Our advanced capabilities, innovative approach and modern facilities enable us to work smarter and more efficiently, providing our clients with high-quality, value-driven solutions to meet their manufacturing, construction and maintenance requirements. With a focus on establishing long-term partnerships and working collaboratively, we have played a significant role in the delivery of some of Australia’s most complex projects, both onshore and offshore, since our establishment in 2009. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing and maintenance facilities are positioned in strategic locations in Western Australia, New South Wales and Queensland, providing our clients with logistical advantages and enabling us to respond agilely to their needs. These world-class facilities, backed by our extensive equipment base and strong, multi-disciplined team, enable us to effectively service projects of all sizes and complexities, anywhere in Australia. 6 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 1.2 Our Facilities Our main west coast facility, located just 30 kilometres south of Perth, is the largest heavy engineering facility of its kind in Australia. Positioned on 200,000m² of waterfront land in the Australian Marine Complex (AMC) precinct, it has access to the AMC’s prime facilities, ports and equipment, in addition to 440,000m² of Common User Facility (CUF) land. Within the Civmec facility is our cutting-edge 53,000m² (usable floor area) Assembly Hall, 29,300m² Fabrication Hall, blast and paint workshops, exotic metals and site support workshops, and multi-storey office building. Our Newcastle facility is our principal manufacturing facility on the east coast, situated on 227,000m² of riverfront land, 14 kilometres from the port of Newcastle. With more than 22,500m² of manufacturing workshops (with capacity to cater for steel and concrete production requirements), as part of a combined 30,000m² of undercover space (including storage areas), the facility efficiently services the east coast market, in addition to providing support for our west coast operations. Sustaining our maintenance and capital works operations are our Gladstone and Port Hedland facilities, each positioned purposely in major activity hubs for the Resources and Energy sectors. Our Gladstone facility, in regional Queensland, provides light fabrication capacity and serves as a base for essential equipment and the workforce required for maintenance, refractory and shutdown works in the area. Our recently secured lease on a Port Hedland facility represents a real commitment to the region, making us more readily available to our clients and allowing us to ably service onshore and offshore maintenance and capital works projects in the north-west of Western Australia as they arise. In the second half of the year, we agreed to purchase approximately five hectares of land in the industrial area of the regional hub and have already commenced plans to develop the site with a substantial workshop and office development.

We were also driven by our corporate social responsibilities, embracing a number of new initiatives for the betterment of our people and the broader community. 2020 ORDER BOOK REACHED $1.2 BILLION With a number of significant contracts and extensions awarded throughout FY2021, our order book reached $1.2 billion in November. This included contracts from Iron Bridge JV (IBJV), Woodside, BHP Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA), Rio Tinto, Roy Hill, Alcoa Australia and Main Roads WA. 131 projects in delivery in FY2021 10 SUCCESSFUL CONTINUATION OF SEA 1180 OPV PROGRAM We continued to make good progress on the Royal Australian Navy’s Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV) Program, with keel laying for OPV3 held in September and construction commencement of OPV4 in January. We now have two ships under consolidation in our new Assembly Hall. CAPITAL WORKS DIVISION FORMED Our Capital Works division was formed to provide additional resources and operational support for future Western Australian maintenance and capital works opportunities in the Energy and Resources sectors. This is a new target area of opportunity for the business, having only had minor interactions previously. The requirement comes from both existing and new clients, all of whom have a significant requirement for our multi-disciplined capability. A$ 780 MILLION of contracts awarded or extended in FY2021 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 IMPLEMENTED OUR FORMALISED MENTAL HEALTH STRATEGY We introduced a three-year Mental Health Strategy to all areas of the business to ensure we are adequately prepared to address mental health issues across employees and their families, and offer them the best support at their time of need. Consistent with this renewed focus, we partnered with MATES in Construction, an important Australian charity that provides mental health and suicide prevention support for workers in the construction industry. SECURED PORT HEDLAND FACILITY We strategically expanded our geographical footprint, securing a facility in Port Hedland, Western Australia, putting us in closer proximity to major onshore and offshore Pilbara operations and providing additional support for our newly established Capital Works division. We subsequently made a long-term commitment to the region with the purchase of a five- hectare industrial landholding at the export hub, with plans underway for development of workshop and office facilities. 59,450 TONNES OF STEEL through our workshops INTRODUCED PAID PARENTAL LEAVE SCHEME With strong consideration for the value we place on our female employees, we introduced a Paid Parental Leave scheme, providing up to ten weeks’ paid leave for eligible employees across all regions upon the birth or adoption of a child in order to facilitate an enhanced work-life balance. Secondary carers may also receive up to two weeks’ paid leave. 2021 CREATED LOCAL EMPLOYMENT FOR MORE THAN 2,800 PEOPLE Over the course of the financial year, we directly employed approximately 2,800 people at peak, including 67 apprentices/pre-apprentices, 56 graduates/undergraduates and 10 trainees. We also engaged with students through schools, colleges and via career expos, providing students with an insight into our sustainable career pathways and training programs. COMPANY AND SAFETY AWARDS We won awards for the company and project specific safety performance, including the Skill Hire ‘Host Safety Award for 2020’, ‘Contractor of the Month’ across many of our sites, including the Kemerton Lithium Project and Rio Tinto’s Mesa projects. Several of our apprentices and trainees were also recognised for their achievements throughout the year, with many of them finalists in the annual awards for standout apprentices in the State. SUPPORTED VARIOUS COMMUNITY CHARITIES We are always conscious of the importance of our position and responsibilities within the community and this year we continued to care for those around us by supporting a number of charities, including St Patrick’s Community Support Centre, Foodbank, Cancer Council, RUAH and, most notably, the St. Vincent De Paul Society through the CEO Sleepout, where Civmec CEO Pat Tallon and Group Manager HR & IR Stephanie Baptist combined to raise some of the highest amounts in Western Australia. 11 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 1.5 Financial Summary The Group achieved a record Net Profit After Tax (NPAT) of A$34.6 million for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (FY2021), representing a 98 per cent increase on the previous financial year. Revenue for FY2021 increased to A$674.2 million and Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) increased to A$73.8 million. The year end result was reflective of the Group’s efforts to generate growth in net profit returns and stable, reliable revenue in FY2021. Maintaining the positive momentum in profitability and revenue will remain a key priority going forward. Consistent with the previous year’s results, and with prudent management to ensure it had minimal effect, COVID-19 had no material impact on the Group’s financial performance at the end of FY2021. Net cash generated from operating activities was A$58.3 million and, at year end, the Group had A$48.2 million cash in the bank. The Group ended FY2021 with a very strong order book of A$1.0 billion, representing a A$100 million increase from the FY2020 year end and fortifying the Group’s financial position as it enters FY2022. Forward tendering outlook remains positive with the Group now well diversified and firmly established to capitalise on future private and public infrastructure spend. Following the completion of major capital investment works in Henderson, the Group returned to regular capital expenditure in FY2021, with debt controlled and decreasing by $2.4 million over the period. The value of property, plant and equipment increased to A$412.0 million. Recent investment by the Group in establishing a Port Hedland presence will set the foundations for a successful longer term outcome when the Company develops the land purchased in the region, which is anticipated to generate a positive return on capital over the coming years. At completion of FY2021, the Group had total assets of A$636.9 million, net assets of A$292.1 million and net tangible asset backing of A$0.583 per share.

In what has been another challenging year for many companies and countries globally, we are very pleased to have delivered some of our best results. I feel this is an outcome of the forward vision and strategy we have implemented since we commenced operations in 2009. Back then, we initiated a continuous development plan for the Henderson precinct, and we have now seen this plan through to completion. We have also made other geographical and operational adjustments within the growing business to ensure we establish a solid platform for a long-term, sustainable company. While we will continue to look for opportunities to further strengthen the business, there is a certain sense of fulfilment in witnessing what has been achieved to date, and I am proud of our entire workforce for their enthusiasm and efforts. We have delivered to our planning and have found ourselves in the strengthened position we are now in today. Going forward, our past capital investments have provided us with a substantial, tangible asset base that is stable and strong, while our diversification strategy now sees us firmly positioned to capitalise on opportunities across the sectors in which we operate, across public and private enterprise. We have continued to service the market through another year of the pandemic, a trying period that has led many of our clients to see the increased value that Australian manufacturers can provide for their local projects. Our well-established local resource pools, state-of-the-art facilities and vast self-performance capability have not only enabled us to continue delivering a world-class service, but excel in doing so. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE Our revenue for FY2021 was A$674.2 million, with a net profit after tax of A$34.6 million. These results are a pleasing validation of the strategies implemented during our growth phase of investment and expansion. In addition to our emphasis on improving profitability in FY2021, we maintained focus on sustaining cash flow and were awarded a significant number of new contracts across all sectors, taking our order book to as high as $1.2 billion in November 2020. The value of new and extended contracts awarded in FY2021 was A$780 million, comprising new projects and additional scopes in Energy (A$99 million); Resources, including maintenance and specialist refractory works (A$537 million); and Defence & Infrastructure (A$144 million). A number of the significant projects awarded during FY2021 will carry forward into coming years, providing us with consistent revenue that will extend well beyond FY2022. DIVIDENDS With further strengthening of the balance sheet transpiring this financial year, a strong financial position overall and a demonstration of a genuine willingness to return value to our shareholders, this year we declared our first interim dividend of A$1.0 cents per share, which was paid in March 2021. I feel the business has matured significantly since inception and the interim distribution of funds to shareholders is reflective of the confidence we have in the future outlook for the business. The Board of Directors has also recommended a final cash dividend of A$1.0 cents per share, subject to 14 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 shareholders’ approval at our Annual General Meeting on 29 October 2021. The full year dividend payment represents a 29 per cent payout ratio and will be paid on 17 December 2021. OUR PEOPLE In yet another year impacted by COVID-19, our workforce demonstrated incredible resilience and adaptability, particularly those who were considerably impacted by state border restrictions and lockdowns, and for this I am extremely grateful. I am pleased that we maintained our position as a significant Australian employer, not only providing certainty to our current employees, but also creating new opportunities for local workers, apprentices, trainees and graduates. In FY2021, we provided employment to approximately 2,800 workers at peak across Australia. The strength and depth of our multi-skilled workforce, combined with the continuous upskilling opportunities we are making available to them, is now, I believe, one of our most significant differentials and an extremely valuable asset to our business. STRATEGY AND FUTURE FOCUS While we entered FY2022 with a solid order book of A$1.0 billion, looking ahead, we will continue to focus on maintaining capital discipline, securing consistent revenue streams and further improving profitability to provide sustainable outcomes for the future. We believe our long-term strategy of diversification, in combination with our significant investment in property, plant and equipment over the years, has us positioned in excellent stead for upcoming contracts in both the private and public sectors. Our vertically integrated, turnkey offering enables us to service projects of all sizes and complexities, anywhere in the country, from our world-class facilities. With a renewed consideration on Australian manufacturing and more clients recognising the tangible value in our high-quality, locally made product, we are optimistic on the sustainability of the business overall for many generations to come; a fundamental that will extend long beyond the current global situation that has been a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. On behalf of the Board, I would like to congratulate and thank our people for the commendable results we have achieved this year. I appreciate the dedication and commitment you have shown and look forward to celebrating more successes together in the years ahead. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank our clients for their continued confidence in us. Many of you have shared the journey with us for a number of years and we pledge to continue to deliver safely, efficiently and to the highest standards. To my fellow Executives and Independent Directors, I would like to acknowledge and thank you for your hard work and guidance. And finally, to our investors, thank you for the trust and loyalty you have placed in us. I am confident that we are in a strong position to gain increasing benefit from our past strategic investments and that, in turn, will continue to drive shareholder returns in the coming years. Yours sincerely James Fitzgerald Executive Chairman Civmec Limited 15 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 1.7 Chief Executive Officer’s Report FY2021 has been a strong year for us, as we reap the rewards of our long- term strategy, despite the ongoing challenges presented by COVID-19. By continuously refining and enhancing our processes and practices, we have developed robust systems to manage the safety and wellbeing of our workforce and business, enabling us to maintain solid, reliable outcomes in operations. Although a small number of our projects were impacted by client constraints or pandemic restrictions, we were able to navigate this with strong communication, flexibility and collaboration. This approach, combined with our local manufacturing capabilities, has enabled us to keep our operations profitable and our people employed, providing our clients with surety of delivery in these uncertain times. With innovative methodologies, proven onsite and offsite delivery, and significantly increased capacity following completion of our world- class Assembly Hall in Henderson, this year we have seen an increase in early engagement with clients on future projects. This is an indication that they are, more than ever, seeing the value of our turnkey solution offering, which includes our in-house local manufacturing capability. 40% INCREASE to the number of apprentices, graduates and trainees in FY2021 16 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 This represents validation of our past investment decisions and gives us confidence in the long-term sustainability of the business. Our comprehensive service offering, now as a recognised Tier 1 contractor, has us well placed to pursue upcoming, large-scale opportunities in both the public and private sectors. BUSINESS PERFORMANCE The Company maintained strong operational performance across all sectors, continuing to deliver core projects and securing several significant new contracts throughout the year. In the Energy sector, we continued to demonstrate our specialist subsea capabilities with works on the Chevron-operated Gorgon Stage Two (GS2) Subsea Installation Project, completing delivery of 15 buckle initiators for Allseas in January and continuing in the delivery of tie-in, jumper spools and spreader beams for TechnipFMC. The latter works are scheduled for completion in late 2021. We delivered interconnector and stair tower modules, skids and piping spools for Woodside’s Pluto-Karratha Gas Plant (KGP) Interconnector Project, via EPCM Worley, and a manifold and removable mudmat for Woodside’s Julimar Phase Two Project. We were also awarded a five-year term non-exclusive, non-binding outline agreement by Woodside to support their onshore and offshore production facilities and capital projects (with two one-year extension options available). Our Resources division celebrated the successful full vertical delivery of the primary crushing and ore processing facility at Fortescue Metals Group’s new Eliwana mine in November, which included shop detailing and fabrication at Henderson and Newcastle, plus delivery and site installation of civil, structural, mechanical, piping and electrical works. We also completed the Larego overland conveyor package at Alcoa’s Willowdale mine. We continued to support the delivery of Australia’s largest lithium hydroxide plant, the Kemerton Lithium Project. Having earlier completed the civil concrete works, we have gone on to provide fabrication and onsite installation of the plant’s structural, mechanical, piping and insulation, as well as the supply and installation of refractory linings into the kilns we previously manufactured for the processing plant. The Iron Bridge Magnetite Project, a joint venture between Fortescue Metals Group subsidiary FMG Magnetite Pty Ltd and Formosa Steel IB Pty Ltd, awarded us three significant packages over the course of the year, firstly for civil and concrete works, then for the fabrication of various steel structures and components in a contract for the installation of modules, as well as a contract for the structural, mechanical, piping, electrical and instrumentation works on the project. We were awarded two separate contracts for the BHP Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) Hay Point Coal Terminal Project. These works include the fabrication, modularisation and commissioning of a ship loader, and to manufacture approximately 15,000 tonnes of steelwork for the development of extensive port infrastructure. These are large and significant projects for our client, and the Queensland region, and it is pleasing that such a quality-conscious client has trusted us to deliver it, with a very collaborative approach. Highlighting the recognised value in our service offering, we were awarded several new packages by some of our other longest-standing clients. This included an additional package from Rio Tinto on the Robe Valley Sustaining Project to design and construct a fixed plant workshop at Mesa A, in addition to the previously awarded wet plant package, and a contract for the supply and installation of civil works for the new Mesa J secondary sizer. We also continued our ongoing relationship with Roy Hill with the award and delivery of a civil package for a de-bottlenecking project, while continuing to support BHP with a heavy engineering package for the manufacture of train load out (TLO) bin modules for their Jimblebar mine site. Delivery of the prestigious Royal Australian Navy SEA 1180 Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV) Program continued, with several key milestones achieved during the year. This included the completion of the hull of OPV2, the keel laying of OPV3, and the construction commencement of OPV4. As of June 2021, we had approximately 225 full time Civmec employees supporting construction of the OPVs from our Henderson facility. We also successfully completed construction of the multimillion-dollar Submarine Rescue Service (SRS) facility in Henderson for Phoenix International. In the Infrastructure space, we were engaged by Main Roads WA to deliver the Perth Kids’ Bridge Project, which was completed on schedule and now links the Perth Children’s Hospital with Kings Park, providing respite for children undergoing treatment in the hospital. I am confident that our successful delivery of this iconic project has cemented our status in the Western Australian public infrastructure sector and will hold us in good stead for future opportunities. We also delivered a number of infrastructure packages from our Newcastle facility, including further bridge projects for Transport for New South Wales (TfNSW) including the completion of several significant bridge structures for the Berry to Bomaderry portion of the Princess Highway upgrade, south of Sydney. Our east coast facility continued to work in synergy with the west, fabricating key components on major projects, which enabled us to expedite schedule and maximise output. Notably, this year, that included the manufacture of shuttle trusses, conveyor trusses, platework and stick steel on a significant new package of work awarded to us for the Rio Tinto Gudai-Darri (Koodaideri) Project. We were also able to utilise both facilities for the fabrication and delivery of structural steel and platework on Rio Tinto’s Mesa A, as well as fabrication of stainless steel hand rails and other items on the Hay Point ship loader. Additionally, following on from FY2020, our Newcastle facility has continued fabricating dumper tray bodies for heavy haul equipment suppliers to the Resources sector. 17 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 While our Maintenance division was slightly impacted by the rescheduling of some clients’ planned maintenance works, due to their COVID-19 risk mitigation measures whereby clients minimised the number of personnel on site, it remained an important division as we continued to deliver mechanical maintenance and refractory services across Western Australia, Queensland and the Northern Territory. We expect these works will be, at least, sustained over the next financial year, with increased activity anticipated as we advance from the pandemic. During the year, we also negotiated a new three-year maintenance contract with Alcoa Australia, continuing our long- term relationship with the company. To complement our Maintenance division, we secured land for a new facility in Wedgefield, Port Hedland, giving us a prime base in the Pilbara to enable rapid mobilisation and support our clients’ onshore and offshore assets in the region. The Company maintained strong operational performance across all sectors, continuing to deliver core projects and securing several significant new projects throughout the year. Port Hedland is the world’s biggest bulk export port by tonnage and is the prime port for many of our clients, with close proximity to numerous LNG port facilities and Resources mine sites, so the significance of establishing in the area should not be underestimated. We see strong long-term opportunities for the business, particularly in maintenance and capital works, with the planned facility development, our Gladstone maintenance workshop and two manufacturing facilities. Furthermore, we established a new Capital Works division, which provides focused support for maintenance and capital works in the Energy and Resources sectors. It is our strategic intent that this evolution of our service offering will ensure we have the resources and expertise to seize more opportunities in this area as the need for these services increases. OUR PEOPLE We have continued to invest in the training and development of our people, utilising innovative programs devised to upskill and reinforce our capable team from within, and collaborating with local high schools, colleges, universities and government departments throughout the year. Our Graduate Program has initiated an increase in the number of graduates, apprentices and trainees across the business, particularly in the Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) and Engineering fields. It is also pleasing to report our intake of apprentices, graduates and trainees rose this year by 40 per cent. At the end of June, we had 150 apprentices, trainees and graduates on long-term structured training programs across a wide age demographic. We are conscious of the importance of giving the next generation of people the required skills to ensure we have a sustainable industry. Cultivation of our in-house LEAD Program continues to provide our people with exciting, sustainable career pathways in the business. Tailored as a supervisor and leading hand training program, which includes four nationally accredited units delivered through our Registered Training Organisation, it was implemented to identify and upskill emerging leaders within the business. I am positive that by enhancing the knowledge and understanding of our supervisors, leading hands and management team, we can continue to attract and retain talent at the highest levels, paving the way for our future succession plan. In a testament to the quality of our programs, five of our apprentices were nominated in the 2020 Skill Hire Awards, with our apprentice Hailey Maisey securing the “Apprentice Safety Awareness” award. We were also thrilled to receive the “Host Safety Award for 2020” at this event. Acknowledging that our responsibilities extend beyond our immediate employees, we have continued to foster mutually beneficial relationships with a wide range of local subcontractors, with a particular emphasis on increasing our indigenous engagement. This has, in turn, been recognised for helping to provide employment and other benefits to those businesses, their employees and the wider community. I would also like to draw attention to the incredible generosity of our people in supporting 18 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 various charities this financial year. Whether it be volunteering time, donating money or goods, recycling containers or baking for charity morning teas, it all contributes to creating a better community and positive work culture, both of which I am extremely proud to be a part of. STRATEGY AND FUTURE FOCUS Going forward, we will continue to maximise the utilisation of our modern, well-equipped facilities and tangible assets, gaining value from our earlier diversification and significant investments on both sides of the country. With an aim to capitalise on future government and private spend, we will target profitable construction, manufacturing, sustaining capital and maintenance opportunities, be it the complete vertical delivery of new projects and expansions, or separable works portions. Our OPV Program will provide us with sustained revenue until 2029, and we are confident that additional opportunities will emerge in the Defence sector as the Federal Government continues to expand its naval shipbuilding and sustainment program. I also believe we have solid potential to increase our revenue in the public Infrastructure sector, particularly given our status as a Tier 1 contractor and proven ability to deliver. The establishment of our Capital Works division, coupled with our new Port Hedland facility, has strengthened our service offering in sustaining and brownfields projects, and we believe we are well poised for growth in these areas in the coming years. Since we commenced our initial operations, we have worked hard to develop and maintain a strong, capable team.

Yours sincerely Patrick Tallon Chief Executive Officer Civmec Limited 19 Our Operating Sectors 2.1 ENERGY 2.2 RESOURCES 2.3 DEFENCE & INFRASTRUCTURE 20 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 2 21 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 2.1 Energy 174% INCREASE to FY2021 Energy Sector Revenue compared to FY2020 22 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 During FY2021, we continued to deliver high-quality, tailored solutions for our Energy clients, continually proving our value when it comes to delivering a premium end product that meets the exacting standards of the sector. A$ 38 MILLION annual revenue for FY2021 A$ 99 MILLION in new contract awards and extensions With a wide range of experience on significant Energy projects over the years and specialist subsea capabilities, our increased capacity at Henderson is providing clients with more opportunities to engage as they seek to unlock the value of our local manufacturing capabilities. Our works on the Chevron-operated Gorgon natural gas facility continued in FY2021, specifically the Gorgon Stage 2 (GS2) Subsea Installation Project, an expansion to the subsea gas gathering network to maintain long-term natural gas supply to the LNG facility on Barrow Island. Of the two GS2 packages awarded to Civmec in the previous year, we completed delivery of 15 buckle initiators for client Allseas in November. The scope included the supply, fabrication, application of a specialist subsea painting system, and testing of the buckle initiators, each weighing approximately 55 tonnes, before trial lifting and loadout from the Australian Marine Complex (AMC). Delivery of the tie-in, jumper spools and spreader beams for Technip FMC is ongoing, with the scope including fabrication and testing of the 2,200 tonnes of components. All work on the GS2 project is being undertaken at either our state-of-the-art Henderson facility or the Common User Facility at the AMC. This includes post-metrology and factory acceptance testing, with loadout occurring from the Common User Facility. In a demonstration of our diverse depth of skills and capabilities, our works for Woodside – via EPCM contractor Worley – on the Pluto-Karratha Gas Plant (KGP) Interconnector Project were successfully completed in June. The Interconnector Project was developed to transport gas from the Woodside-operated Pluto LNG facility to the North West Shelf Project’s KGP via a five-kilometre pipeline, providing an opportunity to take advantage of future excess capacity at KGP and the potential to accelerate future developments of other offshore Pluto gas reserves, as well as third-party resources. Our overall scope of work for the project included the supply, fabrication, surface treatment, assembly, testing and delivery of an interconnector module, stair tower module, skids and more than three and a half kilometres of piping spools. During the year, we completed a package for Woodside’s Julimar Phase 2 Project for the supply, fabrication, surface treatment, testing and delivery free alongside (FAS) of a manifold and removable mudmat foundation. Our Manufacturing division received a significant boost with the award of a five-year term non-exclusive, non- binding outline agreement by Woodside, with two possible one-year extension options, to support their onshore and offshore production facilities and capital projects. This includes the provision of miscellaneous piping and structural steel fabrication, surface treatment and assembly, in a range of separate packages. With the vast capacity of our cutting- edge facilities, we will continue to target new projects and expansions, along with ongoing asset maintenance and turnaround packages across Australia, in anticipation of increased activity in the sector as time progresses. Given our extensive experience, strong suite of specialised capabilities and modern plant and equipment, we are well positioned to capitalise on future opportunities in the sector as they come to market. 23 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Gorgon Stage Two Subsea Installation Project Tie-In, Jumper Spools and Spreader Beams Client Technip FMC (for Chevron) Location Henderson, WA Duration September 2019 – Late 2021 Since 2010, Civmec has delivered several major works packages on the Gorgon natural gas facility, including site civil works, precast and structural steel fabrication in construction of the plant, followed by ongoing structural steel works, both onshore and offshore, as well as planned turnaround maintenance on the Domgas plant.

Works on the project are progressing, with fabrication and supply of two trains complete and site works on the installation ongoing. In a demonstration of our Never Assume safety culture, in March 2021, we achieved one million man hours on the project without a lost time incident on site. In the latter part of the year, we delivered a package for the supply, manufacture, trial assembly and delivery FAS of four main train load out (TLO) bin modules for the BHP Jimblebar Project. We also finalised delivery of key components for BHP’s world-class US$3.6 billion South Flank iron ore mine in the Pilbara. Vertical delivery of the Larego overland conveyor package at Alcoa’s Willowdale mine was achieved, closing out a significant works package that encompassed civil works, fabrication, structural, mechanical, piping, electrical, instrumentation and no-load commissioning. Long-term client, Roy Hill, awarded us a civil works package for a de-bottlenecking project involving detailed earthworks, concrete placement, cabling and pipework. This was in addition to the Run-of-Mine (ROM) packages awarded to us last year, of which all fabricated components were delivered this year. Our presence in the Pilbara was strengthened as we secured a new Port Hedland facility, providing us with a permanent base to mobilise a local workforce who will be readily on hand for our onshore and offshore clients in Western Australia’s north. 28 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Our maintenance revenue stream was sustained, and, although some areas of activity slowed in response to the pandemic, we continued to deliver ongoing maintenance works packages to key clients, including Fortescue Metals Group, Rio Tinto, Alcoa, QAL and Roy Hill. In early 2021, we were awarded a significant three-year contract by Alcoa of Australia to provide calciner maintenance, major overhaul and repair services to their Kwinana, Pinjarra and Wagerup refineries. During the year, we established a new Capital Works division in anticipation of increased activity in the capital works space in the future. This division will focus on delivering capital upgrades to operating plants, allowing our clients to achieve incremental gains or capacity increases, and will complement our already well- established Maintenance division. Both divisions are being overseen by strong, experienced teams. Despite the challenges presented during another year of COVID-19, when it came to resourcing, we were able to successfully recruit quality employees and have witnessed many of our talented people develop and shine in our future leaders’ team. With long-standing relationships secured with blue-chip clients and a demonstrated success in our construction, manufacturing and maintenance offering, the outlook remains positive as we continue to support the safe, high-quality and timely delivery of vital Australian resource projects. 29 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Eliwana Primary Crushing and Ore Processing Facility Owner Fortescue Metals Group Location Pilbara WA Duration September 2019 - November 2020 Delivery of the primary crushing and ore processing facility for Fortescue Metals Group’s new Eliwana mine, located approximately 90 kilometres north-west of Tom Price in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.

A$ 76 MILLION annual revenue for FY2021 A$ 144 MILLION in new contract awards and extensions As a Tier 1 contractor with the required financial accreditation for major public infrastructure projects and the proven expertise to deliver complex builds, both onsite and offsite, we provide a fully integrated service offering to both sectors from the largest undercover modularisation and assembly facility in Australia. Our 53,000m² (usable floor area) Assembly Hall at Henderson, with more than 1.2 million cubic metres of internal space, has facilitated the success of our works on the Royal Australian Navy’s Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV) Program to date. The ten-year project, which commenced in 2018, includes the supply and processing of steel for twelve vessels. Following the build of the first two vessels in South Australia, using steel plates and pipework processed and manufactured at Henderson, we are undertaking the fabrication and consolidation of the follow-on ten vessels to be completed in Western Australia. In September 2020, we held a keel laying ceremony for OPV3, marking the beginning of the consolidation phase for the third vessel, while works on OPV4 commenced in January. Completion of the OPV2 hull was achieved in February, which represented an important milestone in the program. More recently, with optimising productivities in mind, and in order to streamline construction of several vessels simultaneously, we designed and implemented an innovative block rotation technique, which will deliver repeated cost and schedule efficiencies as we complete the build of all ten vessels at Henderson in the coming years. We will continue to provide a fully integrated service offering to the Defence sector for the construction of naval vessels and will support the Federal Government’s long-term Naval Shipbuilding Plan, focused on building a sustainable Australian naval shipbuilding and sustainment industry. FY2021 saw us awarded a prestigious public infrastructure project by Main Roads WA for the construction of a new bridge across Winthrop Avenue in Nedlands, linking Perth Children’s Hospital to Kings Park. Known as the Perth Kids’ Bridge or “Koolangka” Bridge (meaning “children” in Noongar), the colourful, 217-metre long, architecturally designed pedestrian bridge was conceived to enable sick children and their carers a safe passage across a busy thoroughfare between the hospital and adjacent parkland, and was successfully delivered in a short 24-week program. Civil infrastructure projects undertaken from our east coast facility during FY2021 supported the delivery of a number of bridge projects in New South Wales, including several bridge structures between Berry and Bomaderry on the Princess Highway upgrade program, south of Sydney, which were completed in December. We also provided fabrication, supply, and delivery of structural steel for a number of Transport for NSW (TfNSW) bridge projects, including truss span steel for the Briner Bridge capacity upgrade, fabricated elements for the Liddell Deviation Bridge, integral panels for the Coldstream River Bridge and various steel components for the Manilla Bridge truss steel piers.

HEALTH & SAFETY At Civmec, the health and safety of our people is our number one priority. Our focus remains on ensuring we create an environment free from injuries and a culture focused on employee wellbeing. It is this strong safety culture that forms the premise of our Never Assume principle, which empowers our people to look after themselves and those around them. The holistic philosophy considers safety, quality, the environment, the health and wellbeing of all stakeholders, and all critical factors that drive our business’s long-term sustainability. We aim to be a company of forward-thinkers who strive for excellence and new ways to deliver improved safety, productivity, and sustainable outcomes. Our focus on continual improvement encourages our employees to strive for innovation in every project or task we deliver, and through our enhanced reward and recognition program, we remain committed to providing opportunities for our people. 38 The program has continued to play an essential role in making employees more accountable for their safety in our operations by rewarding positive safety behaviours and building and shaping our safety culture across the company. Civmec’s Health and Safety Management System is certified to ISO 45001:2018. We have continued to update our health, safety and environment (HSE) procedures throughout the year in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the challenges it presents, and to ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of our employees and the communities in which we operate. We have invested considerable time into ensuring we continue to focus on and CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 An internal sustainability group, consisting of employees with knowledge on sustainability, was created during FY2021 to come up with initiatives to enhance our sustainability performance in the immediate and long term. improve the practices we have in place. Working together through the pandemic, we have seen the impact that it can have on the mental health of our people. The impact of COVID-19 was particularly significant for some of our employees who were unable to return home due to interstate and international travel restrictions. Our HR department kept in regular contact with these employees and their families, offering support and access to our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), as well as sending personalised care packages to the families of our east coast and New Zealand employees. With so many challenges being faced by our people, and impacts being felt on our employees’ mental wellbeing due to COVID-19 uncertainty and restrictions, this year was very timely for us to implement our three-year Mental Health Strategy for 2021 to 2024. The strategy provides a formal structure and sets goals for us to measure our performance on. The Mental Health Strategy has been put in place to drive mental health promotion throughout the business and keep it at the forefront of our minds. It encompasses: • • • key management responsibilities and resource commitments to allow us to achieve the objectives of the strategy; the requirement of risk assessments to identify critical psychosocial risks and ensure appropriate and suitable control measures are implemented; the establishment of a key industry partnership with MATES in Construction, an alignment that acknowledges suicide prevention leadership and support with the vision to create a mutually safer workplace by delivering suicide prevention education, peer to peer support, case management, and access to a 24/7 helpline; key procedural documents required to ensure corporate and operational level integration of requirements; the introduction of a targeted auditing program to ensure implementation of the program is consistent across different areas of the business; key formal training and awareness packages to help promote mental health in the workplace; and • • • • an increased range of support services available to our workforce to ensure that if help is needed, it is readily available and user friendly. We implemented several safety initiatives in FY2021 to improve our health and safety system and drive long-term improvements in safety performance. The introduction of our ‘See it, Own it’ campaign has helped to promote and drive individual accountability for safety throughout our operations. Individuals took ownership of work areas and influenced positive safety change amongst work crews and teams. The ‘Finish Strong 2020’ campaign was rolled out across the business in November last year to assist with maintaining focus in the lead up to the festive season, which is known to be a high-risk time of the year. 39 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 This change in work practice not only enhanced worker safety but also increased efficiency. By implementing a series of health and safety initiatives to improve our management system further, and ultimately promote continual improvement of health and safety performance, we have seen a pleasing reduction in our Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR) from the previous financial year. As we plan for the year ahead, we will remain focused on strengthening the systems we have in place, ensuring we are continually planning and implementing best practice for risk reduction strategies. Our uncompromising approach to health and safety will provide long-term, sustainable safety solutions for our people. This focus continued into the new year with the ‘Kick Start 2021’ program, and included an increased site presence of our executive and senior organisational leaders in the first four weeks of operation in 2021. Several other project-specific initiatives and strong project safety performances have returned positive results, with a number of our projects earning us ‘Contractor of the Month’ awards. Of particular note was being presented two client-orchestrated awards in a ‘Make A Difference’ program for separate safety and health initiatives. The safety award was in recognition of our new starter ‘Buddy’ program, which was successfully implemented on site over a period that saw a significant increase in personnel mobilisations; while the health award was for recognising a heat-related risk to workers in certain isolated work areas and addressing it by utilising a portable shade shelter that could be moved along as their work task moved and progressed. The way we manage safety starts with our six Critical Safety Essentials, and by integrating them into our planning, communication, and risk management processes, they continue to form the foundation of how we operate. We have increased our focus on strengthening HSE communication across the company, with a particular emphasis on lessons learned from incidents and active engineering solutions to avoid or eliminate significant safety hazards. An example of this is an engineered solution for the removal of an impact frame during maintenance work to prevent line of fire hand injuries. 40 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 QUALITY Quality is a key component of all areas of our business, from project solutions through to providing our clients with high-quality products. Our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001:2015, the internationally recognised standard for quality management. Our facilities across Australia hold certification to ISO 3834.2:2008, ‘Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials (Part 2: Comprehensive quality requirements)’, which demonstrates the Company’s welding management system meets the most stringent requirements. We also hold CC3 certification to the requirements of AS/NZS 5131:2016 ‘Structural Steelwork - Fabrication and Erection’. Along with our quality management system for governing quality assurance on a project, part of what makes Civmec different from others is our award-winning Project Controls System, Civtrac. It is a single platform capturing project delivery data from design to commissioning, providing key insights and controls to ensure delivery of a quality product on time and on budget. Continual investment has been made throughout the year into our Business Management Systems with a new Civtrac mobile application currently in development. Fundamental to our success, Civmec’s strategic orientation is supported by the Quality team, which develops and implements quality programs that identify and manage risk while driving improvement. Our Quality team ensures that our systems comply with certification standards and industry best practices, examining and revising our processes and procedures continuously throughout the lifespan of a project. ENVIRONMENT This year, there has been a significant focus on our sustainability performance and our business’s long-term effects on our external environment. Our attention remains on developing an environmentally conscientious culture through leadership, communication, and training, as we understand it is critical to our ongoing sustainability. Civmec is certified to ISO 14001:2015, the internationally recognised standard for environmental management, and we also hold platinum status with the Australian Steel Institute Environmental Sustainability Charter. During FY2021 we undertook many activities to support our sustainability. Some examples of this include: • committing to the development of a new sustainability charter and supporting procedures for launch in FY2022, which will set targets and hold us accountable for our carbon emissions; • assessing the feasibility of powering our current facilities with solar energy, and committing to assessing the performance of renewable energy options on all new facilities moving forward, including currently studying the economic, social and environmental costs and benefits associated with the implementation; and supporting the development of Western Australia’s critical battery mineral industry with constructability input for major lithium producers. • In addition to our existing measures, we continue to look for new ways to improve our environmental performance, focusing on resource and energy efficiency. Our continual improvement strategy is based on: • measuring and monitoring our inputs (energy, water, materials) and outputs (waste and emissions) to better understand our environmental impacts and track performance and improvement over time; • continually expanding and improving our environmental training materials and programs to communicate environmental requirements and raise awareness; improving our waste management system by reducing the amount of waste sent to landfills and increasing recycling rates; and investigating suitable opportunity for the utilisation of renewable energy options across our business. • • 41 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 3.2 Our People We understand the importance of offering a healthy workplace for employees to thrive in and are focused on promoting an environment that embraces an inclusive and diverse culture. Our employees remain the core of our business and their commitment and high performance is what drives our company’s success. LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT Civmec’s Registered Training Organisation (RTO 54625) continued to operate as usual through FY2021, despite some training restrictions imposed due to COVID-19. The restrictions, although minimal, did require the RTO to reduce class sizes to maintain social distancing and ensure worker safety. Despite this, enrolments increased by 30 per cent from 1,259 in FY2020 to 1,777 in FY2021. To accommodate the increase in enrolments, the RTO has developed new training initiatives to maximise operational efficiency whilst ensuring the integrity and quality of training is not compromised. These initiatives include moving some of the training modules to a Learning Management System (LMS) where e-learning can be delivered to our remote worksites via live video training sessions. We aim to ensure that the workforce is made up of individuals with diverse skills, values, 42 At Civmec, we value diversity and equal opportunity. backgrounds and experience to the benefit of Civmec. This now includes a number of nationally recognised units of competence taught in Mandarin, which is the first language of a portion of our workforce, with English being their second. Providing the option to study in their first language, we believe, will optimise comprehension of new learnings as well as promote inclusion in the workplace. Civmec is one of the few training organisations in Australia providing this service to our students and employees. We have increased our support of local high schools and colleges, providing coaching and mentoring to teachers, and guidance to Vocational Education Co-ordinators. One of the highlights of the year was the Seton College Tour. 140 year 10, 11 and 12 students were provided the opportunity to have a guided tour of the Henderson facility, led by the Learning and Development team. The students were provided with a running commentary of the facility and the current projects across the various sectors we operate. The tour route followed the journey of the steel, from laydown and fabrication through to final assembly. Cecil Andrews College “World of Work” was another highlight for Civmec, which gave the student cohort an opportunity to interact with some of the remote-controlled plant we utilise on our projects, and link their studies in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) to real world equipment and applications. CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 With a continually growing workforce, Civmec strives to create an environment where our people are supported and provided with opportunities to develop and enhance their careers. In this reporting period, we have increased our commitment and investment in Australian apprenticeships, traineeships and graduate engineer positions. There have been 150 apprentices, trainees and graduates across our operations during FY2021, representing a significant increase of 40 per cent across the business. Our apprentices include those in the metal trades (boilermakers and welders), bricklayers (for the refractory division), carpenters, mechanical, surface treatment and electrical trades; while our trainees provide functional support in business administration, human resources, quality control and logistics. With our HSE Graduate Program successfully upskilling and developing many HSE professionals since it was established in 2018, four of our graduates within the program have now completed their two-year term and progressed as HSE Advisors across our business. As a result of the success, we have expanded the intake and employed six new HSE graduates that have already commenced the two-year program. Our Graduate Engineer intake in FY2020 of five graduates increased to 20 for FY2021 and provides a formal structured training plan, which includes five rotations through the various disciplines of our company. In November 2020, we also launched our first formal Engineering Undergraduate Vacation Work Program, which consisted of seven young engineers who were engaged for a ten-week paid program. The undergraduates rotated through the business in order to better understand what Civmec offers through our operating sectors and they can consider returning to the company once they complete their studies. Australian traineeships overall have increased significantly in an effort to alleviate a perceived skills shortages in the Defence industry with the creation of traineeships in supply chain solutions and opportunities for school leavers in business administration. This financial year, we also increased support for our hosted apprentices with a dedicated full-time mentor and coach provided by Skill Hire, our apprenticeship partners. 37 new apprentices commenced with Civmec in FY2021, taking our total of hosted apprentices to 67. Five of our talented young apprentices received finalist nominations in their categories at the 2020 Skill Hire Awards. We were also extremely pleased to receive the Skill Hire “Host Safety Award for 2020” at this event. INCLUSION & DIVERSITY Civmec works tirelessly on building a workplace where people of varying backgrounds, sexual orientation, ages and gender identity or expression work together in an environment where everyone’s contribution is respected and acknowledged equally. We understand the importance 43 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 of the possibilities available in traditionally male occupations. Seven of our entry level female employees have chosen to complete a Company supported business administration traineeship. These opportunities have been provided to a variety of departments, including Administration Support, Payroll, Human Resources and Quality Control. diversity can bring to our business and remain committed to fostering an environment which is reflective of our core company values. Diversity in our workforce is fundamental to cultivating a balanced culture and enriches our perspectives, knowledge, and capabilities across the business. Throughout the financial year, we have seen an increased percentage of female employees in sectors such as apprenticeships, machine operators and drivers, trade support and management. Throughout operations and project delivery, our goal has been to continually promote opportunity for female engagement in traditionally male-dominated professions. As we are focusing our efforts at the grassroots level, we currently have three female apprentices: a Second Year Welding Apprentice who is currently working on the Offshore Patrol Vessels Project, a First Year Boilermaker Apprentice who started her career at Civmec through a pre-apprenticeship during the Christmas school holidays, deciding to commence an apprenticeship at the end of that period, and a first Year Mechanical Fitter Apprentice who commenced with us as a Trade Assistant on one of our Fly In, Fly Out (FIFO) projects, where her passion for a trade was identified and her employment progressed into an apprenticeship during the Eliwana Project. These females are important to our apprentice program and provide examples 44 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 INDIGENOUS ENGAGEMENT Civmec respects the land, culture, and heritage of Indigenous people. We are dedicated to creating a workplace that prioritises our relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander (ATSI) people and their communities with a significant focus on creating opportunities for ATSI people in our business and supply chain. During this financial year, across the business, six per cent of participants in our apprenticeship program are of ATSI descent. They are employed within our manufacturing, construction and maintenance areas. Two of these apprentices started as Trade Assistants on a project and progressed their career through an apprenticeship. We also have a painting apprentice who is a mature- age employee who wished to gain a trade skill after previous experience in the Navy and FIFO. Going forward, we aim to increase employee and community engagement in ATSI communities, and we strive to continue to provide ATSI people with equal training and job opportunities. We remain committed to utilising ATSI businesses for supply and subcontract opportunities. 45 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 3.3 Community Engagement Over the year, Civmec has contributed greatly to several community initiatives and, together with our employees, frequently raised funds for and volunteered time to various charitable causes. We have a long-term commitment to the communities we operate in and, as a proudly Australian business, we aim to employ local people and use local suppliers. CEO Sleepout This year, Civmec CEO Pat Tallon and Group Manager HR & IR Stephanie Baptist took part in the Vinnie’s CEO Sleepout. With the generous support of many, we were delighted to exceed our target and raise almost $60,000 for the cause, which will go towards helping to break the cycle of poverty and homelessness in our community. St Patrick’s Volunteering In December, we supported St Patrick’s Community Support Centre, a charity local to our Henderson facility, that provides services to struggling people and families. Many of our employees volunteered to lend a hand, packing Christmas hampers for those in our community that are homeless or vulnerable to homelessness. We were also lucky enough to be given a tour of their facility, seeing first-hand all the amazing support and services they provide to people in need. Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea In support of Cancer Council Australia, we participated in Australia’s Biggest Morning tea to raise much-needed funds to go towards vital cancer research, support services, prevention programs, and advocacy. Ruah Christmas Gift Donation Christmas can be a difficult time for many, so our people came together and donated gifts for children and women to Ruah Community Services. Ruah provides resources to those dealing with homelessness, domestic violence and chronic mental illness. 46 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Civmec remains committed to supporting the communities we operate in through partnerships, sponsorships and fundraising. In line with our Make A Difference value, we empower our employees to join us in assisting the communities and charity groups that we support. Foodbank Donation Drive-Thru In the lead up to Easter, our Henderson team generously donated food and other non-perishable supplies to the Foodbank WA Donation Drive-Thru campaign. We were able to drop off a utility vehicle load of donations, which was used by Foodbank, Australia’s largest food relief organisation, to create care hampers for West Australians experiencing homelessness. R U OK? Day The mental health and wellbeing of our people is important to Civmec and has been a particular focus for us in FY2021. This year, we again supported R U OK? Day, a national day of action that reminds Australians to ask each other, “Are you OK?”. By encouraging our employees to reach out and check in on one another, we hope to drive continued discussion around mental health, reducing the stigma and empowering our people to seek support when it’s needed. Containers for Change During the year, we implemented a new community initiative across our Henderson facility called Containers for Change. Every eligible container collected is worth ten cents, with all money raised going directly to St Patrick’s Community Support Centre. Their goal is to serve the community through providing holistic, supportive and quality care to those most in need through services, such as emergency relief, housing, meals, welfare, education, recreation and health. Clean Up Australia Day This year, as per many past years, Civmec employees took part in a ‘Business Clean Up’ in support of Clean Up Australia, cleaning up around the local area and helping to make a difference to our beautiful environment. Indigenous Partnerships Civmec is proud to work in partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (ATSI) businesses in our community, including the East West Pilbara Group Pty Ltd (EWPG) and EWP Yalagan Pty Ltd (EWP Yalagan). “We wholly endorse your organisation as one that ‘walks the walk’ when it comes to Indigenous engagement. This type of support not only helps our organisation prosper but creates benefits to our Indigenous employees, their families and wider communities.” - Nathan Martin, Director EWP Yalagan. Other Initiatives Our employees and project teams around Australia took part in several fundraising events for a range of charities throughout the year. We supported education, sporting organisations, indigenous initiatives, and charity groups. Some additional initiatives we have been involved in this financial year include Pink Ribbon Day, Jeans for Genes Day and support of the Kwinana Knights Women’s Football team. 47 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 3.4 Sustainability Reporting In line with SGX requirements, a Sustainability Report outlining our performance during FY2021 and our future strategies for improvement will be released in November 2021. Civmec understands the importance of sustainability reporting and creating a sustainable business model. The purpose of the report to be released is to enable key stakeholders to understand Civmec’s sustainability approach, actions, performance and key material issues for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (FY2021).

This corporate governance report (‘Report’) describes the Company’s corporate governance framework and practices that were in place during the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (‘FY2021’) with specific reference to the Principles and Provisions of the Singapore Code of Corporate Governance 2018 (the ‘Code’) and the 3rd edition of the Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’) Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (‘ASX Principles and Recommendations’), which is also available on the Company’s corporate website. In line with the commitment of the Company to maintaining high standards of corporate governance, the Company continually reviews its corporate governance processes to strive to comply with the Code. To the extent the Company’s practices may vary from the provisions of the Code for FY2021, the Company has explained how its practices are consistent with the intent of the relevant principles of the Code. The Board is pleased to report compliance of the Company with the Code, the Listing Manual of the Singapore Exchange Securities Limited (the ‘SGX-ST’), and the Listing Rules of the ASX, where applicable, except where otherwise stated. Board Matters The Board’s Conduct of Affairs Principle 1: The company is headed by an effective Board which is collectively responsible and works with Management for the long-term success of the company. Provision 1.1 Directors are fiduciaries who act objectively in the best interests of the company and hold Management accountable for performance. The Board puts in place a code of conduct and ethics, sets appropriate tone-from-the-top and desired organisational culture, and ensures proper accountability within the company. Directors facing conflicts of interest recuse themselves from discussions and decisions involving the issues of conflict. The Board’s primary role is to protect and enhance shareholders’ value and ensure that the Company is run according to the best international management and corporate governance practices, appropriate to the needs and development of the Group. The Board works closely with the senior management for the Company’s long-term success and continuously maintains the highest standards of behaviour and ethical conduct within the Group. The Board has adopted a formal code of conduct, and it requires all the Directors, senior management and employees to abide by the Company’s Standard Code of Conduct, which is available on its corporate website. Apart from its statutory duties and responsibilities, the Board’s functions include: • overseeing the management and affairs of the Group and approving the Group’s corporate strategy and directions; • implementing policies in relation to financial matters, which include risk management and internal control and compliance; • reviewing the financial performance of the Group, approves investment proposals and sets values and standards, including ethical standards for the Company and the Group; • ensuring that the Group has in place an appropriate risk management framework and setting the risk appetite within which the Board expects senior management to operate; • approving the appointment, and when necessary replacement, of the senior management personnel; and • developing and reviewing corporate governance principles and policies. 60 61 61 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) The Board’s Conduct of Affairs (continued) Principle 1 (continued) Provision 1.1 (continued) All Directors are aware of their fiduciary duties and exercise due diligence and independent judgement in ensuring that their decisions are objective and in the best interests of the Company. Directors who face conflicts of interest disclose their interests and voluntarily recuse themselves from discussions and decisions involving the issues of conflict. Provision 1.2 Directors understand the company’s business as well as their directorship duties (including their roles as Executive, Non-Executive and Independent Directors). Directors are provided with opportunities to develop and maintain their skills and knowledge at the company’s expense. The induction, training and development provided to new and existing Directors are disclosed in the company’s annual report. The Company encourages the Directors to learn and develop as Directors. The Directors may attend training, conferences and seminars which may have a bearing on their duties and contribution to the Board, organised by professional bodies, regulatory institutions and corporations at the Company’s expense, to keep themselves updated on the latest developments concerning the Group and to keep abreast of the latest regulatory changes. Each quarter, the Board was briefed and/or updated on recent changes to the accounting standards and industry developments and business initiatives. All the Board members are actively engaged and play an important role in ensuring good corporate governance within the Company. Visits to the Company’s business premises are arranged to acquaint the Non-Executive Directors with the Company’s operations and ensure that all the Directors are familiar with the Company’s business, policies and governance practices. Prior to their respective appointments to the Board, each of the Directors was given an orientation and induction programme to familiarise them with the Company’s business activities, strategic directions, policies and key new projects and have undertaken all appropriate checks (including the person’s character, experience, education, criminal record and bankruptcy history). In addition, newly appointed senior management personnel are subject to the same orientation, induction programme and appropriate checks in accordance with our internal onboarding policies and procedures before the personnel are introduced to the senior management team. Upon appointment of each Director and senior management personnel, the Company provides a services agreement to the Director and senior management personnel setting out their duties and obligations. Provision 1.3 The Board decides on matters that require its approval and clearly communicates this to Management in writing. Matters requiring board approval are disclosed in the Company’s annual report. The Board has delegated the day-to-day management of the Group to the senior management, headed by the Executive Chairman, Mr James Finbarr Fitzgerald, the Chief Executive Officer, Mr Patrick John Tallon and the Chief Operating Officer, Mr Kevin James Deery.

The names of the committee members, the terms of reference, any delegation of the Board’s authority to make decisions, and a summary of each committee’s activities, are disclosed in the company’s annual report. To assist in the execution of its responsibilities, the Board has established several Board Committees namely; Audit Committee (‘AC’), Nominating Committee (‘NC’), Remuneration Committee (‘RC’) and Risks and Conflicts Committee (‘RCC’). These committees function within clearly defined terms of references and operating procedures, which are reviewed on a regular basis. The effectiveness of these committees is also regularly monitored and reviewed by the Board. The roles and responsibilities of these committees are described in the following sections of this report. Provision 1.5 Directors attend and actively participate in Board and board committee meetings. The number of such meetings and each individual Director’s attendances at such meetings are disclosed in the company’s annual report. Directors with multiple board representations ensure that sufficient time and attention are given to the affairs of each company. The Board meets on a regular basis and when necessary, to address any specific significant matters that may arise. Board meetings are scheduled in advance. The Constitution of the Company provides for Directors to conduct meetings by teleconferencing or videoconferencing or other similar means of communication whereby all persons participating in the meeting are able to hear each other. The Board and Board Committees may also make decisions by way of circulating resolutions. The number of Board and Board Committee meetings held and attended by each Board member during the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (‘FY2021’) is set out below: Board Committees Board Audit Committee Remuneration Committee Nominating Committee Risks and Conflicts Committee 4 4 No. of Meetings Attended 4 4 4 4 4 4 4* 4* 4* 4 4 4 2 2* 2* 2* 2 2 2 2 2* 2* 2* 2 2 2 4 4* 4* 4* 4 4 4 No. of Meetings Held James Finbarr Fitzgerald Patrick John Tallon Kevin James Deery Chong Teck Sin Wong Fook Choy Sunny Douglas Owen Chester * By Invitation 62 63 63 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) The Board’s Conduct of Affairs (continued) Principle 1 (continued) Provision 1.6 Management provides directors with complete, adequate and timely information prior to meetings and on an on-going basis to enable them to make informed decisions and discharge their duties and responsibilities. The Board is informed of all material events and transactions as and when they occur. The senior management consults Board members as necessary and appropriate. Detailed Board papers, agenda and related material, background or explanatory information relating to matters to be discussed are sent out to the Directors, usually at least a week prior to each meeting, so that all Directors may better understand the issues beforehand, allowing more time at meetings for discussion and deliberations. Directors are provided with a copy of documents containing a wide range of relevant information, including, quarterly and annual financial results, progress reports of the Group’s operations, corporate developments, business developments, management information, sector performance, budgets, forecast, capital expenditure and personnel statistics, reports from both external and internal auditors, significant project updates, business strategies, risk analysis and assessments and relevant regulatory updates. The senior management’s proposals to the Board for approval include background and explanatory information such as, resources needed, risk analysis and mitigation strategies, financial impact, regulatory implications, expected outcomes, conclusions and recommendations. Employees who can provide additional insight into matters to be discussed will be present at the relevant time during the Board and Board Committee meetings. In order to keep Directors abreast of the Group’s operations, the Directors are also updated on initiatives and developments on the Group’s business as soon as practicable and/or possible and on an ongoing basis. The Company Secretaries administer and are available to attend Board meetings and assist the Chairman in implementing appropriate Board procedures to facilitate compliance with the Company’s Constitution. The Company Secretaries also ensure that the requirements of the Companies Act (Chapter 50), SGX-ST Listing Manual, ASX Listing Rules and other governance matters applicable to the Company are complied with. The Company Secretaries work together with the Company to ensure that the Company complies with all relevant rules and regulations. All Directors are updated regularly on changes to the Company’s policies and are kept updated on relevant new laws and regulations including Directors’ duties and responsibilities, corporate governance and financial reporting standards. Newly appointed Directors are given briefings by the Management on the business activities of the Group. Provision 1.7 Directors have separate and independent access to Management, the Company secretary, and external advisers (where necessary) at the company’s expense. The appointment and removal of the company secretary is a decision of the Board as a whole. The Board has separate and independent access to the senior management of the Company and the Company Secretaries at all times. Requests for information are dealt with promptly by the senior management. The Company Secretaries are appointed by the Board and are accountable to the Board, through the Chairman, on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the Board. The removal of the Company Secretaries are subject to the approval of the Board. The Company Secretaries work closely with the Chairman to manage the flow of information between the Board, its committees and senior management across the Company. The Board in fulfilling its responsibilities can, as a collective body or individually as Board members, when deemed fit, direct the Company and at the Company’s expense, appoint independent professionals to render advice. 6464 65 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Board Composition and Guidance Principle 2: The Board has an appropriate level of independence and diversity of thought and background in its composition to enable it to make decisions in the best interests of the company. Provision 2.1 An ‘independent’ director is one who is independent in conduct, character and judgement, and has no relationship with the company, its related corporations, its substantial shareholders or its officers that could interfere, or be reasonably perceived to interfere, with the exercise of the director’s independent business judgement in the best interests of the company. The independence of each Director is reviewed annually by the Nominating Committee (‘NC’) in accordance with the Code’s definition of independence. Each Independent Director is required to declare their independence by duly completing and submitting a ‘Confirmation of Independence’ form. The declaration requires each Director to assess whether they consider themselves independent and not having any of the relationships identified in the Code. Each Director is required to declare any circumstances in which they may be considered non-independent. The NC reviews the Confirmation of Independence to determine whether a Director is independent. The NC also considers the actions and conduct of the Independent Directors, including in formal Board meetings, to assess their independence. The NC has carefully reviewed and subsequently determined that the Independent Directors, namely Mr Chong Teck Sin, Mr Wong Fook Choy Sunny and Mr Douglas Owen Chester, are independent. Provision 2.2 Independent directors make up a majority of the Board where the Chairman is not independent As at the date of this Report, the Board comprises six (6) Directors, three (3) of whom are Executive Directors and the remaining three (3) Directors being Independent Directors who make up half of the Board. No individual, or group of individuals, dominates the Board’s decision-making as half of the Board consist of Independent Directors. The Company does not have Independent Directors make up a majority of the Board where the current Chairman is not independent. Board diversity of thought and professional background of Directors brings a range of longer term benefits to the Company more than a majority number of Independent Directors. Collectively, the Executive Directors and Independent Directors bring a wide range of experience and expertise as they all currently occupy or have occupied senior positions in industry and/or government, and as such, each contributes significantly to Board decisions. In order to strengthen the independence of the Board, the Company has appointed a Lead Independent Director, Mr Chong Teck Sin, to coordinate and lead the Independent Directors, providing a non-executive perspective and balanced viewpoint. The Lead Independent Director will represent the Independent Directors in responding to shareholders’ questions and comments that are directed to the Independent Directors as a group. Provision 2.3 Non-executive directors make up a majority of the Board As at the date of this Report, the Board comprises six (6) Directors, three (3) of whom are Executive Directors and the remaining three (3) Directors being Independent Directors who make up half of the Board. While Non-Executive Directors do not make up a majority of the Board, the Board considers the management and oversight function with Executive Directors heavily involved in management activities while Non-Executive Directors exercise oversight role brings a range of longer term benefits to the Company more than a majority number of Non-Executive Directors. Diversity of thought and professional background of Directors allow decisions to be made in the best interest of the Company. 64 65 65 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Board Composition and Guidance (continued) Principle 2 (continued) Provision 2.3 (continued) The Non-Executive Directors provide constructive review and assist the Board to facilitate and develop proposals on strategy and monitor the performance of the senior management in meeting agreed objectives. The Non-Executive Directors have full access to and cooperation from the Company’s senior management and officers. They have full discretion to have separate meetings without the presence of senior management and to invite any Directors or officers to the meetings as and when warranted. Provision 2.4 The Board and board committees are of an appropriate size, and comprise directors who as a group provide the appropriate balance and mix of skills, knowledge, experience, and other aspects of diversity such as gender and age, so as to avoid groupthink and foster constructive debate. The board diversity policy and progress made towards implementing the board diversity policy, including objectives, are disclosed in the Company’s annual report. The Board, in concurrence with the Nominating Committee (‘NC’), is of the view that the current Board and the Board Committees comprise an appropriate balance and diversity of skills, experience and knowledge of the Company, which provides broad diversity of expertise such as accounting or finance, business or management experience, industry knowledge, strategic planning experience and customer-based experience and knowledge who, as a group, provide core competencies necessary to meet the Company’s requirements. Further details on the key information and the profile of the Directors including their academic and professional qualifications, and other directorships in other listed companies is set out on related pages of this annual report. The current Board composition provides a diversity of skill, experience, and knowledge to the Company as follows: Core Competencies Business Management Accounting or finance Legal or corporate governance Strategic planning experience Relevant industry knowledge or experience Gender Male Female Balance and Diversity of the Board Number of Directors Proportion of Board 6 6 6 6 4 100% 100% 100% 100% 67% Number of Directors Proportion of Board 6 0 100% 0 The Company values diversity and equal opportunity and has various policies in place (which includes the diversity policy, equal opportunity policy, and aboriginal peoples policy, that are available on its corporate website) to ensure that its Board, senior management and workforce is comprised of individuals with diverse skills, values, backgrounds and experience to the benefit of the Group. Diversity refers to characteristics such as age, gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, disability and ethnicity. All appointments and employment of employees including Directors are based strictly on merit and equal opportunity and not driven by any gender bias. Nevertheless, the Company endeavours to include further additional attributes when there is a need to bring in fresh perspectives and enhancements. The composition and renewal of the Board, including the need for progressive refreshing of the Board, is reviewed on an annual basis by the NC to ensure that the Board has the appropriate balance and mix of skills, knowledge, expertise, experience and other aspects of diversity such as gender and age, so as to avoid group think and foster constructive debate and possesses the necessary competencies for effective decision making. The Company’s annual Sustainability Report clearly articulates the Company’s strategy, targets, performance and future focus in relation to diversity. 6666 67 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Board Composition and Guidance (continued) Principle 2 (continued) Provision 2.5 Non-executive directors and/or independent Directors, led by the independent Chairman or other independent director as appropriate, meet regularly without the presence of Management. The chairman of such meetings provides feedback to the Board and/or Chairman as appropriate. In order to strengthen the independence of the Board, the Company has appointed a Lead Independent Director, Mr Chong Teck Sin, to co-ordinate and lead the Independent Directors, providing a non-executive perspective and balanced viewpoint. The Independent Directors communicate regularly without the presence of the other Executive Directors and senior management, to discuss matters such as succession and leadership development planning, Board processes and corporate governance matters. Feedback on the outcomes of these discussions is provided to the Executive Chairman. To facilitate an effective review of the senior management, the Non-Executive Directors meet as and when necessary and at least once a year with Auditors without the presence of the senior management. The Board and senior management fully appreciate that a fundamental of good corporate governance is an effective and robust Board whose members engage in open and constructive debate and challenge senior management on its assumptions and proposals. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Principle 3: There is a clear division of responsibilities between the leadership of the Board and Management, and no one individual has unfettered powers of decision-making. Provision 3.1 The Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer (‘CEO’) are separate persons to ensure an appropriate balance of power, increased accountability, and greater capacity of the Board for independent decision making. Mr James Finbarr Fitzgerald is the Executive Chairman of the Company, while Mr Patrick John Tallon is an Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer (‘CEO’). The Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer are not related. Provision 3.2 The Board establishes and sets out in writing the division of responsibilities between the Chairman and the CEO. Whilst the Board does not have an independent Chairman, the roles of the Executive Chairman and that of the CEO are clearly delineated. The Board believes that while the Chairman is not independent, the current composition of the Board with its combined skills and capability, and its mix of experience, best serve the interests of shareholders. The two roles are separated whereby the Executive Chairman bears responsibility for providing guidance on the corporate direction of the Group and leadership to the Board, and the CEO has executive responsibility for the Company’s day-to-day business. Provision 3.3 The Board has a lead independent director to provide leadership in situations where the Chairman is conflicted, and especially when the Chairman is not independent. The lead independent director is available to shareholders where they have concerns and for which contact through the normal channels of communication with the Chairman or Management are inappropriate or inadequate. The Company has appointed a Lead Independent Director, Mr Chong Teck Sin. As well as representing the views of the Independent Directors, he is also available to shareholders and to facilitate a two-way flow of information between shareholders, the Executive Chairman and the Board. In addition, all the Board Committees are led and solely comprise of Independent Directors. 66 67 67 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Board Membership Principle 4: The Board has a formal and transparent process for the appointment and re-appointment of directors, taking into account the need for progressive renewal of the Board. Provision 4.1 The Board establishes a Nominating Committee (‘NC’) to make recommendations to the Board on relevant matters relating to: (a) the review of succession plans for directors, in particular the appointment and/or replacement of the Chairman, the CEO and key management personnel; (b) the process and criteria for evaluation of the performance of the Board, its board committees and directors; (c) the review of training and professional development programmes for the Board and its directors; and (d) the appointment and re-appointment of directors (including alternate directors, if any). The Company had established an NC to make recommendations to the Board on all board appointments. The formal terms of reference of the NC are to: • nominate senior management personnel, Directors (including Independent Directors) taking into consideration their competencies, contribution, performance and ability to commit sufficient time and attention to the affairs of the Group and considering their respective commitments outside the Group; • review and recommend to the Board the composition of the Audit Committee, Remuneration Committee and Risks and Conflicts Committee; • re-nominate Directors for re-election in accordance with the Constitution at each AGM and having regard to the Director’s contribution and performance; • determine annually whether or not a Director of the Company is independent; • decide whether or not a Director is able to and has been adequately carrying out their duties as a Director; • assess the performance of the Board annually as a whole and the individual contribution of each Director and senior management personnel to the effectiveness of the Board; • review and recommend succession plans for Directors and senior management, in particular the Executive Chairman and the CEO; and • review and recommend training and professional development programmes for the Board and senior management personnel. The Company does not have a practice of appointing alternate Directors. During the reporting period of the year, the NC has: • reviewed the structure, size and composition of the Board and Board Committees; • reviewed the independence of Directors; • reviewed and undertaken the process for evaluating the Board, individual Directors, and senior management personnel performance; • reviewed results of performance evaluation and provided feedback to the Chairman and Board Committees; • reviewed the need for progressive refreshing of the Board and provided feedback to the Chairman and Board Committees; • reviewed succession planning for the Chairman, CEO and senior management personnel and notified the Board; and • discussed information required to be reported under the 2018 Code or Listing Manual. 6868 69 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Board Membership (continued) Principle 4 (continued) Provision 4.2 The NC comprises at least three directors, the majority of whom, including the NC Chairman, are independent. The lead independent director, if any, is a member of the NC. The NC comprises of three members, all of whom including the NC Chairman are Independent Non-Executive Directors: Mr Douglas Owen Chester Mr Chong Teck Sin Mr Wong Fook Choy Sunny NC Chairman Member and Lead Independent Director Member Provision 4.3 The company discloses the process for the selection, appointment and re-appointment of directors to the Board, including the criteria used to identify and evaluate potential new directors and channels used in searching for appropriate candidates in the company’s annual report. The process for the selection and appointment (or re-appointment) of Board members is as follows: • the NC evaluates the balance of skills, knowledge and experience of the Board and, in light of such evaluation and in consultation with the Board, prepares a description of the role and the essential and desirable competencies for a particular appointment (or re-appointment); • if required, the NC may engage consultants to undertake research on, or assess, candidates for new positions on the Board; • the NC meets with short-listed candidates to assess their suitability and ensure that the candidates are aware of the expectations; and • the NC makes recommendations to the Board for approval. Pursuant to Article 118 of the Company’s Constitution, all the Directors are required to retire from office at every AGM of the Company. After due review, the Board has accepted the recommendation of the NC and, accordingly, the below named Directors will be offering themselves for re-election at the forthcoming AGM: 1. James Finbarr Fitzgerald 2. Patrick John Tallon 3. Kevin James Deery 4. Chong Teck Sin 5. Wong Fook Choy Sunny 6. Douglas Owen Chester Provision 4.4 The NC determines annually, and as and when circumstances require, if a director is independent, having regard to the circumstances set forth in Provision 2.1. Directors disclose their relationships with the company, its related corporations, its substantial shareholders or its officers, if any, which may affect their independence, to the Board. If the Board, having taken into account the views of the NC, determines that such directors are independent notwithstanding the existence of such relationships, the company discloses the relationships and its reasons in its annual report. The independence of each Director is reviewed annually by the Nominating Committee (‘NC’) in accordance with the Code’s definition of independence. Each Independent Director is required to declare their independence by duly completing and submitting a ‘Confirmation of Independence’ form. The declaration requires each Director to assess whether they consider themselves independent and not having any of the relationships identified in the Code. Each Director is required to declare any circumstances in which they may be considered non-independent. The NC reviews the Confirmation of Independence to determine whether a Director is independent. The NC also considers the actions and conduct of the Independent Directors, including in formal Board meetings, to assess their independence. The NC has carefully reviewed and subsequently determined that the Independent Directors namely Mr Chong Teck Sin, Mr Wong Fook Choy Sunny and Mr Douglas Owen Chester, are independent. 68 69 69 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Board Membership (continued) Principle 4 (continued) Provision 4.5 The NC ensures that new directors are aware of their duties and obligations. The NC also decides if a director is able to and has been adequately carrying out his or her duties as a director of the company. The company discloses in its annual report the listed company directorships and principal commitments of each director, and where a director holds a significant number of such directorships and commitments, it provides the NC’s and Board’s reasoned assessment of the ability of the director to diligently discharge his or her duties. The dates of Director’s initial appointment, last re-election and their directorships are set out below: Name of Director Date of Initial Appointment Date of Last Re-election Present Directorships in Listed Companies Past Directorships in Listed Companies(2) James Finbarr Fitzgerald 27 March 2012 30 October 2020 Patrick John Tallon 27 March 2012 30 October 2020 Kevin James Deery 27 March 2012 30 October 2020 Chong Teck Sin 27 March 2012 30 October 2020 Wong Fook Choy Sunny 27 March 2012 30 October 2020 - - - Changan Minsheng APLL Logistics Co., Ltd(1) InnoTeck Limited AIMS APAC REITS Management Limited Mencast Holdings Ltd Excelpoint Technology Ltd InnoTeck Limited - - - - KTL Global Ltd Douglas Owen Chester 2 November 2012 30 October 2020 - - Notes: (1) Listed on Hong Kong Stock Exchange (2) Past directorships within the past 3 years The NC has considered and taken the view that it would not be appropriate at this time to set a limit on the number of listed Company directorships that a Director may hold. Directors have different capabilities, the nature of the organisations in which they hold appointments and the committees on which they serve are of different complexities, and accordingly, each Director would personally determine the demands of their competing directorships and obligations and assess the number of listed Company directorships they could hold and serve effectively. Currently, none of the Directors hold more than four (4) directorships in other listed companies. In addition, the NC also determines annually whether a Director with multiple Board representations is able to and has been adequately carrying out their duties as a Director of the Company. The NC takes into account the results of the assessment of the effectiveness of the individual Director and the respective Directors’ actual conduct on the Board. The NC is satisfied that for FY2021 sufficient time and attention have been devoted by the Directors to the affairs of the Company and the Group. As such, there is presently no need to implement internal guidelines to address their competing time commitments notwithstanding that some of the Directors have multiple Board representations. The NC will, however, continue to review, from time to time, the Board representations and other principal commitments to ensure that Directors continue to meet the demands of the Group and are able to discharge their duties adequately. 7070 71 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Board Performance Principle 5: The Board undertakes a formal annual assessment of its effectiveness as a whole, and that of each of its board committees and individual directors. Provision 5.1 The NC recommends for the Board’s approval the objective performance criteria and process for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board as a whole, and of each board committee separately, as well as the contribution by the Chairman and each individual director to the Board. For the year under review, the NC held two (2) meetings and evaluated the Board’s performance as a whole and the contribution of each Director to the effectiveness of the Board. The NC has adopted a formal process and criteria to assess the effectiveness of the Board and each of the Directors. The evaluation is carried out annually. Provision 5.2 The company discloses in its annual report how the assessments of the Board, its board committees and each director have been conducted, including the identity of any external facilitator and its connection, if any, with the company or any of its directors The NC undertakes an annual formal review and evaluation of both the Board’s performance as a whole, as well as individual Director’s performance, such as Board commitment, standard of conduct, competency, training & development and interaction with other Directors, senior management and stakeholders. All Directors complete an evaluation questionnaire designed to seek their view on the various aspects of their individual and Board performance so as to assess the overall effectiveness of the Board. The completed questionnaire is collated, and the results of the evaluation exercise are subsequently considered by the NC, before making recommendations to the Board. The Chairman of the Board may take actions as may be appropriate according to the results of the performance evaluation, which will be based on objective performance criteria proposed by the NC and approved by the Board. The performance of individual Directors is assessed based on factors which include their attendance, participation at the Board and Board committee meetings and contributions to the Board in long range planning and the business strategies as well as their industry and business knowledge. Each member of the NC abstains from voting on any resolutions and making any recommendations and/or participating in any deliberations of the NC in respect of the assessment of their performance and re-nomination as a Director. The NC conducted a performance evaluation of the Board and Board Committees for FY2021 consistent with this process and determined that all Directors have demonstrated full commitment to their roles and contributed effectively in the discharge their duties. Both the NC and the Board are of the view that the Board has met its performance objectives for FY2021. Remuneration Matters Principle 6: The Board has a formal and transparent procedure for developing policies on director and executive remuneration, and for fixing the remuneration packages of individual directors and key management personnel. No director is involved in deciding his or her own remuneration. Provision 6.1 The Board establishes a Remuneration Committee (‘RC’) to review and make recommendations to the Board on: (a) a framework of remuneration for the Board and key management personnel; and (b) the specific remuneration packages for each director as well as for the key management personnel. The Company has established a Remuneration Committee (RC) to make recommendations to the Board on remuneration packages of individual Directors and key senior management personnel. 70 71 71 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Remuneration Matters (continued) Principle 6 (continued) Provision 6.1 (continued) The formal terms of reference of the RC, are to: • recommend to the Board a framework of remuneration for the Directors and key senior management personnel; • determine specific remuneration packages for each Executive Director; • review annually the remuneration of employees related to the Directors and substantial shareholders to ensure that their remuneration packages are in line with the staff remuneration guidelines and commensurate with their respective job scopes and level of responsibilities; and • perform such other acts as may be required by the SGX-ST and the Code, or ASX, from time to time. The recommendations of the RC are submitted for endorsement by the entire Board. Each member of the RC abstains from voting on any resolutions in respect of their own remuneration package. Also, in the event that a member of the RC is related to the employee under review, they will abstain from participating in that review. Directors are not involved in the discussion and in deciding their own remuneration. Provision 6.2 The RC comprises at least three directors. All members of the RC are Non-Executive Directors, the majority of whom, including the RC Chairman, are independent. The RC comprises of three (3) members, all of whom including the RC Chairman are Independent Non-Executive Directors: Mr Wong Fook Choy Sunny Mr Chong Teck Sin Mr Douglas Owen Chester RC Chairman Member and Lead Independent Director Member Provision 6.3: The RC considers all aspects of remuneration, including termination terms, to ensure they are fair. The RC has established a framework of remuneration for the Board and key senior management personnel covering all aspects of remuneration but not limited to Directors’ fees, salaries, allowances, bonuses, incentive schemes and benefits-in- kind. The RC also oversees the administration of the Civmec Limited Employee Share Option Scheme (‘CESOS’), the Civmec Limited Performance Share Plan (‘CPSP’) and the Civmec Limited Performance Rights Plan (‘CPRP’) upon the terms of reference as defined in the CESOS, CPSP and CPRP. The CESOS, CPSP and CPRP were established on 27 March 2012, 25 October 2012 and 25 October 2019 respectively, with a 10-year tenure commencing on the establishment date. The Company has a procedure that governs the Directors and senior management personnel dealing in securities trading. The securities trading procedure reflects the Corporations Act 2001 prohibition on senior management personnel and their closely related parties from hedging the senior management personnel’s incentive remuneration. The senior management personnel, and their immediate family and controlled entities are prohibited from entering into any arrangement that would have the effect of limiting the senior management personnel’s exposure to risk relating to an element of the senior management personnel’s remuneration that is unvested, or is vested but remains subject to a holding lock. The RC reviews the fairness and reasonableness of the termination clauses of the service agreements of Executive Directors to ensure that such contracts of service contain fair and reasonable termination clauses which are not overly generous, with an aim to be fair and avoid rewarding poor performance. The RC is of the view that it is currently not necessary to use contractual provisions to allow the Company to reclaim incentive components of remuneration from the Executive Directors and key senior management personnel in exceptional circumstances of misstatement of financial statements, or of misconduct resulting in financial loss to the Company and the Group. The Executive Directors owe a fiduciary duty to the Company and the Company should be able to avail itself to remedies against the Executive Directors and key senior management personnel in the event of such exceptional circumstances of breach of fiduciary duty. 7272 73 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Remuneration Matters (continued) Principle 6 (continued) Provision 6.3 (continued) During the reporting period of the year, the RC has: • reviewed and approved remuneration for Executives which includes salary, Short Term and Long Term incentives; • reviewed benchmarking of fees for Directors; • reviewed the remuneration packages of employees in the Group which includes salary adjustments and bonus; and • reviewed the remuneration package of the Executive Directors and CEO which includes salary, Short Term and Long Term incentives. Provision 6.4 The company discloses the engagement of any remuneration consultants and their independence in the company’s annual report. The RC has access to expert professional advice on human resource and remuneration matters whenever there is a need to consult externally. During the financial year, the fixed remuneration of executives was benchmarked against peers based on the industry salary surveys sourced from AON Hewitt McDonald. Level and Mix Remuneration Principle 7: The level and structure of remuneration of the Board and key management personnel are appropriate and proportionate to the sustained performance and value creation of the company, taking into account the strategic objectives of the company. Provision 7.1 A significant and appropriate proportion of executive directors’ and key management personnel’s remuneration is structured so as to link rewards to corporate and individual performance. Performance-related remuneration is aligned with the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders and promotes the long-term success of the company. Executive Directors and key senior management personnel remuneration comprises a fixed and a variable component, the latter of which is in the form of a bonus linked to the performance of the individual as well as the Group. In addition, short- term and long-term incentives, such as the CESOS, CPSP and CPRP, are in place to strengthen the pay-for-performance framework by rewarding and recognising the key executives’ contributions to the growth of the Group. This is designed to align remuneration with the interests of shareholders and link rewards to corporate and individual performance so as to promote long-term sustainability of the Group. During FY2021, no Share Options under the CESOS were granted, as required under the ASX Listing Rules. Refer to the Directors’ Statement for details of Performance Rights granted to Executive Directors and key senior management personnel. Provision 7.2 The remuneration of non-executive directors is appropriate to the level of contribution, taking into account factors such as effort, time spent, and responsibilities. The remuneration of the Independent Directors is in the form of a fixed fee which is subject to shareholders’ approval at the AGM. Each member of the RC abstains from voting on any resolution, participating in any deliberation of the RC, and making any recommendation in respect of their own remuneration. The Independent Directors’ fees were derived using the fee structure as follows: Independent Director who is the Chairman of the Audit Committee Other Independent Director Annual Fees (S$) 88,000 77,000 72 73 73 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Level and Mix Remuneration (continued) Provision 7.3 Remuneration is appropriate to attract, retain and motivate the directors to provide good stewardship of the company and key management personnel to successfully manage the company for the long term. In making its recommendations to the Board on the level and mix of remuneration, the RC strives to be competitive, linking rewards with performance. It takes into consideration the essential factors to attract, retain and motivate the Directors and senior management needed to run the Company successfully, linking rewards to corporate and individual performance, and aligning their interest with those of the shareholders. The Company has renewed the service agreements with the Executive Directors, Mr James Finbarr Fitzgerald, Mr Patrick John Tallon and Mr Kevin James Deery. Each service agreement is valid for a period of three (3) years with effect from the date of expiry of the previous period. During the renewal period of three (3) years, either party may terminate the Service Agreement at any time by giving to the other party not less than six (6) months’ notice in writing, or in lieu of notice, payment of amount equivalent to six (6) months’ salary. The Executive Directors do not receive Director’s fees. Pursuant to Article 118 of the Company’s Constitution, all the Directors (including Independent Directors) are required to retire from office at every AGM of the Company, meaning that the Independent Directors are appointed for a one year term when elected. The remuneration packages of the Executive Directors and the key senior management personnel are based on service agreements and their remuneration is determined having due regard to the performance of the individuals, the Group as well as market trends. Principle 8: The company is transparent on its remuneration policies, level and mix of remuneration, the procedure for setting remuneration, and the relationships between remuneration, performance and value creation. Provision 8.1 The company discloses in its annual report the policy and criteria for setting remuneration, as well as names, amounts and breakdown of remuneration of: (a) each individual director and the CEO; and (b) at least the top five key management personnel (who are not directors or the CEO) in bands no wider than S$250,000 and in aggregate the total remuneration paid to these key management personnel. For competitive reasons and the sensitive nature of such information, the Board is of the opinion that it is in the best interests of the Company to not disclose remuneration of each individual Director for the year ended 30 June 2021. Instead, the Company discloses the bands of remuneration in the following tables to avoid such information being exploited by competitors and to maintain personal confidentiality on remuneration matters: 7474 75 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Level and Mix Remuneration (continued) Principle 8 (continued) Provision 8.1 (continued) Name of Director Salary Bonus For the year ended 30 June 2021 Directors’ Fees Allowances and Other Benefits A$650,000 to A$899,999 James Finbarr Fitzgerald Patrick John Tallon Kevin James Deery Below A$250,000 Chong Teck Sin Douglas Owen Chester Wong Fook Choy Sunny 73% 73% 72% - - - 22% 22% 22% - - - - - - 100% 100% 100% 5% 5% 5% - - - Total 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% Details of remuneration paid to key senior management personnel (who are not Directors of the Company) of the Group for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 are set out below: For the year ended 30 June 2021 Name of Key Executive Designation Salary Bonus A$300,000 to A$550,000 Rodney Bowes Adam Goldsmith Mylon Manusiu David Power Charles Sweeney Executive Group Manager Proposals Executive Group Manager Operational Support Executive General Manager Maintenance Executive General Manager Manufacturing Executive General Manager Construction 76% 76% 78% 69% 88% 15% 15% 17% 23% 3% Allowances and Other Benefits 9% 9% 5% 8% 9% Total 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% The annual aggregate remuneration paid to all the above-mentioned Directors and key senior management personnel of the Group is A$5,218,000 (2020: A$4,405,000 ) in FY2021.

Risk Management and Internal Controls Principle 9: The Board is responsible for the governance of risk and ensures that Management maintains a sound system of risk management and internal controls, to safeguard the interests of the company and its shareholders. Provision 9.1 The Board determines the nature and extent of the significant risks which the company is willing to take in achieving its strategic objectives and value creation. The Board sets up a Board Risk Committee to specifically address this, if appropriate. The Company has established a Risks and Conflicts Committee (RCC) to advise and make recommendations to the Board on risk and conflict matters. The RCC is guided by its Terms of Reference which highlights its primary responsibilities are to: • review and monitor the Group’s risk management framework and activities, including the Group’s levels of risk tolerance and risk policies; • report to the Board regarding the Group’s risk exposures, including the review risk assessment model used to monitor the risk exposures and senior management’s views on the acceptable and appropriate level of risk faced by the Group’s Business Units; • recommend and adopt appropriate measures to control and mitigate the business risks of the Group, as and when these may arise; and • perform any other functions as may be agreed by the Board. 7676 77 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Risk Management and Internal Controls (continued) Principle 9 (continued) Provision 9.1 (continued) During the reporting period of the year, the RCC has: • reviewed the Risk Register and Risk Management Framework; • requested revisions to the Risk Mitigation Plan presented by senior management to mitigate and monitor the risk exposure; • reviewed the Project Risk and Opportunity Reporting Improvements; and • reviewed the Policies adopted by the Company such as Bribery & Corruption Policy and Procedures and the Code of Conduct. The RCC reviews all significant control policies and procedures and highlights all significant risk matters to the Board for discussion and to take appropriate actions, if required. The RCC comprises three (3) members, all of whom, including the RCC Chairman are Independent Non-Executive Directors: Mr Chong Teck Sin Mr Douglas Owen Chester Mr Wong Fook Choy Sunny RCC Chairman and Lead Independent Director Member Member Provision 9.2 The Board requires and discloses in the company’s annual report that it has received assurance from: (a) the CEO and the Chief Financial Officer (‘CFO’) that the financial records have been properly maintained and the financial statements give a true and fair view of the company’s operations and finances; and (b) the CEO and other key management personnel who are responsible, regarding the adequacy and effectiveness of the company’s risk management and internal control systems. The Group’s internal controls and systems are designed to provide reasonable assurance on the integrity and reliability of the financial information and to safeguard and maintain accountability of its assets. Procedures are in place to identify major business risks and to evaluate potential financial effects, as well as for the authorisation of capital expenditure and investments. The external auditors carry out, in the course of their statutory audit, an annual review of the effectiveness of the Group’s key internal controls, including financial, operational, compliance, information technology controls as well as risk management systems to the extent of their scope as laid out in their audit plan. Any material weaknesses in internal controls, together with recommendations for improvement, are reported to the AC and RCC. The Company’s internal audit function prepares an annual internal audit plan, which takes account of the Company’s key risks and other assurance activities performed, enabling internal audit resources to be targeted to areas of greatest value across the Company’s operations, including group and subsidiary structures. Processes subject to internal audit include financial, administrative, operational and project specific activities and systems. The internal audit function provides advice on the effectiveness of risk management processes and material internal controls, recommends corrective actions and control improvements and follows up on the implementation of action plans designed by management to address any control deficiencies or improvement opportunities. Internal audit reports containing internal audit results, recommendations and agreed action plans are presented to the AC on a quarterly basis. The Company appoints internal auditors to carry out a review of the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s key internal controls, including financial, operational, compliance and information technology controls as well as risk management systems to the extent of their scope as laid out in their audit plan. 76 77 77 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Risk Management and Internal Controls (continued) Principle 9 (continued) Provision 9.2 (continued) In the absence of evidence to the contrary, the Board is satisfied the system of internal controls maintained by the Company and that was in place throughout the financial year and up to the date of this report provides reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material financial misstatements or losses, and includes the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records, the reliability of financial information, compliance with appropriate legislation, regulations and best practices, and the identification and containment of financial, operational and compliance risks. Based on the risk management and internal control systems established and implemented by the Group, and work conducted by the internal auditors, external auditors and our internal audit team, the Board, with the concurrence of the AC, is satisfied the Company’s system of internal controls and risk management procedures maintained by the Group are adequate and effective to meet the needs of the Company in addressing the financial, operational, compliance, information technology controls and risk management systems in the Group’s current business environment, with no material weaknesses identified. The Board has received assurances from the CEO and Acting Chief Financial Officer that: (i) the financial records have been properly maintained (and the financial statements comply with the appropriate accounting standards) and the financial statements give a true and fair view of the Company’s operations and finances; and (ii) the Company’s risk management and internal control systems are adequate and effective. The Board notes that all internal control systems are designed to manage rather than eliminate risks and no system of internal controls could provide absolute assurance against the occurrence of material errors, poor judgment in decision-making, human error losses, fraud or other irregularities. The Company will publish its Sustainability Report later in 2021, which will further consider the management of any material economic, environmental and social sustainability risks faced by the Group. Audit Committee Principle 10: The Board has an Audit Committee (‘AC’) which discharges its duties objectively.

The internal audit function has unfettered access to all the company’s documents, records, properties and personnel, including the AC, and has appropriate standing within the company. The Board recognises the importance of maintaining an internal audit function, independent of the activities it audits, to maintain a sound system of internal control within the Company to safeguard shareholders’ investments and the Company’s assets. The Company’s internal audit function is outsourced to Deloitte, which is one of the Big Four multinational accounting organisations and it is independent of the Company’s business activities. The internal audit team that provide expertise and industry insights to strengthen the Company’s governance and risk management on an annual basis and comprises a Director, a senior manager and supported by other staff, which have more than 30 years of relevant experience combined. The internal auditors conduct the audit based on the standards set by internationally recognised professional bodies. The annual internal audit plan is submitted to the AC for approval prior to the commencement of the internal audit work. The internal auditors review the effectiveness of key internal controls in accordance with the internal audit plan. Staffed by suitably qualified and experienced executives, the internal auditors have unrestricted direct access to the AC and unfettered access to all the Company’s documents, properties and personnel. The internal auditors have a direct and primary reporting line to the AC and assist the AC in overseeing and monitoring the implementation and improvements required on internal control weaknesses identified. The AC reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the internal audit function quarterly. The role of the internal auditors is to support the AC in ensuring that the Group maintains a sound system of internal controls by monitoring and assessing the effectiveness of key controls and procedures, conducting in-depth audits of high risk areas and undertaking investigations as directed by the AC. The AC regularly reviews the performance of the internal auditors and determines their reappointment and level of remuneration. The AC reviews the adequacy of the function of the internal audit annually and based on this review believes that the internal auditors have adequate resources to perform their function effectively and objectively and has unfettered access to the Company’s documents, records, properties and personnel. The AC is satisfied with the effectiveness of the existing internal control systems put in place by the senior management to meet the needs of the Group in its current business environment.

Provision 10.5: The AC meets with the external auditors, and with the internal auditors, in each case without the presence of Management, at least annually. The AC has met with the Company’s external auditors and internal auditors without the presence of the management and has full unfettered access to do so. 8282 83 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Shareholders Rights and Conduct of General Meetings Principle 11: The company treats all shareholders fairly and equitably in order to enable them to exercise shareholders’ rights and have the opportunity to communicate their views on matters affecting the company. The company gives shareholders a balanced and understandable assessment of its performance, position and prospects. Provision 11.1 The company provides shareholders with the opportunity to participate effectively in and vote at general meetings of shareholders and informs them of the rules governing general meetings of shareholders. Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’) and other shareholders’ meetings will always be held at a reasonable place and time. In FY2021, AGM will be held electronically due to the COVID-19 (Temporary Measures) (Alternative Arrangements for Meetings for Companies, Variable Capital Companies, Business Trusts, Unit Trusts and Debenture Holders) Order 2020. The Company ensures that shareholders have the opportunity to participate effectively and vote at shareholders’ meetings. In this regard, shareholders are informed of shareholders’ meetings through notices contained in annual reports or a circular sent to all shareholders. These notices are also published in the local newspaper and posted on SGXNET and ASX Online. Shareholders are able to send and receive communications electronically with the Company through its respective share registries platform in Singapore and Australian, details for doing so are available on the corporate website at www.civmec.com.au. At AGM and other shareholders’ meetings, the Executive Chairman ensures constructive dialogue between the Board and shareholders and upholds high standards of corporate governance. Shareholders are invited and given the opportunity to voice their views, put forth any questions and seek clarification on questions they may have regarding the Company. Shareholders are also informed of the rules and voting procedures governing such meetings under the relevant notice of meeting. For greater transparency, the Company has adopted the voting of all its resolutions by poll at the general meetings and an announcement of the detailed results of the number of votes cast for and against each resolution and the respective percentages are announced at the meeting and via announcements on SGXNET and ASX Online made on the same day. Provision 11.2 The company tables separate resolutions at general meetings of shareholders on each substantially separate issue unless the issues are interdependent and linked so as to form one significant proposal. Where the resolutions are ‘bundled’, the company explains the reasons and material implications in the notice of meeting. Resolutions are, as far as possible, structured separately and may be voted on independently. Provision 11.3 All directors attend general meetings of shareholders, and the external auditors are also present to address shareholders’ queries about the conduct of audit and the preparation and content of the auditors’ report. Directors’ attendance at such meetings held during the financial year is disclosed in the company’s annual report. The Directors and the external auditors are available at the AGM to answer shareholders’ queries. In FY2021, all Directors and the external auditor attended the AGM. Provision 11.4 The company’s Constitution (or other constitutive documents) allow for absentia voting at general meetings of shareholders. The Group fully supports the Code’s principle to encourage shareholders’ participation in and vote at all the general meetings. The Company’s Constitution allows the appointment of not more than two proxies by shareholders to attend the AGM and vote on his/her/their behalf. Shareholders who hold shares through nominees are allowed, upon prior request through their nominees, to attend the general meetings as proxies without being constrained by the two-proxy requirement. The Company, however, has not implemented measures to allow shareholders who are unable to vote in person at the Company’s AGM the option to vote in absentia, such as via mail, electronic mail or facsimile transactions as the authentication of shareholder indemnity information and other related security issues remain a concern. The Company will review its Constitution from time to time. Where amendment to its Constitution is required to align the relevant provisions with the requirements of the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST and the Listing Rules of the ASX, shareholders’ approval will be obtained. 82 83 83 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Report on Corporate Governance 30 JUNE 2021 Board Matters (continued) Shareholders Rights and Conduct of General Meetings (continued) Principle 11 (continued) Provision 11.5 The company publishes minutes of general meetings of shareholders on its corporate website as soon as practicable.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group and the statement of financial position of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the “Act”) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) (“SFRS(I)s”) so as to give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group and the financial position of the Company as at 30 June 2021 and of the consolidated financial performance, consolidated changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group for the year ended on that date. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing (“SSAs”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (“ACRA”) Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics for Public Accountants and Accounting Entities (“ACRA Code”) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Singapore, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ACRA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 8686 48 87 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Civmec Limited (INCORPORATED IN SINGAPORE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CIVMEC LIMITED (Incorporated in Singapore) Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financials as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Accounting for construction contracts Our response We refer to Note 3(a)(ii), 3(a)(iii) and 3(b)(i) under “Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty”, Note 4 and Note 33 to the financial statements. During the financial year ended 30 June 2021, revenue from construction contracts amounted to A$620.0 million which represented 92.0% of the total revenue of the Group. Contract revenue comprises the initial amount agreed in the contract and variations in the contract as constrained to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently removed. The amount of revenue recognised is based on the Group’s progress towards completion of the construction contract, determined based on the proportion of construction costs incurred to date to the estimated total contract costs (“input method”). The Group uses the input method to measure project progress and recognises contract revenue in accordance with SFRS(I) 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. • We performed procedures to understand the projects through discussions with management and examination of key project documents including contracts and correspondences with customers on delays and extension of time. We evaluated the relevant key controls put in place by the management over the construction contract revenue and costs recognition on construction contracts. In relation to the contract revenue for projects, on a sample basis, we have: o Traced the contract sums to the contracts and variation orders entered into by the Group and its customers. • o Challenged the appropriateness of the Group’s judgement on the variations and claims included in the construction contract the computation of relevant customer revenue via correspondence, consultant correspondence and inspecting key clauses in the contracts and variation orders. legal/specialist scrutiny of and specialist o Held discussions with senior operational and financial management, as well as the Group’s legal advisors consultants where appropriate, to evaluate management’s assessment that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently removed. 86 49 87 87 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Civmec Limited (INCORPORATED IN SINGAPORE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CIVMEC LIMITED (Incorporated in Singapore) Key Audit Matters (continued) Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Accounting for construction contracts (continued) Our response (continued) Estimates of revenues, costs or the extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management. • The determination of estimated contract revenue, total contract costs and costs to complete require significant judgement which may impact on the amounts of construction contract revenue and profits recognised during the year, including the provision for onerous contracts. We have therefore, identified this as a key audit matter. o Assessed the adequacy of the provision for onerous contracts based on our understanding of the projects. This includes reviewing management’s assessment of provision for onerous contracts by focusing on projects with low or negative margins. We have also held discussions with senior operational and financial management, where appropriate on these projects. In relation to total contract costs, on a sample basis, we have: o Tested costs incurred to date and agreed these to supporting documentation. o Evaluated the appropriateness of inputs, amongst others, materials, subcontractor and labour costs used by management in their estimation of the total cost to complete the contract or project, and obtained supporting documentation on the major inputs. o We examined key project documentation and discussed the progress of the significant projects with the Group’s key project personnel and management for significant events that could impact the estimated total contract costs and stage of completion. • We have recomputed the percentage of completion based on actual cumulative contract costs incurred to date to the total estimated contract costs for individually significant projects. • We checked the arithmetic accuracy of the revenue and profit recognised based on the percentage of completion computation for individually significant projects and traced the revenue for the current year based on the measurement of progress to the accounting records. 8888 50 89 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Civmec Limited (INCORPORATED IN SINGAPORE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CIVMEC LIMITED (Incorporated in Singapore) Key Audit Matters (continued) Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Accounting for construction contracts (continued) Our response (continued) • We have also assessed the adequacy of the disclosures of the key accounting estimates and the sensitivity of the inputs to the estimates and found the disclosures in the financial statements to be appropriate. Our audit findings: We are satisfied that the judgements applied by management in accounting for construction contracts are reasonable. 88 51 89 89 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Civmec Limited (INCORPORATED IN SINGAPORE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CIVMEC LIMITED (Incorporated in Singapore) Key Audit Matters (continued) Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Recoverability of trade and other receivables and contract assets Our response We refer to Note 3(a)(i) under “Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty”, Note 4(b), Note 11 and Note 32(a) to the financial statements. • We obtained an understanding of the Group credit policy and evaluated the processes for identifying impairment indicators. • We have reviewed and tested the ageing of trade and other The carrying amount of trade and other receivables and contract assets of the Group was A$87.5 million and A$82.6 million as at 30 June 2021 respectively. We focused on this area because of its significance and the degree of judgement required in determining the carrying amount of trade and other receivables as at the reporting date. In accordance with SFRS(I) 9 Financial Instruments, the Group assesses periodically and at each financial year end, the expected credit loss associated with its receivables. When there is expected credit loss impairment, the amount and timing of future cash flows are estimated based on historical, current and forward-looking loss experience for assets with similar credit risk characteristics. receivables. • We have reviewed management’s assessment on the credit worthiness of selected customers. • We have also assessed current ongoing negotiations and settlements of to modifications, to identify if the collectability of contract consideration is highly probable. significant contracts subject • We further discussed with the key management and the component auditors on the adequacy of the allowance for impairment recorded by the Group and reviewed the supporting documents provided by management in relation to their assessment. • We have also reviewed the adequacy and appropriateness of the impairment charge based on the available information. Our audit findings: Based on our audit procedures, we found management’s assessment of the recoverability of trade and other receivables and contract assets to be reasonable and the disclosures to be appropriate. 9090 52 91 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Civmec Limited (INCORPORATED IN SINGAPORE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CIVMEC LIMITED (Incorporated in Singapore) Key Audit Matters (continued) Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Valuation of property, plant and equipment Our response We refer to Note 3(a)(vi), Note 14 and Note 26 to the financial statements. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of the Group was A$412.0 million as at 30 June 2021, of which the fair value of the freehold land and buildings had been assessed as having a fair value of A$325.2 million. The valuation of property, plant and equipment is significant to our audit due to the use of various valuation techniques which involve significant judgements and critical estimates. The key assumptions used in the fair valuation are also disclosed in Note 14 to the financial statements. Management relied on independent external valuations for the fair valuation of its freehold land and buildings. • We assessed and independence of the professional valuer engaged by the Group. competence, capabilities the • We discussed and considered the reasonableness of the valuation methodologies used, as well as reviewed the key assumptions and inputs used with the professional valuer in determining the valuation of each property. • We assessed the reasonableness of the market value of properties by benchmarking them against those of comparable properties when there are comparable market sales evidence. • We evaluated the reasonableness of the key data and assumptions used in the Depreciated Replacement Cost approach by the valuer when there are no comparable market sales evidence. • We also assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures relating to the valuation techniques and key inputs applied by the professional valuer.

The other information comprises the Annual Report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements 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 statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements 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 Management and Directors for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Act and SFRS(I)s, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair financial statements and to maintain accountability of assets. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The directors’ responsibilities include overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are 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 SSAs 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 these financial statements. 9292 54 93 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Civmec Limited (INCORPORATED IN SINGAPORE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CIVMEC LIMITED (Incorporated in Singapore) Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued) As part of an audit in accordance with SSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s 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 statements 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 statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent 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 consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 92 55 93 93 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Civmec Limited (INCORPORATED IN SINGAPORE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CIVMEC LIMITED (Incorporated in Singapore) Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued) From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current year 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.

General Information Civmec Limited (the ‘Company’) was incorporated in the Republic of Singapore on 3 June 2010 under the Singapore Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the ‘Act’) as an investment holding company for the purpose of acquiring the subsidiary companies pursuant to the Restructuring Exercise. On 29 March 2012 the company changed its name to Civmec Limited. The Company was listed on the Singapore Exchange Securities Ltd (‘SGX-ST’) since 13 April 2012. On 22 June 2019, the Company was listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’). The Company is now holding dual listing status. The Company has provided an option for shareholders to convert their shares with SGX-ST for shares with ASX, at the ratio of 1:1. The registered office of the Company is at 80 Robinson Road #02-00, Singapore 068898 and the principal place of business is at 16 Nautical Drive, Henderson, WA 6166 Australia. The principal activity of the Company is that of an investment holding company. The principal activities of its subsidiaries, joint ventures, associate, and joint operations are set out in Notes 16, 17, 18 and 19 respectively. The financial statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 were approved and authorised for issue on the date of the statement by the board of directors in accordance with a resolution of the directors on the date of the Directors’ Statement. 2. Significant Accounting Policies (a) Basis of Preparation The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act, Chapter 50 and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) (‘SFRS(I)’) under the historical cost convention, except for the revaluation on freehold land and buildings. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with SFRS(I) requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. It also requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 3. The Group has adopted the new or amended SFRS(I) and SFRS(I) Interpretations (‘SFRS(I) INTs’) that are mandatory for application for the financial year. The details are disclosed in Note 34 to the financial statements. (b) Basis of Consolidation (i) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. 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 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 agreements; 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. 102 103 103 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (b) Basis of Consolidation (continued) (i) Subsidiaries (continued) The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss. Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the Group is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration that is deemed to be an asset or liability are recognised in accordance with SFRS(I) 9 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not re-measured, and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognised and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. When necessary, amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform with the Group’s accounting policies. Change in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity. Disposal of subsidiaries When the Group ceases to have control any retained interest in the entity is re-measured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. 104104 105 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (b) Basis of Consolidation (continued) (ii) Joint Arrangements A joint arrangement is a contractual arrangement whereby two or more parties have joint control. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. A joint arrangement is classified either as joint operation or joint venture, based on the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement. To the extent the joint arrangement provides the Group with rights to the net assets of the arrangement, the arrangement is a joint venture. The Group reassesses whether the type of joint arrangement in which it is involved has changed when facts and circumstances change. Joint venture The Group recognises its interest in a joint venture as an investment and accounts for the investment using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the investor’s share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition. Joint operations The Group’s joint operations are joint arrangements whereby the parties (the joint operators) that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations to the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. The Group recognises, in relation to its interest in the joint operation: • • • • • its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly. When the Group sells or contributes assets to a joint operation, the Group recognises gains or losses on the sale or contribution of assets that are attributable to the interest of the other joint operations. The Group recognises the full amount of any loss when the sale or contribution of assets provides evidence of a reduction in the net realisable value, or an impairment loss, of those assets. When the Group purchases assets from a joint operation, it does not recognise its share of the gains and losses until it resells the assets to an independent party. However, a loss on the transaction is recognised immediately if the loss provides evidence of a reduction in the net realisable value of the assets to be purchased or and impairment loss. The accounting policies of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to the Group’s interest in a joint operation have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. (c) Investment in Subsidiary Companies Investments in subsidiary companies are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses in the statement of financial position of the Company. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investments are recognised in the profit or loss. 104 105 105 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (d) Investment in Associate The Group recognises its interest in an associate as an investment and accounts for the investment using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the investor’s share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition. If the Group’s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. If the associate subsequently reports profits, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised. (e) Revenue Recognition Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue is recognised when the Group satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to the customer, which is when the customer obtains control of the good or service. A performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time or over time. The amount of revenue recognised is the amount allocated to the satisfied performance obligation. Construction Contract revenue The Group provides engineering and construction services to customers through contracts. Contract revenue is recognised when the Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced. For these contracts, revenue is recognised over time by reference to the Group’s progress towards the completion of the contract. The measure of progress is determined based on the proportion of contract costs incurred to date to the estimated total contract costs (‘input method’). Costs incurred that are not related to the contract or that do not contribute towards satisfying a performance obligation (‘PO’) are excluded from the measurement of progress and instead are expensed as incurred. In some circumstances, such as in the early stages of a contract where the Group may not be able to reasonably measure its progress but expects to recover the contract costs incurred, contract revenue is recognised only to the extent of the contract costs incurred until such time when the Group can reasonably measure its progress. Contract modifications that do not add distinct goods or services are accounted for as a continuation of the original contract and the change is recognised as a cumulative adjustment to revenue at the date of modification. The amount of revenue recognised is based on the estimated transaction price, which comprises the contractual price, adjusted for expected returns. Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in the profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management and included in the transaction only to the extent that is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. Estimates of revenues, costs or the extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management. 106106 107 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (e) Revenue Recognition (continued) Construction Contract revenue (continued) At the end of each reporting date, the Group updates its assessment of the estimated transaction price, including its assessment of whether an estimate of variable consideration is constrained. The corresponding amounts are adjusted against revenue in the period in which the transaction price changes. The period between the transfer of the promised services and customer payment may exceed one year. For such contracts, there is no significant financing component present as the payment terms are an industry practice to protect the customers from the performing entity’s failure to adequately complete some or all of its obligations under the contract. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money. The customer is invoiced on a milestone payment schedule. If the value of the goods transferred by the Group exceeds the payments, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the value of the goods transferred, a contract liability is recognised. For costs incurred in fulfilling the contract which is within the scope of another SFRS(I) (e.g. Inventories), these have been accounted for in accordance with those other SFRS(I). If these are not within the scope of another SFRS(I), the Group will capitalise these as contract cost assets only if (a) these costs relate directly to a contract or an anticipated contract which the Group can specifically identify; (b) these costs generate or enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future; and (c) these costs are expected to be recovered. Otherwise, such costs are recognised as an expense immediately. Sale of goods and services Revenue from the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of business are recognised when the Group satisfies a PO by transferring control of a promised good or service to the customer. The amount of revenue recognised is the amount of the transaction price allocated to the satisfied PO. The transaction price is allocated to each PO in the contract on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling prices of the promised goods or services. The individual standalone selling price of a good or service that has not previously been sold on a stand-alone basis, or has a highly variable selling price, is determined based on the residual portion of the transaction price after allocating the transaction price to goods and/or services with observable stand-alone selling prices. A discount or variable consideration is allocated to one or more, but not all, of the performance obligations if it relates specifically to those performance obligations. The transaction price is the amount of consideration in the contract to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services. The transaction price may be fixed or variable and is adjusted for the time value of money if the contract includes a significant financing component. The consideration payable to a customer is deducted from the transaction price if the Group does not receive a separate identifiable benefit from the customer. When consideration is variable, the estimated amount is included in the transaction price to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal of the cumulative revenue will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Revenue may be recognised at a point in time or over time following the timing of satisfaction of the PO. If a PO is satisfied over time, revenue is recognised based on the percentage of completion reflecting the progress towards complete satisfaction of that PO. The Group considers certain services to be a distinct service as it is both regularly supplied by the Group to other customers on a stand-alone basis and is available for customers from other providers in the market. A portion of the transaction price is therefore allocated to the maintenance services based on the stand-alone selling price of those services. Discounts are not considered as they are only given in rare circumstances and are never material. Revenue from the maintenance services is recognised over time. The transaction price allocated to these services is recognised as a contract liability at the time of the initial sales transaction and is released on a straight-line basis over the period of service. 106 107 107 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (f) Government Grants Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with. As the grant relates to R&D expenditure already incurred it is recognised in the income statement in the period it became receivable. (g) Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities A contract asset is recognised when the Group recognises revenue as set out in Note 2(e) before being unconditionally entitled to the consideration under the payment terms set out in the contract. Contract assets are assessed for expected credit losses (‘ECLs’) in accordance with the policy set out in Note 2(j) and are reclassified to receivables when the right to the consideration has become unconditional. A contract liability is recognised when the customer pays consideration before the Group recognises the related revenue as set out in Note 2(e). A contract liability would also be recognised if the Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration before the Group recognises the related revenue. In such cases, a corresponding receivable would also be recognised. For a single contract with the customer, either a net contract asset or a net contract liability is presented. For multiple contracts, contract assets and contract liabilities of unrelated contracts are not presented on a net basis. (h) Income Tax Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Current income tax is recognised at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax is recognised for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised on all temporary differences except for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and joint venture, where the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised except where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss. In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and interest in joint venture, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured: (i) at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date; and (ii) based on the tax consequence that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the balance sheet date, to recover or settle the carrying amounts of its assets and liabilities. 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 profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reporting period and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. 108108 109 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (h) Income Tax (continued) Current income taxes are recognised in profit and loss except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate. Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit and loss is recognised outside profit and loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity and deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted against goodwill on acquisition. Sales tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of sales tax except: • Where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the sale tax is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and • Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax included. The net amount of sales tax recoverable from or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statements of financial position. (i) Foreign Currency Translation Functional and presentation currency The financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency that best reflects the economic substance of the underlying events and circumstances relevant to each entity (the ‘functional currency’). The financial statements are presented in Australian Dollars (‘A$’), which is the functional currency of the Company. Prior to 1 July 2019, the financial statements were presented in Singapore Dollars (‘S$’). With effect from 1 July 2019, the Group changed its presentation currency from S$ to A$. The Group largely operates within Australia where virtually all its income is derived. Following the Group’s listing on the Australian Securities Exchange on 22 June 2019, the change will help to provide a clearer understanding of the Group’s financial results and improve comparability of the Group’s performance. The effect of the change of presentation currency was applied retrospectively using the following procedures: • Assets and liabilities of all corresponding figures presented (including opening balances from the beginning of earliest prior period presented) were translated at the closing rates of respective year end; • Income and expenses for all corresponding figures presented were translated at the average exchange rate for the financial year approximating the exchange rates at the dates of transactions; and • All resulting exchange differences were recognised in other comprehensive income. 108 109 109 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (i) Foreign Currency Translation (continued) Transactions and balances In preparing the financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (‘foreign currencies’) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Currency translation differences resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the closing rates at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss, unless they arise from borrowings in foreign currencies and other currency instruments designated and qualifying as net investment hedges and net investment in foreign operations. Those currency translation differences are recognised in the currency translation reserve in the consolidated financial statements and transferred to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal of the foreign operation. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Group companies The consolidated results and financial position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: • Assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement; • Income or expense for each statements presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income (i.e. including comparatives) are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions; and • All resulting currency translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the currency translation reserve. Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the Group’s foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they are incurred. On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation or loss of joint control over a jointly controlled entity that includes a foreign operation), all of the accumulated exchange differences in respect of that operation attributable to the Group are reclassified to profit or loss. Any exchange differences that have previously been attributed to non-controlling interests are derecognised, but they are not reclassified to profit or loss. (j) Financial Assets Classification and measurement The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: • Amortised cost; • Fair value through other comprehensive income (‘FVOCI’); and • Fair value through profit or loss (‘FVPL’). The classification depends on the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets as well as the contractual terms of the cash flows of the financial asset. Financial assets with embedded derivatives, if any, are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest. The Group reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes. 110110 111 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (j) Financial Assets (continued) Initial recognition At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss. Subsequent measurement Debt instruments mainly comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and contract assets. There are three subsequent measurement categories, depending on the Group’s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset: • Amortised cost: Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt instrument that is subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in interest income using the effective interest rate method. • FVOCI: Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for sale, and where the assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are classified as FVOCI. Movements in fair values are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (‘OCI’) and accumulated in fair value reserve, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses, which are recognised in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented in ‘other income / other expenses’. Interest income from these financial assets is recognised using the effective interest rate method and presented in ‘interest income’, if any. • FVPL: Debt instruments that are held for trading as well as those that do not meet the criteria for classification as amortised cost or FVOCI are classified as FVPL. Movement in fair values and interest income is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it arises and presented in ‘other income / other expenses’, if any. Recognition and derecognition Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade date - the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. On disposal of a debt instrument, the difference between the carrying amount and the sale proceeds is recognised in profit or loss. Any amount previously recognised in other comprehensive income relating to that asset is reclassified to profit or loss. Impairment The Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit loss (‘ECL’) associated with its debt financial assets carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. ECL are probability-weighted estimates of credit losses. Credit losses are measured at the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive). ECL are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset. For trade receivables and contract assets, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by SFRS(I) 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. For other receivables, the Group applies the general approach. For the purpose of impairment assessment for other receivables, the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to 12-month ECL, which reflects the low credit risk of the exposures. 110 111 111 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (j) Financial Assets (continued) Credit-impaired financial assets A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost are credit-impaired. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the observable data about the following events: • Significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer; • A breach of contract such as a default or past due; • The lender(s) of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower or a concession(s) that the lender(s) would not other consider (e.g. the restructuring of a loan or advance by the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise); • It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; or • The disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties. Write-off policy The Group writes off a financial asset when there is information indicating that the counterparty is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery. Financial assets written off may still be subject to recovery efforts under the Group’s recovery procedures. Any recoveries made are recognised in profit or loss. (k) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. (l) Property, Plant and Equipment (i) Recognition and measurement Freehold land and buildings Before 1 July 2019, the Group was using cost model for this class of property. Freehold land and buildings were stated on the cost basis and are therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost includes construction costs and borrowing cost that are eligible to be capitalised. From 1 July 2019, under the revaluation model, freehold land and buildings are initially recognised at cost. Such costs, including the construction costs and borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalisation, are subsequently carried at their revalued amount, being the fair value at the date of revaluation, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are performed with sufficient regularity such that the carrying amount do not differ materially from those that would be determined using fair values at the end of the reporting period. Freehold land and buildings are revalued by independent professional valuers on triennial basis and whenever their carrying amounts are likely to differ materially from their revalued amounts. When an asset is revalued, any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset. The net amount is then restated to the revalued amount of the asset. Increases in carrying amounts arising from revaluation are recognised in other comprehensive income, unless they offset previous decreases in the carrying amounts of the same asset, in which case, they are recognised in profit or loss. Decreases in carrying amounts that offset previous increases of the same asset are recognised in other comprehensive income. All other decreases in carrying amounts are recognised in profit or loss. 112112 113 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (l) Property, Plant and Equipment (continued) (i) Recognition and measurement (continued) Other property, plant and equipment All other items of property are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. In the event the carrying amount of plant and equipment is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to its estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses recognized either in profit or loss or as a revaluation decrease if the impairment losses relate to a revalued asset. A formal assessment of recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present (refer to Note 3 for details of critical judgements of impairment of property, plant and equipment). The cost of fixed assets constructed within the Group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. (ii) Depreciation The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Assets under construction are not depreciated. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: Class of Fixed Assets Buildings Plant and equipment Leasehold land Leased assets Small tools Motor vehicles Office and IT equipment Depreciation Rate 2% - 33.33% 3.1% - 33.33% 2.9% - 3.6% 5% - 15% 5% - 33.33% 6.67% - 20% 5% - 33.33% The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses are included in profit or loss. 112 113 113 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (m) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that these assets may be impaired. At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial 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), on an individual asset. 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. 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. The difference between the carrying amount and recoverable amount is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. 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. (n) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, for which it is more likely than not that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost (o) Financial Liability and Equity Instruments Issued by the Group 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. Financial liabilities An entity shall recognise a financial liability on its statement of financial position when, and only when, the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liability is recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of a financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue. After initial recognition, financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognised, and through amortisation process. 114114 115 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (o) Financial Liability and Equity Instruments Issued by the Group (continued) Borrowings Borrowings are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and 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 amount on initial recognition. Borrowings are presented as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Derecognition of financial liabilities The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. (p) Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of these assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. (q) Leases The Group as Lessee At the inception of the contract, the Group assesses if the contract contains a lease. A contract contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Reassessment is only required when the terms and conditions of the contract are changed. The Group recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the date which the underlying assets become available for use. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement dates, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. Any initial direct costs that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained are added to the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets. Right-of-use assets are subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use assets are periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the corresponding lease liabilities. The Group presents its right-of-use assets in ‘Property, plant and equipment’ and lease liabilities in ‘Lease liabilities’ in the statements of financial position. The initial measurement of lease liabilities is measured at the present value of the lease payments discounted using the implicit rate in the lease, if the rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate. 114 115 115 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (q) Leases (continued) The Group as Lessee (continued) Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: • Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivables; • Variable lease payments that are based on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date; • Amounts expected to be payable under residual value guarantees; • The exercise price of a purchase option if it is reasonably certain to exercise the option; and • Payment of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising that option. For contracts that contain both lease and non-lease components, the Group allocates the consideration to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease and non-lease components. The Group has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for property leases; instead, these are accounted for as one single lease component. Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost, and are remeasured when: • There is a change in future lease payments arising from changes in an index or rate; • There is a change in the Group’s assessment of whether it will exercise lease extension and termination options; • There is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; or • There is a modification to the lease term. When lease liabilities are remeasured, corresponding adjustments are made against the right-of-use assets. If the carrying amounts of the right-of-use assets have been reduced to zero, the adjustments are recorded in profit or loss. The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have lease terms of 12 months or less, as well as leases of low value assets. Variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate are included in the measurement of the corresponding right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Other variable lease payments are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. (r) Employee Benefits Defined contribution plans The Group participates in the national pension schemes as defined by the laws of the countries in which it has operations. Contributions to defined contribution pension schemes are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is performed. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. Provision for employee benefits Provisions are made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end of the reporting period. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wage increases and the probability that the employee may not satisfy vesting requirements. Those cash flows are discounted using the market yields on high quality corporate bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash flows. 116116 117 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (r) Employee Benefits (continued) Share-based payments The Group operates an equity-settled share-based compensation plan. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of options is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in the share option reserve over the vesting period. The total amount to be recognised over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted on the date of the grant. Non-market vesting conditions are included in the estimation of the number of shares under options that are expected to become exercisable on the vesting date. At each balance sheet date, the Group revises its estimates of the number of shares under options that are expected to become exercisable on the vesting date and recognises the impact of the revision of the estimates in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to the share option reserve over the remaining vesting period. The charge or credit to profit or loss for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period. No expense is recognised for options that do not ultimately vest, except for options where vesting is conditional upon a market condition, which are treated as vested irrespective of whether or not the market condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied. The employee share option reserve is transferred to retained earnings upon expiry of the share options. When the options are exercised, the employee share option reserve is transferred to share capital if new shares are issued, or to treasury shares if the options are satisfied by the reissuance of treasury shares. In situations where equity instruments are issued and some or all of the goods or services received by the entity as consideration cannot be specifically identified, the unidentified goods or services received (or to be received) are measured as the difference between the fair value of the share-based payment and the fair value of any identifiable goods or services received at the grant date. This is then capitalised or expensed as appropriate. (s) Segment Reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the executive committee whose members are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments. (t) Share Capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares are deducted against the share capital account. Treasury shares When any entity within the Group purchases the Company’s ordinary shares (‘treasury shares’), the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost is presented as a component within equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders, until they are cancelled, sold or re-issued. When treasury shares are subsequently cancelled, the cost of treasury shares are deducted against the share capital account if the shares are purchased out of capital of the Company, or against the retained earnings of the Company if the shares are purchased out of the earnings of the Company. When treasury shares are subsequently sold or re-issued pursuant to the employee share option scheme, the cost of treasury shares is reversed from the treasury share account and the realised gain or loss on sale or re- issue, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and related income tax, is recognised in the capital reserve. 116 117 117 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (u) Related Parties A related party is defined as follows: A related party is a person or entity that is related to the entity that is preparing its financial statements (referred to as the ‘reporting entity’). a. A person or a close member of that person’s family is related to a reporting entity if that person: i. has control or joint control over the reporting entity; ii. has significant influence over the reporting entity; or iii. is a member of the key management personnel of the reporting entity or of a parent of the reporting entity. b. An entity is related to a reporting entity if any of the following conditions applies: i. the entity and the reporting entity are members of the same group (which means that each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary is related to the others); ii. one entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member); iii. both entities are joint ventures of the same third party; iv. one entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity; v. the entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the reporting entity or an entity related to the reporting entity. If the reporting entity is itself such a plan, the sponsoring employers are also related to the reporting entity; vi. the entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (a); vii. a person identified in (a)(i) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity); or viii. the entity, or any member of a group of which it is a part, provides key management personnel services to the reporting entity or to the parent of the reporting entity. 3. Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. (a) Critical Judgements in applying the Group’s Accounting Policies In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, the application of judgements that are expected to have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are discussed as follows. (i) Impairment of trade and other receivables and contract assets As at 30 June 2021, the Group’s trade and other receivables and contract assets amounted to A$87,488,000 (2020: A$75,016,000) and A$82,642,000 (2020: A$95,118,000) respectively, net of allowance for impairment, if any, arising from the Group’s different revenue segments as disclosed in Note 31 to the financial statements. Based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience, trade receivables exhibited different loss patterns for each revenue segment. Within each revenue segment, the Group has common customers across the different geographical regions and applies credit evaluations by customer. Accordingly, management has determined the expected loss rates by grouping the receivables across geographical regions in each revenue segment. An allowance for impairment of A$200,000 (2020: A$2,678,000) and a A$1,646,000 (2020: Nil) write-off for trade and other receivables were recognised as at 30 June 2021. No allowance for impairment for contract assets was recognised as at 30 June 2021 (2020: Nil). 118118 119 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 3. Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (continued) (a) Critical Judgements in applying the Group’s Accounting Policies (continued) (i) Impairment of trade and other receivables and contract assets (continued) Notwithstanding the above, the Group evaluates the expected credit loss on customers in financial difficulties separately. So far as management is aware, there is no major customer in financial difficulties during the financial year except for those customers with impairment loss being recognised. The Group’s and the Company’s credit risk exposure for trade receivables by different revenue segment are set out in Note 32(a). (ii) Judgement and method used in estimating construction contract revenue As discussed in Note 2(e) to the financial statements, construction contract revenue is recognised over time by reference to the Group’s progress towards completion of the contract. The measure of progress is determined based on the proportion of contract costs incurred to date to the estimated total contract costs (‘input method’). Costs incurred that are not related to the contract or that do not contribute towards satisfying a performance obligation (‘PO’) are excluded from the measure of progress and instead are expensed as incurred. Construction contract revenue comprises the initial amount of revenue agreed in the contract and variations in contract work to the extent that is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue will not occur. In estimating the variable consideration for contract revenue, the Group uses the expected value amount method to estimate the transaction price. The expected value is the sum of probability-weighted amounts in a range of possible consideration amounts. Management has relied on historical experience and the work of experts, analysed by customers and nature of scope of work, from prior years. Management has exercised judgement in applying the constraint on the estimated variable consideration that can be included in the transaction price. For variations claims, management has determined that a portion of the estimated variable consideration is subject to the constraint as, based on past experience with the customers, it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the cumulative amount of revenue recognised will occur, and therefore will not be recognised as revenue. (iii) Legal proceedings The Group is exposed to the risk of claims and litigation which can arise for various reasons, including changes in scope of work, delay and disputes etc. Given the nature of the business, variation orders, additional works and prolongation costs are common. As some of these items could be subjective and hence contentious in nature, the Group may from time to time be involved in adjudication or legal processes. In making its judgment as to whether it is probable that any such adjudication decisions or litigation will result in a liability and whether any such liability can be measured reliably, management relies on past experience and the opinion of legal advisors and technical experts. In making that overall judgment, management has included in its consideration the likely outcome of the claims. Although an adverse outcome of those claims could have a material adverse impact on the financial position of the Group, management have taken the view that such a material adverse outcome is very unlikely. (iv) Impairment of property, plant and equipment The Group assesses impairment of property, plant and equipment at each year end by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that may lead to impairment of assets. Adjustments will be made when considered necessary. Impairment assessment of property, plant and equipment includes considering certain indications such as significant changes in asset usage, significant decline in assets’ market value, obsolescence or physical damage of an asset, significant under performance relative to the expected historical or future operating results and significant negative industry or economic trends. No impairment loss on property, plant and equipment was recorded for the financial years ended 30 June 2021 and 2020 except for a loss on revaluation of buildings of A$1,611,000 during the previous financial year. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment at 30 June 2021 is A$412,030,000 (2020: A$397,804,000). 118 119 119 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 3. Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (continued) (a) Critical Judgements in applying the Group’s Accounting Policies (continued) (v) Determination of the lease term In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease term is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated). The lease term is reassessed if an option is actually exercised (or not exercised) or the Group becomes obliged to exercise (or not exercise) it. The assessment of reasonable certainty is only revised if a significant event or a significant change in circumstances occurs, which affects the assessment, and that is within the control of the lessee. For leases of the leasehold land and buildings, the following factors are normally the most relevant: • • If there are significant penalties to terminate (or not extend), the Group is typically reasonably certain to extend (or not terminate). If any leasehold improvements are expected to have a significant remaining value, the Group is typically reasonably certain to extend (or not terminate). • Otherwise, the Group considers other factors including historical lease durations and the costs and business disruption required to replace the leased asset. (vi) Valuation of freehold land and buildings The Group carries its freehold land and building at fair values which are determined by an independent real estate valuation expert using the highest-and-best use approach which is generally the sales comparison approach (i.e. the basis of market value). In arriving at the valuation figure, the valuer has taken into consideration the prevailing market conditions and differences between the freehold land and building and the comparables in terms of location, tenure, size, shape, design and layout, age and condition of the building, dates of transactions and other factors affecting their values. The most significant inputs in this valuation approach are the selling price per square meter and the usage of the property. The estimates are based on local market conditions existing at the reporting date. Fair values of buildings with no available market information are determined by the independent real estate valuation expert using the depreciated replacement cost method, which involves estimating the current replacement cost of the buildings and from which deductions are made to allow for depreciation due to age, condition and functional obsolescence. The replacement cost is then added to the land value to derive the fair value. The land value is determined based on the direct comparison method with transactions of comparable plots of land within the vicinity and elsewhere. In arriving at the valuation figure, the valuation expert has taken into consideration the prevailing market condition and differences between the freehold land and buildings and the comparable in terms of location, tenure, size, shape, design and layout, age and condition, dates of transactions and other factors affecting their values. The most significant inputs into this valuation approach are the estimated construction costs, depreciation rates and developer profit margin. The carrying amount of the freehold land and buildings at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 14. If the selling prices and price per unit measurement of the freehold land and buildings determined by valuation experts had been 5% higher/lower, the carrying amount of the freehold land and buildings would have been A$16,260,000 higher/lower. 120120 121 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 3. Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (continued) (b) 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. (i) Estimation of total contract costs for construction contracts The Group has significant ongoing construction contracts as at 30 June 2021 that are non-cancellable. For these contracts, revenue is recognised over time by reference to the Group’s progress towards completion of the contract. The measure of progress is determined based on the proportion of contract costs incurred to date to the estimated total contract costs (‘input method’). Management has to estimate the total contract costs to complete, which are used in the input method to determine the Group’s recognition of construction revenue. When it is probable that the total contract costs will exceed the total construction revenue, a provision for onerous contracts is recognised immediately. Significant assumptions are used to estimate the total contract sum and the total contract costs which affect the accuracy of revenue recognition based on the percentage-of-completion and completeness of provision for onerous contracts recognised. In making these estimates, management has relied on past experience and the work of specialists. The Group includes incremental costs of fulfilling the contracts which are the cost of materials and labour required to construct the projects. In estimating the forecast costs, the management exercised judgement in considering costs that relate directly to the contracts. If the estimated total contract sum decreases by 1% from management’s estimates, the Group’s profit before income tax will decrease by approximately A$6,200,000 (2020: A$3,901,000). If the remaining estimated contract costs increase by 1% from management’s estimates, the Group’s profit before income tax will decrease by approximately A$5,991,000 (2020: A$3,472,000). (ii) Estimation of useful lives of property, plant and equipment The useful lives of assets have been based on historical experience, lease terms and best available information for similar items in the industry. These estimations will affect the depreciation expense recognised in the financial year. There is no change in the estimated useful lives of plant and equipment during the current financial year. The carrying amount of the Group’s property, plant and equipment as at 30 June 2021 was A$412,030,000 (2020: A$397,804,000) (Note 14). A 10% difference in the expected useful lives of these assets from management’s estimate would result in an approximately A$1,417,000 (2020: A$1,046,000) variance in the Group’s profit before tax. (iii) Income taxes The Group has exposure to income taxes of which a portion of these taxes arose from certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises receivables or liabilities on expected tax issues based on their best estimates of the likely taxes recoverable or due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognised, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax positions in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying amounts of the Group’s and Company’s current income tax positions as at 30 June 2021 were income tax payable of A$14,978,000 (2020: A$2,862,000) and A$17,835,000 (2020: A$2,840,000) respectively. The carrying amounts of the Group’s and Company’s deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as at 30 June 2021 are disclosed in Note 9 to the financial statements. (iv) Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the Group based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the Group operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the Group unfavorably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 120 121 121 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 4. Revenue from Contracts with Customers (a) Disaggregation of Revenue from Contracts with Customers The Group derives revenue from the transfer of goods and services over time and at a point in time as follows: Over time: Construction contract revenue Revenue from rendering of services At a point in time: Revenue from sales of goods Group 2021 A$’000 620,019 53,284 673,303 883 674,186 2020 A$’000 390,235 728 390,963 905 391,868 Revenue from the rendering of services In the current year, Contracts where payment is made for the provision of labour and materials without any risk or penalty for performance is classified as revenue from the rendering of services. Segment analysis The segment analysis of the Group is disclosed in Note 31 to the financial statements. (b) Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets Contract liabilities Group 2021 A$’000 82,642 (80,138) 2020 A$’000 95,118 (83,266) Contract assets primarily relate to the Group’s right to consideration for work completed but not yet billed at the reporting date on construction contracts. The contract assets are transferred to trade receivables when the rights become unconditional, which usually occurs when the customer certifies the progress claims. Contract liabilities primarily relate to the Group’s obligation to transfer goods or services to customers for which the Group has received advances from customers for construction contracts and progress billings issued in excess of the Group’s rights to the consideration in respect of construction contract revenue. 122122 123 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 4.

(ii) Unsatisfied performance obligations Aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to contracts that are partially or fully unsatisfied as at 30 June Group 2021 A$’000 1,005,664 2020 A$’000 899,498 The Group expects that the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations as of 30 June 2021 will be recognised as revenue as the Group continue to perform to complete the construction, which is expected to occur over the next few years up to 2029. The amount disclosed above does not include variable consideration which is subject to constraint. As permitted under the SFRS(I) 15, the aggregated transaction price allocated to unsatisfied contracts of periods of one year or less, or are billed based on time incurred, is not disclosed. 122 123 123 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 5.

The use of these capital tax losses is subject to the agreement of tax authorities and compliance with certain provisions of the tax legislation of the respective countries in which the companies operate. The deferred tax assets arising from these capital losses amounted to A$628,000 (2020: A$483,000) and are not recognised as there is no reasonable certainty that future capital gains will be available to utilise the capital tax losses. The non-deductible expenses of the Group mainly relate to share option expenses which are being treated as non- deductible for tax purposes. The tax rate used for the 2021 and 2020 reconciliations above is the corporate tax rate of 30% payable by corporate entities in Australia on taxable profits under the tax law in that jurisdiction. The Group’s operations are primarily located in Australia. 126 127 127 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 9.

The fair value is determined by the valuer on the highest and best use approach of each asset. Such valuation was determined using the Sales Comparison approach (to market-type properties), Hypothetical Development approach, Income Capitalisation approach and Depreciated Replacement Cost (‘DRC’) approach (to non-market-type properties). The fair value has been derived through a mix of Level 2 inputs where applicable and Level 3 inputs where the Valuer has deemed Level 2 inputs to be not applicable. 134134 135 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 14.

Goodwill has been allocated to the cash-generating unit, Metals and Minerals division. Management is of the opinion that the recoverable amount will exceed the carrying amount on the basis that this cash generating unit has been generating profit since acquisition and management forecasts the results of this subsidiary to be in a net profit position for the financial year ended 30 June 2021. In arriving at this assessment, management has determined the recoverable amount using a two (2020: two) years forecasting process based on the current order book, projected orders and a consumer price index (‘CPI’) factor of 3.8% (2020: 1.6%) per annum on direct costs and overhead costs. 16.

Share-Based Payments (a) Performance Share Plan The Civmec Performance Share Plan (the ‘CPSP’) for key management personnel and employees of the Group was approved and adopted by shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on 25 October 2012. Under the CPSP, 1,199,000 ordinary shares with a market value of S$0.70 equivalent to A$0.74 per share were fully allotted out of treasury shares issued by the Company on 13 June 2014. No issuance of share-based payment transactions in the current financial year. (b) Employee Share Option Scheme The Civmec Employee Share Option Scheme (the ‘CESOS’) was established on 27 March 2012 and formed part of the Civmec Limited prospectus dated 5 April 2012. The CESOS is a long term incentive scheme to reward and retain key management and employees of the Group whose service are integral to the success and the continued growth of the Group. Executive and non-executive directors (including independent directors) and employees of the Company, who are not controlling shareholders or their associates, are eligible to participate in the scheme. Controlling shareholders or their associates cannot participate in the scheme unless certain conditions are satisfied and shareholder approval is obtained. The options are issued for no consideration and carry no entitlements to voting rights or dividends of the Group and are not transferable. The number of options granted is subject to approval by the Remuneration Committee and is based on a performance framework which incorporates financial and/or non-financial performance measurement criteria. Options are forfeited immediately after the holder ceases to be employed by the Group (except in the case of ill health, retirement, redundancy or bankruptcy), unless the committee determines otherwise. The options are issued with a strike price that is at the Remuneration Committee’s discretion, set at a price as quoted on the Singapore Exchange for three market days immediately preceding the relevant date of grant of the option or at a discount to the market price (subject to a maximum discount of 20%). The vesting period for options issued with no discount to market price is over one year. On 11 September 2013, 6,000,000 options were granted to employees under the CESOS to take up ordinary shares at an exercise price of S$0.65 equivalent to A$0.64 per share. The options are exercisable on or before 11 September 2023. Options granted to employees are as follows: Grant date 11 September 2013 Total number granted Vesting period 6,000,000 1 year The following table illustrates the number and weighted average exercise prices (WAEP) of, and movements in share options during the year: Outstanding at the beginning of the year - Cancelled during the year 2021 2020 No. 4,000,000 - WAEP 0.65 No. 4,000,000 - WAEP 0.65 Outstanding at the end of the year 4,000,000 0.65 4,000,000 0.65 Exercisable at the end of the year 4,000,000 4,000,000 148148 149 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 30 JUNE 2021 25. Share-Based Payments (continued) (b) Employee Share Option Scheme (continued) The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding as at 30 June 2021 is 2 (2020: 3) years. The exercise price of outstanding shares was S$0.65 (2020: S$0.65) equivalent to A$0.64 (2020: A$0.68). The fair value of the options granted to employees is deemed to represent the value of the employee services received over the vesting period. The weighted average fair value of options granted was S$0.35 (2020: S$0.35) equivalent to A$0.35 (2020: A$0.37). These values were calculated using the Binomial option pricing model applying the following inputs: Grant date: Vesting period Dividend yield Weighted average exercise price Share price Expected average life of the option Expected share price volatility Risk-free interest rate 11 September 2013 1 year 11% S$0.65 S$0.65 5.9 years 26% 2.68% The expected volatility of the Company has been determined having regard to the historical volatility of the market price of the Company’s shares and the mean reversion tendency of volatilities. The life of the options is based on the expected exercise patterns, which may not eventuate in the future. A liquidity discount has also been applied to the value of the options to account for historically low trading volume of the shares. (c) Performance Rights Plan The Civmec Limited Performance Rights Plan (the ‘CPRP’) for key senior executives of the Group was approved and adopted by shareholders at the Annual General meeting held on 25 October 2019. A Performance Right refers to a right to one issued ordinary share of the Company granted under the scheme for no consideration. To the extent the gateway hurdles are satisfied, 100% of the vesting will be based on the absolute earnings per share (aEPS) outcome. aEPS is based on the achievement of certain predetermined performance targets determined by the Committee. The Committee has the discretion to determine whether the performance targets have been met. The balances of Performance Rights are as follows: Grant FY 2019 FY 2020 FY 2021 Balance at 1 July Issued Vested Forfeited /Lapsed /Expired Balance at 30 June - 8,109,993 8,109,993 - - - - 8,109,993 (750,000) 7,359,993 7,359,993 8,578,000 (100,000) (4,198,993) 11,639,000 148 149 149 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 30 JUNE 2021 26.

Financial Information by Segments Management has determined the operating segments based on the internal reports which are regularly reviewed by the Operations Management that are used to make strategic decisions. The Operations Management comprises of the Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Acting Chief Financial Officer and the department heads of each operating segment. The business is managed primarily on the basis of different products and services as the diversification of the Group’s operations inherently have notably different risk profiles and performance assessment criteria. 152152 153 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 31. Financial Information by Segments (continued) Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics and are also similar with respect to the following: • • • • the products sold and/or services provided by the segment; the manufacturing process; the type or class of customer for the products or services; the distribution method; and • any external regulatory requirements. Although the Operations Management receives separate reports for each project in the Energy, Resources, and Infrastructure businesses, these have been aggregated into the respective reportable segments as they have similar long-term average gross margins. The three main reportable segments for the Group are: (1) Energy (2) Resources and (3) Infrastructure and Defence. The business activities include civil construction, fabrication, precast concrete, SMP (Structural, Mechanical and Piping Erection), insulation, maintenance and plant hire. Basis of accounting for purpose of reporting by operating segments (a) Accounting policies adopted Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief decision makers with respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the consolidated financial statements of the Group. (b) Inter-segment transactions An internally determined transfer price is set for all inter-segment sales. This price is reviewed quarterly and is based on what would be realised in the event the sale was made to an external party at arm’s length. All such transactions are eliminated on consolidation of the Group’s financial statements. Inter-segment loans payable and receivable are initially recognised at the consideration received/to be received net of transaction costs. (c) Segment assets and liabilities The Group does not identify nor segregate its assets and liabilities in operating segments as these are managed on a ‘group basis’. Geographical segments (secondary reporting) Revenue is based on the location of customers regardless of where the services are rendered.

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies The Group and the Company financial risk management policies set out the Group’s and the Company’s overall business strategies and its risk management philosophy. The Group and the Company are exposed to financial risks arising from its operations and the use of financial instruments. The key financial risks include credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s and the Company’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise adverse effects from the unpredictability of financial markets on the Group’s and the Company’s financial performance. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies and procedures for the management of these risks. The Audit Committee provides independent oversight to the effectiveness of the risk management process. The Group and the Company do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. As at 30 June 2021, the Group’s and the Company’s financial instruments mainly consisted of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, contract assets, trade and other payables, contract liabilities and borrowings. There has been no change to the Group’s and the Company’s exposures to these financial risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risk. Market risk exposures are measured using sensitivity analysis indicated below. (a) Credit Risk Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises primarily from trade and other receivables, contract assets and cash and cash equivalents. The Group adopts the policy of dealing only with: • Customers of appropriate credit standing and history, and obtaining sufficient collateral or buying credit insurance where appropriate to mitigate credit risk; and • High credit quality counterparties of at least an ‘A’ rating by external credit rating companies. Financial assets that are potentially subject to concentration of credit risk consist are principally bank deposits and receivables. The Group places its deposits with financial institutions and other creditworthy issuers and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one party. As at 30 June 2021, the Group has a concentration of credit risk on one debtor (2020: one debtor) that individually represents more than 49.1% (2020: 24.9%) of total trade and other receivables and contract assets. As the Group and the Company do not hold any collateral, the maximum exposure to credit risk for each class of financial instruments is the carrying amount of that class of financial instruments presented on the statement of financial position, except for financial guarantees as disclosed in Note 29 to the financial statements. The following sets out the Group’s internal credit evaluation practices and basis for recognition and measurement for expected credit losses (‘ECL’): Internal rating grades (i) Performing (ii) Under-performing (iii) Non-performing Definition The counterparty has a low risk of default and does not have any past-due amounts. Basis for recognition and measurement of ECL 12-month ECL There has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (>60 days past due). Lifetime ECL (not credit-impaired) There is evidence indicating that the asset is credit-impaired (>90 days past due). Lifetime ECL (credit-impaired) (iv) Write-off There is evidence indicating that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery as the debtor is in severe financial difficulty. Asset is written off 154 155 155 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 32. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) (a) Credit Risk (continued) Trade receivables and contract assets The Group’s objective is to seek continual revenue growth while minimising losses incurred due to increased credit risk exposure. The Group has adopted the policy of dealing with customers with an appropriate credit history as a means of mitigating the credit risk exposures. Credit evaluation which takes into account qualitative and quantitative profile of each customer is performed and approved by management before credit is being granted. The Group also closely monitors customers’ payment pattern and credit exposures on an on-going basis. The Group applies the simplified approach to provide for the ECL for all trade receivables and contract assets. The simplified approach requires the loss allowance to be measured at an amount equal to the lifetime ECL. The Group uses a provision matrix to measure the lifetime ECL allowance for trade receivables and contract assets. In measuring the ECL, trade receivables and contract assets are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and days past due. The contract assets relate mainly to unbilled work in progress, which have substantially the same risk characteristics as the trade receivables for the same type of contracts. The Group has therefore concluded that the expected loss rates for trade receivables are a reasonable approximation of the loss rates for the contract assets. In calculating the ECL rates, the Group considers historical loss rates for each category of customers, and adjusts for forward-looking macroeconomic data. The Group has identified the gross domestic product (‘GDP’) growth of the countries in which it sells goods and services to be the most relevant factor, and accordingly adjust the historical loss rates based on expected changes in this factor. The Group considers a financial asset as in default when the counterparty fail to make contractual payments for a prolonged period of time when they fall due, and the Group may also consider internal and external information, such as significant adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation. Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flow, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Group and it is becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation. Where receivables have been written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognised in profit or loss. Management has assessed and concluded that the ECL rate for trade receivables past due less than 1 year approximates Nil and is immaterial, while the ECL rate for trade receivables past due more than 1 year approximates 50% to 100%, except for specific cases where management has assessed the amount is still fully recoverable. The Group’s credit risk exposure in relation to trade receivables under SFRS(I) 9 as at 30 June 2021 and 2020 are set out in the provision matrix as follows: Group 2021 Trade receivables Loss allowance 2020 Trade receivables Loss allowance Current A$’000 Within 60 days A$’000 Past due 61 to 90 days A$’000 More than 90 days A$’000 Total A$’000 83,878 - 83,878 61,698 - 61,698 3,283 - 3,283 9,559 - 9,559 18 - 18 6 - 6 58 (11)* 47 2,919 (911)* 2,008 87,237 (11) 87,226 74,182 (911) 73,271 * Risk profile of the corresponding receivable is assessed separately from the other trade receivables. 156156 157 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 32. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) (a) Credit Risk (continued) Trade receivables and contract assets (continued) There is no ageing analysis for contract assets as these mainly relate to variable considerations which have yet to be invoiced. The Group has assessed and concluded that trade receivables are subject to immaterial credit loss. There has been no change in the estimation techniques or significant assumptions made during the current reporting year. Other receivables and receivables from subsidiaries and a related party The Group applies the general approach to provide for the ECL for other receivables and receivables from subsidiaries and a related party. Under the general approach, the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL at initial recognition. At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. When credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and includes forward-looking information. If credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition or if the credit quality of the financial instruments improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to 12-month ECL. Impairment of these balances have been measured on the 12-month ECL basis which reflects the low credit risk of exposures. These amounts are subject to immaterial credit loss. Impact of COVID-19 Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that COVID-19 pandemic has had, or may have, on the Group based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the Group operates. Unless otherwise addressed in specific notes, it has had no significant impact on the Group’s overall credit risk. Cash and cash equivalents The cash and bank balances are entered into with bank and financial institution counterparties, which are rated at least AA, based on international credit rating agencies. For the purpose of impairment, cash and cash equivalents has been measured on the 12-month expected loss basis and reflects the short maturities of the exposures. The Group considers that its cash and cash equivalents have low credit risk based on the external credit ratings of the counterparties. Financial guarantees The Company has issued financial guarantees to financial institutions for borrowings of its subsidiaries. These guarantees are subject to the impairment requirements of SFRS(I) 9. The Company has assessed that its subsidiaries have the financial capacity to meet the contractual cash flow obligations in the near future and hence, does not expect significant credit losses arising from these guarantees. 156 157 157 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 32. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) (b) Interest Rate Risk (continued) Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on floating rate instruments. Interest rate risk is managed using a mix of fixed and floating rate debt. At 30 June 2021, approximately 83% (2020: 97%) of the Group’s debt is fixed. The Group’s borrowings at variable rates are denominated mainly in A$. If the A$ interest rates increase/decrease by 1% (2020: 1%) with all other variables remain constant, the Group’s profit before tax will be approximately lower/higher by Nil (2020: A$21,000) as a result of higher/lower interest expenses on these borrowings. The Group and the Company has cash balances placed with reputable banks and financial institutions. Such balances are placed on varying maturities and generate interest income for the Group and the Company. The Group obtains additional financing through bank borrowings and leasing arrangements. Information relating to the Group’s interest rate exposure is also disclosed in the notes on the Group’s borrowings and leasing obligations. They are both fixed and floating rates of interest. The policy is to retain flexibility in selecting borrowings at both fixed and floating rates interest.

The Group and the Company manages this risk through the following mechanism: • Preparing forward-looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities; • Monitoring undrawn credit facilities; • Maintaining credit risk related to financial assets; • Obtaining funding from a variety of sources; • Only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions; and • Comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with the realisation profile of financial assets. Cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may therefore differ from that disclosed. The timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflect the earliest contractual settlement dates and do not reflect management’s expectations that banking facilities will be rolled forward. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying amount as the impact of discounting is not significant. 160160 161 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 32.

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) (d) Capital Management Management controls the capital of the Group in order to maintain a good debt-to-equity ratio, provide the shareholders with adequate returns and to ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets. The Group and the Company have no externally imposed capital requirements. Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distribution to shareholders and share issues. The net debt-to-equity ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total equity. Net debt is calculated as total financial liabilities less cash and cash equivalents. Net debt Total equity Net debt-to-equity ratio Group 2021 A$’000 226,319 291,868 0.78 2020 A$’000 245,543 263,073 0.93 There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the current financial year. (e) Fair Value Estimation Financial instruments The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities can be compared to their carrying values as presented in the statement of financial position. Fair values are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. Fair values derived may be based on information that is estimated or subject to judgement, where changes in assumptions may have a material impact on the amounts estimated. The fair value of current financial assets and financial liabilities approximate the carrying value due to the liquid nature of these assets and/or the short-term nature of these financial rights and obligations. The fair value of non-current receivables and borrowings are calculated based on discounted expected future principal and interest cash flows. The discount rates used are based on market rates for similar instruments at the reporting date. The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities are assumed to approximate their respective fair values. The Group does not anticipate that the carrying amounts recorded at the balance sheet date would be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled. 162162 163 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notes to the Financial Statements 30 JUNE 2021 32. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) (e) Fair Value Estimation (continued) Fair value hierarchy The Group categories fair value measurement using a fair value hierarchy that is depend on the valuation inputs used as follows: • • Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date; Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Fair value measurements that use inputs of different hierarchy levels are categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. 33. Litigation Perth Stadium Project In February 2019, the Group lodged a writ in the Supreme Court of Western Australia against Brookfield Multiplex Engineering and Infrastructure Pty Ltd (‘Brookfield Multiplex’), in relation to the valuation of additional time and changes to the works undertaken in the delivery of the new Perth Stadium project in Western Australia. The Group is seeking a determination from the Supreme Court to recover costs associated with the changes in scope and nature of the works required to be completed and for the granting of Practical Completion. 34. Adoption of New Standards The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except that in the current financial year, the Group has adopted all the new and revised standards which are effective for annual financial periods beginning on or after 1 July 2020. • Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-1 and SFRS(I) 1-8 Definition of material; • Amendments to SFRS(I) 3 Definition of business; • Amendments to SFRS(I) 9, SFRS(I) 1-39 and SFRS(I) 7 Interest rate benchmark reform; • Amendments to SFRS(I) 16 Related rent concessions.

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD James Finbarr Fitzgerald Executive Chairman 14 October 2021 170 171 171 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notice of Annual General Meeting Explanatory Notes: - (i) Ordinary Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.17 (and for all other purposes) to increase the total aggregate amount of fees payable to non-executive Directors to S$257,000. Listing Rule 10.17 provides that an entity must not increase the total aggregate amount of directors’ fees payable to all of its non-executive directors without the approval of holders of its ordinary securities. Directors’ fees include all fees payable by the entity or any of its child entities to a non-executive director for acting as a director of the entity or any of its child entities (including attending and participating in any board committee meetings), superannuation contributions for the benefit of a non-executive director and any fees which a non-executive director agrees to sacrifice for other benefits. It does not include reimbursement of genuine out of pocket expenses, genuine “special exertion” fees paid in accordance with an entity’s constitution, or securities issued to a non-executive director under Listing Rules 10.11 or 10.14 with the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities. If Ordinary Resolution 3 is passed, the maximum aggregate amount of fees payable to the non-executive Directors will increase by S$15,000 to S$257,000. The increase to maximum aggregate amount of fees payable may enable the Company to: (a) fairly remunerate both existing and any new non-executive directors joining the Board; (b) remunerate its non-executive Directors appropriately for the expectations placed upon them both by the Company and the regulatory environment in which it operates; and (c) have the ability to attract and retain non-executive directors whose skills and qualifications are appropriate for a company of the size and nature of the Company. If Ordinary Resolution 3 is not passed, the maximum aggregate amount of fees payable to non-executive Directors will remain at S$242,000. This may inhibit the ability of the Company to remunerate, attract and retain appropriately skilled non-executive directors. In the past three years, the Company has not issued any securities to non-executive Directors pursuant to ASX Listing Rules 10.11 and 10.14. (ii) Ordinary Resolution 7 and 14 relate to Mr Chong Teck Sin’s re-election as a Director of the Company and his continued designation as an Independent Non-Executive Director. As of 1 January 2022, Mr Chong would have been a Director of the Company for an aggregate period of more than 9 years and will cease to be regarded as independent on such date pursuant to Rule 210(5)(d)(iii) of the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST (which will come into effect on 1 January 2022), unless Resolution 7 and Resolution 14 are both passed. If Resolution 7 and Resolution 14 are both passed, Mr Chong will continue to be designated as an Independent Non- Executive Director of the Company for the duration specified in Resolution 14. If only Resolution 7 is passed but Resolution 14 is not passed, Mr Chong shall continue to be designated as an Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company up to and including 31 December 2021, and shall thereafter be re-designated as a non-independent Non-Executive Director as of and from 1 January 2022. Mr Chong will, upon re-election as Director of the Company, remain as Chairman of Audit Committee and Risks and Conflicts Committee and a member of Nominating and Remuneration Committees. Key information on Mr Chong can be found on the section “Board of Directors” of the Annual Report 2021. (iii) Ordinary Resolution 8 and 15 relate to Mr Wong Fook Choy’s re-election as a Director of the Company and his continued designation as an Independent Non-Executive Director. As of 1 January 2022, Mr Wong would have been a Director of the Company for an aggregate period of more than 9 years and will cease to be regarded as independent on such date pursuant to Rule 210(5)(d)(iii) of the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST (which will come into effect on 1 January 2022), unless Resolution 8 and Resolution 15 are both passed. If Resolution 8 and Resolution 15 are both passed, Mr Wong will continue to be designated as an Independent Non- Executive Director of the Company for the duration specified in Resolution 15. If only Resolution 8 is passed but Resolution 15 is not passed, Mr Wong shall continue to be designated as an Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company up to and including 31 December 2021, and shall thereafter be re-designated as a non-independent Non-Executive Director as of and from 1 January 2022. 172172 173 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notice of Annual General Meeting Explanatory Notes (continued) Mr Wong, will, upon re-election as Director of the Company, remain as Chairman of Remuneration Committee and a member of Audit, Risks and Conflicts and Nominating Committees. Key information on Mr Wong can be found on the section “Board of Directors” of the Annual Report 2021. (iv) Ordinary Resolution 9 and 16 relate to Mr Douglas Owen Chester’s re-election as a Director of the Company and his continued designation as an Independent Non-Executive Director. As of 1 January 2022, Mr Chester would have been a Director of the Company for an aggregate period of more than 9 years and will cease to be regarded as independent on such date pursuant to Rule 210(5)(d)(iii) of the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST (which will come into effect on 1 January 2022), unless Resolution 9 and Resolution 16 are both passed. If Resolution 9 and Resolution 16 are both passed, Mr Chester will continue to be designated as an Independent Non- Executive Director of the Company for the duration specified in Resolution 16. If only Resolution 9 is passed but Resolution 16 is not passed, Mr Chester shall continue to be designated as an Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company up to and including 31 December 2021, and shall thereafter be re-designated as a non-independent Non-Executive Director as of and from 1 January 2022. Mr Chester, will, upon re-election as Director of the Company, remain as Chairman of Nominating Committee and a member of Audit, Risks and Conflicts and Remuneration Committees. Key information on Mr Douglas Chester can be found on the section “Board of Directors” of the Annual Report 2021. (v) Each of Resolutions No. 4 to 9 are also included for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 14.5, which provides that an entity which has directors must hold an election of directors at each annual general meeting. (vi) Resolution No. 11, if passed, will empower the Directors of the Company from the date of the passing of Resolution No. 11 to the date of the next Annual General Meeting or the date by which the next Annual General Meeting of the Company is required by law to be held, whichever is the earlier, to issue shares in the capital of the Company and to make or grant instruments (such as warrants or debentures) convertible into shares, and to issue shares in pursuance of such instruments, up to an amount not exceeding in total 50% of the issued shares (excluding treasury shares and shares (if any) held by a subsidiary) in the capital of the Company, with a sub-limit of 20% of the issued shares (excluding treasury shares and shares (if any) held by a subsidiary) for issues other than on a pro-rata basis to shareholders. Any issue of securities pursuant to Resolution No. 11 will be made subject to the Company’s compliance with ASX Listing Rule requirements including, but not limited to, the Company’s ability to issue securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 at any given time. Resolution No. 11 is not a prior approval for the issue of securities pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. (vii) Resolution 12 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the employee incentive scheme titled “Civmec Key Senior Executives Performance Rights Plan” (Civmec PRP) and for the issue of Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)). The objective of the Civmec PRP is to attract, motivate and retain key senior executives and the Company considers that the adoption of the Performance Rights Plan and the future issue of Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP will provide selected employees with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company. As summarised in Explanatory Note (vi) above, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period. Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) provides that ASX Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if, within three years before the date of issue of the securities, the holders of the entity’s ordinary securities have approved the issue of equity securities under the scheme as exception to Listing Rule 7.1. Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of equity securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity’s notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the notice of meeting. 172 173 173 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notice of Annual General Meeting Explanatory Notes (continued) If Resolution 12 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP to eligible participants over a period of 3 years. The issue of any Performance Rights to eligible participants under the Civmec PRP (up to the maximum number of Performance Rights stated in sub-section (b) below) will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP to a related party or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained. To this end, the Company is seeking approval for the issue of Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP to Mr Kevin James Deery pursuant to Resolutions 13. If Resolution 12 is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP to eligible participants, but any issues of Performance Rights will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue of the Performance Rights. Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13), the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 12: (a) a summary of the key terms and conditions of the Civmec PRP is set out in the Schedule; (b) the Company has issued 15,937,993 Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP since the Civmec PRP was last approved by Shareholders on 25 October 2018; and (c) the maximum number of securities proposed to be issued under the Civmec PRP, following Shareholder approval, is 50,000,000 Performance Rights which includes the Performance Rights proposed to be issued under Resolutions 13. It is not envisaged that the maximum number of securities for which approval is sought will be issued immediately. (viii) Resolution No. 13 seeks shareholders’ approval for the grant of Performance Rights covering 334,000 Shares to Mr Kevin James Deery upon such terms to be determined by the Remuneration Committee in accordance with the rules of the Civmec PRP, and the allotment and issuance from time to time such number of fully-paid Shares as may be required to be delivered pursuant to the vesting of such Performance Rights under the Civmec PRP. Mr Kevin James Deery is Chief Operating Officer of the Company. ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that an entity must not permit any of the following persons to acquire equity securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities: 10.14.1 a director of the entity; or 10.14.2 an associate of a director of the entity; or 10.14.3 a person whose relationship with the entity or a person referred to in ASX Listing Rules 10.14.1 to 0.14.2 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the acquisition should be approved by security holders. The issue of Performance Rights to Mr Kevin James Deery falls within ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1 and therefore requires the approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. If Resolution No. 13 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Performance Rights to Mr Kevin James Deery under the Civmec PRP within 3 years after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Performance Rights (because approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14), the issue of the Performance Rights will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If Resolution No. 13 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Performance Rights to Mr Kevin James Deery under the Civmec PRP. Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed grant of the Performance Rights. 174174 175 CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021CIVMEC LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2021 Notice of Annual General Meeting Explanatory Notes (continued) (a) The Performance Rights will be issued to Mr Kevin James Deery, who falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.14.1, by virtue of being a Director.

(d) The Civmec PRP was adopted by shareholders on 25 October 2018. 1,940,000 Performance Rights have previously been issued to Mr Kevin James Deery for nil cash consideration under the Civmec PRP.

The Company has chosen to grant the Performance Rights to Mr Kevin James Deery for the following reasons: a. the Performance Rights are unlisted, therefore the grant of the Performance Rights has no immediate dilutionary impact on shareholders; b. the issue of Performance Rights to Mr Kevin James Deery will align the interests of Mr Kevin James Deery with those of shareholders; c. the issue of the Performance Rights is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to Mr Kevin James Deery; and d. it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in granting the Performance Rights on the terms proposed. (f) The Company values the Performance Rights at A$167,000 (being A$0.50 per Performance Right) based on the Black-Scholes methodology using the following assumptions: Valuation of the underlying Shares S0.575 Valuation date 01 October 2021 Commencement of performance/vesting period 01 July 2021 Performance measurement/vesting date Expiry date Term of the Performance Right Volatility (discount) Risk free interest rate Gross Dividend Yield 30 June 2024 30 June 2031 3 Years 25% 0.1% 5.0% (g) The issue price of the Performance Rights will be nil, as such no funds will be raised from the issue of the Performance Rights.

(i) No loan is being made to Mr Kevin James Deery in connection with the acquisition of the Performance Rights.
