Review and Results of Operations Pivoting the business The Group has over the past two to three years undergone a dramatic change in pivoting from being a mixed business of B2B distribution and B2C retail of IT Technology products to a pure-play online retailer. All business of the group is conducted online via our own eCommerce site www.ht.com.au and via the major online marketplace platforms including Amazon, eBay, Kogan and Catch. 2021 saw the successful conclusion of the implementation of this bold strategy with confirmation from the results of its validity, highlighted by 49% year-on-year increase in normalised operating profit. Exceptional growth Harris Technology has over the past 20 months held the No 1 seller position on Amazon Australia marketplace and having obtained 100% 5-star review rating in recent months. This is something our team members should be very proud of given the volume of reviews exceeded 6,000, which is an extremely difficult feat to achieve. Exceptional sales records were broken during Amazon sales events on Black Friday and Prime Day. In June 2021, the company also set a record monthly eBay sales above $1M. Over the 2021 FY, the company’s monthly sales have consistently broken records. A strategy of diversifying the categories offered on our eCommerce channels begun in the second half of the fiscal year with pleasing results achieved in the Gaming category and further category expansion planned during the 2022 financial year. Resulting sales revenue in 2021 was $41.8M representing a 206% year-on-year increase. Strengthening the balance sheet Harris Technology successfully completed two capital raises during the year effectively increasing share capital by $9.8M after costs. This has, together with the reported profits for the year, improved the total equity position to $7.7M and has positioned the company on a far stronger equity base as a foundation for growth. Investment in inventory levels have grown 224% at end of June 2021, in line with sales growth. The company runs tight processes relating to inventory control. Management believes that the increased level of inventory is in line with the company’s sales growth and will yield further revenue increases. The company has recognised a deferred tax asset amounting to $783K relating to prior years losses incurred. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 3 Chairman and CEO Letter Improving profit and cash generation Total NPAT reported for the year improved by 74% to $1.75M from 1M in 2020. In 2020 Harris Technology took quick advantage of the demand for PPE products driven by the pandemic assisting its profitability strongly in that year. As the table below shows the company has again managed to improve its operational profitability by 49% on a normalised basis when removing one-off windfalls and costs. FY21 ($m) FY20 ($m) Change (%) Normalised profit before tax comparison Profit before tax reported 1.13 1.01 Non-operating adjustments Debt forgiveness Loss on disposal of non-current asset Impairment of intangible asset - - - (0.61) 0.06 0.30 Normalised profit before tax 1.13 0.76 49% Conclusion We believe the company is uniquely and positively positioned to take advantage of the strong and growing trend towards online shopping. Our online stores on all major marketplaces continually benefit from growth of these large platforms and the massive marketing programs launched by these platform owners. Our relaunch of the company’s own shopping site (ht.com.au) is imminent and will provide our loyal customers and new customers alike a vastly improved online shopping experience of our ever- increasing product range. The new website will also enable the company to start offering cloud computing software products.

CORPORATE INFORMATION The consolidated financial report of Harris Technology Group Limited (the Company or Harris Technology Group) and controlled entities (the Group) for the year ended 30 June 2021 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 26 August 2021. Harris Technology Group is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) 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. New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted The group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standard Board (“AASB”) that are mandatory for the current reporting period. There were no standards adopted in the current period that had a material impact on the group Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. 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 Group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2021. The Group's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the Group , are set out below. AASB 2020-61: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022) This Standard defers the mandatory effective date of amendments to AASB 101 that were originally made in AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current to be applied for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023 instead of 1 January 2022. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 30 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) This Standard amends AASB 101 Presentation to Financial Statements to clarify the following: The classification as a non-current liability should be based on the existence of a ‘right’ (as opposed to a ‘discretion’ as it was provided before this amendment) to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period; The term ‘settlement’ includes issue of equity instruments in exchange of extinguishment of a financial liability and such a settlement does not impact the classification of the liability as current or non-current; and Classification of a liability is unaffected by the likelihood that the entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. The application of these amendments when effective is retrospective by restatement of prior periods. Earlier application is permitted. The Group has current and non-current liabilities that are classified based on the requirements of AASB101. Adoption of this amendment is not expected to change the Group’s classification of its liabilities as current or non-current, however, it gives greater clarity to directors in making the assessment regarding what the appropriate classification is. Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework) The revised Conceptual Framework is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and recognition criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards. Where the group has relied on the existing framework in determining its accounting policies for transactions, events or conditions that are not otherwise dealt with under the Australian Accounting Standards, the group may need to review such policies under the revised framework. At this time, the application of the Conceptual Framework is not expected to have a material impact on the group 's financial statements. (b) Statement of compliance The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 31 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (c) Going concern The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business. As disclosed in the financial statements, the group made a profit of $1,753,416 (2020: $1,009,522) but had net cash outflows from operating activities of $4,027,757 (2020: $762,061) for the year ended 30 June 2021. The Group also has material borrowings expiring within 12 months of the date of signing the financial statements. The Directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the group will be able to continue as a going concern, after consideration of the following factors: (cid:120) (cid:120) The group has prepared budgets and cash flow forecasts for the next 12 months from the date of this report which indicate the Group will have a positive cash balance during this year; The Group raised funds of $9.6m through a private placement of $8.2m and a capital raise from a share purchase plan of $1.4m to support its business plan; (cid:120) A significant portion of the Group’s borrowings ($1.8m) are due to related parties and have been extended post year end on 23 August 2021 to 31 December 2022 Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 32 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (d) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2021. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has: (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee); Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation. A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it: (cid:120) De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary; (cid:120) De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests; (cid:120) De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity; (cid:120) Recognises the fair value of the consideration received; (cid:120) Recognises the fair value of any investment retained; (cid:120) Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss; and (cid:120) Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 33 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (e) Revenue recognition The Group recognises revenue as follows: Revenue from contracts with customers Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the Group: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised. Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer such as discounts, rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other contingent events. Such estimates are determined using either the 'expected value' or 'most likely amount' method. The measurement of variable consideration is subject to a constraining principle whereby revenue will only be recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The measurement constraint continues until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Amounts received that are subject to the constraining principle are recognised as a refund liability. Sale of goods Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the goods. Dependent on the terms of the specific contract the transfer of control occurs either upon despatch or upon delivery. Rendering of services Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised over time as the services are rendered based on either a fixed price or an hourly rate. 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. Other revenue Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 34 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. (f) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) Discontinued operations A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately on the face of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. (g) Income tax and other taxes Current income tax expense is the tax payable on the current year’s taxable income. This is based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for temporary differences and unused tax losses only when it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. Tax consolidation Harris Technology Group Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. The head entity, Harris Technology Group Limited and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The Group has applied the Group allocation approach in determining the appropriate amount of current taxes and deferred taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Harris Technology Group Limited also recognizes the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 35 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (g) Income tax and other taxes (Cont.) Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group. Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly-owned tax consolidated entities. Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except: (cid:120) When the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable. (cid:120) Receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included. (cid:120) The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. (cid:120) Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as part of operating cash flows. (h) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at banks, short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less held at call with financial institutions and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. Cash and cash equivalents also include amounts collected in respect of online sales during the year by agents on behalf of the Company where clear title of ownership exists. (i) 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. The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue. Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 36 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (j) Business combinations The Group accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred measured at acquisition date fair value. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and included in administrative expenses. The Group recognises identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination regardless of whether they have been previously recognised in the acquiree’s financial statements prior to the acquisition. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are generally measured at their acquisition- date fair values. (k) Intangibles assets other than goodwill Intangible assets acquired separately are initially measured at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is at its fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related expenditure is reflected profit or loss in the year which the expenditure is incurred. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over their useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life is reviewed at least at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, which is a change in accounting estimate. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in profit or loss in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset. The estimated useful life of each class of intangible asset is as follows: Software Development 2 years Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 37 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (k) Intangibles assets other than goodwill (Cont.) Impairment of other intangible assets 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 intangible 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. (l) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and / or any accumulated impairment losses, if any. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment annually by the Directors for events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying value exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount. Depreciation The depreciable amounts of fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: Motor vehicles 5 - 6 years In the case of leasehold property, expected useful lives are determined by reference to comparable owned assets or over the term of the lease, if shorter. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 38 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (m) Impairment of property, plant, equipment, goodwill and intangible assets The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use, to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of comprehensive income, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. (n) Right-of-use-assets A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the Group expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any re measurement of lease liabilities. The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred. (o) Inventories Inventories, consisting of products available for sale, are primarily accounted for using the latest purchase price method, and are valued at the lower of cost or net realisable value. This valuation requires the Group to make judgements, based on currently available information, about the likely method of disposition and expected recoverable values of each disposition category. Volume rebates in relation to purchases are recognised in cost of sales when the corresponding inventories are sold. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost necessary to make the sale. All inventories carried are finished goods, ready for sale.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (p) Financial instruments Classification The Group classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: loans and receivables and financial liabilities. The classification of investments depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition. Financial liabilities The Group’s financial liabilities include trade payables, other payables and loans from third parties including inter-company balances and loans from or other amounts due to director-related entities. The Group’s financial liabilities are recognised at fair value and carried at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation. (q) Trade and other payables These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group 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- 60 days of recognition. (r) Lease liabilities A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 40 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (s) Provisions Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required at settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. (t) Foreign Currencies Functional and presentation currency The financial statements of each Group entity are measured using its functional currency, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, as this is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency. Transactions and balances Transactions in foreign currencies of entities within the Group are translated into functional currency at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items that are outstanding at the reporting date (other than monetary items arising under foreign currency contracts where the exchange rate for that monetary item is fixed in the contract) are translated using the spot rate at the end of the financial year. Resulting exchange differences arising on settlement or re-statement are recognised as revenues and expenses for the financial year. Group companies The financial statements of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation currency are translated as follows: (cid:120) Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; (cid:120) Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year; and (cid:120) All resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity. Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the Group’s foreign currency translation reserve as a separate component of equity in the reserve account. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 41 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (u) Employee benefits Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, and annual leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Expenses for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable. All other short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables. The liability for long service leave is recognised and 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 expect 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 government bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. (v) Contract liabilities Contract liabilities represent the Group 's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer and are recognised when a customer pays consideration, or when the Group recognises a receivable to reflect its unconditional right to consideration (whichever is earlier) before the Group has transferred control the goods or services to the customer. (w) Comparatives Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year disclosures. (x) Share based payments Equity settled transactions The Group provides benefits to the directors, senior executives and some third parties in the form of share options/performance rights under Harris Technology Group’s Long Term Incentive Plan. These are equity settled transactions under Australian Accounting Standards. The cost of these equity-settled transactions with directors and senior executives is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model and for third parties with reference to the fair value of the goods/services provided. The cost is recognised together with a corresponding increase in other capital reserve in equity over the period in which the performance and / or service conditions are fulfilled. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 42 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) (x) Share based payments (Cont.) The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Equity settled transactions In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any non-market vesting conditions. The charge to the statement of comprehensive income for the year is the cumulative amount as calculated less the amounts already charged in previous periods. There is a corresponding entry to equity. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for equity-settled transactions for which vesting are conditional upon a market or non-vesting condition. These are treated as vesting irrespective of whether or not the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and / or service conditions are satisfied. (y) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash, receivables and other receivables, payables and other payables. The Group manages its exposure to key financial risks, including interest rate risk in accordance with the Group’s financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support the delivery of the Group’s financial targets whilst protecting future financial security. The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate risk and assessments of market forecasts for interest rates. Derivative financial instruments are used by the Group to hedge exposure to exchange rate risk associated with foreign currency transactions. Ageing analyses and monitoring of specific credit allowances are undertaken to manage credit risk. Liquidity risk is monitored through the development of future rolling cash flow forecasts. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks as summarised below. Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of the risks identified below, including the setting of limits for interest rate risk, hedging limits, credit allowances and future cash flow forecast projections. Risk exposures and responses Interest rate risk The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s debt obligations with the floating interest rate. At reporting date, the Group had the following financial instruments exposed to Australian variable interest rate risk. 2021 $ 2020 $ Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents (interest bearing) 3,262,107 1,171,184 Financial liabilities Interest bearing liabilities – fixed rate (current) (2,266,380) (867,727) Interest bearing liabilities – fixed rate (non-current) - (4,764,212) Net exposure 995,727 (4,460,755) Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 44 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONT.) The Group constantly analyses its interest rate exposure. Within this analysis consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions, alternative financing and the mix of fixed and variable interest rates. The Group has no material interest rate risk exposure. Credit risk Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. Exposure at balance date is addressed in each applicable note. It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are assessed as to creditworthiness, including an assessment of their independent credit rating, financial position, past experience and industry reputation. Risk limits are set for individual customers. 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 Group has adopted a lifetime expected loss allowance in estimating expected credit losses to trade receivables through the use of a provisions matrix using fixed rates of credit loss provisioning. These provisions are considered representative across all customers of the Group based on recent sales experience, historical collection rates and forward-looking information that is available. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 45 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONT.) Foreign currency risk The groups exposure to currency risk is minimal at this stage of its operations. Liquidity risk The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of private equity facility and equity raisings. As at 30 June 2021, 100% of the Group’s financial liabilities will mature in less than one year (2020: 45%). The table below reflects all contractually fixed payables and receivables for settlement, repayments and interest resulting from recognised financial assets and liabilities. The respective undiscounted cash flows for the respective upcoming fiscal periods are presented. Cash flows for financial assets and liabilities without fixed amount or timing are based on the conditions existing at 30 June 2021. The remaining contractual maturities of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities are: < 1 year 1-2 years 2-5 years > 5 years Total Year ended 30 June 2021 ($) Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Total Financial liabilities 3,262,107 3,129,379 6,391,486 Trade and other payables 7,734,915 Third party loans 459,955 Lease liabilities 83,801 96,790 Related party loans 1,806,425 - Total (10,085,096) (96,790) Net maturity (3,693,610) (96,790) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3,262,107 3,129,379 6,391,486 7,734,915 459,955 180,591 1,806,425 (10,181,886) (3,790,400) Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 46 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 3.

The Group’s assets mainly consist of cash and trade receivables with the liabilities consisting of trade payables from the ongoing operations of the business. To monitor existing financial assets and liabilities as well as to enable an effective controlling of funding for the business, the Group has established risk that reflects expectations of management in terms of expected settlement of financial assets and liabilities. All financial assets and most liabilities are payable within 12 months of reporting date. Accordingly, the book value of each liability is equivalent to its fair value. The liabilities due after 12 months are loans with fixed interest rate. The carrying values of these loans are equivalent to their fair value. 4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future years. Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 47 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021) 4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Cont.) Judgements In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements: Revenue recognition The Directors have utilised judgement in determining the point of transfer of control to customers under each revenue contact. Judgment is required as there are multiple criteria to be assessed when determining the point of transfer of control of goods to customers. Deferred tax assets The Directors have utilised judgement in determining whether sufficient future taxable profits are probable against which to offset unutilised tax losses and temporary differences. Estimates and assumptions The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Group based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Group. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur. Provision for obsolescence of inventories The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of the provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that affect inventory obsolescence. Expected credit losses The allowance for expected credit losses assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. It is based on the lifetime expected credit loss, grouped based on days overdue,. Assumptions include recent sales experience, historical collection rates, the impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and forward-looking information that is available. The allowance for expected credit losses is disclosed in note 12. Volume rebates Volume rebates in relation to purchases are recognised in cost of sales when the corresponding inventory is sold. Estimation is required with respect to which inventory items volume rebates are allocated to in determining the cost of sales.

On behalf of the Board Alan Sparks Non-Executive Chairman Melbourne 26 August 2021 Harris Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2020/21 | 65 Take the lead INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HARRIS TECHNOLOGY GROUP LIMITED Report on the Audit of the Financial Report Opinion We have audited the financial report of Harris Technology Group Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group) which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, 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 Harris Technology Group Limited 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 2021 and of its financial performance for the year then ended, and b. complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional & 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. 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.

KAM Topic Valuation of Inventory Refer also to Note 2 (Accounting Policy), Note 13 (Financial Disclosures) The Group inventory of $10,766,788 is significant to the financial statements and has increased by $7,443,803 from the prior year. Inventory is required to be carried at the lower of its cost and net realisable value and cost is determined on a first in first out basis. The valuation of inventory involves judgement by management depending on the age and type of inventory. Because of the nature of the inventory, being technological goods, the high level of judgement involved in determining its net realisable value, and the significant carrying amounts involved, we have determined that this is a key judgement area that our audit has focussed upon. 2. KAM Topic Revenue Recognition Refer also to Note 2 (Accounting Policy), Note 7 (Financial Disclosures) Revenue recognition involves judgement by management on determining when control passes to the customer as well as identifying and quantifying any potential variable consideration. Because of the complexities involved in applying AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and the estimation involved in quantifying variable consideration values that have not yet been applied, we have determined that this is a key judgement area that our audit has focussed upon. Take the lead Our Audit procedures included: (cid:120) Obtaining an understanding and assessing key controls over the valuation of inventory (cid:120) Comparing cost and sales prices to ensure inventory was valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value (cid:120) Evaluating the aging of inventory and ensuring costs assigned to inventory were reasonable (cid:120) Obtaining an understanding of the methods, assumptions and data used by management in determining the need for an inventory provision (cid:120) Assessing whether the methods, assumptions and data were appropriate We assessed the adequacy of the Group disclosures in respect of Inventory. Our Audit procedures included: (cid:120) Obtaining an understanding of the various revenue streams (cid:120) Evaluating whether the Group’s accounting policy is inline with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (cid:120) Obtaining an understanding and assessing key controls over revenue recognition (cid:120) Obtaining an understanding of the methods, assumptions and data used by management in revenue recognition (cid:120) Assessing whether the methods, assumptions and data were appropriate (cid:120) Evaluating the point of transfer of control to customers (cid:120) Evaluating calculation of variable consideration components We assessed the adequacy of the Group disclosures in respect of revenue recognition. Take the lead Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, 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 has no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with 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: (cid:120) 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. (cid:120) 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. (cid:120) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. (cid:120) 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 Take the lead 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. (cid:120) 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. (cid:120) Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our 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 our 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 our 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 our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on the Remuneration Report Opinion on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 17 to 22 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2021. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Harris Technology Group Limited for the year ended 30 June 2021 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Responsibilities The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
