Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Chairman’s Letter

A letter from our Chairman

Dear shareholders and friends,

I am pleased to provide you with Identitii’s FY21 Annual Report.

Over the past twelve months we have enjoyed stability and alignment on our Board, meeting frequently with our CEO and key leadership team members to discuss key issues and continue reviewing the effectiveness of our strategy. In addition to ensuring good governance and effective return on capital, the Board’s primary focus is our customer acquisition and revenue growth plans, which I am confident will accelerate in the year ahead. We are also mindful of our other value drivers, such as our U.S. Patent, our Payble joint venture with CommBank’s x15ventures, and several other emerging projects.

We also welcomed Tim Phillipps to the Board of Directors this year, following his 45-year career with Deloitte, ASIC and the Victoria Police, where he specialised in regulatory technology and fighting financial crime. Tim has been a fantastic addition to the Board, leveraging his industry knowledge, experience and network to help the team evolve our strategy and connect us with senior decision makers within the financial services industry. Tim’s appointment also addressed the need for further independent governance, in addition to our Co-founder and CEO who are both heavily invested in the business.

The Board is proud of the achievements our team delivered this year, although we are certainly mindful that our acquisition of new customers was below expectation. That said, we are optimistic about our strategy, confident there is significant and genuine demand for our products, and fully supportive of our CEO’s ability to execute successfully in the year ahead.

Thank you for your ongoing support. I look forward to a successful year ahead.

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

A letter from our CEO

A letter from our CEO

Dear shareholders and friends,

There are many reasons to be proud of this past year, as we made tremendous advances in some less visible foundations for success, that will deliver benefit this year and beyond. Of particular note, I am immensely proud of the team and the culture we have built, and increasingly confident in both our evolving strategy and its execution. That said, there is little doubt we fell short of our new customer aspirations and that shareholders and the market were hoping for more.

Identitii’s incredible network of supporters, both shareholders and observers alike, is one of our key brand assets that we consistently leverage to secure productive meetings with prospective customers. This traction, together with our growing brand awareness and recognition within the industry, continue to inspire and reassure everyone at Identitii that we will genuinely deliver our vision of a trusted and transparent global financial services industry.

Evolving for success

Whilst we have relished significant interest in our technology from some of the biggest global brands in the industry, both here in Australia and in other key global markets, the industry’s lengthy and complicated buying journey remains our biggest challenge. This is something that has a significant impact on us, yet we have very little control over.

Perhaps the biggest lesson we have learned this year, is that working hard to close these large deals can take a very long time, consume significant capital and frustrate shareholders in the process. Whilst winning these deals should, and will, always form part of our core revenue growth strategy – we’ve recognised the need to look for alternative, additional revenue streams to help us scale.

This is why we were so excited to recently announced the launch of a Software-as-a-Service version of the Identitii platform, and the first customer in an all-new segment to sign with us. Novatii (ASX:NOV) are the first of many new customers that will help us grow revenue in a more linear fashion, to stabilise market sentiment during periods between the larger wins.

The right culture

The right strategy

Identitii is a growing RegTech provider solving the problem that, whilst money moves around the world with relative ease today, there is growing demand from government regulators and customers to see more granular information about individual financial transactions. For most of the global financial services industry, the use of multiple legacy systems, that create and store data in different formats and locations, makes it incredibly difficult to meet this demand.

Globally, we are witnessing significant growth in fines, reputational damage and jail-time for executives, for non-compliance with growing regulatory requirements. This increasing scrutiny, predominantly on the legacy technology used by most of the industry, is driving significant interest in the technology Identitii is developing. Our strategy to enhance what is already there enables our customers to quickly meet the demands of regulators and customers alike.

“Culture eats strategy for breakfast” – said consultant and writer Peter Drucker, implying that a powerful and empowering culture is a surer route to organisational success, than a great strategy. I’m hopeful that at Identitii we have both.

We survey the temperature of our team every three weeks, and more than 90% of our team have responded over the past three months, meaning they believe giving feedback is a worthwhile exercise because we will do something with it. And we certainly do.

To provide a little more insight into our culture, our two highest scoring questions are “Taking everything into account, I would say that (Identitii) is a great place to work” at 83% (last three months) average and “Identitii inspires me to do my best work every day” at 81% average. We are right to be very proud of these key cultural indicators.

A letter from our CEO

Annual Report FY21

The right people

Over the past twelve months, Identitii has implemented a scalable organisational design, that focuses heavily on attracting and engaging customers, to ensure there is real, validated market demand for the products we build. Identifying and creating the right roles, from sales and marketing, to product and technology, and information security, is critical to ensure operational efficiency and the best possible return on shareholder capital.

With the right structure in place, the Company has been able to focus on attracting some fantastic talent, recruiting leaders from within the banking industry to help us better understand our prospective customers, and software engineers from successful technology companies to help us stay ahead of emerging trends. I am supremely confident in the team we have built and their ability to deliver our strategy in the year ahead.

Summarising the year

I am very proud of the long list of achievements the team delivered this year, increasingly optimistic about our strategy given the validation our technology is receiving in the market, and confident that all translates into real value in the year ahead. I am also conscious this past year delivered less customer growth than was expected of us and hope I have provided enough insights into our awareness of that, but more importantly into what we are already doing differently this year as a result.

I hope you enjoy reading our annual report, and take this opportunity to say thank you for your continued support of the Board, the Executive and our Team.

Regards, John Rayment Chief Executive Officer

Principal activities

The principal activities of the Group during the financial year were business development, marketing and research and development activities, as well as further development of Identitii’s Overlay+ platform. During the year, Identitii announced a revised RegTech strategy which allowed it to focus on delivering growth across five key areas:

  • Deliver : Focus on servicing existing clients including HSBC, Mastercard, HomeSend and, as of July 2021, Novatti;

  • Land: Leverage AUSTRAC’s public discussion of regulatory non-compliance to drive sales of Overlay+ Reporting;

  • Expand: Grow reporting deals to include Request use cases (correspondent bank and remediation) once contracts are agreed;

  • Innovate: continuously improve the core Overlay+ platform through ongoing innovation and product updates; and

  • Monetise: Maximise other previous technology investments, which no longer fit the Company’s core RegTech strategy.

Identitii operates in a growing market, with global spending on RegTech solutions predicted to reach US$130 billion by 2025 ( Juniper Research, ‘RegTech: Market Opportunities, Challenges and Forecasts 2021-2025’ ). Increasing enforcement of regulatory obligations by governments around the world, including AUSTRAC who levied $2 billion in fines for non-compliance in the past two years alone, rising financial crime, the appearance of new players in the financial services industry and accelerated adoption of digital technologies have combined to push regulated entities to find new, technology-based ways to simplify and automate how they conduct financial crime compliance.

Identitii is well placed to take advantage of this trend with its Overlay+ platform that makes it easier for regulated entities to process payments and ensure compliance. Identitii gives financial services businesses a single view of their data, solving the problem that the information needed to process and report financial transactions is often incomplete, inaccurate, or even missing, holding up payments and increasing the risk of non-compliance.

  • On 1 April 2021, the Group announced the renewal of its original 2017 contract with HSBC for a further three years. The contract is worth up to $2.0 million over the term of the agreement. The global Master Framework Agreement was also renewed allowing Identitii to licence its technology to any HSBC business globally.

  • On 12 April 2021, it was announced x15ventures had invested $1.0 million in Payble for a minority stake. The funds will be used to accelerate Payble’s growth plans.

  • On 4 May 2021, Identitii announced that Joe Higginson had joined as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO). Joe is the former Head of Payments for Investec Bank and has also held the position of Global Head of Payments at Travelex.

  • On 27 May 2021, Timothy Phillipps joined the board as an independent non-executive Director.

Review of financial conditions

The Group reported revenue from contracts with customers of $1,364,197 for the year ended 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $941,592), an increase of 45% from the prior year. The Group reported a net loss after tax of $5,873,875 for the year ended 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $7,074,479) which was substantially driven by salary and employee benefit expenses and expenditure on research and development (R&D) related activities.

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Directors Report

Review of operations (continued)

The Group held $33,039 of borrowings and leases at 30 June 2021, had a positive net current asset balance of $4,843,582 and a positive overall net asset balance of $5,002,124.

The Group had $4,489,311 of cash and cash equivalents on hand at 30 June 2021 and reported a net cash outflow from operating activities of $4,759,614 during the year ended 30 June 2021.

Significant changes in the state of affairs

During the year, Identitii Limited founded new subsidiary Payble Pty Ltd (Payble) in conjunction with Elliott Donazzan. Subsequent to incorporation, CBA New Digital Businesses Pty Ltd (x15ventures) invested $1.0 million in Payble to acquire a minority ownership stake and to assist in accelerating its growth plans. Identitii Limited holds a 60% majority shareholding as at 30 June 2021.

In the opinion of the Directors there were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group that occurred during the year ended 30 June 2021, other than noted above.

Dividends

No dividends were declared or paid by the Company during the financial year ended 30 June 2021.

Events subsequent to reporting date

Following the results of a General Meeting held on 6 July 2021 the Company issued 285,714 shares at $0.07 per share to John Rayment in full and final settlement of his loan. Furthermore, 1,000,000 share options with an exercise price of $0.25 were issued to both Steven James and Nicholas Armstrong in their capacity as NonExecutive Directors of the Company. These share options vest over three years pending continued employment and expire on 8 July 2024.

On 30 July 2021, the Group announced it had signed a three-year licence agreement with Novatti Group Limited worth $0.2 million. The licence is for the Group’s new Software as a Service (SaaS) version of Overlay+.

Other than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors, to affect significantly in future financial years the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group.

Likely developments

The Group will continue to develop the Overlay+ platform and continue to sign new customers and grow its pipeline of partners. This will require further investment in product and business development and marketing.

Further information about likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this report because disclosure of the information would likely result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.

Environmental regulation

The Group’s operations are not regulated by any significant law of the Commonwealth or of a State or Territory relating to the environment.

Directors Report

Audited Remuneration Report

The Directors present the Remuneration Report (the Report) for the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) for the year ended 30 June 2021. This Report forms part of the Directors’ Report and has been audited in accordance with Section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. The Report details the remuneration arrangements for the Group’s Key Management Personnel (KMP):

  • Executive Directors and other KMP

  • Non-Executive Directors

KMP are those persons who, directly or indirectly, have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Group.

1. Principles of remuneration

The performance of the Group depends upon the quality and commitment of the Directors and Executives. The philosophy of the Directors in determining remuneration levels is to:

  • set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees;

  • link executive rewards to shareholder value creation; and

  • establish appropriate hurdles for variable executive remuneration.

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee reviews and make recommendations to the Board on the Group’s remuneration policies, procedures and practices. It also defines the individual packages offered to Executive Directors and KMP, for recommendation to the Board.

The Board may consider engaging an independent remuneration consultant to advise the Board on appropriate levels of remuneration relative to its industry peer group.

In accordance with Corporate Governance best practice (Recommendation 8.2), the structure of NonExecutive Director and Executive remuneration is separate and distinct as follows:

a) Non-Executive Directors

Fixed and variable remuneration

The Board seeks to set Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration at a level that provides the Group with the ability to attract and retain Directors of a high calibre whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders.

The ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of Non-Executive Directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. This amount has been fixed by the Company at $250,000. The amount of aggregate remuneration and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice from shareholders and takes into account the fees paid to Non-Executive Directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process.

Non-Executive Directors’ base fees cover all main board activities and membership of all committees; however, they do not receive performance-related compensation and are not provided with retirement benefits apart from statutory superannuation. Non-executive Directors are entitled to participate in the Equity Incentive Plan.

b) Executives and Executive Director remuneration

Remuneration for Executives and Executive Directors consists of fixed and variable remuneration only.

Fixed remuneration

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Directors. The process consists of a review of relevant comparative remuneration in the employment market and within the Group. The Group may engage an independent remuneration consultant to advise the Board on appropriate levels of remuneration for the Group’s Executive Directors relative to its industry peer group.

Variable remuneration

Variable remuneration is provided in the form of share options under the Group Equity Incentive Plan (EIP). Under the EIP, one share option entitles the holder to one share in the Company subject to vesting conditions. Executives and Executive Directors vesting conditions are linked to continued years of service and may be linked to performance hurdles. The Board have the discretion to settle share options with a cash equivalent payment. Participants in the EIP will not pay any consideration for the grant of the share option unless determined otherwise. Share options will not be listed and may not be transferred, assigned or otherwise dealt with unless approved by the Directors. If the executive’s employment terminates before the share options have vested, the share options will lapse, unless approved otherwise by the Board.

2. Details of remuneration

Details of the remuneration of the KMP as defined in AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures are set out in Table 1 which follows.

The KMP of the Group have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Group. The KMP make or participate in making decisions that affect the whole, or a substantial part, of the business or who have the capacity to affect significantly the Group’s financial standing.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Reporting entity

Identitii Limited (the Company) is a Company incorporated and domiciled in Australia and whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX:ID8). The registered office and principal place of business is Level 2, 129 Cathedral Street, Woolloomooloo, NSW 2011.

These consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Identitii Limited as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Identitii Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the Group.

The Group is a for profit entity and is primarily involved in developing and licensing enterprise software for regulated entities. Its main product Overlay+ is a platform that helps reduce regulatory risk, without replacing technology systems.

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 26 August 2021.

2. Basis of preparation

These consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Details of the Group’s accounting policies are included in Note 6.

Going concern

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business and assumes the Group will have sufficient cash resources to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable for at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial report.

The statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 30 June 2021 reflects a loss for the year of $5,873,875 and total cash outflows from operating activities of $4,759,614.

The Directors believe that it is reasonably foreseeable that the Company will continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial report after considering the following:

  • The Group has $4,489,311 in cash and cash equivalents as at the balance date;

  • The Group successfully raised $8.9 million in funding during the year ended 30 June 2021 and is evaluating plans to secure additional funding later in the calendar year;

  • The Group has the ability to scale back a significant portion of its expenditure if required; and

  • the Company signed a Master Service Agreement with Mastercard during the year, extended its contract with HSBC for a further three years and has other potential customer engagements in the pipeline.

Consequently, the Directors have concluded there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will continue to be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable for a period of no less than 12 months from the date of signing this financial report and that the preparation of the 30 June 2021 financial report on a going concern basis is appropriate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3. Functional and presentation currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the Group’s functional currency. The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 and in accordance with that instrument, amounts in the consolidated financial statements and directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest Australian dollar, unless otherwise stated.

4. Use of judgements and estimates

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors, including expectations of future events that management believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised prospectively.

a) Judgements

Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

COVID-19 pandemic – judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic has had, or may have, on the Group based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the services offered, customers, staffing and geographic regions in which the Group operates; and

Note 8 – revenue recognition: whether revenue from licence fees is recognised over time or at a point in time.

b) Assumptions and estimation uncertainties

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties at 30 June 2021 that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year are as follows:

The measurement and realisation of the R&D tax incentive: determining the percentage of expenditure that is directly attributable to eligible R&D activities when measuring the R&D tax incentive. Uncertainty exists over the quantum and timing of realisation of the R&D tax incentive claim until such time as the claim has been examined and accepted by the Australian Tax Office (ATO);

Note 11 – recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can and cannot be utilised; and

Note 29 – share based payments: key assumptions in determining the valuation of share based payment transactions on grant date. Key assumptions include expected expiry dates, volatility rates and likelihood of vesting.

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

5. New or amended accounting standards and interpretations

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted in preparing these consolidated financial statements.

A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2021 and earlier application is permitted; however, the Group has not early adopted the new or amended standards in preparing these consolidated financial statements.

The following amended standards and interpretations are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements:

  • AASB 2021-03 Amendments to Covid-19 Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021;

  • AASB 2020-8 Amendments to Interest Rate Benchmark Reform;

  • AASB 2014-10 Amendments to Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture;

  • AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current;

  • AASB 2020-3 Amendments to Annual Improvements 2018-2020 and Other Amendments;

  • AASB 2021-2 Amendments to Disclosure of Accounting Policies and Definition of Accounting Estimates;

  • AASB 17 Insurance Contracts.

6. Significant accounting policies

a) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Identitii Limited as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Identitii Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the Group.

Subsidiaries are those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.

Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the Group. Losses incurred by the subsidiaries are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

33

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The Group recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.

b) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the Group at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences are generally recognised in profit or loss and presented within general expenses.

c) Revenue from contracts with customers

Information about the Group’s accounting policies relating to contracts with customers is provided in Note 8.

d) Research and development tax incentive

The R&D tax incentive encourages companies to engage in R&D benefiting Australia, by providing a tax offset (or a cash refund if in a tax loss position) for eligible R&D activities. The Group recognises the R&D tax incentive in profit or loss when the Group incurs the eligible R&D expenditure. The R&D tax incentive income is presented on a gross basis and is not netted off against the R&D costs to which it relates.

e) Government grants

The Group recognises an unconditional government grant in profit or loss when the grant becomes receivable. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the periods in which the expenses are recognised. The grants are recognised on a gross basis in income and are not netted off against the expenditure to which it relates.

Refer to Note 9 for further details.

f) Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for ‑ ‑ the amount expected to be paid under short term cash bonus or profit sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

34

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Other long term employee benefits

‑ The Group’s net obligation in respect of long term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Re-measurements are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Termination benefits

Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Group recognises costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date, they are discounted.

Share based payment arrangements

Equity-settled share based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services.

The cost is measured at fair value on grant date using a suitable option pricing model such as Black Scholes, Binomial or Monte Carlo. The grant date fair value of equity settled share based payment arrangements is recognised as an expense, with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period of the award. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share based payment awards with nonvesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true up for differences between expected and actual outcomes. Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied.

g) Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity.

Current tax

Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of tax payable or receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related to incomes taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax also includes any tax liability arising from dividends.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

35

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Deferred tax is not recognised for:

  • temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss; and

  • temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Future taxable profits are determined based on the reversal of relevant taxable temporary differences. If the amount of taxable temporary differences is insufficient to recognise a deferred tax asset in full, the future taxable profits, adjusted for reversals of existing temporary differences, are considered, based on the business plans for individual subsidiaries in the Group. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.

Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and recognised to the extent that is has become probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.

h) Current and non-current classification

Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.

An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the Group’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the Group’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.

i) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

36

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

j) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 45 days.

The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue.

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.

k) Contract assets

Contract assets are recognised when the Group has transferred goods or services to the customer but where the Group is yet to establish an unconditional right to consideration. Contract assets are treated as financial assets for impairment purposes.

l) Property, plant and equipment

Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit or loss.

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives and is generally recognised in profit or loss.

The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment for current and comparative periods are as follows:


follows:
2021
2020
Right-of-use asset
3 years
6 years


Office fit out
3 years
6 years
Computer equipment
3 years
3 years

Office equipment
5 years
5 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.

37

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

m) Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period.

The estimated useful lives of intangible assets for current and comparative periods are as follows:

2021
2020
Acquired software
1 year
1 year

n) Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature, they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

o) Contract liabilities

Contract liabilities represent the Group’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer and are recognised when a customer pays consideration, or when the Group recognises a receivable to reflect its unconditional right to consideration (whichever is earlier) before the Group has transferred the goods or services to the customer.

p) Borrowings

Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

q) Leases

The Group adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019 applying the modified retrospective approach, under which the cumulative effect of initial application was recognised in retained earnings at 1 July 2019. Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets, right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position.

For classification within the statement of cash flows, the interest and the principal portion of the lease payments are disclosed in financing activities.

For lessor accounting, the standard did not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases.

38

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Right-of-use assets

A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the Group expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.

Lease liabilities

A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised as the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate.

Lease payments comprise of:

  • fixed payments less any lease incentive receivables;

  • variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate;

  • amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees; and

  • the exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties.

The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.

Short-term leases and low-value assets

The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for shortterm leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed on a straight line basis to profit or loss over the lease term.

r) Financial instruments

Recognition and initial measurement

Trade receivables are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price.

39

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Classification and subsequent measurement

Financial assets

On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortised cost; fair value in other comprehensive income (FVOCI) – debt investment; FVOCI – equity investment; or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model.

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as FVTPL:

  • It is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets primarily to collect contractual cash flows; and

  • Its contractual term gives rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI test).

The Group does not have any debt or equity investments that are classified and measured at FVOCI. Therefore, all financial assets that do not meet the classification requirements for amortised cost are classified and measured at FVTPL.

Financial assets – assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest

For the purpose of this assessment, principal is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial recognition. Interest is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs, as well as profit margin.

In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Group considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making this assessment, the Group considers:

  • contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash flows;

  • terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate;

  • prepayment and extension features; and

  • terms that limit the Group’s claim to cash flows from specified assets.

A prepayment feature is consistent with the solely payments of principal and interest criterion if the prepayment amount substantially represents unpaid amounts of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, which may include reasonable additional compensation for early termination of the contract. Additionally, for a financial asset acquired at a discount or premium to its contractual par amount, a feature that permits or requires prepayment at an amount that substantially represents the contractual par amount plus accrued contractual interest is treated as consistent with this criterion if the fair value of the prepayment feature is insignificant at initial recognition.

Financial assets – subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Type of financial asset
Financial assets at FVTPL
These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and
losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in profit
or loss.
Financial assets at
amortised cost
These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment
losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and
impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on
derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities – classification, subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expenses, are recognised in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset. The Group also derecognises a financial asset when its terms are modified and the cash flows associated with the modified asset are substantially different, in which case a new financial asset based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value.

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire. The Group also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to offset the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

s) Impairment

A. Non-derivative financial assets

Financial instruments and contract assets

  • The Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses (ECLs) on:

  • financial assets measured at amortised cost; and

  • contract assets

The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, except for the following, which are measured at 12-month ECLs:

  • financial assets (excluding trade receivables) that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date; and

  • other financial assets and bank balances for which credit risk (ie. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.

Loss allowances for trade receivables and contract assets are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs and are calculated using a provision matrix under the simplified approach.

When determining whether credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and includes forward looking information and the use of macro-economic factors.

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased if it is more than 30 days past due.

The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when:

  • the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions such as realising security (if held); or

  • the financial asset is more that 90 days past due.

Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.

Measurement of ECLs

ECLs are a probability weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (ie. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the asset.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

ECLs for trade receivables and contract assets are calculated using a provision matrix based on historical default rates adjusted for current and forecast credit conditions including other business, financial and economic factors such as geographical region and external credit rating.

Credit impaired financial assets

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost are credit impaired. A financial asset is credit impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit impaired includes the following:

  • significant financial difficulty of the borrower;

  • a breach of contract such as default or being more that 90 days past due;

  • restructuring of an amount due to the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise; or

  • it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation.

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets.

There have been no changes in estimation techniques or significant assumptions made during the year.

Write off

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Group has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For corporate customers, the Group individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write off based on whether there is reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group expects no significant recovery for the amount written off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

B. Nonfinancial assets

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or cash generating units (CGUs).

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. They are allocated to reduce the carrying amount of assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

6. Significant accounting policies (continued)

t) Share capital

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity. Income tax relating to transaction costs of an equity transaction is accounted for in accordance with AASB 112.

u) Goods and services tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

v) Comparative figures

Comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year where required by Accounting Standards or as a result of changes in Accounting Policy.

w) Fair value

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the most advantageous market to which the Group has access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk. A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

When one is available, the Group measures fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. If there is no quoted price in an active market, then the Group uses valuation techniques that maximise the use of relevant observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique incorporates all of the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction.

The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is normally the transaction price ie. the fair value of the consideration given or received.

If the Group determines that the fair value on initial recognition differs from the transaction price and the fair value is evidenced neither by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability nor based on a valuation technique for which any unobservable inputs are judged to be insignificant in relation to the measurement, then the financial instrument is initially measured at fair value, adjusted to defer the difference between the fair value on initial recognition and the transaction price. Subsequently, that difference is recognised in profit or loss on an appropriate basis over the life of the instrument but no later than when the valuation is wholly supported by observable market data or the transaction is closed out.

7. Operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the Group

  • that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenue and expenses relating to transactions with the Group’s other components), and

  • whose operating results are reviewed regularly by the Group’s chief operating decision maker for the purpose of making decisions about allocating resources to the segment and assessing its performance.

The Group currently has one reportable segment, which develops and licenses enterprise software for regulated entities. The revenues and profits generated by the Group’s operating segment and segment assets are summarised below:

8. Revenue

The Group generates revenue primarily from the licensing of enterprise software and the provision of professional and maintenance services to its customers.

a) Performance obligations and revenue recognition policies

Under its contracts, the Group grants a licence to the customer for the use of its software. The contract will specify the term of the licence, the jurisdictions in which the licence may be utilised and protocols to be followed to extend the licence beyond the agreed licence term.

The contracts also facilitate the provision of certain software, training, maintenance, customisation and configuration or other services from the Group in consideration for the payment of fees. The customer is granted, for the term of each contract, a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable and royalty-free licence to use the software in a specific use case. The Group retains all rights, title and interest in the intellectual property of the software.

46

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

8. Revenue (continued)

The Group is currently recognising revenue under these contracts for licence fees, maintenance fees, usage fees and professional services, each regarded as a separate performance obligation. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract and is recognised when the Group transfers control over the product or service to the customer. Charges are determined by a number of factors including transaction volume, customisation requirements, ongoing support and maintenance and new feature releases. Pricing changes for each renewal term are to be mutually agreed in writing.

The following table provides information about the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations in its contracts with customers including the related revenue recognition policies.

Product and
services
Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations
Licence fees
The contracts require the Group to undertake maintenance and software
enhancement activities throughout the licence period that significantly affects
the intellectual property (IP) to which the customers have rights. The nature of
the Group’s performance obligation in granting a licence is regarded as a right
to access the IP and thus the Group recognises licence fee revenue over time.
Licence fee revenue is recognised in equal monthly instalments from the date
the licence is first transferred and for the term of the contract. The licence fee
is a fixed annual fee as specified in the contract.
There remains $627,502 in relation to contracted licence fees for which no
revenue or deferred revenue has been recognised as the performance
obligations have not been met as at 30 June 2021.
Maintenance fees
Maintenance (software, equipment and hosted services maintenance) is to be
provided to customers on an ongoing basis from the date the licence is first
transferred and throughout the term of the contract.
The maintenance fee is a fixed annual fee as specified in the contract.
Under AASB 15, the performance obligation to provide maintenance services
is first met upon transfer of the licence and is ongoing throughout the term of
the contract. The total maintenance fee revenue to be billed under the contract
is recognised in equal monthly instalments over time from the date the licence
is first transferred.
There remains $55,364 in relation to contracted maintenance fees for which no
revenue or deferred revenue has been recognised as the performance
obligations have not been met as at 30 June 2021.

Product and
services
Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations
Usage fees
Usage fee revenue is determined by the number of successful transactions (as
defined in the contract) and is based on information provided to the Group by
the customer. Usage fees are recognised only when the later of the usage
occurs and the licence fee obligation has been satisfied. Usage fees are
variable fees and may be subject to an annual cap as specified in the contract.
The Group recognises usage fee revenue over time based on when the usage
occurs.
Professional services
(including setup,
training and other
support costs)
Professional services include setup, training and support costs as well as
individual customisation projects that are separate and distinct performance
obligations.
The Group recognises revenue at a point in time based on time and materials
incurred in delivering the product and services to its customers as per the terms
and prices specified in the contract. Invoices are generated on confirmation of
product and service delivery and revenue is recognised at that point in time.
There remains $341,709 in relation to contracted professional services for
which no revenue or deferred revenue has been recognised as the
performance obligations have not been met as at 30 June 2021.

Where revenue is billed in advance, a contract liability is recognised and amortised over the period of the invoice. Where revenue is billed in arrears, a contract asset is recognised at the time of revenue recognition and transferred to trade receivables when the invoice is generated.

Warranties, returns and refunds

The warranty period will run from the licence start date and over a specified period of time. Under the warranty period the Group undertakes that the product and services supplied are of satisfactory quality and fit for purpose, free from defects in design, operate in accordance with the contract and that appropriate master copies are maintained by the Group.

In the event of an unresolved third party intellectual property rights claim, customers may elect to return all deliverables under the contract and be refunded in full for all charges paid by the customer to date. Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. Due to the absence of any third party intellectual property rights claims during the current and prior period, no adjustment has been made to revenue recognised during the period for expected returns.

Customers may terminate or partially terminate the contract by written notice to the Group. Customers shall be entitled to a pro-rata refund of fees paid in advance of the termination date unless termination by the customer is for no reason. Due to the absence of any such written notices to the Group during the current and prior period, no adjustment has been made to revenue recognised during the period for expected refunds on termination.

The Export Market Development Grant (EMDG) scheme is a key Australian Government financial assistance program that encourages small to medium sized Australian businesses to develop export markets by granting funding to cover eligible export expenditure, up to a maximum claim of $150,000. The Group recognises the EMDG in profit or loss when the application is successful and the Group receives an unconditional right to the income.

COVID-19 related grants were temporary subsidies for businesses affected by COVID-19 and consisted mostly of the JobKeeper and Cash Flow Boost payment schemes. Both schemes have closed as at the date of this report.

  • Under the JobKeeper scheme, eligible employers could apply to receive up to $1,500 per eligible employee per fortnight. The Group recognised the JobKeeper payments in profit or loss when the related salaries were paid to eligible employees. The Company was eligible for JobKeeper up to 31 December 2020.

  • Under the Cash Flow Boost payment scheme, eligible businesses who employed staff received a cash flow boost in the form of a credit when lodging their activity statements. This was to cover the tax withheld from salaries paid to employees for the period covered by the activity statement. The Group recognised the Cash Flow Boost in profit or loss when the activity statement was lodged.

10. Reassessment of lease terms

a) Leases

The Group leases office space in Australia over an initial term of three years with an option to extend for a further three years. The lease has an escalation clause to account for inflation over time and, on renewal, the terms of the lease will be renegotiated. On initial application of AASB 16: Leases on 1 July 2019, the lease liability and right-of-use asset in relation to this office lease were calculated using a six year lease term as it was assumed the option to extend would be exercised.

Due to a change in circumstances, the Group has decided not to exercise its option to extend the lease. The current lease will expire in August 2021, following which it will default to a monthly term with either party giving 3 months’ notice to terminate. This reassessment of the lease term has resulted in a remeasurement of the lease liability and right-of-use asset with the following impact on the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021:

30 June 2021
$
Decrease in lease liability
459,651
Decrease in right-of-use asset
(387,646)
Gain on lease modification
(72,005)

b) Office fit out

In line with the above, the Group reassessed the useful life of the office fit out asset from six years to three years to align with the end of the current lease in August 2021. This is treated as a change in accounting estimate and has resulted in an acceleration of office fit out depreciation in the current year of $184,454 as follows:


$184,454 as follows:
30 June 2021

The Group reassessed its office lease term from six to three years during the year, resulting in a decrease in carrying amount of the right-of-use asset by $387,646. Similarly, the Group reassessed the useful life of the office fit out asset from six years to three years resulting in an acceleration of depreciation in the current year. Refer to Note 10 for further details.

The Group leases office space in Hong Kong under agreement for six months with an option to extend. As this lease is short-term and of low value, it has been expensed as incurred during the year and not capitalised to right-of-use assets.

23. Financial instruments – fair values and risk management

i. Accounting classifications and fair values

The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities is a reasonable approximation of fair value due to their short term nature.

ii. Financial risk management

The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:

  • credit risk (see ii (b))

  • liquidity risk (see ii (c))

  • foreign currency risk (see ii (d))

a) Risk management framework

The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. The Board of Directors has established the Audit and Risk Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies.

The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities.

b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers. The carrying amount of financial assets and contract assets represents the maximum credit exposure. Impairment losses on financial assets and contract assets recognised in profit or loss are as follows:

30 June 2021
$
30 June 2020
$
Increase / (decrease) in impairment loss on trade
receivables and contract assets arising from contracts
with customers
2,530
(2,291)

Trade receivables and contract assets

The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base including the default risk associated with the industry and country in which the customers operate.

The Group limits its exposure to credit risk from trade receivables by establishing a maximum payment period of 45 days for corporate customers.

Expected credit loss assessment for corporate customers

The Group uses a provision matrix to measure ECLs of trade receivables from corporate customers, which comprise of a small number of large balances.

63

Identitii Limited Annual Report FY21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

23. Financial instruments – fair values and risk management (continued)

The Group is still in its early stages of revenue generation with a small customer base and therefore doesn’t have extensive historical information on which to base its loss rates. Its loss rates are management’s best estimate based on industry comparatives and will be updated at every reporting period to reflect current and forecast credit conditions including other business, financial and economic factors. Loss rates are determined separately for each credit risk grade, based on external credit rating definitions from a reputable credit rating agency. To date no customer balances have been written off or credit impaired at the reporting date.

The following tables provides information about the exposure to credit risk and ECLs for trade receivables and contract assets for corporate customers as at 30 June 2021.

Cash and cash equivalents and other receivables

The Group held cash and cash equivalents of $4,489,311 at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $1,411,309). The majority of cash and cash equivalents are held with financial institution counterparties, which are rated A- to AA, based on credit agency ratings. The Group considers its cash and cash equivalents to have low credit risk based on the external credit ratings of the counterparties.

The Group held other receivables of $153,831 at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $186,343). The Group considers its other receivables to have low credit risk based on historical data available, the reputation of the counterparties and the systematic ease with which the receivables are recoverable.

The Group did not recognise an impairment allowance for cash and cash equivalents and other receivables during the current and prior year under review.

c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate, but manageable, borrowing facilities are maintained. The Group also monitors the level of expected cash inflows on trade and other receivables together with expected cash outflows on trade and other payables.

d) Foreign currency risk

The Group is exposed to transactional foreign currency risk to the extent that there is a mismatch between the currencies in which sales, purchases, receivables and borrowings are denominated and the respective functional currencies of the Group companies. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk is concentrated primarily in trade receivables which are invoiced in United States Dollars (USD). As USD sales increase there will be a natural hedge in place as majority of Group expenditure is in Australian Dollars (AUD). Other foreign currency risk is not material at present.

Sensitivity analysis

If foreign exchange rates were to increase / decrease by 10 per cent from rates used to determine fair values as at the end of the reporting period, assuming all other variables that might impact fair value remain constant, then the impact on profit or loss for the year would be as follows:

Impact on profit after tax

30 June 2020
$
10% increase in USD/AUD exchange rate
7,239

Opinion

www.rsm.com.au

We have audited the financial report of Identitii Limited (the Company) and its controlled entity (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.

In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

  • (i) giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2021 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and

  • (ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of the Group, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

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 How our audit addressed this matter
Share-based payments– Refer to Note 29 in the financial statements.
The Group recognised a share-based payment
expense of $806,766 in the statement of profit or loss
for the year ended 30 June 2021 under various share
based payment arrangements.
Management has accounted for these arrangements
in accordance with AASB 2 Share-Based Payments.
Accounting for share-based payments and share
option reserves are considered as key audit matters
due to the following:

Accounting for share-based payments is
non-routine and complex.

There is significant judgement in relation to
the inputs into the valuation models,
including the likelihood of vesting conditions
and performance hurdles being met, and the
appropriate valuation methodology to apply.

Management engaged a third party expert
for the valuation process.
Our audit procedures in relation to the share-based
payments included the following:

Making enquiries of management about the
nature of and the rationale behind the
instruments issued;

Reviewing the terms and conditions of the
instruments issued;

Reviewing managements expert's valuation
report, giving due consideration to their
independence and capability;

Reviewing the valuation methodology to
ensure it is in compliance with AASB 2;

Verifying the mathematical accuracy of the
underlying model;

Reviewing the inputs to the valuation model for
reasonableness;

Critically evaluating the key assumptions used,
considering the market, the grant date share
price and current date share price, the
expected volatility in the share price, the
vesting period, and the number of instruments
expected to vest;

Recalculating the value of the share-based
payment expense to be recognised and the
reserve balance, for accuracy, factoring in any
cancellations, modifications, expiry, or vesting;
and

Reviewing the adequacy of the relevant
disclosures, including the disclosures in
respect of judgements made, in the financial
statements.

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.
