These achievements, in addition to our strong balance sheet ensure that BSA is well placed for the year ahead and to take advantage of strategic growth opportunities in the future. Coming into 2017 the two major legacy issues requiring resolution were the NSW Office of State Revenue (OSR) matter and the new Royal Adelaide Hospital (nRAH) project. As previously announced to the market, BSA signed a settlement deed with the project’s Head Contractor (a joint venture between Hansen Yuncken and CPB (formerly Leighton Contractors)). The deed resulted in a cash receipt of $5.3 million but negative impact on EBITDA of $2.6 million. There are a number of commercial issues which require resolution including more recent variations which BSA consider clear scope changes. Whilst outside the reporting period, we have also made progress on the NSW OSR matter. BSA reached an in principle commercial settlement with the OSR in August 2017, which signals an end to this long running and complex tax issue. An additional provision for the impact of this settlement has been recognised in the FY2017 financial statements. The BSA Management Team was bolstered during the year by the appointment of our Chief Operating Officer, Tim Harris.

Chief Financial Officer (Nick Benson) to return to more traditional roles. Since commencing in September 2016, Tim has made a positive impact in terms of restructuring and refining our operational processes and strengthening the commercial practices within our business unit teams. A detailed review of our results is provided within the Managing Director’s report; however the key highlights are as follows: Revenue $492.3 million (2016: $511.9 million) EBITDA $11.1 million (2016: $4.1 million) EBITDA excluding significant items $17.8 million (2016: $18.6 million) Whilst the BSA | Connect result was impacted by the NSW OSR settlement and lower than anticipated revenues across some clients, the team has had a successful year in terms of mobilisation of key contracts awarded in the previous year (including nbn works) and the successful launch into the electrical metering space. BSA | Maintain has delivered a significant margin improvement in FY2017. Business development has also been a key priority for this Business Unit, resulting in the growth of annuity revenue by $10 million compared with the previous year. 2017 has also been a successful year in relation to workplace health and safety, with BSA exceeding targets across all key metrics in NPAT $4.0 million (2016: loss $2.2 million) this arena.

As mentioned, the Group is confidently entering 2018 with a solid forward order book and contracted recurring revenue streams. These factors, combined with the resolution of key legacy issues and strengthened management team, should signal the emergence of a sustainable growth period for BSA. BSA has again enjoyed a robust and supportive relationship with its financiers throughout FY2017 and we look forward to their continued support in FY2018. On behalf of the Board I would like to thank our CEO, Nicholas Yates, the executive team and their staff for their continued efforts and ongoing commitment to our customers and shareholders.

The framework aligns executive reward with achievement of strategic objectives, the creation of value for shareholders and conforms to market practice for how the reward is paid. The Board ensures that executives’ reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices: • • • • • Competitiveness and reasonableness; Acceptability to shareholders; Performance linkage/alignment of executive compensation; Transparency; and Capital management. • Has the achievement of target financial profit as a core component of performance reward; • As well as focusing each executive on key performance metrics relevant to the role; and • Attracts and retains high calibre executives.

The framework provides a mix of fixed and variable at-risk pay for executives and senior managers as well as additional long-term incentives for the most senior executives. As executives gain seniority and greater responsibility within the Group, the balance of this mix shifts to a higher proportion of at-risk rewards. The Board has established a Remuneration Committee that provides advice on remuneration and incentive policies and practices, as well as specific recommendations on remuneration packages and other terms of employment for Executive Directors, other Senior Executives and Non-Executive Directors. The Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the role of this committee. 17 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 DIRECTORS’ REPORT The table below sets out summary information about the consolidated entity’s earnings and movements in shareholder wealth for the five years to 30 June 2017: Revenue Net profit/(loss) before tax Net profit/(loss) after tax Share price at start of year Share price at end of year Interim Dividend 1 Final Dividend 2 Basic earnings per share Diluted earnings per share 30 June 2017 30 June 2016 30 June 2015 30 June 2014 30 June 2013 $492.3m $5.6m $4.0m $0.245 $0.340 $511.9m ($3.0)m ($2.2)m $0.165 $0.245 $543.7m $491.5m $474.2m $5.4m $3.9m $0.100 $0.165 ($61.3)m ($54.8)m $0.145 $0.100 $2.8m $3.8m $0.200 $0.145 0.00 cps 0.00 cps 0.00 cps 0.00 cps 0.50 cps 0.50 cps 0.00 cps 0.00 cps 0.00 cps 0.00 cps 0.94cps (0.52)cps 1.11 cps (23.97) cps 0.93cps (0.52)cps 1.10 cps (23.97) cps 1.64 cps 1.60 cps 1 Franked to 100% at 30% corporate income tax rate. 2 Declared after the end of the reporting period and not reflected in the financial statements.

These are subject to the approval of shareholders at the 2017 AGM. 23 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 DIRECTORS’ REPORT F REMUNERATION CONSULTANTS In December 2016, Godfrey Remuneration Group (GRG) was appointed as independent remuneration advisor to the Board and was engaged, independent of management, to assist the Board with a review of the current structure of the Executive Rights Plan. GRG is assisting the Board to develop and document a new Rights plan which is reflective of the current regulatory and tax environment, including the use of indeterminate rights (which are rights to the value of a share, which may be settled in the future for of a Company share, or the equivalent value in cash). The purpose of the use of indeterminate rights is to manage termination and tax issues that arise rather than to award long term incentives in cash i.e. it would be expected that Rights will be settled in shares, other than in exceptional circumstances. The new plan will also allow executives to elect to extend the deferral of their incentives beyond the default periods, if it is in their view appropriate to their circumstances, and facilitate the sacrificing of cash remuneration into Restricted Rights (which are subject to disposal restrictions). This is intended to encourage executives to hold more equity, for longer, improving alignment with shareholders. GRG was also engaged to develop an opportunity for non-executive directors to purchase equity in BSA through a fee sacrifice scheme, which is also intended to improve the alignment between such directors, and shareholders. The engagement of GRG by the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee was based on an agreed set of protocols that have been followed by GRG, members of the Remuneration Committee and members of the key management personnel, governing the way in which remuneration recommendations would be developed by GRG and provided non-executive members of the Remuneration Committee. These arrangements were implemented to ensure that GRG would be able to carry out its work, including information capture and the formation of its recommendations, free from undue influence by Executive directors or executive key management personnel about whom the recommendations may relate. The Board undertook its own inquiries and review of the processes and procedures followed by GRG and is satisfied that their remuneration recommendations were made free from such influence. The Board and Remuneration Committee confirm that GRG made remuneration recommendations within the meaning of the Corporations Act in respect of the structure of the Incentive Plans being considered. These remuneration recommendations were made in respect of elements of remuneration and were not in respect of the quantum of the incentives to be provided. The advice obtained from GRG is currently being considered by the Board and Remuneration Committee and if any new schemes, or amendments to existing schemes, are considered appropriate, they will be brought to shareholders for approval. The total consideration paid during the year by the company to GRG for the provision of the remuneration recommendations in the 2017 financial year was $5,000 (2016: Nil).

The address of its registered office and principal places of business are disclosed in the Corporate Directory at the end of the Annual Report. The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) are described in note 29. NOTE 2 APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (IFRSs) 2.1 Amendments to IFRSs that are mandatorily effective for the current year In the current year, the Group has applied a number of amendments to IFRSs issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that are mandatorily effective for an accounting period that begins on or after 1 July 2016. Amendments to IFRS 11 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations The Group has applied these amendments for the first time in the current year. The amendments provide guidance on how to account for the acquisition of a joint operation that constitutes a business as defined in IFRS 3 Business Combinations. Specifically, the amendments state that the relevant principles on accounting for business combinations in IFRS 3 and other standards should be applied. The same requirements should be applied to the formation of a joint operation if and only if an existing business is contributed to the joint operation by one of the parties that participate in the joint operation. A joint operator is also required to disclose the relevant information required by IFRS 3 and other standards for business combinations. The application of these amendments has had no impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements as the Group did not have any such transactions in the current year. Amendments to IAS 1 Disclosure Initiative The Group has applied these amendments for the first time in the current year. The amendments clarify that an entity need not provide a specific disclosure required by an IFRS if the information resulting from that disclosure is not material, and give guidance on the basis of aggregating and disaggregating information for disclosure purposes. However, the amendments reiterate that an entity should consider providing additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in IFRS is insufficient to enable users of financial statements to understand the impact of particular transactions, events and conditions on the entity’s financial position and financial performance. In addition, the amendments clarify that an entity’s share of the other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method should be presented separately from those arising from the Group, and should be separated into the share of items that, in accordance with other IFRSs: (i) will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (ii) will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. As regards to the structure of the financial statements, the amendments provide examples of systematic ordering or grouping of the notes. The application of these amendments has not resulted in any impact on the financial performance or financial position of the Group. Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation The Group has applied these amendments for the first time in the current year. The amendments to IAS 16 prohibit entities from using a revenue-based depreciation method for items of property, plant and equipment. The amendments to IAS 38 introduce a rebuttable presumption that revenue is not an appropriate basis for amortisation of an intangible asset. This presumption can only be rebutted in the following two limited circumstances: a) b) when the intangible asset is expressed as a measure of revenue; or when it can be demonstrated that revenue and consumption of the economic benefits of the intangible asset are highly correlated. As the Group already uses the straight-line method for depreciation and amortisation for its property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets respectively, the application of these amendments has had no impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements. Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle The Group has applied the below amendment for the first time in the current year. The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle include a number of amendments to various IFRSs. The amendments to IAS 19 clarify that the rate used to discount post-employment benefit obligations should be determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on high quality corporate bonds. The assessment of the depth of a market for high quality corporate bonds should be at the currency level (i.e. the same currency as the benefits are to be paid). For currencies for which there is no deep market in such high quality corporate bonds, the market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds denominated in that currency should be used instead. The application of these amendments has had no effect on the Group's consolidated financial statements. 35 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 2 APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED) 2.2 Standards and Interpretations on issue not yet adopted The Group has not applied the following new and revised IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective: Standard/Interpretation AASB 9 Financial Instruments Effective for annual Expected to be reporting periods initially applied in the beginning on or after financial year ending 1 January 2017 30 June 2018 AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (and the related Clarifications)* 1 January 2018 30 June 2019 AASB 16 ‘Leases’ ** 1 January 2019 30 June 2020 Amendments to AASB 2 Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions To be determined To be determined Amendments to AASB 10 and AASB 128 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its To be determined To be determined Associate or Joint Venture Amendments to AASB 107 Disclosure Initiative 1 January 2017 30 June 2018 Amendments to AASB 112 Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses 1 January 2017 30 June 2018 *AASB 15 replaces all current guidance on revenue recognition from contracts with customers. It requires identification of discrete performance obligations within a transaction and an associated transaction price allocation to these obligations. Revenue is recognised upon satisfaction of these performance obligations, which occur when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer. Revenue received for a contract that includes a variable amount is subject to revised conditions for recognition, whereby it must be highly probable that no significant reversal of the variable component may occur when the uncertainties around its measurement are removed. The Company will first apply AASB 15 in the financial year beginning 1 July 2018 and is expected to apply the standard retrospectively, recognising the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The impact of the application of this standard is still being assessed by the Company. Any transition adjustment to retained earnings is subject to the revenue streams existing at the date of transition. ** AASB 16 replaces the current AASB 117 Leases standard and sets out a comprehensive model for identifying lease arrangements and the subsequent measurement. A contract contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time. The majority of leases from the lessee perspective within the scope of AASB 16 will require the recognition of a ‘right of use’ asset and a related lease liability, being the present value of future lease payments. This will result in an increase in the recognised assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position as well as a change in expense recognition, with interest and depreciation replacing operating lease expense. AASB 16 is effective for the Company for the annual period beginning 1 July 2019 with the option to early adopt in the financial year beginning 1 July 2018. The Company is expected to apply the standard retrospectively, recognising the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Alternative methods of calculating the ‘right of use’ asset are allowed under AASB 16 which impact the size of the transition adjustment. The Company is still evaluating which method to apply. The application of this standard is currently being assessed by the Company. Refer to Section 3.9 for Leasing. 36 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 3.1 Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards compliant with IFRS. The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 28 August 2017. 3.2 Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts or fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of AASB 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of AASB 117, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in AASB 102 or value in use in AASB 136. In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows: • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The principal accounting policies are set out below. 3.3 Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the Company: • has power over the investee; • is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and • has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above. When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Company’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including: • the size of the Company’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders; • potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other parties; • rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and • any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Company has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non- controlling interests having a deficit balance. 37 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation. The parent entity carries its investment in subsidiaries at cost less impairment (if any). 3.4 Business combinations Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date, except that: • Deferred tax assets or liabilities and liabilities or assets related to employee benefit arrangements, are recognised and measured in accordance with AASB 112 Income Taxes and AASB 19 respectively; • Liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree, or share-based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree, are measured in accordance with AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’ at the acquisition date (see note 3.12); and • Assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with AASB 5 Noncurrent Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordance with that Standard. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain. Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognised amounts of the acquiree’ s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value or, when applicable, on the basis specified in another A-IFRS. Where the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or liability is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates in accordance with AASB 139, or AASB 137 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’, as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Where a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held interests in the acquired entity are remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date (i.e. the date the Group attains control) and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognised in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss, where such treatment would be appropriate if that interest were disposed of. If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period (see above), or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date. 38 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.5 Goodwill Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of the acquisition of the business (see 3.4 above) less accumulated impairment losses, if any. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, 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 based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. On disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal. 3.6 Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The results and assets and liabilities of associates or joint ventures are incorporated in these consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting, except when the investment, or a portion thereof, is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 5. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. When the Group's share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group's interest in that associate or joint venture (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group's net investment in the associate or joint venture), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. An investment in an associate or a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture. On acquisition of the investment in an associate or a joint venture, any excess of the cost of the investment over the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the investee is recognised as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment, after reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired. The requirements of AASB 139 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with respect to the Group’s investment in an associate or a joint venture. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognised forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with AASB 136 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases. The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when the investment ceases to be an associate or a joint venture, or when the investment is classified as held for sale. When the Group retains an interest in the former associate or joint venture and the retained interest is a financial asset, the Group measures the retained interest at fair value at that date and the fair value is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition in accordance with IAS 39. The difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture at the date the equity method was discontinued, and the fair value of any retained interest and any proceeds from disposing of a part interest in the associate or joint venture is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate or joint venture. In addition, the Group accounts for all amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate or joint venture on the same basis as would be required if that associate or joint venture had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income by that associate or joint venture would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, the Group reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to profit or loss (as a reclassification adjustment) when the equity method is discontinued. 39 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The Group continues to use the equity method when an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate. There is no remeasurement to fair value upon such changes in ownership interests. When the Group reduces its ownership interest in an associate or a joint venture but the Group continues to use the equity method, the Group reclassifies to profit or loss the proportion of the gain or loss that had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income relating to that reduction in ownership interest if that gain or loss would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities. When a group entity transacts with an associate or a joint venture of the Group, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate or joint venture are recognised in the Group's consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate or joint venture that are not related to the Group. 3.7 Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. 3.7.1 Sale of goods Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the goods are delivered and title has passed, at which time all the following conditions are satisfied: • The Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; • The Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold; • The amount of revenue can be measured reliably; • It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group; and • The costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. 3.7.2 Rendering of services Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of the contract is determined as follows: • Installation fees are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the installation, determined as the proportion of the total time expected to install that has elapsed at the end of the reporting period; • Servicing fees included in the price of products sold are recognised by reference to the proportion of the total cost of providing the servicing for the product sold; and • Revenue from time and material contracts is recognised at the contractual rates as labour hours are delivered and direct expenses are incurred. The Group’s policy for recognition of revenue from construction contracts is described at 3.8 below. 3.7.3 Dividend and interest income Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably). Interest income is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Interest revenue 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 on initial recognition. 40 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.8 Construction contracts and work in progress Construction contract revenue is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end of the reporting period, measured based on the proportion of contract revenue for work performed to date relative to the estimated total contract value. Variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments are included to the extent that the amount can be measured reliably and its receipt is considered probable. When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately. When contract costs incurred to date plus recognised profits less recognised losses exceed progress billings, the surplus is shown as amounts due from customers for contract work. For contracts where progress billings exceed contract costs incurred to date plus recognised profits less recognised losses, the surplus is shown as the amounts due to customers for contract work. Amounts received before the related work is performed are included in the consolidated statement of financial position, as a liability, as advances received. Amounts billed for work performed but not yet paid by the customer are included in the consolidated statement of financial position under trade and other receivables. 3.9 Leasing Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. 3.9.1 The Group as lessee Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Group at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Group’s general policy on borrowing costs (see 3.10 below). Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. 3.10 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 3.11 Employee benefits A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably. Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits, are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. Liabilities recognised in respect of long-term employee benefits are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date. 41 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.12 Share-based payments Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. Details regarding the determination of the fair value of equity-settled share-based transactions are set out in note 31. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity-settled employee benefits reserve. Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received, except where that fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the service. 3.13 Taxation Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. 3.13.1 Current tax The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and 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 end of the reporting period. 3.13.2 Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises 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. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, 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. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period 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 assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. 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. 3.13.3 Current and deferred tax for the year Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination. 42 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.13.4 Tax consolidation The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities have formed a tax-consolidated group with effect from 1 August 2007 and are therefore taxed as a single entity from that date. The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is BSA Limited. The members of the tax-consolidated group are identified in note 19. Tax expense/income, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the members of the tax-consolidated group are recognised in the separate financial statements of the members of the tax-consolidated group using the ‘separate taxpayer within group’ approach by reference to the carrying amounts in the separate financial statements of each entity and the tax values applying under tax consolidation. Current tax liabilities and assets and deferred tax assets arising from un-used tax losses and relevant tax credits of the members of the tax- consolidated group are recognised by the Company (as head entity in the tax-consolidated group). Due to the existence of a tax funding arrangement between the entities in the tax-consolidated group, amounts are recognised as payable to or received by the Company and each member of the Group in relation to the tax contribution amounts paid or payable between the parent entity and the other members of the tax-consolidated group in accordance with the arrangement. 3.14 Property, plant and equipment Land and buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, are stated in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at cost. Depreciation on buildings is recognised in profit or loss. Freehold land is not depreciated. Fixtures and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost (other than freehold land) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets. However, when there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be obtained by the end of the lease term, assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any 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. 3.15 Intangible assets 3.15.1 Intangible assets acquired separately Intangible assets with finite lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. 3.15.2 Intangible assets acquired in a business combination Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognised separately from goodwill are initially recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost). Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately. The following intangible assets were recognised separately from goodwill acquired during business combinations: - - Customer relationships acquired during a business combination which were assessed to have a useful life of 9 years Backlog of orders acquired during business combinations which were assessed to have useful lives of 1 to 9.5 years. 43 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.16 Impairment of tangible and intangible assets excluding goodwill At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible 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). Where 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. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. 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. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Where 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 so 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 immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. 3.17 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs, including an appropriate portion of fixed and variable overhead expenses, are assigned to inventories by the method most appropriate to the particular class of inventory, with the majority being valued on the basis of weighted average cost. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. 3.18 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (where the effect of the time value of money is material). When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. 3.18.1 Warranties Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations under construction contracts are recognised at the Directors’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Group’s obligation. 3.18.2 Make Good Provisions for the estimated cost of work to comply with make good provisions in certain Group property leases are recognised at the Directors’ best estimate of the expenditure to settle the Group’s obligation. 44 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.19 Financial Assets Financial assets are classified into the specified category of ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. 3.19.1 Effective Interest Method The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees on points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments. 3.19.2 Loans and receivables Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial. 3.19.3 Impairment of financial assets Financial assets, other than those at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period of 30 days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables. For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. 3.20 Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group 3.20.1 Classification as debt or equity Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. 3.20.2 Equity instruments An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. 3.20.3 Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as ‘other financial liabilities’. 45 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.20.4 Other Financial Liabilities Other financial liabilities, including borrowings and trade and other payables, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying on initial recognition. 3.21 Derivative financial instruments From time to time the Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk, including interest rate swaps. Further details of derivative financial instruments are disclosed in note 35. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. 3.21.1 Cash flow hedges The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss, and is included in the ‘other gains and losses’ line item. Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item is recognised in profit or loss, in the same line of the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as the recognised hedged item. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously accumulated in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the non-financial asset or non-financial liability. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the Group revokes the hedging relationship, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss accumulated in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 3.22 Goods and services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except: i. Where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or ii. For receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables. Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified within operating cash flows. 46 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. 4.1 Key sources of estimation uncertainty The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. 4.1.1 Contracts - estimates to complete Construction contracts are accounted for as per 3.8. Inherent in the assessment of profitability of each contract is the estimate to complete. This estimate requires the Directors to assess the conduct of the contract to date and the expected cost to complete the contract. In addition, where appropriate, Management and the Directors assess the probability of recovery of variations within the contract estimates. Variations in contract work and claims are included to the extent that the amount can be measured reliably and its receipt is considered probable. Claims and variations can be both approved and not approved by the customer. Where the claim and/or variation are not approved by the customer, estimates are made in relation to the claim and/or variation position and management assesses the recovery at each reporting period. 4.1.2 Recoverability of goodwill Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the directors to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. The carrying amount of goodwill at 30 June 2017 was $15,185,000 (30 June 2016: $15,185,000). See note 17 for details. 4.1.3 Payroll Tax Liability BSA has previously advised the market about a possible payroll-tax liability with the NSW Office of State Revenue (OSR). BSA has increased the provision in its FY2017 accounts to $5,236,000 (FY2016 $2,736,000) as recognition of settlement up to 30 June 2016 as agreed with NSW OSR. The Directors' estimate of any remaining payroll tax liability for FY2017 has been provided for in the financial statements. See Note 25 for details. 47 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 5 REVENUE The following is an analysis of the Group's revenue (excluding investment revenue - see note 6).

The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is BSA Limited. The members of the tax- consolidated group are identified in note 19. Tax expense/income, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the members of the tax-consolidated group are recognised in the separate financial statements of the members of the tax-consolidated group using the 'separate taxpayer within group' approach by reference to the carrying amounts in the separate financial statements of each entity and the tax values applying under tax consolidation. Current tax liabilities and assets and deferred tax assets arising from un-used tax losses and relevant tax credits of the members of the tax-consolidated group are recognised by the Company (as head entity in the tax-consolidated group). Due to the existence of a tax funding arrangement between the entities in the tax-consolidated group, amounts are recognised as payable to or received by the Company and each member of the Group in relation to the tax contribution amounts paid or payable between the parent entity and the other members of the tax-consolidated group in accordance with the arrangement.

NOTE 31 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (a) Employee Option Plan The establishment of the BSA Limited Employee Option Plan was approved by shareholders at the 2004 AGM. Staff eligible to participate are those who are full time or permanent part-time employees of any company in the Group, including an Executive Director and Non-Executive Director of the company and whom the Board of Directors has sole discretion to determine to be eligible to participate but does not include a person who has a relevant interest in greater than 5% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company. The exercise price and exercise period applicable to any options to be offered under the Option Plan will, at or before the time of issuing an invitation to eligible employees to subscribe for options, be determined by the Board in its absolute discretion. Subject to any restrictions in the Listing Rules or the Corporations Act 2001, the Board may in its absolute discretion impose on the options such other terms as it considers appropriate. As soon as practicable after receipt of a valid notice of exercise of an option together with the exercise price the Company will allot the appropriate number of ordinary shares. Any shares issued on the exercise of the options granted pursuant to the resolution will be officially quoted and will rank equally with all other shares on issue in the Company and all the rights and entitlements of the holders in respect of those shares will be identical to the rights and entitlements of the holders of the currently issued shares in the Company. Options can only be exercised after three years if the employee remains in the employment of the Company and the option will then expire two years after this date. If the employee terminates their employment within the three years, the option is exercisable for twelve months from the date after termination. If the Company is subject to a takeover the option will vest and be exercisable for a period of three months. Options may not be transferred, though prior to issue a nominee may be advised for consideration by the Board. There were no options outstanding at 30 June 2017 (2016: Nil). Fair value of options granted There have been no options granted since 25 November 2004 under this scheme. As referred to in the Remuneration Report on page 19, 78,200 options previously granted in connection with rights granted under the BSA Performance Rights Plan, as a consequence of the 2014 captial raising, were exercised during the year. There is no employee benefits expense in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income (2016: nil), which relates to equity-settled share-based payment transactions. 73 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 31 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (CONTINUED) (b) Employee Share Scheme A scheme under which shares were issued by the Company to employees for no cash consideration was ratified by shareholders at the 2004 AGM. All permanent employees (including Executive Directors) who were continuously employed by the consolidated entity for a period of at least one year were eligible to participate in the scheme. Employees could elect not to participate in the scheme. Under the scheme, eligible employees were offered $1,000 worth of fully-paid ordinary shares in BSA Limited for the Year Ended 30 June 2004 for no cash consideration. The market value of shares issued under the scheme, measured as the weighted average market price on the day of issue of the shares, was recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as share capital and as part of employee benefit cost. Offers under the scheme are at the discretion of the Company. No offers were made to any director or employee of BSA Limited during the year ended 30 June 2017 (2016: Nil). Shares under the scheme may not be sold until the earlier of three years after issue or cessation of employment with the consolidated entity. In all other aspects the shares rank equally with other fully-paid ordinary shares on issue (see note 26(c)). The number of shares issued to participants in the scheme is the offered amount divided by the weighted average price at which the Company's shares are traded on the Australian Stock Exchange during the five trading days immediately before the date of the offer. (c) Executive Securities Plan The establishment of the BSA Executive Securities Plan was approved by shareholders at the 2005 AGM. The Plan was established as a mechanism to provide the Company's key executives with a direct equity interest in the Company to better align them with the shareholders. The number of securities to be offered and the time at which securities may be offered from time to time to executives and the price and terms of payment, shall be determined by the Board in its discretion. The Board may at such times as it determines invite any executive to be a member of the Plan. This plan provided for the Company to provide loans to executives to acquire shares. The maximum amount of any loan is not to exceed the total subscription price for the shares applied for. The terms of the loan included a provision that no interest is payable by the Borrower under the Loan Agreement. All shares are held in escrow until loans are fully repaid. An executive must not sell, mortgage, charge, assign or otherwise dispose of or encumber any shares before payment or repayment of any loan outstanding to the Company. Subject to this restriction and to the terms of the loan from the Company (if any), an executive shall from the Date of Allotment, be the absolute beneficial owner of the shares. Unless the Directors of the Company otherwise provide in the terms of any invitation, all Plan Shares shall rank for dividends declared on or after the Date of Allotment and shall in all respects rank equally with and have the same rights and entitlements as all other fully paid ordinary shares of the Company. No offers were made under the Executive Securities Plan to any Directors or employees of BSA Limited during the year ended 30 June 2017. Under the Loan Agreement, the borrower shall repay the balance outstanding of the Outstanding Principal when the borrower ceases to be an employee or Director of the Lender. BSA Limited has adopted the policy of having a rolling three year maturity date for all Executives who do not have a termed employment contract. Set out below are summaries of securities accepted under the plan: Consolidated and parent entity Issue Price Balance at Start Granted During Released from Escrow Balance in Escrow Grant Date Expiry Date (cents) of the Year n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a 0.23 0.63 0.68 0.68 0.68 0.10 Number 700,000 1,600,000 150,000 200,000 400,000 1,700,000 4,750,000 13 Oct 2006 19 Jul 2007 11 Sep 2007 13 Sep 2007 14 Dec 2007 10 Feb 2009 Total 74 the Year Number - - - - - - - During the Year at End of the Year Number - - - - - - - Number 700,000 1,600,000 150,000 200,000 400,000 1,700,000 4,750,000 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 31 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (CONTINUED) (d) Employee Performance Rights Plan At the AGM held on 25 November 2008, shareholders approved the introduction of the BSA Employee Performance Rights Plan. This incentive plan is designed to increase the motivation of eligible key staff and to create a stronger link between increasing shareholder value and employee reward. To achieve its corporate objectives, the Company needs to attract and retain key staff. The Board believes that awards made to selected eligible employees under this plan: • • • • • Provide an incentive for the creation of, and focus on, shareholder wealth; Enable the Company to recruit and retain the talented people needed to achieve the Company’s business objectives; Link the reward of key staff with the achievement of strategic goals and the performance of the Company; Align the financial interests of participants with those of Company shareholders; and Ensure the remuneration packages of employees are consistent with market practice. Vesting of rights or shares under this Plan requires the achievement of appropriate perfomance or service hurdles to be determined by the Board: (i) Service condition of a specified period; or (ii) The Company’s performance as measured by earnings per share (EPS), being the EPS for the relevant Measurement Period as determined by the Board having regard to the financial statements. Certain growth in EPS for the shares must be attained in respect of each Measurement Period and pro-rata in respect of the initial Measurement Period. The Company must achieve these performance conditions before the rights vest. Once rights have been exercised by an eligible employee (subject to relevant service or performance conditions being met), the Company may make non-refundable contributions to either fund the purchase of a new plan share, or to acquire on the ASX existing shares and transfer these to an eligible employee. The specific terms of a particular grant, including any performance conditions, will be contained in the invitation and associated documentation sent to the eligible employee. A right granted to a participant is not transferable and may not otherwise be dealt with, except with the Board’s approval, or by operation of law on death or legal incapacity. Rights to acquire shares are not exercisable until the end of the final measurement period, and until those rights have satisfied all vesting conditions and any performance hurdles established by the Board. This is subject to a number of exceptions (including death, cessation of employment, takeovers and schemes of arrangement). The rights will have a specified life determined by the Board. All grants of rights will have a life terminating five (5) years after the grant date or such other date as determined by the Board. On or after the end of the final measurement period and provided any performance hurdle prescribed by the Board has been achieved and, where applicable, to the extent it has been achieved, the plan participant may then acquire shares by exercising the rights. A right lapses if the vesting conditions are not met. 75 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 31 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (CONTINUED) Consolidated and parent entity Grant Date Exercise Date Expiry Date Exercise Price (cents) 14 Nov 11 14 Nov 14 14 Nov 16 25 Nov 14 30 Jun 15 25 Nov 17 29 Nov 16 6 Feb 17 29 Nov 21 29 Nov 16 1 Sep 17 29 Nov 21 - - - - Balance at Start of the Year Under Right Balance at Start of the Year Under Option Granted During the Year Under Right Granted During the Year Under Option Exercised During the Year Under Right Exercised During the Year Under Option Cancelled During the Year Under Right Cancelled During the Year Under Option Balance in Escrow at End of the Year Under Right Balance in Escrow at End of the Year Under Option Number Number Number Number Number Number Number Number Number Number 621,000 422,280 1,116,667 - - - - 90,322 - - - 200,000 - - - - - (115,000) (78,200) (506,000) (344,080) - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1,116,667 90,322 200,000 (115,000) (78,200) (506,000) (344,080) 1,406,989 - - - - - Total 1,737,667 422,280 290,322 In addition, the Board has approved that Nicholas Yates be awarded 142,857 performance rights with an exercised price of $0.35 per right, but subject to a tenure of 12 months from 31 January 2017 to 31 January 2018.

This note describes the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements. There have been no substantive changes in the Group’s exposure to financial instrument risks, its objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note. The principal financial instruments from which financial instrument risk arises are: - Trade receivables; - Cash at bank; - Bank overdrafts; - Trade and other payables; and - Borrowings. The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group’s finance function. The Group’s risk management policies and objectives are therefore designed to minimise the potential impacts of these risks on the results of the Group where such impacts may be material. The Board receives monthly reports from the Finance Department through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group’s competitiveness and flexibility. 80 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 NOTE 35 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (b) Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that the other party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge their obligation resulting in the Group incurring a financial loss. This usually occurs when debtors fail to settle their obligations owing to the Group. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers. The Group does not have significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if they are related entities. Concentration of credit risk to the largest counterparty did not exceed 9% of gross monetary assets at balance date. Concentration of credit risk to any other counterparty did not exceed 9% of gross monetary assets at balance date. The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is as follows: Receivables 2017 $’000 101,291 101,291 Included in loans and receivables, the most significant customer accounts for 6.6% of trade receivables at 30 June 2017 (2016: 5.9%). The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date by country is as follows: Australia 2017 $’000 101,291 101,291 The maximum exposure to credit risk for cash and trade receivables at balance date by type of customer is as follows: BSA | Connect BSA | Build BSA | Maintain 2017 $’000 35,792 41,628 23,871 101,291 The Group's most significant customer, a BSA | Build customer, accounts for $4,210,000 of trade receivables at 30 June 2017. At 30 June 2016, the Group's most significant customer was a BSA | Build customer which accounted for $3,665,000. All major customers are credit worthy, as detailed above. The Group has significant concentration of credit risk as all loans and lease liabilities are with the one financial institution.

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The table below sets out details of additional undrawn facilities that the Group has at its disposal to further reduce liquidity risk.

The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are at floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curves at the end of the reporting period. The contractual maturity is based on the earliest date on which the Group may be required to pay. The table below includes the weighted average effective interest rate and a reconciliation to the carrying amount in the Statement of Financial Position as an example of summary quantitative data about exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period that an entity may provide internally to management personnel.

Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Management actively manage the risk by activating various options including utilising a mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings and by using interest rate swap contracts. As at 30 June 2017 there were no bank borrowings. NOTE 36 CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT In managing its capital, the Group’s primary objective is to ensure its continued ability to provide a consistent return for its equity shareholders through a combination of capital growth and distributions. In order to achieve this objective, the Group seeks to maintain a gearing ratio that balances risks and returns at an acceptable level and also to maintain a sufficient funding base to enable the Group to meet its working capital and strategic investment needs. In making decisions to adjust its capital structure to achieve these aims, either through altering its dividend policy, new share issues or the reduction of debt, the Group considers not only its short-term position but also its long-term operational and strategic objectives. It is the Group’s policy to review its gearing ratio to ensure adequate funds are available to meet its obligations. The Group’s gearing ratio at the balance sheet date is shown below : Gearing ratios Net (cash) / debt Total equity Total Gearing Ratio 2017 $’000 (13,505) 45,444 (29.72%) Consolidated 2016 $’000 (18,501) 41,496 (44.59%) Gearing levels were maintained at a healthy position at 30 June 2017. The net cash position was impacted by late receipts in BSA | Build and cash outgoings to close out the nRAH project in the second half not recovered by 30 June 2017. It is the Board's intention to monitor gearing levels going forward to ensure flexibility. There have been no changes to the Group's capital management objectives, policies and processes in the year nor has there been any change in what the Group considers to be its capital.

(ii) On 27 June 2016 the Company received a certificate of finding under section 27J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 from Innovation Australia. The certificate of finding outlines Innovation Australia’s view that none of the activities claimed in previous years by BSA as Research and Development are “Core R&D activities” for the purpose of the Income Tax Assessment Acts. BSA has filed a section 30C internal review of the section 27J finding. In the event that BSA is unsuccessful in challenging the finding through appropriate mechanisms, the Company may be denied tax deductions previously claimed totalling approximately $2 million (tax effected) of tax relating to prior years tax concessions claimed. Based on expert advice the directors are of the opinion that the activities fall within the legislative requirements for R&D claims to be made under the Income Tax Assessment Acts, that the documents submitted to Innovation Australia support and are consistent with the claims made and that therefore BSA is in a defendable position against the Innovation Australia finding under s27J. Accordingly, BSA has not made any provision in relation to this matter in these financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: (i) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and (ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report for the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation. Member of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited 87 87 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT Key Audit Matter How the scope of our audit responded to the Key Audit Matter Recognition of revenue Our procedures included, amongst others: • • • Refer to note 3.8 ‘Construction contracts and work in progress’, note 4 ’Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty’, note 5 ‘Revenue’, and note 29 ‘Segment Information’. The Group's primary source of revenue is from construction projects. Revenue is derived from a number of contracts and recognised based on the stage of completion of each contract. Stage of completion of the construction work is determined with reference to the work completed, i.e. the percentage of work performed up to the reporting date with respect to the total anticipated contract work to be performed. The recognition of revenue is dependent on the following key factors: • • • • determination of stage of completion; estimation of total contract revenue and contract cost including the estimation of cost contingencies; determination of contractual entitlement and assessment of the probability of customer approval of variations and acceptance of claims; and estimation of project completion date. We focused on revenue as a key audit matter due to the number and type of estimation events over the course of a contract life, and the unique nature of individual contract conditions leading to complex and judgemental revenue recognition from contracts. - - Evaluating management’s processes and controls in respect of the recognition of contract revenue. As part of this process we tested key controls including: the project review process conducted by management at the tendering phase; the preparation, management review and authorisation of monthly contract status reports for a sample of contracts; the estimation and review of costs to complete; and project the management on a monthly basis. undertaken by reviews - - Attending a sample of project review meetings to enhance our understanding of the Group’s contracting processes, the consistency of their application, and to discuss with project management the key risks and opportunities in relation to individual contracts. Selecting a sample of contracts for testing using a combination of quantitative and qualitative factors which may indicate that a greater level of judgement is required in recognising revenue including: - - - - - - - and claims unapproved contract history; significant variations; delay risk; potential impact and likelihood of risk events; new contracts for which a material amount of revenue was recognised during the financial year; high-value contracts; and loss-making contracts. • For the sample of contracts selected, performing the following procedures: - - - - - to these obtaining an understanding of the contract terms and conditions and inspecting signed contracts to evaluate whether contract terms were reflected in management’s estimate of forecast costs and revenue; testing a sample of costs incurred to date and supporting agreeing documentation; assessing through enquiry of management the current project status against the original budget; challenging the forecast costs to complete through enquiry of project managers and finance personnel in respect of a sample of contracts, as well as inspection of supporting documentation for contracted costs; testing on a sample basis contractual entitlement, claims variations recognised in contract revenue through agreement to supporting documentation and and 88 88 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT - - contracts by understanding the contract progress to date against contract terms; evaluating on a sample basis significant exposures to liquidated damages for late delivery of contract works; and evaluating contract performance in the period since year end to determine if any adjustments to amounts recognised in the year ended 30 June 2017 were required. • Assessing the appropriateness of the disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included, amongst others: • • • • • • Evaluating management’s processes and controls in respect of the collectability of trade receivables and amounts due from customers under construction contracts; Assessing on a sample basis the aged debtor and work in progress reports at year end and agreeing to the subsequent receipt of cash; Evaluating on a sample basis for the trade receivable balances that were not collected prior to the issue of the financial statements, the probability of recovery of outstanding amounts by reference to the status of contract negotiations, correspondence with the customers, external and internal legal opinions, historical supporting documentation; recoveries other and Testing on a sample basis that amounts due from customers under construction contracts at year end were subsequently billed to the customer; For the amounts due from customers under construction contracts, amounts that were not billed to the customer by the end of our audit, challenging management’s assessment of the recoverability of these amounts via inquiry of management, inspection of internal and external legal advice; and Assessing the appropriateness of the disclosures in the financial statements. Collectability of trade receivables and amounts due construction customers under contracts from Refer to note 34 ‘Financial Instruments’ and note 14 ‘Trade and other receivables’ and note 21 ‘Amounts due from (to) customers under construction contracts’. The Group recognises amounts due from customers under construction contracts in respect of the progressive valuation of work completed as well as trade receivables which represent amounts invoiced to customers. Credit risk and collectability of trade receivables are subject to estimation and judgement and are required to be monitored by management on an ongoing basis. Amounts due from customers under construction contracts (or work in progress) are amounts due to the Group from customers that have not been invoiced. Some of these project receivables are made up of claims and variations, both approved and not approved by the customer. Management assesses the likelihood of recovery prior to recognising the amount due from the customer. We focused on this area as a key audit matter due to the the judgement applied when determining collectability of trade receivables and amounts due from customers under construction contracts. Litigation and claims Our procedures included, amongst others: Refer to note 25 ‘Provisions’ and note 38 ‘Contingent Liabilities’. • Obtaining the Group’s litigation reports and making enquiries about the status of litigation matters with Group management and external legal advisors. The Group is party to legal proceedings brought by third parties as a result of normal business operations. Management have assessed each of these legal matters and determined, with the assistance of external legal counsel where relevant, whether there is a requirement to provide for expected exposures or disclose a contingent liability in the financial report. • • We focused on this area as a key audit matter due to the judgement applied when determining the likely settlement of litigation and claims. Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance to identify their consideration of legal relevant and correspondence proceedings as between the Group and its external legal advisors; Assessing management’s determination of the provisions recorded for potential litigation losses; and 89 89 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT • Assessing the appropriateness of the disclosures in the financial statements. Other Information The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not and will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s internal control. • • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. 90 90 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on the Remuneration Report Opinion on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included on pages 17 to 25 of the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2017. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of BSA Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2017, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Responsibilities The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
