Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedBusiness Overview

Our Vision and Values

Ingenia’s communities are a place where people 
have a sense of connection and belonging. 

With a positive impact on more than 10,850 residents each and every day, our commitment to our 
customers, their families and security holders is to perform with integrity, foster respect for all and 
build community through continuous improvement in everything we do. 

With over $2.1 billion assets owned/managed, our portfolio has expanded rapidly with the addition 
of 31 communities and development sites acquired in the past 13 months bringing our total to 110 
communities and growing. 

The past year has continued the rapid expansion in the Group’s core businesses, building a strong 
platform for growth, with over 5,600 homes, villas, cabins and sites collecting rent and a development 
pipeline of 6,580 home sites owned or optioned. 

Over 1,250 employees are part of our team, dedicated to creating community for our residents 
and guests. 

Sustainability 
A range of initiatives in 
support of the Group’s 
target of a carbon 
neutral operation by 
2035 were progressed. 
These initiatives 
included continuing 
to roll out solar and 
LED lighting across 
existing communities 
and commencement of 
Australia’s first Green 
Star Home community.

Health and safety 
The Group’s focus on 
‘creating community’ 
was key to supporting 
our teams and 
residents through 
COVID-19. Increased

initiatives were aimed 
at ensuring health, 
safety and wellness for 
our 1,200+ employees 
and more than 10,850 
residents.

A total of 409 new homes 
were settled across thirteen 
communities. Over 6,580 
sites are owned or optioned 
for future development. 
Sustainability standards 
for new developments

projects registered for 
Green Star - Communities 
certification.

Business expansion 
A total of $650 million 
in new acquisitions 
were complete in 
FY22, including the

Chairman’s Letter 

Jim Hazel

The 2022 financial 
year was a milestone 
year for the Group 
as we celebrated 
10 years.

Dear Security holders

The 2022 financial year was a milestone year for the 
Group as we celebrated 10 years since the creation 
of Ingenia Communities, following the internalisation 
of management and separation from ING Real 
Estate Investment Management. Ingenia started its 
journey in June 2012 with a clear vision and a desire 
to build a business which would become a leader in 
the largely unknown land lease communities sector. 
I am proud to say that as we look back on the last 10 
years, we have not only realised that vision but have 
many additional achievements to be proud of. 

The last financial year, in particular, has been one of 
transformational change and this has been achieved 
against a backdrop of disruption and uncertainty. 
The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to have a 
material impact on businesses and individuals and 
we have seen other issues and changes also emerge. 
Rising interest rates, inflationary pressures, extreme 
weather and supply chain and labour shortages 
have created multiple challenges for the Group. 
In this environment, supporting our residents and 
teams has remained a focus for the Board and 
management and we have been pleased to see 
our teams demonstrate an ability to innovate and 
to respond to current circumstances while seeking 
tomorrow’s opportunities.

6

The acquisition of $650 million of additional assets 
over the year was supported by investors through 
the $475 million securities entitlement offer. We 
are entering the 2023 financial year with a strong 
platform and an expanded portfolio and team, who 
maintain the passion for our customers that sets 
Ingenia apart. 

Financial performance
The closure of many of our holiday parks to transient 
guests for four months and construction delays due 
to COVID-19 and adverse weather had a material 
impact on the FY22 result. While it was pleasing to 
see the strong rebound across the holiday parks in 
the second half and the strength of the residential 
communities rental cashflows remained unchanged, 
performance for the year did not meet our 
original expectations.

The Group delivered increases in revenue (up 14%), 
EBIT (up 8% to $101.7 million) and underlying profit 
(up 14%). Underlying profit per security was down 
1%, reflecting the increase in securities on issue. 
The full year distribution of 11.0 cents per stapled 
security represented an increase of 5%. 

Over the year, a focus on capital management 
was maintained, with an increase in the Group’s 
funding facility to $780 million. Hedging is in place 
to mitigate the impact of rising interest rates (51% 
of 30 June debt hedged). At year end, the Group 
had $310 million of undrawn debt, providing capacity 
to fund further investment in embedded growth 
and select acquisitions. 

Delivering our strategic and sustainability 
goals
In addition to delivering strong financial returns, 
we made significant progress on our strategy and 
sustainability initiatives.

We progressively invested the $475 million equity 
raised in November 2021 to build our rental base 
and secure land for future lifestyle community 
development. A total of $650 million in acquisitions 
were completed over the year, adding a further 
3,826 income producing sites to our stable rental 
base. These acquisitions expanded our footprint and 
leveraged our platform, contributing to increasing 
margins across the Lifestyle Rental, Gardens and 
Holiday Parks segments. 

We continued to make sustainability a priority as we 
embedded our approach across the business and 
made solid progress on the initiatives outlined in our 
last Annual Report and 2021 Sustainability Report. 

Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedChairman’s Letter 

Our solar strategy and approach to new 
developments have continued to evolve in support 
of our commitment to achieving a carbon neutral 
operation (Scope 1 and 2) by 2035 and a 30% 
reduction in carbon emissions over the five years to 
2026, with 2,080 kW of solar PV installed across our 
operating communities to date and the publication 
of our first detailed emissions disclosures. We 
completed our first Green Star Home as part of the 
Green Building Council of Australia’s pilot program 
and were proud to lead the sector in embracing 
this new standard, announcing that we will be the 
first residential developer to create a Green Star 
Homes community – with all 261 homes at our 
Beveridge development in Melbourne to achieve this 
certification. The community will also be rated under 
the Green Star - Communities rating.

We broadened our approach to Diversity, launching 
a new Diversity and Inclusion Policy and a leading 
parental leave policy to support working parents. 
The Group’s 40:40:20 target was met, with females 
representing 43% of non-executive directors and 60% 
of our executive team. Recognising our leadership 
in this area, in 2021 Ingenia ranked No. 2 for women 
in executive leadership team roles for the second 
year in the Chief Executive Women (CEW) Senior 
Executive Census.

We are committed to operating sustainably, 
maximising the social benefits of our business and 
reducing our environmental footprint. We progressed 
our approach to climate risk and further evolved our 
Modern Slavery framework in FY22, and over FY23 
will extend these initiatives as we build sustainability 
metrics into the remuneration framework and more 
broadly across performance metrics for our teams.

Board
Following the appointment of two new directors 
in FY21, Gary Shiffman stepped down as Sun 
Communities’ Nominee Director in December 2021. 
He has been replaced by John McLaren who is Sun 
Communities’ Chief Operating Officer and President, 
bringing extensive sector experience and in depth 
operating expertise. John has been an alternate 
Director since February 2019 and sits on the board 
of our Joint Venture with Sun Communities. We 
welcome John to the Board and thank Gary for his 
contribution over the past three years. 

We continue to ensure the Board retains the right mix 
of skills and experience to guide the Group’s strategy 
and deliver on business objectives and will consider 
further opportunities for renewal as part of our 
commitment to leading governance practices.

Outlook – FY23 and beyond
We enter FY23 with ongoing uncertainty about 
operating conditions and the macro-economic 
environment, yet we retain a positive outlook 
for Ingenia’s business. 

The long-term fundamental drivers of an ageing 
population, housing affordability and the benefits 
of social engagement that our communities offer 
is unchanged. Net domestic migration is bolstering 
these overarching demand drivers, with the 
movement out of cities to Queensland and coastal 
and regional locations where our communities 
are located offering support for demand. Our 
communities are affordable and provide an attractive 
financial and lifestyle solution for downsizers who 
have benefitted from the increase in value of their 
family home. 

Our Holiday Parks business has strong forward 
bookings and ongoing demand for domestic travel, 
despite the reopening of international borders. We 
expect these conditions to remain as our target 
markets are attracted to ‘low risk’, affordable 
domestic travel.

I would like to assure all security holders of our 
ongoing commitment to delivering returns as we 
capitalise on a materially larger portfolio with 
embedded growth and strong drivers of long term 
demand. Recent acquisitions, a well positioned 
balance sheet and strong base of resilient rental 
cash flows position the business well to benefit from 
our platform, expertise and enhanced scale and 
to navigate continuing uncertain macro-economic 
conditions. 

The results delivered in FY22 were testament to 
our teams, who demonstrated their ability to adapt 
as conditions changed – I thank them for their 
commitment and look forward to their contribution 
as we enter the next ten years.

Finally, I would like to thank all security holders for 
your continued support of Ingenia Communities.

CEO & Managing Director’s Letter

Simon Owen

I am pleased to report on the 
Group’s performance in FY22, which 
demonstrated the resilience of the 
Group’s core rental cashflows. 

 $338.1m 

Revenue

up 14% on pcp 

FY22 performance
Revenue grew 14% to $338.1 million and 
EBIT was up 8% to $101.7 million. Operating 
cash flow of $114.9 million was down 17% 
as an increase in rental sites was offset 
by lost tourism earnings and reduced 
home settlements due to COVID-19 and 
weather events.

Statutory Profit of $100.6 million was up 
38% on FY21. Underlying Profit of $87.9 
million increased 14% on the prior year 
and Net Asset Value per security (NAV) 
increased to $3.75 (from $3.03 at 30 June 
2021). 

Underlying EPS of 23.3 cents represented 
a 1% decrease on FY21, impacted by an 
increase in weighted average securities on 
issue as a result of the $475 million equity 
raising in November 2021. The full year 
distribution of 11.0 cents per stapled security 
increased 5% on FY21.

The result was in line with guidance, with 
EBIT falling at the mid point of the guidance 
range and underlying EPS slightly above 
(down 0.3 cents versus guidance of a 1-2 
cent decline). New home settlements of 
409, while a record for the Group, were 
impacted by weather and construction 
industry labour and supply shortages.

In a year characterised by 
multiple external challenges – 
COVID-19 related lockdowns, 
rising inflation and interest 
rates, extreme weather events 
and supply chain and labour 
shortages – Ingenia’s key 
strategic drivers have remained 
intact and the business has 
continued to grow. 

FY22 was a year of transformational growth for the 
business, with total assets increasing by more than 
60% over the course of the year as we acquired 
$650 million of assets (30 communities and sites), 
significantly expanding the Group’s revenue base 
and footprint across each of the core businesses. 

While performance was impacted by the challenges 
of the operating environment, which saw holidays 
revenue limited by COVID-19 related restrictions 
and home construction slowed by supply chain and 
labour shortages, performance was underpinned 
by the Group’s growing base of resilient rent-
based cashflows.

Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedCEO & Managing Director’s Letter

Revenue

Capital management
The Group closed FY22 with a 
well positioned balance sheet. 
At 30 June 2022, Ingenia’s loan to 
value ratio (LVR) was 25.7%, well 
below the Group’s target range 
of 30-40%, providing capacity 
to grow the Group’s portfolio 
through select acquisitions and 
additional development. Currently 
51% of 30 June 2022 drawn debt 
is hedged, with an average tenor 
of 3.7 years.

Delivering on strategic 
priorities
Enhanced scale in core business 
segments
Following the $475 million 
equity raising in November 2021, 
a focus on growing exposure 
to the lifestyle and holidays 
markets continued with $650 
million invested in the acquisition 
of established communities, 
holiday parks and land for 
future development. 

Ingenia Lifestyle (our land lease 
communities business) grew by 
64%, to almost 4,400 homes, 
assisted by the addition of two 
portfolios. 

Growth in the development 
pipeline was also achieved with 
sites owned, secured or optioned 
increasing by more than 50%, to 
6,580 sites. Consistent with our 
view of demographic and demand 
trends, this pipeline is now heavily 
focused in Queensland and 
coastal/regional markets. These 
markets remain highly affordable 
and are experiencing strong net 
internal migration flows.

CEO & Managing Director’s Letter

Combined with growth in the Group’s Joint Venture 
with Sun Communities, the Group now owns or 
manages a $2.1 billion property portfolio across 
110 assets. 

Acquisitions over the year included:

 – The Seachange portfolio – a portfolio of six 
premium lifestyle communities located in 
Queensland, including four established sites

 – Caravan Parks of Australia portfolio – comprising 
seven holiday and rental communities in Victoria 
and NSW

 – A portfolio of five holiday parks, including parks 
in Torquay (Victoria) and Noosa (Queensland)

 – Federation Villages – three established lifestyle 

communities in Victoria

 – Established rental communities in Victoria 

and NSW

 – BIG4 Beacon, an iconic holiday park in Victoria

 – Five development sites (four in Queensland), 

including one with initial construction 
commenced.

Residential communities 
The residential communities business remains the 
core of our strategy and we rapidly expanded this 
portfolio and future growth pipeline over FY22. Our 
communities, which are located in attractive outer 
metro and regional locations, have benefited from 
ongoing affordability and the appeal of community 
living post COVID-19 isolation.

The resilience of the rental cash flows, which are 
often underpinned by government payments, has 
continued as CPI linked rents have begun to increase. 
Acquisitions, new home settlements and investment 
in rental cabins have expanded the rental base and 
will contribute to future earnings growth. 

The Ingenia Gardens portfolio was expanded with the 
acquisition of an additional community in Victoria. 
Occupancy has been retained at over 95%, with 
strong rent collections and no increase in defaults, 
supporting rental revenue growth of 6%. 

Consistent with the Group’s focus on leadership in 
the sector, the Lifestyle Rental portfolio increased 
income producing sites by 55% over the year, with 
the number of homes now exceeding 5,700. This 
business is enjoying rapidly growing demand as 
downsizers seek quality affordable homes in desirable 
locations. Our communities offer diversity of location 
and price, with new homes for sale from $267,000 
to over $900,000. 

Sales across Ingenia Lifestyle increased, although 
were limited by supply chain disruption and labour 
shortages, with a record 409 new home settlements 
(up 8% on FY21). The development pipeline was 
increased and twelve projects are now underway, 
with an additional ten projects expected to 
commence in FY23. An increase in home settlements 
to 525 – 550 is targeted for FY23 as existing projects 

continue to build settlements and new projects 
contribute. We now have a development pipeline 
of 6,580 potential home sites which will assist in 
meeting this goal and our longer term target of 2,000 
– 2,200 settlements for the three years to end FY25.

Holiday Parks and Mixed Use communities 
benefitting from strong demand
Our Holiday Parks and Mixed Use portfolio was also 
expanded over the year, with the acquisition of eleven 
additional parks providing a larger base and extended 
footprint. Ingenia Holiday Parks now has parks from 
the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland to the Great 
Ocean Road in Victoria. 

Following the reopening of the parks to holiday 
guests in November, demand rebounded strongly and 
has remained bouyant as families and grey nomads 
continue to value local travel. Both occupancy and 
room rate grew in the second half compared to 
pre-COVID levels, and the business is benefitting 
from stronger demand in off peak periods which will 
contribute to annualised occupancy growth. The 
Group’s total cabin and camp sites increased to more 
than 4,250 and tourism rental income was up 35%.

Capital partnerships
We are beginning to see increased returns from 
our capital partnerships, as the development 
Joint Venture with Sun Communities is building 
momentum, with increased settlements from the 
Freshwater project and commencement of additional 
projects anticipated in FY23. Ingenia only contributes 
half of the required funding, while receiving fees for 
services and retaining the right to acquire and fully 
own the completed communities.

The funds management business generated a 
$2.4 million performance fee in FY22 as one fund 
was wound up, with Ingenia acquiring the assets and 
investors benefitting from a return in excess of target. 
We are also progressing a new Holiday Parks Fund 
which will expand the funds management business. 

Continuing prioritisation of ESG 
Our sustainability program has gained momentum 
this year as we have continued to prioritise projects 
and build capacity in line with our strategy. 
Maintaining a focus on the social benefits our 
business provides saw ongoing focus on resident, 
guest and team support and engagement, and the 
launch of a new Giving Policy to increase support 
to local communities. We remain conscious of the 
impact of growing costs of living on our residents, 
ensuring our rents and home prices remain 
affordable. 

Our people remain key to the delivery of our goals. 
We grew our employee base over the year and 
continue to focus on attracting and retaining talented 
people aligned to our vision and culture. We have 
increased investment in employee training, continue 
to expand employee ownership in the Group and 
have launched a new parental policy to support 
working parents.

Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedCEO & Managing Director’s Letter

Over the year we also welcomed new executives 
to our experienced leadership team - Von Slater as 
Head of Development and Kristy Minter as General 
Manager People and Culture. These Executive 
roles extend the capability and experience of 
the leadership team as we enter the next phase 
of growth.

We are continuining to make progress on our goal of 
a carbon neutral operation (Scope 1 and 2) by 2035 
and a 30% reduction in carbon emissions across 
defined communities over the five years to 2026 and 
published our first carbon emissions disclosures with 
our 2021 Sustainability Report. We have continued 
the rollout of solar and LED lighting and are well 
progressed with the integration of the thirty new 
assets acquired this year to these programs. 

We were excited to announce commencement of 
Australia’s first Green Star Home community – a clear 
demonstration of leadership in delivering healthier 
homes for our residents and more sustainable 
communities. 

More detail on these and other initiatives is included 
later in this Report.

Outlook
While we are cognisant of the ongoing uncertainty 
in macro-economic conditions, we are well placed 
for growth, with strong demand for our core 
businesses, a significantly expanded market share 
and operational footprint and a clear strategy. 

As we enter Ingenia’s second decade, I would like to 
thank our team for their commitment to delivering 
on our strategy and vision of ‘creating community’. 
Across the business our teams have again worked 
through many challenges, while integrating an 
impressive number of acquisitions and continuing 
to focus on delivering a positive experience for our 
residents and guests. 

Following a year of significant expansion, we expect 
acquisitions to slow over FY23 as we focus on 
delivering performance from an expanded portfolio 
with embedded growth opportunities. 

We maintain a positive outlook for the Group as we 
continue to benefit from strong drivers of demand.

Our uninterrupted resident rental streams provide 
a strong defensive element to returns. This base is 
growing and remains stable and predictable. 

We have continued to maintain a leadership position 
in lifestyle communities and our development pipeline 
has been reshaped to meet changing demographics. 
We continue to see strong migration to Queensland 
and the coast, as downsizers seek space and quality 
of life. Our communities remain affordable, offering 
high quality homes and engaged community living. 
We have 500 homes under construction or ordered 
and expect settlements to grow to 525 – 550 in FY23.

Our holidays business is experiencing bouyant 
demand as Australians are holidaying at home. 
We are uniquely positioned to benefit from what 
we believe is a strong medium term outlook for 
holiday parks as our target markets (families and 
grey nomads) seek accessible breaks, favouring 
local over international travel.

Expansion of our capital partnerships and recycling 
of capital through non core asset sales, combined 
with debt funding, positions us well to fund selective 
acquisitions and our development projects. 

Subject to no material change in the operating 
environment, the Group is targeting growth in EBIT 
of 30 to 35% and underlying EPS growth of 5 to 10% 
for FY23. 

It has been a privilege to lead Ingenia over the last 
10 years and I thank our Board for their support and 
guidance, particularly as we have navigated another 
challenging year. Finally, I would like to thank the 
many residents who make Ingenia home, the guests 
who holiday in our parks, and our security holders, 
for their ongoing support.

The Group’s residential communities 
provide stable, rent based cash flows 
and form the core focus of the Group’s 
growth strategy.

Offering land lease homes (where residents 
own the home and rent the land) and rental 
homes, Ingenia’s residential communities provide 
community based living, in an engaged, secure 
environment. Our communities meet a growing 
demand for housing affordability, across diverse 
locations and home prices.

Rental sites across Ingenia Lifestyle, Ingenia Rental 
and Ingenia Gardens increased by 41% over FY22, 
expanding the stable base of rental cash flows.

The development of new lifestyle (land lease) 
communities represents an attractive way to build 
the Group’s rental business through the creation 
of sustainable, purpose built communities.

Ingenia Lifestyle Rental

The Group’s Lifestyle 
Rental portfolio provides 
accommodation, 
predominantly through a 
land lease rental model, 
where residents own their 
home and rent the land. 

The portfolio has 
expanded rapidly, 
providing exposure 
to a growing market 
with stable cash 
flows.

Through additional 
acquisitions and 
development over 
FY22, the Lifestyle 
Rental portfolio 
currently has more 
than 5,700 homes and 
sites providing stable 
weekly rent across 
32 communities.

14

Ingenia Lifestyle Rental 
provides exposure to a growing 
demand from Australia’s ageing 
population for community living, 
with communities located in 
popular outer urban and coastal 
locations. The portfolio includes 
land lease communities (Ingenia 
Lifestyle) and all age ‘build to rent’ 
communities (Ingenia Rental). 

The core of this portfolio is rental 
revenue generated from residents 
who generally fund their rental 
payments via government pension 
and rental assistance. 

Over FY22, the portfolio was 
increased via acquisition, 
investment in additional rental 
homes and development and 
now has a value of $827.1 million 
($436.2 milllion at 30 June 2021). 

Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited 
Residential Communities 

Revenue increased to $55.1 million 
(up 59% on FY21). The portfolio 
provides a resilient rental stream 
with high levels of occupancy and 
CPI linked growth in rents across 
the majority of communities. Like 
for like rent grew 5% over the year, 
with average rent now at $197 
per week.

The EBIT contribution of $26.8 
million was up 62% on the prior 
year which also contributed to 
margin expansion as the growing 
portfolio leveraged the benefits 
of an established platform.

Future growth will be generated 
as the portfolio benefits from the 
addition of over 2,000 income 
producing sites in FY22 and new 
homes are added to existing and 
new communities via ongoing 
large scale and infill development.

Residential Communities 

Ingenia’s Lifestyle portfolio 
comprises almost 4,400 
land lease homes, 
providing both affordable 
and premium living with 
residents enjoying a range 
of facilities and activities. 

Ingenia Lifestyle 
communities now 
represent 55% of 
Ingenia’s portfolio, 
with communities 
concentrated in key 
coastal and outer 
urban locations.

Development is a 
key driver of growth 
in the rental base 
and the creation 
of sustainable 
communities.

The portfolio meets the need from 
a growing demographic of seniors 
who are attracted to the lifestyle 
our communities offer and see the 
opportunity to downsize to release 
equity in the current home. 

These acquisitions follow the 
addition of two established 
communities in FY21 and were 
supplemented by new home 
settlements as developments 
progressed.

Through FY22 the portfolio’s 
rental base grew rapidly as 
seven established communites 
were integrated and new homes 
were settled. These acquisitions 
comprised:

 – Four established communities 
in the strong Queensland 
market through the Seachange 
portfolio, which brings a 
premium brand in an attractive 
market for retirees

 – A portfolio of three established 

communities in outer 
Melbourne which extends 
our presence in Victoria, a 
market in which we are also 
growing through a range of 
development projects.

Rental growth across the portfolio 
is linked to inflation, with growth 
achieved as rent reviews were 
undertaken and new residents 
entered our communities. We 
remain keenly aware of the 
inflationary environment and 
interest rate pressures facing 
our residents and are committed 
to ensuring our rents remain 
affordable and represent value.

Over 280 home resales took 
place across our established 
communities, with residents 
benefitting from the increase in 
value on the sale of their home.

The Group’s 
Rental portfolio 
provides all age, 
affordable rental 
accommodation. 

The portfolio was 
expanded in FY22 and 
now comprises 1,327 
rental homes, across 
nine communities.

Over FY22 Ingenia Rental 
experienced strong demand for 
rental homes, with limited rental 
options and growing rents in 
key markets including Brisbane 
and regional areas driving high 
levels of demand. The portfolio 
was expanded beyond Brisbane 
over the year with the addition 
of three new communities in 
Melbourne and one at Anna Bay 
on the NSW Coast.

The addition of 91 new homes 
to the Brisbane communities 
improved returns and has 
attracted higher rents with new, 
two bedroom homes experiencing 
high demand. Improvements to 
the communities and the inclusion 
of modest community facilities has 
enhanced the level of amenity and 
resident satisfaction. 

The portfolio is meeting a need for 
affordable rental accommodation 
and over the course of FY23 will 
continue to grow returns as new 
rental homes are added to existing 
communities.

Ingenia Lifestyle 
Development

Ingenia’s development 
program supports further 
rental growth and the 
creation of modern, 
sustainable communities 
– a record 409 new home 
settlements in FY22 will 
add to the rental base.

The EBIT margin for the 
development business declined 
to 26.7% (from 32.2% in FY21) and 
was impacted by a lower average 
sale price and the costs associated 
with new developments that will 
deliver settlements in FY23/24.

Home settlements1

The development pipeline was 
increased by 56%, to 6,580 
potential future home sites, 
with acquisitions over the year 
including three communities with 
development already commenced 
and a further six development 
sites. These developments extend 
the pipeline of future projects 
for Ingenia and the Joint Venture 
and have increased exposure to 
Queensland and high growth 
coastal/regional markets which 
now represent 90% of our 
potential development sites.

This result was delivered in a 
period where the construction 
industry was challenged by 
COVID-19 related disruption to 
supply and a shortage of skilled 
labour, which was exacerbated 
by extreme weather conditions

increased sales prices and scale 
efficiencies.

in Queensland and northern NSW. 
As a result of these challenges, a 
number of projects were delayed 
and construction timeframes have 
extended. 

While these conditions continue to 
impact the supply of new homes, 
demand remains strong. Housing 
affordability issues and the appeal 
of community living post COVID-19 
isolation continue to make 
Ingenia’s communities a highly 
attractive proposition. Our target 
market is large, and growing, 
and our communities offer an 
engaged lifestyle with access to 
quality facilities and homes. We 
have projects located in markets 
benefitting from internal migration 
and our incoming residents have 
seen the value of their own home 
increase substantially, which has 
enhanced their ability to fund the 
purchase of a new home in one of 
our communities. Our communities 
offer diverse locations and price 
points, with homes for sale 
for under $300,000 to over 
$900,000.

We now have twelve communities 
under development with 
further projects launching this 
year. These include projects 
on the NSW Coast, in South 
East Queensland and Victoria. 

We are continuing to respond 
to market challenges with 
changes to our approach and 
constant dialogue with our 
construction partners. An 
increase in home settlements to 
525 – 550 is targeted for FY23 
as existing projects continue 
to build settlements and new 
projects contribute. We have also 
commenced our first Green Star 
Home community, at Beveridge 
in Victoria. This is the first 
community in Australia to adopt 
this standard, which will see as an 
important step forward in creating 
more sustainable communities and 
benefits for our residents. 

We remain confident in the ability 
of our development business 
to deliver growth, and prices 
remain affordable for downsizing 
residents, with flexibility to 
respond to changes in market 
conditions and customer demand. 
The 400+ deposits and contracts 
already in place, combined 
with the ability to leverage 
our scale and generate fees 
through delivery of development 
projects for the Joint Venture is 
expected to support development 
returns and the creation of 
new rental contracts in FY23.

GREEN STAR HOMES 
CASE STUDY

Ingenia Communities has become the first 
developer in Australia to commit to a master 
planned community of 261 homes, all with Green 
Building Council of Australia’s (GBCA) Green Star 
Homes certification, at Beveridge, Victoria. 

In a further step in the Group’s commitment to 
the creation of sustainable communities, Ingenia 
has committed to also achieving a Green Star - 
Communities rating on the project. 

This is an important milestone for the Group 
in building a leadership position in sustainable 
development projects. Civil construction has 
already commenced at Beveridge, 37km north 
of Melbourne’s CBD. 

Green Star certified homes at the Beveridge 
community will incorporate features such 
as double-glazed windows, an efficient heat 
pump for hot water, reticulated recycled water 
line to reduce potable water usage, efficient 
appliances, and LED lighting. 

The homes will be fully electric and have Ingenia’s 
solar, battery-ready micro grid, providing enhanced 
thermal comfort. This will result in cheaper energy 
and water bills, making them more affordable to 
run, healthier and more comfortable.

This commitment is not only aligned to the Group’s 
emissions reduction program, it is also an important 
part of our commitment to residents, along with 
affordability.

Ingenia Gardens

The Ingenia Garden’s portfolio 
provides affordable seniors 
rental accommodation, 
delivering stable recurring 
cash flows underpinned 
by Government payments 
(pension and rent assistance).

Over the year the 
Ingenia Gardens 
portfolio was increased 
via an acquisition 
and now has a value 
of $167.2 million 
($150.2 milllion at 
30 June 2021). 

Ingenia Connect, a ‘concierge’ 
style service offered to residents 
for no charge, has continued to 
grow, assisting residents to age 
in place and supporting their 
health and wellbeing. Average 
resident tenure for clients in 
Ingenia Gardens communities is 
now 4.3 years, well above the 3.4 
year portfolio average. Ingenia 
Connect now has 1,200 residents 
accessing the service, with more 
than 500 living in Ingenia Gardens 
communities.

The portfolio is continuing to 
deliver stable, government backed 
rents with the majority of residents 
receiving a government pension 
and rent assistance. 

Rental revenue increased 6% and 
like for like rent grew 3% over the 
year, with average rent now at 
$354 per week. EBIT increased 
6% to $11.5 million, which also 
contributed to margin expansion 
as the portfolio leveraged 
the benefits of an established 
platform.

In October 2021, the portfolio was 
expanded through the addition 
of a 60-unit community in 
Melbourne.

Ingenia Gardens communities 
continue to be attractive to 
residents, with a focus on 
ensuring residents enjoy living 
in a connected and engaged 
community. 

Residents were attracted to the 
supported environment Ingenia 
Gardens offers residents, with 
reduced move-outs contributing 
to ongoing high occupancy over 
the year.

Annual sites and 
land lease homes 
are offered at a 
number of ‘mixed use’ 
communities.

Reflecting growth in the 
portfolio through the 
acquisition of eleven parks 
over FY22, the Portfolio 
increased to $692.9 million, 
up from $490.1 million at 
30 June 2021. Closure of 
NSW and Victorian parks 
to holiday guests for four 
months and ongoing 
COVID-19 restrictions 
resulted a significant loss of 
revenue (circa $10 milion) in 
the first half of the year.

With the removal of 
restrictions, performance 
rebounded strongly. As a 

result of increased demand and 
portfolio expansion, tourism rental 
increased 35% on the prior year, 
to $71.8 million. While tourism 
cabins and sites benefitted from 
the demand for domestic travel, 
the portfolio also grew the stable 
underlying revenue stream from 
the annual and land lease (home) 
sites across Mixed Use parks. 

The EBIT contribution was up 
23% to $35.3 million with an 
improvement in EBIT margin to 
39.7% as the portfolio continued 
to grow, leveraging the benefits of 
increased scale.

While the last three years have 
been characterised by disruptions 
to trading due to COVID-19 
restrictions, performance in 
the second half was well above 
pre-COVID-19 levels, with like 
for like occupancy up 7% and 
average daily rate up 30% when 
compared to 2H19.

Caravan and Holiday parks grew 
in popularity whilst international 
borders remained closed, and the 

desire to ‘holiday at home’ has 
continued post borders reopening, 
driving demand from traditional 
and new guests. 

The addition of eleven parks over 
the year, and the acquisition of 
BIG4 Wagga Wagga post year 
end, have added more than 1,920 
income producing sites, including 
additional annual and permanent 
sites. The addition of a further 32 
tourism cabins to existing parks 
has increased yield and introduced 
new accommodation types, 
including glamping tents and ‘air 
stream caravans’. 

We expect ongoing demand as 
families and grey nomads continue 
to value local travel. Forward 
bookings through to August 2023 
are up more than 30% (versus 
2022) and we are seeing greater 
demand in non peak periods, 
which will support annualised 
occupancy growth. The portfolio 
will also benefit from increased 
scale, additional cabins, diverse 
locations and a focus on guest 
experience in FY23.

Capital Partnerships 

Joint Venture with Sun Communities

The Joint Venture with US based 
Sun Communities was established in 
November 2018, providing the Group 
with a capital partner in the greenfield 
development of lifestyle communities. 

In addition to a 50% 
ownership in the Joint 
Venture, Ingenia, as 
manager, receives 
fees for services 
including origination, 
development and 
asset management. 
The Group retains 
the option to acquire 
communities from 
the Joint Venture, 
on completion.

Reflecting growing settlements 
at Freshwater (with 56 homes 
settled in FY22) and the 
acquisition of two additional 
development projects during 
FY22, revenue from the Joint 
Venture grew over the year. 
The Joint Venture generated 
total revenue of $24.2 million 
(up from $11.4 million in FY21), 
resulting in an operating profit 
of $12.2 million. Ingenia derived 
$1.6 million of fee income for 
services provided to the Joint 
Venture in the period.

The Freshwater community 
at Burpengary in Queensland 
is building sales momentum 
with 56 homes settled in FY22 
and additional projects are 
anticipated to commence in 
FY23.

The acquisition of Bobs Farm, 
an approved development site 
in the popular Port Stephens 
region, will provide 111 homes 
and community facilities. 
Work commenced on the 
project in early FY23 with first 
settlements anticipated in 
FY23/24. 

Other projects expected to 
commence works in FY23 
include:

 – A 24 hectare site at 

Morisset, on the popular 
NSW Coast, with approval 
for 606 new homes

 – A boutique community 

of 121 homes at Fullerton 
Cove, near Newcastle 
(NSW), where a 6 star 
Green Star – Communities 
rating will be targeted

 – A 13.6 hectare site on the 
Sunshine Coast (QLD) 
where approval for 225 
homes and associated 
facilities is in place.

Further sites are under option 
and contract, subject to DA, 
providing the opportunity to 
continue to extend the Joint 
Venture’s projects.

Further growth in the Joint 
Venture is expected in FY23 
as the Freshwater community 
continues to build sales and 
new developments commence. 
A pipeline of additional 
projects has been secured 
and, subject to approvals, 
will contribute to longer term 
growth of the Joint Venture 
and expansion of the Group’s 
rental base.

Funds Management

The Funds Management business provides 
an opportunity to co-invest alongside Fund 
investors, providing an ownership interest 
in a broader portfolio, ability to leverage 
the Group’s established platform and 
enhanced returns. 

Ingenia acquired 
Eighth Gate Capital 
Management in August 
2019, in conjunction 
with the acquisition of 
a stake in each of the 
six managed funds. 

In FY22 Ingenia derived 
$5.6 million in income from 
the funds business, comprising 
fee income of $4.9 million and 
distributions of $0.7 million. 
In addition, we realised a 
$1.9 million gain on the Group’s 
co-investment in Fund 6. FY22 
fees included a $2.4 million 
performance fee following the 
wind up of Fund 6 in March 
2022 as the Fund delivered 
an IRR of more than 11% to 
investors, in excess of the 
target return. 

The carrying value of Ingenia’s 
investment in the Funds is 
currently $5.8 million.

The remaining five Funds 
are focused on established 
communities which deliver 
stable returns, comprising a 
range of mixed use and holiday 
parks in NSW and Queensland. 
Given the nature of the Fund 
assets, returns were impacted 
in the first half by COVID-19 
restrictions in relation to 
the holiday park operations. 
However, consistent with 
other parks across the Ingenia 
Holiday Parks network, 
a strong rebound was 
experienced in the second half. 

Our focus is on delivering 
performance for our Fund 
investors through active 
management of the individual 
assets, leveraging our 
operating platform and brand 
presence. 

We plan to expand the funds 
business and are progressing 
the opportunity for a holiday 
parks fund which will grow 
the fund platform and deliver 
stable returns for Fund 
investors.

Directors’ ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited Annual Report 2022 Year in reviewFinancial Statements Remuneration ReportSustainabilityOur LeadersDirectors’ ReportTransformational growth
During the period the Group undertook over $560.0 million of strategic transformational acquisitions, growing Ingenia’s 
market leading position in the lifestyle and holidays sectors and enhancing the Group’s growth profile. During the period, 
the Group acquired 12 Lifestyle communities, 11 Holiday communities, an additional Ingenia Gardens Village and 4 greenfield 
developments.

The growth in the portfolio was materially driven by the acquisition of the Seachange group, Caravan Parks of Australia and 
the Federation Villages portfolios.

The Seachange group is a high-quality portfolio of six lifestyle communities and development sites in South East QLD and 
was acquired for $270.0 million. The Seachange acquisition extends Ingenia’s presence in the strong South East QLD market 
via a complementary, well established premium brand with an established operating and development platform, providing 
Ingenia with additional management capabilities to contribute to the growth of the Group. 

The Caravan Parks of Australia portfolio, a portfolio of seven lifestyle and holiday communities in VIC and NSW, was 
acquired for $110.0 million. The Federation Villages portfolio consisted of three established lifestyle communities in 
Melbourne’s outer suburbs which added 504 homes and was acquired for $87.0 million. 

In addition to these portfolios the Group acquired seven holiday communities, a partially complete lifestyle community in 
QLD, an established seniors rental community and four additional development opportunities (two in the Joint Venture with 
Sun Communities), bringing the total potential development sites across the business to 6,580. 

These acquisitions were funded from debt facilities and a $475.0 million entitlement offer to existing security holders.

FY22 financial results
The year to 30 June 2022 delivered total revenue of $338.1 million, up 14% on the prior year. The Group settled 4091 turnkey 
homes (30 Jun 2021: 3801 homes) and grew Lifestyle and Holidays rental income from permanent, annual and tourism clients 
to $140.8 million (30 Jun 2021: $99.3 million).

Statutory profit of $100.6 million was up 38% on the prior year. The statutory result reflects the combination of growth in 
underlying earnings and fair value movements on investment property arising from: improved capitalisation rates, offset by 
transaction costs on new acquisitions and; a reduction of fair value associated with the realisation of development profits on 
the settlement of new homes.

Underlying profit from continuing operations was $87.9 million, which represents an increase of $10.6 million (14%) on the 
prior year. The underlying result was adversely impacted by industry wide supply and labour challenges which significantly 
impacted the EBIT contribution from Lifestyle Development (down 24% on prior year). The Holidays segment EBIT was up 
23% on the prior year from increased demand and new acquisitions despite forced COVID-19 associated closures. Ingenia 
Lifestyle Rental EBIT of $26.8 million, was up 62% with Ingenia Gardens EBIT of $11.5 million, up 6% from the prior year both 
segments benefited from acquisitions and inflation linked rent increases. 

Operating cash flow for the period was $114.9 million, down 17% from the prior year, reflecting lower available opening 
inventory than prior year and lower development profit.

The Group’s underlying earnings per security decreased by 1% from prior year driven by additional securities on issue from 
the November 2021 equity raise and adverse COVID-19 and supply chain impacts on the Holidays and Lifestyle Development

The Group’s net asset value (NAV), of $3.75 per security, was up 24% compared with 30 June 2021 NAV of $3.03, driven by 
positive revaluations of the Group’s assets and the impact of the November 2021 equity raise, where securities were issued at 
a premium to asset value. Net tangible assets (NTA) increased from $3.00 to $3.50 per security.

Ingenia Lifestyle Development
The Group delivered 353 turnkey settlements (30 Jun 2021: 350) with a further 56 (30 Jun 2021: 30) settlements in the Joint 
Venture. 

Development is currently underway at 12 communities and the Group has a strong development pipeline of 6,580 potential 
new home sites across Ingenia and the joint venture (30 Jun 2021: 4,220 sites). The Group commenced construction at 
Victoria Point, QLD and Beveridge, VIC during the period. 

The acquisition of the Seachange Group added 557 sites to the development pipeline and delivered 34 settlements in FY22. 

The Group is continuing to experience strong demand for its lifestyle offering from downsizers, with strong sales being 
delivered during the year and a high level of contracts and deposits on hand.

EBIT contribution is down 24% on prior year, largely reflecting a change in sales composition, with the Group’s high 
margin project Latitude One materially completed in FY21. EBIT was also impacted by increased costs associated with the 
commencement of new projects which made minimal contribution to settlements in FY22.

The carrying value of the Ingenia Lifestyle Development investment property at 30 June 2022 is $272.9 million (30 Jun 2021: 
$174.0 million).

Strategic priorities
The strategic priorities for the Joint Venture are to expand in key markets and to progress the existing portfolio of new 
lifestyle communities under development. The Joint Venture leverages the expertise and local market knowledge of Ingenia 
to identify, acquire and develop sites. Once homes are sold, Ingenia will also provide operational services to the lifestyle 
communities. Ingenia generates origination, development and management fees for these services plus a performance fee 
for above hurdle rate returns.

Funds Management
The Group’s funds and asset management business manages five funds that invest in lifestyle and holiday communities 
situated in NSW and QLD. The Group receives fees for the management and development of the assets and management 
of the funds. During the year, Ingenia acquired the Federation Village assets owned within one of the funds from investors. 
As part of this transaction, a performance fee and gain on the Group’s co-investment in the fund were realised.

The Group co-invests into each of the five funds, to ensure alignment with fund investors. The investment in the funds 
generates asset ownership and development revenue streams.

Operating cash flow for the period was $114.9 million, down 17% from the prior year, reflecting lower available opening 
inventory than prior year and lower development profit.

and development activities during the year.

Distributions
The following distributions were made during or in respect of the year:

 – On 22 February 2022, the Directors declared an interim distribution of 5.2 cps, amounting to $21.1 million which was paid on

 – On 24 August 2022, the Directors declared a final distribution of 5.8 cps amounting to $23.6 million, to be paid on 

22 September 2022.

FY23 outlook
The Group is well placed to continue to deliver growth in the core Lifestyle business, with strong demand from downsizers, 
increased market awareness, and a strong pipeline of projects commencing development that will generate additional rental 
cash flows. Growth in rental cash flows will also be delivered through ongoing demand for affordable housing and ongoing 
high occupancy and rent growth across the Group’s rental communities. Enhancing the performance of existing assets by 
delivering rent growth and investing in new homes remains a key priority for the Group.

Ingenia expects to continue to benefit from growth in domestic tourism with an extensive portfolio located in attractive 
holiday destinations. The priority for Ingenia Holidays is to enhance the customer experience and invest in new tourism 
cabins and refurbishment of existing cabins.

The Group will focus on increasing its assets under management through its capital partnerships including development in 
the Joint Venture through the commencement of developments in 1H23.

Amanda Heyworth 

Chair, Remuneration and Nomination Committee

Ingenia delivered solid results this financial year particularly given challenges associated with COVID-19 lockdowns, floods 
and supply chain and labour shortages. Rent growth and occupancy in our core lifestyle and rental businesses was strong 
and tourism rebounded following COVID-19 lockdowns in the first half. Home settlements increased on prior year but were 
lower than our original expectations due to supply chain and labour shortages. We also made good progress on our ESG 
agenda with a particular focus on green building innovations, emission reductions and gender diversity.

pandemic conditions and across the housing market cycle. While this success has drawn more competition, we are confident 
the company has a strong team, an exciting growth strategy, and an industry leading pipeline of projects. The investment 
into our strategic landbank impacts short term returns and consequently LTI payouts in the near term. Building out this 
pipeline will generate both development profits and rental streams and positions us well to take advantage of strong 
fundamentals arising from the ageing population and shifting customer preferences to deliver compelling returns to security 
holders over the medium term.

The chart below provides an overview of the rapid growth in the size and scope of our business over the past 10 years. As 
a result, the Board has placed higher expectations on executives and staff at every level. This, combined with the broader 
war for talent, has warranted very active attention to remuneration, required capabilities, recruitment, development and 
succession planning. Retention of our people is a challenge, particularly with new land lease sector entrants intensifying 
competition for proven talent. We are taking a holistic approach to retention and have deployed further investment in 
career development, capability building and succession planning in addition to ensuring we are remunerating our people 
competitively to keep turnover at an acceptable level.

The health and wellbeing of our people continues to be a key focus as we adapt to changing state health regulations. 
Additionally, we have invested more in our Employee Assistance Program and Mental Health First Aid. Last year, the Board 
exercised negative discretion to zero out two months of STI pay for the CEO and CFO to account for the months where 
we received JobKeeper. The resulting savings were paid as a one-off bonus to front line staff this year. We also continued 
to reward our people with the majority of our team members offered $1,000 of Ingenia securities for the fifth year in a row 
under our Ingenia INVEST plan.

Directors’ ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited Annual Report 2022 Year in reviewFinancial Statements SustainabilityOur LeadersDirectors’ ReportRemuneration ReportI’m very pleased that Ingenia continues to be a leader in gender diversity and have maintained at a Board and executive level 
the benchmark target mix of 40% men, 40% women and 20% either. Once again, we ranked second in the Chief Executive 
Women award for executive gender diversity in the ASX 300. As we move into the new financial year, we are amplifying 
our culture of belonging and identifying pathways for creating employment opportunities for disadvantaged groups. With 
a focus on sustainability, we have increased the attention for ESG and incorporated metrics linked to this achievement in 
executive scorecards.

Remuneration framework
There was no change to the remuneration framework this year. Our executive pay comprises Fixed Pay, Short-Term Incentive 
(STI) and Long-Term Incentive (LTI) components and is designed to ensure executives have a significant proportion of 
remuneration at risk, which is payable on the delivery of positive outcomes for security holders. We undertake a detailed 
market benchmarking of director fees and executive pay. Each Ingenia position is benchmarked against similar roles from a 
peer group of companies that reflect our industry, capitalisation, revenue and assets. In addition, The Board has introduced 
a formal Discretion Framework which reflects best practice and ASIC guidance and requires the Board to consider the 
application of discretion in the context of outcomes for other stakeholders including security holders, customers, and the 
communities in which we operate.

Remuneration outcomes for FY22
The Board made FY22 remuneration decisions based on recommendations from the Remuneration & Nominations 
Committee after considering input from Guerdon Associates, an independent remuneration specialist firm.

The CEO’s fixed remuneration was increased by an equity grant of Fixed Performance Rights with adjustments made to his 
STI opportunity at 80% (previously 78%) and LTI opportunity at 85% (previously 91%) of fixed remuneration. These equity 
grants were approved by unit holders at the November 2021 Annual General Meeting. The CFO’s remuneration was below 
the benchmark peer group and an increase of fixed remuneration of 5.9% was awarded with STI of 58% and LTI of 50% of 
fixed remuneration, which improves his position to peers, but remains below the benchmark. A modest 2.2% increase to 
fixed remuneration was awarded to the CIO & GC with her STI and LTI opportunity both increased from 40% to 45% of fixed 
remuneration. Given increasing competitiveness in the labour market and the relative position of our KMP pay to benchmark 
we foreshadow further adjustments for FY23.

STI outcomes are based on KMP achievement against scorecard targets which are aligned to operational and strategic 
business objectives. FY22 Short-Term Incentives were awarded to KMPs in the range of 75% to 85% of maximum. 

STIs are deferred 66% for the CEO and 50% for other KMPs. The Board determined that the profit sustainability threshold 
had been met to allow FY21 deferred STIs to vest in full.

Board fees were increased in FY22 but remain slightly below the peer benchmark group. 

Our FY19 LTI award vested at 87%. The TSR metric and underlying EPS growth results exceeded the maximum. The ROE 
performance metric was adjusted to remove the dilutive impact of the capital raise undertaken at the start of the pandemic 
in June 2020. In reaching this decision, the Board considered that the June 2020 capital raise at the start of the pandemic 
was in the best interest of security holders but disadvantaged management. The Board noted that the ROE performance 
target was missed narrowly (7.9% versus a threshold of 8.0%). The June 2020 capital raise was a Board decision which was 
not anticipated at the time that targets were set and was in the best interest of security holders, positioning the balance 
sheet for growth.

The FY20 LTI awards will be tested on 30 September 2022 and disclosed in the FY23 Remuneration Report.

In summary, I believe our remuneration framework and outcomes for the year deliver a balanced and fair outcome for all 
stakeholders in a particularly challenging market.

Looking ahead
The RNC continues to review our remuneration framework and metrics to ensure that it remains fit for purpose. In doing 
so, we are mindful of feedback from investors, the material increases in the scale and scope of the business and growing 
competition for talent with the entry of new competitors into the land lease sector. Some areas of focus for FY23:

 –

 –

 –

 –

 –

implementing a decision to extend our minimum security holding policy so that directors, KMPs and executives will all be 
expected to build a stake equivalent to 1x fixed remuneration over time;

introducing sector leading parental support, moving to 26 weeks of full pay, paid superannuation throughout the 12 months 
of parental leave and the provision of additional leave to support the early and engaged return of working parents; 

cascading ESG initiatives and targets more broadly across the organisation;

continuing to rigorously review our pay mix to reflect fair and competitive remuneration design; and

incorporating new metrics about successful IT and data transformation for responsible executives.

Directors’ ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedRemuneration Report (Audited)

Introduction
The Board is pleased to present the Remuneration Report for the Group for the year ended 30 June 2022, which forms 
part of the Directors’ Report and has been prepared in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) 
(Corporations Act). The data provided in the Remuneration Report was audited as required under section 308(3C) of the 
Corporations Act.

1.  Remuneration Governance

1.1.  Remuneration Policy
The Group’s Remuneration Policy aims to ensure that remuneration packages properly reflect the person’s duties and 
responsibilities, and are competitive in attracting, retaining, and motivating high calibre people.

The structure of remuneration, as explained below, is designed to retain, and attract talent, reward the achievement of 
strategic and operational objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of long-term value creation for security holders. 

The remuneration structures consider a range of factors, including the following:

 – market benchmarking based on the size and scope of the role

 –

 –

 –

 –

the Board’s view of strategic priorities (balancing short-term and long-term performance)

level of experience (developing or established in the role) and contribution and value to the business (flight risk, 
replaceability, succession planning)

the desire to motivate, retain and reward staff for high performance; and

expectations of stakeholders, including investors, staff, and regulators.

In line with our Discretion Framework the RNC considers the need to apply discretion at least annually and makes 
recommendations to the Board which retains full discretion over remuneration. 

1.2.  Link between remuneration and performance
The Board aims to ensure alignment between the executive KMP remuneration policy and the Group’s performance. 
Executive KMP remuneration packages are structured to align remuneration outcomes with the interests of security holders 
and the achievement of strategic objectives.

The components of remuneration and their link to Group performance is outlined in the table below:

Principles

Remuneration Component

Measure

Fixed remuneration 
should be fair, 
competitive and 
benchmarked 
to comparable 
market roles.

Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR) 
Annual salary, calculated on a total cost basis 
to include salary-packaged benefits grossed up 
for FBT, employer superannuation contributions, 
Fixed Remuneration Rights (FRR) and other 
non-cash benefits that may be agreed from time 
to time.

External benchmarking is reviewed by 
independent remuneration specialists 
Guerdon Associates.

The RNC reviews and makes 
recommendations to the Board in relation to 
TFR levels for executive KMP at least annually.

A significant 
portion of 
remuneration 
should be ‘at risk’ 
and awarded 
to executives 
based on the 
achievement of 
agreed objectives 
and hurdles.

Remuneration 
should be aligned 
to the interests of 
all security holders 
and build ownership 
and alignment.

The Board 
maintains sole 
discretion over 
the granting of 
equity rights as 
remuneration to 
employees.

Short-Term Incentive (STIs)
For achievement of STIs in relation to executive 
KMP, the payment is:

CEO: 33% cash and 67% deferred equity 
rights

CFO and CIO & GC: 50% cash and 50% 
deferred equity rights 

STI equity rights are deferred for 12 months. 
The deferral element is rights to INA stapled 
securities, plus additional stapled securities 
equal to the value of distributions during the 
deferral period on a reinvestment basis. 

STI equity rights vest subject to a Board 
assessment and a malus provision during the 
deferral period where Rights may be forfeited if 
underlying earnings growth is not sustainable or 
circumstances set out in the Rights Plan Rules 
occur (such as fraud, dishonesty, a breach of 
obligations or material misstatement of Ingenia’s 
financial position). 

Long-Term Incentive (LTIs)
LTI equity rights are granted to executive KMP 
to align their focus with the Group’s strategy and 
overall financial outcomes. 

LTI grants are made in equity rights to ensure 
alignment with security holders’ interests. 

STIs are awarded to executive KMP whose 
achievements, behaviour and focus meet 
the Group’s business plan and individual Key 
Performance Indicators (KPI’s) measured 
over the financial year. 

KPIs comprise financial and non-financial 
metrics and overall behaviours.

LTI performance conditions are as follows:

 – Relative Total Security holder Return 

(TSR) measured over three financial years.

 – Return on Equity (ROE) performance 

measured in the third year following the 
LTI grant.

 – Underlying Earnings per Security (EPS) 

growth over three financial years. 

 – Group settlements growth measured in 
the third year following the LTI grant. 

Other Employee Ownership Schemes

The Ingenia Valued 
Employees Share 
Take up Plan 
(INVEST Plan)

The purpose of the INVEST Plan is to recognise and reward the contribution of staff by granting 
employees an ownership interest in Ingenia, in the form of INA securities. Eligible employees 
include full time or part-time employees of the Group, with at least 12 months service as at the 
date of invitation. Any employee, other than an employee who participates in a Group long 
term incentive plan, may participate in the Plan. The INVEST Plan has been offered to eligible 
employees for four consecutive years. 

Talent Rights Grant 
(TRG)

The purpose of the TRG is retaining and incentivising non-KMP employees who have been 
identified as having a key role in the successful achievement of the Group’s strategy. In order to 
vest, the TRG Rights are subject to the Group’s Rights Plan, employees remaining in service and 
their satisfactory performance.

Directors’ ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedRemuneration Report (Audited) (continued) 

1.3.  Rights Plan
The current Rights Plan was approved by security holders at the AGM held on 11 November 2021. The Rights Plan provides 
for the grant of Rights, which upon a determination by the Board that the performance conditions have been met, will result 
in the issue of stapled securities in the Group for each Right. 

The Rights Plan provides for the grant of Fixed Remuneration Rights, Short-Term Incentive Rights and Long-Term Incentive 
Rights and Talent Rights to KMPs and other eligible employees. The Rights Plan permits the issuance of rights to Non-
Executive Directors. However, there is no intention to issue rights to Non-Executive Directors and this will be removed the 
next time the Rights Plan is submitted for security holder approval.

Each vested Right is equal to one Ingenia security plus an additional number of Ingenia securities calculated based on the 
distributions that would have been paid during the relevant period being reinvested. This entitlement only accrues on Rights 
that vest and is paid in the form of additional Rights at the time of vesting.

1.4.  Mix of remuneration components
Executive remuneration packages include a mix of TFR, STIs and LTIs. The Group aims to reward executives with a mix of 
remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities and aligned with market practice.

The Group’s policy is to position remuneration of executive KMP by reference to a range of comparable industry peers and 
other Australian listed companies of similar size and complexity across market capitalisation, asset value and revenue, whilst 
also considering the individual’s experience and sustained performance over time. 

2.  Remuneration Outcomes

2.1.  Financial performance over the past five years
Despite challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group continued to deliver on key strategic objectives – building 
a market leading position in the lifestyle and holidays sectors and enhancing the Group’s longer term growth profile via 
development as the lifestyle communities sector evolved. EBIT, NAV and income producing sites increased year on year over 
the five years to FY22. EPS grew steadily from FY18 to FY21 before falling slightly in FY22, reflecting the impact of additional 
securities on issue due to the November 2021 equity raising to fund over $560 million of acquisitions which will contribute 
returns in future years. The FY22 result was also adversely impacted by COVID-19 related closures of holiday parks and 
weather, supply chain and labour shortages.

(1)  Basic earnings per security is based on the weighted average number of securities on issue during the period.

(2)   Underlying ROE is calculated as underlying profit divided by average net assets. The underlying ROE performance hurdle for LTIPs is adjusted to 

remove the impact of investment property valuations on net assets over the vesting period.

(3)   The current LTI plan was established in FY16 with the first awards under the Plan vesting in FY19. No awards vested in FY18 under the Performance 

Quantum Rights (PQR) plan which was in place prior to establishment of the current Plan.

2.3.  Total fixed remuneration of Executive KMP
Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR) is an annual salary, calculated on a total cost basis to include salary-packaged benefits 
grossed up for fringe benefits tax (FBT), employer superannuation contributions and other non-cash benefits that may be 
agreed from time to time.

The RNC reviews and makes recommendations to the Board in relation to TFR levels for executive KMP at least 
annually. Policy is to position TFR at about the median. The appropriate TFR for each individual takes into account their 
role, experience, tenure and responsibilities, so that an individual’s TFR may be below, at or above the median. RNC 
recommendations were approved by the Board.

For the 2022 financial year, TFR increases are shown in the table below. The increase in CEO remuneration was not paid 
in cash. It took the form of 34,628 (30 Jun 2021: 7,778) Fixed Remuneration Rights (FRR’s) which were issued following 
approval from investors at the 2021 AGM.

 – A profit sustainability and ‘malus’ provision during the deferral period;

 – From the vesting date the executive may exercise their rights and have the relevant number of Ingenia securities issued 
in accordance with a prescribed formula; no amount is payable by the executive KMP for the issue or transfer of Ingenia

2.5.  Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP)
The objective of the Group’s LTIP is to align the ‘at risk’ compensation of executives with long-term security holder returns 
whilst also acting as a mechanism to retain key talent. 

Details of the FY21 LTIP Performance Conditions can be found in the 30 June 2021 Remuneration Report, available on the 
Group’s website.

FY22 LTIP Rights will vest subject to the following Performance Conditions consistent with the grant of rights to the CEO/MD 
approved by securityholders at the November 2021 Annual General Meeting.

Relative TSR Performance Condition (25%)
The relative TSR performance condition assesses INA’s percentile performance ranking against the constituents of the S&P/
ASX 200 A-REIT Index. 

TSR is the growth in the security price plus distributions, assuming distributions are reinvested. To minimise the impact of 
any short-term volatility, lngenia’s TSR will be calculated using the volume-weighted average of the closing security price 
over the 30 days up to and including the trading day prior to the start and the 30 days up to and including the end trading 
day of the LTI Performance Period (being from 1 October 2021 to 30 September 2024). Performance will be measured 
relative to the TSR of companies comprising the S&P/ASX 200 A-REIT Index over 3 years.

ROE Performance Condition (25%)
The ROE Performance Condition is intended to focus executive KMP on improving medium to long-term return on 
investment.

ROE is defined as underlying profit (as disclosed in annual reports) divided by the weighted average net assets (excluding 
the impact of asset revaluations on net assets between the FY22 LTIP Rights issue date and the FY22 LTIP Rights vesting 
date). The Board has discretion to exclude the dilutive impact of acquisitions or capital raisings that are considered in the 
best interests of the company if these occur within the final 12 months of the performance period. Any discretion applied will 
be disclosed. For FY22, the relevant metric is ROE achieved for FY24 on the following basis:

over the financial year. The Board has discretion to exclude the dilutive impact of acquisitions or capital raisings that are 
considered in the best interest of the company if these occur within the final 12 months of the performance period. Any 
discretion applied will be disclosed. The relevant metric is Compound Underlying EPS Growth for the period FY21 to FY24 
with the FY21 base year Underlying EPS being 23.6 cents per security.

Group Settlements Growth Performance Condition (25%)
Group Settlements Growth focuses on growing sales revenue and the creation of new yielding rental contracts across 
the Group from INA and the Development Joint Venture with Sun Communities. The hurdle measures the average annual 
growth in settlements of INA and the Development Joint Venture being measured over a three-year period ending on 
30 June 2024, with 380 settlements from the base year ended 30 June 2021.

The FY22 LTIP methodology determines security value as the VWAP of Ingenia securities in the 30-day trading period 
ending on 1 October 2021. The number of LTIP Rights granted in FY22 was calculated by dividing the LTIP award by the 
security value (as defined above). 

FY22 LTIP Rights grants will be entitled to Rights to stapled securities plus additional stapled securities equal to distributions 
paid during the vesting period. The Board aims to have executive KMP incentivised to grow distributions to security holders. 
This entitlement only accrues on rights that vest and is paid in the form of additional rights at the time of vesting. Executives 
do not receive distributions (cash or accrued) on securities underlying any Rights that do not vest or remain unexercised.

LTIPs Awarded in FY22
FY19 LTIP rights were tested on 1 October 2021 resulting in the combined vesting of 225,846 rights for Mr Owen, Ms Kwok 
and Mr Noble. This represented 48.4% of total FY19 LTIP rights on issue based on the full achievement of the TSR and 
Underlying EPS conditions and 55.7% achievement of the ROE performance condition, as shown below.

Under the Discretion Framework the Board reviewed the Return on Equity metric for the FY19 LTIs to remove the dilutive 
impact of the capital raise undertaken at the start of the pandemic in June 2020 increasing the LTI vesting outcome from 
70% to 86.7%. The ROE performance metric was adjusted to remove the dilutive impact of the capital raise undertaken at 
the start of the pandemic in June 2020. In reaching this decision, the Board considered that the June 2020 capital raise at 
the start of the pandemic was in the best interest of security holders but disadvantaged management. The Board noted 
that the ROE performance target was missed narrowly (7.9% versus a threshold of 8.0%). The June 2020 capital raise was a 
Board decision which was not anticipated at the time that targets were set and was in the best interest of security holders, 
positioning the balance sheet for growth.

3.  Non-executive Directors’ Remuneration

The Group’s remuneration policy for Non-Executive Directors (NEDs) aims to ensure that the Group attracts and retains 

suitably skilled and experienced individuals to serve on the Board and to remunerate them appropriately for their time, 

expertise and responsibilities and liabilities as public company directors. 

The Remuneration & Nomination Committee is responsible for reviewing and recommending to the Board any changes to 

Board and Committee remuneration, considering the size and scope of the Group’s activities and the responsibilities and 

liabilities of directors. In developing its recommendations, the Committee may take advice from external consultants.

NEDs are remunerated by way of cash and mandated superannuation. They do not participate in performance-based 

remuneration plans unless approved by security holders. The Group currently has no intention to remunerate NEDs by any 

way other than cash benefits.

The Board has introduced a policy guideline for NEDs to hold the equivalent of one year’s gross fees in Ingenia securities 

within a period of three years from the date of appointment. Once this hurdle has been met, NEDs are considered compliant 

with this guideline. All independent NEDs have self-funded the purchase of Ingenia securities on market as shown below in 

section 3.2.

4.  Other Remuneration Information

4.1.  Remuneration governance
The Board has an established RNC, which is directly responsible for reviewing and recommending remuneration 
arrangements for non-executive directors (NEDs), the Managing Director (MD) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and senior 
executives who report directly to the CEO. 

The RNC comprises the following, independent NEDs:

 – Amanda Heyworth (Chair);

 – Robert Morrison;

 – Sally Evans.

The RNC provides oversight for KMP and other executives, ensuring remuneration is set at appropriate levels to access the 
skills and capabilities the Group needs to operate successfully. 

The RNC operates under the delegated authority of the Board for some matters related to remuneration arrangements for 
both executives and non-executives and is required to make recommendations to the Board. The RNC also reviews and 
makes recommendations to the Board on incentive schemes. 

Other responsibilities of the RNC include: oversee the management of culture; review and monitor the succession plan for 
the Executive team; review and oversee implementation of the Group’s diversity and inclusion strategy and; monitor and 
oversee talent development and employee engagement initiatives.

The RNC is required to meet regularly throughout the year (a minimum of twice per year) and considers recommendations 
from management and external advisors. 

The Board is ultimately responsible for decisions made on recommendations from the RNC.

Use of discretion
Discretion adjustments are only made in exceptional circumstances which would have a material impact on reward 
and incentive outcomes. Such adjustments seek to align executive outcomes with company performance and investor 
experience, taking into account fairness for all stakeholders (investors, customers, employees, regulators and the 
community), and any breaches of reporting, audit, risk, compliance or regulatory obligations. 

During FY21, the Board exercised its discretion to reduce the STI payment to the CEO and CFO and to grant Ms Fisher, 
in addition to her contractual obligations, an ex-gratia payment of $0.1 million representing 3 months of her TFR and the 
retention of her FY19 and FY20 LTIP Rights, and FY20 STIP deferred component, which will vest pursuant to the Plan Rules.

4.2. External remuneration advisers
Guerdon Associates, initially engaged in March 2014, provided independent remuneration advice during FY22 in respect of 
KMP. Guerdon Associates have been commissioned by, engaged with, and addressed reports directly to the Chair of the 
RNC.

The Board is satisfied that the remuneration advice from Guerdon Associates was made free from undue influence of the 
KMP in respect of whom the advice related. A declaration of independence from Guerdon Associates was provided to the 
Board in respect of their engagement and their reports to the RNC.

While remuneration services were received, no remuneration recommendations as defined under Division 1, Part 1.2.98B of 
the Corporations Act, were made by Guerdon Associates.

Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited Annual Report 2022 Year in reviewFinancial Statements Remuneration ReportSustainabilityOur LeadersDirectors’ ReportNotes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 30 June 2022

1.  Summary of significant accounting policies

(a)  The Group
The financial report of Ingenia Communities Holdings 
Limited (the “Company”) comprises the consolidated 
financial report of the Company and its controlled entities, 
including Ingenia Communities Fund (“ICF” or the “Fund”) 
and Ingenia Communities Management Trust (“ICMT”) 
(collectively, the “Trusts”). The shares of the Company 
are stapled with the units of the Trusts and trade on 
the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) effectively 
as one security. Ingenia Communities RE Limited 
(“ICRE”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is 
the Responsible Entity of the Trusts. In this report, the 
Company and the Trusts are referred to collectively as the 
Group.

The constitutions of the Company and the Trusts require 
that, for as long as they remain jointly quoted on the ASX, 
the number of shares in the Company and of units in each 
trust shall remain equal and those security holders in the 
Company and unitholders in each trust shall be identical.

The stapling structure will cease to operate on the first to 
occur of:

 –

 –

the Company or either of the Trusts resolving by 
special resolution in accordance with its constitution to 
terminate the stapling provisions; or

the commencement of the winding up of the Company 
or either of the Trusts.

The financial report as at and for the year ended 
30 June 2022 was authorised for issue by the Directors 
on 24 August 2022.

(b)  Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, 
which has been prepared in accordance with Australian 
Accounting Standards, Australian Interpretations, 
other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian 
Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the 
Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting 
Standards as issued by the AASB and International 
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the 
International Accounting Standards Board.

As permitted by Instrument 2015/838, issued by the 
Australian Securities and Investments Commission, the 
financial statements and accompanying notes of the Group 
have been presented in the attached combined financial 
report.

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars 
and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand 
dollars ($’000), unless otherwise stated as permitted by 
Instrument 2016/191.

The financial report is prepared on a historical cost 
basis, except for investment properties, residents’ loans, 
derivative financial instruments, other financial assets and 
other financial liabilities, which are measured at fair value.

Where appropriate, comparative amounts have been 
restated to ensure consistency of disclosure throughout 
the financial report.

At 30 June 2022, the Group recorded a net current asset 
deficiency of $64,510,000. This deficiency is due to an 
increase in advanced deposits and payables compared to 
prior year. The Group has committed to capital expenditure 
on investment properties and inventories at reporting 
date of $72,338,452, which will be funded from operating 
cashflows and access to $310,200,000 of available 
undrawn bank facilities. Accordingly, there are reasonable 
grounds to believe that the Group will be able to pay its 
debts as and when they become due and payable; and the 
financial report of the Group has been prepared on a going 
concern basis.

(c) 

 Adoption of new and revised accounting 
standards

New accounting standards, amendments to accounting 
standards, and interpretations have been published that 
are not mandatory for the current reporting period and 
are not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s 
future financial reporting.

(d)  Principles of consolidation
The Group’s consolidated financial statements comprise 
the Company and its subsidiaries (including the Trusts). 
Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose 
entities) over which the Company or the Trusts have the 
power to govern the financial and operating policies, so as 
to obtain benefits from their activities.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared 
for the same reporting period as the parent, using 
consistent accounting policies. Intercompany balances and 
transactions, including dividends and unrealised gains and 
losses from intragroup transactions, have been eliminated.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the 
parent obtains control. They are deconsolidated from the 
date that control ceases.

Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost in the 
parent’s financial statements.

The Company was incorporated on 24 November 2011. In 
accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 3 Business 
Combinations, the stapling of the Company and the Trusts 
was regarded as a business combination. Under AASB 3, 
the stapling was accounted for as a reverse acquisition 
with ICF “acquiring” the Company and the Company 
subsequently being identified as the ongoing parent for 
preparing consolidated financial reports. Consequently, the 
consolidated financial statements are a continuation of the 
financial statements of the Trusts, and include the results of 
the Company from the date of incorporation.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

(e)  Business combinations and goodwill
Business combinations are accounted for using the 
acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured 
as the fair value aggregate of the consideration transferred 
at acquisition. For each business combination, the Group 
elects whether to measure the non-controlling interest 
in the acquiree at fair value or the proportionate share of 
the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition costs are 
expensed and included in other expenses.

When the Group acquires a business, it assesses financial 
assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification 
and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, 
economic circumstances, and pertinent conditions as at 
the acquisition date.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the 
acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree 
is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through 
profit or loss.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of 
the aggregate consideration transferred and the amount 
recognised for non-controlling interest over the fair value 
of net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more 
frequently if changes in circumstances indicate that 
it might impaired. An impairment loss is recognised 
when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its 
recoverable amount, calculated as the higher of fair value 
less costs of disposal and the value in use. Impairment 
losses are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of 
Comprehensive Income.

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are 
grouped at the lowest levels for which goodwill is 
monitored for management purposes and allocated to 
cash generating units (“CGU”). The assumptions used for 
determining the recoverable amount of the CGU are based 
on the expectation for the future, utilising both internal and 
external sources of data and relevant market trends.

(h)  Foreign currency

Functional and presentation currencies
The presentation currency of the Group, and functional 
currency of the Company, is the Australian dollar.

Translation of foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currency are initially recorded in 
the functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing at 
the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities 
denominated in foreign currency are retranslated at 
the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance date. All 
differences in the consolidated financial report are taken 
to the statement of comprehensive income, with the 
exception of differences on foreign currency borrowings 
designated as a hedge against a net investment in a foreign 
entity. These are taken directly to equity until the disposal 
of the net investment at which time they are recognised in 
the statement of comprehensive income.

A non-monetary item that is measured at fair value in a 
foreign currency is translated using the exchange rates at 
the date when the fair value was determined.

(i)  Leases
The Group assesses at contract inception whether a 
contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract 
conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset 
for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The Group applies a single recognition and measurement 
approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and 
leases of low-value assets which are recognised as an 
expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The 
Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments 
and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the 
underlying assets.

Right-of-use assets
The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the 
commencement date of the lease. Right-of-use assets are 
measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and 
impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of 
lease liabilities.

(f)  Assets held for sale
Components of the entity are classified as held for sale if 
their carrying value will be recovered principally through a 
sale transaction rather than through continuing use.

The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of 
lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and 
lease payments made at or before the commencement 
date less any lease incentives received.

They are measured at the lower of their carrying value 
and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as 
investment property, which are carried at fair value.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis 
over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful 
lives of the assets.

The liabilities of an asset classified as held for sale are 
presented separately from other liabilities on the face of 
the balance sheet. Details of assets and liabilities held for 
sale are given at Note 10.

(g)  Dividends and distributions
A liability for any dividend or distribution declared on or 
before the end of the reporting period is recognised on 
the balance sheet, in the reporting period to which the 
dividend or distribution pertains.

Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group 
recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of 
lease payments to be made over the lease term.

The lease payments include fixed payments less any lease 
incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend 
on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid 
under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also 
include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably 
certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of 
penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects 
the Group exercising the option to terminate.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index 
or a rate are recognised as expenses in the period in which 
the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the 
Group uses the interest rate implicit in the lease. After 
the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is 
increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced 
for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying 
amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a 
modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the 
lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting 
from a change in an index or rate used to determine such 
lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an 
option to purchase the underlying asset. The Group’s lease 
liabilities are included in Borrowings (Note 20).

Leases for investment property which apply the fair value 
model are classified as investment property per AASB 140 
Investment Properties.

(j)  Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated 
depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such 
cost includes the cost of replacing part of the property, 
plant and equipment, and borrowing costs for long-term 
construction projects if the recognition criteria are met. 
When significant parts of property, plant and equipment 
require replacing at intervals, the Group recognises 
such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives 
and depreciates them accordingly. Likewise, when a 
major inspection is performed, the cost is recognised 
in the carrying value of the plant and equipment as a 
replacement, if the recognition criteria are satisfied. 
All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised 
in profit or loss as incurred. The present value of the 
expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after 
its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the 
recognition criteria for a provision are met.

(k)  Financial assets and liabilities
Current and non-current financial assets and liabilities 
within the scope of AASB 9 Financial Instruments are 
classified as; fair value through profit or loss; fair value 
through other comprehensive income; or amortised 
cost. The Group determines the classification of its 
financial assets and liabilities at initial recognition with 
the classification depending on the purpose for which 
the asset or liability was acquired or issued. Financial 
assets and liabilities are initially recognised at fair value 
plus directly attributable transaction costs, unless their 
classification is at fair value through profit or loss. They 
are subsequently measured at fair value or amortised cost 
using the effective interest method.

The fair value of financial instruments actively traded in 
organised financial markets are determined by reference to 
quoted market bid prices at close of business on balance 
sheet date. For those with no active market, fair values are 
determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques 
include: using recent arm’s length market transactions; 
reference to the current market value of another 
substantially similar instruments; discounted cash flow 

analysis; option pricing models; making use of available and 
supportable market data and keeping judgemental inputs 
to a minimum.

Impairment of non-financial assets

(l) 
Assets other than investment property and financial assets 
carried at fair value are tested for impairment whenever 
events or circumstance changes indicate that the carrying 
value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is 
recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying 
value exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable 
amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs 
to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing 
impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for 
which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that 
are largely independent of the cash inflows from other 
assets or groups of assets. Non-financial assets excluding 
goodwill which have suffered impairment are reviewed for 
possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

(m)  Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet and cash 
flow statements comprise cash at bank, cash in hand, and 
short-term deposits that are readily convertible to known 
amounts of cash, and subject to an insignificant risk of 
changes in value.

(n)  Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at 
original invoice amount, and subsequently adjusted for 
ECL. An allowance is recognised by analysing the age 
of outstanding balances and applying historical default 
percentages. Historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect 
current and forward-looking observable data affecting the 
ability of customers to settle their debts.

Inventories

(o) 
The Group holds inventory in relation to the acquisition and 
development of lifestyle homes, as well as service station 
fuel and supplies.

Inventories are held at the lower of cost and net realisable 
value.

Costs of inventories comprise all acquisition costs, costs 
of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the 
inventories to their present location and condition. 
Inventory includes work in progress and raw materials used 
in the production of lifestyle home units.

Net realisable value is determined based on an estimated 
selling price in the ordinary course of business less 
estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs 
necessary to make the sale.

(p)  Derivative and financial instruments
The Group uses derivative financial instruments such 
as interest rate swaps to hedge its risks associated 
with interest rate fluctuations. Such derivative financial 
instruments are initially recognised at fair value on 
the date the contract is entered and are subsequently 
remeasured to fair value and included in the statement of 
comprehensive income in the period they arise, including 
the corresponding tax effect.

70

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited1. 

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

The Group’s policy applied to capitalised development 
costs is as follows:

(q)  Investment property
Land and buildings have the function of an investment 
and are regarded as composite assets. In accordance with 
applicable accounting standards, the buildings, including 
plant and equipment, are not depreciated.

Investment property includes property under construction, 
tourism cabins and associated amenities.

Investment properties are measured initially at cost, 
including transaction costs. Subsequently, investment 
properties are stated at fair value, reflecting market 
conditions at reporting date. Gains or losses arising from 
changes in the fair values of investment properties are 
included in the statement of comprehensive income in the 
period they arise, including the corresponding tax effect.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an 
asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction 
between market participants at measurement date, in 
the principal market for the asset or liability, or the most 
advantageous market in its absence. In determining the 
fair value of certain assets, recent market offers have been 
taken into consideration.

It is the Group’s policy to have all investment properties 
independently valued at intervals of not more than two 
years. It is the policy of the Group to review the fair value 
of each investment property every six months and revalue 
investment properties to fair value when their carrying 
value materially differs to their fair values.

In determining fair values, the Group considers relevant 
information including the capitalisation of rental streams 
using market assessed capitalisation rates, expected 
net cash flows discounted to their present value using 
market determined risk-adjusted discount rates, and 
other available market data such as recent comparable 
transactions. The assessment of fair value of investment 
properties does not take into account potential capital 
gains tax assessable.

Intangible assets

(r) 
An intangible asset arising from software development 
expenditure is recognised only when the Group can 
demonstrate: the technical feasibility of completing the 
intangible asset so that it will be available for use; how 
the asset will generate future economic benefits; the 
availability of resources to complete the asset; and the 
ability to measure reliably the expenditure during its 
development. Costs capitalised include external direct 
costs of materials and service, direct payroll, and payroll 
related costs of employee time spent on projects.

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

Software and associated development to capitalised 
development costs (assets in use)

 – Useful life: Finite amortisation method using seven years 

on a straight-line basis; and

 –

Impairment test: Amortisation method reviewed at 
each financial year-end; closing carrying value reviewed 
annually for indicators of impairment.

Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is capitalised 
only when it increases the future economic benefits 
embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other 
expenditure is expensed, as incurred. Gains or losses 
arising from the derecognition of an intangible asset are 
measured as the difference between the net disposal 
proceeds, and the carrying value of the asset. They are 
recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

Intangible assets acquired separately, are initially 
recognised at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired 
in a business combination are their fair values as at the 
date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, acquired 
intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated 
amortisation and impairment losses.

(s)  Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost, 
and due to their short-term nature, are not discounted. 
They represent liabilities for goods and services provided 
to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which 
are unpaid. They are recognised when the Group becomes 
obliged to make future payments in respect of the 
purchase of the goods and services.

(t)  Provisions, including employee benefits

General
Provisions are recognised when: the Group has a present 
obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event; 
it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying 
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; 
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount. 
When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be 
reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, the 
reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only 
when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense 
relating to a provision is presented in the statement of 
comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.

Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary 
benefits, and annual leave expected to be settled within 
twelve months of the reporting date, are recognised 
in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting 
date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be 
paid when the liabilities are settled. Expenses for non-
accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is 
taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable.

71

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

Long service leave
The liability for long service leave is recognised and 
measured as the present value of expected future 
payments made in respect of services provided by 
employees, up to the reporting date, using the projected 
unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected 
future wage and salary levels, experience of employees 
departing, and period of service. Expected future 
payments are discounted using market yields on high 
quality corporate bonds at the reporting date, with terms 
to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as 
possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

(u)  Resident loans
The loans are repayable on the departure of the resident 
and classified as financial liabilities at fair value through 
profit and loss with resulting fair value adjustments 
recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 
The fair value of the obligation is measured as the 
ingoing contribution plus the resident’s share of capital 
appreciation to reporting date. Although the expected 
average residency term is more than ten years, these 
obligations are classified as current liabilities, as required 
by Accounting Standards. This is because the Group does 
not have an unconditional right to defer settlement to more 
than twelve months after reporting date.

This liability is stated net of accrued deferred management 
fees at reporting date, as the Group’s contracts with 
residents require net settlement of those obligations.

Refer to Note 1(cc) and Note 29(j) for information 
regarding the valuation of resident loans.

(v)  Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recorded at the fair value of 
the consideration received, less directly attributable 
transaction costs associated with the borrowings. 
After initial recognition, borrowings are subsequently 
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest 
rate method. Under this method, fees, costs, discounts 
and premiums that are yield related are included as part 
of the carrying value of the borrowing, and amortised 
over its expected life.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities, unless the 
Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement to 
more than twelve months after reporting date.

Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred, except 
where they are directly attributable to the acquisition, 
construction or production of a qualifying asset. When this 
is the case, they are capitalised as part of the acquisition 
cost of that asset.

(w)  Issued equity
Issued and paid up securities are recognised at the fair 
value of the consideration received by the Group. Any 
transaction costs arising on issue of ordinary securities are 
recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the security 
proceeds received.

(x)  Revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised 
when performance obligations have been met and control 
of the goods or services are transferred to the customer 
at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the 
Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods 
or services. The following specific recognition criteria must 
also be met before revenue is recognised:

Rental income
Rental income from investment properties is recognised 
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Fixed rental 
increases that do not represent direct compensation for 
underlying cost increases or capital expenditures are 
recognised on a straight-line basis until the next market 
review date. Rent paid in advance is recognised as 
unearned income.

Sale of homes
Revenue from the sale of lifestyle homes is recognised 
at the point in time when control of the lifestyle home is 
transferred to the customer, on settlement of the home.

Management and other fee income
Revenue from rendering of services is recognised in 
accordance with performance obligations under the terms 
and conditions of the service agreements. The Group 
recognises management and other fee income over 
time because the customer simultaneously receives and 
consumes the benefits provided to them.

Distribution income
Distribution income is recognised when the Group’s right 
to receive the payment is established.

Interest income
Interest income is recognised as the interest accrues, using 
the effective interest rate method.

Service station sales
Service station sales, food and beverage revenue 
represents the revenue earned from the provision of 
products and services to external parties. Sales revenue 
is only recognised at the point in time when control of the 
assets is transferred to the customer.

(y)  Share-based payment transactions
Certain Group senior executives receive remuneration in 
the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby 
employees render services as consideration for equity 
instruments (equity-settled transactions). The Group 
does not have any cash-settled share-based payment 
transactions in the financial year.

72

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited1. 

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

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

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately 
vest, except for equity-settled transactions where vesting 
is conditional upon a market or non-vesting condition. 
These are treated as vesting irrespective of whether or not 
the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided 
that all other performance and service conditions are 
satisfied.

When the terms of an equity-settled transaction are 
modified, the minimum expense recognised is the expense 
as if the original terms of the award are met. An additional 
expense is recognised for any modification that increases 
the total fair value of the transaction, or is otherwise 
beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of 
modification.

When an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as 
if it vested on the date of cancellation. Any expense not 
yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. 
This includes any award where non-vesting conditions 
within the control of either the Group or the employee are 
not met. However, if a new award is substituted for the 
cancelled award, and designated as a replacement on the 
date that it is granted, the cancelled and new awards are 
treated as if they were a modification of the original award, 
as described in the previous paragraph.

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

(z)  Income tax

Current income tax
The Company, ICMT and their respective subsidiaries are 
subject to Australian income tax.

Under the current tax legislation, ICF and its subsidiaries 
are not liable to pay Australian income tax if their taxable 
income (including any assessable capital gains) is fully 
distributed to security holders each year. Tax allowances 
for building and fixtures depreciation are distributed 
to security holders via the tax-deferred component of 
distributions.

Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the 
amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the 
taxation authorities, based on the current period’s taxable 
income. The tax rates and laws used to compute the 
amount are those that are enacted, or substantively 
enacted at the reporting date.

The subsidiaries that previously held the Group’s foreign 
properties may be subject to corporate income tax and 
withholding tax in the countries they operate. Under 
current Australian income tax legislation, security holders 
may be entitled to receive a foreign tax credit for this 
withholding tax.

ICF has entered the Attribution Managed Investment Trust 
(AMIT) regime.

Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax represents tax (including withholding 
tax) expected to be payable or recoverable by taxable 
entities on differences between tax bases of assets and 
liabilities, and their carrying value for financial reporting 
purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured 
at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when 
the asset is realised through continuing use, or the liability 
is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been 
enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Income 
taxes related to items recognised directly in equity are not 
recognised against income.

Tax consolidation
The Company, ICMT, and their respective subsidiaries 
have formed a tax consolidation group with the Company 
or ICMT being the head entity. The head and controlled 
entities in the tax consolidation group continue to account 
for their own current and deferred tax amounts. Each 
tax consolidated group has applied a group allocation 
approach in determining the appropriate amount of 
current taxes and deferred taxes to allocate to the 
members therein.

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, 
the head entity of each tax consolidated group also 
recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and 
the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses, 
and unused tax credits assumed from entities in their 
respective tax consolidated group.

Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements 
with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as 
amounts receivable from, or payable to, other entities in 
the Group.

(aa) Goods and services tax (“GST”)
Revenue, expenses and assets (with the exception of 
receivables) are recognised net of the amount of GST, to 
the extent that the GST is recoverable from the taxation 
authority. Where GST is not recoverable, it is recognised as 
part of the cost of the acquisition, or as an expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST. The 
net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to the tax 
authority, is included in the balance sheet as an asset or 
liability.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement 
on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows 
arising from investing and financing activities, which are 
recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authorities, are 
classified as operating cash flows.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

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

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

The Group’s investment in its joint venture with Sun 
Communities is accounted for using the equity method.

Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture 
is initially recognised at cost. The carrying value of the 
investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Group’s 
share of net assets of the joint venture since the acquisition 
date. Goodwill relating to the joint venture is included in 
the carrying value of the investment and is not tested for 
impairment separately.

The statement of profit or loss reflects the Group’s share of 
the results of operations of the joint venture. Any change 
in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) of those investees 
is presented as part of the Group’s OCI. In addition, when 
there has been a change recognised directly in the equity 
of the joint venture, the Group recognises its share of any 
changes, when applicable, in the statement of changes 
in equity. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from 
transactions between the Group and the joint venture are 
eliminated to the extent of the interest in the joint venture.

The aggregate of the Group’s share of profit or loss of 
a joint venture is shown on the face of the statement of 
profit or loss outside operating profit and represents 
profit or loss after tax and non-controlling interests in the 
subsidiaries of the joint venture.

The financial statements of the joint venture are prepared 
for the same reporting period as the Group. When 
necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting 
policies in line with those of the Group.

After application of the equity method, the Group 
determines whether it is necessary to recognise an 
impairment loss on its investment in its joint venture. 
At each reporting date, the Group determines whether 
there is objective evidence that the investment in the joint 
venture is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group 
calculates the amount of impairment as the difference 
between the recoverable amount of the joint venture and 
its carrying value, and then recognises the loss within the 
statement of comprehensive income.

Upon loss of joint control, the Group measures and 
recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any 
difference between the carrying value of the joint venture 
upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the 
fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from 
disposal is recognised in profit or loss.

(cc)  Fair value measurement
The Group measures financial instruments, such as 
derivatives, investment properties, resident loans, certain 
non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, at fair 
value at each balance sheet date. Refer to Note 29.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an 
asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction 
between market participants at measurement date. The 
fair value measurement is based on the presumption that 
the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes 
place either:

 –

 –

In the principal market for the asset or liability; or

In the absence of a principal market, in the most 
advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be 
accessible to the Group.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using 
the assumptions market participants use when pricing the 
asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in 
their economic best interest. A fair value measurement 
of a non-financial asset takes into account a market 
participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using 
the asset in its best use, or by selling it to another market 
participant that would use the asset in its best use.

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate 
in the circumstances, and for which sufficient data are 
available to measure fair value - maximising the use of 
relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of 
unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured 
or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised 
within the fair value hierarchy, described below, based on 
the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value 
measurement as a whole:

 –

 –

 –

Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active 
markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level 
of input that is significant to the fair value measurement 
is directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level 
input that is significant to the fair value measurement is 
unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial 
statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines 
whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the 
hierarchy by reassessing categorisation at the end of the 
reporting period. This is based on the lowest level input 
that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole.

The Group’s Audit and Risk Committee determines the 
policies and procedures for both recurring fair value 
measurement, such as investment properties and resident 
loans, and for non-recurring measurement.

External valuers are involved for valuation of significant 
assets, such as properties and significant liabilities. 
Selection criteria include market knowledge, experience 
and qualifications; reputation; independence; and whether 
professional standards are maintained.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

On a six month basis, management presents valuation 
results to the Investment Committee as well as the Audit 
and Risk Committee once approved. This includes a review 
of major assumptions used in the valuations.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has 
determined classes of assets and liabilities based on nature, 
characteristics and risks of the asset or liability, and the 
level of the fair value hierarchy (see Note 29).

(dd)  Earnings per share (“EPS”)
Basic EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to 
members of the Group, divided by the weighted average 
number of ordinary securities, adjusted for any bonus 
element.

Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to 
the Group, divided by the weighted average number 
of ordinary securities and dilutive potential ordinary 
securities, adjusted for any bonus element.

(ee)  Pending accounting standards
In the current period, the Group has adopted all the 
new and revised accounting standards, amendments to 
accounting standards, and interpretations that are relevant 
to its operations and effective for the current annual 
reporting period.

(ff)   Current versus non-current classification
The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance 
sheet based on current/non-current classification. An asset 
is current when it is:

 – Expected to be realised, or intended to be sold, or 

consumed in the normal operating cycle;

 – Held primarily for the purpose of trading;

 – Expected to be realised within twelve months after the 

reporting period; or

 – Cash or cash equivalents, unless restricted from being 

exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve 
months after reporting period.

A liability is current when it is:

 – Expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;

 – Held primarily for the purpose of trading;

 – Due to be settled within twelve months after the 

reporting period; or

 – There is no unconditional right to defer settlement of 

the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting 
period.

All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current. 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-
current assets and liabilities.

(gg)  Government grants
Government grants are recognised where there is 
reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and 
all attached conditions will be complied with. When the 
grant relates to an expense, it is recognised net of the 
related expense for which it is intended to compensate. 
There are no unfilled conditions or other contingencies 
attached to the grants.

 Accounting estimates and judgements
2. 
The preparation of financial statements requires the use 
of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the 
Group to exercise its judgement in the process of applying 
its accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree 
of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions 
and estimates are significant to the financial statements are 
disclosed below.

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and 
are based on historical experience and other factors, 
including expectations of future events that are believed to 
be reasonable under the circumstances.

(a)  Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning 
the future. The resulting accounting estimates, by 
definition, may not equal the related actual results. The 
estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk 
of causing a material adjustment to the carrying value 
of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are 
discussed below.

i. 

 Valuation of investment property, other financial 
assets and other financial liabilities

The Group has investment properties and assets held for 
sale which together represent the estimated fair value of 
the Group’s investment property. Other financial assets 
represent the Groups investment in a number of unlisted 
property funds. Other financial liabilities relate to a profit 
share arrangement with a third-party which is carried at 
fair value.

The carrying value of these assets reflect certain 
assumptions about expected future rentals, rent-free 
periods, operating costs and appropriate discount 
and capitalisation rates. The valuation assumption for 
properties to be developed reflect sales prices for new 
homes, sales rates, new rental tariffs, estimates of capital 
expenditure, discount rates and projected property growth 
rates. The valuation assumptions for deferred management 
fee villages reflect average length of stay, unit market 
values, estimates of capital expenditure, contract terms 
with residents, discount rates and projected property 
growth rates.

In forming these assumptions, the Group considered 
information about recent sales activity, current market 
rents, discount rates, capitalisation rates for properties 
similar to those owned by the Group, as well as 
independent valuations of the Group’s property.

(a)  Description of segments
The Group invests predominantly in rental properties 
located in Australia with five reportable segments:

 –

 –

 –

 –

Lifestyle Development – comprising the development 
and sale of lifestyle homes;

Lifestyle Rental – comprising long-term accommodation 
within lifestyle and rental communities;

Ingenia Gardens – rental villages;

Ingenia Holidays– comprising tourism and rental 
accommodation within holiday parks;

 – Fuel, Food & Beverage Services – consists of the Group’s 

investment in service station and food & beverage 
operations adjoined to Ingenia Holiday communities;

 – Corporate & Other – comprises the Group’s remaining 

assets and operating activities including, funds 
management, development joint venture and corporate 
overheads.

The Group has identified its operating segments based 
on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the 
chief operating decision maker in assessing performance 
and determining the allocation of resources. Other parts of 
the Group are neither an operating segment nor part of an 
operating segment are included in Corporate & Other.

2. 

 Accounting estimates and judgements 
(continued)

ii.  Valuation of inventories
The Group has inventory in the form of lifestyle homes 
and service station fuel and supplies, which it carries 
at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Estimates 
of net realisable value are based on the most reliable 
evidence available at the time of estimation, the amount 
the inventories are expected to realise and the estimated 
costs of completion. Key assumptions require the use of 
management judgement, and are continually reviewed.

iii.  Fair value of derivatives
The fair value of derivative assets and liabilities is based 
on assumptions of future events, and involves significant 
estimates. Given the complex nature of these instruments, 
and various assumptions that are used in calculating 
mark-to-market values, the Group rely on counterparty 
valuations for derivative values. The counterparty 
valuations are usually based on mid-market rates, and 
calculates using the main variables of the forward market 
curve, time and volatility.

iv. 

 Valuation of net assets acquired in the business 
combination

Upon recognising the acquisition and the associated 
goodwill balance, management uses estimations of the 
fair value of assets and liabilities assumed at the date of 
acquisition, involving judgements related to valuation of 
investment property as noted above.

(b)   Critical judgements in applying the entity’s 

accounting policies

There were no judgements, apart from those involving 
estimations, that management has made in the process 
of applying the entity’s accounting policies that had 
a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the 
financial report.

Effective from 1 July 2012, ICMT and its Australian domiciled owned subsidiaries formed a tax consolidation group with ICMT 
being the head entity. Under the tax funding agreement the funding of tax within the tax group is based on taxable income 
as if that entity was not a member of the tax group.

Upon entering into the ICMT tax consolidated group, the tax cost bases for certain assets were reset, resulting in income tax 
benefits being recorded.

 The carrying value of Latitude One represents 100% of the property value. A profit share arrangement is in place with a third-party, the liability for 
which is carried at fair value and classified as a non-current financial liability.

Investment properties are carried at fair value in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy in the Group’s 30 June 2022 
Annual Report (Note 1 (q)). 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the 
measurement date in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in its absence, the most advantageous market. 

In determining fair values, the Group considers relevant information including the capitalisation of rental streams using 
market assessed capitalisation rates. For investment properties under development the Group assesses fair value based 
on expected net cash flows discounted to their present value using market determined risk-adjusted discount rates and 
other available market data such as recent comparable transactions. As such the fair value of an investment property under 
development will differ depending on the number of settlements realised and the stage that each development is at. 

In determining the fair value of certain assets, recent market offers have been taken into consideration.

Refer to Note 11(e) for inputs used in determining fair value.

Investment properties (continued)

Capitalisation method
Under the capitalisation method, fair value is estimated using assumptions regarding the expectation of future benefits. The 
capitalisation method involves estimating the expected income projections of the property and applying a capitalisation rate 
into perpetuity. The capitalisation rate is based on current market evidence. Future income projections take into account 
occupancy, rental income and operating expenses. 

Discounted cash flow method
Under the discounted cash flow method, fair value is estimated using assumptions regarding the benefits and liabilities of 
ownership over the asset’s life including an exit or terminal value. This method involves the projection of a series of cash 
flows on a real property interest. To this projected cash flow series, a market-derived discount rate is applied to establish the 
present value of the income stream associated with the asset. The exit yield normally reflects the exit value expected to be 
achieved upon selling the asset and is a function of the risk-adjusted returns of the asset and expected capitalisation rate.

The duration of the cash flows and the specific timing of inflows and outflows are determined by events such as rent 
reviews, lease renewal and related re-letting, redevelopment or refurbishment as well as the development of new units. 
The appropriate duration is typically driven by market behaviour that is a characteristic of the class of real property. Periodic 
cash flow is typically estimated as gross income less vacancy, non-recoverable expenses, collection losses, lease incentives, 
maintenance cost, agent and commission costs and other operating and management expenses. The series of periodic net 
underlying cash flows, along with an estimate of the terminal value anticipated at the end of the projection period, is then 
discounted.

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited13.  Intangibles (continued)
Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate consideration transferred and the amount 
recognised for non-controlling interest over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. 

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. 
An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, calculated as the 
higher of fair value less costs of disposal and the value in use. 

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which goodwill is monitored for 
management purposes and allocated to cash generating units (CGU). The assumptions used for determining the recoverable 
amount of the CGU are based on the expectation for the future, utilising both internal and external sources of data and 
relevant market trends.

Eighth Gate Funds CGU 
The recoverable amount of the Eighth Funds CGU has been determined based on a discounted cash flow basis. This method 
involves the projection of a series of cash flows of the funds management business. The projected cash flows have been 
updated to reflect an expected change in cash flows from the funds management business. To this projected cash flow 
series, a pre-tax market-derived discount rate of 18% (30 Jun 2021: 17%) and a terminal growth rate of 2% (30 Jun 2021: 
2%) was applied to establish the present value of the income streams associated with the CGU. The discounted cash flow 
was then tested against appropriate business EBIT multiples and a sensitivity analysis was conducted. As a result of this 
analysis, an impairment of $1,436,000 has been recognised in the current year against goodwill with a carrying amount 
of $4,672,000 as at 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: $6,108,000). Changes in the funds management business could lead to 
further impairment.

17. 
From the date of acquisition, Seachange contributed $20,575,000 of revenue and $2,530,000 of profit before tax from 
continuing operations of the Group. If the combination had taken place at the beginning of FY22, the Group’s revenue would 
have increased by $35,271,000 and the profit before tax would have increased by $4,337,000.

The goodwill recognised is primarily attributed to the expected synergies and other benefits from combining the assets and 
activities of Seachange with those of the Group, resulting in a new premium brand for the Group in the growth corridor of 
South East Queensland, integration of a highly-regarded and experienced management team and building development 
capacity in one of the Group’s key markets. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. 

Transaction costs of $18,000,000, predominantly stamp duty and advisory costs, have been expensed and are included 
in business combination transaction costs in the statement of profit or loss and are part of investing cash flows in the 
statement of cash flows.

The availability of carried forward tax losses of $9.4 million to the ICMT tax consolidated group is subject to recoupment 
rules at the time of recoupment. Further, the rate at which these losses can be utilised is determined by reference to market 
values at the time of tax consolidation and subsequent events. Accordingly, a portion of these carried forward tax losses 
may not be available in the future. 

The Group offsets tax assets and liabilities, if and only if, it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and 
current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax 
authority.

There were commitments for capital expenditure on investment properties and inventories contracted but not provided for 
at reporting date of $72,338,452 (30 Jun 2021: $74,145,936).

Ingenia committed to invest up to $3.0 million to a special purpose vehicle (SPV) with Land Lease Home Loans (LLHL) a 
loan originator specifically focused on providing secured home loans to residents of land lease communities. The SPV funds 
loans to borrowers seeking to acquire a new lifestyle home and reside in an Ingenia Lifestyle community. The SPV benefits 
from an equitable assignment of the loans made by LLHL. LLHL takes a first loss risk on the loans up to 5%. As at 30 June 
2022, Ingenia has invested $1.0 million into the funding of resident loans (30 Jun 2021: nil). The amount was fully repaid on 
16 August 2022 and the commitment was released following LLHL obtaining third party funding. 

26.  Contingent liabilities
The Group has the following contingent liabilities:

 – Bank guarantees totalling $29.8 million provided for under the $780.0 million bank facility.

27.  Share based payment transactions
The Group’s current Rights Plan provides for the issuance of rights to eligible employees, which upon a determination by 
the Board that the performance conditions attached to the rights have been met, result in the issue of stapled securities in 
the Group for each right. The Rights Plan was approved at the 10 November 2020 Annual General Meeting and contains 
the following:

(a)  Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP)
STIP performance rights are awarded to eligible employees whose achievements, behaviour, and focus meet the Group’s 
business plan and individual Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) measured over the financial year. STIP rights are subject to 
a one year vesting deferral period from the issue date and allow for certain lapsing conditions within the deferral period, 
should certain conditions occur. Under the FY21 Rights Plan, 33.3% of the maximum STI for the CEO and 50.0% for the CFO 
and CIO & GC will be paid in cash, with the balance being a deferred equity element. 

The deferred expense for conditional STIP rights recognised for the period is $526,863 (30 Jun 2021: $535,013) and is based 
on an estimate of the Group’s and individual employee’s current period performance. The total value of STIP rights is subject 
to adjustment up until the final full-year audited result is known and KPIs reliably measured, being 1 October 2022.

(b)  Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP)
LTIP performance rights are granted to individuals to align their focus to increase alignment with security holder’s interests. 

The FY22 LTIP Rights are subject to the following LTIP Performance Conditions:

 –

 –

 –

 –

25% based on Total Shareholder Return (TSR); 

25% based on Return on Equity (ROE).

25% based on underlying Earnings Per Security (EPS) grow; and

25% based on home settlements growth.

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedIngenia Communities Holdings Limited Annual Report 2022 Year in reviewFinancial Statements Remuneration ReportSustainabilityOur LeadersDirectors’ Report27.  Share based payment transactions (continued)
TSR is benchmarked against the constituents of the ASX 200 A-REIT Index whilst ROE, Underlying EPS and home 
settlements growth is benchmarked against internal targets. The number of LTIP rights that will vest will depend on the 
performance of each hurdle.

The fair value of LTIPs is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in reserves. The fair 
value is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The total LTIP expense recognised for the financial year 
was $809,499 (30 Jun 2021: $668,737). 

(c) Talent Rights Grant (TRG)
TRG are granted for the purpose of retaining and incentivising non-KMP employees who have been identified as having a 
key role in the successful achievement of the Group’s strategy. 

In order to vest, the TRG Rights are subject to the Group’s Rights Plan, employees remaining in service and their satisfactory 
performance.

The fair value is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, with 50% vesting at year 2 and the remaining 
vesting in the year 3. The total TRG expense recognised for the financial year was $458,564 (30 Jun 2021: $413,537).

Prior to her appointment as a KMP Ms Kwok was granted 44,446 TRG Rights, with 50% vesting on 31 July 2022 and the 
remaining 50% vesting on 31 July 2023.

(d) Fixed Remuneration Rights (FRR)
Fixed Remuneration of executive KMP is reviewed annually, with any adjustments subject to Board approval. When 
an adjustment to Fixed Remuneration is approved by the Board, the delivery of all or part of any increase in Fixed 
Remuneration may, at the Board’s discretion, be in the form of an annual grant of Rights to INA Securities. The Board 
considers that delivery in Rights, instead of cash, further aligns the interests of the executive with security holders. The total 
FRR expense recognised for the financial year was $342,180 (30 Jun 2021: $35,000).

One Right equates to one security in the Group. Movements in rights during the year were as follows:

(i) 30 June 2022

Outstanding at beginning of year

Lapsed during the year

Granted during the year

Exercised during the year

Outstanding at end of year

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedIngenia Communities Holdings Limited Annual Report 2022 Year in reviewFinancial Statements Remuneration ReportSustainabilityOur LeadersDirectors’ Report28.  Capital management
The Group aims to meet its strategic objectives, operational needs and maximise returns to security holders through the 
appropriate use of debt and equity, taking account of the additional financial risks of higher debt levels. 

In determining the optimal capital structure, the Group takes into account a number of factors, including the views of 
investors and the market in general, the capital needs of its portfolio, the relative cost of debt versus equity, the execution 
risk of raising equity or debt, and the additional financial risks of debt including increased volatility of earnings due to 
exposure to interest rate movements, the refinance risk of maturing debt facilities and the potential for acceleration prior to 
maturity. 

In assessing this risk, the Group takes into account the relative stability of its income flows, the predictability of its expenses, 
its debt maturity profile, the degree of hedging and the overall level of debt as measured by gearing.

The actual capital structure at a point in time is the product of a number of factors, many of which are market driven and 
to various degrees outside of the control of the Group, particularly the impact of revaluations, the availability of new equity 
and the liquidity in real estate markets. While the Group periodically determines the optimal capital structure, the ability 
to achieve the optimal structure may be impacted by market conditions and the actual position may often differ from the 
optimal position.

One measure of the Group’s capital position is through the Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) which is a key covenant (less than 55%) 
under the Group’s $780.0 million common terms debt facilities. LVR is calculated as the sum of bank debt, bank guarantees, 
ground leases, and interest rate swaps, less cash at bank, as a percentage of the value of properties pledged as security. The 
Group’s strategy is to maintain an LVR range of 30-40%. As at 30 June 2022, the LVR of 25.7% (30 June 2021: 22.2%).

In addition, the Group monitors Interest Cover Ratio (ICR) as defined under the common terms of the debt facilities. At 
30 June 2022, the Total Interest Cover Ratio was 8.51x (30 Jun 2021: 16.59x) and the Core Interest Cover Ratio was 7.45x 
(30 Jun 2021: 12.86x). The covenant for total ICR and Core ICR is greater than 2x.

29.  Financial instruments

(a)  Introduction
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short-term deposits, receivables, payables, interest bearing 
liabilities, other financial liabilities, and derivative financial instruments.

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, credit risk and 
liquidity risk. The Group manages its exposure to these risks primarily through its Investment, Derivatives, and Borrowing 
policy. The policy sets out various targets aimed at restricting the financial risk taken by the Group. Management reviews 
actual positions of the Group against these targets on a regular basis. If the target is not achieved, or the forecast is unlikely 
to be achieved, a plan of action is, where appropriate, put in place with the aim of meeting the target within an agreed 
timeframe. 

Depending on the circumstances of the Group at a point in time, it may be that positions outside of the Investment, 
Derivatives, and Borrowing policy are accepted and no plan of action is put in place to meet the treasury targets, because, 
for example, the risks associated with bringing the Group into compliance outweigh the benefits. The adequacy of the 
Investment, Derivatives, and Borrowing policy in addressing the risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments is 
reviewed on a regular basis. 

While the Group aims to meet its Investment, Derivatives, and Borrowing policy targets, many factors influence its 
performance, and it is probable that at any one time it will not meet all its targets. For example, the Group may be unable 
to negotiate the extension of bank facilities sufficiently ahead of time, so that it fails to achieve its liquidity target. When 
refinancing loans it may be unable to achieve the desired maturity profile or the desired level of flexibility of financial 
covenants, because of the cost of such terms or their unavailability. Hedging instruments may not be available, or their cost 
may outweigh the benefit of risk reduction or they may introduce other risks such as mark to market valuation risk. Changes 
in market conditions may limit the Group’s ability to raise capital through the issue of new securities or sale of properties.

(b)  Interest rate risk
The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates arises primarily from its use of borrowings. The main 
consequence of adverse changes in market interest rates is higher interest costs, reducing the Group’s profit. In addition, one 
or more of the Group’s loan agreements may include minimum interest cover covenants. Higher interest costs resulting from 
increases in market interest rates may result in these covenants being breached, providing the lender the right to call in the 
loan or to increase the interest rate applied to the loan.

The Group manages the risk of changes in market interest rates by maintaining an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate 
borrowings. Fixed rate debt is achieved either through fixed rate debt funding or through derivative financial instruments 
permitted under the Investment, Derivatives, and Borrowing policy. At 30 June 2022, approximately 17% of the Group’s 
borrowings are at a fixed rate with interest rate caps in place to provide further rate protection, bringing the total hedging to 
28% of drawn debt (30 Jun 2021: 50%).

98

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited29.  Financial instruments (continued)
Exposure to changes in market interest rates also arises from financial assets such as cash deposits and loan receivables 
subject to floating interest rate terms. Changes in market interest rates will also change the fair value of any interest rate 
hedges.

(1)  For the purpose of the table above, lease payments for five years are excluded for perpetual leases.

The Group has entered into ground leases in relation to certain Lifestyle, Holidays and Mixed Use investment properties. 
The leases are long-term in nature and range between 7 years to perpetuity.

Perpetual leases are recognised as investment property and non-current liability at a value of $2.9 million based on a 
capitalisation rate applicable at the time of acquisition of applied to the current lease payment. As a perpetual lease, the 
lease liability will not amortise and no fair value adjustments in relation to the lease will be recognised unless circumstances 
of the lease change.

Other financial instruments of the Group not included in the above tables are non-interest bearing and are therefore not 
subject to interest rate risk.

(d)  Interest rate sensitivity analysis
The impact of an increase or decrease in average interest rates of 1% (100 bps) at reporting date, with all other variables held 
constant, is illustrated in the tables below. This analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at balance 
sheet date.

Increase in average interest rates of 100 bps:

Variable interest rate bank debt (AUD denominated)

Interest rate cap (AUD denominated)

Decrease in average interest rates of 100 bps:

(e)  Foreign exchange risk
The Group’s exposure to foreign exchange risk is limited to foreign denominated cash balances and receivables following the 
divestment of its final overseas operations in December 2014. These amounts are unhedged as cash will be used to cover 
final costs to wind up the companies and receivables relate to escrows.

(f)  Net foreign currency exposure
The Group’s net foreign currency monetary exposure as at reporting date is shown in the following table. The net foreign 
currency exposure reported is of foreign currencies held by entities whose functional currency is not the Australian dollar. 
It excludes assets and liabilities of entities, including equity accounted investments, whose functional currency is not the 
Australian dollar.

Net foreign currency exposure:

 New Zealand dollars

The impact of an increase or decrease in average foreign exchange rates of 10% at reporting date, with all other variables 
held constant, is considered to be limited based on the foreign exchange risk exposures in existence at balance sheet date.

The Group believes that the reporting date risk exposures are representative of the risk exposure inherent in its financial 
instruments.

(g)  Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty defaults on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the 
Group. 

The major credit risk for the Group is default by tenants, resulting in a loss of rental income while a replacement tenant is 
secured and further loss if the rent level agreed with the replacement tenant is below that previously paid by the defaulting 
tenant.

The Group assesses the credit risk of prospective tenants, the credit risk of in-place tenants when acquiring properties and 
the credit risk of existing tenants renewing upon expiry of their leases. Factors taken into account when assessing credit risk 
include the financial strength of the prospective tenant and any form of security, for example a rental bond, to be provided. 

The decision to accept the credit risk associated with leasing space to a particular tenant is balanced against the risk of the 
potential financial loss of not leasing up vacant space.

Rent receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis and arrears actively followed up in order to reduce, where 
possible, the extent of any losses should the tenant subsequently default. The Group believes that its receivables that are 
neither past due nor impaired do not give rise to any significant credit risk.

100

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited29.  Financial instruments (continued)
Credit risk also arises from deposits placed with financial institutions and derivatives contracts that may have a positive 
value to the Group. The Group’s Investment, Derivatives, and Borrowing policy sets target limits for credit risk exposure with 
financial institutions and minimum counterparty credit ratings. 

Counterparty exposure is measured as the aggregate of all obligations of any single legal entity or economic entity to the 
Group, after allowing for appropriate set offs which are legally enforceable.

The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date in relation to each class of financial instrument is its carrying 
value as reported in the balance sheet.

(h)  Liquidity risk
The main objective of liquidity risk management is to reduce the risk that the Group does not have the resources available to 
meet its financial obligations and working capital and committed capital expenditure requirements. The Group’s Investment, 
Derivatives, and Borrowing policy sets a target for the level of cash and available undrawn debt facilities to cover future 
committed capital expenditure in the next year, loan maturities within the next year and an allowance for unforeseen events 
such as tenant default. 

The Group may also be exposed to contingent liquidity risk under its term loan facilities, where term loan facilities include 
covenants which if breached give the lender the right to call in the loan, thereby accelerating a cash flow which otherwise 
was scheduled for the loan maturity. The Group monitors adherence to loan covenants on a regular basis, and the 
Investment, Derivatives, and Borrowing policy sets targets based on the ability to withstand adverse market movements and 
remain within loan covenant limits.

In addition, the Group ensures resilience against breaking its covenants on its primary debt facilities by assessing the 
following sensitivities:

 –

 –

10% reduction in value of assets for LVR covenants; and

2% nominal increase in interest rates combined with a 5% fall in income for ICR covenants.

The contractual maturities of the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities at reporting date are reflected in the following 
table. It shows the undiscounted contractual cash flows required to discharge the liabilities at market rates.

(i)  Other Financial Instrument Risk
The Group carries Residents’ loans at fair value with resulting fair value adjustments recognised in the statement of 
comprehensive income. The fair value of these loans is dependent on market prices for the related retirement village units. 
The impact of an increase or decrease in these market prices of 10% at reporting date, with all other variables held constant, 
is shown in the table below. This analysis is based on the residents’ loans in existence at reporting date.

These effects are largely offset by corresponding changes in the fair value of the Group’s investment properties. The effect 
on equity would be the same as the effect on profit.

(j)  Fair Value
The Group uses the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

Level 1:

Level 2:

Fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Fair value is calculated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the 
asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and

Level 3:

Fair value is calculated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Quoted market price represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices on active markets as at the reporting date 
without any deduction for transaction costs.

Valuation of unlisted property funds is linked to the underlying investment property value. Other financial liabilities relate to 
ongoing obligations for the Latitude One investment property and is linked to the underlying property value. The associated 
financial liability will move in line with the fair value of the property.

There has been no movement from Level 3 to Level 2 during the year.

The carrying value of the Group’s other financial instruments approximate their fair values.

Independent  Audit or's Repor t  t o t he Members of Ingenia Communit ies
Holdings Limit ed

Report  on t he Audit  of t he Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited (the “ Company” ) and its
subsidiaries (collectively the “ Group” ), which comprises the consolidated balance sheet  as at 30 June
2022, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity
and consolidated cash flow statement for the year then ended, notes to the financial statements,
including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.

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

a)

giving a t rue and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2022
and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

b)

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit  in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor
independence requirements of the Corporations Act  2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting
Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants
(including Independence Standards) (t he Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in
Australia. We have also fulfilled our other et hical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

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

Key Audit  Mat t ers

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

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

1. Valuat ion of Invest ment  Propert y

Why significant

How our audit  addressed t he key audit  mat t er

Approximately 91%of the Group’s total assets
comprise investment properties (both those recorded
as investment properties and those included within
equity accounted investments). These assets are
carried at fair value, which is assessed by the
directors with reference to either external
independent valuations or internal valuations and is
based on market  conditions existing at  reporting
date.

The Group has three categories of investment
properties as disclosed in Note 11 to the financial
report.

•

•

•

The Garden Villages portfolio consists of
investment properties earning revenue
predominantly from longer term rental
agreements and the key judgements include
capitalisation rates, market and cont ractual
rents and forecast occupancy levels.

The Lifestyle portfolio consists of investment
properties earning revenue from a mix of longer-
term land rental agreements and short-term
accommodation rental. In addition, the Group
earns revenue from the sale of manufactured
homes to residents of the properties.

The Tourism portfolio consists of ‘Holidays and
Mixed Use’ investment properties earning
revenue from short-term residential and tourism
rentals.

The valuation of investment properties is inherently
subjective given that there are alternative
assumptions and valuation methods that may result
in a range of values.

Our audit procedures included the following:

• We assessed the controls in place
relevant to the valuation process;

• We evaluated the suitability of the

valuation methodology used across the
portfolio and tested the valuation
reports for mathematical accuracy on a
sample basis;

• We assessed the qualifications,

competence and objectivity of the
independent valuation experts used by
the Group;

• We assessed the Group’s internal

valuation methodology and tested the
mathematical accuracy of the valuation
models. We also assessed the
qualifications, competence and
objectivity of the internal valuer;

• On a sample basis, we compared the

property related data used as input for
both the external and internal valuations
against actual and budgeted property
performance;

• On a sample basis, we considered the

key inputs and assumptions used in the
valuations by comparing this information
to external market data;

• Our real estate valuation specialists
reviewed a sample of internal and
independent valuations to determine
whether the key judgements and
methodology used were appropriate;
and

• We assessed the appropriateness of the

allocation of capital expenditure
between investment property and
inventory assets.

For the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued

Why significant

How our audit  addressed t he key audit  mat t er

• We assessed the appropriateness of

disclosures included in Note 11 of the
financial report.

The key judgements in the valuations include
assumptions related to the long term and short-term
rental income, capitalisation rates, discount rates,
market  and contractual rents, forecast  short-term
and residential occupancy levels, historical
transactions and remaining development potential for
vacant land. In assessing the development potential,
additional key judgements include future new homes
sales prices, estimated capital expenditure and
allocation of costs between investment property and
inventory, discount rates, projected property growth
rates and operating profit margins.

Accordingly, the valuation of investment properties
was considered a key audit matter.

Informat ion Ot her t han t he Financial Report  and Audit or’s Report  Thereon

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Group’s 2022 Annual Report other than the financial report and our auditor’s report
thereon. We obtained the Directors’ Report that is to be included in the Annual Report, prior to the date
of this auditor’s report, and we expect to obtain the remaining sections of the Annual Report after the
date of this auditor’s report.

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

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

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

Responsibilit ies of t he Direct ors for t he Financial Report

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

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

Audit or's Responsibilit ies for t he Audit  of t he Financial Report

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

Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedIndependent Auditor’s Report

For the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued

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

·

·

·

·

·

·

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedDirectors’ Report

For the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued 

Strategy
The Group’s focus is on maintaining sector leadership 
whilst delivering growth opportunities across the business 
through enhancing operational performance and 
developing new communities. 

Using a disciplined investment framework, the Group 
will: continue to grow its lifestyle, holiday and mixed use 
communities business; build out its existing development 
pipeline; expand development and revenue streams 
through capital partnerships (Joint Venture with Sun 
Communities, Inc (NYSE: SUI)) and funds management 
platform.

The immediate business priorities of the Group are:

 –

Improve resident and guest experience and satisfaction;

 – Enhance sustainable competitive advantage through 
recruiting, retaining and developing industry leading 
talent;

 –

Improve performance of existing communities through 
rental growth, active cost management and investment 
in new rental and tourism cabins;

 – Continue to progress development pipeline across the 
Group and JV projects to deliver new rental contracts;

 – Build on the Group’s sustainability program, enhancing 

disclosures as initiatives are progressed; 

 – Maintain focus on employee, resident and guest health 

and safety; and

 – Expand the funds management platform and deliver 

compelling performance for investors.

Transformational growth 
During the period the Group undertook over $560.0 million 
of strategic transformational acquisitions, growing Ingenia’s 
market leading position in the lifestyle and holidays 
sectors and enhancing the Group’s growth profile. During 
the period, the Group acquired 12 Lifestyle communities, 
11 Holiday communities, an additional Ingenia Gardens 
Village and 4 greenfield developments.

The growth in the portfolio was materially driven by the 
acquisition of the Seachange group, Caravan Parks of 
Australia and the Federation Villages portfolios.

The Seachange group is a high-quality portfolio of six 
lifestyle communities and development sites in South East 
QLD and was acquired for $270.0 million. The Seachange 
acquisition extends Ingenia’s presence in the strong South 
East QLD market via a complementary, well established 
premium brand with an established operating and 
development platform, providing Ingenia with additional 
management capabilities to contribute to the growth of the 
Group. 

The Caravan Parks of Australia portfolio, a portfolio 
of seven lifestyle and holiday communities in VIC and 
NSW, was acquired for $110.0 million. The Federation 
Villages portfolio consisted of three established lifestyle 
communities in Melbourne’s outer suburbs which added 
504 homes and was acquired for $87.0 million. 

In addition to these portfolios the Group acquired seven 
holiday communities, a partially complete lifestyle 
community in QLD, an established seniors rental 
community and four additional development opportunities 

(two in the Joint Venture with Sun Communities), bringing 
the total potential development sites across the business 
to 6,580. 

FY22 financial results
The year to 30 June 2022 delivered total revenue of 
$338.1 million, up 14% on the prior year. The Group settled 
4091 turnkey homes (30 Jun 2021: 3801 homes) and grew 
Lifestyle and Holidays rental income from permanent, 
annual and tourism clients to $140.8 million (30 Jun 2021: 
$99.3 million).

Statutory profit of $100.6 million was up 38% on the prior 
year. The statutory result reflects the combination of 
growth in underlying earnings and fair value movements on 
investment property arising from: improved capitalisation 
rates, offset by transaction costs on new acquisitions and; 
a reduction of fair value associated with the realisation of 
development profits on the settlement of new homes.

Underlying profit from continuing operations was 
$87.9 million, which represents an increase of $10.6 million 
(14%) on the prior year. The underlying result was adversely 
impacted by industry wide supply and labour challenges 
which significantly impacted the EBIT contribution from 
Lifestyle Development (down 24% on prior year). The 
Holidays segment EBIT was up 23% on the prior year from 
increased demand and new acquisitions despite forced 
COVID-19 associated closures. Ingenia Lifestyle Rental 
EBIT of $26.8 million, was up 62% with Ingenia Gardens 
EBIT of $11.5 million, up 6% from the prior year both 
segments benefited from acquisitions and inflation linked 
rent increases. 

Operating cash flow for the period was $114.9 million, down 
17% from the prior year, reflecting lower available opening 
inventory than prior year and lower development profit.

The Group’s underlying earnings per security decreased 
by 1% from prior year driven by additional securities on 
issue from the November 2021 equity raise and adverse 
COVID-19 and supply chain impacts on the Holidays and 
Lifestyle Development

The Group’s net asset value (NAV), of $3.75 per security, 
was up 24% compared with 30 June 2021 NAV of $3.03, 
driven by positive revaluations of the Group’s assets and the 
impact of the November 2021 equity raise, where securities 
were issued at a premium to asset value. Net tangible assets 
(NTA) increased from $3.00 to $3.50 per security.

Key metrics
 – Net profit for the year for ICF $4.9 million (30 Jun 2021: 

$27.6 million)

 – Net profit for the year for ICMT of $68.0 million (30 Jun 

2021: $9.1 million)

 – Full year distributions of 11.0 cents per unit by ICF, nil 

from ICMT.

Strategic priorities
The strategic priorities for the Joint Venture are to expand in key markets and to progress the existing portfolio of new 
lifestyle communities under development. The Joint Venture leverages the expertise and local market knowledge of Ingenia 
to identify, acquire and develop sites. Once homes are sold, Ingenia will also provide operational services to the lifestyle 
communities. Ingenia generates origination, development and management fees for these services plus a performance fee 
for above hurdle rate returns.

Funds Management
The Group’s funds and asset management business manages five funds that invest in lifestyle and holiday communities 
situated in NSW and QLD. The Group receives fees for the management and development of the assets and management 
of the funds. During the year, Ingenia acquired the Federation Village assets owned within one of the funds from investors. 
As part of this transaction, a performance fee and gain on the Group’s co-investment in the fund were realised.

The Group co-invests into each of the five funds, to ensure alignment with fund investors. The investment in the funds 
generates asset ownership and development revenue streams.

Strategic priorities
The strategic priority of the funds management business is to leverage the Group’s platform to provide additional growth by 
increasing assets under management and delivering performance to fund investors.

Capital management
During the year Ingenia raised $475.0 million of equity via an accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer to existing 
eligible securityholders at $6.12 per security. The Group also increased its debt facilities by $255.0 million, taking the Group’s 
combined facility limit to $780.0 million (30 June 2021: $525.0 million). The weighted average term to maturity of the Group 
facilities is 4.4 years.

At 30 June 2022, the debt facilities were drawn to $440.0 million and the Group’s Loan to Value Ratio (“LVR”) was 
25.7%, gearing was 20.6% and the Group was 28.4% hedged at 30 June 2022. Hedging increased post 30 June 2022 to a 
pro-forma 51% with additional hedging placed in July 2022 and August 2022.

122

Directors’ ReportFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continued Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedFY23 outlook
The Group is well placed to continue to deliver growth in the core Lifestyle business, with strong demand from downsizers, 
increased market awareness, and a strong pipeline of projects commencing development that will generate additional rental 
cash flows. Growth in rental cash flows will also be delivered through ongoing demand for affordable housing and ongoing 
high occupancy and rent growth across the Group’s rental communities. Enhancing the performance of existing assets by 
delivering rent growth and investing in new homes remains a key priority for the Group.

Ingenia expects to continue to benefit from growth in domestic tourism with an extensive portfolio located in attractive 
holiday destinations. The priority for Ingenia Holidays is to enhance the customer experience and invest in new tourism 
cabins and refurbishment of existing cabins.

The Group will focus on increasing its assets under management through its capital partnerships including development in 
the Joint Venture through the commencement of developments in 1H23.

The Group’s strong balance sheet and deal flow provides continuing capacity for growth and sector leadership.

Ingenia will continue to deliver on its environmental commitments as the Group targets a 30% reduction in scope 1 and 2 
emissions over the next five years (against a base line portfolio owned since 2019) and a carbon neutral operation by 2035.

The Group will continue to regularly assess market opportunities and the performance of existing assets, divesting and 
acquiring assets where superior longer-term returns are available.

Annual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings LimitedNotes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 30 June 2022

1.  Summary of significant accounting policies

(a)  The Trusts
Ingenia Communities Fund (“ICF” or the “Fund”) 
(ARSN 107 459 576) and Ingenia Communities 
Management Trust (“ICMT”) (ARSN 122 928 410) 
(together the Trusts) are Australian registered schemes. 
Ingenia Communities RE Limited (ACN 154 464 990; 
Australian Financial Services Licence number 415862), 
the Responsible Entity of the Trusts, is incorporated and 
domiciled in Australia.

The parent company of Ingenia Communities RE Limited 
is Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited (the Company). 
The shares of the Company are stapled with the units of 
the Trusts and trade on the Australian Securities Exchange 
(“ASX”) effectively as one security. In this report, the 
Company and the Trusts are referred to collectively as the 
Group.

The stapling structure will cease to operate on the first to 
occur of:

 –

 –

the Company or either of the Trusts resolving by 
special resolution in accordance with its constitution to 
terminate the stapling provisions; or

the commencement of the winding up of the Company 
or either of the Trusts.

The financial report as at and for the year ended 30 June 
2022 was authorised for issue by the Directors on 
24 August 2022.

(b)  Basis of preparation 
The financial report is a general purpose financial report 
which has been prepared in accordance with Australian 
Accounting Standards, Australian Interpretations, 
other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian 
Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the 
Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting 
Standards as issued by the AASB and International 
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the 
International Accounting Standards Board.

As permitted by Instrument 2015/838, issued by the 
Australian Securities and Investments Commission, this 
financial report is a combined financial report that presents 
the financial statements and accompanying notes of both 
ICF and ICMT. The financial statements and accompanying 
notes of the Trusts have been presented within this 
financial report.

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars 
and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand 
dollars ($’000), unless otherwise stated as permitted by 
Instrument 2016/191.

The financial report is prepared on a historical cost 
basis, except for investment properties, residents’ loans, 
derivative financial instruments, other financial assets and 
other financial liabilities, which are measured at fair value.

Where appropriate, comparative amounts have been 
restated to ensure consistency of disclosure throughout 
the financial report. 

At 30 June 2022, the ICF recorded a net current asset 
deficiency of $5,735,000. ICF has access to $310,200,000 
of available undrawn bank facilities. Accordingly, there 
are reasonable grounds to believe that ICF will be able to 
pay its debts as and when they become due and payable; 
and the financial report of the ICF has been prepared on a 
going concern basis.

At 30 June 2022, ICMT recorded a net current asset 
deficiency of $85,486,000. This deficiency is due to an 
increase in advanced deposits and payables compared to 
prior year. ICMT current liabilities and commitments will be 
funded through forecast operating cashflows and available 
undrawn debt facilities of the Group. Accordingly, there are 
reasonable grounds to believe that ICMT will be able to pay 
its debts as and when they become due and payable; and 
the financial report of the ICMT has been prepared on a 
going concern basis.

(c) 

 Adoption of new and revised accounting 
standards

New accounting standards, amendments to accounting 
standards, and interpretations have been published that 
are not mandatory for the current reporting period and 
are not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s 
future financial reporting.

(d)  Principles of consolidation
ICF’s consolidated financial statements comprise ICF and 
its subsidiaries. ICMT’s consolidated financial statements 
comprise ICMT and its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are all 
those entities (including special purpose entities) whose 
financial and operating policies are able to be governed by 
a trust, so as to obtain benefits from their activities.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared 
for the same reporting period as the parent, using 
consistent accounting policies. Intercompany balances and 
transactions, including dividends and unrealised gains and 
losses from intragroup transactions, have been eliminated.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the 
parent obtains control. They are deconsolidated from the 
date that control ceases. 

Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost in the 
parent’s financial statements.

The Company was incorporated on 24 November 2011. In 
accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 3 Business 
Combinations, the stapling of the Company and the Trusts 
was regarded as a business combination. Under AASB 3, 
the stapling was accounted for as a reverse acquisition 
with ICF “acquiring” the Company and the Company 
subsequently being identified as the ongoing parent for 
preparing consolidated financial reports. Consequently, the 
consolidated financial statements are a continuation of the 
financial statements of the Trusts, and include the results of 
the Company from the date of incorporation.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

(e)  Business combinations and goodwill
Business combinations are accounted for using the 
acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured 
as the fair value aggregate of the consideration transferred 
at acquisition. For each business combination, the Trusts 
elect whether to measure the non-controlling interest in 
the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate 
share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition 
related costs are expensed and included in other expenses.

When the Trusts acquire a business, they assess financial 
assets and liabilities for appropriate classification and 
designation in accordance with the contractual terms, 
economic circumstances, and pertinent conditions as at 
the acquisition date.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the 
acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree 
is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through 
profit or loss.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of 
the aggregate consideration transferred and the amount 
recognised for non-controlling interest over the fair value 
of net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. 

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more 
frequently if changes in circumstances indicate that 
it might impaired. An impairment loss is recognised 
when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its 
recoverable amount, calculated as the higher of fair value 
less costs of disposal and the value in use. Impairment 
losses are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of 
Comprehensive Income.

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are 
grouped at the lowest levels for which goodwill is 
monitored for management purposes and allocated to 
cash generating units (“CGU”). The assumptions used for 
determining the recoverable amount of the CGU are based 
on the expectation for the future, utilising both internal and 
external sources of data and relevant market trends.

(f)  Assets held for sale
Components of the entity are classified as held for sale if 
their carrying value will be recovered principally through a 
sale transaction rather than through continuing use. 

They are measured at the lower of their carrying value 
and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as 
investment property, which are carried at fair value.

The liabilities of an asset classified as held for sale are 
presented separately from other liabilities on the face of 
the balance sheet. 

(g)  Dividends and distributions
A liability for any distribution declared on or before the end 
of the reporting period is recognised on the balance sheet, 
in the reporting period to which the distribution pertains.

(h)  Foreign currency 

Functional and presentation currencies
The functional currency and presentation currency of 
the Trusts and their subsidiaries, other than foreign 
subsidiaries, is the Australian dollar. 

Translation foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currency are initially recorded in 
the functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing at 
the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities 
denominated in foreign currency are retranslated at 
the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance date. All 
differences in the consolidated financial report are taken to 
the statement of comprehensive income.

A non-monetary item that is measured at fair value in a 
foreign currency is translated using the exchange rates at 
the date when the fair value was determined.

(i)  Leases
The Trusts assesses at contract inception whether a 
contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract 
conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset 
for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The Trusts applies a single recognition and measurement 
approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and 
leases of low-value assets which are recognised as an 
expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The 
Trusts recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments 
and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the 
underlying assets.

Right-of-use assets
The Trusts recognises right-of-use assets at the 
commencement date of the lease. Right-of-use assets are 
measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and 
impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of 
lease liabilities. 

The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of 
lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and 
lease payments made at or before the commencement 
date less any lease incentives received. 

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis 
over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful 
lives of the assets.

Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Trusts 
recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of 
lease payments to be made over the lease term. 

The lease payments include fixed payments less any lease 
incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend 
on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid 
under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also 
include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably 
certain to be exercised by the Trusts and payments of 
penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects 
the Trusts exercising the option to terminate. 

132

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited1. 

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index 
or a rate are recognised as expenses in the period in which 
the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the 
Trusts uses the interest rate implicit in the lease. After the 
commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is 
increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for 
the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount 
of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a 
change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments 
(e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change 
in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) 
or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the 
underlying asset. The Trusts’ lease liabilities are included in 
Borrowings (Note 18). Leases for investment property which 
apply the fair value model are classified as investment 
property per AASB 140 Investment Properties.

(j)  Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated 
depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. 
Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the plant 
and equipment, and borrowing costs for long-term 
construction projects if the recognition criteria are met. 
When significant parts of property, plant and equipment 
require replacing at intervals, the Trusts recognises 
such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives 
and depreciates them accordingly. Likewise, when a 
major inspection is performed, the cost is recognised 
in the carrying value of the plant and equipment as a 
replacement, if the recognition criteria are satisfied. 
All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised 
in profit or loss as incurred. The present value of the 
expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after 
its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the 
recognition criteria for a provision are met.

(k)  Financial assets and liabilities
Current and non-current financial assets and liabilities 
within the scope of AASB 9 Financial Instruments are 
classified as; fair value through profit or loss; fair value 
through other comprehensive income; or amortised 
cost. The Trusts determine the classification of its 
financial assets and liabilities at initial recognition with 
the classification depending on the purpose for which 
the asset or liability was acquired or issued. Financial 
assets and liabilities are initially recognised at fair value 
plus directly attributable transaction costs, unless their 
classification is at fair value through profit or loss. They 
are subsequently measured at fair value or amortised cost 
using the effective interest method.

The fair value of financial instruments actively traded in 
organised financial markets are determined by reference to 
quoted market bid prices at close of business on balance 
sheet date. For those with no active market, fair values are 
determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques 
include: using recent arm’s length market transactions; 
reference to the current market value of another 
substantially similar instruments; discounted cash flow 
analysis; option pricing models; making use of available 
and supportable market data and keeping judgemental 
inputs to a minimum.

Impairment of non-financial assets

(l) 
Assets other than investment property and financial assets 
carried at fair value are tested for impairment whenever 
events or circumstance changes indicate that the carrying 
value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is 
recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying 
value exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable 
amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs 
to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing 
impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for 
which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that 
are largely independent of the cash inflows from other 
assets or groups of assets. Non-financial assets excluding 
goodwill which have suffered impairment are reviewed for 
possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

(m)  Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet and cash 
flow statements comprise cash at bank, cash in hand, and 
short-term deposits that are readily convertible to known 
amounts of cash, and subject to an insignificant risk of 
changes in value.

(n)  Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at 
original invoice amount, and subsequently adjusted for 
ECL. An allowance is recognised by analysing the age 
of outstanding balances and applying historical default 
percentages. Historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect 
current and forward-looking observable data affecting the 
ability of customers to settle their debts.

Inventories

(o) 
The Trusts hold inventory in relation to the acquisition and 
development of lifestyle homes, as well as and service 
station fuel and supplies. 

Inventories are held at the lower of cost and net realisable 
value. 

Costs of inventories comprise all acquisition costs, costs 
of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the 
inventories to their present location and condition. 
Inventory includes work in progress and raw materials used 
in the production of lifestyle home units.

Net realisable value is determined on the basis of an 
estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, 
less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs 
necessary to make the sale.

(p)  Derivative and financial instruments
The Trusts use derivative financial instruments such 
as interest rate swaps to hedge its risks associated 
with interest rate fluctuations. Such derivative financial 
instruments are initially recognised at fair value on 
the date the contract is entered and are subsequently 
remeasured to fair value and included in the statement of 
comprehensive income in the period they arise, including 
the corresponding tax effect.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

The Trusts policy applied to capitalised development costs 
is as follows:

(q)  Investment property
Land and buildings have the function of an investment 
and are regarded as composite assets. In accordance with 
applicable accounting standards, the buildings, including 
plant and equipment, are not depreciated.

Investment property includes property under construction, 
tourism cabins and associated amenities.

Investment properties are measured initially at cost, 
including transaction costs. Subsequently, investment 
properties are stated at fair value, reflecting market 
conditions at reporting date. Gains or losses arising from 
changes in the fair values of investment properties are 
included in the statement of comprehensive income in the 
period they arise, including the corresponding tax effect. 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an 
asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction 
between market participants at measurement date, in 
the principal market for the asset or liability, or the most 
advantageous market in its absence. In determining the fair 
value of assets held for sale recent market offers have been 
taken into consideration.

It is the Trusts’ policy to have all investment properties 
externally valued at intervals of not more than two years. 
It is the policy of the Trusts to review the fair value of 
each investment property every six months, and revalued 
investment properties to fair value when their carrying value 
materially differs to their fair values. 

In determining fair values, the Trusts considers relevant 
information including the capitalisation of rental streams 
using market assessed capitalisation rates, expected net 
cash flows discounted to their present value using market 
determined risk-adjusted discount rates, and other available 
market data such as recent comparable transactions. The 
assessment of fair value of investment properties does not 
take into account potential capital gains tax assessable.

Intangible assets

(r) 
An intangible asset arising from software development 
expenditure is recognised only when the Trusts can 
demonstrate: the technical feasibility of completing the 
intangible asset so that it will be available for use; how 
the asset will generate future economic benefits; the 
availability of resources to complete the asset; and the 
ability to measure reliably the expenditure during its 
development. Costs capitalised include external direct 
costs of materials and service, direct payroll, and payroll 
related costs of employee time spent on projects.

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

Software and associated development to capitalised 
development costs (assets in use)

 – Useful life: Finite amortisation method using seven years 

on a straight-line basis; and

 –

Impairment test: Amortisation method reviewed at 
each financial year end; closing carrying value reviewed 
annually for indicators of impairment.

Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is capitalised 
only when it increases the future economic benefits 
embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other 
expenditure is expensed as incurred. Gains or losses arising 
from the derecognition of an intangible asset are measured 
as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, and 
the carrying value of the asset. They are recognised in 
profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on 
initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets 
acquired in a business combination are their fair values 
as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, 
acquired intangible assets are carried at cost less any 
accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

(s)  Trade and other payables 
Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost, 
and due to their short-term nature, are not discounted. 
They represent liabilities for goods and services provided 
to the Trusts prior to the end of the financial year which 
are unpaid. They are recognised when the Trusts become 
obliged to make future payments in respect of the 
purchase of the goods and services.

(t)  Provisions, including for employee benefits

General
Provisions are recognised when: the Trusts have a present 
obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event; 
it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying 
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; 
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount. 
When the Trusts expect some or all of a provision to be 
reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, the 
reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only 
when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense 
relating to a provision is presented in the statement of 
comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.

Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary 
benefits, and annual leave expected to be settled wholly 
within twelve months of the reporting date, are recognised 
in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting 
date. They are measured at the amounts expected to 
be paid when the liabilities are settled. Expenses for 
non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave 
is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

Long service leave
The liability for long service leave is recognised and 
measured as the present value of expected future 
payments made in respect of services provided by 
employees, up to the reporting date, using the projected 
unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected 
future wage and salary levels, experience of employees 
departing, and period of service. Expected future 
payments are discounted using market yields on high 
quality corporate bonds at the reporting date, with terms 
to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as 
possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

(u)  Resident loans
The loans are repayable on the departure of the resident 
and classified as financial liabilities at fair value through 
profit and loss with resulting fair value adjustments 
recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 
The fair value of the obligation is measured as the 
ingoing contribution plus the resident’s share of capital 
appreciation to reporting date. Although the expected 
average residency term is more than ten years, these 
obligations are classified as current liabilities, as required 
by Accounting Standards. This is because the Trusts does 
not have an unconditional right to defer settlement to more 
than twelve months after reporting date.

This liability is stated net of accrued deferred management 
fees at reporting date, as the Group’s contracts with 
residents require net settlement of those obligations.

Refer to Notes 1(bb) information regarding the valuation of 
resident loans.

(v)  Borrowings 
Borrowings are initially recorded at the fair value of 
the consideration received, less directly attributable 
transaction costs associated with the borrowings. After 
initial recognition, borrowings are subsequently measured 
at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. 
Under this method, fees, costs, discounts and premiums 
that are yield related are included as part of the carrying 
value of the borrowing, and amortised over its expected 
life.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities, unless 
the Trusts do not have an unconditional right to defer 
settlement to more than twelve months after reporting 
date.

Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred, except 
where they are directly attributable to the acquisition, 
construction or production of a qualifying asset. When this 
is the case, they are capitalised as part of the acquisition 
cost of that asset.

(w)  Issued equity
Issued and paid up securities are recognised at the fair 
value of the consideration received by the Trusts. Any 
transaction costs arising on issue of ordinary securities 
are recognised directly in security holders’ interest as a 
reduction of the security proceeds received.

(x)  Revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised 
when performance obligations have been met and control 
of the goods or services are transferred to the customer 
at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the 
Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods 
or services. The following specific recognition criteria must 
also be met before revenue is recognised:

Rental income
Rental income from investment properties is recognised 
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Fixed rental 
increases that do not represent direct compensation for 
underlying cost increases or capital expenditures are 
recognised on a straight-line basis until the next market 
review date. Rent paid in advance is recognised as 
unearned income.

Sale of homes
Revenue from the sale of lifestyle homes is recognised 
at the point in time when control of the lifestyle home is 
transferred to the customer, on settlement of the home.

Management and other fee income
Revenue from rendering of services is recognised in 
accordance with performance obligations under the terms 
and conditions of the service agreements. The Group 
recognises management and other fee income over 
time because the customer simultaneously receives and 
consumes the benefits provided to them. 

Distribution income
Distribution income is recognised when the Trusts right to 
receive the payment is established. 

Interest income
Interest income is recognised as the interest accrues, using 
the effective interest rate method.

Service station sales
Service station sales, food and beverage revenue 
represents the revenue earned from the provision of 
products and services to external parties. Sales revenue 
is only recognised at the point in time when control of the 
assets is transferred to the customer.

(y)  Income tax

Current income tax
Under the current tax legislation, ICF and its subsidiaries 
are not liable to pay Australian income tax provided that 
their taxable income (including any assessable capital 
gains) is fully distributed to security holders each year. 
Tax allowances for building and fixtures depreciation 
are distributed to security holders in the form of the 
tax-deferred component of distributions. ICMT and its 
subsidiaries are subject to Australian income tax.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the 
amount expected to be recovered from, or paid to, 
the taxation authorities based on the current period’s 
taxable income. The tax rates and laws used to compute 
the amount are those that are enacted or substantively 
enacted, at the reporting date. The subsidiaries that 
previously held the Trusts’ foreign properties may be 
subject to corporate income tax and withholding tax in the 
countries in which they operate. Under current Australian 
income tax legislation, security holders may be entitled to 
receive a foreign tax credit for this withholding tax.

ICF has entered the Attribution Managed Investment Trust 
(AMIT) regime.

Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax represents tax (including withholding 
tax) expected to be payable or recoverable by taxable 
entities on differences between tax bases of assets and 
liabilities, and their carrying value for financial reporting 
purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured 
at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year 
when the asset is realised through continuing use, or 
the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) 
that have been enacted or substantively enacted at 
reporting date. Deferred tax assets are recognised for 
deductible temporary differences only if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those 
temporary differences. Income taxes related to items 
recognised directly in equity are not recognised against 
income. Critical accounting estimates and judgements 
are continually evaluated and are based on historical 
experience and other factors, including expectations of 
future events that may have a financial impact on the 
Trust and that are believed to be reasonable under the 
circumstances.

Tax consolidation
The Company, ICMT, and their respective subsidiaries 
have formed a tax consolidation group with the Company 
or ICMT being the head entity. The head and controlled 
entities in the tax consolidation group continue to account 
for their own current and deferred tax amounts. Each 
tax consolidated group has applied a group allocation 
approach in determining the appropriate amount of 
current taxes and deferred taxes to allocate to the 
members therein.

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, 
the head entity of each tax consolidated group also 
recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and 
the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses, 
and unused tax credits assumed from entities in their 
respective tax consolidated group.

Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements 
with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as 
amounts receivable from, or payable to, other entities in 
the Group. 

(z)  Goods and services tax (“GST”)
Revenue, expenses and assets (with the exception of 
receivables) are recognised net of the amount of GST, to 
the extent that the GST is recoverable from the taxation 
authority. Where GST is not recoverable, it is recognised as 
part of the cost of the acquisition, or as an expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST. The 
net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to the tax 
authority, is included in the balance sheet as an asset or 
liability.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement 
on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows 
arising from investing and financing activities, which are 
recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authorities, are 
classified as operating cash flows.

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

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

The Trusts’ investment in its joint venture with Sun 
Communities is accounted for using the equity method.

Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture 
is initially recognised at cost. The carrying value of the 
investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Trusts’ 
share of net assets of the joint venture since the acquisition 
date. Goodwill relating to the joint venture is included in 
the carrying value of the investment and is not tested for 
impairment separately.

The statement of profit or loss reflects the Trusts’ share of 
the results of operations of the joint venture. Any change 
in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) of those investees 
is presented as part of the Trusts’ OCI. In addition, when 
there has been a change recognised directly in the equity 
of the joint venture, the Group recognises its share of any 
changes, when applicable, in the statement of changes 
in equity. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from 
transactions between the Group and the joint venture are 
eliminated to the extent of the interest in the joint venture.

The aggregate of the Trusts’ share of profit or loss of a joint 
venture is shown on the face of the statement of profit or 
loss outside operating profit and represents profit or loss 
after tax and non-controlling interests in the subsidiaries of 
the joint venture.

The financial statements of the joint venture are prepared 
for the same reporting period as the Trusts. When 
necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting 
policies in line with those of the Trusts.

136

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited1. 

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)

After application of the equity method, the Trusts 
determine whether it is necessary to recognise an 
impairment loss on its investment in its joint venture. At 
each reporting date, the Trusts determines whether there is 
objective evidence that the investment in the joint venture 
is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group calculates 
the amount of impairment as the difference between the 
recoverable amount of the joint venture and its carrying 
value, and then recognises the loss within the statement of 
comprehensive income.

Upon loss of joint control, the Trusts measure and 
recognise any retained investment at its fair value. Any 
difference between the carrying value of the joint venture 
upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the 
fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from 
disposal is recognised in profit or loss.

(bb) Fair value measurement
The Trusts measure financial instruments, such as 
derivatives, investment properties, resident loans, certain 
non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, at fair 
value at each balance sheet date. Refer to Note 26. 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an 
asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction 
between market participants at measurement date. The 
fair value measurement is based on the presumption that 
the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes 
place either: 

 –

 –

In the principal market for the asset or liability; or 

In the absence of a principal market, in the most 
advantageous market for the asset or liability. 

The principal or the most advantageous market must be 
accessible to the Trusts. 

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using 
the assumptions market participants use when pricing the 
asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in 
their economic best interest. A fair value measurement 
of a non-financial asset takes into account a market 
participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using 
the asset in its best use or by selling it to another market 
participant that would use the asset in its best use. 

The Trusts use valuation techniques that are appropriate 
in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are 
available to measure fair value, maximising the use of 
relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of 
unobservable inputs. 

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured 
or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised 
within the fair value hierarchy, described below, based on 
the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value 
measurement as a whole:

 –

 –

Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active 
markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level 
input that is significant to the fair value measurement is 
directly or indirectly observable.

 –

Level 3 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level 
input that is significant to the fair value measurement is 
unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial 
statements on a recurring basis, the Trusts determine 
whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the 
hierarchy by reassessing categorisation at the end of the 
reporting period. This is based on the lowest level input 
that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole.

The Trusts’ Audit and Risk Committee determines the 
policies and procedures for both recurring fair value 
measurement, such as investment properties and resident 
loans, and for non-recurring measurement. 

External valuers are involved for valuation of significant 
assets, such as properties and significant liabilities. 
Selection criteria include market knowledge, experience 
and qualifications; reputation; independence; and whether 
professional standards are maintained. 

On a six month basis management presents valuation 
results to the Audit and Risk Committee as well as the 
Trusts’ auditors. This includes a review of the major 
assumptions used in the valuations. 

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Trusts have 
determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of 
the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability 
and the level of the fair value hierarchy (see Note 26).

(cc) Earnings per share (“EPS”)
Basic EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to 
members of the Trusts’, divided by the weighted average 
number of ordinary securities, adjusted for any bonus 
element. 

Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to 
the Trusts, divided by the weighted average number 
of ordinary securities and dilutive potential ordinary 
securities, adjusted for any bonus element.

(dd) Pending accounting standards
In the current period, the Trusts have adopted all the 
new and revised accounting standards, amendments to 
accounting standards, and interpretations that are relevant 
to its operations and effective for the current annual 
reporting period.

(ee) Current versus non-current classification
The Trusts present assets and liabilities in the balance sheet 
based on current/non-current classification. An asset is 
current when it is:

 – Expected to be realised, or intended to be sold, or 

consumed in the normal operating cycle;

 – Held primarily for the purpose of trading;

 – Expected to be realised within twelve months after the 

reporting period; or

 – Cash or cash equivalents, unless restricted from being 

exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve 
months after reporting period.

 Summary of significant accounting policies 
(continued)
A liability is current when:

 –

 –

 –

It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;

It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

It is due to be settled within twelve months after the 
reporting period; or

 – There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of 
the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting 
period.

All other assets are classified as non-current. The Trusts 
classify all other liabilities as non-current. Deferred tax 
assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets 
and liabilities.

(ff)  Government grants
Government grants are recognised where there is 
reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and 
all attached conditions will be complied with. When the 
grant relates to an expense, it is recognised net of the 
related expense for which it is intended to compensate. 
There are no unfilled conditions or other contingencies 
attached to the grants.

2. 
 Accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements requires the use 
of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the 
Trusts to exercise judgement in the process of applying its 
accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree 
of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions 
and estimates are significant to the financial statements are 
disclosed below.

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and 
are based on historical experience and other factors, 
including expectations of future events that are believed to 
be reasonable under the circumstances.

(a)  Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The Trusts makes estimates and assumptions concerning 
the future. The resulting accounting estimates, by 
definition, may not equal the related actual results. The 
estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk 
of causing a material adjustment to the carrying value 
of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are 
discussed below.

i. 

 Valuation of investment property, other financial 
assets and other financial liabilities

The Trusts have investment properties and assets held 
for sale which together represent the estimated fair value 
of investment property. Other financial assets represent 
ICMT’s investment in a number of unlisted property 
funds. Other financial liabilities relates to a profit share 
arrangement between ICMT and a third-party which is 
carried at fair value.

These carrying value reflect certain assumptions about 
expected future rentals, rent-free periods, operating 
costs and appropriate discount and capitalisation rates. 
The valuation assumption for properties to be developed 
reflect sales prices for new homes, sales rates, new rental 
tariffs, estimates of capital expenditure, discount rates 
and projected property growth rates. The valuation 
assumptions for deferred management fee villages reflect 
average length of stay, unit market values, estimates of 
capital expenditure, contract terms with residents, discount 
rates and projected property growth rates. 

In forming these assumptions, the Trusts considered 
information about current and recent sales activity, current 
market rents, discount rates and capitalisation rates for 
properties similar to those owned by the Trusts, as well as 
independent valuations of the Trusts’ property.

ii.  Valuation of inventories
The Trusts have inventory in the form of lifestyle homes 
and service station fuel and supplies, which it carries 
at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Estimates 
of net realisable value are based on the most reliable 
evidence available at the time of estimation, the amount 
the inventories are expected to realise, and the estimated 
costs of completion. Key assumptions require the use of 
management judgement, and are continually reviewed.

iii.  Fair value of derivatives
The fair value of derivative assets and liabilities is based 
on assumptions of future events, and involves significant 
estimates. Given the complex nature of these instruments, 
and various assumptions that are used in calculating 
mark-to-market values, the Trusts rely on counterparty 
valuations for derivative values. The counterparty 
valuations are usually based on mid-market rates, and 
calculates using the main variables of the forward market 
curve, time and volatility.

(b)   Critical judgements in applying the entity’s 

accounting policies

There were no judgements, apart from those involving 
estimations, that management has made in the process 
of applying the entity’s accounting policies that had 
a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the 
financial report.

(c)  Tax consolidation
Effective from 1 July 2012, ICMT and its Australian domiciled owned subsidiaries formed a tax consolidation group with ICMT 
being the head entity. Under the tax funding agreement the funding of tax within the tax group is based on taxable income 
as if that entity was not a member of the tax group.

Upon entering into the ICMT tax consolidated group, the tax cost bases for certain assets were reset, resulting in income tax 
benefits being recorded.

(c)  Description of valuation techniques used and key inputs to valuation of investment properties

Capitalisation method
Under the capitalisation method, fair value is estimated using assumptions regarding the expectation of future benefits. The 
capitalisation method involves estimating the expected income projections of the property and applying a capitalisation rate 
into perpetuity. The capitalisation rate is based on current market evidence. Future income projections take into account 
occupancy, rental income and operating expenses. 

Discounted cash flow method
Under the discounted cash flow method, fair value is estimated using assumptions regarding the benefits and liabilities of 
ownership over the asset’s life including an exit or terminal value. This method involves the projection of a series of cash 
flows on a real property interest. To this projected cash flow series, a market-derived discount rate is applied to establish the 
present value of the income stream associated with the asset. The exit yield normally reflects the exit value expected to be 
achieved upon selling the asset and is a function of the risk-adjusted returns of the asset and expected capitalisation rate.

The duration of the cash flows and the specific timing of inflows and outflows are determined by events such as rent 
reviews, lease renewal and related re-letting, redevelopment or refurbishment as well as the development of new units. The 
appropriate duration is typically driven by market behaviour that is a characteristic of the class of real property. Periodic 
cash flow is typically estimated as gross income less vacancy, non-recoverable expenses, collection losses, lease incentives, 
maintenance cost, agent and commission costs and other operating and management expenses. The series of periodic net 
underlying cash flows, along with an estimate of the terminal value anticipated at the end of the projection period, is then 
discounted.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate consideration transferred and the amount 
recognised for non-controlling interest over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. 

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. 
An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, calculated as the 
higher of fair value less costs of disposal and the value in use. 

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which goodwill is monitored for 
management purposes and allocated to cash generating units (CGU). The assumptions used for determining the recoverable 
amount of the CGU are based on the expectation for the future, utilising both internal and external sources of data and 
relevant market trends.

communities that comprise of two fully mature and income producing sites, two partially completed sites with development 
upside and two greenfield development sites.

The assets and liabilities acquired by ICF were recognised as individual identifiable assets and liabilities at their fair value 
at the date of purchase. The fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired by ICMT under AASB 3 Business 
Combinations at the date of acquisition were:

From the date of acquisition, Seachange contributed $4,821,000 of revenue and $338,000 of profit before tax from 
continuing operations of ICMT. If the combination had taken place at the beginning of FY22, ICMT’s revenue would have 
increased by $8,265,000 and the profit before tax would have increased by $579,000.

The goodwill recognised is primarily attributed to the expected synergies and benefits from combining the assets and 
activities of Seachange with those of ICMT, resulting in a new premium brand for the Group in the growth corridor of South 
East Queensland, integration of a highly-regarded and experienced management team and building development capacity 
in one of the Group’s key market. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. 

Transaction costs of $10,289,000 in ICF and $6,495,000 in ICMT, predominantly stamp duty and advisory costs, have 
been expensed and are included in business combination transaction costs in the statement of profit or loss and are part of

The availability of carried forward tax losses of $9.4 million to the ICMT tax consolidated group is subject to recoupment 
rules at the time of recoupment. Further, the rate at which these losses can be utilised is determined by reference to market 
values at the time of tax consolidation and subsequent events. Accordingly, a portion of these carried forward tax losses 
may not be available in the future.

ICMT offsets tax assets and liabilities, if and only if, it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current 
tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority.

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited22.   Commitments 
ICF has commitments for capital expenditure on investment properties and inventories contracted but not provided for 
at reporting date of $844,539 (30 Jun 2021: $384,036). ICMT has commitments for capital expenditure on investment 
properties and inventories contracted but not provided for at reporting date of $15,648,202 (30 Jun 2021: $26,177,739).

Ingenia committed to invest up to $3.0 million to a special purpose vehicle (SPV) with Land Lease Home Loans (LLHL) a 
loan originator specifically focused on providing secured home loans to residents of land lease communities. The SPV funds 
loans to borrowers seeking to acquire a new lifestyle home and reside in an Ingenia Lifestyle community. The SPV benefits 
from an equitable assignment of the loans made by LLHL. LLHL takes a first loss risk on the loans up to 5%. As at 30 June 
2022, Ingenia has invested $1.0 million into the funding of resident loans (30 Jun 2021: nil). The amount was fully repaid on 
16 August 2022 and the commitment was released following LLHL obtaining third party funding. 

23.  Contingent liabilities
The Trusts have the following contingent liabilities:

 – Bank guarantees totalling $29.8 million provided for under the $780.0 million bank facility.

24.  Capital management
The capital management of ICF and ICMT is managed at a consolidated Group level (ICH and subsidiaries). 

The Group aims to meet its strategic objectives, operational needs and maximise returns to security holders through the 
appropriate use of debt and equity, taking account of the additional financial risks of higher debt levels. 

In determining the optimal capital structure, the Group takes into account a number of factors, including the views of 
investors and the market in general, the capital needs of its portfolio, the relative cost of debt versus equity, the execution 
risk of raising equity or debt, and the additional financial risks of debt including increased volatility of earnings due to 
exposure to interest rate movements, the refinance risk of maturing debt facilities and the potential for acceleration prior to 
maturity. 

In assessing this risk, the Group takes into account the relative stability of its income flows, the predictability of its expenses, 
its debt maturity profile, the degree of hedging and the overall level of debt as measured by gearing.

The actual capital structure at a point in time is the product of a number of factors, many of which are market driven and 
to various degrees outside of the control of the Group, particularly the impact of revaluations, the availability of new equity 
and the liquidity in real estate markets. While the Group periodically determines the optimal capital structure, the ability 
to achieve the optimal structure may be impacted by market conditions and the actual position may often differ from the 
optimal position.

One measure of the Group’s capital position is through the Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) which is a key covenant (less than 55%) 
under the Group’s $780.0 million common terms debt facilities. LVR is calculated as the sum of bank debt, bank guarantees, 
ground leases, and interest rate swaps, less cash at bank, as a percentage of the value of properties pledged as security. The 
Group’s strategy is to maintain an LVR range of 30-40%. As at 30 June 2022, the LVR of 25.7% (30 June 2021: 22.2%).

In addition, the Group monitors Interest Cover Ratio (ICR) as defined under the common terms of the debt facilities. At 
30 June 2022, the Total Interest Cover Ratio was 8.51x (30 Jun 2021: 16.59x) and the Core Interest Cover Ratio was 7.45x 
(30 Jun 2021: 12.86x). The covenant for total ICR and Core ICR is greater than 2x.

25.  Financial instruments

(a)  Introduction
The Trusts’ principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, interest bearing liabilities, other financial liabilities, 
cash and short-term deposits and derivative financial instruments.

The main risks arising from the Trusts’ financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, credit risk and liquidity 
risk. The Trusts manage the exposure to these risks primarily through the Investments, Derivatives, and Borrowing Policy. The 
policy sets out various targets aimed at restricting the financial risk taken by the Trusts. Management reviews actual positions 
of the Trusts against these targets on a regular basis. If the target is not achieved, or the forecast is unlikely to be achieved, 
a plan of action is, where appropriate, put in place with the aim of meeting the target within an agreed timeframe. 

Depending on the circumstances of the Trusts at a point in time, it may be that positions outside of the Investments, 
Derivatives, and Borrowing Policy are accepted and no plan of action is put in place to meet the treasury targets, because, 
for example, the risks associated with bringing the Trusts into compliance outweigh the benefits. The adequacy of the 
Investments, Derivatives, and Borrowing Policy in addressing the risks arising from the Trust’s financial instruments is 
reviewed on a regular basis. 

153

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedYear in reviewFinancial Statements Remuneration ReportSustainabilityOur LeadersDirectors’ ReportIngenia Communities Holdings Limited Annual Report 2022 25.  Financial instruments (continued)
While the Trusts aim to meet the Investments, Derivatives, and Borrowing Policy targets, many factors influence the 
performance, and it is probable that at any one time, not all targets will be met. For example, the Trusts may be unable to 
negotiate the extension of bank facilities sufficiently ahead of time, so that they fail to achieve their liquidity target. When 
refinancing loans they may be unable to achieve the desired maturity profile or the desired level of flexibility of financial 
covenants, because of the cost of such terms or their unavailability. Hedging instruments may not be available, or their cost 
may outweigh the benefit of risk reduction or they may introduce other risks such as mark to market valuation risk. Changes 
in market conditions may limit the Trusts ability to raise capital through the issue of units or sale of properties.

The main risks arising from ICMT’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, credit risk and liquidity 
risk. These risks are not separately managed. Management of these risks for the ICF may result in consequential changes for 
ICMT.

(b)  Interest rate risk
The Trusts’ exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates arises primarily from its use of borrowings. The main 
consequence of adverse changes in market interest rates is higher interest costs, reducing the Trust’s profit. In addition, one 
or more of the Trust’s loan agreements may include minimum interest cover covenants. Higher interest costs resulting from 
increases in market interest rates may result in these covenants being breached, providing the lender the right to call in the 
loan or to increase the interest rate applied to the loan. 

The Trusts manage the risk of changes in market interest rates by maintaining an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate 
borrowings. Fixed rate debt is achieved either through fixed rate debt funding or through derivative financial instruments 
permitted under the Investments, Derivatives, and Borrowing Policy. At 30 June 2022, approximately 17% of the Trusts’ 
borrowings are at a fixed rate with interest rate caps in place to provide further rate protection, bringing the total hedging to 
28% of drawn debt (30 Jun 2021: 50%).

Exposure to changes in market interest rates also arises from financial assets such as cash deposits and loan receivables 
subject to floating interest rate terms. Changes in market interest rates will also change the fair value of any interest rate 
hedges.

(1)  For the purpose of the table above, lease payments for five years are excluded for perpetual leases.

Other financial instruments of the Trusts not included in the above tables are non-interest bearing and are therefore not 
subject to interest rate risk.

The Trusts have entered into ground leases in relation to certain Lifestyle, Holidays and Mixed Use investment properties. 
The leases are long-term in nature and range between 8 years to perpetuity.

Perpetual leases are recognised as investment property and non-current liability at a value of $2.9 million based on a 
capitalisation rate applicable at the time of acquisition of applied to the current lease payment. As a perpetual lease, the 
lease liability will not amortise and no fair value adjustments in relation to the lease will be recognised unless circumstances 
of the lease change.

(d)  Interest rate sensitivity analysis
The impact of an increase or decrease in average interest rates of 1% (100 basis points) at reporting date, with all other 
variables held constant, is illustrated in the tables below. This analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence 
at balance sheet date.

The impact of an increase or decrease in average foreign exchange rates of 10% at reporting date, with all other variables 
held constant, is considered to be limited based on the foreign exchange risk exposures in existence at balance sheet date.

The Trusts believe that the reporting date risk exposures are representative of the risk exposure inherent in its 
financial instruments.

(g)  Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty defaults on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the 
Trusts. 

The major credit risk for the Trusts is default by tenants, resulting in a loss of rental income while a replacement tenant is 
secured and further loss if the rent level agreed with the replacement tenant is below that previously paid by the defaulting 
tenant.

The Trusts’ assess the credit risk of prospective tenants, the credit risk of in-place tenants when acquiring properties and 
the credit risk of existing tenants renewing upon expiry of their leases. Factors taken into account when assessing credit risk 
include the financial strength of the prospective tenant and any form of security, for example a rental bond, to be provided. 

The decision to accept the credit risk associated with leasing space to a particular tenant is balanced against the risk of the 
potential financial loss of not leasing up vacant space.

Rent receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis and arrears actively followed up in order to reduce, where 
possible, the extent of any losses should the tenant subsequently default.

The Responsible Entity believes that the Trusts’ receivables that are neither past due nor impaired do not give rise to any 
significant credit risk.

Credit risk also arises from deposits placed with financial institutions and derivatives contracts that may have a positive 
value to the Trusts. The Trusts’ investment, derivatives, and borrowing policy sets target limits for credit risk exposure with 
financial institutions and minimum counterparty credit ratings. Counterparty exposure is measured as the aggregate of all 
obligations of any single legal entity or economic entity to the Trusts, after allowing for appropriate set offs which are legally 
enforceable.

The Trusts’ maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date in relation to each class of financial instrument is the carrying 
value as reported in the balance sheet.

(h)  Liquidity risk
The main objective of liquidity risk management is to reduce the risk that the Trusts do not have the resources available 
to meet their financial obligations and working capital and committed capital expenditure requirements. The Trusts’ 
investment, derivatives, and borrowing policy sets a target for the level of cash and available undrawn debt facilities to cover 
future committed expenditure in the next year, loan maturities within the next year and an allowance for unforeseen events 
such as tenant default. 

The Trusts may also be exposed to contingent liquidity risk under its term loan facilities, where term loan facilities include 
covenants which if breached give the lender the right to call in the loan, thereby accelerating a cash flow which otherwise 
was scheduled for the loan maturity. The Trusts monitor adherence to loan covenants on a regular basis, and the investment, 
derivatives, and borrowing policy sets targets based on the ability to withstand adverse market movements and remain 
within loan covenant limits.

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the year ended 30 June 2022 | continuedAnnual Report 2022 Ingenia Communities Holdings Limited25.  Financial instruments (continued)
In addition, the Trusts ensures resilience against breaking its covenants on its primary debt facilities by assessing the 
following sensitivities:

 –

 –

10% reduction in value of assets for LVR covenants; and

2% nominal increase in interest rates combined with a 5% fall in income for ICR covenants.

The contractual maturities of the Trusts’ non-derivative financial liabilities at reporting date are reflected in the following 
table. It shows the undiscounted contractual cash flows required to discharge the liabilities including interest at market rates. 
Foreign currencies have been converted at rates of exchange ruling at reporting date.

(i)  Other financial instrument risk 
The Trusts carry residents’ loans at fair value with resulting fair value adjustments recognised in the statement of 
comprehensive income. The fair value of these loans is dependent on market prices for the related retirement village units. 
The impact of an increase or decrease in these market prices of 10% at reporting date, with all other variables held constant, 
is shown in the table below. This analysis is based on the residents’ loans in existence at reporting date.

These effects are largely offset by corresponding changes in the fair value of the Trusts’ investment properties. The effect on

Independent  Audit or's Report  t o t he unit holders of Ingenia Communit ies
Fund

Report  on t he Audit  of t he Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Ingenia Communities Fund (the “ Trust” ) and its subsidiaries
(collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at  30 June 2022, the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equit y and
consolidated cash flow statement for the year then ended, notes to the financial statements, including a
summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.

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

a)

giving a t rue and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2022
and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

b)

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit  in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor
independence requirements of the Corporations Act  2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting
Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants
(including Independence Standards) (t he Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in
Australia. We have also fulfilled our other et hical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

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

Key Audit  Mat t ers

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

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

1. Valuat ion of Invest ment  Propert ies

Why significant

How our audit  addressed t he key audit  mat t er

Approximately 59%of the Group’s total assets
comprise investment properties (both those
recorded as investment properties and those
included within equity accounted investments).
These assets are carried at  fair value, which was
assessed by the directors with reference to
either external independent valuations or
internal valuations and is based on market
conditions existing at reporting date.

The valuation of investment properties is
inherently subjective given that  there are
alternative assumptions and valuation methods
that may result in a range of values.

The key judgements in the valuations include
assumptions related to the long term rental
income, capitalisation rates, discount rates,
market  and contractual rents, forecast
residential occupancy levels, historical
transactions and remaining development
potential for vacant land. In assessing the
development potential, additional key
judgements include future new homes sales
prices, estimated capital expenditure and
allocation of costs between investment property
and inventory, discount rates, projected
property growth rates and operating profit
margins.

Accordingly, the valuation of investment
properties was considered a key audit  matter.

Our audit procedures included the following:

• We assessed the controls in place relevant to

the valuation process;

• We evaluated the suitability of the valuation
methodology used across the portfolio and
tested the valuation reports for
mathematical accuracy on a sample basis;

• We assessed the qualifications, competence
and objectivity of the independent valuation
experts used by the Group;

• We assessed the Group’s internal valuation
methodology and tested the mathematical
accuracy of the valuation models. We also
assessed the qualifications, competence and
objectivity of the internal valuer;

• On a sample basis, we compared the

property related data used as input for both
the external and internal valuations against
actual and budgeted property performance;

• On a sample basis, we considered the key
inputs and assumptions used in the
valuations by comparing this information to
external market data;

• Our real estate valuation specialists reviewed

a sample of internal and independent
valuations to determine whether the key
judgements and methodology used were
appropriate; and

• We assessed the appropriateness of the

allocation of capital expenditure between
investment property and inventory assets.

• We assessed the appropriateness of

disclosures included in Note 9 of the financial
report.

Informat ion Ot her t han t he Financial Report  and Audit or’s Report

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Group’s 2022 Annual Report other than the financial report and our auditor’s report
thereon. We obtained the Directors’ Report that is to be included in the Annual Report, prior to the date
of this auditor’s report, and we expect to obtain the remaining sections of the Annual Report after the
date of this auditor’s report.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not and will not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

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

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

Responsibilit ies of t he Direct ors for t he Financial Report

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

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

Audit or's Responsibilit ies for t he Audit  of t he Financial Report

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

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

·

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

·

·

·

·

·

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How our audit  addressed t he key audit  mat t er

Approximately 72% of the Group’s total assets
comprise investment properties. These assets
are carried at  fair value, which was assessed by
the directors wit h reference to either external
independent valuations or internal valuations,
based on market  conditions existing at  reporting
date.

The Group has two categories of investment
properties as disclosed in Note 9 of the financial
report.

•

•

The Lifestyle portfolio consists of
investment properties earning revenue from
a mix of longer-term land rental agreements
and short-term accommodation rental. In
addition, the group earns revenue from the
sale of manufactured homes to residents of
the properties.

The Tourism portfolio consists of ‘Holidays
and Mixed Use’ investment properties
earning revenue from short-term residential
and tourism rentals.

The valuation of investment properties is
inherently subjective given that  there are
alternative assumptions and valuation methods
that may result in a range of values.

Our audit procedures included the following:

• We assessed the controls in place relevant to

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