Chief Executive Officer’s Year in Review 
Tyro Payments Limited 
ABN 49 103 575 042 

Building a specialised banking institution for Australia’s small-to-medium enterprises 

Tyro Payments Limited (Tyro) was founded on February 3, 2003 by Peter Haig, Andrew Rothwell and Paul Wood. Two 
founders, Peter Haig and Andrew Rothwell, have maintained their active involvement with Tyro. In November 2004, Jost 
Stollmann became a major investor, then Director and CEO. Kerry Roxburgh joined as a non-executive Director on April 18, 
2008. He was appointed Chairman of the Board on February 19, 2010. 

Tyro is Australia’s independent EFTPOS provider serving small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) with payment solutions that are 
seamlessly integrated with their business software. Payment acceptance and reconciliation is fully automated. 

Tyro holds an authority under the Banking Act 1959 (Cth) to carry on a banking business and operates under the supervision of 
the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA). Tyro is a Principal Member of Visa, MasterCard, UnionPay, eftpos and a 
Tier 1 Member of the payment clearing streams BECS and CECS.  

Tyro operates an in-house developed platform authorising, clearing and settling electronic card payments and health rebate 
claims. Tyro accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express/JCB, Diners, PIN-based eftpos, PayPal and gift card transactions. 
Tyro is an accredited provider for Medicare Australia Easyclaim and provides claiming services for Medicare Australia and 
Australia’s private health funds. 

Tyro vision: Smart, fair and transparent banking  

Tyro promotes the growth of Australia's SME community by providing banking services that increase SME competitiveness and 
improve people's quality of life. The opportunity is significant and because of this Tyro has reinvested the growing earnings of 
the fiscal year into product development. 

During 2015, Tyro doubled its engineering staff to 130 professionals working in software development, testing, operations, 
product management, and user experience design. Staff levels in all other departments also grew resulting in an increase of 74 
percent to 221 professionals. To cater for the growth, Tyro moved to new premises at 155 Clarence Street, Sydney. 

The focus of the development effort over the year was on expanding the acquiring system into a core banking platform. Tyro is 
currently undergoing an authorisation process to remove the condition on its banking authority of not being allowed to take 
money on deposit. Subject to this outcome, Tyro will offer its merchants an account integrated with a cloud-based accounting 
solution. Tyro’s new deposit account will provide SMEs with automatic reconciliation between their accounting system and their 
bank account as well as other features to enable increased productivity. 

Tyro growth: Sustainably at 30 percent and above 

As at June 30, 2015, Tyro was serving 13,032 SMEs, with a credit and debit card transaction volume growth rate of 30 percent 
to $6.8 billion. Tyro’s revenue in 2015 grew 37 percent to $72.4 million. Over its nine years in business, Tyro has maintained a 
high-growth rate in revenue and a compound annual growth rate of 37 percent over the past five years. While the year finished 
with a profit, significant reinvestment into product development, premises and staff resulted in a drop in Tyro’s operating results.

Tyro Health 

Tyro was the first to launch an integrated Medicare Easyclaim solution into the primary health care market. Easyclaim is a real-
time Medicare claiming and reimbursement service for patient-paid and bulk-billed claims. The solution uses an eftpos terminal 
and the eftpos network to enable rebates from the medical practice immediately after consultation.  
Tyro Easyclaim eliminates data entry errors and printing of paper vouchers. End-of-day banking is fast and accurate and 
immediate payments reduce the practice’s outstanding debt. Patients enjoy Medicare rebates by swiping their card and seeing 
their rebate in their account in 11 seconds.  

Tyro leads the market with more than half of all Medicare rebate transactions processed through the eftpos card system. The 
solution is certified with most of the practice automation software providers.  

Tyro’s HealthPoint is a new private health fund and Medicare claiming solution tailored to allied health providers and integrated 
directly with the practice management software. The major modalities that will benefit from this solution in the future are 
dentists, optometrists and physiotherapists.

Tyro Retail 

Tyro continues to execute its overall strategy of accessing merchants via Point of Sale (POS) vendors. The Tyro terminal 
adapters enable the POS vendors to implement the EFTPOS integration protocol directly with Tyro. This means that integration 
no longer requires weeks of effort but merely days and integrations are far more robust. 

Tyro EFTPOS terminals process card payment transactions in an average of three seconds with most POS software and 
without performance degradation through busy peak trading times such as Christmas. Reconciliation has become simpler 
because the cash register and EFTPOS reports always match. There are no more time-consuming manual adjustments and 
printouts each evening. 

With a Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) feature, international customers can pay in more than 135 different currencies, 
eliminating surprises on their statements when returning home. For the merchant, DCC provides extra revenue from the 
generated foreign exchange margins. 

Tyro Hospitality 

Tyro was the first and is the only provider of a pay, split and tip-at-table function on its terminals that can be integrated with 
most of the leading restaurant automation software systems.  

In August 2014, Australia began phasing out the cardholder’s signature as an acceptable authentication method for face-to-face 
payment card transactions. Now the consumer is required to enter their four-digit PIN. The hospitality sector was particularly 
impacted by this change as table service restaurants had to arrange for the terminal to be brought to the table to complete the 
payment process and the PIN entry. 

Tyro's Pay@Table solution permits the payment terminal to communicate with a restaurant’s POS over a wireless network, thus 
permitting pay-at-table transactions to be conducted on an integrated basis. Tyro provides a comprehensive suite of features 
including tipping at table, splitting amounts and opening bar tabs. 

Tyro Mobile 

With its foundation partner PayPal, Tyro launched the first mobile integrated payment solution. Customers can search for stores 
or restaurants, check-in and pay from their smartphone. There is no card or PIN required. Instant face recognition on the point 
of sale system promotes personalised service and enables secure authentication.  

For the Tyro merchant, offering customers more payment choices such as PayPal is easy. Tyro Mobile provides the same 
seamless integration for mobile payments as it does for card payments.  

Tyro Fintech Hub 
Tyro opened up a floor of its new premises for other fintech startups and fast-growth companies who want to build new 
solutions that Australia’s SME businesses need.  

Entrepreneurs in the Tyro Fintech hub benefit from an inspiring work environment, the exchange of ideas and experiences with 
the Tyro team and – for qualifying projects – from sharing in-depth banking and payments knowledge, use of open APIs and co-
development resources.  

By opening up the Tyro platform and encouraging the ecosystem to use it, Tyro will leverage the talent and engineering 
resources of its partners to provide better solutions for the SME community. Tyro does not take equity positions, and the hub is 
an extension of its original eftpos banking strategy.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The significant policies which have been adopted in the preparation of this financial report are set out below: 

The financial report of Tyro Payments Limited (the Company) was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the 
directors on 20 August 2015. 

Tyro Payments Limited is an unlisted public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. 

The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ report. 

(a) Basis of preparation 

The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board. The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for available-for-sale 
investments, which have been measured at fair value. 

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, under the 
option available to the Company under ASIC Class Order No. 98/100, unless otherwise stated. 

Management has reviewed the method of presentation of revenue and expenses within Note 2. Similar categories of income 
and expenses have been grouped together. Prior year comparative information for these amounts, and where necessary, has 
been reclassified to achieve consistency in disclosure with current financial year amounts and other disclosures. 

(b) Compliance with IFRS 

The financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board. 

(c) Going concern 

The Company is in its eighth year of operation and has made an operating profit of $690,806 (2014: profit $3,851,678) 

The Directors consider the Company is able to pay its debts as and when they fall due, and therefore the Company is able to 
continue as a going concern. 

(d) Statement of compliance 

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting standards issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and 
complies with International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Financial Reporting Standards Board. 

(e) New Accounting standards and interpretations 

(i) Changes in accounting policies 

The accounting policies are consistent with those applied in the previous financial year and corresponding interim period. 

The Company has adopted the following new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and AASB 
Interpretations 

AASB 2012-3  

Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities 

AASB 2011-4  

Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Remove individual KMP disclosure requirements 

AASB 2013-3  

Recoverable amount disclosures for Non-Financial Assets 

AASB 1031  

Materiality 

The adoption of the above Standards and Interpretations is deemed not to have an impact on the financial statements or 
performance of the Company.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd) 

(ii) Accounting standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective 

The following Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, which have recently been issued or amended but are not 
yet effective have not been adopted by the Company for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2015: 

•  AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers - establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of 
financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an 
entity’s contracts with customers. The core principle of AASB 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the 
transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity 
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognises revenue in accordance with the 
core principles explained in a step by step approach in the standard. AASB 15 applies to annual reporting periods on 
or after 1 January 2018. The new requirements of AASB 15 will be assessed closer to the effective date.  

•  AASB 9 Financial Instruments – simplifies the classifications of financial assets into those to be carried at amortised 

cost and those to be carried at fair value. The new standard also: 

- 
- 
- 

- 

simplifies requirements for embedded derivatives.  
removes the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets. 
provides an opportunity to fair value investments in equity instruments to other comprehensive income, with 
no separate impairment test, whilst taking dividends to income. 
requires entities to reclassify their financial assets when there is a change in the entity's business model. 

AASB 9 applies to annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2017. The new requirements of AASB 9 will be 
assessed closer to the effective date.  

(f) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

In applying the Company's accounting policies management continually evaluates judgements, estimates and assumptions 
based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have an impact on the Company. All 
judgements, estimates and assumptions made are believed to be reasonable based on the most current set of circumstances 
available to management. Actual results may differ from judgements, estimates and assumptions. Significant judgements, 
estimates and assumptions made by management in the preparation of these financial statements are outlined as follows: 

Share-based payments transactions - The Company recognises the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by 
reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date on which they are granted. The fair value is determined using 
the Black-Scholes option valuation model, with the assumptions detailed in Note 9. 

Classification of and valuation of investments - The Company classifies its investments in listed securities as 'available -for-sale' 
investments and movements in fair values are recognised directly in equity. The fair value of listed shares has been determined 
by reference to published price quotations in an active market. 

Estimation of useful lives of assets - The estimation of the useful lives of assets has been based on historical experience. In 
addition, the condition of the assets is assessed at least once per year and considered against their remaining useful lives. 
Adjustments to useful lives are made when considered necessary. Depreciation charges are included in Note 8. 

Long Service Leave - Entitlements that arise in respect of long service leave which are expected to be settled more than 12 
months after the reporting date have been measured at their present values of expected future payments. Long service leave is 
calculated based on assumptions and estimates of when employees will take leave and the prevailing wage rates at the time 
the leave will be taken. Long service leave liability also requires a prediction of the number of employees that will achieve 
entitlement to long service leave.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd) 

(g) Revenue recognition 

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can 
be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised. 

(i) Fee income  

The Company derives fee income from the following sources: 

-  Merchant service fee income is generated from merchant customers for credit and debit card acquiring services. Fees are 

charged to merchants depending on the type of transaction being performed based on a percentage of transaction value or 
on a fixed amount per transaction.  Fees related to the payment transactions are recognised at the time transactions are 
processed. Related interchange fee, which is collected from merchants and paid to credit institutions is recognised as an 
expense instead of netting-off against merchant service fee income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

-  Revenue from terminal rental income generated from merchants is based on a fixed rental from terminals. 
-  Revenue from Debit Card Interchange generated from banks is based on a fixed fee per transaction and is recognised 

when transactions are processed. 

-  Revenue from processing Medicare Easyclaim generated from merchants is based on a fixed fee per transaction and is 

recognised when transactions are processed. 

-  Revenue from Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) transactions generated from merchants is calculated based on the 

individual value of the transactions and is recognised once the transaction has been processed. 

(ii) Interest income 

Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on an accruals basis, using a method that 
approximates the effective Interest method. The effective interest rate method measures the amortised cost of a financial asset 
and allocates the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest which is the rate that exactly discounts 
estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. 

(h) Leases 

The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires 
an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and whether 
the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. 

Leases in which the Company retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased asset are classified as 
operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased 
asset and recognised as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as lease rental income. Operating lease payments 
are recognised as an income or expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the lease 
term. 

Deferred income is recognised as a liability on the Statement of Financial Position on inception of the lease. The deferred lease 
incentive is then recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, 
through rent expense. 

(i) Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. For the 
purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are reported net of outstanding bank overdrafts. 

(j) Trade and other receivables 

Trade receivables, which generally have 30 day terms, are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at 
amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. Term Deposits are included 
in Trade and other receivable.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd) 

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when 
identified. An allowance for doubtful debts is raised when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to 
collect the debt. 

(k) Prepayments 

Prepayments are recognised for amounts paid whereby goods have not transferred ownership to the Company or where 
services have not yet been provided. Upon receipt of goods or the service the corresponding asset is recognised in the 
Statement of Financial Position or the expense is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

(l) Available-for-sale Investments 

Available-for-sale investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the 
acquisition of the investment. After initial recognition these investments are measured at fair value. Gains or losses on 
available-for-sale investments are recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is sold, collected or 
otherwise disposed of or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously 
reported in equity is transferred to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

Purchase and sale of investments are recognised on settlement date - the date on which the Company receives or delivers the 
asset. 

(m) Inventories 

(i) Cost and Valuation 

The costs of purchase of inventories comprise the purchase price, import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently 
recoverable by the Company from the taxing authorities), and transport, handling and other costs directly attributable to the 
acquisition of finished goods, materials and services. Trade discounts, rebates and other similar items are deducted in 
determining the costs of purchase. Inventories are subsequently held at the lower of cost and their net realisable value. 
Impairment is assessed on an annual basis. Inventories are derecognised upon transfer to property, plant and equipment when 
leased out to merchants or rights to benefits are transferred to a third party.  

(ii) Impairment 

Management make assessments of the net realisable value of Inventory on an annual basis. The cost of inventory may not be 
recoverable where the inventory is damaged, wholly or partially obsolete, or if selling prices have declined. In accordance with 
AASB 102, where the cost of inventory exceeds the net realisable value, Inventory is written down to their net realisable value. 
Net realisable value is an estimate, based on the most reliable evidence at the time, of the amount the inventories are expected 
to realise. 

(n) Income Taxes 

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior years are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or 
paid to the taxation authority. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or 
substantively enacted by the by the reporting date. 

(o) Deferred tax asset 

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and 
their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date (Note 3).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

(p) Other Taxes 

Goods and Services Tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are recognised net of the amount of GST except for the following: 

- 

- 

when the GST incurred on the purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which 
case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and 
trade receivables and trade payables are stated with the amount of GST included. 

The net amount of GST recoverable from or payable to the taxation authority is included as part of other receivables or other 
payables in the Statement of Financial Position. 

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST. 

(q) Acquisition of assets 

All assets acquired including property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at their cost of acquisition at the date of 
acquisition, being the fair value of the consideration provided plus any incidental costs directly attributable to the acquisition. 

Expenditure is recognised as an asset only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow 
to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred. 

(r) Property, plant and equipment 

(i) Cost and Valuation 

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. The Company 
recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing parts when the cost is 
incurred and the recognition criteria are met. When each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying 
amount of the item of property, plant or equipment, as a replacement, provided that the recognition criteria are satisfied. 

(ii) Depreciation 

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each specific item of property, plant and 
equipment. 

Estimated useful lives are as follows: 

2015 

2014 

Plant and equipment: 

- EFTPOS terminals 

- Furniture and office equipment 

- Computer equipment 

- Leasehold improvements 

3 years 

5 years 

4 years 

3 years 

5 years 

4 years 

Remaining term of lease 

- 

The assets' residual values, remaining useful lives and depreciation methods are reassessed and adjusted, if appropriate at 
each reporting date. 

(iii) Impairment 

Management has identified cash generating units and applicable impairment indicators in accordance with AASB 136 
Impairment of Assets. The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in 
circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values 
exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of 
plant and equipment is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

(r) Property, plant and equipment (cont’d) 

(iv) De-recognition and disposal 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to 
arise from continued use of the asset. Gains and losses on disposals are calculated as the difference between the net disposal 
proceeds and the asset's carrying amount and are included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year the asset is 
derecognised. 

(s) Trade and other payables 

Merchant payables arise when the Company has received monies from the relevant schemes and financial institutions that 
have not yet been settled with the merchant. 

Payables to merchants are only recognised to the extent that a liability arises. This liability arises when the proceeds have been 
paid by the schemes and financial institutions and received by the Company. 

Liabilities for trade and other payables are carried at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for 
goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Company. 

(t) Interest-bearing loan and borrowings 

All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable 
transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost 
using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities that are yield related are included as part of 
the cost of the loans and liabilities. The fair value of the options attached to the loan is also included in the cost of the loan. 
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability 
for 12 months after the reporting date. Borrowing costs consists of interest and other costs incurred in the borrowing of funds.  

(u) Provisions and contingencies 

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it 
is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable 
estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. 

If the impact of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks 
specific to the liability.  Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a 
finance cost. 

Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position, but are disclosed in the relevant notes to the 
financial statements. They may arise from uncertainty as to the existence of a liability or represent an existing liability in respect 
of which settlement is not probable or the amount cannot be reliably measured. Only when settlement becomes probable will a 
liability be recognised. 

The Company is contingently liable for processed credit card sales transactions in the event of a dispute between the 
cardholder and a merchant. If a dispute is resolved in the cardholder’s favour, the Company will credit or refund the amount to 
the cardholder and charge back the transaction to the merchant. If the Company is unable to collect the amount from the 
merchant, the Company will bear the loss for the amount credited or refunded to the cardholder.  

Management evaluates the risk of such transactions and estimates its potential loss for credit losses based primarily on 
historical experience and other relevant factors. A provision is recognised for merchant losses necessary to absorb 
chargebacks and other losses for merchant transactions that have been previously processed and on which revenues have 
been recorded.  

From the current financial year a specific provision for credit losses is maintained when there is objective evidence that the 
company will not be able to collect the debts.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

(v) General reserve for credit losses 

The Company provides for estimated future credit losses with a general reserve for chargebacks. The Company estimates the 
reserve by using a multiple of historical losses over a rolling 120 day period of transaction values. The general reserve for credit 
losses is then allocated as a separate reserve within equity. 

The methodology and assumptions used for estimating general reserve for credit losses required are reviewed regularly.  

(w) Employee benefits 

Provision is made for employee benefits accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the reporting date. 
These benefits include wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave. 

Entitlements arising in respect of salaries and wages, annual leave and other employee benefits that are expected to be settled 
within one year have been measured at their nominal amounts. Employees are entitled to 20 days annual leave each year. The 
company classes as a current liability the portion that is expected will be taken by the employees in the next 12 months.  

Entitlements that arise in respect of long service leave which are expected to be settled more than 12 months after the reporting 
date have been measured at their present values of expected future payments. Long service leave is calculated based on 
assumptions and estimates of when employees will take leave and the prevailing wage rates at the time the leave will be taken. 
Long service leave liability also requires a prediction of the number of employees that will achieve entitlement to long service 
leave. 

No provision has been made for sick leave as all sick leave is non-vesting and the average sick leave to be taken in the future 
by all employees at reporting date is estimated to be less than the annual entitlement for sick leave. 

(x) Share-based payment transactions 

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees (including Key Management Personnel) via the Employee 
Share Option Plan, whereby employees render services in exchange for rights over the Company's shares. 

The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity 
instruments at the date at which they are granted.  The fair value is determined internally using the Black-Scholes option 
valuation model. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with any corresponding increase in equity, over the period in 
which the employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting period). 

The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects the extent to 
which the vesting period has expired and the number of awards that, in the opinion of the Directors of the Company, will 
ultimately vest. This opinion is based on the best available information at the reporting date. No adjustment is made for the 
likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair 
value at grant date. 

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest. There were no modifications to the terms of the outstanding 
options during the financial year. Details of the types of share-based payments and their respective terms and vesting 
conditions are disclosed in Note 9. 

(y) Contributed equity 

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the 
date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the spot rate of 
exchange ruling at the reporting date. 

Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at their historic rates of exchange at their respective transaction dates. 

(aa) De-recognition of assets and liabilities 

Assets and liabilities are derecognised from the Statement of Financial Position upon sale, maturity or settlement. Gains and 
losses arising from de-recognition of these assets and liabilities are accounted in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Options granted will vest in proportion to the time that passes linearly during the vesting 
schedule, subject to maintaining continuous status as an employee or consultant with the 
Company during the vesting schedule. 

Service vesting schedule 

The options vest according to a period of service may be exercised as to a set number of shares 
per agreed day of service, as defined in the specific option grant. 

Fully vested at time of grant  Options may be exercised as to all shares from the vesting commencement date. 

All option grants must be held for a minimum period commencing on the date on which the options are granted and continuing 
until the earlier of:

9. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS (cont'd) 

Other relevant terms and conditions applicable to options granted under the Employee Share Option Plan include: 

- 

- 
- 

the term of each option grant shall be 7 years from the date of grant or such shorter term as provided in the Employee 
Share Option Plan agreement.  
Each option entitles the holder to one ordinary share. 
All awards granted under the Employee Share Option Plan are equity-settled.  

(b) Fair value of options 

The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The table below 
lists the assumptions used in determining the fair value of the options granted during the year ended 30 June 2015:  

Dividend yield (%) 

Expected volatility (%) 

Risk-free interest rate (%) 

Share price ($) 

2015 

0% 

62% 

2.84% 

$0.30 

A zero dividend policy assumption is used for valuing all option grants. This is in line with the Company's capital management 
policy and growth strategy. 

Expected volatility used is the historical volatility of the peer group. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the 
historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may not necessarily be the actual outcome. 

The average expected life for 7 year options is assumed to be 5 - 6 years from the grant date. The expected life for 10 year 
option is assumed to be 5 - 8 years. For all other options with a contractual life of 5 year or less, the expected life is assumed to 
be the total contractual life from the date of grant to the expiry date. 

There were 450,858 options exercised during the year ended 30 June 2015 (2014:10,194,219). 

The weighted average remaining contractual life for share options outstanding as at 30 June 2015 was 3 years (2014:4 years).

The general reserve for credit losses has been created to satisfy Australian Prudential and Regulation Authority (APRA) 
prudential standards for Authorised Deposit-Taking Institutions (ADI) to maintain a general reserve for credit losses. The 
Company applies an internal methodology to estimate the credit risk of its merchant customers and the maximum expected 
losses based upon a number of assumptions concerning the performance of merchants in relation to the Company's credit risk 
grading system and actual experience.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

14. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND PROCESSES 

The Company's principal financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, available-for-
sale financial assets and trade and other payables. 

(i) Risk management  

The Board is responsible for approving and reviewing the risk management strategy and risk framework and all risk 
management policies. The Board has installed a Board Risk Committee to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities in the 
management of risk. The Board Risk Management Committee provides non-executive oversight of the implementation and on-
going operation of Tyro’s risk management framework. The Board Risk Committee provides recommendations to the Board on 
risk appetite; reviews and approves the frameworks for managing risk; monitors the risk profile, exposures against limits and the 
management and control of our risks. Various management committees, including the management risk committee, the ALCO 
and the credit committee ensure appropriate execution of the Board’s risk appetite in day to day operations and regularly report 
to the Board risk committee 

(ii) Risk controls 

Risks are controlled through a system that identifies key risks, establishes controls to manage those risks (with an emphasis on 
preventive control), and maintains a regular review process to monitor the effectiveness of controls. Business risks are 
controlled within tolerance levels approved by the Board Risk Committee and Board. 

(iii) Internal audit 

Tyro has an independent and adequately resourced internal audit function. The internal audit function provides independent 
assurance to the Board on the adequacy and effectiveness of the control environment and risk framework. Internal Audit also 
reviews the controls implemented by management to ensure compliance with APRA's prudential requirements. This program of 
internal control and audit is reviewed and approved on a regular basis by the Audit Committee. 

The internal auditor has unfettered access to Tyro’s business lines and support functions. 

(iv) Credit risk 

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading 
to a financial loss. Tyro is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing 
activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and held to maturity 
investments. 

The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amounts of the financial assets at reporting date. Tyro's 
credit risk management principles define the framework and core values which govern its credit risk taking activities and reflect 
the priorities established by the Board.  

From these principles flow the development of target market strategies, underwriting standards and credit procedures which 
define the operating processes. The operation of a credit risk grading system coupled with ongoing monitoring, reporting and 
review allows Tyro to identify changes in credit quality at client and portfolio levels and to take corrective actions in a timely 
manner. 

In addition, Tyro is subject to the risk of credit card chargebacks (credit losses). The maximum period Tyro is potentially liable 
for such chargebacks is 120 days after the date of the transaction. Tyro prudently manages credit risk associated with its 
merchant portfolio both at an individual and a portfolio level, by monitoring the concentration of risk by industry and type of 
counterparty. 

It is Tyro's policy that all merchants are subject to credit verification procedures including an assessment of their independent 
credit rating, financial position, past experience and industry reputation.  

As part of equity, a general reserve for credit losses is raised to cover losses due to uncollectible chargebacks that have not 
been specifically identified. The reserve is calculated based on expected future credit losses as described in Note 1(v). Tyro 
does not hold any credit derivatives or collateral to offset its credit exposure. Tyro trades only with recognised, creditworthy third 
parties and as such no collaterals are requested. Credit exposures are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that Tyro's 
exposure to bad debts is not significant at reporting date.

Operational risk is the risk that arises from inadequate or failed internal processes and systems, human error or misconduct, or 
from external events. It also includes, among other things, technology risk, model risk and outsourcing risk. 

The Board Risk Committee is responsible for monitoring the operational risk profile, the performance of operational risk 
management and controls, and the development and ongoing review of operational risk policies. 

(vi) Market risk 

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market 
prices. Market prices comprise four types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk, commodity price risk and other price risk, such 
as equity price risk. Tyro does not engage in financial market trading activities nor assume any foreign exchange, interest rate 
or other derivative positions and does not have a trading book. The Company does not undertake any hedging around the 
values of its financial instruments as any risk of loss is considered insignificant to the operations of the Company. 

Any government securities, bank bills or other marketable instruments that the Company holds are for investment or liquidity 
purposes and held in the normal course of business in line with investment and liquidity guidelines. Each component of market 
risk is detailed below as follows: 

1) Interest rate risk 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in 
market interest rates. The Company has exposure to interest rate risk on its variable interest-bearing cash and cash equivalent 
balances. Other interest bearing assets are held to maturity and carried at amortised cost. 

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest. With all other variables held 
constant, Tyro’s profit before tax is affected as follows:

increase the Company's profit after tax and increase equity by $167,839, (2014:$90,106). A decrease of 100 basis points in the 
general cash rate will have an equal and opposite effect. 

2) Foreign Currency risk 

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of 
changes in foreign exchange rates. 

Tyro is not exposed to foreign currency risk in the settlement of merchant transactions as all monies received and paid are in 
Australian Dollars. The Company's settlement of fees with card schemes and the purchases of inventory from foreign suppliers 
are transacted in foreign currencies at the exchange rate prevailing the balance sheet date. At reporting date the Company has 
some US Dollar and Euro exposure. 

FX Sensitivity analysis: 

An appreciation of 15% of the US Dollar and EUR compared to the Australian Dollar (assuming every other factors being 
constant) will increase the Company's profit after tax and increase equity by $291,866 (2014: $186,134). A depreciation of 15% 
of the US Dollar and EUR compared to the Australian Dollar will reduce the company's profit after tax and reduce equity by 
$215,727 (2014:$137,578).

The Company's investment in available-for-sale financial assets is valued by way of reference to an underlying listed equity on 
the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and as such its fair value will fluctuate in direct proportion with the quoted market price 
indicated.  

(vii) Capital Management 

Tyro Payments Limited capital management objectives are to: 

-  Maintain a sufficient level of capital above the regulatory minimum to provide a buffer against loss arising from 

unanticipated events, and allow Tyro to continue as a going concern; and 
Ensure that capital management is closely aligned with Tyro’s business and strategic objectives. 

- 

Tyro manages capital adequacy according to the framework set out by APRA Prudential Standards. 

APRA determines minimum prudential capital ratios (eligible capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets) that must be 
held by all authorised deposit-taking institutions. Accordingly, Tyro is required to maintain a minimum prudential capital ratio 
(eligible capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets) on a Level 1 basis as determined by APRA.

(vii) Capital Management (cont’d) 

The board considers Tyro’s strategy, financial performance objectives, and other factors relating to the efficient management of 
capital in setting target ratios of capital above the regulatory required levels. These processes are formalised within Tyro’s 
internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP). Tyro operates under the specific capital requirements set by APRA. 
Tyro has satisfied its minimum capital requirements throughout the 2015 financial year in the form of Tier 1 capital which is the 
highest quality components of capital.

Tyro's liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will have insufficient liquidity to meet its obligations as they fall due. This could 
potentially arise as a result of mismatched cash flows.  

Tyro manages this risk by the Board Risk Committee approved liquidity framework. Responsibility for liquidity management is 
delegated to the CFO and CEO. The CFO manages liquidity on a daily basis and submits weekly reports to the CEO and to 
CRO, and bi-monthly reports to ALCO and the Board Risk Committee. The CFO is also responsible for monitoring and 
managing capital planning. The capital plan outlines triggers for additional funding should liquidity be required. 

Liquidity risk management framework models the ability to fund under both normal conditions and periods of stress. The capital 
plan and liquidity management is reviewed at least annually.  

At balance sheet date, the board of directors determined that there was sufficient cash available to meet its anticipated 
expenditure and other financial liabilities.

The Company uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise: 
Level 1 – the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets. 
Level 2 – the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset 
or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). 
Level 3 – the fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data. 

The fair value of the financial instruments as well as the methods used to estimate the fair value are summarised in the table 
below.

(ix) Fair values (cont’d) 

Quoted market price represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices on active markets as at the reporting date 
without any deduction for transaction costs. 

Tyro does not own any financial instruments not quoted in active markets. 

Transfer between categories 

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the current year.  

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES 

Commitments relating to BECS  

Tyro pays merchants through the BECS system (Bulk Electronic Clearing System).  As a result of BECS Intra-day settlements 
which went live in November 2013 all merchant settlements committed are processed on the same day.   

On each settlement day, Tyro would have received a portion of the funds committed, thus the actual contingent asset and 
corresponding liability would be less than the total amount committed. 

Contingent liabilities - secured 
(I) Irrevocable standby letters of credit in favour of: 

- MasterCard International 
- Visa International 
- UnionPay International

The Company has provided an irrevocable standby letter of credit of $3,217,813 (in 2014: $2,920,042) secure through fixed 
charges over term deposits with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia and Westpac Banking Corporation, to MasterCard 
International, Visa International and Union Pay International. These are one-year arrangements that are subject to automatic 
renewal on a yearly basis. MasterCard International and Visa International, at their discretion, may increase the required 
amounts of the standby letters of credit upon written request to the Company. The required amounts of the standby letters of 
credit are dependent on MasterCard International's and Visa International's view of their risk exposure to the Company.  

A bank guarantee is held with the Westpac Banking Corporation in relation to the lease arrangement for the office premises. 
The amount represents 9 month’s rent and is refundable on expiry of the lease agreement, subject to satisfactory vacation of 
the leased premises.

16. LEASES 

(a) Operating lease commitments - Company as lessor 

Prior to April 2010, Tyro operated a "rent to own" model whereby ownership of the terminal would transfer to the merchant once 
they had made 36 consecutive rental payments. However Tyro bears the risk of repairing or replacing the terminal over the 3 
year period. The merchant would then continue to pay a service and maintenance fee after this period. There is no minimum 
rental period for merchants and they are able to terminate with Tyro at any time with no penalty or buy out fees. From April 
2010, the company has moved to a perpetual rental model whereby there will be no transfer of ownership of the asset and the 
merchant will pay terminal rental for the duration that they are with Tyro.

The operating lease commitments relate to the lease of the Company's registered office located at 155 Clarence Street, Sydney 
NSW. It is a non-cancellable lease with a term of 7 years ending 22 January 2021. The lease agreement provides the Company 
with the option to extend the lease for another 3 years. Lease payments are subject to annual increases of 4%. 

17. SEGMENT REPORTING 

The Company operates in one geographical segment being Australia and within one business segment being the provision of 
credit and debit card acquiring services to merchants.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015 

The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 18 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor’s independence for the following reasons: 

- 

- 

all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity 
of the auditor, and 

none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in Code of Conduct 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards 
Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for 
the Company, acting as advocate for the Company jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Tyro Payments Limited

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Tyro Payments Limited, which comprises the
statement of financial position as at 30 June 2015, the statement of comprehensive income, statement
of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration.

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 controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the financial
report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors
also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that
the financial statements 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. Those standards require that we comply with
relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about 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 judgment, 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 controls 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 controls. 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 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.  We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor’s Independence Declaration, a
copy of which is included in the directors’ report.

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
