On behalf of the board I am pleased to report on the 2011 ﬁ nancial year. Our proﬁ t from operations was $10m. This excludes the loss on the property disposals and IPO expenses that were identiﬁ ed as costs in the ﬁ nancial year. The inclusion of these resulted in a ﬁ nal proﬁ t before tax of $8.8m. Operating revenues ﬁ nished at $385m for the year, a record number for the company. This was up by 34.4% on the same period last year of $287m. Both proﬁ t and revenue were a record number for the company and a very encouraging result, due to our dedicated staff and management team who performed extremely well. During the year we moved into a new and larger facility at 230 Captain Cook Drive, Kurnell. We sold the land that we had acquired for expansion of our Taren Point facility and also our old facility in Sir Joseph Banks Drive. We recorded a small proﬁ t on the land sale but took a loss on the property transaction. We were able to partially offset that loss with the land gain. With the disposal of the old property assets and our new facility fully operational we expect continued growth to follow in 2012.

Likely developments and expected results In the 2012 ﬁ nancial year, we will focus on reviewing our vendor and supplier mix and adjust accordingly to meet current market conditions.

Executive remuneration and other terms of employment are reviewed annually by the board having regard to performance against goals set at the start of the year and relevant comparative information. Remuneration packages are set at levels that are intended to attract and retain executives capable of managing the company’s operations, achieving the company’s strategic objectives, and increasing shareholder wealth. Executives The executive pay and reward framework includes the following components: - Base pay and beneﬁ ts - Performance-related bonuses - Other remuneration such as superannuation. The combination of these comprises the executive’s remuneration. Base pay Base pay is structured as a total employment cost package which may be delivered as a combination of cash and prescribed non-ﬁ nancial beneﬁ ts at the executive’s discretion. There are no guaranteed base pay increases included in any senior executives’ contracts. Performance-related bonuses Performance-related cash bonus entitlements are linked to the achievement of ﬁ nancial and non-ﬁ nancial objectives which are relevant to meeting the company’s business objectives. A major part of the bonus entitlement is determined by the actual performance against net proﬁ t margin targets. Using a proﬁ t target ensures variable reward is only available when value has been created for shareholders and when proﬁ t is consistent with the business plan. The executives’ cash bonus entitlements are assessed and paid monthly based on the actual performance against the relevant monthly proﬁ t with a reconciliation at the end of the ﬁ nancial year against full-year actual proﬁ t. The chairman and CEO is responsible for assessing whether an individual’s targets have been met Non-executive directors Fees and payments to non-executive directors reﬂ ect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the directors. The board determines remuneration of non-executive directors within the maximum amount approved by the shareholders from time to time. This maximum currently stands at $250,000 per annum in total for salary and fees, to be divided among the non-executive directors in such a proportion and manner as they agree. The Board does not currently have any independent directors. The only current non-executive director is Fiona Brown, who represents a major shareholder.

As at the reporting date, the Board is composed of the following ﬁ ve Directors, including one non-executive Director: Name David Dicker Fiona Brown Mary Stojcevski Chris Price Michael Demetre Position Chairman and Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer Non Executive Director Executive Director Executive Director Executive Director When considering independence, Dicker Data considered the following recommendation made by the ASX Corporate Governance Council: ‘When determining the independent status of a director the board should consider whether the director: 1. is a substantial shareholder of the company or an ofﬁ cer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the company; 2. is employed, or has previously been employed in an executive capacity by the company or another group member, and there has not been a period of at least three years between ceasing such employment and serving on the board; 3. has within the last three years been a principal of a material professional adviser or a material consultant to the company or another group member, or an employee materially associated with the service provided; 4. is a material supplier or customer of the company or other group member, or an ofﬁ cer of or otherwise associated directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer; or 5. has a material contractual relationship with the company or another groupmember other than as a director.’ The Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer is a substantial shareholder of Dicker Data and has been engaged by Dicker Data on a consultancy basis. He is not considered to be independent. Three of the Directors are employed by Dicker Data and are not considered to be independent. Fiona Brown, the non-executive Director, is a substantial shareholder of Dicker Data and is not considered to be independent. As such, there are no independent Directors. The Board considers that the Board’s composition is appropriate to Dicker Data’s size and structure in the context of Dicker Data’s recent history, and the directors’ experience and knowledge of Dicker Data’s assets. Details on the skills, experience and expertise of each director in ofﬁ ce are outlined on page 7 of the Annual Report. Should the Directors determine to expand the Board by the appointment of one or more non-executive Directors, such non-executive Directors will be selected on the basis of their capacity to add value to the business, and to provide independent governance to the operations of Dicker Data. At this stage, the Board has made no offers to any person to join the Board. Expansion of the Board is subject to various contingencies over which the Board has no control, including but not limited to the availability of suitably qualiﬁ ed and experienced individuals with a desire to join the Board. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 17 Corporate Governance Statement The Board will review its performance and composition at least on an annual basis as Dicker Data’s operations evolve, to ensure that it has the appropriate mix of expertise and experience, taking into account the size and nature of Dicker Data’s activities. In time, the Board may consider the appointment of independent directors as it deems appropriate. Directors may obtain independent professional advice at Dicker Data’s expense, subject to prior approval by the Chairman, on matters arising in the course of Dicker Data’s business. Directors also have unrestricted access to any employees of Dicker Data and, subject to the law, access to all Dicker Data records and information held by employees and external advisers. Recommendation 2.2: The chairperson should be an independent director. The current Chairman of the Board is not an independent Director. The Board considers this to be appropriate to Dicker Data’s size, structure and the nature of its activities. The roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer are currently being carried out by the same individual. The Board considers this to be appropriate to Dicker Data’s size, structure and the nature of its activities. Recommendation 2.3: The roles of chairperson and chief executive ofﬁ cer should not be exercised by the same individual. Recommendation 2.4: The board should establish a nomination committee. The Board does not have a nomination committee. The Board considers that its relatively small size and the expertise of its directors allow the full Board to perform a nomination committee function. Accordingly, the Board does not consider it necessary or appropriate in the context to establish a separate committee for this purpose. Recommendations of candidates for new Directors are made to and by the Board. The Board as a whole must make such appointments as it considers the most appropriate for Dicker Data. The Board will review the requirements and processes of Dicker Data at least on an annual basis, and otherwise as Dicker Data’s operations evolve, to ensure that the board nomination process is being appropriately handled. The Board will establish a nomination committee in the future as it deems appropriate. Recommendation 2.5: Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of the board, its committees and individual directors. The Board reviews the performance of the Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer. Potential nominations to the Board are assessed by the full Board. The Board will consider undertaking a self assessment individual performance in 2012 if it is deemed appropriate. As part of the annual review of the performance of the Board, the appropriate size, composition and terms and conditions of appointment to and retirement from the Board are considered. The level of remuneration for non-executive Directors is considered with regard to practices of other public companies and the aggregate amount of fees approved by shareholders. The Board also reviews the appropriate criteria for Board membership collectively. 18 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 The Board has established formal processes to review its own performance and the performance of individual Directors (including the Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer) and the committees of the Board. Board A process has been established to review and evaluate the performance of the Board. The Board is required to meet annually with the speciﬁ c purpose of reviewing the role of the Board, assessing its performance over the previous 12 months, including comparison with others, and examining ways in which the Board can better perform its duties. The review will incorporate the performance of the Board. The annual review includes consideration of the following measures: (a) assessment of the performance of the Board over the previous twelve months having regard to the corporate strategies, operating plans and the annual budget; (b) review the Board’s interaction with management; (c) identiﬁ cation of any particular goals and objectives of the Board for the next year; (d) review the type and timing of information provided to the Directors; and (e) identiﬁ cation of any necessary or desirable improvements to Board. The method and scope of the performance evaluation will be set by the Board and which may include a Board self- assessment checklist to be completed by each Director. The Board may also use an independent adviser to assist in the review. Committees Similar procedures to those for the Board review will be applied to evaluate the performance of any Board committees established by Dicker Data. An assessment will be made of the performance of each committee against each charter and areas identiﬁ ed where improvements can be made. Non-executive Directors The Chairman will have primary responsibility for conducting performance appraisals of non-executive Directors in conjunction with them, having particular regard to: (a) contribution to Board discussion and function; (b) degree of independence including any conﬂ icts of interest; (c) availability for and attendance at Board meetings and other relevant events; (d) contribution to Company strategy; (e) membership of and contribution to any Board committees; and (f) suitability to Board structure and composition. Where the Chairman, following a performance appraisal, considers that action must be taken in relation to a Director’s performance, the Chairman must consult with the remainder of the Board regarding whether a Director should be counselled to resign, not seek re-election, or in exceptional circumstances, whether a resolution for the removal of a Director be put to shareholders. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 19 Corporate Governance Statement Principal 3: Promote ethical and responsible decision making Recommendation 3.1: Companies should establish a code of conduct and disclose the code or a summary of the code as to: ■ The practices necessary to maintain conﬁ dence in the company’s integrity ■ The practices necessary to take into account their legal obligations and the reasonable expectations of their stakeholders ■ The responsibility and accountability of individuals for reporting and investigating reports of unethical practices. Dicker Data has two codes of conduct – one speciﬁ cally for directors and key ofﬁ cers and another outlining the obligation to stakeholders. Generally, Dicker Data requires that its Directors, management and staff comply with and respect the law, conduct themselves professionally and commit to the standards of employment set down by Dicker Data. Dicker Data also requires that all potential conﬂ icts of interest are reported and that its Code of Conduct for Dicker Data’s obligations to Stakeholders and Code of Conduct for directors and key ofﬁ cers be otherwise complied with. Recommendation 3.2: Companies should establish a policy concerning diversity and disclose the policy or a summary of that policy. The policy should include requirements for the board to establish measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity and for the board to assess annually both the objectives and progress in achieving them. The company has not adopted a formal Diversity Policy at this stage. The Board will consider how appropriate such a policy is for the Company in due course. Recommendation 3.3: Companies should disclose in each annual report the measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity set by the board in accordance with the diversity policy and progress towards achieving them. The Board has not set any speciﬁ c gender diversity objectives for the Company. The Board is of the view that there is an adequate balance between genders across the business and the numbers disclosed below reﬂ ect this. Recommendation 3.4: Companies should disclose in each annual report the proportion of women employees in the whole organisation, women in senior executive positions and women on the board. The Company employees the follow ratio of women to men throughout the organisation: 33 Females (40%) : 48 Males (60%) The Board of Directors comprises ﬁ ve members, two of which are women. Principal 4: Safeguard integrity in ﬁ nancial reporting Recommendation 4.1: The board should establish an audit committee. The Board considers that its relatively small size and the expertise of directors allows the full Board to perform an audit committee function. Accordingly, the Board does not consider it necessary or appropriate in the context to establish a separate committee for this purpose. 20 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 Rather, the Board will have processes and procedures in place which will address the issues that would otherwise be considered by the audit committee including: ■ ■ monitoring the independence of the external auditor who is required to conﬁ rm such independence on at least a semi-annual basis; and monitoring and the performance and terms of the audit engagement on an annual basis and updating, changing or replacing them as appropriate. The Board will review the audit requirements and processes of Dicker Data at least on an annual basis, and otherwise as Dicker Data’s operations evolve, to ensure that its audit requirements are being appropriately handled. The Board will establish an Audit Committee in the future as it deems appropriate. Recommendation 4.2: Structure the audit committee so that it consists of: - only non-executive directors - a majority of independent directors - an independent chairperson, who is not chairperson of the board - at least three members For the reasons noted above and due to the relative size and nature of Dicker Data’s activities, the Board does not consider it necessary or appropriate to adopt Recommendation 4.2. However, should an Audit Committee be established in the future, it will be structured to be commercially cost effective and appropriate to Dicker Data’s size and structure, having regard to Recommendation 4.2. Recommendation 4.3: The audit committee should have a formal charter. For the reasons noted above and due to the relative size and nature of Dicker Data’s activities, the Board does not consider it necessary or appropriate to adopt Recommendation 4.3. However, should an Audit Committee be established in the future, a formal Audit Committee Charter will be adopted in compliance with Recommendation 4.3. Principal 5: Make timely and balanced disclosure Recommendation 5.1: Companies should establish written policies designed to ensure compliance with ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements and to ensure accountability at a senior management level for that compliance and disclose those policies or a summary of those policies. The Board aims to ensure that the market is properly informed of all the information that is required to be disclosed under the Listing Rules of the ASX. The ultimate determination as to whether or not to disclose in doubtful cases may be made by the Board and/or the Chairman, taking into account the overall situation of Dicker Data and, if necessary, legal or other advice. The Board will consider establishing a Continuous Disclosure Compliance Committee to deal with continuous disclosure issues when and if it is deemed necessary. In this event, the Continuous Disclosure Compliance Committee will consist of the Chairman, the Company Secretary and, where available, any other Director. Dicker Data has adopted a formal Continuous Disclosure Policy which is available on the company website on www.dickerdata.com.au. Under the Board’s Continuous Disclosure Policy, all senior personnel must ensure that all reporting staff report any material event or development within their area of responsibility to their manager and to one or more of the Chairman and the Company Secretary. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 21 Corporate Governance Statement The Company Secretary will be the point of contact with the ASX. As a listed company, Dicker Data will not release information that is for release to the market to any person until it has given the information to the ASX and has received an acknowledgement from the ASX that the information has been released to the market. Principal 6: Respect the Rights of Shareholders Recommendation 6.1: Companies should design a communications policy for promoting effective communication with shareholders and encouraging their participation at general meetings and disclose their policy or a summary of that policy. Dicker Data aims to convey to its shareholders pertinent information in a detailed, regular, factual and timely manner. The Board has ensured that the annual report includes relevant information about the operations of Dicker Data during the year, and changes in the state of affairs of Dicker Data, in addition to the other disclosures required by the Corporations Act. Information will be communicated to shareholders by Dicker Data through: 1. Placement of market announcements on Dicker Data’s web-site www.dickerdata.com.au after the information has been given to the ASX and the usual acknowledgement has been received; 2. The annual and interim ﬁ nancial reports; 3. Disclosures to the ASX; 4. Notices and explanatory memoranda of annual general meetings; and 5. All shareholders are invited to attend and raise questions at the annual general meeting. All shareholders are welcome to communicate directly with Dicker Data. All queries will be answered to the maximum extent possible (with consideration given to commercially sensitive information, privacy requirements and Dicker Data’s disclosure obligations) and in a timely fashion. Dicker Data has not established any other formal policy document other than as noted above. Principle 7: Recognise and Manage Risk Recommendation 7.1: Companies should establish policies for the oversight and management and management of material business risks and disclose a summary of those policies. Although no formal policy has been adopted, the Board is committed to ensuring that the risks associated with Dicker Data’s business activities are properly identiﬁ ed, monitored and managed and to embedding in its management and reporting systems a number of risk management controls. The Board is to monitor and receive advice on areas of operational and ﬁ nancial risk, and consider strategies for appropriate risk management arrangements. Speciﬁ c areas of risk to be regularly considered at Board meetings are to include intellectual property, changes in government regulation, technology changes, human resources, integrity of data, statutory compliance and continuous disclosure obligations. 22 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 Recommendation 7.2: The board should require management to design and implement the risk management and internal control system to manage the company’s material business risks and report to it on whether those risks are being managed effectively. The board should disclose that management has reported to it as to the effectiveness of the company’s management of its material business risks. The Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer manages Dicker Data’s material business risks and reports to the Board. Materiality thresholds Dicker Data regularly reviews procedures, and ensures timely identiﬁ cation of material information and materiality thresholds. Materiality judgments can only be made on a case by case basis, when all the facts are available. In accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 1031, the Board would consider an amount which is: (a) equal or more than 10% of an appropriate base amount to be material unless there is evidence or convincing argument to the contrary; and (b) equal to or less than 5% of an appropriate base amount to be immaterial unless there is evidence or convincing argument to the contrary. The level between 5% and 10% of an appropriate base amount is considered to be a subjective area to be resolved by the Board. Recommendation 7.3: The board should disclose whether it has received assurance from the chief executive ofﬁ cer (or equivalent) and the chief ﬁ nancial ofﬁ cer (or equivalent) that the declaration provided in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that the system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to ﬁ nancial reporting risks. The Board conﬁ rms that the Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer and the Chief Financial Ofﬁ cer have made the following certiﬁ cations to the Board: The ﬁ nancial records of the company have been properly maintained in accordance with Section 286 of the Corporations Act 2001; The ﬁ nancial statements and notes thereto comply with the relevant accounting standards in all material respects as required by Section 296 of the corporations Act 2001; The ﬁ nancial statements and notes thereto give a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the ﬁ nancial position and performance of the company as required by Section 297 of the corporations Act 2001; and Any other matters are prescribed by the regulations in relation to the ﬁ nancial statements and the accompanying notes are satisﬁ ed. Principle 8: Remunerate Fairly and Responsibly Recommendation 8.1: The board should establish a remuneration committee. The Board considers that its relatively small size and the expertise of directors allows the full Board to also perform a remuneration committee function. Accordingly, the Board does not consider it necessary or appropriate in the context to establish a separate committee for this purpose. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 23 Corporate Governance Statement Rather, the Board will have processes and procedures in place which will address the issues that would otherwise be considered by the remuneration committee including ensuring that fees and remuneration to directors accord with the principles set out in 8.2 below. The Board will establish a remuneration committee in the future if it deems appropriate. Recommendation 8.2: The remuneration committee should be structure so that it: - consists of a majority of independent directors - is chaired by an independent chair - has at least three members Recommendation 8.3: Companies should clearly distinguish the structure of non-executive directors’ remuneration from that of executive directors and senior executives. With respect to non-executive Directors, the Board (or if established, the Remuneration Committee) is to ensure that: (a) fees paid to non-executive Directors are within the aggregate amount approved by shareholders and make recommendations to the Board with respect to the need for increases to that aggregate amount at the Annual General Meeting; (b) non-executive Directors are remunerated by way of fees (in the form of cash and/or superannuation beneﬁ ts); (c) non-executive Directors are not provided with retirement beneﬁ ts other than statutory superannuation entitlements; and (d) non-executive Directors are not entitled to participate in equity-based remuneration schemes designed for executives without due consideration and appropriate disclosure to Dicker Data’s shareholders. With respect to executives, the Board (or if established, the Remuneration Committee) is to ensure that: (a) executive remuneration packages involve a balance between ﬁ xed and incentive pay, reﬂ ecting short and long term performance objectives appropriate to Dicker Data’s circumstances and objectives; (b) a portion of executives’ remuneration is structured in a manner designed to link reward to corporate and individual performances; and (c) recommendations are made to the Board with respect to quantum of bonuses to be paid to executives. 24 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 Statement of Comprehensive Income For the year ended 30 June, 2011 Revenue Changes in inventories Consumables used Employee beneﬁ ts expense Depreciation and amortisation expenses Finance costs Insurance Proﬁ t / (Loss) on Asset Disposals Bad Debts Credit Card Fees Consultancy Fees IPO Expenses Other expenses Profit before income tax Income tax expense Proﬁ t for the period Proﬁ t attributable to members of the company Other comprehensive income, net of tax Total Comprehensive Income for the period Total comprehensive income attributable to members of the company Earnings per share - basic earnings per share (cents) - diluted earnings per share (cents) The statement of comprehensive income is to be read in conjunction with the attached notes.

Dicker Data is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. During the ﬁ nancial year the company converted from a private proprietary limited company to a listed public company and changed its name from Rodin Corporation Pty Limited to Dicker Data Limited. 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Preparation The ﬁ nancial report is a general purpose ﬁ nancial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Accounting Interpretations) of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a ﬁ nancial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the ﬁ nancial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this ﬁ nancial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. The ﬁ nancial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modiﬁ ed by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, and ﬁ nancial assets and ﬁ nancial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied. The ﬁ nancial report is presented in Australian Dollars and was authorised for issue by the directors on 7 September 2011. Changes in Accounting Policy Dicker Data has made a change to its accounting policy for the ﬁ nancial year ending 30 June 2011 relating to the measurement of Property, Plant and Equipment, speciﬁ cally in relation to Land and Buildings. This class of asset was previously carried at a revalued amount, being its fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. The company has now elected to measure its Land and Buildings using the cost model permitted under AASB116 Property, Plant and Equipment. This change has been implemented as the directors are of the opinion that the cost model is the most appropriate method to provide reliable and more relevant information on the company’s ﬁ nancial postion. The aggregate effect of the change in accounting policy on the annual ﬁ nancial statements for the year ended 30 June 2011 is presented below. As the company has retrospectively applied a change in accounting policy and made a retrospective restatement of items in the ﬁ nancial statements, an additional statement of ﬁ nancial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period, being 1 July 2009, has been disclosed within the ﬁ nancial statements.

Current income tax expense charged to the proﬁ t or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited outside proﬁ t or loss when the tax relates to items that are recognised outside proﬁ t or loss. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the ﬁ nancial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability where there is no effect on accounting or taxable proﬁ t or loss. Deferred income tax expense reﬂ ects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balance during the year as well as unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted as at the end of the reporting period. Their measurement also reﬂ ects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable proﬁ t will be available against which the beneﬁ ts of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which signiﬁ cant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. (b) Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on the basis of weighted average cost. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business. 32 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 (c) Property, Plant and Equipment Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed annually by the directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from those assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of expected net cash ﬂ ows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash ﬂ ows have been discounted to present values in determining recoverable amounts. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic beneﬁ ts associated with the item will ﬂ ow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the ﬁ nancial period in which they are incurred. Depreciation The depreciable amount of all ﬁ xed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets, but excluding freehold land, are depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives to the entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. The useful life in years used for each class of depreciable asset are: Class of Fixed Asset: Buildings Plant and equipment Motor vehicles Useful Life 25 Yrs 4 - 16 2/3 Yrs 8 Yrs The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. (d) Leases Leases of ﬁ xed assets, where substantially all the risks and beneﬁ ts incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership are transferred to the company are classiﬁ ed as ﬁ nance leases. Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period. Leased assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and beneﬁ ts remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 33 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June, 2011 (e) Financial Instruments Initial recognition and measurement Financial instruments, incorporating ﬁ nancial assets and ﬁ nancial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for ﬁ nancial assets that are delivered within timeframes established by marketplace convention. Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs. Where the instrument is classiﬁ ed ‘at fair value through proﬁ t or loss’ transactions costs are expensed to proﬁ t or loss immediately. Classiﬁ cation and subsequent measurement Financial instruments are subsequently measured at either fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method or cost. Fair value represents the amount for which an asset could be exchanged or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. Amortised cost is calculated as: (I) the amount at which the ﬁ nancial asset or ﬁ nancial liability is measured at initial recognition; (ii) less principal repayments; (iii) plus or minus the cumulative amortisation of the difference, if any, between the amount initially recognised and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method; and (iv) less any reduction of impairment. The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction cost and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the ﬁ nancial instrument to the net carrying amount of the ﬁ nancial asset or ﬁ nancial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash ﬂ ows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in proﬁ t or loss. (i) Financial assets at fair value through proﬁ t or loss Financial assets are classiﬁ ed at ‘fair value through proﬁ t or loss’ when they are either held for trading for the purpose of short term proﬁ t taking. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in proﬁ t or loss. The company has not held any ﬁ nancial assets at fair value through proﬁ t and loss in the current or comparative ﬁ nancial year. (ii) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period, which will be classiﬁ ed as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are non-derivative ﬁ nancial assets with ﬁ xed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. (iii) Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period, which will be classiﬁ ed as current assets. 34 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 If during the period the company sold or reclassiﬁ ed more than an insigniﬁ cant amount of the held-to-maturity investments before maturity, the entire category of held-to-maturity investments would be tainted and would be reclassiﬁ ed as available-for-sale. (iv) Available-for-sale ﬁ nancial assets Available-for-sale ﬁ nancial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to be disposed of within 12 months after the end of the reporting period, which will be classiﬁ ed as current assets. (v) Financial liabilities Non-derivative ﬁ nancial liabilities (excluding ﬁ nancial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Fair value Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. Impairment At the end of each reporting period, the company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a ﬁ nancial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale ﬁ nancial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. (f) Impairment of assets At the end of each reporting period, the company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include considering external sources of information and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition proﬁ ts. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of comprehensive income. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. (g) Employee Beneﬁ ts Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee beneﬁ ts arising from services rendered by employees to the end of the reporting period. Employee beneﬁ ts that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee beneﬁ ts payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outﬂ ows to be made for those beneﬁ ts. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wage increases and the probability that the employee may not satisfy vesting requirements. Those cash ﬂ ows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash ﬂ ows. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 35 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June, 2011 (h) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outﬂ ow of economic beneﬁ ts will result and that outﬂ ow can be reliably measured. Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period. (i) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. (j) Revenue and Other Income Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Sale of goods revenue is recognised at the point of sale, which is where the customer has taken delivery of the goods, the risks and rewards are transferred to the customer and there is a valid sales contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of sales returns. Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a ﬁ nancial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the ﬁ nancial asset to the net carrying amount of the ﬁ nancial asset. Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). (k) Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in expenses in the period in which they are incurred. (l) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Tax Ofﬁ ce. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of ﬁ nancial position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash ﬂ ows are presented in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and ﬁ nancing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash ﬂ ows. (m) Contributed Equity Ordinary shares are classiﬁ ed as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax from proceeds. 36 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 (n) Comparative Figures When required by Accounting Standards, comparative ﬁ gures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current year. (o) Critical Accounting Estimates and Adjustments The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the ﬁ nancial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the company. The directors have identiﬁ ed the following critical accounting policies for which signiﬁ cant judgements, estimates and assumptions are made. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and may materially affect the ﬁ nancial results or the ﬁ nancial position in future periods. Further details on the nature of these assumptions and conditions are noted below: Consumables Used Cost of goods are represented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income net of supplier rebates. Supplier rebates can be paid monthly, quarterly or half yearly. At the end of the ﬁ nancial year an estimate of rebates due relating to the ﬁ nancial year is accounted for based on best available information at the time of the rebate being paid. Income tax The company is subject to income taxes based on the income tax laws of Australia. Signiﬁ cant judgement is required in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax expense based on it’s current understanding of the tax law. Where the ﬁ nal tax outcome of these matters is different from the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. Recovery of deferred tax assets Judgement is required in assessing whether certain deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognised on the Statement of Financial Position. Deferred tax assets including those arising from capital losses are recognised only when it is considered more likely than not that they will be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of future capital proﬁ ts. An assumption has been made that there is a likelihood that future capital proﬁ ts will be earned. Estimation of useful lives of assets The company determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and deﬁ nite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change signiﬁ cantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 37 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June, 2011 Long service leave provision The liability for long service leave is recognised and measured at the present value of the estimated future cash ﬂ ows to be made in respect of all employees at the reporting date. Provision for impairment of receivables The provision for impairment of receivables assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the ageing of receivables, historical collection rates and speciﬁ c knowledge of the individual debtors ﬁ nancial position. The impairment for receivables has been calculated net of estimated insurance recoveries Provision for impairment of inventories The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of the provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that affect inventory obsolescence. Share Option Reserve The share option reserve represents fair value of options on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. (p) Adoption of New & Revised Accounting Standards During the current year, the company has adopted all of the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations applicable to its operations which became mandatory. The adoption of these Standards has not had any material impact on the ﬁ nancial statements of the company. Any new revised or amending Accounting standards or interpretation that are not yet mandatory have not been adopted. 38 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 (q) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods The following Australian Accounting Standards issued or amended which may be applicable to the company but are not yet effective and have not been adopted in preparation of the ﬁ nancial statements at reporting date. The new and amended Accounting Standards and interpretations are not expected to have any material impact on the company.

A provision for impairment is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual trade receivable is impaired. The provision for impairment of receivables has been calculated net of estimated insurance recoveries. Movements in the provision for impairment of receivables: Opening balance Charge for the year Closing balance Note 2011 $ 106,001 29,417 135,418 2010 $ 89,852 16,149 106,001 Past due but not impaired The following table details the company’s trade receivables exposed to credit risk with ageing analysis and impairment provided for thereon. Amounts are considered as ‘past due’ when the debt has not been settled within the terms and conditions agreed between the company and the customer or counterparty to the transaction. Receivables that are past due are assessed for impairment by ascertaining solvency of the debtors and are provided for where there are speciﬁ c circumstances indicating that the debt may not be fully repaid to the company. Customers with balances past due but without provision for impairment of receivables amount to $2,140,523 as at 30 June 2011 (2010: $895,794). The company did not consider a credit risk on these balances after reviewing credit terms of customers and trading history.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The company’s ﬁ nancial instruments consist mainly of accounts receivable and payable and ﬁ nance and lease liabilities. The totals for each category of ﬁ nancial instruments are as follows: Financial Risk Management Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents Loans and receivables Total Financial Assets Note 9 10 $ 600 63,554,061 63,554,661 $ 20,600 38,175,318 38,195,918 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 51 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June, 2011 Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Total Financial Liabilities Note 16 17 2011 $ 2010 $ 72,830,833 35,164,120 28,582,320 30,372,364 101,413,154 65,536,484 Financial Risk Management Policies The directors’ overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the company in meeting its ﬁ nancial targets, whilst minimising potential adverse effects on ﬁ nancial performance. Although the company does not have any documented policies and procedures, the key management personnel manage the different types of risks to which the company is exposed by considering risk and monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate and credit risk and by being aware of market forecasts for interest rates. Ageing analyses and monitoring of speciﬁ c credit allowances are undertaken to manage credit risk. Liquidity risk is managed through general business budgets and forecasts. The main purpose of non-derivative ﬁ nancial instruments is to raise ﬁ nance for company operations. The company does not have any derivative instruments at year end. The directors and key management personnel meet on a regular basis to analyse ﬁ nancial risk exposure and to evaluate treasury management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts. Speciﬁ c Financial Risk Exposures and Management The main risks the company is exposed to through its ﬁ nancial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. (a) Credit risk Exposure to credit risk relating to ﬁ nancial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a ﬁ nancial loss to the company. Credit risk is reviewed regularly by the directors and key management personnel. It arises from exposures to customers, as well as through deposits with ﬁ nancial institutions. The company’s exposure to credit risk is limited due to debtor insurance which is held over its trade receivables. The insurance policy limits the exposure of the company to 10% of the individual customer’s balance plus the excess as speciﬁ ed in the policy after an aggregate ﬁ rst loss of $200,000. Receivables balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the company’s exposure to bad debts has not been signiﬁ cant. It is the company’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit veriﬁ cation procedures including an assessment of their credit rating, ﬁ nancial position, past experience and industry reputation. Credit limits are set for each individual customer in accordance with parameters set by the directors. These credit limits are regularly monitored. Customers that do not meet the company’s strict credit policies may only purchase in cash or using recognised credit cards. 52 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2011 Credit risk exposures The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised ﬁ nancial assets at balance date, excluding the value of any collateral or other security held, is equivalent to the carrying value and classiﬁ cation of those ﬁ nancial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the statement of ﬁ nancial position. The company has no signiﬁ cant concentration of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties. Trade and other receivables that are neither past due or impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. (b) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the company might encounter difﬁ culty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to ﬁ nancial liabilities. The company manages this risk through the following mechanisms: - preparing forward-looking cash ﬂ ow analyses in relations to its operational, investing and ﬁ nancing activities; - monitoring undrawn credit facilities; - obtaining funding from a variety of sources; - maintaining a reputable credit proﬁ le; - managing credit risk, related to ﬁ nancial assets. The tables below reﬂ ect an undiscounted contractual maturity analysis for ﬁ nancial liabilities. Financial guarantee liabilities are treated as payable on demand since the company has no control over the timing of any potential settlement of the liability. Cash ﬂ ows realised from ﬁ nancial instruments reﬂ ect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may therefore differ from that disclosed. The timing of cash ﬂ ows presented in the table to settle ﬁ nancial liabilities reﬂ ect the earliest contractual settlement dates and do not reﬂ ect management’s expectations that banking facilities will roll forward.

(c) Interest Rate Risk The company’s main interest rate risk arises from borrowings. All borrowings are at variable interest rates and expose the company to interest rate risk which will impact future cash ﬂ ows and interest charges and is indicated by the following ﬂ oating interest rate ﬁ nancial liabilities: Floating rate instruments Bank Overdrafts Debtor ﬁ nance Bank loans - secured Sensitivity Analysis Note 17 17 17 2011 $ 20,230,379 - 7,158,133 27,388,512 2010 $ 20,146,263 3,077 10,174,237 30,323,577 The company has performed a sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to interest rate risk at balance date. If interest rates changed by -/+ 1% from the year end rates with all other variables held constant, post tax proﬁ t would have been $191,720 lower/ higher (2010: $212,265 lower/higher) as a result of higher/lower interest payments. The company constantly analyses its interest rate exposure. Within this analysis consideration is given to alternative ﬁ nancing and the mix of ﬁ xed and variable interest rates. 26.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES The company had disclosed in its Half Year Report that it had received a Statement of Claim for preference payments. The claim was in relation to payments received from a debtor that had since gone into liquidation. Whilst the claim was highly defendable based on legal advice sought, in an effort to avoid incurring further costs and inconvenience of trial a conﬁ dential settlement was agreed on and a conﬁ dential Deed of Settlement was entered into on 11 August 2011. This is due to be paid by 12th September, 2011. This liability will be reduced by our entitlement to claim a proportion of the settlement amount under our debtor insurance policy. The directors believe this will not have a material impact on the ﬁ nancial statements.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Independence In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
