This period also brought many highlights. In August we appointed Nigel Smith as our new factory manager in Brisbane. Nigel has over 30 years experience in the lighting manufacturing industry and is a great asset to FOS. In September we changed our distribution of the Megabay product range in NSW bringing it back in house. In October we appointed Integral Lighting our exclusive Distributor in the ACT.

Financial report for half-year ended 31 December 2020

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT

The condensed consolidated half year financial report does not include all notes of the type normally included within the annual financial report.

It is recommended that this half-year financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2020 of FOS Capital Ltd.

FOS Capital Limited was incorporated 31 October 2019 and legally acquired its 100% owned subsidiary FOS Lighting Group Pty Ltd on 31 December 2019. Notwithstanding this, the profit and loss and cash flow comparatives (together with any relevant notes) presented in these financial statements are those of the FOS Group, being the combined entity of FOS Capital Limited, FOS Lighting Group Pty Ltd and its 100% controlled subsidiary, FOS Lighting Pty Ltd. The directors have elected to present these comparatives as the transaction between FOS Lighting Group Pty Ltd was executed solely for the structuring purpose of readying FOS Group for a listing on the Australian Securities Exchange.

This condensed half-year financial report covers FOS Capital Ltd and controlled entities as a consolidated entity. FOS Capital Ltd is a for-profit company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The registered office and principal place of business of FOS Capital Ltd is located at 14 Jaybel Street Salisbury QLD 4107.

The half-year financial report was authorised for issue by the directors as at the date of signing the attached Directors’ Declaration.

(a) Basis of accounting

This condensed consolidated half-year financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting, as appropriate for for-profit entities, and the Corporations Act 2001. Compliance with AASB 134, as appropriate for for-profit entities, ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

The condensed consolidated half-year financial report includes the consolidated results of FOS Capital Ltd and its controlled entities FOS Lighting Group Pty Ltd and FOS Lighting Pty Ltd for the half year ended 31 December 2020 (collectively, the FOS Group).

The half-year financial report has been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention.

The accounting policies applied in this half-year financial report are consistent with those of the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2019 and the corresponding half-year.

(b) Accounting for the investment in JSB Lighting

The investment in JSB Lighting is treated as an investment which applies the equity method of accounting. Under this method of accounting the initial investment is recognised at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, an amount is recognised in the profit or loss for the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of JSB Lighting. This method of accounting is applied whilst the Group’s retains a significant influence, but not control in JSB Lighting.

In evaluating their application of the equity method and in reasoning why the Group was yet to control JSB Lighting, the directors considered the following key matters:

  • The Group’s investment in JSB Lighting is 50%;

  • The option held by the Group presently is not yet “in the money” based upon their due diligence conducted to date and no decision had been made to exercise this option as at 31 December 2020; and

  • From the date of purchase through to 31 December 2020 the directors and management of FOS Group were yet to be involved into the day-to-day operations of JSB Lighting and they did not have voting control of the board of JSB Lighting.

4. INVESTMENT IN JSB Lighting

On 23 November 2020 FOS Lighting Pty Ltd acquired a 50% shareholding in Baker & McAuliffe Holdings Pty Ltd trading as JSB Lighting (JSB Lighting) from ASX listed HGL Limited (HGL).

JSB Lighting is a supplier of commercial and architectural lighting products within Australia and New Zealand. The business has been operating over 30 years and employs 27 staff members who are spread across Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Melbourne and Auckland, and focus on applying solution-based lighting on the latest in luminaire design and performance.

On 23 November 2020, the Company issued 3 million fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.20 per shares as consideration for the acquisition of 50% of JSB Lighting to HGL. HGL has also granted FOS Lighting an option to acquire the balance of 50% shares in JSB Lighting for Net tangible Asset value at the point of exercise of the option.

On 1 February 2021, the company exercised the option and acquired the remaining 50% equity in JSB lighting for nil consideration from HGL Limited. At the date of this report, the initial accounting for the business combination that took place as a result of the Company now controlling JSB Lighting is yet to be concluded due to the short passage of time from the date of this acquisition to the date of the release of this report.

FOS Capital Ltd

Independent auditor’s review report to members

Report on the Review of the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying half -year financial report of FOS Capital Ltd (the Company), consisting of FOS Capital Ltd and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half year (the consolidated entity), which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2020, the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and condensed 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.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of FOS Capital Ltd is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • a. giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its performance for the half year ended on that date; and

  • b. complying with Australian Accounting Standard 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Half-Year Financial Report

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

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Half-Year Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half -year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

As the auditor of FOS Capital Ltd, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

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

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
