Our results for this year, with revenue of $457m and net proﬁ t after tax of $8.3m show a very solid improvement from last year. The economic conditions have probably been more difﬁ cult but the tremendous performance by our employees and management team have allowed us to improve on the previous year. Despite the difﬁ cult economic conditions the results are our best ever reported, reﬂ ecting consistent strong performance. As at 15th August 2012 our shares were trading at 45 cents, up from the IPO ﬁ gure of 20 cents. We are also adding 5,000 square metres to our existing warehouse of 4,000 square metres. All good and all auguring well for the future. However despite the results, we continue to struggle with the majority of the analyst community. I am constantly told that our dividends are too high, we do not have ‘independent’ directors and there are not enough shares with the public. Rather than discuss this in detail I will just say that our results speak loudly and that I am very comfortable with our strategies. We expect to increase the public holding in DDR to 15% this year. David Dicker CEO and Chairman Sydney, 31 August 2012 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 3 Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2012 Your directors present their report on Dicker Data Limited (Dicker Data) for the year ended 30 June 2012. 1. Principal activities The principal activities of the company during the year were wholesale distribution of computer hardware and related products. There were no signiﬁ cant changes in the nature of the activities carried out during the year. 2. Dividends Record Date Payment Date Type Cents $’000 Dividends declared and paid during the ﬁ nancial year: 21-Sep-11 5-Jan-12 26-Mar-12 28-Sep-11 12-Jan-12 4-Apr-12 Final 2011 Interim 2012 Interim 2012 $ 0.0200 $ 0.0093 $ 0.0093 2,530 1,176 1,176 Dividends declared during the ﬁ nancial year but not paid: 27-Jun-12 6-Jul-12 Interim 2012 $ 0.0150 1,897 3. Operating and ﬁ nancial review A snapshot of the operations of the company for the full year and the results of those operations are as follows: Operating Revenues Gross Proﬁ t Earnings Before Tax Earnings Before Interest, Tax and Depreciation (EBITDA) Net Proﬁ t after Tax Earnings Per Share (cents) 2012 (in 000’s) 2011 (in 000’s) % Change 456,648 385,246 32,367 12,265 16,098 8,276 6.55 26,178 8,788 11,779 6,132 5.02 18.5% 23.6% 39.6% 36.7% 35.0% 30.5% Total revenue for the full year was $457m (2011 - $385m), an improvement of 18.5% on the same period last year. The strong revenue growth was primarily driven by the improved logistics capacity that the new purpose built warehouse provided, which was not available for the full period in the previous corresponding year. The company relocated to the new facility in November 2010. Revenue growth can also be attributed to growth in new vendors ASUS, Buffalo and Lenovo for which a full 12 months is not reﬂ ected in the previous corresponding period. We were appointed distributor for these vendors during the latter half of the previous corresponding year or during this ﬁ nancial year. We also managed to increase our market share with our existing vendors resulting in our highest annual revenue to date. Gross proﬁ t for the full year was $32m (2011: $26m) an increase of 23.6% which is reﬂ ective of increased sales volume in the current year. The increase in gross proﬁ t is also as a result of aligning our revenue with more proﬁ table product lines and ceasing distribution of unproﬁ table vendors. This is in line with the company’s overall objective of constantly reviewing our vendor and product mix. 4 4 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2012 Proﬁ t before tax amounted to $12.3m (2011: $8.8m) an increase of 39.6% for the full year. Net Proﬁ t after tax amounted to $8.3m (2011: $6.1m) an increase of 35% for the full year. Earnings per share increased by 30.5% to 6.55 cents per share. 4. Earnings per share Basic Earnings Per Share (cents) Diluted Earnings Per Share (cents) * * on basis options exercised 2012 2011 6.55 6.48 5.02 5.00 5. Signiﬁ cant changes in the state of affairs In December 2011, Dicker Data entered into a new banking relationship with St George Bank for a total facility amount of $56.8m, which included debtor ﬁ nancing, asset ﬁ nancing and other working capital facilities. The new facility has provided the company with greater ﬂ exibility in funding our working capital requirements. There were no other signiﬁ cant changes in the state of affairs of the company during the year. 6. Signiﬁ cant events after the balance date In August the company entered into a contract to extend the current warehouse facility by an additional 5,000 square metres. This will more than double the existing warehouse capacity and sets the Company up for future growth. Construction should commence in September 2012 and the project is expected to be completed in 26 weeks. The construction will be ﬁ nanced from the Company’s cash ﬂ ows and drawing on existing funding already in place with St George Bank. 7. Likely developments and expected results In the 2013 ﬁ nancial year we will continue to focus on reviewing our vendor and supplier mix and adjust accordingly to meet current market conditions. Consequently, the objective will be long term proﬁ tability for Dicker Data. Signiﬁ cant focus will be placed on off-premise IT capabilities (datacentre and cloud strategies), which is anticipated will result in higher infrastructure, service and annuity revenues. The increased warehouse capacity will also position the Company for future growth and improvements in efﬁ ciency. Further information on likely developments in the operations of the company and the expected results of operations has not been included in this report because the directors believe it would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the company. 8.

Remuneration report All information in this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001. The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings: A Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration B Details of remuneration C Service agreements D Share-based compensation E Additional information (A) Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration The board addresses remuneration policies and practices generally, and determines remuneration packages and other terms of employment for senior executives. 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 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.

David Dicker CEO and Chairman Sydney, 31 August 2012 12 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Corporate Governance Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 Unless disclosed below, all the best practice recommendations of the ASX Corporate Governance Council have been applied by Dicker Data Limited (Dicker Data or Company). Principal 1: Lay Solid Foundations for Management and Oversight Recommendation 1.1: Companies should establish the functions reserved to the Board and those delegated to senior executives and disclose those functions. The Board is accountable to shareholders for the performance of Dicker Data and has overall responsibility for its direction and management and the formulation of policies to be applied in Dicker Data’s business. The Board has adopted a Charter which outlines the responsibilities reserved for the Board in detail. This Charter is published on Dicker Data’s website ww.dickerdata.com.au. Some key responsibilities of the Board are as follows: (a) appoint and review the performance of the Chairman and management; (b) develop and approve strategy, planning and major capital expenditure; (c) arrange for effective budgeting and ﬁ nancial supervision; (d) ensure that appropriate audit arrangements are in place; (e) ensure that effective and appropriate reporting systems in place will, in particular, assure the Board that proper ﬁ nancial, operational, compliance and risk management controls function adequately; and (f ) report to shareholders. The Board is also responsible to shareholders for Dicker Data’s strategic direction and the execution of Dicker Data’s overall objective, which is to increase long-term shareholder value. Decisions which are not part of the day to day management of Dicker Data or which have not been delegated to the Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer or executive team, must be made by the Board. Recommendation 1.2: Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of senior executives. The Board is responsible for reviewing the performance of the Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer and also monitoring the performance of key management personnel. The performance of the Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer is measured by comparing actual performance against planned performance in terms of the budget, the Company’s share price and Corporate strategy development. The Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer is responsible for assessing the performance of the key executives within Dicker Data. The basis of evaluation of senior executives is on agreed performance measures, examining the effectiveness and quality of the individual, assessing key contributions, identifying areas of potential improvement and assessing whether various expectations of shareholders have been met. Performance evaluations are undertaken annually, in September, by managers. This policy is reviewed annually. Principal 2: Structure the Board to Add Value Recommendation 2.1: A majority of the board should be independent directors. As at the reporting date, the Board is composed of the following ﬁ ve Directors, including one non-executive Director: Name David Dicker Position Chairman and Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer Fiona Brown Non-Executive Director Mary Stojcevski Executive Director Chris Price Michael Demetre 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; Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 13 Corporate Governance Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 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 group member 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 currently no independent Directors on the Board. The Board considers that its composition is appropriate to Dicker Data’s size and operational structure, the directors’ experience and their collective 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 including some 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. The Board has chosen not to undertake an annual review of its performance and composition during the year ended 30 June 2012. This is due to the fact that the Board has only been existence since listing on the ASX in January 2011 and the operations of the business do not require additional skillsets at this point in time to drive the business and shareholder returns. As the business evolves, the Board expects to conduct a review of its performance and composition, 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 the Company’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, history of the business 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. 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 for the Company’s current operational structure and the nature of its activities. Recommendation 2.4: The board should establish a nomination committee. The Board does not currently 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 to be 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 believes that the requirements and nomination processes are currently appropriate for the Company. The Board will establish a nomination committee in the future should the requirement arise. 14 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Corporate Governance Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 Recommendation 2.5: Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of the board, its committees and individual directors. The Board does not currently undertake an assessment of individual performance of Directors in the Board context, or of the Board as a whole. For the reasons outlined above, the Board is of the view that it is currently of the appropriate size and composition required to carry out its role. There are currently no committees of the Board which require a review. The Board acknowledges the beneﬁ t of establishing a process to review and evaluate the performance of individual Directors and the Board as a whole, and due consideration will be given to this in the next 12 months. It is anticipated that such an annual review will include 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 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 in the future. 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 will 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. 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 it’s Code of Conduct for Dicker Data’s obligations to Stakeholders and Code of Conduct for directors and key ofﬁ cers be otherwise complied with. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 15 Corporate Governance Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 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. Currently, the Board does not consider a formal policy to be warranted as the Company is one which has an open policy to diversity, including gender diversity. This is evident in the number of females to males in the whole organization, at management level and also on the Board. 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 as it does not yet have a formal Diversity Policy. 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 employs the following ratio of women to men throughout the organisation: Organisation-wide: 37 Females (40%): 56 Males (60%) Senior Executive Positions: The Board of Directors: 2 Females: 3 Males 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 existing 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. 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. 16 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Corporate Governance Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 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. The Company Secretary is 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. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 17 Corporate Governance Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 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 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. The Chief Executive Ofﬁ cer manages Dicker Data’s material business risks and reports to the Board. Principle 8: Remunerate Fairly and Responsibly 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. 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. 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 director’s accord with principles set out in 8.2 below. Recommendation 8.2: The remuneration committee should be structured so that it: - consists of a majority of independent directors - - has at least three members is chaired by an independent chair The Board will establish a remuneration committee in the future if it deems appropriate. Recommendation 8.3: Companies should clearly distinguish the structure of non-executive directors’ remuneration from that of executive directors and senior executives. 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: With respect to non-executive Directors, the Board (or if established, the Remuneration Committee) is to ensure that: 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; (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); 18 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Corporate Governance Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 (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. There is currently only one non-executive director on the Board of Dicker Data, Fiona Brown and she does not receive any remuneration for her role. 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.

Dicker Data is a listed public Company incorporated and domiciled in Australia. 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, as appropriate for proﬁ t oriented entities. 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 31 August 2012. (a) Income Tax Income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income). 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) 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. 24 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 (c) Trade Receivables Trade receivables, which are non-interest bearing and generally due for settlement within 30 days from end of month, are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less an allowance for impairment. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is raised when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to original terms. Signiﬁ cant ﬁ nancial difﬁ culties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or ﬁ nancial reorganisation and default or delinquency in payments (more than 90 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable may be impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash ﬂ ows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment. (d) 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. (e) Property, Plant and Equipment Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 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 is: Class of Fixed Asset Buildings Property Improvements Plant and equipment Motor vehicles Useful Life 25 years 10 – 20 years 2 - 10 years 8 years 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 re-valued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. (f) Intangible Assets Intangible assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains and losses recognised in proﬁ t or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of ﬁ nite life intangibles are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period. Website Design and Development Signiﬁ cant costs associated with the website design and development are deferred and amortised on a straight line basis over a period of its expected beneﬁ t, being its ﬁ nite life of 5 years. Amortisation of the asset is to commence when the website becomes ﬁ rst available for use. (g) 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. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 25 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 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. (h) 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 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. 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. (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. 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. 26 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 (i) 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. (j) 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. (k) Trade and other payables These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the ﬁ nancial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short term nature they are measured at amortised cost and not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 -60 days of recognition. (l) 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. (m) 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. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. (n) 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. (o) 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 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 27 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 Flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and ﬁ nancing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash ﬂ ows. (p) 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. (q) Comparative Figures When required by Accounting Standards, comparative ﬁ gures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current year. (r) 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 its current understanding of the tax law. 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 it is unlikely 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. 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. 28 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 (s) 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.

All ordinary shares issued as at 30 June 2012 are fully paid. Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the company in proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. On a show of hands every holder of ordinary shares present at a meeting in person or by proxy is entitled to one vote, and upon a poll each share is entitled to one vote. The issue of shares in the company, subject to legislative requirements, is under the control of the directors. Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 37 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 (b) Share Options On the 9th of August 2011, Newport Capital Group Pty Ltd exercised 1,500,000 options at the strike price of $0.20c per share. The company has received the payment for the options and has issued the shares to Newport Capital Group Pty Ltd. In the 2011 ﬁ nancial year options were granted to Stonebridge Securities Ltd and related parties. The options granted were to acquire 1,200,000 fully paid ordinary shares, exercisable at $0.25 anytime within 36 months from the date of granting, expiring on 24 January, 2014. As at the date of this report these options have not been exercised. (c) Capital Management Management controls the capital of the company in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the shareholders with adequate returns and to ensure that the company can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. The company’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and ﬁ nancial liabilities, supported by ﬁ nancial assets. Management effectively manage the company’s capital by assessing the company’s ﬁ nancial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholder and share issues. The Company announced in December 2011 a new dividend policy providing for quarterly dividends to be paid, with the aim to pay out dividends of up to 100% of underlying after tax proﬁ ts from operations. In determining the amount of dividends management will take into account historical earnings of the Company, available free cash ﬂ ow from trading and projected capital expenditure. Note 20. RESERVES (a) Capital Proﬁ ts Reserve (Pre-CGT) The capital proﬁ ts reserve records non-taxable proﬁ ts on sale of investments.

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: Note Financial Risk Management Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents Loans and receivables Total Financial Assets Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Total Financial Liabilities 9 10 16 17 2012 $’000 222 68,670 68,893 58,520 47,103 2011 $’000 1 63,554 63,555 72,831 28,582 105,624 101,413 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 39 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 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 (a) credit risk (b) liquidity risk and (c) interest rate 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. 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. 40 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 Financial liability maturity analysis Financial liabilities due for payment Trade and other payables Borrowings Total contractual outﬂ ows Note 2012 $’000 2011 $’000 Within 1 Year Within 1 Year 58,520 46,145 72,831 27,618 104,665 100,449 Financial liabilities due for payment 1 to 5 Years 1 to 5 Years Borrowings Total contractual outﬂ ows Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Total expected outﬂ ows 959 959 58,520 47,103 964 964 72,831 28,582 105,624 101,413 16 17 Financial assets pledged as collateral Certain ﬁ nancial assets have been pledged as security for the debt and their realisation into cash may be restricted subject to terms and conditions attached to the relevant debt contracts. (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 Debtor ﬁ nance Bank loans - secured Note 17 17 2012 $’000 45,988 - 45,988 2011 $’000 20,230 7,158 27,389 Sensitivity Analysis 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 $321,920 lower/higher (2011: $191,720 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.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES As at 30 June 2012 a bank guarantee totalling $70,000 (2011: $nil) was provided to Sydney Water Corporation for works and adjustment to a Sydney Water asset at 230 Captain Cook Drive, Kurnell.

EVENTS AFTER BALANCE DATE In August the company entered into a contract to extend the current warehouse facility by an additional 5,000 square metres.

Construction should commence in September 2012 and the project is expected to be completed in 26 weeks. The construction will be ﬁ nanced from the Company’s cash ﬂ ows and drawing on existing funding already in place with St George Bank. There is no other matter or circumstance that has arisen since 30 June 2012 that has signiﬁ cantly affected, or may signiﬁ cantly affect the Company’s operations, the results of those operations or the Company’s state of affairs in future ﬁ nancial years. 42 Dicker Data Limited | Annual Report 2012 Shareholder Information for the year ended 30 June 2012 The shareholder information set out below was applicable as at 22 August 2012 Ordinary Share Capital As at 22 August 2012, the issued capital of the Company was 126,500,000 ordinary fully paid shares.
