Simble Solutions Limited and its controlled entities Directors' report 30 June 2021

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 2021.

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) Fadi Geha Darryl Flukes

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 intelligence, carbon reporting and business productivity 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 $434k for the half-year to 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $377k), a decline of 15% compared to the previous corresponding period.

Total revenues for the period were $688k (30 June 2020: $1,202k); a reduction of $514k due mainly to the effect of one-off items in the prior period.

Offsetting this, the Group has continued to vigilantly manage its operating costs with operating expenses reducing by $499k (30 June 2021: $725k, 30 June 2020: $1,224k). Net cash used in operating activities in the period improved to $433k compared to $758k in the six months to 30 June 2020.

The directors consider this to be a strong operating result in a period notable for its challenging environment, particularly impacted by the COVID- 19 global pandemic.

Revenue by Division is broken down as follows:

1H 2021$k Revenue1H 2020$k Variance% Commentary on variance
Energy SaaS 326 529 (38%) AU: One-off revenue adjustments thatwere recognised in the prior half yearperiod.UK: One-off invoicing catch-up in theprior year.

Total Revenue 688 1,202 (42%) claim is expected to be received, andwill be recognised as revenue, beforethe end of the financial year.

Simble Solutions Limited and its controlled entities Directors' report 30 June 2021

While hardware revenues are recognised immediately, SaaS revenues are recognised on a pro-rata basis over the contract term. It is anticipated that the Company's recurring revenue base will strengthen significantly in the year ahead.

Despite the decline in Business Productivity SaaS revenues, the Company was successful in renewing contracts with several long-standing customers, thus maintaining business productivity 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.

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 internally generated 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 begin to be capitalised.

Significant changes in the state of affairs

On 9 February 2021, the Company announced that it had signed a three-year agreement with David Brown Group Limited to implement the CarbonView carbon reporting platform across 28 locations around the world including the UK, US, China, Russia, Germany and Australia.

In March 2021 the Group secured agreement to convert $1.18 million of convertible note debt to equity, which was subsequently approved by shareholders at the 2021 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') in May 2021. The conversion into 29,477,670 fully paid ordinary shares has extinguished $1.18 million from current liabilities, thereby significantly improving the Group's balance sheet.

On 29 April 2021, the Company announced that it had signed a three-year agreement with Juice Capital to provide the SimbleSense solar and energy metering software platform, the SimbleHome app and energy IoT devices to its existing PPA customer sites and all future customers across the Juice Capital Energy and Horan & Bird subsidiaries.

On 30 April 2021, the Company announced that it had signed a three-year agreement with United Solar Group to provide the SimbleSense solar and energy metering software platform, the SimbleHome app and energy IoT devices to a minimum 500 residential homes across the regions in which it operates including Australia, Malaysia, The Philippines, Sri Lanka and Latin America.

On 26 July 2021, the Company announced that it was launching an equity raising by way of a placement to new and existing sophisticated and institutional investors to raise circa $1.5m at an offer price of $0.025, with investors also receiving one free attaching option for every two shares subscribed for under the placement, exercisable at $0.04 with a three-year term. On 28 July 2021, the Company announced that it had successfully completed the oversubscribed placement of $1.63m including $0.08m from directors, subject to shareholder approval. The Company also announced its intention to issue bonus options to existing shareholders on a one for ten basis with the option terms the same as those issued under the placement.

On 28 July 2021, the Company issued a Prospectus in respect of the issue of bonus options and a result, 24,205,256 bonus options were issued to existing shareholders on 10 August 2021.

There were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial half-year.

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 27 August 2021.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies

These general purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 30 June 2021 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 2020 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.

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 $434,083 (30 June 2020: net loss of $376,652) and the consolidated statement of cash flows shows net operating cash outflows of $432,600 (30 June 2020: net operating cash outflows of $758,398) for the half-year ended 30 June 2021. The consolidated statement of financial position shows net liabilities of $612,062 (31 December 2020: net liabilities of $1,339,887) as well as an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $713,697 (31 December 2020: excess of current liabilities over current assets of $1,441,613).

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast for the Group through to 30 June 2024. 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 2021, the Group had available cash resources of $499k. As at 19 August 2021, the Group had available cash resources of $1.541m including funds received via a placement in August 2021;
  • On 28 July 2021, the Company announced that it had successfully completed the oversubscribed placement of $1.63m with $1.55m in cash received by 2 August 2021. The remaining $75k from directors will be received following approval by shareholders at a General Meeting schedule for September 2021;
  • The Group currently has contracted and recurring annual net revenues of approximately $1m, being $650k in Australia and $350k in the UK;
  • The Group continues to work with its existing customers including Juice Capital, United Solar, A2EP, GA Harper, Powercor, Sylvania Lighting and UCR Consultants, and it is expected that this will result in additional revenues, under existing agreements, to be earned by the Group within the next 12 months;
  • The Group has committed to expenditure on marketplace and channel expansion along with investment in the Group's software and it is expected that these activities will result in revenues beyond currently contracted revenues and annual subscription renewals;
  • A research and development tax concession claim for the year ended 31 December 2020 is in the process of being prepared in respect of the UK entity. A conservative estimate of the amount to be claimed of GBP£100k (A$181k) has been included in the cashflow forecast compared to the prior year amount received of GBP£172k (A$312k). The Group will continue to incur expenditure that will give rise to such claims in the year ended 31 December 2021;
  • The Group has maintained a low level of recurring operating expenditure over an extended period of time such that operating expenses are currently limited to approximately $150k per month during 2021;
  • 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's current lease liabilities has been offset by the finance lease receivable and will be fully extinguished when the leases expire in September 2021;
  • In March 2021 the Group secured agreement to convert $1.18 million of convertible note debt to equity, which was subsequently approved by shareholders at the 2021 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') in May 2021. The conversion into 29,477,670 fully paid ordinary shares has extinguished $1.18 million from current liabilities, thereby significantly improving the Group's balance sheet. In August 2021 a further $47k note was repaid with the remaining notes having an outstanding value of $62k (including capitalised interest) repayment of which has been factored into the cash flow forecast by December 2021;
  • The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is continually being assessed by the Group, and in particular the varied impact in the different geographies the Company operates in. Whilst it has been difficult to ascertain the specific financial impact of COVID-19, the Directors will continue to assess the situation as it continues.

Current liabilities Convertible notes payable 106,329 1,236,113

Conversion of notes to equity

During the period, the holders of 942.000 notes entered into deeds of amendment to the original convertible note deeds, the effect of which was to agree to the conversion of the notes and capitalised interest into ordinary shares at a conversion price of $0.04 and amending the conversion date to the date on which shareholders approved the conversion. Shareholder approval was received at the 2021 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') on 20 May 2021 resulting in the conversion of $1,179,107 of notes payable and capitalised interest into 29,477,670 fully paid ordinary shares on 25 May 2021.

Convertible notes payable

The remaining notes can be converted to ordinary shares by the noteholder delivering a conversion notice to the Company to convert all or part of the notes between the date of issue and 31 December 2021. A noteholder is not entitled to redeem the notes before 31 December 2021 and has no right to convert the notes unless and until the issuer obtains shareholder approval. If approved, the number of shares to be issued on conversion of the notes will be calculated by dividing the number of notes to be converted by $0.15. Interest is payable on the notes at a rate of 10% per annum with interest accruing daily. Given the conversion price, it is expected that the remaining notes payable will be repaid in full on or before 31 December 2021.

Independent auditor's review report

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), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, 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, 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 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 2021 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.

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

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 $434,083 (2020: $376,652) during the half year ended 30 June 2021 and, as of that date, the consolidated entity's liabilities exceeded its assets by $612,062 (2020: $1,339,887). 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.

Responsibility of Management for the 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 Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Company's financial position as at 30 June 2021 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.

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.
