The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the audited financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 2.7.2 Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity management implies maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities.

The Company’s primary cash requirements are for operating expenses and purchases of fixed assets. The Company mainly finances its working capital requirements from cash generated from operation and proceeds from bank borrowings and finance leases.

The Company’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure it maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents and an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and long term.

At the reporting date, the contractual undiscounted cash flows of the Company’s current financial liabilities approximate their respective carrying amounts due to their short maturities.

2.7.3 Capital risk management

The Company’s objectives on managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and support the sustainable growth of the Company in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to enhance shareholders’ value in the long term.

F-10

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return of capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

In the opinion of the directors of the Company, the Company’s capital risk is low.

2.7.4 Impact of COVID-19

The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak and the measures taken to contain the spread of the pandemic have created a high level of uncertainty to global economic prospects and this has impacted the Company’s operations and its financial performance in year 2021 and 2020. As COVID-19 continues to evolve with significant level of uncertainty, management of the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the full financial impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial results in year 2021. The Company is monitoring the situation closely and to mitigate the financial impact, it is conscientiously managing its cost by adopting an operating cost reduction strategy and conserving liquidity by working with major creditors to align repayment obligations with receivable collections. Based on the Company’s most recent projections for year 2021 and with over $9 million in cash and cash equivalents, management of the Company believes that the Company will be able to continue to operate as a going concern in the foreseeable future for at least the next 12 months.

2.8 Revenue from contracts with customers

The Company generates its revenue primarily from rendering the following services: (i) Cash-In-Transit - Non Dedicated Vehicle (Non-DV); (ii) Cash-In-Transit - Dedicated Vehicle (DV); (iii) ATM management; (iv) Cash Processing (CPC); (v) Cash Center Operations (CCT); (vi) Cheque Center Service (CDC); (vii) Express Cash; (viii) Coin Processing Service; (ix) Cash Deposit Management Solutions and (x) Robotics AI Solutions.

The Company recognizes revenue when it has transferred to its customer control over the service rendered. Control refers to the ability of the customer to direct and obtain substantially all the transferred service’s benefits. Also, it implies that the customer has the ability to prevent a third-party from directing the use and obtaining substantially all the benefits of the transferred service. The Company’s management applies the following considerations to analyze the moment in which the control of the service is transferred to the customer.

● Identify the contract or quotation with the agreed service price.

● Evaluate the services engaged in the customer’s contract and identify the related performance obligations.

● Consider the contract terms and commonly accepted practices in the business to determine the transaction price. The transaction price is the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled for delivering the services engaged with the customer. The consideration engaged in a customer’s contract is generally a fixed amount.

● Allocate the transaction price, if necessary, to each performance obligation (to each good or service that is different) for an amount that represents the part of the benefit that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the right of delivering the services engaged with the customer.

● Recognize revenue when the Company satisfied the performance obligation through the rendering of services engaged.

All of the conditions mentioned above are accomplished normally when the services are rendered to the customer and revenue is recognized when the Company satisfied the performance obligation over time or point in time depending on the service type. The reported revenue reflects services delivered at the contract or agreed-upon price.

F-11

Revenue is recognized when the related performance obligation is satisfied.

Intangible assets represent computer software. The intangible assets are recorded at historic acquisition costs, and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

Costs associated with maintaining computer software programs are recognized as an expense as incurred.

Intangible assets are not amortized where their useful lives are assessed to be indefinite. The useful life of an intangible asset that is not being amortized is reviewed annually to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support the indefinite useful life assessment for that asset. Otherwise, the change in useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is accounted for prospectively from the date of change and in accordance with the policy for amortization of intangible assets with finite lives as set out above. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no indefinite lived intangible assets.

A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Overview

We conduct business through Guardforce Cash Solutions Security Thailand Co., Limited, or GF Cash (CIT), our subsidiary, in one segment which provides secured logistics solutions in Thailand. This includes the following services:

(i) Cash-In-Transit – Non-Dedicated Vehicle (Non-DV):

CIT (Non-DV) includes the secure transportation of cash and other valuables between commercial banks and the Bank of Thailand, Thailand’s central bank. CIT (Non-DV) also includes the transportation of coins between the commercial banks, the Thai Royal Mints and the Bank of Thailand. As such, the main customers for this service are the local commercial banks. Charges to the customers are dependent on the value of the consignment; condition of the cash being collected (for example, seal bag collection, piece count collection, bulk count collection, or loose cash collection); and the volume of the transaction. Vehicles used for the delivery of this service are not dedicated to the specific customers.

(ii) Cash-In-Transit – Dedicated Vehicle (DV):

CIT (DV) includes the secure transportation of cash and other valuables between commercial banks. As part of this service, dedicated vehicles are assigned specifically to the contracted customer for their dedicated use between the contracted designated bank branches. As this is a dedicated vehicle service, customers will submit direct schedules to our CIT teams for the daily operational arrangements and planning. Charges to the customers are on a per vehicle per month basis.

(iii) ATM Management Services:

ATM management includes cash replenishment services and first and second line of maintenance services for the ATM machines. First line of maintenance services (FLM) includes rectification of issues related to jammed notes, dispenser failures and transaction record print-out issues. Second line of maintenance services (SLM) includes all other issues that cannot be rectified under the FLM. SLM includes, for example, complete machine failure, and damage to hardware and software.

(iv) Cash Processing (CPC):

Cash processing (CPC) services include counting, sorting, counterfeit detection and vaulting services. We provide these services to commercial banks in Thailand.

(v) Cash Center Operations (CCT):

Cash Center Operations (CCT) is an outsourced cash center management service. We operate the cash center on behalf of the customer, which includes note counting, sorting, storage, inventory management and secured transportation of the notes and coins to the various commercial banks in Thailand.

(vi) Cheque Center Service (CDC):

Cheque Center Service (CDC) includes secured cheque pickup and delivery service.

(vii) Express Cash:

The express cash service is an expansion of our Guardforce Digital Machine, or GDM, solution. We work with commercial banks to have a mobile GDM installed in our CIT vehicles to collect cash from retail customers at the retailers’ sites. The cash is immediately processed inside the CIT vehicle and the cash counting results are immediately transmitted to GF Cash (CIT) headquarters and to a commercial bank. The bank will then credit the counted amount to its customers’ bank accounts. We launched the Express Cash service in 2019.

(viii) Coin Processing Service:

The Coin Processing Service includes the secure collection of coins from retail businesses and banks. The coins are stored and then delivered to the Royal Thai Mint, a sub-division of the Thai Treasury Department, Ministry of Finance. We deploy manpower to work at the Royal Thai Mint as cashier services. Additionally, we use our existing vehicle fleet to deliver coins from the Royal Thai Mint to bank branches, and vice versa.

(ix) Cash Deposit Management Solutions:

Cash Deposit Management Solutions are currently delivered by our Guardforce Digital Machine solution. Our GDM product is deployed at customer sites to provide secured retail cash deposit services. Customers use our GDM product to deposit daily cash receipts. We then collect the daily receipts from our GDM in accordance with agreed schedules. All cash receipts are then securely collected and delivered to our cash processing center for further handling and processing.

The business environment in which we operate can change quickly. We must quickly adapt to changes in the competitive landscape and local market conditions. To be successful, we must be able to balance, on a market-by market basis, the effects of changing demand on the utilization of our resources. We operate on a centralized basis but allow enough flexibility so local field management can adjust operations to the particular circumstances of their markets.

We measure financial performance on a long-term basis. We create value by focusing on yielding solid returns on capital, growing our revenues and earnings, and generating cash flows sufficient to fund our growth.

Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Revenue

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our revenue was $18,405,025, a decrease of $323,761, or 1.7%, compared to $18,728,786 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. There was severe spread of COVID-19 in Thailand from March to May 2020 which led to the reduced number of customer orders. Thailand was relatively successful in containing the pandemic after May 2020 throughout most of 2020, but has been experiencing an uncontrolled resurgent outbreak since April 2021. The continuous spread of COVID-19 in 2021 led to the decrease in our revenue in 2021. The frequency of services delivered for our CIT and ATM management services business was affected as certain customers’ facilities were closed to curtail the spread of the coronavirus, especially during April 2021 to September 2021. In addition, as a result of two of our bank customers completing a merger in late 2020, our number of service activities were reduced compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. Although there was a drop in revenue for CIT related business, we benefited from an increase and stronger demand for our GDM products and Robotics AI Solutions business by our customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the revenue contribution from our Guardforce Digital Machine, or GDM product increased by $212,078 or 33.2%, which represents approximately 4.6% of our total revenue as compared to 3.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the revenue contribution from our Robotics AI Solutions increased by $75,348 or 58.6%, which represents approximately 1.1% of our total revenue as compared to 0.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Cost of revenue and gross margin

Cost of revenue:

Cost of revenue consists primarily of internal labour cost and related benefits, and other overhead costs that are directly attributable to services provided.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our cost of revenue was $16,346,463, an increase of $905,283, or 5.9%, compared to $15,441,180 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Cost of revenue as a percentage of our revenues increased from 82.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 88.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was mainly due to the increase in fuel consumption costs in 2021 by approximately 35.8% from THB18.97 ($0.6) average per litre as of June 2020 to THB25.76 ($0.8) average per litre as of June 2021. Despite the effective manpower streamline project to reduce our direct labor cost, the cost of overtime during the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased due to more services being performed during public holidays in 2021. Additionally, rental expense for our Thailand office increased by $336,487 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to the reallocation of a portion of the office rental from administrative expense to cost of revenue in 2021.

Gross margin:

As a percentage of revenue, our gross margin decreased from 17.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 11.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to increase in labour costs of overtime, fuel consumption costs and reallocation of rental expense in 2021.

Administrative expenses

The Company’s total administrative expenses are comprised of selling expenses and administrative expenses.

● Selling expenses are mainly comprised of compensation and benefits for our sales and marketing personnel, travel and entertainment expenses, exhibitions, advertising and marketing promotion expenses, depreciation of motor vehicles, rental expenses, utility expenses and transportation charges.

● Administrative expenses are mainly comprised of compensation and related expenses for our management and administrative personnel, depreciation of leasehold improvements and motor vehicles and rental expenses of our administrative offices in Bangkok, Thailand.

3

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our total administrative expenses were $3,271,608, an decrease of $822,924, or 20.1%, compared to $4,097,532 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The net decrease was mainly due to:

● Absence of severance payment due to no employees being laid off in 2021;

● Decrease in employee compensation and related expenses due to the reduction of manpower in 2021; and

● Decrease in rental expense for our Thailand office due to the reallocation of a portion of the office rental from administrative expense to cost of revenue in 2021.

Although we have effectively implemented our cost reduction measures, we expect our administrative expenses will increase over time as we continue to expand our business. Our selling expenses are expected to increase as we continue to expand our business and promote our Guardforce brand. Our administrative expenses are expected to increase, reflecting the hiring of additional personnel and other costs related to the anticipated growth of our business, as well as the higher costs of operating as a public company.

Other income

Other income is comprised mainly of miscellaneous income, interest income and gain (loss) from disposal of fixed assets.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, other income was $237,178, an increase of $204,726 or 630.9%, as compared to $32,452 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was mainly due to amount due to a related party of $224,766 was forgiven in May 2021.

Finance costs

Finance costs are comprised of finance charges for leases, interest expense on interest-bearing bank borrowings and related party borrowings utilized for working capital purposes.

Income tax expense

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our income tax expense was $nil, a decrease of $58,368, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. We are subject to various rates of income tax under different jurisdictions. No income tax expense was due in the six months ended June 30, 2021 as there was no taxable profit reported earned in 2021.

Net loss

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our net loss was $1,555,183, a slight increase of $23,579, as compared to net loss $1,520,394 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This was mainly due to an increase in cost of revenues and an allowance on withholding tax receivables was made in 2021.

Net loss (profit) attributable to non-controlling Interests:

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, net loss (profits) attributable to non-controlling interests were $(91) and $5,420 respectively.

Net loss attributable to equity holders of the Company:

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our net loss attributable to equity holders of the Company were $1,555,183 and $1,578,762, respectively.

Inflation.

Inflation is not expected to materially affect our business or the results of our operations.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations.

Our activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. Our overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on our financial performance.

Critical Accounting Policies.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers supersedes IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue and related Interpretations and it applies, with limited exceptions, to all revenue arising from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers and requires that revenue be recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring services or goods to a customer. IFRS 15 requires entities to exercise judgment, taking into consideration all of the relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts with our customers. The standard also specifies the accounting for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and the costs directly related to fulfilling a contract. In addition, the standard requires extensive disclosures.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, bringing together all three aspects of the accounting for financial instruments: classification and measurement; impairment: and hedge accounting.

The IASB issued a new standard IFRS 16 for leases. This standard replaced IAS 17. The main impact on lessees is that almost all leases are reflected on the balance sheet. This is because the balance sheet distinction between operating and finance leases is removed for lessees. Instead, under the new standard an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals are recognized. The only exemptions are short-term and low-value leases. The Company has adopted IFRS 16 from January 1, 2019 and has not restated comparatives for the prior reporting periods, as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in the standard. The reclassifications and the adjustments arising from the new leasing rules are therefore recognized in the opening consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2019.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

To supplement our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA as financial measures for our consolidated results.

We believe that adjusted EBITDA helps identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain income or expenses that we include in income (loss) from operations and net income (loss). We believe that these non-IFRS measures provide useful information about our core operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. We present the non-IFRS financial measures in order to provide more information and greater transparency to investors about our operating results.

EBITDA represents net income before (i) finance costs, income taxes and depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets, which we do not believe are reflective of our core operating performance during the periods presented.

Non-IFRS adjusted net income represents net income before (i) finance costs, income taxes and depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets, (ii) certain non-cash expenses, consisting of stock-based compensation expense and allowance for withholding tax receivables.

Non-IFRS earnings per share represents non-IFRS net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods. Non-IFRS diluted earnings per share represents non-IFRS net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods on a diluted basis.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity and capital resources have been, and are expected to continue to be, cash flow from operations and bank borrowings. Our principal uses of cash have been, and we expect will continue to be, for working capital to support a reasonable increase in our scale of operations as well as for business expansion investments.

On September 28, 2021, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) declared effective a registration statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-258054) (the “Registration Statement”) for an initial public offering of 3,614,458 units of Guardforce AI, at a public offering price of $4.15 per unit, with each unit consisting of one ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.003 per share (the “Ordinary Share”), and one warrant to purchase one Ordinary Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $15 million, before underwriting discounts and other offering expenses.

As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $9.4 million and $9.0 million, respectively.

The following table summarizes the key cash flow components from our unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods indicated.

Management Commentary

Terence Yap, Chairman of Guardforce AI, commented, “As a cash logistics business historically based in Thailand, 2021 was as a year of strategic change within our business, positioning the Company for continued growth. Currently, nearly all of our revenues are derived from our secure logistics business. In 2020, at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we began to develop other non-cash related solutions and services. During this time, robotic solutions for our customers were rolled out in Thailand and the Asia Pacific region. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we had generated approximately $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively in revenue from our robotic solutions business, demonstrating our progress towards our goal of diversifying our service offerings, and more importantly revenue streams as we believe trends in the security industry over the next decade will be characterized by rapid technological change, continual convergence between physical security and cybersecurity and increased competition. Against the backdrop of these industry trends, we aim to enhance shareholder value by maintaining and consolidating our leading position in the Thailand secured logistics services market as well as leveraging our competitive strengths to exploit new opportunities arising from the increasing physical and cyber convergence and the growth in regional security demand.

“Our goal of expanding our Robots as a Service (RaaS) platform to efficiently offer more AI value-added services for our customers is most evident in our recently announced U.S. expansion through the proposed acquisition of SBC Global Holdings Inc. This strategic expansion is in-line with our goal of increasing the speed of transformation and enhancing our technological capabilities by acquiring or establishing partnerships with technology innovators in the cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, robotics and related fields. Lastly, this acquisition allows us to expand and gain access to our target markets, increasing our international presence,” Terence Yap concluded.

Financial Summary for Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

● Loss from operations was $1.3 million compared to $0.8 million in the same period of 2020. EBITDA was $1.4 million on non-IFRS measurement, compared to $1.4 million in the same period of 2020, an increase of 2%.

● Net loss remained consistent at $1.6 million compared the same period of 2020. Non-IFRS net income was $1.5 million, an increase of 7.5% compared to $1.4 million in the same period of 2020. This was mainly due to an increase in cost of revenues and allowance on withholding tax receivables.

● Loss per share was $0.09. Non-IFRS earnings per share was $0.09, an increase of 12.5% compared to $0.08 in the same period of 2020.

● Net cash provided by operating activities was $2 million, an increase of 74.9% compared to $1.2 million in the same period of 2020 was mainly due to the collection of the withholding tax refund of approximately $0.7 million in January 2021.

● Revenue was approximately $18.4 million, compared to $18.7 million in the same period of 2020 primarily due to the severe spread of COVID-19 in Thailand from March to May 2020 significantly reducing the number of customer orders.

● For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company generated approximately $0.1 million in revenue from our cyber security business.

● For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our cost of revenue was $16.3 million, an increase of $905,283, or 5.9%, compared to $15,441,180 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Cost of revenue as a percentage of our revenues increased from 82.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 88.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was mainly due to the increase in fuel consumption costs in 2021 by approximately 35.8%.

● As a percentage of revenue, our gross margin was 11.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 17.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to increase in labor costs of overtime, fuel consumption costs and reallocation of rental expense in 2021.

● For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our total administrative expenses were $3.3 million, a decrease of $822,924, or 20.1%, compared to $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was mainly due to absence of severance payment due to no employee layoffs, a decrease in employee compensation and related expenses due to the reduction in necessary manpower in 2021, and a decrease in rental expense for our Thailand office.

● For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our income tax expense was $nil, a decrease of $58,368, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. We are subject to various rates of income tax under different jurisdictions. No income tax expense was due as there was no taxable profit reported in 2020.

Reconciliations of IFRS measures to non-IFRS measures presented above are included at the end of this document.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA as financial measures for our consolidated results.

We believe that adjusted EBITDA help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain income or expenses that we include in income from operations and net income. We believe that these non-IFRS measures provide useful information about our core operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. We present the non-IFRS financial measures in order to provide more information and greater transparency to investors about our operating results.

EBITDA represents net income before (i) finance costs, income taxes and depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets, which we do not believe are reflective of our core operating performance during the periods presented.

Non-IFRS adjusted net income represents net income before (i) finance costs, income taxes and depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets, (ii) certain non-cash expenses, consisting of stock-based compensation expense and allowance for withholding tax receivables.

Non-IFRS earnings per share represents non-IFRS net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods. Non-IFRS diluted earnings per share represents non-IFRS net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods on a diluted basis.

The table below is a reconciliation of our net income to EBITDA and non-IFRS net income for the periods indicated:

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Equity interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the controlling shareholders are presented as non-controlling interests in equity.

All intra-group and inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

2.3 Business combinations under common control

IFRS 3 Business combinations does not include specific measurement guidance for transfers of businesses or subsidiaries between entities under common control. Accordingly, the Company has accounted for such transactions taking into consideration other guidance in the IFRS framework and pronouncements of other standard-setting bodies. The Company recorded assets and liabilities recognized as a result of transactions between entities under common control at the carrying value on the transferor’s financial statements, and to have the consolidated statements of financial position, profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows reflect the results of combining entities for all periods presented for which the entities were under the transferor’s common control, irrespective of when the combination takes place.

2.4 Non-controlling interest

The non-controlling interest represents the portion of the equity (net assets) in the subsidiary not directly or indirectly attributable to the Company. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity on the consolidated statements of financial position, profit or loss, comprehensive income and changes in equity attributed to controlling and non-controlling interests.

2.6 Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

2.7 Financial risk management

2.7.1 Financial risk factors

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the audited financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 2.7.2 Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity management implies maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities.

The Company’s primary cash requirements are for operating expenses and purchases of fixed assets. The Company mainly finances its working capital requirements from cash generated from operation and proceeds from bank borrowings and finance leases.

The Company’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure it maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents and an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and long term.

At the reporting date, the contractual undiscounted cash flows of the Company’s current financial liabilities approximate their respective carrying amounts due to their short maturities.

2.7.3 Capital risk management

The Company’s objectives on managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and support the sustainable growth of the Company in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to enhance shareholders’ value in the long term.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return of capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

In the opinion of the directors of the Company, the Company’s capital risk is low.

2.7.4 Impact of COVID-19

The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak and the measures taken to contain the spread of the pandemic have created a high level of uncertainty to global economic prospects and this has impacted the Company’s operations and its financial performance in year 2021 and 2020. As COVID-19 continues to evolve with significant level of uncertainty, management of the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the full financial impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial results in year 2021. The Company is monitoring the situation closely and to mitigate the financial impact, it is conscientiously managing its cost by adopting an operating cost reduction strategy and conserving liquidity by working with major creditors to align repayment obligations with receivable collections. Based on the Company’s most recent projections for year 2021 and with over $9 million in cash and cash equivalents, management of the Company believes that the Company will be able to continue to operate as a going concern in the foreseeable future for at least the next 12 months.

2.8 Revenue from contracts with customers

The Company generates its revenue primarily from rendering the following services: (i) Cash-In-Transit - Non Dedicated Vehicle (Non-DV); (ii) Cash-In-Transit - Dedicated Vehicle (DV); (iii) ATM management; (iv) Cash Processing (CPC); (v) Cash Center Operations (CCT); (vi) Cheque Center Service (CDC); (vii) Express Cash; (viii) Coin Processing Service; (ix) Cash Deposit Management Solutions and (x) Robotics AI Solutions.

The Company recognizes revenue when it has transferred to its customer control over the service rendered. Control refers to the ability of the customer to direct and obtain substantially all the transferred service’s benefits. Also, it implies that the customer has the ability to prevent a third-party from directing the use and obtaining substantially all the benefits of the transferred service. The Company’s management applies the following considerations to analyze the moment in which the control of the service is transferred to the customer.

● Identify the contract or quotation with the agreed service price.

● Evaluate the services engaged in the customer’s contract and identify the related performance obligations.

● Consider the contract terms and commonly accepted practices in the business to determine the transaction price. The transaction price is the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled for delivering the services engaged with the customer. The consideration engaged in a customer’s contract is generally a fixed amount.

● Allocate the transaction price, if necessary, to each performance obligation (to each good or service that is different) for an amount that represents the part of the benefit that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the right of delivering the services engaged with the customer.

● Recognize revenue when the Company satisfied the performance obligation through the rendering of services engaged.

All of the conditions mentioned above are accomplished normally when the services are rendered to the customer and revenue is recognized when the Company satisfied the performance obligation over time or point in time depending on the service type. The reported revenue reflects services delivered at the contract or agreed-upon price.

Revenue is recognized when the related performance obligation is satisfied.

Disaggregation information of revenue by service type is as follows:

INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

11. INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

Intangible assets represent computer software. The intangible assets are recorded at historic acquisition costs, and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

Costs associated with maintaining computer software programs are recognized as an expense as incurred. Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Company will be recognized as intangible assets when the criteria of intangible assets are met.

Intangible assets are not amortized where their useful lives are assessed to be indefinite. The useful life of an intangible asset that is not being amortized is reviewed annually to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support the indefinite useful life assessment for that asset. Otherwise, the change in useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is accounted for prospectively from the date of change and in accordance with the policy for amortization of intangible assets with finite lives as set out above. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no indefinite lived intangible assets.

TAXATION

15. TAXATION

Value added tax (“VAT”)

The Company is subject to a statutory VAT of 7% for services in Thailand. The output VAT is charged to customers who receive services from the Company and the input VAT is paid when the Company purchases goods and services from its vendors. The input VAT can be offset against the output VAT.  The VAT payable is presented on the statements of financial position when input VAT is less than the output VAT.  A recoverable balance is presented on the statements of financial position when input VAT is larger than the output VAT.

Deferred taxes

Current income taxes are provided on the basis of net income for financial reporting purposes, adjusted for income and expense items which are not assessable or deductible for income tax purposes, in accordance with the regulations of the relevant tax jurisdictions. Deferred income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The tax base of an asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purposes. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of profit or loss in the period of change. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Use of estimates

2.6 Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Financial risk management

2.7 Financial risk management

2.7.1 Financial risk factors

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the audited financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 2.7.2 Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity management implies maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities.

The Company’s primary cash requirements are for operating expenses and purchases of fixed assets. The Company mainly finances its working capital requirements from cash generated from operation and proceeds from bank borrowings and finance leases.

The Company’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure it maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents and an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and long term.

At the reporting date, the contractual undiscounted cash flows of the Company’s current financial liabilities approximate their respective carrying amounts due to their short maturities.

2.7.3 Capital risk management

The Company’s objectives on managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and support the sustainable growth of the Company in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to enhance shareholders’ value in the long term.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return of capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

In the opinion of the directors of the Company, the Company’s capital risk is low.

2.7.4 Impact of COVID-19

The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak and the measures taken to contain the spread of the pandemic have created a high level of uncertainty to global economic prospects and this has impacted the Company’s operations and its financial performance in year 2021 and 2020. As COVID-19 continues to evolve with significant level of uncertainty, management of the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the full financial impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial results in year 2021. The Company is monitoring the situation closely and to mitigate the financial impact, it is conscientiously managing its cost by adopting an operating cost reduction strategy and conserving liquidity by working with major creditors to align repayment obligations with receivable collections. Based on the Company’s most recent projections for year 2021 and with over $9 million in cash and cash equivalents, management of the Company believes that the Company will be able to continue to operate as a going concern in the foreseeable future for at least the next 12 months.

Revenue from contracts with customers

2.8 Revenue from contracts with customers

The Company generates its revenue primarily from rendering the following services: (i) Cash-In-Transit - Non Dedicated Vehicle (Non-DV); (ii) Cash-In-Transit - Dedicated Vehicle (DV); (iii) ATM management; (iv) Cash Processing (CPC); (v) Cash Center Operations (CCT); (vi) Cheque Center Service (CDC); (vii) Express Cash; (viii) Coin Processing Service; (ix) Cash Deposit Management Solutions and (x) Robotics AI Solutions.

The Company recognizes revenue when it has transferred to its customer control over the service rendered. Control refers to the ability of the customer to direct and obtain substantially all the transferred service’s benefits. Also, it implies that the customer has the ability to prevent a third-party from directing the use and obtaining substantially all the benefits of the transferred service. The Company’s management applies the following considerations to analyze the moment in which the control of the service is transferred to the customer.

● Identify the contract or quotation with the agreed service price.

● Evaluate the services engaged in the customer’s contract and identify the related performance obligations.

● Consider the contract terms and commonly accepted practices in the business to determine the transaction price. The transaction price is the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled for delivering the services engaged with the customer. The consideration engaged in a customer’s contract is generally a fixed amount.

● Allocate the transaction price, if necessary, to each performance obligation (to each good or service that is different) for an amount that represents the part of the benefit that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the right of delivering the services engaged with the customer.

● Recognize revenue when the Company satisfied the performance obligation through the rendering of services engaged.

All of the conditions mentioned above are accomplished normally when the services are rendered to the customer and revenue is recognized when the Company satisfied the performance obligation over time or point in time depending on the service type. The reported revenue reflects services delivered at the contract or agreed-upon price.

Revenue is recognized when the related performance obligation is satisfied.
