While sales were down for the year, significant progress has been made in building the foundations for 
longer term sales success and future profitability.   

In 2018, the Board made a strategic decision to focus on the development of a core group of B2B potential 
customers in the key geographic regions (North America, Europe, China and India) with the capacity to 
drive sales growth for the Company through consistent (and repeated) orders for the Company's products. 

The Company also made the decision to defer all further pursuit of retail (B2C) business (other than on-
line sales).  In large part, the decision to change focus was a recognition of the fact that the Company 
simply  does  not  have  either  the  funding  necessary  to  build  a  retail  brand  or,  with  its  limited  human 
resources, the capacity to build a global retail business.   

Consistent with the above approach, the Company opened its European office (located in the UK) in 2018.  
In FY19, it has reviewed its distribution arrangements in many countries (including China) and, in recent 
months, it has opened discussions with its US distributor on revised arrangements for the marketing of 
Zoono products in North America.   

With the strategic focus on putting the building blocks into place, sales have suffered in FY19.  However, 
the Company has made good progress in implementing its strategy.  Highlights in the last quarter have 
been: 

The  entry  by  the  Company  into  a  global  distribution  agreement  with  MicroSonic  LLC  to  supply  its 
innovative antimicrobial products to Turtle Wax Inc. for the car wash, automotive and cruise industries. 

Zoono is currently in the process of registering the new Turtle Wax EPA label in all 50 US States (46 States 
completed by 19 August 2019).  This is a necessary precursor to sales to Turtle Wax commencing in the 
US. 

Zoono also entered a sales and distribution with The  Z Factor Limited for the supply  of its proprietary 
poultry formulation utilising Zoono Z71 Microbe Shield.  The Company is 4 months into the initial testing 
of the Company's poultry product  in Australia, New Zealand and Europe (with one of Europe’s  largest 
producers). 

Several new distribution agreements (in Europe, China and ASEAN) are under negotiation at the present 
time.  The Company should be in a position to provide a further update on these regions shortly. 

New markets are opening up and Zoono has also just shipped and been paid for a significant order to 
Africa (circa NZ$200k). We are processing our first order to Mexico, albeit a small order circa NZ$12k, and 
an order circa NZD$35k has recently shipped to Bosnia. 

Orders  are  expected  soon  from  new  distributors  in  Hungary,  Bosnia  and  Herzegovina,  Croatia, 
Montenegro and Serbia. 

Significant business in under negotiation in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, expect updates on these 
regions shortly. 

Online  sales  are  showing steady  growth with  a  record  month  being  recorded  recently of  NZD$35k  for 

P a g e | 1 

 
 
 
ZOONO GROUP LIMITED 

ABN 73 006 645 754 

Australia and New Zealand, with winter coming in the UK we expect a corresponding increase in sales in 
this region also. 

The customer base is growing in the UK and with the recent gaining of approvals for food contact sales 
will increase in this region over the coming months. 

Zoono also expects its agreement with Midas Pharma GmbH in Europe to start to produce revenues in 
FY20 and to build year on year. 

In  the  interim,  Zoono  has  been  actively  managing  its  overheads.    It  has  been  successful  in  materially 
reducing overall annual operating costs, which benefit will be fully realised in FY20. 

Importantly, the Company is adequately funded to execute its strategic growth plan in FY20 and beyond.  
At the end of the year, the Company had NZ$3,125,328 cash at bank, stock of NZ$503,125 and receivables 
of NZ$584,654. 

While, superficially, it may appear that implementation of the new strategy has been slow, the reality is 
that it often requires months of testing and trials (at a cost to the Company) before business customers 
will contract with the Company.  However, despite the time and cost, the Company has embarked on this 
course as it believes strongly in its strategy and that it will lead to increased sales and associated revenues 
in the future.   

Further,  the  Company  will  continue  to  invest  in  and  test  its  products  against  various  pathogens  and 
complete  trials  with  other  potential  customers  across  various  industries,  including  childcare,  facilities 
management and consumer goods globally.  Again, this is being done with the clear expectation of signing 
further  long-term  distribution  agreements  which  will  see  the  Company  become  profitable  in  the  near 
future.  

We value our shareholder base with many of you known personally or who are customers. Your board 
and management team are committed to commercialising our range of products across as many trade 
sectors as we can and working with and appointing distributor partners who have the infrastructures, 
business links and skills in each of our chosen markets. 

We would like to thank all shareholders, staff and stakeholders in our business and confirm that we are 
working hard to maximise the potential of our products.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

Your directors present their report on Zoono Group Limited (‘Company’) and its controlled entities 
(together called the ‘Group’ or the ‘consolidated entity’) for the financial year ended 30 June 2019. All 
numbers stated in this report are in New Zealand dollars, unless otherwise stated or converted at the 
exchange rates provided. 

Directors 

The names of directors in office at any time during or since the end of the year are: 

Mr. Jon Lamb 
Mr. Paul Hyslop 
Mr. Don Clarke 
Ms. Elissa Hansen 

Executive Chairman (Resigned 9 July 2019) 
Managing Director 
Non-Executive Director 
Non-Executive Director 

Directors have been in office for all of the reporting period and to the date of this report unless 
otherwise stated. 

Company Secretary 

Ms. Elissa Hansen 

Principal activities 

The principal activities of the consolidated entity during the year were to develop and sell a range of 
antimicrobial products in multiple countries. 

Operating result 

The Group recorded an after-tax loss of NZ$2,418,984 (2018: Profit NZ$79,706) for the financial year. 

Review of operation 

During the year the Company opened a UK office and warehouse in Bury St Edmunds, with several staff 
appointed  and  stock  to  the  value  of  NZ$250,000  held  at  the  UK  warehouse  to  support  sales.  The 
Company finalised the launch of its online sales platform in the UK and European markets.  

The Company’s focus this year has been to further develop its business model to include direct sales to 
end user customers and targeting increased and repeat sales at better margins from long term direct 
contracts.  

Zoono entered into a distribution agreement with Dubai-based Sky Scrapers General Trading LLC with 
exclusive rights to sell Zoono products in UAE, Oman and Lebanon. An initial deposit was received of 
US$250,000 and the first shipment of US$150,000 has already been delivered. 

The  Company  announced  that  its  Z-71  Surface  Sanitiser  passed  the  notoriously  challenging  BSI  PAS 
2424:2014  Quantitative  Surface  Test.  The  Test  evaluates  the  residual  antimicrobial  efficacy  of  liquid 
chemical disinfectants on hard non-porous surfaces. It is considered the ultimate test of a product’s 
ability to remain on a surface and maintain an antimicrobial protecting shield for 24 hours or more.  

Passing the test demonstrates the significant advantage Zoono has over other products and validates 
Zoono’s  ability  to  be  able  to  deliver  the  efficacy  results  demanded  by  multinational  companies 
worldwide. 

Zoono  entered  into  a  distribution  agreement  with  Midas  Pharma  GmbH  in  Germany  for  sales  and 
distribution in the EU and selected global markets. This is an important step forward to develop a global 
B2B business using Midas’ developed sales and distribution channels across the global pharmaceutical

and healthcare sectors. 

Global online sales continue to grow. The Company introduced two new products, Zoono Baby Wipes 
and Zoono Hand and Body Wipes to be sold online. 

The  Company  entered  into  a  distribution  agreement  with  Zoono  USA  LLC  (Zoono’s  USA  distribution 
partner), and MicroSonic LLC to supply its innovative antimicrobial products exclusively to Turtle Wax 
Inc.  for  the  car  wash  and  automotive  industries.  Minimum  MicroSonic  Zoono  Z-71  purchase 
commitments under the agreement are US$23m over a four-year period from calendar year 2020 to 
calendar year 2023, and thereby increasing 10% per annum thereafter from US$12m in calendar year 
2023. The agreement also gives MicroSonic rights to the cruise industry which includes those numbers 
mentioned. 

Zoono  entered  into  a  sales  and  distribution  agreement  with  Z  Factor  Limited  for  the  supply  of  its 
proprietary poultry formulation utilising Zoono Z-71 Microbe Shield. Z Factor and Zoono held trials with 
a  highly  reputed  poultry  broiler  farm  testing  the  effectiveness of  Z-71 Microbe  Shield  for  use  in  the 
poultry industry. The test results were outstanding and Zoono sees this as a major global opportunity in 
the B2B market. 

Since year end, the Company has entered into several new distribution agreements; in China where part 
of the payment will be used to clear an existing trade receivable; in South Africa where the first order 
has been placed; and in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Montenegro  where an initial order has 
been placed and paid for already and we expect a second order to come through in Q2. These  three 
combined agreements are contracted to deliver in excess of NZD$1m in sales in the next 12 months. 

Zoono  continues  to  negotiate  with  several  UK  distributors  for  different  vertical  markets  and  it  is 
expected to sign at least two more distribution agreements with EU countries by late 2019. 

The Company continues negotiations with new customers and distributors internationally as it builds its 
global antimicrobial protection business. 

Financial Performance 

In the 12 months to 30 June 2019, the Group experienced a decrease in revenue of NZ$652,551 (26.8% 
decrease over the FY18 year). 

Gross  Profit  achieved  was  NZ$816,693  (46.0%  of  revenue)  in  the  current  year  compared  to 
NZ$1,695,240  (69.8%  of  revenue)  in  the  previous  year.  The  decrease  in  Gross  Profit  was  due  to 
decreased revenues, moving stocks to the UK office and the mix of products sold which  negatively 
affected the margins. 

Operating costs increased by NZ$756,134 (28.9%) primarily as a result of the set-up costs for the UK 
operation. 

The  consolidated  Group  net  loss  after  tax  for  the  year  was  NZ$2,418,984  compared  to  a  profit  of 
NZ$79,706 in the previous year. 

Cash generation and capital management 

Operating cash flow was an outflow of NZ$2,881,547 in the current year and increased by NZ$844,864 
on the previous year. This was predominately due to higher operating cash flow costs for the UK office 
set-up. 

The  reduction  in  cash  received  from  distributors  and  customers  was  primarily  as  a  result  of  cash 
received from our distributors in prior years for pre-paid stock. This meant we had sales during the 
financial year for which cash was received in prior years. Our Income in advance account in the balance

sheet  as  a  result  of  these  sales  reduced  from  NZ$448,104  to  NZ$323,661  –  a  movement  of 
NZ$124,443. If we had received these distributor receipts in the current year, our operating cash flow 
would have reduced to an outflow of NZ$2,757,104 instead of an outflow of NZ$2,881,547. 

On the 18 March 2019 the Group issued 300,000 fully paid ordinary shares as part of the remuneration 
package for the Regional Manager UK/EU market. 

The  Group  ended  the  year  with  NZ$3,125,328  in  cash  reserves  compared  to  NZ$6,096,313  in  the 
previous year. 

Dividends 

No dividends were paid or declared since the start of the financial year. No recommendation for 
payment of dividends has been made. 

Significant changes in the state of affairs 

There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year. 

Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year 

Mr Jon Lamb resigned as Executive Chairman on 9 July 2019. 

Apart  from  the  above  no matters  or  circumstances have  arisen  since  the  end of the  financial year 
which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the consolidated group, the 
results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the consolidated group in future financial years. 

Likely developments, prospects and business strategies 

The consolidated entity will continue its strategy to focus on the progressive expansion of the sale and 
marketing of its product line. 

Environmental Regulations 

The Group’s operations are minimally affected by environmental regulations. 

New Accounting Standards Implemented 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
The  Group  has  adopted AASB  15  Revenue  from  Contracts  with Customers  with  an  initial  application  
date of 1 July 2018. The Group has applied AASB 15 retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially 
applying the Standard recognised in retained earnings. The cumulative effect of initially applying the 
Standard  was  Nil,  so  no  adjustments  were  required  to  net  profit  or  opening  retained  earnings  on 
transition as the timing of revenue recognition has not changed for the Group’s contracts that were in 
progress at 1 July 2018.  

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 
The Group has adopted AASB 9 Financial Instruments with an initial application date of 1 July 2018. 
The Group has applied AASB 9 retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the 
Standard recognised in retained earnings. The cumulative effect of initially applying the Standard was 
NZ$1,242 so an adjustment was required to net profit on transition.

Regulation 

tax 

laws,  environmental 

Zoono and it proposed products are subject to various laws and regulations including but not limited 
to  accounting  standards, 
requirement, 
labelling/packaging,  regulations  and  customs  regulations.  Changes  in  these  laws  and  regulations 
(including interpretation and enforcement) could adversely affect the Group financial performance. 
Laws  and  regulations  are specific  to  each  geographic  location.  In  this  regard,  there  is  a  risk  that  a 
certain product may not be able to be supplied in another jurisdiction because it fails to meet that 
jurisdictions regulatory requirements (e.g. product registration requirements). Failure of the Group to 
remain  up  to  date  with  these  various  regulatory  requirements,  could  adversely  affect  the  Group 
financial performance. 

laws,  product  content 

There were no regulatory issues that arose during the 12 months to 30 June 2019. 

Proceedings on behalf of the Group 

Qingdao Zoono Biotech Company Limited instigated legal proceedings against Zoono on 20 May 2019 
citing breach of contract under a distribution agreement entered into on 29 May 2013.  Zoono lodged a 
counter claim which stated; Qingdao breached the distribution agreement by not meeting the minimum 
annual  volumes  under  the  agreement  and  making  disparaging  comments  about  Zoono  and  its 
products.  The Group’s insurers have accepted the claim and will meet all costs arising from this action 
less any insurance excess payable. 

The Directors do not believe the outcome of the proceedings will have a material effect on the financial 
statements as Zoono’s counter claim exceeds Qingdao’s claim.  

Corporate governance 

The directors are responsible for the corporate governance practices of the Group. The main corporate 
governance  practices  that  were  in  operation  during  the  financial  year  are  set  out  in  the  Corporate 
Governance section of the Company’s website at http://zoono.com/corporate-governance/. 

Non-audit services 

The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the year is compatible with 
the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The directors 
are satisfied that the services disclosed below did not compromise the external auditor’s independence 
for the following reasons: 

•

•

all non-audit services are reviewed and approved by the full board prior to commencement to
ensure they do not adversely affect the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and

the nature of the services provided do not compromise the general principles relating to auditor

independence in accordance with APES 110: Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants set by

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) 

The Remuneration Report is set out under the following main headings: 

1. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

2. Details of remuneration

3. Services agreements

4. Share-based compensation

The information provided under headings 1 to 4 includes remuneration disclosures that are required 
under  Accounting  Standard  AASB  124  Related  Party  Disclosures.  These  disclosures  have  been 
transferred from the financial report and have been audited. 

1.

Principles Used to Determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration

The  performance  of  the  consolidated  group  depends  upon  the  quality  and  commitment  of  the 
directors and executives. The philosophy of the directors in determining remuneration levels is to: 

❖ set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees;

❖ link executive rewards to shareholder value creation; and

❖ establish appropriate demanding performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration.

Given  the  small  size  of  the  Group’s  board,  and  the  current  development  stage  of  the  Company,  a 
separate Remuneration Committee has not been established to review and make recommendations 
to the full Board on the Group’s remuneration policies, procedures and practices. As the Company 
develops, the Group may establish a Remuneration Committee to undertake this role. 

The full Board oversees the Group remuneration policies, procedures and practices and defines the 
individual packages offered to executive directors and key management personal. 

The board may consider engaging an independent remuneration consultant, to advise the board on 
appropriate levels of remuneration relative to its industry peer group. 

In accordance with Corporate Governance best practice (Recommendation 8.2), the structure of non- 
executive director and executive remuneration is separate and distinct as follows. 

a. Non-executive directors’ remuneration

Fixed Remuneration: 

The Board seeks to set non-executive directors’ remuneration at a level that provides the Group with 
the ability to attract and retain directors of a high calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to 
shareholders. 

The  ASX  Listing  Rules  specify  that  the  aggregate  remuneration  of  non-executive  directors  shall  be 
determined from time to time by a general meeting. The amount of aggregate remuneration and the 
manner in which it is apportioned amongst directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice 
from  shareholders  and  takes  into  account  the  fees  paid  to  non-executive  directors  of  comparable 
companies, when undertaking the annual review process.

b. Company executive and executive director remuneration

Fixed Remuneration: 

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the directors. The process consists of a review of relevant 
comparative remuneration in the employment market and within the Group. The Group may engage 
an independent remuneration consultant, to advise the board on appropriate levels of remuneration 
for the Group’s Executive Directors relative to its industry peer group.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Zoono Group Limited and Subsidiaries (the Group) principal activities included the research,
development and sale of a range of antimicrobial products in multiple countries.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  a  general-purpose  financial  report  that  has  been
prepared 
in  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards,  Australian  Accounting
Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards
Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Compliance with Australia Accounting Standards results
in full compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the
International  Accounting  Standards  Board  (IASB).  For  the  purposes  of  preparing  the
Consolidated Financial Statement, the Company is a for-profit entity.

Zoono Group Limited (the Company) is the Ultimate Parent Company, Zoono Group Limited is a
Public  Company  incorporated  in  Australia  and  domiciled  in  New  Zealand.  The  Company
registered address is Level 12, 225 George Street Sydney NSW 2000 Australia.

The Consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 30 June 2019
comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘Group’ or ‘Consolidated
entity’). The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 were approved
and authorised for issue by the board of Directors on 19 August 2019.

Except for cash flow information, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on
an  accrual  basis  and  are  based  on  historical  costs  modified,  where  applicable,  by  the
measurements  at  fair  value  of  selected  non-current  assets,  financial  assets  and  financial
liabilities.

Statement of Cash Flows

The statement of cash flows comprises the cash balance of Zoono Limited, Zoono Group Limited
and Zoono Holdings Limited at the beginning of the financial year, and the cash transactions of
the consolidated Group for the 12-month period.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) New and amended Standards adopted by the Group

The  Group  has considered  the  implications of  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  which 
have become applicable for the current financial reporting period as set out below:  

AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with customers 

The  Group  has  adopted  AASB  15  revenue  from  contracts  with  customers  with  an  initial 
application  date  of  01  July  2018.  The  Group  has  applied  AASB  15  retrospectively  with  the 
cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognised in opening retained earnings. The 
cumulative effect of initially applying the standard was nil, so no adjustment was required to 
net profit or opening retained earnings on transition as the timing of the revenue recognition 
has not changed for the Group’s contracts that were in progress at 1 July 2018.  

Below  is  a  summary  of  the  revenue  from  contracts  and  the  Group’s  accounting  policy  on 
recognition as a result of adopting AASB 15.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 

The Group has adopted AASB 9 Financial Instruments with an initial application date of 1 July 2018. 
The  Group  has  applied  AASB  9  retrospectively  with the  cumulative  effect  of  initially  applying the 
Standard  recognised  in  retained  earnings.  The  cumulative  effect  of  initially  applying  the 
Standard was NZ$1,242 so an adjustment was required to net profit on transition.  

(b) New Accounting Standards for application in future periods

Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the  AASB  that  are  not  yet  mandatorily 
applicable  to  the  Group,  together  with  an  assessment  of  the  potential  impact  of  such 
pronouncements on the Group when adopted in future periods, are discussed below: 

•

AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 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.
The main changes introduced by the new Standard are as follows:
-

recognition of a right-of-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-of-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;
inclusion  of  variable  lease  payments  that  depend  on  an  index  or  a  rate  in  the  initial
measurement of the lease liability using the index or rate at the commencement date;
application of a practical expedient to permit a lessee to elect not to separate non-lease
components and instead account for all components as a lease; and
inclusion of 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. 

Although  the  directors  anticipate  that the  adoption of AASB 16 will  impact the Group's 
financial statements, the impact is not likely to be material where applicable.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation
of the financial report.

(a) General

Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below 
and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. 

Reporting basis and conventions 

These  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  on  an  accruals  basis  under  the  historical  cost 
convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and 
liabilities at fair value. 

Critical accounting estimates and judgements 

The  preparation  of  a  financial  report  in  conformity with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  requires 
management to make estimates,  judgements  and assumptions 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. 

Actual results may differ from the estimates. 

Fair value of financial assets 

The  Group  records  the  fair  value  of  financial  assets  using  the  market  value  of  the  investments  at 
reporting date.  While this represents the best estimate of the fair value as at the reporting date, the 
current market uncertainty means that, if the financial assets are sold in the future, the price achieved 
may  be  higher  or  lower  than  the  most  recent  valuation,  and  higher  or  lower  than  the  fair  value 
recorded in the financial statements. 

Impairment 

In  assessing  impairment,  management  estimates  the  recoverable  amount  of  each  asset  or  cash 
generating unit based on expected future cash flows and, where required, uses an interest rate to 
discount them. 

Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the determination 
of a suitable discount rate. 

Useful lives of depreciable assets 

Management  reviews its  estimate of the  useful lives of depreciable assets at  each reporting date, 
based on the expected useful life of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical 
obsolescence that may change the value of certain software and IT equipment. 

Inventories 

Management estimates the net realisable values of inventories, taking into account the most reliable 
evidence available at each reporting date. The future realisation of these inventories may be affected 
by future technology or other market-driven changes that may reduce future selling prices. 

(b) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate  all of  the assets,  liabilities and results of Zoono 
Group  Limited  and  all  subsidiaries  as  of  30  June  2019.  Subsidiaries  are  all  entities  over  which  the 
Group has control. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable

returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its 
power to direct the activities of the entity. 

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements 
of  the  Group  from  the  date  on  which  control  is  obtained  by  the  Group.  The  consolidation  of  a 
subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. 

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group 
entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed 
and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by 
the Group. 

(c) Business combination

The  Group  applies  the  acquisition  method  in  accounting  for  business  combinations.  The 
consideration transferred by the Group to obtain control of a subsidiary is calculated as the sum of 
the acquisition-date of fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred and the equity interests 
issued by the Group, which includes the fair value of any asset or liability arising from a contingent 
consideration arrangement. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred. 

The Group recognises identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination 
regardless of whether they have been previously recognised in the acquiree’s financial statements 
prior  to  the  acquisition.  Assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  are  generally  measured  at  their 
acquisition-date fair values. 

Goodwill is stated after separate recognition of identifiable intangible assets. It is calculated as the 
excess of the sum of: (a) fair value of consideration transferred, (b) the recognised amount of any 
non-controlling interest  in the  acquiree,  and (c) acquisition-date fair value  of any existing equity 
interest in the acquiree, over the acquisition-date fair values of identifiable net assets. If the fair 
values of identifiable net assets exceed the sum calculated above, the excess amount (i.e. gain on a 
bargain purchase) is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 

(d) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the Group entities is measured using the currency of the primary 
economic  environment  in  which  that  entity  operates.  The  consolidated  financial  statements  are 
presented in New Zealand dollars, which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency. 

Transactions and balances 

Foreign  currency  transactions  are  translated  into  functional  currency  using  the  exchange  rates 
prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year- 
end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the 
exchange  rate  at  the  date  of  the  transaction.  Non-monetary  items  measured  at  fair  value  are 
reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. 

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss, 
except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. 

Exchange  differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in 
other comprehensive income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised in other 
comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in profit or loss.

Group companies 

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from 
the Group’s presentation currency is translated as follows: 

•

•

•

Assets and liabilities are translated at year end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting
date.

Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year.

Retained earnings/Accumulated losses are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the
date of the transaction.

Exchange  differences  arising  on translation  of  foreign  operations with  functional  currencies  other 
than the Australian dollar are recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign 
currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. The cumulative amount of these 
differences is reclassified into profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed of. 

(e) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short- 
term  highly  liquid  investments  with  original  maturities  of  three  months  or  less  that  are  readily 
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in 
value. 

(f) Income tax

The charge for current income tax expense is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes 
payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or loss for the period.  It is calculated using the 
tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the reporting date. 

Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method in respect of temporary differences arising 
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. 
No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding 
a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. 

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is 
realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged to the statement of profit or loss  and other 
comprehensive income except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in 
which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity. 

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will 
be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. 

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is 
intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and 
liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of 
set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation 
authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net 
settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur 
in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be 
recovered or settled. 

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the 
assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that 
the consolidated entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be 
realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.

(g) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured 
products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed 
overheads. Overheads are applied on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on a 
first-in, first-out basis. Net realisable value  is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of 
business less any applicable selling expenses. 

(h) Property, plant and equipment - Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less accumulated depreciation and impairment 
losses. 

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as 
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow 
to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. 

All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the profit or loss during the financial period in which 
they are incurred. All fixed assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives to the Group. 

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: 

Class of fixed asset 

Depreciation rate 

Plant and equipment 
Motor vehicles 
Furniture and equipment 
Computer equipment 

Depreciation 

10 – 33% 
30% 
13 – 33% 
48 – 67 % 

The  assets'  residual  values  and  useful  lives  are  reviewed,  and  adjusted  if  appropriate,  at  each 
reporting date. An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if 
the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. 

Gains  and  losses  on  disposals  are  determined  by  comparing  proceeds  with  the  carrying  amount. 
These gains and losses are included in the profit or loss within profit or loss within other income or 
expenses. 

(i) Intangible Assets

Patents, trademarks and website development 

Patents,  trademarks  and website  development  are recognised  at  cost  of  acquisition.  They  have  a 
finite  life  and  are  carried  at  cost  less  any  accumulated  amortisation  and  any  impairment  losses. 
Patents, trademarks and website development are amortised over their useful lives of up to 10 years. 
Amortisation has been included within depreciation, amortisation and impairment of non-financial 
assets. 

(j) Impairment of Assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset 
may  be  impaired.  The  assessment  will  include  considering  external  sources  of  information  and 
internal  sources  of  information  including  dividends  received  from  subsidiaries,  associates  or  joint 
ventures deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test 
is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the 
asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of

the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, 
unless the asset is carried at a re-valued amount. Any impairment loss of a re-valued asset is treated 
as a revaluation decrease. 

Where  it  is  not  possible  to  estimate  the  recoverable  amount  of  an  individual  asset,  the  Group 
estimates  the  recoverable  amount  of  the  cash-generating  unit  to  which  the  asset  belongs. 
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. 

(k) 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 (i.e. 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 (i.e. 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  (i.e.  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. 

(l) Accounts payable

Trade payables and other accounts payable are recognised when the Group becomes obliged to make 
future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. Due to their short-term nature 
they  are  measured  at  amortised cost  and  not  discounted.  These  amounts  are  unsecured  and  are 
usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 

(m) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

Provisions for product warranties, legal disputes, onerous contracts or other claims are recognised 
when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable 
that  an  outflow  of  economic  resources  will  be  required  from  the  Group  and  amounts  can  be 
estimated reliably. Timing or amount of the outflow may still be uncertain.

Restructuring provisions are recognised only if a detailed formal plan for the restructuring has been 
developed and implemented, or management has at least announced the plan’s main features to 
those affected by it. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. 

Provisions  are  measured  at  the  estimated  expenditure  required  to  settle  the  present  obligation, 
based  on  the  most  reliable  evidence  available  at  the  reporting  date,  including  the  risks  and 
uncertainties  associated  with  the  present  obligation.  Where  there  are  a  number  of  similar 
obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering 
the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted to their present values, where the time 
value of money is material. 

Any reimbursement that the Group can be virtually certain to collect from a third party with respect 
to the obligation is recognised as a separate asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount 
of the related provision. In those cases where the possible outflow of economic resources as a 
result of present obligations is considered improbable or remote, no liability is recognised. 

(n) Financial Instruments

Initial recognition and measurement 

Financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  when  the  entity  becomes  a  party  to  the 
contractual provisions of the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the 
Group commits itself to either purchase or sell the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted). 

Financial instruments are  initially measured at fair value  plus transaction costs, except where the 
instrument  is  classified  “at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss”,  in  which  case  transaction  costs  are 
recognised as expenses in profit or loss immediately. 

Classification and subsequent measurement 

Financial instruments  are subsequently measured at fair value,  amortised cost using the effective 
interest method, or cost. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine 
fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. 

Amortised  cost  is  calculated  as  the  amount  at  which  the  financial  asset  or  financial  liability  is 
measured  at  initial  recognition  less  principal  repayments  and  any  reduction  for  impairment  and 
adjusted  for  any  cumulative  amortisation  of  the  difference  between  that  initial  amount  and  the 
maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method. 

The  effective  interest  method  is  used  to  allocate  interest  income  or  interest  expense  over  the 
relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments 
or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected 
life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to 
the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net 
cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying amount with a consequential recognition of 
an income or expense item in profit or loss. 

(i)

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that 
are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses 
are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  through  the  amortisation  process  and  when  the  financial  asset  is 
derecognised.

(ii)

Financial liabilities

Non-derivative  financial  liabilities  other  than  financial  guarantees  are  subsequently  measured  at 
amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and 
when the financial liability is derecognised. 

Impairment 

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a 
financial asset has been impaired. A financial asset (or a group of financial assets) is deemed to be 
impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events 
(a  “loss  event”)  having  occurred,  which  has  an  impact  on  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  of  the 
financial asset(s). 

In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost, loss events may include: indications that the 
debtors (or a group of debtors) are experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency 
in  interest  or  principal  payments;  indications  that  they  will  enter  bankruptcy  or  other  financial 
reorganisation; and changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. 

For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance 
account  is used to reduce the  carrying amount of financial assets  impaired by credit  losses. After 
having taken all possible measures of recovery, if management establishes that the carrying amount 
cannot  be  recovered  by  any  means,  at  that  point  the  written-off  amounts  are  charged  to  the 
allowance  account,  or  the  carrying  amount  of  impaired  financial  assets  is  reduced  directly  if  no 
impairment amount was previously recognised in the allowance account. 

When the terms of financial assets that would otherwise have been past due or impaired have been 
renegotiated, the Group recognises the impairment for such financial assets by taking into account 
the  original  terms  as  if  the  terms  have  not  been  renegotiated  so  that  the  loss  events  that  have 
occurred are duly considered. 

De-recognition 

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expire or the 
asset  is  transferred  to  another  party  whereby  the  entity  no  longer  has  any  significant  continuing 
involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised 
when the related obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the 
carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair 
value  of  consideration  paid,  including  the  transfer  of  non-cash  assets  or  liabilities  assumed,  is 
recognised in profit or loss. 

(o) Receivables

Trade receivable are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost 
using the affective interest method, less any allowance for impairment. 

(p) Leases

Leases of fixed assets, where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of 
the asset (but not the legal ownership) are transferred to the Group, are classified as finance leases. 

Finance leases are capitalised by recognising an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal 
to  the  fair  value  of  the  leased  property  or  the  present  value  of  the  minimum  lease  payments, 
including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of 
the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period. 

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives 
or the lease term.

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the 
lessor, are recognised as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 

(q) Employee Benefits

Short-term employee benefits 

Provision is made for the Group’s obligation for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee 
benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 
12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related 
service, including wages, salaries and sick leave. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the 
(undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled. 

The Group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are 
recognised as part of current trade and other payables in the statement of financial position. 

(r) Share-based payments

The cost to the Company of share options granted to directors and executive officers is included at 
fair value as part of the directors’ and executive officers’ aggregate remuneration in the financial year 
the options are granted. The  fair value of the share option are calculated using the Black Scholes 
option pricing model, which takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting 
and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the non-tradable nature of the option, the current 
price and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk- 
free interest rate for the term of the option. 

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity settled share-based payment is expensed 
on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. 

(s) Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into 
account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as 
the provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market 
for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount 
ultimately received is interest revenue. 

Revenue  from  the  sale  of  goods  is  recognised  at  the  point  of  delivery  as  this  corresponds  to  the 
transfer  of  significant  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  of  the  goods  and  the  cessation  of  all 
involvement by the Group in those goods. 

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax. 

Other income 

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method, which for floating rate financial 
assets is the rate inherent in the instrument. 

Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. 

Realised gains and losses on sale are recognised as income or expense respectively in the statement 
of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income  and  are  calculated  as  the  difference  between 
consideration on sale and the original cost. 

(t) Goods and services tax (GST)

The Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income has been prepared so that all 
components are stated exclusive of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable

from the tax office. All items in the Statement of Financial Position are stated exclusive of GST, with 
the exception of receivables and payables, which include GST. 

(u) Earnings per share

i)

Basic earnings per share:

Basic  earnings  per  share  is  determined  by  dividing  the  operating  profit/(loss)  after  income  tax 
excluding any cost of servicing equity other than ordinary shares by the weighted average number of 
ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year. 

ii)

Diluted earnings per share:

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in determining earnings per share by taking into 
account  amounts  unpaid  on  ordinary  shares  and  any  reduction  in  earnings  per  share  that  will 
probably arise from the exercise of options outstanding during the financial year. 

(v) Segment reporting

Segment revenues and expenses are those directly attributable to the segments and include any joint 
revenue and expenses where a reasonable basis of allocation exists. Segment assets include all assets 
used by a segment and consist principally of cash, receivables, inventories, intangibles and property, 
plant and equipment, net of allowances and accumulated depreciation and amortisation. Segment 
liabilities  consist  principally  of  payables,  employee  benefits,  accrued  expenses,  provisions  and 
borrowings. The Group do not allocate revenues, assets or liabilities to individual segments. 

(w) Comparative information

Comparative figures are, where appropriate, reclassified to be comparable with the figures 
presented for the financial year.

income it will be able to utilise carry-forward losses. The Group has losses available to be carried 
forward of NZ$2,727,745 to 30 June 2018. 

The net deferred tax asset will only be obtained if: 

(a)

(b)

(c)

the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to
enable the benefit from the deductions for the loss to be realised;

the Company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by law;
and

no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit from
the deduction of the loss.

Consequently, no deferred tax asset has been recognised.

The Group applies the AASB 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which permits the use 
of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. 

The following table details the loss allowance as at 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018. 

As the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different 
customer  segments,  the  provision  for  loss  allowance  based  on  past  due  status  is  not  further  distinguished 
between the Group’s different customer bases.

Zoono and its products are subject to various laws and regulations including but not limited
to  accounting  standards,  tax  laws,  environmental  laws,  product  content  requirement,
labelling/packaging,  regulations  and  customs  regulations.  Changes  in  these  laws  and
regulations (including  interpretation  and  enforcement)  could  adversely  affect  the  Group’s
financial performance. Laws and regulations are specific to each geographic location. In this
regard,  there  is  a  risk  that  a  certain  product  may  not  be  able  to  be  supplied  in  another
jurisdiction because it fails to meet that jurisdictions regulatory requirements (e.g. product
registration  requirements).  Failure  of  the  Group  to  remain  up  to  date  with  these  various
regulatory requirements, could adversely affect the Group financial performance.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The directors are aware of a claim against the Company as at the date to which these
financial statements are made up as follows;

Qingdao Zoono Biotech Company Limited instigated legal proceedings against Zoono on 20
May 2019 citing breach of contract under a distribution agreement entered into on 29 May
2013.   Zoono  lodged  a  counter  claim  which  stated;  Qingdao  breached  the  distribution
agreement by not meeting the minimum annual volumes under the agreement and making
disparaging comments about Zoono and its products. The Group’s insurers have accepted the
claim and will meet all costs arising from this action less any insurance excess payable.

The Directors do not believe the outcome of the proceedings will have a material effect on
the financial statements as Zoono’s counter claim exceeds Qingdao’s claim.

22.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial risk management policies

The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of current accounts with banks, accounts receivable and 
payable. 

i.

Treasury risk management

Management  considers  on  a  regular  basis  the  financial  risk  exposure  and  evaluates  treasury 
management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts.

The  overall  risk  management  strategy  seeks  to meet  the  Group’s  financial  targets,  whilst  minimising 
potential adverse effects on financial performance.

Management operates under policies approved by the board of directors which approves and reviews
risk management policies on a regular basis. These include future cash flow requirements.

ii.

Financial risk exposures and management

The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign
currency risk, liquidity risk, credit risk and price risk.

(a) Foreign currency risk exposure

Most  of  the  Group’s  transactions  are  carried  out  in  $NZD  and  British  Pound  (GBP).  Exposures  to 
currency exchange  rates  arise  from  the  Group’s  overseas  sales  and  purchases,  which  are  primarily 
denominated in US Dollars ($USD), Australian Dollars ($AUD) and GBP. The Group also holds a bank 
account in $USD, $AUD and GBP.  

(b)

Interest rate risk exposure

The  Group  is  exposed  to  interest  rate  risk  through  cash  and  deposits  held.  The  Group  continually 
monitors interest rates and financial markets for the Group’s cash on deposit and regularly reviews 
future cash flow requirements. The following table summarises the interest rate risk for the Group, 
together  with  the  effective  weighted  average  interest  rate  for  each  class  of  financial  assets  and 
liabilities.

(c) Credit risk exposure

The  maximum  exposure  to  credit  risk,  excluding  the  value  of  any  collateral  or  other  security,  at 
reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provision for impaired 
receivables, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. 

The Group does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single debtor or group of debtors 
under financial instruments entered into by the Group. 

Receivables  due  from  major  debtors  are  not  normally  secured  by  collateral,  however  the  credit 
worthiness of debtors is monitored.

(d) Liquidity risk

The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows to ensure that adequate funding is 
maintained. The Group’s financial liabilities consist of trade and other payables in the normal course 
of business and as such are normally due for payment within 30 days of receipt of a valid tax invoice. 
The Group does not have any liquidity risk associated with any borrowing. 

(e) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk on cash and short-term deposits is not considered to be a material risk due to the 
short- term nature of these financial instruments.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE OWNERS OF 
ZOONO GROUP LIMITED 

Report on the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have  audited  the  financial  report  of  Zoono  Group  Limited  and  Controlled  Entities  (the  Group),  which 
comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019, the consolidated statement 
of  profit  or  loss,  the  consolidated  statement  of  comprehensive  income,  the  consolidated  statement  of 
changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the 
consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant account policies and other explanatory 
information, and the directors’ declaration. 

In  our  opinion  the  accompanying  financial  report  of  Zoono  Group  Limited  and  Controlled  Entities  is  in 
accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

a.

b.

giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its financial
performance for the year then ended; and

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion 

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 confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given 
to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this 
auditor’s report. 

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

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our 
audit of the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2019. 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.



For a sample of inventory items, we identified
the  input  costs  attributed  to  the  items  and
compared this to the last purchase invoices.

 On a sample basis we tested the net realisable
value  of  inventory  items  to  recent  selling
prices.



Verifying  a  sample  of  transactions  on  either
side  of  the  accounting  period  to  ensure  they
were recorded in the correct period.

We  also  made  enquiries  of  management,  including 
those outside the finance function, and considered the 
results  of  our  testing  above  to  determine  whether  any 
specific write downs were required.

Revenue Recognition  

Refer to Note 4(s) “Revenue” 

Under the group’s business model consideration is 
sometimes received before the sale of goods occurs 
and is recognised as deferred income. Revenue is 
subsequently  recognised  when  the  goods  are 
delivered. 

We focused on this matter as a key audit matter as 
there is a risk that revenue may be recognised prior 
to the sale of goods. 

Going Concern 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been 
prepared  on  a  going  concern  basis,  which 
contemplates  continuity of normal  trading  activities 
and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities 
in the normal course of business. 

The company incurred a net loss of $2,418,984 and 
net  operating  cash  outflows  of  $2,881,547  for  the 
year ended 30 June 2019. 

The  Directors  of  the  Company  consider  that  the 
cash  flow  projections  and  assumptions  provided 
support to the ability of the company to pay its debts 
as  and  when  they  fall  due  and  that  there  is  no 
requirement  to  raise  additional  capital  to  fund  the 
company’s daily operations.   

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

 Obtaining an understanding of the key controls

in the revenue recognition cycle.

 Obtaining  a  sample  of  contracts  and  tracing
the  terms  and  conditions  to  ensure  that
revenue  was  recognised  in  accordance  with
accounting standards.





Verifying  a  sample  of  income  in  advance
released to sales to supporting documentation
to  ensure  the  revenue  was  earned  and
appropriately recognised.

Verifying  a  sample  of  transactions  on  either
side  of  the  accounting  period  to  ensure  they
were recorded in the correct period.

Our  procedures

Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included 
in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, 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.

AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES 

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE OWNERS OF 
ZOONO GROUP LIMITED 

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

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

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group 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 have no 
realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

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

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional 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.

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.

AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES 

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE OWNERS OF 
ZOONO GROUP LIMITED 

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 pages 10 to 16 of the directors’ report for the year ended 
30 June 2019.  

In our opinion, the remuneration report of Zoono Group Limited for the year ended 30 June 2019 complies with 
s 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. 

Responsibilities 

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.
