Directors’ Report

for the half year ended 31 December 2015

Your directors submit their report, together with the financial statements of the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as “DataDot”) consisting of DataDot Technology Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of or during the half year ended 31 December 2015.

Directors

The directors of the Company at any time during or since the end of the half-year are as follows:-

Mr B Rathie (Executive Chairman) Mr G Flowers Ms A Coutts

Directors were in office for this entire period.

Principal activities

The principal activities of DataDot during the year were:-

(a) to manufacture and distribute asset identification solutions that include:-
(i) DataDotDNA® and CopDots® polymer and metallic microdots containing etched data that is unique to the assets to which the microdots are attached;
(ii) Asset Registers databases that record asset identification data and are accessible by law enforcement agencies and insurance investigators;
(b) to manufacture and distribute high security DataTraceID authentication solutions;
(c) to develop and distribute customised solutions combining DataDotDNA, DataTraceID and asset registration.

There has been no significant change in the nature of these activities during the year.

Review of operations

Revenue for the first 6 months of the 2015/16 financial year was $3,480,556, being 3.45% higher than the pcp.

Revenue from Europe was up 45% pcp (in AUD), and holds the prospect of much greater growth in coming periods. One of our European distributors has won a major contract extension and expansion into more than 10 other European countries (following a competitive bidding process) and is currently negotiating final terms under confidentiality restrictions. Details will be announced once the contract has been executed. Revenue from this distributor is expected to double once the expansion is complete with a material increase to the company’s European revenues.

Revenue growth in Europe was offset to some degree by the performance in the Americas and DataTraceDNA. There has however been material growth in the sales pipelines in both these areas. Additionally recent results suggest considerable longer term growth in the US auto business is achievable.

Gross profit was $1,983,925 at 57% of revenue compared to $2,024,834 at 60% of revenue pcp. This reflects the proportional growth of Europe, where margins are lower due to the ‘wholesale’ nature of the business in that region.

Other key financial results for the first 6 months of the 2015/16 financial year reflect the investment in resources to pursue growth, particularly in the Americas and in DataTraceDNA and that the sales pipelines, which have been created as a result are still maturing into revenue:

Group expenses, were $3,382,832 compared to $2,491,480 pcp – up predominantly due to employment costs,
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation ("EBITDA") were $854,314 loss compared to $142,803 pcp,

The Company has taken steps (after the reporting period) to adjust its workforce to improve conversion rates and earnings. These changes will result in a material positive impact on Earnings in the second half of the year and beyond.

As at 31 December 2015, cash balances held by the company amounted to $3,338,538.

Directors’ Report

for the half year ended 31 December 2015

Australasia

In Australasia, total revenue was $1,754,349, which represents a decrease of 2% compared to pcp. The Australian business continues to be predominantly in the auto industry with an OEM providing a significant percentage of the total revenue. Additionally as the group headquarters it receives management fees from other operations, which do not affect the group’s financial result.

During the first half of the year we also focused on laying the foundations for future revenue growth. This included:

tuning and promoting our industrial theft deterrent offering to Australian businesses. This on-going work aims to capitalize on the strong theft reduction rates that this solution has generated for existing customers,
refreshing the National Bike Register in order to generate greater awareness, utility and the potential for revenue from new business models relating to data and proof of ownership, and
on the innovation front, early stage trials of DataDot Live in the fleet management sector.

Americas

In the Americas, total revenue was $834,778, which represents a decrease of 5% compared to pcp.

Profitability was negatively affected by the investment in sales resources. Whilst our sales pipeline has grown by over 400%, conversion rates have been low and as such profitability has been negatively affected. With ongoing tuning of our offerings we aim to improve conversion rates and profitability. Other ongoing adjustments to the workforce are being made to improve conversion rates and earnings.

Key industrial customers in the Americas include Excel Energy with which we are in discussions about national adoption. Con Edison (which has adopted our dot product as its preferred solution but is yet to role it out in material numbers) and a large US Transit Co will also jointly trial a customised solution in the US spring. We have received our first order from Mexico (via our distributor). Additionally a small network of distributors, manufacturer’s rep firms and integrators has been signed up to sell to smaller enterprises. Whilst it is early days for this model the feedback received so far has been positive.

In the auto industry we have been working with our distribution partner to re-invigorate and grow the aftermarket/dealership channel (where our anti-theft deterrent is sold with a theft warranty). Results in this channel slowed during the period despite an improving outlook for the auto industry. Numbers for January 2016 and February 2016 (part) suggest that this work is being effective. Longer term we see considerable growth in this channel. Today we are selling approximately 8,000 – 14,000 auto kits per month through a network of around 400 dealers, whilst there are approximately 17,000 dealers in the United States.

The CopDot residential product is now being sold, on a trial basis, in partnership with Home Alarm companies as a value add and differentiator. Again the early feedback on this model has been positive.

Europe

In Europe, total revenue was $1,365,727, which represents an increase of 45% compared to pcp.

One of our European distributors has won a major contract extension and expansion into more than 10 other European countries (following a competitive bidding process) and is currently negotiating final terms under confidentiality restrictions. Details will be announced once the contract has been executed. Revenue from this distributor is expected to double with a material increase to the company’s European revenues once the expansion is complete. The expansion is scheduled to commence later in this financial year.

The distributor was selected following a competitive selection process and will supply the Company’s micro-dot kits and a QR code (a form of 2D bar code that is used to provide easy access to information through a smart phone) that has been included in the on-vehicle labeling to enable smart-phone readability.

We are also in the final stages of preparing a trial for the European division of a global car rental company that has the potential for substantial new business.

The remainder of our European business has been growing steadily at the rate of 11% compared to pcp.

Directors’ Report

for the half year ended 31 December 2015

DataTraceID Pty Limited

Total DataTrace revenue was $528,945, which represents a decrease of 20% compared to pcp.

The reduced revenue is largely due to a decrease in the volume of orders from our gaming customer, given a down turn in the Asian gaming industry. However profitability has also been affected by our investment in sales resources and the long sales cycles associated with authentication and brand protection products, which are ‘high trust’ and often require extended pilot programs before a sale can be closed.

The sales pipeline has been growing significantly, particularly in the US and we continue to be optimistic about the growth prospects for DataTrace. Other key developments include:

the successful conclusion of a ‘live pilot’ with a large US FMCG company and adoption of our authentication solution for a product line, with the prospect of greater adoption now being pursued,
our partnership with PadJack Inc, a US corporation that provides security solutions for physical protection of computer ports and cables. Under this agreement PadJack may incorporate DataTraceSPECTRO, our covert taggant authentication solution, into its products to enhance the security of PadJacks for its North American customers, including financial institutions, hospitals and nuclear facilities, and
the progress of our joint venture partner, Beston Global Food Company Ltd (ASX: BFC) in establishing their food sourcing and authentication platform, which we expect to begin requiring authentication devices and thus generating revenue for the Company (via the Brandlok joint venture).

On 12 February 2016 we were notified that our Bulk Material Patent had been allowed by the US Examiner. A patent grant will follow after payment of fees. This is an important step in our development of a solution for bulk materials, where for example brand owners in the construction industry find warranty claims difficult to test and/or defeat for incorrect concentrations or use of illegitimate product. The US grant supplements grants in Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan and South Africa. Applications are still pending in the EU, China and Japan

Outlook

The Outlook for the Company is strong with a number of avenues poised to deliver growth, including:

Growth in Europe from a major contract expansion
Authentication product sales (pipeline conversion), particularly in the US where the pipeline has grown strongly,
Growth in the US auto aftermarket/dealership channel as the share of dealers carrying our product increases,
Industrial product sales in the US and other regions, and
Our food authentication joint venture with Beston Global Food Company Ltd (ASX: BFC).

Additionally we expect improvements in earnings due to material cost reductions made post the period and as the prospects generated by our investment in sales resources begin to convert to revenue.

DataDot has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the executive management team (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

Management has reviewed the segments and determined the group is organised into business units based on their product and services and accordingly has two reportable segments. In prior periods three operating segments were identified by management based on the location of the selling segment and one operating segment was identified by management based on the product offerings. Due to the change in the composition of reportable segments, the segment information for earlier periods has been restated. Discrete financial information about each of these operating businesses is reported to the executive management team on at least a monthly basis.

Products and services by segment

Two reportable segments have been identified as follows:

DataDotDNA® ‑ polymer and metallic microdots containing etched data that is unique to the assets to which the microdots are attached;

DataTraceDNA® – a high speed, high security, machine readable system for authenticating materials, products, and assets and IntelliSeed™ by AgTechnix is a frontier patent pending technology, supporting global agriculture and protecting investments in intellectual property across a diverse spectrum of agricultural activities, including seed and plant genetics.

Accounting policies and intersegment transactions

The accounting policies used by DataDot in reporting segments internally is the same as those contained in the prior period. Intersegment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis. Intersegment transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

The following tables present the revenue, profit/(loss) before tax, assets and liabilities information regarding operating segments for half years ended 31 December 2015 and 31 December 2014.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of DataDot Technology Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of DataDot Technology Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2015, the consolidated statement of profit or loss, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a statement of accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

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

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2015 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of DataDot Technology Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of DataDot Technology Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.
