Chairman’s Letter
Dear Shareholders,
We are pleased to present the TYMLEZ Annual Report 2022. Through the commitment and hard work of our dedicated team here at TYMLEZ, we were able to achieve several critical milestones, including the formation of eight new strategic partnerships with organisations across the globe, and the signing of our first commercial agreement since the Company’s relaunch in late 2021.
During the year we announced a critical partnership with the HBAR Foundation which had led to an integration of the TYMLEZ Platform with the open-source Guardian on Hedera. This new relationship has helped the Company accelerate its development timeframes, allowing TYMLEZ to focus on commercialising its technology. By actively working with the Hedera sustainability ecosystem, through the contribution of open-source software, TYMLEZ was able to successfully launch its first customer project on Hedera’s Mainnet.
The year also saw a refresh of our Board of Directors. The Board was delighted to welcome Rhys Evans and Eglantine Etiemble as independent non-executive directors. Combined, Rhys and Eglantine bring a wealth of experience, knowledge and relevant skill sets.
Our outlook for 2023 is to continue the development of our key relationships built in 2022 in global markets where there is an increasing interest for our products to enable a wide variety of infrastructure and green energy projects to verify carbon offsets and provide guarantee of origin. With this, we are seeing a significant emerging interest in TYMLEZ’s technology offering in the aviation, maritime, and mining industries.
We are excited about the work we are doing and the meaningful impact that we can make towards a decarbonised future.

New Partnerships
HBAR Foundation
In 2022, TYMLEZ entered into a strategic partnership with the HBAR Foundation, which was accompanied by a US$1 million (approx. AU$1.4 million) grant from the HBAR Foundation’s Sustainability Impact Fund.
This partnership has led to a robust integration of the TYMLEZ Platform with the open-source Guardian on Hedera; leveraging TYMLEZ’s ability to offer verified, encrypted carbon relevant data to develop the world’s most secure, trusted and scalable, carbon reporting solutions for Guarantee of Origin (GO) solutions and Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) ecosystems.
The collaboration with the HBAR Foundation has also allowed TYMLEZ to accelerate the rollout of these solutions with industry partners and governments in both Australia and abroad. There is no doubt that the capability of the TYMLEZ Platform has been enhanced with the support of HBAR Foundation’s grant as well as Hedera’s innovative technology.
During the year, TYMLEZ has been actively working with the Hedera sustainability ecosystem through the contribution of open-source software. Its contributions allow new ecosystem members such as carbon credit marketplaces to more easily join the platform, allowing TYMLEZ to offer seamless integration with carbon markets and exchanges. The culmination of these contributions has allowed TYMLEZ to launch its first customer project on Hedera’s Mainnet, where all carbon emissions reporting is validated by nodes operated by Hedera’s Governing Council members.
TYMLEZ is the first project in the world on the Hedera network utilising the Guardian on the Hedera Mainnet for the creation of carbon emission tokens in production.
Queensland Government
TYMLEZ previously announced a project with the Queensland Government to pilot the TYMLEZ Platform in utilising Behind-The-Meter (BTM) energy monitoring devices capturing site-wide energy usage. This past year, TYMLEZ successfully demonstrated the TYMLEZ Energy Footprint Solution at the Cohort Innovation Space, located in the Gold Coast Health and Knowledge Precinct. This was overwhelmingly acclaimed by the Queensland Government, the main stakeholder. The success of the demonstration is an indicator of the initial effective progress on the key component of the TYMLEZ Platform pilot, which accelerates and promotes the growing collaboration with the Queensland Government.
Throughout the demonstration, TYMLEZ illustrated the strength of the Smart Energy Data Solution which provide a centralised energy footprint from across the site, enabling Cohort to make smarter energy asset investment and operational decisions to reduce costs and achieve key carbon reduction targets via the distributed ledger technology powered TYMLEZ Platform.
The solution developed as part of the pilot also captures key carbon related metrics to produce
10
Highlights | Chairman’s Letter | Leadership Team | Partnerships | General Updates | Finance Updates
an accurate, verified carbon footprint of the site. Going beyond static emission factors, which are updated on a yearly basis, TYMLEZ has developed a robust pipeline for ingesting the local grid emission factor from AEMO, where live data is pulled every 15 minutes of all generators to determine the mix of renewable energy on the grid, ultimately creating a real-time carbon emissions factor. This allows the Government and Cohort to track their actual carbon footprint and to implement strategies to reduce their output or to generate offsets.
The TYMLEZ Platform also delivers solar production forecasting through the use of solar radiation data, combined with geo-spacial mapping of the roof-space, overlayed with information on the expected generation capabilities of a specific solar panel type. This allows stakeholders to determine solar requirements and to analyse the effects solar systems will have on the net carbon output of the site, before a single panel is installed.
The demonstration allowed the Queensland Government to acquire a comprehensive understanding of the strengths of the TYMLEZ Platform and how it can be incorporated into other initiatives around the State.
Lloyd’s Register and Safetytech Accelerator
After a competitive selection process involving some 30 other parties, TYMLEZ was selected to collaborate with Lloyd’s Register Maritime Decarbonisation Hub and Safetytech Accelerator to conduct a commercial feasibility study to determine the best process for assuring the greenhouse gas footprint of low-carbon fuels such as green hydrogen and green ammonia for maritime use.
This study was successfully completed in Q1, 2023 and Safetytech Accelerator published a whitepaper, with TYMLEZ featuring in a webinar from Safetytech. Through projects like this, TYMLEZ hopes to actively contribute towards the development of an industry standard in the certification of green hydrogen and green ammonia for the maritime industry.
The project included a six-month set term and TYMLEZ was paid a fee by Safetytech Accelerator to cover costs associated with the project including resources and materials. Any potential future projects regarding this matter will be covered under a separate agreement.

Magnum Mining and Exploration
TYMLEZ entered into a partnership with Magnum Mining and Exploration Limited (Magnum), to provide guarantee of origin for green pig iron. This is the Company’s first commercial agreement since its relaunch in late 2021.
Green steel is becoming increasingly important as end-users throughout the globe seek to decarbonise their operations across their supply chains. Green pig iron is a core component to the production of green steel and the TYMLEZ Platform will transparently and verifiably generate investment grade guarantee of origin certificates for each tonne of green pig iron produced by Magnum.
This agreement signals the commencement of a long-term partnership between TYMLEZ and Magnum. It focuses on the delivery of a digital twin of Magnum’s green pig iron facility in Nevada, USA, which will allow Magnum to provide verification to its customers for each tonne of green pig iron, as well as providing real-time carbon reporting for operational decision making and reporting. Payment to TYMLEZ will be through a cost-recovery fee for service, including costs for development and hosting of the solution.
Aerospace Malaysia Innovation Centre
In late 2022, TYMLEZ entered into a MOU with Aerospace Malaysia Innovation Centre (AMIC) to define a scope for the guarantee of origin for sustainable aviation fuel.
The goal of AMIC is to bring together the world’s leading solutions providers to deliver new and innovative solutions to the aviation industry, notably through working with its lead partners Airbus, Rolls Royce, and Composite Technology Research Malaysia.
Sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF, is set to be the key driver in the decarbonisation of the aviation sector - by transforming sustainable feedstocks into fuel to power aircrafts across the globe. According to fuel producers, it could potentially reduce overall carbon emissions by 80% or more. The aviation industry currently contributes 1.9% of all global greenhouse emissions, a figure which is expected to increase as air travel continues to grow.
TYMLEZ’s Guarantee of Origin solution enables sustainable aviation fuel producers to accurately report on the carbon emissions of their products from across the full value chain by integrating directly with IoT devices and sensors from across plants and vehicles, which enables trust and helps eliminate the risk of greenwashing.
XBourse
TYMLEZ entered into a partnership with XB Market Ventures (XBourse) for the development of one of the world’s first regulated carbon marketplaces.
Under the MOU, TYMLEZ will enable XBourse Marketplace participants to have pre-trade verification of the carbon credit provenance via the immutable digital record of the credit certification process and the examination of the underlying credit characteristics. This process is currently fragmented and essentially paper and legacy technology bound. Digitising the process will remove significant frictional barriers to adoption and increase transparency.
12
Highlights | Chairman’s Letter | Leadership Team | Partnerships | General Updates | Finance Updates
Using the TYMLEZ digital verification solution and the XBourse digital trading processes will accelerate investor participation in nascent nature-based solution marketplaces. Globally, business consultancy, McKinsey, estimates that over US$100 trillion will need to be spent to achieve 2050 net zero. By comparison, the market capitalization of global markets that report to the World Federation of Exchanges is currently around US$100 trillion. Therefore, the market opportunity for regulated, exchange-traded nature-based and decarbonization solutions is significant.
XBourse intends to further enhance the Carbon Credit Marketplace by developing tokenised instruments (Nature Based Tokens) that will encourage direct investments in underlying naturebased carbon abatement projects. The marketplace could be expanded to include biodiversity rights, water rights, green hydrogen guarantees of origin and other credits derived from naturebased solutions.
Tolam Earth
TYMLEZ has partnered with Tolam Earth to collaborate on a first-of-its-kind project that will provide end-to-end assurance over the creation of carbon credits for sale on a distributed ledger enabled marketplace.
Tolam Earth has developed a carbon marketplace to deliver transparent, digitally sourced and auditable carbon credits from around the world, all built on the same Hedera distributed ledger network which TYMLEZ uses for its solutions. Tolam Earth’s marketplace combats many of the issues currently facing legacy marketplaces, primarily the lack of trust and transparency in some trading systems. Tolam Earth is a subsidiary of Object Computing, a leader in technology consultancy and development.
Through its partnership with TYMLEZ, Tolam Earth is looking to create one of the world’s most trusted carbon marketplaces by providing unrivalled trust through the sale of transparent and auditable carbon credits which will be generated by the TYMLEZ Digital Measure Reporting and Verification (dDMRV) platform. With both TYMLEZ and Tolam Earth building upon the Hedera network, one of the world’s most used enterprise-grade public distributed ledger networks, transaction costs will be minimal, allowing for investors of all sizes to purchase carbon credits from the marketplace.
TYMLEZ’s partnership with Tolam Earth is a leap forward in carbon market transparency and trust. By providing only high-quality carbon credits generated by the TYMLEZ Platform, institutional investors can trust in the carbon credits which they are purchasing.
Natural Carbon
TYMLEZ has partnered with Natural Carbon and natural asset management platform Cecil on a project to create tokens backed by ACCUs generated by the ‘Olkola Ajin – Olkola Fire Project’ – a project managed by the Olkola Aboriginal Corporation. The goal of the project is to add an additional layer of trust to ACCUs through transparent tokenisation on the TYMLEZ Platform, increasing carbon market opportunities and innovation for these credits.
TYMLEZ has developed a world-leading offset tokenisation solution that will be used to generate tokens in accordance with the Clean Energy Regulator’s carbon farming legislation. Operating on

Highlights | Chairman’s Letter | Leadership Team | Partnerships | General Updates | Finance Updates
the Hedera network, the solution creates a token representing each ACCU, allowing them to be recorded on the distributed ledger in a secure and immutable fashion. This process increases the transparency of ACCUs, decreases market friction and reduces transaction costs. The project is set to showcase the value that can be unlocked through trusted tokenisation and will focus on the end-to-end lifecycle of a tokenised carbon credit from creation and sale to retirement.
The goal of Natural Carbon is to scale global investment into community-led nature-based solutions that remove carbon, increase natural capital, and improve local livelihoods in a fair way. Through its partnerships, Natural Carbon is bringing together leaders in sustainability focused solutions that will allow First Nations and local communities to maximise the value from their carbon assets through product innovation and opening new carbon markets.

Remuneration report (audited)
The remuneration report, which has been audited, outlines the Director and executive remuneration arrangements for the Group, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations.
Key management personnel are those having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Group directly or indirectly, including all directors.
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
The performance of the Group depends upon the quality of its Directors and Executives. To prosper, the Group must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled Directors and Executives. To that end, the Group embodies the following principles in its remuneration framework:
-
Provide competitive rewards to attract high calibre executives;
-
Focus on creating sustained shareholder value;
-
Placing a portion of executive remuneration at risk, dependent upon meeting predetermined performance benchmarks; and
-
Differentiation of individual rewards commensurate with contribution to overall results and according to individual accountability, performance and potential.
The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Key Management Personnel ("KMP") for the Group is based on the following:
-
The remuneration policy is to be developed and approved by the Board after professional advice is sought from independent external consultants (where applicable);
-
All executive KMP receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, fringe benefits and performance incentives, where appropriate;
-
Performance incentives (in the form of a cash bonus) are generally only paid once predetermined key performance indicators (KPIs) have been met;

Tymlez Group Limited
Directors' Report For the Year Ended 31 December 2022
Remuneration report (audited) (continued)
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (continued)
-
Apart from those detailed in this report no other share based/options incentives have been offered to KMP during this reporting financial year; and
-
The Board, which also serves as the remuneration committee, reviews the remuneration packages annually by reference to the Group's performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors.
All remuneration paid to KMP is valued at the cost to the Group and expensed.
KMP or closely related parties of KMP are prohibited from entering hedge arrangements that would have the effect of limiting the risk exposure relating to their remuneration. In addition, the Board's remuneration policy prohibits Directors and KMP from using the Group's shares as collateral in any financial transaction.
Engagement of remuneration consultants
During the year, the Group did not engage any remuneration consultants.
Remuneration structure
The structure of Non-Executive, Executive Director and Senior Management remuneration is separate and distinct.
A. Non-Executive Director Remuneration
The Board's policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-Executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders.
Each Director receives a fee for being a Director of the Group. In addition, the director's service agreements also has provisions to allow the Board, in its absolute discretion and as it considers appropriate, at any time during the Director's term in office, to grant or issue to the Director (or his nominee), options or shares:
-
a) with or without vesting conditions;
-
b) for such amount of cash consideration, which may be NIL cash consideration; and
-
c) otherwise on such terms and conditions (including, where appropriate, exercise and expiry date).
The grant of share based payments to Directors is always subject to the Company obtaining any applicable regulatory and/or shareholder approvals, as required under the ASX Listing Rules and/or the Corporations Act 2001 .
B. Senior Management and Executive Director Remuneration
The Group aims to reward Executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Group to:
-
Reward Executives for the Group, business unit and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks;
-
Align the interests of Executives with those of shareholders;

Tymlez Group Limited
Directors' Report For the Year Ended 31 December 2022
Remuneration report (audited) (continued)
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (continued)
-
Link reward with the strategic goals and performance of the Group;
-
Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards; and
-
Executive remuneration is designed to support the Group's reward philosophies and to underpin the Group's growth strategy. The program comprises the following available components:
-
Fixed remuneration component; and
-
Variable remuneration component including cash bonuses paid, as well as options issued under the Employee Share Options Plan (ESOP).
Fixed Remuneration
Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation and non-monetary benefits, are reviewed annually by the CEO based on individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of the Group and comparable market remunerations.
Variable Remuneration
The performance of KMP is measured against criteria agreed annually with each Executive. All bonuses and incentives must be linked to predetermined performance criteria. The policy is designed to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance results leading to long-term growth in shareholder wealth.
The objective of the Short-Term Incentive ("STI") program is to link the achievement of the Group's operational targets with the remuneration received by the executives charged with meeting those targets. The total potential STI available is set at a level to provide sufficient incentive to achieve the operational targets and such that the cost to the Group is reasonable.
Actual STI payments granted depend on the extent to which specific operating targets are met. The operational targets consist of a number of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) covering both financial and non-financial measures of performance.
On an annual basis, the individual performance of each executive is rated and taken into account when determining the amount, if any, of the short-term incentive pool allocated to each executive. The aggregate of annual STI payments available for executives across the Group are usually delivered in the form of a cash bonus.
The long-term incentives ('LTI') include long service leave and share-based payments. Options are awarded to executives over a period of two to three years based on long-term incentive measures. These include market capitalisation measures, share price measures over a specific period, and achievement of continuous employment hurdle period of service. The Board has reviewed the long-term equity-linked performance incentives specifically for executives during the year ended 31 December 2022.
Relationship between remuneration policy and company performance
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, directors and executives. The Group aims to align management remuneration to the strategic and business objectives and the creation of shareholder wealth. However, these are not necessarily consistent with the measures used in determining the variable amounts of remuneration to be awarded to KMPs. As a consequence, there may not always be a direct correlation between the statutory key performance measures and the variable remuneration awarded.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2022
The consolidated financial report covers Tymlez Group Limited and its controlled entities ('the Group'). Tymlez Group Limited is a for-profit Company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
Each of the entities within the Group prepare their financial statements based on the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.
The financial report was authorised for issue by the Directors on 31 March 2023.
Comparatives are consistent with prior years, unless otherwise stated.
1 Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001.
These financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The financial statements, except for the cash flow information, have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
Significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and are consistent with prior reporting periods unless otherwise stated.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business, for a period of at least 12 months from the date the financial report is authorised for issue.
As at 31 December 2022, the Group has a net asset position of $1,940,493 (2021: $3,990,403) and its current assets exceed its current liabilities by $1,901,538 (2021: $4,141,023). During the financial year, the Group had cash outflows from operating activities of $3,776,354 (2021: $3,050,783) and a net loss from operating activities of $4,506,896 (2021: $3,646,443).
The Group has prepared a cash flow forecast for the period ending 30 September 2024, which indicates that, without further fundraising, the Group may have insufficient funds to meet its expenditure commitments and to support its current level of corporate overheads. It therefore would need to raise additional funds in order to fund its growth and to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date of this financial report.
To address the future additional funding requirements of the Group, since 31 December 2022, the directors have undertaken the following initiatives:
-
Continue to monitor and control the Group’s ongoing working capital requirements and expenditure commitments;
-
Consider appropriate action to raise further capital; and
-
Continue management’s focus on maintaining an appropriate level of corporate overheads in line with the Group’s available cash resources.

Tymlez Group Limited
ABN 37 622 817 421
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2022
1 Basis of Preparation (continued)
Going concern (continued)
Based on past experience, the directors are confident that they will be able to complete the capital raising initiatives that will provide the Group with sufficient funding to meet its minimum expenditure commitments and support the planned level of overhead expenditures, and therefore, determine that it is appropriate to prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis.
In the event that the Group is unable to successfully complete the fundraising referred to above and implement the stated strategies, a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts shown in the financial report.
The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.
2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis for consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial position and performance of controlled entities from the date on which control is obtained until the date that control is lost.
Intragroup assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cashflows relating to transactions between entities in the Group have been eliminated in full for the purpose of these financial statements.
Appropriate adjustments have been made to a controlled entity’s financial position, performance and cash flows where the accounting policies used by that entity were different from those adopted by the consolidated entity. All controlled entities have a December financial year end.
A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 22 to the financial statements.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the parent has control. Control is established when the parent 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 relevant activities of the entity.
(b) Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method which requires an acquiring entity to be identified in all cases, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control. The acquisition date under this method is the date that the acquiring entity obtains control over the acquired entity.
For transactions meeting the definition of "transactions between entities under common control", the Group accounts for the assets and liabilities of the entities acquired at their pre-combination carrying amount without fair value uplift. The accounting is applied on the basis that there has been no substantive economic change. No goodwill is recognised as part of the transaction, instead, any difference between the cost of transaction and the carrying value of the net asset acquired has been recorded in equity. The acquisition of Tymlez Holding B.V. in the 2017 financial period met the definition of a transaction between entities under common control as per AASB 3 and no fair value uplift was applied.

2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(b) Business combinations (continued)
The fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired are recognised in the consolidated financial statements at the acquisition date.
Goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase may arise on the acquisition date, this is calculated by comparing the consideration transferred and the amount of non-controlling interest in the acquiree with the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. Where consideration is greater than the net assets acquired, the excess is recorded as goodwill. Where the net assets acquired are greater than the consideration, the measurement basis of the net assets are reassessed and then a gain from bargain purchase recognised in profit or loss.
All acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred except for costs to issue debt or equity securities.
Any contingent consideration which forms part of the combination is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity then it is not remeasured unless it forms part of provisional accounting adjustment and the settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise subsequent changes in the value of the contingent consideration liability are measured through profit or loss.
(c) Income Tax
The tax expense/benefit recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income comprises of current income tax expense plus deferred tax expense.
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable (recoverable) in respect of the taxable profit (loss) for the year and is measured at the amount expected to be paid to (recovered from) the taxation authorities, using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences which are determined by comparing the carrying amounts of tax bases of assets and liabilities to the carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements.
Deferred tax is not provided for the following:
-
The initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).
-
Taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.
-
Temporary differences related to investment in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities 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 and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and losses can be utilised.

(c) Income Tax (continued)
Current and deferred tax is recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or loss for the period except where the tax arises from a transaction which is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity, in which case the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity respectively.
(d) Leases
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a lease exists - i.e. does the contract convey the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
This involves an assessment of whether:
-
The contract involves the use of an identified asset - this may be explicitly or implicitly identified within the agreement. If the supplier has a substantive substitution right then there is no identified asset.
-
The Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset throughout the period of use.
-
The Group has the right to direct the use of the asset i.e. decision making rights in relation to changing how and for what purpose the asset is used.
Lessee accounting
The non-lease components included in the lease agreement have been separated and are recognised as an expense as incurred.
Right-of-use asset
At the lease commencement, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and associated lease liability for the lease term. The lease term includes extension periods where the Group believes it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.
The right-of-use asset is measured using the cost model where cost on initial recognition comprises of the lease liability, initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments, estimated cost of removal and restoration less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the lease term on a straight line basis and assessed for impairment in accordance with the impairment of assets accounting policy.
Lease liability
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments at the commencement of the lease. The discount rate is the rate implicit in the lease, however where this cannot be readily determined then the Group's incremental borrowing rate is used.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The lease liability is remeasured whether there is a lease modification, change in estimate of the lease term or index upon which the lease payments are based (e.g. CPI) or a change in the Group's assessment of lease term.

(d) Leases (continued)
Lease liability (continued)
Where the lease liability is remeasured, the right-of-use asset is adjusted to reflect the remeasurement or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
Adoption of short term leases or low value asset exception
Exceptions to lease accounting
The Group has elected to apply the exceptions to lease accounting for both short-term leases (i.e. leases with a term of less than or equal to 12 months) and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognises the payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(e) Revenue and other income
Revenue from contracts with customers
The core principle of AASB 15 is that revenue is recognised on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognised by applying a five-step model as follows:
-
Identify the contract with the customer;
-
Identify the performance obligations;
-
Determine the transaction price;
-
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations;
-
Recognise revenue as and when control of the performance obligations is transferred.
Generally the timing of the payment for sale of goods and rendering of services corresponds closely to the timing of satisfaction of the performance obligations, however where there is a difference, it will result in the recognition of a receivable, contract asset or contract liability.
None of the revenue streams of the Group have any significant financing terms as there is less than 12 months between receipt of funds and satisfaction of performance obligations.

2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(e) Revenue and other income (continued)
Specific revenue streams
The revenue recognition policies for the principal revenue streams of the Group are:
Licence fees
Revenue from this stream is recognised in the accounting period in which the licences are issued. Licences sold on a subscription basis is earned over the subscription period as performance obligations are satisfied over time. Revenue from selling perpetual licences where the Group receives an upfront fee is apportioned between sale of licence income which recognised upfront and software upgrade over a period of time. The transaction price allocated to these software upgrades is recognised as a contract liability at the time of the initial sale transaction is released on a straight-line basis.
Rendering of services
Revenue from providing such services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.
Government grant income
Government grants are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all grant conditions will be met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant to the costs they are compensating.
Hedera grant income - Digital assets
The Hedera grant income contract provides for payment in the grantor’s digital asset, HBAR.The digital asset’s fair value is determined by referencing publicly available pricing data from digital asset exchanges at the applicable date of recognition.
Interest income
Interest income is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
Other income
Other income is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
(f) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset.
All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(g) Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST.
Cash flows in the consolidated statement of cash flows are included on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows.
(h) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of 3 months or less, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Bank overdrafts also form part of cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows and are presented within current liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial position.
(i) Financial instruments
Financial instruments are recognised initially on the date that the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
On initial recognition, all financial instruments are measured at fair value plus transaction costs (except for instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss where transaction costs are expensed as incurred).
Financial assets
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
Classification
On initial recognition, the Group classifies its financial assets into the following category, those measured at:
- amortised cost
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets.
Amortised cost
Assets measured at amortised cost are financial assets where:
-
the business model is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
the contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(i) Financial instruments (continued)
Financial assets (continued)
The Group's financial assets measured at amortised cost comprise trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statement of financial position.
Subsequent to initial recognition, these assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method less provision for impairment.
Interest income, foreign exchange gains or losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment of financial assets
Impairment of financial assets is recognised on an expected credit loss (ECL) basis for the following assets:
- financial assets measured at amortised cost
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial assets has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, 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 including forward looking information.
The Group uses the presumption that an asset which is more than 30 days past due has seen a significant increase in credit risk.
The Group uses the presumption that a financial asset is in default when:
-
the other party is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse to the Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held); or
-
the financial assets is more than 90 days past due.
Credit losses are measured as the present value of the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows expected to be received. This is applied using a probability weighted approach.
Trade receivables
Impairment of trade receivables has been determined using the simplified approach in AASB 9 which uses an estimation of lifetime expected credit losses. The Group has determined the probability of non-payment of the receivable and multiplied this by the amount of the expected loss arising from default.
The amount of the impairment is recorded in a separate allowance account with the loss being recognised in finance expense. Once the receivable is determined to be uncollectible then the gross carrying amount is written off against the associated allowance.

(i) Financial instruments (continued)
Financial assets (continued)
Where the Group renegotiates the terms of trade receivables due from certain customers, the new expected cash flows are discounted at the original effective interest rate and any resulting difference to the carrying value is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
The Group measures all financial liabilities initially at fair value less transaction costs, subsequently financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
The financial liabilities of the Group comprise trade payables and borrowings.
The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the consolidated statement of financial position, net of transaction costs.
(j) Digital assets - Cryptocurrency
Digital assets are assets such as HBAR, which use an open-source software-based online system where transactions are recorded in a public ledger (blockchain) using its own unit of account. Digital Assets are an emerging technology and asset class, and as such there are no specific accounting standards that cover the treatment, rather digital assets are assessed by applying existing accounting standards in conjunction with guidance released by the accounting standard setting bodies such as the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
The Group considers the digital assets it holds meet the recognition criteria of intangible assets (identifiable, controllable, and capable of generating future economic benefits) and therefore have accounted for these assets in accordance with AASB 138 Intangible Assets .
The Group measures digital assets at cost less accumulated impairment as it is determined that there is no active market for the digital assets the Group currently holds. Digital assets classified as intangible assets are considered to be indefinite life intangible assets given their nature.
Digital assets are derecognised when the Group disposes of the asset or when the Group otherwise loses control of and therefore, access to the economic benefits associated with ownership of the digital asset.
(k) Impairment of non-financial assets
At the end of each reporting period the Group determines whether there is any evidence of impairment for its non-financial assets.
Where an indicator exists and regardless for goodwill, indefinite life intangible assets and intangible assets not yet available for use, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated.
Where assets do not operate independently of other assets, the recoverable amount of the relevant cashgenerating unit (CGU) is estimated.

Tymlez Group Limited
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2022
2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(k) Impairment of non-financial assets (continued)
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and the value in use. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or cashgenerating unit.
Where the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Reversal indicators are considered in subsequent periods for all assets which have suffered an impairment loss.
(l) Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Provision is made for the Group's obligation for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages and salaries. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled, inclusive of on-costs.
The Group's obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages and salaries are recognised as a part of current employee benefits in the consolidated statement of financial position.
Defined contribution schemes
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods in which services are provided by employees.
(m) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit/(loss) attributable to owners of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(n) Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options which vest immediately are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(o) Equity-settled compensation
Employee options
Equity-settled compensation benefits are provided to employees via the Employee Share Option Plan. Information relating to this plan is set out in Note 20.
The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using the Black-Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options or shares granted, this expense takes in account any market performance conditions and the impact of any non-vesting conditions but ignores the effect of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions.
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.
Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account when considering the number of options expected to vest. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of options which are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. Revisions to the prior period estimate are recognised in profit or loss and equity.
Share-based payments to non-employees
Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amounts are recognised in the option reserve and consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income respectively. The fair value of options is determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.
(p) Foreign currency transactions and balances
Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the spot rate on the date of the transaction.
At the end of the reporting period:
-
Foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate;
-
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and
-
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value are translated using the rate at the date when fair value was determined.

(p) Foreign currency transactions and balances (continued)
Transaction and balances (continued)
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition or in prior reporting periods are recognised through profit or loss, except where they relate to an item of other comprehensive income or whether they are deferred in equity as qualifying hedges.
Group companies
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group's presentation currency are translated as follows:
-
assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;
-
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period where the average rate approximates the rate at the date of the transaction; and
-
retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences arising on translation of any net investment in foreign entities are transferred directly to the Group's foreign currency translation reserve in the consolidated statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period in which the operation is disposed.
(q) Adoption of new and revised accounting standards
The Group has adopted all standards which became effective for the first time at 1 January 2022, the adoption of these standards has not caused any material adjustments to the reported financial position, performance or cash flow of the Group.
(r) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations for application in future periods
The AASB has issued new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods. The directors have decided against early adoption of these Standards, but does not expect the adoption of these standards to have any impact on the reported position or performance of the Group.

3 Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The directors make estimates and judgements during the preparation of these consolidated financial statements regarding assumptions about current and future events affecting transactions and balances.
These estimates and judgements are based on the best information available at the time of preparing the financial statements, however as additional information is known then the actual results may differ from the estimates.
The significant estimates and judgements made have been described below.
Key estimates - share based payments
Equity-settled share awards are recognised as an expense based on their fair value at date of grant. The fair value of equity-settled share options is estimated through the use of option valuation models – which require inputs such as the risk-free interest rate, expected dividends, expected volatility and the expected option life – and is expensed over the vesting period.
Some of the inputs used, such as the expected option life, are not market observable and are based on estimates derived from available data, such as employee exercise behaviour. The models utilised, such as the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the Monte-Carlo Simulation, are intended to value options traded in active markets. The share options issued by the Group, however, have a number of features that make them incomparable to such traded options. Using different input estimates or models could produce different option values, which would result in the recognition of a higher or lower expense. Refer to Note 20 for further details.
Key judgement - Accounting treatment for digital assets (cryptocurrency)
Management note that the topic of digital assets and the accounting for digital assets continues to be considered by the IASB and continues to monitor new comments and interpretations released by the IASB and other standard setters from around the world.
In line with this, the Group has considered its position for the year ended 31 December 2022 and has determined that the Group’s digital assets fall into the intangible asset method (the method noted by the IASB in its most recent deliberations).
Management has assessed that, under the intangible asset method and due to the determination that there is a lack of an active market, the measurement of the digital assets at cost less any impairment is appropriate under the respective accounting standards.
On initial recognition, the fair value of digital assets is determined by reference to the quoted price in United States Dollars (USD) on the respective transaction dates from the Coin Market Cap website (www.coinmarketcap.com) at closing Coordinated Universal Time. The Group considers this fair value to be a Level 2 input on the basis that there is not an active market with sufficient volume.

There were no movements in intangible assets during the year ended 31 December 2021.
(b) Impairment of digital assets (cryptocurrency)
The Group entered into a HBAR Grant and Rewards Agreement with The HBAR Foundation on 21 March 2022 for a period of 4 years. The total value of the grant is approximately USD1,000,000 payable in HBAR (cryptocurrency native to the Hedera Network) with an initial payment of approximately USD100,000 (paid in the equivalent HBAR on date of transaction being 4 May 2022).
The Group acquires HBAR (digital asset) in various separate transactions. Each individual acquisition of HBAR held by the Group represents a unit of account for impairment testing purposes and the Group maintains the carrying values of each acquisition in order to perform impairment testing.
The fair value of the HBAR is determined with reference to the HBAR-USD (US Dollar) rate on the respective transaction dates from the Coin Market Cap website (www.coinmarketcap.com) at closing Coordinated Universal Time. In the event that the fair value of HBAR falls below its carrying value, an impairment is recorded. During the year ended 31 December 2022, an impairment charge of $90,174 was recognised in profit and loss.
(c) Restrictions on use of digital assets
As part of the agreement with The HBAR Foundation, the Group agrees that it will not transfer, or cause to be transferred, any HBARs received under the agreement out of the original payment account, or otherwise transfer, exchange, distribute or sell those HBARs for fiat currency or a different cryptocurrency, unless mutually agreed to transfer as fiat currency, for a period of 6 months from the granting of the HBARs. Exceptions to this requirement are:
-
transfer from one TYMLEZ account to another TYMLEZ account;
-
transfer to pay transaction fees required to make use of the Hedera Network.

17 Reserves (continued)
(a) Foreign currency translation reserve
Exchange differences arising on translation of the foreign controlled entity are recognised in other comprehensive income - foreign currency translation reserve. The cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss when the net investment is disposed of.
(b) Option reserve
This reserve records the cumulative value of employee service received for the issue of share options. When the option is exercised the amount in the share option reserve is transferred to share capital.
(c) Deferred consideration shares reserve
The deferred consideration shares reserve records the equity contingent consideration that forms part of the purchase consideration of a business combination or common control transaction. This amount is not remeasured and the settlement is accounted for within equity. During the year ended 31 December 2022, the deferred consideration shares reserve was transferred to accumulated losses as the period for the achievement of the respective milestones had expired and none of the performance milestones had been met to warrant the issue of the deferred consideration shares.
(d) Common control reserve
The common control reserve records any difference between the cost of the transaction and the carrying value of the net assets acquired in a transaction between entities under common control.

23 Operating Segments
Segment information
Identification of reportable segments
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (chief operating decision maker) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.
Management has determined that the Group has two reportable segments, namely, Australia and Europe. The Group is managed primarily on the basis of geographical segments as the operations of the Group in each of these geographic areas have different risk profiles and environment in which the business operates in. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.
Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
(a) Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated below, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief operating decision maker with respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group.
(b) Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of economic value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
(c) Segment liabilities
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables and certain direct borrowings.

Objectives, policies and processes
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s financial risk management framework. This includes the development of policies covering specific areas such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and the use of derivatives.
Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities.
The day-to-day risk management is carried out by the Group’s finance function under policies and objectives which have been approved by the Board of Directors. Management has been delegated the authority for designing and implementing processes which follow the objectives and policies. This includes monitoring the levels of exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risk and assessment of market forecasts for interest rate and foreign exchange movements.
The Board of Directors receives monthly reports which provide details of the effectiveness of the processes and policies in place.
It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the Group's policy that no trading of financial instruments shall be undertaken. The main risks arising from holding these financial instruments are foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Group is not exposed to price risk. Mitigation strategies for specific risks faced are described below:

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the Group’s management of working capital and the finance charges and principal repayments on its debt instruments. It is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due.
The Group’s policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due. The Group maintains cash and marketable securities to meet its liquidity requirements for up to 30-day periods.
The Group manages its liquidity needs by carefully monitoring scheduled debt servicing payments for long-term financial liabilities as well as cash-outflows due in day-to-day business.
Liquidity needs are monitored in various time bands, on a day-to-day and week-to-week basis, as well as on the basis of a rolling 30-day projection. Long-term liquidity needs for a 180-day and a 360-day period are identified monthly.
At the reporting date, these reports indicate that the Group expects to have sufficient liquid resources to meet its obligations under all reasonably expected circumstances.
The table below analyse the Group's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non-derivative financial liabilities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.
The Group's liabilities have contractual maturities which are summarised below:

Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group.
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposure to wholesale customers, including outstanding receivables.
The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The utilisation of credit limits by customers is regularly monitored by line management. Customers who subsequently fail to meet their credit terms are required to make purchases on a prepayment basis until creditworthiness can be re-established.
As a result of the type of service provided by the Group, trade receivables may consist of customers, spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable. As at 31 December 2022 and 31 December 2021, the Group did not have any trade receivables.
Management considers that all the financial assets that are not impaired for each of the reporting dates under review are of good credit quality, including those that are past due.
The credit risk for liquid funds and other short-term financial assets is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counterparty or group of counterparties.
The Group applies the AASB 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables.
To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. As at 31 December 2022 and 31 December 2021, the Group did not have any trade receivables, accordingly, expected credit losses were not assessed.
The Group does not hold any financial assets with terms that have been renegotiated, but which would otherwise be past due or impaired.
The other classes of receivables do not contain impaired assets.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.

(i) Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as surplus funds are invested at floating rates. Borrowings are issued at fixed rates and may expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. As at 31 December 2022, the only borrowings the Group has relate to the insurance premium funding and the loan from the Netherlands government (refer to Note 13 for further details) (31 December 2021: insurance premium funding and the loan from the Netherlands government).
The Group's policy is to minimise cash flow interest rate risk exposures on long-term financing. Longer-term borrowings are therefore usually at fixed rates. At the reporting date, the Group is exposed to changes in market interest rates through its bank deposits, which are subject to variable interest rates.

2021 $ 4,960,227 |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| 2,702,596 | 4,960,227 |
- (ii) Foreign exchange risk
Exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Group holds financial instruments which are other than the AUD functional currency of the Group.
Exposures to currency exchange rates arise from the Group's overseas operations, hence sales and purchases, which are primarily denominated in Euro and USD.
The Group does not hedge nor apply hedge accounting. The implications of this decision are that unrealised foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit and loss in the period in which they occur.
Generally, the Group‘s risk management procedures distinguish short-term foreign currency cash flows (due within 6 months) from longer-term cash flows. Where the amounts to be paid and received in a specific currency are expected to largely offset one another, no further hedging activity is undertaken.
Foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities, translated into Australian Dollars at the closing rate, are as follows:
| 2022 Nominal amounts Financial assets Financial liabilities Short-term exposure 2021 Nominal amounts Financial assets Financial liabilities Short-term exposure |

Net Fair Values
Fair value estimation
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.
The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables is a reasonable approximation of their fair values due to the short-term nature of trade receivables and payables. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments. None of the Group's financial instruments are recognised at fair value post initial recognition.
25 Key Management Personnel Remuneration
Any person(s) having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the entity, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of that entity are considered key management personnel.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Tymlez Group Limited
REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL REPORT
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Tymlez Group Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2022, 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:
-
(a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2022 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
-
(b) 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 Company, 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.
Material Uncertainty Regarding Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1 Going Concern in the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $4,506,896 during the year ended 31 December 2022 and had operating cash outflows of $3,776,354. As stated in Note 1 Going Concern , these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1 Going Concern , indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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.
We have not identified any additional matters, aside from the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Regarding Going Concern section above, to be key audit matters requiring communication in our report .
Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2022, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s or Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company or the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
