For personal use onlyChairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholders,

It gives me great pleasure to write my first Chairman’s letter to you.  Whilst I have been on the board of Skyfii since it first listed in 2014,  
I have only taken on the Chairman’s role in January of this year after the retirement of James Scott. I would like to thank James for his tireless 
efforts over the past three years as Chairman of the company. What we have today very much reflects his commitment and leadership.

As the world’s first omnidata intelligence company, Skyfii collects and analyses billions of data points each month from a range of venue 
types across five continents.  Our SaaS, cloud-based solutions help venues visualise, measure, predict, and influence customer behaviour, 
creating better experiences for their visitors and customers. 

Our listing on the ASX provides strong roots into the Australian market and reflects our heritage.   At the same time, we are a truly global 
organisation with 54 staff in 8 countries delivering solutions to a portfolio of 8,500+ venues, under contract in over 30 countries.

2019 – A year of delivery

The 2019 financial year represented another period of exceptional underlying growth for the company, with the key metrics being:

• 

Full year FY2019 total operating revenues of $9.4m, representing a 52% growth compared to FY2018

•  Delivered our second consecutive year of positive operating EBITDA i of $0.88m, compared to $0.35m in FY2018. 

Positive operating EBITDA was a goal that the company set for FY19 and our ability to deliver on our forecasts should provide comfort to 
investors that we can maintain the balance between growth and profitability.

Successfully executing on internal growth and acquisitions 

Post FY19, Skyfii formally completed the acquisition of Beonic Technologies, a leading Australian consumer insights provider specialising 
in camera and people counting technology. The transaction was highly complementary to our existing product offering and provides new 
channels for our business to engage with customers. Furthermore, acquiring Beonic demonstrates Skyfii’s commitment to diversifying its 
product and service offering to position itself as a true omnidata intelligence company.

Skyfii received an overwhelmingly positive and supportive response from Beonic’s key customers, consisting of blue-chip customers in the 
Australian retail sector including AMP, Lend Lease, QIC, ISPT and The GPT Group that extends Skyfii’s already market leading position in 
the retail property segment in Australia. 

Additional new customers including New Balance, Melbourne City Council, L’Oreal, David Jones and National Museum of Australia, provides 
Skyfii a further diversified customer base across the lucrative retail, municipality, cultural centres and education verticals.

Furthermore, the acquisition provides a significant opportunity to upsell Skyfii’s full suite of SaaS services to Beonic’s existing portfolio of 
customers and reflects our ability to identify, execute and complete value-adding acquisitions to complement our existing operations.

Our internal development activities delivered a steadily increasing level of customer engagement globally.  Our focus on growth in the 
American and European markets has seen a very sound level of new contract wins from those geographies, both in traditional verticals as 
well as new areas such as museums, stadiums and municipalities.  We will continue to invest in on the ground people and channel partners 
which we are confident will continue to open up further growth opportunities in global markets.

For personal use onlyOur people

As a technology and services company, our ability to create world leading software-based solutions and take them effectively to a global 
market is fundamental to our success.  The board is committed to maintaining the strongest team of data scientists, analysts and engineers 
to allow Skyfii to continue to be a global leader in omnidata intelligence.

Furthermore, we have developed a very strong international sales and delivery team who are tasked with growing our global contracts and 
transitioning Skyfii to be a truly international company.  With our CEO and CPO based in the USA, our commitment to our global presence 
is demonstrable, remaining strong and in sound hands.

Well positioned for FY20

In  FY19,  Skyfii  took  the  deliberate  decision  to  achieve  sound  ongoing  growth  through  acquisition  and  a  direct  investment  into  our 
distribution  channels  and  in-house  programming  technology.    We  believe  that  this  investment  positions  Skyfii  very  well  for  continued 
customer engagement and revenue growth.  We continue to set positive operating EBITDA as a fundamental target for our business, but 
we remain committed to investing in driving growth.  As we move in to FY20 I see the key areas of focus for the company as:

•  Deliver strong top line and recurring revenue growth across all regions

•  Close out large deals in our short and medium-term pipeline, particularly in the USA

•  Maintain focus on cash management and maintaining a positive operating EBITDA position 

Our growing global presence will offer new opportunities for the business in FY20. We are also growing our presence in verticals outside 
our traditional exposure to retail.   New markets will continue to allow Skyfii to deliver on its historic growth rates.

I  believe  the  company  is  well-positioned  for  a  period  of  exciting  growth  as  our  investment  in  people,  technology  and  global  strategy 
establish Skyfii in a world leading position in omnidata intelligence.

I am pleased to have the opportunity to represent you as the Chairman of Skyfii and I am confident that the Skyfii team can continue to 
deliver for you, the shareholder. 

Yours faithfully,

Andrew Johnson  

Chairman and Non-Executive Director

CEO’s Letter

Dear Shareholders,

I am very pleased to report another year of strong growth at all levels for the company. We began the financial year with a number of key 
objectives, including: further consolidation of our dominant position in the ANZ retail vertical, a continued focus on recruiting and enabling 
new channel partners globally, delivering growth in our international markets, managing cash and maintaining a positive operating EBITDA 
position and also continuing to investigate accretive acquisition opportunities to complement our strong organic growth rate.

FY19’s  results  have  shown  successful  delivery  against  all  of  these  stated  objectives.  Firstly,  our  key  financial  and  operating  highlights 
included significant growth in both topline and recurring revenues, we maintained a positive operating EBITDA position for the full year, 
substantially grew topline and organic revenues, doubled our portfolio of venues under contract, with many new contract wins in the ANZ 
retail vertical and continued revenue growth across all international markets.  Post the end of the year we also successfully concluded 
the acquisition of Beonic technologies, which will help to further accelerate our revenue growth and diversification into FY20 and beyond. 

From an operations perspective, the company outpaced its internal forecasts, growing its venue portfolio to over 8,500+ venues under 
contract, up from 4,500 in FY18. In addition, we successfully penetrated new verticals outside of retail including: Cultural centres (museums, 
art galleries and libraries), Hospitals, Retail banking branches, Sporting stadiums, Smart Cities, Smart Commercial Buildings, Universities, 
Grocery stores and Quick Service Retail (QSR) venues. Finally, we have successfully grown our operations within our international markets, 
posting a number of new contract wins across the North America, EMEA and Brazil markets.

This year’s successes would not have been possible without a supportive board and the continued commitment from the Skyfii team.  
I would like to personally thank all of the Skyfii staff for your tireless efforts and I look forward to working alongside the team as we work 
towards our goal of becoming the leading omnidata intelligence provider globally. 

As we enter FY20, I firmly believe that the company will reach a significant inflection point and I am excited to share this next stage of the 
journey with our team and shareholders.

Strong recurring revenue growth and improving operating earnings
Total operating revenue for the company in FY19 was up 52% YoY to $9.4m and our recurring revenues  grew at a similar rate, up 50% 
YoY, at $5.2m. This is a very pleasing result and is testament to the momentum the company is delivering across all operating regions.  
The company was pleased to deliver a positive operating EBITDA of $0.88m for the full year, which was a key milestone set and announced 
by the business 12 months ago. We are very pleased that this milestone has been met and should provide our investors with confidence 
as we continue to invest in our operating model.

Financial strength and flexibility
During FY19, the company continued to manage its cash position to reflect its growth aspirations, ending the year with cash at bank of 
$1.33m. In May 2019, the company announced it had secured a $2m loan facility, which was a response to the increasing need for working 
capital as a result of the acquisition of Beonic. This will also allow Skyfii to better manage operating capital to support our growth rate as we 
look to scale further within the international markets.  The company remains focused on managing its cost base, while continuing to invest 
in growth and  the drawdown facility will provide access to further growth capital as needed.

Investing in our product and distribution
The company continued to invest into its proprietary and market leading technology platform. Major milestones include the release of our 
omnidata intelligence functionality and integration with a variety of people counting solutions, the launch of our custom reporting suite 
through IO Labs and various new reporting features including student attendance reporting for the higher education vertical.

The company has maintained a strategy of scaling international operations through distribution via channel partners and we welcomed 
new global Managed Service Provider (MSPs) to our list of supported partners during FY19.

Positioning ourselves as an industry pioneer through omnidata intelligence
2019 has been a breakthrough year for us in more ways than one. 

We have now developed a global positioning strategy that will help us stand out from the crowded “WiFi analytics” and “WiFi marketing” 
spaces. As shareholders may recall, our technology platform initially relied solely on WiFi data to understand visitor behavior. However, 
we’ve long recognised that our customers would need more than a single data source to paint a complete picture of what’s happening 
in their venues. To that end, we’ve invested heavily in integrating other data sources in our platform, such as people counters. We’ve also 
enhanced these data sources by building our our data services team, who have provided our customers with much needed expertise with 
data science, research, and other services. 

However, while our technology and services offerings have advanced tremendously, our messaging had not kept pace. At the same time, 
the market continued to perceive us as a “WiFi” company, which hindered our ability to build awareness around our more sophisticated 
solutions.  To  address  this,  Skyfii  has  crafted  a  new  narrative  around  a  concept  we’re  calling  ‘omnidata  intelligence’.  This  methodology 
provides customers with the right data, intelligent technology, and experienced people to gain insights about their venues. Instead of 
having to take on expensive and risky ‘big data’ projects, our customers can benefit from this new approach to get value from their data 
reliably and quickly.

6

For personal use onlyWe have already begun incorporating messaging around omnidata intelligence in our marketing and communications strategy, and you 
can expect us to continue evangelizing for this new and exciting approach. 

New contract wins
During FY19 the business continued to deliver new contract wins. Importantly we are seeing an increasing level of customer engagement 
in new verticals such as stadium, municipalities and museums which highlight the ability of our technology to add value outside  of  our 
historic focus on retail.  We are also seeing an uplift in the contracts signed outside of Australia reflecting the truly global potential for our 
business.  
A selection of our key contract wins during 2019 are;
 •   Increased our presence in Stadium verticals through deals with the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground and Somerset County Cricket Club UK
 •   Consolidated our presence in our core retail vertical with contracts with Fortius Funds Management, expanded contract with Nando’s in 

South Africa, US Retail Group Cafaro, Tanger Outlets and Home Consortium

 •   Expanded our presence in Latin America through contracts with Habibs Restaurants, Dasa Group Medical Centers and white goods 

retailer, Frigelar 

 •   Entered into new verticals through contracts with the National Library of Australia, Dayton Arena in Ohio and the San Francisco Museum 

of Modern Art 

Our global focus 
Skyfii’s  suite  of  SaaS  products  are  truly  global  in  their  ability  to  capture  and  analyse  customer  behavior  data.    Australia  has  been  our 
traditional  region  of  focus  as  we  developed  our  technologies  and  software  with  our  large  base  of  local  customers  and  relationships.   
As our offerings have enhanced and products refined, we are in a position where we are now successfully able to leverage our offerings 
into the global marketplace.  We are further increasing our on the ground presence in the USA, Europe & Asia and working with local 
channel partners to broaden our distribution network.  Our global strategy is gaining momentum with recent contract wins in Brazil and 
the USA and a very strong and large pipeline of enterprise customer opportunities. 

Positive outlook for FY20 and beyond
As we enter FY20, with contracted recurring revenues of $6.0m (pre-Beonic acquisition) to be recognised over the new financial year,  
Skyfii is well positioned to deliver another very strong financial and operating performance.

In addition to continued expected growth at both the topline and recurring revenue lines, the company will continue to focus on maintaining 
a positive operating EBITDA result for the full year. The company expects to see a significant contribution from the North America and 
EMEA regions and is at this stage continuing to invest into its operating model to support this expected growth.

We have successfully diversified our product and services offering to now include analytics reporting from new data sources, including 
People Counting technology, 2D and 3D cameras, Point of Sale terminals, Mobile Applications, Live Weather and Social Media. The inclusion 
of new data sources provides a clear competitive advantage and increases the opportunity to sell through additional products and services 
to our current and prospective customer base. 

Skyfii is well positioned to become the preferred omnidata intelligence partner for physical venues globally.

Key areas of focus for Skyfii in FY20:
•  Conversion of key contracts within our international markets
•  Deliver strong topline and recurring revenue growth across all regions
•  Maintain focus on cash management and maintaining a positive operating EBITDA position 
• 
• 
• 

Integrate the Beonic (people counting) business and expand offering into the UK, USA and Brazil
Further increase the number of datasets represented in the IO platform
Further build out our channel partnerships with global ecosystem partners

On behalf of the Skyfii team I would like to thank the board, our talented and committed team and our shareholders for another great year 
and we look forward to delivering another successful year in FY20.

Yours faithfully,

Wayne Arthur

CEO and Executive Director

SKYFII LIMITED annual report For personal use onlyReview of Operations

Skyfii business overview  
Skyfii  is  a  global  omnidata  intelligence  company  which  is 
transforming  the  way  organisations  collect,  analyse  and 
extract value from data and we exist to help physical venues 
use data to better understand visitor behaviour and improve 
experiences.

Physical venues need access to data and insights if they are 
going  to  operate  successfully.  However,  many  businesses 
don’t have the resources or in-house capability to make use 
of  this  data.  Skyfii’s  omnidata  intelligence  approach  helps 
provide actionable insights reliably, and securely.

1. RIGHT DATA

Skyfii  IO  supports  data  collection  from  a  growing  number 
of  data  sources,  many  of  which  are  already  present  within 
physical  spaces  today.  This  consolidation  of  data  provides 
venues  the  ability  to  build  a  holistic  view  of  the  visitor 
experience and the factors that influence it. The scope, scale 
and integrity of our data allows our customers to maximize 
their client engagement and satisfaction.

The practice of omnidata intelligence means combining 
3 key elements;   
1.The right data 
2. Intelligent technology  
3. Experienced people

Go-to-market strategy

Product Development

Our  go  to  market  strategy  utilises  a  combination  of  our  own 
direct  sales  efforts,  predominantly  in  the  ANZ  region  and  revenue 
generation through key channel partnerships, which is our preferred 
sales approach in our international markets.

With a total employee base of 54, we have set up small, nimble sales 
and support teams in each of our international markets to support 
and enable sales through a global channel partner ecosystem which 
includes bluechip enterprise companies such as:

•  Optus

•  Dimension Data

The product underwent significant product research and development 
within FY19. Development has focused on the following key areas:

Data Quality and Enhanced Multi-Datasource Capabilities

The  Skyfii  Connect  module  continues  to  be  enhanced  to  support 
the  growing  categories  of  data  for  streamlined  integration  and 
provisioning,  the  goal  of  which  is  to  improve  overall  data  quality. 
The  Skyfii  IO  Insights  module  was  enhanced  to  provide  advanced 
reporting  capabilities  regarding  the  correlation  and  influence  of 
related data types. 

•  Hewlett Packard Enterprises (HPe)

Intelligent Campaign Tools

•  Cisco

•  AT&T

Channel  partners  are  typically  paid  a  percentage  of  revenue  (10%-
30%) and fall into the following categories: 

Technology partners: Technology partners enable delivery of Skyfii’s 
solutions or increase our capabilities using a ‘better together’ go-to-
market  approach.  Examples  of  these  partnerships  include  Hewlett 
Packard & Cisco Meraki.

Managed  service  providers  (MSPs):  MSPs  purchase  direct  from 
Skyfii, retain title and provide a fully managed solution to customers 
that may also be bundled with a managed WiFi solution (using a third 
party WiFi provider). MSPs can provide critical go-to-market capabilities 
such as technical assistance centre (TAC) support, managed network 
operations centres (NOC), proof of concept support and enterprise 
customer  deployment  capabilities.  Examples  of  these  partnerships 
include Optus & Dimension Data.

Value  added  resellers  (VARs):  VARs  typically  provide  a  route  to 
market for large SMB opportunities. They provide varying degrees of 
professional services (e.g. design, installation, integration) but many 
have  limited  capabilities  to  provide  NOC  and  TAC  support  services. 
Examples of these partnerships includes Telcomms & Jade Solutions.

The  Skyfii  IO  Engage  module  was  enhanced  to  deliver  targeted 
campaigns based on machine learning and predictive models.

Vendor Support

Skyfii  continued  its  support  of  data  category  and  vendor  agnostic 
sources with the introduction of new Wi-Fi, 2D/3D Camera, CRM and 
SMS providers.

Data Privacy

Skyfii treats data production, privacy and security very seriously. How 
data  is  collected,  stored  and  used  is  of  the  utmost  importance  to 
our  business,  including  supporting  our  customers’  compliance  with 
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

As part of this continued commitment to data privacy, Skyfii ensured 
its compliance with GDPR, which came into effect on 25 May 2018.

Skyfii also takes a number of steps to ensure our data remains secure 
at every stage. This includes storing data securely in ISO 27001, SOC 
III,  PCI  DSS  certified  data  centres.  Data  is  kept  within  jurisdictional 
boundaries.  Data  is  transmitted  and  stored  using  multiple  levels  of 
encryption that enforce the industry’s most secure algorithms, such 
as 256 bit AES.

For personal use onlyKey Verticals and New Customer Contracts

The  company  continued  to  successfully  diversify  its  addressable 
market during FY19 -  accelerating growth in new target verticals whilst 
extending its penetration in established verticals. This diversification 
resulted  in  an  extensive  number  of  new  contract  wins,  in  new  and 
exciting  verticals,  announced  throughout  the  financial  year.  The 
number of venues under contract include Healthcare venues, Cultural 
centres  (museums),  Hospitals,  Retail  banking  branches,  Sporting 
stadiums, Smart Cities, Smart Buildings, Universities, Grocery stores, 
Quick Service Retail (QSR), and Department store retailers.

across by our our customers base.

Total registered user base increased by 10.7% QoQ  
from 27 million to 29.9 million 

Q4 FY19 customer visits increased by 12.89% QoQ from  
253 million to 286 million.

Overview of financial performance
In  FY19,  the  company  delivered  total  operating  revenues  of 
$9.4m, representing a 52% growth when compared with FY18 and 
recurring  revenues  of  $5.2m,  representing  a  50%  growth  when 
compared  with  FY18.  This  places  the  Company  in  a  very  strong 
financial position for FY20. 

The growth in revenue is a result of the company’s focus on delivering

internationally across a growing number of industry verticals.

The company delivered a positive operating EBITDA of $0.88m for 
the  full  year.  Maintaining  a  positive  operating  EBITDA  for  the  full 
year FY19 was a key milestone set and announced by the business  
12  months  ago.  We  are  very  pleased  that  this  milestone  has 
been  met  and  should  provide  our  investors  with  confidence  as 
we continue to invest in our operating model in our international 
operations.

The  increase  in  net  loss  is  a  result  of  non-cash  accounting 
adjustments made up of share based payments valued using the 
black  scholes  method,  the  amortisation  of  the  Causely  aquisition 
(completed February 2018) and Beonic acquisition costs (completed 
July 2019) when compared with the prior year.

SKYFII LIMITED annual report For personal use onlyReview of Operations continued

Revenue Channel Categories
The categorisations of revenue channels, defined as recurring, 
non-recurring and services revenues. 

Recurring Revenues

The  company’s  core  revenue  base  is  derived  from  subscriptions 
to  its  Software  as  a  Service  (SaaS)  IO  platform,  comprised  of  IO 
Connect (data collection) , IO Insight (data analytics) and IO Engage 
(marketing  tools)  modules.  Modules  can  be  purchased  packaged, 
as a combination or in isolation, and are typically contracted on 1,3 
or 5 year terms. 

Non-recurring Revenues

Non-recurring  revenues  are  generated  from  the  deployment  of 
hardware  and  infrastructure,  implementations  and  upfront  setup 
fees, which underpin recurring revenues.

Services Revenues

Providing additional paid services to clients, services revenues are 
generated  from  the  payment  of  projects  undertaken  by  both  the 
Data Consultancy and Marketing Services team, including revenues 
generated from customers of the Causely (US) business. Revenues 
generated  from  services  are  received  as  either  recurring  or  fixed 
fee projects.

14

For personal use onlyFurthermore,  the  acquisition  provides  a  significant  opportunity  to 
upsell Skyfii’s full suite of SaaS services to Beonic’s existing portfolio of 
customers  and  reflects  our  ability  to  identify,  execute  and  complete 
value adding acquisitions to complement our existing operations.

Outlook for FY20 and beyond
As  we  enter  FY20,  with  contracted  recurring  revenues  of  $6.0m 
(pre-Beonic  acquisition)  to  be  recognised  over  the  new  financial 
year, Skyfii is well positioned to deliver another very strong financial 
and operating performance. 

In addition to continued growth at both the topline and recurring 
revenue lines, the company will continue to focus on maintaining 
a  positive  operating  EBITDA  result  for  the  full  year.  The  company 
expects  to  see  a  significant  contribution  from  the  North  America 
and EMEA regions and is at this stage continuing to invest into its 
operating model to support this growth.

The  company  has  successfully  diversified  its  product  and  service 
offering to now include analytics reporting from new data sources, 
including People Counting technology, 2D and 3D cameras, Point of 
Sale terminals, Mobile Applications, Live Weather and Social Media. 
The  inclusion  of  new  data  sources  provides  a  clear  competitive 
advantage and increases the opportunity to sell through additional 
products  and  services  to  our  current  and  prospective  customer 
base.  Skyfii  is  well  positioned  to  become  the  preferred  omnidata 
intelligence partner for physical venues globally.

Key areas of focus for Skyfii in FY20:

•  Conversion of key contracts within our International markets

•   Deliver  strong  topline  and  recurring  revenue  growth  across  all 

regions

•   Maintain focus on cash management and maintaining a positive 

operating EBITDA position 

•   Integrate  the  Beonic  (people  counting)  business  and  expand 

offering into the UK, USA and Brazil

•  Increase the number of datasets represented in the IO platform

•  Further build out our partnership with global ecosystem partners

Cash position
As  at  30  June  2019,  the  company  maintained  a  cash  position  of 
$1.33m, down from $1.46m at the end of the previous year (ending 
30  June  2018),  as  a  result  of  over  $175k  in  costs  related  to  the 
acquisition  of  Beonic  (completed  9  July  2019),  upfront  costs  of 
delivering  multiple  infrastructure  deployments  in  the  Australian 
market and timing of customer payments to be received in FY20. 

On 14 May 2019, the company announced it obtained unsecured 
loan facilities of $2 million in aggregate from sophisticated investors, 
Thorney  Technologies  Ltd  (ASX:TEK),  Jagafii  Pty  Ltd  a  company 
associated with Skyfii director, Jon Adgemis and BMR Securities Pty 
Ltd. The initial term of the loan facility is for 2 years and matures 
on 31 May 2021, with a conditional option to extend for a further 
12 months.

The  company  expects  to  maintain  its  cash  balance  in  the  coming 
year,  while  at  the  same  time  continuing  to  invest  in  growing 
revenues.

Post Financial Year End  
Acquisition and Global Development 

As we have stated previously, we are building an omnidata intelligence 
practice for our customers and our ability to secure value-added and 
accretive acquisitions is a key part of this strategy. We were extremely 
pleased to complete the acquisition of Beonic Technologies, a leading 
Australian  customer  insights  provider  specialising  in  camera  and 
people counting technology. The transaction is highly complementary 
to our existing product offering and allows Skyfii to add more revenue 
opportunities to new and existing customers. 

People  counters  provide  physical  venues  with  an  effective  way  to 
capture high-fidelity, granular analytics on visitor movement throughout 
their venues. Additionally, the ability to correlate their data with other 
sources in the Skyfii ‘IO Platform’ – such as WiFi, POS, and weather – can 
help venues improve the depth of intelligence they can gather. While 
the  ‘IO  Platform’  already  supports  the  ingestion  and  visualisation  of 
people counter data, the acquisition of Beonic allows us to augment 
those capabilities, and integrate with an even wider range of devices 
and customer opportunities.

Skyfii  received  an  overwhelmingly  positive  and  supportive  response 
from Beonic’s top customers, consisting of blue chip customers in the 
Australian retail sector including AMP, Lend Lease, QIC, ISPT and The 
GPT Group that extends Skyfii’s already market leading position in the 
retail property segment in Australia.

Additional  new  customers  including  New  Balance,  Melbourne  City 
Council,  L’Oreal,  David  Jones  and  National  Museum  of  Australia, 
provides Skyfii a further diversified customer base across the lucrative 
retail, municipality, cultural centres and education verticals.

We estimate that Beonic will deliver a pro-forma 30% increase in Skyfii’s 
annualised Recurring Revenue base and the  acquisition is anticipated 
to be operating EBITDA accretive in the first full year post completion.

Other  than  the  above  matter  there  are  no  other  matters  or

• 
• 
• 

the Group’s operations in the future financial years, or 
the results of those operations in future financial years, or 
the Group’s state of affairs in the future financial affairs.

Future developments
Disclosure  of  information  regarding  likely  developments  in  the 
operations  of  the  consolidated  entity  in  future  financial  years 
and  the  expected  results  of  those  operations  is  likely  to  result 
in  unreasonable  prejudice  to  the  Company.  Accordingly,  this 
information has not been disclosed in this report.

Environmental regulations
The Group’s operations are not involved in any activities that have 
a  marked  influence  on  the  environment.  As  such,  the  Directors 
are  not  aware  of  any  material  issues  affecting  the  Group  or  its 
compliance  with  the  relevant  environment  agencies  or  regulatory 
authorities.

Principal activities

The principal activity of the Group during the financial year was the 
provision of data analytics services. 

Review of operations
The consolidated entity’s loss attributable to equity holders of the 
Company, after providing for income tax, amounted to $4,035,527 
(2018 loss: $2,009,719). Refer to the commentary in the Review of 
Operations.

Dividends paid or recommended
In  respect  of  the  financial  year  ended  30  June  2019,  there  have 
been no dividends paid or provided for (2018: nil).

Significant changes in state of affairs
There are no significant changes in the state of affairs of the parent 
entity occurred during the financial year:

Subsequent events

Beonic  business  from  Beonic  Technologies  (Beonic).  Beonic  is  a 
leading Australian customer insights provider specialising in camera 
and people counting technology.

~1.05x annual Recurring Revenue contract value. The consideration 
comprises of $0.1 cash and $0.4m in Skyfii scrip upon completion,

Auditor’s Independence Declaration

The  auditor’s  independence  declaration  is  included  on  page  26 
of this report and forms part of the Directors’ Report for the year 
ended 30 June 2019.

Proceedings on behalf of Company

No person has applied for leave of Court to bring proceedings on 
behalf of the Group or intervene in any proceedings to which the 
Group is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of 
the Group for all or any part of those proceedings. The Group was 
not a party to any such proceedings during the year.

Indemnification of officers and auditors

During  the  financial  year,  the  Company  paid  premiums  based  on 
normal  commercial  terms  and  conditions  to  insure  all  directors, 
officers  and  employees  of  the  Group  against  claims  brought 
against  the  individual  while  performing  services  for  the  Group. 
The  premium  paid  has  not  been  disclosed  as  it  is  subject  to  the 
confidentiality provisions of the insurance policy. Except as noted 
below, the Company has not otherwise, during or since the financial 
year, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified or agreed 
to indemnify an officer or auditor of the Company or of any related 
body  corporate  against  a  liability  incurred  as  such  an  officer  or 
auditor.

The  Company  has  previously  entered  into  a  Deed  of  Indemnity, 
Insurance  and  Access  with  each  of  its  current  Directors.  The 
purpose of the Deed is to:

• 

• 

• 

 confirm  the  indemnity  provided  by  the  Company  in  favour  of 
Directors under the Company’s Constitution;

 include an obligation upon the Company to maintain adequate 
Directors and Officers liability insurance; and

 confirm  the  right  of  access  to  certain  documents  under  the 
Corporations Act.

Non-audit services

Amounts  paid  or  payable  to  the  auditor  for  non-audit  services 
provided during the year by the auditor amounted to $6,000 (FY18: 
$7,663).

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

The  Directors  are  of  the  opinion  that  the  services  as  disclosed 
in  Note  19  to  the  financial  statements  do  not  compromise  the 
external  auditor’s  independence,  based  on  advice  received  from 
the Audit and Risk Committee, 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  Code  of  Conduct  APES 
110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the 
Accounting  Professional  &  Ethical  Standards  Board,  including 
reviewing  or  auditing  the  auditors  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.

1. Remuneration policy
The  performance  of  the  Group  depends  upon  the  quality  of  its 
directors and executives. The Group recognises the need to attract, 
motivate and retain highly skilled directors and executives.

The Board of Directors, through its Nomination and Remuneration 
Committee,  accepts  responsibility  for  determining  and  reviewing 
remuneration  arrangements  for  the  Directors  and  Executives. 
The  Nomination  and  Remuneration  Committee  assesses  the 
appropriateness  of  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration 
of  Directors  and  Executives  on  a  periodic  basis  by  reference  to 
relevant employment market conditions, giving due consideration 
to the overall profitability and financial resources of the Group, with 
the  objective  of  ensuring  maximum  stakeholder  benefit  from  the 
retention of a high quality Board and executive team.

Non-Executive Director remuneration
Fees and payments to Non-Executive Directors reflect the demands 
which  are  made  of  the  Directors  in  fulfilling  their  responsibilities. 
Non-Executive  Director  fees  are  reviewed  annually  by  the  Board. 
The constitution of the Company provides that the Non-Executive 
Directors  of  the  Company  are  entitled  to  such  remuneration,  as 
determined  by  the  Board,  which  must  not  exceed  in  aggregate 
the  maximum  amount  determined  by  the  Company  in  a  general 
meeting. The most recent determination was at a general meeting 
held  on  3  December  2012  where  the  shareholders  approved  a 
maximum  aggregate  remuneration  of  $500,000.  Annual  Non-
Executive  Directors’  fees  currently  agreed  to  be  paid  by  the 
Company are $300,000 inclusive of superannuation.

Executive and Executive Director remuneration
Fixed  remuneration  consists  of  base  remuneration  (which  is 
calculated  on  a  total  cost  basis  and  includes  any  fringe  benefits 
tax  charges  related  to  employee  benefits),  as  well  as  employer 
contributions to superannuation funds.

Executive and Executive Director remuneration levels are reviewed 
annually by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee through 
a  process  that  considers  the  overall  performance  of  the  Group. 
Executive  Directors  are  not  paid  any  director  fees  in  addition  to 
their fixed remuneration as Executives.

Performance based remuneration
Performance based remuneration, which may take the form of cash 
or equity based bonuses, is at the discretion of the Nomination and 
Remuneration Committee.

For personal use onlyCorporate Governance Statement

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the Corporate 
Governance of the Company and its controlled entities. The Board 
guides  and  monitors  the  business  and  affairs  of  the  group  on 
behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom 
they  are  accountable.  The  governance  practices  adopted  by  the 
Company are structured with reference to the 4th Edition of the ASX 
Corporate Governance Council’s Principles and Recommendations 
(ASX CGPR).

The  Board  is  committed  to  improving  its  corporate  governance 
practices  and  embracing  the  principles  published  by  the  ASX 
Corporate Governance Council, however the Board is of a view that 
the adoption of the practices and principles should be considered 
in  line  with  the  size,  stage  and  nature  of  the  business  and  the 
industry in which it operates.

The Board aims to achieve all of the Principles and Recommendations 
in stages as the Company grows and its circumstances change over 
time. 

The  information  provided  below  summarises  how  the  Company 
presently complies with the ASX CGPR, and how it intends to comply 
with  each  of  the  current  Principles  and  Recommendations  going 
forward. This statement is current as 30 June 2019 and has been 
approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management  
and oversight

The Company has adopted a Board Charter clearly setting out the 
respective roles and responsibilities of the Board and management. 
The  Board  Charter 
is  available  on  the  Company’s  website,  
www.skyfii.io.

The key responsibilities of the Board include:

(a)   setting  the  long-term  strategy  and  annual  business  plan 

including objectives and milestones to be achieved;

(b)   monitoring  the  performance  of  the  Company  against  the 
financial objectives and operational goals set by the Board and 
reviewing the implementation of Board approved strategies;

(c)   assessing  the  appropriateness  of  the  skill  sets  and  the  levels 
of experience of the members of the Board, individually and as 
a whole and selecting new members to join the Board when a 
vacancy exists;

(d)   appointing, removing and determining the terms of engagement 
of the Directors, Chief Executive Officer and Company Secretary;

(e)   overseeing  the  delegation  of  authority  for  the  day  to  day 

management of the Company;

(f)   ensuring that the risk management systems, financial reporting 
and  information  systems,  personnel,  policies  and  procedures 
are  all  operating  efficiently  and  effectively  by  establishing  a 
framework of internal controls and compliance;

(g)   approving the capital structure and major funding requirements 

of the Company;

(h)   approving the Company’s half year and full year reports to the 

shareholders, ASX and ASIC; and

(i)   ensuring that recruitment, retention, termination, remuneration, 
performance  review  and  succession  planning  policies  and 
procedures are in place and complied with.

The  Company  has  established  a  Nomination  and  Remuneration 
Committee  to  identify  and  make  recommendations  to  the  Board 
for  the  appointment  of  new  Board  candidates,  having  regard  to 
their  skills,  experience  and  expertise.  The  Committee  is  currently 
comprised of three independent Directors, Ms O’Malley, Mr Brown 
and Mr Adgemis. The Board requires this Committee to undertake 
appropriate checks on potential Board candidates. The number of 
times the Nomination and Remuneration Committee met, and the 
attendance  at  those  meetings,  is  set  out  in  the  Directors’  Report. 
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter is available 
on the Company’s website, www.skyfii.io. 

All  Directors  and  senior  executives  have  entered  into  written 
appointment agreements with the Company, setting out the terms 
and conditions of their appointment.

Under the Board Charter, each Director’s performance is assessed 
when standing for re-election. Before each Annual General Meeting, 
the  Chairperson  of  the  Board  assesses  the  performance  of  any 
Director standing for re-election and the Board will determine their 
recommendation to shareholders on the re-election of the Director 
(in the absence of the Director involved). The Board (excluding the 
Chairperson), will conduct the review of the Chairperson.

Under  the  Board  Charter,  senior  executives’  performance  will  be 
considered by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee on at 
least an annual basis. The Chairperson is responsible for ensuring 
these meetings take place.

A formal Board performance evaluation was not undertaken during 
the 2019 financial year. The Board will consider conducting a formal 
performance evaluation during the 2020 financial year.

The  Company  Secretary  is  accountable  directly  to  the  Board, 
through  the  Chairperson,  on  all  matters  to  do  with  the  proper 
functioning of the Board. The Board Charter sets out the Company 
Secretary’s responsibilities, which include:

(a)   committee papers;

(b)   ensuring  the  business  at  Board  and  committee  meetings  is 

accurately captured in the minutes;

(c)   monitoring and ensuring the Board and committee policy and 

procedures are followed; and

(d)  advising the Board and its committees on governance matters.

The  Board  has  established  a  Diversity  Policy,  which  recognises 
diversity  to  encompass  ethnicity,  gender,  sexual  orientation,  age, 
physical abilities, family status, religious beliefs or other ideologies, 
and  is  committed  to  creating  and  maintaining  an  inclusive 
and  collaborative  workforce.  The  Company  understands  that 
encouraging diversity is not just a socially responsible necessity, but 
that it is essential to the Company’s continued growth and vital to 
a successful future.

27

SKYFII LIMITED annual report For personal use onlyCorporate Governance Statement continued

Given the size and nature of the Company, the Board determined 
not  to  establish  measurable  objectives  for  achieving  diversity  for 
the  2019  financial  year.  Establishing  measurable  objectives  for 
achieving diversity will be reconsidered on an annual basis.

As  at  30  June  2019,  the  proportion  of  women  employed  by  the 
Group was as follows:

•  Board of Directors: 20%

•  Senior Executive positions: 20%

•  Total Group workforce: 15%

The  Diversity  Policy  is  available  on  the  Company’s  website,  
www.skyfii.io. 

Principle 2 – Structure the board to add value

The  Nomination  and  Remuneration  Committee  has  the  authority 
and power to exercise the roles and responsibilities granted to it 
under the Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter. 

The  Committee  is  comprised  of  three  independent  Directors, 
Ms  O’Malley,  Mr  Brown  and  Mr  Adgemis.  Ms  O’Malley  acts  as 
chairperson.  The  Board  regularly  assesses  the  independence 
of  each  Director  in  light  of  the  interests  disclosed  by  them.  That 
assessment is made at each Board meeting in relation to matters 
under consideration at the meeting, at least annually at, or around 
the  time  that  the  Board  considers  candidates  for  election  to  the 
Board,  and  each  independent  Director  is  required  to  provide  the 
Board  with  all  relevant  information  for  this  purpose.  If  the  Board 
determines that a Director’s independent status has changed, that 
determination will be disclosed to the market in a timely fashion.

A majority of the Board (comprising the Chairperson of the Board, 
Mr Johnson, Mr Brown, Ms O’Malley and Mr Adgemis) are considered 
to be independent Directors. Wayne Arthur, Managing Director and 
CEO,  and  a  major  founding  shareholder  of  the  Company,  is  not 
considered to be an independent Director. 

Under the Board Charter, the Directors are expected to participate 
in any induction or orientation programs on appointment, and any 
continuing education or training arranged for them. The Company 
Secretary  assists  in  organising  and  facilitating  the  induction  and 
professional development of Directors.

Principle 3 - Instil a culture of acting lawfully, ethically  
and responsibly

The  Board  has  adopted  a  Code  of  Conduct  which  sets  out  the 
values, commitments, ethical standards of conduct expected of the 
Company’s business and people, taking into account the Company’s 
legal and other obligations to its stakeholders. This Code of Conduct 
is the foundation and basis for which the Company culture is built 
upon.  Furthermore,  the  Code  of  Conduct  applies  to  all  Directors, 
as  well  as  all  officers,  employees,  contractors,  consultants,  other 
persons that act on behalf of the Company. The Code of Conduct is 
available on the Company’s website, www.skyfii.io.

Principle 4 – Safeguard integrity in corporate reporting

The  Board  has  established  an  Audit  and  Risk  Committee.  This 
Committee  is  responsible  for,  amongst  other  things,  appointing 
the Company’s external auditors and overseeing the integrity of the 
Company’s  financial  reporting  systems  and  financial  statements. 
The Company has adopted an Audit and Risk Committee Charter 
which is available on the Company’s website, www.skyfii.io. 

The number of times the Audit and Risk Committee met, and the 
attendance at those meetings, is set out in the Directors’ Report.

The  Committee  is  comprised  of  three  independent  Directors, 
Directors,  Mr  Johnson,  Ms  O’Malley  and  Mr  Adgemis.  Mr  Johnson 
acts as Chairperson. 

implemented  a  process  to  receive  written 
The  Board  has 
assurances from its Chief Operations Officer and Finance Director 
that  the  declarations  that  will  be  provided  under  section  295A  of 
the  Corporations  Act  2001  (Cth)  are  founded  on  a  system  of  risk 
management and internal control and that the system is operating 
in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks. The 
Board  seeks  these  assurances  prior  to  approving  the  annual 
financial statements for all half year and full year results that follow.

Representatives 
from  the  Company’s  external  auditor,  Hall 
Chadwick,  are  present  at  the  Annual  General  Meeting  to  answer 
questions  that  shareholders  might  have  about  the  scope  and 
conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the auditor’s 
report,  the  accounting  policies  adopted  by  the  Company  and  the 
independence of the auditor.

The Company has adopted a formal Disclosure and Communication 
Policy,  where  there  is  an  express  requirement  that  the  external 
auditor  will  attend  the  Annual  General  Meeting  and  be  available 
to  answer  questions  about  the  conduct  of  the  audit  and  the 
preparation and content of the auditor’s report.

Principle 5 – Make timely and balanced disclosure

The  Company  ensures  that  it  complies  with  the  requirements  of 
ASX listing rules and the Corporations Act in providing information 
to  shareholders.  Consistent  with  the  Board’s  commitment  to 
improving its disclosure policy, the Board has adopted a Disclosure 
and  Communication  Policy,  which  sets  out  the  Company’s 
commitment to the objective of promoting investor confidence and 
the rights of shareholders by:

(a)   complying with the continuous disclosure obligations imposed 

by law;

(b)   ensuring  that  company  announcements  are  presented  in  a 

factual, clear and balanced way;

(c)   ensuring that all shareholders have equal and timely access to 

material information concerning the Company; and

(d)   communicating effectively with shareholders and making it easy 

for shareholders to participate in general meetings.

The  Disclosure  and  Communication  Policy  is  available  on  the

Principle 8 – Remunerate fairly and responsibly

The  Company  recognises  the  rights  of  its  shareholders  and 
other  interested  stakeholders  to  have  easy  access  to  balanced, 
understandable and timely information concerning the operations 
of  the  Company.  Information  concerning  the  Company  and  its 
governance  practices  are  made  available  on  its  website  and 
addressed in detail in each years’ Annual Report.

The  Board  has  adopted  a  Disclosure  and  Communication  Policy 
which supports its commitment to effective communication with its 
shareholders.  In  addition,  the  Company  intends  to  communicate 
with its shareholders:

(a)  by making timely market announcements;

(b)  by posting relevant information on to its website;

(c)   by inviting shareholders to make direct inquiries to the Company; 

and

(d)  through the use of general meetings.

The Board encourages participation of shareholders at the Annual 
General  Meeting  or  any  other  shareholder  meetings  to  ensure  a 
high  level  of  accountability  and  identification  with  the  Company’s 
strategy and goals. 

The Company’s shareholders may elect to receive information from 
the Company and its registry electronically. Otherwise, the Company 
and  its  registry  will  communicate  by  post  with  shareholders  who 
have not elected to receive information electronically.

Principle 7 – Recognise and manage risk

The Board has established an Audit and Risk Committee to ensure 
the  Company  has  an  effective  risk  management  system  in  place 
and to manage key risk areas.

The  Company’s  Audit  and  Risk  Committee  is  comprised  of  three 
independent Directors, Mr Johnson, Ms O’Malley and Mr Adgemis. 
Mr Johnson acts as Chairperson.

The Company has adopted an Audit and Risk Committee Charter 
which is available on the Company’s website, www.skyfii.io.

Under  the  Board  Charter,  the  Board  ensures  that  the  Company 
has  in  place  an  appropriate  risk  management  framework.  A  risk 
management framework was developed during the 2015 financial 
year  by  the  Audit  and  Risk  Committee,  and  approved  by  the 
Board. The Board will review, at least annually, the Company’s risk 
management framework in order to satisfy itself that it continues to 
be sound. A risk review was undertaken as part of the Company’s 
interim and end the financial year reporting periods.

The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for ensuring that the 
Company  has  appropriate  internal  audit  systems  and  controls  in 
place, and for overseeing the effectiveness of these internal controls. 
The Committee is also responsible for conducting investigations of 
breaches or potential breaches of these internal controls.

The  Company’s  Nomination  and  Remuneration  Committee  is 
responsible for developing, reviewing and making recommendations 
on:

(a)   the remuneration framework for Directors, including the process 
by which any pool of Directors fees approved by security holders 
is allocated to Directors;

(b)  the remuneration packages to be awarded to senior executives;

(c)   equity  based  remuneration  plans  for  senior  executives  and 

other employees; and

(d   superannuation  arrangements  for  Directors,  senior  executives 

and other employees.

The  Company’s  remuneration  policy  is  disclosed  in  the  Directors’ 
Report. The policy has been set out to ensure that the performance 
of  Directors,  key  executives  and  staff  reflect  each  person’s 
accountabilities,  duties  and  their  level  of  performance,  and  to 
ensure  that  remuneration  is  competitive  in  attracting,  motivating 
and  retaining  staff  of  the  highest  quality.  A  program  of  regular 
performance appraisals and objective setting for key executives and 
staff is in place. These annual reviews take into account individual 
and company performance, market movements and expert advice, 
if required.

The  Constitution  permits  Directors,  senior  executives  and  other 
officers  of  the  Company  to  trade  in  Company  shares  as  long  as 
they  comply  with  the  Company’s  Share  Trading  Policy.  The  Share 
Trading Policy is a code that is designed to minimise the potential 
for  intentional  and  unintentional  insider  trading  violations.  The 
Company’s  Share  Trading  Policy  is  available  on  the  Company’s 
website, www.skyfii.io. 

Directors must notify the Chairman of the Board, before they buy 
or sell shares in the Company. The details of the share trading must 
be given to the Company Secretary who must lodge such details of 
such changes with the ASX.

Senior  executives  must  give  prior  notice  to  the  Chief  Executive 
Officer,  while  other  officers  must  notify  the  Company  Secretary, 
before  trading  in  the  Company  shares  and  details  of  all  such 
transactions  must  be  given,  in  writing,  to  the  Company  Secretary 
within 5 business days.

Any  changes  in  substantial  shareholding  of  the  Directors,  senior 
executives  or  other  officers  must  be  reported  to  the  ASX  within  
2 business days of such trading. The policy also recommends that 
trading in the Company shares only occur in certain trading windows.

For the year ended 30 June 2019

1.  Reporting entity

Skyfii Limited (the Company) is a company domiciled in Australia. The 
address  of  the  Company’s  registered  office  and  principal  place  of 
business is Level 2, 100 William Street, Wooloomooloo NSW 2011.  
The  consolidated  financial  statements  of  the  Company  as  at  and 
for  the  year  ended  30  June  2019  comprise  the  Company  and  its 
subsidiaries  (together  referred  to  as  the  Group  and  individually  as 
Group entities). The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting 
purposes  under  Australian  Accounting  Standards.  The  separate 
financial  statements  of  the  parent  entity,  Skyfii  Limited,  have  not 
been  presented  within  this  financial  report  as  permitted  by  the 
Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements were authorised for 
issue on 30 August 2019 by the Directors of the Company. 

2.  Basis of preparation

(a) Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in 
accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting 
Standards  and 
Interpretations  of  the  Australian  Accounting 
Standards  Board  and  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards 
as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Material 
accounting  policies  adopted  in  the  preparation  of  these  financial 
statements  are  presented  below  and  have  been  consistently 
applied unless stated otherwise.

(b) Historical cost convention

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the 
historical  cost  basis  unless  otherwise  stated  in  the  notes.  Except 
for the cash flow information, the financial statements have been 
prepared  on  an  accrual  basis,  modified,  where  applicable,  by  the 
measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial 
assets and financial liabilities.

(c)  Functional and presentation currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian 
dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.

(d) Critical accounting estimates

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

(e) Going concern

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

The  Group  continues  to  be  in  the  research,  development  and 
commercialisation  stage  of  its  data  analytics  technology  and 
services. During the year ended 30 June 2019 the Group incurred 

a  loss  after  tax  of  $4,035,527.  At  30  June  2019,  the  Group  had  a 
surplus  in  net  current  assets  of  $895,091  and  a  surplus  in  net 
assets of $6,788,199. 

On 14 May 2019, the Company announced it obtained unsecured 
loan facilities of $2 million in aggregate from sophisticated investors, 
including  Thorney  Technologies  LTD  (ASX:TEK),  Jagafii  Pty  Ltd  a 
company  associated  with  Skyfii  director,  Jon  Adgemis  and  BMR 
Securities Pty Ltd. The initial term of the loan facility is for 2 years 
and matures on 31 May 2021, with a conditional option to extend 
for  a  further  12  months.  Interest  on  the  loan  facility  is  payable 
quarterly,  with  a  total  annual  interest  rate  of  8%  on  funds  drawn 
plus an annual line fee of 2%. The loan facility provides for greater 
funding  capacity  to  invest  for  organic  growth  across  international 
markers and to support the integration of the recently announced 
acquisition  of  Beonic  Technologies,  a  complementary  customer 
insights business.

Management  have  prepared  cash  flow  projections  that  support 
the  Group’s  ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern.  This  forecast 
acknowledges  that  the  Group  will  not  require  to  raise  additional 
capital funding for its daily operations.

The  Directors  of  the  Company  consider  that  the  cash  flow 
projections  and  assumptions  will  be  achieved,  and  in  the  longer 
term, significant revenues will continue to be generated from the 
commercialisation  of  intellectual  property,  and  accordingly,  the 
Group will be able to continue as a going concern.

In  the  event  that  the  Group  cannot  continue  as  a  going  concern, 
it  may  not  be  able  to  realise  its  assets  and  settle  its  liabilities  in 
the normal course of operations and at the amounts stated in the 
financial statement.

3.  Significant accounting policies

(a) Principles of consolidation

The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  all  of  the  assets, 
liabilities and results of Skyfii Limited and all subsidiaries. Subsidiaries 
are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls 
an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from 
its  involvement  with  the  entity  and  has  the  ability  to  affect  those 
returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. A list of 
the subsidiaries is provided in Note 25.

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

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, 
to  the  Group  are  presented  as  “non-controlling  interests”.  The 
Group  initially  recognises  non-controlling  interests  that  are  present 
ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate 
share of the subsidiary’s net assets on liquidation at either fair value or 

35

SKYFII LIMITED annual report For personal use onlyNotes to the financial statements continued 
For the year ended 30 June 2019

at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s 
net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests 
are  attributed  their  share  of  profit  or  loss  and  each  component  of 
other  comprehensive  income.  Non-controlling  interests  are  shown 
separately  within  the  equity  section  of  the  statement  of  financial 
position and statement of comprehensive income.

The  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  using 
reverse acquisition accounting. In reverse acquisition accounting, the 
cost of the business combination is deemed to have been incurred by 
the legal subsidiary Skyfii Group Pty Ltd (the acquirer for accounting 
purposes) in the form of equity instruments issued to the owners of 
the legal parent, Skyfii Limited (the acquiree for accounting purposes).

(b) Business combinations

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

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

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

All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination 
are expensed to the statement of profit or loss and comprehensive 
income.

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

(c)  Income tax

The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable 
on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable 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’s subsidiaries 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  tax  is  recognised  in  respect  of  temporary  differences 
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial 

36

reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. 
Deferred tax is not recognised for:

• 

• 

 temporary  differences  on  the  initial  recognition  of  assets  or 
liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and 
that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss;

 temporary  differences  related  to  investments  in  subsidiaries, 
associates  and  jointly  controlled  entities  to  the  extent  that 
the  Group  is  able  to  control  the  timing  of  the  reversal  of  the 
temporary  differences  and  it  is  probable  that  they  will  not 
reverse in the foreseeable future; and

• 

 taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition 
of goodwill.

The  measurement  of  deferred  tax  reflects  the  tax  consequences 
that  would  follow  the  manner  in  which  the  Group  expects,  at 
the  end  of  the  reporting  period,  to  recover  or  settle  the  carrying 
amount of its assets and liabilities. 

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be 
applied to temporary differences when they reverse, using tax rates 
enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  if  there  is  a  legally 
enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they 
relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable 
entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current 
tax  liabilities  and  assets  on  a  net  basis  or  their  tax  liabilities  and 
assets will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits 
and  deductible  temporary  differences,  to  the  extent  that  it  is 
probable that future taxable profits will be available against which 
they  can  be  utilised.  Deferred  tax  assets  are  reviewed  at  each 
reporting  date  and  are  reduced  to  the  extent  that  it  is  no  longer 
probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

In determining the amount of current and deferred tax the Group 
takes  into  account  the  impact  of  uncertain  tax  positions  and 
whether additional taxes and interest may be due. This assessment 
relies  on  estimates  and  assumptions  and  may  involve  a  series  of 
judgements  about  future  events.  New  information  may  become 
available that causes the Group to change its judgement regarding 
the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes to tax liabilities 
will impact the tax expense in the period that such a determination 
is made.

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities are 
part of a tax consolidated group. As a consequence, all members 
of  the  tax  consolidated  group  are  taxed  as  a  single  entity.  Skyfii 
Limited became the head entity within the tax consolidated group 
on 20 November 2014 (previously Skyfii Group Pty Ltd). 

Where  the  Group  receives  the  Australian  Government’s  R&D  tax 
incentive, the Group accounts for the refundable tax offset under 
AASB  112.  Funds  are  received  as  a  rebate  through  the  parent 
company’s income tax return and disclosed as such in Note 7.

(d) Inventories

Inventories  are  measured  at  the  lower  of  cost  and  net  realisable 
value.  Costs  of  inventories  are  determined  on  a  first-in,  first-out 

For personal use onlybasis.  Net  realisable  value  represents  the  estimated  selling  price 
for  inventories  less  all  estimated  costs  of  completion  and  costs 
necessary to make the sale.

(e) Plant and equipment 

Plant  and  equipment  is  stated  at  historical  cost  less  depreciation, 
amortisation  and 
includes 
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

losses.  Historical  cost 

impairment 

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually 
to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these 
assets.  The  recoverable  amount  is  assessed  on  the  basis  of  the 
expected  net  cash  flows  that  will  be  received  from  the  asset’s 
employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows 
have not been discounted in determining recoverable amounts. 

Depreciation of all fixed assets is calculated using the straight-line 
method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their 
estimated useful lives, as follows:

•  Office and computer equipment: 3 – 10 years.

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

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

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

(f)  Intangibles

Software development 

Costs  relating  to  research  and  development  of  new  software 
products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has 
been  established.  Costs  incurred  in  developing  new  software  are 
recognised as intangible assets only when technological feasibility 
studies identify that it is probable that the project will deliver future 
economic  benefits  and  these  benefits  can  be  measured  reliably. 
The expenditure capitalised comprises all directly attributable costs, 
including costs of materials, services, licenses and direct labour.

Capitalised  development  costs  have  a  finite  useful  life  and  are 
carried  at  cost  less  accumulated  amortisation  and  impairment 
losses.  Amortisation  is  calculated  on  a  systematic  basis  based  on 
the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project as 
follows: Year 1: 0%; Year 2: 40%; Year 3: 40%; Year 4: 20%.

Customer contracts
Customer contracts acquired are carried at their fair value at date 
of acquisition, less accumulated amortisation. They are amortised 
on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  period  of  their  expected  benefit, 
being their finite useful life between two and six years.

Brand Names 
Brand  Names  acquired  are  carried  at  their  fair  value  at  date  of 
acquisition, less accumulated amortisation. They are amortised on 
a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being 

their finite useful life of five years.

Software 
Software  acquired  are  carried  at  their  fair  value  at  date  of 
acquisition, less accumulated amortisation. They are amortised on 
a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being 
their finite useful life of four years.

(g)  Employee benefits 

Short-term obligations

Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within 12 months 
have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the 
liabilities are settled, plus related on-costs.

The  liability  for  annual  leave  is  recognised  in  the  provision 
for  employee  benefits.  All  other  short-term  employee  benefit 
obligations are presented as payables.

Short term incentive plans

The  Group  recognises  a  liability  and  an  expense  for  bonuses 
payable  under  short  term  incentive  plans.  Short  term  incentive 
plans  are  based  on  the  achievement  of  targeted  performance 
levels that may be set at the beginning of each financial year. The 
Group recognises a liability to pay out short term incentives when 
contractually  obliged  based  on  the  achievement  of  the  stated 
performance  levels,  or  where  there  is  a  past  practice  that  has 
created a constructive obligation.

Other long–term employee benefit obligations 

Employee  benefits  payable  later  than  12  months  have  been 
measured  at  the  present  value  of  the  estimated  future  cash 
outflows to be made for those benefits. In determining the liability, 
consideration  is  given  to  employee  wages  increases  and  the 
probability that the employee may satisfy any vesting requirements. 
Those  cash  flows  are  discounted  using  market  yields  on  national 
government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected 
timing of cash flows attributable to employee benefits.

(h) Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in profit and loss in the period in 
which they are incurred.

(i)  Provisions

Provisions  are  recognised  when  the  Group  has  a  legal  or 
constructive  obligation,  as  a  result  of  past  events,  for  which  it  is 
probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that 
outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions recognised represent 
the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation 
at reporting date.

(j)  Cash and cash equivalents

Cash  and  cash  equivalents  includes  cash  on  hand,  deposits  held 
at  call  with  banks,  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.

37

For the year ended 30 June 2019

(k)  Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided 
to  the  Group  at  the  end  of  financial  year  which  are  unpaid.  The 
amounts are unsecured and are payable as and when they are due. 
Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless 
payment is not due within 12 months from the reporting date.

(l)  Revenue recognition 

The  Group  has  applied  AASB  15:  Revenue  from  Contracts  with 
Customers  using  the  cumulative  effective  method.  The  prior 
period comparatives were reviewed and the impact of AASB 15 on 
revenue  and  deferred  revenue  was  considered  to  be  immaterial 
and therefore comparative balances have not been restated.

On adoption of AASB 15 the company’s revenue streams and their 
impact on adoption of AASB 15 is as follows:

• 

• 

• 

 Installation  (non-recurring)  revenues  under  AASB  15  where 
the  performance  obligation  is  satisfied  and  deemed  to  be 
recognisable  at  the  initial  stage  of  the  contract  continue  to 
be  recognised  in  accordance  with  the  previous  accounting 
policy  however  revenues  related  to  configuration  as  part  of 
the  installation  (non-recurring)  revenues  are  unbundled  and 
amortised over the contract period.

 Recurring  revenues  recognised  over  the  contract  period 
continue  to  be  recognised  in  accordance  with  the  previous 
accounting policy; and

 Services  revenue  recognised  in  the  period  of  when  the 
performance  obligation  is  satisfied  and  is  deemed  to  be 
recognised in accordance with the previous accounting policy.

In the comparative period 

Revenue  was  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration 
received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts 
and  volume  rebates  allowed.  When  the  inflow  of  consideration 
was  deferred,  it  was  treated  as  the  provision  of  financing  and 
was  discounted  at  a  rate  of  interest  that  is  generally  accepted  in 
the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the 
amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately received was 
interest revenue. 

Revenue  from  the  sale  of  goods  and  rendering  of  services  is 
recognised  at  the  point  of  delivery  as  this  corresponds  to  the 
transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods 
and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.

Revenue for installation projects are recognised on the basis of that 
portion of total estimated costs that have been incurred to date in 
the completion of the particular project.

Government  grants  are  recognised  at  fair  value  where  there  is 
reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all grant 
conditions will be met. 

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

(m)  Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount 
of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable 
from  the  Australian  Tax  Office  (ATO).  In  these  circumstances,  the 
GST  is  recognised  as  part  of  the  cost  of  acquisition  of  the  asset 
or  as  part  of  an  item  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 ATO 
is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of 
financial position.

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

(n) Foreign currency transactions and balances

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

Transactions and balances
into  functional 
Foreign  currency  transactions  are  translated 
currency  using  the  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of  the 
transaction.  Foreign  currency  monetary  items  are  translated  at 
the  period-end  exchange  rate.  Non-monetary  items  measured  at 
historical  cost  continue  to  be  carried  at  the  exchange  rate  at  the 
date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value 
are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were 
determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items 
are recognised in the profit or loss, except where deferred in equity 
as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange  differences  arising  on  the  translation  of  non-monetary 
items  are  recognised  directly  in  other  comprehensive  income  to 
the  extent  that  the  underlying  gain  or  loss  is  recognised  in  other 
comprehensive  income,  otherwise  the  exchange  difference  is 
recognised in profit or loss.

38

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
 
Group companies
The  financial  results  and  position  of  foreign  operations  whose 
functional  currency  is  different  from  the  Group’s  presentation 
currency is translated as follows:

• 

• 

• 

 Assets and liabilities are translated at year end exchange rates 
prevailing at that reporting date.

 Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates 
for the year.

 Retained  earnings  are  translated  at  the  exchange  rates 
prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with 
functional currencies other than the Australian dollar are recognised 
in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency 
translation  reserve  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  The 
cumulative  amount  of  these  differences  is  reclassified  into  profit  or 
loss in the period in which the operation is disposed of.

(o) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:

 the profit 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.

• 

• 

Diluted earnings per share

Diluted  earnings  per  share  adjusts  the  figures  used  in  the 
determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:

• 

• 

 the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs 
associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and

 the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been 
issued  for  no  consideration  in  relation  to  dilutive  potential 
ordinary shares.

(p) Financial instruments

Initial recognition and measurement 
Financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  when 
the  Group  becomes  a  party  to  the  contractual  provisions  to  the 
instrument.  For  financial  assets,  this  is  the  date  that  the  Group 
commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (ie trade 
date accounting is adopted). 
Financial  instruments  (except  for  trade  receivables)  are  initially 
measured  at  fair  value  plus  transaction  costs,  except  where  the 
instrument is classified “at fair value through profit or loss”, in which 
case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. 
Where  available,  quoted  prices  in  an  active  market  are  used  to 
determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques 
are adopted. 

Trade  receivables  are  initially  measured  at  the  transaction  price 
if  the  trade  receivables  do  not  contain  a  significant  financing 
component  or  if  the  practical  expedient  was  applied  as  specified 
in AASB 15.63.

Classification and subsequent measurement   
Financial liabilities  
Financial instruments are subsequently measured at: 
• 
• 

 amortised cost; or 
fair value through profit or loss.

A financial liability is measured at fair value through profit and loss 
if the financial liability is:
• 

 a  contingent  consideration  of  an  acquirer  in  a  business 
combination to which AASB 3:Business Combinations applies;

•   held for trading; or
•   initially designated as at fair value through profit or loss. 
All other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised 
cost using the effective interest method.

The  effective  interest  method  is  a  method  of  calculating  the 
amortised  cost  of  a  debt  instrument  and  of  allocating  interest 
expense  in  profit  or  loss  over  the  relevant  period.  The  effective 
interest rate is the internal rate of return of the financial asset or 
liability.  That  is,  it  is  the  rate  that  exactly  discounts  the  estimated 
future cash flows through the expected life of the instrument to the 
net carrying amount at initial recognition.

A financial liability is held for trading if: 
• 

  it is incurred for the purpose of repurchasing or repaying in the 
near term;
 part of a portfolio where there is an actual pattern of short-term 
profit taking; or
 a  derivative  financial  instrument  (except  for  a  derivative  that 
is in a financial guarantee contract or a derivative that is in an 
effective hedging relationships). 

Any gains or losses arising on changes in fair value are recognised 
in profit or loss to the extent that they are not part of a designated 
hedging relationship are recognised in profit or loss. 

The  change  in  fair  value  of  the  financial  liability  attributable  to 
changes in the issuer’s credit risk is taken to other comprehensive 
income  and  are  not  subsequently  reclassified  to  profit  or 
loss.  Instead,  they  are  transferred  to  retained  earnings  upon 
derecognition  of  the  financial  liability.  If  taking  the  change  in 
credit risk in other comprehensive income enlarges or creates an 
accounting mismatch, then these gains or losses should be taken to 
profit or loss rather than other comprehensive income.

A financial liability cannot be reclassified.

Financial guarantee contracts
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer 
to  make  specified  payments  to  reimburse  the  holder  for  a  loss  it 
incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due 
in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

Financial  guarantee  contracts  are  initially  measured  at  fair  values 
(and  if  not  designated  as  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  and 
do not arise from a transfer of a financial asset) and subsequently 
measured at the higher of:
• 

 the  amount  of  loss  allowance  determined  in  accordance  with 
AASB 9.3.25.3; and 
 the amount initially recognised less the accumulative amount of 
income recognised in accordance with the revenue recognition 
policies.

Notes to the financial statements continued 
For the year ended 30 June 2019

Financial assets 
Financial assets are subsequently measured at:
•  amortised cost;
• 
• 

fair value through other comprehensive income; or
 fair value through profit or loss. Measurement is on the basis of 
two primary criteria:
 the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset; 
and
 the business model for managing the financial assets.

• 

• 

 A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently 
measured at amortised cost: – the financial asset is managed solely 
to collect contractual cash flows; and
• 

 the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash 
flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the 
principal amount outstanding on specified dates.

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently 
measured at fair value through other comprehensive income:
• 

 the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash 
flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the 
principal amount outstanding on specified dates;
  the business model for managing the financial assets comprises 
both  contractual  cash  flows  collection  and  the  selling  of  the 
financial asset.

• 

By  default,  all  other  financial  assets  that  do  not  meet  the 
measurement conditions of amortised cost and fair value through 
other  comprehensive  income  are  subsequently  measured  at  fair 
value through profit or loss.

The Group initially designates a financial instrument as measured 
at fair value through profit or loss if:
• 

 it  eliminates  or  significantly  reduces  a  measurement  or 
recognition  inconsistency  (often  referred  to  as  “accounting 
mismatch”)  that  would  otherwise  arise  from  measuring  assets 
or  liabilities  or  recognising  the  gains  and  losses  on  them  on 
different bases;
 it  is  in  accordance  with  the  documented  risk  management  or 
investment strategy, and information about the groupings was 
documented  appropriately,  so  that  the  performance  of  the 
financial liability that was part of a group of financial liabilities or 
financial assets can be managed and evaluated consistently on 
a fair value basis;
 it is a hybrid contract that contains an embedded derivative that 
significantly modifies the cash flows otherwise required by the 
contract.

• 

• 

The  initial  designation  of  the  financial  instruments  to  measure 
at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  is  a  one-time  option  on 
initial  classification  and  is  irrevocable  until  the  financial  asset  is 
derecognised.

Equity instruments
At  initial  recognition,  as  long  as  the  equity  instrument  is  not  held 
for  trading  and  not  a  contingent  consideration  recognised  by  an 
acquirer  in  a  business  combination  to  which  AASB  3:  Business 
Combinations  applies,  the  Group  made  an  irrevocable  election 
to  measure  any  subsequent  changes  in  fair  value  of  the  equity 
instruments  in  other  comprehensive  income,  while  the  dividend 

40

revenue received on underlying equity instruments investment will 
still be recognised in profit or loss.
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised 
and  derecognised  at  settlement  date  in  accordance  with  the 
Group’s accounting policy.

Derecognition
Derecognition  refers  to  the  removal  of  a  previously  recognised 
financial  asset  or  financial  liability  from  the  statement  of  financial 
position.

Derecognition of financial liabilities
A  liability  is  derecognised  when  it  is  extinguished  (ie  when  the 
obligation  in  the  contract  is  discharged,  cancelled  or  expires). 
An  exchange  of  an  existing  financial  liability  for  a  new  one  with 
substantially  modified  terms,  or  a  substantial  modification  to  the 
terms of a financial liability is treated as an extinguishment of the 
existing liability and recognition of a new financial liability.

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability 
derecognised and the consideration paid and payable, including any 
non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in 
profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets
A  financial  asset  is  derecognised  when  the  holder’s  contractual 
rights to its cash flows expires, or

the asset is transferred in such a way that all the risks and rewards 
of ownership are substantially transferred.

All of the following criteria need to be satisfied for derecognition of 
financial asset:
• 

 the  right  to  receive  cash  flows  from  the  asset  has  expired  or 
been transferred;
 all  risk  and  rewards  of  ownership  of  the  asset  have  been 
substantially transferred; and
 the  Group  no  longer  controls  the  asset  (ie  the  Group  has  no 
practical ability to make a unilateral decision to sell the asset to 
a third party).

• 

• 

On derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortised cost, 
the  difference  between  the  asset’s  carrying  amount  and  the  sum 
of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit 
or loss.

On  derecognition  of  a  debt  instrument  classified  as  at  fair  value 
through other comprehensive income, the cumulative gain or loss 
previously  accumulated  in  the  investment  revaluation  reserve  is 
reclassified to profit or loss.

On  derecognition  of  an  investment  in  equity  which  was  elected 
to  be  classified  under  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive 
income, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in the 
investment revaluation reserve is not reclassified to profit or loss, 
but is transferred to retained earnings.

Impairment
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on:
• 

 financial  assets  that  are  measured  at  amortised  cost  or  fair 
value through other comprehensive income;
lease receivables;
 contract  assets  (eg  amounts  due  from  customers  under 
construction contracts);
 loan commitments that are not measured at fair value through 
profit or loss; and
 financial guarantee contracts that are not measured at fair value 
through profit or loss. Loss allowance is not recognised for:
•  financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss; or
 equity  instruments  measured  at  fair  value  through  other 
• 
comprehensive income.

• 

• 

Expected  credit  losses  are  the  probability-weighted  estimate  of 
credit  losses  over  the  expected  life  of  a  financial  instrument.  A 
credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that 
are due and all cash flows expected to be received, all discounted at 
the original effective interest rate of the financial instrument.

• 

• 

Purchased or originated credit-impaired approach
For  a  financial  asset  that  is  considered  credit-impaired  (not  on 
acquisition  or  origination),  the  Group  measures  any  change  in  its 
lifetime expected credit loss as the difference between the asset’s 
gross carrying amount and the present value of estimated future 
cash  flows  discounted  at  the  financial  asset’s  original  effective 
interest rate. Any adjustment is recognised in profit or loss as an 
impairment gain or loss.

Evidence of credit impairment includes:
•  significant financial difficulty of the issuer or borrower;
•  a breach of contract (eg default or past due event);
• 

 a  lender  granting  to  the  borrower  a  concession,  due  to  the 
borrower’s  financial  difficulty,  that  the 
lender  would  not 
otherwise consider;
 high probability that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other 
financial reorganisation; and
 the  disappearance  of  an  active  market  for  the  financial  asset 
because  of  financial  difficulties.  Low  credit  risk  operational 
simplification approach

The  Group  uses  the  following  approaches  to  impairment,  as 
applicable under AASB 9: Financial Instruments:
• 
• 
• 
• 

the general approach
the simplified approach
 the purchased or originated credit impaired approach; and
low credit risk operational simplification.

General approach
Under the general approach, at each reporting period, the Group 
assesses  whether  the  financial  instruments  are  credit-impaired, 
and if: 
• 

 the  credit  risk  of  the  financial  instrument  has  increased 
significantly  since  initial  recognition,  the  Group  measures  the 
loss allowance of the financial instruments at an amount equal 
to the lifetime expected credit losses; or
 there  is  no  significant  increase  in  credit  risk  since  initial 
recognition,  the  Group  measures  the  loss  allowance  for  that 
financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected 
credit losses.

• 

Simplified approach
The  simplified  approach  does  not  require  tracking  of  changes 
in  credit  risk  at  every  reporting  period,  but  instead  requires 
the  recognition  of  lifetime  expected  credit  loss  at  all  times.  This 
approach is applicable to:
• 

 trade receivables or contract assets that result from transactions 
within  the  scope  of  AASB  15:  Revenue  from  Contracts  with 
Customers  and  which  do  not  contain  a  significant  financing 
component; and
lease receivables.

• 

In measuring the expected credit loss, a provision matrix for trade 
receivables was used taking into consideration various data to get to 
an expected credit loss (ie diversity of customer base, appropriate 
groupings of historical loss experience, etc).

If a financial asset is determined to have low credit risk at the initial 
reporting  date,  the  Group  assumes  that  the  credit  risk  has  not 
increased  significantly  since  initial  recognition  and  accordingly  it 
can continue to recognise a loss allowance of 12-month expected 
credit loss.

In order to make such a determination that the financial asset has 
low credit risk, the Group applies its internal credit risk ratings or 
other methodologies using a globally comparable definition of low 
credit risk.

A financial asset is considered to have low credit risk if:
• 
• 

there is a low risk of default by the borrower;
 the borrower has strong capacity to meet its contractual cash 
flow obligations in the near term;

•  adverse  changes  in  economic  and  business  conditions  in  the 
longer term may, but not necessarily will, reduce the ability of the 
borrower to fulfil its contractual cash flow obligations.

A  financial  asset  is  not  considered  to  carry  low  credit  risk  merely 
due to existence of collateral, or because a borrower has a risk of 
default lower than the risk inherent in the financial assets, or lower 
than the credit risk of the jurisdiction in which it operates. 

Recognition of expected credit losses in financial statements

At each reporting date, the Group recognises the movement in the 
loss  allowance  as  an  impairment  gain  or  loss  in  the  statement  of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 

The  carrying  amount  of  financial  assets  measured  at  amortised 
cost includes the loss allowance relating to that asset.

Assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income 
are recognised at fair value, with changes in fair value recognised 
in other comprehensive income. Amounts in relation to change in 
credit  risk  are  transferred  from  other  comprehensive  income  to 
profit or loss at every reporting period.

For  financial  assets  that  are  unrecognised  (eg  loan  commitments 
yet to be drawn, financial guarantees), a provision for loss allowance 
is  created  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  to  recognise  the 
loss allowance.

(q) Impairment of assets

At the end of each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying 
values  of  its  tangible  and  intangible  assets  to  determine  whether 
there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such 
an  indication  exists,  the  recoverable  amount  of  the  asset,  being 
the  higher  of  the  asset’s  fair  value  less  costs  to  sell  and  value  in 
use,  is  compared  to  the  asset’s  carrying  value.  Any  excess  of  the 
asset’s  carrying  value  over  its  recoverable  amount  is  recognised 
immediately in the profit and loss.

Impairment  testing 
intangible assets with indefinite lives.

is  performed  annually  for  goodwill  and 

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an 
individual  asset,  the  Group  estimates  the  recoverable  amount  of 
the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.

(r)  Leases

Leases  in  which  a  significant  portion  of  the  risks  and  rewards  of 
ownership are not transferred to the Group as lessee are classified 
as  operating  leases.  Leases  are  made  up  of  operating  leases  of 
property.  Payments  made  under  operating  leases  (net  of  any 
incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the consolidated 
income  statement  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  period  of  the 
lease.  Benefits  that  are  provided  to  the  Group  as  an  incentive  to 
enter  into  a  lease  arrangement  are  recognised  as  a  liability  and 
amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

(s)  Comparative figures

When  required  by  Accounting  Standards,  comparative  figures 
have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the 
current financial year. 

Where the Group has retrospectively applied an accounting policy, 
made  a  retrospective  restatement  or  reclassified  items  in  its 
financial  statements,  an  additional  statement  of  financial  position 
as  at  the  beginning  of  the  earliest  comparative  period  will  be 
disclosed.

(t)  Contributed equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly 
attributable  to  the  issue  of  new  shares,  are  shown  in  equity  as  a 
deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

(u) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the 
internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. 
These  include  items  directly  attributable  to  a  segment  as  well  as 
those  that  can  be  allocated  on  a  reasonable  basis.  Unallocated 
items comprise mainly corporate assets (primarily  the Company’s 
headquarters),  head  office  expenses,  and  income  tax  assets  and 
liabilities. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as 
the Board of Directors.

(v)   Critical accounting estimates and judgments
The  directors  evaluate  estimates  and  judgements  incorporated 
into  the  financial  report  based  on  historical  knowledge  and  best 
available  current  information.  Estimates  assume  a  reasonable 
expectation of future events and are based on current trends and 
economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group. The 
resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the 
related  actual  results.  The  estimates  and  judgements  that  have 
a  significant  risk  of  causing  a  material  adjustment  to  the  carrying 
amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are 
discussed below.

Impairment of intangible assets
The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating 
conditions  specific  to  the  Group  that  may  lead  to  impairment  of 
assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount 
of the asset is determined. Value-in-use calculations are performed 
in assessing recoverable amounts which incorporate a number of 
key estimates. 
Should  the  software  development  expenditure  not  meet  the 
requirements  set  out  in  Note  3(f),  an  impairment  loss  would  be 
recognised up to the maximum carrying value of intangible assets 
at 30 June 2019 of $6,240,523.

R&D tax incentive
The  Group  has  established  a  precedent  for  entitlement  to  the 
R&D  tax  incentive  in  prior  periods.  This  experience  supports  the 
assumption  that  eligibility  for  the  tax  incentive  will  continue  on 
the  same  basis,  and  accordingly,  it  is  appropriate  to  recognise 
entitlement to the receivable in the current period. The value of the 
R&D tax incentive entitlement is determined by notional deductions 
based on eligible R&D expenditures.

(w) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods 

The AASB has issued a number of new and amended Accounting 
Standards  that  have  mandatory  application  dates  for  future 
reporting  periods,  some  of  which  are  relevant  to  the  Group. 
The  directors  have  decided  not  to  early-adopt  any  of  the  new 
and  amended  pronouncements.  The  following  sets  out  their 
assessment of the pronouncements that are relevant to the Group 
but applicable in future reporting periods.

–    AASB  16:  Leases  (applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods 

beginning on or after 1 January 2019).

The Group has chosen not to early-adopt AASB 16. However, the 
Group  has  conducted  a  preliminary  assessment  of  the  impact  of 
this new Standard, as follows.

A core change resulting from applying AASB 16 is that most leases 
will be recognised on the balance sheet by lessees as the standard 
no longer differentiates between operating and finance leases. An 
asset and a financial liability are recognised in accordance to this 
new Standard. 

42

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
 
Basis of preparation
The  accounting  for  the  Group’s  operating  leases  will  be  primarily 
affected by this new Standard.
AASB 16 will be applied by the Group from its mandatory adoption
date of 1 July 2019. The comparative amounts for the year prior to
first adoption will not be restated, as the Group has chosen to apply
AASB 16 retrospectively with cumulative effect. While the right-of-
use assets for property leases will be measured on transition as if 
the new rules had always been applied, all other right-of-use assets
will be measured at the amount of the lease liability on adoption 
(after adjustments for any prepaid or accrued lease expenses).
The Group’s non-cancellable operating lease commitments amount
to $77,500 as at the reporting date. 
The  Group  has  performed  a  preliminary  impact  assessment 
and  subject  to  extending  its  current  lease  has  estimated  that  on 
1  July  2019,  the  Group  may  recognise  right-of-use  assets  and 
lease  liabilities  of  approximately  $77,500.  The  current  operating 
lease term ends in  December 2019. The company is currently in 
discussions  regarding  extending  its  current  lease  however  at  the 
date of this report this item remains open.
Given  that  the  Group’s  activities  as  a  lessor  will  not  be  materially 
impacted  by  this  new  Standard,  the  Group  does  not  expect 
any  significant  impact  on  its  financial  statement  from  a  lessor 
perspective. Nonetheless, starting from 2020, additional disclosures
will be required.

4.  Operating segments

The  Group  operates  predominantly  in  two  geographical  segments,  being  the  development  and  commercialisation  of  data  analytics, 
marketing and advertising services to its customers in Australia and Internationally. The Group has identified its operating segments based 
on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance 
and determining the allocation of resources.

The  Group  applies  the  simplified  approach  to  providing  for  expected  credit  losses  prescribed  by  AASB  9,  which  permits  the  use  of  the 
lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based 
on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. The loss allowance provision as at 30 June 2019 has been determined as follows; 
the expected credit losses also incorporates forward looking information.

The fair value of the options over the shares is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair 
value is measured and recognised at grant date, being 30 November 2016 and 29 November 2018.

The fair value at grant date is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term 
of the options, the impact of dilution, the non-tradeable nature of the options, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of 
the underlying shares, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the options.

In April 2019, all options with an exercise price of $0.10, $0.125 and $0.15 were fully exercised as fully paid ordinary shares contributing a 
total of $487,500 as cashflows from financing activities.

18.  Financial risk management

Financial risk management objectives

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. Risk management 
policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks 
and adhere to limits. Risk management is carried out by senior executives under policies approved by the Board of Directors. These policies 
include identification and analysis of the risk exposure of the Group and appropriate procedures, controls and risk limits. Finance identifies, 
evaluates and hedges financial risks within the Group’s operating units.

The Group holds the following financial instruments:

The  carrying  value  of  the  assets  and  liabilities  disclosed  in  the  table  above  closely  approximates  or  equals  their  fair  value.  The  carrying 
amounts of trade receivables and trade and other payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

(a) Market risk

Foreign currency risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange 
rates. Foreign currency is translated using the average exchange rates at the dates of transactions each month and at the end of each month 
the balance sheet is restated using the end of month spot rate. To minimise risk the Group’s policy is, when available to hold a natural hedge 
on any foreign currency, being that any receipts paid to the Group will held in the same foreign currency and then later used to settle any 
expenditure in those foreign entities. 

Interest rate risk
The Group is not exposed to any significant interest rate risk.

(b) Credit risk

Credit  risk  is  the  risk  of  financial  loss  to  the  Group  if  a  customer  or  counterparty  to  a  financial  instrument  fails  to  meet  its  contractual 
obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers. 

Other  credit  risk  arises  from  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  deposits  with  banks  and  other  financial  institutions,  security  deposits,  other 
receivables and GST receivable from the ATO.

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for 
impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. The Group does not 
hold any collateral.

Credit risk is managed by a risk assessment process for all customers and counterparties, which takes into account past experience.

There have been no impairment losses recognised during the year (2018: nil).

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s approach to managing 
liquidity is to ensure, where possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due.

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity management rests with the Directors. The Group ensures that, where possible, it has sufficient cash on 
demand to meet expected net cash outflows, including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the potential impact of extreme 
circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

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

Financing arrangements
On 14 May 2019, the Company announced it obtained unsecured loan facilities of $2 million in aggregate from sophisticated investors, 
Thorney  Technologies  LTD  (ASX:TEK),  Jagafii  Pty  Ltd  a  company  associated  with  Skyfii  director,  Jon  Adgemis  and  BMR  Securities  Pty  Ltd.  
The initial term of the loan facility is for 2 years and matures on 31 May 2021, with a conditional option to extend for a further 12 months. 
Interest on the loan facility is payable quarterly, with a total annual interest rate of 8% on funds drawn plus an annual line fee of 2%. Amount 
drawn down at balance date amount to $503,750 with line fee and interest accrued of $5,802

Maturities of financial liabilities
The following table details the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial instrument liabilities. The table has been drawn up 
based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the financial liabilities are required to be 
paid. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows disclosed as remaining contractual maturities and therefore these totals may 
differ from their carrying amount in the statement of financial position.

(d) Capital management

The Board’s aim is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence to sustain future development 
of the business and increase shareholder value. The Board ensures the Group has sufficient capital as required for working capital purposes. 
There were no changes to the Group’s approach to capital management during the year. The Group is not subject to externally imposed 
capital requirements.

During the year ended 30 June 2016, the Company established a share based payment plan, the Employee Share Plan (ESP) to assist the 
Company in retaining and attracting current and future employees by providing them with the opportunity to own shares in the Company. 
This was refreshed at the 2018 AGM on 29 November 2018.

The key terms of the ESP are as follows:

 the Board may invite a person who is employed or engaged by or holds an office with the Group (whether on a full or part-time basis) and 
who is declared by the Board to be eligible to participate in the ESP from time to time (Eligible Employee) to apply for fully paid ordinary 
shares under the plan from time to time (ESP Shares);

 invitations to apply for ESP Shares are to be made on the basis of the market price per share defined as the volume weighted average 
price at which the Company’s shares have traded during the 30 days immediately preceding the date of the invitation; 

 invitations to apply for ESP Shares under the ESP will be made on a basis determined by the Board (including as to the conditionality on 
the achievement of any key performance indicators) and notified to Eligible Employees in the invitation, or if no such determination is 
made by the Board, on the basis that ESP Shares will be subject to a 3 year vesting period, with:

-  33% of ESP Shares applied for vesting on the date that is the first anniversary of the issue date of the ESP Shares; 

-  33% of ESP Shares applied for vesting on the date that is the second anniversary of the issue date of the ESP Shares; and 

-  34% of ESP Shares applied for vesting on the date that is the third anniversary of the issue date of the ESP Shares.

56

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
• 

 Eligible Employees who accept an invitation (ESP Participants) may be offered an interest free loan from the Company to finance the 
whole of the purchase of the ESP Shares they are invited to apply for (ESP Loan). ESP Loans will have a term of 5 years and become 
repayable in full on the earlier of: 

- 

- 

the fifth anniversary of the issue date of the ESP Shares; and

if the ESP Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee, either:

• 

• 

the fifth anniversary of the issue date of the ESP Shares, if the Eligible Employee is a good leaver (as defined in the ESP); or

that date of cessation, if the Eligible Employee is a bad leaver (as defined in the ESP).

 if the ESP Participant does not repay the outstanding ESP Loan, or it notifies the Company that it cannot, then such number of ESP Shares 
that equal by value (using the price at which the ESP Shares were issued) the outstanding amount of the ESP Loan will become the 
subject of a buy-back notice from the Company which the ESP Participant must accept. The buy-back of such number of ESP Shares will 
be considered full and final satisfaction of the ESP Loan and the Company will not have any further recourse against the ESP Participant;

 any dividends received by the ESP Participant whilst the whole or part of the ESP Loan remains outstanding must be applied to the 
repayment of the ESP Loan;

 the maximum number of ESP Shares for which invitations may be issued under the ESP together with the number of ESP Shares still to 
be issued in respect of already accepted invitations and that have already been issued in response to invitations in the previous 5 years 
(but disregarding ESP Shares that are or were issued following invitations to non-residents, that did not require a disclosure document 
under the Corporations Act, or that were issued under a disclosure document under the Corporations Act) must not exceed 10% of the 
total number of ordinary shares on issue in the Company at the time the invitations are made;

 in the event of a corporate reconstruction, the Board will adjust, subject to the Listing Rules (if applicable), any one or more of the maximum 
number of shares that may be issued under the ESP (if applicable), the subscription price, the buy-back price and the number of ESP 
Shares to be vested at any future vesting date (if applicable), as it deems appropriate so that the benefits conferred on ESP Participants 
after a corporate reconstruction are the same as the benefits enjoyed by the ESP Participants before the corporate reconstruction. On 
conferring the benefit of any corporate reconstruction, any fractional entitlements to shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole 
share;

 ESP Participants will continue to have the right to participate in dividends paid by the Company despite some or all of their ESP Shares 
not having vested yet or being subject to an ESP Loan. If an ESP Loan has been made to the ESP Participant, then any dividend due must 
first be applied to reducing any outstanding ESP Loan amount applicable to the ESP Shares on which the dividend is paid;

 ESP Shares which have not vested and/or are subject to repayment of the ESP Loan will be restricted (escrowed) from trading;

 the Company may buy-back at the issue price any ESP Shares which:

- 

 have not vested, or are incapable of vesting at any time (including as a result of the ESP Participant failing to meet any key performance 
indicators on which vesting of ESP Shares is conditional); or

- 

remain in escrow and/or are the subject of an ESP Loan, on the occurrence of:

 the ESP Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Employee (unless the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion determines otherwise, subject 
to any conditions that it may apply, including the repayment of any outstanding ESP Loan); or

the expiration of the term of the ESP Loan.

 any bonus securities issued in relation to ESP Shares which remain unvested or are subject to an ESP Loan which becomes repayable in 
full will be the subject of a buy-back by the Company at the issue price for no consideration;

 on the death or permanent disability of an ESP Participant, all ESP Shares held by the ESP Participant or their estate will immediately vest 
subject to the repayment of any outstanding ESP Loan by the curator, executor or nominated beneficiary(ies) (as the case may be) within 
30 days of their appointment (or such longer period as the Company in its discretion may allow). Failing such repayment, the Company 
will buy-back all ESP Shares in respect of which there is an outstanding ESP Loan;

 the rules of the ESP and any amendment to the rules of the ESP must be in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act;

 if, while the Company’s shares are traded on the ASX or any other stock exchange, there is any inconsistency between the terms of the 
ESP and the Listing Rules, the Listing Rules will prevail; and

(c) Executive Option Plan (EOP)

During the financial year ended 30 June 2019, the Company established a share based option plan, the Executive Option Plan (EOP) seeks to 
closely align the interest of eligible senior executives participating in the EOP (Executive Participants) with those of investors and to ensure 
that the EOP Participants are motivated and rewarded for performance, shareholder return and compensated for remuneration in lieu of 
cash payments in line with the economic value created.

The options under the EOP (EOP Options) will entitle their holder to receive ordinary shares in the capital of the Company (EOP Shares) 
upon satisfaction of certain vesting conditions as determined by the Board from time to time.

The key terms of the EOP are as follows:

EOP Options provide an opportunity to acquire EOP Shares subject to the payment of the exercise price set at the time of the grant of the 
EOP Options (Exercise Price) and EOP Participants can continue to hold the EOP Options after they have vested. 

EOP Options will vest upon notification by the Company that the EOP Options have vested and the Company.

EOP Options enable the participant to gain the benefit of any excess of the Share price over the Exercise Price paid.  In the event the Share 
price is equal to or below the Exercise Price, the EOP Options would be of no value.

In order for the EOP Options to vest, the Vesting Conditions set out in the invitation, or otherwise determined by the Board, for the grant 
of the EOP Options must have been satisfied. In addition, at the time of vesting, a participant must not have engaged in serious and wilful 
misconduct, wilful disobedience, gross negligence or incompetence, insubordination, disqualification under Part 2D.6 of the Corporations 
Act 2001 (Cth), a serious breach of an employment agreement and behaviour which damages the business or reputation of the Company 
(Proscribed Conduct)

If the participant engages in Proscribed Conduct, then the EOP Options will be forfeited.

The EOP Options will not be quoted nor will they carry an entitlement to dividends or a right to vote at General Meetings of the Company.

The  invitation  to  participate  in  the  EOP  will  specify  the  number  of  EOP  Options  to  be  granted.  If  Vesting  Conditions  are  not  met,  then 
unvested EOP Options will be forfeited.  If the relevant targets are achieved the EOP Options will vest and may be exercised, by payment of 
the Exercise Price. This can be done at any time up to ten years after the grant of the EOP Options.

Notes to the financial statements continued 
For the year ended 30 June 2019

All Eligible Employees who accepted an offer of ESP and EOP shares were given an interest free loan from the Company to finance the whole 
of the purchase of the ESP shares they were invited to apply for (ESP and EOP Loan).

The ESP and EOP Loans are provided to participants on a non-recourse basis and upon vesting must be repaid in order to remove trading 
restrictions on vested ESP and EOP shares. The term of the ESP and EOP Loan is five years; however, participants may forfeit their ESP and 
EOP shares if they do not repay the ESP and EOP Loan or leave the Company. As the ESP and EOP removes the risk to participants from 
decreases in the share price by limiting the maximum loan amount repayable to the value of the ESP and EOP shares disposed and waiving 
the ESP and EOP Loan should the participant forfeit their ESP and EOP shares, whilst still allowing participants the rewards of any increase in 
share price, the Company has effectively granted the participants an option to the ESP and EOP shares due to the ESP and EOP Loans being 
non-recourse. As such, this arrangement is accounted for under AASB 2.

The assessed weighted average fair value at grant date of the effective share options granted during the financial year is $0.088 per option 
(2018: $0.0357). Options were priced using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the 
option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield 
and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. The expected volatility of the Company’s shares is based on the historical volatility 
of the Company’s shares and other ASX listed companies considered to be comparable to Skyfii Limited.

The model inputs for the share option grants outstanding during the year ended 30 June 2019 include:
•  Weighted average exercise price: various 30 day VWAP at time of issue
•  Weighted average life of the option: 5 years
•  Expected share price volatility: 61%
•  Risk-free interest rate: 1.90%
