C H A I R M A N ’ S L E T T E R
Dear Shareholders,
This is the first time I have had the privilege of reporting to you in an Annual Report, as Chairman of Vmoto Limited. As
you would be aware, I joined the Board on 31 May 2017, giving me seven months at the helm through to the end of the
2017 financial year. During that time, as requested by many of you, I endeavoured to provide regular updates on progress
against our five year strategic plan to transition Vmoto into a world leading provider of electric vehicles (EVs) to business
to business (B2B) delivery, business fleet, renting, sharing and B2C markets internationally. Your feedback on these
updates has been encouraging and I would now like to give you an overview of the highlights of the 2017 financial year
for Vmoto and my insights into the year ahead.
Following my appointment, I initiated a “roots and branch” review of the Company to ensure we had the business
fundamentals right and upon which we could build a sustainable future. The review identified several opportunities to
fast track the Company’s strategic plan. It also identified a number of legacy issues that were distracting our executive
management team from executing on our strategy and, as a result, the decision was taken to exit from operations that were
not considered value accretive to the Company. Unfortunately, that also resulted in some asset impairments for the 2017
financial year, however I firmly believe the decision to exit these businesses was the right one for shareholders over the
longer term.
On a positive note, Vmoto undertook a number of initiatives during the year that I am confident will support the successful
execution of our strategic plan. Notably, a business cooperation agreement was reached with emerging industrial design
and innovative technology EV company, Super Soco, for Super Soco to relocate to and lease a portion of Vmoto’s Nanjing
manufacturing facility and for Vmoto to undertake international sales and marketing of Super Soco products via its
existing and expanding distribution network.
A new state of the art production line was installed in Vmoto’s manufacturing facility and is now fully operational. Both
Vmoto and Super Soco models are being produced on the same production line. The new production line will assist Vmoto
in meeting the increasing demand for Vmoto delivery models, especially from Europe. Vmoto and Super Soco have also
agreed to cooperate on R&D to improve and develop more electric two-wheel vehicle models for international markets.
This will allow for technology and experience sharing to produce better market attuned products. The aim is to also
provide improved supply chain efficiencies and cost savings in the production of Vmoto and Super Soco models.
During the year, Vmoto and Super Soco participated jointly in the 2017 EICMA international motorcycle exhibition, one
of the world’s largest exhibitions and events for two-wheel vehicles, held in Milan, Italy in November 2017. I was
privileged to be able to attend this exhibition and, as reported previously, interest was incredibly strong in the joint Vmoto,
Super Soco product offering. Vmoto continues to work on converting this interest and leads into sales, which we expect to
see the benefit from in FY2018.
The strategic review identified that the B2B market in Europe was growing rapidly, with business customers in the last
mile delivery market preferring to lease or rent, rather than purchase units outright. To capitalise on this, the Company
established a Netherlands subsidiary and warehouse to facilitate ramp up of sales into European markets and sought
opportunities to penetrate the B2B delivery, fleet, renting and sharing market. In October we announced an arrangement
with Greenmo Rent BV, a European company focused on renting electric scooters to food delivery companies, to supply
additional units on commercial terms. Post the end of the financial year, we raised approximately $2.2 million via a
placement and Share Purchase Plan to further expand our European distribution network, expand our warehouse in
Europe to accelerate sales into European markets, and to assist in expansion of the international B2B leasing business. We
believe we are now well placed to capitalise on this market.
Vmoto has undertaken other initiatives to increase revenue and defray costs during the year including leasing excess
capacity at its manufacturing facility to third parties and entering into an agreement to license Vmoto’s PowerEagle
trademark to a domestic Chinese EV company.

C H A I R M A N ’ S L E T T E R
Looking forward now to FY2018, I am confident we have put in place the foundations to enable us to successfully focus
on and implement our strategic plan. We are well funded and strategically well positioned to capitalise on international
markets, where the environmental benefits of EV vehicles and the concepts of leased last-mile delivery vehicles and shared
fleet access are being embraced. All indications are that our decision to focus on international B2B delivery, business fleet,
renting, sharing and B2C markets internationally was the right one and I am optimistic of being able to report positive
progress to you this year.
I would like to sincerely thank all Vmoto shareholders for their continued support and I look forward to meeting you at
the Annual General Meeting in May 2018.
Yours faithfully
Phillip Campbell
Non-Executive Chairman

OVERVIEW
Vmoto Limited (ASX: VMT), the global electric vehicle manufacturing and distribution group specialising in “green”
electric powered two-wheel vehicles, provides the following operations review for the year ended 31 December 2017.
During the year, the Vmoto undertook an extensive strategic review of operations with the intention of simplifying the
Company’s structure and allowing management to focus on international sales and marketing of high margin electric two-
wheel vehicle products and significant projects. The review identified several opportunities to fast track the Company’s
five year strategic plan to transition Vmoto into a world leading provider of EV’s to B2B delivery, business fleet, renting,
sharing and B2C markets internationally, and as well as recommending the exit from operations that were not considered
value accretive to the Company.
During the year, the Company entered a business cooperation agreement with Super Soco to deepen the business
relationship between the companies and which will see cooperation on manufacturing, supply chain management,
component sourcing, product development, R&D and international sales and marketing. Super Soco relocated its
manufacturing from rented premises in Wuxi to lease a significant part of Vmoto’s Nanjing manufacturing facility which
was excess to requirements. As part of the agreement, the international sales and marketing of the Super Soco products
will be carried out by Vmoto through its existing and expanding international distribution network. Vmoto and Super
Soco have also agreed to cooperate on R&D to improve existing and develop new electric two-wheel vehicle models for
international markets.
Working together in the shared manufacturing facility is expected to produce benefits of scale and create significant
synergies for both organisations, for example in component sourcing where minimum order quantities from a preferred
supplier may be higher than each companies individual requirements. The relationship with Super Soco is also expected
to enable the Company to save on R&D costs while at the same time providing access to superior industrial design
intelligence and networks, given that most of Super Soco’s existing R&D engineers have many years of working experience
with Honda China.
As a result of the Super Soco opportunity and refocus on international markets from Chinese domestic markets, the
Company simplified its structure by exiting Chinese domestic business Shanghai Jiye Electric Vehicle Co, Ltd (Shanghai
Jiye), which was not value accretive and was seen as a distraction from management’s focus on the international strategy.
While this has impacted on the Company’s financial results for FY2017, the Company is of the view that this will enable
management to be more focused on international electric two-wheel vehicle markets where Vmoto has a strategic
competitive advantage.
The Company also invested significant resources during the year into developing new models to meet international
customer requirements, participating in international market exhibitions and developing key relationships in support of
its strategic plan.
Over the 12 month period to 31 December 2017, the Consolidated Entity’s net assets decreased 37% to $13 million (31
December 2016: $20.8 million). It should be noted that the Company engaged an independent external property valuation
company in the year ended 31 December 2017 to value the Company’s Nanjing land and Stage 1 & Stage 2 buildings. These
land and buildings are currently carried at cost on the balance sheet as at 31 December 2017 at $5.9 million. The external
property valuation company has valued the Company’s Nanjing land and Stage 1 & Stage 2 buildings at $11.8 million,
which represents a valuation increment of $5.9 million. With the level of urban development surrounding the Company’s
Nanjing manufacturing facility, the Company expects the value of its Nanjing manufacturing facilities (land and buildings)
will increase further in the coming years.
As at 31 December 2017, the total operating facility drawn down was RMB10 million (approximately $2 million) and the
total undrawn operating facility available was RMB15 million (approximately $3 million).

As at 31 December 2017 the Company had cash of $3.2 million and post the end of the financial year, successfully raised
$2.2 million to further expand Company’s European distribution network and warehouse and expand the Company’s B2B
renting business.
EXISTING MARKETS
During the period, the Company achieved total unit sales of 68,368 units of electric two-wheel vehicles across the Group,
down 20% from FY2016 (FY2016: 85,106) across its domestic and international sales channel. Of this, the Company sold
approximately 56,523 units of electric two-wheel vehicles across China through the Shanghai Jiye operations and its
external distributors.
While total unit sales were down on FY2016, the Company’s total unit sales for units into international markets, which are
higher value and higher margin, increased by 53% from FY2016.
Internationally, the Company continued its strong relationships with its B2B and B2C customers, with many placing orders
that will flow through in FY2018.
NEW MARKETS
During the year, Vmoto and Super Soco participated jointly in the 2017 EICMA international motorcycle exhibition, one
of the world’s largest exhibitions and events for two-wheel vehicles, held in Milan, Italy in November 2017. Strong interest
was shown in the joint Vmoto, Super Soco product offering. Vmoto has since received significant interest and sales leads
and is focussed on converting these into sales in the coming months.
During the year, the Company finalised an agreement with Greenmo Rent BV to support Greenmo Rent’s growth and
accelerate the Company’s penetration into these European markets.
Greenmo Rent is a European company which predominantly rents electric scooters to food delivery companies. The
agreement with Vmoto comes after Greenmo Rent has experienced significant growth of its scooter renting business and
to support expansion into the Netherlands and across Europe. The Company initially supplied six containers of electric
scooters for 100% upfront payment. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company agreed to supply an additional four
containers with 25% upfront payment and the remaining 75% payable in monthly instalments over a 24 month period.
The Company signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Kuralkan Bilisim Otomotiv San Ve Dis Tic A.S., a successful
and well known Turkish company, to warehouse, distribute and market the Company’s Soco range of electric motorcycles
in Turkey.
An exclusive distribution agreement was also signed with E-Tropolis Srl (“E-Tropolis”) for E-Tropolis to warehouse,
distribute and market the Company’s Vmoto, E-Max and Soco range of electric two-wheel vehicle products in Italy. E-
Tropolis (www.e-tropolis.it) is one of Europe’s leading specialists in two wheeled electric vehicles and offers a broad
portfolio with a high degree of quality and performance ranging from pedelecs and classic e-scooters to high-performance
electric motorbikes.
With ongoing technological innovation, increasing inner city transportation issues and the recent success of hi-tech sharing
companies such as Uber, Mobike and Zipcar, the sharing economy is booming and consumers are embracing the concept
of shared fleets. With consumer and business group preferences shifting from ownership to shared access, we believe it is
an ideal time to provide shared fleet solutions that will fast track the Company’s international footprint.
The Company also expects to continuously improve the technology behind its existing electric two-wheel vehicle products
and develop new electric two-wheel vehicle products to remain competitive in the EV markets and win high quality
international business group customers. The Company also expects to increase its global sales by targeting B2B customers,
especially in the delivery and fast food sectors, and appointing more international distributors.

OUTLOOK
Commenting on the Company’s outlook for FY2018, Managing Director Mr Charles Chen said:
“Moving into 2018, the Company is ambitiously building a sophisticated international distribution network with Vmoto
E-Max B2B products and Super Soco B2C products, with an initial focus on Europe. With this strong network, aggressive
sales and marketing campaigns will be launched by Vmoto directly and in cooperation with partners, expanding B2B
channels and appointed exclusive agents/distributors.
“The Company’s solid business and manufacturing foundation in China now includes stronger supply chain,
manufacturing and production and R&D capabilities following the business cooperation agreement between Vmoto and
Super Soco. We expect that the benefits and synergies from this relationship will start to flow in FY2018 and support our
strategy in the coming years. In addition to the strong foundations in China, as an Australian listed company with a
“Western” brand, management is confident Vmoto is now poised to deliver on its strategy to be a world leading provider
of electric two-wheel vehicles to B2B delivery, business fleet, renting, sharing and B2C markets internationally.”

Operating and Financial Review
Review of Operations
Vmoto Limited is a global scooter manufacturing and distribution group. The Company specialises in high quality “green”
electric powered two-wheel vehicles and manufactures a range of “Western” style electric two-wheel vehicles from its
own manufacturing facilities in Nanjing, China. Vmoto combines low cost Chinese manufacturing capabilities with
European design. The Group operates through three primary brands: Vmoto (aimed at the budget market in Asia), E-Max
(targeting international B2B markets, with a premium high-end product) and Super Soco (targeting the international B2C
markets). As well as operating under these brands, the Company also sells to a number of customers on an original
equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) basis.

Total consolidated sales of $15.1 million were recorded for the Consolidated Entity for the year ended 31 December 2017
(FY2016: $17.3 million). The revenue of the Consolidated Entity has decreased 12.7% compared to the year ended 31
December 2016, largely due to a downturn in domestic Chinese electric two-wheel vehicle market. During the year ended
31 December 2017, the Consolidated Entity recorded a net loss of $8.1 million after income tax (FY2016: $14.1 million),
which included one-off, non-cash costs of $141k for share based expenses, $240k in impairment of the Company’s
investment in Kaiyang, a $1.5 million loss on disposal of the 51% interest in Shanghai Jiye operations, a $1.2 million partial
impairment of the PowerEagle trademark and a $1.8 million impairment of prepayments. The underlying net loss after tax
for the year ended 31 December 2017 after adding back these one-off, non-cash expenses was $3,140,865.
The following table provides a reconciliation between the statutory net loss after tax and underlying net loss after tax for
the year ended 31 December 2017:

Directors believe this information is useful to provide investors with transparency on the underlying performance of the
Company.
A more detailed review of operations for the year ended 31 December 2017 is set out in the Operations Review preceding
the Directors’ Report.
Review of Financial Position
The Consolidated Entity’s net assets decreased by approximately $7.8 million during the year ended 31 December 2017.
Cash balances decreased by approximately $1.2 million during the year ended 31 December 2017 primarily due to cash
used in operational activities during the year, including higher prepayments required to be made to suppliers for
inventories for the international markets.
Trade and other receivables have decreased by approximately $1.5 million largely due to more timely receipts from
customers and reduced provision of credit to customers.
Inventories decreased by approximately $4.2 million largely due to the sale of Vmoto’s interest in the Shanghai Jiye
business.
Prepayments decreased by approximately $0.8 million largely due to the impairment of $1.8 million of aged prepayments
for parts considered unlikely to be utilised in the short term following the Company’s exit from Shanghai Jiye, cooperation
with Super Soco and new strategic focus on international markets, which was offset by higher prepayments to suppliers
for Super Soco products for the international markets. The prepayments that have been impaired relate to parts ordered
historically as “minimum orders” when the Company first entered into the EV business, at which time suppliers required
minimum order quantities to manufacture customised parts for Vmoto’s older EV models. The Company has sought to
utilise these prepayments by working with the suppliers to modify and upgrade parts to suit the Company’s new models,
and for after sales service however it is uncertain how long it will take to extinguish these credits with the suppliers. The
Company has therefore adopted the conservative approach of impairing the value of these prepayments. Despite the
impairment, the applicable credit in relation to the impaired aged prepayments with suppliers still exists and the Company
will continue to seek to utilise these prepayments as much as possible.
Intangible assets decreased by approximately $3.5 million due to the impairment of the Shanghai Jiye customer base
intangible as a result of Vmoto’s sale of its interest in the Shanghai Jiye business and the partial impairment of the
PowerEagle trademark.

Trade and other payables decreased by approximately $1.8 million during the period primarily due to the sale of the
interest in the Shanghai Jiye business and higher level of deposits and orders received from customers in advance, for
which the revenue will be recognised in FY2018.
Issued capital increased by $1 million during the year ended 31 December 2017, primarily due to the issue of Tranche 2
shares to nominees of PowerEagle for the acquisition of their trademark in December 2015 and shares issued to key
management during the year ended 31 December 2017.
No dividend has been declared or paid by the Company to the date of this Annual Report in respect of the year ended 31
December 2017.

D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O R T ( C O N T ’ D )
The potential material business risks faced by the Company that are likely to have an effect on the financial prospects of
the Company and how the Company manages these risks include:
•
Technological obsolescence – given the Company operates in an industry involving green and electric vehicle
technology, any technological obsolescence could have an impact on our financial results. We address this risk
through investment in research and development, patent appropriate and necessary research and development
results, recruit competent technicians and constantly monitor the market. We see this risk as minimal as the
Company is constantly developing new technology and functions in its electric two-wheel vehicle products and
has the protection of trademarks and patents.
Impact of legislation and other external requirements
The Consolidated Entity’s operations are not subject to any significant environmental regulations. The Board believes that
the Consolidated Entity has adequate systems in place for the management of its environmental regulations and is not
aware of any breach of those environmental requirements as they apply to the Consolidated Entity.
Clean Energy Legislative Package
The Clean Energy Legislative Package, which included the Clean Energy Act 2011, was passed by the Australian
Government in November 2011. It sets out the way that the government will introduce a carbon price to reduce Australia’s
carbon pollution and move to a clean energy future.
The Consolidated Entity’s manufacturing activities are primarily carried out in China and the Directors believe that the
Group will not be significantly affected by this legislation passed. The Consolidated Entity has not incorporated the effect
of any carbon price implementation in its impairment testing at 31 December 2017.
The Directors’ view is that there were no changes in environmental or other legislative requirements during the year that
have significantly affected the results or operations of the Consolidated Entity.

Other than the above and as noted elsewhere in the financial statements, there has not arisen in the interval between the

This remuneration report outlines the Director and executive remuneration arrangements of the Company and the
Consolidated Entity.
The Board as a whole is responsible for considering remuneration policies and packages applicable both to Directors and
executives of the Company and the Consolidated Entity.
Key Management Personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the
Company and the Consolidated Entity, including Directors of the Company and other executives. Key Management
Personnel comprise the Directors of the Company, key management and executives for the Company and the Consolidated
Entity.
Director and Key Management Personnel details
The following persons acted as Directors of the Company during or since the end of the financial year:
• Mr Phillip Campbell (appointed 31 May 2017)
• Mr Charles Chen
• Mr Ivan Teo
• Mr Kaijian Chen
• Ms Shannon Coates
• Mr Oliver Cairns (ceased 31 May 2017)
The term ‘Key Management Personnel’ is used in this remuneration report to refer to the Directors and the following
persons. Except as noted, the named persons held their position during or since the end of the financial year:
• Mr Shuguang Han (General Manager)
• Mr Leon Wan (Vice General Manager)
• Mr Fei Wu (International Sales Manager)
• Ms Susan Xie (International Sales Manager)
• Mr Yunfei He (Production Manager)
Overview of remuneration policies
Broadly, remuneration levels for Key Management Personnel of the Company and Key Management Personnel of the
Consolidated Entity are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced Directors and
executives and reward the achievement of strategic objectives. The Board may seek independent advice on the
appropriateness of remuneration packages of both the Company and the Consolidated Entity given trends in comparative
companies both locally and internationally, and the objectives of the Company’s remuneration strategy.
Remuneration packages consist of fixed remuneration including base salary, employer contributions to superannuation
funds and non-cash benefits.
The Company has established a variable remuneration package for Directors, which is known as the Performance Rights
Plan. This plan allows Directors to convert Performance Rights to fully paid ordinary shares for nil cash consideration,
subject to performance based vesting conditions.
Fixed remuneration
Fixed remuneration consists of base remuneration (which is calculated on a total cost basis and includes any FBT charges
related to employee benefits including motor vehicle), as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds.
Remuneration levels are reviewed annually by the Board through a process that considers individual, segment and overall
performance of the Consolidated Entity. The Board has regard to remuneration levels external to the Consolidated Entity
to ensure the Directors’ and executives’ remuneration is competitive in the market place.
Executive Directors are employed full time and receive fixed remuneration in the form of salary and statutory
superannuation or consultancy fees, commensurate with their required level of services.

R E M U N E R A T I O N R E P O R T ( c o n t ’ d )
Non-Executive Directors receive a fixed monthly fee for their services. Where Non-Executive Directors provide services
materially outside their usual Board duties, they are remunerated on an agreed retainer or daily rate basis.
Service agreements
It is the Consolidated Entity’s policy that service agreements for Key Management Personnel are unlimited in term but
capable of termination on 3 months’ notice and that the Consolidated Entity retains the right to terminate the service
agreements immediately, by making payment equal to 3 months’ pay in lieu of notice.
The service agreement outlines the components of compensation paid to Key Management Personnel but does not
prescribe how remuneration levels are modified year to year. Remuneration levels are reviewed annually on a date as
close as possible to 31 December of each year to take into account Key Management Personnel’s performance.
Certain Key Management Personnel will be entitled to bonuses as the Board may decide in its absolute discretion from
time to time, to a maximum of 50% of the Key Management Personnel’s annual base salary per annum.
Non-Executive Directors
Total remuneration for all Non-Executive Directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 2012 Annual General Meeting,
is not to exceed A$300,000 per annum and has been set at a level to enable the Company to attract and retain suitably
qualified Directors. The Company does not have any scheme relating to retirement benefits for Non-Executive Directors.
Relationship between the remuneration policy and Company performance
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, Directors and executives.
Two methods have been applied to achieve this aim, the first being a performance-based rights subject to performance
based vesting conditions, and the second being the issue of options or shares to Key Management Personnel to encourage
the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Company believes this policy was effective in increasing
shareholder wealth.

Share-based payment arrangements
Shares
During the year ended 31 December 2017, 2.9 million shares were granted to Key Management Personnel as an incentive
and to recognise their efforts in the year ended 31 December 2017. The shares granted to Key Management Personnel are
subject to a three-year voluntary escrow period.
Options
The Company operates an Employee Share Option Plan (“ESOP”) for executives and senior employees of the
Consolidated Entity. In accordance with the provisions of the ESOP, executives and senior employees may be granted
options to purchase ordinary shares at an exercise price to be determined by the Board with regard to the market value
of the shares when it resolves to offer the options. The options may only be granted to eligible persons after the Board
considers the person’s seniority, position, length of service, record of employment, potential contribution and any other
matters which the Board considers relevant.
Each employee share option converts into one ordinary share of Vmoto Limited on exercise. No amounts are paid or
payable to the Company by the recipient on receipt of the option. The options carry neither rights to dividends nor voting
rights. Options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of their expiry.
The number of options granted is determined by the Board.
To date, options granted under the ESOP expire within thirty six months of their issue, or immediately on the resignation
of the executive or senior employee, whichever is the earlier.
During the year ended 31 December 2017, the following share based payment options arrangements were in existence:

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Vmoto Limited (“Vmoto” or “the Company”) is a limited company incorporated in Australia. The consolidated financial
report of the Company as at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries
(together referred to as the “Consolidated Entity”).
(a) Basis of preparation
(i)
Statement of compliance
The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standards (AASBs) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting
Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial report of the Consolidated Entity
complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and interpretations adopted by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 29th March 2018.
(ii)
Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements of the Consolidated Entity are prepared on an accruals basis and are based on
historical costs except where otherwise stated.
(iii)
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements of the Consolidated Entity are presented in Australian dollars, which is
different from its functional currency, determined to be Renminbi. A different presentation currency has been
adopted as the Board of Directors believe that financial statements presented in Australian dollar (which is the
functional currency of parent company) are more useful to the users and shareholders of the Company who are
predominantly in Australia.
(iv)
Standards and interpretations affecting amounts reported in current period (and/or prior periods)
New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the
Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption
of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance
or position of the group during the financial year.
Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been
early adopted.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the group for the annual reporting period ended 31 December 2017. The
group's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant
to the group, are set out below:
AASB 9 Financial Instruments
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard replaces
all previous versions of AASB 9 and completes the project to replace IAS 39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and
Measurement'. AASB 9 introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets. A financial asset
shall be measured at amortised cost, if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to
collect contractual cash flows, which arise on specified dates and solely principal and interest. All other financial
instrument assets are to be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss unless the entity makes an
irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on equity instruments (that are not held-for-
trading) in other comprehensive income ('OCI').
29
V M O T O L I M I T E D
A B N 3 6 0 9 8 4 5 5 4 6 0
N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S ( c o n t ’ d )
For financial liabilities, the standard requires the portion of the change in fair value that relates to the entity's own
credit risk to be presented in OCI (unless it would create an accounting mismatch). New simpler hedge accounting
requirements are intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of the
entity. New impairment requirements will use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognise an allowance.
Impairment will be measured under a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has
increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. The standard
introduces additional new disclosures. The group is currently continuing to assess the impact of this changes.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard provides
a single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue
to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which
the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either
written, verbal or implied) to be identified, together with the separate performance obligations within the contract;
determine the transaction price, adjusted for the time value of money excluding credit risk; allocation of the
transaction price to the separate performance obligations on a basis of relative stand-alone selling price of each
distinct good or service, or estimation approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue
when each performance obligation is satisfied. Credit risk will be presented separately as an expense rather than
adjusted to revenue. For goods, the performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of
the goods. For services, the performance obligation is satisfied when the service has been provided, typically for
promises to transfer services to customers. For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an
appropriate measure of progress to determine how much revenue should be recognised as the performance
obligation is satisfied. Contracts with customers will be presented in an entity's statement of financial position as a
contract liability, a contract asset, or a receivable, depending on the relationship between the entity's performance
and the customer's payment. Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required to enable users to
understand the contracts with customers; the significant judgements made in applying the guidance to those
contracts; and any assets recognised from the costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. The group is
currently continuing to assess the impact of this changes.
AASB 16 Leases
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces
AASB 117 ‘Leases’ and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to
exceptions, a ‘right-of-use’ asset will be capitalised in the statement of financial position, measured as the present
value of the unavoidable future lease payments to be made over the lease term. The exceptions relate to short-term
leases of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers and small office furniture)
where an accounting policy choice exists whereby either a ‘right-of-use’ asset is recognised or lease payments are
expensed to profit or loss as incurred. A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised,
adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future
restoration, removal or dismantling costs. Straight-line operating lease expense recognition will be replaced with a
depreciation charge for the leased asset (included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease
liability (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease under
AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under AASB 117. However EBITDA (Earnings Before
Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results will be improved as the operating expense is replaced by
interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss under AASB 16. For classification within the statement of cash
flows, the lease payments will be separated into both a principal (financing activities) and interest (either operating
or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor
accounts for leases. The group is currently continuing to assess the impact of this changes.

Going concern basis
The Consolidated Entity has recorded a loss after tax for the year ended 31 December 2017 of $8,096,672 (loss after
tax for the year ended 31 December 2016: $14,092,903). At 31 December 2017, the Consolidated Entity had a working
capital surplus of $4,623,771 (31 December 2016: $8,886,503).
•
The Directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of
normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
The Directors believe this to be appropriate for the following reasons:
•
the Consolidated Entity has a significant working capital surplus;
•
the Consolidated Entity has long term supply agreements and demand for its electric powered scooter products
is increasing. As the units increase, this will further reduce the cost of goods manufactured due to achieving
higher levels of economies of scale, which will further improve the gross profit margins;
the Consolidated Entity will further reduce corporate and other non-sales resources without materially affecting
revenue activities;
the Consolidated Entity’s Stage 1 and 2 of the Nanjing Facility have been completed and have been used as
security for its existing operating facility. As at the date of this Annual Report, RMB15 million (approximately $3
million) of the operating facility is still available for draw down if required;
the Consolidated Entity has successfully raised capital of $2.2 million post 31 December 2017 to further expand
into European markets as well as expand its B2B leasing business; and
the Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts that indicate the Consolidated Entity will be cash flow positive
for the year ending 31 December 2018 and will enable the Consolidated Entity to pay its debts as and when they
fall due.
•
•
•
At the date of this Annual Report and having considered the above factors, the Directors are confident that the
Consolidated Entity and the Company will be able to continue operations into the foreseeable future.
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the consolidated
financial statements, and have been applied consistently by all entities in the Consolidated Entity.
(b) Principles of consolidation
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power to govern the
financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential
voting rights that currently are exercisable are taken into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are
included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control
ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies
adopted by the Consolidated Entity.
Non-controlling interests in equity and results of the entities that are controlled by the Company are shown as a
separate item in the consolidated financial statements.
In Note 24, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost and recoverable amount. Refer to Note 1(o).
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Unrealised gains and losses and inter-entity balances resulting from transactions with or between subsidiaries are
eliminated in full on consolidation.
(c) Foreign currency translation
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic
environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars,
which is the parent entity’s functional currency.

N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S ( c o n t ’ d )
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency at the exchange rates ruling at the
date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate
of exchange ruling at the reporting date.
All differences in the consolidated financial report are taken to the profit & loss with the exception of differences on
foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken
directly to equity until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognised in the profit & loss.
Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those borrowings are also recognised in equity.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the
exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date
when the fair value was determined.
As at the reporting date the assets and liabilities of these overseas subsidiaries are translated into the presentation
currency of Vmoto at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date and the income statements are translated at
the weighted average exchange rates for the period where this rate approximates the rate at the date of the
transaction.
The exchange differences arising on the retranslation are taken directly to a separate component of equity.
On disposal of a foreign entity, the deferred cumulative amount recognised in equity relating to that particular
foreign operation is recognised in the profit & loss.
(d) Revenue recognition
Revenues are recognised at fair value of the consideration received net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST)
payable to the taxation authority. Exchange of goods or services of the same nature without any cash consideration
are not recognised as revenue.
Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon delivery of goods to customers as this corresponds to the transfer
of significant risks and benefits of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.
Interest income
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
(e) Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold in the ordinary course of business.
Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current
assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.
Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment.
(f) Acquisition of assets
All assets acquired including plant and equipment and intangibles other than goodwill are initially recorded at their
cost of acquisition at the date of acquisition, being the fair value of the consideration provided plus incidental costs
directly attributable to the acquisition.
When equity instruments are issued as consideration, their market price at the date of acquisition is used as fair value.
Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity subject to the extent of
proceeds received, otherwise expensed.

(g) Business Combination
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business
combination is measured at fair value which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of assets
transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners of the acquire and the equity
instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in
profit or loss as incurred.
At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value,
except that:
• deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognised
and measured in accordance with AASB 112 ‘Income Taxes’ and AASB 119 ‘Employee Benefits’ respectively;
liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share-based
payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquire
are measured in accordance with AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’ at the acquisition date; and
•
• assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with AASB 5 ‘Non-current Assets Held
for Sale and Discontinued Operations’ are measured in accordance with that Standard.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling
interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any)
over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after
reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed
exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the
fair value of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in
profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.
Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the
entity's net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling
interests' proportionate share of the recognised amounts of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. The choice of
measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are
measured at fair value or, when applicable, on the basis specified in another Standard.
Where the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting
from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair
value. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are
adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are
adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed
one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.
The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of contingent consideration that do not qualify as
measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent
consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement
is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or liability is remeasured at
subsequent reporting dates in accordance with AASB 139, or AASB 137 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and
Contingent Assets’, as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss.
Where a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquire is
remeasured to its acquisition date fair value and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognised in profit or loss.
Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in
other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where such treatment would be appropriate if that
interest were disposed of.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the
combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete.
Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period (see above), or additional assets or liabilities
are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition
date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date.

(h) Goodwill
Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum
of:
•
the consideration transferred;
• any non-controlling interest; and
•
over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired.
the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest;
The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date
fair value of any previously held equity interest shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial
statements.
Fair value uplifts in the value of pre-existing equity holdings are taken to the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income. Where changes in the value of such equity holdings had previously been recognised in other
comprehensive income, such amounts are recycled to profit or loss.
The amount of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the Group holds less than a 100%
interest will depend on the method adopted in measuring the non-controlling interest. The Group can elect in most
circumstances to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value (full goodwill method) or at
the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets (proportionate interest
method). In such circumstances, the Group determines which method to adopt for each acquisition and this is stated
in the respective notes to these financial statements disclosing the business combination.
Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is
included in investments in associates.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group's cash-generating units or groups of cash-
generating units, representing the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored not larger than an operating segment.
Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill related to the entity disposed
of.
Changes in the ownership interests in a subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions and do not affect the
carrying amounts of goodwill.
(i) Property, Plant and Equipment
• Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses.
Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of assets may include the
cost of materials and direct labour, and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working
condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which
they are located.
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds
from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognised net within “other
income” in profit or loss.
• Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the
item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Consolidated Entity
and its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are
recognised in the profit & loss as incurred.

N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S ( c o n t ’ d )
• Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each of property,
plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it
is reasonably certain that the Consolidated Entity will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Land is not
depreciated. Assets will be depreciated once the asset is in the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in
the manner intended by management.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
Plant and equipment
Motor vehicles
Office furniture & equipment
Building
Leasehold improvements
Moulds
3 – 10 years
4 years
5 years
20 years
5 years
5 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date.
•
Impairment
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.
For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or
cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in
use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
(j) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are
assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the
cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
(k) Payables
Payables, including goods received and services incurred but not yet invoiced, are recognised at the nominal amount
when the Consolidated Entity becomes obliged to make future payments as a result of a purchase of assets or receipt
of services.
(l) Goods and Services Tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the
amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances the GST is recognised
as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or
payable to, the tax office is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising
from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the tax office are classified as
operating cash flows.

N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S ( c o n t ’ d )
(m) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories includes expenditure
incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to
their existing location and condition.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of
completion and selling expenses.
(n) Operating Leases
Operating leases and the leased assets are not recognised on the Consolidated Entity’s statement of financial position.
Payments made under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the profit and loss.
(o) Recoverable amount of assets
At each reporting date, the Consolidated Entity assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.
Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Consolidated Entity makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount.
Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written
down to its recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an individual
asset, unless the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not
generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case, the
recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
(p) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received net of issue costs
associated with the borrowing.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or
premium on settlement.
Gains and losses are recognised in the profit & loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the
amortisation process.
(q) Share-based payment transactions
The Consolidated Entity provides benefits to employees (including Directors) of the Consolidated Entity in the form
of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares
(‘equity-settled transactions’).
The Company operates an incentive scheme to provide these benefits, known as the Vmoto Employee Share Option
Plan (the “ESOP”).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at
which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a Black Scholes Option Valuation model.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked
to the price of the shares of Vmoto Limited (“market conditions”).
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period
in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully
entitled to the award (“vesting date”).

N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S ( c o n t ’ d )
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i)
the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the Directors
of the Consolidated Entity, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at
balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of
these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon
a market condition.
Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had
not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of
the modification, as measured at the date of modification.
Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense
not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled
award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated
as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding weighted average number of options as at the reporting date is considered
not material and accordingly the basic loss per share is the same as the diluted loss per share.
(r) Investments in associates and joint ventures
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to
participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those
policies.
A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to
the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement,
which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing
control.
The results and assets and liabilities of associates or joint ventures are incorporated in these consolidated financial
statements using the equity method of accounting, except when the investment, or a portion thereof, is classified as
held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance with AASB 5. Under the equity method, an investment in
an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and
adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate
or joint venture. When the Group's share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group's interest in
that associate or joint venture (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group's net
investment in the associate or joint venture), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional
losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made
payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.
An investment in an associate or a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which the
investee becomes an associate or a joint venture. On acquisition of the investment in an associate or a joint venture,
any excess of the cost of the investment over the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and
liabilities of the investee is recognised as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment.
Any excess of the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the
investment, after reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss in the period in which the investment is
acquired.
The requirements of AASB 139 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with
respect to the Group’s investment in an associate or a joint venture. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of
the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with AASB 136 ‘Impairment of Assets’ as
a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal) with
its carrying amount, Any impairment loss recognised forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any
reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with AASB 136 to the extent that the recoverable amount
of the investment subsequently increases.

N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S ( c o n t ’ d )
The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when the investment ceases to be an associate or
a joint venture, or when the investment is classified as held for sale. When the Group retains an interest in the former
associate or joint venture and the retained interest is a financial asset, the Group measures the retained interest at fair
value at that date and the fair value is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition in accordance with AASB 139.
The difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture at the date the equity method was
discontinued, and the fair value of any retained interest and any proceeds from disposing of a part interest in the
associate or joint venture is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate or joint
venture. In addition, the Group accounts for all amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in
relation to that associate or joint venture on the same basis as would be required if that associate or joint venture had
directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss previously recognised in other
comprehensive income by that associate or joint venture would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the
related assets or liabilities, the Group reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to profit or loss (as a reclassification
adjustment) when the equity method is discontinued.
The Group continues to use the equity method when an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint
venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate. There is no re-measurement to fair
value upon such changes in ownership interests.
When the Group reduces its ownership interest in an associate or a joint venture but the Group continues to use the
equity method, the Group reclassifies to profit or loss the proportion of the gain or loss that had previously been
recognised in other comprehensive income relating to that reduction in ownership interest if that gain or loss would
be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities.
When a group entity transacts with an associate or a joint venture of the Group, profits and losses resulting from the
transactions with the associate or joint venture are recognised in the Group's consolidated financial statements only
to the extent of interests in the associate or joint venture that are not related to the Group.
(s) Available-for-sale financial assets
The Group has investments in unlisted shares that are not traded on an active market but that are classified as
available-for-sale financial assets and stated at fair value (because the directors consider that fair value can be reliably
measured). Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 1(aa). Gains and losses arising from changes in
fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the investments revaluation reserve,
with the exception of impairment losses, interest calculated using the effective interest method, and foreign exchange
gains and losses on monetary assets, which are recognised in profit or loss. Where the investment is disposed of or is
determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in the investments revaluation reserve
is reclassified to profit or loss.
The fair value of available-for-sale monetary assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign
currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. The foreign exchange gains and losses that
are recognised in profit or loss are determined based on the amortised cost of the monetary asset. Other foreign
exchange gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income.
(t) Employee benefits
Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave represent present obligations resulting from
employees’ services provided to reporting date, calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration, wage
and salary rates that the Consolidated Entity expects to pay as at reporting date including related on-costs, such as
workers compensation insurance and payroll tax.
(u) Income tax
Income tax expense recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income relates to current
tax and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items
recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively
enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for taxation purposes.
Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences:
i.
the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of
the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
ii. differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable
that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they
reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and
assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on a different
tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities
will be realised simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which the temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
The Company and its subsidiaries have unused tax losses as at the reporting date. However, no deferred tax balances
have been recognised, as it is considered that asset recognition criteria have not been met at this time.
(v)
Intangibles
Trademarks, licenses and production rights
Trademarks, licenses and production rights are recognised at cost of acquisition. They have an indefinite life and are
carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Patents
Patents acquired in a business combination and recognised separately from goodwill are initially recognised at their
fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their costs). Subsequent to initial recognition, patents acquired
in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses,
on the same basis as patents that are acquired separately.
Customer contracts
Customer contracts acquired in a business combination and recognised separately from goodwill are initially
recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their costs). Subsequent to initial
recognition, customer contracts acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated
amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as patents that are acquired separately.

(w) Development Costs
Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project is expected to
deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably. Capitalised development costs have a
finite useful life and are amortised on a systematic basis based on the future economic benefits over the useful life of
the project.
(x) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Consolidated Entity has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past
events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably
measured.
Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the
reporting period.
(y) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits available on demand with banks and other short-term
highly liquid investments with maturities of 3 months or less.
(z) Comparative figures
This Annual Report relates to the year ended 31 December 2017. Comparatives are for the year ended 31 December
2016.
(aa) Fair value of assets and liabilities
The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis,
depending on the requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard.
Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly
(ie unforced) transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing market participants at the measurement
date.
As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to
determine fair value. Adjustments to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific
asset or liability. The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using
one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable
market data.
To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or liability (ie
the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market,
the most advantageous market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (ie the market that maximises
the receipts from the sale of the asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into
account transaction costs and transport costs).
For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant's ability to use the
asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and
best use.
The fair value of liabilities and the entity's own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based payment
arrangements) may be valued, where there is no observable market price in relation to the transfer of such financial
instruments, by reference to observable market information where such instruments are held as assets. Where this
information is not available, other valuation techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the
respective note to the financial statements.

Valuation techniques
In the absence of an active market for an identical asset or liability, the Group selects and uses one or more valuation
techniques to measure the fair value of the asset or liability, The Group selects a valuation technique that is
appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value. The availability of
sufficient and relevant data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the asset or liability being measured.
The valuation techniques selected by the Group are consistent with one or more of the following valuation
approaches:
Market approach: valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated by market
transactions for identical or similar assets or liabilities.
Income approach: valuation techniques that convert estimated future cash flows or income and expenses into a single
discounted present value.
Cost approach: valuation techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset at its current service capacity.
Each valuation technique requires inputs that reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would use when pricing
the asset or liability, including assumptions about risks. When selecting a valuation technique, the Group gives
priority to those techniques that maximise the use of observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs.
Inputs that are developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual transactions) and
reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered
observable, whereas inputs for which market data is not available and therefore are developed using the best
information available about such assumptions are considered unobservable.
Fair value hierarchy
AASB 13 requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair
value measurements into one of three possible levels based on the lowest level that an input that is significant to the
measurement can be categorised into as follows:
Level 1
Measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity
can access at the measurement date.
Measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 2
Measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3
Measurements based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more
valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data.
If all significant inputs required to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If
one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3.

N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S ( c o n t ’ d )
The Group would change the categorisation within the fair value hierarchy only in the following circumstances:
(i) if a market that was previously considered active (Level 1) became inactive (Level 2 or Level 3) or vice versa; or
(ii) if significant inputs that were previously unobservable (Level 3) became observable (Level 2) or vice versa.
When a change in the categorisation occurs, the Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy
(i.e. transfers into and out of each level of the fair value hierarchy) on the date the event or change in circumstances
occurred.
(ab) Critical judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the
end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Contingent liabilities
The Company is currently a defendant in one proceeding brought against it by a former employee in relation to the
employee’s past employment. Having considered legal advice, the Directors believe that the claims can be
successfully defended, without any losses (including for costs) being incurred by the Company.
Impairment of goodwill and other indefinite intangible assets
Determining whether goodwill is impaired required an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to
which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the directors to estimate the future cash
flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value.
Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.
The carrying amount of goodwill at 31 December 2017 was nil (31 December 2016: nil).
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and trademarks
The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and patents at the end of each
reporting period. During the current year, the directors determined that the useful lives of property, plant and
equipment and trademarks are deemed to be no change.
Fair value measurements and valuation processes in relation to business combination acquisition
As part of business combination, assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for reporting purposes. The Directors
have determined the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for fair value measurements.
In estimating the fair value of plant and equipments, the Group uses Level 3 inputs to perform the valuation.
In estimating the fair value of customer base, the Group uses Level 3 inputs to perform the valuation.
Fair value measurements and valuation processes in relation to investments available-for-sale
In estimating the fair value of the available-for-sale investments, the Group uses Level 3 fair value hierarchy to
perform the valuation.

(i) The Consolidated Entity holds 15% of the ordinary share capital of Jiangsu Kaiyang, a company focused on
designing, manufacturing and distributing three-wheel and four-wheel electric vehicles. The Directors of the
Company do not consider that the Consolidated Entity is able to exercise significant influence over Jiangsu
Kaiyang as the other 85% of the ordinary share capital is held by other shareholders, who also manage the
day-to-day operations of that company. Jiangsu Kaiyang continued to incur losses in the year ended 31
December 2017 and has ceased its operations. The Company has recognised a provision for impairment loss
of $239,674 on its interest in Jiangsu Kaiyang and included this in the profit and loss statement.

AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group
that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and
to assess their performance.
The continuing operations of the Consolidated Entity are predominantly in the electric two-wheel vehicles
manufacture and distribution industry.
Reported segments were based on the geographical segments of the Consolidated Entity, being Australia and China.
The management accounts and forecasts submitted to the chief operating decision maker for the purpose of resource
allocation and assessment of segment performance are split into these components.
The electric two-wheel vehicles segment is managed on a worldwide basis, but operates in two principal geographical
areas: Australia and China. In China, manufacturing facilities are operated in Nanjing. The Shanghai operation was
discontinued in the current year. The segment information reported does not include any amounts for the
discontinued operations, which are described in more detail in Note 27. The following table presents revenue and
profit or loss in relation to geographical segments for the twelve month periods ended 31 December 2017 and 31
December 2016:

The main risks arising from the Consolidated Entity’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk, foreign
currency risk and credit risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are
summarised below.
Sensitivity analysis
In managing interest rate and currency risks, the Company endeavours to reduce the impact of short-term fluctuations
on the Company’s earnings. Over the longer term, however, permanent changes in foreign exchange and interest rates
will have an impact on consolidated earnings, although the extent of that impact will depend on the level of cash
resources held by the Consolidated Entity. A general increase of one percentage point in interest rates would not be
expected to materially impact earnings.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (cont’d)
Interest rate risk
The Consolidated Entity’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Consolidated
Entity’s short term debt obligations.
Cash includes funds held in term deposits and cheque accounts during the year, which earned interest at rates ranging
between 0% and 2.1%, depending on account balances.
The following annual interest rates apply to the Consolidated Entity’s credit facilities:
Bank operating facility
5.08% variable
All other financial assets and liabilities are non-interest bearing.
At balance date, the Consolidated Entity had the following mix of financial assets and liabilities exposed to variable
interest rate risk that are not designated in cash flow hedges:

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the reporting date.
At 31 December, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant,
pre-tax profit and equity would have been affected as follows:

Credit risk
The credit risk on financial assets of the Consolidated Entity which have been recognised on the statement of financial
position is generally the carrying amount, net of any provision for impairment losses.
The Consolidated Entity continuously monitors credit risks arising from its trade receivables which are principally
with significant and reputable companies. It is the Consolidated Entity’s policy that credit verification procedures,
including assessment of credit ratings, financial position, past experience and industry reputation, are performed on
new customers that request credit terms. Risk limits are set for each customer and regularly monitored. Receivable
balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Consolidated Entity’s exposure to bad debts is not
significant.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (cont’d)
The total credit risk exposure of the Consolidated Entity could be considered to include the difference between the
carrying amount of the receivable and the realisable amount. At balance sheet date there were no significant
concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each
financial asset in the balance sheet. Details with respect to credit risk of trade and other receivables are provided in
Note 6.
Liquidity risk
preparing forward-looking cash flow analyses in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities;
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Consolidated Entity might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or
otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The Consolidated Entity manages this risk through the
following mechanisms:

27. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On 27 November 2017, the Company entered into a sale agreement to dispose 51% interest of Shanghai Jiye , which
focuses on the Chinese electric two-wheel vehicle market. The proceeds of sale was less than the carrying amount of
the related net assets and accordingly, impairment losses were recognised on the reclassification of these operations as
discontinued operations. The disposal of the interest in Shanghai Jiye operations is in line with the Company’s strict
investment return criteria. While the strategic rationale for the original acquisition was sound, the Shanghai Jiye
operations did not deliver the return expected and is facing increasing business risks and stricter government
regulations in the Chinese electric two-wheel vehicle market. The disposal was completed on 30 November 2017, on
which date control of the Shanghai Jiye operations passed to acquirer. Details of assets and liabilities disposed of, and
the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal, are disclosed in Note 28.
The combined results of the discontinued operation (that is Shanghai Jiye operations) included in the profit for the year
are set out below. The comparative profit and cash flows from discontinued operations have been re-presented to

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those
standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit
engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. 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 (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.
Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of Vmoto Limited (Continued)
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit
of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the
financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on
these matters.
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Impairment assessment of Cash Generating Unit inclusive of intangible assets
As disclosed in note 10 of the consolidated financial
statements, the Group has trademark of $595,533
after impairment charges of $1,218,585 were made
against the carrying value of the trademarks held,
which was previously included within the Shanghai
Jiye Cash Generating Unit (CGU)
Impairment is considered to be a key audit matter
due to the significance of the assets to the Group’s
consolidated financial position, the Group’s current
year’s performance and due to the judgement
involved in determining the key assumptions used in
the recoverable amount.
An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by
which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its
recoverable amount.
Accounting for Discontinued Operations
During the year Vmoto disposed of its 51% interest
in Shanghai Jiye Electric Vehicle Co, Ltd for
$415,487.
As disclosed in note 27 to the financial statements,
the Company has presented Shanghai Jiye as a
discontinued operations in the statement of profit or
loss and other comprehensive income. The result of
the discontinued operations amounts to $1,751,610
for 31 December 2017. This included $1,520,578 on
the loss on disposal and $231,032 loss from
operations until the date of disposal.
Discontinued operation is considered to be a key
audit matter due to the size of the operations
disposed of and the judgement involved in
determining the financial results of the operations.
Our procedures amongst others included:
Intangible Assets - Trademarks
Obtaining an understanding of the value in use
model and assumptions used, including
expected cash flows based on contractual
arrangements in place, expected useful life of
the intangibles and discount rate applied.
Critically evaluating management methodologies
and their documented basis for key assumptions
utilised in the valuation model described in note
10;
We checked the mathematical accuracy of the
cash flow models and assessed the historical
accuracy of forecasting by the Group; and
We assessed the appropriateness of the
disclosures included in Note 10 to the financial
report.
Our procedures amongst others included:
Evaluation of management’s assumptions
applied as discontinued operation by reviewing
of minutes and other relevant documentation of
the discontinue operations;
Review of the sales agreement and calculation
of loss on disposal of the entity.
Assessment of the reallocation of costs
associated with discontinued operations; and
Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures
included in Note 27 to the financial statements.
Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of Vmoto Limited (Continued)
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Existence and recoverability of Other Assets
Included within other assets are prepayments of
$3,119,683. During the period the company
provided for $1,835,755 due to concerns over
recoverability and utilization of the prepayments.
Prepayments predominately relate to payments
made by Vmoto in advance to suppliers for the
purchase of raw materials and stock items.
Existence and recoverability were considered key
audit matters due to:
The quantum of prepayments;
The aging of prepayments;
Change in strategic direction of the company;
Risk of suppliers not fulfilling orders made or
utilization by Vmoto.
Existence and recoverability of Inventory
Our procedures amongst others included:
Reviewing aged prepayments listing and
investigating old and/or material balances;
On a sample basis, agreeing the outstanding
balances to supplier’s confirmation;
Testing of the aging report to confirm the
accuracy of the report; and
Assessing the recoverability of the prepayments,
including discussions with management; and
Assessing the utilization of prepayments
subsequent to the year end.
The Group’s core operations are located in China,
(Nanjing). At year end, the Consolidated Entity had
$2,780,782 of inventory on hand.
Our procedures amongst others included:
Attending stock takes conducted at year end and
performing sample counts;
Existence and valuation of inventory were
considered key audit matters due to:
The quantum of inventory on hand
The location of the inventory
Risk of stock obsolescence from changing
technology
The importance of inventory in relation to
generating positive operating cashflows.
Observing for damaged or obsolete stock on
hand whilst on site;
Reviewing gross margins on inventory sales
during the year on a monthly basis;
Reviewing unit cost of inventory items and
related sales of that item to supporting
documentation on a sample basis to assess
assumption of inventory being held at the lower
of cost or net realisable value;
Review of inventory line items on a sample basis
to identify slow moving or obsolete stock items
on hand; and
Reviewing margins and inventory turnover via
analytical procedures.
Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of Vmoto Limited (Continued)
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2017, but does not include the financial
report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in
doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and
fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such
internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that
gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the
directors also state in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial
Statements, that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. 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 judgement
and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or
error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of Vmoto Limited (Continued)
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, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance
in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe
these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or
when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report
because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest
benefits of such communication.
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the directors’ report for the year ended 31 December
2017. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the remuneration
report in accordance with s 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
the remuneration report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of Vmoto Limited (Continued)
Auditor’s Opinion
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Vmoto Limited, for the year ended 31 December 2017, complies
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
