United Networks Limited Directors' report 31 December 2017
The directors present their report, together with the financial statements, on the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as the 'consolidated entity') consisting of United Networks Limited (referred to hereafter as the 'company' or 'parent entity') and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the half-year ended 31 December 2017.
Principal activities
During the financial half-year the principal continuing activities of the consolidated entity consisted of:
-
sale, customisation and integration of IT and telecommunications systems
-
maintenance of IT and telecommunications systems
-
internet based selling of hardware and software products
Dividends
There were no dividends paid, recommended or declared during the current or previous financial half-year.
Review of operations
The loss for the consolidated entity after providing for income tax amounted to $1,015,913 (31 December 2016: $781,868).
The year to date results show revenue down on the same period last year due to the effect of the reduced performance of a key partner as outlined in the December 2017 Quarterly update lodged on 31 January 2018. We have completed our planned development cycle on the new products and have started to commercialise these. We have reacted to current market conditions and have instituted a restructuring of the business to return it to cash flow positive position.
We have implemented a series of cost savings to restructure the cost base in line with current revenue levels whilst still maintaining our SLA’s and current pipeline of customers. We estimate these savings to be approximately $900,000 on an annualised basis. We expect to see the final cost initiatives to be finalised by end of 3Q (this quarter) 2018. As a result, we expect in 2H FY2018 to be operationally cash flow positive.
The focus moving forward is to drive revenue in the Wi-Fi, SIM and Trust platform. Despite having good take up rates of the new products we have learned that United’s business model can be further improved by embedding the price of the service into every policy. The focus right now is to drive a higher volume of connected clients through the TRUST platform and leverage this volume to add transaction related revenues which will boost the returns per client for all parties. The trust platform will continue to add innovative valuable products for partners. The SOS enhancements launched in January with Chubb is now generating revenue as a value-added inclusion for every Chubb policy.
United has made substantial progress over the 6 months to December. The major achievements have included:
-
Implemented a restructure to reduce the operational costs of the business by $900,000 on an annualised basis.
-
Wi-Fi revenue continues to grow quarter on quarter. Supported by the increasing opt in rate over 32%.
-
Significantly improved the gross margin percentage from 44% of sales YTD compared to 26% last year.
-
Increased the average revenue per SIM card to $79 up from $69 last year.
-
Re-engaged with our key partner and launched new Data promotions at the end of December and we have actively planned promotions for the last quarter to focus on the busy European travel.
-
Released the SOS enhancements in December which represents a significant upgrade to the trust platform.
-
Launched Priceline Wi-Fi offers and SIM reseller promotions.
-
Large pipeline with several opportunities in the final stages of being finalised.
-
Launched a new revenue stream in January with Chubb SOS available now in all active markets and partners.

There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during the financial half-year.

United Networks Limited Notes to the financial statements 31 December 2017
Note 7. Non-current assets - intangibles (continued)
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 (12 months to 31 December 2018) 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 12.2% per annum;
(b) Revenue growth is based on management projections for the 12 months to 31 December 2018, 30% increase for 31 December 2019, 25% increase for 31 December 2020 and 10% for 31 December 2021 and 2022;
(c) Budgeted gross margin of 51%;
(d) Operating expenses is based on management projections for the 12 months to 31 December 2018, and 7.5% increases for 31 December 2019 - 2022;
(e) Long-term growth rate of 2.5%.
The discount rate of 12.2% 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 31 December 2018 revenue projection and the subsequent increases through to 2022 is achievable and justified, based on the projected growth of new products and partners 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 $1,461,150.
Sensitivity
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 7% below management expectations for 31 December 2018 would result in impairment, with all other assumptions remaining constant.
(b) A reduction in the gross margin to 48% for 31 December 2019 - 2022 would result in impairment, with all other assumptions remaining constant.
(c) The discount rate would be required to increase to 12.7% 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT
To the members of United Networks Limited
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year consolidated financial report of United Networks Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017, and the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity (or "Group”) comprising United Networks Limited and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half-year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the consolidated half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2017 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of United Networks Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of United Networks Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.
