For the half year ended 30 June 2020, the loss for the Group after providing for income tax amounted to $376,652, an improvement of 75% on the prior comparative period.
Underlying EBITDA for the six months ended 30 June 2020 was a loss of $219,348, an improvement of 73% on the prior comparative period as the company actively managed through the COVID-19 global pandemic by focusing on consolidating revenues whilst maintaining a disciplined approach to costs.
Underlying EBITDA is a key measurement used by management and the board to review and assess business performance and is a non-IFRS measure calculated as profit before income tax, and before depreciation and amortisation, capitalised salaries, share based payments, net finance costs and foreign exchange. A reconciliation of underlying EBITDA is shown below:

Simble Solutions Limited and its controlled entities Directors' report 30 June 2020
==> picture [28 x 35] intentionally omitted <==
The directors present their report, together with the financial statements, on the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as the 'Group') consisting of Simble Solutions Limited (referred to hereafter as the 'Company' or 'parent entity') and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the half-year ended 30 June 2020.
Directors
The following persons were directors of Simble Solutions Limited during the whole of the financial half-year and up to the date of this report, unless otherwise stated:
Ben Loiterton (Chairman) - Appointed Chairman 1 June 2020 Philip Tye (Former Chairman) - Resigned as Chairman 1 June 2020 Fadi Geha
Principal activities
During the financial half-year, the principal continuing activities of the Group consisted of providing and developing Software as a Service ('SaaS') for businesses and organisations seeking energy management and mobility solutions.
Dividends
There were no dividends paid, recommended or declared during the current or previous financial half-year.
Review of operations
The Simble Solutions Limited Group made a loss after income tax expense amounting to $376,652 for the half-year to 30 June 2020 (30 June 2019: $1,481,763), an improvement of 75% compared to the previous corresponding period. The directors consider this to be a strong result in a period notable for its challenging environment, particularly impacted by the COVID-19 global pandemic.
Total revenues for the period decreased by 20% to $1,202,055 from $1,498,498 in the prior half-year period to 30 June 2019.
Energy Software-as-a-Service ('SaaS') sales revenue increased by $128,564 or 32% to $529,474. This was offset by a decrease in hardware sales, which were $92,919 or 68% lower at $42,879 primarily due to the timing of a large stocking order that was placed in the prior half year period. Overall, revenues from the Company’s energy division increased by 7% to $572,352, compared to $536,708 in the previous corresponding period. While hardware revenues are recognised immediately, SaaS revenues are recognised on a pro-rata basis over the contract term and it is anticipated that the Company’s recurring revenue base will continue to strengthen.
Operating revenues in the UK are solely energy SaaS and increased to $288,648, up 12% from $257,853 in the prior half, as the Company onboarded and consolidated customers, particularly those utilising the software-only solution, SimbleConnect. Australian energy SaaS revenues were flat at $293,030 compared with $297,780 in the previous corresponding period.
Revenues from the Company’s mobility SaaS division declined by 42% to $284,637 during the financial year compared to $488,154 in 2019. Despite the decline in revenues, the Company was successful in renewing contracts with several longstanding local government authority customers, thus maintaining mobility SaaS as a related, but diversified, income stream. It remains a priority to broaden the customer base for the Simble product suite by exploring complementary opportunities across both divisions.
Other income consists primarily of Research and Development tax incentives, which decreased to $289,906 (30 June 2019: $429,271), as a function of the Company’s vigilant cost management which resulted in reduced claimable expenditure on software development.
The Group has continued to vigilantly manage its operating costs with operating expenses of $1,223,693 for the six months to 30 June 2020 down from $2,407,076 for the previous corresponding period. This decrease represents an improvement of $1,183,383 or 49% for the six-month period.
Net cash used in operating activities in the period improved to $758,398 compared to $782,337 in the six months to June 2019, although the actual improvement in the Company’s cash burn was masked by the payment of circa $235,000 of prior period legacy liabilities in the current period.

Simble Solutions Limited and its controlled entities Directors' report 30 June 2020
==> picture [28 x 35] intentionally omitted <==
The Company’s intangible assets including capitalised software, trademarks, customer relationships and goodwill were fully impaired to zero carrying value at 31 December, 2019. Due to the uncertainty in the current environment the directors believe that the criteria for the recognition of intangible assets has not been met in the period. Notwithstanding this accounting treatment, the directors believe that the software owned by the Company has substantial economic value and expect that the criteria for the recognition of intangible assets will be met in the future, at which time the costs of software development will be capitalised.
Underlying EBITDA is a key measurement used by management and the board to review and assess business performance and is a non-IFRS measure calculated as profit before income tax, and before depreciation and amortisation, capitalised salaries, share based payments, net finance costs and foreign exchange.

Significant changes in the state of affairs
During the financial half-year, the world continued to be beset by the effects of the infectious disease COVID-19 ('Coronavirus'). Despite the passing of time, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company remains uncertain. The Directors will continue to assess the situation on a regular basis.
On 12 February 2020, the Company announced that it would be undertaking a Share Purchase Plan (‘SPP’) with the intention of offering up to 30% of the Company’s share capital, being the maximum amount permitted by the Australian Stock Exchange (‘ASX’) Listing Rules, at $0.016 per share. The original SPP closing date of 6 March 2020 was extended to 27 March 2020 and has raised at least $115,800.
On 17 February 2020, the Company announced that 19,094,546 fully paid ordinary shares, 13,500,000 Class A performance shares and 22,500,000 Class B performance shares would be released from mandatory escrow arrangements on 24 February 2020.
On 21 February 2020, the Company announced that it had signed a three-year agreement with Feilo Sylvania International Group Ltd (Sylvania Lighting) to incorporate the SimbleSense platform into Sylvania Lighting’s lighting projects to commercial customers, commencing in the UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy.
On 25 March 2020, the Company announced completion of a $375,000 placement to investors via the issue of 20,833,335 fully paid ordinary shares at $0.018 per share. The shares were issued in two tranches, the first on 30 March 2020 by the issue of 6,781,103 shares under listing rule 7.1 of the ASX and the second by the issue of 14,052,232 million shares following shareholder approval at the 2019 Annual General Meeting.
On 7 April 2020, the Company announced that 22,500,000 Class B and 2,500,000 Class D performance shares issued as part of the Company’s initial public offering in 2018 had lapsed as the performance criteria were not met.
At the Company’s Annual General Meeting held on 1 June 2020, the shareholders approved the second tranche issue of 14,052,232 shares thereby completing the $375,000 placement to investors announced on 25 March 2020.
There were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial half-year.

Simble Solutions Limited and its controlled entities Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2020
==> picture [28 x 35] intentionally omitted <==
Note 1. General information
The financial statements cover Simble Solutions Limited as a Group consisting of Simble Solutions Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the half-year. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Simble Solutions Limited's functional and presentation currency.
Simble Solutions Limited is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office and principal place of business are:
Registered office Principal place of business C/O Boardroom Pty Limited Level 2 Level 12 383 George Street 225 George Street Sydney NSW 2000 Sydney NSW 2000
A description of the nature of the Group's operations and its principal activities are included in the directors' report, which is not part of the financial statements.
The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 28 August 2020.
Note 2. Significant accounting policies
These general purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 30 June 2020 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.
These general purpose financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2019 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, unless otherwise stated.
New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
Going concern
The Directors have prepared the half-year financial report on the going concern basis, which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income reflects a consolidated net loss of $376,652 (30 June 2019: net loss of $1,481,763) and the consolidated statement of cash flows shows net operating cash outflows of $758,398 (30 June 2019: net operating cash outflows of $782,337) for the half-year ended 30 June 2020. The consolidated statement of financial position shows net liabilities of $1,557,409 (31 December 2019: net liabilities of $1,740,728) as well as an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $745,546 (31 December 2019: excess of current liabilities over current assets of $808,006).
The Group has been through a process of significant restructure during the period in response to a number of external and internal factors, and whilst this activity was aimed at narrowing the focus to generating higher margin software revenues along with substantially reducing fixed costs to vastly improve the cash flow profile for the group, it has resulted in poor financial results for the period. These conditions give rise to a material uncertainty which may cast doubt over the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast for the Group through to 31 December 2021. The forecast assumes continuity of business and indicates that the Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due after considering the following factors:
-
As at 30 June 2020, the Group had available cash resources of $450,200. As at 16 August 2020, the Group had available cash resources of $522,401 inclusive of the United Kingdom’s Research & Development tax relief claim received in August 2020. The Group will continue to incur expenditure that will give rise to such claims in the year ended 31 December 2020;
-
The Group currently has contracted and recurring annual net revenues of approximately $800,000, being $500,000 in Australia and $300,000 in the UK;
-
The Group has forecasted revenue over the period to 31 December 2021 by identifying discreet potential revenue opportunities and applying an appropriate conversion factor based on historical experience. The impact of the COVID19 pandemic is ongoing and while Group earnings have, on the whole, proved resilient up to 30 June 2020, there is significant uncertainty regarding future events and the potential impact on revenue. The Directors will continue to assess the situation on a regular basis;
-
The Group has continually reduced its recurring operating expenditure and, following these reductions, has stabilised operating outgoings at approximately $100,000 per month from June 2020 onwards;
-
The Group has recognised contract liabilities where software subscriptions have been received in advance and assumes that SaaS revenue will continue to be recognised over the term of the subscription period. Under the terms of the software subscription, if the agreement is terminated by the customer prior to the end of the subscription period, the Company is not required to refund any subscription fees. If the agreement is terminated by the Company prior to the end of the subscription period, the Company is required to provide a pro-rata refund of fees paid in advance;
-
The Group assumes that the current lease liabilities will continue to be offset by the finance lease receivable until both leases expire;
-
The Group is at various stages of negotiations with a number of existing customers including Energy & Carbon, Sylvania Lighting, Powercor and GA Harper Construction, and it is expected that these negotiations will result in additional revenue, under existing agreements, to be earned by the Group within the next 12 months;
-
The augmentation of the existing contracted and recurring revenues by modest additional revenues from sources noted above are expected to result in the Group becoming profitable and cash flow positive during the period; and
-
The Group may undertake further capital raisings, in the case that only currently contracted revenues and annual subscription renewal revenue eventuates.
The Directors are confident that the Group will achieve successful outcomes in relation to the above matters, and that it is therefore appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis and that the Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable from available cash resources, operating cash flows and additional capital to be raised.
However, if the initiatives and further capital raisings stated above do not eventuate, such circumstances would indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The consolidated financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classifications of recorded asset amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.
Note 3. Operating segments
Identification of reportable operating segments
The Group operates in one segment, based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.
As a result, the operating segment information is disclosed in the statement and notes to the financial statements.
Major customers
During the half-year, UCR Consultants contributed 20.3% of external sales.

Independent auditor’s review report to members
Report on the Review of the Half-Year Financial Report
Conclusion
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Simble Solutions Limited (the company) and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half year (the consolidated entity) on pages 2 to 15, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated 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.
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 Simble Solutions Limited on pages 2 to 15 is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its performance for the half year ended on that date; and
-
b) complying with Australian Accounting Standard 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 2 in the half-year financial report, which indicates that the consolidated entity incurred a net loss of $376,652 during the half year ended 30 June 2020 and, as of that date, the consolidated entity’s liabilities exceeded its assets by $1,557,409. As stated in Note 2, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2 indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Responsibilities of the Directors 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 gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Half-Year Financial Report
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 financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 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 Simble Solutions 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.
