chairman'S report

the company operates in sectors of the economy which offer 
strong opportunities to grow its business operations over the 
next few years. combined with ongoing improvements in the 
business, we expect further revenue growth in 2012 along with 
material improvement in profitability.

on behalf of the board of engenco limited, i have great 
pleasure in presenting the company’s 2011 annual report. 
the last year has been a period of significant change and 
challenge as we have gone about the task of rebuilding 
the fortunes of the company and converting the 
considerable potential that resides within the organisation 
into great outcomes.  

return to profitability and a 
strengthened balance sheet

through greater cooperation across the business. 
Some initial examples include group wide oh&S and 
procurement initiatives which will yield positive results.

Systems and process development including enterprise 
resource planning remains a key ingredient in managing 
the successful growth of the company and requires 
further improvement. this will be aided considerably by 
the completion of the rollout of Sap which was restarted 
in the 2011 financial year.

Some of the most pleasing aspects of the past year 
have been the return to profitability and closing the 
year with a substantially strengthened balance sheet 
following successful capital raisings in which a significant 
proportion of the funds raised was used to reduce bank 
debt and restore the company’s gearing to a more 
sustainable level.

the positive financial result reported in 2011 represents 
a strong achievement in the first year of what is a 
3 – 5 year turnaround strategy. We expect ongoing 
and sustainable improvement over the remainder of 
this period. While much more needs to be done, many 
of the challenges ahead present some of the greatest 
opportunities for rewarding growth.

corporate governance

We have continued to develop the company’s corporate 
governance practices to ensure that the expectations of 
our shareholders and other stakeholders are positively 
satisfied. a key aspect of this is the strong level of 
engagement between the board and management.

the appointment of ross dunning ac as an independent 
non executive director in november 2010 was a further 
positive development in enhancing the board’s skills set 
and capability.

strategy

While the company has entered the current financial year 
in far better shape than when it started the last year, we 
also now operate in an increasingly volatile and competitive 
environment in which we will need to continue to strive to 
improve our efficiency and competitiveness.          

outlooK

the company operates in sectors of the economy 
which offer strong opportunities to grow its business 
operations over the next few years. combined with 
ongoing improvements in the business, we expect 
further revenue growth in 2012 along with material 
improvement in profitability. 

the company benefited from the divestment of loss 
making businesses and underperforming assets combined 
with a renewed focus on the core strengths and 
competitive advantages of the business. 

We will continue to refine the restructure of our 
operations into more clearly defined and compatible 
business streams so that we can take better advantage of 
opportunities as they arise and extract greater efficiencies 

Such growth and improvement will also come from 
increasing our capacity to undertake further work more 
efficiently and through enhancing our existing product 
and service offerings. the utilisation of smart technology 
solutions will also be a key driver in the business.

the realisation of some opportunities may however be 
affected by the uncertainty created by the current volatile 
markets and the impact this may have on the business is

something of which we are conscious. While the pipeline 
of planned investment in resources and infrastructure 
projects in Australia is considerable, the impact of the 
timing of some of these projects can have an amplified 
effect on the Company where the expected revenues are 
relatively large and lumpy.  

PeoPle

An organisation can only achieve its objectives and goals 
through its people and while we are fortunate to be 
represented by a dedicated and capable team, we remain 
committed to continuing to develop our people and their 
skill base and to ensure they undertake their duties in 
a safe and fulfilling work environment. We are thankful 
that through our people’s efforts, the considerable 
achievements of the Company over the past year have 
been made possible. 

The loyalty demonstrated by our people is also found in 
many of our valued customers and suppliers to whom we 
extend our thanks for their past and ongoing support.

Importantly, we appreciate the ongoing support of our 
shareholders both long standing and those who have joined 
the register in more recent times. Please be assured of our 
ongoing commitment to deliver value to your investment 
and reward your faith in Engenco and its people.

our strategy of refocusing the business on its core capabilities 
and strengths has already yielded significant results with the 
marked improvement in overall financial performance and the 
delivery of a net profit after tax of $4.9 million

overview

considerable progress has been made over the past 
year in the turnaround of the company. our strategy 
of refocusing the business on its core capabilities and 
strengths has already yielded significant results with the 
marked improvement in overall financial performance 
and the delivery of a net profit after tax of $4.9 million 
particularly pleasing. disposals of underperforming assets 
and operations have also helped create a more focused 
approach towards the rest of the business.       

the corporate headquarters were relocated from perth to 
melbourne to improve the efficiency of Group accounting 
and investor relations functions. the benefits of the 
relocation are already evident and will continue to accrue 
over the next year.

the change of name to engenco limited was another 
positive aspect of the operational and structural changes 
which took place during the year.  

in support of our overall objectives and strategies, over 
the past year the company took the opportunity to 
among other things:

1	 promote an environment in which the strategic 
business units are actively encouraged to take 
advantage of the capabilities and efficiencies that can 
result from being part of the broader engenco Group. 
While this is still in the early stages, we expect there 
will be considerable ongoing benefits as working 
relationships across business streams continue to 
mature and develop.

2	Simplify the structure of the business into the two key 
segments of power & propulsion and rail & road.

3	take a “group wide approach” towards safety which 

should see further improved safety performance and 
consistency in the standards applied. the Group oh&S 
platform development team will play a key role in 
driving this initiative.

4	Sharpen the focus on financial performance and the 

management of the company’s resources.

5	reinstitute the critical task of improving the 

company’s management information systems to 
a level necessary to match the company’s growth 
aspirations.

the company ended the year on the back of significantly 
improved performances across the Group and has a much 
more robust financial base from which to develop and 
pursue its strategies with even greater vigour over the 
next year and beyond.         

financial performance

during the past year, engenco achieved revenues of 
$199.3 million - an increase of $31.5 million or 18.8% 
over the previous year. net profit after tax attributable 
to ordinary members of $4.9 million represented a 
significant turnaround against the prior year result which 
was a $113.7 million loss.

When the effect of discontinued operations and one off 
adjustments are taken into consideration, the net profit 
after tax would have been $6.6 million.

the company undertook two major capital raisings during 
the year with a significant portion of the sums raised applied 
towards debt retirement. consequently, financial liabilities 
were reduced by $59.8 million from the previous year’s 
closing balance of $113.2 million down to $53.4 million. 
this resulted in the company’s gearing falling to a much 
more sustainable level of 21%. (previously this was 196%.)

engenco ended the year with a strong cash balance and 
subsequent to the year end, it also finalised a new facility 
with its primary banker (commonwealth bank) for a two 
year term. notwithstanding the vastly improved liquidity, 
ongoing vigilance will still be required to be exercised 
to ensure that working capital is optimised and cash 
resources are deployed in the most efficient manner.

mANAGING DIRECTOR'S REPORT

operations overview

drivetrain achieved an outstanding result with earnings 
growth more than doubling on that of the previous 
year coupled with a return to strong profitability. the 
mobile powertrain business stream benefitted from 
its exposure to the mining resources sector in both 
parts sales and mro (maintenance, repair and overall) 
workflow. in addition to the strong demand for hedemora 
diesel engine parts from defence customers, substantial 
progress was also made in expanding into the burgeoning 
natural gas industry. expansion into the maintenance and 
support of gas power generation sets and compression 
packages compliments drivetrain’s core heavy engine 
through life support capabilities. the hS turbo product 
offering continues to mature, sales and support 
capabilities grew during the year and the Sweden based 
test cell is now fully operational. establishment of sales 
and service presences in north and South america have 
begun to bear fruit with interest from the retro-fit market 
showing great promise. continued business integration 
and management system development initiatives have 
helped mature and rationalise management across 
australian and international operations. the business is 
now fully operational on the engenco Sap platform in all 
anZ and asian branches, with rollout to europe and uS 
sites planned in 2012.            

Similarly, Gemco rail went from a significant loss making 
position in the previous year to a return to profitability 
with revenue sales rising dramatically over the prior year. 
this much improved outcome resulted from re-focusing 
on core competencies and optimising the business 
to bring greater efficiencies and to better align with 
customer requirements and opportunities. this, along 
with eliminating poor margin activities contributed to the 
achievement of a base profit margin which can be built 
on in coming years. increased demand in wheel shop, 
bearing shop and other maintenance related service areas 
resulted in the forrestfield, Wa facility operating close to 
current maximum capacity. manufacture of 194 purpose 
built wagons for the imX project as well as multiple niche 
manufacturing and refurbishment orders ensured good 
fabrication throughput, and efficiency improvements 
driven by the introduction of lean manufacturing 
methodologies. the imX wagons will be leased to the 
customer for an initial five year period during which time 
Gemco will also undertake the ongoing maintenance 
under a separate maintenance arrangement. initiatives to 
integrate rail & road segment businesses have resulted 
in a merged accounting and administration function 
servicing Gemco, momentum, cert and Greentrains from 
the forrestfield site. this has rationalised the use of 
resources and captured associated efficiencies.

DriVetrain achieVeD an 
outStanDing reSult with earningS 
growth more than Doubling on 
that of the preViouS year

While revenue gains at Momentum Rail over the course 
of the year were very good, major improvements in the 
management of labour and other costs drove particularly 
impressive growth in the profitability of the operation.  
The re-establishment of core capability in Victoria, 
together with established relationships with key industry 
alliance partners contributed to the successful result.

Like the rest of the ongoing business operations, 
CERT also produced higher profits over the prior year 
notwithstanding some setbacks suffered during the 
second half with the loss of staff in the West Australian 
market. The business unit is set to benefit over the next 
year from contract wins with leading rail infrastructure 
companies along with further expansion of its training 
capability along the eastern seaboard.        

Convair posted major gains in both revenues and 
profitability. It maintained a strong pipeline of orders 
during the year and this trend has continued into 
the current year. Capital sales growth together with 
management of costs, improved efficiencies and 
innovative manufacturing techniques all provided the 
ingredients of what was an impressive return for the year.   

Following the disposal of loss making operations including 
FCD Logistics, Eden Cryogenics and Claw Environmental, 
the remaining core business operations were, on an EBIT 
basis, all profitable basis for the year.

Strategy & OutlOOk

Continuing to build on Group capability and capacity 
in the right areas is expected to anchor sustainable 
performance and to offer further growth opportunities 
by levering off and further building on our deep-seated 
engineering expertise and established market positions. 
Our capabilities in niche manufacturing, capital asset 
maintenance and enhancement, and parts distribution 
strategically places Group businesses exceptionally well 
to capture through-life-support opportunities on installed 
bases of customer equipment. This is reinforced by having 

08

established long-term relationships with both supply 
and customer partners, as well as possessing physical 
presences in key locations.

Driving the growth opportunities offered by our 
sustainable strategic position will take the form of:

	Expanding capacity in existing sites as well as 

establishment of new key locations, especially to meet 
demand in the rail maintenance and turbocharger 
support sectors.

	Capturing market opportunities brought about by 

proprietary intellectual property particularly through 
the HS Turbo product suite.

	Developing the market potential of our unique 

skills and product offerings in the gas power and 
compression sector.

	Participating in major resource and infrastructure 

projects.

Further investment in the development of our people 
both from a technical and commercial perspective will 
underpin our future success. The valuable contribution of 
our staff to what is clearly a turnaround of the Company’s 
fortunes is testament to their passion and dedication.

Corporate GovernanCe Statement

coRPoRate goveRnance Statement

engenco limited (”company”) and the board are committed to achieving compliance with all the best practice 
recommendations released by the australian Securities exchange corporate governance council. this statement outlines the 
main corporate governance practices in place throughout the financial year, with specific references made to any departures 
from the best practice recommendations. 

Role of the BoaRd

the role of the board is to protect and promote the interests of the company and to represent its shareholders whilst 
considering the interests of other stakeholders including employees, customers, suppliers, wider communities and the 
environment. it does this according to the principles of good corporate governance intending to fulfil the company’s 
responsibilities as a corporate citizen.

the board operates under a board charter; which describes the processes used by the board to:

}} appoint and review the performance of the managing Director/ceo;
}} approve key strategic decisions including, but not limited to, acquisitions and divestments;
}} approve annual revenue, operating expenditure, and capital budgets;
}} approve significant changes in organisational structure;
}} determine and approve the remuneration of the managing Director/ceo;
}} approve the remuneration of executive management, and
}} formally adopt any communication to regulators and shareholders as may be required by the company constitution, 

statute, or other regulation.

the board may change by resolution any power reserved to itself.

executive delegation

other than those matters reserved by the board to itself, the board delegates to the managing Director/ceo all authority 
to achieve the company’s objectives consistent with this governance charter, the company constitution, statute or other 
regulation.

the managing Director/ceo prepares a one year operational and financial plan for approval by the board. 

BoaRd StRuctuRe

the skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of each director who is in office at the date of the annual Report 
and their term of office are detailed in the Directors’ Report in this annual Report.

the names of the independent directors of the company are:

D hector, R Dunning

when determining whether a non-executive director is independent the director must not fail any of the following materiality 
thresholds:

}} less than 10% of company shares are held by the director or any other entity or individual directly or indirectly associated 

with the director;

}} no sales are made to or purchases made from any entity or individual directly or indirectly associated with the directors’, 

and

}} none of the directors’ income of an individual or entity directly or indirectly associated with the director is derived from a 

contract with any member of the economic entity other than income derived as a director of the entity.

18

EngEnco LimitEd (formErLy cootE industriaL Ltd) 2011 annuaL rEportCorporate GovernanCe Statement

the board reviews the independence of its directors in light of the information provided to it.

independent directors have the right to seek independent professional advice in the furtherance of their duties as directors 
at the company’s expense. written approval must be obtained from the board prior to incurring any expense on behalf of the 
company.

MeetingS of the BoaRd

the board meets on a regular pre-determined basis or more frequently as required. on the invitation of the board, members 
of senior management attend and make presentations at board meetings. in addition to the formal meetings the board 
regularly meets to consider important issues affecting the company.

the number of meetings held and attended by each of the directors for the financial year ended 30 June 2011 is set out in 
the Directors’ Report.

BoaRd MeMBeRShip

appointment

board members are nominated by the board and their appointment confirmed by a vote of shareholders. the board will have 
a minimum of one non-executive director who will be free of material relationships with the company and who would be 
reasonably considered by shareholders to be independent. 

the expectation of directors is that they will be of unquestioned integrity and honesty; will understand and behave to the 
highest standards of corporate governance and will be prepared to question, challenge, and criticise matters of strategy.

Directors will be appointed according to the contribution they can make in meeting strategic skill requirements of the 
company. Remuneration of directors will be transparent and reported in its entirety to shareholders.

Directors are expected to continue to develop their skills through ongoing education and training.

retirement and re-election

the constitution of the company requires one third of the directors, other than the managing Director, to retire from office 
at each annual general meeting. Directors who have been appointed by the board are required to retire from office at the 
next following annual general meeting and are not taken into account in determining the number of directors to retire at that 
annual general meeting.

Directors cannot hold office for a period in excess of three years beyond the third annual general meeting following their 
appointment without submitting themselves for re-election. Retiring directors are eligible for re-election by shareholders.

Board access to information and independent advice

all directors have unrestricted access to employees of the group and, subject to the law, access to all company records 
and information held by group employees and external advisors. each director may obtain independent professional advice 
to assist the director in the proper exercise of powers and discharge of duties as a director or as a member of a board 
committee. in such cases, the chairman and company Secretary must be advised and a copy of the advice made available to 
all directors.

Conflicts of interest

Directors are required to notify the board of any real or perceived conflicts of interest that may occur from time to time. the 
board has adopted the use of formal standing notices in which they disclose any material personal interests they have and 
the relationship with the affairs of the company. Directors are required to provide an updated notice if they acquire any new 
material personal interests or if there is any change to the nature and extent of their previously disclosed interest.

performance evaluation

to date a formal assessment of board performance has not taken place.

EngEnco LimitEd (formErLy cootE industriaL Ltd) 2011 annuaL rEportCorporate GovernanCe Statement

RewaRd and ReMuneRation

Reward and remuneration of directors and executives will be objectively linked to obtaining the company objectives and 
consistent with the financial performance of the company.

there will be transparency to shareholders regarding reward and remuneration of board members and senior executive 
management.

there are currently no schemes for retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation.

coMMitteeS

currently the board of engenco limited has formed a separate audit committee to assist it in exercising its responsibilities. 
given the size and stage of development of the company the board has not formed a nomination or Remuneration 
committee which is a departure from aSx best Practice Recommendation 2.4 and 8.2.

the audit committee monitors internal control policies and procedures designed to safeguard company assets and to 
maintain the integrity of financial reporting. the specific responsibilities set out in its charter include:

}} in conjunction with the internal and external auditors, assure the integrity of financial statements;
}} recommend to the board the appointment of and review the performance of the external auditor;
}} determine the remuneration of the external auditor;
}} oversee the integrity of the internal and external audit process, and
}} ensure there is a process to identify the likelihood and impact of financial risk and that this process is actively managed.

audit Committee

the members of the audit committee at the date of this report are:

D hector

R Dunning

Senior staff and any other persons considered appropriate, attend meetings of the audit committee by invitation. Details of 
the number of meetings held and attended by the members of the audit committee can be found in the Directors’ Report. 
the board has established a terms of Reference to guide the activities of the committee. the current composition of the 
audit committee does not meet aSx best Practice Recommendation 4.3 however the board believes that this is the most 
effective structure for the audit committee given the structure of the board itself.

financial RepoRting

consistent with aSx best Practice Recommendation 4.1, and in accordance with section 295a of the corporations act 2001, 
the company’s financial report preparation and approval process for the year ended 30 June 2011, involved both the chief 
executive officer and chief financial officer providing a written statement to the board that, in their opinion:

}} the company’s financial report presents a true and fair view of the company’s financial condition and operating results 

and is in accordance with applicable accounting standards, and

}} the company’s financial records for the financial year have been properly maintained in accordance with section 286 of 

the corporations act 2001.

audit goveRnance and independence

external auditors

bentleys are the company’s current external auditors. the performance of the external auditor is reviewed annually by the 
audit committee. bentleys were appointed as the external auditor in 2006. it is currently the company’s policy that no non-
audit services are provided by the external auditor to ensure independence is maintained. it is bentley’s policy to rotate audit 
engagement partners on listed companies at least every five years.

20

EngEnco LimitEd (formErLy cootE industriaL Ltd) 2011 annuaL rEportCorporate GovernanCe Statement

independence Declaration

the corporate law economic Reform Program (audit Reform and corporate Disclosure) act 2004 (“cleRP 9”) amendments 
to the corporations act 2001 require external auditors to make an annual independence declaration, addressed to the board, 
declaring that the auditors have maintained their independence in accordance with cleRP 9 amendments and the rules of 
the professional accounting bodies.

bentleys have provided such a declaration to the audit committee for the financial year ended 30 June 2011.

attendance of external auditors at annual General meetings

in accordance with aSx best Practice Recommendation 6.2 and the corporations act 2001, the company requires that 
bentleys attend the company’s annual general meeting and are available to answer questions about the conduct of the audit 
and the preparation and content of the audit report. Shareholders are asked to submit written questions to the company 
Secretary at least 5 days prior to the annual general meeting.

RiSk identification and ManageMent

the company is in the process of implementing policies regarding risk identification and management which are consistent 
with Principle 7 of the aSx corporate governance Principles and Recommendations.

ShaRe tRading policy

the company’s Share trading Policy objective among other things is to minimise the risk of insider trading in the company’s 
securities and in furtherance of the company’s commitment to the adoption of good corporate governance principles. the 
policy prohibits all employees, officers and directors of the company from trading in the company’s securities if they are in 
possession of “inside information”. Short term or speculative dealing in the company’s securities by employees, officers and 
directors is also not permitted. employees, officers and directors must not trade in the company’s securities during closed 
periods. trading is generally permitted at other times provided there is no contravention of the insider trading laws. the 
policy also restricts hedging and margin loan activities for employees, officers and directors. the company’s Share trading 
Policy is published on the company’s intranet.

continuouS diScloSuRe

the company understands and respects that timely disclosure of price sensitive information is central to the efficient 
operation of the australian Securities exchange’s securities market. the company Secretary has responsibility for overseeing 
and co-ordinating the disclosure. any disclosures are discussed with the board and appropriate action is taken.

coMMunicationS with ShaReholdeRS

the board is committed to completely discharge its obligation to represent the interests of shareholders.

the board will ensure that information is regularly communicated to shareholders, in particular, paying regard to the 
continuous disclosure requirements of the aSx. the board welcomes shareholder participation at the company’s annual 
general meeting. Shareholders are entitled to vote on significant matters impacting on the business, which include 
the election and remuneration of directors, changes to the constitution and receipt of the annual and interim financial 
statements. Shareholders are encouraged to attend and participate in the annual general meeting, to lodge questions to be 
responded by the board, and are able to appoint proxies.

remuneration policy

this report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of engenco, and other key executives (including 
the most highly remunerated executives) who have strategic commercial impact upon engenco’s activities.

the remuneration policy of engenco is intended to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business 
objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific incentives based on key performance areas 
affecting the consolidated group’s financial results. the board of engenco believes the approach to remunerating to 
be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the 
consolidated group.

the board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the 
consolidated group is as follows:

}} all executive directors and key executives receive a salary package comprised of a base salary, superannuation, and 

fringe benefits. in future, it is intended that packages will also include equity-based incentives.

}} the board will review executive packages annually by reference to the consolidated group’s performance, executive 

performance and comparable information from industry sectors.

}} the performance of executives is measured against criteria agreed annually with each executive and is based 

predominantly on the forecast growth of the consolidated group’s profits, which are aligned with shareholder value. 
the developing remuneration policy will be designed to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for 
performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth.

}} the executive directors and other key executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the 

government, which is currently 9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals, however, have 
chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation.

}} all remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at cost to the company and expensed. Shares granted to 

directors and executives are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by

performance Conditions linked to remuneration

the remuneration structure for key management personnel is based on a number of factors, including length of service, 
particular experience of the individual concerned, and overall performance of the company. the contracts for service 
between the company and key management personnel are on a continuing basis. 

Some of the key businesses emphasise payment for results by providing various cash bonus reward schemes based on 
internal KPis of both financial and non-financial targets. the objective of the reward scheme is to both reinforce the short 
and long-term goals of the key business and to provide a common interest between all staff. the basis of the bonus scheme 
is being developed across all entities of the consolidated group; it may be displaced or complimented by an employee equity 
incentive plan.

the employment conditions of key management personnel are formalised in contracts of employment. the employment 
contract does not stipulate a term of employment period but does stipulate a notice period for resignation and periods 
of remuneration and conditions under termination. termination payments are not payable on resignation or dismissal for 
serious misconduct. in the instance of serious misconduct the company can terminate employment at any time. 

relationship between remuneration policy and Company performances

there has been no relationship between previous company performance and the previous remuneration of key management 
personnel. current remuneration policies are under review.

the following table shows the gross revenue, profits and dividends for the last 5 years for engenco, as well as the share 
prices at the end of the respective financial years.

foR the YeaR enDeD 30 June 2011

1.  StateMent of Significant accounting policieS

this financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and notes of engenco limited and controlled entities 
(‘consolidated group’ or ‘group’).

Basis of preparation

the financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with australian accounting 
Standards, australian accounting interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements 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 financial 
report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. compliance with australian 
accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with international financial Reporting 
Standards. material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below and have been 
consistently applied unless otherwise stated.

the financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by 
the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

(a)  principles of Consolidation

the consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by engenco limited 
at the end of the reporting period. a controlled entity is any entity over which engenco limited has the power to govern 
the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity’s activities. control will generally exist when the 
parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting power of an entity. in assessing the 
power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are also considered.

where controlled entities have entered or left the group during the year, the financial performance of those entities are 
included only for the period of the year that they were controlled. a list of controlled entities is contained in note 15 – 
controlled entities. all controlled entities have a June financial year-end.

in preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the 
consolidated group have been eliminated on consolidation. accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where 
necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity.

non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are shown 
separately within the equity section of the consolidated Statement of financial Position and Statement of comprehensive 
income. the non-controlling interests in the net assets comprise their interests at the date of the original business 
combination and their share in equity since that date.

Business Combinations

business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses and results in the consolidation 
of its assets and liabilities.

a business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities 
or businesses under common control. the acquisition method requires that for each business combination one of the 
combining entities must be identified as the acquirer (i.e. parent entity). the business combination will be accounted for as 
at the acquisition date, which is the date that control over the acquiree is obtained by the parent entity. at this date, the 
parent shall recognise, in the consolidated accounts, and subject to certain limited exceptions, the fair value of the identifiable 
assets acquired and liabilities assumed. in addition, contingent liabilities of the acquiree will be recognised where a present 
obligation has been incurred and its fair value can be reliably measured.

the acquisition may result in the recognition of goodwill - refer to note 1(i) - or a gain from a bargain purchase. the method 
adopted for the measurement of goodwill will impact on the measurement of any non-controlling interest to be recognised in 
the acquiree where less than 100% ownership interest is held in the acquiree.

1.  Statement of Significant accounting PolicieS (cont’d)

(a)  Principles of Consolidation (cont'd)

Business Combinations (cont'd)

The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date fair 
value of any previously held equity interest shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial statements. 
Consideration may comprise the sum of the assets transferred by the acquirer, liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the 
former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the acquirer.

Fair value uplifts in the value of pre-existing equity holdings are taken to the statement of comprehensive income. Where 
changes in the value of such equity holdings had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income, such amounts 
are recycled to profit or loss.

Included in the measurement of consideration transferred is any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration 
arrangement. Any obligation incurred relating to contingent consideration is classified as either a financial liability or 
equity instrument, depending upon the nature of the arrangement. Rights to refunds of consideration previously paid are 
recognised as a receivable. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured 
and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or a liability is 
remeasured each reporting period to fair value through the statement of comprehensive income unless the change in value 
can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the statement of comprehensive 
income.

(b)  Income Tax

The 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 profit 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.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as 
well as unused tax losses.

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when 
the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.

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 financial 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, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit 
or loss.

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 is settled, based on the tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. 
Their measurement also reflects 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 profit will be available against which the benefits 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.

(b)  income tax (cont'd)

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 significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

Tax Consolidation

engenco limited and its wholly-owned australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax 
consolidation legislation. each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such 
taxes are measured using the ‘stand-alone taxpayer’ approach to allocation. current tax liabilities (assets) and deferred tax 
assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in the subsidiaries are immediately transferred to the head entity. the 
group notified the australian tax office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 31 october 2007. 
the tax consolidated group has entered into a tax funding arrangement whereby each company in the group contributes 
to the income tax payable by the group in proportion to their contribution to the group’s taxable income. Differences 
between the amounts of net tax assets and liabilities derecognised and the net amounts recognised pursuant to the funding 
arrangement are recognised as either a contribution by, or distribution to the head entity.

(c)  inventories

inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. the cost of finished goods includes direct materials, 
direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. costs are assigned on the basis of weighted 
average costs.

the cost of raw materials includes all costs to transport the goods to a location ready for use including any duties and 
charges on items purchased overseas.

a review of inventory was completed at year end to identify items to be classed as non-current. non-current inventory is 
defined as inventory not expected to be utilised in the next financial year. the majority of items identified were long life 
locomotive spares which require refurbishment prior to use.

(d)  Construction Contracts and work in progress

construction work in progress is valued at cost, plus profit recognised to date less any provision for anticipated future losses. 
cost includes both variable and fixed costs relating to specific contracts, and those that are attributable to the contract 
activity in general and that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

construction profits are recognised on the stage of completion basis and measured using the proportion of costs incurred to 
date as compared to expected actual costs. where losses are anticipated they are provided for in full.

construction revenue has been recognised on the basis of the terms of the contract adjusted for any variations or claims 
allowable under the contract.

work in progress is valued at cost. cost includes both variable and fixed costs relating to specific projects, and those that are 
attributable to the project activity in general and that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

(e)  property, plant and equipment

each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less accumulated depreciation and, where 
applicable, any impairment losses.

Property

freehold land and buildings are shown at their cost (being the consideration paid plus any additional direct costs), less 
subsequent depreciation for buildings.

EngEnco LimitEd (formErLy cootE industriaL Ltd) 2011 annuaL rEportNotes to the FiNaNcial statemeNts1.  StateMent of Significant accounting policieS (cont’d)

(e)  property, plant and equipment (cont'd)

Property (cont'd)

increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to a revaluation reserve in equity. 
Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against fair value reserves directly in equity; all other 
decreases are charged to the income statement. each year the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying 
amount of the asset charged to the income statement and depreciation based on the asset’s original cost is transferred from 
the revaluation reserve to retained earnings.

any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the 
net amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset.

Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and, where applicable, any impairment losses. the 
carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by the directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable 
amount from these assets. the recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be 
received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. the expected net cash flows have been discounted to their 
present values in determining recoverable amounts.

the cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing 
costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. 

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when 
it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can 
be measured reliably. all other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the 
financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

the depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is 
depreciated on a diminishing value over their useful lives to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is 
held ready for use. leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or 
the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

the depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

class of fixed asset

Depreciation Rate

leasehold improvements

Plant and equipment

leased plant and equipment

buildings

40% - 67%

2.5% - 67%

30% - 67%

2.50%

the assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance date. 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 and losses are 
included in the statement of comprehensive income. when revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation 
reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

43

EngEnco LimitEd (formErLy cootE industriaL Ltd) 2011 annuaL rEportNotes to the FiNaNcial statemeNts1.  StateMent of Significant accounting policieS (cont’d)

(f)  leases

lease of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the assets, but not the 
legal ownership that is transferred to entities in the consolidated group, are classified as finance 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 diminishing value basis over their estimated useful lives or the lease term.

lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as 
expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

(g)  financial instruments

Initial Recognition and Measurement

financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the 
instrument. for financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale 
of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).

financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs, except where the instrument is classified ‘at 
fair value through profit or loss’, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. 

Classification and Subsequent Measurement

financial instruments are subsequently measured at their 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. when quoted prices are available in an active market they are used to determine fair value. in 
other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted.

amortised cost is calculated as:

(1) 

the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition;

(2) 

less principal repayments;

(3)  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

(4) 

less any reduction for 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 costs 
and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) 
of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future 
net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense 
in profit or loss.

the group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the 
requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.

Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit and Loss

financial assets are classified at fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading for the purpose of short 
term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting 
mismatch. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in profit or loss in the 
period in which they arise.

44

EngEnco LimitEd (formErLy cootE industriaL Ltd) 2011 annuaL rEportNotes to the FiNaNcial statemeNts1.  StateMent of Significant accounting policieS (cont’d)

(g)  financial instruments (cont'd)

Loans and Receivables

loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed 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. all other loans and receivables are classified as non-current assets.

Held-to-Maturity Investments

held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable 
payments, and it is the group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. they are subsequently measured at 
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Available-for-Sale Financial Assets

available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other 
categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. they comprise investments 
in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.

Financial Liabilities

non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial 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 each reporting date, the group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. 
in the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to 
determine whether impairment has arisen. impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 

Financial Guarantees

where material, financial guarantees issued, which require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for 
a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due, are recognised as a financial liability at fair value 
on initial recognition. 

the guarantee is subsequently measured at the higher of the best estimate of the obligation and the amount initially 
recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation in accordance with aaSb 118: Revenue. where the entity gives 
guarantees in exchange for a fee, revenue is recognised under aaSb 118.

the fair value of financial guarantee contracts has been assessed using a probability weighted discounted cash flow 
approach. the probability has been based on:

}} the likelihood of the guaranteed party defaulting in a year period;
}} the proportion of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered due to the guaranteed party defaulting; and
}} the maximum loss exposed if the guaranteed party were to default.

Derecognition

financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to 
another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated 
with the asset. financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. the 
difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value 
of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

(h)  impairment of assets

at each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether 
there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. if such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, 
being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared 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.

impairment testing is performed at least annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. 

where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable 
amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

(i) 

intangibles

Goodwill

goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum of:

(1) 

the consideration transferred;

(2)  any non-controlling interest; and

(3)  the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable 

assets acquired.

the value of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the group holds less than a 100% interest 
measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree using the proportionate interest method. 

Refer to note 17 – intangible assets for information on the goodwill policy adopted by the group for acquisitions.

goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. 

goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the group’s cash generating units or groups of cash generating 
units, which represent the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored but where such level is not larger than an operating 
segment. gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill related to the entity sold.

changes in the ownership interests in a subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions and do not affect the carrying 
values of goodwill.

Customer Related Intangibles

customer related intangibles are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and, where applicable, any impairment losses.

Patents and Trademarks

Patents and trademarks are recognised at cost of acquisition. Patents and trademarks have a finite life and are carried at 
cost less any accumulated amortisation and, where applicable, any impairment losses. Patents and trademarks are amortised 
over their useful life.

Other Identifiable Intangibles

other intangibles are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and, where applicable, any impairment losses. at balance 
date the amount in other identifiable intangibles can be attributed to the value applied to Rail access on acquisition.

Research and Development

expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are 
capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these 
benefits can be measured reliably. 

Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over 
the useful life of the project.

(j)  foreign Currency transactions and Balances

Functional and Presentation Currency

the functional currency of each of the group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment 
in which that entity operates. the consolidated financial statements are presented in australian dollars which is the parent 
entity’s functional and presentation currency.

Transaction and Balances

foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the 
transaction. foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. non-monetary items measured at 
historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. non-monetary items measured at 
fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, 
except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent 
that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the statement of 
comprehensive income.

Group Companies

the financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group’s presentation 
currency are translated as follows:

}} assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;
}} income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and
}} retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s foreign currency 
translation reserve in the statement of comprehensive income. these differences are recognised in the statement of 
comprehensive income in the period in which the operation is disposed.

(k)  employee Benefits

Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance 
date. employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be 
paid when the liability is settled. 

(l)  provisions

Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is 
probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. 

(m)  provision for warranties

Provision is made in respect of the consolidated group’s estimated liability on all products and services under warranty at 
balance date. the future cash flows have been estimated by reference to the consolidated group’s history of warranty claims. 

(n)  Cash and Cash equivalents

cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments 
with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. bank overdrafts are shown within short-term 
borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

47

EngEnco LimitEd (formErLy cootE industriaL Ltd) 2011 annuaL rEportNotes to the FiNaNcial statemeNts1.  StateMent of Significant accounting policieS (cont’d)

(o)  revenue and other income

Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts 
and volume rebates allowed.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery or as contractually negotiated as this corresponds to 
the transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.

Revenue recognition relating to the provision of services is determined with reference to the stage of completion of the 
transaction at reporting date and where the outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably. Stage of completion is 
determined with reference to the services performed to date as a percentage of total anticipated services to be performed. 
where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that related expenditure is 
recoverable.

Revenue relating to construction activities is detailed in note 1(d).

interest revenue is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest rate method.

all revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (gSt).

(p)  trade and other payables

trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services 
received by the group during the reporting period which remains unpaid. the balance is recognised as a current liability.

(q)  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 the income statement in the period in which they are incurred.

(r)  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 office. 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 financial Position are shown inclusive  
of gSt. 

cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the gSt component of investing and 
financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(s)  Comparative figures

when required by accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for 
the current financial year. 

when the group applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its 
financial statements, a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed.

(t)  rounding of amounts

the parent entity has applied the relief available to it under aSic class order 98/100 and accordingly, amounts in the 
financial report and directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest $1,000.

(u)  Critical accounting estimates and Judgments

Goodwill and Intangibles

Significant judgments are made with respect to identifying and valuing intangible assets on acquisitions of new businesses. 
the group assesses impairment of intangibles at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the group that may 
lead to impairment of assets. where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. value-
in-use and fair value calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates which 
can be found in note 17 – intangible assets.

Income Tax

balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, are based on the best estimates of 
directors. these estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the company as they pertain to 
current income taxation legislation, and the directors’ understanding thereof. no adjustment has been made for pending or 
future taxation legislation. the current income tax position represents the directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by 
taxable authorities in relevant jurisdictions. further details can be found in notes 4 – income tax expense and note 21 - tax.

Impairment

the group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events specific to the 
group that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-
use and fair value calculations which incorporate various key assumptions. 

with respect to cash flow projections for the impairment testing of goodwill, a growth rate to reflect business efficiencies 
and market growth opportunities have been factored into valuation models for the next five years. additional allowance for 
inflation has been factored into all valuation models. Pre-tax discount rates of 23.5% have been used in all models.

Property, plant and equipment were assessed for impairment with reference to fair value less cost to sell. this is reflected in 
note 16 – Property, Plant and equipment.

Net, Realisable Value – inventory and WIP

inventory and wiP value was determined using the net realisable value, where the cost was in excess of this value. this is 
reflected in note 13 – inventories.

Environmental Issues

balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental 
legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. at the current stage of the company’s development and its current 
environmental impact the directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate.

(v)  new accounting Standards for application in future periods

the aaSb has issued new and amended accounting standards and interpretations that have mandatory application dates 
for future reporting periods. the group has decided against early adoption of these standards. a discussion of those future 
requirements and their impact on the group follows:

}} aaSb 9: financial instruments (December 2010) (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 

January 2013).
these standards are applicable retrospectively and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement 
of financial instruments, as well as recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments. the group has 
not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements.

(v)  new accounting Standards for application in future periods (cont'd)

the changes made to accounting requirements include:

- 

- 

- 

- 

- 

- 

- 

simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;

simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives;

removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets;

 removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised 
cost;

 allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity 
instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments 
that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on 
disposal of the instrument; 

 reclassifying financial assets where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified 
based on:

(a)  the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and

(b)  the characteristics of the contractual cash flows; and

 requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in 
its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income, except when that would 
create an accounting mismatch. if such a mismatch would be created or enlarged, the entity is required to present 
all changes in fair value (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.

}} aaSb 1053: application of tiers of australian accounting Standards and aaSb 2010–2: amendments to australian 

accounting Standards arising from Reduced Disclosure Requirements [aaSb 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 101, 102, 107, 108, 110, 111, 112, 
116, 117, 119, 121, 123, 124, 127, 128, 131, 133, 134, 136, 137, 138, 140, 141, 1050 & 1052 and interpretations 2, 4, 5, 15, 17, 127, 
129 & 1052] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 July 2013).
aaSb 1053 establishes a revised differential financial reporting framework consisting of two tiers of financial reporting 
requirements for those entities preparing general purpose financial statements:

tier 1: australian accounting Standards; and

tier 2: australian accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements.

tier 2 of the framework comprises the recognition, measurement and presentation requirements of tier 1, but contains 
significantly fewer disclosure requirements.

the following entities are required to apply tier 1 reporting requirements (i.e. full ifRS):

•

for-profit	private	sector	entities	that	have	public	accountability;	and

the	Australian	Government	and	state,	territory	and	local	governments.

Since the group is a for-profit private sector entity that has public accountability, it does not qualify for the reduced 
disclosure requirements for tier 2 entities.

aaSb 2010–2 makes amendments to australian accounting Standards and interpretations to give effect to the reduced 
disclosure requirements for tier 2 entities. it achieves this by specifying the disclosure paragraphs that a tier 2 entity 
need not comply with as well as adding specific “RDR” disclosures.

and interpretations 2, 4, 16, 1039 & 1052] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 
2011).
this standard makes a number of editorial amendments to a range of australian accounting Standards and 
interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of international financial Reporting 
Standards by the iaSb. the standard also amends aaSb 8 to require entities to exercise judgment in assessing whether 
a government and entities known to be under the control of that government are considered a single customer for the 
purposes of certain operating segment disclosures. these amendments are not expected to impact the group.

}} aaSb 2010–4: further amendments to australian accounting Standards arising from the annual improvements Project 
[aaSb 1, aaSb 7, aaSb 101 & aaSb 134 and interpretation 13] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or 
after 1 January 2011).
this Standard details numerous non-urgent but necessary changes to accounting Standards arising from the iaSb’s 
annual improvements project. Key changes include:

•	

•	

•	

clarifying	the	application	of	AASB	108	prior	to	an	entity’s	first	Australian-Accounting-Standards	financial	statements;

	adding	an	explicit	statement	to	AASB	7	that	qualitative	disclosures	should	be	made	in	the	context	of	the	
quantitative disclosures to better enable users to evaluate an entity’s exposure to risks arising from financial 
instruments;

	amending	AASB	101	to	the	effect	that	disaggregation	of	changes	in	each	component	of	equity	arising	from	
transactions recognised in other comprehensive income is required to be presented, but is permitted to be 
presented in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes;

•	

adding	a	number	of	examples	to	the	list	of	events	or	transactions	that	require	disclosure	under	AASB	134;	and

•	 making	sundry	editorial	amendments	to	various	Standards	and	Interpretations.

this Standard is not expected to impact the group.

on or after 1 January 2011).
this Standard makes numerous editorial amendments to a range of australian accounting Standards and interpretations, 
including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of ifRSs by the iaSb. however, these editorial amendments 
have no major impact on the requirements of the respective amended pronouncements.

}} aaSb 2010–6: amendments to australian accounting Standards – Disclosures on transfers of financial assets [aaSb 1 & 

aaSb 7] (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011).
this Standard adds and amends disclosure requirements about transfers of financial assets, especially those in respect 
of the nature of the financial assets involved and the risks associated with them. accordingly, this Standard makes 
amendments to aaSb 1: first-time adoption of australian accounting Standards, and aaSb 7: financial instruments: 
Disclosures, establishing additional disclosure requirements in relation to transfers of financial assets.

this Standard is not expected to impact the group.

}} aaSb 2010–7: amendments to australian accounting Standards arising from aaSb 9 (December 2010) [aaSb 1, 3, 4, 5, 7,

to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).
this Standard makes amendments to a range of australian accounting Standards and interpretations as a consequence 
of the issuance of aaSb 9: financial instruments in December 2010. accordingly, these amendments will only apply when 
the entity adopts aaSb 9.

as noted above, the group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements from adopting aaSb 9.

}} aaSb 2010–8: amendments to australian accounting Standards – Deferred tax: Recovery of underlying assets [aaSb 

112] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012).

this Standard makes amendments to aaSb 112: income taxes.

the amendments brought in by this Standard introduce a more practical approach for measuring deferred tax liabilities and 
deferred tax assets when investment property is measured using the fair value model under aaSb 140: investment Property.

under the current aaSb 112, the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets depends on whether 
an entity expects to recover an asset by using it or by selling it. the amendments introduce a presumption that an 
investment property is recovered entirely through sale. this presumption is rebutted if the investment property is held 
within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the 
investment property over time, rather than through sale.

the amendments brought in by this Standard also incorporate interpretation 121 into aaSb 112.

the amendments are not expected to impact the group.

the group does not anticipate the early adoption of any of the above australian accounting Standards.

(w)  prior year Correction

Statement of Comprehensive Income

}} ‘Repairs and maintenance’ of $6.55 million was incorrectly disclosed in the 2010 annual Report and has been reclassified 

into ‘other expenses’ in the 2011 annual Report comparative. this reclassification has a nil impact on the profit result of 
the group. Refer to table below.

}} ‘income tax expense’ of $2.76 million was previously overstated and has been corrected in the 2011 annual Report 

comparative. this correction has resulted in a decrease in the reported 2010 group loss from $116.47 million to $113.71 
million. Refer to table below.
Statement of Financial Position

}} Due to the overstatement of income tax expense noted above the ‘deferred tax liability’ was also overstated by $2.76 

million and the reserve was understated by the same amount in the 2010 annual Report and has been corrected in the 
2011 annual Report comparative. Refer to table below.

(b)  provision for impairment of receivables

current trade and term receivables are non-interest bearing loans and generally on 30 day terms. non-current trade and 
term receivables are assessed for recoverability based on the underlying terms of the contract. a provision for impairment is 
recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual trade or term receivable is impaired. these amounts have been 
included in other expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.

movement in the provision for impairment of receivables is as follows:

the following table details the group’s trade and other receivables exposed to credit risk with ageing analysis and impairment 
provided thereon. amounts are considered as ‘past due’ when the debt has not been settled, within the terms and conditions 
agreed between the group and the customer or counter party 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 specific circumstances 
indicating that the debt may not be fully repaid to the group.

the balances of receivable that remain within initial trade terms (as detailed in the table) are considered to be of high credit 
quality.

in determining the recoverability of a trade receivable, the group considers any change in the credit quality of the trade 
receivable from the date credit was initially granted up to the reportable date. the concentration of credit risk is limited 
to the customer base being large and unrelated. accordingly, the directors believe that there is no further credit provision 
required in excess of the allowance for doubtful debts.

intangible assets, other than goodwill, have finite useful lives. the current amortisation charges for intangible assets are 
included under depreciation and amortisation expense in the statement of comprehensive income. goodwill has an infinite 
useful life.

(a)  impairment tests for Cash Generating units Containing Goodwill

for the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the consolidated group’s key businesses which represent the 
lowest level within the consolidated group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes as follows:

the recoverable amount of the cash generating units is based on value in use and fair value calculations. the calculations use 
cash flow projections based on the following year’s budget and plan, extended over a period of 5 years using a growth factor 
relevant to the sector and business plan. a pre-tax discount rate is applied adjusted for the risk of the industry in which each 
unit operates.

(b)  Key assumptions used for value in use Calculations

a growth rate to reflect business efficiencies and market growth opportunities has been used to extrapolate cash flows. the 
growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the business in which the cash generating units operate.

a pre-tax discount rate of 23.5% has been applied to discount the forecast future attributable pre-tax cash flows. the 
discount rate reflects specific risks relating to the relevant cash generating units in their country of operation.

the recoverable amount of each cash generating unit exceeds the carrying amount of the gross assets of that unit.

(c)  Sensitivity analysis

with respect to cash flow projections, a growth rate to reflect business efficiencies and market growth opportunities have 
been factored into valuation models for the next five years. based on sensitivities to the resulting ebit projections, the 
following table represents potential incremental impairment of goodwill, based on 5% and 10% reductions to projected ebit.

a provision of $2.86 million recognised in the 2009/2010 financial year for the balance of the purchase price payable to the 
previous owner of turbomeca has subsequently been reduced by a payment of $0.85 million on achieving a targeted level of 
sales. at balance date the remaining provision of $2.01 million for the balance payable has been provided on the expectation 
of meeting future sales targets.

O’Connor Lease

a provision of $0.7 million was recognised in the 2009/2010 financial year for future site lease payments in the discontinued 
operation fcD logistics Pty ltd. During the 2010/2011 financial year $0.52 million was utilised. the balance of $0.18 million 
was increased by $0.14 million to $0.32 million to cover an agreed one-off payment to release the company from all future 
lease obligations.

Site Restoration Provision

a provision of $1.35 million was recognised in the 2009/2010 financial year for future costs in meeting property restoration 
obligations for the container depot operations of fcD logistics Pty ltd. following the completion during the 2010/2011 
financial year of an independent baseline environmental assessment the provision has been reduced to $0.16 million based 
on the current estimation of restoration costs to be incurred.

Provision for Long-term Employee Benefits

a provision has been recognised for employee entitlements relating to long service leave. in calculating the present value of 
future cash flows in respect of long service leave, the probability of long service leave being taken is based on historical data.

Segment information

Identification of Reportable Segments

the group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the board of 
Directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.

the group is managed primarily on the basis of service offerings since the diversification of the group’s operations inherently 
have notably different risk profiles and performance assessment criteria. operating segments are therefore determined on 
the same basis.

Types of Products and Services by Segment

the chief operating decision makers consider the business from a business line perspective and have identified nine (9) 
reportable segments as follows:

(a)  Convair

convair is a manufacturer of bulk pneumatic road tankers and mobile silos for the carriage and storage of construction 
materials, grains, and other dry bulk materials. additional services include maintenance, repair and overhaul and provisioning 
of ancillary equipment and spare parts sales.

(b)  Drivetrain power and propulsion

Drivetrain Power and Propulsion is a provider of technical sales and services to the mining, oil & gas, rail, transport, defence, 
marine, construction, materials handling, automotive, agriculture, and power generation industries. a broad product and 
service offering includes engine and powertrain maintenance, repair and overhaul, new components and parts, fluid 
connector products, power generation design and construction, technical support, professional engineering and training 
services.

(c)  Gemco rail

gemco Rail specialise in the remanufacture and repair of locomotives, wagons, bearings and other rail products for rail 
operators and maintainers. gemco provides wheel-set, bogie and in-field wagon maintenance and manufactures new and 
refurbished wagons, bogie component parts, customised remote controlled ballast car discharge gates; and a range of rail 
maintenance equipment and spares.

(d)  Cert

centre for excellence in Rail training provides specialist rail training including the provision of competency based training; 
issuing of certificates of competency; rail incident investigation training; security (transit guard) training; first aid training; 
company inductions and course design and management of apprenticeship and trainee schemes to major infrastructure and 
rail clients throughout australia.

(e)  momentum

momentum is a provider of personnel and project management services to freight rail and mining rail infrastructure 
managers. Services include professional recruitment, training and workforce solutions, including managing and provisioning 
track construction and maintenance projects.

outputs, agricultural and industrial equipment. 

(g)  Coote investments

(h)  Greentrains

greentrains leases rollingstock to freight rail operators throughout australia.

(i)  all other Segments

this includes the parent entity and consolidation / elimination adjustments. 

Basis of Accounting for Purposes of Reporting by Operating Segments

(a)  accounting policies adopted

unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to 
operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the 
annual financial statements of the group.

(b)  inter-segment Sransactions

an internal transfer price is set for all inter-segment sales. this price is set based on what would be realised in the event 
the sale was made to an external party at arm’s length. all such transactions are eliminated on consolidation of the group’s 
financial statements.

(c)  Segment assets

unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, deferred tax assets have not been allocated to operating segments.

(d)  Segment liabilities

liabilities are allocated to segments where there is nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of 
the segment. unless indicated otherwise in the segment liabilities note, deferred tax liabilities have not been allocated to 
operating segments.

(e)  unallocated items

the following items of expenses, assets and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered 
part of the core operations of any segment:

}} finance costs
}} goodwill impairment
}} impairment of property, plant and equipment
}} Deferred tax assets and liabilities

i.  treasury risk management

management consisting of senior executives of the group discusses and monitors financial risk exposure and evaluates 
treasury management strategies in the context of current economic conditions and forecasts. management’s overall risk 
management strategy seeks to assist the consolidated group in meeting its financial targets, whilst minimising potential 
adverse effects on financial performance. management operates under the supervision of members of the board of Directors. 
Risk management transactions are approved by senior management personnel. this includes the use of hedging derivative 
instruments and decisions in relation to sources of future funding.

ii.  financial risk exposures and management

the main risks the group is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, liquidity 
risk and credit risk.

a. 

Interest Rate Risk

exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial liabilities recognised at reporting date whereby a future change in interest 
rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments.

currently the groups’ operations are financed using a mixture of fixed and floating debt. the group is not currently entered 
into any interest rate swaps to fix its floating rate debt.

the variable interest rate borrowings exposes the group to interest rate risk which will impact future cash flows and interest 
charges and is indicated by the following floating interest rate financial liabilities:

ii.  financial risk exposures and management (cont'd)

b.  Liquidity Risk

liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting 
its obligations related to financial liabilities. the group manages this risk through the following mechanisms:

}} preparing forward looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities
}} monitoring undrawn credit facilities 
}} obtaining funding from a variety of sources
}} managing credit risk related to financial assets
}} comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with the realisation profile of financial assets

the tables below reflect an undiscounted contractual maturity analysis for financial liabilities. 

cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectations as to the timing of realisation. actual timing may 
therefore differ from that disclosed. the timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflects the 
earliest contractual settlement dates and does not reflect management’s expectations that banking facilities will be rolled 
forward.

Defaults and Breaches

as a consequence of its earnings results in the first half of the reporting period the group was operating outside two of its 
financial covenants in respect to its facilities with the commonwealth bank of australia as at 30 June 2011.

ii.  financial risk exposures and management (cont'd)

c.  Foreign Exchange Risk

exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to 
movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the group holds financial instruments which are other than the 
auD functional currency of the group.

the group currently undertakes some hedging against the potential impact of this risk on its operations.

the majority of financial liabilities and assets of the group are denominated in the functional currency of the operational 
location. these are primarily australian Dollars and Swedish Krona.

d.  Credit Risk

exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from potential non-performance by counter parties of contract 
obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the group.

credit risk is managed through the maintenance of procedures (such procedures include monitoring of exposures, payment 
cycles and monitoring of the financial stability of significant customers and counter parties) ensuring to the extent possible, 
that customers and counter parties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness. Such monitoring is used in assessing 
receivables for impairment. credit terms differ between each key business but are generally 30 to 60 days.

where the group is unable to ascertain a satisfactory credit risk profile in relation to a customer or counter party, then risk 
may be further managed through title retention clauses over goods or obtaining security by way of personal or commercial 
guarantees over assets of sufficient value which can be claimed against in the event of any default.

Credit Risk Exposures

the maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at balance date, excluding the value of any 
collateral or security held, is equivalent to the carrying value and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) 
as presented in the balance sheet.

on a geographical basis the group has significant credit risk exposures in australia given the substantial operations in this 
region. Details with respect of the credit risk of trade and other Receivables can be found in note 12.

trade and other receivables that are neither past due or impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. aggregates of 
such amounts are detailed in note 12.

balances held with banks are with aa rated financial institutions, details of these holdings can be found in note 11.

iii.  net fair values

the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the following table and can be compared to their 
carrying values as presented in the balance sheet. fair values are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or a 
liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction.

fair values derived may be based on information that is estimated or subject to judgment, where changes in assumptions 
may have a material impact on the amounts estimated. areas of judgment and the assumptions have been detailed 
below. where possible, valuation information used to calculate fair value is extracted from the market, with more reliable 
information available from markets that are actively traded. in this regard, fair values for listed securities are obtained from 
quoted market bid prices.

the fair values disclosed in the above table have been determined based on the following methodologies:

}} Cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables are short-term instruments in nature whose 
carrying value is equivalent to fair value. Trade and other payables exclude amounts provided for relating to annual leave which is 
not considered a financial instrument.

}} Loans and receivables have carrying values equivalent to fair value. The majority of these facilities have floating rates and those 
that are fixed are expected to be held to maturity and as such when discounted bear little resemblance to the carrying value.

}} For other assets, closing quoted bid prices at reporting date are used where appropriate.

iv.  Sensitivity analysis

a. 

Interest Rate Risk and Foreign Currency Risk

the following table illustrates sensitivities to the group’s exposures to changes in interest rates and exchange rates. the table 
indicates the impact on how profit and equity values reported at balance date would have been affected by changes in the 
relevant risk variable that management considers to be reasonably possible. these sensitivities assume that the movement in 
a particular variable is independent of other variables.
