Review of Operations and Likely Developments in the Future
An Industry is created
When MGM Wireless delivered messageyou™Schools in 2003, a new era in school-parent communications began. From that moment, manual notification of student absences became a thing of the past, and every school had a way to dramatically increase the efficiency and reliability of its communications. With our Student Attendance Communication Solution, there is no reason why any parent should not know immediately of the absence of their child from class. Information that once took days to pass on can now be transmitted in minutes, automatically, with dramatic savings in administration time and costs for schools.
From day one we realised that our success hinged on satisfying our customers. No matter how technologically advanced this product was, we knew we had to give schools exactly what they needed to function more efficiently. Every one of our systems is the result of extensive consultation with principals and school administrators to ensure the product is right for the school.
MGM Wireless is the undisputed leader in the industry it created.
Leader in our Market
MGM Wireless is the leader in a market that is barely tapped. Less than seven percent of approximately 3000 schools in Australia are currently using Student Attendance Communication Solutions.
Our systems are proven to deliver sustained improvements in attendance in the order of 30 to 80 percent as well as associated benefits to student safety and welfare.
Our aim is to continue to accelerate the rate of acceptance by introducing highly reliable and efficient solutions that are tailored to specific schools. By providing schools with a single source of software and support, we ensure the rapid conversion of new customers to the messageyou™Schools solution, and the continual strengthening of our leadership position.
An Integrated Solution
Our software is parameter driven, which means it easily adapts to the special requirements of different schools. It integrates smoothly with schools' host computers and existing software.
To build upon its outstanding early growth, MGM Wireless continues to make significant investments in research and development. The functionality, security and performance of existing products has been enhanced and improved, and after 15 months of development a new product, messageyou™Watchlists, was released in May this year.
messageyou™Watchlists works hand-in-glove with messageyou™Schools to provide superior monitoring and reporting of school attendance patterns, creating an integrated solution of significantly higher value to schools.
messageyou™Watchlists has dramatically increased the ability of school administrators to deal with student absences and lateness, and prioritise scarce school resources in supporting the most vulnerable students and families. The product has increased both buying demand and yield per system sold.
DIRECTORS' REPORT (cont.)
A Focus on Service
Customer support continues to be a top priority at MGM Wireless. Complete support services are available to every customer. These services include product installation, training, and maintenance.
Our systems provide an essential link between schools and information which is critical to their operations. It is our responsibility to make sure these systems work.
MGM Wireless backs its products with comprehensive service that is unique in the market. Schools appreciate the skills of dedicated consultants who work with them designing and installing systems, and who make sure the transition to these systems is simple and efficient. Our best-practice project management and implementation methodologies have resulted in MGM Wireless being strongly supported by the education community because we are reliable, helpful, and responsive to the needs of our customers.
Strong National Performance
Experience gained in our home state of South Australia has allowed MGM Wireless to move into other states and territories smoothly and swiftly. Over 90 percent of the company's income is now derived outside of South Australia - a significant difference from 12 months ago.
A licensed operator for Western Australia was appointed in the second quarter of 2005, to the strong satisfaction of both parties. This operator has now expanded into the Northern Territory.
A license was granted for Queensland in the fourth quarter of 2005, with very impressive initial results. The number of schools using the systems doubled in the first two months of operation, with the expectation of further strong growth in this area.
An International Opportunity
The Company's vision is to become the world leader. MGM Wireless has become clear market leader in Australia, but that does not mean we are content to rest. We expect an increasing share of our revenues to come from international sales as we continue to expand into selected world markets.
2005 has seen a expansion to the New Zealand market. We are currently tailoring our products and refining our services by working closely with a number of schools. We established that there is a very real need for our products in New Zealand, and early results indicate that successes similar to those in Australia can be expected.
Ezyimage
In June 2005, MGM Wireless entered into a 12 month service agreement with Elders Ltd to provide the Ezyimage broadband image hosting service. Under the terms of the agreement, Ezyimage will be available to all Elders direct and franchise offices, totalling over 650 nationally, to promote real estate properties through the use of online virtual tours. This agreement has resulted in all service delivery costs being met by Elders and the payment of monthly fees to MGM Wireless.
Management's discussion & analysis of financial condition and results of operations
The Directors are pleased to report revenues for the year ended 30 June 2005 of $1,079,960, representing an increase of 166% over the previous corresponding period.
The net loss before tax improved by 14% to $497,113 whilst the EBITDA improved by 33% to ($280,675). Working capital improved by 53% to $697,015 whilst cash holdings increased by 71% to $649,387.
Review of Operations and Performance
As previously reported, the Company's present and growing sales levels mean that MGM Wireless is now trading profitably.
The MGM Wireless management team has delivered strong revenue growth and has made significant investments in the Company's future.
DIRECTORS' REPORT (cont.)
During the year sales operations, both direct and under license (in West Australia, Northern Territory and Queensland), were established in all Australian states and territories. As a result, MGM Wireless now has a specialised, well-trained national sales force and channel that continues to grow from strength to strength. The Company has also successfully entered the New Zealand market.
The Company continued to make significant investments in new and ongoing R&D having spent $371,253 during the year or 34% of revenues. All R&D costs were expensed. The ongoing R&D has resulted in new product release and improved performance and security of the Company's messaging network and centre - which is now one of the largest application messaging service provider in Australia outside Telstra, Optus, Vodafone and Huchinson.
After 15 months of development, the Company ended the year on a high note with the release of a new product, messageyou™WatchLists, which features leading edge technology that sets a new standard in student attendance management and communication excellence.
messageyou™WatchLists, trialled in South Australia during the past 6 months and has now been launched across Australia. In combination with messageyou™Schools, messageyou™WatchLists has the potential to revolutionise the capacity of school administrators to prioritise scarce school resources in dealing with student absence and lateness. WatchLists enables persons of authority within and external to the school to support the most vulnerable students and families through a patented process of message data collation, data filters and exception alerts.
WatchLists has significantly enhanced the competitiveness of the Company's solutions and increased buying demand from schools. Yields per system sold have also improved. MGM Wireless has lodged patent applications for messageyou™WatchLists in Australia, New Zealand, United States of America, Canada and Europe. Australian Innovation Patents have been granted.
MGM Wireless's strength in innovation, and robust product and services portfolio are instrumental to the Company's success, and most importantly, to the success of our school customers who use MGM Wireless solutions every day to improve student attendance, safety and welfare. Schools across Australia continue to report significant and sustained improvements in student attendance as the result of using MGM Wireless products and services.
As previously announced, the financial results do not accurately reflect the underlying strong growth in sales, as most new sales were derived at a wholesale pricing level rather than the historically higher end user price level due to the Company now deriving most new business through its licensed operations.
The Company continues to build its recurring income stream through new contracts to schools throughout Australia and now New Zealand.
Significant Changes in the State of Affairs
On 23 December 2004, 17,500,000 ordinary shares were issued at an issue price of 2.5 cents per share, thereby raising $437,500 and 5,520,000 ordinary shares were issued in lieu of outstanding fees at an issue price of 2.5 cents per share.
In the opinion of the Directors, there were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company that occurred during the financial period under review, not otherwise disclosed in these financial statements and Directors' report.
Events subsequent to end of the financial year
Since the end of the financial year under review and the date of this report, there has not arisen any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, to significantly affect the operations of the consolidated entity, in subsequent financial years, other than as detailed in the Review of Operations

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MGM WIRELESS LIMITED
Scope
The financial report and directors' responsibility
The financial report comprises the statement of financial position, statement of financial performance, statement of cash flows, accompanying notes to the financial statements and the directors' declaration for MGM Wireless Limited (the Company) and the consolidated entity, for the year ended 30 June 2005. The consolidated entity comprises both the Company and the entities it controlled during that year.
The directors of the Company are responsible for preparing a financial report that gives a true and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. This includes responsibility for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and internal controls that are designed to prevent and detect fraud and error, and for the accounting policies and accounting estimates inherent in the financial report.
Audit Approach
We conducted an independent audit of the financial report in order to express an opinion on it to the members of the Company. Our audit was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, in order to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the financial report is free of material misstatement. The nature of an audit is influenced by factors such as the use of professional judgement, selective testing, the inherent limitations of internal control and the availability of persuasive rather than conclusive evidence. Therefore, an audit cannot guarantee that all material misstatements have been detected.
We performed procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including compliance with Accounting Standards in Australia and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, a view which is consistent with our understanding of the Company's and the consolidated entity's financial position and of their performance as represented by the results of their operations and cash flows.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2005
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 1.
$(a)$ Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, other mandatory professional reporting requirements (Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views) and the Corporations Act 2001.
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs and does not take into account changing money values or, except where stated, current valuations of non current assets. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis.
The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
$(b)$ Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of MGM Wireless Limited (the parent entity) and all entities which MGM Wireless Limited controlled from time to time during the year and at balance date.
Information from the financial statements of controlled entities is included from the date the parent entity obtains control until such time as control ceases. Where there is a loss of control of a controlled entity, the consolidated financial statements include the results for the part of the reporting period during which the parent entity has control.
Acquisitions of entities are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line dissimilar accounting policies which may exist.
All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in full on consolidation.
$(c)$ Income tax
The company adopts the liability method of tax effect accounting whereby the income tax expense shown in the statement of financial performance is based on the operating profit before income tax adjusted for any permanent differences.
Timing differences which arise due to the different accounting periods in which items of revenue and expense are included in the determination of operating profit before income tax and taxable income, are brought to account as either provision for deferred income tax or an asset described as future income tax benefit at the rate of income tax applicable to the period in which the benefit will be received or the liability will become payable.
Future income tax benefits are not brought to account unless realisation of the asset is assured beyond any reasonable doubt. Future income tax benefits in relation to tax losses are not brought to account unless there is virtual certainty of realisation of the benefit. The amount of these benefits is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income tax legislation and the anticipation that the company will derive sufficient future assessable income and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law to permit a future income tax benefit to be obtained.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2005
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
$(d)$ Cash and cash equivalents
Cash on hand and in banks and short-term deposits are stated at nominal value. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash includes cash on hand and in banks and investments in money market instruments, net of outstanding bank overdraft.
$(e)$ Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less a provision for any uncollectible debts. An estimate of doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred.
Receivables from related parties are recognised and carried at the nominal amount due. Interest is taken up as income on an accrual basis.
$(f)$ Investments
Investments in controlled entities are valued in the parent entity's financial statements at cost less amounts written off for permanent diminution in the value of investments. All other non-current investments are carried at the lower of cost and recoverable amount.
Plant and equipment $(q)$
Plant and equipment are brought to account at cost, less where applicable, any accumulated depreciation. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from those assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows which will be received from the assets employed and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have not been discounted to present values in determining recoverable amount.
$(h)$ Intangible assets
Intellectual property rights and website development costs are carried at cost and amortised on a straight line basis over the period of the expected benefit, not exceeding five years.
Recoverable amount of non-current assets $(i)$
The carrying amounts of non-current assets valued on a cost basis, including the intellectual property of the MSGUTM Messaging System ('the system'), are reviewed to determine whether they are in excess of their recoverable amount at reporting date. If the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to the lower amount. The write-down is expensed in the reporting period.
The Company's and consolidated entity's financial statements have been prepared taking into account the Directors' current assessment of the prospects for successful development, deployment and the commercialisation of the Company's and consolidated entity's messaging system. Recoverability of the Company's and consolidated entity's recorded amounts for non-current assets depends on the future events which involve risk and uncertainties.
These events include consumer acceptance of the messaging system and the achievement of the Company's and consolidated entity's business forecasts. The Directors have carefully considered the above factors and have reviewed the progress of the Company and consolidated entity in achieving these business plans and forecasts to date. At this time the Directors are of the view that the outlook for continued successful development, deployment and commercialisation of the Company's and consolidated entity's technology is positive and that the recorded amounts of the Company's and consolidated entity's non-current intangible assets are not stated in excess of their recoverable amounts. The Directors will continue to regularly monitor progress against plans and, where necessary, any required write-downs in the carrying value of these assets will be made.

For the year ended 30 June 2005
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
$\ddot{\textbf{n}}$ Trade and other pavables
Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are 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 consolidated entity.
Payables to related parties are carried at the principal amount. Interest, when charged, by the lender, is recognised as an expense on an accruats basis.
$(k)$ Employee benefits
Provision is made for employee entitlement benefits accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the reporting date. These benefits include wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave
Liabilities arising in respect to wages and salaries, annual leave and any other employee entitlements expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. All other employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided employees up to the reporting date. In determining the present value of future cash outflows, the interest rates attaching to government guaranteed securities which have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability are used.
$(1)$ Contributed equity
Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the company. Any costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction in the proceeds received.
$(m)$ Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Sale of Goods Control of the goods has passed to the buyer.
Interest
Control of a right to receive consideration for the provision of, or investment in, assets has been attained.
Dividends
Control of a right to receive consideration for the investment in assets is attained, usually evidenced by approval of the dividend at a meeting of shareholders.
$(n)$ Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to the Company for the reporting period, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Company, adjusted for any bonus issue
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the basic EPS earnings, adjusted by the after-tax of financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the effect of revenues and expenses of conversion to ordinary shares associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares adjusted for any bonus issues.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2005
$\ddot{\mathbf{1}}$ . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
Goods and Services Tax (GST) $(0)$
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST.
$(p)$ Comparative figures
Where required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for current financial year.

The future income tax benefit of $778,909 (2004: $695,606) which may be derived from such losses has not been carried forward as an asset in the statement of financial position and will only be obtained if:
- the company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit $(a)$ from the deductions for the loss to be realised;
- the company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the law; and $(b)$
- no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the company in realising the benefit from the deductions for the $(c)$ losses.

$(b)$ Credit risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for doubtful debts, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements.
$(c)$ Net fair values
The net fair value of financial assets and liabilities of the company approximates their carrying amount. The company has no financial assets and liabilities where the carrying amount exceeds the net fair value at balance date.
No financial assets and financial liabilities are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form, other than listed investments. The aggregate net fair values and carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities are disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements.
22. IMPACT OF ADOPTION OF AUSTRALIAN EQUIVALENTS TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
The Company is in the process of transitioning its accounting policies and financial reporting from current Australian Standards (AGAAP) to Australian equivalents of International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) which will be applicable for the financial year ended 30 June 2006. Priority has been given to the preparation of an opening balance sheet in accordance with AIFRS at 1 July 2004 being the Company's transition date to AIFRS. This will form the basis of accounting for AIFRS in the future, and is required when the Company prepares its first fully AIFRS compliant financial report for the year ended 30 June 2006.
Set out below are the key areas where accounting policies are expected to change on adoption of AIFRS and the Company's best estimate of the known or reliably estimated impact of the changes on total equity as at the date of transition and 30 June 2005.
The figures disclosed are management's best estimates of the quantitative impact of the changes as at the date of preparing the 30 June 2005 financial report. The actual effects of the transition to AIFRS may differ from the estimates disclosed due to (a) ongoing work being undertaken by the Company, (b) potential amendments to AIFRS's and Interpretations thereof being issued by the standard-setters and IFRIC, and (c) emerging and accepted practice in the interpretation and application of AIFRS and UIG Interpretations.
i) Share-Based Payments
Under AASB 2: Share-based Payments, the Company will be required to determine the fair value of options issued to employees as remuneration and recognise an expense in the Statement of Financial Performance. AASB 2 is not limited to options and also extends to other forms of equity-based remuneration. It applies to all share-based payments issued after 7 November 2002 which have not vested as at 1 January 2005.
For the year ended 30 June 2005, employee benefits expense and contributed equity will increase by $17,220 in the parent and consolidated entity representing the value of the options issued to directors during the financial year.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2005
IMPACT OF ADOPTION OF AUSTRALIAN EQUIVALENTS TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING 22. STANDARDS (Cont.)
Impairment of Assets ii)
Under AASB 136: Impairment of Assets, the recoverable amount of an asset is determined as the higher of fair value less costs to sell, and value in use. In determining value in use, projected future cash flows are discounted using a risk adjusted pre-tax discount rate and impairment is assessed for the individual asset or at the 'cash generating unit' level. A 'cash generating unit' is determined as the smallest group of assets that generates cash flows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. The current policy is to determine the recoverable amount of an asset on the basis of undiscounted net cash flows that will be received from the asset's use and subsequent disposal. It is likely that this change in accounting policy will lead to impairments being recognised more often.
The directors and management has reassessed its impairment testing policy and tested all assets in the consolidated entity for impairment as at 1 July 2004 and 30 June 2005.
It is not expected that there will be any material impact as a result of adoption of this Standard.
iii) Income Tax
Currently, the consolidated entity adopts the liability method of tax-effect accounting whereby the income tax expense is based on the accounting profit adjusted for any permanent differences. Timing differences are currently brought to account as either a provision for deferred income tax or future income tax benefit. Under AASB 112: Income Taxes, the entity will be required to adopt a balance sheet approach under which temporary differences are identified for each asset and liability rather than the effects of the timing and permanent differences between taxable income and accounting profit.
It is not expected that there will be any material impact as a result of adoption of this Standard.
