Overall, our customers are staying with us for longer and spending more of their advertising budget with Taptica.

 

"Looking ahead, we entered 2016 in a better position than we did last year as the Company's mobile offering continues to gain traction with household-named brands as well as seeing expanding demand for its solutions. We expect significant growth from AreaOne as advertisers increasingly demand traffic supply and data collection from social media channels. The business continues to diversify geographically and is experiencing sustained growth in its core database. As a result, the Board remains confident of delivering continued revenue growth and looks forward to 2016."

Operational Review  

 

This has been a transformational year for Taptica following the strategic decision to move away from the legacy display business and focus on mobile due to the significant growth in advertising on mobile devices and targeted campaigns run by companies and agencies to reach their audiences. The Company continued to invest in improving its mobile technology offering which resulted in significant growth in the mobile business revenues. This offset the managed decline in display sales with overall Company revenues growing by 20% to $75.8 million in 2015 compared with $63.1 million for 2014.

 

By transforming itself into a mobile-focused business, Taptica has laid the foundations to generate higher and more sustainable growth rates, which have been built upon during the second half of the year.

 

Transition to a mobile marketing ad-technology business 

 

The strength of the Taptica mobile offer is based on its IP, and the Company continued to invest in developing its technology throughout 2015. This included database and machine learning advancements in order to further enhance Taptica's ability to leverage data, which is key to enabling mobile targeting and user acquisition for the Company's advertiser clients.

 

The key development during the second half of 2015 was the acquisition of AreaOne Ltd., a performance marketing technology company and accredited Facebook® Marketing Partner. The addition of social media marketing functionality provides the Company's clients with more impactful campaigns by enabling access to Facebook - the largest and most popular supplier of media on mobile.

 

The combination of Taptica and AreaOne technologies has created a single platform that optimises marketing campaigns for advertisers across mobile and social media channels. AreaOne's ability for bid optimisation and budget optimisation in a cost-effective manner across social media channels is a key advantage for advertisers particularly when linked with Taptica's ever-growing repository of big data generated from mobile campaigns run on its platform. Further, the acquisition provided the Company with an initial footprint in China and the Asian market, which the Directors intend to leverage to accelerate the expansion of Taptica's presence in Asia.

 

In addition, in H2 2015, through AreaOne, the Company integrated with the Instagram Ads API. As a result, Taptica now enables advertisers to run campaigns across the widest range of traffic sources available today.

 

Instagram is one of the largest and fastest-growing advertising platforms available worldwide with over 400 million users. Integrating with the Instagram Ads API allows Taptica to integrate their software with Instagram's advertising systems enabling - for the first time - Instagram ads to be bought, and incorporated into marketing campaigns, in an automated fashion.

 

Research & Development

 

During 2015, the Company continued to invest significantly in the development of its proprietary technology.

 

At the beginning of the period, the Company launched a data analytics tool that delivers to advertisers advanced insights into mobile user behaviour and demographics for precise mobile ad campaign targeting. Unlike current solutions on the market, the Company utilises an array of anonymised user behaviour data, including impressions, clicks, conversions, purchases and money spent, combined with detailed demographic data such as location, age, gender and operating system, to refine advertising spend according to the customer's target, leading to higher user retention and increased return on investment.

 

 

 

Financial Review

 

Revenues for the twelve months ended 31 December 2015 increased by 20% to $75.8 million compared with $63.1 million in 2014.

 

Total gross margin was 27.8% (H1: 26.5%; 2014: 30.2%), which includes an improvement in mobile gross margin to 27.4% (2014: 24.5%).

 

Cost of sales, which consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs that are directly attributable to revenue generated by the Company and based on the revenue share arrangements with audience and content partners, increased as a proportion of revenue compared with the prior year. This growth was due to the significant increase in mobile revenue; gross profit grew by 11% to $21.1 million (2014: $19.0 million) representing the faster growth in lower-margin mobile business.

 

Operating costs increased primarily due to the investment in the mobile business. R&D expenses more than doubled to $4.1 million (2014: $2.0 million). Sales & marketing increased in the period as investments were made to enhance brand recognition and expand the global customer base. General & administrative expenses were also greater than the same period of the prior year largely as a result of the full twelve-month contribution of costs associated with being a public company as well as the opening of the New York office and strengthening of the San Francisco office.

 

Operating costs for full year 2015 include the first full year of Taptica Ltd. costs compared with five months in 2014 as well as the AreaOne costs following the acquisition in September 2015.

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended 31 December 2015 was $7.4 million compared with $10.5 million for 2014, which is comprised as follows:

The Company continued to be cash generative with net cash provided by operating activities of $6.2 million (2014: $8.6 million). Total dividend payments in the period were $1.5 million.

 

As at 31 December 2015, cash and bank deposits were $18.7 million, after distributing $1.5 million in dividend payments and the initial AreaOne acquisition payment of $9.3 million, compared with $22.8 million at 30 June 2015 and $24.7 million at 31 December 2014.

 

Dividend

 

The Company maintains its policy of distributing 25% of net profits in dividend payments. As such, the Board has resolved to declare a final dividend of $0.00784 per share, equating to a total dividend pay-out of $537,129, out of the Company's net profits for the 12 months ended 31 December 2015. 

 

Outlook

 

Looking ahead, the Company entered 2016 in a better position than it did last year as Taptica's mobile offering continues to gain traction with household-named brands as well as seeing expanding demand for its solutions. The Company expects significant growth from AreaOne as advertisers increasingly demand traffic supply and data collection from social media channels. The business continues to diversify geographically and is experiencing sustained growth in its core database. As a result, the Board remains confident of delivering continued revenue growth and looks forward to 2016.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

 

Note 1 - General

 

A.        Reporting entity

 

Taptica International Ltd. (the "Company" or "Taptica International"), formerly named Marimedia Ltd., has submitted a request to change its name following the Company's annual general meeting, held on 20 August 2015. The Israeli Companies Registrar has formally approved the Company's name change on September 22, 2015 with immediate effect. Since that date, the Company's shares are traded under the new name and TIDM: TAP (previously MARI).

 

The Company was incorporated in Israel under the laws of the state of Israel on 20 March 2007. The address of the registered office is 121 Hahashmonaim Street Tel Aviv, Israel.

 

Taptica International Ltd. is a global end-to-end mobile advertising platform that helps the world's top brands reach their most valuable users with the widest range of traffic sources available today, including social. The Company's proprietary technology leverages big data, and combined with state-of-the-art machine learning, enables quality media targeting at scale. Founded in 2007, Taptica International has a worldwide base of partnerships with media companies; maximising value for a wide range of Tier 1 brands including Amazon, Disney, Facebook, Twitter, OpenTable, Expedia, Lyft and Zynga. The Company is headquartered in Tel Aviv with offices in San Francisco, New York and Beijing.

 

Taptica International's large and diverse publisher inventory is in high demand by advertisers who are constantly in search of specialised ability to measure, track and increase revenues; offering an opportunity for global outreach and potential growth.

 

On 2 April 2014, the Company entered into an option agreement with Taptica Ltd. ("Taptica") and its shareholders, which granted the Company the option to purchase 100% of the outstanding share capital of Taptica. On 1 August 2014, the Company exercised the option. Following the option exercise, the Company purchased 100% of Taptica's share capital for a total consideration of USD 13.84 million.

 

On 28 May 2014, the Company's shares began trading on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange following the Company's initial public offering.

Note 2 - Basis of Preparation

 

A.        Statement of compliance

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

 

The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on 15 March 2016.

 

B.        Functional and presentation currency

 

These consolidated financial statements are presented in USD, which is the Company's functional currency, and have been rounded to the nearest thousands, except when otherwise indicated. The USD is the currency that represents the principal economic environment in which the Company operates.

 

C.        Basis of measurement

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for the following assets and liabilities:

 

•           Investments in money market funds

•           Deferred tax assets and liabilities

•           Liabilities for employee benefits

•           Contingent consideration commitment

 

For further information regarding the measurement of these assets and liabilities see Note 3 regarding significant accounting policies.

 

D.        Use of estimates and judgments

 

Use of estimates

 

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

 

The preparation of accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Group's financial statements requires management of the Group to make assumptions regarding circumstances and events that involve considerable uncertainty. Management of the Group prepares estimates on the basis of past experience, various facts, external circumstances, and reasonable assumptions according to the pertinent circumstances of each estimate.

 

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

 

 

Note 2 - Basis of Preparation (cont'd)

 

E.         Determination of fair value

 

Preparation of the financial statements requires the Group to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. Further information about the assumptions that were used to determine fair value is included in the following notes:

•           Note 13, on share-based payments;

•           Note 14, on financial instruments; and

•           Note 16, on subsidiaries (regarding business combinations).

 

When determining the fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses observable market data as much as possible. There are three levels of fair value measurements in the fair value hierarchy that are based on the data used in the measurement, as follows:

 

•           Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•           Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly

•           Level 3: inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

Use of estimates and judgments

 

Information about significant judgments (other than those involving estimates) made by the management while implementing Group accounting policies and which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is included in Note 6, on intangible assets, with respect to the accounting of software development, and Note 16, on subsidiaries, with respect to business combination.

 

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies

 

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently for all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities.

 

A.        Basis of consolidation

 

(1)        Business combinations

 

The Group implements the acquisition method to all business combinations. The acquisition date is the date on which the acquirer obtains control over the acquiree. Control exists when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the acquiree and it has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the acquiree. Substantive rights held by the Group and others are taken into account when assessing control.

 

The Group recognizes goodwill on acquisition according to the fair value of the consideration transferred less the net amount of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

 

The consideration transferred includes the fair value of the assets transferred to the previous owners of the acquiree, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the previous owners of the acquiree and equity instruments that were issued by the Company. In addition, the consideration transferred includes the fair value of any contingent consideration. After the acquisition date, the Group recognizes changes in the fair value of contingent consideration classified as a financial liability in profit or loss, whereas contingent consideration classified as an equity instrument is not remeasured.

 

  

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

A.        Basis of consolidation (cont'd)

 

(1)        Business combinations (cont'd)

 

Costs associated with the acquisitions that were incurred by the acquirer in the business combination such as: finder's fees, advisory, legal, valuation and other professional or consulting fees are expensed in the period the services are received.

 

If share-based payment awards (replacement awards) are required to be exchanged for awards held by the acquiree's employees (acquiree's awards) and relate to past services, then all or a portion of the amount of the acquirer's replacement awards is included in measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination. This determination is based on the market-based value of the replacement awards compared with the market-based value of the acquiree's awards and the extent to which the replacement awards relate to past and/or future service. The unvested portion of the replacement award that is attributed to post-acquisition services is recognized as a compensation cost following the business combination. If share-based payment awards (replacement awards) are required to be exchanged for awards held by the acquiree's employees (acquiree's awards) and relate to past services, then all or a portion of the amount of the acquirer's replacement awards is included in measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination. This determination is based on the market-based value of the replacement awards compared with the market-based value of the acquiree's awards and the extent to which the replacement awards relate to past and/or future service. The unvested portion of the replacement award that is attributed to post-acquisition services is recognized as a compensation cost following the business combination.

 

(2)        Subsidiaries

 

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commenced.

 

(3)        Transactions eliminated on consolidation

 

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

 

 

B.        Foreign currency transactions

 

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated in to the functional currency at the exchange rate on that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate as of the end of the year.

 

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate on the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction.

 

   

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

C.        Financial instruments

 

(1)        Non-derivative financial assets

 

Initial recognition of financial assets

The Group initially recognizes loans and receivables on the date that they are created. All other financial assets acquired, are recognized initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument, meaning on the date the Group undertook to purchase or sell the asset. Non-derivative financial instruments comprise investments, inter alia, in money market funds, trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents.

 

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights of the Group to the cash flows from an asset expire, or the Group transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on a financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred.

 

Ordinary course of business sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade date, meaning on the date the Group undertook to sell an asset.

 

Classification of financial assets into categories and the accounting for each category

The Group classifies its financial assets according to the following categories:

 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

A financial asset is classified at fair value through profit or loss when it is held for trading purposes.

 

Loans and Receivables

Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Receivables comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables.

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash balances available for immediate use and demand deposits. Cash equivalents include short-term highly liquid investments (with original maturities of three months or less) that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and are exposed to insignificant risks of change in value. 

 

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

C.        Financial instruments (cont'd)

 

(2)        Non-derivative financial liabilities

 

Non-derivative financial liabilities include trade and other payables.

 

Initial recognition of financial liabilities

The Group initially recognizes all financial liabilities on the trade date on which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

 

Financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value minus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

 

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation of the Group, as specified in the agreement, expires or when it is discharged or cancelled.

 

Offset of financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

 

(3)        Share capital

 

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of ordinary shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

 

 

D.        Property, plant and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on all property, plant and equipment at rates calculated to write each asset down to its residual value (assumed to be nil), using the straight line method, over its expected useful life as follows:

 

 

Years

Computers and other technological equipment

3

Office furniture and equipment

6-17

Leasehold improvements

Mainly 10

Motor vehicles

6.66

 

An asset is depreciated from the date it is ready for use, meaning the date it reaches the location and condition required for it to operate in the manner intended by management.

 

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting year and adjusted if appropriate.

 

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

E.         Intangible assets

 

(1)        Software development

 

Costs that are directly associated with the development of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Group are recognized as intangible assets when all the criteria in IAS 38 are met.

Development costs are capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefit will result from the project and the following criteria are met:

 

•     the technical feasibility of the product has been ascertained;

•     adequate technical, financial and other resources are available to complete and sell or use the intangible asset;

•     the Group can demonstrate how the intangible asset will generate future economic benefits and the ability to use or sell the intangible asset can be demonstrated;

•     it is the intention of management to complete the intangible asset and use it or sell it; and

•     the development costs can be measured reliably.

 

In subsequent periods, these costs are amortized over the useful economic life of the asset.

 

Where these criteria are not met development costs are charged to the statement of comprehensive income as incurred.

 

The estimated useful lives of developed software is three years.

 

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting year and adjusted if appropriate.

 

(2)        Acquired software

 

Acquired software licenses are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software licenses. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives (3-5 years) using the straight line method. Costs associated with maintaining software programs are recognized as an expense as incurred.

 

(3)        Goodwill

 

Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries is presented as part of intangible assets. For information on measurement of goodwill at initial recognition, see Note 3 A(1).

 

In subsequent periods goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The Group has identified its entire operation as a single cash generating unit (CGU). As of 31 December 2015 and 2014, the CGU's recoverable amount was based on the fair value of the Company's quoted share price (level 1). According to management assessment, no impairment in respect to goodwill has been recorded.

 

(4)        Other intangible assets

 

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group, which have finite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

 

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

E.         Intangible assets (cont'd)

 

(5)        Amortization

 

Amortization is a systematic allocation of the amortizable amount of an intangible asset over its useful life. The amortizable amount is the cost of the asset less its accumulated residual value.

 

Internally generated intangible assets, such as software development costs, are not systematically amortized as long as they are not available for use, i.e. they are not yet on site or in working condition for their intended use. Goodwill is not systematically amortized as well, but is tested for impairment at least once a year.

 

The Group examines the amortization methods, useful life and accumulated residual values of its intangible assets at least once a year (usually at the end of each reporting period) in order to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support the decision that the intangible asset has an indefinite useful life.

 

Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets from the date they are available for use, since this method most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in each asset.

 

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

 

-          Trademarks                                             5 years

-          Software (developed and acquired)           3-5 years

-          Customer relationships                             5 years

-          Technology                                              5 years

 

 

F.         Impairment of financial assets

 

A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is tested for impairment when objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.

 

The Group considers evidence of trade receivables and other receivables at a specific asset level.

Losses are recognized in profit or loss and reflected in a provision for loss against the balance of the receivable.

 

 

G.        Impairment of non-financial assets

 

Non-financial assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which an asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units).

Non-financial assets that were subject to impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment recognized in respect thereof at each statement of financial position date.

 

  

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

H.        Employee benefits

 

(1)        Post-employment benefits

 

The Group's main post-employment benefit plan is under section 14 to the Severance Pay Law ("Section 14"), which is accounted for as a defined contribution plan. In addition, for certain employees, the Group has an additional immaterial plan that is accounted for as a defined benefit plan. These plans are usually financed by deposits with insurance companies or with funds managed by a trustee.

 

(a)        Defined contribution plans

 

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income in the periods during which related services are rendered by employees.

 

According to Section 14 the payment of monthly deposits by a company into recognized severance and pension funds or insurance policies releases it from any additional severance obligation to the employees that have entered into agreements with the company pursuant to such Section 14. The Company has entered into agreements with a majority of its employees in order to implement Section 14. Therefore, the payment of monthly deposits by the Company into recognized severance and pension funds or insurance policies releases it from any additional severance obligation to those employees that have entered into such agreements and therefore the Company incurs no additional liability with respect to such employees.

 

(b)        Defined benefit plans

 

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Group's net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The Group determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the then-net defined benefit liability (asset).

 

(2)        Short-term benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided or upon the actual absence of the employee when the benefit is not accumulated (such as maternity leave).

 

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 as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

 

The employee benefits are classified, for measurement purposes, as short-term benefits or as other long-term benefits depending on when the Group expects the benefits to be wholly settled.

 

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

H.        Employee benefits (cont'd)

 

(3)        Share-based payment transactions

The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognized as a salary expense unless it is eligible for capitalization under IAS 38 (see Note 3E.1), with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that an employee becomes unconditionally entitled to an award. The amount recognized as an expense in respect of share-based payment awards that are conditional upon meeting service vesting conditions, is adjusted to reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest.

 

 

I.          Revenue recognition

 

The Group earns its revenue from providing online advertising services. The Company's business is based on optimizing real time trading of digital advertising between buyers and sellers.

 

The revenue is comprised of different pricing schemes such as Cost per Mil Impression (CPM) and performance based metrics that include Cost per Click (CPC) and Cost per Action (CPA) options.

 

Revenue from advertising services is recognized by multiplying an agreed amount per mil impression/click/ action with the volumes of these units delivered.

 

 

J.         Classification of expenses

 

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs that are directly attributable to revenue generated by the Company. These amounts are primarily based on the revenue share arrangements with audience and content partners.

 

Research and development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel responsible for the research and development of new and existing products and services. Where required, development expenditures are capitalized in accordance with the Company's standard internal capitalized development policy in accordance with IAS 38 (also see Note 3E). All research costs are expensed when incurred.

 

Selling and marketing

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel engaged in customer service, sales, and sales support functions, as well as advertising and promotional expenditures.

 

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

J.         Classification of expenses (cont'd)

 

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel and facilities, and include costs related to the Company's facilities, finance, human resources, information technology, and legal organizations, and fees for professional services. Professional services are principally comprised of outside legal, and information technology consulting and outsourcing services that are not directly related to other operational expenses.

 

 

K.        Financing income and expenses

 

Financing income comprises interest income on funds invested, changes in the fair value of financial assets held for trading and foreign currency gains. Interest income is recognized as it accrues using the effective interest method.

 

Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss also include income from interest.

 

Foreign currency gains and losses on financial assets and financial liabilities are reported on a net basis as either financing income or financing expenses depending on whether foreign currency movements are in a net gain or net loss position.

 

 

L.         Income tax expense

 

Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income except to the extent that they relate to a business combination.

 

Current taxes

Current tax is the expected tax payable (or receivable) on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

 

Deferred taxes

Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

 

Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences:

•           The initial recognition of goodwill; and

•           Differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent it is probable that they will not   reverse in the foreseeable future, either by way of selling the investment or by way of distributing taxable dividends in respect of the investment.

 

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

 

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

L.         Income tax expense (cont'd)

 

A deferred tax asset is recognized for tax benefits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

 

Offset of deferred tax assets and liabilities

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority.

 

 

M.       Earnings per share

 

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its 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 outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which mainly comprise of share options granted to employees and certain equity instruments resulting from business combination transactions.

 

 

N.        Dividends

 

Dividend distribution to the Group's owners is recognized as a liability in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position on the date on which the dividends are approved by the Group's Board of Directors.

 

 

O.        Leases

 

The Group's leases are classified as operating leases, and the leased assets are not recognized on the Group's statement of financial position. Payments made under operating leases, other than conditional lease payments, are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Minimum lease payments made under operating leases are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

  

 

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

P.         New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

 

IFRS 9 (2014), Financial Instruments

 

A final version of the standard, which includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, and a new model for measuring impairment of financial assets. In accordance with IFRS 9 (2014), there are three principal categories for measuring financial assets: amortized cost, fair value through profit and loss and fair value through other comprehensive income. The basis of classification for debt instruments is the entity's business model for managing financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. Investments in equity instruments will be measured at fair value through profit and loss (unless the entity elected at initial recognition to present fair value changes in other comprehensive income).

 

IFRS 9 (2014) requires that changes in fair value of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss that are attributable to changes in its credit risk, should usually be recognized in other comprehensive income.

 

IFRS 9 (2014) is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early adoption being permitted. It will be applied retrospectively with some exemptions.

 

The Group has not yet commenced examining the effects of adopting IFRS 9 (2014) on the financial statements.

 

IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

 

IFRS 15 replaces the current guidance regarding recognition of revenues and presents a new model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 provides two approaches for recognizing revenue: at a point in time or over time. The model includes five steps for analyzing transactions so as to determine when to recognize revenue and at what amount. Furthermore, IFRS 15 provides new and more extensive disclosure requirements than those that exist under current guidance.

 

IFRS 15 is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and earlier application is permitted. IFRS 15 includes various alternative transitional provisions, so that companies can choose between one of the following alternatives at initial application: full retrospective application, full retrospective application with practical expedients, or application as from the mandatory effective date, with an adjustment to the balance of retained earnings at that date in respect of transactions that are not yet complete.

 

The Group has not yet commenced examining the effects of adopting IFRS 15 on the financial statements.

 

IFRS 16, Leases

 

The standard replaces International Accounting Standard 17 - Leases (IAS 17) and its related interpretations. The standard's instructions annul the existing requirement from lessees to classify leases as operating or finance leases. Instead of this, for lessees, the new standard presents a unified model for the accounting treatment of all leases according to which the lessee has to recognize an asset and liability in respect of the lease in its financial statements. Similarly, the standard determines new and expanded disclosure requirements from those required at present.

  

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd)

 

P.         New standards and interpretations not yet adopted (cont'd)

 

IFRS 16, Leases (cont'd)

 

The standard will become effective for annual periods as of January 1, 2019, with the possibility of early adoption, so long as the company has also early adopted IFRS 15 - Revenue from contracts with customers. The standard includes a number of alternatives for the implementation of transitional provisions, so that companies can choose one of the following alternatives at the implementation date: full retrospective implementation or implementation from the effective date while adjusting the balance of retained earnings at that date.

 

The Group has not yet commenced examining the effects of IFRS 16 on the financial statements.

 

 

 

Note 4 - Income Tax

 

A.        Details regarding the tax environment of the Group

 

(1)        Corporate tax rate

 

(a)        Presented hereunder are the tax rates relevant to the group in the years 2014-2015:

2014 - 26.5%

2015 - 26.5%

 

On 5 January 2016 the Israeli Parliament passed the Law for Amendment of the Israeli Tax Ordinance (Amendment 216), by which, the corporate income tax rate would be reduced by 1.5% to 25% as of 2016 and thereafter.

 

(b)        According to various amendments to the Income Tax Ordinance (New Version) - 1961 (hereinafter - "the Ordinance"), IFRS shall not apply when determining the taxable income for the 2007 through 2013, tax years even if IFRS was applied when preparing the financial statements.

 

(2)        Benefits under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments

 

Amendment to the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments - 1959

 

On 29 December 2010 the Israeli Parliament approved the Economic Policy Law for 2011-2012, which includes an amendment to the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments - 1959 (the "Amendment"). The Amendment is effective from 1 January 2011 and its provisions apply to preferred income derived or accrued in 2011 and thereafter by a preferred company, per the definition of these terms in the Amendment.

 

 

Note 4 - Income Tax (cont'd)

 

A.        Details regarding the tax environment of the Group (cont'd)

 

(2)        Benefits under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments (cont'd)

 

Amendment to the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments - 1959 (cont'd)

 

A preferred enterprise track was introduced, which mainly provides a uniform and reduced tax rate for all the company's income entitled to benefits, such as: in the 2011-2012 tax years - a tax rate of 10% for Development Area A and of 15% for the rest of the country, in the 2013-2014 tax years - a tax rate of 7% for Development Area A and of 12.5% for the rest of the country, and as from the 2015 tax year - 6% for Development Area A and 12% for the rest of the country. On August 5, 2013 the Knesset passed the Law for Changes in National Priorities (Legislative Amendments for Achieving Budget Objectives in the Years 2013 and 2014) - 2013, which cancelled the planned tax reduction so that as from the 2014 tax year the tax rate on preferred income will be 9% for Development Area A and 16% for the rest of the country.

 

During 2013, the Company obtained a tax ruling (the "Ruling") from the Israeli Tax Authorities (the "ITA"), effective for years 2012 - 2016, which determines that the Company owns an industrial enterprise as defined in the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments - 1959.

Based on the Ruling, income derived from the industrial enterprise, which is considered "Preferred Income", should be eligible for tax benefits during the aforementioned period (Non A development area), subject to the limitations set forth in the Ruling. However, the Ruling has determined that income which is not considered part of the Company's "Preferred Income" shall not be entitled to the "Preferred Income" tax benefits and will be subject to the standard Israeli corporate tax rate.

 

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the asset and liability method based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities under the applicable tax laws. Deferred taxes are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to temporary differences when they are expected to be reversed, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Each option is exercisable into one share of NIS 0.01 par value.

The options granted on 2014 and 2015 have a vesting period of two to four years and will expire between four to ten years from grant date.

 

(1)        In June 2015, the Board of the Company approved a change in the exercise price and vesting terms relating to 2,861,000 options for ordinary shares held by certain employees under the Plan (the "Amended Options"). The Amended Options were originally granted as follows:

 

·    1,015,000 were granted on 1 February 2014 exercisable from 1 February 2016 at a price of USD 2.28 each with an expiry date of 1 February 2024

·    1,846,000 were granted on 24 February 2015 with an exercise price of GBP 1.3232, with the same gradual four-year vesting period as that described above for the New Options (with the exercise period commencing on the second anniversary of 24 February 2015) and an expiry date of 24 February 2020

 

The Amended Options are exercisable at a price of 90 pence each. The options granted on 1 February 2014 will now vest and become exercisable on 30 June 2017, while the expiration date remains on 1 February 2024. The vesting and exercise periods of the options granted on 24 February 2015 remain unchanged. The incremental fair value (amounting to USD 451 thousand) is recognized over the remaining vesting period.

C.        Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, the CPI, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

 

Linkage and foreign currency risks

 

Currency risk

The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales and purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currency of the Group, the US dollar (USD). The principal currencies in which these transactions are denominated are NIS, Euro and GBP.

At any point in time, the Group aims to match the amounts of its assets and liabilities in the same currency in order to hedge the exposure to changes in currency.

Furthermore, a major portion of the employees' salaries, paid in NIS consists of bonuses linked to the functional currency of the Group, the USD. This provides an economic hedge without derivatives being entered into and without the application of hedge accounting.

In respect of other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Group ensures that its net exposure is kept to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address short-term imbalances.

B.        Acquisition of subsidiaries

 

Business combination during the current period - AreaOne Ltd.

 

On 7 September 2015 (hereinafter - the Acquisition Date) the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding share capital of AreaOne. AreaOne is a leading mobile user acquisition platform for brands and applications' developers to engage valuable mobile users through social media networks.

 

Upon the closing of the transaction, the Company paid USD 9,288 thousand in cash and USD 2 million, satisfied by the allotment of 2,088,337 newly issued ordinary shares of the Company, calculated based on 61 pence per share, following the receipt by AreaOne of a tax ruling from the Israeli tax authority (see Note 18). Those shares are held in escrow, in the name of ESOP Management & Trust Services Ltd., the escrow agent, for 30 months. In addition, the consideration includes two contingent deferred payments - payable at 12 months and 24 months after the closing of the transaction - each consist of up to USD 1 million in cash and up to USD 1.5 million satisfied by the allotment of 3,132,504 New Ordinary Shares calculated based on 61 pence per share, are payable subject to compliance with certain performance criteria. The Company has an option through 30 June 2016 to substitute the 2,088,337 ordinary shares held in escrow with a USD 2 million cash payment, and to substitute the ordinary shares included in the contingent deferred payments with cash.

 

During 2015 AreaOne contributed negatively to the Group's profit with a loss of USD 592 thousand, and contributed USD 3,409 thousand to the Group's revenue (excluding fair value adjustments impact recognized upon acquisition). If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015, the combined consolidated revenue would have been USD 85,019 thousand and consolidated profit for the year would have been USD 1,110 thousand. In determining these amounts, fair value adjustments, determined provisionally, that arose on the Acquisition Date would have been considered as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015.

 

The following summarizes the major classes of consideration transferred, and the recognized amounts of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Acquisition Date:
