Business Overview

The Company is based in Sydney and Fall River, Massachusetts, and is a unique and established underwater robotics company. It manufactures commercial/industrial-grade underwater drones (also known as unmanned underwater vehicles or UUVs) and commercial/industrial-grade networked underwater cameras for commercial, high-end consumer and military applications in a wide range of industries, including defence, marine construction, research and aquaculture among others.

The Company is a technology leader being one of very few companies worldwide offering commercially-available hybrid underwater drones, which are capable of both autonomous and remote human operation. This is important to note as the other hybrid vehicles can cost as much as ten times the price of the Aquabotix Hybrid.

The Company owns the intellectual property in a range of unmanned underwater vehicles and underwater camera products and is an early-mover in a nascent industry. With key design and system elements protected by patents the Company continues to build off its flexible and fully digital platform which has resulted in the largest list of integrated accessories available in its category.

Aquabotix’s systems are among the few commercially available and affordable solutions to the underwater requirements of the industries which purchase them. This has led users as diverse as defence agencies, marine construction companies and scientific organisations to have purchased Aquabotix’s products, which generally range between US$1,500 and US$150,000 per unit in price.

A number of key sales were made during the period, most notably to the United States Navy and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS). These sales were significant for their size, which were both in excess of A$100,000 for a single unit, and also for their high degree of accessorisation and customisation. Each of these was won via competitive tender processes providing proof of the Company’s ability to deliver a technology leading product to large-scale clients.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

The Company is led by an experienced Board of Directors. Managing Director and founder of the Company is Mr. Durval Tavares, who has logged over 20 years in the undersea technology sector Naval Undersea Warfare Centre and MIKEL Undersea Warfare Systems. Mr. Tavares also worked at Fidelity Investments for 10 years prior to founding the Company in 2011. The Board of Directors includes Non-Executive Chairman Mr. Peter James, with over 30 years’ experience working with technology companies, both private and public. Notably Mr. James was a long-term director of iiNet Ltd, prior it being acquired by TPG Telecom for A$1.56 billion, and is the current Chairman of nearmap, Macquarie Telecom, Dreamscape Networks and DroneShield. Admiral Jay Cohen (Ret), a former Chief Technology Officer of the US Navy serves as a Non-Executive Director. Since leaving government in 2006, Admiral Cohen serves on corporate boards and is an independent consultant for science and technology in support of U.S. and international defence, homeland security and energy issues and solutions. Mr. Brendan Martin, a Chartered Accountant with over 15 years’ experience in the financial and industrials sectors, serves as an Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer.

Successful Completion of Initial Public Offering

The Company successfully listed its securities on the Australian Securities Exchange on 28 April 2017 in an oversubscribed IPO, under which the Company raised $7 million through the issuance of 35,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.20 per share.

Listing on the ASX represented a significant step forward for the Company, with the proceeds to be used to:

  • build out a distributor network in the United States, Australia and elsewhere internationally;

  • expand its direct sales force, with an increased emphasis on sales outside of the United States;

  • expand its direct sales force, with a particular emphasis on specific industry verticals (e.g. defence, marine construction, aquaculture and others) in which the Company believes its products are particularly relevant globally;

  • expand the executive, sales, operations, research and development and support teams;

  • expand its research and development in order to, among other things:

  • maintain the Group’s products’ competitiveness and “edge”,

  • develop new versions of its existing products as demand evolves,

  • develop new products to meet market demand,

o add product extensions to its existing products, such as sensor add-ons and software subscription products.

  • make an additional investment in intellectual property protection; and

  • establish a multi-faceted publicly-traded underwater robotics company with sufficient resources for quick development and response to market requirements.

Each of these areas is critical to the Company’s ability to execute its strategy.

Sales

  • Under the applicable accounting standard, the Company is required to recognize its revenue when it ships its products to its customers. Many of the Company’s customers, particularly its governmental customers, pay for its products following shipment, typically on a net 60 to 90-day basis.

  • The Company undertook minimal shipments of its products to its customers during the first calendar quarter of 2017, while it finalised its manufacturing processes with its new contract manufacturer. Once the Company finalised these processes, the Company then commenced shipments of commercial quantities of its products later in the half year that is the subject of this report.

  • Consequently, the Company achieved revenues of $287,920 and cash receipts from customers of $274,197 in 1H2017. Half on half, this compares to revenues of $364,459 and cash receipts from customers of $294,573 in the prior comparative period (1H2016)

  • Given this 60 to 90-day lag in cash receipts following shipments and the recognition of accounting revenues, the Company expects to receive most of the cash receipts corresponding to this 1H2017 revenue during 2H2017.

  • The Company notes that whilst the half-on-half revenue is down, its revenue run rate coming out of Q2 2017, being the second half of the period addressed in this report, has doubled relative to Q2 2016 and sits at $280,637. This is a positive development following the Company’s investment in manufacturing processes earlier in the period, as noted above.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

  • The Company has increased the average revenue per product unit from approximately $5,000 to approximately $15,000.

  • The Company continued to grow its sales pipeline through both outbound and inbound channels and is firmly focused on sales growth now that the IPO is complete and appropriate structures are in place.

Principal Activities

The principal activities of the consolidated entity were the development, manufacturing and selling of underwater unmanned vehicles.

Significant Changes in the State of Affairs and Events after the Balance Sheet

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation

These general-purpose interim financial statements for half-year reporting period ended 30 June 2017 have been prepared in accordance with requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting . The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.

This interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of UUV Aquabotix Limited and its controlled entity, Aquabotix Technology Corporation, together the “company”, “consolidated group” or “group”.

This interim financial report does not include all the notes typical of inclusion within an annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance and financial position of the consolidated entity as a full financial report. It is recommended that this interim financial report be considered in conjunction with any other public announcements made by UUV Aquabotix Limited during the following half-year in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the ASX Listing Rules.

These interim financial statements were authorised for issue on 28 July 2017.

Accounting Policies

The Group has considered the implications of new or amended Accounting Standards, but determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material.

a) Going Concern

The directors have, at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements continues to be adopted.

b) Asset Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of the group and the results of all subsidiaries for each applicable period then ended.

The subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of those subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred.

c) Reverse Acquisition Accounting

On 24 February 2017, UUV Aquabotix Limited entered into an Exchange Agreement with the shareholders of Aquabotix Technology Corporation, effective 20 April 2017, acquired 100% of Aquabotix Technology Corporation and subsequently listed on the Australian Stock Exchange on 28 April 2017.

ACN 616 062 072

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Under the accounting standard applicable to business acquisitions, AASB 3: Business Combinations , the acquisition does not meet the definition of a business combination as the net assets of UUV Aquabotix Limited did not represent a business at the date of acquisition. The transaction has therefore been accounted for as a reverse acquisition of UUV Aquabotix Limited by Aquabotix Technology Corporation. The transaction has been accounted for by reference to AAASB 2: Share based payments . Aquabotix Technology Corporation has been identified as the acquirer and UUV Aquabotix Limited the subsidiary.

Included within expenses in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are acquisition and initial public offering related costs totalling $1,073,769, including the options issued to the Joint Lead Managers to the value of $449,160, which is a non-cash item. The costs include advisory, legal, accounting and other professional fees.

The impact of the reverse acquisition on each of the primary statements is as follows:

Consolidated Statement of Financial Position: the 30 June 2017 statement of financial position represents both UUV Aquabotix Limited and Aquabotix Technology Corporation

Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income : the 30 June 2017 statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income comprises 6 months of activities Aquabotix Technology Corporation and the activity from the effective acquisition date of 20 April 2017 for UUV Aquabotix Limited. The 30 June 2016 statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income comprises 6 months of activities of Aquabotix Technology Corporation.

Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity : The 30 June 2017 statement of changes in equity comprises the changes in equity and transactions with equity holders for the 6-month period for Aquabotix Technology Corporation and from the effective acquisition date of 20 April 2017 for UUV Aquabotix Limited. The 30 June 2016 statement of changes in equity comprises the changes in equity and transactions with equity holders for the 6-month period for Aquabotix Technology Corporation.

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows : The 30 June 2017 statement of cash flows comprises the cash transactions for the 6-month period of Aquabotix Technology Corporation and from the effective acquisition date of 20 April 2017 for UUV Aquabotix Limited. The 30 June 2016 statement of cash flows comprises the cash transactions for the 6-month period of Aquabotix Technology Corporation.

d) 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, and bank overdrafts.

e) Accounts receivable

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less provision for impairment. This provision includes amounts that are not considered to be recoverable from debtors. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement no more than 30 days from the date of recognition.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Trade payables and other payables represent the liabilities for goods and services received by the group that remain unpaid at the end of the reporting period. The balance is recognised as a current liability.

g) Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value for the sale of goods and services, excluding, rebates and discounts. Revenue is recognised as follows:

Sales of goods

Sales of goods are recognised when the entity has delivered a product to the customer, which is defined as upon shipment. The recorded revenue is the gross amount of sale, including any fees payable for the transaction. Such fees are included in cost of goods sold.

Sales of services

Sales of services are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered, by reference to completion of the specific transaction assessed on the basis of the actual service provided as a proportion of the total services to be provided.

h) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes all expenses directly attributable to the manufacturing process as well as suitable portions of related production overheads, based on normal operating capacity. Costs of ordinarily interchangeable items are assigned using the average cost method. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less any applicable selling expenses.

i) Leases

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the net asset are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. Associated costs, such as maintenance and insurance, are expensed as incurred.

j) Employee benefits

  • i. Wages, salaries and annual leave

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services rendered up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

ii. Retirement benefits

The group does not maintain a superannuation plan. The group makes fixed percentage contributions for all Australian resident employees to complying third party superannuation funds. The group has a qualified deferred compensation 401(K) plan for US resident employees, under which eligible employees may defer a portion of their salaries subject to the limitations set by the Inland Revenue Services. The group’s legal or constructive obligation is limited to these contributions.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Contributions to these superannuation funds and compensation plans are recognised as an expense as they become payable.

k) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Preferred shares are considered to be anti-dilutive for the earnings per share calculation.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares on the assumption of conversion of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares. Potential ordinary shares are treated as dilutive when, and only when, their conversion to ordinary shares would decrease earnings per share or increase loss per share from continuing operations.

l) Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred.

m) Share-based payments

Equity settled share based compensation benefits are provided to employees through an employee options plan. Further information in relation to this is set out in Note 9.

Equity settled transactions are awards of shares or options over shares that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services. Cash settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of cash is determined by reference to the share price.

The cost of equity settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using the Black-Scholes options pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the vesting period and the underlying volatility of the equity.

n) Segment reporting

Operating segments are presented using the “management approach”, where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. The group only has one operating segment, being the development and subsequent sale of unmanned underwater vehicles.

o) Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost is the fair value of consideration required to acquire and develop the asset and includes the purchase price, and any costs directly attributable to bring the asset to its location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is recognised on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the manufacturing tools and equipment. The following useful lives have been applied:

Furniture and equipment 3–5 years Manufacturing tools 5–7 years Molds 7 years

Page 15

UUV Aquabotix Limited ACN 616 062 072

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Residual value estimates and estimates of useful lives are reviewed and updated as required.

Gains and losses arising on the disposal of manufacturing tools and equipment are determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying value of the assets and are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

p) Foreign currency conversion

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars (AUD), which is also the functional currency of the parent company. Aquabotix Technology Corporation’s functional currency is US dollars due to the current operations being located in the United States of America.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rates). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items at year end exchange rates are recognised in the profit or loss for the period.

On consolidation, assets and liabilities have been translated at the closing rate on the reporting date. Income and expenses have been translated into AUD at the average rate over the reporting period. Any exchange differences are charged or credited to other comprehensive income and recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF

UUV AQUABOTIX LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of UUV Aquabotix Limited which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the 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 company’s financial position as at 30 June 207 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of UUV Aquabotix Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of UUV Aquabotix Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of UUV Aquabotix Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001 .
