NON-BINDING ORDINARY RESOLUTION 1: Directors’ Remuneration Report
1.1 General
The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted must be put to the Shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.
7
The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company. The Remuneration Report is part of the Directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ending 30 June 2014.
A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting.
Under the Corporations Act, if 25% or more of votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, Shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those annual general meetings on a resolution (a "spill resolution") that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of the Company's Directors (other than the Managing Director and CEO) must stand for re-election.
The Company’s Remuneration Report did not receive a “no” vote of 25% or more at the Company’s previous annual general meeting. Accordingly, the spill resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

3 Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be voted and will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.
4 The Proxy Form notes it is the Chair’s intention to vote all undirected proxies in favour of all Resolutions.
ORDINARY RESOLUTION 2: Re-election of Jorge Nigaglioni as a Director
Clause 11.4 of the Company’s Constitution requires that at every Annual General Meeting of the Company one-third of the Directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) shall retire from office. The Directors to retire are those who have been longest in office since their last election. A retiring Director is eligible for re-election.
Accordingly, Jorge Nigaglioni retires by way of rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for reelection as a Director of the Company.
Information on the skills and experience of Mr Nigaglioni is set out in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report.
The Board has considered Mr Nigaglioni’s independence and considers that he is not an independent Director.
8
2.1 Recommendation
The Directors (other than Mr Nigaglioni because of his interest in this Resolution) support the reelection of Mr Nigaglioni and recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
ORDINARY RESOLUTION 3: Ratification of Issue of Shares
As announced to ASX on 27 June 2014, the Company issued 18,024,735 shares as a result of the conversion of a $720,989 convertible note at 4 cents per share.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that the Company must not issue or agree to issue, subject to specified exceptions, during any 12 month period any equity securities which, when aggregated with the number of other securities issued within that 12 month period exceeds 15% of the number of ordinary shares on issue at the beginning of that 12 month period, unless the issue falls within one of the nominated exceptions, or the prior approval of members of the Company at a general meeting is obtained.
Listing Rule 7.4 provides an issue made within the 15% limit will be treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 if subsequently approved by shareholders, thereby ‘refreshing’ the company’s ability to issue shares within the 15% limit, and restoring the company’s ability to make placements within that limit (if that is thought desirable) without the need for shareholder approval.
While the Shares described in this Resolution 3 have been issued within the 15% limit, the Company seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of those Shares for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.4 so that the Company’s ability to issue securities will be refreshed and it will have the flexibility to issue further securities should the need or opportunity arise.
In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the ratification of the issue of the Shares the subject of this Resolution 3:
-
(a) The Shares were issued to Dutch Ink (2010) Pty Ltd, which is not a related party of the Company;
-
(b) the number of Shares issued by the Company was 18,024,735;
-
(c) the Shares were issued at a deemed issue price of 4.0 cents per Share;
-
(d) the Shares issued rank pari passu with the Company’s existing Shares;
-
(e) the Shares were issued pursuant to the conversion of a $720,989 convertible note; and
-
(f) no funds were raised from the issue of the shares, however a convertible note with a face value of $ 720,989 was exercised.
ORDINARY RESOLUTION 4: Ratification of Issue of Options
As announced to ASX on 15 May 2014, the Company issued 20,000,000 Options to the underwriter of the Entitlements Issue undertaken by the Company. The Options are exercisable at 4 cents each if exercised on or before 9 November 2014 and 6 cents each if exercised after 9 November 2014 and on or before 9 May 2015.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that the Company must not issue or agree to issue, subject to specified exceptions, during any 12 month period any equity securities which, when aggregated with the number of other securities issued within that 12 month period exceeds 15% of the number of ordinary
9
shares on issue at the beginning of that 12 month period, unless the issue falls within one of the nominated exceptions, or the prior approval of members of the Company at a general meeting is obtained.
Listing Rule 7.4 provides an issue made within the 15% limit will be treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 if subsequently approved by shareholders, thereby ‘refreshing’ the company’s ability to issue shares within the 15% limit, and restoring the company’s ability to make placements within that limit (if that is thought desirable) without the need for shareholder approval.
While the Shares described in this Resolution 4 have been issued within the 15% limit, the Company seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of those Shares for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.4 so that the Company’s ability to issue securities will be refreshed and it will have the flexibility to issue further securities should the need or opportunity arise.
In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the ratification of the issue of the Shares the subject of this Resolution 4:
-
(a) the Options were issued to Truestone Capital Limited, which is not a related party of the Company;
-
(b) the number of Options issued by the Company was 20,000,000;
-
(c) the Options were issued for $Nil cash consideration;
-
(d) the Options were issued as part consideration for the underwriting of an Entitlements Issue undertaken by the Company;
-
(e) the Options are exercisable at 4 cents each if exercised on or before 9 November 2014 and 6 cents each if exercised after 9 November 2014 and on or before 9 May 2015, all other terms and conditions of the Options are contained in Appendix 1; and
-
(f) no funds were raised from this issue as the Options were issued as part consideration for the underwriting of an Entitlements Issue.
SPECIAL RESOLUTION 5: Approval of 10% Placement Capacity
5.1 General
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital over a period up to 12 months after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Capacity ).
The Company is an Eligible Entity.
If Shareholders approve Resolution 5, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out below).
The effect of Resolution 5 will be to allow the Directors to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.
10
Resolution 5 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 5 for it to be passed.
5.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity’s 15% annual placement capacity.
An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:
-
(a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
-
(b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.
The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of approximately $16.8 million.
Any Equity Securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has one class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code MBO).
The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:
(A x B) – C
Where:
-
A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
(i) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(ii) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;
-
(iii) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under this rule; and
-
(iv) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.
B is 10%.
- C is the number of Equity Securities issued, or agreed to be issued, under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
5.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 5:
11
(a) Minimum Price
The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
(i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(b) Date of Issue
The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) 12 months after the date of this Meeting; and
-
(ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid).
(c) Risk of voting dilution
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.
If Resolution 5 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.
The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice.
The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

| Raised | $1,680,410 | $3,360,820 | $6,721,640 |
The number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
The current shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at 1 October 2014.
-
No options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. That is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 1 October 2014.
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.
-
The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
13
Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:
-
(i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
(ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.
(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity
The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
-
(i) as cash consideration in which case the Company may use funds raised for the acquisition of new assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued growth of its current activities and general working capital;
-
(ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.
(e) Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity
The Company’s allocation policy for the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will be dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of the proposed placement(s).
The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:
-
(i) the purpose of the issue;
-
(ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
-
(iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
-
(v) prevailing market conditions; and
-
(vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new assets or investments, it is likely that the recipients under the 10% Placement Capacity will be vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.
14
5.4 Previous Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
The Company has not previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A.
- 5.5 Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A
When the Company issues Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity, it must give to ASX:
-
(a) a list of the recipients of the Equity Securities and the number of Equity Securities issued to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and
-
(b) the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.
5.5 Voting Exclusion
A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, as at the date of this notice of meeting no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 5.
ORDINARY RESOLUTION 6: Approval to Issue Performance Share Rights
Resolution 6 seeks Shareholders approval for the issue of 10,000,000 Performance Share Rights. The rights are to be issued to full time and part time employees of consultants of the Company as determined by the Board.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to issue the Performance Share Rights without impacting on the Company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities without Shareholder approval in any 12 month period.
The objective of the Performance Share Rights is to attract, motivate and retain key employees and consultants and it is considered by the Company that the issue of the Performance Share Rights will provide selected employees with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company, with terms aligned to the performance of the Company.
A summary of the key terms and conditions of the Performance Share Rights is set out in Appendix 2.
In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6:
-
(a) the maximum number of Performance Share Rights to be issued is 10,000,000;
-
(b) the Performance Share Rights will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Performance Share Rights will occur progressively;
15
-
(c) the Performance Share Rights will be issued for nil cash consideration as will be issued to provide selected employees or consultants of the Company with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company, with terms aligned to the performance of the Company;
-
(d) the Performance Share Rights will be issued to full time and part time employees or consultants of the Company as determined by Directors. The Directors are yet to determine to whom the Performance Share Rights will be issued but these persons will not be related parties of the Company;
-
(e) terms and conditions of the Performance Share Rights is set out in Appendix 2; and
-
(f) no funds will be raised from the issue of the Performance Share Rights as the Performance Share Rights are being issued to provide selected employees and consultants of the Company with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company, with terms aligned to the performance of the Company.
ORDINARY RESOLUTION 7: Approval to Issue Performance Share Rights to a Director
The Company proposes, subject to Shareholder approval to issue 5,000,000 Performance Share Rights to Mr Jorge Nigagioni (or his nominee), a Director of the Company on the terms and conditions set out below.
A summary of the key terms and conditions of the Performance Share Rights is set out in Appendix 2.
For a public company to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in Section 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The grant of Performance Share Rights constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Nigaglioni is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.
In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.
It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Chapter 2E Shareholder approval is sought for the grant of Performance Share Rights to Mr Nigaglioni.
Shareholder Approval (Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11)
Pursuant to, and in accordance with, the requirements of Sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed grant of Performance Share Rights under Resolution 7:
16
-
(a) the related party is Mr Jorge Nigaglioni, who is a related party by virtue of being a Director;
-
(b) the maximum number of Performance Share Rights (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) to be granted to the Related Party is 5,000,000;
-
(c) the Performance Share Rights will be granted to the Mr Nigaglioni no later than 1 month after the date of the Annual General Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is anticipated the Performance Share Rights will be issued on that date;
-
(d) the Performance Share Rights will be granted for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised;
-
(e) the indicative value of the Performance Share Rights ( based on a share price of 4.8 cents on 10 October 2014) is $199,057and the pricing methodology is set out in Appendix 3;
-
(f) the relevant interest of the Mr Nigaglioni in securities of the Company is 636,415 Shares, 333,334 Performance C Class Shares and 5,000,000 Share Rights that will convert to Shares should the 5 day VWAP equal 10 cents and Mr Nigaglioni remains an employee.
-
(g) Mr Nigaglioni received remuneration for the previous financial year ended 30 June 2014 of $ 245,802 and the proposed remuneration and emoluments to be received for the current financial year is $180,000, other than as set out in this Explanatory Statement, Mr Nigaglioni has not received any other emoluments from the Company;
-
(h) if the Performance Share Rights granted to Mr Nigaglioni are exercised, a total of 5,000,000 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 350,085,416 to 355,085,416 (assuming that no other Options are exercised and no other Shares issued) with the effect that the share holding of existing shareholders would be diluted by 1.4%.
-
(i) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the finalisation of this Notice of Annual General Meeting (being 10 October 2014) is set out below:

$0.066 $0.02 $0.048 |

-
(j) the primary purpose of the issue of the Performance Share Rights is to provide a market linked incentive to Mr Nigaglioni to motivate and reward his performance in his roles as a Director and CFO;
-
(k) Mr Nigaglioni declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 7 due to Mr Nigaglioni’s material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that Mr Nigaglioni is to be granted Performance Share Rights in the Company should Resolution 7 be passed.
-
(l) Mr Gaunt and Sir McClement recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7 for the following reasons:
17
-
(i) the grant of Performance Share Rights to Mr Nigaglioni, in particular the vesting conditions of the Performance Share Rights, will align the interests of the Related Parties with those of Shareholders;
-
(ii) the grant of the Performance Share Rights is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to Mr Nigaglioni; and
-
(iii) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or opportunities foregone by the Company in granting the Performance Share Rights) upon the terms proposed;
-
(m) in forming their recommendations, each Director considered the experience of Mr Nigaglioni, the current market price of Shares, the current market practices when determining the number of Performance Share Rights to be granted; and
-
(n) the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass the Resolution.
Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Performance Share Rights to Mr Nigaglioni as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Performance Share Rights to Mr Nigaglioni will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company’s annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.
ORDINARY RESOLUTIONS 8 AND 9: Grant of Options to Directors
On 3 October 2014 the Board of the Company resolved, subject to obtaining shareholder approval, to issue 34,000,000 Options ( Director Options ) to the Company’s managing director, Mr Ken Gaunt, and Chairman of the Company Sir Tim McClement on the terms and conditions set out below.
For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval, unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act. The issue of the Director Options constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Gaunt and Sir McClement are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
In addition, Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in Listing Rule 10.12 applies.
It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the grant of Director Options to the Related Parties.
18
Shareholder Approval (Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11)
Pursuant to, and in accordance with, the requirements of Sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed grant of Director Options:
-
(a) the Related Parties are Mr Ken Gaunt and Sir Tim Clement and they are related parties by virtue of being Directors;
-
(b) the maximum number of Director Options (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) to be granted to the Related Parties is:
-
(i) 30,000,000 Director Options to Mr Gaunt; and

NOTE: Mr Gaunt’s existing options in the Company will be cancelled following the issue of the Director Options.
-
(c) the options are exercisable at 2.1 cents each for Mr Gaunt’s options and 2.7 cents each for Sir McClement’s options, on or before 31 January 2018. All other terms and conditions of the Director Options are outlined in Appendix 1;
-
(d) the Board acknowledges that it is not normal for options to be issued that are in the money at the date of issue. The Board’s preference is to make adjustments to total remuneration by increasing base salary, however at a time where funds are limited the issue of the Director Options on the terms proposed enables the Company to bring total remuneration into line with that of comparable companies;
-
(e) the Director Options will be granted to the Related Party no later than 1 month after the date of the General Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is anticipated the Director Options will be issued on one date;
-
(f) the Director Options will be granted for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised;
-
(g) the indicative value of the Director Options (based on a share price of 4.8 cents on 10 Octobe 2014) is $990,000 for Mr Gaunt and $124,696 for Sir McClement and the pricing methodology is set out in Appendix 3;
-
(h) the relevant interest of the Related Parties in securities of the Company is set out below:

Notes:
1 Options exercisable at 2.1 cents subject to satisfaction of vesting condition of 5 day VWAP of the Company’s Shares exceeding $0.10 each on or before 31 August 2015. NOTE: These options will be cancelled upon the issue of the Director Options.
2 Options exercisable at 2.7 cents subject to satisfaction of vesting condition of 5 day VWAP of the Company’s Shares exceeding $0.10 each on or before 1 October 2015
19
(i) the remuneration and emoluments from the Company to the Related Parties for the previous financial year and the proposed remuneration and emoluments for the current financial year are set out below:
| Related Party | Current Financial Year |
Previous Financial Year |
|---|---|---|
| Ken Gaunt | 180.000 | 362,334 |
| Tim McClement | 120,000 | 144,188 |
other than as set out in this Explanatory Statement, the Related Party has not received any other emoluments from the Company;
(j) if the Director Options granted to the Related Parties are exercised, a total of 34,000,00Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 350,085,416 to 384,085,416 (assuming that no other Options are exercised and no other Shares issued) with the effect that the share holding of existing shareholders would be diluted 8.85%.
The market price for Shares during the term of the Director Options would normally determine whether or not the Director Options are exercised. If, at any time any of the Director Options are exercised and the Shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than the exercise price of the Director Options, there may be a perceived cost to the Company.
(k) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the date of finalisation of this Notice of Annual General Meeting (being 10 October 2014) is set out below:

(l) the Board acknowledges the grant of Related Party Options to Sir McClement is contrary to Recommendation 8.2 of The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (3[rd] Edition) as published by The ASX Corporate Governance Council. However, the Board considers the grant of Director Options to SirMcClement reasonable in the circumstances for the reason set out in paragraph (m) below;
-
(m) the primary purpose of the issue of the Director Options is to provide a market linked incentive to the Related Parties to motivate and reward the performance of the Related Parties in their respective roles as Directors;
-
(n) Mr Gaunt declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 8 due to Mr Gaunt’s material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that Mr Gaunt is to be granted Director Options in the Company should Resolution 8 be passed. However, in respect of Resolution 9, Mr Gaunt recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9 for the following reasons:
-
(i) the grant of Director Options to the Related Party will align the interests of the Related Party with those of Shareholders;
-
(ii) the grant of the Director Options is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the
20
Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to the Related Party; and
-
(iii) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or opportunities foregone by the Company in granting the Director Options upon the terms proposed;
-
(o) Sir McClement declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 9 due to Sir McClement’s material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that Sir McClement is to be granted Director Options in the Company should Resolution 9 be passed.

-
(b) if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;

the chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of voting on the resolution at the meeting.

A member of the Key Management Personnel or a Closely Related Party of such a member (the voter ) may cast a vote on an advisory resolution to adopt a remuneration report as a proxy if the vote is not cast on their behalf and either:
-
(a) the voter is appointed as a proxy by writing that specifies the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; or
-
(b) the voter is the Chair and the appointment of the Chair as proxy:
-
(i) does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; and
-
(ii) expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even if the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel for the Company, or if the Company is part of a consolidated entity, for the entity.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
2014 was a great year for Mobilarm. The combination of changes to the business model, launch of new products and focus on customers allowed us to significantly grow the business in FY2014 to achieve record performance across the board and build a business to keep growing in FY2015.
Our range of sMRT products, including the sMRT AU10 and sMRT V100 are leading the industry in performance, a key aspect when it comes to saving lives. We have also introduced other solutions to the market to complement our world leading beacons, such as the sMRT Station all in one fast rescue station, the sMRT Dial automated system and our range of sMRT Jackets specifically designed to optimise the performance of our beacons.
We had our maiden rental orders in FY2014, shifting our dependency from one off sales to a lifecycle sale of product and service. Our sMRT rental program continues to grow today, almost doubling in size since the end of the 2014 financial year.
Our focus in FY2015 is to continue with our growth. North America is a key market that we will spend more effort on growing during FY2015. We will continue to improve our efficiencies in our operations in order to improve both our costs, but more importantly our customer service.
Offshore Oil & Gas and Wind farms
The offshore Oil & Gas industry and offshore Renewable Energy industry continue to be key markets for the Group. We are excited to finally introduce the sMRT V100X product in FY2015. This globally certified zone 1 beacon will deliver the best performance for the Oil & Gas segment without geographical restrictions. We continue to push for further adoption in Nigeria and Mexico.
Commercial Marine
We continue to sell into this market, especially fishing which continues to recognise its very hazardous environment. Safety is important in this tight margin market, so we need to keep our focus to deliver safety to the highest standard in the most cost-effective way to these customers.
Defence
The Group retains its focus in this market. The sector is very cyclical and we continue to interact with customers be be ready with our products for both their surface and underwater needs.
Government & Regulatory
We continue to work with government and regulatory agencies around the world to provide the best level of safety.

==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
Summary
Financial year 2014 was a stepping stone for the Company. We grew our sales, we have shown our capability to generate operating cash flows as evidenced in the last quarter of financial year 2014, we have shown that customers value the position we have taken on providing the highest level of safety and we have set our sights on a greater financial year 2015. As we grow our rental portfolio we will continue to have capital requirements to increase the size of our rental pool, but as the rental book grows the business will generate more cash on a recurring basis, stabilising results further and providing internal funds for growth.
Our company culture has been a key element to get the results to date. We are focused on succeeding, on providing the absolute best solution for the man in the water and on never compromising on safety.
We have started financial year 2015 with two large deals that further validate our strategy. We are confident on delivering a record 2015 financial year. Our team is not only committed to the big challenge for financial year 2015, but we also very are excited about the future.
The continued support of our shareholders has also been fundamental. We have had some positive feedback on our last quarter’s results and we understand the path has taken a bit longer, but we have set the Company up for longer-term success rather than a quick win.
The Board of Directors is extremely pleased with the results achieved this year and is looking forward to continue the growth and positive results in financial year 2015 and onwards.

Operating Results for the Year
Operations of the Group
The loss of the group after providing for income tax amounted to ($63,392) (2013: Loss of $1,297,765), a decrease of 95%. The Group increased sales to $5,816,188 in 2014 as compared to $4,279,624 in 2013, an increase of 36%. The increase is primarily due to introduction of our new products portfolio of sMRT products and the introduction of our sMRT rental program. This is further evidenced by the growth in orders received during the year as follows:
==> picture [239 x 145] intentionally omitted <==
| FY 2014 | FY 2013 | |
|---|---|---|
| Outright Purchases | $5,179,537 | $4,795,974 |
| Rentals | $1,672,656 | - |
| Service Orders | $321,796 | - |
| Total | $7,173,989 | $4,795,974 |
The Group has focused on growing its rental program as well as its service business in order to complement and offer more solutions to its customers.
The Group’s operating expenses decreased to $4,784,902 in 2014 as compared to $4,662,428 in 2013, a increase of 3%. The increase is mostly due an increase in our employee, rental and travel expenses offset by a credit in our allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company also improved its gross margin from the release of new products during the year.
The Group also reversed a portion of the provision against certain receivables that are past due of $607,639 recorded in the previous year. Some of the units were collected against, some were returned and some were purchased by the Company in order to meet service commitments for other customers.
Financial Position of the Group
The Group ended 2014 with net assets of $5,666,639, compared to $3,314,940 in 2013. The increase in the value of net assets in financial condition is mostly due to the increase in sales volumes during the year, as well as the reversal of the provision for doubtful debts referenced above. The Group also completed an Entitlements Offer for $1,300,000 during the year, converted its existing debt facility into ordinary shares and entered into a new debt facility to fund ongoing requirements to grow its rental business.
On the asset side, the Group has increased its current asset position by $2,442,712 from 2014 to 2013, from a combination of increased sales, the reversal of last years high provision for doubtful debts and an increase in the balance of inventories as the Group looks to grow its rental portfolio. Non-current assets increased by $560,236 mostly due to the pool of rental beacons under contract and the capitalised research and development costs of our next generation sMRT V100 and sMRT AU10 products.
On the liability front, the Group increased its current liability position by $649,800 due an increase in short term borrowings and increased payables from its build up of inventory for the rental portfolio. The group is only carrying $36,612 in non-current liabilities.

Business strategy for future financial years
The Group completed its transition to its new business model during 2014. The Company expanded its capabilities to accommodate its rental and services business. The rebalancing of the business model will allow the Company to grow sales quicker, stabilise cash flow further and provide alternative means for customers to meet their safety requirements. We continued work on new products in FY2014 and are looking at furthering the capabilities of our existing products. We continue to work with international bodies to promote the highest standards for safety in regulations.
We refocused internal sales resources on the Asia Pacific region during 2014 and are continuing to strengthen our sales and marketing team to grow our higher margin direct sales and rental solutions. We look to expand our direct presence into key markets such as North America. Further information on likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this report because disclosure of the information would likely result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.
Net Tangible Asset/(Liability)
The Group had a net tangible asset of $2,412,691 (2013: 226,508). The net tangible asset per weighted average share is $0.007 (2013: $0.001).
Changes in the State Of Affairs
Other than the items listed above, there were no other changes to the state of affairs of the Group.
Likely Developments and Expected Results
The directors have excluded from this report information on likely developments in the operations of the entity and the expected results of those operations in future financial years, since, in the opinion of the directors, it would prejudice the interests of the Group if this information were included.
Environmental Regulation and Performance
The Group’s operations are not regulated by any significant environmental regulations under a law of the Commonwealth or of a State or Territory in Australia.
Use of Funds
The Group confirms that for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 the Group used its cash that it had at the time of admission in a way that was consistent with the Company’s business objectives.
Directors' Benefits
Disclosure of benefits provided to directors during the financial year is made in notes 21 and 23 of the financial statements.

2 Remuneration at a glance
Remuneration strategy review in FY 2014
The Group completed a realignment of remuneration against shareholder return during the 2012 and 2013 years. The long term incentives from the plans issued in those years are still in place through the 2016 financial year. The Group has discussed those incentives during the year, but has not made any modifications until the goals set have been achieved. The short-term incentives for certain executives were adjusted during 2014 in order to align with the new business model around rentals and service.
3 Board oversight of remuneration
Remuneration committee
During Financial Year 2014, the Board in its entirety acted as the remuneration committee. The remuneration committee is responsible for making recommendations to the board on the remuneration arrangements for non-executive directors and executives.
The remuneration committee has the responsibility to assess the amount and composition of remuneration of non-executive directors and executives. The board is seeking to attract and retain top director and executive talent to deliver maximum shareholder value.
Further information on the committee’s role, responsibilities and membership can be seen at http://www.mobilarm.com .
Remuneration approval process
The board approves the remuneration arrangements of the CEO and executives and all awards made under the long-term incentive (LTI) plans. The board also sets the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors which is then subject to shareholder approval.
Remuneration strategy
Mobilarm Limited’s remuneration strategy is designed to attract, motivate and retain employees and nonexecutive directors by identifying and rewarding high performers and recognising the contribution of each employee to the continued growth and success of the Group and shareholder return.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
15
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
To this end, key objectives of the Group’s reward framework are to ensure that remuneration practices:
-
§ are aligned to the Group’s business strategy, both short and long term;
-
§ offer competitive remuneration benchmarked against the external market; and
-
§ are aligned with shareholder return.
Remuneration structure
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive directors and executive remuneration is separate and distinct.
4 Non-executive director remuneration arrangements
Remuneration policy
The board manages remuneration in order to balance the ability to have the best talent at its board and executive levels, the ability to provide the necessary levels of corporate governance for the Group and be able to do it at a cost that is within the means of the Group and the acceptance of shareholders.
The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the fee structure will be reviewed annually against fees paid by comparable companies.
The Company’s constitution and the ASX listing rules specify that the non-executive directors’ fee pool shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting.
The Company has an aggregate fee pool of $200,000 per year for Non Executive Directors to accommodate any corporate governance requirements as part of the Group’s listing on the ASX.
Structure
The remuneration of Non Executive Directors consists of directors’ fees only. Non-executive directors do not receive retirement benefits, nor do they participate in any incentive programs.
The compensation of non-executive directors is based on a base fee of $30,000 per annum for being a director of the Group and a base fee of $120,000 or £72,000 per annum for being the Chairman of the Group.
The remuneration of non-executive directors for the year ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2013 is detailed in table 1 and 2 respectively of this report.
5 Executive remuneration arrangements
Remuneration levels and mix
The Group’s goal is to incentivise executives with a remuneration package that addresses their position and responsibilities within the Group and is also aligned with market practice. The Group is looking to ensure that total employment cost (TEC) is within the range of offerings for the position in the market.
The CEO’s remuneration mix comprises 76% fixed remuneration as a proportion of total remuneration, 0% short term incentives (“STI”) on target and 24% LTI. Executives’ remuneration mix ranges from 40%-92% fixed remuneration as a proportion of total remuneration, 0%-60% STI on target, and 0%-10% LTI.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014

Structure
In the 2014 financial year, the executive remuneration framework consisted of the following components:
-
§ Fixed remuneration; and
-
§ Variable remuneration.
The table below illustrates the structure of Mobilarm Limited’s executive remuneration arrangements:
| Remuneration Component |
Vehicle | Purpose | Link to Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed remuneration |
Represented by total employment cost (TEC) Comprises base salary, superannuation contributions and other benefits |
Set with reference to role, market and experience Executives are given the opportunity to receive their fixed remuneration in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefits such as motor vehicles. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Group. |
No link to company performance. |
| STI component | Cash bonus on short term sales targets |
Set to drive aggressive growth and reduce reliance on fixed compensation. Align to business model promoting rentals and long term service. |
Sales targets based on volume and type of sale. |
| LTI component | Awards are made in the form of performance shares or stock options |
Rewards executives for their contribution to the creation of shareholder value over the longer term. |
Vesting of awards is dependent on Mobilarm Limited’s targeted performance goal. |
Fixed remuneration
Executive contracts of employment do not include any guaranteed base pay increases.
The fixed component of executives’ remuneration is detailed in table 1.
Variable remuneration — short-term incentive (STI)
The Group does not currently operate an STI program other than its sales commission plan that only affects its sales personnel. The board has discussed the potential for such a program to drive Group performance in key performance factors, but no program has been put in place. During the year, no discretionary bonuses were paid.
Variable remuneration — long-term incentives (LTI)
LTI awards are made annually to executives in order to align remuneration with the creation of shareholder value over the long-term. As such, LTI awards are only made to executives and other key talent who have an impact on the Group's performance against the relevant long-term performance measure.

LTI – Share Options
Structure
LTI awards are made under the performance share plan (PSP) and/or the employee stock option plan (ESOP).
LTI awards to executives are made under the performance share plan and the performance share rights and are delivered in the form of performance shares and performance share rights. Each performance share entitles the holder to one fully paid ordinary share in the Group. The number of performance shares issued is based on the executive’s target LTI. The performance shares will vest prior to the three-year expiry date subject to meeting performance measures (see below), with no opportunity to reset. The performance criteria was selected as a direct measure of results of operations during its first three years of operation since listing on the stock exchange. Each performance share right entitles the holder to one fully paid ordinary share in the Group. The number of performance shares rights issued is based on the executive’s target LTI. The performance shares rights will vest prior to the three-year expiry date subject to meeting performance measures (see below), with no opportunity to reset. The performance criteria is directly linked to the market value of the Company’s shares in order to focus on shareholder return.
LTI awards made under the Group’s ESOP are delivered in the form of share options. Each share option entitles the holder to one fully paid ordinary share in the Group. The number of share options issued is based on the KMP’s or executive’s target LTI. The share options issued to date have multiple time based vesting dates and expire five years from the date of issue. The Group will consider specific performance criteria for other awards under the ESOP. No share options have been exercised as of the date of this report.
Performance measure to determine vesting
The Group uses specific milestone or market capitalisation as the performance measure for the performance share plan. This criteria was selected to align compensation with growth to move the Group from an early stage development business to a large commercial entity in a short time period.
The milestone for each class of performance shares is as follows:
| Performance Share Class |
Performance Share Milestone | Performance Shares Awarded Since Inception |
|---|---|---|
| A | ASX conditional listing | 6,666,666 |
| B | $65 million market capitalisation | 3,166,666 |
| C | $100 million market capitalisation | 3,166,668 |
The milestone for each class of performance share rights s is as follows:
| Type | Performance Share Milestone | Performance Share Rights Awarded Since Inception |
|---|---|---|
| Performance Share Rights |
MBO VWAP exceeding 10 cents | 11,000,000 |
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
18
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
Share options issued under the ESOP have vesting dates as follows:
| Date of Issue | Number of Options | Vesting Date | Expiry Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| 22-Dec-2010 | 925,000 | 22-Dec-2010 | 22-Dec-2015 |
| 20-Jan-2011 | 83,333 | 20-Jan-2011 | 15-Oct-2015 |
| 09-Jun-2011 | 500,000 | 09-Jun-2011 | 09-Jun-2016 |
The option grants for K. Gaunt and T. McClement have vesting criteria as follows:
| Date of Issue | Number of Options | Vesting Criteria | Expiry Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| 31-Aug-2012 | 29,670,487 | 5 day VWAP exceeding $0.10 | 31-Aug-2015 |
| 01-Oct-2012 | 2,000,000 | 5 day VWAP exceeding $0.10 | 01-Oct-2015 |
Table 3 in section 8 provides details of performance shares awarded during the year and Table 4 in section 8 provides details of the value of the performance shares awarded, vested and lapsed during the year.
Termination and change of control provisions
Where a participant ceases employment prior to the vesting of their award, the performance share and/or options are forfeited unless the board applies its discretion to allow vesting at or post cessation of employment in appropriate circumstances.
In the event of a change of control of the Group, the performance period end date will generally be brought forward to the date of the change of control and awards will vest subject to performance over this shortened period, subject to ultimate board discretion.
LTI awards for 2014 financial year
The Group did not issue share options or other LTI compensation during 2014 to employees or directors of the Company.
LTI awards for 2013 financial year
The Group did not issue share options through its ESOP during 2013 to employees of the Company. The Company issued 29,670,487 and 2,000,000 stock options to Ken Gaunt and Sir Tim McClement, respectively during 2013. The group also issued 11,000,000 performance share rights to various executives and employees.
6 Group performance and the link to remuneration
Group performance and its link to long-term incentives
The financial performance measure driving LTI is the Group’s price per share and market capitalisation. The Group went through a restructuring activity in 2013 and 2012, and had refocused its LTI on the price per share to focus on growing the value to our existing shareholders. This is still the focus in 2014. Whilst the Group was in the initial growth stages of revenue, with revenues of $5,816,192 and $4,279,624 in 2014 and 2013, respectively, the focus on profitable growth is the key measure. The measure of market capitalisation was used in the past as it correlated with overall business performance. There is only one tranche of

Performance Shares Class C outstanding that have market capitalisation as a measure. This measure is not used on new awards.

Board Functions
The board of directors is established to direct the Group to meet the expectations of the shareholders, as well as other stakeholders. As part of meeting those expectations, the board has a responsibility to identify the areas of corporate governance to effectively manage the Group. To ensure that the board is well equipped to discharge its responsibilities it has established guidelines for the nomination and selection of directors and for the operation of the board.
The responsibility for the operation and administration of the Group is delegated, by the board, to the CEO and the executive management team. The board ensures that this team is appropriately qualified and experienced to discharge their responsibilities and has in place procedures to assess the performance of the CEO and the executive management team.
Whilst at all times the board retains full responsibility for guiding and monitoring the Group, in discharging its stewardship it makes use of sub-committees. Specialist committees are able to focus on a particular responsibility and provide informed feedback to the board.
To this end the board has established the following committees:
-
§ Audit and Risk
-
§ Nomination
-
§ Remuneration
The Group has commenced the process to establish the roles and responsibilities of these committees.
The board is responsible for ensuring that management's objectives and activities are aligned with the expectations and risks identified by the board. The board has a number of mechanisms in place to ensure this is achieved including:
-
§ Board approval and monitoring of a strategic plan designed to meet stakeholders' needs and manage business risk.
-
§ Implementation of budgets by management and monitoring progress against budget - via the establishment and reporting of both financial and non-financial key performance indicators.
Other functions reserved to the board include:
-
§ Approval of the annual and half-yearly financial reports.
-
§ Approving and monitoring the progress of major capital expenditure, capital management, and acquisitions and divestitures.
-
§ Ensuring that any significant risks that arise are identified, assessed, appropriately managed and monitored.
-
§ Reporting to shareholders.

Structure of the Board
The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of director held by each director in office at the date of the annual report are included in the directors’ report. Directors of Mobilarm Limited are considered to be independent when they are independent of management and free from any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with – or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with – the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgement.
In the context of director independence, “materiality” is considered from both the Group and individual director perspective. The determination of materiality requires consideration of both quantitative and qualitative elements. An item is presumed to be quantitatively immaterial if it is equal to or less than 5% of the appropriate base amount. It is presumed to be material (unless there is qualitative evidence to the contrary) if it is equal to or greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount.
Qualitative factors considered include whether a relationship is strategically important, the competitive landscape, the nature of the relationship and the contractual or other arrangements governing it and other factors that point to the actual ability of the director in question to shape the direction of the Group's loyalty.
In accordance with the definition of independence above, and the materiality thresholds set, the following directors of Mobilarm Limited are considered to be independent:
Name Position Sir Tim McClement Independent director
The board recognises the Corporate Governance Council’s recommendation that the Chair should be an independent director.
The term in office held by each director in office at the date of this report is as follows:
Name Term in office Mr. Ken Gaunt 3 years Sir Tim McClement 2 years Mr. Jorge Nigaglioni 2 years
For additional details regarding board appointments, please refer to our website.

==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
Performance
The performance of the board and key executives is reviewed against both measurable and qualitative indicators.
The performance criteria against which directors and executives are assessed are aligned with the financial and non-financial objectives of Mobilarm Limited.
Directors whose performance is consistently unsatisfactory may be asked to retire.
Trading policy
Under the Group's securities trading policy, an executive or director must not trade in any securities of the Group at any time when they are in possession of unpublished, price-sensitive information in relation to those securities.
Before commencing to trade, an executive must first obtain the approval of the Group Secretary or a Director to do so and a director must first obtain approval of the Chairman.
As required by the ASX listing rules, the Group notifies the ASX of any transaction conducted by directors in the securities of the Group.
Diversity Policy
The Group recognises the value contributed to the organisation by employing people with varying skills, cultural backgrounds, ethnicity and experience. Mobilarm has since its inception believed its diverse workforce is the key to its continued growth, improved productivity and performance.
We have and actively value and embrace the diversity of our employees and are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone is treated equally and fairly, and where discrimination, harassment and inequity are not tolerated. While Mobilarm is committed to fostering diversity at all levels, gender diversity has been and continues to be a priority for the Group.
To this end, the Group supports and complies with the recommendations contained in the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. The Group has established a diversity policy outlining the board’s measurable objectives for achieving diversity. This is assessed annually to measure the progress towards achieving those objectives. The diversity policy is available in the corporate governance section on the Group’s website.
The table below outlines the diversity objectives established by the board, the steps taken during the year to achieve these objectives, and the outcomes. In the previous year, we significantly reduced our headcount. This shifted our focus during the year to ensuring the required skill sets were present and allowing opportunities for personnel to change roles to meet the needs. As we grow the business we will shift our focus again towards monitored diversity improvements.
| Objectives | Steps/Outcomes |
|---|---|
| Recruit and manage on the basis of an individual’s competence, qualification and performance. |
The Group manages individuals based on performance with annual review. |
| Create a workplace culture characterised by inclusive practices and behaviours for the benefit of all staff. |
Whilst Mobilarm places focus on diversity, career development opportunities are equal for all employees. |
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
38
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
| Create a work environment that values and utilises the contributions of employees with diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives through improved awareness of the benefits of workplace diversity and successful management of diversity, and at all times recognising that employees may have restrictions placed on them by domestic responsibilities outside the workplace. |
The Group includes diversity in our culture and day to day operations. |
|---|---|
| Take action to prevent and stop discrimination. |
Mobilarm has set a zero tolerance policy against discrimination of employees at all levels. The company also provides avenues for employees to voice their concerns or report any discrimination. No cases of discrimination were reported during the year (2013: nil). |
| Create awareness in all staff of their rights and responsibilities with regards to fairness, equity and respect for all aspects of diversity. |
We communicated the policies to all personnel and updated our policies to include these changes. |
Nomination committee
The board has established a nomination committee and a chair person to establish its role and responsibility. The committee has not met as of the date of this report. The board of directors as a whole acted as the Nomination committee during the period. The nomination committee is comprised by non-executive director and the chairman of the board when the board composition allows. The nomination committee is managed by the board as a whole, but chaired independently by the following members throughout the year:
- § Sir Tim McClement (Committee Chairman)

Audit and Risk committee
The board has established an Audit and Risk committee, which operates under a charter approved by the board. The committee has not met as of the date of this report. The board of directors as a whole acted as the Audit and Risk committee during the period. It is the board's responsibility to ensure that an effective internal control framework exists within the entity. This includes internal controls to deal with both the effectiveness and efficiency of significant business processes, the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records, and the reliability of financial information as well as non-financial.
The committee also provides the board with additional assurance regarding the reliability of financial information for inclusion in the financial reports. The committee is comprised of a non-executive director and the chairman of the board when the board composition allows.
The audit committee is managed by the board as a whole, but chaired independently by the following members throughout the year:
§ Sir Tim McClement (Committee Chairman)
Qualifications of audit committee members
Sir Tim McClement has an extensive and highly successful Naval career. From 2004 to 2006 Sir Tim was the Deputy Commander–in-Chief Fleet (as a Vice Admiral). In this role he was the Chief Operating Officer of the Royal Navy’s front line operational command running the day-to-day Command of the 2nd most powerful Navy in the world. From 2001 to 2003 Sir Tim was the Assistant Chief of Naval Staff (as a Rear Admiral). He was a member of the Admiralty Board, which was chaired by the Secretary of State for Defence. Sir Tim is also an experienced chairman and non-executive director, having served as Director of Subsea Resources Ltd, Managing Director of Flagship Superyacht Academy, an adviser to Undersea Defence Technology, a strategic adviser to Large Yacht Solutions, a member of the Defence Advisory Board of Babcock International, a military adviser to CTruk, a Director of CWInd and Chairman of Protection Vessels International which as a start up in 2009 achieved revenues of £48 Million by the end of 2011.
Risk
The Group sells products and services aimed at mitigating risk in the workplace. As such, the board takes a proactive approach to risk management. The identification and effective management of risk, including calculated risk-taking is viewed as an essential part of the Group’s approach to creating long-term shareholder value.
In recognition of this, the board determines the company's risk profile and is responsible for overseeing and approving risk management strategy and policies, internal compliance and internal control. In doing so the board has taken the view that it is crucial for all board members to be a part of this process and as such, has not established a separate risk management committee.
The board oversees an annual assessment of risks affecting the Group and the effectiveness of management’s plans to mitigate the risks. The tasks of undertaking and assessing risk management and internal control effectiveness are delegated to management through the CEO, including responsibility for the day to day design and implementation of the company's risk management and internal control system.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014

==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
The board has a number of mechanisms in place to ensure that management's objectives and activities are aligned with the risks identified by the board. These include the following:
-
§ Board approval of a strategic plan, which encompasses the company's vision, mission and strategy statements, designed to meet stakeholders' needs and manage business risk. The strategic plan includes the identified risks and strategies to mitigate them.
-
§ Implementation of board approved operating plans and budgets and board monitoring of progress against these budgets, including the establishment and monitoring of KPIs of both a financial and nonfinancial nature.
For the purposes of assisting investors to understand better the nature of the risks faced by Mobilarm Limited, the board has prepared a list of operational risks as part of the Principle 7 disclosures.

§ The occurrence of force majeure events by significant suppliers.

-
§ Increased regulatory barriers around the implementation of devices using regulated radio frequencies in various countries.
-
§ Increased competition from established and new companies .

Underpinning these efforts is a comprehensive set of policies and procedures directed towards achieving the following objectives in relation to the requirements of Principle 7:
-
§ Effectiveness and efficiency in the use of the Group's resources;
-
§ Compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and
-
§ Preparation of reliable published financial information.

CEO and CFO certification
In accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act, the CEO and CFO have provided a written statement to the board that:
-
§ Their view provided on the Group's financial report is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the financial policies adopted by the board.
-
§ The Group's risk management and internal compliance and control system is operating effectively in all material respects.
The board agrees with the views of the ASX on this matter and notes that due to its nature, internal control assurance from the CEO and CFO can only be reasonable rather than absolute. This is due to such factors as the need for judgement, the use of testing on a sample basis, the inherent limitations in internal control and because much of the evidence available is persuasive rather than conclusive and therefore is not and cannot be designed to detect all weaknesses in control procedures.
In response to this, internal control questions are required to be completed by the key management personnel of all significant business units, including finance managers, in support of these written statements.
Remuneration
The expected outcomes of the remuneration goals of the Group are:
-
§ Attract, retain and incentivise key executives.
-
§ Performance incentives that allow executives to be rewarded for delivering results to the Group and its shareholders.
To assist in achieving these goals, the Group formed a remuneration committee to devise and monitor the amount of executive directors' and officers' remuneration to ensure it is closely tied to the Group's financial and operational performance. The committee has not met as of the date of this report. The board of directors as a whole acted as the Remuneration committee during the period.
For a full discussion of the Group's remuneration philosophy and framework and the remuneration received by directors and executives in the current period please refer to the remuneration report, which is contained within the directors’ report.
There is no scheme to provide retirement benefits to non-executive directors.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 June 2014

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for contingent consideration which has been measured at fair value.
The financial report is presented in Australian Dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest dollar.
Going Concern
This report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has incurred a net operating loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2014 of $63,392 (2013: $1,297,765) and experienced net cash outflows from operating activities of $1,052,788 (2013: $1,433,436). As 30 June 2014, the Company had net assets of $5,666,639 (2013: $3,314,940).
Notwithstanding the above, the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is reliant on:
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
49
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
-
increased profitability and cash flows from operations, and/ or
-
the raising of funds through a debt or equity issue.
The Directors have reviewed the business outlook and plans of the company and believe that the Company will achieve increased cash flows from operations to sustain its ability to continue as a going concern, which will also make the raising of funds more achievable if needed. The Company started a rental program during the year that will initially require capital investment, but will produce long-term cash inflows. The Company reduced its losses by 95% for the year and increased its revenues. The continued growth of the rental portfolio will enhance the Company’s financial position.
As announced on the Australian Stock Exchange on 3 September 2014 and 11 September 2014 and in line with the strategy above the Group has secured a rental contract in excess of $1,800,000 and two outright purchases in excess of $500,000 and $200,000 each.
Should the entity not achieve the matters set out above, there is significant uncertainty whether the entity will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at amounts stated in the financial report.
The financial report does not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
(a) Compliance Statement
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year. The Group has adopted all new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations effective from 1 July 2013. The adoption of these Standards and Interpretations did not have a significant impact on the accounting policies of the Group.

| AASB 10 | Consolidated Financial Statements |
AASB 10 establishes a new control model that applies to all entities. It replaces parts of AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements dealing with the accounting for consolidated financial statements and UIG-112 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. The new control model broadens the situations when an entity is considered to be controlled by another entity and includes new guidance for applying the model to specific situations, including when acting as a manager may give control, the impact of potential voting rights and when holding less than a majority voting rights may give control. Consequential amendments were also made via AASB 2011-7. |
1 January 2013 | 1 July 2013 |
| AASB 11 | Joint Arrangements | AASB 11 replaces AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures and UIG-113 Jointly- controlled Entities – Non-monetary Contributions by Ventures. AASB 11 uses the principle of control in AASB 10 to define joint control, and therefore the determination of whether joint control exists may change. In addition it removes the option to account for jointly controlled entities (JCEs) using proportionate consolidation. Instead, accounting for a joint arrangement is dependent on the nature of the rights and obligations arising from the arrangement. Joint operations that give the venturers a right to the underlying assets and obligations themselves is accounted for by recognising the share of those assets and obligations. Joint ventures that give the venturers a right to the net assets is accounted for using the equity method. Consequential amendments were also made to other standards via AASB 2011-7 and amendments to AASB 128. |

| AASB 12 | Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities |
AASB 12 includes all disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and structures entities. New disclosures have been introduced about the judgments made by management to determine whether control exists, and to require summarised information about joint arrangements, associates and structured entities and subsidiaries with non-controlling interests. |

| AASB 13 | Fair Value Measurement |
AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance for determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. AASB 13 does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather, provides guidance on how to determine fair value when fair value is required or permitted. Application of this definition may result in different fair values being determined for the relevant assets. AASB 13 also expands the disclosure requirements for all assets or liabilities carried at fair value. This includes information about the assumptions made and the qualitative impact of those assumptions on the fair value determined. Consequential amendments were also made to other standards via AASB 2011-8. |

| AASB 119 | Employee Benefits | The main change introduced by this standard is to revise the accounting for defined benefit plans. The amendment removes the options for accounting for the liability, and requires that the liabilities arising from such plans is recognized in full with actuarial gains and losses being recognized in other comprehensive income. It also revised the method of calculating the return on plan assets. The revised standard changes the definition of short-term employee benefits. The distinction between short-term and other long-term employee benefits is now based on whether the benefits are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the reporting date. Consequential amendments were also made to other standards via AASB 2011-10. |

| AASB 9 | Financial Instruments |
AASB 9 includes requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. It was further amended by AASB 2010-7 to reflect amendments to the accounting for financial liabilities. These requirements improve and simplify the approach for classification and measurement of financial assets compared with the requirements of AASB 139. The main changes are below. (a) Financial assets that are debt instruments will be classified based on (1) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; (2) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows. (b) Allows an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument. (c) Financial assets can be designated and measured at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise from measuring assets or liabilities, or recognising the gains and losses on them, on different bases. (d) Where the fair value option is used for financial liabilities the change in fair value is to be accounted for as follows: ►The change attributable to changes in credit risk are presented in other comprehensive income (OCI) ►The remaining change is presented in profit or loss If this approach creates or enlarges an accounting mismatch in the profit or loss, the effect of the credit risk are presented in profit or loss. Consequential amendments were also made to other standards as a result of AASB 9, introduced by AASB 2009-11 and superseded by AASB 2010-7 and 2010-10. |

(c) Basis of consolidation
A controlled entity is any entity that Mobilarm Limited has the power to control the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
A list of controlled entities is located below. All controlled entities have a June financial year end.
All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those policies applied by the Group.
Where controlled entities have entered the consolidate group during the year, their operating results have been included from the date control was obtained.

(d) Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
Management has identified the following critical accounting policies for which significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are made. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and may materially affect the financial results or the financial position reported in future periods.
(i) Amortisation of intangibles with finite useful lives
In relation to the amortisation of intangibles with finite useful lives, management’s judgements are used to determine the estimate useful life. Management’s judgements are based on historical information relating to specific assets. Details of the useful lives are detailed below.
(ii) Capitalised development costs
Development costs are only capitalised by the Group when it can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale, how the asset will generate future economic benefits and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributed to the intangible asset during its development.
(iii) Taxation
The Group’s accounting policy for taxation requires management’s judgements as to the types of arrangements considered to be a tax on income in contrast to an operating cost. Judgements are also required in assessing whether deferred tax assets and certain deferred tax liabilities are recognised on the Statement of Financial Position. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from un-recouped tax losses, capital losses and temporary differences, are recognised only where it is considered more likely than not that they will be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of sufficient future taxable profits.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
59
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
Judgements about the generation of future taxable profits and repatriation on retained earnings depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. These depend on estimates of future cash sales, cost of sales, operating costs, capital expenditure, dividends and other capital management transactions. Judgements are also required about the application of income tax legislation. These judgements and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty, hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter expectations, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognised on the Statement of Financial Position and the amount of other tax losses and temporary differences not yet recognised. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying amount of recognised deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in a corresponding credit or charge to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
(iv) Goodwill Impairment
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost of the business combination being the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the company’s net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to the Group as a whole. This represent the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes, and is not larger than an operating segment determined in accordance with AASB 8.
Impairment testing is performed at 30 June each year. If the recoverable amount of the Group is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised.
(v) Debtors Provisioning
An allowance for doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified.
(vi) Share Based Payments
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using the Black Sholes model and reviewed by an external valuer.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period), ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting date).
At each subsequent reporting date until vesting, the cumulative charge to the Statement of Comprehensive Income is the product of:
-
i. The grant date fair value of the award.
-
ii. The current best estimate of the number of awards that will vest, taking into account such factors as the likelihood of employee turnover during the vesting period and the likelihood of non-market performance conditions being met.
-
iii. The expired portion of the vesting period.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
60
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
The charge to the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the period is the cumulative amount as calculated above less the amounts already charged in previous periods. There is a corresponding entry to equity.
Until an award has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent and will be adjusted if more or fewer awards vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any award subject to a market condition is considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are satisfied.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.
(e) Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination shall be measured at fair value, which shall be calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of the assets transferred by the acquirer, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the equity issued by the acquirer, and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the acquirer measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the Group’s operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
(f) Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. This includes start up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the board of directors.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
61
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 are reported separately. However, an operating segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about the segment would be useful to users of the financial statements.
Information about other business activities and operating segments that are below the quantitative criteria are combined and disclosed in a separate category for “all other segments”.
The Group does not currently have multiple segments, but will identify segments that meet the quantitative criteria if and when present. The Chief Executive Officer is the Group's chief operating decision maker.
(g) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised and measured at the fair value of the consideration received and receivable to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
(i) Sale of goods
Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Risks and rewards of ownership are considered passed to the buyer at the time of delivery of the goods to the customer.
(ii) Interest income
Revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
(iii) Rental income
Rental income from the Group’s rental service of its equipment and maintenance is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(h) Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.
Finance leases, which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
62
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as an integral part of the total lease expense.
(i) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and short-term deposits in the Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
(j) Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are recognised and carried at the original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts.
An allowance for doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified.
(k) Inventories
Inventories including raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition is accounted for as follows:
-
a) Raw materials – purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis; and
-
b) Finished goods and work-in-progress – cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
(l) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
(i) Financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:
-
§ The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;
-
§ The Group retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; or
-
§ The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
63
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
(ii) Financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
(m) Foreign currency
Items included in the financial statements of each entity within the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (“functional currency”). The functional and presentation currency of Mobilarm Limited is Australian dollars (“A$”). The functional currency of our overseas subsidiaries are as follows:
Marine Rescue Technologies Ltd British Pound (GBP₤ Rentquip Ltd British Pound (GBP₤ Mobilarm, Inc. United States Dollar (US$) Mobilarm, Nigeria United States Dollar (US$)
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date.
All exchange differences in the financial report are taken to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.
The results of the foreign subsidiaries are translated into Australian Dollars (presentation currency) as at the date of each transaction. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at reporting date.
(n) Income tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
64
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
(o) Other taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST or VAT except;
-
§ When the GST or VAT incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST or VAT is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
-
§ Receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST or VAT included.
The net amount of GST or VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST or VAT component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority, are classified as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(p) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows;
- § Plant and equipment – 2.5 to 20 years
The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
65
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
(i) Impairment
The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.
The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pretax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the asset's value in use can be estimated to be close to its fair value.
An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating units exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount.
For plant and equipment, impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
(ii) Derecognition and disposal
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. in the year the asset is derecognised.
(q) Investments and other financial assets
Financial assets are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale investments, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transactions costs. The Group determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year-end.
(i) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
(ii) Available-for-sale investments
Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-forsale or are not classified as any of the three preceding categories. After initial recognition available-for sale investments are measured at fair value with gains or losses being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
66
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The fair value of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the Statement of Financial Position date. For investments with no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include using recent arm’s length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument that is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models.
(r) Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired are initially measured at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is charged against profits in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life is reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, which is a change in accounting estimate. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset.
- (i) Research costs are expensed as incurred. An intangible asset arising from development expenditure on an internal project is recognised only when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the development and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Any expenditure so capitalised is amortised over the period of expected benefits from the related project.
The carrying value of an intangible asset arising from development expenditure is tested for impairment annually when the asset is not yet available for use or more frequently when an indication of impairment arises during the reporting period.
A summary of the policies applied to the Group’s intangible assets is as follows:
Patents and Licences Useful lives: 5 years Amortisation method used: Straight Line Internally generated or acquired: Acquired
Impairment testing: Annually and more frequently when an indication of impairment exists.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
67
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
Development Costs Useful lives: Finite
Amortisation method used: Amortised over the period of expected future sales from the related project on a straight-line basis.
Internally generated or acquired: Internally generated
Impairment testing: Annually for assets not yet available for use and more frequently when an indication of impairment exists. The amortisation method is reviewed at each financial year-end.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the asset is derecognised.
(s) Goodwill
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost of the business combination being the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the company’s net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to the Group as a whole. This represent the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes, and is not larger than an operating segment determined in accordance with AASB8.
Impairment testing is performed at 30 June each year. If the recoverable amount of the Group is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised.
(t) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pretax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.
An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
68
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
(u) Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and due to their short-term nature they are not discounted. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
(v) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the liabilities are derecognised.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
(i) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset (i.e. an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale) are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Mobilarm Limited does not currently hold qualifying assets but, if it did, the borrowing costs directly associated with this asset would be capitalised (including any other associated costs directly attributable to the borrowing and temporary investment income earned on the borrowing).
(w) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
69
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a borrowing cost.
(i) Warranty provisions
Provisions for warranty-related costs are recognised when the product is sold or service provided. Initial recognition is based on historical experience. The initial estimate of warranty-related costs is revised annually.
(x) Employee leave benefits
(i) Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave
Provision is made for the Group’s obligation for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled. Liabilities for non accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable. The Group’s obligations for shortterm employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as a part of current trade and other payables in the statement of financial position. The Group’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.
(ii) Long service leave
Provision is made for employees’ long service leave and annual leave entitlements not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. Other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. Expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, durations of service and employee departures and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have maturity dates that approximate the terms of the obligations. Any remeasurements for changes in assumptions of obligations for other long-term employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in which the changes occur.
The Group’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as non-current provisions in its statement of financial position, except where the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period, in which case the obligations are presented as current provisions.
(y) Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Diluted earnings/(loss) per share are calculated by dividing the net operating profit/(loss) for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders (after deducting interest on convertible notes) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
(aa) Shared based payments
(i) Equity settled transactions
The Group at times provides benefits to its employees (including KMP) in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions).
There are currently two plans in place to provide these benefits:
-
§ The Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP), which provides benefits to all employees, including KMP.
-
§ The Performance Share Plan, which provide benefits to KMP.
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using the Black Sholes model and reviewed by an external valuer.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period), ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting date).
At each subsequent reporting date until vesting, the cumulative charge to the Statement of Comprehensive Income is the product of:
-
iv. The grant date fair value of the award.
-
v. The current best estimate of the number of awards that will vest, taking into account such factors as the likelihood of employee turnover during the vesting period and the likelihood of non-market performance conditions being met.
-
vi. The expired portion of the vesting period.
The charge to the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the period is the cumulative amount as calculated above less the amounts already charged in previous periods. There is a corresponding entry to equity.
Until an award has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent and will be adjusted if more or fewer awards vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any award subject to a market condition is considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are satisfied.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.
(bb) Convertible notes
The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the Statement of Financial Position, net of transaction costs.
On issuance of the convertible notes, the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond and this amount is carried as a long-term liability on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or redemption. The increase in the liability due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in shareholders' equity, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in subsequent years.
Interest on the liability component of the instruments is recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. .
Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible noncumulative redeemable preference shares based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are first recognised.

Allowance for impairment loss
Receivables past due but not considered impaired are: $34,186 (2013: $116,745). Payment terms on these amounts have not been re-negotiated however credit has been stopped until full payment is made. Each operating unit has been in direct contact with the relevant debtor and is satisfied that payment will be received in full.
Other balances within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. It is expected that these other balances will be received when due.
i. Fair value and credit risk
Due to the short term nature of these receivables, their carrying value is assumed to approximate their fair value.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is the fair value of receivables. Collateral is not held as security for trade debtors, nor is it the company’s policy to transfer (on-sell) receivables to special purpose entities.
- ii. Foreign exchange risk
Detail regarding foreign exchange and interest rate risk exposure is disclosed in note 25.

Development costs
Development costs have been capitalised at cost. The intangible asset has been assessed as having a finite life and is amortised using the straight-line method over a period of 5 years. If an impairment indication arises, the recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment loss is recognised to the extent that the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying value.
Intellectual property
Intellectual property costs have been capitalised at cost. The intangible asset was assessed as having a finite life and is fully amortised.
Patents and licenses costs
Patents and licenses costs have been capitalised at cost. These patent and licenses have been granted for a minimum of 5 years by the relevant government agency and have accordingly been amortised using the straight line method over this finite life. It was determined that the Patents and Licences which were being carried had no future economic benefit to the Group. Therefore, these amounts were fully amortised.
Goodwill
Goodwill has been capitalised at cost of the business combination being the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the company’s net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The goodwill recognised in the previous year arose on the acquisition of MRT. Refer to note 26 for further details. The acquisition of MRT occurred on 9 June 2011 and the allocation of goodwill is allocated to the Man Overboard cash generating units.
The Group performed its annual impairment test as at 30 June 2014. The Group considers the relationship between its market capitalisation and its book value, among other factors, when reviewing for indicators of impairment. As at 30 June 2014, the market capitalisation of the Group was above the book value of its equity.
The recoverable amount of the electronics CGU has been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by senior management covering a three-year period. The projected cash flows have been updated to reflect the increased demand for products and services. The pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow projections is 20% and cash flows beyond the fiveyear period are extrapolated using a 3.0% growth rate. As a result of this analysis, management has concluded the value of goodwill requires no impairment charge.
Impairment losses recognised
The Group had no impairments in the 2014 financial year (2013: $78,506). The impairment loss in 2013 related to small projects that added capabilities to our AU9 product families and has been recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the line item “Impairment of capitalised development costs”. The Group has written off the value of these projects in full during the year.
There were no reversals of impairment losses recognised in the 2014 and 2013 financial year.

Employee share option plan (ESOP)
Share options are granted to employees. The ESOP is designed to align participants' interests with those of shareholders by increasing the value of the Group's shares. Under the ESOP, the exercise price of the options is set at the market price of the shares on the date of grant. Options have been granted under the plan set out as indicated below:
| Grant Date Expiry Date Exercise Price 22-Dec-2010 22-Dec-2015 $0.193 20-Jan-2011 15-Oct-2015 $0.193 09-Jun-2011 09-Jun-2016 $0.072 Balance at end of the year |
Amount 925,000 83,333 500,000 |
|---|---|
1,508,333 |
(i) The original strike price for these options was $0.20. The terms of these employee options provide for the exercise price of the options to be adjusted in accordance with the formula set out in ASX Listing Rule 6.22.2 following an Entitlement Offer. The Group adjusted the strike price as part of the Entitlements Offer completed.
The Group uses a binomial model to calculate the value of options that it recognises in its financial statements. The Group used the following factors to value the options.
| Grant Date 22-Dec-2010 20-Jan-2011 09-Jun-2011 |
Amount Exercise Price Share Price of the Underlying Equity Risk Free Interest Rate Expected Volatility Expected Life Value per Option 925,000 $0.200 $0.076 5.47% 90% 2.5 years $0.0248 83,333 $0.200 $0.076 5.47% 90% 2.5 years $0.0248 500,000 $0.072 $0.072 5.75% 90% 5 years $0.0509 1,508,333 |

Performance share plan (PSP)
Performance shares are granted to senior executive to align the long term the participants to the long term interests of shareholders. The plan is milestone based with the milestones set out as indicated below:
| Performance Shares | Performance Share Milestone | Expiry |
|---|---|---|
| Class A | ASX conditional listing | Two years from grant |
| Class B | $65 million market capitalisation | Three years from ASX listing |
| Class C | $100 million market capitalisation | Five years from ASX listing |

When a participant ceases employment prior to the vesting of their share options or reaching the performance share milestone, the share options or performance shares are forfeited unless cessation of employment is due to termination initiated by the Group. In the event of a change of control the performance period end date will be brought forward to the date of the change of control and awards will vest subject to performance over this shortened period.
The contractual life of each option is five years. The expiry date of Performance Shares are listed in the table above.

*The Group converted the all 6,666,666 Performance Shares Class A to ordinary shares upon receipt of conditional listing on 25 August 2010.
The fair value of the Performance Shares Class A, B and C has been recognised at $0.16. The valuation was based on the price of the IPO of $0.20 and discounted 20% to account for the risk and the escrow period of two years. There are no dividends incorporated into the measurement of fair value and the Performance Shares have no other feature to affect the measurement of fair value.
Other share based payments
The Group settled the acquisition of MRT with ordinary shares. The fees were settled at the current market price. The Group recognised the amount as an adjustment to its issued capital.

25 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Group's principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, bank loans, finance leases and hire purchase contracts, cash, short-term deposits and derivatives.
The Group is exposed to financial risks which arise directly from its operations. The Group has policies and measures in place to manage financial risks encountered by the business.
Primary responsibility for the identification of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board determines policies for the management of financial risks. It is the responsibility of the Chief Financial Officer and senior management to implement the policies set by the Board and for the constant day to day management of the Group's financial risks. The Board reviews these policies on a regular basis to ensure that they continue to address the risks faced by the company.
The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's policy to minimise risk from fluctuations in interest rates is to utilise
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
105
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
fixed interest rates in its bank loans, finance leases and hire purchase contracts. Cash and short term deposits are exposed to floating interest rate risks. Analysis is performed on customers' credit rating prior to signing contracts and analysis is performed regularly of credit exposures and aged debt to manage credit and liquidity risk.
The policies in place for managing the financial risks encountered by the company are summarised below.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014

==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
a) Risk Exposures and Responses
Interest rate risk
The Group’s exposure to variable interest rates is as follows:
| 2014 $ |
2013 $ |
|
|---|---|---|
| Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents Short term securities |
890,436 698,989 1,589,425 |
589,072 - |
| 589,072 |
The Group's policy is to manage its exposure to movements in interest rates by fixing the interest rate on financial instruments, including bank loans, finance leases and hire purchase liabilities, where possible. In addition, the company utilises a number of financial institutions to obtain the best interest rate possible and to manage its risk. The Group does not enter into interest rate hedges.
The following sensitivity analysis is based on the variable interest rate risk exposures in existence at the reporting date:
At 30 June 2014, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post tax profit and other comprehensive income would have been affected as follows:
Judgements of reasonably possible movements relating to financial assets and liabilities of floating rates based on management’s expectations:
| Post-Tax Profit | Higher/(Lower) | Equity Higher/(Lower) | Equity Higher/(Lower) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Higher/ | Higher/ | Higher/ | Higher/ | |
| (Lower) | (Lower) | (Lower) | (Lower) | |

| -0.5% (50 basis points) | (7,947) | (2,945) | - | - |
The periodic effects are determined by relating the hypothetical changes in the floating interest rates to the balance of financial instruments at reporting date. It is assumed that the balance at the reporting date is representative for the year as a whole.
Foreign currency risk
As a result of operations internationally the Group's Statement of Financial Position can be affected by movements in the various exchange rates.
The Group also has transactional currency exposures. Such exposure arises from sales or purchases in currencies other than the functional currency. The Group's policy is to naturally manage foreign exchange exposure by contracting with customers to receive sales revenue in the currency that the expenses have been incurred.

Credit risk
The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. Publicly available credit information from recognised providers is utilised for this purpose where available.
In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is not significant.
The Group has been exposed to credit risk as the top four customers accounted for 42% (2013: 36%) The Group has commenced selling its products and aims to minimise concentrations of credit risk in relation to accounts receivable by undertaking transactions with a large number of customers within the resources, energy and infrastructure industries.
For transactions that are not denominated in the functional currency of the relevant operating unit, the Group does not offer credit terms without the specific approval of the Chief Financial Officer.
MOBILARM LIMITED – FINANCIAL REPORT 2014
108
==> picture [171 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Group, which comprises cash and cash equivalents, the Group's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. Since the Group only trades with recognised third parties, there is no requirement for collateral.
Liquidity risk
The Group objective is to manage the liquidity of the business by monitoring project cash flows and through the use of financing facilities. The Group currently utilises financing facilities in the form of bank loans and hire purchase liabilities. The liquidity of the Group is managed by the company's Finance and Accounting department.
The table below reflects all contractually fixed pay-offs, repayments and interest resulting from financial liabilities as of 30 June 2014.

- Contingent consideration has not been included in the table as it will be settled in shares.
Equity price risk
Equity price risk arises from the Group’s contingent consideration payable as the fair value reported on the statement of financial position is impacted by the Group’s share price on the Australian Stock Exchange.
This has been measured based on the maximum number of shares to be issued at the Group’s share price at the date of acquisition. Over the term of the contingent consideration, the amount will be fair valued at each balance date and the movement in fair value recorded through the statement of comprehensive income. For example, if the share price in the Group increases, the value of the contingent consideration will increase, resulting in an increase to the liability reported in the statement of financial position and expense in the statement of comprehensive income.
At 30 June 2014, there was no contingent consideration recorded.
The table below discloses the sensitivities in relation to the impact of a share price movement on the valuation of the embedded derivative. The 3 cent sensitivity is based on a reasonably possible change over

a financial year using an observed range of the actual historical share prices of the Group since its listing date.

Fair values
The Group’s contingent consideration is recorded at its fair value, using the Level 2 basis as described in the Fair Value Hierarchy below.
The Fair Value Hierarchy assigns rankings to the level of judgment which is applied in deriving inputs for valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the Fair Value Hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 is the preferred input for valuation and reflects unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities which the economic entity can access at the end of the reporting period. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis.
Level 2 is the valuation of assets and liabilities either directly or indirectly based upon market observables other than quoted prices. For example: financial assets with fair values based on broker quotes; investments in private equity funds with fair values obtained via fund managers; and assets that are valued using the economic entities' own models whereby the majority of assumptions are market observable.
Level 3 relates to inputs that are unobservable. Unobservable inputs means that fair values are determined in whole or in part using a valuation technique (model) based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MOBILARM LIMITED
Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Mobilarm Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2014, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the 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 financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 2(a), the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
