Review and results of operations

The loss after tax for the half-year ended 31 December 2013 was $72,908 (31 December 2012: $250,066).

Incomplete records

Due to funding difficulties throughout the period the Company reviewed various strategies for the ongoing development and commercialisation of its technology and products. As a result of this review, product development and trading operations were minimised and in April 2011 the operations of the Group were placed on care and maintenance. At its request the Company was suspended from trading on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) on 5 April 2011.

On 29 August 2014, the Board resolved to place the Company into voluntary administration and appointed Mr Mark Summers and Mr Jack James of Palisade Business Consulting as joint and several administrators of the Company. Following appointment of the administrators, the powers of the Company’s officers (including Directors) were suspended and the administrators assumed control of the Company’s business, property and affairs.

The financial report has been prepared by Directors who were not in office for the periods presented in this report, nor were they parties involved with the Company and did not have oversight or control over the group’s financial reporting systems including but not limited to being able to obtain access to complete accounting records of the Company In addition, the Directors have not been able to source books and records of the company’s subsidiaries and associate. Accordingly, the financial information of the group’s subsidiaries has been deconsolidated effective 1 July 2010.. The Directors who prepared this financial report were appointed on or after 5 June 2015. Every reasonable effort has been made by the Directors to ascertain the true position of the Company as at 31 December 2013.

To prepare the financial report, the Directors have reconstructed the financial records of the Group using data extracted from the Group’s accounting system for the entire financial year. However, there may be information that the current Directors have not been able to obtain, the impact of which may or may not be material on the financial statements.

Half-Year Report – 31 December 2013

Advanced Engine Components Limited

These financial statements do not contain all the required information or disclosures in relation transactions undertaken by the Company as this information is unascertainable due to the administration process and/or the change in directorships and key management personnel.

The Company must seek shareholder approval to convert the loaned amounts no later than 3 months after 22 September 2015. Subject to the Shareholder approval being obtained, each convertible loan holder irrevocably directs the Company to satisfy the repayment of the funds advanced by issuing shares at a deemed issue price of $0.02 per Share upon conversion.

Advanced Engine Components Limited Half-Year Report – 31 December 2013

1 Reporting Entity

The consolidated financial statements of Advanced Engine Components Limited (“the Company”) for the half-year ended 31 December 2013 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 18 November 2015. The Company was incorporated in Australia. The Group is a for-profit entity

2 Basis of Preparation of Half-year Report

(a) Statement of Compliance

The half-year financial report is a general purpose condensed financial report prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ where possible (refer to note 2 (b)).

The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

This half-year report does not include the full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the Company as in the full financial report.

It is recommended that this half-year financial report is read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2013 and any public announcements made by Advanced Engine Components Limited during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.

The Accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this half-year financial report are consistent with those followed in preparation of the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as of 1 July 2013.

AASB 119 (Revised 2011) Employee Benefits
AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements
AASB 11 Joint Arrangements
AASB 12 Disclosure of interests in Other Entities
AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement

The nature and impact of each new standard or amendment is described below:

AASB 119 (Revised 2011) Employee Benefits

The revised standard changes the definition of short term employee benefit. The distinction between short-term and other long-term employee benefits is now based on whether the benefits are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the reporting date.

The change in distinction between short-term and other long-term employee benefits did not have a significant impact on the Group.

Advanced Engine Components Limited

Half-Year Report – 31 December 2013

(a) Statement of Compliance (continued)

AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

AASB 10 establishes a single control model that applies to all entities including special purpose entities. AASB 10 replaces parts of previously existing AASB 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements that dealt with consolidated financial statements and SIC-12 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. AASB 10 changes the definition of control such that an investor controls the investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvements with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. To meet the definition of control in AASB 10, all three criteria must be met, including:

a) An investor has power over an investee;
b) the investor has exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

c) the investor has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns.

The standard did not impact the Group as the Directors have not been able to obtain financial information of the group’s subsidiaries and accordingly, the group’s subsidiary has been deconsolidated effective 1 July 2010.

AASB 11 Joint Arrangements

AASB 11 replaces AASB 13 Interests in Joint Venture and SIC-13 Jointly-controlled Entities – Non-monetary Contributions by Venturers. AASB 11 removes the option to account for jointly controlled entities (JCEs) using proportionate consolidation. Instead JCEs that meet the definition of a joint venture under AASB 11 must be accounted for using the equity method.

AASB 11 had no impact on the Group as the Group has no joint operations.

AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

AASB 12 sets out the requirements for disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and structured entities. None of these disclosure requirements are applicable for the half-year financial report.

AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement

AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance under AASB for all fair value measurements. AASB 13 does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather provides guidance on how to measure fair value under AASB when fair value is required or permitted. AASB 13 also requires specific disclosures on fair values, some of which replace existing disclosure requirements in other standards, included AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures.

AASB 13 did not have a significant impact as the Group does not have significant assets or liabilities carried at fair value.

(b) Incomplete records

The financial report has been prepared by Directors who were not in office for the periods presented in this report, nor were they parties involved with the Company and did not have oversight or control over the group’s financial reporting systems including but not limited to being able to obtain access to complete accounting records of the Company. In addition, the Directors have not been able to source books and records of the company’s subsidiaries and associate. Accordingly, the financial information of the group’s subsidiaries has been deconsolidated effective 1 July 2010. The Directors who prepared this financial report were appointed on or after 5 June 2015. Every reasonable effort has been made by the Directors to ascertain the true position of the Company as at 31 December 2013.

Advanced Engine Components Limited Half-Year Report – 31 December 2013

(b) Incomplete records (continued)

3 Going Concern Basis

The group incurred a loss of $72,908 for the half-year ended 31 December 2013. In addition, the Group has net current liabilities and shareholders’ deficit of $11,324,158.

The financial report has been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis because under the DOCA effectuated on 23 September 2015 the Company has extinguished all liabilities associated with the previous administration of the Company is in the process of undertaking the following transactions:

Completion of a capital raising to raise a minimum of $3,400,000.
Acquisition of Investia Technologies Pty Ltd (“Investia”), a software and technology development company. In consideration for the acquisition, ACE will issue to Investia shareholders:
17,500,000 fully paid ACE shares at a deemed price of $0.02 and 17,500,000 options exercisable at $0.03 each, expiring three years from date of issue.
Up to 32,500,000 deferred consideration shares subject to certain milestones being achieved.

Refer to Note 10: Events subsequent to reporting date for further details.

The cash flow forecast indicates that based on the completion of the capital raising as described above, the consolidated entity will have sufficient cash flows to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for a period of at least 12 months from the signing of this financial report. The Directors are also confident that all the necessary regulatory approvals and requirements will be met to enable the Company to be re-instated on the ASX and for the transaction with Investia to proceed. Accordingly, the Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of the preparation is appropriate.

Should the Group not achieve the matters set out above, there is significant uncertainty whether the Group will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

The financial report does not contain any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern.

4 Segment Information

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. The group previously reported its segments on geographical location. As disclosed in Note 2(b), the Directors have not been able to obtain financial information of the group’s subsidiaries and accordingly, the financial information of the group’s subsidiaries have been

Advanced Engine Components Limited

Half-Year Report – 31 December 2013

deconsolidated effective 1 July 2010. The financial information reflected in these financial statements only relate to the Australian geographical location which relate entirely to Advanced Engine Components Limited only.

As detailed in Note 2 (b), the directors do not have access to sufficient information to enable additional entity level disclosures to be made.

5 Dividends

No dividend has been paid or proposed in respect of the current or previous half year (2012: Nil).

The terms and conditions of the above borrowings are consistent with those disclosed in the 30 June 2013 financial statements.

8 Commitments and Contingencies

In prior years, the Company facilitated a US$700,000 loan (balance at 31 December 2013: US$615,000) from an unrelated company, CCM Global Limited, to the company’s associate, Monika ACE Limited. The loan was delivered directly to Monika ACE Limited and did not involve cash flow through the Company. The loan was only repayable to CCM Global Limited if amount receivable from Monika ACE Limited was collected. As at 31 December 2013, the receivable from Monika ACE Limited was impaired and accordingly, the liability has been written back against the asset as the liability is not considered payable. If the receivable from Monika ACE Limited is collected then ACE would have a liability due to CCM Global Limited.

Other than the above, as detailed in Note 2 (b), the Directors do not have access to sufficient information to enable detailed disclosure to be made regarding contingent liabilities and commitments.

To the members of Advanced Engine Components Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Advanced Engine Components Limited and its controlled entities (‘the consolidated entity”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2013, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors’ responsibility for the half-year financial report

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

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review conducted in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. Because of the matters described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Review Conclusion paragraphs, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate review evidence to provide a basis for a review conclusion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor’s Independence Declaration, a copy of which is included in the Directors’ Report.

Basis for disclaimer of review conclusion

As disclosed in Note 2(b) to the half-year financial report, the half-year financial report has been prepared by the current Directors who were not in office for period presented in the 31 December 2013 half-year financial report and accordingly, did not have oversight or control over the consolidated entity’s financial reporting systems, risk management systems, or internal control systems for the period presented.

Due to the above, the current Board of Advanced Engine Components Limited has been unable to conclude without qualification, within its directors’ declaration, that the half-year financial report of the consolidated entity for the half-year ended 31 December 2013 have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards, to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the consolidated entity as at 31 December 2013 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date.

The representation letter provided to the auditors by the current Directors of the company has also been qualified on the basis that they did not have oversight or control over the consolidated entity’s

MH:VH:ADVANCEDENGINE:013

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation

financial reporting systems, risk management systems, or internal control systems for the period presented.

As a result of the above matters, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate review evidence for the existence, measurement, valuation, rights and obligations, completeness and disclosures relating to the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of Advanced Engine Components Limited, its subsidiaries and associate as at 31 December 2013 and for the half-year then ended.

We audited the financial statements of the consolidated entity for the financial year ended 30 June 2013, for which we were unable to and did not express an opinion as to the truth and fairness of the financial position of the consolidated entity as at 30 June 2013 and of its performance for the year ended on that date due to the existence of the limitation of the scope of our work as detailed in our disclaimer of auditor’s opinion dated 18 November 2015. Certain balances as at 30 June 2013 enter into the determination of financial performance for the half-year ended 31 December 2013. Further, the financial position of the consolidated entity at 30 June 2013 is shown as comparatives in the 31 December 2013 half-year financial report.
We reviewed the financial statements of the consolidated entity for the half-year ended 31 December 2012, for which we were unable to and did not express a review conclusion as to the truth and fairness of the financial position of the consolidated entity as at 31 December 2012 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date due to the existence of limitations on the scope of our work as detailed in our disclaimer of auditor’s conclusion dated 18 November 2015. The financial performance of the consolidated entity for the half-year ended 31 December 2012 is shown as comparatives in the 31 December 2013 half-year financial report.
The current Board of Advanced Engine Components Limited has not been able to source and provide to ourselves certain books and records of the company. Without access to this documentation, we are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate review evidence for the existence, measurement, valuation, rights and obligations, completeness and disclosures relating to the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of Advanced Engine Components Limited as reflected in the financial statements as at 31 December 2013 and for the half-year then ended.
The current Board of Advanced Engine Components Limited has also not been able to source and provide to ourselves books and records of the company’s subsidiaries. As detailed in Note 2(b) to the half-year financial report, the financial information of the subsidiaries has been deconsolidated from 1 July 2010. Under Australian Accounting Standards, the financial information of subsidiaries should be consolidated. Had the financial information of the subsidiaries been consolidated, many elements in the accompanying financial report would have been materially affected. The effects on the financial report of the failure to consolidate the subsidiaries financial position as at 31 December 2013 and its performance for the half-year then ended have not been able to be determined.
The current Board of Advanced Engine Components Limited has not been able to source and provide to ourselves books and records of the company’s associate. The investment in the associate was impaired to nil at 30 June 2011 and is being carried at a nil value at 31 December 2013. We were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate review evidence concerning the carrying amount of the company’s investment in the associate as at 31 December 2013 and the company’s share of the associate’s profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the half-year then ended.
As detailed in Note 2(b), the directors have reconstructed the financial records of the consolidated entity using data extracted from the consolidated entity’s accounting system and the financial statements do not contain all required information or disclosures in relation to transactions undertaken by the consolidated entity.

Disclaimer of review conclusion

Because of the significance of the matters described in the basis for disclaimer of review conclusion paragraphs, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate review evidence to provide a basis for a review conclusion. Accordingly we do not express a review conclusion on the financial report for the halfyear ended 31 December 2013.

Emphasis of matter

Without amendment to our disclaimer of review conclusion, we draw attention to Note 3 in the financial report. The conditions as set forth in Note 3 indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the consolidated entity may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

Due to the matters described in the basis for disclaimer of review conclusion paragraphs, we have not been given all information, explanation and assistance necessary for the conduct of the review; and we are unable to determine whether the company has kept:

a) financial records sufficient to enable the financial report to be prepared and reviewed; and
b) other records and registers as required by the Corporations Act 2001 .
