ASX RELEASE
JAXSTA APPENDIX 4D AND HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL RESULTS
Sydney, Australia, 26[th] February 2019: Jaxsta ( ASX: JXT or the Company ), a music technology company developing an online platform to hold official music data, today released its interim report and financial results for the half-year ended 31 December 2018.
Jaxsta Half Year Financial Report and Appendix 4D
The Interim Half Year Report has been prepared on the basis that, in accordance AASB 3 Business Combinations, the 100% acquisition by Mobilarm Limited ( Mobilarm Limited, now known as Jaxsta Limited ) of Jaxsta Holdings Pty Ltd ( Jaxsta Holdings ) constituted a ‘reverse acquisition’ ( Transaction ). For accounting purposes, under a ‘reverse acquisition’ Jaxsta Holdings is treated as the accounting acquirer, rather than Mobilarm Limited.
This differs from the approach adopted in the investigating accountant’s pro-forma report set out in Jaxsta’s prospectus dated 7 September 2018 ( Investigating Accountants Report ).
Pursuant to AASB 3, goodwill is not generated on consolidation under the Transaction. Therefore, the Interim Half Year Report reflects $4.025 million in pre-existing Jaxsta Holdings goodwill, as opposed to the $25.808 million reflected in the Investigating Accountants Report. This represents a non-cash item with no impact on cash flow for Jaxsta.
The difference between the net assets of Jaxsta Holdings and the shares issued in Jaxsta Limited (formerly Mobilarm Limited) to Jaxsta Holdings shareholders is treated as a non-reoccurring Listing Expense in the Profit & Loss Statement of Jaxsta totalling $14.227m.
Please refer to the Interim Half Year Report – Notes to the Financial Statements for further information.
