In Australasia, we predominantly service defensive end markets, with customers in the grocery, fast moving consumer goods, agricultural and industrial markets. In North America, we target the food, healthcare/pharmaceutical, information technology and automotive industries. We partner with our customers to constantly expand and improve our offering, and invest in our business to help our customers grow their business. Since listing on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2013, Orora has invested approximately $225.0 million in initiatives to grow our business, with more than $60.0 million of this directly supporting customer-led growth initiatives. In the financial year ended 30 June 2016, Orora completed a $20.0 million upgrade at its dairy sack line in Victoria which is underpinned by a supply agreement with Fonterra. In February 2016, Orora announced that it would invest $42.0 million to expand its glass manufacturing capacity in South Australia by 60 million bottles each year, and opened two new distribution centres in North America, supported by large corporate accounts. We anticipate changing consumer preferences and trends, and deliver innovative packaging solutions that help our customers establish, maintain and grow leading positions in their respective markets. This customer-led approach ultimately drives our passion for innovation and generates shareholder value. In July 2015, Orora announced the establishment of the Global Innovation Initiative, a program to invest $45.0 million over three years in value-generating innovation, modernisation and productivity initiatives. In its first year, the Company has committed approximately $20.0 million in funding to a range of product and process innovations. During the period, Orora was also named in the BRW Most Innovative Companies list for the second year running, and was awarded the Best Process Innovation for proprietary technology developed to enable cost-effective randomised printing of beverage cans to support consumer promotions.

Certain financial information contained within this Annual Report in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2014 and prior have been presented on a pro forma basis as if the internal corporate restructure and demerger had occurred at the beginning of period presented. Financial information presented on a pro forma basis has been identified as such. 2 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 TO ORORA’S SHAREHOLDERS CHRIS ROBERTS Chairman NIGEL GARRARD Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer The financial year ended 30 June 2016 has been another successful period for Orora. The Company’s disciplined approach to executing against a proven, value-creating strategy, has positioned it well. Since listing, Orora has announced approximately $225.0 million of customer-focused capital and innovation investments to underpin future shareholder growth. Orora is pleased to present its 2016 Annual Report to shareholders. It has been a successful period for the Company, further developing and embedding its customer-led culture of outperformance, delivering on its business objectives and generating both strong earnings growth and increased financial returns. Over the period, Orora grew sales revenue by 13.0% to $3.8 billion despite subdued market conditions in both its core markets: Australasia and North America. The Company grew organic volumes in both regions, delivered benefits from Group-wide business improvement and cost reduction programs and saw initial contributions from acquisitions made in North America during the period. This culminated in underlying earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of $272.1 million, up 20.9% on the previous year, and underlying net profit after tax (NPAT) of $162.7 million, up 23.8% (both measures exclude the profit on sale of surplus land in Petrie, Queensland – please see the Operational Review section of this report for details on the land sale). Through sustained financial discipline and ongoing sound balance sheet management, Orora converted the increased earnings into cash flow, which improved 20.3% to $313.8 million (excluding Petrie land sale proceeds). This further strengthened Orora’s balance sheet and enabled a reduction in leverage to 1.7 times, down from 1.9 times in the prior year. This deleveraging has provided a solid balance sheet platform for Orora to pursue future growth opportunities to drive further shareholder value. Net debt during the period increased to $629.6 million, compared to $606.9 million at 30 June 2015. Orora has announced a final dividend of 5.0 cents per share partially franked to 30%. Combined with the interim dividend of 4.5 cents per share, the total dividends declared for the year were 9.5 cents per share, which is an increase of 26.7% over the prior year. This represents a dividend payout ratio of approximately 67% of NPAT, which is again at the top end of Orora’s indicated payout range and reflects the Board’s continued confidence in the business. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 3 TO ORORA’S SHAREHOLDERS Operational review A detailed review of operational performance for the financial year ended 30 June 2016 can be found in the Operational Review section of this report. Overall, the business performed well during the year, considering that economic conditions across Orora’s key markets remained generally subdued. Orora Australasia delivered a 10.4% increase in EBIT to $200.4 million, with underlying sales increasing 2.5%. Increased earnings in the Beverage business were driven by higher Glass volumes, improved operating efficiency across the business and the reversal of the adverse financial impact from the FY15 glass furnace rebuild. This was partially offset by the impact of rising gas, electricity and soda ash input costs within the Glass division. With the Glass business seeing increased demand in customer wine volumes led by the impact of the lower Australian dollar, it was announced in February 2016 that $42.0 million would be invested to increase the manufacturing capacity of Orora’s forming lines by 60 million bottles. This additional volume is to replace product currently imported and underpinned by existing customer demand. The project will be completed progressively during FY17. The Fibre Packaging business delivered increased sales driven by organic growth, improved Australasian agriculture volumes and higher sales to the grocery sector in Australia. Orora’s “Go Direct” transition in the Queensland fruit and produce sector is progressing well, with new depots already established in Bundaberg and Mareeba, and a further site expected to open in Innisfail in late 2016. Incremental cost reduction and innovation benefits of $13.7 million were delivered at the B9 Recycled Paper Mill, taking total cumulative benefits to $35.1 million. The mill increased production by 15,000 tonnes to 382,000 tonnes and successfully exited FY16 at a run rate equal to design production capacity of 400,000 tonnes. Export of recycled paper to the Orora business and external customers in North America increased from 55,300 tonnes to 79,500 tonnes during the year. The new $20.0 million state-of-the-art dairy sack line at the existing Thomastown, Victoria facility, underpinned by a supply agreement with Fonterra, is currently being commissioned and will become fully operational in the second quarter of FY17. ORORA LIMITED 2015—2016 AWARDS Orora North America, which is now comprised of Orora Packaging Solutions (Landsberg Packaging Solutions and Manufacturing) and the recently acquired IntegraColor, delivered a 20.2% increase in local currency EBIT to USD72.0 million on the back of a 6.0% increase in organic sales revenue, margin improvement initiatives and benefits from recent acquisitions. Landsberg Packaging Solutions continued to execute on its market growth strategy through leveraging its product breadth, uniform service offering and national footprint to increase sales to existing customers and win market share, largely from independent players. The Manufacturing division delivered increased earnings through higher volumes and improved efficiencies and cost control, despite continued margin pressure. In September 2015, Landsberg acquired Jakait, a specialised supplier of packaging, logistics services and label products to the greenhouse produce sector based in Ontario, Canada. The integration of Jakait is on plan, as is the successful integration of the 2014 acquisition of Worldwide Plastics, which met Orora’s targeted returns in FY16, a full year ahead of schedule. In March 2016, Orora acquired IntegraColor, a Texas based provider of Point of Purchase (POP) retail display solutions. IntegraColor aligns with Orora’s total packaging solutions customer proposition and moves Orora North America further up the value curve, closer to the brand owner and provides a platform for future bolt-on acquisitions in the POP sector. The integration is on plan and the business is performing in line with expectations. The Orora Way driving outperformance Organisational culture plays a critical role in driving operational and financial success. From the beginning, the Orora Board and leadership team recognised that the passion and goodwill of its 6,200 team members offered a compelling source of competitive advantage. Orora’s team members have played a unique role in shaping the Company’s culture and developing the proprietary The Orora Way, which includes a belief statement, company values and outperformance deliverables that will continue to drive success. During the year, the Company continued to build on The Orora Way, uniting Orora team members across Australasia and North America with a shared vision for the future and linking their day-to-day efforts to the Company’s three strategic areas of focus – innovating to lead in Orora’s chosen markets, enhancing core operations, and investing to grow the business. The Company also announced the inaugural winners of the Orora Heroes Awards, a global recognition program that celebrates team members who role model a commitment to outperformance in the areas of safety, financial discipline, customer focus and Orora’s people. 2015 BRW Most Innovative Companies — Best Process Innovation Frucor Supplier of the Year Award (2015) Point of Purchase Advertising International (POPAI), the Global Association for Marketing at Retail Temporary display category 2 Gold, 1 Silver, 1 Bronze 4 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 FY16 has been a successful period, further developing and embedding the Company’s customer-led culture of outperformance, delivering on its business objectives and generating both strong earnings growth and increased financial returns. Innovating to lead Innovation is one of Orora’s three strategic focus areas and passion is one of the Company’s core values. Since announcing the establishment of the $45.0 million Orora Global Innovation Initiative in July 2015, approximately $20.0 million in funding has been committed to innovative customer-led product solutions, process improvement and productivity. Some specific examples include, a digital printer which is to be installed in the Australian Fibre Packaging division in late 2016 to step change Orora’s product offering and customer value proposition; and the new Glass bottle sleeving line that was successfully commissioned in Gawler, South Australia, during July 2016. These demonstrate Orora’s willingness to invest and jointly support Orora’s and Orora’s customers’ future growth. To further drive and cultivate innovative thinking, an internal crowd sourcing initiative was launched in July 2016 that provides all team members with a platform to contribute and develop ideas in relation to the Orora Global Innovation Initiative. The program has received a very high level of participation company-wide. Shareholders can also experience Orora’s passion for innovation by downloading the new Orora app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. This is a leading example of how innovation can improve the way Orora connects with its shareholders, customers and communities, as well as its 6,200 team members, to help them keep up to date with company announcements, achievements and celebrations. Outlook Orora looks forward to a period of accelerated innovation, ongoing enhancements to Orora’s core business operations and further strategic investments to continue to drive growth for shareholders. The Board would like to thank all of Orora’s stakeholders, including customers, shareholders, team members and suppliers, for their support this year.

To achieve this vision, Orora aligns its business activities and its team members to three key strategic priorities – innovate to lead, enhance the core and invest to grow. Every Orora business initiative directly aligns to these key strategic priorities, and, importantly, every Orora team member is motivated by the direct link between their day-to-day efforts and helping to achieve the Company’s vision. Successfully executing initiatives aligned to these three priorities demands a continued focus on delivering outperformance through customer focus, safety, financial discipline and our people. We will continue to build on this momentum in the year ahead. With a proud heritage dating back more than 150 years, Orora will soon celebrate its third anniversary as an independent, listed public company. We believe that the investments we continue to make in defining and embedding Orora’s culture drive high performance and competitive advantage, and are generating shareholder value. Since listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) in December 2013, our people have developed and embraced a company culture that unites our businesses and drives outperformance. The talent and passion of Orora’s team members is critical to our continued success. In early 2014, more than 300 of our team members from across Orora worked together to develop The Orora Way, comprising: • a shared belief in what Orora does • values against which we hold ourselves to account • a disciplined operating framework that demands outperformance. Orora rewards and celebrates team members who go above and beyond to deliver exceptional outcomes. In December 2015, Orora announced the inaugural winners of the Group-wide reward and recognition program, Orora Heroes, which is directly aligned to our four categories of outperformance – safety, customer focus, our people, and financial discipline. (See Celebrating Orora Heroes case study.) CASE STUDY Celebrating Orora Heroes In 2015, Damien Kelly, a team member from an Orora Fibre Packaging manufacturing site in Queensland, Australia, received the inaugural Orora Heroes Award for Safety. Damien’s passion for the safety of his fellow team members motivated him to invest more than 12 months of his own time to customise an app that simplified and improved safety reporting. The app is now being adopted across the Australasian Fibre Packaging business and is being tested for broader application across the Orora Group. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 7 OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY Successful execution against a proven strategy has positioned Orora well. The Company now looks forward to a period of accelerated innovation, continued enhancements to our core business operations, and strategic investments to drive future growth for our shareholders. Consistent delivery of the promise Future strategic focus Since its listing in December 2013, Orora has maintained a disciplined focus on delivering in accordance with our stated strategy. With a well-credentialed Board and an experienced management team, the Company has delivered on its strategy to focus the portfolio, ensure its businesses are well invested, deliver a significant program of self-help earnings improvements and generate strong cash flows, which are being used to fund both organic growth and inorganic investment to generate future returns. This strategy included multiple divestment and footprint rationalisation programs, which have been successfully executed and delivery of these programs has resulted in a healthy balance sheet. This has enabled disciplined returns-focused investments in organic growth and acquisitions of approximately $225.0 million since listing on the ASX. Orora will continue to target end-market segments with appealing growth and return characteristics to refine and focus our portfolio. Orora’s vision is to be the industry-leading packaging solutions company delivering on our promise every day. We will achieve this by relentlessly aligning our business activities and our people to our disciplined operating framework, The Orora Way (see previous pages). Underpinned by The Orora Way, our shareholder value creation blueprint further articulates the value-creating activities that will contribute to our success and provides a framework against which we hold ourselves accountable to our shareholders. Orora is well positioned for a period of accelerated innovation, continued enhancements to our core business operations and strategic investments to drive future growth for our shareholders.

Fibre Packaging Sales in Australia were higher driven by improved volumes across the agriculture and grocery sectors. The “Go Direct” channel transition in the fruit and produce sector is progressing well with new business partially offsetting lost revenues from the distribution agreement terminated in May 2015. The business has continued to expand its “Go Direct” channel to market. New depots in Queensland were opened in Bundaberg and Mareeba in July 2016 and a new site in Innisfail is expected to open in late calendar 2016. This expanded distribution network complements the strategic partnership formed with Australia’s largest refrigerated transport company, AHG Refrigerated Logistics. Orora’s augmented end-to-end value proposition, encompassing corrugated cartons and refrigerated logistics, is being well received by fruit and produce customers in the region. Sales in New Zealand were higher than the prior period, driven by increased volumes in the agriculture sector led by a strong kiwi fruit and apple growing season. Ongoing cost improvement and sales margin initiatives contributed to improved overall margins across the division. Designed to improve product quality and output, the business committed approximately $20.0 million during the year to a continued asset upgrade program focusing on modernising printing and converting equipment across Orora’s Australian and New Zealand corrugating sites. In line with its small and medium sized enterprise (SME) customer strategy focusing on short run, customised corrugated packaging, the Fibre Packaging business rebranded its network of smaller footprint box converters to “Orora Specialty Packaging”. Underpinned by the success of this SME initiative, an expanded Orora Specialty Packaging site in Oakleigh, Victoria, was opened in July 2016. Packaging and Distribution Improved sales in the quick service restaurant sector were offset by general softness in the grocery and industrial segments. Sales in the dairy segment were broadly stable with the prior year. OPERATIONAL REVIEW ORORA AUSTRALASIA Orora ChillFresh® is a unique alternative solution to expanded polystyrene products for the packaging and transportation of products requiring low temperature conditions. CASE STUDY World-class dairy bag facility in Thomastown, Victoria Investment in a new world-class dairy bag production line and site upgrade for Orora’s facility in Thomastown, Victoria was announced in December 2015. The transformation of the site incorporates new digital pasting of bags and the latest tube sealing technology, upgraded high hygiene facilities across the total manufacturing site, the inclusion of automated guided vehicles and a new warehouse. The new dairy bag machine is the first of its kind in Australia and commenced commissioning in mid-2016, with the full project on track for completion by the end of 2016. The new production line is one of the leading dairy bag manufacturing facilities in the world, with the latest bag-making technology combined with the highest food safety standards. 16 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWInnovation, growth and sustainability Construction of the new $20.0 million state of the art dairy sack line at the existing Thomastown, Victoria, facility is largely completed with the project tracking on time and cost. The new line is currently being commissioned and is expected to be fully operational in the second quarter of FY17. The Australasian business has continued to actively utilise the Orora Global Innovation Initiative. Approximately $13.0 million of projects have been approved to enhance innovation, modernisation and productivity. As part of this program, to augment Orora’s product offering, a new Glass bottle sleeving line was installed in Gawler (South Australia) and was successfully commissioned in July 2016. To enhance its customer value proposition through offering superior print and visual display quality, the Fibre Packaging division has committed to an investment in a new state of the art digital printer. This new asset will position Orora at the forefront of digital technology as it applies to the fibre packaging sector. The digital printer is to be located at Scoresby, Victoria, and is expected to be operational in late calendar 2016. Orora established further relationships with specialist third party vendors during the period to augment its offering of innovative packaging concepts to customers. • Through the Fibre Packaging business in Australia, Orora has introduced an innovative cold-chain monitoring system called Xsense® to Australia. The system proactively monitors, analyses and disseminates temperature and relative humidity data – optimising the quality of perishable products throughout the cold chain. This technology complements Orora’s solution portfolio for fresh produce, meat and other cold chain products. • Orora has entered an exclusive relationship with YBP Group Limited to provide customers with an anti-counterfeiting and consumer engagement technology platform with initial applications expected in the wine industry. Orora has committed to the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative, the UN Global Compact (UNGC), which is both a framework for action and a platform for demonstrating corporate commitment and leadership. The UNGC establishes ten principles across issues such as Bribery & Corruption, Human Rights, Labour Standards and Environmental Performance. Orora was awarded the Energy Efficiency & Conservation Council Energy Efficiency Award for large businesses in New Zealand. The Company also received a Highly Commended for specific energy efficiency initiatives at its Wiri Beverage Cans plant, New Zealand. Botany Recycled Paper Mill (B9) B9 produced 382,000 tonnes of recycled paper during FY16 (367,000 tonnes in the prior period) and in line with expectations, successfully exited FY16 at a run rate equal to the design production capacity of 400,000 tonnes. Manufacturing consistency continued to stabilise in the second half of the year following the extended five day maintenance shut in September 2015, which affected first half volumes. During FY16, B9 exported 79,500 tonnes of recycled paper to Orora North America and US-based customers (55,300 in FY15). From January 2016, B9 commenced paying higher gas prices due to the expiry of the previous long-term supply agreement. The adverse EBIT impact in the second half of FY16 was approximately $2.0 million. Beverage Business Group Beverage volumes were higher than the prior period. Earnings were higher, with improved operating cost control across the Business Group and the reversal of the adverse financial impact from the FY15 glass furnace rebuild. These factors were partially offset by the impact of higher input costs in the Glass business. Beverage Cans Volumes were in line with the prior period with improved operating cost control and manufacturing efficiencies driving higher earnings. A long-term customer agreement which expired in June 2016, was renewed and extended for a further five years to June 2021. Glass Volumes were ahead of the prior year aided by an increase in market share in beer and improving wine volumes through the period. Operating efficiency improved and the majority of the adverse financial impact from the FY15 glass furnace rebuild reversed, although these upsides were largely offset by higher input costs of approximately $6.0 million (energy and soda ash) and increased depreciation resulting from the furnace rebuild. With the Glass furnaces in an oversold position and Orora importing bottles to meet demand, in February 2016, it was announced that $42.0 million would be invested to expand the combined forming capacity of two of the three furnaces by 60 million bottles. During the year, the business successfully extended two major wine customer contracts for multi-year terms. CASE STUDY A state-of-the-art glass bottle facility at Gawler, South Australia In February 2016, Orora announced a $42.0 million investment in its Gawler facility in South Australia, to expand the combined forming capacity of two of the three furnaces by 60 million bottles, to meet increased customer demand. To supplement its glass product offering, Orora also introduced a new glass sleeving decoration line in July 2016. This innovation meets a growing customer need to attractively package and label their products, providing stand-out on shelf and customisation of packaging for promotions. Once complete in early 2017, Orora’s Gawler facility will be a market leader in producing glass bottles for the Australian beverage market.

Overall, North America’s reported earnings grew 38.1% to $98.9 million. In local currency terms, sales grew 11.9% to USD1,378.8 million and earnings were up 20.2% to USD72.0 million. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, organic sales growth was approximately 6.0%. North America’s EBIT margin improved to 5.2% (versus 4.9% in the prior year) reflecting improved efficiency and cost control in Orora Packaging Solutions with a minor positive impact from IntegraColor (acquired 1 March 2016). Cash flow increased 33.0% to $90.2 million, representing a cash conversion of 76% and RoAFE improved 210 bps to 24.7% through higher earnings and improving balance sheet management.

Roll out of the new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system commenced in January 2016. It remains on track with the revised implementation schedule and eleven sites have now successfully converted. Implementation at the remaining sites will be progressive over the next 12 to 18 months. There is no change to the revised capital cost estimate of USD25.0 million. The total cumulative spend to date is approximately USD18.0 million. IntegraColor On 1 March 2016, Orora announced the acquisition of IntegraColor, a Texas-based provider of Point of Purchase (POP) retail display solutions and visual communication services, for USD77.0 million. With sales of approximately USD100.0 million, IntegraColor provides Orora with a new earnings stream in North America. The acquisition aligns with Orora’s total packaging solutions customer proposition and moves the North American business further up the value chain and closer to the brand owner. The vendor has continued with Orora post acquisition and, in addition to overseeing the IntegraColor business, will focus on executing Orora North America’s organic and inorganic growth strategy for POP. The experienced local management team will continue to run the day-to-day operations of IntegraColor. Integration is tracking well, with good customer and employee engagement and sound progress being made across all integration components. Financially, IntegraColor is performing in line with expectations. The contribution to FY16 has been adversely impacted by acquisition transaction costs of approximately $1.4 million (USD1.0 million), which were expensed during the period. OPERATIONAL REVIEW ORORA NORTH AMERICA Orora Packaging Solutions Orora Packaging Solutions delivered strong sales growth and higher earnings despite continued muted economic and market conditions. Orora Packaging Solutions’ EBIT margin improved to 5.1% (versus 4.9% in the prior period) driven by an ongoing focus on enhancing the value add service offering and improving efficiency, cost control and procurement. Despite flat market conditions, Landsberg increased revenue by continuing to successfully execute on its market growth strategy. Through its product breadth, uniform service offering and leveraging its national footprint, the business generated higher sales to existing customers and won market share largely from independent players. The business benefited from a continued focus on securing larger corporate accounts within the targeted markets of food, IT, auto and pharmaceutical/health and by sustained commission-only sales growth. To further enhance the ongoing evolution to a “Total Packaging Solutions Supplier”, Landsberg acquired a small Californian based supplier of flexible packaging. The acquisition provides sourcing lines for flexible packaging from Asia and assisted Landsberg to win new business during the period, through augmenting its customer value proposition. The successful integration of the July 2014 acquisition of Worldwide Plastics has delivered a 20% RoAFE in FY16 – a full year ahead of return criteria. Meanwhile, integration of the 1 September 2015 acquisition of Jakait, a specialised supplier of packaging, logistics services and label products to the greenhouse produce sector based in Ontario (Canada), is on track. Underpinned by support from existing corporate accounts, two new distribution sites were opened in Orlando, Florida, and Charlotte, North Carolina, during the second half of FY16, further bolstering Landsberg’s geographic footprint. The Manufacturing division increased earnings through higher volumes, improved manufacturing efficiency and solid operating cost control, despite continued margin pressure from surplus new industry capacity entering the market. CASE STUDY IntegraColor, the latest addition to Orora In March 2016, Orora announced the acquisition of IntegraColor, a US provider of point of purchase (POP) retail display solutions and other visual communications services for corporate customers across the consumer (food and beverage), healthcare/education and horticulture industries. IntegraColor offers customers a broad range of value-added services, from brand concepts through to design, production, data management, fulfilment and logistics, complementing Orora’s total packaging solutions capability. The company is based in Texas and services over 3,200 customers across North America. 20 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWGrowth agenda Whilst the bias remains slightly positive, the business is yet to witness any tangible improvement in economic conditions within North America. The focus of Landsberg remains on securing large corporate accounts and increasing sales with existing customers. This growth will be driven organically through leveraging the national footprint, extensive product breadth, uniform service offering and a customised packaging solution value proposition. Orora Packaging Solutions will continue to seek to capitalise on the benefits of an integrated fibre operation through selling the enhanced performance characteristics of B9 paper. Thus far, approximately USD5.0 million of Orora North America projects have been approved under the Orora Global Innovation Initiative. This includes an investment in a business-to-consumer offering to which Landsberg is already supplying packaging and fulfilment services. The innovative online business provides chilled fresh food to the customer’s home. A pipeline of acquisition targets within the preferred market segments continues to be developed in the Packaging Solutions sector. These acquisitions either extend the geographic footprint and/or enhance the business’s customised product capability. The completion of the roll out of the new ERP system is a key enabler to this acquisition growth opportunity. Attracted by heavily customised product/service dynamics of POP, a pipeline of national acquisition targets to be bolted onto IntegraColor is also now being developed. These opportunities are likely to be primarily focused on extending the geographic footprint as well as augmenting the product and service capability. Orora’s custom-made low-cost virtual reality viewer transforms a smartphone into an immersive media headset. CASE STUDY Two new distribution sites for Landsberg Packaging Solutions in 2016 The packaging market in south-eastern USA is rapidly growing, as manufacturing companies continue to relocate there in order to capture the benefits of a more favourable business environment. Aligned with Orora’s growth strategy in this region, two new locations have been added. In Charlotte, North Carolina, a 60,000 square foot (5,600 square metre) facility has been added with the capability of servicing customers within a 450-kilometre radius. The location is anchored with two long-term large corporate accounts and will provide Orora with a growth platform to extend our business in North and South Carolina. In Orlando, Florida a 50,000 square foot (4,650 square metre) facility has been added, which is ideally located to support the growing fresh produce industry for the retail market. The facility, initially supported by a large food processing customer, has already allowed Orora to attract and support a number of additional new customers.

The Australasian segment increased underlying sales by 2.5% with the Fibre Packaging division delivering higher volumes across key segments, including benefits from very strong kiwi fruit and apple crops in New Zealand, and the net of the transition impact of the “Go Direct” model in fruit and produce. The Glass business delivered higher volumes aided by increased market share in beer and improving wine volumes through the period. These revenue gains were partially offset by lower export sales of surplus Old Corrugated Cardboard (OCC) from ongoing OCC collection footprint rationalisation and the pass through of lower aluminium prices within Beverage Cans. North America grew local currency revenue by 11.9% through securing increased sales to existing customers, winning market share and benefits from the acquisitions of IntegraColor (effective 1 March 2016) and Jakait (effective 1 September 2015). Excluding the impact of acquisitions, underlying organic local currency North American sales growth was approximately 6.0%. The foreign exchange benefit on US dollar denominated North America sales was $218.9 million. Earnings before interest and tax During the period, EBIT increased by 24.6% to $280.5 million. Excluding Petrie, underlying EBIT increased by 20.9% to $272.1 million. The Australasian segment increased earnings with the Fibre Packaging division growing volumes and, together with B9, delivered incremental cost reduction and innovation benefits. The Beverage division improved operating efficiency, grew Glass volumes and benefited from the reversal of the majority of the adverse financial impact from FY15 glass furnace rebuild. The North American business delivered increased earnings from higher sales and procurement and cost efficiency benefits. The business also benefited from acquisitions completed during the period and the foreign exchange translation benefit from US dollar denominated earnings of $10.7 million. The business was not without headwinds and the increase in earnings were partially offset by higher input costs within the Glass division (gas, electricity and soda ash) and B9 (gas); higher depreciation within the Glass division following the furnace rebuild in the second half of FY15; the timing impact from the transition to the “Go Direct” channel in the fruit and produce sector in Fibre Australia; and tighter margins in the North American Manufacturing business. Orora delivered $13.7 million of incremental cost reduction and innovation benefits from the B9 Recycled Paper Mill in FY16 (compared with FY15), taking the cumulative total to $35.1 million. The incremental B9 benefits reflect $11.2 million from cost reduction and $2.5 million from innovation/sales synergy benefits. Balance sheet The increase in other current assets is mainly a result of a rise in capital receivables relating to the sale of land at Petrie, Queensland; higher receivables within the Fibre Packaging division owing to the New Zealand kiwi fruit and apple season; finished good stock build in Glass ahead of output curtailments in relation to the FY17 capacity expansion; foreign exchange translation effect on North American receivables and inventories and the impact of the North American acquisitions of IntegraColor and Jakait. This was offset by lower inventory in most Australasian divisions. Net property, plant and equipment (PP&E) was higher with the foreign exchange translation impact on Orora North America PP&E and additions relating to the recent acquisitions offsetting the sale of surplus land at Petrie, Queensland, and Botany, New South Wales. Capital expenditure (CapEx) for FY16 included spend on the following major items: plant and equipment for the new dairy sack line at Thomastown, Victoria, initial payments in relation to the Glass capacity expansion, corrugated converting equipment upgrades, beverage can manufacturing equipment improvements, construction of the new Auckland, New Zealand, Cartons site and payments for projects approved under the Orora Global Innovation Initiative. Depreciation and amortisation for the period was $107.5 million. The increase in intangible assets reflects movement within the North American business associated with the foreign exchange translation effect on intangible assets, goodwill relating to acquisitions and costs associated with the new ERP system. Net debt increased by $22.7 million during the period with investments in capital, acquisitions in North America and dividends offsetting increased operating cash flows and proceeds from the sale of surplus land. The adverse foreign exchange translation impact on USD denominated net debt was $2.1 million. On a constant currency basis, net debt would have been $20.6 million higher than June 2015. The increase in payables is mainly the result of an ongoing improvement in trading terms with vendors, impact of the North American acquisitions and the foreign exchange translation effect of North American payables. There was also an increase in provisions attributable to the decommissioning costs following the sale of land at Petrie. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 23 FINANCIAL REVIEW SUMMARY Cash flow Working capital Earnings growth was successfully converted into cash with operating cash flow increasing by $53.0 million to $313.8 million. This excludes the initial proceeds on the sale of Petrie land. During the period, average total working capital to sales decreased to 9.6% (versus 10.3% in FY15) due to generally improved working capital management across the Group. Cash conversion was 76%, in line with the prior period and ahead of Management’s indicated cash conversion target of 70%. Main cash flow movements included: • Increase in Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) of $64.8 million; • Working capital was well managed across the Group. The increase in working capital was mainly attributable to the following timing related issues, which are all expected to reverse during FY17: – Inventory build at Glass ahead of the forthcoming capacity expansion; – Delay in transitioning to an import sourcing model for aluminium; and – Later fruit and produce season in New Zealand pushing up receivables in the Fibre Packaging business; • Gross CapEx totalled $87.8 million which includes innovation projects; At the start of FY16, inventory levels at Glass were lower than the normal level following the furnace rebuild late in FY15 and have progressively increased during the year, including building inventories to cover downtime associated with the upcoming capacity expansion. Working capital management remains an on-going focus across the Group and the management target for average total working capital to sales is less than 10.0% in the medium term. Corporate Corporate costs were $18.8 million and include an $8.4 million gain from the sale of surplus land in Petrie. Underlying Corporate costs of $27.2 million were slightly lower than the prior period ($28.1 million). Included in Corporate are reorganisation costs associated with both the new dairy sack line and New Zealand Cartons business partially offset by the profit on sale of surplus land at Botany. • Net CapEx of $77.2 million includes the proceeds from the sale of surplus land at Botany ($10.6 million) but excludes the initial proceeds from the sale of Petrie land ($20.0 million) for reporting consistency; The Petrie site was sold for $50.5 million. Consideration of $20.0 million was received during FY16. The balance of the proceeds will be received as decommissioning of the site progresses over the next two years. • Cash significant items in FY16 relate to spend on onerous recycling contracts and minor plant closures. 24 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWOUR APPROACH TO SUSTAINABILITY Orora’s values of teamwork, passion, respect and integrity underpin our broad approach to sustainability. We aim to do what is right, keep each other safe, and operate in a way that demonstrates respect for each other, the community and our customers. SUSTAINABILITY AT ORORA Orora’s values-led sustainability framework Orora’s values-led sustainability framework addresses the impact of our operations on three key areas: PEOPLE PLANET We work to keep each other safe and to operate in a way that demonstrates respect for each other, the community and our customers. We actively seek opportunities to reduce the environmental impact of our operations and products. PROSPERITY We find innovative ways to create sustainable value and mitigate risk. Orora is dedicated to creating robust, responsible and respected operations that deliver value for our customers and operational value for our Company. In 2016, we continued to support our customers’ need for innovative, quality and sustainable packaging solutions. Our operations focused on the safety and development of our people, increased engagement with local communities on relevant issues and continuing to improve our environmental performance by delivering on our previously announced 2019 Eco Targets. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 25 OUR APPROACH TO SUSTAINABILITY United Nations Global Compact Ethical sourcing Ethical sourcing is a risk that spans both the people and planet pillars of Orora’s sustainability framework, and has both operational and customer value implications. Orora’s ethical sourcing risk can be described as the reputational and supply chain risk arising from increased sourcing of materials from developing countries that may not necessarily have the same standards for governance, human rights, environmental protection and quality as more established markets. Orora’s current priority is the responsible sourcing of fibre for our fibre and sack product range. Orora recognises the significant and detrimental impact of illegal logging on the global economy, society and the environment. Under Orora Australasia’s Sustainable Fibre Sourcing Policy, all wood, pulp and reclaimed fibres used in the manufacture of our paper and cartonboard products must be sourced from socially and environmentally responsible and controlled sources as defined by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) 3. Orora’s Sustainable Fibre Sourcing Due Diligence Framework also supports our compliance with the Illegal Logging Prohibition Act and Amendment Regulations 4. Extract from Orora Australasia’s Sustainable Fibre Sourcing Policy Orora Australasia is not and will not be directly or indirectly involved in the following activities: • illegal logging or the trade in illegal wood or forest products • violation of traditional and human rights in forestry operations • destruction of high conservation values in forestry operations • significant conversion of forests to plantations or non-forest use • introduction of genetically modified organisms in forestry operations. Moving forward, Orora will broaden its ethical sourcing focus to consider other priority inputs and general enhancements across our supplier base. In April 2016, Orora’s Managing Director & CEO, Nigel Garrard, was pleased to commit Orora to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), a voluntary initiative to address global human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption issues. The UNGC goals complement the Orora values, and particularly our focus on ethical sourcing. We are committed to making the UNGC principles part of Orora’s strategy and day-to-day operations. We will submit an annual Communication on Progress report to the UNGC and engage in collaborative projects which advance the broader development goals of the United Nations, particularly the Sustainable Development Goals. Addressing sustainability risk In 2015, Orora engaged external advisors to undertake an extensive assessment of its external risk profile. This year, Orora undertook an internal review of the findings of this assessment and has again determined that it does not have a material exposure to environmental or social sustainability risk at this time. This reflects positively on our people and processes, and it is not a statement we take lightly. Orora has undertaken a detailed assessment of its exposure to material economic, environmental and social sustainability risks in accordance with Recommendation 7.4 of the 3rd Edition of the ASX’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 1. Orora’s approach to sustainability risk profiling in 2015 was positively recognised in the ASX/KPMG Corporate Governance Council report Adoption of the 3rd Edition Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 2 by ASX listed entities. Building on our history of good operating practice, in the year ended 30 June 2016, Orora developed response plans to address our most significant potential impacts. While no material exposure to environmental or social sustainability risk exists at this time, Orora continues to actively monitor and address the other areas of potential impact detailed in the 2015 assessment, including ethical sourcing, safety, energy pricing and supply, innovation, waste and recycling, climate and resource depletion risks. Orora intends to carry out the sustainability materiality assessment process on a periodic basis as part of the normal risk assessment cycle and respond to new risks that emerge as required. For information on Orora’s assessment of material risks, including economic risks, refer to the Principal Risks section of this report. CASE STUDY Freedom of Association UNGC Principle 3: Businesses should uphold the freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining. The majority of Orora’s production team members across the Company’s Australian and New Zealand production sites are believed to be members of a trade union. Additionally, and irrespective of whether the team members are members of a trade union, Orora bargains collectively with our production site team members to agree terms and conditions of employment. In recent years, Orora has forged a new, highly effective and collaborative model of business change with our team members and their union representatives at a number of our Australian Fibre Packaging sites. This approach has been a significant contributing factor to improved business performance and the model has been recognised by academics and government authorities as particularly progressive. See https://www.fwc.gov.au/documents/documents/ engagement/case-studies/Orora-Case-Study-2015.pdf 26 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWSafety In line with our values-led sustainability approach, we treat our fellow team members with respect, and work to keep our people safe. Orora’s five-year occupational health and safety strategy is guided by the following main objectives: • Leadership – build on the existing commitment of leaders throughout the business to deliver an enhanced safety culture • Safety management system – continue the evolution of our existing system to effectively manage safety risk • Plant and equipment design – review and ensure all equipment and plant is suitably designed and safeguarded to enable safe operation • Capability – continue to develop our team members so that they are fully equipped to effectively manage safety within their areas of responsibility. To implement this strategy, we have safety action plans in place across all of our businesses and have made good progress against these over the course of the year. Orora continues to focus on the mitigation of potential Serious Injury or Fatality (SIF) risks, ensuring that resources are dedicated to preventing safety incidents that pose the greatest potential impact to our team members. To complement this, senior leadership has continued to demonstrate its commitment to proactively manage safety, and work collaboratively with all team members to find the most effective engagement strategies. This is captured and managed through Orora’s successful safety leadership tour program, which now also targets the critical initiatives for SIF-level risk mitigation. Safety leadership is a critical element of any successful safety culture. This year, we launched the Orora Safety Leadership Program to better equip leaders to more effectively manage safety in their areas of responsibility. The program examines a range of strategic research and industry proven techniques to instil discipline, commitment and an appreciation of the personal value of safety leadership to our team members. The facilitation of this course will continue to be a focus for us in the financial year ending 30 June 2017. During the financial year ended 30 June 2016, Orora also initiated the global roll out of a newly developed risk profiling methodology targeting SIF exposure risk. This process maps site-specific risk exposures at a facilitated workshop at each Orora manufacturing site, attended by a broad range of manufacturing team members and health, safety and environment (HSE) experts from across Orora’s businesses. The results then form the basis of that site’s safety improvement plan, as well as generating leading risk management metrics that we will use in the new financial year to gauge the effectiveness of our management efforts. Work also continued on the enhancement of Orora’s HSE management system during the year. This has further focused efforts in an objective risk-based fashion to augment Orora’s assurance system in line with risk management principles. Compliance with the management system will continue to be monitored through both internal and external audits. Our safety performance is measured using two key metrics – Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) and Recordable Case Frequency Rate (RCFR). LTIFR is measured by calculating the number of injuries resulting in at least one full workday lost per million hours worked. In the financial year ended 30 June 2016, the LTIFR was 1.5, which corresponds to 21 cases across our business. This compares with our previous year’s performance of 1.9 (26 cases). RCFR is measured by calculating the number of medical treatment cases and lost time injuries per million hours worked. This year, the RCFR was 5.9, which corresponds to 81 cases across our business. This compares with our previous year’s performance of 5.9 (80 cases). Orora Group Safety Performance 8.5 6.6 5.9 5.9 1.9 1.8 1.9 1.5 5.9 1.1 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 RCFR LTIFR Orora’s commitment to keeping its team members safe is ongoing. In the year ahead, we will continue to implement existing and new initiatives that align with the objectives of our five-year safety strategy.

ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 27 OUR APPROACH TO SUSTAINABILITY ECO TARGETS Orora actively seeks opportunities to reduce the environmental impact of our operations and products on the planet, and continues to make significant progress towards achieving our 2019 Eco Targets.* Process efficiency gains at Orora’s B9 Recycled Paper Mill at Botany, New South Wales, upgrades at our glass manufacturing plant in Gawler, South Australia, and efficiency projects at smaller manufacturing sites led to a significant reduction in CO2 emissions during the reporting period. We also reduced the amount of waste sent to landfill, driven largely by improved processes at the B9 recycled paper mill. In the coming year, Orora will increase its focus on improving its water usage at key manufacturing plants. The Company will continue to report progress towards these targets each year. ECO TARGETS CO2 EMISSIONS CO2 ↓ 10% by 30 June 2019 PROGRESS† Orora Group CO2 Emissions Intensity (tonnes CO2/AUD million Net Revenue] 297 229 198 181 FY13 FY14 FY15^ FY16 Target FY19 WASTE TO LANDFILL Orora Group Waste To Landfill Intensity (tonnes/AUD million Net Revenue] ↓ 25% by 30 June 2019 14 13 12 6 WATER USE ↓ 10% by 30 June 2019 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 Target FY19 Orora Group Water Use Intensity (kilolitres/AUD million Net Revenue] 1,670 841 902 866 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 Target FY19 * Resource efficiency reductions from a baseline of calendar year 2013. ^ G1 rebuild during FY15 resulted in reduced energy usage during the period. † New acquisitions during FY16 have been excluded due to unavailability of data. Data will be included within 24 months of acquisition. 28 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWOrora New Zealand Energy Efficiency Program Following the implementation of several successful energy efficiency initiatives in Australia, Orora has commenced implementing similar initiatives in New Zealand as part of our strategic partnership with the New Zealand Government’s Energy Efficiency Conservation Authority. At the sites where these initiatives have been completed, we have delivered a 26% saving in electricity and a 16% saving in gas and fuel oil usage. Orora’s program was recognised at the New Zealand Energy Efficiency Awards as Winner (Large Business category) and Highly Commended (Overall Program). Carbon Disclosure Project Orora voluntarily discloses information on climate change, water and forest risk through the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The CDP provides information to investors, companies and governments regarding carbon-related issues and the preparedness of organisations to manage carbon impacts. CDP feedback on Orora’s first submission (2015) was positive. Orora performs well above the CDP supply chain average on the quality and completeness of our disclosures, particularly on risk and opportunity management. Fostering gender diversity As a values-led organisation, Orora strives to ensure an inclusive and respectful environment for all team members. All decisions on hiring, salary, benefits, advancement, termination or retirement are based solely on each team member’s ability to do the job, regardless of cultural background, disability, gender, family responsibility, religious or political beliefs, age, sexual orientation or any other non-relevant demographic characteristic. Gender diversity is essential to Orora’s continued success and a particular focus for the Company. During the reporting period, we made significant progress towards the diversity targets set during the financial year ended 30 June 2015. Orora’s diversity targets state that by the financial year ending 30 June 2017, females will comprise 30% of new recruits in leadership positions and across the organisation as a whole. During the reporting period, the Company improved its gender outcomes for each major team member category and increased its overall female hiring rate by 20%. CASE STUDY Investment in innovation driving improved resource efficiency The last two years have seen a step change in resource efficiency at Orora Australasia’s Fibre Packaging manufacturing site in Scoresby, Victoria. Energy efficiency improvements in compressed air management, lighting, insulation, automated control systems and improved shut down systems have resulted in CO2 emission reductions of 9% per unit of output since 2014. Investment in a new wastewater treatment system, which optimises microbial digestion to significantly reduce the volume of solids in the treatment process, has resulted in significant savings in waste generation and water use. Females as % of New Hires 30% 34% 22% 26% 21% Leadership Positions Overall FY15 FY16 Target During the financial year ended 30 June 2016, Orora implemented a range of both new and ongoing initiatives aimed at supporting its female team members and improving the gender diversity of its workforce including: • formal networking and mentoring opportunities with senior leaders and Board members • Orora leadership and team member participation in industry research programs by Melbourne Business School and University of South Australia • continuing to leverage our position as a founding and ongoing corporate partner and sponsor of the National Association of Women in Operations (NAWO), including key board and committee appointments • Orora Chairman Chris Roberts’ public commitment to female board members making up a minimum of 30% of Orora’s Board of Directors by 2018 in line with board diversity targets set by the Australian Institute of Company Directors (also known as The 30% Club). Although this target has already been met (currently 33%), this public commitment remains an important component of our Diversity Strategy • team member events across Australia, New Zealand and North America celebrating International Women’s Day attended by approximately 500 female team members (an increase of almost 50% from 2015). In the year ahead, Orora will continue to focus on improving gender diversity within the Company and report openly on its progress. Further information on Orora’s diversity initiatives can be found in Orora’s Corporate Governance Statement at www.ororagroup.com/investor-relations/governance The site has achieved a 95% reduction in hazardous waste generation, 20% reduction in general waste to landfill and a 15% reduction in overall water use. This case study shows that through the application of innovative technology, improved environmental performance can also deliver significant cost savings. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 29 OUR APPROACH TO SUSTAINABILITY Orora continues to deliver innovative decorative capabilities with its glass shrink sleeve decoration as a value add product to its bottles. Community giving In addition to Orora’s workplace giving programs, this year the Company has also supported a number of community initiatives relevant to Orora’s packaging expertise. The Company has continued its long-term support of Foodbank, a not-for-profit organisation providing food and nutrition for vulnerable Australians, and has also teamed up with SecondBite, an organisation that provides fresh, nutritious food to people in need (see Orora teams up with SecondBite case study). Engaging our team members Orora recognises that the talent, passion and engagement of our team members is critical to the Company’s ongoing success. During the financial year ended 30 June 2016, Orora conducted its first global engagement survey to measure engagement across each Orora business and seek team member views on a range of topics, including leadership, strategy, reward and team work. Pleasingly, team member engagement had increased by 10% since 2012, when the previous survey was conducted prior to the Company’s demerger from Amcor Limited, and now sits above the norm for manufacturing companies. CASE STUDY Orora teams up with SecondBite Orora proudly supports SecondBite, an organisation that provides fresh, nutritious food to people in need by rescuing and redistributing surplus food. Orora supported SecondBite with the provision of 1,600 boxes. These boxes were filled with over 8,000 tonnes of rescued fresh produce, which is enough fruit and vegetables to provide over 16,000 healthy meals for people in need across Melbourne, saving community partners $24,000 in food costs alone. Putting healthy food on empty plates has significant community impact – socially, economically and environmentally. By rescuing and redistributing food that would otherwise go to landfill, Orora also helped SecondBite save close to 600,000 litres of water, 50,000 kilowatts of energy and 50,000 kilograms of CO2 emissions. Orora helped SecondBite feed people not landfill. See www.secondbite.org. 30 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWPRINCIPAL RISKS Orora actively manages a range of principal risks and uncertainties with the potential to have a material impact on the Orora Group and its ability to achieve its stated objectives. While every effort is made to identify and manage material risks, additional risks not currently known or detailed below may also adversely affect future performance. Orora’s principal risks are outlined below in no particular order.* Risk Description Mitigation Strategies Economic Conditions Orora is susceptible to major changes in macro-economic conditions in a single country, region or market. Sudden and/or prolonged deterioration in the economy may impact the value chain or industries on which Orora is dependent and could have a material negative impact on financial performance. Country and Regulatory Risk Customer Consumer Preferences Orora predominantly operates in Australia, New Zealand and the United States. Orora also operates in other jurisdictions across a broad range of legal, accounting, tax, regulatory and political systems, some of which are subject to rapid change. The profitability of those operations may be adversely impacted by changes in the fiscal or regulatory regimes, difficulties in interpreting or complying with the local laws of those countries and reversal of current political, judicial or administrative policies. Orora’s customers, many of which operate across a broad range of countries, are subject to regulatory risk in various jurisdictions, which may have an impact on their operations and consequently Orora’s operations. Orora has strong relationships with key customers for the supply of packaging products and associated packaging-related services. These relationships are fundamental to Orora’s success, and the loss of key customers may have a negative impact on financial performance. Changes in consumer preferences may result in some of Orora’s existing product range becoming obsolete or new products not meeting sales and margin expectations. Orora may not be able to accurately predict demand, end-user preferences and evolving industry standards, and this may result in the inability to meet consumer demand in a timely and cost effective manner. Orora seeks to mitigate the severity of impact that deterioration in macro-economic conditions in a single country, region or market may have by: • operating businesses that have a broad spread of geographic locations, raw material inputs and customers servicing a number of end markets • deploying an operating model that focuses on continually improving the value proposition to customers • creating and maintaining a high-performance culture • remaining disciplined in cash and cost management • continuing to invest in manufacturing capabilities to improve cost positions. Orora continually monitors changes or proposed changes in regulatory regimes that may have an impact on Orora and, where appropriate, engages consultants and advisors to address specific issues. Where possible, Orora appoints local management teams that bring a strong understanding of the local operating environment and strong customer relationships. Orora also has a global compliance training program across the Orora Group and its business leaders regularly review country risk. Orora seeks to mitigate this risk by delivering a superior value proposition to its customers by leveraging its operating model. Key to the success of this strategy is a continued drive on customer focus (delivery in full, on time and within specification), low cost and innovation. In addition, no single customer within an operating segment generates revenue greater than 10% of total revenue for the Orora Group. Orora works closely with its customers and suppliers to propose solutions that address evolving consumer preferences. Orora also continues to build on its innovation capability to achieve the objective of being the innovation leader for the packaging industry. Competition Orora operates in highly competitive markets with varying barriers to entry, industry structures and competitor motivational patterns. The actions of established or potential competitors may have a negative impact on financial performance. Orora is ideally placed to leverage both its regional experience and insight, and its international footprint and scale to deliver new ideas and value propositions to customers to gain competitive advantage. Orora also recognises innovation as a source of competitive advantage. * Environmental and social sustainability risks that are not considered material are referred to in the ‘Sustainability’ section of this Annual Report. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 31 PRINCIPAL RISKS Risk Supply Chain Description Mitigation Strategies Disruption to Orora’s supply chain caused by an interruption to the availability of key components, raw materials or by technology failure may adversely impact sales and/or customer relations, resulting in unexpected costs. Orora’s businesses are sensitive to input price risks, including energy and other commodities, in various forms and with varying degrees of impact. Although Orora seeks to mitigate these risks through various input pricing strategies, there is no guarantee that Orora will be able to manage all future commodity and input price movements. Failure to do so may adversely affect Orora’s operations and financial performance. Orora’s approach to supply chain risk management is multi-faceted and includes: • implementing a multi-sourcing strategy for the supply of raw materials • customer contracts that provide for regular and timely pass-through of movements in raw materials input costs • supplier due diligence and risk management. Financial and Treasury Orora faces a variety of risks arising from the unpredictability of financial markets, including the cost and availability of funds to meet its business needs and movements in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) Talent Orora’s growth opportunities are dependent, in part, on disciplined selection of suitable targets in the right geographies with the right participation strategy. Failure to be disciplined in selection, effective at integration or focused on capturing value could impact operations and have adverse consequences for the achievement of expected financial benefits. Orora’s operating and financial performance is largely dependent on its ability to attract and retain talent and, in particular, key personnel. Any loss of key personnel could adversely affect operating and financial performance. Business Interruption and Disruption Orora operates numerous manufacturing plants across a number of countries. Circumstances such as natural disaster, cyber breaches, operational failure or industrial disruption may occur, which may preclude key sites from operating. In these circumstances, financial performance may be negatively impacted. Orora’s treasury function adopts financial risk management policies approved by the Board. Appropriate commercial terms are negotiated and derivative financial instruments are used, such as foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps, to hedge these risk exposures. In addition, where possible, Orora plans to proportionally draw down debt in currencies that align with the proportion of assets in those same currencies, thereby creating a natural hedge. Orora’s strategy team works with the Orora Group businesses to identify suitable targets that are aligned to Orora’s overall strategy. An M&A framework is in place that imposes rigour in target selection, approval, due diligence, integration preparation/planning and post-merger value capture. Orora’s human resource strategy is designed to ensure that: • Orora has access to the widest possible pool of talent, through its diversity framework • recruitment, training and development, talent identification and retention programs are in place • a high-performance culture is delivered by setting challenging objectives and rewarding high-performing individuals • remuneration is competitive in the relevant employment markets in order to attract, motivate and retain talent, and is aligned with business outcomes that deliver value to shareholders. Orora undertakes business continuity and disaster preparedness planning for high value or strategically important sites and functions. This includes continuously monitoring and, as appropriate, enhancing our information security capabilities to keep pace with the evolving nature and sophistication of cyber threats. Orora also engages in continuous identification, review and mitigation of property risks, as well as independent loss prevention audits. Litigation As is the case with all businesses, Orora is exposed to potential legal and other claims or disputes in the ordinary course of business, including contractual disputes and other claims. Orora takes legal advice in respect of such claims and, where relevant, makes provisions and disclosure regarding such claims in its financial statements. There are no current claims or disputes of a material nature. 32 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWDIRECTORS’ REPORT The Directors of Orora Limited (‘the Company’) present their report, together with the Financial Statements of the Company and its controlled entities (collectively referred to as ‘the consolidated entity’ or the ‘Orora Group’), for the year ended 30 June 2016 IN THIS SECTION IN THIS SECTION Statutory Matters Board of Directors Company Secretary Directors’ meetings Operating and financial review State of affairs Principal activities Events subsequent to the end of the financial year Likely developments Dividends Environmental performance and reporting Directors’ interests Unissued shares under option Shares issued on exercise of options On-market share purchases to satisfy employee share plans Indemnification and insurance of officers Indemnification of auditors Proceedings on behalf of the Company Non-audit services Rounding off Loans to Directors and senior executives Corporate Governance Statement Remuneration Report Auditor’s Independence Declaration 34 34 34 34 34 34 34 35 35 35 35 36 36 36 36 36 37 37 37 37 37 37 38 53 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 33 STATUTORY MATTERS Board of Directors The Directors of the Company in office as at the date of this report are: C I (Chris) Roberts N D (Nigel) Garrard A P (Abi) Cleland S L (Samantha) Lewis G J (John) Pizzey J L (Jeremy) Sutcliffe All directors served on the Board for the period from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016.

Refer to note 6.3 of the Financial Statements. Environmental performance and reporting The Orora Group is committed to continuous improvement of its environmental performance by finding better ways to manufacture and distribute its products. This is guided by the Orora Group’s Environmental Policy, a copy of which is available on the Orora Group’s website. (a) Carbon emissions The National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (Safeguard Mechanism) Rule 2015 (“Rule”) made under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (Cth) (“NGER Act”) applies to facilities with direct CO2 emissions (scope 1) of greater than 100,000 tonnes per year. These facilities are required to maintain their direct emissions below their historical peak level. Facilities that exceed their historical peak CO2 emissions will be required to purchase CO2 credits to offset their increase in emissions. The only Orora Group facility that exceeds the 100,000 tonnes per year CO2 threshold is the glass facility in Gawler, South Australia. This facility will comply with its obligations under this Rule. (b) Greenhouse gas requirements In Australia, the Orora Group is subject to reporting obligations under the NGER Act. The NGER Act requires the Company to report on its annual Australian greenhouse gas emissions and energy use. The Orora Group has data gathering and management systems in place that comply with the NGER Act and the Clean Energy Regulator’s audit processes.

The average price per security at which these shares were purchased was $2.25. Indemnification and insurance of officers In accordance with the Company’s Constitution, the Company has entered into agreements with each person who is, or has been, an officer of the Company. This includes the directors in office at the date of this report, all former directors and other executive officers of the Company, indemnifying them against any liability to any person other than the Company, or a related body corporate that may arise from their acting as officers of the Company, notwithstanding that they may have ceased to hold office.

During and since the financial year ended 30 June 2016: • no premium has been paid by the Company in respect of any insurance for PwC • no indemnity has been paid by the Company in respect of PwC’s appointment as auditor • no officers of the Company were partners or directors of PwC, while PwC undertook an audit of the Company. Proceedings on behalf of the Company No proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the Company with leave of the Court, nor has any application for leave been made in respect of the Company, under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001. Non-audit services During the year, PwC, the Company’s auditor, performed certain other services in addition to their statutory duties. The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor and, in accordance with written advice provided by resolution of the Audit & Compliance Committee, is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services during the financial year by the auditors is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: • All non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the Audit & Compliance Committee to ensure they do not impact the impartiality and objectivity of the auditor. In particular, all non-audit services are approved in accordance with the non-audit services delegations and approvals framework and reported to the Audit & Compliance Committee at each meeting. • The non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards. A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under Section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 can be found at the end of Remuneration Report within the Directors’ Report. Details of the amounts paid to PwC and its related practices for audit and non-audit services provided during the financial year are set out in note 7.2 to the Financial Statements. In each case, the engagement of PwC was made on its merits (based on service level, expertise, cost, as well as geographical spread). Rounding off The Company is of a kind referred to in the Australian Investments and Securities Commission Instrument 2016/191. In accordance with the ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, and except where otherwise stated, amounts in the Financial Statements and Directors’ Report have been rounded off to the nearest $100,000 or to zero where the amount is $50,000 or less. Loans to Directors and senior executives There are no loans to Directors or senior executives to report.

ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 37 REMUNERATION REPORT I am proud to be part of a company that is investing for future growth, and am excited to be part of this continuing story in the year ahead. Dear Fellow Shareholder, On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to present Orora’s Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2016. Strong company performance Orora’s management team has continued its focus on outperformance throughout the year, driving value for shareholders. This was achieved by capitalising on growth opportunities, investing for innovation and maintaining financial discipline through self-help programs. In addition, a compelling source of competitive advantage for Orora is its team members, who have played a key role in shaping Orora’s culture and developing The Orora Way – its belief statement, company values and outperformance deliverables that set it apart. Over the period, Orora has again delivered a solid set of financial and non-financial results, including a 24.6% increase in earnings before interest & tax (EBIT) to $280.5 million. This translates, from a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) perspective, to a 24% increase every year since the pro forma 30 June 2013 result achieved shortly prior to Orora’s establishment in December 2013. This Company performance is reflected in the short-term incentive (STI) payments for the executive key management personnel (Executive KMP), which were paid out between 73.5% – 81.8% of their maximum STI opportunity. Although, this reflects a number of financial and non-financial metrics (at a group and individual level), this STI result was primarily driven by the achievement of earnings per share (EPS) at 14.1 cents (up 29.4% from FY15). Improving value for shareholders One of the key objectives of Orora’s remuneration strategy is to drive long-term value for shareholders. Orora’s incentive plans achieve this by aligning challenging and relevant performance metrics with competitive and appropriate executive reward. The Orora management team has delivered on its promise to shareholders, and consistently delivered this value with a cumulative total shareholder return (TSR) of 148.1% since listing in December 2013. In the financial year ended 30 June 2016, TSR was 36.1%. Remuneration changes during the financial year Orora regularly reviews its approach to executive remuneration to ensure it remains relevant, competitive, and appropriate in the context of changing business and economic environments. During the financial year, the Board approved a change in the remuneration structure for Orora’s Other Executive KMP (excludes the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer) to align them to a total fixed remuneration (TFR) approach. Prior to FY16, the fixed remuneration for Orora’s Other Executive KMP was split between base salary and other fixed remuneration (OFR). Both short-term and long-term incentives were calculated as a percentage of the base salary only. The move to TFR would have resulted in an uplift in the total remuneration package, therefore it was decided to recalibrate the potential outcome by reducing the target short-term incentive opportunity from 52.5% of base salary to 50% of TFR for Other Executive KMP. The Board recognised this approach to be consistent with market practice for comparable organisations to Orora, and appropriate for Orora’s Other Executive KMP. This also aligns their structure to that of the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, whose remuneration structure did not change during the period. No other changes were made to Orora’s approach to remuneration during the financial year ended 30 June 2016. Role of the Human Resources Committee As Chair of the Human Resources Committee, it is my role, together with my fellow Committee members, to ensure that Orora’s Senior Executives are motivated and incentivised to develop and successfully execute against a long-term strategy that grows the business and generates shareholder returns. The Committee is confident the remuneration structure in place for Orora’s Senior Executives provides the appropriate level and mix of both fixed remuneration and short and long-term incentives to do so. Successful execution against Orora’s strategy also relies on the quality and engagement of all Orora team members. As such, the Human Resources Committee is accountable for ensuring that all aspects of Orora’s talent management program appeal to, attract and retain the best possible talent and develop that talent as a key differentiator for the Company. The Committee is confident that Orora’s management team has developed and adopted an appropriate talent, development and diversity agenda that focuses on growing Orora’s bench strength, identifying and accelerating the progression of high potential team members, enhancing diversity and developing the core capabilities of Orora’s people. It has been my pleasure to serve on the Board of Orora Limited and Chair the Human Resources Committee during the financial year ended 30 June 2016. I am proud to be part of a company that is investing for future growth, and am excited to be part of this continuing story in the year ahead. JOHN PIZZEY Chair, Human Resources Committee 38 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS’ REPORTIntroduction The Directors of Orora Limited (‘Orora’ or the ‘Company’) present the Remuneration Report (which forms part of the Directors’ Report) prepared in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 for the Company and its controlled entities (collectively, the ‘Group’ or ‘Orora Group’) for the financial year ended 30 June 2016. Structure of this report Orora’s 2016 Remuneration Report is divided into the following sections: Section Message from John Pizzey, Chair Human Resources Committee 1 Key management personnel (KMP) 2 Remuneration governance 3 Remuneration strategy and structure 4 FY16 Executive KMP remuneration 5 FY16 Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration 1. Key management personnel Page No. 38 39 40 41 44 51 For the purposes of this Remuneration Report, key management personnel (KMP) includes each of the Directors, both executive and non-executive, and nominated Senior Executives who have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Orora Group either directly or indirectly. In this Remuneration Report, ‘Executive KMP’ refers to the KMP other than the Non-Executive Directors (and includes the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer). The use of the term ‘Senior Executives’ in this remuneration report is a reference to the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer and all of his direct reports (including the Other Executive KMP), not all of whom meet the definition of a KMP. References to ‘Other Executive KMP’ means the Executive KMP excluding the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer. Non-Executive Directors have oversight of the strategic direction of the Orora Group but no direct involvement in the day-to-day management of the business. Particulars of KMP and Senior Executives’ qualifications, experience and special responsibilities are detailed on pages 10 to 13. The KMP covered in this report are listed in Table 1.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE POLICIES RELATED TO EXECUTIVE KMP REMUNERATION 40 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS’ REPORTREMUNERATION REPORT 2.2. Corporate governance policies related to Executive KMP remuneration 2.2.1. Minimum shareholding policy To strengthen alignment of the interests of the Executive KMP and other Senior Executives with value creation for shareholders, they must build and maintain a minimum shareholding of shares in the Company. The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer is required to build and maintain a shareholding equivalent to 100% of total fixed remuneration within six years of his/her appointment and Other Executive KMP and other Senior Executives are required to build and maintain a shareholding equivalent to 50% of total fixed remuneration within six years of their appointment. Once the relevant minimum shareholding has been reached, the Executive KMP and other Senior Executives must not dispose of Orora shares obtained from awards under Orora’s equity-based incentive schemes granted on or after 1 January 2014, where to do so would result in them holding less than the relevant minimum shareholding. Further details can be found within the Corporate Governance section of the Orora website at: http://media.ororagroup.com/documents/orora_minimum_shareholding_policy.pdf. 2.2.2. Share trading policy The Board has implemented blackout periods during which all Orora team members (including Executive KMP and other Senior Executives) and Non-Executive Directors are unable to trade in Orora shares. Further detail can be found within the Corporate Governance section on the Orora website at: http://media.ororagroup.com/documents/orora-share-trading-policy.pdf. Hedging of securities Executive KMP and other Senior Executives are prohibited under the Share Trading Policy from engaging in hedging arrangements over unvested securities issued under team member share plans. This prohibition extends to vested securities held by Executive KMP and other Senior Executives to which the Minimum Shareholding Policy applies. Non-Executive Directors do not participate in Orora’s team member share plans. 2.2.3. Senior executive reward and evaluation policy The Board has a policy which outlines its commitment to ensure the structure of Orora Group remuneration is aligned to business outcomes that deliver value to shareholders. Further detail can be found within the Corporate Governance section on the Orora website at: http://media.ororagroup.com/documents/orora_senior_executive_reward_evaluation_policy.pdf. 3. Remuneration strategy and structure 3.1. Remuneration strategy Orora’s executive remuneration strategy is designed to drive a high performance culture, pay for performance, attract, motivate and retain talent and, ultimately, create long-term value for shareholders. Through plans that are designed to reward for the delivery of sustainable returns for shareholders. Through a significant portion of remuneration being delivered through performance-based rewards. CREATE LONG-TERM VALUE FOR SHAREHOLDERS DRIVE A HIGH-PERFORMANCE CULTURE ATTRACT, MOTIVATE & RETAIN TALENT PAY FOR PERFORMANCE Through market competitive remuneration reflective of scope of role, geographic location, experience and performance. Through strategy aligned and challenging performance measures being set for each of its reward plans. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 41 3.2. Remuneration Framework for Executive KMP The remuneration of Orora’s Executive KMP is delivered using both fixed and variable (at-risk) components as outlined in Table 3. Specific outcomes and performance measures for the financial year ended 30 June 2016 are included in Section 4. Table 3 Component Payment vehicle Performance measure/s Link to strategy Fixed Remuneration Fixed remuneration for the Executive KMP is set by referencing the market median remuneration for similar roles in listed companies of similar size to Orora, competing in comparable geographic locations. + Short-Term Incentive (at-risk) Orora’s STI is designed to reward Executive KMP for the achievement of the key short-term performance measures in each financial year. + Long-Term Incentive (at-risk) Orora’s LTI is designed to reward Executive KMP for the achievement of long-term sustainable business outcomes and value creation for shareholders. = Fixed remuneration consists of cash salary and retirement benefits1. Individual fixed remuneration is reflective of scope of role, geographic location, skills, responsibilities, experience and performance. Market competitive fixed remuneration is paid to attract, motivate and retain Executive KMP with the appropriate experience and talent to drive Orora’s strategy. Any award achieved will be delivered, following the release of the end of year results, in the form of both cash and deferred equity (performance rights). 2/3 Cash Payment 1/3 Deferred Equity (Performance Rights) – deferred for two years Executive KMP are allocated both Performance Rights (75%) and Options (25%), with vesting based on the delivery of set performance measures over a 4-year performance period. Grants are made using Market Value (Performance Rights) and Fair Value (Options) but may be adjusted nominally at the Board’s discretion. A scorecard of performance measures is used to determine any STI award payable. This is measured at Orora Group level. This scorecard represents the key priority areas for the current year and typically include safety, strategic initiatives and has a strong weighting towards financial growth and returns. 1. Compound Annual Growth Rate in EPS with a RoAFE gateway (all Options and 1/3 of Performance Rights). An exercise price also applies to Options. 2. Relative Total Shareholder Return (2/3 of Performance Rights). The STI provides a reward linked to the delivery of short-term objectives, and the equity deferral both aligns overall reward outcomes to longer-term value creation for shareholders, and acts as a retention tool. The LTI builds Executive KMP equity ownership. It also aligns the interests of the Executive KMP with our shareholders by having an exercise price for Options, as no Options are earned unless earnings and returns increase and this is reflected in an increased share price. Total Remuneration The sum of all fixed and variable (at-risk) elements of remuneration Optional Component (used only on a limited basis) Retention Share/Payment Plan (CEO Grant) Time-restricted (up to five years) shares or cash, subject to forfeiture in the event of voluntary termination or termination for cause. Used on a limited basis at recruitment to replace existing entitlements from previous employers or as retention awards to existing executives. (1) Retirement benefits are delivered under defined contribution funds for all Executive KMP. Retirement benefits are set by reference to regulatory requirements in the relevant employing jurisdictions. 42 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS’ REPORTREMUNERATION REPORT3.3.

FY16 Executive KMP remuneration Orora has a strong performance-based culture. The Board seeks to foster this through rewarding Senior Executives for the achievement of the Group’s short-term and long-term strategy and business objectives, with a view to generating above-average, sustainable returns for shareholders. 4.1. Shareholder return information Table 4 summarises key indicators of the performance of the Orora Group and relevant shareholder returns over the financial year ended 30 June 2016. This table will be expanded in future years to include a five-year summary of the Orora Group’s financial results. Table 4 Financial Summary for year ended 30 June EBIT ($m) Dividends per ordinary share (cents) Closing share price (as at 30 June) EPS Growth (%) NPAT ($m) Cumulative TSR (%)(3) Operating Free Cash Flow(4) ($m) RoAFE(5) (%) 2016(1) 2015 2014(2) 280.5 225.1 192.1 9.5 $2.76 29.4% 168.6 36.1% 313.8 12.7% 7.5 $2.09 25.9% 6.0 $1.43 – 131.4 104.4 51.2% 260.8 10.6% – 218.9 9.3% (1) EBIT and NPAT are as reported and include the one off profit on the sale of the Petrie land. EPS Growth has also been based on this NPAT number. (2) Effective 17 December 2013, the Orora Group demerged from Amcor Ltd. The demerger was implemented on 31 December 2013. As a result of the corporate restructure to effect the demerger, the Orora Group’s statutory financial information as at 30 June 2014 did not represent the performance of the Orora Group as it is currently structured. Accordingly, the pro forma financial results of the Orora Group (which forms the base for future performance assessment) have been disclosed above in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2014 and are presented on a pre-significant items basis. (3) Total shareholder return (TSR) is calculated as the change in share price for the year, plus dividends paid during the financial year, divided by opening share price. (4) Operating Free Cash Flow excludes cash significant items that are considered to be outside the ordinary course of operations and non-recurring in nature but includes net capital expenditure. (5) Return on Average Funds Employed (RoAFE) is calculated as EBIT/average funds employed. 4.2. Pay for performance The Board has set challenging financial and non-financial performance targets for Senior Executives and has directly aligned Senior Executive incentives to the achievement of those targets for the financial year ended 30 June 2016. The ‘Pay for Performance’ link is clear: Target performance achieved = target rewards paid. Above-target performance achieved = above-target rewards paid. Where the Orora Group’s performance does not meet the Board’s performance targets, either reduced or no benefits are earned from a Senior Executives’ at-risk short-term or long-term incentive components. An outline of the Orora Executive KMP remuneration framework is set out in section 3.2. A summary of the outcomes for each reward component in the financial year ended 30 June 2016 is provided in the section below in respect of the Executive KMP. 4.3. Fixed remuneration Fixed remuneration was reviewed for each of the Executive KMP by referencing the market median remuneration for similar roles in listed companies, of similar size to Orora, competing in comparable geographic locations. Appropriate adjustments were made for each of the Executive KMP giving consideration to their market position and individual performance. 44 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS’ REPORTREMUNERATION REPORT4.4. Short-term incentive (STI) As outlined in section 3.2 the Orora STI consists of two components, a cash component and a deferred equity component. Two-thirds of any STI award made annually is paid in the form of cash following the release of the end of year financial results, and one-third is deferred for a period of two years into time-based performance rights. Performance measures are carefully selected at the start of the financial year that align to the key short-term priority areas for the Orora Group. An overview of achievements against each of the performance measures selected for the financial year ended 30 June 2016 is included in Table 5. Table 5 KPI Group Safety Recordable Case Frequency Rate (RCFR) Group Earnings Earnings per Share (EPS) Group Returns Return of Average Funds Employed (RoAFE) Group Asset Management Average Working Capital (AWC) as a % of Sales Group Cash Flow Operating Free Cash Flow (OFCF) Personal Strategic Measures Performance against strategic measure/s in area of strategic influence Weighting Overview of performance 5% 35% – 55% 10% 5% 5% Safety performance (measured as RCFR) remained static during FY16, with no improvement on FY15 outcomes. Group earnings grew strongly in FY16 with reported EPS being 29.4% ahead of the reported EPS for FY15. With the increase in earnings, and close management of cash, RoAFE grew from 10.6% in FY15 to 12.7% in FY16. AWC management continued to be a priority and improvement was achieved over the FY15 result. Cash was managed closely, with cash conversion of projects being in excess of expectations. 20% – 40% The outcomes of these measures varied by individual Executive KMP, and by individual objective, with assessments ranging from ‘not achieved’ to ‘fully achieved’. At the conclusion of the financial year ended 30 June 2016, the Board made an assessment on the performance of each Executive KMP against each of the agreed performance measures, and determined any STI award outcome payable based on this assessment. In their assessment, the Board also considered how the Executive KMP achieved performance: • aligned to Orora’s company values • how proactive they were in overcoming challenges in the delivery of the final outcome • what their individual contribution was to the collective outperformance of Orora. The Board has exercised their discretion on the final STI outcome for the Executive KMP to normalise results to reflect underlying business performance (for example removing the translation benefit of earnings in foreign currency and the one off impacts from the sale of Petrie land), therefore mitigating the risk of any unintended award outcomes. For the financial year ended 30 June 2016, the average short-term incentive outcome for the Executive KMP was paid at above target levels, which aligns with the Group’s overall performance, which on balance exceeded the targets for the performance measures that were set at the beginning of the period. Details of the Executive KMP STI opportunity and actual payments received for the financial year ended 30 June 2016 are provided in Table 6.

Deferred performance right allocations will be determined based on the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s shares for the five trading days prior to 30 June 2016 ($2.69 per share). (2) An ASX waiver from the requirement of Listing Rule 10.14 to obtain separate shareholder approval for the grant of deferred performance rights to N D Garrard under the STI was obtained at the time of the Orora Group’s demerger from Amcor Ltd. The Company intends that where deferred performance rights vest under the STI, the right to acquire a share in respect of each deferred performance right will be satisfied by the Company arranging to acquire shares on behalf of N D Garrard on market, however the Company may instead issue new ordinary shares to N D Garrard. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 45 STI deferred performance rights The Board considers the use of time-restricted equity in the form of deferred performance rights to be a key component of Orora’s STI program. Orora uses deferred performance rights to provide for greater talent retention and alignment with shareholders’ interests through exposure to Orora’s share price movements. The number of performance rights to be allocated under the STI to the Executive KMP is based on: • one-third of the total STI award payable following the end of the performance period • the volume-weighted average price of Orora shares for the five trading days prior to 30 June (the end of the performance period). The vesting of deferred performance rights is subject to a continued service condition of two years (from the date of the grant). Each Executive KMP’s allocation is subject to a risk of forfeiture if that member of the Executive KMP either voluntarily leaves Orora’s employment during the restriction period, or if employment is terminated for cause. Board discretion regarding vesting and/or forfeiture applies in all cases when an Executive KMP leaves Orora’s employment. 4.5. Long-term incentive (LTI) This section summarises the LTI component of remuneration offered to the Executive KMP during the financial year ended 30 June 2016. 4.5.1. Incentive Securities The FY16 grant was made up of two different incentive securities (Incentive Securities): • 75% performance rights to acquire fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (Rights) • 25% options over fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (Options). 4.5.2. Performance period and vesting Performance will be assessed for the period from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2019. Vesting will occur following the release of the full year results for the financial year ended 30 June 2019, anticipated to be in August 2019. Vesting will occur prior to the ex-dividend date for the full year dividend. 4.5.3. Performance hurdles Two performance hurdles apply to the FY16 grant as detailed in Table 7, consisting of: • Earnings per share (EPS) hurdle (based on the Company’s compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in EPS over the relevant Performance Period), with a separate minimum ‘gateway’ based on return on average funds employed (RoAFE). • Relative total shareholder return (TSR) hurdle, which compares the TSR performance of the Company with the TSR performance of each of the entities in a comparator group, with no gateway. The combination of RoAFE and EPS represents a strong measure of overall business performance. Having an exercise price for Options ensures that this performance translates into value creation for shareholders, as no Options are earned unless the share price increases. The use of a relative TSR condition for Rights provides a shareholder perspective of the Company’s relative performance against comparable Australian ASX-listed companies. Table 7 LTI hurdles EPS hurdle (with a RoAFE gateway) 50% weighting Options (100% of Options) Rights (1/3 of Rights) • EPS hurdle with RoAFE gateway Relative TSR 50% weighting Rights (2/3 of Rights) Incentive Securities subject to the EPS hurdle first need to meet a minimum RoAFE gateway in order to vest according to the EPS vesting schedule in Chart 2. RoAFE will be calculated as earnings before interest and tax (post significant items, subject to Board discretion) divided by the average funds employed in each financial year at the 30 June testing date. The RoAFE gateway, for the LTI grant for the financial year ended 30 June 2016 is 11.9%. If the RoAFE gateway is not met in the relevant performance period set out above (Performance Period), all Incentive Securities in that grant subject to the EPS hurdle will lapse. If the RoAFE gateway for the grant is met in the relevant Performance Period, the Incentive Securities subject to the EPS hurdle will vest in accordance with the EPS vesting schedule in Chart 2. EPS measures the earnings generated by the Company attributable to each Orora share. EPS is calculated based on net profit after tax (NPAT) post significant items calculated on a constant currency basis (subject to Board discretion) for the relevant financial year, divided by the weighted average number of Orora shares on issue. 46 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS’ REPORTREMUNERATION REPORTThe growth in the Company’s EPS over the relevant Performance Period will be calculated as the increase in audited EPS over the base of 10.55 cents (the EPS outcome calculated on a constant currency basis for the financial year ended 30 June 2015). The compound growth in EPS will be expressed as a cumulative percentage. The percentage of Incentive Securities subject to the EPS hurdle (which vest subject to achievement of the RoAFE gateway) will be determined based on the performance achieved against the EPS vesting schedule set out in Chart 2, subject to any adjustments for significant items that the Board, in its discretion, considers appropriate.

At 10% p.a. or greater % compound annual growth in EPS over the Performance Period TSR measures the growth in the Company’s share price together with the value of dividends declared and paid or any other returns of capital during the Performance Period against companies ranked 50 to 150 on the S&P index as at 1 July 2015 (Comparator Group). The share price used to calculate the TSR of the Company and each Comparator Group company for the Performance Period will be measured as follows: • the opening share price is the volume-weighted average price on the ASX of the Company, or the applicable Comparator Group company, for the final five trading days of the previous financial year (up to 30 June 2015) • to ensure the impact of share price volatility is minimised, the closing price will be the volume-weighted average price on the ASX of the Company, or the applicable Comparator Group company, for the 20 trading days ending on the last day of the Performance Period (up to 30 June 2019). The percentage of Rights subject to the TSR hurdle that vest, if any, will be determined by reference to the percentile ranking achieved by the Company, over the relevant Performance Period, compared to the other entities in the Comparator Group as outlined in Chart 3.

Any dealing in respect of an unvested Right or unvested or unexercised Option is prohibited, unless the Board determines otherwise or the dealing is required by law. • Incentive Securities do not carry any dividend or voting rights prior to vesting and, where applicable, prior to exercise. • Executive KMP are not obliged to participate in the LTI offer. 4.6.

(2) The figures in this column for share-based payments are not actually provided to the Executive KMP in the financial periods presented. The amounts represent the accounting fair value of restricted shares, options, rights and performance rights granted, collectively referred to as the ‘grants’. In accordance with the Accounting Standards the accounting fair value of the grants is recognised proportionally over the grant’s performance period. Refer to sections 4.4 and 4.6 for further details of the grants, their performance conditions and performance periods. The amounts presented above, for both 2015 and 2016, represent management’s best estimate, at the date of this report, of the likelihood that the performance conditions of the grants will be met and will therefore vest, at which point the Executive KMP will be entitled to receive the share-based payment. Management’s expectation of the grants vesting has changed since last year and as a result, the 2015 amounts have been restated for comparability purposes to reflect current expectations of the employee benefit over the applicable performance period. If the performance conditions are not met, the Executive KMP will not be entitled to the share-based payment. In addition, the amounts presented within options and rights for 2016 include an additional amount, compared to the prior period, representing the LTI award granted during the current period.

FY16 Non-Executive Director remuneration 5.1. Fee Policy The Non-Executive Director fee policy enables the Company to attract and retain high-quality Directors with relevant experience. The fee policy is reviewed annually by the Human Resources Committee. The fees are set after consideration of fees in companies of comparable size, complexity, industry, and geography, and reflect the qualifications and experience necessary to discharge the Board’s responsibilities. The current Non-Executive Director aggregate fee limit is $1,900,000 as approved by shareholders at the 2015 Annual General Meeting. Non-Executive Directors receive an annual fixed ‘base’ fee of $201,600 for their role as board members, plus additional fees for chairs and members of Board Committees to reflect the additional time and responsibility required. The Chairman receives an annual fixed fee of $403,200, but does not receive additional fees for his involvement with Committees. A 3% increase was applied in the financial year ended 30 June 2016 to the fixed base fees and committee fees for Non-Executive Directors and the annual fixed fee for the Chairman. 5.2. Performance-based remuneration and minimum shareholding Non-Executive Directors do not receive performance-based remuneration and are not granted equity instruments by Orora as part of their compensation. Non-Executive Directors are not subject to a minimum shareholding policy. This is consistent with the principles of independence and impartiality adopted by the Board.

The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the Group) are primarily involved in the manufacture and supply of packaging products and services to grocery, fast-moving consumer goods and industrial markets. This general purpose financial report for the Group for the year ended 30 June 2016 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 15 August 2016. The Directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial report. This financial report is a general purpose financial report which: • has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs), including Australian Accounting Interpretations adopted by the AASB, and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report of the Group also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and Interpretations as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB); • has been prepared under the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which have been measured at fair value. Non-derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value through the income statement; • is presented in Australian dollars with values rounded to the nearest $100,000 unless otherwise stated, in accordance with the ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191; • presents reclassified comparative information where required for consistency with the current period presentation; • adopts all new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the operations of the Group and effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2015; • does not early adopt any Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have been issued or amended but are not yet effective, with the exception of AASB 9 Financial Instruments (December 2014), including consequential amendments to other standards, which was adopted on 1 July 2015. Refer to note 7.8 for further details; and • has applied the Group accounting policies consistently to all periods presented. Key judgements and estimates The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its controlled entities. Details of the controlled entities (subsidiaries) of the Company are contained in note 6.1. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that the Group obtains control until the date that control ceases. The subsidiary financial statements are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies and all balances and transactions between entities included within the Group are eliminated. The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting when control is obtained by the Group. Foreign currency Items included in the financial statements of each of the entities included within the Group are measured using the currency of the economic environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash (the ‘functional currency’). These financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the functional and reporting currency of the Company, Orora Limited. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency of the entity using the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of the monetary assets and liabilities, or from the settlement of foreign currency transactions, are recognised in the income statement, except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges or net investment hedges. The amounts deferred in equity in respect of cash flow hedges are recognised in the income statement when the hedged item affects profit or loss and for net investment hedges when the investment is disposed of. As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of entities within the Group that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency, are translated into Australian dollars at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date and the income statements are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. The exchange differences arising on the balance sheet translation are taken directly to a separate component of equity in the Exchange Fluctuation Reserve. The preparation of the financial statements requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Group’s accounting policies. It also requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity are set out below and in more detail in the related notes: Other accounting policies Significant and other accounting policies that summarise the measurement basis used and are relevant to an understanding of the financial statements are provided throughout the notes to the financial statements.

ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 61 Section 1: Results for the year IN THIS SECTION This section focuses on the results and performance of the Group. On the following pages you will find disclosures explaining the Group’s results for the year, segmental information and earnings per share. Earnings before interest and related income tax expense (EBIT) is the key profit indicator for the segments, reflecting the way the business is managed and how the Directors assess the performance of the Group. This section also analyses the Group’s profit before tax by reference to the activities performed by the Group and an analysis of key operating costs. Financial highlights of the Group • Sales revenue of $3,849.8 million, up 13.0% • EBIT of $280.5 million, up 24.6% • Operating free cash flow of $329.1 million, up 36.2% • Earnings per share of 14.1 cents, up 29.4% 1.1 Segment results The Group’s operating segments are organised and managed according to their geographical location. Each segment represents a strategic business that offers different products and operates in different industries and markets. The Corporate Executive Team (the chief operating decision-makers) monitor the operating results of the businesses separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The following summary describes the operations of each reportable segment. Orora Australasia This segment focuses on the manufacture of fibre and beverage packaging products within Australia and New Zealand. The products manufactured by this segment include glass bottles, beverage cans, wines closures, corrugated boxes, cartons and sacks, and the manufacture of recycled paper. Orora North America This segment, predominately located in North America, purchases, warehouses, sells and delivers a wide range of packaging and other related materials. The business also includes integrated corrugated sheet and box manufacturing and equipment sales capabilities and the recently acquired point of purchase retail display solutions and other visual communication services provided by the IntegraColor business (refer note 6.2). Other This segment includes the Corporate function of the Group. Accounting policies Segment performance is evaluated based on earnings before interest and related income tax expense (EBIT). This measure excludes the effects of individually significant non-recurring gains/losses whilst including items directly attributable to the segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Interest income and expenditure and other finance costs are not allocated to the segments, as this type of activity is managed at the Group level. Transfer prices between segments are priced on an ‘arms-length’ basis, in a manner similar to transactions with third parties, and are eliminated on consolidation. 62 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016The results of the reportable segments for the year ended 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2015 are set out below: Australasia North America Other Total Reported $ million 2016 2015 2016 2015 2016 2015 2016 2015 Reportable segment revenue Revenue from external customers Inter-segment revenue 1,956.6 48.6 1,935.5 35.2 1,893.2 – 1,472.3 – Total reportable segment revenue 2,005.2 1,970.7 1,893.2 1,472.3 – – – – – – 3,849.8 48.6 3,407.8 35.2 3,898.4 3,443.0 Reportable segment earnings Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation Depreciation and amortisation Earnings before interest and tax Capital spend on the acquisition of property, plant and equipment and intangibles Receivables Inventory Payables Working capital Inter-segment working capital Total reportable segment working capital 286.1 (85.7) 200.4 261.9 (80.3) 181.6 115.6 (16.7) 98.9 84.2 (12.6) 71.6 (13.7) (5.1) (18.8) (22.9) (5.2) (28.1) 388.0 (107.5) 280.5 323.2 (98.1) 225.1 82.7 86.5 27.1 20.2 0.3 3.6 110.1 110.3 262.6 333.6 (381.6) 214.6 14.9 232.5 339.3 (364.0) 207.8 13.8 252.6 125.8 (271.8) 106.6 (14.9) 201.6 111.8 (234.6) 78.8 (13.8) 7.1 – (50.5) (43.4) – 15.1 – (35.7) (20.6) – 522.3 459.4 (703.9) 277.8 – 449.2 451.1 (634.3) 266.0 – 229.5 221.6 91.7 65.0 (43.4) (20.6) 277.8 266.0 Average funds employed(1) 1,724.4 1,777.2 400.1 316.3 Operating free cash flow(2) 224.2 202.4 90.2 67.8 14.7 14.7 27.5 2,139.2 2,121.0 (28.6) 329.1 241.6 (1) Average funds employed represents total assets less net debt held at the beginning and end of the reporting period.

Basic EPS is calculated on the Group profit for the year attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company of $168.6 million (2015: $131.4 million) divided by the weighted average number of shares on issue during the reporting period, excluding ordinary shares purchased by the Company and held as Treasury Shares, being 1,194.9 million (2015: 1,203.0 million). Diluted EPS reflects any commitments made by the Group to issue shares in the future and so it includes the effect of the potential conversion of share options and rights granted to employees. To calculate the impact it is assumed that all share options and rights are exercised and new shares are issued. Calculation of EPS Calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share has been based on the following profit attributable to ordinary shareholders and weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. EPS attributable to the ordinary equity holders of Orora Limited million Profit for the financial period attributable to the owners of Orora Limited Weighted average number of ordinary shares for basic earnings per share Dilution due to share options and rights Weighted average number of ordinary shares for diluted earnings per share Basic earnings per share Diluted earnings per share 1.3 Income $ million Revenue from sale of goods Net gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment Net gain on disposal of available-for-sale financial instruments Net foreign exchange gains Service income Other Total other income Accounting policies 2016 2015 $168.6 $131.4 1,194.9 19.3 1,203.0 11.1 1,214.2 1,214.1 14.1c 13.9c 10.9c 10.8c 2016 2015 3,849.8 3,407.8 8.3 – 0.5 6.8 6.2 3.8 1.7 – 7.1 6.7 21.8 19.3 Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Selecting the appropriate timing and amount of revenue recognised requires some judgement. Sale of goods Revenue is recognised when the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer and it can be reliably measured. Risk and rewards are considered passed to the customer at the time of delivery of the goods. Revenue from the sale of products is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns allowances and discounts. No revenue is recognised if: • there is a risk of return of goods; • there is continuing managerial involvement with the goods; • there are significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due; or • the costs incurred or to be incurred cannot be measured reliably. Rendering of services With respect to services rendered, revenue is recognised in the period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts revenue is recognised depending on the stage of completion of the service to be provided.

Depreciation and amortisation Depreciation in the year was $101.2 million (2015: $92.6 million), whilst the amortisation charge was $6.3 million (2015: $5.5 million). Refer to notes 3.5 and 3.6 for the Group’s accounting policy and details on depreciation and amortisation. Operating leases The Group leases motor vehicles, plant and equipment and property which are classified as operating leases. The leases generally provide the Group with a right of renewal at which time all terms are renegotiated. Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, while any material lease incentive is recognised as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease. The minimum lease rental payments expensed during the year was $75.0 million (2015: $70.1 million). There were no contingent rental payments (2015: nil). Refer to note 7.3 for future operating lease commitments. 66 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Section 2: Income tax IN THIS SECTION This section sets out the Group’s tax accounting policies, the current and deferred tax charges or credits in the year (which together make up the total tax charge or credit in the income statement), a reconciliation of profit before tax to the tax charge for the period and the movements in the deferred tax assets and liabilities. 2.1 Income tax expense The total taxation charge in the income statement is analysed as follows: $ million Current tax expense Current period Adjustments relating to prior periods Total current tax expense Deferred tax expense Origination and reversal of temporary differences Total income tax expense Deferred income tax expense included in income tax expense comprises: (Decrease)/Increase in deferred tax assets (Increase)/Decrease in deferred tax liabilities Deferred income tax expense included in total income tax expense The following table provides a numerical reconciliation of income tax expense to prima facie tax payable: $ million Profit before related income tax (expense)/benefit Tax at the Australian tax rate of 30% (2015: 30%) Tax effect of amounts which are not deductible/(taxable) in calculating taxable income: Net non-deductible/non-assessable for tax Tax losses, net tax credits and temporary differences not recognised for book in prior years now recouped Over/(Under) provision in prior period Foreign tax rate differential Total income tax expense 2016 2015 (50.1) 2.3 (47.8) (23.0) (70.8) (3.8) (19.2) (23.0) (35.1) (0.6) (35.7) (20.1) (55.8) (5.2) (14.9) (20.1) 2016 2015 239.4 (71.8) 187.2 (56.2) 3.3 1.6 (66.9) 2.3 (6.2) (70.8) 2.5 3.4 (50.3) (0.6) (4.9) (55.8) ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 67 2016 2015 1.1 10.0 44.7 16.3 7.6 – 6.5 86.2 (86.2) – 73.2 20.1 25.1 118.4 (86.2) 32.2 0.7 12.0 42.7 14.7 1.1 1.5 11.3 84.0 (83.3) 0.7 57.5 17.6 22.4 97.5 (83.3) 14.2 2016 2015 14.8 (0.4) 2.1 2.2 (1.4) (1.5) (1.6) 1.6 7.2 23.0 17.2 1.3 1.3 0.2 (2.7) 3.7 0.7 5.3 (6.9) 20.1 Section 2: Income tax (continued) 2.2 Deferred tax balances Deferred income tax in the balance sheet relates to the following: $ million Deferred tax assets Trade receivable loss allowance provision Valuation of inventories Employee benefits Provisions Financial instruments at fair value Tax losses carried forward Accruals and other items Tax set off Deferred tax asset Deferred tax liabilities Property, plant and equipment Intangible assets Other items Deferred tax liabilities Tax set off Deferred tax liability Deferred income tax in the income statement relates to the following: $ million Property, plant and equipment Trade receivable loss allowance provision Intangible assets Valuation of inventories Employee benefits Provisions Financial instruments at fair value Tax losses carried forward Accruals and other items Deferred tax expense 68 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Accounting policies Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income respectively. Current Tax Current tax is the expected tax payable on taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous periods. Current tax is also adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and by the availability of unused tax losses. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred Tax Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method in which temporary differences are calculated based on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for: • taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill; • taxable differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit; and • temporary differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied when the temporary difference reverses, that is, when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the assets can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. Offsetting deferred tax balances Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset and when the deferred tax balances relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but the Group intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously. Unrecognised deferred tax assets and liabilities Deferred tax liabilities have not been recognised in respect of temporary differences arising as a result of the translation of the financial statements of the Group investments in subsidiaries. The deferred tax liability will only arise in the event of disposal of the subsidiary, and no such disposal is expected in the foreseeable future. Unremitted earnings of the Group’s international operations are considered to be reinvested indefinitely and relate to the ongoing operations. Upon distribution of any earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Group may be subject to withholding taxes payable to various foreign countries, however, such amounts are not considered to be significant. As the Group controls when the deferred tax liability will be incurred and is satisfied that it will not be incurred in the foreseeable future, the deferred tax liability has not been recognised. There are no unrecognised deferred tax assets. Key judgements and estimates The Group is subject to income taxes in Australia and foreign jurisdictions and as a result the calculation of the Group’s tax charge involves a degree of estimation and judgement in respect of certain items, including assumptions made in respect of the application of tax legislation. There are many transactions and calculations relating to the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group recognises liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on management’s best estimate of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, these differences impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determinations are made. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable profits are available to utilise those temporary differences and losses, and the tax losses continue to be available having regard to the nature and timing of their origination and compliance with the relevant tax legislation associated with their recoupment. The assumptions regarding the future realisation, and therefore the recognition of deferred tax assets, may change due to future operating performance and other factors. The assumptions made in respect of the recognised tax balances are subject to risk and uncertainty and there is a possibility that changes in circumstances or differences in opinion will alter outcomes which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognised and the amount of tax losses and timing differences not yet recognised. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 69 Section 3: Assets and liabilities IN THIS SECTION This section details the assets used to generate the Group’s trading performance and the liabilities incurred as a result. On the following pages there are notes covering working capital, other assets, non-current assets and provisions. Liabilities relating to the Group’s financing activities are set out in section 4, whilst the assets and liabilities recognised in respect of derivative instruments, used to hedge financial risks, are contained in section 5. Information pertaining to deferred tax assets and liabilities is provided in section 2. 3.1 Trade and other receivables $ million Trade receivables Less loss allowance provision Loans and other receivables(1) Total current trade and other receivables 2016 2015 466.6 (4.2) 462.4 53.4 515.8 394.9 (2.4) 392.5 35.2 427.7 (1) These amounts generally arise from transactions outside the usual operating activities of the Group. Interest may be charged at commercial rates where the terms of repayment exceed six months. Collateral is not normally obtained. Accounting policies Trade receivables and loans and other receivables are all classified as financial assets held at amortised cost. Trade receivables Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less a loss allowance provision. The carrying value of trade and other receivables, less impairment provisions, is considered to approximate fair value, due to the short-term nature of the receivables. Impairment of trade receivables The collectability of trade and other receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Individual debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off when identified. The Group recognises an impairment provision based upon anticipated lifetime losses of trade receivables. The anticipated losses are determined with reference to historical loss experience and is regularly reviewed and updated. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the income statement within ‘general and administration’ expense. Loans and other receivables Loans are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and are measured at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method and are usually interest-bearing. Credit risks related to receivables In assessing an appropriate provision for impairments of receivables, consideration is given to historical experience of bad debts, the ageing of receivables, knowledge of debtor insolvency or other credit risk and individual account assessment. Customer credit risk is managed by each business group in accordance with the procedures and controls set out in the Group’s credit risk management policy. Credit limits are established for all customers based on external and internal credit rating criteria and letters of credit or other forms of credit insurance cover are obtained where appropriate. In monitoring customer credit risk, customers are grouped according to their credit characteristics, including whether they are an individual or a legal entity, whether they are a wholesale, retail or end-user customer, their geographic location, industry and existence of previous financial difficulties. For some trade receivables the Group may also obtain security in the form of guarantees, deeds of undertaking or letters of credit which can be called upon if the counterparty is in default under the terms of the agreement. The Group does not otherwise require collateral in respect of trade and other receivables. 70 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016The following table sets out the ageing of trade receivables, according to their due date: $ million Not past due Past due 0–30 days Past due 31–120 days More than 121 days past due Loss allowance provision Gross carrying amount 2016 2015 2016 2015 – 0.5 2.0 1.7 4.2 – 0.3 0.6 1.5 2.4 333.2 94.3 35.7 3.4 466.6 265.8 95.6 31.6 1.9 394.9 The Group has recognised a net loss of $2.9 million (2015: $2.2 million) in respect of the trade receivables written off in the financial year. The loss has been included in ‘general and administration’ expense in the income statement. 3.2 Inventories $ million At cost Raw materials and stores Work in progress Finished goods Total inventory carried at cost At net realisable value Raw materials and stores Work in progress Finished goods Total inventory carried at net realisable value Total inventories Accounting policies 2016 2015 184.5 15.9 247.3 447.7 3.7 0.3 7.7 11.7 459.4 188.6 12.2 230.0 430.8 12.2 0.1 8.0 20.3 451.1 Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. Costs incurred in bringing each product to its existing location and condition are accounted for as follows: • Raw materials – purchase cost on a weighted average cost formula • Manufactured finished goods and work in progress – cost of direct material and labour and an appropriate proportion of production and variable overheads incurred in the normal course of business. Cost may also include transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of inventory. During the period, the Group recognised a net write-down of $3.9 million (2015: $1.4 million) with regard to the net realisable value of inventories which has been recognised in ‘cost of sales’ expense in the income statement.

Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which were unpaid at the end of the financial year and these amounts are unsecured. The carrying value of trade and other payables is considered to approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the payables. Trade and other payables are included in current liabilities, except for those liabilities where payment is not due within 12 months from reporting date which are classified as non-current liabilities. 3.4 Other assets $ million Current Contract incentive payments(1) Prepayments Total other current assets Non-current Contract incentive payments(1) Prepayments Other non-current assets Total other non-current assets 2016 2015 14.7 24.6 39.3 56.8 1.4 46.4 16.5 28.3 44.8 62.7 2.8 35.9 104.6 101.4 (1) Contract incentives are provided to customers to secure long-term sale agreements and are amortised over the period of the contractual arrangement. 72 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 20163.5 Property, plant and equipment The following note details the physical assets used by the Group to operate the business, generating revenues and profits.

Accounting policies Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item including borrowing costs that are related to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset. Cost may also include transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount, or recognised as a separate asset, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial year in which they are incurred. Depreciation Property, plant and equipment, excluding freehold land, is depreciated at rates based upon the expected useful lives, or in the case of leasehold improvements and certain leased plant and equipment the lease term, using the straight-line method. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation rates used for each class of asset for the current and comparative periods are as follows: • Buildings 1% – 5% • Land improvements 1% – 3% • Plant and equipment 2.5% – 25% ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 73 Section 3: Assets and liabilities (continued) 3.5 Property, plant and equipment (continued) Key judgements and estimates Depreciation is calculated by estimating the number of years the Group expects an asset to be used over. At each reporting date depreciation methods, residual values and useful lives are reassessed and adjusted if necessary. In addition, assets subject to depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset carrying amount may not be recoverable. If an asset’s value falls below its depreciated value, an additional one-off impairment charge is made against profit. Refer note 3.8 for further details. 3.6 Intangible assets The following note details the non-physical assets used by the Group to generate revenue and profits. These assets include computer software and licences, customer relationships and goodwill. The cost of these assets is the amount that the Group has paid or, where there has been a business combination, the fair value of the specific intangible assets identified. In the case of goodwill, its cost is the amount the Group has paid for acquiring a business over and above the fair value of the individual assets and liabilities acquired. The value of goodwill is ‘intangible’ value that comes from, for example, synergies available with the integration of the acquired business into the Group, a skilled and knowledgeable assembled workforce, proprietary technologies and processes, a uniquely strong market position and customer relationships. $ million Cost At 1 July 2014 Additions for the period Additions through business acquisitions Disposals during the period Other transfers Effect of movements in foreign exchange rates At 30 June 2015 Additions for the period Additions through business acquisitions Disposals during the period Effect of movements in foreign exchange rates At 30 June 2016 Accumulated amortisation and impairment At 1 July 2014 Amortisation charge Disposals during the period Effect of movements in foreign exchange rates At 30 June 2015 Amortisation charge Disposals during the period Effect of movements in foreign exchange rates At 30 June 2016 Net book value At 30 June 2015 At 30 June 2016 74 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 Other intangible assets Goodwill Computer software Other Total 213.0 – 10.1 – – 27.5 250.6 – 80.6 – 6.8 338.0 (7.9) – – – (7.9) – – – 146.9 20.7 – (2.0) 1.0 10.0 176.6 8.3 0.5 (3.1) 1.5 183.8 (120.7) (5.5) 2.0 (7.2) (131.4) (6.3) 3.1 (1.1) (7.9) (135.7) 6.6 – – – (1.0) 1.3 6.9 – – – 0.2 7.1 (5.6) – – (1.3) (6.9) – – (0.2) (7.1) 366.5 20.7 10.1 (2.0) – 38.8 434.1 8.3 81.1 (3.1) 8.5 528.9 (134.2) (5.5) 2.0 (8.5) (146.2) (6.3) 3.1 (1.3) (150.7) 242.7 330.1 45.2 48.1 – – 287.9 378.2 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Accounting policies Goodwill The goodwill recognised by the Group has arisen as a result of business combinations and represents the future economic benefits that arise from assets that are not capable of being individually identified and separately recognised. Goodwill is initially measured as the amount the Group has paid in acquiring a business over and above the fair value of the individual assets and liabilities acquired. Goodwill is not amortised but is instead tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing goodwill is allocated to cash generating units as follows. Refer to note 3.8 for further details. CGU Australasia North America $ million 2016 2015 94.2 235.9 330.1 92.5 150.2 242.7 Other intangible assets Other intangible assets include computer software, customer relationships and software licences. The cost of these assets is the amount that the Group has paid or, where there has been a business combination, their fair value at the date of acquisition. Internal spend on computer software is only capitalised within the development phase, when the asset is separate and it is probable that future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the Group. Following initial recognition, other intangible assets are carried at cost less amortisation and any impairment losses. Other intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis over their useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that they may be impaired. Refer to note 3.8 for further details on impairment. Computer software and licences are amortised over a period of between three to ten years whilst customer relationships are amortised over a period of up to 20 years. The amortisation period and method is reviewed each financial year. The Group does not hold any indefinite life other intangible assets. Key judgements and estimates The value of intangible assets, with the exception of goodwill, reduces over the number of years the Group expects to use the asset via an annual amortisation charge to the income statement. The amortisation charge is calculated by estimating the number of years the Group expects to benefit from the use of the asset. At each reporting date amortisation methods and useful lives are reassessed and adjusted if necessary. In addition, assets subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment. Where there has been a technological change or decline in business performance a review of the value of the intangible assets, including goodwill, is undertaken to ensure the assets have not fallen below their amortised value. Should an asset’s value fall below its amortised value an additional one-off impairment charge is made against profit.

Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in the income statement. Employee entitlements The provision for employee entitlements represents the obligation for annual leave, long service leave entitlements and incentives accrued by employees. Liabilities for employee benefits such as wages, salaries and other current employee entitlements represent present obligations arising from employees’ services provided to the reporting date and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates, including related on-costs, such as workers’ compensation insurance and payroll tax, and are presented in other payables. The liability for annual leave and long service leave is measured as the present value of estimated future cash outflows to be made in respect of services provided by the employee up to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and period of service. Expected future payments that are not expected to be settled within 12 months are discounted using market yields at the reporting date of high quality corporate bonds. The rates used reflect the terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. 76 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Workers’ compensation, insurance and other claims The Group self-insures for various risks including risks associated with workers’ compensation. Provisions are recognised for claims received and expected to be received in relation to incidents occurring prior to reporting date and are measured based upon historical claim rates. Estimated net future cash flows are based on the assumption that all claims will be settled and the weighted average cost of historical claims adjusted for inflation will continue to approximate future costs. Asset restoration The Group is required to restore leased premises to their original condition at the end of the respective lease term. The restoration requirements typically relate to excessive wear and tear or alterations that have been made to the lease property to accommodate the operations of the business. Where the Group has a legal or constructive obligation to restore a site on which an asset is located, either through make-good provisions included in lease agreements or decommissioning of environmental risks, the present value of the estimated costs of dismantling and removing the asset and restoring the site is recognised as a provision with a corresponding increase in the related item of property, plant and equipment. At each reporting date, the liability is remeasured in line with changes in discount rates, estimated cash flows and the timing of those cash flows. Any changes in the liability are added to or deducted from the related asset, other than the unwinding of the discount, which is recognised as a financing cost in the income statement. Restructuring The restructuring provision primarily relates to cost reduction and reorganisation activities associated with the Australasia operations. A provision for restructuring is recognised when the Group has a detailed formal restructuring plan and the restructuring has either commenced or has been publicly announced, including discussions with affected personnel, with employee-related costs recognised over the period of any required further service. Future operating costs in relation to the restructuring are not provided for. Payments falling due greater than 12 months after reporting date are discounted to present value. Key judgements and estimates A provision is recognised by the Group where an obligation exists relating to a past event, it is probable that a cash payment will be required to settle it, and the Group is not certain how much cash will be required to settle the liability. The value of that provision is based upon estimates and assumptions with regards to the amount and timing of cash flows required to settle the obligation, which are dependent on future events. The key assumptions applicable to the determination of the provisions are as follows: Employee entitlements The provision for employee entitlements is based on a number of management estimates, which include: • future increase in salaries and wages and on-cost rates • future probability of employee departures • future probability of years of service (long service leave provision) Workers’ compensation The self-insured workers’ compensation provision is based on a number of management estimates including, but not limited to: • future inflation • claim administration expenses • historical weighted average size of claims • claim development Asset restoration Asset restoration provisions require assessments to be made of lease make-good conditions and decommissioning and environmental risks. The provisions also require estimates to be made of costs to dismantle and remove equipment and to restore the site to the condition required under the terms of the lease and required by environmental laws and regulations. Restructuring Restructuring provisions require assessments to be made regarding the timing of recognition, specifically are plans sufficiently detailed, approved and communicated to support recognition at a point in time. The provisions also require estimates to be made of the cost of restructuring and the timing of these cash outflows. The judgements, estimates and assumptions used in the booking of all provisions are management’s best estimates based on current and forecast operating and market conditions. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 77 Section 3: Assets and liabilities (continued) 3.8 Impairment of non-financial assets No impairment of non-financial assets has been recognised during the year ended 30 June 2016 or 30 June 2015. In accordance with the Group’s accounting policies impairment losses recognised in prior periods were reassessed at 30 June 2016 for any indications that the loss may have decreased or may no longer exist, no such indicators were identified. Testing for impairment The Group tests property, plant and equipment, intangibles and goodwill for impairment: • where there is an indication that an asset may be impaired (which is assessed at least each reporting date); • where there is an indication that previously recognised impairment (on assets other than goodwill) have changed; and • at least annually for indefinite life intangibles and goodwill. In testing for impairment, the recoverable amount is estimated for an individual asset or, if it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount for the individual asset, the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. CGUs are the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate cash inflows that are largely independent from the cash flows of other assets or group of assets. Each CGU is no larger than an operating segment. Assets are impaired if their carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is determined as the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal or value in use. An impairment loss is recognised in the income statement if the carrying amount of an asset or a CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs). Impairment calculations In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the asset or CGU and the market’s current assessment of the time value of money. Value in use is assessed using cash flow projections for five years using data from the Group’s latest internal forecasts and is management’s best estimate of income, expenses, capital expenditure and cash flows for each CGU. Changes in selling prices and direct costs are based on past experience and management’s expectation of future changes in the markets in which the Group operates. Cash flows beyond the five year period are extrapolated using estimated growth rates which are determined with regard to the long-term performance of each CGU in their respective markets and are not expected to exceed the long-term average growth rates for the industry in which each CGU operates. The discount rate used in performing the value in use calculations reflects the Group’s weighted average cost of capital, as adjusted for specific risks relating to each geographical region in which the CGU’s operate. Reversal of impairment Where there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased, the asset is tested. The impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount of the asset and is reversed only to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, had no impairment loss been recognised. Impairments recognised for goodwill are not reversed. 78 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Goodwill impairment tests For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to cash generating units or groups of cash generating units (CGUs) according to the level at which management monitors goodwill. Goodwill is tested annually or more regularly if there are indicators of impairment. The following table presents a summary of the goodwill allocation and the key assumptions used in determining the recoverable amount of each CGU: Goodwill allocation ($ million) Pre-tax discount rate (%) Growth rate (%) Australasia CGU North America CGU 2016 94.2 10.7 2.0 2015 92.5 10.4 2.0 2016 2015 235.9 11.8 2.0 150.2 10.3 2.0 The recoverable amounts of the CGUs were based on the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the CGU (value in use). Value in use is calculated from cash flow projections for five years using data from the Group’s latest internal forecasts. The key assumptions for the value in use calculations are those regarding discount rates, growth rates and expected changes in earnings during the initial five year period. Key judgements and estimates The determination of impairment involves the use of judgements and estimates that include, but are not limited to, the cause, timing and measurement of the impairment. Management is required to make significant judgements concerning the identification of impairment indicators, such as changes in competitive positions, expectations of growth, increased cost of capital, and other factors that may indicate impairment such as a business restructuring. In addition, management is also required to make significant estimates regarding future cash flows and the determination of fair values when assessing the recoverable amount of assets (or groups of assets). Inputs into these valuations require assumptions and estimates to be made about forecast earnings before interest and tax and related future cash flows, growth rates, applicable discount rates, useful lives and residual values. The judgements, estimates and assumptions used in assessing impairment are management’s best estimates based on current and forecast market conditions. Changes in economic and operating conditions impacting these assumptions could result in changes in the recognition of impairment charges in future periods. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 79 Section 4: Capital structure and financing IN THIS SECTION This section outlines how the Group manages its capital structure and related financing including its balance sheet liquidity and access to capital markets. The Directors determine the appropriate capital structure of the Group, specifically, how much is raised from shareholders (equity) and how much is borrowed from financial institutions (debt) in order to finance the Group’s activities both now and in the future. Maintaining capital discipline and balance sheet efficiency remains important to the Group, as seen through the issuance of the US Private Placement notes during the year and other refinancing activities. Any potential courses of action, in respect of the Group’s structure, take into account the Group’s liquidity needs, flexibility to invest in the business and impact on credit ratings. The Directors consider the Group’s capital structure and dividend policy at least twice a year ahead of announcing results and do so in the context of its ability to continue as a going concern, to execute the strategy and to invest in opportunities to grow the business and enhance shareholder value. 4.1 Capital management Capital is defined as the combination of shareholders’ equity, reserves and net debt. The key objective of the Group when managing its capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that the Group can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and maintain an optimal capital and funding structure. The aim of the Group’s capital management framework is to maintain an investment grade credit profile, and the requisite financial metrics, to secure access to alternate funding sources with a spread of maturity dates and sufficient undrawn committed facility capacity; and optimise, over the long term and to the extent practicable, the weighted average cost of capital to reduce the cost of capital to the Group while maintaining financial flexibility. The Group uses a range of financial metrics to monitor the efficiency of its capital structure, including on-balance sheet gearing and leverage ratios, and ensure that its capital structure provides sufficient financial strength to allow it to secure access to debt finance at reasonable cost. At 30 June 2016, the Group’s on-balance sheet gearing and leverage ratios were 29.6% (2015: 29.6%) and 1.6 times (2015: 1.9 times), respectively. $ million Net debt Total interest-bearing liabilities Less: Cash and cash equivalents Equity and reserves Contributed equity Treasury shares Reserves Retained earnings Net Capital Note 2016 2015 4.3 4.3 4.4.1 4.4.1 4.4.2 4.4.3 695.7 (66.1) 629.6 513.1 (31.3) 136.8 879.0 674.2 (67.3) 606.9 513.8 (11.1) 127.2 812.1 1,497.6 1,442.0 2,127.2 2,048.9 In order to optimise the capital structure, the Group may: • adjust the amount of ordinary dividends paid to shareholders • maintain a dividend investment plan • raise or return capital to shareholders; and • repay debt or raise debt for working capital and capital expenditure requirements, or to facilitate acquisitions in line with the strategic objectives and operating plans of the Group. 80 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Cents per share Total $ million 4.0 4.5 3.0 3.5 48.0 53.7 101.7 36.2 42.2 78.4 5.0 60.3 4.0 48.3 4.2 Dividends Declared and paid during the period For the year ended 30 June 2016 Final dividend for 2015 (30% franked) Interim dividend for 2016 (30% franked) For the year ended 30 June 2015 Final dividend for 2014 (unfranked) Interim dividend for 2015 (unfranked) Proposed and unrecognised at period end(1) For the year ended 30 June 2016 Final dividend for 2016 (30% franked) For the year ended 30 June 2015 Final dividend for 2015 (30% franked) Shareholder distributions — (1) Estimated final dividend payable, subject to variations in the number of shares up to record date. cents per share Shareholder distributions – cents per share 5.0c 30% franked 4.0c 30% franked 3.0c unfranked 3.0c unfranked 3.5c unfranked 4.5c 30% franked FY14 FY15 FY16 Dividend reinvestment plan Final dividend (FY16: proposed) Interim dividend The Group operates a dividend reinvestment plan which allows eligible shareholders to elect to invest dividends in ordinary shares. All holders of Orora Limited ordinary shares with Australian or New Zealand addresses registered with the share registry are eligible to participate in the plan. The allocation price for shares is based on the average of the daily volume weighted average price of Orora Limited ordinary shares sold on the Australian Securities Exchange, calculated with reference to a period of not less than ten consecutive trading days as determined by the Directors. Franking Account Franking credits are available to shareholders of the Company at the 30.0% (2015: 30.0%) corporate tax rate. Both the interim and final dividend for 2016 are 30.0% franked (2015: final dividend 30.0% franked, interim dividend unfranked). The balance of the franking credits available as at 30 June 2016 is $5.5 million (2015: $0.4 million); it is estimated that this will reduce by $7.8 million (2015: $6.2 million) after payment of the estimated final dividend on 17 October 2016. The Company is of the opinion that sufficient franking credits will arise from tax instalments expected to be paid in the year ending 30 June 2017. Conduit Foreign Income Account For Australian tax purposes non-resident shareholder dividends will not be subject to Australian withholding tax to the extent that they are franked or sourced from the Company’s Conduit Foreign Income Account. For the 2016 dividends, 70.0% of the dividend is sourced from the Company’s Conduit Foreign Income account (2015: final dividend 70.0%, interim dividend 100.0%). As a result 100.0% of the 2016 dividends paid to a non-resident will not be subject to Australian withholding tax. The balance of the Conduit Foreign Income Account as at 30 June 2016 is $100.9 million (2015: $116.9 million). It is estimated that this will reduce by $42.2 million (2015: $33.8 million) after payment of the estimated final dividend on 17 October 2016. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 81 Section 4: Capital structure and financing (continued) 4.3 Net debt During the period the Group successfully completed a US Private Placement of notes issued by its wholly-owned US subsidiary, raising USD250.0 million, of which USD100.0 million matures in July 2023 and USD150.0 million in July 2025. In addition to the above, the following facilities were also secured: • a USD200.0 million five-year USD revolving facility, through a syndicate of domestic and international financial institutions, maturing in April 2021, and • two bilateral agreements for $50.0 million, each with separate domestic institutions, maturing in April 2018. As at 30 June 2016, the Group also had access to a $400.0 million revolving multicurrency facility through a syndicate of domestic and international financial institutions maturing in December 2019. This facility is unsecured and can be extended. During both the current and comparative reporting period, Orora Limited has complied with the financial covenants of its borrowing facilities. $ million Cash on hand and at bank Total cash and cash equivalents Bank loans due after one year US Private Placement due after one year Total debt Net debt Accounting policies 2016 66.1 66.1 361.9 333.8 695.7 629.6 2015 67.3 67.3 674.2 – 674.2 606.9 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include, cash at bank and on hand and short-term money market investments with an original maturity of three months or less and are classified as financial assets held at amortised cost. Cash at bank earns interest at floating rates based on daily bank deposits. Short-term deposits are made for varying periods, depending on the immediate cash requirements of the Group, and earn interest at the respective short-term deposit rates. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents is considered to approximate fair value due to the assets’ liquid nature. Bank loans All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest-bearing liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss. Interest-bearing liabilities are classified as current liabilities, except for those liabilities where the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period, which are classified as non-current liabilities. The US Private Placement notes have a carrying value of $333.8 million, while the fair value of the notes is $370.5 million. For all other borrowings, the fair values are not materially different to their carrying amount since the interest payable on those borrowings is either close to current market rates or the borrowings are of a short-term nature. 82 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 20164.3.1 Interest-bearing liabilities Maturity profile of drawn debt by facility The Group’s interest-bearing liabilities represent borrowings from financial institutions.

The Company does not have authorised capital or par value in respect of its issued shares. All issued shares are fully paid; all shares rank equally with regard to the Company’s residual assets. Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends, as declared from time to time, and are entitled to one vote per share at meetings of the Company. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or the exercise of options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit effects.

When the treasury shares are subsequently sold or reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable costs and the related income tax effects, is recognised as an increase in equity, and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is presented in retained earnings.

Accounting policies Cash flow hedge reserve The cash flow hedge reserve comprises the effective portion of the cumulative net change in the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments related to hedged transactions that have not yet occurred and the cumulative change in fair value arising from the time value of options related to future forecast transactions. Refer to note 5.4 for more information on hedging instruments. Share-based payment reserve The share-based payment reserve is used to recognise the fair value of options and rights recognised as an expense. The Company provides benefits to employees of the Group in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for options or rights over shares. Refer to note 7.1 for further details of the Group’s share-based payment plans. The fair value of options and rights granted is recognised as an employee benefit expense in the income statement with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments reserve in equity and is spread over the vesting period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the option or right. Upon exercise of the options or rights, the balance of the share-based payments reserve, relating to the option or right, is transferred to share capital. Demerger reserve The demerger reserve represents the difference between the consideration paid by Orora under an internal corporate restructure and the assets and liabilities acquired, which were recognised at their carrying value under a common control transaction. Exchange fluctuation reserve For controlled entities with a functional currency, that is not Australian dollars, their assets and liabilities are translated at the closing exchange rate at reporting date while income and expenses are translated at year-to-date average exchange rates. On consolidation all exchange differences arising from translation are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the exchange fluctuation reserve. When a foreign operation is disposed of, the amount within the reserve related to that entity is transferred to the income statement as an adjustment to the profit or loss on disposal. 4.4.3 Retained earnings Retained earnings comprises profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company and other items recognised directly in equity as presented on the statement of changes in equity. $ million Retained earnings at the beginning of the period Net profit attributable to the owners of Orora Limited Ordinary dividends: – Interim paid (refer note 4.2)(1) – Final paid (refer note 4.2)(2) Retained earnings at the end of the period (1) 2016 Interim dividend paid on 6 April 2016 (2015: 2015 Interim dividend paid on 9 April 2015) (2) 2015 Final dividend paid on 13 October 2015 (2015: 2014 Final dividend paid on 8 October 2014) 84 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 2016 2015 812.1 168.6 980.7 (53.7) (48.0) (101.7) 759.1 131.4 890.5 (42.2) (36.2) (78.4) 879.0 812.1 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Section 5: Financial risk management IN THIS SECTION The following section outlines how the Group manages the financial risks it is exposed to associated with holding financial instruments that arise from the Group’s need to access financing (bank loans and overdrafts and unsecured notes), from the Group’s operational activities (cash, trade receivables and payables) and instruments held as part of the Group’s risk management activities (derivate financial instruments). Financial risk management is carried out by Orora Group Treasury under policies that have been approved by the Board for managing each of the below risks including principles and procedures with respect to risk tolerance, delegated levels of authority on the type and use of derivative financial instruments and the reporting of these exposures. The treasury function reports regularly to the Audit & Compliance Committee and treasury procedures are subject to periodic reviews. In accordance with Board-approved policies the Group typically uses derivative financial instruments to hedge underlying exposures arising from the Group’s operational activities relating to; changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign currency commercial transactions (transaction risk), translation of balance sheet items of foreign subsidiaries (translation risk), exposure to changes in commodity prices, changes in interest rates on net borrowings and changes in the Company’s share price. The Group’s overall financial risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance as set out in the table below: Risk Exposure Management Market risks • Foreign exchange risk The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk because of its international operations. These risks relate to future commercial transactions, financial assets and liabilities not denominated in A$ and net investments in foreign operations. • Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to interest rate risk in respect of short and long-term borrowings where interest is charged at variable rates. • Commodity price risk The Group is exposed to changes in commodity prices in respect of the purchase of aluminium raw materials. Where possible loans are drawn in foreign currency by foreign entities to create a natural hedge of foreign currency assets and liabilities. Where this is not possible the Group’s policy is to hedge contractual commitments denominated in a foreign currency by entering into forward exchange contracts. Refer notes 5.1.1 and 5.4. The Group mitigates interest rate risk primarily by entering into fixed rate borrowing arrangements. Where necessary the Group hedges interest rate risk using derivative instruments – e.g. interest rate swaps. Refer notes 5.1.2 and 5.4. Where possible, the Group mitigates raw material commodity price risk by contractually passing rise and fall adjustments through to customers. Refer notes 5.1.3 and 5.4. • Employee share plan risk Credit risk The Group’s employee share plans require the delivery of shares to employees in the future when rights vest or options are exercised. The Group currently acquires shares on market to deliver these shares exposing the Group to cash flow risk – i.e. as the share price increases it costs more to acquire the shares on market. The Group has established the Orora Employee Share Trust, which manages and administers the Group’s responsibilities under the employee share plans through acquiring, holding and transferring shares or rights to shares in the Company to participating employees. Refer note 5.1.4. The Group is exposed to credit risk from financial instrument contracts and trade and other receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date is the carrying amount, net of any provision for impairment, of each financial asset in the balance sheet. The Group manages credit risk through a robust system of counterparty approval, granting and renewal of credit limits, regular monitoring of exposures against such credit limits and assessing the overall financial stability and competitive strength of the counterparty on an ongoing basis. Refer to notes 5.2 and 3.1 for credit risk exposures relating to trade and other receivables. The Group only enters into financial instrument contracts with high credit quality financial institutions with a minimum long-term credit rating of A- or better by Standard & Poor’s. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 85 Section 5: Financial risk management (continued) Risk Exposure Management Liquidity and funding risk The Group is exposed to liquidity and funding risk from operations and from external borrowings, where the risk is that the Group may not be able to refinance debt obligations or meet other cash outflow obligations when required. The Group mitigates funding and liquidity risks by ensuring that: • a sufficient range of funds are available to meet working capital and investment objectives; • adequate flexibility within the funding structure is maintained through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans and unsecured notes; • through regular monitoring of rolling forecast of cash inflows and outflows, the cost of funding is minimised and the return on any surplus funds is maximised through efficient cash management; • there is a focus on improving operational cash flow and maintain a strong balance sheet. Refer note 5.3. 5.1 Market risks 5.1.1 Foreign exchange risk The Group operates internationally and is therefore exposed to currency risk arising from movements in foreign currency rates, primarily with respect to the US dollar and NZ dollar. The foreign exchange risk arises from: • recognised monetary assets and liabilities held in a non-functional currency and net investments in foreign operations (translation risk); and • differences in the dates foreign currency commercial transactions are entered into and the date they are settled (transaction risk). Translation risk To limit translation risk exposure, the Group’s borrowings are generally denominated in currencies that match the cash flows generated by the underlying operations of the Group, which are primarily Australian and US dollars. Interest payable on those borrowings is denominated in the currency of the borrowing. In respect of the US operations, this provides a natural economic hedge without requiring the entry into derivatives. Exposure The summary quantitative data about the Group’s exposure to translation currency risk, as reported to the management of the Group, is as follows: $ million Funds employed Net debt Gearing Transaction risk 2016 2015 USD NZD USD NZD 434.8 (394.6) 160.5 28.6 304.0 (289.3) 90.8% (17.8%) 95.2% 178.0 10.2 (5.7%) To manage foreign currency transaction risk, the Group’s policy is to hedge material foreign currency denominated expenditure at the time of commitment and to hedge a proportion of foreign currency denominated forecasted exposures (mainly relating to export sales and the purchase of inventory) on a rolling 18 month basis, using either a natural hedge where one exists, or through the use of forward foreign exchange contracts or foreign currency options taken out for up to two years from the forecast date. Sensitivity The following sensitivity illustrates how a reasonably possible change in the US dollar and NZ dollar would impact the fair value of the derivative financial instruments (refer note 5.4) held for future commercial transactions as at 30 June 2016: • if the Australian dollar had weakened by 10% against the US dollar with all other variables held constant, equity would have been $8.2 million higher (2015: $3.3 million higher). • if the Australian dollar had weakened by 10% against the NZ dollar with all other variables held constant, equity would have been $15.3 million lower (2015: $10.1 million lower). 86 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Amounts recognised in profit or loss and other comprehensive income During the year, the Group recognised a foreign currency gain of $3.4 million (2015: loss $3.6 million) and a loss of $1.7 million (2015: gain $1.0 million) relating to foreign currency derivatives, that did not qualify as hedges, within general and administrative expenses in the income statement. In addition, a loss of $13.7 million (2015: $3.3 million loss) relating to cash flow hedges and a $13.5 million gain (2015: $16.3 million gain) on the translation of foreign operations was recognised in other comprehensive income, whilst a $2.6 million gain (2015: $2.9 million loss) relating to cash flow hedges was transferred from equity to operating profit. A loss relating to hedge ineffectiveness on interest rate swaps contracts of $0.9 million (2015: nil) was recognised in finance costs. 5.1.2 Interest rate risk The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. The Group’s Treasury risk management policy is to maintain an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings, monitoring global interest rates and, where appropriate, hedging floating interest rate exposures or borrowings at fixed interest rates through the use of interest rate swaps and forward interest rate contracts. The Group’s policy is to hold up to 85.0% fixed-rate debt. At 30 June 2016 approximately 83.0% (2015: 45.0%) of the Group’s debt is fixed rate. Exposure The Group had the following variable-rate borrowings and interest rate swap contracts outstanding at 30 June: 2016 Bank loans Interest rate swaps (notional principal amount) Net exposure to cash flow interest rate risk 2015 Bank loans Interest rate swaps (notional principal amount) Net exposure to cash flow interest rate risk Weighted average interest rate Balance $ million 2.8% 3.5% 2.4% 3.0% 361.9 250.0 111.9 674.2 300.0 374.2 All of the Group’s interest rate swaps are predominantly classified as cash flow hedges, so any movement in the fair value is recognised directly in equity. The amounts accumulated in equity are transferred to the income statement in the period in which the hedged item affects profit or loss. During the period a $0.4 million loss (2015: $8.9 million loss) was recognised directly in equity in relation to interest rate swaps. Sensitivity At 30 June 2016, if Australian and US interest rates had increased by 1.0%, post-tax profit for the year would have been $0.8 million lower (2015: $3.8 million lower), net of derivatives. If Australian dollar interest rates had decreased by 1.0%, post-tax profit for the year would have been $0.1 million higher (2015: $0.5 million higher), net of derivatives. US dollar debts have been excluded from the sensitivity for interest rate decreases as rates are already below 1.0%. 5.1.3 Commodity price risk The Group is exposed to commodity price risk arising from the purchase of aluminium. In managing commodity price risk, the Group is able to pass on the price risk contractually to customers through rise and fall adjustments. In the case of aluminium, some hedging is undertaken using fixed price swaps on behalf of certain customers. Hedging undertaken is upon customer instruction and all related benefits and costs are passed through onto the customer on maturity of the transaction. The movements in commodity hedges are recognised in equity and the cumulative amount of the hedge is recognised in the income statement when the forecast transaction is realised. There is no impact on profit as a result of movements in commodity prices where hedges have been put in place, as the Group passes the price risk contractually through to customers. As the Group ultimately passes on the movement risk associated with commodity prices to customers, no sensitivity has been performed. 5.1.4 Employee Share Plan risk The Group is exposed to movements in the value of ordinary shares of the Company in respect of the obligations under the Group’s Employee Share Plans (refer note 7.1). To mitigate this risk the Group has established the Orora Employee Share Trust (the Trust) to manage and administer the Group’s responsibilities under the Employee Share Plans through the acquiring, holding and transferring of shares, or rights to shares, in the Company to participating employees. As at 30 June 2016, the Trust held 15,179,750 treasury shares in the Company (2015: 6,460,678) and 1,199,190 allocated shares in respect of the CEO Grant (2015: 932,132). Refer to note 6.3 for further details. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 87 Section 5: Financial risk management (continued) 5.2 Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. It arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers, cash and cash equivalents and in-the-money derivatives. There is also credit risk relating to the Group’s own credit rating as this impacts the availability and cost of future finance. The Group manages credit risk through the maintenance of procedures such as the utilisation of systems of approval, granting and renewal of credit limits, regular monitoring of exposures against such credit limits and assessing the overall financial stability and competitive strength of the counterparty on an ongoing basis. Trade and other receivables Credit risk exposures related to trade and other receivables are discussed in note 3.1. Cash and cash equivalents and derivatives Credit risk related to balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by Orora Group Treasury in accordance with Group policy. The policy only allows financial derivative instruments to be entered into with high credit quality financial institutions with a minimum long-term credit rating of A- or better by Standard & Poor’s. In addition, the Board has approved the use of these financial institutions, and specific internal guidelines have been established with regards to limits, dealing and settlement procedures. The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at the end of the reporting period, excluding the value of any security held, is equivalent to the carrying amount and classification of the financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the statement of financial position. Guarantees The Group’s policy is to provide financial guarantees only to certain parties securing the liabilities of subsidiaries, and are only provided in exceptional circumstances (refer note 7.3). 5.3 Liquidity risk and funding risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s financing policy is to fund itself for the long term by using debt instruments with a range of maturities and to ensure access to appropriate short-term facilities. Orora Group Treasury aims to maintain flexibility within the funding structure through the use of bank overdrafts and bank loans. Management manages liquidity risk through maintaining minimum undrawn committed liquidity of at least $175.0 million that can be drawn upon at short notice and regularly monitoring rolling forecasts of cash inflows and outflows in relation to the Group’s activities. This monitoring includes financial ratios to assess possible future credit ratings and headroom and takes into account the accessibility of cash and cash equivalents. Financing arrangements At 30 June 2016, the Group had access to: • a $400.0 million revolving multicurrency facility through a syndicate of domestic and international financial institutions maturing in December 2019. This facility is unsecured and can be extended • US Private Placement of notes USD250.0 million, of which USD100.0 million matures in July 2023 and USD150.0 million which matures in July 2025 • a USD200.0 million five-year USD revolving facility, through a syndicate of domestic and international financial institutions, maturing in April 2021 • two bilateral agreements for $50.0 million each with separate domestic institutions, maturing in April 2018. 88 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016The committed and uncommitted standby arrangements and unused facilities of the Group are set out below: $ million Committed Uncommitted Total Committed Uncommitted Total 2016 2015 Financing facilities available: Bank overdrafts US Private Placement Loan facilities and term debt Facilities utilised: Bank overdrafts US Private Placement Loan facilities and term debt Facilities not utilised: Bank overdrafts US Private Placement Loan facilities and term debt – 335.7 768.5 1,104.2 – 335.7 364.0 699.7 – – 404.5 404.5 6.3 – 83.7 90.0 – – – – 6.3 – 83.7 90.0 6.3 335.7 852.2 1,194.2 – – 1,000.0 1,000.0 – 335.7 364.0 699.7 6.3 – 488.2 494.5 – – 676.6 676.6 – – 323.4 323.4 6.1 – 82.4 88.5 – – – – 6.1 – 82.4 88.5 6.1 – 1,082.4 1,088.5 – – 676.6 676.6 6.1 – 405.8 411.9 Maturity of financial liabilities The table below analyses the Group’s financial liabilities, including derivatives, into relevant maturity groupings based on the period remaining until the contractual maturity date.

A derivative is a type of financial instrument typically used to manage risk. A derivative’s value changes over time in response to underlying variables, such as exchange rates or interest rates, and is entered into for a fixed period of time. A hedge is where a derivative is used to manage exposure in an underlying variable. The Group is exposed to certain market risks which include foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. In accordance with Board-approved policies, the Group manages these risks by using derivative financial instruments to hedge the underlying exposures. Why do we need them? The key market risks facing the Group: • Foreign currency risk arises from: – translation risk – the risk of adverse currency fluctuations in the translation of foreign currency profits, assets and liabilities (balance sheet risk) and non-functional currency monetary assets and liabilities (income statement risk); and – transaction risk – the risk that currency fluctuations will have a negative effect on the value of the Group’s future cash flows due to changes in foreign currency between the date a commercial transaction is entered into and the date at which the transaction is settled • Interest rate risk arises from fluctuations in variable market interest rates impacting the fair value or future cash flows on long-term borrowings • Commodity price risk arises from significant changes in the price of key raw material inputs, in particular the purchase of aluminium. How do we use them? The Group employs the following derivative financial instruments when managing its foreign currency and interest rate risk: • Forward exchange contracts and options are derivative instruments used to hedge transaction risk so they enable the sale or purchase of foreign currency at a known fixed rate on an agreed future date. The Group holds forward exchange contracts and options denominated in US dollar, Euro and NZ dollar to hedge highly probable forecast sale and purchase transactions (cash flow hedges); • Interest rate swaps are derivative instruments that exchange a fixed rate of interest for a floating rate, or vice versa, or one type of floating rate for another, and are used to manage interest rate risk. These derivatives are entered into to optimise the Group’s exposure to fixed and floating interest rates arising from borrowings. These hedges incorporate cash flow hedges, which fix future interest payments, and fair value hedges, which reduce the Group’s exposure to changes in the value of its assets and liabilities arising from interest rate movements. In respect of managing commodity price risk, the Group uses forward commodity contracts. Forward commodity contracts are derivatives instruments used to hedge price risk so they enable the purchase of aluminium raw materials at a known fixed rate on an agreed future date. On behalf of customers, aluminium hedging is undertaken using fixed price swaps. The Group passes on the price risk of commodities contractually through to customers, including any benefits and costs relating to swaps upon their maturity (fair value hedge). Analysis of the derivatives used by the Group to hedge its exposure and the various methods used to calculate their respective fair values are detailed in this section. 90 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Derivative instruments The following table sets out the fair value of derivative financial instruments analysed by type of contract. $ million Notional item Level 2 fair value hierarchy 2016 Weighted average Asset Liability Notional item 2015 Weighted average Asset Liability Forward exchange contracts Cash flow hedges AUD/USD AUD/NZD AUD/EUR NZD/USD NZD/EUR NZD/AUD Fair value hedges AUD/USD AUD/NZD Interest rate swap contracts Cash flow hedge Fair value hedge Total derivatives in an asset/(liability) position Current asset/(liability) Non-current asset/(liability) USD79.3 NZD(6.7) EUR16.7 USD9.2 EUR7.6 AUD100.8 0.7213 1.0849 0.6466 0.6712 0.6038 1.1013 USD40.0 NZD25.0 0.7378 1.0472 AUD300.0 floating to fixed USD50.0 floating to fixed USD47.3 NZD(7.8) EUR12.4 USD11.1 EUR2.7 AUD88.0 0.7771 1.0697 0.6785 0.7276 0.6264 1.0871 USD44.0 NZD25.0 0.7780 1.1210 AUD300.0 floating to fixed USD50.0 floating to fixed 0.4 0.2 0.1 – – 0.1 – – – – 0.8 0.7 0.1 (3.2) (0.4) (1.3) (0.7) (0.5) (5.0) (0.5) – (12.4) (2.0) (26.0) (13.7) (12.3) 3.0 0.6 0.1 1.2 0.2 3.6 – – – – 8.7 7.5 1.2 (0.8) (0.1) (0.3) – (0.1) (0.1) – – (9.9) (1.0) (12.3) (3.9) (8.4) All derivative financial instruments utilised by the Group are hedges of highly probable forecast transaction with a hedge ratio of 1:1, therefore the change in the hedging instrument is equal to the change in the value of the underlying hedged item. Derivative financial instruments are only undertaken if they relate to underlying exposures; the Group does not use derivatives to speculate. As at 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2015, the Group only held derivative financial instruments (hedging instruments) whose fair values were measured in accordance with level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between levels 1 and 2 for recurring fair value measurements during the year. The Group does not hold any level 3 derivative financial instruments. Accounting policies Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value on the date the instrument is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value or ‘marked to market’ at each reporting date. The gain or loss on remeasurement is recognised immediately in the income statement unless the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument in which case the remeasurement is recognised in equity. Hedge accounting At the inception of the hedge relationship, the Group formally designates the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, as to whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items. Where option contracts are used to hedge forecast transactions, only the intrinsic value of the option contract is designated as the hedging instrument. For the purposes of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as: • fair value hedges – hedges of the exposure to fair value changes in recognised assets or liabilities or firm commitments; • cash flow hedges – hedges of the exposure to variability in cash flows attributable to a recognised asset or liability or highly probable forecast transaction; or • net investment hedges – hedges of net investments in foreign operations. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 91 Section 5: Financial risk management (continued) 5.4 Hedging instruments (continued) Hedge accounting (continued) Hedges that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as follows: Fair value hedge Cash flow hedge Net investment hedge A derivative or financial instrument designated as hedging the change in fair value of a recognised asset or liability or firm commitment. A derivative or financial instrument hedging the exposure to variability in cash flow attributable to a particular risk associated with an asset, liability or forecasted transaction. Financial instruments hedging changes in foreign currency when the net assets of a foreign operation are translated from their functional currency into Australian dollars. What is it? Movement in fair value Changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognised in the income statement, together with the changes in fair value of the hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk. The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of interest rate swaps, hedging fixed rate borrowings, is recognised in the income statement within ‘finance costs’, together with changes in the fair value of the hedged fixed rate borrowings attributable to interest rate risk. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised in the income statement within ‘other income’ or ‘general and administration expenses’. The effective part of any gain or loss on the derivative financial instrument is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity in the hedging reserve. The change in the fair value that is identified as ineffective is recognised immediately in the income statement within ‘other income’ or ‘general and administration expenses’. On consolidation, foreign currency differences arising on the translation of financial assets and liabilities designated as net investment hedges of a foreign operation are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the foreign exchange reserve, to the extent that the hedge is effective. Any ineffective portion is recognised in the income statement. Amounts accumulated in equity are transferred to the income statement in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss (for instance, when the forecast sale that is hedged takes place). However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (for example, inventory), the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the measurement of the initial cost or carrying amount of the asset. Where options are used, changes in the fair value of the option are recognised in other comprehensive income depending on whether it is designated as the hedging instrument in its entirety, or its intrinsic value only. If only the intrinsic value is designated, the option’s time value that matches the terms of the hedged item is recognised in equity and released to profit or loss over the term of the hedged item. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the income statement. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the income statement. Upon disposal of the foreign operation, which is subject to the net investment hedge, the cumulative amount that has been recognised in equity in relation to the hedged net investment is transferred to the income statement and recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal. Discontinuation of hedge accounting If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item, for which the effective interest method is used, is amortised to the income statement over the period to maturity using a recalculated effective interest rate. 92 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Rebalancing If the hedging ratio for risk management purposes is no longer optimal but the risk management objective remains unchanged and the hedge continues to qualify for hedge accounting, the hedge relationship will be rebalanced by adjusting either the volume of the hedging instrument or the volume of the hedged item so that the hedge ratio aligns with the ratio used for risk management purposes. Any hedge ineffectiveness is calculated and accounted for in profit or loss at the time of the hedge relationship rebalancing. Key judgements and estimates The Orora Group Treasury team performs the financial instrument valuations and reports directly to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the Audit & Compliance Committee. Discussions of valuation processes and results are held with the CFO and Orora Group Treasury at least once every six months, in line with the Group’s half-yearly reporting requirements. Significant valuation issues are reported to the Audit & Compliance Committee. When measuring the fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into three levels as prescribed under accounting standards, with each of these levels indicating the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value. The levels in the fair value hierarchy are: Level 1: fair value identified from quoted price traded in an active market for an identical asset or liability at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for assets is the last bid price. Level 2: fair value determined using valuation techniques that maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. All significant inputs used in the valuation method are observable. Level 3: one or more of the significant inputs in determining fair value for the asset or liability is not based on observable market data (unobservable input). Determining fair value The specific valuation techniques used to value derivative financial instruments are as follows: • the fair value of forward exchange contracts and currency options is determined by using the difference between the contract exchange rate and the quoted exchange rate at the reporting date; • the fair value of interest rate swaps calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows – i.e. the amounts that the Group would receive or pay to terminate the swap at the reporting date, based on observable yield curves; • the fair value of commodity forward contracts is determined by using the difference between the contract commodity price and the quoted price at the reporting date.

Refer below for details of acquisitions. 6.2 Acquisition of controlled entities 6.2.1 IntegraColor LLC On 1 March 2016, the Group acquired 100% of the issued share capital of IntegraColor LLC (IntegraColor), a provider of point-of-purchase retail display solutions and other visual communication services for customers across consumer (food and beverage), healthcare/education and horticulture industries. The operations are based in Dallas, Texas and service customers across North America. The results of IntegraColor are included in the North America segment from the date of acquisition. The accounting for the IntegraColor acquisition has been provisionally determined as at 30 June 2016 as the post-close adjustment process remains in progress. Management is continuing to assess the fair value of the opening balance sheet which may result in adjustments to the fair value attributable to the net assets acquired as reported below. Purchase consideration $ million Purchase consideration Initial cash consideration paid Cash paid for completion adjustments Deferred consideration Total purchase consideration Deferred consideration 91.2 6.9 9.2 107.3 The deferred consideration attracts interest of 1.5% per annum and is payable in two instalments. The first instalment of $4.6 million is payable March 2017, and the second instalment of $4.6 million is payable in September 2017. 94 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016 Fair value of net assets acquired and goodwill $ million Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Inventories Property, plant and equipment Intangible assets Trade and other payables Fair value of net identifiable assets acquired Add goodwill Fair value of net assets acquired Goodwill Fair value 2.8 25.2 12.1 15.0 0.5 (12.9) 42.7 64.6 107.3 The goodwill is mainly attributable to the synergies expected to be achieved from integrating the company into the Group’s existing North American business and the skills and talent of IntegraColor’s workforce. Acquired receivables The fair value of acquired trade receivables is $22.7 million. The gross contractual amount for trade receivables due is $22.8 million, of which $0.1 million is expected to be uncollectable. Purchase consideration and acquisition-related costs $ million Cash flows on acquisition Cash consideration paid Less: cash acquired Outflow of cash 98.1 (2.8) 95.3 Acquisition-related costs of $1.4 million were recognised in general and administrative expenses in the income statement and in operating cash flows in the cash flow statement. 6.2.2 Jakait On 1 September 2015 the Group acquired the assets and business of Jakait, a supplier of packaging, logistics and label products to the greenhouse produce sector based in Ontario, Canada. The initial consideration was CAD16.5 million ($17.7 million) with an additional returns-based consideration of up to CAD5.5 million ($5.9 million), payable over the next five years and resulted in the recognition of $15.7 million goodwill. The results of the Jakait operations are included in the North America segment from the date of acquisition. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 95 Section 6: Group Structure (continued) 6.3 Orora Employee Share Trust The Group holds shares in itself as a result of shares purchased by the Orora Employee Share Trust (the Trust). The Trust was established to manage and administer the Company’s responsibilities under the Group’s Employee Share Plans (refer note 7.1) through the acquiring, holding and transferring of shares, or rights to shares, in the Company to participating employees. In respect of these transactions, at any point in time the Trust may hold ‘allocated’ and ‘unallocated’ shares. Allocated shares Allocated shares represent those shares that have been purchased and awarded to employees under the CEO Grant (refer note 7.1). Shares granted to an employee under the CEO Grant are restricted in that the employee is unable to dispose of the shares for a period of up to five years (or as otherwise determined by the Board). The Trust holds these shares on behalf of the employee until the restriction period is lifted at which time the Trust releases the shares to the employee. Allocated shares are not identified or accounted for as treasury shares. Where the Orora Employee Share Trust purchases equity instruments in the Company, as a result of managing the Company’s responsibilities under the Group’s CEO Grant Employee Share Plan award, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable costs, is deducted from equity, net of any related income tax effects. Unallocated shares Unallocated shares represent those shares that have been purchased by the Trustee on-market to satisfy the potential future vesting of awards granted under the Group’s Employee Shares Plans, other than the CEO Grant. As the shares are unallocated they are identified and accounted for as treasury shares (Treasury Shares) refer note 4.4.1. Accounting policies As at 30 June 2016, the Trust held 15,179,750 Treasury Shares (unallocated shares) in the Company (2015: 6,460,678) and 1,199,190 allocated shares in respect of the CEO Grant (2015: 932,132). Transactions with the Group-sponsored Trust are included in these financial statements. In particular, the Trust’s purchases of shares in Orora Limited are debited directly to equity. The shares are held in the Trust until such time as they may be transferred to participants of the various Group share schemes. In accordance with the Trust Deed, the Trustees have the power to exercise all voting rights in relation to any investment (including shares) held within the Trust. Subsequent to the end of the current reporting period, on 15 August 2016 the Board authorised management to issue a request to the Trustee to waive all right and entitlement to be paid the final FY16 dividend in respect of Treasury Shares held by the Trust. As a result, assuming the Trustee grants the request, the Treasury Shares will not receive a dividend payment in respect of the final FY16 dividend. 96 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Section 7: Other IN THIS SECTION This section includes additional financial information that is required by the accounting standards and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) including details about the Group’s employee reward and recognition programs. 7.1 Share-based compensation The Group provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Group in the form of share-based incentives. The Orora employee incentive plans have been established to ensure employees are motivated and incentivised to develop and successfully execute against both short and long-term strategies that grow the business and generate shareholder returns. The plans provide an appropriate level and mix of short and long-term incentives to appropriately recognise and reward employees creating a high performance culture and Orora’s ability to attract and retain talent. Orora’s remuneration strategy is competitive in the relevant markets to support the attraction and retention of talent. The following information provides details of Orora’s employee incentive plans. During the period, the Group recognised a share-based payment expense of $8.6 million (2015: $5.5 million). Employee expenses and employee provisions are shown in notes 1.4 and 3.7 respectively. This note should be read in conjunction with the Remuneration Report, as set out in the Directors’ Report, which contains detailed information regarding the setting of remuneration for Key Management Personnel.

The number of shares issued is at the discretion of the Board. The restrictions on these shares do not allow the employee to dispose of the shares within the vesting/restriction period. The shares subject to the CEO Grant carry full dividend entitlements and voting rights. Under the long term incentive plan, share options or performance rights over ordinary shares in the Company, or performance shares, may be issued to employees. The exact terms and conditions of each award are determined by the Directors of the Company at the time of grant. Give the employee the right to acquire a share at a future point in time upon meeting specified vesting conditions, described below, and require payment of an exercise price. The share options are granted at no consideration and carry no dividend entitlement or voting rights until they vest and are exercised to ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. Give the employee the right to receive a share at a future point in time upon meeting specified vesting conditions, as described below. No exercise price is payable. The rights are granted at no consideration and carry no dividend entitlement or voting rights until they vest and convert to ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. Vesting conditions Subject to alignment of performance with Orora’s Values as assessed by the Board and the employee remaining in employment of the Group at the vesting date. Subject to meeting an Earnings per Share (EPS) hurdle, the satisfaction of a Return on Average Funds Employed (RoAFE) gateway test, and the employee remaining in employment of the Group at the vesting date. Two-thirds are subject to meeting a relative Total Shareholder Return test; the remaining one-third is subject to meeting an EPS hurdle and the satisfaction of a RoAFE gateway test. Vesting of the rights is subject to the employee remaining in employment of the Group at vesting date. Provides an additional short-term incentive opportunity to selected employees, in the form of rights to ordinary shares. The number of rights that are allocated to each eligible employee is based on: • 33.3% of the value of the cash bonus payable under the Short Term Incentive Plan, following the end of the performance period • the volume weighted average price of Orora Limited ordinary shares for the five trading days up to and including 30 June, being the end of the performance period; and • where cash bonuses are determined in currencies other than Australian dollars, the average foreign exchange rate for the same five-day period. Remain in employment of the Group at vesting date. 98 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Retention/Share Payment Plan Long-term incentives Short-term incentive CEO Grant Share Options Performance Rights and Performance Shares Up to 5 years 4 years 4 years Deferred Equity 2 years Restriction lifted upon vesting Vested share options will remain exercisable until the expiry date. On expiry, any vested but unexercised share options will lapse. Shares are issued upon vesting. Shares issued upon vesting. Unvested awards are forfeited if the employee voluntarily ceases employment or is dismissed for cause or poor performance. Vesting period Vested awards Unvested awards Accounting policies The cost of the share-based compensation provided to employees is measured using the fair value at the date at which the option or right is granted and is recognised as an employee benefit expense in the income statement with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments reserve in equity. The expense is spread over the vesting period, during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the option or right granted. Upon exercise of the option or right, the balance of the share-based payment reserve, relating to the option or right, is transferred to share capital. At each reporting period the Group revises the estimate of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. Any impact to the revision of an original estimate is recognised in the income statement with a corresponding adjustment to the share-based payment reserve. The employee expense, recognised each period, reflects the most recent estimate. Key judgements and estimates The fair value of options is measured at grant date taking into account market performance conditions, but excludes the impact of any non-market conditions (e.g. profitability and sales growth targets). Non-market vesting conditions are included in the assumptions about the number of options that are expected to be exercisable. The fair value of each option granted is measured on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the vesting and performance criteria, and where applicable the market condition criteria, term of the option, impact of dilution, the non-tradeable nature of the option, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. The fair value of rights is measured at grant date using a Monte-Carlo valuation model which simulates the date of vesting, the percentage vesting, the share price and total shareholder return. Once the simulated date of vesting is determined, a Black-Scholes methodology is utilised to determine the fair value of the rights granted. The following weighted average assumptions were used in determining the fair value of options and rights granted during the period: Expected dividend yield (%) Expected price volatility of the Company’s shares (%) Share price at grant date ($) Exercise price ($) – options only Risk-free interest rate – options (%) Expected life of options (years) Risk-free interest rate – rights (%) Expected life of rights (years) 2016 3.70 23.11 2.34 2.08 2.48 4.00 1.84 3.66 2015 4.20 24.00 1.66 1.22 3.00 3.50 2.55 3.35 The dividend yield reflects the assumption that the current dividend payout will continue with no anticipated changes. The expected life of the options is based on historical data and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may not necessarily be the actual outcome.

In addition, Orora Limited has guaranteed senior notes issued by Orora DGP in the US Private Placement market in 2015. The notes have maturities between 2023 and 2025 (see note 4.3). It is not expected that these guarantees will be called on. Other Certain entities in the Group are party to various legal actions and exposures that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The actions are being defended and the Directors are of the opinion that provisions are not required as no material losses are expected to arise. Key judgements and estimates Legal proceedings The outcome of currently pending and future legal, judicial, regulatory and other proceedings of a litigious nature cannot be predicted with certainty. Legal proceedings can raise difficult and complex issues and are subject to many uncertainties and complexities including, but not limited to, the facts and circumstances of each particular case, issues regarding the jurisdiction in which each proceeding is brought and differences in applicable law. An adverse decision in a legal proceeding could result in additional costs that are not covered, either wholly or partially, under insurance policies, which could significantly impact the business and the results of operations of the Group. Each legal proceeding is evaluated on a case-by-case basis considering all available information, including that from legal counsel, to assess potential outcomes. Where it is considered probable that a future obligation will result in an outflow of resources, a provision is recognised in the amount of the present value of the expected cash outflows, if these are deemed to be reliably measureable. 7.4 Orora Limited Summarised income statement and comprehensive income $ million Profit before related income tax expense Income tax expense Profit for the financial period Total comprehensive income Summarised balance sheet $ million Total current assets Total non-current assets Total assets Total current liabilities Total non-current liabilities Total liabilities Net assets Equity Contributed equity Reserves: Share-based payment reserve Cash flow hedge reserve Retained profits Total equity Orora Limited 2016 2015 111.9 (19.2) 92.7 80.7 183.8 (24.8) 159.0 156.7 Orora Limited 2016 2015 468.3 1,643.5 545.8 1,669.9 2,111.8 2,215.7 502.0 306.4 808.4 504.5 374.1 878.6 1,303.4 1,337.1 481.8 502.7 15.1 (14.9) 821.4 6.9 (2.9) 830.4 1,303.4 1,337.1 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 101 Section 7: Other (continued) 7.4 Orora Limited (continued) Orora Limited financial information The financial information for the parent entity, Orora Limited, has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below. Investments in subsidiaries In the Company’s financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less, where applicable, accumulated impairment losses. Tax consolidation regime Orora Limited and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities have formed a tax-consolidated group and are therefore taxed as a single entity. The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is Orora Limited. The Company, and the members of the tax-consolidated group, recognise their own current tax expense/income and deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from temporary differences using the ‘stand alone taxpayer’ approach by reference to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the separate financial statements of each entity and the tax values applying under tax consolidation. In addition to its current and deferred tax balances, the Company also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets), and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from members of the tax-consolidated group, as part of the tax-consolidation arrangement. Assets or liabilities arising as part of the tax consolidation arrangement are recognised as current amounts receivable or payable from the other entities within the tax-consolidated group. Nature of tax sharing agreement Upon tax consolidation, the entities within the tax-consolidated group entered into a tax sharing agreement. The terms of this agreement specify the methods of allocating any tax liability in the event of default by the Company on its group payment obligations and the treatment where a subsidiary member exits the group. The tax liability otherwise remains with the Company for tax purposes. Contingent liabilities of Orora Limited Deed of Cross Guarantee Pursuant to the terms of the ASIC Class Order 98/1418 (as amended) dated 13 August 1998, which relieved certain wholly-owned subsidiaries from specific accounting and financial reporting requirements, Orora Limited and all of the Company’s Australian wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into an approved deed for the cross guarantee of liabilities. No liabilities subject to the Deed of Cross Guarantee at 30 June 2016 are expected to arise to Orora Limited and subsidiaries, as all such subsidiaries were financially sound and solvent at that date. Details of the Deed and the consolidated financial position of the Company and the subsidiaries party to the Deed are set out in note 7.5. Other guarantees Orora Limited has guaranteed senior notes issued by Orora DGP in the US Private Placement Market in 2015. The notes have maturities between 2023 and 2025 (see note 4.3). It is not expected that these guarantees will be called on. 7.5 Deed of Cross Guarantee The Company, Orora Limited, and the subsidiaries listed below are subject to a Deed of Cross Guarantee (Deed) under which each company guarantees the debts of the others: Orora Packaging Australia Pty Ltd Pak Pacific Corporation Pty Ltd Fibre Containers (Queensland) Pty Ltd Speciality Packaging Group Pty Ltd ACN 002693843 Box Pty Ltd ACN 089523919 CCC Pty Ltd Rota Die International Pty Ltd Orora Closure Systems Pty Ltd PP New Pty Ltd AP Chase Pty Ltd Lynyork Pty Ltd Chapview Pty Ltd AGAL Holdings Pty Ltd Rota Die Pty Ltd Envirocrates Pty Ltd Under the terms of ASIC Class Order 98/1418 (as amended), those wholly-owned subsidiaries that have entered into the Deed are granted relief from the Corporations Act 2001 requirement to prepare and lodge audited Financial Reports and Directors’ Reports. 102 ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFor the financial year ended 30 June 2016Financial statements for the Orora Limited Deed of Cross Guarantee The consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income and statement of financial position of the entities party to the Deed for the year ended and as at 30 June, are set out below.

At 30 June 2016, no individual KMP or related party holds a loan with the Group (2015: nil). 7.8 New and amended accounting standards and interpretations 7.8.1 Adopted from 1 July 2015 All new and amended Australian Accounting Standards mandatory as at 1 July 2015 to the Group have been adopted, including the early adoption of AASB 9 Financial Instruments (Dec 2014). Although the adoption of these standards has resulted in some changes to the accounting policies of the Group, they have not resulted in any material adjustment to the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The adoption of AASB 9 (Dec 2014) is discussed further below. AASB 9 Financial Instruments (Dec 2014) Orora early adopted and applied all of the requirements of AASB 9 (2014) including consequential amendments to other standards, from 1 July 2015. The adoption of AASB 9 (Dec 2014) impacts the Group as follows: Classification and measurement The Group classified its financial assets and financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value in accordance with AASB 9 (2014). The principal impact on Orora’s financial assets at 1 July 2015 is the reclassification of cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables from ‘loans and receivables’ under AASB 139 to ‘financial assets at amortised cost’ under AASB 9 (Dec 2014). There were no material changes in the measurement of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities as a result of the change in classification. ORORA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 105 Section 7: Other (continued) 7.8 New and amended accounting standards and interpretations (continued) 7.8.1 Adopted from 1 July 2015 (continued) AASB 9 Financial Instruments (Dec 2014) (continued) Hedging AASB 9 (2014) introduced a new hedge accounting model to simplify hedge accounting outcomes and more closely align hedge accounting with risk management objectives. This has resulted in the following key changes to Orora’s hedge accounting: • the intrinsic value of an option can now be designated as the hedging instrument, with the change in time value recognised in other comprehensive income rather than in profit and loss. The amount recognised in other comprehensive income is then recycled to profit or loss either over the period of the hedge, if the hedge is time-related, or when the hedged transaction affects profit or loss, if the hedge is transaction related; • effectiveness measurement testing will only be performed on a prospective basis with no defined numerical range of effectiveness applied in the testing. Upon adoption of AASB 9 (Dec 2014), on 1 July 2015, there was a continuation of the existing hedge relationships. As a result, there was no material impact on the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, balance sheet or statement of changes in equity. The accounting policies for cash and cash equivalents (note 4.3), trade and other receivables (note 3.1) and derivative financial instruments (hedging instruments) (note 5.4) have been updated and are applicable from 1 July 2015. The terminology in these policies has been updated in accordance with the requirements of AASB 9 (Dec 2014). There has been no material change in the measurement and recognition of these items. 7.8.2 Issued but not yet effective The following new or amended accounting standards issued by the AASB are relevant to current operations and may impact the Group in the period of initial application. They are available for early adoption but have not been applied in preparing this financial report. AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers AASB 15 replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including AASB 118 Revenue, AASB 111 Construction Contracts, Interpretation 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes, Interpretation 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, Interpretation 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers and Interpretation 131 Revenue – Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. The new standard is based on the principle that revenue is recognised when control of a good or service transfers to a customer. The notion of control under AASB 15 replaces the existing notion of risks and rewards under the current accounting standards. The standard is applicable from 1 January 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Group is currently assessing the potential impact of the new standard upon the Group’s revenue recognition policy and at this stage are unable to estimate the financial impact on adopting the standard. The standard is not however expected to have a material impact upon the financial results of the Group. AASB 16 Leases AASB 16 replaces the current dual operating/finance lease accounting model for lessees under AASB 117 Leases and the guidance contained in Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease. The new standard introduces a single, on-balance sheet accounting model, similar to the current finance lease accounting. Under the new standard Orora will be required to recognise a ‘right-of-use’ asset and a lease liability for all identified leased assets. The current operating lease expense will be replaced with a depreciation and finance charge. The standard is applicable from 1 January 2019 with early adoption permitted with some targeted relief from the application of the lease accounting model where a lease is for a term of 12 months or less and for low value items. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the new standard upon the income statement and balance sheet. AASB 2016-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards — Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions AASB 2016-5 amends the accounting for cash-settled share-based payments and equity-settled awards that include a ‘net settlement’ feature in respect of withholding taxes. The amendment clarifies that the fair value of a cash-settled award is determined on a basis consistent with that used for equity-settled awards with any modification to a cash-settled award reflected immediately in the measurement of fair value. Any incremental value added to an equity-settled award is to be recognised over the remaining vesting period, any reduction in value is ignored. In respect of net settlement features relating to withholdings taxes, the amendments require the entity to disclose an estimate of the amount that it expects to pay to the tax authority in respect of the withholding tax obligations. The amendments are applicable from 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted.

Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the consolidated entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
