SmoothPay Acquisition Helps Grow
PaySauce ARR by 49% YoY

Lower Hutt, New Zealand - 24 November 2021

PaySauce (NZX:PYS) shares its FY2022 Interim Report, with CEO Asantha Wijeyeratne

noting the solid contribution the SmoothPay acquisition made to annualised recurring

revenue.

HIGHLIGHTS


Acquisition of SmoothPay for 1% dilution of share capital


Net promoter score (NPS) of 60


11 : 1 LTV:CAC ratio


PayNow delivered over $0.33 million of Earned Wage Access


49% YoY ARR growth


69% YoY total customer LTV growth

THE ACQUISITION OF SMOOTHPAY DELIVERED


Cash generation through payroll services in NZ and 13 overseas jurisdictions;


Over 1,300 customers with opportunity to increase average revenue per user;


Expansion of the total addressable market to Australia and the Pacific Islands.

Wijeyeratne reflects on the progress in this period:
“We’ve kept our foot to the floor on feature based growth, improving the product,

building for scale, and continuing to grow our customer base and revenue. We’ve

continued to support our people - our staff, partners, suppliers and shareholders - as

COVID continues to create anxiety. We’ve also saved thousands of kiwi stress from

predatory payday lenders, by giving customers' employees access to wages before

payday with the help of our partners at BNZ through our PayNow feature.”

SmoothPay was our first acquisition. We’re integrating our product suite and rolling

out pricing structure changes with the goal of extracting the untapped potential of

this customer base. The acquisition has been an important strategic step as it

delivered us our first dollar of overseas revenue and opened the pathway for

accelerated growth through international expansion, all from our offices in Wellington.

It's also given us experience in acquisition of competitors and merging clients.”

Acquiring new customers (Customer acquisition costs up 36% YoY);

General and administration costs were held flat at just over $1m compared to the same

period last year.

As well as the accelerated growth from the acquisition of SmoothPay, all of the key

underlying customer metrics continue to trend positively. The introduction of three

monthly subscriptions, tailored to the needs of customers increased overall processing

fees per customer. The increase in processing fees offset the equivalent decline in

Interest Income per customer over the period to hold the overall Average Revenue per

User (ARPU) flat at $59.

OUTLOOK

Wijeyeratne on the outlook for the coming six months:

“We’re seeing a return from the pricing and promotion decisions we made in the first

half of the year. By introducing tiered pricing and being clear on the value created,

customers can choose what’s right for their business and that’s helped to drive an

increased share of wallet. We’ve also applied those pricing principles to align the

SmoothPay product with PaySauce’s lowest tiered monthly subscription called Simple.

We’re continuing to focus on building for scale. By partnering with industry experts in

new markets, we’re able to further add value by removing friction for our customers.

I’ll also look forward to sharing more insights into how much we’ve saved everyday

working kiwis through the PayNow initiative - we may make no money out of it, but it

remains the feature I’m most proud of. Plus our customers love it”

Interim Report FY2022

Chair’s Letter

Dear fellow shareholders,

I’m pleased to present to you our Interim Report for

FY2022. I appreciate this is an interim report from an

interim chair but as you will see, there’s nothing interim

about how the PaySauce team (whom we call The

PayForce) are applying themselves to the opportunities

in front of us. The company has continued to double

down on strengthening our team, developing our

platform, and working hard towards cash-flow positivity

over the last six months.

In June we made our first acquisition - of the business

and assets of SmoothPay - a well-established New

Zealand payroll provider headquartered in Palmerston

North. As a result, we added more than 1,300 customers

from New Zealand, Australia and several Pacific Island

nations. This aligns with our longer term intentions

around international expansion despite the challenges

of COVID-19.

On behalf of shareholders, the board’s focus is to

support the team in their efforts to reach cash-flow

positivity as soon as possible and I’m pleased to see the

business continue to be prudent users of shareholder

funds, growing revenues more quickly than costs.

In October we farewelled Nick Lewis, who began with

PaySauce as an independent director, then continued

as our chair for the last two years. Nick provided strong

leadership and enthusiastic support to the team during

his tenure; overseeing the acquisition and helping

crystallise our product/market fit and chosen markets.

We were sad to lose him. I’m actively leading the

search for a new chair at present and hope to update

shareholders on this search early in the New Year.

In the 10 years I have been involved with SaaS

companies, the one theme I have found common to

all successful ones is to love your customers but more

importantly to love the problems that they face. I have

found this to be strongly evident at PaySauce where the

team is totally focused on the pain and obstacles their

clients face in ensuring that their people are paid in a

timely, transparent and flexible manner.

Recent product innovations we’ve rolled out to our

community of users focus on the pain of inflexibility.

These include earned wage access, rostering and

variable rate quantity factors. There are many more

still to come as we evolve from largely being a payroll

provider, to delivering a full suite of employment

solutions on the PaySauce platform.

My thanks to Asantha and the PayForce for their passion

for making people’s lives easier which manifests in a

great product, a vibrant team and a strong fan following.

Thanks also to my fellow directors for their diligence and

advice, and to our customers for keeping us honest as

we continue to grow. Finally, let me give our thanks to

you, our shareholders, for helping us to drive PaySauce

into the future.

Sincerely,

Mike O’Donnell

Interim Chair

CEO’s Letter

To our shareholders, customers, partners and supporters,

there are so many highlights to share with you but in

such a short space!

Our acquisition of SmoothPay this year accelerated our

growth through the addition of new customers. For me,

though, the additional advantage of having one of the

country’s top payroll developers in our business is just as

noteworthy. We’ve added smarts that only come with

years of experience into our development team and

we’re already seeing the benefits. This further assists in

our mission to take out the friction that exists in how

employers and employees interact with each other

while being compliant with legislation.

Acquisition notwithstanding, our evolution from start-up

to scale-up continues at pace. Our customer diversity

reflects a broader pool of partners and more holistic

marketing investments. We’re implementing internal

systems to streamline marketing, sales and support

that will enable our team to expedite the sales process

and increase conversions. We’ve added team members

with experience in scaling businesses, and invested in

our current crew to ensure they’re equipped with the

mindset for growth.

I’d like to acknowledge Nick Lewis’s leadership as our

Chair until last month; he’s been with the PaySauce

family for a long time originally as an early investor who

then joined the board before finally becoming our chair.

His insights on our scale up strategies were invaluable,

and his energy at the Board table infectious. I will miss

him.

I continue to be in awe of the positive effect of our

PayNow feature for employees, even before we

accelerate promotion of this across the country next

year. By the end of September, working kiwis had

already accessed over $330,000 of their earned wages

before payday, with no fees and no interest. That has

since increased to over $770,000. We offer this service

for free because we believe we can contribute to

solving the problem of predatory payday lenders in

our community. Our estimates indicate that payday

lenders would have charged a minimum of $600,000

in fees, penalties and interest for that same service. We

are proud to lead the Earned Wage Access movement

in New Zealand. Delivering PayNow without interest or

charges is only possible due to the marvellous support

of BNZ and their mission to disrupt predatory lending in

NZ..

This year continues to test everyone. Families are

struggling with lockdowns and anxiety about the

ongoing effects of the pandemic. Businesses are

grappling with the uncertainties around vaccine

mandates, and the supply chain pressures caused by

ongoing border controls and Auckland’s lockdown. We

feel for all those families who are impacted. Around the

world, along with dealing with the pandemic, violence

in Afghanistan shocked us all and the global sea levels

rose to new highs.

All of these events are raising important questions

about the role of business in society. What can we do to

make a difference? How do we in business demonstrate

responsible leadership? How can companies like ours

deliver on our commitments to provide value to all

stakeholders? How do we support and empower our

people - in all our communities - so that they thrive?

These are the questions that would keep me up at

night if I wasn’t surrounded by a team of people that

continue to show tremendous resilience, responsibility

and resolve to support one another, our customers

and our communities, and in doing so, have served our

shareholders well. I’m incredibly proud of them.

With gratitude,

Asantha Wijeyeratne

The Year So Far

PaySauce has five core values that support the

vision, shape the culture and reflect what matters

to the business, our customers and shareholders.

The PayForce makes decisions that are a reflection

of those values, always directed towards a specific

purpose. We’re looking at the year so far through the

lens of those core values:

Do good and be honest

“We lend a hand and we give a dang.”

PayNow is a unique feature in the PaySauce mobile

app that lets employees access the money they’ve

already earned, effectively letting them choose their

own payday on demand. Already more than $770,000

of earned wages have been accessed by employees -

without penalties. PayNow without interest or charges

is only possible due to the marvelous support of BNZ

Community Finance, part of their mission to disrupt

predatory lending in New Zealand. We’re proud of the

pilot so far and are looking forward to a full promotion

kicking off before we start our new financial year.

PaySauce provides free payroll to charities all across

the country - we now support more than 90 charities,

sporting organisations and NFPs to do good in the

special ways they do it. There’s now over 30 charities

represented in our Payroll Giving app too - who receive

almost $7,000 each month from the lovely employees

using PaySauce.

Giving a dang extends internally too; this year we’ve

renewed our licence as a living wage employer and

implemented systems to ensure our remote and locked-

down teams are engaged and supported.

Respect and Include

“We make technology but our biggest focus

is on people”

He Tangata, He Tangata, He Tangata. This year, like last

year, we’re doing everything we can to support our

people - our staff, partners, suppliers and shareholders -

as COVID continues to create anxiety. We’re particularly

acknowledging and sending aroha to those in Auckland

- which includes several of our staff - who’ve done it

tougher than most.

Our newly created product management role ensures

we put the customer first in our development processes.

Investment into efficient internal systems is taking the

pressure off our remote teams and our hardworking

phone support staff, who’re often handling 400+ calls a

day.

Knowing the pressure our customers are under inspires

us to find ways to make their lives easier - and taking

the burden of compliance off their shoulders is a no-

brainer. We were proud to hear recently that several of

our customers passed an audit by the labour inspector

(a hugely stressful experience for any employer), proving

we’ve got their backs with our compliance tools.

Fun and Fresh

“We’re serious about what we do - but we

don’t take ourselves too seriously.”

From the largest group of nominations in its history,

PaySauce was honoured to be a finalist in this year’s

Wellington Gold Awards (again!) and we took our hard

working team for a night to celebrate with friends and

colleagues. If we had to come second to anyone, we

were proud that it was long standing strategic partners,

Farm Focus.

The team got out and about in between lockdowns

at several events including the iconic Fieldays, where

we caught up with customers and gave attendees the

scoop on Xero for Farming, our alliance with Xero and

Figured. It was an extra special year for us - when we

attended back in 2018 we were a teeny new player that

no one had heard of. This year we had a whole crew on

site, and got to shine in the main pavilion with our big

brand peers alongside. We were super proud, and it’s

all thanks to the support of our customers, partners and

investors.

Interim Report FY2022

Simple and Smart

“We work really hard to make tricky

stuff easy, and we proactively solve real

problems.”

Hot off the press is our latest NPS - a healthy score of

60 with 73.94% of those surveyed being promoters. The

feedback highlighted the calibre and accessibility of our

support team and a real sense of being in safe hands:

We know our biggest competitor remains spreadsheets

and paper-based wage books - ‘the way we’ve always

done it’ - but see more people realising how hard it is

to be compliant these days, and that PaySauce is the

simple, smart alternative.

Problem solving is at the heart of making tricky stuff

easy. Helping staff get access to the wages they’ve

already earned led to the creation of PayNow. Ensuring

staff know what shifts they are working led to building

the rostering tool into staff’s PaySauce mobile app.

We’re always on the lookout to remove employment

friction between employers and their people through

leveraging other technical expertise. This helps us have

answers for the tricky issues for rural sub-sectors like

horticulture and viticulture, which we can now pursue

directly and through partnerships.

Resourceful and Results

Oriented

“We’re motivated by success and we’re

always working to create the returns to fuel

a healthy, sustainable business.”

We remain focused custodians of our shareholders’

funds, having improved earnings before tax,

depreciation and amortisation by $88k YoY. Three

key factors contributed to the 53% improvement in

processing fees:

• The structural change to pricing to have three

monthly subscriptions;

• Accelerated growth of organic customers - 26%

increase in customers in the period (FY21 H1: 24%);

and

• The acquisition of SmoothPay.

The increased processing fees compensated for the

reduced interest income earned (down 26% YoY) in the

low interest rate environment. This allowed the Average

Revenue per User to remain at $59 in line with FY21 H1.

The resulting increase in ARR to $3.2m is a key milestone

for us - and the positive trend towards our Premium

and Standard plans, along with an increase in average

employee numbers indicates our efforts to diversify out

from a dairy payroll provider to a fintech for small and

medium businesses are working.

Recurring revenue increased 45% year on year, and we

continued to invest some of those increased revenues

back into the business. Overall expenses increased just

19% with incremental spend weighted heavily towards

serving our existing customers (Cost to Serve: up 47%

YoY), acquiring new customers (Customer Acquisition:

Up 36% YoY) and improving our product (Research and

Development: up 35% YoY). Conversely, general and

administration costs were curtailed to increase just 2%

YoY. We’re always looking for ways to do more with less,

though; despite adding a little headcount in this period

we’ve increased our revenue per employee by 30%.

All these investments have been made with attention

to careful and prudent cash management. This was also

key for the acquisition of SmoothPay Limited where the

consideration was entirely in PYS shares, equating to a

1% ownership in PaySauce.

So easy, no hassle for me

and I know it’s all legal and

quote-left

telescope

Looking Forward

We’ve executed a price change for our Starter Plan

- a plan no longer available to new customers. The

increased price better reflects the value these customers

receive when compared to our current pricing plans.

In addition, the customers we acquired via SmoothPay

are gradually being transitioned onto pricing plans that

align with our Simple product, beginning in December.

We’re working now to commercialise the SmoothPay

opportunity by streamlining pricing and packages

across the two product lines - goPayroll and PaySauce.

From 1 December, SmoothPay customers will pay the

same as PaySauce Simple customers, demonstrating

an upgrade path to PaySauce Standard and Premium

and ultimately additional fintech solutions for those

customers.

We’re watching the wires for any legislative changes on

the drawing board which, if made legal, could deliver an

uplift as a result of features we already have in market.

Interim Report FY2022

The above categories are

explained below:

Processing Fees

This category represents the revenue generated from

customers who pay a monthly or annual subscription

to use our software as a service. There are no significant

estimates and revenue is recognised when the software

service is supplied.

Interest Income

This category represents the interest earned from funds

held on behalf of our payroll customers which are held

on deposit. As customers pay their PAYE through to us

each pay run, we hold these funds and generate interest

on the balance before the payment is due to Inland

Revenue. As interest earned on these funds grows

directly in relation to our customers, we consider this an

additional stream of recurring revenue.

Cost to Serve

The category includes those costs which are related to

serving our customers through the use of our software

products, and the availability of our customer support

team. Costs included are those such as cloud hosting

expenses, maintenance of our software products, bank

fees charged per customer transaction, and customer

support.

Other Revenue

This category includes revenue that is not recurring

revenue and includes grants received and other services

revenue.

Other Interest Income

This category includes non-recurring interest earned on

deposits and investments other than payroll customer

funds.

Customer Acquisition

This category includes those costs which are related

to acquiring new customers. Costs included are those

such as sales and marketing, implementation and

onboarding of customers to our system, discounts and

referral fees. These costs are expensed as incurred as

they do not relate to any specific customer or contract

for services.

Research & Development

This category includes those costs which are related to

researching and developing new solutions and solving

problems for our existing and future customers. Costs

included are predominantly software development

salaries.

It should be noted that measuring these costs between

years is not an accurate reflection of the actual spending

on research and development for PaySauce due to

the timing of these costs being capitalised. The reader

should also consider the amount of intangible assets

recognised during the financial year as detailed in the

full financial statements.

General & Administration

This category captures all of the other elements of

running the business. Costs included are those such as

management remuneration, director fees, office running

costs, finance and administration, legal and consulting

expenses, and other overhead costs.


Earnings Before Tax, Depreciation and

Amortisation

This is calculated by adding back depreciation,

amortisation and income tax expense to the amounts

reported in the NZ IFRS-based financial statements.

PaySauce believes that this measure provides useful

insights to measure the performance of PaySauce as a

SaaS business.

Earnings Before Tax, Depreciation and

Amortisation Margin %

Earnings Before Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation

Margin % calculates Earnings Before Tax, Depreciation

and Amortisation as a percentage of Recurring Revenue.

SaaS Metrics & Definitions

These SaaS metrics are prepared and defined to provide

readers with useful information about the performance

of PaySauce as a SaaS business.

Non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (Non-

GAAP) measures have been included, and should not

be viewed in isolation, nor considered as substitutes for

measures reported in accordance with New Zealand

Equivalents to International Financial Reporting

Standards (NZ IFRS).

Recurring Revenue

Recurring revenue is revenue that is expected to repeat

each period into the future.

For PaySauce, this is directly linked to the number

of customers and the pays that they run using the

PaySauce payroll products. There are currently two

sources of recurring revenue - processing fees and

interest income.

There is a direct correlation between the number

of customers processing payroll with PaySauce, and

the amounts of revenue derived from these streams

(allowing some variation due to elements such as

interest rates and number of employees per pay run).

There is no significant estimate or judgement applied

by management when recognising revenue arising from

these streams.

MRR

Monthly recurring revenue is the total recurring revenue

for the last calendar month of the reporting period.

ARR

Annual recurring revenue is the monthly recurring

revenue (MRR), multiplied by 12.

Gross Margin

The gross margin, when discussed as a SaaS term, is the

recurring revenue of the business, less the cost to serve

customers. This is often then expressed as a percentage,

where the gross margin is divided by the recurring

revenue.

Churn (monthly)

Churn is expressed as a percentage and is calculated as

the number of customers who did not run a pay in the

month, but ran at least one pay in the previous month,

divided by the total number of customers at the end of

the previous month.


ARPU

Average revenue per user (monthly) is the total recurring

revenue for the month, divided by the total customers

processing payroll that month.

CAC (per addition)

Customer acquisition cost (per addition) is the total cost

of acquiring customers for the period, divided by the

number of new customers processing payroll that were

acquired during the period.

LTV

Lifetime value is the estimated value of a customer

over its lifetime with PaySauce. This is calculated by

taking the ARPU multiplied by the gross margin %, then

divided by the churn %.

Total Customer LTV

Total customer lifetime value is the lifetime value

multiplied by the total customers.

LTV : CAC Ratio

This ratio reflects the return on investment for customer

acquisition. It is calculated by dividing the lifetime value

of a customer by the customer acquisition cost (per

addition).

Revenue per FTE

This metric measures the total revenue generated

over the period, divided by the number of full-time

equivalent (FTE) employees at PaySauce at the end of

the period.

Notes to the

Interim Condensed

Consolidated

Financial Statements

For the six months ended 30 September 2021

1. General information

PaySauce Limited (the “Company” or “PaySauce”), is

a for-profit limited liability company, domiciled and

incorporated in New Zealand and registered under the

Companies Act 1993. The company is an FMC Reporting

Entity for the purpose of the Financial Markets Conduct

Act 1993. PaySauce is listed on the New Zealand Stock

Exchange (“NZX”) that trades under the ticker PYS.

The Group provides Software as a Service (SaaS)

delivering employment and payment solutions to

small and medium-sized businesses. As well as the

core payroll solution (with fully automated banking,

accounting and pay-day filing) the Group provides

digital employment contracts, rosters, timesheets and

earned wage access for employees - accessible via

smartphone.

The interim condensed consolidated financial

statements for the Company and its subsidiaries (the

“Group”) for the six months ended 30 September 2021

were authorised in accordance with a resolution of

the directors for issue on 23 November 2021 and are

unaudited.

2. Basis of preparation

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated

financial statements for the Group for the six months

ended 30 September 2021 have been prepared in

accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted

Accounting Practice (“NZ GAAP”) and comply with

the requirements of the New Zealand Equivalent to

International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial

Reporting (“NZ IAS 34”), on the assumption that the

Group is a going concern, and should be read in

conjunction with the audited consolidated financial

statements for the Group as at and for the year ended 31

March 2021.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated

financial statements have been prepared using the

same significant accounting policies and methods of

computation as, and should be read in conjunction with,

the financial statements and related notes included in

the audited consolidated financial statements for the

Group for the year ended 31 March 2021, other than as

disclosed in the sections below.

There are no seasonality or cyclicality influences on the

results of the Group.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated

financial statements are presented in New Zealand

Dollars (NZD).

3. Additional accounting

policies

NZ IFRS 15 - SmoothPay Annual

Subscription Revenue

Processing Fees - SmoothPay Subscriptions

Revenue from SmoothPay Subscriptions is recognised

at a point in time when the performance obligation

has been satisfied and is based on the amount of the

transaction price that is allocated to the performance

obligation. The transaction price is the amount of

consideration to which the Group expects to be

entitled in exchange for providing the service to the

customer. There is no significant financing component

to the contracts, and payment is due at the point the

performance obligation has been met. The performance

obligation for SmoothPay Subscriptions is considered to

be met when the customer is provided access to use the

goPayroll product each month.

4. Use of critical accounting

estimates and judgements

The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated

financial statements in conformity with NZ IFRS requires

management to make judgements, estimates and

assumptions that affect the application of accounting

policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,

income and expenses. Actual results may differ from

these judgements, estimates and assumptions.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on

an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates

are recognised in the period in which the estimates are

revised and in any future periods affected.

Significant judgements, estimates, and assumptions

made by management in the preparation of these

financial statements are outlined below, or within the

financial statement notes to which they relate.

COVID-19

Management considers that COVID-19 did not have a

significant negative impact on the business operations,

financial performance, nor the financial position of the

Group for the six months ended 30 September 2021

Management has made this judgement by looking at

a range of indicators - and has not seen any material

negative impacts on the following key indicators:

• Customer churn

• Customer size

• Registrations and sign-ups for new customers

• Aged receivables

• Losses of major partnerships.

Management continues to assess any impact on the

business operations, financial performance, and financial

position of the Group. At this stage, management does

not consider there to be any significant risk to the

Group. The factors which management considered in

forming this judgement are as follows:

• PaySauce’s business operations are always ready to

operate with minimal interruption upon enactment

of our Business Continuity Plan (BCP);

• The PaySauce product is cloud-based, which

enables customers to continue to use the service

uninterrupted when they enact their BCP;

• PaySauce’s customer base predominantly consists

of businesses from New Zealand’s agricultural

primary industry, one of the least impacted sectors

in New Zealand;

• PaySauce has not seen customers request deferred

payment options, partly due to the nature of our

billing (at a point in time as the service is provided,

automatically deducted), and that the cost is

relatively small on a monthly per customer basis

compared to other business expenses;

• Payroll is the core of our service provision, and is an

essential service for New Zealand businesses.

Going concern

The interim condensed consolidated financial

statements have been prepared on a going concern

basis.

The Group made a net loss before tax of $939,222 for the

six months ended 30 September 2021 (2020: $945,975),

had equity at 30 September 2021 of $1,841,470 (31 March

2021: $2,432,664) and net current assets/(liabilities) of

$239,935 (31 March 2021: $1,410,727). The Group does not

currently generate sufficient revenues to meet operating

costs and the Group does not operate a facility of debt

to draw upon.

The Directors consider after making due enquiry and

having regard to the circumstances which they consider

reasonably likely to affect the Group for the foreseeable

future, which is not less than 12 months from the date

these financial statements are approved for issue, that

the going concern assumption is valid.

The Group’s ability to meet forecasted financial

performance will depend on the rate of growth in

revenue from customers, primarily through customer

acquisitions.

The uncertainty of meeting forecasted financial growth

creates a material uncertainty that may cast doubt on

PaySauce’s ability to continue as a going concern and

26
PaySauce Limited

27

Interim Report FY2022

therefore PaySauce may be unable to realise its assets

and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of

business. Notwithstanding the uncertainty in meeting

forecast growth the Directors are confident that

PaySauce remains a going concern.

Key judgements and estimates

Capitalisation of intangible assets

Management considers the time and associated salary

cost of development staff to fall under the classification

of development expenditure for assessment purposes

in accordance with the principles outlined in the

intangible assets accounting policy in note 2(h) in the

audited consolidated financial statements for the Group

for the year ended 31 March 2021. No weighting of

overheads is applied in these calculations.

Accounting for finite life intangible assets

At each reporting date, the useful lives and residual

values of finite life intangible assets are reviewed for

indicators of impairment. As at 30 September 2021,

the assets were assessed for impairment, taking into

account the condition of the assets, expected period

of use of the assets by the Group, and expected

disposal proceeds from any future sale of the assets.

Management assessed that there were no indicators of

impairment.

New assets acquired during the period were assessed by

management as having useful lives as follows:

• Acquired customer relationships - 5 years.

• Acquired software - 5 years.

Development in progress has been tested for

impairment by reviewing the nature of the events

that originally gave rise to the recognition of the asset,

the estimation of future generation of cash flows and

any anticipated changes to the business or product

circumstances. Management concluded that there was

no impairment of this asset as at 30 September 2021.

per share, a net raise of $1.153 million after directly

attributable costs.

ii. On 15 May 2020: PaySauce completed the final

iii. On 31 May 2021: PaySauce acquired the business

and assets of SmoothPay Limited. PaySauce issued

1,416,164 ordinary shares as consideration for the

purchase, issued at a price of $0.2648 per share,

totalling a purchase price of $0.375 million. Directly

attributable costs totalled $0.027 million, bringing

the net share issue to $0.348 million.

All ordinary shares have no par value. They have equal

voting rights and share equally in dividends and surplus

on liquidation.

Dividends

No dividends were declared or paid during the

reporting period (Sept 2020: None).

Capital Risk Management

The Group considers its capital to comprise its ordinary

share capital, accumulated retained earnings.

When managing capital, management’s objective

is to achieve optimal long term capital returns to

shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

Management also aims to maintain a capital structure

that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the

Group.

8. Earnings / (loss) per share

There are no financial instruments on issue that will

dilute the basic earnings per share amounts for the six

months ended 30 September 2021.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing

the profit / (loss) attributable to equity holders of the

Company by the weighted average number of ordinary

shares on issue during the period.

17. Segment reporting

The Group is organised into one reportable operating

segment only, being SaaS based employment and

payment solutions to small and medium-sized New

Zealand businesses. As well as the core payroll solution

(with fully automated banking, accounting and pay-

day filing) the Group provides digital employment

contracts, rosters, timesheets and earned wage access

for employees - accessible via smartphone. The chief

operating decision maker has been identified as

the Board of Directors, as it makes all key strategic

resource allocation decisions (such as those concerning

acquisition, divestment and significant capital

expenditure).

The group had a single operating segment as at 30

September 2021. The Group’s chief operating decision

maker has determined that, based on the information

they use for the purposes of allocating resources and

assessing performance, the Group itself continues to

form a single operating segment after the acquisition

of SmoothPay. The segment result is reflected in the

financial statements.

18. Funds due to customers and

IRD

As a PAYE intermediary, PaySauce collects funds from

clients which are payable to both clients’ employees

(as the employees’ net wages and salaries) and the IRD

(as the applicable PAYE, student loan and other IRD

liabilities). These funds are included in PaySauce’s cash

and deposit balances and in accordance with section

RP6 of the Income Tax Act 2007, PaySauce can earn

interest on these funds, but the funds must only be

used as follows:

• Payment of net salary or wages to employees of

PaySauce’s clients.

• Payment of IRD obligations resulting from pays

run on PaySauce software to the IRD, including

PAYE deductions, student loan deductions,

superannuation contributions and any other

amount of tax withheld from a payment of salary or

wages to IRD.

Under the financial reporting standards movements

in these funds do not meet the definition of either

investing or financing activities and so must be classified

as operating cash flows. However as stated above the

use of these funds is restricted and they cannot be used

to cover other PaySauce expenses, the company has

therefore presented operating cash flows in the Cash

Flow Statement as both before and after this movement

in funds.

Interim Report FY2022

19. Business combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the

acquisition method. The acquisition method involves

recognising at acquisition date the identifiable

assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-

controlling interest, separate from Goodwill. The cost

of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of

the consideration transferred, which is measured at

acquisition date fair value.

The Group acquired the business and assets of

SmoothPay Limited on 31 May 2021. SmoothPay

provides cloud-based payroll software as a service

solutions to New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific

Islands. The acquisition was undertaken to align with

PaySauce’s strategic objective of accelerating customer

growth - expanding the group’s market share in New

Zealand, and now to overseas markets.

The consideration and identifiable net assets in the

acquisition are measured at fair value. As the transaction

was a purchase of business assets and liabilities rather

reporting period

No adjusting or significant non-adjusting events have

occurred between the reporting date and the date of

authorisation.

This allocation is currently provisional and will be

finalised by year end 31 March 2022.

than equity, there was no non-controlling interest to

consider. The fair value of the purchase consideration

of SmoothPay was $0.375 million. This consisted of

PaySauce (NZX:PYS) ordinary shares issued at a value of

$0.375 million. The volume of the 1,416,164 shares issued

was based on the 20-day volume weighted average

share price of PaySauce preceding the transaction date,

$0.2648 per share. The difference between the fair value

of the consideration and the fair value of the net assets

acquired was not material, therefore no Goodwill has

been recognised.

The acquisition related costs consisted of legal,

consulting, and share issue costs totalling $0.027 million

which were offset against the share capital issued,

reducing the net increase in share capital to $0.348

million.

The acquisition accounting has resulted in the following
