1 Welcme t the ideas bm 7 December 2015 The gvernment unveils new $1.1 billin innvatin plan The gvernment has annunced a fur-year $1.1 billin innvatin package designed t drive an ideas bm in Australia. Acknwledging innvatin is at the heart f a strng ecnmy, the Natinal Innvatin and Science Agenda has put frward a package f initiatives in fur key areas: Taking the leap - the gvernment is supprting entrepreneurs by pening up new surces f finance, embracing risk taking n innvative ideas, and making mre f their public research; Wrking tgether - the gvernment is increasing cllabratin between industry and researchers t find slutins t real wrld prblems and t create jbs and grwth; Best and brightest - the gvernment is develping and attracting wrld-class talent fr the jbs f the future; and Leading by example - the gvernment will seek t lead by example by embracing innvatin and agility in the way they cnduct business. The measures in the Natinal Innvatin and Science Agenda aim t put Australia n the right track t becming a leading innvatr; pen t adapting and evlving t imprve the wellbeing and quality f life fr all Australians. These measures build upn existing initiatives targeted at innvatin and entrepreneurial activity, including the Entrepreneurs Prgramme, the Small Business and Jbs Package, Industry Grwth Centres, the R&D Tax Incentive, Cperative Research Centres and many mre. The fcus f this Alert is n the tax changes impacting n business, while making brad reference t ther elements f the innvatin plan. 1. TAKING THE LEAP T ften businesses cannt access finance, r fear f failure gets in the way f translating their great ideas t cmmercial realities. The gvernment will seek t change Australia s fear f failure culture and help businesses find capital which is critical fr the digital ecnmy. Increasing access t cmpany lsses The gvernment plans t put in place upcming refrms that will help businesses take sensible risks and ultimately encurage investment and grwth in Australia s innvative businesses. 1
2 T help businesses innvate and grw withut fear f lsing ut, the gvernment is planning t be mre flexible in relatin t access t cmpany lsses: The current same business test will be relaxed t allw businesses t access prir year lsses when they make minr changes t their peratins. This will encurage entrepreneurship by allwing lssmaking cmpanies t seek ut new pprtunities t return t prfitability; As part f these refrms the same business test will be replaced by a new and mre flexible predminantly similar business test ; and Under the predminantly similar business test cmpanies will be able t enter int new business activities and transactins withut facing a tax penalty. The predminantly similar business test will apply t lsses made in the current and future incme years; current tests will cntinue t apply t existing lsses. Intangible asset depreciatin Innvative cmpanies are mre likely t have many intangible r knwledge-based assets (such as patents, trademarks, cpyrights and business mdels). Unlike tangible assets, hwever, acquired intangible assets with a statutry effective life cannt be self-assessed t bring their tax life in line with their ecnmic life. This can reduce the depreciatin benefit and increase the cst f investment in these assets; discuraging investrs. Changing the tax treatment fr acquired intangible assets will remve this deterrent and help innvative cmpanies t market their intellectual prperty and ther intangible assets. This initiative prvides businesses with: A new ptin t self-assess the tax effective life f acquired intangible assets. This will better align the tax effective life with the true life f the assets, meaning the same tax treatment will be available fr acquired intangible assets as is available fr ther types f assets; and The ptin t cntinue using the existing statutry effective life f the asset. Faster depreciatin will decrease the csts f investment in these assets, allwing cmpanies t better explit and cmmercialise them. The changes will apply t assets acquired frm 1 July Changes t Venture Capital Limited Partnerships Venture Capital Limited Partnerships (VCLPs) are wrld-class investment vehicles that prvide tax exemptins fr thse investing in innvative cmpanies at the early and grwth stages f a start-up. At these stages f develpment, mst cmpanies have received ne r mre runds f initial funding but dn t yet have the scale r track-recrd needed t g public r attract buy-in frm institutinal investrs. Refrming VCLPs will make them mre internatinally cmpetitive and will attract greater levels f venture capital investment. Under the new arrangements: Partners in a new Early Stage Venture Capital Limited Partnership (ESVCLP) will receive a 10 per cent nn-refundable tax ffset n capital invested in start-up cmpanies; The maximum fund size fr new ESVCLPs will be increased frm $100 millin t $200 millin; and ESVCLPs will n lnger need t divest frm a cmpany when its value exceeds $250 millin. Changes t bth the VCLP and ESVCLP will relax eligibility and investment requirements t allw managers t undertake a brader range f investment activities and greater diversity f investrs. 2
3 The new arrangements will take effect frm 1 July 2016 as sn as the enabling legislatin may be passed int law. Refrms t Emplyee Share Schemes Emplyee Share Schemes (ESS) give emplyees shares r rights t acquire shares in the cmpany as part f their remuneratin. As this invests the emplyee s interests in the success f the cmpany, it nt nly attracts the best and brightest but means that start-ups can prvide the prmise f a greater remuneratin dwn the track. The new refrms will: Limit the requirement fr disclsure dcuments given t emplyees under an ESS t be made available t the public. This will allw therwise nn-disclsing cmpanies t ffer shares t their emplyees withut having t reveal cmmercially sensitive infrmatin t cmpetitrs; and Make ESS mre user-friendly fr innvative cmpanies, allwing them t attract mtivated staff withut a substantial initial utlay. New ESS legislatin is expected t be intrduced in the first half f Certain imprvements in the ESS rules, particularly in respect f rights and the intrductin f small start-up cncessins have already been perative frm 1 July refer t ur ESS tax alert here. Tax incentives fr investrs The perid between the initial funding and when a start-up begins generating revenue can be a challenging time. The gvernment is making sme changes t the tax system t incentivise investrs t direct their funds twards high-grwth, innvative start-ups. The measures include cncessinal tax treatments fr investrs wh supprt innvative start-ups, including: A 20 per cent nn-refundable tax ffset based n the amunt f their investment capped at $200,000 per investr, per year; and A 10 year capital gains tax exemptin fr investments held fr three years. The measures will target cmpanies: That have incrprated during the last three incme years; Are nt listed n any stck exchange; and Have expenditure less than $1 millin and incme less than $200,000 in the previus incme year. The scheme is based n the successful UK Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme which raised ver AUD$500 millin in start-up investment fr almst 2,900 cmpanies in its first tw years. The scheme is expected t begin during 2016 as sn as the enabling legislatin may be passed int law. Nn-tax prpsals in Taking the leap Inslvency laws refrm The gvernment will be striving t seek a better balance between encuraging entrepreneurship and prtecting creditrs by: reducing the current default bankruptcy perid frm three years t ne year; intrducing a safe harbur t prtect directrs frm persnal liability fr inslvent trading if they appint a restructuring adviser t develp a turnarund plan fr the cmpany; and 3
4 making ips fact clauses, which allw cntracts t be terminated slely due t an inslvency event and ften lead t a cmpany s liquidatin, unenfrceable if a cmpany is undertaking a restructure. A prpsal paper will be released in Legislatin is expected t pass in mid Other prpsals Other prpsals included are: Access t crwd-surced equity funding; The gvernment will intrduce laws t prvide access t crwd-surced equity funding in Australia t prvide a diverse range f funding ptins fr businesses and will remve the cmpetitive disadvantage cmpared t their internatinal cunterparts. This will be available t available t Australian public cmpanies with a turnver and grss assets f less than $5 millin and individuals seeking t invest using the crwd-surced equity funding platfrm will be limited t a maximum amunt f $10,000 per cmpany, per year.
