| Stephen Gerlach | Non-executive Chairman |
|---|---|
| Andrew Sales | Managing Director |
| Sean Ebert | Executive Director |
| Leonard Piro | Non-executive Director |

Principal activities
The principal activities of AML3D during the financial period were to
- a) design and construct 3D parts using Wire Additive Manufacturing technology, and to develop that technology; b) Design and construct ARCEMY[® ] 3D printing modules for sale to customers.
No significant changes in the nature of the Company’s activity occurred during the interim financial period.
Operating and Financial Review
Review of operations
The half-year ended 31 December 2020 was a period of continued establishment and growth in accordance with the Company’s strategy and goals since listing on the ASX in April 2020. Development of the Company’s technology has continued and the Company’s transition to its new Head Office and production facility based at Edinburgh Parks, South Australia was completed. AML3D currently has the only diversified large-scale WAM® metal fabrication facility in the southern Hemisphere that can produce finished parts and components to a certified standard under an accredited Quality Management System.
Operating Results and Financial Position
The loss for the consolidated entity after providing for income tax amounted to $2,056,321 (31 December 2019: Loss $1,837,631).
The Company achieved sales revenue of $143,873 (31 December 2019: $86,999). Total revenue was $419,523, including interest and Government support in the form of Job-Keeper and grants (31 December 2019: $87,725). Sales revenue was derived primarily from manufacturing of prototypes and parts. Work in hand as at 31 December 2020 includes two ARCEMY[®] 3D Printing Modules which will be delivered in the second half of the financial year. Provided that these are fully delivered in the second half of the financial year, it is anticipated that the associated revenue to be recognised in relation to those contracts in the period to 30 June 2021 will be approximately $1m.
In the interim financial period the Company has continued to use IPO funds in a way consistent with the Company’s business objectives, as outlined in the IPO prospectus dated 10 February 2020. The Company raised an additional $7.0m (before costs) by way of issue of 15,555,557 new ordinary fully paid shares on 12 October 2020 at an issue price of $0.45 per share in a private placement to a range of new and existing institutional, sophisticated and professional investors. These additional funds were raised to ensure that the Company is well capitalised to accelerate commercialisation without detracting from the key initiatives detailed in the IPO prospectus. At 31 December 2020 the Company had $11,131,884 in cash and cash equivalents (30 June 2020: $8,227,986).
Material Business Risks
Business risks with the potential to impact the Group’s operations, financial results and its ability to deliver corporate objectives are disclosed in the Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2020. There was no significant change in the Group’s assessment of material business risks during the half-year ended 31 December 2020.

AML3D LIMITED
Independent auditor’s review report
Report on the Review of the Half-Year Interim Report
Conclusion
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of AML3D Limited (the Company) and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half year (the consolidated group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2020, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the halfyear ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of AML3D Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its performance for the half year ended on that date; and
-
b) complying with Australian Accounting Standard 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
Responsibility of Management for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of the consolidated entity are responsible for the preparation of the half-year 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 half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Half-Year Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
