Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 2
Chairman and CEO Letter
Dear Shareholders,
We hereby present the review of operations and Annual Report for Harris Technology Group Limited
for the financial year ended 30 June 2023.
We are disappointed with the result which has been exacerbated by losses incurred in reducing
inventory levels in the light of the continued slowing demand and the uncertain economic climate,
which has particularly affected the IT segment.
Review and Results of Operations
Sales decline
The Company experienced a 52% decrease in year on year sales to $24.2M. (2022: $50.3M). All our
key marketplaces experienced similar reduction trends. The Company is expanding its presence on
new and emerging platforms as well as enhancing its own website with the launch of HT
Home.com.au and expanding our M2C category internationally using Amazon’s infrastructure.
Amazon remains a key channel for Harris Technology. Our position and rating continue to be
excellent, thus helping us to maintain a preferred status in claiming the “buy-box”. Whilst good sales
results were experienced during Prime Day and other online events, the Company focused more on
maintaining sales margins than increasing top-line as well as exiting underperforming products and
brands.
Challenging trading conditions
As the situation resulting from the pandemic stabilised and the economy entered a period of
uncertainty contributed to by inflationary trends, we experienced a slowdown in demand and traffic
across most channels as can be seen in the revenue trend chart, particularly from January onwards
when margins narrowed as a result of increased competitive discounting. This trend has affected the
general eCommerce sector worldwide.
Strengthening the balance sheet
The team have been focused on improving margins and managing inventory levels, which have been
under pressure as a result of the prevailing trading conditions. This will remain a focus going forward
with the Company having executed a management review of all brands sold and reduced ongoing
exposure to underperforming products.
The trading loss for the year is disappointing given the Company’s trajectory, however we believe the
challenges experienced have been contained by the progress made in moving to higher margin
categories, the product review and reduction in inventory levels, with a turnaround in sight.
Inventory and working capital levels have been reduced year-on-year and we are confident that the
Company is able to meet its expected working capital requirements in the next financial year.
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 3
Conclusion
We believe the Company remains strongly positioned to capitalise on the widespread adoption
towards online shopping with our move into higher margin categories and with improvement in the
economic sentiment, the Company will again return to strong financial performance.
Sincerely,
Alan Sparks (Chairman)
Garrison Huang
(CEO)

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 2023 was authorised for issue in
accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 26th September 2023.
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
Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the
Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting
Standards Board (AASB), and the Company’s Constitution. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting
purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of
the financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in
financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions.
The financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the
International Standards Board.
The financial statements, except for the cash flow information, have been prepared on an accruals basis and
are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-
current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
The functional currency of the Group is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in
which the entity operates. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the entity’s
functional and presentation currency and is rounded to the nearest dollar.
Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current
year disclosures.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2023)

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Accounting policies
(a)
Going concern
As disclosed in the consolidated financial statements, the Group made a loss of $3,303,671 (2022: loss of
$1,464,735) and had net cash inflow from operating activities of $ 485,516 (2022: net cash out flows of
$1,387,263) for the year ended 30 June 2023. These conditions indicate a significant or material uncertainty
about the consolidated Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.
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:
•
The CEO, Mr Garrion Huang has committed a total facility of $4 million, of which 2.25 million has
been utilised as at year end. The facility is valid for 12 months from the signing of the financial
statements;
• 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 is managing its cash flow and negotiating with creditors as needed;
• Active management of the current level of discretionary expenditure; and
• Raising additional working capital through the issue of debt or equity securities and/or other funding.
This financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be incurred should the
consolidated entity not continue as a going concern.
(b)
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and its subsidiaries as at
30 June 2023. 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:
• 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 consolidated
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive Income from the date the Group gains control until the
date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 30
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2023)
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(b)
Basis of consolidation (continued)
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:
• De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary;
• De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests;
• De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity;
• Recognises the fair value of the consideration received;
• Recognises the fair value of any investment retained;
• Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss; and
• 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.
(c)
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.
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 31
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2023)
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(c)
Revenue recognition (continued)
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.
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.
(d)
Foreign currencies
Functional and presentation currency
The financial statements of each 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.
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 32
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2023)
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(d)
Foreign currencies (continued)
Group companies
The financial statements of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group’s
presentation currency are translated as follows:
• Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;
•
Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year; and
• 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.
(e)
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.
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 33
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2023)
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(e)
Income tax and other taxes (continued)
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:
• 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.
• Receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
• The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of
receivables or payables in the consolidated statement of financial position.
• Cash flows are included in the consolidated 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.
(f)
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 consolidated 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 Group where clear title of ownership exists.
(g)
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at transaction 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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(h)
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. Inventories are recorded at weighted
average cost basis.
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 credited by the supplier.
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.
(i)
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.
(j)
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:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)(i)
(j) Intangibles assets other than goodwill (continued)
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.
(k)
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:
Office and warehouse equipment
Furniture and Fixtures
5 years
5 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.

(l)
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
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 consolidated statement of profit and
loss and other comprehensive income, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount in which case the
impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
(m)
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.

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.
(o)
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.
(p)
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.
(q)
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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
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.
(t)
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.
(u)
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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(u)
Share based payments (Cont.)
Equity settled transactions (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.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any non-market vesting conditions.
The charge to the consolidated statement of profit and loss and other 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.
(w)
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.
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 2023.

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash, trade and other receivables, trade 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 financial
assets at floating interest rates and debt obligations with a fixed interest rate. At reporting date, the Group had
the following financial instruments exposed to Australian variable interest rate risk.

To minimise the exposure to credit risk for financial liabilities, the Group entered into a fixed rate contract for
the finance facility. Accordingly, the financial liabilities are assessed as having a low credit risk.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Risk exposures and responses (continued)
Interest rate risk (continued.)
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 consolidated statement of financial
position and notes to the consolidated 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.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Foreign currency risk
The Group’s 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 2023, 78% of the Group’s financial liabilities will mature in less than one year (2022: 100%).
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 2023.
The remaining contractual maturities of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities are:

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 (CONTINUED)
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
Inventory provisions are recognised for slow-moving and unsalable inventory and are reviewed on a regular
basis. In determining inventory provisions, the Group reviews the aging and the category of the inventory in
order to make appropriate provisions to reflect the slow-moving risk of the inventory. Categories are
determined based on stock turnover rates. Progressively higher provisions are applied as inventory turnover
rates decrease. This methodology is significantly affected by the forecasted needs for inventory
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.

Deferred Tax Asset recognition
The Directors have determined it is not probable there is sufficient future taxable profits against which to offset
unutilised tax losses and temporary differences as at 30 June 2023 and consequently have:
• De-recognised the deferred tax asset recognised on past losses and timing differences brought
forward on 1 July 2022;
• Not recognised deferred tax asset on current year losses incurred during 2022-2023 $2,705,027.
The assessment of the probability of sufficient future taxable profits will be re-assessed at each reporting date.
The total sum of losses not recognised as a deferred tax asset at 30 June 2023 is $6,214,902 (2022: $1,686,275)

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

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 2023, 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 2023 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.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 2(a) in the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss after
tax of $3,303,673 for the year ended 30 June 2023 and had net cash inflows from operating activities of $
485,516 for the year ended 30 June 2023. As stated in Note 2(a), these events or conditions, along with
other matters as set forth in Note 2(a), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant
doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this
matter.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most
significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were
addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion
thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 64
1. Inventories
Area of focus
Refer to Note 4 Significant Accounting Estimates
and Judgements and Note 13 Inventories
The Group’s inventory of $4,747,855 is material to the
financial statements and has decreased by $5,040,341,
from the prior year balance of $9,788,196.
Inventory is required to be carried at the lower of its cost
and net realisable value. 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 mostly
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 audit matter.
2. Revenue recognition
Area of focus
Refer to Note 4 Significant Accounting Estimates
and Judgements and Note 7 Revenue
The Group sales revenue of $24,185,155 is material to
the financial statements and has decreased by
$26,109,439 from the prior year amount of $50,295,594.
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,
we have determined that this is a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Our audit procedures included:
• Obtaining an understanding and assessing key
controls over the valuation of inventory
• Comparing cost and subsequent sales prices to
ensure inventory was valued at the lower of cost
and net realisable value
• Evaluating the ageing of inventory and any
inventory that is expected to be slow moving
• Assessing the appropriateness of the inventory
provisioning policy adopted by management
• Ensuring costs assigned to inventory were
reasonable
• Obtaining an understanding of the methods,
assumptions and data used by management in
determining the need for writing down inventory
to net realisable value
• Assessing whether the methods, assumptions
and data were appropriate, and
• Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures in
the financial statements in respect of inventory.
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Our audit procedures included:
• Obtaining an understanding of the various
revenue streams and assessing key controls
over revenue recognition
• Evaluating whether the Group’s accounting
policy is in line with AASB 15 Revenue from
Contracts with Customers
• Obtaining an understanding of the methods,
assumptions and data used by management in
revenue recognition
• Assessing whether the methods, assumptions
and data were appropriate
• Evaluating the point of transfer of control to
customers
• Recalculating variable consideration
components, and
• Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures in
the financial statements in respect of revenue
recognition.
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 2023, but does not
include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 65
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:
•
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain
audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of
not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we
conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to
the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures,
and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for
Harris Technology Group Limited 2023 Annual Report 66
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

2023 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.

Standards.
