CHAIRMAN’S REPORT 

Financial Results 

The total revenues increased by approximately 140.90% to $18.9 million from $7.8 million in the previous reporting period.  

The  increase  in  total  revenues  during  the  year  to  30  June  2019  was  due  to  a  significant  growth  in  sale  from  electric  vehicle  (EV)  charging 

market;  meanwhile  sales  in  other  market  segments  remained  steady  compared  to  previous  reporting  period.  The  EV  market  has  contributed 

$12.3  million  to  revenue  in  the  current  reporting  period  compared  to  $1.5  million  to  revenue  in  the  previous  reporting  period  (Note  22).  The 

company expects revenue from these products to continue improving in the 2020 financial year. 

The  company  reported  a  higher  profit  before  income  tax  amounting  to  $3.3  million  compared  to  a  profit  before  income  tax  of  $463K  in  the 

previous reporting period. The significant increase in profit before income tax is primarily due to the increase in sales during the year. We have 

contributed  significant capital investment to upgrade current manufacturing facility in  Malaysia. The upgraded manufacturing facility increased 

our  production capacity  in  2019  financial  year. In  addition,  we  are expecting to  increase  our  production capacity  further  in  2020  following  the 

acquisition  of  a  new  factory  this  year.  Our  continued  expansion  and  investment  in  R&D  give  us  a  leading  position  in  the  industrial  power 

industry. 

The company reported a net profit of $2.1 million compared to a net profit of $62K from the previous financial reporting period.

22,010,000 Ordinary Shares, and 1,800,000 unlisted options exercisable at 2c each 

This  report  details  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration  for  each  director  of  Rectifier  Technologies  Ltd  and  other  key  management 

personnel. The Remuneration Report is audited.  

Remuneration Policy 

The  remuneration  policy  of  Rectifier  Technologies  Ltd  has  been  designed  to  align  director  and  executive  objectives  with  shareholder  and 

business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas 

affecting the consolidated entity’s financial results. The Board of Rectifier Technologies Ltd believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate 

and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the consolidated entity, as well as create 

goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders. 

The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and senior executives of the consolidated entity 

is as follows: 

The performance of executives is measured against criteria agreed annually with each executive and is based predominantly on the forecast 

growth of the consolidated entity’s profits and shareholders’ value. All bonuses and incentives must be linked to predetermined performance 

criteria.  The  Board  has  discretion  in  relation  to  approving  incentives,  bonuses  and  options.  Any  changes  must  be  justified  by  reference  to 

measurable performance criteria. 

The  policy  is  designed  to  attract  the  highest  calibre  of  executives  and  reward  them  for  performance  that  results  in  long-term  growth  in 

shareholder wealth. 

Executives and Key management personnel are also entitled to participate in the share option arrangements. 

The executive directors and key management personnel receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the Government, which 

is currently 9.5%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals, however, have chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to 

increase payments towards superannuation.

RECTIFIER TECHNOLOGIES LTD & CONTROLLED ENTITIES 

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Should shares be given to directors or 

executives, they would be valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the director or executive. 

Options are valued using an appropriate methodology. 

The  Board  policy  is  to  remunerate  non-executive  directors  at  market  rates  for  comparable  companies  for  time,  commitment  and 

responsibilities.  The  Board  determines  payments  to  the  non-executive  directors  and  reviews  their  remuneration  annually,  based  on  market 

practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be 

paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not 

linked to the performance of the consolidated entity. 

Performance Based Remuneration 

As part of each executive director and executive’s remuneration package there may be a performance-based component, consisting of key 

performance  indicators  (KPI’s).  The  intention  of  this  program  is  to  facilitate  goal  congruence  between  directors/executives  with  that  of  the 

business  and  shareholders.  Where  applicable,  the  KPI’s  are  set  annually,  with  a  certain  level  of  consultation  with  directors/executives  to 

ensure buy-in. The measures are specifically tailored to the areas each director/executive is involved in and has a level of control over. The 

KPI’s  target  areas  the Board  believes  hold  greater  potential  for  Group  expansion  and  profit,  covering  financial  and  non-financial  as  well  as 

short-term and long-term goals. The level set for each KPI is based on budgeted figures for the Group and respective industry standards. 

Performance in relation to the KPI’s is assessed annually, with bonuses being awarded depending on the number and deemed difficulty of the 

KPI’s  achieved.  Following  the  assessment,  the  KPI’s  are  reviewed  by  the  Board  in  light  of  the  desired  and  actual  outcomes,  and  their 

efficiency is assessed in relation to the Group’s goals and shareholder wealth, before the KPI’s are set for the following year. 

In determining whether or not a KPI has been achieved, Rectifier Technologies Ltd bases the assessment on audited figures, however, where 

the KPI involves comparison of individual performance within the Group, management reports which form the foundation for the Group audited 

results are used.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

Shares granted as remuneration 

There were no shares granted as remuneration in 2019. 

Remuneration Practices 

The company’s policy for determining the nature and amount of emoluments of board members and senior executives of the company is as 

follows: 

The remuneration structure for executive officers, including executive directors, is based on a number of factors, including length of service, 

particular experience of the individual concerned, and overall performance of the company or Group. The contracts for service between the 

company and specified directors and executives are on a continuing basis, the terms of which are not expected to change in the immediate 

future. Upon retirement specified directors and executives are paid employee benefit entitlements accrued to date of retirement. Any options 

issued as remuneration under the Company’s Share Option Plan not exercised before or on the date of termination lapse. 

The  service  contracts  stipulate  a  range  of  one  to  three  months  resignation  periods.  The  company  may  terminate  an  employment  contract 

without  cause  by  providing  up  to  3  months’  written  notice  or  making  payment  in  lieu  of  notice,  based  on  the  individual’s  annual  salary 

component  together  with  an  appropriate  redundancy  payment,  depending  on  the  individual  contract  terms.  Termination  payments  are 

generally not payable on resignation or dismissal for serious misconduct. In the instance of serious misconduct, the company can terminate 

employment at any time. Any options not exercised before or on the date of termination will lapse. 

The commentary above should be read in conjunction with the information provided in the Directors’ Report under Remuneration Policy. 

Company Performance, Shareholder Wealth and Directors’ and Executives’ Remuneration 

The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders and directors and executives. There have been 

two methods applied in achieving this aim, the first being a performance-based bonus which is based on key performance indicators, and the 

second  being  the  issue  of  options  to  the  majority  of  directors  and  executives  to  encourage  the  alignment  of  personal  and  shareholder 

interests. The company believes this policy to be the most effective manner to increase shareholder wealth. 

The following table shows the gross revenue, profits and dividends for the last five years for the listed entity, as well as the share price at the 

end of the respective financial years. The lower profit in 2015 was as result of a once off warranty expense claim which diluted profit, and also 

that  discontinued  RTUK  no  longer  contributed  profit  to  the  Group  in  2015  as  it  had  in  2014.  The  full  year  results  for  2016  represented  a 

significant  improvement  of  the  company’s  operational  performance  and  resulted  from  the  increase  in  sales  and  product  margin.  The  lower 

overall sales in the year to 30 June 2017 were due to the slowing down in sales of some of our key products used in the industrial market. The 

increase in revenue during the year to 30 June 2018 was due to the improving sales of some of our key products used in the industrial power 

supplies, particularly in the electric vehicle (EV) charging market. Total revenue was significantly increased to 18.90 million by approximately 

140.90% in 2019 compared to 2018 due to the significantly sales increase in EV charging market. We expect the continued improvement of 

revenue from the EV charging market with new products expected to be released in 2020.

Options Issued as Part of Remuneration 

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

Options may be issued to executives as part of their remuneration. Such options are generally not issued based on performance criteria, but 

are  issued  to  increase  goal  congruence  between  executives,  directors  and  shareholders  through  the  linkage  between  remuneration  and 

increasing shareholder value. 

Employment Contracts of Directors and Senior Executives 

The employment conditions of the CEO and specified executives are formalised in contracts of employment and all contracts require 4 weeks 

notice, with no termination payments specified other than employee entitlements.

Non-audit Services  

The board of directors, in accordance with advice from the audit committee, review the provision of non-audit services during the year to ensure 

that they are compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The directors satisfy 

themselves that the services do not compromise the external auditor’s independence for the following reasons:  

• 

• 

all non-audit services are reviewed and approved by the audit committee prior to commencement to ensure they do not adversely affect 

the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and  

the nature of the services provided do not compromise the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in the Code of 

Conduct APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board.   

Details  of  the  amounts  paid  to  the  auditors  of  the  Company,  Grant  Thornton  Audit  Pty  Ltd,  and  its  related  practices  for  audit  and  non-audit 

services provided during the year are set out in Note 8 to the financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

NOTE 1:   

Corporate information 

The financial statements of Rectifier Technologies Limited for the year ended 30 June 2019 were authorised for issue in accordance with 

a resolution of the directors on 26 September 2019 and covers the consolidated entity consisting of Rectifier Technologies Limited and its 

subsidiaries as required by the Corporations Act 2001. 

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted. 

Rectifier  Technologies  Limited  is  a  company  limited  by  shares  and  incorporated  in  Australia,  whose  shares  are  publicly  traded  on  the 

Australian Stock Exchange. 

The address of the registered office and principal place of business is 97 Highbury Road, Burwood, Vic 3125, Australia. 

NOTE 2:   

Summary of significant accounting policies 

a.  

Basis of preparation 

The consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting 

Standards,  other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the Australian  Accounting  Standards Board  and  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  Rectifier 

Technologies Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.  

Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes of the consolidated entity comply with 

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 

Historical cost convention 

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except  for investments that have been measured at fair 

value.  

b.  

Basis of Consolidation 

Subsidiaries 

The  Group  financial  statements  consolidate  those  of  the  Rectifier  Technologies  Limited  and  all  of  its  subsidiaries  as  of  30  June  2019. 

Rectifier Technologies Limited controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary 

and  has  the  ability  to  affect  those  returns  through  its  power  over  the  subsidiary.  All  subsidiaries  have  a  reporting  date  of  30  June.  All 

transactions  and  balances  between  Group  companies  are  eliminated  on  consolidation,  including  unrealised  gains  and  losses  on 

transactions between Group companies. Where unrealised losses on intra-Group asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying 

asset  is  also  tested  for  impairment  from  a  Group  perspective. Amounts  reported  in  the  financial  statements  of  subsidiaries  have  been 

adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. 

Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are recognised from the effective date 

of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.  

Subsidiaries are accounted for at cost by the parent entity and are included in the balances disclosed in note 26.  

c.  

Income Tax 

The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the national income tax rate for 

each  jurisdiction  adjusted  by  changes  in  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  attributable  to  temporary  differences  between  the  tax  base  of 

assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  recognised  for  all  temporary  differences,  between  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  for 

financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases, at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or  liabilities 

settled,  based  on  those  tax  rates  which  are  enacted  or  substantively  enacted  for  each  jurisdiction.  Exceptions  are  made  for  certain 

temporary differences arising on initial recognition of an asset or a liability if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, 

that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit. 

Deferred  tax  assets  are  only  recognised  for  deductible  temporary  differences  and  unused  tax  losses  if  it  is  probable  that  future  taxable 

amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments 

in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary 

differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont’d) 

c.  

Income Tax (Cont’d) 

Current  and  deferred  tax  balances  relating  to  amounts  recognised directly  in  other  comprehensive  income  or  directly in  equity  are  also 

recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. 

Tax Consolidation 

Rectifier Technologies Limited and its Australian wholly owned subsidiaries have implemented the tax consolidation legislation for the whole 

of the financial year. Rectifier Technologies Limited is the head entity in the tax consolidated Group. The separate taxpayer within a Group 

approach has been used to allocate current income tax expense and deferred tax expense to wholly owned subsidiaries that form part of the 

tax consolidated Group. Rectifier Technologies Limited has assumed all the current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets  arising from 

unused tax losses for the tax consolidated Group via intercompany receivables and payables because a tax funding arrangement has been 

in place for the whole financial year. The amounts receivable/payable under tax funding arrangements are due upon notification by the head 

entity, which is issued soon after the end of each financial year. Interim funding notices may also be issued by the head entity to its wholly 

owned subsidiaries in order for the head entity to be able to pay tax instalments. These amounts are recognised as current intercompany 

receivables or payables (refer to note 24).

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct 

labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Overheads are applied on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs 

are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, 

less the estimated selling cost of completion and selling expenses.  

e.  

Property, Plant and Equipment 

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 

Land and Buildings 

Freehold land is not depreciated but is subject to impairment testing if there is any indication of impairment.  

Building  are  measured  on  the  cost  basis  less  depreciation  and  impairment  losses.  Historical  costs  include  costs  directly  attributable  to 

bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. 

Plant and equipment 

Plant  and  equipment  are  measured  on  the  cost  basis  less  depreciation  and  impairment  losses.  Historical  costs  include  costs  directly 

attributable  to  bringing  the  asset  to  the  location  and  condition  necessary  for  it  to  be  capable  of  operating  in  the  manner  intended  by 

management.  

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable 

that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other 

repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. 

Depreciation 

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including capitalised leased assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to 

the consolidated entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter 

of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont’d) 

e.  

Property, Plant and Equipment (Cont’d) 

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

Class of Fixed Asset 

Building 

Leasehold improvements 

Motor vehicles 

Plant and equipment 

Leased plant and equipment 

Depreciation Rate 

2% 

10% 

20% 

20-40% 

20-33% 

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

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

estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These 

gains and losses are included in profit or loss.   

f.  

Leases 

Leases  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  where  the  Group  has  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  are  classified  as 

finance  leases  and capitalised  at inception  of  the  lease  at  the fair value  of the  leased  property,  or  if  lower,  at  the  present  value  of  the 

minimum  lease  payments.  Lease  payments  are  apportioned  between  the  finance  charges  and  reduction  of  the  lease  liability  so  as  to 

achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged to profit or loss over the lease 

period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. 

Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. 

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the net asset are classified as operating leases. 

Payments made under operating leases (net of incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis 

over the period of the lease. 

Capital work-in-progress consists of property, plant and equipment for intended use as production facilities. The amount is stated at cost and 

includes  capitalisation  of  interest  incurred  on  borrowings  related  to  property,  plant  and  equipment  under  construction/installation  until  the 

property, plant and equipment are ready for their intended use. 

g.  

Impairment of Assets 

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that individual assets have been impaired. 

Where  impairment  indicators  exist,  recoverable  amount  is  determined  and  impairment  losses  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  where  the 

asset's carrying value  exceeds  its  recoverable  amount.  Recoverable  amount  is  the  higher  of  an  asset's  fair  value  less  costs  to  sell  and 

value in use. For the purpose of assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-

tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. 

Where it is not possible to estimate recoverable amount for an individual asset, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating 

unit to which the asset belongs. 

h.  

Investments and Other Financial Assets 

Financial Instruments Accounting Policy 

Financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  when  the  Group  becomes  a  party  to  the  contractual  provisions  of  the  financial 

instrument  and  are measured initially  at  fair  value  adjusted  by transactions costs,  except  for  those carried  at fair value  through  profit or 

loss, which are measured initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below. 

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset 

and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or 

expires.

NOTE 2:   

Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont’d) 

Trade and other receivables 

Loans  and  receivables  are  non-derivative  financial  assets  with  fixed  or  determinable  payments  that are  not  quoted  in  an  active  market.  

After  initial  recognition,  these  are  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective  interest  method,  less  provision  for  impairment.  

Discounting  is  omitted  where  the  effect  of  discounting  is  immaterial.    The  Group's  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  trade  and  most  other 

receivables fall into this category of financial instruments. 

Individually significant receivables are considered for impairment when they are past due or when other objective evidence is received that 

a  specific  counterparty  will  default.    Receivables  that  are  not  considered  to  be  individually  impaired  are  reviewed  for  impairment  in 

Companies, which are determined by reference to the industry and region of a counterparty and other shared credit risk characteristics.  

The impairment estimate is then based on the expected credit loss. 

Classification and measurement of financial liabilities 

The  Company’s  financial  liabilities  include  trade  and  other  payables,  borrowings  and  related  party  loans.  Financial  liabilities  are  initially 

measured  at  fair  value,  and,  where  applicable,  adjusted  for  transaction  costs  unless  the  Company  designated  a  financial  liability  at  fair 

value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest.  

All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument's fair value that are reported in profit or loss are included within 

finance costs or finance income. 

Accounting Policy applicable to comparative period (30 June 2018) 

All  investments  and  other  financial  assets  are  initially  stated  at  cost,  being  the  fair  value  of  consideration  given  plus  acquisition  costs. 

Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on trade date which is the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the 

asset.  

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements as described in 

note  1(b)  and  in  the  parent  entity  financial  information  at  cost  in  accordance  with  the  cost  alternative  permitted  in  separate  financial 

statements under AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. 

Reversals of impairment losses on equity instruments classified as available-for-sale cannot be reversed through profit or loss. Reversals 

of impairment losses on debt instruments classified as available-for-sale can be reversed through profit or loss where the reversal relates 

to an increase in the fair value of the debt instrument occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss. 

The fair value of quoted investments is determined by reference to Stock Exchange quoted market bid prices at the close of business at 

the end of the reporting period. For investments where there is no quoted market price, fair value is determined by reference to the current 

market value of another instrument which is substantially the same or is calculated based on the expected cash flows of the underlying net 

asset base of the investment. 

Loans and receivables 

Non-current  loans  and  receivables  include  loans  due  from  related  parties  repayable  within  365  days  of  the  end  of  reporting  period.  As 

these are non-interest bearing, fair value at initial recognition requires an adjustment to discount these loans using a market-rate of interest 

for a similar instrument with a similar credit rating. The discount is debited on initial recognition to the investment account. 

Impairment losses are measured as the difference between the investment's carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future 

cash flows, excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred. The cash flows are discounted at the investment's original effective 

interest rate. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTE 2:   

Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont’d) 

Trade  receivables  are  recognised  at  original  invoice  amounts  less  an  allowance  for  uncollectible  amounts  and  have  repayment  terms 

between 30 and 90 days. Collectability of trade receivables is assessed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible 

are  written  off.  An  allowance  is  made  for  doubtful  debts  where  there  is  objective  evidence  that  the  Group  will  not  be  able  to  collect  all 

amounts  due  according  to  the  original  terms.  Objective  evidence  of  impairment  includes  financial  difficulties  of  the  debtor,  default 

payments or debts more than 90 days overdue. On confirmation that the trade receivable will not be collectible the gross carrying value of 

the asset is written off against the associated provision. From time to time, the Group elects to renegotiate the terms of trade receivables 

due  from  customers  with  which  it  has  previously  had  a  good  trading  history.  Such  renegotiations  will  lead  to  changes  in  the  timing  of 

payments rather than changes to the amounts owed and are not, in the view of the directors, sufficient to require the derecognition of the 

original instrument. 

Trade receivable are recognised gross of any debtor financing facility used. 

i.  

Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances  

The functional and presentation currency of Rectifier Technologies Limited and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars ($AUD). 

Foreign  currency  transactions  are  translated  into  the  functional  currency  using  the  exchange  rates  ruling  at  the  date  of  the  transaction. 

Monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign currencies  are  retranslated  at the  rate  of  exchange  ruling  at the  end  of  reporting 

period. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settling foreign currency transactions, as well as from restating foreign currency 

denominated  monetary  assets  and  liabilities,  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss,  except  when  they  are  deferred  in  other  comprehensive 

income as qualifying cash flow hedges or where they relate to differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a 

net investment in a foreign entity. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates 

at the date when fair value was determined.  

The  functional  currency  of  the  overseas  subsidiaries  is  the  Malaysian  ringgit,  the  US  dollars  and  Singapore  dollars.  At  the  end  of  the 

reporting  period,  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  these  overseas  subsidiaries  are  translated  into  the  presentation  currency  of  Rectifier 

Technologies  Limited  at  the  closing  rate  at  the  end  of  the  reporting  period  and  income  and  expenses  are  translated  at  the  weighted 

average  exchange  rates  for  the  year.  All  resulting  exchange  differences  are  recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income  as  a  separate 

component of equity (foreign currency translation reserve). On disposal of a foreign entity, the cumulative exchange differences recognised 

in foreign currency translation reserves relating to that particular foreign operation are recognised in profit or loss. 

j.  

Employee Benefits 

Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end of the reporting 

period. Benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave and sick leave are recognised 

when  it  is  probable  that  settlement  will  be  required  and  the  liability  is  capable  of  being  measured  reliably.  Employee  benefits  that  are 

expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related 

on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to 

be made for those benefits. 

Long Service Leave 

Liabilities  for  long  service  leave  are  recognised  as  part  of  the  provision  for  employee  benefits  and  measured  as  the  present  value  of 

expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees to the end of reporting period using the projected unit 

credit  method.  Consideration  is  given  to  expect  future  salaries  and  wages  levels,  experience  of  employee  departures  and  periods  of 

service. Expected future payments are discounted using high quality corporate bonds rates at the end of the reporting period with terms to 

maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. 

k.  

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an 

outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, 

provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the 

time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

l. 

 Cash and Cash Equivalents 

For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and deposits held at call, net of any 

bank overdrafts. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, which 

are not subject to insignificant risk of changes in value and have a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. 

m.  

Revenue Recognition 

To determine whether to recognise revenue, the Group follows a 5-step process:  

1. Identifying the contract with a customer  

2. Identifying the performance obligations  

3. Determining the transaction price  

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations  

5. Recognising revenue when/as performance obligation(s) are satisfied.  

The Group often enters into transactions involving a range of the Group’s products and services, for example for the delivery of rectifiers 

and  related  after-sales  services.  In  all  cases,  the  total  transaction  price  for  a  contract  is  allocated  amongst  the  various  performance  

obligations  based  on  their  relative  stand-alone  selling  prices.  The  transaction  price  for  a  contract  excludes  any  amounts  collected  on 

behalf of third parties.  

Revenue is recognised at a point in time, when the Group satisfies performance obligations by transferring the promised services and the 

ownership of the products to the customers. 

The  Group  recognises contract  liabilities  for consideration  received  in  respect  of  unsatisfied  performance  obligations  and  reports these 

amounts  as  other  liabilities  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  Similarly,  if  the  Group  satisfies  a  performance  obligation  before  it 

receives the consideration, the Group recognises either a contract asset or a receivable in its statement of financial position, depending 

on  whether  something  other  than  the  passage  of  time  is  required  before  the  consideration  is  due.  Interest  income  is  reported  on  an 

accruals basis. Revenue arises mainly from the sale of rectifiers. This is recognized at a point in time when the performance obligation is 

satisfied and the ownership of the products have been transferred to the customers. 

Accounting Policy applicable to comparative period (30 June 2018) 

Revenue is recognised at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade 

allowances and duties and taxes paid. 

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the buyer and can be 

reliably measured. Risks and rewards are considered passed to buyer when goods have been delivered to the customer. 

Revenue from product licensing is recognised on the transfer of intellectual property in accordance with contractual obligations. 

Royalties are recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the agreement. 

Dividends are recognised when the right to receive payment is established. 

Interest  revenue  is  recognised  as  interest  accrues  using the  effective  interest method.  The  effective interest  method  uses  the  effective 

interest  rate  which  is  the  rate that  exactly  discounts  the  estimated future cash  receipts  over  the  expected life  of  the financial  asset. All 

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

R&D rebates are recognised on an accrual basis as other income once the amount can be reliably estimated. 

n.  

Trade and other Payables 

Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the year end and which are unpaid. 

These amounts are unsecured and have 30-60 day payment terms.

o. 

Interest-bearing liabilities 

All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at 

amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss 

over the period of the loans and borrowings using the effective interest method. 

All borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 

12 months after the end of the reporting period. 

p.  

Borrowing Costs 

Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that it is required to complete 

and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed when incurred. 

q.  

Goods and Services Tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses are recognised net of GST except where GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from 

the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item. 

Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  with  the  amount  of  GST  included.  The  net  amount  of  GST  recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the 

taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. 

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and 

financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows. 

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

r.  

New accounting standards and interpretations 

The following standards and interpretations have been recently issued and have been early adopted by the Group for the year ended 30 

June 2019. 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 

AASB  9  introduces  new  requirements  for  the  classification  and  measurement  of  financial  assets  and  liabilities  and  includes  a  forward-

looking ‘expected loss’ impairment model and a substantially-changed approach to hedge accounting. These requirements improve and 

simplify  the  approach  for classification  and  measurement  of  financial  assets  compared  with the  requirements  of AASB  139.    The main 

changes are: 

a) Financial assets that are debt instruments will be classified based on: (i) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the 

financial assets; and (ii) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows.  

b) Allows an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held 

for trading  in  other  comprehensive  income  (instead  of  in  profit  or  loss).   Dividends  in  respect  of these  investments  that  are  a  return on 

investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument. 

c) Introduces a ‘fair value through other comprehensive income’ measurement category for particular simple debt instruments.  

d)  Financial  assets  can  be  designated  and  measured  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  at  initial  recognition  if  doing  so  eliminates  or 

significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise from measuring assets or liabilities, or recognising the 

gains and losses on them, on different bases.  

e) Where the fair value option is used for financial liabilities the change in fair value is to be accounted for as follows:   

• 

• 

the change attributable to changes in credit risk are presented in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)  

the remaining change is presented in profit or loss If this approach creates or enlarges an accounting mismatch in the profit or 

loss, the effect of the changes in credit risk are also presented in profit or loss.

NOTE 2:   

Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont’d) 

Otherwise, the following requirements have generally been carried forward unchanged from AASB 139 into AASB 9:  

• 

• 

classification and measurement of financial liabilities; and  

derecognition requirements for financial assets and liabilities. 

There has been no material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements. 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 

AASB 15 replaces AASB 118 Revenue, AASB 111 Construction Contracts and some revenue-related Interpretations: AASB 15 

• 

• 

• 

establishes a new revenue recognition model  

changes the basis for deciding whether revenue is to be recognised over time or at a point in time  

provides  new  and  more  detailed  guidance  on  specific  topics  (e.g.  multiple  element  arrangements,  variable  pricing,  rights  of 

return, warranties and licensing)  

• 

expands and improves disclosures about revenue 

There is been no material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements. 

s.  

New accounting standards that are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Group  

AASB 16 Leases 

AASB 16 replaces AASB 117 Leases and some lease-related Interpretations. AASB 16  

• 

• 

• 

• 

requires all leases to be accounted for ‘on-balance sheet’ by lessees, other than short-term and low value asset leases  

provides new guidance on the application of the definition of lease and on sale and lease back accounting  

largely retains the existing lessor accounting requirements in AASB 117  

requires new and different disclosures about leases 

Based  on  a  detailed  assessment,  it  is  expected  that  the  first-time  adoption  of  AASB  16  for  the  year  ending  30  June  2020  will  have  a 

material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements for leases greater than 12 months, in particular: 

• 

lease assets and financial liabilities on the balance sheet will increase to 1.05 million and 1.15 million respectively (based 

on the facts at the date of the assessment) 

• 

there will be a reduction in the reported equity as the carrying amount of lease assets will reduce more quickly than the 

carrying amount of lease liabilities 

• 

the implicit interest in lease payments for former off balance sheet leases will be presented as part of finance costs rather 

than being included in operating expenses 

• 

operating  cash  outflows  will  be  lower  and  financing cash  flows  will be  higher  in the statement  of  cash  flows  as  principal 

repayments on all lease liabilities will now be included in financing activities rather than operating  activities. Interest can 

also be included within financing activities.

NOTE 2:   

Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont’d) 

s.  

New accounting standards that are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Group (Cont’d) 

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their 

short-term nature. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows 

at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments. 

t.  

Share capital 

Financial instruments issued by the Group are treated as equity only to the extent that they do not meet the definition of a financial liability. 

The  company’s  ordinary  shares  are  classified  as  equity  instruments.  Equity  instruments  issued  by  the  company  are  recorded  at  the 

proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. 

 u. 

Share-based payments 

Share-based  compensation  benefits  are  provided  to  employees  via  the  Rectifier  Technologies  Limited  Employee  Option  Plan  and  an 

employee share scheme. 

The fair value of options granted under the Rectifier Technologies Limited Employee Option Plan is recognised as an employee benefit 

expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which 

the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. 

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using the Monte-Carlo Simulation 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. The fair value of the options granted is adjusted 

to  reflect  market  vesting  conditions,  but  excludes  the  impact  of  any  non-market  vesting  conditions  (for  example,  profitability  and  sales 

growth  targets).  Non-market vesting  conditions  are  included  in  assumptions  about  the  number  of  options that  are  expected to  become 

exercisable.  The  employee  benefit  expense  recognised  each  period  takes  into  account  the  most  recent  estimate.  The  impact  of  the 

revision to the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss with a corresponding adjustment to equity.  

Under the employee share scheme, shares issued to employees for no cash consideration vest immediately on grant date. On this date, 

the market value of the shares issued is recognised as an employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in equity.  

v.  

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards 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 

consolidated  entity  makes  certain  judgements  and  assumptions  concerning  the  future.  These  estimates  and  assumptions  have  an 

inherent risk  in respect of estimates based on future events which could have a material impact on the assets and liabilities in the next 

financial year are outlined below: 

1. 

Provision for stock obsolescence 

The Group calculates the provision for stock obsolescence based on slow-moving inventory on hand for more than 12 months. 

2. 

R & D tax rebate 

The Group has recognised the R&D rebate relating to the 2019 year on an accrual basis. As the return has not yet been submitted, the 
Group has made an estimate of the likely refund amount based on the preliminary number provided by external tax consultant.

3. 

Taxation 

The Group has significant transactions between the Australian and Malaysian subsidiary and significant judgment involved in determining 
the transfer price of goods and services exchanged. Management believe the prices exchange are determined on a fair and reasonable 
basis and reflect an appropriate basis under the tax legislation of Australia and Malaysia. 

4.              Share-based payment transactions 

The  consolidated  entity  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  the  Monte Carlo  Simulation 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. 

w.  

Earnings per Share 

Basic earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to members of Rectifier Technologies Limited, adjusted for 

the after-tax effect of preference dividends on preference shares classified as equity, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares 

outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares during the year. The weighted average number of 

issued  shares  outstanding  during  the  financial year  does  not  include  shares  issued  as  part  of the Employee  Share  Loan  Plan  that are 

treated as in-substance options. 

Diluted earnings per share 

Earnings used to calculate diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the basic earnings by the after-tax effect of dividends 

and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares. The weighted average number of shares used is adjusted for the weighted 

average  number  of  ordinary  shares  that  would  be  issued  on  the  conversion  of  all  the  dilutive  potential  ordinary  shares  into  ordinary 

shares.

b. Nature and purpose of reserves  

The  foreign  currency  translation  reserve  is  used  to  record  exchange  differences  on  translation  of  foreign  controlled  subsidiaries.  The 

reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the investment is disposed of. 

c. Options 

At 30 June 2019, there were 21,640,000 (2018: 21,640,000) options outstanding. 

d. Capital risk management 

The Group's and the Parent Entity's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as  a going concern, so 

that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure 

to reduce the cost of capital. 

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. 

Consistently  with  others  in  the  industry,  the  Group  and  the  parent  entity  monitor  capital  on  the  basis  of  the  gearing  ratio.  This  ratio  is 

calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is 

calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the statement of financial position plus net debt.

In common with all other businesses, the Group and the Parent Entity are exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. 

This  note  describes  the  Group  and  the  parent  entity’s  objectives,  policies  and  processes  from  managing  those  risks  and  the  methods 

used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements. 

There  have  been  no  substantive  changes  in  the  Group  and  the  Parent  Entity’s  exposure  to  financial  instrument  risks,  its  objectives, 

policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them from previous periods unless otherwise stated in 

this note. 

a.  

Principal financial instruments 

The principal financial instruments used by the Group and the parent entity, from which financial instrument risk arises, are as follows: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

trade and other receivables 

cash and cash equivalents 

lease liabilities 

trade and other payables 

bank loans  

loan from related parties 

b.  

General objectives, policies and processes 

The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group and the parent entity’s risk management objectives and policies 

and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the 

effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group and the parent entity’s finance function. The Board receives monthly 

reports from the Chief Financial Officer through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness 

of the objectives and policies it sets. 

The overall objective of the Board is to set polices that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group and the 

parent entity’s competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

NOTE 25: 

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS RISK EXPOSURE AND MANAGEMENT (Cont’d) 

i.  

Credit risk 

Credit risk arises principally from the Group and the Parent Entity’s trade receivables. It is the risk that the counterparty fails to discharge 

its obligation in respect of the instrument. 

Prior to accepting new customers, a credit check is obtained from a reputable external source. Based on this information, credit limits and 

payment  terms  are  established.  Customers  who  subsequently  fail  to  meet  their  credit  terms  are  required  to  make  purchases  on  a 

prepayments basis until creditworthiness can be re-established. 

The nature of the Group and the parent entity’s operations means that approximately 88% (2018: 76%) of its sales are made to 5 (2018:5) 

key customers in Australia, Malaysia and America. Whilst credit risk is mainly influenced by factors specific to these individual customers, 

the concentration of sales geographically is a contributory factor. Refer to note 11 for further information regarding the Group’s credit risk.                         

ii.  

Liquidity risk 

Liquidity  risk  arises  from  the  Group  and  the  Parent  Entity’s  management  of  working  capital  and  the  finance  charges  and  principal 

repayments  on  its  debt  instruments.  It  is  the  risk  that  the  Group  and  the  parent  entity  will  encounter  difficulty  in  meeting  its  financial 

obligations as they fall due. The Group and the parent entity aim to have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become 

due. The Group and the parent entity do not have any undrawn standby credit arrangements available. Refer to note 23(b).  

The Board receives cash flow projections monthly as well as information regarding cash balances. Refer to maturity analysis in note 17. 

iii.  

Market risk 

Market risk arises from the Group and the parent entity’s use of interest bearing and foreign currency financial instruments. It is the risk 

that  the  fair  value  or  future  cash  flows  of  a  financial  instrument  will  fluctuate  because  of  changes  in  interest  rates  (interest  rate  risk), 

foreign exchange rates (currency risk) or other market factors (other price risk). 

iv.  

Interest rate risk 

The  consolidated  entity's  exposure  to  interest  rate  risk,  which  is  the  risk  that  a  financial  instrument's  value  will  fluctuate  as  a  result  of 

changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial assets and financial liabilities, is 

as follows:

NOTE 25: 

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS RISK EXPOSURE AND MANAGEMENT (Cont’d) 

The Group and the parent entity’s exposure to interest rate risk is limited to cash balances and the debtor financing facility, as these are at 

a floating rate. Interest rates on loan and lease liabilities are fixed. 

The Group’s profit and loss sensitivity and movement in the interest rates are as follows:

The  only currency  where  receivables  are  not  denominated in  their  functional  currency  is  US  dollars  (USD).  Cash  balances  in  USD  are 

kept at levels only sufficient to pay the amounts owing. Since the local sales in Malaysia are made by foreign operations in their individual 

functional currencies, there  is  no direct foreign currency  risk  exposure  involved. The  Group  and the parent  entity’s  exposure to foreign 

currency risk is primarily its exposure to trade receivables denominated in USD. The total exposure to foreign currency risk at 30 June 

2019 was as follows: Receivables in USD totalled USD$220,118 and payables totalled USD$430,623.  

The Group and the parent entity’s profit and loss sensitivity and movement in the USD: AUD exchange rates are as follows:

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the Members of Rectifier Technologies Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 

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

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

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

ended on that date; and 

b  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for opinion 

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

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

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

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Recognition of R&D tax incentive (Note 3 and 11) 

The Group receives a 43.5% refundable tax offset of eligible 
expenditure under the research and development (“R&D”) 
scheme if its turnover is less than $20 million per annum, 
provided it is not controlled by income tax exempt entities. A 
registration of R&D activities application is filed with 
AusIndustry in the following financial year, and based on this 
filing; the Group receives the incentive in cash. 
The Group engaged an R&D expert to perform a detailed 
review of the Group’s total R&D expenditure to determine the 
potential claim under the R&D tax incentive legislation. As at 
30 June 2019, a receivable of $605,801 has been recorded. 
This represents the estimated claim for the period 1 July 2018 
to 30 June 2019. 
This is a key audit matter due to the size of the receivable and 
the degree of judgement and interpretation of the R&D tax 
legislation required by management to assess the eligibility of 
the R&D expenditure under the scheme.  

Inventory valuation (Note 12) 

As at 30 June 2019, the Group holds inventory with a carrying 
amount totalling $5,577,926 and is required to carry its 
inventory, at the lower of cost or net realisable value in 
accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 102 
Inventories.  
The determination of the valuation of inventory, requires 
significant judgement. The following factors add complexity or 
increase the likelihood of errors in the determination of the 
write down to lower of cost or net realisable value: 
1 

large inventory holdings of electronic components and slow 
inventory turnover on certain lines indicate that there may 
be obsolete stock on hand; and  
the methodology of estimating inventory to be considered 
for write-down involves significant management judgment, 
including predictions about market conditions and future 
sales of certain lines.

This is a key audit matter due to the materiality of inventory 
balance and the level of management judgement required in 
determining the value of inventory. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
 Obtaining and documenting, through discussions with

management, an understanding of the process to estimate
the claim;

 Evaluating the competence, capabilities and objectivity of

management's expert;

 Reviewing and testing the R&D estimate by:

-

-

-

evaluating the methodology used by management's
expert for consistency with the R&D tax offset rules;
performing testing on a sample of R&D expenses to
supporting documents to assess eligibility and accuracy
of amounts the amounts recorded in the general ledger;
and
considering the nature of expenses against the eligibility
criteria of the R&D tax incentive scheme to assess
whether the expense included in the estimate were likely
to meet the eligibility criteria.

 Comparing the nature of the R&D expenditure included in

the current year to the prior year claim;

 Comparing the eligible expenditure used in the receivable
calculation  to expenditure recorded in the general ledger;

 Considering the entity’s history of successful claims;
 Inspecting copies of relevant correspondence with

AusIndustry and the Australian Taxation Office related to
the claims; and

 Assessing the adequacy of the relevant disclosures in the

financial statements.

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
 Understanding and documenting management's process of
calculating the inventory value and evaluating the group’s
compliance with the requirements of AASB 102 Inventories;

 Performing testing on a sample of inventory items to
assess the cost basis and net realisable value of
inventories and:

-

-

for inventory sold in the last 12 months or post year end,
tracing to sales invoice and agreeing that the selling price
exceeded the item’s cost;
for items not sold in the last 12 months, considering
whether the value of these items was adjusted for
inventory obsolescence;

 Analysing any inventory items with no movement in the last

12 months and considering whether they should be
considered for write-down and assessing their saleability in
future;

 Considering whether any other factors might indicate the

inventory items would require a write-down to net realisable
value, such as any discontinued lines;  and

 Assessing the adequacy of the related disclosures in the

financial statements.

  Revenue recognition (Note 3) 
Revenue recorded from the sale of products and services to 
customers amounted to $18,262,098 for the year ended 30 
June 2019.  
The Group enters into transactions that involve range of 
products and services. The total transaction price for a 
contract is allocated amongst the various performance 
obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. 
Revenue is recognised either at a point in time or over time, 
when (or as) the Group satisfies the performance obligations. 
The allocation of the transaction price and the determination of 
the timing of revenue recognition requires management 
judgement.  
This is a key audit matter given the management judgement 
applied in determining the appropriate recognition of revenue 
and material nature of revenue to Group’s overall 
performance.    

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
 Reviewing revenue recognition policies for appropriateness
including the initial adoption of AASB 15 Revenue from
Contracts with Customers;

 Documenting the design and testing the operating

effectiveness of the internal controls in respect to revenue
from the sales of goods;

 Performing detailed testing of a sample of revenue

transactions during the year and assessing whether
revenue has been recognised in accordance with AASB 15,
which included;
- Reviewing the relevant contracts with customers;
- Assessing management’s determination of performance
obligations within contracts and the allocation of the
transaction price to those obligations;

 Evaluating sales transactions around reporting date to

assess whether revenue is recognised the correct periods;

 Performing analytical procedures to assess revenue

recognised against known business factors, and investigate
variances; and

 Assessing the adequacy of related disclosures in the

financial statements.

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.
