TEAM HARVEY JUNIOR: 
BUILDING A BRIGHT FUTURE  
FOR THE SPORTSWOMEN  
OF TOMORROW.

Harvey Norman® has been a driving force behind the promotion of female 

athletes for over a decade – ensuring they get the support they need and the 

recognition they deserve. In 2017, the Team Harvey project was launched as 

a way to harness corporate sponsorship to highlight the achievements of 

Australian sportswomen, provide them assistance in achieving their goals, 

and to help create new pathways for young women to get involved in the 

sports they love.

To continue that work, in 2018 we launched Team Harvey Junior – an 

initiative that provides sponsorship for junior female sporting teams 

across the country. 

Research has shown that girls have fewer opportunities to  

play sports during their high school years than boys have at  

that same age. Contributing factors and obstacles include a lack of 

access to adequate local playing facilities, a cut in school sports 

budgets, transportation & safety issues, and peer pressure about 

body image. It is also often the case that the quality level of sports 

activities offered for girls declines after a certain age, where the 

availability of coaching and resources may be more focused on 

boys’ programs that are traditionally better funded.

That’s where our sponsorship can help.

We started with a call-out to Australian girls in sport with the 

plan to give ten youth teams a head-start with $5,000 each 

in sponsorship. The response we received shows just how 

much work there is to be done in this area, with over 1,500 

submissions coming in from 103 different sports, covering 

all states and territories, and representing young athletes 

from 8-16 years old.

The sponsorship we provide can help with purchasing 

new uniforms, cover training or travel expenses, and 

help with resurfacing a court or pitch. It’s a small start, 

but we’re proud that our sponsorship is playing a part 

to help ensure a bright future for young girls in sport 

in Australia.

CHAIRMAN AND CEO’S REPORT 

Dear Shareholder, 

The underlying results for the year ended 30 June 2018 have seen us deliver a solid profit before tax of $532.54 million.  On an underlying 
basis, this represents a marginal reduction of 0.96% from the unprecedented, record-breaking underlying profit result that we delivered in 
the 2017 financial year of $537.70 million.  This underlying result is exclusive of net property revaluation adjustments and the impairment 
losses and joint venture trading losses incurred with respect to our investment in the Coomboona Holdings Pty Limited dairy joint venture in 
Northern Victoria.    

Reported profit before tax was $530.17 million for the year ended 30 June 2018, a decrease of $109.63 million, or 17.1%, from $639.81 million 
for the year ended 30 June 2017. 

The PBT return on our net assets was 18.05% for the 2018 financial year.  These results represent the ongoing strength of our underlying 
business model, and demonstrate the value of our integrated retail, franchise, property and digital strategy.  This integrated approach 
ensures that we will continue to evolve to meet the needs and demands of both customers and emerging new technologies.  Our 
franchisees and company-operated stores are consistently at the leading edge of Home and Lifestyle retailing – meeting the needs of their 
customers via an integrated in-store and online engagement model that enables them to effectively anticipate and respond to changes in 
key product categories. 

The performance of our overseas Harvey Norman® branded company-operated stores has been outstanding and this segment now 
represents 22% of the total consolidated profit before tax result.  Each offshore region has delivered their best trading result and highest 
profitability, both individually and in aggregate, since launching overseas.  The retail segment result for the Harvey Norman® company-
operated stores overseas reached $116.13 million for the current year, up a solid 15.1% from an excellent, unprecedented segment result of 
$100.86 million in the 2017 financial year.  From humble beginnings with the introduction of the Harvey Norman® brand overseas in 1997, the 
past 20 years of trading outside of the Australian market, has propelled the Harvey Norman® brand to a strong global player with solid results 
achieved by the 89 company-operated stores across 7 countries.  Retail sales in New Zealand were just under $1 BILLION in local currency, 
whilst sales in Asia were just under $0.500 BILLION for the 2018 financial year.   

We intend to capitalise on the excellent performance overseas and plan to invest substantially in growing our offshore Harvey Norman® store 
network, particularly in South East Asia.  Our robust balance sheet and strong cash flows enable us to seize on opportunities as they arise.  
We are actively exploring new sites and there is an expectation to open up to 18 new Harvey Norman® company-operated stores overseas 
within the next 2 years.  We expect to have circa 107 Harvey Norman® company-operated stores overseas by the end of 2020.  This 
anticipated 20% expansion in store locations overseas is likely to be the beginning of our biggest organic growth spurt in over a decade.   

Our plans for expansion overseas are strong, particularly in Malaysia.  Since 2010, the population growth in Malaysia has been in excess of 
400,000 per year and currently sits at 32.1 million.  There is the potential to increase our retail footprint in Malaysia from 16 Harvey Norman® 
stores today to over 50 stores by the end of 2023.

Our Flagship strategy is continuously evolving and we will soon have one Flagship store in each of the eight countries in which we, or our 
franchisees, operate.  These stores will provide customers with the kind of tactile and interactive shopping experience that can’t be found 
online, and generate excitement in the retail sector as a whole.  The Flagship stores are unrivalled in terms of design and technology, 
showcasing the best global brands and product range available on the market, creating a truly unparalleled shopping experience.  On 30 
June 2018, we launched our Flagship store at Wairau Park, Auckland (New Zealand) to much acclaim.  We have had a delay in the delivery of 
our Flagship store at Zagreb, Croatia which is on track to be launched by the end of September 2018.  In Australia, we have already seen the 
positive impact of the launch of the first stage of the Auburn Flagship complex in Sydney with the transformation of the Computers and 
Electrical categories.  The final stage of the Auburn Flagship complex will be completed by September 2018 with the launch of the Furniture, 
Bedding and Floorcoverings categories.  Our Flagship strategy further cements the positioning of our brand as an international leader in 
Home and Lifestyle retailing. 

In Australia, our franchisee model continues to perform solidly, making them the dominant player in the domestic Home and Lifestyle market.  
Aggregated franchisee sales revenue increased 2.6% – or $144.28 million – to reach $5.76 billion for the year, and quarterly aggregated 
franchisee sales revenue continues to grow steadily.  Comparable aggregated franchisee sales revenue increased 2.2% - or $124.32 million – 
to $5.72 billion for the current year.  Amid increasing competition within an already competitive market, franchisees performed well, meeting 
market pressures which had accelerated within the last 6 months of the 2018 financial year.  Franchisees have continued to invest in their 
people and ensure that their staff are equipped with the best skills and tools to seamlessly service their customers.

CHAIRMAN AND CEO’S REPORT (CONTINUED) 

The franchising operations segment result reduced by 7.2% from $304.53 million in the 2017 year to $282.54 million in the 2018 financial 
year.  The franchising operations margin was 4.90% for the 2018 financial year compared to 5.42% for the preceding year.  The franchising 
operations segment was negatively impacted by a combination of lower franchise fees received from franchisees and higher tactical support 
required during the year to protect, enhance and promote the Harvey Norman®, Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® brands.  Tactical support 
increased by $10.50 million relative to prior year, of which $7.80 million related to tactical support to assist a B2B franchisee with a 
restructure in Q4 of FY18.  Like our franchisees, we have further invested in our people, our brand, and in the development and enhancement 
of the tools we provide our franchisees to enable them to seamlessly service their customers.  This investment has contributed to the 
reduction in the franchising operations segment result during the 2018 financial year.   

Our ongoing commitment to ensuring a seamless relationship with the customer has seen the ongoing identification and introduction of new 
opportunities and the continued development and enhancement of existing capabilities.  The ongoing development of the Online-to-Offline 
(O2O) Strategy and the evolution of delivery services and fulfilment options offered by franchisees in Australia is at the core of the ‘Customer 
First’ approach.  The Click & Collect App is fully operational across Australia and New Zealand, enabling customers to track the status of their 
order through real-time notifications.  The LivePerson digital service platform provides customers with the ability to communicate with 
franchisees through whichever channel they desire at whatever time suits them best.  Franchisees and customers have benefitted from the 
technological initiatives carried out during the year, including the developments in real-time inventory and delivery-tracking systems, quick 
reserve options and the evolution of delivery pathways.   

Our strong property portfolio was valued at $2.86 billion as of 30 June 2018 and still continues to be our driving point of difference and 
competitive advantage in the Australian market.  With emerging or restructured competitors – both big or small, online or physical – our 
robust investment property portfolio keeps us a step-ahead and ready to anticipate and respond to the evolving and dynamic needs of 
consumers.   Our physical complexes provide the flexible, large footprint needed to showcase the best on offer and demonstrate the 
maximum capabilities of those products to integrate and connect our busy day-to-day lives.    

All-in-all, the 2018 financial year has been a strong one, particularly on the back of the previous record-breaking 2017 financial year result.   

We’d like to thank all of our staff for their continued enthusiasm, and pay tribute to the hard work of our franchisees throughout the year.  As 
a shareholder, your continued support and confidence in our direction ensures a prosperous future for us all. 

G. HARVEY                                                                 K.L. PAGE

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 

Underlying Profit 

HIGHLIGHTS: UNDERLYING PROFIT 
The performance of our overseas Harvey Norman® branded company-operated stores has been 
outstanding and this segment now represents 22% of the total consolidated profit before tax result.  
Each offshore region has delivered their best trading result and highest profitability, both individually and 
in aggregate, since launching overseas.   

The PBT return on net assets was 18.05% for FY2018.  

Our Flagship Strategy is continuously evolving and we will soon have 1 Flagship store in each of the 8 
countries in which we, or our franchisees, operate.   

A solid result for FY2018, particularly on the back of the previous record-breaking FY2017 result.   

We plan to invest substantially in growing our offshore Harvey Norman® store network, with an 
expectation to open up to 18 new stores overseas within the next 2 years, particularly in South East Asia. 

$532.54 million underlying net profit before tax down by -0.96% from $537.70 million in FY17  
(excluding net property revaluation adjustments, Coomboona trading losses and Coomboona impairment losses) 

Including: 
 
 

$116.13 million profit from the company-operated offshore retail operations, up +15.1% from $100.86 million in FY17; 
$282.54 million franchising operations segment profit result, down -7.2% from $304.53 million in FY17, mainly due to a 
combination of lower franchise fees received from franchisees and higher tactical support required to protect, enhance 
and promote the brands, in addition to a rise in other costs to operate the franchising operations segment.  Franchisees 
in Australia performed well in the face of increased competition and competitive pricing, which had accelerated in the 2nd 
half of FY18.  Franchisees have continued to invest in their people to ensure that their staff are equipped with the best 
skills and tools to drive sales growth and seamlessly service their customers; 
$136.92 million profit from the property segments (excluding net property revaluation adjustments), down -1.8% from 
$139.42 million in FY17 primarily due to increased borrowing costs for the acquisition and refurbishment of property 
assets as rents and outgoings remained strong;  
$5.88 million profit from the equity investments segment, down -3.2% from $6.08 million in FY17, reflecting a reduction 
in the market value of the listed securities portfolio, net of the dividends and any capital profits or losses generated from 
the sale of listed securities during the year; and  
($8.94) million net loss from non-core joint ventures included in the other segment and other non-franchised retail 
segment (excluding Coomboona JV trading losses and Coomboona JV impairment losses), an improvement of +32.2% 
from the net loss of ($13.19) million in FY17 mainly due to an improvement in the trading results of our credit facilities 
segment (excluding the Coomboona joint venture), lower impairment losses recognised on commercial loans to a non-
core retail business by $1.49 million and the impairment loss of $0.43 million recognised in the prior year in respect of a 
mining camp accommodation joint venture.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 

Reported Profit Before Tax (PBT) 

HIGHLIGHTS: REPORTED PROFIT BEFORE TAX 
Profit before tax for the year-ended 30 June 2018 was negatively impacted by two main factors: 

(1)  A reduction in the net property revaluation increment for the property portfolio by $56.41 million, 

down from $108.05 million in FY17 to $51.65 million in FY18 primarily due to the impact of 
rezoning potential to medium-density residential leading to a significant increase for a property 
in NSW in the previous year; and 

(2)  The recognition of impairment losses of $49.44 million in respect of the Coomboona Holdings 

dairy joint venture (Coomboona JV) comprised of: (i) a $20.67 million write-down of the equity-
accounted investment in the Coomboona JV in December 2017, and (ii) an estimated shortfall in 
the recovery of the loans advanced to the Coomboona JV of $28.78 million.  

$530.17 million net profit before tax for FY18 compared to $639.81 million for FY17,  
a decrease of $109.63 million or -17.1% from prior year 

Main factors contributing to the result: 

  $15.27 million increase in the profitability of the overseas company-operated retail locations to $116.13 

million, up +15.1% from $100.86 million in FY17.  The increased contribution from each region included: Singapore & 
Malaysia +$5.71 million (+29.6%) due to the reformat and launch of the Flagship store at Ikano, Kuala Lumpur 
(Malaysia) and the new Viva City Mega Mall in Kuching, Sarawak (Malaysia) both in November 2017, the opening of the 
Viva City Factory Outlet (Singapore) in July 2017, the expansion to full-format stores of the Parkway Parade (Singapore) 
and North Point (Singapore) stores and the continued growth in the Flagship Millenia Walk (Singapore) store; Ireland & 
Northern Ireland +$3.90 million (+157%) due to the launch of the Flagship store in Tallaght, Dublin (Ireland) in July 
2017 and the ongoing success of the Boucher Road Flagship store in South Belfast (Northern Ireland).  During the year 
there was a realignment of accounting treatment of lease incentives income in Ireland by $1.03 million and a release of 
the lease incentive relating to the Holywood store in Northern Ireland of $1.08 million; New Zealand +$2.88 million 
(+3.6%) resulting from modest sales and market share growth in New Zealand during FY18 amidst a slowdown in the NZ 
economy and a cooling housing market in Auckland; and Slovenia & Croatia +$2.77 million (+60%) due to the launch 
of the refurbished Flagship store at BTC City Ljubljana (Slovenia) in June 2017 creating a positive ‘halo-effect’ for the 
other four Harvey Norman® company-operated stores in Slovenia with growth rates in excess of 20%.  Pleasingly, the 
store at Zagreb (Croatia) has performed well, boosting sales by over 17% during the renovation period.  The refurbished 
Zagreb Flagship store will be launched by the end of September 2018. 

($58.90) million decrease in the overall property segment profit result to $188.57 million, down -23.8% from 
$247.47 million in FY17, mainly attributable to a ($56.41) million or -52.2% decrease in the net property revaluation 
increment from $108.05 million in FY17 to $51.65 million in FY18 and higher borrowing costs (due to the increased 
utilisation of debt facilities for property acquisitions) offset by higher rent and outgoings collected from property segment 
assets.  

($43.81) million deterioration in the net loss from non-core joint ventures included in the other segment and 
other non-franchised retail segment to a net loss of ($62.95) million, from a net loss of ($19.14) million in FY17.  
This is mainly due to higher impairment losses by $47.52 million for the write-down of the equity-accounted investment 
in the  Coomboona JV of $20.67 million in December 2017, the impairment loss for the estimated shortfall in the recovery 
of loans advanced to the Coomboona JV of $28.78 million, offset by lower impairment losses recognised on commercial 
loans to a non-core retail business by $1.49 million and the impairment loss of $0.43 million recognised in the prior year in 
respect of a mining camp accommodation joint venture.  

($21.99) million decrease in the franchising operations segment profit result to $282.54 million, down -7.2% 
from $304.53 million in FY17.  Franchisees achieved aggregated franchisee sales growth of 2.6% to $5.76 billion – a solid 
effort from franchisees despite increased competition and competitive pricing to maintain market share, particularly in 
the 2nd half of FY18.  Despite higher aggregated franchisee sales revenue during the year, there was reduction in gross 
revenue from franchisees during the year by $2.63 million, or -0.3%, to $1.04 billion.  Coupled with the higher tactical 
support payments by $10.50 million, of which $7.80 million tactical support was paid to assist a B2B franchisee with a 
restructure in Q4 of FY18, the performance of the franchising operations segment reduced by $21.99 million relative to 
prior period and the franchising operations margin moderated from 5.42% in FY17 to 4.90% in FY18.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 

Reported PBT Return on Net Assets % 

The consolidated entity attributes the achievement of a consistently strong PBT return on net assets to the following key drivers focussed 
on creating sustainable growth and maximising value to our stakeholders: 

  We operate a diversified, unique business model – the consolidated entity operates an integrated retail, franchise, property and digital 

strategy that continues to deliver strong, stable income streams. 

  We are not just limited to the Australian market and we have a significant retail footprint across 8 countries – the consolidated entity 

has 195 franchised complexes in Australia and 89 Harvey Norman® company-operated stores across 7 offshore regions.    

 

 

 

Our Board of Directors and management team in Australia and each offshore region are business savvy and experienced in retail and 
property, who have an in-depth understanding and appreciation of the key drivers of the discretionary retail market – the consolidated 
entity continues to invest in its leaders and their people and prides itself on the longevity, tenure and breadth of knowledge of the 
Harvey Norman®, Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® brands of key personnel to effectively position the brand in each of the differing 
markets. 

Our retail strategy and retail mix encompasses the entire Home and Lifestyle market - franchisees and company-operated stores 
continue to be dominant players across all key categories within the Home and Lifestyle market.  This diversified offering and the 
extensive product range is flexible and capable of withstanding changing competitive pressures and headwinds of specific product 
categories to effectively respond to evolving consumer dynamics and desires. 

Our robust property portfolio of $2.86 billion continues to be our point of difference and competitive advantage - with emerging or 
restructured competitors – both big or small, online or physical – the resilient investment property portfolio keeps the consolidated 
entity a step-ahead and provides the flexible, large footprint needed to showcase the best on offer.   

Net Profit After Tax & Non-Controlling Interests (PAT&NCI) 

Net profit after tax and non-controlling interests (NCI) decreased by 16.4%, or $73.60 million, to $375.38 million for the year-ended 30 June 
2018, from $448.98 million in the previous year.  The effective income tax rate for the year-ended 30 June 2018 was 28.32% compared to an 
effective income tax rate of 29.20% for the year-ended 30 June 2017.   

Excluding the after tax net property revaluation increments, the Coomboona JV trading losses and the Coomboona JV impairment loss from 
the result, underlying net profit after tax and non-controlling interests for the 2018 financial year reduced by 0.1%, or $0.38 million, to 
$377.03 million, from $377.42 million in the previous year.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 

Company-Operated Retail Segment 

Total aggregated company-operated retail sales revenue is almost at the $2 billion milestone for the 2018 financial year, the strongest-ever 
sales performance for the retail segment, growing by $157.72 million, or 8.6%, to $1.99 billion relative to $1.83 billion in the previous year.  
Retail sales for the 39 Harvey Norman® stores in New Zealand alone have almost reached $1 BILLION in local currency, whilst sales in Asia are 
nearly at $0.500 BILLION for the 2018 financial year.  Total company-operated revenue broke the $2 billion barrier in the 2018 financial year 
hitting $2.03 billion for the year, an increase of $158.53 million, or 8.5%, in aggregate relative to $1.88 billion in the 2017 financial year.  

Each offshore region has reported stronger sales growth and market share gains during the year with the Flagship stores in each country 
leading the way and providing increased brand awareness and consumer traction to existing or new stores in the region.  The commendable 
performance of the company-operated retail segment affirms the concerted focus on developing and enhancing the Flagship strategy.  The 
aim of the consolidated entity is nothing short of creating the best Home and Lifestyle retail destinations in the world, with Harvey Norman® 
being the ‘go to’ brand for an aspirational and interactive shopping experience.   

The result before tax for the company-operated retail segment increased $14.11 million, or 15.5%, to $104.96 million for the year ended 30 
June 2018, from $90.85 million in the 2017 financial year.  This is an excellent result considering the overseas company-operated stores 
grew from a record base in the preceding year. 

In local currency, the market-leading Harvey Norman® brand in New Zealand was just under the $1 BILLION mark with sales soaring to 
$NZ987.20 million up by 4.9%, or $NZ46.50 million, from $NZ940.69 million in the previous financial year.  This was particularly remarkable 
due to the headwinds faced by the New Zealand economy during the year, with a slowdown in the housing market, the net migration 
decrease and a change in government in October 2017, all impacting the retail climate and consumer sentiment in its own way.

Company-Operated Retail Segment (continued) 

The 72,000 sq feet Flagship store at Wairau Park, North Auckland has undergone a significant renovation during the year and the store 
continued to trade strongly throughout the refurbishment period.  The Wairau Park Flagship store launched in its new format to much 
acclaim at the end of June 2018, boosting sales early into the 2019 financial year.   

No new company-operated stores were opened in the New Zealand market during the 2018 financial year, however sales were assisted by a 
full year’s trading of the Queenstown store which opened in October 2016.  There were sales and market share growth in all key categories, 
amid an increasingly competitive market.  Continued strong supplier collaborations to promote exclusive, high-end product lines and 
competitive pricing strategies, has given the company-operated stores in New Zealand a noteworthy competitive edge.  Translated into 
Australian dollars, sales revenue increased 2.4%, or $20.99 million, to $909.52 million.   

The business has continued to focus on cost control to achieve optimal operating leverage, coupled with an unwavering desire to 
outperform previous performance and surpass the market in general to maintain the clear market leader position.  Despite the challenges 
faced during the 2018 financial year, the retail result in New Zealand increased by $2.88 million, or 3.6%, to $82.31 million for the year ended 
30 June 2018, up from $79.43 million in the 2017 financial year.     

Aggregated sales revenue for the Harvey Norman® and Space Furniture® brands combined was just under the $0.500 BILLION mark with 
retail sales of $S497.92 million in local currency, up by 14.0%, or $S61.23 million, from $S436.69 million in the 2017 financial year.  

In Singapore, the 13 Harvey Norman® branded stores increased sales revenue in local currency by $S55.78 million, or 20.3%, to $S330.28 
million for the 2018 financial year, from $S274.50 million in the previous year.  Growth in sales revenue was assisted by the opening of the 
new Viva City Factory Outlet in July 2017 and the expansion of the existing stores located at Parkway Parade (in August 2017) and North 
Point City (in December 2017) to incorporate full-concept stores during the current year.  The unrivalled strength of the Millenia Walk Flagship 
store continued to underpin sales during the year, bolstering the appeal of the Harvey Norman® brand in Singapore.   

Sales revenue from the 16 Harvey Norman® branded stores in Malaysia were strong, especially during the last 6 months of the 2018 financial 
year following the launch of the Ikano, Kuala Lumpur Flagship store in November 2017.  The successful Flagship launch drove the 
commendable rise in sales revenue in local currency by $S14.44 million, or 10.5%, to $S152.33 million for the 2018 financial year, from 
$S137.89 million in the previous year.  This was a significant improvement to the Malaysian sales performance reported in the December 2017 
half where retail sales had remained consistent with the previous corresponding half.   

The November 2017 Ikano launch was well-received and pleasingly, overall, the relocation and reformat of the site has delivered strong sales 
despite a temporary closure during the renovation period which had covered a large part of the first half of 2018.  The solid performance of 
Ikano, coupled with the reinvigorated Harvey Norman® brand in Malaysia, had a positive halo-effect on the other existing stores in Kuala 
Lumpur.  Sales were also assisted by a full year’s trading of the Sunway Velocity store which had opened in the previous year.  The 
consolidated entity has earmarked Malaysia to be the main region for growth over the next 2 years.  The consolidated entity expects to 
continue its investment in Malaysia with an expected expansion of the Harvey Norman® company-store network in Malaysia by an additional 
9 sites by the end of 2020. 

Sales revenue for the Space Furniture® brand in Singapore was lower by $S7.78 million in the 2018 financial year due to a significant 
reduction in project sales following the sharp slowdown in construction within the prestige property market. Softer consumer sentiment in 
the high-end retail furniture market had also impacted the Space Furniture® retail sales in Singapore.  Sales were lower for the Space 
Furniture brand in Malaysia by $S1.20 million due to a reduction in project sales.  Sales were boosted in the previous financial year by the 
renovation sale as the Space Furniture® store in Malaysia was reconfigured and refurbished.   

The segment profit result of the two brands in Asia was $25.01 million for the year-ended 30 June 2018 compared to a segment result of 
$19.30 million in the previous year, an increase of $5.71 million, or 29.6%.  This is an excellent result in a highly competitive market.   

Sales revenue from the 5 company-operated stores in Slovenia increased €10.23 million, or 18.2%, to €66.56 million for the 2018 financial 
year, up from €56.33 million in the previous year.  Translated into Australian dollars, sales revenue increased $20.99 million, or 25.8%, to 
$102.40 million.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 
Company-Operated Retail Segment (continued) 

The Flagship store at BTC City, Ljubljana was redeveloped, renovated and was launched in June 2017.  The Ljubljana Flagship store provides 
an unparalleled, all-encompassing and interactive shopping experience in Slovenia and the greater Central European region.  The 
repositioning of the Harvey Norman® brand in Slovenia has had the positive impact of driving sales growth in all stores across all key product 
categories, boasting growth rates well in excess of 20%.   

The retail result in Slovenia was a profit of $6.65 million for the year ended 30 June 2018, an increase of $2.19 million, or 49.1%, from $4.46 
million profit in the previous year.   

Sales revenue for the Zagreb, Croatia store increased €1.98 million, or 10.8%, to €20.38 million for the 2018 financial year, from €18.40 million 
in the previous year.  Translated into Australian dollars, sales revenue increased 17.9%, or $4.77 million, to $31.35 million. 

The renovation of the Zagreb Flagship store is predominantly complete and is due to be relaunched by September 2018.   

Croatia had reported its first full-year profit in June 2017.  This profitable trend has continued with a profit of $0.75 million for the year ended 
30 June 2018.  We expect this trend to continue after the relaunch of the reinvigorated Zagreb Flagship store next month.   

Ireland: 

In Ireland, sales revenue from the 13 company-operated stores increased €21.81 million, or 12.8%, to €192.30 million for the 2018 financial 
year, up from €170.49 million in the 2017 year.  Comparable store sales growth were also good, increasing by €7.11 million or 4.2% during the 
year.  Translated into Australian dollars, sales revenue increased by $49.43 million, or 20.1%, to $295.84 million from $246.41 million in the 
previous year, partly due to a 6.45% appreciation in the Euro relative to the Australian dollar during the year.  Retail sales increased across all 
key product categories.   

The 61,000 sq feet Flagship store situated in the Airton Retail Park in Tallaght was launched in July 2017.  This Flagship store has reinforced, 
and significantly enhanced, the Harvey Norman® brand in Ireland and has set a new retailing benchmark in the region.  With many global 
brands having their European headquarters in London, the Tallaght Flagship store serves also as a regional showcase of global capability, 
raising the bar in terms of the latest shop-fitout, interior design concepts and experiential and value-added retail.  The success of the 
Tallaght Flagship, which is also the first freehold land purchase in the Republic of Ireland, has led to positive flow-on effects to the existing 
store base with each of the stores in Ireland growing sales during the year.   

The retail trading environment in Ireland has continued to improve with key indicators in the Irish economy demonstrating that the economy 
is performing well.  Irish consumer confidence has increased along with improved employment rates and net inward migration.  Construction 
activity has picked-up and house completions have increased, however, while the outlook is positive, there are potential headwinds in terms 
of the continuing uncertainty around Brexit.   

The retail segment result in Ireland generated a profit of $1.98 million for the 2018 financial year, an improvement of $2.12 million from a loss 
of $0.14 million in the previous year.  This result includes an adjustment of $1.03 million to realign the accounting treatment of lease 
incentives in Ireland recognised in the current year.   

Northern Ireland: 

Sales revenue from the two company operated stores in Northern Ireland contracted by £0.25 million, or -2.5%, to £10.07 million for the 2018 
financial year, from £10.33 million in the previous year.  Translated into Australian dollars, sales increased marginally by $0.13 million, or 0.7%, 
to $17.48 million mainly due to a 3.28% appreciation in the British Pound Sterling relative to the Australian dollar during the year.   

The Flagship store on the iconic Boucher Road in South Belfast has been trading for nearly 3 years and continues to report strong sales each 
period.  The impact of the stronger brand positioning following the launch of the Flagship store can be seen in the robust performance of the 
second Belfast store at Holywood, with sales growth of 15.3% relative to prior year, supported by the refurbishment and upgrade of the site 
12 months ago.   

The 2 company-operated stores in Northern Ireland incurred a trading loss of $0.57 million for the current year, a solid turnaround from the 
trading loss incurred in the previous year of $2.35 million.  This reduced trading loss incorporates an adjustment to release the remaining 
lease incentive received in respect of the previous Holywood retail store lease of $1.08 million.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 
Company-Operated Retail Segment (continued) 

Other Non-Franchised Retail 

The non-franchised retail segment consists primarily of retail and wholesale trading operations in Australia which are wholly-owned, 
controlled or jointly-controlled by the consolidated entity and does not include the operations of any Harvey Norman®, Domayne® and Joyce 
Mayne® franchisee.   

Total revenue for the other non-franchised retail segment was $159.82 million for the year ended 30 June 2018, a marginal reduction of 
$0.24 million, or 0.1%, from segment revenue of $160.06 million generated in the previous year.   

The result for the non-franchised retail segment was a loss of $11.17 million for the 2018 financial year, compared with a loss of $10.02 million 
for the previous year.  The segment loss for the current year included an impairment loss of $16.92 million to write-down the commercial 
loans made to a retail joint venture in Australia compared to a write-down of $18.41 million in the previous year.   

Other Segment 

The Other segment is primarily comprised of credit facilities provided to related and unrelated parties, other unallocated income and expense 
items and the equity-accounted joint venture investment in Coomboona Holdings Pty Limited (CHPL).   

The Other segment recorded a loss of $51.78 million for the year ended 30 June 2018 compared to a loss of $9.12 million for the year ended 
30 June 2017, a deterioration in the losses incurred by $42.66 million. 

HNM Galaxy Pty Limited, acting in its capacity as trustee of the HNM Galaxy Unit Trust (HN JV Entity), holds 49.9% of the issued shares in 
CHPL.  Eternal Sound Limited, acting in its capacity as trustee for the AAA Settlement Trust (Eternal Sound JV Entity), holds 50.1% of the 
issued shares in CHPL.  CHPL holds all of the issued shares in companies which carry on the business of dairy farm operations, land 
ownership and a pedigree breeding and genetics division in Northern Victoria (the Coomboona JV).  The 49.9% interest of the consolidated 
entity in the Coomboona JV is equity-accounted.   

The Coomboona JV commenced trading in September 2015 and the equity-accounted trading losses were $4.57 million for the year ended 
30 June 2018 compared to equity-accounted trading losses of $5.95 million for the prior year.   

In February 2018, a dispute arose between the HN JV Entity and the Eternal Sound JV Entity in relation to a number of matters, including the 
future direction of the Coomboona JV.  On 27 February 2018, the HN JV Entity demanded that the Coomboona JV repay outstanding 
indebtedness due by the Coomboona JV to the HN JV Entity in the sum of $18.51 million.  The poor trading performance of the Coomboona 
JV, the notice provided by the HN JV Entity to the Coomboona JV to demand repayment of the outstanding indebtedness due to the HN JV 
Entity of $18.51 million, in addition to the dispute between the HN JV Entity and the Eternal Sound JV Entity regarding the future direction of 
the Coomboona JV, were indicators of impairment during the December 2017 review period.  The impairment assessment performed in 
respect of the investment in the Coomboona JV as at 31 December 2017 concluded that the entire investment balance of $20.67 million was 
impaired and should be written-down.  This resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss of $20.67 million to write-down the Coomboona 
JV equity-accounted investment to nil as at 31 December 2017. 

On 23 March 2018 the directors of CHPL appointed Ferrier Hodgson as administrators of CHPL and subsidiaries of CHPL (Administrators).  On 
the same day, National Australia Bank Limited (NAB), the first-ranking creditor to CHPL, appointed McGrath Nicol as receivers and managers 
of CHPL and subsidiaries of CHPL (Receivers).  As at 9 May 2018, CHPL and subsidiaries of CHPL were indebted to NAB in an amount of 
approximately $36 million (NAB Debt).  The NAB Debt was secured by first ranking mortgages and securities granted by CHPL and 
subsidiaries of CHPL to NAB (NAB Securities).  On 9 May 2018 (Assignment Date), NAB assigned the NAB Debt and NAB Securities to Network 
Consumer Finance Pty Limited (NCF), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harvey Norman Holdings Limited, for a price of $36.06 million, with the 
consent of the Administrators. 

The total indebtedness of CHPL to its creditors NCF and the HN JV Entity, both wholly-owned subsidiaries of Harvey Norman Holdings 
Limited, as at 30 June 2018 amounted to $74.99 million as follows: 
 
 

first-ranking secured creditor (NAB): the total value of commercial loans granted to the Coomboona JV by NCF of $36.28 million; and 
second-ranking secured creditor (HN JV Entity): the total value of commercial loans granted to the Coomboona JV by the HN JV 
Entity of $38.71 million, repayable on demand. 

The recoverable amount of the indebtedness of CHPL to NCF and the HN JV Entity, totalling $74.99 million in aggregate, was assessed as at 
30 June 2018.  An impairment loss of $28.78 million was recognised in June 2018 to reduce the carrying amount of the Coomboona JV non-
trade receivables to its recoverable amount.  Each of the key assumptions in the impairment assessment is subject to judgement regarding 
the estimated shortfall in the repayment of the loans advanced by NCF and the HN JV Entity to CHPL.   

Combined, the Coomboona JV equity-accounted trading losses of $4.57 million, the impairment of the Coomboona JV investment in 
December 2017 of $20.67 million and the estimated impairment loss for the shortfall in the recoverability of funds advanced by NCF and the 
HN JV Entity of $28.78 million, totalled $54.01 million and was recognised as losses in the income statement for the 2018 financial year.

Franchising Operations Segment 

The Franchising Operations Margin (%) 

The franchising operations segment result decreased by $21.99 million, or 7.2%, to $282.54 million in the 2018 financial year from $304.53 
million in the previous year.  This was a solid result particularly as it was on the back of a strong 13.6% growth in the 2017 financial year and 
the massive 34% increase in the 2016 financial year.  The result generated by the franchising operations segment represented 53% of the 
total consolidated profit before tax result for the 2018 financial year.   

Revenue in this segment reduced by $7.64 million, or 0.8%, to $932.67 million primarily due to a decrease in franchise fee income of 1.8%, or 
$14.41 million, to $768.45 million in the 2018 financial year from $782.86 million in the previous year.  Tactical support payments to protect, 
enhance and promote the brand increased by $10.50 million, or 16.3%, to $74.98 million for the year ended 30 June 2018, up from $64.48 
million in the previous year.  Higher tactical support payments were required during the year to assist franchisees to better compete in their 
respective markets.  This increase was inclusive of $7.80 million in tactical support payments to assist a B2B franchisee with a restructure in 
Q4 of the 2018 financial year.  Excluding the restructure of the B2B franchisee, tactical support would have been $67.17 million, a minimal 
increase of $2.70 million or 4.2% from the previous year.  Other costs to operate the franchising operations segment, including interest and 
depreciation costs, have also increased during the year contributing to the reduction in the profitability of the franchising operations 
segment for the 2018 financial year.   

The franchising operations margin reduced from 5.42% in the 2017 financial year to 4.90% in the 2018 financial year, a reduction of 52 basis 
points.  If the tactical support payments relating to the B2B franchisee were excluded from the calculation, the franchising operations margin 
would have been 5.04% for the year ended 30 June 2018. 

As the below table demonstrates, this reduction was predominantly in the last 6 months of the 2018 financial year.  For the December 2017 
half, the franchising operations segment result decreased by $4.91 million, or 2.9%, from the December 2016 half.  The franchising operations 
margin was 5.57% for the December 2017 half, compared to 6.01% for the December 2016 half, a reduction of 44 basis points.  The 
franchising operations segment result reduced further in the second half of the year, with a reduction of $17.08 million, or 12.9%, in the June 
2018 half relative to the June 2017 half.  This resulted in a franchising operations margin of 4.18% for June 2018 half, compared to 4.81% for 
the June 2017 half, a reduction of 63 basis points.   

The deterioration in the second half result and margin can primarily be attributed to: 
 
 

a reduction in franchise fees by $15.83 million, or 4.4%, for the 2nd half of the year (1st half was actually higher by $1.42 million); and 
an increase in tactical support by $7.67 million, or 21.5%, for the 2nd half of the year, mainly relating to the tactical support provided to 
the B2B franchisee in Q4 (tactical support for the 1st half was up by $2.83 million).

Franchisee Sales Revenue Underpins the Franchising 
Operations Segment  

Headline Australian franchisee aggregated sales revenue increased 2.6%, or $144.28 million, to $5.76 billion for the year ended 30 June 2018 
from $5.62 billion in the prior year.  Comparable Australian franchisee aggregated sales revenue increased 2.2% to $5.72 billion for FY18.  
Sales made by franchisees in Australia do not form part of the financial results of the consolidated entity.  Retail sales in Harvey Norman®, 
Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® in Australia are made by independently owned franchisee businesses that are not consolidated with the 
consolidated entity’s results.   Australian franchisee aggregated sales revenue is reported to the market as it is a key indicator of the 
performance of the franchising operations segment. 

performance of the franchising operations segment.   

Key Property Statistics and the Impact of the Housing Market on Retail Spending 

Spending on household goods is fundamentally driven by population growth, household income, consumer confidence and activity in the 
residential property market. 

Population growth presently remains robust with the Australian resident population increasing by 400,000 in the 12 months to 30 June 2018 
(Australian Bureau of Statistics, cat 3101.0) and the Australian population reached 25 million people in August 2018.  

Looking ahead, national population growth is expected to remain solid, with the Australian resident population projected to reach 26.5 million 
by the end of FY22 (BIS Economics forecast).  Victoria and NSW will account for the majority of the increase.  With the transition from the end 
of the mining investment boom coming to an end, other states should also see a recovery in resident inflows as economic conditions 
improve. 

Over 400,000 new jobs were added between December 2016 and December 2017, the most in 12 years (Commsec Chief Economist Craig 
James, AFR, 25-28 Jan 2018).  The majority of these (just over 300,000) were full time positions, a reversal of the trend in recent years.  This 
shift has helped absorb some of the spare capacity in the labour market, with the unemployment rate falling to 5.4% at 30 June 2018 from 
5.8% in the first calendar quarter of 2017 (Australian Bureau of Statistics cat 6202.0) and underemployment rate dropping back to 8.3% at 
May 2018 from a high of 8.9% in February 2017 (Australian Bureau of Statistics cat 6202.0).  Furthermore the participation rate at 65.5% is at 
the highest level since 2011 (ANZ research paper titled ‘Quick Reaction Australia – another strong jobs report’ 14 December 2017). 

Moving forward, the volume of renovation activity is forecast to grow by 3.2% in 2019, 5.7% in 2020, and then a further 0.9% in 2021 taking 
the total value of the renovations market to $35.57 billion (Housing Industry association Renovations Roundup Dec 2017).  Although 
conditions remain somewhat challenging for households with household income rising by only 1.9% in 2017 and house prices now declining 
in the major capital cities, consumers remain optimistic about the outlook, with the ANZ-Roy Morgan confidence index recording a net 
positive outlook (as at 30 June 2018) for the next twelve months.

a consumer’s connected life to their place of abode.  

Franchisees’ audio-visual category has seen strong growth 

over the past year, with the latest designs and advancements in 

picture technology in large-screen televisions making a significant 

contribution.  With more and more consumers desiring ‘king-sized’ 

screens and undeniably sharper picture quality, the impending 

launch of the 4K Satellite broadcast is the next evolution of 

television, and is expected to deliver unprecedented resolution, 

colour depth and contrast and higher refresh rates than ever 

before.  Harvey Norman® franchisees will be heavily involved 

in the launch of the 4K broadcast in Australia and franchisees 

have cleverly positioned themselves as the premium 4K UHD TV 

destination.  Franchisees intend to showcase the 4K broadcast 

capabilities in-store to give their customers the ultimate immersive 

viewing experience.  The demand for a cinematic-quality home 

The latest innovations in smart technology have generated growth in 

the Home Appliance category, with flexible and internet-connected 

refrigeration leading the way.  The increase in demand for self-

cleaning appliances and desire for a healthier lifestyle has propelled 

their cooking range throughout the year, while franchisees continue 

to have a leading market share in fully-automatic coffee machines.  

Harvey Norman® franchisees bucked the trend in the flat laptop 

market, where franchisees led the way and demonstrated solid 

growth in the laptop category on the back of the recent push towards 

Modern PCs.  The strong demand for online gaming and the rapid 

rise of ‘E-Sports’ continues to fuel the awareness of gaming and the 

growth in sales of gaming PCs, accessories and content throughout 

2018.  The Smartphone category continued to grow strongly and 

there was significant growth in portable audio with advances in 

Bluetooth speakers and headphones.  

Franchisees continue to maintain solid partnerships with leading 

global designer brands and expect this growth to continue 

throughout the 2019 financial year.  As their consumers continue to 

live a more mobile and active life, franchisees strive to ensure that 

their product offering meets this insatiable demand.  The need to be 

‘thinner, lighter, faster’ continues with customers’ upgrading to keep 

up with the latest trends.

A BETTER CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE

O2O STRATEGY
The Online-to-Offline (O2O) Strategy of Harvey Norman®, Domayne® 
and Joyce Mayne® franchisees continues to develop and enhance 
the service offering to their customers.  The O2O Strategy is well 
positioned to mitigate any potential disruptions and has been further 
enhanced over the 2018 financial year.  Franchisees are committed 
to delivering a seamless experience to their customers with the 
introduction, upgrade or enhancement of the following initiatives: 
•   LivePerson – LivePerson is a digital service platform that gives 

customers the ability to communicate with Harvey Norman® under 
whichever channel they desire, whether that be email, SMS, Apple 
Business Chat, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger or Livechat.  This 
platform also facilitates after hours and augmented customer 
support during peak trading periods to respond to commonly asked 
questions and queries using AI conversational bots.  LivePerson 
brings together the AI and automations necessary to provide a great 
customer experience across multiple touch points at scale, along 
with services such as order status updates and reservation changes.  
These services allow customers of Harvey Norman® franchisees to 
message in the same “time-shifted” way they message friends and 
family, moving in and out of conversations to multi-task or go on 
about their day.  Push notifications and history allow the consumer to 
continue on their own time. 

•  Near Real-Time Inventory – Providing customers with accurate and 
up-to-date stock information confirming their local franchisee has 
the product they are interested in purchasing.

•  Quick Reserve – Allowing customers to quickly reserve a product 
and know that product will be available when they arrive at their 
franchised complex. 

•  2-Hour Click and Collect – At the heart of the Harvey Norman O2O 

strategy, Click & Collect is a convenient and popular way to shop with 
over 80% of customer’s orders notified in under 2 hours.

•  Improved Expert Reviews – Franchisees have access to reports 
that provide unbiased editorial content and ratings on products, 
specifications, and user reviews to aid the customer in their selection 
process.  

•  Improved Site Search – The Harvey Norman® online self-learning 
search algorithm provides customers with the most relevant and 
suitable product to assist the search process. 

•  Furniture Collections – Enhancing the Harvey Norman® online 
Furniture pages to include collections to provide customers an 
enhanced online experience. 

Supporting the O2O strategy, several Customer Service initiatives were 
also introduced, upgraded or enhanced during the 2018 financial year 
including the following:
•  Harvey Norman® Voice continues to grow and resonates strongly 

with customers. This digital platform was created to provide 
enhanced one-on-one engagement with a cross-section of Harvey 
Norman® customers to obtain feedback prior to changing processes 
or investing in system enhancements. Listening to customers is 
central to the Customer First mindset.  

•  Mobile First – As one of the first retailers in Australia to launch PWA 

(Progressive Web App) Harvey Norman® franchisees are utilising 
this cutting-edge technology to optimise the customer experience 
on mobile to engage and inspire customers and drive franchisee 
sales growth. 

•  Store Location Management System - Provides a single source 
of truth across all information services for franchised complexes 
including location information, contact details, trading hours, and 
local events, allowing customers to easily obtain information about 
their nearest Harvey Norman® franchised complex.

DELIVERY SERVICES AND FULFILMENT 
OPTIONS OF FRANCHISEES

The delivery services and fulfilment options of franchisees are 
constantly evolving to provide a better and more seamless customer 
experience, right from simply booking a delivery at the time of 
purchase, to the installation of their product and the removal of any 
packaging – and everything in between.  Taking advantage of the 
latest innovations in smart technology, franchisees are focused on the 
improvement of Last Mile delivery, specifically to provide products to 
customers, where, how and when they want the product. 

The delivery service offering has been enhanced over the 2018 
financial year to offer a seamless experience to the customer with the 
introduction, upgrade and enhancement of the following initiatives: 
•  Same Day and Scheduled Delivery – Enabling customers to 

order same day or scheduled delivery from franchised complexes 
located within all metropolitan areas as part of the Harvey 
Norman® O2O strategy.

•  Standard Delivery Offering – Enabling customers to choose the 

delivery service that best suits their needs. Whether customers prefer 
a quick ‘Store to Door’ drop-off, a ‘Delivery Plus’ for basic connection 
or a full ‘Premium Delivery’ service.

•  Bulky Good Deliveries – Franchisees are enhancing the way they 

communicate after purchase: creating digital delivery booking 
systems with timely notifications and real-time tracking of deliveries 
to the customer’s door. It’s all about getting the delivery experience 
right for each customer and giving them control over their delivery.

•  Home Installation – The development of an online platform to 

enhance the customer experience by recommending and connecting 
franchise customers with quality installation companies.

•  Branded Trucks – Customers will not only enjoy transparency of 
the delivery process but will also experience an enhanced service 
offering with clean branded trucks and uniformed drivers. 

•  Pick Up from Warehouse – Customers can choose to pick up 

bulky goods from the warehouse immediately after the purchase. 
Customer pick-up areas at the warehouse are undergoing a major 
refit to accommodate the increase in customer demand. Courier and 
bike parking bays have been allocated to facilitate quicker pickup and 
delivery of goods to customers.

Review of the Property Segment 

Composition of the Property Portfolio 

The robust property portfolio was valued at $2.86 billion as of 30 June 2018 and still continues to be the consolidated entity’s driving point of 
difference and competitive advantage in the Australian market.  With emerging or restructured competitors – both big or small, online or 
physical – the resilient investment property portfolio keeps us a step-ahead and ready to respond to the evolving and dynamic needs of 
consumers.   The physical complexes provide the flexible, large footprint needed to showcase the best on offer from global brands and 
demonstrate the maximum capabilities of those products to integrate and connect our busy day-to-day lives. 

As at 30 June 2018, total property assets amounted to over 62% of the consolidated entity’s total asset base of $4.58 billion.  Growth in the 
property portfolio was mainly due to the continued solid market conditions in the large-format retail sector delivering capital appreciation 
during the year, the concerted focus on completing the Flagship strategy of the consolidated entity and the acquisition and refurbishment of 
other investment properties in Australia.  The following tables represent the composition of property segment assets at each balance date 
and the number of owned and leased retail use properties as at 30 June 2018.

Net Property Revaluation Adjustments 

The investment property portfolio in Australia and properties held in joint venture entities are subject to a semi-annual review to fair market 
value.  At each reporting period, one-sixth of the investment property portfolio is independently valued with the remaining five-sixths 
reviewed for fair value by Directors.  The entire portfolio is independently valued every three years. 

During the year ended 30 June 2018, thirty-seven (37) sites within the investment property portfolio in Australia were independently valued, 
representing 28.5% of the total number of sites and 22.6% of the fair value of the investment property portfolio in Australia.  The balance of 
the portfolio was reviewed for comparability resulting in the preparation of internal valuations for twenty-one (21) additional sites.  The 
valuation for the current year resulted in a net increase of $51.65 million relating to investment properties in Australia compared to a net 
increase of $107.38 million in the previous year.  The prior year figure had included the impact of rezoning potential to medium-density 
residential for a property in NSW.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 

Review of the Financial Position of the Consolidated Entity 

The consolidated entity has tangible property assets of $2.86 billion, representing 63% of the total asset base of $4.58 billion.   

Total assets increased by 9.3%, or $387.90 million, to $4.58 billion as at 30 June 2018, from $4.19 billion in the previous year.  The value of 
the investment property portfolio increased by $187.64 million, or 8.4%, to $2.43 billion as at 30 June 2018 primarily due to the net property 
revaluation increment of $51.65 million during the current year and the acquisition of other investment property assets during the current 
year.  

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $90.32 million relative to the previous year.  Property plant and equipment assets increased by 
$35.23 million, or 5.6%, to $660.34 million due to the development of the Flagship store at Tallaght, Dublin, capital appreciation in the 
freehold properties located offshore and the refurbishment and upgrades of the company-operated Flagship stores and Flagship complex 
during the year to finalise the consolidated entity’s Flagship strategy.    

Total liabilities increased by $262.87 million, or 19.1%, to $1.64 billion as at 30 June 2018 from $1.38 billion in the prior year mainly due to 
higher utilisation of the Syndicated Facility and other external borrowings to fund development and expansion during the year.   

The consolidated entity consistently reports a solid net asset base, with robust growth of 4.4% during the year, or an increase of $125.03 
million, to $2.94 billion as at 30 June 2018 from $2.81 billion as at 30 June 2017.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 

Net Debt to Equity Ratio 

The overall debt levels of the consolidated entity remain within an acceptable range, with a low net debt to equity ratio of 25.50% as at 30 
June 2018 compared to a ratio of 22.59% as at 30 June 2017.  Net debt comprises total interest-bearing loans and borrowings, net of cash 
and cash equivalents.   

Solid Cash Flows and Operating Cash Conversion Ratio 

Pleasingly, cash and cash equivalents increased by $90.32 million relative to prior year, with substantial growth in net cash flows from 
operating activities by $29.03 million, or 6.8%, to $454.17 million for the year ended 30 June 2018.  This was primarily achieved by an 
increase in net receipts from franchisees by $64.58 million, or 7.3%, to $947.06 million during the year.  Net receipts from franchisees are 
affected by the movement in the aggregate amount of financial accommodation provided to franchisees for the current year relative to the 
movement in the prior year.  During the 2018 financial year the movement in the aggregate amount of financial accommodation provided to 
franchisees was lower than the movement in the aggregate amount of financial accommodation provided in the prior year.  This reduction 
was in line with a reduction in the inventory reserves held by franchisees during the 2018 financial year relative to the 2017 financial year.  

There was a reduction in the net cash financing outflows by $219.02 million during the 2018 year primarily due to the proceeds received from 
increased borrowings of the Syndicated Facility to fund the acquisition and refurbishment of investment properties and property, plant and 
equipment assets.   This was offset by higher investing cash flows by $104.72 million to fund expansion, growth and refurbishments and 
upgrades of existing capital assets.   

The consolidated entity’s operating cash conversion ratio, calculated as operating cash flows before net interest and tax paid as a proportion 
of EBITDIA (excluding property revaluations), is strong with an operating cash conversion rate of 97.6% for the 2018 financial year, an 
increase of 720 basis points on the cash conversion rate of 90.4% for the 2017 financial year.   

Capital Management Policy 

create long-term sustainable value for shareholders;  

The objective of the consolidated entity’s capital management policy is to:  
 
  maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits to other stakeholders;  
 
 

source the lowest cost of available capital; and  
prevent the adverse outcomes that can result from short-term decision making. 

The Capital Management Policy stipulates a net debt-to-equity target for the consolidated entity of less than 50%. 

The capital structure of the consolidated entity consists of:  
 
 
 

debt, which includes Interest-Bearing Loans and Borrowings disclosed in Notes 18 and 21 of this report;  
Cash and cash equivalents disclosed in Note 28(a); and  
Equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising ordinary shares, reserves and retained profits as disclosed in Notes 24, 
25 and 26 respectively. 

The consolidated entity’s borrowings consist primarily of bank debt provided by a syndicate of ten banks (including each of the “Big 4” 
Australian Banks).  Concentration risk is minimised by staggering facility renewals and utilising a range of maturities of up to 3 years.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) 

Outlook 

The Flagships that have been launched to date have outperformed expectations.  In the first half of the 2019 financial year, we complete the 
launch of 1 Flagship store in each of the 8 countries in which we, or our franchisees, operate.  The Wairau Park Flagship store in New Zealand 
was launched on 30 June 2018 and is already exceeding expectations.  We were disappointed we couldn’t launch our Auburn Flagship 
complex in Australia and our Zagreb Flagship store in Croatia for the start of the 2019 financial year.  These will be completed and launched 
by the end of September 2018 and, looking at the results of our other Flagship stores, we are confident they will deliver similar results.  Each 
of the Flagship stores is designed to provide an unrivalled customer experience in terms of store design, customer service and premium 
product offering. 

The consolidated entity is looking to capitalise on the solid performance of the overseas Harvey Norman® branded company-operated stores 
and is actively exploring new sites with an expectation to open up to 18 company-operated stores within the next two years.  Particular 
emphasis has been placed on South East Asia with the expectation of opening 9 new stores in Malaysia over the next two years.  In Australia, 
1 Joyce Mayne® franchised complex in the Northern Territory will open in the 2019 financial year. 

The consolidated entity will continue to invest in our people, our brands and in the development and enhancement of the tools provided to 
our franchisees to enable them to seamlessly service their customers.   

Summary of Key Business Risks 

The Board is optimistic about the consolidated entity’s future trading performance but acknowledges that there are several factors that may 
pose a risk to the achievement of the business strategies and future financial performance as outlined above. 

Every business faces risks with the potential to impair its ability to execute its strategy or achieve its financial objectives.  There are a number 
of key risks, both specific to the Harvey Norman® integrated retail, franchise, property and digital system and external risks, for example the 
macroeconomic environment, over which the consolidated entity has no control.  The consolidated entity acknowledges the existence of 
these risks, and in the first instance seeks to identify and understand individual risks, and then – to the extent possible – manage and/or 
minimise risks. 

Deterioration in macroeconomic conditions resulting in declining consumer sentiment: 
The consolidated entity has a significant exposure to the economy of the countries in which it operates.  There are a number of general 
economic conditions, including interest and exchange rate movements, overall levels of demand, housing market dynamics, wage growth, 
employment, economic and political instability and government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies, that can impact the level of 
consumer confidence and discretionary retail spending, thereby affecting revenue from sales to customers and franchise fees.  The 
consolidated entity seeks to reduce its exposure to these risks by closely monitoring both internal and external sources of information that 
provide insights into any changes in demand within the economies in which it operates. 

Competition resulting in a loss of market share for franchisees in Australia and company-
operated stores in overseas markets: 
The integrated retail, franchise, property and digital system, and diverse category mix assists in maintaining the consolidated entity’s 
competitive position.  Market consolidation and/or acquisition may result in further competition and changes to market share. Franchisees in 
Australia and company-operated stores in 7 overseas regions operate across a number of categories in the strongly performing Home and 
Lifestyle market.  Diversity mitigates the risk from existing and potential single-category competitors.   

Emergence of competitors in new channels: 
The Harvey Norman® Omni Channel Strategy provides customers of franchisees with a diverse, consistent and distinctive Harvey Norman® 
customer experience through a range of channels.  The Harvey Norman® Omni Channel Strategy integrates retail, online, mobile, and social 
channels.  The online operations of franchisees in Australia and the company-operated online operations overseas continue to grow.  The 
digital platform provides new opportunities for growth and new ways to embrace and engage with customers.  Data analytics are an 
important element of the Harvey Norman® Omni Channel Strategy, and are utilised to improve customer experience. 

The Harvey Norman® Omni Channel Strategy sets the Harvey Norman® brand apart from other online and digital competitors as the digital, 
physical complex and distribution channels are fully integrated, providing customers of franchisees with a multitude of engagement options 
to meet their needs.  The Harvey Norman® Omni Channel Strategy, supported by the retail property portfolio of the consolidated entity, 
makes the Harvey Norman® brand a strong competitor in the market. 

Economic downturn in the property sector leading to softening property asset values, falling 
market rentals and reduction of future capital returns on property assets: 
With a property portfolio of $2.86 billion, the consolidated entity is exposed to potential reductions in commercial property values.  The 
consolidated entity has a selective and prudent acquisition and development strategy and maintains high-quality complexes and a solid, 
dynamic, complementary tenancy mix in order to maximise the profitability of the property segment.

Summary of Key Business Risks (continued) 

Counterparty risks of service providers: 
This risk relates to the inability of service providers to meet their obligations, including compliance obligations.  The consolidated entity 
closely monitors and evaluates the performance of external service providers to mitigate counterparty risk. 

Counterparty risk associated with the mining camp accommodation joint ventures: 
Commodity prices are inherently volatile.  The provision of services to the mining industry is inherently risky.  The consolidated entity has 
continued its joint ventures with counterparties to provide mining camp accommodation services.  The risk in respect of mining camp 
accommodation joint ventures includes the ability of counterparties to meet financial and other obligations under mining camp 
accommodation joint venture agreements.   

The consolidated entity closely monitors and evaluates the performance of counterparties of the mining camp accommodation joint 
ventures by monitoring compliance with joint venture agreements; adopting a prudent and conservative approach to the review of mining 
camp accommodation cash flows, including future cash flow projections; and ensuring that an adequate level of security is maintained for 
any funds advanced to mining camp accommodation joint ventures.  

Counterparty risk associated with the KEH Partnership retail joint venture: 
The consolidated entity is a party to a joint venture with counterparties to provide online and retail services.  The risk in respect of this retail 
joint venture includes the ability of counterparties to meet financial and other obligations under the retail joint venture agreement.   

The consolidated entity closely monitors and evaluates the performance of counterparties of the retail joint venture by monitoring 
compliance with the joint venture agreement; adopting a prudent and conservative approach to the review of online and retail cash flows, 
including future cash flow projections; and ensuring that an adequate level of security is maintained for any funds advanced to the retail 
joint venture.   

Compliance by franchisees with franchise agreements: 
The risk relates to franchisees acting in breach of the terms and conditions of their respective franchise agreements.  The consequences of 
non-compliance may include damage to the brand, fines or other sanctions from regulators, and/or a reduction in franchise fees received 
from franchisees. 

The franchisor continually monitors and evaluates the financial and operating performance of each franchisee to actively assess compliance 
with executed franchise agreements.  Instances of non-compliance are promptly addressed to protect the Harvey Norman® brand and/or 
intellectual property of the franchisor. 

Information Technology (“IT”) security and data security breaches: 
This risk relates to the potential failure in IT security measures resulting in the loss, destruction or theft of customer, supplier, financial or 
other commercially-sensitive information including intellectual property.  This has the potential to adversely affect our operating results 
which would lead to lawsuits, damage the reputation of the Harvey Norman® brand, and/or create other liabilities for the consolidated entity. 

There are a number of key controls either planned or already in place, including an ongoing program of investment in cyber security 
software; the implementation, maintenance and supervision of operational policies and contracts intended to preserve the confidentiality 
and integrity of IT systems; regular independent audit and review of IT security; and the ongoing review, practise and updating of a response 
plan relating to IT systems and incidents.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) 

Letter from the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee 

Dear Shareholders 

The consolidated entity has delivered a solid result for the 2018 financial year achieving an underlying profit before tax of $532.54 million, 
representing a marginal reduction of 0.96%, from the unprecedented, record-breaking underlying result of the 2017 financial year of $537.70 
million.  The reported net profit before tax for the 2018 financial year of $530.17 million was at 83% of the previous year’s record net profit of 
$639.81 million.    

The consolidated entity delivered a strong increase of 4.4% in the net asset base for shareholders to $2.94 billion as at 30 June 2018.  The 
profit before tax (PBT) return on net assets was 18.05% for the 2018 financial year.  

Each of the executive directors have a significant shareholding in the Company, which provides alignment of the executive management 
with that of shareholders.  The directors and other members of the key management personnel team are committed to growing the business 
and creating long-term sustainable value for all stakeholders of the consolidated entity. 

Remuneration Outcomes 
The achievements of the year are reflected in the remuneration outcomes.   
 

Executive directors achieved 81.26% of their 2018 Short Term Incentive (“STI”) targets for performance against a balanced scorecard 
of measures.   
Return on Net Assets (“RONA”) of 17.15% for the year resulted in a probable vesting of 40% for the long-term incentives granted in 
December 2017, under the Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan.   
Tranche 2 of the 2016 LTI Plan, granted in November 2016 was reassessed for probable vesting to 60%, down from 80% last year.   
Tranche 1 of the 2016 LTI Plan, granted in November 2015 was reassessed for probable vesting, remaining unchanged at 60%.   
The 2015 LTI Plan PCI, assessed in the 2017 financial year to be $3,455,800, was paid to Executive Directors on 4 July 2018. 
The total at risk compensation expense was $782,864 or 17.3% less than the expense in the 2017 financial year. 
The total “take-home” pay was $557,648 or 4.7% more than the 2017 financial year, due to the payout of incentives from previous 
financial periods.

Changes to Remuneration 

The Framework 
The Board regularly reviews the executive remuneration structure to ensure it continues to drive shareholder value and to attract and retain 
the talent needed to achieve its strategic objectives.  

The framework for the executive remuneration structure remained essentially the same as was in place for the 2017 financial year comprised 
as follows: 
 
 

Benchmarked fixed remuneration;  
At risk short term incentives in the form of performance cash incentives, subject to a balanced scorecard of measures relevant to the 
given financial year; 
At risk long term incentives in the form of performance rights as issued under the terms of the 2016 LTI Plan;   
The use of RONA as the measure of financial performance captures the effect of all impairments and write-downs, apart from 
property revaluation increments and decrements; and 
The evaluation of the performance of the executive director cohort as a team.   

 
 

 

In respect of the STI, entry at the base level of financial achievement was required before the non-financial performance conditions became 
activated.  This framework was introduced in 2016 to align the executive remuneration structure to best practice with the focus on long-term 
sustainable returns.   

2018 STI Plan 
The Board adopted an STI Plan for Executive Directors relevant to the desired outcomes of the 2018 financial year.  The STI Plan is subject to 
both financial conditions (calculated exclusively in respect of RONA) as to a 50% weighting and non-financial conditions as to 50% weighting, 
whereby minimum financial performance conditions (i.e. entry-level achievement) must be achieved prior to the activation of the non-
financial performance conditions.   

With respect to the 2018 STI Plan, the minimum financial performance conditions (entry-level to the 2018 STI Plan) was set at 15% of RONA 
and the maximum achievement level set at 18% of RONA.  Graduated achievement points were set from 15% RONA to 18% RONA. 

The Board is confident that the remuneration policies continue to support the financial and strategic goals of the consolidated entity.  On 
behalf of the Board, I invite you to review the full report and thank you for your continued interest.   

Yours sincerely

2.  Remuneration Principles and Strategy 

The executive remuneration strategy of the consolidated entity in 2018 is designed to attract, motivate and retain high performing 
individuals and align the interests of executives with shareholders.   

The relevant factors in determining the suitability of a board member, including the executive directors, are integrity, business savvy, an 
owner-oriented attitude and a deep genuine interest in the business of the consolidated entity.   

In applying these principles to the consolidated entity: 
a)  Business savvy requires a deep understanding of one or more of the sectors of retail, property, franchising and digital. 
b) 

Integrity requires a level of fundamental honesty, candour and frankness in dealing with colleagues, regulators and other third parties. 
Integrity necessarily requires a director to bring an open mind and independent judgment to the discussion of any matter of concern to 
the Board. 

c)  An owner orientation or perspective of an owner requires the individual to either have: 

i. 

ii. 

"skin in the game" by holding, controlling or benefitting from a significant parcel of shares where the financial interests of 
the director are aligned with the long term beneficial interest of shareholders; or 

a perspective of advising owners of businesses and understanding that wealth generation is derived from the building of 
business interests that create long term sustainable value. 

Directors with an owner orientation retain an open mind to consider diverse views but are not strictly beholden to the whims of 
fashionable thinking and are able to form their own views as to what constitutes best practice in corporate governance. 

d) 

Interest in and time to do the job means: 

i. 
ii. 

the person has an executive role, meaning that the person's career is based on job performance at the company; or 

the individual has a limited number of outside interests (i.e. the person is not a professional non-executive director),  

In both cases, the individual has an independence of mind and outlook. 

Applying these criteria to the current Board, the Board is satisfied that each director, including the executive directors, bring to the Board the 
necessary skills and attributes specified. 

The following table illustrates how the remuneration strategy of the consolidated entity in 2018 aligns with the strategic direction and links 
remuneration outcomes to performance.

3.  Remuneration Governance  

Remuneration Committee 

The remuneration committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board on the remuneration arrangements for executive 
directors and non-executive directors (“NEDs”). 

The remuneration committee assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of NEDs and executives on a periodic 
basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions, with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the 
retention of a high performing director and executive team.  In determining the level and composition of executive remuneration, the 
remuneration committee has not engaged external consultants to provide independent advice or make any remuneration recommendation 
in respect of the 2018 financial year.   

The remuneration committee comprises three NEDs, two of whom are independent NEDs.  Further information on the committee’s role, 
responsibilities and membership is located on the website: www.harveynormanholdings.com.au.

Remuneration Approval Process 

The Board approves the remuneration arrangements of the chief executive officer (“CEO”) and executives and all awards made under the 
long-term incentive plans of the Company, following recommendations from, and certain determinations by, the remuneration committee. 
The Board sets the aggregate remuneration of NEDs, subject to shareholder approval. 

The remuneration committee approves, having regard to the recommendations made by the CEO, the level of the short term incentive (“STI”) 
pool, in the form of performance cash incentive (“PCI”), for executive directors. 

No director participated in deliberations about, or decisions, in respect of the remuneration of that director. 

No executive director was present at any meeting of directors which considered any long term incentive plan or short term incentive plan of 
the Company, and no executive director voted on those matters. 

4.  Remuneration Mix - Target 

For the 2018 financial year, the executive remuneration framework comprised fixed remuneration, STI and LTI as outlined below.   

The consolidated entity aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration appropriate to their position and responsibilities, 
while being market competitive.   

The policy of the consolidated entity is to position fixed remuneration around the median of comparator groups.  Target total remuneration is 
intended to provide the opportunity to earn top quartile rewards for outstanding performance.   

During the 2018 financial year, remuneration benchmarking was undertaken with reference to both sector peers and comparator groups 
comprising companies of a similar financial size.   

Remuneration levels are considered annually through a remuneration review which considers market data and the performance of the 
consolidated entity and individual.   

The following summarises the target remuneration mix of the executives.

5.  Details of Short-Term and Long-Term Incentive Plans 

The extent to which the financial condition and non-financial conditions are satisfied will be documented in a Performance Report and an 
Internal Audit Report, for consideration by the Remuneration Committee in accordance with the terms and conditions of the short-term and 
long-term incentive plans.  The Performance Report is a report prepared for, and on behalf of, the CEO addressing whether each weighted 
non-financial condition has been satisfied or, where relevant, the extent (expressed as a percentage) to which each weighted non-financial 
condition has been satisfied.   The Internal Audit Report is a report prepared by the Chief Internal Auditor of the Company, which is an 
objective appraisal of the Performance Report and documents the findings of the audit of the Performance Report.  

2018 STI Plan  

The consolidated entity operates an annual STI program available to executive directors and awards a performance cash incentive (PCI) 
subject to the achievement of clearly defined measures, targets, initiatives and conditions.

How is the STI delivered? 

  STI awards, in the form of a cash bonus or performance cash incentive (“PCI”), have been made 

When is the STI paid? 

What is the 2018 STI opportunity? 

annually to executive directors in order to align remuneration with the achievement of a number of 
performance measures, targets and initiatives covering both financial and non-financial, corporate and 
individual measures of performance. 

  The payment of the 2018 STI Plan PCI to an executive under the 2018 STI Plan is to be made on 28 
September 2018, or as soon as reasonably practicable after that date, subject to the satisfaction of 
2018 STI Plan Performance Conditions and 2018 STI Plan Service Conditions. 

  Executive directors, excluding the Executive Chairman, have a target STI opportunity of between 38% 
to 64% of fixed remuneration.  The target STI opportunity is set at a level so as to provide sufficient 
incentive to executive directors to achieve the operational targets and such that the cost to the 
consolidated entity is reasonable in the circumstances.  

For the year ended 30 June 2018, the aggregate maximum amount of 2018 STI Plan PCI, potentially 
payable, was $2,800,000 as follows: 
(i) 
(ii) 
(iii) 
(iv) 
(v) 

in respect of Gerald Harvey, nil; 
in respect of Kay Lesley Page, $800,000; 
in respect of John Evyn Slack-Smith, $700,000; 
in respect of David Matthew Ackery, $700,000; and 
in respect of Chris Mentis, $600,000. 

What are the STI performance conditions for FY2018? 

  Actual STI payments awarded to each executive depend on the extent to which specific measures, 

targets, initiatives and conditions for the 2018 financial year (“STI Targets”) are met.  STI Targets cover 
financial and non-financial measures of performance.   

The primary weighting of the 2018 STI Plan Performance Conditions are as follows: 

(a) 
(b) 

as to 50% - the Financial Condition; and 
as to 50% - the Non-Financial Conditions 

  (a)    50% Financial Condition 

(b)     50% Non-Financial Conditions 

  RONA [Aggregate APBT  Aggregate Net Assets] 
as defined in Section 2 above was selected as 
the STI performance measure as it: 
  drives profitable use of assets and provides an 
alignment between comparative shareholder 
return and reward for executive directors; and  

  minimises the effects of market cycles 

The Non-Financial Conditions are assessed in 
respect of the year ended 30 June 2018 and 
include the following non-financial measures in: 
  Customer experience (12.50%); 
 
Improve productivity (5%); 
  Flagship Strategy (20%); and 
  Franchisee learning, development and growth 

(12.50%). 

The Financial Condition is calculated in respect 
of the year ended 30 June 2018 and will be 
achieved as follows: 
  Entry point at 15% RONA 
  Maximum achievement level at 18% RONA 
  Graduated achievement points from 15% 

RONA to 18% RONA as follows: 
(i) 
 50% satisfied at 15.0% RONA 
(ii) 
60% satisfied at 15.5% RONA 
(iii) 
70% satisfied at 16.0% RONA 
(iv)  80% satisfied at 16.5% RONA 
(v) 
85% satisfied at 17.0% RONA 
(vi) 
90% satisfied at 17.5% RONA 
(vii) 
100% satisfied at 18.0% RONA 

How is performance assessed? 

  On an annual basis, after consideration of reports and performance against STI Targets, the 

remuneration committee makes a final determination of the amount of STI to be paid to the CEO and 
other executive directors.   

The extent to which the Financial Condition is satisfied will be documented in the Performance Report 
and an Internal Audit Report, for consideration by the Remuneration Committee in accordance with the 
terms and conditions of the 2018 STI Plan.   

The Remuneration Committee (acting on behalf of the Company) may at any time, in its absolute 
discretion, decrease the amount of the PCI which is, or may become, payable to an executive under 
the 2018 STI Plan by serving a written notice to the relevant executive at any time before the payment 
date. 

Details of the 2018 STI Targets and levels of achievement in the 2018 financial year are set out in pages 
40 and 41 of this report. 

What happens if an executive leaves? 

  For "Bad Leavers" (defined by the Company as resignation or termination for cause), any STI is 

forfeited, unless otherwise determined by the Board.  For any other reason, the Board has discretion to 
award STI on a pro-rated basis taking into account time and the current level of performance against 
performance hurdles.

Tranche 3 FY2018 of the 2016 LTI Plan 

  LTI grants are made annually to executive directors in order to align remuneration with the creation of 

sustainable shareholder value over the long-term.  

Who participates? 

  Executive directors which have an impact on the performance of the consolidated entity against the 

relevant long-term performance measures.   

How is the LTI delivered? 

What is the LTI opportunity? 

  Shareholders at the AGM held on 24 November 2015 approved the terms and conditions of the 2016 LTI 
Plan that permitted the grant of performance rights to executive directors, being a right to acquire one 
ordinary share in the Company at nil exercise price, in three separate tranches in the 2016, 2017 and 
2018 financial years.  The granting of performance rights under the 2016 LTI Plan replaced the previous 
LTI Plan (that was in place up to the 2015 financial year) that had previously delivered long-term 
incentives as a performance cash incentive (PCI). 

  A performance right is the right to acquire one ordinary share in the Company at nil exercise price.  No 
amount is payable in respect of the grant of a performance right.  If exercised, each performance right 
will be converted into one ordinary share in the Company. 

Executive directors have a target LTI opportunity of between 17% to 28% of fixed remuneration.   

A total of 400,000 performance rights under Tranche 3 FY2018 of the 2016 LTI Plan were granted to 
executive directors on 1 December 2017.    

The performance rights were independently valued by Mercer Consulting (Australia) Pty Limited at 
grant date with a fair value of $3.34 per entitlement share granted under Tranche 3 on 1 December 
2017, based on a share price of $4.02.  The fair value was derived from a discounted cash flow 
technique where the value of the performance right is the face value of the share at grant date less the 
present value of the dividends expected to be paid on the share but not received by the holder during 
the vesting period.  Subject to the satisfaction of the financial performance condition (calculated 
exclusively based on RONA) and service conditions of the 2016 LTI Plan, the total fair value of Tranche 
3 performance rights amounted to $1,336,000 in aggregate.

Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan? 

38 

The proposed allocation of performance rights will be subject to service conditions and financial 
performance conditions.  The Board (after consideration of the recommendations of the Remuneration 
Committee), may, in its discretion, impose additional non-financial performance conditions which must 
be satisfied as a condition of exercise of any performance rights by the Grantee.   

  100% Financial Condition 

(viii)   

  With the exception of the service condition, the Board has resolved that the conditions in respect of the 
achievement of Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan will be all financial, based exclusively on RONA, where 
Tranche 3 RONA means the fraction:   

Tranche 3 Aggregate APBT  Tranche 3 Aggregate Net Assets, expressed as a percentage.   Where: 
  Tranche 3 Financial Years means the financial years ending 30 June 2018, 2019 and 2020; 
  Tranche 3 Aggregate APBT means the aggregate amounts of the annual net profit before income 
tax of the consolidated entity for each of the Tranche 3 Financial Years, but excluding property 
revaluation increments or decrements; 

  Tranche 3 Aggregate Net Assets means the amounts of the net assets of the consolidated entity, 
excluding non-controlling interests, as at each of 30 June 2017, 2018 and 2019 as described in the 
annual report of the consolidated entity in respect of each of the Tranche 3 Financial Years.  

  Full vesting of the Tranche 3 performance rights is conditional upon achievement, of Tranche 3 RONA 

of at least 20%, with a lesser vesting as set out in the table below:

Tranche 3 FY2018 of the 2016 LTI Plan 
(continued) 

What are the service conditions of Tranche 3 of the 
2016 LTI Plan? 

  The service condition in respect of a Grantee in respect of performance rights of that Grantee under a 

Tranche will be deemed satisfied if at the time of exercise of the performance rights: 

How will the 2016 LTI Plan be administered? 

(a) 

(b) 
(c) 

the Grantee has not resigned or provided notice of resignation of employment from the 
Company, except in order to retire from the workforce; 
the Company has not terminated the employment of the Grantee for cause; and 
the Board has not determined that the performance rights should lapse as a result of any 
fraud, gross misconduct or conduct of the Grantee which brings the Company into 
disrepute. 

  The LTI Plan will be administered by the Board.  The Board has the right (after consideration of any 
recommendations of the Remuneration Committee), and subject to the Listing Rules and applicable 
legal requirements, to: 
  make all determinations required under the LTI Plan; and 
  waive or modify the application of all or any service conditions, non-financial terms and conditions 

of the LTI Plan and performance rights granted under the LTI Plan as the Board considers 
appropriate.  

How is performance assessed? 

  Level of satisfaction of LTI Plan conditions is monitored by the Remuneration Committee, with 

assistance from internal audit, each year, with the vesting outcomes ultimately determined at the end 
of the three year performance period.   

The LTI award for each of the financial years will be measured over a three year period, with Tranche 3 
of the 2016 LTI Plan measured over the period for financial years ending 30 June 2018, 30 June 2019 
and 30 June 2020. 

When does the LTI vest? 

  Performance rights granted under Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan will vest on 31 December 2020, 

subject to meeting the financial performance conditions in FY2018, FY2019 and FY2020 and service 
conditions, and will be capable of exercise between 1 January 2021 and 30 June 2023.  

How are potential LTI awards treated on termination? 

How are potential LTI awards treated if a change of 
control occurs? 

In general, where a participant resigns or is terminated for cause before a performance right vests, all 
unvested performance rights will lapse.  The Board (after consideration of the recommendations of the 
Remuneration Committee of the Board), has discretion to determine the treatment of any unvested 
performance rights where a participant ceases employment in “good leaver” circumstances (such as 
by reason of death, disability or otherwise in circumstances approved by the Board). 

In the event of fraud, dishonesty or breach of obligations, the Board may make a determination, 
including lapsing an award of performance rights, to ensure no unfair benefit is obtained by a 
participant.   

In the event of a takeover, scheme of arrangement or other transaction which may result in a person 
becoming entitled to exercise control over the Company, the Board has a discretion to determine 
whether any unvested performance rights should vest, lapse or become subject to different 
performance conditions, or whether any resulting shares that are subject to a restriction period, should 
become unrestricted. 

Are executives eligible for dividends? 

  Performance rights will not carry any voting or dividend rights.  Performance rights are non-

transferable except in limited circumstances or with the consent of the Board.  If exercised, each 
performance right will be converted into one ordinary share in the Company.  Executives will then be 
entitled to dividends on those ordinary shares after conversion.   

6.  Performance and Executive Remuneration Outcomes in 
FY18 

6A. Actual Remuneration Earned by Key Management Personnel (KMP) in FY18 

The compensation expensed in respect of KMP in FY18 is set out in Table 1 (for Directors) and Table 2 (for Executives) on pages 48 and 49 of 
this report.  This provides shareholders with a view of the remuneration earned by KMP for performance in the 2018 financial year and the 
value of any LTIs expensed during the financial year.   

The ‘take-home pay’ for KMP Directors of the Board of the Company, representing the benefits paid to each Director during the year ended 
30 June 2018, or as soon as practicable after that date, is set out in Section 12 of the Remuneration Report on page 54.  

6B. Fixed Remuneration  

Executive contracts of employment do not include any guaranteed base pay increases.  The fixed remuneration of executive directors is 
reviewed annually by the remuneration committee.  The process consists of a review of Company, business unit and individual performance, 
relevant comparative remuneration internally and externally and, where appropriate, external advice independent of management.   

The fixed component of the remuneration of executive directors is disclosed in Table 1 on page 48 of this report.

6C. Actual Performance Against Short Term Incentive (STI) Measures   

A combination of financial and non-financial measures is used to measure performance for STI awards.  The aggregate maximum amount of 
2018 STI Plan PCI potentially payable was $2,800,000.  50% of the STI is dependent on the satisfaction of financial performance conditions 
(exclusively based on RONA) and 50% is measured against the achievement of set non-financial measures.  Actual performance against 
those measures is as follows for FY18: 

(a)  85.00% achievement of the 50% Financial Condition (score of 42.50%) = $1,190,000 payable for FY18 
(b)  77.52% achievement of the 50% Non-Financial Conditions (score of 38.76%) = $1,085,280 payable for FY18 

The total 2018 STI Plan PCI payable in respect of the 2018 financial year is $2,275,280, representing a total achievement of 81.26% of the 
maximum 2018 STI PCI as shown in the tables below.  The payment of the 2018 STI Plan PCI is to be made on or before 28 September 2018, 
or as soon as reasonably practicable after that date, subject to the satisfaction of the 2018 STI Plan Service Conditions.

for the 2018 STI Plan were substantially achieved.  Based on a score of 50%, an amount of $1,085,280 representing 38.76% of the aggregate 
maximum STI amount attributable to the non-financial performance measures will become payable to executive directors.

6D. Actual Performance Against Long-Term Incentive (LTI) Measures for Tranche 3 of the 
2016 LTI Plan 

With the exception of the service condition, the Board has resolved that the conditions in respect of Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan will be all 
financial, based exclusively on RONA, where Tranche 3 RONA means the fraction Tranche 3 Aggregate APBT  Tranche 3 Aggregate Net 
Assets, expressed as a percentage.  Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan will be measured over a three-year period for financial years ending 30 
June 2018, 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2020.  The financial condition of Tranche 3 will be wholly satisfied if the cumulative RONA over the 
measurement period is 20%, with lesser vesting as set out in the LTI Plan conditions on pages 38 and 39.  Tranche 3 will not vest if the RONA 
is less than 16% on a cumulative basis over the three-year measurement period. 

A total of 400,000 performance rights were granted to executive directors on 1 December 2017.  The performance rights were independently 
valued by Mercer Consulting (Australia) Pty Limited at a fair value of $3.34 per entitlement share, based on a share price of $4.02 as at grant 
date, resulting in a total fair value of Tranche 3 of $1,336,000.  The Remuneration Committee had regard to certificates and reports from 
officers of the Company, other Board committees and management, including the Performance Report and Internal Audit Report, and has 
estimated, based on the available evidence, that the financial performance condition for Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan will be 40% achieved 
by the end of the vesting period and 40% of the estimated fair value of the performance rights will meet the performance condition.   

The probability of 40% vesting has been estimated based on the calculation of Tranche 3 RONA for the 2018 financial year of 17.15% (see 
table below for the calculation).  A 17.15% RONA for FY18 resulted in a 40% vesting for year 1 of the three-year measurement period.  A 40% 
vesting probability will result in an estimated cumulative Tranche 3 fair value of $534,400 over the vesting period.  An amount of $100,526 
has been recognised as remuneration to executive directors and expensed in the income statement on a straight-line basis for the year 
ended 30 June 2018.

Subject to the satisfaction of the financial performance condition and service conditions of the 2016 LTI Plan, Tranche 3 will vest on 31 
December 2020.  The exercise price for each performance right will be nil.  If exercised, each performance right will be converted into one 
ordinary share of the Company.  Unexercised performance rights, will lapse, irrespective of whether they have become exercisable on 1 July 
2023 or: 
 
 

such earlier date specified by the Board; 
the Board determines the performance rights granted to a Grantee should lapse, as a result of any fraud, gross misconduct or conduct 
by that Grantee which brings the Company into disrepute; or  
the Board determines the relevant requirements in relation to performance rights granted to a Grantee, including performance 
conditions and a service condition, have not and are incapable of being met.

6E. Reassessment of Tranche 2 of the 2016 LTI Plan PCI Performance Conditions and 
Expense Recognised in FY18 

In 2017, a total of 400,000 performance rights were granted to executive directors on 28 November 2016 under Tranche 2 of the 2016 LTI 
Plan.  The performance rights were independently valued by Mercer Consulting (Australia) Pty Limited at a fair value of $3.87 per entitlement 
share, based on a share price of $4.73 as at grant date, resulting in a total fair value of Tranche 2 of $1,548,000.  Tranche 2 of the 2016 LTI 
Plan will be measured over a three-year period for financial years ending 30 June 2017, 30 June 2018 and 30 June 2019. 

In the 2017 Remuneration Report, it was reported that the estimated achievement of Tranche 2 of the 2016 LTI Plan would have been 80% by 
the end of the vesting period and that 80% of the estimated fair value of the performance rights would meet the performance condition.  The 
probability of 80% vesting had been estimated based on the calculation of Tranche 2 RONA for the 2017 financial year of 19.94%.

6E. Reassessment of Tranche 2 of the 2016 LTI Plan PCI Performance Conditions and Expense Recognised in 
FY18 (continued) 

The financial performance condition of Tranche 2 is subject to reassessment during each of the Tranche 2 Financial Years meaning the 
financial years ending 30 June 2017, 2018 and 2019.  A reassessment of the Tranche 2 Aggregate APBT and Tranche 2 Aggregate Net Assets 
for the 2017 and 2018 financial years resulted in a revised RONA for the two-year aggregated period of 18.51%.  A revised aggregated RONA 
of 18.51% for the Tranche 2 Financial Years has resulted in a revised probability of vesting of 60%.  A decrease in the vesting probability from 
80% in the prior year to 60% in the current year will result in an estimated cumulative expense in respect of Tranche 2 of $928,800, a 
decrease of $309,600 from the previous cumulative Tranche 2 expense of $1,238,400.

In 2016, a total of 400,000 performance rights were granted to executive directors on 30 November 2015 under Tranche 1 of the 2016 LTI 
Plan.  The performance rights were independently valued by Mercer Consulting (Australia) Pty Limited at a fair value of $3.52 per entitlement 
share, based on a share price of $4.08 as at grant date, resulting in a total fair value of Tranche 1 of $1,408,000.  Tranche 1 of the 2016 LTI 
Plan will be measured over a three-year period for financial years ending 30 June 2016, 30 June 2017 and 30 June 2018. 

In the 2016 Remuneration Report, it was reported that the estimated achievement of Tranche 1 of the 2016 LTI Plan would have been 40% by 
the end of the vesting period and that 40% of the estimated fair value of the Tranche 1 performance rights will meet the performance 
condition.  The probability of 40% vesting had been estimated based on the calculation of Tranche 1 RONA for the 2016 financial year of 
17.56%.   

The financial performance condition of Tranche 1 is subject to reassessment during each of the Tranche 1 Financial Years meaning the 
financial years ending 30 June 2016, 2017 and 2018.  A reassessment of the Tranche 1 Aggregate APBT and Tranche 1 Aggregate Net Assets 
for the 2016, 2017 and 2018 financial years has resulted in a revised RONA for the three-year aggregated period of 18.21%.  A revised 
aggregated RONA of 18.21% for the Tranche 1 Financial Years results in a probability of vesting of 60%.  This revised probability of vesting is 
consistent with the FY 2017 estimate vesting probability of 60%.  The cumulative expense in respect of Tranche 1 is $844,800, consistent 
with the previous cumulative Tranche 1 expense reported in the 2017 Remuneration Report.

6G. Reassessment of the 2015 LTI Plan PCI Performance Conditions and Expense 
Recognised in FY18 

In previous years up to the 2015 financial year, the LTI was delivered as a performance cash incentive (PCI).   

The 2015 LTI Plan, adopted by the Board during the 2015 financial year, remained in existence for the assessment of the 2015 LTI award 
granted to executive directors.  The LTI award for the 2015 financial year was measured against financial and non-financial performance 
conditions measured in the 2015 financial year and reassessed in the 2016 and 2017 financial years, subject to the terms and conditions of 
the 2015 LTI Plan.   

In the 2017 financial year, the Remuneration Committee had regard to certificates and reports from officers of the Company, other Board 
committees and management, including the Performance Report and Internal Audit Report, and had reassessed the probable achievement 
of the 2015 LTI Plan PCI to be 93.4%, an increase of 3.4% from 90.0% in 2016, due to a further 3.4% achievement of set non-financial 
performance conditions thereby increasing the non-financial performance conditions score from 40% to 43.4%.  

A revised assessment of 93.4% vesting probability resulted in the vesting of 93.4% of the 2015 LTI Plan PCI and a payment due of 
$3,455,800, with a payable date of on or about 30 June 2018, subject to the achievement of the 2015 LTI Plan Service Conditions.  An 
amount of $863,359 has been recognised as remuneration to executive directors in respect of the 2015 LTI Plan PCI and expensed in the 
income statement for the year ended 30 June 2018.  The aggregate value of the 2015 LTI Plan PCI of $3,455,800 was paid on 4 July 2018.

8.  Non-Executive Director Remuneration Arrangements 

Remuneration Policy 

The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the consolidated entity with the ability to attract and retain directors 
of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders. 

The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the fee structure is reviewed annually against fees paid 
to NEDs of comparable companies.  The Board considers published material from external sources and makes its own enquiries when 
undertaking the annual review process. 

The Company’s constitution and the ASX listing rules specify that the NED fee pool shall be determined from time to time by a general 
meeting. The latest determination was at the 2006 annual general meeting (AGM) held on 21 November 2006 when shareholders approved 
an aggregate NED pool of $1,000,000 per year. 

The Board will not seek any increase for the NED pool at the 2018 AGM.    

Structure 

The remuneration of NEDs consists of directors’ fees.  NEDs do not receive retirement benefits, nor do they participate in any incentive 
programs.  Each NED receives a fee for being a director of the Company.  The structure of NED remuneration is separate and distinct from 
executive remuneration.  The remuneration of NEDs for the years ended 30 June 2018 and 30 June 2017 are disclosed in Table 1 on page 48 
of this report.

a)  A total of 400,000 performance rights under Tranche 3 FY2018 of the 2016 LTI Plan were granted to executive directors on 1 December 2017.  The performance rights were independently valued by Mercer 
Consulting (Australia) Pty Limited at grant date with a fair value of $3.34 per entitlement share granted under Tranche 3 on 1 December 2017, based on a share price of $4.02.  The fair value was derived 
from a discounted cash flow technique where the value of the performance right is the face value of the share at grant date less the present value of the dividends expected to be paid on the share but not 
received by the holder during the vesting period.  Subject to the satisfaction of the financial performance condition (calculated exclusively based on RONA) and service conditions of the 2016 LTI Plan, the 
total fair value of Tranche 3 performance rights amounted to $1,336,000 in aggregate. 

b)  As at 30 June 2018, a total of 1,200,000 performance rights under Tranche 1 FY2016 (as to 400,000 performance rights), Tranche 2 FY2017 (as to 400,000 performance rights) and Tranche 3 FY2018 (as to 

400,000 performance rights) of the 2016 LTI Plan were outstanding, unvested and not capable of exercise.

provides electricity to the site.   

The consolidated entity has undertaken the following recent actions with respect to solar energy, LED lighting and stormwater harvesting 
systems: 

Solar Energy 
Following an analysis across 13 franchised complexes and 24 months of data, the consolidated entity can report: 
 
A net saving across the franchised complexes that were analysed of 1,308,310KWh of electricity, or 10.59%; 
 
A reduction in C02 emissions across these franchised complexes of 1,209 tonnes, an 11.66% reduction, which is equivalent to taking 
200 cars off the road for a 12-month period.   

Approximately 60% of the previously planned installations are complete.  Sites are regularly analysed for participation in the program and it is 
expected that the program will continue beyond the current scope to franchised complexes that demonstrate appropriate payback.   

LED Lighting  
The LED program is in the process of being implemented within 35 franchised complexes in Australia and 13 company-operated stores in 
New Zealand.  Using estimates based on the energy consumption of the existing T8 lighting fittings at these locations, the estimated savings 
from reduced consumption of energy and repairs and maintenance spend on lighting are in excess of $1.40 million per annum and an 
average payback of 2.7 years.  Further analysis and tracking of savings will be undertaken as the program is rolled-out. 

Stormwater Harvesting Systems 
During the 2018 financial year, the consolidated entity has installed rainwater harvesting systems at 3 franchised complexes, with a fourth 
system to be installed in November 2018.  When complete, the four systems will collect rainwater totalling 916,000 litres, which is used for 
irrigation and reduces the reliance on the mains water supply. 

Actions of Franchisees 

Franchisees have taken a product stewardship approach to waste.  The Australian Packaging Covenant (“APC”) is a sustainable packaging 
initiative which aims to change the culture of business to design more sustainable packaging, increase recycling rates and reduce packaging 
litter.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 

Introduction 

The  board  of  directors  (Board)  of  Harvey  Norman  Holdings  Limited  (HVN  or  the  Company)  is  committed  to  a  high  standard  of  corporate 
governance, and is responsible for establishing, maintaining and monitoring the corporate governance framework of the consolidated entity. 
The Board has benchmarked its practices against the ASX Corporate Governance Council's (CGC) published guidelines and the CGC corporate 
governance principles and recommendations (27 March 2014 edition) (Principles).  The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of 
the Company on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable. 

This Corporate Governance Statement (Statement) summarises the Company's corporate governance practices including compliance with the 
Principles for the year ended 30 June 2018.  The Statement has been approved by the Board. 

Further details about corporate governance policies adopted by the Company and the Board and committee charters may be accessed via the 
Company's website www.harveynormanholdings.com.au (website). 

The Board 

Role and Responsibilities 
The role and responsibility of the Board is to set and approve the strategy of the Company, to identify significant business risks and ensure 
arrangements are in place in order to manage those risks and review the performance of the CEO.  The Board aims to foster a culture of 
compliance, with an emphasis on ethical behaviour, accountability, corporate and individual integrity and respect for others. 

The Board has established guidelines for the composition of the Board and meeting processes. 

The responsibility for implementation of strategy and risk management and operations of the business is delegated, by the Board, to the CEO 
and the executive management team.  The CEO reports to the Board on operational issues that include:  
a)  Recommendations on strategic initiatives and developing and implementing corporate strategies; 
b)  Preparation for approval by the Board of budgets and cash flow forecasts and management of operations within the financial 

constraints imposed by the Board; 

c)  Maintenance of effective compliance and risk management frameworks; 
d)  Evaluation of the performance of key executives, including succession and learning and growth activities; 
e)  Achievement of financial and non-financial key performance indicators as set by the Board; and 
f) 

Information to keep the Board and ASX fully informed having regard to continuous disclosure obligations. 

The Company's continuous disclosure policy sets out procedures supporting the Company's compliance with its continuous disclosure 
obligations under the ASX listing rules. The policy is available on the Governance page of the website. 

Matters which are specifically reserved for the Board are set out in the Board Charter, which is available on the Governance page of the 
website.  Other functions reserved for the Board include: 
a)  Approving the annual and half-yearly financial reports; 
b)  Approving and monitoring the progress of major capital expenditure, capital management, and acquisitions and divestitures;  
c)  Ensuring that any significant risks are identified, assessed, appropriately managed and monitored; and 
d)  Reporting to shareholders. 

Board Structure and Composition 
The relevant factors in determining the suitability of a board member are integrity, business savvy, an owner-oriented attitude and a deep 
genuine interest in the business of the consolidated entity.   

In applying these principles to the consolidated entity: 
a)  Business savvy requires a deep understanding of one or more of the sectors of retail, property, franchising and digital. 
b) 

Integrity requires a level of fundamental honesty, candour and frankness in dealing with colleagues, regulators and other third parties. 
Integrity necessarily requires a director to bring an open mind and independent judgment to the discussion of any matter of concern to 
the Board. 

c)  An owner orientation or perspective of an owner requires the individual to either have: 

i. 

ii. 

"skin in the game" by holding, controlling or benefitting from a significant parcel of shares where the financial interests of 
the director are aligned with the long term beneficial interest of shareholders; or 

a perspective of advising owners of businesses and understanding that wealth generation is derived from the building of 
business interests that create long term sustainable value. 

Directors with an owner orientation retain an open mind to consider diverse views but are not strictly beholden to the whims of 
fashionable thinking and are able to form their own views as to what constitutes best practice in corporate governance. 

d) 

Interest in and time to do the job means: 

i. 
ii. 

the person has an executive role, meaning that the person's career is based on job performance at the company; or 

the individual has a limited number of outside interests (i.e. the person is not a professional non-executive director),  

but in both cases the individual has an independence of mind and outlook.  

Applying these criteria to the current Board, the Board is satisfied that each Director brings to the Board the necessary skills and attributes 
specified.

Directors of the Company are considered to be independent when they are independent of management and free from any business or other 
relationship that could interfere materially with, or could reasonably be perceived to interfere materially with, the exercise of their unfettered 
and independent judgement. 

A majority of the Board does not consist of independent directors.  The majority of the Board consists of executive directors.  The Board 
recognises the CGC's recommendation that a majority of the Board should consist of independent directors. 

The Board believes that each executive director (and each non-executive director who is not independent) is able to bring, and does bring 
quality independent judgement to all relevant issues falling within the scope of the role of that executive director and that the Company, as a 
whole, benefits from the long-standing experience of that director in relation to the operations and business relationships of the Company.  
The Board notes that while the two independent, non-executive members have each served more than nine years, having regard to the 
totality of the defining characteristics of an independent director and the specific skills and experience of these directors, the Board still 
believes each of them are able to bring quality independent judgement to the issues that come before the Board. 

The Board recognises the CGC's recommendation that the Chair should be an independent director.  As Chair, Mr Gerald Harvey is not an 
independent director.  

The Board believes that Mr Gerald Harvey is the most appropriate person to lead the Board as Executive Chairman and that he is able to 
bring, and does bring quality independent judgement to all relevant issues falling within the scope of the role of Chairman and that the 
Company, as a whole, benefits from his long standing experience of its operations and business relationships.  

The Company has in place with each Director a written agreement which sets out the terms of their appointment. 

Board Committees 

The Board has established specialist Audit, Nomination, Remuneration and Risk Committees.  

The membership and responsibilities of these Committees are discussed throughout this Statement and in the Board and Committee 
charters that may be accessed on the Governance page of website. 

Performance and Board Procedure 
The performance of the Board and key executives is reviewed regularly against both measurable and qualitative indicators that align with the 
financial and non-financial objectives of the Company.  The Nomination Committee conducted performance evaluations of each director, 
committee and the Board for the reporting period.  

Opportunities are made available to Directors to undertake appropriate professional development, to develop and maintain the skills required 
for them to perform their role as a director of the Company. 

Directors may seek independent professional advice at the expense of the Company, subject to procedures agreed by the Board. 

The Company Secretary is responsible for all matters concerning the proper functioning of the Board and its Committees, including 
convening, conducting and recording of meetings, compliance with policy and charters, and advising the Board and its Committees as to 
governance matters. The Company Secretary is able to meet with the Chair on any matter regarding the functioning of the Board and its 
Committees. 

Nomination Committee 
The Board has established a Nomination Committee, which meets at least annually, to ensure that the Board continues to operate within the 
established guidelines, including when necessary, selecting candidates for the position of director and undertaking appropriate checks, 
including character and qualifications, of any potential candidate.  Material information relating to any potential candidate is provided to 
shareholders before shareholders are asked to vote on the election or re-election of a director.  There is an induction program for new 
directors. 

The Nomination Committee was comprised of non-executive directors, Graham Charles Paton (Chairman), Christopher Herbert Brown and 
Kenneth William Gunderson-Briggs for the year. 

The Nomination Committee recognises the CGC's recommendation that the Chair of the committee should be an independent director.  Mr 
Graham Charles Paton is an independent director. 

Details of attendance at meetings of the Nomination Committee are set out in the Directors’ Report on page 11 of this report.  Additional 
details regarding the Nomination Committee, including its charter, are available on the Governance page of the website.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONTINUED) 

Audit Committee 
The members of the Audit Committee during the year were: 

Graham Charles Paton (Chairman) 
Christopher Herbert Brown 
Kenneth William Gunderson-Briggs 

 
 
 
each of whom is a non-executive director and the Chairman is independent. 

Details of each Audit Committee member's qualifications and their attendance at meetings of the Audit Committee during the past year are 
set out in the Directors’ Report on pages 10 and 11 of this report.  Additional details about the Audit Committee, including its charter, are 
available on the Governance page of the website. 

Risk 
The identification and effective management of risk, including calculated risk-taking is viewed as an essential part of the approach of the 
Company to creating long-term shareholder value. 

The Board determines the risk profile of the Company and is responsible for overseeing and approving risk management strategy and 
policies, internal compliance and internal control.  The Board has established a separate Risk Committee, to assist the Board, and has 
appointed a Chief Risk Officer to collate, monitor, evaluate and report material risks to the Board. 

The Board recognises the CGC's recommendation that the chair should be an independent director and that the Risk Committee should 
consist of a majority of independent directors.  The Board considers that the frequent reporting to the Audit Committee by both the 
chairman of the Risk Committee and the Chief Risk Officer (the latter as providing private reports to the Audit Committee) provides an 
adequate and appropriate level of involvement by the independent directors in the risk management function. 

The Risk Committee is not comprised of a majority of independent directors and is not chaired by an independent director.  The Risk 
Committee is comprised of four executive directors, including the CEO and CFO.  The Chief Risk Officer is required to attend all meetings of 
the Risk Committee to inform and assist members of the Risk Committee to carry out its functions.  The chairman of the Risk Committee and 
the Chief Risk Officer, both regularly attend meetings of the Audit Committee to inform members of the Audit Committee of risk matters 
considered by the Risk Committee.  The chairman of the Risk Committee regularly reports to the Board on matters considered by the Risk 
Committee. 

The Board, in conjunction with the Chief Risk Officer, oversees an annual assessment of the effectiveness of risk management and control.  
The tasks of undertaking and assessing risk management are delegated to the Chief Risk Officer through the CEO, including responsibility for 
the day to day design and implementation of the risk management system of the Company.  The Chief Risk Officer reports to the Board on 
the key risks of the Company and the extent to which the Chief Risk Officer believes these risks are being adequately managed. 

The annual assessment has been undertaken for the year ended 30 June 2018.  The key business risks identified by the Board are 
summarised in the Directors' Report on pages 30 and 31 of this report. 

The Chief Risk Officer is required by the Board to carry out risk specific management activities in core areas, including strategic risk, 
operational risk, reporting risk and compliance risk.  The Chief Risk Officer is then required to assess risk management and associated internal 
compliance and control procedures and report to the Board on the efficiency and effectiveness of these efforts by benchmarking 
performance substantially in accordance with Australian/New Zealand Standard for Risk Management (AS/NZS ISO 31000:2009 Risk 
Management). 

The Board has a number of mechanisms in place to ensure that management’s objectives and activities are aligned with the risks identified 
by the Board.  These include: 
a)  Board approval of strategic plans designed to meet stakeholders’ needs and manage business risk; and 
b) 

Implementation of Board approved operating plans and budgets and Board monitoring of progress against these budgets, including the 
establishment and monitoring of financial and non-financial KPIs. 

The Board has adopted a comprehensive set of policies and procedures directed towards achieving the recognition and management of risks 
relating to: 
a)  Effectiveness and efficiency in the use of the resources of the Company. 
b)  Compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and  
c)  Preparation of reliable published financial information. 

Additional details about the Risk Committee, including a copy of its charter, is available on the Governance page of the website. 

Internal Audit 
The internal audit function provides an objective assessment of: 
a) 
The systems of internal control; 
b)  The risk and control framework; and 
c)  Generally, compliance by the Company with risk management protocols of the Company. 

The Board has appointed a Head of Internal Audit to monitor and assess the internal control environment of the Company.  The tasks of 
undertaking and assessing internal control effectiveness are delegated to the Head of Internal Audit through the Chief Executive Officer, 
including responsibility for the day to day design and implementation of the internal control system of the Company.  The Head of Internal 
Audit reports to the Board on the key internal controls of the Company and the extent to which the Head of Internal Audit believes these 
controls are effective.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONTINUED) 

Internal Audit (continued) 

In order to ensure the independence of the internal audit function, the Head of Internal Audit meets privately with the Audit Committee, 
without management present, on a regular basis.  The Audit Committee is responsible for making the final decision on the Head of Internal 
Audit’s tenure. 

CEO and CFO Certification 

The CEO and CFO have provided written statements to the Board in  accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act 2001 and have also 
certified to the  Board in relation to the year ended 30 June 2018, that: 
a) 

Their view provided on the Company’s financial report is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and 
control which implements the financial policies adopted by the Board; and 

b)  The Company’s risk management and internal compliance and control system is operating effectively in all material respects. 

The Board agrees with the views of the ASX on this matter and notes that due to its nature, internal control assurance from the CEO and CFO 
can only be reasonable rather than absolute.  This is due to factors such as the need for judgement, the use of testing on a sample basis, the 
inherent limitations in internal control and because much of the evidence available is persuasive rather than conclusive. CEO and CFO control 
assurance is not, and cannot, be designed to detect all weaknesses in control procedures. 

In order to mitigate this risk, internal control questions are required to be answered and completed by the key management personnel of all 
significant business units, including finance managers, in support of the written statements of the CEO and CFO. 

Remuneration 

The Company aspires to maximise shareholder value by retaining a high quality Board and executive team.  Directors and key executives are 
remunerated fairly and appropriately with reference to relevant employment market conditions.  To assist in achieving this objective, the 
Remuneration Committee links the nature and amount of executive directors’ and officers’ remuneration to the Company’s financial and 
operational performance.  The expected outcomes of the remuneration structure are: 
a)  Retention and motivation of key executives; 
b)  Attraction of high quality management to the Company; and 
c)  Performance incentives that allow executives to share in the success of Harvey Norman Holdings Limited.   

The Remuneration Report (contained with the Directors' Report on pages 32 to 56 of this report) contains a description of the Company’s 
remuneration philosophy and framework and the remuneration received by directors and executives in the current year.  The Remuneration 
Report also sets out executive contractual arrangements.  

There is no scheme to provide retirement benefits to non-executive directors. 

The Board is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors themselves, the Chief Executive 
Officer and executive team.  The Board has established a Remuneration Committee, comprising three non-executive directors.  Members of 
the Remuneration Committee throughout the year were Kenneth William Gunderson-Briggs (Chairman), Christopher Herbert Brown and 
Graham Charles Paton.  No director participates in deliberations about, or decisions, in respect of the remuneration of that director.   

The Remuneration Committee recognises the CGC's recommendation that the Chair should be an independent director.  Mr Kenneth William 
Gunderson-Briggs is an independent director. 

Details of attendance of meetings of the Remuneration Committee are set out in the Directors’ Report on page 11 of this report.  Additional 
details about the Remuneration Committee, including its charter, are available on the Governance page of the website. 

Share Trading Policy 

A copy of the Share Trading Policy is available on the Governance page of the website.  An executive or director of the Company must not 
trade in any securities of the Company at any time when he or she is in possession of unpublished, price-sensitive information in relation to 
those securities.  If the executive or director is not in possession of unpublished, price-sensitive information, then they are able to trade 
securities in Trading Windows.   

Trading Windows apply during each period of 30 days starting: 
a)  One day following the announcement of the half yearly and full year results as the case may be; and  
b)  One day following the holding of the Annual General Meeting. 

Before commencing to trade outside a Trading Window, an executive must first obtain the approval of the Company Secretary or CEO to do 
so and a director must first obtain approval of the Chairman.

Diversity Measures, Targets and Initiatives  

The consolidated entity is committed to increasing diversity in the workplace and, in particular, increasing the participation of women in the 
consolidated entity so as to broaden the talent pool from which future leaders of the consolidated entity can be drawn. 

During the financial year ended 30 June 2018, the following measures, targets and initiatives were undertaken in accordance with the diversity 
objectives of the consolidated entity: 

Policies and Procedures 
a) 

The Diversity and Reconciliation Intranet page was reviewed and updated, making information and resources available to employees on 
key diversity areas including gender, culture, generational & mature age, disability and family & work-life balance.  In particular the 
creation of additional resources for expectant parents and to refine “keeping-in-touch” and “flexible work” practices to ensure 
employees feel supported while on parental leave and returning to work.  

b)  Reviewed and updated Human Resources (“HR”) policies and processes to ensure that they are inclusive in nature and do not expressly 

or implicitly operate in a manner contrary to the Employee Diversity Policy or the Board Diversity Policy.  

c)  Continued development of role-based training content for the Learning Management System (“LMS”), which assists managers to 

identify any skill or knowledge gaps of employees and ensures consistency of opportunity across all employees in equivalent roles.   

d)  Wherever possible, included: 

a)  At least one female on a short list of applicants for all senior management roles; and 

b)  At least one woman in the selection panel for all senior management roles. 

Monitoring 
a)  Delivered the annual employee diversity survey to monitor underlying changes to the composition of the workforce, cultural heritage 

and caring responsibilities and assess the consolidated entity’s progress in improving workplace diversity and engagement.  The results 
of this survey were made available to employees on the Diversity and Reconciliation Intranet page.  

b)  Annual refresher training was delivered for Bullying, Harassment and Discrimination.  An audit was conducted to capture completed 

training by employees and the Board in an effort to eliminate bullying and harassment in the workplace.  

c)  As part of the annual governance reporting the business created a workplace profile, as at 30 March 2018, and analysed this data to 

monitor and evaluate any gender pay gaps within the consolidated entity.  

d)  Continued to leverage existing recruitment systems to enable regular reporting and assessment of progress towards the adopted 
gender diversity objectives. An example of this is the continued rollout of recruitment and on-boarding technology to improve and 
promote consistent recruitment processes and better enable reporting across the consolidated entity. 

Community 
a)  Renewed membership of the Diversity Council Australia to reinforce the consolidated entity's commitment to an inclusive culture and 

diversity in the workplace and to add value to diversity related initiatives. 

b)  Engaged the Diversity Council of Australia to deliver targeted face to face training to Senior Managers showcasing the impact of 

“Unconscious Bias” and “Words at Work” to encourage the promotion of fair and unbiased people practices. 

c)  Conducted the annual “Taste of Harmony” event in March 2018 to raise awareness and embrace the cultural diversity of the workplace. 
Money raised as part of this annual diversity event was once again donated to “Fitted for Work”, a local charity with a mission statement 
to “help women experiencing disadvantage get work and keep it”. 

d)  Once again participated in the “NRL All Stars Youth Summit” in February 2018 to further develop and grow relationships with younger 

members of the indigenous community and assist in their journey of attaining education and employment.  

e)  Continued to develop the partnership with Australia Indigenous Mentoring Experience (“AIME”) to support in promoting employment 
opportunities to Indigenous Australians.  Harvey Norman and AIME have developed an action plan for the 2019 financial year that 
includes attending outreach sessions and careers days to build relationships with Indigenous students.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

(a) 

   Corporate Information 

Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (the “Company”) is a for profit company limited by shares incorporated in Australia and operating in 
Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Singapore, Malaysia, Slovenia and Croatia whose shares are publicly traded on the 
Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) trading under the ASX code HVN.   

(b) 

   Basis of Preparation  

The financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment properties, land and buildings, derivative financial 
instruments, listed shares held for trading and available-for-sale investments, which have been measured at fair value.  The carrying values 
of recognised assets and liabilities that are designated as hedged items in fair value hedges that would otherwise be carried at amortised 
cost are adjusted to record changes in the fair values attributable to the risks that are being hedged in effective hedge relationships. 

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($000) unless otherwise 
stated under the option available to the Company under Australian Securities and Investments Commission Corporations (Rounding in 
Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191.  The Company is an entity to which this legislative instrument applies.   

The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “consolidated entity”) for the year ended 30 June 2018 was 
authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 28 September 2018. 

(c) 

   Statement of Compliance 

The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations 
Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, and complies with other requirements of the law.  The financial report 
complies with Australian Accounting Standards, as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board, and International Financial 
Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. 

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective have not been 
adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2018.  For details on the impact of future accounting 
standards, refer to page 84.  

(d) 

   Basis of consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Harvey Norman Holdings Limited and its controlled entities.  
Control is achieved when the consolidated entity is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has 
the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.  Specifically, the consolidated entity controls an investee if and only if 
the consolidated entity has all of the following: 
 
 
 

Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee) 
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and 
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns 

When the consolidated entity has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the consolidated entity considers all 
relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including: 
 
 
 

The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee 
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements 
The consolidated entity’s voting rights and potential voting rights 

The consolidated entity re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one 
or more of the three elements of control.  Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the consolidated entity obtains control over the 
subsidiary and ceases when the consolidated entity loses control of the subsidiary.   

All intercompany balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full.  
Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.  Financial statements of foreign controlled entities presented in 
accordance with overseas accounting principles are, for consolidation purposes, adjusted to comply with the consolidated entity’s policy and 
generally accepted accounting principles in Australia.  

Non-controlling interests are allocated their share of net profit after tax in the income statement and are presented within equity in the 
consolidated statement of financial position, separately from the equity of the owners of the Parent.  Losses are attributed to the non-
controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance. 

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary (without a change in control) is to be accounted for as an equity transaction.  

(e) 

   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  

(i)    Changes in accounting policy, disclosures, standards and interpretations 

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as discussed below.  The consolidated entity 
applied for the first time certain standards and amendments, which are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017.  
These new pronouncements do not have a material impact on the annual consolidated financial statements of the consolidated entity.  The 
consolidated entity has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

 1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)  

(ii)    Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions  

In applying the consolidated entity’s accounting policies, management continually evaluates judgements, estimates and assumptions based 
on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have an impact on the consolidated entity.  All judgments, 
estimates and assumptions made are believed to be reasonable based on the most current set of circumstances available to management.  
Actual results may differ from the judgments, estimates and assumptions.  Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions made by 
management in the preparation of these financial statements are outlined below: 

Significant accounting judgements: 

(a)    Assessment of AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements in respect of Harvey Norman®, Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® 
        Franchisees in Australia 

In determining whether the consolidated entity has control over an entity (investee) and should or should not consolidate the results of the 
investee, the consolidated entity assesses its exposure to / rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and whether it 
has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.  

The assessment of whether Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (HNHL), or any subsidiary of HNHL, as franchisor, should consolidate or not 
consolidate the results of a franchisee or business operations of that franchisee, is determined by whether the franchisor has control over 
the franchisee.   The assessment of whether a franchisor controls a franchisee or the business operations of that franchisee, involves 
significant judgment in assessing whether the franchisor has sufficient power through its rights under arrangements with franchisees and 
through the practical application of those arrangements, to direct the relevant activities of the franchisee that most significantly affect the 
returns (profits or losses) of the franchisee. 

At least on an annual basis, the directors of HNHL will reassess the requirements of control in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated 
Financial Statements.  During the 2018 financial year, after considering both the legal arrangements in place between the consolidated entity 
and Harvey Norman®, Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® franchisees and the practical application of those arrangements, the directors have 
continued to conclude that HNHL, or any subsidiary of HNHL, does not control the business operations of franchisees.  In particular, HNHL, or 
any subsidiary of HNHL, does not have any existing rights that give the consolidated entity the current ability to direct the relevant activities 
that most significantly affect the returns of the franchisee.  The ability to direct the relevant activities that most significantly affect the 
returns of the franchisee, rest with the franchisee.  

HNHL, or any subsidiary of HNHL, does not have any voting rights or legal ownership of any equity interest in any franchisee business.  Each 
franchise business is operated by a separate legal entity which is independent of HNHL, or any subsidiary of HNHL.  The franchisee has the 
authority and decision-making responsibility over the day-to-day operation and administration of the franchisee business.  The franchisee 
has the substantive right to control the decisions regarding sales and pricing, inventory purchasing and inventory management, staff 
management (hiring, termination, staff numbers, remuneration, appointment of management) and employment of personnel including key 
management.   

The above assessment has resulted in the conclusion that the assets, liabilities and the results of franchisees in Australia are not 
consolidated by the consolidated entity because the consolidated entity does not control the business operations of Harvey Norman®, 
Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® franchisees. 

(b)    Operating lease commitments – consolidated entity as lessor 

The consolidated entity has entered into commercial property leases in respect of its investment property portfolio.  The entity has 
determined, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of 
ownership of these properties and has classified the leases as operating leases.   

(c)    Recovery of deferred tax assets 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences as management considers that it is probable that future taxable 
profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences.  Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it 
is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised.   

Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely 
timing and the level of future taxable profits. 

Significant accounting estimates and assumptions: 

The key estimates and assumptions at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying 
amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period, are described below.  The consolidated entity based its assumptions 
and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared.  Existing circumstances and assumptions 
about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the consolidated 
entity.  Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.  

(a)    Revaluation of investment properties 

The consolidated entity values investment properties at fair value.  The valuations are determined by independent external valuers or 
reviewed internally by the Property Review Committee and the directors of the Company.  Independent valuations are performed by external, 
professionally qualified valuers who hold a recognised, relevant professional qualification and have specialised expertise in the properties 
valued.  The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the investment properties, and the relevant sensitivity analysis, are 
disclosed in Note 15.

(ii)    Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) 

(b)    Revaluation of property, plant and equipment  

The consolidated entity values land and buildings at fair value.  The valuations are determined by independent external valuers or reviewed 
internally by the Property Review Committee and the directors of the Company.  The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of 
owner-occupied land and buildings, and the relevant sensitivity analysis, are disclosed in Note 14. 

(c)    Revaluation of investment properties for development 

An investment property for development is valued at fair value if it can be reliably determined.  If a fair value cannot be reliably determined, 
then the investment property for development is measured at cost.  The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the investment 
properties for development and the relevant sensitivity analysis, are disclosed in Note 15.     

(d)    Impairment of financial assets and trade receivables 

The consolidated entity assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial 
assets is impaired.  A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if there is objective evidence of impairment as a 
result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ”loss event”) and that loss event has an 
impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.  Evidence of 
impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or 
delinquency in interest or principal payments or the probability that they will enter bankruptcy. 

The carrying amount of the asset is either directly reduced or reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss 
is recognised in the income statement.   

Further details on the significant judgements considered by management relating to impairment of financial assets are disclosed in Note 7.  
The impairment loss is disclosed in Notes 4 and 7. 

(e)    Impairment of equity-accounted investments 

The consolidated entity determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired.  If 
there is such evidence, the consolidated entity calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of 
the associate or joint venture and its carrying value.   

(f)    Share-based payment transactions 

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.   

(g)    Make good provisions 

Provisions are recognised for the anticipated costs of future restoration of leased premises.  The provision includes future cost estimates 
associated with dismantling and removing the assets and restoring the leased premises according to contractual arrangements.  These 
future cost estimates are discounted to their present value.  The related carrying amounts are disclosed in Note 20. 

(h)    Onerous lease provisions 

The provision for onerous lease costs represents the present value of the future lease payments that the consolidated entity is presently 
obligated to make in respect of onerous lease contracts under non-cancellable operating lease agreements.  This obligation may be reduced 
by the revenue expected to be earned on the lease including estimated future sub-lease revenue, where applicable.  The estimate may vary 
as a result of changes in the utilisation of the leased premises and sub-lease arrangements where applicable.  The related carrying amounts 
are disclosed in Note 20. 

(iii)    Investment in associates and joint ventures  

An associate is an entity over which the consolidated entity has significant influence.  Significant influence is the power to participate in the 
financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but does not control or have joint control over those policies. 

A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of 
the joint venture.  Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the 
relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. 

The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary to determine control over 
subsidiaries.  

The consolidated entity’s investments in its associate and joint venture are accounted for using the equity method.  

Under the equity method, the investment in an associate or joint venture is initially recognised at cost.  The carrying amount of the 
investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the consolidated entity’s share of net assets of the associate or joint venture since the 
acquisition date.   

After application of the equity method, the consolidated entity determines whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with 
respect to the consolidated entity’s net investment in the associates and joint ventures.  At each reporting date, the consolidated entity 
determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired.  If there is such evidence, 
the consolidated entity calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or joint 
venture and its carrying value.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

 1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 
(iii)    Investment in associates and joint ventures (continued) 

Joint venture land and building assets, primarily relating to the joint ownership of shopping complexes, resort operations and 
residential/convention developments, are directly owned by each joint venture partner as tenants in common in their respective shares.  
Joint venture land and buildings assets are classified as joint venture operations and the consolidated entity’s share of land and building 
assets are proportionately consolidated in the consolidated financial statements within investment properties. 

(iv)    Foreign currency translation 

Both the functional and presentation currency of Harvey Norman Holdings Limited and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars. 

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency at exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.  
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the exchange rate prevailing at balance date. 

Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss with the exception of monetary items that 
are designated as part of the hedge of the consolidated entity’s net investment in a foreign operation.  These are recognised in other 
comprehensive income until the net investment is disposed of, at which time, the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.  Tax 
charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those monetary items are also recorded in other comprehensive income.   

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date 
of the initial transaction.  Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the 
date when the fair value was determined. 

The functional currency of overseas subsidiaries is the currency commonly used in their respective countries.  As at the reporting date the 
assets and liabilities of these overseas subsidiaries are translated into the presentation currency of the consolidated entity at the rate of 
exchange prevailing at the balance date and the income statements are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the year.  
The exchange differences arising on retranslation for consolidation are recognised in other comprehensive income.  On disposal of a foreign 
entity, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in profit or loss.  

(v)    Property, plant and equipment 

Plant and equipment assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.  Land, 
leasehold land and buildings are measured at fair value less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses recognised after the date 
of the revaluation.  Valuations are performed with sufficient frequency to ensure that the carrying amount of an asset does not differ 
materially from its fair value.  

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows: 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Land – not depreciated 
Leasehold land – lease term 
Buildings under construction – not depreciated 
Buildings – 20 to 40 years 
Owned plant and equipment – 3 to 20 years 
Plant and equipment under finance lease – 1 to 5 years 

The assets’ residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.   

Revaluation of owner-occupied properties 

Following initial recognition at cost, owner-occupied land and buildings (including leasehold land) are carried at fair value less any 
subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. 

Fair value is determined by reference to market-based evidence, which is the amount for which the assets could be exchanged between a 
knowledgeable, willing buyer and a knowledgeable, willing seller in an arm’s length transaction as at the valuation date.  Owner-occupied 
properties, upon any revaluation, are valued at fair value, determined by independent licensed valuers, or directors’ valuations where 
necessary.   

Any revaluation surplus is recorded in other comprehensive income and credited to the asset revaluation reserve in equity.  However, to the 
extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in the income statement, the increase is recognised in 
the income statement.  Any revaluation deficit is recognised in the income statement, except to the extent that it offsets a previous surplus 
of the same asset in the asset revaluation reserve.  

Any accumulated depreciation as at revaluation date is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is 
restated to the fair value of the asset.  Upon disposal, any revaluation reserve relating to the particular asset being sold is transferred to 
retained earnings. 

Valuations are performed with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from the asset’s fair value at 
the balance date.  

Derecognition and disposal 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or 
disposal.  Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the 
carrying amount of the item) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised.

(vi)   Borrowing costs 

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily 
take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the 
assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.  All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred.  
Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.  

(vii)   Investment properties 

Investment properties 

Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and / or for capital appreciation are measured initially at cost including 
transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the 
balance date.  Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in the income statement in the 
period in which they arise. 

Investment property is derecognised when the property has either been disposed of or when the property is permanently withdrawn from 
use and no future benefit is expected from their disposal.  The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the 
asset is recognised in the income statement in the period of derecognition. 

Transfers are made to investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by the ending of owner-occupation, 
commencement of an operating lease to another party or ending of construction or development.  Transfers are made from investment 
property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by commencement of owner-occupation.   

Properties located in the Australian Capital Territory (“ACT”) which are held under a 99 year ground crown land sublease from the 
Commonwealth Government are not amortised over the remaining life of the lease, as the expectation is that these leases will be renewed at 
minimal cost once they expire.  Properties located in the ACT have been accounted for as investment properties as they are primarily held to 
earn rental income.   

Each investment property is valued at fair value.  Each investment property is the subject of a lease or licence in favour of independent third 
parties, including Harvey Norman®, Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® franchisees (“Franchisees”).  Franchisees occupy properties pursuant to a 
licence, terminable upon reasonable notice.  The fair value in respect of each investment property has been calculated primarily using the 
income capitalisation valuation method, against current market rental value, and having regard to, in respect of each property: 
 
 
 
 
 

the highest and best use 
quality of construction  
age and condition of improvements  
recent market sales data in respect of comparable properties 
current market rental value, being the amount that could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length 
transaction 
tenure of franchisees and external tenants  
adaptive reuse of buildings 
non-reliance on turnover rent 
the specific circumstances of the property not included in any of the above points 

 
 
 
 

The income capitalisation valuation method is the primary method used for valuations.  A discounted cash flow valuation or a direct sale 
comparison valuation is undertaken as a secondary method, excluding investment property for development.   

Investment property for development 

Investment property for development are valued at fair value if fair value can be reliably determined.  The direct sale comparison method is 
used for the valuation of investment property for development. 

(viii)    Intangible assets 

Intangible assets, consisting of capitalised computer software assets, capitalised development expenditures and licence property, are carried 
at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.  Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis over 
their estimated useful lives but not greater than a period of eight and a half (8.5) years.   

Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists, either individually or at the cash generating unit level.  
Useful lives are also examined on an annual basis and adjustments, where applicable, are made on a prospective basis.  The amortisation 
expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in profit or loss in the expense category consistent with the function of the 
intangible asset.   

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the 
carrying amount of the intangible asset and are recognised in the income statement when the intangible asset is derecognised. 

Development expenditures on an individual project are recognised as an intangible asset when the consolidated entity can demonstrate: 
 
 
 
 
 

the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale 
its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset 
how the asset will generate future economic benefits 
the availability of resources to complete the asset 
the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development 

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and 
accumulated impairment losses.  Amortisation of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use.  It is 
amortised over the period of expected future benefit.  During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.

 1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(ix)    Impairment of non-financial assets 

The consolidated entity assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired.  If any indication 
exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the consolidated entity estimates the asset’s recoverable amount.  An 
asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash generating unit’s (CGUs) fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.  
Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of 
those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.  
When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its 
recoverable amount. 

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects 
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. 

In determining fair value less costs to sell, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available.  If no such transactions can be 
identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.  These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples for publicly traded subsidiaries 
or other available fair value indicators.  

The consolidated entity bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for 
each of the consolidated entity’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated.  These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover 
a period of five (5) years.  For longer periods, a long-term growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the fifth 
year.  

Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the income statement in expense 
categories consistent with the function of the impaired assets, except for a property previously revalued and the revaluation was taken to 
other comprehensive income.  In this case, the impairment is also recognised in other comprehensive income up to the amount of any 
previous revaluation.  

An assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses 
may no longer exist or may have decreased.  If such indication exists, the consolidated entity estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable 
amount.  A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the 
asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised.  The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset 
does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no 
impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.  Such reversal is recognised in the income statement unless the asset is carried 
at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. 

(x)    Financial assets  

Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-
maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as 
appropriate.   

All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus transaction costs, except in the case of financial assets recorded at fair value 
through profit or loss.  

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the 
market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e. the date that the consolidated entity commits to purchase or sell the 
asset. 

The consolidated entity’s financial assets include cash and short-term deposits, trade and other receivables, quoted financial instruments 
and derivative financial instruments.  

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:  
 
 
 
 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 
Held-to-maturity investments 
Loans and receivables 
Available-for-sale financial assets 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated upon initial 
recognition at fair value through profit or loss.  Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling 
in the near term with the intention of making a profit.  Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as 
effective hedging instruments as defined by AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (AASB 139).   

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value 
presented as finance costs (negative net changes in fair value) or finance income (positive net changes in fair value) in the income 
statement.  

Held-to-maturity investments 
Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when the 
consolidated entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.  After initial measurement, held-to-maturity investments are 
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR), less impairment.  Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any 
discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR.  The EIR amortisation is included as finance income 
in the income statement.  The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the income statement as finance costs.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 
(x)    Financial assets (continued) 

Loans and receivables 
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.  After 
initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method, less impairment.  Amortised 
cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR.  The 
EIR amortisation is included as finance income in the income statement.  The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the income 
statement as administrative expenses for loans and in other operating expenses for receivables.   

Available-for-sale financial assets 
Available-for-sale financial assets include equity investments.  Equity investments classified as available-for-sale are those that are neither 
classified as held for trading nor designated at fair value though profit or loss.  After initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are 
measured at fair value with gains or losses recognised as other comprehensive income in the available-for-sale reserve until the investment 
is derecognised, at which time the cumulative gain or loss is recognised in other operating income, or the investment is determined to be 
impaired, when the cumulative loss is reclassified from the available-for-sale reserve to the income statement in finance costs.  The fair 
values of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets are determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the 
close of business at balance date.  For investments with no active market, fair values are determined using valuation techniques.  Dividends 
on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the income statement when the consolidated entity’s right to receive the 
dividends is established. 

Derecognition of financial assets 
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:  
 
 

The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired. 
The consolidated entity has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has transferred substantially all the risks and 
rewards of the asset.  

Impairment of financial assets 
The consolidated entity assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial 
assets is impaired.  A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of 
impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ”loss event”) and that 
loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably 
estimated.  Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial 
difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments or the probability that they will enter bankruptcy. 

The carrying amount of the asset is either directly reduced or reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss 
is recognised in the income statement.  Loans together with the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of 
future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the consolidated entity.  If, in a subsequent year, the amount of 
the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously 
recognised impairment loss is increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account.  If a future write-off is later recovered, the recovery 
is credited in the income statement. 

For available-for-sale financial investments, the consolidated entity assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that 
an investment or a group of investments is impaired.  In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, objective evidence 
would include a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment below its cost.  ”Significant” is evaluated against the 
original cost of the investment and ”prolonged” against the period in which the fair value has been below its original cost.  When there is 
evidence of impairment, the cumulative loss, measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any 
impairment loss on that investment previously recognised in the income statement, is removed from other comprehensive income and 
recognised in the income statement.  Impairment losses on equity investments are not reversed through the income statement; increases in 
their fair value after impairment are recognised directly in other comprehensive income. 

(xi) Financial liabilities 

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables, 
or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.   

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable 
transaction costs.  The consolidated entity’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, interest-bearing loans and borrowings and 
derivative financial instruments. 

The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, described as follows: 

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss 
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial 
recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.  Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of 
selling in the near term.  Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the income statement.  Financial liabilities designated 
upon initial recognition at fair value through profit and loss only if the criteria of AASB 139 are satisfied.   

Loans and borrowings 
After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method.  Gains 
and losses are recognised in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.  
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the 
EIR.  The EIR amortisation is included in finance costs in the income statement. 

Derecognition of financial liabilities 
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expires.  When an existing financial 
liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially

(xi) Financial liabilities (continued) 

modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability.  The 
difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the income statement. 

(xii)  Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting  

The consolidated entity uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts to hedge its risks associated with foreign 
currency fluctuations.  Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is 
entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value.  The fair value of forward currency contracts is calculated by reference to 
current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.     

Derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value is positive and as liabilities when their fair value is negative.  Any gains or losses arising 
from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is 
recognised in other comprehensive income and later reclassified to profit or loss when the hedge item affects profit or loss.   

For the purposes of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as either fair value hedges when they hedge the exposure to changes in the fair 
value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm commitment; or cash flow hedges where they hedge exposure to variability in 
cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast 
transaction. 

At the inception of a hedge relationship, the consolidated entity formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which the 
consolidated entity wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge.  The 
documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and 
how the entity will assess the effectiveness of changes in the hedging instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the 
hedged item’s fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk.  Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving 
offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly 
effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.  

Fair value hedges 
The change in the fair value of a hedging instrument is recognised in profit or loss. The change in the fair value of the hedged item 
attributable to the risk hedged is recorded as part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognised in profit or loss.  For fair 
value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying value is amortised through profit or loss over the 
remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method.  EIR amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the 
hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.  If the hedged item is derecognised, the 
unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss.  When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, 
the subsequent cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as an asset or 
liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in profit and loss.  The consolidated entity uses forward currency contracts to manage 
the exposure of changes in the fair value of its receivables or payables that are denominated in foreign currencies.  

Cash flow hedges 
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in other comprehensive income in the cash flow hedge 
reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement.  The consolidated entity uses forward currency 
contracts as hedges of its exposure to foreign currency risk in forecast transactions and firm commitments.  The ineffective portion relating 
to forward currency contracts is recognised in other operating income or expenses.  

Amounts recognised as other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or loss when the hedged transaction affects profit or loss. 
When the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the amounts recognised as other comprehensive income 
are transferred to the initial carrying amount of the non-financial asset or liability. 

If the hedge instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover (as part of the hedging strategy), or if its 
designation as a hedge is revoked, or when the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss 
previously recognised in other comprehensive income remains separately in other comprehensive income until the forecast transaction 
occurs or the foreign currency firm commitment is met.  

(xiii)   Inventories 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value and are recorded net of all volume rebates, marketing and business 
development contributions and settlement discounts.  Costs are on a weighted average basis and include the acquisition cost, freight, duty 
and other inward charges.  Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs 
necessary to make the sale. 

(xiv)    Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and on hand and short-term deposits with an original 
maturity of three months or less.  For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash 
equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts are included within interest-bearing loans and 
borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.   

(xv)  Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is 
probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be 
made of the amount of the obligation.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 
(xv)  Provisions (continued) 

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the 
risks specific to the liability.  Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance 
cost, in the income statement. 

The consolidated entity recognises a liability to pay a dividend when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the 
discretion of the consolidated entity.  As per the corporate laws of Australia, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the 
shareholders.  A corresponding amount is recognised directly in other comprehensive income.   

Provisions are made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of annual leave and long service leave when it is probable that settlement 
will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.  

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months, are measured at their nominal values using the 
remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.  Provisions made in respect of employee benefits which are not expected to 
be settled within 12 months are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the consolidated entity 
in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date.  Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, 
experience of employee departures and periods of service.  Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting 
date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash 
outflows. 

Expenses for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable. 

(xvi)    Share-based payment transactions 

The consolidated entity provides benefits to certain employees (including executive directors) of the consolidated entity in the form of 
share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (“equity-settled 
transactions”). 

The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation 
model. 

That cost is recognised in employee benefits expense, together with a corresponding increase in other comprehensive income (employee 
equity benefits reserve), over the period in which the service and, where applicable, the performance conditions are fulfilled (the vesting 
period).  The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent 
to which the vesting period has expired and the consolidated entity’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately 
vest.  The expense or credit in the income statement for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the 
beginning and end of that period. 

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the 
likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the consolidated entity’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that 
will ultimately vest.  Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value.  Any other conditions attached to an award, 
but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions.  Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair 
value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions. 

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been 
met.  Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or 
non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied. 

When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognised is the grant date fair value of the unmodified 
award, provided the original terms of the award are met.  An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognised for 
any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee.  
Where an award is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed 
immediately through profit or loss.  

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.  

(xvii)   Leases 

Consolidated entity as lessor 
Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables.  Finance lease receivables are initially recognised at amounts 
equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments receivable plus the present value of any unguaranteed residual value expected to 
accrue at the end of the lease term.  Finance lease payments are allocated between interest revenue and reduction of the lease receivable 
over the term of the lease in order to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease. 

Leases in which the consolidated entity does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of an asset are classified as 
operating leases.  Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and 
recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they 
are earned.  

Consolidated entity as lessee 
A lease is classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease.  A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and 
rewards incidental to ownership to the consolidated entity is classified as a finance lease.   

Finance leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the 
minimum lease payments.  Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve

(xvii)   Leases (continued) 

a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.  Finance charges are recognised in finance costs in the income 
statement.  Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. 

An operating lease is a lease other than a finance lease.  Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the income statement 
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 

Financial incentive contributions received from lessors are recognised at their fair value on receipt as a liability in the financial statements.  
The liability is reduced and recognised as income, by offsetting against occupancy expenses in the income statement over the period the 
consolidated entity expects to derive a benefit from the incentive contribution.  Lease incentives are normally amortised to the income 
statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.   

(xviii)  Revenue 

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the consolidated entity and the revenue can be 
reliably measured regardless of when the payment is received.  Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or 
receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty.  The following specific recognition 
criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: 

Sale of goods 
Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, usually on delivery of the 
goods.  Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and 
allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates.   

Franchise fee income 
Revenue attributable to franchise fees is recognised in the income statement only when the franchise fees have been earned. 

Rental income 
Rental income arising on investment properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms and is included in revenue due 
to its operating nature.   Contingent rental income is recognised as income in the periods in which it is earned. 

Interest income 
For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost and interest-bearing financial assets, interest income is recorded using the 
effective interest rate (EIR).  The EIR is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the 
financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.  Interest income is included in 
finance income in the income statement. 

Dividends 
Revenue is recognised when the shareholders’ right to receive the payment is established, which is generally when shareholders approve the 
dividend.  

(xix)  Taxes 

Current income tax 
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.  The 
tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date in the 
countries where the consolidated entity operates and generates taxable income.   

Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the income statement. Management 
periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to 
interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.  

Deferred tax 
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying 
amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to 
the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of 
unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:  
  when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in 
a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable 
profit or loss; and  
in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates  and interests in joint ventures, 
deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable 
future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised in respect of taxable temporary 
differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the 
reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the 
foreseeable future. 

 

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except: 
  when the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business 

 

combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and  
the carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable 
that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 
(xix)  Taxes (continued) 

Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and recognised to the extent that it has become probable that 
future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.  

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the 
liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.  Deferred tax 
assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities 
and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. 

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss.  Deferred tax items are recognised in 
correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.   

Goods and services tax (GST) 
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except: 
  when the GST incurred on a sale or purchase of assets and services is not payable or recoverable from the taxation authority, in which 
case the GST is recognised as part of the revenue or expense item or as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset as applicable.  

  when receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. 

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement 
of financial position.  Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation 
authority. 

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis.  The GST component of cash flows arising from operating, investing 
and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority, is classified as operating cash flows. 

Tax consolidation 
Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (HNHL) and its 100% owned Australian resident subsidiaries are members of a tax consolidated group.  
HNHL is the head entity of the tax consolidated group.  Members of the group have entered into a tax sharing agreement which provides for 
the allocation of income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations.  At the balance date, 
the possibility of default is remote.   

Wholly owned companies of the tax consolidated group have entered into a tax funding agreement. The funding agreement provides for the 
allocation of current and deferred taxes on a modified standalone basis in accordance with the principles as outlined in UIG Interpretation 
1052 Tax Consolidation Accounting.  The allocation of taxes under the tax funding agreement is recognised as an increase/decrease in the 
subsidiaries’ inter-company accounts with the tax consolidated entity head entity HNHL. 

(xx)  Earnings per share (EPS) 

Basic EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity (other than dividends), divided by 
the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus elements. 

Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members, adjusted for: 
 
 

costs of servicing equity (other than dividends); 
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; 
and 
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the year that would result from the dilution of potential shares, 
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. 

 

(xxi)  Contributed Equity 

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.  Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a 
reduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. 

(xxii) Operating segments 

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses 
(including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly 
reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision makers to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its 
performance and for which discrete financial information is available.  This includes start up operations which are yet to earn revenues.  
Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of 
segment information presented to the Board of directors. 

Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers – being the executive 
management team.  The consolidated entity aggregates two or more operating segments when they have similar economic characteristics, 
and the segments are similar in each of the following respects: 
 
 
 
  methods used to distribute the products or provide the services; and, if applicable 
 

nature of the products and services; 
nature of the production processes; 
type or class of customer for the products and services; 

nature of the regulatory environment. 

Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 Operating Segments are reported separately.  However, an 
operating segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about the segment would be 
useful to users of the financial statements.  Information about other business activities and operating segments that are below the 
quantitative criteria are combined and disclosed in a separate category as “other segments”.

(f) 

   Future Accounting Standards 

Certain Australian Accounting Standards have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the 
consolidated entity for the year ended 30 June 2018.   

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 

AASB 9 replaces AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.  The standard includes a single approach for the 
classification and measurement of financial assets, based on cash flow characteristics and the business model used for the management of 
the financial instruments.  For financial liabilities designated as fair value through profit or loss, the amount of change in the fair value of 
such financial liabilities that is attributable to changes in credit risk must be presented in other comprehensive income, and the remaining 
change is presented in profit or loss.  The incurred loss model used in AASB 139 has been replaced by the expected credit loss model in 
AASB 9 for impairment of financial assets.  The requirements of hedge accounting have been amended to more closely align hedge 
accounting with risk management and establish a more principles-based approach to hedge accounting.   

The consolidated entity will first apply AASB 9 in the financial year beginning 1 July 2018.  The consolidated entity is in the process of 
finalising its assessment of the requirements of the new standard and its impact on the consolidated entity’s financial assets or financial 
liabilities for the year ended 30 June 2019.   

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers  

AASB 15 provides a single, principles-based, five-step model to recognise and measure revenues arising from contracts with customers.  The 
core principle of AASB 15 is that an entity recognises revenue related to the transfer of promised goods or services when control of the 
goods or services passes to customers.  The amount of revenue recognised should reflect the consideration to which the entity expects to 
be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.     

The consolidated entity has identified the significant performance obligations and revenue streams across the business as part of their 
detailed assessment of the impact of AASB 15 on the financial statements and related note disclosures of the consolidated entity.  Based on 
the work performed to date, the consolidated entity expects that there would be no material impact on the financial statements of the 
consolidated entity upon implementation of the new standard for the year ended 30 June 2019.  The consolidated entity will first apply AASB 
15 in the financial year beginning 1 July 2018 and is expected to apply the standard retrospectively only to the contracts that are not 
completed at the date of initial application.  The impact of the application of the standard is being monitored by the consolidated entity, and 
the consolidated entity expects to conclude on the impact in due course.   

 AASB 16 Leases 

From the effective date of the new standard, AASB 16 will replace the existing accounting requirements for leases under AASB 117 Leases 
and the related interpretations of the current standard.  Lessees will no longer distinguish between finance lease contracts and operating 
lease contracts.  From a balance sheet perspective, right-of-use (ROU) assets and the associated lease liabilities, representing the present 
value of future lease payments, will be recognised on the consolidated Statement of Financial Position for all lease contracts, with the 
exception of short term (less than 12 months) and low-value leases.   From a profit and loss perspective, lease expenses recognised under 
the current standard will be replaced by the depreciation charge on the ROU assets and the interest expense recognised in respect of the 
lease liabilities.  From a cash flow presentation perspective, lease payments are required to be separated into a principal portion (presented 
within financing activities) and an interest portion (presented within operating activities, consistent with the consolidated entity’s accounting 
policy).   

The consolidated entity will first apply AASB 16 in the financial year beginning 1 July 2019 and is expected to apply the modified retrospective 
approach.  Therefore the cumulative effect of adopting AASB 16 will be recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained 
earnings at 1 July 2019, with no restatement of comparative information.   

The consolidated entity is in the process of completing an assessment of the impact of implementing the requirements of AASB 16.  The 
primary impact of AASB 16 will relate to the accounting treatment, presentation and disclosures of rental lease contracts relating to the 
property leases of externally-leased franchised complexes in Australia and the leased company-operated stores in overseas regions – that 
is, where the consolidated entity is the named lessee in the lease contract.  Where the consolidated entity is a lessor, the application of AASB 
16 remains largely unchanged relative to the current accounting treatment.   

As at 30 June 2018, 100 franchised complexes out of a total 195 franchised complexes in Australia (representing 51.3% of the total) are 
leased from external landlords and are subject to retail-use property leases.  In overseas regions, 65 company-operated stores out of a total 
89 company-operated stores (representing 73.0% of the total) are leased from external landlords and are subject to retail-use property 
leases.  Upon adoption of the standard, the consolidated entity will be required to calculate the ROU assets and the lease liabilities in respect 
of these leased sites, and will recognise these amounts as part of total assets and total liabilities within the consolidated Statement of 
Financial Position.  Upon implementation, these leased sites will be subject to the new accounting treatment, presentation and disclosure 
requirements as described above.   

Based on the detailed analysis performed to date, the consolidated entity expects there to be a material increase in total assets and total 
liabilities on the consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  The impact on the net asset position of the consolidated entity and the impact 
on the Income Statement from transition date will depend on future economic conditions, including the consolidated entity’s borrowing rate 
at 1 July 2019 and the composition of the consolidated entity’s lease portfolio, including tenure of the lease and the decisions regarding the 
estimated lease-term for those property leases containing renewal options.

The weighted average number of ordinary shares used in calculating basic earnings per share is inclusive of the new shares 
totalling 1,134,000 ordinary shares in the company issued during the year pursuant to the options issued to certain executive 
directors under the Executive Option Plan granted on 29 November 2012 (the Third Tranche), weighted on a pro-rata basis from 
issue date to 30 June 2018. 

(b) 

Effect of Dilutive Securities 

On 29 November 2012, the consolidated entity issued 3,000,000 unlisted options to certain executive directors (the “Third 
Tranche”).  These options are capable of exercise from 1 January 2016 to 30 June 2018 at an exercise price of $1.83 per option 
and a fair value of $0.282 per option at grant date.  On 14 November 2013, the consolidated entity announced that a total of 
1,299,000 options over 1,299,000 shares in respect of the Third Tranche had lapsed and will never be exercisable by the 
participants.  On 14 March 2016, a total of 567,000 options over 567,000 shares in respect of the Third Tranche were exercised 
reducing the unexercised portion to 1,134,000 options.  On 4 September 2017, a total of 567,000 options over 567,000 shares in 
respect of the Third Tranche were exercised reducing the unexercised portion to 567,000 options. On 3 March 2018, the 
remaining 567,000 options over 567,000 shares were exercised.  

On 30 November 2015, the consolidated entity issued a total of 400,000 performance rights under Tranche 1 of the 2016 LTI Plan 
to the executive directors. A performance right is the right to acquire one ordinary share in the Company at nil exercise price.  If 
exercised, each performance right will be converted into one ordinary share in the Company.  These performance rights are 
capable of exercise from 1 January 2019 to 30 June 2021.  The performance rights were valued at grant date at $3.52 per 
entitlement share using a discounted cash flow technique.  Subject to the satisfaction of the financial performance condition 
(calculated exclusively based on RONA) and service conditions of the 2016 LTI Plan, the total fair value of Tranche 1 performance 
rights amounted to $1,408,000 in aggregate. 

On 28 November 2016, the consolidated entity issued a total of 400,000 performance rights under Tranche 2 of the 2016 LTI Plan 
to the executive directors. These performance rights are capable of exercise from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2022.  The 
performance rights were valued at grant date at $3.87 per entitlement share using a discounted cash flow technique.  Subject to 
the satisfaction of the financial performance condition (calculated exclusively based on RONA) and service conditions of the 2016 
LTI Plan, the total fair value of Tranche 2 performance rights amounted to $1,548,000 in aggregate. 

On 1 December 2017, the consolidated entity issued a total of 400,000 performance rights under Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan to 
the executive directors. These performance rights are capable of exercise from 1 January 2021 to 30 June 2023.  The 
performance rights were valued at grant date at $3.34 per entitlement share using a discounted cash flow technique.  Subject to 
the satisfaction of the financial performance condition (calculated exclusively based on RONA) and service conditions of the 2016 
LTI Plan, the total fair value of Tranche 3 performance rights amounted to $1,336,000 in aggregate. 

Performance rights issued under Tranche 1, Tranche 2 and Tranche 3 of the 2016 LTI Plan have been included in the calculation of 
diluted earnings per share.  They are considered to be dilutive as their conversion to ordinary shares would decrease the net profit 
per share.  There have been no conversions to, calls of, or subscriptions for ordinary shares or issues of potential ordinary shares 
since the reporting date.

(a)     Receivables from franchisees 

Derni Pty Limited (Derni), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (HNHL), may, at the request of a franchisee, 
provide financial accommodation in the form of a revolving line of credit, to that franchisee.  The repayment of the indebtedness of 
that franchisee to Derni is secured by a security interest over all present and after-acquired property of that franchisee, pursuant to 
a General Security Deed (GSD). 

The receivables from franchisees balance of $544 million as at 30 June 2018 comprises the aggregate of the balances due from each 
franchisee to Derni and is net of uncollectible amounts.  The indebtedness of each franchisee to Derni is reduced on a daily basis by 
an electronic funds transfer process.  Each franchisee directs the financial institution of that franchisee to transfer the net cash 
receipts in the bank account of the franchisee to Derni, in reduction of outstanding indebtedness.   

At each reporting date, Derni, as a secured creditor of the franchisee, conducts an assessment of recoverability in respect of each 
individual franchisee financial accommodation facility.  This involves an objective appraisal of the franchisee’s capacity to repay 
amounts owing to Derni, after taking into account all the assets of the franchisee held as security pursuant to the GSD. 

Receivables from franchisees are current and neither past due nor impaired as at 30 June 2018. 

(b)    

Trade receivables and provisions for doubtful debts 

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on 30 day terms.  A provision has been made for estimated 
unrecoverable trade receivable amounts arising from the past sale of goods and rendering of services when there is objective 
evidence that an individual trade receivable is impaired.  An impairment loss of $0.17 million (2017: $0.76 million) has been recognised 
by the consolidated entity in the current year for trade receivables.  This amount has been included in the other expenses line item 
in the Income Statement. 

The ageing analysis of current and non-current trade receivables is as follows: 
 

$89.38 million of the trade receivables balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $69.71 million) are neither past due nor impaired.  It 
is expected that these balances will be collected by the consolidated entity on, or prior to, the due date. 
$13.19 million of the trade receivables balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $11.29 million) are past due but not impaired as there 
has not been a significant change in credit quality and the consolidated entity believes that the amounts are still considered 
recoverable.  The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral over these balances as at 30 June 2018 (2017: nil). 
$0.75 million of the trade receivables balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $1.17 million) are past due and impaired which have 
been fully provided.

The consumer finance loans are non-interest bearing and are generally on 6 to 48 months interest-free terms.  The ageing analysis 
of current and non-current consumer finance loans is as follows: 
 

$3.16 million of the consumer finance loans at 30 June 2018 (2017: $2.59 million) are neither past due nor impaired.  It is 
expected that these balances will be collected by the consolidated entity on, or prior to, the due date.   
If a customer has missed a repayment in a consumer finance loan, the remaining balance of the consumer finance loan is 
treated as past due.  $0.33 million of the consumer finance loans balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $0.33 million) are past 
due but not impaired.  The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral over these balances and believes that these 
amounts will be recovered.  
$0.03 million of the consumer finance loans at 30 June 2018 (2017: $0.03 million) are past due and impaired which have been

The consolidated entity offers finance lease arrangements as part of the consumer finance business.  Finance leases are offered in 
respect of motor vehicles and livestock with lease terms not exceeding 4 years.  All finance leases are at fixed rates for the term of 
the lease.  A provision is made for estimated unrecoverable finance lease receivable amounts when there is objective evidence that a 
finance lease receivable is impaired.  No impairment loss has been recognised in the current year (2017: nil).   

The ageing analysis of current and non-current finance lease receivables is as follows: 
 
 

$1.41 million of the finance lease receivable balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $1.83 million) are neither past due nor impaired.

These receivables are subject to regular monitoring to ensure that they are recoverable.  As at balance date, there were no 
events that required the consolidated entity to sell or re-pledge the secured leased assets. 
No finance lease receivable balance as at 30 June 2018 is past due and impaired (2017: $2.46 million).   

 

(e)  Non-trade debts receivable and  provision for doubtful debts  

Non-trade debts receivable are generally interest-bearing and are normally payable at call.  The aggregate balance of current and non-
current non-trade debts receivable as at 30 June 2018 was $211.96 million (2017: $144.43 million) as follows:   
 

$43.16 million of the non-trade debts receivable balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $38.76 million) are neither past due nor 
impaired.  It is expected that these balances will be collected by the consolidated entity on, or prior to, the due date.   
$105.79 million of the non-trade debts receivable balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $57.37 million) are past due but not impaired.  
These receivables are subject to regular monitoring and periodic impairment testing to ensure that they are recoverable.   
$63.01 million of the non-trade debts receivable balance as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $48.31 million) are past due and impaired and a

The consolidated entity, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, has a 50% interest in KEH Partnership Pty Limited, a retail joint venture 
in Australia.  The primary business of the KEH Partnership retail joint venture is the retail sale of school apparel and educational 
goods through the brand name of The School Locker.  The ‘Big Buys by Harvey Norman®‘ division of the KEH Partnership was closed 
during the second half of the 2018 financial year.  

As at 30 June 2018, the consolidated entity had a commercial loan receivable from the KEH Partnership retail joint venture totalling 
$60.96 million in respect of the amounts advanced to The School Locker business to assist with working capital requirements (2017: 
$38.68 million).  The amounts previously advanced to the Big Buys by Harvey Norman® business were either repaid or written off in 
full upon closure of that business and was nil as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $34.92 million).  As at 30 June 2018, the total balance of the 
provision for doubtful debts relating to the non-trade receivable from The School Locker business of the KEH Partnership joint 
venture was $20.82 million (2017: $9.96 million).  The provision for doubtful debts previously raised for The Big Buys business was 
fully utilised upon closure (2017: $24.97 million).   

During the 2018 financial year, an impairment assessment was conducted resulting in the recognition of an expense of $16.92 
million (2017: $18.41 million), with $6.06 million relating to the Big Buys by Harvey Norman® business and $10.86 million relating to 
The School Locker business.   

As at 30 June 2018, the present value of future cash flows of The School Locker business was assessed for a five-year period, 
based on financial budgets and assets held as security.  The effective interest rate of 7.5% was applied to the cash flow 
projections.  Cash flow projections were limited to five years.  Each of the key assumptions in the impairment assessment were 
subject to significant accounting estimates and assumptions including the future trading performance of the retail joint 
venture.  Judgement was made based on these accounting estimates and assumptions to assess the recoverable amount of the 
non-trade receivables as at balance date. 

(ii) 

Impairment of the non-trade receivables from mining camp joint ventures: 

The consolidated entity has made commercial advances to the mining camp joint ventures totalling $37.63 million (2017: $31.15 
million) in aggregate as at 30 June 2018.   The recoverable amount of non-trade receivables advanced to the mining camp joint 
ventures was assessed during the year.  No impairment loss was recognised in the current year (2017: $0.43 million) to reduce the 
carrying amount of the non-trade receivable to recoverable amount.  The total balance of the provision for doubtful debts as at 30 
June 2018 relating to non-trade receivables from the mining camp joint ventures was $13.23 million (2017: $13.23 million). 

The recoverable amount for these non-trade receivables have been determined based on the present value of estimated cash flow 
projections as at 30 June 2018 for a five-year period, based on financial budgets and the assets held as security.  The effective 
interest rate applied to the cash flow projections was 7.5%.  Cash flow projections were limited to five years due to the inherent risks 
associated with the mining industry.  

Each of the key assumptions in the impairment assessment were subject to significant accounting estimates and assumptions 
about future economic conditions and its impact on the ongoing trading performance of the mining camp joint ventures and the 
possible commencement of future projects which are currently out to tender.  Judgement has been made, based on available 
information and these accounting estimates and assumptions, to each of these variables to assess the recoverable amount of the 
non-trade receivables as at balance date.

Impairment of non-trade receivables from the Coomboona joint venture: 

The total indebtedness of the Coomboona joint venture to the consolidated entity amounted to $74.99 million as at 30 June 2018 
(2017: $9.86 million).  An impairment assessment was conducted resulting in the recognition of an impairment expense of $28.78 
million (2017: nil) to reduce the carrying amount of the Coomboona joint venture non-trade receivable to its recoverable amount. 

The recoverable amount has been determined based on the estimated fair value of the securities granted by Coomboona 
Holdings Pty Limited (CHPL) and subsidiaries of CHPL. 

Each of the key assumptions in the impairment assessment was subject to significant accounting estimates and assumptions 
regarding the estimated shortfall in the repayment of the loans advanced by the consolidated entity to the Coomboona joint 
venture.  Refer to further information provided on Page 21 regarding the Other Segment.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

14.  PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued) 
(b) 

Fair value measurement, valuation techniques and inputs (continued) 

The income capitalisation method of valuation was used for the valuation of retail properties in New Zealand.  A discounted cash flow 
method was undertaken in respect of the same properties as a secondary method.  There were no material differences between the 
income capitalisation method result and the discounted cash flow method result.   

The income capitalisation method of valuation was used for the valuation of one (1) retail owner-occupied property in Australia.  A 
direct sale comparison method was used for the same property as a secondary method.  There were no material differences between 
the income capitalisation method result and the direct sale comparison method result.  

The income capitalisation method of valuation was used for the valuation of retail and warehouse properties in Slovenia.  The income 
capitalisation method of valuation was used for the valuation of retail property in Ireland.  The income capitalisation method, the direct 
sale comparison method and the discounted cash flow method were used for all properties in Singapore.     

The table on the previous page includes the following descriptions and definitions relating to valuation techniques and key 
unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value: 

Income capitalisation method 
Under the income capitalisation method, a property’s fair value is estimated based on either net market rent or the normalised net 
operating income generated by the property, which is divided by the appropriate market capitalisation rate.  

Discounted cash flow (“DCF”) method 
Under the DCF method, a property’s fair value is estimated using explicit assumptions about the benefits and liabilities of ownership 
over the asset’s life, including terminal value.  This involves the projection of a series of cash flows and the application of an 
appropriate market-derived discount rate to establish the present value of the income stream. 

Direct sale comparison method 
Under the direct sale comparison method, a property’s fair value is estimated based on comparable transactions. The unit of 
comparison applied by the consolidated entity is the price per square metre. 

Net market rent 
Net market rent is the estimated amount for which a property or space within a property could lease between a willing lessor and a 
willing lessee on appropriate lease terms in an arm’s length transaction, after proper marketing and wherein the parties have each 
acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.  In addition, an allowance for recoveries of lease outgoings from tenants is 
made on a pro-rata basis (where applicable). 

Capitalisation rate 
The rate at which net market income is capitalised to determine the value of a property.  The rate is determined by reference to 
market evidence and independent external valuations received. 

Terminal yield 
The capitalisation rate used to convert income into an indication of the anticipated value of the property at the end of a given period 
when carrying out a discounted cash flow calculation.  The rate is determined by reference to market evidence and independent 
external valuations received. 

Discount rate 
Rate used to discount the net cash flows generated from rental activities during the period of analysis.  The rate is determined by 
reference to market evidence and independent external valuations received. 

Price per square metre 
Price per square metre is obtained based on recent transactions of similar properties around the vicinity.  Appropriate adjustments are 
made between the comparables and the property to reflect the differences in size, tenure, location, condition and prevailing market 
conditions and all other relevant factors affecting its value.  

(c) 

Valuation process 

The local management team in each geographic location makes recommendations to the Property Review Committee and the 
directors of the Company for the results of the semi-annual property valuation review.  All owner-occupied properties are subject to 
independent valuation at least every three (3) years unless there is an indication that the carrying amount of the property differs 
materially from the fair value at balance date.  The aim of the valuation process is to ensure that properties held by the consolidated 
entity are compliant with applicable regulations and the consolidated entity’s valuation policy for owner occupied properties.  

Independent valuations are performed by external, professionally qualified valuers who hold a recognised, relevant professional 
qualification and have specialised expertise in the properties valued.  The balance of the properties are reviewed internally by the

The net market rent of a property and the capitalisation rate are key inputs of the income capitalisation valuation method.  The income 
capitalisation valuation method incorporates a direct interrelationship between the net market rent of a property and its capitalisation 
rate.  This methodology involves assessing the total net market income generated by the property and capitalising this in perpetuity to 
derive a capital value.  Significant increases (or decreases) in rental returns and rent growth per annum in isolation would result in a 
significantly higher (or lower) fair value of the properties.  There is an inverse relationship between the capitalisation rate and the fair 
value of properties.  Significant increases (or decreases) in the capitalisation rate in isolation would result in a significantly lower (or 
higher) fair value of the properties. 

The discount rate and terminal yield are key inputs of the discounted cash flow method.  The discounted cash flow method 
incorporates a direct interrelationship between the discount rate and the terminal yield as the discount rate applied will determine the 
rate in which the terminal value is discounted to present value.  Significant increases (or decreases) in the discount rate in isolation 
would result in a significantly lower (or higher) fair value.  Similarly, significant increases (or decreases) in the terminal yield in isolation 
would result in a significantly lower (or higher) fair value.  In general, an increase in the discount rate and a decrease in the terminal 
yield could potentially offset the impact on the fair value of the properties.  

(e)  Highest and best use 

For all owner occupied property that is measured at fair value, the current use of the property is considered the highest and best use.

Each investment property is valued at fair value.  Each investment property is the subject of a lease or licence in favour of 
independent third parties, including a Harvey Norman®, Domayne® and Joyce Mayne® franchisee.  A franchisee occupies properties 
pursuant to a licence, terminable upon reasonable notice.  The fair value in respect of each investment property has been calculated 
primarily using the income capitalisation method of valuation, using the current market rental value, and having regard to, in respect 
of each property: 
 
 
 
 
 

the highest and best use 
quality of construction  
age and condition of improvements  
recent market sales data in respect of comparable properties 
current market rental value, being the amount that could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s 
length transaction  
tenure of the franchisee and other tenants  
adaptive reuse of buildings 
non-reliance on turnover rent 
the specific circumstances of the property not included in any of the above points 

 
 
 
 

The income capitalisation method of valuation was primarily used for the valuation of all Retail, Warehouse and Office properties in 
Australia and the investment properties in New Zealand.  A discounted cash flow valuation or a direct sale comparison valuation was 
undertaken, excluding property for development in Australia, as a secondary method.  There were no material differences between 
the income capitalisation method result, the discounted cash flow method result and the direct sale comparison method result.  The 
direct sale comparison method was used for all properties classified as property for development.  

The descriptions and definitions relating to valuation techniques and key unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of 
investment properties are the same as those for owner-occupied properties detailed in Note 14(b). 

(c)  Valuation process 

All investment properties are subject to a semi-annual review to fair market value at each reporting period by the Property Review 
Committee, subject to review and final determination by the directors of the Company.  The aim of the valuation process is to ensure 
that investment properties are held at fair value and the consolidated entity is compliant with applicable regulations and the 
consolidated entity’s investment property valuation policy.  

At each reporting period, approximately one-sixth of the portfolio is independently valued by external valuers with the remaining five-
sixths of the portfolio reviewed for fair value by Directors.  The whole portfolio is independently valued every three years.  The 
independent valuations are performed by external, professionally qualified valuers who hold a recognised relevant professional 
qualification and have specialised expertise in the properties valued.  The balance of the property portfolio is reviewed internally by 
the Property Review Committee and the directors of the Company, which may result in internal valuations where necessary.

(c)  Valuation process (continued) 

The selection of sites to be independently valued is based on a pre-determined, fixed schedule that is generally geographically 
representative of the entire portfolio, where possible.  If the results of any of the independently valued sites during the period give rise 
to indicators of potential fair value issues or inconsistencies with the broader property portfolio, then the revaluation review is 
extended to include those other potentially affected sites.  For those similarly affected sites, a director’s valuation is prepared for 
review by the Property Review Committee.  In addition, the consolidated entity gives consideration to issues that may cause other 
sites to have varied significantly from the previously recorded fair value.  For sites where variations exist, a director’s valuation is 
performed and adjustment made to the value accordingly.  

The consolidated entity obtained independent valuations in respect of thirty seven (37) sites within the investment property portfolio 
during the year ended 30 June 2018.  Based on the results of the independent valuations and a consideration of other internal and 
external factors that may impact the fair value of the overall investment property portfolio, a further twenty-one (21) sites within the 
investment property portfolio were identified for further review by management.  The twenty-one (21) sites had generally been 
similarly affected by the same factors or characteristics of the properties which had been independently valued, particularly in relation 
to yields and market rentals.   

Additionally, the Property Review Committee undertakes a revaluation review of investment properties under construction that are 
greater than 75% complete.  The methodology to value a completed investment property also applies to the investment property 
under construction.  The fair value of the investment property under construction is determined under the income capitalisation 
valuation method by estimating the fair value of the property at completion date less the remaining costs to complete and allowances 
for associated risk.  As a secondary method, a discounted cash flow valuation is undertaken.  The Property Review Committee also 
performs a valuation for any property less than 75% complete where there is an indication of a substantial change in the risks or 
benefits to warrant an earlier assessment.  In general, direct sale comparison method of valuation is used for properties for future 
development. 

(d)  Sensitivity information 

Refer to Note 14(d) for the sensitivity information provided in respect of owner-occupied properties.

Make good provision 
In accordance with certain lease agreements, the consolidated entity is obligated to restore certain leased premises to a specified 
condition at the end of the lease term.  The make good provision represents the expected costs to be incurred in restoring the leased 
premises to the condition specified in the lease.   

Deferred lease expenses 
Deferred lease expenses represent the present value of the future lease payments that the consolidated entity is presently obligated 
to make under non-cancellable operating lease agreements to enable the even recognition of lease payments as an expense on a 
straight-line basis over the lease term.  

Onerous lease costs 
The provision for onerous lease costs represents the present value of the future lease payments that the consolidated entity is 
presently obligated to make in respect of onerous lease contracts under non-cancellable operating lease agreements.  This obligation 
may be reduced by the revenue expected to be earned on the lease including estimated future sub-lease revenue, where applicable.  
The estimate may vary as a result of changes in the utilisation of the leased premises and sub-lease arrangements where applicable.

Several lease agreements contain provisions that permit the tenant to exit, or break, the lease prior to the lease expiry date, subject to 
the adherence of the strict terms and conditions stipulated in the lease agreement that gives a tenant the right to terminate the

exit or break dates.

34.  CONTINGENT LIABILITIES  

As at 30 June 2018, Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (the Company) has entered into the following guarantees, however the 
probability of having to make a payment under these guarantees is considered remote: 

(a)  Guarantees in the normal course of business relating to the payment of lease obligations under an operating lease 

contract for certain leased franchised complexes in Australia and certain leased company-operated stores in overseas 
regions. 

(b)  Guarantees in the normal course of business relating to lease makegood obligations under certain operating lease 

contracts (with the exclusion of those lease makegood payments that are considered to be probable and recognised as a 
provision in Note 20).  
Indemnities to financial institutions to support bank guarantees in respect of the performance of contracts. 

(c) 
(d)  Financial performance guarantees in respect of obligations of certain third parties up to the amount necessary to enable 

those entities to meet their obligations as and when they fall due, subject to certain conditions. 

No provision has been made in the financial statements in respect of these contingencies as the possibility of a probable outflow 
under these guarantees is considered remote.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

35. 
(a) 

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 
Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies 
The consolidated entity’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise of trade and other payables and interest-
bearing loans and borrowings.  The consolidated entity’s principal financial assets, other than derivatives, include cash and cash 
equivalents, trade and other receivables, shares held for trading and listed shares available for sale.   

The consolidated entity manages its exposure to key financial risks, such as interest rate and currency risk in accordance with the 
consolidated entity’s financial risk management policy, as outlined in the Treasury Policy.  The objective of the policy is to support the 
delivery of the consolidated entity’s financial targets whilst protecting future financial security.  

The consolidated entity enters into derivative transactions, principally forward currency contracts.  The purpose is to manage the 
currency risks arising from the consolidated entity’s operations and its sources of finance. 

The main risks arising from the consolidated entity’s financial assets and financial liabilities are: 
 
 
 
 
 

foreign currency risk 
interest rate risk 
equity price risk 
credit risk; and 
liquidity risk 

The consolidated entity uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These include: 
  monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange risk; 
  monitoring assessments of market forecasts for interest rate and foreign exchange; 
 
  monitoring liquidity risk through the future rolling cash flow forecasts.  

ageing analyses and monitoring of specific credit allowances to manage credit risk; and 

The Board reviews and endorses policies for managing each of these risks as summarised below: 
 
 

the setting of limits for trading in derivatives; and 
hedging cover of foreign currency risk, credit allowances, and future cash flow forecast projections. 

(b)  Market Risk 

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market 
prices.  Components of market risk to which the consolidated entity are exposed are discussed below. 

 (i) 

Foreign Currency Risk Management  
Foreign currency risk refers to the risk that the value of financial instruments, recognised asset or liability will fluctuate due to changes 
in foreign currency rates. The consolidated entity undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies, hence 
exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise.  

The consolidated entity’s foreign currency exchange risk arises primarily from: 
 
 

receivables or payables denominated in foreign currencies; and  
firm commitments or highly probable forecast transactions for payments settled in foreign currencies. 

The consolidated entity is exposed to foreign exchange risk from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to: 
 
United States dollars; 
 
New Zealand dollars; 
 
Euro;  
 
British pound; 
 
Singapore dollars;  
  Malaysian ringgit; and 
 
The consolidated entity minimises its exposure to foreign currency risk by initially seeking contracts effectively denominated in the 
consolidated entity’s functional currency where possible and economically favourable to do so. Foreign exchange risk that arises from 
firm commitments or highly probable transactions is managed principally through the use of forward currency contracts. The 
consolidated entity hedges a proportion of these transactions in each currency in accordance with the Treasury Policy.

The sensitivities of post-tax profit and other comprehensive income in the current year are comparable to the prior year.   

The movements in post-tax profit are due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities including non-designated 
foreign currency derivatives.  The movements in other comprehensive income are due to changes in the fair value of forward

(b)  Market Risk (continued) 

(ii) 

Interest Rate Risk Management 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value on future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in 
market interest rates.  

The consolidated entity’s exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Cash and cash equivalents; 
Non-trade debts receivable from related entities and unrelated entities; 
Bank overdraft; 
Non-trade amounts owing to directors and other related parties; 
Syndicated Facility; 
Commercial bills; and 
Other short-term borrowings 

The consolidated entity manages the interest rate exposure by adjusting the ratio of fixed interest debt to variable interest debt to a 
desired level based on current market conditions.  Where the actual interest rate profile on the physical debt profile differs 
substantially from the desired target, the consolidated entity uses interest rate swap contracts to adjust towards the target net debt 
profile.  Under the interest rate swap contracts, the consolidated entity agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, 
the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional principal 
amounts.

The following sensitivity is based on interest rate risk exposures in existence at balance date. 

At 30 June 2018, if interest rates were 50 basis points higher or 50 basis points lower, with all other variables held constant, post tax profit 
and other comprehensive income would have been affected as follows: 

If there was 50 (2017: 50) basis points higher in interest rates 
with all other variables held constant 
If there was 50 (2017: 50) basis points lower in interest rates 
with all other variables held constant

The movements in post tax profit are due to higher or lower interest costs from variable rate bank debt, other loans and cash 
balances.  

The movements in post tax profit in the current year are comparable to the prior year.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued) 

(iii) 

Equity Price Risk Management 
The consolidated entity is exposed to equity price risk arising from equity investments.  Equity investments are held for strategic 
rather than trading purposes.  The exposure to the risk of a general decline in equity market values is not hedged as the consolidated 
entity believes such a strategy is not cost effective.  The fair value of the equity investments publicly traded on the ASX was $29.75 
million as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $36.81 million).  The fair value of the equity investments publicly traded on the NZX was $17.09 
million as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $19.65 million).  

Sensitivity Analysis 

As at 30 June 2018, if equity prices had been 10% higher or 10% lower, with all other variables held constant, post tax profit and other 
comprehensive income would have been affected as follows:

The movements in post tax profit are due to changes in the fair value of listed shares held for trading.  The movements in other 
comprehensive income are due to changes in the fair value of listed shares available for sale.   

 (c)  Credit Risk 

Credit risk refers to the loss that the consolidated entity would incur if a debtor or other counterparty fails to perform under its 
contractual obligations.  

Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the consolidated entity, which comprise receivables from franchisees, trade and non-
trade debts receivables, consumer finance loans and finance lease receivables.  The consolidated entity’s exposure to credit risk arises 
from potential default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets.  

The consolidated entity’s policies to limit its exposure to credit risks are as follows: 
 
 

The Franchisor constantly monitors and evaluates the financial position of each franchisee; 
Conducting appropriate due diligence on counterparties before entering into an arrangement with them.  It is the consolidated 
entity’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures including an 
assessment of their independent credit rating, financial position, past experience and industry reputation.  Risk limits are set for 
each individual customer in accordance with parameters set by the Board.  These risk limits are regularly monitored; and 
Non-trade debts receivable are subject to regular monitoring and/or periodic impairment testing to ensure that they are 
recoverable. 
Finance lease receivables are secured by assets with a value equal to, or in excess of, the counterparties’ obligation to the 
consolidated entity. 

 

 

The consolidated entity minimises concentrations of credit risk by undertaking transactions with a large number of debtors in various 
countries and industries.  In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis.  

The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-
ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.  

The table below represents the financial assets of the consolidated entity by geographic location displaying the  concentration of 
credit risk for each location as at balance date:

(d) 

Liquidity Risk 

Liquidity risk includes the risk that, as a result of the consolidated entity’s operational liquidity requirements: 
 
 
 

the consolidated entity will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction on the due date; 
the consolidated entity will be forced to sell financial assets at a value which is less than what they are worth; or 
the consolidated entity may be unable to settle or recover a financial asset at all. 

To help reduce these risks, the consolidated entity: 
 
  maintains instruments that are tradeable in highly liquid markets.  

has readily accessible standby facilities and other funding arrangements in place; and 

The Board reviews this exposure on a monthly basis from a projected 12-month cash flow forecast, listing of banking facilities, 
explanations of variances from the prior month reports and current funding positions of the overseas controlled entities provided by 
finance personnel. 

The following table details the consolidated entity’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial assets and financial liabilities.  
The financial assets have been disclosed based on the undiscounted contractual maturities of the financial assets including interest 
that will be earned on those assets.  The financial liabilities have been disclosed based on the undiscounted cash flows of the 
financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the consolidated entity can be required to pay.

(e) 

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities   

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows: 
 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables from franchisees, trade and other receivables, other financial 
assets, trade and other payables and interest-bearing loans and borrowings are reasonable approximations of fair value.  
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded on active liquid 
markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices.  
The fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance 
with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices from observable current market 
transactions.  
The consolidated entity enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, particularly financial 
institutions with investment grade credit ratings.  Forward currency contracts are valued using valuation techniques which 
employs the use of market observable inputs. 

 

 

 

The consolidated entity uses various methods in estimating the fair value of financial instruments.  The methods comprise: 
Level 1 – the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets. 
Level 2 – the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or 
liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). 
Level 3 – the fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.  

The fair value of the financial instruments as well as the methods used to estimate the fair value are summarised in the table below.

Quoted market price represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices on active markets as at the reporting date without 
any deduction for transaction costs. The fair value of the listed equity investments are based on quoted market prices and are 
included in level 1. 

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques.  Forward 
currency contracts are measured using quoted forward exchange rates.  These instruments are included in level 2.

35.  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued) 

(f) 

Capital Risk Management Policy 

When managing capital, the objective is to create long-term sustainable value for shareholders and avoid adverse short-term 
decision making, whilst maintaining optimal returns to shareholders and benefits to other stakeholders.  The aim is to maintain a 
capital structure utilising the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.  

The consolidated entity is constantly adjusting the capital structure to take advantage of favourable costs of capital or high returns 
on assets.  As the market is constantly changing, the consolidated entity may change the amount of dividends to be paid to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

The capital structure of the consolidated entity consists of debt, which includes the interest-bearing loans and borrowings disclosed 
in Note 18 and 21, cash and cash equivalents disclosed in Note 28(a) and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, 
comprising ordinary shares, reserves and retained profits as disclosed in Notes 24, 25 and 26 respectively.  None of the consolidated 
entity’s entities are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.  

Capital management is monitored through the net debt to equity ratio.  The target for the consolidated entity’s net debt to equity 
ratio is a tolerance level of up to 50%.  The net debt to equity ratio as at 30 June 2018 and 30 June 2017 were as follows:

Hedging Instruments 

The following table details the derivative hedging instruments as at balance date.  The fair value of a hedging derivative is classified 
as a non-current asset or liability if the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months and as a current asset or 
liability if the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months.

These contracts are fair valued by comparing the contracted rate to the market rates at balance date.  All movements in fair value 
are recognised in profit or loss in the period they occur.  The net fair value losses on forward currency contracts during the year 
ended 30 June 2018 was $0.04 million for the consolidated entity (2017: $0.01 million).  

(b) 

Forward currency contracts – cash flow hedges 

The consolidated entity purchases inventories from various overseas countries.  As such, the consolidated entity is exposed to 
foreign exchange risk from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to: 
 
 

United States dollars; and 
Euro. 

In order to protect against exchange rate movements and to manage the inventory costing process, the consolidated entity has 
entered into forward currency contracts to purchase US dollars and Euro.  These contracts are hedging highly probable forecasted 
purchases and they are timed to mature when payments are scheduled to be made.  The following table details the forward 
currency contracts outstanding as at reporting date:

Forward currency contracts – cash flow hedges (continued) 
(b) 

The forward currency contracts are considered to be highly effective hedges as they are matched against forecast   
inventory purchases and firm committed invoice payments for inventory purchases.  During the year ended 30 June 2018, the 
hedges were 100% effective (2017: 100% effective), therefore the gain or loss on the contracts attributable to the hedged risk is 
taken directly to other comprehensive income.  When the inventory is delivered the amount recognised in equity is adjusted to the 
inventory account in the statement of financial position.

(a)  This joint venture has not been consolidated as the consolidated entity does not have control over operating and financing 

decisions and all joint venture parties participate equally in decision making. 

(b)  A number of wholly-owned subsidiaries of Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (“HNHL”) have entered into joint ventures with an 
unrelated party to provide mining camp accommodation.  The respective joint ventures have been granted finance facilities as 
follows:  

(i) 
(ii) 

a finance facility from ANZ for the amount of $5.15 million plus interest and costs, with a maturity date of 14 June 2019.   
finance facilities from Network Consumer Finance Pty Limited (“NCF”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of HNHL, for the amount 
of $35.05 million plus interest and costs, subject to bi-annual review.  

(c)  The consolidated entity, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, has a 50% interest in KEH Partnership Pty Limited, a retail joint 
venture in Australia.  The primary business of the KEH Partnership retail joint venture is the retail sale of school apparel and 
educational goods through the brand name The School Locker.  The ‘Big Buys by Harvey Norman®‘ business was closed during 
the second half of the 2018 financial year.  

The consolidated entity has a commercial loan receivable from the KEH Partnership retail joint venture totalling $60.96 million as 
at 30 June 2018 (Jun 2017: $73.60 million).  The commercial loan was used to assist with the working capital of the retail joint 
venture.  An impairment assessment was conducted resulting in the recognition of an expense of $16.92 million (June 2017: 
$18.41 million) in the 2018 financial year as disclosed in Note 4. Expenses. 

The present value of future cash flows as at 30 June 2018 was assessed for a five-year period, based on financial budgets and 
assets held as security for the loan.  The effective interest rate of 7.5% was applied to the cash flow projections.  Cash flow 
projections were limited to five years.  Each of the key assumptions in the impairment assessment is subject to judgement 
including the future trading performance of the retail joint venture.  Judgement has been applied based on available information 
to assess the recoverable amount of the non-trade receivables as at balance date. 

(d)  HNM Galaxy Pty Limited, acting in its capacity as trustee of the HNM Galaxy Unit Trust (HN JV Entity), holds 49.9% of the issued 

shares in Coomboona Holdings Pty Limited.  Eternal Sound Limited, acting in its capacity as trustee for the AAA Settlement Trust 
(Eternal Sound JV Entity), holds 50.1% of the issued shares in Coomboona Holdings Pty Limited.  Coomboona Holdings Pty 
Limited holds all of the issued shares in companies which carry on the business of dairy farm operations, land ownership and a 
pedigree breeding and genetics division in Northern Victoria (Coomboona JV).  The 49.9% interest of the consolidated entity in 
the Coomboona JV is equity-accounted.  The Coomboona JV commenced trading in September 2015 and the equity-accounted 
trading losses were $4.57 million for the 2018 financial year compared to equity-accounted trading losses of $5.95 million for the 
previous corresponding year.  Refer to further information provided on Page 21 regarding the Other Segment.

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Harvey Norman 
Holdings Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (the Company) and its 
subsidiaries (collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position 
as at 30 June 2018, the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive 
income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the 
year then ended, notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting 
policies, and the directors' declaration. 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001, including: 

a) 

giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 
2018 and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and 

b) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial 
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor 
independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the 
Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional 
Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also 
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 
for our opinion. 

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of 
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide 
a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit 
addressed the matter is provided in that context. 

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 
Financial Report section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit 
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of 
material misstatement of the financial report. The results of our audit procedures, including the 
procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the 
accompanying financial report.

1.  Assessment of control for the purposes of consolidation 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The Group operates a franchise business model 
in Australia.  There is significant judgement 
involved in the Group’s determination as to 
whether it has control over the store franchisees 
and therefore should consolidate their results.  

Our audit procedures included the following:  

•  Assessed the judgements and conclusions 
reached by the Directors that store 
franchisees are not controlled. 
•  In conjunction with our International 

Given the significance of the judgment involved 
in the assessment and importance of this 
conclusion to the presentation of the financial 
statements this was considered to be a key audit 
matter. 

Note 1(d) and Note 1(e)(ii)(a) describes the 
accounting policies in relation to the basis of 
consolidation and control assessment 
considerations. 

Financial Reporting Standards specialists, we 
considered the application of Australian 
Accounting Standard AASB10 Consolidated 
Financial Statements, in particular the 
criteria relating to control, in the context of 
the franchise agreements and how these 
arrangements operate in practice.  In 
particular the following areas were 
considered: 

- 

- 

- 

termination rights available to the 
Group; 
Financial assistance provided to 
franchisees; and 
Inventory purchasing arrangements 
available to franchisees.  
•  Enquired of the Directors and their external 
lawyers as to whether any changes were 
made during the year to the standard 
franchise agreements used by the Group, or 
the way in which the franchisees and the 
Group interact in practice.  

•  Confirmed the results of these discussions by 
reviewing current agreements between 
franchisees and the Group.  

•  Considered any changes that may impact the 
control assessment made by the Directors. 
•  Considered the legal application of current 
franchise agreements with the Group’s 
external lawyers. 

•  Enquired of a sample of franchisees to 
confirm our understanding of how the 
current franchise agreements operate in 
practice.

2.  Recoverability of Receivables from Franchisees 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Receivables from franchisees are significant to
the Group, representing 11.9% of total assets at
30 June 2018.

Note 7(a) describes the nature of the balances 
receivable from franchisees, while Note 1(x) 
outlines the accounting policy in relation to loans 
and receivables. 

The assessment of the recoverability of 
franchisee receivables was a key audit matter 
given the value of the balance and the 
judgements exercised by the Group in making 
this assessment. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  Considered the Group’s assessment of the 

recoverability of receivables from individual 
franchisees. 

•  We selected a sample of franchisee loan 

receivables and obtained confirmation from 
the franchisees that they acknowledge the 
amounts owing at year end. 

•  We reviewed a sample of General Security 
Deeds between the franchisees and the 
Group that provides the Group with security 
over the assets of franchisees.  

•  We considered the value of assets provided 

as security by each of the franchisees against 
each franchisee receivable balance.  

•  Enquired of management and considered any 
evidence arising post year end of adverse 
performance of the franchisees, which could 
impact the recoverability of receivables from 
franchisees.  

•  We considered the adequacy of the 

disclosures included in Note 7(a) and Note 1 
to the financial statements.

3.  Valuation of investment properties and owner-occupied properties  

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Our audit procedures included the following:
•  We assessed the Group’s accounting policies
with respect to investment properties and
owner-occupied properties for compliance with
the relevant Australian Accounting Standards.
•  We assessed whether we could rely on the work

of those responsible for the Directors’
valuations and the work of the independent
valuation experts by considering their
competence, capabilities and objectivity.
•  We selected a sample of the property valuations
performed by both independent valuation
experts and the Directors and assessed the
reasonableness of the key assumptions (as
disclosed in Note 14 and Note 15) used in the
valuations with reference to external market
evidence.  This work included the involvement of
Ernst & Young real estate valuation specialists in
its execution.

•  We considered the adequacy of the disclosures
included in Note 1, Note 14 and Note 15 of the
financial report.

Investment properties and owner occupied 
properties (properties) represent 62.5% of the 
total assets as at 30 June 2018.  

Investment properties are carried at fair value 
with changes in fair value recognised in the 
income statement.   Note 1(vii) and Note 15 of 
the financial report, describes the basis upon 
which fair value has been determined.  

Owner-occupied properties, represented as Land 
and Buildings, are carried at fair value, with 
changes in fair value recognised in equity. Note 
1(v) and Note 14 of the financial report, 
describes the basis upon which fair value has 
been determined.  

The Group engages independent external 
valuation experts to conduct valuations of each 
property at least once every three years. 
Directors’ valuations are performed where the 
Group identifies a material change in the fair 
value of properties not selected for external 
valuation may have occurred during the year.   

The valuation of properties was considered a key 
audit matter given: 
• 

the value of the properties relative to total 
assets of the Group; 

• 

• 

• 

the judgement exercised by the Group in 
selecting the sample of properties subject to 
internal valuations during the period; 

judgements exercised by both independent 
valuation specialists and the Directors in 
determining fair value; and 

by their nature, the use of Directors’ 
valuations.

4.  Recoverability of Non-trade Receivables from Related Entities 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Included in Notes 7 and 12 to the financial 
statements are non-trade amounts owing from 
related entities (including joint ventures and joint 
venture partners) and associated provisions for 
doubtful debts. 

We considered this to be a key audit matter due 
to the judgements involved in considering 
recoverability and the adequacy of the 
associated provision for doubtful debts at 30 
June 2018. 

Our audit procedures included the following: 

•  Considered the Directors’ assessment of the 
recoverability of non-trade debts receivable 
from related entities. 

•  Considered the extent to which assets were 
provided as security against the carrying 
value of receivables. 

•  Assessed the value of the assets provided as 

security against the receivables.  

•  Considered the adequacy of the recorded 
provision for doubtful debts against these 
receivables.

Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the 
information included in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report, but does not include the financial report 
and our auditor’s report thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report 
and our related assurance opinion.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this 
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a 
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the 
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to 
fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease 
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is 
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that 
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an 
audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material 
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic 
decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional 
judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: 

 

 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to 
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit 
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not 
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from 
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the 
override of internal control. 

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit 
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an 
opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.  

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited 
Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation 

144 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting 
estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. 

Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting 
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to 
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going 
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in 
our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are 
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up 
to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group 
to cease to continue as a going concern.  

Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the 
disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events 
in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 

Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities 
or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are 
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely 
responsible for our audit opinion. 

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of 
the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we 
identify during our audit. 

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical 
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other 
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related 
safeguards. 

From the matters communicated to the directors, we determine those matters that were of most 
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current year and are therefore the key audit 
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public 
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter 
should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would 
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
