Trade receivables include amounts
 
due from customers
 
which generally have
 
a very short-term
 
life from
 
date of invoice
 
or service
provided to settlement. The duration
 
is less than a year in all cases and
 
generally less than 30 days in many
 
instances. The short-term
nature
 
of
 
these
 
exposures
 
often
 
results
 
in
 
balances
 
at
 
month-end
 
that
 
are
 
disproportionately
 
small
 
compared
 
to
 
the
 
total
 
invoiced
amounts.
 
The
 
month-end
 
outstanding
 
balance
 
are
 
more
 
volatile
 
than
 
the
 
monthly
 
invoice
 
amounts
 
because
 
they
 
are
 
affected
 
by
operational timing issues and
 
the fact that a balance
 
is outstanding at month-end is
 
not necessarily an indication of
 
increased risk but
rather a matter of operational timing.
Credit risk in respect of trade receivables are generally not
 
significant and the Company has not developed a sophisticated model
for these basic
 
credit exposures. The
 
Company determined to
 
use a lifetime
 
loss rate by
 
expressing write-off experience as
 
a percentage
of corresponding
 
invoice amounts
 
(as opposed
 
to outstanding
 
balances). The
 
allowance for credit
 
losses related to
 
these receivables
has
 
been
 
calculated
 
by
 
multiplying
 
the
 
lifetime
 
loss
 
rate
 
with
 
recent
 
invoice/origination
 
amounts.
 
Management
 
actively
 
monitors
performance of these receivables over
 
short periods of time. Different
 
balances have different rules to
 
identify an account in distress.
Once balances
 
in distress are
 
identified, specific
 
allowances are immediately
 
created. Subsequent
 
recovery from distressed
 
accounts
is not significant.
Current portion
 
of amount
 
outstanding related
 
to sale
 
of interest
 
in Carbon
 
represents an
 
amount due
 
related to
 
the sale
 
of the
loan in Carbon Tech
 
Limited (“Carbon”), with a face value of
 
$
3.0
 
million, which was sold in September
 
2022 for $
0.75
 
million, net
of an allowance
 
for doubtful loans
 
receivable of $
0.75
 
million. The Company has
 
not yet received
 
the outstanding $
0.75
 
million related
to the sale of the $
3.0
 
million loan, and continues to engage with the purchaser to recover the outstanding
 
balance.
Investment in
7.625
% of Cedar Cellular
 
Investment 1 (RF) (Pty) Ltd
8.625
% notes represents the
 
investment in a note which was
due to mature in
 
August 2022 and forms
 
part of Cell C’s
 
capital structure. The carrying
 
value as of each of
 
September 30, 2024,
 
and
June 30, 2024, respectively was $
0
 
(zero).
Other receivables include prepayments, deposits, income taxes receivable and
 
other receivables.

Allowance for credit losses
Microlending finance loans receivable
Microlending finance loans receivable is related to the Company’s
 
microlending operations in South Africa whereby it provides
unsecured short-term
 
loans to qualifying
 
customers. Loans to customers
 
have a tenor
 
of up to
six months
, with the majority
 
of loans
originated having
 
a tenor of
six months
. The Company
 
analyses this lending
 
book as a
 
single portfolio
 
because the
 
loans within the
portfolio have similar characteristics and management uses similar processes to monitor and assess
 
the credit risk of the lending book.
Refer to Note 4 related to the Company risk management process related to
 
these receivables.
 
The Company has operated this lending book for more than
five years
 
and uses historical default experience over the lifetime of
loans in order
 
to calculate a
 
lifetime loss rate
 
for the lending
 
book. The allowance
 
for credit losses
 
related to these
 
microlending finance
loans receivables
 
is calculated
 
by multiplying
 
the lifetime
 
loss rate
 
with the
 
month end
 
outstanding lending
 
book. The
 
lifetime loss
rate as of each of June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2024,
 
was
6.50
%. The performing component (that is, outstanding loan payments
not in arrears)
 
of the book
 
exceeds more than
98
%, of the
 
outstanding lending
 
book as of
 
each of
 
June 30,
 
2024 and
 
September 30,
2024.
Merchant finance loans receivable
Merchant finance loans
 
receivable is related
 
to the Company’s
 
Merchant lending activities
 
in South Africa
 
whereby it provides
unsecured
 
short-term loans
 
to qualifying
 
customers. Loans
 
to customers
 
have a
 
tenor of
 
up to
twelve months
, with
 
the majority
 
of
loans originated having a tenor of approximately
eight months
. The Company analyses this lending book as a single portfolio because
the loans within the portfolio have similar characteristics and management uses similar processes to monitor and assess the credit risk
of the lending book. Refer to Note 4 related to the Company risk management
 
process related to these receivables.
The
 
Company
 
has
 
recently
 
(in
 
the
 
past
three years
)
 
commenced
 
lending
 
to
 
merchant
 
customers
 
and
 
uses
 
historical
 
default
experience over
 
the lifetime of
 
loans generated thus
 
far in order
 
to calculate a
 
lifetime loss rate
 
for the lending
 
book. The allowance
for credit losses related to these merchant finance loans receivables
 
is calculated by adding together actual receivables in
 
default plus
multiplying the lifetime loss rate with the month-end outstanding lending book. The lifetime loss rate as of each of June 30, 2024 and
September 30, 2024, was approximately
1.18
%. The performing component (that is, outstanding loan payments not in arrears), under-
performing
 
component (that
 
is, outstanding
 
loan payments
 
that are
 
in arrears)
 
and non-performing
 
component (that
 
is, outstanding
loans
 
for
 
which
 
payments
 
appeared
 
to have
 
ceased)
 
of the
 
book represents
 
approximately
84
%,
15
% and
1
%,
 
respectively,
 
of the
outstanding
 
lending
 
book
 
as
 
of
 
June
 
30,
 
2024.
 
The
 
performing
 
component,
 
under-performing
 
component
 
and
 
non-performing
component of
 
the book represents
 
approximately
85
%,
15
% and
0
%, respectively,
 
of the outstanding
 
lending book
 
as of September
30, 2024.
