Letter to shareholders 

Oren Elkayam (Chairman and Managing Director) 

1.   Company Introduction 

Mobilicom Limited is a hi-tech company that designs, develops and delivers communication solutions for mission critical 
and remote mobile private networks without the need for any  infrastructure. Mobilicom’s products and technologies are 
based on an innovative approach that merges 4G and Mobile MESH technologies. With versatile network topologies and 
a  large  product  portfolio,  Mobilicom  offers  a  number  of  product  families  that  have  been  commercially  deployed. 
Mobilicom has developed proprietary technology for a product portfolio that is fully designed and developed in-house with 
the utmost flexibility and scalability to optimise to customer needs.   

Mobilicom Limited is comprised of two entities:  

•  The Mobilicom entity offers solutions that cater to mission-critical communication in the Government & Enterprise 
sector, with  applications  in Unmanned Vehicles; Offshore  Oil, Gas  &  Energy; and  Homeland Security  &  Public 
Safety 

•  The SkyHopper entity targets the commercial & industrial drones & robotics market. SkyHopper leverages 

Mobilicom’s field-proven experience and technology to offer a holistic approach that consists of an end-to-end 
hardware portfolio, software tools, integration services and onsite support.  

This holistic approach enables commercial and industrial drone manufacturers and service providers to focus on their 
own business objectives by reducing time-to-market, minimizing resource expenditures and increasing their chances for 
success. 

2.  Significant Company Milestones 

This year was pivotal in terms of Mobilicom’s activities and achievements. Mobilicom became a public company, grew its 
operations, penetrated new markets and secured key contracts with a new and existing customer base. 

Mobilicom is traded on the Australian Securities Exchange 
In May 2017, Mobilicom Limited listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). Completion of a $7.5 million Initial 
Public  Offering (IPO) has  enabled  Mobilicom to grow its activities  in both Government & Enterprise and Commercial  & 
Industrial market verticals, with solutions from both the Mobilicom and SkyHopper entities.  

Mobilicom Grows as a Company 
Throughout 2017, Mobilicom increased its workforce significantly to support its growing operations and sales, and in turn 
has  increased  its  presence  on  a  global  level.  The  Company  increased  personnel  at  its  local  headquarters  in  sales, 
marketing,  research  and  development  (R&D),  and  finance  functions  to  support  its  business  goals.  It  increased  its 
worldwide  marketing,  sales  and  support  presence  in  its  key  markets  of  Asia  Pacific,  the  US  and  Western  Europe, 
building infrastructure for business success and future growth. The retention and growth of its employee base is enabling 
Mobilicom to execute new strategies the company has established in 2017 and carry them into 2018. 

Mobilicom Wins Two International Grants 
In  2017,  Mobilicom  won  two  major  grants  –  a  Smart  Money  grant  valued  up  to  $450,000  for  building  infrastructure  for 
sales  success  in  China;  and  an  R&D  grant  for  influencing  the  5G  standard  and  building  future  technology,  the  project 
scope of which is valued $650,000.

Letter to shareholders 

The Smart Money program is highly competitive, attracting qualified companies with a certain level of export activity and 
significant potential in China. The grant boosts Mobilicom’s marketing and sales efforts in the region, driving the growth 
of its market presence, building upon its strategic partnerships and expanding its team on the ground.  

Mobilicom  also  received  a  government  grant  for  its  involvement  in  the  Heron  5G  International  Research  Consortium, 
which  will  place  Mobilicom  at  the  forefront  of  5G  development,  and  which  is  expected  to  have  an  extremely  positive 
impact on wireless technology.  

3.  Successes of Mobilicom’s Core Business 

Mobilicom  has  continued to drive  success with its  core business.  In 2017, Mobilicom reached a base  of  more than  40 
customers across 15 countries. The Mobilicom entity continues to be the primary revenue generator with its core MCU 
business in the Government & Enterprise sector.  

The Company has driven sales in the unmanned vehicle and autonomous platform market, the offshore oil, gas & energy 
market and with several Homeland Security (HLS) integrators.  

Looking forward to 2018, the Mobilicom entity is expected to continue as the key revenue driver for the Company. 

Unmanned Vehicles & Robotics 
This  year,  Mobilicom  ramped  up  sales  with  a  strong  base  of  Government  &  Enterprise  unmanned  vehicles  customers 
that show year-over-year growth, and with whom Mobilicom has grown as a result.  Within this realm, with the increase in 
autonomous  UAV platforms, Mobilicom has been  supplying its  solutions to  a few market leaders of autonomous drone 
platforms, and these companies have begun initial deployments in resource industry, enterprise security and inspection 
applications, driving recurrent sales for Mobilicom in 2017.  

Maritime – Offshore Oil, Gas & Energy 
Mobilicom  has  garnered  success  with  top  offshore  oil  &  gas  integrators  that  will  lead  the  Company  to  expand  its 
presence in the Offshore Oil, Gas & Energy market vertical with existing and new customers. Projects included: 
1.  ExxonMobil: ExxonMobil expanded the use of Mobilicom’s technology, with an additional sale that comes after an 
initial  deployment  of  the  Mobilicom  solution.  Mobilicom  also  collaborated  with  ExxonMobil  to  increase  security  and 
elevate the customer’s protection against cyber threats. Most recently, ExxonMobil conducted successful fleet tests 
by using Mobilicom’s MESH capabilities with its own platforms and vessels to receive continuous video and data at 
long ranges.  

2.  Mediterranean  Gas  Project:  Mobilicom  secured  its  second  expansion  of  the  Mediterranean  Gas  Project,  bringing 
total  sales-to-date  with  this  customer  to  more  than  $1,100,000  for  this  project.  Mobilicom  recently  completed 
successful  maritime  field  testing  by  this  integrator,  resulting  in  the  integrator’s  plans  to  sell  our  solution  to  its 
customers  globally.  This  expansion is a  testament to Mobilicom  exceeding  the  expectations of the customer in the 
testing and deployment performance of its solutions.  

Public Safety, Security & Surveillance  
Mobilicom  conducted successful integration campaigns of its MCU solutions including field trials in the Czech Republic 
with a leading HLS system integrator and a customer demo in Sri Lanka involving helicopters and ground personnel in 
MESH  scenarios.  Mobilicom  drove  recurrent  sales  from  a  leading  autonomous  drone  manufacturer  as  well  as  several 
Israeli  HLS  integrators.  Mobilicom  has  also  seen  recurrent  sales  with  various  customers  in  Japan,  Europe  and  other 
regions of the world, growing potential for further deployment expansions of Mobilicom’s solutions. 

4.  SkyHopper Entity Successes 

Mobilicom made a strategic decision to expand its operations into the Commercial & Industrial sector with the SkyHopper 
entity, beginning with the Drone & Robotics market. It has done so by leveraging its core technologies in the Government 
&  Enterprise  sector  to  provide  a  solution  that  caters  to  the  unmet  needs  of  this  new  market.  With  the  objective  of 
shortening  Mobilicom’s  sales  cycle  and  driving  mass  quantities  of  the  Company’s  products,  as  the  commercial  drone 
market ramps up, Mobilicom expects to enjoy an increase in revenue, as its SkyHopper products will be integrated with 
established manufacturers in the sector. 

SkyHopper  by  Mobilicom  employs  a  holistic  approach  that  offers  an  end-to-end  hardware  portfolio,  software  tools, 
integration services and onsite support.

Mobilicom Limited | 31 December 2017    
Letter to shareholders 

In  Q2  2017,  Mobilicom  launched  an  aggressive  SkyHopper  strategy  for  winning  in  the  commercial  drone  &  robotics 
market. Mobilicom  is  in Phase I of this  strategy,  which includes  building  infrastructure to  establish  market share and  a 
leading market position. It is based on three pillars: 

1.  Releasing a broad portfolio of solutions and obtaining key worldwide certifications 
2.  Securing 8 design wins with worldwide drone manufacturers 
3.  Guaranteeing Compatibility or Partnership with 10 Ecosystem Partners. 

Despite the aggressive goals set by the Company, Mobilicom has so far outperformed its plan which is to run through Q2 
2018. In summary, the Company has achieved: 
•  7 out of 8 design wins to-date 
•  3 key worldwide certifications, surpassing its goal of 2 
•  3 out of 4 products launched 
•  5 out of 10 ecosystem compatibilities or partnerships. 

Design Wins 
To  date,  SkyHopper  has  secured  seven  design  wins  with  key  professional  commercial  drone  manufacturers  in 
geographic  markets  including  France,  S.  Korea,  Japan,  Singapore  and  Israel.  These  design  wins  prove  the  market 
traction and strong foothold that the SkyHopper brand has made since its recent launch, and place Mobilicom in a strong 
sales position as the commercial drone market continues to ramp up. Furthermore, through  its  design wins,  Mobilicom 
has secured contracts that have translated into initial commercial purchases for 2018. 

Solutions & Certifications 
SkyHopper  has  released  three  product  solutions  since  its  launch,  with  a  fourth  due  to  launch  in  Q1  2018.  This  places 
SkyHopper  on  track  with  its  product  roadmap.  SkyHopper  released  its  first  two  solutions,  SkyHopper  PRO  and 
SkyHopper ONE, in  Q2  &  Q3 respectively.  These  offer communication solutions  for professional commercial drones & 
robotics.  Mobilicom  released  SkyHopper  PRO  V  in  Q4,  which  offers  video  processing  &  analytics  in  addition  to 
communication.  

Additionally,  SkyHopper  has  exceeded  its  goal  of  receiving  two  certifications  in  2017,  with  the  receipt  of  a  third 
certification, enabling the solutions to be sold to an additional, unplanned market. To date, SkyHopper has received US 
(FCC) certification, European (CE) certification, as well as Japanese (TELEC) certification. 

Ecosystem Compatibility & Partnership 
Mobilicom  has  established  compatibility  and  partnership  with  five  key  drone  components  within  the  commercial  drone 
ecosystem  to  lock  in  market  share  and  broaden  its  market  positioning.  This  is  achieved  by  leveraging  ecosystem 
compatibilities and partnerships to provide a more complete solution and accelerated integration process for SkyHopper 
customers.  Mobilicom  has  established  compatibility  with  five  best-of-breed  companies  within  the  commercial  drone 
market, including those providing flight controllers, payloads and software for various services.  

Overall, the  achievements  Mobilicom  has made  in  executing  its  SkyHopper strategy  have  brought the  entity  significant 
success, which will position the Company strongly for future growth. 

5.  Financial Position 

In 2017, Mobilicom Limited secured several contracts with customers across both its Mobilicom and SkyHopper entities. 
The  Purchase  Orders  (POs)  that  were  received  resulting  from  these  contracts  were  significantly  backlogged,  placing 
Mobilicom  in  a  positive  position  for  2018  as  the  backlogged  POs  translate  into  significant  revenue  generation  in  2018.

mobile  private  communications  networks  without  the  need  to  rely  upon  or  utilise  existing  infrastructure.  The  Company's

Safety.  As well as  supporting the  company’s expansion into the commercial and industrial  market, with focus on Drones 
and  Robotics,  with  research  and  development  of  new  products  and  solutions  from  SkyHopper  business  entities.  This 
market is expected to grow over the next two years adding a significant additional revenue line for the Company. Sales for

in  2016  as  revenue  was  generated.  Mobilicom  has  continued  to  drive  successful  sales  in  2017  with  its  core  business  to 
existing and new customers, although reduced due to timing in the awarding of government contracts.   

The  Mobilicom  entity  continues  to  be  the  primary  revenue  generator  with  its  core  MCU  business  in  the  Government  & 
Enterprise sector. The Company has driven sales in the unmanned vehicle and autonomous platform market, the offshore 
oil, gas & energy  market and with  several  Homeland Security (HLS) integrators. Looking forward to 2018, the Mobilicom 
entity is expected to continue as the key revenue driver for the Company. 

The  SkyHopper  business  has  the  objective  of  shortening  Mobilicom’s  sales  cycle  and  driving  mass  quantities  of  the 
Company’s products, as the commercial drone market ramps up, Mobilicom expects to enjoy an increase in revenue, as its 
SkyHopper products will be integrated with established manufacturers in the sector.

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
The objective of the consolidated entity's executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive 
and  appropriate  for  the  results  delivered.  The  framework  aligns  executive  reward  with  the  achievement  of  strategic 
objectives and the  creation of  value for  shareholders, and  it  is considered to  conform to the market best practice for  the 
delivery of reward. The Board of Directors ('the Board') ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for 
good reward governance practices: 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 competitiveness and reasonableness 
 acceptability to shareholders 
 performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation 
 transparency 

The  Board is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements for its directors and executives. The 
performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy 
is to attract, motivate and retain high performance and high quality personnel. 

The reward framework is designed to align executive reward to shareholders' interests. The Board have considered that it 
should seek to enhance shareholders' interests by: 
● 
● 

 having economic profit as a core component of plan design 
 focusing on sustained growth in shareholder wealth, consisting of dividends and growth in share price, and delivering 
constant or increasing return on assets as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value 
 attracting and retaining high calibre executives 

● 

Additionally, the reward framework should seek to enhance executives' interests by: 
● 
● 
● 

 rewarding capability and experience 
 reflecting competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth 
 providing a clear structure for earning rewards 

In  accordance  with  best  practice  corporate  governance,  the  structure  of  non-executive  director  and  executive  director 
remuneration is separate. 

Non-executive directors remuneration 
Fees  and  payments  to  non-executive  directors  reflect  the  demands  and  responsibilities  of  their  role.  Non-executive 
directors' fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. The Board may, from time to time, receive advice from 
independent  remuneration  consultants  to  ensure  non-executive  directors'  fees  and  payments  are  appropriate  and  in  line 
with the market.  

ASX  listing  rules  require  the  aggregate  non-executive  directors'  remuneration  be  determined  periodically  by  a  general 
meeting.  The  most  recent  determination  was  at  the  Annual  General  Meeting  held  in  February  2017,  where  the 
shareholders approved a maximum annual aggregate remuneration of $250,000. 

Executive remuneration 
The  consolidated  entity  aims  to  reward  executives  based  on  their  position  and  responsibility,  with  a  level  and  mix  of 
remuneration which has both fixed and variable components. 

The executive remuneration and reward framework has four components: 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 base pay and non-monetary benefits 
 short-term performance incentives 
 share-based payments 
 other remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave 

The combination of these comprises the executive's total remuneration.

Directors' report 
31 December 2017 

Fixed remuneration,  consisting of base  salary,  superannuation  and non-monetary  benefits, are reviewed  annually  by  the 
Board  based  on  individual  and  business  unit  performance,  the  overall  performance  of  the  consolidated  entity  and 
comparable market remunerations. 

Executives  may  receive  their  fixed  remuneration  in  the  form  of  cash  or  other  fringe  benefits  (for  example  motor  vehicle 
benefits)  where  it  does  not  create  any  additional  costs  to  the  consolidated  entity  and  provides  additional  value  to  the 
executive. 

The  short-term  incentives  ('STI')  program  is  designed  to  align  the  targets  of  the  business  units  with  the  performance 
hurdles  of  executives.  STI  payments  are  granted  to  executives  based  on  specific  annual  targets  and  key  performance 
indicators  ('KPI's')  being  achieved.  KPI's  include  profit  contribution,  customer  satisfaction,  leadership  contribution  and 
product management. 

The  long-term  incentives  ('LTI')  include  long  service  leave  and  share-based  payments.  Shares  may  be  awarded  to 
executives  over a period  of  three  years based on  long-term incentive measures. These  include  increase  in shareholders 
value relative to the entire market and the increase compared to the consolidated entity's direct competitors.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2017 

Note 1. General information 

The financial statements cover Mobilicom Limited as a Group consisting of Mobilicom Limited and the entities it controlled 
at the end of, or during, the year. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Mobilicom Limited's 
functional and presentation currency. 

Mobilicom Limited is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office 
and principal place of business are: 

Registered office 

 Principal place of business 

Suite 1, Level 6, 50 Queen Street

 Australia 

A description of the  nature of the consolidated entity's operations  and  its principal activities are  included in  the directors' 
report, which is not part of the financial statements. 

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 16 February 2018. The 
directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. 

Note 2. Background 

These  financial  statements  include  the  financial  statements  of  Mobilicom  Limited  (the  “Company”),  and  its  legal 
subsidiaries  (the  “Consolidated  entity”).    Material  accounting  policies  adopted  in  the  preparation  of  these  financial 
statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.  

The  consolidated  entity  has  elected  to  present  the  statement  of  comprehensive  income  using  the  function  of  expense 
method. 

In order to IPO on the ASX, Mobilicom Israel underwent a restructure in the reporting period involving the insertion of an 
Australian holding company Mobilicom Limited. 

On 27 April 2017 Mobilicom Limited ("Mobilicom Australia") completed a capital reorganisation transaction with the  
shareholders of Mobilicom Israel.  

In accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards, the transaction does not constitute a business combination and 
the financial report has been prepared as a continuation of Mobilicom Israel.  

The  comparative financial  information included  in the  Company's financial  information is  that of Mobilicom Israel, not  the 
Company.  

The  accounting  policies  adopted  are  consistent  with  the  accounting  policies  of  Mobilicom  Israel's  last  annual  financial 
report for the year ended 31 December 2016.  

These  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Australian  dollars  and  the  controlling  entity,  Mobilicom  Australia,  has  a 
functional currency of the Australian Dollar (AUD).  

The functional currency of Mobilicom Israel is the New Israeli Shekel.   

The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial report:  

Note 3. Significant accounting policies 

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out either in the respective 
notes or below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

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

Mobilicom Limited  
Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2017 

Note 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. 

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')  and  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  as 
appropriate  for  for-profit  oriented  entities.  These  financial  statements  also  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB'). 

Historical cost convention 
The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  under  the  historical  cost  convention,  except  for,  where  applicable,  the 
revaluation  of  financial  assets  and  liabilities  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss,  investment  properties,  certain  classes  of 
property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments. 

Critical accounting estimates 
The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  the  use  of  certain  critical  accounting  estimates.  It  also  requires 
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity'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 in note 4. 

Parent entity information 
In  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  these  financial  statements  present  the  results  of  the  consolidated  entity 
only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 29. 

Principles of consolidation 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  subsidiaries  of  Mobilicom  Limited  
('Company' or 'parent entity') as at 31 December 2017 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Mobilicom 
Limited  and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'. 

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

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

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

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

Foreign currency translation 
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Mobilicom Limited 's presentation currency. 

Foreign currency transactions 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the 
transactions.  Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  resulting  from  the  settlement  of  such  transactions  and  from  the 
translation  at  financial  year-end  exchange  rates  of  monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  are 
recognised in profit or loss.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2017 

Note 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Foreign operations 
The  assets  and  liabilities  of  foreign  operations  are  translated  into  Australian  dollars  using  the  exchange  rates  at  the 
reporting date.  The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average 
exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange 
differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity. 

The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of. 

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

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

Research and development 
Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. 

Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will develop an intangible 
asset that will be completed and available for use or sale, that there are adequate technical, financial and other resources 
to complete the development, that it will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably. 

Impairment of financial assets 
The consolidated entity assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence of impairment 
of financial assets carried at amortized cost. 

Impairment of non-financial assets 
Goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets  that  have  an  indefinite  useful  life  are  not  subject  to  amortisation  and  are  tested 
annually  for  impairment,  or  more  frequently  if  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  they  might  be  impaired. 
Other  non-financial  assets  are  reviewed  for  impairment  whenever  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  the 
carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment  loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying 
amount exceeds its recoverable amount. 

Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the 
present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or 
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to 
form a cash-generating unit. 

Finance costs 
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in 
the period in which they are incurred.

Defined benefit plans 
The Company operates a defined benefit plan in respect of severance pay pursuant to the Severance Pay Law. According 
to the Law, employees are entitled to severance pay upon dismissal retirement and several other events prescribed by that 
Law. The liability for termination of employee-employer relationship is measured using the projected unit credit method. 

The actuarial assumptions include rates of employee turnover and future salary increases based on the estimated timing of 
payment. The amounts are presented based on discounted expected future cash flows using a discount rate determined by 
reference to  yields on  corporate  bonds with  a  term that matches  the estimated  term  of  the  benefit plan. In  respect of its 
severance pay obligation to certain of its employees, the Company makes current deposits in pension funds and insurance 
companies ("plan assets"). 

Plan assets comprise assets held by a Long-term employee benefits fund or qualifying insurance policies. Plan assets are 
not available to the Company's own creditors and cannot be returned directly to  the Company. The liability for employee 
benefits presented in the statement of financial position presents the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the 
fair value of the plan assets. 

Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in 
net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on 
the net defined benefit liability), are recognized immediately in the statement of financial position with a corresponding debit 
or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit 
or loss in subsequent periods. Past service costs are recognised in profit or loss. 

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes 
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. 

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority. 

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  that  have  recently  been  issued  or  amended  but  are  not  yet 
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the half-year reporting period ended 31 December 
2017.  The  consolidated  entity's  assessment  of  the  impact  of  these  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and 
Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below. 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 
This  standard  is  applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  1  January  2018.  The  standard  replaces  all 
previous  versions  of  AASB  9  and  completes  the  project  to  replace  IAS  39  'Financial  Instruments:  Recognition  and 
Measurement'. AASB 9 introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets. A financial asset shall 
be measured  at  amortised  cost,  if it is held within a  business model whose objective  is to  hold  assets in order to  collect 
contractual cash flows, which arise on specified dates and solely principal and interest. All other financial instrument assets 
are  to  be  classified  and  measured  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  unless  the  entity  makes  an  irrevocable  election  on 
initial recognition to present gains and losses on equity instruments (that are not held-for-trading) in other comprehensive 
income  ('OCI').  For  financial  liabilities,  the  standard  requires  the  portion  of  the  change  in  fair  value  that  relates  to  the 
entity's  own  credit  risk  to  be  presented  in  OCI  (unless  it  would  create  an  accounting  mismatch).  New  simpler  hedge 
accounting requirements are intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of 
the  entity.  New  impairment  requirements  will  use  an  'expected  credit  loss'  ('ECL')  model  to  recognise  an  allowance. 
Impairment will be measured under a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased 
significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. The standard introduces additional 
new disclosures. The consolidated entity is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of AASB 9 in future reporting 
periods.

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
This  standard  is  applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  1  January  2018.  The  standard  provides  a 
single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict 
the  transfer  of  promised  goods  or  services  to  customers  in  an  amount  that  reflects  the  consideration  to  which  the  entity 
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either written, verbal or 
implied) to be identified, together with the separate performance obligations within the contract; determine the transaction 
price,  adjusted  for  the  time  value  of  money  excluding  credit  risk;  allocation  of  the  transaction  price  to  the  separate 
performance  obligations  on  a  basis  of  relative  stand-alone  selling  price  of  each  distinct  good  or  service,  or  estimation 
approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. 
Credit  risk  will  be  presented  separately  as  an  expense  rather  than  adjusted  to  revenue.  For  goods,  the  performance 
obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. For services, the performance obligation is 
satisfied  when  the  service  has  been  provided,  typically  for  promises  to  transfer  services  to  customers.  For  performance 
obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate measure of progress to determine how much revenue 
should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied. Contracts with customers will be presented in an entity's 
statement  of  financial  position  as  a  contract  liability,  a  contract  asset,  or  a  receivable,  depending  on  the  relationship 
between the entity's performance and the customer's payment. Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required 
to enable users to understand the contracts with customers; the significant judgements made in applying the guidance to 
those  contracts;  and  any  assets  recognised  from  the  costs  to  obtain  or  fulfil  a  contract  with  a  customer.  The  standard 
introduces additional new disclosures. The consolidated entity is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of AASB 
15 in future reporting periods. 

AASB 16 Leases 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces AASB 
117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to exceptions, 
a  'right-of-use'  asset  will  be  capitalised  in  the  statement  of  financial  position,  measured  at  the  present  value  of  the 
unavoidable  future  lease  payments  to  be  made  over  the  lease  term.  The  exceptions  relate  to  short-term  leases  of  12 
months  or  less  and  leases  of  low-value  assets  (such  as  personal  computers  and  small  office  furniture)  where  an 
accounting policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit 
or  loss  as  incurred.  A  liability  corresponding  to  the  capitalised  lease  will  also  be  recognised,  adjusted  for  lease 
prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct  costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal or 
dismantling  costs.  Straight-line  operating  lease  expense  recognition  will  be  replaced  with  a  depreciation  charge  for  the 
leased  asset  (included  in  operating  costs)  and  an  interest  expense  on  the  recognised  lease  liability  (included  in  finance 
costs).  In  the  earlier  periods  of  the  lease,  the  expenses  associated  with  the  lease  under  AASB  16  will  be  higher  when 
compared  to  lease  expenses  under  AASB  117.  However  EBITDA  (Earnings  Before  Interest,  Tax,  Depreciation  and 
Amortisation) results will be improved as the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit 
or  loss  under  AASB  16.  For  classification  within  the  statement  of  cash  flows,  the  lease  payments  will  be  separated  into 
both a principal (financing activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, 
the  standard  does  not  substantially  change  how  a  lessor  accounts  for  leases.  The  standard  introduces  additional  new 
disclosures.  The  consolidated  entity  is  currently  in  the  process  of  evaluating  the  impact  of  AASB  16  in  future  reporting 
periods. 

Note 4. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  that 
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in 
relation  to  assets,  liabilities,  contingent  liabilities,  revenue  and  expenses.  Management  bases  its  judgements,  estimates 
and  assumptions  on  historical  experience  and  on  other  various  factors,  including  expectations  of  future  events, 
management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will 
seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing 
a  material  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  (refer  to  the  respective  notes)  within  the  next 
financial year are discussed below.

Note 4. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) 

Share-based payments 
The  consolidated  entity  has  a  share  based  remuneration  scheme  for  employees.  The  fair  value  of  share  options  is 
estimated  by  using  the  Black-Scholes  option  pricing  model,  on  the  date  of  grant  based  on  certain  assumptions.  Those 
assumptions  are  described  in  the  share  based  payments  note  and  include,  among  others,  the  dividend  growth  rate, 
expected  share  price  volatility  and  expected  life  of  the  options.  The  fair  value  of  the  equity  settled  options  granted  is 
charged to statement of comprehensive income over the vesting period of each tranche and the credit is taken to equity, 
based on the consolidated entity's estimate of shares that will eventually vest. 

Revenue from services according to construction contracts 
Revenues from services according to construction contracts are reported by the “percentage of completion” method. The 
percentage of completion is determined by dividing actual completion costs incurred to date by the total completion costs 
anticipated.  

Note 5. Operating segments 

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and 
incur  expenses  (including  revenues  and  expenses  relating  to  transactions  with  other  components  of  the  same  entity), 
whose  operating  results  are  regularly  reviewed  by  the  entity's  chief  operating  decision  maker  to  make  decisions  about 
resources  to  be  allocated  to  the  segment  and  assess  its  performance  and  for  which  discrete  financial  information  is 
available. This includes start-up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider other factors in 
determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to 
the  board  of  directors.  During  the  year  the  Company  only  operated  in  one  segment,  which  is  to  further  commercialise 
solutions for mission critical and remote mobile private communications networks without the need to reply upon or utilise 
existing infrastructure.

Sales were reduced due to long sales cycle and timing in the awarding of government contracts. As a small management 
team the IPO process also affected the sales results. The Mobilicom entity continues to be the primary revenue generator 
with  its  core  MCU  business  in  the  Government  &  Enterprise  sector.  Looking  forward  to  2018,  the  Mobilicom  entity  is 
expected to continue as the key revenue driver for the Company.  In addition as the commercial drone market ramps up, 
Mobilicom  expects  to  enjoy  an  increase  in  revenue,  as  its  SkyHopper  products  will  be  integrated  with  established 
manufacturers in the sector. 

Accounting policy for revenue recognition 
Revenues  are  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  or  receivables  less  any  trade  discounts,  volume 
rebates and returns.  

Sale of goods 
Revenues from the sale of goods are recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership  of the goods have 
passed to the  buyer and the seller no  longer retains  continuing managerial  involvement.  The delivery date is  usually  the 
date  on  which  risks  and  rewards  pass.  Revenues  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  when  the  revenues  can  be  measured 
reliably,  it  is  probable  that  the  economic  benefits  associated  with  the  transaction  will  flow  to  the  company  and  the  costs 
incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. 

Revenue from the sale of goods shall be recognised when all the following conditions have been satisfied: 
(a) the entity has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; 
(b)  the  entity  retains  neither  continuing  managerial  involvement  to  the  degree  usually  associated  with  ownership  nor 
effective control over the goods sold; 
(c) the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; 
(d) it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity; and 
(e) the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Note 6. Revenue (continued) 

Rendering of services 
Provided  the  amount  of  revenue  can  be  measured  reliably  and  it  is  probable  that  the  company  will  receive  any 
consideration. Revenue from services rendered is recognised in proportion to the stage of completion of the transaction at 
the reporting date 

When the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably, revenue associated with 
the transaction shall be recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting 
period. 
The outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably when all the following conditions are satisfied: 
(a) the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; 
(b) it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity; 
(c) the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and 
(d) the costs incurred for the transaction and the costs to complete the transaction can be measured reliably. 

Stage of completion is measured by reference to labour hours incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated labour 
hours for each contract. Where the contract outcome cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is only recognised to the extent 
of the recoverable costs incurred to date. 

In fixed fee contracts - according to AASB 111 “Construction Contracts"  pursuant to which revenues are reported by  the 
“percentage  of  completion”  method.  The  percentage  of  completion  is  determined  by  dividing  actual  completion  costs 
incurred to date by the total completion costs anticipated. When a loss from a project is anticipated, a provision is made in 
the period in which it first becomes evident, for the entire loss anticipated, as assessed by the company’s management. 

Government Grant income 
The  Company  receives  government  grant  income  from  the  Israeli  Innovation  Authority  (formerly  the  Office  of  the  Chief 
Scientist) (Innovation Authority). Grant revenue is accounted for during the period in which it is received.  

Interest 
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the 
amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the  effective interest 
rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset 
to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

Note 14. Current assets - trade and other receivables (continued) 

Accounting policy for trade and other receivables 
Trade and other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment. 

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written 
off  by  reducing  the  carrying  amount  directly.  A  provision  for  impairment  of  trade  receivables  is  raised  when  there  is 
objective evidence that the consolidated entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of 
the  receivables.  Significant  financial  difficulties  of  the  debtor,  probability  that  the  debtor  will  enter  bankruptcy  or  financial 
reorganisation and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable may be impaired. 
The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of 
estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating to short-term receivables

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 17. Current liabilities - borrowings (continued) 

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

Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the 
loans or borrowings are classified as non-current. 

The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the statement 
of financial position, net of transaction costs. 

On  the  issue  of  the  convertible  notes  the  fair  value  of  the  liability  component  is  determined  using  a  market  rate  for  an 
equivalent  non-convertible  bond  and  this  amount  is  carried  as  a  non-current  liability  on  the  amortised  cost  basis  until 
extinguished  on  conversion  or  redemption.  The  increase  in  the  liability  due  to  the  passage  of  time  is  recognised  as  a 
finance  cost.  The  remainder  of  the  proceeds  are  allocated  to  the  conversion  option  that  is  recognised  and  included  in 
shareholders equity as a convertible note reserve, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is 
not remeasured in the subsequent years. The corresponding interest on convertible notes is expensed to profit or loss.

Accounting policy for employee benefits 
The  company's  liabilities  for  severance  pay  retirement  and  pension  pursuant  to  Israeli  law  and  employment  agreements 
are  recognized  by  full  -  in  part  by  managers'  insurance  policies,  for  which  the  company  makes  monthly  payments  and 
accrued amounts in severance pay funds and the rest by the liabilities which are included in the financial statements. 

The  amounts  funded  displayed  above  include  amounts  deposited  in  severance  pay  funds  with  the  addition  of  accrued 
income. According to the Severance Pay Law, the aforementioned amounts may not be withdrawn or mortgaged as long 
as the employer’s obligations have not been fulfilled in compliance with Israeli law.

162,511  

Accounting policy for Government liabilities on grants received  
The  Company  measured  the  value  of  its  governmental  liabilities  on  grants  received,  each  period,  based  on  discounted 
cash flows derived from Company's future anticipated revenues. 

The  Company  participates  in  programs  sponsored  by  the  Chief  Scientist  ("OCS"),  for  the  support  of  research  and 
development projects. Several programs are subjected to royalties, while others are not (the company is committed to pay 
royalties  for  the  R&D  programs,  while  the  research  programs  does  not  required  repayment).  In  exchange  for  the  Chief 
Scientist's participation in the programs, the Company is required to pay royalties to the Chief Scientist at a rate between 
3%  and  3.5%  of  sales  of  developed  products  linked  to  U.S  dollars,  until  repayment  of  100%  of  the  amount  of  grants 
received,  plus  annual  interest  at  the  LIBOR  rate.  The  company  is  required  to  pay  royalties,  to  the  OCS,  of  sales  to  end 
customers of products developed with funds provided by the Chief Scientist, if and when such sales are recognized. 

The obligation to pay these royalties is contingent on actual sales of the products. Changes in the liability are recognized in 
research and development expenses.  The exceptions of the Company to pay the grants are based on its estimation at the 
end of the each year.

Ordinary shares 
Ordinary  shares  entitle  the  holder  to  participate  in  dividends  and  the  proceeds  on  the  winding  up  of  the  company  in 
proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value and the 
Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. 

On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each 
share shall have one vote. 

Capital risk management 
The  consolidated  entity's objectives when  managing  capital  is  to  safeguard  its  ability  to  continue as  a  going  concern,  so 
that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure 
to reduce the cost of capital. 

Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated 
as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. 

In  order  to  maintain  or  adjust  the  capital  structure,  the  consolidated  entity  may  adjust  the  amount  of  dividends  paid  to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

The  consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as 
value  adding  relative  to  the  current  Company's  share  price  at  the  time  of  the  investment.  The  consolidated  entity  is  not 
actively  pursuing additional investments in the short term as it  continues to integrate and grow its  existing businesses  in 
order to maximise synergies.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 23. Financial instruments 

Financial risk management objectives 
The consolidated entity's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk, price 
risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity's overall risk management program focuses 
on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of 
the  consolidated  entity.  The  consolidated  entity  uses  different  methods  to  measure  different  types  of  risk  to  which  it  is 
exposed.  These methods  include  sensitivity  analysis  in the  case  of  interest rate, foreign exchange  and  other price risks, 
ageing analysis for credit risk and beta analysis in respect of investment portfolios to determine market risk. 

Risk management is carried out by senior finance executives ('finance') under policies approved by the Board of Directors 
('the  Board').  These  policies  include  identification  and  analysis  of  the  risk  exposure  of  the  consolidated  entity  and 
appropriate  procedures,  controls  and  risk  limits.  Finance  identifies,  evaluates  and  hedges  financial  risks  within  the 
consolidated entity's operating units. Finance reports to the Board on a monthly basis. 

Market risk 

Foreign currency risk 
The  consolidated  entity  undertakes  certain  transactions  denominated  in  foreign  currency  and  is  exposed  to  foreign 
currency risk through foreign exchange rate fluctuations. 

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial  transactions  and recognised financial assets and financial  liabilities 
denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and 
cash flow forecasting. 

The  carrying  amount  of  the  consolidated  entity's  foreign  currency  denominated  financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  at 
the reporting date were as follows (holdings are shown in AUD equivalents):

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2017 

Note 23. Financial instruments (continued) 

Interest rate risk 
The  consolidated  entity’s  exposure  to  the  risk  of  changes  in  market  interest  rates  relates  primarily  to  the  consolidated 
entity’s cash deposits with floating interest rates. These financial assets with variable rates expose the consolidated entity 
to interest rate risk. 

Credit risk 
Credit  risk  refers  to  the  risk  that  a  counterparty  will  default  on  its  contractual  obligations  resulting  in  financial  loss  to  the 
consolidated  entity.  The  consolidated  entity  has  a  strict  code  of  credit,  including  obtaining  agency  credit  information, 
confirming references and  setting appropriate credit limits. The consolidated entity obtains guarantees where appropriate 
to  mitigate  credit  risk.  The  maximum  exposure  to  credit  risk  at  the  reporting  date  to  recognised  financial  assets  is  the 
carrying  amount,  net of any  provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed  in the statement  of financial position 
and notes to the financial statements. The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral. 

Liquidity risk 
Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash 
equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable. 

The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by 
continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. 

Remaining contractual maturities 
The following tables detail the consolidated entity's remaining contractual maturity for its financial instrument liabilities. The 
tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which 
the  financial  liabilities  are  required  to  be  paid.  The  tables  include  both  interest  and  principal  cash  flows  disclosed  as 
remaining  contractual  maturities  and  therefore  these  totals  may  differ  from  their  carrying  amount  in  the  statement  of 
financial position.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2017 

Note 26. Contingent liabilities 

The  Company  participates  in  programs  sponsored  by  the  Chief  Scientist  ("OCS"),  for  the  support  of  research  and 
development projects. Several programs are subjected to royalties, while others are not (the company is committed to pay 
royalties for the R&D programs, while the research programs do not required repayment).  

In exchange for the Chief  Scientist's participation in  the programs, the  Company  is required  to  pay  royalties to the  Chief 
Scientist at a rate between 3% and 3.5% of sales of developed products linked to U.S dollars, until repayment of 100% of 
the  amount  of  grants  received,  plus  annual  interest  at  the  LIBOR  rate.  The  company  is  required  to  pay  royalties,  to  the 
OCS, of sales to end customers of products developed with funds provided by the Chief Scientist, if and when such sales 
are recognised.  

The obligation to pay these royalties is contingent on actual sales of the products. Changes in the liability are recognised in 
research and development expenses. The exceptions of the Company to pay the grants are based on its estimation at the 
end of the each year.

Accounting policy for earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Mobilicom Limited , excluding any 
costs  of  servicing  equity  other  than  ordinary  shares,  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares  outstanding 
during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. 

Diluted earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account 
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing  costs associated with  dilutive potential ordinary  shares and the 
weighted  average  number  of  shares  assumed  to  have  been  issued  for  no  consideration  in  relation  to  dilutive  potential 
ordinary shares.

Accounting policy for share-based payments 
Equity-settled and cash-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. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of 
cash is determined by reference to the share price. 

The  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  are  measured  at  fair  value  on  grant  date.  Fair  value  is  independently  determined 
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact 
of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield 
and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether 
the  consolidated  entity  receives  the  services  that  entitle  the  employees  to  receive  payment.  No  account  is  taken  of  any 
other vesting conditions. 

The  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  are  recognised  as  an  expense  with  a  corresponding  increase  in  equity  over  the 
vesting  period.  The  cumulative  charge to profit  or loss  is  calculated based on the grant  date fair  value of  the award,  the 
best  estimate  of  the  number  of  awards  that  are  likely  to  vest  and  the  expired  portion  of  the  vesting  period.  The  amount 
recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already 
recognised in previous periods.

Mobilicom Limited  
Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2017 

Note 34. Share-based payments (continued) 

The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the 
Black-Scholes  option pricing model,  taking into consideration the terms  and conditions on which the award  was granted. 
The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: 
● 

 during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the
expired portion of the vesting period. 
 from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the 
reporting date. 

● 

All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to 
settle the liability. 

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  increases  the  total  fair 
value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. 

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is 
treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied 
during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the 
award is forfeited. 

If  equity-settled  awards  are  cancelled,  it  is  treated  as  if  it  has  vested  on  the  date  of  cancellation,  and  any  remaining 
expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and 
new award is treated as if they were a modification.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT 

To the members of Mobilicom Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion  

We have audited the financial report of Mobilicom Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the 
Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017, 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 consolidated financial report, 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 31 December 2017 and of its 
financial performance for the year ended on that date; 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 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 Company, would be in 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.  

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.

than Australia. 

•  Engaging component auditors in Israel.  

As part of this matter we evaluated: 

•  Their understanding of the ethical requirements 

and their professional competence to ensure 

they were competent and independent; 

•  The business activities of the component that 

were significant to the Group audit through 

regular teleconferences throughout the audit 

process; 

•  The susceptibility of the component's financial 

information to material misstatement from 

fraud and error; and 

•  Review of the component auditor's working 

papers, in particular the areas that were key to 

the Group audit.

Other information  

The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the 
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2017, 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 we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this 
other information, we are required to report that fact.  We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report  

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

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

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report  

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that 
includes our opinion.  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an 
audit conducted in accordance with 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 (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
