Chairman’s Letter 

A letter from 
our Chairman 

Dear shareholders and friends, 

I am pleased to provide you with Identitii’s FY21 
Annual Report. 

Over the past twelve months we have enjoyed 
stability and alignment on our Board, meeting 
frequently with our CEO and key leadership team 
members to discuss key issues and continue 
reviewing the effectiveness of our strategy. In 
addition to ensuring good governance and 
effective return on capital, the Board’s primary 
focus is our customer acquisition and revenue 
growth plans, which I am confident will accelerate 
in the year ahead. We are also mindful of our 
other value drivers, such as our U.S. Patent, our 
Payble joint venture with CommBank’s 
x15ventures, and several other emerging projects. 

We also welcomed Tim Phillipps to the Board of 
Directors this year, following his 45-year career 
with Deloitte, ASIC and the Victoria Police, where 
he specialised in regulatory technology and 
fighting financial crime. Tim has been a fantastic 
addition to the Board, leveraging his industry 
knowledge, experience and network to help the 
team evolve our strategy and connect us with 
senior decision makers within the financial 
services industry. Tim’s appointment also 
addressed the need for further independent 
governance, in addition to our Co-founder and 
CEO who are both heavily invested in the 
business. 

The Board is proud of the achievements our team 
delivered this year, although we are certainly 
mindful that our acquisition of new customers was 
below expectation. That said, we are optimistic 
about our strategy, confident there is significant 
and genuine demand for our products, and fully 
supportive of our CEO’s ability to execute 
successfully in the year ahead. 

Thank you for your ongoing support. I look 
forward to a successful year ahead. 

Steve James, 
Chairman

A letter from our CEO 

A letter from 
our CEO 

Dear shareholders and friends, 

There are many reasons to be proud of this past 
year, as we made tremendous advances in some 
less visible foundations for success, that will 
deliver benefit this year and beyond. Of particular 
note, I am immensely proud of the team and the 
culture we have built, and increasingly confident in 
both our evolving strategy and its execution. That 
said, there is little doubt we fell short of our new 
customer aspirations and that shareholders and 
the market were hoping for more. 

Identitii’s incredible network of supporters, both 
shareholders and observers alike, is one of our 
key brand assets that we consistently leverage to 
secure productive meetings with prospective 
customers. This traction, together with our 
growing brand awareness and recognition within 
the industry, continue to inspire and reassure 
everyone at Identitii that we will genuinely deliver 
our vision of a trusted and transparent global 
financial services industry. 

The right strategy 

Identitii is a growing RegTech provider solving the 
problem that, whilst money moves around the 
world with relative ease today, there is growing 
demand from government regulators and 
customers to see more granular information about 
individual financial transactions. For most of the 
global financial services industry, the use of 
multiple legacy systems, that create and store 
data in different formats and locations, makes it 
incredibly difficult to meet this demand. 

Globally, we are witnessing significant growth in 
fines, reputational damage and jail-time for 
executives, for non-compliance with growing 
regulatory requirements. This increasing scrutiny, 
predominantly on the legacy technology used by 
most of the industry, is driving significant interest 
in the technology Identitii is developing. Our 
strategy to enhance what is already there enables 
our customers to quickly meet the demands of 
regulators and customers alike.

Evolving for success 

Whilst we have relished significant interest in our 
technology from some of the biggest global 
brands in the industry, both here in Australia and 
in other key global markets, the industry’s lengthy 
and complicated buying journey remains our 
biggest challenge. This is something that has a 
significant impact on us, yet we have very little 
control over. 

Perhaps the biggest lesson we have learned this 
year, is that working hard to close these large 
deals can take a very long time, consume 
significant capital and frustrate shareholders in the 
process. Whilst winning these deals should, and 
will, always form part of our core revenue growth 
strategy – we’ve recognised the need to look for 
alternative, additional revenue streams to help us 
scale. 

This is why we were so excited to recently 
announced the launch of a Software-as-a-Service 
version of the Identitii platform, and the first 
customer in an all-new segment to sign with us. 
Novatii (ASX:NOV) are the first of many new 
customers that will help us grow revenue in a 
more linear fashion, to stabilise market sentiment 
during periods between the larger wins. 

The right culture 

“Culture eats strategy for breakfast” – said 
consultant and writer Peter Drucker, implying that 
a powerful and empowering culture is a surer 
route to organisational success, than a great 
strategy. I’m hopeful that at Identitii we have both. 

We survey the temperature of our team every 
three weeks, and more than 90% of our team 
have responded over the past three months, 
meaning they believe giving feedback is a 
worthwhile exercise because we will do something 
with it. And we certainly do. 

To provide a little more insight into our culture, our 
two highest scoring questions are “Taking 
everything into account, I would say that (Identitii) 
is a great place to work” at 83% (last three 
months) average and “Identitii inspires me to do 
my best work every day” at 81% average. We are 
right to be very proud of these key cultural 
indicators.

The right people 

Over the past twelve months, Identitii has 
implemented a scalable organisational design, 
that focuses heavily on attracting and engaging 
customers, to ensure there is real, validated 
market demand for the products we build. 
Identifying and creating the right roles, from sales 
and marketing, to product and technology, and 
information security, is critical to ensure 
operational efficiency and the best possible return 
on shareholder capital. 

With the right structure in place, the Company has 
been able to focus on attracting some fantastic 
talent, recruiting leaders from within the banking 
industry to help us better understand our 
prospective customers, and software engineers 
from successful technology companies to help us 
stay ahead of emerging trends. I am supremely 
confident in the team we have built and their 
ability to deliver our strategy in the year ahead. 

Summarising the year 

I am very proud of the long list of achievements 
the team delivered this year, increasingly 
optimistic about our strategy given the validation 
our technology is receiving in the market, and 
confident that all translates into real value in the 
year ahead. I am also conscious this past year 
delivered less customer growth than was 
expected of us and hope I have provided enough 
insights into our awareness of that, but more 
importantly into what we are already doing 
differently this year as a result. 

I hope you enjoy reading our annual report, and 
take this opportunity to say thank you for your 
continued support of the Board, the Executive and 
our Team. 

Regards, 
John Rayment 
Chief Executive Officer

Principal activities 

The  principal  activities  of  the  Group  during  the  financial  year  were  business  development,  marketing  and 
research and development activities, as well as further development of Identitii’s Overlay+ platform. During the 
year, Identitii announced a revised RegTech strategy which allowed it to focus on delivering growth across five 
key areas: 

•  Deliver: Focus on servicing existing clients including HSBC, Mastercard, HomeSend and, as of July 2021, 

Novatti; 

• 

Land: Leverage AUSTRAC’s public discussion of regulatory non-compliance to drive sales of Overlay+ 
Reporting; 

•  Expand: Grow reporting deals to include Request use cases (correspondent bank and remediation) once 

contracts are agreed; 

• 

Innovate:  continuously  improve  the  core  Overlay+  platform  through  ongoing  innovation  and  product 
updates; and 

•  Monetise:  Maximise  other  previous  technology  investments,  which  no  longer  fit  the  Company’s  core 

RegTech strategy. 

Identitii operates in a growing market, with global spending on RegTech solutions predicted to reach US$130 
billion by 2025 (Juniper Research, ‘RegTech: Market Opportunities, Challenges and Forecasts 2021-2025’). 
Increasing enforcement of regulatory obligations by governments around the world, including AUSTRAC who 
levied $2 billion in fines for non-compliance in the past two years alone, rising financial crime, the appearance 
of  new  players  in  the  financial  services  industry  and  accelerated  adoption  of  digital  technologies  have 
combined to push regulated entities to find new, technology-based ways to simplify and automate how they 
conduct financial crime compliance.  

Identitii is well placed to take advantage of this trend with its Overlay+ platform that makes it easier for regulated 
entities to process payments and ensure compliance. Identitii gives financial services businesses a single view 
of their data, solving the problem that the information needed to process and report financial transactions is 
often incomplete, inaccurate, or even missing, holding up payments and increasing the risk of non-compliance.

(SPP).  On  6  January  2021,  the  Company  issued  a  total  of  13.7  million  shares  at  $0.146  per  share  to

(30 June 2020: $941,592), an increase of 45% from the prior year. The Group reported a net loss after tax of 
$5,873,875 for the year ended 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $7,074,479) which was substantially driven by 
salary and employee benefit expenses and expenditure on research and development (R&D) related activities.

Annual Report FY21 

Review of operations (continued) 

Directors Report  

The Group held $33,039 of borrowings and leases at 30 June 2021, had a positive net current asset balance 
of $4,843,582 and a positive overall net asset balance of $5,002,124. 

The Group had $4,489,311 of cash and cash equivalents on hand at 30 June 2021 and reported a net cash 
outflow from operating activities of $4,759,614 during the year ended 30 June 2021.  

Significant changes in the state of affairs 

During the year, Identitii Limited founded new subsidiary Payble Pty Ltd (Payble) in conjunction with Elliott 
Donazzan.  Subsequent  to  incorporation,  CBA  New Digital  Businesses  Pty  Ltd  (x15ventures)  invested $1.0 
million in Payble to acquire a minority ownership stake and to assist in accelerating its growth plans. Identitii 
Limited holds a 60% majority shareholding as at 30 June 2021.  

In the opinion of the Directors there were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group that 
occurred during the year ended 30 June 2021, other than noted above. 

Dividends 

No dividends were declared or paid by the Company during the financial year ended 30 June 2021. 

Events subsequent to reporting date 

Following the results of a General Meeting held on 6 July 2021 the Company issued 285,714 shares at $0.07 
per share to John Rayment in full and final settlement of his loan. Furthermore, 1,000,000 share options with 
an exercise price of $0.25 were issued to both Steven James and Nicholas Armstrong in their capacity as Non-
Executive  Directors  of  the  Company.  These  share  options  vest  over  three  years  pending  continued 
employment and expire on 8 July 2024. 

On  30  July  2021,  the  Group  announced  it  had  signed  a  three-year  licence  agreement  with  Novatti  Group 
Limited  worth  $0.2  million.  The  licence  is  for  the  Group’s  new  Software  as  a  Service  (SaaS)  version  of 
Overlay+. 

Other than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the year and 
the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of 
the Directors, to affect significantly in future financial years the operations of the Group, the results of those 
operations, or the state of affairs of the Group. 

Likely developments 

The Group will continue to develop the Overlay+ platform and continue to sign new customers and grow its 
pipeline of partners. This will require further investment in product and business development and marketing. 

Further information about likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those 
operations in future financial years has not been included in this report because disclosure of the information 
would likely result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group. 

Environmental regulation 

The Group’s operations are not regulated by any significant law of the Commonwealth or of a State or Territory 
relating to the environment.

The Board are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor, is 
compatible  with,  and  did  not  compromise,  the  auditor  independence  requirements  of  the  Corporations  Act 
2001 for the following reasons: 

• 

• 

all  non-audit  services  have  been  reviewed  by  the  Board  to  ensure  they  do  not  impact  integrity  and 
objectivity of the auditor; and 

none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in the 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical 
Standards  Board,  including  reviewing  or  auditing  the  auditor's  own  work,  acting  in  a  management  or 
decision-making capacity for the company, acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic 
risks and rewards.

Directors Report  

Audited Remuneration Report 

The Directors present the Remuneration Report (the Report) for the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) 
for the year ended 30 June 2021. This Report forms part of the Directors’ Report and has been audited in 
accordance  with  Section  300A  of  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  The  Report  details  the  remuneration 
arrangements for the Group’s Key Management Personnel (KMP): 

•  Executive Directors and other KMP 

•  Non-Executive Directors 

KMP are those persons who, directly or indirectly, have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and 
controlling the major activities of the Group.  

1.  Principles of remuneration 

The performance of the Group depends upon the quality and commitment of the Directors and Executives. 
The philosophy of the Directors in determining remuneration levels is to: 

• 

• 

• 

set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees;  

link executive rewards to shareholder value creation; and 

establish appropriate hurdles for variable executive remuneration. 

The  Nomination  and  Remuneration  Committee  reviews  and  make  recommendations  to  the  Board  on  the 
Group’s remuneration policies, procedures and practices. It also defines the individual packages offered to 
Executive Directors and KMP, for recommendation to the Board. 

The Board may consider engaging an independent remuneration consultant to advise the Board on appropriate 
levels of remuneration relative to its industry peer group. 

In  accordance  with  Corporate  Governance  best  practice  (Recommendation  8.2),  the  structure  of  Non-
Executive Director and Executive remuneration is separate and distinct as follows: 

a)  Non-Executive Directors 

Fixed and variable remuneration 

The Board seeks to set Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration at a level that provides the Group with 
the ability to attract and retain Directors of a high calibre whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to 
shareholders. 

The ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of Non-Executive Directors shall be 
determined from time to time by a general meeting. This amount has been fixed by the Company at 
$250,000. The amount of aggregate remuneration and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst 
directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice from shareholders and takes into account 
the  fees  paid  to  Non-Executive  Directors  of  comparable  companies  when  undertaking  the  annual 
review process. 

Non-Executive Directors’ base fees cover all main board activities and membership of all committees; 
however, they do not receive performance-related compensation and are not provided with retirement 
benefits apart from statutory superannuation. Non-executive Directors are entitled to participate in the 
Equity Incentive Plan.

b)  Executives and Executive Director remuneration 

Remuneration for Executives and Executive Directors consists of fixed and variable remuneration only.  

Fixed remuneration 

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Directors. The process consists of a review of relevant 
comparative remuneration in the employment market and within the Group. The Group may engage 
an independent remuneration consultant to advise the Board on appropriate levels of remuneration for 
the Group’s Executive Directors relative to its industry peer group. 

Variable remuneration 

Variable remuneration is provided in the form of share options under the Group Equity Incentive Plan 
(EIP). Under the EIP, one share option entitles the holder to one share in the Company subject to 
vesting conditions. Executives and Executive Directors vesting conditions are linked to continued years 
of service and may be linked to performance hurdles. The Board have the discretion to settle share 
options with a cash equivalent payment. Participants in the EIP will not pay any consideration for the 
grant of the share option unless determined otherwise. Share options will not be listed and may not be 
transferred,  assigned  or  otherwise  dealt  with  unless  approved  by  the  Directors.  If  the  executive’s 
employment  terminates  before  the  share  options  have  vested,  the  share  options  will  lapse,  unless 
approved otherwise by the Board.  

2.  Details of remuneration 

Details of the remuneration of the KMP as defined in AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures are set out in Table 
1 which follows. 

The KMP of the Group have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of 
the Group. The KMP make or participate in making decisions that affect the whole, or a substantial part, of the 
business or who have the capacity to affect significantly the Group’s financial standing. 

The KMP of the Group are the Executive and Non-Executive Directors and the Chief Financial Officer.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

1.  Reporting entity 

Identitii Limited (the Company) is a Company incorporated and domiciled in Australia and whose shares are 
publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX:ID8). The registered office and principal place of 
business is Level 2, 129 Cathedral Street, Woolloomooloo, NSW 2011.  

These  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  subsidiaries  of  Identitii 
Limited as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Identitii Limited and its 
subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the Group. 

The Group is a for profit entity and is primarily involved in developing and licensing enterprise software for 
regulated entities. Its main product Overlay+ is a platform that helps reduce regulatory risk, without replacing 
technology systems.  

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 26 August 
2021. 

2.  Basis of preparation 

These consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared 
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards 
Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial statements comply with International 
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).  

Details of the Group’s accounting policies are included in Note 6. 

Going concern 

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis which contemplates the continuity of normal 
business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business 
and assumes the Group will have sufficient cash resources to pay its debts as and when they become due 
and payable for at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial report. 

The statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 30 June 2021 reflects a 
loss for the year of $5,873,875 and total cash outflows from operating activities of $4,759,614.  

The Directors believe that it is reasonably foreseeable that the Company will continue as a going concern and 
that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial report after considering 
the following: 

•  The Group has $4,489,311 in cash and cash equivalents as at the balance date; 

•  The Group successfully raised $8.9 million in funding during the year ended 30 June 2021 and is evaluating 

plans to secure additional funding later in the calendar year; 

•  The Group has the ability to scale back a significant portion of its expenditure if required; and 

• 

the Company signed a Master Service Agreement with Mastercard during the year, extended its contract 
with HSBC for a further three years and has other potential customer engagements in the pipeline. 

Consequently,  the  Directors  have  concluded  there  are  reasonable  grounds  to  believe  that  the  Group  will 
continue to be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable for a period of no less than 12 
months from the date of signing this financial report and that the preparation of the 30 June 2021 financial 
report on a going concern basis is appropriate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

3.  Functional and presentation currency 

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the Group’s functional 
currency. The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) 
Instrument 2016/191 and in accordance with that instrument, amounts in the consolidated financial statements 
and directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest Australian dollar, unless otherwise stated.  

4.  Use of judgements and estimates 

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that 
affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income 
and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and 
on various other factors, including expectations of future events that management believe to be reasonable 
under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.  

Estimates  and  underlying  assumptions  are  reviewed  on  an  ongoing  basis.  Revisions  to  estimates  are 
recognised prospectively. 

a)  Judgements  

Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect 
on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes: 

COVID-19  pandemic  –  judgement  has  been  exercised  in  considering  the  impacts  that  the  COVID-19 
pandemic has had, or may have, on the Group based on known information. This consideration extends 
to  the  nature  of  the  services  offered,  customers,  staffing  and  geographic  regions  in  which  the  Group 
operates; and 

Note 8 – revenue recognition: whether revenue from licence fees is recognised over time or at a point in 
time. 

b)  Assumptions and estimation uncertainties  

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties at 30 June 2021 that have a significant risk 
of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial 
year are as follows: 

The measurement and realisation of the R&D tax incentive: determining the percentage of expenditure 
that is directly attributable to eligible R&D activities when measuring the R&D tax incentive. Uncertainty 
exists over the quantum and timing of realisation of the R&D tax incentive claim until such time as the 
claim has been examined and accepted by the Australian Tax Office (ATO);   

Note 11 – recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which deductible 
temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can and cannot be utilised; and 

Note 29 – share based payments: key assumptions in determining the valuation of share based payment 
transactions on grant date. Key assumptions include expected expiry dates, volatility rates and likelihood 
of vesting.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

5.  New or amended accounting standards and interpretations 

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are mandatory for the current reporting period. 

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early 
adopted in preparing these consolidated financial statements. 

A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or 
after 1 April 2021 and earlier application is permitted; however, the Group has not early adopted the new or 
amended standards in preparing these consolidated financial statements.  

The following amended standards and interpretations are not expected to have a significant impact on the 
Group’s consolidated financial statements: 

•  AASB 2021-03 Amendments to Covid-19 Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021;   

•  AASB 2020-8 Amendments to Interest Rate Benchmark Reform; 

•  AASB 2014-10 Amendments to Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or 

Joint Venture;  

•  AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current;  

•  AASB 2020-3 Amendments to Annual Improvements 2018-2020 and Other Amendments;  

•  AASB 2021-2 Amendments to Disclosure of Accounting Policies and Definition of Accounting Estimates; 

•  AASB 17 Insurance Contracts. 

6.  Significant accounting policies 

a)  Principles of consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Identitii 
Limited as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Identitii Limited and 
its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the Group. 

Subsidiaries are those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the 
Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the 
ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully 
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from 
the date that control ceases.  

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group 
are  eliminated.  Unrealised  losses  are  also  eliminated  unless  the  transaction  provides  evidence  of  the 
impairment  of  the  asset  transferred.  Accounting  policies  of  subsidiaries  have  been  changed  where 
necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. 

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in 
ownership  interest,  without  the  loss  of  control,  is  accounted  for  as  an  equity  transaction,  where  the 
difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling 
interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent. 

Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes 
in equity of the Group. Losses incurred by the subsidiaries are attributed to the non-controlling interest in 
full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

Identitii Limited 
Annual Report FY21 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

6.    Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities 
and  non-controlling  interest  in  the  subsidiary  together  with  any  cumulative  translation  differences 
recognised in equity. The Group recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value 
of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss. 

b)   Foreign currency transactions 

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the Group at the exchange 
rates at the dates of the transactions. 

Monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  are  translated  into  the  functional 
currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured 
at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when 
the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign 
currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences 
are generally recognised in profit or loss and presented within general expenses. 

c)  Revenue from contracts with customers 

Information about the Group’s accounting policies relating to contracts with customers is provided in Note 
8. 

d)  Research and development tax incentive 

The R&D tax incentive encourages companies to engage in R&D benefiting Australia, by providing a tax 
offset (or a cash refund if in a tax loss position) for eligible R&D activities. The Group recognises the R&D 
tax incentive in profit or loss when the Group incurs the eligible R&D expenditure. The R&D tax incentive 
income is presented on a gross basis and is not netted off against the R&D costs to which it relates.  

e)  Government grants 

The  Group  recognises  an  unconditional  government  grant  in  profit  or  loss  when  the  grant  becomes 
receivable. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss on a 
systematic basis in the periods in which the expenses are recognised. The grants are recognised on a 
gross basis in income and are not netted off against the expenditure to which it relates. 

Refer to Note 9 for further details.  

f)  Employee benefits 

Short-term employee benefits 

Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for 
the amount expected to be paid under short
sharing plans if the Group has a 
present  legal  or  constructive  obligation to  pay  this  amount  as  a  result  of  past service  provided  by  the 
employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Annual Report FY21 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

6.    Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Other long

term employee benefits 

‑

The Group’s net obligation in respect of long
term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that 
employees  have  earned  in  return  for  their  service  in  the  current  and  prior  periods.  That  benefit  is 
discounted to determine its present value. Re-measurements are recognised in profit or loss in the period 
in which they arise. 

‑

Termination benefits 

Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of 
those benefits and when the Group recognises costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be 
settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date, they are discounted. 

Share based payment arrangements 

Equity-settled share based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions 
are  awards  of  shares,  or  options  over  shares,  that  are  provided  to  employees  in  exchange  for  the 
rendering of services.  

The  cost  is  measured  at  fair  value  on grant  date  using  a  suitable  option  pricing  model  such  as  Black 
Scholes,  Binomial  or  Monte  Carlo.  The  grant  date  fair  value  of  equity  settled  share  based  payment 
arrangements  is  recognised  as  an  expense,  with  a  corresponding  increase  in  equity  over  the  vesting 
period of the award. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards 
for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that 
the amount ultimately recognised is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and 
non-market  performance  conditions  at  the  vesting  date.  For  share  based  payment  awards  with  non-
vesting  conditions,  the  grant  date  fair  value  of  the  share  based  payment  is  measured  to  reflect  such 
conditions  and  there  is  no  true  up  for  differences  between  expected  and  actual  outcomes.  Market 
conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market 
conditions  are  considered  to  vest  irrespective  of  whether  or  not  that  market  condition  has  been  met, 
provided all other conditions are satisfied. 

g)  Income tax 

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the 
extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity. 

Current tax 

Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year 
and  any  adjustment  to  the  tax  payable  or  receivable  in  respect  of  previous  years.  The  amount  of  tax 
payable or receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects 
uncertainty  related  to  incomes  taxes,  if  any.  It  is  measured  using  tax  rates  enacted  or  substantively 
enacted at the reporting date. Current tax also includes any tax liability arising from dividends. 

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met. 

Deferred tax 

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets 
and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

6.    Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Deferred tax is not recognised for: 

• 

• 

temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a 
business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss; and 

temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that the Group is able to 
control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not 
reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  unused  tax  losses,  tax  credits  and  deductible  temporary 
differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they 
can be utilised. Future taxable profits are determined based on the reversal of relevant taxable temporary 
differences. If the amount of taxable temporary differences is insufficient to recognise a deferred tax asset 
in full, the future taxable profits, adjusted for reversals of existing temporary differences, are considered, 
based on the business plans for individual subsidiaries in the Group. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at 
each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit 
will be realised; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves. 

Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and recognised to the extent 
that is has become probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used. 

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when 
they reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement 
of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Group expects, 
at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.  

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met. 

h)  Current and non-current classification 

Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current 
classification.  

An  asset  is  classified  as  current  when:  it  is  either  expected  to  be  realised  or  intended  to  be  sold  or 
consumed  in  the  Group’s  normal  operating  cycle;  it  is  held  primarily  for  the  purpose  of  trading;  it  is 
expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent 
unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting 
period. All other assets are classified as non-current.  

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the Group’s normal operating 
cycle;  it  is  held  primarily  for  the  purpose  of  trading;  it  is  due  to  be  settled  within  12  months  after  the 
reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 
months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.  

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. 

i)  Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other 
short-term,  highly  liquid  investments  with  original  maturities  of  three  months  or  less  that  are  readily 
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

j)  Trade and other receivables  

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using 
the  effective  interest  method,  less  any  allowance  for  expected  credit  losses.  Trade  receivables  are 
generally due for settlement within 45 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.  

k)  Contract assets  

Contract assets are recognised when the Group has transferred goods or services to the customer but 
where the Group is yet to establish an unconditional right to consideration. Contract assets are treated as 
financial assets for impairment purposes. 

l)  Property, plant and equipment 

Recognition and measurement 

Items  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  are  measured  at  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation  and 
accumulated impairment losses. 

If  significant  parts  of  an  item  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  have  different  useful  lives,  they  are 
accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. 

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit or loss. 

Subsequent expenditure 

Subsequent  expenditure  is  capitalised  only  when  it  is  probable  that  the  future  economic  benefits 
associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group. 

Depreciation 

Depreciation  is  calculated  to  write  off  the  cost  of  items  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  less  their 
estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives and is generally 
recognised in profit or loss.  

The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment for current and comparative periods are as 
follows:

m) Intangible assets 

Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are 
not amortised and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets 
are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised 
in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between 
net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of 
finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or 
useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period. 

The estimated useful lives of intangible assets for current and comparative periods are as follows: 

Acquired software 

n)  Trade and other payables 

2021 

1 year 

2020 

1 year 

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 days of recognition.  

o)  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 the goods or 
services to the customer. 

p)  Borrowings 

Loans  and  borrowings  are  initially  recognised  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received,  net  of 
transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

q)  Leases 

The Group adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019 applying the modified retrospective approach, under which 
the cumulative effect of initial application was recognised in retained earnings at 1 July 2019. Except for 
short-term leases and leases of low-value assets, right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities 
are recognised in the statement of financial position.  

For classification within the statement of cash flows, the interest and the principal portion of the lease 
payments are disclosed in financing activities.  

For lessor accounting, the standard did not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases.

6.    Significant accounting policies (continued) 

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 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 remeasurement of lease liabilities. 

Lease liabilities 

A  lease  liability  is  recognised  at  the  commencement  date  of  a  lease.  The  lease  liability  is  initially 
recognised as 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 incentive receivables; 

variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate; 

amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees; and 

the 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. 

Short-term leases and low-value assets  

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 on a straight line basis to profit or loss over the lease term. 

r)  Financial instruments 

Recognition and initial measurement 

Trade receivables are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial 
liabilities are initially recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the 
instrument.  

A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or financial 
liability is initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition 
or  issue.  A  trade  receivable  without  a  significant  financing  component  is  initially  measured  at  the 
transaction price.

Classification and subsequent measurement 

Financial assets 

On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortised cost; fair value in other 
comprehensive income (FVOCI) – debt investment; FVOCI – equity investment; or fair value through profit 
or loss (FVTPL).  

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its 
business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified 
on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model.  

A  financial  asset  is  measured  at  amortised  cost  if  it  meets  both  of  the  following  conditions  and  is  not 
designated as FVTPL: 

• 

• 

It is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets primarily to collect contractual 
cash flows; and 

Its contractual term gives rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal 
and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI test). 

The Group does not have any debt or equity investments that are classified and measured at FVOCI. 
Therefore,  all  financial  assets  that  do  not  meet  the  classification  requirements  for  amortised  cost  are 
classified and measured at FVTPL. 

Financial  assets  –  assessment  whether  contractual  cash  flows  are  solely  payments  of  principal  and 
interest 

For the purpose of this assessment, principal is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial 
recognition.  Interest  is  defined  as  consideration  for  the  time  value  of  money  and  for  the  credit  risk 
associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic 
lending risks and costs, as well as profit margin.  

In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Group 
considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset 
contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it 
would not meet this condition. In making this assessment, the Group considers: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash flows; 

terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate; 

prepayment and extension features; and 

terms that limit the Group’s claim to cash flows from specified assets. 

A  prepayment  feature  is  consistent  with  the  solely  payments  of  principal  and  interest  criterion  if  the 
prepayment  amount  substantially  represents  unpaid  amounts  of  principal  and  interest  on  the  principal 
amount outstanding, which may include reasonable additional compensation for early termination of the 
contract. Additionally, for a financial asset acquired at a discount or premium to its contractual par amount, 
a feature that permits or requires prepayment at an amount that substantially represents the contractual 
par amount plus accrued contractual interest is treated as consistent with this criterion if the fair value of 
the prepayment feature is insignificant at initial recognition.

Financial assets – subsequent measurement and gains and losses 

Type of financial asset 

Financial assets at FVTPL 

Financial assets at 
amortised cost 

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and 
losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in profit 
or loss. 

These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the 
effective interest method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment 
losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and 
impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on 
derecognition is recognised in profit or loss. 

Financial liabilities – classification, subsequent measurement and gains and losses  

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified 
as  FVTPL  if  it  is  classified  as  held-for-trading,  it  is  a  derivative  or  it  is  designated  as  such  on  initial 
recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including 
any  interest  expenses,  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss.  Other  financial  liabilities  are  subsequently 
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange 
gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in 
profit or loss.  

Derecognition 

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial 
asset  expire,  or  it  transfers  the  rights  to  receive  the  contractual  cash  flows  in  a  transaction  in  which 
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the 
Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not 
retain control of the financial asset. The Group also derecognises a financial asset when its terms are 
modified and the cash flows associated with the modified asset are substantially different, in which case 
a new financial asset based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. 

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or 
expire. The Group also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows 
of  the  modified  liability  are  substantially  different,  in  which  case  a  new  financial  liability  based  on  the 
modified terms is recognised at fair value. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between 
the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred 
or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.  

Offsetting 

Financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  offset  and  the  net  amount  presented  in  the  statement  of 
financial position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to offset the 
amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability 
simultaneously.

s)  Impairment 

A.  Non-derivative financial assets 

Financial instruments and contract assets 

The Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses (ECLs) on: 

• 

• 

financial assets measured at amortised cost; and 

contract assets 

The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, except for the following, 
which are measured at 12-month ECLs: 

• 

• 

financial assets (excluding trade receivables) that are determined to have low credit risk at the 
reporting date; and 

other financial assets and bank balances for which credit risk (ie. the risk of default occurring over 
the  expected  life  of  the  financial  instrument)  has  not  increased  significantly  since  initial 
recognition. 

Loss allowances for trade receivables and contract assets are always measured at an amount equal 
to lifetime ECLs and are calculated using a provision matrix under the simplified approach.  

When  determining  whether  credit  risk  of  a  financial  asset  has  increased  significantly  since  initial 
recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information 
that  is  relevant  and  available  without  undue  cost  or  effort.  This  includes  both  quantitative  and 
qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit 
assessment and includes forward looking information and the use of macro-economic factors.  

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased if it is more than 30 days 
past due.  

The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when: 

• 

• 

the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the 
Group to actions such as realising security (if held); or  

the financial asset is more that 90 days past due. 

Lifetime  ECLs  are  the  ECLs  that  result  from  all  possible  default  events  over  the  expected  life  of  a 
financial instrument.  

12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the 12 
months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 
12 months). 

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which 
the Group is exposed to credit risk.  

Measurement of ECLs 

ECLs are a probability weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present 
value of all cash shortfalls (ie. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance 
with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the 
effective interest rate of the asset.

Identitii Limited 
Annual Report FY21 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

6.    Significant accounting policies (continued) 

ECLs  for  trade  receivables  and  contract  assets  are  calculated  using  a  provision  matrix  based  on 
historical  default  rates  adjusted  for  current  and  forecast  credit  conditions  including  other  business, 
financial and economic factors such as geographical region and external credit rating.  

Credit impaired financial assets  

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost are 
credit impaired. A financial asset is credit impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental 
impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.  

Evidence that a financial asset is credit impaired includes the following: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

significant financial difficulty of the borrower; 

a breach of contract such as default or being more that 90 days past due;  

restructuring  of  an  amount  due  to  the  Group  on  terms  that  the  Group  would  not  consider 
otherwise; or 

it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation. 

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying 
amount of the assets.  

There have been no changes in estimation techniques or significant assumptions made during the 
year. 

Write off 

The  gross  carrying  amount  of  a  financial  asset  is  written  off  when  the  Group  has  no  reasonable 
expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For corporate customers, 
the Group individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write off based 
on whether there is reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group expects no significant recovery for 
the  amount  written  off.  However,  financial  assets  that  are  written  off  could  still  be  subject  to 
enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.  

B.  Non

financial assets 

‑

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets to determine 
whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable 
amount is estimated. 

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates 
cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or 
cash generating units (CGUs). 

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less 
costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present 
value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money 
and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. 

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable 
amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. They are allocated to reduce the carrying 
amount of assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent 
that  the  asset’s  carrying  amount  does  not  exceed  the  carrying  amount  that  would  have  been 
determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

6.    Significant accounting policies (continued) 

t)  Share capital 

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from 
equity. Income tax relating to transaction costs of an equity transaction is accounted for in accordance 
with AASB 112. 

u)  Goods and services tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the 
acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.  

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

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or 
financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating 
cash flows.  

v)  Comparative figures 

Comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial 
year where required by Accounting Standards or as a result of changes in Accounting Policy. 

w) Fair value 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly 
transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the 
most advantageous market to which the Group has access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects 
its  non-performance  risk.  A  number  of  the  Group’s  accounting  policies  and  disclosures  require  the 
measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.  

When one is available, the Group measures fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active 
market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place 
with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. If there is no 
quoted  price in  an  active market,  then  the  Group  uses  valuation  techniques  that  maximise  the  use  of 
relevant observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique 
incorporates all of the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction.  

The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is normally the transaction 
price ie. the fair value of the consideration given or received.  

If the Group determines that the fair value on initial recognition differs from the transaction price and the 
fair value is evidenced neither by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability nor 
based on a valuation technique for which any unobservable inputs are judged to be insignificant in relation 
to the measurement, then the financial instrument is initially measured at fair value, adjusted to defer the 
difference  between  the  fair  value  on  initial  recognition  and  the  transaction  price.  Subsequently,  that 
difference is recognised in profit or loss on an appropriate basis over the life of the instrument but no later 
than when the valuation is wholly supported by observable market data or the transaction is closed out.

7.  Operating segments 

An operating segment is a component of the Group 

• 

• 

that  engages  in  business  activities  from  which  it  may  earn  revenues  and  incur  expenses  (including 
revenue and expenses relating to transactions with the Group’s other components), and 

whose  operating  results  are  reviewed  regularly  by  the  Group’s  chief  operating  decision  maker  for  the 
purpose of making decisions about allocating resources to the segment and assessing its performance. 

The  Group  currently  has  one  reportable  segment,  which  develops  and  licenses  enterprise  software  for 
regulated entities. The revenues and profits generated by the Group’s operating segment and segment assets

8.  Revenue  

The  Group  generates  revenue  primarily  from  the  licensing  of  enterprise  software  and  the  provision  of 
professional and maintenance services to its customers.  

a)  Performance obligations and revenue recognition policies 

Under its contracts, the Group grants a licence to the customer for the use of its software. The contract 
will specify the term of the licence, the jurisdictions in which the licence may be utilised and protocols to 
be followed to extend the licence beyond the agreed licence term.  

The contracts also facilitate the provision of certain software, training, maintenance, customisation and 
configuration or other services from the Group in consideration for the payment of fees. The customer is 
granted, for the term of each contract, a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable and royalty-free licence to 
use the software in a specific use case.  The Group retains all rights, title and interest in the intellectual 
property of the software.

8.    Revenue (continued) 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

The Group is currently recognising revenue under these contracts for licence fees, maintenance fees, 
usage fees and professional services, each regarded as a separate performance obligation. Revenue is 
measured  based  on  the  consideration  specified  in  the  contract  and  is  recognised  when  the  Group 
transfers control over the product or service to the customer. Charges are determined by a number of 
factors including transaction volume, customisation requirements, ongoing support and maintenance and 
new feature releases.  Pricing changes for each renewal term are to be mutually agreed in writing.   

The following table provides information about the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance 
obligations in its contracts with customers including the related revenue recognition policies.  

Product and 
services 

Licence fees 

Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations 

The  contracts  require  the  Group  to  undertake  maintenance  and  software 
enhancement activities throughout the licence period that significantly affects 
the intellectual property (IP) to which the customers have rights. The nature of 
the Group’s performance obligation in granting a licence is regarded as a right 
to access the IP and thus the Group recognises licence fee revenue over time. 

Licence fee revenue is recognised in equal monthly instalments from the date 
the licence is first transferred and for the term of the contract. The licence fee 
is a fixed annual fee as specified in the contract.   

There  remains  $627,502  in  relation  to  contracted  licence  fees  for  which  no 
revenue  or  deferred  revenue  has  been  recognised  as  the  performance 
obligations have not been met as at 30 June 2021.  

Maintenance fees 

Maintenance (software, equipment and hosted services maintenance) is to be 
provided to customers on an ongoing basis from the date the licence is first 
transferred and throughout the term of the contract.  

The maintenance fee is a fixed annual fee as specified in the contract.   

Under AASB 15, the performance obligation to provide maintenance services 
is first met upon transfer of the licence and is ongoing throughout the term of 
the contract. The total maintenance fee revenue to be billed under the contract 
is recognised in equal monthly instalments over time from the date the licence 
is first transferred. 

There remains $55,364 in relation to contracted maintenance fees for which no 
revenue  or  deferred  revenue  has  been  recognised  as  the  performance 
obligations have not been met as at 30 June 2021.

Product and 
services 

Usage fees 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  

Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations 

Usage fee revenue is determined by the number of successful transactions (as 
defined in the contract) and is based on information provided to the Group by 
the  customer.  Usage  fees  are  recognised  only  when  the  later  of  the  usage 
occurs  and  the  licence  fee  obligation  has  been  satisfied.  Usage  fees  are 
variable fees and may be subject to an annual cap as specified in the contract. 

The Group recognises usage fee revenue over time based on when the usage 
occurs. 

Professional services  
(including setup, 
training and other 
support costs) 

Professional  services  include  setup,  training  and  support  costs  as  well  as 
individual  customisation  projects  that  are  separate  and  distinct  performance 
obligations. 

The Group recognises revenue at a point in time based on time and materials 
incurred in delivering the product and services to its customers as per the terms 
and prices specified in the contract. Invoices are generated on confirmation of 
product and service delivery and revenue is recognised at that point in time.  

There  remains  $341,709  in  relation  to  contracted  professional  services  for 
which  no  revenue  or  deferred  revenue  has  been  recognised  as  the 
performance obligations have not been met as at 30 June 2021.  

Where revenue is billed in advance, a contract liability is recognised and amortised over the period of the 
invoice.    Where  revenue  is  billed  in  arrears,  a  contract  asset  is  recognised  at  the  time  of  revenue 
recognition and transferred to trade receivables when the invoice is generated.   

Warranties, returns and refunds 

The warranty period will run from the licence start date and over a specified period of time. Under the 
warranty period the Group undertakes that the product and services supplied are of satisfactory quality 
and  fit  for  purpose,  free  from  defects  in  design,  operate  in  accordance  with  the  contract  and  that 
appropriate master copies are maintained by the Group. 

In the event of an unresolved third party intellectual property rights claim, customers may elect to return 
all deliverables under the contract and be refunded in full for all charges paid by the customer to date. 
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of 
cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. Due to the absence of any third party intellectual property 
rights claims during the current and prior period, no adjustment has been made to revenue recognised 
during the period for expected returns. 

Customers may terminate or partially terminate the contract by written notice to the Group. Customers 
shall be entitled to a pro-rata refund of fees paid in advance of the termination date unless termination by 
the customer is for no reason. Due to the absence of any such written notices to the Group during the 
current  and  prior  period,  no  adjustment  has  been  made  to  revenue  recognised  during  the  period  for 
expected refunds on termination.

The Export Market Development Grant (EMDG) scheme is a key Australian Government financial assistance 
program that encourages small to medium sized Australian businesses to develop export markets by granting 
funding to cover eligible export expenditure, up to a maximum claim of $150,000. The Group recognises the 
EMDG in profit or loss when the application is successful and the Group receives an unconditional right to the 
income.  

COVID-19 related grants were temporary subsidies for businesses affected by COVID-19 and consisted mostly 
of the JobKeeper and Cash Flow Boost payment schemes. Both schemes have closed as at the date of this 
report. 

• 

• 

Under  the  JobKeeper  scheme,  eligible  employers  could  apply  to  receive  up  to  $1,500  per  eligible 
employee per fortnight. The Group recognised the JobKeeper payments in profit or loss when the related 
salaries were paid to eligible employees. The Company was eligible for JobKeeper up to 31 December 
2020. 

Under the Cash Flow Boost payment scheme, eligible businesses who employed staff received a cash 
flow boost in the form of a credit when lodging their activity statements. This was to cover the tax withheld 
from salaries paid to employees for the period covered by the activity statement. The Group recognised 
the Cash Flow Boost in profit or loss when the activity statement was lodged.

10.  Reassessment of lease terms  

a)  Leases 

The Group leases office space in Australia over an initial term of three years with an option to extend for 
a further three years. The lease has an escalation clause to account for inflation over time and, on renewal, 
the terms of the lease will be renegotiated. On initial application of AASB 16: Leases on 1 July 2019, the 
lease liability and right-of-use asset in relation to this office lease were calculated using a six year lease 
term as it was assumed the option to extend would be exercised.  

Due to a change in circumstances, the Group has decided not to exercise its option to extend the lease. 
The current lease will expire in August 2021, following which it will default to a monthly term with either 
party  giving  3  months’  notice  to  terminate.  This  reassessment  of  the  lease  term  has  resulted  in  a 
remeasurement  of  the  lease  liability  and  right-of-use  asset  with  the  following  impact  on  the  financial 
statements for the year ended 30 June 2021: 

Decrease in lease liability 

Decrease in right-of-use asset 

Gain on lease modification 

b)  Office fit out 

30 June 2021 
$ 

459,651 

(387,646) 

(72,005) 

In line with the above, the Group reassessed the useful life of the office fit out asset from six years to 
three  years  to  align  with  the  end  of  the  current  lease  in  August  2021.  This  is  treated  as  a  change  in 
accounting estimate and has resulted in an acceleration of office fit out depreciation in the current year of 
$184,454 as follows: 

Office fit out depreciation for the year – six years useful life 

Office fit out depreciation for the year – three years useful life

The Group reassessed its office lease term from six to three years during the year, resulting in a decrease in 
carrying amount of the right-of-use asset by $387,646. Similarly, the Group reassessed the useful life of the 
office fit out asset from six years to three years resulting in an acceleration of depreciation in the current year. 
Refer to Note 10 for further details.  

The Group leases office space in Hong Kong under agreement for six months with an option to extend. As this 
lease is short-term and of low value, it has been expensed as incurred during the year and not capitalised to 
right-of-use assets.

The provision for annual leave includes all unconditional entitlements where employees have completed the 
required  period  of  service  and  also  where  employees  are  entitled  to  pro-rata  payments  in  certain 
circumstances. The entire amount is presented as current, since the Group does not have an unconditional 
right to defer settlement. However, based on past experience, the Group does not expect all employees to 
take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next 12 months.

21.  Capital management 

The  Group’s  policy  is  to  maintain  a  strong  capital  base  so  as  to  maintain  investor,  creditor  and  market 
confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Management monitors the return on capital. 

The  Group  monitors capital  using  a ratio  of  net  debt  to  equity.  Net  debt  is  calculated  as  total  liabilities (as 
shown in the statement of financial position) less cash and cash equivalents. The Group’s net debt to equity 
ratio at 30 June was as follows:

23.  Financial instruments – fair values and risk management 

i.  Accounting classifications and fair values 

The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities is a reasonable approximation of 
fair value due to their short term nature.  

ii.  Financial risk management 

The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments: 

• 

• 

• 

credit risk (see ii (b)) 

liquidity risk (see ii (c)) 

foreign currency risk (see ii (d)) 

a)  Risk management framework 

The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the 
Group’s  risk  management  framework.  The  Board  of  Directors  has  established  the  Audit  and  Risk 
Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. 

The  Group’s  risk  management  policies  are  established  to  identify  and  analyse  the  risks  faced  by  the 
Group,  to  set  appropriate  risk  limits  and  controls  and  to  monitor  risks  and  adherence  to  limits.  Risk 
management  policies  are  reviewed  regularly  to  reflect  changes  in  market  conditions  and  the  Group’s 
activities. 

b)  Credit risk 

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument 
fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers. 
The carrying amount of financial assets and contract assets represents the maximum credit exposure. 
Impairment losses on financial assets and contract assets recognised in profit or loss are as follows: 

Increase / (decrease) in impairment loss on trade 
receivables and contract assets arising from contracts 
with customers 

30 June 2021 
$ 

30 June 2020 
$ 

2,530 

(2,291) 

Trade receivables and contract assets 

The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. 
Management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base including 
the default risk associated with the industry and country in which the customers operate.  

The Group limits its exposure to credit risk from trade receivables by establishing a maximum payment 
period of 45 days for corporate customers. 

Expected credit loss assessment for corporate customers  

The  Group  uses  a  provision  matrix  to  measure  ECLs  of  trade  receivables  from  corporate  customers, 
which comprise of a small number of large balances.

23. Financial instruments – fair values and risk management (continued)

The  Group  is  still  in  its  early  stages  of  revenue  generation  with  a  small  customer  base  and  therefore
doesn’t  have  extensive  historical  information  on  which  to  base  its  loss  rates.  Its  loss  rates  are
management’s  best  estimate  based  on  industry  comparatives  and  will  be  updated  at  every  reporting
period to reflect current and forecast credit conditions including other business, financial and economic
factors. Loss rates are determined separately for each credit risk grade, based on external credit rating
definitions from a reputable credit rating agency. To date no customer balances have been written off or
credit impaired at the reporting date.

The following tables provides information about the exposure to credit risk and ECLs for trade receivables
and contract assets for corporate customers as at 30 June 2021.

Cash and cash equivalents and other receivables 

The Group held cash and cash equivalents of $4,489,311 at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $1,411,309). 
The  majority  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents  are  held  with  financial  institution  counterparties,  which  are 
rated A- to AA, based on credit agency ratings. The Group considers its cash and cash equivalents to 
have low credit risk based on the external credit ratings of the counterparties. 

The Group held other receivables of $153,831 at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $186,343). The Group 
considers its other receivables to have low credit risk based on historical data available, the reputation of 
the counterparties and the systematic ease with which the receivables are recoverable.  

The  Group  did  not  recognise  an  impairment  allowance  for  cash  and  cash  equivalents  and  other 
receivables during the current and prior year under review.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with 
its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach 
to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities 
when they are due without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.  

The  Group  manages  liquidity  risk  by  monitoring  forecast  cash  flows  and  ensuring  that  adequate,  but 
manageable,  borrowing  facilities  are  maintained.  The  Group  also  monitors  the  level  of  expected  cash 
inflows on trade and other receivables together with expected cash outflows on trade and other payables.

d)  Foreign currency risk 

The Group is exposed to transactional foreign currency risk to the extent that there is a mismatch between 
the currencies in which sales, purchases, receivables and borrowings are denominated and the respective 
functional  currencies  of  the  Group  companies.  The  Group’s  exposure  to  foreign  currency  risk  is 
concentrated primarily in trade receivables which are invoiced in United States Dollars (USD). As USD 
sales increase there will be a natural hedge in place as majority of Group expenditure is in Australian 
Dollars (AUD). Other foreign currency risk is not material at present.  

Exposure to foreign currency risk  

The following is the summary quantitative data about the Group’s exposure to currency risk as reported 
to the management of the Group:

values  as  at  the  end  of  the  reporting  period,  assuming  all  other  variables  that  might  impact  fair  value 
remain constant, then the impact on profit or loss for the year would be as follows:

A number of these entities transacted with the Group during the year. The terms and conditions of the 
transactions with KMP and their related parties were no more favourable than those available, or which 
might reasonably be expected to be available, on similar transactions to non-KMP related entities on an 
arm’s length basis. 

The aggregate value of transactions and outstanding balances related to KMP and entities over which 
they have control or significant influence were as follows:

(iii) Equity Incentive Plan (equity settled)

On 10 January 2018 the Group established the Equity Incentive Plan (EIP). This is a long-term plan
under which share options or performance rights to subscribe for shares may be offered to eligible
employees  and  consultants  as  selected  by  the  Directors  at  their  discretion.  Currently  only  share
options have been awarded under the EIP.

Under the EIP, one share option entitles the holder to one share in the Company subject to vesting
conditions such as the satisfaction of performance hurdles and/or continued employment. The Board
have the discretion to settle share options with a cash equivalent payment. Participants in the EIP will
not pay any consideration for the grant of the share option unless determined otherwise. Share options
will not be listed and may not be transferred, assigned or otherwise dealt with unless approved by the
Board.

lapse, unless approved otherwise by the Board. Eligible employees holding a share option pursuant 
to the EIP have no rights to dividends and are not entitled to vote at shareholder meetings until that 
share option is vested and, where required, exercised.   

On 30 April 2021, the Company issued 14,100,000 share options at an exercise price of $0.15 per 
share to eligible employees. The  share options vest in equal instalments from grant date pending

31. Subsequent events

Following the results of a General Meeting held on 6 July 2021 the Company issued 285,714 shares at $0.07 
per share to John Rayment in full and final settlement of his loan. Furthermore, 1,000,000 share options with 
an exercise price of $0.25 were issued to both Steven James and Nicholas Armstrong in their capacity as Non-
Executive  Directors  of  the  Company.  These  share  options  vest  over  three  years  pending  continued 
employment and expire on 8 July 2024.  

On  30  July  2021,  the  Group  announced  it  had  signed  a  three-year  licence  agreement  with  Novatti  Group 
Limited  worth  $0.2  million.  The  licence  is  for  the  Group’s  new  Software  as  a  Service  (SaaS)  version  of 
Overlay+. 

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is ongoing and it is not practicable to estimate the potential impact, 
positive or negative, after the reporting date. The situation is rapidly developing and is dependent on measures 
imposed  by  the  Australian  Government  and  other  countries,  such  as  maintaining  social  distancing 
requirements, quarantine, travel restrictions and any economic stimulus that may be provided.

Refer to Note 20 in the financial statements. 

During  the  year,  Identitii  Limited  founded  a  new 
subsidiary  Payble  Pty  Ltd  (Payble)  in  conjunction 
with Elliott Donazzan. Subsequent to incorporation, 
CBA New Digital Businesses Pty Ltd (x15ventures) 
invested  $1m  in  Payble  to  acquire  a  minority 
ownership  stake  and  to  assist  in  accelerating  its 
growth  plans.  Identitii  Limited  continues  to  hold  a 
60% majority shareholding as at 30 June 2021. 

We identified the formation of the new subsidiary and 
the  resultant  minority  investment  as  a  key  audit 
matter due to the following: 

 

It is as significant transaction that occurred 
during  the  period,  and  their  judgement 
involved  in  applying  the  requirements  of

and incoming equity.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

The directors of the Group are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view 
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control 
as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair 
view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.  

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

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

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

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and 
Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf
