Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 December 2024

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Financial Reporting Standard 101

    Turnover policy

    The Company comprises of mainly two types of revenues 1) Licensing fees (also known as B2B sales) a. Setup Fees b. Monthly development and support fees c. Usage fees 2) Content (“download”) revenues (also know as B2C sales) Each type of revenue is detailed below Revenue comprises of: 1) Licensing revenues 7digital defines licensing revenues as fees earned both for access to the Company’s platform and for development work on that platform in order to adapt functions to customer needs. The Board considers that the provision of Technology Licensing Services comprises three separately identifiable components: The description of the licence fees compromise three categories; a. Set-up fees : Set up fees which grant initial access to the platform, allow use of our catalogue and associated metadata and mark the start of work to define a client’s exact requirements and create the detailed specifications of a service. Recognition of set-up fees is detailed below. b. Monthly development and support fees which cover the costs of developer and customer support time. These are usually fixed and are paid monthly once a service has been specified in detail; they are calculated at commercial rates based on the number of developer or support days required. Recognition of these fees is detailed below. c. Usage fees which cover certain variable costs like bandwidth which can be re-charged to clients with an administrative margin are recognised at point in time based on usage. 2) Content (“download”) revenues Content revenues are recognised at the value of services supplied and on delivery of the content. The Company manages several content stores, and the income is recognised in the month it relates to. Majority of the revenue converts directly to cash; any accrued revenue converts to trade receivables within 30days. Contracts with multiple performance obligations Many of the Company's contracts include a variety of performance obligations, including Licensing revenue (set-up fees, monthly revenue for using 7digital’s API licence platform and usage fees), however these may not be distinct in nature. Under IFRS 15, the Company evaluates the segregation of the agreed goods or services based on whether they are 'distinct', if both the customer benefits from them either on its own or together with other readily available resources, and it is 'separately identifiable' within the contract. To determine whether to recognise revenue, the Company follows a 5-step process: - Identifying the contract with customers - Identifying the performance obligations - Determining the transaction price - Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations - Recognising revenue when/ as performance obligations are satisfied. Performance Obligations and timing of revenue recognition Revenue generated from B2B customer contracts often identify separate goods/services, with these generally being the access of the API license platform, and the associated monthly licence maintenance fees and content usage fees. The list of obligations as per the contract that are deemed to be one performance obligation in case of Licensing revenue are (B2B): - The licences provide access to the 7digital platform - The development and support fees which cover the costs of developer and customer support time - Usage fees which cover certain variable costs like bandwidth and content. A key consideration is whether Licensing fees give the customer the right to use the API Licence as it exists when the licence is granted, or access to API which will, amongst other considerations, be significantly updated during the API licence period. The Company grants the customer a limited, revocable, non-exclusive and non-transferable licence in the Territory during the Term, to use the 7digital API and the content to enable the provision of the Music Service to the End Users via Application. Set-up fees represent an obligation under the contract, which is not a distinct performance obligation, as the customer is not able to access the platform without them. These are therefore spread over the period of the contract agreed initially with the customers. Monthly licence maintenance fees indicate service contracts that provide ongoing support over a period of time. Revenue is recognised over the term of the contract on a straight-line basis. Payment terms vary depending on the specific product or service purchased. With licence fees, the set-up fees element is invoiced and paid upfront, while monthly maintenance revenues and usage fees are normally invoiced on a monthly basis. In the case of download sales, the cost is paid immediately by the customer upon download of the music/songs content from the 7digital platform. All contracts are subject to these standard payment terms, to the extent that the parties involved expressly agree in writing that the conflicting terms of any agreement shall take precedence. Determine transaction price and allocating to each performance obligation The transaction price for Licensing fees (set-up fees and monthly licence fee) is fixed as per contract and is explicitly noted in the contract. In the case of usage fees, the per gigabyte fee is determined and agreed in the contract. Any variations in transaction price are agreed and charged additionally depending on the obligations to be performed. None of the five factors (i.e., variable consideration, constraining estimates of variable consideration, the existence of a significant financing component in the contract, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to a customer identified) are particularly relevant to 7digital’s customer contracts. The transaction price included in 7digital’s contracts is generally easily identifiable and is for cash consideration.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Items of property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at cost. As well as the purchased price, cost includes directly attributable costs and the estimated present value of any future unavoidable costs of dismantling and removing items. The corresponding liability is recognised within provisions. Depreciation is provision on all items of property, plant and equipment, so as to write off their carrying value over their expected useful economic lives. It is provided at the following rates: Computer equipment - 33.33% per annum straight line

    Intangible fixed assets amortisation policy

    Externally acquired intangible assets are initially recognised at cost and subsequently amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives. Intangible assets are recognised on business combinations if they are separable from the acquired entity or give rise to contractual/legal rights. The amounts ascribed to such intangibles are arrived at by using appropriate valuation techniques.

    Other accounting policies

    Foreign currency In preparing the financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At each balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items and on the retranslation of monetary items, are included in profit and loss for the year. Impairment of tangible and other intangible assets Impairment tests on goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite useful economic lives are undertaken annually at the financial year end. Other non-financial assets are subject to impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount (i.e., the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell), the asset is written down accordingly. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the smallest group of assets to which it belongs for which there are separately identifiable cash flows; its cash generating units ('CGUs'). Goodwill is allocated on initial recognition to each of the Company's CGUs that are expected to benefit from a business combination that gives rise to the goodwill. Impairment charges are included in profit or loss, except to the extent they reverse gains previously recognised in other comprehensive income. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed. Cash and cash equivalent Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits and other short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Government grants Government grants, including research and development credits are recognised when it is reasonable to expect that the grants will be received and that all related conditions will be met, usually on submission of a valid claim for payment. Grants of a revenue nature are credited to income so as to match them with the expenditure to which they relate. Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Initial Recognition: Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and ancillary costs related to borrowings) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss over the tenure of the financial assets or financial liabilities. Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial Assets The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (“FVOCI”) or Fair Value through Profit or Loss (“FVTPL”) on the basis of following: - the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and - the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. Amortised Cost: A financial asset shall be classified and measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met: - the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and - the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. In case of financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost, any interest income, foreign exchange gains or losses and impairment are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Fair Value through OCI: A financial asset shall be classified and measured at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met: - the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and - the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Fair Value through Profit or Loss: A financial asset shall be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortised cost or at fair value through OCI. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets. For financial assets at FVTPL, net gains or losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or ‘other financial liabilities’. Financial Liabilities at FVTPL: Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or is a derivative (except for effective hedge) or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Gains or Losses, including any interest expense on liabilities held for trading, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Other Financial Liabilities: Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the amortised cost on initial recognition. Interest expense (based on the effective interest method), foreign exchange gains and losses, and any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Impairment of financial assets: Expected credit losses are recognised for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition other than financial assets in FVTPL category. For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per IFRS 9, the Company recognises 12 month expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting date the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on financial asset increases significantly since its initial recognition. Impairment provisions for trade receivables are recognised based on the simplified approach within IFRS 9 using the lifetime expected credit losses. During this process, the probability of the non-payment of the trade receivables is assessed. Thus, probability is then multiplied by the amount of the expected loss arising from default to determine the lifetime expected credit loss for the trade receivables. For trade receivables, which are reported net, such provisions are recorded in a separate provision account with the loss being recognised within cost of sales in the consolidated statement of comprehensive Income. On confirmation that the trade receivable will not be collectable, the gross carrying value of the asset is written off against the associated provision. The impairment losses and reversals are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss. De-recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities: The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises an associated liability for amounts it has to pay. On de-recognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in OCI and accumulated in equity is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The Company de-recognises financial liabilities when and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability de-recognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Financial liabilities and equity instruments: - Classification as debt or equity: Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. - Equity instruments: An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a Company are recognised at the proceeds received. Derivative financial instruments: The Company enters into derivative financial instruments viz. a residual of the convertible loan instrument. The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Fair value measurement A number of assets and liabilities included in the Company’s financial statements require measurement at, and/or disclosure of, fair value. The fair value measurement of the Company’s financial and non-financial assets and liabilities utilises market observable inputs and data as far as possible. Inputs used in determining fair value measurements are categorised into different levels based on how observable the inputs used in the valuation technique utilised are (the ‘fair value hierarchy’): - Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical items (unadjusted) - Level 2: Observable direct or indirect inputs other than Level 1 inputs - Level 3: Unobservable inputs (i.e. not derived from market data) The classification of an item into the above levels is based on the lowest level of the inputs used that has a significant effect on the fair value measurement of the item. Transfers of items between levels are recognised in the period they occur. Taxation The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a charge attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income. The deferred tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income. Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the Company. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Recognition of deferred tax assets is restricted to those instances where it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the difference can be utilised. Leases All leases are accounted for by recognising a right-of-use asset and a lease liability except for: - leases of low value assets; and - leases with a duration of 12 months or less. Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the contractual payments due to the lessor over the lease term, with the discount rate determined by reference to the rate inherent in the lease. On initial recognition, the carrying value of the lease liability also includes: - amounts expected to be payable under any residual value guarantee; - the exercise price of any purchase option granted in favour of the Company if it is reasonably certain to assess that option; and - any penalties payable for terminating the lease, if the term of the lease has been estimated on the basis of termination option being exercised. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at the amount of the lease liability, reduced for any lease incentives received, and increased for: - lease payments made at or before commencement of the lease; - initial direct costs incurred; and - the amount of any provision recognised where the Company is contractually required to dismantle, remove or restore the leased asset. Subsequent to initial measurement lease liabilities increase as a result of interest charged at a constant rate on the balance outstanding and are reduced for lease payments made. Right-of-use assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease.
