Financial Results Correction
30 September 2024 6:20 PM
Vection Technologies Ltd (ASX:VR1) announced revisions to its preliminary financial results for the year ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to adjustments in revenue recognition, share-based payments, and asset valuations, resulting in a larger-than-initially-reported loss.
Worse than expected
The revised financial results show a significantly larger loss than initially reported, primarily due to adjustments in revenue recognition, share-based payments, and asset valuations.
Summary
- Vection Technologies released a revised Appendix 4E, adjusting its preliminary financial results for the year ended June 30, 2024.
- The adjustments resulted in a decrease in sales revenue by $165,246, impacting contract liabilities and the Statement of Profit or Loss.
- Share-based payment reserve decreased by $1,059,641 due to adjustments related to performance rights.
- Trade receivables increased by $978,050 after reclassifying work in progress, while receivables write-offs totaled $25,348.
- The final valuation of the Invrsion acquisition led to changes in asset values and amortisation expense.
