BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 3 CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Michael Givoni Chairman Firstly, I would like to acknowledge the unprecedented events of 2020 with the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, we are all experiencing significant adjustments in our daily lives. At BSA Limited, support for all of our stakeholders (workforce, customers, suppliers, subcontractors and shareholders), proactive risk management and adapting to changing business needs has been an overriding priority. I would like to thank the Executive Leadership Team for their dedication in providing and maintaining a safe working environment, rising to the challenges faced from COVID-19 and remaining operational throughout. BSA simplified its organisational structure during FY2020 to align the business in terms of clients and capability. BSA | Maintain and BSA | Build | Fire were integrated into BSA | Advanced Property Solutions (“APS”) and BSA | Connect repositioned to BSA | Communication & Utility Infrastructure (“CUI”) to better reflect the broadening of our service offering to our preferred markets. On 13 August 2019 the BSA | Build | HVAC Major Projects was divested to Fredon Air Pty Ltd and during the second half of the year all residual steps in the transaction were concluded. Beginning in September 2019, a review of BSA’s financing facilities was undertaken as a result of operational changes associated with the divestment. On 1 May 2020, BSA successfully refinanced its bank lending facilities, for three years, with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) on improved terms. We look forward to forging a strong and prosperous relationship with CBA in the years ahead and believe the new facilities position the business well for future growth. In April 2020, faced with the challenging circumstances associated with COVID-19, the Directors of BSA Limited provided the market with a trading update, announcing the business was achieving internal forecasts and continued to tender for significant volumes of new work. Due to the significant level of uncertainty prevailing at that time, the Board felt it prudent to retract guidance and delay the payment of the dividend until greater stability returned to the market. On 16 June 2020, we announced that we would bring forward the previously deferred payment of the FY2020 interim dividend to early July 2020 and confirmed EBITDA guidance of $21m - $23m. Pleasingly the end of financial year results show that we have achieved the higher end of our revised guidance with strong cash backing and a solid balance sheet. 2020 KEY HIGHLIGHTS* $490.4 million Revenue $23.0 million EBITDA $7.8 million Net Profit * from Continuing Operations (refer page 11) 4 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NorthConnex Tunnel Construction 90 metres below the surface.

Graeme Barclay announced his retirement from the BSA Board and stepped down on 16 December 2019.

Advanced Property Solutions (APS) finalised the divestment in BSA | Build | HVAC Major projects during the financial year in line with our stated strategy. BSA | APS, specifically in maintenance services, was impacted due to curtailed client spend on discretionary work, restricted site access and enforced workplace shutdowns.

As the pandemic evolves, we will continue to innovate and adapt to ensure a safe return to the workplace in line with public health orders across the states and territories. As a company, I am immensely proud of how we reacted, stood together and supported each other through these unprecedented times that have impacted many aspects of our personal and professional lives. On operational safety we successfully undertook a number of initiatives during the year centred on the pillars of: • Systems • Risk Management (Critical Risk Control) • HSE Capability • Health and Wellbeing.

The Company’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and Senior Executives of the Company is as follows and is set out under the following main headings: A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration Details of remuneration Service agreements Cash bonuses Share-based compensation Remuneration Consultants B. C. D. E. F. The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001. A. PRINCIPLES USED TO DETERMINE THE NATURE AND AMOUNT OF REMUNERATION The objective of the Group’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. 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: In consultation with external remuneration consultants, the Group has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the organisation. Alignment to shareholders’ interests: • 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. Alignment to program participants’ interests: • • • • Rewards capability and experience; Reflects competitive reward for contribution to financial performance; Provides a clear structure for earning rewards; and Provides recognition for contribution. 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.

Based on continuing operations Non-Executive Directors Executive Pay Fees and payments to Non-Executive Directors reflect the demands The Executive pay and reward framework has three components: that are made on, and the responsibilities of, the Directors. The Chairman’s fees are determined independently to the fees of Non-Executive Directors based on the Director’s experience and comparative roles in the external market. The Chairman is not present at any discussions relating to determination of his own remuneration. Directors’ and Chairman’s Fees The current base remuneration for Directors was last reviewed and determined on 26 June 2012, therefore there has been no increase in the base remuneration paid to a Director for eight years. Directors’ fees are inclusive of superannuation and include the requirement to sit on two or more Board committees for the duration of their tenure. A Director’s expected time commitment is a minimum ten hours per month. Directors are reimbursed actual expenses or paid a per diem allowance for attendance at the monthly meetings. Non-Executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The maximum currently stands at $600,000 per annum and was last approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 26 November 2007. There has been no change to the aggregate fee pool for Non-Executive Directors for approximately 11 • • • Base pay and benefits, including superannuation; Short-term performance incentives; and Long-term incentives principally through participation in the performance rights plan. The combination of these components comprises the executive’s total remuneration. Base Pay Base pay is structured as a total employment cost package which may be delivered as a combination of cash and prescribed non-financial benefits at the executives’ discretion. Executives are offered a competitive base pay that comprises the fixed component of pay and rewards. Base pay for Senior Executives is reviewed annually to ensure the executive’s pay is competitive with the market and reflects the responsibilities of the position. An executive’s pay is also reviewed on promotion. There are no guaranteed base pay increases included in the Senior Executive terms of employment. Benefits Executives receive benefits including allowances. years. The following fees have applied during the year to 30 June 2020: Retirement Benefits Base fees Chairman Other Non-Executive Directors All employees are eligible to participate in the Company’s default superannuation fund.

This has led to the proportions of remuneration related to performance varying between individuals. The Remuneration Committee has set these bonuses to encourage achievement of specific goals that have been given a high level of importance to the future growth and profitability of the consolidated Group. The Remuneration Committee will review the performance bonuses to gauge their effectiveness against achievement of the set goals, and adjust future years’ incentives as they see fit. C.

The letter summarises the Board policies and terms, including compensation, relevant to the office of Director.

Each of these agreements provide for the provision of performance-related cash bonuses, other benefits, car allowances, and participation, when eligible, in the BSA Employee Performance Rights Plan. Other major provisions of the agreements relating to remuneration are set out below. Executives are on contracts with no fixed end date.

REMUNERATION CONSULTANTS During the year ended 30 June 2020, the Board continued to consider the advice obtained from Godfrey Remuneration Group (GRG) as independent advisor in relation to the current structure of the Executive Performance Rights Plan and to the implementation of a Fee Salary Sacrifice Plan for Non-Executive Directors. The Board implemented the Fee Salary Sacrifice Plan following its approval at the 2017 AGM. No amendments have been made to the Executive Performance Rights Plan. The continuing engagement of GRG during the year 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 to 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 total consideration payable by the company to GRG for the provision of the remuneration recommendations in the 2020 financial year was $21,250 (2019: $17,500).

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 25. NOTE 2 APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS 2.1 New and amended accounting standards adopted by the Group AASB 16 Leases (AASB 16) In the current year, the Group has applied AASB 16 Leases on a modified retrospective basis which came into effect 1 July 2019. Details of the new requirements of AASB 16 as well as the impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements are described below. AASB 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to account for leases, excluding those that are classified as short-term leases or leases for low value assets, under a single on-balance sheet model similar to the accounting for finance leases under AASB 117 Leases (AASB 117). Lessor accounting under AASB 16 is substantially unchanged from previous accounting under AASB 117 and has no material impact to the Group. AASB 16 requires contracts that contain leases for terms of more than 12 months to be recognised as assets measured as the present value of the expected future lease payments under the lease and any associated end of lease costs (make good) or upfront incentives as a liability measured by the present value of future lease payments and interest implicit in the lease. Over the term of the lease, the lease asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term while the liability is reduced as payments are made and increased by applicable interest amounts. Prior to AASB 16, operating lease payments were expensed without recognition of an asset or liability for the total amounts payable over the lease term. The Group applied the practical expedient in AASB 16 Appendix paragraph C3 that enables the Group to grandfather previous assessments, such that only leases that are leases on date of transition on 1 July 2019 are required to be assessed as a lease under AASB 16. The Group also applied a practical expedient for short term leases with an aggregate expense of $77,000 recognised in the year. Impact on application of AASB 16 The Group has applied AASB 16, using the modified approach, with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard adjusted in the opening balance of equity and comparative figures are therefore not restated. The opening equity adjustment due to the application of the new standard is analysed by financial statement line item below. As reported AASB 16 Transition Opening Balance 30 June 2019 Adjustments $'000 $'000 1 July 2019 $'000 Impact on assets and equity at 1 July 2019: Property, plant and equipment (leased assets) Deferred tax assets Total net assets impact Borrowings - lease liabilities Provisions - lease incentives Total liabilities impact Accumulated losses Total equity impact 4,127 8,982 13,109 3,907 1,033 4,940 (74,032) (74,032) 7,962 28 7,990 8,399 (1,033) 7,366 624 624 12,089 9,010 21,099 12,306 - 12,306 (73,408) (73,408) 31 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 2 APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS (CONTINUED) Impact on the consolidated statement of profit and loss Had AASB 16 Leases not been applied and the financial statements were still produced under previous guidance, AASB 16 Leases and related interpretations, the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2020 would have been impacted as follows: • the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020 would be impacted by reversing $13.5 million of adjustments to total assets and $14.4 million to total liabilities; • the effect on depreciation, interest and occupancy expenses for the 12 months to 30 June 2020 would be $3.6 million, $0.5 million and $(3.8) million, respectively; and • the effect on both basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share was insignificant. Right of Use Liabilities On adoption of AASB 16, the Group recognised lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as ‘operating leases’ under the principles of AASB 117 Leases. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the Group’s incremental borrowing rate as of 1 July 2019. The Group's weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities as at 1 July 2019 was 5.5%. 1 July 2019 $'000 9,516 8,442 3,907 (43) 12,306 1 July 2019 $'000 2,403 9,903 12,306 1 July 2019 $'000 6,113 5,976 12,089 30 June 2020 $'000 5,384 8,966 14,350 30 June 2020 $'000 7,208 6,269 13,477 Operating lease commitments as at 30 June 2019 Discounted using Group's incremental borrowing rate at date of initial application Add: finance leases recognised as at 30 June 2019 Less: short-term lease recognised on straight-line basis as expense Lease liability recognised as at 1 July 2019 Of which were: Current lease liabilities Non-current lease liabilities Right of Use Assets The recognised right-of-use assets relate to the following types of assets Of which were: Properties Motor vehicles Total right-of-use assets 32 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 2 APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS (CONTINUED) 2.1 New and amended accounting standards adopted by the group (continued) Practical expedients Other than the adoption of AASB 16 Leases, no new standards or amendments to accounting standard applicable to reporting periods commencing after 1 July 2019 are expected to have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements. While these standards introduce new disclosure requirements, they do not materially affect the Group’s accounting policies or any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The Group has used the following practical expedients as permitted under AASB 16: • • • • the use of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics; previous assessments on whether leases are onerous were relied upon; initial direct costs excluded in the measurement of the right-of-use asset on date of initial application; and operating leases with remaining lease terms of less than 12 months expensed as short term leases; The Group also elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease at the date of initial application. For contracts executed before 1 July 2019, the Group relied on its assessment made under AASB 117 and Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease. Variable lease payments No lease payments are based on variables that require estimation. 2.2 Accounting policies newly applied The following new or amended policies were applied in this financial report: Lease recognition Contracts are assessed as containing a lease where right of control over identifiable assets over a period of time is conveyed in exchange for consideration. For such leases, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a right-of-use liability unless the lease is short term or of minor value where lease payments are recorded as an operating expense evenly over the lease. The Group's lease portfolio is extensive with leases mainly for business premises, plant equipment and motor vehicles. Presentation and measurement of right of use assets Right of use assets recognised by the Group are presented within Property, Plant and Equipment along with owned assets by asset class. Initially, the right-of- use asset is measured with reference to the value determined for the associated right-of-use liability (refer below) less direct costs and any lease incentives. Expected end of lease costs such as make good are included in the right-of-use asset value determined at lease inception. Over the lease term (including extended terms where judged appropriate) right-of-use assets are depreciated and periodically assessed for impairment. Depreciation begins when control of the leased asset by the Group occurs up until the date when control ends. In the event of changes to the lease, the right- of-use asset is remeasured with reference to the re-measurement of the right-of-use liability and the other factors considered at inception or new factors. Presentation and measurement of right of use liabilities Right of use liabilities recognised by the Group are presented within borrowings (current and non-current). Initially the right-of-use liability is measured as the present value of future lease payments discounted using an interest rate implicit in the lease or the Group's incremental borrowing rate. Future lease payments may be influenced by lease incentives, incremental increases during the lease term, extension options (where reasonably certain that will occur) and residual value guarantees expected to be paid. Over the lease term, payments made reduce the right-of-use liability balance while applicable interest is recognised monthly as interest expense and increases the liability balance. Remeasurement of the right of use liabilities occurs when substantive elements of the lease change such as changes to the lease term or variation to amounts payable under the lease. 2.3 Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted At the date of authorisation of the financial report, the Standards and Interpretations that were issued but not yet effective are listed below. • AASB 2014-10 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an investor and its Associate or Joint Venture [AASB 10 & AASB 128]’, AASB 2015-10 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Effective Date of Amendments to AASB 10 and AASB 128’ and AASB 2017-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Effective Date of Amendments to AASB 10 and AASB 128 and Editorial Corrections” The directors of the Group do not anticipate that the application of these amendments, will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. 33 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 3.1 Statement of compliance These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations, and comply with other requirements of the law. The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Group. For the purpose of preparing consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity. Accounting Standards include Australian Accounting Standards. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes of the Company and the Group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’). The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 24 August 2020. 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 116, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in AASB 2 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. 34 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 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. 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 Goodwill Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of the acquisition of the business 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. 3.5 Revenue recognition Revenue is recognised when control is transferred at an amount that is highly probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. 3.5.1 Services revenue The Group performs installation and maintenance services for a variety of different industries. Contracts entered into can cover installation and servicing of related assets which may involve various different processes. The total transaction price is allocated across each service or performance obligation and, where linked, the construction of the relevant asset. The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on contracted prices. The total transaction price may include variable consideration. 3.5.2 Installation and servicing fees Performance obligations are fulfilled at a point in time as the benefits provided to our customers under this category of work type do not transfer to the customer until the completion of the service and as such revenue is recognised upon completion. Customers are in general invoiced on a monthly basis for an amount that is calculated on either a schedule of rates or a cost plus basis that are aligned with the stand alone selling prices for each performance obligation. Payment is received following invoice on normal commercial terms. 35 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.5.3 Construction revenue The Group provides the design and installation of building services for commercial and industrial buildings including mechanical services, air conditioning, heating and ventilation, refrigeration and fire services. Contracts entered into may be for the construction of one or several separate inter-linked pieces of large infrastructure. The construction of each individual piece of infrastructure is generally taken to be one performance obligation. Where contracts are entered for the building of several projects the total transaction price is allocated across each project based on stand-alone selling prices. The transaction price is normally fixed at the start of the project. It is normal practice for contracts to include bonus and penalty elements based on timely construction or other performance criteria known as variable consideration, discussed below. The performance obligation is fulfilled over time and as such revenue is recognised over time. As work is performed on the assets being constructed they are controlled by the customer and have no alternative use to the Group, with the Group having a right to payment for performance to date. Generally, contracts identify various inter-linked activities required in the construction process. Revenue is recognised on an input basis. Revenue earned is typically invoiced monthly or in some cases on achievement of milestones or to match major capital outlay. Invoices are paid on normal commercial terms, which may include the customer withholding a retention amount until finalisation of the construction. Certain construction projects entered into receive payment prior to work being performed in which case revenue is deferred on the consolidated statement of financial position. 3.5.4 Variable consideration It is common for contracts to include performance bonuses or penalties assessed against the timeliness or cost effectiveness of work completed or other performance related KPIs. Where consideration in respect of a contract is variable, the expected value of revenue is recognised when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is highly probable of being resolved (known as constraint requirements). The Group assesses the constraint requirements on a periodic basis when estimating the variable consideration to be included in the transaction price. The estimate is based on all available information including historic performance. Where modifications in design or contract requirements are entered into, the transaction price is updated to reflect these. Where the price of the modification has not been confirmed, an estimate is made of the amount of revenue to recognise whilst also considering the constraint requirement. 3.5.5 Contract fulfilment costs Costs incurred prior to the commencement of a contract may arise due to mobilisation/site setup costs, feasibility studies, environmental impact studies and preliminary design activities as these are costs incurred to fulfil a contract. Where these costs are expected to be recovered, they are capitalised and amortised over the course of the contract consistent with the transfer of service to the customer. Where the costs, or a portion of these costs, are reimbursed by the customer, the amount received is recognised as deferred revenue and allocated to the performance obligations within the contract and recognised as revenue over the course of the contract. 3.5.6 Financing components The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer is significant and therefore there aren't expected to be financing components within the contracts. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money. 3.5.7 Loss making contracts A provision is made for the difference between the expected cost of fulfilling a contract and the expected unearned portion of the transaction price where the forecast costs are greater than the forecast revenue. 3.5.8 Interest revenue Interest revenue is recognised on an accruals basis. 3.5.9 Dividend income Dividend income is recognised when the dividend is declared. 3.5.10 Government grants Amounts received in the form of government grants are recognised as other income when received, unless specific conditions apply in which case the grant income is recognised as and when such performance conditions are met. 36 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.6 Contract assets and liabilities When the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are 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 costs incurred for work performed to date relative to the estimated total contract costs, except where this would not be representative of the stage of completion. 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 the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. 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. 3.7 Right of use assets and liabilities Lease recognition Contracts are assessed as containing a lease where right of control over identifiable assets over a period of time is conveyed in exchange for consideration. For such leases, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a right-of-use liability unless the lease is short term or of minor value where lease payments are recorded an operating expense evenly over the lease. The Group's lease portfolio is extensive with leases mainly for business premises, plant equipment and motor vehicles. Presentation and measurement of right of use assets Right of use assets recognised by the Group are presented within Property, Plant and Equipment along with owned assets by asset class. Initially, the right-of-use asset is measured with reference to the value determined for the associated right-of-use liability (refer below) less direct costs and any lease incentives. Expected end of lease costs such as make good are included in the right-of-use asset value determined at lease inception. Thoughout the lease term (including extended terms where judged appropriate) right-of-use assets are depreciated and periodically assessed for impairment. Depreciation begins when control of the leased asset by the Group occurs up until the date when control ends. In the event of changes to the lease, the right-of-use asset is remeasured with reference to the remeasurement of the right-of-use liability and the other factors considered at inception or new factors. Presentation and measurement of right of use liabilities Right of use liabilities recognised by the Group are presented within borrowings (current and non-current). Initially the right-of-use liability is measured as the present value of future lease payments discounted using an interest rate implicit in the lease or the Group's incremental borrowing rate. Future lease payments of leases may be influenced by lease incentives, incremental increases during the lease term, extension options (where reasonably certain that will occur) and residual value guarantees expected to be paid. Over the lease term, payments made reduce the right-of-use liability balance while applicable interest is recognised monthly as interest expense and increases the liability balance. Remeasurement of the right of use liabilities occurs when substantive elements of the lease change such as changes to the lease term or variation to amounts payable under the lease. 3.8 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. 37 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.9 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. 3.10 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 27. 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. 3.11 Taxation Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. 3.11.1 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. 3.11.2 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 38 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 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. 3.11.3 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 recognised 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. 3.11.4 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 7.3. 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. 3.12 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. Right of use assets 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. 3.13 Intangible assets 3.13.1 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. 39 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.13.2 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. 3.14 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. 3.15 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. 3.16 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. 3.16.1 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. 40 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.16.2 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. 3.17 Financial Assets Financial assets are classified as either those measured at fair value, with adjustments to fair value through the change in Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI) or through Profit or Loss (FVTPL); and those measured at amortised cost. 3.17.1 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. 3.17.2 Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are carried at original invoice amount, less expected credit losses provided for. Collectability of trade and other receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Individual debts that are determined to be uncollectable are written off when identified. 3.17.3 Impairment of financial assets Trade and other receivables are subject to AASB 9’s Expected Credit Losses model for recognising and measuring impairment of financial assets. The simplified approach has been applied for all trade and other receivables that do not have a significant financing component. For these receivables, the age of outstanding balances have been analysed and historical default percentages adjusted for other current observable data has been applied as a means to estimate lifetime Expected Credit Losses using a provision matrix approach. 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. 3.18 Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group 3.18.1 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. 3.18.2 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. 3.18.3 Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as ‘other financial liabilities’. 41 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.18.4 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. 3.19 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 presented in the consolidated statement of cash flow 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. 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 judgments, 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 described in note 3.5.3. 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 Goodwill is not amortised but assessed for impairment at least once a year (and when there is evidence of impairment). The Group uses a Fair Value Less Costs to Sell (FVLCTS) method to assess impairment. This method determines the amount which the business to which the goodwill relates to could be sold for (less sale related expenses). The recoverable amount determined from the FVLCTS assessment is then compared to the carrying amount of assets to determine if there is any impairment. Impairment testing is complex and involves the following key judgements: 42 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY (CONTINUED) - Impairment is tested at a cash generating unit (CGU) level; which is the lowest level at which the Group generates discrete and separate cash inflows and outflows. The Group considers this to be at the Fire Build CGU level; which is a component of the Advanced Property Solutions segment as disclosed in note 25. - The calculation of FVLCTS models is complex and involves a significant number of judgements regarding future performance and the price which an external party would pay to purchase businesses similar to those operated by the Group. The disclosures in note 14 outline the key assumptions and the outcome of impairment testing completed. See note 14 for details. 4.1.3 Payroll Tax Liability Following the settlement of the NSW Office of State Revenue (OSR), BSA has entered into a repayment plan with the NSW OSR. The provision for this matter at the end of FY2020 stands at $1,328,000 (FY2019: $1,843,000). See note 21 for details. 4.2 COVID-19 impact On 27 February 2020, the Australian government declared COVID-19 a national pandemic. The Governor General of Australia on 18 March 2020 soon after declared COVID-19 a Human Biosecurity Emergency. Governmental measures aimed at suppressing the transmission of coronavirus in Australia have had a consequential impact on economic activity generally across the markets in which BSA conducts business. Other income during FY2020 of $4,312,000 related to: $3,890,000 government assistance (JobKeeper wage subsidy) utilised in accordance with government guidelines to maintain BSA’s workforce; and other gains, including gains on sale of plant and equipment, of $422,000. Commonwealth and State government initiatives aimed at alleviating cash flow pressures, including the deferment of indirect tax payments, have applied to BSA during FY2020. Refer note 18. The assessment of expected credit losses included a consideration of the possible implications that COVID-19 may have on customer’s ability to pay. Refer note 11. The assessment of the recoverable value of goodwill included a consideration of the possible implications that COVID-19 may have on future economic value of the relevant cash-generating unit. Refer note 14. The operations of the Group demonstrate a high degree of resilience due to the sizeable proportion of the business that qualify as an essential service.

The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is BSA Limited. The members of the tax- consolidated group are identified in note 16. 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. 46 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 8 KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL The aggregate compensation made to Directors and other key management personnel of the Company and the Group is set out below: Short-term employee benefits Post-employment benefits Other long-term benefits Termination benefits Share-based payments 2020 $ 1,806,741 83,296 15,220 394,749 165,406 2,465,412 Consolidated 2019 $ 1,635,286 84,472 16,438 - 99,200 1,835,396 Further information regarding the identity of key management personnel and their compensation can be found in the Audited Remuneration Report contained in the Directors' Report on pages 15 to 22 of this Annual Report.

Consolidated $'000 11,185 11,185 The assessment of impairment of goodwill is based on a Fair Value Less Cost of Disposal (FVLCOD) model. The model includes the following key assumptions: • EBITDA for the CGU is broadly consistent with the 30 June 2021 financial year budgeted EBITDA. • EBITDA multiples for arm’s length transactions of businesses similar in size and nature to the business units within recent financial periods. The resulting FVLCOD model is consistent with a level 3 instrument in the fair value hierarchy. No reasonably possible changes would unfavourably impact the model to the extent that the related goodwill would be impaired. 52 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 15 NON-CURRENT ASSETS - OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Intangible assets, other than goodwill, have finite lives.

Extension options Certain leases contain extension options exercisable by the Group up to one year before the end of the non-cancellable contract period. Where practicable, the Group seeks to include extension options (by the Group not the lessor) in new leases to provide operational flexibility. The Group has assessed at lease commencement whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the extension options, and where it is reasonably certain, the extension period has been included in the lease liability. Periodically, the Group reassesses whether it is reasonably certain that extension options will be exercised if there is a significant event or change in circumstances. Residual value guarantees and buy out options Certain lease contracts may include an option to buy-out the asset at the end of the lease term or include contingent rental guarantees where the Group could be exposed to the variability of returns in relation to return conditions at lease expiry. The Group includes payments for contingent rental guarantees or buy-out options only if it is reasonably certain that those payments will occur at the end of the lease term. The Group reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the options if there is a significant event or significant change in circumstances within its control. 60 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 21 PROVISIONS Employee benefits Other provisions (see below) CURRENT NON-CURRENT Note (i) Other Provisions Balance at 30 June 2019 Additional provisions recognised Provisions reversed Utilised Balance at 30 June 2020 Office of State Revenue (ii) 1,843 1,045 - (1,560) 1,328 Make Good (iii) 1,346 214 (14) (28) 1,518 Leases (iv) 2,540 - - (734) 1,806 2020 $’000 11,375 9,764 Consolidated 2019 $’000 8,664 7,662 21,139 16,326 13,854 7,285 11,730 4,596 21,139 16,326 Contract Provisions (v) 1,933 4,159 - (980) 5,112 Total 7,662 5,418 (14) (3,302) 9,764 (i) The provision for employee benefits represents annual leave and vested and non-vested long service leave entitlements accrued.

NOTE 27 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (a) Fee Sacrifice Equity Plan to Individual Non-Executive Directors The establishment of the BSA Fee Sacrifice Equity Plan to Individual Non-Executive Directors was approved by shareholders at the 2017 AGM. The plan is to establish a mechanism for Non-Executive Directors (NEDS) to acquire shares in the Company by electing to salary sacrifice a proportion of annual fees, on a voluntary basis that will align their interests with shareholders and does not create any financial or governance concerns for shareholders. All individuals holding NED roles in the Company or a subsidiary of the Company are eligible to become participants in the Plan. Each year, the Company intends to invite each NED to voluntarily elect to apply for rights under the Plan, to be funded by salary sacrificing a proportion of Annual Board fees. While the Company intends to issue invitations annually, the Board will determine at its sole discretion each year whether to issue an invitation. Invitations will include such terms as the Board deems appropriate including the date of the invitation, the number of Deferred Rights that a participant is eligible to apply for, that the price of a Deferred Right shall be nil (ignoring the amount of the fee sacrificed), that the exercise price shall be nil, the period during which disposal restrictions will apply, and such other terms and conditions as the Board determines. Deferred Rights granted under this Plan will be fully vested on the date of grant (being the date notified in a Notice of Grant) Deferred Rights will be automatically exercised 90 days after grant but may not be exercised earlier. On exercise of a right, the Board in its discretion will either: a) issue shares to Participants or b) arrange for shares to be acquired for the benefit of Participants by the trustee of the BSA Employee Share Trust. The Company will contribute such funds as needed to acquire shares either on-market or a subscription to a new issue as directed by the Board. The shares that result from the exercise of Deferred Rights are Restricted Shares. All shares acquired by Participants are subject to disposal restrictions that prevent disposal until the earlier of 15 years from the date of grant of rights and cessation of being a NED on the Board of BSA or a subsidiary of the Company (which will be specified Disposal Restrictions). During the period the Special Disposal Restrictions apply, the Restricted Shares may not be sold or otherwise disposed. The Company may impose a CHESS holding lock on Restricted Shares to ensure the participant does not sell them earlier than permitted under the Rules. The Company will advise each participant when it considers the specified disposal restrictions cease to apply. Participants must not enter an arrangement with anyone if it would have the effect of limiting their exposure to risk in relation to Deferred Rights or Restricted Shares. 67 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 27 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (CONTINUED) Participants will be treated in a manner that does not advantage or disadvantage them compared with other shareholders in the event of bonus issues, rights issues and capital reorganisation. If a participant ceases to be a NED of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company any unexercised Deferred Rights will be exercised automatically the day following cessation, and any Restricted Shares held by a Participant that are subject to Specified Disposal Restrictions will cease to be subject to such restrictions on the day of cessation unless otherwise determined by the Board and notified to the Participant in the Invitation.

The Plan was established to reward selected eligible employees and to: • • • • • 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. Securities may be offered under the Plan and the Board has discretion to determine who is offered the opportunity to participate. Generally, securities are subject to a holding restriction and cannot be traded unless certain performance conditions are met or as otherwise specified at the time of the relevant award after acquisition by the participant. Rights to acquire shares will not be exercisable until the end of the final measurement period, and until those rights have satisfied all vesting conditions and all 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 have a specified life determined by the Board. The initial grant of rights (the Grant Date) will have a life terminating five years after the Grant Date or such other date as determined by the Board (the Expiry Date). Rights granted to certain participants in the initial grant will be at zero vesting value and will be subject to the following performance conditions as determined by the Board: (i) Service conditions as determined by the Board. (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 each Measurement Period and service condition of three years. The Board will prescribe the date when performance under the hurdle is measured for each tranche. 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 it is not exercised by the Expiry Date. The Exercise Price (if any) will be an amount determined by the Board from time to time, fixed at the date of grant or determined by application of methodology approved by the Board. 68 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 27 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (CONTINUED) Once Rights have been exercised by an Eligible Employee (subject to certain Performance Conditions being met), the Company may make non- refundable contributions to the Plan Company to either: • • fund the purchase of a new Plan Share; or the acquisition on the ASX of an existing share and transfer to the participant of that share, to which the Participant is entitled under the rights. The current plan company is BSA Limited ACN 088 412 748 or any other Company that the Board may approve from time to time. After rights are exercised, the plan company will subscribe for new shares or acquire shares in the ordinary course of trading on the ASX for participants, as directed from time to time by the Board.

The Plan was established as a mechanism to provide the Company's key executives with a direct equity involvement and incentive in the Company which aligns 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. If an Executive to whom an invitation has been issued forwards to the Company a duly completed Loan Application and the Transfer Documents together with his acceptance, and where appropriate his Application for Shares, then the Company shall, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, lend to the Executive such amount as the Executive has applied for in the Loan Application. The maximum amount of any Loan shall be the total subscription price for the shares applied for. No interest is payable by the borrower under the Loan Agreement. An Executive shall not sell, mortgage, charge, assign or otherwise dispose of or encumber any shares before payment or repayment of any amount outstanding to the Company in respect thereof. Subject to the above restriction and to the terms of the Loan Agreement (if any) deemed to be entered into by the Executive, 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. 69 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 27 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (CONTINUED) 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.

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 polices 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. Further details regarding these policies are set out below. 73 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 31 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 5% of gross monetary assets at balance date.

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. 74 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020 NOTE 31 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) Financing arrangements The following financing facilities were available at balance date: Credit stand-by arrangements Total facilities: Corporate Market Loan Cash Advance Facility Borrowing Base Facility Debtor Finance Facility Used at balance date: Corporate Market Loan Cash Advance Facility Borrowing Base Facility Debtor Finance Facility Unused at balance date: Corporate Market Loan Cash Advance Facility Borrowing Base Facility Debtor Finance Facility Master Asset Finance Facility Total facilities: Used at balance date Total unused Master Asset Finance Facility Total unused Facilities at balance date 2020 $’000 - 6,000 37,500 - 43,500 - - - - - - 6,000 37,500 - 43,500 3,050 2,909 141 43,641 Consolidated 2019 $’000 20,000 - - 12,500 32,500 - - - - - 20,000 - - 12,500 32,500 8,000 3,907 4,093 36,593 In addition to the above arrangements the consolidated entity has a bank guarantee facility of $26,500,000 (2019:$26,500,000) which was utilised to $14,664,000 (2019: $18,440,000).

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.

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)/debt1 Total equity Total gearing ratio 2020 $’000 (32,720) 32,288 (101.34%) Consolidated 2019 $’000 (16,268) 35,934 (45.27%) 1 Excludes right of use lease liabilities. Includes finance leases had AASB 117 Leases been applied. Gearing levels were maintained at a healthy position at 30 June 2020. 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.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of BSA Limited or 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 2020 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 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.

The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020 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 we do 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, 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 has 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 intentional omissions, involve collusion, fraud may misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. forgery, 82 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT Page 5 • 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. • 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’s 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, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. 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 15 to 22 of the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2020. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of BSA Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2020, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. 83 BSA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2020 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 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.
