Managing Directors’ Review
Managing Director’s Review
Dear Fellow Shareholder,
Financial year 2021 was a rollercoaster for Spectur Limited, as it was for many companies and people in our community.
Following on from a challenging H2 FY20, our customers, business and people remained exposed to a market characterised
by extended lockdowns and uncertainty. The second half of the financial year saw sentiment improve with the advent of
increasingly available vaccines, as well as an ongoing shift in the Spectur business as management implemented its growth
strategy. The contrast in halves was stark in financial terms. Against an uncertain global backdrop, Spectur executed
strategy consistent with a strengthening corporate culture based around our shared values and vision for the business.
Vision, Values and Mission
Following the strategic direction that the Company set in mid-2020, Spectur has been on a journey evolving from a product-
oriented business to a solutions-oriented business. Our corporate vision is to harness the power of renewable energy to
bring autonomous sensing, thinking and action to customers outdoors. This has shaped the customer sectors we have
targeted, the products and solutions we have developed and the technology we are researching. To deliver on this vision,
our chosen pathway (or mission) is through:
• A premium offering;
• Constant evolution of our sales and technology towards more differentiated and less commodified solutions; and
•
Improving and maturing our internal processes and systems to support these pathways.
We pursue this mission towards our vision in a culture characterised by honesty, customer focus, innovation, excellence
and team orientation. We have made some positive strides in FY21 and I am proud of this business, the people in it and the
positive difference that we make to our communities.
FY21 strategy review
Spectur’s strategic plan for FY21 was built around four key pillars:
1. Expanding product lines
2. Gaining entry into major projects
3. Adding sales channels; and
4.
Improving sales through enhanced marketing.
Against these objectives we scored highly.
FY21 saw the introduction of the STA6 platform to Spectur, bringing an unprecedented level of capability and features to
the market. The STA6 platform delivers up to 4 cameras in 4k ultra-low light configuration, paired with advanced 32-bit
processors equipped with uniquely programmable edge artificial intelligence. This platform delivers the first production-
scale solar-powered “fog computing” platform into the market. Market demand exceeded supply for much of H1 and was
addressed in H2.
Spectur also expanded the HD5 platform range to include material variants solving safety, warning and communications
needs. Incorporating sophisticated and robust two-way (video and audio) communications as well as advanced prototyping
of a digital signboard, these variants are now ready for broader scale production and sales.
Major projects were another area where Spectur made considerable strides. In FY20, Spectur did not secure new contracts
with values above $100k. In FY21, Spectur secured nearly $2m of contracts with values in excess of $100k. This
transformation in order size and customer quality was in response to the implementation of the outbound sales team and
processes, ongoing account management and the development of compelling technology that could meet customer needs
at scale.
This financial year was also characterised by unprecedented and welcome stability in our sales team. With the final hires
occurring in July and August 2021, the sales team is experienced and familiar with the Spectur solutions. The fruits of
extended outbound prospecting and customer account management are being harvested. The addition of Mr Robin Walford,
a very experienced Sales Manager (and former CEO) ultimately into the role of Chief Sales and Operations Officer, rounded
out the team at the end of H1 and is propelling ongoing growth in the sales pipeline.
In addition to the maturing of the sales team, Spectur also investigated growing a number of additional sales channels, the
most notable of which culminated in the formation of a joint venture with Deus-Ex Limited in NZ to create Spectur NZ. This
business is now established, generating revenues and is expected to increase its contributions in FY22.
The final element of the FY21 strategy was to grow sales through enhanced marketing. Spectur engaged a highly respected
digital marketing partner, concluded the bottom-up build of a new website that reflected our corporate strategy and
Spectur Limited – Annual Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2021
Page 4 of 66
Managing Directors’ Review
experimented with a range of different outbound and inbound marketing strategies. Whilst “success has many fathers”,
enhanced marketing was surely a material contributor to revenue improvement of nearly 60% in H2 over H1.
Financial results
As discussed above, Spectur’s FY21 financial performance was a tale of two halves. The first half of the year was
characterised by very tight cost control and cost reduction, whilst available funds were invested in future growth around
marketing, sales and technology. The second half of the year saw the fruits of earlier investments and the growth of the
pipeline. Key milestones and metrics include:
•
•
•
Revenue growth from FY21 H1 of $2.04m to FY21 H2 $3.21m – nearly 60%.
Reduction in loss from FY21 H1 of $1.02m to FY21 H2 $740k – more than 25% improvement.
Finished the financial year with $1.69m of cash and an unused debt facility of $1.5m.
FY22 strategy
The current (FY22) financial year brings an evolution and compounding of the successful elements and investments in
FY21. Core strategic elements include:
1. Evolving the customer profile towards more differentiated buyers
Core to our mission has been the provision of a differentiated offering to sustain the historically high gross margins that
Spectur has enjoyed. In the coming period, Spectur will continue to invest in outbound sales effort and associated targeted
marketing on customers that value a differentiated or unique offering and can buy at scale. At present this focus continues
to be on government, utilities and construction customers, and is expanding incrementally towards adjacent groups.
2. Product and technology advances
Increased connectivity with customers has meant that Spectur has greater visibility on current and future needs of target
sectors. This financial year will see further development of the core platforms, including the STA7, roll out of a broader
range of internal and third-party AI applications and deployment of the expanded IoT sensing suite that will complement our
current security, surveillance, safety and warning solutions. It is also expected that broader commercialisation of the two-
way communications capabilities developed in FY21 (VOIP phones and digital signboards) will continue.
3. Production scaling
FY22 will see ongoing evolution in the methods of production of core technology, whilst investigations and plans are made
for future, larger scale production. A range of options considering geography, advanced manufacturing technologies,
shipping and capital costs will be considered in the preparation of this longer-range blueprint for production scaling. Spectur
production capability needs to be ready for efficient, broader geographical deployment.
4. System and process maturation
As Spectur moves from start up to scaling up, internal systems and processes, including enterprise resource planning
(ERP), will be upgraded, matured and evolved, to deliver higher reliability, lower cost and overall improved performance.
Outlook
As of 25 August 2021, Spectur has increased the unweighted pipeline to $5.62m of work ($2.33m of weighted pipeline), a
stable and engaged workforce, strong technical and institutional foundations and a clear plan to drive sustainable growth.
Whilst there remains the ever-present potential of government-enforced lockdowns, pandemics and other events beyond
the control of Spectur, the need for our solutions remains clearer than ever and the resilience of our target customer base
increases. For comparative purposes, even with more than half of the country in lockdown, the revenues for July 2021 are
more than 40% higher than those experienced in July 2020.
We plan to inform the market of our ongoing technical developments, strategy implementation and material sales results
throughout the year, demonstrating the predictable delivery of our plans. Thank you for your support during these interesting
times. Spectur has a unique position in a global marketplace worth more than a billion dollars (solar sensing, thinking and
action). We look forward to sharing this journey with you.
Yours sincerely,
Gerard Dyson

Future Developments
The last twelve months saw the consolidation of a revised marketing strategy, a stabilised outbound sales team and a new
product line (the STA6). Spectur’s focus in the coming twelve months is to:
•
•
•
Continue the migration of the customer base from more transactional inbound customers to more strategic
customers in our target sectors of government and utilities, major construction and adjacent groups. In particular,
the Company is looking to focus on customers where the differentiated capabilities of Spectur around
customisation, integration, low power and data management and “fog” computing can be leveraged.
Further optimise and narrow the focus of marketing activities to target key customer groups and support the sales
process. This will include key outbound events, publications and other digital marketing.
Extend the next phase of the research and development long term roadmap. This includes a number of key
performance, reliability, cost and production related elements of existing platforms as well as the development of
new features and the next generation STA7. Ultimately, Spectur is seeking to build a fully modular software and
hardware platform in the next three-year period, integrating core Spectur technology with third party sensing, AI
and peripherals.
• Mature internal processes as the business increases scale. Combined with the implementation of a new, company
wide, Microsoft Dynamics ERP, processes around research and development through to production will be
matured and documented supporting scaling, efficiency in execution and the ability to interact productively with
partner organisations.
Diversity
The Company believes that the promotion of diversity on its Board and within the organisation generally is good practice
and is committed to managing diversity as a means of enhancing the Company’s performance. The Company has two
Officers / Directors who are female, Bilyana Smith (Non-executive director) and Suzie Foreman (company secretary).
Further information is set out in the Corporate Governance statement detailed on the Company’s website.

Auditor independence

Remuneration Report (Audited)
Variable Remuneration – Long Term Incentive Plan
Performance rights were granted to executives with hurdles that apply as follows for FY21:
(1) 75% of the LTIP grant is subject to an Earnings Per Share (EPS) hurdle; and
(2) 25% of the LTIP grant is subject to a Total Shareholder Return (TSR) hurdle.
The use of two performance hurdles was consistent with market practice at the time.
For FY21 the performance hurdles were amended to reflect an equal weighting against Full Year FY2023 Revenue and Full
Year FY2023 EBITDA (both tested at the end of FY23). The Remuneration Committee and Board considered that as a result
of the general economic uncertainty surrounding the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, a reduced timeframe of 2 years
and performance hurdles relating to internal financial measurements under the control of the executive provided a more
appropriate reward and retention mechanism.
The hurdles motivate executives with a clear line of sight to strategic outcomes outcome through the performance hurdle
measurements.
When expectations are met, and all other things being equal, the LTIP is intended to vest and deliver the appropriate level
of remuneration and market positioning.
In total, the Company granted 3,301,887 performance rights to the Managing Director for FY21 which was approved by
shareholders at the Company Annual General Meeting in October 2020.
The structure and details of LTIP Performance Rights issued to executives in FY21 and proposed for FY22 under the plan
are summarised in the following table:
Long Term Equity Incentive Plan (LTIP)
Aspect
Purpose
Participation
Plan, Offers and Comments
The LTIP’s purpose is to align executive interests with those of shareholders by linking
reward to sustainable value creation for shareholders and to assist in the attraction and
retention of a stable focused Managing Director and leadership team.
Grants are made to those executives and key employees that are able to influence the
generation of shareholders’ wealth and thus have a direct impact on the Company’s
performance against the relevant long-term performance hurdle. NEDs are not eligible to
participate in the LTIP.
Nature
Each LTIP Performance Right entitles the participant to one share in the Company upon
vesting.
Grant Frequency
Annual grant and ad-hoc on commencement of employment and future potential grants.
Delivery
Value / Number
Key Performance
indicators, weightings
and performance goals
LTI’s are delivered under the Company’s Employee Incentive Plan (EIP). The EIP enables
the Company to offer Executive Directors and key employees (Eligible Participants) a range
of different employee incentive scheme (ESS) interests with the aim of attracting, motivating
and retaining key management. These ESS interests or awards include options,
performance rights, service rights, deferred shares, exempt shares, cash rights and stock
appreciation rights.
Awards under the LTI plan are made in the form of Performance Rights which provide, when
vested, one share at nil cost (provided the specified performance hurdle is met). No
dividends are paid on unvested LTI awards. A new share will be issued for each vested
Performance Right. The number of Performance Rights allocated for each Eligible
Participant is calculated by reference to their maximum LTI opportunity value.
Allocations are made based on a face value approach using the Volume Weighted Average
Price of Spectur’s shares over a specified period prior to the award date. This fixes the
maximum number of shares / rights and the actual number will vest in accordance with the
performance conditions which are set.
The hurdles and relative weightings applying to LTI grants issued in the respective
periods are as follows:
FY21
➢ 75% EPS in FY2022 (tested at the end of the 2-year period).
➢ 25% Share price growth over a 2-year period ‘Total Shareholder Return’ (TSR)
tested at the end of FY2022

FY22
➢ 50% Full Year FY2023 Revenue (tested at the end of FY23).
➢ 50% Full Year FY2023 EBITDA (tested at the end of FY23).
If cessation of employment occurs, the following treatment will apply in respect of unvested
rights:
•
•
If the participant ceases employment with Spectur on resignation or on termination
for cause, unvested Performance Rights will normally be forfeited.
If the participant ceases employment in other circumstances (for example, due to
illness, total or permanent disablement, retirement, redundancy, end of contract
or other circumstances determined by the Board), unvested rights will stay ‘on
foot’ and may vest at the end of the original performance period to the extent
performance conditions are met.
The Board may determine in its discretion that the number of rights available to vest will be
reduced pro-rata for time at the date employment ceases.
The Board will retain discretion to allow for accelerated vesting (pro-rated for performance
and/or time) in special circumstances (as opposed to allowing unvested rights to remain ‘on
foot’ on cessation of employment).
Unless the Board determines otherwise, a pro-rata number of the participant’s unvested
rights will vest based on the proportion of the performance period that has passed at the
time of the change of control.
Vesting may also be subject to the achievement of pro-rata performance conditions at the
time of the change of control.

G. Non-Executive Director Remuneration During the Reporting Period
Remuneration Policy
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of Non-Executive Director (NED) and executive
remuneration is separate and distinct.
The overall level of annual NED fees was approved by shareholders in accordance with the requirements of the Company’s
Constitution and the Corporations Act. The maximum aggregate pool of Directors’ fees payable to all of the Company’s
NEDs is $250,000 per annum. This aggregate amount was approved by shareholders at the 2017 Annual General Meeting.
Equity Compensation
In accordance with Australian practice the Company’s policy was not to grant any incentive equity-based compensation to
NEDs. This policy was revised in FY22 following a change in circumstances related to COVID-19 impacting the business:
•
•
•
•
•
NED’s took a 20% salary reduction during Q4 FY20 and Q1FY21 (a total of approx. 6 months), and revised to a
10% reduction for Q2FY21 in alignment with Company policy implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic to limit
overhead expenses.
NED’s were paid via shares in lieu of remaining salary for Q4FY20, escrowed for 12 months.
NED fees have remained static (for Bilyana Smith through FY20, 21 and now FY22), Darren Cooper FY19-22.
In the interests of cash preservation for the Company, and retaining the talent pool of directors, 500,000 unquoted
options were awarded to each of the NED’s (July 2021) as a reward for their commitment and retention.
The options have no vesting conditions, expire 30 June 2024, and will be exercisable at a 42% premium to
Spectur’s share price at the time of grant, and are subject to approval by shareholders at Spectur’s 2021 AGM.
An expense of $73,938 was recognised in FY21 in relation to these.
Accordingly, no other equity incentives were offered to NEDs in the reporting period to 30 June 2021. Shares were issued
to Darren Cooper and Bilyana Smith during the year in lieu of their reduced Board fees for Q4FY20. These were approved
by Spectur shareholders at the 2020 Annual General Meeting.
Remuneration Structure
NEDs receive a fixed remuneration of base fees, presently set at $40,000 per annum plus statutory superannuation. These
fees cover the board activities and membership of any relevant committees. In addition to these fees, NEDs are entitled to
reimbursement of reasonable travel, accommodation and other expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board,
committee or shareholder meetings whilst engaged by Spectur. NEDs do not earn retirement benefits other than
superannuation and are not entitled to any compensation on termination of their directorships.
All NED fees remain unchanged until further notice and pending review of market conditions and Company performance.
The current Board fee structure which includes committee fees for NEDs is as per the table below:
NED Fees
Chair
$75,000
Member
$40,000
NEDs remuneration is not linked to the performance of the Company; however, to align directors’ interests with shareholder
interests, the directors may hold shares in the Company as governed by the Company’s Securities Trading Policy.

Spectur Limited – Annual Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2021
Page 27 of 66
Note 1: Basis of Preparation
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations and comply with other requirements
of the law.
For the purposes of preparing the financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.
The accounting policies detailed below have been consistently applied to all the years presented unless otherwise stated.
The financial statements for Spectur Limited (Spectur) or (Company). Spectur Limited holds a 51% interest in Spectur
New Zealand Ltd. The investment in Spectur NZ is accounted for using the equity method in accordance with AASB 128.
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. Historical cost is based on the fair values of the
consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars.
Spectur is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), is a public company, incorporated and operating in Australia.
The entity’s principal activities are detailed in the Directors’ Report.
(a)
Statement of compliance
The financial report was authorised for issue on 30 August 2021.
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International
Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial
statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
(b)
Adoption of New and Revised Standards
New Standards and Interpretations applicable for the year ended 30 June 2021
For the year ended 30 June 2021, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations
issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current reporting period. As a result of this
review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations
on the Company, and therefore no change is necessary to accounting policies.
New Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
The Directors have also reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted for the
year ended 30 June 2021. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the
Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the Company and, therefore, no change is necessary to
accounting policies.
(c)
Going Concern
The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business
activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
(d)
Foreign currency translation
The functional and presentation currency of Spectur Limited is Australian dollars.
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at
the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate
of exchange ruling at the balance date.
All exchange differences in the financial report are taken to profit or loss with the exception of differences on foreign
currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken directly to equity
until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognised in profit or loss.
Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those borrowings are also recognised in equity.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange
rate as at the date of the initial transaction.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when
the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of
the fair value gain or loss.

Note 1: Basis of Preparation
(e)
Investment in associates and joint ventures
Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The carrying amount of the
investment in associates and joint ventures is increased or decreased to recognise the Company’s share of the profit or
loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and joint venture, adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency
with the accounting policies of the Company.
Unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the Company and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to
the extent of the Company’s interest in those entities. Where unrealised losses are eliminated, the underlying asset is also
tested for impairment.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Revenue recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company, is expected to be entitled in
exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer.
For each contract with a customer, the Company:
•
•
•
•
•
identifies the contract with a customer.
identifies the performance obligations in the contract.
determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value
of money.
allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations based on the relative stand-alone selling
price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and
recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to
the customer of the goods or services promised.
Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer such as discounts,
rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other contingent events. Such estimates
are determined using either the 'expected value' or 'most likely amount' method. The measurement of variable
consideration is subject to a constraining principle whereby revenue will only be recognised to the extent that it is highly
probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The measurement
constraint continues until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Amounts
received that are subject to the constraining principle are recognised as a refund liability.
Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the goods, which
is generally at the time of delivery.
Rendering of service
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised over time as the services are rendered based on either a fixed
price or an hourly rate.
Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
(b)
Other Income and Expenses
Dividends
Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established. This applies even if they are paid
out of pre-acquisition profits. However, the investment may need to be tested for impairment as a consequence.
Interest income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company
and the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the
principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future
cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that assets’ net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are capitalised that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying
assets where the borrowing cost is added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready
for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying
assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Spectur Limited – Annual Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2021
Page 30 of 66
Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
(c)
Income Tax Expenses
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the
applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to
temporary difference and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated based on the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the
reporting period in the countries where the Company operates and generates 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.
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered
from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted
or substantively enacted by the balance date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:
when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a
business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;
or when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint
ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary
difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets
and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible
temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
• when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition
of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects
neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
• when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in
joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary
difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary
difference can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is
no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be
utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it
has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the
asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted
at the balance date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same
taxation authority.
Other taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
• when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which
case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable;
and
receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
•
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables
in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from
investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating
cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation
authority.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
(d)
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating
Decision Maker. The Chief Operating Decision Maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing
performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Managing Director of Spectur Limited.
(e)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings as current liabilities in the statement of financial position. For the purposes
of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of
outstanding bank overdrafts.
(f)
Trade and Other Receivables
Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement
within periods ranging from 30 days to 60 days.
Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by
reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Company
will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Company
in making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and
significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Company. The impairment allowance is set equal to the
difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted
at the original effective interest rate. Where receivables are short-term, discounting is not applied in determining the
allowance.
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within
other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible
in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written
off are credited against other expenses in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
(g)
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition is accounted for as follows:
• Raw materials – purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis; and
•
Finished goods and work-in-progress – cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing
overheads based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
(h)
Property, plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost
includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred.
Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and
equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation.
Depreciation is calculated on diminishing value basis using the following rates:
Motor vehicle
Plant equipment
Office equipment
Camera equipment
25%
10% to 50%
10% to 50%
33.33%
The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each
financial year end.

Property, plant and equipment (continued)
(h)
Impairment
The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date, with recoverable amount
being estimated when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The
recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value
in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not
generate largely independent cash inflows, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the
asset belongs, unless the asset's value in use can be estimated to approximate fair value. An impairment exists when the
carrying value of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount. For plant and equipment, impairment
losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the cost of sales line item. However, because land and
buildings are measured at revalued amounts, impairment losses on land and buildings are treated as a revaluation
decrement.
Derecognition and disposal
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are
expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference
between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset
is derecognised.
(i)
Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets acquired separately are recorded at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is
charged on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method is
reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with any changes in these accounting estimates being accounted for
on a prospective basis.
Internally generated intangible assets – research and development expenditure
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Where no internally
generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period as
incurred.
An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and
only if, all of the following have been demonstrated:
•
•
•
• How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
•
The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete development and to use or sell the
intangible asset; and
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
•
The amount initially recognised for internally generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the
date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Subsequent to initial recognition, internally
generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on
the same basis as intangible assets acquired separately.
The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortisation:
Patents
Trademarks
Other Intangibles
Product development
8 years following grant of patent
10 years following grant of trademark
3 years following acquisition
3 to 5 years following commercial use
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than Other Intangibles
The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company makes an estimate of the asset’s
recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and
is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those
from other assets or group of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
(j)
Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which
comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the
commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in
the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset,
and restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful
life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the Company expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end
of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted
for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
The Company has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term
leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to
profit or loss as incurred.
(k)
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided
to the Company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Company becomes obliged to
make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. Trade and other payables are presented
as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months.
(l)
Employee benefits
Liabilities accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave and sick leave expected
to be settled within 12 months of the balance date are recognised in employee benefits in respect of employees’ services
up to the balance date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities
for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable.
Liabilities accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave and sick leave not
expected to be settled within 12 months of the balance date are recognised in non-current employee benefits in respect
of employees’ services up to the balance date. They are measured as the present value of the estimated future outflows
to be made by the Company.
The liability for long service leave is recognised in employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected
future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the balance date. Consideration is given
to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures, and period of service. Expected future
payments are discounted using market yields at the balance date on national government bonds with terms to maturity
and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
(m)
Contract liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received
consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the
Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the
payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under
the contract.
(n)
Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present
value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease
or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed
payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts
expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option
is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend
on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Spectur Limited – Annual Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2021
Page 34 of 66
Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured
if there is a change in the following:
•
•
•
•
•
future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used.
residual guarantee.
lease term.
certainty of a purchase option and
termination penalties.
When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if
the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.
(o)
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it
is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable
estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the
reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense
relating to any provision is presented in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income net of any
reimbursement.
Provisions are measured at the present value or management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligation at the end of the reporting period. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are
discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase
in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as an interest expense.
Onerous contracts
Present obligations arising under onerous contracts are recognised and measured as provisions. An onerous contract is
considered to exist where the Company has a contract under which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under
the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the contract.
Warranties
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations under local sale of goods legislation are recognised at the date of
sale of the relevant products, at the Directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Company’s obligation.
(p)
Share-based payment transactions
Equity settled transactions
The Company provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Company in the form of share-based
payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions).
The Company has an Employee Incentive Plan (EIP) in place, which provides benefits to Directors, senior executives and
employees and is governed by the EIP Rules.
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity
instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by internal valuation using a binomial /
trinomial valuation model where appropriate.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to
the price of the shares of Company (market conditions) if applicable.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in
which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become
fully entitled to the award (the vesting period).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each balance date until vesting date reflects
(a)
(b)
the extent to which the vesting period has expired; and
(the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest.
No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is
included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The statement of comprehensive income charge or credit for a
period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon
a market condition.
Spectur Limited – Annual Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2021
Page 35 of 66
Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
(p)
Equity settled transactions (Continued)
Share-based payment transactions (continued)
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been
modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based
payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet
recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and
designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were
a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per
share.
Cash settled transactions:
The Company also provides benefits to employees in the form of cash-settled share-based payments, whereby employees
render services in exchange for cash, the amounts of which are determined by reference to movements in the price of the
shares of Company.
The cost of cash-settled transactions is measured initially at fair value at the grant date using the volume weighted average
traded share price for the equity granted taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were
granted. This fair value is expensed over the period until vesting with recognition of a corresponding liability. The liability
is remeasured to fair value at each balance date up to and including the settlement date with changes in fair value
recognised in profit or loss.
(q)
Issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are
shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new
shares or options for the acquisition of a new business are not included in the cost of acquisition as part of the purchase
consideration.
(r)
Dividends
Dividends are recognised when declared during the financial year and no longer at the discretion of the Company.
(s)
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings/(loss) per share is calculated as net profit/(loss) attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude
any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted earnings/(loss) per share is calculated as net profit/(loss) attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:
•
•
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends;
the after-tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been
recognised as expenses; and
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of
potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary
shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

Note 3: Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based
on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in
which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision
affects both current and future periods.
(a) Revenue from contracts with customers involving sale of goods
When recognising revenue in relation to the sale of goods to customers, the key performance obligation of the Company
is considered to be the point of delivery of the goods to the customer, as this is deemed to be the time that the customer
obtains control of the promised goods and therefore the benefits of unimpeded access.
(b)
Inventories
Management estimates the net realisable values of inventories, taking into account the most reliable evidence available at
each reporting date. The future realisation of these inventories may be affected by future technology or other market-driven
changes that may reduce future selling prices.
(c) Useful lives of depreciable assets
Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date, based on the expected
utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical obsolescence that may change the utility of certain
software and IT equipment.
(d)
Impairment
In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash-generating unit based on
expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about
future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate.
(e) Share based payment transactions
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity
instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using a binomial or trinomial model where
appropriate.
The Company measures the cost of cash-settled share-based payments at fair value at the grant date using the volume
weighted average traded share price for the equity granted taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the
instruments were granted.
(f) Recovery of deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences as management considers that it is probable that
sufficient future tax profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences. Significant management judgement is
required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level
of future taxable profits.
(g) Allowance for expected credit losses
The allowance for expected credit losses assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. It is based on the
lifetime expected credit loss, grouped based on days overdue, and makes assumptions to allocate an overall expected
credit loss rate for each group. These assumptions include recent sales experience, historical collection rates, the impact
of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and forward-looking information that is available. The allowance for expected
credit losses, as disclosed in note 12, is calculated based on the information available at the time of preparation. The actual
credit losses in future years may be higher or lower.
(h) Lease term
The lease term is a significant component in the measurement of both the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Judgement
is exercised in determining whether there is reasonable certainty that an option to extend the lease or purchase the
underlying asset will be exercised, or an option to terminate the lease will not be exercised, when ascertaining the periods
to be included in the lease term. In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economical
incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option, are considered at the lease
commencement date. Factors considered may include the importance of the asset to the Company's operations;
comparison of terms and conditions to prevailing market rates; incurrence of significant penalties; existence of significant
Spectur Limited – Annual Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2021
Page 37 of 66
Note 3: Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgements
leasehold improvements; and the costs and disruption to replace the asset. The Company reassesses whether it is
reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option, if there is a significant event or
significant change in circumstances.
Incremental borrowing rate
(i)
Where the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated to
discount future lease payments to measure the present value of the lease liability at the lease commencement date. Such
a rate is based on what the Company estimates it would have to pay a third party to borrow the funds necessary to obtain
an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security and economic environment.
Long service leave
(j)
The liability for long service leave expected to be settled more than 12 months from the reporting date are recognised and
measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows to be made in respect of all employees at the reporting
date. In determining the present value of the liability, estimates of attrition rates and pay increases through promotion and
inflation have been taken into account.
(k) Lease make good provision
A provision has been made for the present value of anticipated costs for future restoration of leased premises. The provision
includes future cost estimates associated with closure of the premises. The calculation of this provision requires
assumptions such as application of closure dates and cost estimates. The provision recognised for each site is periodically
reviewed and updated based on the facts and circumstances available at the time. Changes to the estimated future costs
for sites are recognised in the statement of financial position by adjusting the asset and the provision. Reductions in the
provision that exceed the carrying amount of the asset will be recognised in profit or loss.
(l) Warranty provision
In determining the level of provision required for warranties the Company has made judgements in respect of the expected
performance of the products, the number of customers who will actually claim under the warranty and how often, and the
costs of fulfilling the conditions of the warranty. The provision is based on estimates made from historical warranty data
associated with similar products and services.
(m) Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may
have, on the Company based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services
offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the Company operates. Other than as addressed
in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any
significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the Company unfavourably as at the
reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Expected credit losses
The Company applies the AASB 9 simplified model of recognising lifetime expected credit losses for all trade receivables
as these items do not have a significant financing component. In measuring the expected credit losses, the trade receivables
have been assessed on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics. They have been grouped based
on the days past due.
The expected loss rates are based on the payment profile for sales over the past 24 months before 30 June 2021 and 30
June 2020 respectively as well as the corresponding historical credit losses during that period. Trade receivables are
written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Failure to make payments within 180 days from the invoice
date and failure to engage with the Company on alternative payment arrangement amongst other is considered indicators
of no reasonable expectation of recovery. On the above basis the expected credit loss for trade receivables at 30 June 2021
and 30 June 2020 was determined as follows:
30 June 2021
Current (not
past due)

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition is accounted for as follows:
• Raw materials – purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis; and
• Work in progress – purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis; and
•
Finished goods – cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal
operating capacity.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and
the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets acquired separately are recorded at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is
charged on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method is
reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with any changes in these accounting estimates being accounted for
on a prospective basis.
Patents
Patents that have lapsed or are forfeited and are not rolled into new patents, have been impaired and moved to an expense
in the year the patents lapsed/expired.
Internally generated intangible assets – research and development expenditure
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Where no internally
generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period as
incurred.
Spectur Limited – Annual Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2021
Page 48 of 66
Other Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 16: Intangibles (continued)
An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and
only if, all of the following have been demonstrated:
•
•
•
•
•
•
The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete development and to use or sell the
intangible asset; and
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
The amount initially recognised for internally generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the
date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above.
Subsequent to initial recognition, internally generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation
and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets acquired separately.
The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortisation:
Patents
Product development
Other Intangibles
8 Years
3 to 5 Years
3 Years
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than Other Intangibles
The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company makes an estimate of the asset’s
recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and
is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those
from other assets or group of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such
cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount
of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired
and is written down to its recoverable amount.
Other Intangibles
Other Intangibles acquired are initially measured at cost.
Following initial recognition, Other Intangibles are measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment losses.
Other Intangibles are reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying value may be impaired.
Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (Group of cash-generating units),
to which the Other Intangibles relates. When the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (Group of cash-generating
units) is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. When Other Intangibles forms part of a cash-
generating unit (Group of cash-generating units) and an operation within that unit is disposed of, the Other Intangibles
associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or
loss on disposal of the operation. Other Intangibles disposed of in this manner is measured based on the relative values of
the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.
Impairment losses recognised for Other Intangibles are not subsequently reversed.

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it
is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable
estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the
reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating
to any provision is presented in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.
Provisions are measured at the present value or management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligation at the end of the reporting period.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the
risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised
as an interest expense.
Warranties
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations under local sale of goods legislation are recognised at the date of
sale of the relevant products, at the Directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Company’s obligation.
Equipment Rental Costs
The provision for equipment rental costs relates to the estimated cost of work to be carried out in relation to the removal
and refurbishment of rental equipment at the end of the rental agreement term. The provision represents the best estimate
of the present value of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. Future costs are reviewed
annually and any changes in the estimate are reflected in the present value of the equipment rental provision at each
reporting date.

Note 24: Financial Instruments
Capital risk management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can
provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure and reduce
the cost of capital.
The capital structure of the Company consists of cash and cash equivalents, borrowings and equity attributable to equity
holders of the Company, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings. Operating cash flows are used to
maintain and expand operations, as well as to make routine expenditures such as tax, dividends and general administrative
outgoings. The Company would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as
value adding relative to the current Company's share price at the time of the investment.
The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2020 Annual Report.
Financial risk management objectives
The Company is exposed to:
(i) market risk (which includes foreign currency exchange risk, interest rate risk, share price risk and commodity price risk),
(ii) credit risk and
(iii) liquidity risk.
Compliance with policies and exposure limits is reviewed by management on a continuous basis. The Company does not
enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments.
Market risk
The Company’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest
rates, and share prices. There has been no change to the Company’s exposure to market risks or the way it manages and
measures the risk from the previous period.
Foreign currency exchange risk management
The Company undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies, hence exposures to exchange rate
fluctuations arise. Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters utilising purchasing limits.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the
balance date expressed in Australian dollars were nil.

Other Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 24: Financial Instruments(continued)
Foreign currency sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below detail the Company’s sensitivity to an increase/decrease in the Australian dollar against the
United States dollar. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items.
A 100-basis point is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to management and represents
management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. At balance date, if foreign exchange rates had
been 10 basis point higher or lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s:
•
•
The Company’s sensitivity to foreign exchange has not changed significantly from the prior year.
Profit or loss would increase/decrease by $nil (2020: $nil); and
Equity reserves would increase/decrease by $nil (2020: $nil).
Interest rate risk management
The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the bank overdrafts with floating
interest rate.
These financial assets with variable rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. All other financial assets and
liabilities, in the form of receivables and payables are non-interest bearing.
A 10-basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to management and represents
management’s assessment of the change in interest rates.
At balance date, if interest rates had been 10 basis points higher or lower and all other variables were held constant, the
Company’s:
•
•
The Company’s sensitivity to interest rate risk has decreased during the year mainly due to the reduction in cash invested
in term deposits.
Profit or loss would increase/decrease by $nil (2020: $1,014); and
Equity reserves would increase/decrease by $nil (2020: $1,014).
Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty fails to discharge an obligation to the Company. The Company is exposed to credit
risk from financial assets including cash and cash equivalents held at banks and trade and other receivables. The Company
only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is supplied by
independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the Company uses publicly available financial information
and its own trading record to rate its major customers.
The Company does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Company of
counterparties having similar characteristics.
Liquidity risk management
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Board's
approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that the Company will always have sufficient liquidity to meet
its liabilities when due by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of
financial assets and liabilities.
Non-derivative financial liabilities
The following tables detail the Company’s expected contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities.
These have been drawn up based on undiscounted contractual maturities of the financial liabilities based on the earliest date
the Company can be required to repay.
The tables include both interest and principal cash flows.

The net fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities approximates their carrying value. The methods for estimating
fair value are outlined in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
The Company has several financial instruments which are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position.
The Directors consider that the carrying amounts of current receivables, current payables and current borrowings are a
reasonable approximation of their fair values.
Note 25: Contingent liabilities
The Company had no contingent liabilities as at the reporting date.
Note 26: Share-based payments
a) Recognised Share-based Payment Expense
From time to time, the Company provides Incentive Options or Performance Rights to officers, employees, consultants and
other key advisors as part of remuneration and incentive arrangements. The number of options / Performance Rights
granted and the terms of the options granted are determined by the Board. Shareholder approval is sought where required.
During the past two years, the following equity-settled share-based payments have been recognised:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the members of Spectur Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Spectur Limited (“the Company”) which comprises the
statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the
year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant
accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Company is in accordance with the
Corporations Act 2001, including:
a) giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 30 June 2021 and of its
financial performance for the year then ended; and
b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities
under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the
auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of
the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in
Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance
in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context
of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not
provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below
to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
Page 60 of 66
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed the key audit
matter
Revenue and related risk of fraud
Refer to Note 5
The total revenue from operations for the year is
$5,248,882, with revenue being predominately
generated through equipment sales, rentals and
related services.
Due to the material nature of this balance and the
presumption of fraud risk over revenue recognition, as
prescribed by Australian Auditing Standards, this area
has been subject to significant audit procedures.
Our procedures included but were not limited
to the following:
• We reviewed the Company’s accounting
policy regarding the recognition and/or
deferral of revenue in line with AASB 15
Revenue from Contracts with Customers;
• We reviewed the calculation of deferred
revenue to ensure that it is correctly
calculated and in accordance with AASB
15;
• We selected a sample of revenue
transactions and agreed the transactions
to underlying supporting documentation;
• We performed audit procedures to
ensure that revenue is materially
complete, including procedures
surrounding cut-off at balance date; and
• We assessed the adequacy of the
Company’s disclosures in respect of
revenue and deferred revenue.
Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Company’s annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but
does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives
a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act
2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation
of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the
Company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to
liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
Page 61 of 66
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a
material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional
judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.
-
-
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw
attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such
disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit
evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions
may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing
of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control
that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter
should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
