Review of Operations

During the first six months of the financial year ended 30 June 2009, as stated in the 2009 Half Year Report, ATG expanded its distribution network into China and United Arab Emirates (UAE) regions. In December 2008, ATG appointed Huachuang Zhenxin Automotive Technology Development Co Ltd as the exclusive distributor of ATG’s Sprintex® Superchargers products in Greater China Region. It also signed a prototype evaluation agreement with Al Futtaim Motors with a view to securing exclusive distribution agreements for Sprintex® Supercharger Systems in the UAE.

ATG entered into initial feasibility studies with a party in China in respect of setting up volume production facilities and also entered into its first significant agreement with a Chinese Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).

ATG has built and commissioned a Society of Australian Engineers (SAE) compliant testing facility for automotive and industrial compressor applications.

ATG has received certification to ISO 9001/2008 and also achieved TUV certification (“Technischer Überwachungsverein” German safety and standards institution).

The Company continues to receive high levels of enquiry for its patented green Sprintex® Supercharging technology.

In the second half of the financial year ended 30 June 2009, ATG continued to expand its international distribution network. In February 2009, ATG signed a distribution agreement with a German Automotive Group, IAP Project Management GmbH for the distribution of ATG’s Sprintex® supercharger products in Europe.

ATG has completed the development of the Sprintex® Series 5 superchargers and has filed an application for the patent on the compressor system.

Financial Review

The financial results for the 2009 financial year reflect tremendous research and development activities in the commercialisation and product testing of the new range of patented Sprintex® Superchargers as well as the negative impacts from the global financial crisis on automotive industry as a whole.

Operating results

The loss for the financial year was $5,793,738 when compared to a loss of $5,457,159 in the 2008 financial year, Sales for the year 2009 were $463,717 (2008, $580,863), representing a decrease of 20%. This was largely a result of continuous significant market testing and development of new product range during the second half of 2008 which continued to impact on sales revenues. It is evidenced by the dramatic increase in research and development cost by 100% in 2009. This trend is expected to be reversed as new products are released or scheduled to release to the markets in first half of the 2010 financial year.

Gross profit for the year ended 30 June 2009 was $42,075, compared to $279,221 in 2008. The reduction in gross profit was contributed by a vigorous discount sales program on Vee Two aftermarket and performance motorcycle accessories during the second half of the financial year as a result of strategic decision to focus on the development and manufacture of Sprintex® products in the coming year.

Results for 2009 year were also affected by:

  • As a result of the strategic decision to have future focus on the development and manufacturing of Sprintex® products, provision for inventory was increased substantially in the amount of $653,442 (2008: $135,335)

  • Foreign exchange loss of $1,950 during the year when compared to foreign exchange gain of $132,352 in 2008

  • Research and development expenses increased by $1,259,278 during the year

  • Recognition of share based payment of $57,500

  • Increased marketing costs incurred by marketing consultants in Europe, quality control costs relating to ISO 9001/2008 compliance and audit costs and product quality assurance costs incurred in Europe

  • Increased costs in trade mark and patent management

Outlook

The severity of the present economic global crisis and its effect on the automotive industry in turn affected the Company’s future performance to an extent. However, management has plans to respond to the difficult operating environment by making future improvements in efficiency and implement cost reductions. These measures include:

  • Implement restructuring programme to reduce operating cost base

  • Cost reduction in all areas, particularly in areas that do not contribute to sales revenue

  • Renegotiation of supply contracts or source alternative supply resources

  • Outsourcing of manufacturing at lower costs; and

  • Expanding manufacturing facilities in countries with lower cost base

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL REPORT (Continued) 30 JUNE 2009

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The financial report for the year ended 30 June 2009 have been prepared in accordance with Australian equivalents to the International Financial Reporting Standards (AIRFSs), other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Urgent Issuers Group Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001 .

This financial report does not include notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report.

It is recommended that the preliminary final report be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2008 and considered together with any public announcements made by the Company during the year in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations of the ASX listing rules.

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year. Certain comparatives for the year ended 30 June 2008 have been reclassified where necessary for consistency with current year disclosures.

2. Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial report has been prepared on the historical cost basis except for land and buildings which have been measured at fair value.

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities.

Going concern

The consolidated entity has net assets of $1,517,480 as at 30 June 2009 (2008: $6,637,149) and incurred an operating loss of $5,793,738 (2008: $5,457,159) for the year ended 30 June 2009. The consolidated entity's ability to continue as a going concern and meet its debts and future commitments as and when they fall due is dependent on a number of factors, including:

  • the completion of the issuance of Placement Shares and Entitlement Issue as further disclosed in note 9 to the financial report;

  • the ability to raise sufficient working capital to ensure the continued implementation of the Company’s long term business plan; and

  • delivery of existing and new products through the Group’s distribution network to generate sales revenues and positive cash flows.

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. In arriving at this position the directors have had regard to the fact that the Company has, or in the directors’ opinion will have access to, sufficient cash to fund administrative and other committed expenditure for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of this report. Please refer to note 9 to the financial report for disclosure of funds raised subsequent to the balance sheet date.

Should the Group not achieve the matters set out above, there is significant uncertainty whether it will be able to continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due and realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.

3. Segment Information

5. Loss per share

The calculation of basic loss per share is based on the net loss from ordinary activities attributable to equity holders of the Company for the year of $5,793,738 (2008: $5,457,159) and the weighted average of 104,390,494 (2008: 62,173,045) ordinary shares in issue during the year.

Diluted loss per share amount for the year was the same as the basic loss per share as the share options outstanding as at 30 June 2009 had an anti-dilutive effect on the basic loss per share.
