2. Significant Accounting Policies

Statement of compliance

The half-year financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting . Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting . The half year report does not include the type of notes normally included in the annual report. This should be read in conjunction with the most recent financial report.

Basis of preparation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical costs. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

The company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 , dated 24 March 2016, and in accordance with that Corporations Instrument amounts in the financial report are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half-year financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the company’s 2021 annual report for the financial year ended 30 June 2021. Several amendments and interpretations apply for the first time, however they do not have an impact on the interim financial statements.

Where required by Accounting Standards, comparative amounts have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation in the current financial year.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (cont’d)

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Group’s statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

3. Segment reporting

The Group operates in one segment being the manufacture and sale of video equipment. No operating segments have been aggregated in arriving at the reportable segment of the Group.

The Company reports revenues from external customers attributable to the following geographic regions:

  • North America

  • Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA)

  • Asia Pacific (APAC)

  • Other

11. Financial Instruments

During the half-year ended 31 December 2021, Atomos entered into an option agreement with the shareholders of Cinemacraft to acquire the issued capital of Cinemacraft in two tranches over a twenty four month period subject to satisfactory completion of certain terms and conditions.

Cinemacraft is a technology company that has developed a video serving platform technology that incorporates some unique technologies, specific patents and capabilities across various platforms all of which occupy different parts of the global video ecosystem.

The Option represents a financial asset, being the right to acquire the share capital of Cinemacraft at a future date, and on this basis, is accounted for as a derivative financial asset, which is recognised at fair

value through profit or loss. On inception date and each subsequent reporting period, this instrument will be valued and any movement in the underlying value of the option will be recognised in the profit or loss in the period to which it relates.

For the half-year ended 31 December 2021 an independent valuation expert has confirmed that given the terms and conditions of the Option the movement in the underlying value at inception (21 November 2021) and at 31 December 2021 was unlikely to be material.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report to the members of Atomos Limited

Conclusion

We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Atomos Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021, the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows and the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration as set out on pages 3 to 18 .

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 the Group is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2021 and of 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.

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 Half-year Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group 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.

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 review report.

Directors’ Responsibilities for the Half-year Financial Report

The directors of the Company 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.

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.

Member of Deloitte Asia Pacific Limited and the Deloitte organisation.

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 Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2021 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.
