Comments

The loss for the Group after providing for income tax amounted to $12,156,861 (30 June 2020: $4,106,988).

On 11 May 2021, EP&T Global Limited (‘EPX’) was admitted to the Official List of ASX Limited (‘ASX’). Official quotation of EPX’s ordinary fully paid shares commenced on 12 May 2021. EPX raised $11,000,000 pursuant to the offer under its prospectus dated 19 March 2021 ('Prospectus') by the issue of 55,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.20 per share.

Refer to Market announcement, which precedes the Appendix 4E, for further commentary on the results for the year ended 30 June 2021.

Underlying earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation ('EBITDA') is a financial measure which is not prescribed by the Australian Accounting Standards (‘AASBs’) and represents the loss under AASBs adjusted for specific items, including the change in fair value of convertible notes, impairment of assets, Initial Public Offering ('IPO') costs, finance costs related to convertible notes and share-based payments expense. The directors consider Underlying EBITDA to be one of the key financial measures of the Group.

The following table summarises key reconciling items between statutory after tax result attributable to the shareholders of the Company and Underlying EBITDA:

EP&T Global Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2021

==> picture [87 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

Note 1. Principles of consolidation and common control transaction

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of EP&T Global Limited ('Company' or 'parent entity') as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. EP&T Global Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'Group'.

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Corporate/Group reorganisation - EP&T Global Limited and EP&T Pty Limited Aggregated Group

EP&T Global Limited was incorporated on 15 October 2020. On 19 March 2021, the shareholders of the Company undertook a corporate reorganisation, in which EP&T Global Limited acquired EP&T Pty Limited Aggregate Group ('Aggregated Group') which is comprised of EP & T Pty Limited, EP & T Global Limited (UK), EP & T Global Limited (HK) and EP & T FZ LLC (Dubai). Under the principals of corporate reorganisation, in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards, the financial statements of EP&T Global Limited includes the historical financial information of the Aggregated Group for the period before the acquisition.

Accordingly, the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021 presents the financial results for the consolidated Group under EP&T Global Limited for the period from acquisition to 30 June 2021 and the consolidated Group under the Aggregated Group for the 1 July 2020 and 30 June 2021. The comparatives presented in the financial statements represent the financial position of the Aggregated Group as at 30 June 2020, and the financial performance of the Aggregated Group for the year ended 30 June 2020.

This corporate reorganisation did not represent a business combination in accordance with AASB 3 ‘Business Combination’. Instead the appropriate accounting treatment for recognising the new Group structure is on the basis that the transaction is a form of capital reconstruction and Group reorganisation. Accordingly the financial statements are a continuation of the Aggregated Group and as such:

  • The assets and liabilities recognised and measured are at carrying amounts of the Aggregated Group;

  • The retained earnings and other equity balances recognised are the existing retained earnings and other equity balances of the Aggregated Group;

  • The amount recognised as issued equity instruments are determined by adding the additional equity retained by the Group to the issued equity recorded in the Aggregated Group’s financial statements immediately before the acquisition;

  • No 'new' goodwill has been recognised as a result of the combination. The difference between the consideration paid and the equity 'acquired' is reflected in equity as a 'capital contribution'; and

  • The comparatives presented are that of the Aggregated Group.

Note 2. Operating segments

Identification of reportable operating segments

The Group is organised into four operating segments: based on the geographic markets they serve. These operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. There is no aggregation of operating segments.

Upon becoming a listed entity, the CODM now reviews EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) for each reportable segment’s measure of profit or loss. In the comparative period the CODM reviewed each reportable segment’s share of statutory profit or loss before tax. The comparative period segment disclosures has not been updated to include EBITDA. The accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements.

The information reported to the CODM is on a monthly basis.

==> picture [87 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

Note 2. Operating segments (continued)

Intersegment transactions

Intersegment transactions were made at market rates. Intersegment transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

Intersegment receivables, payables and loans

Intersegment loans are initially recognised at the consideration received. Intersegment loans receivable and loans payable that earn or incur non-market interest are not adjusted to fair value based on market interest rates. Intersegment loans are eliminated on consolidation.

Major customers

There are no significant customers in any reported segment that comprise greater than 10% of the Group revenues.

* Share-based payments

Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees in the form of options over shares. The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the share price at grant date, the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods.

The Group leases buildings for its offices under agreements of between 1 to 2.5 years with, in some cases, options to extend. Leases are for office space in Australia, Hong Kong, UK and Dubai. The leases have various escalation clauses. On renewal, the terms of the leases are renegotiated.

The Group has elected not to recognise a lease liability for short term leases (leases with an expected term of 12 months or less) or for leases of low value assets. Payments made under such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis. In addition, certain variable lease payments are not permitted to be recognised as lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred.
