A letter from our
Chairperson
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
As I reflect on the past year, I want to thank you for
your patience and support for Identitii.
It has been a challenging 12 months, driven partly
by market sentiment and downward pressure on
technology companies globally and by revenue
growth within our Company that has not met
expectations.

Market Opportunity
The focus of global Regulators on data security (in
the wake of significant cyber breaches) and
financial crime reporting in the financial services
industry has not diminished and, if anything, has
become more intense. This presents our business
with both an opportunity and a risk.
The opportunity suggests that the industry will be
under increasing pressure from regulators to
reduce the risks associated with manual analysis,
and insecure methods of sharing and reporting
critical data both internally and to regulators. This
is likely to lead to them investing more in
technologies that make it easier to ensure the
security of sensitive data both when it is stored or
when regulations require it to be shared. This
should present additional revenue generation
opportunities for the Company, that may also be
enhanced by changes to local and international
privacy regulations and new companies falling
under financial crime regulations, such as Tranche
2 in Australia.
The risk is that this also demands a much higher
standard and demonstrable data
security
standards by service providers, which is likely to
result in expanded security assessments and
vetting of companies like Identitii who are looking
to provide these services to customers. I am
confident we can meet these challenges given a
significant focus by the entire business on ensuring

Our Team
We have rightsized our team over the past year in
terms of numbers and skill sets to ensure that our
costs are sustainable, and our skill sets are
concentrated on our “One Platform” strategy. As
we have evolved our platform and reduced or
removed legacy software components, this has
positioned us well to take advantage of future
opportunities.
The entire team continues to operate at an
impressive level and is extraordinarily committed to
the company's success. While demand for skilled
software engineers in this field is incredibly high,
we have consistently been able to retain our
talented and capable team.
To my observation, this is mainly due to the quality
of our leadership, the clarity and importance of our
purpose, and our people's “get stuff done” culture.
Over the past year, our new CTO, Tim Dickinson,
has developed an impressive and exciting product
roadmap that not only builds on our history but also
positions us very well to expand our product
offering in the near future. With this roadmap, we
expect to increase our sector sales without the
need for extensive platform revisions.
resulting
Our new Head of Operations, Ben Jackson, has
successfully established unparalleled information
security standards,
impeccable
information security audit outcomes. With his
unwavering passion and extensive knowledge, he
has dramatically reduced our risk of compromise
and secured our reputation as a highly reliable
business entity in the eyes of our current and
prospective customers.
in
During the year, we also secured the services of
CFO Rebecca Shooter-Dodd, who significantly
improved our financial management and provided
long-term fiscal guidance to support sustainable
product development.
Cost Management
We have also continued to look for opportunities to
reduce operating costs responsibly to ensure we
extend our cash runway without limiting our ability
to meet our client’s expectations or restrain our
ability to enhance our platform in areas that we
believe will create new market and revenue
opportunities. It is a constantly evolving balance
that requires commitment and agility from everyone
in the business.

A letter from our CEO
A letter from
our CEO
Dear shareholders and friends,
Identitii and
the exciting opportunity
Thank you for your continued support and interest
the
in
Company is pursuing in an ever-changing global
marketplace. FY23 was a year of significant
change for Identitii, and I am pleased to report that
the Company made strong progress in several key
areas that are already positively impacting our
ability to deliver sustainable growth in the coming
year/s.
We delivered our One Platform Strategy to
resolve legacy complexity, by focusing on only one
platform, one cloud environment, one product
roadmap and one future. As a result, we reduced
technology costs, and increased research and
development and innovation activities.
We right-sized our team and recognised the need
for key leaders with direct experience in scaling
early-stage ventures like Identitii. As a result, we
hired a new CTO, CFO and Head of Operations,
who have all had tremendous impacts since
joining.
We sunsetted the DART product as part of the
One Platform Strategy, exiting the contract with
HSBC Hong Kong. As a result, not only did we
lower operating costs, but we created significant
capacity that was reinvested towards developing
our product roadmap.
Growing global opportunity ahead
Identitii is pursuing a global opportunity to help the
financial services
industry collect and share
sensitive data. Today our platform is being used by
more than 160 teams around the world, helping our
customers reduce the operational, technical, and
regulatory burden of managing sensitive data, to
accelerate cross border payments, manage the
exchange of customer data, reduce manual
exceptions, and streamline and automate
regulatory
include
traditional institutions like HSBC, Mastercard and
Rabobank, and newer fintechs like Novatti and
Monoova. Incredibly, traditional institutions and
newer fintech’s still use forms of communication
which lack the secure data requirements needed to
reporting. Our customers
protect personal information, relying on people,
emails and spreadsheets, to collect and share
sensitive data both within and between
organisations.
Steady forward commercial progress
The Company has been steadily building brand
recognition within the financial services industry in
Australia and other key global markets and is well-
positioned for future commercial success. Our
renewed focus this year on faster-moving fintech
companies and partnerships that will enable rapid
scale is yet to provide boosts to revenue, but we
have seen increases in the total number of sales
pipeline opportunities, and are simultaneously
progressing existing prospects with a growing
number of new prospects. Breaking new ground
and being the first-to-market with a technology
solution to a manual problem, as Identitii is, takes
time and requires consistent forward momentum.
Early success is very difficult to come by, but the
disparate nature of new contracts does not mean
we are pursuing the wrong opportunity. We are
right to continue.
Continued product & technology development
Throughout the year, led by our new CTO, the team
has been hard at work developing our product and
our research and development initiatives, in the
wake of our One Platform strategy. Our team has
been exploring new technologies and solutions that
have not only bolstered our core offerings but have
opened up new avenues for problem solving. We
this year,
saw significant product progress
launching new SMR reporting capability ahead of
looming Tranche 2 reforms, being among the first
to submit ISO 20022 reports to AUSTRAC,
extending our automated FinCrime Reporting data
platform into New Zealand, and growing our Patent
Portfolio with a newly awarded patent in Singapore.
These developments will all contribute to our ability
to attract and win new business, ensuring that
investments in innovation will continue to be a
cornerstone of our long-term strategy.
Our investment in Payble

Summarising the year
Operating an early-stage technology company in
the current economic environment is a challenging
task and operating a public one even more so. By
many measures our Company is in its strongest
position since first listing in late 2018. Activity on
our platform is growing, we implemented several
material reductions in operating costs that will fully
materialise in FY24, the number of prospective
customers engaged with us is the highest it has
ever been, and our pipeline of opportunities is
growing faster than ever. As we look to the future,
we are increasingly optimistic. We believe our
unwavering commitment to continuous innovation,
financial prudence, and customer needs will be key
drivers of our success. The momentum we've
quietly built over the past year positions us well for
many years of growth.
Thank you for your continued support of the Board,
the Executive Staff and our Team.
Regards,
John Rayment

Principal activities
Identitii is a regulatory technology (RegTech) company that helps financial services businesses and other regulated entities
gain visibility into, and control over, the data needed to meet financial crime reporting obligations both in Australia and
around the world.
The Company’s cloud platform was built to make reporting to regulators, including AUSTRAC in Australia, easy and
automated, and to give Boards and management teams complete confidence in their compliance. It is also helping its
customers build trust, credibility and confidence within the industry and with regulators as they work together to combat
increasing financial crime.
The strategic highlights for the year ended 30 June 2023 are noted below.
Review of operations
During the year ended 30 June 2023, the Group achieved the following:
• On 29 August 2022, Identitii was granted approval of a Singapore Patent for the same invention as they currently
hold a U.S. Patent for.
• On 27 October 2022, the Company announced a 1 for 2 Non-Renounceable Rights Issue to raise up to $4 million,
with the rights issue shares to be issued at $0.04 per share, together with 1 free attaching option for every 2 shares
applied for and issued. The options are exercisable at $0.08 with a two-year expiry.
• On 8 December 2022, the Company launched its automated Financial Crime reporting to New Zealand’s Financial
Intelligence Unit (Z FIU) via its anti-money laundering and counter terrorism financing (AML/CTF) reporting platform.
• On 14 December 2022, the Company announced that it has agreed to end its agreement with HSBC Hong Kong,
under which it provides support for HSBC’s Digital Accounts Receivables Tool (HSBC DART), which was built on
Identitii technology. Ending this agreement resulted in cost savings for the Group.
• On 28 December 2022, the Company closed its Non-Renounceable Rights Issue on 20 December 2022, and raised
$416,868 before costs, with a shortfall balance of $3,607,320. On 29 December 2022, 10,421,706 shares were issued,
along with 5,210,853 options.

Identitii Limited
Annual Report FY23
Directors Report

new Chief Financial Officer - Rebecca Shooter-Dodd.
• On 15 March 2023, the Company announced that it has signed a new software license agreement with leading
Australian B2B payments provider Monoova Global Payments Pty Ltd. Monoova will use Identitii’s cloud-hosted
reporting platform to help further automate and improve auditability of their reporting obligations to AUSTRAC.
• On 4 April 2023, the Company announced that it is among the first to successfully report ISO 20022 transactions to
AUSTRAC 2.0, the regulator’s updated reporting system designed specifically to accept the new data rich ISO 20022
format.
• On 20 June 2023, the Company announced that it has made it easier for financial services businesses to submit
Suspicious Matter Reports (SMR) to AUSTRAC via its regulatory reporting platform, ahead of the proposed Tranche
2 reforms to the Australian AML/CTF Act.
Review of financial conditions
The Group reported revenue from contracts with customers of $1,363,063 for the year ended 30 June 2023 (30 June 2022:
$1,457,627), a decrease of 6% from the prior year. The Group reported a net loss after tax of $5,997,504 for the year
ended 30 June 2023 (30 June 2022: $4,997,031) which was substantially driven by salary and employee benefit expenses
and expenditure on research and development (R&D) related activities.
The Group had a positive net current asset balance of $855,569 (30 June 2022: $5,635,074) and a positive overall net
asset balance of $2,324,906 (30 June 2022: $7,432,594) at 30 June 2023.
The Group had $1,287,005 of cash and cash equivalents on hand at 30 June 2023 (30 June 2022: $5,074,133) and
reported a net cash outflow from operating activities of $5,203,726 during the year ended 30 June 2023 (30 June 2022:
$6,014,695).
Significant changes in the state of affairs
In the opinion of the Directors there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group that occurred during
the year ended 30 June 2023.
Dividends
No dividends were declared or paid by the Company during the financial year ended 30 June 2023 (30 June 2022: Nil).
Events subsequent to reporting date
On 5 September 2023, the Company announced that its Rights Issue closed on 30 August 2023, and raised $1,338,160
before costs, with a shortfall balance of $789,735. The Rights Issue was a pro-rata non-renounceable entitlement issue to
eligible shareholders of one (1) New Share for every one (1) Existing Share held by eligible shareholders on the Record
Date, at an issue price of $0.01 per New Share. 133,816,609 New Shares were issued and allotted on 5 September 2023.
On 21 September 2023, the Company announced that it had successfully completed the Shortfall Offer, raising a further
$789,735 via the issue of shortfall shares at the issue price of $0.01 per Share, bringing the total capital raised under the
Rights Issue to $2,127,895 before costs.
On 28 September 2023, the Company announced $1.0M in annualised cost savings, to further extend its cash runway.
The operational changes to realise $1.0M in annualised cost savings have all been put into effect, and the Company
expects to see the resulting decreases in cash outflows materialise in the coming quarters. Savings have been realised in
cloud infrastructure (consolidating multiple suppliers), legal costs (finalising patent strategy work), operational costs (office
downsizing and licence cancellations) and headcount (including some reallocations to offshore roles). Additionally, all three
Non-Executive Directors on our Board have elected to reduce the cash component of their remuneration by 25%,
substituting the reduced cash component for ordinary shares in the Company, subject to shareholder approval.
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
Directors Report
The Group will continue to develop the Identitii platform whilst continuing to serve existing customers, sign new customers
and grow its pipeline of partners. This will require further investment in product and business development and marketing.

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.

the environment.

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.

Audited Remuneration Report
Directors Report
The Directors present the Remuneration Report (the Report) for the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) for the year
ended 30 June 2023. 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.

Directors Report
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.

Annual Report FY23
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Significant Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are set out either in
the respective notes or below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise
stated. The financial statements are for the Group including Identitii Limited and its subsidiary.
Basis of preparation
These general-purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and
Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”). The financial statements also comply with
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The
financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Group which is a for-profit entity for financial
reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.
Historical cost convention
The consolidated financial statements, except for the cash flow information, have been prepared on an accruals basis and
are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets,
financial assets, and financial liabilities.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also
requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The areas
involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the
financial statements, are disclosed throughout the financial statements.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group as at the end of the reporting period.
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee
and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee
if and only if the Group has:
• Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the
investee)
• Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
•
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant
facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
•
• Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights
•
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes
to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over
the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of a
subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive
income from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the
Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When
necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with
the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-Group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses, and cash flows relating to
transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Identitii Limited
Annual Report FY23
Going concern
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal
business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As disclosed in the financial statements, the Group incurred a loss for the year ended 30 June 2023 of $5,997,504
(30 June 2022: $4,997,031) and total cash outflows from operating activities of $5,203,726 (30 June 2022: $6,014,695).
As at that date, the Group had net current assets of $855,569 (30 June 2022: $5,635,074) and net assets of $2,324,906
(30 June 2022: $7,432,594). As such the Group needs to raise additional capital to support its operating activities.
These factors indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Group will continue as a
going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business
and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
The Directors believe there are reasonable grounds that the Group 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 $1,287,005 in cash and cash equivalents as at the balance date;
The Group successfully raised $980,000 in debt funding during the year and is evaluating plans to secure additional
debt funding later in the calendar year;
The Group successfully raised equity funding of $378,278 during the financial year;
•
• On 5 September 2023, the Group announced that its Rights Issue closed on 30 August 2023, and raised $1,338,160
before costs, with a shortfall balance of $789,735. The Rights Issue was a pro-rata non-renounceable entitlement
issue to eligible shareholders of one (1) New Share for every one (1) Existing Share held by eligible shareholders on
the Record Date, at an issue price of $0.01 per New Share. 133,816,609 New Shares were issued and allotted on 5
September 2023, and the Company expects the shortfall to be placed shortly.
• On 21 September 2023, the Company announced that it had successfully completed the Shortfall Offer, raising a
further $789,735 via the issue of shortfall shares at the issue price of $0.01 per Share, bringing the total capital raised
under the Rights Issue to $2,127,895 before costs.
• On 28 September 2023, the Company announced $1.0M in annualised cost savings, to further extend its cash runway.
•
The Group has the ability to further scale back a significant portion of its expenditure if required; and
Accordingly, the Directors believe that the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to
adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial report.
The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the amounts or classification of recorded assets or
liabilities that might be necessary if the Group does not continue as a going concern.
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.
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.
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 current when it is expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle; it is
held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realized 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.
27
Identitii Limited
Annual Report FY23
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
A liability is current when it is expected to be settled in 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.
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.
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.
New, revised or amended accounting standards adopted
The Group has retrospectively adopted, as at the date of incorporation, all of the new, revised or amended Accounting
Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the International
Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the year
commencing 1 July 2022. There was no material impact on the group’s financial statements on the adoption of these
Standards and Interpretations.
Revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory for the year ended 30 June 2023
have not been early adopted.
2. Revenue
The Group generates revenue primarily from the licensing of software and the provision of professional and maintenance

2. Revenue (continued)
Accounting Policy - Revenue
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
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.
The Group is currently recognising revenue under these enterprise level and SaaS 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 Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations
Licence fees
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.
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.
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 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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
2. Revenue (continued)
Accounting Policy - Revenue (continued)
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. 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.
Accounting policy - 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.
Accounting policy - 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.

Accounting Policy - Income Tax Expense
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.
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.
32
Identitii Limited
Annual Report FY23
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
3.
Income tax expense (continued)
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.

7. Trade and other receivables (continued)
Accounting Policy - 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 provision for impairment. Trade receivables generally have 30-to-45-day payment terms.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis in accordance with the expected credit loss (“ECL”)
model. Credit losses are measured at the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e., the difference between the cash flows
due to the Group 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 financial asset.
The ECL assessment completed by the Group as at 30 June 2023 has resulted in an immaterial credit loss and no
impairment allowance has been recognised by the Group (30 June 2022: $Nil).
Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The provision for impairment of receivables and the ECL calculation assessment requires a degree of estimation and
judgment. The level of provision is assessed by considering the recent sales experience, the ageing of receivables,
historical collection rates and specific knowledge of the individual debtor’s financial position.

Amounts not expected to be settled within the next 12 months
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.
Accounting Policy - Employee Provisions
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-term cash bonus or profit-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.
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.

14.Share based payment arrangements (continued)
Accounting Policy - Share-based payments
Equity Incentive Plan (EIP)
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.
If the employee’s employment terminates before the share options have vested, the share option will 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.
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.
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made.
An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increase the total fair
value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.
The share-based payment reserve in equity is transferred to retained earnings when the unexercised option expires.
Critical accounting judgements, estimates and adjustments
The Company 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 using the Black Scholes option pricing
model, using the assumptions noted above.
15. Non-controlling interest
The below table summarises the information relating to each of the Group’s subsidiaries that have a material non-
controlling interest (NCI), after intra-group eliminations.
On 15 November 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in Payble further decreased from 60.1% to 44.2% and it was

17. 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:
Decrease in impairment loss on trade receivables and contract
assets arising from contracts with customers
Trade receivables and contract assets
30 June 2023
$
30 June 2022
$
(749)
(1,825)
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.
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. To date no customer balances have been written off or
credit impaired at the reporting date.
For the year ending 30 June 2023, an ECL of nil (2022: Nil) has been assessed as the closing trade receivables
balance of $17,046 is considered immaterial.

Cash and cash equivalents and other receivables
The Group held cash and cash equivalents of $1,287,005 at 30 June 2023 (30 June 2022: $5,074,133). 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 $194,662 at 30 June 2023 (30 June 2022: $248,088). 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.
Movements in the allowance for impairment in respect of trade receivables, contract assets and other
financial assets
The movement in the allowance for impairment in respect of trade receivables, contract assets and other financial
assets during the year was as follows.

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 cash
and trade receivables as some customers are invoiced in United States Dollars (USD). The Group reduces this foreign
currency risk by using the USD from customer sales to pay expenses that are incurred in USD. Other foreign currency
risk is not material at present.

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

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
22. Investment in associates (continued)
Accounting Policy - Associates
Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. Investments in
associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the share of the profits or losses of the
associate is recognised in profit or loss and the share of the movements in equity is recognised in other comprehensive
income. Investments in associates are carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post-acquisition changes
in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to the associate is included in the carrying amount of
the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. Dividends received or receivable from
associates reduce the carrying amount of the investment.
When the Group's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any unsecured
long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments
on behalf of the associate.
The Group discontinues the use of the equity method upon the loss of significant influence over the associate and
recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the associate's carrying amount, fair value of
the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.
23. Parent entity disclosures

24. Fair value measurements
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities is a reasonable approximation of fair value.
25. Subsequent events
On 5 September 2023, the Company announced that its Rights Issue closed on 30 August 2023, and raised $1,338,160
before costs, with a shortfall balance of $789,735. The Rights Issue was a pro-rata non-renounceable entitlement issue to
eligible shareholders of one (1) New Share for every one (1) Existing Share held by eligible shareholders on the Record
Date, at an issue price of $0.01 per New Share. 133,816,609 New Shares were issued and allotted on 5 September 2023,
and the Company expects the shortfall to be placed shortly.
On 21 September 2023, the Company announced that it had successfully completed the Shortfall Offer, raising a further
$789,735 via the issue of shortfall shares at the issue price of $0.01 per Share, bringing the total capital raised under the
Rights Issue to $2,127,895 before costs.
On 28 September 2023, the Company announced $1.0M in annualised cost savings, to further extend its cash runway.
The operational changes to realise $1.0M in annualised cost savings have all been put into effect, and the Company
expects to see the resulting decreases in cash outflows materialise in the coming quarters. Savings have been realised in
cloud infrastructure (consolidating multiple suppliers), legal costs (finalising patent strategy work), operational costs (office
downsizing and licence cancellations) and headcount (including some reallocations to offshore roles). Additionally, all three
Non-Executive Directors on our Board have elected to reduce the cash component of their remuneration by 25%,
substituting the reduced cash component for ordinary shares in the Company, subject to shareholder approval.
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.

We have audited the financial report of Identitii Limited (the Company) and its controlled entity (the Group), which
comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2023, the consolidated statement of profit
or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated
statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of
significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001,
including:
(i) giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2023 and of its financial
performance for the year then ended; and
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those
standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of
our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the
Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional 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 confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to
the directors of the Group, would be on the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's
report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1 of the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $5,997,504
during the year ended 30 June 2023. As stated in Note 1, these events or conditions, along with other matters as
set forth in Note 1, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability
to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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

As of 30 June 2023, the Company’s investment in
Payble was 32.8%.
We consider this to be a key risk due to the following
reasons:

The variability of the Company’s interest for the
period as a result of conversion of the loan and
x15venture’s further investment.
Accounting for investments in associates is
non-routine and can be technically complex in

Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2023 but does not include the financial report and the
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 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
