Chairman’s Statement
On behalf of your Board of
Directors, I present to you the
audited financial statements for
Avation PLC and its subsidiaries
for the year ended 30th June
2013 and to inform you of the
progress that the Avation Group
has made.
The highlights are:
•
•
•
•
Earnings per share increased by 88% to 23.25 US cents;
Fleet value increased to US$347 million;
EBITDA increased by 46% to US$38.3 million;
Revenue increased by 22% to US$42.7 million;
• Dividends increased by 10% to 1.78 US cents per share;
• Consolidated net profit after tax increased by 110% to
US$10.5 million;
• Delivery of six new ATR 72-600 aircraft, an Airbus A321
and an Airbus A320;
• Number of aircraft in fleet increased to 23 from 15;
Your Board is pleased to report that in respect of the year
ended 30 June 2013 the consolidated net profit after tax
was US$10,515,901 (2012: US$5,009,457) on revenues of
US$42,739,991 (2012: US$35,001,218) with earnings per
share of 23.25 US cents (2012: 12.36 US cents). Total returns
comprise income from cash yield from aircraft lease payments
plus the net asset value (capital) realisable from the sale of the
aircraft after repayment of associated debt obligations.
In the period to 30 June 2013, the Group delivered six new
ATR 72-600 aircraft, acquired an Airbus A321 and, pursuant
to a finance lease, an Airbus A320. Avation is scheduled to
deliver eight ATR 72-600 before the end of FY2014 and an
additional two ATR 72-600 in the second half of calendar year
2014.
The Avation fleet of 23 aircraft has an average age and lease
term of 8.7 years and 5.7 years respectively with a current
customer base of airlines in Australia, Europe and North
America. The Company has also recently announced the
securing of Fiji Airways as a new airline customer for a new
aircraft in 2014.
Avation’s fleet is diverse, comprising the new ATR aircraft and
other aircraft including Airbus A321 and A320 along with a
small number of older aircraft. Avation targets continual fleet
renewal and financial management to ensure the retention of
asset values and maximisation of earnings.
As of June 30th, total assets increased by US$147,274,204
to US$394,383,300. Corresponding liabilities increased by
US$131,212,593 to US$296,146,941 resulting in net assets
at year end of US$98,236,359.
In the period to 30 June 2013, the Company secured
committed debt funding of over US$100 million covering
aircraft deliveries to January 2014 from traditional aircraft
financing banks and other institutional lenders. Debt facilities
are primarily asset based and matched to the leases in terms of
currency, term and loan servicing ensuring there is no “through
lease term” re-financing risk. The Company believes that it can
obtain access to the necessary debt for the future purchase of
aircraft. Access to funding nevertheless remains a risk, which
is common to all businesses that are capital intensive. Specific
aviation based industry risks are also present and include the
creditworthiness of client airlines.

Annual Report 2013Chairman’s Statement
The Company has been significantly cash generative
this financial year. The EBITDA increased by 46% to
US$38,329,167. Purchasing aircraft typically requires a
mixture of senior debt, a junior debt tier and equity which may
be self generated. The directors seek to minimize the cost of
funds and hence may seek to refinance existing debt facilities.
The Company continues to evaluate the state of both debt and
equity along with choice of market for equity capital, in the
context of its ongoing requirements.
The Directors believe they have demonstrated that the
Group has a sustainable business model and are committed
to develop the Avation business as a differentiated aircraft
operating lease business to provide constant and defined
internal rates of return, cash yields and predictive capital
returns from investment in the narrow body and regional
aircraft market and more particularly in the Australian and
South East Asian sector.
Our business provides for continued and sustainable growth in
2014 and beyond. The outlook for calendar year 2014 is 43%
growth in the fleet contracted by way of committed deliveries.
to actively evaluate
Avation continues
further aircraft
acquisition investment opportunities. As a result, the Company
is well advanced with respect the funding of its 2014 deliveries
and is developing formalised capital funding programmes to
provide a diversified funding base with access to both debt
and equity markets.
Whilst the business is engaged in funding the continued
aggressive asset growth of the fleet, your Board overwhelmingly
recognises the importance of rewarding shareholders and is
recommending to shareholders a final dividend payment of
1.78 US cents per share. Accordingly, the Company hopes
to maintain a progressive dividend policy going forward. The
record date for this final dividend will be announced in the
meeting materials for the upcoming annual general meeting.
My colleagues and I are committed to continue working
tirelessly to build your Company into a respected, profitable,
diversified and cash generative aircraft leasing business. The
Board would like to thank you – the shareholders for your
continued support and goodwill and look forward to the future
with confidence in the successful development of Avation PLC.

Strategy
Photo: Jean-Guy Aldegon
The Company’s strategy is to continue to expand the Group’s
aircraft leasing business by:
•
•
“Capitalising on continued growth in the aircraft leasing
market by acquiring additional aircraft:” the Company
intends to exploit the current growth in the aircraft leasing
market by acquiring additional aircraft. The Company
will adopt a flexible approach to the age and type of
aircraft it purchases and this will depend principally on the
requirements of its growing customer base. The Company
is continuously evaluating potential opportunities
for growth in its portfolio of aircraft, in particular by
maintaining communications with airlines, aircraft owners
and manufacturers.
“Leasing aircraft to both regional and international
airlines:” the Directors expect the Group’s customer base
to comprise both regional and global airline companies.
The Group’s customer base will not be restricted to a
particular geography or type of customer.
Aircraft Demand and the Global Commercial Aircraft
Fleet
Demand for new aircraft is derived from both traffic growth
and replacement of older equipment. Historically, demand
for growth has been driven by economic growth and market
maturity, market liberalization and the adoption of new business
models.
Aircraft replacement is related to the relative operating
economics of old and new aircraft, fuel prices, technological
improvements and the demand for conversions of passenger
aircraft to freighters.
Growth Drivers
The world fleet is expected to grow steadily as airlines continue
to develop service offerings to accommodate the world’s
rapidly growing demand for air travel. Key elements that are
currently driving growth in demand for both new and used
aircraft include:
• High rates of economic growth and increasing propensity
to travel in emerging markets;
•
•
Liberalisation of air service between and within countries;
and
Stimulation of traffic from growing Low Cost Carriers
offering lower fares.
Replacement Drivers
The requirement to replace older aircraft that are retired or
converted to freighter configuration also forms a substantial
driver of aircraft demand, particularly in large mature regions.

is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue
in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting
records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company

accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company
and the Group and enable them to ensure that the financial
statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are
also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company
and the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the
prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and

governing the preparation and dissemination of the financial
statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Report of the Auditors
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF AVATION PLC
We have audited the financial statements of Avation PLC for the
year ended 30 June 2013 which comprise the Consolidated
Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Company Statement
of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the
Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Changes
in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity, the
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Company Statement of
Cash Flows and the related notes. The financial reporting framework
that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by
the European Union and as regards the Parent Company financial
statements, as applied in accordance with the provisions of the
Companies Act 2006.
This report is made solely to the Company’s members, as a body,
in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act
2006. Our audit work has been undertaken for no purpose other
than to draw to the attention of the Company’s members those
matters which we are required to include in an auditors’ report
addressed to them. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do
not accept or assume responsibility to any party other than the
Company and Company’s members as a body, for our work, for
this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors
As explained more fully in the Directors’ Responsibilities Statement
set out on page 17 the Directors are responsible for the preparation
of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a
true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit and express an
opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable
law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those
standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s
(APB’s) Ethical Standards for Auditors.
Scope of the audit of the financial statements
An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable
assurance that the financial statements are free from material
misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an
assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to
the Group’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and
adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by the directors; and the overall presentation of
the financial statements. In addition, we read all the financial and
non-financial information in the Annual Report to identify material
inconsistencies with the audited financial statements. If we became
aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies
we consider the implications in our report.
Opinion on the financial statements
In our opinion:
• the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of
the Group’s and of the Parent Company’s affairs as at 30 June
2013 and of the Group’s profit for the year then ended;
• the Group’s financial statements have been properly prepared
in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union;
• the Parent Company financial statements have been prepared
properly in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European
Union and as applied in accordance with the provisions of the
Companies Act 2006, and
• the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and, as regards
the Group financial statements, Article 4 of the IAS Regulation.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act
2006
In our opinion:
• the part of the Directors’ Remuneration Report to be audited
has been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies
Act 2006; and
• the information given in the Directors’ Report for the financial
year for which the financial statements are prepared is
consistent with the financial statements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where
the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our
opinion:
• adequate accounting records have not been kept by the Parent
Company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been
received from branches not visited by us; or
• the Parent Company financial statements are not in agreement
with the accounting records and returns; or
• certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law
are not made; or
• we have not received all the information and explanations we
require for our audit.

GENERAL
Avation PLC is a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales under the
Companies Act 2006 (Registration Number 05872328) and is listed as a Standard Listing
on the London Stock Exchange. The address of the registered office is given on page 1.
As disclosed in the Report of the Directors, the principal activities of the Company and its
subsidiaries are the holding of investments involved in owning and leasing of aircraft. The
Company also owns and leases aircraft in its own right.
2
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards and their interpretations issued
or adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board as adopted by use in the
European Union (“IFRS”).
3
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) BASIS OF PREPARATION – The financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with IFRS including standards and interpretations issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and have been prepared in
accordance with the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of
aircraft.
The financial statements are presented in United States Dollars, rounded to the
nearest Dollar. The year end exchange rate for Pounds Sterling to United States
Dollars is 1.5216. There has been a change in accounting policy regarding the
change in presentational currency from Pounds Sterling to United States Dollars
which has been applied as disclosed in Note 34.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial period. Although
these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and
actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently throughout the
financial period presented in these financial statements and the accounting policies
have been applied consistently by the Company and its subsidiaries.

(b) BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements comprise the
financial statements of Avation PLC and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2013.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on
which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that
such control ceases.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting
period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
All intra-group balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains and losses
resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full.
Losses within a subsidiary are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that
results in a deficit balance.
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is
accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
• Derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary
• Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest
• Derecognises the cumulative translation differences, recorded in equity
• Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
• Recognises the fair value of any investment retained
• Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss
• Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in other
comprehensive income to profit or loss.
(c) BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Business combinations from 1 July 2009
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of
an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred,
measured at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interest
in the acquiree. For each business combination, the acquirer measures the non-
controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of
the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition costs incurred are expensed and
included in administrative expenses.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities
assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the
contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the
acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host
contracts by the acquiree.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the
acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at
the acquisition date through profit or loss.

and their amount can be measured reliably.
(e) GOODWILL - Goodwill arising on the acquisition of a subsidiary represents the excess
of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable
assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary recognised at the date of
acquisition. Goodwill is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently
measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognised as an asset and initially measured at cost,
being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s interest in
the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities

acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceeds the cost of the
business combination, the excess is recognised immediately in the profit or loss.

FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013
The interest of significant minority shareholders in the acquiree is initially measured at
the non-controlling interest’s proportion of the net fair value of the assets, liabilities and
contingent liabilities recognised.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s
cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Cash-
generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment
annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If
the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of
the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the
basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An impairment loss recognised
for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
On disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the
determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
(f)
INVENTORIES – Inventories of consumable spare parts are stated at the lower of cost
or market value determined on a portfolio basis.
(g) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT – All items of property, plant and equipment
are initially recorded at cost. Subsequent to recognition, Aircraft are stated in the
balance sheet at their revalued amounts, being the fair value at the date of
revaluation, less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Revaluations are performed with sufficient regularity such that the carrying amount
does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair values at the
balance sheet date. However, these aircraft have been reviewed for impairment.
Revaluations have not been carried out in the period on the ATR fleet which is less
than two years old.
Any revaluation increase arising on the revaluation of such aircraft is credited to the
assets revaluation reserve, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation
decrease for the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss, in which case the
increase is credited to profit or loss to the extent of the decrease previously charged.
A decrease in carrying amount arising on the revaluation of such aircraft is charged to
profit or loss to the extent that it exceeds the balance, if any, held in the assets
revaluation reserve relating to a previous revaluation of that asset.
Depreciation on revalued aircraft is charged to profit or loss. On the subsequent sale
or retirement of a revalued aircraft, the attributable revaluation surplus remaining in
the asset revaluation reserve is transferred directly to retained earnings.

AVATION PLC
REGISTERED NUMBER: 05872328 (ENGLAND & WALES)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less
residual values, over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method, on
the following bases:
Aircraft
Furniture and equipment
-
-
30 years
3 years
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are revised and adjusted
if appropriate, at each reporting date. Residual value of aircraft are based on their
estimated scrap value.
Fully depreciated assets still in use are retained in the financial statements.
The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant
and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
(h) IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS - At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the
carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication
that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists,
the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of
the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable
amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. If the recoverable amount of an
asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the
carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable
amount. Impairment losses are recognised as an expense immediately.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset
(or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable
amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed
the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been
recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an
impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.
(i) PROVISIONS - Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation
as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the Group will be required to settle
that obligation. Provisions are measured at the directors’ best estimate of the
expenditure required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date, and are
discounted to present value where the effect is material. In respect of maintenance
rent, a corresponding provision

maintenance costs that will be drawn in accordance with the lease conditions and
lease term.
in accordance with
is made
(j) SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS – The cost of share based payment arrangement
whereby employees receive remuneration in the form of warrants, is recognised as
an employee benefit expense in the profit or loss. The total expense to be
apportioned over the vesting period of the benefit is determined by reference to the
fair value at date of grant. The assumption underlying the number of warrants
expected to vest are subsequently adjusted for the effects of non market-based
vesting conditions prevailing at the balance sheet date. Fair value is measured by
the use of the Binomial option pricing model and is based on a reasonable
expectation of the extent to which performance criteria will be met.

(k) LEASES – The Group leases aircraft to airlines under operating leases. Leases of
aircraft where the Group retains substantially all risks and rewards incidental to
ownership are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating leases
(net of any incentives given to the lessees) is recognised in the profit or loss on a
straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Group leases aircraft for use in the business. Where the Group bears
substantially all the risk and rewards of ownership of the item, the lease is classified
as a finance lease and the item is capitalised within the appropriate class of
property, plant and equipment at the lower of the fair value of the leased item and
the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the
liability and finance charges so as to obtain a constant rate on the finance balance
outstanding. The outstanding capital element of the lease payments are included
within current and long-term payables as appropriate; the interest element of the
lease payments is charged to profit or loss over the period of the lease so as to
produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability
for each period.
(l) REVENUE RECOGNITION – Revenue is measured at the fair value of the
consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods
and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and sales
related taxes.
(i)
(ii)
Aircraft rental income is recognised in the profit or loss on a straight line basis
over the terms of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an
integral part of the total rental income.
Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal
outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that
exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of
the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount.
(iii)
Sales of goods are recognised when goods are delivered and title has
passed.
(iv) Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholders’ right
to receive payment have been established.
(v)
Licence fees received are recognised over the life of the licence agreement.
Ongoing royalties/commissions pursuant to the licence agreement are
recognised as earned.
(m) BORROWING COSTS - Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition of
property, plant and equipment are added to the cost of the assets and amortised
over the life of the assets.
The loan facility fees added to the cost of the assets are amortised over 30 years,
which is the life of the assets.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they
are incurred.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013
(n) TAXATION - Taxation expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and
deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the financial period. Taxable
profit differs from profit as reported in profit or loss because it excludes items of
income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further
excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current
tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted
by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in
the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet
liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable
temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is
probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary
differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the
temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than
in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects
neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on
investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal
of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not
reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date
and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits
will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period
when the liability is settled or the asset realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited
to profit or loss, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to
equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable
right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate
to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to
settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
With effect from 1 April 2011 the Company migrated its business to become
Singapore resident for tax purposes.

(o) FOREIGN CURRENCIES - The Group’s consolidated financial statements and
Company financial statements are presented in United States dollars, which is the
presentational currency. The individual financial statements of each Group entity
are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
entity operates (its functional currency) and United States Dollars is the functional
currency of the each of the Group entity, including the parent company.
There has been a change in accounting policy and has been applied as disclosed
in Note 34.in Note 34.
In preparing the financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in
currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are
recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At
each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are
retranslated at the rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items
carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at
the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary
items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not
retranslated.
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the
retranslation of monetary items, are included in the profit or loss for the period.
Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items carried at
fair value are included in the profit or loss for the period except for differences
arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and
losses are recognised directly in equity. For such non-monetary items, any
exchange component of that gain or loss is also recognised directly in equity.
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and
liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are expressed in United States dollars
using exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income and expense
items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange
rates fluctuated significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at
the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are
classified as equity and transferred to the Group’s translation reserve. Such
translation differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the
foreign operation is disposed of.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation
are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the
closing rate.

is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. The allowance recognised is
measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the
present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective
interest rate computed at initial recognition.

Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on
hand and call deposits which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in
value.
Financial liabilities and equity - Financial liabilities and equity instruments
issued by the Group are classified according to the substance of the
contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial
liability and an equity instrument. An equity instrument is any contract that
evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of
its liabilities. The accounting policies adopted for specific financial liabilities
and equity instruments are set out below.
Borrowings - Interest-bearing loans from banks and financial institutions are
initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised
cost, using the effective interest rate method. Any difference between the
proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the settlement or redemption of
borrowings is recognised over the term of the borrowings in accordance with
the Group’s accounting policy for borrowing costs (see above).
Trade and other payables - Trade payables are stated at their original
invoiced value, as the interest that would be recognised from discounting
future cash payments over the short payment period is not considered to be
material.
(vii)
Equity instruments - Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded
at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
Estimates and assumptions concerning the future are made in the preparation of the
financial statements. They affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies,
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and disclosures made. They
are assessed on an ongoing basis and are based on experience and relevant factors,
including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances.
The key assumptions concerning the future estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
(i)
Impairment of property, plant and equipment – aircraft
The Group periodically evaluates its aircraft for impairment. Factors that would
indicate potential impairment would include, but not be limited to, significant
decreases in the market value of aircraft, a significant adverse change in an
aircraft’s physical condition or a significant adverse change in cash-flow
associated with the use of the aircraft. The Group continues to record positive
cash flows from its aircraft
(ii)
Revaluation of property, plant and equipment – aircraft
the
financial year,
The Group regularly revalues its aircraft using independent valuers valuations.
During
its older aircraft using
independent valuers valuations and the carrying amount of the aircraft is
reduced to its recoverable value. Impairment losses were recognised as an
expense immediately.
the Group revalued
(iii)
Maintenance reserve claim
The Group provides for maintenance reserve claims for certain aircraft.
Management has relied on industry experience and information from aircraft
manufacturers and airlines to estimate the provision for the maintenance
reserve claims. These estimates can be subject to revisions depending on a
number of factors such as the timing of the planned maintenance, the utilisation
of the aircraft, changes to the manufacturer’s maintenance program or a
change in the estimated costs. Management evaluates its estimates and
assumptions and, when warranted, adjusts these assumptions which may
impact the maintenance reserve claim expense in the profit or loss.

(iv)
Income taxes
Significant judgment is required in determining the capital allowances and
deductibility of certain expenses during the estimation of the provision for
income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the
ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business.
The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates
of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these
matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such
differences will impact the income tax and deferred income tax provisions in the
period in which the determination is made.
(v)
Consolidation of special purpose entity (“SPE”) – Avation Airframe Holdings
Pte. Ltd.
The directors have considered whether this company, which was set up during
the previous year and which forms part of a financing structure to facilitate the
acquisition of certain new aircraft, should be consolidated as a subsidiary
undertaking. Although the ultimate shareholder of the SPE is a trust, the
directors consider that Avation PLC has the power to control the day to day
activities of the SPE and indeed does so in practice through one of its wholly
owned subsidiary undertakings. Furthermore, Avation PLC is entitled to the
benefits and exposed to the risks of the activities of the SPE, which are entirely
consistent with the ongoing major operations of the Avation Group, and are
conducted on behalf of the Group according to the Group’s specific business
needs. Accordingly the directors consider that the SPE is controlled by the
Group and have consolidated it as a subsidiary in these financial statements.
The Group would cease to control the SPE in the event of a “Relevant Event”
as defined in the financing agreement, for example, a delay in payment of
interest. Were this to occur consolidation would cease at that point although the
Group has no intention, or anticipation, that any such event will occur.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The main risks arising from the Group’s financial assets and liabilities are airline industry
risks, credit risk, interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and liquidity risks.
(i)
Airline Industry Risks
The Group faces risks specific to the aviation sector, war, terrorism, and equipment
failure. These exposures are managed through the equipment of the airlines that
lease the Group’s assets to maintain insurance, adequate maintenance policies
and/or contribute to a maintenance reserve for the major maintenance on each
aircraft.
(ii) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that debtors will default on their obligations to repay the
amounts owing to the Group, resulting in a loss to the Group.
The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The Group has adopted
relevant credit policy in extending credit terms to customers and in monitoring its
credit terms.
The credit policy spelt out clearly the guidelines on extending credit terms to
customers, including monitoring the process. This includes assessing customers’
credit standing and periodic review of their financial status to determine the credit
limits to be granted. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluation of its
customers’ financial condition and generally, requires no collateral from its
customers.
The maximum exposure to credit risk in the event that the counterparties fail to
perform their obligations as at the end of the financial period in relation to each
class of financial assets is the carrying amount of those assets as stated in the
balance sheet.
The Group currently has exposure to three airline customers across three
continents with regards to its aircraft leasing business and diversification will
continue as the Company grows its asset base.

Bank deposits that are neither past due or impaired are mainly deposits with
banks with high credit–ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.
Trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are substantially
companies with a good collection track record with the Group.
The Group’s trade receivable not past due include receivables amounting to
US$3,258,279 (2012: US$2,172,471).

(iii)
Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk through the impact of rate changes on
interest bearing liabilities and assets.
The Group further seeks to reduce this risk by fixing interest rates on loans to match
the term of the underlying lease term of the asset.
The interest rate and terms of repayment of financial assets and financial liabilities
are disclosed in the respective notes to the financial statements.
(iv) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk occurs as a result of the Group’s transactions that are not
denominated in its functional currencies. The Group’s foreign currency exposures
arose mainly from the exchange rate movements of the Pound Sterling and United
States dollar. These exposures are managed primarily by using natural hedges that
arise from offsetting assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies.
The Group does not utilise forward foreign currency contracts to hedge its exposure
to specific currency risks.
The Group’s currency exposure based on the information provided to key

(vi) Capital risk
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue
as a going concern and to maintain a suitable capital structure so as to fund growth and
maximise shareholder value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the
Group may adjust the amount of dividend payment, return capital to shareholders, issue new
shares, buy back issued shares, obtain new borrowings or sell assets to reduce borrowings.
Management monitors capital based on a gearing ratio. The gearing ratio is calculated as net
debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as borrowings plus trade and other
payables less cash and cash equivalents.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Related parties are entities with common direct or indirect shareholders and/or directors. Parties are
considered to be related if one party has the ability to control the other party or exercise significant
influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions.
Some of the Company and Group’s transactions and arrangements are with related parties and the
effect of these on the basis determined between the parties is reflected in these financial statements.
The balances are unsecured, interest-free and without fixed repayment terms.
(a) Compensation of directors and key management personnel
The remuneration of directors and key management’s remuneration includes fees, salary, bonus,
commission and other emoluments (including benefits-in-kind) based on the cost incurred by the

Diluted earnings per share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, profit attributable to equity
holders of the Company and the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The
Company has one category of dilutive potential ordinary shares; warrants.
For warrants, the weighted average number of shares on issue has been adjusted as
if all dilutive share options were exercised. The number of shares that could have
been issued upon the exercise of all dilutive share option less the number of shares
that could have been issued at fair value (determined as the Company’s average
share price for the financial year) for the same total proceeds is added to the
denominator as the number of shares issued for no consideration. None of the
warrants in existence are dilutive as their exercise price is greater that the weighted
average share price. No adjustment is made to the net profit.
Diluted earnings per share attributable to equity holders of the Company is
calculated as follows:

On 25 March 2008, the subsidiary, Capital Lease Aviation PLC acquired the right, title and
interest in the aircraft held on trust by Wilmington Trust Company (“Wilmington”), a US
trust company. As the aircraft is registered in the US, legal title to the aircraft is held by
Wilmington and Capital Lease Aviation PLC is the beneficial owner. The aircraft is leased
by Wilmington to a US airline.
Assets held under finance lease
During the financial year, the Group acquired aircraft with an aggregated cost of
US$16,560,816 (2012: US$37,000,000) and the Company acquired aircraft with an
aggregated cost of US$16,560,816 (2012: US$Nil) by means of finance leases
respectively.
The carrying amount of aircraft held under finance leases at the end of the reporting
period was US$54,768,779 (2012: US$43,664,897).
Assets pledged as security
In addition to assets held under finance leases, the Group’s aircraft with carrying values
of US$ 261,655,019 (2012: US$170,972,560) are mortgaged to secure the Group’s
borrowings (Note 24).
The Group’s property, plant and equipment include borrowing costs from bank loans
specifically used for purchase of aircraft. During the financial year, the borrowing costs
capitalised as cost of property, plant and equipment amount to US$210,000 (2012: US$Nil).
The Group’s older aircraft were revalued either at January 2013 or June 2013 by
independent valuers, on the basis of lease encumbered value and the carrying value of the
aircraft is reduced to its recoverable value. Impairment losses were recognised as an
expense immediately.

Goodwill is allocated to the cash generating unit ("CGU") Avation.net Inc which is in the
procurement business.
The recoverable amount of Avation.net Inc has been determined based on a value-in-use
calculation using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by management
covering the next financial year.
Management believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the above key
assumptions would cause the carrying value of the CGU to materially exceed its
recoverable amount.

The amount due to subsidiaries and related parties are unsecured, interest free and without fixed
repayment terms unless otherwise stated.
The average credit period taken to settle non-related party trade payables is approximately 60 days.
The deposits collected were from customers in respect of aircraft lease commitments, and have been
discounted to their present value at a current pre-tax rate that reflect the risks specific to these
deposits. These deposits will be refunded at the end of the lease terms.

SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
Share options and warrants
The Group has an ownership-based compensation scheme for directors and senior management of

dividends nor voting rights. Warrants may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the
date of their expiry.
Warrants are granted to the directors and senior management of the Group to gain:
•
•
•
Improvement in share price
Improvement in net profit
Improvement in return to shareholders

The weighted average fair value of the warrants granted during the last financial year was 8.17
pence. The value of the warrants granted during the last financial year was US$103,565.
The warrants were priced using the Binomial option pricing model. Where relevant, the expected
life used in the model has been adjusted based on the management’s best estimate for the
effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions (including the probability of meeting market
conditions attached to the option), and behavioural considerations. Expected volatility is based on
the historical share price volatility over the past four months.

The above capital commitments represent amounts due under contracts entered into by
the group to purchase aircraft after exercising options. The company has paid deposits
towards the cost of these aircraft which are included in trade and other receivables.
In addition to the aircraft which the group has committed to purchasing, the group holds
options to purchase an additional 10 aircraft at agreed prices. The options are held in
the balance sheet at cost as it is not possible to place a reliable estimate on their fair
values. Uncertainties exist over the finance to exercise the options and the market price
of the aircraft at the time of delivery, given aircraft are non-financial assets with no
indexed market and long lead times. There is no open market on which to trade the
options and the Group has no history of exercising options and selling the asset shortly
after, accordingly it is not considered appropriate to recognise any potential gain on
these options arising from potential increases in aircraft values over and above the
option price.

b)
Contingencies
The Company’s subsidiary, F100 Pty. Ltd. receives maintenance rent from the lease
of its aircraft in addition to the base rent. Lessees may be entitled to be reimbursed
for specific long term maintenance items (“maintenance rent activities”) that they may
incur during the term of the lease. The lessees must not be in default of the lease and
must satisfy certain conditions before they can claim. Furthermore, the lessees must
provide invoices and supporting documentation as satisfactory evidence to F100 Pty.
Ltd. that the maintenance rent activity has been carried out necessarily.
The amount of the claim for any one maintenance rent activity is limited to the total
amount of the maintenance rent received for that specific maintenance rent activity to
date under the lease for that aircraft.
The carrying out of each specific maintenance activity is dependent on the number of
cycles and flying hours conducted by the aircraft.
Consequently, F100 Pty. Ltd. have a contingent liability which is conditional on the
volume of cycles and flying hours of the aircraft, upon the actual cost of maintenance
rent activity, the lessee making a valid claim with the required documents in the
required time frame, and there being an unclaimed balance against the specific
maintenance rent activity for that aircraft.
Any unclaimed balance that F100 Pty. Ltd. holds at the end of the lease is not
refundable to the lessees.
During the financial year ended 30 June 2013, the Group had received US$1,993,142
(2012: US$2,003,097) in maintenance rent.
to manufacturers’
The future claims against the maintenance reserves funds can be estimated
according
typical aircraft usage.
Unforeseen events may occur however, which creates some uncertainty for the
Group in calculating the final future claimable amount and the timing of such claims
from the maintenance reserve funds.
recommendations and
The Company’s subsidiary, MSN 1607 Pte. Ltd. has acquired an aircraft during the year
together with a contingent liability to pay amounts to the lessee dependent upon the
return condition of the aircraft at the end of the lease term. It would only become
payable by the subsidiary to the lessee in the event that the aircraft is returned at lease-
end/redelivery at the end of the lease in April 2018 in a full life condition. Management
is of the view that the return condition of the aircraft will be at half life condition. A
reliable estimate of the future payment obligation at half life condition cannot be made
and hence a provision not made.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
a)
Segment reporting policy
A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group within a particular economic
environment (geographical segment) and to a particular industry (business segment) which
is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments.
The primary format, business segments, is based on the Group’s management and internal
reporting structure. In presenting information on the basis of business segments, segment
revenue and segment assets are based on the nature of the products or services provided
by the Group, information for geographical segments is based on the geographical areas
where the customers are located.
Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis. Segment results, assets and
liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be
allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly of corporate assets
and liabilities or profit or losses items that are not directly attributable to a segment or those
that cannot be allocated on a reasonable basis. Common expenses were allocated based
on revenue from the Group.
Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire segment
assets that are expected to be used for more than one year.
b)
Primary reporting segment – business segments
During the year ended 30 June 2013, the Group was organised into two main business
segments which are aircraft leasing and business procurement.
Other operations of the Group mainly comprise investment holding which does not
constitute a separate reportable segment. There are no inter-segment transactions
recorded during the financial period.
The business procurement segment does not meet the quantitative thresholds and is not
separately disclosed.

34 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Items included in the financial statements of the Company for the financial period ended 30 June
2012 were measured and presented using the Pound Sterling (£). During the current financial
period ended 30 June 2013, United States Dollars (US$) was adopted as the Company’s
presentational currency.
The Company determined that using US$ as its presentational currency best reflected the
economic substance of the underlying events and circumstances relevant to the Company as it is
the functional currency of the Group.
This change of accounting policy requires items in the financial statements, including comparative
figures to be measured and presented in US$.
In year 2012, the foreign translation reserve was £2.5m arose from translating subsidiaries whose
presentational currency was US$ in to £, and now the Group accounts are presented in US$ that
this reserve has been eliminated.
