Our year in review
We have continued to build on the momentum of the previous 
years, delivering good sales growth, increased margins and cash 
flows and an improvement in our return on capital employed.
KFC
KFC achieved solid growth as  
a result of good sales growth 
underpinned by innovative products, 
disciplined cost management and  
the strong performance of recent  
new restaurant acquisitions.
 ´ We invested in new restaurant developments and major 
remodels to provide customers a contemporary restaurant 
design for an enhanced dining experience 
 – Built six new restaurants
 –
Ten major remodels in Queensland and ten  
in Western Australia
 –
Eight minor remodels across the network
 ´ Customers responded to a very successful summer  
cricket marketing campaign
 ´ Product innovation was key in driving sales growth  
across the KFC business
Sizzler
While Sizzler Australia continues to 
be managed as non-core to Collins 
Foods’ strategic growth, the Sizzler 
Asia business has had a great year 
with royalty revenues up 14.5% on 
the prior year and a further six new 
restaurants built.
Snag Stand
Snag Stand continues to establish itself 
as a unique and innovative offering. 
A new Stand at Pacific Fair on the 
Gold Coast was opened late last year 
reflecting the shift in position of the 
Brand. This Stand has great customer 
appeal and has performed well so far.

Chairman’s message
Collins Foods Limited has continued to build on its strengths 
in 2016, and as a result has delivered another solid financial 
performance. As the largest KFC franchisee in Australia, it 
is pleasing that the Group’s flagship business led the way in 
achieving excellent results throughout the year. In March, the 
Company also achieved a milestone when it was included in 
the S&P ASX 300. 
The 2016 performance has resulted from a focus on disciplined 
management of our restaurants, together with an ongoing 
implementation of measures designed to optimise efficiencies. 
Overall, the Group reported a statutory Net Profit After Tax  
of $29.1m; an increase of 381% on the previous year.  
The Group’s revenue increased by 0.5% to $574.3m driven  
by same store sales growth and new restaurant openings.
The performance of the Western Australia and Northern 
Territory KFC restaurants acquired in 2014 continued to 
improve during 2016 with profits from this business reinvested 
into our restaurants to fund ongoing growth. 
On the back of this pleasing financial performance, the 
Company has paid shareholders a final dividend of 8 cents per 
share, bringing the full year dividend to 14 cents per share. The 
final dividend was paid on 13 July 2016. This 2016 dividend is 
in line with the Board’s commitment to pay out 50% of the 
full year profits, excluding those of KFC Western Australia and 
Northern Territory.
The Group’s focus on delivering value and innovation to our 
customers has been key to the success of our KFC business 
in the face of stiff competition and evolving consumer tastes 
and preferences.
Collins Foods will pursue growth opportunities in the current 
year as evidenced by our agreement to acquire 13 KFC 
restaurants around the New South Wales and Victorian border 
after the end of the 2016 financial year. This acquisition 
strengthens the Group’s national footprint and consolidates 
our position as the largest KFC franchisee in Australia.
The Sizzler Australia business is managed as a non-core part 
of the business with no further growth capital to be allocated. 
Despite this, the business continues to deliver positive EBITDA 
for the Group.
The Snag Stand business model continues to evolve and we 
have taken the Brand under the guidance of Collins Foods’ 
management by buying the remaining 50% of Snag Stand. 
Outlook
The Group is excited and optimistic about the opportunities 
that will emerge during the coming financial year and will 
continue to invest in the KFC business.
An ongoing focus on value and innovation which meets 
the evolving demands of our customers will be critical 
to our success. The Group’s growth will be secured by 
a focus on disciplined operational management of our 
restaurants, in addition to our commitment to continuously 
improving efficiencies.
In closing, I would like to thank my fellow Directors for their 
professionalism, experienced counsel and input throughout 
the year. On behalf of the Board, thanks must also go to our 
experienced management team led by Managing Director and 
CEO Graham Maxwell for their dedicated pursuit of improved 
performance across all of our businesses. Finally, I would also 
like to thank our talented employees, whose numbers have 
grown to more than 9,000 Australia wide throughout the 
Collins Foods business, for their tremendous dedication and 
effort to their respective brands in helping to deliver these 
excellent results.

CEO’s report
Collins Foods Limited delivered another strong performance 
in 2016. This performance builds upon the momentum of 
previous years, delivering good sales growth, increased 
margins and cashflow with improvement to our return on 
capital employed.
Throughout the year, we continued to focus on maximising 
operational performance, building a strong platform for 
growth and strengthening resilience within the business.
Growth of the KFC business
Collins Foods continues to pursue growth opportunities across 
Australia. The decision to acquire 13 KFC restaurants in the 
New South Wales/Victorian border area underscores our 
ambition and positions the Group for further growth in these 
Australian states. At completion, our KFC restaurant count in 
Australia will be 191. 
Financial performance
The strong business performance, against a challenging 
economic background, delivered Net Profit After Tax of 
$29.1m. Underlying Net Profit After Tax increased by  
22.3% to $30.1m compared to the prior year. 
Revenue for the year increased 0.5% over the prior year  
(the prior year was a 53 week year) with underlying EBITDA 
for the Group increasing by 10.7% to $74.6m. Underlying 
EBIT increased 16.0% to $52.4m.
Overall, the Group generated net operating cash flows of 
$49.7m, an increase of $0.5m on the prior year. This enabled 
net debt to be reduced by $10.3m to $112.5m, and improved 
the Group’s net leverage ratio (net debt to EBITDA) from  
1.83 to 1.52 at the end of the year. Return on capital 
employed increased 2.0 percentage points to 14.9%.
During the past year, the Group refinanced its existing 
syndicated debt facilities. The existing facilities of $165m were 
extended to $200m, with $65m (fully drawn) having a term to 
31 October 2018 and two facilities totalling $135m (drawn to 
$100m) having a term to 31 October 2020. The debt facilities 
will support the ongoing expansion of the business and assist 
in achieving long term sustainable earnings growth. 
Operational performance
KFC
KFC had a strong year, delivering overall revenue growth 
of 3.8% to $501.6m (the prior year was a 53 week year) 
and same store sales growth of 3.1%. Sales growth was 
underpinned to a large extent through providing our 
customers with craveable and innovative products while  
at the same time offering great value.
Overall EBITDA increased by 10.1% to $81.9m. This 
improvement of EBITDA margin reflects our ongoing focus  
on disciplined operational management.
During the financial period we continued to develop our 
network of KFC restaurants with a further six new restaurants 
being built – three in Queensland and three in Western 
Australia. We are committed to investing in our existing 
restaurants to ensure they meet the evolving needs of our 
customers and as such undertook 20 major remodels across 
the network (with an additional eight minor remodels).
We continued to focus on providing our customers with great 
experiences and products, delivered in a contemporary and 
welcoming environment. Ongoing focus on improving the 
speed of the drive-through and the increasing use of digital 
menu boards in our existing restaurants is also adding to the 
overall customer experience. 
The brand is increasing its presence on social media, using this 
platform for engaging with our younger customers to ensure 
that the brand remains relevant and in touch with their ever 
changing and fast paced lives.
Sizzler
Sizzler Australia continues to be managed as a non-core 
business. While sales were down on the prior year as a result 
of same store sales decline and the closure of four restaurants, 
EBITDA was maintained compared to the prior year.
Sizzler Asia had a strong year with royalty growth increasing 
14.5% over the prior year. A further six new restaurants 
were built, with five in Thailand and one in Japan. The overall 
number of Sizzler restaurants across Thailand, China and 
Japan now stands at 65. There are plans to build a further six 
new restaurants across Asia during the current financial year.
Snag Stand 
Snag Stand is establishing itself as a unique and innovative 
offering in the competitive fast casual environment. During 
the year we opened a new Snag Stand at Pacific Fair on the 
Gold Coast. This new Stand reflects the refined direction of 
the brand, has high customer appeal and has performed well 
to date. During the year we closed two Stands in Melbourne 
that did not reflect this new brand positioning. The Group 
now operates five Company owned Stands and one 
franchised Stand across Australia.

Health & Safety
Collins Foods is absolutely committed to providing a safe and 
healthy workplace across all of our operations and operating 
companies. We take our goal of zero harm to our employees, 
contractors and third party providers seriously and are 
committed to working with our employees to ensure that we 
continuously improve operational safety. Furthermore, we are 
equally committed to ensuring that our customers are never 
placed in any harm. 
Charitable support
As a Group, Collins Foods is committed to our continued 
support of charitable and community organisations. In 2016, 
through our Workplace Giving program we were able to 
donate almost $500,000 to the five charities we support. Of 
this figure employee donations totalled more than $290,000 
with the remainder comprising customer donations of 
approximately $100,000 which was matched by Collins Foods.
During the same period, Collins Foods also contributed more 
than $80,000 to World Hunger, raised through in restaurant 
customer donations and staff fundraising initiatives. As a 
Group, we also supported other sporting and community 
groups, such as Queensland Cricket, the Hear & Say Centre 
and Child Protection Week.
Conclusion
Collins Foods will continue to pursue growth opportunities 
across Australia. The decision to acquire 13 KFC restaurants 
in New South Wales/Victoria reflects this intent. In addition, 
we will grow the KFC business organically through existing 
store sales growth and building new restaurants. We will also 
explore any further acquisition opportunities that meet Collins 
Foods’ strategic criteria.
We will remain focused on maximising operational 
performance, building a strong platform for growth and 
strengthening resilience within the business. 
In closing, a big thank you to all of our employees across 
our restaurants and Support Centre for their dedication and 
commitment to making Collins Foods a great company. I look 
forward to another exciting year ahead as we focus on our 
key business priorities.

The Group’s total revenues increased by 0.5% to $574.3m mainly due to strong like-for-like sales growth and new restaurant 
openings across the KFC business. Excluding the additional trading week in the prior year (2015 was a 53 week year), total 
revenues were up by 2.4%.
This increase in total revenues combined with the continued good business controls flowed through to significantly increased 
EBITDA for the year of $74.6m, up 10.7% on prior year and improved net operating cash flow of $49.7m, up 1.1%.
Statutory EBITDA, EBIT, NPAT and EPS were impacted by significant items relating to Sizzler Australia totalling $1.6m pre-tax. 
Of these items, there were non-cash pre-tax impairment charges of $2.0m and a non-cash onerous lease provision of $1.3m 
mitigated by a cash gain on the sale of property of $1.7m.
Net assets at the Balance Sheet date were $189.7m, up from $171.3m as at 3 May 2015. Net debt was $112.5m at the  
Balance Sheet date, down from $122.8m as at 3 May 2015.
Underlying financial metrics excluding significant items which occurred in the current period are summarised as follows:

Review of underlying operations
KFC RESTAURANTS
There has been a good overall performance across the KFC business.
Revenues in KFC were up 3.8% on the prior corresponding period to $501.6m, driven by increased restaurant numbers as well 
as good same store sales growth.
Strong product promotions including another successful summer cricket campaign, great value offers and innovative new 
products and packaging all combined to drive increased traffic into our stores. More sophisticated use of social and digital media 
channels are keeping brand awareness and customer engagement high, and will also deliver increased value over time. 
KFC adjusted EBITDA was up $7.5m (+10.1%) on the previous corresponding period. Higher profit margins (+92bps) were 
achieved due to continued improvements in labour productivity and other efficiency measures which mitigated the impact of 
increases in key input costs, principally labour rates, and the ongoing challenge of a very competitive trading environment.
In order to keep the brand awareness and perception high, KFC invested circa $30m in new restaurants, refurbishment and 
systems capital. This supports ongoing growth as it keeps the restaurants looking contemporary and inviting for our customers 
and enables KFC to meet its restaurant refurbishment obligations with Yum!
SIZZLER RESTAURANTS
Revenues in Sizzler were down 17.9% on the prior corresponding period to $72.6m, with same store sales in Australia  
declining 11.4%.
The retail conditions in the casual dining space remain highly competitive. With the brand no longer considered core to strategic 
growth of the Group, no growth capital was allocated to this part of the business. During the year, four restaurants were closed 
in Australia. On an underlying basis, Sizzler EBITDA was up $0.8m (18.8%) on the previous corresponding period, due in part to 
excellent ongoing focus on cost management, enabling margins to be held despite the declining sales.
Sizzler franchise operations in Asia contributed an increase of $0.4m to this result over the prior corresponding period driven by 
increased royalty revenue. During the period, there was one restaurant closed in Japan. There were six new restaurant openings 
in the period, five of which were in Thailand and one in Japan. 
SNAG STAND
The focus of the joint venture management team has been on continuing the development and refinement of the Snag Stand 
concept. During the period, a new Snag Stand was opened at Pacific Fair, Gold Coast that incorporated new brand elements 
which reflect the latest thinking on the revised brand positioning. The Stand opened well and has been trading well since 
its opening.

Directors’ Report
Strategy and future performance
GROUP
The medium term strategy is to consolidate the KFC  
New South Wales and Victoria acquisition announced on  
19 May 2016, continue to further build economies of scale 
and grow the Group’s returns to enhance shareholder value. 
This could be through further KFC expansion opportunities in 
other states and territories or the acquisition or development 
of other operations in the retail food and restaurant 
industry sector.
KFC RESTAURANTS
KFC expects the retail environment to remain competitive 
with more moderate sales growth and upward pressure on 
input costs continuing, making it challenging to maintain 
existing margins. Future focus will be top line growth through 
strong product offerings and enhanced in-store customer 
experience, and opening of new stores in conjunction with 
disciplined cost control driving improved returns. 
SIZZLER RESTAURANTS
Sales trends in Sizzler Australia are expected to remain 
challenging, with same store sales growth in negative 
territory. However with disciplined cost control we expect to 
mitigate the impact of this decline on profitability. The Sizzler 
Australia business continues to be managed as no longer core 
to strategic growth in Australia. No further growth capital 
was invested in this business. The ongoing performance 
of the business continues to be closely monitored and 
appropriate action will be taken as and when necessary. 
In relation to its Asian operations, Sizzler’s strategy is to 
continue to expand the number of franchised site locations 
with up to six new restaurants anticipated to be opened 
during the next financial year.
SNAG STAND
Our investment in the start-up company Snag Stand provides 
an opportunity to invest in an innovative concept in the 
fast casual dining sector. The Snag Stand Group has been 
focused on improving operational performance in existing 
outlets as well as developing a pipeline for growth. The 
business operating model is being further refined with 
a focus on brand development, new store growth and 
operations efficiency.
MATERIAL RISKS
The material risks faced by the Group that have the potential 
to have an effect on the financial prospects of the Group,  
disclosed above, and how the Group manages these 
risks, include:
 ´ Reduction in consumer demand – given our reliance 
on consumer discretionary spending, adverse changes 
to the general economic landscape in Australia or 
consumer sentiment for our products could impact our 
financial results. We address this risk through keeping 
abreast of economic and consumer data/research, 
innovative product development, broadening of the 
menu offering (i.e. to include grilled product offerings) 
and brand building;
 ´ Supply chain disruption – disruption to the supply 
chain could impact on our ability to operate restaurants. 
We address this risk through use of multiple suppliers 
where possible with a diverse geographic base with 
multiple distribution routes;
 ´ Negative change to relationship with Yum! – given 
our obligations to Yum! through our Master Franchise 
Agreement and Facilities Action Deed, a negative 
change in the relationship could impact significantly our 
ability to open planned new stores, manage the cost of 
new store builds and refurbishments, and implement 
other growth and operational changes. We address this 
risk through maintaining a close working relationship 
with Yum!, having our team members sit on relevant 
KFC advisory groups and committees and monitoring 
compliance with obligations;
 ´ Safety – given we employ people to run and operate 
restaurants that provide food products to the public, 
a health or safety incident in our operations or health 
incident of a supplier or involving the input products we 
use, could impact our financial results. We address this 
risk through robust internal food safety and sanitation 
practices and occupational health and safety practices, 
audit programs, customer complaint processes, supplier 
partner selection protocols and communication policy 
and protocols;
 ´ Failure of growth drivers – given that a number of 
growth drivers continue to be at development stage, 
failure of these drivers to produce expected results could 
impact our financial performance. We address this risk 
through having an experienced management team, 
robust project management processes involving trials 
and staged rollouts and regular strategic reviews; and
 ´ Margin risk – given the highly competitive environment 
of the industry and high reliance on labour, produce, 
food and energy inputs, increases in the costs of these 
inputs could impact our financial results. We address this 
risk through brand building initiatives, keeping abreast 
of legislative changes, maintaining long term supplier 
relationships, group supply arrangements with Yum!, 
productivity and service flow initiatives, flexibility of 
operations and open communication with labour unions.

full ownership.

Additional comments on expected results of operations of the Group are included in the review of operations section of 
this Report.

The Board has charged its Remuneration and Nomination

making recommendations to the Board.
More specifically, the Committee is responsible for making 
recommendations to the Board on:
 ´ the Group’s remunerations principles, framework and 
policy for senior executives and Directors;
 ´ remuneration levels of senior management executives 
and Executive Directors;
 ´ the operation of incentives plans and other employee 
benefit programs which apply to senior executives; and
 ´ remuneration for Non-executive Directors.
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee operates in 
accordance with its Charter, a copy of which is available on 
the Company’s website.
In carrying out its responsibilities, the Committee is 
authorised to obtain external professional advice as it 
determines necessary.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The following annual fees (excluding superannuation) 
have applied.

memberships)

Additional fees
Audit and Risk Committee, Chair

Non-executive Directors’ remuneration comprises the 
following components:
 ´ Board and Committee Fees; and
 ´ superannuation (compulsory contributions).
Board fees are structured by having regard to the 
responsibilities of each position within the Board. Board 
Committee fees are structured to recognise the differing 
responsibilities and workload associated with each 
Committee and the additional responsibilities of each 
Committee Chairman.
The Company’s Constitution allows for additional payments 
to be made to Directors where extra or special services are 
provided. An additional payment of $30,000 was made to 
Newman Manion by the Group in recognition of additional 
responsibilities performed in relation to overseeing the Group’s 
investment in the Snag Stand group entities. This additional 
payment made to Newman Manion is not in relation to his role 
as a Director of the Company and as such, is not additional 
Director’s fees. Following the end of the reporting period, the 
Company has increased its investment in Snag Stand to 100%. 
As a result of the Snag Stand group entities becoming wholly 
owned subsidiaries of the Company, the ongoing additional 
responsibilities previously held by Newman Manion in relation 
to overseeing the Group’s investment in the Snag Stand group 
entities have ceased. 
Non-executive Directors do not receive any performance 
or incentive-based pay. However, to promote further 
alignment with shareholders, the Non-executive Directors 
are encouraged to hold shares in the Company that are 
purchased on marked and of their own accord.
Directors’ shareholdings in the Company are outlined in 
Section 10 of this report. 
Non-executive Directors’ fees and payments are reviewed 
annually by the Board. Non-executive Directors’ fees are 
determined within an aggregate limit (including superannuation 
contributions). In accordance with the Company’s Constitution, 
an initial limit was set by the Board on 15 July 2011 in the 
amount of $700,000. There were no changes made during the 
reporting period in relation to Non-executive Directors’ fees.
5 
 Executive remuneration 
principles and strategy
The performance of the Group is contingent upon the calibre 
of its Directors and executives. The Group’s remuneration 
framework is based upon the following key principles:
 ´ a policy that enables the Company to attract and retain 
valued Directors and executives who create value for 
shareholders;
 ´ motivating executives and Executive Directors to pursue 
long term growth and success of the Group, aligned 
with shareholder’s interests;
 ´ demonstrating a clear relationship between performance 
and remuneration;
 ´ regard to prevailing market conditions;
 ´ reflective of short term and long term performance 
objectives appropriate to the Company’s circumstances 
and goals;
 ´ transparency; and
 ´ fairness and acceptability to shareholders.
The remuneration for executives is structured, taking into 
consideration the following factors:
 ´ the Group’s remuneration principles;
 ´ the level and structure of remuneration paid to  
executives of other publicly listed Australian companies  
of similar size;
 ´ the position and responsibilities of each executive; and
 ´ appropriate benchmarks and targets to reward executives 
for Group and individual performance.

Directors’ Report
Remuneration Report (continued)
The executive remuneration framework components and their links to performance outcomes are outlined below:
Remuneration component
Vehicle
Purpose
Fixed remuneration
Base pay and benefits 
including superannuation
Short Term Incentive Plan 
(STIP)
Cash bonus payment
To provide competitive 
fixed remuneration set with 
reference to position and 
responsibilities in the context 
of the market
Rewards executives for 
their contribution to the 
achievement of Group  
and/or divisional outcomes
Link to performance
Group and individual 
performance assessments 
are considered in an annual 
remuneration review
EBITDA targets must be met in 
order for bonus to be paid
Long Term Incentive 
Plan (LTIP) (approved by 
shareholders at the 2013 
Annual General Meeting)
Awards in the form of 
performance rights
Rewards executives for their 
contribution to the creation 
of shareholder value over the 
longer term
Earnings per share (EPS) 
targets over three year period 
must be met in order for rights 
to vest
The Group’s aim is to reward executives with an appropriate level and mix of remuneration to attract, retain and motivate them 
to build long term value for the Group and its shareholders.
The introduction of the LTIP has changed the remuneration mix for KMP, resulting in a proportion of an executive’s target pay 
being at risk.
The effect of the introduction of the LTIP is that a percentage of the executive’s remuneration is ‘at risk’ and directly linked to 
Group performance in both the short and longer term.
FIXED REMUNERATION
Fixed remuneration consists of base salary, superannuation contributions and other benefits. Other benefits include non-cash 
benefits such as employee health insurance costs paid by the Group and car and other allowances. The Group pays fringe 
benefits tax on these benefits where required.
Fixed remuneration for executives is reviewed annually and on promotion, and is benchmarked against market data for 
comparable roles in the market. There is no guaranteed increase to base pay included in any executive’s contract.
VARIABLE REMUNERATION
Short term incentives
Incentives under the Group’s STIP are at risk components of remuneration for executives provided in the form of cash.
The STIP entitles executives to earn an annual cash reward payment if predefined targets are achieved. The level of the incentive 
is set with reference to the accountabilities of the executive’s role and their ability to impact Group performance.
For the Managing Director & CEO the target Short Term Incentive (STI) opportunity percentage is 50% of base salary. For other 
executive KMP, the average target STI opportunity percentage is approximately 50% of base salary.
For the period covered by this report, the primary key performance indicator common to all participants was EBITDA. The 
benchmark EBITDA level at which the target STI opportunity would become payable was 101% of the annual Group budgeted 
EBITDA (prior to allowing for any payments under the STIP). A proportion of target incentives would become payable on 
a sliding scale for achievement above a minimum EBITDA level up to a maximum EBITDA level. At the minimum EBITDA 
level of 101% of the annual Group Budgeted EBITDA, 15% of target STI opportunity would be payable. At the maximum 
EBITDA level of 110% of the annual Group Budgeted EBITDA, 150% of target STI opportunity would be payable.
The EBITDA benchmarks were set with reference to the annual Group Budgeted EBITDA for the year ended 1 May 2016. 
The Group’s financial performance for the financial period ended 1 May 2016 resulted in all Executive Directors and KMP being 
eligible for a STI payment, refer details of KMP remuneration below.
Incentive levels and performance targets are reviewed and determined annually by the Board on the advice of the Remuneration 
and Nomination Committee.

Long term incentives
At the Company’s 2013 Annual General Meeting, shareholders approved the introduction of the LTIP. A summary of the LTIP 
approved by shareholders appears below.
LTIP SUMMARY
Why was the LTIP introduced?
Who participates in the LTIP?
What form are the LTIP awards?
What quantum of awards will participants receive 
under the LTIP?
When are the grants made?
When do the performance rights vest?
How is EPS measured?
What EPS targets are required for vesting of 
performance rights?
What happens if the performance rights do not vest?
Change of Control
To ensure the Group’s remuneration framework is aligned 
with both the Group’s business strategy and the long term 
interests of shareholders.
The initial participants in the plan are KMP and other select 
senior executives.
Awards are granted in the form of performance rights, 
which comprise rights to acquire ordinary shares in the 
Company for nil consideration, subject to achievement of 
predetermined Vesting Conditions.
A guiding principle for the initial grant is for awards to 
generally equate to 30% to 40% of a participant’s target 
STI opportunity.
Performance rights are granted annually at the sole 
discretion of the Board, with grants of awards made as 
soon as practicable following the Company’s Annual 
General Meeting.
LTIP performance rights vest three years following the 
date of grant, subject to achievement of EPS targets. For 
the FY16 grant, performance will be tested following 
determination of the basic EPS for the financial period 
ending 28 April 2019, compared to the basic EPS for the 
financial period ended 1 May 2016.
EPS will be measured on an absolute basis, calculating the 
compound growth in the Company’s basic EPS attributable 
to ordinary equity holders of the Company over the 
performance period, with reference to the disclosed EPS in 
the Company’s annual audited financial reports. The Board 
retains a discretion to adjust the EPS performance condition 
to ensure that participants are not penalised nor provided 
with a windfall benefit arising from matters outside of 
management’s control that affect EPS (for example, 
excluding one-off non-recurrent items or the impact of 
significant acquisitions or disposals).
Performance rights will vest on a proportionate basis ranging 
from 20% to 100% of rights granted for achievement of a 
minimum EPS target up to a maximum EPS target. For the 
grant of awards, the minimum EPS target is 6% compound 
annual growth rate (CAGR) and the maximum EPS target is 
10% CAGR.
To the extent that performance hurdles are not met at the 
end of the three year performance period, performance will 
not be re-tested and the rights will lapse.
If in the opinion of the Board a change of control event 
has occurred, or is likely to occur, the Board may declare 
a performance right to be free of any vesting conditions 
and, if so, the Company must issue or transfer shares in 
accordance with the LTIP rules. In exercising its discretion, 
the Board will consider whether measurement of the vesting 
conditions (on a pro-rata basis) up to the date of the change 
of control event is appropriate in the circumstances.

Directors’ Report
Remuneration Report (continued)
LTIP SUMMARY
Rights and restrictions of Performance Rights
Performance Rights are not entitled to receive a dividend. 
Any Shares issued or transferred to a Participant upon 
vesting of Performance Rights are only entitled to dividends 
if they were issued on or before the relevant dividend 
entitlement date.
The Company may impose a mandatory holding lock on 
the Shares or a Participant may request they be subject to a 
voluntary holding lock.
Shares issued or transferred under the LTIP rank equally in 
all respects with other Shares on issue.
In the event of a reconstruction of the Company 
(consolidation, subdivision, reduction, cancellation or 
return), the terms of any outstanding Performance Rights 
will be amended by the Board to the extent necessary to 
comply with the Listing Rules at the time of reconstruction.
Any bonus issue of securities by way of capitalisation of 
profits, reserves or share capital account will confer on each 
Performance Right, the right:
 ´ to receive on exercise or vesting of those Performance 
Rights, not only an allotment of one Share for each of 
the Performance Rights exercised or vested but also 
an allotment of the additional Shares and/or other 
securities the Employee would have received had the 
Employee participated in that bonus issue as a holder 
of Shares of a number equal to the Shares that would 
have been allotted to the Employee had they exercised 
those Incentives or the Performance Rights had vested 
immediately before the date of the bonus issue; and
 ´ to have profits, reserves or share premium account, 
as the case may be, applied in paying up in full those 
additional Shares and/or other securities.
Subject to a reconstruction or bonus issue, Performance 
Rights do not carry the right to participate in any new issue 
of securities including pro-rata issues.
Performance Rights will not be quoted on ASX. The 
Company will apply for quotation of any Shares issued 
under the LTIP.
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee considered alternative performance measures, including market-based measures, 
but after consideration of a variety of factors including the Group’s business objectives, the fact the Group is not a capital 
intensive business and the lack of a meaningful comparator group, determined that EPS was an appropriate measure. EPS aligns 
with the Group’s business objectives and shareholder interests, is straightforward, simple to communicate and a commonly used 
measure by other ASX listed companies. The appropriateness of LTI performance targets and vesting conditions will continue to 
be regularly reviewed by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee.
In relation to the setting of performance target levels, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee took into account the 
current structure and operation of the STIP under which target performance levels are set at stretch levels.

Directors and other KMP of the Group, and their personally related entities, may purchase goods from the Company or its

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS
The Company’s Constitution provides that it must in the case of a person who is or has been a Director or Secretary of the Group, 
and may in the case of an officer of the Company, indemnify them against liabilities incurred (whilst acting as such officers) and the 
legal costs of that person to the extent permitted by law. During the period, the Company has entered into a Deed of Indemnity, 
Insurance and Access with each of the Company’s Directors, Group CFO, CFO Australia and Company Secretary.
No Director or officer of the Company has received benefits under an indemnity from the Company during or since the end of 
the period.
The Company has paid a premium for insurance for officers of the Group. The cover provided by the insurance contract is 
customary for this type of insurance policy. Details of the nature of the liabilities covered or the amount of the premium paid in 
respect of this insurance contract are not disclosed as such disclosure is prohibited under the insurance contract.
PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY
No proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the Company with leave of the Court under section 237 of the 
Corporations Act 2001.
Non-audit services 
During the period, the Company’s Auditor (PricewaterhouseCoopers) performed other services in addition to its audit 
responsibilities. Whilst their main role is to provide external audit services to the Company, the Company does employ their 
specialist advice where appropriate.
The Board of Directors has considered the position and, in accordance with advice received from the Audit and Risk Committee, 
is satisfied that the provision of the non-audit services is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors 
imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the auditor, as set 
out below, did not compromise the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
 ´ all non-audit services have been reviewed by the Audit and Risk Committee to ensure they do not impact the impartiality 
and objectivity of the auditor; and
 ´ none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence, including not reviewing or auditing 
the auditor’s own work, not acting in a management or a decision making capacity for the Company, not acting as advocate 
for the Company, or not jointly sharing economic risk or rewards.
During the period the following fees were paid or payable for non-audit services provided by the auditor of the parent entity, its 
related practices and non-related audit firms:
Other assurance services
PricewaterhouseCoopers Australian firm
Store sales certificates
Agreed upon procedures for covenant calculations
Network firms of PricewaterhouseCoopers Australia
Total remuneration for assurance services
Taxation services
PricewaterhouseCoopers Australian firm
Tax compliance services, including review of company tax returns

$6,279,000 and other expenses $27,146,000). 
(2)  Other expenses in the 2016 reporting period include a charge for an onerous lease of $1,250,000 and restaurant smallwares write-off of $740,000. 
(3)  Other income in the 2016 reporting period includes a gain on disposal of land and building of $1,746,000.

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision 
maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing the performance of the 
operating segments, has been identified as the Managing Director & CEO. 
DESCRIPTION OF SEGMENTS 
Management has determined, following the integration of the KFC Western Australia and Northern Territory restaurants, 
the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Managing Director & CEO that are used to make strategic 
decisions. Hence three reportable segments have been identified: KFC Restaurants (competing in the quick service restaurant 
market), Sizzler Restaurants (competing in the full service restaurant market) and Shared Services which performs a number of 
administrative and management functions for the Group’s KFC and Sizzler Restaurants.

A1/ Segment information (continued)
Adjusted EBITDA
The Board assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of adjusted EBITDA. This measurement 
basis excludes the effects of costs associated with the acquisition of Collins Restaurants West Pty Ltd and the investment in the 
Snag Stand Group. Impairment of property, plant, equipment, franchise rights, brand assets and goodwill are also excluded to 
the extent they are isolated non-recurring events. Net finance costs (including the impact of derivative financial instruments) are 
not allocated to segments as this type of activity is driven by the central treasury function, which manages the cash position of 
the Group.
A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to profit/(loss) from continuing operations before income tax is provided as follows:
Adjusted EBITDA
Finance costs – net
Long term incentive provision
Performance rights
Depreciation
Amortisation
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
Impairment of KFC franchise rights
Impairment of Sizzler brand – Australia
Impairment of Sizzler goodwill

ACCOUNTING POLICY 
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised 
when the Group has passed control of the goods to the customer, interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using 
the effective interest method and traineeship income is recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established.

A subsidiary of the Company, CFG Finance Pty Limited, is the primary borrower under a Syndicated Facility Agreement 
(Syndicated Facility) and a Working Capital Facility Agreement (Working Capital Facility). On 15 December 2015 the Group 
completed an amendment to these existing facilities including an increase in the syndicated facility to $200m and an increase  
to the working capital facility to $15m. The Syndicated Facility includes a $65m tranche which expires 31 October 2018.  
All other borrowing facilities expire on 31 October 2020.
Facilities 
The Syndicated Facility and Working Capital Facility are subject to certain financial covenants and restrictions such as net 
leverage ratios, interest coverage ratios and others which management believe are customary for these types of loans. During 
the reporting period ended 1 May 2016, the Group maintained compliance with the financial covenants and restrictions of these 
facilities. The Company and its subsidiaries (other than subsidiaries outside of the Closed Group) were registered guarantors of 
all the obligations in respect of these loan facilities.
ACCOUNTING POLICY 
Bank loans are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at 
amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in 
the Consolidated Income Statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the 
establishment of loan facilities, which are not transaction costs relating to the actual draw-down of the facility, are capitalised 
and amortised on a straight-line basis over the term of the facility.
Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required  
to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed.
B3/ Ratios
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Group manages its capital by maintaining a strong capital base. The Group assesses its capital base by reference to its 
gearing ratio, which it defines as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as borrowings (excluding capitalised 
fees) less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as total equity as shown in the balance sheet plus net debt.  
At balance date, the gearing ratio was 37% (2015: 42%).

The above amount represents the balance of the franking account as at the end of the reporting period, adjusted for:
 ´ franking credits that will arise from the payment of income tax payable as at the end of the reporting period;
 ´ franking debits that will arise from the payment of dividends recognised as a liability at the reporting date; and 
 ´ franking credits that may be prevented from being distributed in the subsequent reporting period.
The consolidated amounts include franking credits that would be available to the parent entity if distributable profits of 
subsidiaries were paid as dividends.
Since the end of the reporting period, the Directors of the Company have declared the payment of a fully franked final dividend 
of 8.0 cents per ordinary share ($7.4m) to be paid on 13 July 2016. The aggregate amount of the dividend to be paid on that 
date, but not recognised as a liability at the end of the reporting period is $7,440,000.
ACCOUNTING POLICY
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the 
Company, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at balance date.

C/ FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
This section provides information relating to the Group’s exposure to financial risks, how they affect the financial position 
and performance, and how the risks are managed.
C1/ Financial risk management
C2/ Recognised fair value measurements
C3/ Derivative financial instruments
C1/ Financial risk management 
The Board of Directors has delegated specific authorities to 
the central finance department in relation to financial risk 
management. The finance department identifies, evaluates 
and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the 
Group’s operating units. The Board has provided written 
policies covering the management of interest rate risk and the 
use of derivative financial instruments. All significant decisions 
relating to financial risk management require specific approval 
by the Board of Directors.
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial 
risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest risk and 
price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. In addition, the 
Group manages its capital base. The Group’s overall risk 
management program focuses on the unpredictability of 
financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse 
effects on the financial performance of the Group. The 
Group’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risk of 
changes in interest rates and it utilises Swap Contracts to 
manage its interest rate risk exposure. The use of financial 
instruments is governed by the Group’s policies approved 
by the Board of Directors, and are not entered into for 
speculative purposes. 
MARKET RISK
Foreign exchange risk
During 2016 and 2015, the financial instruments of the Group 
and the parent entity were denominated in Australian dollars 
apart from certain bank accounts, trade receivables and trade 
payables in respect of the Group’s Asian operations which 
were denominated in foreign currencies at the Group level. 
Management has decided not to hedge this foreign exchange 
risk exposure. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk is 
disclosed in the tables below.
Cash flow and interest rate risk
The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long term 
borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the 
Group to cash flow interest rate risk while borrowings issued 
at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. 
It is the policy of the Group to protect a designated portion 
of the loans from exposure to increasing interest rates. 
Accordingly, the Group has entered into interest rate swap 
contracts (Swap Contract) under which it is obliged to receive 
interest at variable rates and to pay interest at fixed rates.
Information about the Group’s variable rate borrowings, 
outstanding Swap Contracts and an analysis of maturities at 
the reporting date is disclosed in Notes C1 and C3. 
Price risk
The Group manages commodity price risk by forward 
contracting prices on key commodities and by being actively 
involved in relevant supply co-operatives.
CREDIT RISK
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative 
financial instruments, deposits with banks, other trade 
receivables and receivables from related parties. The Group 
has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy 
counterparties and in the situation of no independent rating 
being available, will assess the credit quality of the customer 
taking into account its financial position, past experience and 
other factors.
Trade receivables consist of a small number of customers and 
ongoing review of outstanding balances is conducted on a 
periodic basis. The balance outstanding (disclosed in Note 
F3) is not past due, nor impaired (2015: nil past due). The 
credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments 
is limited as the counterparties are banks with high credit 
ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies.
Related party transactions are conducted on commercial 
terms and conditions. Recoverability of these transactions are 
assessed on an ongoing basis. 
Credit risk further arises in relation to financial guarantees 
given to certain parties, refer to Notes B2 and G1 for details. 
LIQUIDITY RISK
The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate 
reserves, banking facilities and reserve banking facilities by 
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. This 
approach enables the Group to manage short, medium and 
long term funding and liquidity management as reported in 
Note B2. Non-interest bearing liabilities are due within six 
months. For maturities of interest bearing liabilities and Swap 
Contracts of the Group, refer to Notes C1 and C3.

MATURITIES OF FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
The tables below analyse the Group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual 
maturities for:
 ´ all non-derivative financial liabilities; and
 ´ net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of 
the timing of the cash flows.
The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their 
carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant. For Swap Contracts the cash flows have been estimated using 
forward interest rates applicable at the end of each reporting period.

C2/ Recognised fair value measurements 
FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY
Judgements and estimates are made in determining the fair values of assets and liabilities that are recognised and measured at 
fair value in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, 
the Group has classified such assets and liabilities into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards. 
The fair values of derivative instruments are determined as the estimated amount that the Group and the Company would 
receive or pay to terminate the interest rate swap at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the current 
interest rate.
The Directors consider that the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements 
approximate to their fair values.
Financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value are grouped into Levels 1 to 3, based on 
the degree to which the fair value is observable. The different levels have been identified as follows:
 ´ quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1);
 ´ inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) 
or indirectly (derived from prices) (Level 2); and
 ´ inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3).
As at 1 May 2016, the Group has derivative financial instruments which are classified as Level 3 financial instruments.  
There are no Level 1 or Level 2 financial instruments. As at 3 May 2015, the Group had derivative financial instruments  
which were classified as Level 3 financial instruments. There were no Level 1 or Level 2 financial instruments.
DISCLOSED FAIR VALUES
The Group also has assets and liabilities which are not measured at fair value, but for which fair values are disclosed in the notes 
to the financial statements.
Receivables
Due to the short term nature of the current receivables, their carrying amount is assumed to be the same as their fair value.  
For the majority of non-current receivables, the fair values are not materially different to their carrying amounts, since the 
interest on those receivables is close to current market rates.
Trade and other payables
Due to the short term nature of the trade and other payables, their carrying amount is assumed to be the same as their fair value. 
Borrowings
The fair value of borrowings is as follows:

They are classified as Level 3 values in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs, including the credit risk  
of the Group.
VALUATION PROCESSES
The finance department of the Group engages a third party expert valuation firm that performs the valuation of derivative 
financial instruments that are required to be measured, recognised and disclosed in the financial statements, at fair value.  
This includes Level 3 fair values. The finance department reports directly to the Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the  
Audit and Risk Committee (ARC). Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the CFO, ARC and the  
finance department at least once every six months, in line with the Group’s half-year reporting periods.
The main Level 3 inputs used by the Group are derived and evaluated as follows:
 ´ discount rates for financial assets and financial liabilities are determined using a capital asset pricing model to calculate  
a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the asset.
Changes in Level 2 and Level 3 fair values are analysed at the end of each reporting period during the half-year valuation 
discussion between the CFO, ARC and the finance department. As part of this discussion the finance department presents  
a report that explains the reason for the fair value movements.

ACCOUNTING POLICY
INVESTMENTS AND OTHER FINANCIAL ASSETS 
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments 
and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. 
Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at each 
reporting date.
All investments and other financial assets with the exception of held-to-maturity investments and loans and receivables are 
measured at fair value. Held-to-maturity investments and loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost. 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. Changes in fair value are either taken to the 
Consolidated Income Statement or an equity reserve.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active 
market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting date 
which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in current receivables (Note F3) and non-current 
receivables (Note F3) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Available-for-sale financial assets are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment 
within 12 months of the end of the reporting period. Investments are designated as available-for-sale if they do not have 
determinable payments and management intends to hold them for the medium to long term.

INSTRUMENTS USED BY THE GROUP
The Group is party to derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business in order to hedge exposure to fluctuations 
in interest rates in accordance with the Group’s financial risk management policies.
INTEREST RATE SWAP CONTRACTS – CASH FLOW HEDGES 
During the year ended 1 May 2016 the Group entered into the following Swap Contracts to hedge a designated portion of the 
interest rate exposure of the facility:
 ´ $48.75m commencing on 31 October 2016, with a maturity date of 31 October 2018; and 
 ´ $75m commencing on 31 October 2018, with a maturity date of 31 October 2020.
Swap Contracts currently in place cover approximately 74% (2015: 74%) of the loan principal outstanding and are timed to 
expire as each loan repayment falls due. The variable rates are BBSY which at balance date was 2.14% (2015: 2.18%). The 
notional principal amounts, periods of expiry and fixed interest rates applicable to the Swap Contracts are as follows:

The Swap Contracts require settlement of net interest receivable or payable each month. The settlement dates coincide with the 
dates on which interest is payable on the underlying debt. The Swap Contracts are settled on a net basis. The derivative financial 
instruments were designated as cash flow hedges at inception.

The Group utilises interest rate swap contracts which are 
designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of 
changes in the fair value of swap contracts is recognised in 
other comprehensive income and accumulated in reserves 
in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion 
is recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income 
Statement. Changes in fair value of any derivative instrument 
that does not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised 
immediately in the Consolidated Income Statement. Amounts 
accumulated in equity are recycled in the Consolidated 
Income Statement in the periods when the hedged item will 
affect profit or loss. 
The Group will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively 
only when the hedging relationship, or part of the hedging 
relationship no longer qualifies for hedge accounting, 
which includes where there has been a change to the risk 
management objective and strategy for undertaking the 
hedge and instances when the hedging instrument expires 
or is sold, terminated or exercised. For this purpose, the 
replacement or rollover of a hedging instrument into another 
hedging instrument is not an expiration or termination if such 
a replacement or rollover is consistent with our documented 
risk management objective.
When hedge accounting is discontinued any cumulative 
gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in 
equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is 
ultimately recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement. 
When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to 
occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in 
equity is immediately transferred to the Consolidated 
Income Statement.
C3/ Derivative financial instruments (continued)
CREDIT RISK EXPOSURES
At 1 May 2016, the Swap Contracts gave rise to payables for 
unrealised losses on derivative instruments of $4.4m (2015: 
$4.6m) for the Group. Management has undertaken these 
contracts with the Australia and New Zealand Banking Group 
Limited which is an AA rated financial institution.
ACCOUNTING POLICY
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a 
derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-
measured to their fair value. The method of recognising the 
resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is 
designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of 
the item being hedged. 
At the start of a hedge relationship, the Group formally 
designates and documents the hedge relationship, including 
the risk management strategy for undertaking the hedge. This 
includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged 
item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged 
and how the entity will assess the hedging instrument’s 
effectiveness. Hedge accounting is only applied where 
effective tests are met on a prospective basis.

D2/ Share based payments 
LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN – PERFORMANCE RIGHTS
The Company has a Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) designed to provide long term incentives for certain employees, including 
executive directors. Under the plan, participants are granted performance rights over shares. The number of performance rights 
is calculated by dividing the dollar value of the participant’s long term incentive by the ASX volume weighted average price of 
the shares for the five trading days prior to the date of offer of the performance rights.
Unless otherwise determined by the Board in its discretion, performance rights are issued for nil consideration. The amount of 
performance rights that will vest depends upon the achievement of certain vesting conditions, including the satisfaction of a 
minimum 12 month term of employment and the achievement of earnings per share (EPS) growth targets by the Company. The 
EPS growth targets must be achieved over a three year performance period. Performance rights will automatically vest on the 
business day after the Board determines the vesting conditions have all been satisfied (Vesting Determination Date).
The performance rights will automatically exercise on the Vesting Determination Date unless that date occurs outside a trading 
window permitted under the Company’s Securities Trading Policy, in which case the performance rights will exercise upon the 
first day of the next trading window. Upon exercise of the performance rights, the Company must issue or procure the transfer 
of one share for each performance right, or alternatively may in its discretion elect to pay the cash equivalent value to the 
participant. 
Performance rights will lapse on the first to occur of:
 ´ the expiry date;
 ´ the vesting conditions not being satisfied by the Vesting Determination Date;
 ´ unless the Board otherwise determines, by the cessation of the employment of the employee to whom the offer of 
performance rights was made. The Board determination will depend upon the reason for employment ceasing (resignation, 
dismissal for cause, death or illness).
Performance rights when issued under the LTIP are not entitled to receive a dividend and carry no voting rights.

All performance rights issued during the reporting period ended 1 May 2016 have an expiry date of 24 July 2018 and were 
issued with an exercise price of nil. All performance rights issued during the reporting period ended 3 May 2015 have an expiry 
date of 26 July 2017 and were issued with an exercise price of nil.
FAIR VALUE OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS ISSUED
There were two tranches of performance rights issued during the reporting period ended 1 May 2016. 
The assessed fair value of performance rights issued on 1 October 2015 was an average of $2.77. The fair value at issuance date 
was determined using a discounted cash flow model incorporating the share price at issuance date of $3.22, the term of the 
right, the expected dividend yield of 4.88% and the risk free interest rate for the term of the rights of 2.06%.
The assessed fair value of performance rights issued on 22 December 2015 was an average of $4.14. The fair value at issuance 
date was determined using a discounted cash flow model incorporating the share price at issuance date of $4.61, the term of 
the right, the expected dividend yield of 3.65% and the risk free interest rate for the term of the rights of 2.02%.
Performance rights issued during the reporting period ended 3 May 2015 were at an average of $1.89 per right.
ACCOUNTING POLICY
Equity settled share based payments are measured at the fair value of the equity instrument at the date of grant.
The fair value of performance rights granted is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in 
equity. The determination of fair value includes consideration of any market performance conditions and the impact of any  
non-vesting conditions but excludes the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions.
Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of performance rights that are expected to vest. 
The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are 
to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of performance rights that are expected 
to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit 
and loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in proportion to 
the number of shares held. On a show of hands every holder of ordinary shares present at a meeting in person or by proxy is 
entitled to one vote. Upon a poll each share is entitled to one vote. Ordinary shares have no par value and the Company does 
not have a limited amount of authorised capital.
ACCOUNTING POLICY 
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual 
arrangement. Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or 
options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from proceeds.

ACCOUNTING POLICY
Under AASB 11 Joint Arrangements, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures. 
The classification depends on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint 
arrangement. The Group has two joint ventures. Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of 
accounting, after initially being recognised at cost in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise 
the Group’s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the investee in profit or loss, and the Group’s share of movements 
in other comprehensive income of the investee in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from joint 
ventures are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
When the Group’s share of losses in an equity accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, including any 
other unsecured long term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made 
payments on behalf of the other entity.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest 
in the entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset 
transferred. Accounting policies of equity accounted investees have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with 
the policies adopted by the Group.

ACCOUNTING POLICY
Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, are classified 
as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s commencement at the lower of the fair value of the leased 
property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, 
are included in other current and non-current payables. Finance lease payments are allocated between interest expense and 
reduction of lease liability over the term of the lease. The interest expense is determined by applying the interest rate implicit in 
the lease to the outstanding lease liability at the beginning of each lease payment period. Finance leased assets are depreciated 
on a straight line basis over the shorter of the asset’s estimated useful life and the lease term.
Where the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor, leased assets are classified as operating leases and are not 
capitalised. Rental payments are charged to the Consolidated Income Statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

(1)  Shares attached to performance rights granted to employees are not considered to be potential ordinary shares, as including such securities in the calculation 
would result in a decreased loss per share therefore being anti-dilutive. Hence the diluted earnings per share is equal to the basic earnings per share.
ACCOUNTING POLICY
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average 
number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial period. Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the 
determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs 
associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would 
have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

ACCOUNTING POLICY 
Trade and related party receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less 
any provision for doubtful debts. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement no more than 30 days from the date of 
recognition. Collectability of trade and related party receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to 
be uncollectable are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when there is objective evidence that the Group will 
not be able to collect all amounts due. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement 
within other expenses. When a receivable for which an impairment allowance has been recognised becomes uncollectable in a 
subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are 
credited against other expenses in the Consolidated Income Statement.

ACCOUNTING POLICY
All property, plant and equipment is recorded at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is 
directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. 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.
Property, plant and equipment, excluding freehold land, is depreciated at rates based upon the expected useful economic life 
as follows:
Buildings
Leasehold improvements
Plant and equipment
Method
Straight line
Average life
20 years
Straight line
Primary term of lease
Straight line
8 years
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the unexpired period of the primary lease or the estimated life of the 
improvement, whichever is the shorter. 
The asset’s residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
The Group reviews annually whether the triggers indicating a risk of impairment exist. The recoverable amounts of cash 
generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates  
(refer Note F5). 
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.
The gain or loss on disposal of all non-current assets is determined as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset 
at the time of disposal and the proceeds on disposal, and is included in the Consolidated Income Statement of the Group in the 
reporting period of disposal.
IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS 
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for 
impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets 
are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be 
recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement for the amount by which the asset’s 
carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs 
to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there 
are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units). If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss 
decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the reversal of 
the previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at a cash generating unit level. The recoverable amount of a cash generating unit is 
determined based on value-in-use calculations. Management recognises that there are various reasons that the estimates used 
in the assumptions may vary. For the cash generating units, there are no reasonable and likely changes in assumptions which 
would result in an impairment.  
During the reporting period ended 1 May 2016, the above cash generating units were tested for impairment in accordance with 
AASB 136. No impairment was identified for these intangible assets. During the reporting period ended 1 May 2016 individual 
restaurant assets were also tested for impairment in accordance with AASB 136. In the event that the carrying value of these 
assets was higher than the recoverable amount (measured as the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use) an 
impairment charge was recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement as set out in the table below.

ACCOUNTING POLICY 
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition 
over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable 
assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition. 
Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for 
impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes 
in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is 
carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill 
is allocated to cash generating units for the purpose of 
impairment testing.
The Group determines whether goodwill with indefinite 
useful lives are impaired at least on an annual basis. This 
requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash 
generating units to which the goodwill with indefinite useful 
lives relate.
Deferred franchise rights
Costs associated with franchise licences which provide a 
benefit for more than one reporting period are deferred 
and amortised over the remaining term of the franchise 
licence. Capitalised costs associated with renewal options 
for franchise licences are deferred and amortised over 
the renewal option period. The unamortised balance is 
reviewed each balance date and charged to the Consolidated 
Income Statement to the extent that future benefits are no 
longer probable.
Other intangibles – Sizzler brand
Sizzler brand intangibles which are owned and registered by 
the Group are considered to have a useful life of 20 years and 
are amortised accordingly. These intangibles will be tested 
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances 
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. 
Sizzler brand intangibles are carried at amortised cost less 
impairment losses.
F5/ Intangible assets (continued)
KEY ASSUMPTIONS USED FOR VALUE-IN-USE 
CALCULATIONS
KFC Restaurants
The cash flows by restaurant have been estimated after 
applying growth rates from the commencement of 2017 
through to the end of the 2021 reporting period which 
average 2.9%. The year one projections have been aligned to 
the division’s specific cash flows reflected in the 2017 budget.
Management believe that these growth percentages are 
reasonable considering the growth that has been seen in 
this operating segment during the 2016 and prior reporting 
periods. A pre-tax discount rate of 12.0% has been applied 
to the cash flows. An indefinite terminal cash flow calculation 
has been applied for cash flows beyond 2021, using that 
year’s cash flow as a base. The growth rate of 2.75% has 
been used in determining the terminal value, which does not 
exceed the long term average growth rate for the industry 
segment in which the restaurants operate.
Sizzler Australia Restaurants
The cash flows for the Sizzler Australia restaurants from the 
beginning of 2018 to the end of the 2021 reporting period 
have been estimated at an average decline of 7.7% reflecting 
the recent trends experienced in this operating segment 
together with initiatives intended to improve operating 
margins. The projection for 2017 has been aligned to the 
division’s specific cash flows reflected in the budget prepared 
in May 2016.
A pre-tax discount rate of 20.0% (3 May 2015: 20.0%) has 
been applied to the cash flows. An indefinite terminal cash 
flow calculation has been applied for cash flows beyond 
2021, using that year’s cash flow as a base. No growth has 
been used in determining the terminal value, which is less 
than the long term average growth rate for the industry.
Sizzler Asia
The cash flows for the Sizzler Asia cash generating unit 
have been estimated after applying growth rates from 
the commencement of 2017 through to the end of the 
2021 reporting period which average 3.5%. The year one 
projections have been aligned to the cash flows reflected in 
the 2017 budget.
Management believe that these growth percentages are 
reasonable considering the growth that has been seen in 
this cash generating unit during the 2016 and prior reporting 
periods. A pre-tax discount rate of 14.4% has been applied 
to the cash flows. An indefinite terminal cash flow calculation 
has been applied for cash flows beyond 2021, using that 
year’s cash flow as a base. The growth rate of 3.5% has been 
used in determining the terminal rate which does not exceed 
the long term average growth rate for the casual dining 
industry segment.

ACCOUNTING POLICY 
Employee entitlements
Provision has been made in the accounts for benefits accruing to employees up to balance date, such as annual leave, long 
service leave and incentives. Annual leave and incentive provisions that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after 
the end of the reporting period are measured at their nominal amounts using the remuneration rates expected to apply at the 
time of settlement and are classified in provisions. 
Long service leave, annual leave and incentive provisions that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the 
end of the reporting period are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services 
provided by employees up to reporting date. 
Long service leave provisions relating to employees who have not yet completed the required period of service are classified as 
non-current. All other employee provisions are classified as a current liability.
All on-costs, including superannuation, payroll tax and workers’ compensation premiums are included in the determination 
of provisions.
Make good provision 
Provisions for legal claims and make good obligations are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive 
obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the 
amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
The Group is required to restore the leased premises of certain retail stores to their original condition upon exit. However, as 
leases are traditionally renewed, the Group only recognises a provision for those restaurants where make good costs will result 
in a probable outflow of funds. An annual review of leased sites is conducted to determine the present value of the estimated 
expenditure required to remove any leasehold improvements and decommission the restaurant.

NATURE AND PURPOSE OF RESERVES
Hedging reserve – cash flow hedges
The hedging reserve is used to record gains or losses on a hedging instrument in a cash flow hedge that are recognised in 
other comprehensive income. Amounts are recognised in profit and loss when the associated hedged transaction affects profit 
and loss.
Share-based payments reserve – performance rights
The share-based payments reserve is used to recognise the issuance date fair value of performance rights issued to employees 
under the Long Term Incentive Plan but not yet vested.
Foreign currency translation reserve
Exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate 
reserve within equity.

ACCOUNTING POLICY 
Income tax 
The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the 
national income tax rate, adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between 
the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the  
assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted in the 
respective jurisdiction. 
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future 
taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases 
of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary 
differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and 
when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where the entity 
has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends to settle on a net basis.
Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.
Tax consolidation
The Company, as the head entity in the tax consolidated group and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities continue 
to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax 
consolidated group continues to be a stand-alone taxpayer in its own right.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the Company also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) 
and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the 
tax consolidated group. Assets or liabilities arising under the tax funding agreement with the tax consolidated entities are 
recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  
 
 
 
 
 
 
The entities in the tax consolidated group entered into a tax sharing agreement which, in the opinion of the Directors, limits the 
joint and several liability of the wholly-owned entities within the Tax Consolidated Group in the case of a default by the Company.
The entities in the tax consolidated group have also entered into a Tax Funding Agreement under which the wholly-owned 
entities of that group fully compensate the Company for any current tax payable assumed and are compensated by the 
Company for any current tax receivable and deferred tax assets relating to unused tax losses or unused tax credits that are 
transferred to the Company under the tax consolidation legislation. The funding amounts are determined by reference to the 
amounts recognised in the wholly-owned entities’ financial statements.

It is the Group’s policy to employ PricewaterhouseCoopers on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where PricewaterhouseCoopers’ expertise 
and experience with the Group are important. These assignments are principally tax advice, due diligence reporting on acquisitions and capital raisings, or where 
PricewaterhouseCoopers is awarded assignments on a competitive basis. It is the Company’s policy to seek competitive tenders for all major consulting projects.
F11/ Contingencies
The parent entity and certain controlled entities indicated in Note G1 have entered into Deeds of Cross Guarantee under which 
the parent entity has guaranteed any deficiencies of funds on winding up of the controlled entities which are party to the deeds. 
At the date of this statement there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to meet any obligations or 
liabilities to which it is, or may become, subject by virtue of the deeds.
As described in Note B2, CFG Finance Pty. Limited (a subsidiary) and several other related entities entered into Syndicated and 
Working Capital credit facilities. As a consequence of this, the Company and its subsidiaries (other than subsidiaries outside the 
Closed Group) became registered guarantors of all the obligations in respect of these loan facilities.

reverse acquisition in the 2012 reporting period.
GUARANTEES ENTERED INTO BY THE PARENT ENTITY
The parent entity has provided unsecured financial guarantees in respect of bank loan facilities amounting to $200m as stated 
in Note B2. In addition, there are cross guarantees given by the parent entity as described in Note G1. All controlled entities 
will together be capable of meeting their obligations as and when they fall due by virtue to the Deed of Cross Guarantee 
dated 23 February 2012. No liability was recognised by the parent entity in relation to these guarantees, as their fair value is 
considered immaterial.
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES OF THE PARENT ENTITY
Except as described above in relation to guarantees, the parent entity did not have any contingent liabilities as at 1 May 2016.

H/ BASIS OF PREPARATION AND OTHER ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
H1/ Basis of preparation
H2/ Other accounting policies
H1/ Basis of preparation 
COMPLIANCE
These financial statements have been prepared as a general 
purpose financial report in accordance with Australian 
Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements 
of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Urgent Issues 
Group Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001.
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group comply 
with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as 
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
MEASUREMENT
Collins Foods Limited is a for profit entity for the purpose of 
preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements. The financial 
statements have also been prepared under the historical cost 
convention, as modified by the revaluation of financial assets 
and liabilities (including derivative instruments).
GOING CONCERN
The financial report has been prepared on a going concern 
basis. The Directors are of the opinion that the Group will 
be able to continue to operate as a going concern having 
regard to available non-current debt facilities and the Group’s 
internally generated cash resources.
CONSOLIDATION
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the financial 
statements of the parent entity, Collins Foods Limited (the 
Company) and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the 
‘Group) (see Note G1 on subsidiaries). All transactions and 
balances between companies in the Group are eliminated 
on consolidation. Subsidiaries are all those entities over 
which the Company has the power to govern the financial 
and operating results and policies and often accompanies a 
shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The 
results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year 
are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive 
income from the effective date of acquisition or up to 
the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Consistent 
accounting policies are employed in the preparation and 
presentation of the consolidated financial statements. 
REPORTING PERIOD
The Group utilises a fifty-two, fifty-three week reporting 
period ending on the Sunday nearest to 30 April. The 2016 
reporting period comprised the fifty-two weeks which ended 
on 1 May 2016 (2015 was a fifty-three week reporting period 
which ended on 3 May 2015).
FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Items included in the financial statements of each of the 
Group entities are measured using the currency of the 
primary economic environment in which the entity operates 
(the functional currency). The Consolidated Financial 
Statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the 
functional and presentation currency of the Company.
Transactions in foreign currencies are converted at the 
exchange rates in effect at the dates of each transaction. 
Amounts payable to or by the Group in foreign currencies 
have been translated into Australian currency at the exchange 
rates ruling on balance date. Gains and losses arising from 
fluctuations in exchange rates on monetary assets and 
liabilities are included in the Consolidated Income Statement 
in the period in which the exchange rates change, except 
when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges.
The foreign currency results and financial position of foreign 
operations are translated into Australian dollars as follows:
 ´ assets and liabilities at the exchange rate at the end of 
the reporting period;
 ´ income and expenses at the average exchange rates for 
the reporting period; with
 ´ all resulting exchange differences recognised in other 
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the 
translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and 
of borrowings and other financial instruments designated 
as hedges of such investments, are recognised in other 
comprehensive income. 
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition 
of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of 
the foreign operation and translated at the exchange rate at 
the end of the reporting period.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, 
ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS 
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are 
based on historical experience and other factors, including 
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact 
on the Group and that are believed to be reasonable under 
the circumstances.
The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are 
often determined based on estimates and assumptions 
of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that 
have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment 
to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities 
within the next annual reporting period are included in the 
following notes:
 ´ Note F4 Property, plant and equipment
 ´ Note F5 Non-Current Assets – Intangible Assets

ROUNDING OF AMOUNTS
The Company is of a kind referred to in Class Order 
98/100, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments 
Commission, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in 
the financial report. Amounts in the financial report have 
been rounded off in accordance with that Class Order 
to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the 
nearest dollar.
NEW AND AMENDED STANDARDS ADOPTED BY 
THE GROUP
The Group applied the following standards and amendments 
for the first time for the annual reporting period commencing 
4 May 2015:
 ´ AASB 2011-4: Amendments to Australian  
Accounting Standards to Remove Individual  
Key Management Personnel Disclosure  
Requirements; and 
 ´ AASB 2013-3: Limited amendment of  
impairment disclosures. 
STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have 
been published that are not mandatory for 1 May 2016 
reporting periods. Unless stated otherwise below, the Group 
is currently in the process of assessing the impact of these 
standards and amendments and is yet to decide whether to 
early adopt any of the new and amended standards.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments (effective from  
1 January 2018)
The new standard simplifies the model for classifying and 
recognising financial instruments and aligns hedge accounting 
more closely with common risk management practices. 
Changes in own credit risk in respect of liabilities designated 
at fair value through profit or loss shall now be presented 
within OCI; this change can be adopted early without 
adopting AASB 9. This new standard will be effective from  
1 January 2018.
AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with customers 
(effective from 1 January 2018)
The AASB has issued a new standard for the recognition of 
revenue. This will replace AASB 118, which covers contracts 
for goods and services, and AASB 111, which covers 
construction contracts. 
The new standard is based on the principle that revenue is 
recognised when control of a good or service transfers to 
a customer – so the notion of control replaces the existing 
notion of risks and rewards. 
AASB 16 Leases (effective from 1 January 2019)
AASB 16 will primarily affect the accounting by lessees 
and will result in the recognition of almost all leases on the 
balance sheet. The standard removes the current distinction 
between operating and financing leases and requires 
recognition of an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a 
financial liability to pay rentals for almost all lease contracts.
AASB 2016-2 IASB issues narrow scope amendments  
to IAS 7 Statement of cash flows (effective from  
1 January 2017)
The amendment to AASB 107 introduces additional 
disclosures that will enable users of financial statements to 
evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities. 
The amendment requires disclosure of changes arising from:
 ´ cash flows, such as drawdowns and repayments of 
borrowings; and 
 ´ non-cash changes, such as acquisitions, disposals and 
unrealised exchange differences.
H2/ Other Accounting policies
GOODS AND SERVICES TAX 
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the 
amount of goods and services tax (GST) except:
 ´ where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable 
from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of 
the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item 
of expense; or
 ´ for receivables and payables which are recognised 
inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST payable to the taxation authority is 
included as part of trade and other payables (see Note F6).
Cash flows are included in the Consolidated Statement of 
Cash Flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash 
flows arising from investing and financing activities which 
is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is 
classified as operating cash flows.
COST OF SALES 
For the purposes of the Consolidated Income Statement, 
cost of sales includes the carrying amount of inventories sold 
during the reporting period and an estimated allocation of 
labour incurred in relation to preparing those inventories 
for sale.
OCCUPANCY EXPENSES 
Occupancy expenses include: fixed rentals, contingent rentals, 
land tax, outgoings and depreciation relating to buildings and 
leasehold improvements.
RESTAURANT RELATED EXPENSES 
Restaurant related expenses include: utilities, maintenance, 
labour and on-costs (except those allocated to cost of sales), 
cleaning costs, depreciation of plant and equipment (owned 
and leased) located in restaurants and amortisation of KFC 
franchise rights.
INVENTORIES 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable 
value. Cost is assigned on a first-in first-out basis and includes 
expenditure incurred in acquiring the stock and bringing it to 
the existing condition and location.

I2/ Acquisition of Snag Stand
On 15 June 2016, the Group acquired the remaining 50% 
share of Snag Holdings Pty Ltd for a nominal sum to take 
full ownership.
I/ SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
I1/ Acquisition of 13 KFC restaurants
I2/ Acquisition of Snag Stand 
I1/ Acquisition of 13 KFC restaurants
On 19 May 2016 the Group entered into a binding agreement 
to acquire 13 KFC restaurants located around the New South 
Wales and Victorian border. These restaurants are being 
purchased from Chrikim Pty Ltd, Skeeter Wright Pty Ltd and 
Geoff Wright Corp Pty Ltd. 
The Group will pay $25.46m for the acquisition plus 
acquisition costs. The acquisition on a trailing basis is currently 
delivering $4.3m EBITDA (pre-synergies). The acquisition 
price will be adjusted up for inventory and adjusted down for 
employee liabilities assumed as part of the acquisition. The 
acquisition further strengthens the growth platform of the 
Group as it provides a footprint from which to grow in New 
South Wales and Victoria. 
The acquisition consideration will comprise $10m in shares 
of the Company (to be issued at a share price of $4.27 per 
share) and the remainder funded from existing available funds. 
Approval from the Franchisor has been received subject to 
customary conditions. Completion is subject to a number of 
standard conditions precedent and is expected to be achieved 
in mid-July 2016.

Independent Auditor’s Report
Independent auditor’s report to the members of Collins Foods
Limited
Report on the financial report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Collins Foods Limited (the company), which
comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at 1 May 2016, the consolidated income statement and
consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and
consolidated statement of cash flows for the period 4 May 2015 to 1 May 2016, a summary of
significant accounting policies, other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration for Collins Foods
Limited (the consolidated entity). The consolidated entity comprises the company and the entities it
controlled at period’s end or from time to time during the financial period.
Directors' responsibility for the financial report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the
financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note H1, the
directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial
Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted
our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply
with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error.
In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the consolidated
entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well
as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations
Act 2001.
