We pride ourselves as having a high level of integrity and in inspiring a similar level among all our group members.

P A G E 2 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 FINANCIAL INFORMATION Results for 2012-2013 The consolidated profit after income tax for the 2012-13 financial period was $3.27 million in comparison to $2.21 million for the prior year. The earnings before interest expense, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA ) was $5.35 million compared with $3.88 million for the same period last year. Revenue from ordinary activities decreased by 3.9% (2012: decrease 5.2%). This has occurred predominantly due to a restructure of our platform and reclassification of income items which were previously being used to meet expenses. It will enable us to more efficiently recover properly incurred expenses. Some restructuring of our Superannuation funds also occurred to conform with the compliance requirements of the new Future of Financial Advice Act (FOFA). These changes have made our funds more comparable with competitor products and opened up distribution opportunities. The year can best be described as one of consolidation following the hectic activity of last year which saw a number of financial planning acquisitions, further development of accounting services, the continuing enhancement of software systems and the transition to a new custodian for the safekeeping of client assets on our platforms. The acquisitions have assimilated well within our business, our systems are delivering greater efficiency whilst under our control and work with our new custodian has improved reporting and controls. A feature this year has been the significant legislative and regulatory changes imposed upon financial planning and superannuation businesses. While some of the detail is still outstanding and there exist variances in interpretation, we have devoted substantial executive time in planning, coordinating, training and delivering on these rather onerous requirements within prescribed timeframes. Needless to say, this exercise has been expensive and time consuming, but is now largely behind us. As indicated in our Joint Report for last year and despite operational challenges imposed by legislative changes, net operating expenses have been reduced by 14.6%. (2012 increased by 19.3%). Throughout the year we have received the support of our employees, who are our strength, and, as part of the ‘Fiducian Family,’ have helped us deal with the many challenges. Fiducian follows a policy of training, building and retaining quality staff in good and poor economic times, so they can participate in the future expansion of the business. Our diversity policy encourages persons of different sexes, ethnic backgrounds, ages and skills to participate and receive recognition, reward and management responsibility commensurate with their performance. No senior management positions changed during the year. Employees are from over 15 different countries of origin, 22% are over 55 years of age and 36% are female with 26% in senior roles. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT Final Dividend The Board remains cautious, but is confident that in spite of strong headwinds having been experienced over nearly six years or so, the future of the business in its present form is sound and likely to strengthen in an improving economic and financial market environment. As a result, a fully franked final dividend of 3.60 cents per share has been declared which will bring the total fully franked dividend declared for the 2013 financial year to 7.00 cents (2012: 5.00 cents). The final dividend will be paid on issued shares held on 6 September 2013 and be payable on 20 September 2013. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 P A G E 3 J O I N T R E P O R T O F T H E C H A I R M A N A N D T H E M A N A G I N G D I R E C T O R C O N T I N U E D Cash Flow Net operating cash flows of $4.81 million were achieved (2012: $1.55 million). After payment for prior and current year business acquisitions ($0.69 million), share buy backs ($ 0.25 million), dividend outlays ($1.87 million), fixed assets ($0.41 million) and receipts from loan repayment from staff / advisers ($0.09) and investments ($0.09 million) net cash increased by $1.77 million (2012: decrease $2.48 million). Cash at year end was $9.4 million (2012: $7.7 million). An amount of $5.0 million is required for regulatory purposes. Business acquisitions of prior years should assist our future revenue and earning capacity. A key feature and strength of the company is that it continues to remain debt free and exhibits a positive working capital and cash flow position. On Market Buy-Back During the year Fiducian bought 259,502 shares on market (2012: 359,440) for a total consideration, including brokerage, of $0.25 million (2012: $0.43 million) at an average price per share of $0.96 (2012: $1.20). There are 31.532 million shares on issue at year end (2012: 31.805 million). Acquisitions During the year we acquired an accounting practice in Queensland and a Financial Planning practice in New South Wales which have assimilated quickly. Both should deliver to our expectations in the 2013-14 year. Staff and Managing Director Options In accordance with the terms and conditions of the approved Employee and Director Share Option Plan, no options will be issued to employees but 100,000 options will be issued to the Managing Director in accordance with his contract of employment. These options will be issued at $1.05, a discount of 5% over the weighted volume average price in June and may be converted to shares by making a payment of their value to the company within 5 years. FINANCIAL PLANNING The Distribution Network The extensive training and financial planner specialisation in various segments that differentiate our financial planners from the marketplace has continued. In addition referral arrangements have been initiated with accountants, who themselves have shown an interest in financial planning. Salaried Offices Company owned offices with salaried financial planners based in New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia, Queensland and Tasmania have continued to contribute to overall results. Two financial planners retired from service this year, with an orderly transition of clients to younger experienced financial planners, that has enabled the retention of clients and no change in the Fiducian quality of care and service. Salaried offices now comprise over 43% of funds under administration. Franchised Offices Fiducian expects the highest level of compliance and client service from its franchised network. Even though the generation of higher inflows is important, our commitment is to quality. As a consequence client retention has been high and franchised offices now comprise around 44% of our funds under administration. Another six franchisees were added during the financial year and they have gone through the normal training and induction processes. P A G E 4 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 J O I N T R E P O R T O F T H E C H A I R M A N A N D T H E M A N A G I N G D I R E C T O R C O N T I N U E D PLATFORM ADMINISTRATION Platform Administration offers portfolio wrap administration for superannuation and investment services to the planner market place. The hallmark of the Fiducian administration offering is quality in terms of daily processing, accuracy and customer service. Funds Under Administration Funds under administration increased in total by 8% to $0.93 billion (2012 $0.87 billion). Though the bulk of our withdrawals are from IFAs, we believe that the rate of IFA withdrawals could slow as many of their clients have been with Fiducian for a long time. We also expect some acquired client bases to gradually transition to Fiducian platforms if it is appropriate for them. Clients could then enjoy the full benefit of our personalised service and quality investment strategies. Additionally, the restructure of our platforms has opened up opportunities for us to offer competitively priced products to the external market and discussions with various dealer groups have begun. Independent Financial Planners (IFAs) Funds under administration for IFAs are around 11% of total funds under administration. Some IFAs have sold their businesses to other Dealer Groups, which generally have their own recommended product lists and platform arrangements which can result in funds being withdrawn from Fiducian. Corporate Superannuation Corporate superannuation decreased by 25% (2012: decrease 1%) during the year. It forms only a small portion of funds under administration. The product has now been altered and does not offer default investment options which under new legislation can only be offered by funds authorised to offer a My Super product. Fiducian has focussed on the small employer market so that all employees using our superannuation fund could receive the appropriate services of a financial planner. It complements our core belief that proper financial planning advice is essential for all clients. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT Fiducian is a multi asset, multi style investment manager. We design Funds that seek to deliver above average returns over the short to medium term, which by consistent averaging, tend to deliver superior returns, compared with their peers, over the longer term. Blending of underlying portfolios within asset sectors and tilts towards different managers’ styles, depending on the economic cycle, also has the potential to reduce volatility. The investment team and investment committee remain confident that the Fiducian philosophy of liquidity and transparency will also benefit investors. In investment performance surveys, our diversified funds remain regularly in or close to the top quartile positions over longer time frames. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Fiducian Information Technology has successfully replaced our externally provided administration system with a superior internal system to provide much greater control, efficiency and substantial cost savings and open up new business opportunities in the future. These improvements are now in place and dovetail to provide greater integration with our on-line reporting and financial planning system FORCe. Administration efficiencies have already been observed and enhancements will be ongoing.

It now has two accounting practices which operate as Fiducian Accountants & Business Advisers (FABA) in NSW and Queensland. Cross referrals of our financial planning clients needing accounting help and our accounting clients needing financial planning help further supports Fiducian’s value proposition of service to all our clients. Our Self Managed Superannuation Fund administration facility has been showing steady growth in the number of funds administered. It is supported by our presence in India for cost rationalisation. FBS should become a strong growth pillar for our business in future years. It can provide a stable recurring income stream and cushion any financial market earnings downturn, as its earnings are not directly related to the financial markets. HUMAN RESOURCES Management and Staff The Fiducian management team is focused on managing and building a successful company. The effective reporting processes enhance Board oversight of business activity and performance monthly. Key performance indicators have been identified for management in each area of the business operations which are used to monitor performance at least on a quarterly basis. Planners Council, IT and Platform User Groups The Planners Council is drawn from our supporting financial planners and has again made a significant contribution to the company during the past year. It continues to fulfil its role as a sounding board for the company’s management and Board and is a valuable resource and forum to allow financial planners to alert the company to issues that may need consideration. The IT User Group was formed three years ago and it deserves commendation for its contribution to the development of and enhancements to our financial planning and reporting systems. The Platform User Group was formed last year and has continued to provide insight into system improvements and client servicing needs. It also made some valuable suggestions for the restructure and improvement of our platform offerings. Board of Directors The Board of directors is working constructively to evaluate and support management’s recommendations for the company. The Business Plan for the year ahead has adopted key measures for performance to lift profits. Future performance can also be influenced by a recovery in financial markets and decisive political leadership. An election is due and it is hoped that the result will give confidence to our Mum and Dad clients who are our traditional target market, to invest again in properly diversified investments instead of cash. Management remains committed to achieving the goals and objectives set down in these plans. CURRENT ECONOMIC AND MARKET ENVIRONMENT We have seen a strong share market recovery in Australia and overseas. However, it has still not translated into renewed confidence across the board. Political uncertainty at home, fears of a relapse into a global recession in Europe and continual volatility is sapping investor confidence. A weak and volatile share market for the last six years has caused investors to continue to remain cautious. Our house view is for share markets to again deliver positive returns this year when news of improvements in the European and US economic activity is forthcoming. We also believe that China and India will continue to show economic growth and support financial markets. Share markets are not currently expensive by historical measures P A G E 6 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 J O I N T R E P O R T O F T H E C H A I R M A N A N D T H E M A N A G I N G D I R E C T O R C O N T I N U E D and there is a large amount of cash waiting on the sidelines to enter, which could lend added support. As always, we recommend that investors should consult a Fiducian financial planner to develop an investment strategy that could help them achieve their financial goals. OUTLOOK The Board believes that financial markets should improve going forward and help improve the values of our clients’ portfolios. The Board also expects profits to continue in coming years as management focuses on expanding its range of business activities and on realizing the full potential of financial planning, platform administration, investment management, information technology and business/accounting services. Expenditure controls remain a priority. Fiducian has always insisted on fees being fully disclosed and charged for services provided. All our clients are expected to receive continuous advice and agree to their planner’s remuneration in writing and with full transparency. Our product disclosure documents specify that planner fees are negotiable between client and planner. We therefore do not expect any detrimental financial affect from the FOFA legislation. Fiducian has also kept abreast of changes to superannuation legislation and in its view, complied with the Prudential Standards introduced by APRA this year. The business plan for 2014 financial year looks at expanding the revenue base by growing the existing Fiducian business model and by further expanding its accountancy resourcing services to the self managed superannuation fund market and accounting community. The cash management strategy for the next financial year is to utilize profits to pay dividends and to use any surplus to support meaningful acquisitions or make further share buy backs. We would like to thank all participants for their individual contributions to the growth and success of Fiducian in what has been an eventful year with much accompanying change in legislation.

Shareholder returns The valuation of investment funds has improved substantially during the year and favourably impacted the management fees received by Fiducian, as more fully detailed in the Joint Report of the Chairman and Managing Director. This has enabled Fiducian to maintain profit for the second half of the year and propose a dividend distribution of 3.60 cents per share, bringing the full year dividend to 7.00 cents per share. Significant changes in the state of affairs During the financial year the Group acquired an accounting practice and a financial planning practice and their portfolio of clients were transferred to the respective operating entities progressively during the financial year. Contributed equity has reduced by $251,128 (inclusive of transaction costs) as a result of the buy back of 259,502 shares on the stock exchange at an average price of $0.96 per share during the year. Other than this, there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year. Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year Under the Rules of the Employee and Director Share Option Plan the Directors have offered 100,000 options to the Managing Director after year end (2012: Nil). To the date of this report 155,000 (2012: 110,000) employee options have lapsed. To the date of this report, 81,000 shares have been bought back on market at an average price of $1.03. Other than the above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial 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 subsequent years. Likely developments and expected results of operations The Chairman and Managing Director have commented on expected results of operations in their Joint Report. Other than this, the directors have excluded further information on likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in future financial years, since, in the opinion of the directors, it would prejudice the interests of the Group if this information was included. Environmental regulation The Group is not subject to significant environmental regulations under a Commonwealth, State or Territory law Employee Diversity Fiducian is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. It endorses diversity and currently has a number of employees that bring different skill-sets from their country of origin. We recognise that diversity includes , but is not limited to gender, age, ethnicity and cultural backgrounds. Our diversity policy encourages persons of different sexes, ethnic backgrounds, ages and skills to participate and receive recognition, reward and authority commensurate with their performance. Employees are comprised of staff from over 15 countries of origin, 22% over 55 years, and 36% female with 26% in senior roles.

A - Principles used to determine the nature and the amount of remuneration The objective of the Group’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and conforms with market practice for delivery of reward. The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices: • competitiveness and reasonableness • acceptability to shareholders • performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation • transparency • capital management.

Non-executive directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. Non-executive directors are no longer entitled to options under the Employee and Director Share Option Plan. Directors’ fees The current base remuneration was last reviewed in August 2013. The Chairman and other external directors are paid a fixed fee plus a fee based on time spent on committees (Directors with earnings derived from business placed with the Group may also receive remuneration as financial planners). The Chairman’s fixed fee is higher than other non-executive directors based on comparative roles, time and fees in the external market. Non-executive directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate directors’ fee pool limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The maximum pool currently stands at $350,000 per annum and was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on 24 October 2007. No increase is being sought at the next Annual General Meeting. Retirement allowances for directors There are no retirement allowances for non-executive directors other than superannuation accumulation arising from any contributions made for them. (b) Executive Director Remuneration and other terms of employment for the Managing Director is formalised in a service agreement. The Managing Director’s agreement provides for the provision of performance based cash bonuses and, where eligible, participation in the Employee and Director Share Option Plan. Other major provisions of the agreement are set out below: I Singh, Managing Director • Term of agreement - until 30 June 2014 • Base salary, inclusive of superannuation and salary sacrifice benefits. • Death and TPD/Trauma cover. • Short term performance incentives. • Long term incentives through the Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited Employee and Director Share Option Plan, and • Retirement benefits. The combination of these comprises the executive’s total remuneration package. An external remuneration consultant advises the Remuneration Committee, at least every 3 years, to ensure that the Group has structured an executive remuneration package that is market competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the organisation. Their most recent review was in August 2013. Base salary Mr Singh receives a base pay that comprises the fixed component of pay and the potential for rewards, which reflects the market value for his role. The base salary is reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee at the commencement of each financial year. There are no guaranteed base pay increases fixed in the executive’s contract.

Short-term incentives Mr Singh is entitled to a discretionary cash performance bonus of up to 20% of his total package as assessed by the Remuneration Committee against performance indicators and objectives set by the Board. It is limited to being met within the budget or out of over-budget financial performance. As in previous years Mr Singh has declined to accept the entitlement that was due for the financial year. Long-term incentives Mr Singh is entitled to a discretionary performance bonus of up to 100,000 options per year determined as at 30 June each year, based on the following measures: • the company’s pre-tax profit OR • the 30 day average for June market value for ordinary shares in the company increasing by at least 15% over the previous year. The options are issued under the company’s ESOP at the rate of 5,000 options for each one percent increase in annual profit in excess of 15% and only after approval by shareholders in the company. Retirement benefits Retirement benefits are delivered under the Fiducian Superannuation Service. This fund provides accumulation benefits based on the SGC contributions by the specified executive, on commercial terms and conditions. Other retirement benefits may be provided directly by the Group only if approved by the shareholders. Payment of a termination benefit on early termination by the Managing Director or by mutual consent is equal to 6 months of the gross annual remuneration.

The Board continues to review the framework and practices to ensure they meet the interests of shareholders. The company and its controlled entities together are referred to as the Group in this statement. A description of the company’s main corporate governance practices is set out below. All these practices, were in place for the entire year and comply with the August 2007 ASX Principles of Good Corporate Governance and Best Practice Recommendations, except where noted. Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight The relationship between the Board and senior management is critical to the Group’s long term success. The directors are responsible to the shareholders for the performance of the Group in both the short and the longer term and seek to balance sometimes competing objectives in the best interests of the Group as a whole. Their focus is to enhance the interests of shareholders and to ensure that the Group is properly managed. The responsibilities of the Board include: • • providing strategic guidance to the Group including contributing to the development of and approving the corporate strategy. reviewing and approving business plans, the annual budget and financial plans, including available resources and capital expenditure initiatives. • overseeing and monitoring: • organisational performance and the achievement of the Group’s strategic goals and objectives. • compliance with the company’s Code of Conduct (see pages 26 - 27). • progress of major capital expenditures and other significant corporate projects, including any acquisitions or divestments. • monitoring financial performance, including approval of the annual and half-year financial reports and liaison with the company’s auditors. • appointment, performance assessment and, if necessary, removal of the Managing Director • ratifying the appointment and /or removal and contributing to the performance assessment for the members of the senior management team. • ensuring there are effective management processes in place and approving major corporate initiatives. • enhancing and protecting the reputation of the organisation. • ensuring that adequate disaster recovery and business continuity plans are regularly monitored, tested and results reported. • overseeing the operation of the Group’s system for compliance and risk management reporting to shareholders. Day to day management of the Group’s affairs and the implementation of the corporate strategies and policy initiatives are formally delegated by the Board to the Managing Director. Principle 2: Structure the Board to add value The Board operates in accordance with the broad principles set out in its charter which is also available on the company’s website at www.fiducian.com.au. The charter details the Board’s composition and responsibilities. Board members The following persons were directors of Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited during the financial year: Chairman (non-executive) Executive Managing Director Non-executive directors R Bucknell I Singh F Khouri C Stone Details of each director’s experience, expertise and qualifications are set out each year in the Directors’ Report of the Annual Report to Shareholders under the heading ‘Information on Directors’. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 P A G E 2 3 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 C O N T I N U E D Principle 2: Structure the Board to add value (continued) Board composition The charter states: • the Board is comprised of both an executive Director and a majority of non-executive directors, with a minimum of four directors. • non-executive directors bring a fresh perspective to the Board’s consideration of strategic, risk and performance matters. • in recognition of the importance of independent views and the Board’s role in supervising the activities of management, the majority of the Board must be independent of management and all directors are required to exercise independent judgement and review and constructively challenge the performance of management. • the Chairman is elected by the full Board and is required to meet regularly with the Managing Director. • the company is to maintain a mix of directors on the Board from different backgrounds with complimentary skills and experience. • the Board is required to undertake an annual Board performance review and consider the appropriate mix of skills required by the Board to maximise its effectiveness and its contribution to the Group. The Board seeks to ensure that: • at any point in time, its membership represents an appropriate balance between directors irrespective of gender with experience and knowledge of the Group and directors with an external or fresh perspective. • the size of the Board is conducive to effective discussion and efficient decision-making. Chairman and Managing Director The Board charter specifies that these are separate roles to be undertaken by separate people. • The Chairman is responsible for leading the Board, ensuring that Board activities are organised and efficiently conducted, and directors are properly briefed for meetings. • The Managing Director is responsible for implementing Group strategies and policies. Directors’ independence Directors are obliged to be independent in judgement and ensure that all reasonable steps and due care are taken by the Board to arrive at sound decisions. The Board has adopted specific guidelines in relation to directors’ independence. These state that when determining independence, a director must be a non-executive and: • not be a substantial shareholder of the company or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the company. • not have been employed in an executive capacity by the Group within three years before commencing to serve on the Board. • not have been, within the last three years, a principal of a material professional adviser or a material consultant to the Group, or an employee materially associated with the service provided. • not have been a material supplier or customer of the Group, or an officer of or otherwise associated directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer. • not have a material contractual relationship with the Group, other than as a director of Fiducian. • not have been on the Board for a period which could, or could reasonably be perceived, to materially interfere with the director’s independent exercise of their judgement. Materiality for these purposes is determined on both quantitative and qualitative bases. With good cause, the Board may, at its discretion, determine that a director is independent, or has lost their independence, notwithstanding that all the above criteria are or are not satisfied. The Board assesses independence each year. To enable this process, the directors must provide all information that may be relevant to the assessment. Matters that could affect the independence of directors are detailed on the following page: P A G E 2 4 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 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 C O N T I N U E D Principle 2: Structure the Board to add value (continued) • Mr Bucknell and Mr Singh have both served on the Board since inception of the Group, being for more than fifteen years. Both bring a depth of experience and independent judgement to their roles as directors and remain vital to the growth of the Group. Mr. Bucknell is deemed by the Board to be an independent director. • Mr Khouri has business dealings with the Group as disclosed in the Annual Report at the end of each financial year. However, these are not of such a value or significance that adversely affect the director’s independence. He has declared his interests in those dealings with the company and takes no part in decisions relating to them. • Mr Stone has no business dealings with the Group either independently or through his employer. Independent professional advice Directors and members of Board committees have the right to obtain independent professional advice at the expense of the Group on matters arising in the course of their duties and responsibilities, with prior approval of the Board. Term of office The company’s Constitution specifies that all non-executive directors must retire from office no later than the third annual general meeting following their last election. A retiring director is eligible to stand for re-election. Induction The induction provided to new directors enables them to actively participate in Board decision-making as soon as possible. It ensures that they have a full understanding of the company’s financial position, strategies, operations and risk management policies. It also explains the respective rights, duties, responsibilities and roles of the Board. Performance assessment The Board undertakes an annual self assessment of its collective performance, the performance of the Chairman and of its committees. The assessment also considers the adequacy of induction and continuing education, access to information and the support provided by the Managing Director. The results and any action plans are documented together with specific performance goals which are agreed for the coming year. An assessment carried out in accordance with this process was undertaken during June, 2013. Board committees The Board has established a number of committees to assist in the execution of its duties and to allow detailed consideration of important aspects of the business and/or complex issues. Current committees of the Board are the Remuneration, Internal Compliance, External Compliance and Risk, Investment and Audit Committees. With the exception of the Audit committee which is comprised of all non-executives directors, the committees are comprised of a mix of executive and non-executived directors, and external specialists, the names and qualifications of whom are detailed in each Annual Report to Shareholders. Each committee has its own written charter setting out its role and responsibilities, composition, structure, membership requirements and the manner in which the committee is to operate. All of these charters are reviewed as required, but at least every three years. A summary of each charter is available on the company’s website. Minutes of all committee meetings are tabled at the next Board meeting where any significant matters are addressed and resolutions or requests for further information are sent back to the relevant committee. Specific reporting by the committees to the Board are addressed in the charter of the individual committees. Nomination Committee The Board has considered recommendation 2.4 of the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and has taken the view that participation by the full Board is more effective than a smaller Nomination Committee, particularly given the size of the Board. There is therefore no Nomination Committee at present. Remuneration Committee The Remuneration Committee is comprised of the non-executive Chairman and two other non-executive directors. The Committee ensures a formal performance evaluation is in place for the Managing Director and senior management personnel using established company objectives, key performance indicators and other criteria such as business performance and prevailing market conditions. External advice on remuneration levels is obtained when deemed appropriate, but at a minimum of three year intervals.

The compliance officer attends and participates at the meetings. (c) The External Compliance and Risk Committee (Superannuation) is comprised of two independent members, and one other non-executive Director. The Commitee monitors compliance of systems, procedures, policies and programs established to ensure disclosure and reporting relating to compliance with obligations imposed by the corporations and superannuation laws, and that the interests of fund members are protected.

This policy is discussed with and given to each new director or employee as part of the induction process. Each director and employee is required to sign an annual declaration confirming their compliance. Generally, directors and employees are only allowed to buy or sell Fiducian securities during the six weeks immediately after the release to the market of financial information or any other major statement that may affect the share price. The compliance officer advises both directors and staff when such periods commence and conclude. The Code requires employees who are aware of unethical practices within the group or breaches of the company’s trading policy to report these using the company’s whistleblower program. This can be done anonymously. The directors are satisfied that the Group has complied with its policies on trading in securities.

PricewaterhouseCoopers has been the appointed external auditor since inception in 1996. It is PricewaterhouseCoopers policy to rotate audit engagement partners on listed companies at least every five years, and in accordance with that policy a new audit engagement partner was introduced in the financial year ended 30 June 2009 and is expected to be replaced in 2014. An analysis of fees paid to the external auditors, including a break-down of fees for non-audit services, is provided in the Directors’ Report and in each Annual Report to Shareholders. It is the policy of the external auditors to provide an annual declaration of their independence to the audit committee. The external auditor normally attends the annual general meeting to be available to answer shareholder questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the financial report and audit thereof. Principles 5 and 6: Make timely and balanced disclosures and respect the rights of Shareholders Continuous disclosure and shareholder communication The company has written policies and procedures on information disclosure that focus on continuous disclosure of any information concerning the Group that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price of the company’s shares.

In summary, the company policies are designed to ensure that strategic, operational, legal, reputational and financial risks are identified, assessed effectively and efficiently managed and monitored to achieve the Group’s objectives. A detailed Risk Management Strategy and Plan are in place which details the policies in place in relation to risk management processes, compliance and internal control systems, procedures, registers and reporting. The head of each business unit reports monthly, by exception, against the Risk Management Plan to the General Counsel. Further, detailed checklist reports are prepared quarterly by each business unit to confirm compliance with all licensing, corporations and superannuation law requirements to the External Compliance and Risk Committees, which then report to the Board. In addition, the Board each year approves a strategic plan together with operating objectives and budgets which also encompasses the Group’s vision and mission. The Board monitors progress against these objectives and budgets, including the establishment and monitoring of KPIs of both a financial and non-financial nature. Also, regular financial reporting is received by the Board on such matters as the Group’s liquidity, funds under management inflows and outflows, funds performances and economic and financial market changes, impacts and forecasts. These measures assist the Board in managing business risk and any necessary mitigation strategies. The environment, health and safety management systems The Company recognises the importance of environmental and occupational health and safety (OH&S) issues and is committed to high levels of performance, whilst recognising that the Group’s operations expose it to little safety risk or environmental hazards. Corporate reporting The Managing Director and Financial Controller have made the following signed certifications to the Board • that the company’s financial reports are complete and present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the financial condition and operational results of the company and Group and are in accordance with relevant accounting standards; and • that the above statement is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the policies adopted by the Board, and that the company’s risk management and internal compliance and control is operating efficiently and effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks.

The Committee ensures a formal performance evaluation is in place for the Managing Director and senior management personnel using established company objectives, key performance indicators and other criteria such as business performance and prevailing market conditions. External advice on remuneration levels is obtained when deemed appropriate, but at a minimum of three year intervals. The Remuneration Committee advises the Board on remuneration and incentive policies and practices generally, and makes specific recommendations on remuneration packages and other terms of employment for the Managing Director. The Board assumes responsibility for overseeing management succession planning, including the implementation of appropriate executive development programmes and ensuring adequate arrangements are in place, so that an appropriate candidate can be recruited for later promotion to the Managing Director’s position. The Managing Director is responsible for the remuneration of all other senior managers and staff.

These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial report includes separate financial statements for Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited as an individual entity and the Group consisting of Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited and its subsidiaries. (a) Basis of preparation This general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Fiducian Portfolio Services Ltd. is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. Compliance with IFRS The financial report of Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Historical cost convention The financial report has been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Critical accounting estimates The preparation of financial reports requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 2. (b) Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial report incorporates the assets and liabilities of all entities controlled by Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited (company or parent entity) as at 30 June 2013 and the results of all controlled entities for the year then ended. Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group. Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the parent company’s financial report. Intercompany transactions and balances on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of comprehensive income. (c) Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows: (i) Management fees and Fees, payments to advisers and related costs Revenues comprising trustee and management fees are recognised on an accruals basis. Fees, payments to advisers and costs related to this revenue is recognised at the same time and on the same basis. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 P A G E 3 9 N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S C O N T I N U E D F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 3 1 SUMMARY O F SI GNI FI CANT A CC OUNT I N G PO LI C IES c o n t i n u e d (c) Revenue recognition (continued) (ii) Interest income Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest method. When a receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loans is recognised using the original effective interest rate. (iii) Dividends Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established. (iv) Distributions from related trusts Distributions from related trusts are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established. (v) Foreign currency translation (i) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements of each of the group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited’s functional and presentation currency. (ii) Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss. (iii) Group companies The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: • assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet • income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at the closing rate at the end of the month, and • all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other expenses. (d) Income tax The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the national income tax rate for Australia adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and unused tax losses. Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial reports. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates ( and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. P A G E 4 0 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S C O N T I N U E D F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 3 (d) Income tax (continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. Fiducian Portfolio Services Limited and its Australian wholly-owned operating entities have not formed a tax consolidated group. (e) Operating leases Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases (Note 28). Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. (f) Trustee company and Responsible Entity The company acts as a Trustee of Fiducian Superannuation Service and Responsible Entity of Fiducian Funds (‘the trusts’). The accounting policies adopted by the company in the preparation of the financial reports for the year ended 30 June 2013 reflect the fiduciary nature of the company’s responsibility for the assets and liabilities of the trusts. The financial reports do not include the trusts’ assets and liabilities as future economic benefits and obligations derived from the trusts’ assets and liabilities do not accrue to the company. In accordance with AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, the trust assets and liabilities have not been disclosed as the directors consider the probability of the company having to meet the liabilities of the trusts is remote. (g) Impairment of assets Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows which are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. (h) Cash and cash equivalents For cash flow statement presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. (i) Trade receivables Trade receivables are recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables are due for settlement no more than 120 days from the date of recognition for trade receivables and financial planning fees, and no more than 30 days for other receivables. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Receivables, which are known to be uncollectible, are written off. An allowance account (provision for impairment of trade receivables) is used when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments (outside settlement terms) are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 P A G E 4 1 N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S C O N T I N U E D F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 3 1 SUMMA RY O F SI GNI FI C AN T A CCOU NT IN G POL IC IES c o n t i n u e d (i) Trade receivables (continued) The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. (j) Business combinations The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The purchase consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the acquiree. The purchase consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement and the fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase consideration transferred, and the acquisition-date fair value over the fair value of the group’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired, is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase. Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. (k) Investments and other financial assets The Group classifies its investments in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, and other financial assets. The classification depends on the purposes for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and, in the case of assets classified as held-to-maturity, re-evaluates this designation at each reporting date. (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading which are acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term with the intention of making a profit. (ii) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Group provides money directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the statement of financial position date which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in receivables in the statement of financial position in Notes 10 and 11. (I) Fair value estimation The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments. P A G E 4 2 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S C O N T I N U E D F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 3 1 SUMM ARY OF SI GN IFI CA NT A CC OUN TI N G PO LI C IES c o n t i n u e d (m) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they were incurred. Depreciation on assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows: Furniture, office equipment and computers 2 – 8 years Leasehold improvements term of the lease The asset’s residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount in Note 1(g). Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, it is Group policy to transfer the amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to retained earnings. (n) Intangible assets Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains or losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. These units are all within the financial planning segment. Client portfolios Consideration payable for the acquisition of client portfolios is deferred and amortised on a straight line basis over a period of 10 years. Client portfolios are also tested for events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be impaired, and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. IT development and software Costs incurred in developing products or systems and costs incurred in acquiring software and licences that will contribute to future period financial benefits through revenue generation and/or cost reduction are capitalised to software and systems where deemed appropriate. Costs capitalised include direct costs of materials and service and direct payroll and payroll related costs of employees’ time spent on the project. Amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis over periods generally ranging from 3 to 5 years. Capitalised expenditure are tested for events or changes in circumstances that indicate that they may be impaired and whether they exceed their recoverable amount. (o) Trade and other payables These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 P A G E 4 3 N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S C O N T I N U E D F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 3 1 SUMMA RY O F SI GNI FI C AN T A CCOU NT IN G POL IC IES c o n t i n u e d (p) Provisions Provisions for legal claims are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at reporting date. The discount rate used to determine the present value reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. No such provision is required at year end. (q) Employee benefits (i) Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave Liabilities for wages and salaries, and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employee services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amount expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Personal/carers leave is brought to account as incurred. (ii) Long service leave The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit cost method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms of maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. (iii) Share-based payments Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees and financial planners via the two share option plans. Information relating to these schemes is set out in Note 25. No expense is recognised in respect of options granted before 7 November 2002 and vested before 1 January 2005 issued to employees for nil consideration. Shares issued following the exercise of such options are recognised at that time and the proceeds received allocated to share capital. Subsequent options issued to employees for nil considerations have the fair value of options granted under the Fiducian Employee & Director Share Option Plan recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Binomial option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date, the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. (r) Contributed equity Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. If the entity reacquires its own equity instruments, for example as the result of a share buy-back, those instruments are deducted from equity and the associated shares are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss and the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is recognised directly in equity.

(t) Earnings per share (i) Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the net profit after income tax attributable to equity holders of the company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year. (ii) Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share 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. (u) Goods and services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to the ATO is included with other payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the ATO, are presented as operating cash flow. (v) Rounding of amounts The company is of a kind referred to in Class Order 98/100 issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the financial report. Amounts in the financial report have been rounded off in accordance with that Class Order to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, to the nearest dollar. (w) Comparatives Previous year comparatives have been restated where necessary to make them comparable with the current year. (x) New accounting standards and interpretations Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2013 reporting periods. The Group’s and the parent entity’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below. AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2009-11 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (effective from 1 January 2015) AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification and measurement of financial assets and is likely to affect the Group’s accounting for its financial assets. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2015 but is available for early adoption. Management does not expect this to have a significant impact on the Group financial statements and is in the midst of performing a detailed analysis on the impacts of the new standard. AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (effective for reporting periods commencing 1 January 2013) AASB 10 replaces the guidance on control and consolidation in ASSSB 127 Consolidated and Seperate Financial Statements. The standard introduces a single definition of control applicable to all entities. Control exists when the investor can use their power to affect the amount of its returns. Management does not expect this standard to have a significant impact on the Group financial statements and is in the midst of an exercise to document its impacts on the Group. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 P A G E 4 5 N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S C O N T I N U E D F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 3 (x) New accounting standards and interpretations (continued) AASB 11 Joint Arrangements (effective for reporting periods commencing 1 January 2013) AASB 11 introduces a principles based approach to accounting for joint arrangements. It switches the focus from the legal strucutre of joint arrangements to the sharing of rights and obligations of the parties under the joint arrangement. The Group does not participate in any joint arrangements and therefore this standard is not expected to have any impact on its financial statements. AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (effective for reporting periods commencing 1 January 2013) AASB 12 sets out the required disclosures for the entities reporting under the new standards AASB 10 and AASB 11 and replaces the disclosure requirements currently found in AASB 127 and AASB 128. Application of this standard does not affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements but will impact the information disclosure. Management is in the midst of assessing the impact of this standard but it is expected to be limited. AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement and AASB 2011-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 13 (effective for reporting periods commencing 1 January 2013) AASB 13 was released in September 2011. It explains how to measure fair value and aims to enhance fair value disclosures. The group has yet to determine which, if any, of its current measurement techniques will have to change as a result of the new guidance. It is therefore not possible to state the impact, if any, of the new rules on any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements. However, application of the new standard will impact the type of information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Management does not intend to adopt the new standard before its operative date, which means that it would be first applied in the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2014. 2 CRITI CAL ACCOU NT ING E ST IMA TES A N D A SS UM PT I ONS The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. (i) Estimated impairment of goodwill The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, by comparing its current amount with its recoverable amount in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 1(n). The recoverable amounts of the cash- generating units have been determined based on earnings multiples requiring the use of sustainable revenue estimates and comparable market transactions. (ii) Estimated impairment of client portfolios The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that the investment or accounting portfolios may be impaired in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 1(n). If any such indication exists, the Group shall estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on discounted cash flow models which require the use of assumptions on discount rates, recurring revenues and cash flow projections. The key estimates and assumptions do not have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment within the next financial year to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities recognised in the financial report. (iii) Valuation of illiquid unlisted unit trusts Investments in unlisted unit trusts are generally priced at the prevailing unit price issued by the manager. Where a unit trust is frozen and redemptions are restricted the unit price issued by the manager may not reflect fair value of the underlying investment. In such cases management may determine that an additional provision is required to reflect a liquidity or valuation discount. Such provisions are subjective as a result of limited information and therefore require a high degree of estimation.

Funds Management and Administration The company operates in a single segment as Trustee for a public offer superannuation fund - Fiducian Superannuation Service, Operator of an Investor Directed Portfolio Service – Fiducian Investment Service and Responsible Entity for managed investment schemes - Fiducian Funds. Financial Planning The company continued its specialist financial planning operations through its subsidiaries, Fiducian Financial Services Pty Ltd. Business Services The company provides accountancy resource services through its subsidiary, Fiducian Business Services Pty Ltd. Although this segment does not meet the quantitative thresholds required by AASB 8, management has concluded that this segment should be reported as it is closely monitored by management for its potential growth opportunities. Geographical segments The Group operates in the following geographical segments - in Australia and in India. The Indian operations are not considered material for a sperate geographical segment disclosure during the financial year 2013.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on market value calculations. These calculations use recurring income measures consistent with market valuations of similar financial services businesses. (c) Impact of possible changes in key assumptions Changes in assumptions made in the assessment of impairment of goodwill relate to updating the earnings multiple used to estimate sustainable revenues. These assumptions are compared to market each year and adjusted appropriately. Refer to Note 2 for details.

However if the acquisitions had taken place on 1 July 2012, management estimate a maximum revenue impact of $555,824 for the year ended 30 June 2013. It is not practicable to estimate the profit contribution given the significant change in cost basis to the operation of the business once within the Fiducian Group.

(e) Options Information relating to Fiducian Portfolio Services Employee & Director and Adviser Option Plans and options issued, exercised and lapsed during the year is set out in Note 25. (f) Capital risk management The Group’s and the parent entity’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, to continue to meet externally imposed capital requirements of APRA and ASIC under their Responsible Superannuation Entity (RSE) Licence and their Australian Financial Services (AFS) Licence respectively, and to continue to provide returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders via an on-market share buy back, or issue new shares upon exercise of outstanding options. There has been no borrowing to maintain capital adequacy. The externally imposed requirements are: a. Under its AFS Licence, the parent entity must maintain net tangible assets (NTA) - as defined in the licence - of $5,000,000; and b. Under its RSE Licence, the RSE must maintain $100,000 cash at all times. The requirement under the RSE licence is maintained by placing cash on deposit with an ADI.

The ESOP is designed to provide long-term incentives for senior managers and directors to deliver long-term shareholder returns. Under the plan, participants are granted options which only vest if certain performance standards are met. Participation in the plan is at the Board’s discretion and no individual has a contractual right to participate in the plan or receive any guaranteed benefits. The parent entity has established the ESOP, which is designed to provide incentives to employees and directors. All grants of options under the ESOP are subject to compliance with the Corporations Act 2001 and ASX Listing Rules. The directors may, from time to time, determine which employees and directors may participate in the ESOP, and the number of options that may be issued to them. The directors have an absolute discretion to determine who will participate and the number of options that may be issued. The ESOP provides for an upper limit on the number of options that may be outstanding, the exercise price, exercise period and expiry, and adjustments in the event of capital restructuring. The directors have resolved that the ESOP no longer applies to non-executive directors. Options are granted under the plan for no consideration. Employee options are granted for a five year period where 35% vest after one year, a further 45% vest after two years and the balance vest after three years. Director options vest after one year. Options granted under the plan carry no dividend or voting rights. When exercisable, each option is converted into one ordinary share on payment of the exercise price. The exercise price of options is based on the volume weighted average price at which the company’s shares are traded on the Australian Securities Exchange during the month preceding the date the options are granted. The directors determined to issue no options (2012: Nil) to staff during the year, and 110,000 options expired (2012: 115,375) during the year ended 30 June 2013. Subject to prior approval by shareholders, the company may issue each year a maximum of 100,000 options to the executive director for each year of service, subject to performance criteria. The Directors have resolved to issue 100,000 options at an exercise price of $1.05 (2012: Nil) to the executive director in respect of the year ended 30 June 2013. (b) Adviser share option plan (ASOP) The parent entity established the ASOP to provide incentives to financial planning groups to reflect their ongoing commitment by way of contributions of income to the parent entity. All grants of options under the ASOP are subject to compliance with the Corporations Act 2001 and ASX Listing Rules. Options granted under the plan carry no dividend or voting rights. When exercisable, each option is converted into one ordinary share on payment of the exercise price. The ASOP has not been extended beyond June 2011. Options were granted for no consideration. The total Adviser options and preference shares issued since inception total 6,847,517. Only 20,270 Adviser options are still on issue.

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Binomial option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. Options are granted for no consideration, have a five year life, and each tranche vests and is exercisable progressively after 1 year. As no options were granted during the year ended 30 June 2013 and 2012, no model inputs have been disclosed.

(2012: $436,000). Client retention service fee Under the terms of salary agreements made by Harold Bodinnar & Associates Pty Ltd with certain long serving salaried financial planners, those advisers are entitled to a service fee subsequent to their retirement from the company, under conditions designed to protect the company’s client base. Eligibility to this service fee is based on service period and certain income criteria that may increase or decrease prior to retirement date and in the subsequent two years. Payment of this fee is subject to further ongoing conditions, including client retention, the provision of support services to the entity to achieve this aim, and is payable in arrears out of income earned from the retained client base over a period of two years. The benefit is personal to the planner, is not transferable, can be stopped by or repaid to Fiducian Financial Services Pty Ltd should there be a breach of conditions, and will be reduced if the adviser purchases some or all of their client base at or after retirement. No material losses are anticipated in respect of the above contingent liabilities, as the expected reduction in servicing cost post retirement is estimated to offset the benefit payment. 28 COMMI TME NT S FO R E XP E N DI TURE (a) Capital expenditure Commitments payable within one year - - - - CONSOLIDATED PARENT ENTITY 2013 $’000 2012 $’000 2013 $’000 2012 $’000 (b) Operating leases The Group leases various offices under non-cancellable operating leases expiring within 12 months to four years.

(ii) Price risk The Group and parent entity are exposed to equity securities and other investment price risk. This arises from (a) unlisted investments held by the Group and classified on the statement of financial position at fair value through profit or loss, and (b) from the derivation of fees for the management of investment and superannuation funds. Price risk on unlisted investments is discussed in Note 13 and sensitivity analysis is conducted on the upper range of outcomes of -10%. It is unlikely this investment will increase in value. To minimise its price risk the Group and parent entity offer a range of investment funds in a variety of domestic and international equities, property and fixed interest securities, and across a number of investment managers. Exposure to these funds is driven by clients and their financial planners. Not all of the funds are publicly traded or invest in publicly traded securities. Sensitivity analysis is therefore based on the assumption that all funds under advice, administration and management had increased or decreased by 10% (2012: - 10%) against actual market movements, with all other variables held constant other than financial planning fees that are paid out of such income.

The group has no borrowings. 30 JUNE 2013 30 JUNE 2012 Weighted average interest rate % Cash at bank and on deposit Staff & financial planner loans 2.8% 5.1% Balance $’000 9,440 2,365 11,805 Weighted average interest rate % 3.2% 5.8% Balance $’000 7,674 2,451 10,125 Bank deposits are at call and staff and planner loans have terms extending between 1 and 7 years, and may be repayable sooner in certain circumstances. Interest rates are reviewed and adjusted at least quarterly. The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from cash and cash equivalents with variable interest rates. At 30 June 2013 if interest rates change by +/- 100 basis points (2012: +/- 100 basis points) from the year end rates with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit would have been $83,000 higher or lower (2012: $71,000). (b) Credit risk The Group and parent entity have negligible credit risk from receivables, as management fee and financial planning income is received within one month of it falling due, and financial planning fees are only paid following the receipt of this income. The credit quality of other financial assets can be assessed against external credit ratings as follows: Cash and cash equivalents AA- Investment in related trust Unrated Loans to staff and financial planners Unrated CONSOLIDATED PARENT ENTITY 2013 $’000 2012 $’000 2013 $’000 2012 $’000 9,440 9,440 7,674 7,674 7,536 7,536 6,311 6,311 155 275 155 275 2,365 2,130 2,365 2,130 The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying amount of the financial assets as summarised on this page.

As of 1 July 2009, Fiducian Portfolio Services Ltd has adopted the amendment to AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures which requires disclosure of fair value measurements by levels of the following fair value measurement hierarchy: (a) quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level1) (b) inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (level 2), and (c) inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (level 3) The following table presents the group’s and the parent entity’s assets and liabilities measured and recognised at fair value according to the fair value hierarchy at 30 June 2013. Parent and Group - at 30 June 2013 Assets Other financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Investment in related trust Total assets Parent and Group - at 30 June 2012 Assets Other financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Investment in related trust Total assets Level 1 $’000 Level 2 $’000 Level 3 $’000 Total $’000 - - - - 155 155 155 155 Level 1 $’000 Level 2 $’000 Level 3 $’000 Total $’000 - - - - 275 275 275 275 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 3 F I D U C I A N P O R T F O L I O S E R V I C E S L I M I T E D A C N 0 7 3 8 4 5 9 3 1 P A G E 7 7 N O T E S T O T H E F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S C O N T I N U E D F O R T H E Y E A R E N D E D 3 0 J U N E 2 0 1 3 34 FINAN CIAL RI SK MANAGE M EN T C O N TIN UED The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1. The Group holds none of these investments. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, debt investments and derivative financial instruments) is determined using valuation techniques. These instruments are included in level 2. The Group held none of these investments during the year. In the circumstances where a valuation technique for these instruments is based on significant unobservable inputs, such instruments are included in level 3. The Group’s accounting policy is to value the investment in related trust at fair value through profit or loss, made difficult as a result of a redemption freeze. The Group has performed a review at 30 June 2013 which focussed on directional movements in the credit quality of the investments held by the underlying fund managers since the prior year, as well as monitoring the underlying funds for indicators of impairment. From this review the Group believes the value recorded represents fair value, with reasonably possible changes in fair value shown in Note 34(a)(ii). The following table presents the changes in level 3 instruments for the year ended 30 June 2013: Parent and Group Investment in related trust – Opening balance Transfers in to level 3 Capital distribution (Loss)/Gain recognised in profit or loss 2013 $’000 2012 $’000 275 - (96) (24) 155 425 - (180) 30 275 The carrying amounts of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the group for similar financial instruments. 35 NO N-CO NT RO LLI NG I NTE R E STS During the financial year the group established an overseas company in India with a local partner with 90% stake for providing accounting and business resourcing services. The operations for the company are still in its initial stages and not material in 2013. The profit contribution of the non-controlling interests are shown separately in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
