Review of Operations
Summarised financial result and position
The first half of the financial year result saw significant growth across multiple business divisions, culminating in a record half year of sales of $6.7m, a 37% increase on the comparative result from 31 December 2020. The growth was achieved both organically (23%) and from acquisitions in June 2021 and July 2021.
Business expenditure excluding cost of sales, depreciation and amortisation for the half year period ended 31 December 2021 increased by 23% from $4.3m in the corresponding comparative period to $5.3m. This increase in business expenditure was inclusive of $0.25m relating to the recognition of the interim deferred payment payable on the acquisition of Rapid Thailand as an employee benefit expense. The primary driver for the increase in business expenditure was an increase in salaries and wages with head count increasing by 48% over the past six months as the business expands into new markets and solution offerings.
Jcurve recognised a net profit after tax of $118,500 for the half year period ended 31 December 2021 (2020: $129,310 loss).
Net cash inflows from operating activities for the 6-month period ended 31 December 2021 totalled $0.1m (2020 comparative half year period: $0.7m operating cash inflows).
At 31 December 2021, Jcurve held cash reserves of $4.5m. During 1HY2022 Jcurve paid S$300,000 as the completion payment for the business and assets of Rapid e-Suite Thailand. The 1HY2022 cash outflow and increased level of unearned income over the period reflects the seasonality of the Jcurve business and the increased timeline to complete projects as the mix of larger projects sold continues to grow. The record level of unearned income at $4.1m is expected to strongly flow into statutory profit in 2HY2022 as open projects are delivered.
In addition to holding strong cash reserves, Jcurve continues to remain debt free, providing the opportunity for both further organic growth and growth by acquisition in future periods.

JCurve Solutions Limited
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation of half-year report
The consolidated half year financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, applicable accounting standards including AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting, Accounting Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’). Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’.
The half-year report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of Jcurve as in the full financial report.
It is recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2021 and any public announcements made by Jcurve Solutions Limited and its subsidiaries during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.
The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards.
(b) Significant accounting judgments and key estimates
The preparation of interim financial reports requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Significant judgments made by management in applying Jcurve’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial report for the year ended 30 June 2021. They include:
-
(1) Revenue recognition - Identification of performance obligations;
-
(2) Revenue recognition - Satisfaction of performance obligations;
-
(3) Useful life of intangible assets
-
(4) Impairment of intangibles with indefinite useful lives;
-
(5) Useful life of the quicta Platform;
-
(6) Share-based payment transactions;
-
(7) Recovery of deferred tax assets.
(c) New and amended standards adopted by Jcurve
The Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised accounting standards and interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board for annual reporting periods beginning or after 1 July 2021. The Directors have concluded that there is no impact, material or otherwise for Jcurve from these new and revised accounting standards and interpretations.
(d) Impact of standards issued but not yet applied by Jcurve
Jcurve will adopt the revised accounting standard, AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification of liabilities as current or non current from 1 July 2022.

At the balance date, Jcurve had cash assets of $4,541,410 (30 June 2021: $5,101,831) and a positive working capital position of $1,414,002 (30 June 2021: $1,494,405).

Jcurve has prepared cashflow forecasts based on expected future cash inflows and expected future cash outlays and, on the basis of these cash forecasts, and with reference to the cashflow statement incorporated into these financial statements, in the opinion of the Directors, Jcurve will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due.
NOTE 20: BUSINESS COMBINATION
(a) Current period
Acquisition of the business and assets of Rapid Thailand – Provisional Accounting
On 9 July 2021, JCurve Solutions Asia Pte Ltd, a 100% owned subsidiary of JCurve Solutions Limited, purchased the business assets of Rapid E-Suite Pte Ltd’s Thailand operations, a NetSuite Solution Provider in Thailand. The purchase price was allocated to customer contracts and customer relationships.
The purchase price is to be paid across an initial completion cash payment of S$250,000 (paid on the 9/7/2021 in cash), a milestone completion cash payment of S$50,000 (paid on the 15/9/2021 in cash), an interim deferred payment in February 2022 and a final deferred payment in August 2022. The deferred payments are based on the level of income generated in the Thailand territory for 12 months immediately after the acquisition date and are capped at a deferred payment of S$500,000. The deferred payments required the vendor to sign a consultancy agreement before the completion date with JCurve Solutions Asia. The Asset Purchase Agreement stipulated that the interim and final deferred payments are subject to a clause of forefeiture should the vendor terminate the consultancy agreement before the end of their twelve month consultancy period.
Due diligence costs in respect of the acquisition totalling $4,967 were included in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income for the year ended 30 June 2021. There were no due diligence costs in respect of the acquisition incurred in the six month period ended 31 December 2021.
The assets purchased as part of the acquisition include Rapid E-Suite Pte Ltd’s existing 20 customers in Thailand and the associated business contracts.
The provisionally determined fair values of the assets and liabilities of Rapid E-Suite Thailand acquired as part of the acquisition as at the date of acquisition are as follows:
| NetSuite customer contracts Customer relationships Deferred tax liability Fair value of identifiable net assets Gain on bargain purchase Consideration |
Fair value at acquisition date (S$) Fair value at acquisition date (A$) |

|
| 444,145 441,573 (144,145) (143,310) |
|
| 300,000 298,263 |
Contingent consideration
The interim and final deferred payments are subject to a clause of forefeiture should the vendor terminate the consultancy agreement before the end of their twelve month consultancy period. In accordance with the requirements of AASB 3 paragraph 55A, the deferred payment is remuneration and is included in the employee benefits expense line item in the Statement of Comprehensive income. The deferred payment is expected to be paid in full and is being recognised evenly across the 12 month consultancy period to match the consultancy payments which are being made. Accordingly, for the six months ended 31 December 2021, an employee benefits expense of $250,000 was recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the 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 2021 and its performance for the halfyear ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
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.
