Entering FY23, our signed contract backlog is strong (at >$20m at the time of writing), and our balance sheet is healthy. Our market in the North American electric utility and communications sector is stronger than ever in terms of expected ongoing demand for productivity solutions like ours. Our focus on building a recurring (subscription) and re-ocurring (transactional) business model along with continued development of product capability, translates to high visibility into higher-quality revenue Despite current valuation headwinds in the public capital markets for technology companies, we are optimistic about our growth and value creation prospects for FY23 and beyond. Financial Performance Highlights We were pleased to hit all key growth targets through the period. Highlights include: + FY22 revenue of ~$16m (+71% vs. PCP). + 2H FY22 revenue of ~$10.3m (+108% vs. PCP) + FY22 Subscription and Transaction revenue of ~$12.m (+73% vs. PCP). ~75% of IKE’s revenue in FY22 came from these recurring and re-occurring sources. + FY22 signed contracts of ~$26m (+122% vs. PCP). + FY22 gross margin of ~$9.9m (PCP of $5.9m), with FY22 gross margin percentage of 62% (PCP of 64%). + FY22 EBITDA loss of ~$5.3m (PCP -$5.5m) + FY22 Net Loss of ~$7.9m (PCP -$7.5m) + 2H FY22 Net Loss of ~$1.7m (PCP -$5.0m) + Total cash and receivables 31 March 2022 of ~$29.4m, comprised of $24.4m cash and $5m receivables. This is approximately the same total position as of December 2021. No debt. Quarterly signed contracts and relationship to timing for recognized revenue ($NZ$) Takeaways + This chart shows the approximate nine- month correlation between the timing of signed contracts and subsequent timing to recognized revenue levels. The reason for this timing lag is that subscription and transaction contracts are recognized and delivered over time (normally 12 months), based on the usage of IKE products. 4 2022 ikeGPS Annual Report 5 2022 ikeGPS Annual Report Operating Scale From an operating perspective, the broader IKE team grew from approximately 50 to 85 full time employees. IKE expects that its revenue and margins will continue grow faster than operating expenses, however this growth of outside plant experts across the team is important such that IKE can optimally deliver account management, support, and deployment into a customer base that includes some of the largest infrastructure companies in North America. Leadership Team Development From a leadership team perspective, the FY22 period saw a deepening of the leadership group with appointments including Lydia Siloka as Head of People, Jareth Rossing as Head of Engineering and CIO, Jonathan Brigham as Director of Operations, and Stephen Fairbrother promoted to Chief Financial Officer. Board Development From a Board perspective, the FY22 period saw the appointment of Eileen Healy as non-executive director. Eileen is based in San Francisco and joins IKE with considerable industry experience as the founder of two high- growth technology companies that served tier-1 infrastructure companies across the US electric utility and communications market. The period also saw Rick Christie, chairman of IKE since its NZX listing, stand down from the role and replaced by LA-based Alex Knowles. Rick continues as a non- executive director however IKE’s leadership team and the Board would like to again thank Rick for his considerable work and contribution to the company as Chair since its earliest days. Communications & Utility segment Takeaways + + IKE has delivered 48% CAGR of recurring subscription and reoccurring transaction revenues (shown by the Green and Blue segments in this chart). IKE’s revenue mix has continued to shift positively over the past four years because of the investment into extending its software products. + This is an important trend in terms of increased revenue quality that will underpin predictable growth as IKE continues to execute on its solution and Pole OS™ strategy. Customer and market commentary + IKE targets North America’s ~3,000 electric utilities, ~200 communications companies, and their more than 2,000 engineering service providers. Once a customer, our objective is to embed and expand the use of its software inside of these large enterprise and infrastructure accounts. + We have approximately ~350 accounts today, or ~5% of the total number of potential customers in North America, pointing to the large, long-term growth opportunity and TAM. + Importantly, our products are relevant to several unglamorous but large macro-market tailwinds, including: + More than US$350B is forecasted to be invested into fiber and 5G infrastructure over the next five-plus years by fiber and communications companies. + An additional US$60B of investment into rural broadband network development as part of the Biden administration’s $1 trillion infrastructure bill. + More than 3,000 electric utilities are needing to address the challenges of network hardening, development, and maintenance over the coming ten-plus years. Further pressures on electric utilities include the regulatory requirement to allow communications companies to attach their fiber and 5G networks onto their power assets and an aging workforce that is driving a need to introduce technology to replace people. + Our products are designed to deliver network engineering outcomes that are faster, safer, and to a higher quality (digitized) data standard. + Macro risks do continue to be present, in particular the long-tail impacts of COVID-19 on global supply chains. For IKE, this continues to present ongoing challenges to reliably source and produce its IKE field tools in the face of increasing demand. 6 7 2022 ikeGPS Annual Report2022 ikeGPS Annual Report Conclusion Pleasingly, the momentum outlined above has continued into Q1 of FY23. As referenced, our balance sheet is strong. In Q4 of FY22, we operated on a neutral basis maintaining a cash & receivables position of ~$29m, demonstrating the operating leverage in the business as revenue scales without the requirement for significant increases in our cost base. Our infrastructure-oriented customer base remains sticky. We believe the next 10 to 20 years will see increasing levels of investment into distribution network development across North America, which is the engineering work where IKE delivers productivity outcomes. We seek to build a decades-long relationships with these defensive customers. We are still very early in terms of market penetration and are excited about the potential to create value for our customers and shareholders in the years ahead. Thank you for your support. Sincerely, Alex Knowles Chair and Non-Executive Director Glenn Milnes CEO & Managing Director Outlook The level of signed contracts in the year to March 2022 of ~$26m provides the foundation for strong potential revenue growth in FY23. Our sales pipeline has also continued to develop robustly. This pipeline consists of opportunities to expand within existing customer accounts, noting the majority of IKE’s FY22 revenue performance came from growing existing customers and from opportunities to win new enterprise accounts. Our focus for FY23 continues on four core themes: + The delivery of signed contracts in the backlog. IKE expects ~$15-17m of the signed contract backlog in place today to be recognized in the FY23 period, noting that these signed contracts are based on our customers delivering network projects and that the timing of the associated revenue depends on this customer execution. + In addition to the delivery of the backlog above, to close and recognize revenue in FY23 from new contracts. + To continue to build out sales and delivery capability. IKE serves some of the largest infrastructure and engineering groups in North America, and it is important to have the right scale of people and processes to optimize customer experience, that in turn underpins account growth and long-term customer relationships. + To continue to enhance its three software products via software engineering and user experience enhancements. This product development will focus on automation and analytics capability so as to deliver more productivity & value to customers and to increase ARPU. 8 9 2022 ikeGPS Annual Report2022 ikeGPS Annual Report Growth of our brand We're IKE, the PoleOS™ Company Brand, Product, and Technology Overview "We're IKE, The PoleOS™ Company" is our tagline which symbolizes our goal to be the underlying platform standard in the North American market to enable telecommunications, electric utilities, and engineering service companies as it relates to their pole & outside plant infrastructure projects.

Employee remuneration principles The Group uses market data to determine competitive salary and total remuneration levels for all staff. The Group makes allowance for individual performance, scarcity of skills, internal relativities, and specific business needs. The Group is operating in a growth industry and has a skilled and mobile workforce. All employees have fixed remuneration. Selected employees have the potential to earn a Short Term Incentive (STI) and Long Term incentive (LTI). Glenn Milnes’s employment agreement for his role as CEO commenced in July 2010.

The remaining employee stock options have vesting dates from 2020 to 2026. Vesting at each date is dependent on him remaining an employee at the applicable vesting date. Remuneration of employees The Group aims to have a remuneration framework and policies to attract and retain talented and motivated people. Ethical Behaviour Code of conduct The Group has a Code of Ethics, setting out the ethical and behavioural standards expected of Directors and staff. Directors and staff are also expected to uphold the Group's values. Whistleblowing The Group Code of Ethics includes specific direction on action to be taken by a person who suspects a breach of the Code. Avoiding conflicts of interest The Board is updated at each meeting on changes in Directors’ interests and any potential conflicts. The register records relevant transactions and our disclosures of interests. A current listing of Directors’ interests is found on page 36. Trading in securities The Groups Directors are restricted from trading in the Group's shares under New Zealand law and by the Group's Security Trading Policy. This policy applies to both Directors and employees. The policy details “blackout periods” where trading is forbidden, as well as a process for authorization at other times. Our Director's current shareholdings are set out on page 37. Committees The Board committees review and consider in detail the policies and strategies developed by management. They examine proposals and make recommendations to the Board. They don’t take action or make decisions on behalf of the Board unless specifically mandated to do so. During the FY22 year, the Group’s standing Board committees were the: + Audit & risk management committee + Nominations and Remuneration committee 30 31 2022 ikeGPS Annual Report2022 ikeGPS Annual Report Audit & Risk Management (ARC) committee: Fred Lax (chair), Mark Ratcliffe, Glenn Milnes The committee members are independent Directors with the exception of Glenn Milnes (executive director). Due to the diversity of the business operations, it is deemed appropriate that Glenn Milnes is a member of the ARC. In accordance with the NZX Code, the Audit & Risk Management Committee is chaired by an Independent Director, Fred Lax, who is not the Chair of the Board. Fred has extensive governance experience and has been ARC Chair with other public companies. The committee’s Charter is set out on the investor relations website. The committee met seven times in the year to 31 March 2022. Management attends meetings only at the committee's invitation, and at least annually, the committee meets with the external auditors with management excluded. Reporting and disclosure Financial reporting The Board is responsible for ensuring the integrity of the Group’s reporting to shareholders, including for financial statements that comply with generally accepted accounting practices. The Board’s ARC oversees the quality, reliability, and accuracy of the financial statements and related documents (the ARC role is described fully in its Charter). In doing so, the committee makes inquiries of management and external auditors (including requiring management representations) so that the committee can be satisfied as to the validity and accuracy of all aspects of the Group’s financial reporting. The CEO and CFO certify to the Board that the integrity of the financial statements is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control. Nominations and Remuneration committee: Non-financial reporting Eileen Healy (chair), Mark Ratcliffe, Fred Lax The committee members are independent Directors. The committee met on four occasions in the year to 31 March 2022. This committee has oversight of matters of recruitment, retention, and remuneration. Other committee matters The Board will occasionally appoint a committee of Directors to consider or approve a specific proposal or action if the timing of meetings or availability of Directors means the matter cannot be considered by the full Board. Their deliberations and decisions are reported back to the Board not later than the next meeting following. Takeover protocol The Board has decided not to establish a takeover committee or protocols documenting the procedure to be followed in the event it receives a takeover offer. The Board has determined that due to the current size and make-up of the Board, it is sufficiently independent and can manage a takeover process and any additional issues effectively as a whole Board, should it arise. The Group has not adopted a formal environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting framework at this time. The Group’s assessment of exposure to non-financial risks, including economic, environmental, and social sustainability risks, is incorporated into the Comprehensive and Key Risk assessments that we refer to under risk management. The Group is predominantly an office- based software company with minimal impact on non-financial risks. Disclosure to the market The Group has a written disclosure policy – the Continuous Disclosure Policy, found on the investor relations site. It sets out requirements for full and timely disclosure to the market of material issues so all stakeholders have equal access to information. The Board reviews and approves material announcements. The Board specifically consider with management at each Board meeting whether there are any issues which might require disclosure to the market under the NZX and ASX continuous disclosure requirements. Information for investors Non-audit work The Audit Independence Policy sets out restrictions on non-audit work that the auditor can perform. Shareholder rights and relations The Group’s financial reports and corporate governance documentation is available on the group’s website https://ikegps.com/investors/. The Group keeps shareholders informed through periodic reporting to NZX and ASX and through its continuous disclosure. The Group provides briefings and presentations to media and analysts (which are made immediately available on the investor relations website) and communicates with shareholders through periodic reports, annual shareholder meetings, as well as through a range of releases to media on matters which the company believes will interest shareholders and members. The Group encourages shareholders to refer to the investor relations website and to receive annual and half- year reports electronically. Still, hard copies of the reports can readily be obtained from the share registrar, Link Market Services Limited. The Group takes care to write all shareholder communications in a clear and straightforward way and to limit the use of jargon. The Group’s annual meeting will be held virtually on Thursday, 29 September 2022. A notice of the meeting and proxy form will be circulated to shareholders closer to the time. The external auditors, Grant Thornton, will respond to any questions submitted prior to the meeting. Risk management The Group has an enterprise risk management framework in place to identify, quantify and monitor risks. That framework categorizes the enterprise risks and sets out specific actions to effectively manage each risk. Management reviews the enterprise risk register. The Group doesn’t have an internal audit function. Health and Safety Risk The Group values our people's health, safety, and wellness, and we believe that everyone should be able to work in an environment where risks are managed and controlled. Management has adopted health, safety, and wellness measures to address and mitigate identified risks. The Group is a relatively low-risk office-based business. However, we do have employees performing training and, in some instances, fieldwork for customers. The Board is conscious of these risks to employees and have viewed the actions currently in place to mitigate these. The frequency of incidents has been very low, so the Board has not required LTIFR reporting to date. Auditors The Group has an external Auditor Policy that requires the external auditor to be independent and to be seen as independent. The Board is satisfied that there is no relationship between the auditor and the Group or any related person at this time that could compromise the auditor’s independence. The Board also obtained confirmation of independence formally from the auditor. To ensure full and frank dialogue amongst the ARC and the auditors, the auditor’s senior representatives meet separately with the ARC (without management present) at least once a year. 32 33 2022 ikeGPS Annual Report2022 ikeGPS Annual Report Disclosures Audit Fees The amounts payable to Grant Thornton as auditor of the Group are as set out in Note 6 to the financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2022 and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) issued by the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs (NZ)) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 International Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (including International Independence Standards) (New Zealand) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interests in, the Group. Other matter The consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2021 were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements on 29 June 2021. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Description of the key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Impairment assessment and the carrying value of assets As disclosed in Note 3, Significant accounting policies, the Group has undertaken an assessment of the carrying value of its assets including intangible assets on an annual basis in accordance with NZ IAS 36 Impairment of Assets. The continued losses from ike products and services and identified cash generating units (CGUs) are indicators of impairment. In addition, certain CGU’s hold intangible assets under development that are not yet ready for use, and accordingly these CGU’s are also assessed for impairment. The impairment assessments were a key audit matter due to the materiality of the assets, the risk of impairment, and the significant level of judgement applied in estimating future cash flows and other key assumptions in determining the recoverable amount of a CGU. To determine whether the carrying value of assets including intangibles is reasonable, management performed an impairment assessment on a value-in-use (VIU) basis for its four CGUs: • ike core platform, development assets, property, plant and equipment, leased assets and working capital (CGU1). • Spike inventory, development assets and Software Development Kit (CGU2). • Pole Forman software, customer contracts and relationships and training materials (CGU3); and • Visual Globe software, customer relationships and goodwill (CGU4). These assessments were based on discounted cashflow models using the Board approved budget for the year ending 31 March 2023 and then extrapolating cash flows for subsequent years. The Board approved budgets have been adjusted to meet the requirements of NZ IAS 36 Impairment of Assets. Key assumptions for CGU1 include: We performed procedures to evaluate and challenge the Group’s determination of CGUs. This included reviewing internal management reporting to assess the level at which the Group monitors performance, comparing CGUs to our knowledge of the Group’s operations and reporting systems, and reconciling assets allocated to CGUs to accounting records. We obtained management’s impairment assessments and tested the mathematical accuracy of the VIU calculations. We considered and challenged key assumptions and used our internal valuation experts to assess the valuation methodology’s compliance with NZ IAS 36, and the appropriateness of the post-tax discount rates and terminal growth rates, based on their experience and external evidence. We compared the forecast cash flows used for the year ending 31 March 2023 to the Board approved business plan: • • • • For CGU1, we also compared historical performance against budget, investigated material differences and considered the impact on future cash flow forecasts. For CGU2, we made specific considerations of historic sales volumes over the previous three years and management plans for the Spike product line. For CGU3, we obtained management’s assessment of impairment and we assessed whether this assessment was consistent with our understanding of the operations and environment of the business and checked for the existence of any external sources of information. We also evaluated whether intangible assets that were not ready for use should be part of the CGU and impairment tested accordingly. For CGU4, we considered the financial performance of the CGU since acquisition to determine whether this was consistent with forecast performance assessed at acquisition date. We also reviewed the contingent consideration regarding CGU4 due to the vendor based on forecast revenue milestones that align to projections used in the VIU calculations for CGU4. • Average forecast annual revenue growth of 31%. We concur with management’s assessment that: • A growth rate of 2% to determine the terminal value; and • A pre-tax discount rate of 16.4%. Key assumptions for CGU2 include: • Forecasted annual growth of 5% year-on-year in sales volumes • A remaining useful life of five years with no terminal value; and • • The recoverable amounts of CGU1, CGU3 and CGU 4 are in excess of their carrying values; and The carrying value of CGU2 is impaired by $0.1 million based on management’s VIU calculations. We audited the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements to ensure they are compliant with the requirements of the relevant accounting standards. • A pre-tax discount rate of 13.5%. Key assumptions for CGU3 include: • Average forecast annual revenue growth of 10% • A growth rate of 2% to determine the terminal value; and • A pre-tax discount rate of 14.4%. Key assumptions for CGU4 include: • FY23 growth of 433%; • Average annual revenue growth of 75% over the following four years; • A growth rate of 2% to determine the terminal value; and • A pre-tax discount rate of 33.6%. Based on management’s assessments, an impairment of $0.1 million was recognised in respect to CGU2 and attributed to development assets. Refer to notes 3 and 12 in the consolidated financial statements for disclosures on the impairment assessment of the carrying value of assets. Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report thereon The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report. Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of audit opinion or assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. Directors’ responsibilities for the Consolidated Financial Statements The Directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are 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 ISAs (NZ) 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 these consolidated financial statements. A further description of the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the External Reporting Board’s website at: https://www.xrb.govt.nz/standards/assurance-standards/auditing-standards/auditors-responsibilities/audit-report-1/ Restriction on use of our report This report is made solely to the Company’s shareholders, as a body. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company’s shareholders, as a body those matters which we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company’s shareholders, as a body, for our audit work, for this report or for the opinion we have formed.

Reporting Entity ikeGPS Group Limited is a limited liability company domiciled and incorporated in New Zealand, registered under the Companies Act 1993 and listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange (‘NZX’) and Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’). It is an FMC reporting entity for the purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 comprise ikeGPS Group Limited and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘Group’), which comprises of ikeGPS Limited (‘ikeGPS Ltd’) and ikeGPS Incorporated (‘ikeGPS Inc’). The principal activity of the Group is that of design, sale, and delivery of a solution for the collection, analysis, and management of distribution assets for electric utilities and communications companies. The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 30 May 2022. 2. Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 1993 and Financial Reporting Act 2013. The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (‘NZ GAAP’). The Group is a for-profit entity for the purposes of complying with NZ GAAP. The consolidated financial statements comply with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (‘NZ IFRS’), other New Zealand accounting standards and authoritative notices that are applicable to entities that apply NZ IFRS. The consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities that have been measured in accordance with the specific relevant accounting policy. All amounts are shown exclusive of Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’) and other indirect taxes, except for trade receivables and trade payables that are stated inclusive of GST and Sales Taxes. Basis of consolidation Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured 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 can affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. New and amended standard and interpretations There are no new standards or interpretations material to the Group to be applied during the year. The Group does not anticipate adopting any standards prior to their effective date. There are no standards or amendments that have been issued but not yet effective that are expected to have a material impact on the Group. 3. Significant accounting policies Significant accounting policies, accounting estimates, and judgments that summarise the measurement basis used and are relevant to the understanding of the financial statements are provided throughout the accompanying notes. 49 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) The material judgments and estimates used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements are outlined below. Going concern The considered view of the Board Directors is that the going concern assumption is valid. This view has been reached after making due enquiry and having regard to the circumstances that the Directors consider will occur and those that are reasonably likely to affect the Group during the period of one year from the date these consolidated financial statements are approved. The Group recorded a net loss of NZ$7.9M for the year ended 31 March 2022 (2021: NZ$7.5M) and is expected to make further losses in the following financial year. Notwithstanding the above, the Group has prepared cash flow forecasts and sensitivity analyses that indicate cash-on-hand at year-end of $24M, combined with the net cash flows from operations, will enable the Group to continue operating as a going concern for at least twelve months from the date of authorising these consolidated financial statements. Impairment The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets were reviewed to determine whether there is any indication of impairment and if so tested, or tested regardless in the case of indefinite life intangible assets. The Directors identified the following cash generating units (CGUs): + CGU1 – IKE Core platform: intangible assets, property plant and equipment, capital work in progress, lease assets and working capital. + CGU2 – Spike: intangible assets and working capital. + CGU3 – IKE Structural: intangible assets and working capital. + CGU4 – IKE Insight: intangible assets and working capital. The Directors concluded that operating losses associated with CGU1 are an indicator of impairment, requiring an estimate of the CGU1 recoverable amount. An indicator of impairment also existed in CGU2 due to the lower- than-expected revenue, requiring an estimate of the CGU2 recoverable amount. CGU3 had no indicator of impairment, however, it was tested for impairment as the carrying value includes intangible assets currently in development and not yet ready for use. CGU4 was acquired in FY21 and included goodwill, which is tested annually for impairment. The details of each impairment test are outlined below: CGU1 was determined to have a carrying value of $6.4M. Future cash flows are forecasted based on a five-year business model for CGU1, which included an average revenue growth rate of 31% and operating expenses reflecting the FY23 business plan. The Group remains optimistic that the CGU1 core infrastructure market will continue to grow due to the significant multiyear investment programmes IKE’s customers have in place. A pre-tax discount rate of 16.4% was used to establish the recoverable amount on a value in use basis. To determine terminal value, the Group applied a 2% growth rate. The Directors have determined that no impairment is required as CGU1 continues to have a useful life, and the carrying value of CGU1 does not exceed its value in use. 50 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) Sensitivity analysis was performed on key assumptions for CGU1. An impairment would need to be considered if the growth rate was 28% lower than forecasted. CGU2 was determined to have a carrying value of $0.4M. Future cash flows are forecasted based on a five-year business model for CGU2 and a pre-tax discount rate of 13.5% was used to establish the recoverable amount on a value in use basis. Spike sales volumes have been impacted by COVID-19. Due to the difficulty forecasting larger enterprise sales for the Spike product, Directors have forecasted similar volumes to FY22 in FY23 with an average growth rate of 5% with no terminal value. The Directors have determined that an impairment of CGU2’s intangible assets of $100,000 is required as the carrying amount exceeded the value in use calculation. The impairment has been recorded against the Spike applications and SDK software and is included in the Research and Engineering line in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. CGU3 was determined to have a carrying value of $2.4M. CGU3 is a cashflow positive business segment and the requirement to test for impairment is due to the carrying value including internally developed intangible assets not yet available for use. The future cashflows are based on a five-year business model with an average growth rate of 10%. A pre-tax discount rate of 14.4% was used to establish the recoverable amount on a value in use basis. To determine terminal value, the Group applied a 2% growth rate. The Directors have determined that no impairment is required, as the carrying value of CGU3 does not exceed the recoverable amount on a value in use basis. Sensitivity analysis was performed on key assumptions for CGU3. An impairment would need to be considered if the growth rate was 38% lower than forecasted. CGU4 was determined to have a carrying value of $8.6M including goodwill. CGU4 is a very early-stage business segment and technology. IKE acquired this asset in January 2021 and during FY22 it generated $285k revenue. Future cash flows are forecasted based on a five-year business model for CGU4, with the FY23 business plan forecasting approximately 433% revenue growth, and with continuing strong growth rates in FY24 through FY27 at an average revenue growth rate of 75% and operating expenses reflecting the FY23 business plan. A pre-tax discount rate of 33.6% was used to establish the recoverable amount on a value in use basis. In determining the terminal value, the Group applied a 2% growth rate. The Directors have concluded that no impairment exists as CGU4 continues to have a useful life, and the carrying value does not exceed the value in use. Sensitivity analysis was performed on key assumptions for CGU4. An impairment would need to be considered if the growth rate was 10% lower than forecasted. The forecasted financial information for all CGUs is based on both historical experience and future expectations of operating performance and requires judgements to be made as to revenue growth, operating cost projections, and the market environment. It is sensitive to changes in each of the assumptions outlined above and actual results may be substantially different. Foreign currencies Items included in the consolidated financial statements of each of the Group’s subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment that the entity operates ("the functional currency"). 51 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) The functional currency of ikeGPS Ltd is New Zealand dollars. The functional currency of ikeGPS Inc is United States dollars. These consolidated financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars, which is the Group's presentational currency. The financial performance and position of ikeGPS Inc are translated into the presentation currency as follows: + + assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at reporting date; income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and + all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. Foreign currency transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are initially translated to functional currencies at the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the revaluation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss. Foreign currency translation reserve Exchange differences arising on translation of the foreign controlled entity are recognised in other comprehensive income as described in the foreign currency translation accounting policy and accumulated in a separate reserve within equity. If the net investment is to be disposed of, the cumulative amount would be reclassified to the consolidated statement of profit or loss. 4. Operating segments The CEO and the Board of Directors are assessed to be the Chief Operating Decision Makers (CODM) who regularly review financial information by product and gross margin. Reporting of overheads and the financial position is not undertaken at a level lower than the Group as a whole. Geographically, revenue is substantially generated in the United States of America (‘USA’). During FY22, the Group’s selling activities were focused and organised into two customer segments namely ‘Utility and Communications’ and ‘Other Business’. The Utility and Communications segment includes electrical utility companies, engineering service providers and sales to companies involved in the broadband fibre and cellular 5G roll out in the USA. Within the Utilities and Communications segment, the Group derives its revenue from: + + + selling an IKE device and corresponding annual subscription revenue, the IKE Platform solution where customers collect pole data on a leased IKE device and is either analysed by IKE according to an agreed statement of work or our customers use the software platform directly to process their pole data, transactional revenue by analysing pole data through an artificial intelligence and machine learning platform, and + pole loading software licenses and ongoing subscriptions for maintenance and support. 52 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 4.

Revenue is recognised when performance obligations have been satisfied, which is when control of the good or service associated with the performance obligation has been transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognised using a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Under NZ IFRS 15, revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The standard requires entities to exercise judgement, taking into consideration all the relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts with their customers. The five-step model for recognising revenue from contracts with customers requires consideration of the following steps: + + Identifying the contract Identifying the individual performance obligations within the contract + Determining the transaction price + Allocating the transaction price to distinct performance obligations + Recognising revenue 53 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 5. Revenue (continued) The table below provides the key judgements made on the application of NZ IFRS 15 across each revenue type with standardised terms and conditions. The Group has applied a practical expedient permitted by the standard; therefore, no significant financing component exists on deferred income. Utility and communications Revenue Type IKE device solution Description Key Judgements Outcome This is marketed to the utility and communications market as an all-in-one streamlined solution from data capture on the IKE device through to measurement and analysis on IKE Office - a cloud-based software platform. Management has determined the individual performance obligations of the contract. The total contractual price is allocated to each performance obligation using the stand-alone selling price. Management has determined that the IKE Device and subscription to IKE Office are distinct performance obligations of the IKE Solution. IKE has used the stand-alone selling price to allocate the contractual price. Subscription Customers are required to renew software subscriptions to allow continued access to the IKE Office online cloud functionality and the ability to customise and add new forms onto the IKE device. Determining when the performance obligation is fulfilled. Services Service revenue is made up of training, deployment, and replacement device revenue. Determining when the performance obligation is delivered. IKE Platform subscription revenue IKE Analyze IKE Structural pole loading software license Customers subscribe to the Platform to access both an IKE device and the functionality of IKE Office. This subscription enables customers to go out in the field and collect data via our online platform, where IKE or the customer can then perform analysis. Providing either an end-to-end technical solution for customers; IKE captures and analyses pole loading and make-ready engineering assessments, or customers capture pole data and transact on our platform. IKE sells a license of its pole loading software to customers. The subscription is in two parts; 1. The lease of the IKE device under NZ IFRS 16, 2. The subscription to IKE Office. This requires management to allocate the contract price to each performance obligation and determine when each performance obligation is fulfilled. Determining when each performance obligation is fulfilled. Management has determined the individual performance obligations of the contract. The total contractual price is allocated to each performance obligation using the stand-alone selling price. Customers use IKE Office to store and analyse data, customise, and add new forms. Along with integration capability these performance obligations can be described as ‘stand ready’ services which can be recognised over time. Revenue is recognised when the service is performed for the customer. For example, when the training is performed. Management has determined the contract price allocated to the lease and subscription portions consistent with the IKE Solution above. The performance obligations for the subscription portion of the IKE Platform are consistent with the above subscription treatment. Either the customer uploads or analyses the data in IKE Office, or IKE performs the analysis and completes requested reports per the scoping document. Once the activity is complete the Group will recognise the revenue. Management has determined that the perpetual license and first year of maintenance and support are separate performance obligations. IKE has used the stand-alone selling price to allocate the contractual price. Timing of revenue recognition Point in time The IKE device is recognised at the point in time when the device is sent to the customer. Over time IKE Office is recognised over the term of the subscription contract. Over time Subscription software recognised over time. Point in time Service revenue is recognised when the service is delivered. Point in time The lease of the IKE device is recognised at a point in time in accordance with NZ IFRS 16. Over time IKE Office is recognised over the term of the contract. Point in time Each transaction (completed record) is recognised when the performance obligation has been completed. Point in time The software license is recognised at the point in time when it is transferred. Over time The subscription is recognised over the first year. 54 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 5. Revenue (continued) Utility and communications (continued) IKE Structural pole loading maintenance and support subscription IKE Insight revenue Ongoing software support, maintenance, and software updates through an annual subscription. Determining when each performance obligation is fulfilled. IKE Insight revenue is derived from our IKE Insight artificial intelligence and machine learning platform processing pole data and delivering an agreed output to the customer. Determining when each performance obligation is fulfilled. Once customer data is collected it is uploaded onto the IKE Insight platform where analysis is completed based on the statement of work. Other business Customers use the maintenance and support to have the latest pole loading software and calculations available. These performance obligations occur at any time during the subscription period. The business is required to perform certain analysis as per the scoping document for each customer. Once the activity is complete, the Group will recognise the revenue. Over time Pole loading software maintenance and support subscriptions are recognised over time. Point in time Each transaction (completed record) is recognised when the performance obligation has been completed. Revenue Type Spike device Description Key Judgements Outcome The Group sells Spike devices through direct orders and online software. No major judgement required. N/A Timing of revenue recognition Point in time Recognised when the device is received by the customer. Consideration received prior to the service being provided is recognised as deferred income (and commission paid prior to the related contract performance is similarly deferred) on the consolidated statement of financial position. Other operating revenue includes consulting, device repairs, and training revenue. Revenue is recognised when the services are performed.

Engineering and research expenses included all the $1,459k of amortisation (2021: $947k) and $210k of depreciation on fixed assets (2021: $218k). Corporate costs included all the $254k of depreciation on leased assets under NZ IFRS 16 (2021: $286k). The balance of depreciation totalling to $531k (2021: $441k) is included in cost of sales. 56 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 6. Expenses (continued) 2. Relates to employee benefit expense, external contractors and consultants’ expenses that are directly attributable to the development of intangible assets and have been capitalised. 3. Relates to short-term and low-value leases and common area maintenance costs. 4. Selling and marketing expenses included promotional activities, travel, commissions, and other direct marketing costs. 5. Other operating expenses include corporate advisory, travel, engineering, facilities, and IT costs. Employee benefits Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and accumulating sick leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service, are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to reporting date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the consolidated statement of financial position. For defined contribution plans, the group pays contributions to publicly or privately administered pension insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual, or voluntary basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as an employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available. Share-based payment The Group operates an employee option scheme (equity-settled) under which employees receive the option to acquire shares at a predetermined exercise price. The options are measured at fair value at grant date using the Black Scholes model, with the fair value recognised as an employee benefit expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss with a corresponding increase in equity. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, being the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the share-based payment reserve with a corresponding change to the share-based compensation reserve in equity. In addition, the Group provides share-based payments to employees related to business combinations. The employees are required to perform service conditions and an expense is recognised over the service period. The rewards are considered equity-settled and recognised as an employee benefit expense and an increase to either share capital or the share-based compensation reserve. Finance income and expenses Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method. Finance expenses comprise interest expense on lease liabilities, recognised using the effective interest method. 57 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 7. Current and deferred tax The current income tax charge is calculated based on the tax laws enacted, or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted, or substantively enacted, by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised, or the deferred income tax liability is settled. Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Prima facie income tax expense on pre-tax accounting loss from operations reconciles to the income tax expense in the consolidated financial statements as follows: Net loss before income tax Prima facie income tax credit at 28% E ffect of different foreign income tax rates Non-deductible expenses Deferred tax on temporary differences Unrecorded tax losses Income tax expense Deferred tax opening balance Temporary differences E mployee entitlements and provisions Deferred research and development Leases Accruals Property, plant, and equipment Intangible assets Other Tax losses Deferred tax closing balance 2022 NZ$'000 (7, 857) (2, 200) 334 319 220 1, 327 - 2022 NZ$'000 - 41 58 2 34 (309) 24 9 141 - 2021 NZ$'000 (7, 493) (2, 098) 255 (162) (13) 2, 018 - 2021 NZ$'000 - 25 38 4 - (179) (114) 22 204 - Deferred tax assets on deductible temporary differences have been recognised to the extent taxable temporary differences exist in the same tax jurisdiction. No deferred tax asset is recognised in excess of the available taxable temporary differences, due to the uncertainty of when the unused tax losses can be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets related to deductible temporary differences total $473,190 (2021: $544,231). 58 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 7.

Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables arise when the Group provides cash, goods, and services directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after reporting date that are classified as non-current assets. The Group assesses impairment on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit loss associated with its financial assets is carried at amortised cost. The Group will assess if there has been a significant increase in credit risk by assessing market conditions, forward looking estimates, and previous financial history of counterparts. The Group applies the simplified approach permitted by NZ IFRS 9 for trade receivables, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The expected credit losses on these financial assets are assessed using a provision matrix, adjusted for factors that are specific to the receivables including customers’ historical credit loss experience, individual customer characteristics, customer market segment, and the economic environment. The Group writes off a financial asset when there is information indicating default or delinquency in payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy, liquidation or other financial reorganisation, and there is no real prospect of recovery.

The cost of inventory is based on a weighted average cost, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventory and bringing it to its existing location and condition. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour, and production overhead. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Inventory is treated as non-current if it is not expected to be sold within twelve months of reporting date.

Property, plant, and equipment Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: Office furniture and equipment Plant and equipment IKE rental devices 20% - 33% 20% - 50% 30% Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each reporting date. Gain and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount and are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. IKE rental devices increased in FY22, in line with the increase in ‘Platform as a Service’ revenue (see note 5).

Intangible assets Capitalised development costs The Group capitalises employee and consultants’ costs directly related to development of an intangible asset. The carrying values of capitalised development costs are annually evaluated for indicators of impairment. Management has reviewed the expected remaining useful life of these assets and concluded that they are appropriately amortised over periods of 4 to 10 years. Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software controlled by the Group are recognised as intangible assets when the following criteria are met: + it is technically feasible to complete the software product so that it will be available for use, + management intends to complete the software product and use or sell it, + + + + there is an ability to use or sell the software product, it can be demonstrated how the software product will generate probable future economic benefits, adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software product are available, and the expenditure attributable to the software product during its development can be reliably measured. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. All research costs are recognised as an expense when they are incurred. Other intangible assets Separately purchased intangible assets (i.e. software) were recognised at cost, plus any initial directly attributable costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Purchased software has a useful life ranging from 4 to 10 years. Software, customer contracts, relationships, trademarks, and training material acquired through business combinations were initially recognised at fair value. They are subsequently measured at initial recognition value less accumulated amortisation and impairment and have a useful life ranging from 4 to 10 years. Goodwill Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses and is annually tested for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Goodwill is allocated to CGU4 for the purpose of impairment testing (see note 3 Impairment), as this CGU is expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. Impairment of non-financial assets Intangible assets under development are not subject to amortisation and are annually tested for impairment within CGU1, CGU3 and CGU4, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. The carrying amount of the Group’s other non- financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment or objective evidence of impairment. If any such indication exists, the assets recoverable amount is estimated. 62 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 12. Intangible assets (continued) Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments for the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is estimated to be less than the carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss immediately.  D evelopment Work in assets Progress Patents Goodwill NZ$'000 NZ$'000 NZ$'000 NZ$'000 Customer contracts, relationships, Training trademarks materials Total NZ$'000 NZ$'000 NZ$'000 Cost Balance at 1 April 2020 Additions Business combination E xchange differences 424 915 13, 103 277 3, 988 (600) 174 - - - - 3, 199 85 Balance at 31 March 2021 16,768 1,339 174 3,284 321 - 382 (36) 667 219 14, 241 - (31) 188 1, 192 7, 569 (582) 22,420 Balance at 1 April 2021 Additions E xchange differences 16, 768 1, 473 - 1, 339 174 3, 284 667 188 22, 420 348 (13) - - - 25 - - - - 1, 821 12 Balance at 31 March 2022 18,241 1,674 174 3,309 667 188 24,253 Amortisation and impairment losses Balance at 1 April 2020 Amortisation for the year Impairment E xchange differences 7, 550 846 85 (221) Balance at 31 March 2021 8,260 Balance at 1 April 2021 Amortisation for the year Impairment E xchange differences Balance at 31 March 2022 8, 260 1, 330 100 (13) 9,677 - - - - - - - - - - 174 - - - 174 174 - - - 174 - - - - - - - - - - 38 82 - (8) 112 112 110 - (3) 11 19 - (1) 29 29 19 - - 7, 773 947 85 (230) 8,575 8, 575 1, 459 100 (16) 219 48 10,118 Carrying amounts At 31 March 2021 At 31 March 2022 8, 508 8,564 1, 339 1,674 - - 3, 284 3,309 555 448 159 140 13, 845 14,135 63                                                    Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 13. Leases Lease assets are contracts that convey the right to use office space in both Colorado and Wellington. They were initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at inception. Subsequently, they are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment, adjusted for remeasurement of the lease liability to reflect modifications. The corresponding lease liability to the lessor is included on the consolidated statement of financial position as a lease liability. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and a reduction in the lease liability. The finance charges and depreciation of the lease asset are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The Group’s ‘incremental borrowing rate’ used in the discounting for all lease liabilities was 5.50%. The leases typically ran for a period ranging from 1 to 3 years with an option to renew. The renewal periods for the Wellington leases were not taken into account, as management is reasonably uncertain that these will be renewed. In March 2022, the lease for office space in Colorado was extended for an additional nine months to April 2023, resulting in a lease modification. The Group applied the exemption for low-value assets on the lease of the photocopier and the exemption for short-term leases on the office space rented in Alabama. Therefore, the lease payments were recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Trade and other payables 2022 NZ$'000 3 25 28 2021 NZ$'000 3 56 59 Trade and other payables are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. Otherwise, they are presented as non-current liabilities. They are initially recognised at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The expense is accrued as services are delivered and payment is made at the end of the service period. The liability was initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. 65 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 15. Other liabilities (continued) Deferred consideration on business combination The Group acquired PoleForeman assets in the 2020 year and some of the consideration was deferred over a three-year period. Consideration consisted of cash payments and an unfixed number of shares. The liability was initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. Earn-out consideration on business combination (cash and shares) The Group acquired Visual Globe assets in the 2021 year, and a contingent consideration was recognised relating to achieving revenue milestones. The consideration consisted of both cash payments and share issuances. The contingent consideration liability was initially and subsequently measured at fair value, with gains or losses recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. A fair value movement of $1,303,000 has been recognised in the year from the movement of this instrument (2021: $178,000). The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated by calculating the present value of the future expected earn-out payment, using a 27.5% discount rate. The timing and likelihood of payment has been determined based on the forecasted revenue in the earnout period to end March 2024, and the Group estimates that only the first revenue target will be met during FY24. The model assumes no further revenue targets will be met within the earnout period, and therefore no consideration has been allocated to these targets. The estimates of the probability and timing of the revenue targets being met are based on forecasted cashflows and subject to both timing and achievement uncertainty, due to the early-stage nature of the business. The inputs to determine the fair value were level 3, unobservable inputs. 16. Financial instruments and financial risk management Financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are recognised on the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. They are trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, cash and cash equivalents, foreign exchange options, employee entitlements, lease liabilities, and other liabilities. They are included in current assets and current liabilities, except for lease liabilities with payment terms greater than 12 months, which are included in non-current liabilities. The Group classifies its financial assets and liabilities as ‘measured at amortised cost’ or ‘fair value through profit or loss’ at initial recognition. The following table shows the Group’s financial assets and liabilities and their classification: Financial instrument Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables and payables Employee entitlements Foreign exchange options Lease liabilities Other liabilities – deferred consideration Other liabilities – contingent consideration Classification Measured at amortised cost Measured at amortised cost Measured at amortised cost Fair value through profit or loss Measured at amortised cost Measured at amortised cost Fair value through profit or loss 66 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 16. Financial instruments and financial risk management (continued) Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows, where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at amortised cost. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Financial liabilities carried at amortised cost are initially recognised at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expenses from these financial liabilities are included in finance expenses. The fair value of financial instruments carried at amortised cost is not materially different from their stated carrying values. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of financial assets and liabilities is recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains and losses. Impairment losses on financial assets are presented as separate line item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Financial assets and liabilities recognised at fair value through profit or loss are originally and subsequently remeasured to fair value, with gains and losses being recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

The Group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. Liquidity risk is monitored through the development of future rolling cash flow forecasts. 67 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 16. Financial instruments and financial risk management (continued) Credit risk The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of a counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Group to credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, and the foreign exchange options. All cash and cash equivalents are held with high credit quality counterparties, being trading banks with at least an ‘AA-‘ credit rating in New Zealand, and a Moody’s ‘A3’ rating in the USA. The Group does not require collateral or security from its trade receivables, it performs credit checks, ageing analyses, and monitors specific credit allowances. The Group does not anticipate any material non-performance by customers. The total impaired trade receivables as at reporting date is $127,540 (2021: $105,562). At reporting date, 94% (2021: 81%) of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents were with one bank.

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs, taking into consideration the Group’s forward financing plans. Management believes that the Group has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations as they fall due for the next 12 months. The following table sets out the undiscounted cash flows for all financial liabilities of the Group: Employee entitlements Trade payables Other payables Accrued expenses Lease liabilities Other liabilities Total financial liabilities Contractual cash flows NZ$'000 676 1,124 86 546 252 2,690 5,374 6 months or less NZ$'000 - 1,124 86 546 133 779 2,668 6 months to 1 year NZ$'000 - - - - 119 - 119 1 to 2 years NZ$'000 - - - - - - - 2022 No stated maturity NZ$'000 676 - - - - 1,911 2,587 68 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 16.

Additionally, the institutional placement and share purchase plan completed during the year was predominantly in AUD, creating additional foreign currency risk exposure. Therefore, the Group has purchased AUD/USD foreign exchange options to mitigate the risk on its AUD cash holdings. If the NZD strengthened / weakened against the USD or AUD by 10% at 31 March 2022, the pre-tax loss would have been (higher) / lower as follows: Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Trade and other payables Sensitivity analysis 2022 2021 2022 2021 Carrying amount in USD US$'000 6,420 3,367 (824) 2022 Carrying amount in AUD AU$'000 13,144 - (8) Carrying amount in USD US$'000 5,881 1,752 (252) 2021 Carrying amount in AUD AU$'000 - - - Carrying amount US$'000 8,963 7,381 Carrying amount AU$'000 13,137 - Change in USD rate % 10% -10% 10% -10% Effect on loss before tax NZ$'000 (1,168) 1,428 (958) 1,172 Change in AUD rate % 10% -10% 10% -10% Effect on loss before tax NZ$'000 (1,286) 1,572 - - 69 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 16. Financial instruments and financial risk management (continued) Interest rate risk management The Group’s interest rate risk arises from its cash balances. The Group currently has no significant exposure to interest rate risk other than in relation to the amount held at the bank. A reasonably expected movement in the prevailing interest rate would not materially affect the Group’s consolidated financial statements. 17. Fair value estimation The Group measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value either at initial recognition and/or continually. To determine these fair values, valuation techniques are utilised. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group has identified what level of input is utilised in the valuation in the note for each asset or liability. An explanation of each level is below. Level 1: The fair value of assets/liabilities traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and equity securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. Level 2: The fair value of assets/liabilities that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the asset/liability is included in level 3. 18.

Basic and diluted earnings per share The Group presents earnings per share (‘EPS’) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. Total loss for the year attributable to the owners of the parent (NZ$'000) Ordinary shares issued Weighted average number of shares issued Basic loss per share 2022 (7, 857) 159, 296, 738 148, 854, 956 $ (0.05) 2021 (7, 493) 133, 140, 763 121, 474, 636 $ (0.06) The potential shares and options are anti-dilutive in nature due to the Group being in a loss position. The diluted loss per share is therefore the same as the undiluted EPS at ($0.05) and ($0.06) for the respective periods. 20. Capital management The capital structure of the Group consists of equity raised by the issuance of ordinary shares. The Group manages its capital to ensure it can continue as a going concern and is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. During the current financial year, the Group completed an institutional placement and share purchase plan raising $23.1m. The Group’s aim is to have a sufficient capital base to maintain investor and creditor confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Capital requirements are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors. There have been no material changes in the Group’s management of capital from the previous year. 21. Share-based payments reserve The share-based payments reserve is used to recognise both the fair value of options issued to employees but not exercised and contractual share payments to be made to employees based on the period of employment. Share-based payment reserve Share options Contractual share-based payments Total 2022 NZ$'000 2021 NZ$'000 2,267 501 2,768 913 265 1,178 The contractual share-based payments are in relation to employees who have service conditions, which when completed grant the right to shares. These arrangements arose from prior business combinations. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to settle the shares in cash and has no history of choosing to settle these payments in cash. As such, these awards are treated as equity settled share-based payments. 71 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 21. Share-based payments reserve (continued) The Group determined the value of shares issued under contractual share-based payments based on the agreed share price at the time of grant. This price is fixed. A total of 209,322 shares at a value of $136,266 were issued during the period for services rendered (2021: 226,415 shares at $135,849 value). Share options were granted to directors and selected employees to retain, reward, and motivate such individuals to contribute to the growth and profitability of the Group. Options outstanding at 31 March 2022 have a contractual life from grant date of between 4 and 6 years. Options can be exercised at any time after vesting and unexercised options expire at the end of the contract or if the employee leaves the Group. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to repurchase or settle the options in cash. Any share to be issued on the exercise of the option will be issued on the same terms and will rank equally in all respects with the ordinary shares in the company on issue. Movements in the number of share options outstanding and their related average exercise prices are as follows: At 1 April Granted Exercised Forfeited Expired 2022 Number of options ’000's Average exercise price 2021 Number of options ’000's Average exercise price $0.64 $1.01 $0.59 $0.70 nil $0.80 3,505 3,329 (799) (201) nil 5,834 $0.53 $0.78 $0.52 $0.57 nil $0.64 4,785 1,550 (2,599) (231) nil 3,505 Out of the 5,834,000 outstanding options 3,028,106 (2021: 1,820,852) had vested and were exercisable at 31 March 2022.
