Chairman's Statement
Imaginatik plc continues to be the number one ranked leader in corporate innovation management according to Forrester Research. We believe our solutions offer a combination of software and consultancy which is compelling for customers who are interested in achieving their innovation objectives. Our strengths include:
-- Proven enterprise software
-- The quality of our consultants many of whom have worked
for companies which use Imaginatik's products
-- Wide experience over many industries
-- Portfolio of case studies and success stories
Innovation and improvement are activities that every Company has to focus on if it is to succeed in a world which is increasingly competitive, faster moving and where there is a need to continually improve if a business is to survive and succeed.
The 2018 financial year proved to be disappointing, with revenues down on 2017 and another loss incurred. In February of this year, and in response to our poor operating performance, the board announced that it would undertake a strategic review of the business, appointing financial advisers to assist in the process. This process was concluded in early June 2018. The board determined that despite having held detailed discussions with several interested parties and received several proposals in relation to buying the business, it was unable to recommend any of the proposals to shareholders.
In parallel to the discussions with parties interested in buying the business the board had discussions with other parties in order to secure further new funding with a view to making significant structural changes to the business in order to ensure the Company's longer term survival and providing it with an opportunity to flourish. To this end, on 4 June 2018 we announced an equity fundraise of GBP225,000 and a programme of cost reduction with the objective of reducing the annualised cost base by at least GBP750,000. We also undertook an overhaul of the senior management team as well as the introduction of new working practices. I am pleased to report that the benefits of these actions are beginning to be felt and we anticipate this will continue through the rest of the Company's financial year.
Advisers, creditors and shareholders have been very patient during the Company's recent past and continue to be so as the structural changes described above are implemented. I wish to thank them for their patience. I am hopeful and confident that the changes we are making, which are throughout the Company and affect every aspect of the operations, will result in a more stable, focussed and successful operation. I wish also to thank Matt Cooper, who has been a significant provider of financial and strategic support to the Company during the years of his chairmanship. Matt left as part of the changes described above and I am grateful for his understanding during this time. The Company wishes him well and I wish him well personally. Ralph Welborn, Chief Executive Officer, also left the business. We have also benefited post year-end from the support of our new joint broker, Peterhouse Capital Limited, for whose assistance in procuring additional funding we are very grateful.
Our new CEO, Angus Forrest, who was appointed to the position on 1 July 2018, has hit the ground running and is making progress in implementing change which is both significant and rapid, and I have every confidence that progress will continue and look forward to reporting on that progress in due course.

Chairman
CEO's Statement
My short time with Imaginatik has been informative, the Company has a market leading product with many satisfied customers and employs great people who have a passion for the business. However, there were facets of the business, which required serious and immediate attention. We have prioritised those changes which have the fastest and biggest returns, gradually moving on to the areas which take time to have an impact and finally onto those with the smaller benefit. The objective is to create a cash generative, profitable Company, which is growing strongly, providing returns to shareholders and good careers to its loyal employees.
Since my appointment the following changes have been made:
a. Cost reductions have reduced the break-even point by approximately GBP1.0m per year, approximately 25% of the overhead base, without any adverse effect on the business.
b. Revenue generation - new marketing methods, clear sales targets and a greater focus have been introduced to the benefit of sales.
c. Management - there has been increased focus on leadership, communications both internally and externally and with greater accountability - targets have been agreed and will be measured against.
These changes have only recently been introduced, but so far we are ahead of target and the Company's employees are all participating in these initiatives, actively contributing to the improvements.
It is exciting to be able to report that over the past several months the Company has been approached by several third parties interested in working with the Company and those talks continue.
On behalf of the Board I would like to thank shareholders for their support and interest, and all of our employees for their dedication, hard work and patience with the changes being implemented.
Whilst we have made considerable progress, there is much to do for the Company to begin to achieve its undoubted potential and we will work to exploit the opportunity profitably.
Outlook
The year to 31 March 2019 is one of significant change with the emphasis being on improving the performance of every part of the business. Although there may be some adverse impact in the short term, this will build firm foundations for the future development of the enterprise. The first objective for the Company is to improve its financial performance which comprises both cost reduction and revenue improvement, we are making progress on both fronts and I look forward to reporting further progress in due course.

Chief Executive Officer
Strategic Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2018
Business Review
Imaginatik plc is a well established leading player in the global innovation market. The Company has a suite of technology and consultancy products used by blue chip clients, mainly in North America and Europe. The challenge for the Company is to build on the strong base in the existing markets and then build out globally.
Strategy
Our strategy in the short term is one of organic growth whilst improving the business as described in the CEO statement. When the effectiveness of the improvement programmes outlined have been proven we will look to accelerate growth through strategic partnerships and possibly opportunistic acquisition.
Product
Imaginatik's products deliver a targeted and managed process that facilitates employee led innovation and improvement. The customers use the products in a variety of ways to maximise their benefits for example:
-- Pharmaceuticals to accelerate drug development and testing
programmes - reducing time to market
-- Retailers to improve sales techniques
-- Engineering to improve reliability
-- All to improve efficiencies and processes, reduce costs
and improve revenues.
The product incorporates analytical tools for example to seek out specialists in large organisations with thousands of employees to bring their proven skills to bear in resolving current business challenges.
Market
The potential market is one of large and medium sized businesses and organisations. These businesses find the greatest benefits from a targeted and managed improvement process. The benefits of innovation and improvement are very visible and even the most traditional business will not succeed unless it innovates and improves. The car industry is a prime example where there has been massive change with new entrants and many of those prepared to innovate succeeding; whereas those which were complacent failing.
Imaginatik has a wide range of customer case studies showing how the use of the Imaginatik solution has helped businesses innovate and improve, delivering successful projects in a wide range of industries over multiple disciplines and in turn generating very substantial returns on investment.
Future developments
Technology
As predicted last year the Company has to innovate and recently announced the release of a new mobile and tablet version of Innovation Central, the Company's leading product.
The use of our analytic tools is enhancing the product's capabilities deploying artificial intelligence in our solutions to augment decision-making and provide valuable insights for our customers.
Further product and market developments, will be announced as appropriate.
Sales and Marketing
The marketing focus adopted last year to drive more inbound relevant leads has continued and been further refined. The cost per lead has fallen significantly, and whilst there are fewer leads, they are of a higher quality which is more effective as it allows the sales team to focus their efforts on real opportunities.
After the year end a new approach has been taken to the sales process which is beginning to show promise as the conversion rates are improving, value per sale increasing and in recent months a number of new customers have been contracted.
We have some interesting partnerships with potential, and we want to build on that in the future with additional strategic partnerships. It is important that partnerships work for both parties. At present we are considering the key objectives to attract the best partners and how to build long term relationships, success requires both parties to invest time and money in setting up and building the business case together.
Consultancy
Since the arrival of new management the role of the consultants has changed. The most important focus is now to ensure that Imaginatik's expertise built up over many years, markets and projects is brought to bear on all customers to make sure every project delivers value for our customers.
KPIs & Financial Review
The key performance indicators on which we judge the progress of our business are as follows:
KPI 2018 2017 Gross bookings (1) * GBP3.6m GBP3.2m Recognised revenue GBP3.7m GBP3.9m New & expansion bookings (2) * GBP1.6m GBP1.7m Renewal bookings (3) * GBP2.1m GBP1.5m Number of clients renewing their contracts 23/30 22/30 Number of new client wins in the year 12 15 Total number of annual contracts at year end 38 40 Consulting as a % of contracted revenue 23% 26% Loss after tax (GBP1.15m) (GBP0.84m) Cash balance GBP0.06m GBP0.12m
*At constant currency, exchange rate of 1.3979 as at 31 March 2018.
(1) Gross value of contracted sales in the period
(2) Gross value of contracted sales in the period with new clients and expansion within existing clients
(3) Gross value of contracted sales in the period for clients renewing their contract
Gross bookings for the period were GBP3.6m, an increase of 12% on FY17 at constant currency. After a disappointing first quarter for gross bookings the levels increased in Q2 and Q3 (July 17 to December 17), with GBP2.5m arising in this period. The uneven distribution of sales bookings is significantly influenced by the timing of renewals, with most renewals arising in the period from August to December each year.
The overall level of renewal bookings in the year was GBP2.1m (FY17:GBP1.5m), with the increase on FY17 principally the result of one large multi-year contract closing with a significant customer, although post period end the contract size was reduced in scope by GBP0.4m. The Company ended the year with 38 customers (FY17:40).
New and expansion business at GBP1.6m (FY17:GBP1.7m) was lower than had been anticipated but nevertheless the Company was successful in securing 12 new customers in the period (FY17:15), of which seven were technology customers taking an annual or multi-year licence, two were pilots and three via new consulting engagements. During the period we successfully renewed 23 out of 30 possible renewals (FY17:22/30) and amounting to 88% by reference to the previous year's value contracted.
New customers acquired include a US based global airline and several businesses from the insurance and financial services sectors, all of which are well recognised global brands.
The Company's cash balances are a key KPI and are monitored on a daily basis during the period under review and shared with the management team and board on a regular basis.
Financial Review
Total recognised revenue for the year ended 31 March 2018 was GBP3.68m (FY17: GBP3.92m) with 77% of revenue arising from technology (FY17: 74%) and consulting revenues comprising 23% of the total (FY17: 26%).
In terms of geographic distribution of revenues, the US market remains our core sales market as it has done for many years with 62% of revenues arising from the region (FY17:71%) with the remaining 38% derived from the Rest of the World (FY17:29%). The increase to Rest of the World revenues was the result of acquiring several new customers in the Asia-Pacific region.
One of the consequences of the post period end restructuring and the appointment of a new CEO, has been a re-focusing of the portfolio of technology development projects. As a result there were a number of development projects that have been either terminated or put on hold such that there is now a degree of uncertainty over whether those projects will be completed. Given this level of uncertainty the board has determined that those assets are impaired and under IAS 36 must be written off in the reporting period. This one off write down amounted to GBP0.47m in total and has been included within administrative expenses.
Administrative expenses for the period were GBP5.02m, an increase of 9% on FY17 (GBP4.6m) and largely due to the impairment of intangible assets described above. Headcount in the period was an average of 35 employees across the US and UK operations (FY17: 35) although the headcount numbers have been reduced post period end as a result of the restructuring of the business referred to in the CEO report. The foreign exchange gains of GBP0.14m in the year (FY17: GBP0.23m loss) were largely the result of unrealised gains on the retranslation of $US denominated deferred revenues. Other operating income of GBP0.06m (FY17:GBP0.06m) reflects rental income arising from the sub-lease of property in Boston, USA.
As a result of the impairment described above, the loss before tax rises to GBP1.35m (FY17: GBP1.06m). The Company secured an R&D tax credit of GBP0.20m in the year (FY17:GBP0.21m), the result of the Company's leading edge research and development work undertaken in the UK.
The Company made a prior year adjustment of GBP0.06m to cover holiday pay accruals, increasing the loss in FY17 to GBP0.84m.
Cash outflows from operating activities were GBP0.80m (FY17:GBP0.86m) and the Company invested GBP0.56m across the business, primarily in the development of its technology assets (FY17:GBP0.59m). The cash requirements of these combined outflows were met through the proceeds of an institutional fund raising of GBP1.31m net of expenses (FY17:GBP1.55m).
The Directors have reviewed the Group's expected operating overheads as well as global sales forecasts for the next 12 months in order to form a view on the Company's likely cash requirements. The budgeted operating overheads take into account the programme of structural changes that have been underway since June 2018 as well as other anticipated changes that are expected to yield further benefits and cost savings expected to take place later in the new financial year. The sales forecasts have considered the likely level of renewals that might be expected by customer including the likelihood of contract closure as well as timing and quantum, in doing so the directors have taken into account historic experience and current knowledge. Sales forecasts for new and upsell business have also been reviewed and have taken into account the current state of the sales pipeline in the USA and Rest of World and considered what new sales opportunities might reasonably be forecast to arise further in the year given the Company's current marketing plans, available resources and expertise.
Since the year end the Company has, through two share placings, secured additional equity funding of GBP0.47m gross of expenses as well as a debt for equity swap with certain creditors amounting to GBP0.08m. In addition the Company has secured a GBP0.5m loan from VM AV Corporate Services Limited. As announced on 4 September 2018 the Company continues to be in discussions with an investor to make a controlling equity investment. Given the funding secured post year end and providing the Company is able to successfully conclude the ongoing controlling equity investment the Directors consider that the Company will have sufficient financial resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, therefore, that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. As with all business forecasts, the Directors' statement cannot guarantee that the going concern basis will remain appropriate given the inherent uncertainty about future events specifically due to the material uncertainty over the raising of funds. These financial statements do not take into account any potential impairment.
Principal business risks and uncertainties
The directors have identified below the major risks of the business, their impact and the tactics used to manage and mitigate the risks. The Company monitors the principal risks by the production of reports and the board considers them regularly at Board Meetings. The Company operates internal controls in order to reduce or eliminate risks as part of normal operating processes. The board considers the principal risks and uncertainties in the business as shown below.
- Loss of major customers
The Group has a small number of major customers. Accordingly, there is a risk of loss of major clients that could result in a reduction in revenue and cashflow. The Group endeavours to provide an excellent service to customers at competitive pricing. In the event of the loss of a major customer, steps would be taken to reduce the Group's cost base.
- Customer failure
The Group has a small number of major customers and, accordingly, is exposed to potentially significant bad debts should a major customer become insolvent. The Group operates a credit control policy to reduce the risk of customer failure, although the Group does not have credit insurance in place.
- Competition
The Group's competitors may offer superior services to the market or lower prices, which could reduce the attractiveness of the Group's services and result in a reduction in revenue. In the event of a significant reduction in revenue, steps would be taken to reduce the Group's cost base.
- Attraction and retention of key employees.
The success of the Group depends on the abilities and experience of the key employees. The loss of key employees or the inability to recruit replacements could have a significant adverse effect on the day to day running of the Group and on the development of the Group's business. The Group seeks to reward key employees at appropriate levels, including the provision of equity incentive schemes, designed to attract and retain key employees of appropriate calibre.
- Financial risks
The Group finances its operations through a mixture of cash generated from operations and, where necessary to fund expansion or capital expenditure programmes, through leasing or the proceeds of the sale of shares. There are also risks relating to financial exchange fluctuations.
- Future funding
Whilst the Company has substantially reduced its cost base and has raised equity and loan capital post year end, the Company may require further funding for working capital and future development. The successful conclusion of the current discussions with an investor to take a controlling equity investment in the business is critical.
Management objectives are to:
- Retain sufficient liquid funds to enable the group to meet its day to day obligations as they fall due whilst maximising returns on surplus funds; and
- Match the repayment schedule of any external borrowings with the expected future cash flows expected to arise from the group's trading activities.
As all the group's surplus funds are invested in Pound Sterling and US Dollar bank deposit accounts foreign exchange risk arises.
The group's surplus funds are held primarily in short term variable rate deposit accounts. The directors believe that this gives them the flexibility to release cash resources at short notice and also allows them to take advantage of changing conditions in the finance markets as they arise.
Summary and Outlook
The Company did not achieve all the objectives set out in the 2017 Report and Accounts. However, customers continue to renew their contracts and there are new customer wins which we believe to be a very positive sign for the future of the business. Post period end actions have been taken to substantially reduce the cost base and therefore improve the Company's financial performance. These changes have begun to make an impact but it is a medium term set of projects, which will take some months to see the full benefits emerge.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2018
Non-statutory financial statements
The financial information set out in this preliminary results announcement does not constitute the Group's statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018 or 2017 but is derived from those financial statements. Statutory financial statements for 2017 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. Those for 2018 will be delivered following the Company's Annual General Meeting, which will be convened on 15 October 2018. The auditors have reported on those accounts: their reports on those financial statements were unqualified and did not contain statements under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements, and this preliminary statement, of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2018 were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 10 September 2018 and the balance sheet was signed on behalf of the Board by 10 September 2018.
1 General information
The group headed by Imaginatik PLC is one of the leading providers of collaborative innovation software and related professional services to large and medium-sized enterprises.
The Company is a public company limited by share capital incorporated and domiciled in the UK.
The address of its registered office is:
27/28 Eastcastle Street
London
W1W 8DH
The Company's ordinary shares are traded on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange.
The Company has adopted the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and IFRIC interpretations endorsed by the European Union (EU) and those parts of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the treatment of share options, and are in accordance with applicable accounting standards.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out below, which have been consistently applied to all the years presented. These accounting policies comply with applicable IFRS and IFRIC interpretations issued and effective at the time of preparing these statements.
2 Accounting policies
Going concern
The group posted a loss before tax of GBP1,355,000 (2017 - GBP1,057,000) for the period, has current net liabilities of GBP1,157,000 (2017 - GBP973,000) and retained losses of GBP14,814,000 (2017 - GBP13,659,000). The group had net funds at 31 March 2018 of GBP61,000 (2017 - GBP117,000).
The group meets its financing requirements through the regular placing of new shares and completed a placing of new ordinary shares with institutional and other investors in June 2017 raising a total of GBP1,450,000 before expenses.
The Directors have reviewed the group's budgets and forecasts for the coming 12 months, which have been prepared with appropriate regard to the current macroeconomic environment and the conditions in the principal markets served by the group. The Directors have taken into consideration the group's net funds, the level of anticipated renewals by reviewing on a customer by customer basis, forecast new and up sell revenues based on sales in the pipeline and anticipated costs. There is inherent uncertainty in the level of anticipated renewals and up sell revenues and assumptions are based on reasonable expectations taking into account historic experience and current knowledge. The forecasts include investments and additional costs commensurate with expected levels of growth and options available to the Directors, the forecasts also include the ability to flex these investments and costs should predicted revenues be lower than forecast or timings change.
Since the year end the Company has, through two share placings, secured additional equity funding of GBP0.47m gross of expenses as well as a debt for equity swap with certain creditors amounting to GBP0.08m. In addition the Company has secured a GBP0.5m loan from VM AV Corporate Services Limited. As announced on 4 September 2018 the Company continues to be in discussions with an investor to make a controlling equity investment. Given the funding secured post year end and providing the Company is able to successfully conclude the ongoing controlling equity investment the Directors consider that the Company will have sufficient financial resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, therefore, that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. As with all business forecasts, the Directors' statement cannot guarantee that the going concern basis will remain appropriate given the inherent uncertainty about future events specifically due to the material uncertainty over the raising of funds. These financial statements do not take into account any potential impairment.
Basis of consolidation
The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Company and all of its subsidiary undertakings drawn up to 31 March 2018. Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has the control. Control comprises an investor having power over the investee and is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power.
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption under S408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own statement of comprehensive income.
Prior period adjustments
The Company made a prior period adjustment of GBP0.06m to cover holiday pay accruals, increasing the loss for FY17 to GBP0.84m from GBP0.78m as originally stated. Administrative expenses increased from GBP4.54m to GBP4.60 and accruals increased from GBP2.45m to GBP2.51m. The basic and diluted loss per share increased from 0.57p to 0.62p.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of sales related taxes. Income for the group is derived from two sources: Technology and Consultancy. These sources are service-based rather than through the sale of goods. Following the principles of IAS 18 Revenue, the policies for income recognition in respect of each of the different sources of income are such that income is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period. In applying the income recognition policies below where there is a requirement for a contract to be signed, income is recognised in accordance with the policy when the contract has been signed or persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists.
a) Consulting:
Income derived from our consulting offering is recognised in the month in which the consulting takes place. Income from longer term consulting arrangements shall be recognised evenly over the term of the contract.
b) Technology:
The provision of our suite of technology products includes provision of software licences, hosting and maintenance in relation to the product over the contract term. Income arising from the provision of these bundled services are recognised evenly over the term of the contract, once an agreement has been signed or persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists.
Leases
Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Costs in respect of operating leases are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease in arriving at the operating loss before taxation.
Defined contribution pension obligation
Contributions to the group's defined contributions pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period in which they become payable.
Property, plant and equipment
All property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less subsequent depreciation and impairment. The costs of the property, plant and equipment is their purchase price plus any incidental costs of acquisition. Depreciation commences at the point the asset is brought into use.
If there is any indication that an asset's value is less than its carrying amount an impairment review is carried out. Where impairment is identified an asset's value is reduced to reflect this.
The residual values and useful economic lives of fixed assets are reviewed by management on an annual basis and revised to the extent required.
Depreciation
Depreciation is provided to write off the cost, less estimated residual values, of all property, plant and equipment equally over their expected useful lives. It is calculated at the following rates:
Depreciation method and
Asset class rate
Leasehold improvements Over the life of the lease
Fixtures and fittings 33% per annum
Equipment 33% per annum
Intangible assets
Software licences
The costs of significant groups of software licences are capitalised and then amortised over the useful economic lives of the software concerned. Amortisation is charged to administrative expenses.
The cost of intangible assets is their purchase price plus any incidental costs of acquisition. Amortisation begins from the time the asset is brought into use.
Research and development
The cost of research is charged to the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which it is incurred. Development expenditure is capitalised only if the Company can demonstrate the following conditions:
- The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale.
- Its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it.
- Its ability to use or sell the intangible asset.
- How the intangible asset will generate probably future economic benefits.
- The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset
- Its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
Development costs not meeting the criteria for capitalisation are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. The cost of an internally generated intangible asset comprises all directly attributable costs, including labour costs, necessary to create, produce, and prepare the asset to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Until completion of the development project, the assets are subject to impairment testing only. Amortisation commences when the asset is brought into use, and is shown within 'Administrative Expenses' on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Amortisation
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Amortisation method and
Asset class rate
Software 20% to 33% per annum
Development costs 20% per annum
Impairment
At the end of each accounting period the Group assess the recoverable amounts of intangible assets. Where there is an indication of impairment an impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the assets carrying value exceed its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss.
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit and is accounted for using the statement of financial position liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each statement of financial position date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset realised based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date. Deferred tax and current tax are charged or credited to profit or loss, except when it relates to items charged or credited in other comprehensive income or directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or equity respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Share based payments
Where equity-settled share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to profit or loss over the vesting period. Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each statement of financial position date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting period is based on the number of options that eventually vest. Market vesting conditions are factored into the fair value of the options granted. As long as all other vesting conditions are satisfied, a charge is made irrespective of whether the market vesting conditions are satisfied. The cumulative expense is not adjusted for failure to achieve a market vesting condition.
Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified or a new award is designated as replacing a cancelled or settled award, the cost based on the original award terms continues to be recognised over the original vesting period. In addition, an expense is recognised over the remainder of the new vesting period for the incremental fair value of any modification, based on the difference between the fair value of the original award and the fair value of the modified award, both as measured on the date of the modification. No reduction is recognised if this difference is negative. Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any cost not yet recognised in the income statement for the award is expensed immediately. Any compensation paid up to the fair value of the award at the cancellation or settlement date is deducted from equity, with any excess over fair value being treated as an expense in the income statement. The Group has no cash settled share based payments.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
The presentational currency of the group and functional currency of the trading entities is Sterling. Transactions entered into by group entities in a currency other than the currency of the primary economic environment in which they operate (their "functional currency") are recorded at the rates ruling when the transactions occur. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates ruling at the statement of financial position date. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of unsettled monetary assets and liabilities are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Employee benefits
The Company accounts for employee benefits in accordance with IAS 19. Under IAS 19 there is a requirement to recognise the monetary value of employee benefits accruing but not yet settled, typically holiday pay. There is a requirement to account for the value of the liability for employee benefits to be paid in the future for services provided up to the reporting date.
Financial assets
Classification
Financial assets currently comprise trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents.
Recognition and measurement
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Included within loans and receivables are trade and other receivables. Trade and other receivables are recognised at fair value less transaction costs. Subsequently they are carried at amortised cost.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and other short-term deposits in the Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at banks and in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less and where there is an insignificant risk of changes in value. In the consolidated cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above.
Financial liabilities
Classification
Financial liabilities currently comprise trade and other payables.
Recognition and measurement
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value less transaction costs and thereafter carried at amortised cost.
Share capital
Equity comprises the following:
"Issued capital" represents the nominal value of equity shares.
"Share premium" represents the excess over nominal value of the fair value of consideration received for equity shares net of expenses of the share issue.
"Share option reserve" represents equity-settled share-based employee remuneration until such share options are exercised.
"Retained losses" represents retained losses.

Critical judgements and significant accounting estimates
In determining and applying accounting policies, judgement is often required in respect of items where the choice of specific policy, accounting estimate or assumption to be followed could materially affect the reported results or net asset position of the Group should it later be determined that a different choice would be more appropriate. The most significant areas where judgement and estimates have been applied are as follows:
Judgements
The value of the awards under the modified and new share option scheme was measured, in accordance with IFRS 2, by reference to their fair value at the date on which they were granted. Judgement was required in determining the most appropriate valuation model (see Note 17).
At the end of each accounting period the Group assesses the recoverable amounts of intangible assets. Where there is an indication of impairment an impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the assets carrying value exceed its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss.
The cost of an internally generated intangible asset comprises all directly attributable costs necessary to create, produce, and prepare the asset to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Until completion of the development project, the assets are subject to impairment testing only. Amortisation commences upon completion of the asset, and is shown within 'Administrative Expenses' on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
At the end of each accounting period, the group assess it's ability to continue for a period of at least 12 months from the date the financial statements are approver, by reviewing budgets and forecasts for future trading years (as noted above in Note 2).
Estimates
Significant assumptions were necessary in arriving at the inputs into the valuation model for modified and new share option scheme (see Note 17).
3 Segmental reporting
Management currently identifies the Group's two revenue streams as its operating segments. These operating segments are monitored by the Group's chief operating decision maker. For these operating segments only revenues are reported to the Group's chief operating decision maker as results, other costs and assets and liabilities cannot be reliably allocated to the operating segments.

Factors that may affect future tax charges
Based on current capital investment plans, the group expects to be able to continue to claim capital allowances in excess of depreciation in future periods at a slightly lower level than in the current period.
At 31 March 2018 the group has estimated tax losses of GBP11,050,270 (2017 - GBP9,744,144) carried forward and available indefinitely for offset against future profits. No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of these losses as there is insufficient evidence that future profits will be sufficient for recovery of the losses.
11. Earnings per share
The calculation of basic loss per share (EPS) is based on the loss attributable to equity holders of the parent for the year of GBP1,155,000 (2017 - loss of GBP842,000) and a weighted average of 206,677,091 (2017 - 136,474,544) ordinary shares in issue.
The share options issued during the current and prior year are anti-dilutive due to losses, and therefore diluted EPS equals basic EPS.

At the Statement of Financial Position date, impairment testing was undertaken by comparing the carrying values of intangibles against the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset has been allocated. Recoverable amounts are based on value-in-use calculations using pre-tax cashflows covering a three year period based on forecasts approved by management. No terminal value has been attributed to the development projects. The two key assumptions used in the impairment review are the revenue growth rates and the discount rate applied. In terms of the revenue assumption, and given the historic performance of the business, management have assumed broadly zero growth. Whilst management would expect growth to be higher than this, it should be noted that for forecasting a discount rate of 12% has been used reflecting management's assessment of the risks specific to CGUs. Sensitivity analysis performed on these projections demonstrate significant valuation headroom above the carrying values of each CGU if the discount rate is increased to 25%. It should be noted that the forecasting process is difficult and subject to a high degree of volatility, therefore prior year forecasts have not always been met. The average remaining amortisation period, for those assets still being amortised is 26 months. The longest remaining amortisation period for a single asset is 46 months.
As disclosed in the financial review on page 6 one of the consequences of the post period end restructuring and the appointment of a new CEO has been a re-focusing of the portfolio of technology development projects. As a result there were a number of development projects that have been terminated or put on hold such that there is now some degree of uncertainty over whether those projects will be completed. The board has therefore determined that those assets are impaired and under IAS 36 must be written off in the reporting period. This one off write down amounted to GBP0.47m in total, of which GBP0.38m relates to costs capitalised in prior periods and GBP0.09m to work undertaken in the current financial year that forms part of the amortisation charge.

Company
GBP341,000 (2017 - GBP97,000) of trade or other receivables is classified as non current.
The inter-company receivables are not past due, not impaired and are regarded as fully performing assets. They are unsecured and repayable on demand.

Scheme details and movements
During the year the Group operated an approved Enterprise management scheme, an approved Incentive stock option agreement and an unapproved share option scheme.
For all schemes, options vest provided the employee who has been granted the option remains employed by the group at the earliest date that they may exercise the option. Each director or employee may exercise 50% of the options granted to them between two and ten years after the date of the grant. The remainder may be exercised between three and ten years after the date of the grant. Options are forfeited if the employee leaves the Company before the options vest. The options will be settled by the issue and allotment of fully-paid ordinary shares. The options are .

The weighted average remaining contractual life is 8.09 years (2017 - 8.45 years).
The cost of options granted is spread over the option vesting period. The charge for the year in relation to options held during the year is GBP54,433 (2017 - GBP54,740).
Fair value of options granted
The fair value of the new options of GBP75,047 (2017 - GBP88,214) and the incremental fair value of the modified options of GBPnil (2017 - GBPnil) were calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. The cancelled options had fully vested prior to cancellation. The inputs into the model were as follows:

Risk management
The group is exposed through its operations to the following financial risks:
- credit risk;
- foreign exchange risk; and
- liquidity risk.
In common with all other businesses, the group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the group's objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements.
There have been no substantive changes in the group's exposure to financial instrument risks, its objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note.
Principal financial instruments
The principal financial instruments used by the group, from which financial instrument risk arises, are as follows:
- trade receivables;
- cash at bank; and
- trade and other payables.
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 finance function. The board receives monthly reports from the chief Financial Officer 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 polices that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the group's competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below.
Interest rate risk
At present the directors do not believe that the group has significant interest rate risk and consequently does not hedge against such risk. Cash balances earn interest at variable rates.
The group's financial assets as at 31 March 2018 comprised cash at bank of GBP61,000 (2017 - GBP117,000). Interest is paid on cash at floating rates in line with prevailing market rates.
Sensitivity analysis
At 31 March 2018, had the LIBOR 1 MONTH rate increased by 1% with all other variables held constant, the increase in interest receivable on financial assets would amount to approximately GBP1,000 (2017 - GBP1,000). Similarly a 1% decrease in the LIBOR 1 MONTH rate with all other variables held constant would result in a decrease in interest receivable on financial assets of approximately GBP1,000 (2017 - GBP1,000).
Credit risk and impairment
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the group if a customer or a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The group is mainly exposed to credit risk from credit sales. It is group policy, implemented locally, to assess the credit risk of new customers before entering contracts. Such credit ratings take into account local business practices.
The group has a credit policy under which each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the group's standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered.
Credit risk also arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions. To manage this, the group has made sure that they use reputable banks.
The group's chief financial officer monitors the utilisation of the credit limits regularly and at the reporting date does not expect any losses from non-performance by the counterparties other than what has already been provided for.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk arises because the group has operations located in various parts of the world whose functional currency is not the same as the functional currency in which the group companies are operating. Although its global market penetration reduces the group's operational risk in that it has diversified into several markets, the group's net assets arising from such overseas operations are exposed to currency risk resulting in gains or losses on retranslation into sterling. Only in exceptional circumstances will the group consider hedging its net investments in overseas operations as generally it does not consider that the reduction in foreign currency exposure warrants the cash flow risk created from such hedging techniques.
The group's policy is, where possible, to allow group entities to settle liabilities denominated in their functional currency (primarily US dollars or pound sterling) with the cash generated from their own operations in that currency. Where group entities have liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency (and have insufficient reserves of that currency to settle them) cash already denominated in that currency will, where possible, be transferred from elsewhere within the group.
Currency profile
Financial assets
- Cash Sterling: GBP10,000 (2017 - GBP23,000)
- Cash US dollar: GBP51,000 (2017 - GBP94,000)
- Trade receivables Sterling: GBP50,000 (2017 - GBP194,000)
- Trade receivables US dollar: GBP772,000 (2017 - GBP986,000)
- Trade receivables Euro: GBP14,000 (2017 - GBP279,000)
Financial liabilities
- Trade payables Sterling: GBP75,000 (2017 - GBP69,000)
- Trade payables US dollar: GBP175,000 (2017 - GBP160,000)
- Trade payables Euro: GBP1,000 (2017 - GBP2,000)
Sensitivity analysis
At 31 March 2018, if Sterling had strengthened by 10% against USD with all other variables held constant, loss before tax for the year would have been approximately GBP110,000 (2017 - GBP92,000) higher, mainly as a result of foreign exchange losses on translation of USD denominated cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables, compensated by foreign exchange gains on translation of USD denominated trade payables and deferred revenues.
Conversely, if Sterling had weakened by 10% against USD with all other variables held constant, loss before tax for the year would have been approximately GBP110,000 (2017 - GBP92,000) lower.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the group's management of working capital and the finance charges and principal repayments on its debt instruments. It is the risk that the group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due.
The group's policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become due.
The board receives rolling 12-month cash flow projections on a regular basis as well as information regarding cash balances. At the statement of financial position date, these projections indicated that the group expected to have sufficient liquid resources to meet its obligations under all reasonably expected circumstances.
There were no undrawn facilities at 31 March 2018 or 31 March 2017.
Capital risk management
Capital management
The Group's capital management objectives are to ensure the Group is appropriately funded to continue as a going concern and to provide an adequate return to shareholders commensurate with risk. The Group defines capital as being total shareholders equity. The Group has no external debt finance and hence gearing is not measured. The Group's capital structure is periodically reviewed and, if appropriate, adjustments are made in the light of expected future funding needs, changes in economic conditions, financial performance and changes in Group structure.
The Group adheres to the capital maintenance requirements as set out in the Companies Act.
Capital for the reporting periods under review is summarised as follows:
- Total equity: GBP(447,000) (2017 - GBP(655,000))
- Cash and cash equivalents: GBP61,000 (2017 - GBP117,000)
