Data & Insights, powered by technology
We believe in a world where consumers have access to more of 
what they want, and businesses have the opportunity to  
connect with more of the people that matter.

Our platform helps businesses identify, connect and engage 
with consumers as part of a mutually beneficial relationship.

deep consumer profiles, our clients gain the ability to segment, 
target and engage with their audiences for the purpose of

delivery of preferred, more relevant content and advertising.

their data and the importance of transparency. We aspire to be 
the first consumer-trusted data brand by enabling consumers 
to take ownership and control of their data and helping them 
derive substantial benefit from it.

Chairman’s Letter

DEAR FELLOW INVESTORS,

It is my privilege to present to you Pureprofile’s FY2019 Annual 
Report. There is no doubt that it has been a year of challenges 
and changes, most recently to the composition of the Board 
and senior management, which included me stepping back into 
an executive role as Executive Chairman.

With a leaner and more agile team to continue the focus on 
growing our core business, I am confident that we will return 
to positive operating cash flow and EBITDA. In this regard, we 
have provided to the market an FY20 EBITDA guidance of 
$2.7m - $3.0m.

We have reached this position after completing the first phase 
of our turnaround strategy, which included:

•  a $5m reduction in the annualised cost base;
• 

simplification of the business with the sale of the 
Company’s media trading and ANZ lead  
generation business units; and
revenue growth of its core Data & Insights and 
Media offerings.

• 

I am especially pleased that the next phase of the Company’s 
turnaround will be led by Mrs Melinda Sheppard, who has 
been promoted from Chief Financial Officer to Chief Operating 
Officer. Melinda has been instrumental over the past year in 
ensuring that the Company’s finances continue to be managed 
tightly and prudently. 

WITH A LEANER AND MORE AGILE TEAM TO CONTINUE THE FOCUS  
ON GROWING OUR CORE BUSINESS, I AM CONFIDENT THAT WE WILL 
RETURN TO POSITIVE OPERATING CASH FLOW AND EBITDA.

In working with her, Melinda has not been afraid to roll up her 
sleeves and get down into the weeds and she shows genuine 
enthusiasm to see this Company succeed. I can think of no one 
better to take on the day-to-day management responsibilities 
for Pureprofile and she has the strongest confidence and 
support of the Board.

I welcome our latest board appointment, Mr Aaryn Nania, 
as a non-executive director. Aaryn is also a co-founder and 
director of Lucerne Investment Partners, Pureprofile primary 
lender. Lucerne has been supportive of Pureprofile’s for almost 
2 years and to have Aaryn on board as a director shows the 
commitment Lucerne has to working with us as true partners.

The past 18 months have been challenging for Pureprofile as it 
has undergone a fundamental transformation.  Notwithstanding 
this, the underlying fundamentals of the Company are 
encouraging and continue to improve. On a continuing business 
basis:

•  Total revenue was $26.7m, up 5% on FY2018
•  Gross margin was 58%, down 1% on FY2018
•  EBITDA was ($1.3m), up 49% on FY2018 

It is even more impressive to note that the Company’s core 
D&I and Media businesses grew 14% and 3% respectively over 
the year. More challenging though was the Performance UK 
business unit, which declined 35%. 

On a statutory basis (which includes the discontinued 
businesses that were sold during the year), the results are:

•  Total statutory revenue of $37.8m
•  Net Profit (Loss) After Tax of ($14.5m)
•  Operating cash flow improvement of $1.9m

The NPAT position was primarily attributable to the final, non-
cash write down of intangibles relating to the sale of the Media 
Trading and Performance ANZ businesses. Accordingly, with the 
impact of these material write downs behind us, it is expected 
that NPAT will significantly improve in the coming financial year. 

There is still much work to do as we enter the next phase of 
Pureprofile’s turnaround. However, the direction and strategic 
focus of the business is clear: maintain net positive cash flow; 
continue to grow revenue; and explore capital restructuring 
initiatives that reduce our debt exposure.

As always, I’d like to thank my board colleagues for their 
commitment and contribution over the year. I’d also like to thank 
our talented, hard-working staff across the globe for all their 
efforts. And, of course, to our shareholders, whose continued 
patience and support is greatly appreciated.

Total  statutory  revenue  for  FY2019  was  $37.8m,  a  decline  of  27%  on  prior  comparable  period  (pcp)  (FY2018:  $52.0m). 
However,  the  decline  was  largely  due  to  the  group  not  having  the  benefit  of  full-year  results  of  the  Media  Trading  and 
Performance (ANZ) businesses, which were sold in October 2018 and March 2019 respectively. These businesses were 
sold  as  they  were  forecast  to  have  declining  revenues  and  with  lower  margins  compared  to  the  group’s  core  business 
units.  Following  the  release  of  the  preliminary  financials  on  28  August  2019,  an  additional  amount  of  ($3.8m)  was 
recognised, which impacted the group's NPAT. This included a non-cash write down of intangibles relating to the disposal 
of  the  Media  Trading  business  ($3.5m);  provision  for  retroactively  applied  council  rates  in  the  UK  ($0.2m);  and  revenue 
reversal ($0.1m). This accounts for the difference in the statutory NPAT of ($14.5m) compared to NPAT of ($10.7m) stated 
in the preliminary financials.

Pureprofile Ltd 
Directors' report 
30 June 2019 

On a continuing business basis, total revenue was $26.7m, a 5% increase on pcp (FY2018: $25.4m). The full impact of the 
growth from the core businesses was masked by the decline of the retained Performance business in the UK, which was 
down  35%  on  pcp  (FY19:  $2.2m;  FY18:  $3.4m)  due  to  unforeseen  reduction  in  sales  resources  and  capability.  Data  & 
Insights  was  up  14%  on  pcp  (FY19:  $18.4m,  FY18:  16.1m).  Of  this  growth,  the  D&I  business  in  the  UK  grew  95%.  The 
Media business also showed modest growth for the year of 3% (FY19: $6.1m, FY18: $5.9m) though it significantly ramped 
up in the second half with growth of 23% on pcp. 

Gross  margin  remained  relatively  stable  at  58%,  a  1%  decline  on  pcp.  The  decline  was  more  marked  across  the  Media 
Trading and Performance ANZ businesses, which were sold. Had these business units not been divested, it is likely that 
gross margin levels would have declined further.  

The revenue growth had a positive impact on EBITDA on continuing businesses, which improved by 49%, up from ($2.5m) 
in  FY2018  to  ($1.3m)  in  FY2019.  Statutory  net  profit  (loss)  after  tax  was  also  improved  by  44%  (FY2019:  ($14.5m); 
FY2018: ($26.0m)), largely due to the reduction in non-cash write-downs of intangibles that were recognised in FY2018. 

Significant changes in the state of affairs 
The following significant changes in the state of affairs occurred during the year: 

● 

● 

● 

 Board resignations: Mr Marcelo Ulvert and Mr Cliff Rosenberg resigned from the Board on 12 February 2019 and 28 
February 2019, respectively. 
 Debt  facilities: the  group agreed  new terms  on  its existing  debt facility with  Lucerne Investment  Partners (Lucerne). 
Under the revised terms, the group secured an additional line of credit of $3m in February 2019 and $2.6m in June 
2019. 
 Sales of businesses: the group divested its Media Trading and Performance (ANZ) businesses (in October 2018 and 
March 2019 respectively), which were considered to be declining in revenue with lower margins compared to its core 
businesses. 

There were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the group during the financial year. 

Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year 
On 28  August 2019, Mr Nic Jones resigned  as CEO  and  Managing  Director, with Mr  Andrew Edwards taking over  in  an 
ongoing  executive  capacity  as  Executive  Chairman.  At  the  same  time,  CFO,  Mrs  Melinda  Sheppard,  was  promoted  to 
Chief  Operating  Officer,  with  responsibility  for  managing  finance,  HR,  operational  delivery  and  corporate  services.  Mr 
Aaryn Nania was also appointed Non-Executive Director to replace Mr Jones on the board. 

Effective 1 September 2019, the following changes were made to the group’s existing debt facilities with Lucerne: 

● 
● 

● 

 Maturity date: the maturity date on all facilities has been extended to 1 October 2020; 
 Interest rate: the interest rate has been set at 20% on all drawn facilities and the group has the option to  capitalise 
interest and repay it with the principal upon maturity; and 
 Repayment  fee:  the  ‘Repayment  Fee’,  which  Lucerne  would  have  been  entitled  to  on  the  happening  of  a  ‘Control 
Transaction’ (as disclosed to the ASX on 28 February 2019), has been removed. 

Effective 27 September 2019, the group’s debt facilities with Lucerne were increased by $5,400,000. The line of credit on 
Facility C was increased from $2,600,000 to $7,000,000. The maturity date and interest rate remain unchanged from the 
amendments made to the facility on 1 September 2019. 

No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2019 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect 
the group's operations, the results of those operations, or the group's state of affairs in future financial years. 

Likely developments and expected results of operations 
Revenue growth for the group’s core Data & Insights and Media business units are expected to continue while revenues for 
the Performance UK business is expected to recover after a decline in FY2019. 

The group has provided EBITDA guidance of $2.7m - $3.0m (excluding the impact of AASB16 lease accounting standard).  

The  group  further  expects  to  realise  net  positive  cash  flows  from  operating  activities  and  will  continue  to  explore  capital 
restructuring initiatives and other strategic options to reduce its debt exposure.

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

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

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board on 
remuneration packages and policies relating to the directors and executives and to ensure that the remuneration policies 
and practices are consistent with the group's strategic goals and human resource objectives. 

In  consultation  with  external  remuneration  consultants  (refer  to  the  section  'use  of  remuneration  consultants'  below),  the 
Nomination and Remuneration Committee has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive 
and complementary to the reward strategy of the group. 

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

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

● 

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

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

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

Non-executive directors' remuneration 
Fees  and  payments  to  non-executive  directors  reflect  the  demands  and  responsibilities  of  their  role.  Non-executive 
directors' fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. The Nomination and 
Remuneration  Committee  may,  from  time  to  time,  receive  advice  from  independent  remuneration  consultants  to  ensure 
non-executive  directors'  fees  and  payments  are  appropriate  and  in  line  with  the  market.  The  chairman's  fees  are 
determined independently to the fees of other non-executive directors based on comparative roles in the external market. 
The  chairman  is  not  present  at  any  discussions  relating  to  the  determination  of  his  own  remuneration.  Non-executive 
directors do not receive short-term incentives and their remuneration must not include a commission on, or a percentage 
of, operating revenue. 

ASX  listing  rules  require  the  aggregate  non-executive  directors  remuneration  be  determined  periodically  by  a  general 
meeting. Under the company’s constitution and as set out in the IPO Prospectus, total aggregate remuneration available to 
non-executive directors is set currently at $600,000 per annum. Non-executive director fees (directors' fees and committee 
fees, inclusive of superannuation) proposed for the year ending 30 June 2020 are summarised as follows:

All directors are also eligible for additional long term incentives under the company's Long Term Incentive plan ('LTI'). The 
company from time to time grant Director share options under the LTI. Refer to Long Term Incentives section below for key 
terms and conditions of the LTI.

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

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

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

The  combination  of  these  comprises  the  executive's  total  remuneration.  The  remuneration  packages  for  executives  are 
considered by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and approved by the Board. At the absolute discretion of the 
Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the company may seek external advice on the appropriate level and structure 
of remuneration packages from time to time. 

Fixed  remuneration,  consisting  of  base  salary,  superannuation  and  non-monetary  benefits,  is  reviewed  annually  by  the 
Nomination and Remuneration Committee, based on individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of 
the group and comparable market remuneration. 

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

The  short-term  incentives  ('STI')  program  is  designed  to  align  the  targets  of  the  business  units  with  the  performance 
hurdles of executives. Under the STI, eligible executives may be offered cash incentives ('rewards') which may be subject 
to vesting conditions set by the Board. Each offer of rewards under the STI is, or will be, on the terms generally described 
as follows: 
● 
● 

 the Board will determine the total dollar amount of the STI, calculated as a percentage of their salary package; 
 the payment (or part payment) of the STI will be subject to fulfilment (or part fulfilment) of performance conditions set 
by the Board; 
 any STI that becomes payable will be paid in cash and, at the discretion of the Board, by the grant of rights to receive 
shares ('service rights') of equivalent value (as determined by the Board at the time of grant); 
 if granted, the service rights will vest 13 months from grant date provided that the eligible employee is still employed 
by the company at the vesting date; 
 on vesting employees will  receive the shares that  are subject to the service rights without payment of any  exercise 
price; 
 service right holders are not entitled to participate in new issues of shares or other securities made by the company to 
holders  of  shares  without  receiving  the  shares  that  are  subject  to  the  service  rights  before  the  record  date  for  the 
relevant issue; 
 if, prior to the receipt of shares that are subject to the service right, the company makes a pro rata bonus issue to the 
holders  of  its  shares,  and  the  shares  that  are  subject  to  the  service  right  are  not  issued  prior  to  the  record  date  in 
respect  of  that  bonus  issue,  the  service  right  will,  when  vested,  entitle  the  holder  to  one  share  plus  the  number  of 
bonus shares which would have been issued to the holder if the shares that are subject to the service right had been 
issued prior to the record date; and 
 if, prior to the receipt of shares that are subject to the service right, the company undergoes a reorganisation of capital 
(other than by way of a bonus issue for cash), the terms of the service rights will be changed to the extent necessary 
to comply with the ASX Listing Rules as they apply at the relevant time.

The  long-term  incentives  include  long  service  leave  and  share-based  payments.  The  company  has  adopted  a  long  term 
incentive plan ('LTI') in order to assist in the motivation and retention of key staff. The LTI is designed to align the interest 
of  eligible  executives  and  employees  more  closely  with  the  interests  of  the  shareholders  by  providing  an  opportunity  for 
eligible executives and employees to receive an equity interest in the company.

Directors' report 
30 June 2019 

Under the LTI, eligible executives and employees may be given options to acquire shares which may be subject to vesting 
conditions set by the Board. Each grant of options under the LTI is, or will be, on the terms generally described as follows: 
● 
● 

 the Board will determine the number of options to be granted to each eligible employee; 
 options will vest progressively over the periods which were determined by the Board at the time of the grant. One third 
of the options vested on completion of the IPO; another one third of the options vested on 31 August 2016 and the 
remaining one third of the options vested on 31 August 2017; 
 the options will expire five years from the vesting date; 
 the exercise price is set by the Board at the time of the grant. For the initial grant of options under the LTI as outlined 
in  the  prospectus,  the  exercise  price  is  $0.60  for  non-executive  directors  and  $0.50  for  all  other  executives  and 
employees issued options; 
 options  holders  are  not  entitled  to  participate  in  new  issues  of  shares  or  other  securities  made  by  the  company  to 
holders of shares without exercising the options before the record date for the relevant issue; 
 if, prior to the exercise of an option, the company makes a pro rata bonus issue to the holders of its shares, and the 
option is not exercised prior to the record date in respect of that bonus issue, the option will, when vested, entitle the 
holder to one share plus the number of bonus shares which would have been issued to the holder if the option had 
been exercised prior to the record date; and 
 if, prior to the exercise of an option, the company undergoes a reorganisation of capital (other than by way of a bonus 
issue for cash), the terms of the options will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the ASX Listing Rules 
as they apply at the relevant time.

Group performance and link to remuneration 
Remuneration  for  certain  individuals  is  directly  linked  to  the  performance  of  the  group.  A  portion  of  cash  bonus  and 
incentive  payments  are  dependent  on  defined  earnings  per  share  targets  being  met.  The  remaining  portion  of  the  cash 
bonus and incentive payments are at the discretion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee.  

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is of the opinion that the adoption of performance based compensation will 
have  a  positive  impact  on  its  earnings,  which  in  turn  will  have  a  positive  impact  on  its  share  price.  This  is  expected  to 
increase shareholder wealth if maintained over the coming years. 

Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth 
In considering the group's performance and benefits to shareholder wealth, the remuneration committee has had regard to 
the share price in respect of the current financial year and the previous three financial years.

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance  with a resolution of directors, on 27  September  2019. 
The directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. 

Note 2. Significant accounting policies 

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

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 
The  group  has  adopted  all  of  the  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian 
Accounting  Standards  Board  ('AASB')  that  are  mandatory  for  the  current  reporting  period.  The  adoption  of  these 
Accounting Standards and Interpretations did  not have any significant impact on the financial performance  or position  of 
the group. 

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

The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the group: 

The group has adopted AASB 9 from 1 July 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. The standard introduced new 
classification  and  measurement  models for financial  assets. A financial asset shall be measured at amortised cost if it is 
held  within  a  business  model  whose  objective  is  to  hold  assets  in  order  to  collect  contractual  cash  flows  which  arise  on 
specified dates and that are solely principal and interest. A debt investment shall be measured at fair value through other 
comprehensive  income  if  it  is  held  within  a  business  model  whose  objective  is  to  both  hold  assets  in  order  to  collect 
contractual cash flows which arise on specified dates that are solely principal and interest as well as selling the asset on 
the basis of its fair value. All other financial assets are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss unless 
the entity makes an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on equity instruments (that are 
not  held-for-trading  or  contingent  consideration  recognised  in  a  business  combination)  in  other  comprehensive  income 
('OCI').  Despite  these  requirements,  a  financial  asset  may  be  irrevocably  designated  as  measured  at  fair  value  through 
profit or loss to reduce the effect of, or eliminate, an accounting mismatch. For financial liabilities designated at fair value 
through profit or loss, the standard requires the portion of the change in fair value that relates to the entity's own credit risk 
to be presented in OCI (unless it would create an accounting mismatch). New simpler hedge accounting requirements are 
intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of the entity. New impairment 
requirements use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognise an allowance. Impairment is measured using a 12-
month  ECL  method  unless  the  credit  risk  on  a  financial  instrument  has  increased  significantly  since  initial  recognition  in 
which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. For receivables, a simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses 
using a lifetime expected loss allowance is available.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

The group has adopted AASB 15 from 1 July 2017, using the fully retrospective approach. The standard provides a single 
comprehensive model for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity shall recognise revenue 
to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the 
entity  expects  to  be  entitled  in  exchange  for  those  goods  or  services.  The  standard  introduced  a  new  contract-based 
revenue  recognition  model  with  a  measurement  approach  that  is  based  on  an  allocation  of  the  transaction  price.  This  is 
described further in the accounting policies below. Credit risk is presented separately as an expense rather than adjusted 
against revenue. Contracts with customers are presented in an entity's statement of financial position as a contract liability, 
a  contract  asset,  or  a  receivable,  depending  on  the  relationship  between  the  entity's  performance  and  the  customer's 
payment. Customer acquisition costs and costs to fulfil a contract can, subject to certain criteria, be capitalised as an asset 
and amortised over the contract period. 

The adoption of these standards resulted in the following adjustments: 
 interest receivable is now shown on the face of profit or loss; 
● 
 provision for impairment of receivables is now reclassified as allowance for expected credit loss; 
● 
 accrued revenue (previously classified in other current assets) now reclassified as contract asset; and 
● 
 deferred revenue now reclassified as contract liability. 
● 

There was no change in the carrying amounts on adoption of AASB 9 as at 1 July 2018 and AASB 15 as at 1 July 2017. 

Going concern 
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal activities 
and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. 

The group incurred a loss after income tax of $14,460,042 (2018: loss after income tax of $25,979,877) and was in a net 
current liability position of  $20,139,244 (2018: $3,923,864). The group generated negative cash flows from operations of 
$370,782 (2018: cash outflows of $2,302,460). 

The directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to conclude that the consolidated entity will continue as a going 
concern, after consideration of the following factors: 
● 

 the group has restructured its debt facility with the Lender to support its 3-year forecast, including the following, which 
have already been secured: 
(i)   an extension to its existing $10,000,000 debt facility to October 2020; and 
(ii)  2 additional facilities totalling $10,000,000 used to fund working capital. 
 the group has executed on a number of strategic decisions during the first half of FY2019, including the sale of the 
Media  Trading  business,  the  Adsparc  business  and  the  ANZ  Performance  business.  The  discontinuation  of  these 
business units, which have historically generated declining revenues and lower gross margins, is expected to improve 
the group’s gross margin and EBITDA as a result; 
 restructuring  activities  which  were  executed  during  FY2019  and  the  ongoing  identification  of  further  cost  saving 
initiatives during FY2020 continue to better align expenses to revenue and to strengthen EBITDA;  
 the above changes complemented by robust processes for cash management will support the cash needs during the 
transition to a simpler business model; and 
 existing Lender continues to be supportive of the group and its turnaround strategy. 

● 

● 

● 

● 

Accordingly, the directors believe the group will be able to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt 
the going concern basis in the preparation of the consolidated financial report. Should the group be unable to continue as a 
going  concern  it  may  be  required  to  release  its  assets  and  discharge  its  liabilities  other  than  in  the  normal  course  of 
business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any 
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying value amounts of the amounts of liabilities that 
might result should the group be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due. 

Basis of preparation 
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  ('AASB')  and  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  as 
appropriate  for  for-profit  oriented  entities.  These  financial  statements  also  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB'). 

Historical cost convention 
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Critical accounting estimates 
The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  the  use  of  certain  critical  accounting  estimates.  It  also  requires 
management to exercise  its judgement in the process of applying the group's accounting policies. The areas involving a 
higher  degree  of  judgement  or  complexity,  or  areas  where  assumptions  and  estimates  are  significant  to  the  financial 
statements, are disclosed in note 3. 

Parent entity information 
In  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  these  financial  statements  present  the  results  of  the  group  only. 
Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 33. 

Principles of consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Pureprofile Ltd ('company' 
or  'parent  entity')  as  at  30  June  2019  and  the  results  of  all  subsidiaries  for  the  year  then  ended.  Pureprofile  Ltd  and  its 
subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'group'. 

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

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

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

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

Operating segments 
Operating  segments  are  presented  using  the  'management  approach',  where  the  information  presented  is  on  the  same 
basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the 
allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. 

Foreign currency translation 
The  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Australian  dollars,  which  is  Pureprofile  Ltd's  functional  and  presentation 
currency. 

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

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

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

Revenue recognition 
The group recognises revenue as follows: 

Revenue from contracts with customers 
Revenue  is  recognised  at  an  amount  that  reflects  the  consideration  to  which  the  group  is  expected  to  be  entitled  in 
exchange  for  transferring  goods  or  services  to  a  customer.  For  each  contract  with  a  customer,  the  group:  identifies  the 
contract  with  a  customer;  identifies  the  performance  obligations  in  the  contract;  determines  the  transaction  price  which 
takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the 
separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be 
delivered;  and  recognises  revenue  when  or  as  each  performance  obligation  is  satisfied  in  a  manner  that  depicts  the 
transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised. 

Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer such as discounts, 
rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other contingent events. Such estimates 
are  determined  using  either  the  'expected  value'  or  'most  likely  amount'  method.  The  measurement  of  variable 
consideration is subject to  a constraining principle whereby revenue will only be recognised to the extent that it  is highly 
probable  that  a  significant  reversal  in  the  amount  of  cumulative  revenue  recognised  will  not  occur.  The  measurement 
constraint  continues  until  the  uncertainty  associated  with  the  variable  consideration  is  subsequently  resolved.  Amounts 
received that are subject to the constraining principle are recognised as a refund liability. 

Sales revenue - data and insights 
Revenue relating to the provision of services for Data & Insights encapsulates online market research services which helps 
businesses  connect  to,  and  receive  feedback  from,  consumers  who  are  registered  to  www.pureprofile.com.  The  group 
generates  sales  revenue  by  charging  clients  for  access  to  its  online  panel  for  survey  responses  and  may  additionally 
charge for set-up and support services. Contracts with clients generally comprise a single distinct performance obligation, 
being the provision of market research services and the transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. 
Some contracts contain multiple deliverables – such as set-up and support services. In such circumstances, these multiple 
deliverables  are  considered  to  represent  a  single  distinct  performance  obligation,  given  there  is  a  significant  integration 
performed by the group in delivering the services. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognised over time and is based 
on  the  actual  service  provided  to  the  end  of  the  reporting  period  as  a  proportion  of  the  total  services  to  be  provided 
because  the  customer  receives  and  uses  the  benefits  simultaneously.  This  is  determined  based  on  the  actual  surveys 
completed relative to the total expected surveys.  

Sales revenue - media 
Revenue relating to the  provision of services for Media sales  including programmatic buying and selling of ad inventory, 
online  marketing  solutions  for  advertisers  and  advertising  yield  optimisation  solutions  for  online  publishers.  The  group 
generates  sales  revenue  for  managed  campaign  (programmatic  trading)  services  by  charging  clients  for  purchasing  ad 
inventory and managing the placement of ads on their behalf (at a marked-up price to the ad inventory purchased or as a 
service fee). The group also generates sales revenue for Media Trading service by buying and reselling ad inventory. The 
group  also  generates  sales  revenue  by  helping  publishers  to  increase  yield  through  programmatically  selling  their  ad 
inventory. Contracts with clients generally comprise a single distinct performance obligation, being the provision of Media 
services described above and the transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Fees for the provision 
of services are recognised as revenue as the services are rendered,  in  accordance with the terms  and conditions of the 
service agreement.  

Sales revenue - performance 
Revenue  relating  to  the  provision  of  services  for  digital  marketing  by  providing  lead  generation  and  email  marketing 
services.  The  group  generates  sales  revenue  for  lead  generation  services  by  charging  clients  on  a  price  per  lead  basis. 
The group generates sales revenue from email marketing by various revenue models including cost per thousand (CPM), 
cost per click (CPC) and cost per acquisition (CPA). Contracts with clients generally comprise a single distinct performance 
obligation, being the provision of Lead Generation and Email marketing services described above and the transaction price 
is  allocated  to  the  single  performance  obligation.  For  fixed-price  contracts,  revenue  is  recognised  based  on  the  actual 
service  provided  to  the  end  of  the  reporting  period  as  a  proportion  of  the  total  services  to  be  provided  because  the 
customer receives and uses the benefits simultaneously. This is determined based on the actual leads obtained relative to 
the total expected leads.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

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

Other revenue 
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. 

Grant income 
Grant income received is recognised as income in the period in which it is received. 

Income tax 
The  income  tax  expense  or  benefit  for  the  period  is  the  tax  payable  on  that  period's  taxable  income  based  on  the 
applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to 
temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when 
the  assets  are  recovered  or  liabilities  are  settled,  based  on  those  tax  rates  that  are  enacted  or  substantively  enacted, 
except for: 
● 

 When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a 
transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting 
nor taxable profits; or 
 When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and 
the  timing  of  the  reversal  can  be  controlled  and  it  is  probable  that  the  temporary  difference  will  not  reverse  in  the 
foreseeable future. 

● 

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. 

The carrying  amount  of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting  date. Deferred 
tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for 
the carrying amount to be  recovered.  Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the  extent that it is 
probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  only  where  there  is  a  legally  enforceable  right  to  offset  current  tax  assets 
against  current  tax  liabilities  and  deferred  tax  assets  against  deferred  tax  liabilities;  and  they  relate  to  the  same  taxable 
authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. 

Pureprofile  Ltd.  (the  'head  entity')  and  its  wholly-owned  Australian  subsidiaries  have  formed  an  income  tax  consolidated 
group with tax funding agreements, under the tax consolidation regime, effective 7 November 2014. The head entity and 
each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax 
consolidated  group  has  applied  the  'separate  taxpayer  within  group'  approach  in  determining  the  appropriate  amount  of 
taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group. 

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) 
and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax 
consolidated group. 

Assets  or  liabilities  arising  under  tax  funding  agreements  with  the  tax  consolidated  entities  are  recognised  as  amounts 
receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group.  The tax funding arrangement ensures that the 
intercompany charge equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither a 
contribution by the head entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by the subsidiaries to the head entity.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Discontinued operations 
A discontinued operation is a component of the group that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that 
represents  a  separate  major  line  of  business  or  geographical  area  of  operations,  is  part  of  a  single  co-ordinated  plan  to 
dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The 
results  of  discontinued  operations  are  presented  separately  on  the  face  of  the  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other 
comprehensive income. 

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

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

A liability is classified as current when: it  is either expected to be settled  in the group's normal operating cycle; it is held 
primarily  for  the  purpose  of  trading;  it  is  due  to  be  settled  within  12  months  after  the  reporting  period;  or  there  is  no 
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities 
are classified as non-current. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. 

Cash and cash equivalents 
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and 
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

Trade and other receivables 
Trade  receivables  are  initially  recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 
interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 
30 days. 

The group has applied the simplified approach to  measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime  expected loss 
allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue. 

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses. 

Contract assets 
Contract assets are recognised when the group has transferred goods or services to the customer but where the group is 
yet  to  establish  an  unconditional  right  to  consideration.  Contract  assets  are  treated  as  financial  assets  for  impairment 
purposes. 

Property, plant and equipment 
Plant  and  equipment  is  stated  at  historical  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment.  Historical  cost  includes 
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. 

Depreciation is calculated  on  a straight-line basis to  write off the  net cost  of each item of property,  plant  and equipment 
over their expected useful lives as follows: 

Office and computer equipment 

 3 to 9 years 

The  residual  values,  useful  lives  and  depreciation  methods  are  reviewed,  and  adjusted  if  appropriate,  at  each  reporting 
date. 

Leasehold  improvements  (including  make-good  asset)  and  plant  and  equipment  under  lease  are  depreciated  over  the 
unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the 
group. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss.  

Leases 
Operating lease payments, net of any incentives received from the  lessor, are charged to profit or loss on  a straight-line 
basis over the term of the lease. 

Intangible assets 
Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their fair value 
at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible 
assets  are  not  amortised  and  are  subsequently  measured  at  cost  less  any  impairment.  Finite  life  intangible  assets  are 
subsequently  measured  at  cost  less  amortisation  and  any  impairment.  The  gains  or  losses  recognised  in  profit  or  loss 
arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the 
carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. 
Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation 
method or period. 

Goodwill 
Goodwill  arises  on  the  acquisition  of  a  business.  Goodwill  is  not  amortised.  Instead,  goodwill  is  tested  annually  for 
impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at 
cost  less  accumulated  impairment  losses.  Impairment  losses  on  goodwill  are  taken  to  profit  or  loss  and  are  not 
subsequently reversed. 

Software 
Costs incurred in developing products or systems and costs incurred in acquiring software and licenses that will contribute 
to  future  period  financial  benefits  through  revenue  generation  and/or  cost  reductions  are  capitalised.  Costs  capitalised 
include external direct costs of materials and service and employee costs. Software development costs include only those 
costs  directly  attributable  to  the  development  phase  and  are  only  recognised  following  completion  of  technical  feasibility 
and where the group has  an  intention and ability  to  use the  asset.  Software costs are  amortised on a straight-line basis 
over the period of their expected benefit, being their finite life of between four and five years. 

Customer and partnership network relationships 
In  November  2016,  Pureprofile,  with  the  acquisition  of  the  Cohort  Group,  acquired  customer  and  partner  network 
relationships which will be amortised over their useful economic life of between 6 to 8 years, on a straight line basis. The 
Cohort Group was subsequently disposed during the year ended 30 June 2019 and the Customer and partnership network 
relationships intangible assets were subsequently disposed of and/or impaired. 

Membership base 
In November 2016, Pureprofile, with the acquisition of the Cohort Group, acquired a membership database which will be 
amortised over its useful economic life of 7 years, on a straight line basis. The Membership base was not disposed as part 
of sale of the Performance ANZ business.  

Brand names 
Acquired brand names are not amortised. Instead, brand names are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if 
events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  they  might  be  impaired,  and  is  carried  at  cost  less  accumulated 
impairment losses. 

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

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

Trade and other payables 
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the group prior to the end of the financial year and 
which  are  unpaid.  Due  to  their  short-term  nature  they  are  measured  at  amortised  cost  and  are  not  discounted.  The 
amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30-45 days of recognition. 

Contract liabilities 
Contract liabilities represent the group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer and are recognised when a 
customer pays consideration, or when the group recognises a receivable to reflect its unconditional right to consideration 
(whichever is earlier) before the group has transferred the goods or services to the customer. 

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

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

Provisions 
Provisions are recognised when the group has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, it is 
probable  the  group  will  be  required  to  settle  the  obligation,  and  a  reliable  estimate  can  be  made  of  the  amount  of  the 
obligation. The amount recognised  as a  provision  is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the  present 
obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value 
of  money  is  material,  provisions  are  discounted  using  a  current  pre-tax  rate  specific  to  the  liability.  The  increase  in  the 
provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. 

Reward redemption 
The group invites its internet panel members to complete surveys in exchange for a cash or points-based incentive. These 
amounts are not paid until a predetermined target value has accrued on a members account. An assessment of incentives 
likely  to  be  paid  (present  obligation)  is  made  taking  into  account  past  behaviour  and  activity. This  is  recognised  as  an 
expense in the period in which the service is provided. 

Employee benefits 

Short-term employee benefits 
Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary  benefits,  annual  leave  and  long  service  leave  expected  to  be 
settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities 
are settled. 

Other long-term employee benefits 
The liability for employee benefits not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured as 
the  present  value  of  expected  future  payments  to  be  made  in  respect  of  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  high  quality 
corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. 

Defined contribution superannuation expense 
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. 

Share-based payments 
Equity-settled  share-based  compensation  benefits  are  provided  to  employees.  Equity-settled  transactions  are  awards  of 
shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

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

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

Market  conditions  are  taken  into  consideration  in  determining  fair  value.  Therefore,  any  awards  subject  to  market 
conditions  are  considered  to  vest  irrespective  of  whether  or  not  that  market  condition  has  been  met,  provided  all  other 
conditions are satisfied. 

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. 
An  additional  expense  is  recognised,  over  the  remaining  vesting  period,  for  any  modification  that  increases  the  total  fair 
value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. 

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

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

Fair value measurement 
When an asset or liability,  financial or non-financial,  is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure  purposes, the 
fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction 
between  market  participants  at  the  measurement  date;  and  assumes  that  the  transaction  will  take  place  either:  in  the 
principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. 

Fair  value  is  measured  using  the  assumptions  that  market  participants  would  use  when  pricing  the  asset  or  liability, 
assuming they  act  in their  economic  best  interests. For non-financial assets,  the fair value measurement is based  on  its 
highest  and  best  use.  Valuation  techniques  that  are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances  and  for  which  sufficient  data  are 
available  to  measure  fair  value,  are  used,  maximising  the  use  of  relevant  observable  inputs  and  minimising  the  use  of 
unobservable inputs. 

Assets  and  liabilities  measured  at  fair  value  are  classified  into  three  levels,  using  a  fair  value  hierarchy  that  reflects  the 
significance  of  the  inputs  used  in  making  the  measurements.  Classifications  are  reviewed  at  each  reporting  date  and 
transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair 
value measurement. 

For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either 
not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge 
and  reputation.  Where  there  is  a  significant  change  in  fair  value  of  an  asset  or  liability  from  one  period  to  another,  an 
analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, 
where applicable, with external sources of data. 

Issued capital 
Ordinary shares are classified 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.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Business combinations 
The  acquisition  method  of  accounting  is  used  to  account  for  business  combinations  regardless  of  whether  equity 
instruments or other assets are acquired. 

The  consideration  transferred  is  the  sum  of  the  acquisition-date  fair  values  of  the  assets  transferred,  equity  instruments 
issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest 
in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value 
or  at  the  proportionate  share  of  the  acquiree's  identifiable  net  assets.  All  acquisition  costs  are  expensed  as  incurred  to 
profit or loss. 

On the acquisition of a business, the group assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate 
classification  and  designation  in  accordance  with  the  contractual  terms,  economic  conditions,  the  group's  operating  or 
accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date. 

Where  the  business  combination  is  achieved  in  stages,  the  group  remeasures  its  previously  held  equity  interest  in  the 
acquiree at the acquisition-date  fair value and  the difference between  the fair value  and the previous carrying amount  is 
recognised in profit or loss. 

Contingent  consideration  to  be  transferred  by  the  acquirer  is  recognised  at  the  acquisition-date  fair  value.  Subsequent 
changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  contingent  consideration  classified  as  an  asset  or  liability  is  recognised  in  profit  or  loss. 
Contingent  consideration  classified  as  equity  is  not  remeasured  and  its  subsequent  settlement  is  accounted  for  within 
equity. 

The  difference  between  the  acquisition-date  fair  value  of  assets  acquired,  liabilities  assumed  and  any  non-controlling 
interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment 
in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair 
value  of the identifiable  net assets acquired, being a  bargain purchase to the acquirer, the  difference  is recognised as a 
gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and 
measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred 
and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer. 

Business  combinations  are  initially  accounted  for  on  a  provisional  basis.  The  acquirer  retrospectively  adjusts  the 
provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based 
on  new  information  obtained  about  the  facts  and  circumstances  that  existed  at  the  acquisition-date.  The  measurement 
period ends on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the 
information possible to determine fair value. 

Earnings per share 

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

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

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes 
Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the  amount  of  associated  GST,  unless  the  GST  incurred  is  not 
recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part 
of the expense. 

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

Cash  flows  are  presented  on  a  gross  basis.  The  GST  components  of  cash  flows  arising  from  investing  or  financing 
activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. 

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

Rounding of amounts 
The company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, 
issued  by  the  Australian  Securities  and  Investments  Commission,  relating  to  'rounding-off'.  Amounts  in  this  Report  have 
been rounded to the nearest dollar.  

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  that  have  recently  been  issued  or  amended  but  are  not  yet 
mandatory, have not  been  early adopted by the group for the annual reporting  period  ended 30 June  2019. The group's 
assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the group, 
are set out below. 

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

The  group  has  elected  to  apply  the  modified  retrospective  approach  as  permitted  by  AASB  16.  The  cumulative  effect  of 
adopting AASB 16 will be recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at 1 July 2019 with no 
restatement of comparative information. 

The  group  has  chosen  to  measure  the  existing  operating  leases  at  the  present  value  of  the  remaining  lease  payments, 
discounted using the group's incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application.

The effect on NPAT is not expected to be significant. However, EBITDA will be positively affected because the operating 
lease expense will be replaced by depreciation and interest charges, which are recorded below the EBITDA line.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

New Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting 
A  revised  Conceptual  Framework  for  Financial  Reporting  has  been  issued  by  the  AASB  and  is  applicable  for  annual 
reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  1  January  2020.  This  release  impacts  for-profit  private  sector  entities  that  have 
public  accountability  that  are  required  by  legislation  to  comply  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  other  for-profit 
entities that voluntarily elect to apply the Conceptual Framework. Phase 2 of the framework is yet to be released which will 
impact for-profit private sector entities. The application of new definition and recognition criteria as well as new guidance on 
measurement  will  result  in  amendments  to  several  accounting  standards.  The  issue  of  AASB  2019-1  Amendments  to 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  –  References  to  the  Conceptual  Framework,  also  applicable  from  1  January  2020, 
includes such amendments. Where the group has relied on the conceptual framework in determining its accounting policies 
for transactions, events or conditions that are not otherwise dealt with under Australian Accounting Standards, the group 
may need  to revisit such  policies. The group will  apply the revised conceptual framework from  1 July  2020 and is yet  to 
assess its impact. 

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

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

Share-based payment transactions 
The  group  measures  the  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  with  employees  by  reference  to  the  fair  value  of  the  equity 
instruments  at  the  date  at  which  they  are  granted.  The  fair  value  is  determined  by  using  either  the  Binomial  or  Black-
Scholes  model  taking  into  account  the  terms  and  conditions  upon  which  the  instruments  were  granted.  The  accounting 
estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts 
of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. 

Estimation of useful lives of assets 
The group determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant 
and  equipment  and  finite  life  intangible  assets.  The  useful  lives  could  change  significantly  as  a  result  of  technical 
innovations  or  some  other  event.  The  depreciation  and  amortisation  charge  will  increase  where  the  useful  lives  are  less 
than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be 
written off or written down. 

Goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets 
The group tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill 
and other indefinite life intangible assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in 
note  2.  The  recoverable  amounts  of  cash-generating  units  have  been  determined  based  on  value-in-use  calculations. 
These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital 
and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows. 

Following the disposal of the business units during the year ended 30 June 2019, goodwill has been apportioned between 
continuing operations and goodwill disposed of through the discontinued operations. Considerable judgement is required in 
determining the amounts to be apportioned between the continuing and discontinued operations. 

Impairment of non-financial assets other than indefinite life intangible assets 
The group assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than indefinite life intangible assets at each reporting date by 
evaluating conditions specific to the group and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger 
exists, the recoverable  amount of the  asset  is determined. This involves  fair value  less costs of disposal or value-in-use 
calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions.

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) 

Income tax 
The  group  is  subject  to  income  taxes  in  the  jurisdictions  in  which  it  operates.  Significant  judgement  is  required  in 
determining  the  provision  for  income  tax.  There  are  many  transactions  and  calculations  undertaken  during  the  ordinary 
course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. 

Recovery of deferred tax assets 
Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  deductible  temporary  differences  only  if  the  group  considers  it  is  probable  that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Reward redemption provision 
In  determining  the  level  of  provision  required  for  reward  redemptions  the  group  has  made  judgements  in  respect  of  the 
expected  outflows  necessary  to  settle  the  redemptions.  The  provision  represents  the  maximum  amount  that  the  group 
estimates  is  likely  to  be  claimed  by  panel  members  and  is  based  on  estimates  made  from  historical  data  and  likely 
redemption patterns. Balances accrued by panel members that have been inactive (i.e. not completed any transaction) for 
more than one year are written back to profit or loss.  

Note 4. Operating segments 

Identification of reportable operating segments 
The Group is organised into three operating segments: 
● Data & Insights; 
● Media; and 
● Performance 

These operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are 
identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of 
resources. There is no aggregation of operating segments. 

Other segments represent the corporate headquarters of the consolidated entity. 

The  CODM  reviews  EBITDA  (earnings  before  interest,  tax,  depreciation  and  amortisation).  The  accounting  policies 
adopted for internal reporting to the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements. 

Types of products and services 
The principal products and services are as follows: 
Data & Insights 
Media 
Performance 

 Conducting market research and providing research technology platforms 
 Buying and selling online advertising inventory on behalf of advertisers and publishers 
 Generates leads for clients through its consumer database and proprietary and partner 
digital assets 

On 4 October 2018, the group entered into a binding agreement to sell its media trading business unit which acquired as 
part of the acquisition of Sparcmedia in 2015 and on 1 March 2019 the group sold 100% of its interest in Cohort Holdings 
Australia  Pty Ltd and its controlled entities. Both business units were part of the media segment. Refer note 9 for further 
information. 

Major customers 
During the years ended 30 June  2019 and  30 June  2018  no single customer contributed more than  10%  to the Group's 
external revenue.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2019 

Note 15. Non-current assets - intangibles (continued) 

The recoverable amount of the CGU has been determined based on a value in use calculation. This calculation uses a 5 
year cash flow projection based upon financial budgets approved by management. Cash flows beyond the five year period 
are  extrapolated  using  the  long  term  growth  rate  stated  below.  The  growth  rate  does  not  exceed  the  long  term  average 
growth rate for the business. 

Key assumptions used in the value in use calculations  

Media CGU 
- Forecast growth 5%-18% (2018: 8%-12%);  
- Long-term growth rate 1% (2018: 1%); and  
- Pre-tax discount rate 24% (2018: 17%).  

Impairment test results - Media CGU  
Based on the testing performed no impairment was recognised for this CGU, for the year ended 30 June 2019. 

Impact of possible changes in assumptions  
The directors have  made judgments  and  estimates  in respect of  impairment testing  of goodwill.  Should these judgments 
and estimates not occur the resulting goodwill carrying may decrease. The sensitivities specific to the Media CGU are as 
follows: 

(a)   budgeted  revenue  growth  would  be  required  to  be  less  than  16%  for  the  year  ending  30  June  2020  and  4%  in 
subsequent years before further goodwill and other intangibles assets would be impaired, with all other assumptions 
remaining constant. 

(b)   the  discount  rate  would  be  required  to  increase  to  28%  before  goodwill  and  other  intangibles  assets  would  be 

impaired, with all other assumptions remaining constant.  

Management believes that other reasonable changes in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount of goodwill 
is based would not cause the cash-generating unit's carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.

The group has unused tax losses of $5,026,658 (2018: $2,464,379) for which no tax benefit has been recognised. Based 
on  management's  assessment,  taking  into  consideration  the  group's  future  forecasts,  deferred  tax  assets  on  tax  losses 
have only been recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be taxable future income from which to off set the 
tax losses.

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

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

Share buy-back 
There is no current on-market share buy-back. 

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

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

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

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

The  group  is  subject  to  certain  financing  arrangements  covenants  and  meeting  these  is  given  priority  in  all  capital  risk 
management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements during the financial year. 

The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the previous period.

Note 26. Financial instruments 

Financial risk management objectives 
The  group's  activities  expose  it  to  a  variety  of  financial  risks:  market  risk  (including  foreign  currency  risk,  price  risk  and 
interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability 
of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the group. The group 
may  use  derivative  financial  instruments  such  as  forward  foreign  exchange  contracts  to  hedge  certain  risk  exposures. 
Derivatives are exclusively used for hedging purposes, i.e. not as trading or other speculative instruments. The group uses 
different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the 
case of interest rate, foreign exchange and other price risks and ageing analysis for credit risk. 

Market risk 

Foreign currency risk 
The group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign currency risk from various currency exposures, primarily with 
respect to the US dollar and GB Pound. 

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

The carrying amount of the group's foreign currency denominated financial assets and financial liabilities at the reporting 
date were not significant. 

Price risk 
The group is not exposed to any significant price risk.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2019 

Note 26. Financial instruments (continued) 

Interest rate risk 
The group's main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the group 
to interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the group to fair value interest rate risk. 

An analysis by remaining contractual maturities is shown in the liquidity section below. 

As at the 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018, the group's borrowings were subject to a fixed interest rate, hence the group 
was not susceptible to interest rate risk arising from fluctuation in the variable interest rate. 

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

The  group  has  adopted  a  lifetime  expected  loss  allowance  in  estimating  expected  credit  losses  to  trade  receivables 
through  the  use  of  a  provisions  matrix  using  fixed  rates  of  credit  loss  provisioning.  These  provisions  are  considered 
representative across all customers of the group based on recent sales experience, historical collection rates and forward-
looking information that is available. 

Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of this include 
the  failure  of  a  debtor  to  engage  in  a  repayment  plan,  no  active  enforcement  activity  and  a  failure  to  make  contractual 
payments for a period greater than 1 year. 

The group has a concentration of credit risk exposure with its debtors financing facility. The finance provider, as at 30 June 
2019,  is  owed  $2,069,339  (2018:  $5,628,290)  from  the  group's  trade  receivables.  In  the  event  that  the  group's  trade 
receivables  are  not  collect  the  group  will  be  liable  for  amounts  owed  to  the  finance  provider.  Amounts  owing  represent 
31.5%  (2018:  81.6%)  of  trade  receivables  at  30  June  2019.  The  group  has  recognised  a  provision  for  impairment  of 
receivables of $266,091 at 30 June 2019 (2018: 615,897) and management is confident of collection of the remaining trade 
receivables balances. There are no guarantees against these receivables but management closely monitors the receivable 
balance on a monthly basis and is in regular contact with this customer to mitigate risk. 

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

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

Note 27. Fair value measurement 

Fair value hierarchy 
The  following  tables  detail  the  group's  assets  and  liabilities,  measured  or  disclosed  at  fair  value,  using  a  three  level 
hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement, being: 
Level  1:  Quoted  prices  (unadjusted)  in  active  markets  for  identical  assets  or  liabilities  that  the  entity  can  access  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 
or indirectly 
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability 

The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables and trade and other payables are assumed to approximate their fair 
values due to their short-term nature.

Note 27. Fair value measurement (continued) 

The fair value of financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the remaining contractual maturities at the current market 
interest rate that is available for similar financial liabilities.  

Valuation techniques for fair value measurements categorised within level 2 and level 3 
During the year ended 30  June 2018,  the  fair value of the contingent consideration has  been valued  using  a discounted 
cash flow model and the fair value of shares to be issued.

Material uncertainty related to going concern 
We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $14,460,042 
during the year ended 30 June 2019, and as of that date, the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by 
$20,139,244. As stated in Note 2, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2, indicate that a 
material uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not 
modified in respect of this matter. 

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

In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the 
matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report. 

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Carrying value of intangible assets Note 15 

At 30 June 2019, the Group’s consolidated statement of financial 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

position included intangible assets of $11.1 million.  

AASB 136 Impairment of Assets requires, for the purposes of 
impairment testing, that goodwill acquired in a business combination 
be allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units (CGUs). 
Each CGU to which goodwill has been allocated must be tested for 
impairment at least annually or when indicators of impairment are 
present. 

During the period, the Group sold two of its Media businesses. As a 
result, goodwill of $3.5 million relating to these businesses within the 
Media CGU has been disposed. The remaining goodwill balance of 
$2.1 million allocated to the Media CGU has been tested for 
impairment. 

This assessment was performed by comparing the carrying amount of 
the Media CGU with its recoverable amount, which was determined 
using a value-in–use impairment model.     

We considered this to be a key audit matter given the value of these 
assets relative to total assets and the significant judgements and 
assumptions involved in the application of the value-in-use model 
used by management in testing intangible assets for impairment.  

 Evaluating the allocation of goodwill to the businesses disposed of
during the period by considering the underlying transactions which
originated the goodwill;

 Assessing whether the impairment testing model (“the model”)

used by management met the requirements of Australian
Accounting Standard AASB136 Impairment of Assets;

 Evaluating the determination of Cash Generating Units (CGUs)
with respect to the independence of cash inflows generated by
each CGU;

 Testing the mathematical accuracy of the model;
 Considering the underlying assumptions regarding future cash

flows used in the model by comparing these to approved budgets,
historical performance, business plans, industry forecasts and
other supporting information ;

 Considering the historical accuracy of the Group’s forecasting

ability;

 Assessing the discount rates and the terminal growth rates used in

the model, with involvement from our valuation specialists;

 Considering the sensitivity of the model, focussing on areas where
a reasonably possible change in assumptions could cause the
carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount and therefore
indicate impairment; and

 Considering the adequacy of the disclosures relating to intangible

assets in the financial statements, including those made with
respect to judgements and estimates.

Capitalisation of development costs Note 15 

During the year ended 30 June 2019, the Group capitalised $2.7 
million of costs related to the development of its software assets. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

 Assessing the assumptions used and estimates made in

AASB 138 Intangible Assets sets out the criteria that are required to 
be met in order to record intangible assets arising from the 
development phase of a project.  

Judgment is required by management in determining if the internal 
labour and external supplier costs incurred are directly attributable to 
the development projects and the appropriateness of these costs to 
be capitalised under AASB 138. 
This was considered to be a key audit matter due to the magnitude of 
amounts capitalised and the judgments and estimates involved in 
determining which costs may be capitalised throughout the life of the 
project and determining the useful life of the asset. 

capitalising development costs;

 Assessing whether the useful life of development costs is

appropriate;

 Testing, on a sample basis, costs capitalised to underlying

evidence including employment contracts, payroll reports and
invoices from external suppliers to assess the nature and eligibility
of development costs for capitalisation as an intangible asset
under AASB 138; and

 Considering the adequacy of the financial report disclosures.

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon 
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 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 Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, 
disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the 
Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.  

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report  
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance 
is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing 
Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are 
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions 
of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
