Operational Review

Total revenue increased by 19% to £51.3m, however this includes the discontinued operations of the business. Organic revenue growth from in the core business ('continuing operations') remained strong at 15%, taking revenue to £42.5m from £36.9m in 2018. This was as a direct consequence of higher value new client wins, a strong level of customer sign ups, ability to continually monetise advanced features and additional marketing channels adopted by existing clients. This was evident by revenues from enhanced functionality and monthly recurring licence fees now achieving £12.4m, a significant increase of 39%.

We have also seen substantial progress in the international markets, with revenues outside of the UK market, excluding discontinued operations, growing by 28% and now representing 29% of group revenues. The focus on international revenues continues as international expansion remains a core pillar in our overall organic growth strategy and the Group continues to invest in key geographies.

During the year, dotdigital engagement cloud's average revenue per user (ARPU) rose by 14% from £845 per month to £966 per month. This was the result of continued focus on mid-market and enterprise clients plus customers that use the Magento integration, who on average spend over £1,500 per month. Overall the volume of messages sent out by the platform increased by 11% to 16.0bn from 14.4bn in 2018, reflecting the change in demographic and increasing both the recurring revenue growth and ARPU. 86% of group revenues are now recurring, of which 90% is contracted giving good visibility on revenues.

The cash position of the Group, £19.3m at year end, remains strong with no significant debt in the business, thereby allowing us to make strategic decisions to deploy cash where we see increased returns from either further investing in our organic growth pillars or earnings enhancing acquisitions.

Market

The marketing automation market is set to expand to $25.1bn by 2023 according to Forrester Research. Currently, email marketing automation represents c.30% of the global market, closely followed by other channels such as mobile application marketing and social media marketing. According to the Forrester Research, email marketing is anticipated to dominate the marketing automation market. Due to the increased adoptions of digitalisation and the channel's status as a relatively low cost but effective marketing method.

North America, Europe and Asia is expected to lead the way with the fastest growth forecasted to be in these markets. The Group currently has 3 separate hubs that mirror each market, with a user interface translated into multiple languages and a scalable infrastructure that has in-region data processing and storage to mirror these growth areas. The Board believes the Group is therefore well placed to capture market shares in these areas.

Geographic Progress

EMEA

EMEA saw revenue growth for continued operations of 10% in the year from £30.4m to £33.5m. We still see strong double-digit growth from the region despite the ongoing impact of GDPR in the first half of the financial year. Message volume growth has also moved closer to the levels seen prior to the introduction of the new legislation in Europe.

The continued focus on the Nordics and Benelux region has resulted in stronger partnerships and a growing revenue stream in the area. Brand awareness continues to be achieved in the market within the e-commerce space through integrations into our partners' platforms. We have begun to investigate hiring local people in the region in addition to opening an office in the Netherlands to support our customers and partners in these geographies. The Benelux market has seen the strongest revenue growth outside of the UK as our strategic partners are also seeing their strongest growth.

The majority of Comapi's clients operate within the UK market and following the decision that both Dynmark and Donky businesses were non-core to the Group's operations, this business will be wound down. A small team now remains in place to support the current clients and partners.

North America

Our North American region revenue showed strong organic growth. Revenue grew 27% to $9.0m from $7.1m following strong collaborations with our strategic partners and system integrators and further raising brand awareness in the market, which has significantly enhanced this growth. Our aim to support our customers and partners in region was strengthened through the increased investment in people and through the new offices opened on both the West and East Coast to support their needs. In H2, the region also saw deeper partnerships relations and additional investment via marketing, in our Microsoft Dynamics Connector, which enabled us to increase the addressable market in North America. In order to scale up the hub in-region we have accelerated our search for a General Manager to provide both local experienced leadership and quicker decision making.

APAC

The APAC region saw the fastest growth of 83%, ahead of management expectation, albeit from a smaller base, growing from AUS$2.1m to AUS$3.8m. This was due to higher order values and customer numbers won in the year. Traction continues to be gained in the Far East through our presence in Singapore which is still a relatively new market for the Group. The addition of mobile functionality added to our core offering has helped increase the pipeline for these services, which typically tend to be a more mobile-first approach. We continue to enhance our relationships with the channel partners in region thereby assisting us in improving sales conversion rates.

Product innovation

It is our ambition to be the world's best data-driven marketing and customer engagement platform and we are therefore continually investing in developing new technology. We plan on scaling the platform and adding new features across all regions.

Our concentration remains on e-commerce companies which currently represents 50% of our customer base. During the year we have enhanced our commerce intelligence functionality though the introduction of RFM (Recency, Frequency and Monetary) reporting, together with automated segments, which are both easy to use and provide increased value and insights around their data in the platform. Further improvements were also made to Artificial Intelligence ("AI") and Machine Learning ("ML") for our product recommendations. In addition, an affinity finder solution has been built that will be launching soon, as part of our commitment to infuse the platform with AI and ML. The key differentiator with our algorithms is that it uses the customer's data to enhance the return on investment as opposed to having a generic algorithm which may not work.

Post the addition of an integrated cross-channel messaging service, we have made notable progress in customers using more than one channel in their marketing campaigns. New channels outside of email now include push messaging, chat, SMS, RCS (Rich Communication Service) plus other messaging services such as Facebook Messenger, Twitter DM and WhatsApp to name but a few.

By using this enhanced offering, our customers can now use the data they import into the platform to stay relevant and personalise thereby leading them to target the right person, with the right message, at the right time, through the right channels.

Recurring revenue from enhanced product functionality and upgrades, taken by both our existing and new customers, has increased by 39% compared with the same period last year. This shows that not only is the platform adoption increasing but marketeers are placing greater value in data and are becoming more sophisticated in their marketing strategies. We are therefore confident that we will continue to see an increase in the adoption of what we have built to date, including the new innovative features we are adding. The strongest adoption was the use of templates of drip programs to automate customers' marketing.

Therefore, we expect to see this increasing as we continue to monetise our development efforts and place greater value in the functionality. Enhanced product functionality now represents 34% (2018: 28%) of the recurring group revenues.

Strategic partnerships

Revenue from customers using our Magento integration grew 27% from £9.3m to £11.8m and brand awareness remains strong in this space. All new customers Magento adds to their own platform ships with dotdigital Engagement Cloud pre-installed, and all that is needed is to sign a contract with dotdigital to get started. As a result of our deep relationship with Magento we work together on a joint marketing strategy. Sign-up of clients across all regions remains strong with ARPU increasing from our clients, and this now stands at approximately £1,500 per month. In the year we added 219 customers bringing the total to 664 using the integration.

Our partnership with Shopify has continued to strengthen by way of building on our value proposition for e-commerce merchants through connecting into Shopify Flow. This allows customers of Shopify to seamlessly create, segment and use the engagement cloud messaging channels to create a personalised and targeted experience for their merchant's customer. This has also allowed a seamless integration of process automation between e-commerce and marketing platforms. We now have 56 clients using the Shopify connector and expect this to increase as we go into the new year.

Big Commerce in the period also named us as a global elite partner and work is ongoing in building this relationship and a joint go-to-market strategy. This should enable us to increase our addressable market across all regions.

As part of our commitment to our B2B marketing customers, we have continued to invest in our dedicated platform and channel management resource to build on our strategic relationship with Microsoft as we look to integrate our product in to Microsoft Dynamics. We have seen our revenues from the Dynamics connector grow by 10% to £3.9m with ARPUs remaining over £1,000 per month.

People

This year we focused on creating a management structure that sets the foundations for future growth as the business expands internationally. We have upskilled the senior management team as well as creating regional leaders for local decision making and control. This has enabled us to increase management bandwidth and develop new skills whilst still maintaining the culture within our business.

We have invested in sales, customer success, marketing and product development in the year, thus supporting our product innovation goals, but also allowing us to further develop our global brand awareness. The largest investment in people was made in our international hubs where we continue to see success in providing our customers with a scalable business model and support the overall business growth.

We firmly believe our people are crucially important to our business and its future; further investment will be made in the training and development of all our employees coupled with onboarding the new headcount to get up to speed as quickly as possible.

Acquisitions

In the year we completed the full integration of Comapi, however the decision was made to discontinue both the Dynmark and Donky business units. The acquisition provided the Group with:

· Extending the group's marketing automation platform to provide an industry-leading solution offering fully integrated cross-channel and conversational commerce support to marketers

· Enabling the group to deliver aligned conversational messaging across channels including email, mobile push, SMS, Facebook messenger, Apple business messenger, Twitter and live chat

· Enabling the customers to meet consumer demand for a more personalised communication experience and

· Positioning us as the most advanced platform on the market and making dotdigital more relevant in the strategic mobile first Asian market.

We will continue to investigate earnings enhancing opportunities beyond organic growth but have very strict value enhancing criteria to finding these strategic acquisitions. The areas we would consider making an acquisition in, are:

1) Companies that can help us expand into new geographic markets or allow us to grow faster in a market that we currently operate within

2) Companies that have relevant adjacent technology; and

3) Companies that can add new functionality (e.g. artificial intelligence) that will add value to our customer base within the mid- and small enterprise market.

Financial review

Revenues

The Group achieved revenue growth of 19% (15% from continuing operations; 2018: 15%), which delivered record overall revenues of £51.3m (£42.5m from continuing operations; 2018: £36.9m). The quality of the revenue growth is evidenced by continued stable recurring revenues of 86% (2018: 85%). The Group continued to grow outside of the UK with international revenues now accounting for 29% of the continuing operations' total.

Business model

The Group generates the majority of its revenues from annual message plans across multiple channels, which are recognised equally over the life of the contract. In addition, we sell upgrade packages to customers allowing them to use additional modules and features of our platform. For more sophisticated customers we offer customised functionality and integrations so that they can maximise the use of their customer data. These professional services are recognised as revenue as the work is performed and completed.

Gross margin

The gross margin for the period for continuing operations was 90%, (2018: 87%). We continue to see the value in both direct and partnership models of selling in our international regions, and hence continue to invest in building long-term annuity revenues.

Operating expenses

Adjusted operating profit from continuing operations grew by 25% from £9.4m to £11.8m. Part of this growth was due to the margin improvement achieved via our cloud infrastructure as we see the benefits of scaling. Investments made previously within product development, sales and marketing also continue to pay off.

Operating expenses from continuing operations as a percentage of revenues remained at 62%, reflecting the growth in revenue combined with the careful investment in areas which provided the best rate of return. dotdigital continues to invest in people, particularly within the areas of development, sales and marketing, with regional offices seeing the largest investment. This investment enables us to continue enhancing and adding to the product suite.

Balance sheet

There was strong cash management in the year with cash generated from continuing operations of £12.5m (2018: £11.2m). The cash balance at the end of the period was £19.3m (2018: £15.0m). The Group continues to be debt free and maintains a healthy balance sheet. A combination of a highly efficient cash collection process and an incentivisation push to move more customers onto Direct Debit and automated credit card collection helped with the year-end position.

Trade receivables have only grown by 6% in the year reflecting revenue growth and good cash management. Overall receivables have declined 6% as a result of a decrease in prepayments due to better pricing achieved for the hybrid cloud infrastructure.

The Group continues to invest heavily in the engagement cloud to increase functionality around cross-channel messaging, enhance the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning capabilities of the platform and improve connectors to e-commerce and CRM platforms to allow our customers to make the most of their data and provide excellent customer engagement. This continued investment is demonstrated by the increase in product development to £5.5m from £4.4m in 2018.

Goodwill

£9.1m of Goodwill reflects the acquisition of Comapi in 2017/18, for a cash consideration of £10.7m. Identifiable intangible assets included £1.2m of technology and £1.2m of customer relationships. The latter of these has been impaired as a result of discontinuing this part of the business and hence reducing the expected lifetime of the contracts from nine years to three years.

Tax

Profitability from continuing operations continues to grow, however, this is not reflected within the tax charge, which is now £0.06m (2018: £0.3m) with an effective tax rate of 0.5%, the principal reason for the continuation of the low rate being enhanced R&D tax credits.

EPS

In the year the adjusted basic EPS from continuing operations increased by 33% to 3.93p (2018: 2.95p) and adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations increased to 3.88p (2018: 2.91p). The increase in adjusted EPS is driven by the increased profitability and the reduction in the effective tax rate to 0.5% from 2.8%.

Dividend policy

As announced last year, the Board conducted its review of its organic business plan for the following three years. This included evaluating the cash needs required for opportunities in organic growth to increase shareholder value and capital expenditure. The Board decided that it will continue to keep a progressive dividend in line with Group EBITDA growth. Therefore, subject to approval at the AGM in December 2019, the Board proposes that the Group will pay a final dividend of 0.67p per ordinary share (2018: 0.64p), subject to shareholder approval at the Company's AGM in December 2019. Further detail on the dividend timetable can be found in note 10 below.

Outlook

The Group has a strong position in changing markets and the Board remains confident about the future growth prospects, assuming that there is no adverse change in market conditions and delivery against the planned strategy.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

dotdigital Group Plc ("dotdigital") is a company incorporated in England and Wales and quoted on the AIM market. The address of the registered office is disclosed on the inside back cover of the financial statements. The principal activity of the Group is described on page 38.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union (IFRSs as adopted by the EU) and those parts of Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The Group has applied all accounting standards and interpretations issued by the International Accountancy Standards Board and International Accounting Interpretations Committee effective at the time of preparing the financial statements.

New and amended standards adopted by the Company

The Group has applied IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers for the first time for the period commencing 1 July 2018.

Impact of initial application of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

In the current year, the Group has applied IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (as revised in July 2014) and the related consequential amendments to other IFRS Standards that are effective for an annual period that begins on or after 1 January 2018. IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, which replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, impacts the classification and measurement of the Group's financial instruments and requires certain additional disclosures. The transition provisions of IFRS 9 allow an entity not to restate comparatives.

IFRS 9 introduced new requirements for:

1. The classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities,

2. Impairment of financial assets, and

3. General hedge accounting.

IFRS 9 has not had a material impact in the presentation of the accounts of the Group.

Impact of application of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In the current year, the Group has applied IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (as amended in April 2016) which is effective for an annual period that begins on or after 1 January 2018. IFRS 15 introduced a 5-step approach to revenue recognition. Far more prescriptive guidance has been added in IFRS 15 to deal with specific scenarios. The Group's accounting policies for its revenue streams are disclosed in detail in note 2 below. The Group has applied IFRS 15 in accordance with the modified retrospective transitional approach. In addition to providing more extensive disclosures for the Group's revenue transactions, the application of IFRS 15 has had an impact on the financial position and/or financial performance of the Group which is disclosed in note 33.

Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective

The following new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued, but are not effective for the financial year beginning 1 July 2018 and have not been early adopted. The full impact of their adoption has not yet been fully assessed; however, management do not expect the changes to have a material effect on the Financial Statements unless otherwise indicated:

Reference		Title	Summary	Application date of standard	Application date of Group

IAS 1 and IAS 8		Definition of material	Clarifies the definition of 'material' and align the definition used in the Conceptual Framework and the standards.	Periods beginning on or after 1 Jan 2020	1 July 2020
IAS 19		Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement	Amendments in Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement	Periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019	1 July 2019
IAS 28		Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures	Clarifies that an entity applies IFRS 9 Financial Instruments to long-term interests in an associate or joint venture that form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture but to which the equity method is not applied.	Periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019	1 July 2019
IFRS 9	Financial Instruments	Amendment regarding termination rights in order to allow measurement at amortised cost even in the case of negative compensation payments.	Periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019		1 July 2019
IFRS 3, IFRS 11, IAS 12 and IAS 23		Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2015-2017 Cycle	Annual improvements	Periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019	1 July 2019
IFRS 16	Leases	Original issue	Periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019		1 July 2019

New Standards and interpretations not yet adopted

IFRS 16 Leases was issued in January 2016 but is not mandatory for the year ending 30 June 2019 and has not been adopted early by the Group. As a consequence of this new standard, this will result in all leases being recognised on the balance sheet by lessees, as the distinction between operating and finance leases is removed. Thereby resulting in an asset and a financial liability to pay rentals being recognised on the Statement of Financial Position.

As at the reporting date, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of £5.4m (see note 22), which will be recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in the income statement. At the date of transition, being 1 July 2019, and in the year after transition, there will be an impact on the Group's consolidated income statement where the fixed rental expense (currently recognised within administrative expenses) is replaced by a depreciation charge and an interest expense. This will lead to a reduction in operating profit as a result of removing the operating lease expense net of the new leased asset depreciation charge. The Group expects to recognise right-of-use assets of approximately £5.5m and lease liabilities of £5.5m (after adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments recognised as at 30 June 2019). The Group expects a reduction in operating cost of approximately £1.1m with a corresponding increase in depreciation of £1.1m and an increase of £0.5m in finance costs, resulting in an overall reduction in profit after tax by approximately by £0.5m for the year ended 30 June 2020 as a result of adopting the new rules.

Changes in Accounting Policies and Disclosures

(a) New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The Group has applied any applicable new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations that are mandatory for the financial year beginning on or after 1 January 2018. However, none of them has a material impact on the Group's Consolidated Financial Statements.

(b) Impact of IFRS 15 - Revenue from contracts with customers

The Group's accounting policies for its revenue streams are disclosed in detail in note 2 below. The Group has applied IFRS 15 in accordance with the modified retrospective transitional approach. Apart from providing more extensive disclosures for the Group's revenue transactions, the application of IFRS 15 has not had a significant impact on the current financial position and/or financial performance of the Group. However, via the implementation of the modified retrospective transitional approach this did have a significant impact on the financial position of the Group. Further details can be seen in Note 33.

The financial statements are presented in sterling (£), rounded to the nearest thousand pounds.

Basis of consolidation

In the period ended 2009 the Company acquired via a share for share exchange the entire issued share capital of dotdigital EMEA Limited (previously dotmailer Limited), whose principal activity is that of providing SaaS via a leading cross-channel marketing automation platform and managed services to digital marketing professionals.

Under IFRS 3 'Business combinations' the dotdigital EMEA (previously dotmailer Limited) share exchange has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Although these consolidated financial statements have been issued in the name of the legal parent, the Company it represents in substance is a continuation of the financial information of the legal subsidiary, dotdigital EMEA (previously dotmailer Limited). The following accounting treatment has been applied in respect of the reverse acquisition:

- The assets and liabilities of the legal subsidiary, dotdigital EMEA Limited (previously dotmailer Limited), are recognised and measured in the consolidated financial statements at their pre-combination carrying amounts, without restatement to their fair value;

- The retained reserves recognised in the consolidated financial statements for the beginning of the prior period reflect the retained reserves of dotdigital EMEA Limited (previously dotmailer Limited) to 30 April 2008. However, in accordance with IFRS3 'Business combinations', the equity structure appearing in the consolidated financial statements reflects the equity structure of the legal parent dotdigital Group Plc, including the equity instruments issued under the share exchange to effect the business combination;

- A reverse acquisition reserve has been created to enable the presentation of a consolidated balance sheet which combines the equity structure of the legal parent with the non-statutory reserves of the legal subsidiary;

- Comparative numbers are prepared on the same basis.

The following accounting treatment has been applied in respect of the acquisition of dotdigital Group Plc:

- The assets and liabilities of dotdigital Group Plc are recognised and measured in the consolidated financial statements at their fair value at the date of acquisition.

- The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the date of acquisition, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group's share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement.

Subsidiaries

A subsidiary is an entity whose operating and financing policies are controlled by the Group. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control was transferred to the Group. Subsidiaries cease to be consolidated from

the date the Group no longer has control. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies have been eliminated on consolidation.

The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. In the statement of financial position, the acquiree's identifiable assets and liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date.

As a result of applying reverse acquisition accounting since 30 January 2009, the consolidated IFRS financial information of dotdigital Group Plc is a continuation of the financial information of dotdigital EMEA Limited

Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of services in the ordinary course of the Group's activities. Revenue is shown net of value added tax returns, rebates and discounts after eliminating sales within the Group.

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured and it is probable that the future economic benefits will flow to the entity. The Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.

The Group sells cross-channel marketing services to other businesses, and services are either provided on a usage basis or fixed price bespoke contract. All revenue is from contracts signed with new customers and upgrades and additional functional recurring revenue sold to existing contracted clients. Revenue from contracts is recognised under percentage of completion method based on a percentage of services performed to date as a percentage of the total services to be performed.

Professional services at no charge: The Group sells professional services to its customers and there are occasions when these services are provided at no cost as part of the contract sold. The services provided for no charge are recognised and accounted for as separate performance obligations when the service occurs. The amount allocated to the services is deducted from the contract value and the remainder of the contract value is spread evenly over the term of the contract.

Prepaid contracts: The Group sells 12-, 24- and 36-month contracts to its customers. This revenue is recognised monthly over the period of the contract. Where a customer prepays their contract, this is recognised over the period of the contract irrespective of materiality.

Term Contract billing: The Group raises the first invoice to its new customers when the service agreement is signed. Occasionally, the service does not start in the same month as when the service agreement is signed but is invoiced in the month where the service agreement is signed. The revenue is then recognised over the period of the contract irrespective of materiality.

Going concern

The Directors, at the time of approving the financial statements, have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Further detail is contained in the Directors' report.

Operating profit

Operating profit is stated after charging operating expenses but before finance costs.

Dividends

Final dividend distributions to the Company's shareholders are recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company's shareholders while interim dividends distributions are recognised in the period in which the dividends are declared and paid.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of the consideration over the fair values of the identifiable net tangible and intangible assets acquired and is allocated to cash generating units.

Under IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", goodwill arising on acquisitions is not subject to amortisation but is subject to annual impairment testing. Any impairment is recognised immediately in the income statement and not subsequently reversed.

Investments in subsidiaries

Investments are held as non-current assets at cost less any provision for impairment. Where the recoverable amount of the investment is less than the carrying amount, impairment is recognised.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are recorded as separately identifiable assets and recognised at historical cost less any accumulated amortisation. These assets are amortised over their useful economic lives of four to five years, with the charge included in administrative expenses in the income statement.

Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually. Impairment is measured by determining the recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit (CGU) which is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or

CGU. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs.

- Domain names

Acquired domain names are shown at historical cost. Domain names have a finite life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using straight-line method to allocate the cost of domain names over their useful lives of four years.

- Software

Acquired software and websites are shown at historical cost. They have a finite life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using straight-line method to allocate the cost of software and websites over their useful lives of four years.

- Product development

Product development expenditure is capitalised when it is considered that there is a commercially and technically viable product, the related expenditure is separately identifiable and there is a reasonable expectation that the related expenditure will be exceeded by future revenues. Following initial recognition, product developments are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The useful lives of these intangible assets are assessed to have a finite life of five years. Amortisation is charged on assets with finite lives, and until economic benefit can be received and recognised, this expense is taken to the income statement and useful lives are reviewed on an annual basis. Amortisation is charged from the point when the asset is available for use.

Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognised as an expense as incurred. Capitalised development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortised from the point at which they are ready for use on a straight-line basis over their useful life.

Costs incurred on development projects (relating to the design and testing of new or improved products) are recognised as intangible assets when the following criteria are fulfilled:

- It is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or resale;

- Management intends to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;

- There is an ability to use or sell the intangible asset;

- It can be demonstrated how the intangible asset will generate possible future economic benefits;

- Adequate technical, financial and other resource to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset are available; and

- The expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development can be reliably measured.

- Technology

Technology represents the cost that would be incurred to build the entire Comapi platform had the acquisition not occurred. The useful life of this intangible asset is assessed to have a finite life of 10 years. Amortisation is charged on assets with finite lives, and until economic benefit can be received and recognised, this expense is taken to the income statement and useful lives are reviewed on an annual basis. Amortisation is charged from the point when the asset is available for use.

- Customer relationships

This represents the value of high-value customer contracts within Comapi. The useful life of this intangible asset is assessed to have a finite life of three years. Amortisation is charged on assets with finite lives, and until economic benefit can be received and recognised, this expense is taken to the income statement and useful lives are reviewed on an annual basis. Amortisation is charged from the point when the asset is available for use.

Impairment of non-financial assets (excluding goodwill)

At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Property, plant and equipment

Tangible non-current assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent costs are included in the assets' carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits are associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. Depreciation is provided at the following rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life and is based on the cost of assets less residual value. Significant components of individual assets are assessed and if a component has a useful life that is different from the remainder of that asset, that component is depreciated separately.

Short leasehold: over the term of the lease

Fixtures and fittings: 25% on cost

Computer equipment: 25% on cost

The assets' residual values and useful economic lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each reporting date. An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable value.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within other (losses) or gains in the income statement.

Capital risk management

The Group manages its capital to ensure it is able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The capital structure of the Group consists of cash equivalents and equity attributable to the owners of the parent as disclosed in the statement of changes in equity.

Taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the income statement, to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Current tax

Current taxes are based on the results shown in the financial statements and are calculated according to local tax rules, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred taxation

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference will be utilised.

Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income asset is realised or deferred income tax liability is settled.

Operating leases

Rent payable under operating leases is not recognised in the Group's statement of financial position. Such costs are expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total expense, over the term of the lease.

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the statement of financial position when an entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. 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) 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 recognised immediately in the income statement.

- Financial assets

The Group's accounting policies for financial assets are set out below.

Management determine the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition depending on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired and, where allowed and appropriate, revaluate this designation at every reporting date.

All financial assets are recognised on a trade date when, and only when, the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of an instrument. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except for those finance assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss ('FVPL'), which are initially measured at fair value.

Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets at FVPL, 'amortised cost' or 'fair value through other comprehensive income' ('FVOCI'). The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of recognition.

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted.

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually, the Group recognises lifetime expected credit losses ('ECL') when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. However, if the credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECL.

Lifetime ECL represents the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECL represents the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.

On derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortised cost, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.

- Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group's cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows.

- Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at the lower of their original invoiced value and recoverable amount. A provision is made when it is likely that the balance will not be recovered in full. Terms on receivables range from 30 to 90 days.

- Financial liabilities and equity

Financial liabilities and equity are recognised on the Group's statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to a contractual provision of an instrument. Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs.

The Group's financial liabilities include trade payables and accrued liabilities.

- Trade payables

Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Terms on accounts payable range from 10 to 90 days.

Foreign currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the holding of foreign currencies will affect the Group's position as a result of a change in foreign currency exchange rates. The Group has no significant foreign currency risk as most of the Group's financial assets and liabilities are denominated in functional currencies of relevant Group entities. Accordingly, no quantitative market risk disclosures or sensitivity analysis for currency risks have been prepared.

The results and ﬁnancial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inﬂationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
(a) assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;
(b) income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
(c) all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Equity

Share capital is the amount subscribed for shares at their nominal value.

Share premium represents the excess of the amount subscribed for the share capital over the nominal value of the respective shares net of share issue expenses.

Retained earnings represent the cumulative earnings of the Group attributable to equity shareholders.

The reverse acquisition reserve relates to the adjustment required by accounting for the reverse acquisition in accordance with IFRS 3 'Business combinations'.

Other reserves relate to the charge for share-based payments in accordance with IFRS 2 'Share-based Payments'.

Share-based payments

For equity-settled share-based payment transactions the Group, in accordance with IFRS 2 'Share-Based Payments' measures their value, and the corresponding increase in equity, indirectly, by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. The fair value of those equity instruments is measured at the grant date using the trinomial method. The expense is apportioned over the vesting period of the financial instrument and is based on the number which is expected to vest and the fair value of those financial instruments at the date of grant. If the equity instruments granted vest immediately, the expense is recognised in full.

Functional currency translation

- Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (functional currency), which is mainly pounds sterling (£) and it is this currency the financial statements are presented in.

- Transaction and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at the year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement.

Employee benefit costs

The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable by the Group's pension scheme are charged to the income statement in the period in which they relate.

Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments as identified by the Board of Directors.

Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The Group makes certain estimates and assumptions regarding the future. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:

Judgements

(a) Capitalisation of development costs

Our business model is underpinned by our email and data-driven cross-channel marketing automation platform, dotmailer. Internal activities are continually undertaken to enhance and maintain the product in a bid to stay ahead of our competition. Management review the work of developers during the period and make the following judgements:

-Internal work relating to product development is reviewed against IAS 38 criteria and will be capitalised if management feel the criteria have been met.

-Internal work relating to the maintenance of existing products is expensed to the income statement and accounted for in payroll costs.

(b) Valuation of intangibles

The recognition of business combinations requires the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the net book value of assets acquired to be allocated to the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity. The Group makes judgements and estimates in relation to the fair value allocation of the purchase price. If any unallocated portion is positive it is recognised as goodwill and if negative, it is recognised in the consolidated income statement.

Judgement is required in determining the fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination and the fair value of the consideration payable. Calculating the fair values involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including expectations about future cash flows, discount rates and the lives of assets following purchase.

Estimates and assumptions

(a) Estimated impairment of goodwill

The Directors have carried out a detailed impairment review in respect of goodwill. The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired, by considering the net present value of discounted cash flow forecasts which have been discounted at 10%. The cash flow projections are based on the assumption that the Group can realise projected sales. A prudent approach has been applied with no residual value being factored

Further details on the estimates and assumptions we make in our annual impairment testing of goodwill are included in note 13 to the Financial Statements. At the period end, based on the assumptions, there was no indication of impairment to the carrying value of goodwill.

(b) Share-based compensation

Key management believe that there will not be only one acceptable choice for estimating the fair value of share-based payment arrangements. The judgements and estimates that management apply in determination of the share-based compensation are summarised as follows:

-Selection of a valuation model

-Making assumptions used in determining the variables used in a valuation model

i. expected life

ii. expected volatility

iii. expected dividend yield

iv. interest rate

Further detail on the estimates and assumptions we make in our share-based compensation are included in note 28 to the financial statements. The charge made to income statement for period is also disclosed here.

The Group depreciates short leasehold, fixtures and fittings, computer equipment and amortises computer software, internally generated development costs and domain names on a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives reflect the Directors' estimate of the periods that the Group intends to derive future economic benefits from the use of the Group's short leasehold fixtures and fittings, computer equipment, computer software, internally generated development costs and domain names.

(d) Bad debt provision

The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and grant credit based upon past payment history, financial condition and anticipated industry conditions. Customer payments are regularly monitored and the Group recognises lifetime expected credit losses ("ECL") when there has been a significant credit risk since initial recognition based upon specific situations and overall industry conditions. However, if the credit risk on the trade receivables has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month ECL. Hence the provision is maintained for potential credit losses based upon management's assessment of the expected collectability of all accounts receivable. In making this assessment, management take into consideration (i) any circumstances of which we are aware regarding a customer's inability to meet its financial obligations and (ii) our judgements as to potential prevailing economic conditions in the industry and their potential impact on the Group's customers.

3. SEGMENTAL REPORTING

dotdigital's single line of business remains the provision of data-driven cross-channel marketing automation. The chief operating decisionmaker considers the Group's segments to be by geographical location, this being EMEA, US and APAC operations and by business activity, this being core Engagement Cloud and CPaaS as shown below:

This will reduce the Company's future current tax charge accordingly.

UK deferred tax assets and liabilities have been recognised at the rate applying in the period they are expected to unwind.

9. PROFIT OF PARENT COMPANY

As permitted by Section 408 of the Companies Act 2006, the profit and loss account of the parent Company is not presented as part of these financial statements. The parent Company's loss for the financial year was £848,539 (2018: profit: £5,055,276)

Proposed dividend for the year end 30 June 2019 of 0.67p (2018: 0.64p) per share		1,997	1,907
The Board of the Company has proposed a final dividend of 0.67 pence per ordinary share (2018: 0.64 pence), subject to shareholder approval at the Company's AGM in December 2019. The Board confirms the timetable in respect of its final dividend. If approved at the AGM, it is intended that the dividend will be paid on 31 January 2020 to all shareholders on the register at close of business on 14 January 2020. The ex-dividend date will be 13 January 2020. As the proposed final dividend is subject to approval by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting, it has not been included as a liability in these financial statements.

11. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share data is based on the consolidated profit using and the weighted average number of shares in issue of the parent Company. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares adjusted to assume the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. Adjusted earnings per share is based on the consolidated profit deducting the acquisition related exceptional costs and share-based payment.

A number of non-IFRS adjusted profit measures are used in this annual report and financial statements. Adjusting items are excluded from our headline performance measures by virtue of their size and nature, in order to reflect management's view of the performance of the Group. Summarised below is a reconciliation between statutory results to adjusted results. The Group believes that alternative performance measures such as adjusted EBITDA are commonly reported by companies in the markets in which it competes and are widely used by investors in comparing performance on a consistent basis without regard to factors such as depreciation and amortisation, which can vary significantly depending upon accounting methods (particularly when acquisitions have occurred), or based on factors which do not reflect the underlying performance of the business. The adjusted profit after tax earnings measure is also used for the purpose of calculating adjusted earnings per share.

Reconciliations to earnings figures used in arriving at adjusted earnings per share are as follows:

On 21 November 2017, the Group acquired all the voting rights of Comapi for a cash consideration of £10.7m (which includes the payment of loans in Comapi) in exchange for all Comapi shares, with a potential consideration of £1.2m in share options for the management team, dependent on them achieving specific performance targets over a two-year post acquisition period and remaining with the business. Comapi's business is the provision of omni-channel messaging and cloud communication.

The Directors believe the acquisition will:

• Extend dotdigital's marketing automation platform to provide an industry-leading solution offering fully integrated cross-channel and conversational commerce support to marketers

• Enable dotdigital to deliver aligned conversational messaging across channels including email, mobile push, SMS, Facebook messenger, Apple business messenger, Twitter and live chat

• Enable dotdigital customers to meet consumer demand for a more personalised communication experience and

• Position dotdigital as the most advanced platform on the market and make dotdigital more relevant in the strategic mobile-first Asian market.

Goodwill of £9.1m was recognised on the acquisition, being the excess of the purchase consideration over the provisional fair value of net assets acquired as set out below and represents Comapi's platform, key customer relationships, employee knowledge and skills and the acceleration of bringing the technology to our platform rather than building in-house.

Goodwill is allocated to the Group's two cash generating units identified, that being Core and CPaaS. The goodwill addition in the year ended 30 June 2018 relates to the acquisition of Comapi and the goodwill at the beginning of the period relates to dotdigital.

Goodwill arising on business combinations is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if there are indications that goodwill may be impaired. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated, at acquisition, to cash generating units (CGUs) that are expected to benefit from that business combination.

The carrying amount of goodwill relates to the Group's two trading activities and business segments. This has been tested for impairment during the current period by comparison with the recoverable amounts of the CGU. Recoverable amounts for CGUs are based on the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell. The recoverable amounts of the CGU have been determined from value in use calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period. The key assumptions for the value in use calculations are those regarding discount rates, growth rates, and expected changes in margins. Management estimates discount rates using pre-tax rates that reflect the current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGUs. Changes in income and expenditure are based on past experience and expectations of the future changes in the market. The pre-tax discount rate used to calculate the value in use is 6.2% (2018: 10%). The valuations indicate sufficient headroom such that a reasonably possible change in key assumptions would not result in impairment of goodwill.

Development cost additions represents resources the Group has invested in the development of new, innovative and ground-breaking technology products for marketing professionals. This platform allows them to create, send and automate marketing campaigns. Following development of the products the Group intends to licence the use of the platform.

Technology represents the cost that would be incurred to build the entire Comapi platform had the acquisition not occurred. Customer relationships represent the value of high-value customer contracts within Comapi. At the year-end an impairment review was conducted on both whereby it was found that technology required no impairment due to the full integration of Comapi. However, customer relationships did result in an impairment due to a reduction in the anticipated lifetime of the contracts.

23. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's activities expose it to a number of financial risks that include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk and interest rate risk. These risks and the Group's policies for managing them have been applied consistently during the year and are set out below.

The Group holds no financial or other non-financial instruments other than those utilised in the working operations of the Group and that are listed in this note. It is the Group's policy not to trade in derivative contracts.

Principal financial instruments

The principal financial instruments used by the Group, from which financial instrument rate risk arises, are as follows:

-Trade receivables

-Cash and cash equivalents

-Trade and other payables

Financial instruments by category

The following table sets out the financial instruments as at the reporting date:

	Group		Company
	30.6.19	30.6.18	30.6.19	30.6.18
	£'000	£'000	£'000	£'000

Trade and other receivables	12,222	12,953	808	882
Bank balances	19,320	15,005	594	646

Financial liabilities
Trade payables	3,975	6,184	59	15
Amounts owed to group undertakings	-	-	3,932	1,913
Accrued liabilities and other payables	7,121	4,033	42	44

	11,096	10,217	4,033	1,972

The fair value of the financial assets and financial liabilities is equal to their carrying values. All financial assets are categorised as loans and receivables and all financial liabilities are categorised as financial liabilities at amortised costs.

General objectives, policies and processes

The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group's risk management objectives and policies and whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group's risk committee. The Board receives quarterly reports from the Risk Committee through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets.

The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Company's competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below:

Interest rate risk

The Group's interest rate risk arises from interest-bearing assets and liabilities. The Group has in place a policy of maximising finance income by ensuring that cash balances earn a market rate of interest offsetting where possible cash balances, and by forecasting and financing its working capital requirements. As at the reporting date the Group was not exposed to any movement in interest rates as it has no external borrowings and therefore is not exposed to interest rate risk. No sensitivity analysis has been prepared.

The Group's working capital requirements are managed through regular monitoring of the overall cash position and regularly updated cash flow forecasts to ensure there are sufficient funds available for its operations.

Liquidity risk

The Group's working capital requirements are managed through regular monitoring of the overall position and regularly updated cash flow forecasts to ensure there are funds available for its operations. Management forecasts indicate no new borrowing facilities will be required in the upcoming financial period.

Trade and other payables of £5,287,000 (2018: £7,233,000) are expected to mature in less than a year.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises principally from the Group's trade receivables, as there are no trade receivables within the Company, which comprise amounts due from customers. Prior to accepting new customers, a credit check is obtained. As at 30 June 2019 there were no significant debts past their due period which had not been provided for. The maturity of the Group's trade receivables is as follows:


	30.6.19	30.6.18
	£'000	£'000

0-30 days	6,408	6,172
30-60 days	521	720
More than 60 days	2,226	1,785

	9,155	8,677

The maturity of the Group's provision for impairment is as follows:

	30.6.19	30.6.18
	£'000	£'000

0-30 days	27	-
30-60 days	-	-
More than 60 days	972	403

	999	403

The movement in the provision for the impairment is as follows:

	30.6.19	30.6.18
	£'000	£'000

As at 1 July	403	502

Provision for impairment	621	40
Receivable written off in the year	(5)	(72)
Unused amount reversed	(20)	(67)

As at 30 June	999	403

The Group minimises its credit risk by profiling all new customers and monitoring existing customers of the Group for changes in their initial profile. The level of trade receivables older than the average collection period consisted of a value of £2,053,528 (2018: £2,041,922) of which £972,221 (2018: £402,985) was provided for. The Group felt that the remainder would be collected post year end as they were with long-standing relationships, and the risk of default is considered to be low and write-offs due to bad debts are extremely low. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, with the exposure spread over a large number of customers.

The credit risk on liquid funds is low as the counterparts are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating bodies. The majority of the Company's cash holdings are held at NatWest Bank which has a BBB+ credit rating.

The carrying value of both financial assets and liabilities approximates to fair value.

Capital policy

The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide optimal returns for shareholders and to maintain an efficient capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In doing so the Group's strategy is to maintain a capital structure commensurate with a strong credit rating and to retain appropriate levels of liquidity headroom to ensure financial stability and flexibility. To achieve this, the Group monitors key credit metrics, risk and fixed charge cover to maintain this position. In addition the Group ensures a combination of appropriate short-term and long-term liquidity headroom.

During the year the Group had a short-term loan balance of £nil (2018: £nil) and amounts payable over one year are nil (2018: £nil). The Group had a strong cash reserve to utilise for any short-term capital requirements that were needed by the Group.

The Group has continued to look for a further long-term investments or acquisitions and therefore, to maintain or realign the capital structure, the Group may adjust when dividends are paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or borrow from lenders.

Expected volatility was determined by calculating the historical volatility of the Group's share price from the date it listed to the grant date of the share option. The expected life used in the model is based on management's best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations.

The share options granted on 24 October 2018 were following the approval of the LTIP scheme at the AGM on 19 December 2017 and the end-to-end awards that were granted to key personnel.

32. POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS

33. IFRS 15 RESTATEMENT

The Group has adopted IFRS 15 as at 1 July 2018 and applied the modified retrospective approach. Comparatives for the 12 months ended 30 June 2018 have not been restated and the cumulative impact on adoption has been recognised as a decrease to retained earnings with the corresponding increase in current liabilities at 1 July 2018 as follows:

								01.07.18
								£'000s

Retained earnings:
Revenue								2,837
Deferred tax reserve								(539)

Total impact at 01 July 2018								2,298

Current liabilities:
Trade and other payables								2,837
Non-current liabilities:
Deferred tax								(539)

Total impact at 01 July 2018								2,298

IFRS 15 has had an impact on retained earnings as outlined below.

Professional services at no charge: The Group sells professional services to its customers and there are occasions when these services are provided at no cost as part of the contract sold. Historically, the Group did not recognise these services as they were fully discounted. Under IFRS 15, the services provided for no charge are recognised and accounted for as separate performance obligations when the service occurs. The amount allocated to the services is deducted from the contract value and the remainder of the contract value is spread evenly over the term of the contract. This revised treatment in respect of professional services provided at no cost has accelerated the recognition of revenue and resulted in lower deferred income at adoption on 1 July 2018.

Prepaid contracts: The Group sells 12-, 24- and 36- month contracts to its customers. This revenue is normally recognised monthly over the period of the contract. Historically there have been instances where a customer prepays their contract and due to its immaterial nature, the revenue was recognised at the date of invoice. Under IFRS 15, the prepaid contracts are recognised over the period of the contract irrespective of materiality.

Term Contract billing: The Group raises the first invoice to its new customers when the service agreement is signed. Occasionally, the service does not start in the same month as when the service agreement is signed. Historically, the Group has recognised the revenue in the month invoiced due to its immaterial nature. Under IFRS 15, the upfront billing is recognised over the period of the contract irrespective of materiality.
