What are Drilling 
fluids? 

What are Solids 
Removal Units?

Drilling fl uids, or mud as they are known in the 
industry, are a key part of the drilling process for 
mining, oil and gas, water-well, horizontal directional- 
drilling and tunnelling applications.

There is a broad range of drilling fl uids, all with 
unique properties and uses, however, their principal 
role is to clean, cool and lubricate the drill-bit, return 
chips of rocks known as cuttings to the surface, and 
keep the borehole stabilised and open.

During the drilling process a continuous circulation of 
drilling fl uid is used. Fluid is pumped down the drill-
pipe, through the drill-bit and returned to the surface 
via the aperture between the drill-pipe and borehole. 
The fl uid then circulates through a shale shaker, mud 
tanks, or Imdex’s new solids removal units to remove 
the cuttings from the fl uid for re-use.

Drilling fl uids also help keep the borehole stabilised 
by forming a thin membrane on the interior surface 
known as a fi lter-cake. The pressure of the drilling 
fl uid at depth keeps the borehole from collapsing.

solids removal units (srUs) are used to eliminate 
cuttings in the drilling mud fl ow cycle. Drilling fl uid is 
circulated directly from the drill collar to the srU’s 
shaker or centrifuge feed tube, where drill solids are 
removed via a centrifuge. Cleaned drilling fl uids are 
then returned to the drill hole. 

The highly mobile units also incorporate a mixing 
chamber and weir system, which enables drilling fl uids 
to be added accurately and effi ciently.

The srUs provide signifi cant economic and 
environmental advantages as they eliminate the need 
to dig and rehabilitate traditional mud pits.  The units 
also reduce water consumption, mud usage and wear 
and tear to drilling components, while enhancing 
drilling productivity.

Fluid is pumped down the drill pipe lubricating the drill bit and returning 
cuttings to the surface

What are Downhole Survey and Core 
Orientation Instruments?

sUrvEy 
InsTrUMEnTATIon

CorE orIEnTATIon 
InsTrUMEnTs

Core orientation instruments 
are used to determine the exact 
position of a core sample in the 
ground prior to extraction. This 
process allows geoscientists to 
accurately assess the sample 
to determine the structural 
geology, which often controls 
a mineralised ore system.  By 
understanding the structural 
geology, wasted time and 
money caused by drilling in the 
wrong location or direction are 
avoided.  Core orientation is also 
particularly important during 
mine planning and development 
to avoid potential problem areas 
such as faults or slip zones. 

Downhole survey instruments 
provide geologists and drillers 
with comprehensive data, 
including azimuth and dip, which 
allows the exact trajectory of 
boreholes to be determined, 
even at thousands of metres 
below the surface.

Borehole deviations, where the 
actual path is different to the 
planned path, are common and 
costly. Geological variations, 
drilling parameters, including 
excessive or irregular thrust and 
hole design, are just some of the 
reasons why a borehole may 
deviate.  A two degree deviation 
at the surface can lead to a 35 
metre lateral displacement at 
a hole depth of 1000 metres, 
resulting in signifi cant additional 
drilling costs and loss of 
opportunity if zones of economic 
mineralisation are missed.

By surveying the borehole 
throughout the drilling process, 
deviations can be corrected and 
the likelihood of intercepting 
desired targets is signifi cantly 
enhanced.

GyrosCoPIC sUrvEy AnD 
DIrECTIonAL sTEErInG 
InsTrUMEnTs

Drilling is becoming increasingly 
complex and challenging due to 
diminishing accessible reserves, 
high exploration costs and 
environmental impact concerns.

As a result, energy companies 
are drilling deeper, for smaller 
targets, re-entering existing 
wells, and drilling multiple wells 
from a single platform.  In such 
an environment, advanced 
technology and accurate data 
are crucial to locate reserves 
effi ciently and to avoid collision 
with existing wells which can be 
catastrophic and cost millions of 
dollars to remediate.

Imdex has developed a range 
of advanced gyroscopic survey 
and directional steering 
instruments specifi cally designed 
for challenging multiple well 
environments, in areas of high 
magnetic interference, to allow 
directional drillers to accurately 
control the path of the wells.

Chairman’s Report

Dear shareholders,

on behalf of the Board, it is my pleasure to present 
the Imdex Group 2013 (Fy13) Annual report.  Fy13 
was a challenging year, due largely to a cyclical 
slowdown in the global minerals industry.  The 
challenges, although significant, are being addressed as 
the company continues to pursue its diversification 
strategy, strengthen its technologies, and expand its 
global presence.

Fy13 PErForMAnCE sUMMAry

The Company achieved total combined revenue for 
the 12 months ended 30 June 2013 (Fy13) of $249.4 
million – 11% less than last year’s record result.  
EBITA decreased by 53% to $35.2 million.

It is significant that 27% of this year’s revenue was 
generated from oil and gas (Fy12: 13%).  our oil 
& Gas Division’s year on year revenue growth is 
encouraging and given the people and infrastructure 
needed to support an expanded business are now 
in place, oil and gas is poised to make a positive and 
growing contribution to future profits.

DIvIDEnDs

The Board, through its dividend policy, seeks to strike 
a balance between the need invest in Imdex’s growth 
and diversification strategy and the desire to deliver a 
sustainable and growing dividend stream to you, our 
shareholders.  Accordingly, an interim dividend of 2.50 
cents per share and a final dividend of 0.40 cents per 
share, both fully franked, were declared in Fy13.  

sTrATEGy

Despite reduced activity within the minerals sector, 
the strength of our company allowed us to continue 
to pursue our strategy, which has been in place since 
2007.  This strategy involves:

•  Growing our global business;

• 

Expanding into new market segments, particularly 
oil and gas;

26

•  Maintaining product leadership through 
investment in product development;

• 

• 

Increasing revenue from rentals and; 

Pursuing operational efficiencies.

The acquisition of ioGlobal; the continued 
development of our products and technologies; and 
the global deployment of our solids removal units, are 
noteworthy examples of the pursuit of this strategy 
throughout the year.  

GroWInG oUr GLoBAL BUsInEss & 
EXPAnDInG InTo nEW MArkETs

The acquisition of ioGlobal, (effective 1 november 
2012,) has enhanced our product offering, and 
broadened our resource company and mining 
service provider customer bases.  IoGlobal’s highly 
differentiated technology also enhances reflex’s 
value proposition through the integration of the two 
companies’ technologies and development capabilities. 

The implementation of the diversification strategy, 
has delivered significant growth while transforming 
the company.  no longer is Imdex principally a drilling 
fluids, chemicals and downhole instrumentation 
business. It is now a truly global organisation that 
also provides leading data collection / management 
software and unique geochemical consulting services 
to its customers world-wide. 

In addition, our expansion into oil and gas continues 
to gain momentum and we are well placed to achieve 
our goal of generating 30-40% of the Group’s revenue 
from this sector.  Given the potential for further 
substantial growth, we are also confident that we will 
improve margins and hence contribution to profit, 
as we continue to build scale into this part of our 
business.

ProDUCT LEADErsHIP

our range of innovative products and services are all 
designed to enhance the efficiency and productivity 
of our customers’ operations – a factor which is 

2013 Imdex LImIted AnnuAL RepoRt  
 
Chairman’s Report

becoming increasingly important as resource and drilling 
companies focus on their margins.

our commitment to ongoing investment throughout 
industry slowdowns will ensure we retain market 
leadership and remain a leading provider of innovative 
products and technologies to the global minerals industry.

oPErATIonAL EFFICIEnCIEs

We remain a dynamic company, continuously looking for 
ways to improve our operational efficiencies.  During 
Fy13 further and ongoing gains were realised by a number 
of measures taken by the company, which are outlined in 
Bernie’s Managing Director’s report.

rEnTAL BAsED rEvEnUE  

BALAnCE sHEET sTrEnGTH

In recent years we have focused on growing our rental 
revenue through the introduction of new products and 
technologies.  In Fy13 total revenue generated by rentals 
decreased to 29% from the record level in Fy12 (32%).   
This decrease reflects the cyclical slowdown of the 
minerals market and lower rig utilisation rates and does 
not detract from the validity of this strategy.

We will continue to pursue this strategy and remain 
confident that once normal levels of activity return to the 
minerals sector, our range of srUs together with new 
products and technologies for our minerals and oil and 
gas customers, will make additional contributions to our 
total percentage of rental revenue in the future.   

Imdex continues to maintain a solid balance sheet.  As 
at 30 June 2013 net assets were $188.5 million (30 June 
2012: $168.1 million); operating cash-flow had increased 
44% to $39.0 million (Fy12: $27.1 million); and our gearing 
levels were comfortable with net debt / (net debt + 
capital) of 22.3% (Fy12: 22.3%).

our strong balance sheet supports our growth and 
diversification strategies and allows us to respond quickly 
to opportunities that arise.  It also allows us to continue 
to invest in technology and product development through 
market downturns and obtain the benefits when the 
market rebounds.

GovErnAnCE  

your Board not only strives to achieve best practice in 
all aspects of corporate governance, but  also to bring 
industry experience insight and commercial acumen 
to its deliberations.  Further information relating to 
Imdex’s corporate governance can be found in the 
Directors’ report on page 77 of the financial report. 

LookInG ForWArD To Fy14

The fundamentals affecting our markets suggest the 
coming year will again be challenging for Imdex, yet we 
remain optimistic about the medium and long-term.  As 
a strong and highly diversified company with leading 
products and technologies to enhance the efficiency 
of our customers operations, we are well placed to 
capitalise on future opportunities.

At the macro level, global economic conditions are 
expected to improve slightly overall in the coming 
financial year.  This positive outlook is a result of 
anticipated improvement in the economies of the 
United states, Japan and a stable and improving Europe. 

While lower than recent years, China is still expected 
to maintain solid growth of circa 7.8% during Fy14.  
Asia generally experienced lower rates of growth 
during the 2Hy13, however lower inflationary 
pressures and a general weakening of exchange rates 
across the region are expected to result in relatively 
strong growth over the year ahead.

Australia appears to be in a transition from a booming 
mining investment cycle to other sources of growth, 
which is likely to reduce growth in the short-term.    
Consensus within the minerals industry supports this 
view with capital and exploration expenditure forecast 
to reduce over the next 2 – 3 years.

Commodity markets are now operating in a much 
more difficult pricing environment.  The period of 
excess demand, with prices running well ahead of cost 
is ending with demand in emerging markets slowing and 
new supply entering the market. China remains the key 
driver of commodity prices, which in the short-term 
may see some negative sentiment, however no further 
significant weakening in prices is expected as Chinese 
and emerging market growth stabilises. 

Cyclical slowdowns are characteristic of the minerals 
industry and, as has occurred previously, conditions 
will improve as is suggested by the forecasts referred 

28

to above; although the coming year again promises to 
be tough.  For our part, we are continuing to focus 
on providing the very best service to our customers, 
advancing our product development, and managing 
costs to capitalise on and maintain our strong position.

Conversely the oil and gas sector remains strong.    
This sector is less cyclical in nature than the minerals 
industry and represents a significant opportunity 
for long-term growth.  As mentioned previously, 
we are continuing to make solid progress with the 
development of our oil & Gas Division.  While we 
are still in the early stages of growing this side of our 
business, it will, over time, offset the impact of future 
slowdowns that will continue to be part of the minerals 
industry.  

sTronG MAnAGEMEnT TEAM  

The sudden downturn in the minerals industry has 
underlined how fortunate we are to have a dedicated 
capable workforce led by a strong management team. 
In particular, I would like to recognise our Managing 
Director, Bernie ridgeway, Divisional Managers Gary 
Weston and Derek Loughlin, and CFo and Company 
secretary Paul Evans and thank them for their hard 
work and leadership throughout a particularly 
challenging year.  

A sincere thankyou is also due to the rest of our 
employees and management team across the world – 
not only for their dedication, initiative and hard work 
but also for contributing to the unique team spirit that 
the company is privileged to enjoy.

To my fellow Board Members I say thank you for your 
significant contributions – I look forward to working 
with you again in the coming year.

Finally, on behalf of Imdex’s Board of Directors and its 
employees, I thank all of our valued customers for their 
loyalty and you, our shareholders, for your ongoing 
support.

Managing Director’s Report

Dear shareholders,
It is my pleasure to present Imdex’s full year report 
for the 2013 financial year (Fy13).
Imdex’s performance throughout Fy13 was negatively 
affected by: 
•  The cyclical slowdown in the minerals sector;
•  Continued investment in the development of 

• 

innovative products and technologies;
Positioning for substantial growth in the oil and 
gas sector; and 

•  The extension of some development projects 

into Fy14.

Due to the cyclical nature of the minerals industry, 
in recent years Imdex has adopted diversification 
strategies including plans to grow its business globally, 
expanding into new markets – specifically oil and gas.
The company has successfully advanced these 
strategies.  Imdex is now a business which is 
increasingly diversified by geography, customer 
and commodity base, with high exposure to major 
and intermediate companies engaging in long-term 
projects, as well as a growing presence in the oil and 
gas sector offering material growth opportunities.
A good example of the benefits flowing from these 
diversification strategies is the strong revenue 
performance by Imdex’s oil & Gas Division.  The 
Division achieved record revenue for Fy13 and 
continued its trend of year-on-year revenue growth 
since Fy10.  It delivered 27% of Fy13 Group revenue, 
representing significant progress towards Imdex’s 
long-term goal of generating 30–40% of Group 
revenue from the oil & Gas Division. 
such diversification strategies do not offset cyclical 
lows in the short-term, however the company’s 
innovative products and technologies position it well, 
as customers increasingly look to reduce costs and 
improve productivity in their businesses.  
other important operational achievements in 
Fy13 include the acquisition of ioGlobal, the global 
deployment of the company’s solids removal units 
(srUs) and the continued investment in people and 
equipment to support the growth of Imdex’s oil & 
Gas Division. 

30

The following is a summary of Imdex’s Fy13 
performance:
• 

statutory revenue down 14% to $232.8 million 
(Fy12: $269.6 million);

• 

•  Combined revenue (excluding interest) down 
11% to $249.4 million (Fy12: $278.9 million);
EBITA down 53% to $35.2 million (Fy12: 
$75.2 million), including $3.0 million of one off 
restructuring costs, with the majority of these 
costs incurred in 4Q13;

•  net profit after tax (nPAT) down 58% to $19.4 

million (Fy12: $45.8 million);

•  net assets $188.5 million (30 June 2012: $168.1 

million);

•  operating cash-flow up 44% to $39.0 million 

(Fy12: $27.1 million);

•  Comfortable gearing levels with net debt/capital 

• 

• 

of 22.3% (Fy12: 22.3%);
Increased investment in product development; 
and
Final fully franked dividend of 0.40 cents per 
share, total Fy13 dividend of 2.90 cents per 
share fully franked (Fy12: 7.25 cents per share 
fully franked).

MInErALs DIvIsIon
Imdex’s Minerals Division generated revenue of 
$182.7 million, contributing 73% of the company’s 
combined full year revenue.  This represents a 
24% decrease on the record result achieved in the 
previous corresponding period (Fy12: $241.7 million).  
operational EBITA was down 50% to $43.2 million 
(Fy12: $85.7 million). The decline in both revenue and 
EBITA reflects subdued activity in the minerals sector 
as already noted.

While the introduction of some of Imdex’s 
development projects was behind internal 
expectations, significant progress was made towards 
their commercialisation.  The company continues 
to pursue market share growth in principle and 
under-penetrated mining markets, driven by Imdex’s 
innovative products and leading technologies.  such 

2013 Imdex LImIted AnnuAL RepoRtManaging Director’s Report

products and technologies are assisting Imdex’s direct 
and indirect customers reduce costs and increase 
operational efficiencies, helping them respond to 
increasingly challenging market conditions.

Key operating highlights and achievements 

Highlights and achievements for Imdex’s Minerals 
Division during Fy13 included:

•  The acquisition of ioGlobal effective 1 november 
2012.  This acquisition provides Imdex with a 
range of new and significant growth opportunities, 
enhanced technologies and product offerings;

 - The integration, including the rebranding of the 
company’s products and services under the 
rEFLEX banner is proceeding well;

•  Deployment of Imdex’s solids removal Units 
(srUs) to all principal mining regions globally;

 -

Imdex continues to receive positive feedback 
from customers, however, the slowdown in the 
minerals sector resulted in customers being 
more cautious than anticipated about adopting 
new technologies in the short-term;

•  Marketing of rEFLEX HUB (formerly ioHUB) 

and subsequent commissioning by a major global 
resource company and drilling services’ company. 
Positive customer feedback was received regarding 
the efficiency of the paperless reporting system;

oIL & GAs DIvIsIon

Imdex’s oil & Gas Division contributed 27% of 

the company’s combined revenue for the full year, 

generating $66.7 million.  This result represents a 79% 

increase on the previous corresponding period (Fy12: 

$37.2 million).  operational EBITA improved by 47% to 

a loss of $4.1 million (Fy12: loss of $7.7 million) with 

AMC oil & Gas incurring only a small component of 

this (less than $1.0 million). This EBITA loss reflected 

high non-cash depreciation, amortisation and taxation 

charges in the vEs International businesses and 

additional acquisition accounting adjustments. 

With year-on-year revenue growth reported since 
Fy10, Imdex will continue to achieve growth through 
improved performance in the vEs joint venture and 
increased fluids and equipment sales/rentals in Europe, 
the Middle East and Asia Pacific.

Key operating highlights and achievements 

Highlights and achievements for Imdex’s oil & Gas 
Division during Fy13 included:

•  record Fy13 revenue, reflecting  investment 

committed to the development of the Division in 
prior years driving growth;

•  ongoing development of Imdex’s underground 

•  Continuing strong revenues and EBITDA 

srUs;

•  Commenced development of heli-portable srUs to 
cater for geographically or logistically challenging 
sites and to meet industry demand; 

• 

• 

Increased market share in previously under-
penetrated regions;

Establishment of new manufacturing facilities 
in Brisbane, Calgary and Argentina, enhancing 
operational efficiencies by reducing lead times and 
overcoming import restrictions; and

•  reduced inventory levels reflecting the cyclical 

slowdown in the minerals sector.

• 

• 

performance by Imdex’s vEs International joint 
venture;

Investment in equipment, working capital, and 
personnel with extensive oil and gas industry 
experience to support ongoing growth in the 
business;

Establishment of a new mud plant in Bremen, 
north-western Germany.  The facility has the 
capacity to mix and manufacture oil and water 
based muds. It can also be used for settling as part 
of the waste management recycling process; 

•  Continuing growth from the coal bed methane 
industry in Australia with an increased demand 
for sump-less drilling solutions to ensure 
environmental disturbance by drilling activities is 
minimised;

•  The first explosion proof srU placed into the coal 

31

bed methane industry in Queensland, Australia; 

previously under-penetrated regions;

•  Relocation of Imdex Technology Germany to 

•  utilising Imdex’s specialist technical expertise and 

California; and 

product development capabilities;

• 

• 

Expanding Imdex’s data solution offerings to new 
and existing customers globally;

Investing further and growing Imdex’s oil and gas 
market presence to increase return on investment 
in this Division;

•  Continued support of customers as they seek to 

increase efficiencies and reduce costs; and

•  Capitalising on investment in Imdex’s oil and gas 

equipment and SRus.

Imdex is becoming a stronger, more diversified business 
to better meet the challenges presented by downturns 
in the minerals sector.   At the same time, the company 
is growing its business in the oil and gas sector and 
is continuing to develop its innovative products and 
leading technologies. Imdex aims to become the 
industry standard in providing innovative, simple to 
use technologies, which improve the effectiveness and 
efficiency of customers’ day to day operations. 

In summary I would like to thank our Executive 
Management Team, Gary Weston, Derek Loughlin and 
Paul Evans for their ongoing leadership and dedication 
to our company.  I would also like to extend my thanks 
to all of our global team for their hard work, innovation 
and expertise – it is a pleasure working with you all 
and I look forward with enthusiasm for what we can 
achieve during FY14.  I would also like to thank Imdex’s 
valued customers and shareholders for their ongoing 
support of our company.

Yours Faithfully

OuTLOOk

Imdex has been working diligently in recent years to 
diversify the business by geography, product, customer 
and commodity base.  This will enable the company 
to drive growth and also reduce its exposure to 
slowdowns, which are characteristic of the minerals 
sector.  The Oil & Gas Division delivered 27% of FY13 
revenue, representing significant progress towards 
the long term goal of generating 30-40% of combined 
revenue from oil and gas.  

While the company anticipates activity in the mining 
sector will remain subdued throughout FY14, Imdex 
is well placed to grow market share in previously  
under-penetrated regions and to benefit from the 
commercialisation of new products and technologies.  

The company has historically continued to invest in its 
growth and diversification strategies through previous 
cycles, which has positioned the business well for long-
term growth.  

The company is managing inventory and working capital 
with care and will continue to look for opportunities 
to manage costs in a measured and disciplined manner.  
Imdex is also maintaining a disciplined approach to

management;

•  Consultation with the Board, senior management 

and the leadership group in identifying the 
business risk areas;

•  Consideration of the Imdex quality assurance

The identifi cation and management of risk is central 
to delivering long-term value to Imdex’s shareholders. 
Each year, as part of the company’s annual strategic 
planning cycle, the Board reviews and considers the 
risk profi le for the entire organisation.

Imdex has also established a formal framework for 
governance of managing risk.  The principal aim of 
Imdex’s risk management governance structure is to 
enhance the system of internal control to create a 
culture of risk-informed decision making to manage 
business risks, enhance the value of shareholder 
investments, and safeguard assets.

The company is committed to an effective risk 
management process, which enables management to 
operate a risk-based approach in establishing internal 
control systems to effectively identify, mitigate and/or 
control signifi cant risks.

The risk management framework is used to provide 
governance for the identifi cation, assessment 
and management of risks. risks are rated using a 
methodology outlined in Iso 31000:2009 – risk 
Management – Principles and Guidelines.  When a risk 
is assessed as material, it is reported to the senior 
management group on a monthly basis until it is 
satisfactorily mitigated.

All employees globally are responsible for being 
aware of potential business and operational risks 
and the supporting risk management frame work 
established by the Audit, risk and Compliance

Imdex recently became one of the two industry 
services providers to join the Australian-based 
Deep Exploration Technologies Cooperative 
research Centre (DET CrC). 

The DET CrC was founded in 2010 following 
an industry roadmap developed by AMIrA 
International Ltd, an independent association of 
minerals companies, which develops, brokers and 
facilitates collaborative research projects. 

The principal focus of the DET CrC is to address 
diminishing mineral resources brought about 
by high production rates and fewer mineral 
exploration successes in recent years. Based on 
a statement released by the DET CrC, mineral 
resources constitute approximately 50% of 
Australia’s exports and 80% of production is from 
mines discovered more than 30 years ago. The DET 
CrC statement also noted: 

The vast majority of Australia’s existing mines 
are located where basement is outcropping or 
shallow. In order to ensure the future of mining 
in Australia, and indeed in all the more heavily 
explored countries of the ‘western world’, new 
technologies must be developed to explore to 
greater depths, and under cover, in the vast, 
prospective areas of deep, covered basement.

Imdex’s advanced research and development 
capabilities, together with its driving philosophy to 
increase the effectiveness of drilling programmes to 
meet the world’s future demands for minerals and 

oil and gas, align with the DET CrC’s needs and 
objectives. 

Imdex welcomes the opportunity to work 
collaboratively with like-minded individuals and 
organisations to develop innovative solutions to 
these industry challenges. similarly, DET CrC CEo 
Professor richard Hillis was enthusiastic about 
Imdex’s participation. 

“Imdex’s expertise, for example in downhole 
navigation, downhole motors and drilling muds, will 
provide significant extra horsepower towards our 
next Generation Drilling Technologies Project,” 
said Professor Hillis. 

With $120 million of cash and in-kind funding 
from the Commonwealth Government of Australia 
and its participants, the DET CrC is the world’s 
best-supported independent research initiative in 
mineral exploration. 

Imdex is contributing support through one of its 
innovative srUs installed permanently at the DET 
CrC’s test drilling site located in south Australia, 
use of its laboratory facilities, researcher hours for 
specific projects, and the supervision of two PhD 
students. 

other industry participants supporting DET CrC 
include: Anglo American, Barrick Australia, BHP 
Billliton, Boart Longyear, Goldfields, newcrest, vale 
and the Department of Primary Industries and 
regions, south Australia.

AMC rEsIDrILL

AMC oil and Gas’ unique rEsIDrILL product is 
providing signifi cant benefi ts to customers within 
the oil and gas and coal seam gas industries.

rEsIDrILL is a revolutionary and environmentally 
friendly product created by AMC’s research and 
development team. It is designed to give drilling 
fl uids non-invasive properties which reduce dynamic 
fi ltration loss, stabilises well bores and protects 
reservoirs from damage.

Commenting on rEsIDrILL’s performance,  AMC 
oil & Gas’ Manager nick santerelli said, “The   
results have been exceptional for zonal isolation 
in both oil and gas and CsG industries in diverse 
drilling environments. “

“The zonal isolation imparted by rEsIDrILL saved a 
casing string for a customer in Papua new Guinea, 
and in south East Asia another customer has seen 
zero break-out in deep pressured wells, enabling 

drilling to continue without excessive mud weight 
ups and stuck pipe.”

other examples of rEsIDrILL’s success include 
reducing skin damage from a factor of +50 to single 
and negative values for a customer in Queensland, 
and at a site in south Australia, isolating a deep 
coal seam that previously caused mud weight to be 
increased in order to control break-out.

Mr santarelli said he was delighted with the 
enhanced effi ciencies and the environmental 
solutions delivered by rEsIDrILL which were key 
drivers for AMC oil & Gas.

“Providing workable solutions is what we aim to do 
best – from developing site-specifi c HTHP drilling 
fl uid systems to assisting customers with recycling 
equipment to reduce their site footprint,” said Mr 
santarelli.

rEFLEX HUB - InCrEAsEs ProDUCTIvITy, CLIEnT rELATIonsHIP AnD 
EMPLoyEE sATIsFACTIon

Background

Implementation

The rEFLEX HUB solution was implemented on a 
signifi cant Deep Core Drilling project in Australia 
to address some considerable shortcomings 
with the existing electronic shift report system 
being used on the project.  A considerable loss in 
productivity was being experienced through report 
duplication and completion times and a high level of 
dissatisfaction was expressed by the system users.

Scope

rEFLEX HUB replaced the existing electronic shift 
report system, including the delivery of;

•  Customised Daily Drill reports (DDr) and 
safety reporting forms for use on mobile 
devices

•  Customised management reports on key kPI’s, 
for eg Consumables used by rig/shift/hole
•  Training for drilling and offi ce employees
• 

Integration with existing corporate systems.

rEFLEX HUB was implemented in a very short time 
frame, with minimal interruption to the Client’s 
personnel or operations.  The implementation 
consisted of;

1.  Customised DDR form and Management 

Reports design  
Input time required by customer: 4 hours

2.  Corporate Management System 

Integration
Input time required by customer: 30 minutes 
providing appropriate format

3.  Training

refl ex completed on-site and offi ce based 
training.
Time required by customer: 
20 minutes to complete on-site Driller training 
prior to fi rst shift commencing
1 hour to complete offi ce training

“I get an extra 4-5 hours each day that I 
can use to keep the rigs turning, that’s my 
real job.”

rEFLEX HUB ProDUCTIvITy For DrILLErs

Drillers report that the system is easy to use, saves time and 
increases accuracy, for example, depth intervals are calculated 
automatically.

•  easy to read - the large, coloured iPad screens were practical and 

easy for drillers to see on-site

•  easy to operate - completion and navigation of reports was 

quicker and easier using iPad keypads than the existing system which 
uses a curser to scroll through options

•  Accurate data - system design, including drop down options and 

automatic calculation of hole depths, made it easier to ensure data is 
submitted correctly, no time required to double check information

•  No paperwork transfer - all DDr’s were automatically transmitted 
to Drilling supervisors at the end of each shift, meaning less time 
spent by Drillers in face to face transfer of data via UsB and no 
paperwork transfer required.

Reported time saving: 0.5 hours per shift

fY2013 Snapshot

“Basically, it just makes it easier for me to 
focus on drilling and it does all the work, 
like calculating depth intervals.  Also, being 
able to copy from the previous shift is 
great, saves me more time.”  
Driller

rEFLEX HUB ProDUCTIvITy For DrILLInG sUPErvIsors

Signifi cant productivity savings were experienced by Drilling 
Supervisors, where time spent managing drilling reports 
reduced over 40%.

•  Accurate Data – minimal time required by supervisors to 

confi rm reporting errors or anomalies with Drilling crew as the 
DDr validates data as it was entered

•  No paperwork – signifi cant reduction in time required to collect 
and review paper shift reports and transfer reports to clients

•  effi cient client meetings – reports were automatically 

submitted to clients iPads saving time physically delivering daily 
reports, data was more accurate and time spent on data queries 
was signifi cantly reduced.  Client relationships improved as a 
result.

Reported time saving: 5 hours per shift

“I now have more time to actually do 
my job, 4-5 hours a day not fi lling out 
paperwork makes a big difference.”  
Drilling Supervisor

“The shift reports we now receive don’t have 
any mistakes. Even the guys who aren’t very 
good at using computers get it right, the drop 
down lists make it so simple to use.” 
Offi ce Support employee

Offi ce personnel also reported very signifi cant increases 
in productivity due to increased accuracy and the radically 
streamlined workfl ow.

•  Timely delivery of shift reports – reports were submitted 
automatically and were available immediately for processing, 
minimising delays in physical transfer of paperwork (fax or mail) 
and follow up of reports not received from previous shifts

•  Signifi cantly reduced manual processing – reports were 

recorded and submitted digitally, saving up to 80% in processing 
time for shift reports

• 

Improved readability – digital reports meant offi ce 
personnel no longer spent time following up reports where 
hand writing could not be read

Reported time savings:  80% less time processing shift reports.

Project outcomes

resource client representatives, supervisors, offi ce staff and Drilling Managers all report signifi cant 
productivity gains and extremely high levels of satisfaction since the introduction of rEFLEX HUB.

•  Signifi cant productivity improvements - time savings of over 40% for drilling managers, and up to 

80% for offi ce employees in managing and processing drilling report data.

•  Potential to improve cash fl ow - removed obstacles to facilitate reduced time between drilling 

activity and invoicing.  

• 

Improved visibility of all drilling operations - Drilling Managers had immediate visibility of 
key statistics across all drilling operations, accessed via a web browser, in any location, to enhance 
management and decision making.

•  ease of implementation - rEFLEX HUB was fully operational within 2 weeks without interruptions 

to drilling operations.

•  No proprietary hardware or software - rEFLEX HUB did not require a rollout of proprietary 
software or hardware.  The use of iPad’s provided a familiar platform to users with minimal training 
requirements. 

•  Widespread acceptance and support - rEFLEX HUB has been widely accepted by drillers, 

support staff and drilling managers with extremely positive feedback.

•  lower client invoice query rate - validation and approvals at site is more tightly controlled 

(validated at site - at the time of the shift) and has reduced the invoicing query rate by the client. 

•  Paperless system - minimises the risk of data loss and reduces printing costs.

•  easy to amend - addition of information, for example adding new components, was quickly and easily 

completed and synchronised to all iPad’s in the fl eet.

•  Support - on-site and phone support provided 24/7 was recognised as exceptional by Customer’s 

employees.  This can be provided in a global capacity by rEFLEX.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 

(f) 

Remuneration Report (audited) 

Remuneration policy for Directors and Executives 

Non Executive Directors 
The Board seeks the approval of Shareholders in relation to the aggregate of Non Executive Directorsʼ remuneration and any options 
and performance rights that may be granted to Directors. The remuneration for Non Executive Directors is reviewed from time to time, 
with due regard to current market rates. The cash remuneration of Non Executive Directors is not linked to the Companyʼs performance 
in order to preserve independence. Other than statutory superannuation, no Non Executive Director is entitled to any additional benefits 
on retirement from the Company.  

Management of the Company believes that in order to retain quality Non Executive Directors on the Board, some incentive to maintain 
their future  involvement, commitment and loyalty to the  Company is  required  on  certain occasions  over  and above  nominal Directors' 
fees. No Director received a payment during the current or prior years as consideration for agreeing to hold the relevant position.  

The  maximum  total  remuneration  payable  to  Non  Executive  Directors  was  approved  by  Shareholders  at  the  2006  Annual  General 
Meeting  and  is currently  $500,000. In the current year remuneration to Non Executive Directors totalled  $433,350, including statutory 
superannuation. The Board determines the apportionment of directorsʼ fees between each Director. 

Managing Director 
The Managing Directorʼs remuneration is determined by the Remuneration Committee with due regard to current market rates.  

The  Managing  Director  has  a  short  term  incentive  bonus  amounting  to  35%  of  his  base  remuneration  package.  Each  year  the 
Remuneration  Committee  sets  key  performance  indicators  (KPIs)  for  the  Managing  Director  to  earn  this  short  term  incentive  bonus. 
These KPIs typically include financial, strategic and risk based measures. The Remuneration Committee set these performance hurdles 
as they are significant profit and cash flow drivers which are linked to Imdexʼs increased growth and profitability and hence shareholder 
value.  Performance  is  measured  relative  to  budget  and  forecast  results  as  these  are  the  most  accurate  measures  available  against 
which to assess the achievement of set hurdles. The balance of his cash compensation package for the current year is not linked to the 
Groupʼs performance.  

From  time  to  time  options  or  performance  rights  may  be  issued  to  the  Managing  Director  as  a  long  term performance  incentive.  The 
portion  of  the  Managing  Directorʼs  compensation  package  that  comprises  options  or  performance  rights  is  linked  to  the  Companyʼs 
performance. The number of options or performance rights granted are determined with regard to current market trends. The issue of 
any such options or performance rights requires the approval of Shareholders in General Meeting. 

The Managing Director is employed under a permanent contract that provides for a 12 month termination period. No additional benefits 
above those already entitled to will become payable on termination. 

Executives and Staff 
All Executives and staff of the Company are subject to a formal annual performance review. The remuneration of Executives comprises 
a  fixed  monetary  total,  which  is  not  linked  to  the  performance  of  the  Company,  although  bonuses  related  to  the  performance  of  the 
Company  may  be  agreed  between  that  Executive  and the  Company  from  time  to  time.  The  base  component  of  Executive  salaries  is 
benchmarked  against  current  market  trends  and  is  not  linked  to  Company  performance  as  it  serves  to  attract  and  retain  suitably 
qualified  and  experienced  staff.  Performance  incentives  that  are  linked  to  Company  performance  are  used  to  reward  Executives  for 
exceptional performance that benefits the Company and Shareholders.  

Each  year  the  Remuneration  Committee  sets  the  KPIs  for  each  key  management  person.  These  KPIs  typically  include  people, 
customer, system, financial, strategic and risk based measures. The Remuneration Committee set these performance hurdles as they 
are significant profit and cash flow drivers which are linked to Imdexʼs increased growth and profitability and hence shareholder value. 
Performance is measured relative to budget and forecast results as these are the most accurate measures available against  which to 
assess the achievement of set hurdles.  No bonus is awarded where hurdles are not met. 

From time to time options or performance rights may be issued to the Executives and staff as a long term performance incentive. The 
portion of remuneration package that comprises options or performance rights is linked to the Companyʼs performance. The number of 
options  or  performance  rights  granted  are  determined  with  regard  to  current  market  trends.  The  issue  of  any  such  options  or 
performance rights requires the approval of Shareholders in General Meeting.  

All  Executives  are  employed  under  permanent  contracts.  Mr  G  E  Westonʼs  contract  provides  a  twelve  month  notice  period  upon 
termination and a twelve month termination pay out. Mr D J Loughlinʼs and Mr P A Evanʼs contracts provide a six month notice period 
upon termination  and  a six  month termination  pay  out.  No additional  benefits  above those already  entitled to  will become  payable on 
termination.

IMDEX LIMITED 
and its controlled entities 

DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 

(f) 

Remuneration Report (audited) (continued) 

(i)  Mr  B  W  Ridgeway  is  a  party  to  a  service  contract  with  Imdex  Limited,  which  sets  out  a  fixed  compensation  package,  reviewable 
annually.  The  service  contract  specifies  a  twelve  month  notice  period  in  the  event  that  the  contract  is  terminated.  If  the  contract  is 
terminated without notice,  the  notice  period  will  become payable  in  cash.  There  are  no  termination benefits  specified in  this contract. 
Additional performance incentives may be agreed between Mr Ridgeway and Imdex Limited from time to time. The Managing Directorʼs 
compensation is reviewed and determined annually by the Remuneration Committee.  

In the current year Mr Ridgeway did not earn a cash bonus as specified targets were not met. A bonus of $320,000 could have been 
earned  by Mr  Ridgeway  had  the  targets  been met. Mr  Ridgeway earned a short  term cash bonus of $110,000 in  the prior  year  upon 
achievement of specified targets. An additional $40,000 could have been earned by Mr Ridgeway had the remaining targets been met. 
Mr Ridgeway also received a loyalty bonus of $2,000 last year for 10 years of service. 

No options were granted to Mr Ridgeway in the current year or in the prior year.  

The grant of 264,818 performance rights to Mr Ridgeway in the current year was approved by the shareholders at the Annual General 
Meeting  on  20  October  2012.  The  Managing  Director  is  subject  to  two  hurdles  each  with  equal  weighting.  The  first  is  that  the  Total 
Shareholder Return (TSR) of Imdex Limited must exceed the average TSR of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement period. The 
second is that the Earnings Per Share of Imdex Limited must exceed the average EPS of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement 
period.  The  performance  hurdle in relation  to  these  performance  rights will be measured after the audit sign off of  the FY15 financial 
statements  on  or  about  August  2015.  No  value  has  therefore  been  received  by  Mr  Ridgeway  in  the  current  year.  Refer  note  33  for 
further details. 

The  grant  of  153,318  performance  rights to  Mr  Ridgeway  in  the  prior  year  was  approved  by  the  shareholders  at  the  Annual  General 
Meeting  on  20  October  2011.  The  Managing  Director  is  subject  to  two  hurdles  each  with  equal  weighting.  The  first  is  that  the  Total 
Shareholder Return (TSR) of Imdex Limited must exceed the average TSR of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement period. The 
second is that the Earnings Per Share of Imdex Limited must exceed the average EPS of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement 
period.  The  performance  hurdle in relation  to  these  performance  rights will be measured after the audit sign off of  the FY14 financial 
statements  on  or  about  August  2014.  No  value  was  therefore  received  by  Mr  Ridgeway  in  the  prior  year.  Refer  note  33  for  further 
details. 

(ii) Mr G E Weston is party to a service contract with Imdex Limited, which sets out a fixed compensation package, reviewable annually. 
The  service contract stipulates  a twelve month  notice  period  in  the  event  that the  contract  is terminated  and  a  twelve  month  pay  out 
upon  termination.  Performance  incentives  may  be  agreed  between  Mr  Weston  and  Imdex  Limited  from  time  to  time.  Additionally,  Mr 
Weston is party to a deed with Imdex Limited, granting Mr Weston the right of first refusal of Australian Mud Company Pty Ltd, a 100% 
held subsidiary of Imdex Limited, in the event that an offer is received by the directors of Imdex Limited to purchase 100% of the Imdex 
Limited shares on issue. This ʻrightʼ lapses automatically should Mr Weston no longer be employed by Imdex Limited.  

In  the  current  year  Mr Weston  did  not  earn  a  cash  bonus  as  specified  targets  were  not  met.  A  bonus  of $194,000  could  have  been 
earned  by  Mr  Weston  had  the  targets  been  met.  In  the  prior  year,  Mr  Weston  earned  a  short  term  cash  bonus  of  $62,100  on 
achievement of specified targets. An additional $144,900 could have been earned by Mr Weston had the remaining targets been met. 
Mr Weston also received a loyalty bonus of $230,000 last year for 25 years of service. 

No options were granted to Mr Weston in the current or prior year.  

Mr  Weston  was  granted  65,341  performance  rights  in  the  current  period  under  the  Performance  Rights  Plan.  It  is  expected  that  the 
hurdles  applicable  to  9,801  of  these  performance  rights  will  be  achieved  in  the  current  year.  These  9,801  performance  rights  will  be 
settled via the issue of 9,801 fully paid ordinary shares in Imdex Limited in equal one third tranches annually on or about August each 
year  starting  in August  2013  on  condition  that  Mr Weston  remains  employed  by  Imdex  Limited  at  that  time.  Refer  note  33  for  further 
details. 

Mr Weston was granted 48,611 performance rights in the prior period under the Performance Rights Plan. These 48,611 performance 
rights will be settled via the issue of 48,611 fully paid ordinary shares in Imdex Limited in equal one third tranches annually on or about 
August each year starting in August 2012 on condition that Mr Weston remains employed by Imdex Limited at that time. Refer note 33 
for further details. 

(iii)  Mr  D  J  Loughlin  is  a  party  to  a  service  contract  with  Imdex  Limited,  which  sets  out  a  fixed  compensation  package  reviewable 
annually. The service contract specifies a six month notice period in the event that the contract is terminated and a six month pay out 
upon termination. Additional performance incentives may be agreed between Mr Loughlin and Imdex Limited from time to time.  

In  the  current  year  Mr Loughlin  did  not  earn  a cash bonus as specified  targets were not  met.  A bonus  of $176,000  could  have  been 
earned  by  Mr  Loughlin  had  the  targets  been  met.  In  the  prior  year,  Mr  Loughlin  earned  a  short  term  cash  bonus  of  $143,500  on 
achievement of specified targets. An additional $28,700 could have been earned by Mr Loughlin had the remaining targets been met. Mr 
Loughlin also received a loyalty bonus of $500 last year for 5 years of service. 

No options were granted to Mr Loughlin in the current or prior year.  

Mr  Loughlin  was  granted  58,239  performance  rights  in the  current period  under  the  Performance  Rights Plan. It  is  expected  that  the 
hurdles  applicable  to  8,736  of  these  performance  rights  will  be  achieved  in  the  current  year.  These  8,736  performance  rights  will  be 
settled via the issue of 8,736 fully paid ordinary shares in Imdex Limited in equal one third tranches annually on or about August each 
year starting in August 2013 on condition that Mr Loughlin remains employed by Imdex Limited at that time. Refer note 33 for further

Bonuses granted to Directors and Key Management Personnel 

The  table  below  sets  out  the  bonuses  earned  by  Directors  and  Key  Management  Personnel  in  the  current  year  and  includes  a  long 
service bonus. Bonuses are paid on the achievement of performance criteria specific to the individual. Where performance hurdles are 
not  met, no bonus is  paid. The performance criteria  used  are chosen  by the Remuneration  Committee  annually and are  linked to the 
financial  performance  of  the  company  and  hence  shareholder  value.  Performance  criteria  typically  revolve  around  areas  of  risk 
management,  people  development,  systems  improvement  and  EBITA  performance.  Performance  criteria  are  reviewed  by  the 
Remuneration Committee against budgeted outcomes before granting bonuses.

Percentages  range  from  7.5%  to  25%.  Each  performance  right  is  to  be  satisfied  by  the  allocation/allotment  of  one  fully  paid  Imdex 
Limited  ordinary  share  for  nil  consideration  should  specified  profitability  targets  be  met.  Shares  allocated/allotted  in  satisfaction  of 
performance rights are done so in 1/3 lots on the anniversary date of the satisfaction of the specified hurdles should employment tenure 
be ongoing. The following table discloses the value of performance rights granted and expired during the year:

2013 Imdex LImIted AnnuAL RepoRtFY13 Financial ReportIMDEX LIMITED 
and its controlled entities 

DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 

(i) 

Principal Activities 

The  Groupʼs  principal  continuing  activities  during  the  course  of  the  financial  year  were  providing  drilling  fluid  products,  advanced 
downhole  instrumentation,  data  solutions  and  geo-analytics  services  to  exploration,  development  and  production  companies  in  the 
minerals and oil and gas sectors worldwide. 

(j) 

Review of Operations 

Imdexʼs performance throughout FY13 was negatively affected by:  

• 

• 

• 

• 

The cyclical slowdown in the minerals sector; 

Continued investment in the development of innovative products and technologies; 

Positioning for substantial growth in the oil and gas sector; and  

The extension of some development projects into FY14. 

Due to this cyclical nature of the minerals industry, in recent years Imdex has adopted diversification strategies including plans to grow 
its business globally, expanding into new markets – specifically oil and gas. 

The company has successfully advanced these strategies.  As reported in the 3Q13 shareholder newsletter, Imdex is now a business 
which is increasingly diversified by geography, customer and commodity base, with high exposure to major and intermediate companies 
engaging in long-term projects as well as a growing presence in the oil and gas sector offering material growth opportunities. 

An  example  of  the  benefits  flowing  from  these  diversification  strategies  is  the  strong  revenue  performance  by  Imdexʼs  Oil  &  Gas 
Division.  The Division (inclusive of share of associateʼs revenue) achieved record revenue for FY13 and continued its trend of year-on-
year revenue growth since FY10.  It delivered 27% of FY13 Group revenue, representing significant progress towards Imdexʼs long-term 
goal of generating 30–40% of revenue from the Oil & Gas Division.  

Such diversification strategies do not completely offset cyclical lows in the short-term, however the companyʼs innovative products and 
technologies position it well as customers increasingly look to reduce costs and improve productivity.   

Other important  operational  achievements in  FY13  include  the acquisition of ioGlobal, the  global  deployment of  the  companyʼs  solids 
removal units (SRUs) and the continued investment in people and equipment to support the growth of Imdexʼs Oil & Gas Division.   

The following is a summary of Imdexʼs FY13 performance: 

• 
• 

Statutory revenue down 14% to $232.8 million (FY12: $269.6 million); 

EBITA  down  53% to $35.2  million  (FY12: $75.2  million),  including $3.0 million of one off restructuring  costs, the  majority of 
which were incurred in 4Q13; 

Net profit after tax (NPAT) down 58% to $19.4 million (FY12: $45.8 million); 

Net assets $188.5 million (30 June 2012: $168.1 million); 

• 
• 
•  Operating cash-flow up 44% to $39.0 million (FY12: $27.1 million); 
• 
• 
• 

Increased investment in product development; and 

Comfortable gearing levels with net debt/equity of 22.3% (FY12: 22.3%); 

Final  fully  franked  dividend  of  0.40  cents  per  share,  total  FY13  dividend  of  2.90  cents  per  share  fully  franked  (FY12:  7.25 
cents per share fully franked). 

(k)  Dividends 

In  the  current  year  a  fully  franked  interim  dividend  of  2.50  cents  per  ordinary  share  was  paid  on  22  March  2013  to  shareholders 
registered on 8 March 2013. Since 30 June 2013 the Directors have declared a fully franked final dividend of 0.40 cents per ordinary 
share, the financial effect of which has not been reflected in this Financial Report.  

In the prior year a fully franked interim dividend of 3.25 cents per ordinary share was paid on 23 March 2012 to shareholders registered 
on  9  March  2012,  and  a  fully  franked  final  dividend  of  4.00  cents  per  ordinary  share  was  paid  on  26  October  2012  to  shareholders 
registered on 12 October 2012.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013 

(n) 

Future Developments 

Imdex has been  working  diligently  in recently years to diversify the business  by geography,  product, customer  and commodity  base.  
This  has  enabled  the  company  to  drive  growth  and  also  reduce  its  exposure  to  slowdowns  which  are  characteristic  of  the  minerals 
sector.   The  Oil  &  Gas  Division  (inclusive  of  share  of  associateʼs  revenue)  delivered  27%  of  FY13  revenue,  representing  significant 
progress towards the long term goal of generating 30-40% of combined revenue from oil and gas.   

While the company anticipates activity in the mining sector will remain subdued throughout FY14, Imdex is well placed to grow market 
share in underpenetrated regions and to benefit from the commercialisation of new products and technologies.  

The  company  has  historically  continued  to  invest  in  its  growth  and  diversification  strategies  through  previous  cycles,  which  has 
positioned the business well for long-term growth. 

The  company  is  managing  inventory  and  working  capital  with  care  and  will  continue  to  look  for  opportunities  to  manage  costs  in  a 
measured and cautious manner.  Imdex is also maintaining a disciplined approach to investments in new products and technologies.   

The oil and gas sector remains robust with significant opportunities for long-term growth.  The investments made to date in equipment, 
working capital and qualified personnel have driven strong revenue growth and Imdexʼs Oil & Gas Division is well positioned to continue 
to deliver top line growth and will be profitable in FY14. 

Key Areas of Focus and Growth Initiatives for FY14 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

Strong cost discipline and prudent working capital management; 

Continuing to increase Imdexʼs market share in previously underpenetrated regions; 

Utilising Imdexʼs specialist technical expertise and product development capabilities; 

Expanding Imdexʼs data solution offerings to new and existing customers globally; 

Investing further and growing Imdexʼs oil and gas market presence to increase return on investment in this Division;  

Continued support of customers as they seek to increase efficiencies and reduce costs; and 

Capitalise on the continued investment in oil and gas and SRUs. 

Imdex  is  becoming  a  stronger,  more  diversified  business  to  better  meet  the  challenges  presented  by  downturns  in  the 
minerals sector.   At the same time, the company is growing its business in the  oil and gas sector and is continuing to 
develop  its  innovative  products  and  leading  technologies.  Imdex  aims  to  become  the  industry  standard  in  providing 
innovative,  simple  to  use  technologies,  which  improve  the  effectiveness  and  efficiency  of  customersʼ  day  to  day 
operations.  

(o)  Environmental Regulations 

The only entity in the Group that is subject to environmental regulations is Samchem Drilling Fluids and Chemicals (Pty) Ltd. They are 
required to comply with the South African National Water Act, Act No 36 of 1998 which requires the management of effluent discharge. 
This is controlled through an effluent system. No known environmental breaches have occurred in relation to the Groupʼs operations.  

(p)  Non-audit services 

Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor are outlined in note 6 to 
the Financial Report. 

The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services, during the year, by the auditor (or by another person or firm on the 
auditorʼs behalf) is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. 

The  Directors  are  of  the  opinion  that  the  fees  paid  for  services  provided  as  disclosed  in  note  6  to  the  financial  statements  do  not 
compromise the external auditorʼs independence, based on advice received from the Audit and Compliance Committee, for the following 
reasons: 

• 

• 

All non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the 
auditor, and 

None of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in Code of Conduct APES 
110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including 
reviewing or auditing the auditorʼs own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as 
advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards. 

(q)  Auditorʼs Independence Declaration 

The auditorʼs independence declaration is included in the Annual Report immediately prior to the Audit Report.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 

ASX Governance Principles and ASX Recommendations 

The  Australian  Securities  Exchange  Corporate  Governance  Council  sets  out  best  practice  recommendations,  including  corporate 
governance practices and suggested disclosures. ASX Listing Rule 4.10.3 requires companies to disclose the extent to which they have 
complied with the ASX recommendations and to give reasons for not following them.  

Unless  otherwise  indicated  the  best  practice  recommendations  of  the  ASX  Corporate  Governance  Council,  including  corporate 
governance practices and suggested disclosures, have been adopted by the Company for the full year ended 30 June 2013. In addition, 
the  Company  has  a  Corporate  Governance  section  on  its  website:  www.imdexlimited.com  (under  the  “Investors”  heading)  which 
includes the relevant documentation suggested by the ASX Recommendations. 

The extent to which Imdex has complied with the ASX Recommendations during the year ended 30 June 2013, and the main corporate 
governance practices in place are set out below. 

Principle 1: Lay solid foundation for management and oversight 

The Board has implemented a Board Charter that formalises the functions and responsibilities of the Board. The Charter is published on 
the Companyʼs website.  

The performance of Senior Executives is measured against  prescribed  criteria as set  by the  Remuneration Committee. These criteria 
are set annually and individual performance is assessed annually. 

Principle 2: Structure the Board to add value 

Imdexʼs Board structure is consistent with the ASX Recommendations on Principle 2, with the exception that it does not have a separate 
nomination committee for the reasons detailed below.   

(i) Board Structure 

The  Board  consists  of  a  Non  Executive  Chairman,  three  Non  Executive  Directors  and  one  Executive  Director.  Of  the  five  Board 
members, four are considered independent. 

In  accordance  with the Companyʼs  Constitution the  minimum number of Directors  is three.  There  is no  maximum  number, although  it 
would be expected that the optimal number of Directors would be five or six. 

The names of the Directors of the Company in office at the date of this Statement are set out in the Directorsʼ Report and further details 
concerning the skills, experience, expertise and term of office of each Director is set out in the Directorʼs Profiles in the first section of 
the Annual Report. 

(ii) Board Independence 

Directors are  expected to bring  independent judgement to the decision making  of the  Board.   To  facilitate this,  each  Director has the 
right to seek independent legal advice at the Groupʼs expense with the prior approval of the Chairman, which may not be unreasonably 
withheld. 

In assessing Director independence, materiality has been determined from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective.  An amount 
of over 5% of turnover is considered material.  Similarly, a transaction of any amount, or a relationship, is deemed material if knowledge 
of it impacts, or may impact, the Shareholdersʼ understanding of the Directorʼs performance. The Board has conducted a review of each 
Directorʼs independence and reports as follows: 

Director 

Mr R W Kelly,  
Non Executive Chairman 

Mr B W Ridgeway,  
Managing Director 

Mr K A Dundo,  
Non Executive Director 

Mr M Lemmel,

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 

(iii) Board Nomination  

The Board does not have a separate nomination committee and, given the Companyʼs size, does not intend to form such a committee.  
However, the composition of the Board is determined using the following principles: 

• 

• 
• 

The Board should comprise a majority of independent, Non Executive Directors with a broad range of experience, skills and 
expertise; 
The Chairman of the Board should be an independent, Non Executive Director; and 
The roles of the Chairman and the Managing Director should not be exercised by the same individual. 

(iv) Procedure for the selection and appointment of new Directors to the Board 

The Company has published on its website, procedures for the selection and appointment of new Directors to the Board. The Company 
also  has  terms  and  conditions  which  govern  the  appointment  of  Non  Executive  Directors.  These  are  subject  to  the  Companyʼs 
Constitution and the Corporations Act 2001, and cover: appointment, retirement, Corporate Governance, remuneration, Board meetings, 
and Board Committees.   

The Board does not impose on Directors an arbitrary time limit on their tenure. Under the Companyʼs Constitution and the ASX Listing 
Rules however, each Director must retire by rotation within a three year period following their appointment.  In such cases, the Directorʼs 
nomination for re-election should be based on performance and the needs of the Company. 

(v) Process for evaluating the performance of the Board, its committees and individual Directors 

Board  performance  is  measured  primarily  by  means  of  monitoring  Group  profitability  and  share  price  performance  in  the  market. 
Individual Director performance is also measured by way of monitoring meeting attendance and individual contributions made at these 
meetings. 

Principle 3: Promote ethical and responsible decision-making 

Diversity 

The Company  has  adopted  a diversity  policy to guide  the  Companyʼs employees and Board in developing  and achieving  its diversity 
objectives. The Company values diversity among its workforce and seeks to employ, retain and develop employees for the long term, 
assisting in their development and the development of the culture and values of the Company. This is done by promoting the value of 
different perspectives, ideas and benefits brought by engaging employees from all available talent. 

The  Company  seeks  to  develop  a  culture  of  diversity  within  the  Company  whereby  a  mix  of  skills  and  diverse  backgrounds  are 
employed by the Company at all levels. This is achieved by: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

developing and maintaining a diverse and skilled workforce through transparent recruitment processes 

promoting an inclusive workplace culture that values and utilises the contributions of all employees backgrounds, experiences 
and perspective through improved awareness of the benefits of workforce diversity 

facilitating diversity in the workplace by developing programs that promote growth for all employees, so each employee may 
reach their full potential, and providing maximum benefit for the Company 

reviewing the demographic profile at all levels of the Company (considering any patterns or gaps that are apparent); and 

 setting measurable objectives to encourage diversity within the Company. 

The Board continues to work on objectives that will work towards achieving these goals. The objectives will be reviewed and analysed 
regularly to assist the Company to benefit from a diverse workplace.  

At 30 June 2013: 

• 

• 

of five Board positions, four (80%) were held by males, and one (20%) was held by a female. 

of seven senior executive positions, six (86%) were held by males, and one (14%) was held by a female. 

•  Of 604 full time employees, 462 (76%) were male and 142 (24%) were female.

approved by the Board.  The Charter is published on the Companyʼs website.

The  role  of  the  Committee  is  to  advise  on  the  establishment  and  maintenance  of  a  framework  of  internal  control,  risk  management 
protocols, appropriate ethical standards for the management of the Company and to approve the annual internal audit plan. It also gives 
the Board assurance regarding the quality and reliability of financial information prepared for use by the Board in determining policies for

generally undertaken at the completion of the preparation of the Annual Financial Report and involves discussions with the auditors and 
the  Group's  senior  management.  Information  concerning  the  selection  and  appointment  of  external  auditors  is  published  on  the 
Companyʼs website. 

The external  auditors  are  required to  attend the  Annual  General Meeting of  the  Company  and  be  available  to  answer questions  from 
Shareholders.

The Group has an internal audit function that reports directly to the Audit and Compliance Committee. The conduct and independence 
of the internal audit function are governed by the Internal Audit Charter which is approved by the Audit and Compliance Committee. The 
annual work plan of the internal audit function is approved annually by the Audit and Compliance Committee. 

Principle 5: Make timely and balanced disclosure 

(i) Continuous disclosure policies and procedures 

The  Company  has  developed  procedures  to  ensure  that  it  complies  with  the  disclosure  requirements  of  the  ASX  Listing  Rules.  The 
procedures are published on the Companyʼs website. 

The  procedures  set  out  who  is  responsible  for  determining  whether  information  is  of  a  type  or  nature  that  requires  disclosure,  the 
Boardʼs role in reviewing the information disclosed to ASX and the procedures for ensuring that the information is released to ASX. 

All information disclosed to the ASX is published on the Companyʼs website as soon as practicable.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

The  financial  report  is  a  general  purpose  financial  report  which  has  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  the  requirements  of  the 
Corporations  Act  2001  and  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian    Accounting 
Standards Board.  

The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Group. For the purposes of preparing the consolidated 
financial statements, the Group is a for-profit entity. 

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the directors on 16 August 2013. 

Where applicable comparative numbers have been reclassified to ensure consistent disclosure. 

(a) 

Basis of preparation 

The  Financial  Report  has  been  prepared  on  the  basis  of  historical  cost  except  for  the  revaluation  of  current  assets  held for  sale  and 
financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in 
Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted. 

The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Class Order 98/0100, dated 10 July 1998, and in accordance with that Class 
Order amounts in the financial report are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated. 

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of 
relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events is reported. 

The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the Financial Report: 

(b) 

Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash  and  cash  equivalents comprise cash on hand, cash in banks and investments in money market  instruments, net of outstanding 
bank overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position. 

(c) 

Goods and services tax 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except: 

(i) 

(ii) 

where  the  amount  of  GST  incurred  is  not  recoverable  from  the  taxation  authority,  it  is  recognised  as  part  of  the  cost  of 
acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or 

for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST. 

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

(d) 

Goodwill 

Goodwill arising in a business combination is recognised as an asset at the date that control is acquired (the acquisition date). Goodwill 
is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and 
the fair value of the acquirerʼs previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the 
identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.  

If,  after  reassessment,  the  Groupʼs  interest  in  the  fair  value  of  the  acquireeʼs  identifiable  net  assets  exceeds  the  sum  of  the 
consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirerʼs previously held 
equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain. 

Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to 
each  of the  Groupʼs cash-generating  units  expected to benefit  from the synergies  of the  combination.  Cash-generating  units to  which 
goodwill  has  been  allocated  are  tested  for  impairment  annually,  or  more  frequently  when  there  is  an  indication  that  the  unit  may  be 
impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to 
reduce  the  carrying  amount  of  any  goodwill  allocated  to  the  unit  and  then  to  the  other  assets  of  the  unit  pro-rata  on  the  basis  of  the 
carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period. 

On disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal. 

(e) 

Inventories 

Inventories  are  valued  at  the  lower  of  cost  and  net  realisable  value.  Costs,  including  an  appropriate  portion  of  fixed  and  variable 
overhead expenses, are assigned to inventory on hand by the method most appropriate to each particular class of inventory, with the 
majority being valued on a first in first out basis. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of 
completion and costs necessary to make the sale.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Property, plant and equipment 

Plant and equipment, leasehold improvements and equipment under finance lease are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and 
impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. In the event that settlement of all or part 
of the purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value as 
at the date of acquisition.  

Depreciation  is  calculated  on  a  straight  line  basis  in  order  to  write  off  the  net  cost  of  each  asset  over  its  expected  useful  life  to  its 
estimated residual value. Leasehold improvements and assets held under finance lease are depreciated over the period of the lease or 
estimated  useful  life,  whichever  is  the  shorter,  using  the  straight  line  method.  The  estimated  useful  lives,  residual  values  and 
depreciation method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes recognised on a prospective 
basis. 

The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between 
the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss. 

The annual depreciation rates used for each class of assets are as follows: 

Plant and equipment:  

10% to 50% 

Equipment rented to third parties:  

10% to 50% 

Equipment under finance lease:  

10% to 50% 

Capital  works  in  progress  in  the  course  of  construction  for  production  or  supply  purposes,  or  for  purposes  not  yet  determined,  are 
carried  at  cost,  less  any  recognised  impairment  loss.  Cost  includes  professional  fees  and,  for  qualifying  assets,  borrowing  costs 
capitalised in accordance with the Groupʼs accounting policy. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property, plant 
and equipment assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use. 

(g) 

Share-based payments 

Equity-settled share-based payments with employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity 
instrument at  the  grant  date.  Fair value is  measured by  the  use  of  the  Black-Scholes  Model, Binomial  Tree  Method  and  Monte-Carlo 
Simulation  as  appropriate.  The  expected  life  used  in  the  model  has  been  adjusted,  based  on  managementʼs  best  estimate,  for  the 
effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. 

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed over the vesting period, based on 
the Groupʼs estimate of shares that will eventually vest. 

At each reporting date, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision 
of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss over the remaining vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to the 
employee equity-settled benefits reserve.  

(h) 

Basis of consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its 
subsidiaries) (referred to as ʻthe Groupʼ in these financial statements). Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern 
the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. 

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective 
date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. 

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those 
used by other members of the Group. 

All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

(i) 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Business combinations 

Acquisitions  of subsidiaries and businesses  are accounted for using the acquisition  method.  The  consideration for each  acquisition is 
measured  at  the  aggregate  of  the  fair  values  (at  the  date  of  exchange)  of  assets  given,  liabilities  incurred  or  assumed,  and  equity 
instruments  issued  by  the  Group  in  exchange  for control  of  the  acquiree.  Acquisition-related costs  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  as 
incurred. 

Where  applicable,  the  consideration  for  the  acquisition  includes  any  asset  or  liability  resulting  from  a  contingent  consideration 
arrangement,  measured  at  its  acquisition-date  fair  value.  Subsequent  changes  in  such  fair  values  are  adjusted  against  the  cost  of 
acquisition  where  they  qualify  as  measurement  period  adjustments  (see  below).  All  other  subsequent  changes  in  the  fair  value  of 
contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability are accounted for in accordance with relevant Standards. Changes in the fair 
value of contingent consideration classified as equity are not recognised. 

Where a business combination is achieved in stages, the Groupʼs previously held interests in the acquired entity are remeasured to fair 
value at the acquisition date (i.e. the date the Group attains control) and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognised in profit or loss. 
Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in other comprehensive 
income are reclassified to profit or loss, where such treatment would be appropriate if that interest were disposed of. 

The acquireeʼs identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under AASB 3(2008) are 
recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date, except that: 

• 

• 

• 

deferred  tax  assets  or  liabilities  and  liabilities  or  assets  related  to  employee  benefit  arrangements  are  recognised  and 
measured in accordance with AASB 112 Income Taxes and AASB 119 Employee Benefits respectively; 

liabilities  or  equity  instruments  related  to  the  replacement  by  the  Group  of  an  acquireeʼs  share  based  payment  awards  are 
measured in accordance with AASB 2 Share-based Payment; and 

assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance  with AASB 5 Noncurrent Assets Held for Sale 
and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordance with that Standard. 

If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the 
Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during 
the  measurement  period (see  below),  or additional  assets  or  liabilities are  recognised,  to  reflect new  information obtained  about facts 
and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date. 

The measurement period is the period from the date of acquisition to the date the Group obtains complete information about facts and 
circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date – and is subject to a maximum of one year. 

(j) 

Investments in associates 

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. 
Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint 
control over those policies. 

The results and assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in these financial statements using the equity method of accounting, 
except  when  the  investment  is  classified  as  held  for  sale,  in  which  case  it  is  accounted  for  in  accordance  with  AASB  5  ʻNon-current 
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operationsʼ. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate is initially recognised in the 
consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Groupʼs share of the profit or loss and other 
comprehensive  income  of  the  associate.  When  the  Groupʼs  share  of  losses  of  an  associate  exceeds  the  Groupʼs  interest  in  that 
associate  (which  includes  any  long-term  interests  that,  in  substance,  form  part  of  the  Groupʼs  net  investment  in  the  associate),  the 
Group  discontinues  recognising  its  share  of  further  losses.  Additional  losses  are  recognised  only  to  the  extent  that  the  Group  has 
incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. 

Any  excess  of  the  cost  of  acquisition  over  the  Groupʼs  share  of  the  net  fair  value  of  the  identifiable  assets,  liabilities  and  contingent 
liabilities of the associate recognised at the date of acquisition is recognised as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of 
the investment. Any excess of the Groupʼs share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over 
the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 

The requirements of AASB 139 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with respect to the 
Groupʼs  investment  in  an  associate.  When  necessary,  the  entire  carrying  amount  of  the  investment  (including  goodwill)  is  tested  for 
impairment in accordance with AASB 136 ʻImpairment of Assetsʼ as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value 
in use and fair value less costs to sell) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognised forms part of the carrying amount of the 
investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with AASB 136 to the extent that the recoverable amount 
of the investment subsequently increases. 

When a group entity transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate are recognised in 
the Group's consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate that are not related to the Group.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(k) 

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. 

Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is 
deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.  

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 

(l) 

Foreign currency 

The individual financial statements of each group entity are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the 
entity  operates  (its functional currency).  For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, the results  and  financial position of 
each entity are expressed in Australian dollars, which is the functional currency of Imdex Limited, and the presentation currency for the 
consolidated financial statements. 

In  preparing  the  financial  statements  of  the  individual  entities,  transactions  in  currencies  other  than  the  entityʼs  functional  currency 
(foreign  currencies)  are  recorded  at  the  rates  of  exchange  prevailing  on  the  dates  of  the  transactions.  At  each  balance  sheet  date, 
monetary  items  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  are  retranslated  at  the  rates  prevailing  at  the  balance  sheet  date.  Non-monetary 
items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair 
value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. 

Exchange  differences  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  in  the  period  in  which  they  arise  except  for  exchange  differences  on  monetary 
items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned or likely to occur, which form part of the 
net investment in a foreign operation, and  which are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve and recognised in profit or 
loss on disposal of the net investment. 

On  consolidation,  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  Groupʼs  foreign  operations  are  translated  into  Australian  dollars  at  exchange  rates 
prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income and expense  items are translated at the average exchange  rates for the  period, unless 
exchange rates fluctuated significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. 
Exchange  differences  arising,  if  any,  are  classified  as  equity  and  transferred  to  the  Groupʼs  translation  reserve.  Such  exchange 
differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the foreign operation is disposed.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity on or after the date of transition to A-IFRS are treated 
as  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  foreign  entity  and  translated  at  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the  reporting  date.  Goodwill  arising  on 
acquisitions before the date of transition to A-IFRS is treated as an Australian dollar denominated asset. 

(m) 

Derivative financial instruments 

The  Group  enters  into  derivative  financial  instruments  to  manage  its  exposure  to  interest  rate  risk.  This  risk  is  primarily  managed 
through the use of an interest rate cap. Further details of derivative financial instruments are disclosed in the financial instruments note 
in the financial statements.  

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their 
fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss immediately. The Group has not designated 
any financial instruments as being hedge accounted.

(i)  

Embedded derivatives 

Derivatives  embedded  in  other  financial  instruments  or  other  host  contracts  are  treated  as  separate  derivatives  when  their  risks  and 
characteristics are not closely related to those of host contracts and the host contracts are not measured at fair value with changes in 
fair value recognised in profit or loss. 

(n) 

Financial assets 

All  financial  assets  are  recognised  and  derecognised  on  trade  date  where  purchase  or  sale  of  a  financial  asset  is  under  a  contract 
whose terms require delivery of the financial asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured 
at  fair  value,  net  of  transaction costs  except  for those  financial  assets classified  as  ʻat  fair  value  through  the  profit  or  lossʼ  which  are 
initially measured at fair value.  

Financial  assets  are  classified  into  the  following  specified  categories:  financial  assets  ʻat  fair  value  through  profit  or  lossʼ,  ʻheld-to-
maturityʼ investments, ʻcurrent assets held for saleʼ,  ʻavailable-for-saleʼ financial assets, and ʻloans and receivablesʼ. The classification 
depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. 

(i)  

Effective interest method 

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the 
relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of 
the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.  

Income is recognised on an effective interest rate basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets ʻat fair value through profit 
or lossʼ.

(n) 

Financial assets (continued) 

 (ii) 

Held-to-maturity investments 

Bills of exchange and debentures with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity dates where the Group has the positive intent 
and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity investments. Held-to-maturity investments are recorded at amortised cost 
using the effective interest method less impairment, with revenue recognised on an effective yield basis. 

(iii) 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 

Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss where the financial asset: 

• 
• 

• 

Has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near future; 
Is a part of an identified portfolio of financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern 
of short-term profit-taking; or 
Is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument. 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in profit or loss. The 
net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset.  

(iv) 

Available-for-sale financial assets 

Available-for-sale  assets  are  stated  at  fair  value.  Gains  and  losses  arising  from  changes  in  fair  value  are  recognised  directly  in  the 
investments revaluation reserve with the exception of impairment losses, interest calculated using the effective interest rate method and 
foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary assets which are recognised directly in profit or loss. Where the investment is disposed 
of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in the investments revaluation reserve is included 
in profit or loss for the period. The fair value of available-for-sale monetary assets held in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign 
currency and translated at the spot rate at reporting date. The change in fair value attributable to translation differences that results from 
a change in amortised cost of the asset is recognised in profit or loss, and other changes are recognised in equity. Available-for-sale 
financial assets include investments where shareholding is greater than 20% but significant influence is not exerted over the invested 
company. 

(v) 

Loans and receivables 

Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are 
classified  as  ʻloans  and  receivablesʼ.  Loans  and  receivables  are  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective  interest  rate  method 
less impairment. Interest is recognised by applying the effective interest rate. 

(vi) 

Impairment of financial assets 

Financial assets other than those at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet 
date.  Financial  assets  are  impaired  where  there  is  objective  evidence  that,  as  a  result  of  one  or  more  events that  occurred  after  the 
initial  recognition  of  the  financial  asset,  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  of  the  investment  have  been  impacted.  For  financial  assets 
carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the assetʼs carrying amount and the present value of 
estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. 

The carrying  value of  the  financial asset is  reduced  by the impairment  loss directly  for  all financial assets  with the exception  of  trade 
receivables where the carrying value is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is uncollectible, it is 
written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance 
account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. 

With the exception of available-for-sale equity instruments, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and 
the  decrease  can  be  related  objectively  to  an  event  occurring  after  the  impairment  was  recognised,  the  previously  recognised 
impairment  loss  is  reversed  through  profit  or  loss  to  the  extent  the  carrying  amount  of  the  investment  at  the  date  the  impairment  is 
reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised. 

In  respect  of  available-for-sale  instruments,  any  subsequent  increase  in  fair  value  after  an  impairment  loss  is  recognised  directly  in 
equity. 

 (vii) 

Derecognition of financial assets 

The Group  derecognises a financial  asset only  when  the  contractual  rights to the cash flows  from the asset expire,  or it transfers the 
financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Group neither transfers nor 
retains  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  and  continues  to  control  the  transferred  asset,  the  Group  recognises  its 
retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risk and 
rewards  of  ownership  of  a  transferred  financial  asset,  the  Group  continues  to  recognise  the  financial  asset  and  also  recognises  a 
collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group 

Debt and equity instruments 

Debt  and  equity  instruments  are  classified  as  either  liabilities  or  as  equity  in  accordance  with  the  substance  of  the  contractual 
arrangement. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its 
liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. 

(ii) 

Financial liabilities 

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities ʻat fair value through profit or lossʼ or other financial liabilities. 

(iii) 

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss 

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in profit or loss. 
The net gain or loss recognised through profit or loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability.  

A financial liability is held for trading if: 

• 

• 

• 

it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near future; or  

it is a part of an identified portfolio of financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern 
of short-term profit-taking; or 

it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument. 

A  financial  liability  other  than  a  financial  liability  held  for  trading  is  designated  as  ʻat  fair  value  through  profit  or  lossʼ  upon  initial 
recognition if: 

• 

• 

• 

such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; 
or 

the  financial  liability  forms  part  of  a  group  of  financial  assets  or  financial  liabilities  or  both,  which  is  managed  and  its 
performance  evaluated  on  a  fair  value  basis,  in  accordance  with  the  Groupʼs  documented  risk  management  or  investment 
strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally or on that basis; or 

it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and AASB139 ʻFinancial Instruments: Recognition 
and Measurementʼ permits the entire combined contract (asset or liability) to be designated as ʻat fair value through profit or 
lossʼ. 

(iv) 

Other financial liabilities 

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. 

Other financial  liabilities are subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective interest  rate method,  with  interest  expense 
recognised on an effective yield basis.  

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest income over 
the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected 
life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

(i) 

Intangible assets 

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination 

All intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identified and recognised separately from goodwill where they satisfy the 
definition of an intangible  asset  and  their value can be measured reliably. Identifiable intangible  assets  comprise  intellectual  property, 
technology, contracts, customers, development costs and trade marks. These are recorded at cost less accumulated amortisation and 
impairment. Amortisation is charged on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation 
method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period. 

Estimated useful lives are as follows: 

Intellectual property  

Technology 

Contracts 

Customers 

Trade Names and Patents  

10 years 

5-7 years 

1-5 years (term of contract) 

5-6 years 

1-6 years 

Each period, the useful life of this asset is reviewed to determine  whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite 
useful life assessment for the asset. Such assets are tested for impairment in accordance with the policy stated in note 2(u).

Intangible assets (continued) 

Research and development costs 

Expenditure  on  research  activities  is  recognised  as  an  expense  in  the  period  in  which  it  is  incurred.  Where  no  internally-generated 
intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period as incurred. An intangible asset 
arising  from  development  (or  from  the  development  phase  of  an  internal  project)  is  recognised  if,  and  only  if,  all  of  the  following  are 
demonstrated: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; 

the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; 

the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; 

how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; 

the  availability  of  adequate  technical,  financial  and  other  resources  to  complete  the  development  and  to  use  or  sell  the 
intangible asset; and 

the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. 

Capitalised development costs are  stated  at cost  less accumulated amortisation  and  impairment, and are amortised  on a straight-line 
basis over their useful life of between 3 and 5 years, commencing on commercialisation of the underlying projects. 

(q) 

Taxation 

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. 

(i)  

Current tax 

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the period. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the income statement 
because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other periods and items that are never taxable or deductible. 
The Company and the Groupʼs liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by 
the end of the reporting period. 

 (ii)  

Deferred tax 

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the  carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements 
and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable 
temporary  differences.  Deferred  tax  assets  are  generally  recognised  for  all  deductible  temporary  differences  to  the  extent  that  it  is 
probable  that taxable profits  will  be  available against which those deductible temporary  differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax 
assets  and liabilities  are  not  recognised  if the temporary  difference arises from  goodwill  or  from the initial  recognition  (other  than in  a 
business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. 

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and 
interests in joint ventures, except where the Company and the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is 
probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary 
differences  associated  with  such  investments  and  interests  are  only  recognised  to  the  extent  that  it  is  probable  that  there  will  be 
sufficient  taxable  profits  against  which  to  utilise  the  benefits  of  the  temporary  differences  and  they  are  expected  to  reverse  in  the 
foreseeable future. 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer 
probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or 
the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. 
The measurement of  deferred tax liabilities  and  assets  reflects the tax consequences that  would  follow from  the  manner  in  which the 
Company and the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  when  there  is  a  legally  enforceable  right  to set  off  current  tax  assets  against current  tax 
liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company and the Group intends to settle 
its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. 

(iii) 

Current and deferred tax for the period 

Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised 
outside  profit  or  loss  (whether  in  other  comprehensive  income  or  directly  in  equity),  in  which  case  the  tax  is  also  recognised  outside 
profit or loss, or where they arise from the initial accounting for a business combination. In the case of a business combination, the tax 
effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Taxation (continued) 

Tax consolidation 

The Company  and  all its  wholly-owned  Australian  resident  entities are part of a  tax-consolidated  group under  Australian taxation  law. 
Imdex  Limited  is  the  head  entity  in  the  tax-consolidated  group.  Tax  expense/income,  deferred  tax  liabilities  and  deferred  tax  assets 
arising from temporary differences in the members of the tax-consolidated group are recognised in the separate financial statements of 
the members of the tax-consolidated group using the ʻseparate taxpayer within groupʼ approach by reference to the carrying amounts in 
the separate financial statements of each entity and the tax values applying under tax consolidation. Current tax liabilities and assets 
and  deferred  tax  assets  arising  from  unused  tax  losses  and  relevant  tax  credits  of  the  members  of  the  tax-consolidated  group  are 
recognised by the Company (as head entity in the tax-consolidated group). Due to the existence of a tax funding arrangement between 
the entities in the tax-consolidated group, amounts are recognised as payable to or receivable by the Company and each member of the 
group  in  relation  to  the  tax  contribution  amounts  paid  or  payable  between  the  parent  entity  and  the  other  members  of  the  tax-
consolidated group in accordance with the arrangement. Further information about the tax funding arrangement is detailed in note 5 to 
the financial statements. Where the tax contribution amount recognised by each member of the tax-consolidated group for a particular 
period is different to the aggregate of the current tax liability or asset and any deferred tax asset arising from unused tax losses and tax 
credit in respect of that period, the difference is recognised as a contribution from (or distribution to) equity participants. 

(r) 

Leased assets 

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to 
the lessee.  All other leases are classified as operating leases. 

(i)  

Group as Lessor 

Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease. 

(ii)  

Group as Lessee 

Assets  held  under  finance  leases  are  initially  recognised  at  their  fair  value  or,  if  lower,  at  amounts  equal  to  the  present  value  of  the 
minimum  lease  payments,  each  determined  at  the  inception  of  the  lease.  The  corresponding  liability  to  the  lessor  is  included  in  the 
consolidated statement of financial position as a finance lease obligation. 

Lease  payments  are  apportioned  between  finance  charges  and  reduction  of  the  lease  obligation so  as  to  achieve  a  constant  rate  of 
interest  on  the  remaining  balance  of  the  liability.  Finance  charges  are  charged  directly  against  income,  unless  they  are  directly 
attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Groupʼs general policy on borrowing costs. 

Finance leased assets are amortised on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. 

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic 
basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. 

(iii)  

Lease incentives 

In  the  event  that  lease  incentives  are  received  to  enter  into  operating  leases,  such  incentives  are  recognised  as  a  liability.  The 
aggregate  benefits  of  incentives  are  recognised  as  a  reduction  of  rental  expense  on  a  straight-line  basis,  except  where  another 
systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. 

(s) 

Revenue 

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. 

(i)  

Sale of goods 

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all the following conditions are satisfied: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

the Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownerships of the goods; 

the  Group  retains  neither  continuing  managerial  involvement  to  the  degree  usually  associated  with  ownership  nor  effective 
control over the goods sold; 

the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; 

it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity; and 

the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. 

(ii) 

Rendering of services 

Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. 

(iii) 

Royalties 

Royalty revenue is recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement. 

(iv) 

Dividend and interest revenue 

Dividend  revenue  from  investments  is  recognised  when  the  shareholders  right  to  receive  payment  has  been  established.  Interest 
revenue is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principle outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the 
rate  that  exactly  discounts  estimated  future  cash  receipts  through  the  expected  life  of  the  financial  asset  to  that  assetʼs  net  carrying 
amount.

Employee benefits 

Provisions 

Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave, and sick 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 Group in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date. 

(ii) 

Defined contribution plans 

Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed when incurred. 

(u) 

Impairment of other tangible and intangible assets (other than goodwill) 

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any 
indication  that  those  assets  have  suffered  an  impairment  loss.  If  any  such  indication  exists,  the  recoverable  amount  of  the  asset  is 
estimated  in  order  to  determine  the  extent  of  the  impairment  loss  (if  any).  Where  the  asset  does  not  generate  cash  flows  that  are 
independent  from  other  assets,  the  Group  estimates the  recoverable  amount  of  the  cash-generating  unit  to  which  the  asset  belongs. 
Where  a  reasonable  and  consistent  basis  of  allocation  can  be  identified,  corporate  assets  are  also  allocated  to  individual  cash-
generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent 
allocation basis can be identified. 

Intangible  assets  with  indefinite  useful  lives  and  intangible  assets  not  yet  available  for  use  are  tested  for  impairment  annually  and 
whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. 

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash 
flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of 
money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount 
of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating 
unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised 
estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that 
would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of 
an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 

(v) 

 Provisions 

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

The  amount  recognised  as  a  provision  is  the  best  estimate  of  the  consideration  required  to  settle  the  present  obligation  at  reporting 
date,  taking  into  account  the  risks  and  uncertainties  surrounding  the  obligation.  Where  a  provision  is  measured  using  the  cashflows 
estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cashflows. 

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable 
is  recognised  as  an  asset  if  it  is  virtually  certain  that  recovery  will  be  received  and  the  amount  of  the  receivable  can  be  measured 
reliably.

Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty 

In  the  application  of  the  Groupʼs  accounting  policies,  which  are  described  in  note  2,  management  is  required  to  make  judgements, 
estimates  and  assumptions  about  carrying  values  of  assets  and  liabilities  that  are  not  readily  apparent  from  other  sources.  The 
estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable 
under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the 
period in  which  the  estimate is  revised if  the  revision  affects only that period,  or  in the  period of the revision and future periods if the 
revision affects both current and future periods. 

Critical judgements in applying the entityʼs accounting policies 

Management have not made any significant critical judgements in the process of applying the Groupʼs accounting policies. 

Key sources of estimation uncertainty 

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, 
that  have  a  significant  risk  of causing  a  material  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  within  the  next  financial 
year: 

Impairment of Goodwill and Intangibles

Determining whether goodwill and intangibles are impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating 
units to which goodwill and intangibles are attributable. The value in use calculation requires the entity to estimate the future 
cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. A 
forward looking estimation of this nature is inherently uncertain. Details of the key assumptions made are contained in note 12 
(Goodwill)  and  note  13  (Intangibles).  No  impairment  losses  were  booked  in  the current  or  prior  year.  A  goodwill  amount  of 
$61.8 million and intangible assets of $5.6 million have been recognised on the face of the consolidated statement of financial 
position. 

Recognition of net deferred tax asset

A net deferred tax asset of $8.6 million has been recognised on the face of the consolidated statement of financial position. 
The  largest  component  of  this  asset  is  the  future  tax  benefit  of  depreciation  of  unrealised  profits  in  property,  plant  and 
equipment items. This tax benefit  will  be  realised progressively over  the  next  3-5  years as these assets are  depreciated or 
sold. This net asset has been raised as it is considered more likely than not that it will be realised. In making this assessment 
of likelihood a forward looking estimation of cash flows and the likelihood of business success needs to be made up to 5 years 
into the future. A forward looking estimation of this nature over 5 years is inherently uncertain. Details of deferred tax balances 
are contained in note 5. 

Fair value of options and performance rights

Options  and  performance  rights  as  detailed  in  notes  32  and  33  are  inherently  complex  to  value  due  to  their  nature  and 
relationship to the share market and its uncertainties. The Imdex Group therefore engaged valuation professionals to perform 
a  valuation.  The  models  used  by  the  valuation  professionals,  although  they  are  industry  standard  models,  are  subject  to 
limitations and uncertainties.

Tax Consolidation 

Relevance of tax consolidation to the Group 

Legislation to allow groups, comprising a parent entity and its Australian resident wholly-owned entities, to elect to consolidate and be 
treated as a single entity for income tax purposes was substantively enacted on 21 October 2002. The Company and its wholly-owned 
Australian resident  entities  are eligible to consolidate for  tax  purposes  under this legislation and have  elected  to  be  taxed  as  a single 
entity from 1 July 2003. The head entity in the tax consolidated group for the purposes of the tax consolidation system is Imdex Limited. 

Nature of tax funding arrangements and tax sharing agreements 

Entities within the tax-consolidated group have entered into a tax funding and a tax-sharing agreement with the head entity. Under the 
terms  of  this  agreement,  Imdex  Limited  and  each  of  the  entities  in  the  tax  consolidated  group  has  agreed  to  pay  a  tax  equivalent 
payment to or from the head entity, based on the net accounting profit or loss of the entity and the current tax rate. Such amounts are 
reflected in amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group. 

The tax sharing agreement entered into between members of the tax consolidated group provides for the determination of the allocation 
of income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations or if an entity should leave the 
tax consolidated group. The effect of the tax sharing agreement is that each member's liability for tax payable by the tax consolidated 
group is limited to the amount payable by the head entity under the tax funding arrangement. 

The amount of contribution or distribution relating to tax consolidation in the current and prior year amounted to nil.

The above analysis shows debtors that are past due at
the end of the reporting date where no

The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances.

(ii) Movement in the allowance for doubtful debts

Amounts written off during the year

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

(i) Comprises 251,908,446 fully paid ordinary shares in Sino Gas and Energy Holdings Ltd (SEH) held at fair value (2012: 251,908,446 
shares).  This  amounts  to  20.11%  of  the  issued  share  capital  of  SEH  (2012:  22.48%).  The  shareholding  percentage  dropped  in  the 
current year due to additional shares being issued by SEH to third parties. 

Despite holding more than 20% of the issued share capital of SEH, the Company does not have significant influence over SEH in the 
current  or  prior  periods  due  to  its  limited  Board  representation  and  minimal  involvement  in  strategic  planning  and  day  to  day 
management.  This  asset  is  non-core  and  accordingly,  this  investment  has  been  classified  as  a  Financial  Asset  Held  for  Sale  and  is 
carried at fair value.

(i)  Goodwill arose during the period on the acquisition of ioGlobal by Imdex Limited - (Refer to note 25(a)). The goodwill of ioGlobal 
forms part  of the  Reflex CGU  since  its products have been  rebranded as “Reflex”  and  are  now  being sold through the existing 
Reflex sales staff and infrastructure. ioGlobal has been assessed for impairment as part of the Reflex CGU.  

(ii)  Goodwill arose during the prior year on the acquisition of Australian Drilling Specialties Pty Ltd (ADS) by Imdex Limited - (Refer to 
note 25(b)). The goodwill of ADS forms part of the AMC CGU since it is a vertical integration with AMC and has been assessed 
for impairment as part of the AMC CGU.  

(iii)  Goodwill  arose in  the  prior year on the acquisition  of System Mud  Industria  e Comercio  Ltda (System Mud) by  Imdex Limited - 
(Refer to note 25(c)). System Mud is considered to be a separate cash generating unit since it operates independently from other 
Imdex operations in a separate geographical area being the Latin America region concentrating on the supply of drilling fluids and 
chemical supplies. A true up of System Mud goodwill of $0.3 million occurred in the current year.

Goodwill (continued) 

At  30 June  2013,  the following  cash-generating  units  (CGUs)  were  identified  as  requiring  a  test  of  impairment  of  goodwill  at  balance 
date, with no write down required.  

The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations for those CGUs tested were as follows: 

CGU 

Forecasted revenue growth 

Discount 
Rate (post 
tax) 

Forecasted net margins 

Expected exchange rate 
fluctuations 

AMC 
(including 
Fluidstar, 
Ecospin, ADS 
and Mud 
Systems)

AMC 
Germany  

Reflex / 
Imdex 
Technology/ 
ioGlobal 

South 
America 
(formerly 
System Mud) 

Revenue  growth  has  been  forecast  in 
line  with  the  expected  rate  of  growth 
related  to  the  specific  growth  initiatives 
around  SRUʼs  and  equipment,  and  the 
expected rate of recovery of the mining 
and  mineral  exploration  market 
in 
Australia.  Projections  are  based  on 
financial  budgets  approved  by 
the 
directors  covering  a  one-year  period. 
Cash flows beyond FY14 for a period of 
four  years  have  been  extrapolated 
using  a  steady  5%  per  annum  growth 
rate,  and  a  growth  rate  of  0%  per 
annum beyond FY18. 

Revenue  has  been 
forecast  using 
contracted  and  committed  revenues  as 
a  base  on  which  a  moderate  growth 
projection  has  been  based.  Projections 
are  based  on 
financial  budgets 
approved  by  the  directors  covering  a 
one-year  period.  Cash  flows  beyond 
FY14  for  a  period  of  four  years  have 
been  extrapolated  using  a  steady  5% 
per  annum  growth  rate,  and  a  growth 
rate of 0% per annum beyond FY18. 

Revenue  growth  has  been  forecast  in 
line  with  the  expected  rate  of  recovery 
of  the  mining  and  mineral  exploration 
industry  in  Australia.  Projections  are 
based on financial budgets approved by 
the  directors  covering  a  one-year 
period.  Cash  flows  beyond  FY14  for  a 
four  years  have  been 
period  of 
extrapolated  using  a  steady  5%  per 
annum  growth  rate,  and  a  growth  rate 
of 0% per annum beyond FY18. 

Revenue  growth  has  been  forecast  in 
line  with  the  expected  rate  of  growth 
related  to  the  specific  growth  initiatives 
around SRUʼs, and the expected rate of 
recovery  of  the  mining  and  mineral 
exploration  markets  of  South  and  Latin 
America.  Projections  are  based  on 
financial  budgets  approved  by 
the 
directors  covering  a  one-year  period. 
Cash flows beyond FY14 for a period of 
four  years  have  been  extrapolated 
using  a  steady  5%  per  annum  growth 
rate,  and  a  growth  rate  of  0%  per 
annum beyond FY18. 

7.26% 
(2012: 7.42%) 

6.38%  
(2012: 6.72%) 

8.81% 
(2012: 9.38%) 

Net  margins  have  been 
forecasted  using  current 
period  actuals  as  a  base 
operational 
on  which 
improvements 
and 
economies  of  scale  are 
expected  to  be  gained, 
the 
particularly 
from 
of 
introduction 
a 
reporting 
regionalised 
structure 
and 
improved/expanded 
product offerings. 

Exchange rate fluctuation 
expectations have been 
built into the forecasted 
numbers based on FY14 
forecasted exchange rates 
published by major local 
and international lending 
institutions. Discounted 
cash flow outcomes using 
these rates are not 
materially different from 
having used current spot 
rates.

(i)  On 7 October 2011 a clubbed banking facility involving Westpac Banking Corporation and HSBC was put in place. This facility replaced 
commercial bills and Canadian bank loans in place at that date. At inception this facility allowed the Imdex Group access to debt of $50 
million  split  equally  between  the  two  club  participants.  Westpac  Banking  Corporation  provided  AUD  denominated  borrowings  in 
Australia while HSBC provided CAD and USD denominated borrowings in Chile, South Africa, Canada and Australia. This facility was 
extended  from $50 million to $75 million on 19 January  2012 and on 21 September 2012 Westpac Banking  Corporation provided  an 
additional capex facility of US$13.4 million to allow for Imdexʼs expansion into the solids removal market and $4.8 million to assist in the 
funding of the ioGlobal acquisition (originally US$20 million). 

As at 30 June 2013: 

•  AUD  denominated  borrowings  bear  interest  at  floating  rates  (currently  5.46%  per  annum).  These  borrowings  are  repayable  in 

equal monthly installments of $0.6 million to 31 October 2014 on which date the balance is payable.  

•  USD denominated borrowings bear interest at floating rates (currently between 2.04% and 4.18% per annum depending on the 
borrowing country). Included in these borrowings are US$8.8 million drawn under the Westpac Banking Corporation capex facility 
which  has  a  limit  of  US$13.4  million.    The  balance  of  USD  borrowings  are  repayable  in  equal  monthly  installments  of  US$0.4 
million to 31 October 2014 on which date the balance is repayable. 

•  CAD  denominated  borrowings  bear  interest  at  floating  rates  (currently  4.50%  per  annum).  These  borrowings  are  repayable  in 

equal monthly installments of CAD$0.2 million to 31 October 2014 on which date the balance is repayable. 

The club facility is secured by the assets of entities in Australia, Canada, South Africa and Chile.  

(ii)  Hire  purchase  liabilities  are  secured  over  the  assets  to  which  they  relate,  the  carrying  value  of  which  exceeds  the  value  of  the  hire 
purchase liability. The Group does not hold title to the equipment under the hire purchase pledged as security. The weighted average 
interest rate applicable to these liabilities is 6.52% (2012: 9.67%).

Changes to the Corporations Law abolished the authorised capital and par value concept in relation to share capital from 1 July 1998. Therefore, the
Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital and issued shares do not have a par value.

(ii) Share options granted under the staff option plan

No options were granted under the staff option plan in the current or prior year.

In accordance with the provisions of the staff option plan, as at 30 June 2013, executives, directors and staff have no options over ordinary shares.
As at 30 June 2012, executives, directors and staff had options over 3,893,333 ordinary shares (all of which had vested), in aggregate. These options
expired over a range of dates up to March 2013. Share options granted under the employee share option plan carry no rights to dividends and no
voting rights.

Details of the Staff Option Plan can be found in note 32.

(iii) Shares issued in satisfaction of Performance Rights

No shares were issued in the current or prior years in satisfaction of performance rights. Performance rights obligations were settled by the purchase
of existing shares on market. More information on the performance rights plan can be found in note 33.

Acquisition of Businesses 

(a ) Acquisition of e ntity - ioGloba l Pty Ltd a nd ioAna lytics Pty Ltd

W ith effect from 1 November 2012, Imdex Limited acquired 100% of the issued share capital of ioGlobal Pty Ltd and ioAnalytics Pty Ltd
(together ioGlobal). ioGlobal provides innovative cloud-based data management solutions for the mining and mineral exploration industries. The
provisional numbers presented below have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting.

(i) Goodwill arose in the business combination because the cost of the combination included a control premium paid to acquire ioGlobal. In
addition, the consideration paid for the combination effectively included amounts in relation to the benefit of expected synergies, revenue
growth, future market development and the assembled workforce of ioGlobal. These benefits are not recognised separately from goodwill as the
future economic benefits arising from them cannot be reliably measured. There were no acquisition provisions created, nor were there any
contingent liabilities assumed in the acquisition.

(ii) The Consolidated Cash Flow Statement for the year ended 30 June 2013 records the payment for the acquisition of ioGlobal as $3.9 million
being the cash purchase consideration of $4.8 million paid net of the $0.9 million of cash acquired. 

(iii) Intangible assets of $1.3 million comprise the fair value of the intellectual property and know-how associated with ioGlobal. The discounted
present value of expected future cash flows on a relief from royalty method has been used to determine the fair value of this intangible asset.
This intangible asset is being amortised over its expected useful life of 5 years. Deferred tax of $0.4 million was raised on this asset.

(iv) Had the acquisition of ioGlobal been effected on 1 July 2012, the beginning of the current year, the ioGlobal financial results included in the
Imdex consolidated results would have been revenue of approximately $4.2 million with a loss of $1.0 million. The results of ioGlobal are
included in the Minerals segment. The Board considers these 'pro-forma' numbers to represent an approximate measure of the performance of
the combined group on an annualised basis and to provide a reference point for comparison in future periods.

(i) Goodwill arose in the business combination because the cost of the combination included a control premium paid to acquire System Mud. In 
addition, the consideration paid for the combination effectively included amounts in relation to the benefit of expected synergies, revenue
growth, future market development and the assembled workforce of System Mud. These benefits are not recognised separately from goodwill
as the future economic benefits arising from them cannot be reliably measured. There were no acquisition provisions created, nor were there
any contingent liabilities assumed in the acquisition. During the current year the fair value of net assets acquired was adjusted by $0.3 million
causing an equivalent change to the value of goodwill recognised.

(ii) The Consolidated Cash Flow Statement for the year ended 30 June 2012 records the acquisition of System Mud as a net cash outflow of
$2.7 million being the cash consideration of $3.3 million paid net of the $0.6 million of cash acquired.

(iii) Comprises 1,306,324 fully paid Imdex limited ordinary shares issued on settlement to the four vendors in equal proportions. These shares
were issued at the weighted average price of a fully paid Imdex Limited ordinary share for the five days leading up to settlement on 18 April
2012, being $2.94 per share.

(iv) Comprises 330,000 fully paid ordinary shares in Imdex Limited to be issued on the two year anniversary of completion (18 April 2014). The
future issue of these shares is at a guaranteed price of $3.50 per share. That is, if the share price on the two year anniversary date is below
$3.50 there is a cash top up of the difference. However, in the event that the share price reaches $3.50 at any time within that two year period,
the potential cash top up falls away. 

 (d)    Acquisition of entity - Mud Systems Pte Ltd (Mud Systems)

With effect from 1 January 2012, Imdex Limited acquired 100% of the issued share capital of Mud Systems Pte Ltd, a Singapore based 
company that is involved in the supply, manufacture and rental of equipment, predominately in the oil and gas industry.  The purchase 
consideration for the acquisition was 500,000 fully paid ordinary shares of Imdex Limited issued to the vendor on 8 May 2012 at a fair 
value of $2.40 per share. The key reason for the purchase of Mud Systems was to access the exclusive supply agreement and ongoing 
relationship with the manufacturer of the centrifuges used in Solid Removal Units (SRUʼs). The excess of fair value of consideration paid 
over fair value of net assets ($0.9 million) has been allocated in full to intangible assets.

Investment in Associates 

On 1 July 2011, Imdex Limited acquired 50% of the issued share capital of the joint venture (JV), VES International (VES)
(formerly DHS Services), in exchange for granting an exclusive global licence over its oil and gas surveying instruments and
technology. VES is registered in the British Virgin Islands and operates an oil and gas services business based in Dubai
using the technology licensed to it by Imdex Limited. At that time Imdex Limited accounted for its investment in VES as an
associate as it was deemed to have a significant influence over but not control of VES since it held 50% of the issued capital
but only 2 out of 5 board positions.

Effective 1 January 2012 the JV purchased the business of Vaughn Energy Services, a US based oil & gas services provider,
for US$100 million. To fund the purchase the JV increased its share capital. On 19 January 2012 Imdex Limited raised
additional debt of $25 million from its club banking facility and applied approximately US$22.5 million of this debt to purchase
additional shares in the JV. Following this transaction Imdex Limitedʼs shareholding in the JV decreased from 50% to 30%.
The numbers presented below in relation to the acquisition of Vaughn Energy Services have been accounted for using the
acquisition method of accounting.

Financial Instruments 

(a) Capital Risk Management 

The Group  manages  its capital to ensure  that entities in the Group  will  be  able  to  continue as a  going concern  while  maximising the 
return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. 

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which includes the borrowings disclosed in note 15, cash and cash equivalents and 
equity  attributable to equity holders  of the  parent, comprising  issued  capital,  reserves  and  retained  earnings  as disclosed  in notes 17 
and 18. Management and the Board review the capital structure regularly. The treasury function presents regular updates to the Board. 
As a part of these reviews management considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Based on the 
outcome of these reviews the Group will balance its overall capital structure through payment of dividends and issue of new shares as 
well as the issue of new debt or repayment of existing debt. The Board does not have a specific optimum gearing target other than to 
maintain a competitive weighted average cost of capital. 

The Groupʼs overall capital management strategy remains unchanged from prior years.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT 

29 

Financial Instruments (continued) 

(d) Financial risk management objectives 

The Groupʼs  treasury  function provides  services to the  business, co-ordinates  access  to domestic  and  international financial markets, 
monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyse exposures 
by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk and fair value interest rate risk), credit risk, 
liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk. 

The Group seeks to minimise the effects of these risks by using natural hedges where possible and derivative financial instruments to 
hedge remaining risk exposures where the benefit of the hedge outweighs the cost. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the 
Groupʼs  treasury  policies  which  are  approved  by  the Board  of  Directors.  These  policies  describe  the  Groupʼs  policies  with  respect  to 
foreign  exchange  risk,  interest  rate  risk,  credit  risk,  the  use  of  financial  derivatives  and  non-derivative  financial  instruments,  and  the 
investment of excess liquidity. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments for 
speculative purposes. There are no derivative instruments in operation at year end. 

(e) Market risk

The  Groupʼs  activities  expose  it  primarily  to  the  financial  risks  of  changes  in  foreign  currency  exchange  rates  (note  (f)  below)  and 
interest  rates  (note  (g)  below).  The  Group  monitors  its  exposure  to  these  risks  on  a  regular  basis  and  enters  into  derivative  financial 
instruments to manage these risks where appropriate. There are no derivative financial instruments in operation at year end. At a Group 
and at a company level market risk exposures are measured by sensitivity analyses and scenario modelling.  

There has been no change to the Groupʼs exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risk. 

(f) Foreign currency risk management 

The Group  undertakes certain transactions  denominated in foreign currencies,  hence  exposures  to  foreign exchange rate  fluctuations 
arise. Exchange rate exposures are managed with the use of natural hedges where possible and with the use of financial instruments 
where benefit outweighs cost within approved policy parameters. During the current and prior year no financial instruments were used to 
manage foreign exchange risk. 

The carrying amount in Australian dollars of the Groupʼs monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than Australian 
dollars at the reporting date are as per the table below. Non Australian dollar liabilities include trade creditors, accruals and borrowings

Foreign currency sensitivity 

The Group is mainly exposed to United States Dollars, Canadian Dollars, European Dollars and South African Rand.  

The  following  table  details  the  Groupʼs  sensitivity  to  a  10%  (2012:  10%)  increase  and  decrease  in  the  Australian  Dollar  against  the 
relevant  foreign  currencies.  The  sensitivity  rate  of  10%  (2012:  10%)  is  the  rate  used  when  performing  regular  reporting  on  foreign 
currency  risk  internally.  Foreign  exchange  risk  is  reported  regularly  to  key  management  personnel  and  the  Board.  The  estimated 
movement of 10% (2012: 10%) represents managementʼs assessment of the possible change in foreign currency exchange rates which 
is based on regular forecasts received from major lending institutions. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency 
denominated monetary items and adjust their translation at the period end for a 10% (2012: 10%) change in foreign currency rates. The 
sensitivity analysis includes external loans as well as loans to foreign operations within the Group where the denomination of the loan is 
in a currency other than the currency of the lender or the borrower. A positive number indicates an increase in profit or loss and other 
equity  where  the  Australian  Dollar  strengthens  against  the  respective  currency.  For  a  weakening  of  the  Australian  Dollar  against  the 
respective currency there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit and other equity, and the balances below would carry the 
opposite sign.

(g) Interest rate risk management 

The Company and the Group are exposed to interest rate risk as entities in the Group borrow funds at floating interest rates. Interest 
rate risk is managed within defined treasury policy guidelines. This is achieved by the Group by maintaining an appropriate mix between 
fixed and floating rate borrowings. 

The  Company  and  the  Groupʼs  exposures  to  interest  rates  on  financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  detailed  in  the  liquidity  risk 
management section of this note. 

Interest rate sensitivity 

The sensitivity data presented in the below paragraph is based on the exposure to interest rates for both derivative and non-derivative 
instruments  at  the  reporting  date  and  the  stipulated  change  taking  place  at  the  beginning  of  the  financial  year  and  held  constant 
throughout  the  reporting  period.  A  100  basis  point  increase  or  decrease  is  used  when  reporting  interest  rate  risk  internally  to  key 
management personnel and represents managementʼs assessment of the possible changes in interest rates based on consultation with 
appropriately qualified financial professionals. 

Group sensitivity 

At reporting date,  if interest  rates had been  100  basis  points higher  and  all other variables were held  constant, the Groupʼs  net  profit 
would  decrease  by  $0.6  million  (2012:  $0.6  million).  There  would  be  a  nil  impact  on  equity  other  than  via  profit.  A  100  basis  point 
decrease  in interest rates,  holding  all other variables constant would yield an  increase  in the Groupʼs  net profit of $0.6  million (2012: 
$0.6 million). This is mainly attributable to the Groupʼs exposure to interest rates on its variable rate borrowings.

Financial Instruments (continued) 

(h) Credit risk management 

Credit  risk  refers  to  the  risk  that  a  counterparty  will  default  on  its  contractual  obligations  resulting  in  financial  loss  to  the  Group.  The 
Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral  where appropriate, as a 
means  of  mitigating  the  risk  of  financial  loss  from  defaults.  The  Groupʼs  exposure  and  the  credit  ratings  of  its  counterparties  are 
monitored  on  a  weekly  basis  and  the  aggregate  value  of  transactions  concluded  is  spread  amongst  approved  counterparties.  Credit 
exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed regularly by management. 

Trade  receivables  consist  of  a  large  number  of  customers,  spread  across  diverse  industries  and  geographical  areas.  Ongoing  credit 
evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable. 

The  Group  does  not  have  any  significant  credit  risk  exposure  to  any  single  counterparty  or  group  of  counterparties  having  similar 
characteristics. 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 carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowances for losses, represents the Groupʼs 
maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of collateral obtained. At 30 June 2013 no such collateral had been 
obtained (30 June 2012: nil). 

 (i) Liquidity risk management 

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, who monitor short, medium and long term liquidity 
requirements through the use of financial models. The treasury function reports regularly to key management personnel and the Board 
on  matters  affecting  liquidity  risk.  The  Group  manages  liquidity  risk  by  maintaining  adequate  reserves,  banking  facilities  and  reserve 
borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and 
liabilities. Included in note 28(d) is a listing of additional undrawn facilities that the Company/Group has at its disposal to further reduce 
liquidity risk. 

Liquidity and interest risk tables 

The following tables detail the Companyʼs and the Groupʼs remaining contractual maturity for its non–derivative financial liabilities. The 
tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group 
can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows.

(j) Fair value of financial instruments 

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

• 

• 

• 

The fair values 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  values  of  derivative  instruments  are  calculated  using  quoted  prices.  Where  such  prices  are  not  available,  a  discounted 
cash flow analysis is performed using the applicable yield curve for the duration of the instruments for non-optional derivatives, and 
option pricing  models  for optional  derivatives. Foreign currency forward contracts are measured  using  quoted forward exchange 
rates and yield curves derived from quoted interest rates matching maturities of the contracts. Interest rate swaps are measured at 
the present value of future cash flows estimated and discounted based on the applicable yield curves derived from quoted interest 
rates; and 
The  fair  values  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. 

The financial statements include holdings in “financial assets held for sale” listed shares which are measured at fair value (note 9).  

The Directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the financial 
statements approximates their fair values. 

Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position 

The  following  table  provides  an  analysis  of  financial  instruments  that  are  measured  subsequent  to  initial  recognition  at  fair  value, 
grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable. 

• 

• 

• 

Level  1  fair  value  measurements  are  those  derived  from  quoted  prices  (unadjusted)  in  active  markets  for  identical  assets  or 
liabilities. 
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable 
for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are 
not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Staff Option Scheme 

(a) Share Based Payment Arrangements

Staff Option Plan 

The Group  has  in place a Staff  Option Scheme (Scheme) to  reward employees (including  Key Management Personnel) for their past 
services as well as to provide an incentive for future efforts. The terms and conditions of the Scheme are set out in the Scheme Rules 
with  the  Board  of  Directors  responsible  for  the  administration  of  the  Scheme.  The  options  carry  no  rights  to  dividends  and  no voting 
rights. The  options expire on their  expiry  date and at 30 June 2013  all remaining options  have expired.  Each employee share  option 
converts to one ordinary share of Imdex Limited on exercise. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the option. 
Options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of expiry. The number of options granted to staff is generally 
based  on  an  assessment  of  the  performance  of  that  staff  member  as  determined  by  the  Board  of  Directors.  Staff  are  normally  only 
eligible  to  receive options  when they  have  been  with  the  Company  in excess of 6-12  months. Options  expire  when the option  holder 
ceases to be employed by the Group.

Performance Rights Plan 

(a) Performance Rights Plan 

At the Imdex Limited Annual General Meeting on 15 October 2009 the shareholders approved the formation of a Performance Rights 
Plan (PRP or Plan). The Plan allows for the issue of performance rights to employees from time to time. The quantum of performance 
rights  granted  to  employees  is  at  the  discretion  of  the  Directors  and  is  generally  based  on  seniority  and  level  of  contribution  to  the 
strategic  goals  of  Imdex  Limited.  A  performance  right  is  the  right  to  receive  one  fully  paid  Imdex  Limited  ordinary  share  for  nil 
consideration  should  set  hurdles  be  achieved  and  tenure  of  employment  be  maintained.  The  hurdles  are  set  by  the  Directors  when 
performance  rights  are  issued  and  are  generally  linked  to  the  achievement  of  financial  or  other  strategic  goals  of  Imdex  Limited.  If 
hurdles are achieved generally shares will be issued evenly over the 3 year period assuming continuity of employment. 

(b) Performance rights granted in the current year 

Staff Performance Rights 

Tranche 10 comprising 1,261,991 performance rights was issued to employees on 28 September 2012 and are to be allotted in equal 
1/3  lots  annually  beginning  in  August  2013.  These  performance  rights  are  subject  to  profitability  related  hurdles  as  well  as  ongoing 
employment  tenure.  1,223,528  of  these  performance  rights  expired  due  to  performance  hurdles  not  being  met.  The  fair  value  of  a 
performance right at grant date  was $1.62. The expected total cost of the estimated 38,463 fully paid ordinary shares to be issued in 
Imdex Limited will therefore be $62,310. This value will be expensed over the vesting period from October 2012 to August 2015, with 
$0.03 million expensed in the current year. 

An additional 50,000 performance rights were issued under Tranche 7 to Key Management Personnel with 1/4 to be allotted in August 
2014 with the remaining 3/4 to be allotted in August 2015. These performance rights are subject to ongoing employment tenure only. 
The fair value of a performance right at grant date was $2.10. The expected total cost of the estimated 50,000 fully paid ordinary shares 
to  be  issued  in Imdex  Limited  will  therefore be $0.1  million.  This value  will  be  expensed over the vesting  period to August 2015,  with 
$0.2 million expensed in the current year. 

Since their granting a number of performance rights have expired by virtue of staff leaving the employment of the Imdex Group, details 
of  which  are  contained  in  the  table  below.  One  fully  paid  Imdex  Limited  ordinary  shares  will  be  issued  in  satisfaction  of  each 
performance right should specified targets be met. 

For the purposes of the FY13 financial statements, the Directors have made an estimate of the likelihood of the achievement of FY13 
targets and hence the number of fully paid Imdex Limited ordinary shares that are likely to be issued. An adjustment will be made in the 
next financial year should the actual number of shares issued be different from those estimated. It is estimated that out of the 1,311,991 
performance rights granted, 88,463 will meet the required performance hurdles and will result in 88,463 fully paid Imdex Limited ordinary 
shares being issued over three years should employment tenure be retained. 

Managing Directorʼs Performance Rights 

264,818 performance rights were  granted to the Managing Director on 18 October 2012 following approval by the shareholders at the 
Annual General Meeting. One fully paid Imdex Limited ordinary share will be issued in satisfaction of each performance right should the 
specified earnings per share and total shareholder return targets be met over the 3 year measurement period from FY13 to FY15. The 
Managing  Director is  subject to  two hurdles each  with  equal  weighting.  The first is that the  Total Shareholder Return  (TSR)  of  Imdex 
Limited must exceed the average TSR of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement period. The second is that the Earnings Per Share 
of Imdex Limited must exceed the average EPS of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement period. 

Measurement against targets will only be possible once the FY15 independent audit report is signed in August 2015.  

For  the  purposes  of  the  FY13  financial  statements,  the  Directors  have  made  an  estimate  of  the  likelihood  of  the  achievement  of  the 
specified targets and hence the number of fully paid Imdex Limited ordinary shares that are likely to be issued. Due to the hurdle being 
market  related,  adjustment  will  not  be  made  in  future  periods  should  the  actual  number  of  shares  issued  be  different  from  those 
estimated.  It  is  estimated  that  out  of  the  264,818  performance  rights  issued,  all  will  meet  the  required  performance  hurdles  and  will 
result in 264,818 fully paid Imdex Limited ordinary shares being issued on or about August 2015 should employment tenure be retained. 

The  fair  value  of  a  performance  right  at  grant  date  was  $1.44  per  right.  The  expected  total  cost  of  the  estimated  264,818  fully  paid 
ordinary  shares to be  issued in Imdex  Limited will therefore  be  $0.4  million.  This value  will  be  expensed  over  the vesting period  from 
October 2012 to August 2015, with $0.1 million expensed in the current year.

• 

Tranche 7 – 615,000 performance rights were issued to Key Management Personnel with 1/4 to be allotted in August 2014 
with  the  remaining  3/4  to  be  allotted  in  August  2015.  These  performance  rights  are  subject  to  ongoing  employment  tenure 
only. The fair value of a performance right at grant date was $2.10. The expected total cost of the estimated 615,000 fully paid 
ordinary  shares  to  be  issued  in  Imdex  Limited  will  therefore  be  $1.3  million.  This  value  will  be  expensed  over  the  vesting 
period from September 2011 to August 2015, with $0.2 million expensed in the prior year. 

Tranche 8 – 15,000 performance rights were issued to an employee and all were allotted in August 2013. The fair value of a 
performance right at grant date was $2.08. The expected total cost of the estimated 15,000 fully paid ordinary shares to be 
issued in Imdex Limited will therefore be $0.03 million and has been fully expensed in the prior year.

Tranche 9 – 835,090 performance rights were issued to employees and are to be allotted in equal 1/3 lots annually beginning 
in August 2012. These performance rights are subject to profitability related hurdles as well as ongoing employment tenure. 
21,743 of these performance rights expired due to performance hurdles not being met. The fair value of a performance right at 
grant  date  was  $1.79.  The  expected  total  cost  of  the  estimated  813,347  fully  paid  ordinary  shares  to  be  issued  in  Imdex 
Limited will therefore be $1.5 million. This value will be expensed over the vesting period from October 2011 to August 2014, 
with $0.9 million expensed in the prior year. 

Since their granting a number of performance rights have expired by virtue of staff leaving the employment of the Imdex Group, details 
of  which  are  contained  in  the  table  below.  One  fully  paid  Imdex  Limited  ordinary  shares  will  be  issued  in  satisfaction  of  each 
performance right should specified targets be met. 

Managing Directorʼs Performance Rights 

153,318 performance rights were  granted to the Managing Director on 20 October 2011 following approval by the shareholders at the 
Annual General Meeting. One fully paid Imdex Limited ordinary shares  will be issued in satisfaction of each performance right should 
the specified earnings per share and total shareholder return targets be met over the 3 year measurement period from FY12 to FY14. 
The Managing Director is subject to two hurdles each with equal weighting. The first is that the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) of Imdex 
Limited must exceed the average TSR of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement period. The second is that the Earnings Per Share 
of Imdex Limited must exceed the average EPS of the ASX300 over the 3 year measurement period. 

Measurement against targets will only be possible once the FY14 independent audit report is signed in August 2014.  

The  fair  value  of  a  performance  right  at  grant  date  was  $1.91  per  right.  The  expected  total  cost  of  the  estimated  153,318  fully  paid 
ordinary  shares to be  issued in Imdex  Limited will therefore  be  $0.3  million.  This value will  be  expensed  over  the vesting period  from 
October 2011 to August 2014, with $0.1 million expensed in the prior year.
