EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of the board I am delighted to present to you ClearVue Technologies Limited (“ClearVue”) Annual Report for the period ended 30 June 2018.

ClearVue is an Australian technology company that operates in the Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BPIV) sector which involves the integration of solar technology into glass and building surfaces. Specifically, ClearVue has developed advanced glass technology that preserves glass transparency to maintain building aesthetics whilst generating electricity from windows. Solar PV cells are incorporated around the edges of an Insulated Glass Unit (IGU) used in windows and the lamination interlayer between the glass in the IGU incorporates ClearVue’s patented proprietary nano and micro particles, as well as its spectrally selective coating on the rear external surface of the IGU.

During the last twelve months, and more particularly since ClearVue listed on the Australian Securities Exchange on 25 May 2018, the company has successfully moved forward on multiple fronts including inthe technical, commercial, Intellectual Property (IP) and corporate and financial aspects to its business, all being required for the successful market entry of its world leading advanced solar PV windows and glazing.

Highlights during the past 12 months

  • ClearVue successfully raised $5,000,000 in May 2018 as part of its Initial Public Offering (IPO);

  • ClearVue signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Mirreco to develop carbon-negative residential and commercial solutions that incorporate ClearVue’s solar window technology and Mirreco’s industrial hemp building materials to create eco-friendly structures;

  • ClearVue moved away from dependence on its specifically designed window frames by developing industry standard format Insulated Glass Unit (IGU) window modules for use in multi-vendor window framing solutions; and

  • ClearVue’s IP and technology development portfolio has continued to expand – some earlier filed patents are now being granted and issued in different countries around the world.

We finished the year in a strong position with positive momentum.

Future Developments

Post year-end, the company announced that it has successfully completed standards testing for its solar window in both Australia and for the European Union and has also completed standards testing for its curtain-wall (building façade) product for Australia and New Zealand.

The company is very much looking forward to the upcoming launch of its products at the Fenestration conference in Port Douglas, Queensland, Glasstec 2018 in Germany in October 2018 and GreenBuild in Chicago in November 2018 when the ClearVue technology and its commercial-ready products will be revealed to the wider world. We think this will be a major turning point for the company.

The company is looking forward to the year ahead and progressing its commercialisation goals, along with its technology and business development plans.

We are excited about the year ahead and delivering on our stated objectives and sharing our continued success with you.

CLEARVUE TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED ABN 45 071 397 487

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (CONTINUED)

Non-executive Director Remuneration

The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain Directors of the highest 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 Constitution states that the Company may pay to the Non-Executive Directors a maximum total amount of director's fees, determined by the Company in general meeting, or until so determined, as the Directors resolve. Fees for the Non-Executive Directors’ are presently set at $350,000 per annum including superannuation. These fees cover main board activities only. Non-Executive Directors may receive additional remuneration for other services provided to the Company.

The Non-Executive salary remuneration became effective from the date of the appointment of the Company to the Official List of the Australian Securities Exchange.

Executive Remuneration

The Company’s remuneration policy is to provide a fixed remuneration component and a short and long term performance based component. The Board believes that this remuneration policy is appropriate given the considerations discussed in the section above and is appropriate in aligning executives’ objectives with shareholder and business objectives.

Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration consists of base salaries, as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds and other non-cash benefits. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board. The process consists of a review of company and individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration externally and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices.

Performance Based Remuneration – Short Term Incentive

The Board has not implemented a system where Executives are entitled to annual cash bonuses. The Company may provide pay performance bonuses to Executives as determined by the Board from time to time. No bonuses were paid or are payable in relation to the 2018 financial year.

Performance Based Remuneration – Long Term Incentive

Company Performance Shares and Options

The Board has previously chosen to issue Performance Shares (where appropriate) to some executives as a key component of the incentive portion of their remuneration, in order to attract and retain the services of the executives and to provide an incentive linked to the performance of the Company.

In the future the Board may grant Options to executives and key consultants to provide incentive based remuneration, with exercise prices at and/or above market share price (at the time of agreement). As such, Incentive Options granted to executives will generally only be of benefit if the executives perform to the level whereby the value of the Company increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the Incentive Options granted. it is considered the performance of the executives and the performance and value of the Company are closely related.

The Company prohibits executives entering into arrangements to limit their exposure to Performance Shares or Incentive Options granted as part of their remuneration package.

Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Shareholder Wealth and Earnings

The Board anticipates that the Company will retain earnings (if any) and other cash resources for the development of its business activities. The Company does not currently have a policy with respect to the payment of dividends and returns of capital however this will be reviewed on an annual basis. Therefore, there was no relationship between the Board’s policy for determining, or in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP and dividends paid and returns of capital by the Company during the current and previous four financial years.

The Company did not consider appreciation of the Company’s shares when setting remuneration.

The Board did issue Performance Shares to Key Management Personnel and has implemented a Loan Funded Share Plan which will generally be of value if the Company’s shares appreciate over time. However, it should be noted that all Director Shares granted under the Loan Funded Share Plan and all Performance Shares have been imposed in escrow (sale) restriction period of up to two years. This is in line with the Company policy that Company securities be used for long term incentive for Directors.

CLEARVUE TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED ABN 45 071 397 487 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

These notes form an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial report:

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION AND STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

The consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 , Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board.

The financial report covers Clearvue Technologies Limited (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“Group”). The Company is a Company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia, whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Stock Exchange. The address of its registered office and its principal place of business is 16 Ord Street, West Perth, WA 6005, Australia.

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of Directors, on 31 August 2018. The Directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the economic entity in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

2.1) BASIS OF PREPARATION

Reporting Basis and Conventions

The financial report has been prepared on an accrual basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, and financial assets and financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.

Compliance with IFRS

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

2.2) PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Plant and equipment is initially recorded at the cost of acquisition or fair value less, if applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Plant and equipment that has been contributed at no cost, or for nominal cost, is valued and recognised at the fair value of the asset at the date it is acquired. The plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure that the carrying amount is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the utilisation of the assets and the subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in estimating recoverable amounts.

23

CLEARVUE TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED ABN 45 071 397 487 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

2.2) PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (CONT’D)

Depreciation is computed on a diminishing value basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Furniture 10% - 15%
Office equipment 28% - 33.3%
Machinery 13% - 15%

The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each financial year to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of plant and equipment.

An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss on derecognition of the asset is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.

2.3) INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured initially at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following intimal acquisition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is reflected in profit or loss in the year in which the expenditure us incurred.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assesses as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortised over the estimated useful lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least as each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognised in profit or loss in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives or not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if the events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. Such intangible assets are not amortised. The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is reviewed annually to determine whether the useful life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

CLEARVUE TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED ABN 45 071 397 487 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

2.3) INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CONT’D)

Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

  • a) Patents and Trademarks

During the year ended 30 June 2017, the Group has changed its accounting policy on patents and trademarks, from infinite to finite useful lives. Patents and trademark would be amortised over 20 years from the date of purchase. The change in accounting policy has been applied restrospectively in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards Board 101 (AASB) presentation of financial statements.

  • b) Research and Development

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Deferred development costs arising from development expenditures on individual projects are recognised as an intangible asset when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability benefits, the availability of resources to complete and the ability to measure reliably the expenditures during the development.

Following initial recognition of the deferred development costs as an intangible asset, it is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the intangible asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use.

2.4) FINANCIAL ASSETS

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are recognised when, and only when, The Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The Group determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as follows:

Loans and receivables

Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are decognised or impaired, and through the amortisation process.

Loans and receivables comprise other receivables, bank balances and loan receivables.

2.4) FINANCIAL ASSETS (CONT’D)

De-recognition

A financial asset is derecognised where the contractual right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired. On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.

2.5) IMPAIRMENT OF FINANCIAL ASSETS

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired.

Financial assets carried at amortised cost

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, The Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If The Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets carried at amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. If a loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

When the asset becomes uncollectible, the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced directly or if an amount was charged to the allowance account, the amounts charged to the allowance account are written off against the carrying value of the financial assets.

To determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets has been incurred; The Group considers factors such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay in payments.

If in a subsequent year, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.

2.6) FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are recognised when, and only when, The Group becomes a party to the contractual provision of the financial instrument. The Group determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus in the case of financial liabilities not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement

After initial recognition, financial liabilities that are not carried at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised, and through the amortisation process.

Such financial liabilities comprise trade and other payables.

De-recognition

A financial liability is de-recognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such as exchange or modification is treated as a de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

2.7) IMPAIRMENT OF NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS

At each reporting date, the directors review the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the assets fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the assets carrying value over its recoverable amount is recognised in profit or loss.

Impairment testing is performed annually for intangible assets with indefinite lives.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

2.8) PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when the entity has a legal or constructive obligation resulting from past events, for which it is probable that there will be an outflow of economic benefits and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are measured using the best estimate available of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

2.9) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.

2.10) REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers.

Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised upon the delivery of the services to customers.

Revenue from commissions is recognised upon delivery of services to customers.

Revenue from interest is recognised using the effective interest rate method.

Revenue from dividend is recognised when the entity has a right to receive the dividend.

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

2.11) GOODS AND SERVICE TAX (GST)

Transactions are recognised net of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

2.12) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Provision is made for the liability for employee entitlements arising from services rendered by employees to the end of each financial year. Employee entitlements expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amount expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee entitlements payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash out flows to be made for those entitlements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

2.13) INCOME TAX

The charge for current income tax expenses is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively enacted by the end of each financial year.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet 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 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 credited in profit and loss 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.

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 tax legislation and the anticipation that the economic 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.

2.14) GRANTS

Grant revenue is recognised in the income statement when the entity receives the grant, when it is probable that the entity will receive the economic benefits of the grant and the amount can be reliably measured.

If the grant has conditions attached which must be satisfied before the entity is eligible to receive the grant, the recognition of the revenue will be deferred until those conditions are satisfied.

Where the entity incurs an obligation to deliver economic value back to the grant contributor, the transaction is considered a reciprocal transaction and the revenue is recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position until the required service has been completed, otherwise the income is recognised on receipt.

The Group receives non-reciprocal contributions of assets from the government and other parties for a nominal of zero value. These assets are recognised at their fair value on the date of acquisition in the statement of financial position, with an equivalent amount of income recognised in the income statement.

Donations and bequests are recognised as revenue when received.

2.15) GOVERNMENT GRANTS

Government grants received are recognised as revenue on a basis to match the recognition of revenue with costs incurred in the project. The design, development and trials extend over a 5 year period and revenue from the government grant has been recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.

2.16) COMPARATIVE FIGURES

Where required by Accounting Standards comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with the changes in presentation for the current financial year.

2.17) CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

When preparing the financial report, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.

The management is of the opinion that there are no significant judgments made (other than those involving estimates) in applying accounting policies that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below. Actual results may be substantially different.

Impairment of intangible assets

Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever there is an indication that these assets may be impaired. The Group considers the guidance of AASB 136 in assessing whether there is any indication that an item of the above assets may be impaired. This assessment requires management’s judgement.

If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the assets is estimated to ascertain the amount of impairment loss. The recoverable amount is defined as the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and value in use.

In determining the value in use of assets, The Group applies a discounted cash flow model where the future cash flows derived from such assets are discounted at an appropriate rate. Forecasts of future cash flow are estimated based on financial budgets and forecasts approved by the management.

Based on management’s assessment, there is no indication of impairment as at the end of the reporting period.

Useful lives of intangible assets

The Group reviews the appropriateness of the useful lives and residual values of intangible assets at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could impact the economic useful lives and residual values of these assets. Where there is a material change in the useful lives and residual values of intangible assets, such a change may impact the future amortisation charge in the financial year in which the change arises.

2.18) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of ClearVue Technologies Limited ('company') as at 30 June 2018 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. The Group and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'.

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity 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. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the consolidated entity.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.

2.19) OPERATING SEGMENTS

Operating segments are presented using the ‘management approach, where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Board of Directors. They are responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.

  • (B) In the event that Class A Milestone 1 is not satisfied but the aggregate of the value of the ClearVue Orders and the ClearVue Payments is equal to or greater than $7,000,000 within a period of 36 months from the Listing Date (Class A Milestone 2), each Class A Performance Share will convert into one Share; or

  • (C) In the event that neither Class A Milestone 1 or Class A Milestone 2 is satisfied but the aggregate of the value of the ClearVue Orders and the ClearVue Payments is equal to or greater than $17,000,000 within a period of 48 months from the Listing Date, each Class A Performance Share will convert into one Share.

Class B Performance Shares

  • (A) In the event that the aggregate of the value of the ClearVue Orders and the ClearVue Payments is equal to or greater than $5,000,000 within a period of 24-36 months from the Listing Date (Class B Milestone 1), each Class B Performance Share will convert into one Share; or

  • (B) In the event that Class B Milestone 1 is not satisfied but the aggregate of the value of the ClearVue Orders and the ClearVue Payments is equal to or greater than $7,000,000 within a period of 36 months from the Listing Date (Class B Milestone 2), each Class B Performance Share will convert into one Share; or

  • (C) In the event that neither Class B Milestone 1 or Class B Milestone 2 is satisfied but the aggregate of the value of the ClearVue Orders and the ClearVue Payments is equal to or greater than $17,000,000 within a period of 48 months from the Listing Date, each Class B Performance Share will convert into one Share.
