Correction of material adjustments and restatement of comparatives – in preparation of this 4D Half Year Report at 31 December 2022 the Directors resolved that there were some material errors in the historic accounting treatment of various items and have decided that these corrections should be made to restate prior year comparatives and ensure they are also reflected appropriately in the financial statements prepared as at 31 December 2022.

Revenue decrease – the half year saw a 26% decrease on PCP. This was predominantly due to the discontinuation of a lower profitable product line the Spacetalk Kids budget watch. This is due to be replaced with a new profitable version towards the end of FY2023.

Annual Recurring Revenue ("ARR") - Spacetalk has built a strong foundation for future sustainable growth with a current ARR of $7.4m as at 31 December 2022, an increase of 29% to PCP of $5.8m.

JumpySIM – JumpySIM continues to see strong growth with a growing positive cash impact over the half year. JumpySIM is expected to increase the annual revenue per user ("ARPU"), and provide an opportunity to upsell to existing customers and potential to roll out in other regions. After introducing JumpySIM (SIM card and mobile plans) in the USA, the Group launched JumpySIM in Australia (September 2022). From introduction, this product and mobile plans have been growing strongly.

Cost Reductions - This half year also saw the initiation of the first phase of cost reductions which is anticipated to save the Group an annualised $2.0m commencing in calendar year 2023.

Business Reset - During the half year the sustainability and financial strength of the Group were substantially improved through a combination of actions including cost reductions, debt refinancing, equity funding and working capital improvements.

Distribution Channels - The Group continues to work with distribution channels that we have established in Australia, Europe and North America. In addition, the Group is looking to further enhance its distribution channels in these respective regions, Australia, Europe and North America.

Supply Chain and Inventory - Spacetalk did not experience any supply chain disruptions during the half. The Group did exit out of a lower profitable product line the Spacetalk Kids budget watch. The budget watch will be replaced with a more profitable alternative anticipated for release late in the FY23 fiscal year.

Improved Working Capital Management - Focus on improved inventory management with smaller orders of watches more often when needed, direct consumer e-commerce sites, and the introduction of JumpySIM that allows for the improved cash flow as users often pay annually in advance.

Phased Out Kids Watch - During the half, the Group phased out its Spacetalk Kids watch and plans to close the temporary revenue gap with higher margin revenues such as JumpySIM. There was progress in enhancing future growth capabilities and stability of Spacetalk.

Budget Watch - The Group has announced that it is working on a budget watch for potential release late in the second half of the FY23 financial year.

Summary of financial position

As at 31 December 2022 Spacetalk held cash of $4.2m ($5.6m at 30 June 2022) and an increase of cash held of $2.7m as at 30 September 2022 (as announced in the 1Q23 Business Update).

During the half, the Group successfully raised $1.15m of new equity (before costs). As part of the new equity issue additional capital of $1.23m (before costs) was raised in February 2023 including the equity from shortfall placement to Directors of $230k.

In addition, during the half the group renegotiated its $5m debt facility with Pure Asset Management Pty Ltd resulting in lower interest rate, extended term for the second tranche of the loan and amended covenants.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS & BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS

During the half:

Chief Executive Officer change - As part of the transition, the former CEO/Managing Director Mr Fortunatow left the business on 7th October 2022. Mr Saurabh Jain took over the role of Acting CEO / Managing Director of Spacetalk in October of 2022 until the board appointment of Mr Simon Crowther as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Managing Director, effective 6 February 2023. As former CEO of Nearmap and Managing Director of Yamaha Motor Ventures, Mr Crowther brings a wealth of valuable knowledge and a growth mindset to Spacetalk.

Pure Loan Agreement Renegotiated – The Group renegotiated its debt facility with Pure Asset Management Pty Ltd, resulting in a lower interest rate and the repayment date extended for the second tranche of the loan.

Capital Raise - On the 23rd of November the Group announced a non-renounceable entitlement offer. This offer was closed on the 29th of December 2022 raising $1.15m (before costs). An additional $1.23m (before costs) was raised during the shortfall program in February 2023.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Acting CEO/Managing Director - Mr Saurabh Jain resigned as Acting CEO / Managing Director of Spacetalk on 5 February 2023 and returned to the Board of Spacetalk as a Non-Executive Director.

New CEO/Managing Director - Mr Simon Crowther was appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Managing Director effective 6 February 2023.

Spacetalk Entitlement Offer - The Company Entitlement Offer announced in November 2022 finalised a shortfall share issue in February 2023 resulting in additional $1.23m capital raised (before costs), representing 41,023,334 ordinary shares and 20,511,667 options. Included in the $1.23m is $230k received from the Directors of Spacetalk, representing 7,690,000 ordinary shares and 3,845,000 options. In addition, the shareholders have also approved the issuance of 826,024 performance rights to the directors of Spacetalk in February 2023.

Pure Asset Management Pty Ltd exercise warrant - On 6 February 2023 Pure Asset Management Pty Ltd exercised their existing warrant over 11 million shares. Consideration of $396,000 was received by the Company in February as a result of this exercise.

OUTLOOK

With Mr Simon Crowther joining as CEO, Spacetalk is reviewing it's strategy. While still under development, it is expected we will focus increasingly on:

Brand – Building upon Spacetalk's strong brand equity, we will align our ecosystem of products around this central brand.

Digital Channels – Leveraging our existing digital footprint, and developing new forms of digital engagement to increase reoccurring revenue from these channels.

Independent Auditor Review Report

SPACETALK LTD

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 Spacetalk Ltd (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 31 December 2022, 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 Spacetalk Ltd 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 31 December 2022 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 consolidated entity in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of 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 (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 1.5 in the financial report, which indicates the company incurred a loss after tax for the six month period to 31 December 2022 of $9,236,591 and net cash outflows from operating activities of $958,617. As stated in Note 1.6 these events, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1.6, 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.

Independent Auditor Review Report

Emphasis of Matter – Restatement of Comparatives

We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial report which details corrections of material errors in a prior period. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Matter

The financial report of Spacetalk Ltd, for the year ended 30 June 2022, was audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on that report on 30 September 2022.

Responsibility of Management for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the consolidated entity 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. 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 consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2022 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.

Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. The half-year report does not include notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report and shall be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial report.

The annual financial report of the company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2022 is available on the Company's website at www.spacetalkwatch.com.

1.2 BASIS OF PREPARATION

The Consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half-year financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the company's 2022 annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2022 except for the impact of the Standards and Interpretations described below. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards.

1.3 AMENDMENTS TO ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND NEW INTERPRETATIONS THAT ARE MANDATORILY EFFECTIVE FOR THE CURRENT REPORTING PERIOD

There are none that have a material impact for the Group to consider for the reporting period ended 31 December 2022.

1.4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

When preparing the interim financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management.

The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the interim financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the Group's last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022, except for the changes disclosed in Note 2.

In preparing the interim financial statements, the Group has identified material corrections related to the accounting treatments of various items in the Group's financial statements. This has resulted in some adjustments which are identified in Note 2. Restatement of comparatives.

1.5 GOING CONCERN

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

The Group incurred a loss after tax for the six month period to 31 December 2022 of $9,236,591 (31 Dec 2021: $1,816,242) and net cash outflows from operating activities of $958,617 (31 Dec 2021: $3,636,025). These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast doubt about the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern.

The Directors are confident of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern for the following reasons:

  • During the half year to 31 December 2022 the company finalised the restructure of its debt facility on more favourable terms, with a reduced interest rate, extended payment date on the second tranche of its debt and improved convenants appropriate for the business.
  • In December 2022 the Group closed a non renounceable entitlement offer raising $1.15m (before costs). An additional $1.23m (before costs) was raised during the shortfall program in February 2023, and an additional $0.4m was raised in February 2023 when Pure Asset Management exercised its warrant for 11 million shares.
  • The Board has appointed a new CEO, Simon Crowther. As former CEO of Nearmap and Managing Director of Yamaha Motor Ventures, Mr Crowther brings a wealth of valuable knowledge and a growth mindset to Spacetalk.
  • The Group continues to develop new products with two new devices planned for introduction over this calendar year.
  • The Group has a history of successfully raising capital, should future circumstances require this.
  • The directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Group will have sufficient cash flows to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for the 12 month period from the date of signing this financial report.

Based on the cash flow forecasts and other factors referred to above, the directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate. In particular, given the Group's history of successfully raising capital to date, the directors are confident of the Group's ability to raise additional funds as and when they are required.

2. RESTATEMENT OF COMPARATIVES

CORRECTION OF A MATERIAL ERROR IN INCOME TAX EXPENSE

During the review of tax balances for the half year ended 31 December 2022, it was discovered that in 2021-22 a journal to income tax expense was incorrectly posted. This had resulted in an overstatement of the income tax benefit, and an understatement of foreign currency translation reserve of $411,963. Management have restated the comparatives and the following adjustment has been recorded:

• a decrease to income tax benefit and an increase to foreign currency translation reserve at 30 June 2022, representing the incorrectly recognised income tax benefit of $411,963;

CORRECTION OF A MATERIAL ERROR IN DEFERRED TAX ASSET

During the review of the deferred tax asset for the half year ended 31 December 2022, it was discovered that an error occurred in recognising the deferred tax asset balance of $1,100,272 at 30 June 2022. Having reviewed the probability of future taxable profits the Directors believe that the deferred tax asset should not have been recognised as at 30 June 2022 because it was not probable that there would be sufficient taxable profits to utilise the benefit based on forecasts available at that time. Management have restated the comparatives and the following adjustments have been recorded:

• a decrease to the deferred tax asset and an increase to the accumulated loss at 30 June 2022, representing the derecognised deferred tax asset of $1,100,272.

CORRECTION OF A MATERIAL ERROR IN THE ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF SCHOOL LICENCE FEES

During the half-year ended 31 December 2022, management discovered that the revenue recognition of school licence fees was not in accordance with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue was recognised when the invoice was issued and not as the performance obligations were satisfied over time. This resulted in an overstatement of revenue of $48,236 in 2021-22 and $660,973 in previous periods. Management have restated the comparatives and the following adjustments have been recorded:

  • decrease revenue by $48,236 at 30 June 2022, representing the overstated school licence fees;
  • increase unearned income by $709,209 at 30 June 2022, representing the unearned income of school licence fees;
  • increase accumulated loss by $660,973 at 30 June 2022, representing the reversed revenue recognised in previous periods.
  • the impact of revenue on the comparative period 6 months to 31 December 2021 is an increase of $130,083.

CORRECTION OF A MATERIAL ERROR IN THE ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF SALES RETURNS

During the review of Spacetalk wearable devices sales returns for the half year ended 31 December 2022, it was discovered that in 1Q2023 Returns received post 30 June 2022 were not provided for in the FY22 accounts. The company did not account for returns in accordance with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers as at 30 June 2022. This resulted in an overstatement of revenue of $326,887 and cost of sales of $178,382 in 2021-22. Management have restated the comparatives and the following adjustments have been recorded:

  • decrease revenue and increase provision for sales returns by $326,887 at 30 June 2022, representing the unrecognised sales return of wearable devices; and
  • decrease cost of sales and increase inventories by $178,382 at 30 June 2022, representing the cost of returned wearable devices.

CORRECTION OF A MATERIAL ERROR IN THE ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF SALES REBATES

During the review of Spacetalk wearable devices sales rebates for the half year ended 31 December 2022, it was discovered that there was a backlog of rebate invoices relating to 2Q2022 which are under contractual terms in customer agreements, and had not been provided for. This had resulted in an overstatement of revenue of $170,224 in the year ended 30 June 2022. Management have restated the comparatives and the following adjustments have been recorded:

• decrease revenue and increase provision for rebates by $170,224 at 30 June 2022, representing the unrecognised sales rebates.

These errors have been rectified by restating each of the affected financial statement line items for prior reported periods as follows.

In November 2022, the Company restructured its facility agreement with Pure Asset Management Pty Ltd (Pure AM) to extend the repayment dates of the facility to 1 July 2024 and 20 March 2025 for the $3 million and $2 million facilities. As part of this restructure, Spacetalk has agreed to pay an establishment fee of 1.5% of the total facility and issue of an additional 90 million warrants. The restructure resulted in a substantial modification of the existing loan outstanding.

As a result of the modification, previous transaction costs remaining on the loan at the date of modification were accelerated to the profit and loss and the new establishment fee and issue of the additional warrants were also recognised to the profit loss as part of the costs relating to the debt restructure.

As part of the loan facility disclosed in note 9, the Company has issued additional warrants to Pure AM that can be exercised for a total of 90 million fully paid-up shares. The warrants can be exercised at any point of time up to 13 March 2025. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value through profit or loss and have an exercise price of $0.06.

Existing warrants issued as part of the original loan facility with Pure AM could be exercised for a total of 11 million fully paid-up shares. The warrants can be exercised at any point of time up to 11 March 2025. During the period, the warrants exercise price was adjusted from $0.2169 to $0.034 resulting from the Company's November 2022 capital raising and share purchase plan, which triggered a repricing clause within the Warrant Deed. The warrants have been classified as a liability financial instrument due to the fact that they have a variable exercise price.

This derivative financial liability has been valued using quoted market rates (level 2 input). This valuation technique maximises the use of observable market data where it is available and relies as little as possible on entity specific estimates.

During the half year there was a gain on fair value of derivatives of $2,364,293 recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and Comprehensive Income, as a result of accounting standards requirement to fair value warrants and derivative liabilities related to the restructured debt facility with Pure Asset Management ("Pure"). This amount consisted of $629,685 related to the existing warrant to Pure for 11 million shares together with $1,734,608 related to the derivative liability for the warrant of 90 million shares as part of the restructured debt facility but subject to shareholder approval (received 15 February 2023).
