REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

COVID- 19 IMPACT

In addition to major disruptions in the US for much of the past year, India and France are good examples, where two major companies, one in each country, had incorporated EdenCrete® products into a number of their standard concrete mix designs shortly before each country was locked down, and both companies were effectively closed for most of the financial year.

However, during a period when the lockdowns were lifted, Eden was able to receive from Godrej Constructions, a large Indian construction company, its maiden EdenCrete® order, although a further lockdown shortly after greatly restricted further activity during the remainder of the year.

Encouragingly, increases in annual year-on-year sales of all products were achieved during a continuing, very difficult period, in spite of all of Eden’s markets having been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and as restrictions gradually ease and more normal activity returns, considerable sales growth is expected across all products.

EdenCrete®

USA

Sales

For the full year (FY2021) however, the EdenCrete® sales still grew by 17% on a year on year basis, in spite of the significant global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and a large order for US$535,000 (approx. A$735,000) for a Georgia highway repair project on the I-675/75 Interstate Highway being delayed until FY2022.

Shotcrete and Concrete Pumping Markets

Following success in Colorado, the EdenCrete® market for shotcrete and concrete pumping applications in other States has grown, consistently delivering stronger, cheaper shotcrete at lower pressures, with far less waste and dust. Additionally, often a significant percentage of the Ordinary Portland Cement can be replaced with far lower Greenhouse Gas-footprint fly-ash.

Since early 2021, growth in shotcrete and concrete pumping applications has occurred. In Georgia, one new shotcrete customer is regularly using EdenCrete® in a range of applications, including the construction of concrete swimming pools and hardscapes. Two other Georgia customers are also trialing EdenCrete® in shotcrete mixes for swimming pool construction, earth stablisation and shoring.

The US market growth follows the longer-term progress made in the Colorado shotcrete market and concrete pumping applications over the past two years, that enabled Eden to develop a significant, repeatable market that consistently delivering stronger, cheaper shotcrete at lower pressures, with far less waste and dust and often with a significant amount of Ordinary Portland Cement being replaced with lower Greenhouse Gas-footprint flyash or blast furnace slag.

CDOT- Central 70 Shotcrete Project

During the year, the use of EdenCrete® in the shotcrete used on the major CDOT Central 70 project, that started in mid-2018, continued (see Figures 1-2). This project involves the reconstruction of 10 miles of the I-70 Interstate Highway through central Denver, including sinking it in part, and establishing of a park above it. Construction is anticipated to run into the end of the first quarter of 2022.

The Central 70 Project was estimated, at commencement, to require between 6,000 -10,000 cubic yards of the shotcrete. The full strength, EdenCrete® shotcrete mix requires less cement that will result in a reduction of between 413 metric tonnes and 689 tonnes replaced by between an extra 93 tonnes and 154 tonnes of fly ash, and an additional 2% aggregate.

Fly ash, a waste product from coal fired power stations, has a zero Greenhouse Gas Footprint, and sells in the Colorado for approximately 50% of the cost of cement. Producing one tonne of cement generates approximately 0.927 tonnes of CO2. The shotcrete in this project is cheaper and has a far lower Greenhouse Gas footprint, delivering the following benefits:

  • A reduction of between 382 tonnes and 630 tonnes in the total CO2 from the reduced cement;

  • A net cost saving of more than $3 /cubic yard of concrete (after including the costs of the EdenCrete® and additional fly ash and aggregate) by replacing cement with fly ash.

Shotcrete- Other applications

Shotcrete applications using EdenCrete® has been one of the major growth areas during the past 12 months. In addition to the I-70 project in Denver, shotcrete has been used or trialled in Colorado, Georgia, New Jersey, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah and Arizona for a range of applications including swimming pools and retaining walls, many sculpted like natural rock (see Figures 3 and 4).

US Precast Market

Trials using EdenCrete® have taken place during the year with two companies in different States for different pre-cast market applications. Whilst no sales have yet occurred, Eden is confident that sales are likely to follow in due course after the full evaluation process is completed.

GEORGIA

Georgia Department of Transportation Projects

Sales Revenue from GDOT Highway Repair Projects

In FY 2021, the data from GDOT projects that used EdenCrete® (not including I-675 project) was:

  • 9 GDOT highway repair projects undertaken;

  • 30,320 gallons (114,773 litres) of EdenCrete® was used; and

  • US$758,000 (A$1,042,000) total sales revenue was generated.

FY 2022 revenue from GDOT repair projects is estimated to exceed US$1million (A$1.37 million)

Federal Highway Authority/ GDOT Funded I-675/75 Repair Project

The I-675/75 Repair Project in Georgia that was delayed during the 2021 financial year, alone is estimated to require approximately 10,700 cubic yards of concrete that will incorporate 21,400 gallons of EdenCrete® with an aggregate value of US$535,000 (approx. A$735,000). Although the contract for the project was awarded in April 2021, the project was delayed due to a shortage of cement.

Eden received the purchase order in August 2021, and the project commenced in late September 2021. On-site volumetric truck batched concrete will be used. In September 2021 Eden installed a 6,100 gallon tank and delivered 5,000 gallons of EdenCrete® (see Figure 5).

been included in three GPA small concrete repair projects, including being added by GPA contracted engineers to the specifications for two of these contracts and being included by a contractor in a third, in areas of the port that are exposed to harsh operating conditions and heavy wear.

Eden has also completed the development with a number of companies, of various EdenCrete® enhanced concrete mix designs for use in a range of port, marine and coastal applications.

High Performance, Lower Cost, Lower Carbon Footprint Concrete

Eden is currently developing a high performance, lower cost, lower carbon footprint concrete mix using EdenCrete®, that will be suitable for possible use in all GDOT concrete paving applications. Initial trials have been promising and Eden is hopeful that this project will be successful, as it could help open up access to not only a wider range of infrastructure projects in Georgia but also all across the US.

COLORADO

Denver Department of Transportation and Infrastructure Trial

In November 2020, senior engineers from Denver Department of Transportation Infrastructure (DDOTI), formerly called Denver Public Works, delivered a very positive evaluation of 3-year long trial of EdenCrete® in concrete road when exposed to heavy vehicle traffic and heavy and often repeated dosages of de-icing salts. The evaluation was reported to Eden in a letter dated 24 November 2020 from DDOTI that included the following:

“The purpose of this letter is to provide a summary of our experience with EdenCrete. In 2017 several panels of Speer Boulevard were replaced with concrete that had two different doses of EdenCrete. Control panels were also placed on Speer Boulevard. The test section was on the southbound outside lane, south of 6th Avenue. Representatives from EdenCrete were onsite during construction to assist the contractor which ensured a successful project. I would like to thank EdenCrete for the support and help with this project.

During the inspection, I noted that the EdenCrete concrete had performed exceptionally well over the last three years. This was particularly remarkable given the very high volume of vehicle use and associated surface abrasion coupled with the heavy and often repeated magnesium chloride applications. The test sections looked great. I observed no scaling or cracking in the EdenCrete sections, while the reference sections, with no EdenCrete, were exhibiting load and plastic shrinkage cracking and scaling.

OAM1 has included EdenCrete through statement in the specifications that admixtures not listed may be used with approval of the product manager. We will continue to use the product in areas where a high level of reliability is required. We are extremely pleased with the EdenCrete product and look forward to continuing our evaluation of the product.”

This assessment by a government department after a 3-year field trial, tested under tough conditions, is important to the future marketing of EdenCrete® in places subject to snow and freezing winter conditions.

CDOT I-70 - Vail Pass – Long Term Major Paving Trial

Following several years of planning, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) commenced a major concrete paving trial on the I-70 Interstate Highway at Vail Pass in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado (see Figure 6). The trial is evaluating the comparative performance of three different concrete mix designs in the harsh and challenging conditions experienced at approximately 3,050 meters elevation.

==> picture [243 x 181] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 6- Vail Pass Trial on I-70

Historically, CDOT’s high-altitude designs require asphalt pavement due to its flexibility, the ease of placement and repair, as well as the cost. Their arguments against concrete pavement have been increased cost, long construction cycles, and extended lane closures creating unsafe traffic conditions. Further, the soil in the mountains is notorious for movement under load, and a more flexible material such as asphalt pavement has been assumed to perform better than concrete with regards to cracking.

Typically, high mountain passes like Vail expose pavements to severe winter weather and freeze thaw cycles that require the application of harsh de-icer chemicals. Coupled with this, semi-trailers using snow chains and passenger vehicles with studded snow tires for

driving safely in icy conditions create pavement rutting, a dangerous safety hazard for the motoring public. CDOT is considering the economic benefits of the extended service life from the use concrete pavement instead of asphalt and is evaluating a control mix, a silica fume mix and a mix dosed with EdenCrete®.

A 4500 psi (31 MPa) exterior paving mix was specified as the base design for the control. Their second mix used the same control mix but replaced 7% of the cement with silica fume. The third mix included EdenCrete® at 2 gal/ yd3 (9.9 l/m3) without silica fume. The concrete pavement sections will be evaluated over time, likely to include at least two winters, for surface wear, cracking, scaling, and rutting.

First Volumetric Truck Batching

EdenCrete® was used for the first time in a volumetric truck batching and pumping project in November 2020 at Loveland, in Colorado (see Figure 7). Volumetric concrete is batched on site.

==> picture [242 x 115] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 7. Volumetric truck mixing at the Loveland project site

Whilst not a large project, it was important because volumetric truck batching has a growing market share in the residential, and small order markets and, importantly for DOT projects across the US. These projects requiring volumetric truck batching services are often in rural or more remote locations that may not be easily supplied by ready-mix trucks supplied from plant batched concrete production. Truck based, volumetric concrete batching is a growing market sector and its importance is reflected by number of ready-mix suppliers that are also suppliers of volumetric mixed concrete across the US.

Of relevance, volumetric truck batching is being used on the GDOT US$535,000 I-675 Interstate highway repair project in Georgia that commenced in September 2021.

concrete were removed and replaced with EdenCrete®. After 12 months, these sections showed no deterioration and, as a result, EdenCrete® was used in the replacement of the next five adjacent panels as part of an ongoing renovation project (see Figure 8).

Moffat Tunnel Restoration

EdenCrete® was specified in shotcrete that was to be used in the restoration of the badly deteriorated East Portal and some the interior tunnel lining of the Moffat Tunnel, an operational tunnel that passes under the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, connecting Denver with the West Coast (see Figure 9). EdenCrete® was specified in the shotcrete to improve durability and resistance to abrasion, and to extend the life cycle. The project took place after the end of the 2021 financial year.

Wichita Carpark Project

EdenCrete® was used in a significant construction project, that includes a new 505-bay carpark and 10-story tower during the year in Wichita, Kansas. The two-phase project, began with the construction of the new five-story private carpark building, including 17,000 square feet of streetlevel retail space (see Figures 10 and 11) and phase two will be the construction of The Tower, a 10-story building.

==> picture [241 x 171] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 10 Wichita, Kansas Project.

More than US$30,000 worth of EdenCrete® was included in the more than 2,000 m[3 ] concrete installed in the decks, ramps, sidewalks and entryways of the new carpark, to deliver improved crack reduction, abrasion and scaling resistance and better pumpability. Pump pressures were measured at around 10 MPa whilst the required pumping pressure without EdenCrete®, would usually be in the range of 20-22.5 MPa.

SILENT PARTNER INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENT

Eden signed a long-term agreement (“the Agreement”) under which Eden US agreed to sell in aggregate US$48 million worth of EdenCrete®, and potentially other products, over the next 8 years to Silent Partner International, Inc. (“SPI”), a US company based in Florida. The products will be used in the construction and maintenance of a number of proposed facilities that SPI plans to build in the USA and in other countries. There is no minimum quantity of EdenCrete® that SPI must purchase stipulated in the Agreement, and there are no penalties if lesser quantities are purchased, but Eden may terminate the Agreement. The first Facility is to be constructed in West Virginia.

SPI has developed a proprietary design that is to be used in the proposed facilities for mitigation of the impact of a broad spectrum of radio frequency (“RF”) interference and/or electromagnetic pulses (“EMP”) that can result from natural occurrences such as solar flares, or human generated causes such as nuclear explosions (“the Purpose”). The proposed facilities will be designed for energy generation coupled with one or more of desalination, IT/data storage, aquaculture and/ or agri-tech (“the Facilities”). In addition to increasing the strength and durability of the concrete, the EdenCrete® and other products are to be included to help SPI achieve the Purpose and mitigate the impact of RF interference and EMP.

Over the past year, Eden has attended several meetings reviewing certain aspects of the project with some of the construction partners appointed by SPI for this first project. Details of all the construction partners are listed in the SPI website. Eden has been informed that construction is planned to start later in 2021 but the precise date is yet to be advised.

AUSTRALIA

The first significant sale to Parchem Construction Supplies Pty Ltd occurred during the year for US$58,278 for a 20-foot container load of EdenCrete® products, comprising mostly EdenCrete® and a limited quantity of EdenCrete®Pz, that was supplied from Eden’s plant in Littleton, Colorado, USA. This order was a very welcome development and follows significant interest in EdenCrete® products being shown by a range of companies in Australia and New Zealand, that in turn has resulted in a number of successful trials of EdenCrete® products being carried out by potential customers.

After extensive communications over more than 12 months, NICNAS, the Australian Government body that assesses chemical products that are proposed to be manufactured in, or imported into, Australia, completed the formal assessment of the EdenCrete® products and NICNAS approved the importation for sale and use in Australia of the EdenCrete® products.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

INDIA

Eden recorded its first sale to the construction division of Godrej & Boyce Manufacturing Co. Ltd (“Godrej”), to supply it with EdenCrete®Pz for use in its ready-mix concrete operation that is run by Godrej Construction, the construction division of Godrej. The Godrej Group is diversified, operating in India and internationally, supplying over one billion customers and generating annual revenue of over US$4 billion. Godrej operates nine ready-mix plants that supply concrete to three major Indian cities with a combined population of over 50 million people. Six of these plants are located in greater Mumbai, the second largest city in India (and seventh largest in the world), with a population over 30 million people. Two of the plants are located in Pune with a population of 6.4 million people, and one plant is in Bengaluru (formerly called Bangalore), with a population of 13.4 million people.

This initial order from Godrej was a significant development for the EdenCrete® products, and follows the successful completion in February 2020, before the first COVID 19 lockdown restrictions in India, of a successful, extended trial and development programme conducted by Godrej with assistance from Eden.

Godrej Construction has developed several new, standard ready-mix concrete mixes, each incorporating EdenCrete®Pz, that have greater strength, lower Greenhouse Gas footprints, and incorporate higher proportions of cheaper, readily available Indian fly ash (a waste by-product from Indian coal fired power plants), and lower proportions of more expensive Ordinary Portland Cement.

As Godrej rolls out these EdenCrete®Pz concrete mixes across its various plants occurs, further, larger, repeat orders are expected. The Godrej Group one of India’s most respected and prestigious group of companies operating in one of the largest, and fastest growing concrete markets in the world, and this initial order from Godrej represents the first international order (outside of USA) to be received by Eden for an EdenCrete® product that is to be used in commercial applications (as opposed to trials).

ISRAEL

During the year, Eden received its first small order from Israel for EdenCrete® products for testing. To date no further order has been received but communications with the purchaser are still ongoing.

Indian OptiBlend® Sales during FY2021

This significant increase took the total Indian OptiBlend® sales for the 2021 Financial Year to a very impressive total of approximately AUD $1,033,000, a year on year increase of an exceptional 508%.

The primary driver at present, being outside of the winter months, is the significantly lower price of natural gas for industrial and commercial customers averaging almost Rs 40 (plus or minus Rs5) for the same quantity of energy delivered by diesel fuel that would cost approximately Rs 90 (plus or minus Rs5). The secondary driver of this sales growth is Government regulations aimed at reducing air pollution.

In October 2020, the Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority (EPCA), a body mandated by the Indian Supreme Court, banned the use of non-essential diesel generator sets, with effect from 15 October 2020, in Delhi (the National Capital Territory), Ghaziabad, Noida, Faridabad and Gurugram, that collectively comprise the National Capital Region (NCR region) during the winter period.

This ban supported similar policies to reduce the air pollution that were earlier detailed in the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP), which, to date, State governments in Haryana, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu have already adopted and are considered likely to be adopted in further States. NCAP approved the retrofitting of diesel-powered generators for partial natural gas usage (i.e. using a fuel mixture of diesel and natural gas), a cost-effective way to convert a great number of existing diesel generator sets across India to a partial natural gas operation, creating a major opportunity for OptiBlend® dual fuel systems.

As a result of all these developments, it is considered highly likely that these various decisions and regulations will significantly extend the geographical footprint of the Indian OptiBlend® market, as piped natural gas supplies are progressively rolled out across India.

Eden India believes the growth in demand for its OptiBlend® systems in India, that it has experienced over the past year, is likely to continue for the longer term and spread to other regions of India apart from greater Delhi, as the rollout of natural gas pipelines extends to new areas, driven by the compelling market drivers of the far lower cost natural gas and the various Government regulations and decisions.

US OptiBlend® Sales during FY2021

The US orders received during whole of FY 2021 decreased by 34% on a year on year basis from A$754,000 to A$495,000 (in part due to changes in the currency exchange rates). However, this drop in US OptiBlend sales during the year was very quickly reversed in early FY2022, with the sales in the first 4 weeks of July already reaching approx. A$1,061,005 (US$781,640), exceeding the total annual US OptiBlend sales levels during each of FY2020 and FY2021. This is understood to have been largely driven by the Texas power crisis in February 2021.

EdenPlast®

A Japanese plastics company commenced testing an Eden prepared, concentrated EdenPlast® master batch in which 38% by weight of Eden’s carbon nanotubes were dispersed into the other company’s raw polymers. The Japanese company is currently testing a range of diluted CNT-enriched polymer samples containing a range of concentrations of CNT between 0.5% and 3% (see Figure 12).

==> picture [242 x 79] intentionally omitted <==

The new project aims to develop a method to produce novel drawn polymer fibres incorporating aligned carbon nanotubes within the polymer. Such polymer fibres will show significant directional strength and stiffness and can themselves be used for reinforcing thermoplastics to make high performance, “smart”, composites. There will specifically be focus on recyclability of the CNT reinforced fibres. This development could have significant commercial and environmental benefits as existing thermosetting composites are not readily recyclable and require high levels (>30%) of reinforcing fibres.

The targeted outcomes of this project, if successful, will be a novel technology for making high strength and stiffness polymer fibres reinforced with Eden’s CNTs, expanding their potential use in thermoplastic composites. These new polymer fibres could also enable down-sizing of highvolume products that may well be suitable for use in high value automotive or aerospace products.

Hydrogen

During the year Eden was approached by several companies exploring possible collaborations using Eden’s hydrogen capabilities. Preliminary talks occurred but were not progressed. However, Eden remains open to such a collaboration, provided it will not compromise Eden’s existing technologies or other operations.

.

Annual Report 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report complies with all International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in their entirety.

The financial report covers the consolidated Group of Eden Innovations Ltd and its controlled entities as at and for the year ended 30 June 2021. Eden Innovations Ltd is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Group is a for-profit entity and primarily is involved in clean technology solutions.

The financial report was authorised for issue on 29 September 2021 by the Board of Directors.

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

Basis of Preparation

The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all years presented.

Reporting Basis and Conventions

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied. These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the parent’s functional currency. The subsidiaries’ functional currencies are USD and INR.

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The continuing applicability of the going concern basis of accounting is dependent upon the Group’s ability to source additional finance. Unless additional finance is received the Group may need to realise assets and settle liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts which could differ from the amounts at which they are stated in these financial statements.

Accounting Policies

a. Principles of Consolidation

A controlled entity is any entity Eden Innovations Ltd 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. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 21 to the financial statements. All controlled entities have a June year-end.

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the parent entity.

b. Income Tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The Group has reported a net loss for the year of $5,798,759 (2020: $9,105,991), a cash outflow from operating activities of $5,547,527 (2020: $7,375,690) and a net working capital deficit of $1,085,283 (2020: surplus of $709,646). The directors are confident that the Group, subject to being able to raise further capital or debt funding, will be able to continue its operations as a going concern. Without such capital and or funding, the net loss for the year and the cash outflow from operating activities indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may

Eden Innovations Limited and Controlled Entities ABN 58 109 200 900

Annual Report 2021

Eden Innovations Ltd, Eden Innovations Holdings Pty Ltd and Eden Energy Holdings Pty Ltd, its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries, have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The Group notified the Australian Tax Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July 2005. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated group. The R&D tax rebate is recognised as income tax benefit upon receipt.

c. Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Costs are assigned on the basis of first-in, first-out.

d. Segment reporting

Segment results that are reported to the Group’s board of directors (the chief operating decision maker) include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

e. Employee Benefits

Provision is made for the Company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs.

f. Revenue

Revenue is recognised when or as the Group transfers control of products or provides services to a customer at the amount to which the Group expects to be entitled as the performance obligation is met. If the consideration includes a variable component, the expected consideration is adjusted for the estimated impact of the variable component at the point of recognition and re-estimated at every reporting period. Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.

g. Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at acquisition cost or manufacturing cost, including any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Group’s management.

The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount of these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

==> picture [242 x 19] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----

Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate
----- End of picture text -----

Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate
Plant and equipment 6 – 33% straight line
Buildings 4% straight line
Land Nil

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

h. Financial Instruments

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs.

Classification and subsequent measurement

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into the following categories: ◊ amortised cost

  • fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

  • equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)

  • debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).

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. The classification is determined by both the entity’s business model for managing the financial asset and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

ASX Code: EDE

25

Annual Report 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 (Continued)

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not designated as FVTPL):

  • they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets to collect its contractual cash flows

  • the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

After initial recognition, these are measured at a mortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The entity’s cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.

Trade and other receivables

The entity makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other receivables and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. In calculating, the entity uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking information to calculate the expected credit losses.

Classification and measurement of financial liabilities

The entity’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and borrowings. Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs.

Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument’s fair value that are reported in profit or loss are included within finance costs or finance income.

Derecognition

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.

Impairment

The Group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss.

i. Impairment of Assets

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

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

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

j. Intangibles

Research and development

Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.

Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual property, which includes trademarks and engineering knowledge, is included in the financial statements at cost.

Intellectual property and trademarks are only amortised or written down where the useful lives are limited or impaired by specific circumstances, in such cases amortisation is charged on a straight line basis over their useful lives and write downs are charged fully when incurred. The directors have assessed the useful life of the intellectual property and have determined that it has a finite useful life of 10 to 20 years. The intellectual property is amortised on a systematic basis matched to the expected future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

Annual Report 2021

k. Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.

Transaction and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Nonmonetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation currency are translated as follows:

  • assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;

  • income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the financial year; and

  • retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the Group’s foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period in which the operation is disposed. Intercompany loans are treated as investments for foreign currency translation purposes.

l. Equity-settled compensation

The Group operates an employee share option plan and performance rights plan. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options or performance rights granted.

m. Comparative Figures

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

n. Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity.

o. New accounting standards and interpretations

New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current year. The new and revised Standards and amendments thereof and Interpretations do not have any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts recognised in the Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.

Key Estimates — Impairment

The Group assesses impairment of finite intangible assets and property, plant & equipment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that may lead to impairment of assets. At the date of this report the Group has sufficient reason to believe that the Group’s intangible assets and property, plant & equipment are not impaired.

There is a significant risk of actual outcomes being different from those forecasted due to changes in economic or market conditions and events.

Key Estimates — Share-based payment transactions

The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity settled transactions with suppliers and employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments as at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a Black-Scholes model. Refer to Note 3b for the inputs to the Black-Scholes model.

Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of expenditure and share issues. There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior year.

NOTE 25: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

a. Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are liquidity risk and credit risk.

  • i. Liquidity Risk

The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate funding is maintained.

The remaining contractual maturities of the Group financial liabilities are:

maintained.
The remaining contractual maturities of the Group fnancial liabilities are:
12 months or less
1 year or more
Total

Credit risk

1,694,955

5,181,439
6,025,172
6,876,394

Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the company. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.

The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements.

The Group does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the company.

iii. Foreign currency risk

The Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies arising from the sale and purchase of goods and services in currencies other than the companies’ functional currency. The risk is measure using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting. At 30 June 2021, the effect on the loss and equity as a result of a 10% increase in the exchange rates, with all other variables remaining constant would be a decrease in loss by approximately $420,000 (2020: decrease of loss of $630,000) and a decrease in equity by approximately $440,000 (2020: $460,000). A 10% decrease in the exchange rates would result in an equal and opposite impact on the loss after tax and equity.

iv. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The group’s minimal exposure to interest rate risk, the only asset / liability affected by changes in market interest rates is Cash and cash equivalents. The Interest Bearing Liabilities of the Group are all fixed rate and will not fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

b. Financial Instruments

Net Fair Values

The aggregate net fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, at the balance date, are approximated by their carrying values.

Annual Report 2021

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Eden Innovations Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Eden Innovations Ltd (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“the Group"), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of 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 statements, 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 2021 and of its performance for the year then ended; 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 auditor independence requirements of 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 relating to going concern

Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 of the financial report, which indicates that the Group will require further funding in the next twelve months from the date of this report to fund its planned operating costs. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate 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.

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 matter described below to be the key audit matter to be communicated in our report.

Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit
matter
Impairment assessment of Intangible
assets and Plant and equipment
Refer to Note 11 (Property Plant and Equipment)
and Note 12 (Intangible Assets).
As at 30 June 2021 the Group’s EdenCrete® and
Optiblend®
cash
generating
units
(CGUs)
comprised Plant and equipment (P&E) and
Intangible Assets. The total carrying values of
P&E and Intangible Assets as at 30 June 2021
were,
respectively,
$10,607,478
(2020:
$11,999,422)
and
$9,123,044
(2020:
$8,223,113).
Impairment was assessed by the Group at the
CGU level by considering if impairment indicators
were present as at 30 June 2021. Management
determined that there were no such indicators of
impairment.
The impairment assessment for the Intangible
assets and Plant and equipment is a key audit
matter due to:

the significance of the Intangible assets and
Plant and equipment balances to the
statement of financial position; and

the judgement involved in the impairment
indicator assessment due to the need to make
estimates about future events and other
circumstances.
We performed the following procedures, amongst
others,
to
evaluate
the
Group's
impairment
assessment:

assessed management’s determination of the
Group’s CGUs based on our understanding of the
nature of the Group’s business and the economic
environment in which the segments operate. We
also analysed the internal reporting of the Group
to assess how earnings streams are monitored
and reported.

compared actual sales performance subsequent
to year end to forecast sales for the same period.

enquired of management and inspected a
selection of Board of Directors’ meeting minutes
to assess whether there were any:
-
observable indications that the respective
asset values have declined during the year
significantly more than would be expected
as a result of the passage of time or normal
use; or
-
significant changes with an adverse effect
on the entity that have taken place during
the year, or will take place in the near future,
in the technological, market, economic or
legal environment in which the entity
operates or in the market to which an asset
is dedicated; or
-
significant changes with an adverse effect
on the entity during the year, or any are
expected to take place in the near future, in
the extent to which, or manner in which, an
asset is used or is expected to be used.

We also considered whether:
-
there was evidence of obsolescence or
physical damage of assets comprising the
CGUs; and
-
the market capitalisation of the Group was
significantly lower than Eden Innovation’s
net assets at balance date.

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in Eden Innovations Limited’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the consolidated financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the consolidated 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 consolidated 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.

ASX Code: EDE

43

Annual Report 2021

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

Directors’ responsibility for the financial report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability 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 entity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibility 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.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the Group financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

Annual Report 2021

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
