REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES

During the half year ended 30 June 2019 the following activities were undertaken:

The Group unveiled its new Halo communication platform at the world’s largest mobile technology conference and exhibition in February 2019. Halo’s breakthrough technology integrates Elsight’s high bandwidth totally secured data transmission technology while introducing a dramatically reduced form factor, weight, power consumption and heat index. The platform is offered in two main configurations: a highly compact standalone external device, or a lightweight internal board. The Halo 2000/4000 features multiple cellular modules, built in WiFi, and an optional video encoder and an internal battery. Halo is highly adaptable and able to integrate with any platform or device, making it ideal for future-forward OEMs, drones or other application that requires light weight, hi-bandwidth, highly secured and always-on solution.

In March 2019, the Group announced the receipt of repeat orders from key partners Traffilog and Alrena, key to the Company in endorsing satisfaction and demand and important for the Company’s goal of driving strong revenue growth in 2019.

During the half year, the Company focused on the development of its Halo technology towards commercialisation, involving a ramp up in the final testing, logistics, marketing and sales activities during the half year intended to secure and successfully deliver paid proof-of-concept (POC) ahead of aggressive sales starting 4Q 2019.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019

NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY

The interim financial report ( Report ) of Elsight Limited (the Company ) and it’s controlled entities (the Group ) ( Consolidated Entity ) for the half year ended 30 June 2019 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 29 August 2019.

Elsight Limited is a listed public company, trading on the Australia Securities Exchange, limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

The Group’s registered office and principal place of business is Level 7, 330 Collins Street, Melbourne VIC 3000 Australia.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION

a) Statement of compliance

This interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001 .

This interim financial report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the Company as in the full financial report. It is recommended that this interim financial report be read in conjunction with any public announcements made by Elsight Limited up to the date of this report in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.

b) Basis of measurement and reporting conventions including capital reorganisation

This interim financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical cost. The interim financial report is presented in United States dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest dollar unless otherwise stated.

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with the accounting policies adopted in the Company’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 except for the adoption of new and amended accounting standards as set out below.

c) Adoption of new and amended accounting standards

The Group had to change its accounting policies as a result of the adoption of AASB 16 Leases from 1 January 2019. The impact of the adoption of this standard has had a material impact on the amounts presented in the Group’s financial statements as disclosed below.

d) Changes in accounting policies

This note explains the impact of the adoption of AASB 16 Leases on the group’s financial statements and discloses the new accounting policies that have been applied from 1 January 2019.

The Group has applied the Modified Retrospective Approach in its adoption of AASB 16. Comparative information has not been restated as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in the standard. The reclassifications and adjustments arising from the adoption of AASB 16 are recognised in the opening balance sheet at 1 January 2019, with the cumulative effect of initial application recognised as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance at that date.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

d) Changes in accounting policies (continued)

AASB 16 Leases – Impact of Adoption

Lease liabilities

On adoption of AASB 16 the group recognised lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of AASB 117 Leases . These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate as of 1 January 2019. The weighted average lessee’s incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on 1 January 2019 was 3.58%.

Lease liabilities recognised at 1 January 2019 are as follows:

Operating lease commitments disclosed as at 31 December 2018
Less: Discount applied
Operating lease commitments discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the
date of initial application
Add: finance lease liabilities recognised as at 31 December 2018
Less: short-term leases recognised on a straight-line basis as expense
Lease liability recognised as at 1 January 2019

Right of use assets

The associated right of use assets for property and vehicle leases were measured on a retrospective basis as if the new rules had always been applied. There were no other right of use assets and no onerous lease contracts that would have required an adjustment to the right of use assets at the date of initial application.

The recognised right of use assets relate to the following types of assets:

  • Right of use assets – increase by US$318,929; and

  • Lease liabilities – increase by US$324,932.

d) Changes in accounting policies (continued)

Impact on segment disclosures and earnings per share

The adoption of AASB 16 had no impact on the group’s segment disclosures.

There was no impact on earnings per share for the six months to 30 June 2019 as a result of the adoption of AASB 16.

Practical expedients applied

In applying AASB 16 for the first time, the group has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:

  • The use of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases; and

  • The use of hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.

The group has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease, at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date the group relied on its assessment made applying AASB 117 and Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease .

AASB 16 Leases – Accounting Policies Applied from 1 January 2019

The group leases office space and vehicles. Rental contracts are typically made for a fixed period of 3 years, with extension options available on the office lease. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a range of terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants, but leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.

Until the 2018 financial year, leases were classified as either finance or operating leases. Payments made under the group’s operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) were charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

From 1 January 2019, leases are recognised as a right of use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the group. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right of use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of fixed lease payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentive receivable.

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be determined, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with similar terms and conditions.

Right of use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:

  • The amount of the initial measurement of lease liability;

  • Any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received;

  • Any initial direct costs; and

  • Restoration costs.

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value may assets comprise IT-equipment and small items of office furniture.

e) Critical accounting judgements and estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting judgements and estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. There are no areas involving a high degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements except for the following:

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

e) Critical accounting judgements and estimates (continued)

- Key estimate: Share based payments

The Group initially measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant.

This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them, as well as an assessment of the probability of achieving non-market based vesting conditions.

The probability of achieving non-market based vesting conditions of performance options is assessed at each reporting period.

The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 4.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of Elsight Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Elsight Limited (the Company) 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 half-year then ended, and notes comprising a statement of accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of the Group is not 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 half-year ended on that date; and

(ii) Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Directors’ responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

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

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with the Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and its financial performance for the half-year ended on that date and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of the Group, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

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

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.

Independence

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