Comments

The loss for the consolidated entity after providing for income tax amounted to $1,037,177 (30 June 2016: profit of $337,001).

  • FY17 was a year in which management spent considerable time on IPO related activities, building new product and onboarding key partners. In the period the following key initiatives were achieved:

  • Completion of the ASX Listing on 12 January 2017.

  • Launching of the new Unlimited Wi-Fi App in February 2017.

  • Launching of Chubb Wi-Fi App in May 2017 and subsequent to year end Chubb- American Express solution in July 2017 and extending this offering across multiple countries.

  • Employment of a Chief Operating Officer (COO) in March 2017 and subsequent business development resources in the following months.

  • Migration of the key partner from a cost sharing model to a commission only model as of 1 December 2016.

  • • Ongoing investment and development of the GAP platform and product optimisation.

The significant proportion of the loss incurred was a result of the following items:

  • Non-recurring costs relating to the IPO expensed in the year of $445K.

  • Increased cost of management and business development resources which were employed to execute the growth strategy.

  • Increased investment in the deployment of 2 new global partner opportunities with the Wi-Fi App which as at July 2017 are now available across 3 countries.

  • Increased costs of ensuring the security of the GAP platform including penetration and vulnerability testing conducted across all sites and locations.

  • On going audit, compliance and listing costs of $202K.

Revenue for the period is down 17.5% on the previous period as a result of the following items:

  • A change in revenue model with our key partner that took effect on the 1st of December 2016 resulting in delayed revenue recognition and a new commission only model for the partner. With unearned/unbooked revenue as at the year end growing to $332K.

  • Decreased order volume as a result of a technical issue in the change of offer process that is in the process of being rectified.

  • Delays in onboarding and rollout of the 2 new key global partners for the Wi-Fi App resulted in targets not being achieved for the period.

United Networks Limited Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements 30 June 2017

Note 1. Statement of significant accounting policies

Statement of compliance

This preliminary final report (the Report) is to be read in conjunction with any public announcements made by United Networks Limited during the reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Securities Exchange Listing Rules.

The preliminary final report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

The Report is presented in Australian dollars, which is the functional currency of United Networks Limited and its controlled entities and has been prepared on the basis of historical cost except in accordance with relevant accounting policies where assets and liabilities are stated at their fair values.

Significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year.

Comparatives

Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to comply with the changes in presentation in the current period.

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below.

Estimation of useful lives of assets

The consolidated entity determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and finite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down.

Goodwill impairment

The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill has suffered any impairment. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows. For information relating to the value-in-use calculations refer to note 8.

Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets

The consolidated entity assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves fair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions.

Recovery of deferred tax assets

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

Note 3. Operating segments

Identification of reportable operating segments

Operating segments are identified based on separate financial information which is regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors, representing the consolidated entity's Chief Operating Decision Makers (CODM), in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.

The consolidated entity operates in primarily one geographical segment, namely Australia. The primary business segment is telecommunications namely voice, data and value added services. As the consolidated entity operates in only one segment, the consolidated results are also its segment results.

● An amount of $419K in excess of the FY16 R&D grant accrual was received in the year. An accrual of $600K has been made for FY17 which is inline with the previous year.

Note 5. Expenses

A review of expenses shows that the following expenses increased over the period from the previous year. These items can be split into 3 key areas:

ASX listing recurring and non-recurring expenses

● Fees relating to the ongoing recurring compliance including Audit, Insurance and ASX listing increased by $164K from $38K to $202K in the period.

● Non-recurring IPO related costs expensed in the period of $445K.

Management and Business Development

● Salaries and wages increased by $165K as a result of the new management and business development employed post the IPO to expedite new opportunities for the business.

● Expenses relating to business development and marketing increased as result of the 2 new global partnerships announced in the period.

Increased IT and Security

● Increased by $60K to $340K in the period as a result of increased security and vulnerability and penetration testing completed in the year and deployment of additional websites and resources for new partners.

All other expenses remained comparable or inline with the previous year.

Impairment testing

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to a cash-generating unit or to a group of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit, among others, from the synergies of the business combination. The Group’s cash-generating units are defined on the basis of the geographical market, normally country-related. The consolidated entity operates in primarily one geographical segment - Australia, and the carrying amount of goodwill has been allocated to Australia.

The recoverable amount of the consolidated entity's goodwill has been determined by a value-in-use calculation using a discounted cash flow model, based on a 1 year projection period approved by management and extrapolated for a further 4 years using a steady rate, together with a terminal value.

The following key assumptions were used in the discounted cash flow model:

(a) Pre-tax discount rate of 13.3% per annum;

  • (b) Revenue growth is based on management projections for 2018, and 5% increases for 2019 - 2022;

  • (c) Budgeted gross margin of 51%;

  • (d) Operating expenses are based on management projections for 2018, and 2.5% increases for 2019 - 2022;

(e) Long-term growth rate of 2.5%.

The discount rate of 13.3% pre-tax reflects management’s estimate of the time value of money and the consolidated entity’s weighted average cost of capital, the risk-free rate and the volatility of the share price relative to market movements.

Management believes the 2018 revenue projection and 5% increases through to 2022 is achievable and justified, based on the projected growth of new products and partners, two of which have been signed on since year-end and the roll-out is actively in place through out Asia-Pacific.

The budgeted gross margin is based on past performance and management's expectations for the future.

Operating expenses do not vary significantly with revenue. Management forecasts these costs based on the current structure of the business, adjusting for inflationary increases but not reflecting any future restructurings or cost saving measures.

The long-term growth rate is used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the 5-year forecast and is based on external forecasts.

Based on the above, the recoverable amount of the goodwill exceeded the carrying amount by $2,258,045.

United Networks Limited Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements 30 June 2017

Note 8. Non-current assets - intangibles (continued)

Sensitivity

As disclosed in note 2, the directors have made judgements and estimates in respect of impairment testing of goodwill. Should these judgements and estimates not occur the resulting goodwill carrying amount may decrease. The sensitivities are as follows:

(a) A reduction in the revenue growth rate of 6% below management expectations for 2018 financial year would result in impairment, with all other assumptions remaining constant.

(b) A reduction in the revenue growth rate to 4% for the 2019 - 2022 financial years would result in impairment, with all other assumptions remaining constant.

(c) A reduction in the gross margin to 48% for the 2019 - 2022 financial years would result in impairment, with all other assumptions remaining constant.

(d) The discount rate would be required to increase to 13.9% before goodwill would need to be impaired, with all other assumptions remaining constant.

Management believes that other reasonable changes in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount of goodwill is based would not cause the cash-generating unit’s carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.
