The accompanying un-audited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021. Certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information were assessed regarding impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic as of December 31, 2020 and through the Quarterly Report dated February 11, 2021 using reasonably available information as of those dates. Those accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, the carrying value of long-lived tangible assets and the valuation allowances for tax assets. While the assessments resulted in no material impacts to the consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the Company believes the full impact of the pandemic remains uncertain and the Company will continue to assess if ongoing developments related to the pandemic may cause future material impacts to our consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and short-terms deposits totalling $11,410 and unused lines of credit of $6,187. We finance operations primarily through our existing cash balances, cash collected from operations, bank borrowings and capital lease financing. We believe these sources are sufficient to fund our operations for the foreseeable future. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020.

The Company’s operating results are presented based on the translation of foreign currencies using the respective quarter’s average exchange rate.

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Leases-Lessee

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842 introduces new requirements to increase transparency and comparability among organizations for leasing transactions for both lessees and lessors. It requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. These leases will be either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition.

The standard provided an alternative modified retrospective transition method. Under this method, the cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings is recognized on the date of adoption (July 1, 2019). The Company adopted ASC 842 as of July 1, 2019, and applied the alternative modified retrospective transition method requiring application of the new guidance to all leases existing at, or entered into on or after, the date of adoption i.e., July 1, 2019.

The Company applies the guidance in ASC 842 to individual leases of assets. When the Company receives substantially all the economic benefits from and directs the use of specified property, plant and equipment, transactions give rise to leases. The Company’s classes of assets include real estate leases.

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, current portion and long-term portion of operating leases in our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Finance leases are included in plant and equipment, current portion and long-term portion of finance leases in our consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has elected the practical expedient within ASC 842 to not separate lease and non-lease components within lease transactions for all classes of assets. Additionally, the Company has elected the short-term lease exception for all classes of assets, does not apply the recognition requirements for leases of 12 months or less, and recognizes lease payments for short-term leases as expense either straight-line over the lease term or as incurred depending on whether the lease payments are fixed or variable. These elections are applied consistently for all leases.

As part of applying the transition method, the Company has elected to apply the package of transition practical expedients within the new guidance. As required by the new standard, these expedients have been elected as a package and are consistently applied across the Company’s lease portfolio. Given this election, the Company need not reassess:

● whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases;

● the lease classification for any expired or existing leases;

● treatment of initial direct costs relating to any existing leases.

When discount rates implicit in leases cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the applicable incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to perform lease classification tests on lease components and to measure lease liabilities and ROU assets. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company was based on baseline rates and adjusted by the credit spreads commensurate with the Company’s secured borrowing rate over a similar term. At each reporting period when there is a new lease initiated, the rates established for that quarter will be used.

In applying the alternative modified retrospective transition method, the Company measured lease liabilities at the present value of the sum of remaining minimum rental payments (as defined under ASC Topic 840). The present value of lease liabilities has been measured using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates as of July 1, 2019 (the date of initial application). Additionally, ROU assets for these operating leases have been measured as the initial measurement of application lease liabilities adjusted for reinstatement liabilities.

Leases-Lessor

For the Company as lessor, all our leases will continue to be classified as operating leases under the new standard. We do not expect the new standard to have a material effect on our financial statements and we do not expect a significant change in our leasing activities between now and adoption.
