CHAIRPERSON AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER JOINT REPORT

We are pleased to present the Annual Report for Hansen Technologies Limited for financial year ended 30 June 2020 (FY20). It is with great pleasure that we share the Hansen results with our shareholders for FY20. As we reflect on the 2020 financial year, we would like to thank our employees who have remained committed and dedicated to making Hansen the best company it can be for its customers and its shareholders. The Hansen Team has once again risen to the challenges and delivered a great result.

When assessing the Company’s success, we look at several factors. These include:

The Hansen Mission

To further grow our best in class core business through aggregating mature, entrenched and predicable businesses in the Energy and Communications sectors.

Our Strategy

• To continue to diversify and grow our business over the long-term through aggregation accelerating new market entry be it geographic, vertical or by further customer diversification;

• To continue to leverage our global experience.

• To continue to evolve our product offering ensuring our customers’ technical journey is on point and cost-effective.

Our acquisition of the Sigma Group has delivered strongly into our strategy and provides the Company with further product innovation. The integration of the Sigma Group has been completed during the period and the Company’s global reach has been further enhanced. We also continue to expect further incremental margin improvement over the next few years from the continued improvement in companies recently aggregated into the

Hansen family, including Sigma. While revenues have grown, and margins have improved since initial integration, there remains significant opportunity to generate further increased revenue and profitability from these businesses.

Hansen has had great success this year welcoming 20 new customers to the Hansen family. These customers have committed more than $70m of revenue over their initial contract term. These wins have been across both the Energy and Communications verticals. These new customers add to the core that is Hansen.

CREATE. DELIVER. ENGAGE. DIFFERENTLY.

Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

04

Hansen’s ability to win these new customers in today’s competitive environment underscores the strength of our product offering and the relevance of this offering in the marketplace. Revenue growth across the year was also driven by our existing customer base, with many successful upgrades and projects completed throughout the year.

The second half of the year has been delivered against the backdrop of a global pandemic. We are pleased to report that the Hansen business transitioned quickly to a remote working environment where our customers continued to receive the customary high levels of support Hansen is renowned for. Delivering remotely is something we have experience in and the adoption of these methodologies across the Company has resulted in no deterioration in productivity. In fact, we have been able to reduce our cost base and we will take these learnings into our future to further improve our margin.

At Hansen we are fortunate that in servicing the Energy and Communications sectors, our business is aligned with essential services across the world. This generates a stable business environment in these uncertain times.

Energy and Communications are two industries that are rapidly transforming from delivering ‘just essentials’ to delivering energy and connected experiences. These things are the foundation of our next society. We align ourselves with our clients and provide proven products and the right customer mindset.

These industry segments continue to expand their offering to their customers.

Energy customers are looking to consume energy responsibly while reducing their environmental footprint, creating complexity as they look to avail themselves of green energy options and other related services.

The offerings available through our communications providers continue to expand with the introduction of new technology, most recently 5G, supported by a customer base demanding the ability to consume information in a mobile environment.

Hansen is well placed to continue to support its customers and provide a positive customer experience as they service end-user needs.

Financials

The Group revenues increased by 30.3% up to $301.4m with underlying EBITDA for the year up 39.8% to $78.0m. The integration of the Sigma business together with a rationalisation of the Company’s cost base driven by the global pandemic

has generated an improved underlying EBITDA margin for the full year of 25.9%.

This strong profit performance is further underpinned by the Company’s ability to generate cash flow from operations, which was $69.6m and free cash flow of $44.2m after adjusting for the repayment of lease liabilities. Hansen’s

ability to generate cash in the current environment further underscores the strength it has enabling it to invest in its products and fund acquisitions.

This strong financial outcome has enabled us to declare dividends amounting to 10 cents per share this year returning 46% of NPATA to shareholders.

The Group’s financial performance this year has been outstanding across all financial metrics.

06 Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

Every day we set out to inspire and challenge today’s energy and communications providers to become tomorrow’s next digitally driven experience companies.

Operational Highlights

1. There were significant new logo wins across all regions with the initial contract value totalling $70m.

2. We upgraded several clients in our US Municipality marketplace, cemented our position as the dominant provider of Customer Information Systems (CIS) products in the Nordics and expanded the reach of the Sigma products into new marketplaces in Asia Pacific and EMEA.

3. We have successfully integrated the Sigma Group into the Hansen operations enhancing Sigma’s operating margins in the second half of the financial year.

4. A Hansen ‘Power the Next’ rebranding exercise was completed and rolled out to all jurisdictions. This rebranding represents our value to our customers in helping them reshape how Energy and Communications services are experienced. It represents the ‘next new’ experiences on the horizon that our customers need to deliver and the next experiences that end-customers want to have and consume.

5. Our network of Industry experts is being further supported with over 350 highly skilled resources deployed within our development centres found in Vietnam and India. This investment commenced in 2018 and is now delivering improved margins across the Hansen Group.

6. We have responded immediately to the global pandemic providing a safe and productive workplace for our people, allowing us to continue to serve our customers effectively today and into the future.

Our Future

We will continue our successful 20-year history of aggregating mature, entrenched, and predictable businesses. Supported by the highly cash generative nature of our business, we will continue to ‘Hansenise’ these businesses to drive growth and enhance profitability.

What becomes imperative for our customers is the ability to transition from basic providers of services to ones that can capitalise on the growing ecosystems and variety of the next experiences that surround the core connectivity and energy services already provided.

At the core of our proposition is our ability to evolve together with our customers, providing business solutions through our software products that deliver a competitive advantage.

Coupled with the Company’s drive to aggregate strategic business we see a future of sustainable revenue growth and increased shareholder value.

Hansen’s ability to continue its investment in its products, provide thought leadership through its global experiences and leverage its extensive industry knowledge puts it at the forefront of the industry.

We are confident that our business strategy combined with the strength of our people will ensure the continued success of Hansen, its customers, and its shareholders.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

The Directors present their report together with the Financial Report of the consolidated entity (the Group), being Hansen Technologies Limited (the Company) and the entities it controlled for the financial year ended 30 June 2020, and Auditor’s Report thereon. This Financial Report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.

Principal activities

The principal activities of the Group during the financial year were the development, integration and support of billing systems software for the Energy and Communications sectors. Other activities undertaken by the Group include IT outsourcing services and the development of other specific software applications.

Operating and financial review

Review of operations

The Group’s operating performance for the fiscal year compared to last year is as follows:

	2020	2019	Variance
	A$ Million	A$ Million	%
Operating revenue	301.4	231.3	30.3%
Underlying EBITDA excluding AASB 16 impact1, 2	78.0	55.8	39.8%
Underlying NPAT2	29.5	24.0	22.9%
Underlying NPATA1,2	47.4	33.7	40.7%
Basic Earnings Per Share (EPS)(cents)	13.0	10.9	19.3%
Basic EPS based on underlyingNPATA(EPSa)(cents)1	23.9	17.1	39.8%

1. The Directors believe the information additional to IFRS measures included in the report is relevant and useful in measuring the financial performance of the Group. These include: EBITDA, NPATA and EPSa. These measures have been defined in the Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer’s Joint Report on page 6.

2. On 1 July 2019, the Group adopted AASB 16 for the first time, resulting in an increase in EBITDA in the current financial year. Further details on the adoption of AASB 16 are described in Note 13 to Financial Report on pages 63 to 67.

In 2020 the business continued to deliver strong results after the record 2019 year, and EBITDA exceeded the profit guidance provided in August 2019. Further details on the Group’s results are outlined in the Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer Joint Report on page 4.

The Group’s revenue for the financial year was higher than the previous corresponding period as a result of the acquisition of Sigma Systems business (Sigma) on 1 June 2019. This acquisition has resulted in the rebalancing of the Group’s market portfolio which, post the acquisition of Enoro in FY18, was initially weighted towards the energy sector. With Sigma’s revenues concentrated in the communications sector, the Group’s revenue portfolio is now rebalanced to ensure greater diversification across multiple industries, regions and clients.

Continued investment in Sales and Marketing has increased Hansen’s profile in target markets and further reinforced the Group’s long-term customer relationships.

Investment in our global infrastructure and products has continued throughout the period ensuring our business remains scalable and appropriately poised for growth.

The Group has generated operating cash flows of $69.6 million, which has been used to retire net external debt of $27.8 million, fund our ongoing product development program, and pay dividends of $10.1 million (net of dividend reinvestments). With the Group’s cash generation capabilities, Hansen is well placed to continue to acquire mature, predictable businesses in the Energy and Communications sectors, expanding its global reach.

10 Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

Billing segment

The Billing segment represents a major part of the Group’s business operations, delivering $291.6 million of revenue in 2020 (2019: $218.4 million), which translates into a 33.5% increase. Segment profit before tax was $33.2 million in 2020 (2019: $33.1 million), representing a 0.3% increase.

Other activities

Segment revenues from other activities was $9.7 million in 2020 (2019: $12.9 million), representing a 24.8% decrease for the year. This 24.8% decrease in revenues resulted from an expected reduction in business activity associated with the Customer Care call centre. Segment profit before tax was $0.7 million for 2020 (2019: $1.6 million), representing a 56.3% decrease for the year.

Significant changes in the state of affairs

There have been no significant changes in the Group’s state of affairs during the financial year.

Events after balance sheet date

No matters have arisen between the end of the financial year and the date of this report that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Group in future years. Refer to Note 30 in the Financial Report for further information.

Opportunities and business risks

The business remains committed to increasing shareholder value and the recent acquisition of Sigma is aligned with this objective. We believe the opportunities to grow the Group’s organic revenues and win new clients is enhanced with this acquisition.

The Energy and Communications markets are undergoing further change and are increasing in complexity. Regulation and other changes such as solar provisioning, smart metering, energy market settlements and the introduction of next-generation 5G network technology create greater demand for highly complex and sophisticated billing systems and enhanced functionality that can keep abreast of market changes.

Organic and strategic growth opportunities within the business for above-trend performance include, but are not limited to:

• a higher than expected demand for services from customers from changing business needs;

• significant new customers due to increased marketing efforts and product innovation;

• greater take-up of product upgrades from existing customers; and

• a higher than expected conversion rate associated with targeted aggregation opportunities.

To ensure our goals are achieved, the Group continues to refer to the robust risk framework that is continually monitored, managed and responded to. As the Group continues to grow, we continue to identify, control, plan, and co-ordinate effective responses to a wide array of risks which include, but are not limited to the following:

• Security or data incidents: As a technology-focused business, managing security and taking care of customer data is essential. To manage the risk of damaging security incidents, we have appropriate data management, security and compliance policies, procedures and practices in place.

• Loss of customers: While loss of customers due to market competition is a risk to the business, we manage this risk by ensuring we are focused on meeting our customers’ expectations for system performance and service delivery, and by having a globally diverse customer base across various industry sectors.

• Decline in international market conditions: As a business with international operations, we have exposure to currency fluctuations, which we monitor and manage.

• Investment opportunities: The Group has an active M&A program. Potential investments may carry execution and integration risks, and this is managed via maintaining a highly experienced M&A team with a proven track record of business integration and value generation.

We manage risks by monitoring our market-place and global conditions.

Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

DIRECTORS’ REPORT CONTINUED

Outlook and likely developments for FY21

Hansen will continue to pursue its operating strategy of providing billing and related data management solutions to our targeted segments while assessing appropriate aggregation opportunities to enhance shareholder value.

Items of specific focus for 2021 include:

• investigate and develop cross-selling opportunities into the energy market and leverage our investment in Sigma’s intellectual property; and

• leverage the Group’s network of low-cost development centres to improve both customer delivery and Hansen margins.

Environmental regulations and climate change

The Group’s operations are not subject to any significant environmental Commonwealth or state regulations or laws. The Group is aware of the general risks associated with climate change and continues to be committed to operating sustainably. However, the Group’s operations are not significantly impacted by any environmental factors.

Corporate governance statement

Hansen and the Board are committed to achieving and demonstrating the highest standards of corporate governance. Hansen has reviewed its corporate governance practices against the Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (3rd edition) published by the ASX Corporate Governance Council.

A description of the Group’s current corporate governance practices is set out in the Group’s corporate governance statement, which can be viewed at https://hansencx.com/about/investor-relations.

Dividends paid, recommended and declared

A final dividend of 7 cents per share has been declared, partially franked to 0.70 cents per share, comprising a regular dividend of 5 cents per share, together with a special dividend of 2 cents per share. The final dividend was announced to the market on 28 August 2020 with payment to be made on 25 September 2020.

The amount declared has not been recognised as a liability in the accounts of the Company as at 30 June 2020.

Dividends paid during the year, excluding dividends reinvested as part of the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment Program (DRP):

• 3 cents per share partially franked to 1.59 cents interim dividend paid 26 March 2020, totalling $5,211,064; and

• 3 cents per share partially franked to 2.60 cents final dividend paid 26 September 2019, totalling $4,903,630.

This is consistent with the Board’s capital management policy that balances growth through acquisitions against the payment of dividends.

4. Performance rights in relation to the EPSa CAGR measure exceeded the required performance measurement hurdles and will vest on an accelerated basis paying 150% of the entitlement on 31 August 2020. Performance rights associated with the TSR hurdle did not meet the market conditions.

If the Company makes a bonus issue of securities to ordinary shareholders, each unexercised option or performance right will, on exercise, entitle its holder to receive the bonus securities as if the option or performance right had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.

Option and performance rights holders do not have any right, by virtue of the option or performance right held, to participate in any share issue of the Company. Options and performance rights will not give any right to participate in dividends or any voting rights until shares are issued upon the exercise of vested options or performance rights.

REMUNERATION REPORT

Dear Shareholder,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present the Remuneration Report of the Group, consisting of Hansen Technologies Limited (the Company) and its controlled entities for the 2020 financial year.

The 2020 financial year is a year which can be characterised as unique. With the incidence of COVID-19, unprecedented challenges have faced businesses across the globe. Our Company, as a global service provider, has had to respond to these challenges and the complexities have been substantial. However, it is extremely pleasing that the Company has once again had a very successful year, despite this complexity.

With the onset of COVID-19 in the second half of the year, all members of our Global Team have been working remotely to deliver to our customers and shareholders. It is a great credit to the team that this delivery has ensured the Company met its profit performance targets. Based on the Group’s performance, all of our target Short-Term Incentive (STI) cash-component payments were awarded to our KMP against financial and non-financial KPIs set for the year. In line with the recommendations adopted by the Board last year, 25% of the STIs awarded this year will be paid as deferred equity, in the form of rights, with a vesting period of two years.

With the end of financial year 2020, the LTI Program implemented on 1st of July 2017 completed its measurement period of three years. I am pleased to report that with the exceptional EPS growth achieved over the measurement period, this measure has qualified for acceleration and will be paid out at a 150% of the entitlement. Unfortunately, the Ranked TSR measurement criteria did not meet the required standard and will not be paid (refer to Performance outcomes against FY18 on page 26).

The Board is also conscious that with the world in the grip of a global pandemic, the structure of Executive Remuneration for the coming year at least must focus on finding a balance between cost control and structuring remuneration to ensure we retain the strong Executive Team and create an environment where we can attract the appropriate talent. A greater emphasis on the short term is considered important by the Board to ensure the business manages the immediate impact of the pandemic, whilst being mindful of the longer term to ensure the business is optimally placed for the recovery ahead. To that end, the Board has made the following adjustments to the Remuneration Framework for FY21:

• Both Executive Remuneration and Board Fees have been frozen for a period of six months from 1 July 2020, at which time a further assessment will be made.

• The Board has suspended the LTI Program for this year and has enhanced the STI Program for the coming year to reward the Executive Team based on the short-term financial performance of the business and key non-financial criteria set by the Chief Executive. Under the current STI framework, 25% of awarded STIs are paid in the form of a deferred equity component. This component will be increased for the coming year to equate to the added value of the LTI, had the LTI been retained. Details of the plan structure is found on pages 31 to 32 of this report.

The Board remains committed to the ongoing review and improvement of the Group’s Remuneration Framework to ensure it achieves its objectives of incentivising and rewarding performance that optimises business and shareholder value and ensuring the Company is well placed to attract, retain and motivate a talented Executive Team.

Yours sincerely,

REMUNERATION REPORT CONTINUED

2. Our Remuneration Framework

People are at the heart of the Group’s success, enabling us to deliver on our vision and long-term goals. Our Remuneration Framework focuses on providing competitive fixed pay and variable pay that rewards achievement of the Group’s annual objectives and long-term growth in shareholder value.

Remuneration outcomes are aligned with both individual and Group performance, ensuring that employees are rewarded for overall Group achievement as well as their individual contribution to the Group’s success. This aligns remuneration to both individual performance and value creation for shareholders.

(a) Remuneration governance

The Board annually reviews the Group’s remuneration principles, practices, strategy and approach to ensure they support the Group’s long-term business strategy and are appropriate for a listed company of our size and nature.

The Board has delegated to the Remuneration Committee the responsibility for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding compensation arrangements for the Directors, Executive KMP and the balance of the CEO’s direct reports. As at 30 June 2020, the Remuneration Committee was made up of four Non-Executive Directors: David Howell (Chair of the Remuneration Committee), Jennifer Douglas, Bruce Adams, and Don Rankin, the majority of whom are independent.

The CEO and other Directors attend meetings as required at the invitation of the Committee Chair.

The Remuneration Committee assesses the appropriateness of both the nature and amount of the remuneration of the Executive and Non-Executive KMP on an annual basis by reference to market conditions and current remuneration practices, with the overall objective of ensuring maximum Company performance and shareholder benefit including from the retention of a quality Board and Executive Team. The Committee also engages professional support as required to ensure remuneration practices remain in step with the market as well as the size and nature of the business.

(ii) Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration review process

Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration is governed by resolutions passed at a General Meeting of the Shareholders. During the most recent AGM held on 21 November 2019, shareholders approved an increase to the Non-Executive Directors’ maximum remuneration payable from $520,000 to $630,000. No increase in fees is sought for this financial year.

Non-Executive Directors are excluded from participation in the Company’s equity incentive plans.

(iii) Independent advice

To support the review of the 2020 Remuneration Framework, the Remuneration Committee has adopted the independent information, observations, and advice from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) in relation to remuneration strategy, structure and market practice. Potential conflicts of interest were considered by the Committee, and both the Committee and the Board are satisfied that the advice provided by PwC was free from undue influence. Any advice provided by PwC was used as a guide only and was not a substitute for detailed consideration of all the relevant issues by the Committee. No remuneration recommendations, as defined by the Corporations Act 2001 , were provided during the year.

TFR typically includes base salary and superannuation contributions and may include, at the discretion of the Board, other benefits such as a motor vehicle (aggregated with associated fringe benefits tax to represent the total employment cost to the Group). TFR is determined with reference to available market data, the scope of an individual’s role and the qualifications and experience of the individual, as well as geographic location. TFR is reviewed annually to account for market movements and individual performance outcomes. See page 32 for a summary of Executive KMP contracts.

Objective

How is it paid?

How much can executives earn?

To incentivise and align the rewards attainable by Executive KMP with the achievement of specific annual objectives of the Group and the creation of shareholder value.

For the CEO, all incentives will be paid in cash. For all other KMP, 75% of the incentives will be paid through annual cash entitlement on achievement of specific annual financial and non-financial KPIs and 25% will be awarded as equity, subject to a two-year deferral period which recipients must remain employed with the Company.

Target STI benefit is set at 40% of TFR for the CEO and 35% of TFR for other Executive KMP. These are subject to the following minimum and target performance thresholds:

How is performance measured?

Performance measures (KPIs) selected reflect financial, strategic and operational objectives relevant to the level and function of the role that are central to achievement of the business plan and strategy and building shareholder value. Financial measures selected are measures against which management and the Board assess the short-term financial performance of the Group. Strategic and operational objectives are assigned to each individual to drive specific outcomes considered to be of strategic importance to the Group within that individual’s level of responsibility. These objectives are determined by the CEO and the Board in accordance with the process set out on page 18.

The weightings for each performance measure that comprise the total STI opportunity are set out below:

REMUNERATION REPORT CONTINUED

How is performance measured?

Vesting of the LTI awards are subject to the following criteria:

1. Three years of continuous employment with the Group from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2022.

2. Achievement of the thresholds over the same three-year period as set out below:

Relative Total Shareholder Return (rTSR)

The percentage change in a company’s share price, plus the effect of any dividends paid, over the measurement period, relative on a ranked percentile basis to a comparative group (S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries Industrials Index). Relative TSR is a measure widely understood and accepted by shareholders, as it directly measures shareholder value creation.

50% 50%

Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPSa)

Based on the basic EPS compound average growth rate (CAGR) over the measurement period, adjusted to exclude non-cash tax-effected amortisation of acquired intangibles. EPSa growth is selected as it is considered a relevant indicator linking financial performance with shareholder value. The Board may also determine to ‘normalise’ EPSa to exclude one-off amounts and therefore derive an underlying EPSa for the basis of the calculation.

The proportion of rights that may vest based on relative TSR performance is determined based on the following vesting schedule:

on the following vesting schedule:
Relative TSR Performance	Percentage of Performance Rights That Will Vest
< 50thpercentile	None
Between 50th to 75thpercentile	100% to 150% on a linear basis
> 75thpercentile	150%

The proportion of rights that may vest based on EPSa CAGR is determined based on the following vesting schedule:

EPSa CAGR	Percentage ofperformance rights that will vest
< 6%	None
Between 6% to 10%	100% to 150% on apro-rata basis
> 10%	150%

Performance rights will be forfeited if performance conditions are not met. However, the Board has discretion to increase or reduce the amount awarded if the Board considers the outcome to be misaligned given the circumstances that prevailed over the relevant measurement period and the experience of shareholders.

Measurement period Fully vested Yet to vest Failed to vest

150% of EPSa-linked rights will vest and the rTSR-linked rights did not satisfy market conditions.

1. Applies to all KMP, except for the CEO.

For the Group’s legacy LTI plans where options will be awarded, once an option has vested, if the employee wishes to convert the options to shares, the employee must pay in cash to the Company the exercise price multiplied by the number of options received, e.g. for 100,000 options with an exercise price of $3.00 per share, the employee will be required to pay $300,000 to convert the options to shares.

(i) Performance against LTI plan measures (2015 LTI plans)

All KMP eligible for the legacy LTI plans remained with the Company during the measurement period and continue to be in office at the end of FY20.

The Board exercised its discretion to extend the expiry of the exercise of options granted in the (FY16) 2015 LTI plans from 2 July 2020 to 2 April 2021 to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the financial markets.

REMUNERATION REPORT CONTINUED

Performance outcomes against FY17 (2016) LTI plan measures

Options under the FY17 (2016) LTI plan did not meet the required performance measurement hurdles for the options to vest and/or be exercisable.

The below table sets out the value of options under legacy LTI plans that were exercised during FY20 and FY19:

	FY20	FY19
	Value exercised*	Value exercised*

1. Niv Fernando resigned on 31 July 2020.

2. Represents the intrinsic value of options that were exercised during the financial years 2020 and 2019, which is the net dollar value of shares realised from the exercise of profitable options. Intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price and the underlying share price at the date of exercise. For example, an option with an exercise price of $2.00 exercised when the underlying share price is $5.00 has an intrinsic value of $3.00.

If the Company makes a bonus issue of securities to ordinary shareholders, each unexercised option will, on exercise, entitle its holder to receive the bonus securities as if the option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.

Performance outcomes against FY18 (2017) LTI plan measures

Performance rights under the FY18 (2017) LTI plan exceeded the required performance measurement hurdles in relation to the EPSa CAGR measure and will vest on an accelerated basis paying 150% of the entitlement on 31 August 2020. Performance rights associated with the TSR hurdle did not satisfy market conditions.

Performance rights granted in FY19 (2018 plan) and FY20 (2019 plan) have performance conditions attached that will be measured over three years. Assessment and vesting (where conditions are satisfied) will happen after the completion of FY21 for the 2018 plan and FY22 for the 2019 plan. See section 4(c) for a summary of performance rights granted during FY20.

1. Target and actual remuneration mix is calculated based on the combination of each CEO and KMP’s Total Fixed Remuneration for FY20, total value of STIs awarded in relation to actual performance outcomes for FY20, and the value of LTIs granted in FY20 under the terms of the FY20 LTI plan. The proportional mix of remuneration for KMP is based on an average amount. The difference between the target and actual remuneration mix relates to the value of equitybased incentives, of which the target was based on the share price, while the actual was based on the fair value of the performance rights at grant date using a conventional Black Scholes option pricing model (BSOPM) for the STI rights and using a Monte Carlo simulation option pricing model and BSOPM for the LTI rights.

• The Board has resolved to issue 119,969 rights to Andrew Hansen, the Chief Executive Officer, as part of the 2019 LTI plan issued in FY20. The issue of these rights was approved by shareholders at the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 21 November 2019. Any differences in the fair value of the performance rights between the original grant date by the Board and the date of shareholder approval is not material to remuneration awarded.

• No performance rights were vested or forfeited during the year. Rights do not expire as shares are issued to KMP upon vesting.

• The fair value of the rights at grant date has been determined by an independent external valuation expert in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. The fair value of the STI rights was based fully on Black Scholes option pricing model (BSOPM) while the fair value of the LTI rights was based on Monte Carlo simulation option pricing model for the TSR component and BSOPM for the EPSa component. Note 17 to the Group’s financial statements outlines the valuation methodology and key inputs and assumptions to the valuation in greater detail.

• STI performance rights represent the 25% of the total short-term incentives awarded to the KMP on achievement of specific annual financial and non-financial KPIs. This applies to all KMP except for the CEO.

• Niv Fernando resigned on 31 July 2020.

The terms and conditions of each grant of rights affecting the remuneration in the current or future reporting period are as follows.

How is performance measured?

Performance measures (KPIs) selected reflect financial, strategic and operational objectives relevant to the level and function of the role that are central to achievement of delivering the best possible outcome over the next 12 months given the current economic environment. Financial measures selected are measures against which management and the Board assess the short-term financial performance of the Group. Strategic and operational objectives are assigned to each individual to drive specific outcomes considered to be of strategic importance to the Group within that individual’s level of responsibility. These objectives are determined by the CEO and the Board in accordance with the process set out on page 18.

The weightings for each performance measure that comprise the total STI opportunity are set out below:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2020

Section A: Basis of Preparation

This section describes the basis in which the Group’s financial statements are prepared. Specific accounting policies are described in the note to which they relate. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

1. Basis of preparation

(a) Basis of preparation of the Financial Report

This Financial Report is a general purpose Financial Report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Interpretations and other applicable authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 .

The Financial Report covers the Group, being Hansen Technologies Limited (the Company) and its controlled entities as a consolidated entity. The Company is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The address of the Company’s registered office and principal place of business is 2 Frederick St, Doncaster Victoria 3108 Australia. The Company is a for-profit entity for the purposes of preparing the Group’s financial statements.

This Financial Report was authorised for issue by the Directors on 28 August 2020.

The Group’s consolidated financial statements have been presented in a streamlined manner to simplify the information disclosed and to make it more relevant for users. Similar notes have been grouped into sections with relevant accounting policies and judgements and estimate disclosures incorporated within the notes to which they relate.

Compliance with IFRS

The Group’s consolidated financial statements also comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Historical cost convention

The Financial Report has been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by revaluations to fair value for certain classes of assets and liabilities as described in the accounting policies.

Significant accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the Financial Report requires the use of certain estimates and judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies. The Group makes certain estimates and assumptions concerning the future which, by definition, will seldom represent actual results. Estimates and assumptions based on future events have a significant inherent risk and where future events are not as anticipated, there could be a material impact on the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities discussed in each of the affected notes.

Those estimates and judgements significant to the Financial Report are disclosed in the following notes:

Significant accountingestimate andjudgement	Note	Page Reference

Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020 41

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUED 30 JUNE 2020

1. Basis of preparation continued

(b) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are those of the consolidated Group, comprising the financial statements of the parent Company, and of all entities which the parent controls. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed, 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.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies, which may exist.

All inter-company balances and transactions, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date that control is established.

(c) Comparatives

Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year disclosures.

(d) Rounding amounts

The parent Company and the consolidated Group have applied the relief available under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/ Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 and, accordingly the amounts in the consolidated financial statements and in the Directors’ Report have been rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases to the nearest dollar.

(e) Going concern

The Financial Report has been prepared on a going concern basis.

42 Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

Section B: Performance

This section explains the operating results of the Group for the year and provides insights into the Group’s results, including results by operating segment, separately disclosed items during the year that affected the Group’s results, components of income and expenses, income tax and Earnings Per Share.

2. Segment information

(a) Description of segments

Management has determined the Group’s operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the CEO (the Chief Operating Decision Maker).

The operating segments are identified based on the types of services provided to the Group’s customers and the type of customer the services are provided to. Discrete financial information about each of these operating businesses is reported to the executive management team on at least a monthly basis.

Where operating segments meet the aggregation criteria, these are aggregated into reported segments. Operating segments are aggregated based on similar products and services provided to the same type of customers using the same distribution method.

Segment profits, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis and are eliminated on consolidation. There are no significant transactions between segments.

The Group has identified only one reportable segment as described in the table below. No operating segments have been aggregated to form the below reportable operating segment. The ‘other’ category includes business units that do not qualify as an operating segment, as well as the operating segments which do not meet the disclosure requirements of a reportable segment, including IT Outsourcing and Customer Care services.

Reportable Segment	Description of Segment
Billing	Sale of billingapplications and theprovision of consultingservices related to billingsystems.

During the financial year ended 30 June 2020, Management has determined that certain costs, borrowings and their related finance costs are directly attributable to the Billing segment. In addition, retrospective adjustments affecting certain asset and liability accounts were also recognised in the accounting for the business combination (Note 25). Prior year segment information has been restated to reflect these.

(a) AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

(i) Adoption of AASB 15

In the previous financial year, the Group adopted AASB 15 using the modified retrospective method of adoption, where the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard is recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on 1 July 2018. The total impact to retained earnings at transition date was $1,984,000.

(ii) Performance obligations

The transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognised. They include amounts recognised as unearned revenue and amounts that are contracted but not yet billed or performed.

The transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as at 30 June 2020 is $122,710,000 (2019: $121,449,000). This amount mostly comprises obligations in our long-term contracts to provide software or ‘software-as-a-service’ (SaaS) support and maintenance, open long-term professional services contracts as well as licences contracted but not yet earned as the licence has not yet been deployed. Most of this amount is expected to be recognised as revenue beyond the next 12 months following the respective balance sheet date. This estimation is judgemental, as it needs to consider estimates of possible future contract modifications. The amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations, and changes in this amount over time, are impacted by, among others, currency fluctuations and the remaining contract period of our billing solution agreements (which, in some cases, are contracted until five years after balance sheet date).

Accrued revenue mainly relates to software licences deployed on contract inception but have yet to be billed to the customer.

Revenue recognised in the current reporting period that was included in unearned revenue at the beginning of the reporting period was $25,681,000 (2019: $22,251,000), representing support and maintenance performed during the period.

(b) Government grants

Included in ‘Other income’ during the financial year is $461,000 (2019: $nil) related to government subsidies received in Canada, and $514,000 (2019: $309,000) government grants to compensate for eligible employee expenditure related to research activities performed in Norway and in the United Kingdom. There were no unfulfilled conditions or contingencies attached to these grants.

Significant accounting policies

Revenue

The Group derives revenues from customer contracts associated with the provision of billing solutions. A typical contract may include various deliverables in consideration for fees. Such deliverables in our contracts include, but are not limited to, the provision of a software licence, support and maintenance services, as well as professional implementation and customisation services.

The nature of fee structures within the contracts vary by customer. The timing and frequency of invoicing depends on the terms and conditions of each contract. Invoices are billed to the customer either in advance or in arrears on normal commercial terms. Where the contract requires invoicing in advance, revenue is initially deferred as unearned revenue until the Group fulfils its performance obligations. Where the contract requires invoicing in arrears, revenue recognised on fulfilment of a performance obligation is brought to account as accrued revenue, until the Group’s right to consideration becomes unconditional and the accrued revenue is then presented as a receivable.

The Group’s accounting policies with respect to each of the individual deliverables in the Group’s customer contracts is outlined in sub-sections (i) onwards.

(i) Licence, support and maintenance revenue

The Group’s contracts for billing solutions regularly include software licences associated with the relevant billing solution provided to the customer. The nature of the licence varies by customer and billing solution. As part of the licence agreement, various support and maintenance services are available to support the customer’s use of the billing solution. This includes the provision of various bug fixes, updates and helpdesk support.

Generally, the provision of the software licence is a distinct performance obligation. However, where there are associated implementation, customisation or other professional services in the contract that significantly modify, customise or are highly interrelated with the licence, the software licence and implementation services are combined into a single performance obligation. The determination of whether the licence should be combined with the services is a matter of judgement, depending on the nature of the implementation of the services provided and the licence specifications in the customer contract.

How the licence performance obligation is fulfilled depends on the nature of the licence and how the Group provides the licence to the customer, irrespective of whether the licence is provided in perpetuity or for a specified contractual term:

• Where the licence is installed and delivered on customer premises, the customer can derive substantial benefits from the licence on its own. Therefore, the performance obligation is fulfilled (and revenue recognised) at the point in time the licence goes live, typically when customer acceptance has been obtained and the licence meets the agreed-upon specifications.

• Where the licence is hosted by the Group (for example, in some of our SaaS applications), the customer is dependent on our continual hosting of the licence platform in order to derive and receive substantial benefits from the licence. Therefore, the performance obligation is fulfilled (and revenue recognised) over time, which is typically evenly over the contracted period in which access to the licence is made available to the customer.

Licence fees in some pay-TV and telecommunications contracts are dependent on the subsequent usage of the licence by the customer, which is determined by customer-defined metrics such as subscriber counts or end-user numbers. For these contracts, the Group uses the sales/usage-based royalty exception and recognises revenue when the subsequent usage is known, which is typically at the end of each billing period.

Support and maintenance services are generally considered a distinct single performance obligation, separately identifiable to the software licence, as all the individual activities that comprise of support and maintenance are highly interrelated with each other. Revenue related to the provision of support and maintenance is recognised evenly over the contracted term in which the customer is entitled to receive support and maintenance.

(ii) Services revenue

The Group provides various configuration, implementation, customisation and other professional services that the customer is contracted to receive. This may be a part of the overall billing solution, or discrete projects separately agreed with the customer. The various individual activities that form the professional services provided to the customer are highly interrelated with each other and therefore is treated as a single performance obligation. Revenue from these professional services are recognised over time by reference to the stage of completion of the contracts. Stage of completion is measured by reference to labour hours incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated labour hours for each contract, and by reference to any contracted milestones achieved such as customer acceptance of the final specification.

As described above in ‘Licence, support and maintenance revenue’ certain professional services might be combined with the provision of the software licence depending on the nature of the licence and the professional services provided.

Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

48

(iii) Hardware/software sales revenue

Some of the Group’s subsidiaries on-sells certain third-party hardware and software products. Revenue is recognised when control over the software has transferred to the customer. Determination of when control has passed depends on whether the customer has legal title over the products, whether the customer has obtained possession of the products or whether the Group has present right to payment.

The Group is considered principal in the sales transaction as the Group has procured the products from its various vendors and the Group bears the risk and responsibility for selling those products to the customer.

(iv) Other revenue

Other revenue consists of reimbursed expenses incurred for servicing the customer contract. Revenue is recognised when the Group has legal enforceability under the contract to have the relevant expenses reimbursed from the customer.

(v) Financing components

The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer represents a financing component. Therefore, the Group does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

(vi) Presentation and disclosure

In Note 2(b) of the financial statements, the Group has disaggregated revenue recognised from contracts with customers into the following categories:

• the types of goods and services we provide our customers in our contracts;

• the primary market vertical that our customers operate in. ‘Energy’ includes our electricity, gas and water customers, while ‘Communications’ includes our telecommunications and pay-TV customers; and

• the key geographic regions where our customers are located, which is consistent with the geographic segments identified for our segment reporting.

We believe these categories best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

AASB 15 uses the terms ‘contract asset’ and ‘contract liability’. To maintain consistency in presentation with prior periods, the Group has retained the use of ‘accrued revenue’ and ‘unearned revenue’, respectively.

In disclosing the amount of the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations, the Group has elected to use the practical expedient available in AASB 15 and disclose only the amounts allocated to performance obligations expected to be satisfied after the next 12 months.

Other income

Interest income is recognised when it becomes receivable on a proportional basis, taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.

Sales tax (including GST and VAT)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of sales tax, except where the amount of sales tax incurred is not recoverable from the Tax Office. In these circumstances the sales tax is recognised as part of the acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the consolidated statement of financial position are shown inclusive of sales tax.

Cash flows are presented in the consolidated statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the sales tax component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and all attached conditions will be complied with. Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate. Government grants received for which there are no future related costs are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income immediately.

4. Separately disclosed items

The Group has disclosed underlying EBITDA and underlying profit after tax, referring to the Group’s trading results adjusted for certain transactions during the year that are not representative of the Group’s regular business activities. The Group considers that these transactions are of such significance to understanding the ongoing results of the Group that the Group has elected to separately identify these transactions to determine an ongoing result to enable a ‘like-for-like’ comparison. These items are described as ‘separately disclosed items’ throughout this Financial Report.

The Group has separately identified income that is considered not in the normal course of business activities. Included In this is the income from the sale of an office premises in Norway for $440,000. These amounts are included within the ‘Other income’ account in the Group’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Restructuring and one-off costs incurred

The Group recognised restructuring and one-off costs for the current financial year relating to redundancy and retention payments of staff amounting to $6,153,000 (2019: $72,000). These costs are part of the Group’s strategy to better integrate the business and align staffing according to customer demand. These costs are included within ‘Employee benefit expenses’ and ‘Other expenses’ in the Group’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Transaction costs related to the acquisition of Sigma Systems

In the previous financial year, transaction costs of $2,063,000 were incurred in relation to the acquisition of the Sigma Systems group of entities (Sigma). These include costs associated with vendor due diligence, legal and other administrative matters, as well as related travel costs incurred to meet representatives of Sigma’s management. These costs were included with ‘Travel expenses’ and ‘Other expenses’ in the Group’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Further details of the acquisition of Sigma are described in Note 25.

Onerous lease provision

In the previous financial year, a provision for future lease payments for one of the Group’s offices in the Americas was recognised, as the non-cancellable future payments in the lease contract were expected to exceed the benefits from keeping the office over the remainder of the lease term. The Group has separately identified these costs because it is not in the normal course of business activities. These costs were included within the ‘Property and operating rental expenses’ in the comparative Group’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Significant accounting policies

Income tax

Current income tax expense is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax balances

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the applicable tax rates when the assets are expected to be recovered or liabilities settled. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Tax consolidation

The Group is subject to income taxes in Australia and jurisdictions in which it has foreign operations. In some of these jurisdictions, namely Australia and the United States, the immediate parent entity and entities it controls have formed local income tax consolidated groups that are taxed as a single entity in their relevant jurisdiction. The head entity of the Australian tax consolidated group is Hansen Technologies Limited. Each tax consolidated group has entered a tax funding agreement whereby each entity in the tax consolidated group recognises the assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues in relation to its own transactions, events and balances only. This means that:

• the parent entity recognises all current and deferred tax amounts relating to its own transactions, events and balances only;

• the subsidiaries recognise current or deferred tax amounts arising in respect of their own transactions, events and balances; and

• the current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising in respect of tax losses are transferred from the subsidiary to the head entity as inter-company payables or receivables.

Each tax consolidated group also has a tax sharing agreement in place to limit the liability of subsidiaries in the tax consolidated group arising under the joint and several liability requirements of the tax consolidation system in the event of default by the parent entity to meet its payment obligations. This means that under the tax sharing agreement, the subsidiaries are legally liable to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated group.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.

The sundry receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. Based on the credit history of these receivables, it is expected that these amounts will be received when due and thus no provision for impairment has been recorded. The Group does not hold any collateral in relation to these receivables.

Significant accounting policies

Trade receivables

Trade receivables represent amounts owed by our customers and are recognised initially at the amount of consideration where the right to payment is conditional only on the passage of time. The Group holds the trade receivables with the objective of collecting contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less a provision for expected credit loss. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement between 30 and 60 days.

The Group recognises a provision for impairment by calculating lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs). In determining the appropriate amount of lifetime ECLs, the Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

Individual debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. Expected credit losses are recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within ‘Professional expenses’ account. When a trade receivable for which a provision for expected credit loss had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account.

Critical accounting estimate and judgement

Provision for expected credit losses of trade receivables

The Group uses a provision matrix to calculate ECLs for trade receivables. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments that have similar loss patterns (i.e. by geography, product type, customer type and rating, and coverage by letters of credit and other forms of credit insurance).

The provision matrix is initially based on the Group’s historical observed default rates. The Group will calibrate the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. For instance, if forecast economic conditions (i.e. gross domestic product) are expected to deteriorate over the next year, which can lead to an increased number of defaults in the energy sector, the historical default rates are adjusted. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.

The assessment of the correlation between historical observed default rates, forecast economic conditions and ECLs is a significant estimate. The amount of ECLs is sensitive to changes in circumstances and of forecast economic conditions. The Group’s historical credit loss experience and forecast of economic conditions may also not be representative of customer’s actual default in the future.

During the year, the Group has considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the amount of ECLs and has determined from its assessment that there has been no significant change to the recovery of the customers’ debts.

Cost and valuation

All classes of plant, equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation

The depreciable amounts of all fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives 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.

An item of plant, equipment and leasehold improvements initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of plant, equipment and leasehold improvements are reviewed at each financial year end and are adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Significant accounting policies

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identifiable or separately recognised. Refer to Note 25 for a description of how goodwill arising from a business combination is initially measured.

Technology and other intangibles

Other intangibles consist of trademarks, brand names, customer relationships and non-compete clauses.

Technology and other intangibles are recognised at cost and are amortised over their estimated useful lives, which is generally the term of the contract for customer contracts and five to 10 years for technology and other intangibles. Technology and other intangibles are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses.

Research and development

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense when incurred.

Development costs are capitalised when the entity can demonstrate all of the following: the technical feasibility of completing the asset so that it will be available for use or sale; the intention to complete the asset and use or sell it; the ability to use or sell the asset; how the asset will generate probable future economic benefits; the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset; and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the asset during its development.

Capitalised development expenditure is carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is calculated using a straight-line method to allocate the cost of the intangible asset over its estimated useful life, which is generally five years. Amortisation commences when the intangible asset is available for use.

Other development expenditure is recognised as an expense when incurred.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortised but are tested at least annually for impairment in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets . Assets subject to annual depreciation or amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances arise that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.

Critical accounting estimate and judgement

Capitalisation of research and development costs

Development costs incurred are assessed for each research and development project and a percentage of the expenditure is capitalised when technical feasibility studies demonstrate that the project will deliver future economic benefits and those benefits can be measured reliably.

There has been investment in research and development expenditure incurred in relation to the various billing software platforms in the 2020 financial year. Returns are expected to be derived from this investment over the coming year(s).

The assets’ residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate at each financial year end. The estimation of useful lives of assets has been based on historical experience and expected product lifecycle, which could change significantly as a result of technological innovation.

(a) Impairment test for goodwill

For impairment testing, the Group views that its past business combinations giving rise to goodwill on acquisition relate to synergistic opportunities for its billing solutions. Therefore, goodwill is allocated entirely to the Billing CGU, which is also an operating and reportable segment.

The recoverable amount of the Billing CGU has been determined based on a value-in-use calculation using cash flow projections over a five-year period. Cash flows beyond the five-year forecast period are extrapolated using the estimated terminal growth rates.

Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020 61

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUED 30 JUNE 2020

12. Intangible assets continued

(a) Impairment test for goodwill continued

Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations

The key assumptions for the Billing CGU supporting the disclosed recoverable value is as follows:

• EBITDA for the first year based on financial budgets approved by senior management;

• beyond the first year, profit before tax annual growth rate of 1.5% (2019: 1.8%);

• a post-tax discount rate of 6.7% (2019: 7.2%); and

• terminal growth rate of 1.0% (2019: 1.8%) at the end of the forecast period.

Both the EBITDA growth rate beyond FY20 and the terminal growth rate ranges are derived from management’s best estimate of revenue and operating expenditure growth, taking into account changes in the industry, customer market prospects, future product developments and technological innovation. Profit before income tax expense is then adjusted for amounts related to tax. Owing to the current global environment, management has chosen to be conservative and has reduced the annual and terminal growth rates to compensate for a fall in the overall risk-free rate.

The discount rate is based on the Group’s weighted average cost of capital.

Results of impairment testing and sensitivity to changes in assumptions

The current year’s calculation of the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU has not moved materially when compared to the prior year’s estimated recoverable amount of the CGU, as changes in annual and terminal growth rates have been offset by a decrease in the risk-free rate, and expected future cash generation has not changed materially from the previous corresponding period.

The following table sets out key parameters that need to change for there to be no headroom available when comparing the calculation of the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU against the carrying value of the CGU at 30 June 2020:

of the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU against the carrying value of the CGU at 30 June 2020:
Change required for carryingamount to equal recoverable amount	2020
Discount rate	3.09%
Budgeted EBITDAgrowth rate	(18.78%)

Critical accounting estimate and judgement

Impairment of goodwill

The Group tests whether goodwill has been impaired on an annual basis. Management’s judgement is applied to identify the cash generating units (CGU). The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculations, which require the use of assumptions and discounting of future cash flows. These assumptions are based on best estimates at the time of performing the valuation. Cash flow projections do not include restructuring activities that the Group is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the performance of the assets of the CGU being tested.

Goodwill is monitored by management at the level of operating segments identified in Note 2.

Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill

All assets are assessed for impairment at each reporting date by evaluating whether indicators of impairment exist in relation to the continued use of the asset by the consolidated entity. Impairment triggers include declining product or manufacturing performance, technology changes, adverse changes in the economic or political environment or future product expectations. If an indicator of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined.

Movements in cost and accumulated depreciation during the year are inclusive of any net foreign currency movements arising from foreign operations.

The Group has identified the following classes of right-of-use (ROU) assets: properties, vehicles, office and IT equipment. The largest class of asset recognised is the Group’s property leases, consisting of office buildings, as well as rental apartments for its employees undertaking short-term assignments overseas. Leases of properties generally have lease terms between six months and five years, while leases of office equipment, vehicles and IT equipment generally have terms between one and three years. The Group usually has rights to renew the lease arrangement that are reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore may have long, effective lease terms. The rental payments associated with each lease varies according to the amount of space rented and the location of the lease. However, in most cases the amount of rental payments is indexed annually in line with the relevant national consumer pricing index.

Reconciliation of the carrying amounts of ROU assets at the beginning and end of the current financial year by class of asset is shown below:

Following the adoption of AASB 16, the Group had total cash outflows for leases of $8,175,000 for the year ended 30 June 2020 (30 June 2019: $119,000 under AASB 117 Leases ). Out of the $8,175,000 cash outflows, $6,982,000 relates to cash outflows from investing activities (principal payments), while the remaining balance relates to cash outflows from operating activities (finance costs on lease liabilities). As a result of adopting AASB 16, the Group also had non-cash additions to ROU assets of $29,688,000 and lease liabilities of $30,038,000 during the financial year. The future cash outflows relating to leases that have not yet commenced are disclosed in Note 23.

64 Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

(e) AASB 16 Leases

AASB 16 supersedes all previous lease accounting requirements under Australian Accounting Standards. The main impact on the Group is that AASB 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for most leases.

(i) Impact on adoption

The Group adopted AASB 16 using the modified retrospective method of adoption, where the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard is recognised as an adjustment to opening balances on 1 July 2019 (the transition date). Therefore, comparative figures for prior reporting periods are not restated.

In adopting AASB 16, the Group has also taken advantage of the following practical expedients:

• For each class of ROU lease asset, the Group uses a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases that have the same lease term, same currency and located in the same jurisdiction.

• The Group will rely on its assessments under the previous accounting standards to determine whether a ROU asset is impaired. Accordingly, the Group has adjusted the ROU asset at transition date by the amount of any provisions for onerous leases previously recognised.

• The Group has excluded initial direct costs from the measurement of the ROU asset on transition date.

• The Group has used hindsight and assumed all previous options to extend the lease have been exercised in determining the lease term on transition date.

The Group has chosen not to apply the practical expedients for short-term leases and leases for which the assets are of low value.

The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to lease liabilities recognised at transition date was 4.7%.

The effect of adopting AASB 16 is as follows:

Significant accounting policies

Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease depends on whether the arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of an identified asset exists when the arrangement involves the use of an identified asset, when the Group obtains substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset, and when the Group has the right to direct the use of the asset.

The lease term is first determined with reference to the non-cancellable period of the lease contract, adjusted for any periods covered by options to extend the lease and/or to early terminate the lease if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the options. Judgement is applied by the Group in determining whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the options.

Lease liabilities are initially recognised and measured based on the total value of fixed and variable contractual lease payments over the lease term, including payments to extend or terminate the lease if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the option to extend or terminate the lease respectively. The lease payments are discounted to present value based on the incremental borrowing rate implicit in the lease.

Lease payments on properties exclude service fees for maintenance, cleaning and other costs as these costs are separated as non-lease components. However, the Group has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for leases of vehicles, office and IT equipment.

Leased assets are capitalised at the commencement date of the lease and comprise of the initial lease liability amount, initial direct costs incurred when entering the lease, less any lease incentives received.

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. Estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of plant and equipment. The right-of-use asset is also periodically assessed for impairment losses and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.

(i) Presentation and disclosure

Depreciation on right-of-use assets is included as part of ‘Depreciation expense’ account in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, and interest expense on lease liabilities is included as part of ‘Finance costs on lease liabilities’ account in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Right-of-use assets are disclosed separately on the consolidated statement of financial position, with Note 13(a) disaggregating the lease assets by class of asset. Lease liabilities are presented as current and non-current in the consolidated statement of financial position depending on the timing of the settlement of contractual cash outflows.

The repayment of the principal portion of lease payments is presented as part of financing activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows, and the interest portion is presented as part of operating activities.

Critical accounting estimate and judgement

Determining the lease term of contracts with renewal and termination options – Group as a lessee The Group determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.

The Group has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. The Group applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the renewal or termination. After the commencement date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise the option to renew or to terminate (e.g. construction of significant leasehold improvements or significant customisation to the leased asset).

Estimating the incremental borrowing rate

The Group cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, therefore, it uses its incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. The IBR is the rate of interest that the Group would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. The IBR therefore reflects what the Group ‘would have to pay’, which requires estimation when no observable rates are available (such as for subsidiaries that do not enter into financing transactions) or when they need to be adjusted to reflect the terms and conditions of the lease (for example, when leases are not in the subsidiary’s functional currency). The Group estimates the IBR using observable inputs (such as market interest rates) when available and is required to make certain entity-specific estimates (such as the subsidiary’s stand-alone credit rating).

Trade payables

Trade payables are initially recognised at their fair value and subsequently carried at amortised cost and are not discounted. These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are paid in accordance with vendor terms, which are usually within 30 to 60 days of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period.

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity 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.

Employee benefits liability

Employee benefits liability represents amounts provided for annual leave and long service leave. The current portion for this provision includes the total amount accrued for annual leave entitlements and the amounts accrued for long service leave entitlements that have vested due to employees having completed the required period of service.

Based on past experience, the Group does not expect the full amount of annual leave or long service leave balances classified as current liabilities to be settled within the next 12 months. These amounts are presented as current liabilities since the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of these amounts in the event employees wish to use their leave entitlement.

The following amounts reflect leave that is not expected to be taken or paid within the next 12 months:

Significant accounting policies

Short-term employee benefit obligations

Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave and any other employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts based on remuneration rates that are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. The expected cost of short-term employee benefits in the form of compensated absences such as annual leave and long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits. All other short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables.

Other long-term employee benefit obligations

The provision for other long-term employee benefits, including obligations for long service leave and annual leave, which are not expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the reporting period, are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of the services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Expected further payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, durations of service and employee turnover, and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on high-quality corporate bonds that have maturity dates that approximate the terms of the obligations. Any remeasurements for changes in assumptions of obligations for other long-term employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in which the change occurs.

Other long-term employee benefit obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting date, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur. All other long-term employee benefit obligations are presented as non-current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Retirement benefit obligations

The consolidated entity makes superannuation and pension contributions to the employee’s defined contribution plan of choice in respect of employee services rendered during the year. These contributions are recognised as an expense in the same period when the related employee services are received. The Group’s obligation with respect to employees’ defined contributions entitlements is limited to its obligation for any unpaid superannuation and pension guarantee contributions at the end of the reporting period. All obligations for unpaid superannuation and pension guarantee contributions are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled and are presented as current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Bonus plan

The consolidated entity recognises a provision when a bonus is payable in accordance with the employee’s contract of employment or review letter and the amount can be reliably measured.

Termination benefits

The Group recognises an obligation and expense for termination benefits at the earlier of: (a) the date when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer for termination benefits; and (b) when the Group recognises costs for restructuring and the costs include termination benefits. In either case, the obligation and expense for termination benefits is measured on the basis of the best estimate of the number of employees expected to be affected. Termination benefits that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the annual reporting period in which the benefits are recognised are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid and are presented as current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position. All other termination benefits are accounted for on the same basis as other long-term employee benefits and are presented as non-current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.

17. Share-based payments

(a) Employee Share Plan

The Employee Share Plan (ESP) is available to all eligible employees each year to acquire ordinary shares in the Company from future remuneration (before tax). Shares to be issued or transferred under the ESP will be valued at the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s shares traded on the Australian Securities Exchange during the five business days immediately preceding the day the shares are issued or transferred. Shares issued under the ESP are not allowed to be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of until the earlier of the end of an initial three-year period, or the participant ceasing continuing employment with the Company.

Details of the movement in employee shares under the ESP are as follows:

There were no shares issued under the ESP for the current financial year.

(b) Employee Performance Rights Plan

The Employee Performance Rights Plan (the Rights Plan) was approved by shareholders at the Company’s AGM on 23 November 2017. Under the Plan, awards are made to eligible executives and other management personnel who have an impact on the Group’s performance. Plan awards for long-term incentives are granted in the form of performance rights over shares, which vest over a period of three years subject to meeting performance measures and continuous employment with the Company. During the year, a new deferred equity component for short-term incentives was introduced where 25% of the award is in the form of performance rights. These rights are subject to a two-year deferral period where recipients must retain employment with the Company. Each performance right is to subscribe for one ordinary share upon vesting and, when issued, the shares will rank equally with other shares.

Performance rights issued under the Employee Performance Rights Plan are valued on the same basis as those issued to KMP, which is described in Note 17(d).

There were no performance rights vested or lapsed during the financial year.

The weighted average contractual life of outstanding performance rights at the end of the financial year is 1.26 years (2019: 1.77 years).

(c) Employee Share Option Plan

The Employee Share Option Plan (the Option Plan) was approved by shareholders at the Company’s AGM on 9 November 2001 and reaffirmed at the AGM on 24 November 2011. Under the Option Plan, awards are made to eligible executives and other management personnel who have an impact on the Group’s performance. Option Plan awards are delivered in the form of options over shares which vest over a period of three years subject to meeting performance measures and continuous employment with the Company. Each option is to subscribe for one ordinary share when the option is exercised and, when issued, the shares will rank equally with other shares.

Unless the terms on which an option was offered specified otherwise, an option may be exercised at any time after the vesting date on satisfaction of the relevant performance criteria.

Options issued under the Employee Share Option Plan are valued on the same basis as those issued to KMP, which is described in Note 17(d).

There were no new options issued under the Option Plan during the 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2019 financial years, as the Option Plan was replaced with the Rights Plan as described in Note 17(b).

17. Share-based payments continued

Significant accounting policies

Share-based payments

The Group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share, options and rights schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting date). The fair value of shares is measured at the market bid price at grant date. In respect of share-based payments that are dependent on the satisfaction of performance conditions, the number of options and rights expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at each reporting date. The amount recognised for services received as consideration for these equity instruments granted is adjusted to reflect the best estimate of the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

Share-based payments are subject to two different forms of measurement:

• Market-based

• Non-market-based

These measurement criteria are subject to different accounting treatments under AASB 2 Share-based Payment .

Market-based measurement

Any awards subject to market conditions will vest irrespective of the condition being met. Where a condition is not met, the expense associated with the award will continue to be recognised over the vesting period.

Non-market-based measurement

For any non-market-based awards where the condition is not satisfied, the expense incurred to date is reversed and no further charge is recognised over the remaining period.

Critical accounting estimate and judgement

Share-based payments

The fair value of options and rights is estimated on the grant date using an adjusted form of the Black Scholes Model and Monte Carlo simulation model. Estimating fair value for share-based payments requires significant assumptions such as determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model, including the expected life of the share option or performance right, volatility in the share price and dividend yield.

Section E: Capital and Financial Risk Management

This section explains our policies and procedures applied to manage our financing and capital structure, and the associated risks that we are exposed to. The Group manages its financial and capital structure to maximise shareholder return, maintain an optimal cost of capital and provide flexibility for strategic investments.

18. Financial risk management

The Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks, principally related to credit, liquidity, interest rate and foreign currency risk. The Group’s risk management framework is aligned with best practices and designed to reduce volatility on our financial performance and to support the delivery of our business objectives. The Board has overall responsibility for identifying and monitoring operational and financial risks.

(a) Credit risk

Nature of risk The risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers and our investments in debt securities.

Exposure to the risk The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is the carrying amount of financial assets, net of any provisions for impairment and excluding the value of any collateral or other security.

The gross trade receivables balance as at 30 June 2020 was $48,336,000 (2019: $47,510,000). The ageing analysis of trade and other receivables is provided in Note 9. As the Group undertakes transactions with a large number of customers and regularly monitors payment in accordance with credit terms, the financial assets that are past due but not impaired are expected to be received.

The Group’s exposure to credit risk is affected by the regions and industries our customers operate in. Set out below shows the concentration of our trade receivables balances by the industry they operate in.

How is the risk Receivables are managed on an ongoing basis. The Group does not have any material credit risk exposure managed? to any single debtor or group of debtors. Ageing analysis and ongoing collectability reviews are performed and, where appropriate, an expected credit loss provision is raised. Historically, the Group has not had any significant write-offs in our trade receivables.

The Group minimises concentrations of credit risk in relation to trade receivables by undertaking transactions with a large number of customers. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on a variety of factors, including their credit ratings and financial position.

	damage to the Group’s reputation.
	The Group reviews its minimum levels of cash and cash equivalents on an ongoing basis, and closely monitors
	rolling cash flow forecasts based on its view on the nature and timing of expected receipts and payments. The
	Group has historically been able to generate and retain strong positive cash flows. Additionally, multi-currency
	borrowing facilities have been arranged with the Group’s financiers to provide increased capacity for strategic
	growth objectives.

(c) Interest rate risk

Nature of risk	The risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes
	in market interest rates.
Exposure to the risk	The Group’s main exposure to interest rate risk arises from its lease liabilities, borrowings and cash and cash
	equivalents. No other financial assets or liabilities are expected to be exposed to interest rate risk.
	The weighted average variable interest rate across all our borrowings at 30 June 2020 is 3.46% (2019: 4.52%).
	If the interest rate were to increase or decrease by 1%, with all other variables held constant, the impact to pre-
	tax profit is $2,064,000 (2019: $354,000) and the impact to post-tax equity1is $1,482,000 (2019: $251,000).
	This impact is based on a higher level of borrowings during most of this financial year compared to the prior
	year and the recognition of lease liabilities upon adoption of AASB 16.
	1. Post-tax equity is calculated as the net of the blended effective tax rate on pre-tax profit based on where the interest-bearing
	debt is located (i.e. Australia and Canada) and the prevailing corporate tax rate in each of those jurisdictions (i.e. 30% and 26.5%
	respectively).
How is the risk	The Group ensures it has access to diverse sources of funding, including access to foreign currency debt.
managed?	The Group closely monitors its debt ratios to reduce its risk exposure to uncertainty in the global markets
	if interest rates will fall or rise. Management is comfortable with the risk associated with using variable interest
	rates due to the current level of borrowings.
(d) Foreign currency risk
Nature of risk	The risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument or forecasted transaction will fluctuate
	because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
Exposure to the risk	The Group operates internationally and as such has exposure to foreign currency movements. The Group has
	expanded its international operations substantially in recent years to the extent that in excess of 85% of its
	revenue is now earned in foreign currency designated transactions. The Group has a number of offices located
	internationally and more than 88% of its work force is located overseas and paid in foreign currencies.
	Changes in foreign currency exchange rates would be limited to the revaluation of foreign currency-denominated
	borrowings, intercompany financing arrangements denominated in foreign currencies, and foreign currency
	bank balances in the Group at market rates at balance sheet date.
	The Group’s primary foreign currency exposure relates to the movement in US Dollar (USD), British Pound
	(GBP), Canadian Dollar (CAD) and Euro (EUR) exchange rates. At the reporting date, cash and cash equivalents
	included $38.4 million (2019: $34.3 million) denominated in foreign currencies.
	If the foreign currency exchange rate for our primary foreign currencies (being USD, GBP, CAD and EUR) were
	to move by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the impact to our foreign currency translation reserves
	(classified as equity in the consolidated statement of financial position) on translation of our foreign currency-
	denominated cash and cash equivalents is as follows:

	Increase/(Decrease)$’000
	USD GBP CAD EUR
	2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies and other financial statement items is not material, as the Group has natural hedging and designated hedging relationships in place (refer to ‘How is the risk managed?’ for further discussion).

18. Financial risk management continued

(d) Foreign currency risk continued

How is the risk	The Group manages its foreign currency risk by evaluating its exposure to fluctuations on an ongoing basis.
managed?	The Group’s overseas subsidiaries transact in different functional currencies. The effects of any exchange
	rate movements in respect of the net assets of our foreign subsidiaries are recognised in the foreign currency
	translation reserve in equity. Accordingly, the Group has an inbuilt natural hedge against major currency
	fluctuations and, except for significant sudden change, is protected in part by its corporate structure against
	currency movements so that the impact is largely limited to the margin.
	In addition, the Group holds foreign currency borrowings as part of the syndicated facility agreement as
	disclosed in Note 19, which have been designated as hedging instruments of the net assets of some of the
	Group’s principal overseas subsidiaries in order to offset our risk exposure arising from the translation of these
	subsidiaries into Australian dollars. There is no impact to the profit or loss on the translation of the Group’s
	overseas subsidiaries or foreign currency borrowings to the Australian dollar.

The Group’s subsidiaries also enter into various financing and transactional arrangements with each other in accordance with local regulatory requirements. The Group regularly reviews these arrangements to minimise its exposure on the translation of outstanding foreign currency-denominated intercompany balances to the Australian dollar, which impact profit.

Significant accounting policies

Functional and presentation currency

The financial statements of each entity within the consolidated Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements of the Group are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Group’s functional and presentation currency.

Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies of entities within the consolidated Group are translated into its functional currency at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction.

Foreign currency monetary items that are outstanding at the reporting date (other than monetary items arising under foreign currency contracts where the exchange rate for that monetary item is fixed in the contract) are translated using the spot rate at the end of the financial year.

All resulting exchange differences arising on settlement or restatement are recognised in profit or loss and presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the financial year.

(e) Fair value measurements

Due to their short-term nature, the fair value of receivables and payables approximates their carrying amounts as disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position and notes to the consolidated financial statements. At 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2019, there are no assets or liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis.

On 1 May 2019, the Group entered into a secured $225,000,000 syndicated multi-currency facility with its external financiers to fund the acquisition of Sigma Systems (refer Note 25) and to provide additional funding for general corporate and working capital purposes. This facility expires on 30 April 2022 and will be subject to renewal upon negotiation with its external financiers. The facility is secured by 75% of Group assets. As at 30 June 2020, the remaining unutilised portion of the facility is $56,606,000.

On 27 July 2020, the Group voluntarily cancelled $40,000,000 of the facility effective from 30 July 2020. After this, the unutilised portion of the facility is $16,606,000.

(c) Hedge of net investments in foreign operations

Included in the ‘Borrowings’ account as at 30 June 2020 are two borrowings of US$12,000,000 and GB£13,000,000 drawn down as part of the syndicated multi-currency facility in the prior year. Repayments have been made during the year and as at 30 June 2020, carrying amount of these borrowings are US$4,500,000 and GB£8,500,000.

Both these foreign currency-denominated borrowings have been designated as a hedge of the net investments in the Group’s subsidiaries in the United States and the United Kingdom. The borrowings are being used to hedge the Group’s exposure to the US$ and GB£ foreign exchange risk on these investments. Gains or losses on the retranslation of the borrowings are transferred to other comprehensive income to offset any gains or losses on translation of the net investments in the subsidiaries.

The Group’s hedging relationship remains unchanged from the prior year for its foreign currency-denominated borrowings.

(c) Hedge of net investments in foreign operations continued

The effects of the foreign currency related hedging instruments on the Group’s financial position and performance are as follows:

Note	Syndicated Debt Facility ’000
	USD Loan GBP Loan Total
Carrying amount of the loan – 30 June 2020 (AUD) Carrying amount of the loan – 30 June 2020 (nominated currency) Hedge ratio1 Change in the carrying amount of loan as a result of foreign currency movements since 1 July 2019, recognised in OCI ($) 22(a) Change in the value of the hedged item used to determine hedge effectiveness ($) Average hedged rate for theyear(local currency:1 AUD)	6,543 15,240 21,783 4,500 8,500 1:1 1:1 672 130 802 (672) (130) (802) 0.671 0.532
	21,783

1. The draw-down loans under the syndicated debt facilities are denominated in the same currency and critical terms as the value of the net investment in the foreign subsidiaries that are being hedged. Therefore, the hedge ratio this year is 1:1 (2019: 1:1).

The impact to the foreign currency translation reserve on translation of the Group’s net investment in foreign subsidiaries that are being hedged by the Group’s borrowings was a decrease of $802,000 (2019: increase of $43,000). The hedging loss recognised in ‘OCI’ (Other Comprehensive Income) before tax is equal to the change in fair value used for measuring effectiveness. There is no ineffectiveness in the years ended 30 June 2020 and 2019.

Significant accounting policies

Loans and borrowings

Interest-bearing loans and borrowings are initially recognised as financial liabilities at fair value net of directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.

Borrowings are classified as non-current liabilities except for those that mature in less than 12 months from the reporting date, which are classified as current liabilities.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs can include interest expense calculated using the effective interest method and finance charges in respect of finance leases. Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred except for borrowing costs incurred as part of the construction of a qualifying asset, in which case the costs are capitalised until the asset is ready for its intended use or sale.

(c) Rights of each type of share

Ordinary shares participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the parent entity in proportion to the number of shares held. At shareholders meetings, each ordinary share is entitled to one vote when a poll is called.

(d) Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares, increase debt, sell assets to reduce debt or a combination of these activities.

The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2019 Financial Report.

21. Dividends

A final dividend of 7 cents per share has been declared. This final dividend of 7 cents per share, partially franked to 0.70 cents per share, comprising of a regular dividend of 5 cents per share, together with a special dividend of 2 cents per share, was announced to the market on 28 August 2020.

24. Parent entity information continued

Significant accounting policies

The financial information for the parent Company has been prepared on the same basis as the Group consolidated financial statements, except as set out below:

Investments in subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted at cost. Dividends received from subsidiaries are recognised in the parent entity’s statement of comprehensive income when its right to receive the dividend is established.

Where the parent Company has provided financial guarantees in relation to loans and payables of subsidiaries for no compensation, the fair value of these guarantees is accounted for as contributions and recognised as part of the cost of the investment.

25. Business combinations

Acquisition of Sigma Systems

On 1 June 2019, the Company’s subsidiary, Hansen Technologies Canada Inc., acquired 100% of the partnership units of Sigma Systems GP and the shares of Sigma Systems Canada Inc., both of which wholly own and control the partnership units of Sigma Systems LP and its controlled entities (collectively known as ‘Sigma’). Sigma is a leading global provider of catalogue-driven software products for telecommunications, media and technology companies. Sigma is based in Toronto, Canada, but has customers operating across all regions of the world. The acquisition significantly expands the Group’s scale and scope in the communications sector, builds on the Group’s global presence and provides opportunities for cross-selling products into the Group’s existing market verticals.

The fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as at the date of acquisition were previously reported at their provisional amounts in light of the timing of the transaction. At 30 June 2020, provisional fair value of assets and liabilities acquired have been finalised, including the corresponding goodwill and purchase price consideration, as detailed below:

Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

The Group has made retrospective adjustments to the accounting for the business combination in the comparative amounts for the financial year ended 30 June 2019 as follows:

(a) Accrued revenue

Information obtained during the measurement period provided that the provisional amount of accrued revenue included revenue accruals for a licence and professional services contract that did not meet certain revenue recognition criteria amounting to $2,021,000. An adjustment was recognised to reflect the fair value of accrued revenue acquired at acquisition date.

(b) Accruals and provisions

There were certain liabilities upon acquisition amounting to $2,575,000 that were previously not recorded. Adjustment to increase the ‘Other payables’ account by $2,332,000 and ‘Provisions’ account by $243,000 were recognised to reflect the fair value of accruals and provisions acquired at acquisition date.

(c) Unearned revenue

An accounting error for $236,000 was identified as part of the unearned revenue balance provisionally acquired. An adjustment was recognised to reflect the fair value of unearned revenue assumed at acquisition date.

(d) Goodwill

The adjustments to the fair value of assets and the purchase price consideration has affected the fair value of the goodwill at acquisition date. The overall increase in goodwill at acquisition date is $5,911,000.

(e) Total purchase consideration

In accordance with the agreement with the vendors of Sigma, the total purchase price consideration is to be adjusted for any pre-tax closing refund received by the Company and the position in net working capital in accordance with the hurdle agreed upon. The net amount payable to the vendors of Sigma after considering the pre-tax closing refund and working capital adjustment amounts to $1,079,000. This amount is included under ‘Other payables’ account. Refer to Note 14.

Goodwill arose on the acquisition of Sigma due to the combination of the consideration paid for the business and the net assets acquired, less values attributed to other intangibles in the form of customer contracts, trade names and technology. The value of goodwill represents the strong positioning of Sigma in the communications market, and includes the future benefit arising from the expected future earnings, synergies with the Group’s products and operations and personnel assumed via the acquisition. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The fair value of trade receivables approximates the gross contractual amount of trade receivables, due to the short-term nature and maturity of the trade receivables.

(i) Transaction costs

There were no transaction costs (2019: $2,063,000) incurred during the period in relation to the acquisition. Transaction costs were identified as a separately disclosed item. Refer to Note 4 for further information.

(ii) Contribution since acquisition

During the year, Sigma has contributed total revenue of $68,343,000 (2019: $4,968,000) and an underlying EBITDA of $14,136,000 (2019: loss of $317,000), which is included within the Group’s consolidated results.

(iii) Deferred remuneration

Separate to the business combination in accordance with the accounting standards, in the previous financial year an amount of $2,235,000 has been paid and held in escrow as deferred remuneration for certain executives of Sigma. In the current financial year, $164,000 of this amount has been released. Release of the amounts from escrow are contingent on continuous employment with the combined Group. At 30 June 2020, the balance of this amount is $2,060,000 of which $1,132,000 and $928,000 are included as part of ‘Other assets – current’ and ‘Other assets – non-current’, accounts in Note 10, respectively.

25. Business combinations continued

Significant accounting policies

Business combinations

A business combination is a transaction or other event in which an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses and results in the consolidation of the assets and liabilities acquired. Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method.

The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree. Deferred consideration payable is measured at its acquisition date fair value. At each reporting date subsequent to the acquisition, contingent consideration payable is measured at its fair value with any changes in the fair value recognised in profit or loss unless the contingent consideration is classified as equity, in which case the contingent consideration is carried at the acquisition-date fair value.

Goodwill is recognised initially at the excess of: (a) the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the fair value of the non-controlling interests and the acquisition date fair value of the acquirers previously held equity interest; over (b) the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

Critical accounting estimate and judgement

Business combinations

The Group is required to determine the acquisition date and fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, including intangible assets such as brands, customer relationships, software and liabilities assumed. The estimated useful lives of the acquired amortisable assets, the identification of intangibles and the determination of the indefinite or finite useful lives of intangible assets acquired are assessed based on management’s judgement. The Group reassesses the fair value of net assets acquired a year after the acquisition date and judgement is required to ensure that any adjustments made reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The adjustments made to fair value of net assets are retrospective in nature and have an impact on goodwill recognised on acquisition.

Subsidiaries that have a functional currency different to the presentation currency of the Group are translated as follows:

• assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;

• income and expenses are translated at actual exchange rates or average exchange rates for the period, where appropriate; and

• all resulting exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the Group’s foreign currency translation reserve as a separate component of equity in the balance sheet.

Exchange differences arising on the reduction of a foreign subsidiary’s equity continues to be recognised in the Group’s foreign currency translation reserve until such time that the foreign subsidiary is disposed of.

29. New and amended accounting standards and interpretations

(a) Adoption of new and amended accounting standards that are first operative

at 30 June 2020

The Group has adopted the following new and amended accounting standards, applicable and effective for the financial year beginning 1 July 2019:

• AASB 16 Leases

• AASB Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

• AASB 9 Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation (Amendments to AASB 9)

• AASB 128 Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures (Amendments to AASB 128)

• Annual Improvements to AASB 2015-2017 Cycle

• Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (Amendments to AASB 119)

Except for AASB 16, these Standards and amendments do not have a significant impact on the Financial Report and therefore the disclosures have not been made. Note 13(e) discloses and describes the impact from the adoption of AASB 16.

The Group has not early adopted any other Standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year disclosures.

(b) Accounting standards and interpretations issued but not operative at 30 June 2020

The following new and revised accounting standards and interpretations have been issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board at the reporting date, which are considered relevant to the Group but are not yet effective. The Directors’ assessment of the impact of these standards and interpretations is set out below:

(i) AASB 2018-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards: Definition of a Business

These amendments revise the definition of a business in AASB 3 Business Combinations . The amendments clarify the minimum requirements for a business, remove the assessment of whether market participants are capable of replacing missing elements, add guidance to help entities assess whether an acquired process is substantive, narrow the definitions of a business and of outputs, and introduce an optional fair value concentration test.

Group’s assessment performed to date

Since the amendments apply prospectively to transactions or other events that occur on or after the date of first application, the Group will not be affected by these amendments on the first date of transition.

(ii) Amendments to the Conceptual Framework

The IASB has issued amendments to the Conceptual Framework to apply the new definition and recognition criteria to assets and liabilities, and introduces new concepts regarding the measurement, presentation and disclosure and derecognition of assets and liabilities.

Group’s assessment performed to date

The amendments to the Conceptual Framework are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

92 Hansen Technologies Ltd Annual Report 2020

(iii) Amendments to AASB 101 and AASB 108: Definition of Material

These amendments align the definition of ‘material’ across the standards and clarify certain aspects of the definition. The new definition states, that ‘Information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity’.

Group’s assessment performed to date

The amendments to the definition of material are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

30. Subsequent events

The Group has voluntarily cancelled $40.0 million of the syndicated multi-currency facility effective from 30 July 2020 (Note 19).

The Directors resolved to pay a final dividend of 7 cents per share (franked to 0.70 cents), comprising of a regular dividend of 5 cents per share together with a special dividend of 2 cents per share to be paid on 25 September 2020 (Note 21).

Hansen Technologies Limited and Sigma Systems Canada LP executed a deed of parent guarantee and indemnity on 7 July 2020 in favour of a financing company based in Canada to secure a credit card facility (Note 24).

Apart from the above, there has been no other matter or circumstance, which has arisen since 30 June 2020 that has significantly affected or may significantly affect:

• (i) the operations, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2020, of the Group; or

• (ii) the results of those operations; or

• (iii) the state of affairs, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2020, of the Group.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key Audit Matter Recognition of Revenue Refer to Note 3 in the financial statements

Revenue recognition was considered a key audit matter, as it is complex and involves significant management judgements.

The Group’s revenue is primarily derived from the provision of billing solution services to customers, maintenance and support , and licences. Revenue determined for some of the service contracts is based on stage of completion, calculated on the proportion of total costs incurred at the reporting date compared to management’s estimation of the total costs of the contract.

How our audit addressed this matter Our audit procedures in relation to the recognition of revenue included:

 Assessing whether the Group’s revenue recognition policies were in compliance with Australian Accounting Standards;  Evaluating and testing the operating effectiveness of management’s controls related to revenue recognition;  For a sample of revenue transactions, substantiating transactions by agreeing to supporting documentation, including contracts with customers;  For a sample of revenue transactions that were recognised on a percentage of completion basis, our testing included: – Agreeing the contract price and variations to customer contracts; – Assessing management’s estimate of costs to complete; and – Assessing whether the project was within budgeted margin.  Reviewing sales transactions before and after year-end to ensure that revenue was recognised in the correct period; and  Reviewing large or unusual transactions during the financial year.

Key Audit Matters (continued)

Impairment of Intangible Assets

Refer to Note 12 in the financial statements

The Group has net book value goodwill of $220 million in respect of acquisitions of subsidiaries as at 30 June 2020. We identified this area as a Key Audit Matter due to the size of the goodwill balance, and because the directors’ assessment of the ‘value in use’ of the cash generating unit (“CGU”) involves significant judgements about the future underlying cash flows of the business, discount rates and terminal growth applied.

For the year ended 30 June 2020 management have performed an impairment assessment over the goodwill balance by:

 calculating the value in use for the CGU using a discounted cash flow model. The model used cash flows (revenues, expenses and capital expenditure) for the CGU for 5 years, with a terminal growth rate applied to the 5th year. The cash flows were then discounted to net present value using the Company’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC); and

Our audit procedures in relation to management’s impairment assessment involved the assistance of our Corporate Finance team where required, and included:

• Assessing management’s determination that the goodwill should be allocated to a single CGU based on the nature of the Group’s business and the manner in which results are monitored and reported;

• Assessing the valuation methodology used;

• Challenging the reasonableness of key assumptions, including the cash flow projections, exchange rates, discount rates, and sensitivities used; and

• Checking the mathematical accuracy of the cash flow model, and reconciling input data to supporting evidence, such as approved budgets and considering the reasonableness of these budgets.

 comparing the resulting value in use of the CGU to its respective book value.

Management also performed a sensitivity analysis over the value in use calculations, by varying the WACC and other assumptions.

Key Audit Matters (continued)

Key Audit Matter	How our audit addressed this matter
Adoption of AASB 16 Leases Refer to Note 13 in the financial statements
The Group adopted AASB 16 Leases ("AASB 16") on 1 July 2019, using the modified retrospective method, which has resulted in changes to accounting policies. The Group has elected not to restate comparative information as permitted by the transitional provisions of AASB 16. At 30 June 2020, the Group recognised in the Statement of Financial Position a Right of Use asset of $20.1 million and an associated lease liability of $21.1 million. We determined the adoption of this standard to be a key audit matter because of:  the complexity of the standard and the significance of the differences to the previous standard;  the degree of manual involvement required in identifying lease contracts and contract terms;  the extent of judgment required in determining the inputs into the calculations of the lease liability and right of use asset, including the applicable discount rate and the likelihood of exercise of options to extend or terminate early a lease; and  the length and complexity of disclosures required including those required on initial adoption.	Our audit procedures in relation to the application of AASB 16 included:  Obtaining an understanding of the processes undertaken and controls implemented in adopting the standard, including the transitional decisions made;  Obtaining the Group’s leasing model used by the Group for lease management, and, on a sample basis: – Reviewing the contracts of the selected leases, and ensuring that lease and non-lease components have been identified appropriately; – Corroborating key inputs, including the inception date, commencement date, and initial contractual expense to underlying lease documentation ; – Evaluating the key assumptions made in the judgmental inputs of the valuation model, including the likelihood of exercise of options to extend and the discount rate used for calculation of the lease liability; – Verifying the mathematical accuracy of the underlying model by recalculating the resulting lease liability and right of use asset initially recognised, and the interest and depreciation charges recognised in the statement of profit and loss for the year; and – reviewing the adequacy of the relevant disclosures in the financial statements
Acquisition of Sigma Systems Refer to Note 25 in the financial statements
The accounting for the acquisition of Sigma Systems, which was disclosed as provisional in the 30 June 2019 financial statements has been finalised during the year. This was considered a key audit matter as there is a risk that the final acquisition accounting adjustments may be materially misstated and related disclosures may be materially inaccurate in the financial report.	Our audit procedures in relation to the acquisition of Sigma included:  Discussing with management the measurement period adjustments which have taken place;  Reviewing calculations and supporting documentation associated with any measurement period adjustments;  Assessing whether there have been any indicators for impairment of goodwill as a result of Sigma’s results being lower than budget.  Assessing the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures in respect of business acquisitions.

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the financial report and the auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

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 ability of the Group 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.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report

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. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1.pdf. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
