1. INTRODUCTION
This 2011 Corporate Governance Statement (“Statement”) sets out the key corporate governance principles adopted by the directors in governing
Amalgamated Holdings Limited (“Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “AHL” or “Group”) and reflects the corporate governance
policies and procedures which applied during the financial year ended 30 June 2011.
The Company continues to monitor and review its corporate governance policies and procedures.
2. APPROACH TO CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
2.1 Framework and approach to corporate governance and responsibility
The Board has the responsibility for ensuring AHL is properly managed so as to protect and enhance shareholders’ interests in a manner that is
consistent with AHL’s responsibility to meet its obligations to all stakeholders. For this reason, the Board is committed to maintaining the highest
standards of corporate governance across the Group. The Board believes that corporate governance is about having a set of values and behaviours
that underpin AHL’s everyday activities and which ensure transparency, risk management, accountability, value creation, fair dealing and protection of
the interests of stakeholders. Consistent with this belief, the Board’s approach is to consider corporate governance within the broader framework of
corporate responsibility and regulatory oversight.
2.2 Compliance with the Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations
The Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) has issued the ASX Listing Rules which require listed companies to include in their annual report a
statement disclosing the extent to which they have followed the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and
Recommendations (“Recommendations”) in the reporting period. Listed companies must identify the Recommendations that have not been followed
and provide reasons for the company’s decision. A table outlining the compliance, or otherwise, to the Recommendations has been included in
section 11 of this Statement.
The corporate governance page of the Company’s website (www.ahl.com.au) contains most of the documents which are referred to in this Statement.
The Statement, charters, code and various policies are regularly reviewed to take account of any recent changes in the law and governance practices.
If a shareholder does not have access to the internet, they may contact the Company Secretary for copies of the relevant documents.
3. BOARD
3.1 Role and responsibilities of the Board

management. Responsibilities are delineated by formal authority delegations. Senior executives reporting to the Managing Director have their roles
and responsibilities defined in position descriptions.

C O R P O R A T E G O V E R N A N C E S T A T E M E N T
3.2 Board processes
To assist in the execution of its responsibilities, the Board has in place an Audit Committee and a Nomination and Remuneration Committee. These
Committees have charters which are reviewed on a regular basis. Other Board Committees may be appointed from time to time to deal with issues
associated with the conduct of the Group’s various activities.
Recommendation 2.4 of the Recommendations states that the Board should establish a nomination committee. The Board has determined that any
recommendations required by a nomination committee are undertaken, as required, by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee.
The full Board holds at least nine scheduled meetings each year, including strategy meetings. Unscheduled meetings are arranged as necessary to
address any specific significant matters that may arise. Site visits are arranged on a regular basis to improve directors’ understanding of the Group’s
locations and operations.
The agenda for meetings is prepared in conjunction with the Chairman, Managing Director and Company Secretary. Standing items include the
Managing Director’s report, financial reports, strategic matters, governance and compliance. Submissions are circulated in advance. Executives are
regularly involved in Board discussions and directors have other opportunities, including visits to business operations, for contact with a wider group of
employees.
3.3 Composition of the Board
The composition of the Board is determined using the following principles:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
the Board should comprise of a majority of non-executive independent directors;
the Board should comprise of directors with a broad range of relevant expertise; and
the same individual should not exercise the role of Chairman and Managing Director.
The Chairman of the Board is a non-executive director. There is a Managing Director, who is also the Chief Executive Officer. It is standard practice
to have six non-executive directors, the majority of whom are deemed to be independent under the principles set out below. The composition of the
Board is reviewed periodically by the Chairman and the other directors to ensure that the Board has an appropriate mix of expertise and experience.
When a vacancy exists, through whatever cause, or where it is considered that the Board would benefit from the services of a new director with
particular skills, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee identifies suitable candidates with the appropriate expertise and experience and makes
a recommendation to the Board. The Board then appoints the most suitable candidate who must then stand for election at the next general meeting
of shareholders. Non-executive directors must stand for re-election each three years. The terms and conditions of the appointment and the
retirement of directors, including the Managing Director, are first considered by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and then recommended
for determination by the Board. A formal letter of appointment is provided to all incoming non-executive directors.
The Board considers that individually and collectively the directors bring a level of skill, knowledge and experience that enables the Board to
discharge its responsibilities effectively. Further information on the skills, experience and expertise of the directors has been included in section 10.1
of this Statement.
Details of the number of Board meetings and the attendance of the directors have been included in section 10.2 of this Statement.
3.4 Directors’ independence
The Board has considered specific principles in relation to a director’s independence. The Board has determined that an independent director is a
director who is not a member of management (a non-executive director) and who:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
is not a substantial shareholder of the Company or does not have a material beneficial interest in a substantial shareholder of the Company;
has not within the last three years been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or Group, or been a director after ceasing to hold
any such employment;
within the last three years has not been a principal or employee of a material professional advisor or a material consultant to the Company or
Group;
is not a material supplier or customer of the Company or Group, or an officer of or otherwise associated, directly or indirectly, with a material
supplier or customer;
must have no material contractual relationship with the Company or Group other than as a director of the Company; and
is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the
director’s ability to act in the best interests of the Company.
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
In forming this view, the Board has considered and determined that “material”, in this context, to be where any director related business relationship
has represented, or is likely in the future to represent, the lesser of at least 10% of the relevant segment’s or the director related business’s revenue.
The Board considered the nature of the relevant industries’ competition, and size and nature of each director related business relationship, in arriving
at this threshold.
Two directors of the Company are also directors of Carlton Investments Limited (“Carlton”), which is a substantial shareholder of the Company.
Carlton is a publicly listed company. Carlton’s main activity is the holding of a wide portfolio of listed investments. The Board has considered the
question of independence of the director of Carlton who does not have a substantial beneficial shareholding in his own right. The Board has
concluded that, as the nature of Carlton’s business is in no way similar to that of the businesses of the Group, the sole holding of a directorship in
Carlton should not impact on the ability and willingness of a director to effectively review and challenge the performance of management and exercise
independent and objective judgement for the benefit of all shareholders of the Company.

C O R P O R A T E G O V E R N A N C E S T A T E M E N T
3.5 Chairman and Managing Director
The Chairman is responsible for leading the Board, ensuring that Board activities are organised and effectively conducted and for ensuring directors
are properly briefed for meetings. The Managing Director is responsible for implementing Group strategies and policies.
Recommendation 2.2 of the Recommendations states that the Chairman should be an independent director. The Chairman, Mr AG Rydge, is not
considered an independent director due to the substantial shareholding clause. Mr Rydge was previously Chairman and Managing Director of the
Company until retiring from the position of Managing Director on 31 December 2001. The Board has determined that the chairmanship of Mr Rydge is
of significant benefit to the Company and Group due to his long standing contribution to, and association with, the Company and extensive knowledge
of the film, hospitality, leisure and tourism industries. Mr Rydge has been non-executive Chairman since 1 January 2002.
3.6 Conflict of interest
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the Company’s Constitution, directors give standing notice on appointment of any interest that
could potentially conflict with that of the Company or Group and must keep the Board advised of any changes. Where the Board believes a significant
conflict of interest exists, the director concerned does not receive the relevant Board papers and is not present at the meeting whilst the item is
considered.
3.7 Director education
The Company has a process to educate new directors about the nature of the business, current issues, corporate strategy and the Company’s
expectations of directors. All directors are made aware of their rights to access employees, information and resources. Directors are encouraged to
visit facilities of the Group and meet with management to gain a better understanding of business operations.
3.8 Independent professional advice
Each director has the right of access to all relevant Company information and to the Group’s executives and, subject to prior consultation with the
Chairman, may seek independent professional advice from a suitably qualified advisor at the Group’s expense. The director must consult with an
advisor suitably qualified in the relevant field, and obtain the Chairman’s approval of the fee payable for the advice before proceeding with the
consultation. A copy of the advice received by the director is made available to all other members of the Board.
3.9 Directors’ Retirement Plan
The Directors’ Retirement Plan was suspended in May 2003 and directors appointed to the Board after that date are not entitled to participate in the
plan.
Eligible directors in office prior to the suspension of the plan in May 2003 are able to participate in the plan. Subject to the Corporations Act 2001,
those eligible directors with more than three years service receive a retirement lump sum based on the length of service and the average of the fees
paid. The benefit is capped at a maximum lump sum per eligible director of $165,000.
The Chairman and Managing Director are not eligible to participate in the plan.
The total accrued retirement benefits for non-executive directors other than superannuation, and further details on directors’ remuneration, are
disclosed within the Remuneration Report.
4. AUDIT COMMITTEE
4.1 Role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee
The Audit Committee Charter sets out the Committee’s roles and responsibilities. Its primary responsibilities are to:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
review and monitor the financial integrity of the Group’s financial reports and statements;
review the adequacy and integrity of the Group’s financial risk management framework and system of internal control and the monitoring of the
various control processes;
ensure compliance with relevant laws, regulations and statutory obligations;
review and approve the internal and external audit work plans; and
review significant accounting changes or reporting issues.
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
The Committee reviews the performance of the external auditor on an annual basis and meets with them during the year to discuss a number of
matters including the external audit plan, proposed fees for audit work to be performed, half year and annual reporting and other matters as
necessary. The Audit Committee, in scheduled sessions at the end of each meeting, without the presence of management, addresses questions to
the external auditor and Group Internal Audit Manager on matters relating to the Committee’s responsibilities.
The Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board concerning the appointment of the external auditor including remuneration
and other terms of the auditor’s engagement. The Committee reviews and ensures that the level of any non-audit work carried out by the external
auditor is compatible with maintaining audit independence, taking into account the guidelines which it has set. The current practice, subject to
amendment in the event of legislative change, is for the rotation of the engagement partner to occur every five years, with the most recent rotation
having taken place in August 2006.
The Board receives the minutes and regular updates from the Chairman of the Committee, and reviews and approves the charter of the Committee.
A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is available from the Company’s website or upon request from the Company Secretary.

6. PERFORMANCE AND REMUNERATION
6.1 Board performance and remuneration
The Board reviews its performance annually to ensure that individual directors and the Board as a whole work efficiently and effectively in achieving

each director to discuss this assessment and any ideas for improvement. At this same time, directors are able to provide feedback on the
performance of the Chairman. The Board as a whole discusses and analyses its own performance during the year.
The Board also has in place an annual process to review its performance as well as the performance of the Board Committees. Each director
completes a performance evaluation questionnaire. The questionnaire covers topics including:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
the Board’s role;
composition and effectiveness;
procedures and practices;
behaviours;
Board administration; and
the conduct of the Chairman.
5 Amalgamated Holdings Limited – Annual Report 2011
C O R P O R A T E G O V E R N A N C E S T A T E M E N T
6.1 Board performance and remuneration (continued)
Directors are requested to provide comment and feedback and to evaluate each area by providing a rated response to various questions. The results
of the performance evaluation are collated by the Company Secretary and submitted to the Nomination and Remuneration Committee for review. A
summary of the results is then submitted to the full Board. The Board evaluation process was last completed in May 2011. The results of the
performance evaluation form the basis of an action plan designed to address performance improvement opportunities.
The Group’s remuneration philosophy and details of the current remuneration arrangements are outlined within the Remuneration Report. The
Remuneration Report confirms that the structure of non-executive director remuneration is separate and distinct from that of senior executive
remuneration.
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is responsible for recommending to the Board, fees applicable to non-executive directors. Non-
executive directors may also be reimbursed for their expenses properly incurred as a director, or in the course of their duties. Non-executive directors
are also encouraged to own shares in the Company. The non-executive directors do not participate in any other short or long term incentive schemes.
The maximum aggregate amount of fees that may be paid to all non-executive directors each year is capped at $1.5 million, which was approved by
shareholders at the 2010 Annual General Meeting of shareholders. The Board maintains a fee buffer to give it sufficient flexibility to plan its structure
in advance of specific needs that may arise. The total fees paid to non-executive directors during the reporting period were $851,710.
Information regarding the Directors’ Retirement Plan has been included at section 3.9 of this Statement, and disclosed within the Remuneration
Report.
6.2 Executive performance and remuneration
Each year, the Board, with the assistance of the Managing Director, and the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, undertake a formal process of
reviewing the performance of senior executives. The measures generally relate to the performance of the Group, the performance of the senior
executive’s division or department and the performance of the senior executive individually.
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the Board review the performance of the Managing Director. The Managing Director is not
present at the Nomination and Remuneration Committee or Board meetings when his own performance and remuneration are being considered.
For senior executives, the Managing Director conducts interviews with each executive and provides comments and feedback in relation to the senior
executive’s performance. A formal review process occurs for each employee with nominated supervisors conducting the performance review. The
formal review process occurs annually and was completed in June 2011. Further details on the assessment criteria for the Managing Director and
senior executive remuneration (including equity-based share plans) are disclosed within the Remuneration Report.
6.3 Remuneration Report
The Remuneration Report is set out with, and forms part of, the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2011.
7. RISK MANAGEMENT
7.1 Risk profile and oversight of the risk management system
The Board oversees the establishment, implementation and annual review of the Group’s risk management and internal control systems.
Management has established and implemented the systems for identifying, assessing, monitoring and managing material operational, financial
reporting, internal controls and compliance risks for the Group.
The systems and processes implemented to manage material risks include:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
risk management framework;
clearly defined management responsibilities and organisational structure;
delegated limits of authority;
treasury and accounting controls and reconciliations;
comprehensive management reporting systems;
budgeting and strategic planning processes;
segregation of duties;
physical security over the Group’s assets;
appropriate policies and procedures that are widely disseminated to, and understood by, employees; and
risk management and internal audit functions.
Divisional Managing Directors and other senior executives complete and sign off on an annual Directors’ Risk Management Questionnaire. The
operational and other compliance risk management procedures have also been assessed and found to be operating efficiently and effectively. All risk
assessments cover the whole financial year and the period up to the signing of the annual financial report for all material operations in the Group. The
annual Directors’ Risk Management Questionnaire for the year ended 30 June 2011 was completed in July 2011.
As well as the Directors’ Risk Management Questionnaire, matters relating to the business risk and risk management system are analysed and
discussed as part of the annual strategic planning process. The Board provides assistance to management in the development and maintenance of
processes to minimise and mitigate business risks.
A summary of the Risk Management Policy is available from the Company’s website or upon request from the Company Secretary.

7.2 Financial reporting
The Managing Director and the Director Finance & Accounting have declared, in writing to the Board that the financial report of the Group is founded
on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the policies adopted by the Board. The declarations for
the year ended 30 June 2011 were received in August 2011.
7.3 Internal Audit
The Group Internal Audit Manager assists the Board in ensuring compliance with internal controls and risk management programs, by regularly
reviewing the effectiveness of compliance and control systems. The Audit Committee is responsible for approving the program of internal audit visits
to be conducted each year and the scope of the work to be performed at each location.
7.4 Code of Ethics and Business Conduct
The Company has a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (“Code”), which has been endorsed by the Board and applies to all directors and Group
employees. The Code is reviewed and updated as necessary to ensure it reflects the highest standards of behaviour and professionalism and the
practices necessary to maintain confidence in the Group’s integrity.
In summary, the Code encapsulates that all directors, managers and employees are expected to act with the utmost integrity and objectivity, striving
at all times to enhance the reputation and performance of the Group. Every employee has a nominated supervisor to whom they refer any issues
arising from their employment.
The Board reviews the Code regularly and processes are in place to promote and communicate the Code’s contents. The Code is available from the
Company’s website or upon request from the Company Secretary.
7.5 Whistleblowing Policy
The Company has a Whistleblowing Policy for the Australian operations. The policy is designed to support and protect any employees who report
non-compliant, suspicious or unethical conduct by other employees of the Group, regardless of seniority of those involved in the alleged conduct. The
Whistleblowing Policy formalises the Company’s commitment to protect the confidentiality and position of employees wishing to raise serious matters
that affect the integrity of the Company and Group.
The Board reviews the Whistleblowing Policy regularly and processes are in place to promote and communicate the Whistleblowing Policy’s contents.
The Whistleblowing Policy is available from the Company’s website or upon request from the Company Secretary.
7.6 Legal compliance training
All senior management personnel are required to complete legal compliance training at least once every two years. The training covers such topics
as:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
contract fundamentals;
issues relating to the Trade Practices Act 1974;
employment contracts, termination and redundancy;
harassment and discrimination;
workplace relations;
occupational health and safety obligations; and
corporate policies (including limits of authority and share trading).
7.7 Dealing in Company shares by directors and employees
The Company has a Share Trading Policy Guide. It is the policy of the Company that directors and senior executives can only buy or sell shares in the
Company in the six week period from (and including) the second business day following any price sensitive announcement including the half year and
full year results, and the Annual General Meeting. Trading outside of this period can only be conducted with prior written approval, which will only be
provided in certain exceptional circumstances. This policy is subject to the overall restriction that persons may at no time deal in any securities when
they are in possession of price sensitive information. The policy is also applicable to all other employees of the Group.
All directors have entered into written agreements to notify the Company Secretary when they buy or sell shares in the Company. In accordance with
the provisions of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules, the Company Secretary advises the ASX of any transactions conducted by
directors in shares in the Company. This information is also reported to the Board.
Each senior executive is requested, on an annual basis, to provide information regarding the financial arrangements (including margin loans) attached
to their personal holdings of shares in the Company. In addition, each senior executive has provided an undertaking to advise the Company Secretary
of any subsequent change regarding the financial arrangements (including margin loans) attached to their personal holdings of shares. This
information is reported to the Board.
The policy prohibits employees from using derivatives or entering into transactions that operate, or are intended to operate, to limit the economic risk
of unvested entitlements to shares, including unvested performance shares issued under the Group’s long term incentive scheme.
The Share Trading Policy Guide is available from the Company’s website or upon request from the Company Secretary.

8. COMMUNICATION AND ENVIRONMENT
8.1 Continuous Disclosure Policy
The Board provides shareholders with information using a comprehensive Continuous Disclosure Policy which includes identifying matters that may
have a material effect on the price of the Company’s shares, notifying them to the ASX, posting them on the Company’s website, and issuing media
releases.
In summary, the Continuous Disclosure Policy operates as follows:
(cid:120)
the Chairman, Managing Director, Director Finance & Accounting and Company Secretary are responsible for interpreting the Continuous
Disclosure Policy and where necessary informing the Board. The Company Secretary is responsible for all communications with the ASX.
Such matters are advised to the ASX on the day they are identified and all senior executives must follow a set process, which involves
monitoring all areas of the Group’s internal and external environment. The Company considers it has complied with all of its continuous
disclosure obligations;
the half year report contains summarised financial information and a review of the operations of the Group during the period. The report is sent
to all shareholders (unless a shareholder has specifically requested not to receive the document);
the annual report is distributed to all shareholders who have requested to receive a copy. The Board ensures that the annual report contains
disclosures required by the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules;
the full texts of notices of meetings and associated explanatory material are placed on the Company’s website;
the Chairman’s address is presented at the Annual General Meeting and subsequently distributed by mail to all shareholders; and

8.2 Shareholders and the Annual General Meeting
The Board encourages full participation of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to ensure a high level of accountability and identification with
the Group’s strategy and goals. Important issues are presented to shareholders as single resolutions and in plain English. Shareholders are
requested to vote on the appointment and maximum aggregate amount of fees that may be paid to all non-executive directors, the granting of
performance shares to the Managing Director and changes to the Constitution.
The external auditor attends the Annual General Meeting to answer shareholder questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and
content of the Independent Audit Report. The meeting is held in Sydney and shareholders can attend in person or send a proxy as their
representative. Unless indisposed, all current directors and senior executives attend the meeting, along with the external auditor.
A copy of the Constitution is available to any shareholder who requests it.
8.3 Environmental reporting system
The Group’s operations are subject to various environmental regulations under Commonwealth, state or territory and other applicable legislation.
The Group has an established environmental reporting system for its environmentally sensitive businesses, which monitors compliance with existing
environmental regulations and new regulations as they are enacted. The recreational and other ancillary activities conducted by those businesses are
subject to various licences and legislation issued under environmental laws that apply in each respective location. The Board has a responsibility to
ensure that robust systems are in place to manage the assets in a sustainable and responsible manner and to ensure that the activities of each
business are conducted in compliance with legislation.
The reporting system is documented in a legal compliance manual and includes procedures to be followed should an incident occur which may
adversely impact the environment. The directors are not aware of breaches of any applicable legislation during the year, which are material in nature,
and have no reason to believe that any possible legal or remedial action would result in a material cost or loss to the Group.

Investments
The Group acquired property, plant and equipment totalling $83,622,000 during the year. The acquisitions were primarily attributable to the purchase of
Rydges Albury, the outstanding 75% share in Rydges Rotorua, general routine and redevelopment capital expenditure, the expansion of the existing
cinema circuits, refurbishment requirements for the cinemas, hotels and resorts and the infrastructure and operational requirements for the Thredbo Alpine
Resort. Acquisitions exclude capital expenditure incurred through partnership activities.
Capital structure
Cash and term deposits at 30 June 2011 totalled $115,581,000 and total debt outstanding was $47,438,000.
Treasury policy
The Group manages interest rate risk in accordance with a Board approved policy covering the types of instruments, range of protection and duration of
instruments. The financial instruments cover interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements. Maturities of these instruments are up to a maximum of
five years. Interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements allow the Group to raise long term borrowings at floating rates and swap a portion of those
borrowings into fixed rates.
The approved range of interest rate cover is based on the projected debt levels for each currency and reduced for each future year. The Group currently
hedges interest bearing debt in Australian dollars and New Zealand dollars with cover at 30 June 2011 extending to March 2012 in Australian dollars and
to September 2011 in New Zealand dollars. At 30 June 2011, due to the low level of Group debt, the Group had only 17% (2010: 20%) of debt hedged.
Liquidity and funding
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
The Group’s secured bank debt facilities comprise the following:
A$160,000,000 revolving multi-currency loan facility;
A$70,000,000 cash advance facility;
A$38,750,000 credit support facility (for the issue of letters of credit and bank guarantees);and
a total of A$5,050,000 in overdraft limits to support its transactional banking facilities.
The above facilities mature on 10 July 2012. Refinancing of bank facilities will be undertaken prior to 30 June 2012. These current facilities are supported
by interlocking guarantees from most Group entities and are secured by specific property mortgages. Debt drawn under these facilities bears interest at
the relevant inter-bank benchmark reference rate plus a margin of between 0.45% and 0.90% per annum. At 30 June 2011, the Group had drawn
$46,321,000 (2010: $40,624,000) under the debt facilities, of which 17% (2010: 20%) was subject to interest rate swaps used for hedging.
In addition to the above facilities, wholly owned subsidiaries in Germany have a working capital facility totalling €9,000,000 (A$12,154,000), secured by a
letter of credit and bank guarantees drawn under the credit support facility in Australia. Debt drawn under this facility bears interest at the relevant inter-
bank benchmark reference rate plus a margin of 0.80% per annum. This facility is subject to annual review. At 30 June 2011, the Group had no debt
drawn under this facility (2010: $nil).
During the year to 30 June 2011, a wholly owned subsidiary in Germany had a property finance lease which was fully paid by period end
(2010: A$3,934,000 outstanding). This lease bore interest at the relevant inter-bank benchmark reference rate plus a margin of 1.75% per annum.
Cash flows from operations
Operating net cash inflows increased to $139,727,000 from $136,586,000 in the prior year to 30 June 2010. Lower trading cash flows, particularly in the
Cinema Exhibition Australia and Germany segments, were more than offset by preliminary refunds of disputed value added tax in Germany, the receipt of
proceeds from Bass Hill land lot sales recognised in the prior year and other positive working capital movements.
Impact of legislation and other external requirements
There were no changes in environmental or other legislative requirements during the year that have significantly impacted the results of operations of the
Group.

The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $46,553,000, a decrease of $6,426,000 on the prior year result.
The Australian cinema circuit experienced weaker trading conditions, recording a 4.8% decline in Box Office. This decline was primarily due to
disappointing December/January trading which was down on the prior comparable period by 17.8%. The prior year included the record breaking
performance of Avatar.
The full year result included standout results from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows – Part 1 and Inception, with both achieving in excess of $35
million at the Australian Box Office. Other major contributors included The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Toy Story 3, The King’s Speech and The Hangover
Part II, all achieving in excess of $30 million.
The Group continued to expand its digital footprint and capitalise on the increasing number of titles released in 3D. Over the year, 167 additional digital
projectors were installed across the circuit, taking the total number of digital projectors to 282, representing 59% of the total circuit and the largest
deployment of any exhibitor within Australia.
Merchandising revenue continued to grow with a 6.1% improvement in revenue per admission over the prior year. This growth was driven by the
continued rollout of the successful self serve Scoop Alley candy bar concept and the ongoing success of the Gold Class cinema experience.
The Group continued to expand its successful big screen, big seat Vmax concept, with nine traditional auditoriums being converted to the Vmax
concept. This takes the total number of Vmax screens on the circuit to 23. In addition, the Group opened a new eight-screen cinema at the Top Ryde
City shopping complex in north-western Sydney. The Top Ryde site is an Event Cinema and includes one Vmax and seven traditional auditoriums.
On 28 July 2010, the Group completed the purchase of the Moonlight Cinema business for $1,750,000. During the year, the Moonlight Cinema business
operated in five locations: Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, and Perth. An additional seasonal Moonlight Cinema site opened at Port Douglas in
July 2011.
In January 2011, the Group closed the two-screen Mosman cinema complex located in Sydney. The Group owns the freehold land and building and
opportunities relating to the development of the site are currently being reviewed.
The contribution from the Group’s 50% interest in the Village managed circuit in Victoria decreased by 11.8% over the prior comparable year. The
decline was similarly due to the soft film line-up over the December/January period.

The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $2,279,000. The New Zealand cinema business was acquired in February 2010 and
the prior year reflects only the result from the date of acquisition.
The total Box Office for all exhibitors in New Zealand was $158 million and was 11.0% below the Box Office for the previous full year comparable period.
The top five grossing films were: Inception, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows – Part 1, Toy Story 3, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and The King’s
Speech. The prior year included the record breaking performance of Avatar and the very successful local production, Boy.
Merchandising spend per head grew by 3.8% due predominately to the refurbishment of candy bars at two flagship locations and the continued focus on
value-priced combos and promotions.

Other revenue increased due to various initiatives, including the introduction of an online booking fee, new sponsorship arrangements, and additional
advertising activities. It is expected that revenues from these initiatives will increase further as they continue to gather momentum.
Capital expenditure projects during the year included the refurbishment of two flagship cinema sites, Queen Street and St Lukes, and an additional 41
digital 3D capable projectors and screens. The additional screens increase the coverage to more than 40% of the total circuit.
The Fijian joint venture cinema business contributed an equity accounted result of $677,000.

The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $15,627,000, a decrease of $14,539,000 on the prior year result.
After a poor first half of the year, which suffered from a lack of compelling film product, extremely poor weather conditions during December 2010 and the
negative impact of the Football World Cup in July 2010, the circuit experienced a strong finish to the financial year. Trading over the last four months of
the financial year showed greatly improved results over the previous financial year, with June 2011 showing a significantly better trading result due to the
impact of the Football World Cup in the prior year.
Box Office decreased 10.5% over what was a very strong prior year. Admissions experienced a decline of 14.4%, with average admission price showing
an increase of 4.7%. This increase in average admission price was driven partly by the additional surcharge on 3D admissions. The German circuit
currently has 3D capability for 96 screens at 49 sites.
The top performing films at the German Box Office for the financial year were Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows – Part 1, Pirates of the Caribbean: On
Stranger Tides, Tangled, The Hangover Part II, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and the German productions Kokowääh and Konferenz der Tiere.
German films contributed 10.6% of the Box Office compared with 18% in the prior year. Live broadcasts of The Metropolitan Opera again proved popular,
with broadcasts expanding from seven to 20 sites. Also during the year, the Event brand was introduced and replaced the IMAX brand at the Sony Centre
site in Berlin.
The strengthening of the Australian dollar against the Euro continued to have a negative impact on the result when translated to Australian dollars. The
average month end A$/Euro exchange rate for the financial year to 30 June 2011 was 72.7 cents against 63.9 cents for the prior financial year.
As noted in the Group’s financial report in Note 32 – Contingent Assets and Liabilities, German controlled and joint venture entities have had a long
running dispute with local tax authorities over the level of value added tax paid on a number of food products sold. In March 2011, the European Court of
Justice ruled in favour of the arguments presented by a competitor on a similar issue. A favourable outcome to this dispute was considered probable at 30
June 2011; however, not virtually certain due to an outstanding German court decision. A contingent asset exists at 30 June 2011 amounting to
$20,483,000. This amount relates to disputed value added tax, totalling $18,921,000, provided for or paid by German controlled and joint venture entities
plus potential interest receivable thereon of $1,562,000. Subsequent to balance date, the German Federal Fiscal Court delivered its decision on the
competitor’s case, which was consistent with the earlier decision by the European Court of Justice. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it is expected
that this contingent asset will be recognised as income in the financial year to 30 June 2012. Refer also Note 41 – Events Subsequent to Reporting Date.
Cinema Exhibition – United Arab Emirates
The Groups’ 49% interest in the Middle East cinema business was sold during the period to joint venture partner, the Majid Al Futtaim Group, for AED283
million (A$78.6 million). The earnings received for the period prior to the sale were $1,964,000 and the profit on sale was $60,318,000.

The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $28,221,000, an increase of $445,000 on the prior year result.
Occupancy in the Group’s owned hotels was 75.1%, with an increase in average room rate of 3.2%. The majority of the Group’s city-based hotels
produced strong profit growth, driven primarily by a resurgent corporate travel market. This was particularly the case in Sydney, Brisbane and Perth.
20 Amalgamated Holdings Limited – Annual Report 2011
D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O R T
Rydges Hotels and Resorts (continued)
Growth from the corporate segment was partially offset by softening demand from the leisure market, which has been impacted by weaker consumer
confidence. Softer leisure demand had the greatest impact in the Queensland resort destinations, which were also buffeted by the after effects of Cyclone
Yasi and the Queensland floods during the peak January holiday season.
Similar trading conditions also prevailed in New Zealand, with pleasing results from the Group’s city-based hotels, offset by some softening from inbound
and domestic leisure travel.
The Group responded to these market conditions by maximising rate growth opportunities arising from strong corporate demand, whilst driving volume
from the key leisure segments via high value promotional offers.
Costs associated with the launch of the QT brand on the Gold Coast also had a one off impact on the result.
The Group’s focus on driving an increased volume of business online through www.rydges.com and the expansion of the Rydges PriorityGuest program
continues. Almost 300,000 room nights were booked via these channels, with an average rate increase of 7.6%. A mobile booking platform, Pocket
Hotel, was also launched during the year.
Four significant management contracts were secured during the year. Rydges Wellington (formally Holiday Inn) and the Reef House Resort & Spa Palm
Cove (formally Sebel) joined the Group in March, followed by two properties located opposite Darwin Airport in June. In addition, the Group acquired
Rydges Albury in March 2011 and moved to 100% ownership of Rydges Rotorua, effective from December 2010.
The earthquake that hit Christchurch in February 2011 resulted in the closure of the Group’s leased hotel in that city. The hotel had appropriate insurance
in place and it is not expected to reopen before mid 2012.
Thredbo Alpine Resort
The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $15,168,000, an increase of $122,000 on the prior year result.
Thredbo experienced solid trading despite inconsistent natural snow conditions during July and early August 2010. From mid August 2010, the region
experienced near record snowfalls, resulting in ideal snow and weather conditions from September until the end of the 2010 ski season.
Thredbo achieved some 395,000 skier days during the period, an increase of 7.2% above the prior year and the best result recorded in the last six years.
Thredbo continues to maintain a focus on summer activities and events. These include the Snowy Ride and Blues and Jazz Festivals which have assisted
in drawing visitors to the Alpine area and building Thredbo as a year-round destination.
The final month of the year, and the beginning of the 2012 season, showed encouraging signs due to a combination of good natural and man-made snow.
These conditions supported the best June result in the last five seasons. The near record snowfalls continued into July; however, the NSW resorts also
experienced extreme wind and blizzard events during the peak NSW school holiday period, partially offsetting some of the gain which would normally be
expected from the encouraging early snowfalls.
Leisure and Attractions
The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $2,842,000, an increase of $418,000 on the prior year result.
The Featherdale result increased by 4% over the prior year, and was a commendable result given the continued weakness in the inbound tourist market.
An increased number of performances held at the State Theatre resulted in significantly improved trading conditions compared to the prior year. In
addition, the result benefited from an increased focus on payroll costs and house expenses during the year.
ENTERTAINMENT TECHNOLOGY
The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $892,000, a decrease of $888,000 on the prior year result.
The result was impacted by a reduced profit from the Filmlab business, with the exhibition industry moving from 35mm film to digital projection. In
addition, there were costs incurred with the establishment of a digital production studio.
STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS
Property
The normalised profit before interest and income tax expense was $5,060,000, an increase of $925,000 on the prior year result.
Contributing to the improved result was the first full year of rental income from the commercial office development at the former cinema site in Canberra
Civic. The result also includes a fair value increment of $438,000 on the revaluation of the Group’s investment properties compared to a fair value
increment of $275,000 in the prior year.
Sales at the residential subdivision of the Bass Hill Drive-in site are pleasing, with a further 29 lots sold and eight unconditional contracts exchanged
during the year. A profit of $5,600,000 has been booked as an individually significant item in relation to these sales. Of the total of 102 lots, only 13
remain unsold or not subject to unconditional contracts as at 30 June 2011.

STRATEGIC PLANS BY DIVISION
The Group’s strategic plan, which includes future expansion, will depend on industry, economic and political conditions, the potential impact of global
events, the future financial performance and available capital, the competitive environment, evolving customer needs and trends, and the availability of
attractive opportunities. It is likely that the Group’s strategies will continue to evolve and change in response to these and other factors, and there can be
no absolute assurance that these current strategies, as detailed below, will be achieved.
ENTERTAINMENT
The strategic plans for Entertainment are applicable to both the domestic and international cinema businesses.
Cinema Exhibition – domestic and international
Enhancing the customer experience
Whilst the Group has no control over the general audience appeal of available films, providing consumers with a demonstrably superior experience in the
cinema to that which can be achieved in the home, is a central strategic platform. To provide this enhanced cinema experience, the Group will pursue the
following strategies:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
continued refurbishment of existing cinemas and expansion of the number of cinemas with the Event Cinema brand;
expansion of the Gold Class cinema concept to certain cinema locations within the Australian domestic circuit;
expansion of the Vmax cinema concept which provides the ultimate big screen cinema experience through larger screens and seats than a
traditional auditorium;
continued improvement of food and beverage outlets within the cinemas to maximise food and beverage revenue opportunities;
continued expansion of the 3D digital footprint within the Australian domestic circuit to ensure all regions have access to the release of 3D titles; and
enhanced customer communication and ticketing through online applications.
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
Maximising returns from existing locations
The cinema exhibition markets in Australia, and those international locations in which the Group currently operates, are considered to be mature markets
with limited growth and expansion opportunity. The Group anticipates achieving growth primarily through further expansion of the premium cinema
concepts of Gold Class and Vmax and building higher frequency through loyalty programs.
Rationalising under-performing cinema sites
The Group will continue to pursue the policy of rationalising under-performing cinema sites. All sites, in all territories, are reviewed periodically and, where
it is assessed that there is limited profit or potential for performance turnaround, an exit strategy is formulated. Where the site (or group of sites) is subject
to long term leases, the exit strategy may be over a protracted period of time.
Industry developments
The Group believes that there are certain current issues pertaining to the industry that have the capacity to impact the strategic plans and future direction
of the cinema operations. The Group will continue to monitor developments in relation to the following issues:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
increase in capital expenditure resulting from the deployment a digital platform for film exhibition;
alternative film delivery methods and the rise in popularity of other forms of entertainment (including DVD ownership and the increase of home
entertainment systems);
shortening of the release window of film to DVD; and
increase in unauthorised recording (piracy) of audio and visual recordings for commercial sale.
HOSPITALITY AND LEISURE
Rydges Hotels and Resorts
Enhancing the guest experience
The Group will continue to provide hotel guests with quality 4 star accommodation that consistently delivers a product and service that meets or exceeds
guest expectations. To provide this, the Group will continue to pursue the following strategies:
(cid:120)
constant focus on innovative and dynamic recruitment and training practices to ensure talented and dynamic people are attracted to work in Rydges
Hotels;
(cid:120) maintenance of all hotels at 4 star standard and when required, rejuvenation of key areas of hotels to ensure Rydges’ reputation continues to be
enhanced;
specific focus on creating stand out food and beverage experiences that build incremental spend and enhance each hotel’s reputation; and
(cid:120)
(cid:120) maintenance of a leadership position in the online distribution and booking capabilities for guests. The Rydges PriorityGuest program and the sales
and revenue structure are important support functions for the online strategy.
QT Hotels and Resorts
(cid:120)
The Group has recognised a market opportunity in the 4.5 star design hotel segment. This segment presents far greater opportunities for the level of
average room rate with the level of operating costs not significantly greater than the 4.0 star segment of the Rydges brand.
The segment requires an innovative approach to the operation of the hotel restaurant bar and again these operate at a higher margin level.
The Group will own and operate an initial core of 3 – 4 hotels and then seek further expansion largely through managed opportunities.
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
22 Amalgamated Holdings Limited – Annual Report 2011
D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O R T
Increasing the number of hotel rooms
The Group will continue to seek opportunities for future growth through gaining of new hotel management agreements and freehold acquisitions.
Maximising returns from existing locations
The Group anticipates achieving continuing improvements in results through growth in market share and initiatives that drive increased spend and capture
rates in all hotels.
Thredbo Alpine Resort – Kosciuszko Thredbo
Premier holiday destination
The key strategy for the Thredbo Alpine Resort is to maintain the facility as one of the premier Australian holiday destinations. This strategy includes:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
continuing to ensure the popularity, high-quality and ambience of the winter-time resort facility;
enhancing snow making automation to minimise risks in poor seasons;
increasing the summer and shoulder visitations by both leisure and conference guests;
staging special events that help to promote the Resort; and
ensuring that the environmental integrity of the Resort is maintained and, where possible, improved.
Maximising returns from existing facility
The Group anticipates that the Resort will achieve growth through shoulder periods, summer revenue and cost improvements, increased visitation and
increased occupancy rates.
ENTERTAINMENT TECHNOLOGY
The strategic plans for Entertainment Technology are applicable to each of the technology businesses.
Edge Digital Technology and Filmlab

EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO REPORTING DATE
Subsequent to 30 June 2011, the German Federal Fiscal Court issued a ruling in favour of a competitor on a matter that is similar in nature to various
disputes with Group controlled and joint venture entities and the German tax authorities. Although this Court ruling is only binding for the parties to the
case, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it is expected that Group controlled and joint venture entities will also be able to obtain favourable outcomes
to their disputes and the related contingent asset at 30 June 2011 totalling $20,483,000 will be recognised as income in the financial year to 30 June
2012. Note 32 – Contingent Assets and Liabilities provides additional information in relation to this matter.
Other than the matter outlined above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the year and the date of this report, any item, transaction or
event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, to affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results
of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group, in future years.

In terms of the indemnity, the Company will indemnify the directors and other officers of the Company acting as such, to the full extent permitted by law,
against any liability to another person (other than the Company or a related body corporate) incurred in acting as a director or officer of the Company,
unless the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith. The indemnity includes any liability for costs and expenses incurred by such person
in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgement is given in that person’s favour, or in which the person is acquitted and in
making an application in relation to any proceedings in which the court grants relief to the person under the law.
The Company has provided directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies that cover all the directors and officers of the Company and its controlled
entities. The terms of the policies prohibit disclosure of details of the amount of the insurance cover, its nature and the premium paid.

AUDITOR INDEPENDENCE
The lead auditor’s independence declaration is set out on page 37 and forms part of the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2011.
24 Amalgamated Holdings Limited – Annual Report 2011
NON-AUDIT SERVICES PROVIDED BY KPMG
During the year, KPMG, the Group’s auditor, has performed certain other services in addition to their statutory duties.
D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O R T
The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor and in accordance with written advice provided by resolution of
the Audit Committee is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services during the year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise,
the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
all non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Group and have been reviewed by the Audit Committee
to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and
the non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity
for the Group, acting as an advocate for the Group or jointly sharing risks and rewards.
A copy of the auditors’ independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 has been included in this Directors’ Report.

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED
This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for directors and executives of the Group.
D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O R T
Remuneration philosophy
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board on remuneration policies and packages
applicable to the Board members and senior executives of the Group. The objective of the remuneration policy is to ensure the remuneration package
properly reflects the person’s duties and responsibilities, and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, motivating and retaining people of the
appropriate quality.
Remuneration levels are competitively set to attract appropriately qualified and experienced directors and executives. The Nomination and Remuneration
Committee obtains independent advice on the level of remuneration packages. The remuneration packages of the Managing Director and senior
executives include an at-risk component that is linked to the overall financial and operational performance of the Group and based on the achievement of
specific goals of the Group. Executives participate in the Group’s Executive Performance Share Plan. The long term benefits of the Executive
Performance Share Plan are conditional upon the Group achieving certain performance criteria, details of which are outlined below.
The Group also has the following share and option plans:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
Tax Exempt Share Plan;
Management Share Option Plan (suspended to new issues and no grants have been made under this plan since 2004); and
Employee Share Plan (closed to new members and no offers have been made under the plan since 1998).
Further details in relation to the various share plans and option plan are provided in Note 30 to the financial report.
Remuneration structure
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director remuneration is separate and distinct from senior executive
remuneration.
Non-executive director remuneration
Objective
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the Group with the ability to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre,
whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders.
Structure
The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by a
general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount determined is then divided between the directors as agreed. The latest determination was at the
Annual General Meeting held on 22 October 2010 when shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of $1,500,000 per year. Non-executive
directors do not receive any performance related remuneration nor are they issued shares, options or performance shares.
The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned among directors is reviewed
annually. The Board considers advice from external consultants as well as the fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when
undertaking the annual review process.
Each director receives a fee for being a director of the Company. An additional fee is also paid for being a member of the Audit Committee and the
Nomination and Remuneration Committee. The payment of an additional fee recognises the additional time commitment required by directors who serve
on those Committees. Directors’ base fees for the financial year ending 30 June 2012 are $108,000 per annum (Chairman: $270,000 per annum, inclusive
of Committee fees). Directors’ fees cover all main Board activities. Non-executive director members who sit on both the Audit Committee and the
Nomination and Remuneration Committee receive an additional payment of $18,000 per annum (Chairman of both the Audit Committee and the
Nomination and Remuneration Committee: $32,000 per annum).
The remuneration of non-executive directors for the year ended 30 June 2011 is detailed on page 32 in this report.
The Company had a Directors’ Retirement Plan. The plan was suspended in respect of any new director appointments, on 15 May 2003 and directors
appointed to the Board after that date are not entitled to participate in the plan. Under the plan, directors with more than three years service receive a
retirement lump sum based on the length of service. The plan benefits accrued on a monthly basis and reach the maximum amount after 12 years service.
The benefit is capped to a maximum lump sum per director of $165,000. The plan has been fully accrued since the year ended 30 June 2007 and the
Company has not incurred any additional expense since that date.
During the year, the Company paid $165,000 to RM Graham under the plan. Mr Graham resigned as a director on 20 April 2011. There were no other
benefits paid under the plan during the year ended 30 June 2011.

Managing Director and executive remuneration
Objective
The Group aims to reward the Managing Director and executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and
responsibilities within the Group, and so as to:
(cid:120)
reward executives for Group, business unit and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks and key
performance indicators (“KPIs”);
align the interests of executives with those of shareholders;
link reward with the strategic goals and performance of the Group; and
ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
Structure
In determining the level and make-up of executive remuneration, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee obtains independent advice on the
appropriateness of remuneration packages for executives, given remuneration trends in other companies, from which recommendations are made to the
Board.
It is the Nomination and Remuneration Committee’s policy that employment contracts are entered into with the Managing Director and other executives.
Details of these employment contracts are provided on page 30.
Remuneration consists of both fixed and variable remuneration components. The variable remuneration component consists of a Short Term Incentive
Plan and a Long Term Incentive Plan.
The proportion of fixed remuneration and variable remuneration (potential short term and long term incentives) is established for each senior executive by
the Nomination and Remuneration Committee.
Fixed annual remuneration
Objective
Remuneration levels for executives are reviewed annually to ensure that they are appropriate for the responsibility, qualifications and experience of each
executive and are competitive with the market.
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee establishes and issues an appropriate guideline for the purpose of the annual review of fixed remuneration
levels. The guideline is based on both current and forecast Consumer Price Index and market conditions. There are no guaranteed fixed remuneration
increases in any senior executives’ contracts.
Structure
Executives have the option to receive their fixed annual remuneration in cash and a limited range of prescribed fringe benefits such as motor vehicles and
car parking. The total employment cost of any remuneration package, including fringe benefits tax, is taken into account in determining an employee’s
fixed annual remuneration.
Certain employees have been relocated from their country of origin. In some cases, expatriate employees are entitled to the payment or reimbursement of
relocation costs (at the commencement and termination of the contract), annual return airfares to the employee’s country of origin and the provision of
assistance to complete various taxation returns and visa applications.
Variable remuneration – short term incentive (“STI”)
Objective
The objective of the STI program is to link the achievement of the operational targets with the remuneration received by the executives charged with
meeting those targets. The total potential STI available is set at a level so as to provide sufficient incentive to the executive to achieve the operational
targets and such that the cost to the Group is reasonable in the circumstances.
27 Amalgamated Holdings Limited – Annual Report 2011
D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O R T
Structure
Actual STI payments granted to each executive depend on the extent to which specific operating targets, set at the beginning of the year, are met. The
operational targets consist of a number of KPIs covering both financial and non-financial measures of performance. Typically, KPIs and assessment
criteria include:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
meeting of pre-determined growth in Group earnings over the prior year;
meeting of strategic and operational objectives; and
assessed personal effort and contribution.
The Group has pre-determined benchmarks which must be met in order to trigger payments under the STI. The measures were chosen as they directly
align the individual’s STI reward to the KPIs of the Group and to its strategies and performance.
On an annual basis, after consideration of performance against KPIs, an overall performance rating for the Group and each individual business unit is
assessed and approved by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. The individual performance of each executive is also rated and all three ratings
are taken into account when determining the amount, if any, of the STI pool to be allocated to each executive.
The aggregate of annual STI payments available for executives across the Group is subject to the approval of the Nomination and Remuneration
Committee. STI payments are delivered as a cash bonus.
For the Managing Director and named executives, the general target bonus opportunity range is from 0% to 150% of the executives’ fixed annual
remuneration. The target bonus range for the Managing Director and named executives is detailed below:

Bonuses may be paid above these levels at the discretion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the Board, if it is assessed that an
exceptional contribution has been made by an executive. There is no separate profit-share plan.
Variable remuneration – long term incentive (“LTI”)
Objective
The Executive Performance Share Plan was approved by shareholders at the 2006 Annual General Meeting. The Executive Performance Share Plan was
designed to link employee reward with KPIs that drive sustainable growth in shareholder value over the long term. The objectives of the LTI plan are to:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
align senior employees’ incentives with shareholder interests;
balance the short term with the long term Group focus; and
retain high calibre senior employees by providing an attractive equity-based incentive that builds an ownership of the Group mindset.
Only senior employees who are able to directly influence the long term success of the Group participate in the Executive Performance Share Plan.
Structure
Executives are awarded performance shares which will only vest on the achievement of certain performance hurdles and service conditions. An offer is
made under the Executive Performance Share Plan to senior employees each financial year and is based on individual performance as assessed by the
annual appraisal process. If a senior employee does not sustain a consistent level of high performance, they will not be nominated for Executive
Performance Share Plan participation. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee reviews all nominated senior employees with participation subject to
final Board approval. In accordance with the ASX Listing Rules, approval from shareholders is obtained before participation in the Executive Performance
Share Plan commences for the Managing Director.
28 Amalgamated Holdings Limited – Annual Report 2011
D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O R T
Structure (continued)
Each award of performance shares is divided into equal portions, with each portion being subject to a different performance hurdle. The performance
hurdles are based on earnings per share (“EPS”) and total shareholder return (“TSR”) growth of Amalgamated Holdings Limited as determined by the
Board over a three year period (“Performance Period”). The extent to which the performance hurdles have been met will be assessed by the Board at the
expiry of the Performance Period.
The performance hurdles for the awards of performance shares to executives in the financial year ended 30 June 2011 are based on Amalgamated
Holdings Limited’s EPS and TSR growth over the Performance Period of the three years from 30 June 2010 (being the “Base Year”) to 30 June 2013.
The performance hurdles are as follows:
EPS hurdle
The EPS hurdle requires that the Group’s EPS growth for the Performance Period must be greater than the target set by the Board. The EPS hurdle was
chosen as it provides evidence of the Group’s growth in earnings. The hurdle is as follows:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
if annual compound EPS growth over the Performance Period is less than 8%, no shares will vest with the executive;
if annual compound EPS growth over the Performance Period is equal to 8% but less than 12%, the proportion of performance shares vesting will
be increased on a pro-rata basis between 50% and 100%; or
if annual compound EPS growth over the Performance Period compared to the Base Year is equal to or greater than 12%, all of the performance
shares awarded (and attaching to this hurdle) will vest with the executive.
(cid:120)
If the EPS measure is not achieved within the initial performance measurement period to a threshold level or higher, there will be no entitlement to shares
for a participant. If the EPS performance measure is achieved to a threshold level or higher in the initial period, it will not be retested.
TSR hurdle
The TSR hurdle requires that the growth in the Group’s TSR must be at or above the median of the Group’s comparator group (“comparator group”). The
comparator group is the S&P/ASX 200 (excluding mining stocks). Growth in TSR is defined as share price growth and dividends paid and reinvested on
the ex-dividend date (adjusted for rights and bonus issues and any capital reconstructions) measured from the time of issue to the time of vesting.
The TSR performance hurdle was chosen as it is widely recognised as one of the best indicators of shareholder value creation. The comparator group for
TSR purposes has been chosen as it represents the group with which the Group competes for shareholders’ capital. The hurdle is as follows:
if annual compound TSR growth over the Performance Period is less than the 51st percentile, no shares will vest with the executive;
(cid:120)
if annual compound TSR growth over the Performance Period is equal to or exceeds the 51st percentile but is less than 75th percentile, the
(cid:120)
proportion of performance shares vesting will be increased on a pro-rata basis between 50% and 100%; or
if annual compound TSR growth over the Performance Period is equal to or greater than 75th percentile, all of the performance shares awarded (and
attaching to this hurdle) will vest with the executive.
(cid:120)
The TSR calculation, once completed, is independently reviewed. If the TSR measure is not achieved within the initial performance measurement period
to a threshold level or higher, there will be no entitlement to shares for a participant. If the TSR performance measure is achieved to a threshold level or
higher in the initial period, it will not be retested.
The Board has retained the discretion to vary the performance hurdles and criteria.
Options
Prior to 17 September 2004, the Group delivered LTI grants to executives in the form of options. The last issue of options was granted on 16 September
2004. The Management Share Option Plan has since been suspended and no further grants have been made since 2004.
The details of the value of options, options exercised and options lapsed during the prior financial year are outlined on page 36. There are no unissued
ordinary shares of the Group under option at 30 June 2011 (2010: nil).

Employment contracts
It is the Group’s policy that employment contracts for the Managing Director and each senior executive are unlimited in term.
The employment contracts typically outline the components of remuneration paid to the Managing Director and executives but do not prescribe how
remuneration levels are to be modified from year to year. Generally, remuneration levels are reviewed each year to take into account Consumer Price
Index changes, and any change in the scope of the role performed by the senior executive and any changes required to meet the principles of the
remuneration policy.

Directors’ and executives’ remuneration (continued)
(a) Amounts disclosed above for remuneration of directors and named executives exclude insurance premiums paid by the Group in respect of directors’

relating to the insurance contracts is set out within this Remuneration Report. The amounts disclosed in the table above relate to premiums paid by
the Group for group salary continuance insurance.
(b) Amounts disclosed above for remuneration relating to performance shares have been determined in accordance with the requirements of AASB 2
Share-based Payment. AASB 2 requires the measurement of the fair value of performance shares at the grant date and then to have that value
apportioned in equal amounts over the period from grant date to vesting date. A value has been placed on the performance shares using a Monte
Carlo simulation model. Details of performance shares on issue are set out within the Remuneration Report and further details on the terms and
conditions of these performance shares is set out in Note 30 to the financial report.
There were no amounts accrued during the year relating to the Directors’ Retirement Plan. During the year, an amount of $165,000, which had been
accrued in prior years, was paid to RM Graham on his resignation from the Board. In the previous financial year, an amount of $165,000 was paid to
TC Ford on his resignation from the Board. Further information regarding the Directors’ Retirement Plan has been included within the Remuneration

To the directors of Amalgamated Holdings Limited:
I declare that as at the date of this declaration both the Firm and I are independent in accordance with professional rules and statutory
requirements on auditor independence. To the best of my knowledge and belief, in relation to the audit for the financial year ended 30 June
2011 the only matter which requires disclosure in relation to auditor independence requirements as set out in the Corporations Act 2001 or
any applicable code of professional conduct is the situation described below:
On 20 April 2011, a consultant to the Firm was appointed a director of Amalgamated Holdings Limited (“AHL”). The director continued to
provide consulting services to the Firm until 26 July 2011 when the consulting agreement was terminated. The director provided no services
to AHL on behalf of the Firm during the consultancy.

NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Amalgamated Holdings Limited (“Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial report of the Company as at and for the
year ended 30 June 2011 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) and the Group’s interest in
associates and jointly controlled entities.
Amalgamated Holdings Limited is a company incorporated in Australia and limited by shares. The shares are publicly traded on the ASX. The
nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in Note 2.
The financial report was authorised for issue by the Board of Directors of Amalgamated Holdings Limited on 25 August 2011.
(a)
(b)
(i)
(ii)
Statement of compliance
The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards
(AASBs) (including Australian Accounting Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the
Corporations Act 2001.
The financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations adopted by the International
Accounting Standards Board.
Basis of preparation
Basis of measurement
The financial report is prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following material items in the Statement of Financial Position
which are measured at fair value: derivative financial instruments, financial instruments classified as available-for-sale, liabilities for cash-
settled share-based payments and investment properties. Assets held for sale are stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less
costs to sell.
Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation.
Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of a financial report in conformity with AASBs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that
affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated
assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the
period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods if affected.
Judgements made by management in the application of AASBs that have a significant effect on the financial report and estimates with a
significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in Note 1(z).
(iii)
Functional and presentation currency
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and the functional currency of the Group is Australian dollars.
The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Class Order 98/100 dated 10 July 1998 (updated by Class Order 05/641 effective 28 July
2005 and Class Order 06/51 effective 31 January 2006) and in accordance with the Class Order, amounts in the financial report and
Directors’ Report have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.
(iv)
Change in significant accounting policies
The accounting policies described in this note have been applied consistently to all periods presented in this financial report and have been
applied consistently by all entities in the Group, except as explained in this note which addresses changes in accounting policies.
From 1 July 2010, the Group has prospectively applied AASB 2009-5 Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from
the Annual Improvements Project (2009) and AASB 2010-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual
Improvements Project (2010) which became mandatory for the Group for the period beginning on or after 1 July 2010. The mandatory
changes in these accounting policies had no material impact on the financial statements.

NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(iv)
Change in significant accounting policies (continued)
The following standards have been identified as those which may impact the Group in the period of initial application. They were available
for early adoption at 30 June 2011, but have not been applied by the Group in preparing these financial statements:
(cid:120)
AASB 9 Financial Instruments (2009) and AASB 9 Financial Instruments (2010) replaces the classification and measurement
requirements for financial assets and liabilities currently contained in AASB 139 Financial Instruments. Under the new standards,
financial assets are to be measured at either amortised cost or fair value. AASB 9 (2009) and AASB (2010) are expected to
become mandatory for the Group’s 30 June 2014 financial statements. Retrospective application is generally required, although
there are exceptions, particularly if the entity adopts the standard for the year ending 30 June 2012 or earlier. The Group does not
plan to adopt this standard early and has not yet determined the potential effect of the standard.
(c)
(i)
Basis of consolidation
Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is
transferred to the Group. Under the acquisition method, consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value,
which is measured as the sum of the fair values at acquisition date of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred by the Group to the previous
owners of the acquiree, and equity interests issued by the Group. Consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent
consideration and share-based payment awards of the acquiree that are replaced mandatorily in the business combination.
For acquisitions on or after 1 July 2009, the Group measures goodwill arising from the business combination at the acquisition date as the
fair value of the consideration transferred, including the recognised amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, less the net
recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the consideration transferred is lower
than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised in profit or loss.
A contingent liability of the acquiree is assumed in a business combination only if the liability represents a present obligation and arises
from past events, and its fair value can be measured.
The Group measures any non-controlling interest at its proportionate interest of the fair value of identifiable net assets of the acquiree.
(ii)
(iii)
Transaction costs incurred by the Group in connection with a business combination, such as due diligence fees, legal fees and other
professional costs, are expensed as incurred.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial
and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that are presently
exercisable or convertible are taken into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial
statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
Associates and jointly controlled entities (“equity accounted investees”)
Associates are those entities for which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies.
Significant influence is presumed to exist when the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting power of another entity. Jointly
controlled entities are those entities over whose activities the Group has joint control, established by contractual agreement and requiring
unanimous consent for strategic financial and operating decisions.
The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of associates and
jointly controlled entities from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint
control ceases. The Group’s share of movements in reserves is recognised directly in consolidated equity. When the Group’s share of
losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted investee, the Group’s carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is
discontinued except to the extent that the Group has legal or constructive obligations to make payments on behalf of the investee.
(iv)
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-Group balances and transactions, and any unrealised gains and losses or income and expenses arising from intra-Group transactions,
are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial report.
Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates and jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest
in the entity. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of
impairment.

NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(d)
(i)
(ii)
Foreign currency
Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the year end date are translated to Australian dollars at the foreign exchange rate ruling at
that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in profit or loss, except for differences arising on retranslation
of a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation that is effective, which are recognised in other
comprehensive income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated
using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are stated
at fair value are translated to Australian dollars at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined.
Financial statements of foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to
Australian dollars at foreign exchange rates ruling at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to
Australian dollars at rates approximating the foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange differences
arising on retranslation are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity.
When a foreign operation is disposed of, in part or in full, the relevant amount in the reserve is transferred to profit or loss.
When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the
translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group
disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence
or joint control, the relevant portion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.
(iii)
Net investment in foreign operations
Exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign operations, and the effective portion of related hedges, are
taken to the foreign currency translation reserve. They are released to profit or loss as an adjustment to profit or loss on disposal.
Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation, the settlement of which
is neither planned or likely in the foreseeable future, are considered to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation and are
recognised directly in other comprehensive income and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity.
(e)
Derivative financial instruments
From time to time, the Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange risks arising
from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities. In accordance with its treasury policy, the Group does not hold or issue
derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Derivative financial instruments are recognised at fair value. The gain or loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in
profit or loss. However, where derivatives qualify for hedge accounting, recognition of any resultant gain or loss depends on the nature of
the item being hedged (refer Note 1(f)).
The fair value of interest rate swaps is the estimated amount that the Group would receive or pay to terminate the swap at the reporting
date, taking into account current interest rates and the creditworthiness of the swap counterparties. The fair value of forward exchange
contracts is their quoted market price at the reporting date, being the present value of the quoted forward price.
(f)
Hedging
On entering into a hedging relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship and the risk management
objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or
transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the
exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. The Group makes an assessment, both at
inception of the hedge relationship as well as on an ongoing basis, whether such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving
offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the respective hedged items attributable to the hedged risk, and whether the actual results
of each hedge have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they are designated.

(i)
Cash flow hedges
Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the variability in cash flows of a recognised asset or liability, or a highly
probable forecast transaction, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instrument is recognised in other
comprehensive income and presented in equity in the hedging reserve. When the forecast transaction subsequently results in the
recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, or the forecast transaction for a non-financial liability becomes a firm
commitment for which fair value hedge accounting is applied, the associated cumulative gain or loss is removed from equity and included in
the initial cost or other carrying amount of the non-financial asset or liability. If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the
recognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, then the associated gains and losses that were recognised directly in equity are
reclassified into profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the asset acquired or liability assumed affects profit or loss (i.e.
when interest income or expense is recognised).
For cash flow hedges, the associated cumulative gain or loss is removed from equity and recognised in the Income Statement in the same
period or periods during which the hedged forecast transaction affects profit or loss. Any ineffective portion of change in the fair value of the
derivative is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or no longer qualifies for hedge
accounting. At that point in time, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognised in equity is kept in equity until the
forecast transaction occurs. If a hedge transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity is
reclassified in profit or loss.
Hedge of net investment in foreign operations
The portion of the gain or loss on an instrument used to hedge a net investment in a foreign operation, that is determined to be an effective
hedge, is recognised in other comprehensive income and presented in equity in the hedging reserve. The ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in the Income Statement.
Property, plant and equipment
Owned assets
Items of property, plant and equipment (except for investment properties – refer Note 1(g)(ii)) are stated at cost or deemed cost, less
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
The cost of assets represents the fair value of the consideration provided, plus incidental costs directly attributable to the acquisition and
may also include:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
the initial estimate of the cost at the time of installation and during the period of use, when relevant and probable, of removing items
and restoring the site on which they are located (decommissioning);
changes in the measurement of existing liabilities recognised for decommissioning costs resulting from changes in the discount rate
applied to these future liabilities or changes to estimates of cost;
transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and
equipment; and
the borrowing cost related to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets (refer Note 1(v)).
Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable are recorded at their present value, discounted at the
rate applicable to the Group if a similar borrowing were obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.
The unwinding of the discount is treated as interest expense.
Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property,
plant and equipment.
(ii)
Investment properties
Investment properties comprise land and buildings which are held for long term rental yields or for capital appreciation, or both, and are not
occupied by the Group in the ordinary course of business or for administration purposes. Initially, investment properties are measured at
cost including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value with any change therein
recognised in profit or loss.
Property that is being constructed or redeveloped for future use as an investment property is also measured at fair value (unless a fair value
cannot be reliably determined) from the date a decision has been made to hold the property long term as an investment property. Any gain
or loss arising on remeasurement is recognised in profit or loss. When a property is reclassified from owner-occupied to an investment
property following a change in its use, any difference at the date of transfer between the carrying amount of the property immediately prior
to transfer and its fair value is recognised directly to the investment property revaluation reserve if it is an increase and to profit or loss if it is
a decrease.

(iv)
(v)
Investment properties (continued)
Transfers are made from investment properties to inventories when there is a change in use as evidenced by the commencement of
development with a view to sell. Investment properties are derecognised when they have either been disposed of or when the investment
property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the derecognition of
an investment property are recognised in profit or loss in the period of derecognition.
Leased assets
Leases for property, plant and equipment under which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership are classified
as finance leases. Other leases are classified as operating leases.
Finance leases are capitalised. Upon initial recognition, a lease asset is measured at the lower of its fair value and the present value of
minimum lease payments. Contingent rentals are written off as an expense of the accounting period in which they are incurred. Subsequent
to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy of the applicable asset. The interest component of
finance lease payments is charged to profit or loss.
Payments made under operating leases are charged against profits in equal instalments over the accounting periods covered by the lease
term, except where an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of benefits to be derived from the leased property.
Subsequent costs
The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when
that cost is incurred, if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the
item can be measured reliably. All other costs are recognised in the Income Statement as an expense.
Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of property,
plant and equipment. Land is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives in the current and comparative periods are as follows:
Buildings
Plant and equipment
Fixtures and fittings
Leasehold buildings and improvements
40 – 80 years
3 – 20 years
3 – 10 years
Shorter of estimated useful life and term of lease.
Assets are depreciated or amortised from the date of acquisition or, in respect of internally constructed assets, from the time an asset is
completed and held ready for use.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively if appropriate.
(h)
(i)
Intangible assets
Goodwill
Goodwill that arises from a business combination is initially measured as described in Note 1(c)(i).
Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortised. Goodwill is
reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.
As at the acquisition date, any goodwill acquired is allocated to each of the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the business
combination’s synergies.
Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill relates. Where the
recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. An impairment loss
recognised in respect of goodwill cannot be reversed.
The carrying amount of goodwill in respect of associates and jointly controlled entities is included in the carrying amount of the investment in
the associate or jointly controlled entity.
(ii)
Construction rights
Construction rights relate to the Group’s ability to develop accommodation in the Thredbo Alpine Resort. Construction rights are recognised
at cost and are derecognised as the rights are either sold or developed. The carrying value of construction rights is reviewed annually. Any
amounts no longer considered recoverable are written off, with the impairment loss recorded in profit or loss.

F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 1
NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(iii)
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets, which largely comprise management and leasehold rights and software, are stated at cost less accumulated
amortisation and impairment losses.
Management rights are amortised over the life of the management agreements on a straight-line basis.
Software for major operating systems is amortised over a four to five year period on a straight-line basis.
(i)
Impairment
The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than investment properties, are reviewed at each reporting date to
determine whether there is any indication of impairment. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of the
asset’s recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time. Where the carrying amount of
an asset or its related cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its
recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount of assets or cash-generating units is the greater of its fair value less costs to sell, and its value in use. In assessing
value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market
assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or cash-generating unit. For an asset that does not generate
largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Impairment of receivables is not recognised until objective evidence is available that a loss event has occurred. Receivables are individually
assessed for impairment.
An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds the recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss unless the asset or its cash-generating unit has previously been revalued, in which case
the impairment loss is recognised as a reversal to the extent of the previous revaluation, with any excess recognised in profit or loss.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are
assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed only to
the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or
amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
(j)
Investments
All investments are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given and including acquisition charges associated
with the investment.
After initial recognition, investments, which are classified as available-for-sale, are measured at fair value. Available-for-sale financial
assets comprise marketable equity securities.
For investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets, fair value is determined by reference to securities exchange quoted
market bid prices at the close of business at reporting date.
Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised as a separate component of equity in the available-for-sale investments
revaluation reserve until the investment is sold, collected or otherwise disposed of, or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at
which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is included in the Income Statement. An impairment loss recognised in
the Income Statement in respect of an available-for-sale investment is not reversed through the Income Statement.
(k)
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Work in progress is valued at cost. Cost is based on the first-in-
first-out principle and includes expenditure incurred in bringing inventories to their existing condition and location. The cost of inventories
may also include transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of inventories. (See
Note 1(f)).
Transfers are made from investment properties to inventories when there is a change in use as evidenced by the commencement of
development with a view to sale. (See Note 1(g)).
(l)
Contract work in progress
For equipment build and cinema installation contracts, profit is brought to account on a percentage of completion basis.

(i)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. Bank overdrafts that
are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash
equivalents for the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows.
Receivables
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Where the
payment terms for the sale of an asset are deferred, the receivable is discounted using the prevailing rate for a similar instrument of an
issuer with similar credit terms. The unwinding of the discount is treated as finance revenue.
Payables
Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost. Trade accounts payable are normally non-interest bearing and settled
within 30 days.
Borrowings
Interest bearing and non-interest bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to
initial recognition, borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in profit
or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Provisions
Employee benefits
Provision is made for employee benefits including annual leave for employees and the retirement benefits for qualifying non-executive
directors. The provision is calculated as the present value of the Group’s net obligation to pay such benefits resulting from the employees’
services provided up to the reporting date. The provisions due to be settled within 12 months have been calculated at undiscounted
amounts based on the remuneration rates the employer expects to pay after the reporting date and includes related on-costs.
The liability for employees’ benefits to long service leave represents the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by
the employer resulting from employees’ services provided up to the reporting date.
Liabilities for employee benefits which are not due to be settled within 12 months are discounted using the rates attaching to national
government securities at reporting date, which most closely match the terms of maturity of the related liabilities.
In determining the liability for employee benefits, consideration has been given to future increases in wage and salary rates, and the
Group’s experience with staff departures. Related on-costs have also been included in the liability.
(ii)
Onerous contracts
A provision for onerous contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the
unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under that contract. Before a provision is established, the Group recognises any impairment
loss on the assets associated with the contract.
The provision recognised is based on the excess of the estimated cash flows to meet the unavoidable costs under the contract over the
estimated cash flows to be received in relation to the contract, having regard to the risks of the activities relating to the contract. The net
estimated cash flows are discounted using market yields on national government guaranteed bonds with terms to maturity that match, as
closely as possible, the expected future cash flows.
(iii)
Decommissioning of leasehold improvements
A provision for the estimated cost of decommissioning leasehold improvements is made where a legal or constructive obligation exists.
In determining the provision for decommissioning costs, an assessment is made for each location of the likelihood and amount of the
decommissioning costs to be incurred in the future. The estimated future liability is discounted to a present value, with the discount amount
unwinding over the life of the leasehold asset as an interest expense recorded in profit or loss. The estimated decommissioning cost
recognised as a provision is included as part of the cost of the leasehold improvements at the time of installation or during the term of the
lease, as the liability for decommissioning is reassessed. This amount capitalised is then depreciated over the life of the asset.
(iv)
Other
Other provisions are recognised in the Statement of Financial Position when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a
result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are
determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost.

Superannuation plans
The Group contributes to several defined contribution superannuation plans. Contributions are charged against income as they are made.
These contributions are in accordance with the relevant trust deeds and the Superannuation Guarantee Levy.
Share-based payment transactions – employee share and option plans
Executive Performance Share Plan
Equity-based compensation benefits are provided to employees via the Executive Performance Share Plan.
The fair value of performance shares granted under the Executive Performance Share Plan is recognised as an employee expense over the
period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the shares. There is a corresponding increase in equity, being
recognition of a share-based payments reserve. The fair value of performance shares granted is measured at grant date. The fair value of
the shares was determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the shares
were granted.
To facilitate the operation of the Executive Performance Share Plan, a third party trustee is used to administer the trust which holds shares
allocated under the Executive Performance Share Plan.
Performance shares are subject to performance hurdles. The performance shares are recognised in the Statement of Financial Position as
restricted ordinary shares. Performance shares are included within the weighted average number of shares used as the denominator for
determining basic earnings per share and net tangible asset backing per share.
The Group incurs expenses on behalf of the trust. These expenses are in relation to administration costs of the trust and are recorded in the
Income Statement as incurred.
Employee Share Plan
The Group has in prior years issued shares to certain employees under an Employee Share Plan. No shares have been issued under this
plan since February 1998. Other than costs incurred in administering the scheme which are expensed as incurred, the scheme does not
result in any expense to the Group.
Revenue recognition
Revenues are recognised at fair value of the consideration received, net of the amount of goods and services tax (“GST”), or equivalent tax
in overseas jurisdictions.
Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods comprises revenue earned (net of returns, discounts, allowances and GST or equivalent tax in overseas
jurisdictions) from the provision of products to entities outside the Group. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant
risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have been transferred to the customer.
Rendering of services and deferred revenue
Revenue from rendering services is recognised in the period in which the service is provided. Revenue relating to future periods which is
not yet recognised because the service is yet to be provided or the admission made, is shown on the Statement of Financial Position as
deferred revenue.
Interest and dividend revenue
Interest income is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset. Dividend income is recognised on
the date that the Group’s right to receive payment is established.
Rental income
Rental income is recognised in the Income Statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are
recognised as an integral part of the total rental income.
Sale of non-current assets
The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the
asset at the time of disposal and the net proceeds from the disposal.

Customer loyalty programs
The Group operates loyalty programs where customers accumulate points for purchases made which entitles them to discounts on future
purchases. The award points are recognised as a separately identifiable component of the initial sale transaction, by allocating the fair value
of the consideration received between the award points and the components of the sale such that the award points are recognised at their
fair value. The fair value of the points is estimated based on the fair value of the goods and services received and adjusted to take into
account the expected forfeiture rate. Revenue from the award points is recognised when the points are redeemed. The amount of the
revenue is based on the number of points redeemed relative to the total number expected to be redeemed.
Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, or equivalent tax in overseas jurisdictions, except where the
amount of GST or equivalent tax incurred is not recoverable from the local taxation authorities. In these circumstances, the tax is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of expense.
Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST or equivalent tax included.
The net amount of the tax recoverable from, or payable to, taxation authorities is included as a current asset or liability in the Statement of
Financial Position.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. The GST or equivalent tax components of cash flows arising
from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, taxation authorities are classified as operating cash flows.
(v)
Finance costs
Finance costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in
connection with arrangement of borrowings and lease finance charges. Ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of
borrowings are capitalised and amortised over the life of the borrowings.
Finance costs are expensed as incurred unless they relate to qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets which take more than 12
months to get ready for their intended use or sale. Where funds are borrowed specifically for the acquisition, construction or production of a
qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs capitalised is that incurred in relation to that borrowing, net of any interest earned on those
borrowings. Where funds are borrowed generally, borrowing costs are capitalised using a weighted average interest rate applicable to the
entity’s borrowings during the period.
(w)
(i)
Taxation
Income tax
Income tax expense in the Income Statement for the periods presented comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in
profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive
income.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance
sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are
not provided for: taxable temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that
affect neither accounting nor taxable profit; and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not
reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying
amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by
the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a
net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset
can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
(ii)
Tax consolidation regime
The Company and its Australian wholly owned subsidiaries are part of a tax consolidated group. As a consequence, all members of the tax
consolidated group are taxed as a single entity. Amalgamated Holdings Limited is the head entity within the tax consolidated group.

Segment reporting
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses,
including revenues and expenses from transactions with other Group segments. All segments’ operating results are regularly reviewed by
the Group’s Managing Director to make decisions about resources to be allocated to a segment and to assess its performance, and for
which discrete financial information is available.
Segment results that are reported to the Managing Director include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be
allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly corporate head office assets, head office expenses, and income tax
assets and liabilities.
Additions to non-current segment assets are the total cost incurred during the period to acquire assets that include amounts expected to be
recovered over more than 12 months after the year end date. Amounts include property, plant and equipment, but exclude financial
instruments and deferred tax assets.
(y)
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the profit for the period attributable to members of the Company by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares of the Company.
Diluted EPS adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic EPS to take into account the after-income tax effect of interest and other
financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued
for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(z)
Accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of
future events that may have a financial impact on the Group and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Accounting estimates and assumptions
The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
within the next financial year are discussed below:
(i)
Recoverable amount of assets
The Group has undertaken assessments of whether long-lived assets including property assets, goodwill and plant and equipment could be
deemed to be impaired. In assessing the recoverability of these assets, assumptions are made regarding the estimated future cash flows
and other factors, including the pre-tax discount rate to be applied, to determine the recoverable amount of the respective assets. The
estimate of cash flow is based upon, among other things, certain assumptions about expected future operating performance. Estimates of
discounted cash flow may differ from actual cash flow due to factors such as economic conditions, changes to business models or changes
in operating performance. If the sum of the discounted estimated cash flows is less than the current carrying value, an impairment loss,
measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, is recognised.
The Group has also previously recognised impairment write-downs for property, plant and equipment. Where trading circumstances
improve at the previously impaired site, an assessment of recoverable value is made to determine if an impairment loss can be reversed,
net of depreciation that would have been incurred had no impairment loss been recognised. These determinations also require estimates
and assumptions with regard to the future trading performance of those assets.
Refer Note 17 for details of impairment losses recognised and prior period impairments written back.
(ii)
Fair value of investment properties
Investment properties are independently revalued to fair value each reporting period, with any gain or loss arising on remeasurement being
recognised in the Income Statement. In assessing the fair value of properties, a number of assumptions are made at the end of each
reporting period regarding future cash flows, future property market economic conditions and other factors including cash flow discount
rates and rental capitalisation rates.
The carrying value of investment properties is disclosed in Note 18 along with a summary of the movements in the carrying value.

NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(iii)
Share-based payment transactions
The Group measures the cost of the Executive Performance Share Plan by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date
at which the shares are granted. The fair value of performance shares granted is determined by an external valuer using a Monte Carlo
simulation model using the assumptions detailed in Note 30.
Critical judgements
Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the
financial statements is:
(i)
Classification of properties
The Group holds three properties which were previously operating cinema sites. Pending completion and approval of plans for the long
term use of these properties, they have not been classified as investment properties. These properties continue to be accounted for using
the cost basis rather than the fair value basis which is applied to investment properties.
(ii)
Contingent assets and liabilities
Refer Note 32 for estimates and judgements made in relation to contingent assets and liabilities.
At 30 June 2011, there is a significant contingent asset relating to disputed value added tax (“VAT”) provided for or paid by controlled
entities in Germany. The determination of whether a possible amount receivable is a contingent asset or an asset that can be recognised in
the Statement of Financial Position requires judgement on the degree of probability that future events, outside the control of the Group, will
occur. For an asset to be recognised in the Statement of Financial Position, the occurrence of future events must be judged to be virtually
certain at balance date.
(aa)
Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business that represents a separate major line of business that has been disposed
of or is held for sale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be
classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative Income Statement and
Statement of Comprehensive Income are re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

NOTE 2 – SEGMENT REPORTING
Segment information is presented in respect of the Group’s reporting segments. These are the Group’s main strategic business segments and have
differing risks and rewards associated with the business due to their different product or service and geographic markets. For each of these
operating segments, the Group’s Managing Director regularly reviews internal management reports.
Information regarding the results of each reportable segment is included below. Performance is measured based on segment profit before income
tax as included in the internal management reports. Segment profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information
is the most relevant in evaluating the results of segments relative to other businesses. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis.
Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.
Unallocated items mainly comprise interest bearing loans and borrowings and borrowing costs, interest income and corporate head office assets
and expenses.
Operating segments
The Group comprises the following main operating segments:
Cinema Exhibition Australia
Includes the cinema exhibition operations in Australia.
Cinema Exhibition New Zealand
Includes cinema exhibition operations in New Zealand as well as a joint venture interest in two cinema sites in Fiji. These cinema exhibition
operations were acquired on 18 February 2010.
Cinema Exhibition Germany
Includes the cinema exhibition operations in Germany.
Cinema Exhibition United Arab Emirates
Includes the Group’s 49% investment in cinema exhibition operations in the United Arab Emirates. The Group’s interest in the United Arab
Emirates associate was sold on 25 October 2010. See Note 5.
Entertainment Technology
Includes theatre equipment supply and servicing and the manufacture of film processors and related equipment.
Hotels
Includes the ownership operation and management of hotels in Australia and overseas.
Thredbo Alpine Resort
Includes all the operations of the resort including property development activities.
Leisure/Attractions
Includes ancillary leisure and other activities including Featherdale Wildlife Park and The State Theatre.
Property and Other Investments
Includes property rental, investment properties and available-for-sale investments.
Geographical information
Also presented is information on the Group’s split of revenue and non-current assets by geographic location. Geographic revenue is based on the
geographical location of customers. Segment assets are based on the geographical location of the assets. The Group operates in Australia, New
Zealand and Germany. The Group also operated in the United Arab Emirates until 25 October 2010.

NOTE 5 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On 25 October 2010, the Group sold its 49% share in an associate, MAF Greater Union LLC. The consideration from the sale was $78,583,000
and the profit on the sale was $60,318,000. MAF Greater Union LLC operated a cinema circuit based in the United Arab Emirates which, at the
date of sale, consisted of five cinema sites and a total of 50 screens.
The associate did not meet the criteria for held for sale and consequently was not shown as a discontinued operation as at 30 June 2010. The
comparative Income Statement and Statement of Comprehensive Income have been re-presented to show the discontinued operations
separately from continuing operations.
Profit attributable to discontinued operations was as follows:
Results of discontinued operations
Share of net profit accounted for using the equity method
Other costs
Profit before income tax
Income tax expense
Net profit before gain on sale of discontinued operations
Profit on sale of discontinued operations
Income tax expense – sale of discontinued operations
Profit after tax from discontinued operations

Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the Group can utilise the benefits.
Included in the deferred tax assets not recognised is the gross value of tax revenue losses arising in Germany of $74,109,000 (2010:
$80,157,000). The availability of these tax losses is subject to certain utilisation limits and ongoing availability tests under German tax law.
At 30 June 2011, there was no recognised deferred income tax liability (2010: $nil) for taxes that would be payable on the unremitted earnings of
certain of the Group’s subsidiaries, associates or incorporated jointly controlled entities.

The financial effect of the final dividend and special dividend in respect of the year has not been brought to account in the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2011 and will be recognised in subsequent financial statements.
A Dividend Reinvestment Plan was available for the interim 2010 dividend paid on 29 March 2010. For details of shares issued under this plan,
refer Note 26.
Franking credit balance
The amount of franking credits available are:
Franking account balance as at the beginning of the financial year at 30% (2010: 30%)
Franking credits from the payment of income tax and income tax payable
Franking debits from the payment of dividends
Franking credits from the receipt of dividends

The impact on the franking account of dividends proposed or declared before the financial report was authorised for issue but not recognised as
a distribution to equity holders during the period is to reduce the balance by $18,491,000 (2010: $15,692,000).
The ability to utilise franking credits is dependent upon the Company being in a sufficient positive net asset position and also having adequate
available cash flow liquidity.

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on 30 – 90 day terms. The Group’s exposure to credit and currency risks related to
trade and other receivables is disclosed in Note 29.
Allowances are made for impairment losses until such time that the Group is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible; at that
point, the amount considered irrecoverable is written off against the asset directly.
As at 30 June 2011, trade receivables with a value of $732,000 (2010: $591,000) were impaired and fully provided for. Movements in the
allowance for trade receivables are as follows:
Balance at the beginning of the year
Charge
Provision no longer required
Net foreign currency differences on translation of foreign operations

The Group’s investment is in a company listed on the ASX. A 10% increase in the market price of the shares in this company at the reporting
date would have increased equity by $753,000 after tax (2010: an increase of $731,000); an equal change in the opposite direction would have
decreased equity by $753,000 after tax (2010: a decrease of $731,000).

NOTE 17 – PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued)
Independent valuations of interest in land and buildings
In assessing current values for the Group’s interest in land and buildings and integral plant and equipment, including long term leasehold land
and improvements, directors have relied upon independent valuations from registered qualified valuers. Except for investment properties, which
are revalued every half year (refer Note 18), valuations are generally carried out on a progressive three year cycle. The last valuations have
been completed as at June 2010 and June 2009.
Most recent valuations of interest in land and buildings, excluding investment properties
Due to the diversity of the Group’s operations, valuations have been prepared on a highest and best
alternate use or existing use basis. A summary, by year of the last valuation, is set out as follows:
Highest and best alternate use

The written-down book value of plant and equipment which is deemed integral to land and buildings, has been determined to total approximately
$83,200,000 as at 30 June 2011 (2010: $73,500,000).
Impairments
Land and buildings
The trading performance of certain hotel properties caused the Group to assess their recoverable amount. There were no impairment losses
recognised in respect of land and buildings in the year to 30 June 2011 (2010: impairment losses totalling $5,800,000 recognised).
Hotel properties are treated as separate cash-generating units and their recoverable values were estimated based on their value in use. In
determining the estimated value in use, discount rates in the range of 11.4% to 12.8% (2010: 10.8% to 11.5%) per annum were used. Cash
flows were projected based on actual operating results, with longer term cash flows, after the initial forecast periods, extrapolated using average
expected growth rates in the range of 2.5% to 3.2% (2010: 2%) per annum.
Given the long life nature of these assets, the estimates of their recoverable value in use are particularly sensitive to changes in certain key
assumptions. Although all assumptions used are considered to be appropriate at this time, an increase of 1 percentage point in the discount
rate, for the hotel properties assessed, would result in an impairment loss of $8,537,000 being recognised. A 10% decrease in the forecast
earnings would result in an impairment loss of $7,373,000 being recognised.

NOTE 17 – PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued)
Leasehold improvements and plant and equipment
During the year ended 30 June 2011, impairment write-downs totalling $655,000 were made in respect of plant and equipment and leasehold
improvements at a small number cinema sites in Germany and New Zealand. Also during the year ended 30 June 2011, impairment write-
downs made in prior years for a number of other cinema sites in Germany were reversed to the value of $325,000 (2010: impairment reversal of
$986,000). These write-downs and write-backs were deemed appropriate, using the value in use method, due to changes in cash flow generated
by the sites resulting from a general improvement or decline in trading performance. Write-downs were also made where there is a planned
closure of a site. The impairment write-backs did not exceed the carrying amount of the assets that would have been determined, net of
depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised. In assessing the recoverable amount for plant and equipment and leasehold
improvements at these cinema sites, a discount rate of 12.2% to 12.65% (2010:12.2%) per annum has been applied to projected future cash
flows which included a growth rate of 2% (2010: 2%) per annum.
During the prior year ended 30 June 2010, impairment write-downs totalling $5,525,000 were booked in relation to plant and equipment at the
Gowings and State Theatre office buildings in Sydney. These write-downs arose due to the redevelopment of the buildings and were determined
by conducting a line-by-line assessment of the recoverable value of plant and equipment as detailed in the Group’s asset registers.

The carrying amount of investment properties is the fair value of the properties as determined by a registered qualified independent valuer. Fair
values were determined having regard to recent market transactions for similar properties in the same location as the Group’s investment
properties. Valuers used capitalisation rates on reversionary rental yields in the range of 6.5% to 9.0% (2010: 6.75% to 9.50%) to determine fair
values for the six investment properties held by the Group.
Investment properties comprise a number of commercial properties that are leased to third parties and which are held to derive rental income or
capital appreciation or both. Each of the leases for investment properties contains an initial non-cancellable period of between five to 15 years.
Subsequent renewals are negotiated with the lessee. No contingent rents are charged for these investment properties.
During the financial year ended 30 June 2011, $7,004,000 (2010: $4,911,000) was recognised as rental income for investment properties in the
Income Statement with $1,431,000 (2010: $1,281,000) incurred in respect of direct costs, including $189,000 (2010: $123,000) for repairs and
maintenance.

The recoverable value of goodwill relating to the Event Cinemas exhibition business in New Zealand and goodwill relating to the Group’s share
of a cinema joint venture in Germany has been determined by a value in use calculation. This calculation uses cash flow projections based on
actual operating results and projected five year results, with cash flows beyond the five year period being projected using a per annum growth
rate of 2%, which is considered appropriate given economic indicators and the expected long term increase in revenue and operating costs in
these markets. Pre-tax discount rates of 12.2% and 12.65% per annum have been used in discounting the projected cash flows. In
management’s assessment, there are no reasonable possible changes in assumptions that would give rise to an impairment.

The Group’s secured bank debt facilities comprise the following:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
The above facilities mature on 10 July 2012. Refinancing of bank facilities will be undertaken prior to 30 June 2012. These facilities are
supported by interlocking guarantees from most Group entities and are secured by specific property mortgages (refer Note 17). Debt drawn
under these facilities bears interest at the relevant inter-bank benchmark reference rate plus a margin of between 0.45% and 0.90% per
annum. At 30 June 2011, the Group had drawn $46,321,000 (2010: $40,624,000) under the debt facilities, of which 17% (2010: 20%) was
subject to interest rate swaps used for hedging.
Other loans – Germany
In addition to the above facilities, wholly owned subsidiaries in Germany have a working capital facility totalling €9,000,000 (A$12,154,000),
secured by a letter of credit and bank guarantees drawn under the credit support facility in Australia. Debt drawn under this facility bears
interest at the relevant inter-bank benchmark reference rate plus a margin of 0.80% per annum. This facility is subject to annual review. At 30
June 2011, the Group had no debt drawn under this facility (2010: $nil).
Finance lease liability – Germany
During the year to 30 June 2011, a wholly owned subsidiary in Germany had a property finance lease which was fully paid by period end
(2010: A$3,934,000 outstanding). This lease bore interest at the relevant inter-bank benchmark reference rate plus a margin of 1.75% per
annum.

Onerous contracts
The onerous contracts provision relate to long term non-cancellable operating leases in respect of certain cinema sites in New Zealand.
Provisions have been raised for the forecast net deficits resulting from obligations under the leases. For further detail on the basis of
accounting, refer Note 1(q)(ii).
Insurance loss contingencies and other claims
The provision relates to estimated costs to be incurred in respect of various claims that are expected to be settled within 12 months of the
balance date.
Decommissioning of leasehold improvements
The decommissioning of leasehold improvements provision has been raised in respect of “make-good” obligations under long term lease
contracts for cinema sites. In determining the provision, an assessment has been made, for each location, of the likelihood that a
decommissioning cost will be incurred in the future and, where applicable, the level of costs to be incurred. Uncertainty exists in estimating the
level of costs to be incurred in the future because of the long term nature of cinema leases. The basis of accounting is set out in Note 1(q)(iii).

NOTE 29 – FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Financial risk
The Group’s exposure to financial risks, objectives, policies and processes for managing the risks including methods used to measure the risks,
and the management of capital are presented below.
The Group’s activities expose it to the following financial risks:
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
credit risk;
liquidity risk; and
market risk, including interest rate risk and currency risk.
The Board has overall responsibility for the oversight of the risk management framework. Risk management policies are established to identify
and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk
management policies and systems are reviewed regularly and modified as appropriate to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s
activities.
The Audit Committee oversees how management has established and monitors internal compliance and control systems and to ensure the
appropriate and effective management of the above risks. The Audit Committee is assisted in its oversight role by the Internal Auditor. The
Internal Auditor undertakes reviews of risk management controls and procedures in accordance with an annual plan approved by the Audit
Committee. The results of these Internal Audit reviews are reported to the Audit Committee.
Credit risk
Credit risk arises from trade and other receivables outstanding, cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with
banks and financial institutions. It is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to the financial instrument fails to meet its
contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s trade receivables from customers.
Trade and other receivables
The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the Group’s
customer base, including the default risk of the industry and country in which customers operate, have less of an influence on credit risk.
Exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. Management has established a credit policy under which each new customer requiring
credit over a certain amount is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the Group’s standard payment terms and conditions are offered.
Purchase limits are established for major customers, which represents the maximum open amount without requiring additional approval from
management.
The Group has established an allowance for impairment that represents their estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other
receivables. The main component of this allowance relates to exposures for specific debtors.
Investments and derivatives
Investments of surplus cash and deposits and derivative financial instruments are with banks with high credit ratings. Given their high credit
ratings, management does not expect any counterparty to fail to meet its obligations.
At 30 June 2011, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying
amount of each financial asset, including derivative financial instruments, in the Statement of Financial Position.
Guarantees
All guarantees are in respect of obligations of subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities in which the Group has an interest. Details of
guarantees given by the Group are provided in Note 32. Details of guarantees given by the parent entity are provided in Note 28.
The Group’s exposure to credit risk
The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:
Unquoted investment in other entities
Available-for-sale financial assets
Trade and other receivables
Cash and cash equivalents
Short term deposits
Security deposits in respect of long term operating leases

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group manages liquidity risk by
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. Group Treasury aims to maintain flexibility in funding by keeping committed credit lines
available with a number of counterparties. Bank debt facilities available to the Group are detailed in Note 23.

For derivative financial assets and liabilities, maturities detailed in the table above approximate periods that cash flows and impact on profit are
expected to occur.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates and will affect the Group’s income or the
value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within
acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.
The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and foreign exchange contracts to hedge exposures to fluctuations
in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Derivatives are used exclusively for hedging purposes and are not traded or used as speculative
instruments. This is carried out under treasury policies approved by the Board.
Interest rate risk
The Group manages interest rate exposures on borrowings in accordance with a Board approved treasury policy that specifies parameters for
hedging including hedging percentages and approved hedging instruments. The policy specifies upper and lower hedging limits set for specific
timeframes out to five years. These limits may be varied with approval of the Board.
At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Group’s interest bearing financial instruments was:
Fixed rate instruments
Financial assets
Financial liabilities
Variable rate instruments

The Group manages interest rate risk in accordance with a Board approved policy covering the types of instruments, range of protection and
duration of instruments. The financial instruments cover interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements. Maturities of these instruments are up
to a maximum of five years. Interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements allow the Group to raise long term borrowings at floating rates and
swap a portion of those borrowings into fixed rates.
The approved range of interest rate cover is based on the projected debt levels for each currency and reduced for each future year. The Group
currently hedges interest bearing debt in AUD and NZD with cover at 30 June 2011 extending to March 2012 in AUD and to September 2011 in
NZD. At 30 June 2011, due to the low level of Group debt, the Group had only 17% (2010: 20%) of debt hedged.

NOTE 29 – FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
The Group classifies interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges and states them at fair value in the Statement of Financial Position.
Details on the major components of the Group’s interest bearing liabilities are disclosed in Notes 22 and 23.
Sensitivity analysis
Sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments
The Group accounts for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The movement in fair value of interest rate swaps that have
been deemed ineffective, are accounted for through profit or loss. Where the Group’s derivatives (interest rate swaps) qualify for hedge
accounting, the movement in fair value of those effective interest rate swaps is accounted for in equity in the hedging reserve. Therefore, only
those interest rate swaps that have been deemed ineffective are exposed to market rate changes that would impact on the profit or loss.
At 30 June 2011, if prevailing market interest rates had moved by +/- 1% (100 basis points) per annum from year end rates, the effect on the
Group’s post-tax profit and equity, assuming all other variables remain constant, would have been as illustrated below:

The movement in profit is due to the higher or lower interest income or costs resulting from a change in rate receivable or payable on variable
rate deposits, debt and net interest rate swaps. The movement in equity in the hedging reserve is due to an increase or decrease in the fair
value of derivative instruments designated in cash flow hedges, net of tax.
Foreign exchange risk
The Group is exposed to currency risk on purchases, borrowings and surplus funds that are denominated in a currency other than the respective
functional currencies of Group entities, primarily the Australian dollar (“AUD”), but also the New Zealand dollar (“NZD”), Euro (“EUR”) and Great
British pound (“GBP”). Transactions undertaken by Group entities are primarily denominated in AUD, NZD, EUR and US dollars (“USD”).
The Group manages foreign currency exposures in accordance with a Board approved treasury policy that specifies parameters for hedging,
including hedging percentages and approved hedging instruments. At any point in time, the Group hedges up to 60% of “highly probable” foreign
currency exposures and 100% of confirmed foreign currency exposures. Typically, foreign currency exposures are hedged with the utilisation of
forward exchange contracts.
The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk in AUD equivalents at the reporting date was as follows, based on notional amounts:
Cash and cash equivalents
Trade receivables
Secured bank loans
Trade payables

Hedging of net investment in foreign subsidiaries
The Group’s NZD denominated bank loan is designated as a hedge of the foreign currency exposure to the Group’s net investment in its
subsidiaries in New Zealand. The carrying amount of the loan at 30 June 2011 was $46,321,000 (2010: $40,624,000). A foreign exchange profit
of $1,764,000 (2010: loss of $1,175,000) was recognised in equity on translation of the loan to AUD.
The majority of the movement in the AUD/NZD sensitivity analysis in the table above is attributed to movements in the holding value of this NZD
bank loan (and associated interest rate swaps). This movement would have an opposite movement in the AUD holding value of the underlying
hedged investment in New Zealand.

Estimation of fair values
The following summarises the major methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments reflected in the table
above:
Trade and other receivables/payables
For receivables/payables with a remaining life of less than one year, the notional amount is deemed to reflect the fair value. All other
receivables/payables are discounted to determine the fair value where an appropriate rate of interest is not received/charged in respect of the
amount.
Quoted investments
Fair value is determined by reference to the securities exchange quoted market prices at close of business on 30 June, without any deduction
for transaction costs.
Interest bearing loans and borrowings
Fair value is calculated based on discounted expected future principal and interest cash flows.
Finance lease liabilities
The fair value is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at market interest rates for similar lease arrangements. The
estimated fair value reflects the assessed current interest rate for a similar lease where this rate has been determined to be different from the
rate charged.
Derivatives
Bank mark-to-market valuations have been used to determine the fair value of interest rate swaps and forward exchange contracts. These have
been back tested against valuations generated by the Group’s treasury system pricing module, using market quoted data as at 30 June. The
system uses discounted cash flow techniques to value financial instruments.
Interest rates used for determining fair value

Capital management
The Group manages its capital with the objective of maintaining a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence
and to have the capacity to take advantage of opportunities that will enhance the existing businesses and enable future growth and expansion.
The Board monitors the return on capital, which the Group defines as operating profit after income tax divided by shareholders’ equity and long
term debt. The Board also monitors the Group’s gearing ratio, being net debt divided by shareholders’ equity.
It is recognised that the Group operates in business segments in which operating results may be subject to volatility and the Board continuously
reviews the capital structure to ensure sufficient:
surplus funding capacity is available;
(cid:120)
funds are available for capital expenditure and to implement longer term business development strategies; and
(cid:120)
funds are available to maintain appropriate dividend levels.
(cid:120)
There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.
No Group entity is subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

Executive Performance Share Plan
The establishment of the Executive Performance Share Plan was approved by shareholders at the 2006 Annual General Meeting.
Employees receiving awards under the Executive Performance Share Plan are those of a senior level and above (including the Managing
Director).
An employee awarded performance shares is not legally entitled to shares in the Company before the performance shares allocated under
the plan vest. However, the employee can vote and receive dividends in respect of shares allocated to them. Once the shares have vested
which is dependent on the Group achieving its earnings per share (“EPS”) and total shareholder return (“TSR”) targets, they remain in the
trust (refer Note 1(s)(i)) until the earliest of the employee leaving the Group, the tenth anniversary of the date the performance shares were
awarded or the Board approving an application for their release. Award, vesting and exercise under the plan are made for no consideration.
The performance period is three years.
Set out below are summaries of performance shares awarded under the plan:

Fair value of performance shares granted
The assessed fair value at grant date of performance shares granted under the Executive Performance Share Plan during the year ended 30
June 2011 was $5.98 (2010 issue: $5.78) for those shares that have EPS hurdles and $3.94 (2010 issue: $4.72) for those shares that have
TSR hurdles. The fair value of each performance share is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo model with the following
weighted average assumptions used for each grant:
Dividend yield (per annum)
Expected volatility
Risk-free rate (per annum)
Share price (30 day volume weighted average price)

The expected life of the performance shares is based on historical data and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur.
The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may also not necessarily be the
actual outcome.
Tax Exempt Share Plan
All Australian resident permanent employees (excluding directors) are eligible to participate in the Tax Exempt Share Plan. The Tax Exempt
Share Plan enables participating employees to make salary sacrifice contributions to purchase shares on-market on a monthly basis. The
shares in the Tax Exempt Share Plan are restricted from being traded and must be held for a minimum of three years whilst the participant
remains an employee of the Group. Trading restrictions are lifted on the cessation of employment.
Offers under the Tax Exempt Share Plan are at the discretion of the Company. All shares acquired under the Tax Exempt Share Plan rank
equally with all other ordinary shares.
The total number of shares purchased during the year by employees, under the Tax Exempt Share Plan, totalled 15,378 shares (2010: nil
shares).
Employee Share Plan
At 30 June 2011, the total shares issued under the plan was 171,720 (2010: 174,620). There were no shares issued during the year. The
plan is closed to new members and no offers have been made under the plan since 1998.
The market value of ordinary shares at 30 June 2011 was $5.80 (2010: $5.70).
Note 26 provides details of the movement in the ordinary share capital during the year.

The Group leases various properties, including cinema sites, under operating leases. The leases typically run for periods up to 20 years, with
varying terms, escalation clauses and renewal or extension options. The head lease in respect of the Thredbo Village and ski area is for a
longer period, being 50 years from 29 June 2007.
A small number of leases have commitments in respect of contingent rental payments which arise when the operating performance of a site
exceeds a pre-determined amount. Also, there are rentals which are determined as the higher of a base rental and a fixed percentage of a
defined amount reflecting the operating performance of a site or a base rental plus a fixed percentage of the net profit from the site. Contingent
rental payments recognised as an expense in the period for the Group amounted to $3,307,000 (2010: $5,125,000).

lease, leases are for periods ranging between one to 15 years and have varying terms, escalation clauses and renewal options. There are
approximately 700 sub-leases under the Thredbo head lease. Thredbo sub-leases consist of long term accommodation sub-leases for holiday
apartments, chalets and lodges and also retail sub-leases for shops. Long term accommodation sub-leases are typically for periods mirroring
the head lease, which was renewed for a further 50 year period on 29 June 2007.

Claim against Group entity for additional charges
A Group entity has received a claim for the payment of additional charges covering the last six years, the basis of which is disputed by the
Group entity. It is estimated that the Group’s maximum liability under this claim is $668,000 (2010: $510,000), plus interest and legal costs. No
provision has been established against this amount as it is currently not considered that the success of this claim is probable.
Claims for personal injury
The nature of the Group’s operations results in claims for personal injury being received from time to time. The directors believe that the
outcome of any current claims outstanding, which are not provided against in the financial statements, will not have a significant impact on the
operating result of the Group in future reporting periods.
The directors are of the opinion that provisions are not required in respect of these matters, as it is not probable that a future sacrifice of
economic benefits will be required or the amount is not capable of reliable measurement at balance date.

NOTE 32 – CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (continued)
Contingent assets
Taxation – overseas controlled entities
A contingent asset exists at 30 June 2011 amounting to $20,483,000. This amount relates to disputed VAT, totalling $18,921,000, provided for
or paid by German controlled and joint venture entities on a number of food products sold during the period since 1 January 2005, plus
potential interest receivable thereon of $1,562,000. In March 2011, the European Court of Justice ruled in favour of the arguments presented
by a competitor on a similar issue. Following this decision, the local tax authority has made preliminary refunds to the Group totalling
$9,886,000 to 30 June 2011 and covering the earlier years of the dispute. Preliminary refunds received, which are included in the above
contingent asset amount, have not been recognised as income and are held on the Statement of Financial Position as a current liability as at
30 June 2011.
At 30 June 2011, the German Federal Fiscal Court had not made a final determination on this case, which was required to resolve the dispute.
A favourable outcome to this dispute was considered probable at 30 June 2011; however, not virtually certain due to the outstanding Court
decision. Subsequent to balance date, on 18 August 2011, the German Federal Fiscal Court delivered its decision on the competitor’s case,
which was consistent with the earlier decision by the European Court of Justice. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it is expected that this
contingent asset will be recognised as income in the financial year to 30 June 2012; refer Note 41 – Events Subsequent to Reporting Date.
NOTE 33 – DEED OF CROSS GUARANTEE
Pursuant to ASIC Class Order 98/1418 (as amended) dated 13 August 1998, the wholly owned subsidiaries listed below are relieved from the
Corporations Act 2001 requirements for preparation, audit and lodgement of financial reports, and directors’ reports.
It is a condition of the Class Order that the Company and each of the subsidiaries enter into a Deed of Cross Guarantee. The effect of the
deed is that the Company guarantees to each creditor, payment in full of any debt in the event of winding up of any of the subsidiaries under
certain provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. If a winding up occurs under other provisions of the Act, the Company will only be liable in the
event that after six months any creditor has not been paid in full. The subsidiaries have also given similar guarantees in the event that the
Company is wound up.
The subsidiaries subject to the deed are:

NOTE 34 – BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
2011
Businesses in Australia
On 28 July 2010, the Group acquired the Moonlight Cinema business for cash consideration of $1,750,000. The Group incurred acquisition
related costs of $27,000 related to external legal fees and due diligence. These costs have been expensed in the Group’s Income Statement.
Moonlight Cinema is an outdoor cinema operation with five sites screening films in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide during
the three month summer season. This acquisition adds to the diversity of the Group’s Australian cinema circuit.
On 24 May 2011, the Group acquired Ducks Nuts Bar and Grill for consideration of $1,050,000. The Group incurred acquisition related costs
of $46,000 related to external legal fees and due diligence. These costs have been included in other operating expenses in the Group’s
Income Statement. Ducks Nuts Bar and Grill is a gaming and bar business situated in Darwin, Northern Territory.
Since the dates of acquisition to 30 June 2011, these two businesses contributed revenue of $4,523,000 and a profit before tax of $12,000. If
the businesses had been acquired on 1 July 2010, management estimates that revenue contributed would have been $8,650,000 and the
profit before tax contributed for the period would have been $348,000.
The combined fair value of net tangibles assets and liabilities acquired as part of the above acquisitions amounted to $209,000, which largely
comprised plant and equipment and inventories. As a result of the acquisitions, intangible assets, being goodwill, increased by $2,653,000.

NOTE 34 – BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (continued)
2010
Cinema business in New Zealand and Fiji
On 18 February 2010, a wholly owned subsidiary completed the transaction to purchase the SKYCITY cinema business based in New
Zealand and Fiji.
The purchase price was NZD61,100,000 (AUD47,817,000) before a recovery of NZD5,009,000 (AUD3,920,000) for the working capital
balances as at the acquisition date. The business included 14 cinemas with 106 screens located throughout New Zealand, a 50% interest in
Rialto Cinemas in New Zealand (three cinemas with 16 screens) and a 66.67% interest in SKYCITY Cinemas Fiji (two cinemas with 10
screens). All cinema properties in New Zealand were leasehold, whereas the sites in Fiji were owned. The acquisition of this business was
considered an appropriate strategic addition to the Group’s existing cinema businesses.
The wholly owned New Zealand-based business has subsequently been renamed Event Cinemas.
Since the date of acquisition to 30 June 2010, the New Zealand cinema business, including the Group’s interest in the Rialto Cinemas and Fiji
Cinemas, contributed revenue of $21,970,000 and a profit before tax of $694,000. If this business had been acquired on 1 July 2009,
management estimates that revenue contributed would have been $76,000,000 and the profit before tax contributed for the period would have
been $6,100,000. In determining the above estimated profit amount for the period from 1 July 2009, management has taken into account the
impact of the fair value adjustments made at acquisition as if they had occurred on 1 July 2009.

The above fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities were determined based upon the information available as at 30 June 2010.
Subsequent to this initial fair value assessment, a minor adjustment to provisions totalling $87,000 has been made.
The fair values of the Group’s non-controlling interest in the Rialto Cinema business in New Zealand and the Fiji Cinema business have been
determined as the present value of the estimated future cash flows. Pre-tax discount rates of 12.4% and 14.4% per annum were used in
determining the fair values.

Goodwill was attributable mainly to the established market position of cinema sites within the cinema business in New Zealand and synergies
expected to be achieved through combining this business with the Group’s existing cinema businesses. None of the goodwill recognised was
expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Cinema acquisitions – Australia
On 14 October 2009, a wholly owned subsidiary expanded its existing cinema operations by acquiring the leasehold interest in the Beverly
Hills and Cronulla cinema complexes in south-western and southern Sydney.
Effective 26 December 2009, a wholly owned subsidiary acquired the remaining 50% interest in the Glendale Cinema not already owned by
the Group. Glendale is in the western suburbs of Newcastle.
On 17 June 2010, a wholly owned subsidiary acquired the leasehold interest in a cinema site in Noosa, Queensland.
Consideration paid for these sites including the additional 50% interest in the Glendale site totalled $17,892,000 and consisted of cinema
assets and liabilities and leasehold rights to the properties.
Since the dates of acquisition to 30 June 2010, these cinema sites, including the additional 50% interest in the Glendale site, contributed
revenue of $11,431,000 and profit of $2,125,000. If these sites had been acquired or 100% owned on 1 July 2009, management estimates that
revenue contributed from these sites would have been $21,650,000 and the profit contributed for the period would have been $3,770,000.

Leasehold and management rights
Leasehold and management rights recognised as an intangible asset in the Statement of Financial Position from 1 July 2009 to 30 June 2010
as a result of these acquisitions, was determined as follows:
Total cash consideration paid
Add: Carrying value of 50% interest in Glendale Cinema already owned
Subtotal
Less: Value of identifiable assets and liabilities
Leasehold and management rights recognised
$’000
17,892
1,220

13,914
Leasehold and management rights were attributable to the existing goodwill arising from the market position of each site in their admissions
catchment area and, for the Beverly Hills, Cronulla and Noosa cinemas, the management synergies expected to be achieved from integration
of these sites with the Group’s existing cinema operations systems. This asset would be amortised over the term of the lease for each of the
sites, which range from 16 to 20 years. Leasehold and management rights recognised were not deductible for income tax purposes.
Acquisition related costs incurred
The Group incurred acquisition related costs of $979,000 in respect of the above acquisitions from 1 July 2009 during the financial year to
30 June 2010, which related largely to legal fees and due diligence costs. These costs have been expensed within the Cinema Exhibition
Australia segment during the period and have been included in the Group’s Income Statement.

VAT dispute in Germany
Note 32 – Contingent Assets and Liabilities, refers to an amount of $20,483,000 relating to disputed VAT totalling $18,921,000, provided for or
paid by German controlled and joint venture entities on a number of food products sold during the period since 1 January 2005, plus potential
interest receivable thereon of $1,562,000. Included in the total VAT in dispute is an amount of $3,304,000 relating to the financial year to 30
June 2011. Subsequent to the reporting date, on 18 August 2011, the German Federal Fiscal Court ruled in favour of a competitor on a similar
dispute. Although this Court ruling is only binding for the parties to this case, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it is expected that the
Company’s controlled and joint venture entities will also now obtain a favourable outcome to their disputes. It is therefore expected that the
contingent asset noted at 30 June 2011 will be recognised as income in the financial year to 30 June 2012.

Report on the financial report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of the Group comprising Amalgamated Holdings Limited (the Company) and the
entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year, which comprises the statement of financial position as
at 30 June 2011, and income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash
flows for the year ended on that date, Notes 1 to 41 comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information and the directors’ declaration of the Group.
Directors’ responsibility for the financial report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with
Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to
enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the
directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the
financial statements of the Group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with
Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit
engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The
procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s
preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the
directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We performed the procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the
Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards, a true and fair view which is consistent with our understanding of the
Group’s financial position and of its performance.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
Auditor’s opinion
In our opinion:
(a)
the financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
(i)
giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2011 and of its performance for the year ended
on that date; and
(ii)
complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.
(b)
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 26 to 36 in the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2011. The
directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with Section
300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the remuneration report, based on our audit conducted
in accordance with auditing standards.
