CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER REPORT 

Welcome to all our shareholders reading our 2015 Annual Report. 

The 2015 financial year has continued to be a successful period in shaping and executing the Group’s strategy 
as reflected in our financial performance. 

ThinkSmart  is  a  leading  financial  technology  company  providing  digital  and  paperless  retail  point  of  sale 
finance products to both B2B and B2C customer segments via UK national retail distribution, pre-dominantly 
with the Dixons Carphone Group through a 12-year relationship now extended to 2019.  Dixons Carphone plc 
is Europe’s leading specialist electrical and telecommunications retailer. 

During  the  year  we  have  invested  significantly  in  our  proprietary  systems,  people,  and  funding  platforms  to 
further  leverage  our  sector  leading  software  and  processing  IP  together  with  paperless  transactions,  online 
basket integration and market innovative new customer account and mobile application products and services. 

We  continue  to  execute  our  strategy  of  building  long  term  value  in  the  UK  with  a  focus  on  the  release  and 
distribution  of  our  leading  integrated  online  basket  and  mobile  finance  solutions  for  retailers  and  continual 
optimisation  of  our  credit  scoring  and  decision  engine  capabilities  to  maximise  volumes  and  manage  risk.  
ThinkSmart’s business continues to perform well supported by a strong UK economy with a continuing positive 
outlook for growth in retail sales, consumer confidence and further reductions in unemployment. 

ThinkSmart  remains  focused  on  positioning  the  business  for  growth  and  profitability  through  the  ongoing 
development and execution of our strategy to build long-term value in the UK through our 3 Pillars of Growth: 

1.  Organic growth with current and new product with existing partners  
2.  Diversification 

in  product  and  market  development  by  extending  the  model  with  new 

3. 

distribution, sectors and products, and 
Investment  in  strategically  aligned  businesses  with  the  opportunity  to  unlock  value  through 
synergies and leveraging the platform through products and distribution 

We continue to look to build long term, distribution agreements and entrenched partnerships which deliver 
value  for  retailers  and  their  customers.    Our  products  are  executable  throughout  today’s  complex  retail 
channel, creating  additional  revenue  and  enhanced  margin  performance  for  our  retail  partners  both  on  and 
offline. 

We  strongly  believe  the  UK  is  the  place  to  be  to  grow  our  business.  ThinkSmart  has  a  strong  long  term 
relationship  with  Dixons,  UK’s  leading  electrical  retailer  and  the  UK  market  is  nearly  three  times  the  size  of 
Australia with 62 million consumers.  ThinkSmart has secured access to many of these consumers through its 
strong relationship with Dixons.  ThinkSmart’s sector leading intellectual property delivers capability for point 
of sale financing solutions and facilitates the rapid development of innovative products into other retail sectors 
allowing us to create financing solutions with various partners at relatively low cost and in rapid timeframes.

Annual Report 2015

The 2015 financial period enabled ThinkSmart to reshape its balance sheet with the successful on market buy-
back of up to 10% of issued shares being completed on 30 September 2014 and an off market tender share 
buy-back purchasing 63m shares being implemented during January 2015 at a cost of $20m.  As part of the off 
market share buy-back a $6m special dividend, composing a fully franked amount at 4 cents per share and an  

unfranked amount at 8 cents per share, was declared on 27 January 2015 and paid on 30 January 2015.  As a 
result the company now has approximately 96.2m fully paid ordinary shares on issue.  

Further unlocking shareholder value 

Following this transformational and successful year, and to further assist in unlocking value in the UK business, 
the  Board  has  appointed  Canaccord  Genuity,  a  global  full-service  investment  banking  and  financial  services 
group,  as  its  strategic  advisor  to  explore  options  open  to  the  company  to  continue  to  maximise  value  for 
shareholders.  

Finally,  on  behalf  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  we  would  like  to  thank  all  of  ThinkSmart’s  customers,  partners, 
funders  and  shareholders  for  their  continuing  support.    We  especially  want  to  thank  the  entire  team  at 
ThinkSmart  for  their  ongoing  commitment  and  enthusiasm,  and  their  hard  work  and  contribution  in 
developing and delivering our plans.  We look forward to implementing the initiatives ahead for the benefit of 
all our stakeholders.

Review of operations 

Continuing operations – UK 
A consistent set of results was delivered by the UK business. 

New  originations  totalling  $37.8m  are  up  33%  on  a  constant  currency  basis  against  the  last  12  month  reporting  period  from 
continuous operations. This is mainly a result of the growth in the consumer offering ‘Upgrade Anytime’ launched on 15 May 2014 
which has revitalised the product whilst broadening the product range to now include televisions as  well as computers and tablets. 
This  combined  with  strong  repeat  business  (circa  30%)  is  now  producing  a  strong  pattern  of  growth  and  customer  retention.  The 
business  offering  ‘SmartPlan’  has  seen  growth  in  every  month  of  the  12  months  to  30  June  2015  and  benefitted  from  successful 
Spring and Autumn campaigns. 

UK average transaction values (ATV’s) have reduced to $1,336 down 7% on a constant currency basis against same period last year 
due  to  a  higher  proportion  of  Upgrade  Anytime  leases.  The  growth  in  volumes  has  now  reversed  the  decline  in  assets  under 
management which have now increased to $56.5m up 14% on a constant currency basis against same period last year. 

A new £10m 5 year revolving credit facility was signed with Santander on 15 December 2014 resulting in lease receivables together 
with related bank debt strengthening the group balance sheet. In addition reduced funding costs will improve margins, however lease 
accounting means income and costs will be recognised over the 24 month term of each lease rather than upfront. 

Continuing operations – Corporate 
Corporate costs continue to fall being $3.3m for the 12 months to 30 June 2015 (down 25% on last 12 month reporting period).

The  return  of  surplus  capital  to  shareholders  through  the  on  and  off  market  buy-backs  is  reflected  in  the  table  above  through  the 
reduction in cash as at 30 June 2015. 

The company has now taken on $4.1m (note 18) corporate debt through the UK Santander facility but available cash remains strong 
at $16.4m at the end of June 2015. 

Business strategies and prospects for future financial years 

Distribution network 
ThinkSmart  has  a  12  year  partnership  with  Dixons,  now  extended  to  2019,  and  there  is  now  a  strong  leadership  focus  on  the  UK, 
aimed at establishing additional relationships. 

Operational capability and efficiency 
With the recent appointment of Mr Fernando de Vicente as Chief Executive Officer along with Mr Keith Jones continuing in the new 
role of Executive Director Group Strategy and Development on a part time basis, both with extensive retail experience, ThinkSmart 
plans to use its market leading IP capability to further develop its multi-channel operating model at an efficient and scalable level.  

Asset quality 
Our  continued  focus  on  consistent  improvements  in  loss  history  is  expected  to  improve  the  cost  of  funding,  as  it  will  make 
ThinkSmart a more attractive proposition to potential new funding partners. 

Product diversification 
Upgrade Anytime was launched on 15 May 2014 and replaced the Infinity consumer product within Dixon stores. Upgrade Anytime 
has  broadened  the  category  range  to  TVs  and  gives  the  customer  more  flexibility  in  terms  of  upgrading  early  and  product/service 
range. 

The SmartPlan offering will be revitalised in the second half of 2015, targeting realignment to meet the changing retail environment. 
In addition to existing products, our in-house development capability will be used to develop bespoke products for new partners and 
markets. 

Funding platform and cash resources 
The group now has a multi-funder model after signing a new £10m 5 year revolving credit facility with Santander contracted to 2019 
to fund the Group’s on balance sheet leases.  This compliments the current £60m facility with Secure Trust Bank contracted to April 
2016, which funds off balance sheet leases.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

Strategic Review 
The  group  has  appointed  Canaccord  Genuity  as  strategic  advisor  to  the  Board  to  assist  in  continuing  to  unlock  value  for  the  UK 
business and this could result in a range of outcomes including the Group entering new partnerships, new businesses or changes to the 
ownership or structure of the group 

Risks 

ThinkSmart accepts that risk is an inherent part of doing business and actively identifies, monitors and manages material risks. 

Key material risks faced by the group are: 

Credit risk 
The credit quality of accepted customers and the Group’s policies and procedures to mitigate payment defaults has an impact on the 
Group’s financial performance either directly through impairment losses or indirectly through funding costs. Robust credit checking 
and collections processes combined with continual development of our market leading IP capability in this area assist in managing 
and mitigating this risk. 

Achievement of Volume Growth 
The  Group’s  ability  to  achieve  its  growth  targets  is  impacted  by  its  Retail  partners’  own  growth  strategies,  key  relationships  with 
those  partners,  the  ability  to  establish  new  partnerships,  regulatory  risks  or  product  lines,  and  the  broader  economic  environment 
particularly in the retail sector.  

Funding 
The availability and cost of funds impacts the Group’s product pricing decisions, its ability to accept volume growth delivered by its 
partners and the ultimate profitability of its products. The historic credit quality of ThinkSmart’s lending, market competition for debt 
and other macro-economic factors also impact this risk. 

Concentration Risk 
The  vast  majority  of  the  Group’s  new  business  volumes  are  from  its  Retail  partner,  Dixons  Carphone,  Europe’s  leading  specialist 
electrical  and  telecommunications  retailer.    The  Group  has  a  long  term  exclusive  contract  with  Dixons  which  has  recently  been 
extended to 2019 which is conditional on the group continuing to perform and develop the financial products it provides to Dixons 
just as it has done since 2003. 

Currency Risk 
The majority of the Group’s income and assets are from its UK operations and therefore are denominated in GBP creating currency 
risk  when  translating  to  AUD.    This  risk  is  mitigated  by  ensuring  that  the  majority  of  the  Group’s  costs  and  liabilities  are  also 
denominated in GBP however the currency translation risk remains on the net profit and net assets held in GBP.    

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS 

During the period to 30 June 2015 63,006,935 shares (40% of shares in issue) were purchased and cancelled as part of an on market 
buyback scheme at a cost of $20m (see note 19(a)).

THINKSMART LIMITED 
DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

The Board recognises that the Company’s performance depends upon the quality of its staff. To achieve its financial and operating 
objectives,  the  Company  must  attract,  motivate  and  retain  highly  skilled  Directors  and  Executives.  To  this  end,  the  remuneration 
structure seeks to: 

Provide competitive rewards to attract, retain and motivate talented Directors and Executives; 

• 
•  Align  incentive  rewards  with  the  Company’s  short  term  and  long  term  objectives  by  including  a  portion  of  Executive 

remuneration “at risk” as short term and long term incentives; 
Set demanding performance hurdles which are clearly linked to an Executive’s remuneration; and 
Structure remuneration at a level that reflects the Executive’s duties and responsibilities and is competitive within the sector. 

• 
• 

The remuneration structures take into account: 

• 
• 
• 

the capability and experience of the individual; 
the individual’s ability to control the relevant segment’s performance; and 
the performance of the Group. 

The  Nomination  and  Remuneration  Committee  may  obtain  independent  advice  on  the  appropriateness  of  remuneration  packages, 
trends in comparative companies and markets, both locally and internationally, and the objectives of the Company’s remuneration 
strategy. 

Remuneration  packages  include  a  mix  of  fixed  and  variable  remuneration  with  a  blend  of  short-term  and  long-term  performance-
based  incentives.  The  variable  remuneration  components  are  directly  linked  to  both  the  performance  of  the  Group  and  the 
performance  of  the  Company’s  share  price.  This  ensures  close  alignment  of  remuneration  of  Key  Management  Personnel  and  the 
creation of shareholder value. 

Non-Executive Directors 
Fees and payments to Non-Executive Directors reflect the demands which are made on and the responsibilities of the Non-Executive 
Directors. Non-Executive Directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. Non-Executive Directors do not receive 
share options or loan-funded shares.  

Non-Executive Directors’ Fees 
Non-Executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool of $600,000 per annum and was approved by 
shareholders  at  a  previous  general  meeting.  The  total  fees  paid  in  the  financial  period  were  $105,720.  In  addition  to  these  fees, 
Directors also receive superannuation contributions as required under government legislation. The Company also pays all reasonable 
expenses incurred by Directors attending meetings and carrying out their duties. 

Executive Pay 
The Group’s executive remuneration structure has four components which comprise the Executive’s total remuneration: 

• 
• 
• 
• 

base pay and benefits; 
short-term performance incentives (STIs); 
long-term incentives through participation in the ThinkSmart Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIs); and 
other remuneration such as superannuation.

Executives  are  offered  a  competitive  salary  that  comprises  the  components  of  base  pay  and  benefits.  Base  pay  for  Executives  is 
reviewed  annually  by  the  Nomination  and  Remuneration  Committee  or  the  Executive  Chairman  to  ensure  the  Executive’s  pay  is 
competitive with the market and appropriate to the Executive’s experience, responsibilities and contribution. An Executive’s pay is 
also  reviewed  on  promotion.  Base  pay  for  the  Executive  Chairman  is  reviewed  annually  by  the  Nomination  and  Remuneration 
Committee.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

Short-Term Performance Incentive 
Short-term performance incentives (STIs) vary according to individual contracts, however, for Executives they are broadly based as 
follows: 

• 

• 

a component of the STI is linked to the individual performance of the Executive (this is based on a number of factors, including 
performance against budgets, achievement of key performance indicators (KPIs) and other personal objectives); and 
a component of the STI is linked to the financial performance of the Group determined at the beginning of each financial year. 

Using various performance targets and personal performance objectives the Group ensures variable reward is only paid when value 
has  been  created  for  shareholders.  The  performance  measures  include  financial,  such  as  Profit  Before  Tax  and  the  value  of  new 
originations, and non-financial, including KPIs targeting high levels of customer service and new retail partner acquisition. The STI 
bonus is delivered in the form of cash. 

The short-term bonus payments may be adjusted up or down in line with under or over achievement against the target performance 
levels.  This  is  at  the  discretion  of  the  Nomination  and  Remuneration  Committee  or  the  Executive  Chairman.  The  STI  targets  are 
reviewed annually. Information on the STI is detailed in section F of the Remuneration Report. 

Long-Term Performance Incentive 
Long-term performance incentives are awarded to Key Management Personnel and other Executives. Prior to 2012, incentives were 
awarded  under  the  Company’s  Executive  Share  Option  Plan.  In  May  2012,  shareholders  approved  a  Long  Term  Incentive  Plan 
designed to increase the motivation of staff and to create a stronger link between increasing shareholder value and employee award. 
The details of these schemes are set out on pages 10 to 11. 

Consequences of Performance on Shareholder Wealth 
In  considering  the  Group’s  performance  and  benefits  for  shareholder  wealth,  the  Nomination  and  Remuneration  committee  have 
regard to the following indices in respect of the current financial period and the previous four financial years.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

During  2012,  the  Board  implemented  a  new  loan-funded  share  plan  for  Executives  located  in  Australia,  following  shareholder 
approval in May 2012.  The limited recourse loans to acquire shares are issued to Executives and the ability to exercise the shares is 
conditional on the Group achieving the pre-determined performance criteria. There were $500,000 of loan-funded shares issued to 
Executives in the financial year ended 30th June 2015 and the table below sets out the details of the loan-funded share plan: 

Instrument 

Each loan-funded share represents an entitlement to one ordinary share. 

Limited recourse loan 

The  company  is  providing  interest-free,  limited  recourse  loans  to  Executives  to  acquire  shares.  
The limited recourse loan means that if the shares do not vest for any reason or the value of the 
shares is less than the outstanding loan value when it is required to be repaid, the participant’s 
liability is limited to the value of the shares.

Vicente’s  employment  agreement,  signed  on  17  October  2014,  is  a  rolling  agreement  which  is  unlimited  in  term  but  capable  of 
termination  with  six  months  notice  by  either  party.    All  other  employment  agreements  are  unlimited  in  term  but  capable  of 
termination with one to three months notice by either the Company or the Executive.  The Company can make a payment in lieu of 
notice of an amount equal to the monthly instalment of basic salary for any unexpired period of notice. 

In the event of retrenchment, the Executives listed in the table on page 12 are entitled to the payment provided for in the service 
agreement, where applicable. The employment of the Executives may be terminated by the Company without notice by payment in 
lieu of notice. The service agreements also contain confidentiality and restraint of trade clauses.

(a)  The % forfeited, lapsed or expired in the year represents the reduction from the maximum number of loan-funded shares or 
options available to vest due to either  the performance conditions attached to the loan-funded shares or options not being 
met or the departure of the Executive from the Group.

(a)  The  value  of  loan-funded  shares  granted  in  the  period  is  the  fair  value  of  the  loan-funded  shares  calculated  at  grant  date 

using a Monte-Carlo option-pricing model. This total amount is allocated to remuneration over the vesting period. 

(b)  The  value  of  options  exercised  during  the  period  is  calculated  as  the  market  price  of  shares  of  the  Company  on  the 
Australian Securities Exchange as at close of trading on the date the options were exercised after deducting the price paid to 
exercise the option. 

E.  Share-Based Compensation (shares) 

There were no shares granted to Key Management Personnel during the reporting period.  

No shares were granted since the end of the financial period.

The Board of Directors of ThinkSmart Limited is responsible for and committed to ensuring that the Company complies with the 
ASX  Corporate  Governance  Council’s  Guide  “Corporate  Governance  Principles  and  Recommendations”.  A  copy  of  the 
Company’s Corporate Governance policy can be found at the Company’s website www.thinksmartworld.com.  

Indemnification and Insurance

the Company or of any related body corporate against a liability incurred by such an officer or Director. 

Environmental Regulation 

The Group’s operations are not subject to any significant environmental regulation under both Commonwealth and State legislation 
in relation to its activities. 

NON-AUDIT SERVICES 

During the period KPMG, the Company auditor, has performed certain other services in addition to their statutory duties. 

The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the period by the auditor is satisfied that the provision of those 
non-audit  services  during  the  year  is  compatible  with,  and  did  not  compromise,  the  auditor  independence  requirements  of  the 
Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 

•  All non-audit services are subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed 

by the Audit and Risk Committee to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and 

•  The non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 
110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting 
in a management or decision making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks 
and rewards. 

Details of the amounts paid to the auditor of the Group, KPMG, and its related practices for audit and non-audit services provided 
during the year are set out below.

THINKSMART LIMITED 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  General Information 

ThinkSmart Limited (the “Company” or “ThinkSmart”) is a publicly listed company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The 
consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the twelve months ended 30 June 2015 comprise of the Company 
and its subsidiaries (the “Group”). The Group is a for profit entity and its principal activity during the period was the provision of 
lease and rental financing services in the UK. The address of the Company’s registered office is Suite 5, 531 Hay Street, Subiaco, 
West Perth, WA 6008 and further information can be found at www.thinksmartworld.com.  

2.  Basis of Preparation 

(a)  Statement of compliance 

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

The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 25 August 2015. 

(b)  Basis of measurement 

The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for derivative financial instruments measured at fair 
value. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian 
Dollars unless otherwise noted. 

(c)  Discontinued operations 

Discontinued  operations  are  a  component  of  the  Group’s  business,  the  operations  and  cash  flows  of  which  can  be  clearly 
distinguished from the rest of the Group and which: 

- 
- 
- 

represent a separate major line of business or geographical area of operation; 
is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operation; or 
is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to re-sale. 

Classification as a discontinued operation occurs at the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified 
as held-for-sale. 

When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of profit or loss and OCI is re-presented as 
if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative year.  

(d)  Functional and presentation currency 

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

ThinkSmart is a Group of the kind referred to in ASIC Class Order 98/100 dated 10 July 1998, as varied by Class Order 05/641 
dated 28 July 2005 and Class Order 06/51 dated 31 January 2006. In accordance with those class orders, amounts in the financial 
statements and the directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated. 

(e)  Changes in accounting policies 

The  accounting  policies  applied  by  the  consolidated  entity  in  this  financial  report  are  consistent  with  those  applied  by  the 
consolidated entity in its consolidated financial report as at and for the period ended 30 June 2014 other than the following: 

Share-based payments 
The  grant  date  fair  value  of  share-based  payment  awards  granted  to  employees  is  recognised  as  an  employee  expense  over  the 
period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards, with a corresponding increase in equity. Previously this 
increase in equity was held in a separate reserve named ‘Equity settled employee benefits reserve’. AASB 2 allows share based 
payment transactions to be presented within a separate reserve or within retained earnings. The Group has decided to present the 
share  based  payment  transactions  within  retained  earnings  and  therefore  in  accordance  with  AASB  108  have  retrospectively 
applied  this  change  with  amounts  previously  recorded  in  ‘Equity  settled  employee  benefits  reserve’  totalling  $1,141,000  at  1 
January 2014 transferred to ‘Accumulated Profit’.

THINKSMART LIMITED 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

(f)  Change of Financial Year End  

The Group changed its financial year end from 31 December to 30 June effective 1 January 2014. As a result of the change, the 
financial report for the Group at 30 June 2015 reflects the results for the twelve months ended 30 June 2015. The comparative 
period disclosures are for the six months ended 30 June 2014. 

(g)  Accounting policies available for early adoption not yet adopted 
A  number  of  new  standards  and  interpretations  are  effective  for  annual  periods  beginning  after  1  July  2015  and  have  not  been 
applied in preparing this financial report. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early and the extent of the impact has 
not been determined.

Revenue from 
Contracts with 
Customers 

AASB 9 includes revised guidance on 
the classification and measurement of 
financial assets, including a new 
expected credit loss model for 
calculating impairment, and 
supplements the new general hedge 
accounting requirements previously 
published.  

(a)  These amendments arise from the 
issuance of AASB 9 Financial 
Instruments that set out requirements 
for the classification and measurement 
of financial assets. 
(b)  This Standard shall be applied 
when AASB 9 is applied. 

The application of the existing versions 
of AASB 9 (December 2009 and 
December 2010, including the hedging 
amendments made in December 2013) 
from 1 February 2015 is limited to 
entities that have already early adopted 
them. 

The standard contains a single model 
that applies to contracts with customers 
and two approaches to recognising 
revenue: at a point in time or over time. 
The model features a contract-based 
five-step analysis of transactions to 
determine whether, how much and 
when revenue is recognised.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

3. 

Significant Accounting Policies  

The  accounting  policies  set  out  below  have  been  applied  consistently  to  all  periods  presented  in  these  consolidated  financial 
statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities. 

(a)  Basis of consolidation 

(i)  Subsidiaries 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  financial  statements  of  the  company  and  entities  controlled  by  the 
company  (its  subsidiaries).  The  Group  controls  an  entity  when  it  is  exposed  to,  or  has  rights  to,  variable  returns  from  its 
involvement  with  the  entity  and  has  the  ability  to  affect  those  returns  through  its  power  over  the  entity.  The  results  of 
subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated statement of profit and loss from the 
effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. The accounting policies of subsidiaries 
have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group. 

(ii)  Transactions eliminated on consolidation 

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line 
with those by other members of the Group.  All intra-group balances, transactions, income and expenses are eliminated in 
full on consolidation.  

(b)  Business combinations 

For every business combination, the Group identifies the acquirer, which is the combining entity that obtains control of the other 
combining entities or businesses.  The acquisition date is the date on which control is transferred to the acquirer.  Judgement is 
applied in determining the acquisition date and determining whether control is transferred from one party to another. 

Measuring goodwill 
The  Group  measures  goodwill  as  the  fair  value  of  consideration  transferred  including  the  recognised  amount  of  any  non-
controlling  interest  in  the  acquiree,  less  the  net  recognised  amount  (generally  fair  value)  of  the  identifiable  assets  acquired  and 
liabilities assumed, all measured as of the acquisition date. 

Consideration transferred includes the fair values of the asset transferred, liabilities incurred by the Group to the previous owners 
of the acquiree, and equity interests issued by the Group. Consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent 
consideration and share-based payment awards of the acquiree that are replaced mandatorily in the business combination. 

(c)  Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash  comprises  cash  on  hand  and  demand  deposits.  Cash  equivalents  are  short-term,  highly  liquid  investments  that  are  readily 
converted to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. 

Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet.

(d)  Plant and equipment 

Recognition and measurement 
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. 
Cost  includes  expenditure  that  is  directly  attributable  to  the  acquisition  of  the  asset.  Purchased  software  that  is  integral  to  the 
functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment. 

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives they are accounted for as separate items (major 
components) of property, plant and equipment. 

The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal 
with the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment, and is recognised net within other income/other expenses in profit 
or loss.  

Depreciation 
Depreciation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Significant components of individual assets are assessed and if 
a component has a useful life that is different from the remainder of the asset, that component is depreciated separately.  

Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of 
property, plant and equipment.  
The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation: 

- 
- 
- 

Office furniture, fittings, equipment and computers 
Leasehold improvements 
Leased computer equipment and software 

3 to 5 years 
the lease term  
3 to 5 years 

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date. 

(e)  Trade and other payables 

Trade payables are recognised when the consolidated entity becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase 
of goods and services.  

(f)  Financial instruments 

(i)  Non-derivative financial assets 
The Group initially recognises loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets 
(including  assets  designated  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss)  are  recognised  initially  on  the  trade  date  at  which  the  Group 
becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

The  Group  derecognises  a  financial  asset  when  the  contractual  rights  to  the  cash  flows  from  the  asset  expire,  or  it  transfers  the 
right to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of 
ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group 
is recognised as a separate asset or liability. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, 
the  Group  has  a  legal  right  to  offset  the  amounts  and  intends  either  to  settle  on  a  net  basis  or  to  realise  the  asset  and  settle  the 
liability simultaneously. 

Investments 
Investments  are  recognised  and  derecognised  on  trade  date  where  purchase  or  sale  of  an  investment  is  under a  contract  whose 
terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at 
fair  value  net  of  transaction  costs.  Subsequent  to  initial  recognition,  investments  in  subsidiaries  are  measured  at  cost  in  the 
company  financial  statements,  net  of  accumulated  impairment  losses.  Other  financial  assets  are  classified  into  the  following 
specified  categories:  financial  assets  at  ‘fair  value  through  profit  and  loss’,  ‘held-to-maturity’  investments,  ‘available-for-sale’ 
financial  assets  and  ‘loans  and  receivables’.  The  classification  depends  on  the  nature  and  purpose  of  the  financial  assets  and  is 
determined at the time of initial recognition.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Lease receivables 
The  Group  has  entered  into  financing  transactions  with  customers  and  has  classified  its  leases  as  finance  leases  for  accounting 
purposes.  Under  a  finance  lease,  substantially  all  the  risks  and  benefits  incidental  to  the  ownership  of  the  leased  asset  are 
transferred by the lessor to the lessee. The Group recognises at the beginning of the lease term an asset at an amount equal to the 
aggregate of the present value (discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease) of the minimum lease payments and an estimate 
of the value of any unguaranteed residual value expected to accrue to the benefit of the Group at the end of the lease term. This 
asset represents the Group’s net investment in the lease.  

Unearned interest 
Unearned interest on leases and other receivables is brought to account over the life of the lease contract based on the interest 
rate implicit in the lease using the effective interest rate method. 

Initial direct transaction income and costs 
Initial direct income/costs or directly attributable, incremental transaction income/costs incurred in the origination of leases 
are  included  as  part  of  receivables  in  the  balance  sheet  and  are  amortised  in  the  calculation  of  lease  income  and  interest 
income. 

Allowance for losses 
The  collectability  of  lease  receivables  is  assessed  on  an  ongoing basis.  A  provision  is  made  for  losses  based  on  historical 
rates of arrears and the current delinquency position of the portfolio (refer note 3(f)(iii)). 

Effective interest method 
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating interest income over 
the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected 
life of the financial asset or, where appropriate, a shorter period. 

Insurance prepayment 
In  respect  to  the  UK  operations,  when  an  equipment  insurance  policy  is  issued  by  Allianz  to  RentSmart  Limited’s  customers, 
RentSmart  Limited  pays  the  customer’s  insurance  premium  to  Allianz.  RentSmart  Limited  subsequently  collects  the  insurance 
premium from the customer on a monthly basis over the life of the rental agreement. Where a policy is cancelled, the unexpired 
premiums are refunded to RentSmart Limited. 

(ii)  Non-derivative financial liabilities 
The Group initially recognises debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities on the date that they are originated. The  Group 
derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire. 

Financial  liabilities  are  recognised  initially  at  fair  value  plus  any  directly  attributable  transaction  costs.  Subsequent  to  initial 
recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.  

Transaction  costs  consist  of  legal  and  other  costs  that  are  incurred  in  connection  with  the  borrowing  of  funds.  These  costs  are 
capitalised and then amortised over the life of the loan.

THINKSMART LIMITED 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Financial guarantee contracts 
Financial  guarantees  issued  by  the  Group  are  recognised  as  financial  liabilities  at  the  date  the  guarantee  is  issued.  Liabilities 
arising  from  financial  guarantee  contracts,  including  where  applicable,  guarantees  of  subsidiaries  through  deeds  of  cross 
guarantee,  are  initially  recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  at  the  higher  of  the  amount  of  projected  future  losses  and  the 
amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation. 

The fair value of the financial guarantee is determined by way of calculating the present value of the difference in net cash flows 
between the contractual payments under the debt instrument and the payments that would be required without the guarantee, or the 
estimated amount that would be payable to a third party for assuming the obligation. 

Any  increase  in  the  liability  relating  to  financial  guarantees  is  recognised  in  profit  and  loss.  Any  liability  remaining  is 
derecognised in profit and loss when the guarantee is discharged, cancelled or expires. 

(iii)  Impairment of assets 
Financial assets, including finance lease receivables and loan receivables 
A  financial  asset  is  assessed  at  each  reporting  date  to  determine  whether  there  is  any  objective  evidence  that  it  is  impaired.  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. 

In  assessing  collective  impairment,  the  Group  uses  modelling  of  historical  trends  of  the  probability  of  defaults,  timing  of 
recoveries and the amount of loss incurred. Impairment losses on assets carried at amortised cost are measured as the difference 
between  the  carrying  amount  of  the  financial  assets  and  the  present  value  of  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  discounted  at  the 
assets original effective 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 and loss.  

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 and loss.  

Non-financial assets 
The  carrying  amounts  of  the  Group’s  non-financial  assets,  other  than  inventories  and  deferred  tax  assets,  are  reviewed  at  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.  For  goodwill  and  intangible  assets  that  have  indefinite  lives  or  that  are  not  yet  available  for  use,  the 
recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date. 

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. 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 the purpose of impairment 
testing,  assets  are  grouped  together  into  the  smallest  group  of  assets  that  generates  cash  inflows  from  continuing  use  that  are 
largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit”). The goodwill acquired in a 
business combination, for the purpose of impairment testing, is allocated to cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from 
the synergies of the combination. 

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. 
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated 
first to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (groups of units) on a pro rata basis. 

An  impairment  loss  in  respect  of  goodwill  is  not  reversed.  In  respect  of  other  assets,  impairment  losses  recognised  in  the  prior 
periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss 
is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed 
only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of 
depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

(g) 

Intangible assets 

Intellectual property 
Intellectual  property  is  recorded  at  the  cost  of  acquisition  over  the  fair  value  of  the  identifiable  net  assets  acquired,  and  is 
amortised on a straight line basis over 20 years. 

Inertia Contracts 
The  Group  recognises  an  intangible  asset  arising  if  it  has  an  unconditional  contractual  right  to  receive  income  arising  from 
equipment and rights to the hiring agreement at the end of term. This inertia contract is measured at fair value at the inception of 
the hiring agreement, and is based on discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the sale or hire of the assets at the end of 
the term. Subsequent to initial recognition the intangible asset is measured at cost.  Amortisation is based on cost less estimated 
residual  value.  Individual  intangible  assets  are  assessed  at  each  reporting  period  for  impairment.  Impaired  contracts  are  offset 
against any unamortised deferred service income with the remainder recognised in profit and loss.   

At  the  end  of  the  hiring  term  the  intangible  asset  is  derecognised  and  the  Group  recognises  the  equipment  as  inventory  at  the 
corresponding value. 

Contract Rights 
The  contractual  rights  obtained  by  the  Group  under  financing  agreements  entered  into  with  its  funding  partners  and  operating 
agreements with its retail partners constitute intangible assets with finite useful lives. These contract rights are recognised initially 
at cost and amortised over their expected useful lives. In relation to funder contact rights, the expected useful life is the earlier of 
the  initial  contract  term  or  expected  period  until  facility  limit  is  reached.  At  each  reporting  date  a  review  for  indicators  of 
impairment is conducted. 

Software development 
Software  development  predominantly  relates  to  the  development  of  the  Group’s  proprietary  SmartCheck  credit  application 
processing software system. Software development costs are capitalised only up to the point when the software has been tested and 
is ready for use in the manner intended by management.  

Software development expenditure is capitalised  only if the development costs can be measured reliably, the product process is 
technically  and  commercially  feasible,  future  economic  benefits  are  probable,  and  the  Group  intends  to  and  has  sufficient 
resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalised includes the cost of direct labour and 
overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use. 

The intangible asset is amortised on a straight line basis over its estimated useful life, which is between 3 and 5 years. Capitalised 
software development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. 

(h)  Goodwill 

Goodwill  acquired  in  a  business  combination  is  initially  measured  at  its  cost,  being  the  excess  of  the  cost  of  the  business 
combination  over  the  acquirer’s  interest  in  the  net  fair  value  of  the  identifiable  assets,  liabilities  and  contingent  liabilities 
recognised. Goodwill is subsequently measured at its cost less any impairment losses. 

For  the  purpose  of  impairment  testing,  goodwill  is  allocated  to  each  of  the  Group’s  cash  generating  units  (CGUs)  or  groups  of 
CGUs,  expected  to  benefit  from  the  synergies  of  the  business  combination.  CGUs  (or  groups  of  CGUs)  to  which  goodwill  has 
been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill 
might be impaired. 

If the recoverable amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) is less than the carrying amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs), the 
impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (or group of CGUs) and 
then to the other assets of the CGU (or group of CGUs) pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU (or 
CGUs).  The  impairment  loss  recognised  for  goodwill  is  recognised  immediately  in  the  profit  or  loss  and  is  not  reversed  in  the 
subsequent period. 

On  disposal  of  an  operation  within  a  CGU,  the  attributable  goodwill  is  included  in  the  determination  of  the  profit  or  loss  of 
disposal on the operation.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

(i)  Employee benefits 

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries and annual leave when it is probable 
that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably. 

The Group’s net obligation in respect of long service leave is the amount of future benefit that employees 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.  

Liabilities recognised in respect of employee benefits, which are expected to be settled within 12 months, are measured at their 
nominal values, using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.  

Liabilities recognised in respect of employee benefits, which are not expected to be settled within 12 months, are measured at their 
present value of the estimated future cash flows to be made by the Group. 

The Group pays defined contributions for post-employment benefit into a separate entity. Obligations for contributions to defined 
contribution pension plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the period during which services are 
rendered by employees. 

Termination benefits are recognised as an expense when the Group is committed, it is probable that settlement will be required, 
and they are capable of being reliably measured. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after the reporting date, then they are 
discounted to their present value. 

Share-based payments 
The  grant  date  fair  value  of  share-based  payment  awards  granted  to  employees  is  recognised  as  an  employee  expense,  with  a 
corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount 
recognised  as  an  expense  is  adjusted  to  reflect  the  number  of  awards  for  which  the  related  service  and  non-market  vesting 
conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that 
do meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-
vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-
up for differences between expected and actual outcomes. 

(j) 

Inventories 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less 
all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make use for sale. 

(k)  Revenue recognition 

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is recognised to the extent that it is probable 
that  the  economic  benefits will  flow  to  the  entity  and  the  revenue  can  be  reliably  measured.  The  following  specific  recognition 
criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: 

Finance lease income 
Finance lease income is recognised on those leases originated by the Group where the Group, rather than a third party financier, is 
the lessor. Finance lease income is recognised on the effective interest rate method at the constant rate of return which amortises 
over its economic life, the lease asset down to the estimate of any unguaranteed residual value that is expected to be accrued to the 
Group at the end of the lease. 

Commission income  
Commission receivable from funders is recognised at the time finance approval is given to the customer, adjusted for an allowance 
for loans not expected to proceed to a contract by the funder.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Residual interest in equipment (inertia income) 
• 

Secondary rental income 
Rental  income  from  extended  rental  assets  is  recognised  when  receivable  usually  on  a  monthly  basis.  No  ongoing  rental 
income is brought to account in respect of the unexpired rental contracts. 
Income earned from sale of equipment 
Proceeds  from  the  sale  of  rental  assets  are  brought  to  account  at  the  time  of  the  sale  to  the  extent  not  already  recognised 
through Finance lease income. 

• 

Insurance income 
Insurance income includes commissions received on insurance policies issued by third party insurers to cover theft and damage of 
rental equipment. In the UK, insurance income is recognised at fair value of the future payments receivable as substantially all of 
the  services  to  earn  that  revenue  are  completed  upfront.  The  revenue  recognition  policy  for  the  Australian  insurance  income  is 
consistent with the treatment of commission income from funders. 

Interest income and expense 
Interest  income  and  expense  for  all  interest  bearing  financial  instruments  is  recognised  in  the  profit  and  loss  account  using  the 
effective interest rates of the financial assets or liabilities to which they relate. 

The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life 
of  the  financial  asset  or  financial  liability.   When  calculating  the  effective  interest  rate  the  Group  includes  all  amounts  paid  or 
received by the Group which are considered to be an integral part of the effective interest rate, including merchant fees received 
and rebates paid. 

Deferred service income 
Income arising on recognition of any intangible inertia asset at the commencement of the lease is deferred and recognised over the 
lease term on a straight line basis as the services are rendered. 

(l)  Share capital 

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

(m)  Income tax 

Current tax 
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax 
loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. 
Current tax payable for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability to the extent that it is unpaid.  Carried forward tax 
recoverable on tax losses is recognised as a deferred tax asset where it is probably that future taxable profit will be available to 
offset in future periods.   

Deferred tax 
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between 
the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items. 

In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the 
extent  that  it  is  probable  that  sufficient  taxable  amounts  will  be  available  against  which  deductible  temporary  differences  or 
unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary 
differences  giving  rise  to  them  arise  from  the  initial  recognition  of  assets  and  liabilities  (other  than  as  a  result  of  a  business 
combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, a deferred tax liability is not recognised in 
relation to taxable temporary differences arising from goodwill. 

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures 
except  where  the  Group  is  able  to  control  the  reversal  of  the  temporary  differences  and  it  is  probable  that  the  temporary 
differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Deferred  tax  assets  arising  from  deductible  temporary  differences  associated  with  these  investments  and  interests  are  only 
recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the 
temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  measured  at  the  tax  rates  that  are  expected  to  apply  to  the  period(s)  when  the  asset  and 
liability  giving  rise  to  them  are  realised  or  settled,  based  on  tax  rates  (and  tax  laws)  that  have  been  enacted  or  substantively 
enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow 
from  the  manner  in  which  the  Consolidated  Entity  expects,  at the  reporting  date,  to  recover  or  settle  the  carrying  amount  of  its 
assets and liabilities. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  when  they  relate  to  income  taxes  levied  by  the  same  taxation  authority  and  the 
Company/Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. 

Current and deferred tax for the period 
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the statement of profit and loss, except when it relates to items 
credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it arises from 
the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill or excess 
purchase consideration. 

(n)  Goods and services tax 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST/VAT) except: 

(i)  where the amount of GST/VAT incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of 

acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; and 
receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST/VAT. 

(ii) 

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables. 

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis.  The GST/VAT component of cash flows arising from 
investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash 
flows. 

(o)  Foreign currency transactions 

Foreign currency transactions 
Transactions  in  foreign  currencies  are  translated  to  the  respective  functional  currencies  of  Group  entities  at  exchange  rates 
prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date 
are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is 
the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and 
payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period. 

Non-monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  that  are  measured  at  fair  value  are  retranslated  to  the 
functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency 
that are measured in terms of historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency 
differences arising on retranslation are presented in profit or loss on a net basis, except for differences arising on the retranslation 
of a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation that is effective, which are recognised in 
other comprehensive income.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Foreign operations 
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated 
to the functional currency at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to 
Australian dollars at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. 

Foreign  currency  differences  are  recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income,  and  presented  in  the  foreign  currency  translation 
reserve  in  equity.  However,  if  the  operation  is  not  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  then  the  relevant  proportionate  share  of  the 
translation  difference  is  allocated  to  the  non-controlling  interests.  When  a  foreign  operation  is  disposed  of  such  that  control, 
significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is 
reclassified to the profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of only part of its interest in a 
subsidiary  that  includes  a  foreign  operation  while  retaining  control,  the  relevant  proportion  of  the  cumulative  amount  is 
reattributed to non-controlling interests. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture 
that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative 
amount is classified to profit or loss.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding any costs of 
servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. 

Diluted earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after 
income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average 
number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares. 

(q)  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 
estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations. 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 the risks specific to the liability. 

(r)  Lease payments 

Payments  made  under  operating  leases  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  on  a  straight  line  basis  over  the  term  of  the  lease.  Lease 
incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease. 

Minimum  lease  payments  made  under  finance  leases  are  apportioned  between  the  finance  expense  and  the  reduction  of  the 
outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant period rate 
of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. 

Contingent lease payments are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over the remaining term of the lease when 
the contingency no longer exists and the lease adjustments are known.  

(s)  Segment reporting 

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur 
expenses,  including  revenues  and  expenses  that  relate  to  transactions  with  any  of  the  Group’s  other  components.  All  operating 
segments’ operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s Chief Executive Officer to make decisions about resources to be 
allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.  

Segment results, assets and liabilities include items attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable 
basis. Unallocated items compromise mainly loans and borrowings and related expenses, and head office expenses, and income 
tax assets and liabilities.  

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire property, plant and equipment, and intangible 
assets other than goodwill.

(t)  Measurement of fair values 

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-
financial assets and liabilities. 

The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. This includes a valuation team that 
has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values, and reports directly to 
the CFO. 

The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such 
as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then the valuation team assesses the evidence obtained from 
the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of IFRS, including the level in the fair value 
hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified. 

Significant valuation issues are reported to the Audit and Risk Committee. 

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are 
categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows: 

• 
• 

• 

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. 
as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). 
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). 

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability might be categorised in different levels of the fair value 
hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest 
level input that is significant to the entire measurement. 

The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the 
change has occurred. 

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in the following notes: 

• 
• 
• 

Note 13 – Intangible inertia assets; 
Note 19(b)(i) – Share based payment transactions; 
Note 25(b) – Financial instruments. 

4.  Critical accounting estimates and judgements 

The  preparation  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements  in  conforming  with  IFRS  requires  management  to  make  judgements, 
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income 
and expenses.  

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

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions 
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom 
equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the 
carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial period are discussed below: 

• 
• 
• 
• 

Note 13  -  fair value at inception of inertia intangible assets and recoverable amount; 
Note 15  -  measurement of the recoverable amount of cash generating units containing goodwill; 
Note 17  -  measurement of deferred services income; 
Note 19(b)(i) - measurement of share-based payments.

Financial Risk Management 

Overview 
The Group has exposure to the following risks from the use of financial instruments:  

Credit risk 
Liquidity risk 

• 
• 
•  Market risk 
• 

Operational risk 

This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, the objectives, policies and processes  for 
measuring and managing financial risks, and the management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout 
this financial report. 

The  Board  of  Directors  has  overall  responsibility  for  the  establishment  and  oversight  of  the  risk  management  framework.  The 
Board  has  established  the  Audit  and  Risk  Management  Committee,  which  is  responsible  for  developing  and  monitoring  risk 
management policies. The Committee reports to the Board of Directors on its activities. 

Risk  management  policies  are  established  to  identify  and  analyse  the  risks  faced  by  the  Group,  to  set  appropriate  limits  and 
controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect the 
changes  in  market  conditions  and  the  Group’s  activities.  The  Audit  and  Risk  Committee  oversees  how  management  monitors 
compliance  with  the  Group’s  risk  management  policies  and  procedures  and  reviews  the  adequacy  of  the  risk  management 
framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group.  

Credit Risk 
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty or customer will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to 
the  Group.  The  Group’s  UK  operations  have  adopted  a  policy  of  only  dealing  with  credit  worthy  counterparties  as  a  means  of 
mitigating  the  risk  of  financial  loss  from  defaults.  The  Chief  Financial  Officer  and  Group  Financial  Controller  have  day  to  day 
responsibility  for  managing  credit  risk  within  the  risk  appetite  of  the  Board.  Appropriate  oversight  occurs  via  monthly  credit 
performance reporting to management and the Board. 

The UK operations have an obligation to meet the cost of future bad debts incurred by its funders. The funder deposits discussed 
below  represent  security  for  that  credit  exposure  and  are  recorded  net  of  the  Group’s  estimate  of  this  credit  risk.  Further 
information is provided in Note 25.   

To manage credit risk in relation to its customers, UK employs a sophisticated credit assessment and fraud minimisation process 
delivered through its patented QuickSmart system. The credit underwriting system uses a combination of credit scoring and credit 
bureau reports as well as electronic identity verification and a review of an applicant’s details against a fraud database. The credit 
policy is developed and applied by the General Manager of Credit and Operations who monitors ongoing credit performance on 
different cohorts of customer contracts. UK has a specialist collections function which manages all delinquent accounts. 

Credit risk exposure to funder deposits are more concentrated, however the counterparties are regulated banking institutions and 
the credit risk exposure is assessed as low. UK closely monitors the credit risk associated with each funder deposit counterparty.   

Liquidity risk 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.  The Group’s approach to 
managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under 
both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. 

The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserve facilities by continuously reviewing its facilities 
and cash flows. 

The  Group  ensures  that  it  has  sufficient  cash  on  demand  to  meet  expected  operational  expenses  and  financing  subordination 
requirements. In addition, the Group maintains the operational facilities which is shown in Note 18.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

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 the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and 
control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising return. 

Currency risk 
The  Group  is  exposed  to  currency  risk  on  sales,  purchases  and  borrowings  that  are  denominated  in  a  currency  other  than  the 
respective functional currencies of the Group entities, primarily the Australian dollar, Sterling and Euro. 

Interest  on  borrowings  is  denominated  in  currencies  that  match  the  cash  flows  generated  by  the  underlying  operations  of  the 
Group. This provides an economic hedge and no derivatives are entered into.  

Liabilities  incurred  in  each  respective  geographical  territory  are  paid  for  by  the  cash  flows  of  the  functional  currency  of  that 
territory.    Exposures  for  singular  transactions  greater  than  $50,000  are  considered  for  hedging  by  management,  with  forward 
exchange  contracts  to  mitigate  exchange  rate  risk  and  are  considered  separately  as  they  arise.  The  consolidated  entity  has  no 
forward exchange contracts as at reporting date (2014: nil). 

In  respect  of  other  monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies,  management  ensures  that  the  Group’s  net 
exposure is kept to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address the short 
term imbalances (refer to Note 25 for further information). 

Interest rate risk 
The Group has $4.1m corporate borrowings as at 30 June 2015 (30 June 2014: nil). Exposure to interest rate risk on any future 
corporate  borrowings  will  be  assessed  by  the  Board  and  where  appropriate,  the  exposure  to  movement  in  interest  rates  may  be 
hedged by entering into interest rate swaps, when considered appropriate by the management and the Board. As at 30 June 2015 
there were no contracts relating to interest rate swaps. 

Operational risk 
Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes associated with the Group’s processes, 
personnel,  technology  and  infrastructure,  and  from  external  factors  other  than  credit,  market  and  liquidity  risks  such  as  those 
arising  from  legal  and  regulatory  requirements  and  generally  accepted  standards  of  corporate  behaviour.  Operational  risks  arise 
from all of the Group’s operations. 

The primary responsibility for the development and implementation of controls to address operational risk is assigned to senior 
management  within  each  business  unit.  This  responsibility  is  supported  by  the  development  of  overall  group  standards  for  the 
management of operational risk in the following areas: 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

• 
• 

Requirements for appropriate segregation of duties, including the independent authorisation of transactions 
Requirements for the reconciliation and monitoring of transactions 
Compliance with regulatory and other legal requirements 
Documentation of controls and procedures 
Requirements for the periodic assessment of operational risks faced, and the adequacy of controls and procedures to address 
the risks identified 
Ethical and business standards 
Risk mitigation, including insurance where this is effective

Capital management 
The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain 
future  development  of  the  business.    Management  aims  to  maintain  a  capital  structure  that  ensures  the  lowest  cost  of  capital 
available to the Group. Management constantly reviews the capital structure to ensure an increasing return on assets.  

The Group’s debt-to-adjusted capital ratio at the end of the reporting period was as follows: 

Total liabilities 
Less cash and cash equivalents 
Net debt/(Net cash)

For the purposes of capital management, capital consists of share capital, reserves and retained earnings.   

The Board assesses the Group’s ability to pay dividends from time to time.  During the financial period to 30 June 2015, the Board 
declared and paid a special dividend composing of a fully franked amount at 4 cents per share and an unfranked amount at 8 cents 
per share, was declared on 27 January 2015 and paid on 30 January 2015 (refer to Note 19(c)).    

During  the  period  to  30  June  2015  63,006,935  shares  were  purchased  and  cancelled  as  part  of  an  on  market  and  off  market 
buyback scheme at a cost of $19,714,956 (see note 19(a)).

(i) 

Impairment loss relates to the write off where the related contract has early terminated principally due to contract default. 

Inertia contract assets acquired are measured at fair value based on the discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the sale 
or hire of the assets at the end of the term. This measurement inherently introduces estimation uncertainty. The Group continually 
assesses  current  inertia  proceeds  and  includes  these  in  the  estimation  of  inertia  assets  acquired.    As  such  the  fair  value 
measurement for inertia contract assets has been categorised as Level 3 fair value.   

The following tables show the valuation techniques used in measuring Level 3 fair values, as well as the significant unobservable 
inputs used.

Impairment testing for cash-generating units containing goodwill 

For  the  purpose  of  impairment  testing,  goodwill  is  allocated  to  the  UK  segment  as  disclosed  in  Note  22,  which  represents  the 
lowest  level  within  the  Group  at  which  goodwill  is  monitored  for  internal  management  purposes.  The  goodwill  arose  on  the 
acquisition of RentSmart Limited. 

The  recoverable  amount  of  the  UK  cash-generating  unit  was  based  on  its  value  in  use  using  business  plan  assumptions  and  a 
discount rate approximating the weighted average cost of capital of the group and hence includes inherent estimation uncertainty. 
The recoverable amount of the unit was determined to be significantly higher than the carrying amount, therefore no impairment 
of goodwill is required, and no further sensitivity analysis is considered necessary. 

Value in use is determined by discounting the future cash flows generated from the continuing use of the unit and was based on 
the following key assumptions: 

•  Cash  flows  were  projected  based  on  the  forecast  operating  results  for  the  12  months  to  30  June  2016  and  management 

estimates for 2017 to 2021. 

•  A post tax discount rate of 10.43% (13.20% pre-tax) was applied in determining the recoverable amount of the unit.

During the period no employee share options or loan-funded shares were exercised (2014: nil).   

Ordinary Shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up the Company in proportion to the 
number of and amount paid on the Shares held. 

On a show of hands, every holder of Ordinary Shares present in the meeting in person or by proxy is entitled to one vote, and upon 
a poll each Share is entitled to one vote. The Company does not have authorised capital or par value in respect to its issued shares. 

(b)(i)  Share options – employee options and loan-funded shares 

The Company has an ownership-based remuneration scheme for Executives and senior employees. Each employee share option 
converts to one ordinary share of ThinkSmart Limited on exercise and payment of the exercise price.  Each employee loan-funded 
share  converts  to  one  ordinary  share  of  ThinkSmart  Limited  on  exercise  and  repayment  of  the  loan.  The  options  carry  neither 
rights or dividends nor voting rights.  The loan-funded shares carry voting and rights to dividends.

Measurement of fair values 
The fair value of employee share options is measured using a binomial model and loan-funded shares are measured using a Monte-
Carlo simulation model.  

The  weighted  average  fair  value  of  the  share  options  granted  in  the  period  to  30  June  2015  is  $0.09  (period  to  30  June  2014: 
$0.129).  Options  and  loan-funded  shares  were  priced  using  a  monte-carlo  pricing  model.  Expected  volatility  is  based  on  the 
historic volatility of the market price of the Company’s share and the mean reversion tendency of volatilities.  

Other measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, weighted average expected 
life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free 
interest  rate  (based  on  government  bonds).  Service  and  non-market  performance  conditions  attached  to  the  transactions  are  not 
taken into account in determining fair value.

22.  Segment Information 

The Group has three reportable segments which comprise the Group’s two core business units (UK and its discontinued segment, 
Australia), with the “other” segment presented composing low volume territories.  The head office corporate function composes

reportable segments is as follows: 

UK: 
-  ThinkSmart Europe Ltd 
-  RentSmart Ltd 
-  ThinkSmart Insurance Services Administration Ltd 
-  ThinkSmart Financial Services Ltd 

Other: 
-  SmartCheck Finance Spain SL

Under the terms of the UK current funding agreement with Secure Trust Bank, the group is obliged to purchase delinquent leases 
from the funder at the funded amount.  As at 30 June 2015, the total funded amount of all leases funded by the funder is $52.182m 
(2014:  $43.606m).  The  group  has  entered  into  a  Credit  Default  Swap  ("CDS")  with  STB  for  which  it  has  provided  a  deposit  of 
$8.575m (2014: $7.401m) as collateral for the obligation under the CDS. The group has recognised a provision against this deposit 
of  $5.269m  (2014:  $3.617m)  being  its  estimate  of  the  funded  amount  of  these  leases  that  are  likely  to  become  delinquent  in  the 
future. The group estimates this amount based on historical loss experience for assets with similar characteristics. 

The total balance of deposits recognised with funders, net of associated provisions and financial guarantee contracts is $3.306m  
(2014: $3.784m).

shown  below  (2014:  1%  increase  $0.429m,  1%  decrease  $0.429m).  This  analysis  assumes  that  all  other  factors  remain  constant 
including foreign currency rates.

The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements are not materially different to 
their fair values. 

Fair value hierarchy 

The financial instruments carried at fair value have been classified by valuation method. 

The different levels have been defined as follows: 

• 
• 

• 

Level 1:  quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities 
Level 2: 

inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly 
(i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices) 
inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) 

Level 3: 

Key assumptions in the valuation of the instruments were limited to interpolating interest rates for certain future periods where there 
was no observable market data.

The  parent  entity  has  provided  an  unlimited  guarantee  to  Santander  UK  PLC  in  support  of  the  financing  facility  provided  to 
ThinkSmart Financial Services Ltd. 

The  parent  entity  has  issued  an  unlimited  parental  guarantee  in  favour  of  its  UK  clearing  bank  to  guarantee  the  obligations  of 
RentSmart Limited with respect to its Direct Debit and corporate credit card facilities.   

The  Directors  are  of  the  opinion  that  provisions  are  not  required  in  respect  of  these  matters,  as  it  is  not  probable  that  a  future 
sacrifice of economic benefits will be required or the amount is not capable of reliable measurement.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of ThinkSmart Limited

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of ThinkSmart Limited (the Company), 
which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2015, the 
consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated 
statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended on 
that date, notes 1 to 29 comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other 
explanatory information and the directors’ declaration of the Group comprising the Company 
and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors’ responsibility 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 is free from material misstatement whether 
due to fraud or error. In note 2(a), the directors also state, in accordance with Australian 
Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial 
statements of the Group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We 
conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing 
Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit 
engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the 
financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and 
disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, 
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether 
due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control 
relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view 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 entity’s internal control. An audit also includes 
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting 
estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial 
report.

We performed the procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report 
presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting 
Standards, a true and fair view which is consistent with our understanding of the Group’s
financial position and of its performance.

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

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001.
