In my letter to you last year, I said that although 
FY21 proved to be another year of challenges for 
Tyro, it presented new opportunities for the way 
in which we conduct business and the products 
we offer to our merchants. I also mentioned that it 
was going to be very difficult to predict when we 
will return to a more normal trading environment 
and FY22 has proven to be a challenging and 
volatile business environment.

For the first four months of FY22, we again 
experienced significant Covid-related lockdowns 
in New South Wales, ACT and Victoria which 
continued to impact our transaction value and 
path to profitability.  In early 2022, the world 
saw a material uptick in inflation driven by global 
supply chain issues with central banks hiking 
interest rates at the fastest pace in over 30 years.  
Although these significant challenges have and 
will continue to affect the business environment in 
which we operate, Tyro continues to have a strong 
customer base and payments capability.     

In November 2021, as bond yields and interest 
rates started to increase - many investors 
changed focus from revenue growth to a free 
cash flow valuation perspective. This shift in 
valuation dynamics has had a significant impact 
on Tyro’s share price which started FY22 at $3.76 
a share and finished the year at $0.60 a share. 
We acknowledge the concern from shareholders 
about this drop in share price. The Board has 
worked with the management team to adopt 
strategies to fast track our path to profitability and 
free cash flow without impacting our future growth 
profile. Robbie will provide more details in his 
report on Tyro’s strategy going forward. 

Tyro now operates on a much larger scale 
compared to when we listed in December 2019. 
We have grown annual transaction value from 
$17.5 billion as recorded in FY19 to $34.2 billion 
for FY22. This equates to an annualised constant 
growth rate of 25% over the 3-year period 
notwithstanding the significant disruption of 
Covid on our business for most of that time. We 
have increased our merchants from 29,000 at IPO 
to just over 63,700 at 30 June 2022, operating 
over 109,000 terminals, reinforcing our position 
as Australia’s 5th largest merchant acquirer by 
terminal numbers. This increased scale has 
translated to Tyro generating positive EBITDA and 
nearing positive free cash flow. 

Our merchant retention metrics remained strong 
in FY22 notwithstanding the challenges of the 
terminal incident in early 2021. To date, $5.0 
million has been paid to merchants under the 

remediation scheme (this was fully accrued for in 
FY21). Furthermore, our defence of the class action 
continues to progress.           

The $668 billion Australian payments industry 
is an ever-changing environment in which we 
are well positioned to accelerate our growth and 
capture a much larger market share. As we look to 
capitalise on the opportunity in front of us, we are 
seeing a greater appetite from micro and small 
businesses to adopt new payment technology 
and digital payments.  With our new products and 
technology, the Board remains optimistic about 
Tyro’s future as we focus on top line growth, our 
margins and operating expenses. We are now at 
the point where we must show strong operating 
leverage in the business.  

Our Reporting 
Framework and 
Sustainability

Consistent with best practice, we have adopted 
a new disclosure format for our Annual Reporting 
suite of documents. In our Sustainability Report, 
we have highlighted how we create value for all 
our stakeholders including enhanced disclosure 
on the use of all our Capitals. This report provides 
a consolidated review of our financial, economic, 
social and environmental performance on matters 
material to our strategy and our ability to create 
and sustain value into the future.

We are committed to building a sustainable 
business that has a strong social conscience and 
we are focussed on delivering solutions that create 
a sustainable future for all our stakeholders. From 
an environmental perspective, we are focussed 
on reducing Tyro’s impact on climate change and 
whilst we are not an intensive emitter of carbon 
dioxide, this year we will become a ‘Net Zero’ 
carbon neutral business by signing up to the 
Climate Active Australia initiative and developing 
our first formal emissions inventory, including the 
purchase of carbon offsets to achieve Net Zero. 
We are also focussed on assisting our merchants 
to understand their own impact on climate change 
and developing ideas on how we can assist them 
in their journey to become carbon neutral.

This is just the start of our move to a more 
comprehensive and more transparent review of 
our business which we will build on in FY23 and 
beyond.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022CHAIR’S LETTER 
The Tyro Board and 
CEO

Hamish Corlett decided to step down from the Board 
in November 2021. I would like to thank Hamish for 
his significant contribution to Tyro and the expert 
global payments knowledge he brought to the 
Board. As part of our Board renewal programme, we 
appointed two new members to the Board in January 
2022. Claire Hatton and Shefali Roy were appointed 
Non-executive Directors with effect from 5 January 
2022. 

Based in Sydney and with extensive career 
experience spanning senior executive and country 
leadership roles in technology and travel businesses 
in Australia, Asia and the UK, Claire brings extensive 
commercial leadership experience to Tyro.

Shefali has extensive C-Suite / senior leadership 
roles in operations, compliance and regulatory 
affairs at global multinational companies and brings 
a wealth of technology expertise and knowledge to 
the Board.  

Robbie Cooke announced in June 2022 that he will 
be leaving Tyro to pursue other career opportunities. 
The Board commenced an executive search process 
canvassing both internal and external candidates to 
identify a suitable CEO successor and Robbie has 
committed to work with Tyro’s Board to ensure a 
smooth transition.

Financial Position

Given the results for FY22, the Group has continued 
to maintain a strong balance sheet throughout the 
year and the Board regularly reviews Tyro’s capital 
structure. Tyro is debt free and as at 30 June 2022, 
we had $122.8 million in cash available to support our 
future growth plans and path to profitability. Total 
capital held at 30 June 2022 was $72 million with a 
total capital ratio of 39% (FY21: $84 million with a 
capital ratio of 73%). Tyro currently holds sufficient 
capital to meet its internal targets above APRA’s 
prudential capital requirements and the Board does 
not believe that we will need to raise any additional 
capital until we reach a positive free cash flow.

People, Culture and 
Diversity

At Tyro, we embrace a workplace that is safe, 
inclusive and welcoming for all our employees.  We 
recognise that our merchants and the community in 
which we operate are diverse and multi-cultural, and 
we are committed to ensuring that our team reflects 
this diverse community.

In FY22, we introduced our first ever cultural diversity 
survey to better understand ourselves and how our 
broad-based diversity compares to the community 
in which we operate. We have initially looked at 
the cultural diversity of our Board and Executive 
Leadership Team and will implement initiatives in 
FY23 across our entire team. The learnings from 
these initiatives will guide our thinking and setting 
targets for broad-based diversity rather than only 
being focussed on gender diversity.      

We have also made good progress on the gender 
diversity targets we set in the prior year.  We 
target representation of women at Tyro across our 
leadership teams and across the broader team on a 
40:40:20 approach with at least 40% women, 40% 
men, with the remaining 20% unspecified to allow for 
flexibility and to recognise that gender is non-binary.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022CHAIR’S LETTER   
Looking forward to FY23

In FY22, we undertook a detailed review of Tyro and the 
payments industry as a whole in Australia and refined 
our strategy for the next period ahead. We have three 
key strategic priorities for FY23, being:

•  the roll-out of our new Tyro Go card reader to 
accelerate our growth into the Micro and SME 
segments of the market and to provide merchants 
with an alternative form factor that meets their 
business needs;

•  the roll-out of our new Tyro Pro android-based 

terminal that will support open-source software and 
enhanced integration with POS providers; and

•  the digitisation of our merchant onboarding process 
and merchant support to enhance our customer 
service and improve the onboarding experience for 
merchants.

Our results for FY22 and the strategic plan we have put 
in place for FY23 positions us well on our journey to 
profitability and positive free cash flow. This next year 
should see us make progress in achieving those goals. 

The Board and management will continue to focus 
on finding areas of operating expenses which we can 
rationalise without impacting our strong growth profile.     

Thank you

Despite the challenging year and the significant 
decline in our market value – we believe the company 
can deliver value for all our stakeholders. We would like 
to thank our shareholders for your support. 

I would like to thank our CEO, Robbie Cooke, for his 
leadership of Tyro over the last 4 years and for leading 
us through the IPO.  Robbie will be leaving us on 31 
December 2022 and we wish him success in his future 
career. Also, our thanks to our dedicated staff for their 
work and commitment.   

Finally, I would like to thank all our merchants, 
partners and other stakeholders for their support and 
engagement over the past twelve-months and we 
look forward to working with you all in FY23. I also look 
forward to seeing all our shareholders at our Annual 
General Meeting on 24 November 2022 which will be 
held in-person for the first time in 3 years.

Sincerely,

David Thodey 
Chair

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022CEO | Managing 
Director’s Report
(Incorporating the Operating 
and Financial Review) 

15

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022I have always been inspired by the tenacity and 
courage of the founding Tyro team that back 
in 2003 challenged the status quo by building 
a truly unique Australian payment business. 
The impetus then was to build a payments 
solution that better served Australia’s SMEs 
and that ambition remains a core part of Tyro’s 
DNA today. We continue to work with some 
amazing businesses, are genuinely inspired by 
their success and gain immense satisfaction 
in assisting them grow and thrive. This is the 
essence of Tyro and what drives us as a team. 

There is no denying it has been a challenging 
year for our business. Covid lockdowns impacted 
our performance in the first half exacerbated 
by increased wage costs fuelled by tech 
talent shortages. In the second half the shift 
in investment appetite for tech and payments 
companies globally saw the market’s focus move 
away from strong revenue growth companies to 
a preference for those delivering positive EBITDA 
and cashflow. For Tyro, these challenges had to 
be navigated whilst still bedding in the not as 
yet earnings accretive Medipass acquisition and 
conducting the Bendigo Bank Alliance migration.

Against that backdrop and at a high level we 
delivered transaction value of $34.2 billion (up 
34% on FY21) with more than 63,500 merchants 
(up 10% on FY21) trusting us with their payments 
needs. We lifted revenue 36% to a $326.1 million 
and we lifted normalised gross profit 24% to 
$148.5 million. We delivered a normalised EBITDA 
outcome for FY22 of $10.7 million down from 
FY21’s $14.2 million, reflecting $4.7 million in 
additional costs from the Medipass operation 
(pre any revenue uplift from integration with the 
Tyro Health platform) and the absence of $4.5 
million in JobKeeper benefits received in FY21.

We put initiatives in place in the second half of 
the year, which started contributing in the last 
quarter of FY22, to continue driving revenue 
performance whilst focusing on reducing 
headcount (see chart 1 below) and holding 
operating costs flat. These actions produced an 
improved operating margin in the Q4 (see chart 2 
below) which is expected to further improve into 
FY23 (discussed further in this Report).

Before discussing our financial performance for the year in more detail, I would like to spend some 
time focussing on the environment Tyro operates in and the shifts we have made in FY22 to enhance 
future outcomes for our merchants and shareholders alike.

• 

Medipass acquisition and our existing health 
business to create a class leading health 
payments and claiming business in Australia;
refining our approach to the servicing of micro 
merchants. Previously, we did not differentiate 
between micro, small, medium and large 
merchants. Given the scale of our portfolio of 
merchants now, it is seen as an opportune time 
to have a separate strategy for our different size 
of merchants to ensure we provide the right 
product and service to them subject to their 
needs;

•  entering the trades, services and 

• 

accommodation verticals underwritten by 
industry relevant features and products;
launching new payments devices, including the 
Tyro Go reader and our new android-based Tyro 
Pro terminal;

•  digitising our merchant onboarding and servicing 

capabilities;

•  expanding our merchant acquisition footprint 

through new partnerships and alliances;
•  providing a unified commerce offering to 
merchants, including card-present and 
eCommerce payments, banking and data 
insights; and

•  expanding our portfolio of banking products and 

leveraging our valuable banking licence.

The Payments 
Landscape and 
Competition

We operate in one of the most competitive 
industries globally – the landscape today is as 
competitive as it was 5 years ago. From the entry 
of new international and domestic merchant 
acquirers, the establishment of new players, new 
investment in payment tech by the big four banks 
and new payment types emerging such as BNPL, 
QR code payments and the NPP, competition is 
ever present to Tyro. Despite this environment, 
Tyro has over the last 5 years continued to capture 
segment share with 7x the card-present system 
growth and our segment share of total card-
present payments reaching 5.1% at 30 June 2022 
and segment share for SMEs in health, hospitality 
and retail estimated at 19.2%.  

Strategy

The strategy articulated in our Prospectus in 2019 
has seen Tyro’s transaction value doubling in the 
space of 4 years. Given the passage of time and 
the dynamic nature of the industry we saw FY22 
as an opportune time to reassess our strategic 
plan. In the year we undertook a comprehensive 
review process with our management team and 
the Board to evaluate our past strategy and define 
a refined strategic plan for the next 3-years. 

Some of the key strategic priorities we have 
identified are:

•  a continued focus on the needs and wants 
of the Australian SME segment with our 
differentiated offering leveraging our 
proprietary technology; 

•  stepping up our concentration on the health 
vertical through the combination of our

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022CEO | MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORTTyro Health Business

 Tyro’s new Tyro Health business unit was launched 
on 1 July 2022 and brings together all our health 
offerings under the one leadership team - this 
includes the Medipass digital platform as well as 
Tyro’s existing health specific claiming offerings 
on our EFTPOS terminal. This combined team of 
60 has deep health industry expertise, covering 
sales, support, marketing, engineering and product 
development.

This Medipass and Tyro combination provides Tyro’s 
health merchants greater claiming and payment 
capabilities extending beyond Tyro’s existing 
terminal-based claiming to facilitate a range of 
new experiences such as telehealth, in-home and 
online claiming and payments. In addition, our digital 
capability integrates a range of state and federal 
based compensatory funders to enable digital 
claiming with merchants. 

Tyro’s health business now integrates with 77 health 
specific third-party software vendors and supports 
approximately 13,989 active healthcare merchants 
across all healthcare professions including allied 
health, GPs, specialists and hospitals. 

FY22 saw Tyro Health integrate new insurers and 
schemes, including WorkSafe Victoria, Comcare 
and nib. Tyro Health customers can now use 
Tyro’s offerings to raise digital claims through 
to these insurers and schemes. In addition, our 
EFTPOS terminals can now be accessed from 
Medipass, enabling merchants to access all of Tyro’s 
functionality from the one portal. Tyro Health will 
be launching our integration to Medicare ECLIPSE 
in early FY23, which will enable us to dramatically 
increase our offering to medical specialists and GPs.

“Tyro Health will be launching our integration to

specialists and GPs.”

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022CEO | MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORTNew Products and 
Development of 
Features

In May 2022, we rolled-out our new Tyro Go mobile 
payments reader to merchants with over 336 
readers already in use at 30 June 2022. Tyro Go 
connects wirelessly to the merchant’s smart phone 
or tablet and will complement our current terminal 
offering by:

• 

• 

• 

providing a more appropriate solution for micro 
merchants;
facilitating our entry into the trades and 
services verticals with a fit for purpose mobile 
payment terminal device; and
providing a ‘queue buster’ for high volume 
retail and hospitality merchants who require a 
terminal for floor staff.

In early 2023, we will launch our new Tyro Pro 
android-based terminal to merchants. The Tyro Pro 
terminal will offer a best-in-class experience for 
our merchants supporting Android apps under the 
Android 10 protocol. This new platform will unlock 
the full potential of digital commerce in-store for 
merchants. We will progressively roll-out these new 
terminals and new features to our merchants as our 
existing fleet is retired. 

We will continue to drive our expansion into 
eCommerce and other payment types within 
our current merchant base through our unified 
payments solutions and build up features relevant 
to our current and targeted merchant base across 
our key verticals. Additionally, our online growth 
strategy will focus on larger merchants, ISVs 
(independent software vendors) and POS (point of 
sale) partners where we see many opportunities 
to drive unified payments through the use of 
integrated technologies and third-party partnership 
capabilities.

Banking

After the impact of Covid on lending in FY20 and 
FY21, we saw a lift in interest in our merchant cash 
advance lending product in FY22 writing close to 
$100 million in new loan originations (FY21 $25.8 
million in originations).

Tyro was also one of the first non-major banks to 
become an active data holder under the Consumer 
Data Right or Open Banking in June 2021. Open 
Banking seeks to provide a safe and secure way for 
customers to share their data between accredited 
organisations to enable:

• 

• 
• 

easier comparison of financial products and 
providers;
a single view of accounts across banks; and
streamlined application processes.

For Tyro, the first phase of Open Banking data sharing 
is now available to merchants who opt-in and are sole 
traders in relation to their Tyro bank account and/or 
Tyro term deposit account and includes information 
like transaction details and account balances and 
details.

After a muted start to FY22 with Covid induced 
lockdowns impacting our merchants in New 
South Wales, ACT and Victoria between July 
2021 to October 2021, we experienced a bounce 
back for the remainder of the financial year 
delivering transaction value of $34.2 billion 
(FY21 $25.5 billion) with more than 63,500 
merchants trusting Tyro with their payments 
needs. The strategic importance of our alliance 
with Bendigo Bank is clear in our result. The 
alliance performed ahead of our forecast when 
announcing the partnership back in October 
2020, adding $5.2 billion in transactions to our 
FY22 performance.  

We lifted revenue 36% to $326.1 million and 
we lifted normalised gross profit 24% to $148.5 
million.

The 4th quarter of FY22 gives a better line of 
sight of our performance without the impact 
of Covid from an operating margin and a 
merchant acquiring fee perspective. We 
implemented a price increase in March 2022 
after not passing on scheme and interchange 
fee increases incurred in H1 FY22 to assist our 
merchants impacted by the lockdowns and 
we also implemented operating cost saving 
initiatives whist maintaining investment in those 
projects expected to deliver meaningful growth 
in the coming years.

The table on the next page (table 1) best 
summarises the significant steps we have 
taken over the 4th quarter of FY22 to improve 
our operating leverage and move Tyro to 
profitability and positive free cash flow.

The Covid lockdowns did impact our 
profitability in the year. We lost an estimated 
$1.3 billion in transaction value in New South 
Wales alone between July and October 
2021 from the lockdowns. Using our current 
margins, this translated to lost EBITDA of 
approximately $4.5 million to $5.0 million. Our 
FY22 performance was further impacted by 
the absence of the $4.5 million in JobKeeper 
received in FY21 and carrying the first time 
costs of our Medipass operation. Against this 
backdrop we delivered a normalised EBITDA 
result for FY22 of $10.7 million (FY21 $14.2 
million).

“The strategic importance of our alliance with 
Bendigo Bank is clear in our result. The alliance 
performed ahead of our forecast when announcing 
the partnership back in October 2020, adding $5.2 
billion in transactions to our FY22 performance.”

1 Based on Tyro Core Payments Business including Medipass

Statutory net loss after tax was $29.6 million after accounting for $11.2 million in amortisation of the intangible 
asset recognised on the completion of the Bendigo Alliance. Furthermore, statutory net loss includes $4.7 
million in transitional costs associated with moving the Bendigo merchants to the Tyro platform and $3.6 
million in losses from our investments in me&u and Paypa Plane. Excluding the impact of these costs, net 
profit before tax on a normalised basis was a loss of $16.1 million (FY21 $9.8 million).

Below follows a more detailed analysis of our financial performance on a Group and segmental basis.

Group Highlights:

Overall financial highlights for the Group in the 2022 
financial year include:
•  34% increase in transaction value to $34.2 billion 

(FY21: $25.5 billion).

•  10% growth in merchant numbers to 63,770 

merchants (FY21: 58,186 merchants).

•  283% increase in loan originations to a record of 

$99.1 million (FY21: $25.8 million).

•  24% increase in normalised gross profit to $148.5 

million (FY21: $119.7 million).

•  25% decrease in EBITDA to $10.7 million (FY21: 

$14.2 million) – FY21 had the benefit of $4.5 million 
in JobKeeper with no such benefit in FY22.

•  Well positioned balance sheet with $71.7 million in 
total capital and a capital ratio of 39% (FY21: $83.7 
million and 73%).

Highlights
After experiencing another year impacted by Covid lockdowns our payments business 
nonetheless produced the key highlights and performance metrics for FY22 below:
•  $34.2 billion (FY21: $25.5 billion) in 
transactions processed by Tyro 
merchants – a 34.4% lift.

•  eCommerce transaction value continued 

to grow generating $519.9 million in 
transaction value – a lift of 639.7% (FY21: 
$70.3 million).

•  A 10% growth in merchants choosing 
Tyro as their payments solution with 
63,770 merchants in our ecosystem.  
Of note, Tyro core payments business 
excluding Bendigo grew its merchant 
base to 46,376 merchants – a lift of 17% 
(FY21: 39,696).

•  Payments gross profit at $141.5 million 

(FY21: $110.8 million) – up 27.7%. 

•  Our Bendigo Bank Alliance generated 

transaction value of $5.2 billion. 
•  Our new health business which 

incorporates Medipass (acquired in May 
2021) added 2,263 new merchants 
through the year finishing the year with 
12,463 merchants generating transaction 
value of $3.3 billion (FY21: 2.8 billion) – 
with an additional 1,526 health providers 
exclusively using our health claiming 
solutions.

•  We strengthened our position as 
Australia’s 5th largest merchant 
acquiring bank by terminal count – 
109,248 terminals up 4.2% (FY21: 104,827).

•  Our retention metrics were maintained 
with our merchant churn rate at 10.5% 
(FY21: 11.3%) and transaction value churn 
rate of 9.2% (FY21: 8.7%).

•  We entered into an exclusive partnership 
to provide merchant acquiring services 
to Telstra’s business customers through 
over 350 Telstra retail stores and Telstra 
Business Technology Centres, as well 
as online. This new acquisition pipeline 
for Tyro has performed above our 
expectations and will prove to be a strong 
application channel going forward.

•  We launched our ‘Tyro Go’ mobile card 
reader in May 2022 – this new terminal 
type aims to  open our path into the 
trades and services vertical as well as 
better serve the micro segment.

•  ‘Tyro Connect’ continues to grow with 

2,188,189 transactions processed via the 
platform (FY21: 695,000)

•  348 point of sale system integrations – 

up from 322 in FY21.

•  Prompted brand awareness of 19% (FY21: 

20%).

Performance Review
FY22 can be summarised as the tale of two halves 
for our Payments business. The first half result was 
impacted by Covid induced lockdowns in NSW and 
ACT resulting in negative transaction value growth 
of 9.4% for H1 FY22 for those jurisdictions. Excluding 
those regions, the balance of Tyro’s core payments 
business generated transaction value growth of 
23.1% in H1 FY22. We lost an estimated $1.3 billion in 
transaction value in New South Wales alone between 
July and October 2021.  

As we moved out of lockdowns in October 2021, 
we returned to our more typical transaction value 
growth rates for our Tyro core portfolio and ended the 
second half of FY22 with growth of 21.4% with NSW 
and ACT returning to their historical growth profiles.

Our new Bendigo portfolio of merchants performed 
ahead of our expectation with a total transaction 
value contribution for FY22 of $5.2 billion, 4.5% ahead 
of our estimates when we announced the Alliance 
with Bendigo.

Annual Growth

The transaction value performance for the year 
was driven by our merchant acquisition success 
and the outperformance of our Hospitality and 
Retail verticals as consumers embraced life without 
lockdowns.

On the merchant acquisition front, our core Tyro 
portfolio added 12,908 new merchant applications, 
with Bendigo contributing a further 1,869 merchant 
applications equating to an average run-rate of 
close to 1,250 merchants per month – precisely 
on target with our merchant growth ambitions. At 
30 June 2022, we finished the year with a total of 
63,770 merchants, up 9.6% on FY21.  

Our Tyro core portfolio had 46,376 merchants 
(FY21: 39,696) and our Bendigo portfolio had 17,394 
merchants (FY21: 18,490).

Another positive indicator for our business is the 
stability of our merchant retention metrics which 
remain low when considering for the segments 
we serve, with transaction value churn remaining 
slightly up at 9.2% (FY21: 8.7%) and merchant 
number churn decreasing 80 basis points to 10.5% 
(FY21: 11.3%). 

The chart below (chart 4) shows the strong 
merchant acquisition over FY22 compared to FY21.

The second element of our strong transaction value 
growth was the outperformance of our hospitality 
and retails verticals. The concept of ‘revenge 
spending’ was evident as lockdowns ended and 
consumers embraced spending at hospitality and 
retail venues.  

Our hospitality vertical delivered $13.4 billion in 
transaction value for FY22, a lift of 18.6% (FY21: $11.3 
billion).  However, looking at the second half of FY22, 
hospitality delivered growth of 30.6%.  Our retail 
vertical delivered $9.8 billion in transaction value, a 
lift of 12.6% with the second half delivering growth of 
5.5%.

Our new health business, Tyro Health, ended FY22 
with 13,989 active merchants (which includes 
merchants with unique settlement arrangements), an 
increase of 29% (FY21: 10,791). 

We have also adopted a new ‘total locations’ 
reporting metric for our health business. Reporting 
total locations enables us to offer a holistic view of all 
customers of Tyro Health products, whilst factoring in 
the complexity that comes with the health industry. 
Tyro Health ended FY22 with 16,917 active locations 
across Australia using Tyro Health offerings, an 
increase of 31% (FY21: 12,922) with 28% of these 
locations actively using Tyro Health’s digital offering, 
up from 19% in FY21.

Off the back of the transaction value growth, our Payments business generated a 38.5% lift in revenue to 
$318.8 million (FY21: $230.2 million) and a 27.7% lift in gross profit to $141.5 million (FY21: $110.8 million).

Our net Merchant Acquiring Fee (MAF) margin was negatively impacted in the first three-quarters of FY22 as 
we deferred our usual annual merchant pricing adjustments which was scheduled to have taken place in H1 
FY22. The deferral being made to assist merchants during the heightened Covid lockdowns in the first half of 
FY22. We passed on a 2-basis point price increase for the last quarter of FY22 which brought our margins back 
in line with FY21 margins.

Chart 6 below provides an analysis of our margins over FY22 for the Group payments business compared 
to historical margins. As can be seen, our margins have returned to historical averages after passing on the 
2-basis point price increase in Q4 FY22. Furthermore, we did not provide any terminal rental relief in H2 FY22 
which assisted our Payments gross profit margin. The run-rate from Q4 is the first ‘clean’ period we have seen 
in 3 years not impacted by Covid and gives us a clear pathway to driving operating leverage from these margin 
levels.

Highlights
Our banking business produced the key highlights and performance metrics for FY22 
below:

•  Close to $100 million in total

283.4% (FY21: $25.8 million)

•  Maximum single advance increased to 
$350,000 from the previous maximum 
of $120,000

•  Average loan drawdown of $47,100 – 

up from $35,500 in FY21

•  $39.5 million of loans carried on 

the balance sheet at 30 June 2022 
compared to $15.4 million at 30 June 
2021.

•  Interest income of $4.9 million (FY21: 
$2.0 million) at an effective yield of 
20%

•  Low loss to origination rate achieved 

in FY22 of 0.6% (FY21: 2.8%). 

•  Deposit balances of $83.3 million

active accounts

Performance Review
Our merchant cash advance (MCA) loan product 
returned to record growth in the year with $99.1 
million in new originations (FY21: $25.8 million).  The 
features of our MCA were improved in the year 
to allow advances up to a maximum of $350,000 
(previous maximum $120,000) together with an 
improved automated approval process through the 
Tyro app.

The increase in originations has seen lending 
income from the MCA increase 149.8% in FY22 to 
$5.5 million. $4.9 million of revenue was generated 
from interest on the MCA and a further $0.6 million 
recorded in revenue as a fair value gain on the loans 
at 30 June 2022.  At 30 June 2022, loans of $39.5 
million were carried on the balance sheet compared 
to $15.4 million at 30 June 2021 with an average loan 
origination amount in the period of $47,100 compared 
to $35,500 in the pcp.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022CEO | MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT 
Our credit risk was well managed through 
the year with our loan loss to origination 
rate being the lowest annual rate since we 
launched our MCA product. Total losses of 
only $0.6 million were booked for the year 
compared to $0.7 million in FY21 resulting in 
a loan loss to origination rate of 0.61% (FY21: 
2.79%).

Tyro’s Bank Account continued to see 
encouraging uptake. This fee-free and 
interest paying business transaction deposit 
account had 5,097 active accounts in 
existence at 30 June 2022, representing a 
10.7% increase on the prior year (FY21: 4,603 
active accounts). Total deposits held by the 
Group on the Tyro Bank Account amounted to 
$79.2 million compared to $72.5 million at 30 
June 2021. The Group’s term deposit product 
continues to offer merchants an attractive 
interest rate with total term deposits of $4.1 
million on the balance sheet at 30 June 2022, 
up $1 million from 12 months ago. 

Gross profit of $5.2 million from Tyro’s 
banking business was up 84.0% (FY21: $2.8 
million) on a 95.0% gross profit margin.  This 
performance reflects the increased interest 
generated from MCA loan product together 
with lower interest expense on business 
deposit accounts and term deposit accounts.

Our banking business still only represents less 
than 5% of our total Group gross profit, but 
the results from FY22 show the potential of 
this business and the value that our banking 
licence brings to Tyro through the provision 
of capital in the form of deposits to fund the 
growth in our loan book.  Not many other 
unsecuritised lenders in Australia are in this 
envious position.

Operating Expenses to Gross Profit Margin

A positive EBITDA result of $10.7 million was 
achieved for the year and, whilst lower than the 
$14.2 million generated in FY21, reflected continuing 
investment in growth initiatives including the recently 
announced exclusive partnership with Telstra, tech 
wage pressures and first-time costs associated 
with the Medipass operation.  As mentioned our 

EBITDA performance was also impacted by the 
estimated absence of $1.3 billion in transaction 
value in NSW alone between July and October 2021 
from Covid lockdowns, translating to lost EBITDA of 
approximately $4.5 million to $5.0 million coupled 
with not receiving JobKeeper in FY22 ($4.5 million in 
FY21).  

Group net loss after tax

Our statutory EBIT loss for the reporting period was 
$26.1 million (FY21: loss of $29.3 million). 

Depreciation and amortisation was up 106.2% at $31.7 
million (FY21: $15.4 million) reflecting amortisation 
of $11.2 million on the accounting treatment of the 
Bendigo alliance (FY21: $0.7 million).  Excluding the 
Bendigo amortisation charge, depreciation and 
amortisation was up 39.8% reflecting new terminal 
purchases to meet the growth in merchant numbers 
(including terminals required for the Bendigo Bank 
Alliance).

On a normalised basis, excluding the impact of 
one-off project costs incurred as part of the Bendigo 
alliance, our EBIT loss was $15.0 million (FY21: $9.3 
million).

Net loss after tax on a statutory basis for FY22 was 
level with the prior year at $29.6 million (FY21: $29.8 
million). On a normalised basis, net loss before tax 
was $16.1 million (FY21: $9.8 million). No tax benefit 
was recognised in FY22 or FY21. At 30 June 2022 we 
have $47.6 million in recognised and unrecognised 
tax losses available for probable future use.

The Group is also well capitalised with a total 
capital ratio of 39%. The movement in the 
ratio from 73% at 30 June 2021 reflects the 
recognition of right of use assets of $33 million 
and office fit outs of $10 million, an increase in 
the lending book and losses for the year (before 
share-based payments expense). The total 
capital ratio remains well above APRA Prudential 
Capital Requirements.

With cash and financial investments of $122.8 
million (30 June 2021: $172.8 million) Tyro has 
sufficient liquidity in place to continue to fund 
its strategy. The movement in cash of $50.0 
million is reflective principally of the $24.1 
million increase in loan balances at 30 June 
2022 offset by $7.8 million in customer deposits 
held. Furthermore, the Group had terminal 
purchases of $14.0 million in the year, $5.0 
million in merchant remediation payments and 
an investment of $10.2 million relating to our new 
HQ.    

At 30 June 2022, Tyro had total assets of $410.1 
million of which 30.0% related to cash and 
financial investments. 40.0% of our total assets 
relate primarily to intangible assets recognised 
for customer contracts on the Bendigo Alliance 
and the right of use asset recognised on our new 
office lease.  The remaining 30% of total assets 
is made of customer loans held at year end, 
property plant and equipment and deferred tax 
assets. 

Tyro had total liabilities of $250.5 million of 
which 33.3% related to the merchant bank 
account deposits, with the remainder relating 
to commissions payable to Bendigo under the 
alliance agreement, trade and other liabilities, 
lease liabilities and provisions. The Group’s total 
assets exceeded its total liabilities by $159.6 
million.

Tyro has had a strong start to the first half FY23 with 
transaction values year-to-date 26 August 2022 
lifting 57% on the same period last year to $6.3 billion. 

Our eCommerce transactions continued to grow 
strongly albeit from a small base, recording $40.6 
million, up 16% on the same period last year. 

Our payments business for July 2022 on a normalised 
basis (post Bendigo gross profit share), generated a 
gross profit of $14.1 million an increase of 46%. 

In our banking business, loan originations in the first 
8 weeks of the financial year totalled $19.6 million up 
91% on the same period last year.

Finally, EBITDA for July 2022 came in at $2.2 million 
at an operating leverage of 86%. 

We have remained focussed on reducing employee 
head count with a ~30 headcount reduction in both 
permanent and contractor positions from May 2022 
as shown in chart 1 and will continue to focus on 
customer growth and margin improvement into FY23.

For the first time, Tyro has provided its earnings 
guidance range for FY23 as set out in table 6 below5. 

The Group is targeting to be positive free cash flow4 
exiting FY23 (after all operating expenses and capital 
expenditure) and based on the financial position at 
30 June 2022, Tyro’s cash and financial investments 
are expected to be sufficient to support the Group 
through to positive free cash flow.

Gross profit is stated as normalised gross profit, namely adjusted for Bendigo Alliance support fees associated with transition of Bendigo merchants to the Tyro platform. 
Bendigo gross profit share is not deducted from statutory gross profit but deducted to calculate normalised gross profit.

(after Bendigo commission).

Tyro uses EBITDA as a non-IFRS measure of business performance, which excludes the non-cash impact of share-based payments expense, share of losses from 
associates, and other significant one-off costs.

Free cash flow is calculated before changes in banking funds and timing differences relating to net scheme receivables. It is calculated as EBITDA before share based 
payments adjusted for non-cash items in Tyro’s working capital movements, statutory adjustments (including rent payments) and capital expenditure including internally 
generated intangibles. Terminal capital expenditure includes both new and replacement terminals.

market or macroeconomic conditions, and are based on a number of key assumptions which may not prove to be correct, or which may change over time, including no 
lockdowns, no material changes to current business plan and no material change in the regulatory environment.

During the ordinary course of business, the Group is exposed to credit risk, operational risk, market risk and liquidity risk. For details on the management of these risks,

Sustainability is not only about our relationship 
with our merchants - it is also about our 
responsibility to the environment, social issues, 
equity, engagement with the community, good 
governance and ethical standards. 

Following on from our first Sustainability Report 
released in FY21, we have evolved our reporting 
and have adopted a new disclosure format 
for our annual report suite to highlight how we 
create value for all our stakeholders including 
enhanced disclosure on the use of our Capitals 
and providing a consolidated review of our 
financial, economic, social and environmental 
performance on matters material to our strategy 
and our ability to create and sustain value into 
the future. More details of this disclosure can 
be found in our comprehensive Sustainability 
Report.  This is just the start of our move to a 
more comprehensive and more transparent 
review of our business which we will build on in 
FY23 and beyond. To view our 2022 Sustainability

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022SUSTAINABILITY“We are proud of our open, 
inclusive, and collaborative culture 
which has at its foundation our 
guiding values.”

Our People and Culture

Our people are at the core of who we are. We have 
a strong emphasis on recruiting and retaining top 
talent that enhances our strong values-driven culture. 
The accumulation of our collective experience, 
shared values, and individual skills has allowed Tyro to 
deliver industry-leading products and solutions.

Our Values

We are proud of our open, inclusive and collaborative 
culture which has, at its foundation our guiding values. 
We foster a high performance, values-driven culture 
and our most recent employee survey showed that 
71% of our team members are proud to work at Tyro 
and 78% would recommend it as a great place to work. 

We recently introduced a new teamwork value at Tyro 
to complement and enhance our existing values. Our 
new value: 

“Win together - We are a united team. With growth 
mindsets and without ego, we embrace diversity to 
collaborate, innovate, and accelerate”

Diversity and Inclusion

Tyro’s workforce has grown and diversified as our 
merchants, products and services have expanded. 
Our team members speak 53 languages and have an 
average age of 35. Our Executive Leadership Team 
(XLT) is 21% female while 12.5% of our senior managers 
are female and 49% of our other managers are female. 
We ended FY22 with 15% more people than the prior 
year reflecting organic head count growth to better 
service our merchants. In total we have 612 team 
members.

As part of our commitment to diversity, we initiated 
a new cultural and ethnicity diversity survey in FY22.  
We surveyed our Board of Directors and Executive 
Leadership Team to obtain an understanding and 
acknowledgment of our cultural differences. We will 
be rolling this survey out to all our team members in 
FY23. The purpose of this survey is to collect data 
about where our people come from, what groups 
they identify with, and what languages they speak 
which will assist us to dispel negative stereotypes and 
personal biases about different groups and setting 
meaningful social targets to increase representation of 
currently under-represented groups.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022SUSTAINABILITYProfessional Development and Tyro Graduate Program

We introduced LinkedIn Learning for all our 
employees, offering free access to over 8,000 
learning courses and every member of our team is 
supported with bespoke training that builds their 
career in line with their development plan. Our links 
to Australian Institute of Management and our 
customised Tyro Leader Program means that all our 
managers have the opportunity to excel.

We launched our Tech Graduate Program in June 2021 
with 12 graduates and 4 interns joining over the course 
of the year.  This initiative is a win-win for both our 
grads and Tyro. We benefit from great new energy and 
ideas and the opportunity to help grow the careers of 
some young technologists, all the while attracting top 
talent to our team. 

Below is a summary of our diversity outcomes achieved in FY22 against our targets.

operate. Positive relationships with the community 
allow us to build trust and long-term sustainability of 
our operations.

Donations are not included in the merchant’s daily 
settlement, they are kept separate and settled directly 
with the charities.  

Our employees want to give back, so we make it easy 
for them. Our team members proactively engage 
with their local communities through organising 
fundraising events, assisting in community projects 
and donating their expertise where needed by 
communities important to them. We offer our team 
the support and resources they may need to assist in 
these proactive initiatives including the ability to take 
a paid volunteer day annually.

Although we are still a relatively small company that 
is not generating profits, we are actively looking at 
ways in which we can make corporate charitable 
contributions and become involved in corporate 
social responsible projects. Current projects that 
we are actively looking at include how we can use 
our payments expertise to roll-out new payments 
methods to charitable organisations. An example of a 
charity that we are currently working with is Jeans for 
Genes (discussed below).

Tyro also actively contributes to public policy debates 
and industry reviews to improve the payments system 
in Australia and customer outcomes from those 
reviews. 

Sheep Dog

We have developed charitable donation functionality 
for our merchants which allows cardholders to make 
donations to charities at participating Tyro merchants. 

In FY22, our merchants raised over $50,000 for their 
selected charities through utilising this technology. 

Jeans for Genes

Jeans for Genes is one of Australia’s oldest and most 
beloved charity days supporting vital research to find 
treatments and cures for children’s genetic diseases 
like cancer, cystic fibrosis, and life-threatening 
metabolic disorders.

The Children’s Medical Research Institute (CMRI) relies 
on the money raised by Jeans for Genes Day, and 
other community fundraising, to keep its labs open 
and, for nearly 27 years, Australians have seen the 
streets awash with denim, with volunteers out in force 
to sell merchandise and collect donations.

Recognising that charities have been hard hit by the 
COVID-19 pandemic, Tyro has again worked with the 
CMRI by providing 50 terminals at no upfront cost. 
Furthermore, more than 30 of our dedicated Tyros 
volunteered their time on 5 August to assist with 
fundraising for such an amazing cause.

The Environment 
Limiting our environmental impact is part of our social 
license granted to us by our merchants and their 
customers. Although we have a limited emissions 
inventory, we recognise that a business’s impact on 
the environment is a concern to all our stakeholders. 

In 2021, the Board adopted Tyro’s first Sustainability 
Framework which included the management of 
environmental risks and opportunities. We established 
a sustainability champions group to further implement 
environmental change across Tyro. The sustainability 
working group raises awareness, identifies strategic 
sustainable initiatives and focuses its efforts on 
reducing Tyro’s carbon footprint. 

We are committed to reducing our carbon inventory 
to achieve ‘Net Zero’. In FY22 we signed on to Climate 
Active Australia and are currently undertaking our 
accreditation process to achieve ‘Net Zero’.  As part of 
this accreditation, we will acquire 4,250 tCO2e carbon 
offsets in FY23 for those emissions that cannot yet 
be reduced in order to obtain our status as a carbon 
neutral company. Ultimately, our strategy will see us 
target ‘Net Zero’ without the need to acquire carbon 
offsets.

Further details on climate change risk mitigation and 
progress against targets can be found within our 2022 
Sustainability Report. To view the 2022 Sustainability 
Report please refer to: https://investors.tyro.com/
investor-centre/?page=sustainability

A merchant can configure a different charity per 
location and enable the feature per terminal.

8.  Material risks to business strategies and prospects for future financial 

years

The potential risks that could adversely affect the Group’s achievement of its business strategies and financial 
prospects in future years are described below. This section does not purport to list every risk that may be 
associated with the Group’s business now or in the future. There is no guarantee or assurance that the importance 
of these risks will not change, or other risks emerge. While the Group aims to manage risks in order to avoid adverse 
impacts on its financial and reputational standing, some risks are outside the control of the Group. 

The management and oversight of risk is ultimately overseen by our Board and Risk Committee. We have an 
integrated Risk Management Framework in place to identify, assess, manage and report risks on a consistent basis. 
This framework has been developed to accord with the tolerance levels set out in our Risk Appetite Statement.

BUSINESS UNIT RISK MANAGEMENT 

To help ensure we operate within the defined risk appetite set by the Board, our approach to managing our risk is 
underpinned by a ‘three lines’ of defence model:

•  First Line of Defence: Business managers are responsible for the identification and management of risk as part 

of their day-to-day responsibilities; 

•  Second Line of Defence: The Risk team is accountable for providing risk advice, oversight and challenge to the 
business. They maintain the Risk Management Framework and report to Board on the risk appetite, risk profiles, 
frameworks, policies and other risk management tools to guide the business; and 

•  Third Line of Defence: Internal Audit is accountable for independently assuring that the Risk Management 
Framework is operating effectively and our risk management practices are appropriate in the context of 
statutory and regulatory obligations.

year. 

11.  Share-based payments
Details of share-based payments are disclosed in our Remuneration Report on pages 69 to 103 and in Note 14 of 
the Financial Report.

12.  Additional information indemnities and insurance
Clause 54 of the Company’s Constitution provides that every person who is or has been a Director or Secretary of 
the Group must be indemnified by the Company, to the extent permitted by law, against:

• 

• 

liabilities incurred by the person as an officer of the Company or a subsidiary; and

for legal costs incurred by the person in defending any proceedings which relate to a liability incurred by that 
person as an officer of the Company.

The Company has executed Deeds of Indemnity, Insurance and Access, consistent with this Clause, in favour 
of all current Directors of the Company, the Company Secretary who is named in this Directors’ Report and the 
Company’s current Chief Financial Officer. The Company has also entered into equivalent Deeds of Indemnity with 
former Directors and Secretaries of the Company, in accordance with the Company’s previous Constitution. Each 
Deed indemnifies those persons for the full amount of all such liabilities including costs and expenses, subject to 
their terms.

For the year ended 30 June 2022, no amounts have been paid pursuant to indemnities (FY21: Nil). The Company’s 
Constitution also allows the Company to pay insurance premiums for contracts insuring the current and former 
Directors and Secretaries of the Company in relation to any such liabilities and legal costs. 

During or since the end of the financial year, the Company has paid the premium in respect of contracts insuring 
each of the Directors and the Secretary named in this Directors’ Report, the former Directors, and the officers 
of the Company as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The class of officers insured by the policy includes 
all officers of the Company. The terms of the contracts of insurance prohibit the disclosure of the nature of the 
liabilities insured against and the amount of the premium. As at the date of this report, no amounts have been 
claimed or paid in respect of these insurance contracts other than the premium referred to above.

To the extent permitted by law, the Company has agreed to indemnify its auditors, Ernst & Young, as part of the 
terms of its audit engagement agreement against claims by third parties and resulting liabilities, losses, damages, 
costs and expenses arising from the audit (for an unspecified amount). This indemnity does not extend to matters 
finally determined to have arisen from Ernst & Young’s negligent, wrongful or wilful acts or omissions.

65

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022DIRECTORS’ REPORT13.  Proceedings on behalf of the Group
In relation to the terminal outage incident in January 2021, a class action proceeding was filed against Tyro in 
October 2021 in the Federal Court of Australia on behalf of customers impacted by the terminal outage incident. 
The class action is the subject of Tyro’s previous ASX announcement on 20 October 2021. The class action alleges 
that Tyro engaged in misleading and deceptive conduct, contravened certain statutory guarantees and breached 
certain contractual warranties. The claim seeks compensation and damages from Tyro. Tyro denies the allegations 
and is defending the proceedings. 

It is currently not possible to reliably determine the ultimate impact on the Group of the claims raised in this 
proceeding and accordingly no provision has been recognised.

No other proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the Group with leave of the Court under 
Section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001. 

14.  Non-audit services
The Group may decide to employ its auditor on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where the 
auditor’s expertise and experience with the Group is important.

The Board has considered the position and, in accordance with the advice received from the Audit Committee, is 
satisfied that the provision of the non-audit services is compatible with the general standard of independence for 
auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001.

The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the auditor, as set out below, did not 
compromise the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:

•  all non-audit services have been reviewed by the Audit Committee to ensure they do not impact the impartiality 

and objectivity of the auditor; and 

•  none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 
Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a 
management or a decision-making capacity for the Group, acting as advocate for the Group or jointly sharing 
economic risk and rewards.

The non-audit services paid to the auditors (Ernst & Young) was for services relating to tax compliance amounting 
to $17,000. Details of the audit and non-audit fees paid or payable for services provided by the auditors are 
detailed in Note 24 of the Financial Report. 

15.  Auditor’s independence
A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under Section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is 
set out on page 105 and forms part of the Directors’ Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2022. 

16.  Rounding of amounts
The Group is of a kind referred to in Legislative Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and 
Investments Commission, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the Directors’ Report. Amounts in the 
Directors’ Report have been rounded off in accordance with that Legislative Instrument to the nearest thousand 
dollars, or in certain cases, to the nearest dollar. This Directors’ Report is made in accordance with a resolution of 
the Directors.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORT 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Dear Shareholders, 

On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to present 
our Remuneration Report for the financial year 
ended 30 June 2022.

The past three years have certainly presented 
us with numerous challenges. From the 
devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic 
to the terminal outage we experienced in 
January 2021 to the significant macro-economic 
climate that we find ourselves in, including 
inflationary pressure and rising interest rates that 
is impacting all tech stocks across the globe, 
our Tyro team has truly been tested in most 
challenging business conditions. 

I am pleased to report that through all these 
challenges, our team at Tyro continues to deliver 
quality service and products to our existing 
and new merchants. This is evidenced in the 
growth delivered for the year as highlighted 
in our Annual Report. Transaction values are 
up 34% for the year, normalised gross profit is 
up 24%, and over 14,000 new merchants were 
added to our portfolio. This growth speaks to the 
significant contribution that every Tyro has made 
in FY22. I would like to thank all Tyros for their 
dedication, teamwork and commitment to put 
our customers first. 

Outside of our financial and operational 
performance, our Tyro team has also been 
working on prioritising cultural, gender and social 
equity, addressing the impact of climate change 
on our business, and focussing on the demand 
for talent. As part of this work, I am proud to 
announce that Tyro has adopted a new team 
value in FY22 which we call our ‘Win Together’ 
value. This new value supports our existing values 
of ‘Be Good’, ‘Wow the Customer’, ‘Commit to 
Greatness’ and ‘Stay Hungry’ and recognises 
that to achieve our mission and vision, we can 
only do so by being a united team with a growth 
mindset that embraces diversity, enabling us to 
collaborate, innovate, and accelerate.     

"This growth speaks to the 
immense contribution that 
every Tyro has made in FY22."

Changes to remuneration  
in FY22
In FY22, the Board has made a number 
of remuneration decisions to better align 
remuneration with shareholder wealth creation 
whilst placing a greater focus on linking 
remuneration to performance and retention. The 
changes made to the remuneration framework 
were as follows:

•  With the rapid acceleration seen in the 
demand for talent in FY22 and related 
increased remuneration requirements, we 
refreshed our market data for impacted roles. 
Our remuneration strategy is to provide fixed 
annual remuneration (comprised of base 
salary and superannuation) between the 50th 
and 75th percentile, with technology roles 
necessarily skewed to the higher end of the 
range. This refreshed data was used as part of 
our annual remuneration review with increases 
to fixed remuneration provided in January 
2022.    

•  To further attract and retain talent, we 

• 

introduced a long-term retention incentive 
plan in the form of service rights for all our 
team members (excluding the Executive 
KMP and XLT). These service rights vest 
equally over a 3-year period with the vesting 
condition being that the employee remains 
employed by Tyro at each vesting date.   
In FY21, our STI plan for Executive KMP and 
the XLT was delivered 75% in cash and 25% 
in equity (Service Rights) that vest in 4 years 
with no performance hurdle but subject 
to clawback provisions and irrespective of 
continuous service. For all other employees 
the STI award was delivered 25% cash and 
75% in service rights vesting in equal tranches 
over a 3-year period with a 24-month holding 
lock post vesting of each tranche irrespective 
of continuous service. Through engagement 
with our team, we have refined the plan for 
FY22 for all employees other than Executive 
KMP and XLT to allow for 33% of the award 
to be paid in cash with the remaining 67% 
issued as service rights that vest equally 
monthly over a 12-month period from the 
grant date with the vesting condition being 
that the employee remain employed by Tyro 
through the 12-month period. Furthermore, 
we removed the 24-month holding lock from 
the award. The objective of these refinements 
is to improve the value of the award for 
employees over the short-term while still 
ensuring that an element of retention is built 
into the award. 

71

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORTChanges to remuneration in 
FY22 (continued)
•  A further refinement we made to our FY22 

STI plan was to amend the weighting of the 
component parts that make up the award. 
The financial component which previously 
amounted to 60% of the total award was 
reduced to 50% in FY22 and the customer 
satisfaction metric (measured using Net 
Promoter Score (NPS) and merchant uptake 
of multiple products) was increased to 20% 
from 10% in FY21. This change was made to 
enhance both the Board and management’s 
emphasis placed on our value to ‘Wow the 
Customer’. 

•  Following engagement with stakeholders 

on the FY22 LTI Plan, the Board has refined 
the FY23 LTI Plan by amending the financial 
performance hurdles applicable to vesting 
for the plan. 50% of the plan award will now 
vest based on the achievement of a statutory 
EBITDA performance hurdle in FY25 while a 
new performance hurdle representing the 
remaining 50% of the plan award has been 
added based on the achievement of a TSR 
ranking relative to the XTX index at 30 June 
2025. This change has been made to better 
align our LTI Plan with shareholder wealth 
creation of the medium to long term. 

Evolving our way of working
We introduced numerous Company defining 
initiatives in FY22 to better support our team, to 
retain and attract the very best talent and to build 
on our high-performing culture. 

•  We moved into our new offices in Sydney in 
April 2022. This move was necessitated by 
our previous lease coming to an end at the 
close of 2021. Our new Sydney HQ has been 
designed with flexibility in mind and to enable 
team members to do their best work, whatever 
their day may involve, be that focussed work, 
meetings, attending company-wide all hands 
sessions we call Mindshares, catching up with 
fellow Tyros over lunch, a game of table tennis, 
or Friday drinks. The energy that this move has 
brought back into our team, after the extended 
lockdowns that all Tyros endured over Covid, 
has been refreshing to see. We want to create 
an even greater place to work and grow where 
our strategy, purpose and values are ‘alive’, 
with all Tyros empowered to deliver their best 
work and drive amazing outcomes for Tyro. 
•  We also introduced a new ‘Way of Work’ in 
late April 2022. We have adopted a ‘remote-
friendly’ (rather than ‘remote-first’) business 
model for employees, and we recognise that 
flexibility is about more than just remote 
working. Employees can now choose when 
they want to come into the office, and we 
have empowered our senior leaders and our 
teams to develop a model that best fits their 
needs.

•  We are very pleased to also have officially 

launched our Tech Graduate Program in June 
2021 with 12 graduates and 4 interns joining 
over the course of the year. This initiative is 
a win-win for both our grads and Tyro. We 
benefit from great new energy and ideas 
and the opportunity to help grow the careers 
of some young technologists, all the while 
attracting top talent to our team. 

"We are confident that we have developed 
a robust and fit for purpose remuneration 
framework that serves Tyro well."

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORTLooking ahead to FY23
We are committed as a Board to continuously 
reviewing the effectiveness of our remuneration 
framework and always welcome your feedback 
on our Remuneration Report. We are confident 
that we have developed a robust and fit for 
purpose remuneration framework that serves 
Tyro well. It appropriately balances fixed 
annual remuneration for all Tyros to reward 
core performance, has a STI that underpins the 
achievement of financial and operating targets, 
and a LTI that is focussed on delivering long term 
shareholder wealth creation.

I look forward to presenting our Remuneration 
Report to you at the Tyro Annual General Meeting 
to be held on 24 November 2022.

Yours sincerely,

Remuneration outcomes  
for FY22
With respect to the annual salary reviews 
conducted in January 2022 and our stated 
strategy to provide fixed annual remuneration 
(comprised of base salary and superannuation) 
between the 50th and 75th percentile (based on 
independent benchmark data), with technology 
roles skewed to the higher end of the range, 
we provided our team with an overall average 
remuneration increase of 4.3% (excluding the 
Executive KMP and XLT). Executive KMP and XLT 
were provided with an average increase of 8%.   

The overall FY22 STI outcome came in at 46% 
(FY21: 89%) of target with a total STI of $4.9 
million paid to employees. Of this, $2.1 million will 
be paid in cash with the remaining $2.8 million to 
be issued as service rights.  

The FY22 LTI Plan was made available to 77 
employees made up of Executive KMP, the XLT 
and key employees identified by the CEO and 
the Board. Performance Rights were granted in 
February 2022 to these employees with vesting 
based on the achievement of a defined range of 
statutory EBITDA outcomes in FY24 – this plan 
is not due to be tested until FY24 and as such 
no vesting has occurred. No vesting has taken 
place on the FY19, FY20 or FY21 LTI plans as the 
performance hurdles for vesting were not met in 
FY22. These will be retested in FY23 again. 

Non-executive Director fees for 
FY22
Since listing on the ASX in 2019 no changes 
were made to Non-executive Director fees until 
FY22. In FY21, the Board undertook a review 
of Non-executive Directors’ fees and received 
independent advice from external consultants, 
which highlighted that our Non-executive 
Directors’ fees had fallen below market peers. 
In order to ensure that Tyro remains able to 
attract and retain directors of appropriate skill 
and experience, the Board resolved to make an 
increase in base Non-executive Directors’ fees 
that would commence in FY22 of 29.6%, which 
along with the fees for our two additional Non-
executive Directors appointed during FY22, the 
total fees are still well within the Non-executive 
Director fee pool of $1.4 million approved in 2019. 
The Chair fees have not changed from the prior 
year.

2.  Remuneration governance

Tyro’s remuneration governance and framework is overseen by the People Committee (the Committee) as a 
formal committee of the Board. The Committee consists of five Non-executive Directors, with one performing the 
role of Chair. This Committee provides Tyro with a robust governance framework to ensure remuneration policies, 
practices and outcomes are reasonable and consistent with shareholder expectations. The diagram below provides 
an overview of this framework.

The Committee considers matters relating to the remuneration of KMP as well as the remuneration policies of the 
Group generally. This includes reviewing and recommending to the Board, the remuneration of the Chair and Non-
executive Directors, Executive KMP and other direct reports to the CEO. 

The principal responsibilities of the Committee are outlined in the People Committee Charter, available on the 
corporate governance page of the Group’s website: https://investors.tyro.com/investor-centre/?page=corporate-
governance. Under the Committee Charter, the majority of Committee members must be independent non-
executive directors and the Chair of the Committee must be an independent non-executive director. Currently, all 
members of the Committee (including the Chair of the Committee) are independent non-executive directors.

Details of members of the Committee and their background are included in the Directors’ Report on pages 57 to 
67. The following diagram represents the Group’s remuneration decision-making structure.

2.1  Use of remuneration advisors
The People Committee engages independent remuneration advisors on an as needs basis to provide information 
regarding market dynamics, trends and regulatory developments, specifically those impacting financial services 
companies. The People Committee and the Board consider this information along with other market insights to 
determine what would be the most appropriate recommendations to make for Tyro regarding remuneration.

In FY22, KPMG was engaged to provide benchmarking data for Non-executive Directors, Executive KMP and 
the executive leadership team (XLT) for the purposes of informing the People Committee of the current market 
positioning of Non-executive Directors, KMP and the XLT against Tyro’s benchmarking peers. KPMG was paid 
$64,900 for the benchmarking review and the review of the existing remuneration framework’s compliance with 
Banking Executive Accountability Regime (BEAR). 

Godfrey Remuneration Group was also engaged in FY22 relating to services for providing remuneration data for 
Executives. Godfrey Remuneration Group was paid $16,500 for these services.

The Board is satisfied that no remuneration recommendations (as defined in the Corporations Act 2001) were 
provided by KPMG, Godfrey Remuneration Group or any other external remuneration advisors during FY22.

2.2  Remuneration Report approval at 2021 Annual General Meeting (AGM)

3.1  Approach to remuneration
Our approach to remuneration is summarised in the following table with a detailed analysis of each component of 
Tyro’s Remuneration Framework provided in Sections 3.2 to 3.5 of this Report.

Remuneration Principles

Tyro Connect

M&A and 
other strategic 
partnerships

Align reward with strategic 
objectives.

Our remuneration framework aligns both the short-term and long-term rewards 
of employees and Executives with Tyro’s strategic goals and core values and 
linking variable pay outcomes to both Group and individual performance.

Attract, motivate and retain a 
highly skilled team.

Our most important competitive advantage is our people and our values-driven 
approach to ‘wowing’ the customer. To attract and retain our talented team, 
we target remuneration at levels that ensure we can access the limited and 
competitive talent pool to drive our business forward.

Our approach to remuneration also motivates team members to drive overall 
customer satisfaction and perform well in all market conditions and economic 
cycles.

Incentivise and reward high 
performance that delivers 
sustainable long-term value 
creation and reflects the 
interests of our shareholders 
as the owners of our business.

We aim to generate strong alignment between our Team and Executive’s reward 
and shareholder outcomes through the structure of our short-term incentive plan 
and long-term incentive plan.

It is critical that our Team and Executives have an ownership mindset that 
enhances Tyro’s long-term value, rather than focusing on short-term gains.

Be transparent, easy to 
understand.

Be transparent, easy to understand and deliver remuneration outcomes that 
meet team member and external stakeholder expectations.

Promoting gender pay 
equality.

We are committed to equal pay for equal work and have recently introduced 
policies to review our gender pay equality on an annual basis. 

Each year we also complete the Workplace Gender Equality Agency gender 
equality program reporting. The findings from this annual report help us tailor our 
approach to ensure we’re achieving pay parity.

3.2  Remuneration benchmarking and review
In order to meet our commitment of ensuring remuneration is market-competitive together with attracting world 
class talent, we adopt a benchmarking approach to setting remuneration levels for our Non-executive Directors, 
Executive KMP and Executive Leadership Team.

As a technology company with a banking licence, we do not have any direct ASX-listed peers of a similar size. 
As such, we use two comparator groups. The first comparator group is based on the market capitalisation of ASX 
listed companies with ASX rankings within a range of 20 above and 20 below (40 companies in total) that of Tyro at 
the time of benchmarking (excluding REITs and secondary ASX listings).

The second comparator group, used to validate the primary market capitalisation peer group, was based on 
financial services companies in the ASX300, and companies in the ASX 300 Diversified Financials Index, excluding 
those that are above a market capitalisation of $5.0 billion and below that of $0.5 billion (excluding REITs, insurance 
companies, income trusts and secondary ASX listings). This group consists of 31 companies against which our 
remuneration is benchmarked.

We will take into account the fall in our market capitalisation over the past 6 months as part of the benchmarking 
review we undertake in FY23 acknowledging that many of the companies against whom we benchmark have 
experienced similar falls in market capitalisation.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORT3.3  Design of FY22 STI Plan
The FY22 STI Plan is designed to reward for the achievement of annual goals set in line with Tyro’s strategy and 
reflecting key growth drivers to deliver returns for shareholders. The Plan provides the STI framework for the CEO, 
Executive KMP and XLT members and employees of the Group. 

There were two changes to the FY22 STI design with the performance measures changing relating to the 
amendment of the weighting of the financial measure from 60% to 50% and the increase of the customer 
satisfactions measure increasing in weighting from 10% to 20%. A second change was made for all employees 
other than Executive KMP and XLT to allow for 33% of the award to be paid in cash with the remaining 67% issued 
as service rights that vest equally monthly over a 12-month period from the grant date.

The number of employees who will participate in the STI for FY22 is 571 (FY21: 406). 

In terms of the Executive KMP and XLT, the CEO has a target STI potential of 50% of FAR. Excluding the CEO, a 
target STI potential of between 35% to 50% of Executive KMP FAR is available as an STI. All other XLT and other 
qualifying employees are allocated a potential target incentive amount of between 15% and 55% of FAR.

The STI award for Executive KMP and the XLT is delivered 75% in cash and 25% in equity (Service Rights) that 
vest in 4-years with no performance hurdle but subject to malus and clawback provisions and irrespective of 
continuous service. For all other employees, the STI award is delivered 33% cash and 67% in equity (Service Rights) 
vesting in equal tranches over a 12-month period with no holding lock post vesting of each tranche irrespective of 
continuous service.

An analysis of how the FY22 STI is calculated, specifically how the financial incentive pool is created, and the 
measures and weighting applied to financial performance outcomes and customer performance outcomes is set 
out below.

Individual Key Performance Indicators for FY22 - 10% of target STI:

Individual KPIs are set at the start of each financial year for each team member and focus on providing a 
measure of individual performance together with placing emphasis on the achievement of individual goals, 
the development of team members skills and expertise and challenging team members to achieve at their 
highest level.

These KPIs are reviewed annually and form the basis of the evaluation of an individual’s achievement against 
the 10% target. For FY22, the average achievement for all employees came out at 75%.

3.3.4  Use of discretion:

Grant of an STI is at the discretion of the Board and is assessed following the conclusion of the relevant 
financial year. Whether an STI is granted will depend on satisfaction of various criteria, including individual 
performance against key performance indicators, customer performance outcomes and financial performance 
outcomes, as determined by the Board.

The Board retains the full discretion in relation to revising STI targets where material changes have occurred 
during the year. Furthermore, all equity granted in relation to STI awards to Executive KMP and XLT are 
subject to malus and clawback provisions and the Board has the discretion to adjust, lapse/forfeit, or require 
repayment of an award under the terms of the Group’s malus and clawback policy.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORT3.4  Design of FY22 LTI Plan
The FY22 LTI is designed to reward participants for their contributions towards achieving the Group’s strategic 
priorities orientated around delivering long term sustainable shareholder value creation.

The FY22 LTI Plan is open to the CEO, Executive KMP, Executive Leadership Team (XLT) and other nominated 
employees of Tyro and has been fulfilled via an issuance of performance rights. For FY22, there were 77 
participants invited to participate in the plan (FY21: 43 participants).

There were no changes to the design of the plan in FY22, however the performance measures in place were 
amended from FY21 to focus on long-term shareholder wealth creation centred on an EBITDA profitability measure 
rather than gross profit and revenue measures as used in prior years as Tyro moves to profitability.

3.4.1  Determination of the number of rights awarded under the LTI plan:

The number of performance rights to be issued to each participant will be determined by reference to:

•  the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of Tyro shares traded in the 10 trading days commencing on the 

day following the announcement of Tyro’s FY21 full year result; and

•  each participant’s prescribed LTI entitlement that falls within the participant’s Total Remuneration Opportunity 
(TRO) as approved under the remuneration framework. For FY22, the maximum LTI potential is 64.5% of the 
CEOs Fixed Annual Remuneration (FAR), between 40% and 50% for the Executive KMP and a maximum LTI 
potential of between 15% to 40% for the XLT. Any other nominated employees have been allocated a maximum 
LTI potential of between 7.5% to 20% of their FAR in FY22.

In FY22, the number of performance rights that will qualify for exercise will depend on the vesting percentage 
determined by reference to Tyro’s FY24 statutory EBITDA (which excludes share-based payment expenses).

Rights granted to participants.

Each Performance Right granted entitles the holder to one share on exercise. Shares 
resulting from an exercise of Performance Rights rank equally with other shares, and 
shareholders are entitled to the same dividend and voting rights specified in our 
constitution.

Holding lock period

Any Vested Shares issued to participants following the vesting of the FY22 Performance 
Rights, will remain subject to a 12-month holding lock, commencing on the date that the 
Vested Shares are issued.

During the Holding Lock Period, the Vested Shares cannot be transferred, sold, 
encumbered or otherwise dealt with.

Clawback provisions

The Performance Rights to be subject to forfeiture prior to vesting and thereafter any 
shares issued will be subject to claw back for up to a further 2-year period following 
the expiry of the ‘holding lock (i.e. awards can be forfeited up to 6 years from the Grant 
Date).

Amendments

Other terms

The Board may amend the terms of the plan without consent of the participants if the 
amendment does not reduce the rights of the participants.

The rules of the plan include other terms relating to the administration, transfer, 
termination and variation of the plan.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORT3.5  Design of FY23 LTI Plan
Following engagement with stakeholders on the FY22 LTI Plan, the Board has refined the FY23 LTI Plan by 
amending the financial performance hurdles applicable to vesting for the plan. 50% of the plan award will now vest 
based on the achievement of a statutory EBITDA performance hurdle in FY25 while a new performance hurdle 
representing the remaining 50% of the plan award has been added based on the achievement of a TSR ranking 
relative to the XTX index at 30 June 2025. This change has been made to better align our LTI Plan with shareholder 
wealth creation of the medium to long term.     

The number of Performance Rights that qualify for exercise will depend on satisfaction of the following 
performance hurdles:

EBITDA hurdle (50% of the Award)

50% of a participant’s total LTI entitlement will be subject to satisfaction of an EBITDA hurdle with the vesting 
percentage determined by reference to Tyro’s statutory EBITDA (before share-based payments) 3-year CAGR to 
FY25 as specified below:

1. 

Tyro uses EBITDA as a non-IFRS measure of business performance, which excludes the non-cash impact of share-based payments 
expense, share of losses from associates, expenses associated with the terminal connectivity issue and the IPO and other significant one-
off costs. Refer to the page 14 of the FY22 Investor Presentation for a reconciliation of statutory to normalised results.

2.  Free cash flow is calculated before changes in banking funds and timing differences relating to net scheme receivables. It is calculated as 
EBITDA before share-based payments adjusted for non-cash items in Tyro’s working capital movements, statutory adjustments (including 
rent payments) and capital expenditure including internally generated intangibles. Terminal capital expenditure includes both new and 
replacement terminals.

Financial performance outcomes linked to FY22 STI - Financial component representing 50% of total STI:
The actual result for FY22 was the achievement of 28.9% gross profit growth from FY21 (excluding JobKeeper 
benefits received in FY21) and an operating margin adjustment factor of 0.99 resulting in 50.4% of the target 
being achieved. The margin adjustment factor relates to the decreased operating margin of 92% achieved in FY22 
compared to 90% in FY21 (before lending and non-lending losses and the JobKeeper benefit received in FY21).

COMMENTARY

Gross profit growth was driven by a 34.2% 
increase in transaction value and a 10% increase 
in merchant count.

The JobKeeper benefits for FY21 have been 
excluded from gross profit for FY21 as this was 
excluded from the STI calculation for FY21. No 
benefit was received in FY22.

28.9% growth achieved resulting in 51% of 
financial STI component at target becoming 
available.

The increase in operating expenses reflects 
higher headcount and wage inflation together 
with higher administration costs.

Normalised operating leverage for FY22 
amounted to 92.8% compared to operating 
leverage for FY21 (before JobKeeper) of 91.6%

5.3  CEO | Managing Director Key Performance Indicators
Under the FY22 STI Plan, Executive KMP and the XLT are required to individually achieve against a balanced 
scorecard that comprises a mixture of financial and non-financial key performance indicators (KPIs). These KPIs 
represent 10% of the total STI.  The Board performed an assessment of Robbie Cooke’s individual KPIs for FY22 
with the results of his assessment reflected in his total FY22 STI outcome.

1   FY19 LTI options vest in equal tranches of 25%, commencing on 1 May 2021.

2   Options granted in respect of FY19 must satisfy two performance hurdles to qualify for exercise:

• 

• 

25% compound gross revenue growth from 1 July 2018 to end of financial year of testing; and 

a positive Net Profit result (before tax and share-based expenses) for financial year of testing.

3 

If a tranche does not satisfy both performance criteria on the relevant testing date, the tranche will be retested at the next testing date (if 
any).

4   FY20 LTI options vest in equal tranches of 25%, commencing on 1 October 2021.

5   Options granted in respect of FY20 must satisfy two performance hurdles to qualify for exercise:

• 

• 

20% compound gross revenue growth from 1 July 2019 to end of financial year of testing; and 

a positive Net Profit result (before tax and share-based expenses) for financial year of testing.

6 

7 

The FY21 performance rights will vest subject to passing a ‘Gateway’ and then satisfying a prescribed ‘Performance Hurdle’, and will vest 
in one tranche 3 years following the effective date of the plan. The ‘Gateway’ that must be passed prior to testing the performance hurdle 
is defined as Tyro reporting a positive EBITDA (before share-based payments) result for the financial year immediately preceding the 
vesting date, namely FY23. If the ‘Gateway’ is passed, the number of performance rights that qualify for exercise will depend on the vesting 
percentage determined by reference Tyro’s compound gross profit growth rate during the vesting period (Performance Hurdle).

The number of Medipass Performance Rights that will vest will be determined by reference to the EBITDA (as set out in Tyro’s audited 
financial statements) for the combined Medipass and Tyro Health businesses in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2026.

8  Refer to page 83 for a summary of the FY22 LTI vesting performance hurdles.

The FY19 performance options were tested on 1 May 2022 as part of testing for the second vesting date. The 
compound gross revenue for the period 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2021 was 12.8% and a net loss before tax and share-
based payments of $20.4 million was recorded resulting in the performance hurdles not being achieved. The FY19 
options will be retested on 1 May 2023. 

The FY20 performance options were tested on 1 October 2021 as part of testing for the first vesting date. The 
compound gross revenue for the period 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2021 was 13.2% and a net loss before tax and share-
based payments of $20.4 million was recorded resulting is the performance hurdles not being achieved. The FY20 
options will be retested on 1 Oct 2022.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORT7.  Statutory Executive KMP Remuneration

The following table provides the statutory remuneration outcomes for Executive KMP for FY22 and FY21 and is 
prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. The statutory remuneration outcomes disclosed 
in this table differs from the Executive KMPs’ FY22 Total Remuneration Opportunity (TRO) and the elements of 
the remuneration framework outlined in Section 4 of this Report. Differences arise mainly due to the accounting 
treatment of long-term benefits (which include annual leave and long service leave) and share-based payments 
(performance rights, LEPRs, remuneration sacrifice rights and option plans). Disclosures include an accounting 
value for current year rights and all unvested option plan awards.

The Accounting Standards require remuneration in the form of equity awards to be expensed (and therefore 
included as remuneration) over the performance period of the option plan even though an Executive KMP may not 
realise any benefit from that award.

1  Under accounting rules, any unvested share-based instruments of the CEO | Managing Director are deemed forfeited as a result of 

resignation.  Changes to this treatment, if any, will be reflected in next year’s Remuneration Report.

2  Rights relate to the Remuneration Sacrifice Rights Plan, the LEPR Plan and the Service Rights awarded in FY21 and FY22 under the STI Plan. 

These rights are classified as long term due to the terms of each respective Plan.

3  Non-monetary benefits for Robbie Cooke in FY21 relate to an allowance claimable to a maximum of $50,000 annually for reimbursement of 

personal travel expenses.

4 

5 

Included in the FY22 cost of Rights awarded to Robbie Cooke, is an amount of $59,215 relating to the FY22 STI incentive and an amount of 
$26,025 relating to the amortised accounting cost of the FY21 STI incentive.

Included in the FY22 cost of Rights awarded to Prav Pala, is an amount of $41,061 relating to the FY22 STI incentive and an amount of 
$13,746 relating to the amortised accounting cost of the FY21 STI incentive.

6  Steven Chapman commenced as KMP effective 11 June 2021. Pro rata Fixed Remuneration figures provided from 1 June 2021 to 30 June 

2021. The STI, Options and Rights figures represent the full FY21 charges.

7 

Included in the FY22 cost of Rights awarded to Steve Chapman, is an amount of $17,573 relating to the FY22 STI incentive and an amount of 
$2,996 relating to the amortised accounting cost of the FY21 STI incentive.

8  Angela Green ceased employment with the Company effective 10 June 2021. Included in her cash salary for FY21 is an amount of $22,038 

relating to 1 months’ notice payment received. 

9 

The negative accounting value of options for FY22 relates to management’s judgement that the FY19 LTI Option Plan only has a certain 
percentage probability of vesting. As such, a proportion of the prior year share-based payments expense for these options have been 
reversed.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022REMUNERATION REPORT8.  Non-executive Director Remuneration

Non-executive Directors receive a base fee, and where applicable, an additional fee in recognition of the higher 
workload and extra responsibilities resulting from Board Committee participation. Fees are based on peer market 
benchmarks and reviewed annually.

Non-executive Directors do not receive incentive payments, and following Tyro’s listing on the ASX on 6 December 
2019, they are no longer entitled to participate in any Tyro employee or Executive equity plans other than the 
remuneration sacrifice rights plan. They receive no non-monetary benefits and do not participate in any retirement 
benefit scheme, other than statutory superannuation contributions.

Under the ASX Listing Rules, the total amount or value of remuneration paid to Non-executive Directors in any year 
may not exceed the amount approved by shareholders at the Company’s general meeting. This amount has been 
fixed at $1,400,000 per annum, as approved by shareholders at Tyro’s 2019 annual general meeting.

As at the date of this report, the Non-executive Director base fee agreed to be paid by us is $140,000 effective 
from 1 July 2021 (FY21: $108,000) per annum before superannuation contributions. Non-executive Directors are 
also paid additional base fees for the following roles:

•  Chair of the Board: $70,000 per annum (for total remuneration of $210,000 per annum); and
•  Chair of a Board Committee: $20,000 per Committee Chair (for total remuneration of $160,000 per annum), not 

payable if the Committee Chair is also the Board Chair.

Other than the Chair of a Board Committee, Non-executive Directors are not paid an additional fee for being a 
member of a Board Committee. In addition to the remuneration above, the Company will contribute statutory 
superannuation to a complying superannuation fund.

Remuneration is reviewed annually and any increase to it will be at the discretion of the Board but will not exceed 
the aggregate amount approved by Shareholders. The table below outlines the statutory remuneration paid to 
Non-executive Directors in FY22 in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.

Included in rights for FY22 are the fees Non-executive Directors have salary sacrificed and issued as service rights.

2  Hamish Corlett stepped down from the Board on 3 November 2021. Remuneration details are provided for the period 1 July 2021 to 3 

November 2021.

3  Aliza Knox was appointed to the Board on 21 April 2021. The FY21 data in the table above reflects the Non-executive Director fees received 

from that date. Included in the FY22 fees is the cash amount earned in FY21 and only paid in FY22.

4  Claire Hatton and Shefali Roy were appointed as Non-executive Directors on 5 January 2022. The FY22 data in the table above reflects the 

Non-executive Director fees received from that date.

5 

The negative accounting value of options for FY22 relates to management’s judgement that the FY19 LTI Option Plan only has a certain 
percentage probability of vesting. As such, a proportion of the prior year share-based payments expense for these options have been 
reversed.

1  Options granted vest monthly in equal tranches over a period of 5 years and are not subject to any performance conditions.

2  Options granted vest annually in equal 25% tranches over a period of four years, commencing 24 months after the grant date and subject to 
the following performance conditions: (i) 25% compound gross revenue growth per annum; and (ii) a positive net profit result (before tax and 
share-based expenses). If a tranche does not satisfy both performance criteria on the relevant testing date, the tranche will be retested at 
the next testing date (if any).

3  Vesting will occur in three equal tranches, as follows: one third on the date of the liquidity event (Initial Vesting Date); one third on the date 

that is 12 months after the Initial Vesting Date; and one third on the date that is 24 months after the Initial Vesting Date.

4  Options granted vest annually in equal 20% tranches over a period of five years, commencing 12 months after the grant date and are not 

subject to any performance conditions.

5  Options granted vest annually in equal 25% tranches over a period of four years, commencing 24 months after the grant date and subject to

Notes to the financial statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

1.  General information and statement of accounting policies 
The financial report of the Group was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 29 August 2022.

The Group is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), registered and domiciled in Australia. The nature of the 
operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report.

The financial report includes the consolidated financial statements of Tyro Payments Limited and its controlled entities 
(together referred to as the Group). 

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

(a)  Basis of preparation 

The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting 
Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and International Financial 
Reporting Standards (IFRS) and Interpretations as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The financial 
report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for loans and financial investments which have been measured 
at fair value.

A number of new accounting standards and amendments have been issued but are not yet effective, none of which have been 
early adopted by the Group in this financial report. These new standards and amendments, when applied in future periods, are 
not expected to have a material impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

Similar categories of income and expenses have been grouped together. Prior year comparative information for these amounts, 
where necessary, has been reclassified to achieve consistency in disclosure with current financial year amounts and other 
disclosures.

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.

(b)  Going concern 

The Directors consider the Group able to pay their debts as and when they fall due, and therefore the Group are able to 
continue as a going concern.

(c)  Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

In applying the Group’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 Group. 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 Group recognises the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees (including 
Key Management Personnel) and other stakeholders by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date on 
which they are granted. The valuation assumptions are detailed in Note 14. The equity-settled instruments are expensed using a 
linear or graded probability of vesting approach, depending on terms of the equity instrument.

Classification and valuation of investments -The Group classifies its investments in floating rate notes (FRNs) and equity 
securities where it does not exercise significant influence or control as Financial Investments – at FVOCI, with movements in 
fair value recognised directly in equity. The fair value of listed shares has been determined by reference to published price 
quotations in an active market. Where no active market exists for a particular asset, the Group uses a valuation technique 
to arrive at the fair value. The Group prioritises the use of observable market inputs in the valuation of Level 3 fair valued 
investments and considers all reasonable sources of alternative information when incorporating unobservable inputs. Further 
details are as disclosed in the footnotes.

The equity investment in Medipass is deemed to be a business combination and is accounted for using the acquisition method 
of accounting. See Note 21 for further details.

Investments in associated companies are accounted for using the equity method of accounting less impairment losses. See 
Note 1(m) for further details.

114

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT1.  General information and statement of accounting policies (continued)

(c)  Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued)

Valuation of loans – The Group’s lending product differs from a conventional lending asset that accrues interest over time. 
Under the Group’s current terms, a merchant borrows a loan amount plus an upfront fee. The total loan plus fee amount does 
not change regardless of early or late repayment. As such, the product fails the “solely payments of principal and interest test” 
under IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and is therefore measured at fair value through the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

The fair value of loans has been estimated using a valuation technique that converts forecasted cash flows to a present value 
amount (discounted cash flow method). The forecasted cash flows are actuarially determined using predictive models based 
partly on evidenced historical performance and expected repayment profiles including an adjustment for loans to customers 
impacted by COVID-19. Inputs into the valuation model are detailed in the footnotes.

Capitalisation of internally generated software - An intangible asset arising from development expenditure on an internal 
project is recognised by the Group only when the following can be demonstrated: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; 

its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset; 

how the asset will generate probable future economic benefits; 

availability of resources to complete the development; and 

the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. 

The Group commences amortising internally generated software projects from the point the asset is ready for use.

Impairment for intangibles - The Group determines whether goodwill, and other identifiable intangible assets with indefinite 
useful lives are impaired at least on an annual basis. Other intangible assets are reviewed at least annually to determine 
whether any indicators of impairment exist, and if necessary an impairment analysis is performed. Impairment testing requires 
an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash generating units to which the goodwill and other intangible assets with 
indefinite useful lives are allocated. Refer to Note 13 (b) for the key assumptions used.

Estimation of useful lives of assets - The estimation of the useful lives of assets has been primarily 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 for property, plant and 
equipment are included in the footnotes for amortisation of intangible assets with finite useful lives. In assessing whether 
the useful life of an intangible asset is finite or indefinite, Management use judgement in determining the period over which 
expected future benefits will be generated, also factoring in the market that the Group operates in and the longer term strategy 
for the Group. An impairment assessment is conducted and reviewed by Management at least annually as to whether indicators 
of impairment such as technical obsolescence exist.

Remediation provision - Determining the amount of provisioning required in respect of customer-related refunds requires 
the exercise of significant judgement. This includes forming a view on a number of different estimates, including number of 
impacted customers, average compensation per customer and the associated costs required to complete the remediation 
activities. The appropriateness of underlying assumptions is reviewed on a regular basis against actual experience and other 
available evidence, and adjustments are made to the provision where required.

Long service leave - Entitlements that arise in respect of non-current long service leave 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 also requires a prediction of 
the number of employees that will achieve entitlement to long service leave.

Taxation - Provisions for taxation require significant judgement with respect to outcomes that are uncertain. Deferred tax assets 
are recognised for deductible temporary differences and carried forward tax losses after consideration of:

• 

• 

• 

implications of COVID-19 on current year results and future forecasts;

likelihood of availability of future profits, including stress testing of forecasts, for utilisation of deferred tax assets; and

outcome of Continuity of Ownership Testing (and where applicable, the Similar Business Test) to support the recognition of 
any carried forward tax losses.

Management does not recognise deferred tax assets where utilisation is not considered probable.

Tyro-Bendigo Alliance 

The Alliance has been agreed for a ten year period starting in June 2021. The trail commission payable on the existing customer 
network and future rollouts includes a guaranteed component for the first four years. An additional variable amount is payable 
based on revenue achieved. The trail commission payable was initially measured at fair value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair 
Value Measurement and is remeasured in subsequent periods to reflect actual and revised estimates of future revenue.
Key assumptions in respect of estimating the valuation of the trail commission payable included:
• 
• 
• 

discount rates derived from similar observed rates for comparable assets that are traded in the market;
the merchant churn rate; and
probability weighted forecasts considering a high, mid and low forecast estimate prepared by management and approved 
by the Board.

(c)  Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued)

Tyro-Bendigo Alliance (continued)
The associated intangible assets was recognised in accordance with AASB 138 Intangible Assets. They are carried at cost 
less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses and are reviewed annually for any indicator of 
impairments in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets.  The useful life of the acquired intangible assets is judgmental 
and reviewed annually by management with adjustments made where deemed necessary.

(d)  Basis of consolidation

(i) 

Business combinations

The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when the acquired set of activities and assets 
meets the definition of a business and control is transferred to the Group. In determining whether a particular set of activities 
and assets is a business, the Group assesses whether the set of assets and activities acquired includes, at a minimum, an input 
and substantive process and whether the acquired set has the ability to produce outputs.

The Group has an option to apply a ‘concentration test’ that permits a simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of 
activities and assets is not a business. The optional concentration test is met if substantially all of the fair value of the gross 
assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets.

The consideration transferred in the acquisition is generally measured at fair value, as are the identifiable net assets acquired. 
Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment (see Note 1(p)). Any gain on a bargain purchase is recognised in profit 
or loss immediately. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred, except if related to the issue of debt or equity securities.

The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts 
are generally recognised in profit or loss.

Any contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the date of acquisition and subsequent changes in the fair value of 
the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or loss.

If share-based payment awards (replacement awards) are required to be exchanged for awards held by the acquiree’s 
employees (acquiree’s awards), then all or a portion of the amount of the acquirer’s replacement awards is included in measuring 
the consideration transferred in the business combination. This determination is based on the market-based measure of 
the replacement awards compared with the market-based measure of the acquiree’s awards and the extent to which the 
replacement awards relate to pre-combination services.

(ii)  Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company ‘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 financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control 
commences until the date on which control ceases.

(iii)  Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses (except for foreign currency transaction 
gains or losses) arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity-
accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealised 
losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT1.  General information and statement of accounting policies (continued)

(e)  Current and non-current classification

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. 
An asset is current when it is: 

• 
• 
• 

or 

• 

expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle; 
held primarily for the purpose of trading;
expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period;

cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after 
the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current. 

A liability is current when: 

• 
• 
• 

or

• 

it is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
it is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period;

there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

The terms of the liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments 
do not affect its classification. 

The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

(f)  Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances, call deposits and term deposits with an original maturity of three months 
or less from the date of acquisition. 

(g)  Due from other financial institutions 

Includes term deposits with maturities greater than three months from the date of acquisition, and term deposits pledged 
to counterparties as collateral. These are initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost less 
allowance for expected credit losses, using the effective interest method.

(h)  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 expected credit losses (ECL). Collectability of trade 
receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified.

The Group has applied the simplified approach to calculate ECL for trade receivables where a loss allowance is based on 
lifetime ECL at each reporting date. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to 
measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments 
with similar loss patterns (i.e. by customer type). The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of 
money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions 
and forecasts of future economic conditions.

(i)  Loans 

Loans to merchants are classified and measured at fair value with changes in the fair value being recognised in the Statement 
of Comprehensive Income. The loans are unsecured with an upfront (“unearned”) fee charged to the merchant. As the merchant 
receives daily settlements, a percentage is taken towards loan repayments. The loan repayment includes a portion which 
recognises the unearned fee in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as interest income. When the loan is uncollectible, 
it is written-off. Such write-offs of loans occur after all the necessary assessments for write-off procedures have been 
completed and the amount of the loss has been determined. Loan write-offs are disclosed as lending losses in the Statement 
of Comprehensive Income. Subsequent recoveries are recognised against these write-offs.

Over the reporting period, specific requests for the loans to be put on a “repayment holiday” due to hardship were assessed 
on a case-by-case basis. Where appropriate, these loans may have qualified for, and were provided, a repayment holiday for 
an initial period of up to three months. Further extension requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis. The agreed revised 
repayment schedule of these loans is reflected in the fair value calculation.

117

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT1.  General information and statement of accounting policies (continued)

(j)  Prepayments 

Prepayments are recognised for amounts paid whereby goods have not transferred ownership to the Group 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.

(k) 

Inventories 

(i)   Cost and valuation 

The costs of purchasing inventories comprise the purchase price, import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently 
recoverable by the Group 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 at least on an annual basis. Inventories are derecognised when the rights to benefits are transferred to a 
third party.

(ii)   Impairment 

Management makes assessments of the net realisable value of inventory at least 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 Inventories, 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.

(l)  Financial investments 

Recognition and initial measurement
The classification of financial investments at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow The 
classification of financial investments at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics 
and the Group’s business model for managing them. The Group initially measures financial assets held at amortised cost or debt 
instruments held at fair value through other comprehensive income at its fair value plus transaction costs. 

In order for a debt investment to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive 
income (OCI), it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal 
amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets 
with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business 
model. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net 
changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

The Group’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash 
flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial 
assets, or both. Financial investments classified and measured at fair value through OCI are held within a business model with 
the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling.

Subsequent measurement
For debt investments at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals 
are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI. Upon 
derecognition, the cumulative fair value change recognised in OCI is recycled to profit or loss.

For equity investments at fair value through OCI, the Group can elect to classify irrevocably its equity investments as equity 
instruments designated at fair value through OCI at initial recognition. Gains and losses on these financial assets are never 
recycled to profit or loss. Equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI are not subject to impairment assessment. 
The Group elected to classify irrevocably its non-listed equity investments under this category.

Purchase and sale of investments are recognised on trade date - the date on which the Group becomes party to the 
contractual provisions of the investment.

(m)  Investment in associates

Associated companies are entities over which the Group has significant influence, but not control, generally accompanied by 
a shareholding giving rise to significant but not controlling voting rights. Investments in associated companies are accounted 
for in the consolidated financial statement using the equity method of accounting less impairment losses, if any. Investments 
in associated companies are initially recognised at cost. The cost of an acquisition is measured at the fair value of the assets 
given, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the 
acquisition. Goodwill on associated companies represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of the associate over the Group’s 
share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the associate and is included in the carrying amount of the investments.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT1.  General information and statement of accounting policies (continued)

(n)  Property, plant and equipment 

(i)  Cost 

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. The Group 
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: 

PLANT AND EQUIPMENT:

4 years 

Remaining term of lease 

Remaining term of lease

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

Impairment 

(iii) 
Management identify 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.

(iv)  Derecognition 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.

(o)  Leases 

The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to 
control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

(i)  Group as a lessee 

The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of 
low-value assets. The Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right 
to use the underlying assets.

Right-of-use assets 
The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e. the date the underlying asset is available 
for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for 
any re-measurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial 
direct costs incurred, lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received and an 
estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is 
located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease. Right-of-use assets 
are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets. 

(ii)  Lease liabilities 

At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease 
payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) 
less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to 
be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably 
certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group 
exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as 
expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

119

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT1.  General information and statement of accounting policies (continued)

(o)  Leases (continued) 

(ii)  Lease liabilities (continued)

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement 
date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount 
of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the 
carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease 
payments (e.g. changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) 
or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. 

(iii)  Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets 

The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of equipment (i.e. those leases that have 
a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease 
of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments 
on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(iv)  Group as a lessor 

Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset are 
classified as operating leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included 
in revenue in the Statement of Comprehensive Income due to its operating nature. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating 
and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on 
the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned. 

(p) 

Intangible assets and goodwill 

(i) 

Software 

The Group continues to make significant investments in various projects to develop new products and enhance existing 
products’ capabilities. For certain projects, it is more probable that future economic benefits from the assets arising from 
the projects will flow to the Group and their expenditure can be measured reliably with enhancements in the Group’s data 
governance, system and reporting. Therefore, software development costs for those projects are recognised as intangible 
assets in the Statement of Financial Position in accordance with AASB 138 Intangible Assets.

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the intangible asset is carried at its cost less any 
accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Each development project will then be reviewed annually 
for any indicator of impairments in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets.

Acquired intangibles as part of the Medipass acquisition was valued using the replacement cost technique. This technique 
estimates the Fair Value as all costs necessary to construct a similar asset of equivalent utility at prices applicable at the time of 
reconstruction

(ii)  Customer contracts and relationships

The customer contracts were acquired as part of the Tyro-Bendigo Alliance and Medipass acquisitions. They are recognised at 
their fair value at the date of acquisition and are subsequently amortised on a straight-line based on the timing of projected 
cash flows of the contracts over their estimated useful lives.

The useful life of finite intangible assets is judgmental and reviewed annually by management with adjustments made where 
deemed necessary. The following method is used in the calculation of amortisation:

INTANGIBLE ASSET 

Internally generated software 

Customer relationships 

(iii)  Goodwill 

AMORTISATION METHOD 

Straight line 

Straight line 

USEFUL LIFE 

Finite (3 - 5 years) 

Finite (7 - 10 years)

Goodwill on acquisition is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s 
interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost 
less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortised and is tested annually for impairment.

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the 
carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit 
to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an 
impairment loss is recognised.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT1.  General information and statement of accounting policies (continued)

(q)  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 4). 

(r)  Deposits from customers 

Deposits from customers are initially recognised at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, these liabilities are measured 
at amortised cost. Interest expense on deposits is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income using the effective 
interest method.

(s)  Trade and other payables 

Merchant payables arise when the Group 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 Group.

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 Group.

Commissions payable to Bendigo Bank

The trail commission payable on the existing customer network and future rollouts includes an amount guaranteed by the 
Group and an additional variable amount based on revenue achieved. The trail commission payable is initially measured at fair 
value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement and remeasured in subsequent periods to reflect actual and revised 
estimates of future revenue. 

The key assumptions used in estimating the valuation of the trail commission payable can be found in Note 1(c).

(t)  Provisions and contingencies 

Provisions are recognised when the Group 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 may 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.

Management evaluates the risk of such transactions and estimates its potential loss from chargebacks based primarily on 
historical experience and other relevant factors. A provision is recognised in the general reserve for credit losses 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.

(u)  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.

(v)  General reserve for credit losses 

The Group appropriates for estimated future credit losses from chargebacks, with a general reserve for credit losses. The Group 
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 Group also appropriates for estimated future credit losses from loans to ensure the Group has sufficient capital to cover 
credit losses estimated to arise over the full life of the loans as required by APRA Prudential Standard APS 220 Credit Quality.

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

121

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT1.  General information and statement of accounting policies (continued)

(w)  Revenue recognition 

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised in accordance with AASB 15 which introduced a single, principle-based 
five step recognition and measurement model. The five steps are: 

Identify the contract with a customer; 
Identify separate performance obligations in the contract; 

1. 
2. 
3.  Determine the transaction price; 
4.  Allocate the transaction price to each performance obligations identified in Step 2; and 
5.  Recognise revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.

The Group’s fee income from contracts with customers is derived primarily from the following sources: 

•  merchant service fee income is generated from merchant customers for credit, debit and charge 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 payment transactions are recognised at the 
time transactions are processed. Related interchange fees, which are collected from merchants and paid to credit 
institutions are recognised as an expense instead of netting-off against merchant service fee income in the Statement of 
Comprehensive Income; and
revenue from Dynamic Currency Conversion transactions generated from merchants is calculated based on the individual 
value of the transactions and is recognised once the transaction has been processed.

• 

Terminal rental income generated from operating leases with merchants is recognised progressively based on a fixed monthly 
rental on terminals. There is no minimum rental period for merchants.

Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in accordance with AASB 9 using the effective 
interest method. The effective interest 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.

(x)  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.

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. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on high quality corporate 
bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match as closely as possible to the estimated future cash outflows.

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 the reporting date is estimated to be less than the annual entitlement for sick leave.

(y)  Share-based payment transactions 

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees (including Key Management Personnel) via the employee 
share option plans, short term incentive plans and long term incentive plans, whereby employees render services in exchange 
for rights over the Company’s shares, as well as other stakeholders under contractual arrangements. The cost of these equity-
settled transactions is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. 
The fair value of any options issuance is determined 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 or stakeholders 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 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. Details of the types of share-based payments and their 
respective terms and vesting conditions are disclosed in Note 14.

The Company also has share-based compensation benefits in the form of rights which are tied to performance conditions, as 
well as restricted stock units (RSUs) which relate to remuneration sacrifice rights. The policy treatment is consistent with that for 
share options via the Employee Share Option Plan

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 reporting date.

Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the Statement of 
Comprehensive Income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in 
which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

(aa)    SaaS arrangements

SaaS arrangements are service contracts providing the Group with the right to access the cloud provider’s application software 
over the contract period. As such the Group does not receive a software intangible asset at the contract commencement date. 
A right to receive future access to the supplier’s software does not, at the contract commencement date, give the Group the 
power to obtain the future economic benefits flowing from the software itself and to restrict others’ access to those benefits.

The following outlines the accounting treatment of costs incurred in relation to SaaS arrangements: 

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT

COST

Non-distinct costs: 
Recognised as an operating 
expense over the term of the 
service contract.

Distinct costs: Recognised as 
an operating expense as the 
service is received.

•  Fee for use of application software (licence fee)
•  Customisation costs

•  Configuration costs 
•  Data conversion and migration costs
•  Testing cost
•  Training costs

Costs incurred for the development of software code that enhances or modifies, or creates additional capability to, existing 
on-premise systems and meets the definition of and recognition criteria for an intangible asset are recognised as intangible 
computer software assets.

(ab)    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. Cash 
flows are disclosed net of the amount of GST (unless stated otherwise) in the Statement of Cash Flows and the GST component 
of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is 
classified as part of operating cash flows.

(ac)    Foreign currency translation 

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.

(ad)    De-recognition of assets and liabilities 

Assets and liabilities are de-recognised from the Statement of Financial Position upon sale, maturity or settlement. The Group 
de-recognises scheme receivables against associated merchant payables as the risks and rewards are passed through in line 
with contractual obligations.

(a)  Description of segments and principal activities

For management purposes, the Group is organised into two operating segments, comprising Payments and Banking. 
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision 
maker, which is the CEO and Managing Director. The Group operates in one geographical segment being Australia. 

The corporate and other segment, which is not considered an operating segment of the Group, is used to reconcile the total 
segment results back to the consolidated results. It consists of other income and costs that fall outside the day-to-day 
operations of the Group. These include the Group’s Head Office, all employee benefits expenses and other operating expenses, 
all of which are recorded below Gross Profit.

The Group’s reportable segments under AASB 8 Operating Segments are as follows:

REPORTABLE

processing acquired transactions. Revenue is also earned from other fee income, terminal rental income and 
sales of terminal accessories. Direct expenses include scheme and interchange fees, integration, support and 
other fees and cost of terminal accessories sold.

Banking

13.  Intangible assets and goodwill (continued)

(b)  Goodwill 

i) 

Allocation of goodwill 

The Group has allocated goodwill acquired through business combinations to the Tyro Health Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”). As 
the only CGU with non-amortising intangible asset, the Group determined the Tyro Health CGU to be the only CGU subject to 
an annual impairment test. The Group performed its annual impairment test in June 2022.

The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined based on “Value-In-Use” calculations using discounted cash flow projections 
based on financial budgets and forecasts covering a five-year period with an estimated terminal growth rate. The cash flows are 
discounted using a pre-tax discount rate reflecting an estimate of the weighted cost of capital (WACC). 

The Group determined that the carrying amount does not exceed the recoverable amount. No impairment of goodwill at 30 
June 2022 has been recorded. 

ii) 

Key assumptions and sensitivity

The cash flow projections which are used in determining any impairment require management to make significant estimates 
and judgements. Each of the assumptions is subject to significant judgement about future economic conditions and the 
ongoing development of industries in which the CGUs operate. Forecasted cashflows are risk-adjusted allowing for estimated 
changes in the business and the competitive trading environment.

Cash flow projections during the forecast period are based on forecast revenue growth arising from increasing total 
transactions volumes for Tyro Health. Forecast increases in gross margin and operating costs have been included to support 
the forecast growth in volumes. The pre-tax discount rate applied to the cash flow projections was 8.8% which reflects current 
market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the relevant segments in which the CGU operates. 
Terminal growth rate is 3.6% consistent with industry forecasts specific to the CGU.

The Group has completed sensitivity analysis over the Tyro Health CGU. The recoverable amount of the Tyro Health CGU is in 
excess of the carrying amounts in the respective CGUs. Any reasonable adverse change in key assumptions will not lead to an 
impairment.

14.  Share based payments
The Group provides benefits to employees (including Key Management Personnel (KMP)) from time to time including share-
based payments as remuneration for service. Additionally, the Company provides share-based payments to other stakeholders 
as part of contractual agreements.

(a)  Employee Share Option Plan

The Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) was established to grant options over ordinary shares in the Company to employees 
or Directors who provide services to the Company. 

Options granted pursuant to the ESOP may be exercised, in whole or part, subject to vesting terms and conditions as indicated 
below:

 TYPE OF OPTION

VESTING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Monthly linear vesting schedule

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 
Director with the Company during the vesting period. The options generally vest in 
equal amounts each month over the vesting period.

Annual linear vesting schedule

Options vest similarly to the monthly linear vesting schedule; except they vest in 
equal amounts annually over the vesting period.

Performance linear vesting schedule

Options vest in equal amounts annually over the vesting period and are also subject to 
performance criteria.

135

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT 
14.  Share based payments (continued)

(a)  Employee Share Option Plan (continued)

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

•  the date which is 3 years after the date on which options are granted; or 

•  the date on which the participant ceases employment with the Company. 

Other relevant terms and conditions applicable to options granted under the ESOP include: 

• 

• 
• 
• 

• 

the term of each option grant ranges primarily between 6 – 7 years from the date of grant or such shorter term as provided 
in the ESOP or grant letter; 
each option entitles the holder to one ordinary fully paid share; 
all awards granted under the ESOP are equity-settled; 
a 2-year holding lock applies to those options with annual linear or performance linear vesting schedules. For annual linear 
options, the lock period applies following the relevant vesting date, and for performance linear options the lock period 
applies from exercise date. During this period the shares issued cannot be transferred, sold, encumbered or otherwise dealt 
with; and 
under the ESOP rules and subject to any requirements under law or the ASX listing rules, the Board, at its discretion, may 
determine that options held by an employee or Director do not lapse on cessation of employment or Directorship and that 
the relevant holder of options has additional time to exercise their options. 

(b)  Fair value of options under the ESOP

The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. 

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 Company’s estimated 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.

There were 4,310,080 options exercised during the period ended 30 June 2022 (2021: 5,166,415).

The weighted average remaining contractual life for share options outstanding as at 30 June 2022 was 4 years (2021: 4 years). 

The following table summarises further details of the Company’s share options outstanding at 30 June 2022:

The general reserve for credit losses has been created to satisfy APRA’s prudential standards for authorised deposit-taking 
institutions (ADIs) as described in Note 1(v). The Group applies an internal methodology to estimate the credit risk of its 
merchant customers and the maximum losses based upon a number of assumptions concerning the performance of 
merchants in relation to the Group’s credit risk grading system and actual experience.

The Board has responsibility for setting the Group’s strategy and the Risk Management Framework (RMF). The RMF includes the 
Risk Management Strategy (RMS), the Risk Appetite Statement (RAS) and the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process 
(ICAAP). The RMS supports the Group in achieving its strategic priorities by clearly articulating the approach to managing 
risks aligned with the material risk types that are consistent with the RAS. The CEO and Management team are responsible for 
implementing the RMS, and for developing policies, controls, processes and procedures for identifying and managing risk. 

Various management committees, including the Executive Risk Committee (ERC), the Pricing Committee (PriceCo) and the 
Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO), ensure appropriate execution of the RMS is applied to the day-to-day 
operations and regularly report to the Board Risk Committee (BRC). 

(ii)  Risk controls 

Risks are identified, managed and controlled through the Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) process. The RCSA is an 
assessment of key risks and controls which enable the business to understand its operational risk environment and facilitate 
decision-making, prioritisation, allocation of resources and effective governance. Business risks are controlled within tolerance 
levels approved by the Board through the RAS. 

(iii)  Internal audit 

The Group 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. 

(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. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its 
lending and investing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and 
financial investments in floating rate notes. 

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

The framework is used to develop underwriting standards and credit procedures which define the operating processes. Ongoing 
monitoring, reporting and review allows the Group to identify changes in credit quality at the client and portfolio levels and to 
take corrective actions in a timely manner. 

Credit losses from chargebacks 

In addition, the Group is subject to the risk of credit card losses via chargebacks. The maximum period the Group is potentially 
liable for such chargebacks is up to 120 days after the latter of the transaction date or the expected delivery date. The Group 
manages credit risk associated with its merchant portfolio both at an individual and a portfolio level. 

It is the Group’s policy that all merchants are subject to credit verification procedures including an assessment of their 
independent credit rating, past behaviour and an overview of trading history.

As part of equity, a General Reserve for Credit Losses (GRCL) is maintained to cover losses due to uncollectible chargebacks 
that have not been specifically identified. The reserve is calculated based on estimated future credit losses as described in Note 
1(v). The Group does not hold any credit derivatives or collateral to offset its credit exposure. The Group’s exposure to bad debts 
from chargebacks is not significant at the reporting date. 

Credit losses from loans 

The Group is also subject to the risk of credit losses from its unsecured loan product and loan product operating under the 
Government SME guarantee scheme. The Group manages this risk in accordance with the Board approved Lending Credit Risk 
Policy. Responsibility for monitoring and management of this risk is delegated to the Chief Risk Officer (CRO). The CRO is also 
responsible for ensuring the Lending Credit Risk Policy is reviewed regularly and submitted to the BRC for endorsement and 
approval by the Board. 

To manage the risk of credit losses, various underwriting criteria are in place before a loan can be offered. A merchant must 
satisfy the onboarding requirements to be eligible for a loan offer, as well as providing a personal guarantee. Tyro only offers 
loans to merchants with a Tyro EFTPOS terminal.

The Group maintains a GRCL to also cover credit losses estimated but not certain to arise over the full life of the loans as 
described in Note 1(v).

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

The BRC is responsible for monitoring the operational risk profile, the performance of operational risk controls, and the 
development and ongoing review of operational risk policies.

19.  Financial risk management objectives, policies and processes (continued)

(vi)  Market risk 

Market risk is the potential loss of value or potential reduction in expected earnings resulting from movements in interest rates 
and foreign exchange rates. The Group’s balance sheet activities expose the profit and loss to earnings volatility. Ultimately, 
the aim of managing market risks is to stabilise earnings. Market prices comprise four types of risk: interest rate risk, foreign 
currency risk, commodity price risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk. The Group 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 Group 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 Group at this stage. 

Any floating rate notes that the Group 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: 

(i) 

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 Group has exposure to interest rate risk primarily on its variable interest-bearing cash and cash 
equivalent balances, term deposits, floating rate notes, loans and variable deposits (bank accounts for businesses). 

Interest rate sensitivity analysis 

The following demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates. With all other variables held 
constant, the profit is affected as follows: 

An increase of 200 basis points for 12 months in the general cash rate (assuming other factors remain constant) will increase 
the Group’s profit and increase equity by $1,580,021 (2021: $2,253,724). A decrease of 100 basis points in the general cash rate 
decrease the Group’s profit and decrease equity by $790,010 (2021: $1,126,862). 

The following table shows the Group’s financial assets and liabilities on which the interest rate sensitivity analysis has been 
performed.

(vi)  Market risk (continued)

(ii)  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. 

The Group is not exposed to foreign currency risk in the settlement of merchant transactions as all monies received and 
paid are in Australian dollars. The Group’s settlement of fees with card schemes and the purchases of terminals from foreign 
suppliers are transacted in foreign currencies at the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. At the reporting date the 
Group has US Dollar, Euro and British Pound Sterling exposures.

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis 

The following demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in the US dollar and Euro exchange rates, with all 
other variables held constant:

Group
An appreciation of 15% of the US dollar and Euro compared to the Australian dollar (assuming other factors remain constant), 
will increase the Group’s profit and increase equity by $245,656 (2021: $67,527). A depreciation of 15% of the US dollar and Euro 
compared to the Australian dollar will reduce the Group’s profit and reduce equity by $181,572 (2021: $49,911).

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in 
market conditions (other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign currency risk), for example from changes in equity 
prices and commodity prices.

(vii)  Capital Management 

The Group’s capital management objectives are to: 

•  maintain a sufficient level of capital above the regulatory minimum to provide a buffer against losses arising from 

unanticipated events, and allow the Group to continue as a going concern; and 

•  ensure that capital management is closely aligned with the Group’s business and strategic objectives. 

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

APRA determines minimum prudential capital ratios that must be held by all ADIs. Accordingly, the Group is required to maintain 
a minimum prudential capital ratio on a Level 1 basis as determined by APRA. 

The Board considers the Group’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 the Group’s ICAAP. The Group operates under the specific capital requirements set by APRA. The Group has satisfied 
its minimum capital requirements throughout the 2022 financial year in the form of Tier 1 Capital which is the highest quality 
component of capital.

(viii) Liquidity risk 

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

The Group manages this risk by the Board approved liquidity framework. Responsibility for liquidity management is delegated 
to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CFO manages liquidity on a daily basis and submits 
regular reports to ALCO, and to the BRC at the seating of the BRC. The CFO is also responsible for monitoring and managing 
capital planning. The capital plan outlines triggers for additional funding should liquidity be required. The CRO provides 
oversight of the business’ adherence with the Liquidity Risk framework and reports to the BRC. The liquidity risk management 
framework models the Group’s ability to fund under both normal conditions and periods of stress. The capital plan and liquidity 
management are reviewed at least annually. At the reporting date, the Board of Directors determined that there was sufficient 
cash available to meet its financial liabilities and anticipated expenditure. 

Maturity analysis 
Amounts in the table below are based on the Group’s contractual undiscounted cash flows for the remaining contractual 
maturities.

(ix)  Fair values

The Group 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.

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

The table below shows the Group’s financial assets that are measured at fair value, or where not measured at fair value, their fair 
value equivalent. Management has assessed that for other financial assets and liabilities not disclosed in the table below, due to 
their short-term maturity or repricing profile, the carrying amount is an approximation of fair value.

(ix)  Fair values (continued)

Floating rate notes
The floating rate notes invested in by the Group have a short-term repricing profile and are of high credit quality. The fair value 
of these floating rate notes is obtained from an independent third-party pricing service that uses tradeable prices and quotes 
from active markets. 

Loans
Loans are included in Level 3 due to one or more of the significant inputs used in determining the fair value being based on 
unobservable inputs. To determine the fair value, an income valuation approach is used. This technique converts forecasted 
cash flows to a present value amount (also known as a discounted cash flow method). Forecast cash flows are actuarially 
determined using predictive models based partly on evidenced historical performance and expected repayment profiles.

The fair value model will be periodically reviewed, tested and refined as needed.

The fair value of loans requires estimation of:

•  the expected future cash flows;
•  the expected timing of receipt of those cash flows; and
•  discount rates derived from similar observed rates for comparable assets that are traded in the market. 

The main inputs used in measuring the fair value of loans are as follows:

• 
• 
• 

• 
• 

loan balance – accepted principal and fee, outstanding principal and fee, and date of acceptance;
annual settlement amount – forecasted total annual settlements for loan customers;
current repayment percentage – percentage of daily settlements through the loan customers’ terminals that go towards 
loan repayments;
historical default and recovery information; and 
discount rates – market benchmarked discount rate which allows for a market level of default risk.

The unobservable pricing inputs which determine fair value are based on:

• 
• 
• 
• 

the pricing of loans including adjustments for credit risk, with the risk adjustments ranging between 35% and 37%;
historical data with respect to behavioural repayment patterns – generally ranging between 3 to 12 months;
default experience for loans deemed uncollectable and which are valued at $nil; and
an estimate for the deterioration in credit risk of merchants as a result of COVID-19.

These inputs directly affect the fair value of the loans. A sensitivity of a change of 10% in the value ascribed to credit risk 
for loans to merchants that are either not trading completely, or are on repayment holidays, will have an impact of between 
negative $46,628 and positive $46,628 to profit and loss.

Equity investments
At the reporting date, the Group held unlisted equity instruments in meandu Australia Holdings Pty Ltd and Axis IP Pty Ltd and 
100% of the share capital of Medipass which was acquired on 31 May 2021. meandu Australia Holdings Pty Ltd and Axis IP Pty 
Ltd are valued using the equity accounting method as noted in Note 11.

Transfer between categories
There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the financial year.

The Group has provided irrevocable standby letters of credit of $3,811,066 (2021: $3,653,183) secured through fixed charges 
over term deposits with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia and Westpac Banking Corporation, to Mastercard International 
and Visa 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 Group. 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 Group.

A bank guarantee in favour of UIR Australia was held with Westpac Banking Corporation in relation to the lease arrangement for 
the 155 Clarence Street office premises. The amount was refunded on completion of the make good.

A bank guarantee in favour of Leader Autainvest II Pty Ltd is held with Westpac Banking Corporation in relation to the lease 
arrangement for the 55 Market Street office premises. The amount represents 6 months rent, outgoings and GST and is 
refundable on expiry of the lease agreement, subject to satisfactory vacation of the leased premises.

A bank guarantee in favour of Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Limited is held with Westpac Banking Corporation to mitigate the 
default risk created by Bendigo settling funds to Alliance merchants that hold a settlement account with Bendigo ahead of 
funds receipt from Tyro.

21.  Acquisition of subsidiary 

Acquisitions for the year ended 30 June 2022
There were no acquisitions for the year ended 30 June 2022.

Acquisitions for the year ended 30 June 2021
On 31 May 2021, the Company acquired a 100% ownership interest in Medipass, a Melbourne-based digital health payments 
business. 

Included in the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition of Medipass are inputs (a software platform, 
customer contracts, customer relationships), production processes and an organised workforce. The Company has determined 
that together the acquired inputs and processes significantly contribute to the ability to create revenue. The Company has 
concluded that the acquired set is a business.

The acquisition of Medipass adds an innovative cardless digital healthcare claiming and payment platform, that seamlessly 
links practitioners, funders and patients. Medipass’ digital health payments platform will be integrated with the Company’s 
card-present health solution to provide a unified health payment offering that delivers both card-present and card-not-present 
transactions. The acquisition will provide the Company’s health merchants greater claiming and payment capabilities extending 
beyond the Company’s private health insurer and Medicare Easyclaim options to include a range of State and Federal based 
compensatory funders.

As part of the transaction, a non-recourse loan totalling $1,675,138 was made to Medipass option holders to allow them to 
exercise their options prior to the completion of the deal. The Tyro shares that were issued in exchange for these shares are 
being held in escrow with a holding lock period of 1-3 years and will be issued only on repayment of the loan.

These shares have been treated as share options in Tyro’s equity reserves. They have been valued using the Black-Scholes 
method and recognised in the Share-Based Payment Reserve. For further detail on how Tyro values its share options, see Note 
1(c) and Note 14.

Equity instruments issued 
The fair value of ordinary shares issued was based on the listed share price of the Company at 31 May 2021 of $3.78 per share.

Basic loss per share shows the loss attributable to each ordinary share. It is calculated as the net loss attributable to ordinary 
shareholders divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in each year.

Diluted loss per share shows the loss attributable to each ordinary share if all the dilutive potential ordinary shares had been 
ordinary shares. There are no discontinued operations of the Group.

This includes fees in the capacity as the appointed auditor under APRA’s APS 310 Audit and Audit Related Matters.

The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services, during the year, by the auditor (or by another person or firm 
on the auditor’s behalf) is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 
2001. 

The Directors are of the opinion that the services disclosed above 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 APES 110 Code of 

Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or 
auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Group, acting as an advocate 
for the Group or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

27.  Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year
In the opinion of the Directors, there have been no matters or circumstances which have arisen between 30 June 2022 and the 
date of this report that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the result of those 
operations or the state of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial years.

28.  Contingent liabilities
In relation to the terminal outage incident in January 2021, a class action proceeding was filed against Tyro in October 2021 in 
the Federal Court of Australia on behalf of customers impacted by the terminal outage incident. The class action is the subject 
of Tyro’s previous ASX announcement on 20 October 2021. The class action alleges that Tyro engaged in misleading and 
deceptive conduct, contravened certain statutory guarantees and breached certain contractual warranties. The claim seeks 
compensation and damages from Tyro. Tyro denies the allegations and is defending the proceedings.

It is currently not possible to reliably determine the ultimate impact on the Group of the claims raised in this proceeding and 
accordingly no provision has been recognised.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Tyro Payments Limited 
Report on the audit of the financial report 

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

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

a.  Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2022 

and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and 

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

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

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

Key audit matters 
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of 
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide 
a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit 
addressed the matter is provided in that context. 

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the 
financial report section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit 
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of 
material misstatement of the financial report. The results of our audit procedures, including the 
procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the 
accompanying financial report.

Valuation of contingent consideration 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

As detailed in Note 1(c) of the financial report, the 
Group has a long-term merchant acquiring alliance 
with Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Limited.  The 
consideration under the alliance contract included 
a contingent component based on future revenue 
that is recorded as a liability. The contingent 
consideration is required to be re-measured at 
each reporting date to reflect the Group’s 
estimate of the amount of further consideration it 
expects to pay. 

Given the value of the contingent consideration 
liability recorded and the judgement involved in 
measuring the liability, this was considered to be a 
key audit matter. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  Read the purchase agreements to obtain an 

understanding of the key terms. 

•  Evaluated, with the involvement of our 

valuation experts, the methodology used by 
the Group to determine the value of the 
contingent consideration at reporting date, 
the underlying assumptions and estimates 
applied, and the mathematical accuracy of 
the supporting calculations. 
•  We considered the consistency of 

judgements and assumptions made with 
respect to other accounting estimates and 
models. 

•  Evaluated the financial performance of the 
alliance against forecasts on which the 
valuation of the contingent consideration is 
based. 

•  Assessed the adequacy of the related 
disclosures within the financial report 
regarding the contingent consideration.  

Remediation provisions 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

As detailed in Note 17, during the financial year, 
the Group has recorded and made disclosures in 
relation to matters requiring merchant 
remediation in connection with a terminal outage 
incident in January 2021 that affected some of 
the Group’s EFTPOS terminal fleet held by 
merchants.  

This was a key audit matter due to the significant 
judgment required to determine a reliable estimate 
of the provision.  

Key areas of judgment included: 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  We developed an understanding of the 

Group’s processes for identifying potential 
merchant-related remediation obligations. 

•  We held discussions with management, 
reviewed Board of Directors and Board 
committee minutes, reviewed 
correspondence with merchants and 
attended Board Audit Committee and Board 
Risk Committee meetings. 

•  We discussed ongoing and potential legal 

matters with management, including General 
Counsel, and obtained external legal 
confirmations.

TYRO PAYMENTS LIMITED - ANNUAL REPORT 2022FINANCIAL REPORT 
 
 
 
Page 3 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

•  The decision as to whether to recognise a 
provision and/or disclose a contingent 
liability, including whether sufficient 
information existed to allow a provision to 
be reliably measured; and 

•  Assumptions used to estimate the 

merchant related remediation payments, 
including how many merchants will claim 
compensation and average compensation 
amounts. 

•  We assessed key assumptions used to 

estimate the merchant-related remediation 
amounts, including testing of compensation 
experience to date.  

•  Tested the mathematical accuracy of the 

provision calculations made. 

•  For those matters where the Group 

determined that a sufficiently reliable 
estimate of the amount of the obligation 
could not be made and for which no 
provisions have been recognised, we 
assessed the appropriateness of this 
conclusion and any related contingent 
liability disclosure. 

•  We considered the existence of any economic 
benefits that would require disclosure as 
contingent assets. 

•  We considered the adequacy of the 

disclosures within the financial report related 
to the provision. 

Recoverability of deferred tax assets 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The financial statements include $13.0 million of 
deferred tax assets. The assessment of their 
recoverability was subject to significant 
judgements made by the Group in forecasting 
future taxable profits and determining the 
availability and expected timing of utilising the 
deferred tax assets against future taxable income 
in accordance with tax legislation. 

The judgements involve expected business growth 
which is dependent upon market and economic 
conditions and the ability of the Group to generate 
sufficient future taxable profits. 

Accordingly, this was considered to be a key audit 
matter. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  Assessed the mathematical accuracy of the 

Group’s deferred tax asset utilisation model.  

•  Agreed the amount of unused tax benefits 

carried forward as deferred tax assets to 
prior period lodged income tax returns.  
•  Evaluated the Group’s assumptions and 
estimates in relation to the likelihood of 
generating sufficient future taxable income 
based on most recent Board approved 
forecasts, prepared by the Group, principally 
by performing sensitivity analyses and 
evaluating and testing the key assumptions 
used to determine the amounts recognised. 

•  Considered the consistency of judgements 

and assumptions made with respect to other 
accounting estimates and models.

Page 4 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Disclosures relating to deferred tax assets are set 
out in in Notes 1(c) and 4. 

•  Assessed the historical accuracy of the 

Group’s previous future taxable profit 
forecasts by comparing to actual outcomes.  

• 

Involved our taxation specialists in reviewing 
the Group’s assessment of their ability to 
utilise carry forward tax losses in accordance 
with income tax legislation. 

Revenue recognition – merchant service fees 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

As detailed in Note 2 of the financial report, the 
Group generated $283.6 million in revenue from 
merchant service fees for the year ended 30 June 
2022. 

Given the importance of revenue to the users of 
the financial report, specifically as a key 
performance indicator for the Group and a key 
metric for senior management of the Group, this 
was considered to be a key audit matter. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  Evaluated the Group’s revenue accounting 

and assessed whether the Group’s 
accounting policies complied with the 
requirements of Australian Accounting 
Standards. 

•  Assessed the operating effectiveness of key 
controls over the recording of revenue. 

•  For a sample of merchant service fee 
revenue transactions, we obtained 
supporting evidence such as customer 
contracts and transaction records to support 
the timing and value of revenue recognised.  

•  Analysed accounting entries impacting 

revenue that did not arise from the system-
generated reporting of underlying 
transactions. 

IT systems and controls over financial reporting 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The Group’s operations and financial reporting 
systems are heavily dependent on IT systems, 
including automated accounting procedures and IT 
dependent manual controls. The Group’s controls 
over IT systems include: 

•  The framework of governance over IT 

systems; 

•  Controls over program development and 

changes; 

Our procedures included evaluating and testing the 
design and operating effectiveness of certain 
controls over the continued integrity of the IT 
systems that are relevant to financial reporting.

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation

Page 5 

•  Controls over access to programs, data 

and IT operations; and 

•  Governance over generic and privileged 

user accounts. 

Given the reliance on the IT systems in the 
financial reporting process, we considered this to 
be a key audit matter. 

We also carried out specific tests, on a sample basis, 
of system functionality that was key to our audit 
approach in order to assess the accuracy of certain 
system calculations, the generation of certain 
reports and the operation of certain system enforced 
access controls. 

Where we noted design or operating effectiveness 
matters relating to IT system controls relevant to our 
audit, we performed alternative audit procedures. 
We also considered mitigating controls in order to 
respond to the impact on our overall audit approach.  

Carrying value of goodwill 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

As detailed in Note 13, the Group recorded $13.7 
million in goodwill as at 30 June 2022. Goodwill is 
tested annually for impairment and requires the 
Group to estimate the recoverable amount of the 
relevant cash-generating unit (CGU) to be 
determined. The key inputs and judgements 
involved in the impairment assessment includes: 

•  Determination of CGUs; 
•  Discount rates, terminal growth rates and 
revenue and expense assumptions used in 
the discounted cashflow models; and 

•  Considering the sensitivity of the 

impairment assessment to reasonable 
possible changes in key assumptions. 

Given the high degree of judgement and 
complexity in assessing the carrying value of 
goodwill, we considered this to be a key audit 
matter. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  Assessed the Group’s determination of CGUs 
used in the impairment model, based on our 
understanding of the nature of the Group’s 
business and the economic environment in 
which it operates. 

•  Understood and evaluated the Group’s 

process for performing goodwill impairment 
assessments and the determination of any 
asset impairment outcomes. 

•  We involved our valuation specialists to 

assist in assessing the appropriateness of the 
impairment models including key inputs into 
the models such as the discount rates and 
growth rates. 

•  We tested the mathematical accuracy of the 

impairment models. 

•  We assessed whether cash flow forecasts 

incorporated in the impairment assessment 
were consistent with Board approved 
forecasts. 

•  We assessed the Group’s sensitivity analysis 
and evaluated whether any reasonably 
foreseeable change in assumptions could 
lead to an impairment.  

•  We assessed the adequacy of the disclosures 

in Note 13 to the financial report.

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon 
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the 
information included in the Group’s 2022 annual report, but does not include the financial report and 
our auditor’s report thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report 
and our related assurance opinion. 

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

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

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

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

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

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional 
judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: 

► 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to 
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit 
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not 
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from 
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the 
override of internal control. 

►  Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit 

procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an 
opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

►  Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting 

estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. 

►  Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting 
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to 
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going 
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in 
our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are 
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up 
to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to 
cease to continue as a going concern.  

►  Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the 

disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events 
in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 

►  Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or 

business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are 
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely 
responsible for our audit opinion. 

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of 
the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we 
identify during our audit. 

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical 
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other 
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions 
taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. 

From the matters communicated to the directors, we determine those matters that were of most 
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current year and are therefore the key audit 
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public 
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter 
should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would 
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
