Review of Financial Condition

FY19 Financial Performance

During the year ended 30 June 2019 DTI recorded revenue of $19.2 million (2018: $19.1 million). This represents a 0.4 per cent increase compared to the prior year and is attributed to a similar order book in the rail and bus sectors. DTI’s revenue continues to be largely dependent upon capital projects during the year. There is an increased focus on securing revenue from maintenance and recurring equipment sales. Revenue from these sources was $10.7 million (2018: $9.9 million) which represents an 8 per cent increase compared to the prior year.

DTI recorded negative EBITDA of $8.2 million for the year ended 30 June 2019 (2018: negative $10.1 million). Reported EBITDA was adversely impacted by the identification and impairment of unrecoverable assets and the execution of several contracts with less than optimum margins. These matters are further elaborated in the discussion on Underlying EBITDA below.

Corporate overheads of $3.4 million (2018: $2.9 million) increased by 14 per cent compared to prior year. This increase is largely due to increase in legal, professional and consulting fees. Employee benefits expense of $7.4 million (2018: $7.7 million) was 4.0 per cent lower than prior year and includes restructuring provision totalling $0.5 million.

Underlying EBITDA

During the year DTI recorded a number of non-recurring expenses attributed to events from earlier reporting periods. In order to present an underlying EBITDA result, these items have been identified in the following table:

Reconciliation of Underlying EBITDA	FY19	FY18
	$	$
Statutory EBIT	(9,535,657)	(13,125,393)
Depreciation/Amortisation	1,355,778	2,997,747
Reported EBITDA	(8,179,879)	(10,127,646)
Impairment of intangible assets	1,493,687	5,163,573
Impairment of inventory	2,668,910	2,045,819
Impairment of trade receivables	348,326	383,015
Impairment of contract costs	500,000	-
Restructuring/redundancy costs	500,000	270,272
Underlying EBITDA	(2,668,956)	(2,264,967)

Net Impairment charges:

DTI regularly reviews the capitalised value of intangible assets to confirm that the carrying value can be recovered against future product sales. Where a product has become obsolete or is determined not to generate sufficient sales to support the carrying value then the intangible asset is impaired.

During the financial year, DTI performed a comprehensive review of its Statement of Financial Position with a focus on asset recoverability and valuation and as a result of this review DTI impaired certain inventory, which was no longer deemed commercial and long standing receivables, contract costs, which were deemed to be unrecoverable.

As at 30 June 2019, the market capitalisation of DTI did not exceed its net assets, which is an indicator of asset impairment under accounting standards. For the purpose of impairment testing the intangibles are allocated to one Cash Generating unit (CGU) on the group level. The recoverable amount of the CGU was then determined using the value is use model which requires the use of key assumption and judgments relating to future revenues, anticipated gross margins, growth rates expected and discount rate. The Board determined that the underlying assumptions supporting the impairment model were sensitive to create uncertainty of the model outcomes. As a result, the Board has taken the decision to impair the balance of capitalised development costs by $1,493,687 (2018: $5,163,573).

Cash Flow

DTI generated negative cash flow from operations of $0.96 million during the financial year. Net cash outflow for the year was $3.1 million. Key impacts on net cash flow included:

i) Continued investment in R&D activities amounting to $2.0 million;
ii) Continued working capital intensity, primarily for rail projects, amounting to $2.6 million; and
iii) R&D grant received of $1.6 million relating to FY18 financial year.

Directors’ Report

==> picture [78 x 14] intentionally omitted <==

Rail projects typically have a larger investment in engineering and design and can be subject to delays outside of DTI’s control. The working capital intensity of these rail projects gives rise to irregular cash flows.

Financial Position

As at the end of the financial year, DTI maintained positive cash reserves of $2.0 million and sufficient levels of liquid working capital. DTI has no term debt and the only financial indebtedness relates to insurance premium funding.

As described in the Financial Statements as at 30 June 2019, DTI is not in compliance with its financial covenants with Bankwest. Bankwest has provided a waiver of this non-compliance until the next review in September 2019.

Review of principal business

DTI services the global mass transit market. The principal underlying drivers for DTI business are:

i) Increased public and private investment in public transport infrastructure;
ii) Requirement for improved security and surveillance on mass transit systems; and
iii) Increased demand for passenger information systems on mass transit systems.

DTI considers these are strong drivers of demand for its products and services which will continue into FY20 and beyond.

Investments for future performance

DTI completed a major investment in new products which resulted in material R&D costs incurred and a lag in revenue as these new products were introduced to market. This contributed to the Group’s net loss for the year. While R&D activities will continue to be a focus for DTI, it is considered that the level of R&D spend will be reduced in FY20 and be more focused on software features and services.

Operational performance

Throughout FY19 DTI won a number of significant new contracts on the basis of its unique product offering. DTI was awarded contracts to provide surveillance and other associated equipment for London Underground, Virgin Trains, MTM COMENG fleet and London Midland.

DTI continues to provide long-term maintenance and support services to municipal transit authorities in Australia (Brisbane City Council, Public Transit Authority of Western Australia, Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure of South Australia, and Action Bus (Canberra)) and in the UK. DTI is also continuing to supply its mobile video surveillance solutions to long term customers in San Francisco and Philadelphia.

Throughout FY19, DTI made significant investment in new products, primarily for deployment on Alstom trains for the Sydney Metro project. Deliveries of these products (by train-set) commenced in FY17 and continued throughout FY19. The DART project in the USA moved to completion and has entered the warranty phase.

DTI successfully completed an external surveillance audit for its ISO9001:2008 Quality Assurance certification by Bureau Veritas. The ISO9001 accreditation provides further assurance to customers that

they receive the very best in quality and service from our company and will cater to broadening business opportunities globally.

Significant changes in state of affairs

In the opinion of the directors, there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group that occurred during the financial year under review.

Outlook

Opportunity Pipeline

DTI continues to enjoy strong demand for its products and services with an Opportunity Pipeline exceeding $120 million. FY19 was a challenging year for the Group with a significant investment made in developing new products that have positioned the business strongly to drive future revenue growth. Efforts to position DTI with major rail and bus providers should continue to develop into new projects and service opportunities in FY20. A large number of markets indicate major new investment in either new fleets or retrofit of existing fleets. This should position DTI well, as recent product developments can now be offered for these opportunities.

Order Book

DTI continued to secure new projects including a large rail upgrade project for MTM in Melbourne. This project included core technology offerings for passenger information, hearing loop, CCTV and emergency communications. The Central Line project in the UK was also secured which include camera and digital recording products.

Smaller product and project sales across Europe continued to be awarded to DTI through our system integrator network. Ongoing orders for digital recording systems for new buses in Australia through key bus manufacturers was also a highlight.

Business Strategies

DTI’s business strategy to develop innovative hardware and software products for the transit industry covering passenger information, multi-use digital video recording and emergency communications systems has resulted in a suite of products and solutions ready for the global transit market. DTI will continue to seek new projects in selected markets to capitalise on these new offerings.

Into FY20, DTI will focus on its existing customer base and concentrate on improving its delivery of projects together with ensuring we secure long term maintenance and support agreements.

Product development focus will include exciting new software analytics offerings.

Future Developments

With regards to its current balance of contracted work, DTI expects to deliver improved revenue and gross margin during the second half of FY20 as a number of projects move into final delivery stages. Focus on growing DTI’s service businesses to deliver improved customer service outcomes and increased gross margin contributions to the overall DTI business, will continue. The opportunity to win new contracted work from its range of new products is strong and DTI is focussed on building its backlog of contracted work in order to demonstrate strong future revenue. Cost control across the business will continue to receive attention.

Dividends

In respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2019, no interim dividend was paid and the directors have determined that no final dividend will be paid.

Events since the end of the financial year

Pursuant to the Underwriting Deeds, the Underwriters also agreed to advance the Underwriter Loans ($810,552 from UIL and $971,684 from Finico) to the Company on 20 August 2019, the repayment of which will be satisfied and offset by the Company via the issue of 32,422,088 New Shares to UIL and 38,867,358 New Shares to Finico under the proposed Entitlement Offer.

Other than what has been mentioned above, no matters or circumstance have arisen that have significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of DTI Group Ltd, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of DTI Group Ltd in subsequent years that is not otherwise disclosed in this report.

Likely developments and expected results of operations

The Group will continue to pursue its policy of developing communications and passenger information technologies for the global mass transit market. DTI remains confident in its outlook as it seeks to drive growth via its strong pipeline of opportunities. The Group’s ongoing investment in R&D aims to strive for continued innovation and market leadership of the products and services that DTI offers to the global mass transit industry and other related markets.

Environmental regulation

The Company is not subject to any specific environmental regulation. The Directors have considered compliance with the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 which requires entities to report greenhouse gas emissions and energy use. The Directors have assessed that there are no current reporting requirements, but the Company may be required to do so in the future.

Remuneration Policy

Non-Executive Directors

Non-Executive Directors receive a Board fee and fees for chairing or participating on Board committees, as set out below. They do not receive performance-based pay or retirement allowances. The fees are inclusive of superannuation. The Chairman does not receive additional fees for participating in or chairing committees.

The Chairman of the Board receives a fixed fee of $50,000 per annum. Other Non-Executive Directors each receive an annual Board fee of $30,000 plus an additional $5,000 per annum for membership of the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee. A further fee of $5,000 per annum is paid to the chairman of the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee. However with the dissolution of the Audit, Risk and Compliance and Nominations and Remuneration Committees, Non-Executive Directors will no longer be entitled to receive membership fees to the Audit Committee. No additional fees apply with respect to the Nominations and Remuneration Committee. The maximum annual aggregate Directors’ fee pool limit is $250,000. Fees will be reviewed annually by the Board in the future.

All Non-Executive Directors have entered into a service agreement with the Company in the form of a letter of appointment. The letter summarises various matters relating to the appointment including the position’s role and responsibilities, time commitments, remuneration and expenses, outside interests, securities dealing policy and the treatment of confidential information. These matters are consistently applied for each Non-Executive Director.

DTI Executives

The Company’s remuneration policy for DTI executives is to fairly and responsibly reward them having regard to the performance of the Group, the performance of the executive and prevailing remuneration expectations in the market.

The Company also seeks to establish remuneration structures which align the interests of its key management personnel with the interests of the Company and its shareholders. DTI has established a Management Compensation Plan (MCP) under which certain executives are entitled to receive short-term incentives (STI) and long term incentives (LTI) based on the delivery of key Group and individual outcomes, and the profitability of the DTI Group. During the financial year, only Mr Tazewell and Mr Johnson were participants of the MCP.

Audited Remuneration Report

Other DTI executives do not have a formal STI or LTI component of their remuneration package however they may receive a cash bonus as a STI, at the discretion of the Board.

As detailed in this report, no DTI executives received any STI or LTI payments in respect of FY19.

The amount of compensation for current and future periods for DTI executives is based on consideration of market factors, comparison to peers and reference to the individual’s experience and performance. Overall, remuneration policies are subject to the discretion of the Board and can be changed to reflect the competitive market and business conditions when in the interest of the Company and shareholders.

Performance Evaluation

Each DTI executive is subject to a review of their individual performance each year in accordance with the Company’s Development and Appraisal Process. This process usually takes place in September each year.

Remuneration Structure

DTI executive

The remuneration structure for DTI executives participating in the MCP is based on the concept of a total package target (TPT) assuming budgeted financial performance is achieved and the participants performed satisfactorily. If the business and/or the participants perform below standard then the total remuneration will be less. If financial performance exceeds budget and there is above average performance then the package can increase by up to 18.75 per cent of the TPT. The TPT comprises three components:

i) A fixed component, representing base salary plus superannuation, which comprises 75 per cent of the TPT;
ii) a variable component, represented by a STI paid as a cash bonus, which comprises 12.5 per cent of the TPT. This component can increase to 25 per cent of the fixed component for exceptional performance; and
iii) a variable component, represented by a LTI in the form of an equity issue of DTI shares, which comprises 12.5 per cent of the TPT. This component can increase to 33.3 per cent of the fixed component for exceptional performance.

The STI and LTI are determined following the finalisation of the audited annual financial results. If employment has ceased for any reason on or before the date when the STI and LTI are paid or are due for payment, eligibility to receive the STI and LTI lapses. The participants may elect to receive the STI payment in equity securities, subject to shareholder approval.

In the event of serious misconduct or a material misstatement in the Company’s financial statements, the Board can cancel or defer performance-based remuneration and may also claw back performance-based remuneration paid in previous financial years.

The Board of DTI Group reserves the right not to pay an STI or LTI if financial performance, earnings per share and/or operational performance have not met the expectations of the Board.

Audited Remuneration Report

The remuneration structure for DTI executives not participating in the MCP is based on a fixed component, representing base salary plus superannuation. DTI Executives may be granted a cash bonus at the discretion of the Board.

Fixed Component

Fixed remuneration comprises base salary, employer superannuation contributions and other allowances and non-cash benefits. Each Executive’s fixed remuneration is reviewed and benchmarked annually.

Variable Component – STI and LTI

Variable remuneration for participants in the MCP comprises STIs linked to Company and individual performance over one year, and LTIs linked to performance over a period greater than a year. The following table sets out the maximum variable remuneration each Executive Officer could have achieved, on an annualised basis, in FY19, expressed as a percentage of total remuneration, if maximum performance was achieved for the STI and LTI components of their variable components.

Relationship between the remuneration policy and company performance

One of the directors’ remuneration objectives is to align the interests of its key management personnel with the interests of the Company and its shareholders. In FY19 this was achieved through the participation of the Company’s two principal executives in the MCP which placed a material proportion of executives’ remuneration at risk. It is intended to introduce an incentive plan for other executives in the future.

As noted previously, no awards of STI will be made to DTI executives in relation to FY19. Refer Table on page 20 for further remuneration details of key management personnel.

The relationship between remuneration and DTI’s performance for the following executive KMPs are set out below.

Peter Tazewell

ST Incentive cash bonus based on the achievement of budgeted EBITDA (50 per cent weighting), achievement of revenue, profit before and after tax and operating and investing cash flow (20 per cent weighting) and the achievement of other criteria including expansion and diversification, business plans and strategy (30 per cent weighting). The composition of the cash bonus is 12.5 per cent of the package guide or up to 25 per cent of the base salary for exceptional performance.
LT Incentive based on the achievement of earnings per share performance compared to the previous period (50 per cent weighting) and non-financial performance including shareholder and broker relationships, communication and presentation skills, board-reporting and management information systems, risk assessment and problem solving, forward thinking and innovative mindset (50 per cent weighting). The LT Incentive forms 12.5 per cent of the package guide or up to 33.3 per cent of the base salary for exceptional performance.
Mr Tazewell was allocated 300,000 performance rights as an LTI in FY19 which will be subjected to further service and performance conditions. Refer to DTI Employee Performance Rights page 24.

Richard Johnson

Cash bonus based on the achievement of budgeted EBITDA (70 per cent weighting) and the achievement of other criteria including projects and margins, business expansion, service levels and product reliability (30 per cent weighting). The composition of the cash bonus is 12.5 per cent of the package guide or up to 25 per cent of the base salary for exceptional performance.
LT Incentive based on the achievement of earnings per share performance compared to the previous period (50 per cent weighting) and non-financial performance including leadership, replicability and character (50 per cent weighting). The LT Incentive forms 12.5 per cent of the package guide or up to 33 per cent of the base salary for exceptional performance.
Mr Johnson was allocated 100,000 performance rights as an LTI in FY19 which will be subjected to further service and performance conditions. Refer to DTI Employee Performance Rights page 24.

DTI Employee Share Plan

The DTI Employee Share Plan (DESP) has been established to permit shares to be issued by the Company to employees for no cash consideration. All permanent employees (excluding directors) who have been continuously employed by the group for a period of at least one year are eligible to participate in the scheme. Employees may elect not to participate in the scheme.

The shares are recognised at the closing share price on the grant date (31c on 15 April 2016) as an issue of treasury shares by the trust and as part of employee benefit costs over the period the shares vest. The shares vest one third per year on the anniversary date of 15 April over the subsequent three years.

Treasury shares are shares in the Company that are held by DTI Capital Ltd for the purpose of issuing shares under the DESP. The shares are held as treasury shares until such time as they are vested. Forfeited DESP shares may be reallocated in subsequent grants.

DTI Employee Performance Rights

On 20 November 2018 during the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, it was resolved that DTI would be permitted to issue performance rights, options and restricted shares under a new DTI Group Limited Equity Plan. The Company has established the Plan to assist in the motivation, retention and reward of employees and replaces the DESP.

The Plan is designed to align the interests of executives and employees with the interests of shareholders by providing an opportunity for the participants to receive any equity interest in the Company. At the date of this report 273,000 shares and 925,000 Performance Rights have been granted under this plan.

The performance rights have a three-year vesting period and will be subject to a relative total shareholder return hurdle (RTSR Hurdle), which compares the total shareholder return performance of the Group with each of the entities within the S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries Index. The performance rights are valued using a hybrid option pricing model. The model uses a correlated simulation that simultaneously calculates the RTSR of the Company and each constituent of the Peer Group on a risk neutral basis as at the vesting date with regards to the performance period. The fair value at grant date each performance right issued was $0.035.

Company’s RTSR percentile rank against comparator group	Vesting percentage
Less than 50th	Nil
At 50th	50%
Between 50thand 75th	50 – 100% on a straight-line basis
At 75th	100%

Reliance on External Remuneration Consultants

There has not been any reliance on external remuneration consultants.

Adoption of Remuneration Report

At the 2018 Annual General Meeting, the resolution adopting the 2018 Remuneration Report was carried unanimously.

The Company received more than 98.1 per cent of “yes” votes on its Remuneration Report for the 2018 financial year. The Company did not receive any specific feedback at the Annual General Meeting or throughout the year on its remuneration practices.

This concludes the remuneration report, which has been audited.

Note 1: Segment information

Operating segments were reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.

The CODM is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) who monitors the operating results of the consolidated group and organises its business activities and product lines to serve the global mass transit industry. The performance of the consolidated group is evaluated based on Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortisation (“EBITDA”) which is measured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies.

The following is an analysis of the Group’s revenue and results from continuing operations by reportable segment.

Major customers

DTI supplies goods and services to a broad range of customers in the transit industry. During the reporting period, three (2018: four) major customers accounted for in excess of 49 per cent (2018: 30 per cent) of Group’s revenue.

Note 2: Revenue and expenses

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Group has adopted AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers with a date of initial application of 1 July 2018. As a result, the Group has changed its accounting policy for revenue recognition as detailed below.

The Group has applied AASB 15 using the cumulative effect method and therefore the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under AASB 118. The details of accounting policies under AASB 118 are disclosed separately if they are different from those under AASB 15 and the impact of changes is disclosed in Note 25.

A. Significant accounting policy

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group recognises revenue when it transfers control over a product or service to a customer.

In the comparative period 30 June 2018, revenue was recognised at fair value of the consideration received net of the amount of GST or value added tax payable to the taxation authorities. Sales of products were recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer and can be measured reliably. Risks and rewards were considered passed to the buyer at the time of delivery of the goods to the customer or at the point where billing threshold has been met. Service revenue was recognised when the fees in respect of services rendered were earned, usually when services had been provided to customers or as per terms and conditions of service contracts.

Note 2: Revenue and expenses (cont’d)

B. Nature of Goods and Services

The following is a description of the principal activities from which the Group generates its revenue.

Products and services	Nature, timing of satisfaction of performance obligations and significant payment terms
Sale of goods only	The Group recognises revenue when the customers obtain control of the goods. This usually occurs when the goods are delivered. The amount of revenue recognised for goods delivered is adjusted for expected returns. Invoices are generated and revenue is recognised at that point in time. Invoices are usually payable within 45 days (credit term). No element of financing is deemed present as the sales are made within standard credit term, which is consistent with market practice. The Group’s obligation to provide a refund or replacement for faulty products under the standard warranty terms is recognised as a provision.
Project-based services	Some contracts include multiple deliverables, such as the provision and installation and commission of hardware and software. These multiple deliverables form an integration service and could not be performed by another party, the goods and services represent a single combined performance obligation over which control is considered to transfer over time. This is because the provision of goods and services by the Group enhance an asset (i.e trains or buses) that the customer controls as the asset is enhanced. Revenue is recognised overtime as the customisation or integration work is performed, using the cost to cost input method to estimate progress towards completion. When cost incurred is not proportionate to the entity’s progress in satisfying the performance obligation, the input method is adjusted to recognise revenue only to the extent of that cost incurred (For example, goods have been delivered to the customers but installation has not commenced). Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances changes. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management. Customers usually pay according to the agreed invoicing schedule or contract milestones. If the goods and services rendered by the Group exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the goods and services rendered, a contract liability is recognised.
Maintenance and technical support	The Group provides maintenance and technical services. These services are usually bundled together with sales of products or provision of project services to customer. The maintenance and technical support can be obtained from other providers and do not significantly customise or modify the product sold. When these service is bundled together with other services provided by the Group, the Group performed a re-allocation of contract consideration based on the relative stand-alone selling prices of its bundled services. For maintenance and technical support, which is billed based on hourly basis, the Group recognises revenue as the services are performed.

Contract assets Contract costs Contract liabilities

The Group has adopted cumulative effect method, under this method only balances at transition is presented.

(i) Definition

Contract Assets

The contract assets primarily relate to the Group’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional.

Contract Liabilities

The contract liabilities primarily relate to the advance consideration received from customers for projectbased service, for which revenue is deferred until revenue can be recognised on the completion of its passenger information system.

Contract Costs

Management expects that incremental costs incurred as a result of obtaining project-based contracts are recovered. These incremental costs of completing a particular project-based contract is capitalised as contract costs and expensed when the related revenue is recognised. The Group have applied the practical expedient in paragraph 94 of AASB 15, the Group recognises the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortisation period of the assets that the Group otherwise would have recognised is one year or less. The Group applies impairment policy on contract costs as stated in Note 10.

Note 2: Revenue and expenses (cont’d)

(ii) Significant changes in contract assets and contract liabilities

Contract assets have increased as the group has provided more services ahead of the agreed payment schedules for fixed price-contracts.

Contract liabilities have increased due to to the advance consideration received from customers for projectbased service, for which revenue is deferred until revenue can be recognised on the completion of its passenger information system.

(iii) Revenue recognised in relation to contract liabilities

Revenue recognised for the year ended 30 June 2019 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period is Nil.

The amount of revenue recognised for the year ended 30 June 2019 from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods is nil.

(iv) Unsatisfied long-term contracts

The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations resulting from long-term contracts as at 30 June 2019 is $21.6 million.

Management expects that 56% of the transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied contracts as of 30 June 2019 will be recognised as revenue during the next reporting period. The remaining 44% will be recognised between 2021 to 2023 financial year. The amount disclosed above does not include variable consideration which is constrained.

As permitted under the transitional provisions in AASB 15, the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations (partially or fully) as of 30 June 2018 is not disclosed. The Group applies the practical expedient in paragraph 121 of AASB 15 and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less.

Note 2: Revenue and expenses (cont’d)

(i) Government grants

Government grants are assistance by the government in the form of transfers of resources to the Company in return for past or future compliance with certain conditions relating to the operating activities of the entity. Government grants include government assistance where there are no conditions specifically relating to the operating activities of the Company other than the requirement to operate in certain regions or industry sectors. Government grants relating to income are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs and grants relating to assets are regarded as a reduction in asset. Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs are recognised as income of the period in which it becomes receivable. The requirements of AASB 120: Government Grants, R&D Grant Income, requires that income earned from the grant in relation to expenditure on capitalised intangible assets, are offset against the value of those intangible assets. This is done after reducing it by the amount of amortisation recognised in the financial year as follows:

Note 3: Income tax

Current tax

Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is accounted for using the comprehensive balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items.

In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, a deferred tax liability is not recognised in relation to taxable temporary differences arising from goodwill.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in associates and are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and that they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Current and deferred tax for the period

Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill or excess.

Significant Estimate

Trade Receivable

The loss allowances for trade receivable are based on assumptions about the risk of default and expected loss rates. The group uses judgements in making these assumptions and selecting inputs to the impairment calculation based on group past history of defaults, existing market condition as well as forward looking estimates in each reporting period.

(a) Impaired trade receivables

At 30 June 2019 current trade receivables of the Group with a value of $348,326 (2018: $383,015) were impaired.

It was assessed that a nominal portion of these receivables is expected to be recovered and the full amount has been provided for.

The creation and release of the provision for impaired receivables has been included in ‘other expenses’ in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Amounts charged to the allowance account are generally written off when there is no expectation of recovering additional cash.

(b) Past due but not impaired

At 30 June 2019 trade receivables of $784,333 (2018: $1,921,471) were past due, but not impaired. These relate to a number of independent customers for whom there is no recent history of default. DTI is confident that these receivables are collectible and are active in the management and reduction of these overdue amounts.

The other classes within Trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. Based on the credit history of these trade receivables, it is expected that these amounts will be received when due. The Group does not hold any collateral in relation to these receivables.

(c) Foreign exchange and interest rate risk

Information on the Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk in relation to trade and other receivables is provided in Note 14.

(d) Fair value and credit risk

Due to the short-term nature of current receivables, their carrying amount is assumed to approximate their fair value. Credit risk is assessed at the time a customer applies to open a credit account with the Group and is monitored thereafter on a regular basis. Management assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience, trade references, external rating where obtained and other factors then sets credit limits. The compliance with credit limits by customers is regularly monitored by management.

Note 6: Trade and other payables

Trade payables and other payables are recognised when the Company becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 60 to 90 days of recognition.

In October 2018, the Company financed its insurance premiums through Monument Premium Funding with the funds to be repaid within the next 12 months.

During the financial year, the company repaid it finance leases with Capital Finance Australia and ANZ Ltd in full. Therefore, there were no asset financing facilities utilised at 30 June 2019 (2018: $112,966).

Borrowings	112,966 (66,124) – – 46,842

Accounting Policy

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transactions costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities, which are not an incremental cost relating to the actual draw-down of the facility, are recognised as prepayments and amortised on a straight-line basis over the term of the facility.

Financing Facility

The group has a $3.5 million, multi-option, multi-currency funding package with Bankwest. The $3.5 million facility covers the Group’s working capital, bonding and overdraft facilities and encompasses sub-limits for certain facilities. The working capital, bonding and overdraft facilities can be drawn in multiple currencies using a variety of instruments. As at 30 June 2019, $885,082 was drawn down as bank guarantee with the remaining $2,614,918 unutilised. Refer to Note 18(c).

In determining the obsolescence provision management reviewed all inventory items and assessed future demand for these items along with projected maintenance requirements for the support of existing contracts over the coming years.

Accounting Policy

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs are assigned to inventory on hand by the method most appropriate to each particular class of inventory, with the majority being valued on a weighted average basis by location. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Note 10: Intangible assets (cont’d)

Accounting Policy

Amortisation of Capitalised Development Costs

In prior financial period, DTI has reassessed the accounting estimates of the amortisation of its Capitalised Development Costs. DTI has determined that a straight line basis in accordance with AASB108 para.40, is a more appropriate method rather than amortisation based on the revenue method.

Impairment of assets

At each reporting date, the entity reviews the carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

Intangibles

Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.

Capitalised Development Costs

Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs incurred on development projects (relating to the design and testing of new or improved products) are recognised as intangible assets when it is probable that the project will be a success considering its commercial and technical feasibility and its costs can be measured reliably. The expenditure capitalised comprises all directly attributable costs, including costs of materials, services and direct labour. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period.

The carrying value of an intangible asset arising from development expenditure is tested for impairment annually when the asset is not yet available for use, or more frequently when an indication of impairment arises during the reporting period. All other intangible assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the company amount may not be recoverable.

Significant estimates: Useful life of Patents and Development cost

Patents have been assessed as having a useful life and are amortised using the straight line method over a period of 10 years. The patents have been granted for between 15 and 20 years by the relevant government agency.

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 assets and are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

Description of the Group’s Intangible Assets

(a) Development costs

Development costs are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. The net development costs has been subject to impairment testing. If an impairment indicator arises, the recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment loss is recognised to the extent that the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount.

(b) Goodwill

Goodwill has been externally acquired and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The goodwill arose on the acquisition of the remaining 50.5 per cent of Virtual Observer Pty Ltd on 28 June 2012 and represents the difference between the purchase price and the net liabilities. This is fully impaired as at 30 June 2018.

(c) Patents

Patents have been externally acquired and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. This intangible asset has been assessed as having a useful life and is amortised using the straight line method over a period of 10 years. The patents have been granted for between fifteen and twenty years by the relevant government agency. If an impairment indication arises, the recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment loss is recognised to the extent that the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount.

(d) Impairment

The board determined that the underlying assumptions supporting the impairment were sufficiently sensitive to create uncertainty of the model outcomes. As a result, the board has taken the decision to impair the balance of capitalised development costs by $1,493,687 (2018: $5,163,573) to a nil amount.

	36,760 46,255

Accounting Policy

Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave, and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably. Provisions made in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave and sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.

Provision for restructuring represents the costs associated with the re-organisation of the operations of the business in the next six to nine months in order to improve the overall efficiency and longer-term profitability of the business.

The provision for warranty claims represents the present value of the directors’ best estimate of the future outflow of economic benefits that will be required under the group’s obligations for warranties under local sale of goods legislation. The estimate has been made on the basis of historical warranty trends and may vary as a result of new materials, altered manufacturing processes or other events affecting product quality.

*Balance excludes 1,942,250 Treasury Share held in trust for DESP.

Fully paid ordinary shares carry one vote per share and carry the right to dividends.

Ordinary shares have no par value and the Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital.

Employee Share Plan

The DTI Employee Share Plan (DESP) has been established by the Board to permit shares to be issued by the Company to employees for no cash consideration and has been put in place by the Company. All permanent employees (excluding directors) who have been continuously employed by the group for a period of at least one year are eligible to participate in the scheme. Employees may elect not to participate in the scheme.

The shares are recognised at the closing share price on the grant date (31c on 15 April 2016) as an issue of treasury shares by the trust and as part of employee benefit costs over the period the shares vest. The share vest one third per year on the anniversary date of 15 April over the next three years.

DTI Capital Pty Ltd (Trustee), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, has been appointed by the Company to act as the trustee of the DESP. The Company has issued 2,000,000 DESP shares to the Trustee to hold for the benefit of employees until the DESP shares cease to be subject to any vesting conditions, at which time the DESP shares will be transferred to the employee or sold on behalf of the employee, with the sale proceeds remitted to the employee. As at 30 June 2019, 57,750 shares had vested with eligible employees and transferred to them, 1,468,250 shares had vested with eligible employees, but remain registered with the Trustee. The remaining 474,000 shares has not been allocated and has lapsed and was forfeited. Refer to Note 17.

Treasury shares are shares in the Company that are held by DTI Capital Ltd for issuing shares under the DESP. The shares are held as treasury shares until they are vested. Forfeited DESP shares may be reallocated in subsequent grants.

Note 13: Contributed equity (cont’d)

Performance rights

Pursuant to DTI Group Limited Equity Plan the Company has granted 925,000 performance rights to executives to align remuneration with the creation of shareholder value over the long-term.

Company’s RTSR percentile rank against comparator group	Vesting percentage
Less than 50th	Nil
At 50th	50%
Between 50thand 75th	50 – 100% on a straight-line basis
At 75th	100%

During the year ended 30 June 2019, no performance rights have vested. The share-based payment expense recognised for the year ended 30 June 2019 was $10,792. The fair value of the performance rights is $32,375.

Accounting Policy

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. If the Company re-acquires its own equity instruments, for example as a result of a share buy-back, those instruments are deducted from equity and the associated shares are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is recognised directly in equity.

The Group’s principal financial instruments are cash, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, and borrowings. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group’s operations. The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade and other receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. The Group does not enter into derivative transactions. The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk, credit risk and foreign exchange risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks.

Note 14: Financial risk management (cont’d)

Net Fair Value

The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements represents their respective net fair values, determined in accordance with the accounting policies disclosed in Note 26.

Credit Risk Exposure

The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is the carrying amount of those assets as disclosed in the statement of financial position. There are no historical default rates in respect of receivables. Cash balances and term deposits are held with financial institutions of minimum AA ratings.

The Group applies the AASB 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables.

To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 12 month before 1 July 2019 and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables. The Group identified the GDP and unemployment in which it sells its goods and services to be the most relevant factors, and accordingly adjusts the historical loss rates based on expected changes in these factors.

Trade receivables are 100% credit impaired when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan with the group and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of greater than 120 days past due.

On that basis, the loss allowance at the amount equal to the expected lifetime credit losses under the simplified approach as at 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2019 was determined as follows for both trade receivables:

1 July 2018	Current	More	More	More	Credit	Total
		Than 30	Than 60	Than 90	Impaired
		Days	Days	Days
		Past Due	Past Due	Past Due
Expected loss rate	2.4%	3.3%	5.4%	9.3%	100%
Gross carrying amount of
trade receivables	$5,317,088	$77,114	$440,594	$332,427	$364,038	$6,531,261
Loss allowance	$128,293	$25,304	$23,682	$30,923	$364,038	$572,240

		Than 30	Than 60	Than 90	Impaired
		Days	Days	Days

Note 14: Financial risk management (cont’d)

Foreign Exchange Risk

The Group has transactions in currencies other than Australian Dollars which carry receivables and payables in the respective currency. These financial instruments are not hedged. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period, expressed in Australian dollars, was as follows:

	30 June 2019	30 June 2018
	USD $ EUR $ GBP $	USD $ EUR $ GBP $
Cash Trade and other debtors Trade and other payables Exchangerates	460,118 399,420 225,390 1,154,262 633,859 1,355,997 (2,654,886) (6,011) (60,301)	254,622 519,488 70,887 2,806,817 1,745,707 242,354 (4,057,378) (4,824) (199,319)
	(1,040,506) 1,027,268 1,521,086	(995,939) 2,260,371 113,922
	0.70 0.62 0.55	0.74 0.63 0.56

Interest Rate Risk

The Group's loan and lease arrangements are subject to fixed interest rates and therefore would not have been impacted by any increase/decrease in interest rates during the current year.

Profit is sensitive to higher/lower interest income from cash and cash equivalents and term deposits as a result of changes in interest rates. At year end the Group’s bank account was earning interest of 1.50 per cent (2018:1.50 per cent).

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Board's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that the Group will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. As at 30 June 2019 and the date of this report, the Group has sufficient liquid assets to meet its financial obligations.

Sensitivity Analysis

Interest Rate Risk

The Group's loan and lease arrangements are subject to fixed interest rates and therefore would not have been impacted by any increase/decrease in interest rates during the current year. Accordingly, an increase in interest rates would not have impacted the Group's interest expense.

Movements in interest rates on the Group’s bank accounts and term deposits would not have a significant

impact on the Group’s results for the year.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

Based on the financial instruments held at 30 June 2019, had the Australian dollar weakened by 5 per cent against the US Dollar, Euro and British Sterling, with all other variables held constant, the Group’s pre-tax results for the year would have been $79,360 better (2018: $72,545 higher). If the Australian dollar had strengthened the corresponding impact would be a reduction in pre-tax results by the same amount.

Price Risk

Investments held are not listed or traded in active markets and therefore no price risk arises.

Note 15: Capital management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to:

safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders; and
maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

Under the terms of the major borrowing facilities with Bankwest that were entered into in December 2018, the Group is required to comply with the following financial covenants:

the Debtors/Gross Debt must at all times be greater than or equal to 2 times;
tangible net worth must be greater than or equal to $10,000,000; and
coverage tests – DTI Group Ltd and the guarantor must ensure that combined EBITDA for the preceding 12-month period and combined total assets are at least 90% of the Consolidated Group’s EBITDA and Consolidated Group’s total assets respectively.

The guarantor is defined as Virtual Observer Pty Ltd and DTI EMEA Limited.

below 90%. As the tangible net worth of $5,015,707 and coverage test falls below the requirement to support the current bank guarantee arrangement, the Group is not in compliance with these covenants at 30 June 2019. However, Bankwest has provided a waiver for this non-compliance until the next review in September 2019.

These represent total number of shares to be issued under the DESP.

Note 18: Capital and leasing commitments

Leased assets classified as finance leases are recognised as assets. The amount initially brought to account is the present value of minimum lease payments. Finance leased assets are amortised on a diminishing value basis over the estimated useful life of the asset.

Finance lease payments are allocated between interest expense and reduction of lease liability over the term of the lease. The interest expense is determined by applying the interest rate implicit in the lease to the outstanding lease liability at the beginning of each lease payment period. Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee, are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a straightline basis over the period of the lease.

(a) Finance lease commitments

The Company signed two motor vehicle leases commencing in April 2014 and three motor vehicle leases commencing in November 2014. The leases are with Capital Finance Australia Ltd for a period of five years with lease payments paid monthly in advance. There are no terms of renewal, purchase options or escalation clauses in respect of the leases.

In December 2015 and April 2016, DTI negotiated chattel mortgage loans with the ANZ bank to finance the purchase of specialised technical equipment for R&D. In prior year, the total amount utilised under the facility was $112,966 at interest rates of 3.99% and 3.90% respectively. The loans were fully repaid at 30 June 2019.

Note 19: Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group recorded a loss after tax of $9.4 million for the year ended 30 June 2019 (2018: $11.4 million loss) and had operating cash outflows of $0.96 million (2018: $0.31 million).

At 30 June 2019, its trade working capital (excluding cash, contract assets, contract costs, contract liabilities, provisions and borrowings) decreased by $5.2 million to $3.5 million (2018: $8.7 million), and the Group’s cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.1 million to $2.0 million (2018: $5.1 million). At 30 June 2019, the Group is not in compliance with its banking covenant in relation to its bank guarantee. The Group obtained a waiver from the bank for this (refer to Note 15 and 18). These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of the following measures undertaken by management:

The Group is expected to receive an additional $3.0 million of working capital from capital raising subsequent to year end (refer Note 21);
The Group has $3.5 million of working capital as at 30 June 2019 to fund its working capital requirements until the completion of capital raising;
The Group has sufficient cash at the date of this report to deal with the consequence on the noncompliance of its banking covenants;
The Group is focused on improving commercial terms to reduce future working capital requirement and profitability; and
The Group has recently commenced a turnaround plan and following execution of this plan, they expect to produce positive cash flow from operations.

The directors believe that there are reasonable grounds that the Group will continue as a going concern. Should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, nor to amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern.

Note 20: Contingent liabilities

There were no contingent liabilities or assets as at 30 June 2019.

Note 21: Events occurring after the reporting period

On 20 August 2019, DTI announced it proposes to make a 5 for 9 non-renounceable entitlement offer to raise approximately $3 million via the issue of approximately 119.6 million new shares at 2.5 cents per share (Entitlement Offer). The Entitlement Offer will be underwritten by Finico Pty Ltd and UIL Limited who are major shareholders of the Company. The proceeds of the capital raising will provide necessary working capital and to strengthen the Company’s balance sheet for future growth. Pursuant to the Underwriting Deeds, the Underwriters also agreed to advance the Underwriter Loans ($810,552 from UIL and $971,684 from Finico) to the Company on 20 August 2019, the repayment of which will be satisfied and offset by the Company via the issue of 32,422,088 New Shares to UIL and 38,867,358 New Shares to Finico under the proposed Entitlement Offer.

Basic Earnings / (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:

the profit or loss attributable to owners of the company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares;
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year,

adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.

Diluted Earnings / (Loss) per Share

Diluted earnings/(loss) per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:

the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares; and

(i) The Group was required to revise its impairment methodology under AASB 9 for it trade receivables balance. The impact of the change in impairment methodology on the Group’s trade receivables and retained earnings is shown above.

(ii) Accounting for project-based service

In previous reporting period, the consideration received for non-refundable retainer fee is recognised as revenue when invoice is raised with associated cost capitalised under inventory. Under AASB 15, the non-refundable retainer fee is reversed to contract liabilities and only release to revenue based on the progress of the project when the project commenced.

The associated costs relating to cost to fulfil the project contract is previously recognised in inventories. Under AASB15, these costs are reclassified to contract costs. These costs are amortised based on the progress of the related projects, consistent with the pattern of recognition of the associated revenue.

Note 26: Summary of significant accounting policies

Statement of Compliance

This financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and notes of the Group. The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The Group’s financial statements and accompanying notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

DTI is a for-profit company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares have been publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange from 9 December 2014.

The financial statements were authorised as per the Directors’ declaration on page 73 dated 30 August 2019.

Basis of Preparation

The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. In the application of IFRS management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Refer to Note 26(g) for future disclosure on significant accounting estimates and judgement.

Accounting Policies

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events is reported.

The accounting policies set out below have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 and the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018.

The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial report:

(a) Principles of consolidation

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group 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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

==> picture [78 x 14] intentionally omitted <==

Note 26: Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

(b) Classification and initial measurement of financial assets (AASB 9 Financial Instruments)

Accounting Policy

The Group has adopted AASB 9 Financial Instruments with a date of initial application of 1 July 2018.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments replaces AASB 139’s ‘ Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ requirements. It makes major changes to the previous guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets and introduces an ‘expected credit loss’ model for impairment of financial assets. When adopting AASB 9, the Group elected not to restate prior periods. Rather, differences arising from the adoption of AASB 9 in relation to classification, measurement, and impairment are recognised in opening retained earnings as at 1 July 2018.

As a result of the adoption of AASB 9, the impairment of financial assets using the expected credit loss model applies now to the Group’s trade receivables. For contract assets arising from AASB 15 and trade receivables, the Group applies a simplified model of recognising lifetime expected credit loss as these items do not have a significant financing component.

Recognition and derecognition

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.

Financial assets are classified according to their business model and the characteristics of their contractual cash flows and are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable).

Subsequent measurement of financial assets

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified into the following four categories:

Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
Equity instruments at FVTOCI

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

==> picture [78 x 14] intentionally omitted <==

Note 26: Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables which is presented within other expenses.

Financial assets at amortised cost

Financial assets with contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest and held within a business model of ‘hold to collect’ contractual cash flows are accounted for at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The Group’s trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.

Impairment of financial assets

AASB 9’s new forward looking impairment model applies to Group’s investments at amortised cost and debt instruments at FVTOCI. The application of the new impairment model depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

Trade and other receivables and contract assets

The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other receivables as well as contract assets and records the loss allowance at the amount equal to the expected lifetime credit losses. In using this practical expedient, the Group uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward looking information to calculate the expected credit losses using a provision matrix (Refer Note 14). Impact of the new impairment model

For assets in the scope of the AASB 9 impairment model, impairment losses are generally expected to increase. The Group has determined that the application of AASB 9’s impairment requirements at 1 July 2018 results in an additional impairment allowances as follows.

	$
Loss allowance at 30 June 2018 under AASB 139	364,038
Additional impairment recognised at 1 July 2018 on:
Trade and other receivables as at 30 June 2018 (Refer to note 14 and note 25)	208,202
Loss allowance at 1 July 2018 under AASB 9	572,240

(c) Foreign currency

Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’).

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

Note 26: Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in profit or loss. They are deferred in equity if they relate to qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges or are attributable to part of the net investment in a foreign operation.

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss in finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement on a net basis within other income or other expenses.

Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss.

For example, translation differences on non-monetary assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss and translation differences on non-monetary assets such as equities classified as available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Group companies

The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement of financial position;
income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and
all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

(d) Goods and services tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except:

where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the item of expense; or
for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables.

Note 26: Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows.

(e) Comparative Figures

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

(f) New accounting standards and Australian accounting interpretations

New and amended accounting standards adopted

New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The Group has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time for their annual reporting period commencing 1 July 2018:

AASB 9 Financial Instruments
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
AASB 2016-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions
AASB 2017-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Transfers to Investment Property, Annual Improvements 2014-2016 Cycle and Other Amendments

The Group had to change its accounting policies following the adoption of AASB 9 and AASB 15. This is disclosed in Note 2 and Note 26.

Other than AASB 9 and AASB 15, the other amendments listed above did not have any impact on the amounts recognised in prior and current periods.

New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted

30 June 2019 reporting periods and have not yet been applied in the financial report. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.

AASB Amendment	Affected Standard(s)	Nature of Change to Accounting Policy	Impact	Application Date of Standard	Application Date for Group (Year ended)
AASB 16	Leases	AASB 16 eliminates the operating and finance lease classifications for leases currently accounted for under_AASB 117_ _Leases._It instead requires an entity to bring most leases onto its balance sheet in a similar way to how existing finance leases are treated under AASB 117. An entity will be required to recognise a lease liability and a right of use asset in its balance sheet for most leases. There are some optional exemptions for leases with a period of 12 months or less and for low value leases.	To the extent that the entity, as lessee, has operating leases outstanding at the date of initial application, 1 January 2019, right-of-use assets will be recognised for the amount of the unamortised portion of the useful life, and the lease liabilities will be recognised at the present value of the outstanding lease payments. Thereafter, earnings before interest, depreciation, amortisation and tax (EBITDA) will increase because operating lease expenses currently included in EBITA will be recognised instead as amortisation of the right-of-use asset, and interest expense on the lease liability. However, there will be an overall reduction in net profit before tax in the early years of a lease because the amortisation and interest charges will exceed the current straight line expense incurred under_AASB 117_ Leases. This trend will reverse in the later years. The Group will make a more detailed assessment of the impact overthenext12 months.	1 Jan 2019	30 Jun 2020

Note 26: Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

(g) Significant accounting estimates and judgements

Revenue recognition

The recognition of revenue detailed in Note 2 relating to project-based services is subject to the management’s judgement on measurement of progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation using the input method. The Group also did not recognise revenue when management has determined that it was not highly probable that a portion of the revenue will not reverse.

When management determine multiple distinct performance obligations in a contract, transaction price is allocated based on stand-alone selling price of the product or service sold. The stand-alone selling price is estimated on the basis of the retail price.

Inventory obsolescence

Inventories are accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy detailed in Note 8. Where the net realisable value of inventory is lower than its cost the Group recognises a provision for inventory obsolescence. At 30 June 2019 management has determined $2,668,910 (2018: $2,045,819) of impairment is required for inventory where net realisable value is lower than its cost.

Development costs capitalised

Development costs are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. The net development costs has been subject to impairment testing. If an impairment indication arises, the recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment loss is recognised to the extent that the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount.

Impairment

As at 30 June 2019, the market capitalisation of DTI did not exceed its net assets, which is an indicator of asset impairment under accounting standards. For the purpose of impairment testing the intangibles are allocated to one cash-generating unit (CGU) on the group level. The recoverable amount of the CGU was then determined using the value in use model which requires the use of key assumption and judgments relating to future revenues, anticipated gross margin, growth rates expected and discount rate. The calculations use cash flow projects based on financial budgets approved by the board covering a period of five years. The Board determined that the underlying assumptions supporting the impairment were sufficiently sensitive to create uncertainty of the model outcomes. As a result, the Board has taken the decision to impair the balance of capitalised development costs by $1,493,687 (2018: $5,163,573) to a nil amount.

Amortisation of intangible assets

Intangible assets are amortised over their useful lives (5 to 10 years). Amortisation commences when the asset is available for commercial sale.

Share-based payment transactions

The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the dated at which they are granted. The fair value is the ASX share price.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the members of DTI Group Ltd

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of DTI Group Ltd (the Company or DTI) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019, 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, and notes to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

(i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its financial 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. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group 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.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

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

Material uncertainty related to going concern

We draw attention to Note 19 in the financial report which describes the events and conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee. BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd and BDO Australia Ltd are members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited by guarantee, and form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.

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. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Recoverability of Inventory

*Key audit matter*	*How the matter was addressed in our audit*
As disclosed in Note 8 of the financial report, an impairment of inventory and provision for	Our procedures included, but were not limited to:

Key audit matter As disclosed in Note 8 of the financial report, an impairment of inventory and provision for inventory obsolescence was recognised.

Performing a price test on the cost of a sample of inventory by agreeing the purchase price as per supplier invoice to the inventory listing; and
· Performing a net realisable value test on a sample of inventory by obtaining the latest sales invoice of the samples and assessing that the sale price of the samples exceeds its cost price;

This area is considered a key audit matter given the nature of inventories, the carrying value of inventory and the extent of management estimates and judgements involved in assessing inventory impairment and provisioning for obsolescence.

Refer to Note 8 and Note 26 of the financial report for a description of the accounting policy and significant estimates and judgements applied to these arrangements.

Assessing and testing management’s position paper and assessment over slow moving and obsolete inventory of the Group; and
Assessing the adequacy of financial report disclosures.

==> picture [77 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Key audit matter

DTI generates a significant portion of its revenue from customer contracts for the provision, installation and maintenance of equipment as disclosed in Note 2.

The group has applied AASB 15 “Revenue from contracts with customers” (‘AASB 15’) from 1 July 2018 using the cumulative effect method.

Revenue recognition was determined to be a key audit matter as this area involves significant judgments and estimates made by management including whether contracts contain multiple performance obligations which should be accounted for separately and the most appropriate method of recognition of revenue for the identified performance obligations. This comprises allocation of consideration to the individual performance obligations based on its standalone pricing and whether the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time or overtime. Furthermore performance obligations that are satisfied overtime requires assessment of the degree of completion of the project based contracts.

The Group’s disclosures in relation to its revenue accounting policy and significant judgements applied in revenue recognition are disclosed in Note 2 and Note 26.

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Our procedures included, but were not limited to the following:
Discussing with management and critically assessing the financial impact of the new revenue standard and changes to the Group’s revenue recognition policies on transition 1 July 2018;
Reviewing DTI’s revenue recognition policies across all revenue streams and ensuring compliance with the accounting standard;
Obtaining and reviewing a sample of key contracts, considering the terms and conditions, performance obligations of these arrangements, its stand-alone pricing and assessing the accounting treatment under AASB 15;
Challenging management’s assessment of the performance obligations promised to customers within a contract;
Vouching a sample of revenue and other revenue transactions to supporting documentation;
Performing cut-off testing to ensure revenue is recorded in the relevant period;
Performing detailed analytical procedures over revenue, cost of sales and margins including comparison to prior period and BDO expectations to identify unusual trends or onerous projects;
Enquiring and reviewing credit notes issued post year end which relates to year ending 30 June 2019;
Reviewing contract balances to ascertain that they has been accounted for accurately;
Reviewing disclosures in Note 2 and Note 26 in the financial report and ensuring compliance with the accounting standard.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, 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.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors 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.

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

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

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 an 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 the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
