Particulars of each director’s experience and qualifications are set out later in this report. 

Principal activities 

During the financial year, the Group’s primary activity was writing personal loans for 3, 5 and 7 year maturities to Australian 
consumers, then on-selling these loans to retail, wholesale and institutional investors. 

Review of operations 

Key Group highlights include: 

Loan origination volume up 281% to $68.90m (FY18 $18.10m) 

-  Operating revenue up 91%, to $3.04m (FY18 $1.59m) 
- 
-  Marketing expense down 4%, to $1.46m (FY18 $1.52m) 
-  The Group is well capitalised with $16.77m net assets (FY18 $4.66m) including $11.99m cash as at 30 June 2019 

(FY18 $1.55m) 

-  Raised $15m, net of costs, in an oversubscribed equity raise in H2FY19 
- 

Launched Wisr App to promote more financial wellness and encourage debt reduction for Australians, with over 
25,000 downloads in its first few months 
Launched WisrCredit, the country’s only credit score comparison service with over 32,000 Australians comparing 
their scores as at 30 June 2019 

- 

-  Significantly extended the reach and potential of the Wisr Financial Wellness Ecosystem (“Wisr Ecosystem”) 

through the launch of Wisr@Work and Wisr&Co B2B2C partnership models 

-  Strategic partnership announcements including Smartgroup, HCF and an industry super fund 
-  Progress towards evolving Wisr debt funding facilities with multiple parties  

Scaling efficiently 

Wisr continued the efficient scaling of its core personal loans business, delivering 281% loan volume growth and 91% 
revenue growth despite reducing marketing spend by 4%. This demonstrates the value of Wisr’s purpose-led unique 
ecosystem, which allows the Group to scale efficiently, whilst maintaining consistently strong credit quality. 

Wisr underwriting performance 

The Wisr credit engine continues to deliver consistent, but safe growth of the loan book in line with management 
expectations. 

Wisr continued its balance of long-term sustainable book growth delivered by market leading unit economics, operating 
excellence and conservative loss rates. The Group’s strategy not to maximise loan book growth for short term volume at 
the expense of unit economics is evident. 

The Group recognises the opportunity is significant in the Australian market but maintains the strategy that wins over the 
medium to long term is the most important and is focused on building the strongest platform foundation in the market for 
long term sustainable, profitable success.

Review of operations (cont.) 

Wisr Financial Wellness Ecosystem 

In FY19 Wisr delivered the preliminary rollout of the Wisr Ecosystem, acquiring over 60,000 Australians to 30 June 2019 
into its channels. The Wisr Ecosystem includes the launch of a number of individually powerful, and collectively unique 
products aligned to financial wellness: 

-  Australia’s only credit score comparison site, WisrCredit, attracted over 32,000 users since launching in Q2FY19, 

the majority of whom are amongst the most creditworthy in Australia. 

-  Debt reduction tool Wisr App, launched in Q3FY19, garnered over 25,000 downloads in the first months of launch. 
The app rounds up everyday transactions to help pay down extra debt, specifically targeting high-interest credit 
card debt. 

-  Workplace financial wellness program Wisr@Work launched with Smartgroup (ASX:SIQ) as a founding partner. 

The program addresses the number one cause of stress in the workplace, stress related to personal finances, and 
will be rolled out more broadly in the coming year. 

Revenue  

The Group increased operating revenue by 91% during the year to $3.04m from $1.59m in FY18. Revenue is 
predominantly derived from loan establishment fees and management fees from servicing loans sold to third parties. The 
growth in revenue was driven by the 281% increase in loan volume during the year to $68.90m from $18.10m in FY18. The 
FY18 revenue figure included interest revenue from loans held on balance sheet prior to the commencement of wholesale 
funding in October 2017 which inflates the FY18 revenue figure relative to FY19. 

Expenses  

Employee expenses, the majority line item for Wisr, increased 32% to $5.02m in FY19 from $3.80m in FY18 driven by an 
increase in headcount from circa 33 to 52. A significant portion of growth in headcount has been driven by the build and 
rollout of the Wisr Ecosystem, as the Group invests in building assets of long-term strategic value. 

Marketing expense decreased 4% to $1.46m in FY19 from $1.52m in FY18 which highlights the continued effective scaling 
of the business. Loan originations increased 281% during the same period. A material portion of the marketing spend was 
also related to the rollout of the Wisr Ecosystem products as opposed to pure loan origination. 

Customer  processing  costs  of  $1.17m  are  now  being  separately  disclosed  given  their  materiality  (FY18  $0.21m).  These 
relate to the processing of loans, but a significant portion relates to the onboarding of customers into the Wisr Ecosystem. 

Financial Position and Debt Funding 

The Group is well capitalised with $16.77m net assets including $11.99m cash as at 30 June 2019 following an 
oversubscribed $15m equity raise in H2FY19. The $11.99m cash excludes liquid loans held on balance sheet, $1.80m of 
which were sold and realised as cash on 2 July 2019 as part of standard business operations. 

Interest in shares 

-  Ordinary shares held: 2,773,619 

and options as at 30 

Performance rights held: 333,334 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments, adopted for the first time in FY19, requires loan receivable provisions to be calculated on an 
expected credit loss basis using a three-stage process. An expected credit loss provision of $235,646 was raised at 30 
June 2019. 

Today, Wisr utilises a predominantly capital light funding model through off balance sheet funding structures which has 
allowed the business to scale from a capital allocation perspective. That means, capital has been used to fund company 
growth and deliver on the Wisr Ecosystem strategy as opposed to supporting loan funding. This approach has been 
successful and allowed Wisr to be a true platform play in the market. 

Wisr is currently in advanced discussions with new funding partners and is pleased with the strong interest shown by major 
bank funders to provide debt capital to Wisr’s fast growing loan book. The Group’s objectives in pursuing the new funding 
opportunities are increasing debt capacity to fund our rapid growth, diversification of funding partners and therefore risk, 
improved overall margins for Wisr and improvement in specific loan unit economics.

a)  Key management personnel disclosed in this report 

The key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling 
the major activities of the Group, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Parent 
Entity.  

During the year ended 30 June 2019 and up to the date of this report, the following were classified as key management

b)  Remuneration governance 

The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices: 

- 

- 

align the interests of the CEO with those of the shareholders; and 

ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards. 

- 
- 
- 
- 
- 

competitiveness and reasonableness;  
acceptability to shareholders; 
performance linkage and alignment of executive compensation;  
transparency; and  
capital management. 

The Company has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to the 
reward strategy of the organisation. Aligning to shareholders’ interests, the framework: 

- 
- 

- 

has economic profit as a core component; 
focuses on sustained growth in shareholder wealth as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of 
value; and 
attracts and retains high calibre executives who receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of 
service and experience), superannuation, and performance incentives. 

In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and executive remuneration 
is separate and distinct. 

29

Given the growth nature of the Company, the lack of profit and other key financial variables as shown in the table below, 

salary and the award of Performance Rights are made on the basis of each individual’s contribution to their specific role in 

the Company to date and their expected importance to the future of the Company. Performance Rights were deemed to 

provide an appropriate performance incentive for each individual as applicable.

Directors’ report 

For the year ended 30 June 2019 

Remuneration report (cont.) 

-  Mr A Goodwin 

Subject to the achievement of agreed KPI targets, a share based long-term incentive to a maximum value of 

$220,000 for each of the financial years to 30 June 2019 may be awarded to Mr Goodwin in the next financial 

year. An amount of $229,918 has been accrued in respect of this incentive in FY2019. 

Other short-term and long-term incentives established in the year for the above KMPs are set out in Note 23 of the 

financial report. 

Performance conditions set for KMP short-term and long-term incentives (as discussed above and in Note 23 of the 

financial report) align the KMP interests with the outcomes for shareholders, customers, and staff. The achievement of 

these performance conditions support the growth of company value whilst providing KMPs with remuneration packages 

that are above market rates relative to peer roles. Conversely, an underperformance of goals expose KMPs to a level of 

financial risk where their remuneration packages become well below market rates.

The total fair value of above rights at grant date issued to key management personnel is $7,239. The value of rights granted 

during the period differs to the expense recognised as part of each key management person’s remuneration in table d) above 

because this value is the grant date fair value calculated in accordance with AASB 2 Share Based Payment. 

This concludes the remuneration report, which has been audited.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 

The Group has adopted AASB 9 from 1 July 2018. The standard introduced 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 that 

are solely principal and interest. A debt investment shall be measured at fair value through other comprehensive 

income if it is held within a business model whose objective is to both hold assets in order to collect contractual cash 

flows which arise on specified dates that are solely principal and interest as well as selling the asset on the basis of 

its fair value. All other financial assets are 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 or contingent consideration recognised in a business combination) in other comprehensive income 

('OCI').  Despite  these  requirements,  a  financial  asset  may  be  irrevocably  designated  as  measured  at  fair  value 

through profit or loss to reduce the effect of, or eliminate, an accounting mismatch. For financial liabilities designated 

at fair value through profit or loss, 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.

b. Principles of consolidation 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments (cont.) 
New impairment requirements use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognise an allowance. Impairment is 
measured using 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. If stage 3 ECL is recognised for an asset, 
the interest income is recognised on the loan balance net of impairment. For receivables, a simplified approach to 
measuring expected credit losses using a lifetime expected loss allowance is available. 
The impact on the financial performance and position of the Group from the adoption of this Accounting Standards 
is detailed in Note 6.  

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
The  Group  has  adopted  AASB  15  from  1  July  2018.  The  standard  provides  a  single  comprehensive  model  for 
revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity shall recognise revenue to depict the transfer 
of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects 
to  be  entitled  in  exchange  for  those  goods  or  services.  The  standard  introduced  a  new  contract-based  revenue 
recognition  model  with  a  measurement  approach  that  is  based  on  an  allocation  of  the  transaction  price.  This  is 
described further in the accounting policies below. Credit risk is presented separately as an expense rather than 
adjusted against revenue. Contracts with customers are 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. Customer acquisition costs and costs to fulfil a contract can, subject to certain criteria, 
be capitalised as an asset and amortised over the contract period. 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of the Company and all subsidiaries as at 30 June 

2019, and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. 

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, 

generally accompanying a shareholding of 100% of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that 

are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity. 

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de consolidated from 

the date that control ceases. 

Intercompany  transactions,  balances  and  unrealised  gains  on  transactions  between  Group  companies  are  eliminated.  

Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. 

Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by 

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the individual financial statements of the Company, less any

c. Foreign currency transactions and balances  

The impact on the financial performance and position of the consolidated entity from the adoption of this Accounting 
Standards is detailed in Note 2.  

Functional and presentation currency 

iii)  New accounting standards for application in future periods 

Discussed below are certain new accounting standards and interpretations which have been published but are not 
mandatory for the 30 June 2019 reporting period and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group has not 
yet fully assessed the potential impact of these new accounting standards and interpretations. 

AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019) 
When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to leases in AASB 117: 
Leases  and  related  Interpretations.  AASB  16  introduces  a  single  lessee  accounting  model  that  eliminates  the 
requirement for leases to be classified as operating or finance leases. 

d. Impairment of assets 

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary 

economic  environment  in  which  the  entity  operates  (the  functional  currency).  The  consolidated  financial  statements  are 

presented in Australian dollars, which is Wisr Limited’s functional and presentation currency. 

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of 

the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the 

translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised 

through profit or loss, except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges. 

The main changes introduced by the new Standard include: 
- 

- 

- 

- 

recognition of a right-to-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short-term leases with less than 12 months 
of tenure and leases relating to low-value assets); 
depreciation of right-to-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in profit or loss and 
unwinding of the liability in principal and interest components;  
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are included in the initial measurement of the lease 
liability using the index or rate at the commencement date; 
by  applying  a  practical  expedient,  a  lessee  is  permitted  to  elect  not  to  separate  non-lease  components  and 
instead account for all components as a lease; and 
additional disclosure requirements. 

- 
The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lessee to either retrospectively apply the Standard to comparatives 
in line with AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect of retrospective application as an adjustment to opening 
equity on the date of initial application. 
The  directors  anticipate  that  the  adoption  of  AASB  16  will  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the  Group’s  financial 
statements. 

Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not 

be recoverable, and as a minimum, annually. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying 

amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and 

value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately 

identifiable  cash  inflows  which  are  largely  independent  of  the  cash  inflows  from  other  assets  or  groups  of  assets  (cash-

generating units). Non-financial assets, other than goodwill, that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal 

of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.  

e. Investments and other financial assets 

Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial 

measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently measured at 

either amortised cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on both the business 

model  within  which  such  assets  are  held  and  the  contractual  cash  flow  characteristics  of  the  financial  asset  unless,  an 

accounting mismatch is being avoided. 

Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred and the 

Group  has  transferred  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership.  When  there  is  no  reasonable  expectation  of 

recovering part or all of a financial asset, it's carrying value is written off.

h. Fair value measurements (cont.) 

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

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

Impairment of financial assets 
The consolidated entity recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured 
at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon 
the consolidated entity's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk 
has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without 
undue cost or effort to obtain. 

Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit 
loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a 
default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is 
determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit 
losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of 
anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.

recognition: 

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

f. Goods and services tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not 
recoverable  from  the  Australian  Taxation  Office.  In  these  circumstances  the  GST  is  recognised  as  part  of  the  cost  of 
acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position 
are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with 
other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. 

g. Critical accounting estimates and judgments 

The Directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge 
and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current 
trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group. 

Allowance for expected credit losses 
The allowance for expected credit losses assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. It is based on the 
lifetime expected credit loss, grouped based on days overdue, and makes assumptions to allocate an overall expected 
credit loss rate for each group. These assumptions include historical collection rates along with a macroeconomic overlay. 

h. Fair value measurements 

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. 

following valuation approaches:  

45

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 

The  Group  measures  and  recognises  the  following  assets  and  liabilities  at  fair  value  on  a  recurring  basis  after  initial 

-  Financial assets at fair value through profit & loss (investment) 

-  Financial assets at FV through OCI (loan receivables) 

The Group does not subsequently measure any liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. 

(a) Fair Value Hierarchy 

AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement 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

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. 

Valuation techniques 

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

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s ability to use the asset in

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

The  Group  measures  and  recognises  the  following  assets  and  liabilities  at  fair  value  on  a  recurring  basis  after  initial 
recognition: 

-  Financial assets at fair value through profit & loss (investment) 
-  Financial assets at FV through OCI (loan receivables) 

The Group does not subsequently measure any liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation

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 hat 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.

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the entity and the revenue can 

be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: 

Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating 

the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective 

interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the 

financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. 

Loan establishment fees are deferred and recognised as an adjustment to the effective interest rate as these fees 

are an integral part of generating an involvement with the resulting financial instrument. 

Government grants revenue is recognised at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be 

received and the grant conditions will be met.

Revenue from contracts with customers 

Management fees 

Management fees are earned through the contracts with funders (customers) which entitle the consolidated entity to 

fees  as  a  result  of  satisfying  the  performance  obligation,  being  the  monthly  management  of  the  associated  loan 

portfolio. Revenue is recognised on an over-time basis. The allocation of the transaction price is calculated as a 

percentage of the loan balance managed by the consolidated entity on a monthly basis, being the satisfaction of the 

performance obligation.  

Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the consolidated entity is expected to 

be entitled in exchange for transferring services to a customer.  

The consolidated entity invoice on a monthly basis which aligns to the recognition criteria noted above and as a 

result, there is no recognition of contract assets or liabilities required.

measured at amortised cost. 

Loan receivables of $4,044,128 (2018: $863,971) are classified as financial assets subsequently measured at fair value 

Loan receivables comprise of personal loans between $5,000 to $50,000 using risk-based pricing with interest rates 

starting from 8.50% to 19.95%. The personal loans are repayable within the range of 3 to 7 years. 

The fair value of the loan receivables is considered to approximate the carrying value. 

Initial adoption of AASB 9 Financial Instruments 

The Company has adopted AASB 9 from 1 July 2018. Although the Company ran an off-balance sheet loan funding model 

during FY2019, there are still some loan receivables retained on balance sheet, as noted above. These are measured at 

amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Management estimate 
For Stage 1 and 2, the Company analysed historical data on an arrears bucket basis in order to calculate the 12 month and 
lifetime expected credit losses. Time value of money and an economic overlay were also considered as part of the 
assessment. An economic overlay refers to the recognition of forward looking information to the extent it is considered to 
affect the expected credit losses of the loan receivables balance.

All property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and are depreciated over their useful lives on a straight-line 

basis.  Depreciation  commences  from  the  time  the  asset  is  available  for  its  intended  use.  Leasehold  improvements  are 

depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.  

The impact of adopting AASB 9 was assessed as having no material impact on the prior year. As a result, no changes 
have been made to the comparatives. 

The useful lives used for each class of depreciable assets are as follows:

Trade  receivables  are  initially  recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 
interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 
days. 

The  consolidated  entity  has  applied  the  simplified  approach  to  measuring  expected  credit  losses,  which  uses  a  lifetime 
expected  loss  allowance.  To  measure  the  expected  credit  losses,  trade  receivables  have  been  grouped  based  on  days 
overdue. 

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses. 

Fair value estimation 

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure 
purposes. Unless otherwise disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, the carrying amount of the Group’s financial 
instruments approximates their fair value.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable 

amount. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the 

asset’s  employment  and  subsequent  disposal.  The  expected  net  cash  flows  have  not  been  discounted  in  determining

Note 9. Property, plant and equipment 

For Stage 1 and 2, the Company analysed historical data on an arrears bucket basis in order to calculate the 12 month and 

lifetime expected credit losses. Time value of money and an economic overlay were also considered as part of the 

assessment. An economic overlay refers to the recognition of forward looking information to the extent it is considered to 

affect the expected credit losses of the loan receivables balance.

The impact of adopting AASB 9 was assessed as having no material impact on the prior year. As a result, no changes 

The useful lives used for each class of depreciable assets are as follows: 

All property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and are depreciated over their useful lives on a straight-line 
basis.  Depreciation  commences  from  the  time  the  asset  is  available  for  its  intended  use.  Leasehold  improvements  are 
depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.  

Trade  receivables  are  initially  recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 

interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 

The  consolidated  entity  has  applied  the  simplified  approach  to  measuring  expected  credit  losses,  which  uses  a  lifetime 

expected  loss  allowance.  To  measure  the  expected  credit  losses,  trade  receivables  have  been  grouped  based  on  days

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable 
amount. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the 
asset’s  employment  and  subsequent  disposal.  The  expected  net  cash  flows  have  not  been  discounted  in  determining 
recoverable amounts. 

In the prior years, the Group invested $518,000 into the DirectMoney Personal Loan Fund. The DirectMoney Personal Loan 
Fund is a registered managed investment scheme where investors’ money is pooled and invested into unsecured personal 
loans acquired from Wisr Finance Pty Ltd. The investment is classified as fair value through profit or loss in accordance with

Technology assets are recognised at cost of acquisition. They have a finite life and are carried at cost less any 
accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Technology assets are amortised over their useful lives ranging from 
2 to 5 years on a straight-line basis. 

Development costs are charged to the statement of profit of loss and other comprehensive income as incurred, or deferred 
where it is probable that sufficient future benefits will be derived so as to recover those deferred costs. 

Secured note 

Note 14. Interest bearing liabilities 

The recoverable amount of the group’s intangible assets have been tested for impairment via a value-in-use calculation 
using a discounted cash flow model, based on discounted projected cashflows derived by the cash generating unit over the 
useful life of the assets. The cash generating unit was identified as being related to the operating cashflows earned via the 
Wisr App, being derived via account maintenance fees and loan referral income and is related to the intangible assets 
noted above.

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are 
unpaid.  The  amounts  are  unsecured  and  are  usually  paid  within  30  days  of  recognition.  Trade  and  other  payables  are 
presented as current liabilities. The fair value of the trade and other payables is considered to approximate their carrying 
value. 

Note 15. Issued capital 

(a)  Issued and paid up capital

Costs of raising capital  

Provision is made for the Group’s obligation for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end 

of the reporting period. Short term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits and equity compensation 

benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the 

employees  render  the  related  service,  including  wages,  salaries  and  personal  leave.  Short  term  employee  benefits  are 

measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled, plus any related costs.  

In September 2018, the Group originated a $2,000,000 secured note from sophisticated investors. The note is used for 

working capital purposes through initial funding of personal loans prior to them being sold to funding partners as part of 

normal business operations. The note had a 12 month term, $1,775,000 of which was refinanced in September 2019. The 

secured note is initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. The note is 

subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

Convertible note 

As at 30 June 2018, Wisr Marketplace Limited had $373,000 of convertibles notes on issue that were secured against 

identified loans within Wisr Marketplace Limited’s balance sheet. The carrying value of the loans pledged as security as of 

30 June 2018 was $286,274. The holders had recourse to these loans and a distribution of interest based on the gross 

return of the loans less a 4% loss reserve and 1.5% servicing fee.  

These notes were in a rundown phase where holders received periodic repayments of principal on the note based on the 

total principal repayments received from the loans secured against the note.  

In April 2019, the convertible notes were redeemed in full which included a repurchase of the loans pledged as security.

Ordinary shares participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up the Company. At shareholder meetings, each 

ordinary share is entitled to one vote when a poll is called. Otherwise, each shareholder has one vote on show of hands. 

Ordinary  shares  are  classified  as  equity  and  recognised  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  by  the  Group. 

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are expensed as incurred.

Non-cancellable operating leases contracted for but not recognised in the financial statements. 

Payable – minimum lease payments: 

i)  Within one year 

ii)  One to five years 

iii)  More than five years 

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are recognised 

as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred on a straight line basis. 

Wisr Finance Pty Ltd has a non-cancellable property lease which was varied in June 2019 to a 39-month term which 

commenced on 1 March 2017, with rent payable monthly in advance. Contingent rental provisions within the lease 

agreement require that the minimum lease payments shall be increased from and including each anniversary of the 

commencing date of the term by 4%. 

As detailed at note 1 a) the group does not anticipate a material impact of adoption of AASB 16 – Leases as a result of the 

current lease having a term of less than 12 months.

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are recognised 
as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred on a straight line basis. 

Wisr Finance Pty Ltd has a non-cancellable property lease which was varied in June 2019 to a 39-month term which 
commenced on 1 March 2017, with rent payable monthly in advance. Contingent rental provisions within the lease 
agreement require that the minimum lease payments shall be increased from and including each anniversary of the 
commencing date of the term by 4%. 

As detailed at note 1 a) the group does not anticipate a material impact of adoption of AASB 16 – Leases as a result of the 
current lease having a term of less than 12 months.

As at 30 June 2019, the entity has unrecognised carried forward tax losses of $34,016,142 (2018: $26,659,295), the 
utilisation of which is dependent on the entity satisfying the requirements of the Same Business Test (SBT). 

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable / refundable on the current period's taxable income based 
on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, attributable to 
temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, 
and to unused tax losses. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets 
are  recovered  or  liabilities  are  settled,  based  on  those  tax  rates  which  are  enacted  or  substantively  enacted  for  each 
jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to 
measure the deferred tax asset or liability. 

An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred 
tax  asset  or  liability  is  recognised  in  relation  to  these  temporary  differences  if  they  arose  in  a  transaction,  other  than  a 
business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss. 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases 
of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary 
differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities 
and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset 
where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and 
settle the liability simultaneously. 

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. 

Wisr Limited and its wholly owned controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation as of 1 January 
2004. 

following 30 June 2019; and 

The head entity, Wisr Limited, and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own 
current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues 
to be a standalone taxpayer in its own right. 

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Wisr Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) 
and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the 
tax consolidated group.

Basic earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the result attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted 
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year. 

Diluted earnings per share 

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

During the year, the Group awarded its staff an offer to participate in the Group’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) in the 

form of performance rights and link to KPIs for FY2019. From an accounting perspective, these performance rights have 

been granted. There are also future share price hurdles for granted performance rights to vest.  

The total fair value of these performance rights at grant date is $198,362 of which $36,242 has been recognised as a share-

Notes to the Financial Statements. 

Note 31. Financial risk management 

The business of the Group and the industry in which it operates are subject to risk factors both of a general nature and risks 

which are specific to the industry and/or the Group’s business activities. 

The  potential  effect  of  these  risk  factors  either  individually,  or  in  combination,  may  have  an  adverse  effect  on  the  future 

financial and operating performance of the Group, its financial position, its prospects and the value of its shares. 

The following are the key risks that specifically relate to the Group: 

The Group has also recognised a performance rights expense of $89,057 (2018: $83,683) for performance rights under 
the Group’s LTIP awarded in FY2018 in accordance with AASB 2. The total fair value of these performance rights at grant 
date is $219,406. 

(i)  Credit risk 

The Group has also recognised a performance rights expense of $1,484 (2018: $19,827) for performance rights granted 
in  prior  financial  years  in  accordance  with  AASB  2.  The  total  fair  value  of  those  performance  rights  at  grant  date  is 
$1,047,580.  

As a lending business, the Group is at risk of a larger than expected number of its borrowers failing or becoming 

unable to repay their loans, particularly for loans which are held on balance sheet as opposed to being funded by a 

third party. While loans are assessed according to a strict Credit Manual and Credit Risk Policy as well as being 

targeted at prime retail borrowers (not ‘payday’ lending customers), the loans may be unsecured and so are subject 

to the capacity of the individual borrower to repay the loan. 

The Group granted 4,405,286 performance rights to key management personnel as share-based payments during the year 
(2018: nil rights granted).  

All loan balances are monitored on an ongoing basis for collectability and AASB 9 – Financial Instruments has 

been adopted in FY2019 which includes the assessment of lifetime expected credit losses as detailed at note 6. 

The Group provides benefits to employees in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render 
services in exchange for shares or performance rights (equity-settled transactions). 

(ii)  Inability to recover defaulted loans 

The  cost  of  the  transactions  with  employees  is  measured  by  reference  to  the  fair  value  at  the  date  at  which  they  are 
granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using a binomial 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 the Company 
(market conditions). The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised as an expense, 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 exercise the rights (vesting date). 

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  rights  that,  in  the  opinion  of  the  Directors  of  the 
Company,  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. Where the terms of an equity-settled option are modified, at 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 the modification. 

Default is defined by the group as the failure of the borrower to meet required contractual cashflows, this definition 

is selected as it aligns with the operational analysis of the loan books. If a borrower does not meet their required loan 

payments and the loan goes into default, the Group may not be able to recover the relevant portion of the value of 

the loan or the cost of recovery of the loan may be deemed to be greater than the amount potentially recoverable, 

even if the borrower owns assets such as a house. In this case the loan may be sold (at a loss) to a third party or 

written off as a bad debt. High levels of bad debts could limit profitability and adversely affect future performance. 

The Group mitigates this risk by approving loans according to a strict credit criteria. The risk is also mitigated through 

the use of third party funders for a proportion of loans.   

(iii)  Fraudulent borrowers 

There is a general ongoing risk that borrowers may deliberately fabricate evidence to support loan applications and 

they have no intention of paying off their loan. The Group has procedures in place to detect fraudulent applications 

and activities, however the risk of fraud cannot be totally removed. 

(iv)  Personal Loans may be unsecured 

The Group’s loans may be issued on an unsecured basis. The Group’s reputation and financial position could be 

adversely impacted if the Group’s targeted credit performance of its loan book is not met and collections and debt 

recovery procedures prove less than effective. 

(v)  Costs of acquiring loans 

The  Group’s  business  model  and  on-going  commercial  viability  is  directly  linked  to  its  ability  to  attract  suitable 

borrowers and increase the volume of loans funded and managed by the Group. The Group has built its existing loan 

volumes  using  a  mix  of  direct  channel  marketing  (using  search  engine  marketing  and  media  advertising)  and 

developing relationships with mortgage and finance brokers to introduce loans. The Group has forecasted the future 

costs of acquiring loans in the desired volumes however these costs are subject to market forces and cannot be 

predicted with certainty. 

(vi)  Ability to source third party funding and sell loans 

The Group’s business model and on-going commercial viability is strongly linked to its ability to source sufficient 

third-party funding to enable it to sell its loans and raise the funds to lend to potential borrowers. 

The Group seeks to manage this risk by establishing multiple sources of loan buyers. The Group seeks to on-sell 

loans  to  the  DirectMoney  Personal  Loan  Fund  (subject  to  that  fund  having  sufficient  funds  available)  and  to 

institutional loan buyers.

The business of the Group and the industry in which it operates are subject to risk factors both of a general nature and risks 
which are specific to the industry and/or the Group’s business activities. 

The  potential  effect  of  these  risk  factors  either  individually,  or  in  combination,  may  have  an  adverse  effect  on  the  future 
financial and operating performance of the Group, its financial position, its prospects and the value of its shares. 

The following are the key risks that specifically relate to the Group: 

The Group has also recognised a performance rights expense of $89,057 (2018: $83,683) for performance rights under 

the Group’s LTIP awarded in FY2018 in accordance with AASB 2. The total fair value of these performance rights at grant

(2018: nil rights granted).  

The Group has also recognised a performance rights expense of $1,484 (2018: $19,827) for performance rights granted 

in  prior  financial  years  in  accordance  with  AASB  2.  The  total  fair  value  of  those  performance  rights  at  grant  date  is 

The Group granted 4,405,286 performance rights to key management personnel as share-based payments during the year 

As a lending business, the Group is at risk of a larger than expected number of its borrowers failing or becoming 
unable to repay their loans, particularly for loans which are held on balance sheet as opposed to being funded by a 
third party. While loans are assessed according to a strict Credit Manual and Credit Risk Policy as well as being 
targeted at prime retail borrowers (not ‘payday’ lending customers), the loans may be unsecured and so are subject 
to the capacity of the individual borrower to repay the loan. 

All loan balances are monitored on an ongoing basis for collectability and AASB 9 – Financial Instruments has 
been adopted in FY2019 which includes the assessment of lifetime expected credit losses as detailed at note 6.
