Chairman and CEO Letter
Dear Shareholders,
We are pleased to present the review of operations and Annual Report for Harris Technology Group
Limited for the financial year ended 30 June 2021.
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.

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.
Sincerely,
Alan Sparks

group.
Non-audit services
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the
financial year by the auditor are outlined in note 30 to the financial statements.
The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the
auditor (or by another person or firm on the auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general
standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001.
The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 30 to the financial statements
do not compromise the external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act
2001 for the following reasons:
●
●
all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact
the integrity and 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.
Rounding of amounts
The company is of a kind referred to in Corporations Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian
Securities and Investments Commission, relating to 'rounding-off'. Amounts in this report have been
rounded off in accordance with that Corporations Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in
certain cases, the nearest dollar.
Auditor’s independence declaration
A copy of the auditor's independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations
Act 2001 is set out immediately after this directors' report.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2021)
1.
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.

(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

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

(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.

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.

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.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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.

(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.

Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified and repositioned for consistency

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.

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.

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.

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.

Maturity analysis of financial assets and liabilities based on management’s expectation
Management’s expectation reflects a balanced view of cash inflows and outflows. 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.

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.

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.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity
holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the
year.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to ordinary
equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during
the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the
conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
The following reflects the income and share data used in the calculations of basic and diluted
earnings per share:

As at 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020 the issue of potential ordinary shares was assessed to be
non-dilutive and consequently diluted earnings per share is equal to basic earnings per share.

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.

1. 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

disclosures in respect of Inventory.
Our Audit procedures included:

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.
