CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

The Board would normally delegate to management responsibility for:

-

-

-

-

developing and implementing corporate strategies and making recommendations on significant corporate 
strategic initiatives;

maintaining an effective risk management framework and keeping the Board and market fully informed 
about material risks;

developing iCandy Interactive Limited's annual budget, recommending it to the Board for approval and 
managing day-to-day operations within budget; and

managing day-to-day operations in accordance with standards for social and ethical practices which have 
been set up by the Board.

The current circumstances, however, require all these functions to be exercised by the Board members or the Company 
Secretary. The company does not currently have a performance evaluation method due to the current size and limited 
nature of its operations.

The Board has adopted a Board Charter which sets out the specific responsibilities of the Board, the requirements as to 
the Board's composition, the roles and responsibilities of the Chairman, Company Secretary and management, the 
establishment, operations and management of Board Committees, Directors' access to Company records and 
information, details of the Board's relationship with management, details of the Board's performance review and details of 
the Board's disclosure policy.

A copy of the Company's Board Charter is contained in the Company's Corporate Governance Plan which is available on 
the Company's website.

(c) 

Board size and composition

The Board determines its size and composition, subject to the limits imposed by iCandy Interactive Limited's Constitution. 
The Constitution requires a minimum of three and a maximum of twenty Directors. In addition, at least two of the Directors 
shall ordinarily reside within Australia. Currently, the Board consists of four directors. The Board supports the principles of 
diversity; however, due to the size and scale of the company's operations, it has no female representative on the board at 
the present time.

Election of the Board members is substantially the province of the Shareholders in general meetings.

(d)

The selection and role of the Chairman

The Chairman is selected by the Board from the executive and non-executive Directors. The Chairman's role includes:

-

-

-

-

-

-

providing effective leadership on formulating the Board's strategy;

representing the views of the Board to the public;

ensuring that, when all Board members take office, they are fully briefed on the terms of their appointment, 
their duties and responsibilities;

ensuring that the Board meets at regular intervals throughout the year, and that minutes of meetings 
accurately record decisions taken and, where appropriate, the view of individual Directors;

guiding the agenda and conduct of all Board meetings; and

reviewing the performance of the Board of Directors.

The Board charters provides that where practical, the Chairman of the Board will be a non-executive director. The 
Chairman, Kin Wai Lau is an executive director and is not considered by the Board to be independent.

(e) 

Directors' Independence

The Board assesses each of the Directors against specific criteria to decide whether they are in a position to exercise 
independent judgement. Directors are considered to be independent if they are independent of management and free 
from any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with, or could reasonable be perceived to materially 
interfere with, the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgement. Materiality is assessed on a case-by-case 
basis by reference to each Directors' individual circumstances rather than general materiality thresholds. In assessing 
independence, the Board considers whether the Director has a business or other relationship with iCandy Interactive 
Limited, either directly, or as a partner, shareholder or officer of a company or other company that has an interest, or a 
business or other relationship, with iCandy Interactive Limited or another iCandy Interactive Limited group member. 
Presently, the Company's independent director is Marcus Ungar. The Company may seek to appoint additional 
independent Directors in the future to address the lack of independence of its Directors.

governance, iCandy Interactive Limited's Constitution and the law. The Board collectively, and each Director individually 
has the right to seek independent professional advice at iCandy Interactive Limited's expense to help them carry out their 
responsibilities. While the Chairman's prior approval is needed, it may not unreasonably withheld and, in the its absence,

Controlling and managing risk

Approach to risk management

Taking and managing risk are central to business and to building shareholder value. iCandy Interactive Limited's

The Board is responsible for implementing the Board-approved risk management strategy and developing policies, 
controls, processes and procedures to identify and manage risks in all of iCandy Interactive Limited's activities.

Remuneration framework

(a)

Overview

The remuneration of an executive Director will be decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director 
participating in that decision-making process.

The total maximum remuneration of Non-Executive Directors are initially set by the Directors and subsequent variation is 
by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and 
the ASX listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of Directors' remuneration within that maximum will be made by 
the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive 
Director. The current amount has been set at an amount not to excess $150,000 per annum.

In addition, a Director may be paid fees or other amounts, (e.g. subject to any necessary Shareholder approval, non-cash 
performance incentives such as Options) as the Directors determine whether a Director performs special duties or 
otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director.

Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or 
about the performance of their duties as Directors.

The Board review and approves the remuneration policy to enable the Company to attract and retain executives and 
Directors who will create value for Shareholders having consideration to the amount considered to be commensurate for a 
company of its size and level of activity as well as the relevant Directors' time, commitment and responsibility. The Board 
is also responsible for reviewing any employee incentive and equity-based plans including the appropriateness of 
performance hurdles and total payments proposed.

(b)

Employee Share Options Scheme

There are no Employee Share Options Schemes (ESOS) granted over un-issued shares to directors or executives as part 
of their remuneration. The issue of any options would require approval by Shareholders.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of iCandy Interactive Limited and Controlled Entities ("group").

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 31 March 2021 by the directors of the company.

Note 1

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation

These general purpose consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting 
Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued 
by the International Accounting Standards Board. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. 
Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless 
stated otherwise.

Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accrual 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.

(a)

Principles of Consolidation

iCandy Interactive Limited's financial statements consolidated those of the Parent Company and all of its subsidiaries as of 31 December 2020. The 
Parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect 
those returns through its power over the subsidiary. All subsidiaries have a reporting date of 31 December.

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is 
obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Inter-company transactions, balances and 
unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have 
been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are recognised from the effective date of 
acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.

Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary's profit or loss and net assets that is not held by the 
Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests 
based on their respective ownership interests.

Business Combinations

Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under 
common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is obtained, whereby the fair value of the identifiable 
assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions). 

When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration 
arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent 
settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value, 
recognising any change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations, other than those associated with the issue of a financial instrument, are 
recognised as expenses in profit or loss when incurred.

The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. 

Goodwill

Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum of:
(i) the consideration transferred at fair value;
(ii) any non-controlling interest (determined under either fair value or proportionate interest method); and
(iii) the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest;

over the acquisition date fair value of any identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date fair value of any previously held 
equity interest shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial statements. 

Changes in the Group's ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as 
equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group's interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their 
relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the 
consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Group.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the 
aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets 
(including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive 
income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. 
reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable AASB Accounting Standards). The fair 
value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for 
subsequent accounting under AASB 9: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an 
investment in an associate or a joint venture.

The amount of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the Group holds less than 100% interest will depend on the method 
adopted in measuring the non-controlling interest. The Group can elect in most circumstances to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree 
either at fair value (full goodwill method) or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets 
(proportionate interest method). In such circumstances, the Group determines which method to adopt for each acquisition and this is stated in the 
respective note to the financial statements disclosing the business combination.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Note1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Under the full goodwill method, the fair value of the non-controlling interest is determined using valuation techniques which make the maximum use 
of market information where available.

Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in investments in 
associates.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group's cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units, representing the 
lowest level at which goodwill is monitored and not larger than an operating segment. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the 
carrying amount of goodwill related to the entity disposed of.

(b)

Income Tax

The income tax expense (income) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income).

Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income for the current period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are 
measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been 
enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses.  

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are recognised 
outside profit or loss or arising from a business combination.

A deferred tax liability shall be recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except to the extent that the deferred tax liability arises from: (a) the 
initial recognition of goodwill; or (b) the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which: (i) is not a business combination; and (ii) at the 
time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).

Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, where there is no effect on 
accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is 
settled and their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or 
liability. With respect to non-depreciable items of property, plant and equipment measured at fair value and items of investment property measured at 
fair value, the related deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset is measured on the basis that the carrying amount of the asset will be recovered 
entirely through sale. When an investment property that is depreciable is held by the entity in a business model whose objective is to consume 
substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the property through use over time (rather than through sale), the related deferred tax liability 
or deferred tax asset is measured on the basis that the carrying amount of such property will be recovered entirely through use.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that is probably that future taxable 
profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and 
liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will 
occur in the foreseeable future.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous 
realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where: (i) a legally enforceable 
right of set-off exists; and (ii) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same 
taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset 
and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

(c)

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis, depending on the requirements of the 
applicable accounting standard. 

Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly (i.e. unforced) transaction 
between independent, knowledgeable and willing market participants at the measurement date. 

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to determine fair value.  Adjustments 
to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability.  The fair values of assets and liabilities that are 
not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, 
the use of observable market data.

To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or liability (i.e. the market with the greatest 
volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous market available to the entity at the 
end of the reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the 
liability, after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs).

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s ability to use the asset in its highest and best use 
or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. 

The fair value of liabilities and the entity’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based payment arrangements) may be valued, 
where there is no observable market price in relation to the transfer of such financial instruments, by reference to observable market information 
where such instruments are held as assets.  Where this information is not available, other valuation techniques are adopted and, where significant, 
are detailed in the respective note to the financial statements.

Note1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(d)

Digital Currencies

Digital currencies are indefinite life intangible assets initially recognised at cost. The digital currencies are subsequently measured at fair value by 
reference to the quote price in an active digital currency market.

Any increases or decreases in the fair value of the digital currencies are recognised through the profit and loss, similar to any gains or losses upon 
the disposals of digital currencies.

(e)

Accounting for Common Control

Where the acquisition of entities that are deemed to be under common control occurs then consideration is required to determine the accounting 
acquirer. A new entity formed to effect a business combination through the issue of equity interests will not be regarded as the accounting acquirer, 
rather one of the combining entities that existed prior to the business combination shall be identified as the accounting acquirer.

The pooling of interests method is adopted for business combinations under common control. Existing book values for assets and liabilities at the 
date of acquisition will be recognised and fair value adjustments including new intangibles or goodwill will not be recognised. Any premium between 
the fair value of consideration paid and the book value of net assets is debited to a separate category of equity.

(f)

Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and 
impairment losses.

Property

Freehold land and buildings are carried at their fair value (being the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing 
parties in an arm's length transaction), based on periodic, but at least triennial, valuations by external independent valuers, less accumulated 
impairment losses and accumulated depreciation for buildings.

Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to a revaluation surplus in equity. Decreases that offset 
previous increases of the same asset are recognised against revaluation surplus directly in equity; all other decreases are recognised in profit or 
loss.

Any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated 
to the revalued amount of the asset.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment.  
In the event the carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down 
immediately to the estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses are recognised either in profit or loss. A formal assessment of recoverable 
amount is made when impairment indicators are present (refer to Note 1(i) for details of impairment).

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these 
assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset's employment and 
subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate 
proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future 
economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and 
maintenance are recognised as expenses in profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-
line basis over the asset's useful life to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are 
depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

Class of Fixed Asset

Leasehold improvements

Plant and equipment

Signages

Depreciation Rate

10-25%

10-25%

10-25%

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated 
recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are recognised in profit or 
loss in the period in which they arise. Gains shall not be classified as revenue. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation 
surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

(g)

Leases (the Group as lessee)

The Group as lessee

At inception of a contract, the Group assesses if the contract contains or is a lease. If there is a lease present, a right-of-use asset and a 
corresponding lease liability is recognised by the Group where the Group is a lessee. However, all contracts that are classified as short-term leases 
(lease with remaining lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low- value assets are recognised as an operating expense on a straight-line 
basis over the term of the lease.

Initially, the lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments still to be paid at commencement date. The lease payments are 
discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are as follows:
– fixed lease payments less any lease incentives;
– variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date;
– the amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
– the exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options;
– lease payments under extension options, if lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; and 
– payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease.

The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability as mentioned above, any lease payments made at or 
before the commencement date, as well as any initial direct costs. The subsequent measurement of the right-of-use assets is at cost less 
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or useful life of the underlying asset, whichever is the shortest.

Where a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset, or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group anticipates to exercise a 
purchase option, the specific asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset.

(h)

Financial Instruments

Recognition and Initial Measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial 
assets, this is the date that the Group commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).

Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs except where the instrument is 
classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss’ in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Where available, quoted 
prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted.

Classification and Subsequent Measurement

Financial instruments are subsequently measured at:

—

—

amortised cost; or

fair value through profit or loss.

A financial liability is measured at fair value through profit and loss if the financial liability is:

Amortised cost is calculated as the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments 
and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount 
calculated using the effective interest method.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest expense in profit or loss 
over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the internal rate of return of the financial asset or liability. That is, it is the rate that exactly 
discounts the estimated future cash flows through the expected life of the instrument to the net carrying amount at initial recognition.

The Group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures as being subject to the requirements of Accounting 
Standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.

(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets are classified at 'fair value through profit or loss" when they are held for trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking, 
derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance 
evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented 
risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying amount included in 
profit or loss.

(ii) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are 
subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial asset is derecognised.

(iii) Financial Liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities other than financial guarantees are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised 
in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial liability is derecognised.

A financial asset (or a group of financial assets) is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one 
or more events (a "loss" event) having occurred, which has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset(s).

In the case of available-for-sale financial assets, a significant or prolonged decline in the market value of the instrument is considered to constitute a 
loss event. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss immediately. Also, any cumulative decline in fair value previously recognised in other 
comprehensive income is reclassified intro profit or loss at this point.

In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost, loss events may include: indications that the debtors or a group of debtors are experiencing 
significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; indications that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial 
reorganisation; and changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account is used to reduce the carrying amount 
of financial assets impaired by credit losses. After having taken all possible measures of recovery, if management establishes that the carrying 
amount cannot be recovered by any means, at that point the written-off amounts are charged to the allowance account or the carrying amount of 
impaired financial assets is reduced directly if no impairment amount was previously recognised in the allowance account.

When the terms of financial assets that would otherwise have been past due or impaired have been renegotiated, the Group recognises the 
impairment for such financial assets by taking into account the original terms as if the terms have not been renegotiated so that the loss events that 
have occurred are duly considered.

(i)

Impairment of Assets

At the end of each reporting period, the company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will 
include the consideration of external and internal sources of information, including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures 
deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. 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 of disposal and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of 
the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount 
in accordance with another Standard (e.g. in accordance with the revaluation model in AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment ). Any impairment 
loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-
generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite lives and intangible assets not yet available for use.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of 
its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no 
impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in 
profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation 
increase.

(j)

Investments in Associates

An associate is an entity over which the company has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and 
operating policy decisions of the entity but is not control or joint control of those policies. Investments in associates are accounted for in the financial 
statements by applying the equity method of accounting, whereby the investment is initially recognised at cost (including transaction costs) and 
adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the company’s share of net assets of the associate. In addition, the Company’s share of the 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income is included in the financial statements.

The carrying amount of the investment includes, when applicable, goodwill relating to the associate. Any discount on acquisition, whereby the 
Company’s share of the net fair value of the associate exceeds the cost of investment, is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the 
investment is acquired.

Profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Company and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the 
associate.

When the Company’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Company discontinues recognising its share 
of further losses unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. When the associate 
subsequently makes profits, the Company will resume recognising its share of those profits once its share of the profits equals the share of the 
losses not recognised.

The requirements of AASB 128: Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures and AASB 9: Financial Instruments are applied to determine whether 
it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with respect to the Group’s investment in an associate or a joint venture. When necessary, the 
entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with AASB 136: Impairment of Assets as a single 
asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss 
recognised forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with AASB 136 to 
the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

Interests in Joint Arrangements

Joint arrangements represent the contractual sharing of control between parties in a business venture where unanimous decisions about relevant 
activities are required.

Separate joint venture entities providing joint venturers with an interest to net assets are classified as a joint venture and accounted for using the 
equity method. 

Joint operations represent arrangements whereby joint operators maintain direct interests in each asset and exposure to each liability of the 
arrangement. The company’s interests in the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of joint operations are included in the respective line items of 
the financial statements. 

Gains and losses resulting from sales to a joint operation are recognised to the extent of the other parties’ interests.  When the Company makes 
purchases from a joint operation, it does not recognise its share of the gains and losses from the joint arrangement until it resells those goods/assets 
to a third party.

(l)

Intangible Assets Other than Goodwill

Computer software

Computer software is recorded at cost. Where software is acquired at no cost, or for a nominal cost, the cost is its fair value, as at the date of 
acquisition. It has a finite life and is carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Software has an estimated useful life 
of between one and ten years. It is assessed annually for impairment.

Research and Development

Research and development is recorded at cost. It has a finite life and is carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. 
Research and development has an estimated useful life of three years. It is assessed annually for impairment.

Games Portfolio

Games Portfolio are externally acquired games that are recorded at cost. It has a finite life and is carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and 
any impairment losses. The Games Portfolio has an estimated useful life of five years. It is assessed annually for impairment.

(m)

Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of the Company is the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The financial statements 
are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.

Transaction and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign 
currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the 
exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair 
values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss, except exchange differences that arise from net 
investment hedges.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive income to the extent that the 
underlying gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the profit or loss.

The Company

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the entity’s presentation currency are translated as 
follows:

—
—
—

assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; 
income and expenses are translated at exchange rates on the date of transaction; and
all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with functional currencies other than Australian dollars are recognised in other 
comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position and allocated to non-controlling 
interest where relevant. The cumulative amount of these differences is reclassified into profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed 
of.

(n)

Employee Benefits

Short-term employee benefits

Provision is made for the Company’s obligation for short-term employee benefits.  Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination 
benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the 
related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave.  Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be 
paid when the obligation is settled.

The company’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as part of current trade and other 
payables in the statement of financial position.  The company’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long service leave entitlements are 
recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position. 

Other long-term employee benefits

Provision is made for employees’ long service leave and annual leave entitlements not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end 
of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service.  Other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present 
value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. 

The company’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as part of current trade and other 
payables in the statement of financial position.  The company’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long service leave entitlements are 
recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.

(o)

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of 
economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

(p)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and deposits available on demand with banks. Bank overdrafts are reporting within short-term 
borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position.

(q)

Revenue and Other Income

Accounting policy for revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised and measure at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable to the extent it is probable that the economic 
benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is recognised with reference to the completion by the 
Company of specific performance obligations of contracts with customers, as described below.

Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue is recognised on the purchase of mobile gaming applications and licencing services to customers in an amount that reflects the 
consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

All contracts with effect from 1 January 2018 (either written, verbal or implied) are identified, together with the separate performance obligations 
within the contract and the transaction price is determined. Adjustments are made for the time value of money excluding credit risk and the 
transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a basis of relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good/service. 
The estimation approach is taken if no distinct observable prices exists and revenue is recognised when each performance obligation is satisfied.

Credit risk is presented separately as an expense, rather than adjusted to revenue. For goods, the performance obligation is satisfied when the 
customer takes control of the goods. For services, the performance obligation is satisfied when the service has been performed, typically for 
promises to transfer services to customers. For performance obligations satisfied over time, the Company selects an appropriate measure of 
progress to determine how much revenue is recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied.

Mobile game applications revenue

Revenue from mobile game application sales are recognised at the time of the game application purchase.

Publishing revenue

The Company receives revenue for publishing income in relation to mobile game applications. The publishing revenue is recognised at the time the 
service is provided.

Interest 

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax.

(r)

Trade and Other Receivables

Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business. 
Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are 
classified as non-current assets.

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, 
less any provision for impairment. Refer to Note 1(i) for further discussion on the determination of impairment losses.

(s)

Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables represent the liabilities for goods and services received by the entity that remain unpaid at the end of the reporting period. 
The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amounts normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

(t)

Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the 
Australian Taxation Office (ATO).  

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, 
the ATO is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable 
from, or payable to, the ATO are presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers.

(u)

Government Grants

Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all grant conditions will be 
met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant to the costs it is compensating. 
Grants relating to assets are credited to deferred income at fair value and are credited to income over the expected useful life of the asset on a 
straight-line basis.

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial 
year. 

Where the company retrospectively applies an accounting policy, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its financial statements,

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current 
information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both 
externally and within the company.

(i)  Key judgements and estimates - Intellectual Property - Research and Development

In determining the development expenditures to be capitalised, the Group makes estimates and assumptions based on expected future 
economic benefits generated by products that are the result of those development expenditures. Other important estimates and assumptions in 
this assessment process are the distinction between R&D and the estimated useful life.

Development costs associated with intangible assets are only capitalised by the Group when it can demonstrate the technical feasibility of 
completing the asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale, how the asset will generate future economic benefits and the ability to 
measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

Development costs in respect to software are internally generated, and have a finite useful life. The amortisation method is line over the period 
of the expected benefit, being 3 years. Impairment testing is undertaken when impairment indicators exist.

(ii) Key Estimate - Taxation

Refer to Note 4 - Income Tax

(iii) Key judgements and estimates - Impairment

The Group assess impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that may lead to impairment of assets. 
Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Value-in-use calculations performed in assessing 
recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates. There is also judgement applied in determining recoverability of asset.

(v) Key judgements and estimates - Share-based payments

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at 
which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the assumptions 
detailed in Note 22 - Share-based payments.

The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by AASB 9, which permits the use of the lifetime expected 
loss provision for all trade receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk 
characteristics and the days past due. The loss allowance provision as at 31 December 2020 is determined as follows; the expected credit losses also 
incorporate forward-looking information.

The "amounts written off" are all due to customers declaring bankruptcy, or term receivables that have now become unrecoverable.

The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counter party or group of counter parties other than those receivables 
specifically provided for and mentioned within Note 9. The class of assets described as Trade and Other Receivables is considered to be the main source 
of credit risk related to the Group.

On a geographic basis, the Group has significant credit risk exposures in Malaysia given the substantial operations in that region. The Group's exposure 
to credit risk for receivables at the end of the reporting period in those regions are as follows:

The Group always measures the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit loss. The expected credit losses on 
trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor's current 
financial position, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an 
assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date.

There has been no change in the estimation techniques or significant assumptions made during the current reporting period.

The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect 
of recovery, e.g. when the debtor has been placed under liquidation or has entered into bankruptcy proceedings, or when the trade receivables are over 
two years past due, whichever occurs earlier. None of the trade receivables that have been written off is subject to enforcement activities.

Operating Segments

General Information

Identification of reportable segments

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the board of directors (chief operating 
decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. 

The Group is managed primarily on the basis of product category and service offerings as the diversification of the Group's operations inherently have 
notably different risk profiles and performance assessment criteria.  Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.

Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic 
characteristics and are also similar with respect to the following:

—

the products sold and/or services provided by the segment;

Types of products and services by segment

(i)

Development and sale of digital media (except games)

The Group is engaged in the development of software for interactive digital media (except games).

(ii)

Design and development of intellectual properties for software applications and games

The Group is also engaged in the design and development of intellectual properties for software applications and games.

Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments

(a)

Accounting policies adopted

Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief operating decision makers with respect to operating 
segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in the annual financial statements of the 
Group.

(b)

Segment assets

Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of the economic value from the 
asset.  In most instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.

(c) 

Segment liabilities

Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment.  
Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and 
other payables and certain direct borrowings.

(d)

Unallocated items

The following items of revenue, expense, assets and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of the core 
operations of any segment:

• Impairment of assets and other non-recurring items of revenue or expense
• Income tax expense
• Current tax liabilities
• Other financial liabilities
• Intangible assets

The directors are responsible for iCandy Interactive Limited's risk management strategy and management is responsible for implementing the directors' 
strategy. A risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of finance markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on financial 
performance. iCandy Interactive Limited uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include 
sensitivity analysis in the case on interest rate and market risk. iCandy Interactive Limited does not use derivatives.

The consolidated entity's financial instruments consist of deposits with banks and accounts receivables and payables. The main purpose of non-derivative 
financial instruments is to raise finance for group operations.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk consisting of interest rate risk and 
foreign currency risk.

a. Credit risk

Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead 
to a financial loss to the Group.

The Group does not have any significant risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The 
credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited as the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by 
international credit rating agencies.

The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowances for losses, represent the Group's maximum 
exposure to credit risk.

b.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to 
financial liabilities.  The Group manages this risk through the following mechanisms:

• preparing forward-looking cash flow analyses in relation to its operating, investing and financing activities;
• obtaining funding from a variety of sources;
• maintaining a reputable credit profile; and
• only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions

The table below reflects an undiscounted contractual maturity analysis for financial liabilities. Bank overdrafts have been deducted in the analysis as 
management does not consider that there is any material risk that the bank will terminate such facilities. The bank does however maintain the right to 
terminate the facilities without notice and therefore the balances of overdrafts outstanding at year-end could become repayable within 12 months. 
Financial guarantee liabilities are treated as payable on demand since the Group has no control over the timing of any potential settlement of the 
liabilities.

Cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may therefore differ from 
that disclosed. The timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflect the earliest contractual settlement dates and do not 
reflect management’s expectations that banking facilities will be rolled forward.

The Group's exposure to market risk primarily consists of financial risks associated with changes in interest rates as detailed below. As the level of 
risk is low, the Group does not use any derivatives to hedge its exposure.

The Group is not exposed to interest rate risk on its non-current borrowings as the terms of the loan agreement stipulates that no interest is payable.

ii. Foreign currency risk

Exposure to foreign currency risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign 
exchange rates of currencies in which the Group holds financial instruments which are other than the AUD functional currency of the Group.

With instruments being held by overseas operations, fluctuations in the SGD Dollar and Malaysia Ringgit may impact on the Group’s financial results 
unless those exposures are appropriately hedged.

The following significant exchange rates were applied during the year.

Malaysia
Indonesian Rupiah

Fair Values

Fair value estimation

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the following table and can be compared to their carrying amounts as presented 
in the statement of financial position. Refer to Note 26 for detailed disclosures regarding the fair value measurement of the group’s financial assets and 
financial liabilities.

Differences between fair values and carrying amounts of financial instruments with fixed interest rates are due to the change in discount rates being 
applied by the market since their initial recognition by the Group.

Note 26

Fair Value Measurements

The Group measures and recognises the following assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis after initial recognition: 

— investments accounted for using the equity method.

The Group does not subsequently measure any liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

(a) Fair value hierarchy

AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement  requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair value 
measurements into one of three possible levels based on the lowest level that an input that is significant to the measurement can be categorised into 
as follows:

Level 1

Level 2

Level 3

Measurements based on quoted prices 
(unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets 
or liabilities that the entity can access at the 
measurement date.

Measurements based on inputs other than 
quoted prices included in Level 1 that are 
observable for the asset or liability, either 
directly or indirectly.

Measurements based on unobservable inputs 
for the asset or liability.

The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These 
valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data.  If all significant inputs required to measure fair value are 
observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability 
is included in Level 3.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Note 25: Financial Risk Management (continued)

Valuation techniques

The Group selects a valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value.  The 
availability of sufficient and relevant data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the asset or liability being measured. The valuation 
techniques selected by the Group are consistent with one or more of the following valuation approaches: 

●

Market approach: valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions for identical or similar 
assets or liabilities.

●

Income approach: valuation techniques that convert estimated future cash flows or income and expenses into a single discounted present value.

●

Cost approach: valuation techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset at its current service capacity.

Each valuation technique requires inputs that reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would use when pricing the asset or liability, including 
assumptions about risks. When selecting a valuation technique, the Group gives priority to those techniques that maximise the use of observable 
inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs that are developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual 
transactions) and reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered observable, 
whereas inputs for which market data are not available and therefore are developed using the best information available about such assumptions are 
considered unobservable.

Digital currencies have been value using Level 1 input. Market value has been determined by various platforms, including 
https://coinmarketcap.com/.

When the Company acquired Appxplore (iCandy) Limited, formerly known as iCandy Ventures Limited, a company incorporated in British Virgin 
Island and iCandy Digital Pte Ltd, a company incorporated in Singapore, this transaction was assessed as a transaction involved entities under 
common control. The Company was formed to effect the business combination and consideration was settled via the issue of equity interests. As the 
Company was incorporated to effect the transactions, it was determined that iCandy Interactive Limited would be the legal acquirer and Appxplore 
(iCandy) Limited would be the accounting acquirer as it was an entity that was carrying on a business prior to the business combination,

In accordance with the accounting policy adopted, all assets and liabilities will  be recorded at their book value at the date of acquisition. The 
remaining difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the book value of the net assets acquired is allocated to equity.

For personal use onlyIndependent Auditor's Report 

To the Members of iCandy Interactive Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of iCandy Interactive Limited (“the Company”) and 
its subsidiaries (“the Consolidated Entity”), which comprises the consolidated statement 
of financial position as at 31 December 2020, 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: 

a. 

the accompanying financial report of the Consolidated Entity is in accordance with 
the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

(i) 

giving a true and fair view of the Consolidated Entity’s financial position as 
at 31 December 2020 and of its financial performance for the year then 

ended; and 

(ii) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations 
Regulations 2001. 

b. 

the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards 
as disclosed in Note 1. 

Basis for Opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.  Those 
standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit 
engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 

whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. 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 Consolidated Entity in 
accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 

and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards 
Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are 

relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other 
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to 
provide a basis for our opinion.

Independent Auditor’s Report 
To the Members of iCandy Interactive Limited (Continued) 

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit 
of the financial report of the current period.  These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the 
financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on 
these matters. 

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Intangible assets – Research and Development 
costs 

As disclosed in note 13, the Consolidated Entity has 
intangible assets of $2,677,469, of which 

$1,232,515 related to capitalised research and 
development costs. 

Capitalised research and development costs are 
considered to be a key audit matter due to the size 
of the size of the balance and the judgement 
required in recognising development costs in line 
with the accounting standards and assessment for 
impairment.  

Recoverability of other financial assets 

The  Consolidated  entity  has  provided  loans  to 
multiple  entities  including  related  parties  and  to 
external parties, totalling $1,248,758, as disclosed in 
Note 10. 

Due to the quantum of the loans, the recoverability of 
the loans were considered a key audit matter. 

Our procedures amongst others included: 

  Evaluating the nature of the type of the research 
and development expenses incurred that are 
capitalized into intangible assets 

  Evaluating the appropriateness of expenses 
capitalised, on a sample basis, including the 
verification of the material external costs and 

employees costs to external invoices and 
internal payroll records. 

  Assessing whether there are any indicators of 

impairment of the asset, including understanding 
management’s planned future commercialisation 
activities;  

  Comparing market capitalisation as at sign-off 
date to the carrying value of net assets at year-
end; and  

  Assessing the appropriateness of the disclosures 
included in Note 13 to the financial statements. 

Our procedures amongst others included: 

  Obtaining loan confirmations; 

  Discussions held with management over the 

recoverability of the loans;  

  Assessment of the counterparty’s capacity to 

repay the loan; and  

We assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures 
included in Notes 10 to the financial report. 

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Independent Auditor’s Report 
To the Members of iCandy Interactive Limited (Continued) 

Other Information  

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information 
included in the Consolidated Entity’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2020, but does not include 
the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and 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 Note 1, the 
directors also state in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial 
Statements, that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.  

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Consolidated Entity’s ability to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going 
concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Consolidated Entity or to cease 
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. Our objectives are to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, 
whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance 
is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian 
Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.  Misstatements can arise from 
fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be 
expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement 

and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or 
error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is 
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material 
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve 
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
Independent Auditor’s Report 
To the Members of iCandy Interactive Limited (Continued) 

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 Consolidated Entity’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 Consolidated Entity’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 Consolidated Entity 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 Consolidated Entity to express an opinion on the financial report. We are 
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Consolidated Entity 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, related safeguards. 

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
