Dear fellow shareholders (ii) To look for acquisitive growth opportunities The 2017 financial year has been a busy year for Donaco as we laid the foundations for the transition to full management control of Star Vegas, while launching a number of international marketing initiatives at the venue and driving strong growth at Aristo. Although the Thai economy was depressed for most of the year following the passing of the late King of Thailand, our underlying Group profit was in line with the 2016 financial year (FY16). We believe we are well positioned to resume our growth trend following the cessation of the official mourning period from October 2017, with a fresh management team in place to deliver growth from new marketing initiatives, international junkets and online gaming. Following the expiration of the management contract with the Star Vegas vendor on 30 June 2017, management was taken in-house, and this allowed us to take full advantage of the Group’s expertise and experience in managing Asian gaming businesses. Accordingly, the management team was refreshed and a number of key appointments made – including Kenny Bee Meng Chuan as General Manager – to position Donaco for a strong year in 2018. Despite the challenging conditions in our major market, the strong earnings and cash flow generated from Star Vegas and Aristo further strengthened our financial position. The Board sees capital allocation as one of the most important areas of value creation for shareholders, and on behalf of the Board we were delighted to begin to implement a range of capital management initiatives. In addition to our debt obligations, we see the capital we have available as being directed in four possible ways: (i) To provide capital to support organic growth initiatives in our existing venues in the region (iii) To apply surplus capital towards dividends, and (iv) To apply surplus capital towards the buyback of shares. We recognise that as we reduce our debt, and gain greater flexibility with our balance sheet, all these areas of capital deployment become available. With the new debt facility that has come into effect for the 2018 financial year (FY18) we are pleased to announce our intention to move to regular six-monthly dividend payments, commencing with a dividend of half a cent per share payable in October 2017. As a further measure to create value for shareholders, the Board also announced an intention to implement an on-market share buyback program commencing in October 2017. Although the transition to in-house management at Star Vegas was a key focus towards the end of the 2017 financial year (FY17), our senior management team continued to implement initiatives to improve the performance of our Aristo business in Vietnam. Pleasingly, the trajectory of strong growth has continued, aided by initiatives to focus on mass market players (away from the more volatile VIP segment) and the strong economy in Vietnam underpinned by tourism from China. As Chairman of the Group it was pleasing to see the share price recover to be up 40% over the financial year, despite the challenging economic conditions in Thailand, and we believe that by delivering strong financial management and earnings growth, shareholders will continue to be rewarded in future years. One of Donaco’s strengths is our adherence to strong corporate governance practices. In the Asian region we are widely recognised by governments, our visitors and our customers, as a Group that operates with high standards of probity and good governance. We believe that this becomes a competitive advantage in pursuing further growth opportunities as they arise into the future. Our Board is culturally and geographically diverse, which is an element of our success, given we operate in multiple geographies and our target customers come from a diverse range of backgrounds. We believe it is important to make a positive contribution to the communities we operate in, and accordingly we engaged in a range of charitable activities to support the wellbeing of the underprivileged in our regions. During the year we presented gifts to students at Nam Lu School in Lao Cai province in Vietnam, and donated 50 computers to students at Nguyen Ba Ngoc Primary School, to assist them with their studies. We also presented gifts to students with blood cancer, school uniforms to other students, and warm blankets to underprivileged men and women during winter. Other initiatives included donating bicycles to students in the Lao Cai province, and donating to the Children’s Care Fund of Lao Cai. With the management of the Star Vegas being brought in-house, Non-Executive Director Paul Porntat Amatavivadhana resigned after the conclusion of the financial year. Mr Amatavivadhana made a valuable contribution to Donaco’s Board over the two-year period since Star Vegas became part of the Group, and I would like to thank him for his contribution on behalf of the Board. In summary, FY17 was one in which Donaco delivered strong results despite a challenging economic period. While the result at Star Vegas was down slightly on FY16, earnings at Aristo continued to grow strongly, and our underlying Group profit was in line with last year. In addition, our debt was further reduced, and we employed capital management initiatives including a dividend and a buyback program to reward shareholders. We are excited about the flexibility that in-house management of Star Vegas brings, and the opportunities to improve our financial performance over FY18, at a time when the mourning period in Thailand is about to conclude. Overall, we are confident that our focus on driving strong underlying performance at both of our blue-chip gaming assets will result in positive results for our shareholders over the long term. stuart McGregor Chairman 2 3 HeadingDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual Report From the Chairman Overall we are confident that our focus on driving strong underlying performance at both of our blue-chip gaming assets will result in positive results for our shareholders over the long term.

Dear Fellow Shareholders The 2017 financial year produced solid performance, despite a challenging economic period in Thailand following the passing of the late King. The Group generated $136.4 million in revenue, of which Star Vegas contributed $110.2 million, with an underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of $84.4 million, only slightly down on the previous year. Aristo in Vietnam continued its strong growth, as we repositioned the business towards the mass market. Overall, our net profit after tax (NPAT) was $31.0 million, including negative non-recurring items of $23.6 million. This amount included the final Star Vegas vendor management fee of $19.0 million, which became payable as the business exceeded its earnings targets. The balance of non-recurring items related to non-cash movements with respect to warrants. In FY16 the non-recurring items totalled a positive $24.1 million, predominantly due to the benefit of the revaluation of Star Vegas following its acquisition, offset by the initial vendor management fee and acquisition expenses. After adjusting for the non-recurring items, our underlying net profit after tax of $54.6 million was in line with last year. The cash flow from operations of $47.4 million remained strong, although slightly below the $50.0 million generated last year. Despite the subdued consumer sentiment and economic climate in Thailand, the Star Vegas property experienced only a moderate reduction in revenue, and a favourable increase in the VIP gross win rate to 3.54%, which was up from 3.16% achieved over FY16. We should note that given the inherent volatility of the VIP gaming business, we do not always expect to have the win-rate run so strongly in our favour. We were also pleased to see management initiatives to improve utilisation of the venue take effect, with non-gaming revenue experiencing robust growth over the year. Overall, net profit after tax at Star Vegas declined by 7.3% to THB1,466 million. The previous contract with the former Thai vendor for the management of the Star Vegas property expired in accordance with its agreed terms on 30 June 2017, and his involvement with the Star Vegas business ceased on 30 June 2017. Management of the venue has now been taken in-house by Donaco, and all key management roles have been filled, utilising our extensive experience in managing Asian casino operations. We move ahead into FY18 in full operational control of the venue. Star Vegas is a world class gaming and entertainment property and following the transition to full management control, we have additional flexibility to implement initiatives to increase visitation and performance. As part of our strategy to increase visitation from international players, we signed a contract in June 2016 with international casino marketing agency, Vivo Tower Limited, to sign up international junkets and to bring players to the property from all around Asia. During the year we announced a partnership with Poker King Club to host a major international poker tournament, which was accredited as the South-East Asian leg of the Asian Poker Tour. The event included a press conference held by the guests of honour, the Manchester United ‘Class of ’92’ players. This tied in with the official launch of our Manchester United partnership, which is designed to increase awareness and visitation of Star Vegas property for the target market of middle-class Thai visitors. As we enter FY18 we have made good progress in signing up additional junket operators, with new customers joining us during August and September 2017, and further arrangements due to commence in the coming months. Although we do expect the earnings from the VIP portion of the business to be lower in the September quarter, this line of business is currently rebuilding well. Overall, the main hall and slot machine business has remained robust during the transition period to Donaco management, and we have now been able to implement significant cost savings in the areas of staffing and procurement. Some of our new junket customers will shortly commence offering online gaming as new facilities are built out. In addition, we have brought in a number of professional third-party operators to build new entertainment facilities, at their own cost, for our VIP guests. The new facilities include a nightclub, karaoke rooms and a new café, which will help to generate additional visitation to the property. In Vietnam, the Aristo International Hotel continued to grow strongly over the course of FY17, with impressive EBITDA growth driven by increases in both gaming and non-gaming revenue. Tight cost management resulted in outstanding NPAT growth of 130.9% to RMB31.8 million. Our visitor numbers continued to grow, up 18% to 174,000 over FY17, including a new monthly record of 18,356 players in August 2016. Our marketing strategies were focused on increasing lower volatility mass market play, which drove strong growth in net gaming revenue (up 36%), while our non-gaming revenue also grew, up 12% over the previous year. The average VIP win rate achieved was 2.28%, a slight improvement on last year’s 2.20%. We recorded particularly strong growth in slot machine revenues at the Aristo, up 62% for the year to RMB14.9 million. To capitalise on this growth, we added 10 new Aruze slot machines to the gaming floor in April 2017, which resulted in particularly strong growth of 238% in slot machine revenue in the fourth quarter. In recent years, our focus has been on developing a leading Asian gaming and entertainment brand, and with two blue- chip assets under our management, we are uniquely placed to grow over the long term. I am excited about our prospects as we implement our management plans for our key Star Vegas asset, at a time when we approach the conclusion of Thailand’s official mourning period. We anticipate that the business will gain momentum in FY18, with activity at Star Vegas expected to recover to normal levels following the first quarter. We also expect to benefit from the deal with Vivo Tower, as new entertainment facilities are built out and offered to our guests. This will help to utilise the full capacity of the venue. At the Aristo, we will continue to focus on the mass market and slot machines, to further increase earnings from both the gaming and non-gaming assets. Overall, it is a promising time for our business and we look forward to keeping you updated on the progress of our management initiatives.

In contrast, FY16 included non-recurring items totalling positive $24.1 million. The non-recurring items in FY17 were due to the final $19.0 million management fee expense payable to the Star Vegas vendor (vs $20.5 million in FY16). In addition, there was positive non-cash warrant revaluation income of $1.1 million (vs $2.6 million in FY16); a net foreign exchange loss of $1.1 million (vs none in FY16); and amortisation and other costs associated with a working capital facility, totalling negative $4.6 million (vs negative $1.4 million in FY16). The working capital facility has now been repaid and fully amortised, and no further expense will be incurred in future periods.

Overall, for the full 12 month period, the EBITDA at Star Vegas declined by 6.3% in local currency terms to THB2,107.9 million, due to weaker consumer sentiment and economic conditions in Thailand, following the passing away of the late King. 12 13 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual Report Directors’ Report Directors’ Report The directors present their report, together with the financial statements, on the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as the ‘consolidated entity’) consisting of Donaco International Limited (referred to hereafter as the ‘Company’ or ‘parent entity’) and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year ended 30 June 2017.

The Aristo International Hotel continued to grow substantially, with the strategy to focus on mass market continuing to provide benefits to the Group.

Capital management The Company remains in a growth phase, and the Board aims to retain sufficient cash to pursue growth opportunities and repay debt as priorities. However, with the strong cash generated by the business and no imminent acquisition opportunities, the Board is pleased to announce a new dividend policy of paying out 10–30% of NPAT in the form of dividends, with the intention to provide regular half-yearly dividend payments, subject to the consolidated entity’s then current working capital requirements and growth plans. In addition, the Board has announced an intention to pay a final dividend of 0.5 cents per share, unfranked. The planned record date for the dividend is 6 October 2017, and planned payment date is 20 October 2017. Shareholders should note that the payment of dividends is not guaranteed. Significant changes in the state of affairs There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during FY17. Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year Dividend On 29 August 2017, the Board of Donaco International Limited has announced that it intends to declare an ordinary dividend of 0.5 cents per share, amounting to $4,156,057. The dividend is 100% conduit foreign income and is unfranked. Proposed dates for the dividend payment are: ex-dividend date 5 October 2017, record date 6 October 2017 and payment date 20 October 2017. Refinance of loan with Mega International Commercial Bank Co. Limited The Company has refinanced its term loan facility with Mega International Commercial Bank Co. Limited of Taiwan. The Company has now repaid a total of USD63.4 million in the past two years, with the remaining principal amount of the previous facility standing at USD56.6 million. The previous facility had a three-year term, with the remaining USD56.6 million being repayable within the next 12 months. This consisted of USD20.8 million repayable in January 2018, and the remaining USD35.8 million repayable in July 2018. The new facility is for an amount of USD57 million. The term has been extended to three years from the date of drawdown, which occurred on 28 August 2017, following the completion of the conditions precedent. Under the new loan, 15% of the principal amount is repayable every six months. This means that the next principal repayment has been reduced to approximately USD8.6 million, due in February 2018. The interest rate on the loan has also been reduced slightly, from a margin of 6.75% over the six month USD LIBOR rate, to a margin of 6.0%, provided that the net debt (total borrowings minus cash) of Donaco Hong Kong Limited is less than the EBITDA of Donaco Hong Kong Limited. If net debt exceeds EBITDA, then the margin may increase to a maximum of 6.5%. In addition, a number of covenants controlling capital management (dividends and buybacks) have been relaxed, but there are still some restrictions in place until the remaining principal falls below USD50 million, which is expected to occur following the next repayment in February 2018. Share options On 28 July 2017, the Company announced the expiration of 1,651,883 options on 1 July 2017 in accordance to their terms. The options were part of the FY14 and FY15 option series. Currently, there are 5,444,810 remaining options on issue. No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2017 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the consolidated entity’s operations, the results of those operations, or the consolidated entity’s state of affairs in future financial years. Likely developments and expected results of operations The Company operates leisure and entertainment businesses across the Asia-Pacific region. Our largest business is the Star Vegas Resort & Club, a successful casino and hotel complex in Poipet, Cambodia, on the border with Thailand. Star Vegas was established in 1999, and is the largest and highest quality of the Poipet casino hotels. The property has more than 100 gaming tables, more than 1,500 slot machines, and 385 hotel rooms. Our flagship business is the Aristo International Hotel, a successful boutique casino in northern Vietnam, located on the border with Yunnan Province, China. Established in 2002, the property has recently been expanded to a brand new five-star resort complex with 400 hotel rooms. Donaco is a pioneer casino operator in Vietnam, and owns a 95% interest in the business, in a joint venture with the Government of Vietnam. The operation and marketing of both of these properties will underpin our growth during the next 12 months. Our strategy is to take advantage of the demand for leisure and entertainment in the Asia-Pacific region, and to leverage the experience of the Board and management in the gaming sector. This will complement the growth at the expanded casinos in both Cambodia and Vietnam, and provide for diversification. The Company has now moved to full management control of the Star Vegas operation, following the exit of the former Thai manager. This will provide greater flexibility and control in marketing the property. While VIP earnings at Star Vegas are expected to be lower in the September quarter of FY18 versus the corresponding period last year due to the transition to in-house management, the main hall and slot machine business is robust, and VIP revenues are already rebuilding well as new junket operators enter the property. In addition, no further management fees are payable to the former Thai manager. Material risks to the Company’s strategy include those affecting listed entities generally, and companies operating in Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam generally. These risks include the possibility of adverse macroeconomic developments, such as exchange rate declines; cross- border disputes; or terrorist attacks affecting the Company’s key target markets. Other material risks include the possibility of adverse regulatory change affecting casino operators, such as changes in tax rates, and the possibility of breach of licences or legislation. These risks are carefully monitored by the Board and management team. These key risks should not be taken as the only risks that may affect the Company’s operations, and many risks are outside the control of the Board and management team. Except as noted above, information on likely developments in the operations of the consolidated entity and the expected results of operations have not been included in this report because the directors believe it would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the consolidated entity. Environmental regulations The consolidated entity is not subject to any significant environmental regulation under Australian commonwealth or state law. Company Secretary Benedict Paul Reichel is an Executive Director and the Company Secretary. His qualifications and experience are set out on page 7.

This will complement the growth at the expanded casinos in both Cambodia and Vietnam, and provide for diversification. The Company has now moved to full management control of the Star Vegas operation, following the exit of the former Thai manager. This will provide greater flexibility and control in marketing the property. While VIP earnings at Star Vegas are expected to be lower in the September quarter of FY18 versus the corresponding period last year due to the transition to in-house management, the main hall and slot machine business is robust, and VIP revenues are already rebuilding well as new junket operators enter the property. In addition, no further management fees are payable to the former Thai manager. Material risks to the Company’s strategy include those affecting listed entities generally, and companies operating in Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam generally. These risks include the possibility of adverse macroeconomic developments, such as exchange rate declines; cross- border disputes; or terrorist attacks affecting the Company’s key target markets. Other material risks include the possibility of adverse regulatory change affecting casino operators, such as changes in tax rates, and the possibility of breach of licences or legislation. These risks are carefully monitored by the Board and management team. These key risks should not be taken as the only risks that may affect the Company’s operations, and many risks are outside the control of the Board and management team. Except as noted above, information on likely developments in the operations of the consolidated entity and the expected results of operations have not been included in this report because the directors believe it would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the consolidated entity. Environmental regulations The consolidated entity is not subject to any significant environmental regulation under Australian commonwealth or state law. Company Secretary Benedict Paul Reichel is an Executive Director and the Company Secretary. His qualifications and experience are set out on page 7.

Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the entity, directly or indirectly, including all directors. The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings: • • • • principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration details of remuneration share-based compensation additional disclosures relating to key management personnel. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration Introduction The performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract and retain high quality personnel, and motivate them to achieve high performance. The objective of the consolidated entity’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and it is considered to conform to the market best practice for the delivery of reward. Board oversight The Board has an established Nominations, Remuneration & Corporate Governance Committee (the Remuneration Committee), consisting only of Non-Executive Directors, with a majority of independent directors. It is primarily responsible for setting the overall remuneration policy and guidelines for the Company, and its functions include: • reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval, the Company’s general approach towards remuneration, and to oversee the development and implementation of remuneration programs • reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval, corporate goals and objectives relevant to the remuneration of the Managing Director/CEO, and evaluating the performance of the Managing Director/CEO in light of those goals and objectives; • • reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval, remuneration programs applicable to the Company executives, and ensuring that these programs differ from the structure of remuneration for Non-Executive Directors; and reviewing the remuneration of Non-Executive Directors, and ensuring that the structure of Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration is clearly distinguished from that of executives by ensuring that Non-Executive Directors are remunerated by way of fees, do not participate in schemes designed for the remuneration of executives, do not receive options or bonus payments, and are not provided with retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation. Remuneration framework In consultation with external remuneration consultants when necessary (refer to the section ‘Use of Remuneration Consultants’ below), the Remuneration Committee has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the consolidated entity. The framework is designed to satisfy the following key criteria for good reward governance practices: • • • aligned to shareholders’ interests competitiveness and reasonableness performance linkage/alignment of executive compensation • transparency. The remuneration framework is aligned to shareholders’ interests, it: • has economic profit as a core component of plan design • focuses on sustained growth in shareholders’ wealth, consisting of growth in share price, as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of values • attracts and retains high-calibre executives. The remuneration framework is also aligned to program participants’ interests, because it: • • rewards capability and experience reflects competitive rewards for contribution to growth in shareholders’ wealth • provides a clear structure for earning rewards. All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at cost to the Company and expensed. In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structures of remuneration for Non-Executive Directors and for executives are separate. Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration Fees and payments to Non-Executive Directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the directors. Non-Executive Directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee. The Remuneration Committee may, from time to time, receive advice from independent remuneration consultants to ensure Non-Executive Directors’ fees and payments are appropriate and in line with the market. There are no bonuses payable to Non-Executive Directors, and there are no termination payments for Non-Executive Directors on retirement from office, other than statutory superannuation entitlements. Non-Executive Directors are not granted options. ASX Listing Rules require that the aggregate of Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration be determined periodically by a general meeting. The most recent determination was at the 2013 Annual General Meeting, where the shareholders approved a maximum aggregate remuneration of $750,000, including statutory superannuation contributions. Executive remuneration The consolidated entity’s remuneration policy is to ensure that executive remuneration packages properly reflect a person’s duties and responsibilities, and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating executives of the highest calibre. As a result, remuneration packages for the Managing Director/CEO and senior executives include both fixed and performance-based remuneration. The executive remuneration and reward framework has three components: • fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary and non-monetary benefits, together with other statutory forms of remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave • • short-term performance incentives long-term incentives, currently consisting of restricted shares purchased on market. The combination of these components comprises the executive’s total remuneration. Fixed remuneration Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation and non-monetary benefits (if any), is determined by considering the scope of the executive’s responsibility, importance to the business, competitiveness in the market and assessed potential. The total remuneration package for executives includes superannuation and other non-cash benefits to reflect the total employment cost to the Company, inclusive of any fringe benefits tax. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee, based on individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of the consolidated entity and comparable market remuneration. Executives may receive their fixed remuneration in the form of cash or other fringe benefits (for example, motor vehicle benefits) where it does not create any additional costs to the consolidated entity and provides additional value to the executive. The objective of the fixed remuneration component is to attract and retain high-quality executives, and to recognise market relativities and statutory requirements. Short-term incentives The short-term incentive (STI) framework provides senior executives with the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus, up to a maximum amount of 50% of base salary. Clear key performance indicators (KPIs) have been established by the Remuneration Committee. Achievement of these KPIs gives the executive an opportunity to earn a fixed percentage of their maximum STI, subject to final review and approval by the Board. For FY17, the KPIs applied and the applicable percentage of STI were: 1. Achievement of the EBITDA target for the Donaco Group (30%) 2. Achievement of the budgeted revenue target for the Star Vegas property, in Thai baht terms (25%) 3. Achievement of the budgeted revenue target for the Aristo property, in Chinese renminbi terms (25%) 4. Achievement of a personal KPI relating to the executive’s individual areas of responsibility (20%). The objective of these KPIs is clearly designed to focus on financial criteria, including top-line revenue growth, while maintaining a focus on disciplined cost control, as expressed through the EBITDA target for the Group. 16 17 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual Report Directors’ Report Directors’ Report Remuneration report (audited) The remuneration report details the key management personnel remuneration arrangements for the consolidated entity, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and its regulations.

Long-term incentives The long-term incentive (LTI) program currently consists of restricted shares purchased on market. This plan was adopted in FY17 to replace the former option plan, which was thought to be excessively complex, and could potentially result in significant dilution of shareholders. Under the new LTI scheme, the Board has actively sought to align senior executive remuneration with shareholder interests. Shares are purchased on market and held in an employee share trust (the Trust). The shares will vest to the employees over the vesting period of three years. The aim of the scheme is to ensure that executives are motivated to think like shareholders, with a focus on taking actions that will lead to sustainable increases in the share price. The structure of the scheme also ensures that there is no dilution of shareholders. The total annual dollar value of shares to be purchased is a maximum of $1,000,000. The number of shares to be purchased each year will depend on the share price at the time that purchases take place. The scheme is executed in a similar manner to an on-market buyback, allowing the Trust to stand in the market and purchase shares at appropriate times. However, the shares will not be cancelled, but will be held in the Trust, to be distributed to employees over the vesting period of three years. LTI awards are made on an annual basis, subject to achievement of applicable KPIs. This ensures that at any given time, the executives have at risk a number of LTI awards, with different vesting periods and amounts. This helps to smooth out both the risk and the cash flow for the Company and for executives. The LTI scheme allows for an award of a maximum of 75% of base salary in the form of restricted shares, subject to achievement of applicable KPIs which are set annually. For FY17, the applicable KPI related to the achievement of the budgeted EBITDA target for the Group. During FY17 the Trust purchased 2,376,653 shares on market in September 2016, at an average price of 41.99 cents per share. Once awarded, these shares will vest over the three year vesting period commencing on 1 July 2017. The objective of the LTI component is to focus on sustainable shareholder value creation, as expressed through share price growth.

STI and LTI awards are dependent on defined KPIs being met, which are primarily financial in nature, and are at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee. In the three years from FY14 to FY16, Donaco’s revenue increased by a compound annual growth rate of 109%.

The Remuneration Committee also considers that the remuneration framework in place will continue to increase shareholder wealth if maintained over the coming years, subject to any adjustments that are necessary or desirable to reflect the Company’s growth. Use of remuneration consultants During the financial year ended 30 June 2016, the consolidated entity received a remuneration recommendation (as defined in the Corporations Act) from Egan Associates Pty Limited, to review its existing remuneration policies and provide market benchmarking. Egan Associates was paid $25,725 plus GST for these services. An agreed set of protocols is put in place at the time of engaging remuneration consultants, to ensure that any remuneration recommendations are free from undue influence from key management personnel. The Board is satisfied that there was no undue influence. There were no remuneration consultants engaged during the financial year ended 30 June 2017. Voting and comments made at the Company’s 2016 Annual General Meeting At the Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on 24 November 2016, 93.09% of the eligible votes received supported the adoption of the remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2016.

STI payments are granted to executives based on specific annual targets and KPIs being achieved. The Board, advised by the Remuneration Committee, applied these criteria in determining the award of performance-based remuneration during the year. Performance-based bonuses were paid in October 2016. Cash bonuses of $676,439 were awarded to the Executive Directors and other key management personnel. A break up of the bonuses paid is in the tables above. For performance during FY17, the relevant criteria for the award of bonuses relate to revenue growth at each operating business, namely Star Vegas and Aristo International Hotel, as well as the achievement of budgeted EBITDA targets for the consolidated entity and a personal KPI for each executive. Remuneration and other terms of employment for the Managing Director, Chief Financial Officer and the other key management personnel (other than Ham Techatut Sukjaroenkraisri) are formalised in contracts of employment. The service agreements specify the components of remuneration, benefits and notice periods. The specified executives are employed under contracts with no fixed term. The Company may terminate the contracts immediately if the executive is guilty of serious misconduct or wilful neglect of duties. Otherwise, the Company may terminate the contracts by giving three months’ notice or paying three months’ salary, or six months in the case of Mr Reichel. In the case of Mr J Lim (Lim K Y), termination for any reason other than just cause will result in a termination payment of 24 months’ base salary (subject to shareholder approval).

Options There were no options issued as part of compensation during the year ended 30 June 2017. Options granted carry no dividend or voting rights.

These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any material impact on the financial performance or position of the consolidated entity. Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. Basis of preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB and the Corporations Act, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and derivative financial instruments. Critical accounting estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity’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. Presentation of the statement of cash flows The consolidated entity has changed its policy to present gaming receipts from customers and payments to junket operators on a net basis in the Statement of Cash Flows. Previously, the receipts and payments were reported on a gross basis based on cash received and paid out. The restated presentation is considered more appropriate as it is consistent with the recognition of income and expenses on a net basis in the profit and loss statement. The comparative figures have been restated. Additionally, the comparative figures have been restated using the average foreign currency rate instead of the closing rate which was used previously.

Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 33. The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Donaco International Limited (‘the Company’ or ‘parent entity’) as at 30 June 2017 and the results of all subsidiaries 34 34 3535 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017 for the year then ended. Donaco International Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the ‘consolidated entity’. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity 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 consolidated entity. The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent. Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Changes in Equity of the Consolidated Entity. Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance. Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The consolidated entity recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss. Operating segments Operating segments are presented using the ‘management approach’, where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers (CODM). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. Foreign currency translation Revenue recognition The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Donaco International Limited’s functional and presentation currency. DNA Star Vegas Co., Ltd, a subsidiary within the Group, has casino and hotel operations in Cambodia. Its functional currency is Thai baht. Donaco Singapore Pte Ltd has an interest in the Lao Cai International Hotel Joint Venture Company which operates a casino and hotel in Vietnam. The functional currency of the Joint Venture Company is Vietnamese dong. The subsidiaries of Donaco that operate in the aforementioned foreign countries are consolidated into the Hong Kong Group (Star Vegas Group) and the Singapore Group (Aristo Group). At this level, the presentation currency is US dollar. Subsequently, these consolidated groups are consolidated with the Australian operations and converted to Australian dollars. Foreign currency transactions Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss. Foreign operations The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using average exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity. Goodwill, casino licence and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operations and translated at the closing rate. The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of. Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the consolidated entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Gaming revenue Revenue at the playing tables is recognised upon the differences between chips at the closing and chips at the opening of each table plus chips transferred from the playing table to the cage, less chips transferred from the cage to the playing table. Revenue is recognised on a net basis after commission and profit sharing is paid to junket operators. Revenue from slot machines represents the amount received over the exchange counter less the amount returned to customers and profit-sharing paid. Sale of goods The consolidated entity sale of goods consists of food and beverages sales. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of sale, when a group entity sells a product to the customer. Rendering of services Revenue from the provision of accommodation and hospitality services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Interest Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. Income tax The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for: • when the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or • when the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 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. The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. Current and non-current classification Assets and liabilities are presented in the Statement of Financial Position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the consolidated entity’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of 36 36 3737 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017 for the year then ended.

Deferred tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. Current and non-current classification Assets and liabilities are presented in the Statement of Financial Position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the consolidated entity’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of 36 36 3737 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017 trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. Cash and cash equivalents 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. Trade and other receivables Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is raised when there is objective evidence that the consolidated entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, the probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation and default or delinquency in payments (more than 60 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable may be impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of 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. Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment. Inventories Inventories include consumable stores, food and beverages and are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first-in-first-out basis and comprises all costs of purchases, conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period of the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, is recognised in the Statement of Profit orLoss and Other Comprehensive Income, in the period in which the reversal occurs. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows: Buildings and structures Machinery and equipment Motor vehicles Office equipment and other Furniture and fittings Consumables 25 years 5–10 years 3–6 years 3–10 years 5 years 1–8 years The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. Leases The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. A distinction is made between finance leases, which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of leased assets, and operating leases, under which the lessor effectively retains substantially all such risks and benefits. Operating lease payments, net of any incentives received from the lessor, are charged to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Intangible assets Land rights The intangible asset includes costs incurred to acquire interests in the usage of land in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam for the original hotel, located in Lao Cai. The term of the agreement is 30 years from the initial licencing date of 19 July 2002. These land use rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis over a period of 30 years, from the licencing date. At the expiry of the land term it is expected, that the relevant state body will consider an application for extension. Casino licence The consolidated entity considers casino licences to be intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. Accordingly, they are not amortised and are tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on casino licences are recognised in the profit or loss. Goodwill Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed. Prepaid construction costs Amounts recognised as prepaid construction costs relate to tranche payments made to third party developers in connection with the construction of the new Lao Cai Casino. Tranche payments are made in advance of construction work being performed in accordance with the terms of the contractor agreements; however, once associated works have been completed an amount equal to the tranche payment is transferred from prepaid construction costs to construction in progress. Once recognised as part of construction in progress the amounts are then carried on the Statement of Financial Position at cost, until such time as the asset is completed and ready for its intended use. Work in progress is not depreciated, but tested for impairment annually. Once ready for its intended use an amount equal to the cost of the completed asset will be transferred to property plant and equipment and accounted for in accordance with the consolidated entity’s accounting policy for property plant and equipment. Impairment of non-financial assets Goodwill and other 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 non-financial assets are reviewed 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. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a cash-generating unit. Trade and other payables These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Borrowings Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the loans or borrowings are classified as non-current. Warrants Warrants issued as part of financing arrangements, which may be net settled in cash or through the issue of shares of the parent entity are recognised as derivative financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss. The fair value of the warrants is determined using the Black-Scholes model. At each reporting date the warrants are revalued to fair value with any difference recognised in the profit or loss. 38 38 3939 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017 trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

The difference between the fair value of the loan facility and the proceeds is then amortised over the term of the loan using the effective interest rate method. Finance costs Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred including interest on short term and long term borrowings. Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Non-accumulating sick leave is expensed to profit or loss when incurred. Other long-term employee benefits The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in non-current liabilities, provided there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability. The liability is 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 credit 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 corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Defined contribution superannuation expense Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. using an amended Black-Scholes-Merton model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, an exercise price multiple, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions. The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods. Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied. If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited. If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification. Share-based payments Fair value measurement Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services. The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interest. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position have been analysed and classified using a fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy consist of the following levels: a. quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1) 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). During the 2016 reporting period, the Group issued warrants which are classified as derivative financial liabilities and which are measured at fair value through profit or loss. The warrants (as detailed in note 19) are classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the value is based on an adjustment to quoted market prices. The warrants are measured using a Black-Scholes model. There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during either the current or previous reporting period. The directors consider that the carrying amount of all other financial assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximate their fair value. Issued capital 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. Where the consolidated entity purchases the Company’s equity instruments, for example as the result of a share buyback or a share-based payment plan, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the owners of Donaco International Limited as treasury shares until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such ordinary shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the owners of Donaco International Limited. Dividends Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, determined or announced by the directors on or before the end of the financial year but not distributed at balance date. Business combinations The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition- date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred to profit or loss. On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated entity’s operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date. Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the consolidated entity remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. The difference between the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non- 40 40 4141 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017 As the warrants were issued in connection with a loan facility, on initial recognition the fair value of the related loan facility is calculated as the difference between the proceeds and the fair value of the warrants.

If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited. If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately.

If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition- date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired, the non- controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred and the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquirer. Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The measurement period ends on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information possible to determine fair value. Earnings per share Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Donaco International Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year and excluding treasury shares. 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. Goods and services tax and other similar taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated good and services tax [GST], unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case, it is recognised as part of the cost of the 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 tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the Statement of Financial Position. Cash flows are presented gross of GST and similar taxes. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority. New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2017. The consolidated entity’s assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below. AASB 9 Financial Instruments AASB 9 Financial Instruments and applicable amendments, effective from 1 January 2018, addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. This standard introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets, using a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortised cost or fair value. It has now also introduced revised rules around hedge accounting and impairment. The consolidated entity will adopt this standard and the amendments from 1 July 2017 and it does not expect this to have a significant impact on the recognition and measurement of the consolidated entity’s financial instruments as they are carried at fair value through profit or loss. The derecognition rules have not been changed from the previous requirements, and the consolidated entity does not apply hedge accounting. AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard provides a single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either written, verbal or implied) to be identified, together with the separate performance obligations within the contract; determine the transaction price, adjusted for the time value of money excluding credit risk; allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on a basis of relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service, or estimation approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. Credit risk will be presented separately as an expense rather than adjusted to revenue. For goods, the performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. For services, the performance obligation is satisfied when the service has been provided, typically for promises to transfer services to customers. For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate measure of progress to determine how much revenue should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied. Contracts with customers will be presented in an entity’s Statement of Financial Position as a contract liability, a contract asset, or a receivable, depending on the relationship between the entity’s performance and the customer’s payment. Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required to enable users to understand the contracts with customers; the significant judgements made in applying the guidance to those contracts; and any assets recognised from the costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. The consolidated entity will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018 and is assessing the impact of its adoption. AASB 16 Leases The new standard will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Early application is permitted, provided the new revenue standard, AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, has been applied, or is applied at the same date as AASB 16. AASB 16 will primarily affect the accounting by lessees and will result in the recognition of almost all leases on the balance sheet. The standard removes the current distinction between operating and financing leases and requires recognition of an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals for almost all lease contracts. The accounting by lessors, however, will not significantly change. The consolidated entity has not elected early adoption and is assessing the impact of its adoption. and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash settled share-based payments and a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash settled to equity settled. Adoption of IFRS 2 is not mandatory until annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2018 and the consolidated entity is assessing the impact of its adoption. New and amended standards adopted by the Group AASB 2014-4 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation (Amendments to AASB 116 and AASB 138) This standard makes amendments to AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment and AASB 138 Intangible Assets. The main principle is to establish the basis of depreciation and amortisation as being the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits of an asset rather than associated to revenue streams. This standard applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. The adoption of the standard has not had a material effect on the financial statements. Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below. IFRS 2 – Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions (Amendments to IFRS 2) Share-based payment transactions This standard amends to IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, clarifying how to account for certain types of share- based payment transactions. The amendments provide requirements on the accounting for the effects of vesting The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.

Operating segments Identification of reportable operating segments The consolidated entity is organised into three operating segments: Casino Operations in Vietnam, Casino Operations in Cambodia and Corporate Operations. These operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers (CODM)) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. There is no aggregation of operating segments. Types of products and services The consolidated entity is domiciled in Australia and operates predominantly in six countries: Australia, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore and Malaysia. The casino operations are segmented geographically between casino operations in Vietnam and Cambodia. The CODM reviews EBITDA. The accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements. The information reported to the CODM is on a monthly basis. The principal products and services of each of these operating segments are as follows: Casino Operations – Vietnam Comprises the Aristo International Hotel operating in Vietnam. These operations include hotel accommodation and gaming and leisure facilities. Casino Operations – Cambodia Comprises the Star Vegas Resort and Club, operating in Cambodia. These operations include hotel accommodation and gaming and leisure facilities. Corporate Operations Comprises of the development and implementation of corporate strategy, commercial negotiations, corporate finance, treasury, management accounting, corporate governance and investor relations functions. an amended Black-Scholes-Merton model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. The value of shares issued to employees is based on the market value of shares traded on the ASX at the time of issue. in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The consolidated entity recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on the consolidated entity’s current understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. Estimation of useful lives of assets Business combinations The consolidated entity determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and finite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down. The casino licence is stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. The licence issued by the Royal Government of Cambodia is renewable annually and deemed to be with indefinite useful life, and therefore should not be amortised. Its useful life is reviewed at each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to exist to support indefinite useful life assessment. An impairment test, by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount, is performed annually. In the event that the expected future economic benefits are no longer probable of being recovered, the licences are written down to their recoverable amount. Goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on the higher of value-in-use calculations and fair value less costs of disposal. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows. Income tax The consolidated entity is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates, including Cambodia, Vietnam and Hong Kong. Significant judgement is required As discussed in note 1, business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The fair value of assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed are initially estimated by the consolidated entity taking into consideration all available information at the reporting date. Fair value adjustments on the finalisation of the business combination accounting is retrospective, where applicable, to the period the combination occurred and may have an impact on the assets and liabilities, depreciation and amortisation reported. Warrants The consolidated entity measures the cost of warrants issued by the reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value of warrants is determined by using an amended Black-Scholes-Merton model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. Employee share trust and option trust The consolidated entity has engaged an external unrelated third party to form trusts to administer the Group’s employee share schemes. The consolidated entity has no ownership interest in the trusts and the trusts are not consolidated as they are not controlled by the consolidated entity. In determining whether or not the consolidated entity had control over the trusts, management considered the trust’s status as an independent trust with an independent trustee, which holds the assets for the benefit of the employees rather than the consolidated entity. In making this determination management have considered a number of factors, the most relevant being that the trust deed which governs the trusts, outlines that the trustees have no obligation to comply with the consolidated entity’s directions in respect of the allocation and issue of shares and share options. 44 44 45 45 Donaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportDonaco International Limited / 2017 Annual ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year eNded 30 JuNe 2017 Note 3.

To calculate this, cash flow projections are based on financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five-year period. The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least on an annual basis. To do so, the Group employs a value in use calculation using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by senior management. Management has forecast a strong growth rate in budgeted gross margin for FY18 based on the growth in revenue from Aristo’s main gaming floor, VIP gaming, and the increase in the number of slot machines. The new hotel room, entertainment, restaurant and bar revenue lines, with associated marketing programs, will increase visitation to the new hotel, which will also contribute to overall revenue growth. Gross margin projections for future years are based on past performance and management’s expectations for future performance in each segment. Management determined budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations for the future and are considered to be reasonably achievable. The weighted average growth rates used are consistent with forecasts included in industry reports.

DNA Star Vegas – casino licence The casino licence relates to the licence to operate the DNA Star Vegas casino acquired on 1 July 2015. The licence is stated at cost less any impairment losses. This intangible asset is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit of DNA Star Vegas has been determined based on the fair value less costs of disposal. An independent valuation of the 100% equity interest in DNA Star Vegas Company Limited was undertaken as at 31 March 2017. Adjustments were made to determine the fair value less cost of disposal of the cash- generating units which was reasonably determined to be $497,685,767 (USD380,431,000 converted at the spot rate). The valuation was determined using budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations for the future and are considered to be reasonably achievable. The valuation is classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy as it was based on a 10 year cash flow forecast period. The weighted average growth rates used are consistent with forecasts included in industry reports. The valuation uses a growth rate of 4.5% in the first year, 4% in the following nine years and a terminal growth rate of 3%. The discount rates used of 16.31% reflect specific risks relating to the relevant segments and the countries in which they operate. The valuation was determined using a foreign exchange rate between Thai baht and US dollar of 34.353 THB:1 USD. A capital expenditure percentage of 1.5% has also been included in the valuation. Furthermore, the valuation includes a Discount for Lack of Marketability (DLOM) of 25%. The recoverable amount calculation for the cash-generating unit of DNA Star Vegas is most sensitive to changes in the DLOM changes in growth rate, EBIT margin on sales and a change in exchange rate between Thai baht and US dollar. An increase in excess of 1% in the DLOM would result in impairment of the cash generating unit of DNA Star Vegas. Additionally, an increase in excess of 0.5 THB:1 USD would result in impairment of the cash-generating unit of DNA Star Vegas. Management reassessed the position as at 30 June 2017 based on this valuation and determined that no impairment needed to be recognised as at 30 June 2017. Land use right An intangible asset of $32,353 (2016: $36,397) which relates to a 30-year land use right in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Land use right is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. The amortisation period is 30 years.

Events after the reporting period Dividend On 29 August 2017, the Board of Donaco International Limited has announced that it intends to declare an ordinary dividend of 0.5 cents per share, amounting to $4,156,057. The dividend is 100% conduit foreign income and is unfranked. Proposed dates for the dividend payment are: ex-dividend date, 5 October 2017; record date, 6 October 2017; and payment date, 20 October 2017. Refinance of loan with Mega International Commercial Bank Co. Limited The Company announced to the ASX on 15 August 2017 that it has refinanced its loan facility with Mega International Commercial Bank Co. Limited of Taiwan (Mega Bank). Of the original USD100 million term loan facility with Mega Bank drawn down in July 2015 and the additional USD20 million drawn down in July 2016, the Company has repaid a total of USD63.4 million in the past two years, with the remaining principal amount of the previous facility standing at USD56.6 million. The previous facility had a three-year term, with the remaining USD56.6 million being repayable within the next 12 months. This consisted of USD20.8 million repayable in January 2018, and the remaining USD35.8 million repayable in July 2018. The new facility will be for an amount of USD57 million. The term has been extended to three years from the date of drawdown, which occurred on 28 August 2017, following the completion of the conditions precedent. Under the new loan, 15% of the principal amount is repayable every six months. This means that the next principal repayment has been reduced to approximately USD8.6 million, due in February 2018. The interest rate on the loan has also been reduced slightly, from a margin of 6.75% over the six month LIBOR rate, to a margin of 6.0%, provided that the net debt (total borrowings minus cash) of Donaco Hong Kong Limited is less than the EBITDA of Donaco Hong Kong Limited. If net debt exceeds EBITDA, then the margin may increase to a maximum of 6.5%. In addition, a number of covenants controlling capital management (dividends and buybacks) have been relaxed, but there are still some restrictions in place until the remaining principal falls below USD50 million, which is expected to occur following the next repayment in February 2018. Share options On 28 July 2017, the Company announced the expiration of 1,651,883 options on 1 July 2017 in accordance with their terms. The options were part of the FY14 option series. Currently, there are 5,444,810 remaining options on issue. No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2017 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the consolidated entity’s operations, the results of those operations, or the consolidated entity’s state of affairs in future financial years.

Revenue recognition for casino revenue (Notes 1 and 4) Key Audit Matter The consolidated entity’s revenue is predominantly made up of revenue from gaming. Revenue recognition for casino revenue is a key audit matter because of the high volume of transactions and the relationship with junket operators and joint venture partners that supports a significant portion of the revenue generating capability of the consolidated entity. How we addressed the key audit matter Our audit procedures included the following:  Visited the casinos in Cambodia and Vietnam, in January 2017 to gain an understanding of the consolidated entity’s revenue recognition processes, including how gaming transactions with customers are initiated and settled, gaining an understanding of the impact of commission arrangements with junket operators, and forming a view about the key drivers and relationships that are used to monitor revenue.  Challenged the adequacy of revenue recognition accounting policies, classification and disclosures in the financial report.
