⁽¹⁾ Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure. See “Non-IFRS Financial Information” below for additional information about this measure and a reconciliation of this measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Management analyzes our business in five reportable segments: Critical Power Services, Electric Vehicles, Sustainable Energy Solutions, Solar Development, and Corporate Office.

During the year ended June 30, 2023, the Group (including discontinued operations) generated total revenue of $15.1 million, gross loss of $2.3 million, operating loss of $15.3 million and a net loss of $22.4 million. Of these amounts, continuing operations of the Group generated revenue of $15.1 million, gross loss of $2.3 million, operating loss of $11.1 million and a net loss of $18.1 million. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Group (including discontinued operations) generated total revenue of $37.6 million, gross profit of $1.6 million, operating loss of $15.1 million and a net loss of $22.1 million. Of these amounts, continuing operations of the Group generated revenue of $22.4 million, gross profit of $0.3 million, operating loss of $14.5 million and a net loss of $21.4 million, including $0.5 million prior year adjustments relating to timing on the recognition of general and administration expenses from 2023 to 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA (including discontinued operations) for the year ended June 30, 2023 was a loss of $9.9 million, compared to a loss of $9.0 million for the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA for continuing operations was a loss of $5.7 million, compared to a loss of $9.1 million for the previous year, restated for $0.5 million of general and administration expenses from 2023 to 2022.

The results for the year ended June 30, 2023 reflect a reduction in the number of Aevitas Solar projects completed in the year and the impact of severe one-off weather events on the Edenvale project, which incurred a $3.9 million loss.

Revenue in Critical Power Services (excluding discontinued operations) declined by $7.4 million to $13.6 million in the year, impacted by $6 million from a reduction in the number of solar projects undertaken by Aevitas Solar. Kenshaw, which expanded into an additional facility in Newcastle, New South Wales due to increasing demand, saw revenues flat compared to the previous year on a constant AUD to USD exchange rate, with an increase in higher margin sales in generator service and motor sales and overhaul, offset by a reduction in generator sales and installation due to competitive market conditions and constrained supply chain. Electric Vehicles contributed $1.5 million revenue in the year, predominantly from non-EV ruggedization conversions, whilst EV activity is focused entirely on product development. There was no revenue contribution from Solar Development or Sustainable Energy Solutions in the year ended June 30, 2023 (year ended June 30, 2022: nil).

Gross profit (including discontinued operations) decreased by $3.8 million to a loss of $2.3 million, although on a continuing basis excluding J.A. Martin ex-Solar operations, gross profit decreased by $2.5 million to a loss of $2.3 million. In percentage terms, gross margin from continuing operations fell from 1% to (14%), largely driven by one-off extreme weather events impact on Aevitas Solar projects in FY2023, having a more significant impact than COVID-19 lockdowns and impact on supply chain in the prior year. Gross loss in FY2023 includes $3.9 million specific costs of non-recurring extreme weather events on Edenvale project for Aevitas Solar. In the prior year, $1.9 million of non-recurring costs on the Blue Grass project were also incurred in Aevitas Solar, due to state border closures during the project execution phase. Excluding these non-recurring costs, gross margin for continuing operations increased from 9.2% in the prior year, to 10.5% in FY2023, reflecting increased focus on high margin service revenues in Kenshaw. Electric Vehicles contributed nil gross profit (prior year: nil) while Solar Development contributed nil (prior year: nil).

The gain on Solar Development projects from continuing operations was net nil for the year ended June 30, 2023 . Included within discontinued operations was a $4.2 million loss on disposal of J.A. Martin ex-solar operations in July 2022. Compared to the book value of assets less liabilities held for sale as at June 30, 2023, the loss results primarily from a reduction in the contingent consideration payable based on the earn out fee calculated as a multiple of the post disposal earnings of J.A. Martin ex-solar in FY2023. The gain on Solar Development projects from continuing operations was net nil for the year ended June 30, 2022, comprising a $0.1 million write off of costs incurred on uneconomic projects in Caret, offset by a $0.1 million gain on sale of tangible assets in Critical Power Systems.

The results for the year ended June 30, 2023 also reflect a restated $6.2 million decrease in general and administrative costs related to continuing operations to $7.6 million. The decrease includes a $1.1 million decrease in marketing expenses, a $1.7 million decrease in non-cash equity remuneration, and a $3.6 million decrease in salaries and other overheads from reduction in Tembo and Aevitas executive management and administrative team.

The results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2023 include $2.1 million restructuring and other non-recurring costs primarily due a provision in respect of fiscal refunds on prior receivables, which the Company is defending.

Net finance costs from continuing operations of $6.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 include $3.8 million interest on related party loans, $1.6 million net foreign exchange losses and $0.8 million combined from dividends from Aevitas Preference Shares, interest on leases and interest on other debt.

As at June 30, 2023, the Group’s current assets were $10.3 million (as at June 30, 2022: $21.7 million restated; June 30, 2021: $24.5 million restated), representing a decrease from June 30, 2022, mostly due to the disposal of assets held for sale relating to the J.A. Martin ex-solar segment (as at June 30, 2022: $8.2 million) upon the sale of the business to ARA in July 2022. Current assets were comprised of $0.6 million of cash and cash equivalents (as at June 30, 2022: $1.3 million; June 30, 2021: $8.6 million), $0.6 million of restricted cash (as at June 30, 2022: $1.2 million; June 30, 2021: $1.1 million;), and $7.0 million of trade and other receivables (as at June 30, 2022: $9.1 million; June 30, 2021: $12.8 million), and $2.1m of inventory (as at June 30, 2022: $1.9 million; June 30, 2021: $2.0 million). 30 June 2022 and 30 June 2021 current assets were restated for a $0.5m reclassification from Intangible Assets to Deposits. 

Current liabilities were $18.9 million as at June 30, 2023 (as at June 30, 2022, $23.3 million restated; June 30, 2021: $13.4 million). The decrease from prior year reflects negotiation of shareholder loans and accrued interest to non-current terms, and disposal of liabilities held for sale (as at June 30, 2022, $1.5 million) following sale of J.A. Martin ex-solar to ARA in July 2022. 30 June 2022 current liabilities were restated for an accrual of $0.5m expenses relating to 2022 but incurred in 2023.

Current asset-to-liability ratio as at June 30, 2023 was 0.54:1 (as at June 30, 2022 restated: 0.93:1; June 30, 2021 restated: 1.82:1). 

2

As at June 30, 2023, the Company had net assets of $3.7 million (as at June 30, 2022 restated, $21.6 million; June 30, 2021: $40.4 million), including intangible assets of $42.2 million (as at June 30, 2022 restated: $39.6 million; June 30, 2021 restated: $46 million). Property, plant and equipment remained at $3.7 million as at June 30, 2023 (as at June 30, 2022, $3.7 million), mainly reflecting $0.6 million capital expenditure on plant and equipment, an additional leased property in Kenshaw, offset by depreciation charges. 30 June 2022 and 30 June 2021 were restated for a $0.5m reclassification from Intangible Assets to Deposits.

Cash outflow for the year ended June 30, 2023, was $0.7 million, arising from cash outflows from operating activities of $8.6 million and from cash used in investing activities of $1.9 million partially offset by cash inflow from financing activities of $9.8 million. At June 30, 2023, the Company had cash reserves of $0.6 million (June 30, 2022: $1.3 million) and debt of $32.4 million (June 30, 2022: $28.6 million), giving a net debt position of $31.8 million (June 30, 2022: $27.3 million).

Net cash outflows from investing activities of $1.9 million in the current year comprised $1.0 million net purchases of property, plant and equipment and $3.9 million investment in additional intangible assets pertaining to the EUV23 development project in Tembo, offset by the $2.9 million proceeds from the J.A Martin sale. 

Cash inflows from financing activities of $9.8 million in the year ended June 30, 2023 comprises $5.1 million net proceeds from the Nasdaq shelf raise in July 2022 and $3.6 million bridging loans from related party AWN, $1.3 million additional debtor financing, less $0.9 million repayments of related party and other borrowings paid.

Non-IFRS Financial Information

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure that we calculate as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment of assets, impairment of goodwill, other finance income and expenses, one-off non-recurring costs including restructuring expenses and non-cash equity remuneration. Adjusted EBITDA is disclosed here and elsewhere in this Annual Report to provide investors with additional information regarding our results of operations. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA for continuing operations, discontinued operations and the total Group for comparative purposes (see Note 22 to the financial statements for additional information on the results for discontinued operations).

We have included Adjusted EBITDA in this Annual Report because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparability across reporting periods by removing the effect of non-cash expenses, non-operating income/(expense), and material non-recurring items. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

We believe it is useful to exclude non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation expense, from our Adjusted EBITDA because the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. We believe it is useful to exclude income tax benefit/(expense) and net finance expenses as these items are not components of our core business operations. We believe it is useful to exclude material non-recurring items, which is not indicative of our performance in the future. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as a financial measure, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for profit/loss for the period as a profit measure or other analysis of our results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are:

• Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditures;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect share-based compensation, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a recurring expense in our business and an important part of our compensation strategy;

• Although share-based compensation expenses are non-cash charges, we cannot assure that we will not perform a buy-back or other similar transaction which leads to a cash outflow;

• While losses are resulted from material non-recurring events, there is no assurance that such or similar losses will not recur in the future; and

• Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, operating profit/loss, profit/loss for the period and our other IFRS results.

Income Statement from continuing operations

Revenue

Revenue from continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2023 decreased $7.4 million or 33% to $15.1 million, from $22.4 million in the year ended June 30, 2022. Revenue from continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2022 decreased $1.5 million or 6% to $22.4 million, from $24.0 million in the year ended June 30, 2021. 

Revenue from continuing operations by product and service is follows:

	Year Ended June 30
(US dollars in thousands)	2023		2022		2021
Electrical products and related services	$	13,596	$	20,958	$	22,581
Electric vehicles & related products & services		1,464		1,490		1,394
Total revenue	$	15,060	$	22,448	$	23,975

The sale of electrical products, related services and solutions is generated from our Australian-based Critical Power Services businesses and is focused on the design, supply, installation and maintenance of power and control systems. Revenue generated in these operations is recognized in two ways. On smaller projects, revenue is recognized when the project is completed and is invoiced at that time. On larger projects, revenue is recognized on the achievement of specific milestones defined in each individual project. When the milestones and performance obligations are reached, the customer is invoiced, and the revenue is then recognized.

Revenue from continuing operations from electrical products, related services and solutions for the year ended June 30, 2023, of $13.6 million decreased $7.4 million compared to the $21.0 million earned for the year ended June 30, 2022. This is primarily a result of a $6.0 million reduction in solar project revenue in Aevitas Solar, as a result of (i) Edenvale Solar Project being the only major active project during the current period, compared to having two major active projects, Hillston and Bluegrass, in the prior period, and (ii) ongoing skills shortages in the electrical and building & construction industry causing difficulties in resourcing projects to meet demand. Revenue was also impacted by a net $0.9 million reduction in Kenshaw revenues, although on a constant AUD to USD exchange rate basis, revenues in Kenshaw were flat on the prior year. This comprises a $3.0 million reduction in generator sales and installation, offset by a $2.2 million increase in higher margin sales in generator service and motor sales and overhaul.

Revenue from electric vehicles, related products, services and solutions is generated from our Electric Vehicles businesses in the Netherlands: Tembo 4x4 and FD 4x4 Centre and is focused on electric vehicle conversion kits, and vehicle ruggedization products. Revenue generated in these operations is recognized when the products are delivered to customers. Revenue from electric vehicles and related products and services amounted to $1.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 compared to $1.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2022. No significant revenue was recognised on EUV conversion kit development whilst the EUV23 development project advanced towards production. Vehicle conversion revenues for ruggedization of non-EV vehicles benefitted from a significant ruggedization contract for 15 vehicles with Boliden mine in Ireland in FY2023. It should be noted that orders for the EUV23 conversion kits received in FY2023 were accounted for in Deferred Revenues on the Balance Sheet.

Revenue from continuing operations by geographic location is follows:

	Year Ended June 30
(US dollars in thousands)	2023		2022		2021
Australia	$	13,596	$	20,958	$	22,581
Netherlands		1,464		1,490		1,394
United States		-		-		-
Total revenue	$	15,060	$	22,448	$	23,975

Australian revenue of $13.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 was comprised solely of $13.6 million revenue from Critical Power Services provided by Kenshaw and Aevitas Solar. This compares to $21.0 million in the year ended June 30, 2022 and $22.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in Australian revenue in the year ended June 30, 2023, compared to the prior year, is primarily driven by (i) Edenvale Solar Project being the only major active project during the current period, compared to having two major active projects, Hillston and Bluegrass, in the prior period, and (ii) ongoing skills shortages in the electrical and building & construction industry causing difficulties in resourcing projects to meet demand.

Netherlands revenue was $1.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 and $1.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2022, representing contribution from the Electric Vehicle business unit, in particular driven by Boliden ruggedization contracts in FY2023. The business remains primarily focused on development of its core EUV23 conversion kit solution for which it has already received orders. It should be noted that the cash down-payment on orders for the EUV23 conversion kits received in FY2023 were accounted for in Deferred Revenues on the Balance Sheet.

The Group had one customer representing more than 10% of revenue for the year ended June 30, 2023 (year ended June 30, 2022: one). This customer represented approximately $2.6 million of the Company’s total revenues and is reported within the Critical Power Services segment for the year ended June 30, 2023.

General and Administrative Expenses

	Year Ended June 30
(US dollars in thousands)	2023		2022 (restated)
Salaries and benefits	$	3,333	$	8,670
Professional fees		2,325		2,198
Insurance		570		474
Travel		187		141
IT licensing and support		694		482
Marketing and public relations		199		1,279
Office and other expenses		312		567
Total general and administrative expenses	$	7,620	$	13,811

General and administrative expenses from continuing operations decreased by $6.2 million to $7.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, compared to $13.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2022 restated. These expenses consist primarily of operational expenses, such as those related to employee salaries and benefits, professional fees, insurance, travel, IT, marketing, office and other expenses, as well as vesting at grant date share price of non-cash equity incentive costs of share awards previously granted under the Company’s Omnibus Incentive Plan, in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payments.

Salaries and benefits were $3.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, (year ended June 30, 2022 restated, $8.7 million), accounting for 44% of total general and administrative expenses, (year ended June 30, 2022, 63%). Non-cash equity incentive costs contributed $0.1 million (year ended June 30, 2022: $1.9 million) to the salaries and benefits expense. Underlying cash salaries and benefits of $3.2 million decreased by $3.6 million or 53% in the year, reflecting a realignment of the team onto product development project activity and a commensurate increase in capitalized intangible costs, and reduction in Aevitas personnel following the sale of the J.A. Martin ex-solar business. 30 June 2022 was restated for $0.1 million payroll costs paid in the period 30 June 2023 but relating to services provided in the period to 30 June 2022.

Professional fees of $2.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 or 31% of total general and administrative expenses (year ended June 30, 2022 restated, $2.2 million), were comprised of audit and accounting fees, consulting fees to support business development and legal fees. 30 June 2022 was restated for $0.3m legal expenses originally capitalised in the period to 30 June 2023 in Caret but should be expensed in the period to 30 June 2022.

Insurance expense of $0.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 was marginally higher than the $0.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2022 reflecting improved coverage.

IT licensing and support expenses represent the costs of accounting, operations, email and office, file storage, and security software products and licenses. IT expenses increased by $0.2 million to $0.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2023, comprising $0.2 million in the Corporate Office segment due to increased activity to support growth activities and automate processes with scalable software.

Marketing expenses include promotional advertisements and trade shows. Marketing costs of $0.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 reduced significantly compared to the prior year, relying more efficiently on sales team-driven partnerships and customer presentations, than paid marketing arrangements. 

Office and other expenses include office and meeting space rental, communication, bank fees and general office administrative costs. Office and other expenses of $0.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $0.3 million in the year due to savings in Aevitas following sale of J.A. Martin ex-solar.

Gain/(loss) on Solar Development

Gain on Solar Development projects from continuing operations was nil for the year ended June 30, 2023. This compares to a nil gain in the year ended June 30, 2022, comprising a $0.1 million write-off of costs incurred on uneconomic projects in Caret, offset by $0.1 million gain on sale of tangible assets in Critical Power Systems. In the year ended June 30, 2021 a gain of $0.8 million arose comprising a $0.9 million bargain purchase gain on acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in Caret offset by a $0.2 million loss on solar development projects in VivoPower Pty Ltd in Australia. 

Other Income

Other income of $0.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 compares to $0.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2022, mainly relating to COVID-19 grants and subsidies in Critical Power Services in Australia.

Under IFRS, intangible assets and goodwill are subject to an annual impairment review. No impairment charge was recorded for the year, following the impairment review as of June 30, 2023.

An impairment review tests the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit which gave rise to the intangible asset or goodwill in order to determine the existence or extent of any impairment loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and the value in use to the Group. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount. In determining a cash-generating unit’s or asset’s value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time-value of money and risks specific to the cash-generating unit or asset that have not already been included in the estimate of future cash flows. All impairment losses are recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

The Group conducts impairment tests on the carrying value of goodwill annually, or more frequently if there are any indications that goodwill might be impaired. The recoverable amount of the Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”) to which goodwill has been allocated are determined from value in use calculations. The key assumptions in the calculations are the discount rates applied, expected operating margin levels and long-term growth rates. Management estimates discount rates that reflect the current market assessments while margins and growth rates are based upon approved budgets and related projections.

The Group prepares cash flow forecasts using the approved budgets for the coming fiscal year and management projections for the following two years. Cash flows are also projected for subsequent years as management believe that the investment is held for the long term. These budgets and projections reflect management’s view of the expected market conditions and the position of the CGU’s products and services within those markets.

The CGU represented by Aevitas O Holdings Limited (being Critical Power Services) was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no additional adjustments to goodwill were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were discount rate based on the weighted average cost of capital of 12% (June 30, 2022: 11%; June 30, 2021: 10%) and annual growth rate of 3% per annum.

The solar element of the CGU represented by VivoPower Pty Ltd goodwill was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no additional adjustments to goodwill were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were weighted average cost of capital of 11.3% (June 30, 2022: 11.3%; June 30, 2021: 10.7%), an average annual growth rate in years 2-5 of 60% during the rapid growth phase of the business, with an average of 50% of electric light vehicles sold by the Company in fleet sizes over 50 vehicles will be sold with an additional sustainable energy solution.

The CGU represented by Tembo e-LV and subsidiaries was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were discount rate based on the weighted average cost of capital of 12% and average annual growth rate of 33% per annum in years 2-5. Growth rates reflect commencement of planned series production at volume during the 5 year period, as the product development project is completed for the current variant, to meet customer demand per sales agreements of over 15,000 units with international distribution partners, including Acces, Bodiz, GHH, ETC, Ulti-Mech, Petrosea and Fourche Maline. No sensitivity analysis is provided as the Company expects no foreseeable changes in the assumptions that would result in impairment of the goodwill.

The CGU represented by Caret solar projects was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no adjustments to capitalized development costs were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were weighted average cost of capital of 12.9%, $4 million free cash flow from project sales in years 1-4, $14.4 million development fees from power-to-x partnerships.

Restructuring and Other Non-Recurring Costs

Restructuring costs by nature are one-time incurrences, and therefore, we believe have no bearing on the financial performance of our business. To enable comparability in future periods, the costs are disclosed separately on the face of our Statement of Comprehensive Income.

(US dollars in thousands)	Year Ended June 30
	2023			2022			2021
Corporate restructuring - legal and other fees	$	200		$	189		$	179
Corporate restructuring - litigation provision		-			(128	)		2,042
Fiscal refunds provision		1,768			-			-
Impairment and write-off		422			-			-
Relocation		-			-			27
Remediation costs		(361	)		382			-
Acqusition related costs		55						631
Total restructuring costs	$	2,084		$	443		$	2,880

For the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred non-recurring costs primarily related to a provision in respect of fiscal refunds on prior receivables, which the Company is defending. This also includes restructuring activities of $0.2 million and provision for inventory obsolescence and write-off of bad debts of $0.4 million, offset by $0.4 million release of remediation provision. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred non-recurring costs related to restructuring activities of $0.2 million and one-off remediation expenses of $0.4 million, offset by $0.1 million release of unutilized provision related to the Comberg Claims. For the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred non-recurring costs for legal fees as well as a litigation provision relating to legal costs and settlement monies pertaining to the Comberg Claims of $0.2 million and $2.0 million respectively (see “Item 8. Financial Information – A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information – Legal Proceedings”).

Finance Income and Expense

Finance income of $1.2 million, $0.2 million and $2.2 million for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022and 2021 respectively comprise foreign exchange gains for the year.

Finance expense of $7.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2023 consists primarily of interest expense associated with the interest payable on outstanding related party loans with AWN of $3.8 million and foreign exchange losses of $2.7 million. In the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred finance costs of $8.6 million comprising $3.4m interest on AWN loans, interest on Aevitas Preference Shares of $0.2 million, interest on lease liabilities of $0.1 million and net foreign exchange losses of $4.7 million. In the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred finance costs of $2.5m consisting of $2.0 million on the parent company loan, interest on the Aevitas convertible preference share, loan notes and non-convertible preference shares of $1.2 million, interest and fees on debtor invoice financing in Critical Power Services of $0.1 million, and interest on lease liabilities of $0.1 million offset by $1.0 million of waived dividends and interest on convertible preference shared and loan notes.

The components of net finance expense from continuing operations are as follows:

	Year Ended June 30
(US dollars in thousands)	2023		2022		2021
Shareholder loan	$	3,801	$	3,351	$	1,986
Convertible preference shares and loan notes		254		217		1,228
Debtor invoice financing		100		24		96
Interest on leases		171		133		91
Other finance costs		330		167		90
Foreign exchange		1,554		4,540		(2,222	)
Waived dividends and interest on convertible preference shares and loan notes		-		-		(995	)
Total net finance expenses	$	6,210	$	8,431	$	274

Foreign exchange gain/losses consists primarily of foreign exchange fluctuations related to short-term intercompany accounts and foreign currency exchange gains and losses related to transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency for each of our subsidiaries. We expect our foreign currency exchange gains and losses to continue to fluctuate in the future as foreign currency exchange rates change. The Group’s investments in overseas subsidiaries are not hedged as those currency positions are either USD denominated and/or considered to be long-term in nature. AWN loans of $32.4 million are mostly denominated in USD, upon which there is minimal foreign currency risk.

Income Tax

We are subject to income tax for the year ended June 30, 2023 at rates of 19% to 25%, 21%, 26% to 30%, 9% and 15% to 25.8% in the U.K., the U.S., Australia, United Arab Emirates and the Netherlands respectively. We use estimates in determining our provision for income taxes. We account for income taxes in accordance with IFRS Standard IAS 12 Income Taxes, using an asset and liability approach that requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax basis, and for net operating loss and tax credits.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that the growth of our business and our future success are dependent upon a number of key factors, including the following:

Market demand for our products and services. Our business and revenues depend on the demand for our products and services. The market demand for electric vehicles, critical power services, sustainable energy solutions and solar development projects is heavily influenced by a range of factors that include the governmental economic, fiscal, and political polices at both the national and state levels in the U.S., Australia, Europe, the United Kingdom and the rest of the world, as well as global economic and political factors affecting the cost, availability, and desirability of renewable energy, other energy sources. Other external factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tension in Ukraine may also affect demand for our products and services.

Competitiveness of our products and services. Our products and services need to be competitive in terms of price and quality with competition in each of our markets. Tembo in particular operates in a market that is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, new competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new vehicle announcements and changing consumer demands and behaviors. In order to stay competitive and relevant, it needs to continuously innovate and invest in product development and new technologies. Our critical power services businesses face pricing pressure in a competitive market and must continually improve cost efficiencies.

Operational scale up of electric vehicle assembly and delivery capabilities. Tembo faces operational risks as a maker of battery-electric ruggedized and off-road vehicles embarking on an exponential scale up of its assembly and delivery capabilities. Growth is dependent on securing appropriate premises and equipment, achieving design and manufacturing process goals, achieving compliance with safety regulations and standards, recruiting and retaining suitably qualified personnel, overcoming any delays and, resolving any supply chain shortages, to be able to deliver the volume and quality of products required to meet customer commitments.

Delivering electric vehicle products and services to customers’ requirements and regulatory standards. Following the acquisition of Tembo, we signed distribution agreements with a number of partners globally, to sell Tembo EUV conversion kits. Meeting the technical specifications, quality and safety standards of our customers and partners is a key driver of ensuring Tembo’s brand, reputation, revenue and future prospects. Product failures in service could leave us exposed to future warranty claims. Failure to meet the required regulations and standards in the markets we serve could require product recalls and fines and penalties.

Development and scale up of the SES solutions business. Whilst we have experience in developing, financing, building and operating solar power systems and distributed generation solar systems, we have limited experience and track record in combining this experience to then develop and offer a complete SES solution with microgrids, battery recycling and reuse and are still in the process of building the capabilities in the team. Developing and/or acquiring these capabilities is a key factor in expanding our SES solutions business.

Supply chain execution. Materials deliveries from suppliers are at risk of disruption due to external events and factors such as COVID-19, semiconductor shortages and conflict in Ukraine. Overcoming challenging supply chain issues is a key factor in our businesses being able to deliver goods and services to our customers in line with their requirements and meet our revenue growth targets.

Inflation. The economic volatility attributable initially to COVID-19 and then to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is part of and contributing to a larger trend of rising inflation around the globe, which may have a significant adverse effect on economic activity and our business.

Ability to secure capital at attractive rates and terms. Our businesses are capital intensive requiring significant investment in operational expenditure and capital expenditure to realize the growth potential of our electric vehicle, critical power services, sustainable energy solutions and solar development businesses. In addition, we are subject to significant and ongoing administrative and related expenses required to operate and grow a public company. Together these items impose substantial legal and financial compliance costs. As a result, we expect to require some combination of additional financing options in order to execute our strategy and meet the operating cash flow requirements necessary to operate and grow our business.

Currency fluctuations. We conduct business in the U.S., Australia, United Arab Emirates, the Netherlands and the U.K. As a result, we are exposed to risks associated with fluctuations in currency exchange rates, particularly between the U.S. dollar, the British Pound, the Euro and the Australian dollar.

Ability to attract and retain talent. We are looking to rapidly hyperscale our business in the face of fierce competition for talent and short timeframes. To achieve our operational goals, we need to attract high caliber talent quickly.

If we continue to experience losses and we are not able to raise additional financing to provide the funding to grow the revenue streams of the Company to become profit making, or generate cash through sales of assets, we may not have sufficient liquidity to sustain our operations and to continue as a going concern, accordingly there is a material uncertainty that may cause significant doubt about the going concern nature of the Group. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. See section 2.1 on “Basis of Preparation”.

In December 2021, a short term loan of $1.1 million (A$1.5 million) was provided from AWN to Aevitas O Holdings Pty Limited at an interest rate of 10.0%, increasing to 12.5% from January 1, 2022. The loan is set to expire on April 1, 2025 (initially set as April 30, 2022, then extended on June 30, 2022, to October 1, 2023, then extended on January 11, 2023 to April 1, 2025). The requirement for the loan to expire upon completion by VivoPower International PLC of a debt or equity raise of at least $25 million was dropped on June 30, 2023. Facility extension fees of $29,000 (A$40,000) and $43,500 (A$60,000) are payable upon maturity, relating to the two extensions respectively.

On February 22, 2022, a short term $3.0 million loan was provided from AWN to Aevitas O Holdings Pty Limited, with interest rate of 10.00% per annum payable on the principal sum upon maturity. The loan is set to expire on April 1, 2025 (initially set as May 13, 2022, then extended on June 30, 2022, to October 1, 2023, then extended on January 11, 2023 to April 1, 2025). The requirement for the loan to expire upon completion by VivoPower of a debt or equity raise of at least $25 million was dropped on June 30, 2023. Facility extension fees of $85,000 and $110,000 are payable upon maturity, relating to the two extensions respectively.

On December 22, 2022, a short term $3.0 million loan was provided from AWN to Aevitas O Holdings Pty Limited, with interest rate of BBSY bid floating rate (on average 3.60% for the period from inception to June 30, 2023) plus fixed margin of 15.0% per annum payable on the principal sum upon maturity. A 1% facility establishment fee of $30,000 was deducted upon initial loan drawdown, and a further 3% exit fee of $90,000 is payable on expiry. The loan is set to expire on April 1, 2025 (initially set as October 1, 2023, then extended on January 11, 2023 to April 1, 2025). The requirement for the loan to expire upon completion by VivoPower of a debt or equity raise of at least $25 million was agreed on January 11, 2023, then dropped on June 30, 2023. A facility extension fee of $115,000 is payable upon maturity. 

In February and March 2023, further short term loans of A$0.5 million and A$0.25 million were established between AWN and Aevitas O Holdings Pty Limited, drawn down between February and May 2023. The loans have interest rate of BBSY bid floating rate plus fixed margin of 15.0% per annum payable on the principal sum upon maturity, with expiry dates of June 30, 2023. 1% facility establishment fees of total A$7,500 were deducted upon loan drawdowns, and further 3% exit fees of total A$22,500 are payable on expiry. On June 30, 2023, the expiry of the loans was amended to August 31, 2023.

Following the sale of ex-solar J.A. Martin operations on July 1, 2022, the J.A. Martin debtor finance facility was cancelled, but a new facility with a limit of A$2.5 million and variable interest rate (initial rate 7.75%) was opened by Kenshaw, as well as a trade finance facility of $0.5 million. The debtor finance facility was partially drawn down at June 30, 2023, with an outstanding balance of $1.3 million (A$2.0 million), due to timing of operating activities (June 30, 2022: nil).

Cash Reserves and Liquidity

Cash reserves at June 30, 2023, of $0.6 million are unrestricted and are domiciled as follows:

	Local currency			Amount in USD
AUD		800,542			543,044
EUR		15,184			19,547
USD		18,364			18,364
GBP		(21,983	)		(27,741	)
Total cash reserve					553,214

Our treasury policy is to maintain sufficient cash reserves denominated in the currencies required for near term working capital to minimize the risk of currency fluctuation. Cash reserves are monitored on a daily basis to maximize capital efficiency. Our cash position is reviewed weekly by senior management to ensure the allocation best meets the coming needs of the business.

The SES business is reliant for liquidity on the completion of and, or sale of specific projects. As the projects are dependent on negotiations with external parties, delays in the sale process could adversely affect our liquidity.

The Electric Vehicles business is reliant for liquidity on financing from asset and working capital financing, equity capital raises, and a growing revenue stream as the business scales.

We review our forecasted cash flows on an on-going basis to ensure that we will have sufficient capital from a combination of internally generated cash flows and proceeds from financing activities, if required, in order to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements and to meet our short-term debt obligations and other liabilities and commitments as they become due.

If we continue to experience losses and we are not able to raise additional financing to provide the funding to grow the revenue streams of the Company to become profit making, or generate cash through sales of assets, we may not have sufficient liquidity to sustain our operations and to continue as a going concern, accordingly there is a material uncertainty that may cause significant doubt about the going concern nature of the Group. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. See section 2.1 on “Basis of Preparation”.

C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.

Research and development expenditure includes the product development project for Tembo’s ruggedized electric vehicles, comprising pre-series-production expenditure on developing vehicle specifications and production processes that are fit for purpose for rugged off road environments including mining sites. Capitalized costs include primarily internal payroll costs, external expert consultants, equipment and technology hardware and software. In addition, there is additional research and development being conducted into other elements of vehicle electrification for off-road and rugged environments, including specialized batteries, charging devices, electric wire harnesses, telemetry, data capture and analytics and software tools.

Development expenditure on U.S. solar projects includes securing land rights, completing feasibility studies, negotiating power purchase agreements, and other costs incurred to prepare project sales for Notice to Proceed with construction and hence sale to a partner as a shovel ready project.

The Company expects to obtain adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the projects, and management consider that it is probable for the future economic benefits attributable to the development expenditure to flow to the entity; and that the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Accordingly, the development expenditure is recognized under IAS 38 – Intangible Assets as an intangible asset.

D. Trend Information

Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this Annual Report, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments, or events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our net revenues, income, profitability, liquidity or capital resources.

E. Critical Accounting Estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are required to make judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies and in making estimates and making assumptions about the future. These estimates could have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying value of assets and liabilities in the future financial periods. The critical judgements that have been made in arriving at the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are discussed below.

Revenue from contracts with customers – determining the timing of satisfaction of services

As disclosed in Note 2.15 to the Financial Statements, the Group concluded that Solar Development revenue and revenue from other long-term projects is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided. The Group determined that the percentage completion basis is the best method in measuring progress because there is a direct relationship between the Group’s effort and the transfer of services to the customer. The judgement used in applying the percentage completion basis affects the amount and timing of revenue from contracts.

Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment, investments and intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed for impairment only when events indicate the carrying value may be impaired. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or when events or changes to circumstances indicate that it might be impaired.

Impairment assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions. To assess impairment, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time-value of money and risks specific to the related cash-generating unit. Judgement was applied in making estimates and assumptions about the future cash flows, including the appropriateness of discounts rates applied and operating performance (which includes production and sales volumes), as further disclosed in Note 14. These estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty. Therefore, there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will impact these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of assets and/or CGUs.

Operating profit/(loss)

In preparing the consolidated financial statements of the Group, judgement was applied with respect to those items which are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income as included within operating profit/(loss). Those revenues and expenses which are determined to be specifically related to the on-going operating activities of the business are included within operating profit/(loss). Expenses or charges to earnings which are not related to operating activities, are one-time costs determined to be not representative of the normal trading activities of the business, or that arise from revaluation of assets, are reported below operating profit/(loss).

16

Litigation provision

No litigation provision was recorded at June 30, 2023. The provision of $0.5 million for disputed legal success fees related to the Mr. Comberg litigation recorded at June 30, 2021 was estimated by management, making a judgement in conjunction with advice from legal counsel, on the likely outcome of the claim. $0.4 million of this provision was utilized in the year ended June 30, 2022, and the remainder released.

Capitalization of product development costs

The Group capitalizes costs for product development projects in the EV segment. The capitalization of costs is based on management’s judgement that technological and economic feasibility is confirmed, and all other recognition criteria within IAS 38 can be demonstrated. In determining the amounts to be capitalized, management makes assumptions regarding the expected future cash generation, discount rates to be applied and the expected period of benefits. As of June 30, 2023, the carrying amount of capitalized development costs were $7.9 million (June 30, 2022: $3.8 million).

Contingent consideration on disposals

Included within the assessment of recoverable value for impairment purposes of assets held for sale related to the sale of the J.A. Martin ex-solar business, as at June 30, 2023, were estimates of the contingent consideration included within the sale agreement. The contingent consideration receivable 12 months following sale, is based on a multiple of earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of the business. The fair value of contingent consideration of $0.6 million applied a contracted 4.5x multiple to year 1 forecast EBITDA of $0.8 million, less purchase price paid. Final settlement of the contingent consideration was paid in August 2023, and the receivable amount and loss on disposal adjusted accordingly.

Income taxes

In recognizing income tax assets and liabilities, management makes estimates of the likely outcome of decisions by tax authorities on transactions and events whose treatment for tax purposes is uncertain. Where the outcome of such matters is different, or expected to be different, from previous assessments made by management, a change to the carrying value of the income tax assets and liabilities will be recorded in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying values of income tax assets and liabilities are disclosed separately in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets for unused tax losses amounting to $4.3 million at June 30, 2023 (June 30, 2022: $4.1 million; June 30, 2021: $1.9 million) are recognized to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilized. Management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted.

Exchangeable preference Shares, exchangeable notes and Aevitas Preference Shares

As part of the IPO listing process VivoPower acquired Aevitas. The instruments previously issued by Aevitas were restructured to become exchangeable into Ordinary Shares of the Company. The Company considered IAS 32 paragraph 16 in determining the accounting treatment of the exchangeable instruments. The Company has determined the instruments to be treated as equity under the “fixed-for-fixed” rule meaning that both the amount of consideration received/receivable and the number of equity instruments to be issued must be fixed for the instrument to be classified as equity. Both elements are satisfied within the instruments.

Whilst the majority of the Aevitas Preference Shares and exchangeable notes were converted into Ordinary Shares in VivoPower in July 2021 a minority of investors in the instruments elected to accept new Aevitas Preference Shares. The Company considered IAS 32 paragraph 16 in determining the accounting treatment, and has determined the new Aevitas Preference Shares instruments should be treated as equity.

Fair value measurement

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities recorded in the statement of financial position are measured using valuation techniques including discounted cash flow ("DCF") models. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value. When the fair values of non-financial assets/CGUs need to be determined, for example in business combinations and for impairment testing purposes, they are measured using valuation techniques including the DCF model.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of VivoPower International PLC

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF VIVOPOWER INTERNATIONAL PLC

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of VivoPower International plc and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of cash flow and consolidated statements of changes in equity for each of the year ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Material uncertainty related to going concern

We draw attention to note 2 in the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that the group has significant outstanding liabilities and needs to raise funds either through debt or equity in order to meet its obligations as they fall due and to support the planned growth of the Group during the going concern period. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in note 2. As stated in note 2, these events or conditions, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our evaluation of the directors’ assessment of the group’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included a review of the group and budgets and cash flow forecasts for the period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements, including checking the mathematical accuracy of the budgets and discussion of significant assumptions used by the management. We have also reviewed the latest available post year end management accounts, bank statements, regulatory announcements and board minutes and assessed subsequent events impacting going concern. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Critical audit matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters do not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Critical Audit Matter	How we addressed the matter in our audit
Revenue recognition
Revenue for the year ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $15.1 million and details of the related critical judgements and estimates are disclosed in note 3.1. There is a risk of misstatement of revenue from contracts with customers arising from the following areas which makes this a key focus for our audit: ●    identification of performance obligations in customer contracts; ●    judging the timing of satisfaction of performance obligations; ●    allocation of transaction price; ●    measuring the stage of completion for long term contracts (outputs versus inputs method) and ●    determining the costs incurred to obtain or fulfil contracts with customers.		Our work in this area included: ●Updating our understanding of the internal control environment in operation for the significant revenue streams, and checking by walkthrough tests our understanding of the internal control environment for the significant income streams; ● Reviewing the work undertaken by component auditors in accordance with the issued component instructions, including regular communication throughout the audit; ● Performing controls testing on the key controls applicable to the contract and revenue cycle; ● Substantively testing a sample of contracts concluded and in progress at the year-end, including contract assets and liabilities and deferred and accrued income, and testing the stage of completion; ● Reviewing post year-end cash receipts and documents to test the completeness, cut-off and accuracy of revenue around the year-end; and ● Ensuring the revenue related disclosures in the financial statements are complete and accurate.
Recoverability of intangible assets
As at June 30, 2023 the carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets was $42.2 million. Details of these assets and the related critical judgements and estimates are disclosed in notes 3.2 and 14. Each year management is required to assess whether goodwill is impaired and consider whether the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount using discounted cash flows. Intangible assets subject to amortization are assessed for indicators of impairment. Impairment assessments require the use of estimates, judgements and assumptions. The calculation of the recoverable amount is dependent on various significant judgements and estimates, including forecasts and discount rates. The subjectivity of the judgements and estimates and the significant carrying value of the assets makes this a key area of focus for our audit.		Our work in this area included: ● Reviewing and challenging management’s value in use calculations including the rationale behind the key assumptions and cash flow forecasts; ● Checking the mathematical accuracy of the value in use calculations; ● Performing sensitivity analysis on reasonably possible changes in key assumptions and the impact on the headroom; ● Assessing the accuracy of budgets and forecasts used in prior periods to actual results; ● Performing an independent assessment to identify any indicators of impairment; and ● Assessing the appropriateness of  group’s disclosures in respect of the judgements and estimates on whether an impairment exists and the sensitivity analysis on the headroom (refer to Note 14).

We have served as the Company’s auditors since 2017.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

for the Year Ended June 30, 2023

1. Reporting entity

VivoPower International PLC (“VivoPower” or the “Company”) is a public company limited by shares and incorporated under the laws of England and Wales and domiciled in the United Kingdom. The address of the Company’s registered office is The Scalpel, 18th Floor, 52 Lime Street, London EC3M 7AF, United Kingdom. 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group" and individually as "Group entities"). Since June 30, 2021, the Company no longer has an ultimate controlling party, as AWN Holdings Limited (collectively with its affiliates and subsidiaries, "AWN") holds less than 50% equity interest in the Company, being 39.5% as at June 30, 2023. In prior periods, the ultimate controlling party and the results into which these financials were consolidated was AWN, a company registered in Australia.

2. Significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of preparation

VivoPower International PLC consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, IFRIC interpretations and the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except when accounting for acquisitions, whereby fair values have been applied.

The preparation of financial statements with adopted IFRS requires the use of critical accounting estimates. It also requires the management to exercise judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where the assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 3.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

As at June 30, 2023, the Company had unrestricted cash totalling $0.6 million, compared to $1.3 million as at  June 30, 2022 and $8.6 million as at June 30, 2021. It also has outstanding debt and borrowing totaling $32.4 million, compared to $28.6 million as at June 30, 2022 and $23.1 million as at June 30, 2021. Most of these borrowings do not fall due for repayment until 1 April 2025 and are thus classified under long-term liabilities.

Over the next twelve months, the Company expects significant growth in revenues and continued EBITDA generation in critical power systems, a material increase in revenue and costs in scaling up the Electric Vehicles business as the operation scales series production of its EUV23 conversion kits to match the demand from its signed partnerships. The Company will also be investing in further capitalized development costs in electric vehicles in preparation for Tembo series production. In addition, it expects to fund selective development of the U.S. solar portfolio to maximize future sales proceeds, as well as development of microgrid, EV charging and battery energy storage capabilities, as part of the scaling up of the SES business unit. The Company will also be investing in property, plant and equipment, particularly in Tembo.

This expected growth implies sizeable funding requirements over FY2024, which the Company is planning to finance through significant equity capital raises, asset-backed financing, debtor financing, working capital optimization with suppliers and customers, and tax relief on R&D expenditure, either at Group or subsidiary levels depending on what is best suited to the Company’s growth needs and optimizing for cost of capital. 

F- 9

 

To ensure success of the business, the directors have reviewed additional plans to mitigate any cash flow risk that may arise during the next twelve months. These include:

● Regular re-forecasting process and flexing of opex and capex cost growth according to liquidity needs;

● Phased approach to hiring of personnel to sustain growth of the Tembo business;

● Staging the timing of property, plant and equipment and software capex to match asset-backed financing inflows;

● Obtain Research & Development grants in the U.K., Europe and Australia to help fund investment in electric, solar and battery technologies;

● Careful project planning and commercial structuring of SES projects;

● Possible sale, spin off, or distribution in specie of Caret, LLC ("Caret"), formerly Innovative Solar Ventures I, LLC ("ISV");

● Purchase order financing, debtor financing facilities;

● Staging the timing of equity raises to minimize dilution; and

● Renegotiation of terms on loans and supply chain.

Based on the foregoing expectations of funding needs, and actions prepared and presented by management to the Board of Directors, the Directors consider that these actions can provide sufficient cash to support business operations and meet funding requirements as they become due, despite financial, economic and political uncertainty. If we continue to experience losses and we are not able to raise additional financing to provide the funding to grow the revenue streams of the Company to become profit making, or generate cash through sales of assets, we may not have sufficient liquidity to sustain our operations and to continue as a going concern, accordingly there is a material uncertainty that may cause significant doubt about the going concern nature of the Group. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

All financial information presented in US dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

2.2 Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include those of VivoPower International PLC and all of its subsidiary undertakings.

Subsidiary undertakings are those entities controlled directly or indirectly by the Company. The Company controls an investee when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The results of the subsidiaries acquired are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date of acquisition using the same accounting policies of those of the Group. All business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is the fair value at the acquisition date of the assets transferred and the liabilities incurred by the Group and includes the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are recognized in the income statement as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair value at the acquisition date.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with those used by other members of the Group.

All intra-group balances and transactions, including any unrealized income and expense arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in full in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealized gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

2.3 Business combination

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the:

● fair values of the assets transferred

● liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired businesses

● equity interests issued by the Company

● fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, and

● fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquired entity’s net identifiable assets. Acquisition-related costs are expenses as incurred.

F- 10

 

The excess of the:

● consideration transferred

● amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity, and

● acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquired entity

over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the business acquired, the difference is recognized directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from such remeasurement are recognized in profit or loss.

2.4 Intangible assets

All intangible assets, except goodwill, are stated at fair value less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized and is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Any gain on a bargain purchase is recognized in profit or loss immediately.

Goodwill

Goodwill arose on the effective acquisition of VivoPower Pty Ltd, Aevitas O Holdings Limited (“Aevitas”) and Tembo e-LV B.V. Goodwill is reviewed annually to test for impairment.

Negative goodwill arose on the acquisition of the remaining 50% share of ISV from Innovative Solar Systems, LC ("ISS"), constituting a bargain purchase. The gain was immediately recognized in the profit and loss during the year ended June 30, 2021.

Other intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired through a business combination are initially measured at fair value and then amortized over their useful economic lives. Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

Development expenditure includes the product development project for ruggedized electric vehicles in Tembo, pre-series-production expenditure on developing vehicle specifications and production processes. Capitalized costs include primarily internal payroll costs, external consultants and computer software.

F- 11

 

Development expenditure on U.S. solar projects includes securing land rights, completing feasibility studies, negotiating power purchase agreements, and other costs incurred to prepare project sales for Notice to Proceed with construction and hence sale to a partner as a shovel ready project.

For both electric vehicles product development project, and U.S. solar development projects, it is the Company’s intention to complete the projects. It expects to obtain adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the projects, and management consider that it is probable for the future economic benefits attributable to the development expenditure to flow to the entity; and that the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Accordingly, the development expenditure is recognized under IAS 38 – Intangible Assets as an intangible asset.

All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, and research costs, are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis to write down the assets over their useful economic lives at the following rates:

● Development expenditure - 5 to 10 years

● Customer relationships – 5 to 10 years

● Trade names – 15 to 25 years

● Favorable supply contracts – 15 years

● Other – 5 years

2.5 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price and the costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into use.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis so as to write down the assets to their estimated residual value over their useful economic lives at the following rates:

● Computer equipment - 3 years

● Fixtures and fittings - 3 to 20 years

● Motor vehicles - 5 years

● Plant and equipment – 3.5 to 10 years

● Right-of-use assets – remaining term of lease

2.6 Assets classified as held for sale and discontinued operations

Assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at the lower of their carrying value and fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognized for any subsequent write-down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell.

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately in the statement of profit or loss.

2.7 Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, in accordance with IAS 2 – Inventories. The cost includes all direct and indirect variable production expenses, plus fixed expenses based on the normal capacity of each production facility. The net realizable value of inventories intended to be sold corresponds to their selling price, as estimated based on market conditions and any relevant external information sources, less the estimated costs necessary to complete the sale.

F- 12

 

2.8 Leases

The Group leases offices, workshops, motor vehicles, and equipment for fixed periods of 2 months to 8 years but may have extension options. Extension options are not recognized by the Group in the determination of lease liabilities unless renewals are reasonably certain.

Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Group allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices. However, for leases of real estate for which the Group is a lessee, it has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components and instead accounts for these as a single lease component.

Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants other than the security interests in the leased assets that are held by the lessor. Leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.

Leases are recognized as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis, with lease payments discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate is used. The Group presents lease liabilities in loans and borrowings in the Statement of Financial Position.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Right-of-use assets are presented in property, plant and equipment and depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.

2.9 Impairment of non-financial assets

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purposes of impairment testing. The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (‘CGU’) to which the goodwill relates is tested annually for impairment or when events or changes to circumstances indicate that it might be impaired.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment, investments and intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed for impairment only when events indicate the carrying value may be impaired.

In an impairment test the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit or asset is estimated in order to determine the existence or extent of any impairment loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and the value in use to the Group. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount. In determining a cash-generating unit’s or asset’s value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time-value of money and risks specific to the cash-generating unit or asset that have not already been included in the estimate of future cash flows. All impairment losses are recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In the case of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. These impairment losses are reversed if there has been any change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent so that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

F- 13

 

2.10 Financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized in the Group’s Statement of Financial Position when the Group becomes a party to the contracted provision of the instrument. The following policies for financial instruments have been applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

● those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss; and,

● those to be measured at amortized cost.

The classification depends on the business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Financial assets are classified as at amortized cost only if both of the following criteria are met:

● the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows; and,

● the contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

● in the principal market for the asset or liability; or,

● in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

Level 1 - quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3 - valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of preparation of the Statement of Cash Flow, cash and cash equivalents includes cash at bank and in hand.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash are cash and cash equivalents whose availability for use within the Group is subject to certain restrictions by third parties.

Bank borrowings

Interest-bearing bank loans are recorded at the proceeds received. Direct issue costs paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognized over the term of the loan on a straight-line basis. The initial payment is taken to the Statement of Financial Position and then amortized over the full-length of the facility.

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for the expected future issue of credit notes and for non-recoverability due to credit risk. The Group applies the IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables and contract assets. To measure expected credit losses, trade receivables and contract assets have been grouped based on shared risk characteristics.

Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are non-interest bearing and are stated at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

F- 14

 

Share capital

Ordinary Shares, nominal value $0.012 per share (the "Ordinary Shares") are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of Ordinary Shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

Repurchase of share capital (treasury shares)

When share capital recognized as equity is repurchased as equity by the Company the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, net of any tax effects, is recognized as a deduction from equity, and excluded from the number of shares in issue when calculating earnings per share.

2.11 Taxation

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax.

Current tax is recognized based on the amounts expected to be paid or recovered under the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is provided on temporary timing differences that arise between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their corresponding tax values. Liabilities are recorded on all temporary differences except in respect of initial recognition of goodwill and in respect of investments in subsidiaries where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that it will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be offset. Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the accounting period.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities, they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority and the Group intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax are recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, except when the tax relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case it is dealt with directly in equity.

2.12 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation because of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation, and it can be measured reliably.

Provisions are measured at the directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the date of Statement of Financial Position.

Where the time value of money is material, provisions are measured at the present value of expenditures expected to be paid in settlement.

2.13 Earnings per share

The Group presents basic (“EPS”) data for Ordinary Shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares, excluding the shares held as treasury shares. 

2.14 Foreign currencies

The Company’s functional and presentational currency is the US dollar. Items included in the separate financial statements of each Group entity are measured in the functional currency of that entity. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of the entity at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the individual transactions. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

F- 15

 

Exchange gains and losses arising are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income within finance income or expenses. The Statement of Comprehensive Income and Statement of Financial Position of foreign entities are translated into US dollars on consolidation at the average rates for the period and the rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period respectively. Exchange gains and losses arising on the translation of the Group’s net investment foreign entities are recognized as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Foreign currency denominated share capital and related share premium and reserve accounts are recorded at the historical exchange rate at the time the shares were issued, or the equity created.

2.15 Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of discounts, value-added tax, other sales related taxes, and after the elimination of sales within the Group.

Revenue comprises development revenues, electrical installations, electrical servicing and maintenance, generator sales, vehicle spec conversion and conversion kits. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of contractual performance obligations.

The Group has a number of different revenue streams and the key components in determining the correct recognition are as follows:

Development revenue, which is revenue generated from development services relating to the building and construction of solar projects, is recognized on a percentage completion basis as the value is accrued by the end user over the life of the contract. The periodic recognition is calculated through weekly project progress reports.

On longer-term power services projects such as large-scale equipment provision and installation, the performance obligation of completing the installation is satisfied over time, and revenue is recognized on a percentage completion basis using an input method. Revenue for stand-alone equipment sales is recognized at the point of passing control of the asset to the customer. Other revenue for small jobs and those completed in a limited timeframe are recognized when the job is complete and accepted by the customer.

Revenue for sale of electric vehicles, kits for electric vehicles and related products is recognized upon delivery to the customer. Where distribution agreements are agreed with external parties to participate in the assembly of vehicles, revenue recognition will be assessed under IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to establish the principal and agent in the relationship between the parties and with the end customer.

Warranties are of short duration and only cover defective workmanship and defective materials. No additional services are committed to which generate a performance obligation.

No adjustment is made for the effects of financing, as the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the goods and services are transferred to the customer and when the customer pays, will be one year or less.

If the revenue recognized for goods and services rendered by the Company exceeds amounts that the Company is entitled to bill the customer, a contract asset is recognized. If amounts billed exceed the revenue recognized for goods and services rendered, a contract liability is recognized.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are expensed as incurred.

2.16 Other income

Other income in relation to government grants, is recognized in the period that the related costs, for which the grants are intended to compensate, are expensed.

F- 16

 

2.17 Employee benefits

Pension

The employer pension contributions are associated with defined contribution schemes. The costs are therefore recognized in the month in which the contribution is incurred, which is consistent with recognition of payroll expenses.

Short-term benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.

A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount because of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be reliably measured.

Short-term compensated absences

A liability for short-term compensated absences, such as holidays, is recognized for the amount the Group may be required to pay because of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the end of the reporting period.

Share-based payments

Shares issued to employees and other participants under the Omnibus Incentive Plan 2017 are recognized over the expected vesting period, using the grant date share price, in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payments.

2.18 Restructuring and other non-recurring costs

Restructuring and other non-recurring costs are by nature one-time incurrences and do not represent the normal trading activities of the business and accordingly are disclosed separately on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in accordance with IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements in order to draw them to the attention of the reader of the financial statements. Restructuring costs are defined in accordance with IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets as being related to sale or termination of a line of business, closure of business locations, changes in management structure, or fundamental reorganizations.

Other non-recurring costs include litigation expenses for former employees, including fees for legal services and provisions under IAS 37 for legal fee dispute resolutions that are probable to result in a quantifiable financial outflow by the Company.

Other non-recurring costs also include legal and professional costs for project review and investigation detailed review and sales campaign for solar projects managed by the ISS joint venture partner.

Other non-recurring costs also include one-off costs resulting from acquisition of Tembo e-LV and subsidiaries and impairment and write-off of nonrecoverable items.

Other non-recurring costs also include provisions in respect of fiscal refunds on prior receivables, which the Company is defending.

F- 17

 

2.19 New standards, amendments and interpretations not yet adopted by the Group

At the date of authorisation of these financial statements the following Standards and Interpretations which have not been applied in these financial statements were in issue but not yet effective:

International Accounting Standards (amendments)	Effective date*
IAS 1 - Amendments regarding the classification of liabilities	1 January 2023
IAS 1, IFRS Practice Statement 2 - Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2	1 January 2023
IAS 1 - Amendments regarding non-current liabilities with covenants	1 January 2024
IAS 8 (amendments) - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors – Definition of Accounting Estimates	1 January 2023
IFRS 16 - Amendments regarding lease liability in a sale and leaseback	1 January 2024
*Years beginning on or after

The Directors do not expect that the adoption of the standards listed above will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group or Company in future periods.

3. Significant accounting judgements and estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are required to make judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies and in making estimates and making assumptions about the future. These estimates could have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying value of assets and liabilities in the future financial periods. The critical judgements that have been made in arriving at the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are discussed below.

3.1 Revenue from contracts with customers – determining the timing of satisfaction of services

As disclosed in Note 2.15 to the Financial Statements the Group concluded that Solar Development revenue and revenue from other long-term projects is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided. The Group determined that the percentage completion basis is the best method in measuring progress because there is a direct relationship between the Group’s effort and the transfer of services to the customer. The judgement used in applying the percentage completion basis affects the amount and timing of revenue from contracts.

3.2 Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment, investments and intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed for impairment only when events indicate the carrying value may be impaired. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or when events or changes to circumstances indicate that it might be impaired.

Impairment assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions. To assess impairment, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time-value of money and risks specific to the related cash-generating unit. Judgement was applied in making estimates and assumptions about the future cash flows, including the appropriateness of discounts rates applied and operating performance (which includes production and sales volumes), as further disclosed in Note 14. These estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty. Therefore, there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will impact these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of assets and/or CGUs.

3.3 Operating profit/(loss)

In preparing the consolidated financial statements of the Group, judgement was applied with respect to those items which are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income as included within operating profit/(loss). Those revenues and expenses which are determined to be specifically related to the on-going operating activities of the business are included within operating profit/(loss). Expenses or charges to earnings which are not related to operating activities, are one-time costs determined to be not representative of the normal trading activities of the business, or that arise from revaluation of assets, are reported below operating profit/(loss).

3.4 Litigation provision

No litigation provision was recorded at June 30, 2023. The provision of $0.5 million for disputed legal success fees related to the Mr. Comberg litigation recorded at June 30, 2021 was estimated by management, making a judgement in conjunction with advice from legal counsel, on the likely outcome of the claim. $0.4 million of this provision was utilized in the year ended June 30, 2022, and the remainder released.

3.5 Capitalization of product development costs

The Group capitalizes costs for product development projects in the EV segment. The capitalization of costs is based on management’s judgement that technological and economic feasibility is confirmed, and all other recognition criteria within IAS 38 can be demonstrated. In determining the amounts to be capitalized, management makes assumptions regarding the expected future cash generation, discount rates to be applied and the expected period of benefits. As of June 30, 2023, the carrying amount of capitalized development costs were $7.8 million (2022: $3.8 million).

3.6 Contingent consideration on disposals

Included within the assessment of recoverable value for impairment purposes of assets held for sale related to the sale of the J.A. Martin ex-solar business, as at June 30, 2022, were estimates of the contingent consideration included within the sale agreement. The contingent consideration receivable 12 months following sale, is based on a multiple of earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of the business. The fair value of contingent consideration of $4.5 million applied a contracted 4.5x multiple to year 1 forecast EBITDA of AUD$2.7 million, less purchase price paid, discounted at 10% to net present value, less purchase price paid. Final settlement of the contingent consideration was paid in August 2023, and the receivable amount and loss on disposal adjusted accordingly.

F- 19

 

3.7 Income taxes

In recognizing income tax assets and liabilities, management makes estimates of the likely outcome of decisions by tax authorities on transactions and events whose treatment for tax purposes is uncertain. Where the outcome of such matters is different, or expected to be different, from previous assessments made by management, a change to the carrying value of the income tax assets and liabilities will be recorded in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying values of income tax assets and liabilities are disclosed separately in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

3.8 Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets for unused tax losses amounting to $4.3 million at June 30, 2023 ( June 30, 2022: $4.1 million; June 30, 2021: $1.9 million) are recognized to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilized. Management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted.

3.9 Exchangeable preference shares, exchangeable notes and Aevitas preference shares

As part of the IPO listing process, VivoPower acquired Aevitas. The instruments previously issued by Aevitas were restructured to become exchangeable into VivoPower shares. The Company considered IAS 32 paragraph 16 in determining the accounting treatment. The Company has determined the instruments to be treated as equity under the “fixed-for-fixed” rule meaning that both the amount of consideration received/receivable and the number of equity instruments to be issued must be fixed for the instrument to be classified as equity. Both elements are satisfied within the instruments.

Whilst the majority of the Aevitas exchangeable preference shares and exchangeable notes were converted into Ordinary Shares in VivoPower in July 2021 a minority of investors in the instruments elected to accept new Aevitas Preference Shares. The Company considered IAS 32 paragraph 16 in determining the accounting treatment, and has determined the new Aevitas Preference Shares instruments should be treated as equity.

3.10 Fair value measurement

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities recorded in the statement of financial position are measured using valuation techniques including discounted cash flow (DCF) models. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value. When the fair values of non-financial assets/CGUs need to be determined, for example in business combinations and for impairment testing purposes, they are measured using valuation techniques including the DCF model.

4 Revenue and segmental information

The Group determines and presents operating segments based on the information that is provided internally to the board of directors of the Company (the "Board"), which is the Group’s chief operating decision maker.

Management analyzes our business in five reportable segments: Critical Power Services, Electric Vehicles, Sustainable Energy Solutions, Solar Development and Corporate Office. Critical Power Services is represented by VivoPower’s wholly owned subsidiary Aevitas. In turn, Aevitas wholly owns Kenshaw Solar Pty Ltd (previously J.A. Martin) (“Aevitas Solar”) and Kenshaw Electrical Pty Limited (“Kenshaw”), both of which operate in Australia with a focus on the design, supply, installation and maintenance of critical power, control and distribution systems, including for solar farms. Electric Vehicles is represented by Tembo e-LV B.V. (“Tembo”), a Netherlands-based specialist battery-electric and off-road vehicle company delivering electric vehicles (“EV”) for mining and other rugged industrial customers globally. Sustainable Energy Solutions (“SES”) is the design, evaluation, sale and implementation of renewable energy infrastructure to customers, both on a standalone basis and in support of Tembo EVs. Solar Development is represented by Caret and comprises 12 solar projects in the United States. Corporate Office is the Company’s corporate functions, including costs to maintain the Nasdaq public company listing, comply with applicable SEC reporting requirements, and related investor relations and is located in the U.K.

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including any revenues and expenses that relate to the transactions with any of the Group’s other components. Operating segments results are reviewed regularly by the Board to assess its performance and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment, and for which discrete financial information is available.

Segment results that are reported to the Board include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated to a segment on a reasonable basis.

The Company recorded a net loss for solar projects in Australia, related primarily to the sale of its 50% interest in the Yoogali Solar Farm on June 1, 2021. The loss on sale of $0.2 million comprised disposal of $0.2 million net book value of intangible assets. Additionally, the Company recognized $0.1 million gain on the disposal of Daisy Hill.

The Company recorded a loss of $7.0 million in respect of its share of discontinued Solar Development projects in the joint venture, Caret, prior to acquisition of the remaining 50% interest by the Company on June 30, 2021.

On June 30, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of the remaining 50% share in Caret. As detailed in Note 12.b, the difference between consideration of $5.4 million, being the fair value of pre-acquisition equity interest held by VivoPower, and fair value of acquired net assets of $13.2 million, resulted in a gain of $7.8 million. Results of operations for the portfolio are reported within the Solar Development segment.

6. Other income

The Australian government’s Jobkeeper allowance helped keep Australian citizens in jobs and supported businesses affected by the significant economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The allowance is included in other income and recognized in the period that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. There are no unfulfilled conditions or other contingencies attaching to these grants. The Group did not benefit directly from any other forms of government assistance. This also includes a previous year deposit which was refunded in March 2023.

In FY 2021, the Board undertook a strategic restructuring of the business to align operations, personnel, and business development activities to focus on a fewer number of areas of activity. Associated with this restructuring was the departure of a number of employees and contractors from the business. The workforce reduction cost represents the total salary, benefit, severance, and contract costs paid in the year or accruing to these individuals in the future for which no services will be rendered to the Company. Professional fees represent legal fees incurred to resolve certain disputes related to some of these separations in both the current and prior year.

Acquisition-related costs of $0.6 million that were not directly attributable to the issue of shares are included within restructuring and other non-recurring costs in the income statement, and in operating activities in the cash flow statement.

Goodwill represents the value of gaining immediate access to an established business in the Electric Vehicles market, including the skilled workforce, which are not separately recognized and do not meet the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset under IAS 38. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Separately recognized intangible assets acquired comprise $1.5 million of customers contracts and $0.4 million of trade names, based on a purchase price allocation performed by management.

Customer contracts are valued in years 1-5 include revenue from acquired customer relationships representing 25% of total revenue, average attrition rate 25% per annum, average EBIT 3.7%, weighted average cost of capital 13.0%. Trade names are valued using a relief from royalty method of the income valuation approach over a 6-year life based on a 5% industry average royalty rate.

The Company recognizes non-controlling interests in an acquired entity at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the acquired entity's identifiable net assets.

The non-controlling interest representing 49% of the ordinary issued share capital, comprising $1.3 million at acquisition, less $0.4 million loss recorded in the profit and loss account between November 5, 2020 and February 2, 2021, total $0.9 million, was acquired by the Company on February 2, 2021, for $2.2 million cash and 15,793 shares in the Company ($0.2 million). The $1.5 million difference between consideration and acquired non-controlling interest was debited directly to equity.

The remediation provision recognized was a present obligation of Tembo e-LV immediately prior to the business combination. The execution of the remediation was not conditional upon it being acquired by the Company.

From the date of acquisition to June 30, 2021, Tembo contributed $1.4 million of revenue and $2.8 million of loss before tax from continuing operations. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the fiscal year 2021, Group revenue from continuing operations would have been $41.1 million and loss before tax from continuing operations would have been $8.3 million.

(b) ISS Joint Venture

On June 30, 2021, the Company purchased the remaining 50% share of ISV from ISS for a consideration of $1, as part of the litigation settlement with the other 50% joint venture owners, plus the $5.4 million fair value of pre-acquisition equity interest held by the Company.

F- 31

 

Fair value of net assets acquired included capitalized project expenses and were recorded at fair value.

The acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase of $7.8 million as a result of the litigation settlement and is recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income within gain/(loss) on Solar Development as set out in Note 5.

Total		17,697		18,269		25,794

The Group conducts impairment tests on the carrying value of goodwill and intangibles annually, or more frequently if there are any indications that goodwill might be impaired. The recoverable amount of the Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”) to which goodwill has been allocated is determined from value in use calculations. The key assumptions in the calculations are the discount rates applied, expected operating margin levels and long-term growth rates. Management estimates discount rates that reflect the current market assessments while margins and growth rates are based upon approved budgets and related projections.

The Group prepares cash flow forecasts using the approved budgets for the coming fiscal year and management projections for the following two years. Cash flows are also projected for subsequent years as management believe that the investment is held for the long term. These budgets and projections reflect management’s view of the expected market conditions and the position of the CGU’s products and services within those markets.

F- 34

 

The CGU represented by Aevitas (being Critical Power Services) was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no additional adjustments to goodwill were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were discount rate based on the weighted average cost of capital of 12% ( June 30, 2022: 11%; June 30, 2021: 10%) and annual growth rate of 3% per annum.

The solar element of the CGU represented by VivoPower Pty Ltd goodwill was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no additional adjustments to goodwill were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were weighted average cost of capital of 11.3% ( June 30, 2022: 11.3%, June 30, 2021: 10.7%), an average annual growth rate in years 2-5 of 60% during the rapid growth phase of the business, with the assumption that an average of 50% of electric light vehicles sold by the Company in fleet sizes over 50 vehicles will be sold with an additional sustainable energy solution.

The CGU represented by Tembo e-LV and subsidiaries was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were discount rate based on the weighted average cost of capital of 12% ( June 30, 2022: 11%) and average annual growth rate of 33% per annum in years 2-5 ( June 30, 2022: 280% per annum in years 1-5). Growth rates reflect commencement of planned series production at volume during the 5 year period, as the product development project is completed for the current variant, to meet customer demand per sales agreements of over 15,000 units with major international distribution partners, including Acces, Bodiz and GHH. No sensitivity analysis is provided as the Company expects no foreseeable changes in the assumptions that would result in impairment of the goodwill.

The CGU represented by Caret solar projects was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no adjustments to capitalized development costs were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were weighted average cost of capital of 12.9% ( June 30, 2022: 11.2%), $4 million free cash flow from project sales in years 1-4 ( June 30, 2022: $2.3 million), $14.4 million development fees from power-to-x partnerships.

Customer relationships, trade names and favorable supply contracts have an average remaining period of amortization of 7 years, 10 years and 10 years respectively. Solar projects and electric vehicle product development costs are incomplete and not generating revenue and therefore are not amortized in FY2023.

Additions for the year comprise $3.7 million electric vehicle product development costs in Tembo and $0.4 million of solar project development costs in Caret. $2.1 million net book value of customer relationship and trade name intangible assets of Aevitas Solar ex-solar business sold to ARA in July 2022, was reclassified out of intangible assets into assets held for sale as at June 30, 2022. The prior year restatement in the year 30 June 2021 relates to the reclassification of deposits originally reported within intangible assets.

16. Investments accounted for using the equity method

In April 2017, the Company entered into a 50% joint venture with an early-stage solar development company, ISS, to develop a diversified portfolio of 38 utility-scale solar projects in 9 different states, representing a total electricity generating capacity of approximately 1.8 gigawatts, through an investment entity called Caret, LLC (the “ISS Joint Venture”).

Under the terms of the ISS Joint Venture, the Company committed to invest $14.1 million in the ISS Joint Venture for its 50% equity interest, after reducing the commitment by $0.8 million in potential brokerage commissions that have not been required and which have been credited towards the Company’s commitment. The $14.1 million commitment was allocated to each of the projects based on monthly capital contributions determined with reference to completion of specific project development milestones under an approved development budget for the ISS Joint Venture. To June 29, 2021, the Company contributed $13.1 million of the $14.1 million commitment to the ISS Joint Venture, leaving a remaining capital commitment at June 30, 2021, of $1.1 million, which was recorded in trade and other payables. 20 projects within the portfolio were discontinued in the year ended June 30, 2021, resulting in a write off of capitalized costs of $7.0 million related to those projects.

The joint venture was accounted for as an investment under the equity method at March 31, 2018. During the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company made the decision to sell its portfolio of solar projects held within the ISS Joint Venture, and the Joint Venture assets were reclassified as assets held for sale. In the year ended June 30, 2020, sale of the entire portfolio was not successful, and the Company commenced a process to take control of the portfolio from the Joint Venture partner, which was expected to result in a slower project realization timeframe. Accordingly, the portion of the investment that was expected to be realized in near term sales within 12 months remained in assets held for sale, whereas the remainder of the portfolio was reclassified back to investments accounted for under the equity method.

On June 30, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 50% of Caret from ISS, for a consideration of $1. Accordingly, the book value of $8.1 million of the investments accounted for using the equity method have been derecognized upon acquisition, and the fair value of 100% of the consolidated capitalized project development costs recorded as an intangible asset upon acquisition, as detailed in Note 12b.

Lease liabilities have decreased by $0.2 million in the year to $2.3 million, following $0.2 million capitalization of a new right-of-use asset in June 2023 in Kenshaw Electrical Pty Ltd, on entry into a new lease of an additional workshop facility in Newcastle, New South Wales, offset by $0.3 million lease payments in the year. Depreciation expense on right-of-use assets and interest expense on associated lease liabilities for the year ended  June 30, 2023 amounting to $0.4 million and $0.2 million respectively, are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Total lease payments for the year ended  June 30, 2023 amounted to $0.5 million ( June 30, 2022: $0.4 million)

Each pre-funded warrant represents the right to purchase one Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The pre-funded warrants were exercised on November 22, 2022.

In a concurrent private placement, the Company agreed to issue to the investor, Series A Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 4,230,770 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $1.30 per share.

¹ Equity instruments held at June 30, 2020 were convertible preference shares and convertible loan notes in Aevitas Group which must convert to shares of VivoPower at $10.20 per share no later than June 30, 2021. The Company classified these instruments as equity under the “fixed-for-fixed” rule meaning that both the amount of consideration received/receivable and the number of equity instruments to be issued is fixed.

There were 2,473,367 convertible preference shares outstanding with a face value of AU$3.00 per share and a value held in reserves of AU$11,059,348 at June 30, 2020, representing their face value plus dividends accrued. Convertible preference shares were subordinated to all creditors of Aevitas Group, ranked equally amongst themselves, and ranked in priority to Ordinary Shares of Aevitas Group.

There were 2,473,367 convertible loan notes outstanding with a face value of AU$7.00 per share and a value held in reserves of AU$25,075,203, representing their face value plus the dividends accrued. The convertible loan notes ranked equally with the unsecured creditors of Aevitas Group.

Dividends or interest were payable quarterly in arrears at a rate of 7% on the capitalized value to December 29, 2016, the date at which they became convertible to VivoPower shares. At maturity, or if a trigger event such as a change of control of Aevitas Group or VivoPower, a listing event, or a disposal of substantially all of the assets of Aevitas Group had occurred, the convertible preference shares and convertible loan notes in Aevitas Group convert to VivoPower Ordinary Shares at a price of $10.20 per share

On August 7, 2020, the Company offered one new Aevitas Preference Share, with an issue price of $10, in exchange for each combined convertible note and convertible preference share, with an issue price of $7 and $3 respectively. Dividends are payable quarterly, in arrears, at a rate of 7%. Of the 2,473,367 holders of combined convertible note and convertible preference shares, 426,528 holders accepted the terms of the new Aevitas Preference Shares and received 426,528 Aevitas Preference Shares (A$4,265,280) on August 31, 2020, in exchange for the combined convertible notes and convertible preference shares previously held. The new Aevitas Preference Shares are subordinated to all creditors of Aevitas Group, rank equally amongst themselves, and rank in priority to Aevitas Group Limited Ordinary Shares for the payment of dividends.

The 426,528 holders which exchanged on August 31, 2020, had earned $26,708 interest on the convertible loan note in the year ended June 20, 2021, up until exchange, and this was paid in full along with $11,447 dividends that accrued over the same pre-exchange period on the convertible preference shares. Post-exchange, $185,480 dividends of the Aevitas Preference Shares were earned in the year ended June 20, 2021, with $121,905 of those paid by June 30, 2021. And the 426,528 Aevitas Preference Shares have a face value of $3,208,922 (A$10 per share), recognized together with the dividends payable.

On June 30, 2021, the remaining 2,005,190 holders of convertible preference shares and convertible loan notes in Aevitas Group, exercised their right to convert the instruments into Ordinary Shares in VivoPower International PLC. The cumulative balance of face value and accrued unpaid interest and dividends outstanding of the convertible preference shares and convertible loan notes at June 30, 2021 of $20.5 million, was redeemed on that date, and VivoPower International PLC recognized the requirement to issue 2,005,190 restricted Ordinary Shares, based on a contracted conversion price of $10.20 per share.

2 During the year ended June 30, 2021, $20.5 million was recognized in equity for the 2,005,190 restricted Ordinary Shares pending issuance at a contracted conversion price of $10.20 per share. The 2,005,190 restricted Ordinary Shares were issued on July 21, 2021.

3 The $0.4 million of transaction costs incurred in the year ended June 30, 2023 (year ended June 30, 2022: $0.1 million; year ended June 30, 2021: $2.8 million) relate primarily to capital raises on Nasdaq.

(a) Financial risk management

The Group’s principal financial instruments are bank balances, cash and medium-term loans. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to manage the Group’s funding and liquidity requirements. The Group also has other financial instruments such as trade receivables and trade payables which arise directly from its operations.

The Group is exposed through its operations to the following financial risks:

● Liquidity risk

● Credit risk

● Foreign currency risk

● Interest rate risk

The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. Policy for managing risks is set by the Chief Executive Officer and is implemented by the Group’s finance department. All risks are managed centrally with tight control of all financial matters.

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group considers that liquidity risk is effectively managed and mitigated. The Group held unrestricted cash resources of $0.6 million at  June 30, 2023 ( June 30, 2022: $1.3m; June 30, 2021: $8.6m). The ratio of current assets to current liabilities at June 30, 2023 is 0.54 ( June 30, 2022: 0.93; June 30, 2021: 1.82).

Following sale of ex-solar J.A. Martin operations on July 1, 2022, the A$2.1 million J.A. Martin debtor finance facility (drawn down at June 30, 2022: nil; June 30, 2021: nil) was cancelled and a new facility with a limit of A$2.5 million and variable interest rate that is currently 7.75% was established by Kenshaw, as well as a trade finance facility of $0.5 million. 

The Group maintains near-term cash flow forecasts that enable it to identify its borrowings requirement so that remedial action can be taken if necessary.

Contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including interest payments, are as follows:

Year Ended June 30, 2023			Less than						More than
(US dollars in thousands)	Total		1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		5 years

(c) Credit risk

The primary risk arises from the Group’s receivables from customers and contract assets. The majority of the Group’s customers are long-standing and have been a customer of the Group for many years. Losses have occurred infrequently. The Group is mainly exposed to credit risks from credit sales, but the Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk and keeps the credit status of customers under review. Credit risks of customers of new customers are reviewed before entering into contracts. The debtor exposure is monitored by Group finance and the local entities review and report their exposure on a monthly basis.

The Group does not consider the exposure to the above risks to be significant and has therefore not presented a sensitivity analysis on the identified risks.

The credit quality of debtors neither past due nor impaired is good. Refer to Note 19 for further analysis on trade receivables.

(d) Foreign currency risk

The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk on sales and purchases that are denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of the Group entities to which they relate, primarily between USD, AUD, EUR and GBP.

The Group’s investments in overseas subsidiaries are not hedged as those currency positions are either USD denominated and/or considered to be long-term in nature.

The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk on the following balances at June 30, 2023:

● Cash and cash equivalents $0.54 million denominated in AUD, $0.02 million in EUR and ($0.03) million in GBP.

● Restricted cash $0.6 million denominated in AUD.

● Trade and other receivables $3.4 million denominated in AUD, $1.0 million in EUR and $2.6 million in GBP.

● Trade and other payables $5.0 million denominated in AUD, $2.0 million in EUR and $2.7 million in GBP.

● Borrowings $2.9 million denominated in AUD and $0.9 million in EUR.

● Provisions $0.7 million denominated in AUD and $1.2 million in GBP.

Of the total shareholder loan of $28.6 million, $27.1 million is denominated in USD and $1.5 million is denominated in AUD.

(e) Interest rate risk

As a result of the related party loan agreement the Group is exposed to interest rate volatility. However, the interest rate is fixed for the medium term, therefore, the risk is largely mitigated for the near future. The Group will continue to monitor the movements in the wider global economy.

F- 51

31. Related party transactions

AWN is not the ultimate controlling party of VivoPower but retains a significant influence. As at June 30, 2023, AWN held a 39.5% equity interest in the Company.

Kevin Chin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of VivoPower, is also Chief Executive Officer of AWN. During the period, a number of services were provided to the Company from AWN and its subsidiaries; the extent of the transactions between the two groups is listed below.

On January 11, 2023, amendments to the related party loan were agreed with AWN:

(i) to defer repayment of principal to commence on April 1, 2025, with repayments over 60 months to March 31, 2030.

(ii) to defer interest payments from October 1, 2023, becoming due and payable on the earlier of a) completion by VivoPower of a debt or equity raise of at least $25 million, and b) October 1, 2024. 

(iii) to extend the increased interest rate and line fee of 10.00% and 2.00% per annum respectively commenced on October 1, 2021 to the earlier of a) March 31, 2025 or b) the date a minimum Prepayment of $1,000,000 is made.

(iv) to extend the initial refinancing fee accruing incrementally at 1.6% per annum from July 1, 2021 and become payable at the earlier of a) $1.0 million prepayment being made or b) April 1, 2025. (v) to defer the repayment date of the previous

fixed facility extension fee of $0.355 million, becoming payable on April 1, 2025. 

(vi) In addition to previously agreed refinancing fees, an additional $0.855 million fixed refinancing fee will accrue immediately and become payable on April 1, 2025.

On June 30, 2023, further amendments to the loan were agreed with AWN:      

(i) to defer interest payments from October 1, 2024 to April 1, 2025, and to replace the conditional requirement to repay accrued interest upon completion by VivoPower of a debt or equity raise of at least $25 million, with the conditional requirement to make repayments of interest and/or principal to meet the mandatory repayment schedule described in sections (ii) and (iii) below following a qualifying liquidity event. 

(ii) upon completion by VivoPower International PLC of a qualifying liquidity event of at least $5.0 million, Aevitas is required to make mandatory prepayment of principal and interest to AWN Holdings in accordance with

the following schedule:

a) proceeds $5 million to $7.5 million - pay 25% of amounts raised;

b) proceeds $7.5 million to $12.5 million - pay $1.875 million plus 45% of amounts raised;

c) proceeds $12.5 million and above - pay $4.125 million plus 25% of amounts raised.

(iii) for the purposes of the mandatory prepayment requirement, a ‘qualifying liquidity event’ excludes direct investments into VivoPower’s subsidiary, Tembo, and debt raised in respect of working capital finance facilities, but includes:

a) equity or debt raise;

b) trade sale of underlying subsidiary or business unit (including, for example, Aevitas and Caret); and

c) loan repayment from Tembo to VivoPower.

(iv) as consideration for the concessions agreed with AWN, VivoPower International PLC committed to issue AWN with 500,000 warrants, with a duration of 12 months, at an exercise price of $0.90 per share.

In December 2021, a short-term loan of $1.1 million (A$1.5 million) was provided from AWN to Aevitas O Holdings Pty Limited at an interest rate of 10.0%, increasing to 12.5% from January 1, 2022. The loan is set to expire on April 1, 2025 (initially set as April 30, 2022, then extended to the earlier of October 1, 2023, then extended on January 11, 2023 to April 1, 2025). The requirement for the loan to expire upon completion by VivoPower International PLC of a debt or equity raise of at least S$25 million was dropped on June 30, 2023. Facility extension fees of A$29,000 (A$40,000) and $43,500 (A$60,000) are payable upon maturity, relating to the two extensions respectively.

Tembo signed a landmark joint venture agreement with Francisco Motors, the pioneering manufacturer of jeepneys in the Philippines. Under the agreement, Tembo will develop and supply EUV electrification kits for a new generation of electric jeepneys. One of the country’s cultural icons, jeepneys are the most common utility vehicle in the Philippines and the main mode of public transportation, accounting for just over 40% of public transportation in the country. There are more than 200,000 jeepneys on the road in the Philippines, of which more than 90% are at least 15 years old and running on second-hand diesel engines. Under the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program, the Philippine Government requires that all jeepneys and other public utility vehicles with at least 15 years of service be replaced with Euro 4-compliant or electric-powered vehicles. This creates a US$10bn+ addressable market for the replacement of the old jeepneys. Francisco Motors and Tembo have already secured their first orders and have commenced work to deliver on those orders. The agreement will also give Tembo access to low-cost assembly in the Philippines.

33. Key management personnel compensation

Key management personnel, which are those roles that have a Group management aspect to them, are included in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.

34. Ultimate controlling party

As at June 30, 2023, AWN held a 39.5% equity interest in the Company. Since June 30, 2021, the Company no longer has an ultimate controlling party.

In prior periods, the ultimate controlling party and the results into which these financials were consolidated was AWN, a company registered in Australia.

Key management personnel, which are those roles that have a Group management aspect to them, are included in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.

35. Prior year adjustments

For the year ended 30 June, 2022, $0.5 million of expenses were erroneously not booked until 2023 that related to services provided in the year end 30 June 2022 for which no accruals had been created. These expenses included $0.4 million professional services but also included $0.1 million equity incentives. The impact was a reduction in the profit and loss of $0.5 million, a $0.4 million increase current liabilities and $0.1 million increase in equity accounts.

For the year ended 30 June 2021, $0.5 million of deposits had been incorrectly classified as intangible assets for which these deposits were refunded in the year ended 30 June 2023. The reclassification resulted in current assets increasing by $0.5 million and an opposite reduction in long term assets with no impact on profit and loss or gross assets.

For the years ended 30 June, 2022 and 30 June, 2021, it was noted that $0.4 million of inventory had incorrectly been classified within other receivables. This has now been corrected with an increase in inventory in both years of $0.4 million and a reduction in other receivables.

[1] On July 29, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering directly to an investor, (i) an aggregate of 2,300,000 ordinary shares (the “Shares”), nominal value $0.012 per share, at an offering price of $1.30 per share and (ii) an aggregate of 1,930,770 pre-funded warrants exercisable for ordinary shares at an offering price of $1.2999 per pre-funded warrant, for gross proceeds of approximately $5.5 million before deducting the placement agent fee and related offering expenses. The pre-funded warrants were sold to the Investor whose purchase of ordinary shares in the Registered Offering would otherwise result in the Investor, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares immediately following the consummation of the Registered Offering, in lieu of ordinary shares. Each pre-funded warrant represents the right to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The pre-funded warrants were exercised on November 22, 2022. In a concurrent private placement, the Company agreed to issue to the investor, Series A Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 4,230,770 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $1.30 per share. Each Series A Warrant will be exercisable on February 2, 2023 and will expire on February 2, 2028. The Series A Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants were offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. During the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company completed a series of capital raises on Nasdaq. A total of 4,091,019 ordinary shares were issued, comprising 3,382,350 ordinary shares issued on October 19, 2020 as an underwritten public offering pursuant to an F-1 registration statement filed with the SEC on October 14, 2020, and 708,669 ordinary shares issued during June 2021, at the market price (an ATM offering), pursuant to an F-3 registration statement filed with the SEC on December 21, 2020. In the year ended June 30, 2022, a further 82,644 ordinary shares were issued under the same registration statement.

[2] During the year ended June 30, 2023, 102,252 shares (year ended June 30, 2022: 682,220; year ended June 30, 2021: 792,126) were issued to employees and directors of the Company and consultants to the Company under the Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

12 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2023

Statement Line Items [Line Items]

Disclosure of the significant accounting policies [text block]

2. Significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of preparation

VivoPower International PLC consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, IFRIC interpretations and the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except when accounting for acquisitions, whereby fair values have been applied.

The preparation of financial statements with adopted IFRS requires the use of critical accounting estimates. It also requires the management to exercise judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where the assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 3.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

As at June 30, 2023, the Company had unrestricted cash totalling $0.6 million, compared to $1.3 million as at  June 30, 2022 and $8.6 million as at June 30, 2021. It also has outstanding debt and borrowing totaling $32.4 million, compared to $28.6 million as at June 30, 2022 and $23.1 million as at June 30, 2021. Most of these borrowings do not fall due for repayment until 1 April 2025 and are thus classified under long-term liabilities.

Over the next twelve months, the Company expects significant growth in revenues and continued EBITDA generation in critical power systems, a material increase in revenue and costs in scaling up the Electric Vehicles business as the operation scales series production of its EUV23 conversion kits to match the demand from its signed partnerships. The Company will also be investing in further capitalized development costs in electric vehicles in preparation for Tembo series production. In addition, it expects to fund selective development of the U.S. solar portfolio to maximize future sales proceeds, as well as development of microgrid, EV charging and battery energy storage capabilities, as part of the scaling up of the SES business unit. The Company will also be investing in property, plant and equipment, particularly in Tembo.

This expected growth implies sizeable funding requirements over FY2024, which the Company is planning to finance through significant equity capital raises, asset-backed financing, debtor financing, working capital optimization with suppliers and customers, and tax relief on R&D expenditure, either at Group or subsidiary levels depending on what is best suited to the Company’s growth needs and optimizing for cost of capital. 

To ensure success of the business, the directors have reviewed additional plans to mitigate any cash flow risk that may arise during the next twelve months. These include:

● Regular re-forecasting process and flexing of opex and capex cost growth according to liquidity needs;

● Phased approach to hiring of personnel to sustain growth of the Tembo business;

● Staging the timing of property, plant and equipment and software capex to match asset-backed financing inflows;

● Obtain Research & Development grants in the U.K., Europe and Australia to help fund investment in electric, solar and battery technologies;

● Careful project planning and commercial structuring of SES projects;

● Possible sale, spin off, or distribution in specie of Caret, LLC ("Caret"), formerly Innovative Solar Ventures I, LLC ("ISV");

● Purchase order financing, debtor financing facilities;

● Staging the timing of equity raises to minimize dilution; and

● Renegotiation of terms on loans and supply chain.

Based on the foregoing expectations of funding needs, and actions prepared and presented by management to the Board of Directors, the Directors consider that these actions can provide sufficient cash to support business operations and meet funding requirements as they become due, despite financial, economic and political uncertainty. If we continue to experience losses and we are not able to raise additional financing to provide the funding to grow the revenue streams of the Company to become profit making, or generate cash through sales of assets, we may not have sufficient liquidity to sustain our operations and to continue as a going concern, accordingly there is a material uncertainty that may cause significant doubt about the going concern nature of the Group. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

All financial information presented in US dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

2.2 Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include those of VivoPower International PLC and all of its subsidiary undertakings.

Subsidiary undertakings are those entities controlled directly or indirectly by the Company. The Company controls an investee when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The results of the subsidiaries acquired are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date of acquisition using the same accounting policies of those of the Group. All business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is the fair value at the acquisition date of the assets transferred and the liabilities incurred by the Group and includes the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are recognized in the income statement as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair value at the acquisition date.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with those used by other members of the Group.

All intra-group balances and transactions, including any unrealized income and expense arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in full in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealized gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

2.3 Business combination

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the:

● fair values of the assets transferred

● liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired businesses

● equity interests issued by the Company

● fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, and

● fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquired entity’s net identifiable assets. Acquisition-related costs are expenses as incurred.

The excess of the:

● consideration transferred

● amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity, and

● acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquired entity

over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the business acquired, the difference is recognized directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from such remeasurement are recognized in profit or loss.

2.4 Intangible assets

All intangible assets, except goodwill, are stated at fair value less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized and is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Any gain on a bargain purchase is recognized in profit or loss immediately.

Goodwill

Goodwill arose on the effective acquisition of VivoPower Pty Ltd, Aevitas O Holdings Limited (“Aevitas”) and Tembo e-LV B.V. Goodwill is reviewed annually to test for impairment.

Negative goodwill arose on the acquisition of the remaining 50% share of ISV from Innovative Solar Systems, LC ("ISS"), constituting a bargain purchase. The gain was immediately recognized in the profit and loss during the year ended June 30, 2021.

Other intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired through a business combination are initially measured at fair value and then amortized over their useful economic lives. Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

Development expenditure includes the product development project for ruggedized electric vehicles in Tembo, pre-series-production expenditure on developing vehicle specifications and production processes. Capitalized costs include primarily internal payroll costs, external consultants and computer software.

Development expenditure on U.S. solar projects includes securing land rights, completing feasibility studies, negotiating power purchase agreements, and other costs incurred to prepare project sales for Notice to Proceed with construction and hence sale to a partner as a shovel ready project.

For both electric vehicles product development project, and U.S. solar development projects, it is the Company’s intention to complete the projects. It expects to obtain adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the projects, and management consider that it is probable for the future economic benefits attributable to the development expenditure to flow to the entity; and that the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Accordingly, the development expenditure is recognized under IAS 38 – Intangible Assets as an intangible asset.

All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, and research costs, are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis to write down the assets over their useful economic lives at the following rates:

● Development expenditure - 5 to 10 years

● Customer relationships – 5 to 10 years

● Trade names – 15 to 25 years

● Favorable supply contracts – 15 years

● Other – 5 years

2.5 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price and the costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into use.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis so as to write down the assets to their estimated residual value over their useful economic lives at the following rates:

● Computer equipment - 3 years

● Fixtures and fittings - 3 to 20 years

● Motor vehicles - 5 years

● Plant and equipment – 3.5 to 10 years

● Right-of-use assets – remaining term of lease

2.6 Assets classified as held for sale and discontinued operations

Assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at the lower of their carrying value and fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognized for any subsequent write-down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell.

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately in the statement of profit or loss.

2.7 Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, in accordance with IAS 2 – Inventories. The cost includes all direct and indirect variable production expenses, plus fixed expenses based on the normal capacity of each production facility. The net realizable value of inventories intended to be sold corresponds to their selling price, as estimated based on market conditions and any relevant external information sources, less the estimated costs necessary to complete the sale.

2.8 Leases

The Group leases offices, workshops, motor vehicles, and equipment for fixed periods of 2 months to 8 years but may have extension options. Extension options are not recognized by the Group in the determination of lease liabilities unless renewals are reasonably certain.

Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Group allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices. However, for leases of real estate for which the Group is a lessee, it has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components and instead accounts for these as a single lease component.

Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants other than the security interests in the leased assets that are held by the lessor. Leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.

Leases are recognized as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis, with lease payments discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate is used. The Group presents lease liabilities in loans and borrowings in the Statement of Financial Position.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Right-of-use assets are presented in property, plant and equipment and depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.

2.9 Impairment of non-financial assets

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purposes of impairment testing. The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (‘CGU’) to which the goodwill relates is tested annually for impairment or when events or changes to circumstances indicate that it might be impaired.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment, investments and intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed for impairment only when events indicate the carrying value may be impaired.

In an impairment test the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit or asset is estimated in order to determine the existence or extent of any impairment loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and the value in use to the Group. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount. In determining a cash-generating unit’s or asset’s value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time-value of money and risks specific to the cash-generating unit or asset that have not already been included in the estimate of future cash flows. All impairment losses are recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In the case of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. These impairment losses are reversed if there has been any change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent so that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

2.10 Financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized in the Group’s Statement of Financial Position when the Group becomes a party to the contracted provision of the instrument. The following policies for financial instruments have been applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

● those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss; and,

● those to be measured at amortized cost.

The classification depends on the business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Financial assets are classified as at amortized cost only if both of the following criteria are met:

● the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows; and,

● the contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

● in the principal market for the asset or liability; or,

● in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

Level 1 - quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3 - valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of preparation of the Statement of Cash Flow, cash and cash equivalents includes cash at bank and in hand.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash are cash and cash equivalents whose availability for use within the Group is subject to certain restrictions by third parties.

Bank borrowings

Interest-bearing bank loans are recorded at the proceeds received. Direct issue costs paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognized over the term of the loan on a straight-line basis. The initial payment is taken to the Statement of Financial Position and then amortized over the full-length of the facility.

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for the expected future issue of credit notes and for non-recoverability due to credit risk. The Group applies the IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables and contract assets. To measure expected credit losses, trade receivables and contract assets have been grouped based on shared risk characteristics.

Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are non-interest bearing and are stated at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Share capital

Ordinary Shares, nominal value $0.012 per share (the "Ordinary Shares") are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of Ordinary Shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

Repurchase of share capital (treasury shares)

When share capital recognized as equity is repurchased as equity by the Company the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, net of any tax effects, is recognized as a deduction from equity, and excluded from the number of shares in issue when calculating earnings per share.

2.11 Taxation

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax.

Current tax is recognized based on the amounts expected to be paid or recovered under the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is provided on temporary timing differences that arise between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their corresponding tax values. Liabilities are recorded on all temporary differences except in respect of initial recognition of goodwill and in respect of investments in subsidiaries where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that it will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be offset. Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the accounting period.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities, they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority and the Group intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax are recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, except when the tax relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case it is dealt with directly in equity.

2.12 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation because of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation, and it can be measured reliably.

Provisions are measured at the directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the date of Statement of Financial Position.

Where the time value of money is material, provisions are measured at the present value of expenditures expected to be paid in settlement.

2.13 Earnings per share

The Group presents basic (“EPS”) data for Ordinary Shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares, excluding the shares held as treasury shares. 

2.14 Foreign currencies

The Company’s functional and presentational currency is the US dollar. Items included in the separate financial statements of each Group entity are measured in the functional currency of that entity. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of the entity at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the individual transactions. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

Exchange gains and losses arising are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income within finance income or expenses. The Statement of Comprehensive Income and Statement of Financial Position of foreign entities are translated into US dollars on consolidation at the average rates for the period and the rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period respectively. Exchange gains and losses arising on the translation of the Group’s net investment foreign entities are recognized as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Foreign currency denominated share capital and related share premium and reserve accounts are recorded at the historical exchange rate at the time the shares were issued, or the equity created.

2.15 Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of discounts, value-added tax, other sales related taxes, and after the elimination of sales within the Group.

Revenue comprises development revenues, electrical installations, electrical servicing and maintenance, generator sales, vehicle spec conversion and conversion kits. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of contractual performance obligations.

The Group has a number of different revenue streams and the key components in determining the correct recognition are as follows:

Development revenue, which is revenue generated from development services relating to the building and construction of solar projects, is recognized on a percentage completion basis as the value is accrued by the end user over the life of the contract. The periodic recognition is calculated through weekly project progress reports.

On longer-term power services projects such as large-scale equipment provision and installation, the performance obligation of completing the installation is satisfied over time, and revenue is recognized on a percentage completion basis using an input method. Revenue for stand-alone equipment sales is recognized at the point of passing control of the asset to the customer. Other revenue for small jobs and those completed in a limited timeframe are recognized when the job is complete and accepted by the customer.

Revenue for sale of electric vehicles, kits for electric vehicles and related products is recognized upon delivery to the customer. Where distribution agreements are agreed with external parties to participate in the assembly of vehicles, revenue recognition will be assessed under IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to establish the principal and agent in the relationship between the parties and with the end customer.

Warranties are of short duration and only cover defective workmanship and defective materials. No additional services are committed to which generate a performance obligation.

No adjustment is made for the effects of financing, as the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the goods and services are transferred to the customer and when the customer pays, will be one year or less.

If the revenue recognized for goods and services rendered by the Company exceeds amounts that the Company is entitled to bill the customer, a contract asset is recognized. If amounts billed exceed the revenue recognized for goods and services rendered, a contract liability is recognized.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are expensed as incurred.

2.16 Other income

Other income in relation to government grants, is recognized in the period that the related costs, for which the grants are intended to compensate, are expensed.

2.17 Employee benefits

Pension

The employer pension contributions are associated with defined contribution schemes. The costs are therefore recognized in the month in which the contribution is incurred, which is consistent with recognition of payroll expenses.

Short-term benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.

A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount because of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be reliably measured.

Short-term compensated absences

A liability for short-term compensated absences, such as holidays, is recognized for the amount the Group may be required to pay because of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the end of the reporting period.

Share-based payments

Shares issued to employees and other participants under the Omnibus Incentive Plan 2017 are recognized over the expected vesting period, using the grant date share price, in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payments.

2.18 Restructuring and other non-recurring costs

Restructuring and other non-recurring costs are by nature one-time incurrences and do not represent the normal trading activities of the business and accordingly are disclosed separately on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in accordance with IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements in order to draw them to the attention of the reader of the financial statements. Restructuring costs are defined in accordance with IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets as being related to sale or termination of a line of business, closure of business locations, changes in management structure, or fundamental reorganizations.

Other non-recurring costs include litigation expenses for former employees, including fees for legal services and provisions under IAS 37 for legal fee dispute resolutions that are probable to result in a quantifiable financial outflow by the Company.

Other non-recurring costs also include legal and professional costs for project review and investigation detailed review and sales campaign for solar projects managed by the ISS joint venture partner.

Other non-recurring costs also include one-off costs resulting from acquisition of Tembo e-LV and subsidiaries and impairment and write-off of nonrecoverable items.

Other non-recurring costs also include provisions in respect of fiscal refunds on prior receivables, which the Company is defending.

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates

12 Months Ended

Statement Line Items [Line Items]

Disclosure of accounting judgements and estimates [text block]

3. Significant accounting judgements and estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are required to make judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies and in making estimates and making assumptions about the future. These estimates could have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying value of assets and liabilities in the future financial periods. The critical judgements that have been made in arriving at the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are discussed below.

3.1 Revenue from contracts with customers – determining the timing of satisfaction of services

As disclosed in Note 2.15 to the Financial Statements the Group concluded that Solar Development revenue and revenue from other long-term projects is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided. The Group determined that the percentage completion basis is the best method in measuring progress because there is a direct relationship between the Group’s effort and the transfer of services to the customer. The judgement used in applying the percentage completion basis affects the amount and timing of revenue from contracts.

3.2 Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment, investments and intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed for impairment only when events indicate the carrying value may be impaired. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or when events or changes to circumstances indicate that it might be impaired.

Impairment assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions. To assess impairment, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time-value of money and risks specific to the related cash-generating unit. Judgement was applied in making estimates and assumptions about the future cash flows, including the appropriateness of discounts rates applied and operating performance (which includes production and sales volumes), as further disclosed in Note 14. These estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty. Therefore, there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will impact these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of assets and/or CGUs.

3.3 Operating profit/(loss)

In preparing the consolidated financial statements of the Group, judgement was applied with respect to those items which are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income as included within operating profit/(loss). Those revenues and expenses which are determined to be specifically related to the on-going operating activities of the business are included within operating profit/(loss). Expenses or charges to earnings which are not related to operating activities, are one-time costs determined to be not representative of the normal trading activities of the business, or that arise from revaluation of assets, are reported below operating profit/(loss).

3.4 Litigation provision

No litigation provision was recorded at June 30, 2023. The provision of $0.5 million for disputed legal success fees related to the Mr. Comberg litigation recorded at June 30, 2021 was estimated by management, making a judgement in conjunction with advice from legal counsel, on the likely outcome of the claim. $0.4 million of this provision was utilized in the year ended June 30, 2022, and the remainder released.

3.5 Capitalization of product development costs

The Group capitalizes costs for product development projects in the EV segment. The capitalization of costs is based on management’s judgement that technological and economic feasibility is confirmed, and all other recognition criteria within IAS 38 can be demonstrated. In determining the amounts to be capitalized, management makes assumptions regarding the expected future cash generation, discount rates to be applied and the expected period of benefits. As of June 30, 2023, the carrying amount of capitalized development costs were $7.8 million (2022: $3.8 million).

3.6 Contingent consideration on disposals

Included within the assessment of recoverable value for impairment purposes of assets held for sale related to the sale of the J.A. Martin ex-solar business, as at June 30, 2022, were estimates of the contingent consideration included within the sale agreement. The contingent consideration receivable 12 months following sale, is based on a multiple of earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of the business. The fair value of contingent consideration of $4.5 million applied a contracted 4.5x multiple to year 1 forecast EBITDA of AUD$2.7 million, less purchase price paid, discounted at 10% to net present value, less purchase price paid. Final settlement of the contingent consideration was paid in August 2023, and the receivable amount and loss on disposal adjusted accordingly.

3.7 Income taxes

In recognizing income tax assets and liabilities, management makes estimates of the likely outcome of decisions by tax authorities on transactions and events whose treatment for tax purposes is uncertain. Where the outcome of such matters is different, or expected to be different, from previous assessments made by management, a change to the carrying value of the income tax assets and liabilities will be recorded in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying values of income tax assets and liabilities are disclosed separately in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

3.8 Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets for unused tax losses amounting to $4.3 million at June 30, 2023 ( June 30, 2022: $4.1 million; June 30, 2021: $1.9 million) are recognized to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilized. Management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted.

3.9 Exchangeable preference shares, exchangeable notes and Aevitas preference shares

As part of the IPO listing process, VivoPower acquired Aevitas. The instruments previously issued by Aevitas were restructured to become exchangeable into VivoPower shares. The Company considered IAS 32 paragraph 16 in determining the accounting treatment. The Company has determined the instruments to be treated as equity under the “fixed-for-fixed” rule meaning that both the amount of consideration received/receivable and the number of equity instruments to be issued must be fixed for the instrument to be classified as equity. Both elements are satisfied within the instruments.

Whilst the majority of the Aevitas exchangeable preference shares and exchangeable notes were converted into Ordinary Shares in VivoPower in July 2021 a minority of investors in the instruments elected to accept new Aevitas Preference Shares. The Company considered IAS 32 paragraph 16 in determining the accounting treatment, and has determined the new Aevitas Preference Shares instruments should be treated as equity.

3.10 Fair value measurement

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities recorded in the statement of financial position are measured using valuation techniques including discounted cash flow (DCF) models. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value. When the fair values of non-financial assets/CGUs need to be determined, for example in business combinations and for impairment testing purposes, they are measured using valuation techniques including the DCF model.

4 Revenue and segmental information

The Group determines and presents operating segments based on the information that is provided internally to the board of directors of the Company (the "Board"), which is the Group’s chief operating decision maker.

Management analyzes our business in five reportable segments: Critical Power Services, Electric Vehicles, Sustainable Energy Solutions, Solar Development and Corporate Office. Critical Power Services is represented by VivoPower’s wholly owned subsidiary Aevitas. In turn, Aevitas wholly owns Kenshaw Solar Pty Ltd (previously J.A. Martin) (“Aevitas Solar”) and Kenshaw Electrical Pty Limited (“Kenshaw”), both of which operate in Australia with a focus on the design, supply, installation and maintenance of critical power, control and distribution systems, including for solar farms. Electric Vehicles is represented by Tembo e-LV B.V. (“Tembo”), a Netherlands-based specialist battery-electric and off-road vehicle company delivering electric vehicles (“EV”) for mining and other rugged industrial customers globally. Sustainable Energy Solutions (“SES”) is the design, evaluation, sale and implementation of renewable energy infrastructure to customers, both on a standalone basis and in support of Tembo EVs. Solar Development is represented by Caret and comprises 12 solar projects in the United States. Corporate Office is the Company’s corporate functions, including costs to maintain the Nasdaq public company listing, comply with applicable SEC reporting requirements, and related investor relations and is located in the U.K.

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including any revenues and expenses that relate to the transactions with any of the Group’s other components. Operating segments results are reviewed regularly by the Board to assess its performance and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment, and for which discrete financial information is available.

Segment results that are reported to the Board include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated to a segment on a reasonable basis.

The Company recorded a net loss for solar projects in Australia, related primarily to the sale of its 50% interest in the Yoogali Solar Farm on June 1, 2021. The loss on sale of $0.2 million comprised disposal of $0.2 million net book value of intangible assets. Additionally, the Company recognized $0.1 million gain on the disposal of Daisy Hill.

The Company recorded a loss of $7.0 million in respect of its share of discontinued Solar Development projects in the joint venture, Caret, prior to acquisition of the remaining 50% interest by the Company on June 30, 2021.

On June 30, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of the remaining 50% share in Caret. As detailed in Note 12.b, the difference between consideration of $5.4 million, being the fair value of pre-acquisition equity interest held by VivoPower, and fair value of acquired net assets of $13.2 million, resulted in a gain of $7.8 million. Results of operations for the portfolio are reported within the Solar Development segment.

In the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred non-recurring costs related to a provision in respect of fiscal refunds on prior receivables, which the Company is defending of $1.8 million, restructuring activities of $0.2 million and provision for inventory obsolescence and write-off of bad debts of $0.4 million, offset by $0.4 million release of remediation provision.

In the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred non-recurring costs related to restructuring activities of $0.2 million and one-off remediation expenses of $0.4 million, offset by $0.1 million release of unutilized provision related to the Comberg Claims.

In the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company also incurred non-recurring costs for legal, accounting, tax advisory and due diligence costs of $0.6 million related to the acquisition of Tembo e-LV in November 2020.

Restructuring and other non-recurring costs by nature are one-time incurrences, and therefore, do not represent normal trading activities of the business. These costs are disclosed separately in order to draw them to the attention of the reader of the financial information and enable comparability in future periods.

In FY 2021, the Board undertook a strategic restructuring of the business to align operations, personnel, and business development activities to focus on a fewer number of areas of activity. Associated with this restructuring was the departure of a number of employees and contractors from the business. The workforce reduction cost represents the total salary, benefit, severance, and contract costs paid in the year or accruing to these individuals in the future for which no services will be rendered to the Company. Professional fees represent legal fees incurred to resolve certain disputes related to some of these separations in both the current and prior year.

Acquisition-related costs of $0.6 million that were not directly attributable to the issue of shares are included within restructuring and other non-recurring costs in the income statement, and in operating activities in the cash flow statement.

Goodwill represents the value of gaining immediate access to an established business in the Electric Vehicles market, including the skilled workforce, which are not separately recognized and do not meet the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset under IAS 38. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Separately recognized intangible assets acquired comprise $1.5 million of customers contracts and $0.4 million of trade names, based on a purchase price allocation performed by management.

Customer contracts are valued in years 1-5 include revenue from acquired customer relationships representing 25% of total revenue, average attrition rate 25% per annum, average EBIT 3.7%, weighted average cost of capital 13.0%. Trade names are valued using a relief from royalty method of the income valuation approach over a 6-year life based on a 5% industry average royalty rate.

The Company recognizes non-controlling interests in an acquired entity at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the acquired entity's identifiable net assets.

The non-controlling interest representing 49% of the ordinary issued share capital, comprising $1.3 million at acquisition, less $0.4 million loss recorded in the profit and loss account between November 5, 2020 and February 2, 2021, total $0.9 million, was acquired by the Company on February 2, 2021, for $2.2 million cash and 15,793 shares in the Company ($0.2 million). The $1.5 million difference between consideration and acquired non-controlling interest was debited directly to equity.

The remediation provision recognized was a present obligation of Tembo e-LV immediately prior to the business combination. The execution of the remediation was not conditional upon it being acquired by the Company.

From the date of acquisition to June 30, 2021, Tembo contributed $1.4 million of revenue and $2.8 million of loss before tax from continuing operations. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the fiscal year 2021, Group revenue from continuing operations would have been $41.1 million and loss before tax from continuing operations would have been $8.3 million.

(b) ISS Joint Venture

On June 30, 2021, the Company purchased the remaining 50% share of ISV from ISS for a consideration of $1, as part of the litigation settlement with the other 50% joint venture owners, plus the $5.4 million fair value of pre-acquisition equity interest held by the Company.

Fair value of net assets acquired included capitalized project expenses and were recorded at fair value.

The acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase of $7.8 million as a result of the litigation settlement and is recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income within gain/(loss) on Solar Development as set out in Note 5.

Total		17,697		18,269		25,794

The Group conducts impairment tests on the carrying value of goodwill and intangibles annually, or more frequently if there are any indications that goodwill might be impaired. The recoverable amount of the Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”) to which goodwill has been allocated is determined from value in use calculations. The key assumptions in the calculations are the discount rates applied, expected operating margin levels and long-term growth rates. Management estimates discount rates that reflect the current market assessments while margins and growth rates are based upon approved budgets and related projections.

The Group prepares cash flow forecasts using the approved budgets for the coming fiscal year and management projections for the following two years. Cash flows are also projected for subsequent years as management believe that the investment is held for the long term. These budgets and projections reflect management’s view of the expected market conditions and the position of the CGU’s products and services within those markets.

The CGU represented by Aevitas (being Critical Power Services) was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no additional adjustments to goodwill were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were discount rate based on the weighted average cost of capital of 12% ( June 30, 2022: 11%; June 30, 2021: 10%) and annual growth rate of 3% per annum.

The solar element of the CGU represented by VivoPower Pty Ltd goodwill was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no additional adjustments to goodwill were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were weighted average cost of capital of 11.3% ( June 30, 2022: 11.3%, June 30, 2021: 10.7%), an average annual growth rate in years 2-5 of 60% during the rapid growth phase of the business, with the assumption that an average of 50% of electric light vehicles sold by the Company in fleet sizes over 50 vehicles will be sold with an additional sustainable energy solution.

The CGU represented by Tembo e-LV and subsidiaries was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were discount rate based on the weighted average cost of capital of 12% ( June 30, 2022: 11%) and average annual growth rate of 33% per annum in years 2-5 ( June 30, 2022: 280% per annum in years 1-5). Growth rates reflect commencement of planned series production at volume during the 5 year period, as the product development project is completed for the current variant, to meet customer demand per sales agreements of over 15,000 units with major international distribution partners, including Acces, Bodiz and GHH. No sensitivity analysis is provided as the Company expects no foreseeable changes in the assumptions that would result in impairment of the goodwill.

The CGU represented by Caret solar projects was assessed to have a value in excess of its carrying value and hence no adjustments to capitalized development costs were considered necessary. Key assumptions used in the assessment of impairment were weighted average cost of capital of 12.9% ( June 30, 2022: 11.2%), $4 million free cash flow from project sales in years 1-4 ( June 30, 2022: $2.3 million), $14.4 million development fees from power-to-x partnerships.

Note 16 - Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Method

16. Investments accounted for using the equity method

In April 2017, the Company entered into a 50% joint venture with an early-stage solar development company, ISS, to develop a diversified portfolio of 38 utility-scale solar projects in 9 different states, representing a total electricity generating capacity of approximately 1.8 gigawatts, through an investment entity called Caret, LLC (the “ISS Joint Venture”).

Under the terms of the ISS Joint Venture, the Company committed to invest $14.1 million in the ISS Joint Venture for its 50% equity interest, after reducing the commitment by $0.8 million in potential brokerage commissions that have not been required and which have been credited towards the Company’s commitment. The $14.1 million commitment was allocated to each of the projects based on monthly capital contributions determined with reference to completion of specific project development milestones under an approved development budget for the ISS Joint Venture. To June 29, 2021, the Company contributed $13.1 million of the $14.1 million commitment to the ISS Joint Venture, leaving a remaining capital commitment at June 30, 2021, of $1.1 million, which was recorded in trade and other payables. 20 projects within the portfolio were discontinued in the year ended June 30, 2021, resulting in a write off of capitalized costs of $7.0 million related to those projects.

The joint venture was accounted for as an investment under the equity method at March 31, 2018. During the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company made the decision to sell its portfolio of solar projects held within the ISS Joint Venture, and the Joint Venture assets were reclassified as assets held for sale. In the year ended June 30, 2020, sale of the entire portfolio was not successful, and the Company commenced a process to take control of the portfolio from the Joint Venture partner, which was expected to result in a slower project realization timeframe. Accordingly, the portion of the investment that was expected to be realized in near term sales within 12 months remained in assets held for sale, whereas the remainder of the portfolio was reclassified back to investments accounted for under the equity method.

On June 30, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 50% of Caret from ISS, for a consideration of $1. Accordingly, the book value of $8.1 million of the investments accounted for using the equity method have been derecognized upon acquisition, and the fair value of 100% of the consolidated capitalized project development costs recorded as an intangible asset upon acquisition, as detailed in Note 12b.

(a) Financial risk management

The Group’s principal financial instruments are bank balances, cash and medium-term loans. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to manage the Group’s funding and liquidity requirements. The Group also has other financial instruments such as trade receivables and trade payables which arise directly from its operations.

The Group is exposed through its operations to the following financial risks:

● Liquidity risk

● Credit risk

● Foreign currency risk

● Interest rate risk

The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. Policy for managing risks is set by the Chief Executive Officer and is implemented by the Group’s finance department. All risks are managed centrally with tight control of all financial matters.

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group considers that liquidity risk is effectively managed and mitigated. The Group held unrestricted cash resources of $0.6 million at  June 30, 2023 ( June 30, 2022: $1.3m; June 30, 2021: $8.6m). The ratio of current assets to current liabilities at June 30, 2023 is 0.54 ( June 30, 2022: 0.93; June 30, 2021: 1.82).

Following sale of ex-solar J.A. Martin operations on July 1, 2022, the A$2.1 million J.A. Martin debtor finance facility (drawn down at June 30, 2022: nil; June 30, 2021: nil) was cancelled and a new facility with a limit of A$2.5 million and variable interest rate that is currently 7.75% was established by Kenshaw, as well as a trade finance facility of $0.5 million. 

The Group maintains near-term cash flow forecasts that enable it to identify its borrowings requirement so that remedial action can be taken if necessary.

(c) Credit risk

The primary risk arises from the Group’s receivables from customers and contract assets. The majority of the Group’s customers are long-standing and have been a customer of the Group for many years. Losses have occurred infrequently. The Group is mainly exposed to credit risks from credit sales, but the Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk and keeps the credit status of customers under review. Credit risks of customers of new customers are reviewed before entering into contracts. The debtor exposure is monitored by Group finance and the local entities review and report their exposure on a monthly basis.

The Group does not consider the exposure to the above risks to be significant and has therefore not presented a sensitivity analysis on the identified risks.

The credit quality of debtors neither past due nor impaired is good. Refer to Note 19 for further analysis on trade receivables.

(d) Foreign currency risk

The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk on sales and purchases that are denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of the Group entities to which they relate, primarily between USD, AUD, EUR and GBP.

The Group’s investments in overseas subsidiaries are not hedged as those currency positions are either USD denominated and/or considered to be long-term in nature.

The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk on the following balances at June 30, 2023:

● Cash and cash equivalents $0.54 million denominated in AUD, $0.02 million in EUR and ($0.03) million in GBP.

● Restricted cash $0.6 million denominated in AUD.

● Trade and other receivables $3.4 million denominated in AUD, $1.0 million in EUR and $2.6 million in GBP.

● Trade and other payables $5.0 million denominated in AUD, $2.0 million in EUR and $2.7 million in GBP.

● Borrowings $2.9 million denominated in AUD and $0.9 million in EUR.

● Provisions $0.7 million denominated in AUD and $1.2 million in GBP.

Of the total shareholder loan of $28.6 million, $27.1 million is denominated in USD and $1.5 million is denominated in AUD.

(e) Interest rate risk

As a result of the related party loan agreement the Group is exposed to interest rate volatility. However, the interest rate is fixed for the medium term, therefore, the risk is largely mitigated for the near future. The Group will continue to monitor the movements in the wider global economy.

An extraordinary general meeting of shareholders was held on July 6, 2023, which included a consideration and approval, in accordance with section 618 of the Companies Act 2006, that the Company (acting by its Board) be and is hereby authorised to consolidate, or consolidate and divide, all or such number of its existing Ordinary Shares of $0.012 each into such reduced number of Ordinary Shares of such increased nominal value as the Company’s Board may at any time prior to 23 October 2023 determine is appropriate in order to ensure that the Company remains compliant with the applicable rules of Nasdaq concerning the minimum trading price of the Company’s shares.

Tembo signed a landmark joint venture agreement with Francisco Motors, the pioneering manufacturer of jeepneys in the Philippines. Under the agreement, Tembo will develop and supply EUV electrification kits for a new generation of electric jeepneys. One of the country’s cultural icons, jeepneys are the most common utility vehicle in the Philippines and the main mode of public transportation, accounting for just over 40% of public transportation in the country. There are more than 200,000 jeepneys on the road in the Philippines, of which more than 90% are at least 15 years old and running on second-hand diesel engines. Under the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program, the Philippine Government requires that all jeepneys and other public utility vehicles with at least 15 years of service be replaced with Euro 4-compliant or electric-powered vehicles. This creates a US$10bn+ addressable market for the replacement of the old jeepneys. Francisco Motors and Tembo have already secured their first orders and have commenced work to deliver on those orders. The agreement will also give Tembo access to low-cost assembly in the Philippines.

Description of nature of accounting errors in prior periods [text block]

35. Prior year adjustments

For the year ended 30 June, 2022, $0.5 million of expenses were erroneously not booked until 2023 that related to services provided in the year end 30 June 2022 for which no accruals had been created. These expenses included $0.4 million professional services but also included $0.1 million equity incentives. The impact was a reduction in the profit and loss of $0.5 million, a $0.4 million increase current liabilities and $0.1 million increase in equity accounts.

For the year ended 30 June 2021, $0.5 million of deposits had been incorrectly classified as intangible assets for which these deposits were refunded in the year ended 30 June 2023. The reclassification resulted in current assets increasing by $0.5 million and an opposite reduction in long term assets with no impact on profit and loss or gross assets.

For the years ended 30 June, 2022 and 30 June, 2021, it was noted that $0.4 million of inventory had incorrectly been classified within other receivables. This has now been corrected with an increase in inventory in both years of $0.4 million and a reduction in other receivables.

At maturity, or if a trigger event such as a change of control of Aevitas Group or VivoPower, a listing event, or a disposal of substantially all of the assets of Aevitas Group had occurred, the convertible preference shares and convertible loan notes in Aevitas Group convert to VivoPower ordinary shares at a price of US$10.20 per share On August 7, 2020, the Company offered one new Aevitas Preference Share, with an issue price of $10, in exchange for each combined convertible note and convertible preference share, with an issue price of $7 and $3 respectively. Dividends are payable quarterly, in arrears, at a rate of 7%. Of the 2,473,367 holders of combined convertible note and convertible preference shares, 426,528 holders accepted the terms of the new Aevitas Preference Shares and received 426,528 Aevitas Preference Shares (A$4,265,280) on August 31, 2020, in exchange for the combined convertible notes and convertible preference shares previously held. The new Aevitas Preference Shares are subordinated to all creditors of Aevitas Group, rank equally amongst themselves, and rank in priority to Aevitas Group Limited ordinary shares for the payment of dividends. The 426,528 holders which exchanged on August 31, 2020, had earned $26,708 interest on the convertible loan note in the year ended June 20, 2021, up until exchange, and this was paid in full along with $11,447 dividends that accrued over the same pre-exchange period on the convertible preference shares. Post-exchange, $185,480 dividends of the Aevitas Preference Shares were earned in the year ended June 20, 2021, with $121,905 of those paid by June 30, 2021. And the 426,528 Aevitas Preference Shares have a face value of $3,208,922 (A$10 per share), recognized together with the dividends payable. On June 30, 2021, the remaining 2,005,190 holders of convertible preference shares and convertible loan notes in Aevitas Group Limited (“Aevitas Group”), exercised their right to convert the instruments into ordinary shares in VivoPower International PLC. The cumulative balance of face value and accrued unpaid interest and dividends outstanding of the convertible preference shares and convertible loan notes at June 30, 2021 of $20.5 million, was redeemed on that date, and VivoPower International PLC recognized the requirement to issue 2,005,190 restricted ordinary shares, based on a contracted conversion price of $10.20 per share.
