CHAIRMAN’S REVIEW
Dear Shareholders,
It is an honour and a privilege to be able to write this letter as Chairman and CEO of ParaZero Limited (ParaZero or the Company) (ASX: PRZ) which was listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in June 2018.
ParaZero is a leader in drone safety systems and has established a strong position in the high growth drone industry. Drones are becoming an integral part of our world, creating huge new markets as they transform the fabric of the economy. There is a key need for safety of commercial drones, and ParaZero is leveraging this opportunity.
In the 2018 financial year, the Company increased its sales and we further expanded our relationships with key sales channels globally in the distributor and retailer space. We have developed and introduced new products, such as the new safety solution “SafeAir Phantom” for the DJI Phantom, the world’s best-selling drone.
We expect 2019 to be another exciting year for ParaZero. The company has revised its business plan to ensure its success by defining the following guidelines:
-
Defined cost reduction.
-
Focus on professional and commercial users to meet the expected growth following the new FAA safety regulations.
-
Continue our extensive OEM capabilities to serve additional drone manufacturers.
-
Leverage 2018 product development, design and manufacture into sales.
-
The Company is well positioned to capitalise on the regulatory changes that are going to affect the drone market going forward.
We expect 2019 to have significant opportunities to add value for all stakeholders, and building on the progress we made in 2018.
I look forward to the continued support of our shareholders. Thank you for your vote of confidence.
Sincerely yours,

The purpose of the Plan is to provide an incentive, in the employment or service or directorship of ParaZero Limited and its subsidiaries, persons of training, experience and ability to attract new employees, directors or consultants whose services are considered valuable, to encourage the sense of proprietorship of such persons and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company by providing them with opportunities to purchase shares in the Company. A total of 25,098,837 Options were issued to executives under the Plan during the 2018 financial year (2017: nil).
4. Non-executive director fee arrangements
The Board policy is to remunerate Non-executive directors at a level to comparable companies for time, commitment, and responsibilities. Non-executive directors may receive performance related compensation. Directors’ fees cover all main Board activities and membership of any committee. The Board has no established retirement or redundancy schemes in relation to Non-executive directors.
The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is presently limited to an aggregate of AU$300,000 (approximately US$211,521) per annum and any change is subject to approval by shareholders at the General Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company.
Total fees for non-executive directors for the financial year were $51,603 (2017: nil) and cover main Board activities only. Non-executive directors may receive additional remuneration for other services provided to the Group.
All non-executive directors enter into a service agreement with the Company in the form of a letter of appointment. The letter summarises the board policies and terms, including remuneration, relevant to the office of director.

ANNUAL REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2018
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These consolidated financial statements cover ParaZero Limited (Company) and its controlled entities as a consolidated entity (also referred to as Group). ParaZero Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Group is a for-profit entity.
The financial statements were issued by the board of directors on 29 March 2019 by the directors of the Company.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the consolidated entity in the preparation and presentation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of preparation of the financial report
a) Statement of Compliance
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) (including Australian interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standard Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001 .
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the Australian Accounting Standards Board has concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
b) Basis of Measurement and Reporting Conventions Including Capital Re-organisation
The financial statements, except for 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. The amounts presented in the financial statements have been rounded off to the nearest dollar unless stated otherwise.
On 13 June 2018, ParaZero Limited (‘PRZ’) completed a transaction with the shareholders of ParaZero Ltd (‘ParaZero Israel’) to acquire 100% of the share capital of ParaZero Israel in exchange for 51,580,391 shares. In accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, the acquisition does not meet the definition of a business combination as PRZ was established for the sole purpose of facilitating the listing process and to acquire ParaZero Israel by way of an equity swap. The shareholders of ParaZero Israel received the same proportion of equity instruments in PRZ.
Consequently, this financial report presents:
-
the results of ParaZero Israel for the period from 1 January 2018 to 13 June 2018
-
the results of the consolidated Group for the period from 13 June 2018 to 31 December 2018; and
-
the consolidated Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2018.
The comparative financial information included in the Company’s financial statements is that of ParaZero Israel, not the Company. However, the capital structure of the legal acquirer, the Company is adopted in the financial report.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with the accounting policies adopted in ParaZero Israel’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017. Comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

ANNUAL REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2018
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
c) Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Group incurred a loss for the year ended 31 December 2018 of $4,539,064 (2017: $2,474,233) and net cash outflows from operating activities of $3,837,972 (2017: $2,013,204).
The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on securing additional funding through either equity, debt or receipts from product sales, or a combination of all, to continue to fund its operational and technology development activities. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Directors believe the Group will continue as a going concern, after consideration of the following factors:
-
the Group has recently been successful in raising equity and believes that further funding can be raised if required;
-
subsequent to the year end, the Group raised A$846,240 in a partially underwritten entitlement offer; and
-
the level of expenses can be managed.
Should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements or raise additional capital through equity or debts raisings and that the financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they become due and payable.
The Directors plan to continue the Group’s operations on the basis as outlined above and believe there will be sufficient funds for the Group to meet its obligations and liabilities for at least twelve (12) months from the date of this report.
d) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2018. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
-
Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);
-
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
-
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
-
The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee,
-
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements,
-
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
A change in ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
-
De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary
-
De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
-
De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
-
Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
-
Recognises the fair value of any investments retained
-
Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit and loss
-
Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.
e) Income Tax
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated 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 enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.

CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
f) Leases
Leases are classified at their inception as either operating or finance leases based on economic substance of the agreement so as to reflect the risks and benefits incidental to ownership.
Operating Leases
The minimum lease payments made under operating leases are charged against profits in equal installments over the accounting periods covered by the lease term where the lessor effectively retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased item.
The cost of improvements to or on leased property is capitalised, disclosed as leasehold improvements and amortised.
Finance leases
Leases which effectively transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased item to the Company are capitalised at the present value of the minimum lease payments and disclosed as property, plant and equipment under lease. A lease liability of equal value is also recognised.
Capitalised lease assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the assets and the lease term. Minimum lease payments are allocated between interest expense and reduction of the lease liability with the interest expense calculated using the interest rate implicit in the lease and recognised directly in net profit.
g) Financial Instruments
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below.

ANNUAL REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2018
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Classification and subsequent measurement
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
(i) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Loans and receivables are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. (All other loans and receivables are classified as non-current assets.)
(ii) Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial liability is derecognised.
Derivative instruments
The Group does not trade or hold derivatives.
Financial guarantees
The Group has no material financial guarantees.
Impairment
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset has been impaired. An impairment exists if one or more events that has occurred since the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtor or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation and observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flow expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset.
Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
h) Impairment of non-financial assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Directors assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information, including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits.
If any such indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the asset’s recoverable amount, being the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
i) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits available on demand with banks with original maturity of three months or less.
j) Trade receivables
Trade receivables, which generally have 0-60-day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. An impairment provision will be recognised when there is objective evidence that Company will not be able to collect the receivable. Bad debts will be written off when identified.
k) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on the average principle and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and the costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
l) Revenue Recognition
The Group manufactures and sells safety systems for drones. Sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer. Delivery occurs when the products have been trucked to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed or the Group has objective evidence that all criterions for acceptance have been satisfied.
The Group’s obligation to provide a refund for faulty products under the standard warranty terms is recognised as a provision. A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
m) Operating expenses
Operating expenses are recognised in profit or loss upon utilisation of the service or at the date of their origin.

ANNUAL REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2018
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
n) Depreciation
Depreciation is a systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of an asset over its useful life. The depreciable amount is the cost of the asset, less its residual value.
An asset is depreciated from the date it is ready for use, meaning the date it reaches the location and condition required for it to operate in the manner intended by management.
Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of the fixed asset item, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the assets.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
-
Computers – 3 years
-
Furniture and equipment – 3-17 years
-
Leasehold improvements – the shorter of the lease term and the useful life
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted if appropriate.
o) Goods and Services Tax (GST)/Value Added Tax (VAT)
Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST/VAT, except where the amount of GST/VAT incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (ATO)/Israeli Tax Authority.
Receivable and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST/VAT receivable or payable. The net amount of the GST/VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO/Israeli Tax Authority is included with other receivables and payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST/VAT component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
p) Employee Benefits
Post-employment benefits
The liability for severance pay is in accordance with obligations under Israeli employment law (Section 14 of the Severance Compensation Act 1963). All Israeli based employees are included under Section 14 and are entitled only to monthly deposits, at a rate of 8.33% of their monthly salary, made in the employee’s name with insurance companies or pension funds. Under Israeli employment law, payments in accordance with Section 14 release the Company from any future severance payments. The funds are made available to the employee at the time the employer-employee relationship is terminated, regardless of the cause of termination. The severance pay liabilities and deposits under Section 14 are not reflected in the statement of financial position as the severance pay risks have been irrevocably transferred to the insurance companies or severance funds.
Short term employee benefits
Short term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided or upon the actual absence of the employee when the benefit is not accumulated.
The employee benefits are classified, for measurement purposes, as short-term benefits or as other long-term benefits depending on when the Group expects the benefits to be wholly settled.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
q) Equity-settled compensation
The Group operates an employee share and option plan. Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortised over the vesting periods. The fair value of performance right options is determined using the satisfaction of certain performance criteria (Performance Milestones). The number of shares option and performance rights 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. The fair value is determined using either a Black Scholes or Monte Carlo simulation model depending on the type of share-based payment.
r) Trade and other payables
Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts carried at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Group. Interest, when charged by the lender, is recognised as an expense on an accruals basis.
s) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.
t) Equity and reserves
Share capital represents the fair value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares are deducted from share capital, net of any related income tax benefits. The option reserve records the value of share-based payments.
u) Foreign currency transactions and balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each entity within the Group is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars which is the subsidiary’s functional currency.
Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit or loss.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised other comprehensive Income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in profit or loss.

PARAZERO LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2018
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 period;
-
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and
-
retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with functional currencies other than Australian dollars are recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed of.
v) 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 (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. The Group’s sole operating segment is consistent with the presentation of these consolidated financial statements.
w) Share Based Payments
Share-based payments 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 the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. 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.
x) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
-
the profit attributable to member of the parent entity, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares
-
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year (if any).
-
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of 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.
y) Predecessor Accounting
Business combinations involving entities under common control are accounted for using the predecessor accounting method. Under this method;
-
carrying values are not restated in the accounts of the acquiring entity, rather prior book values are maintained. As a result, no fair value adjustments are recorded on the acquisition; and
-
the carrying value of net assets or liabilities acquired is recorded as a separate element of equity.

z) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.
Key Estimates and judgements
Capital Re-organisation
The acquisition of 100% of the issued capital of ParaZero Ltd (Israel) by the Company, by way of issuing the shareholders of ParaZero Ltd fully paid shares in the Company, has been determined by management to be a capital re-organisation as the transaction does not meet the definition of a business. Capital re-organisation transactions are a complex accounting area because there are no specific applicable accounting standards to these types of transactions. In the absence of specific guidance, management has used the guidance in AASB 108 ‘Accounting Policies, Change in Accounting Estimates and Errors (para 10) whereby management have used its judgment in developing and applying a relevant and reliable accounting policy using pre-combination book values to account for this transaction as no substantive economic change has occurred. Refer to Note 2 for additional information.
Share based payments
The Group initially measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant.
This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them, as well as an assessment of the probability of achieving non-market based vesting conditions.
The probability of achieving non-market based vesting conditions of performance options is assessed at each reporting period.
The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 20.
Fair value of long-term liabilities
The Group measured its liability on governmental grant received, each period, based on discounted cash flows derived from the Group’s anticipated revenues. The grant is repayable upon the Group commencing product commercialisation and generating revenue from sale of product, with repayments being based on 3% of each dollar of revenue. As required by AASB 9 Financial Instruments , the liability has been recognised at fair value on initial recognition and subject to management’s estimate of discount rate and the timing and quantity of future revenues.

(c) Capital Management
Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group’s capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the Group to meet research and development programs and corporate overheads. The Group’s strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. Any surplus funds are invested with major financial institutions.

CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018
The Broker Options vest immediately, and thus the whole amount is recorded as a share-based payment. As the options were granted for services rendered in respect of the IPO, the amount is treated as a capital raising cost, and capitalised against the share capital raised. Due to the specialised nature of the services rendered, management do not consider it possible to determine their value, and thus the cost recorded is the fair value of the options granted.
The Class A performance options have a solely non-market performance condition, and therefore, the charge recognised reflects the management’s current expectation of the total vesting period. Management have assessed the expected time to vest to be 1 year in relation to the Class A performance options. In the period to 31 December 2018, the charge recognised in respect of these options was US$814,520.
The Class B and C performance options contain both a market and a non-market performance condition. Management have assessed the expected time to vest to be 2 years in relation to Class B performance options and 3 years in relation to the Class C performance options. As a result, a charge is recognised over the vesting periods of each of Class B and Class C. This was equal to US$496,538 in the period to 31 December 2018.
Share Based Payments Expense
Share based payment expense at 31 December 2018 is comprised as follows:

NOTE 21: 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 (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. The Group’s sole operating segment is consistent with the presentation of these consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 22: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(a) Capital management
The Group’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits to other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Given the nature of the business, the Group monitors capital on the basis of current business operations and cash flow requirements. There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.
(b) Categories of financial instruments
| Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Long-term loans Other financial liability |

|

The fair value of the above financial instruments approximates their carrying values.
(c) Financial risk management policies
In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of those risks is presented throughout these financial statements.
The board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group’s finance function. The Group’s risk management policies and objectives are therefore designed to minimise the potential impacts of those risks on the Group where such impacts may be material. The board receives monthly financial reports through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group’s competitiveness and flexibility.

NOTE 22: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(d) Market risk
Market risk for the Group arises from the use of interest-bearing financial instruments. It is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in interest rate (see (e) below).
(e) Interest rate risk management
The following table illustrates sensitivities to the Group’s exposures to changes in interest rates. The table indicates the impact on how profit and equity values reported at reporting date would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variable that management considers to be reasonably possible. These sensitivities assume that the movement in a particular variable is independent of other variables.
| Year ended 31 December 2018 +/-1% in interest rates Year ended 31 December 2017 +/-1% in interest rates |
Movement in Profit US$ Movement in Equity US$ |
|---|---|
| 5,848 5,848 540 540 |
(f) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the Group uses other publicly available information and its own trading records to rates its major customers. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties.
The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.
(g) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows.

(h) Net fair value of financial assets and liabilities
Fair value estimation
Due to the short-term nature of the receivables and payables the carrying value approximates fair value.
(i) Foreign currency risk
The currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to change in foreign exchange rates. Currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency. The company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to the US Dollar (the functional currency of the subsidiary company), the New Israeli Shekel, the Australian Dollar (functional currency of the Parent company).

NOTE 28: APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED AUSTRALIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Amendments to Accounting Standards that are mandatorily effective for the current reporting period
The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for an accounting period that begins on or after 1 January 2018.
New and revised Standards and amendments thereof and Interpretations effective for the current year that are relevant to the Group include:
-
AASB 9 Financial Instruments and related amending Standards
-
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and related amending Standards
-
AASB 2016-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payments Transactions
-
Interpretation 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Considerations
AASB 9 Financial Instruments and related amending Standards
In the current year, the Group has applied AASB 9 Financial Instruments (as amended) and the related consequential amendments to other Accounting Standards that are effective for an annual period that begins on or after 1 January 2018. The transition provisions of AASB 9 allow an entity not to restate comparatives.
AASB 9 introduced an expected credit loss model for impairment of financial assets which replaces the incurred loss model. A simplified impairment model applies to trade receivables with maturities of 12 months or less. There is no material impact on the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and related amending Standards
The core principle of AASB 15 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Under AASB 15, an entity recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control’ of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. There is no material impact on the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018.
The adoption of AASB 2016-5 and Interpretation 22 has not had any material impact on the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018.

New Standards and Interpretations on issue but not yet adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018. Relevant Standards and Interpretations are outlined in the table below.
| New/revised pronouncement |
Explanation of amendments | Application Date of Standard |
Application Date of Group |
|---|---|---|---|
| AASB 16 Leases |
The key features of AASB 16 are as follows: Lessee accounting: • Lessees are required to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying assets is of low value. • A lessee measures right-of-use assets similarly to other non-financial assets and lease liabilities similarly to other financial liabilities. • Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on present value basis. The measurement includes non-cancellable lease payments (including inflation-linked payments), and also includes payments to be made in optional periods if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease. • AASB 16 contains disclosure requirements for lessees. Lessor accounting: • AASB 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in AASB 117. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. • AASB 16 also requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors that will improve information disclosed about a lessor’s risk exposure, particularly to residual value risk. AASB 16 supersedes: (a) AASB 117 Leases (b) Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease (c) SIC-15 Operating Leases-Incentives SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transaction Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. |
1 January 2019 | 1 January 2019 |
The Group has decided not to early adopt any of the new and amended pronouncements. The Company has completed an initial assessment of the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements. The application of AASB 16 will not have a material impact on the disclosures or the amounts recognised in the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Parazero Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Parazero Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2018, 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 report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2018 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
(ii) Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the 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 related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 1(c) in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee.

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. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
Accounting for share-based payments
| Key audit matter | How the matter was addressed in our audit |
| During the year ended 31 December | Our procedures included, but were not limited to the |

==> picture [78 x 31] intentionally omitted <==
Accounting for capital reorganisation
| Key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit |
|
| On 14 June 2018 Parazero Limited acquired 100% of the issued capital of Parazero Ltd, by issuing the shareholders of Parazero Ltd fully paid ordinary shares in Parazero Limited. The transaction has been accounted for as a capital reorganisation and not an acquisition, as the shareholders of Parazero Ltd are the same shareholders of Parazero Limited. Capital reorganisation transactions are a complex accounting area because there is no specific applicable accounting standards for these types of transactions. In the absence of specific guidance, management is required to use its judgement in developing and applying an accounting policy that is relevant and reliable. There is a risk in the financial statements that amounts are incorrectly recognised and/or inappropriately disclosed. Refer to Note 1 and 2 of the financial report for a description of the accounting policy and judgements applied to this transaction. Our procedures included, but were not limited to the following: • Obtaining an understanding of the relevant agreements in line with management’s assessment of the transaction and the accounting policies adopted to reflect the capital reorganisation; • Evaluating the appropriateness of the use of capital reorganisation accounting as it was applied to this transaction; • Assessing that the transaction was accounted for by using pre-combination book values, with no fair value uplift being recognised by Parazero Ltd on this transaction; • Assessing the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures in respect of the accounting for this acquisition in Note 1 and 2 in the financial report, including the significant judgements involved and the accounting policy adopted. |

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information contained in Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2018, 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 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 identified above 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.

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 has 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.

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.

Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight
Roles of the Board & Management
The role of the Board is to provide overall strategic guidance and effective oversight of management. The Board derives its authority to act from the Company’s Constitution.
The Board is responsible for and has the authority to determine all matters relating to the strategic direction, policies, practices, establishing goals for management and the operation of the Company. The Board delegates responsibility for the day-to-day operations and administration of the Company to the Chief Executive Officer.
The role of management is to support the Chief Executive Officer and implement the running of the general operations and financial business of the Company, in accordance with the delegated authority of the Board.
In addition to matters it is expressly required by law to approve, the Board has reserved the following matters to itself:
-
overseeing the Company, including its control and accountability systems;
-
appointment, evaluation, rewarding and if necessary, the removal of the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent), the Company Secretary and senior management personnel;
-
ratifying the appointment, and where appropriate, the removal, of senior executives;

ensuring that the Company acts legally and responsibly on all matters and assuring itself that the Company has adopted, and that its practice is consistent with, a number of guidelines including:
-
Code of Conduct;
-
Continuous Disclosure Policy;
-
Diversity Policy;
-

Subject to the specific authorities reserved to the Board under the Board Charter, the Board delegates to the Chief Executive Officer responsibility for the management and operation of ParaZero. The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the dayto-day operations, financial performance and administration of ParaZero within the powers authorised to him from time-totime by the Board. The Chief Executive Officer may make further delegation within the delegations specified by the Board and will be accountable to the Board for the exercise of those delegated powers.
Further details of Board responsibilities, objectives and structure are set out in the Board Charter which is contained within the Corporate Governance Plan available on the ParaZero website.
Board Committees
The Board considers that the Company is not currently of a size, nor are its affairs of such complexity to justify the formation of separate committees at this time including audit and risk, remuneration or nomination committees, preferring at this stage of the Company’s development, to manage the Company through the full Board of Directors. The Board assumes the responsibilities normally delegated to the audit and risk, remuneration and nomination Committees.
If the Company’s activities increase, in size, scope and nature, the appointment of separate committees will be reviewed by the Board and implemented if considered appropriate.
Board Appointments
The Company undertakes comprehensive reference checks prior to appointing a director or putting that person forward as a candidate to ensure that person is competent, experienced, and would not be impaired in any way from undertaking the duties of director. The Company provides relevant information to shareholders for their consideration about the attributes of candidates together with whether the Board supports the appointment or re-election.
The terms of the appointment of a non-executive director, executive directors and senior executives are agreed upon and set out in writing at the time of appointment.
The Company Secretary
The Company Secretary is accountable directly to the Board, through the Chairman, on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the Board, including agendas, Board papers and minutes, advising the Board and its Committees (as applicable) on governance matters, monitoring that the Board and Committee policies and procedures are followed, communication with regulatory bodies and the ASX and statutory and other filings.
Diversity
The Board has adopted a Diversity Policy which provides a framework for the Company to establish and achieve measurable diversity objectives, including in respect to gender, age, ethnicity and cultural diversity. The Diversity Policy allows the Board to set measurable gender diversity objectives (if considered appropriate) and to assess annually both the objectives (if any have been set) and the Company’s progress towards achieving them.

PARAZERO LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2018
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
The Board considers that, due to the size, nature and stage of development of the Company, setting measurable objectives for the Diversity Policy at this time is not appropriate. The Board will consider setting measurable objectives as the Company increases in size and complexity.
The participation of women in the Company at the date of this report is as follows:
-
Women employees in the Company 24%
-
Women in senior management positions 28%
-
• Women on the Board 20%
The Company’s Diversity Policy is available on its website.

comparison of the performance of the Board against the requirements of the Board charter;
-
assessment of the performance of the Board over the previous twelve months having regard to the corporate strategies, operating plans and the annual budget;
-
review the Board’s interaction with management;
-
identification of any particular goals and objectives of the Board for the next year;
-
review the type and timing of information provided to the directors; and

The method and scope of the performance evaluation will be set by the Board and may include a Board self-assessment checklist to be completed by each Director. The Board may also use an independent adviser to assist in the review.
The Chairman has primary responsibility for conducting performance appraisals of Non-Executive Directors, in conjunction with them, having particular regard to:
-
contribution to Board discussion and function;
-
degree of independence including relevance of any conflicts of interest;

membership of and contribution to any Board committees; and
-
suitability to Board structure and composition.

The Chief Executive Officer conducts an annual performance assessment of senior executives against agreed key performance indicators
Due to ParaZero only listing in June 2018, no formal appraisal of the Board or Chief Executive Officer has been conducted.
Independent Advice
Directors have a right of access to all Company information and executives. Directors are entitled, in fulfilling their duties and responsibilities, to seek independent external professional advice as considered necessary at the expense of the Company, subject to prior consultation with the Chairman. A copy of any such advice received is made available to all members of the Board.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Principle 3: Act ethically and responsibly
The Company has implemented a Code of Conduct, which provides a framework for decisions and actions in relation to ethical conduct in employment. It underpins the Company’s commitment to integrity and fair dealing in its business affairs and to a duty of care to all employees, clients and stakeholders.
All employees and Directors are expected to:
-
respect the law and act in accordance with it;
-
maintain high levels of professional conduct;
-
respect confidentiality and not misuse Company information, assets or facilities;
-
avoid real or perceived conflicts of interest;
-
act in the best interests of shareholders;
-
by their actions contribute to the Company’s reputation as a good corporate citizen which seeks the respect of the community and environment in which it operates;
-
perform their duties in ways that minimise environmental impacts and maximise workplace safety;
-
exercise fairness, courtesy, respect, consideration and sensitivity in all dealings within their workplace and with customers, suppliers and the public generally; and
-
act with honesty, integrity, decency and responsibility at all times.
An employee that breaches the Code of Conduct may face disciplinary action including, in the cases of serious breaches, dismissal. If an employee suspects that a breach of the Code of Conduct has occurred or will occur, he or she must report that breach to the Company Secretary, or in their absence, the Chairman. No employee will be disadvantaged or prejudiced if he or she reports in good faith a suspected breach. All reports will be acted upon and kept confidential.
Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in corporate reporting
The Board as a whole fulfils to the functions normally delegated to the Audit Committee as detailed in the Audit Committee Charter.
The Board is responsible for the initial appointment of the external auditor and the appointment of a new external auditor when any vacancy arises. Candidates for the position of external auditor must demonstrate complete independence from the Company throughout the engagement period. The Board may otherwise select an external auditor based on criteria relevant to the Company’s business and circumstances. The performance of the external auditor is reviewed on an annual basis by the Board.
The Board receives regular reports from management and from external auditors. It also meets with the external auditors as and when required.
The external auditors attend ParaZero's AGM and are available to answer questions from security holders relevant to the audit.
Prior approval of the Board must be gained for non-audit work to be performed by the external auditor. There are qualitative limits on this non-audit work to ensure that the independence of the auditor is maintained.

Principle 5: Make timely and balanced disclosure
The Company has a Continuous Disclosure Policy which outlines the disclosure obligations of the Company as required under the ASX Listing Rules and Corporations Act. The policy is designed to ensure that procedures are in place so that the market is properly informed of matters which may have a material impact on the price at which Company securities are traded.
The Board considers whether there are any matters requiring disclosure in respect of each and every item of business that it considers in its meetings. Individual Directors are required to make such a consideration when they become aware of any information in the course of their duties as a Director of the Company.
The Company is committed to ensuring all investors have equal and timely access to material information concerning the Company.
The Board has designated the Company Secretary as the person responsible for communicating with the ASX. All key announcements at the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer are to be circulated to and reviewed by all members of the Board.
The Chairman/Chief Executive Officer, the Board and the Company Secretary are responsible for ensuring that:
-
a) company announcements are made in a timely manner, that announcements are factual and do not omit any material information required to be disclosed under the ASX Listing Rules and Corporations Act; and
-
b) company announcements are expressed in a clear and objective manner that allows investors to assess the impact of the information when making investment decisions.
Principle 6: Respect the rights of security holders
The Company recognises the value of providing current and relevant information to its shareholders. The Board of the Company aims to ensure that the shareholders are informed of all major developments affecting the Company’s state of affairs.
The Company respects the rights of its shareholders and to facilitate the effective exercise of those rights the Company is committed to:
-
communicating effectively with shareholders through releases to the market via ASX, the company website, information posted or emailed to shareholders and the general meetings of the Company;
-
giving shareholders ready access to clear and understandable information about the Company; and
-
making it easy for shareholders to participate in general meetings of the Company.

Principle 7: Recognise and manage risk
The Board is committed to the identification, assessment and management of risk throughout ParaZero's business activities.
The Board is responsible for the oversight of the Company’s risk management and internal compliance and control framework. The Company does not have an internal audit function. Responsibility for control and risk management is delegated to the appropriate level of management within the Company with the Chief Executive Officer having ultimate responsibility to the Board for the risk management and internal compliance and control framework. ParaZero has established policies for the oversight and management of material business risks.
ParaZero's Risk Management and Internal Compliance and Control Policy recognises that risk management is an essential element of good corporate governance and fundamental in achieving its strategic and operational objectives. Risk management improves decision making, defines opportunities and mitigates material events that may impact security holder value.
ParaZero believes that explicit and effective risk management is a source of insight and competitive advantage. To this end, ParaZero is committed to the ongoing development of a strategic and consistent enterprise wide risk management program, underpinned by a risk conscious culture.
ParaZero accepts that risk is a part of doing business. Therefore, the Company’s Risk Management and Internal Compliance and Control Policy is not designed to promote risk avoidance. Rather, ParaZero's approach is to create a risk conscious culture that encourages the systematic identification, management and control of risks whilst ensuring we do not enter into unnecessary risks or enter into risks unknowingly.
ParaZero assesses its risks on a residual basis; that is it evaluates the level of risk remaining and considering all the mitigation practices and controls. Depending on the materiality of the risks, ParaZero applies varying levels of management plans.
The Board has required management to design and implement a risk management and internal compliance and control system to manage ParaZero’s material business risks. It receives regular reports on specific business areas where there may exist significant business risk or exposure. The Company faces risks inherent to its business, including economic risks, which may materially impact the Company’s ability to create or preserve value for security holders over the short, medium or long term. The Company has in place policies and procedures, including a risk management framework (as described in the Company’s Risk Management and Internal Compliance and Control Policy), which is developed and updated to help manage these risks. The Board does not consider that the Company currently has any material exposure to environmental or social sustainability risks.
The Company’s process of risk management and internal compliance and control includes:
-
identifying and measuring risks that might impact upon the achievement of the Company’s goals and objectives, and monitoring the environment for emerging factors and trends that affect those risks;
-
formulating risk management strategies to manage identified risks, and designing and implementing appropriate risk management policies and internal controls; and
-
monitoring the performance of, and improving the effectiveness of, risk management systems and internal compliance and controls, including regular assessment of the effectiveness of risk management and internal compliance and control.
The Board review’s the Company’s risk management framework at least annually to ensure that it continues to effectively manage risk.
Management reports to the Board as to the effectiveness of ParaZero’s management of its material business risks at each Board meeting.

Principle 8: Remunerate fairly and responsibly
The Board as a whole fulfills to the functions normally delegated to the Remuneration Committee as detailed in the Remuneration Committee Charter.
ParaZero has implemented a Remuneration Policy which was designed to recognise the competitive environment within which ParaZero operates and also emphasise the requirement to attract and retain high caliber talent in order to achieve sustained improvement in ParaZero’s performance. The overriding objective of the Remuneration Policy is to ensure that an individual’s remuneration package accurately reflects their experience, level of responsibility, individual performance and the performance of ParaZero.
The key principles are to:
-
review and approve the executive remuneration policy to enable the Company to attract and retain executives and Directors who will create value for shareholders;
-
ensure that the executive remuneration policy demonstrates a clear relationship between key executive performance and remuneration;
-
fairly and responsibly reward executives having regard to the performance of the Group, the performance of the executive and the prevailing remuneration expectations in the market;
-
remunerate fairly and competitively in order to attract and retain top talent;
-
recognise capabilities and promote opportunities for career and professional development; and
-
review and approve equity-based plans and other incentive schemes to foster a partnership between employees and other security holders.
The Board determines the Company’s remuneration policies and practices and assesses the necessary and desirable competencies of Board members. The Board is responsible for evaluating Board performance, reviewing Board and management succession plans and determines remuneration packages for the Chief Executive Officer, Non-Executive Directors and senior management based on an annual review.
ParaZero’s executive remuneration policies and structures and details of remuneration paid to directors and key management personnel (where applicable) are set out in the Remuneration Report.
Non-Executive Directors receive fees (including statutory superannuation where applicable) for their services, the reimbursement of reasonable expenses and, in certain circumstances options.
The maximum aggregate remuneration for Non-Executive Directors is $300,000 per annum as disclosed within the Company’s constitution which may be varied from time to time by the Shareholders in general meeting. The Directors set the individual Non-Executive Directors fees within the limit approved by shareholders.
Executive directors and other senior executives (where appointed) are remunerated using combinations of fixed and performance-based remuneration. Fees and salaries are set at levels reflecting market rates and performance-based remuneration is linked directly to specific performance targets that are aligned to both short- and long-term objectives.
The Company prohibits Directors and employees from entering into any transaction that would have the effect of hedging or otherwise transferring the risk of any fluctuation in the value of any unvested entitlement in the Company’s securities to any other person.
Further details in relation to the company’s remuneration policies are contained in the Remuneration Report, within the Directors’ report.
