The 2015 fi nancial year was another pivotal year for nearmap, underpinned by continued growth in the Australian business as well as signifi cant progress with our international expansion into the United States. It is pleasing to note that the Australian business continued to grow in FY15 with revenue up 32% and gross profi t up 36% from the prior year. Investment in the Australian business continues as we introduced our fi rst ever marketing function, established a local management team and extended our sales capacity, all of which are driving growth in Australia. We continue to see high retention rates of customers and have laid the foundation for sustainable growth. nearmap announced its expansion into the United States in October 2014 and launched its nationwide US urban capture program, which was an exciting moment for the Company. The successful launch of the HyperCamera system, which was approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), allowed us to accelerate our offshore growth plans. The initial capture program aimed to capture 33% of the US population in FY15, more than 100M people. This target was subsequently increased to 150M people as the expansion tracked ahead of expectations due to effi ciencies achieved by using the HyperCamera technology. In the latter half of FY15, we had our fi rst commercial sales in the US which endorsed the validity of nearmap’s value add and competitive offering. I am pleased with the progress we have made to date on the expansion into the US. We have been able to build a new operation from the ground up and have established the foundation for growth which has included opening three offi ces across the US and hiring local sales, marketing and fl ight operations teams. As a result, we have recorded thousands of registered users and generated our fi rst sales ahead of guidance, which is a testament to the dedication of the team and strategic drive from management. Our balance sheet remains strong with no debt and a healthy cash balance of $17.2M as at year end. Our growth in Australia and effective management of our balance sheet has allowed us to fund the US expansion internally. We continue to invest in new technology and product development to further enhance our imagery and our offering to customers. In Australia, we increased market penetration in high value verticals and successfully launched nearmap Insurance and nearmap Construction. In FY16, we plan to launch the HyperCamera2 aerial camera system, which will add capability to capture multi-directional oblique views as well as high-resolution digital elevation models. This breakthrough technology is exciting and will further solidify our foothold in the market as a leader in high-resolution aerial imagery. 6 2015 Annual Report 2015 Annual Report 6 Chairman’s Letter Details on our performance for the year, including the CEO's report and full set of fi nancial results, can be found in the sections following and I encourage you to read them. In conclusion, I would like to thank our CEO, Simon Crowther, together with his executive team of Gerhard Beukes, Paul Lapstun and Paul Peterson and congratulate them on their success. It is not easy to take a start-up company to the next level and begin to build an international business and the team has worked tirelessly this year to deliver on strategic and operational goals. I would like to thank my fellow Directors and our staff for their contributions and commitment to nearmap. I look forward to the exciting year ahead. Ross Norgard Chairman Sydney 14 October 2015 2015 Annual Report 2015 Annual Report 7 7 Chairman’s Letter Pentagon, Washington, DC, United States – April 2015 “Over the last 12 months we have continued to invest ahead of the growth curve through strategic focus on creating unique patented technology, automated highly scalable systems and key talent. We embarked upon our international expansion in the United States signing our fi rst customers ahead of schedule and continue to grow the profi tability of our Australian business.” The market opportunity is to continue to advance up the value chain offering our customers analytics and data mining capabilities that fuse our unique PhotoMap capability with compelling data sets. We will offer unique insights about their business, customers, sector, industry and operating environment. We can demonstrate to customers the positive return on investment a nearmap subscription provides and embed ourselves intuitively within workfl ows and industry platforms. The step into the US market in October 2014 was undertaken after careful evaluation of the market opportunity. In parallel, we embarked upon the development of HyperCamera2 an entirely new aerial surveying system in order to unlock the potential of the US market long term. We also undertook signifi cant updates to our platform to enable us to monetise our content effectively. These decisions were made in order to maximise shareholder value over the long term and position nearmap effectively for future international growth. Mr Simon Crowther Chief Executive Offi cer The 2015 fi nancial year was again a pivotal year for nearmap. We increased the profi tability of our Australian business, hired an entirely new management team in Australia and commenced our international expansion plans. The year refl ected the tale of two regions – the continued growth of the Australian business and the set up of a completely new operation in the United States. The long-term strategy for the Company is underpinned by the continued investment in research and development, systems and people. The goal is to complete the evolution from aerial mapping operation using prototype fi rst generation technology to become a visual analytics business utilising proprietary next generation capture capabilities.

I would like to say thank you to all my teammates for their hard work and enthusiasm. My commitment to Human Resources and our people is absolute as is my commitment to never accepting average as the standard within nearmap. I am excited by the career growth opportunities we can increasingly offer our team as we grow our international presence. Start-up businesses require highly motivated, talented individuals with a high work ethic and domain expertise to be world class. Building an international business from scratch takes time, patience, resilience and the support of a core group of people and I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to my Executive Team who have worked tirelessly over recent years to put the Company in the position to scale. We have moved out of the start-up phase and are fi rmly focused on building a scalable business and attracting and retaining key talent. In order to achieve this we have established a Global Human Resources function supported by an Australian HR Director. These highly experienced HR professionals are tasked with building an inclusive and winning culture and ensuring over time all our colleagues feel rewarded and supported in their roles. 14 14 CEO’s Report CEO’s Report CEO’s Report 14 “ Achieving exceptional performance from a comparably small group of people is key to our future success.” CEO’s Report 15 nearmap Team 2015 nearmap Team 2015 16 16 CEO’s Report CEO’s Report nearmap Team 2015 16 CEO’s Report “We are focused on automating our systems for scalability and it is a critical part of our strategy to automate as many processes as possible.” During the year we commenced the development and implementation of our next generation systems known internally as ‘Global Customer Management’ (GCM). This is a key part of our strategy to operate automated and scalable systems using best of breed cloud based tools and applications such as Tableau, Zuora, HubSpot and Salesforce. The fi rst phase of GCM was introduced successfully in the US during the year and will be implemented during the fi rst half of FY15/16 in Australia. These new improved systems will provide our entire organisation with enhanced insight and reporting capabilities, automated marketing and lead nurturing all integrating seamlessly with our CRM and data visualisation systems. GCM has been developed and deployed in order to support our coordinated Go-To-Market activities. Image: Elizabeth Quay progress, Perth, Western Australia, Australia – September 2015 18 CEO’s Report Increased investment in scalable systems Elizabeth Quay progress, Perth, Western Australia, Australia – September 2015 “Execution is key. We have established the Go-To-Market (GTM) function to co-ordinate 3 key pillars: Sales, Marketing and Product Marketing in each market so we achieve alignment and effective feedback loops.” Key to successful execution and scaling is the coordination of the commercial planning of the business. We have aspirations to be a multinational organisation, which involves both complex decision-making and rapid action. GTM facilitates this by coordinating sales, marketing and product marketing ensuring each team is aligned, understands the mission and focused on key priorities. GTM acts as both central coordinator and feedback loop to ensure we are constantly reviewing operations and improving products and commercial activity.

It’s in our DNA and we have a world-class team lead by CTO Paul Lapstun.” HyperCamera was the precursor and test pilot that underpinned HyperCamera2 which at the time of writing has completed successful testing. We will offer signifi cantly enhanced outputs particularly oblique photography, elevation data and 3D modelling. HyperCamera2 is key to nearmap maintaining our competitive advantage, evolving toward being an analytics business, upgrading the functionality of our tools and applications such as nearmap Solar and productising new features and capabilities. During the year we made signifi cant progress in terms of the development of our next generation surveying capability. Importantly we secured US Patents for HyperCamera and HyperCamera2 whilst demonstrating the scalability of our operations by establishing a fl ight operations base in Fairfax Virginia US and capturing 160m people from scratch. We are focused on innovation and protecting our intellectual property. HyperCamera enabled us to scale into the US in a controlled and cost effective manner. This was an important step, primarily designing a sensor that operated inside the aircraft thereby minimising the need for Aviation compliance and broadening our access to different surveying aircraft.

In parallel, we successfully developed an entirely new hardware system to support our international growth, secured important US Patents and made strategic investments in our platform to support scalability and digital marketing. The team grew during this period and we increased the role of Human Resources inside the business resulting in achieving 85% employee satisfaction. The retention and churn of our employees remains comfortably within industry standards and we are committed to being an employee of choice as we mature as an organisation. S.

Directors’ Report Directors’ Report 35 35 Directors’ Report Remuneration Report (Audited) This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for Directors and key management personnel of nearmap ltd (the Company) and the consolidated entity (the Group). The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings: A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration B. Details of remuneration C. Employment contracts D. Share based compensation E. Transactions of key management personnel F. Additional information G. Shares under option The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001. A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration Remuneration philosophy The performance of the Company depends upon the quality of its Directors and executives. To prosper, the Company must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled Directors and executives. To this end, the Company embodies the following principles in its remuneration framework: –Provide competitive rewards to attract high calibre executives; –Link executive rewards to shareholder value; and –Establish appropriate, demanding performance hurdles in relation to variable executive remuneration. Nomination and Remuneration Committee The Nomination and Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors, the Chief Executive Offi cer and the senior management team and ensuring that the Board continues to operate within the established guidelines, including when necessary, selecting candidates for the position of Director. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of Directors and key management personnel on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefi t from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team. The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst Directors is reviewed annually. (i) Services from remuneration consultants The Board considers advice from external consultants as well as the fees paid to Non-Executive Directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process. In FY15 the Nomination and Remuneration Committee engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) as remuneration consultant to benchmark the remuneration of the Chief Executive Offi cer and his direct reports as well as the fees provided to nearmap’s Non-Executive Directors against comparable peers and provide recommendations. PwC was paid $32,640 for the remuneration benchmarking analysis and recommendations. A letter of engagement confi rmed that any advice provided must be free from undue infl uence by the member or members of the key management personnel to whom any recommendations relate and sets out the processes to be followed in requesting information from, and from providing reports to, the Company to ensure that these obligations are met. The Board is satisfi ed that the remuneration outcomes were free from undue infl uence by any key management personnel on the basis that the processes described above were followed and were designed to ensure such an outcome. 36 Directors’ Report Directors’ Report 36 Fixed Remuneration Objective The level of fi xed remuneration is set so as to provide a base level of remuneration which is both appropriate to the position and is competitive in the market. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the process consists of a review of individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration in the market and internal and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. Increases were approved by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee for the Chief Executive Offi cer and all other key management personnel to receive an increase in base salaries effective 1 March 2015. Structure Senior executives are given the opportunity to receive their fi xed (primary) remuneration in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefi ts such as motor vehicles and expense payment plans. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Company. Directors’ Report Remuneration Report (Audited) A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (cont.) Remuneration structure In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of Non-Executive Director and key management personnel remuneration is separate and distinct. Non-Executive Director remuneration Objective The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain Directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders. Structure The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of Non-Executive Directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount determined is then divided between the Directors as agreed. The latest determination was at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on 21 November 2008 when shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of $300,000 per year. Increases were approved by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee for Rob Newman and Cliff Rosenberg to receive an increase in Non-Executive Director fees to $70,000 effective 1 March 2015. Voting and comments made at the Company’s 2014 Annual General Meeting The Company received only 4.76% “no” votes on its remuneration report for the 2014 fi nancial year. The Company did not receive any specifi c feedback at the AGM or throughout the year on its remuneration practices. Each Director receives a fee for being a Director of the Company. A further fee is paid where additional time commitment is required like that being required by the Chairman of the Company. Key management personnel and executive Director remuneration Objective The Company aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Company and so as to: –Reward executives and individual performance against key performance indicators; –Align the interests of executives with those of shareholders; –Link reward with the strategic goals and performance of the Company; and –Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards. Structure Remuneration typically consists of the following key elements: –Fixed remuneration –Variable remuneration –Short term incentive (STI); and –Long term incentive (LTI). The proportion of fi xed remuneration and variable remuneration (potential short term and long term incentives) is established for each key management personnel by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Directors’ Report Directors’ Report 37 37 Structure LTI grants to employees are delivered in the form of options and the amount is determined by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee having regard to: –the seniority of the relevant Eligible Person and the position the Eligible Person occupies within the Company; –the length of service of the Eligible Person with the Company; –the record of employment of the Eligible Person with the Company; –the potential contribution of the Eligible Person to the growth of the Company; –the extent (if any) of the existing participation of the Eligible Person (or any Permitted Nominee in relation to that Eligible Person) in the Plan; and –any other matters which the Board considers relevant. Directors’ Report Remuneration Report (Audited) A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (cont.) Variable Remuneration — Short Term Incentive (STI) Objective The objective of the STI program is to link the achievement of the Company’s operational targets with the remuneration received by the employees charged with meeting those targets. The total potential STI where available is set at a level so as to provide suffi cient incentive to employees to achieve the operational targets and such that the cost to the Company is reasonable in the circumstances. Structure Actual STI payments granted to each employee depend on the extent to which specifi c operating targets set are met. The operational targets consist of a number of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) covering both fi nancial and non-fi nancial measures of performance. Typically included are measures such as contribution to net profi t after tax, customer management and leadership/team contribution. On an annual basis, after consideration of performance against KPIs, an overall performance rating for the Company and each individual’s performance is made and is taken into account when determining the amount, if any, of the short term incentive pool to be allocated to each employee. The aggregate of annual STI payments available for employees across the Company is subject to the approval of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Payments made are usually delivered as a cash bonus. However, STI payments are subject to discretion by the Board based on performance at the end of the year. Variable Remuneration – Long Term Incentive (LTI) Objective The objective of the LTI plan is to reward employees in a manner which aligns this element of remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth. Options are granted with a strike price of 143% of the share price prevailing at the time of the grant. Executives are therefore required to achieve a fi xed increase in share price of more than 43% before any value attracts to the individual. The options have a 4 year term and a service vesting condition of 1 year for 50% of each tranche granted and 2 years for the second 50% tranche. There are no performance related vesting conditions. The Board believes that this is a challenging fi xed target in share price over the option term and is therefore an appropriate mechanism to align company performance with that of the individual. An employee loan scheme arrangement exists should an employee elect to apply for a loan on exercise of options, which may be granted subject to Nomination and Remuneration Committee discretion. 38 Directors’ Report Directors’ Report 38 Directors’ Report Remuneration Report (Audited) A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (cont.) Group performance The overall level of executive reward takes into account the nature of the technology commercialisation business and realistic timeframes for generating profi ts. In particular, executive rewards recognise the commercialisation of the nearmap business and future shareholder wealth contained therein and progress in unlocking the value created to date. Executive performance of the Group has been reviewed over the past 5 years taking into account future shareholder wealth and profi t performance. In considering the Group’s performance and benefi ts for shareholder wealth, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee has given regard to the following indices in respect of the current fi nancial year over the last 5 fi nancial years.

Directors’ Report Directors’ Report 41 41 Directors’ Report Remuneration Report (Audited) C. Employment contracts All executive employees and key management personnel are employed under contract. All executives have ongoing contracts and as such only have commencement dates and no expiry dates. Details of key management personnel and executives contracts as at 30 June 2015 are: Name S Crowther G Beukes P Lapstun P Peterson Notice period for termination at will 6 months 4 months 4 months 4 months Notice period for termination at cause 6 months 4 months 4 months 4 months –On resignation any unvested options are forfeited. Limited recourse loans are only granted to key management personnel in respect of vested options, therefore the loans are not subject to cancellation on resignation. –The Company may terminate an employment agreement by providing the respective written notice period or provide payment in lieu of the notice period (based on the fi xed component of remuneration). On such termination by the Company, any LTI options that have vested, or will vest during the notice period will be required to be exercised within 180 days from termination date (unless agreed otherwise by the Company) or their options expiry date if earlier. LTI options that have not yet vested will be forfeited. –The Company may terminate an employment contract at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred. Where termination with cause occurs, the employee is only entitled to that portion of remuneration which is fi xed, and only up to the date of termination. On termination with cause any unvested options will immediately be forfeited. –If an employee ceases to be employed by the Company (including by way of resignation, retirement, dismissal, etc) and has an outstanding limited recourse loan, the employee may elect to have the Company sell the loan shares and apply the net proceeds of the sale in repayment of the loan or repay the outstanding amount on the loan. This determination must be made within 1 month of the date of ceased employment. –There are no formal contracts between the Company and Non-Executive Directors in relation to remuneration other than the letter of appointment that stipulates the remuneration as at the commencement date. 42 Directors’ Report Directors’ Report 42 Directors’ Report Remuneration Report (Audited) D. Share based compensation Options A share option incentive scheme has been established whereby Directors and certain employees of the Group may be issued with options over the ordinary shares of the Company. The options, which are usually issued for nil consideration at an exercise price calculated with reference to prevailing market prices and a 43% premium thereon are issued in accordance with performance guidelines established by the Directors of the Company. The options are issued for terms of up to 4 years and are exercisable on various dates (usually in 2 equal annual tranches when vested) within 4 years from the issue date. The options only vest under certain conditions, principally centred on the employee still being employed, or the Director still engaged, at the time of vesting (that is, once the service has been satisfi ed). The options cannot be transferred without the approval of the Company’s Board and are not quoted on the ASX. As a result plan participants may not enter into any transaction designed to remove the “at risk” aspect of an option before it is exercised. Options were issued during the year ended 30 June 2015, refer to the table below and note 6 per the fi nancial statements for details. Limited recourse loans (LRL) nearmap’s Employee Share Option Plan includes an Employee Loan Scheme that permits nearmap to grant fi nancial assistance to employees by way of limited recourse loans to enable them to exercise options and acquire shares. Interest on the loans is payable by key management personnel at loan maturity and accrues daily at the Australian Taxation Offi ce approved rate for the purposes of the fringe benefi t tax provisions. Loans are repayable three years after the issue date subject to the total share value being greater that the loan’s principal plus accrued interest. Compensation options Each option entitles the holder to subscribe for one fully paid ordinary share in the entity at an exercise price determined at a 43% premium to the market price of the shares on the date of grant. When an individual is granted a LRL to exercise their option, the effect is to extend the life of the original option and exercise price (in that interest accrues over the term of the loan).

Additional information The Company has applied fair value measurement provisions of AASB 2 Share-based Payment for all options and LRLs granted to Directors and employees. The fair value of such grants is being amortised and disclosed as part of Director and employee remuneration on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Options granted as part of Director and employee remuneration has been valued using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, which takes account of factors including the option exercise price, the current level and volatility of the underlying share price, the risk-free interest rate, expected dividends on the underlying share, current market price of the underlying share and the expected life of the option. LRLs have also been valued using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

Basis of preparation In this section: This section sets out the basis upon which the Group’s fi nancial statements are prepared as a whole. Specifi c accounting policies are described in their respective notes to the fi nancial statements. This section also shows information on new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations, and whether they are effective in 2015 or later years. We explain how these changes are expected to impact the fi nancial position and performance of the Group. 1. Reporting entity nearmap ltd is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian stock exchange. The Company’s registered offi ce is at Level 6, 6–8 Underwood Street, Sydney, NSW 2000. These consolidated fi nancial statements as at 30 June 2015 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred as the ‘Group’ and individually ‘Group entities’). The Group is a for-profi t entity and the nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ report. The Group is primarily involved in the provision of online PhotoMap content via its 100% owned subsidiaries nearmap Australia Pty Ltd and nearmap US Inc. The consolidated fi nancial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 24 August 2015. 2. Signifi cant accounting policies Signifi cant accounting policies have been moved next to the respective note disclosure. Other relevant policies are in this section. (a) Basis of accounting The consolidated fi nancial statements are general purpose fi nancial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. 56 Financial Report Financial Report 56 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 A. Basis of preparation 2. Signifi cant accounting policies (cont.) (a) Basis of accounting (cont.) The consolidated fi nancial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The consolidated fi nancial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention. The fi nancial statements are presented in Australian dollars. The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Class Order 98/100 dated 10 July 1998 and in accordance with the Class Order, amounts in consolidated fi nancial statements have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated. (b) Changes in accounting policies and new standards and interpretations not yet adopted The Group has adopted the following new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and AASB Interpretations as of 1 July 2014: AASB 2012-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities AASB 2013-3 Amendments to AASB 136 – Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-fi nancial Assets AASB 2013-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting AASB 2013-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Investment Entities IFRIC 21 - Levies AASB 2013-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Conceptual Framework, Materiality and Financial Instruments AASB 2014-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Part A: Annual Improvements 2010-2012 and 2011-2013 Cycles AASB 2014-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Part B: Defi ned Benefi t Plans: Employee Contributions AASB 2014-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Part C: Materiality ASX Corporate Governance Council Principles and Recommendations (Third Edition) Corporations Legislation Amendment (Deregulatory and Other Measures) Act 2015 There has been no material impact on the fi nancial statements of the Group. A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2015, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated fi nancial statements. None of these are expected to have a signifi cant effect on the consolidated fi nancial statements of the Group, except for AASB 9 Financial Instruments which becomes mandatory for the Group’s 2016 consolidated fi nancial statements and could change the classifi cation and measurement of fi nancial instruments. The Group does not plan to adopt this standard early and the extent of the impact has not been determined. (c) Basis of consolidation The fi nancial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. In preparing the consolidated fi nancial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profi t and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company 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. The fi nancial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated fi nancial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. When the Company ceases to have control, joint control or signifi cant infl uence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profi t or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, jointly controlled entity or fi nancial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Company had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassifi ed to profi t or loss. Financial Report Financial Report 57 57 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction. Foreign currency differences are generally recognised in profi t or loss. However, foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the following item is recognised in other comprehensive income: –qualifying cash fl ow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective. (ii) Foreign operations The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars at the exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the translation reserve. 3. Other confi rmations Contingent liabilities As at 30 June 2015, the Directors are not aware of any contingent liabilities in relation to the Company or the Group. Subsequent events There were no matters or circumstances specifi c to the Company or the Group that have arisen since 30 June 2015 that have signifi cantly affected or may signifi cantly affect: –the Company or Group’s operations in future years; –the results of those operations in future fi nancial years; or –the Company or Group’s state of affairs in future fi nancial years. Related parties Other than the loans granted under the employee loan scheme as disclosed in note 6 per the fi nancial statements, there have been no sales, purchases or other transactions with related parties during the year ended 30 June 2015 (year ended 30 June 2014: nil).

Signifi cant accounting policies (d) Signifi cant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions The carrying amount of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key judgments and estimates which are material to the fi nancial report are found in the following notes: –Note 6(i): Share-based payments –Note 7: Income tax –Note 11: Intangibles (e) Foreign currencies (i) Foreign currency transactions Both the functional and presentation currency of the Company and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars (A$). Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the fi nancial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency at the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. 58 Financial Report Financial Report 58 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 B. Key fi nancial results In this section: This section explains the results and performance of nearmap ltd and provides additional information about those individual line items in the fi nancial statements that the Directors consider most relevant in the context of the operations of the entity, including: (a) Accounting policies that are relevant for understanding the items recognised in the fi nancial statements. (b) Analysis of the Group’s result for the year by reference to key areas, including: segment results and revenue, operational expenses, personnel costs including share-based payments and income tax. 4. Segment results and revenue This note provides results by operating segment for the year ended 30 June 2015. Operating segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker has been identifi ed as the Chief Executive Offi cer who ultimately makes strategic decisions. This note also provides additional information on revenue, including types of revenue and the respective recognition criteria. Segment reporting During the year ended 30 June 2015, the Group changed its internal organisation and the composition of its reportable segments in light of the recent expansion into the United States. Accordingly, the Group has restated the operating segment information for the year ended 30 June 2014. The change in operating segments does not result in any change to the reported profi t for the Group on prior periods. An overview of the new operating segments is provided below. Segment Australia United States Corporate Information Responsible for all sales and marketing efforts in Australia. Responsible for all sales and marketing efforts in the United States. Holds all the IP and product “know-how” which allows nearmap to deliver its product offering, being online aerial photomapping. The segment facilitates the day to day survey operations globally. Cost of revenue includes all the costs directly attributable to the ongoing delivery of the subscription product, including amortisation of capture costs and technology costs. Sales and marketing costs include direct in-country costs. General and administration for Corporate represent all operating expenses and product design and uncapitalised development expenses. Royalties for the Corporate segment are derived from the regions and are determined based on a percentage of subscription revenue. The royalty owed by the regions is offset by royalties derived from Corporate which are based on a percentage of capture costs. The assets and liabilities of the Group are reported and reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker in total and not allocated by operating segment. Therefore, operating segment assets and liabilities are not disclosed. Financial Report Financial Report 59 59 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 B.

Key fi nancial results 4. Segment results and revenue (cont.) Accounting policy – revenue recognition and measurement Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefi ts will fl ow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specifi c revenue recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: Subscription revenue Subscription revenue is recognised over the life of the contract in line with when the signifi cant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, recovery of the consideration is probable, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. The timing of the transfer of risks and rewards varies depending on the individual terms of the subscription agreement. On-demand revenue On-demand revenue is recognised in accordance with the percentage of completion method. The stage of completion is measured by reference to the percentage area captured to date as a percentage of the total estimated capture area for each contract. Other income Other income consists of interest income of $593k (2014: $512k) and R&D grant income of $1,829k (2014: $1,711k). At June 2015, other income also includes New South Wales payroll grant income of $76k (2014: nil). Interest income is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. For additional information regarding the R&D tax incentive, see note 7: Income tax. Unearned revenue Prepaid amounts received from customers in advance are deferred to the relevant future subscription agreement periods. Unearned revenue comprises photo mapping subscription license service fees charged, the revenue for which is primarily recognised in the profi t or loss over the subscription period. Unearned revenue at 30 June 2015 was $15,726k (2014: $13,403K). 5.

Personnel expenses Personnel disclosures include information on (i) share-based payments, (ii) employee benefi ts expense and (iii) key management personnel. (i) Share-based payments An Employee Share Option Plan has been established whereby Directors and certain employees of the consolidated entity may be issued with options over the ordinary shares of the Company.

Key fi nancial results 6. Personnel expenses (cont.) (i) Share-based payments (cont.) The options, which are usually issued for nil consideration at an exercise price calculated with reference to prevailing market prices, are issued in accordance with terms established by the Directors of the Company. The options are generally issued for 4 years and are exercisable on various dates (usually in 2 equal annual tranches when vested) within 4 years from the issue date. The options cannot be transferred without the approval of the Company’s board and are not quoted on the ASX. nearmap’s Employee Share Option Plan also includes an Employee Loan Scheme that permits nearmap to grant fi nancial assistance to employees by way of limited recourse loans to enable them to exercise options and acquire shares. Key estimates and judgments The Group estimates the fair value of equity-settled transactions (share options and limited recourse loans (LRL)) at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes model and includes assumptions in the following areas: risk free rate, volatility and estimated service periods. The expected life of the options is based on historical data and not necessarily indicative of exercise patters than may occur. The expected volatility refl ects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may also not necessarily be actual outcome. No other features of options granted were incorporated into the measurement of fair value. There are no voting or dividend rights attached to the options. Accounting policy - recognition and measurement of share-based payments In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of the Company (‘market conditions’) if applicable. The fair value of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with the corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfi lled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (‘vesting period’). The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date refl ects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The profi t or loss charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised at the beginning and end of that period. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition. A modifi cation of terms of share-based payment transactions occurs when the Board accepts a loan request submitted by an employee of the Group to exercise fully vested options under the Employee Loan Scheme through a LRL in lieu of cash payment of the exercise price. Since the terms of an equity-settled award are modifi ed, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modifi ed. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modifi cation that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise benefi cial to the employee, as measured at the date of modifi cation. If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modifi cation of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph. The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is refl ected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share. 62 Financial Report Financial Report 62 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 B.

Income tax Key estimates and judgments Deferred tax Pursuant to AASB 112 Income Taxes, the Company has assessed its best estimate of the probability that future taxable profi ts will be available against which the Group can utilise its unused tax losses and deductible temporary differences in future periods. Income tax Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for fi nancial reporting purposes. Accounting policy - recognition and measurement of income tax Research and development tax incentive The Group accounts for the benefi t of refundable research and development tax incentives as government grant income, which is recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions that attach to the incentive and that it will be received. The income is recognised in Other Income on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises the related research and development expense. The Group accounts for any non-refundable research and development tax credits as an income tax benefi t. Financial Report Financial Report 65 65 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 Tax consolidation The Company and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation. The head entity, nearmap ltd, and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated Group account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated Group continues to be a standalone taxpayer in its own right. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the Company also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated Group. B. Key fi nancial results 7. Income tax (cont.) Accounting policy - recognition and measurement of income tax (cont.) Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences: –except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profi t nor taxable profi t or loss; and –in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profi t will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry- forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised: –except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profi t nor taxable profi t or loss; and –in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profi t will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that suffi cient taxable profi t will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profi t will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the profi t and loss. 66 Financial Report Financial Report 66 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 B.

Capital structure and fi nancial risk management In this section: This section outlines how nearmap manages its capital structure and discusses the Group’s exposure to various fi nancial risks and how the Group manages these risks. Capital Risk Management The Group’s objective in managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so it can continue to commercialise intellectual property with the ultimate objective of providing returns to shareholders while maintaining an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure the Company may issue new shares, sell assets, consider joint ventures and may return capital in some form to shareholders. 8. Contributed equity Ordinary shares are classifi ed as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. 2015 2014 Movement in shares on issue Balance at the beginning of the year Issue of shares during the year Issued from exercise of share options Issued from exercise of loan share options Balance at the end of the year Number of shares 337,346,101 - 6,050,000 12,100,000 355,496,101 $,000 27,113 - 508 - 27,621 Number of shares 323,056,101 290,000 5,100,000 8,900,000 337,346,101 $,000 26,536 99 478 - 27,113 Details in relation to share option movements and the share incentive scheme are contained in note 6.

Financial Report Financial Report 69 69 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 C. Capital structure and fi nancial risk management 9. Financial instruments – fair value and risk management Accounting policy – derivative fi nancial instruments and hedge accounting The Group holds derivative fi nancial instruments to hedge its foreign currency risk exposures. These derivative instruments are designated as cash fl ow hedging instruments. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised in OCI and accumulated in the hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivatives is immediately recognised in profi t or loss. The amount accumulated in equity is retained in OCI and reclassifi ed to profi t or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects profi t or loss. Accounting policy – fi nancial instruments carried at fair value The fair value of fi nancial assets and fi nancial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The fair value of these instruments is categorised into different levels of the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows: Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can assess at the measurement date. Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period which the transfer has occurred. The Group’s principal fi nancial instruments comprise cash, short-term deposits and derivatives. The Group is primarily exposed to the following risks arising from fi nancial instruments: –Market risk, particularly in relation to foreign currencies (see ii); –Credit risk (see iii). This note provides information about the Group’s exposure to the above risks and its objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing those risks. (i) Risk management framework The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. The Board of Directors have established the Audit and Risk Management Committee which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies are reviewed regularly to refl ect changes in the market and the Group’s activities. 70 Financial Report Financial Report 70 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 C.

(ii) Market Risk Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices – such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates – will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of fi nancial instruments. The Group uses derivatives to manage market risk related to foreign currencies. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines of the Group’s risk management policies. Currency risk The Group’s functional currency is the Australian dollar (AUD) and it is exposed to currency risk on payments denominated in the United States dollar (USD). The Group uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk, all of which have a maturity of less than six months from the reporting date. The currency risk relating to payments denominated in USD have been fully hedged, with the forward exchange contracts maturing on the same dates that the forecast payments are expected to occur. These contracts are designated as cash fl ow hedges. In respect of other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Group’s policy is to ensure the net exposure is kept to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary. Exposure to currency risk The summary quantitative data about the Group’s exposure to currency risk is as follows: Cash and cash equivalents Receivables and other assets Payables and other liabilities Gross exposure Consolidated 2015 US$’000 2,110 344 980 3,434 2014 US$’000 1,130 - 95 1,225 The following signifi cant exchange rates applied during the year: USD Average rate 2015 0.8382 2014 0.9187 Reporting date spot rate 2015 0.7680 2014 0.9420 Financial Report Financial Report 71 71 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 C. Capital structure and fi nancial risk management 9. Financial instruments – fair value and risk management (cont.) Sensitivity analysis A 10 percent strengthening or weakening of the Australian to US dollar exchange rate would have increased / (decreased) the net assets denominated in foreign currencies by the following amounts: +10% -10% Consolidated 2015 $’000 (174) 213 2014 $’000 (94) 115 Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to changes in interest rates as it relates to the Company’s short-term deposits. The Company monitors changes in interest rates regularly to ensure the best possible return on deposits. Changes to interest rates in this context are not considered a signifi cant fi nancial risk. (iii) Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of fi nancial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a fi nancial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers and forward exchange contracts. The Group trades primarily with recognised, creditworthy third parties. Trade and other receivables The Group’s exposure to credit risk is infl uenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis, with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not signifi cant. Cash and cash equivalents The Group held cash and cash equivalents with bank and fi nancial institution counterparties which are rated BBB or above. Derivatives The forward exchange contracts are entered into with bank institutions which are rated BBB or above and are authorised in accordance with our Foreign Exchange Risk Management Policy. The carrying amount of the Group’s fi nancial assets represents maximum credit exposure and is as follows: Cash and cash equivalents Trade receivables Prepayments and other receivables Consolidated 2015 $’000 17,169 4,316 3,540 2014 $’000 23,347 2,670 625 72 Financial Report Financial Report 72 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 C. Capital structure and fi nancial risk management 9. Financial instruments – fair value and risk management (cont.) Accounting policy – 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. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 7–60 days. The Group does not rely on any major customers. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account for impairment is used when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms (such as signifi cant fi nancial diffi culties of the debtor, probability of bankruptcy, etc). The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in profi t or loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance has been recognised becomes uncollectible 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 the income statement. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter diffi culty in meeting the obligations associated with its fi nancial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another fi nancial asset. The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and fl exibility through the use of its cash and funding requirements. The Group continually monitors forecast and actual cash fl ows and the maturity profi les of assets and liabilities to manage its liquidity risk. (iv) Fair values The fair values of fi nancial assets and fi nancial liabilities, together with the carrying amounts in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, at 30 June 2015 is detailed below. There were no fi nancial assets or liabilities measured at fair value for the period ended 30 June 2014. Financial assets Forward exchange contracts used for hedging1 $’000 Carrying amount 57 $’000 Fair value 57 1 The forward exchange contracts are not quoted in active markets as they are not traded on a recognised exchange. Instead, the Group uses valuation techniques (present value techniques) which use both observable and unobservable market inputs. As these fi nancial instruments use valuation techniques with unobservable inputs that are not signifi cant to the overall valuation, these instruments are included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the year-ended 30 June 2015. The Group has not disclosed the fair values for fi nancial instruments such as short-term trade receivables and payables because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of fair values. 10. Dividends paid on ordinary shares No dividends were paid or proposed for the year ending 30 June 2015 (2014: nil). Franking credit balance The amount of franking credits available for the subsequent fi nancial year are: Franking account balance as at the beginning of the fi nancial year at 30% (2014: 30%) Franking credits utilised through the receipt of R&D credits as at the end of the fi nancial year Consolidated 2015 $’000 - - - - 2014 $’000 - 907 (907) - Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the fi nancial year but not distributed at the reporting date. Financial Report Financial Report 73 73 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 D. Investing activities In this section: This section outlines nearmap’s investment in intangible assets and property, plant and equipment as well as a broader discussion on the entity’s cash fl ows. 11. Intangibles Key estimates and judgments Capture costs Pursuant to AASB 138 Intangible Assets, the Company has assessed its best estimate of the probability that the expected future economic benefi ts attributable to the Group’s digital imagery will fl ow to the entity. As a result, capture costs directly attributable and necessary to create and upload digital imagery online have been recognised as an intangible asset. Capture costs capitalised are being amortised over a period of 5 years. Amortisation of capture costs has been included within ‘depreciation and amortisation expenses’ in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Impairment of assets The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluation of conditions specifi c to the Group that may lead to 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, including forecasting of profi ts, cash fl ows, and discount rates. Accounting policy - impairment of assets The Group assesses at each reporting period whether there is an indication that an asset (other than goodwill or intangibles with indefi nite useful life) may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash infl ows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the assets value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash fl ows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that refl ects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specifi c to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease). An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in estimate used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised in the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profi t or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. 74 Financial Report Financial Report 74 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 D. Investing activities 11. Intangibles (cont.) Accounting policy - recognition and measurement of intangibles Research and development costs Intangible assets acquired separately are capitalised at cost and those arising from a business combination are capitalised at fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, the cost model is applied to the class of intangible assets. The amortisation period and method for intangible assets are reviewed at least annually to determine if the useful lives should be changed. Where there is an expectation that the period or method does not match the consumption of the economic benefi ts embedded within the asset, the useful life of the asset will be amended to refl ect this change. Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists, and in the case of intangibles under development impairment is tested annually or at each reporting period where an indicator exists, at the cash-generating unit level. Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the profi t or loss when the asset is derecognised. Research costs and costs that do not meet the defi nition of development costs for the purpose of the standard are expensed as incurred. An intangible asset arising from development expenditure on an internal project is recognised only when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefi ts, the availability of resources to complete the development and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Any expenditure so capitalised is amortised over the period of expected benefi t from the related project. The carrying value of an intangible asset arising from development expenditure is tested for impairment annually when the asset is not yet available for use or more frequently when an indication of impairment rises during the reporting period. A summary of the amortisation applied to the Group's intangible assets is as follows: Development costs, patents, capture costs and licences Useful lives Finite (generally for a period of 5–20 years). Amortisation method used Amortised over the period of expected future benefi t. The expected useful life is reviewed annually. Internally generated or acquired Acquired and internally generated. Impairment testing Annually as at 30 June for assets not yet available for use and more frequently when an indication of impairment exists. The patents and licences have been granted or are expected to be granted for a minimum of 20 years by the relevant government agency with the option of renewal without signifi cant cost at the end of this period provided that the Group meets certain predetermined targets. Accordingly, the patents and licences have been determined to have fi nite useful lives. Financial Report Financial Report 75 75 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 D. Investing activities 11. Intangibles (cont.) Goodwill Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifi able assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired. All goodwill acquired through business combinations has been allocated to the nearmap.com cash generating unit. The recoverable amount of the nearmap.com cash generating unit has been determined based on a value-in-use calculation using cash fl ow projections based on board approved budgets and a 4 year forecast period approved by senior management. No impairment was recognised at 30 June 2015 (2014: nil).

Investing activities 12. Plant and equipment Accounting policy – plant and equipment Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Depreciation is calculated over the estimated useful life of the assets, between 2 and 10 years, on a straight line basis. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each fi nancial year end. (i) De-recognition and disposal An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefi ts are expected from its use or disposal.

Expenditure commitments Accounting policy – leases The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfi lment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specifi c asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the profi t or loss on a straight line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives are recognised in the income statement as an integral part of the total lease expense.

On behalf of the Board S Crowther Chief Executive Offi cer Sydney 24 August 2015 82 Financial Report Financial Report 82 Independent auditor’s report to the members of nearmap Ltd Report on the fi nancial report We have audited the accompanying fi nancial report of nearmap Ltd (the Company), which comprises the consolidated statement of fi nancial position as at 30 June 2015, and consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash fl ows for the year ended on that date, notes 1 to 18 comprising a summary of signifi cant accounting policies and other explanatory information and the Directors’ declaration of the Group comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the fi nancial year. Directors’ responsibility for the fi nancial report The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the fi nancial 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 fi nancial report that is free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error. In note 2(a), the Directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the fi nancial statements of the Group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Auditor’s responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the fi nancial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the fi nancial report is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the fi nancial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the fi nancial 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 fi nancial 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. 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 fi nancial report. We performed the procedures to assess whether in all material respects the fi nancial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards, a true and fair view which is consistent with our understanding of the Group’s fi nancial position and of their performance. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is suffi cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Independence In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
