The directors provide you with the following corporate and operational review of the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as the Group) consisting of Volt Power Group Limited ("Volt" or "the Company") and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year ended 31 December 2021.
1. Summary
(a) Operations
Corporate & Administration
The salient Corporate activities during the period included:
- In February 2021, the Company and Wescone vendor(s) agreed terms for the settlement of all outstanding claims in the proceedings in connection with a WA Supreme Court Claim against the vendor of the Company's Wescone business for misleading and deceptive conduct without admission of fault by any party. The terms of the settlement provided for the payment to Volt of $1.3 million in two instalments. The first instalment of $1.0 million was received by Volt on 16 February 2021 and the second and final instalment of $0.3 million was received on 19 August 2021.
- In April 2021, the Company moved its operational activities from office and workshop accommodation provided by Volt substantial shareholder, GenusPlus Group Pty Ltd (Genus) to the Company's new leased office and workshop accommodation located at 6 Bradford Street, Kewdale WA 6105 (New Premises). The Volt Board again expresses its gratitude to the Genus Board and shareholders for the provision of office and workshop accommodation from January 2020 to April 2021. The New Premises are ideally suited to the Company's activities providing office and workshop accommodation for all the Volt Group's business activities.
- During 2021, the Company provided $540,000 in new funding to EcoQuip Australia Pty Limited (EcoQuip) increasing its ownership in EcoQuip from 67% to 70%. EcoQuip utilised these funds to complete the manufacture of 25 EcoQuip Mobile Solar Light Towers (MSLT) to be deployed on Barrow Island for Chevron Australia under a new 5-Year Master Dry Hire Agreement executed with AGC Industries Pty Limited (AGC) dated 26 July 2021.
- During 2021, the Company also undertook acquisition due diligence activities on a proprietary technology advantaged mining services business to inorganically complement its existing businesses. The Company maintains a disciplined approach to due diligence and a strict acquisition opportunity conduct policy. The Company was unable to reach mutually acceptable terms for a transaction with the vendors to proceed. The Company engaged third party advisers to assist with due diligence, with these due diligence costs totalling ~$120,000.
ATEN (100% owned) - Waste heat to zero emission power generation
The ATEN Technology and achievements during the period are as follows:
- The ATEN Technology is a baseload, zero emission waste heat to electricity generation solution that utilizes low grade industrial waste heat vented to atmosphere as its energy source. The ATEN Technology requires no water and operates autonomously without a requirement for operating personnel.
