Chairman's statement
The Company has made a great deal of progress over the last year in strengthening financial resources and positioning each of the two core businesses for future success. Revenue from continuing operations was strongly ahead of the low base set in the prior year, and net profits came in line with the board's expectations.
Financial results and condition
Revenue from continuing activities totalled GBP5.12m. Revenues, before the IntelliSAW related license fee, increased by 67% to GBP2.08m (2015: GBP1.25m). The pre tax profit (before discontinued operations) totalled GBP1.60m, which included the licence fee of GBP3.04m before associated costs and GBP2.76m after costs (2015: loss GBP2.13m).
The total profit attributable to shareholders was GBP1.15m (2015: loss of GBP3.12m) resulting in earnings per ordinary share of 0.26 pence (2015: loss of 1.11 pence). The board do not recommend payment of a dividend.
Net cash balances at 30 June 2015 were GBP3.65m (2015: GBP0.47m).
Strategy
The Company provides innovative sensor systems for complex applications and operates two principal businesses, SAWSense and Translogik. A third operating business, IntelliSAW, was sold in October 2015.
The Company intends to continue to commercialise sensor technologies by working closely with global partners in order to build value for shareholders through the generation and distribution of net income, and/or the return of capital on realisation.
SAWSense designs and develops Surface Acoustic Wave (or "SAW") sensor devices that can be used to measure torque, pressure and/or temperature in harsh, restricted or demanding environments to very high accuracy. This world leading technology has a broad range of potential uses ranging from premium value custom applications through to high volume mass markets such as passenger cars.
Translogik designs and manufactures a range of Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems ("TPMS"), products and services for heavy duty off road vehicles (particularly mine-haul trucks), commercial and passenger transport vehicles. These comprise the iTrack system, which provides real-time tyre temperature and pressure measurements for mine-haul trucks in service, and a range of tyre probes and other offerings for the road transport sector.
The Translogik product offerings are continually evolving with the focus on providing a comprehensive service to clients in the mining and truck industry and this strategy has resulted in the development of the new iTrack II kit which is set to be launched in September 2016 at MINExpo.
In the early part of the financial year the board decided to market the IntelliSAW division, in part due to concerns over the ongoing financial commitment to this loss making business. This decision resulted in the successful sale of the business to Emerson in October 2015, and the receipt of a one off licence fee for the use of the valuable intellectual property owned by the Company and required to operate the IntelliSAW division in future. The licence was restricted to the relatively narrow field of temperature monitoring in electrical switchgear in which IntelliSAW operates.
Our markets
SAW sensing in global industries
Sensor technology is widely used in virtually every industrial application across a broad range of industries, contributing to many billions of dollars in revenue. Sensors using SAW technology are powered by radio frequency ("RF"), do not require a battery and are wireless. This means that the sensor has significant benefits, as the package can be extremely small and light and is suited to harsh environment or remote locations, and does not require regular maintenance. Being wireless enables the sensor to be used in rotating components, other moving parts, or environments where electrical wiring would pose a safety risk.
These benefits are particularly appropriate in drives, motors, gearboxes, valves and couplings, which are in common use in the industrial equipment, energy generation, oil & gas, aviation, military and automotive sectors.
As Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) seek ever more data on a real-time basis to optimise the performance of their products, accurate and frequent measurement becomes increasingly important. The world's largest and most successful companies in these fields are recognising SAW as one of the enabling technologies in developing the "Internet of Things" in this arena, contributing to a vision by which machines are networked with embedded sensors to optimise performance using real time analytical tools, algorithms and interactive controls.
TPMS in Mining
The original iTrack system was developed to provide tyre pressure and temperature monitoring data to mine haul-truck operators, primarily to reduce or eliminate the incidence of tyre failure. The associated benefits in tyre life management were evident, and were initially viewed as a means of payback for the improved safety performance achieved.
Over recent years the collection of pressure and temperature data has become increasingly sophisticated, and our systems for measuring, monitoring and reporting tyre conditions are seen by key customers as a management tool to optimise asset utilisation and productivity, whilst continuing to make a key contribution to mine safety.
Since the end of the commodities boom in 2012, the world's major mining groups have come under relentless pressure to reduce debt and operating costs. The initial impact of dramatically reduced capital spending programmes had a seriously adverse effect on the roll out of our iTrack system in previous years, and despite offering flexible finance options, decision timescales to adopt any new technology have continued to be elongated in this difficult climate.
In the meantime, working closely with a select group of individual mines, our product and service offering has been developed to provide compelling real time information which can be used to optimise haul truck dispatch operations, minimise down-time, and increase tyre life and mine productivity. These exciting developments work in conjunction with complementary third party IT platforms to provide invaluable insight into mine operations, and will be launched as iTrack II later this month.
Whilst these product range improvements have been under development, we have maintained a fairly cautious approach to geographical expansion, focusing attention on markets in Chile, Australia and South Africa in which we have highly effective teams and channel partners. We are now ready to consider increasing resources in additional territories such as the US, Canada and other territories in the Latin America region in the coming year.
Capital structure
The board recognises that the capital structure of the Company, which currently includes valueless Deferred Shares and a substantial Share Premium Account, is no longer fit for purpose. The Board are therefore bringing forward proposals at the forthcoming AGM for a reduction in share capital by the cancellation of the deferred shares and the share premium account. This will result in the Company having distributable reserves enabling the payment of dividends from income or return of capital to shareholders from major licensing transactions or partial disposals in future. Additionally, it is proposed that the ordinary share capital is subject to a 50:1 consolidation to mitigate the effect of prior dilutions on the unit price per share and to reduce trading spreads and transaction costs for shareholders in future dealings.
Prospects
The Company is now in a robust financial condition and has the financial resources available to commit to building two distinct businesses with high growth potential. The latent value of our core SAW technology is becoming recognised, and addresses the increasing information demands of our global partners, who are leaders in industrial equipment, automotive, aerospace and other high volume markets.
The imminent launch by Translogik of iTrack II into the mining sector is timely, meeting the needs of increased productivity, cost control, asset management and safety. It is envisaged that customer trials will commence towards the end of 2016, and adoption by customers will arise by the early part of 2017. Meanwhile, revenues from the sale of tread depth probes are building momentum, although a major breakthrough in high volume has yet to be achieved.
Accordingly, the board is confident that the longer term prospects for the Company are promising, whilst maintaining a cautiously optimistic view of prospects for short term revenue growth and the achievement of break even.

Chief Executive's report
During the year the Company reached a turning point in which revenues returned to growth from a low base and trading losses excluding the licence fees were reduced by half. The Company delivered a positive profit attributable to shareholders and an increase in cash reserves following a successful fundraising, grant of licence and disposal of the IntelliSAW business.
Meanwhile, background work and investment in our core technologies has positioned the Company well to deliver success in the longer term.
SAWSense
The grant of a licence and sale of the IntelliSAW business to Emerson for aggregate consideration of US$5m in October 2015 marked a significant achievement in gaining validation of the inherent value of our core technology. The business was actively commercialising the use of SAW sensing for temperature measurement and control in electrical switchgear, but at the time of sale revenues had not reached break-even level.
The board determined that realisation of value for this activity by sale to a major global switchgear OEM was appropriate given the extent to which further commercialisation may deplete resources. By granting an exclusive licence to Emerson in this relatively narrow field, the Company has demonstrated the validity and value of the underlying technology and associated Intellectual Property ("IP").
Technical and commercial engagement with select global partners for other high volume applications are ongoing, with more than 20 live projects across multiple divisions of six major companies. These projects are generating sufficient short term revenue to cover internal R&D costs.
In the second half of the year, pilot production commenced of sensor kits to measure temperature, vibration and torque on a new range of industrial equipment recently launched by a large European OEM. Ramp up is expected to be gradual over a two to three year period as the new technology is taken up by end users. Several other applications are under evaluation with the same customer.
We continue to explore mass market automotive applications with a select group of global passenger car manufacturers, and believe that SAW sensors have unique capabilities to provide performance improvements in several areas. The disruptive nature of the technology does, however, give rise to understandable caution in the rate of adoption.
The relationship with General Electric Company ("GE"), as signalled previously by the completion of a Memorandum of Understanding announced in May 2015, has continued to flourish. We are actively collaborating on several development projects that are progressing towards commercialisation projects, covering multiple divisions of GE. One of these projects resulted in the completion of a licensing agreement, announced in July 2016, for non-exclusive use of Transense IP in certain specific torque applications for an initial fee rising to US$0.75m and a perpetual royalty on future production.
Overall, we are pleased with progress in this business and confident of future prospects.
Translogik
iTrack
Our iTrack products provides a range of features that allow mine operators to track their vehicles' tyre temperature and pressure, speed, braking and location in real-time and receive early warning of potential problems, hazards or opportunities.
During the year, all of our major customers experienced some degree of retrenchment and were subject to restrictions on capital and operational expenditure. In this climate, and despite the significant cost savings and productivity benefits that are evident from our systems, decision making timescales have been elongated.
Australia
We have opened a new iTrack dedicated data analytics control room in Mackay NSW, which has been very well received by service providers and mine owners. The control room allows us to provide critical tyre related alerts as well as performance related analytics. Trials are continuing with major mining companies with further trials expected following the introduction of iTrack II.
Chile
We have opened a new office in Antofagasta, which is considered the mining capital of Chile, and the same analytics service is also being offered there. Chile is also being used as a base to expand into other Latin American countries namely Brasil and Peru where we expect trials to be underway in the new financial year.
North America
We have appointed a consultant who is in the process of establishing a network of agents to include iTrack alongside other products they are already supplying into a range of mines.
New Product Innovations
Whilst market conditions have been subdued, we have taken the opportunity to design many more features and benefits into a brand new, iTrack II system, which is ready for launch at MINExpo 2016 in Las Vegas on 26-28 September 2016. Our intention is to maximise functionality and connectivity in a single comprehensive system, comprising rugged and reliable hardware, unparalleled connectivity with other technologies, and meaningful real-time output.
The control unit is mounted in each truck, and transmits live data across various protocols to iTrack servers at one of three global control centres. Dedicated iTrack experts are on hand to analyse live and historic data, determine trends and create custom reports and warnings. Mine operations will have access to tyre temperature, pressure, sensor function, GPS and speed data on easy to read, customisable screens. This data can provide invaluable signals, not only to avoid tyre failures and increase life, but also to increase truck speeds, availability and productivity. Our offer will be to provide the equipment on finance or operating lease although our preference will be towards operating leases with additional charges for data provision and monitoring services.
Early indications are positive and we await the outcome of the MINExpo and subsequent orders.
Probe
The Probe is now being used in 43 different countries and sales in the last financial year were 60% ahead of the previous year. The number of System Integrators, Value Added Resellers and Service Providers using the probe would suggest 2017 will be another good year. Integration of the probe within the commercial bus and truck market has been completed by Goodyear with their ControlMax system, Bridgestone with Fleet Alalyser2, ContiTrade with Fleetfox and Michelin with iManage. The UK's Garage Equipment Association has recently granted approval which allows the probe to be used as an MOT audit device and our distributors Rema Tip Top in the UK and Squarerigger in the USA are both focusing on the passenger car market which is showing some potential.

Financial Review
Results for the year
Revenues from continuing activities totalled GBP5.12m and after excluding the licence fee, other revenues increased by 67% to GBP2.08m (2015: GBP1.25m). The pre-tax profit (before discontinued operations) totalled GBP1.60m, which included the licence fee of GBP3.04m before costs and GBP2.76m after costs (2015: loss GBP2.13m).
Translogik revenues grew by 79% to GBP1.63m, and SAWSense generated GBP0.45m of revenues (2015: GBP0.33m) from design, development and low volume production activities. SAWSense also produced a further GBP3.04m of revenues generated from the licensing of IP to Emerson following the sale of the IntelliSAW business. Gross margins excluding the licence fee were 64% (2015: 67%) reflecting a slight change in the mix between business activities.
Administrative overheads for the year amounted to GBP2.54m compared with GBP3.04m in the prior year.
The Earnings per share (EPS) are set out below (in Pence):
Hot Features
Premium
2016 2015
EPS (including discounted operations) 0.258 (1.060)
EPS (excluding discounted operations) 0.361 (0.700)
Taxation
The Company has UK tax losses available to carry forward at 30 June 2016 of approximately GBP16.7m, subject to HMRC agreement.
Certain elements of development expenditure undertaken by the company are eligible for enhanced research and development tax relief which generally relates to salary costs of technical staff. As a result of claims in 2015 and 2014 the Company has received tax credits of GBP0.08m and GBP0.07m respectively.
Cash flow and financial position
There was a net cash inflow of GBP3.18m (2015: outflow of GBP2.61m) during the year, arising from trading and GBP2.46m of proceeds arising from the share issue in July 2015.
Net cash generated by operations amounted to GBP0.84m, which included the benefit of the majority of the licence fee received from Emerson. The balance of the licence fee totalling GBP0.30m (USD0.40m), is being held in escrow due for release in October 2016 and is included in other receivables.
At 30 June 2016 the group had net cash balances of GBP3.65m (2015: GBP0.47m). A further US$0.50m (or approximately GBP0.38m) was received in licensing revenue in August 2016.
Whilst it is anticipated that the Company will continue to consume cash to finance on-going activities in the short term, the directors consider that there are sufficient cash resources available to reach a break-even level of revenues, and accordingly are satisfied that the Company can continue trading as a going concern for the foreseeable future.

A deferred tax

following
item:
Tax Losses 3,361 3,671
============================================= =============================================
Reductions in the UK corporation tax rate from 21% to 20% (effective from 1 April 2015) has been enacted. This will reduce the company's future current tax charge accordingly. Deferred tax has been calculated at the rate of 20% substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. The effect of this change is that profits arising in 2016 are taxable at a rate of approximately 20.00%. The deferred tax asset as at 30 June 2016 has been calculated based on the rate of 20% substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
The Group has tax losses, subject to agreement by HM Revenue and Customs, in the sum of GBP16.76m (2015: GBP17.66m), which are available for offset against future profits of the same trade. There is no expiry date for tax losses. An appropriate asset will be recognised when the Group can demonstrate a reasonable expectation of sufficient taxable profits to utilise the temporary differences.
The June 2015 Budget announced that the rate will further reduce to 19% by 2017 and a further reduction to 18% by 2020 which was reduced further to 17% in the 2016 Budget. These further reductions in the main UK corporation tax rate have yet to be enacted.
As a result the effective tax rate used to calculate the current tax for the period ended 30 June 2016 was 20.00% (2015: 20.75%).
5 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the profit after taxation of GBP1.15m (2015: loss of GBP3.12m) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year of 458,108,483 (2015: 295,534,513). Unexercised options over the ordinary shares are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share as they are anti-dilutive.
