MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
-
Revenue: $105.7m – up 5.2% on FY20 and in line with guidance
-
EBITDA: slightly ahead of guidance at $12.7m – up 5.0% on FY20
-
Statutory NPAT: $3.2m
-
Net cash: strong position $26.0m up 54.8% on FY20
-
No dividend payable
Revenue growth was driven by an 8.8% increase in the Utilities business to $89.0m from $81.8m in FY20 with new customer wins and growth from existing customers offsetting previous years’ losses.
Veovo revenues were down from $18.7m in FY21 to $16.7m due to continued impact of Covid on the aviation industry, but pleasingly annual recurring revenues (ARR) were up 7.7% as new customers moved into live operation.
Underlying Group EBITDA of $12.7m is up 5.0% on FY20, slightly ahead of the guidance issued earlier this year. Costs were up 5.2% vs FY20 driven by increased investment in personnel, with continued savings in non-personnel costs.
The Group achieved strong net cash generation of $9.2m for the period resulting in $26.0m net cash at 30 September 2021, up from $16.8m at 30 September 2020.
We continue to deliver against the three strategic growth pillars outlined in our Strategy Presentation to the market in June – creating a strong customer base, winning new logos and growing our managed services business.
Over the past 12 months we have won 7 new logos, including 3 new B2B energy retailers, further strengthening our position as a leading provider of solutions to C&I retailers.
The Managed Services revenues remained generally flat from FY20 to FY21. Since prioritising Managed Services as a focus area of our strategy, we now have a healthy pipeline and order book which are setting us up for FY22 and future growth.
Although performing well against our pillars, we continue to experience a drag on revenue growth, from prior period losses and supplier failures in the UK. The number of B2C supplier failures in the UK has accelerated in the last 3 months due to the global energy crisis and Government enforced price cap for the B2C segment – with a total of 9 customer insolvencies occurring since the beginning of FY21 compared to 6 in total from FY17 through FY20.
This week, Bulb, a Gentrack customer, went into a special form of administration for larger supplier failures which has not been tested before. We will continue to support the business as required by the administrator as options for the business are assessed over the coming months.
Our strategic position with our existing customer base continues to strengthen. Customer status continues to improve with 72% of our customers at a ‘green’ high performance status.
We anticipate there may be some further supplier failures in the coming winter months after which our expectation is that the market will stabilise.

AUDITORS REPORT
We have made allowances for a reasonable scenario for these additional potential failures.
In general, our revenue is diversified across airports and utilities, with our energy and water customers active in 6 countries, covering both B2B and B2C.
As a technology first company we continue to accelerate investment in both our Utilities cleantech capabilities and Veovo, in order to deliver innovation and profitability for a sustainable era. More customers are turning to Gentrack to deliver cloud native innovations and understand that Gentrack has the delivery expertise to roll out these innovations across diverse markets and at scale.
The business’ turnaround continues to progress, and despite the headwinds in the UK covered above, the organisation is in a strong state, and we are well positioned for accelerated growth.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are set out throughout the document where they are applicable. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. Certain comparatives have been updated to ensure consistency with current year presentation.
Accounting policies are identified by this symbol above.
CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements.
Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Management bases its judgements and estimates on historical experience and on various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the result of which form the basis of the carrying values for assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and may materially affect financial results or the financial position reported in future periods.
Further details of the nature of these critical judgements and estimates may be found throughout the financial statements as they are applicable and are identified by this symbol.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Gentrack Group Limited is a limited liability company, domiciled and incorporated in New Zealand and registered under the New Zealand Companies Act 1993. The registered office of the Company is 17 Hargreaves Street, St Marys Bay, Auckland 1011, New Zealand.
The financial statements presented are for Gentrack Group Limited and its subsidiaries (Gentrack Group) for the year ended 30 September 2021. Prior year comparatives are for the year ended 30 September 2020.
The financial statements of Gentrack Group for the year ended 30 September 2021 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 25 November 2021.
Gentrack Group’s principal activity is the development, integration, and support of enterprise billing and customer management software solutions for the utility (energy and water) and airport industries.
COVID-19 PANDEMIC
At 30 September 2021, the financial impact of COVID-19 on Gentrack Group overall has not been material. COVID-19 has not adversely impacted Gentrack Group’s Utility business, however the Airport business has been impacted by COVID-19 with project cancellations and delays because of the uncertainty caused by COVID-19. Gentrack Group continues to closely monitor the longer-term financial and economic implications of COVID-19 on its operations.
In preparing these financial statements Gentrack Group has considered the increased level of uncertainty resulting from COVID-19 in applying its accounting estimates and judgements, details of the significant judgements and estimates are provided below:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
==> picture [24 x 29] intentionally omitted <==
This section outlines the legislation and accounting standards which have been followed in the preparation of the financial statements along with explaining how the information has been consolidated and presented.
2.1 KEY LEGISLATION AND ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The financial statements of Gentrack Group have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP). They comply with the New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards as appropriate to profit-oriented entities. The financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Gentrack Group is an FMC entity for the purposes of the Financial Reporting Act 2013 and Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and is listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange (NZX) and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Financial Reporting Act 2013, Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and the Companies Act 1993.
2.2 BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
Subsidiaries are entities over which Gentrack Group has control. Gentrack Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and can affect those returns through its power over the entity. In assessing control, potential voting rights that currently are exercisable are considered. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date that control is transferred to Gentrack Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by Gentrack Group.
Intra-group balances and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are fully eliminated in preparing the financial statements.
FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY
Items included in the financial statements of each of Gentrack Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars (NZD) which is Gentrack Group’s presentation currency. All financial information has been presented rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($000) in the financial statements.
TRANSACTIONS AND BALANCES
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within net finance expense.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION RESERVE (FCTR)
Gentrack Group translates the results of its foreign operations from their functional currencies to the presentation currency using the closing exchange rate at balance date for assets and liabilities and the average monthly exchange rates for income and expenses. The difference arising from the translation of the statement of financial position at the closing rates and the statement of comprehensive income at the average rates is recorded within the foreign currency translation reserve within the statement of changes in equity.
2.3 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to Gentrack Group. Control is the exposure or right to variable returns from involvement with the entity and the ability to affect those returns through power over the entity.
Gentrack Group recognises the fair value of all identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities of the acquired business. Goodwill is measured as the excess cost of the acquisition over the recognised assets and liabilities. When the excess is negative (negative goodwill), the amount is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income.
==> picture [111 x 27] intentionally omitted <==
GENTRACK FINANCIAL STATEMENTS / 18
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
2.3 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (CONTINUED)
Gentrack Group applies the anticipated acquisition method where it has the right and the obligation to purchase any remaining non-controlling interest (so-called put/call arrangements). Under the anticipated acquisition method, the interests of the non-controlling shareholder are derecognised when Gentrack Group’s liability relating to the purchase of its shares is recognised. The recognition of the financial liability implies that the interests subject to the purchase are deemed to have been acquired already. Therefore, the corresponding interests are presented as already owned by
Gentrack Group even though legally they are still non-controlling interests. The initial measurement of the fair value of the financial liability recognised by Gentrack Group forms part of the consideration for the acquisition.
Gentrack Group has not made any acquisitions during the year ended 30 September 2021 or 2020. For details of acquisitions made in prior years refer to the 2018 Annual Report.

3. GROUP PERFORMANCE
==> picture [24 x 29] intentionally omitted <==
This section outlines further details of Gentrack Group’s financial performance by building on the information presented in the statement of comprehensive income.
3.1 OPERATING SEGMENTS
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s Chief Operating Decision Maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. Operating segments are aggregated for disclosure purposes where they have similar products and services, production processes, customers, distribution methods and regulatory environments.
Gentrack Group currently operates in two business segments, utility billing software and airport management software. Consistent with prior years, Gentrack Group’s corporate costs are included in the Utility segment. These segments have been determined based on the reports reviewed by the Board (Chief Operating Decision Maker) to make strategic decisions.
The assets and liabilities of Gentrack Group are reported to and reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker in total and are not allocated by business segment. Therefore, operating segment assets and liabilities are not disclosed.

3.2 OPERATING REVENUE
==> picture [35 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
Gentrack Group recognises revenue from customers when the performance obligation has been accomplished. A performance obligation is accomplished when the customer has received all the benefits promised under the performance obligations and payment is generally due within 30 to 60 days from invoices being raised. The following sections detail the type of revenue recognised within each category.
Revenue recognition of license and project services is recognised based on the stage of completion which requires judgement to be applied. This process uses estimations of time required to complete the project and is based on detailed information on hours worked to date, prior experience, and project scheduling tools. Gentrack Group employs project managers to provide regular information to management on the progress of all projects. All estimates are reviewed by management prior to revenue recognition.
ANNUAL FEES
Annual fees include software support and maintenance charged on software licenses, software subscriptions and managed services. Revenue from annual fees is generally recognised over the period as the benefits are consumed by the customer.
SUPPORT SERVICES
Support services are post implementation value-add professional services related to ongoing upgrades, minor software revisions and extended support. Support services revenue is recognised when the service is complete or on a stage of completion basis.
LICENSES
Revenue from license fees is recognised when the customer can benefit from the licensed software. License fees that are highly interrelated with project services are recognised based on a stage of completion of the project.
PROJECT SERVICES
Revenue from project services is recognised based on the stage of completion of the project. This is typically in accordance with the achievement of contract milestones and/or hours expended and forecast hours to complete the project.
OTHER
Other revenue is primarily revenue from hardware and the recharge of ad-hoc costs that are recharged to customers. Revenue from hardware sales is recognised when the hardware has been delivered to the customer.

3.3 OTHER INCOME
GOVERNMENT GRANTS
==> picture [35 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and Gentrack Group will comply with all attached conditions. When a grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income over the period necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate.
During 2021, Gentrack Group recognised a total of $0.7m (2020: $2.0m) of grants from Callaghan Innovation in New Zealand. This government grant provided a percentage return for eligible Research and Development conducted by Gentrack Group. At balance date, there are no amounts outstanding in relation to the Callaghan Grant. Effective from 1 April 2021 for Gentrack Group the Callaghan Grant has been replaced by the Research and Development Tax Incentive (RDTI) where a tax incentive is provided for eligible Research and Development conducted by Gentrack Group.
The RDTI and the Research and Development Expenditure Credit (RDEC) in the UK are tax incentives and the benefit of these tax incentives are applied to Gentrack Group’s income tax payable when the income tax returns for 30 September 2021 are filed.

This section outlines further details of Gentrack Group’s financial position by building on information presented in the statement of financial position.
5.1. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES
==> picture [35 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
Gentrack Group recognises trade and other receivables initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. An impairment provision for trade receivables consists of the expected credit loss in accordance with NZ IFRS 9 and a specific provision.
A specific provision is established when there is objective evidence that Gentrack Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The carrying amount of an asset is reduced using provision accounts, and the amount of the loss is recognised in the statement of
comprehensive income. When a receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the specific impairment provision account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the statement of comprehensive income.

Goodwill represents the difference between the cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (CGU) and is not amortised but is tested annually for impairment.

During the year due to the further alignment of the Airport 20/20 and Blip Systems CGU, these CGU’s have been combined to form the Veovo CGU. With further alignment, it is no longer possible to meaningfully separate the cashflows of these CGU’s and therefore are now reported as a single CGU.

5.3 IMPAIRMENT TESTING
IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF GOODWILL AND OTHER ASSETS
At each reporting date, Gentrack Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, Gentrack Group makes a formal estimate of the recoverable amount. Where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell or the asset’s value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments and the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Value in use is determined by discounting the future cash flows generated by each CGU. Cash flows were projected based on five-year business plans. The Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is based on CAPM methodology using market specific inputs. The WACC for each CGU is reviewed at least annually. The key assumptions are detailed in the table below.
Gentrack Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment or more often as required, in accordance with the accounting policy stated above. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value in use calculations. Preparing five-year forecasts in a COVID-19 environment has been a challenging task due to the uncertainty of the future. In preparing the five-year forecasts, management has reviewed the assumptions and weighed up the information available at the time to ensure the forecasts are appropriate given the CGU’s position and the prevailing market conditions.
These calculations require the use of assumptions, the details of these assumptions are presented below and for both CGU’s a Terminal Growth Rate of 1.85% has been applied.
| CGU’s a Terminal Growth Rate of 1.85% has been applied. | |

| Utilities 5.1% CAGR 9.6% 4% CAGR Veovo 10.6% CAGR 10.7% 5% CAGR |
9.8% 10.1% |
IMPAIRMENT TESTING RESULTS
The calculations confirmed there was no impairment of goodwill during the year for the Utilities or Veovo CGU’s. Management believes that any reasonable possible change in the key assumptions for either CGU would not cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount.
Changes in key assumptions were considered as sensitivities. These are summarised in the table below.

5.4 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
CAPITALISED DEVELOPMENT
==> picture [35 x 31] intentionally omitted <==
Costs that are directly associated with the development of software are recognised as intangible assets where the following criteria are met:
-
it is technically feasible to complete the software product so that it will be available for use.
-
management intends to complete the software product and use or sell it.
-
there is an ability to use or sell the software product.
-
it can be demonstrated how the software product will generate probable future economic benefits.
-
adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software product are available; and
-
the expenditure attributable to the software product during its development can be reliably measured.
Software development costs that meet the above criteria are capitalised. Other development expenditure that does not meet the above criteria is recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as expenses are not recognised as assets in a subsequent period. Software development costs recognised as assets are amortised over their estimated useful lives.
BRANDS
Brands are considered to have an indefinite useful life and are held at cost and are not amortised but are subject to an annual impairment test consistent with the methodology outlined for goodwill above.
OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Other intangible assets consist of internal use software, acquired source code, trade-marks, and customer relationships. They have finite useful lives and are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

5.5 PROPERTY PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
In the statement of financial position property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Depreciation on assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the difference between their original costs and their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
| • | Furniture & equipment | 7 years |
|---|---|---|
| • | Computer equipment | 3 to 7 years |
| • | Leasehold improvements | Term of lease |
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate at each balance date.
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 carrying amounts and are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

6. CAPITAL STRUCTURE
==> picture [24 x 29] intentionally omitted <==
This section outlines Gentrack Group’s capital structure and details of share-based employee incentives which have an impact on Gentrack Group’s equity.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. Where any Gentrack Group company purchases the Company’s equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration paid is deducted from equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders until the shares are cancelled or transferred outside Gentrack Group.
Ordinary shares are fully paid and have no par value. The holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends as declared from time to time and are entitled to one vote per share at meetings of the Company and rank equally with regard to the Company’s residual assets.
6.1 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The capital structure of Gentrack Group consists of equity raised by the issue of ordinary shares in the parent company.
Gentrack Group manages its capital to ensure that companies in the Group can continue as going concerns. Gentrack Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements .

During 2021 Performance Rights of 274,105 in relation to Long Term Incentive Schemes vested, resulting in the same number of new shares being issued. Also 28,389 shares were issued as part payment of Gentrack Group Directors fees.
6.2 SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
Gentrack Group operates equity settled, share-based payments schemes under which it receives services from employees, as consideration for equity instruments of Gentrack Group. A valuation is completed for each scheme at the grant date to estimate the fair value of the performance rights granted. Management also makes estimates about the number of performance rights that are expected to vest which determines the expense recorded in the statement of comprehensive income.
The fair value of the performance rights is determined at the grant date using the Black Scholes valuation method, the key input into the valuation model is the grant date share price. The fair value of the performance rights is recorded as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income over the vesting period, based on Gentrack Group’s estimate of the number of performance rights that will vest, with a corresponding entry to the share-based payment reserve within equity. During the year ended 30 September 2021, $3.6m has been recognised in the statement of comprehensive income (2020: $0.3m).
During the year ended 30 September 2021, two new equity settled share-based payment schemes were introduced and additional participants were granted performance rights under the existing scheme. The existing scheme has been renamed as the Senior Leadership Long Term Incentive. The two new equity settled share-based payment schemes introduced during the year are the Gentrack Long Term Incentive Scheme and the CEO Long Term Incentive Scheme.
SENIOR LEADERSHIP LONG TERM INCENTIVE SCHEME
During the year the Gentrack Group Board approved the sixth annual grant of performance rights in the Senior Leadership Long Term Incentive Scheme, this scheme was first introduced in 2016 for selected key personnel. The scheme is intended to attract and reward key personnel to focus on long-term performance. The number of performance rights allocated is based on a percentage of salary or other such percentage and are calculated with

6.4 EARNINGS PER SHARE
==> picture [34 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
Gentrack Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares on issue during the year, excluding shares purchased and held as treasury shares.
Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares on issue for the effects of the dilutive impact of potential ordinary shares, which comprise performance share rights granted to employees.
Potential ordinary shares are treated as dilutive when, and only when, their conversion to ordinary shares would decrease EPS or increase the profit per share.

7.2 DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Deferred tax is recognised, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.
==> picture [35 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised, or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except for deferred income tax liabilities where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by Gentrack Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income tax levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different entities where there is an intention to settle the balance on a net basis.

7.2 DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)
Additional income tax expenses that arise from the distribution of cash dividends are recognised while the liability to pay the related dividend is recognised. Gentrack Group does not distribute non-cash assets as dividends to its shareholders.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related benefits will be realised.
==> picture [35 x 38] intentionally omitted <==
A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which temporary differences can be utilised. Management applies judgement when reviewing current business plans and forecasts to ascertain the likelihood of future taxable profits.
The movement in temporary differences has been recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Deferred tax has been recognised at a rate at which they are expected to be realised: 28% for New Zealand entities, 30% for Australian entities, 19% for UK entities, 22% for Denmark entities and 35% for Malta entities.

8. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
==> picture [24 x 28] intentionally omitted <==
Gentrack Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risks which include foreign currency risk, commodity price risk and interest risk. This section details of each of these financial risks and how they are managed by Gentrack Group.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of Gentrack Group’s risk management framework. Gentrack Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse (amongst other risks) the financial risks faced by Gentrack Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and Gentrack Group’s activities.
8.1 CREDIT RISK
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to Gentrack Group if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and it arises principally from Gentrack Group’s trade receivables from customers in the normal course of business.
Gentrack Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The credit worthiness of a customer or counter party is determined by several qualitative and quantitative factors. Qualitative factors include external credit ratings (where available), payment history and strategic importance of customer or counter party. Quantitative factors include transaction size, net assets of customer or counter party, and ratio analysis on liquidity, cash flow and profitability.
In relation to trade receivables, it is Gentrack Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on terms are subject to credit verification on an ongoing basis with the intention of minimising bad debts. The nature of Gentrack Group’s trade receivables is represented by regular turnover of product and billing of customers based on the contractual payment terms.
Gentrack Group has an impairment provision that represents its estimate of future incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables. The impairment provision consists of the expected credit loss provision in accordance with NZ IFRS 9 and a specific doubtful debt provision used where there is objective evidence that indicates a trade receivable is impaired.
The carrying amount of Gentrack Group’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure as summarised in the table below:

(38) (918) (178) (600) (2,116) |
| 18,422 (3,279) 15,084 |
(3,850) |
Gentrack Group’s trade receivables are not exposed to any significant credit exposure to any single counterparty or group of counterparties having similar characteristics. Trade receivables consist of several customers in various geographical areas. Based on historic information about customer default rates, management considers the credit quality of trade receivables that are not past due or impaired to be good.
As at 30 September 2021 there are no significant concentrations of credit risk for financial assets designated as at amortised cost or at fair value. The carrying amount reflects Gentrack Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk for these financial assets.
Judgement has been applied to the recovery of all trade receivables, with management confirming that all carrying amounts are deemed to be recoverable and not impaired.
The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is considered negligible since the counterparties are highly reputable financial intuitions with high quality external credit ratings.

8.2 MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates, will affect Gentrack Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return on risk.
FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK
Gentrack Group is exposed to currency risk on transactions that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of Gentrack Group (NZD), primarily the following currencies Australian Dollar (AUD), Pound Sterling (GBP), EURO (EUR), US Dollar (USD), and Danish Kroner (DKK).

8.3 LIQUIDITY RISK
Liquidity risk is the risk that Gentrack Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as and when they become due and payable. Gentrack Group’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they become due and payable, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to Gentrack Group’s reputation.
Gentrack Group has sufficient cash to meet its requirements in the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
8.5 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
==> picture [35 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
Gentrack Group’s financial assets are measured at amortised cost. Gentrack Group’s financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial asset to collect contractual cash flows and the financial asset gives rise to contractual cash flows on specified dates that are payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding.
Gentrack Group’s financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost except for contingent consideration which is required to be measured at fair value through profit and loss.
Gentrack Group’s financial assets and liabilities by category are summarised as follows:
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash at bank and on hand and the carrying amount is equivalent to fair value.
TRADE RECEIVABLES
These assets are short term in nature and are reviewed for impairment; the carrying value approximates their fair value.
TRADE PAYABLES
These liabilities are mainly short term in nature with the carrying value approximating the fair value.
LOANS AND BORROWINGS
Loans and borrowings have a floating interest rate. Fair value is estimated using the discounted cash flow model based on current market interest rate for a similar product; the carrying value approximates their fair value.
FAIR VALUES
Gentrack Group’s financial instruments that are measured after initial recognition at fair values are grouped into levels based on the degree to which their fair value is observable:
-
Level 1 – fair value measurements derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
-
Level 2 – fair value measurements derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
-
Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability which are not based on observable market data.
There have been no transfers between levels or changes in the valuation methods used to determine the fair value of Gentrack Group’s financial instruments during the period. As at 30 September 2021 Gentrack Group has no of level 3 financial instruments (2020: $Nil).

OTHER INFORMATION

9.1 LEASE ASSETS AND LEASE LIABILITIES
RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT OF GENTRACK GROUP LEASING ACTIVITIES
Gentrack Group predominantly leases property for fixed periods of 1-12 years and may have extension options. These extension options are usually at the discretion of Gentrack Group and are included in the measurement of the lease asset if management intends to exercise the extension. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a variety of terms and conditions. However, these lease agreements do not impose any covenants.
Leases are recognised as a right of use asset (lease asset) and a corresponding lease liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period. The lease asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:
-
fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
-
variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate
-
amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees
-
the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
-
payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option.
The lease payments are discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with similar terms and conditions.
Lease assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
-
the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
-
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
-
• any initial direct costs, and
-
restoration costs.
Key movements related to the lease assets and lease liabilities are presented below:
