TopBetta Holdings Limited Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer's report 30 June 2017

==> picture [47 x 22] intentionally omitted <==

To F e llow Shareh o lders,

I am p leased to p r esent the Annual Repo r t for the ye a r ended June 30, 2017. It has been a remarkabl e and signifi c ant year for T o pBetta in our second ye a r as a publi c ly listed Co m pany.

The w agering an d gaming m arket in Australia is o n e of the m o st competi t ive and so p histicated m arkets in t h e world. TopB e tta operat e s in a field of large a n d dominan t local wag e ring busin e sses as w e ll as globa l multi-natio n als with subst a ntial resources.

Our relative size and the fo r midable competition means TopB e tta, from it s Newcastl e headquart e rs, has to be agile, innov a tive and re s ourceful to c ompete in t h e domestic market.

All th e se attribute s were teste d during the 2017 financial year.

Our c o ntent and f a ntasy platf o rms were c h allenged by a raft of ne w entrants a n d product e x tensions of existing co m petitors. The c hange in th e status of t he Norfolk G aming Aut h ority created not only a period of u ncertainty f o r TopBetta but also, ultim a tely, an unt e nable situation with reg a rd to our w a gering licence. TopBett a applied su c cessfully fo r a new lice n ce out of North e rn Territory that included moving p a rts of our operation to th e NT.

At th e same time, and a key h ighlight of o ur year, To p Betta identified an opp o rtunity to p r ovide a par i -mutuel pro d uct as a busin e ss to busi n ess offering to the Glo b al wagering market. This was an ambitious pr o ject that re q uired regul a tory and licensing authoris a tion, establishment of a leading-edge technolog y platform a n d generatio n of sufficie n t liquidity.

The G lobal Tote, a subsidiary of TopBetta Holdings Li m ited, was e stablished during Augu s t 2016. It holds a B2B e G ambling license out of Ald e rney, UK. Working with Mo d ern Wageri n g Systems, The Global Tote built u p a state-of-the art tote p latform, whi c h was laun c hed with limite d coverage i n May 2017. In addition, The Global T ote has established op e rations in S r i Lanka. We a r e confident the changing landscape of world w a gering, of w hich Australia is a small but vibrant part, has o p ened the door f or The Glob a l Tote to p o sition itself a s an attractive product o ffering for all approved i n ternational w agering operators.

Internationally, T h e Global Tote receive d (in July 2 0 17) its lic e nce from t h e UK Gambling Com m ission to launch the whol e sale B2B platform in th e UK marke t . It has als o applied fo r a licence t o operate it s pooled pro d ucts in the US. The Com p any is very e xcited by these expansion opportunities.

In ad d ition to the wholesale o pportunities for The Gl o bal Tote, th e retail busi n ess of Top B etta receiv e d approval for a UK licen c e in July 20 1 7. It allows the Compa n y to provid e facilities fo r “real event betting” in t h e UK. Top B etta has also applied for an Advance-D e posit Wag e ring licence (“ADW”) in t he US, whi c h if succes s ful would af f ord TopBet t a similar rig h ts in the US a s an Australi a n corporat e bookmake r ’s licence d o es in Austr a lia (althoug h only pari- m utuel bettin g is permitte d and not fixed o dds).

Durin g the last q u arter of 20 1 7, TopBett a acquired the wagerin g operations of Melbour n e-based o n line bookm a ker Mad Bookie to suppor t our retail w agering bu s iness of To p Betta. This was compl e ted in early June and r e sults are in line with expe c tations.

It is n o w clear to b oth manag e ment and th e board that the strategi c priorities o f the Compa n y are:

  • (i) our wholesale busine s s of The Gl o bal Tote; a n d (ii) the retail w agering op e rations of T opBetta and Mad Booki e

In lin e with these priorities, w e have wou n d back our activity in 1 2 Follow, our content ar m , and the pr o motional investment in our tournamen t (fantasy) a c tivity. We h a ve also sto p ped develo p ment of th e e-Sports o p portunity, G a meBetta.

As w e announce d in our mo s t recent Q u arterly Re p ort, the fan t asy tourna m ents platfo r m continue s to be a p a rt of the Com p any’s longe r -term strate g y but resources have b e en scaled b ack in the i n terim as the Company c o ntinues to d eliver on the w h olesale an d retail wage r ing prioritie s .

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration The o bjective of the group' s executive reward fra m ework is to ensure r e ward for performance is competitive and appropriate for th e results delivered. The framework a ligns executive reward w ith the ac h ievement o f strategic o b jectives and t h e creation o f value for s hareholder s , and it is c onsidered t o conform t o the market best practi c e for the delivery of rewar d . The Boa r d of Direct o rs ('the Bo a rd') ensure s that exec u tive reward satisfies th e following k ey criteria f or good rewar d governan c e practices: ● c ompetitiveness and rea s onablenes s ; ● a cceptability to sharehol d ers; ● p erformance linkage / ali g nment of e x ecutive co m pensation; a nd ● t ransparenc y .

The N omination and Remu n eration Co m mittee ('NRC') is responsible fo r determining and revi e wing remu n eration arran g ements for its directors and execu t ives. The p e rformance o f the group depends o n the qualit y of its direc t ors and exec u tives. The r e muneration philosophy i s to attract, m otivate an d retain high performanc e and high q u ality perso n nel.

  • The r e ward fram e work is designed to alig n executive reward to s h areholders' interests. T h e Board ha v e consider e d that it shoul d seek to en h ance shar e holders' interests by: ● h aving econ o mic profit a s a core co m ponent of p l an design; ● f ocusing on s ustained growth in sha r eholder we a lth, consisti n g of divide n ds and gro w th in share price, and d e livering c onstant or i n creasing return on ass e ts as well a s focusing th e executive o n key non- f inancial driv e rs of value; and

  • a ttracting an d retaining high calibre e xecutives.

  • Additionally, the r e ward frame w ork should seek to enhance executives' interes t s by: ● r ewarding c a pability and experience; ● r eflecting co m petitive re w ard for con t ribution to g r owth in sha r eholder we a lth; and ● p roviding a c lear structu r e for earnin g rewards.

In ac c ordance wi t h best pra c tice corpor a te governa n ce, the str u cture of n o n-executive director an d executive director remu n eration is s e parate.

Non- e xecutive dir e ctors' remu n eration Fees and paym e nts to non-executive directors refl e ct the de m ands and r esponsibiliti e s of their role. Non-e x ecutive direct o rs' fees an d payments are review e d annually b y the NRC. The NRC m ay, from ti m e to time, receive adv i ce from indep e ndent rem u neration consultants to ensure non - executive directors' fee s and paym e nts are ap p ropriate an d in line with t h e market. T he chairma n 's fees are determined independen t ly to the fe e s of other n o n-executiv e directors b a sed on comp a rative role s in the exte r nal market. The chairm a n is not pr e sent at any discussion s relating to t he determi n ation of his o w n remuneration.

ASX listing rules r equire the a ggregate n o n-executive directors' r e muneration be determined periodic a lly by shareholders. The m ost recen t determination was u n der the C o nstitution, w here the s hareholders approved that the a g gregate remu n eration mu s t not excee d $500,000 p er annum.

Exec u tive remun e ration

The group aims t o reward ex e cutives bas e d on their p o sition and r esponsibilit y , with a lev e l and mix of remunerati o n which has b o th fixed an d variable components.

The executive re m uneration and reward fr a mework ha s four comp o nents:

  • b ase pay an d non-mone t ary benefits ;

  • s hort-term p e rformance incentives; ● s hare-based payments, s uch as long-term incent i ve plans; a n d ● o ther remun e ration such as superan n uation and l ong service leave.

The combination o f these co m prises the e x ecutive's total remuner a tion.

Fixed remunerati o n, consistin g of base s a lary, supera n nuation an d non-mone t ary benefits, are to be r e viewed an n ually by the N R C based o n individual a nd busines s unit perfor m ance, the o verall perfo r mance of the group and comparabl e market remu n eration.

Exec u tives may r e ceive their fixed remu n eration in t h e form of c ash or othe r fringe ben e fits (for ex a mple moto r vehicle benefits) where it does not cr e ate any additional costs to the grou p and provid e s additional value to the executive.

Parent entity information In accordance w ith the Co r porations A ct 2001, these financi a l statemen t s present t he results of the gro u p only. Supplementary in f ormation a b out the parent entity is disclosed in n ote 27.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements inc o rporate the assets and liabilities of a ll subsidiaries of TopB e tta Holdings Limited as at 3 0 June 2017 and the results of all s u bsidiaries f o r the year t h en ended.

Subsidiaries are a ll those e n tities over w hich the g r oup has c o ntrol. The g roup contr o ls an entity when the g roup is expo s ed to, or ha s rights to, v ariable retu r ns from its involvement with the entity and has t he ability to affect thos e returns throu g h its power to direct th e activities o f the entity. S ubsidiaries are fully consolidated f r om the dat e on which c o ntrol is transferred to the group. They are de-con s olidated fro m the date t h at control c e ases.

Intercompany tra n sactions, b a lances and unrealised gains on tr a nsactions b e tween entities in the g r oup are eli m inated. Unre a lised losses are also eli m inated unl e ss the tran s action provi d es evidenc e of the imp a irment of t h e asset tra n sferred. Acco u nting polici e s of subsidiaries have b een chang e d where ne c essary to e nsure consi s tency with t he policies a dopted by th e group.

The acquisition of subsidiarie s is account e d for using the acquisiti o n method o f accounting. A change i n ownership interest, witho u t the loss o f control, i s accounted for as an e quity trans a ction, wher e the differ e nce betwe e n the consi d eration transferred and the book value of the s hare of th e non-contr o lling intere s t acquired i s recognis e d directly i n equity attrib u table to the parent.

Wher e the grou p loses con t rol over a s ubsidiary, i t derecognises the as s ets includi n g goodwill, liabilities a n d noncontr o lling interest in the sub s idiary together with an y cumulative translation d ifferences r ecognised in equity. The group recognises the fair value of th e considera t ion received and the fai r value of an y investmen t retained to g ether with a ny gain or reduction in pr o fit or loss.

Revenue recognition Reve n ue is recog n ised when it is probabl e that the economic ben e fit will flow t o the group and the rev e nue can b e reliably meas u red. Reve n ue is meas u red at the f air value of the conside r ation recei v ed or recei v able. Reve n ue includes fantasy wage r ing, wageri n g and cont e nt services.

Fantasy wagering

Fantasy wagerin g revenue, b e ing the entry fees to t o urnaments, is brought t o account a s revenue i n profit or lo s s when tourn a ments are c ompleted.

Wag e ring

Wag e ring revenu e is recogni s ed as the r e sidual valu e after dedu c ting the return to custo m ers from th e ir paid wag e rs. The amounts bet on a n event are r ecognised a s a liability i n the statem e nt of finan c ial position u ntil the outc o me of the e vents is deter m ined, at which time the revenue is b rought to a c count in pro f it or loss.

Cont e nt services Cont e nt services r evenue is r e cognised in profit or los s once the s e rvice has b e en rendered. Prepaid services are d eferred and r e cognised a s a liability in the statem e nt of financi a l position u n til the servi c e is render e d.

Current and non-current classification Asset s and liabilities are pres e nted in the s tatement of financial po s ition based on current a nd non-curr e nt classific a tion.

An asset is classi f ied as curre n t when: it i s either expected to be r e alised or int e nded to be sold or con s umed in the group's norm a l operating c ycle; it is h e ld primarily for the purp o se of tradin g ; it is expe c ted to be re a lised within 12 months a fter the repor t ing period; o r the asset is cash or c a sh equivalent unless re s tricted from being exch a nged or us e d to settle a liability for at least 12 mo n ths after th e reporting p e riod. All ot h er assets are classified a s non-curr e nt.

A lia b ility is class i fied as curr e nt when: it is either ex p ected to b e settled in t h e group's n ormal oper a ting cycle; i t is held primarily for the p urpose of t rading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting p e riod; or the r e is no unco n ditional righ t to defer th e settlement of the liabili t y for at least 12 months after the re p orting perio d . All other liabilities are cl a ssified as n on-current.

Defer r ed tax asse t s and liabili t ies are alw a ys classifie d as non-cur r ent.

Leases

The d eterminatio n of whethe r an arrangement is or c ontains a lease is base d on the su b stance of t h e arrange m ent and requi r es an asse s sment of w h ether the fu l filment of th e arrangem e nt is depen d ent on the u se of a sp e cific asset or assets and t h e arrangement conveys a right to u s e the asset.

A dis t inction is m a de betwee n finance le a ses, which e ffectively tr a nsfer from the lessor t o the lessee substantiall y all the risks a nd benefit s incidental to the owne r ship of leased assets, a nd operating leases, u n der which t h e lessor ef f ectively retain s substantia l ly all such risks and benefits.

Finance leases a r e capitalise d . A lease a s set and liability are est a blished at t h e fair value of the lease d assets, or if lower, the p r esent valu e of minimu m lease pay m ents. Lea s e payment s are allocat e d between the princip a l compone n t of the lease liability and t he finance c osts, so as t o achieve a constant ra t e of interest on the rem a ining balan c e of the liability.

Leas e d assets ac q uired unde r a finance l e ase are de p reciated ov e r the asset' s useful life o r over the s horter of th e asset's usefu l life and the lease term i f there is n o reasonable certainty th a t the group will obtain o w nership at the end of t h e lease term.

Oper a ting lease p ayments, n e t of any in c entives rec e ived from t h e lessor, ar e charged t o profit or lo s s on a straight-line basis over the ter m of the lea s e.

Impairment of financial assets

The g roup asses s es at the e n d of each r e porting per i od whether there is an y objective e v idence that a financial a sset or group of financial assets is i m paired. Obj e ctive evidence include s significant financial dif f iculty of the issuer or o b ligor; a breach of contra c t such as d efault or d e linquency i n payments; the lender granting to a borrower concession s due to econ o mic or leg a l reasons t h at the len d er would n o t otherwise do; it bec o mes proba b le that the borrower w ill enter bankruptcy or other financial r eorganisati o n; the disa p pearance o f an active m arket for t h e financial a sset; or ob s ervable data i n dicating th a t there is a m easurable d ecrease in estimated future cash fl o ws.

The a mount of th e impairmen t allowance f or loans an d receivable s carried at a mortised c o st is the dif f erence bet w een the asset's carrying amount and t he present v alue of estimated futur e cash flows, discounted at the origi n al effective interest rate. If there is a r eversal of i m pairment, t he reversal cannot exc e ed the amo r tised cost t h at would h a ve been re c ognised had t h e impairme n t not been m ade and is reversed to profit or los s .

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes Reve n ues, expenses and as s ets are rec o gnised net of the amo u nt of asso c iated GST, unless the G ST incurred is not recov e rable from t he tax auth o rity. In this case it is re c ognised as part of the c ost of the a c quisition of the asset o r as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables a r e stated in c lusive of the amount o f GST receivable or pa y able. The n et amount of GST recov e rable from, or payable to, the tax a uthority is i ncluded in o ther receiv a bles or oth e r payables in the stat e ment of finan c ial position.

Cash flows are p resented o n a gross basis. The G ST compo n ents of ca s h flows ari s ing from in v esting or financing activi t ies which ar e recoverable from, or p a yable to th e tax authority, are prese n ted as ope r ating cash flows. Com m itments an d contingencies are discl o sed net of the amount o f GST reco v erable from, or payable t o, the tax a u thority.

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted Austr a lian Accounting Standards and I n terpretation s that hav e recently b een issued or amend e d but are not yet mandatory, have not been e a rly adopted by the group for the an n ual reporti n g period ended 30 Jun e 2017. The group's asse s sment of th e impact of t h ese new or amended A ccounting S t andards an d Interpretat i ons, most r e levant to th e group, are s e t out below.

AAS B 9 Financial Instruments

This s tandard is a pplicable t o annual rep o rting perio d s beginnin g on or after 1 January 2 018. The s t andard replaces all previ o us version s of AASB 9 and com p letes the p roject to replace IAS 3 9 'Financial Instrumen t s: Recognition and Meas u rement'. A A SB 9 introduces new cl a ssification a nd measur e ment mode l s for financial assets. A financial as s et shall be m e asured at a mortised c o st, if it is h e ld within a b usiness model whose o bjective is t o hold asse t s in order t o collect contr a ctual cash flows, which arise on sp e cified dates and solely principal and interest. All o ther financial instrume n t assets are t o be classifi e d and mea s ured at fair value through profit or loss unless the entity makes an irr e vocable ele c tion on initial recognition t o present gains and lo s ses on equi t y instrume n ts (that are not held-for-trading) in o ther compr e hensive inco m e ('OCI'). F o r financial liabilities, the standard requires the portion of t he change in fair valu e that relate s to the entity's own cred i t risk to be presented in OCI (unl e ss it would create an accounting mismatch). New simpler hedge acco u nting requir e ments are i n tended to m ore closely align the ac c ounting tre a tment with the risk man a gement act i vities of the e n tity. New i m pairment r equirement s will use a n 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') mo d el to reco g nise an all o wance. Impai r ment will b e measured u nder a 12- m onth ECL m ethod unle s s the credit risk on a fi n ancial instr u ment has increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime EC L method is a dopted. Th e standard i n troduces a d ditional new d isclosures. T he group w ill adopt this standard fr o m 1 July 2 0 18. It is not expected to significantly impact the f inancial state m ents on t h e basis th a t the main financial a s sets recog n ised repre s ent cash a nd cash e q uivalent a n d trade recei v ables that do not carry a significant financing c o mponent and involve a s ingle cash f low representing the re p ayment of pri n cipal, which in the case of trade rec e ivables is t h e transacti o n price. Bot h asset clas s es will continue to be m e asured at fac e value. Other financial a sset classes are not m a terial to the group. Financial liabiliti e s of the group are not i m pacted as th e group doe s not carry them at fair v a lue.

AAS B 15 Revenu e from Cont r acts with C u stomers This s tandard is a pplicable t o annual re p orting perio d s beginnin g on or afte r 1 January 2018. The s tandard pr o vides a singl e standard for revenue r e cognition. T h e core prin c iple of the s tandard is t h at an entity will recogni s e revenue to depict the tr a nsfer of pr o mised goo d s or servic e s to custo m ers in an a m ount that r e flects the c onsideratio n to which t h e entity expe c ts to be enti t led in exch a nge for tho s e goods or s ervices. Th e standard w ill require: c o ntracts (eit h er written, v erbal or impli e d) to be ide n tified, toge t her with the separate p e rformance o bligations w ithin the co n tract; deter m ine the tra n saction price, adjusted f o r the time value of m o ney excluding credit ri s k; allocati o n of the tr a nsaction price to the s eparate perfo r mance obli g ations on a basis of r e lative stand-alone selli n g price of e ach distinc t good or s e rvice, or estimation approach if no di s tinct observable prices e xist; and r e cognition of revenue w h en each pe r formance o b ligation is s atisfied. Credi t risk will b e presented separately as an expe n se rather than adjusted to revenue. For goo d s, the perf o rmance oblig a tion would b e satisfied w hen the cu s tomer obta i ns control o f the goods . For servic e s, the perfo r mance obli g ation is satisfied when th e service has been pro v ided, typica l ly for promi s es to transfer services to custome r s. For perf o rmance oblig a tions satisfi e d over time , an entity w o uld select a n appropria t e measure o f progress t o determin e how much r evenue shoul d be recogn i sed as the p erformanc e obligation i s satisfied. C ontracts wi t h customer s will be pre s ented in a n entity's state m ent of fina n cial position as a con t ract liability , a contract asset, or a receivable, depending on the rel a tionship betw e en the entit y 's performa n ce and the customer's p ayment. S u fficient qua n titative and q ualitative disclosure is r equired to en a ble users t o understan d the contra c ts with cust o mers; the s ignificant ju d gements m ade in appl y ing the gui d ance to those contracts; a nd any assets recogni s ed from th e costs to o b tain or fulfil a contract w ith a customer. The g r oup will adopt this standa r d from 1 J u ly 2018. It i s not expec t ed to significantly impa c t the financial stateme n ts on the b a sis that most o f the group's revenue i s recognise d at the time of transacti o n with the customer which represen t s the satisf a ction of the p r imary performance obligation.

AAS B 16 Leases

This s tandard is a pplicable to annual reporting period s beginning o n or after 1 January 20 1 9. The stan d ard replac e s AASB 117 ‘ L eases’ and f or lessees w ill eliminate the classifi c ations of op e rating leas e s and finan c e leases. S u bject to ex c eptions, a ‘rig h t-of-use’ a s set will be capitalised in the statement of fin a ncial positi o n, measur e d as the present valu e of the unav o idable futur e lease pa y ments to b e made ove r the lease t erm. The exceptions r e late to sho r t-term leas e s of 12 mont h s or less a nd leases of low-valu e assets (s u ch as per s onal comp u ters and s m all office f urniture) w h ere an acco u nting policy choice exist s whereby e i ther a ‘right - of-use’ ass e t is recogni s ed or lease payments a r e expensed to profit or lo s s as incur r ed. A liabi l ity corresp o nding to t h e capitalis e d lease will also be r ecognised, adjusted f o r lease prepayments, lea s e incentive s received, initial direct c osts incurr e d and an e s timate of a n y future re s toration, re m oval or dism a ntling costs. Straight-line operating lease expe n se recogni t ion will be r eplaced with a depreci a tion charg e for the lease d asset (included in op e rating costs) and an interest expen s e on the r e cognised lease liability (included in finance costs ) . In the earlier periods of the leas e , the expen s es associa t ed with the lease under AASB 16 w ill be high e r when comp a red to lea s e expense s under AA S B 117. H o wever EBI T DA (Earnings Before Interest, Ta x , Depreciation and Amor t isation) res u lts will be i m proved as t he operatin g expense i s replaced b y interest e x pense and d epreciation in profit or loss under AA S B 16. For c lassificatio n within the s tatement o f cash flows, the lease p ayments w i ll be separ a ted into both a principal (financing acti v ities) and i n terest (eith e r operating o r financing a ctivities) component. F o r lessor accounting, the s t andard doe s not substantially chan g e how a le s sor accoun t s for lease s . The grou p will adopt t his standar d from 1 July 2 019 but the impact of it s adoption h a s been ass e ssed to onl y impact cla s sification of assets, liab i lities and e x penses, no le n ding impact or covenan t impact exp e cted to occ u r.

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The p reparation o f the financial stateme n ts requires m anagement to make j u dgements, e stimates a n d assumpti o ns that affect the reporte d amounts in the financi a l statement s . Managem e nt continually evaluates its judgements and esti m ates in relati o n to assets, liabilities, c ontingent li a bilities, rev e nue and e x penses. M a nagement b ases its ju d gements, e s timates and a ssumption s on histori c al experie n ce and on other vari o us factors , including expectation s of future events, management beli e ves to be r e asonable u n der the cir c umstances. The resulti n g accountin g judgemen t s and estim a tes will seldo m equal the related actu a l results. T h e judgeme n ts, estimate s and assu m ptions that h ave a signi f icant risk of causing a ma t erial adjust m ent to the carrying a m ounts of a s sets and liabilities (ref e r to the respective no t es) within t he next finan c ial year are discussed b e low.

Shar e -based pay m ent transa c tions

The g roup meas u res the cost of equity- s ettled trans a ctions with employees by referenc e to the fair value of th e equity instru m ents at th e date at w h ich they ar e granted. T he fair value is determ i ned by usi n g either th e Binomial or BlackScholes model, d e pending o n the equity- s ettled trans a ction, and t akes into a c count the t e rms and conditions up o n which the in s truments were granted. The accou n ting estimates and assumptions rel a ting to equity-settled sh a re-based p a yments would have no i m pact on th e carrying a m ounts of a s sets and li a bilities within the next a nnual repo r ting period b ut may impa c t profit or lo s s and equit y .

Good w ill

The g roup tests a nnually, or m ore freque n tly if event s or changes in circumst a nces indic a te impairment, whether g oodwill has s uffered an y impairmen t , in accor d ance with t he stated a ccounting p olicy. The recoverable amounts o f cashgene r ating units have been determined based on value-in-us e calculatio n s. These c alculations require the use of assu m ptions, incl u ding estim a ted discou n t rates bas e d on the c u rrent cost o f capital an d growth ra t es of the e s timated future cash flows.

Inco m e tax

The g roup is su b ject to inc o me taxes in the juris d ictions in w hich it ope r ates. Signi f icant judge m ent is required in deter m ining the p rovision for income tax. There are many trans a ctions and calculations undertaken during the o rdinary cours e of business for which t he ultimate t ax determi n ation is unc e rtain. The g roup recog n ises liabiliti e s for anticip a ted tax audit issues based on the gr o up's curren t understan d ing of the t a x law. Where the final t ax outcom e of these m a tters is differ e nt from the carrying a m ounts, such differences will impact the current and deferre d tax provisions in the p eriod in which such deter m ination is m ade. Refer t o Note 7 for further details.

Reco v ery of defe r red tax ass e ts Defer r ed tax ass e ts are reco g nised for t a x losses a n d deductibl e temporary differences only if the g roup consi d ers it is probable that futu r e taxable a m ounts will b e available t o utilise tho s e temporar y differences and losses.

Acco u nting policy for income t ax

Inco m e tax for th e period is t h e tax paya b le on that p eriod's taxable income b ased on th e applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by changes in deferred t a x attributable to tempo r ary differen c es, unused tax losses and the adjus t ment recog n ised for pri o r periods, where applicable.

Note 7. Income tax benefit (continued)

Acco u nting policy for deferred tax Defer r ed tax ass e ts and liabilities are re c ognised for temporary d ifferences a t the tax ra t es expecte d to apply w hen the asset s are recov e red or liabilities are set t led, except for (i) when the deferred tax asset or liability arises from t h e initial recognition of go o dwill or an a sset or liabi l ity in a tran s action that i s not a busi n ess combination and th a t, at the ti m e of the trans a ction, affec t s neither th e accountin g nor taxabl e profits; or ( ii) when th e taxable te m porary diff e rence is as s ociated with i n terests in s u bsidiaries, a ssociates o r joint ventu r es, and the t iming of the reversal ca n be controll e d and it is p robable that t h e temporar y difference w ill not reve r se in the for e seeable future.

Defer r ed tax ass e ts are reco g nised for d e ductible te m porary diff e rences and unused tax losses only if it is prob a ble that future taxable a m ounts will be availabl e to utilise t hose temp o rary differences and l o sses. The carrying a m ount of recognised and unrecognised deferred ta x assets ar e reviewed e ach reporti n g date. Def e rred tax as s ets recogn i sed are reduced to the ex t ent that it i s no longer p robable tha t future taxa b le profits w i ll be availa b le for the c a rrying amo u nt to be recov e red. Previo u sly unreco g nised defer r ed tax asse t s are recog n ised to the e xtent that it is probable that there a r e future taxab l e profits av a ilable to rec o ver the asset.

Defer r ed tax ass e ts and liabil i ties are off s et only whe r e there is a legally enf o rceable right to offset a n d they rela t e to the same taxable aut h ority on either the same taxable enti t y or differe n t taxable en t ities which intend to set t le simultan e ously.

Tax c o nsolidated g roup TopB e tta Holdings Limited (t h e 'head entity') and its wholly-owned Australi a n subsidiaries have for m ed an inc o me tax cons o lidated group ('tax grou p ') under th e tax consoli d ation regi m e. Each entity in the ta x group continues to ac c ount for their o wn current and deferre d tax amounts. The tax g roup has a p plied the 'group allocation' approac h in determi n ing the appropriate amo u nt of taxes to allocate to group members. In addition to its own tax amounts, t h e head en t ity also recognises the ta x arising fro m unused ta x losses and tax credits a ssumed fro m each subsidiary in the t ax group.

Asset s or liabilitie s arising un d er tax funding agreem e nts are rec o gnised as a mounts rec e ivable from or payable to other entiti e s in the tax group. The t ax funding a rrangement ensures th a t the intercompany char g e equals the current ta x liability or benefit of eac h tax group member, r e sulting in n either a contribution b y the head e ntity to th e subsidiaries nor a distri b ution by the subsidiarie s to the head entity.

Impai r ment of rec e ivables The group has no t recognised an impairm e nt of receiv a bles in pro f it or loss for the year en d ed 30 June 2017 (2016: Nil).

Receivables are n either past d ue nor imp a ired.

Acco u nting policy for trade an d other rece i vables Trad e receivable s are initially recognised at fair valu e and subs e quently me a sured at a m ortised cos t using the e ffective intere s t method, l e ss any pro v ision for im p airment. Tr a de receivab l es are generally due for settlement w ithin 30 da y s.

Colle c tability of tr a de receiva b les is revie w ed on an o n going basi s . Debts whi c h are know n to be unc o llectable ar e written off b y reducing t h e carrying amount dir e ctly. A pro v ision for i m pairment o f trade rece i vables is r a ised when there is objec t ive evidence that the g roup will not be able to collect a l l amounts d ue accordi n g to the original term s of the recei v ables. The amount of t he impairm e nt allowan c e is the di f ference bet w een the a s set's carrying amount and the present value of e stimated future cash flo w s, discoun t ed at the or i ginal effecti v e interest r a te. Cash fl o ws relating t o shortterm r eceivables a re not disc o unted if the e ffect of dis c ounting is i m material.

Other receivables are recogni s ed at amortised cost, le s s any provi s ion for imp a irment.

Acco u nting policy loans and r e ceivables Loan s and receiv a bles are n o n-derivative financial a s sets with fi x ed or deter m inable pay m ents that a re not quot e d in an activ e market. T h ey are initi a lly measur e d at fair va l ue and subsequently c a rried at a m ortised cos t using the e ffective intere s t rate meth o d. Gains a n d losses ar e recognised in profit or l o ss when th e asset is derecognised o r impaired.

Note 10. Non-current assets - investments accounted for using the equity method

On 2 9 March 2016, the co m pany acquired 12.5% o f the equity of Moder n Wagering Systems P t y. Ltd. ('M W S') for $250,000, of whi c h $150,00 0 was paid and $100, 0 00 remained unpaid a t 30 June 2 016. MWS creates white-label soluti o ns for pooli n g event an d wagering i n formation b e tween wag e ring operat o rs.

On 2 4 May 201 7 , The Glob a l Tote Limited ('TGT") completed its agreement with MWS regarding the granting of an exclu s ive licence. MWS has granted to T GT an irre v ocable, pe r petual, roy a lty free licence to use the MWS’s existing wage r ing technol o gies on an e xclusive basis for the fi r st two year s of the lice n ce and ther e after, on a n on-exclusi v e basis.

Note 10. Non-current assets - investments accounted for using the equity method (continued)

Acco u nting policy for associat e s Asso c iates are e n tities over which the g roup has significant in f luence but not control or joint control. Invest m ents in asso c iates are a c counted for using the e q uity metho d . Under the equity met h od, the share of the pr o fits or loss e s of the asso c iate is reco g nised in pr o fit or loss and the shar e of the mo v ements in e quity is rec o gnised in other compr e hensive inco m e. Investments in assoc i ates are ca r ried in the s t atement of f inancial position at cost plus post-a c quisition ch a nges in the g r oup's share of net asset s of the ass o ciate. Goodwill relating t o the associate is inclu d ed in the carrying amou n t of the inves t ment and is neither amortised n o r individually tested f o r impairme n t. Dividends received or receiva b le from asso c iates reduc e the carryin g amount of t he investm e nt.

Whe n the group's share of lo s ses in an a s sociate eq u als or exce e ds its interest in the as s ociate, incl u ding any un s ecured long-term receiva b les, the group does not recognise f u rther losses, unless it h a s incurred o bligations o r made pay m ents on behal f of the associate.

The g roup disco n tinues the use of the equity met h od upon the loss of s i gnificant in f luence ove r the associ a te and recognises any r e tained inve s tment at its fair value. A ny differenc e between t h e associat e 's carrying a mount, fair v alue of the retained inves t ment and p r oceeds fro m disposal is recognised in profit or l o ss.

The c ompany ha s impaired t he goodwill on the co n tent busine s s by $1,8 0 2,453 due t o insufficie n t cash flo w s being gene r ated to sup p ort its carrying value.

The r e coverable a mount of the group's g o odwill has b een determined by val u e-in-use calculations using discount e d cash flow m odels, bas e d on a one year projec t ion period a pproved by manageme n t and extra p olated for a further thr e e years using a steady rate, together w ith a termin a l value.

Key assumptions are those to which the r e coverable amount of an asset or ca s h-generatin g units is m o st sensitive.

The f o llowing key assumption s were used in the disco u nted cash f l ow model f o r the tourna m ents and w agering divi s ion: (a) 1 7 .5% (2016:17.5%) pre-t a x discount r a te; (b) te r minal value of 6.5x previous year’s E arnings, Be f ore Interest, Tax, Depr e ciation and A mortisation ('EBITDA'); (c) 3 % (2016: 3% ) per annum increase in e mployee b e nefits expe n se; and (d) re v enue growth at 80% of manageme n t’s forecast f or financial y ear to 30 J u ne 2018 w h ich would r e sult in a do u bling of activ e users in the coming y e ar and con t inuing at a steady pac e in subseq u ent years. For the peri o d April-June 2017, quart e rly-active s u bscribers ( a cross all s e rvices) wer e 9,093. Fo r the period July 2017- J une 2018, r evenue pe r user is modelled to incre a se by 2% c o mpared to t he average r evenue per active user d uring the p e riod April-J u ne 2017.

The d iscount rat e of 17.5% p re-tax reflects management’s con s ervative es t imate of th e time valu e of money and the group's weighted a verage cost of capital a djusted for t h e risk free r ate and the volatility of the share pri c e relative t o market move m ents.

The B oard believ e s the proje c ted revenu e growth rate is prudent a nd justified, based on t h e combinati o n of curren t growth rates and planne d product int r oductions.

Note 12. Non-current assets - intangibles (continued)

Sens i tivity analys i s

As di s closed in n o te 3, the dir e ctors have m ade judge m ents and e s timates ab o ut the futur e in respect o f impairment testing of go o dwill. Should these judgements an d estimates not occur a s approxim a ted, the re s ulting good w ill carrying amount may d ecrease. T h e sensitiviti e s of the car r ying value of goodwill to such judge m ents and e s timates are as follows: Eithe r revenue p e r user, or the numbe r of users, would need to decrea s e by 25% in cash flo w modelling for the Tour n ament and W agering di v ision before goodwill would become impaired, with all other a ssumptions remaining c o nstant.

The B oard believ e s that other reasonable changes in t he key ass u mptions on which the r e coverable amount of goodwill is base d would not c ause the re c overable a m ount to fall b elow the c a rrying amount.

Acco u nting policy for goodwill Good w ill arises o n the acquisition of a business. G oodwill is n ot amortis e d. Instead, goodwill is tested ann u ally for impai r ment, or m o re frequently if events o r changes in circumsta n ces indicat e that it mig h t be impair e d, and is c a rried at cost l ess accum u lated impairment loss e s. Impairment losses on goodwill are taken to profit o r loss and are not subs e quently rev e rsed.

Licen c e Significant costs associated w ith licence are deferr e d and amortised on a straight-lin e basis over the period of their expe c ted benefit, being their finite life of 5 years. Refe r to Note 10 f or further d e tails.

Bran d s

The M ad Bookie b rand name acquired in the business combinati o ns and has an indefinit e life which w ill be asse s sed for impai r ment.

Acco u nting policy for impairm e nt of other n on-financia l assets Other non-financi a l assets ar e reviewed f or impairm e nt whenev e r events or changes in circumstan c es indicate that the carryi n g amount m ay not be r ecoverable. An impair m ent loss is r ecognised f o r the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds i t s recovera b le amount.

Reco v erable amount is the hi g her of an a sset's fair v a lue less co s ts of dispo s al and valu e -in-use. Th e value-in-u s e is the present value of t h e estimate d future cas h flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax disc o unt rate sp e cific to the a sset or cash- g enerating u nit to which the asset b e longs. Ass e ts that do n o t have ind e pendent ca s h flows are grouped to g ether to form a cash-gene r ating unit.

Wagering risk

The group faces w agering ris k as part of i t s wagering b usiness. T h is risk is co n trolled by s e tting limitations on the a mounts that clients may w in each da y , and, in ca s es that an exposure is deemed to o great or to o likely acc o rding to the group’s procedures and s y stems, that exposure is laid-off to other bookma k ers.

Ther e were no transfers betw e en levels d u ring the fin a ncial year.

The c arrying amounts of trad e and other r eceivables a nd trade a n d other pa y ables are a s sumed to approximate t heir fair value s due to thei r short-term nature.

The f a ir value of f inancial lia b ilities is esti m ated by di s counting th e remaining contractual maturities a t the curren t market intere s t rate that i s available f o r similar fin a ncial liabilities.

Acco u nting policy for fair valu e measurem e nt Whe n an asset o r liability, fin a ncial or no n -financial, i s measured at fair valu e for recognition or discl o sure purpo s es, the fair v a lue is base d on the pric e that would be received to sell an a s set or paid t o transfer a liability in a n orderly tra n saction betw e en market p articipants at the mea s urement d a te; and assumes that t h e transacti o n will take place eithe r : in the princi p al market; o r in the abs e nce of a principal mark e t, in the mo s t advantag e ous market.

Fair v alue is me a sured usin g the assu m ptions that market par t icipants would use wh e n pricing t h e asset or liability, assu m ing they a c t in their ec o nomic bes t interests. F or non-fina n cial assets, the fair val u e measure m ent is bas e d on its highe s t and best use. Valuation techniq u es that are appropriate in the circ u mstances and for whic h sufficient d ata are avail a ble to mea s ure fair val u e, are use d , maximising the use of relevant o b servable inputs and m i nimising th e use of unob s ervable inp u ts.

Asset s and liabili t ies measur e d at fair value are clas s ified, into t h ree levels, u sing a fair v alue hierar c hy that refl e cts the significance of th e inputs us e d in makin g the meas u rements. C lassification s are revie w ed at each reporting date and transfers betwee n levels are d etermined b ased on a r eassessme n t of the low e st level of i n put that is s ignificant t o the fair value measurement.

For r e curring and non-recurri n g fair value measurem e nts, extern a l valuers m a y be used w hen intern a l expertise is either not a v ailable or when the val u ation is deemed to be s i gnificant. E x ternal valu e rs are selec t ed based o n market kn o wledge and r e putation. W here there is a signific a nt change in fair value of an asset or liability from one p e riod to another, an analy s is is undertaken, which includes a v erification o f the major inputs appli e d in the lat e st valuatio n and a comparison, wher e applicable, with extern a l sources of data.

Acco u nting policy for busines s combinatio n s The a cquisition m ethod of a ccounting is used to a ccount for business c ombination s regardles s of whethe r equity instru m ents or ot h er assets ar e acquired.

The c onsideratio n transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date f air values o f the asset s transferred, equity inst r uments issue d or liabilitie s incurred b y the acquirer to former o wners of th e acquiree a n d the amount of any no n -controlling interest in the acquiree. F o r each business combi n ation, the n o n-controllin g interest in the acquire e is measured at either f a ir value or at the proporti o nate share of the acq u iree's identi f iable net a s sets. All ac q uisition co s ts are expensed as incurred to profit or loss.

On the acquisitio n of a busin e ss, the gro u p assesses the financial assets acquired and li a bilities assumed for ap p ropriate classi f ication and designatio n in accordance with th e contractu a l terms, ec o nomic con d itions, the g roup's ope r ating or acco u nting policies and other pertinent co n ditions in e x istence at t h e acquisitio n -date.

Wher e the busin e ss combin a tion is achi e ved in stages, the gro u p remeasu r es its previ o usly held e quity intere s t in the acqui r ee at the a c quisition-d a te fair valu e and the dif f erence bet w een the fai r value and the previou s carrying a m ount is recognised in pro f it or loss.

Conti n gent consi d eration to b e transferr e d by the a c quirer is re c ognised at the acquisition-date fai r value. Sub s equent chan g es in the f a ir value of t h e continge n t considera t ion classifi e d as an as s et or liabilit y is recogni s ed in profit or loss.

If the consideration tran s ferred and the pre-exist i ng fair valu e is less tha n the fair value of the identifiable net a s sets acquired, being a bargain pur c hase to th e acquirer, t h e differenc e is recogni s ed as a gain d irectly in pr o fit or loss b y the acquir e r on the ac q uisition-dat e , but only a fter a reass e ssment of t h e identifica t ion and meas u rement of t he net asse t s acquired, the non-co n trolling inte r est in the a c quiree, if a n y, the cons i deration tra n sferred and t h e acquirer's previously h eld equity i n terest in th e acquirer.

Note 33. Share-based payments (continued)

The cost of equit y -settled tran s actions are measured a t fair value o n grant dat e . Fair value is independently deter m ined for each option granted using either the Bi n omial or Black-Schole s option pri c ing model, as appropriate, that ta k es into acco u nt the exer c ise price, the term of th e option, th e impact of d ilution, the s hare price a t grant date and expect e d price volatility of the u n derlying sh a re, the ex p ected divid e nd yield a n d the risk f r ee interest rate for the term of th e option, toget h er with no n -vesting conditions that do not d e termine wh e ther the g r oup receiv e s the services that entitle the empl o yees to rec e ive payment. No accou n t is taken o f any other v e sting condi t ions.

The c ost of equit y -settled tra n sactions a r e recognised as an ex p ense with a correspon d ing increas e in equity o ver the vesti n g period. T h e cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculat e d based o n the grant d ate fair val u e of the a w ard, the best e stimate of t he number o f awards t h at are likel y to vest an d the expire d portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in pro f it or loss fo r the period is the cumul a tive amoun t calculated a t each rep o rting date l e ss amounts already recognised in pre v ious period s .

Mark e t conditions are taken i n to consider a tion in dete r mining fair v alue. There f ore any aw a rds subject t o market c o nditions are c o nsidered to vest irresp e ctive of wh e ther or not t h at market c ondition ha s been met, provided all other condit i ons are satisfied.

If equity-settled a w ards are m odified, as a minimum a n expense i s recognise d as if the m odification h as not bee n made. An a d ditional expense is rec o gnised, ov e r the remai n ing vesting period, for a ny modific a tion that in c reases the t otal fair value of the share-based com p ensation b e nefit as at t h e date of m o dification.

If the non-vesting condition is within the c o ntrol of the group or e m ployee, the f ailure to sa t isfy the con d ition is trea t ed as a canc e llation. If th e condition i s not within t h e control of the group or employee a nd is not s a tisfied durin g the vestin g period, any r e maining ex p ense for th e award is re c ognised ov e r the remai n ing vesting period, unle s s the awar d is forfeited.

If eq u ity-settled a wards are c ancelled, it is treated a s if it has v ested on t h e date of c ancellation, and any remaining expe n se is recog n ised imme d iately. If a new replace m ent award i s substitute d for the cancelled awar d , the cancelled and new a ward is trea t ed as if the y were a mo d ification.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF TOPBETTA HOLDINGS LIMITED

Report on the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial report of TopBetta Holdings Limited (the company), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the company and the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

In our opinion, the financial report of TopBetta Holdings Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

  • i) Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and

  • ii) 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 Responsibility section of our report.

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

Independence

We are independent of the consolidated entity in accordance with 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.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

Key Audit Matters (cont’d)

1. Impairment testing of goodwill and other intangible assets

Why significant

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

As disclosed in note 12, the Group has goodwill and other intangible assets of $5.8m as at 30 June 2017.

At the end of each reporting period, the Group is required to determine whether there is any indication that the intangible assets are impaired under Australian Accounting Standard (AASB) 136 Impairment of Assets.

An asset is considered impaired if its carrying value is greater than its recoverable amount. The Group uses the “value-in-use” methodology in determining the recoverable amount which measures the present value of future cashflows expected to be derived from these assets.

The evaluation of the recoverable amount requires the Group to exercise significant judgment in determining key assumptions, which include:

  • 5-year cash flow forecast;

  • Terminal growth factor; and

As part of our procedures we assessed the Group’s determination of Cash Generating Units (CGUs). Our procedures included but were not limited to:

  • to assessing and challenging:

    • the assumptions supporting the number of cash generating units being appropriate;

    • the accuracy of the FY18 budget approved by the Board by comparing the budget to FY17 actuals;

    • the assumptions used for the future growth rate by comparing normalised average growth rate from FY16 to FY17 to the growth rate adopted in the impairment model;

    • the key assumptions for long term growth in the forecast cash flows by comparing them to historical results and industry forecasts; and

    • the discount rate applied by comparing the Weighted Average Cost of Capital to industry benchmarks.

  • Discount rate.

The outcome of the impairment assessment could vary if different assumptions were applied. As a result, the evaluation of the recoverable amount of intangible assets including goodwill is a Key Audit Matter.

  • testing, on a sample basis, the mathematical accuracy of the cash flow models;

  • agreeing inputs in the cash flow models to relevant data including approved budgets and latest forecasts;

  • reviewing management’s sensitivity analysis in relation to key assumptions including discount rate, growth rate and terminal value; and

  • we assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures including those relating to sensitivities in the assumptions used, included in Note 12.

Based on these procedures, goodwill relating to the content business was considered impaired during the financial year and an impairment expense of $1.8m was duly recorded.

54

Key Audit Matters (cont’d)

2. Acquisition of Mad Bookie business

Why significant

The Group entered into an agreement with Mad Bookie Pty Ltd on 1 May 2017 to acquire the Mad Bookie business.

The consideration payable by the Group consisted of an upfront payment of $100,000 and deferred consideration dependent on net gaming revenue derived in the first 12 months after acquisition.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Our procedures included but were not limited to:

  • reviewing the contract for sale and confirming the acquisition date, the identification of an acquirer and the entity being acquired under AASB 3;

  • assessing and challenging:

AASB 3 Business Combinations requires the Group to recognise and measure the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed with any resulting goodwill resulting from the Mad Bookie transaction.

The assessment of consideration payable and the fair value of assets and liabilities assumed could vary if different assumptions were applied.

This transaction is material to the understanding of the 30 June 2017 financial statements and accordingly is considered to be a Key Audit Matter.

  • the assumptions used to assess fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed;

  • the assumptions used to estimate the consideration payable;

  • ensuring goodwill and other intangibles have been correctly calculated;

We have also assessed the appropriateness of the discourses included in Note 28 in respect of the business acquisition.

3. Recognition and Valuation of Deferred Tax Assets

Why significant

As disclosed in Note 13 of the financial report, at 30 June 2017 the Group has recorded a deferred tax asset of $3.602m relating to deductible temporary differences and tax losses incurred.

As noted in Note 3 of the financial report, deferred tax assets are only recognised if the Group considers it probable that future taxable income will be generated to utilise these temporary differences and losses.

Significant judgement is required in forecasting future taxable income.

Based on the above, we have considered the recognition and valuation of deferred tax assets to be a Key Audit Matter.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

We have assessed and challenged management’s judgements relating to the Group’s forecasts and the ability to generate future taxable income, and also the recognition criteria under AASB 112.

Our procedures included but were not limited to:

  • ensuring the consistency of these forecasts to the Board approved budget used in the impairment testing;

  • the reasonableness of key assumptions used in the forecasts with respect to income and expenditure;

  • testing, on a sample basis, the mathematical accuracy of the cash flow models;

  • reviewing the nature of the deferred tax asset (i.e. temporary differences or revenue / capital losses) and its probability of being realised.

We have also assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures included in Note 13 in respect of the deferred tax balances.

55

Key Audit Matters (cont’d)

4. Regulatory Compliance

Why significant

The Group operates in a highly regulated environment and holds a bookmaker licence in the Northern Territory, Australia (issued 11 August 2016) and an eGambling license in Alderney, United Kingdom (issued 3 November 2016).

Each licence has terms and conditions and reporting requirements. Compliance with these requirements is critical for the Group’s operations as the suspension or cancellation of these licences would have a material adverse impact on its ability to operate.

Based on the above, we have considered compliance with the licenses to be a Key Audit Matter.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

We have reviewed the following in relation to the licences:

  • the terms and conditions associated with both the NT and Alderney license;

  • held discussions with management to assess compliance procedures;

  • reviewed on a sample basis, the reporting documentation submitted to regulators and information prepared by management as reported to the Board;

  • reviewed correspondence with the licencing authorities to ensure that any potential complaints or issues have been managed in a timely manner; and

  • obtained a solicitors’ representation letters to ensure that there are no ongoing legal matters.

5. Acquisition of License

Why significant

On the 24 May 2017, the Group entered into an agreement with MWS Pty Limited and Live Data Datacast Pty Limited to acquire a perpetual and irrevocable software license.

The consideration paid by the Group was $1,010,315 which included the issuance of 3.5m Topbetta shares.

In accordance with AASB 138 Intangible Assets, the license has been capitalised as an intangible asset as disclosed in Note 12.

AASB 138 requires the amortisation of the license over its useful life. Management have estimated the useful life of the asset to be five years in consideration of the license’s nature.

This transaction is material to the understanding of the 30 June 2017 financial statements and accordingly is considered to be a Key Audit Matter.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

We have reviewed the following in relation to the licence acquisition:

  • Obtained and reviewed the contract regarding the license;

  • Assessed and challenged management’s judgements regarding the quantum of consideration paid and ensure this has been appropriately capitalised;

  • Assessed and challenged management’s judgements regarding the asset’s useful life;

  • Ensured an appropriate level of amortisation expense was recorded in the year ended 30 June 2017.

We have also assessed the appropriateness of the related disclosures in Note 12.

Key Audit Matters (cont’d)

6. Funding & Liquidity

Why significant

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

While the Group recorded cash at bank at 30 June 2017 of $3,267,188, the Group’s net cash outflows from operating activities totalled $6,132,317 for the year then ended.

The Group has also disclosed in note 2 (Going Concern) that further capital may be required to meet the Group’s near and long-term plans.

The going concern assumption is pervasive to the preparation of the 30 June 2017 financial statements and accordingly is considered to be a Key Audit Matter.

We evaluated the Group’s funding and liquidity position at 30 June 2017 and the ability of the Group to repay its debts as and when they fall due for a minimum of 12 months from the date of signing the financial report.

In order to assess the funding and liquidity position, we:

  • reviewed the process undertaken to determine the appropriateness of the use of the going concern basis;

  • reviewed Board approved forecasts;

  • reviewed the funding plan for the Group to achieve its future operational and program development needs; and

  • obtained external confirmation of the Group’s cash and short-term deposits.

Other Information

Other information is financial and non-financial information in the annual report of the Group which is provided in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor’s Report. The directors are responsible for Other Information in the annual report.

The Other Information we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report was the Director’s report. The remaining Other Information is expected to be made available to us after the date of the Auditor’s Report.

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, the auditor does not and will not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report.

In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other Information. In doing so, we 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.

We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other Information in the Financial Report and based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we obtained prior the date of this Auditor’s Report we have nothing to report.

Directors’ Responsibilities 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.

57

Directors’ Responsibilities for the Financial Report (cont’d)

In Note 1, the Directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.

In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using a going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the consolidated entity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue and 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 Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individual or in 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 Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report.

The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view 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 entity’s internal control.

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.

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We 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 consolidated entity’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 consolidated entity to cease to continue as a going concern.

We 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.

We obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the consolidated entity to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the 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.

58

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report (cont’d)

The Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements. 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 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.
