CHAIR’S LETTER

Dear Shareholders

On behalf of your Board of Directors, I would like to share with you the Mighty Kingdom Limited Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2021.

This year was a milestone for Australia’s largest independent games developer. We raised $18 million via our April 2021 Initial Public Offering (IPO) and set the foundation for the next stage of growth in our business.

We already have an extraordinary track record in developing high quality games by collaborating with some of the world’s largest media companies and brands including Disney, LEGO and Sony on titles such as Disney Imagicademy, LEGO Friends: Heartlake Rush and Moose Toys’ nine Shopkins games.

Following the IPO, we have built on these established relationships and have added a number of new projects to our development pipeline. This includes original brand development opportunities as well as in-licensing game development and content creation.

We have signed partnerships with multinational toy maker Mattel and independent Canadian studio East Side Games. These new partnerships represent an important opportunity for us to continue to grow our Work for Hire and in-licensing revenue.

In FY21, we made substantial progress in developing Original IP projects and that investment will continue into FY22. We expect significant growth in our revenue as a result of the investments we are making in developing a suite of larger projects across all gaming platforms and scaling our operations.

We continue to invest in our incredibly talented diverse team of 126 people who are focused on creating content-rich games with engaging narratives to a player base that already exceeds 50 million people worldwide. Supporting this unique team is a passionate and innovative leadership team, led by Philip Mayes, the founder and CEO of Mighty Kingdom.

In addition, we have assembled a diverse Board of Directors, who bring creative, financial, strategic and governance expertise from the entertainment, technology and content creation industries.

The Board would like to thank the players, partners and shareholders for their support of our business and the continuing commitment of our employees throughout the dislocations and uncertainties of the pandemic.

I am so excited about the tremendous opportunity ahead of us and look forward to delivering against that opportunity.

Regards,

Games already in market have exceeded our initial expectations, exemplified by Ava’s Manor which has been downloaded by more than two million players since it launched in Q2 FY21.

Michelle Guthrie Chair

HIGHLIGHTSOVERVIEW

CEO’S LETTER

As Mighty Kingdom’s founder and CEO, I am delighted to update you on the Group’s 2021 financial year performance and to provide a bigger picture of our content creation ambition over the next 12 months.

With an $18 million ASX-listing in April, our Group was given impetus to invest in scalable technologies and expand a pipeline of “games with heart” created by a talented and growing pool of developers.

While COVID-19 challenged many, the pandemic allowed us to attract senior talent from places we would not normally be competitive, at the same time transforming our Adelaide production hub to a multi-site, trans-Tasman operation. This move is changing our business model and how we work, allowing greater flexibility and improved output by our creative team.

The gaming industry has experienced a strong upward trajectory in recent years. According to the 2021 Mobile Gaming Tear Down Report, people now spend five billion hours a week playing mobile games and spend $US120 billion per annum, three times the console market. This highlights that mobile games-driven entertainment is here to stay and underscores Mighty Kingdom’s bright future.

As the world stayed home during COVID-19 and turned to the Entertainment Industry, Mighty Kingdom’s games revenue responded with a 29 per cent rise, driven by its co-developed and original content and supported by in-licensing partnerships.

Investment in our talented creative workforce, supported by a growing marketing capability, is enhancing our storytelling and Original IP development capabilities. This investment, combined with our expanded pipeline, generates significant earnings potential for the Company throughout the next financial year as we leverage our new partnerships with our own creative output.

In the 2022 financial year, Mighty Kingdom will release several new games and our games in market will mature to a revenue realisation phase.

Our Ball Stars launch is expected to join a steady release of new content including for Conan Chop Chop, and in-licensing partners Mattel and East Side Games.

Our first few months as a publicly listed company have been spent investing substantially in our future as well as our creative and marketing capabilities for an exciting year ahead. I anticipate a busy and productive FY22.

Regards,

Philip Mayes Managing Director & CEO

Our collaboration with Sony on Peter Rabbit Run!, was a strong validation of the creative team’s skills in developing this game for a global franchise, ahead of an expected third film. In addition, we had great success with our launches of Danger Days, Gabby’s Dollhouse and Ava’s Manor.

Brand Strengthening Through Reputation

OUR PARTNERS

Mighty Kingdom works with well-known global brands to develop and diversify an already broad skillset. The Group then uses this expertise to enhance its Original IP and Co-development projects.

OVERVIEW

Mighty Kingdom really understood what we set out to do and created a game that both focused on the instant fun and the long term playability. They handled our IP in a truly professional way – always trying to understand what we set out to achieve and what was important to us. Mighty Kingdom created a game for us that not only showed what our IP is about, it also had the retention numbers to prove that the audience loved it! Søren Vejgaard - Product Lead LEGO

As a partner, Mighty Kingdom impressed us by pursuing a collaborative, organized, and adaptable approach throughout production. As the project proceeded, the team always remained open to discussion, responsive to feedback, and inspired with new ideas in the interests of developing a better game.

PLATFORM GROWTH

Traditionally a mobile game developer, now the Group is developing “games with heart” across mobile, console and PC.

Our successful console game partnership with Funcom, Conan Chop Chop, represents the Group’s first move into PC and is due for release in FY22.

The partnership contract with Funcom has been extended to expand the 1-4 player action-adventure game to multiplayer with additional features. Thorough testing throughout FY21 showed great potential and the game underwent further development.

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

ANALYTICS AND BACKEND

Mighty Kingdom is committed to enhancing its games and business using data with analytics running across all games and driving decisions on product investment.

The Group’s backend solution for games on all platforms, MKNet, currently supports games in development, production, and release.

MKNet runs a state-of-the-art backend which supports in-game rewards, language recognition, multi-language templates, access to game data and purchase history. All data complies with GDPR and COPPA guidelines and is anonymous by default, making it suitable for games development targeting younger audiences in all global jurisdictions.

The Group’s complete analytics pipeline controls how data is collected, processed and presented, allowing for informed decisions in all areas of the business.

The data allows access to user segmentation and targeted actions like special offers and A/B testing based on user profile. This includes information on global events, leaderboards, teams, and other segments. Given Mighty Kingdom has derived its data in a GDPR and COPPA compliant setting, the Group is well prepared for regulation of data collection.

Mighty Kingdom has also integrated in-house tools such as resource tracking and inventory systems to assist game developers with managing assets and remote test-server tracking. The internal resource-tracking tool is now integrated with project management software for better reporting and forecasting.

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

OVERVIEW

INVESTING IN STORYTELLING TECHNOLOGY

Narrative elements deliver increased retention of players resulting in high revenues. The Group has developed and continues to optimise the narrative engine Storytelling tool, taking programmers out of the content-development pipeline and giving writers and animators direct input to games. The narrative team has strategically applied our Storytelling technology to three games in development. With products in the market reflecting the narrative talent at the studio, the Group’s skill in this area has been noted as a key reason for its success in working with new partners.

The success of Mighty Kingdom’s technology and approach is recognised as a leading indicator and relationship builder with partners - Canadian studios Uken and East Side Games. The Group’s prime strategy is to target the underserved demographic of women aged 16 to 35, which is also the highest spending demographic for free to play games. Our Storytelling technology provides compelling narrative elements which players love.

Forward Strategy and outlook

Mighty Kingdom is focused on increasing its Original IP output and maximising potential by enhancing our development capabilities. By partnering with global brands in Co-development projects and performing Work for Hire contracts, the Group is able to generate new ideas and maintain a robust pipeline of projects at different stages of their development life cycle.

Through partnership, the Group leverages similarly aligned brands, to maximise learning and insights for its data-analytics engine and reduce the development time frame for Original IP products.

In addition, Mighty Kingdom performs Work for Hire projects that provide essential supporting revenue. These projects enable the Group to promote its capabilities to strategic partners, whilst pursuing Co-development opportunities and providing cash flow for Original IP developments.

STRATEGY 19

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

COMPANY GROWTH

Mighty Kingdom secured a strong cash balance of $13.6 million as at 30 June 2021 to invest in Original IP development.

The Group’s game revenue lifted 29 per cent to $3.28 million from the previous financial year as it delivered work across multiple pipeline projects with strategic partners in line with stronger investment, development and expected output of new “games with heart”.

The Original IP set for self-publishing and through third parties over the next two financial years is strong and will be released through a balanced schedule. Amongst them are multiple titles progressing through early-to-mid stage development for release to market in FY22.

These include an upgrade to multiplayer of action-adventure game Conan Chop Chop and Ball Stars.

The embedded value of the Group’s development pipeline increased this financial year after contract extensions with existing partners Spin Master, Funcom and Uken as well as new contracts signed with Mattel and East Side Games.

The Group is developing leadership through creative talent acquisition and retention and has enhanced its board and senior management with the key hire of Amy Guan in the role of Chief Financial Officer.

Total income grew 42 per cent to $6.13 million which included Government grants, Jobkeeper payments and research and development incentives, reflecting the Group’s continued focus on innovation.

Cost and revenue-sharing of IP development with publishers and other game development partners will, in due course, allow 100 per cent retention of game equity via ownership, development, and Original IP publishing output.

The Group’s talented creative workforce, which is supported by growing marketing capability and backend innovation, delivers compelling content to produce Original IP, Work for Hire and in-license content to reinforce the strategic growth.

STRATEGY 20

Excellent Work Delivered by Happy PeoplE

STAFF GROWTH

Since IPO, resourcing has been a clear focus to ensure Mighty Kingdom is staffed for success. To this end, the Group has increased its development team by 100% as at 30 June 2021. The Group’s workforce is solely focused on delivering original and licensed content for game players on mobile, PC and console platforms.

The Group has built teams with broad, yet complementary technical abilities to ensure each team can work independently and deliver on projects. This allows the Group to maximise the concurrent projects in the pipeline.

The entire team approaches new challenges with a collaborative, innovative, and supportive mindset, and I feel consistently supported by the production and executive teams. I feel proud of the excellent products that we produce, and I feel like my work has had a substantial impact on many of those products. Phoebe - Lead Rigger

Our current workforce is gender balanced and has a diversity of backgrounds in education, culture and language which creates a positive and energised environment.

The Group continues to employ people from broad backgrounds to provide insights which can be embedded in games for wider appeal.

REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company and its controlled entities (the “Group”) present the results for FY21. The results reflect the Group’s continuing capital investment in building scalable technologies and operational capability and expenditure associated with developing a strong pipeline of games to be brought to market in FY22.

SUMMARY

  • Mighty Kingdom commenced trading on the ASX on 21 April 2021 after raising $18m via Initial Public Offering.

  • Strong cash position of $13.6m as at 30 June 2021 to fund investment in Original IP development alongside existing Work for Hire business.

  • 29% increase in game revenue to $3.28m over the previous corresponding year.

  • Mighty Kingdom has continued to invest in hiring and training development teams to work across multiple pipeline projects consistent with the Company’s strategy and the large opportunity ahead of it. This includes the development of Original IP games that are expected to be self-published or published through third parties over FY22 and FY23.

  • Mighty Kingdom increased the embedded value of its development pipeline during FY21 with contracts extended with existing partners (Spin Master, Funcom and Uken) and new contracts signed with Mattel and East Side Games.

This can be summarised as follows:

Normalised loss after income tax (Non statutory disclosure) (5,327) (3,590)

During FY21 the Group reported a 29% increase in game revenue to $3,278,029 (FY20: $2,535,915) and continued year on year total income growth of 42% to $6,125,634, including $861,216 increase from Jobkeeper subsidy, $, $393,780 increase from Research and development tax incentive and $350,000 from SA video game development grant. This reflected the Group’s continuing investment in transition from Work for Hire to Co-development (cost and revenue-sharing of IP development with publishers and other game developers) and in due course retaining 100% of game equity via ownership, development, and publishing of Original IP.

The net loss from continuing operations was $7,145,601 (2020: operating net loss $3,589,665). This increase is due largely to the one-off expenses of $1,818,969 incurred in initial public offering (“IPO”), capital raising and pre-IPO issuance of convertible notes and issue of share options. The remainder of the loss was made up from increased employment costs from additional hires to support the expanding business. Excluding one-off expenses relating to the IPO results in a normalised net loss of $5,326,632.

Commencement date: 1 June 2021

Term of Lease: 2 years and 10 months

(d) Other items

At a general meeting of the Company held on 9 November 2020, Shareholders resolved:

  • To repeal the Company’s existing constitution in its entirety and adopt the ASXcompliant constitution; and

  • To convert each existing ordinary share of the Company into 7 ordinary shares (share split) and reconstructed non-redeemable preference share capital in the same manner.

On 25 August 2021, Mighty Kingdom Limited approved the Short-term incentives (“STI”) program. The program is designed to align the targets of the business with the performance hurdles of the Company. The purpose of the STI plan is to reward and encourage high levels of performance, as well as being a part of Mighty Kingdom’s employer value proposition as well as a retention tool. STI payments are granted to all eligible employees based on specific annual targets being

achieved and a Company Scorecard being measured. The Company Scorecard includes Commercial, Customer, Client and Culture performance metrics.

Executives and Departmental Managers will have their own incentive scorecard, uniquely weighted depending on each position’s focus and accountabilities. All other staff will have their STI payment determined by achievements against the Company Scorecard, as well as considering their own personal performance and contribution.

From May 2021 to August 2021, the consolidated entity, through the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, engaged Mitchellake Australia, remuneration consultants, to review its existing remuneration policies and provide recommendations on how to implement STI programs. Mitchellake Australia was paid $34,000 for these services.

NON-AUDIT SERVICES

During the year, Grant Thornton Audit Pty Ltd the Group’s external auditor, performed certain other services in addition to the audit of the financial statements. Details of the amounts paid or payable to Grant Thornton for non-audit services provided during the financial year are outlined in Note 24 to the financial statements.

The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year by the auditor (or by another person or firm on the auditor’s behalf) was compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001.

The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in Note 24 to the financial statements do not compromise the external auditor’s independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS

The Company expects to deliver on its strategy as outlined in the prospectus issued.

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

From March 2021, the Group paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the Directors of the Company against a liability to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.

  • all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and

  • none of the services 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, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

The Group has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the Company or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor.

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

The Group’s operations are not subject to any particular or significant environmental regulation under a law of the Commonwealth or of a State or Territory in Australia.

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION

A copy of the Auditor’s Independence Declaration as required under s307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is included on page 36 of this financial report and forms part of this Directors’ Report.

Signed by Managing Director

PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF GROUP

The Board considered remuneration of the Non-Executive Directors in detail in the first half of the financial year as part of the due diligence process of preparation of the Prospectus for the Initial Public Offer (IPO) leading to the ASX listing of the Company on 20 April 2021.

A remuneration review for the Managing Director was undertaken in December 2020 and implemented effective from 1 January 2021 at the time of refreshing the Managing Director’s employment agreement in preparation for the IPO. The Board has adopted protocols for engaging and seeking advice from independent remuneration consultants. In FY21, some benchmarking of executive remuneration was undertaken in consultation with recruitment consultants however no remuneration recommendations were provided by remuneration consultants.

Further information about remuneration framework and the relationship between remuneration policy and company performance is set out below.

The Board Charter and the Remuneration and Nomination Committee Charter, which outlines the terms of reference under which the Committee operates, are available www.mightykingdom.com/investors.

(ii) Remuneration framework

The Group’s remuneration framework enables it to attract and retain Executives and Directors who will create value for Shareholders. It aims to reward Executives with a level and mix of fixed and variable remuneration having consideration to the company size and level of activity as well as the relevant Directors’ time, commitment and responsibility.

The remuneration structure that has been adopted by the Group consists of the following components:

  • [Managing Director, Executive Director, and Senior Executives ]

  • Annual base salary and superannuation

  • Performance based remuneration - monetary and non-monetary

  • Equity based remuneration - via an employee share and option scheme.

Executive remuneration comprises fixed remuneration (salary) and may include short-term and long-term incentive plan components. These are set with reference to the Company’s performance and the market. Fixed remuneration, which reflects

the individual’s role and responsibility as well as their experience and skills, includes base pay and statutory superannuation. Variable remuneration may be provided through short-term and long-term incentive plan components, linked to performance measured against operational and financial targets set by the Company, designed to achieve operational and strategic targets for the sustainable growth of the Company and long-term shareholder value. No short-term or long-term incentive elements were implemented for KMP in the financial year ended 30 June 2021. The Board will review the remuneration framework during the coming year.

Relationship between remuneration and group performance

The Board aims to align executive remuneration to the Company’s strategic and business objectives and the creation of shareholder wealth. The table below sets out key metrics in respect of the Group’s performance over the past four years. The remuneration framework is designed to take account of a suitable level for the fixed remuneration in the context of balancing the requirements of a rapidly growing and newly ASX-listed company and focusing on strategic and business objectives to ensure shareholder value. As at 30 June 2021, there are no short-term or long-term incentives in place.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2021

1 GENERAL INFORMATION

Mighty Kingdom Limited (the Company) is a for profit company incorporated and domiciled in Australia and limited by shares which are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX: MKL).

results of the parent (Mighty Kingdom Limited) and all the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. 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. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 12.

The Group’s principal activities are developing a broad portfolio of video games for console, PC and mobile platforms. Mobile games and apps developed and/or published by the Group are made available for customers on different App’s stores, including Apple’s App Store, Google’s Google Play and Valve’s Steam Store. In addition to receiving fees for development work from clients, The Group monetizes its games and apps through In-App purchases and advertising offered to the consumers within games and apps for smartphones and tablets.

2.1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(A) BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL REPORT

The financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and notes of Mighty Kingdom Limited and Controlled Entities (Consolidated Group or Group).

These financial statements are consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) and interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit orientated entities. Mighty Kingdom Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. The Group’s financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical cost conventions.

(B) BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements incorporate all the assets, liabilities and

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non-controlling interests”. The Group initially recognises noncontrolling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets on liquidation at either fair value or the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income.

The consolidated financial statements (post combination) incorporate the acquired entity’s results as if both entities (acquirer and acquire) had always been combined for the year and the comparative financial year.

FINANCIALS

(C) INCOME TAX

The income tax expense (income) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income). Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses.

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are recognised outside profit or loss. Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised, or the liability is settled, and their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. With respect to nondepreciable items of property, plant and equipment measured at fair value and items of investment property measured at fair value, the related deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset is measured on the basis that the carrying amount of the asset will be recovered entirely through sale. When an investment property that is depreciable is held by the entity in a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the property through use over time (rather than through sale), the related deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset is measured on the basis that the carrying amount of such property will be recovered entirely through use.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where: (a) a legally enforceable right of set-off exists; and (b) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities, where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

(D) TAX CONSOLIDATION

Mighty Kingdom Limited and its wholly owned Australian controlled entities have chosen to implement the tax consolidation legislation. The head entity, Mighty Kingdom Limited and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a stand-alone taxpayer in its own right. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Mighty Kingdom Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group. The Group will notify the Australian Tax Office that it has formed an income tax consolidation group to apply from 1 July 2020. The Group has not entered into any tax sharing or funding agreements.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled, and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.

(E) FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly (i.e., 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 or liability. The fair values of assets and liabilities 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 or liability (i.e. the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs).

(F) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

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

(i)

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and are therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. In the event the carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses are recognised either in profit or loss or as a revaluation decrease if the impairment losses relate to a revalued asset. A formal assessment of recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present (refer to Note 2.1(J) for details of impairment).

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised as expenses in profit or loss in the financial period in which they are incurred.

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.

The fair value of liabilities and the entity’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based payment arrangements) may be valued, where there is no observable market price in relation to the transfer of such financial instrument, by reference to observable market information where such instruments are held as assets. Where this information is not available, other valuation techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective note to the financial statements.

(ii) Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets, including buildings and capitalised lease assets but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

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

Asset category Useful life Depreciation rate
Offce equipment 5 Years 20%
Motor Vehicle 4 Years 25%

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss when the item is derecognised.

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

FINANCIALS

==> picture [842 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

(G) LEASE

At inception of a contract, the Group assesses if the contract contains or is a lease. If there is a lease present, a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability is recognised by the Group where the Group is a lessee. However, all contracts that are classified as short-term leases (lease with remaining lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low-value assets are recognised as an operating expense on a straightline basis over the term of the lease.

Initially, the lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments still to be paid at the commencement date. The lease payments are discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate.

Where a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the rightof-use asset reflects that the Group anticipates exercising a purchase option, the specific asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset.

(H) INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Internally developed game and software

Expenditure on the research phase of projects to develop game and software is recognised as an expense as incurred.

Costs that are directly attributable to a project’s development phase are recognised as intangible assets, provided they meet all of the following recognition requirements:

  • the development costs can be measured reliably;

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are as follows:

  • variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date;

  • the amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;

  • the exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options;

  • lease payments under extension options if lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; and

  • payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease.

Subsequently, the lease liability is measured by a reduction to the carrying amount of any payments made and an increase to reflect any interest on the lease liability.

The right-of-use assets is an initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability less any incentives and initial direct costs. Subsequently, the measurement is the cost less accumulated depreciation (and impairment if applicable). Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or useful life of the underlying asset whichever is the shortest.

  • the project is technically and commercially feasible;

  • the Group intends to and has sufficient resources to complete the project;

  • the Group has the ability to use or sell the game and software; and

  • the game and software will generate probable future economic benefits.

Development costs not meeting these criteria for capitalisation are expensed as incurred. Directly attributable costs include employee costs incurred on game and software development, development support service fees, along with an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.

(I) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(i) Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is the date that the Group commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e., trade date accounting is adopted). Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) 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. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted.

42

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

FINANCIALS

==> picture [842 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the trade receivables do not contain a significant financing component or if the practical expedient was applied as specified in AASB 15. A financial liability is measured at fair value through profit or loss if the financial liability is:

  • that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates.

Derecognition

  • a contingent consideration of an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3: Business Combinations applies;

  • held for trading; or

All other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

(ii)

Financial liabilities

Financial instruments are subsequently measured at:

  • amortised cost.

financial liability from the statement of financial position.

A liability is derecognised when it is extinguished (i.e. when the obligation in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires). An exchange of an existing financial liability for a new one with substantially modified terms, or a substantial modification to the terms of a financial liability, is treated as an extinguishment of the existing liability and recognition of a new financial liability.

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest expense in profit or loss over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the internal rate of return of the financial asset or liability. That is, it is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash flows through the expected life of the instrument to the net carrying amount at initial recognition.

A financial asset is derecognised when the holder’s contractual rights to its cash flows expires, or the asset is transferred in such a way that all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred.

All of the following criteria need to be satisfied for derecognition of financial asset:

Financial assets

Financial assets are subsequently measured at:

  • [amortised cost.]

Measurement is on the basis of two primary criteria:

amortised cost:

  • transferred;

  • all risk and rewards of ownership of the asset have been substantially transferred; and

  • the Group no longer controls the asset (i.e. the Group has no practical ability to make a unilateral decision to sell the asset to a third party).

between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.

(J) IMPAIRMENT OF FINANCIAL ASSETS

The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on:

  • contract assets.

(K) IMPAIRMENT OF NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include considering external sources of information and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard.

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

Provision is made for employees’ long service leave and annual leave entitlements not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. Other longterm employee benefits are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. Expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage assumptions for other long term employee benefits, the net change in the obligation is recognised in profit or loss as part of employee benefits expense in the periods in which the changes occur.

The Company’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as noncurrent provisions in its statement of financial position, except where the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period, in which case the obligations are presented as current provisions.

(M)

PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

(L) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Provision is made for the Group’s obligation for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled.

The Group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as part of current trade and other payables in the statement of financial position. The Group’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.

(N) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at-call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown as borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

(O) REVENUE

Revenue arises mainly from the development of the interactive entertainment software products, online game services, online advertising services, and licensing services. The core principle of AASB 15 is that revenue is recognised on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

1. Identifying the contract with customer.

2. Identifying the performance obligation.

3. Determining the transaction price.

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation.

5. Recognising revenue when / as performance(s) obligations are met.

The total transaction price for a contract is allocated amongst the various performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. The transaction price for a contract excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

(ii) Online game revenue

The Group operates its online games primarily as a free to play model. Players can purchase online virtual items through third party payment platforms. These providers are entitled to a predetermined percentage of service fees which are withheld and deducted from the gross proceeds collected by these platforms from the players, with the net amounts remitted to the Group. The Group recognises revenue on a gross basis given it is the principle in these transactions. The service fees are recorded as expenses in the statement of profit or loss. We recognise revenue ratably over the estimated average playing period of players for the applicable game.

(iii) Advertising revenue

Revenue is recognised either at point in time or over time. When (or as) the Group satisfies performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services to its customers.

The Group recognises contract liabilities for consideration received in respect of unsatisfied performance obligations and reports these amounts as other liabilities in the statement of financial position. Similarly, if the Group satisfies a performance obligation before it receives the consideration, the Group recognises either a contract asset or a receivable in its statement of financial position, depending on whether something other than passage of time required before the consideration is due.

Advertising contracts are signed to establish the prices and advertising services to be provided based on different arrangements. The major arrangement is display-based advertising and such revenue are recognised on number of display or view impression basis. This performance obligation is satisfied over time as the advertisers receive and consume benefits simultaneously provided by the Group when the advertisements are displayed.

(iv) License revenue

License revenue is generated from granting a license to a customer with a right to access the Group’s intellectual property. The license revenue is recognised on a straight-line method over the license period.

(i) Game development revenue

Game development revenue is generated from work-for-hire contracts and codevelopment contracts. Each contract is assessed separately using the five-step method above. The transaction price generally comprises fixed development fee and variable royalties. Constraints of variable consideration is considered for each contract. As the Group’s game development creates and enhances the game that the customer controls as the game is developed, revenue is recognised over time as the Group satisfies performance obligations by transferring the promised services to the customers according to the contract. The works in these game development projects are usually constant or nearly constant throughout the lifetime of a project. Development revenue is recognised in accordance with an input method and the straight-line method.

(P) OTHER INCOME

(i) Other income Other income is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.

(ii) Government grant income

Government grants, including non-monetary grants at fair value, are only recognised when there is reasonable assurance that:

  • all conditions attaching to the Government grant will be complied with;

  • • the value of the grant can be determined with reasonable certainty; and • the grant will be received.

45

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

FINANCIALS

==> picture [842 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

Government grants are recognised in the profit or loss over the periods in which the Group recognises related expenses. Where government grants relate to costs which have been capitalised as non-current assets these are recognised as a reduction to the related non-current asset in the consolidated statement of financial position and transferred to profit or loss over the useful lives of the related assets. Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable.

(Q) FOREIGN CURRENCY

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currencies at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year adjusted for payments during the year and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the year.

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Refer to Note 2.1(J) for further discussion on the determination of impairment losses.

(S) TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES

Trade and other payables represent the liabilities for goods and services received by the Company that remain unpaid at the end of the reporting period. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amounts normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

(T) SHARE CAPITAL

Ordinary shares, and preference shares which do not result in the Group having a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset, or to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with the holder under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the Group, are classified as equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates on the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve, in equity. If the foreign operation is not a wholly owned controlled entity, then the relevant proportion of the translation difference is allocated to non-controlling interests. Exchange differences arising on translation of the foreign controlled entity are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate reserve within equity. The cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss when the net investment is disposed of.

(R) TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.

(U) SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees and directors. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees and directors in exchange for the rendering of services.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. Judgements are also applied in relation to estimations of the number of options which are expected to vest, by reference to historic attrition rates and expected outcomes under relevant performance conditions.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to

46

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

FINANCIALS

==> picture [842 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

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. Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied.

(V) GOODS AND SERVICES TAX (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from financing and investing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers.

(Y) CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The Directors evaluate estimates and judgements 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 Company.

(i) Impairment - general

The Group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluation of 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) Research and development incentive

Research and development incentive is recognised at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the income will be received. The expected future R&D tax incentive, for qualifying R&D expenditure for the current financial year, has been accrued and is also recognised as other income in the statement of profit and loss. It has been established that the conditions of this future R&D incentive have been met and that the expected amount of the incentive can be reliably measured.

(iii) Initial public offering costs

(W) SEGMENTAL REPORTING

The Group reports its business activities in one area: video games development, which is reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting to the Board of Directors, which has been identified as the chief operating decision maker. The Board of Directors consists of the Executive Directors and the Non-Executive Directors.

(X) COMPARATIVE FIGURES

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

The Group undertook an IPO to list on the ASX during the year. Costs incurred that are directly attributable and incremental to the issuance of new equity (net of tax) have been recognised in equity as an offset to the proceeds of capital raised. Management exercised judgement in determining an allocation methodology (between equity and expense) for costs which relate to both the issuance of new equity and other activities. The Group’s methodology was determined with reference to the ratio of the number of new shares issued in raising capital to the number of the existing shares prior to IPO, and the nature and purpose of services rendered in incurring costs. All other costs were expensed in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the year.

(iv) Recognition of deferred tax assets

The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognised is based on an assessment of the probability that future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax loss carry-forwards can be utilised.

47

MIGHTY KINGDOM LIMITED • ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21

FINANCIALS

==> picture [842 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

(v) The Novel Coronavirus (‘COVID-19’)

Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic has had, or may have, on the Group based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the Group operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the Group unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

2.2 NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ADOPTED DURING THE YEAR

The new and amended accounting standards, and Interpretations which came into effect on 1 July 2020 do not have impact to the Group’s financial statements.

The 30 June 2021 financial statements, and respective notes to the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the new and amended accounting standards. The accounting policies in the notes below have also been updated to reflect the new and amended accounting standards in effect during the period.

In April 2021, the International Financial Reporting Standards Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) issued a final agenda decision, Configuration or customisation costs in a cloud computing arrangement. The decision discusses whether configuration or customisation expenditure relating to cloud computing arrangements is able to be recognised as an intangible asset and if not, over what time period the expenditure is expensed.

The Group’s accounting policy has not capitalised any costs related to cloud computing arrangements as intangible assets in the Statement of Financial Position. Therefore, there are no impacts to the Group’s current and historical financial statements.

2.3 STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE

There are several new accounting standards and amendments issued, but not yet effective, none of which have been early adopted by the Group in this Financial Report. The new standards and amendments (noted below), when applied in future periods, are not expected to have a material impact on the financial position of the Group.

(i) Co-development and Original IP revenue

The Group shares the development costs with game publishers and other game developers in Co-development projects. Co-development between studios is how developers expand their business, create compelling products, add expertise, workforce, and resources while keeping a realistic focus on return on investment.

Original IP is concepts and IP originated and owned by the Group. The Group may transfer certain rights to such IP, originated by the Group, to the client for a finite period or in perpetuity, typically earning a combination of fixed consideration in the form of development revenue and variable consideration such as royalties or similar income. Both development revenue and variable revenue are reassessed at each reporting date (with changes in the estimate recognised in the income statement) and recognised over the term of each contract.

(a) The Jobkeeper subsidy is a government subsidy for businesses significantly affected by COVID-19, the Jobkeeper payment finished on 28 March 2021.

(b) SA video game development grant enables video games studios to claim a percentage of costs incurred to develop a video game in South Australia. This rebate is administered by the South Australian Film Corporation and will be paid by the South Australian Government during the next financial year.

Where the Group fully funds the development of its Original-IP and retains legal title to such IP, it will earn game revenues or similar income. The Group may, at times, license such IP to clients with a view to maximising game revenues. The license revenue is recognised on a straight-line method over the license period.

(c) The Research and development tax Incentive is a government program that aims to stimulate Australian investment in Research and development (“R&D”). The tax incentive reduces company R&D costs by offering tax offsets or tax refund for eligible R&D expenditure.

(ii) Licensed projects

The Group develops games by obtaining a license from licensor with a right to access the client’s intellectual property, and the revenue is generated from In-app purchase, advertising or other monetisation methods.

(iii) Work for Hire

Work for Hire projects are projects delivered under Work for Hire agreements which include contractual obligation agreed upon on with the clients. The agreements also include a timeline for project, a detailed work schedule, project milestones and terms of payment. The agreement may also be used to ensure that the contractor doesn’t retain any rights over the product or the work created.

The Group did not recognise deferred income tax assets in respect of tax losses of $7,111,192 as at 30 June 2021 (2020: $3,327,349) that can be carried forward against future taxable income.

Mighty Kingdom Limited and its wholly owned Australian controlled entities have chosen to implement the tax consolidation legislation. The head entity, Mighty Kingdom Limited and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a stand-alone tax payer in its own right. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Mighty Kingdom Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group. The Group will notify the Australian Tax Office that it has formed an income tax consolidation group to apply from 1 July 2020.

statement of financial position as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. Variable lease payments which do not depend on an index or a rate (such as lease payments based on a percentage of Group sales) are excluded from the initial measurement of the lease liability and asset. The Group classifies its right-of-use assets in a consistent manner to its property, plant and equipment (see Note 10).

Each lease generally imposes a restriction that, unless there is a contractual right for the Group to sublet the asset to another party, the right-of-use asset can only be used by the Group. For leases over office buildings the Group must keep those properties in a good state of repair and return the properties in their original condition at the end of the lease. Further, the Group must insure

(a) On 20 November 2020, Mighty Kingdom Services Pty Ltd has arranged an interest-free payment plan with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) to repay the outstanding tax liabilities over the next four years, which related to its outstanding GST and PAYG withholding obligations.

Short-term incentives program

On 25 August 2021, Mighty Kingdom Limited approved the Short-term incentives (“STI”) program. The program is designed to align the targets of the business with the performance hurdles of the Company. The purpose of the STI plan is to reward and encourage high levels of performance, as well as being a part of Mighty Kingdom’s employer value proposition as well as a retention tool. STI payments are granted to all eligible staffs based on specific annual targets being achieved and a Company Scorecard being measured. The Company Scorecard includes Commercial, Customer, Client and Culture.

Executives and Departmental Managers will have their own incentive scorecard, uniquely weighted depending on each position’s focus and accountabilities. All other staff will have their STI payment determined by achievements against the Company Scorecard, as well as considering their own personal performance and contribution.

From May 2021 to August 2021, the consolidated entity, through the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, engaged Mitchellake Australia, remuneration consultants, to review its existing remuneration policies and provide recommendations on how to implement STI programs. Mitchellake Australia was paid $34,000 for these services.

26 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK

The Board’s overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Group in meeting its financial targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance. Risk management policies are approved and reviewed by the Board on a regular basis. These include the credit risk policies and future cash flow requirements.

Senior Executive meet on a regular basis to analyse financial risk exposure in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts. The overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Group in meeting its financial targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance.

SPECIFIC FINANCIAL RISK EXPOSURES AND MANAGEMENT

The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk relating to interest rate risk and other price risk. There have been no substantive changes in the types of risks the Company is exposed to, how these risks arise, or the Board’s objectives, policies and processes for managing or measuring the risks from the previous period.

(a) Credit risk

Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential nonperformance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group. The Group’s objective in managing credit risk is to minimise the credit losses incurred, mainly on trade receivables.

Credit risk is managed through maintaining procedures that ensure, to the extent possible, that clients and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness and their financial stability are monitored and assessed on a regular basis. Such monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment.

Cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may therefore differ from that disclosed.

The allowance for expected credit losses in respect of receivables is used unless the Group is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible; at that point the amounts are considered irrecoverable and are written off against the financial asset directly.

(ii)

Cash and cash equivalents

The Group held cash of $13,553,042 as at 30 June 2021 (2020: $81,656), which represents its maximum credit exposure on these assets. The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties. All cash and cash equivalents are held with large reputable financial institutions within Australia and therefore credit risk is considered minimal.

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The table below reflects an undiscounted contractual maturity analysis for nonderivative financial liabilities.

(c) Market risk

(i) Interest rate risk

Exposure to interest rate risk arises on interest-bearing financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect either the future cash flows (in the case of variable interest instruments) or the fair value financial instruments (in the case of fixed rate instruments).

The Company manages interest rate risk by ensuring that, whenever possible, payables are paid within any pre-agreed credit terms.

(ii) Currency risk

The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk (i.e. USD) on sales and purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the AUD.

Management controls the capital of the Group to maintain a sustainable debt to equity ratio, generate long-term shareholder value and ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern.

The Group’s debt and capital include ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues.

At 30 June 2021, had the Australian dollar moved, with all other variables held constant, pre-tax loss would have been affected as follows:

Pre-tax loss ($)
(Higher) / Lower
2021 2020
Consolidated
+5% (500 basis points) (26,650) (25,725)
- 5% (500 basis points) 29,007 28,433

The impact on the Group’s total comprehensive income is due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities. Movements in foreign currency exchange rates will result in gains or losses being recognised because of the revaluation of balances. The Group’s exposure of foreign currency is immaterial for the current reporting year.

There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the issue of the prospectus. This strategy is to ensure that the Group’s gearing ratio remains below 70%. The changes in net debt and total equity since 2020 were mainly driven by the IPO and capital raising occurred in April 2021.

The gearing ratios for the years ended 30 June 2021 as follows:

J L Humphrey Partner – Audit & Assurance Adelaide, 28 September 2021

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

Responsibilities of the Directors 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.

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.
