Principal  Activities

The Group’s principal activities are the provision of group ownership, strategy and oversight over a number of software and service 
enterprises.

Operating and Financial Review

Through FY19, MOQ has continued to drive its strategy to develop, build and acquire complementary Cloud focused technology 
businesses. 

The focus has been on balancing the following range of short, medium and long-term priorities:

1.  A continuation of the organic growth trajectory of the previous two financial years.

2. 

Increasing Recurring Services income streams in volume and also as a proportion of contribution to the Group

3.  To identify and lock down a high value acquisition for completion in early FY20.

4.  Maintain the investment cycle for key strategic imperatives – our NSW operation, the Skoolbag platform refresh, the Managed 

Services business and key vendor partner alliances. 

5.  For the MOQdigital business, successfully executing on major contract wins from FY18. 

6.  Ensure ongoing sustainable financial achievement – Operational Expense control, EBITDA and Cash position.

Key achievements for the period include:

1.  Continuation of Organic Growth:

a.  Overall revenue from ordinary activities grew  $8.74M  being a 14.6% increase on FY18

b.  The Services Business grew by 6.3% to $31.34M

c.  Technology Sales Revenue was up 23% to $36.5M, reflecting increased market demand in H1 of FY19..

06

MOQ ANNUAL REPORTFor personal use onlyDIRECTORS’ REPORT (cont.)

2.  Recurring Services Growth

a.  Recurring Services revenues grew by 19.3% to $13.5M.

b.  This now represents 43% of all services sold and delivered

c. 

 This was achieved despite delays experienced in expected increased revenue from our largest contract win from FY18 not 
becoming fully available until March 2019.

3.  Merger and Acquisition Success

a. 

 In early August 2019 the Wardy IT Solutions acquisition was announced and it is on schedule for completion on 30 August 
2019. (See ASX Announcement dated 12 August 2019)

b.  MOQ will commence realising financial benefit from this transaction from 1 September  2019.

c.  There is an ongoing program to identify businesses that are suitable M&A partners for MOQ Limited.

4.  Ongoing Investments – these are covered for MOQdigital and Skoolbag Overview sections below

5.  Major Recurring Service Engagements

a. 

b. 

 MOQdigital has onboarded 6 new major clients during FY19. Five of these have been successfully transitioned and are in a 
healthy Business As Usual mode.

 There were significant transition delays for our largest new contracted managed services client, which have now been resolved. 
These primarily arose out of unforeseen complexities of the client’s previous ICT environment. This complexity has resulted in 
higher than expected work effort and rework by MOQdigital and the Prime Contractor to migrate and transition the client’s 
applications and data. The resultant impact being:

i.  MOQdigital incurred significant and unexpected labour costs in its Professional Services business through H2 of FY19. 

ii.  This also resulted in an opportunity cost, as staff were not able to engage on other client opportunities, some of which 

were subsequently lost.

iii.  The  Managed  service  did  not  become  fully  activated  until  1  March  2019,  delayed  from  1  October  2018,  so  Recurring 

Service revenue streams were partially delayed.

iv.  Whilst MOQdigital has incurred substantial expenses, as this is a $12M contract value with potential for $15M plus over 
the 5 to 8 year contract term, we have taken a long term view of the transaction and are in discussions with the Prime 
Contractor for adjustments to both transition and ongoing fees

v.  We have taken a provision of $200,000 in the FY19 accounts and have decided to incur all one off costs in FY19.

c.  This table quantifies the opportunity costs of the delay and extra work effort that was required during the FY19 financial year 
to transition the client.  As can be seen below, given the cost has been borne by MOQ, the financial impact in FY19 of the delay 
and extra work has been calculated to be in excess of $1M to MOQ’s revenue, gross profit and EBITDA in H2 FY19.

above as a result of the impact of the delay and extra work on transitioning a major managed services client to commence the 
5 to 8 year contract

b.  Profit after Tax for FY19 of $2,288,024, an increase of 103% on prior year which is attributable to income tax credits from 

realisation of prior year losses.

c.  Operating Cashflow improvement between FY18 and FY19 of 78.6% and Cash Balance growth by 32% to $5,230,606

d.  The following one-off expenses and provisions have been incurred in FY19

i.  M&A corporate advisory, due diligence and transaction fees of $280,661 – resulting in the successful acquisition of Wardy 

IT Solutions;

ii.  Taxation consulting fees of $349,462 – success-based tax advisory fee for obtaining a successful private binding ruling 

regarding utilisation of past tax losses resulting in a material tax and cash benefit to the Company; and

iii.  Additional Doubtful Debt Provision - $200,000

e.  Operating expenses excluding depreciation and the one-off expenses and provision identified above was 15.3% of revenue in 

FY19, an improvement on FY18 (16.2%).

The MOQdigital business continues to provide a range of services and solutions to enable digital business transformation including 
consulting, integration, and managed services across applications, data and infrastructure platforms.

For MOQdigital, some highlights for FY19 include:

1.  Positioning  to  leverage  the  Digital Transformation  trend  –  our  strategic  decision  in  FY19  to  invest  in  both  growing 
MOQdigital’s capability as well as accelerate M&A effort in this space, which has resulted in the Wardy IT Solutions acquisition, 
ensures that MOQ is well placed to capitalise in this high growth market. The combined market presence of MOQdigital and 
Wardy IT Solutions will contribute in excess of $20M of Services to MOQ in FY20 in Digital Services market place.

2.  Sales and Business Development Progress – whilst retaining great clients is critical, business growth cannot happen without 
new clients. Over the last two years we have invested in our business development capability. This is reaping direct benefits. In 
FY19, over 16% of revenue from our top 20 clients came from clients who are new to MOQdigital over the last two years.

3.  Growing  our  Offering  through  leveraging  the  Colombo,  Sri  Lanka  Service  Centre  –  our  investment  in  Colombo 
business has resulted in an enhanced VTeams  offering. This allows our clients, especially those with international presence and 
staffing requirements to shape, build and house their own teams under MOQdigital’s guidance and oversight. A number of our 
clients have taken up the opportunity and we are now in a position to accelerate this offering into market.

4.  The Microsoft Opportunity – In the mid-tier enterprise business market segment, Microsoft is the clear leader for a range of 
Cloud Services, including Platforms, Applications and Infrastructure. MOQdigital has further enhanced its position with Microsoft, 
with the Wardy IT Solutions acquisition and is further investing in working closer in go to market efforts to capitalise on this 
opportunity.

SkoolBag

The SkoolBag business operates and develops a market leading Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) communications platform, including 
mobile apps, primarily for School and Education customers and also in the sports vertical.

For SkoolBag, some highlights for FY19 include:

2.  SkoolBag’s new mobile app hit #1 in Top Charts on Apple App Store and Google Play Store in late 2018

3. 

Implemented price increase across all school subscription renewals over FY19 with school contracts now on the higher $3 per 
student per year pricing  (previously $1 per student per year)

4.  +79% YoY increase in Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) to $210,000 at the end of FY19 ($117,000 at the end of FY18) 

5.  Developed new electronic school newsletter feature. The ‘SkoolBag eNewsletter’ beta concluded in August  and the new product 

will be rolled out to all customers in September 2019

6.  Consistently  high  Net  Promotor  Scores  (NPS)  and  Customer  Satisfaction  Scores  (CSAT).  SkoolBag’s  increased  customer

MOQ ANNUAL REPORTFor personal use onlyREMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

Remuneration Policy

The remuneration policy of MOQ Limited has been designed to align key management personnel (KMP) objectives with shareholder 
and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering performance incentives based on key performance 
areas affecting the consolidated group’s financial results. The Board of MOQ Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate 
and effective in its ability to attract and retain high quality KMP to run and manage the consolidated group, as well as create goal 
congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.

The  Board’s  policy  for  determining  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration  for  KMP  of  the  consolidated  group  is  to  have  the 
remuneration  policy  developed  by  the  Board  after  professional  advice  is  sought  where  appropriate  from  independent  external 
consultants. No external advice was sought for the current financial year.

•  All KMP receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, fringe benefits 

and performance incentives.

•  Performance incentives are generally only paid once predetermined key performance indicators (KPIs) have been met.

•  The Board reviews KMP packages annually by reference to the consolidated group’s performance, executive performance and 

comparable information from industry sectors.

• 

Incentives paid in the form of options or rights are intended to align the interests of the KMP and the Group with those of the 
shareholders. In this regard, KMP are prohibited from limiting risk attached to those instruments by use of derivatives or other 
means.

The performance of KMP is measured against criteria agreed biannually with each executive and is based predominantly on the forecast 
growth  of  the  consolidated  group’s  profits  and  shareholders’  value. All  bonuses  and  incentives  must  be  linked  to  predetermined 
performance criteria. The Board may, however, exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options.

KMP receive at a minimum, a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which for the year ending 30 June 
2019 was 9.50% (2018: 9.5%) of the individual’s average weekly ordinary time earnings. KMP do not receive any retirement benefits. 
All remuneration paid to KMP is valued at the cost to the company and expensed.

The Board’s policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The Board 
determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and 
accountability.  Independent  external  advice  is  sought  when  required. The  maximum  aggregate  amount  of  fees  that  can  be  paid  to 
non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders. Currently, the maximum aggregate remuneration of non-executive 
directors is $500,000.

Performance-based Remuneration:

The  KPIs  are  set  annually,  in  consultation  with  KMP. The  KPIs  target  areas  the  Board  believes  hold  greater  potential  for  group 
expansion and profit, covering financial and non-financial as well as short and long-term goals. The level set for each KPI is based on 
budgeted figures for the Group and respective industry standards.

Performance in relation to the KPIs is assessed annually, with bonuses being awarded depending on the number and deemed difficulty 
of the KPIs achieved. Following the assessment, the KPIs are reviewed by the remuneration committee in light of the desired and actual 
outcomes, and their efficiency is assessed in relation to the Group’s goals and shareholder wealth, before the KPIs are set for the 
following year. In determining whether or not a KPI has been achieved, the Board bases the assessment on the Company’s performance 
using audited figures.

MOQ ANNUAL REPORTFor personal use onlyNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements cover MOQ Limited (“Company or “parent entity”) and its controlled entity as a consolidated 
entity (also referred to as “the Group”). MOQ Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The 
Group is a for-profit entity and is primarily involved in the information technology industry being the field of software and services.

The separate financial statements of the parent entity, MOQ Limited, have not been presented within this financial report as permitted 
by the Corporations Act 2001.

The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 19 September 2019.

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the consolidated entity in the preparation and presentation 
of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

(a)  Basis of preparation of the financial report

Statement of Compliance 

These  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements  which  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  the 
Corporations Act  2001, Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations,  and  comply  with  other  requirements  of  the  law  where 
applicable. 

Accounting Standards include Australian Accounting Standards. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that 
the  financial  statements  and  notes  of  the  Company  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  (‘IFRS’).  It  is 
recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the public announcements made by MOQ Limited during 
the year in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report has been prepared on the historical cost basis.

When required by accounting standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the 
current year. When the Company applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies 
items in its financial statements, a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be 
disclosed. 

(b)  Business combinations

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

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

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

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

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

(c)  Goodwill 

Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum of:

- 

- 

- 

the consideration transferred;

any non-controlling interest (determined under either the full goodwill or proportionate interest method); and

 the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable 
assets acquired.

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

Fair value re-measurements in any pre-existing equity holdings are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which  they 
arise. Where changes in the value of such equity holdings had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income, such 
amounts are recycled to profit or loss.

Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)

(c)  Goodwill (cont)

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group’s cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating 
units, representing the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored being not larger than an operating segment. Determining 
whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been 
allocated. The value in use calculation requires the directors to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-
generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Where the actual future cash flows are less than 
expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

(d)  Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of accounting estimates. It also requires 
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving higher 
degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are 
disclosed in Note 2.

(e)  Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent (MOQ Limited) and all 
of the subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities that the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it 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 over 
the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 32.

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

(f)  Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis, depending on 
the requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard. Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or 
would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly (i.e. unforced) transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing 
market participants at the measurement date.

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

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

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

These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. If all significant inputs required 
to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more significant inputs are not based 
on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3.

The Group would change the categorisation within the fair value hierarchy only in the following circumstances:

- 

- 

if a market that was previously considered active (Level 1) became inactive (Level 2 or Level 3) or vice versa; 

if significant inputs that were previously unobservable (Level 3) became observable (Level 2) or vice versa.

When a change in the categorisation occurs, the Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy (i.e. 
transfers into and out of each level of the fair value hierarchy) on the date the event or change in circumstances occurred.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)

(g) 

Income tax

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

Current income tax expense or revenue for the year is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the 
notional income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to 
unused tax losses.

Deferred income tax is provided using the liability method 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 
that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred 
income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future 
taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases 
of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary 
differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and 
when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax asset and tax liabilities are offset where the 
entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability 
simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

(h)  Tax Consolidation Legislation

The  Company  and  its Australian  wholly  owned  subsidiaries  have  formed  an  income  tax  consolidated  group  under  the  tax 
consolidation legislation for the whole of the financial year. Each entity in the Group recognises its own current and deferred tax 
liabilities, except for any deferred tax liabilities resulting from unused tax losses and tax credits, which are immediately assumed 
by the parent entity. The Group notified the Australian tax Office it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 
1 June 2015. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the Group contributes 
to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated group.

(i)  Plant and equipment

Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less any applicable accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment 
losses. Plant and equipment is measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by 
directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from those assets.

The  recoverable  amount  is  assessed  on  the  basis  of  the  expected  net  cash  flows  which  will  be  received  from  the  assets 
employment  and  subsequent  disposal. The  expected  net  cash  flows  have  been  discounted  to  present  values  in  determining 
recoverable amounts.

The depreciated amount of all fixed assets including capitalised leased assets is depreciated on a straight line basis over their 
useful lives commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. 

The expected useful life of plant and equipment ranges from 3 to 15 years. 

The  assets’  residual  values  and  useful  life  are  reviewed  at  the  balances  date. The  asset’s  carrying  amount  is  written  down 
immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater that its estimated recoverable amount. 

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful 
lives of the improvements.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These are included net in profit 
or loss.

Depreciation

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

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)

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

Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate

Leasehold improvements 

Term of lease

Plant and Equipment  

33.33 - 66.67% 

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

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

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are 
recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation 
surplus relating to that asset are transferred to accumulated losses.

(j)  Leases

At inception of an arrangement, the Group determines whether such an arrangement is, or contains, a lease. A specific asset is 
the subject of a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of that specified asset. An arrangement conveys 
the right to use the asset if the arrangement conveys to the Group the right to control the use of the underlying asset. At 
inception, or upon reassessment of the arrangement, the Group separates payments and other consideration required by such 
an arrangement into those for the lease and those for other elements on the basis of their relative fair values.

Leases reclassified at their inception as either operating or finance leases based on the economic substance of the arrangement 
so as to reflect the risks and benefits incidental to ownership.

Lease of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal 
ownership, are transferred to the entity are classified as finance leases. Finance lease are capitalised by recording an asset and 
a  liability  equal  to  the  fair  value  of  the  leased  property  or  the  present  value  of  the  minimum  lease  payments  including  any 
guaranteed  residual  values. The  interest  expense  is  calculated  using  the  interest  rate  implicit  in  the  lease  and  is  included  in 
finance costs in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Lease assets are depreciated on a straight 
line basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the entity will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of 
the lease. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the year.

Lease payments for operating leases where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor are recognised as an 
expense in the year in which they are incurred. Lease incentives received under operating leases are recognised as a liability and 
amortised on a straight line basis over the life of the lease term.

(k)  Financial instruments

The Group initially recognises financial assets on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to a contractual provision 
of the instrument.

Financial assets are initially measured at cost. If the financial asset is not subsequently measured at fair value through profit 
or  less,  the  initial  measurement  includes  transaction  costs  that  are  directly  attributed  to  the  asset’s  acquisition. The  Group 
subsequently measures financial assets at either amortised costs or fair value.

A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method and net of any impairment loss, 
if:

-  The asset is held with an objective to collect cash flows; and

-  The contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

Financial assets other than those classified as financial assets measured at amortised costs are subsequently measured at fair 
value with all changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions 
of the instrument. Non derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal 
payment and amortisation. 

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire. Financial assets 
and financial liabilities are offset when the Group has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net 
basis or to realise the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)

(l) 

Impairment of financial assets

A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there 
is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that 
one or more events have occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and that the loss event has a negative effect on the 
estimated future cash flows of that assets which can be estimated reliably.

The Group considers evidence of impairment for receivables at both a specific and collective level. All individually significant 
receivables found not to be specifically impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but 
not yet identified.

(m)  Impairment of non-financial assets

Intangible assets are tested annually for impairment or more frequently if changes in circumstances indicate that they might be 
impaired.

At each reporting date the Group assesses whether there is any indication that individual assets are impaired. Where impairment 
indicators exist, recoverable amount is determined and impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss where the asset’s 
carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and 
value in use. 

For the purpose of assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax 
discount rate that reflects current marked assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

(n) 

Intangible assets

Customer  contracts  acquired  as  part  of  a  business  combination  are  recognised  separately  from  goodwill. The  customer 
contracts are carried at fair value at the date of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Fair value is 
assessed based on the income streams generated from customer contracts after allowing for cost specific to the generation of 
those income streams. In the assessment of the carrying value of the intangible assets costs not related to the generation of the 
contract related income streams were excluded. These intangibles are separate from the business to which they relate and have 
been assessed on this basis. Amortisation is calculated based on the timing of projected cash flows of the contracts over their 
estimated useful lives, which at present are 1.5 years to 8 years.

Software acquired as part of a business combination is recognised separately from goodwill. The software is carried at fair value 
at the date of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Amortisation is calculated based on the timing 
of projected cash flows of the contracts over their estimated useful lives, which at present are 4 years.

Software  created  internally  is  carried  at  fair  value  less  accumulated  amortisation  and  impairment  losses. Amortisation  is 
calculated based on the timing of projected cash flows over their estimated useful lives, which at present are 5 years.

(o)  Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options 
are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax.

If the entity reacquires its own equity instruments, those instruments are deducted from equity and the associated shares are 
cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss and the consideration paid including any directly attributable costs 
net of any taxes is recognised directly in equity.

(p)  Foreign currency transactions and balances

The  functional  currency  of  each  entity  in  the  consolidated  entity  is  measured  using  the  currency  of  the  primary  economic 
environment  in  which  that  consolidated  entity  operates. The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  presented  in Australian 
dollars which is the consolidated entity’s functional and presentation currency.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the 
transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated using the spot rate at the end of the financial year. Non monetary 
items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the date of the transaction. Non monetary items measured at fair 
value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when the fair values were determined. Material exchange differences arising 
on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow 
or net investment hedge. Material exchange differences arising on the translation of non monetary items are recognised inequity 
to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity otherwise the exchange is recognised in profit or loss.

(q)  Employee benefits

  Wages and salaries and annual leave 

Liabilities for wages and salaries, and annual leave, including non monetary benefits, expected to be settled within 12 months of 
the reporting date are recognised in other payables, in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured 
at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled, on an undiscounted basis.

Long service leave

The liability for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date 
are recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be 
made for services provided by employees up to the reporting date. 

Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. 
Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms 
to maturity and currency that match as closely as possible the estimated future cash outflows.

Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employments are terminated before the normal retirement date, or when the employee 
accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits.

The  Group  recognises  termination  benefits  when  it  is  demonstrably  committed  to  either  terminating  the  employment  of 
current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal or providing termination benefits as a 
result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after reporting date are 
discounted to present value.

(r)  Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable 
that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. 

Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present 
obligation at the Statement of Financial Position date. The discount rate used to determine the present value reflects current 
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. 

(s)  Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at banks, deposits held on call with banks, other short term highly liquid 
investments with an original maturity date of three months or less held and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within 
borrowings in current liabilities in Statement of Financial Position.

(t)  Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.

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

Please refer to note 1 (u) below for the new revenue accounting policy that has been adopted for FY19.

(u)  New and revised accounting requirements applicable to the FY19 period

A new Standard, being AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers has been adopted for the FY19 reporting period. No 
restatement has been required for previous financial statements. 

The group has identified the following main categories by segment:

•  Technology – sale of ICT hardware, software and licensing

• 

 Professional Services – Infrastructure, Cloud, Data & Analytics, Consulting Professional Services and SkoolBag application set 
up, web hosting and online marketing services.

•  Recurring Services – Managed Services, SkoolBag Mobile App services.

(i) 

Rendering of Recurring Services – Managed Services

Managed Services & Mobile App revenues primarily derives from provision of IT service desk and outsourced IT services. 
Where  consideration  is  received  in  advance  of  performance,  it  is  initially  recorded  as  deferred  revenue.  Revenue  is 
recognised as the performance obligations are satisfied which is considered to be evenly over the contracted term.

No changes to revenue recognition were identified under AASB 15.

(u)  New and revised accounting requirements applicable to the FY19 period (continued)

(ii)  Rendering of Services – Professional Services

Revenue from professional services for Infrastructure, Cloud, Data & Analytics and Consulting are recognised over time 
either by reference to the stage of completion of the contracts, or by the labour hours incurred to date if provided 
for  contractually.  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 outcome cannot be reasonably measured, revenue is only 
recognised to the extent of the recoverable costs incurred to date of the performance obligation.

No changes to revenue recognition were identified under AASB 15

(iii)  Rendering of Services – SkoolBag application set up

Application set up revenues consist of fees charged for the setting up of the mobile application for customers. Where the 
Group has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed and no alternative use for the asset, it recognises 
revenue at the point of completion of the set up when the performance obligations have been satisfied, as per AASB 15.

No changes to revenue recognition were identified under AASB 15. 

(iv)  Rendering of Services – SkoolBag web hosting 

Hosting  revenue  primarily  derives  from  website  hosting  services.  Where  consideration  is  received  in  advance  of 
performance,  it  is  initially  recorded  as  deferred  revenue.  Revenue  is  recognised  as  the  performance  obligations  are 
satisfied which is considered to be evenly over the contracted term.

No changes to revenue recognition were identified under AASB 15.

(v)  Rendering of Services – SkoolBag Online marketing

Online marketing revenue consists of rebates received from advertisers for successful customer sign-ups to advertiser 
services. Revenue is recognised at the point where advertisers confirm the rebates have been earned.

No changes to revenue recognition were identified under AASB 15.

(vi)  Technology Sales and Transaction prices

The Group’s customer contracts may include multiple performance obligations. In these cases the Group allocates the 
transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling prices of each distinct service. 
Standalone selling prices are determined based on prices charged to customers for individual products and services taking 
into consideration the size and length of contracts, service rate cards and the Group’s overall go to market strategy.

No changes to revenue recognition were identified under AASB 15.

(vii)  Principal versus agent considerations

The Group acts as an agent for vendors of Cloud Services and recommends such services to customers where appropriate. 
Where consumption of such services meet certain criteria set by the vendor, the Group may be entitled to rebates. Such 
rebates are recognised in arrears upon confirmation by the vendors of the rebates earned.

No changes to revenue recognition were identified under AASB 15. 

(viii)  Customer acquisition costs

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer are capitalised when expected to be recovered under the 
contract. 

Where costs are incurred in transitioning a Managed Services contract, such costs are capitalised and amortised over the 
expected period of benefit.

The Group capitalised $768,523 of customer acquisition costs for the year ended 30 June 2019. These costs are amortised 
over the length of the contracts, which is up to 60 months. $74,768 was amortised for the year ended 30 June 2019.

No adjustments have been made for prior periods.

AASB 15 allows entities to immediately expense costs which would have been amortised within a year or less and for 
such situations the Group recognises the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred. 

(viii)  Taxation impacts

The adoption of AASB 15 has not resulted in a deferral of revenues and costs of goods sold from prior periods into future 
periods. 

(v)  Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial 
period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are 
substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in 
which they are incurred.

(w)  Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Group by the 
weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued 
during the 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. 
Potential  ordinary  shares  are  anti-dilutive  when  their  conversion  to  ordinary  shares  would  increase  earnings  per  share  or 
decrease loss per share from continuing operations.

(x)  Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest 
method, less provision for impairment.

Collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off by 
reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account (provision for impairment of trade receivables) is used when there 
is objective evidence that the group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 
Refer to Note 1(l) for further discussion on determination of impairment losses.

The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an 
impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectable in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance 
account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in profit or loss.

(y)  Work in progress

Work in progress is stated as the aggregate of costs incurred to date plus recognised profits less recognised losses and progress 
billings. Cost includes all costs directly related to specific contracts, and an allocation of overhead costs attributable to contract 
activity in general.

Project profits are recognised on the stage of completion basis and measured using the proportion of costs incurred to date as 
compared to expected total costs. Where losses are anticipated they are provided for in full.

Project revenue has been recognised on the basis of the terms of the contract adjusted for any variations or claims allowable 
under the contract.  Any credit balance in work in progress is reclassified as income in advance.

When the outcome of the project cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is only recognised to the extent that the costs incurred 
are recoverable

(z)  Trade and other payables

Trade  and  other  payables  represent  the  principal  amounts  outstanding  at  balance  date,  plus,  where  applicable,  any  accrued 
interest. These amounts are unsecured and are usually settled within 30 days of recognition.

(aa)  Operating segments

The  Company  has  identified  its  operating  segments  based  on  internal  reports  that  are  reviewed  and  used  by  the  Board  of 
Directors (chief operating decision makers) to make financial and operational decisions and to allocate resources. We attribute 
sales to an operating segment based on the type of product or service provided to the customer. 

We have identified three reportable segments, as follows:

-  Technology Sales – provision of vendor hardware, software and associated licenses and maintenance contracts; 

- 

- 

 Professional Services – provision of a range of specialist services including consulting, project management, systems and 
software engineering services to assist clients with strategy, architecture, design, development and implementation of ICT 
solutions; and

 Recurring Services – a combination of managed services including operations, support and ICT management, as well as a 
range of in-house developed commercialised IP and Cloud (SAAS) based solutions.

The consolidated entity primarily services clients in one geographical segment being Australia, with support from Australia, Sri 
Lanka and New Zealand. However, there are no material revenues generated outside of Australia, and as a result no additional 
geographical segment information has been provided.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)

(bb)  Goods and Services Tax (GST)

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

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

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

(cc)  New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods 

Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are not yet mandatorily applicable to the Group, together 
with  an  assessment  of  the  potential  impact  of  such  pronouncements  on  the  Group  when  adopted  in  future  periods,  are 
discussed below:

AASB 16: Leases

Applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2019. When effective, this Standard will replace the 
current accounting requirements applicable to leases in AASB 117: Leases and related interpretations. AASB 16 introduces a 
single lessee accounting model that eliminates the requirement for leases to be classified as either operating leases or finance 
leases. Lessor accounting remains similar to current practice.

The main changes introduced by the new Standard are as follows:

(i) 

(ii) 

(iii)  

(iv) 

 recognition of the right-to-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short term leases with less than 12 months of 
tenure and leases relating to low value assets);

 depreciating the right-to-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in profit or loss and unwinding 
of the liability in principal and interest components;

inclusion of variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate in the initial measurement of the lease liability using 
the index or rate at the commencement date;

 application of a practical expedient to permit a lessee to elect not to separate non-lease components and instead account 
for all components as a lease; and

(v) 

additional disclosure requirements.

The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lease to either retrospectively apply the Standard to comparatives in line with 
AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect of retrospective application as an adjustment to opening equity at the date of initial 
application. 

Estimated impact of AASB 16 on the Group when the standard is applied

Due to the adoption of AASB 16, the Group’s EBITDA will improve, while its interest and Amortisation (Depreciation) expense 
will increase. This is due to the change in the accounting for expenses of leases that were classified as operating leases under 
AASB 117. The current liabilities will be increased which could reduce the net working capital of the Group

At the 30 June 2019 the Group expects the following impact if the standard was adopted

Statement of Financial Position

The right of Asset

The  Group  expects  the  impact  to  reduce  profit  before  tax  for  30  June  2019  of  $24,463  and  that  operating  cashflows  will 
increase by $703,784.

NOTE 2: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

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

Key Estimates

Impairment of Non-Current Assets

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

Debtors (Bad Debt Provision)

The  provision  for  impairment  of  receivables  assessment  requires  a  degree  of  estimation  and  judgement. The  level  of  provision  is 
assessed  by  taking  into  account  the  recent  sales  experience,  historical  collection  rates  and  specific  knowledge  of  the  individual 
debtors’ financial position.

Impairment of goodwill

Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash generating units to which goodwill 
has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the directors to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the 
cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Where the actual future cash flows are less than 
expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

Taxation

The Group’s accounting policy for taxation requires management’s judgment in assessing whether deferred tax assets and deferred 
tax liabilities are recognized in the Statement of Financial Position.  Deferred tax assets, including those arising from un-recouped tax 
losses and temporary differences are recognized only where it is considered more likely than not that they will be recovered, which 
is dependent upon the generation of sufficient future taxable profits.

Assumptions about the generation of future profits depend upon management’s estimates of future profitability and cash flows.  These 
depend upon estimates of future income, operating costs, capital expenditure, dividends and other capital management transactions.  
Judgments and assumptions are also required in relation to the application of income tax legislation.  These judgments and assumptions 
are  subject  to  risk  and  uncertainty.   Therefore  there  is  a  possibility  that  changes  in  circumstances  will  alter  expectations,  which 
may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognized in the Statement of Financial Position and the 
amount of tax losses and temporary differences not yet recognized.  In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying amounts of 
recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in a correction to the Statement of Profit or Loss and 
Comprehensive Income.

Share-based payments

The fair value of options issued under the MOQ Limited Employee Incentive Plan is measured by reference to the fair value of options 
granted.  The fair value estimate is based on the Black Scholes option-pricing model.  The contractual life of the options is used as an 
input into the model.  Further information regarding assumptions is included in Note 30.

031

MOQ ANNUAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORTFor personal use onlyNOTE 3: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Recoverability of Work in Progress

The Company assesses work in progress on a monthly basis to determine whether the amounts accrued are recoverable to the Group 
when billed to customers. At the reporting date, the directors believe that the carrying value of work in progress is recoverable in full.

Valuation of Provisions

The Company has assessed the value of provisions at the reporting date in line with the accounting policy at Note 1(r).

Risk management is the role and responsibility of the board. The Group’s current activities expose it to minimal risk. However, as 
activities increase there may be exposure to credit, liquidity, foreign currency and interest rate risks.

Determination of Intangible Property Acquired

The company has assessed the value of intangible property acquired from the acquisition of Skoolbag and Tetran using management’s 
judgement in determining the fair values of the property acquired.

(a)  Credit Risk

The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk other than one large debtor amount of $1.6m (16% of total trade 
receivables as at 30 June 2019). As at the date of this report approximately $539k has been received. As there are no other 
major concentration of debtors, no sensitivity analysis has been prepared by the Group. The ageing of the Group’s trade and 
other receivables net of bad debt provisions at the reporting date is:

The directors believe that the above stated balances are fully recoverable.

(b)  Liquidity

Prudent  liquidity  risk  management  implies  maintaining  sufficient  cash  to  meet  commitments  as  and  when  they  fall  due. The 
Group  manages  liquidity  risk  by  preparing  forecasts  and  monitoring  actual  cash  flows  and  requirements  for  future  capital 
raisings.  The Group has a committed credit line available, which is appropriate given the nature of its operations. Surplus funds 
are  invested  in  a  cash  management  account  with Westpac  Banking  Corporation,  St  George  and  HSBC  which  is  available  as 
required.

The material liquidity risk for the Group is the ability to raise equity or access debt finance as required in the future.

* A private ruling was lodged on 5 February 2019 (after finalisation of the 2018 financial statements but before lodgement of the 
2018 Income Tax Return) applying for modification of the continuity of ownership test for tax losses related to the entity prior to 
reconstruction that were initially treated as lost in accordance with the continuity of business rules under the Australian Taxation 
legislation. On 11 April 2019, the Australian Taxation Office ruled in favour of MOQ and tax returns were amended to ensure use 
of the losses. The amendments resulted in additional tax losses of $5,118,269 being recognised.

(g) Tax consolidation

For the purposes of income taxation MOQ Limited and its 100% Australian owned subsidiaries form a tax consolidated group. 
The head entity of the consolidated group is MOQ Limited.

The head entity is responsible for the liabilities of the group. Intra group transactions are ignored for tax purposes and there is a 
single return lodged on behalf of the group.

Impairment Testing:

Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGUs (cash generating units) or groups that are expected to benefit from 
the synergies of the combination. Accordingly, TETRAN’s CGU has been combined with certain MOQdigital income.  For the purposes 
of impairment testing, goodwill has been allocated to MOQ’s CGUs as follows:

The recoverable amounts were based on fair values estimated using discounted cash flows. 

The key assumptions used in the estimation of the recoverable amount are set out below. The values assigned to the key assumptions 
represents management’s assessment of future trends in the ICT industry and have been based on data from both external and internal 
sources.

The discount rate was a post-tax measure estimated based on a conservative mix of historical weighted average cost of capital and 
debt.

The cashflow projections included specific estimates for 3 years for TETRAN and 3 years for Skoolbag. The basis of estimation of the 
three-year cash flows uses the following key operating assumptions:

-  Three year budgeted EBITDA is based on management’s forecasts of revenue from its operating segments. Revenue forecasts take 

into account historical revenue and consider external factors such as market sector. 

-  Costs are calculated taking into account historical margins, known increases and estimated inflation rates over the period.

The  estimated  recoverable  amount  of  the  CGUs  exceeded  their  carrying  amounts  by  $4.1  million  for TETRAN  and  $1.67m  for 
Skoolbag. Management recognises that actual results (EBITDA) may vary to what has been estimated. Management has identified that 
a possible change in either of two key assumptions could cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount. The following 
table shows the amount by which these two assumptions would need to change individually for the estimated recoverable amount to 
be equal to the carrying amount.

Employee provisions includes the total amount accrued for annual leave entitlements and the amounts accrued for long service leave 
entitlements  that  have  vested  due  to  employees  having  completed  the  required  period  of  service.  Based  on  past  experience,  the 
company does not expect the full amount of annual leave or long service leave balances classified as current liabilities to be settled 
within  the  next  12  months.  However,  these  amounts  must  be  classified  as  current  liabilities  since  the  company  does  not  have  an 
unconditional right to defer the settlement of these amounts in the event employees wish to use their leave entitlement.

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report  

Opinion 

We  have  audited  the  financial  report  of  MOQ  Limited,  the  Company  and  its  subsidiaries  (the  Group),  which 
comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at  30 June 2019, the consolidated statement of 
profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income,  the  consolidated  statement  of  changes  in  equity  and  the 
consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including 
a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration. 

In  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  financial  report  of  the  Group  is  in  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act 
2001, including: 

(i) 

giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its financial 
performance for the year then ended; and 

(ii) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards.  Our  responsibilities  under  those 
standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of 
our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the 
Corporations  Act  2001  and  the  ethical  requirements  of  the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical  Standards 
Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the 
financial  report  in  Australia.  We  have  also  fulfilled  our  other  ethical  responsibilities  in  accordance  with  the 
Code. 

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

Key Audit Matters 

We have defined the matters described below to be key audit matters to be communicated in our report. 

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

Key Audit Matters 

How the matter was addressed in the audit 

Revenue recognition  

AASB  15  Revenue 
from  Contracts  with 
Customers  (AASB  15)  became  effective  for 
periods  beginning  on  or  after  1  July  2018.  A 
substantial  amount  of 
the  Group’s  revenue 
relates  to  revenue  from  sale  of  goods  and 
rendering

professional  services  and  managed  services). 
The Group offers many products and services to 
its  customers 
that  require  different  revenue

note 1(u) to the financial statements.

 Revenue recognition has been assessed as key 
audit  matter  due  to  the  different  recognition 
polices. 

Impairment of Goodwill 

The Group carries Goodwill totalling $13,281,938 
(refer  to  Note  14)  in  terms  of  the  application  of 
the  Group's  accounting  policy  for 
Intangible 
assets, as set out in Note 1(c). 

The  carrying  value  of  Goodwill  is  a  key  audit 
matter due to: 

  The significance of the total balance (38% 

of total assets); 

  For the CGU’s which contain goodwill, the 
determination  of 
recoverable  amount, 
being the higher of fair value less costs to 
sell  and  value-in-use,  requires  judgement 
on 
in  both 
identifying  and  then  valuing  the  relevant 
CGU’s.

  The  assessment  of  impairment  of  the 
Group’s  goodwill  balances  incorporated 
significant judgement in respect of factors 
such as discount rates and growth rates.  

A  key  audit  matter  for  us  was  whether  the 
Group’s  value  in  use  model  for  impairment 
included  appropriate  consideration  of 
these 
factors  on 
their  significant  estimates  and 
judgements  and  the  selection  of  Key  external 
and internal inputs. 

Inter alia, our audit procedures included the   following:

Recoverability of Trade Receivables  

As  at  30  June  2019,  the  Group  had  trade 
receivables and other receivables of $9,824,238.  

 Inter alia, our audit procedures included the following:

Other Information  

The  directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  the  information 
included  in  the  Group’s  annual  report  for  the  year  ended  30  June  2019,  but  does  not  include  the  financial 
report and our auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

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

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

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

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

In 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, 

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
 
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
they  could  reasonably  be  expected  to  influence  the  economic  decisions  of  users  taken  on  the  basis  of  this 
financial report. 

As part of an audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and 
maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit 
evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. 

The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material 
misstatement  of  the  financial  report,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error.  In  making  those  risk  assessments,  the 
auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and 
fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose 
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. 

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, 
as  fraud  may  involve  collusion,  forgery,  intentional  omissions,  misrepresentations,  or  the  override  of  internal 
control. 

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of 
accounting  estimates  made  by  the  Directors,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall  presentation  of  the  financial 
report. 

We conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based 
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may 
cast  significant  doubt  on  the  Group's  ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern.  If  we  conclude  that  a  material 
uncertainty  exists,  we  are  required  to  draw  attention  in  our  auditor's  report  to  the  related  disclosures  in  the 
financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the 
audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause 
the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. 

We  evaluate  the  overall  presentation,  structure  and  content  of  the  financial  report,  including  the  disclosures, 
and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves 
fair presentation. 

We obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the  financial information of the entities or business 
activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, 
supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. 

We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit 
and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in Internal control that we identify during our 
audit. 

The  Auditing  Standards  require  that  we  comply  with  relevant  ethical  requirements  relating  to  audit 
engagements.  We  also  provide  the  Directors  with  a  statement  that  we  have  complied  with  relevant  ethical 
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them  all relationships and other matters that 
may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 

From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance 
in the audit of the consolidated financial report of the current period and are therefore key audit matters. We 
describe  these  matters  in  our  auditor's  report  unless  law  or  regulation  precludes  public  disclosure  about  the 
matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in 
our  report  because  the  adverse  consequences  of  doing  so  would  reasonably  be  expected  to  outweigh  the 
public interest benefits of such communication.
