The Group recorded revenue of US$11.80m, an improvement of 16% on FY19.  Pleasingly the gross profit increased by 
37% to US$5.67m with the gross margin increasing from 41% to 48%. Gross margins improved in the second half of FY20 
from 40% in the first half to 59%, which was in line with expectation as result of improved product mix and supply chain cost 
improvements. 

Underlying EBIT losses were reduced by 61% on FY19 to US$3.71m. A significant contributor to the improved results was 
a  major  restructure  of  the  IOTS  division  together  with  lesser  restructuring  activities  in  Microdevices  and  Group corporate 
resulting in total annualized operating expenses being reduced by US$3.0m. As a result of the restructure in IOTS, the Group 
incurred a restructure cost which was finalised at US$1.22m representing redundancy and legal expenses. These have been 
removed from statutory EBIT to arrive at underlying EBIT and Underlying Loss after Income Tax. 

The Group also benefited from reductions in cost and cash expenditure from April to July due to COVID-19 initiated pay 
reductions and received additional cash through the US Payroll Protection Program and the German Short Time Program.  

The carrying value of goodwill on the IOTS business resulting from the nanotron acquisition was reassessed in the current 
market environment and an impairment of US$1.89m was booked. This has been removed from statutory EBIT to arrive at 
underlying EBIT and Underlying Loss after Income Tax. 

Depreciation  charges  increased  from  US$0.12m  to  US$0.98m  primarily  due  to  additional  equipment  purchased  under 
existing equipment lease, and the treatment by the new lease accounting standard (AASB16).

30 June 2020 

In September 2019, the Group replaced a US$1.96m invoice financing facility with a US$4.33m four-year secured debt facility 
with an interest rate of 11.75%. Finance costs increased in FY20 as a result. 

Cash balances at the end of the reporting period were US$1.40m compared to US$0.84m at the end of the previous reporting 
period. Net cash used in operating activities was US$3.07m (2019: US$8.16m) was largely funded by the financing activities 
described above, a US$2.15m capital raising as well as COVID-19 initiated government programs. 

Segmented business performance 

IOT Solutions (IOTS) 

Revenues were US$6.99m slightly above the US$6.76m recorded in the previous year. The division saw strong revenues in 
the first half of the year and declines in the second half as the Zoetis chip agreement concluded together with some customer 
delays due to the impact of COVID-19. 

The gross margin improved dramatically and ended the year at 67% in line with the company’s expectation. This was primarily 
driven by the completion of the Zoetis chip agreement in January which was partially replaced with infrastructure (anchors 
and  software)  components  at  higher  margins. These  products  also  benefited  from  cost reductions  undertaken  during  the 
year including a manufacture transition to Thailand.   

A  significant  restructure  occurred  in  December  2019  to  align  costs  with  the  near-term  revenue  projections.  Annualized 
operating  expenses  for  IOTS  were  reduced  by  US$2.0m  to  US$2.5m  thereby  allowing  the  division  to  operate  profitably 
(before allocation of corporate costs) at annualised revenue of US$4.0m.  

Operating costs were further reduced in April 2020 with reduced salaries and general expenses due to the stay at home 
initiative but have unwound as normal office arrangements have now resumed.  Some of this increase is offset by lower 
office expenses as the division has moved into smaller more efficient and cost-effective office space. 

MicroDevices (MD) 

MD was deemed an essential business and operated throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and it has continued its significant 
growth with FY20 revenues of US$4.81m constituting a 41% increase year on year. With the additional products continuing 
to ramp, this business is expected to structurally grow in FY21.  

The  division  diversified  its  relationship  with  its  top  customer,  Abiomed,  across  multiple  products  and  expanded  beyond 
delivering a MEMS structure to also doing micro assembly work and manufacturing full sensor solutions. MD is now in a 
position where it is consistently delivering these products at good yields and volumes laying the groundwork for business 
expansion after a slower 2nd half.  

Multiple customers in the biomed market were progressed during this time including the delivery of a COVID sensor.. The 
COVID  sensor  is  still  in  preproduction,  but  significant  progress  has  been  made  towards  full  production  and  customer 
submission for FDA approval is expected shortly. MD expects to improve yield and ramp this product into full production 
leading to increased revenue and greater fabrication utilization to drive divisional profitability throughout FY21.  

The  company  further  diversified  its  customers  with  engagements  in embedded  glucose  monitoring  sensors, autonomous 
vehicle optical sensors and quantum computing components. These activities generated material non-recurring engineering 
(NRE) based revenue with the prospect of production revenue during FY21.

Finance 

In  September  2019,  the  Group  replaced  a  US$1.95m  invoice  financing  facility  with  a  US$4.32m  (equivalent to  A$6.40m) 
four-year secured debt facility with an interest rate of 11.75%. The secured debt facility arrangements included the grant of 
35,555,556 warrants to acquire ordinary shares at a price of A$0.18. The fair value of these warrants as at grant date was 
included in borrowing costs to be amortised over the facility term. 

In May 2020, a further 51,200,000 warrants to acquire ordinary shares at a price of A$0.03 were issued to the secured debt 
lenders in exchange for waiving financial covenants and other concessions under the facility. In substance and pursuant to 
the  accounting  standards  this  represented  a  debt  extinguishment  event  resulting  in  US$1.56m  additional  financing  cost 
comprising the fair value of the warrants as at grant date and the existing unamortised borrowing costs being written off. This 
was  partly  offset  by  the  recognition  of  a  fair  value  gain  of  US$0.45m  attributable  to  the  measurement  of  the  principal 
outstanding as at restructure date discounted to its present value using the effective interest rate.   

Outlook 

Post the end of the year and leading up to the release of this report, the Group decided it was in the best interest of 
shareholders to sell the IoT Solutions business and focus the Group’s efforts and capital towards the leading edge MEMs 
sensor business. This transaction has significantly improved the capital structure with all debt now repaid while still holding 
on to some cash to support working capital requirements. The Group is well positioned to become profitable through 
prudent capital and people investments to take advantage of growth opportunities.

(b) Remuneration policy and link to performance 

Our remuneration and nomination committee is made up of non-executive directors, with the CEO’s participation by invitation. 
The committee reviews and determines our remuneration annually to ensure it remains aligned to business needs, and meets 
our remuneration principles. The committee may also engage external remuneration consultants to assist with this review. 
In particular, the board aims to ensure that remuneration practices are: 

● 
● 
● 
● 

 competitive and reasonable, enabling the Group to attract and retain key talent, 
 aligned to the Group's strategic and business objectives and the creation of shareholder value, 
 transparent and easily understood, and 
 acceptable to shareholders.

Assessing performance 

The remuneration and nomination committee is responsible for assessing performance against KPIs and determining the 
STI and LTI to be paid. To assist in this assessment, the committee may elect to receive data from independently run surveys. 

Performance is monitored in detailed quarterly operations reviews throughout the year and a formal extensive evaluation is 
performed annually. 

Share trading policy 

Sensera Limited's securities trading policy applies to all directors and executives. See www.sensera.com and follow the link 
to the 'board charter'. It only permits the purchase or sale of company securities during certain periods. 

(c) Elements of remuneration 

(i) Fixed annual remuneration (FR) 

Key  management  personnel  may  receive  their  fixed  remuneration  as  cash,  or  cash  with  non-monetary  benefits  such  as 
health insurance and car allowances. FR is reviewed annually, or on promotion. It is benchmarked against market data for 
comparable roles in companies in a similar industry and with similar market capitalization. The committee aims to position 
executives at or near the median, with flexibility to take into account capability, experience, value to the organization and 
performance of the individual. 

(ii) Short-term incentives (STI) 

All executives are entitled to participate in a short-term incentive scheme which provides for executive employees to receive 
a combination of short-term incentive (STI) as part of their total remuneration if they achieve certain performance indicators 
as set by the board. The STI can be paid either by cash, or a combination of cash and the issue of equity in the company, at 
the determination of the remuneration and nomination committee and ultimately the board.  

The Group's CEO and CFO are entitled to short-term incentives in the form of cash bonus up to 100% and 35%, respectively 
of FR against agreed key performance indicators (KPIs). On an annual basis, KPIs are reviewed and agreed in advance of 
each financial year and include total shareholder return, financial and operational outcomes. 

(iii) Long-term incentives (LTI) 

Executives  may  also  be  provided  with  longer-term  incentives  through  the  Group's  'employee  security  ownership  plan' 
(ESOP), that was approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 13 November 2017. The aim of the ESOP 
is to allow executives to participate in, and benefit from, the growth of the Group as a result of their efforts and to assist in 
motivating and retaining those key employees over the long-term. Continued service is the condition attached to the vesting 
of the options. The board at its discretion determines the total number of options granted to each executive. 

The  CEO's  remuneration  package  includes  the  following  milestone-based  share-based  payments  whereby  the milestone 
must be achieved by 30 June 2021: 

● 
● 
● 

 1,000,000 shares payable on achieving US$1 million EBITDA 
 1,000,000 shares payable on achieving US$2 million EBITDA 
 1,000,000 shares payable on achieving US$50 million in annual sales 

Refer to the table on page 16 for details of options issued to the CEO and CFO. These options do not have milestone hurdles 
attached but do have continued service conditions.

(d) Link between remuneration and performance 

Statutory performance indicators 

We aim to align our executive remuneration to our strategic and business objectives and the creation of shareholder wealth. 
The table below shows measures of the Group's financial performance since inception (as the business has been established 
less  than  five  years  as  required  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001).  However,  these  are  not  necessarily  consistent  with  the 
measures used in determining the variable amounts of remuneration to be awarded to KMPs. As a consequence, there may 
not always be a direct correlation between the statutory key performance measures and the variable remuneration awarded.

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
Non-executive directors remuneration 
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands and responsibilities of their role.  

ASX listing rules require the aggregate non-executive directors' remuneration (fee pool) to be determined periodically by a 
general  meeting.  Since  listing  in  2016,  the  maximum  aggregate  non-executive  director  remuneration  has  been  set  at 
a A$300,000 per annum. For the year ended 30 June 2020, fees paid to non-executive directors were A$156,250 being 52% 
of the maximum fee pool.  
Voting and comments made at the Company's 25 November 2019 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') 
At the 25 November 2019 AGM, 82.26% of the votes received supported the adoption of the remuneration report for the year 
ended 30 June 2019. The Company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM regarding its remuneration practices.

Insurance of officers 
The Company has indemnified the directors and executives of the Company for costs incurred, in their capacity as a director 
or executive, for which they may be held personally liable, except where there is a lack of good faith. 

During the financial year, the Company paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the directors and executives of the 
Company  against  a  liability  to  the  extent  permitted  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  The  contract  of  insurance  prohibits 
disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium. 

Indemnity of auditor 
The Company has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the 
Company or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor. 

During the financial year, the Company has not paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the Company 
or any related entity. 

Proceedings on behalf of the Company 
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf 
of the Company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility 
on behalf of the Company for all or part of those proceedings. 

Non-audit services 
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor 
are outlined in Note 30 to the financial statements. 

The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another 
person or firm on the auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the 
Corporations Act 2001. 

The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in Note 30 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 
● 

 all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity 
of the auditor; and 
 none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code 
of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including 
reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, 
acting as advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

Note 1. Operating segments 

(a) Description of segments and principal activities 
Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, under 
the advisement of the full board, that are used to make strategic decisions, assess performance and determine the allocation 
of resources. 

Management  considers  the  business  from  both  a  product/service  and  a  geographic  perspective  and  has  identified  two 
reportable segments. 

● 

● 

 MicroDevices: representing the integrated, fast turnaround client-specific designing and manufacturing of specialised 
high-performance microsensors and micro-fabricated components based in Boston, United States. 

 IoT solutions (IOTS): representing the embedded location platform which delivers location awareness for safety and 
productivity solutions across industrial and consumer markets. The platform consists of chips, modules and software 
that  enable  precise  real-time  positioning  and  concurrent  wireless  communication.  The  ubiquitous  proliferation  of 
interoperable platforms is creating the location-aware internet of things (IoT). The IoT solutions business segment is 
based in Berlin, Germany.

Revenue from the sale of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and location awareness products are recognised at a 
point in time. The performance obligation is satisfied when the customer has access and thus control of the product. This 
occurs at the time of delivery of goods to the customer. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific 
location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted 
the  products  in  accordance  with  the  sales  contract,  the  acceptance  provisions  have  lapsed,  or  the  Group  has  objective 
evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied. 

(ii) Services 

Revenue from the provision of engineering services is recognised over time in the accounting period in which the services 
are rendered. 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 labour hours spent relative to the total expected labour hours. 

Some  contracts  include  multiple  deliverables.  In  this  case,  the  transaction  price  will  be  allocated  to  each  performance 
obligation based on the relative stand-alone selling prices. Where these are not directly observable, they are estimated based 
on expected cost plus margin. 

Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting 
increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances 
that give rise to the revision become known by management. 

In  the  case  of  fixed-price  contracts,  the  customer  pays  the  fixed  amount  based  on  a  payment  schedule.  If  the  services 
rendered by the Group exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the services rendered, 
a contract liability is recognised. 

If  the  contract  includes  an  hourly  fee,  revenue  is  recognised  in  the  amount  to  which  the  Group  has  a  right  to  invoice. 
Customers are invoiced on a monthly basis and consideration is payable when invoiced. 

Critical judgments in allocating the transaction price 

Revenue relating to the provision of services is recognised based on managements' best estimate of forecast final costs 
required to complete the service and the forecast final margin. Management reviews these forecasts on a regular basis and 
adjusts revenue recognised when there are material changes. 

(iii) Financing components 

The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services 
to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the 
transaction prices for the time value of money.

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 
Trade  receivables  are  generally  due  for  settlement  in  accordance  with  the  milestones  specified  in  the  non-recurring 
engineering (NRE) contracts with customers, and settlement for goods delivered to customers, which are both typically less 
than 12 months and therefore classified as current. Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration 
that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognised at fair value. The Group 
holds the trade receivables with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently 
at amortised cost using the effective interest method.  

Details about the Group’s impairment policies and the calculation of the loss allowance are provided in Note 22 (Financial 
risk management) section b (credit risk). 

(ii) Fair value of trade and other receivables 

Due to the short-term nature of the current receivables, their carrying amount is considered to be the same as their fair value. 

(iii) Impairment and risk exposure 

Information about the impairment of trade receivables and the Group’s exposure to credit risk and foreign currency risk can 
be found in Note 22 Financial risk management.

Note 8. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities (continued) 

(c) The Groups leasing activities and how these leases are accounted for: 

The Group has adopted AASB 16 Leases during the year ended 30 June 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. 
The modified retrospective approach does not require restatement of comparative periods. Instead the cumulative impact of 
applying AASB 16 is accounted for as an adjustment to equity at the start of the current accounting period in which it is first 
applied, known as the 'date of initial application'. 

For any new contracts entered into on or after 1 July 2019, the Group considers whether a contract is, or contains a lease. 
A lease is defined as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a 
period of time in exchange for consideration’. To apply this definition the Group assesses whether the contract meets three 
key evaluations which are whether: 

● 

● 

● 

 the contract contains an identified asset, which is either explicitly identified in the contract or implicitly specified by being 
identified at the time the asset is made available to the Group, 
 the Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset throughout 
the period of use, considering its rights within the defined scope of the contract, 
 the Group has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Group assess whether 
it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of use. 

Leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available 
for use by the Group. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is 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. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on 
a straight-line basis. 

Leasehold property 
Plant and equipment 

 Straight line 

 2.75 years 
 2 years 

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net 
present value of the following lease payments: 

● 
● 
● 
● 

 fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable 
 amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees 
 the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and 
 payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option. 

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be determined, or the Group’s 
incremental borrowing rate. The Group's incremental borrowing rate was 11.75% as of 1 July 2019. The Group has assessed 
the option to extend these leases and has determined that these options will not be exercised.   

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: 

● 
● 
● 
● 

 the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability, 
 any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received, 
 any initial direct costs, and 
 restoration costs. 

Changes to the Group’s accounting policies and the initial impact on financial statements arising from the adoption of AASB16 
are  set  out  in  Note  35  (Changes  in  accounting  policies).  A  description  of  the  lease  accounting  policies  for  the  previous 
financial year are also set out in Note 35 (Changes in accounting policies).

Note 8. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities (continued) 

(d) Lease payments not recognised as a liability  

 The Group has elected not to recognise a lease liability for short-term leases or leases of low value assets. 

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an 
expense in the profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. The lease expense, 
relating to lease payments not included in the measurement of the lease liability is US$702,753 (2019:1,508,959). These 
costs are included under the headings of occupancy costs and equipment lease and associated costs (Refer Note; 3)

(i) Depreciation methods and useful lives 

Property, plant and equipment is recognised at historical cost less depreciation. 

Depreciation  is  calculated  using  the  straight-line  method  to  allocate  their  cost  or  revalued  amounts,  net  of  their  residual 
values, over their estimated useful lives or, in the case of leasehold improvements and certain leased plant and equipment, 
the shorter lease term as follows:

Impairment tests for goodwill, software and capitalised development costs: 

The Group tests whether goodwill, software (a not yet ready for use intangible asset) and capitalised development costs 
(an indefinite life intangible asset) have suffered any impairment on an annual basis. All of these assets are allocated to the 
IOTS CGU/Segment.The recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (CGU) was determined based on estimated fair 
value less costs of disposal. The fair value, based on the fair value hierarchy in Note 15, is considered to be level 3 as it is 
a Director’s valuation of the required return for its nanotron (IOTS) business. This valuation was based on the fair value 
less costs of disposal (FVLCD) method which was used over the value in use (VIU) due to the business being in start up 
and loss making with the Directors’ belief that the FVLCD method provided the more appropriate valuation. 

Estimates  and  judgements  are  continually  evaluated  and  are  based  on  historical  experience  and  other  factors,  including 
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Group and that are believed to be reasonable under 
the circumstances.

Refer to note 22 for further information on financial risk management. 

(i) Secured loan at fair value 
In September 2019, the Group secured a A$6,400,000 (equivalent to US$4,325,972) four-year secured loan facility with the 
interest rate of 11.75%, under a binding term sheet with PURE Asset Management Pty Ltd and Altor Credit Partners Pty Ltd 
(a wholly owned subsidiary of Altor Capital Pty Ltd). Both are unrelated parties to the Group. These arrangements included 
the grant of 35,555,556 warrants to the lenders to acquire ordinary shares in the Group (See Note 18(iii) for warrant details). 
Borrowing  costs  comprising  the  fair  value  of  the  warrants  as  at  grant  date  US$800,971  and  other  transaction  costs 
US$163,131 were being amortised over the term of the loan using the effective interest method.  
Secured loan refinancing event 
In May 2020, a further 51,200,000 warrants to acquire ordinary shares (See Note 18(iii) for warrant details) were issued to 
the secured debt lenders in exchange for waiving financial covenants and other concessions under the facility including the 
interest for the three months ended 8 April 2020 totalling US$125,534. This debt extinguishing event resulted in an additional 
debt financing cost of US$1,555,742 comprising the fair value of the warrants as at grant date and the existing unamortised 
borrowing costs being written off. This was partly offset by the recognition of a fair value gain of US$444,687 attributable to 
the measurement of the principal outstanding as at restructure date discounted to its present value using the incremental 
borrowing rate.   

(ii) Promissory notes 
Promissory notes (unsecured) comprise a debt agreement with a key investor and a related entity of Mr Jonathan Tooth, a 
director of Sensera Limited. Entered into during February and March 2019, the lenders provided US$1,000,000 to fund the 
Group's immediate needs for additional working capital. US$650,000 was provided by Mr Tooth with the key investor providing 
the US$350,000 balance. These promissory notes were due to mature in February 2020 and had an interest rate of 10% p.a. 
(payable quarterly). In October 2019, these notes were extended for a term of 24 month with a simple interest rate of 11.75% 
p.a. (payable quarterly), with an option to extend if agreed by both parties, indefinitely. The unsecured notes are subordinate 
to the company’s current senior lender, PURE Asset Management Pty Ltd and Altor Capital Pty Ltd. 

(iii) Invoice financing 
This loan had been fully paid and closed during the year ended 30 June 2020. Invoice financing comprised a credit agreement 
with invoice and supply chain finance provider, Timelio Pty Ltd, against working capital assets of the parent. This facility had 
a limit of A$3M and the applicable interest rate was 1% per 30-day period with a 1% plus GST drawdown fee. A guarantee 
over all the assets of the Group was attached to this facility.

Note 13. Borrowings (continued) 

(iv) Fair value 
The fair values of borrowings at amortised cost are not materially different to their carrying amounts, since the interest payable 
on those borrowings is close to current market rates and all borrowings are classified as current. Borrowings due within 12 
months equal their carrying amounts as the impact of discounting is not material. 

(v) Risk exposures 
Details of the Group’s exposure to risks arising from borrowings are set out in Note 22 (Financial risk management).

All warrants are held by PURE Asset Management Pty Ltd and Altor Capital Management Pty Ltd. Tranche I and Tranche II 
were granted as part of the initial secured loan arrangements Tranche III was granted as part of subsequent secured loan 
refinancing arrangements. Refer Note 13 – Borrowings. 
The warrants are all considered to be derivative financial instruments, revalued to fair value at the end of the reporting 
period in accordance with the accounting standards. The fair value of the warrants as at their respective grant dates were 
treated as costs associated with arranging and the subsequent refinancing of the secured loan facility referred to above.  
Any gain or loss arising as a result of fair value  revaluations subsequent to grant date were recognised in the statement of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income under the heading of Gain/(loss) on remeasurement of warrant derivatives. 
Refer to Note 22 for further information on financial risk management. 

Refer to Note 15 for further information on recognised fair value measurements. 

Note 15. Recognised fair value measurements 

Fair value hierarchy 
The following table provides the fair values of the Group's financial instruments measured and recognised on a recurring 
basis  after  initial  recognition  and  their  categorisation  within  the  fair  value  hierarchy.  To  provide  an  indication  about  the 
reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels 
prescribed under the accounting standards. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 15. Recognised fair value measurements (continued) 

Level  1:  The  fair  value  of  financial  instruments  traded  in  active  markets  (such  as  publicly  traded  derivatives  and  equity 
securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial 
assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1. 
Level  2:  The  fair  value  of  financial  instruments  that  are  not  traded  in  an  active  market  (for  example,  over-the-  counter 
derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as 
possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument 
is included in level 2. 
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. 
This is the case for unlisted equity securities.

Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period necessary to match them

in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. The US Payroll Protection Program was the largest component and comprises the 
liability above. These amounts are not considered to be income due to the uncertainties around the process still required to

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 21. Critical estimates and judgements 

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the 
actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Group’s accounting policies. 

This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which 
are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be wrong. Detailed information 
about  each  of  these  estimates  and  judgements  is  included  in  other  notes  together  with  information  about  the  basis  of 
calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements. 

(a) Significant estimates and judgements 

The areas involving significant estimates or judgements are: 

● 
● 

● 
● 
● 
● 
● 
● 

● 
● 

● 

 Estimation of revenue relating to the provision of services. Refer to Note 2 (Revenue). 
 Estimated goodwill, software and capitalised development costs impairment and estimated useful lives to determine 
amortisation. Refer to Note 11(Intangible assets). 
 Estimation of expected credit losses on trade receivables. 
 Estimation of share-based payments. 
 Estimation of the valuation of warrant derivatives. 
 Evaluation of going concern. Refer to Note 34 (Summary of significant accounting policies). 
 Estimate of property, plant and equipment useful lives. Refer to Note 10 (Property, plant and equipment).  
 Determination of incremental borrowing rate and the inclusion of lease extension options. Refer to Note 8 (Right-of -
use assets and lease liabilities) and Note 35 (Changes in accounting policies). 
 Determination of fair value of secured loans post extinguishing event. Refer to Note 13 (Borrowings). 
 Assessing whether or not the grant conditions had been fully satisfied for the US Payroll Protection Program funding 
received. Refer Note 17 (Other liabilities – government).  
The impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is ongoing and it is not practicable to determine the potential impact 
positive or negative after the reporting date. 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including 
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Group and that are believed to be reasonable under 
the circumstances.

Financial risk management objectives 
This  note  explains  the  Group's  exposure  to  financial  risks  and  how  these  risks  could  affect  the  Group’s  future  financial

hedge financial risks (if required) in close co-operation with the Group's operating units. This process includes reviewing the 
effectiveness of internal controls relating to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

(b) Credit risk 
Credit  risk  arises  from  cash  and  cash  equivalents  with  banks  and  financial  institutions,  as  well  as  credit  exposures  to 
customers who are public and private organisations in the technology industry, including outstanding receivables. 

(i) Risk management 

Credit risk is managed through the maintenance of procedures (such as the utilisation of systems for the approval, granting 
and  renewal  of  credit  limits,  regular  monitoring  of  exposures  against  such  limits  and  monitoring  the  financial  stability  of 
significant customers and counterparties), ensuring to the extent possible that customers and counterparties to transactions 
are of sound credit worthiness. Such monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment. 

The Group's customer base consists of public sectors, listed companies in the United States and large and reputable private 
entities. Management maintain a close relationship with their customers' executives and senior management to ensure that 
milestones specified in the contracts are met in a timely manner. Management updates its cost forecasts on a regular basis 
for all on-going contracts. 

Risk is also minimised through investing surplus funds in financial institutions that maintain a high credit rating. 

(ii) Impairment of financial assets 

The Group  has  one  type  of  financial  asset  subject  to  the  expected  credit  loss  model  being  trade receivables  for  sales  of 
inventory and from the provision of engineering services. 

While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements of AASB 9, the identified impairment loss 
was immaterial 

Trade receivables and contract assets 

The Group applies the AASB 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses (ECL) which uses a lifetime expected 
loss allowance for all trade receivables. 

To measure the ECL, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past 
due. 

The  ECL  rates  are  based  on  the  payment  profiles  of  sales  over  a  period  of  36  months  before  30  June  2020  and  the 
corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current 
and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables.

Sensera Limited 
Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 22. Financial risk management (continued) 

On that basis, the loss allowance as at 30 June 2020 from the ECL method was determined to be US$ 27,011 (2019: US$ 
39,454). This amount was ascertained based on an individual client analysis; the identified loss beyond this at a portfolio 
level was determined to be immaterial. 

Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable 
expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan with the Group, and 
a failure to make contractual payments for a period of greater than 121 days past due. 

Impairment  losses  on  trade  receivables  are  presented  as  net  impairment  losses  within  operating  profit.  Subsequent 
recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item. 

(c) Liquidity risk 

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its 
obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group manages this risk through the following mechanisms: 

● 
● 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 preparing forward looking cash flow analyses in relation to its operating, investing and financing activities; 
 obtaining funding from a variety of sources; 
 maintaining a reputable credit profile; 
 managing credit risk related to financial assets; 
 investing cash and cash equivalents and deposits at call with major financial institutions; and 
 comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with the realisation profile of financial assets.

Note 23. Capital management 

(a) Risk management 

The Group'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 
 maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. 

 Management assesses the Group’s capital requirements in order to maintain an efficient overall financing structure while 
avoiding excessive leverage. The Group manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes 
in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. 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. 

As  at  30  June  2020,  the  Group  had  a  total  credit  facility  capacity  of  US$5,412,000  (2019:  US$3,100,000)  of  which 
US$5,412,000 was drawn down (2019: US$2,466,064) with several external parties, including a related party.

(i) Fair value of options granted 

The assessed fair value of options at grant date was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into 
account  the exercise price,  term  of the  option,  security  price  at  grant  date  and  expected price  volatility  of  the  underlying 
security, the expected dividend yield, the risk-free interest rate for the term of the security and certain probability assumptions. 

There were no options granted during the year ended 30 June 2020, however, the following options were first recognised 
during the year ended 30 June 2020. The model inputs for these options included:

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies 

This  note  provides  a  list  of  the  significant  accounting  policies  adopted  in  the  preparation  of  these  consolidated  financial 
statements  to  the  extent  they  have  not  already  been  disclosed  in  the  other  notes  above.  These  policies  have  been 
consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the Group consisting 
of Sensera Limited and its subsidiaries. 

(a) 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 and the Corporations Act 2001. Sensera Limited is a 
for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. 

(i) Compliance with IFRS 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  of  the  Sensera  Limited  Group  also  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). 

(ii) Historical cost convention 

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for warrant liabilities that are held at fair value. 
Refer to Note 14 Warrant liabilities). 

(iii) Going concern 

The annual report has been prepared on a going concern basis. 

For  the  year  ended  30  June  2020,  the  Group  incurred  a  net  loss  of  US$8,330,555,  had  operating  cash  outflows  of 
US$3,068,872  and  had  a  net  current  asset  deficiency  of  $2,550,119.  As  at  30  June  2020,  the  Group's  cash  and  cash 
equivalents  balance  was  US$1,395,057. These  conditions  would  indicate  a material  uncertainty  that  may  cast  significant 
doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. However, subsequent to the end of the reporting period and 
as disclosed in Note 27, the Group has sold its wholly owned subsidiary nanotron Technologies GmbH. This transaction has 
strengthened the Group’s financial position and cash flow projections over the ensuing 12 months from the date of this report, 
to the extent the Board considers that sufficient funds exist to enable the Group to pay its debts as and when they fall due 
for at least the next 12 months from the date of this report. In the event, future funding is required to grow the business, the 
Group is now debt free and has previously demonstrated capacity to raise funds in debt and equity markets.  

(iv) New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 

The  Group  has  applied  the  following  standards  and  amendments  for  the  first  time  for  their  annual  reporting  period 
commencing 1 July 2019:

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(b) Principles of consolidation 
(i) Subsidiaries 

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured 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 deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. 

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

(c) Segment reporting 
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision 
maker. This has been identified as the chief executive officer. 

(d) Foreign currency translation 
(i)  Functional and presentation currency 

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary 
economic  environment  in  which  the  entity  operates  ('the  functional  currency').  The  consolidated  financial  statements  are 
presented in US dollars (US$), which is Sensera Limited's presentation currency due to a significant portion of its operations 
including head office being located in the United States. The functional currency of the parent is the Australian dollar (A$), 
which is different to its presentation currency of US dollars. 

(ii) Transactions and balances 

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

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, 
within finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss 
on a net basis within other gains/(losses). 

Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date 
when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part 
of the fair value gain or loss. For example, translation differences on non-monetary assets and liabilities such as equities 
held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss and translation 
differences on non-monetary assets such as equities classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income are 
recognised in other comprehensive income. 

(iii) Group companies 

The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that 
have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: 

● 

● 

● 

 assets and liabilities for each consolidated statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at 
the date of that consolidated statement of financial position 
 income and expenses for each consolidated statement of profit or loss and consolidated statement of profit or loss and 
other comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation 
of  the  cumulative  effect  of  the  rates  prevailing  on  the  transaction  dates,  in  which  case  income  and  expenses  are 
translated at the dates of the transactions), and 
 all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

On  consolidation,  exchange  differences  arising  from  the  translation  of  any  net  investment  in  foreign  entities,  and  of 
borrowings  and  other  financial  instruments  designated  as  hedges  of  such  investments,  are  recognised  in  other 
comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, 
the associated exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale. 

(e) Revenue recognition 
The accounting policies for the Group’s revenue from contracts with customers are explained in Note 2 (Revenue). 

(f) Income tax 
The  income  tax  expense  or  credit  for  the  period  is  the  tax  payable  on  the  current  period's  taxable  income based  on  the 
applicable  income  tax  rate  for  each  jurisdiction  adjusted  by  changes  in  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  attributable  to 
temporary differences and to unused tax losses. 

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the 
reporting  period  in  the  countries  where  the  company  and  its  subsidiaries  and  associates  operate  and  generate  taxable 
income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax  
regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be 
paid to the tax authorities. 

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of 
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are 
not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises 
from  initial  recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability  in  a  transaction  other  than  a  business  combination  that  at  the  time  of  the 
transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) 
that  have  been  enacted  or  substantially  enacted  by  the  end of  the  reporting  period and are  expected  to  apply  when  the 
related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. 

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

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

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

Current  and  deferred  tax  is  recognised  in  profit  or  loss,  except  to  the  extent  that  it  relates  to  items  recognised  in  other 
comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly 
in equity, respectively.

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(g) Right-of-use assets 

Leases 

A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which 
comprises  the  initial  amount  of  the  lease  liability,  adjusted  for,  as  applicable,  any  lease  payments made at  or  before  the 
commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the 
cost  of  inventories,  an estimate  of  costs  expected  to  be  incurred  for  dismantling  and  removing  the  underlying  asset,  and 
restoring the site or asset. 

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful 
life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the Group expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the 
lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for 
any remeasurement of lease liabilities.  

Lease liabilities 

A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present 
value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, 
if  that  rate  cannot  be  readily  determined,  the  Group's  incremental  borrowing  rate.  Lease  payments  comprise  of  fixed 
payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected 
to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably 
certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or 
a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. 

Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured 
if  there  is  a  change  in  the  following:  future  lease  payments  arising  from  a  change  in  an  index  or  a  rate  used;  residual 
guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an 
adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset 
is fully written down. 

(h) Impairment of assets 
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life and intangible assets not yet ready for use 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 assets are tested 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. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of 
disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there 
are  separately  identifiable  cash  inflows  which  are  largely  independent  of  the  cash  inflows from  other  assets  or  groups  of 
assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible 
reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period. 

(i) Cash and cash equivalents 
For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows, 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, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the consolidated 
statement of financial position. 

(j) Trade and other receivables 
Trade  receivables  are  recognised  initially  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 
interest method, less loss allowance.  

See Note 6 (Trade and other receivables) for further information about the Group’s accounting for trade receivables and Note 
22 (Financial risk management) for a description of the Group's impairment policies.

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(k) Inventories 
Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a 'first in first 
out' basis. Cost comprises of direct materials and delivery costs, direct labour, import duties and other taxes, an appropriate 
proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure based on normal operating capacity, and, where applicable, transfers 
from  cash  flow  hedging  reserves  in  equity.  Costs  of  purchased  inventory  are  determined  after  deducting  rebates  and 
discounts received or receivable. 

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion 
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. 

(I) lnvestments and other financial assets 

(i) Classification 

From 1 July 2018, the Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: 

● 

● 

 those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through Other comprehensive income (OCI) or through profit 
or loss), and 
 those to be measured at amortised cost. 

The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the 
cash flows. 

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For investments in equity 
instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election at the time 
of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). 

(ii) Recognition and derecognition 

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the Group commits to 
purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets 
have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. 

(iii) Measurement 

At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair 
value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. 
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss. 

(iv) Impairment 

The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at 
amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase 
in credit risk. 

(v) Income recognition Interest income 

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. When a receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the 
carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest 
rate  of  the  instrument,  and  continues  unwinding  the  discount  as  interest  income.  Interest  income  on  impaired  loans  is 
recognised using the original effective interest rate.  

(m) 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.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

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. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. 
All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred. 

The depreciation methods and periods used by the Group are disclosed in Note 10 Property, plant and equipment. 

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

An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater 
than its estimated recoverable amount. Refer to Note 34(h) (Summary of significant accounting policies). 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or 
loss.  
(n) Intangible assets 

(i) Goodwill 

Goodwill  on  acquisitions  of  subsidiaries  is  included  in  intangible  assets.  Goodwill  is  not  amortised  but  it  is  tested  for 
impairment  annually,  or  more  frequently  if  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  it  might  be  impaired,  and  is 
carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount 
of goodwill relating to the entity sold. 

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cash- 
generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the 
goodwill  arose.  The  units  or  groups  of  units  are  identified  at  the  lowest  level  at  which  goodwill  is  monitored  for  internal 
management purposes, being the operating segments. 

(ii) Capitalised development costs 

Capitalised development costs assets with an indefinite life and are shown at historical cost.  Capitalised development costs 
are  not amortised  but they  are  tested  for  impairment  annually, or  more  frequently  if  events  or  changes  in  circumstances 
indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Development costs are allocated 
to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cash- generating units or 
groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. The 
units or groups of units are identified at the lowest level at which development costs are monitored for internal management 
purposes, being the operating segments. 

Expenditure  on  research  activities,  undertaken  with  the  prospect  of  obtaining  new  scientific  or  technical  knowledge  and 
understanding, is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as an expense 
when it is incurred. 

Expenditure on development activities, being the application of research findings or other knowledge to a plan or design for 
the production of new or substantially improved products or services before the start of commercial production or use, is 
capitalised  if  it  is  probable  that  the  product  or  service  is  technically  and  commercially  feasible,  will  generate  probable 
economic benefits, adequate resources are available to complete development and cost can be measured reliably. Other 
development expenditure is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as 
an expense as incurred. 

(iii) Software 

Software (a not yet ready for use intangible asset) is shown at historical cost and amortised from the point at which the 
assets are ready for use. The assets are subsequently carried at historical cost less accumulated amortisation and less 
any losses arising from impairment testing.  

(iv) Patents and trademarks 

Significant costs associated with patents and trademarks are deferred and amortised on a straight-line basis over the period 
of their expected benefit, being their finite life of 10 years.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(o) Trade and other payables 
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are 
unpaid.  The  amounts  are  unsecured  and  are  usually  paid  within  30  days  of  recognition.  Trade  and  other  payables  are 
presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at 
their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

(p) Customer deposits 
Customer deposits 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. 

(q) Borrowings 
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 borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan 
facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be 
drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable 
that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised 
over the period of the facility to which it relates. 

Borrowings are removed from the consolidated statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract 
is  discharged,  cancelled  or  expired.  The  difference  between  the  carrying  amount  of  a  financial  liability  that  has  been 
extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities 
assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. 

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 reporting period. 

(r) Provisions 
Provisions for service warranties and other obligations are recognised when the Group has present service obligation as a 
result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can 
be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. 

(s) Employee benefits 
(i) Short-term obligations 

Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary  benefits,  annual  leave  and  accumulating  sick  leave  that  are 
expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service 
are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts 
expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in 
the balance sheet. 

(ii) Share-based payments 

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees via the 'employee security ownership plan' (ESOP).  

Employee options 

The fair value of options granted under the ESOP is recognised as a share-based payment expense with a corresponding 
increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted: 

● 
● 

● 

 including any market performance conditions (e.g. the company’s share price) 
 excluding  the  impact  of  any  service  and  non-market  performance  vesting  conditions  (e.g.  profitability,  sales  growth 
targets and remaining an employee of the company over a specified time period), and 
 including the impact of any non-vesting conditions (e.g. the requirement for employees to save or holdings shares for a 
specific period of time).

Sensera Limited 
Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions 
are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to 
vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if 
any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. 

(t) Contributed equity 
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. 

(u) Loss per share 
(i) Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing: 

● 
● 

 the loss attributable to owners of the company, 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 year. 

(ii) Diluted loss per share 

Diluted loss per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic loss 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 additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion 
of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. 

(v) Rounding of amounts 
The company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Legislative Instrument 2016/191, relating to the 'rounding off' of amounts in the 
financial statements. Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off in accordance with the instrument to the 
nearest dollar. 

(w) Goods and Services Tax (GST) 
Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the  amount  of  associated  GST,  unless  the  GST  incurred  is  not 
recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of 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  taxation  authority  is  included  with  other  receivables or  payables  in  the  consolidated 
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 taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows. 

(x) Financial liabilities  
Initial recognition and measurement  
Financial  liabilities  are  classified, at  initial  recognition,  as  financial  liabilities  at  fair  value through  profit  or  loss,  loans and 
borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. 

 All  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  initially at  fair  value  and,  in  the  case  of  loans and  borrowings  and payables,  net of 
directly attributable transaction costs. The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings 
and derivative financial instruments.  

Subsequent measurement  

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified in two categories: 

• 
• 

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss  

Financial liabilities at amortised cost (loans and borrowings)

Sensera Limited 
Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 34. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss  

Financial  liabilities  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  include  financial  liabilities  held  for  trading  and  financial  liabilities 
designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.  

Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This 
category  also  includes  derivative  financial  instruments  entered  into  by  the  Group  that  are  not  designated  as  hedging 
instruments in hedge relationships as defined by AASB 9. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for 
trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.  

Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit or loss. 

 Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated at the initial date of 
recognition, and only if the criteria in AASB 9 are satisfied. The Group has not designated any financial liability as at fair 
value through profit or loss.  

Financial liabilities at amortised cost (loans and borrowings)  

After  initial  recognition,  interest-bearing  loans  and  borrowings  are  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the 
effective interest rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised 
as well as through the EIR amortisation process.  

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an 
integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss. This category 
generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings. 

Derecognition  

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an 
existing  financial  liability  is  replaced by  another  from the  same  lender  on  substantially different  terms,  or  the  terms  of  an 
existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original 
liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement 
of profit or loss.  

(y) Derivative financial instruments  
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement  

Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into 
and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and 
as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. 

(z) 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  2020. The  Group  has not  yet 
assessed the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 35. Changes in accounting policies 

(a) AASB 16 Leases 

AASB 16 Leases became effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Accordingly, the Group applied AASB 
16 for this year. Changes to the Group’s accounting policies arising from this standard is summarised below: 

(i) Overview 

The Standard has been adopted from 1 July 2019, resulting in the Group recognising right-of-use assets and related lease 
liabilities for leases previously classified as operating leases under AASB 117, subject to the practical expedients described 
below. 

The Standard has been applied using the modified retrospective approach, with the cumulative impact of adopting AASB 16 
recognised in equity as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for the current period. Comparative periods 
have not been restated as permitted under the specific transition provisions in the Standard. 

The nature of expenses related to these leases has changed as the Group now recognises an amortisation charge for the 
right-of-use asset and interest expense for the lease liability. 

Previously, the Group recognised operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and assets 
and liabilities only to the extent there was a timing difference between actual lease payments and the expense recognised. 

In applying AASB 16 the Group has elected to use the following practical expedients permitted by the Standard: 

● 
● 
● 
● 
● 
● 

● 

 accounting for leases with a remaining lease term of less than 12 months from 1 July 2019 as short-term leases 
 excluding leases for which the underlying asset is low value from the calculation of lease liabilities 
 using hindsight in determining the lease term when considering options to extend and terminate leases 
 applying a single discount rate to the portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics 
 excluding initial direct costs in the measurement of the right-of-use asset at 1 July 2019 
 relying on previous assessment on whether leases are onerous as an alternative to performing an  impairment review 
on the right-of-use asset at 1 July 2019 
 not to reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered 
into before the transition date, the Group has relied on its assessment made applying AASB 117 and IFRIC 4. 

(ii) Impact of adoption 

AASB 16 was adopted using the modified retrospective approach and as such the comparatives have not been restated. 
The impact of adoption on opening retained profits as at 1 July 2019 was as follows: 

Operating lease commitments as at 1 July 2019 (AASB 117) 
Operating lease commitments discount based on the weighted average incremental borrowing rate of 
11.75% 
Accumulated depreciation as at 1 July 2019 (AASB 16) 
Right-of-use assets (AASB 16) 

Lease liabilities - current (AASB 16) 
Lease liabilities - non-current (AASB 16) 
Lease liabilities (AASB 16)

Note 35. Changes in accounting policies (continued) 

(iii) Right-of-use assets 

A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which 
comprises  the  initial  amount  of  the  lease  liability,  adjusted  for,  as  applicable,  any  lease  payments made at  or  before  the 
commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the 
cost  of  inventories,  an estimate  of  costs  expected  to  be  incurred  for dismantling  and  removing  the underlying  asset,  and 
restoring the site or asset. 

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful 
life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the company expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of 
the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for 
any remeasurement of lease liabilities. 

The company has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with 
terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss 
as incurred. 

(iv) Lease liabilities 

A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present 
value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, 
if  that  rate  cannot  be  readily  determined,  the  company's  incremental  borrowing  rate.  Lease  payments  comprise  of  fixed 
payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected 
to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably 
certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or 
a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. 

Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured 
if  there  is  a  change  in  the  following:  future  lease  payments  arising  from  a  change  in  an  index  or  a  rate  used;  residual 
guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an 
adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset 
is fully written down. 

(v) Prior year lease accounting policy to 1 July 2019 

Leases in which a significant proportion of the risks and rewards of ownership were not transferred to the Group as lessee 
were classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor 
were charged to profit and loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. 

(b) IFIRC Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments 

IFRIC 23 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019.  

The interpretation is to be applied to the determination of taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax 
credits and tax rates, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments under IAS 12. 

The adoption of this interpretation has not materially impacted the amounts disclosed in these financial statements.

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the Members of Sensera Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Sensera Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises 
the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, 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 2020 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 (including Independence Standards) (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 

Revenue (Note 2) 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The Group has recognised Revenue of USD $11,797,799 during the 
year. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
•  Understanding the processes used by the Group to record 

revenues, receivables and contract liabilities; 

This area is a key audit matter due to the nature and assessment of 
performance obligations and the importance of the Revenue balance 
to users of the financial statements. 

•  Assessing the revenue recognition policies for appropriateness 
and compliance with AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with 
customers; 

Debt and warrants (Note 13 and 14) 
As at 30 June 2020 the carrying value of Loans was USD $5,075,951 
and warrants derivative was USD $1,223,007. 

This is a key audit matter due to the level of judgements and 
estimates required by Management in calculating the carrying values 
and resulting accounting treatment of these instruments. 

•  Performing testing on a sample of transactions to determine 

whether revenue was recognised in line with the Group’s revenue 
recognition policy and accounting standards;   

•  Analytically reviewing revenue values and associated ratios, with 
any items outside of audit expectations investigated further; 

•  Evaluating, on a sample basis, significant receivable and contract 
liability balances by obtaining the corresponding sales contracts 
and other supporting documentation and testing that appropriate 
amounts were recognised at the reporting date; and 

•  Evaluating the adequacy of related disclosures in the financial 

report. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
•  Reviewing relevant loan and warrant agreements; 
•  Agreeing year end debt balances to third party confirmations; 
•  Performing analytical review of the interest expense; 
•  Assessing covenant compliance (where applicable);  
•  Reviewing Management's paper on the accounting for warrants 

and resulting calculations (Black Scholes model), considering the 
inputs and assumptions made for reasonableness;  

•  Assessing the requirements of AASB 9 Financial Instruments; 
•  Engaging our Corporate Finance experts to consider the 

calculations, inputs and assumptions used, (where relevant); and 

•  Reviewing the disclosures made in the financial statements. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets (Note 11)  

As at 30 June 2020, the carrying value of goodwill was USD 
$4,073,789, capitalised development costs was USD $2,979,795 and 
software development costs was USD $474,967. 

AASB 136 Impairment of Assets requires Management to perform an 
impairment test of indefinite lived intangible assets, intangible assets 
not yet ready for use, and goodwill at least annually. 

This is a key audit matter due to the level of judgement and estimation
required by Management in calculating the recoverable amount.  
Management estimated the recoverable amount by using the fair 
value less cost of disposal method. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
•  Considering the application of the requirements of AASB 136 

Impairment of Assets to the Group’s impairment testing 
methodology and model; 

•  Assessing the Group’s determination of Cash Generating Units 

(CGUs); 

•  Assessing the mathematical accuracy and methodology 
appropriateness of the underlying calculations; and 

•  Assessing the adequacy of the Group's disclosures in the financial 
statements in respect of AASB 136 Impairment of Assets and the 
requirements therein. 

Going concern (Notes 34 (a)(iii)  

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in 
accordance with AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements.  
The Group’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and the 
associated extent of uncertainty is a key audit matter due to the high 
level of judgement required by the Directors and Management in 
evaluating the Group’s assessment of going concern and the events 
or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to 
continue as a going concern.  These are outlined in the going concern 
disclosures in the financial statements. 

The Directors have determined that the use of the going concern 
basis of accounting is appropriate in preparing the financial report.  
Their assessment of going concern was based on cash flow 
projections.  The preparation of these projections incorporated a 
number of assumptions and significant judgement.   

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
•  Reviewing Management’s cash-flow forecast and underlying data 
used to generate the forecast, to evaluate whether the operations 
of the business would provide sufficient cash for a period of at 
least twelve (12) months from the proposed date of signing, in 
order to satisfy the going concern assumption;   

•  Evaluating Management’s ability to forecast by comparing prior 

period forecasts with actual results; 

•  Analysing the impact of reasonably possible changes in projected 

cash flows and their timing, to the projected periodic cash 
positions;  

•  Considering the impact of the disposal of the nanotron subsidiary 
and associated “Internet of Things” (IOTS) business segment 
subsequent to year end; and 

•  Considering the adequacy of the going concern disclosures in the 
financial statements by comparing them to our understanding of 
the matter and accounting standard requirements. 

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 2020, 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.  

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance 
Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilites/ar1_2020.pdf. This description forms part of 
our auditor’s report.
