Chairman’s Report

EGY has once again ended the financial year in substantial loss which has been covered by its major shareholders and financial backers who continue to support the company. Losses were exacerbated by the operating subsidiary Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Ltd (BWC) expanding its sales and manufacturing operations. In the case of sales this included opening a new sales office and warehouse in Adelaide and also increasing the headcount of the sales force elsewhere. In the case of operations this included increasing the number of factory staff and adding more shifts.

Losses for the first half of the year far outweighed those in the second half which reflects both the better trading conditions experienced since November 2016 and the impact of the above measures which were both taken to mesh with the bringing to market of products developed over the preceding 36 months, the upgrading of production equipment and capacity and the expectation that the market would improve dramatically over the coming 12 months.

It is pleasing to note that as a result of the steps taken sales have improved dramatically with sales for the last 6 months of FY2017 up 39% compared to the same period in the previous financial year. Indeed this growth has continued and the company currently has experienced 60% growth in sales over the last 2 months to 31 August 2017 as compared to the previous period and currently has more orders in hand than at any time in its recent history. Enquiries continue to grow and outstanding bids measure in the many millions. State and Federal Government spending on committed infrastructure projects is proceeding and the pipeline for projects over the coming ten years is exceptional in its breadth. Adding to this positive environment is the growing push by the Federal and State Governments to drive local content for projects in order to spur growth in Australian industry and the positive sentiment generated by the coming $180 billion, ten or more year spend, on defence related projects including manufacture in Australia of submarines, frigates, patrol boats and both light and heavy armoured vehicles.

It is also relevant that the mining industry has picked up from its nadir of recent years and demand from this sector for cables is gathering pace.

The company finds itself well positioned to benefit from the tsunami of road, rail and defence infrastructure that is occurring and will soon engulf the whole of Australia but especially the eastern states. Enquiries and orders for product related to these areas have increased at a rapid rate and the 3 years of effort put into developing hundreds of cables to meet the requirements of each state for these works is beginning to pay dividends. It is important to note that these improvements are only the very first stirrings of the industrial demand that will be required to be filled.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

EGY’s principal activities during the year were:

The manufacture and sale of specialist industrial cables through wholly owned subsidiary Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Limited (BWC):
Driving organic growth and organisational change in BWC;
Seeking other products, businesses and opportunities for the Group.

REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

EGY has reported an increased consolidated loss after tax and minorities for FY2017 of $2,941,203 (FY2016 loss after tax and minorities $2,052,216). Wholly owned subsidiary Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Ltd (BWC) reported a loss after tax of $1,484,904 (FY2016 loss $1,035,248).

BWC reported a loss after tax of $1,205,344 for the Half Year to 31 December 2016 and has had significantly improved trading in the second half of FY2017. BWC revenue for FY2017 was 27% higher than reported for FY2016 and invoiced sales for the second half of the financial year were up month on month by an average 39% improvement over the comparable period last year. New orders for 2HFY2017 were 31% up on the previous period. Margins on purchased product were, however, impacted by currency movements and price increases, although overall margins held firm when compared to FY2016.

Included in FY2017 revenue is a further $1,189,865 R&D Grant (FY2016 R&D Grant revenue $880,480) which partially recovered the continuing significant research and development expenditure undertaken by BWC in new product development, cable projects and testing.

BWC results were also impacted by transitional costs in relation to opening a new branch and strengthening sales support, as well as costs in relation to the updating of factory equipment under the business plan. Margin benefits as a result of commissioning of new equipment are expected to be significantly reflected in FY2018 results.

Energy Technologies Limited – 2017 Annual Report

Directors’ Report (Cont’d)

REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Cont’d)

BWC’s entry into the infrastructure and rail market sectors is beginning to show results and overall trading conditions are expected to continue to improve as major rail, road, and defense projects come on stream. The current order book is strong and the company has many live bids on which it is awaiting the outcome.

As reported in the December 2016 Half Year report, the company continues to be supported by its investors and over the period has raised required funds to support the business. Funds totaling $6,816,000 have been raised through the issue of secured Debenture Notes and the NAB facility previously in place has been retired.

Overall the business is becoming a far more sophisticated and capable manufacturer than it was one or two years ago. New warehouses and sales staff in South Australia and new sales staff appointed in QLD, Victoria and NSW over the past 6 months are providing a strong sales presence. This is expected to continue sales growth as the new BWC products come to market and the company can offer reduced lead times and price competitive cables across a broad spectrum due to its factory equipment upgrade.

The loss position of the company continues to be of great concern but the board and management are convinced that the BWC business plan in place is the correct plan to bring the company to a situation of sustained profitability. In summary, the plan includes an expansion of the product offering, a focus on infrastructure and defense markets and the installation of new more efficient production equipment.

STATE OF AFFAIRS

During FY2017, EGY raised $6,816,000 through the issue of secured Debenture Notes. The Debentures have a maturity date of 31 December 2020 but are redeemable at anytime after 30 June 2017 and are therefore classified as a current liability. However, the Directors’ do not expect the Debenture Notes will be redeemed within the twelve month period following the date of this report.

During the financial year the group repaid $1,970,170 (2016: $80,417) of both long and short term interest bearing debt. This included full repayment of NAB IF Facility.

Subsidiary Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Ltd has raised a further $500,000 under an unsecured Loan Facility during FY2017.

In relation to the Going Concern position of the Group, please refer to the details set out in Note 1(c) to the Financial Statements.

DIVIDENDS

No dividends were paid or recommended by the parent company EGY this financial year.

NON-AUDIT SERVICES

During the year Nexia Sydney Pty Ltd, an associate of the Company’s auditor performed certain other services in addition to their statutory duties.

The board has considered the non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor’s associate firm and in accordance with written advice provided by resolution of the audit committee, is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services during the year by the auditor’s associate firm is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

The reasons for this are that all non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the audit committee to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and the non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards.

Details of the amounts paid to the auditor and their associates for audit and non-audit services provided during the year are set out in note 6 to the financial statements. In addition, amounts paid to other auditors for other statutory audit services have been disclosed in that note.

EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO REPORTING DATE

There has not arisen since the end of the financial period any other matter of circumstance which, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, significantly affects the operation of the Company, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Company in subsequent financial years.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS

Refer Subsequent Events note above.

Future Developments and Risks

Opportunities

In line with the Business Plan the company has in FY2017 invested significant funds in updating and improving the equipment at it’s factory in Brookvale, in particular with the installation of a new large buncher and ancillary equipment, as well as a large extruder line. Further equipment is identified and under order FY2018, in particular a planetary winder. This equipment will significantly increase the capacity of the factory, improve efficiency and lead to improved margins on products made. The new equipment will also allow manufacture of a much larger range of cable and larger sizes of cable, reducing exposure to price variations from suppliers and foreign exchange risk.

The company is also establishing its own NATA approved laboratory so that it can bring products to market more quickly. This is in line with the objective of the company to push for increased testing of Low Voltage cable and a tougher regulatory framework for enforcement of the standards on low voltage cable product.

As stated previously, the company has invested significant time and funds into developing a range of specialist cables for infrastructure and defence related projects, to expand its range of products to supply to market areas where it was deemed there would be significant growth. The decision was made to focus initially on rail and especially rail signalling cables and build from there with cables for road signalling, tunnelling, rolling stock and then defence related cables for submarines, patrol boats and Frigates/Destroyers. Cables for rolling stock, tunnelling and defence related projects, low smoke zero halogen 125 degree cables for tunnels and fire rated cables are now tested and approved or in the final stages of approval.

Typically to conceive a new product, undertake market research , make samples, confirm pricing and cost competitiveness, refine the product, undertake in house testing, submit for independent type testing and then receive approval takes between twelve to eighteen months. Subsequent to that a marketing programme is undertaken to launch the product and achieve sales, requiring a further minimum six months.

The opportunity for the company lies in the fact that it has multiple products, all Australian made and coming on stream to meet growth in infrastructure and defence spending at a time when markets are becoming increasingly protective.

Risks

The company needs to continue upgrading its manufacturing facilities to enable it to meet expected capacity requirements and produce locally an expanded range and size of cables. Failure to do so will substantially limit growth and will not allow anticipated margin improvement. The company will require further significant new equipment purchases and to fully reach a capacity level to efficiently meet expected demand will need to consider acquiring increased factory land and buildings.

A rise in the AUD against the USD will impact negatively on the competitiveness of the business. At AUD/USD 0.80 the business may be less competitive with imports of like quality. A fall from this level is favourable to the business whilst a rise is unfavourable.

The company is a small player in a market where there are a number of very large competitors. The company is very aware that to compete it must maintain a point of difference. To this end it must continue with a very active research and development agenda, developing new cables and continuously upgrading existing cables. It must also continue to develop its manufacturing processes and adopt a continuous upgrade program. It must also continue to excel in the level of service that it provides. Any failure in any of these areas will bring significant risk to the business.

The company continues to report a loss and has not been profitable for an extended period. This weakness has been supported financially by significant capital raising, which has been successfully undertaken over the past three years and continued in FY2017 with the issue of Debenture Notes. The company used part of these funds to repay bank facility debt during the period and is currently without bank support. The company must deliver to maintain the support of its financiers and in this respect It must deliver on the small objectives as well as the larger objective of returning to profitability. Thus it must continue to deliver on bringing new products to market, on increasing productivity to maintain support on its road to building a robust sustainable business. Failure to meet accepted milestones on this path will pose a risk to continued financial support.

The company has based its business plan on the belief that both Federal and State governments will proceed with planned infrastructure and defence spending. Now significant projects are proceeding. Any cancellation of these plans or continued delay will impact negatively on the opportunities that lie ahead for the company.

The company has developed products some of which still require final testing and approval. Any failure to pass testing in a timely manner or not obtain approval will impact negatively on the company’s performance.

Remuneration Report (audited)

The Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the directors, the managing director and the executive team. Remuneration levels are set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced Directors and senior executives. The Remuneration Committee obtains independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages, given trends in comparative companies both locally and internationally. The Remuneration Committee also assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emolument of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team. Such officers are given the opportunity to receive their base emolument in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefits such as motor vehicles. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the company.

Executive remuneration packages include a mix of fixed remuneration and performance based remuneration.

Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration consists of base remuneration as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds. Remuneration levels are reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee through a process that considers individual, segment and overall performance of the consolidated and operating entity. A senior executive’s remuneration is also reviewed on promotion.

Performance – linked Remuneration

The Remuneration Committee links the nature and amount of directors’ and executives’ emoluments to the company’s financial and operational performance. All senior executives have the opportunity to qualify for participation in the Employee Bonus Plan, which currently provides incentives where specified criteria are met including criteria relating to profitability.

Performance linked remuneration includes both short term and long term incentives and is designed to reward executive directors and senior executives for meeting or exceeding financial and personal objectives. The short term incentive is an at-risk bonus provided in the form of cash, and is based on the relevant operating subsidiaries’ results and on achieving a preset target. The long term incentive is provided as ordinary shares of Energy Technologies Limited or options over ordinary shares of Energy Technologies Limited under the rules of the Energy Technologies Limited Share Option Plan.

The remuneration structures result in and take into account:

The overall level of remuneration for each director and executive
The executive’s ability to control performance
The amount of incentives within each executive’s remuneration.

Short term incentive

Each year the remuneration committee sets the key performance indicators, which generally include measures relating to the operating group, the relevant segment and the individual, and are based on financial, customer and strategy measures. The measures directly align the reward to the key performance indicators and the operating group performance. The financial performance objectives are operating group turnover and EBIT to working capital ratio analyses compared to budgeted amounts on a regional and consolidated basis. The non-financial objectives vary with position and responsibility and include measures such as achieving strategic outcomes, safety and business development.

The remuneration committee approves the cash incentive to be paid to the individuals.

Long term incentive

Options are available to be issued under the Energy Technologies Limited Share Option Plan (made in accordance with thresholds set in plans approved by shareholders at the 2014 AGM), and it provides for directors, executives and employees to receive options in total limited to 15% of the issued ordinary capital and exercisable strictly under the terms of the Plan.

Energy Technologies Limited – 2017 Annual Report

==> picture [46 x 20] intentionally omitted <==

Remuneration Report (audited)

The Board considers that the above remuneration structure is adequate given the major restructuring of the operations required under the Business Plan, and secondly, the performance linked element appears to be appropriate because the executives strive to achieve a level of performance which qualifies them for bonuses.

The remuneration for all non-executive directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 2007 AGM, is not to exceed $500,000 per annum. Director’s base fees are presently up to $20,000. Directors receive additional cash benefit of $2,500 for participation and attendance at each board approved committee, up to a maximum $5,000.

The Company’s corporate governance practices are discussed below. The Company and the Board of Directors are committed to achieving and demonstrating the highest standards of corporate governance and aim to comply with the Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council.

The Board of Directors guides and monitors the business and affairs of Energy Technologies Limited and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) on behalf of the shareholders, by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable. The Board is responsible for the overall corporate governance of the Group. To assist the Board in discharging its responsibilities the Board has adopted principles of corporate governance that are considered appropriate for the present size of the Group. Where it is not appropriate, cost effective or practical to comply fully with the Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations, this fact has been disclosed together with reasons for the departure.

Consistent with the ASX recommendations, the Company’s corporate governance practices are regularly reviewed. The information in this statement is current as at 31 August 2017.

Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight

1.1: Board and Management Responsibilities

The Board is responsible for, and has the authority to determine, all matters relating to the running of the Company including the policies, operational practices, management and objectives of the Company. In carrying out its responsibilities, the Board undertakes to serve the interest of shareholders diligently and fairly. It is the role of management to manage the Company in accordance with the directives of the Board.

Accordingly certain functions and roles are reserved to the Board, and certain others are delegated to the senior executives of the Group.

The responsibilities of the Board include:

formulating the vision and strategic direction and monitoring performance objectives of the Group
overseeing and fostering an appropriate culture for the Group that is aligned to its values

Corporate Governance Statement (Cont’d)

The Board has delegated responsibility for operation and day to day administration of the company to the Managing Director, the Chief Financial Officer and executive management.

The Managing Director is responsible for the achievement of the Company’s goals, in accordance with the strategies and policies approved by the Board and with support from executive management. The specific duties of the Managing Director include:

assisting the Board to develop the Company’s Business Plan and goals
responsibility for the achievement of these goals
development in conjunction with senior management of short, medium and long term strategies to enable the Company to achieve its objectives
preparation and update of business plans and relevant reports with senior management and implementation of those plans
assessment of business opportunities including acquisitions
proposing and controlling with Board approval items of material capital expenditure
maintaining positive relationships with Board members, shareholders, trading partners and the investment community, including accepting the role of key spokesperson
recommending and seeking appropriate approval for delegations of authority, key performance incentives and organizational changes, including key staff appointments, in conjunction with established board committees
ensuring legal and regulatory compliance, in conjunction with senior management
overall control of the staff appraisal process

1.2 and 1.3: Appointment of Directors

The experience, qualification and background of each Director is thoroughly assessed before appointment. This information is provided to shareholders through announcement to the market.

Information on each Director’s background and qualification can be found on pages 5 and 6 of the Annual Report.

The Company issues written notice of appointment for new Directors or senior executives setting out the terms and conditions relevant to that appointment and the expectations of the role of the director. The Company also provides an induction process which provides key information on the nature of the business and its operations.

1.4: Company Secretary

The company secretary is accountable directly to the board, through the chair, on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the board. On day to day matters the Company Secretary reports to the Managing Director. The responsibilities of the Company Secretary include:

Corporate Governance Statement (Cont’d)

1.5: Diversity

The Company has adopted policies in relation to employment and recruitment which require the introduction of new staff and management of the Group’s employees on a non-discriminatory basis. Hiring policies are backed by policies in relation to Sexual Harassment and Grievance and Dispute Handling.

The Group is quite small. Some new employees have been employed by BWC since its purchase, but only very few. The small scale of the company’s hiring means that it is difficult to target new employees on a gender basis.

The Company’s policies are intended to ensure that equal opportunity is given to all potential employees, and that increasing gender diversity at all levels will not be discouraged. The Board will keep the gender composition of its workforce under review.

Seventeen per cent (17%) of all the Group’s employees are women. There is currently one female on the Board as Alternate Director to Yulin Hu.

1.6 and 1.7: Board and Management Reviews

The Board undertakes a review of the Managing Director and of senior executive performance at least annually, together with the Remuneration Committee, including setting targets. The performance evaluation is carried out in accordance with the policy and procedure set out in the Company’s Corporate Governance documents, which are available on the Company’s website.

Principle 2: Structure the board to add value

The composition of the Board is structured to efficiently discharge its responsibilities and duties.

2.1 : Nomination Committee

The names and qualifications of those appointed to the nomination committee for the year ended 30 June 2017 and their attendance at meetings of the committee are included in the directors’ report. This committee is involved in the overseeing of the appointment and induction process for new directors, committee members and senior management.

The Nomination Committee is not chaired by an independent director and the Committee is not made up of a majority of independent directors. The Company is not of sufficient size to achieve this and due to the small number of directors and senior executives and the status of director’s independence it is not currently possible to achieve a majority of independent members.

For Directors retiring by rotation, the Board assesses that director before recommending re-election.

2.2 : Board skills matrix

The Board of Directors is comprised of a Managing Director and Chairman, together with four non-executive Directors and an Alternate Director. The Board considers that a diversity of skills, knowledge, experience, backgrounds and gender is required to effectively govern the business. The current Board profile addresses this with the following experience, skills and qualifications represented on the Board:

international business and senior executive experience, including owning and managing businesses in the energy sector and other;
experience on listed and unlisted company and association boards as executive and non-executives and committee members;
understanding the sectors in which the Company operates in including the energy sector, resources industry, infrastructure, construction;
relevant operational experience in strategic planning, executive management; mergers and acquisitions, risk management, financial markets, contract negotiation and people management;
financial and corporate governance acumen with finance sector and audit committee roles experience;
an understanding of the health and safety challenges of the business.

Corporate Governance Statement (Cont’d)

2.3, 2.4, 2.5 : Board Composition, Independence of Directors and Chairman

The composition of the Board is determined in compliance with the Company’s constitution. The names of the directors of the company in office at the date of this report, their term of office and their skills, experience and relevant expertise are detailed in the directors’ report. The position and term in office of each Director at the date of this report is as follows:

Name of Director	Position	Term in Office	Term in Office
		Years	Months
Alfred J. Chown	Chairman/Managing Director	20	2
Gary A. Ferguson	Non-executive	4	11
Philip W. Dulhunty	Non-executive	2	9
Yulin Hu	Non-executive	1	9
Meiping Hu	Alternate to Yulin Hu	1	9
Matthew Driscoll	Non-executive	-	6

The Company does not have a majority of independent directors on the board.

The non-executive Directors are materially independent in complying as a director who is not a member of management and who:

has not within the last three years been employed in an executive capacity by the company or another group member, or been a director after ceasing to hold any such employment
within the last three years has not been a principal or employee of a material professional advisor or a material consultant to the company or another group member
is not a material supplier or customer of the company or another group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated with a material supplier or customer
has no material contractual relationship with the company or another group member other than as a director of the company
is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the director’s ability to act in the best interests of the company

However with the exception of newly appointed Director Matthew Driscoll all non-executive Directors currently hold directly and indirectly substantial shareholdings in the Company.

Under the Company’s plan to appoint further non-executive independent Directors when value is added to the Board, Mr Matthew Driscoll was appointed on 20 December 2016. However Directors have continued to work as an effective team, with close liaison to act in the best interests of the Company and security holders. It is not considered that the materiality of Director’s shareholding will interfere with the Director’s capacity to bring independent judgement to bear on issues before the Board and impair the ability to continue to act in the best interests of the entity and its security holders generally.

During the 2013 financial year, Mr Alfred J. Chown was appointed as the Managing Director of the Company. After the resignation of former Board members, Mr Chown also adopted the position of Chairman of the Board. The company accepts that, as a principle, these roles should be separate. At present, however, there are factors which have made it desirable that they be exercised by the same person for the time being.

The Company and its subsidiary Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Ltd (BWC) continued to encounter difficult trading conditions during the year. The Managing Director continues to devote a great deal of time and energy to the operations of BWC, and its internal processes. The Managing Director and the other directors have been in frequent and informal contact during the year, in addition to the formal Board meetings. The strategy of the company, and the execution of the strategy, has been under frequent review, and the results under close scrutiny.

Directors have worked as an effective team, with close liaison. In the circumstances, directors have not felt it necessary to address the appointment of a new Chairman.

Corporate Governance Statement (Cont’d)

2.6 : Professional Development

Each Director has the right of access to all relevant Company information and to the Company’s executives. The Directors also have access to external resources as required to fully discharge their obligations as Directors of the Company. The use of this resource is coordinated through the Chairman of the Board.

The Company has processes in place to review the performance of the Board and its committees and individual Directors. Each year the Board of Directors gives consideration to corporate governance matters, including the relevance of existing committees and to reviewing its own and individual Directors’ performance. The Chairman is responsible for monitoring the contribution of individual Directors and consulting with them in any areas of improvement.

Principle 3: Promote ethical and responsible decision making

3.1 : Code of Conduct

The Board acknowledges the need for continued maintenance of the highest standards of Corporate Governance Practices and ethical conduct by all Directors and employees of the Group.

The Company has developed a Code of Conduct, an Employee Handbook and a comprehensive suite of policies which have been approved by the Board and apply to all employees, officers and Directors. This set of policies is regularly reviewed and may be amended as necessary to ensure it continues to reflect the best practices necessary to take into account legal obligations, maintain the Company’s integrity and comply with the reasonable expectations of the Company’s shareholders. The Code of Conduct is disclosed in the Company’s Corporate Governance documents.

Trading Policy

Trading in Company securities is regulated by the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules. The Company’s policy regarding directors and employees trading in its securities is set by the Board, and is disclosed in the Company’s Corporate Governance documents. The policy restricts directors and employees from acting on material information until it has been released to the market and adequate time has been given for this to be reflected in the security’s price.

Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in financial reporting

The following structure is set up to independently verify and safeguard the integrity of financial reporting.

4.1 : Audit Committee

The Board has established an audit committee. The names and qualifications of those appointed to the audit committee for the year ended 30 June 2017 and their attendance at meetings of the committee are included in the directors’ report. The audit committee does not consist of a majority of independent directors, refer 2.3 Board Composition. Following the appointment of independent non-executive Director Matthew Driscoll the audit committee is constituted with three members. Mr Driscoll has been appointed as Chairman of the audit committee. The Board of the company now has six members including Alternate Director, however following the appointment of Mr Driscoll and the skills matrix, the Board has decided to retain the expanded structure at this time. The Board has decided not to appoint Alfred J. Chown, the Managing Director, to the audit committee. The Chief Financial Officer is invited to audit committee meetings at the discretion of the committee. The external auditor meets with members of the committee at least twice during the year.

The charter of the audit committee is disclosed in the Company’s Corporate Governance documents.

The responsibilities of the audit committee include:

Assessing whether non-audit services provided by the external auditor are consistent with maintaining the external auditor’s independence. Each reporting period the external auditor provides an independence declaration in relation to the audit or review.
Providing advice to the Board in respect of whether the provision of the non-audit services by the external auditor is compatible with the general standard of independence of auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001.

Corporate Governance Statement (Cont’d)

4.1 : Audit Committee (Cont’d)

The Company does not have an internal audit function due to the size and lack of complexity of the Company. The Company’s Board and Management oversee the key areas of the business including the risk management and internal control processes of the Company and evaluate and look for opportunities to continually improve the effectiveness of these processes.

4.2 : Financial Reporting

To assist the Board in approving the Company’s financial statements, the Managing Director and the Chief Financial Officer are required to present a declaration with regard to the integrity of the financial statements to confirm to the Board that the Company’s financial statements present a true and fair view in all material respects of the Company’s financial condition and that operational results are in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the Corporations Act.

4.3 : External Auditors

The Board of Directors ensures that the Company’s external auditor attends all Annual General Meetings and be available to answer shareholders’ questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the auditor’s report.

Principle 5: Make timely and balanced disclosure and respect the rights of shareholders

Disclosure

The Company has a Continuous Disclosure policy to ensure compliance with ASX Listing Rules and Corporations Act obligations to keep the market fully informed of any information which may have material effect on the price or value of its securities. The policy is disclosed in the Company’s Corporate Governance documents. All ASX announcements are linked to the Company’s website as soon as possible after confirmation from ASX, including financial statements.

The Company Secretary in consultation with the CEO and Directors is responsible for communications with the ASX. He is also responsible for ensuring compliance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the ASX Listing Rules, and overseeing and coordinating information disclosure to the ASX, analysts, brokers, shareholders, the media and the general public.

Principle 6: Respect the rights of shareholders

6.1 Information on website

The Company takes advantage of electronic communication for investor relations. The Company’s, and subsidiary Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Ltd, website contains extensive information about the Board and management globally. It includes relevant press releases and media announcements in relation to the Company’s operations, relevant announcements made to the market via the ASX, Company presentations and copies of financial statements. The Company has recently upgraded its website and further development to ensure continuous and full disclosure is currently under way.

The Company provides shareholders with copies of all announcements made to the ASX by mail on request. Copies are also available in its web site or the ASX web site, ensuring that all shareholders are kept informed about the Company. Shareholders also have the option of receiving a hard copy of the Annual Report each year.

6.2 and 6.3 Investor relations and participation at meetings

The Board encourages full participation of attending shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to maintain a high level of accountability and allow shareholders to identify the Company’s strategies and goals. The Company completes the Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Notes so that they provide clearly and concisely all of the information relevant to shareholders to enable them to make decisions on matters to be voted on at the meeting. The General Meetings are viewed as a tool to communicate with shareholders and the Company encourages and allows time for participation in the meetings.

Corporate Governance Statement (Cont’d)

Principle 7: Recognise and manage risk

7.1 : Risk Committee

The Group takes a proactive approach to risk management. The Board is responsible for ensuring that risks, and also opportunities, are identified on a timely basis and that the Group's objectives and activities are aligned with the risks and opportunities identified by the Board.

The Group believes that it is crucial for all Board members to be a part of this process, and as such the Board has not established a separate risk management committee. Instead sub-committees are convened as appropriate in response to particular issues and risks identified by the Board as a whole, and the sub-committee further examines the issue and reports back to the board.

7.2 : Risk Review

The Board identifies potential areas of business risk arising from changes in the financial and economic circumstances of its operating environment. It regularly assesses the Company performance in light of risks identified.

The Board has a number of mechanisms in place to ensure that management's objectives and activities are aligned with the risks identified by the Board. These include the following:

Board approval of a strategic business plan, which encompasses the entity's vision, mission and strategy statements, designed to meet stakeholder’s needs and manage business risk.
Implementation of Board-approved operating plans and budgets and board monitoring of progress against these budgets, including the establishment and monitoring of key performance indicators (KPI's) of both a financial and non-financial nature.
The establishment of committees to report on specific business risks, including for example, such matters as occupational health and safety.
Regular management meetings involving executive directors, specified executives, and staff during which reports are given on production, sales, financial, compliance and strategic issues and decisions taken on operating matters, or referred to the Board.
Regular reports and cash forecasts from the CFO which assist in discharging the Board's responsibility to manage the Group's financial risks. The Board is advised on such matters as the Group's liquidity, available credit and currency exposures and monitors actions to ensure they are in line with Company policy.
The Board holds ongoing discussion of issues raised in the shareholder open days, in addition to the AGM, as well as other shareholder communications, to ensure that the Board is cognizant of the diverse needs of various stakeholders and assist in identifying the risks the business may face if those needs are not met, as well as specifically review and update the corporate strategy as necessary.

7.3 : Internal Audit

The Board does not employ an internal auditor, although as part of the Company’s strategy to implement an integrated framework of control, the Board requests the external auditors review internal control procedures. Recommendations once presented are considered by the Board.

7.4 : Sustainability Risks

The Board regularly assesses risks associated with economic, global, environmental and social sustainability risks.

Corporate Governance Statement (Cont’d)

Principle 8: Remunerate fairly and responsibly

8.1 : Remuneration Committee

The Board has established a remuneration committee. The remuneration committee reviews and makes recommendations to the Board on remuneration packages and policies applicable to the Managing Director, senior executives and staff and directors themselves. It is also responsible for share option schemes, incentive performance packages, and compliance with superannuation requirements, termination entitlements, fringe benefits policies and professional indemnity and liability insurance policies as applicable.

The names of the members of the remuneration committee and their attendance at meetings of the committee are detailed in the directors’ report. The remuneration committee in place for the year ended 30 June 2017 consists of three directors but did not have majority of independent directors. The Chief Financial Officer is invited to remuneration committee meetings, as required, to discuss senior executives and staff performance and remuneration packages.

The charter in relation to the remuneration committee is disclosed in the Company’s Corporate Governance documents.

There are no schemes for retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation for non-executive directors.

8.2 : Executive and Directors Remuneration Policies

Remuneration levels are set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced directors, senior executives and staff to run the consolidated entity. The board considers that the remuneration structure will be able to attract and retain the best executives with the necessary incentives to work to grow long-term shareholder value.

The remuneration committee obtains independent advice as necessary on the appropriateness of remuneration packages, given trends in comparative companies both locally and internationally. Remuneration includes a mix of fixed remuneration and performance-based remuneration. All senior executives receive a base salary, superannuation, fringe benefits and performance incentives. The remuneration committee reviews executive packages annually by reference to company performance, executive performance, comparative industry information and relevant independent advice. The performance of executives is measured against criteria agreed which is based on the forecast growth of the Company’s turnover and profits and shareholders’ value.

The Company’s non-executive directors are paid directors’ fees for their normal performance of duties as a director. Where there is a significant and sustained requirement for work by a director in excess of that considered normal for the Company, the Company will pay a one-off bonus in respect of that work.

The amount of remuneration for all directors and the highest paid executives, including all monetary and non-monetary components, are detailed in the Directors’ Report.

8.3 : Equity based Remuneration Scheme

A revised Directors Equity Plan was established in 2014 and approved by shareholders at the 2014 Annual General Meeting.

Executives and employees are also entitled to participate in the EGY Share Option Plan also approved by shareholders at the 2014 Annual General Meeting.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the year ended 30 June 2017

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Preparation

The financial statements are a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars unless otherwise stated.

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 29 September 2017 by the directors of Energy Technologies Limited.

Energy Technologies Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

(b) Statement of compliance

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise.

Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected noncurrent assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

(c) Going Concern

The consolidated entity incurred a loss after tax and non-controlling interest of $2,941,203 (2016: 2,052,216) and incurred negative cash flows from operations of $3,251,666 (2016: $1,443,349) for the year ended 30 June 2017. At balance date, including Debenture Notes totalling $6,816,000, current liabilities exceeded current assets by $4,361,986. The Debentures have a maturity date of 31 December 2020 and Directors’ do not expect the Debenture Notes will be redeemed within the twelve month period following the date of this report.

These matters give rise to a significant material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt upon the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ongoing operation of the consolidated entity is dependent upon it:

(a) achieving cash flow positive trading operations from its existing business; and

(b) continued financial support from its current financiers;

During FY2017 the Company has entered into a financing arrangement by means of a Secured Debenture Note Facility to replace the previous bank facility and to provide additional working capital. As noted above, an amount of $6,816,000 has been drawn under this facility at balance date and to the date of this report.

Management have prepared a cash flow projection for the period to 30 September 2018 that supports the ability of the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern. The FY2018 budget on which the cash flow projection is based forecasts a 38% increase in sales revenues for the FY2018 from the FY2017 actual year, including a new branch operation and identified infrastructure and rail projects. The cash flow projection also assumes the secured debenture facility remains in place.

In the event that the consolidated entity is unable to achieve the matters detailed above, it may not be able to continue as a going concern and therefore the consolidated entity may not be able to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the ordinary course of operations and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.

No adjustments have been made to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset values and the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the consolidated entity and company not continue as going concerns.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2017

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(d) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Energy Technologies Limited (EGY) at the end of the reporting period. The parent controls an entity when it 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 over the entity.

Where controlled entities have entered or left the Group during the year, the financial performance of those entities is included only for the period of the year that they were controlled. A list of controlled entities is included in Note 13 to the financial statements.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intragroup balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group have been eliminated in full on consolidation.

Non-controlling interests, being the equity in the subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are reported separately within the equity section of the consolidated statement of financial position and statements showing profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The non-controlling interests in the net assets comprise their interests at the date of the original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date.

Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions (ie. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners).

(e) Business Combinations

Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is attained, whereby the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions).

Where measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is remeasured in each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in the profit or loss, unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations are expensed.

The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. A gain from a bargain purchase is accounted for in the income statement at the acquisition date.

(f) Foreign currencies

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 (A$), which is the parent entity’s functional currency.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are retranslated at the year-end exchange rate. Nonmonetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate as at the date when fair value was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit or loss, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in profit or loss.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)

(f) Foreign currencies (Cont’d)

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

(i) Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period;
(ii) Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and
(iii) Retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

The functional currencies of the overseas subsidiaries are:

D Power International Limited – Hong Kong Dollars

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with functional currencies other than Australian dollars are recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. The cumulative amount of these differences is reclassified into profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed of.

(g) Property, plant and equipment

Each class of Plant and equipment is stated at cost or fair value as indicated, less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value.

Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of plant and equipment are credited to a revaluation surplus in equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are recognised against revaluation surplus directly in equity; all other decreases are recognised in profit or loss.

Any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset.

Depreciation is calculated on both a straight-line and diminishing value basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:

Buildings & Leasehold Improvements 10% to 25% Plant and equipment 5% to 25% Leased plant & Equipment 10% to 25%

Impairment

The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the greater 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.

Impairment losses are recognised in the revaluation surplus or in the income statement, as set out above.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)

(h) Intangibles

Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are capitalised at cost as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, the cost model is applied to the class of intangible assets.

The useful lives of Patents, Computer Software and Licenses are assessed and amortised over their useful lives and amortisation charged is taken to the income statement. Patents and licenses are amortised over 10 years and Computer Software over 4 years.

Intangible assets, excluding development costs, created within the business are not capitalised and expenditure is charged against profits in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.

Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists, and in the case of indefinite life intangibles, at each reporting date, either individually or at the cash generating unit level. Useful lives are also examined on an annual basis and adjustments, where applicable, are made on a prospective basis.

Research and development costs

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense when incurred.

Expenditure on development activities is capitalised only when it is probable that future benefits will exceed deferred costs and these benefits can be reliably measured. Capitalised development expenditure is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using a straight-line method to allocate the costs over an estimated useful life of 20 years during which the related benefits are expected to be realised.

Development expenditure is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Capitalised development expenditure is measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

(i) Investments

All investments are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given and including acquisition charges associated with the investment.

Financial assets are classified at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ when they are held for trading for the purpose of short term profit taking. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition, over the period to maturity.

For investments carried at amortised cost, gains and losses are recognised in income when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

For investments where there is no quoted market price, fair value is determined by reference to the current market value of another instrument which is substantially the same or is calculated based on the expected cash flows of the underlying net asset base of the investment.

(j) Inventories

Manufacturing

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition is accounted for as follows:

Raw materials — valued on a rolling average cost;
Finished goods and work-in-progress — cost of raw materials and standard cost of labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on estimated machine man minute.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)

(k) Impairment of assets

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pretax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

(l) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts.

A provision for doubtful debts will be made against specific trade receivables where collection of the debt, either in full or in part, remains uncertain. Bad debts are written off when identified.

(m) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash on hand and in banks and short-term deposits are stated at nominal value.

For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash includes cash on hand, in banks and money market investments readily convertible to cash within 2 working days.

(n) Investments in Associates

Associates are companies in which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entity, but is not control or joint control of those policies. Investments in associates are accounted for in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting, whereby the investment is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate company. The interest in an associate is the carrying amount of the investment together with any long term interests that in substance form part of the investors’ net investment in the associate. In addition, the Group’s share of the profit or loss of the associated company is included in the Group’s profit or loss.

Profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate.

When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses until it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. When the associate subsequently makes profits, the Group will resume recognising its share of those profits once its share of the profits equals the share of the losses not recognised.

Details of the Group’s investment in associates are provided in Note 14.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)

(o) Financial Instruments

(i) Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (ie trade date accounting is adopted).

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified "at fair value through profit or loss'', in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement

Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest method, or cost.

Non-derivative financial liabilities other than financial guarantees are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial liability is derecognised.

Forward exchange contracts (derivatives) are measured subsequently at Fair Value through profit and loss.

(p) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred.

(q) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying consolidated benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

(r) Leases

Finance leases, which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments.

Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income.

Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term.

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)

(s) Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Sale of goods

Revenue is 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 are considered passed to the buyer at the time of delivery of the goods to the customer.

Rendering of services

Revenue is recognised only when services are completed.

Interest

Revenue is recognised as the interest accrues (using the effective interest method, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument) to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

Dividends

Revenue is recognised when the shareholders' right to receive the payment is established.

(t) Income tax

The income tax expense for the year comprises current income tax expense/(income) and deferred tax expense/(income). Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, except for deferred tax liability on revaluation of plant and equipment not recognised due to the existence of unrecognised tax losses available for offset.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

(u) Other taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:

where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.

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

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

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)

(v) Contributed equity

Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company.

Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.

(w) 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.

Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.

(x) Payables

Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at amortised cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the consolidated entity.

(y) Fair Value

The Group subsequently measures some of its assets at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset in an orderly (ie unforced) transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing market participants at the measurement date.

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to determine fair value. Adjustments to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific asset. The fair values of assets that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data.

To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset (ie the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset) or, in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (ie the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the asset after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs). For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s ability to use the asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

(z) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements 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

i) Impairment

The company assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events specific to the company that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions.

ii) Estimation of useful lives of assets

The estimation of the useful lives of assets has been based on historical experience as well as manufacturer’s warranties (for plant and equipment), lease terms (for leased equipment), long term sales projections and customer requirements (for intangible assets) and turnover policies (for motor vehicles). In addition, the condition of the assets is assessed at least once per year and considered against the remaining useful life. Adjustments to useful lives are made when considered necessary.

iii) Revaluation of plant and equipment – refer to Note 15.

Key Judgements

i) Going Concern: Refer to details in Note 1(c)
ii) Recovery of deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences as management considers that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits over the next two years together with future tax planning strategies.

(aa) Government Grants

Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all grant conditions will be met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income immediately.

(bb) New and Revised Accounting Standards

Refer to Note 33.

(a) During the period investors in Dulhunty Poles Pty Limited (DPPL) converted their convertible notes in that company to shares. Consequently, the Group’s ownership interest in DPPL reduced to 8%. The Group no longer considers that it has significant influence over DPPL and has discontinued classification of this ownership interest as an investment in an associate and accordingly has also discontinued equity accounting for that investment. As the investment has been fully impaired there is no impact in the financial report of the change in classification of the investment in DPPL. Refer also Note 12.

Revaluation of Plant and Equipment to Fair Value

In accordance with the measurement choice available under AASB 116 Property, Plant & Equipment and in order to reflect fair value, subsidiary Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Ltd (BWC) has obtained an independent valuation of existing plant and equipment as at 30 June 2014. The valuation report was completed under the following bases of value:

Fair Market Value in Continued Use (FMVICU)

Reinstatement with New Value (RIV)

The fair value of BWC Plant and Equipment and Leasehold Improvements under FMVICU was $1,975,750 at 30 June 2014. The Board adopted this value, which resulted in an increase in net plant and equipment value of $931,109 in BWC at 30 June 2014. The revaluation amount was recognised in the Asset Revaluation Reserve. A deferred tax liability of $165,978 at 30 June 2017 (2016: $206,838) in respect of the revaluation, has been set off against tax losses available to offset any liability arising upon a disposal of plant and equipment. Refer Note 20(d). EGY has no plans to dispose of its plant and equipment.

RIV value was reported as $7,520,750.

The Group initially recognises and measures its Plant and Equipment and Leasehold Improvements at cost. The Group subsequently measures some classes of its plant and equipment and its leasehold improvements at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment. Refer Notes 1(g) and 1(y).

Fair Value Measurement

AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair value measurements into one of three possible levels based on the lowest level that an input that is significant to the measurement can be categorised into, as follows:

Level 1: Measurements based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the entity can access at the measurement date.
Level 2: Measurements based on inputs other than the quoted prices included in Level 1, but that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Measurements based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the year ended 30 June 2017

Note 15 Property, Plant and Equipment (Cont’d)

EGY’s management considers that the inputs used for the fair value measurement are Level 2 and Level 3 inputs.

Valuation techniques

AASB 13 requires the valuation technique used to be consistent with one of the following valuation approaches:

Market approach: techniques that use prices and other information generated by market transactions for identical of similar assets.
Income approach: techniques that convert future cash flows or income and expenses into a single discounted present value.
Cost approach: techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset at its current service capacity.

EGY commissioned an external independent valuer to conduct a valuation of its unencumbered plant and equipment and leasehold improvements at 30 June 2014 using a market approach technique. The technique predominantly used recent observable market data for similar new equipment in Australia, adjusted for loss in value caused by physical deterioration, functional obsolescence and economic obsolescence. EGY’s management considers that the market approach is the appropriate valuation technique in relation to its plant and equipment and leasehold improvements.

Inputs used in the market approach technique to measure Level 2 fair values were:

current replacement cost of the property being appraised less the loss in value caused by physical deterioration, functional obsolescence and economic obsolescence;
historical cost and relevant market data and industry expertise; and
sales comparison for assets where available.

The assessments of the physical condition, functional obsolescence and economic obsolescence are considered Level 3 inputs.

EGY management has determined that the fair value of the plant and equipment as at 30 June 2017 does not differ materially from its carrying value.

Recurring fair value measurements:

Recurring fair value measurements:
Plant and equipment Leasehold improvements Total non-financial assets recognised at fair value	Level 2 Level 2 2017 2016 $ $ 2,998,395 2,026,895 19,460 22,240
	3,017,855 2,049,135

The highest and best use of the assets is the fair market value in continued use, using the market approach technique.

Intangible assets have finite useful lives. The current amortisation charges in respect of intangible assets

are included under depreciation and amortisation expense.

The recoverable amount of intangible development assets have been assessed using a discounted cash flow methodology forecasting five years of pre-tax cash flows.

The following describes each key assumption on which management has based its value in use calculations:

(a) Five year pre-tax cash flow projections, based upon management approved budgets and growth rates covering a one year period, with the subsequent periods based upon management expectations of growth excluding the impact of possible future acquisitions, business improvement capital expenditure and restructuring.
(b) The discount factor used was 24.63% in 2017 (2016: 21.03%).
(c) The Directors have concluded that the recoverable amount of the intangible development assets and other intangibles exceed their carrying value.

Note 19 Financial Liabilities (Cont’d)

(a) The group raised $6,816,000 in FY 2017 of interest bearing debt through the issue of secured Debenture Notes. These notes have a maturity date of 31 December 2020 and a redemption date of 1 July 2017. The Directors do not expect the Debenture Notes will be redeemed within the twelve month period following balance date. The notes are interest bearing and interest is calculated on the face value of each note at a rate of 12% paid monthly in arrears. Interest accrued on the debentures and convertible notes (refer Note (c) below) as at 30 June 2017 is $616,556 (2016: $208,474). The company is in arrears on its interest commitments under the debenture note and convertible note facilities. This is not considered a material adverse event by the note holder group leader and is tolerated whilst the company meets product development and revenue growth targets. Should the company lose the confidence of the group leader any interest arrears would be called upon to be caught up and if this did not occur a material adverse event would be triggered and the group leader may call for repayment of the debenture and/or convertible notes.

The Debenture Notes are secured by General Security Agreements (GSA) given by EGY as borrower and Bambach Wires and Cables Pty Ltd as guarantor under a Deed of Guarantee and Indemnity in favour of each note holder, ranking behind permitted encumbrances only. The GSA agreements grant the note holders security interest over the collateral of each grantor, defined as all the grantor's present and after-acquired rights, assets and undertaking of the grantor, including each of the following:

(i) All present and after-acquired property of the Grantor. (ii) All present and after-acquired estates and interests in land in which the Grantor has an interest.
(iii) All present and after-acquired rights, assets and undertaking of the Grantor in any PPSA retention of title property.

Under a Deed of Priority, secured existing convertible note holders for $2.55m of notes have security ranked equally with debenture note holders. The remaining $250,000 of secured convertible notes are secured by a second ranking charge.

(b) During the financial year the group repaid $1,970,170 (2016: $80,417) of both long and short term interest bearing debt. This included full repayment of NAB IF Facility.
(c) During FY 2014 and FY 2015 EGY raised $2,800,000 by the issue of secured convertible notes which mature on 31 December 2018. During FY 2016 EGY raised a further $1,270,000 by the issue of unsecured convertible notes, which mature on 31 December 2020. In total 4,070 Convertible Notes have been issued, each with a face value of one thousand dollars to investors. Each investor is paid interest at the rate of one per cent (1%) per annum on the amount of their commitment from the time of commitment and each Convertible Note bears interest at the rate which is eight percentage points higher than the RBA Cash Rate from time to time, from subscription until conversion. Interest is payable monthly in arrears. Refer to note (a) above for security details of the secured convertible notes
(d) Hire purchase and finance lease liabilities are secured by the underlying financed assets

In 2017 the Australian Government enacted a change in the income tax rate for small business entities (SBE) to 27.50%. For year ended 30 June 2017, Energy Technologies (EGY) has a turnover in excess of $10 million and did not meet the criteria to be a SBE. For year ended 30 June 2018 EGY will satisfy the criteria to be a SBE, as directors do not expect turnover to exceed $25 million. As a result Deferred Tax Asset balances at 30 June 2017 have been stated at 27.50% and 2016 at 30.00%.

Note 32 Financial Risk Management Disclosures

(a) Capital Risk Management

Energy Technologies Limited (EGY) manages its capital to ensure that entities in the EGY Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the potential return to stakeholders through the optimum balance of debt and equity. This strategy remains unchanged from FY2016.

The capital structure of the EGY Group consists of cash and cash equivalents, debt and equity attributable to equity holders of the EGY parent and to its operating subsidiary.

The EGY Group operates internationally through its subsidiary company DPIL based in Hong Kong. The EGY Group senior management monitors all externally imposed capital requirements in each jurisdiction to ensure compliance.

Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand the Group manufacturing and distribution asset base as well as to meet routine outflows including tax and the repayment of maturing debt. The EGY Group Board and senior management consider the costs of capital and monitor the gearing ratio as a proportion of net debt to equity.

The gearing ratio at year end was as follows:

Current and Non Current Financial liabilities Debt (i) Cash and cash equivalents Net Debt Equity (ii) Net Debt to Equity ratio	Consolidated 2017 2016 $ $ 12,552,603 6,714,743 (698,518) (10,724)
	11,854,085 6,704,019 (3,969,784) (1,015,552) (299%) (660%)

(i) Debt is defined as long-term and short-term borrowings.

(ii) Equity includes all capital and reserves and minority interest.

Note 32 Financial Risk Management Disclosures (Cont’d)

(b) Financial Risk Management

In common with other businesses the EGY Group is exposed to risks that arise from the use of financial instruments. This note describes the objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. The EGY Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of facilities with banks, convertible notes, debentures, short term loans, hire purchase, accounts receivable and payable, loans to and from subsidiaries, leases and derivatives. There have been no substantive changes in the EGY Group level of exposure to financial instrument risks or the objectives and processes for managing those risks from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note.

(i) Financial Risk Management Objectives

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the determination of the EGY Group financial risk management framework and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated authority for the design and implementation of operating processes ensuring effective risk management to the EGY Group’s corporate treasury and finance function, which provides services to the business including negotiation and co-ordination of finance facilities, and the monitoring and management of the financial risks as they relate to the operations of the Group. The Board receives regular reports through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the set objectives to control risk.

Overall the risk management strategy seeks to assist the Group in meeting its financial targets as well as minimizing the potential adverse effects on financial performance. The main exposures to financial instrument risk experienced by the EGY Group are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk). The EGY Group does not enter into financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.

(ii) Credit Risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a loss to the EGY Group. This arises principally from the Group’s trade receivables. For the EGY Group this risk has been determined as low.

The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at the end of the reporting period, excluding the value of any collateral or other security held, is equivalent to the carrying amount and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the Statement of Financial Position. Credit risk also arises through the provision of financial guarantees, as approved at Board level, given to parties securing the liabilities of certain subsidiaries and former associates (Refer Notes 19(a) and 26(b) for details).

The Group has a general policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties. As well, a credit check system is also in place and credit checks are obtained from a reputable external source for selected new and overseas customers. Overseas customers’ trade terms include use of documentary credit bank facilities in customer locations deemed at risk, as well as collateral payment. There are no material amounts of collateral held as security at 30 June 2017.

(iii) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management vests with the EGY Board of Directors and the main subsidiary Board of Directors, who apply an appropriate liquidity risk management framework to the Group’s short, medium and long term funding requirements. The EGY Group manages liquidity risk by the retention of adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities and by monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, which are updated regularly by the treasury and finance function, and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

(iv) Liquidity and interest rate tables

The following table details the EGY Group contractual maturity for non-derivative financial assets and liabilities and are based on undiscounted cash flows of financial assets and liabilities on the earliest date on which repayment can be required.

(v) Maturity analysis

Trade and other payables are expected to be paid within a period of 6 months from year end for the consolidated entity for 2017 and 2016.

(vi) Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the EGY Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk within acceptable parameters, while achieving optimum return.

(vii) Foreign currency risk management

The EGY Group is exposed to currency risk on investments that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, primarily the Australian dollar (AUD) and Hong Kong Dollar (HKD). The Group’s investments in, and loans to, its subsidiaries are not hedged as these positions are considered to be long term in nature.

The carrying amount of the EGY Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date is as follows:

US Dollars Euros Hong Kong Dollars Swiss Francs Total	Liabilities 2017 2016 $’000 $’000 283 275 - 86 - - - -	Assets 2017 2016 $’000 $’000 2 2 - - - - 4 12
	283 361	6 14

(viii) Forward exchange contracts

The EGY Group policy is, where possible, to allow group entities to settle liabilities denominated in their functional currency with the cash generated from their own operations in that currency. Where group entities have liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency, cash already denominated in that currency will, where possible, be used from within the Group.

The Group’s primary operating exposure is where trade receivables and payables are not denominated in their functional currency. The overall treasury function is based in Australia where the primary banking facilities are maintained. The Group also enters into forward exchange contracts to buy and sell specified amounts of foreign currencies in the future at stipulated exchange rates, with the objective of protecting the Group against unfavourable exchange rate movements for contracted sales and purchases in foreign currencies, primarily US Dollars.

At 30 June 2017 there were no outstanding forward exchange contracts. The 2016 comparative year details are:

(ix) Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

The following table details the EGY Group’s sensitivity to a 10% increase or decrease in the Australian Dollar against relevant foreign currencies. This sensitivity represents management’s assessment of the reasonable possible change in foreign currency rates. Its analysis includes cash assets plus outstanding foreign currency denominated trade receivables and payables and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number indicates an increase in profit where the Australian dollar strengthens against the respective currency. For a weakening of the Australian dollar against the respective currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit.

(x) Interest Rate Risk Management

The EGY Group is exposed to interest rate risk on cash and cash equivalents, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in the market interest rates on interest bearing financial instruments. The EGY Group does not use derivatives to mitigate these exposures.

The EGY Group’s fixed rate financial instruments represent short term borrowings, at fixed rates maturing over periods less than one year and long term borrowings at fixed rates maturing over periods of between 1 to 5 years. The Group’s variable rate financial securities consist of bank facilities and convertible notes managed in Australia.

(xi) Interest rate sensitivity analysis

The following analysis indicates the effect of a 2% or 200 basis point increase or decrease in nominal interest rates, based on exposures in existence at the reporting date, and holding all other variables constant. This represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates as at that date.

(xii) Price Risk

The EGY Group is exposed to commodity price risk on the purchase of raw materials through its manufacturing operations in Australia. Futures markets and Economic Forecasts are monitored to determine whether to implement a commodity hedging policy.

(xiii) Fair value of financial instruments

The Group uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise:

Level 1 – the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets.

Level 2 – the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).

Level 3 – the value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of the financial instruments as well as the methods used to estimate the fair value are summarised in the table below.

Quoted market price represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets as at the reporting date without any deduction for transaction costs.

For financial instruments not quoted in active markets, the Group uses valuation techniques such as present value techniques, comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist and other relevant models used by market participants. These valuation techniques use both observable and unobservable market inputs.

Financial instruments that use valuation techniques with only observable market inputs or unobservable inputs that are not significant to the overall valuation include interest rate swaps, forward commodity contracts and foreign exchange contracts not traded on a recognised exchange.

Transfer between categories

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the year ended 30 June 2017

Note 33 New and Amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations

(i) New and amended accounting standards and interpretations adopted by the Group

The Group adopted the following Australian Accounting Standards (new and amended) from the mandatory application date of 1 July 2016. The new and amended Standards are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s financial statements except where otherwise stated:

AASB 2014-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards

Amends AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards, which arise from the issuance of AASB 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts.

AASB 2014-3 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations – Amendments to AASB 11

This amendment to AASB 11 Joint Arrangements requires the acquirer of an interest in a joint operation in which the activity constitutes a business, as defined in AASB 3 Business Combinations, to apply all of the principles on business combinations accounting in AASB 3.

AASB 2014-4 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation (Amendments to AASB 116 and AASB 138)

These amendments to AASB 116 and AASB 138 clarify that the use of revenue-based methods to calculate the depreciation of an asset is not appropriate because revenue generated by an activity that includes the use of an asset generally reflects factors other than the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in the asset. The standard also clarified that revenue is generally presumed to be an inappropriate basis for measuring the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in an intangible asset.

AASB 1057 Application of Australian Accounting Standards

This Standard deletes the application paragraphs previously contained in each Australian Accounting Standard (or Interpretation) and moves them into this Standard. The application requirements of each other Australian Accounting Standard have not been amended.

AASB 2014-9 Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements (Amendments to AASB 127)

Amends IAS 27 to permit entities to use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements.

AASB 2015-1 Annual Improvements to Australian Accounting Standards 2012-2014

This Standard makes amendments to various Accounting Standards arising from the IASB’s Annual Improvements process, namely:

AASB 5 - changes in methods of disposal from sale to distribution

AASB 7 – applicability of disclosures to servicing contracts and interim financial statements;

AASB 119 – clarifies that the government bond rate used in measuring employee benefits should be those denominated in the same currency.

AASB 134 – permits the cross referencing of disclosures elsewhere in the financial report.

AASB 2015-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 101

The Standard makes amendments to AASB 101 Presentation Of Financial Statements arising from the IASB’s Disclosure Initiative project.

Note 33 New and Amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations (Cont’d)

(ii) New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted by the Group

Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are not yet mandatorily applicable to the Group are discussed below. These new and amended Standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements except where otherwise stated:

Applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017

AASB 2016-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses [AASB 112]

This Standard amends AASB 112 Income Taxes to clarify the circumstances in which the recognition of deferred tax assets may arise in respect of unrealised losses on debt instruments measured at fair value.

AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards –Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107

This Standard amends AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows to include additional disclosures and reconciliation relating to changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes.

Applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018

AASB 2014-10 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (Amendments to AASB 10 and AASB 128)

Amends AASB 10 and AASB 128 to remove the inconsistency in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. A full gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. The mandatory application date of AASB 2014-10 has been amended and deferred to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 by AASB 2015-10.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments

AASB 9 includes requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and incorporates amendments to the accounting for financial liabilities and hedge accounting rules to remove the quantitative hedge effectiveness tests and have been replaced with a business model test. AASB 9 improves and simplifies the approach for classification and measurement of financial assets compared with the requirements of AASB 139 as follows:

a) Financial assets that are debt instruments will be classified based on (1) the objective of the entity's business model for managing the financial assets; (2) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows.

b) Allows an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument.

c) Financial assets can be designated and measured at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise from measuring assets or liabilities, or recognising the gains and losses on them, on different bases.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the year ended 30 June 2017

Note 33 New and Amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations (Cont’d)

d) Where the fair value option is used for financial liabilities the change in fair value is to be accounted for as follows:

i) The change attributable to changes in credit risk are presented in other comprehensive income (OCI)

ii) The remaining change is presented in profit or loss.

AASB 2012-6 also modifies the relief from restating prior periods by amending AASB 7 to require additional disclosures on transition to AASB 9 in some circumstances. Consequential amendments were made to other standards as a result of AASB 9 by AASB 2014-7 and AASB 2014-8. The mandatory application date of AASB 9 has been deferred to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 by AASB 2014-1.

Although the Directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 may have an impact on the Group’s financial instruments, including hedging activity, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

AASB 15 replaces AASB 118 Revenue, AASB 111 Construction Contracts and four Interpretations issued by the AASB and amends the principles for recognising revenue from contracts with customers. It applies to all contracts with customers except leases, financial instruments and insurance contracts. The Standard requires an entity to recognise revenue on a basis that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that principle, an entity shall apply all of the following steps:

a) identify the contract with a customer;
b) identify the separate performance obligations in the contract;
c) determine the transaction price;
d) allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations in the contract; and
e) recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Consequential amendments to other Standards are made by AASB 2014-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 15. The mandatory application date of AASB 15 has been deferred to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 by AASB 2015-8

Although the Directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 15 may have an impact on the Group’s financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

Applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

AASB 16 Leases

AASB 16 replaces AASB 117 Leases and sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases.

AASB 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee is required to recognise a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligations to make lease payments. A lessee measures right-of-use assets similarly to other non-financial assets (such as property, plant and equipment) and lease liabilities similarly to other financial liabilities. As a consequence, a lessee recognises depreciation of the right-of-use asset and interest on the lease liability, and also classifies

Note 33 New and Amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations (Cont’d)

cash repayments of the lease liability into a principal portion and an interest portion and presents them in the statement of cash flows applying AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows.

AASB 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in AASB 117 Leases. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently.

This Standard applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Earlier application is permitted provided the entity also applies AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers at or before the same date.

Although the Directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 may have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Energy Technologies Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Energy Technologies Limited (the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group)), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and 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 2017 and of its financial 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 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 1(c) in the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss after tax and non-controlling interest of $2,941,203 and incurred negative cash flows from operations of $3,251,666 during the year ended 30 June 2017 and, as of that date, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $4,361,986. These events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1(c), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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.

Key audit matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Capitalised Development Costs ($1,725,964)

Refer to note 16 to the financial report.

Included in the Group’s intangible assets are capitalised development costs $1,725,964 in respect of development products. Capitalised development costs are considered to be a key audit matter due to the quantum of the asset; the degree of management judgement and assumptions applied in measuring the carrying value of the asset; and assessing the presence of impairment of a development phase asset.

The most significant and sensitive judgments incorporated into the assessment for impairment of capitalised development costs include projections of cash flows, discount rates applied and assumptions regarding the Group’s ability to exploit new products.

Other considerations and judgments include whether the capitalised costs qualify for capitalisation as development phase costs in accordance with AASB 138 Intangible Assets . This includes an understanding of the Group’s process for recording and measuring internally developed assets and the Group's ability to complete the development and demonstrate its ability to generate future cash flows from that asset.

Our audit procedures on the development costs included, amongst others:

We assessed whether the projects satisfied the requirements contained in AASB 138 for the capitalisation of development expenditure.
We tested that material costs incurred during the year were appropriately allocated to the correct development asset.
We assessed management's determination of the Group's cash generating units based on our understanding of the nature of the Group's business and how earnings streams are monitored and reported.
We tested the Group's assumptions and estimates used to determine the recoverable value of its assets, including those relating to forecast revenue, cost, capital expenditure, and discount rates by corroborating the key market related assumptions to external data and by reference to our understanding of the business.
We performed sensitivity analysis in two main areas to assess whether the carrying value of the capitalised development costs exceeded its recoverable amount. These were the discount rate and growth assumptions.
We assessed the reasonableness of the estimate of effective useful life for development assets which have commenced sales.

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in Energy Technologies Limited’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.

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 the other information we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

==> picture [132 x 105] intentionally omitted <==

Directors’ responsibility 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 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 Group 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.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at The Australian Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Report on the Remuneration Report

Opinion on the Remuneration Report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 12 to 15 of the directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2017.

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Energy Technologies Limited for the year ended 30 June 2017, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.

Responsibilities

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
