Future growth is also underpinned by continued leading performance and client retention during the year. The entry into the North American market is an exciting new phase for the Group. CTM is well placed to drive improved returns from the North American businesses through the implementation of its key business processes and supporting platform. CTM’s focus remains upon listening to its clients and staff, to ensure its service offering is both innovative and cost effective, and enabling staff to offer the personalised service and expertise demanded by clients. I look forward to working with staff, clients, key suppliers and the Board in pursuing the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead and to continue to deliver outstanding results for CTM’s clients and shareholders. Jamie Pherous Managing Director Corporate Travel Management Limited Financial position CTM is in a sound financial position, with total assets of $121.1m at 30 June 2013, an increase of $37.5m or 44.8 percent from 30 June 2012. The continued generation of strong cash flows contributed to the Company’s sound financial position, with net cash flows from operating activities of $16.0m over the year to 30 June 2013. In March 2013, the Company raised a further $9.8m through the equity market, to assist with the funding the acquisition of the North American based agency, Travelcorp LLC. Both acquisitions support CTM’s proven competency in integrating people into CTM’s culture, and empowering people to operate more effectively for their clients through a scalable and efficient business model and operating platform. The business has also continued to invest in its service offering. During the year, new products were introduced, including CTM Mobile, Wotif inventory and Business Intelligence, as well as enhanced functionalities in CTM’s core operating systems, which are integral to the continued success of the business. Total equity of $73.0m at 30 June 2013 compares with $53.0m at 30 June 2012, an increase of $20.0m or 37.7 percent over the year. Employees A skilled and motivated workforce is integral to CTM’s success. CTM’s culture is founded upon the notion of listening to CTM’s staff in order to provide a workplace that empowers people, through good processes and excellent training, to grow, evolve and deliver the superior service that CTM’s clients demand. CTM continues to invest in its people, through its in-house training programs, selective recruitment and a commitment to provide the resourcing to support its people in delivering service excellence to clients. Over the past year, the total number of full time employees increased by 30% to 616, reflecting the North American acquisitions and CTM’s positioning to underwrite growth with the most skilled talent. Staff ownership of CTM equity is an important pillar in aligning the objectives of CTM with the personal aspirations of our people. At 30 June 2013, over 38% of all staff eligible to participate in the CTM Employee Share Scheme were CTM shareholders. The Board and the senior management team appreciate the contribution that CTM’s staff have made to the Company’s strong performance in 2012/13. Their professionalism and commitment have been fundamental to the development of CTM’s reputation as a highly valued business partner for its clients. Business drivers The success of CTM’s business continues to be based on the key drivers: ■ Strong client wins across the Group. Our continued investment in technology and business tools strengthens CTM’s competitive advantage. ■ Continued high levels of client retention, underpinned by 98% client satisfaction and high staff engagement. ■ Improving internal productivity and developing CTM’s people, so that they are most effective in supporting CTM’s clients. In addition, CTM has complemented its existing business platform with two strategic international acquisitions during the past year: ■ In July 2012, CTM acquired North American based agency, R&A Travel Inc, based in Denver Colorado, opening an important new market to CTM and providing a unique opportunity to cross-sell between the two markets. ■ In May 2013, CTM made its second acquisition in North America, acquiring Travelcorp LLC, with operations in Texas and Louisiana, giving CTM greater scale in the North American market, enhancing buying power, and leveraging CTM’s support services and client facing solutions. 6 7 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013THE CTM CUSTOMER JOURNEY At CTM each customer journey is unique.

Challenges: One of the key challenges was a heavy reliance on offline consultant- based travel booking processes spread across 80 travel arrangers nationally. Also in place was a preferred airline agreement which did not maximise available discounts. Solutions: that resulted in: In partnership with Arup, CTM conducted an analysis of Arup’s existing travel practices, including processes, travel trends and supplier relationships The introduction of a user-friendly online booking tool to drive bookings online, thus increasing booking efficiencies, policy compliance and reporting capabilities. And the renegotiation of existing airline supplier agreements for improved discounts and benefits. Results: As a result of these changes Arup saved $180k in the first year of implementation through moving to an online booking tool. Savings of around $40k per year were also made through the renegotiation of a preferred airline supplier agreement.

And it’s not just its clients who have given CTM the tick of approval. In 2013, CTM received three awards in the Australian Federation of Travel Agents’ National Travel Industry Awards (AFTA NTIA), taking out the Best National Travel Management Company Award while its events division was crowned the Best Business Events Travel Agency and Brisbane operations manager Shelley Leven was awarded as the Best Travel Agency Manager (Corporate).

Enhanced supplier negotiations A dedicated Supplier Relations department proactively conducts ongoing negotiations with the industry’s most respected travel suppliers, ensuring clients benefit from continuous improvements in value to their travel program, contrary to other TMCs who rely solely on globally-negotiated consortia rates.

Challenges: The size and diversity of the Wesfarmers group of businesses posed a number of logistical and operational challenges which would need to be overcome in order to achieve a smooth and effective transition to CTM. These included: ■ The terms of transition (including timeframe) being stipulated by contractual arrangements with the incumbent TMC ■ The scale and diversity of the business being split across 11 divisions, each operating on different systems and with different travel policies ■ The client’s geographical spread across five states, requiring regionalised training programs Solution: CTM appointed a dedicated project team with expertise in large-scale implementation projects to manage the process from start to finish. These expert resources enabled a smooth and efficient transition by: 1) Establishing an implementation timeframe and setting periodic milestones throughout the three month transition period to maintain momentum and recognise attainable goals 2) Holding implementation meetings with each division to establish their unique business needs, operational goals and objectives, and establishing a Communication Plan for all stakeholders 3) Conducting a four week national training ‘road show’, including face-to-face training with all 300 travel bookers to ensure maximum knowledge and confidence in CTM systems and processes while providing an opportunity for staff engagement and team building Results 1. Full implementation completed within 3 months 2. Travel policies tailored to business needs - CTM successfully established and implemented a range of tailored travel policies across the group’s multi-faceted business, utilising CTM systems and best practice procedures 3. 300 travel bookers fully trained - All travel bookers trained within three months and confidently utilising CTM systems and procedures “ Moving TMCs posed a significant shift in data and travel processes. We are very happy with our decision to move to Corporate Travel Management (CTM). CTM has been proactive and engaging throughout the entire implementation. Their attention to detail and ability to go above and beyond has made the transition process seamless. We look ” forward to a long and prosperous relationship. Steve Turner, Group Procurement, Perth - Wesfarmers 16 17 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013Specialising in the development of a new breed of customer-facing technologies designed and built by CTM around customer research initiatives, CTM SMART Technology has already begun to take pioneering strides ahead for the benefit of all CTM clients. Born out of the belief that travel management companies need to provide more customised technology solutions which are focused not only on core functionality but also on a client-friendly interface, the work of CTM SMART Technology will focus on not only the creation of new tools but also client-side web development to offer customised and intuitive experiences for clients. From improvements around global risk communications, duty of care requirements and global travel mapping to enhanced pre-trip approval systems and next generation client portals, CTM SMART Technology is set to deliver a wide array of new intellectual property to enrich client travel programs both locally and globally across the next 12 months. Already - by placing a priority on timely and cost- effective processes and technologies which drive profitability, efficiencies and overall client satisfaction - this new approach to technology has allowed CTM to create a technology environment for clients which is scalable while remaining localised and nimble. In today’s fast paced and cost-critical development environment, a careful mixture of elements is needed to build and develop quality travel technology. Not many travel management companies nor organisations in general get this right – CTM believes that with the introduction of CTM SMART Technology it has found the correct formula and looks forward to releasing new developments to clients across the coming 12 months. CTM SMART TECHNOLOGY In June of 2013, CTM took its commitment to innovation a step further with the establishment of a dedicated in-house technology solutions architecture named ‘CTM SMART Technology.’ 18 19 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013 E M E R G E N C Y E VA C U AT I O N At the announcement of an escalating Yellow Alert cyclone warning off the coast of Western Australia, CTM were administered to safely evacuate 550+ mining personnel. Evacuation needed to be completed within a limited timeframe along with negotiating sufficient evacuation transportation, including scheduled and charter flights, and emergency accommodation for displaced personnel. Road Blocks: As with any natural disaster, cyclone activity occurs with minimal warning and can escalate or change course at a moment’s notice. The remote location of many Australian mining sites also presents limitations to land and air transport services, further contributing to the challenges of an emergency evacuation. In managing the relocation of 550+ CITIC Pacific Mining personnel, CTM was faced the following challenges: 1. The constantly evolving nature of the situation (uncontrollable weather patterns) 2. Airline capacity limitations on regional routes 3. Limited availability of regional transportation services from site to airport (100km away) 4. The event took place over a public holiday weekend. This required CTM to engage emergency resources to facilitate the required travel arrangements Solutions: The core elements of CTM’s solution included: 1. Continuous weather system tracking via the Bureau of Meteorology to ensure that all required action was pre-empted 2. Activation of CTM’s Local Emergency Committee and assembly of a dedicated consulting team, consisting of two managers and two consultants, to work throughout the public holiday 3. Utilisation of CTM’s superior supplier relationships in diverting a scheduled Qantas flight from Paraburdoo to Karratha, enabling the evacuation of 87 additional personnel when all other airline capacity had been exhausted 4. Post-event meeting and de-brief between CTM and CITIC Pacific Mining Results: 1. Successful evacuation of 550+ remote location personnel Through CTM’s successful negotiations with transportation providers, including the rerouting of a scheduled Qantas flight via Paraburdoo, CTM achieved the successful evacuation of all required personnel plus emergency accommodation within 24 hours. “ Our company recently had the huge task of reducing the number of personnel at our mine sites twice in four weeks due to Cyclones Bianca and Carlos. On both occasions we contacted CTM for assistance with minimal notice, requiring a large number of personnel to be evacuated to Perth and eastern States ports. CTM provided a dedicated consulting team to manage the process, ensuring we met our tight deadlines. CTM always goes above and beyond to meet our travel needs and they have proven that they will go one step further when we need emergency assistance. Our team can always rely on them, and they always provide fantastic service. ” Deirdre Wilcox, Travel Supervisor, CITIC Pacific. 20 21 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013 S E N I O R L E A D E R S H I P T E A M Jamie Pherous Managing Director Jamie Pherous, Managing Director, founded Corporate Travel Management in 1994.

DIVIDENDS PAID AND PROPOSED IN THE YEAR PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES The principal activities of the Group during the year consisted of managing the purchase and delivery of travel services for its clients. There were no significant changes in the nature of the activities of the Group during the year. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW Review of operations The Group continued to engage in its principal activity, being the provision of travel services, the results of which are disclosed in the following statements. During the year, the Company started on an exciting new era with its entry into the North America market. Two acquisitions were made during the year, being R&A Travel on 2 July 2012 and TravelCorp LLC on 1 May 2013. During the year, the Company has also focused on productivity initiatives and delivering innovative products to the market, including CTM’s mobile applications and access to the Wotif inventory. This continued investment secures an operating platform that CTM is confident will support future growth in the business. Operating results for the year The net profit after tax of the Group for the financial period, after providing for income tax, amounted to $12,394,000 (2012: $11,798,000). The result was underpinned by a 29.7% increase in Total Transaction Value (TTV) to $883.8m (unaudited). The new operations in North America contributed $165.3m (unaudited) of TTV, whilst the Australian operation grew to $718.5m (unaudited), a 5.4% increase. The Australian operation’s TTV was impacted by declining average ticket prices and tough economic conditions. Interim for the year • On ordinary shares Dividend provided but not paid at 30 June 2012 • On ordinary shares Per share $’000 4 cents 2,999 6 cents 4,498 Earnings Before Interest Tax Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) (adjusted for acquisition costs “adjusted EBITDA”) grew by 19.9% to $21.0m. In isolation, the Australian operation increased adjusted EBITDA by 10.3% to $19.3m. The EBITDA margin in the business improved largely as a result of productivity initiatives. 28 29 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013Total Transaction Value (“TTV”) (unaudited) TTV represents the amount at which travel products and services have been transacted across the Group’s operations whilst acting as agents for airlines and other service providers, along with other revenue streams. TTV does not represent revenue in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and is not subject to audit. TTV is stated net of GST. TTV is utilised by management as a key travel industry metric. 2013 $’000 2012 $’000 Total Transaction Value net of GST (TTV) (unaudited) 883,803 681,300 Client retention has been successful during the year and the Group has had a record year of new business sales, including some significant new clients in North America. A vast proportion of CTM’s cost base is employee costs, which highlights the importance of productivity initiatives. During the year, there has been an increase in productivity by driving revenue per FTE, but not at the demise of service. In fact, service levels have risen as automation has replaced manual processes, providing CTM’s consultants with the time to operate more effectively and for the benefit of clients. The two acquisitions in North America allow the Group to move towards a new phase, creating the opportunity to cross sell into the Australian client base and become a viable player in the global travel market. Financial Position CTM continues to maintain a strong financial position, with net current assets of $10.6m and total equity of $73.0m. At balance date, the Group has interest bearing debt of $3.3m and has continued to generate strong operating cashflows. The Group intends to continue its growth globally, with aspirations to be in every major region (Asia, Europe, North America and Australia/New Zealand). The organic growth will also be underpinned by continued investment in new client facing technology. The operating cashflow has largely funded the continued growth of the business, with $3.3m debt at balance date despite acquisition payments of $15.9m and capital expenditure of $3.5m during the year. The funding was also complemented with an equity capital raising of $9.8m in March 2013. The Company continues to pay dividends at its stated divided policy level, with a final dividend declared at 6.5 cents per share (full year 10.5 cents). Business strategies and prospects In the next twelve months, the integration of the two acquired businesses in North America will be a focus, to ensure maximum output from the acquisitions. In the Australian operation CTM expects to grow through enhanced client service and experience, enhanced by CTM’s technology development programme. Material business risks The Group is subject to both specific risks to its business activities and risks of a general nature. The Group continues to focus on its key drivers, being: These risks include: ■ Retaining current clients. ■ Winning new clients. ■ Improving productivity. In the 2013 year, the Group has executed well on these key business drivers, notwithstanding the tough economic conditions in the Australian market. ■ Economic conditions: Economic downturn may have an adverse impact on the Group’s operating performance. ■ Information technology: The Group relies heavily on outsourced technology platforms. Whilst all systems are licensed, any disruption to supply or performance of systems may have a long term impact on client and supplier satisfaction. ■ Competition: The Group operates in a competitive market, and current competitors or new competitors may become more effective. ■ Key personnel: The Group is reliant on talent and experience to run its business. The Group’s ability to retain and attract key people is important to its continued success. ■ Employee costs: Employee costs represent a significant component of the Group’s total cost base. Legislative changes in relation to employee costs may have an adverse impact on the Group’s cash flow and profitability. LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS There were no likely developments in the operations of the Group, from time to time, that have not been finalised at the date of this report. ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION AND PERFORMANCE The Group has determined that no particular or significant environmental regulations apply to its operations.

The role of the Remuneration Committee is to advise on remuneration and issues relevant to remuneration policies and practices, including for senior executives and non-executive Directors. CTM’s Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the role of this Committee. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration Non-executive Directors Fees and payments to non-executive Directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the Directors. Non-executive Directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. The Chair’s fees are determined independently to the fees of non-executive Directors. The Chair is not present at any discussions relating to determination of his own remuneration. Non-executive Directors do not receive performance-based remuneration. Directors’ fees The current base fees were last reviewed with effect from 1 July 2012. Non-executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The maximum approved amount currently stands at $400,000 (2012: $350,000). Retirement allowances for non-executive Directors Superannuation contributions required under the Australian superannuation guarantee legislation are made and are deducted from the Directors’ overall fee entitlements. Executive Remuneration Framework The objective of the Group’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and conforms with market practice for delivery of reward. The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices: ■ Competitiveness and reasonableness; ■ Alignment to the interests of shareholders; ■ Performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation; ■ Transparency; and ■ Capital management. The Group has structured an executive remuneration framework that is considered to be market competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the organisation. The two key elements of the framework are: ■ Alignment to shareholders’ interests, which: ▪ Has economic profit as a core component of plan design; ▪ Focuses on sustained growth in shareholder wealth, consisting of dividends and growth in share price, and delivering an appropriate return on assets, as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value; and ▪ Attracts and retains high calibre executives. ■ Alignment to program participants’ interests,which: ▪ Rewards capability and expertise; ▪ Reflects competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth; ▪ Provides a clear structure for earning rewards; and ▪ Provides recognition for individual and team contributions. The framework provides for a mix of fixed and variable remuneration, and a blend of short and long-term incentives. As executives gain seniority with the Group, the balance of this mix shifts to a higher proportion of ‘at risk’ rewards. The current executive remuneration framework currently has three components: ■ Base remuneration and benefits, including superannuation; ■ Short-term performance incentives; and ■ Long-term incentives through participation in the Share Appreciation Rights Plan The combination of these components comprises an executive’s total remuneration. The Group intends to continue to review incentive plans during the year ending 30 June 2014, to ensure continued alignment with the Company’s financial and strategic objectives. Fixed remuneration and benefits Base remuneration and benefits are structured as a total employment cost package, which may be delivered as a combination of cash and prescribed non-financial benefits at the executives’ reasonable discretion. Executives are offered a competitive base remuneration package that comprises the fixed component of remuneration and rewards. Base remuneration for executives is reviewed annually, to ensure the executive’s remuneration is competitive with the market. An executive’s remuneration is also reviewed on promotion. There is no guaranteed base remuneration increase included in any executives’ contracts. Short-term incentives If the Group achieves a pre-determined profit target set by the Remuneration Committee, a short- term incentive (“STI”) pool is available to executives and other eligible participants. Cash incentives/ bonuses are payable around 30 September each year. Using a profit target ensures variable reward is only available when value has been created for shareholders and when profit is consistent with CTM’s approved business plan. The incentive pool is leveraged for performance above the threshold, to provide an incentive for executive superior performance. Executives have a target STI opportunity depending on the accountabilities of the role and impact on the organisation or business unit performance. The maximum target bonus opportunity in the 2013 year was approximately 20% (2012: 31%) of base fixed remuneration and benefits. Each year, the Remuneration Committee considers the appropriate targets and key performance indicators (“KPI”s), to link the STI plan and the level of payout if targets are met, including setting any maximum payout under the STI plan, and minimum levels of performance to trigger payment of STI. Payments made under the STI plan over the last four years have typically risen and fallen in line with the Group’s financial results. For the year ended 30 June 2013, the key performance indicators (KPIs) linked to STI plans were based on the Group objectives, with the key financial metrics being consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation. The Remuneration Committee is responsible for assessing whether the KPIs are met. The Remuneration Committee also has absolute discretion to adjust short-term incentives downwards in light of unexpected or unintended circumstances. Executives receive benefits, including motor vehicle benefits as part of the fixed remuneration package. The STI target annual payment is reviewed annually. Superannuation Long-term incentives Superannuation contributions are paid in accordance with relevant Government legislation, to employee nominated defined contribution superannuation funds. During the year, the Company has begun the process of introducing long term incentives via a Share Appreciation Rights Plan. 32 33 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013The plan is designed to focus executives on delivering long-term shareholder returns. Under the plan, participants are granted shares only if performance conditions pertaining to the earnings per share growth are met and the employee is still employed at the end of the vesting period. Participation in the plan is at the Board’s discretion and no individual has a contractual right to participate in the plan.

The Board is of the view that our governance structure is enhanced by a committee that focuses on risk. As part of our continuous improvement, the role and function of the Risk Management Committee will be evaluated not later than 12 months after its establishment. PRINCIPLE 1: LAY SOLID FOUNDATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT AND OVERSIGHT Responsibility of the Board The Board is responsible for the corporate governance of the Company and has adopted a Corporate Governance Charter (“Charter”).

Responsibility for the operational conduct of the Company’s business has been delegated to the Managing Director, who reports to the Board regularly. The Board’s broad function is to: a. Chart strategy and set business and financial targets for the Company; e. Generally, to fulfil an effective leadership role in relation to the Company and the Group.

The Board Charter details the Board’s composition and responsibilities. Board composition The Board Charter states that the composition of the Board should be subject to the following principles: a. The Board should comprise at least four Directors with a broad range of experience, qualifications, diversity, expertise, skills and contacts relevant to the Group and its business; b. Has not, within the last three years: i. Been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or another Group member; or ii. Been a Director after ceasing employment in an executive capacity for the Company or another Group member; c. Has not, within the last three years, been a principal of a professional advisor to the Company or another Group member or an employee materially associated with the service provided, except where the advisor might be considered to be independent due to the fact that fees payable by the Company to the advisor’s firm represent an insignificant component of the advisor’s firm overall revenue; d. Is not: b. Half of the Board must be Non-Executive Directors, i. a material supplier or customer of the Company independent from management; and or another Group member; or c. A majority of independent Directors, including ii. an officer of or associated, directly or indirectly, with a material supplier or customer; e.

Has not served on the Board for a period which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the Director’s ability to act in the best interest of the Company.’ A former Chief Executive Office will not qualify as an Independent Director unless there has been at least three years between ceasing such employment and sitting on the Board. The Board must regularly assess whether each Director remains an Independent Director in the light of the interests disclosed by them, and each Director must provide the Board with all relevant information for this purposes. the Chairman, unless, in the circumstances of the Company, it is reasonable for the Director not to be an Independent Director and fully disclosed under the ASX Principles. Independence is determined by having regard to whether the Director is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the Director’s ability to exercise independent judgement. The Board members may be deemed to not be independent based upon the length of their membership on the Board and their associated interests as shareholders and associates of clients. Directors’ independence The Board has adopted the following definition of an Independent Director: ‘An Independent Director is a Director who is not a member of management i.e. a non-executive Director and who: a. Is not a substantial Shareholder of the Company, or an officer of a substantial Shareholder, and is not otherwise associated, directly or indirectly, with a substantial Shareholder of the Company; 42 Board members Induction Details of the members of the Board, their experience, expertise, qualifications, term of office, relationships affecting their independence and their independent status are set out in the Directors’ report under the heading ‘Information on Directors’. At the date of signing the Directors’ report, the Company has two executive Directors and three non-executive Directors. The three non-executive Directors have no relationships adversely affecting their independence and are deemed to be independent under the principles set out, noting that Tony Bellas is currently a Director of a client of the Group as detailed in Note 24 to the financial statements. Arrangements for this client are on similar terms to other clients thus this relationship is not considered to be of a value or significance that adversely affects this Directors’ independence. Term of office Under the Company’s Constitution, at least one third of all Directors, being the longest serving Directors, must retire at each Annual General Meeting. Directors, excluding the Chief Executive Office, if a Director, must also retire if a third Annual General Meeting falls during the period in which they have held office. Retiring Directors are eligible to be re-elected. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) The Chairman must be appointed from within the Board membership, having regard to the requirement for a clear division of responsibility at the head of the Company. The Board must agree a division of responsibilities between the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, which should be set out in a statement of position or authority. The Chairman is responsible for leadership of the Board and for the efficient organisation and conduct of the Board. The Chairman should facilitate the effective contribution by all Directors and promote constructive and respectful relations amongst Directors, and between the Board and the Group’s Senior Executives. The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for implementing Group strategies and policies. The Board’s Charter specifies that these roles are separate and are to be undertaken by separate people. The Chief Executive Officer must not become the Chairman within three years of ceasing to be Chief Executive Officer. The induction provided to new Directors and senior managers enables them to actively participate in the Board’s decision-making processes as soon as possible. It ensures that they have a full understanding of the Company’s financial position, strategies, operations, culture, values and risk management policies. It also explains the respective rights, duties, responsibilities, interaction and roles of the Board and senior executives and the Company’s meeting arrangements. Commitment Board meetings are normally held monthly, and are expected to occur not less than ten times in any year. The number of meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors and of each Board Committee held during the year ended 30 June 2013, and the number of meetings attended by each director is disclosed on page 28. It is the Company’s practice to allow its executive Directors to accept appointments outside the Company with prior written approval of the Board. No appointments of this nature were accepted during the year ended 30 June 2013. The commitments of non-executive Directors are considered by the Nominations Committee prior to the Directors’ appointment to the Board of the Company and are reviewed each year, as part of the annual performance assessment. Prior to appointment or being submitted for re- election, each non-executive Director is required to specifically acknowledge that they have and will continue to have the time available to discharge their responsibilities to the Company. Non-executive Directors The non-executive Directors must meet at least twice each financial year for a private discussion of management issues. Relevant matters arising from these meetings are shared with the full Board. Conflict of interests Where Directors are currently Directors of clients of the Group, as detailed in Note 24 to the financial statements, arrangements for these clients are on 43 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013similar terms to other clients and no matters involving these specific clients were required to be discussed at a Board or Committee level during the current year. In accordance with the Board’s Charter, should a potential conflict be noted, the Director concerned is required to declare the interests in those dealings to the Company and take no part in decisions relating to them or the preceding discussions. In addition, the Director would not receive any papers from the Group pertaining to those dealings. Independent professional advice With the prior approval of the Chairman, which may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, each Director has the right to seek independent legal and other professional advice concerning any aspect of the Company’s operations or undertakings, in order to fulfil their duties and responsibilities as Directors. Any reasonable costs incurred are borne by the Company. Performance assessment The Board undertakes an annual self-assessment of its collective performance, the performance of the Chair and of its Committees. The assessment also considers the adequacy of induction and continuing education, access to information and the support provided by the Company Secretary. The results and any action plans are documented, together with specific performance goals which are agreed for the coming year. An external assessment of the Board’s policies and procedures, and its effectiveness generally must be conducted by independent professional consultants at intervals of three years or less. An external board evaluation was performed in both July 2012 and July 2013. The Chair undertakes an annual assessment of the performance of individual Directors and meets privately with each Director to discuss this assessment. Board Committees The Board has established a number of Committees to assist in the execution of its duties and to allow detailed consideration of complex issues. Current Committees of the Board are the Audit and Risk Management, Nomination and Remuneration Committees. 44 Each Committee must consist of only non-executive Directors, the majority of whom are also Independent Directors. The Chairman of each Committee must be an Independent Director and not Chairman of the Board. Each Committee must consist of no fewer than three members. Each Committee has its own written Charter, setting out its role and responsibilities, composition, structure, membership requirements and the manner in which the Committee is to operate. All of these Charters are reviewed on an annual basis and are available on the Company’s website. All matters determined by Committees are submitted to the full Board as recommendations for Board decisions. Minutes of Committee meetings are tabled at the subsequent Board meeting. Additional requirements for specific reporting by the Committees to the Board are addressed in the Charter of the individual committees. Nomination Committee The purpose of this Committee is to provide advice and make recommendations to the Board about the appointment of new Directors, to ensure that it is comprised of individuals who are best able to discharge the responsibilities of Directors, having regard to the law and the highest standards of governance. The role of the Committee, to the extent delegated by the Board, also extends to making recommendations in relation to the appointment of senior management. Its members are Tony Bellas (Chairman), Stephen Lonie and Greg Moynihan. Details of Director attendance at Nomination Committee meetings are set out in the Directors’ report on page 28. The Committee has responsibility to: a. Review and recommend to the Board the size and composition of the Board; b. Assess and develop a skills matrix, to identify the skills required by the Board, competencies of Board members and the extent to which the required skills, experience, qualification and diversity are represented on the Board; c. Assist the Board to identify suitable candidates for Board membership and re-election; d. Establishing processes for: i. Ensuring the Board complies with the Diversity Policy and that any diversity profile identified by the Board is taken into account in the selection and appointment of candidates; ii. The evaluation of performance and independence of the Board and individual Directors; iii. Identifying, assessing and enhancing the skills set of Directors; highest standards of behaviour and professionalism and the practices necessary to maintain confidence in the Group’s integrity and takes into account legal obligations and reasonable expectations of the Company’s stakeholders. The code of ethics forms part of the Company’s Corporate Governance Charter, which has been formally adopted and can be inspected on the Company’s website. iv. Reviewing and ensuring appropriate induction programs are in place; and The Directors are satisfied that the Group has complied with its policies on ethical standards. v. Reviewing corporate governance issues Share Trading Policy as required; and e. Reporting to the Board on: i. Succession planning for Directors, executives and other senior managers; and ii. The diversity profile of employees. A Share Trading and Continuous Disclosure Policy has been adopted by the Board, to provide guidance to the Directors, identified employees including senior management, and other employees (“staff”) where they are contemplating dealing in securities of the Company or the securities of entities with whom the Group may have dealings. When a new Director is to be appointed, the Committee uses the skills matrix to prepare a short-list of candidates with appropriate skills and experience. A number of channels are used to source candidates, to ensure the Company benefits from a diverse range of individuals in the selection process. Where necessary, advice is sought from independent search consultants. The Committee’s nomination of existing Directors for reappointment is not automatic and is contingent on their past performance, contribution to the Company and the current and future needs of the Board and Company. The Board and the Committee are also aware of the advantages of Board renewal and succession planning. Notices of meetings for the election of Directors comply with the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s best practice recommendations. PRINCIPLE 3: PROMOTE ETHICAL AND RESPONSIBLE DECISION MAKING Code of ethics and values The Company has developed and adopted a detailed code of ethics and values to guide Directors in the performance of their duties. The code reflects the The Code of Conduct for transactions in securities is as follows: a. The Share Trading and Continuous Disclosure Policy incorporates a Code of Conduct for Transactions in Securities (“Transactions Code”). The Transactions Code acknowledges that it is desirable that Directors and senior management hold securities in the Company and is designed to ensure any dealings by Directors and senior management and their associates in the Company’s securities or securities of other entities is fair and transparent. b. The Transactions Code’s purpose is to restrict share trading by Directors and staff to circumstances where it is unlikely that there would be any perception of insider trading in relation to dealings in the Company’s securities or securities of other entities. c. The Transactions Code prohibits share trading by Directors and staff in securities where they are in possession of price sensitive information. The prohibition extends to dealings through related parties, as defined in the Corporations Act, and to encouraging family or friends to so deal. Communication of price sensitive information by a Director or staff member to a person who is reasonably likely to trade in securities is also 45 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013prohibited. A comprehensive definition of ‘price sensitive information’ adopted by the Board is included in the Transactions Code. d. The Transactions Code clearly sets out the permitted trading windows and excepted trading circumstances by Directors and Officers of the Company. At all other times, trading by Directors and officers of the Company is prohibited unless written authority to trade is received and the transaction would not be contrary to law, for speculative gain, use insider information nor be perceived as unfair. Policy, a facet of the role of the Remuneration Committee includes reporting to the Board annually on the proportion of men and women in the Group’s workforce and their relative levels of remunerations. The Board will assess and report annually to Shareholders on the Group’s progress towards achieving its diversity goals. The Diversity Policy is available on the Company’s website. The code requires written approval from the Chairman in advance of any transactions by staff for securities valued over $50,000. In accordance with this policy and ASX Corporate Governance Principles, the Board has established objectives in relation to gender diversity. The position at 30 June 2013 is detailed as follows: The Directors are satisfied that the Group has complied with its policies regarding trading in securities. A copy of the Share Trading Policy is available on the Company’s website. Diversity policy The Company is committed to complying with the diversity recommendations published by ASX and promoting diversity among employees, consultants and senior management, and has adopted a policy in relation to diversity (“Diversity Policy”). The Company defines diversity to include, but not be limited to, gender, age, ethnicity and cultural background. The Diversity Policy adopted by the Board outlines the Company’s commitment to fostering a corporate culture that embraces diversity and provides a process for the Board to determine measurable objectives and procedures to implement and report against to achieve its diversity goals. The Nomination Committee is responsible for implementing the Diversity Policy, setting the Company’s measurable objectives and benchmarks for achieving diversity and reporting to the Board on compliance with the Diversity Policy.

CORPORATE INFORMATION The financial report of Corporate Travel Management Limited and its controlled entities (the “Group”) for the year ended 30 June 2013 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of Directors on 28 August 2013. The Directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. Corporate Travel Management Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Corporate Travel Management Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. Compliance with IFRS The consolidated financial statements of the Group also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000), unless otherwise stated. These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, and financial assets and liabilities, at fair value through profit or loss and certain classes of plant and equipment. (b) Statement of compliance In the current year, the Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period. The adoption of these new and revised Standards and Interpretations did not have any material financial impact on the amounts recognised in the financial statements of the Group. Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the reporting period ending 30 June 2013. The Group will continue to assess the impact of these standards, however, there are currently no new standards which management consider will have a significant impact on the amounts recognised in the financial statements. (c) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Corporate Travel Management Limited and its controlled entities (the “Group”). Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, to obtain benefits from their activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether a Group controls another entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent Company, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-Group transactions have been eliminated in full. 54 55 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value, with changes in fair value recognised in other income or other expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. (e) Segment reporting AASB 8 Operating Segments requires a ‘management approach’, under which segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. Operating segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision makers. The chief operating decision-makers have been identified as a group of key senior managers, which is the steering committee that makes strategic decisions. Goodwill is allocated by management to groups of cash-generating units on a segment level. (f) Critical accounting estimates and judgements 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 entity and that are considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. (i) Critical accounting judgements In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made no judgements, apart from those judgements involving estimations, which have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements. (ii)Critical accounting estimates and assumptions The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed in this report, as follows: Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. (d) Business combinations The purchase method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred is measured as the fair value of the assets acquired, shares issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, and, for acquisitions prior to 1 July 2009, included costs directly attributable to the combination. For acquisitions after 1 July 2009, acquisition-related costs are expensed in the period in which the costs are incurred, rather than being added to the cost of the business combination, as required by revised AASB 3 Business Combinations. Where equity instruments are issued in a business combination, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. With limited exceptions, all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred of the business combination over the net fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred of the acquisition is less than the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary, the difference is recognised as a gain in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired. Where settlement of any part of the cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value, as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. 56 ■ Value of intangible assets relating to acquisitions The Group has allocated portions of the cost of acquisitions to client contracts and relationships intangibles, valued using the multi-period excess earnings method. These calculations require the use of assumptions including future customer retention rates and cash flows. ■ Impairment of goodwill The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired on an annual basis. This assessment requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units to which the goodwill is allocated. Refer to Notes 2(o) and 16 for further details. ■ Impairment of intangible with finite life Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. This assessment requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units to which the intangibles are allocated. Refer to Note 2(o) for further details. ■ Lease make-good The Group estimates its liability to provide for the restoration of leased premises by reference to historical data and by specific estimates on a premise by premise basis. ■ Allowance for doubtful debts The Group determines whether client and trade receivables are collectable on an ongoing basis. This assessment requires estimations of the individual recoverability of each debt and if considered uncollectable, is subject to an impairment provision. Refer to Note 2(l). ■ Override Revenue In addition to commission payments, the Group is eligible for override payments from its suppliers. These overrides are negotiated with individual suppliers and will typically include a combination of guaranteed payments and volume incentives. The volume incentives are recognised at the amount receivable when annual targets are likely to be achieved. The override revenue accrual process is inherently judgemental and is impacted by factors which are not completely under Group’s control. These factors include: ▪ Year-end differences As supplier contract periods do not always correspond to the Group’s financial year, judgements and estimation techniques are required to determine anticipated future flown revenues over the remaining contract year and the associated override rates applicable to these forecast levels. ▪ Timing Where contracts have not been finalised before the start of the contract period, override and commission earnings may have to be estimated until agreement has been reached. ▪ Re-negotiations Periodic re-negotiation of terms and contractual arrangements with suppliers may result in additional volume incentives, rebates or other bonuses being received. These payments may not be specified in existing contracts. (g) Foreign currency translation (i) Functional and presentation currency Items included in each of the Group entities’ financial statements 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 Company’s functional and presentation currency. (ii) Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year- end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities, such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss, are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets, such as equities classified as available-for- sale financial assets, are included in the fair value reserve in other comprehensive income. 57 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013(iii) Foreign operations The results and financial position of all the foreign operations that have different functional currencies different to the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: ■ Assets and liabilities for each Consolidated Statement of Financial Position item presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement; ■ Income and expenses for each profit and loss item in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income are translated at average exchange rates; and ■ All resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity. Exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign operations and of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, a proportionate share of such exchange differences is recognised in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income as part of the gain or loss on sale. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of foreign operations are treated as the foreign operations’ assets and liabilities and translated at the closing rate. (h) Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, allowances, rebates and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria set out in the following paragraphs have been met for each of the Group’s activities. The amount of revenue is not considered to be reliably measurable until all contingencies relating to the sale have been resolved. The Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement. 58 Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows: ■ Sales revenue Sales revenue represents net revenue earned on transactions made through the provision of travel services, and includes any commission payable by suppliers after completion of the transaction. ■ Interest revenue Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. ■ Dividends Revenue is recognised when the Group’s right to receive the payment is established. ■ Other revenue Other revenue is recognised when the right to receive the revenue is established. (i) Finance costs This expense is recognised as interest accrues, using the effective interest method. This method calculates the amortised cost of a financial liability and allocates the interest expense over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability to the net carrying amount of the financial liability. (j) Leases The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a rights to use the asset. Finance leases, which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other short-term and long-term payables. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income. Capitalised leased assets are amortised over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. Operating lease payments, which do not transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are recognised as an expense in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Incentives for entering into operating leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease income from operating leases, where the Group is a lessor, is recognised in income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. (k) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and on hand and short-term deposits, with an original maturity of three months or less, that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Client cash represents amounts from clients held before release to service and product suppliers. For the purpose of the consolidated cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. (l) Trade and other receivables Trade and client receivables, which generally have 7-30 day terms, are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for impairment. Client receivables result from the provision of travel services to clients. Trade receivables result from other activities relating to the provision of travel services, such as commissions payable by suppliers. Collectability of trade and client receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis at an operating unit level. Individual debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified. An impairment provision is recognised when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the receivable. The amount of the impairment loss is the receivable carrying amount compared to the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income within administration expenses. When a trade receivable, for which an impairment allowance had been recognised, becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against administration expenses in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. (m) Income tax and other taxes The income tax expense (or revenue) for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company’s subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions, where appropriate, on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. 59 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013Deferred 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 tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Other taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except: ■ When the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and ■ Receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Cash flows are included in the consolidated cash flow statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority. (n) Plant and equipment Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. All other repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income during the reporting period in which they are incurred. Depreciation is calculated at the following rates: Item Rate Plant and equipment under lease: Motor Vehicles 18.75% - diminishing value Plant and equipment: Leasehold improvements Over life of lease Computer hardware 40.00% - straight line Other plant and equipment 37.50% - diminishing value The assets’ residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted, if appropriate, at each financial year end. Impairment The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Derecognition (p) Intangible assets An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset, calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised. (o) Goodwill Goodwill acquired on a business combination is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the consideration transferred for the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. As at the acquisition date, any goodwill acquired is allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination’s synergies. Acquired from a business combination Intangible assets from a business combination are capitalised at fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, the cost model is applied to the class of intangible assets. Software acquired not as part of a business combination Costs incurred in developing products or systems and costs incurred in acquiring software and licenses that will contribute to future period financial benefits through revenue generation and/or cost reduction are capitalised to software and systems. The useful lives of these intangible assets are assessed to be finite. Where amortisation is charged on assets with finite lives, this expense is taken to the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the expense category ‘depreciation and amortisation’. Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists, and, in the case of indefinite life intangibles, annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. Useful lives are also examined on an annual basis and adjustments, where applicable, are made on a prospective basis. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill relates. A summary of the policies applied to the Group’s intangible assets is as follows: Item Method Client contracts and relationships Based on projected cash flows over estimated useful lives, currently ranging over two - three years Internally generated/ acquired Acquired Intellectual Property 5.00% - straight line Acquired Software 40.00% - straight line Acquired Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. This impairment loss is recorded in administration expenses. Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed, the goodwill associated with the disposed operation is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Disposed goodwill in this circumstance is measured on the basis of the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. 60 61 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013Gains or losses arising from the derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income when the asset is derecognised. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are then written down to their recoverable amount. (q) Impairment of non-financial assets, other than goodwill and intangible assets At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those cash flows from other assets or groups of assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash- generating unit to which the asset belongs. In assessing value in use, the estimated cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. goods and services. These amounts are unsecured and are paid within terms ranging from 7 to 30 days from recognition. Client creditors result from provision of travel services and products to clients. Trade payables result from other activities required to provide those travel services, such as corporate services. (s) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense using the effective interest method. The Group does not currently hold qualifying assets but, if it did, the borrowing costs directly associated with this asset would be capitalised, including any other associated costs directly attributable to the borrowing and temporary investment income earned on the borrowing. Borrowings are removed from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. (r) Trade and other payables Trade and other payables and client creditors are carried at original invoice amount and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these Where the terms of a financial liability are renegotiated and the entity issues equity instruments to a creditor to extinguish all or part of the liability (debt for equity swap), a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss, which is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the fair value of the equity instruments issued. (t) Financial guarantee contracts Financial guarantee contracts are recognised as a financial liability at the time the guarantee is issued. The liability is initially measured at fair value and, subsequently, at the higher of the amount determined in accordance with AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation, where appropriate. The fair value of financial guarantees is determined as the present value of the difference in net cash flows between the contractual payments under the debt instrument and the payments that would be required without the guarantee, or the estimated amount that would be payable to a third party for assuming the obligations. Where guarantees in relation to loans or other payables of subsidiaries or associates are provided for no compensation, the fair values are accounted for as contributions and recognised as part of the cost of the investment. (u) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense. Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. (v) Employee Benefits (i) Short term obligations Liabilities for wages and salaries including non- monetary benefits, expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting period, are recognised in other payables and accruals in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date. Liabilities for annual leave and accumulated sick leave, expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting period, are recognised in the provision for employee benefits in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulated sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable. (ii) Other long term obligation Liabilities for long service leave are recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured at the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by the employees up to the reporting date, using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to the expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures, and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds, with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. (iii) Retirement benefit obligations Contributions to defined contribution funds are recognised as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or reduction in the future payments is available. 62 63 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013Management Limited under the tax consolidation legislation. The funding amounts are determined by reference to the amounts recognised in the wholly-owned entities’ financial statements. The amounts receivable/payable under the tax funding agreement are due upon receipt of the funding advice from the head entity, which is issued as soon as practicable after the end of each financial year. The head entity may also require payment of interim funding amounts, to assist with its obligations to pay tax instalments. 3. SEGMENT REPORTING (a) Description of segments The operating segments are based on the reports reviewed by the group of key senior managers that comprise the steering committee which makes strategic decisions. The group of key senior managers considered to be the ‘Chief Operating Decision Makers’ (“CODM”) include Jamie Pherous (MD), Laura Ruffles (CEO A&NZ) and Steve Fleming (CFO). Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as current amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group. Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to or distribution from wholly-owned tax consolidated entities. The CODM has identified two reportable segments, being Travel Services North America and Travel Services Australia & New Zealand. Performance for these two segments is monitored separately since the identification of the Travel Services North America segment, as a result of the business acquisitions during 2013 (refer Note 22). There are currently no non-reportable segments. (iii) Financial guarantees Where the parent entity has provided financial guarantees in relation to loans and payables of subsidiaries for no compensation, the fair values of these guarantees are accounted for as contributions and recognised as part of the cost of the investment. (iv) Bonus plans The Group recognises a provision for future bonus payments where it is contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation. (v) Termination benefits Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminating the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal, or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after reporting date are discounted to present value. (w) Contributed Equity 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 the proceeds. (x) Dividends Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the financial year but not distributed at balance dates. Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. (y) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) divided by the weighted average number or ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. Diluted earnings per share are calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, divided by the weighted average number or ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element, and adjusted for: ■ Costs of servicing equity (other than dividends); ■ The after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and ■ Other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the conversion into potential ordinary shares. (z) Parent entity financial information The financial information for the parent entity, Corporate Travel Management Limited, disclosed in Note 25, has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as follows: (i) Investments in subsidiaries Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the financial statements of Corporate Travel Management Limited. Dividends received from associates are recognised in the parent entity’s profit or loss, rather than being deducted from the carrying amount of these investments. (ii) Tax consolidation legislation Corporate Travel Management Limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation. The head entity, Corporate Travel Management Limited and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group 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, Corporate Travel Management Limited 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. The entities have also entered into a tax funding agreement under which the wholly-owned entities fully compensate Corporate Travel Management Limited for any current tax payable assumed and are compensated by Corporate Travel Management Limited for any current tax receivable and deferred tax assets relating to unused tax losses or unused tax credits that are transferred to Corporate Travel 64 65 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013(b) Segment information provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers The CODM assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of adjusted EBITDA.

The accounting policy in relation to this tax consolidation is set out in Note 2(m). Corporate Travel Management Limited is the head entity of the tax consolidated group. Members of the Group have entered into a tax sharing agreement in order to enable Corporate Travel Management Limited to allocate income tax expense to the wholly owned subsidiaries on a pro-rata basis. In addition, the agreement provides for the allocation of income tax liabilities amongst the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations. Tax effect accounting by members of the tax consolidated group Members of the tax consolidated group have entered into a tax funding agreement. The tax funding agreement provides for the allocation of current taxes to members of the tax consolidated group in accordance with their accounting profit for the period, while deferred taxes are allocated to members of the tax consolidated group in accordance with the principles of AASB 112 Income Taxes. Allocations under the tax funding agreement are made at the end of each quarter. The allocation of taxes under the tax funding agreement is recognised as an increase/decrease in the subsidiaries’ inter-company accounts with the tax consolidated group head company, Corporate Travel Management Limited. 72 73 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 20139.

The amount of the provision is $2,970,000 (2012: $1,707,000). An allowance for doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that a receivable is impaired. The amount of the allowance has been measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the receivables and the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the relevant debtor. The ageing of these trade and client receivables is as follows: 0-30 days 31-60 days 60+ days Balance at 30 June Movements in provision for doubtful debts were as follows: At 1 July Charge/(release) for the year Amounts written off Movements through acquisitions of entities Balance at 30 June As of 30 June 2013, trade receivables of $6,481,000 (2012: $6,914,000) were past due but not impaired.

For cash-generating units, there are possible changes in key assumptions that could cause the carrying value of the unit to exceed its recoverable amount. The changes required to each of the key assumptions to cause the carrying value of a unit to exceed its recoverable amount are shown as follows in the table below: Key assumptions used in value in use calculations for the years ended 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012 The following key assumptions were applied to the cash flow projections when determining the value in use: ■ Budgeted revenue values – the basis used to determine the value assigned to the budgeted sales volume is the average value achieved in the year immediately before the budgeted year, adjusted for growth and other known circumstances. ■ Budgeted operating expenses – the basis used to determine the value assigned to the budgeted costs is the average value achieved in the year immediately before the budgeted year, adjusted for growth and other known circumstances. ■ Terminal value – calculated based on a multiple of estimated Year 5 Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation.

Fair values Financial facilities The carrying amount of the Group’s current and non-current borrowings approximate their fair value. The fair values have been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows at prevailing market interest rates varying from 3.86%-5.16% (2012: 7.96%-9.51%) depending on the type of borrowing. In August 2012, the Group transitioned to new facilities with the ANZ Bank, including term loans, overdraft, merchant facilities and bank guarantees, which were fully secured by a fixed and floating charge over all existing and future assets and undertakings of the Group.

Capital management (c) Retained earnings The Group maintains a conservative funding structure that allows it to meet its operational and regulatory requirements, while providing sufficient flexibility to fund future strategic opportunities. The Group’s capital structure includes a mix of debt (refer to Note 18), general cash (refer to Note 10) and equity attributable to the parent’s equity holders. When determining dividend returns to shareholders the Board considers a number of factors, including the Group’s anticipated cash requirements to fund its growth and operational plans and current and future economic conditions. The Group is not bound by externally imposed capital requirements. While payments may vary from time to time, according to these anticipated needs, the Board’s current policy is to return between 50% to 60% of net profit after tax to shareholders.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise deposits with banks, overdraft facilities and borrowings. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group’s operations. The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities, such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the Group’s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken. The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are cash flow interest rate risk, liquidity risk, credit risk and foreign exchange risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarised in this note. The Group is not exposed directly to commodity trading risks. Movements in this reserve were as follows: Balance 1 July Net exchange differences on translation of foreign operations Balance 30 June (3) 1,567 1,564 - (3) (3) Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements. 84 85 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013Interest rate risk The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s cash and debt obligations with a floating interest rate and the Group’s policy is to manage its interest exposure described in this report. The level of debt is disclosed in Note 18. At balance date, the Group had the following mix of financial assets and liabilities exposed to Australian variable interest rate risk: These movements in profit are due to higher/lower interest costs from variable rate debt and cash balances. Credit risk The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties and the Group’s policy is that all clients which wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures and subsequent risk limits which are set for each individual client in accordance with the Group’s policies. Financial Assets Cash Financial Liabilities Overdraft Borrowings Net exposure 2013 $’000 2012 $’000 In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis, with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not considered to be significant. 13,535 13,535 - (3,349) (3,349) 10,186 12,210 12,210 - (839) (839) 11,371 With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, the Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties, and, as such, collateral is not requested nor is it the Group’s policy to securitise its trade and other receivables. The Group constantly analyses its interest rate exposure. Within this analysis, consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions, alternative financing and the mix of fixed and variable interest rates. The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the Statement of Financial Position date. At 30 June 2013, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the following table, with all other variables held constant, post tax profit would have been affected as follows: The Group’s cash is held with the following financial institutions: ■ Australia and New Zealand: ANZ Bank – AA credit rating with Moody’s. ■ North America: Capital One Bank – A3 credit rating with Moody’s. Colorado Business Bank – un-rated. Client and Trade receivables are held with un-rated entities. 2013 $’000 Judgements of reasonably possible movements: +2% (200 basis points) - 2% (200 basis points) 143 (143) 2012 $’000 163 (163) Liquidity risk The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans and hire purchase contracts. The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring cash flows and estimating future operational draws on cash reserves. The following table reflects all contractually fixed pay-offs, repayments and interest resulting from recognised financial assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2013. No derivative financial instruments are held and for other obligations, the respective undiscounted cash flows for the respective upcoming fiscal years are presented. Cash flows for financial assets and liabilities without fixed amount or timing are based on the conditions existing at 30 June 2013. The remaining contractual maturities of the Group’s financial liabilities are: 1 year or less 1-5 years Over 5 years Contractual Cashflows Carrying amount 2013 $’000 28,372 9,375 - 37,747 2012 $’000 23,797 266 - 24,063 2013 $’000 28,372 9,091 - 37,463 2012 $’000 23,766 266 - 24,032 Foreign exchange risk Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the Group’s functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period, expressed in Australian dollar, was as follows: 2013 2012 USD $’000 269 NZD $’000 1,086 USD $’000 - NZD $’000 1,019 Trade and other receivables Based on the balances in the previous table, movements in the Australian dollar by 10% against the US and NZ dollars, with all other variables held constant, would be considered immaterial. 86 87 CTM Annual Report 2013CTM Annual Report 2013 22.
