The lease payments are discounted using the consolidated entity's incremental borrowing rates.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
- the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability; and
- any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term on a straight-line basis.
Intangible assets
Land rights
The intangible asset includes costs incurred to acquire interests in the usage of land in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam for the original hotel,
located in Lao Cai. The term of the agreement is 30 years from the initial licencing date of 19 July 2002. These land use rights are stated at cost
less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated on a straight line basis over a period of 30 years, from the licencing date. At the expiry
of the land term it is expected that the relevant State body will consider an application for extension.
Casino license
The Group consider casino licenses to be intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, on the basis that the licenses are renewable indefinitely,
subject to the Group continuing to meet all necessary requirements for renewal. Accordingly, they are not amortised and are tested annually for
impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated
impairment losses. Impairment losses on casino licenses are recognised in the profit or loss.
Goodwill
Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently
if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment
losses on goodwill are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed.
Prepaid construction costs
Amounts recognised as prepaid construction costs relate to tranche payments made to third party developers in connection with the construction
of the new Lao Cai Casino. Tranche payments are made in advance of construction work being performed in accordance with the terms of the
contractor agreements, however once associated works have been completed an amount equal to the tranche payment is transferred from prepaid
construction costs to construction in progress. Once recognised as part of construction in progress the amounts are then carried on the Statement
of Financial Position at cost, until such time as the asset is completed and ready for its intended use. Work in progress is not depreciated, but
tested for impairment annually. Once ready for its intended use an amount equal to the cost of the completed asset will be transferred to property
plant and equipment and accounted for in accordance with the consolidated entity’s accounting policy for property plant and equipment.

DONACO INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
Notes to financial statements
30 June 2022
Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Impairment of non-financial assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or
more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other non-financial assets are reviewed 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.
Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the present value of the
estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-generating unit to which the asset
belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a cash-generating unit.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are
unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually
paid within 30 days of recognition.
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.
Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the loans or borrowings are
classified as non-current.
Finance costs
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in the period in which they
are incurred including:
- interest on short term and long term borrowings.
Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be wholly settled within 12
months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Non-accumulating sick leave is
expensed to profit or loss when incurred.
Other long-term employee benefits
The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in non-
current liabilities, provided there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability. The liability is measured as the present value of
expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit
method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected
future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that
match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Defined contribution superannuation expense
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Share-based payments
Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over
shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using an amended Black-
Scholes Merton model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, an exercise price multiple, the share price at grant date
and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together
with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive
payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The
cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that
are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount
calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods.
Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest
irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied.
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is
recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as
at the date of modification.
If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a
cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any
remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited.
If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised
immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a
modification.

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Fair value measurement
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on the
price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the
most advantageous market.
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their
economic best interest. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are
appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant
observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position have been analysed and classified using a fair
value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy consist of the following levels:
a. Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1)
b.
Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly
(derived from prices) (level 2), and
c.
Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (level 3).
The directors consider that the carrying amount of all financial assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximate their fair
value.
Issued capital
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.
Where the consolidated entity purchases the company’s equity instruments, for example as the result of a share buy-back or a share-based
payment plan, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity
attributable to the owners of Donaco International Limited as treasury shares until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such ordinary
shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income
tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the owners of Donaco International Limited.
Dividends
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, determined or announced by the directors on or before the end of the financial year
but not distributed at balance date.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Donaco International Limited, 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 financial year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings 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 shares assumed to
have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax
authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the 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 tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented gross of GST and similar taxes. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are
recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent
liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various
factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting
judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of
causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are
discussed below.
Estimation of useful lives of assets
The consolidated entity determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and
equipment and finite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The
depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-
strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down.
The casino licence is stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. The licence issued by the royal government of Cambodia is renewable annually
and deemed to be with indefinite useful life, and therefore should not be amortised. Its useful life is reviewed at each reporting period to
determine whether events and circumstances continue to exist to support indefinite useful life assessment. Impairment testing by comparing its
recoverable amount with its carrying amount is performed annually. In the event that the expected future economic benefits are no longer
probable of being recovered, the licences are written down to their recoverable amount.
Goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets
The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill and other
indefinite life intangible assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1. The recoverable amounts
of cash-generating units have been determined based on the higher of value-in-use calculations and fair value less costs of disposal. These
calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of the
estimated future cash flows.
Income tax
The consolidated entity is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates, including Cambodia, Vietnam and Hong Kong.
Significant judgement is required in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the
ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The consolidated entity recognises liabilities for anticipated tax
audit issues based on the consolidated entity's current understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from
the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
Allowance for expected credit losses
The consolidated entity reviews the collectability of trade receivables on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written
off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance for expected credit losses is raised when there is objective evidence that the
consolidated entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The amount of expected credit loss
is determined using the simplified approach which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. The expected loss rates used in measuring the expected
credit losses are based on historical loss rates, adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the
ability of the debtors to settle the receivables. These factors include significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will
enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivables are
impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated
future cash flows.
Estimating incremental borrowing rate for leases
The incremental borrowing rate is used to measure lease liabilities, if the consolidated entity is unable to readily determine the interest rate
implicit in the lease. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the lessee would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and
with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. The
incremental borrowing rate therefore reflects what the lessee would have had to pay, which requires estimation when no observable rates are
available or when they need to be adjusted to reflect the terms and conditions of the lease.
Lease term
As part of the settlement agreements, an amended perpetual lease agreement was executed as of 2 March 2020 in relation to the DNA Star Vegas
lease of the land in Poi Pet, Cambodia (see note 21). Under the amended perpetual lease agreement, the lease is for a period of 50 years with an
option to extend for another 50 years. However, the extension period of 50 years has not been included in the lease liability and right-of-use asset
calculation as it remains uncertain that both Donaco and the landlord will agree to extend the lease term. Accordingly, while Donaco has security
of tenure over the Star Vegas Casino to 15 June 2115 following finalisation of the settlement agreements, the lease liability and right-of-use asset
have been calculated as at 30 June 2022 over the remaining 43 years to June 2065.
DNA Star Vegas casino licence renewal
The DNA Star Vegas casino licence issued by the royal government of Cambodia is deemed to have an indefinite useful life. The casino licence was
renewed on 19 August 2022, and will expire on 31 December 2026. Following the promulgation of the Law on the Management of Commercial
Gambling in November 2020 (the Law), the Royal Government of Cambodia issued on 26 August 2021 Sub-Decree No. 166 on the Minimum
Capital Requirement for Casino Operation. This sub-decree sets out the definition of "capital" and the minimum capital requirements for new and
existing casino operators in Cambodia, which apply to both stand-alone casinos and casinos within integrated resorts. The minimum capital
requirements that apply to DNA Star Vegas are set out in note 13.

Note 3. Operating segments
Identification of reportable operating segments
The consolidated entity is organised into three operating segments: Casino operations in Vietnam, Casino operations in Cambodia and Corporate
operations. These operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are identified
as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. There is no
aggregation of operating segments.
The consolidated entity is domiciled in Australia and operates predominantly in six countries: Australia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia
and Hong Kong. Casino operations are segmented geographically between casino operations in Vietnam and Cambodia.
The CODM reviews EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation). The accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to
the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements.
The information reported to the CODM is on a monthly basis.
Types of products and services
The principal products and services of each of these operating segments are as follows:
Casino Operations - Vietnam
Casino Operations - Cambodia
Corporate Operations
Intersegment transactions
Comprises the Aristo International Hotel operating in Vietnam. These operations include hotel
accommodation and gaming and leisure facilities.
Comprises the Star Vegas Resort and Club, operating in Cambodia. These operations include
hotel accommodation and gaming and leisure facilities.
Comprises the development and implementation of corporate strategy, commercial
negotiations, corporate finance, treasury, management accounting, corporate governance and
investor relations functions.
Intersegment transactions were made at market rates. Intersegment transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

Under the Lump Sum Tax Regime which was effective until 31 December 2020, income tax expense represents monthly gaming obligatory
payments and monthly non-gaming obligatory payments payable by the Company to the Ministry of Economy and Finance ("MoEF") of the
Kingdom of Cambodia. The monthly gaming obligatory payments and non-gaming obligatory payments are as follows:
•
•
In respect of gaming activities, DNA Star Vegas is required to pay the obligatory payment which is a fixed gaming tax. On payment of this
fixed gaming tax, DNA Star Vegas will be exempted from all categories of taxes on gaming activities including advance profits tax, minimum
tax and advance tax on distribution of dividends.
As for non-gaming obligatory payment, it comprises various other taxes such as salary tax, fringe benefit tax, withholding tax, value added
tax, patent tax, tax on rental of moveable properties, minimum tax, advance profit tax, advertising tax and specific tax on entertainment
services which are included in the statement profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

•
•
Monthly payments for the obligatory payment are due on the first week of the following month. In the event of late payment within 7 days
from the due date, there will be a penalty of 2% on the late payment and compounding interest of 2% per month. In addition, in the event of
late payment after 15 days when an official government notice is issued to DNA Star Vegas, the penalty will be increased from 2% to 25% on
the late payment plus compounding interest of 2% per month. Non-compliance with the abovementioned requirements may result in the
MoEF not issuing the casino licence in successive years.
On 30 March 2020, the MoEF had issued a directive to exempt all casino operators from making monthly obligatory payments from 1 April
2020 until the date of recommencement of their business. DNA Star Vegas had stopped making obligatory payments since April 2020 due to
its temporary closure, in accordance with the directive from the MoEF. DNA Star Vegas recommenced its operations from 25 September 2020
to 27 April 2021, limiting its operations to a minimum level (less than 35%). During this limited operation, DNA Star Vegas did not make the
monthly obligatory payments, however an accrual for the monthly obligatory payment and the 2% penalty on the late payment plus
compounding interest of 2% per month has been made as at 30 June 2022. The accruals for the obligatory payment and associated penalties
amount to US$970,931 (AU$1,409,403 as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) and US$334,351 (AU$485,344 as at 30 June 2022 spot rate)
respectively.
•
The MoEF has not issued any notice for the increase penalty at 25%. DNA Star Vegas is therefore not currently liable for this 25% penalty.
This amount has been disclosed as a contingent liability in note 37.

Real Tax Regime
(i)
In respect of gaming activities
On 14 November 2020, the Law on the Management of Commercial Gambling (“Gambling Law”) has been promulgated in the Kingdom of
Cambodia.
Pursuant to Article 81 and 82 of Gambling Law, the casino operator and/or the owner of the casino and/or the owner of the Integrated Commercial
Gambling Centre shall fulfill the payment of periodic gaming duty revenue during the licensing period. The gaming duty rate is determined as
follows:
•
•
For casinos located in the Integrated Commercial Gambling Centre, the rate is 4% for VIP guest and 7% for ordinary gaming guest on gross
gambling revenue.
For casinos that are not located in the Integrated Commercial Gambling Centre, the rate is 7% on gross gambling revenue.
Monthly payment for the gaming duty is due within the first week of the following month. In the event of a late payment within 7 days after
receiving the reminder letter for the non-payment of gaming duty, there will be a penalty of 2% on the late payment and compounding interest of
2% per month. In addition, in the event of a late payment within 15 days after receiving the first penalty letter, the penalty will be increased from
2% to 25% on the late payment plus compounding interest of 2% per month. The MoEF has the right to revoke the casino licence in the event of
non-compliance with the abovementioned requirements where the payment of gaming duty is overdue for 180 days.
DNA Star Vegas has not applied to be taxed under the Integrated Commercial Gambling Centre, therefore the applicable gaming duty rate is 7%.
During the period of its limited operations, DNA Star Vegas has not made payments of the monthly gaming duty, however an accrual of
US$302,931 (AU$439,735 as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) has been made as at 30 June 2022.
The MoEF has not issued any reminder letter and/or first penalty letter on the penalty plus interest, therefore DNA Star Vegas is not currently
liable for these penalties and interest. These amounts have been disclosed as contingent liabilities in note 37.
(ii)
In respect of non-gaming activities
Pursuant to Article 81 of the Gambling Law, the casino operator and/or the owner of the casino and/or the owner of the Integrated Commercial
Gambling Centre shall comply with the Cambodian Law on Taxation for various other taxes such as salary tax, fringe benefit tax, withholding tax,
value added tax, patent tax, tax on rental of moveable properties, minimum tax, advance profit tax, advertising tax and specific tax on
entertainment services.
(c)
The parent entity has not brought to account tax losses with a tax effect of $413,606 (2021: $723,162).

Impairment testing of goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives
Impairment of intangibles is monitored by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ('CODM') at the cash generating unit level. CODM reviews the
business performance based on geography and type of business. It has identified two reportable cash generating units, Lao Cai and DNA Star
Vegas. A business-level summary of the allocation of intangibles with indefinite useful lives is presented below:
Lao Cai International Hotel JVC

2,426,187
The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit of Lao Cai has been determined based on the value in use calculation. To calculate this, cash
flow projections are based on financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five year period. A valuation of the 100% equity
interest in Lao Cai International Hotel JVC Limited was undertaken as at 30 June 2022. Based on the valuation undertaken as at 30 June 2022, the
value in use was determined to be $55,671,029 (US$38,351,772).
The valuation as at 30 June 2022 was determined using budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations for the future, and
are considered to be reasonably achievable. The valuation is based on a 5-year cash flow forecast period. The valuation uses a growth rate of
116% in the first year, based on actual revenue in FY2022, followed by a growth rate of 150% in the second year. These growth rates are based
on the assumption that the borders with China, which has historically been where majority of Lao Cai's customers came from, will be reopened in
the second half of FY2023, and will remain open throughout FY2024. In the subsequent three years, growth rates of 23% to 62% are used
followed by a terminal year growth rate of 3%. The pre-tax discount rate used of 14.53% reflects specific risks relating to the relevant segments
and the countries in which they operate. The valuation was determined using a foreign exchange rate between Vietnamese Dong and US dollar of
23,230 VND: 1 USD. Capital expenditure of VND18.6 billion (AU$1.2 million at 30 June 2022 spot rate) in total over the forecast period was
included in the valuation.
The recoverable amount calculation for the cash-generating unit of Lao Cai is most sensitive to changes in the discount rate and forecast revenue.
An increase in excess of 1.02% in the discount rate (from 14.53% to 15.55%) would result in impairment of the cash-generating
unit of Lao Cai, as would a decrease in forecast revenue in excess of 6% on average for the years within the forecast period.
Based on the valuation, the Directors determined that no impairment loss was required to be recognised for the year ended 30 June 2022 (2021:
nil).
DNA Star Vegas - Casino Licence
The casino licence relates to the licence to operate the DNA Star Vegas casino acquired on 1 July 2015. The licence is stated at cost less any
impairment losses.
Following the promulgation of the Law on the Management of Commercial Gambling in November 2020 (the Law), the Royal Government of
Cambodia issued on 26 August 2021 Sub-Decree No. 166 on the Minimum Capital Requirement for Casino Operation. This sub-decree sets out the
definition of "capital" and the minimum capital requirements for new and existing casino operators in Cambodia, which apply to both stand-alone
casinos and casinos within integrated resorts. Prior to the enactment of the Law, there were no integrated resorts as all existing casino operations
are stand-alone operations. For these existing casino operations duly licensed to operate prior to the enactment of the Law, the minimum capital
requirement of at least KHR400 billion (approximately US$100 million, or AU$145 million as at 30 June 2022) must be satisfied over a period of
time and shall be implemented in five phases as follows:

Notes to financial statements
30 June 2022
Note 13. Non-current assets - intangibles (continued)
DNA Star Vegas - Casino Licence (continued)
•
•
•
•
•
Phase 1 (Year 1) - at least KHR50 billion (approximately US$12.5 million, or AU$18 million at 30 June 2022)
Phase 2 (Year 4) - at least KHR100 billion (approximately US$25 million, or AU$36 million at 30 June 2022)
Phase 3 (Year 7) - at least KHR200 billion (approximately US$50 million, or AU$73 million at 30 June 2022)
Phase 4 (Year 11) - at least KHR300 billion (approximately US$75 million, or AU$109 million at 30 June 2022)
Phase 5 (Year 15) - at least KHR400 billion (approximately US$100 million, or AU$145 million at 30 June 2022)
These minimum capital requirements therefore apply to DNA Star Vegas. On 18 January 2022, the share capital of DNA Star Vegas was increased
from US$5 million (AU$7 million at 30 June 2022) to US$12.5 million (AU$18 million at 30 June 2022), therefore meeting the minimum capital
requirement as at 30 June 2022 under Phase 1. The casino licence was renewed on 19 August 2022, and will expire on 31 December 2026.
This intangible asset is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value
may be impaired.
The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit of DNA Star Vegas has been determined based on its value in use. A valuation of the 100%
equity interest in DNA Star Vegas Company Limited was undertaken as at 30 June 2022. Based on the valuation undertaken as at 30 June 2022,
the value in use was determined to be $125,986,894 (US$86,791,743 converted at 30 June 2022 spot rate).
The valuation as at 30 June 2022 was determined using budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations for the future and
are considered to be reasonably achievable. The valuation is based on a 5-year cash flow forecast period. The first year of revenue in the valuation
is based on approximately 60% of pre-pandemic monthly average revenue during the period June 2019 to March 2020.
The second year of forecast revenue in the valuation reflects a growth rate of 9.1% and 3% in subsequent years. The pre-tax discount rate used of
16.52% reflects specific risks relating to the relevant segments and the countries in which they operate. The discount rate has been decreased
compared to the prior period rate used of 18.65%. The valuation was determined using a foreign exchange rate between Thai Baht and US Dollar
of 35.359 THB:1 USD. Capital expenditure of THB96 million (AU$4 million at the spot rate) in total over the forecast period was included in the
valuation.
The recoverable amount calculation for the cash-generating unit of DNA Star Vegas is most sensitive to changes in the discount rate and forecast
revenue. An increase in excess of 0.98% (from 16.52% to 17.50%) would result in impairment of the cash-generating unit of DNA Star Vegas, as
would a decrease in forecast revenue in excess of 3.41% for the first two years within the forecast period.
The resumption of limited casino operations as of 18 June 2022 is a positive indicator for future earnings and growth potential, particularly with the
easing of travel restrictions and the reopening of the border between Cambodia and Thailand which will encourage more international travel. Based
on the valuation, the Directors determined that no impairment loss was required to be recognised for the year ended 30 June 2022 (2021:
$8,376,114).
Land right
Intangible asset of $23,824 (2021: $24,184) relates to a 30-year land use right in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Land use right is stated at
cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. The amortisation period is 30 years. This intangible asset is tested for impairment
annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

Note 21. Leases
As part of the settlement agreements on resolution of the dispute between Lee Hoe Property Co., Ltd, the landlord of DNA Star Vegas and the
company, an amended perpetual lease agreement was executed as of 2 March 2020 in relation to the DNA Star Vegas lease, which grants Donaco
security of tenure over the Star Vegas casino until 15 June 2115. The lease is in relation to land of approximately 232,189 square meters located
in Poi Pet, Cambodia. This follows an additional
lease payment of US$20 million (AU$29.0 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) to Lee Hoe
Property Co., Ltd. The monthly lease payment is US$20,000 (AU$29,032 as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) for the first 5 years from the effective
settlement date, US$30,000 (AU$43,548 as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) per month starting from the 6th year to the end of the 10th year, and from
the 11th year onwards, the monthly rent will increase 3% every 3 years. In addition, for the five financial years commencing 1 July 2020, there is
an entitlement to share 25% of the Star Vegas business EBITDA in excess of US$16 million (AU$23.2 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) of the
EBITDA of the relevant financial year.
Under the amended perpetual lease agreement, the lease is for a period of 50 years with an option to extend for another 50 years. However, the
extension period of 50 years has not been included in the lease liability and right-of-use asset calculation as it remains uncertain that both parties
(Donaco and Lee Hoe Property Co., Ltd) will agree to extend the lease term. Accordingly, while Donaco has security of tenure over the Star Vegas
Casino to 15 June 2115 following finalisation of the settlement agreements, the lease liability and right-of-use asset have been calculated as at 30
June 2022 over the remaining 43 years to June 2065.
Lao Cai International Hotel Joint Venture Company Limited has a non-cancellable operating lease commitment over a 50-year term in respect of its
casino premises in Lao Cai, Vietnam. The lease commenced 8 April 2011 and the remaining lease term as at 30 June 2022 is approximately 39
years.
During the year, a lease agreement was also entered into for new office premises in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The lease term commenced on 1
January 2022 and is for a period of 2 years.

The lease liability has been measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments over the term of the lease. For the lease in relation to
the land in Cambodia, the lease payments were discounted using an incremental borrowing rate of 6.53%. The lease payments for Vietnam were
discounted using a discount rate of 9.5%, while the discount rate used for the Kuala Lumpur office premises was 3.25%.

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on the winding up of the company in proportion to the number of
and amounts paid on the shares held. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value and the company does not have a limited amount of
authorised capital.
On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each share shall have one vote.
Entitlement offer during the year ended 30 June 2021
On 3 July 2020 the company issued a pro-rata, non-renounceable fully underwritten entitlement offer of 1 new share in the company for every 2
shares held by eligible shareholders at a price of $0.035 for 411,796,609 new shares, to raise approximately AUD14.4 million (before costs). The
offer was subsequently completed on 27 July 2020, with a total of 113,692,949 of new shares applied for by shareholders and the remaining
298,103,660 new shares acquired by Mr Lee Bug Tong and Mr Lee Bug Huy. Post completion of the entitlement offer and associated underwriting,
Mr Lee Bug Huy and Mr Lee Bug Tong hold a relevant interest in the Company of 42.12%, an increase from their previous interest of 17.99%.
The funds raised were used to make principal repayments to Mega Bank and also to meet the working capital needs of the casino operations and
other corporate, administration and transaction costs.
Capital risk management
The consolidated entity's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can provide
returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the consolidated entity may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital
to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as value adding relative to
the current parent entity's share price at the time of the investment.
The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 2021 financial statements.
Treasury shares are shares in Donaco International Limited that are held by Smartequity EIS Pty Ltd for the purpose of issuing shares under the
employee share scheme. Shares issued to employees are recognised on a first-in-first-out basis.

Note 26. Financial instruments
Financial risk management objectives
The consolidated entity's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk and interest rate risk), credit
risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to
minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity uses different methods to
measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and
other price risks and ageing analysis for credit risk.
Risk management is carried out by senior finance executives ('finance') under policies approved by the Board of Directors ('the Board'). These
policies include identification and analysis of the risk exposure of the consolidated entity and appropriate procedures, controls and risk limits.
Finance identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks within the consolidated entity's operating units. Finance reports to the Board on a monthly
basis.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rate and foreign exchange rate will affect the consolidated entity's income.
Foreign currency risk
The consolidated entity is exposed to foreign exchange fluctuations in relation to cash generated for working capital purposes, denominated in
foreign currencies and net investments in foreign operations, in which the functional currencies are Vietnamese Dong and Thai Baht.
Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised financial assets and financial liabilities denominated in a currency
that is not the entity's functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting. An assessment of the
sensitivity of the consolidated entity’s exposure to interest rate movements was performed, and was found to be immaterial for the purposes of
this disclosure.
Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters and material movements are not expected. The consolidated entity does
not enter into any forward exchange contracts to buy or sell specified foreign currencies.
The average exchange rates and reporting date exchange rates applied were as follows:

Notes to financial statements

Note 26. Financial instruments (continued)
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the consolidated entity. The
consolidated entity has a strict code of credit, including obtaining agency credit information, confirming references and setting appropriate credit
limits. The consolidated entity obtains guarantees where appropriate to mitigate credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting
date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of
financial position and notes to the financial statements. The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral.
Liquidity risk
Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents) and
available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
The consolidated entity maintains cash to meet all its liquidity requirements and manages its liquidity by carefully monitoring cash outflows due in
a day-to-day and week-to-week basis. Furthermore, the consolidated entity’s long term liquidity needs are identified in its annual Board approved
budget, and updated on a quarterly basis through revised forecasts.
Remaining contractual maturities
The following tables detail the consolidated entity's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based

Note 33. Events after the reporting period
DSV casino licence renewal
On 19 August 2022, DNA Star Vegas was presented with its casino licence which will expire on 31 December 2026.
Additional funding
Drawdowns of US$0.7 million, US$0.3 million and US$1.2 million (AU$1.1 million, AU$0.4 million and AU$1.7 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate)
were made in July, August and September 2022 respectively under the additional loan facility entered into on 2 May 2022. However in August
2022, an amount of US$0.3 million (AU$0.4 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate) was repaid to the lender, as the DSV casino has generated
sufficient funds following the resumption of limited operations on 18 June 2022. The unutilised portion of the additional loan facility is therefore
US$0.5 million (AU$0.7 million as at 30 June 2022 spot rate). A further US$0.2m (AU$0.3m as at 30 June 2022) is expected to be repaid in late
September 2022.
COVID-19 pandemic
Subsequent to year end, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve with the easing of travel restrictions by the Thai and
Cambodian governments, as a result of high vaccination rates and declining COVID-19 infection rates in the region. Management continues to
place a heavy emphasis on continued cost control measures and mitigation activities in order to reduce operating expenses and to preserve cash
balances. The consolidated entity will continue to monitor the potential implications of the ongoing pandemic and the impact on operations.
There are no other events subsequent to the reporting period that may have a material impact on the financial statements.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of
Donaco International Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Donaco International Limited (the Company) and its
subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30
June 2022, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the
consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year
then ended, and notes to the 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 2022 and of its financial
performance for the year then ended;
(b) and 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 (including Independence Standards) (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.

Independent Auditor’s Report
Donaco International Ltd
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report, which indicates that the Group’s current liabilities
exceeded its current assets by $29,324,262 as at 30 June 2022. The consolidated entity recorded net
operating cash outflows of $5,710,952 and net loss after income tax of $16,666,372 for the year then
ended. As stated in Note 1, the directors have prepared the 30 June 2022 financial report on a going
concern basis and have been taking actions to address these financial positions. Should the events or
actions set forth in Note 1 not eventuate, it may result in a material uncertainty that may cast
significant doubt on the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether it will
be able to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the ordinary course of business at the
amounts stated. 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 financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide
a separate opinion on these matters.
Key Audit Matter
How we addressed the Key Audit Matter
Impairment assessment of intangible assets (Note 13)
The carrying value of the Group’s casino
license asset was $17,644,117 as at 30 June
2022. The licence is classified as an intangible
asset with an indefinite useful life and is
subject to annual impairment assessment.
The impairment assessment of the intangible
asset is a key audit matter because of the
complexity and subjectivity involved, including
key assumptions made.
Our audit procedures included, amongst others, the
following:
• Assessed management’s determination of the cash
generating unit (“CGU”) and the CGU’s carrying value.
• Assessed reasonableness of cash flow forecasts by
comparing the base year in the forecast calculation to
the current period’s actual results.
• Assessed the appropriateness of the currency used in
the model.
• Assessed reasonableness of the key assumptions
used, being revenue growth rate, discount rate, and
terminal growth rate.
• Checked that the income tax rate agreed to the
prevailing rate.
• Tested the mathematical accuracy and components of
the model that supports the impairment assessment.
• Checked the sensitivity of the impairment assessment
by focusing on the discount and growth rates.
• Evaluated the adequacy of the judgments and sources
of estimation uncertainty disclosures in the
consolidated financial report.

Key Audit Matter
How we addressed the Key Audit Matter
Renewal of Casino Licence (Note 2,13)
The casino licence at DNA Star Vegas was
subject to renewal on an annual basis. The
licence expired on 31 December 2021 and was
in the process of being renewed at reporting
date.
The renewal requirements have been varied
under the Law on the Management of
Commercial Gambling that was issued in
November 2020. Under this Law, the new
requirements include a minimum capital
requirement, payment of deposit equivalent to
5% of the DNA Star Vegas’s share capital
amount, and obtaining a Patent Tax Certificate.
The renewal of casino licence is considered a
key audit matter due to the significant changes
in the current year’s requirements and the
requirement to have a valid licence to continue
operating the casino at DNA Star Vegas.
Our audit procedures included, amongst others, the
following:
• Vouched the full renewal fee payment to the Commercial
Gambling Management Commission (“CGMC”) of
Cambodia.
• Vouched the payment of deposit to an equivalent of 5%
of DNA Star Vegas’ share capital account to the CGMC.
• Verified the resolution of Donaco Hong Kong, the
immediate holding company, to increase the share
capital of DNA Star Vegas to meet the required share
capital of US$12.5 million (equivalent to AU$18 million at
30 June 2022)
• Verified the authorisation from the Ministry of Commerce
for DNA Star Vegas to increase its share capital to
US$12.5 million.
• Vouched the renewed license certificate which was
presented to DNA Star Vegas on 19 August 2022.
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Group’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2022 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 accordingly 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.
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 ability of the Group 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.

Independent Auditor’s Report
Donaco International Ltd
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.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional
judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
•
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a
material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may
involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events
or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.
If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s
report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to
modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of
our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to
continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in
a manner that achieves fair presentation.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the group financial report. The
auditor is responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. The
auditor remains solely responsible for the audit opinion.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of
the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we
identify during the audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions
taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit
matters. We describe these matters in the auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter
should not be communicated in the auditor’s report because the adverse consequences of doing so
would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
