Directors’ Report

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

Principal activities

TALi [TALi Digital Limited (ASX: TD1)] is a digital health 
company delivering diagnostic and therapeutic 
solutions to improve cognitive function and behaviour. 
The Company has built a platform technology, the first 
iteration of which targets cognitive attention skills during 
early childhood through its breakthrough evidence a 
video-gamed-based TALi screening (‘DETECT’) and 
training (‘TRAIN’). This first to market and user experience 
focused technology is complementary to existing 
diagnosis and therapy placing TALi at the forefront of 
patient experience and early intervention thus positioning 
the business as an ideal partner in the global digital 
health sector. Innovations that target cognitive skills to 
deliver non-invasive early interventions underpin the TALi 
platform technology. This innovation focus is allowing the 
Company to deliver a series of product developments in 
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and ASD 
(Autism Spectrum Disorder) for predictive diagnosis and 
treatment for all age groups. TALi solutions aim to deliver 
foundational advances in human cognitive function and 
behaviour only dreamt of a few short years ago. 

TALi is incorporated and domiciled in Australia, and 
with a registered office and principal place of business 
located at Suite 201, 697 Burke Road, Camberwell Vic 
3121. Except as disclosed elsewhere in this Report, there 
have been no significant changes in the nature of these 
activities during the year.

Operating and financial review

Leaning of the business structure and focussed direction

Following the departure of the CEO/Managing Director 
in March, a full strategic and operational review was 
initiated by the Board. During this review, the Board 
appointed Dr Mary Beth Brinson, a recent appointment 
as Chief Medical Officer, as the new Chief Executive 
Officer. The outcome of the operational review revealed 
the business suffered from a lack of marketing focus 
following the pivot from EdTech to MedTech and a cost 
base and structure that did not reflect TALi’s stage of 
development. As a result of this review the headcount 
was reduced by 60%, leaving a very lean team with 
additional skills and expertise added in key areas. 
Additionally, the review produced a focus on three 
priorities for FY 2023: 1. Product renewal, 2. Executing 
on the digital medical device plan for the business in 
Australia and 3. Strengthening the relationship with Akili 
in readiness for US market launch.

1. Product renewal

TALi DETECT® and TRAIN® were produced as products 
for clinical trials, which were concluded successfully 
demonstrating the safety and efficacy for training 

attention. In the years since soft launch and attempts at 
commercialisation, feedback has been gathered from 
professionals and parents about usability of the tools. 
The pandemic and lock downs clearly had an impact 
on this commercialisation roll out with closure of schools 
and a pivot to medical device marketing was restricted 
given health care professionals were concentrating on 
the pandemic response and had little capacity to deploy 
new tools in the space.

TALi will be incorporating that feedback to deliver an 
improved experience for the parent and the health care 
providers with the launch of a new product in FY 2023. 
This new TALi product represents the latest in digital 
therapeutics and incorporates unique features delivering 
new capabilities. The launch in Australia will initially 
focus on health care providers with a focus/emphasis 
on key allied health professional groups (Occupational 
Therapists and Psychologists), in FY 2023 and represents 
an exciting opportunity to address a significant unmet 
need with neurodiverse children. 

TALi products today focus on identified children that 
would benefit from attention training. In the future, the 
plan is to expand the product offering to focus on specific 
claims in the areas of ADHD and Autism Specturm 
Disorder.

2. Australian Business

TALi is a proudly Australian company and are pleased 
to deliver on a business plan in FY 2023 that allows 
the families of Australia to benefit from the TALi digital 
therapy. The new product launch will initially focus on 
the Australian market. This market is well understood 
with independent research confirming the significant 
opportunities that exist. Successfully executing in Australia 
will build revenues as well as help inform our expansion 
efforts into similar markets. A successful digital healthcare 
model executed in Australia can then be easily scaled to 
other countries. 

3. USA Business

The USA market is critical for any significant medical 
device company and the strategic relationship with 
Akili is key to achieving key product approval and 
commercialisation milestones.

On 18 August 2021, TALi announced it had entered into 
a Strategic Licensing Agreement (Agreement) with Akili 
Interactive Labs, Inc. (Akili), a global leader in the digital 
therapeutics space. Under the Agreement, our Company 
will receive total milestone payments of up A$51M 
(US$37.5M) as well as royalties on future sales after 

TALi Digital Limited Annual Report 2022     |  5

Directors’ Report

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

FDA approval is received. Akili now holds an ongoing 
licence for TALi’s market leading technology to become 
the exclusive commercialisation partner for all paediatric 
cognition products in the US.

This agreement is a major vote of confidence in TALi by 
a larger American-based corporation. Akili is assuming 
a portion of the costs of the trials required for the FDA 
approval as well as the milestone and royalty payments. 
TALi have already received payments from Akili for 
clinical development activities which commenced in 
FY22.

The agreement with a global leader in digital 
therapeutics provides the support needed for TALi to 
access the US market and revenues 5-10 years earlier 
than we could have done on our own. Once the trials 
are completed and the FDA approval is gained, the TALi 
product will be able to access the prescription digital 
medical device pathway that Akili has been building, 
utilising the Akili organisation in the USA.

TALi’s products complement Akili’s product portfolio 
by providing access to children 3-8 years of age. With 
hindsight, the initial estimates provided for milestone 
payments agreed with Akili did not accurately reflect the 
challenges of delivering this clinical program during a 
pandemic and was overly optimistic. This was identified 
as part of the strategic review and in light of continued 
challenges with the pandemic and parents’ willingness 
to expose children to high-risk environments. A more 
accurate timeline is being evaluated with the joint teams 
working on a potential change in clinical trial designs 
for the final registration process. On approval a USD$2M 
milestone is payable to TALi.

Once approved, TALi’s technology platform has the 
potential to lead to a multi-decade annuity revenue 
stream in the US market. First sale and subsequent 
revenue milestones will be paid from Akili to TALi on 
revenues up to US$150M. Royalty payments will be 
paid on all sales of the TALi product in the US market in 
addition to milestone payments.

The first face-to-face meeting with Akili was held in July in 
the USA at the Akili headquarters in Boston. Akili and TALi 
executives had a productive discussion on the companies’ 
work together to introduce innovative new treatment 
options for young children living with ADHD.

We are excited to continue this relationship and look 
forward to sharing more soon on our work together.

Coleman and Company Ltd. (The Times Group), to 
facilitate TALi’s entry and growth in the Indian market. 
This agreement supported a ‘direct-to-parent’ business 
model which is a customer much further down the funnel 
than the allied health professional. The funding provides 
advertising and lead optimisation for this consumer 
group.

Since TALi DETECT® and TRAIN® were made available 
via the iOS and Android app stores, there have been 
more than 5 million article and website views and more 
than 75,000 app downloads. However, these did not 
result in significant sales. The feedback from the market 
indicates that the current product journey which is made 
for a medical professional-led model is not the right 
model for parents who are not supported by the medical 
channel. Pleasingly, the feedback on the games has 
been extremely positive. 

A face-to-face meeting with Brand Capital was held in 
the USA in July. The special requirements for the Indian 
market were discussed. The current plan is to maintain 
our current presence in India and continue to derive 
information from this important direct-to-consumer 
market. As stated, our priorities for FY2023 will be the 
Australian market and the US market through Akili, which 
are direct to provider medical models.

Research partnerships

The growth pipeline for TALi includes additional 
indications and populations, which requires a strong 
research partnership. TALi recently signed a 5-year 
MOU with Macquarie University which has a strong 
cognitive science department as well as a focus on 
cross-disciplinary research. This ability to bring several 
departments in the University to solve cognitive issues 
will give TALi a great advantage as we seek to expand 
into other diagnoses, acquired brain issues and adult 
populations.

Outlook

In FY23, TALi will be focussed on delivery of agreed 
and articulated milestones to provide confidence to 
our shareholders and the market that we are on the 
right trajectory. These milestones will include revenue 
projections, progress on the plans with Akili in the USA 
and plans for expansion. To achieve these milestones the 
Group is dependent upon securing additional funds by 
raising capital from equity markets.

Financial review

India market lessons

In December 2020, TALi announced that it had signed 
an investment and advertising agreement with Brand 
Capital International (BCI), the strategic arm of Bennett, 

The statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income shows a loss of $6,936,129 (2021: $4,858,273) 
for the year. As at 30 June 2022 the Group had a cash 
position of $1,845,128 (2021: $2,726,518). Operating,

financing and investing activities incurred a net cash outflow for the year of $882,709 (2021: $1,202,457).

The Company continues to pursue non-dilutive funding including government funded incentive programs such as 
the R&D Tax Incentive (RDTI) and the Export Market Development Grant (EMDG). At 30 June 2022 the Company has 
a receivable for the estimated RDTI refund for the year ended 30 June 2022 of $509,506 and during the year the 
Company received an EMDG of $113,032 (2021: $100,000).

During the year the Company executed a funding facility (Facility) with Treasury Corporation of Victoria (TCV) as part of 
the Victorian Government’s R&D Cash Flow Loan Initiative (Initiative) of $503,744. The loan is repayable by 31 October 
2023, aligned to the expected receipt of the FY23 R&D tax incentive. In March 2022, TALi received strong support from 
new and existing shareholders raising $3.22 million (before costs).

Capital and corporate structure

On 10 March 2022 the Company announced a Placement to raise $1.54m before costs and a proposed issuance of 
options to Placement participants and to the Sole Lead Manager. The Placement comprised of 139,785,868 fully paid

On 18 March the Company announced a 1 for 7 non-renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer of fully paid ordinary

at a price of $0.011.

Directors’ Report

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

Dividends

The directors do not recommend a dividend be paid or 
declared by the Company for the year. No dividend has 
been paid by the Company since its incorporation on 7 
April 2004.

Significant changes in the state of affairs

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

Environmental regulation

The Group’s operations are not subject to any significant 
environmental regulations under either Commonwealth 
or State legislation. The directors believe that the Group 
has adequate systems in place for the management of 
its environmental requirements and are not aware of 
any breach of those environmental requirements as they 
apply to the Group.

Events subsequent to reporting date

On 5 July 2022, 7,838,858 Ordinary shares were issued 
to the Directors as approved by Shareholders at the 
Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) held on 28 June 
2022.

On 4 August 2022, 15,000,000 options were issued to the 
Company’s broker after approval from the extraordinary 
General Meeting held on 28 June 2022.

On 19 September 2022, the Company received a 
successful ruling from AusIndustry to its Advanced 
Overseas Finding in relation to clinical trial activity in the 
United States. The Company will subsequently record 
a further $171,583 of Research and Development tax 
incentive income in relation to expenditure incurred in the 
year ended 30 June 2022.

Indemnification and insurance of officers

Indemnification

The Company has agreed to indemnify the directors 
of the Company against liability arising as a result of 
a director acting as a director or other officer of the 
Company. The indemnity includes a right to require the 
Company to maintain Directors’ and Officers’ Liability 
insurance that extends to former directors. The indemnity 
provided by the Company is an unlimited and continuing 
indemnity irrespective of whether a director ceases to 
hold any position in the Company.

Insurance Premiums

Since the end of the financial year, the Company has 
paid a premium for Directors’ and Officers’ Liability 

insurance for current and former directors and officers, 
including executive officers of the Company. The directors 
have not contributed to the payment of the policy 
premium.

The Directors’ and Officers’ Liability insurance policy 
covers the directors and officers of the Company 
against loss arising from any claims made against them 
during the period of insurance (including company 
reimbursement) by reason of any wrongful act committed 
or alleged to have been committed by them in their 
capacity as directors or officers of the Company and 
reported to the insurers during the policy period or if 
exercised, the extended reporting period.

Risk management

The Group takes a proactive approach to risk 
management. The Board is responsible for ensuring that 
risks, and also opportunities, are identified on a timely 
basis and that the Group’s objectives and activities are 
aligned with the risks and opportunities identified by the 
Board. The Group believes that it is crucial for all Board 
members to be a part of this process, and as such the 
Board has not established a separate risk management 
committee. Instead sub-committees are convened as 
appropriate in response to issues and risks identified by 
the Board as a whole, and each respective subcommittee 
further examines the issue and reports back to the Board.

The Board has a number of mechanisms in place to 
ensure that management’s objectives and activities are 
aligned with the risks identified by the Board. These 
include the following:

•   Implementation of Board approved strategic and 

operating plans and budgets and Board monitoring 
of progress against these plans, budgets, including 
the establishment and monitoring of KPIs of both a 
financial and non-financial nature.

•   The establishment of committees to report on 

specific business risks.

The Audit Committee assists in discharging the Board’s 
responsibility to manage the organisation’s risks, and 
monitors Management’s actions to ensure they are in line 
with Group policy.

Rounding off

The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations 
(Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Report) Instrument 
2016/191 issued by the Australian Securities and 
Investments Commission (ASIC), relating to the rounding 
off of amounts in the consolidated financial statements. 
Amounts in the consolidated financial statements have 

TALi Digital Limited Annual Report 2022     |  11

Directors’ Report

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

been rounded off in accordance with that legislative 
instrument to the nearest dollar, unless specifically stated 
to be otherwise.

Lead Auditor’s Independence Declaration under Section 
307C of the Corporations Act 2001

The lead auditor’s independence declaration forms part 
of the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2022 
and is set out after the Directors’ report.

Non-audit services 

Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for 
non-audit services provided during the year by the 
auditor are outlined in note 26 to the financial statements. 
In the event non-audit services are provided by the 
auditor, the Board has established procedures to ensure 
that the provision of non-audit services is compatible with 
the general standard of independence for auditors.

These include:

•   All non-audit services are reviewed and approved 
to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and 
objectivity of the auditor; and

•   Non-audit services do not undermine the general 
principles relating to auditor independence as 
set out in APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for Professional 
Accountants’ issued by the Accounting Professional 
& Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing 
or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a 
management or decision-making capacity for the 
Group, acting as advocate for the Group or jointly 
sharing economic risks and rewards.

For the purposes of this report, the term “executive” 
includes the senior executives but does not include 
the NEDs or the secretary of the Company. All sections 
contained herein have been subject to audit as required 
by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act. Remuneration 
is referred to as compensation in this report. Details of 
KMP including remunerated executives of the Group are 
set out in the tables on pages 21 and 22. Unless otherwise 
indicated, the individuals were KMP for the entire 
financial year. There have been no changes to KMP after 
the reporting date and before the date of this report.  

Principles of compensation and strategy

The full Board assesses the appropriateness of the 
nature and amount of remuneration of NEDs and senior 
executives on a periodic basis by reference to relevant 
employment market conditions, with the overall objective 
of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the 
retention of a high performing director and executive 
team and aligning the interests of the executives with 
those of the shareholders.

TALi Digital Limited’s remuneration strategy is designed 
to attract, motivate and retain employees and NEDs 
by identifying and rewarding high performers and 
recognising the contribution of each employee to the 
continued growth and success of the Group. To this end, 
key objectives of the Group’s reward framework are to 
ensure that remuneration practices are aligned to the 
Group’s business strategy, offer competitive remuneration 
benchmarked against the external market, provide strong 
linkage between individual and Group performance 
and rewards and align the interests of executives with 
shareholders. 

Where relevant, the remuneration framework 
incorporates at risk components through Short-
term Incentives (STI) and Long-term Incentives (LTI) 
arrangements tailored to the particular executive by 
reference to both financial and other metrics which 
generate value for shareholders. The Board also sets 
the aggregate fee pool for NEDs (which is subject 
to shareholder approval) and NED fee levels. In 
accordance with best practice corporate governance, 
the structure of NED and executive remuneration is 
separate and distinct.

14  |     TALi Digital Limited Annual Report 2022

The Board assumes full responsibility for compensation 
policies and packages applicable to directors and senior 
executives of the Group. The broad compensation policy 
is to ensure the compensation package appropriately 
reflects the person’s duties and responsibilities, and 
that compensation levels are competitive in attracting, 
retaining and motivating people who possess the 
requisite level of skill and experience. Employees may 
receive at-risk incentive payments remunerated as cash 
and/or securities (performance rights or options) based 
on the achievement of specific goals related to the 
performance of the individual and the Group as a whole 
as determined by the directors. Incentives are provided to 
senior executives and employees for the achievement of 
individual and strategic objectives with the broader view 
of creating value for shareholders.

Fixed compensation

Fixed compensation consists of a base salary package, 
which includes Fringe Benefits Tax calculated on 
any salary packaging arrangements and employer 
superannuation contributions. Fixed compensation levels 
for KMPs and senior members of staff are reviewed by 
the Board and comprising the Group’s KMP, through 
a process that considers the employee’s personal 
development, achievement of key performance objectives 
for the year, industry benchmarks wherever possible 
and CPI data. The Board’s policy is to ensure that fixed 
remuneration is market competitive having regard to 
industry peers and companies of similar financial size. 
Given the Group’s size it is not considered necessary 
to engage remuneration consultants for this purpose 
and accordingly the Group undertakes its own informal 
review, which it does on an ongoing basis.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are individually tailored 
by the Board in advance for each employee each year, 
and reflect an assessment of how that employee can 
fulfil his or her particular responsibilities in a way that 
best contributes to Group performance and shareholder 
wealth in that year with close alignment to the role and 
responsibility within the organisation and in conjunction 
with the strategic objectives of the Group. 

Remuneration Report continued

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

Such securities may be fully vested upon issue given that 
they are issued as a reward for past performance rather 
than as an LTI. Any issue of such securities proposed 
as incentive compensation requires approval by the 
Board and is subject to any limitations imposed by the 
Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules. As at the date 
of this report, no such securities have been issued.

At, or as soon as practicable after, the beginning of the 
financial year, individual and team performance for the 
previous year is assessed for every employee by their 
manager and new objectives set for the forthcoming year. 
These objectives include department and project specific 
objectives together with individual stretch objectives, 
challenging, realistic and personal development 
objectives tailored to the employee’s role within the 
organisation. Measurement, management support, 
target dates and training course requirements are all 
set. Progress against the objectives is reviewed during 
the year and percentage achievement concluded at the 
end of the year, whereupon the cycle recommences. The 
outputs of this process form the basis of the assessment of 
the individual’s personal incentive compensation.

The Board has discretion to reduce, cancel or clawback 
any unvested performance-based remuneration in the 
event of serious misconduct or a material misstatement 
in the Group’s financial statements. All Performance 
Rights are also subject to an overriding condition that 
the financial performance of the Group, in the absolute 
discretion of the Board, has been satisfactory. 

Performance linked compensation 

All employees are potentially eligible to receive at-risk 
incentive payments and/or securities (shares or options) 
based on the achievement of specific goals related to: 

(i)  performance against individual key performance 

indicators; and/or

(ii)  the performance of the Group as a whole as 

determined by the Board based on a range of 
factors. 

These factors include traditional financial considerations 
such as operating performance, cash consumption and 
deals concluded and also industry specific factors. The 
purpose of these payments is to reward employees for 
their contribution to the Group. 

Employment contracts for staff other than the KMPs do 
not generally provide for at-risk or short-term incentive 
compensation arrangements having regard to the above 
factors although the Board always retains the right to 
agree or otherwise provide payments on a discretionary 
basis in special circumstances or where individual 
performance merits a payment being made. 

The Board is responsible for the determination of 
incentive compensation for employees and executives 
and for any decisions to award performance incentives. 
The Board at its sole discretion determines the total 
amount of performance-linked compensation payable 
as a percentage of the total annualised salaries for all 
employees employed as at the end of the financial year 
(with pro rata reductions to the annualised salary made 
for any employee not employed for the entire financial 
year).

The Directors have the discretion to recommend the offer 
of performance rights to acquire ordinary shares, options 
or the direct issue of shares to any member of staff in 
recognition of exemplary performance.

Chief Executive Officer - Mary Beth Brinson 

The Company has entered into an Executive Services Agreement (ESA) with Mary Beth Brinson (Brinson).

Under the ESA, Brinson is employed by the Company to provide services to the Company as Chief Executive Officer on a 
full-time basis. The Company will remunerate Brinson for her services with a base remuneration of $310,000 per annum, 
exclusive of superannuation and subject to annual review by the Company. 

The ESA may be terminated by either the Company or Brinson for any reason on 4 weeks’ written notice, in which case 
the Company can elect for Brinson to serve out all or part of that notice period and/or to pay Brinson an amount in lieu 
of continuing her employment during all or part of that notice period.

The ESA may also be terminated by the Company summarily at any time if Brinson breaches a material term of the ESA, 
or engages in any act or omission constituting serious misconduct, in which case the Company need not make any 
payment to Brinson other than accrued entitlements. 

Any discoveries and inventions made or discovered by Brinson during the term of the ESA which relate to the Company’s 
business must be disclosed to the Company and will remain the sole property of the Company. 

Mary Beth Brinson is also subject to restrictions in relation to: 

•   the use of confidential information during and after her employment with the Company; and 

•   being directly or indirectly involved in a competing business during and after her employment with the Company,  
     on terms which are considered standard for agreements of this nature.

Otherwise, the ESA is on terms considered standard for agreements of this nature.

Performance linked compensation 

The Company Secretary is engaged by the Company under a consultancy agreement. The agreement provides a fixed 
monthly fee for “in scope” services with additional work charged at hourly rates. The consultancy agreement is a rolling 
contract and can be terminated by either party by giving two months’ notice in writing to the other party. 

Long Term Incentive (LTI)

From time to time Board approval may be sought for the issue of securities (performance rights or options) to staff 
and executives as a means of providing a medium to long term incentive for performance and loyalty. Any such 
performance rights are issued under the TALi Digital Performance Rights Plan.

An amount of $171,485 (2021: $92,295) has been recognised in the 2022 financial year by way of shared based payment 
expense. In order to give the incentive medium to long term impact, the performance rights have an approximate three-
year life and a vesting profile as shown following.

Director compensation

The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate compensation of non-executive directors shall be 
determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount approved by shareholders is 
then divided between the directors as agreed by the Board. An amount of $350,000 was approved at the Company’s 
inaugural Annual General Meeting held on 4 October 2005. The Board does not intend to seek any increase for the 
Non-Executive Director (NED) maximum aggregate fee pool at the 2022 AGM.

The Board seeks to set NED fees at a level which provides the Group with the ability to attract and retain NEDs of the 
highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders. 

The maximum aggregate fee pool and the fee structure is reviewed annually against fees paid to NEDs of comparable 
companies in similar industries.

Non-executive directors do not receive performance related compensation and the structure of non-executive director and 
senior management compensation is separate and distinct. Non-executive directors do not have contracts of employment 
but are required to evidence their understanding and compliance with the Board policies of TALi Digital Limited. These 
Board policies do not prescribe how compensation levels for non-executive directors are modified from year to year. 
Compensation levels are to be reviewed by the Board each year taking into account cost of living, changes to the scope of 
the roles of the directors, and any changes required to meet the principles of the overall Board policies.

Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth 

In considering the Group’s performance and how best to generate shareholder value, the Board has regard 
to a broad range of factors, some of which are financial and others of which relate to the technical and 
commercial progress on the Group’s projects and, where applicable, relationship building with health clinics and 
institutions and internal innovation etc. The Board has some but not absolute regard to the Group’s result and 
cash consumption for the year. It does not utilise earnings per share as a performance measure and does not 
contemplate consideration of any dividends in the short to medium term given that all efforts are currently being 
devoted to obtaining value for the Group’s assets and where possible building the business and partnerships to 
establish self-sustaining revenue streams and total shareholder value. The Group is of the view that any short term, 
adverse movements in the Company’s share price should not necessarily be taken into account in assessing the 
performance of KMP’s.

This concludes the remuneration report, which has been audited.

This report is made with a resolution of the directors.

Notes to Financial Statements continued

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

These conditions indicate an uncertainty that may cast 
significant doubt about the ability of the Company to 
continue as a going concern. 

The directors have considered a cash flow forecast, 
which indicates that the Company will be required to 
obtain additional capital in order to have sufficient cash 
flows to meet all commitments and working capital 
requirements for the 12 month period from the date of 
signing this financial report. 

Based on the cash flow forecasts and other factors 
referred to above, the directors are satisfied that the 
going concern basis of preparation is appropriate and 
the directors are confident of the Company’s ability to 
raise additional funds as and when they are required. 

Should the Company be unable to achieve the matters 
as described above, it may be required to realise its 
assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the 
normal course of business and at amounts different to 
those stated in the financial statements. The financial 
statements do not include any adjustments relating to 
the recoverability and classification of asset carrying 
amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities 
that might result should the company be unable to 
continue as a going concern and meet its debt when they 
fall due.

1.  Reporting entity

TALi Digital Limited (the “Company”) is a company 
domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial 
statements of the Company as at 2022 comprise the 
Company and its subsidiary entities (together referred to 
as the “Group” and individually as “Group entities”). The 
Group primarily is involved in research and development, 
for commercialisation, of medical technology projects. 
The Company is a public company listed on the ASX, 
incorporated and domiciled in Australia, and with a 
registered office and principal place of business located 
at Suite 201, 697 Burke Road, Camberwell Vic 3124. 
Except as disclosed elsewhere in this Report, there 
have been no significant changes in the nature of these 
activities during the year.

2.  Basis of preparation

(a) Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements are general 
purpose financial statements which have been prepared 
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards 
(AASBs) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by 
the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and 
the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial 
statements comply with the International Financial 
Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and interpretations adopted 
by the International Accounting Standards Board.

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations 
(Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 
2016/191 issued by the Australian Securities and 
Investments Commission (ASIC), relating to the rounding 
off of amounts in the consolidated financial statements. 
Amounts in the consolidated financial statements have 
been rounded off in accordance with that legislative 
instrument to the nearest dollar, unless specifically stated 
to be otherwise.

 (b) Going concern 

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

For the year ended 30 June 2022, the Group incurred 
a loss of $6,936,129 (2021: $4,858,273), had negative 
operating cash flows of $4,328,145 (2021: $5,798,046) 
and had cash reserves of $1,845,128 (2021: $2,726,518). 
The Group’s main activity is developing and 
commercialising the TALi products and various service 
lines which will require further funding and investment.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going 
concern is principally dependent upon the ability of 
the Company to secure funds by raising capital from 
equity markets and managing cash flow in line with the 
available funds.

Notes to Financial Statements continued

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

2.  Basis of preparation (continued)

(c) Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of consolidated financial statements 
conforms with Australian Accounting Standards which 
requires management to make judgements, estimates 
and assumptions that affect the application of policies 
and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income 
and expenses. Actual results may differ from these 
estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed 
on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates 
are recognised in the period in which the estimate is 
revised if the revision only affects that period or in the 
period of the revision and future periods if the revision 
affects both current and future periods.

The key estimates and judgments made in preparing the 
financial statements are:

• Assessing the carrying amount and estimated useful life 
of identifiable intangible assets (refer to note 13); and

• Assessing the carrying amount of investments (refer to 
note 11).

3.  Significant accounting policies 

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

New or amended Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations adopted

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended 
Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the 
Australian Accounting Standards Boards (‘AASB’) that are 
mandatory for the current reporting period.

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

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

(a) Revenue and other income

Sale of goods

The Group follows AASB15 which is based on the 
principle that revenue is recognised when control of a 
good or service transfers to a customer.

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance 
obligations

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

Revenue from sale of goods is for a one-off fixed fee. 
In accordance with the 5-step approach, revenues are 
generally recognised at the time of delivery of the goods 
to the customer. Invoices for goods or services transferred 
are generally due upon receipt of the goods.

Government grants

Conditional government grants are recognised initially as 
deferred income when there is a reasonable assurance 
that they will be received and that the Group will comply 
with the conditions associated with the grant. Grants 
that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are 
recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the 
same periods in which the expenses are recognised.

An unconditional grant is recognised in profit or loss as 
other income when the grant becomes receivable.

(b) Financial Instruments

Investments and other financial assets are initially 
measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included 
as part of the initial measurement, except for financial 
assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are 
subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair 
value depending on their classification. Classification 
is determined based on both the business model within 
which such assets are held and the contractual cash 
flow characteristics of the financial asset unless, an 
accounting mismatch is being avoided.

Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to 
receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred 
and the consolidated entity has transferred substantially 
all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is 
no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of a 
financial asset, it’s carrying value is written off.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets not measured at amortised cost or at 
fair value through other comprehensive income are 
classified as financial assets at fair value through profit 
or loss. Typically, such financial assets will be either: (i) 
held for trading, where they are acquired for the purpose 
of selling in the short-term with an intention of making 
a profit, or a derivative; or (ii) designated as such upon 
initial recognition where permitted. Fair value movements 
are recognised in profit or loss.

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

Financial assets at fair value through other 
comprehensive income

1. Identifying the contract with a customer

2. Identifying the performance obligations

3. Determining the transaction price

Financial assets at fair value through other 
comprehensive income include equity investments which 
the Group intends to hold for the foreseeable future and 
has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon 
initial recognition.

TALi Digital Limited Annual Report 2022     |  33

using the foreign exchange rate at the date of the 
transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities 
denominated in foreign currencies that are measured 
at fair value are retranslated to Australian dollars at 
the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was 
determined.

(f) Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred 
tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss 
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised 
directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in 
equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable 
on the taxable income or loss for the year, using 
tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the 
reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in 
respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet 
liability method, providing for temporary differences 
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities 
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts 
used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured 
at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to 
the temporary differences when they reverse based 
on the laws that have been enacted or substantively 
enacted by the reporting date.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent 
that it is probable that future taxable profits will be 
available against which the temporary difference can 
be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each 
reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no 
longer probable that the related tax benefit will be 
realised.

For financial assets measured at fair value through 
other comprehensive income, the loss is recognised 
within other comprehensive income. In all other cases, 
the loss allowance is recognised in profit and loss.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances 
and call or term deposits. Accounting for finance 
income and costs are discussed in (c).

(c) Financial income and costs

Finance income comprises interest income on funds 
invested, dividend income, and changes in the 
fair value of financial assets at fair value through 
profit or loss, gains on hedging instruments that 
are recognised in profit or loss and reclassifications 
of amounts previously recognised in other 
comprehensive income. Interest income is recognised 
as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective 
interest method.

Finance costs comprise interest expense on 
borrowings, changes in the fair value of financial 
assets at fair value through profit or loss, impairment 
losses recognised on financial assets, and losses on 
hedging instruments that are recognised in profit 
or loss and reclassifications of amounts previously 
recognised in other comprehensive income.

(d) Goods and services tax

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of 
the amount of Goods and Services Tax (GST), except 
where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable 
from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the 
GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of 
the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount 
of GST excluded. The net amount of GST recoverable 
from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office 
(ATO) is included as a current asset or liability in the 
balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash 
flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash 
flows arising from investing and financing activities 
which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO 
are classified as operating cash flows.

(e) Foreign currency

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated 
at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of 
the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities 
denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting 
date are translated to Australian dollars at the 
foreign exchange rate at that date. Foreign exchange 
differences arising on translation are recognised in 
the income statement.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are 
measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign 
currency are retranslated to Australian dollars

Notes to Financial Statements continued

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

(g) Property, plant and equipment

(i) Cash and cash equivalents

(i)  Owned assets

The Group holds no property. Items of plant and 
equipment are measured at cost less accumulated 
depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes 
expenditures that are directly attributable to the 
acquisition of the asset. The costs of day to day 
servicing of plant and equipment are recognised in 
profit or loss as incurred. The cost of replacing part of 
an item of plant and equipment is recognised in the 
carrying amount of the asset if it is probable that the 
future economic benefits embodied within the part 
will flow to the Group and its costs can be measured 
reliably.

(ii)  Depreciation

Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a 
straightline basis over the estimated useful lives of 
each part of an item of plant and equipment. The 
estimated useful lives in the current and comparative 
periods are as follows:

   •    Plant and equipment 

2.5 – 10 years

   •    Leasehold improvements 

   •    Right-of-use asset  

3 years

3 years 

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual 
values are reassessed annually at the reporting date.

(h) Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired by the Group which 
satisfy the asset recognition criteria set out in 
AASB 138 Intangible Assets, are measured at cost 
less accumulated amortisation and accumulated 
impairment losses. Intangible assets which are 
considered to have a finite life are amortised over 
their estimated useful life. In respect of acquired 
licences / marketing rights, amortisation commences 
upon the asset becoming available for use, based 
on commercialisation of the licensed or marketed 
product. The estimated useful life of acquired 
intellectual property is 5-20 years (2021: 5-20 years).

Research and development

Research costs are expensed in the period in which 
they are incurred; development costs are capitalised 
when it is probable that the project will be a success 
considering its commercial and technical feasibility; 
the Group is able to use or sell the asset; the Group 
has sufficient resources; and intent to complete the 
development and its costs can be measured reliably. 
Capitalised development costs are amortised on a 
straight-line basis over the period of their expected 
benefit being their finite life. Management assessed 
the finite life in 2021 to be 14.5 years (previously 7 
years) in line with the Group’s major patent expiry 
dates. 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances 
and short-term deposits with an original maturity of 
three months or less.

(j) Impairment

A financial asset is considered to be impaired if 
objective evidence indicates that one or more events 
have had a negative effect on the estimated future 
cash flows of that asset.

The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets are 
reviewed at each balance date to determine whether 
there is any indication of impairment. If any such 
indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset 
is estimated.

An impairment loss in respect of an asset measured 
at amortised cost is calculated as the difference 
between the carrying amount and the present value 
of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the 
effective original interest rate.

Individually significant financial assets are tested for 
impairment on an individual basis. The remaining 
financial assets are assessed collectively in groups 
that share similar credit risk characteristics.

All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. 
Aside from impairment of goodwill, an impairment 
loss is reversed if the reversal can be related 
objectively to an event occurring after the impairment 
loss was recognised. For financial assets measured at 
amortised cost, the reversal is recognised in profit or 
loss.

The carrying amounts for non-financial assets are 
reviewed each reporting date to determine whether 
there is any indication of impairment. If any such 
indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount 
is estimated and an impairment loss recognised 
in profit or loss if the carrying amount of an asset 
exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable 
amount of an asset is determined as the greater of its 
value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value 
in use is assessed using discounted cash flow analysis. 
When determining fair value less costs to sell, the 
Group takes into account information from recent 
market transactions and other available market-
based information.

TALi Digital Limited Annual Report 2022     |  35

 
 
 
3.  Significant accounting policies (continued)

(i) Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past 
event, the Group has a present legal or constructive 
obligation that can be measured reliably, and it is 
probable that an outflow of economic benefits will 
be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are 
determined by discounting the expected future cash 
flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market 
assessments of the time value of money and, when 
appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

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.

(m) Right-of-use asset

At inception of a contract, the Group assesses 
whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract 
is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right 
to control the use of an identified asset for a period of 
time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether 
a contract conveys the right to control the use of an 
identified asset, the Group assesses whether:

•   The contract involves the use of an identified 

asset – this may be specified explicitly or implicitly 
and should be physically distinct asset. If the 
supplier has a substantiate substitution right, 
then the asset is not identified;

•   The Group has the right to obtain substantially 

all of the economic benefits from use of the asset 
throughout the period of use; and

(k) Employee benefits

(i) Long-term service benefits

The Group’s net obligation in respect of long-term 
employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that 
employees have earned in return for their service in 
the current and prior periods plus related on-costs. 
That benefit is discounted to determine its present 
value. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting 
date on corporate bonds that have maturity dates 
approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations.

(ii) Share-based payment transactions

The Group provides benefits to its employees in the 
form of share-based payments, via options over 
shares (equity-settled transaction). There is currently 
an Employee Share Option Plan in place as part of 
the LTI, for the issue of share based payments to staff 
and KMP to incentivise performance and loyalty. The 
options over shares will vest over a period of three 
years subject to the employee remaining employed by 
the Group. For KMP there may also be performance 
measures built into the vesting criteria. The cost of the 
equity-settled transaction is recognised, together with 
a corresponding increase in equity, over the period 
in which the performance and/or service conditions 
are fulfilled (vesting period), ending on the date the 
relevant employees benefit become fully entitled to 
the award (the vesting date). The fair value of the 
performance rights is based on the Monte Carlo 
pricing model to test the likelihood of attaining the 
vesting criteria.

(iii)  Wages, salaries, annual leave and at-risk 

performance incentives

Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries, 
annual leave and performance incentives represent 
present obligations resulting from employees’ services 
provided up to reporting date and are calculated 
at undiscounted amounts based on compensation 
wage and salary rates that the Group expects to 
pay as at reporting date including related on-costs, 
such as workers’ compensation insurance and 
payroll tax. Government stimulus payments such as 
PAYGW cash boost and JobKeeper are recorded as a 
reimbursement of expenditure.

(iv) Superannuation

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution 
superannuation funds are recognised as an expense 
in profit or loss when they are due. The Group has no 
defined benefit pension fund obligations.

Notes to Financial Statements continued

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

Lease payments included in the measurement of the 
lease liability comprise:

•   Fixed payments, including in-substance fixed 

payments;

•   Variable lease payments that depend on an index 
or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate 
as at the commencement date;

•   Amounts expected to be payable under a residual 

value guarantee; and

•   The exercise price under a purchase option 

that the Group is reasonably certain to exercise, 
lease payments in an optional renewal period 
if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise 
an extension option, and penalties for early 
termination of a lease unless the Group is 
reasonably certain not to terminate early.

The lease liability is measure at amortised cost using 
the effective interest method. It is remeasured when 
there is a change in future lease payments arising 
for a change in an index or rate, if there is a change 
in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to 
be payable under a residual value guarantee or if 
the Group changes its assessment of whether it will 
exercise a purchase, extension or termination option.

 When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, 
a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying 
amount of the right-of-use asset or is recorded in 
profit or lost if the carrying amount of the right-of-use 
asset has been reduced to zero.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use 
assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that 
have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of 
low-value assets, including IT equipment. The Group 
recognises the lease payments as associated with 
these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis 
over the lease term.

3.  Significant accounting policies (continued)

(m) Right-of-use asset

•   The Group has the right to direct the use of the 
asset. The Group has the right when it has the 
decision-making rights that are most relevant to 
changing how and for what purpose the asset is 
used. In rare cases where all the decisions about 
how and for what purpose the asset is used are 
predetermined, the Group has the right to direct 
the use of the asset if either:

   o The Group has the right to operate the asset; or

   o The Group designed the asset in a way that 

predetermines how and for what purpose it will 
be used.

At inception or on reassessment of a contract that 
contains a lease component, the Group allocates the 
consideration in the contract that contains a lease 
component, the Group allocates the consideration in 
the contract to each lease component on the basis of 
their relative stand-alone prices.

The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a 
lease liability at the lease commencement date. The 
right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which 
comprises the initial amount of the lease liability 
adjusted for any lease payments made at or before 
the commencement date, plus any initial direct 
costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle 
and remove the underlying asset or to restore the 
underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less 
any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated 
using the straight-line method from the 
commencement date to the earlier of the end of the 
useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the 
lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use 
assets are determined on the same basis as those of 
property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use 
asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if 
any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the 
lease liability.

 The lease liability is initially measured at the present 
value of the lease payments that are not paid at 
the commencement date, discounted using the 
interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot 
be readily determined, the Group’s incremental 
borrowing rate. Generally, the Group uses its 
incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

TALi Digital Limited Annual Report 2022     |  37

(t) Non-current assets or disposal groups 
classified as held for sale

Non-current assets and assets of disposal groups 
are classified as held for sale if their carrying 
amount will be recovered principally through a 
sale transaction rather than through continued 
use. They are measured at the lower of their 
carrying amount and fair value less costs of 
disposal. For non-current assets or assets of 
disposal groups to be classified as held for sale, 
they must be available for immediate sale in their 
present condition and their sale must be highly 
probable.

An impairment loss is recognised for any initial 
or subsequent write down of the non-current 
assets and assets of disposals groups to fair 
value less costs of disposal. A gain is recognised 
for any subsequent increases in fair value less 
costs of disposal of a noncurrent assets and 
assets of disposal groups, but not in excess of any 
cumulative impairment loss previously recognised.

Non-current assets are not depreciated or 
amortised while they are classified as held for 
sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to 
the liabilities of assets held for sale continue to be 
recognised.

(u) Borrowings

All loans and borrowings are initially recognised 
at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. 
Borrowings are subsequently measured at 
amortised cost. Any difference between the 
proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the 
redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss 
over the year of the loans and borrowings using 
the effective interest method.

Borrowings are derecognised from the statement 
of financial position when the obligation specified 
in the contract has been discharged, cancelled 
or expires. The difference between the carrying 
amount of the borrowing derecognised and the 
consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss as 
other income or finance costs.

All borrowings are classified as current liabilities 
unless the Group has an unconditional right 
to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 
months after the end of the reporting year.

3.  Significant accounting policies (continued)

(n) Research and development

Research expenditure undertaken with the prospect 
of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge 
or understanding is expensed in profit or loss as 
incurred. Development expenditure is capitalised 
only if development costs can be measured reliably, 
the product is technically and commercially feasible, 
future economic benefits are probable, and 
completion of development is intended.

(o) Segment reporting

A segment is a distinguishable component of a 
Group engaged in providing products or services 
within a particular business sector or geographical 
environment. The Group determines and presents 
operating segments based on information that 
internally is provided to and used by the CEO, who 
is the Group’s chief operating decision maker. From 1 
July 2020 the Group deems to only operate within one 
business segment.

(p) Earnings per share

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings 
per share for its ordinary shares. Basic earnings per 
share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the profit or loss 
attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company 
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares 
outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated 
by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary 
shareholders and the weighted average number 
of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all 
dilutive potential ordinary shares, including share 
options granted to employees and to third parties.

(q) Share capital

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of 
ordinary shares and share options are recognised as 
a deduction from equity, net of any associated tax 
benefit.

(r) Fair value reserve

The fair value reserve comprises the cumulative 
net change in the fair value of financial assets with 
changes in their fair value recognised in the Statement 
of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.

(s) New standards and interpretations not yet 
adopted 

A number of new standards, amendments to 
standards and interpretations effective for annual 
periods beginning on or after 1 July 2021 have not 
been applied in preparing these consolidated 
financial statements. None of these is expected to 
have a significant effect on the consolidated financial 
statements of the Group.

The deductible temporary differences and any tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation. Deferred tax 
assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be 
available from which the Group can utilise the benefits. There was no deferred tax recognised directly in equity. As at 
30 June 2022 the Group has revenue losses of approximately $165 million (2021: $159 million).

August 2022. Due to various reasons outlined in the Director’s Operations Report $1,106,125 credits were not utilised 
by their expiry date. The Group requested an indefinite extension for the utilisation of  the credits as management 
reassess the Group’s Indian advertising and marketing  plan. At the date of this report management assessed the 
likelihood of obtaining the extension as low and therefore the remaining credits were written off at 30 June 2022.

(i) Licences and intellectual property

On the acquisition of TALi Health Pty Ltd announced on February 15th 2016, TALi Digital recognised intellectual property 
(including licences) at a fair value of $1,096,074. In June 2020 patents and other intellectual property were acquired 
in relation to TALi products at a fair value of $428,000. Intangibles are initially recognised at cost and amortised on a 
straight-line basis over the period of expected benefit, less any adjustments for impairment losses. The estimated useful 
life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period.

(ii) Internally developed assets

Internally developed assets include the applied development activities conducted on the TALi Technology in respect 
of the development stage of the TALi TRAIN© and TALi DETECT© projects.  

On 1 April 2021, the estimated useful life of the internally developed assets was reassessed to align the useful life of 
the assets to the expiry of the assets’ main issued patent. The estimated useful life was reassessed to be 14.5 years 
(previously 7 years). The date of reassessment occurred on 1 April 2021 in line with the assets roll out to the Indian 
market. Both TALi TRAIN© and TALi DETECT© assets were assessed as available and ready for use for customers 
from the date of reassessment and have been amortised accordingly. 

An assessment was made by management to determine whether any indicators of impairment exist. Indicators 
assessed included but were not limited to; the Group’s market capitalisation, technology obsolescence, changes in 
laws and regulations and COVID-19. No indicators of impairment were identified.

During the period the Company executed a funding facility (Facility) with Treasury Corporation of Victoria (TCV) as 
part of the Victorian Government’s R&D Cash Flow Loan Initiative (Initiative) of up to $503,744.

The Company received the first tranche of $300,000 in October 2021 and the second tranche of $203,744 in February 
2022. 

Interest on Facility advances is variable at the “TCV 11am” loan interest rate (as at 1 August 2022 was 1.515%) and 
repaid monthly. Repayment of the Facility is timed to coincide with receipt of Tali Digital’s FY2023 RDTI refund, 
expected by 31 October 2023, but may be repaid earlier. The Facility is secured by the FY2022 and FY2023 R&D Tax 
Incentive (RDTI) refunds. As part of the agreement the Company must maintain a Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) of 80%. 
As the Company’s estimated FY2022 RDTI falls below the requirement to meet the LVR, a repayment to reduce the 
LVR to 80% may be required by October 2022 and is therefore classified as current.

the capital raise occurred.

TALi Digital Long-Term Incentive Plan

The purpose of the TALi Digital Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) is to provide long term rewards that are linked 
to shareholder returns. Under the LTIP, selected executives may be offered several performance rights (Right) 
and share options. Each Right provides the entitlement to acquire one TALi share at nil cost to the satisfaction of 
performance hurdles.

The fair value of performance rights granted is recognised as an employee expense with a corresponding increase 
in equity. The fair value is measured by an independent third party at grant date and recognised over the three-
year vesting period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the performance rights.

23. Financial instruments disclosure and financial risk management

The Group has exposure to market, credit and liquidity risks from the use of financial instruments. This note presents 
information about the Group’s exposure to each of these risks, its objectives, policies and processes for measuring 
and managing 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 adherence to limits. The Group has adopted a Strategic Risk 
Management Framework through which it manages risks and aims to develop a disciplined and constructive 
control environment and action plans for risks that cannot be effectively managed through the use of controls. The 
Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s Strategic Risk Management 
Framework in relation to the changing risks faced by the Group.

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity 
prices, will affect the Group’s income or value of its holdings in financial instruments. The objective of market risk 
management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising 
the financial return. No more than $2.7m of the Group’s cash resources is permitted to be invested in securities or 
investments other than bank and term deposits without approval by the shareholders at an AGM. In respect of listed 
company investments, the holding is reviewed by the Audit Committee if the market price falls by more than 10% 
below the initial acquisition cost.

(i) Foreign currency risk 

The Group has contracts denominated in foreign currencies, predominantly in US dollars and Euros, and may enter 
into forward exchange contracts where appropriate in light of anticipated future purchases and sales, conditions 
in foreign markets, commitments from customers and past experience and in accordance with Board-approved 
limits. Note 3(e) sets out the accounting treatments for such contracts. There were no hedged amounts payable or 
receivable in foreign currencies at reporting date (2021: nil).

At reporting date, the Group had the following exposures to foreign currency, converted to AUD:

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

A 10% strengthening or weakening of the Australian dollar applied against the Gross balance sheet exposure in 
the above table in respect of the above currencies as at 30 June 2022 would have increased/(decreased) profit or 
loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain 
constant. A sensitivity of 10% has been selected as this is considered reasonable taking in to account the current 
level of exchange rates and the volatility observed both on a historical basis and on market expectations for future 
movements. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2021. There is no impact on equity.

An increase or decrease of 0.50% in interest rates applied for 12 months to the cash balances at reporting date 
would have increased or decreased profit or loss by $23,502 (2021: $4,751), if all other variables, including foreign 
currency rates, remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2021.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties fail to perform as contracted. For financial 
assets, the credit risk exposure of the Group is the carrying amount of the asset net of any provision for expected 
credit losses. 

(i) Receivables 

The Group undertakes due diligence prior to entering any collaboration, co-development or licensing agreement 
with a counterparty that exposes the Group to credit risk. The Group’s exposure to credit risk from receivables is 
shown below. No amounts are past due and impaired at balance date.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. 
The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will maintain sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities 
when due having regard to forecast cash inflows and outflows, which in turn may be impacted by planned 
corporate transactions.

The Group manages its liquidity risk using existing cash reserves managed in accordance with a Cash Management 
and Treasury Policy. Under this policy, sufficient liquidity to meet day to day operating requirements is maintained 
in interest-bearing operating, at-call and term bank accounts. Cash balances are prepared daily and cash 
requirements monitored on weekly, month end reporting and annual budget/forecast cycles.

(d) Net fair values of financial assets and liabilities

Net fair values of financial assets and liabilities are determined by the Group on the following bases:

(i)  For monetary financial assets and financial liabilities not readily traded in an organised financial market, values 
are determined by valuing them at the value of contractual cash flow amounts due from customers and payable 
to suppliers discounted as appropriate for settlements beyond 12 months;

(ii)  The carrying amounts of bank balances and deposits, trade debtors and accounts payable expected to be 

payable within 12 months.

At reporting date there were no material differences between carrying values and fair values.

(e) Capital management

The Board’s policy is to maintain a sufficient capital base so as to sustain investor, creditor and market confidence and 
to facilitate the future development of the business. As noted in note 2(b), in order to meet forecast operating cash 
requirements, the Group may need to raise funds from other sources which may include raising capital or securing debt 
facilities.

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the Members of TALi Digital Limited  

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of TALi Digital Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), 
which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2022, the consolidated 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity 
and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial 
statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the Directors’ declaration.  

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

a  giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2022 and of its performance 

for the year ended on that date; and  

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

Basis for opinion 

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

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

Material uncertainty related to going concern 

We draw attention to Note 2(b) in the financial statements, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of 
$6,936,129 during the year ended 30 June 2022, and the Group’s operating cash flow for the year was an 
outflow of $4,328,145. The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is principally dependant on the 
ability of the Group to secure funds by raising capital from equity markets and managing cash flows in line with 
available funds. As stated in Note 2(b), these events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that 
may cast doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of 
this matter. 

Key audit matters  

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

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

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

•  Assessing the Group's accounting policy for 

capitalisation of development costs for adherence to 
AASB 138; 

•  Evaluating the assumptions utilised by management 

that support the generation of future economic 
benefits from the capitalised costs; 

•  Considering other qualitative considerations, 

including market valuation of the Group compared to 
its net assets, recent trial results, additional public 
information and press releases to challenge 
management’s assessment of impairment indicators; 

•  Obtaining supporting documentation to demonstrate 

ongoing use of the asset; and 

•  Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures within the 

financial statements. 

Intangible assets – notes 3(h) and 13 

The Group has intangible assets with a written down 
value of $3,845,015 as at 30 June 2022, which consist 
of both acquired and internally generated intangibles. 

The acquired assets consist of a health licence and 
intellectual property relating to the TALi technology 
acquired as part of the purchase of TALi Health Pty Ltd 
in 2016. Internally generated intangibles consist of 
capitalised development costs relating to the TALi 
Train and TALi Detect products that the Group has 
developed. 

In accordance with AASB 138 Intangible Assets, only 
directly attributable costs incurred during the 
development phase may be capitalised and 
recognised as an asset. AASB 136 Impairment of 
Assets requires that an entity shall assess at the end 
of each reporting period whether there is any indication 
that an asset may be impaired. The entity shall 
estimate the asset’s recoverable amount if any 
indication exists. 

This area is a key audit matter due to the judgement 
and estimation required in determining the recoverable 
amounts and whether the requirements of AASB 138 
and AASB 136 are satisfied.

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

R&D incentives – notes 3(a), 5 and 10 

The Group receives a 43.5% refundable tax offset of 
eligible expenditure under the Research and 
Development (R&D) Tax Incentive scheme if its 
turnover is less than $20 million per annum, provided 
income tax-exempt entities do not control it. 

An R&D plan is filed with AusIndustry in the following 
financial year, and upon lodgement of its income tax 
return, the Group receives the incentive in cash. 
Management has reviewed the Group’s total research 
and development expenditure to determine the 
potential claim under the R&D tax incentive legislation. 

Calculating the R&D tax rebate requires judgement 
and specialised knowledge in identifying eligible 
expenditures, leading to anticipated R&D tax 
incentives. Balances in relation to R&D tax incentives 
are therefore considered to be a key audit matter. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

•  Comparing the estimates made in the prior year to 
the amount of cash received after lodgement of the 
R&D tax claim; 

•  Obtaining FY22 R&D rebate calculations performed 
by management and performing the following audit 
procedures: 

– 

– 

– 

– 

– 

Reviewing the expenditure methodology 
employed by management and rebate 
calculations prepared by the Group’s external 
expert; 

Assessing the competence, capability and 
objectivity of the Group’s external expert; 

Evaluating whether included expenses agree to 
the underlying supporting documentation; 

Testing the mathematical accuracy of the 
accrual; and 

Considering the nature of the expenses against 
the eligibility criteria of the R&D tax incentive 
scheme to form a view about whether the 
expenses included in the estimate were likely to 
meet the eligibility criteria. 

•  Assessing the adequacy of disclosures in the notes 

to the financial statements. 

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon 

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included 
in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2022, but does not include the financial report and our 
auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of 
assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing 
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge 
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial report  

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair 
view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal 
control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true 
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.  

Grant Thornton Australia Limited

TALi Digital Limited Annual Report 2022     |  63

 
 
 
 
In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a 
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of 
accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic 
alternative but to do so.  

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report  

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

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

Report on the remuneration report 

Opinion on the remuneration report 

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 14 to 23 of the Directors’ report for the year 
ended 30 June 2022.  

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of TALi Digital Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2022 complies 
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.  

Responsibilities 

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report 
in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 
Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
