Chairman’s Letter

Dear fellow Shareholders,

It is my pleasure to reflect on another successful year for Maas Group Holdings, as the company enjoyed significant growth 

and expanded its operating footprint, enhanced its vertical integration capability and reinvested in the business to provide a 

strong platform for future growth in its key operating segments.

The Company’s strong growth in the past year was through a combination of organic business growth and strategic 

acquisitions in the Civil Construction and Hire, Construction Materials and Real Estate segments.

Our FY22 net profit after tax of $61.6m represented a 78% increase from the prior year’s result on the back of strong 

performances across these 3 operating segments.  This result was particularly pleasing given the higher than expected 

rainfall in the various operating regions, ongoing COVID-19 disruptions and cost challenges associated with global supply 

chain conditions.

In addition to the strong financial results, the Group has invested further in its future with acquisitions totalling $177.5m 

completed during the year in the civil construction and hire, construction materials and real estate segments.  Subsequent 

to year end, MGH has completed a further $50.0m of acquisitions in the construction materials and civil construction and 

hire segments, which will make significant contributions to earnings in future years.

These acquisitions have enabled the Company to enhance its vertical integration capability through the acquisition of 

businesses in the commercial and residential construction sectors, as well as electrical infrastructure services.  In addition 

to an increased vertical integration capability, the Group has expanded its geographical footprint with significant expansion 

in the Central Queensland region with businesses that operate in the civil construction and hire, construction materials and 

real estate segments.

The strong market fundamentals currently underpinning Maas Group, together with the significant investments already 

made in strategic quarry and property portfolios have the Group well placed to deliver strong earnings growth for FY23 and 

beyond.

Maas Group continues to be led by its founder, Wes Maas, and his strong, stable, experienced and passionate management 

team.  Wes and the team operate with a cohesive and high-performance culture and maintain a relentless focus on 

creating value for shareholders.  This focus is a natural alignment for them, given the high level of ongoing shareholding in 

the Company held by Wes and his team.  Given the number of acquisitions during the year, the team has focused on the 

successful integration of the acquired business and maintaining the strong culture of the business.  The Group’s culture has 

been a key foundation for the success and growth of the business to date. Management remains committed to ensuring 

that the high-performance culture is maintained across every part of its operations, including being instilled in its acquired 

businesses.

The Company has continued to maintain a safe working environment with a “safety first” culture and a focus on continual 

improvement.  During the year, the Company also continued efforts to reduce the risk of the COVID-19 virus within the 

workforce to minimise disruption to its operations.

I would like to thank my fellow Directors for their support and commitment during the year.  I would like to thank our 

former Director Neal O’Connor for his efforts and contribution during his time on the Board.  I would also like to thank and 

congratulate our executive management team, led by Wes Maas, for their efforts to deliver an outstanding financial result 

and provide a strong platform to achieve continued business growth.

All our staff, contractors and suppliers have contributed to Maas Group’s successful year and their efforts are also 

acknowledged and greatly appreciated.

“The strong market fundamentals 

currently underpinning Maas 
Group, together with the significant 
investments already made in strategic 
quarry and property portfolios, have 
the Group well placed to deliver strong 
earnings growth for FY23 and beyond.

Finally, thank you to our shareholders for your ongoing support of the Company, including participation in the Company’s 

capital raisings over the past year.  Together, we continue to build a great Australian business and I look forward to your 

continuing support and reporting to you in 12 months on another year of substantial achievement and growth for Maas 

Group.

Yours sincerely

Stephen Bizzell

At Maas, we have a reputation for doing what we say we are going to do, and our FY22 result is again evidence of that 

Care and commitment

commitment. 

Despite the challenges faced by many businesses over the last 12 months, Maas has delivered another year of strong growth, 

with net profit after tax of $61.6m representing a 78% increase from the prior year’s result. This progress has been driven 

through a combination of organic business growth and strategic acquisitions in the Civil Construction and Hire, Construction 

Materials and Real Estate segments. 

The culture at Maas is truly unique to our business and is supported by our strong set of organisational values. 

As we have grown and expanded in both headcount and geographies, a key focus has been ensuring the strong culture and 

guiding principles upon which the business was founded remain strong. Most critical to that is our commitment to the safety 

of our people. This year, the business launched the Health and Safety Strategy 2022 – 2024, which clearly outlines the three 

pillars to focus our safety efforts and deliver results – our people; risk management; and systems. These pillars are supported

Financial results and capital investments 

At a Group level, we continue to invest in retaining our people through programs to support home-grown talent 

development, as well as attracting new talent so our business can continue to deliver into the future.

The business has achieved proforma EBITDA of $125.1m. This result represents a growth of 65% on the prior financial year and

will increase our residential real estate inventory to over 8,000 lots. We also invested in growing our current capability in the 

specialist electrical category with the acquisition of Garde. This established brand will further support our civil capability in 

both metro and regional markets.

We continued our investment in commercial real estate assets through the acquisition of Spacey Self Storage, David Payne 

Constructions, Maas Constructions and Astleys. These companies also bring strong leadership, with an experienced and 

capable team underpinning them well into the future. 

These acquisitions, along with several other near-term opportunities currently underway, are paving the path for strong 

earnings growth in FY23 and beyond. Entering FY23, Maas predicts pro forma EBITDA in the range of $180 - $200m, 

representing year-on-year expected proforma EBITDA growth of between 44% - 60%.

I would like to thank the Board of Directors for their guidance, support and commitment over the last 12 months, as we have 

propelled the company forward. I would also like to acknowledge our former Director, Neal O’Connor (resigned 1 August 2022) 

for his contribution this year.  

Finally, to our Shareholders, thank you for your trust over the last 12 months. I assure you of my continued dedication to 

growing the company and continuing to deliver on what we say we will.

I am excited about the next 12 months and beyond. Maas is constantly looking forward and challenging the way we do 

things, so we can exceed our goals and achieve excellent outcomes for our shareholders, our people, our customers and our 

communities. Our culture of success, performance, care and commitment will support us to achieve our objectives.

Safety 

Our most important asset is our people, and we believe all workers should return home safely at the end of the day. The 

safety of our workforce will always be our highest priority.  This belief drives a strong commitment to the health, safety and 

wellbeing of our workers, which is supported by our Work, Health and Safety (“WHS”) management systems and practices, 

which are wide-ranging and tailored to the risk profile of each business unit.  

Our Health and Safety Strategy 2022 – 2024 has three key pillars to focus our efforts and deliver results. 

1.    Our People: Centred around our culture and the implementation of our Safety Slogan “Think Safe, Act Safe, Look After 
Your Mate”. The Maas Safety Slogan outlines the behaviours we commit to and unifies us as a team. It focuses everyone 

on the same safe behaviours and sets the business' expectations for all Business Units and all employees. 

2.    Risk Management: Maas has introduced Critical Risk Standards for situations or hazardous activity that have the 

potential to lead to a fatality if established controls and defences are ineffective. Our targeted risk-based approach, 

together with our behaviours, will deliver engaged leaders, empowered workers and positive safety culture.

3.    Systems: Our WHS management systems are underpinned by effective consultation and risk management protocols 
that aim to protect workers from harm, ensure legislative compliance and secure safety standards. The key elements 

of the Maas WHS management system are commitment, planning and design, implementation and integration, 

measurement, evaluation and ongoing refinement. The Maas WHS management system is continuously improving and

building on existing health and safety processes. 

Our key pillars are supported by genuine consultation 

that empowers workers to take ownership and provide 

innovative solutions to uphold WHS standards. In 

addition, ongoing communication facilitates engaged 

and accountable leadership, which creates trust and 

positive safety culture within the workforce. 

Our benchmark Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate 

(LTIFR) per 1 million hours worked was 3.6. This is an 

improvement of 35% this financial year.

Annual Report 2022

Environment 

Maas is committed to managing and minimising its environmental footprint in a 

responsible manner. Our businesses are governed by numerous pieces of legislation 

that mandate various environmental management practices. We have established 

an Environmental Management Framework to ensure environmental obligations 

are identified and management strategies implemented across operations from 

planning through to operations. The processes we undertake, and which form part 

of our Environmental Management Framework include:

■   Ensuring environmental management is part of our decision-making process;

■   Assigning accountability for environmental performance to individuals within the 

■  

business;

■   Engaging with all stakeholders (clients, communities, competitors and 

regulators) to foster a culture of continual environmental improvement; and

■   Using appropriate controls to mitigate environmental impacts and promote 

sustainable use of resources.

In addition to adopting environmentally responsible business practices in relation 

to our operations, Maas has implemented a number of initiatives that contribute to 

minimise the environmental impact of our operations and communities.  Examples 

of these initiatives include:

■   Construction of residential dwellings in accordance with the Buildings 

Sustainability Index (BASIX).  Our housing designs consider the thermal comfort 

of the dwelling and incorporate water harvesting through the use of rainwater 

tanks.  Additionally, Maas offers customers the choice of incorporating alternative 

energy solutions through the use of solar;

■   Civil construction utilises water management initiatives, including the harvesting 

and recycling of water that is used in dust suppression;

■   Our Central Queensland quarries recycle fly ash (by-product of burning coal) for 

use in the manufacture of concrete.  Fly ash utilisation, especially in concrete, 

has significant environmental benefits, including the life of concrete roads and 

structures due to improved concrete durability; net reduction in energy use; 

greenhouse gas and other adverse air emissions when fly ash is used to replace 

or displace cement powder; reduction of coal by-products used in landfill; and 

improved water efficiency in the concrete mixing process.

Maas is currently conducting feasibility studies into the use of hydrogen as a fuel 

supplement and establishing small scale solar farms on quarry buffer zones to 

supplement power required for local operations.

Corporate Governance

Maas has adopted the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 

(4th edition) (“ASX Recommendations”) to the extent appropriate for the size, 

nature and maturity of the Group’s operations. Maas has prepared a statement 

that sets out the corporate governance practices that were in operation during 

the year and have identified any of the ASX Recommendations which have not 

been followed, and where appropriate, provides reasons for not following the ASX 

Recommendations. The Group’s Corporate Governance Statement and policies are 

available on our website at:

VMS Factory “3 Onsite”  
At the peak of Vietnam’s 4th COVID-19 

wave, the Vietnamese Government 

subject factories operating in the Ho 

Chi Minh City region to “3 on-site” 

rules requiring them to either house 

staff on-site or suspend operations. 

From July to September 2021, 130 

employees volunteered to be housed 

in a COVID-19 bubble at the factory. 

Maas supported their employees with 

3 meals a day, regular laundry services, 

bedding, recreational activities, and 

entertainment. 

The team created their own routine 

of morning group exercises, building 

and maintaining fruit and vegetable 

gardens, as well as creating lanterns to 

decorate and brighten up their space.

“

Those playgrounds and common activities 
create a comfortable atmosphere that spreads 
to each employee, helping them to forget their 
homesickness, turning the days of quarantine 
prevention into a special holiday, fitness, bonding.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Proforma EBITDA are non-IFRS earnings measures which do not have any standardised 
meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to EBITDA presented by other companies. These 
measures, which are unaudited, are important to management as an additional way to evaluate the consolidated entity’s 
performance. 
Adjusted EBITDA excludes the effects of significant items of income and expenditure which may have an impact on 
the quality of earnings because of isolated or non-recurring events. It also excludes bargain purchases from business 
combinations. Interest income and finance costs have been allocated to segments, however going forward this type of 
activity will be driven by a central treasury function and will therefore not be allocated to segments. 
Refer to segment note 4 to the financial statements for further details of the consolidated entity’s results which have been 
broken down to 4 segments: (1) Real Estate; (2) Civil, Construction and Hire; (3) Manufacturing; and (4) Construction Materials. 
Proforma EBITDA is adjusted for the pre-acquisition EBITDA of business combinations where the company is entitled to pre-
completion profits and non-operational items during the year including share-based payments and fair value movement of 
contingent consideration. 
As noted above, the Real Estate, Civil, Construction and Hire and Construction Materials operating segments enjoyed 
increased performance in FY22 compared to the prior year. Operating results of all segments is summarised below. 
The Real Estate segment increased adjusted EBITDA by 144% to $53.242m for the year (FY21: $21.855m) through a 
combination of improved performance from both the residential and commercial real estate divisions. Including Build-to-
Rent, Residential settlements for FY22 were 270 settlements as compared to 230 settlements in FY21 with FY22 settlements 
achieving a higher margin per lot compared to FY21. This combined with fair value adjustments of $18.843m (FY21: $9.284m) 
of the Commercial Property division, along with the performance of the Commercial Construction businesses (acquired 
during FY22) underpinned the strong result for the segment. 
The Civil, Construction and Hire segment saw an increase in adjusted EBITDA to $49.782m (FY21: $36.531m) representing 
an increase of 36.2%. Each of the business units comprising the segment performed in accordance with expectations with 
market conditions continuing to strengthen into FY23. 
The Construction Materials segment increased adjusted EBITDA to $27.331m (FY21: $13.402m) representing an increase of 
103.7%. The result was achieved despite higher-than-expected rainfall across operating regions for the year and vendor led 
delays to key project deliverables including the Inland Rail. These delays have led to a strong pipeline of work to be delivered 
in FY23.

Directors’ report 
30 June 2022

The Manufacturing segment witnessed adjusted EBITDA of $1.791m (FY21: $4.847m) in the period representing a decrease of 
63%. The result was largely driven by COVID-19, impacting factory and production capacity as well as managing the current 
global logistics and procurement challenges. The sales pipeline built through FY22 however has provided a platform for the 
operating segment to deliver improved performance in FY23 with increased sales of machines and spare parts. 
The consolidated entity enjoyed its first full year as a listed entity on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). This has 
proven fruitful with continued access to capital to assist the growth witnessed during the period via Share Placement Plans, 
Conditional Placements, Dividend Reinvestment Plans and Capital Raises. Support from banking partners was also noted 
during the period with the extension of total facilities to $500.000m. 
FY22 continued to represent a strong year of growth by acquisition with MGH completing multiple acquisitions across key 
operating segments including Redimix Tamworth (Construction Materials), Inverell Aggregates (Construction Materials), 
A1 Earthworx (Civil, Construction and Hire), Stanaway (Real Estate), Maas Brothers (Real Estate), Brett Harvey Designs 
(Real Estate), Westwood Quarries (Construction Materials), Dawson Quarries (Construction Materials), Earth Commodities 
(Construction Materials), Blackwater Quarries (Construction Materials), Astleys (Real Estate) and Garde (Civil, Construction 
and Hire). For further information on completed transactions, refer below and also to note 37 Business Combinations. 
In addition to these completed acquisitions, the consolidated entity also increased its residential and commercial 
development footprint through the various acquisitions of the future master planned sites. The major acquisitions were in 
Dubbo (RAAF Base Dubbo, Liberal Site, Church Street), Rockhampton (Ellida Estate), Orange (Leeds Parade), Self Storage 
(Canberra, Albury, Dubbo, Bathurst, Goulburn, Kempsey) and Yatala.  
The consolidated entity also announced further pending acquisitions to the ASX subsequent to 30 June 2022 with some of 
these settling since year-end. Refer note 39 further information in relation to subsequent events.

Directors’ report 
30 June 2022

Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year 

(a) Share Placement  
On 29 July 2022, the company announced its intention to undertake a capital raising of $105.000m via a Placement, 
comprising an Institutional Placement of $35.000m and a Founder and Management Placement of $70.000m via two 
separate tranches. Proceeds of the capital raising will be used to fund growth and acquisition initiatives, including near-
term opportunities in the Construction Materials segment. Directors of MGH (or entities associated with them) and other 
Founding Shareholders and executives of MGH have committed approximately $70.000m in the Founder and Management 
Placement (subject to shareholder approval for related parties). 
On 3 August 2022, MGH issued 8,750,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the company to institutional and professional investors 
under the Institutional Placement announced on 29 July 2022. The company also issued 1,287,500 fully paid ordinary shares 
in the company under Tranche 1 of the Founder and Management Placement announced on 29 July 2022. The second 
tranche is due to close post the meeting of shareholders to consider the proposed placement to directors of MGH, which if 
approved, is expected to occur in October 2022. 

(b) Share purchase plan (SPP) 
On 19 July 2022 MGH issued 636,364 fully paid shares in the company at an issue price of $5.50. These were the remaining 
shares to be issued to investors pursuant to outstanding commitments to subscribe for the Share Purchase Plan Shortfall 
previously announced and approved at the 2021 Annual General Meeting of 9 November 2021. 
On 29 July 2022, as part of the capital raising announcement on 29 July 2022 outlined in (a) above, MGH also offered a Share 
Purchase Plan to eligible Australian and New Zealand shareholders to raise up to $10.000m. The results of the SPP are due to 
be announced on 19 August 2022. 

(c) Dividend 
The Directors declared a fully franked final dividend of 3.5 cents per share on 18 August 2022, which reflects a full year 
dividend of 5.5 cents per share, an increase of 10% from the prior year. 

(d) Acquisition 
Schwarz 
On 1 July 2022, the consolidated entity entered into an agreement to acquire Schwarz Excavations Pty Ltd (Schwarz) for an 
initial cash payment of $34.858m and the issue of 913,194 shares in MGH for a total consideration of $38.620m (Acquisition 
Consideration). Further cash consideration may be payable, contingent on Schwarz achieving certain EBITDA targets for the 
three financial years following completion up to $3.000m. The acquisition completed on 22 July 2022. The financial effects 
of this transaction have not been recognised at 30 June 2022. The operating results and assets and liabilities of the acquired 
business will be consolidated from completion. The Schwarz business operations will be reported in the Civil, Construction & 
Hire segment. 

No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2022 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the 
consolidated entity’s operations, the results of those operations, or the consolidated entity’s state of affairs in future financial 
years. 

Likely developments and expected results of operations 
Other than the following acquisitions listed below, no other information on likely developments in the operations of the 
consolidated entity and the expected results of operations have been included in this report because the directors believe it 
would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the consolidated entity. 

Clermont Quarries 
On 29 July 2022, the consolidated entity announced that it had entered into a binding agreement to acquire four hard rock 
quarries and two sand quarries in the Isaac Region of Central Queensland. The agreement, which is an agreement to acquire 
the business and assets, is subject to various third-party consents and customary completion conditions with the transaction 
expected to complete by the end of August 2022. The consideration for the acquisition is $12.750m plus an amount for stock 
of up to $2.200m, finalised at completion. The financial effects of this transaction have not been recognised at 30 June 2022. 
The quarries will be reported in the Construction Materials segment. 

Environmental regulation 
The consolidated entity is subject to various environmental regulations under Australian Commonwealth and State law. The 
consolidated entity has conducted its operations in accordance with the legislation listed above and has not breached nor 
been subject to any penalty by the relevant authority.

Directors’ report 
30 June 2022

Remuneration report - audited 
The remuneration report details the key management personnel remuneration arrangements for the consolidated entity, in 
accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. 
Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling 
the activities of the entity, directly or indirectly, including all directors. 
The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings: 
•  Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
•  Details of remuneration 
•  Service agreements 
•  Share-based compensation 
•  Additional information 
•  Additional disclosures relating to key management personnel

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
The objective of the consolidated entity’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive 
and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of strategic 
objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and it is considered to conform to the market best practice for the 
delivery of reward. The Board of Directors (‘the Board’) ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for 
good reward governance practices: 
•  competitiveness and reasonableness 
•  acceptability to shareholders 
•  performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation 
•  transparency 
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements 
for its directors and executives. The performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and 
executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract, motivate and retain high performance and high quality personnel. 
The reward framework is designed to align executive reward to shareholders’ interests. The Board have considered that it 
should seek to enhance shareholders’ interests by: 
•  having economic profit as a core component of plan design 
• 

 focusing on sustained growth in shareholder wealth, consisting of dividends and growth in share price, and delivering 
constant or increasing return on assets as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value 

•  attracting and retaining high calibre executives 
Additionally, the reward framework should seek to enhance executives’ interests by: 
•  rewarding capability and experience 
•  reflecting competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth 
•  providing a clear structure for earning rewards 
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and executive director 
remuneration is separate. 

Non-executive directors remuneration 
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands and responsibilities of their role. Non-executive directors’ 
fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee. The Remuneration and 
Nomination Committee may, from time to time, receive advice from independent remuneration consultants to ensure 
non-executive directors’ fees and payments are appropriate and in line with the market. The chairman’s fees are determined 
independently to the fees of other non-executive directors based on comparative roles in the external market. The chairman 
is not present at any discussions relating to the determination of his own remuneration. Non-executive directors do not 
receive share options or other incentives.  
ASX listing rules require the aggregate non-executive directors’ remuneration be determined periodically by a general 
meeting. The maximum aggregate amount which has been approved by MGH shareholders for payments to the directors is 
$0.750m per annum. The most recent determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 21 October 2020, where the 
shareholders approved a maximum annual aggregate remuneration of $0.750m.

30 June 2022

Executive remuneration 
The consolidated entity aims to reward executives based on their position and responsibility, with a level and mix of 
remuneration which has both fixed and variable components. 
The executive remuneration and reward framework has two components: 
•  base pay and non-monetary benefits 
•  variable remuneration – short term incentives 
•  other remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave 
The combination of these comprises the executive’s total remuneration. 
Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation and non-monetary benefits, are reviewed annually by the 
Non-executive Chairman based on individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of the consolidated 
entity and comparable market remunerations. 
Executives may receive their fixed remuneration in the form of cash or other fringe benefits (for example motor vehicle 
benefits) where it does not create any additional costs to the consolidated entity and provides additional value to the 
executive. 
The objectives of short-term incentives (‘STI’) currently in place are to link the achievement of the consolidated entity’s 
operational success with the remuneration received by the executive charged with meeting informally agreed key 
performance indicators (‘KPI’s’). It is a cash incentive set to provide sufficient incentive to the executive to achieve the 
KPIs. The only executive entitled to an STI is the CFO under the terms of his employment contract. The total potential STI 
is set at 20% of base salary (total opportunity: $0.072m). KPI’s include criteria at both an individual and consolidated entity 
level including individual and company performance. The CFO’s 30 June 2021 STI (2021 STI) was assessed for the period 4 
December 2020 to 30 June 2021 and amounted to $0.042m. The CFO’s 30 June 2022 STI (2022 STI) amounted to $0.072m. 
Both the 2021 STI and 2022 STI were accrued for in the 30 June 2022 financial year.  
There are currently no long-term incentives. 

Use of remuneration consultants 
The consolidated entity did not engage remuneration consultants during the year ended 30 June 2022.  
Voting and comments made at the company’s 9 November 2021 Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’) 
At the 9 November 2021 AGM, 99.98% of the votes received supported the adoption of the remuneration report for the year 
ended 30 June 2021. The company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM regarding its remuneration practices.

Details of remuneration

Indemnity and insurance of Directors, Officers or auditor 
The company has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the 
company or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor. 
During the financial year, the company has not paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the company 
or any related entity. 
Proceedings on behalf of the company 
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf 
of the company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility 
on behalf of the company for all or part of those proceedings.
During the financial year the company paid a premium to insure each of the directors against liabilities for costs and 
expenses incurred by them in defending any legal proceedings arising out of their conduct while acting in a capacity of 
Director other than conduct involving a wilful breach of duty in relation to the Group. The contract of insurance prohibits 
the disclosure of the nature of the liabilities covered and the amount of the premium paid. The Corporations Act does not 
require disclosure of the information in these circumstances. 

Proceedings on behalf of the company 
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf 
of the company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility 
on behalf of the company for all or part of those proceedings.

Non-audit services 
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor 
are outlined in note 33 to the financial statements. 
The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another 
person or firm on the auditor’s behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by 
the Corporations Act 2001. 
The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 33 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor’s independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 
• 

 all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of 
the auditor; and 
 none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code 
of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including 
reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the company, 
acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

Note 1. General information 
The financial statements cover MAAS Group Holdings Limited as a consolidated entity consisting of MAAS Group Holdings 
Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year. The financial statements are presented in Australian 
dollars, which is MAAS Group Holdings Limited’s functional and presentation currency. 
MAAS Group Holdings Limited is an ASX listed company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. 
A description of the nature of the consolidated entity’s operations and its principal activities are included in note 4 - 
Operating Segments.  
The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 18 August 2022. The 
directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. 

Note 2. Significant accounting policies 
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out either in the respective 
notes or below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.  

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 
The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of 
these standards and interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the 
consolidated entity. 
Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. 

Basis of preparation 
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate 
for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as 
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’). 

Historical cost convention 
The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where 
applicable, by the measurement at fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and investment properties. 
Assets held for sale are measured at fair value less costs of disposal, with the exception of investment property held for sale 
which is measured at fair value. 

Critical accounting estimates 
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires 
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity’s accounting policies. The areas 
involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the 
financial statements, are disclosed in note 3. 

Parent entity information 
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. 
Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 36. 

Principles of consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of MAAS Group Holdings 
Limited (‘company’ or ‘parent entity’) as at 30 June 2022 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. MAAS 
Group Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the ‘consolidated 
entity’. 
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity 
when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has 
the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated 
from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control 
ceases. 
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are 
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset 
transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies 
adopted by the consolidated entity. 
The acquisition of subsidiaries in a business combination is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting - refer 
note 37. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the 
difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is 
recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.
Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and 
non-controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The 
consolidated entity recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained 
together with any gain or loss in profit or loss. 

The above consolidated statement of cash flows should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes

Foreign currency translation 
Functional and presentation currency 
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars ($), which is MAAS Group Holdings Limited’s 
functional and presentation currency. 

Transactions and balances 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the 
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation 
of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in 
profit or loss. They are deferred in equity if they relate to qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges 
or are attributable to part of the net investment in a foreign operation. 
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the statement of profit or loss and other 
comprehensive income, within finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a net basis within other gains/(losses). 
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the 
date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as 
part of the fair value gain or loss. For example, translation differences on non-monetary assets and liabilities such as equities 
held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss and translation 
differences on non-monetary assets such as equities classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income are 
recognised in other comprehensive income. 

Group companies 
The results and financial position of foreign operations that have a functional currency different from the presentation 
currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: 
•  assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the reporting date 
• 

 income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated at average 
exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the 
transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions), and 

•  all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. 
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and 
of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are recognised in other 
comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, 
the associated exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.  
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of 
the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate. 

Financial instruments 
Investments and other financial assets  

Classification  
The consolidated entity classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:  
• 

 those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income (“OCI”), or through profit or 
loss), and 
those to be measured at amortised cost. 

• 
The classification depends on the consolidated entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the 
contractual terms of the cash flows.  
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. 
For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For 
investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the consolidated entity has 
made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through 
other comprehensive income (FVOCI). The consolidated entity reclassifies debt investments when and only when its 
business model for managing those assets changes. 

Measurement 
At initial recognition, the consolidated entity measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset 
not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial 
asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss.  
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are 
solely payment of principal and interest. Measurement of cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables are 
measured at amortised cost. 

Cash and cash equivalents 
Refer to note 9. 

Debt instruments 
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the consolidated entity’s business model for managing the 
asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the consolidated 
entity classifies its debt instruments: 
• 

 Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely 
payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is 
included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is 
recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses), together with foreign exchange gains and losses. 
Impairment losses are presented as a separate line item in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income. 
 FVOCI: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets’ 
cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying 
amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign 
exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the 
cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other 
gains/(losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest 
rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in other gains/(losses) and impairment expenses are 
presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.  
 FVPL: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A gain or loss on a debt 
investment that is subsequently measured at FVPL is recognised in profit or loss and presented net within other gains/
(losses) in the period in which it arises. 

• 

• 

Equity instruments  
The consolidated entity subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. The consolidated entity measures its 
investments in equity instruments at FVPL. Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVPL are recognised in other 
gains/(losses) in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as applicable. 

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income 
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include equity investments which the consolidated entity 
intends to hold for the foreseeable future and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon initial recognition.  

Investments 
Investments includes non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities where the 
consolidated entity has the positive intention and ability to hold the financial asset to maturity. This category excludes 
financial assets that are held for an undefined period. Investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest 
rate method adjusted for any principal repayments. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is 
derecognised or impaired. 

Impairment  
The consolidated entity assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments 
carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a 
significant increase in credit risk. For trade receivables and contract assets, the consolidated entity applies the simplified 
approach permitted by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the trade 
receivables and contract assets. 
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected 
credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset’s lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable 
to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it 
is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset’s lifetime expected credit 
losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of 
anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate. 
For financial assets mandatorily measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is 
recognised in other comprehensive income with a corresponding expense through profit or loss. In all other cases, the loss 
allowance reduces the asset’s carrying value with a corresponding expense through profit or loss.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Impairment of non-financial assets 
At the end of each reporting period, the consolidated entity assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be 
impaired. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount 
of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any 
excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the consolidated entity estimates the 
recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

Finance costs 
Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred, except where they are included in 
the costs of qualifying assets. The capitalisation rate used to determine the amount of finance costs to be capitalised to 
qualifying assets is the weighted average interest rate applicable to the entity’s borrowings during the period.  
Finance costs include interest on bank overdrafts and short-term and long-term borrowings, amortisation of discounts 
or premiums relating to borrowings, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of 
borrowings, finance lease charges and certain exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings. 

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes 
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not 
recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of 
the expense. 
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST 
recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of 
financial position. 
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities 
which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. 
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority. 

Rounding of amounts 
The company is of a kind referred to in Corporations Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments 
Commission, relating to 'rounding-off'. Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Corporations 
Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar. 

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted 
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet 
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2022. The 
consolidated entity has not yet assessed the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations. 

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions 
that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and 
estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, 
estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, 
management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will 
seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a 
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial 
year are discussed below. 

Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic 
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may 
have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and 
services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity operates. Other 
than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial 
statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the consolidated entity 
unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
30 June 2022

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued)

Allowance for expected credit losses 
The allowance for expected credit losses assessment for trade receivables and contract assets requires a degree of 
estimation and judgement. It is based on the lifetime expected credit loss, grouped based on days overdue, and makes 
assumptions to allocate an overall expected credit loss rate for each group. These assumptions include recent sales 
experience, historical collection rates, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and forward-looking information that is 
available. Refer to note 10 for further information. 

Estimation of useful lives of assets 
The consolidated entity determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its 
property, plant and equipment and finite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of 
technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are 
less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be 
written off or written down. There was no adjustment required to the estimated useful lives of any assets during the financial 
year (2021: no adjustment). 

Goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets 
The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, 
whether goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets have suffered any impairment. The recoverable amounts of 
cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of 
assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of the estimated 
future cash flows. Refer to note 18 for further information. 

Investment properties 
Investment properties are revalued annually by independent professional valuers or periodically at Directors’ valuation. 
The critical inputs underlying the estimated fair value of investment properties are contained in note 30. Any change in 
these inputs may impact the fair value of the investment properties. The fair value assessment of the investment properties 
includes the best estimate of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic using information available at the reporting date. 

Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets 
The consolidated entity assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible 
assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that 
may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves 
fair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions 
including the best estimate of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic using information available at the reporting date. 

Incremental borrowing rate 
Where the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated to 
discount future lease payments to measure the present value of the lease liability at the lease commencement date. Such a 
rate is based on what the consolidated entity estimates it would have to pay a third party to borrow the funds necessary to 
obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security and economic environment. 

Business Combinations 
(i) Deferred consideration and contingent consideration 
The deferred consideration liability is the difference between the total purchase consideration, usually on an acquisition 
of a business combination, and the amounts paid or settled up to the reporting date, discounted to net present value. 
Contingent consideration included in Provisions (note 23), is measured at fair value and has been estimated using present 
value techniques by discounting the probability-weighted estimated cashflows. The future cashflows are contingent on 
certain hurdles being met in the future and where contingent consideration includes a variable number of shares, the 
contingent liability fair value is affected by the fluctuations in the company’s share price (on date of acquisition and each 
reporting date). The consolidated entity applies provisional accounting for any business combination. Any reassessment of 
the liability during the earlier of the finalisation of the provisional accounting or 12 months from acquisition date is adjusted 
for retrospectively as part of the provisional accounting rules in accordance with AASB 3 Business Combinations. Thereafter, 
at each reporting date, the contingent consideration liability is reassessed against revised estimates and any increase or 
decrease in the fair value of the liability will result in a corresponding gain or loss to profit or loss. The increase in the deferred 
consideration liability resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. 
(ii) Fair value of net assets acquired 
Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The fair value of assets acquired, liabilities and 
contingent liabilities assumed are initially estimated by the consolidated entity taking into consideration all available 
information at the reporting date. Fair value adjustments on the finalisation of the business combination accounting 
is retrospective, where applicable, to the period the combination occurred and may have an impact on the assets and 
liabilities, depreciation and amortisation reported. Refer to note 37 for further information.

Note 4. Operating segments 

Identification of reportable operating segments 
The reportable segments of the business are as follows: 

Segment  
1. Real Estate  

Description of segment 
 - Residential Development: develops, builds and sells residential housing estates 
- Commercial Construction: builds and constructs commercial developments 
-  Commercial Development and Investment: delivers commercial property and industrial 

developments, and investing in commercial real estate 

2. Civil, Construction and Hire   -  Civil Construction: civil infrastructure construction, roads, dams and mining infrastructure 

-  Plant Hire and Sales: above and underground plant hire for major infrastructure and 

tunnelling projects 

- Electrical Services: electrical infrastructure, communications and specialised services 
-  Underground Equipment Hire and Repair: hires, maintains, rebuilds and sells second-hand 

mobile equipment for civil tunnelling and underground hard rock mining 

3. Manufacturing  

-  Manufacturing, sales and distribution of underground construction and mining equipment 

and parts   

4. Construction Materials  

Other  

- Quarries: supply of quarry materials to construction projects 
- Crushing and Screening: mobile crushing and screening for quarries, civil works and mining 
- Geotechnical services 
- This includes head office.  

The operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are 
identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of 
resources. There is no aggregation of operating segments. 
The CODM reviews EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation). The accounting policies adopted 
for internal reporting to the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements. 
The information reported to the CODM is on a monthly basis. 

Intersegment transactions 
Intersegment transactions were made at market rates. Intersegment transactions are eliminated on consolidation. 

Intersegment receivables, payables and loans 
Intersegment loans are initially recognised at the consideration received. Intersegment loans receivable and loans payable 
that earn or incur non-market interest are not adjusted to fair value based on market interest rates. Intersegment loans are 
eliminated on consolidation. 

Segment assets 
Segment assets are measured in the same way as in the financial statements. These assets are allocated based on the 
operations of the segment and the physical location of the asset. 

Segment liabilities 
Segment liabilities are measured in the same way as in the financial statements. These liabilities are allocated based on the 
operations of the segment. 

Major customers 
For the year ended 30 June 2022, there was no customer who contributed more than 10% to the consolidated entity's 
revenue. For the year ended 30 June 2021, there was one customer who contributed more than 10% to the consolidated 
entity's revenue.

Geographical information 
For the financial year ended 30 June 2022, revenue from external customers attributed to foreign countries amounted 
to $9.137m (30 June 2021: $16.340m). This related to the sales of underground equipment and toll manufacturing from 
the Manufacturing segment. Countries where revenue from the sale of underground equipment directly and through 
international distribution networks included Mongolia, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand. No revenues 
attributed to an individual foreign country is material.   
The total non-current assets, other than financial instruments and deferred tax assets, located in Australia amounted to 
$657.620m (2021 - $353.418m) and non-current assets located in foreign countries (Vietnam and Indonesia) amounted to 
$9.554m (2021 - $9.664m). No non-current assets in an individual foreign country are material. 

Accounting policy for operating segments 
Operating segments are presented using the ‘management approach’, where the information presented is on the same 
basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers (‘CODM’). The CODM is responsible for the 
allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.

Accounting policy for revenue recognition 
Construction - civil infrastructure  
The consolidated entity derives revenue from the construction of civil infrastructure projects, including roads, railways, 
tunnels, water, energy and resources facilities across Australia. Contracts entered into may be for the construction of one or 
several separate stages in a project (deliverables). The construction of each individual deliverable is generally taken to be one 
performance obligation. Where contracts are entered for the building of deliverables, the total transaction price is allocated 
across each deliverable based on stand-alone selling prices. The transaction price is normally fixed at the start of the project. 
It is normal practice for contracts to include bonus and penalty elements based on timely construction or other performance 
criteria known as variable consideration, discussed below.  

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
30 June 2022

Note 5. Revenue (continued)
The performance obligation is fulfilled over time and as such revenue is recognised over time. As work is performed on the 
assets being constructed they are controlled by the customer and have no alternative use to the consolidated entity, with 
the consolidated entity having a right to payment for performance to date.  
Generally, contracts identify various inter-linked activities required in the construction process. Revenue is recognised on the 
measured output of each process based on appraisals that are agreed with the customer on a regular basis.  
Revenue earned is typically invoiced monthly or in some cases on achievement of milestones or to match major capital 
outlay.  
Invoices are paid on normal commercial terms, which may include the customer withholding a retention amount until 
finalisation of the construction. Certain construction projects entered into receive payment prior to work being performed in 
which case revenue is deferred on the statement of financial position.  

Construction - residential & commercial 
The consolidated entity derives revenue from the construction of residential houses and commercial developments in the 
NSW and ACT areas. Contracts entered into for the construction of a residential dwelling or commercial developments are to 
be taken to be one performance obligation and a stand-alone selling price. The performance obligation is fulfilled over time 
and as such revenue is recognised over time. As work is performed on the assets being constructed they are controlled by 
the customer and have no alternative use to the consolidated entity, with the consolidated entity having a right to payment 
for performance to date. 
Generally, contracts identify various inter-linked activities required in the construction process. Revenue is recognised on the 
measured input, being stage of completion of costs incurred against budgeted costs. Stage of completion is determined 
with reference to the services performed to date as a percentage of total anticipated services to be performed.  
Customers are invoiced based on the achievement of milestones (included in the contract). Payment is received following 
invoice on normal commercial terms. At reporting date, the amounts invoiced are likely to differ from the stage of 
completion. The difference is recognised as either a contract asset or contract liability. 

Equipment and machinery hire 
The consolidated entity generates revenue from the provision of dry hire and wet hire of plant and equipment to many 
infrastructure projects throughout Australia. Contracts include separate mobilisation and demobilisation fees and a 
schedule of rates for the dry hire or wet hire. Dry hire revenue is generated from hire of equipment only, no supply of driver, 
maintenance or fuel, whereas wet hire includes a driver and can include maintenance services and fuel.  
These form of contracts may vary in scope however all wet hires have one common performance obligation, being the 
provision of equipment and driver to the customer which includes mobilisation and dismantling, and maintenance services 
and any ancillary materials that are required to fulfil the obligation. 
The mobilisation fees, maintenance services and ancillary materials are generally taken to be one performance obligation as 
the customer does not benefit from these services on its own, are not considered distinct and therefore are grouped with 
other items in the contract, being the hire of equipment. 
Equipment and machinery rental periods are typically short-term and is recognised at fixed rates over the period of hire. 
Customers are in general invoiced on a monthly basis and payment is received following invoice on normal commercial 
terms.  

Electrical service revenue 
The consolidated entity performs electrical services specialising in underground and overhead power line construction and 
High Voltage and Low Voltage cable jointing for supply authorities and mining professionals. Contracts may include multiple 
processes required to be performed for each milestone set in the project. Milestones may be performed by the Group or by 
other contractors employed by the customer and as such are accounted for as separate obligations. The transaction price is 
allocated to each performance obligation based on the stand-alone selling price. The total transaction price may include a 
variable pricing element which is accounted for in accordance with the policy on variable consideration. 
Performance obligations are fulfilled over time with revenue recognised in the accounting period in which the electrical 
services are rendered based on the amount of the expected transaction price allocated to each performance obligation as 
the customer continues to control the asset as it is enhanced. 
Customers are typically invoiced on a monthly basis for an amount that is calculated on a schedule of rates that is aligned 
with the stand alone selling prices for each performance obligation. Payment is received following invoice on normal 
commercial terms. 

Service revenue: repairs 
The consolidated entity performs repairs to machinery in the underground mining, tunnelling, civil construction and 
rail industries. Contracts include a schedule of rates that is aligned with the stand alone selling prices of the service 
provided. The performance obligation is fulfilled over time and as such revenue is recognised over time because the 
customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the entity’s performance. Revenue is recognised 
on the measured output with reference to the services performed to date. 
Customers are typically invoiced on a monthly basis for an amount that is calculated on a schedule of rates that is aligned 
with the stand alone selling prices for each performance obligation. Payment is received following invoice on normal 
commercial terms.

Note 5. Revenue (continued)

Sales of goods – plant, equipment, parts, road-base and aggregates 
The consolidated entity sells plant, equipment, parts, road-base and aggregates. Sale of these goods usually contains only 
one performance obligation, with revenue recognised at the point in time when the material is transferred to the customer. 
The revenue is measured at the transaction price agreed under the contract. In most cases, the consideration is due when 
the goods have been transferred to the customer.  

Land development and resale 
The consolidated entity develops and sells residential properties in NSW. Property revenue is recognised when control 
over the property has been transferred to the customer. This is generally at the point when legal title has transferred to the 
customer as properties are not developed based on the specific needs of individual customers. The revenue is measured at 
the transaction price agreed under the contract. 

Geotechnical services 
The consolidated entity provides a range of Geotechnical consulting services to its clients including onsite earthworks 
testing, lab materials testing, geotechnical investigations & drilling, and concrete testing. Individual contracts are typically 
short-term in nature and relate to a discrete project or asset. Revenue is recognised in the accounting period in which the 
services are rendered, at a point-in-time when the results are provided to the client (the performance obligation). Payment 
is generally due within 30 days from completion of the services. Consulting services are generally short-term in nature with 
most contracts completed within 30 days. 

Manufacturing sales 
The consolidated entity recognises a contract asset over the period in which the performance obligation is fulfilled and 
recognises contract liabilities arise where payments are received prior to work being performed. Revenue is recognised at 
the point in time when the manufactured machine is transferred to the customer. Manufacturing sales are included in Sale 
of goods - plant, equipment, parts, road-base and aggregates revenue stream. 

Variable consideration  
It is common for contracts to include performance bonuses or penalties assessed against the timeliness or cost effectiveness 
of work completed or other performance related KPIs. Where consideration in respect of a contract is variable, the expected 
value of revenue is only recognised when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently 
resolved, known as “constraint” requirements. The consolidated entity assesses the constraint requirements on a periodic 
basis when estimating the variable consideration to be included in the transaction price. The estimate is based on all 
available information including historic performance. Where modifications in design or contract requirements are entered 
into, the transaction price is updated to reflect these. Where the price of the modification has not been confirmed, an 
estimate is made of the amount of revenue to recognise whilst also considering the constraint requirement.  

Contract assets and liabilities  
AASB 15 uses the terms ‘contract asset’ and ‘contract liability’ to describe what is commonly known as ‘accrued revenue’ and 
‘deferred revenue’. Contract assets are balances due from customers under contracts as work is performed and therefore a 
contract asset is recognised over the period in which the performance obligation is fulfilled. This represents the entity’s right 
to consideration for the services transferred to date. Amounts are generally reclassified to receivables when these have been 
certified or invoiced to a customer. Contract liabilities arise where payment is received prior to work being performed. 

Financing components  
The consolidated entity does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods 
or services to the customer represents a financing component. As a consequence, the consolidated entity does not adjust 
any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.  

Warranties and defect periods  
Generally construction and services contracts include defect and warranty periods following completion of the project. 
These obligations are not deemed to be separate performance obligations and therefore estimated and included in the total 
costs of the contracts. Where required, amounts are recognised accordingly in line with AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent 
Liabilities and Contingent Assets.  

Loss making contracts  
A provision is made for the difference between the expected cost of fulfilling a contract and the expected unearned portion 
of the transaction price where the forecast costs are greater than the forecast revenue. 

Dividends and interest 
Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established, and interest revenue is 
recognised using the effective interest method. 

Rent 
Rent revenue from investment properties is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives granted 
are recognised as part of the rental revenue. Contingent rentals are recognised as income in the period when earned. 

Management fees 
The consolidated entity manages and sells land held by MAAS Group Family Property entities (outside of the consolidated 
group) on their behalf and in return the consolidated entity receives a management fee. Management fees are fixed and 
based on a per lot sold basis and are recognised when a lot of land is sold. The arrangement concluded during the 2021 
financial year.

Accounting policy for income tax 
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable 
income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary 
differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the 
assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for: 
•   when the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a 

transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor 
taxable profits; or 

•   when the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the 

timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable 
future. 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 
The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax 
assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the 
carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable 
that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against 
current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on 
either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. 
MAAS Group Holdings Limited (the 'head entity') and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income 
tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The head entity and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated 
group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has applied the 
'separate taxpayer within group' approach in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax 
consolidated group. 
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) 
and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax 
consolidated group. 
The company, in conjunction with other members of the tax-consolidated group, has entered into a tax funding 
arrangement which sets out the funding obligations of members of the tax-consolidated group in respect of tax amounts. 
The tax funding arrangements require payments to/from the head entity equal to the current tax liability (asset) assumed 
by the head entity and any tax-loss deferred tax asset assumed by the head entity, resulting in the company recognising an 
inter-entity payable (receivable) equal in amount to the tax liability (asset) assumed. The inter-entity payable (receivable) is at 
call. Contributions to fund the current tax liabilities are payable as per the tax funding arrangement and reflect the timing of 
the head entity’s obligation to make payments for tax liabilities to the relevant tax authorities. 
The company, in conjunction with other members of the tax-consolidated group, has also entered into a tax sharing 
agreement. The tax sharing agreement provides for the determination of the allocation of income tax liabilities between the 
entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations. No amounts have been recognised in the financial 
statements in respect of this agreement as payment of any amounts under the tax sharing agreement is considered remote. 

Accounting policy for cash and cash equivalents 
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash 
and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

*Allowance for expected credit losses provision raised during the year exhausted upon write off of bad debts. 

Accounting policy for trade and other receivables 
Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary 
course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as 
current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.  
Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant 
financing components, when they are recognised at fair value. The consolidated entity holds the trade receivables with 
the objective to collect the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the 
effective interest method. 

(a) Fair values of trade and other receivables 
Due to the short term nature of the current receivables, the carrying amount is considered to be the same as their fair value. 

(b) Other receivables at amortised cost 
These amounts generally arise from transactions outside the usual operating activities of the consolidated entity. Interest is 
charged at commercial rates where the repayment exceeds 12 months. Collateral is not normally obtained. The non-current 
receivables are due and payable within 2 years from the end of the reporting period. 

(c) Impairment and risk exposure 
Note 29 sets out information of financial assets and exposure to credit risk. 
Refer note 29 for the consolidated entity’s exposure to foreign currency risk.

The increase in contract assets of $18.166m was driven by both the Civil, Construction and Hire, and Real Estate Segments. 
In the Civil, Construction and Hire segment, increased activity in later months of the year along with the timing of invoices 
issued resulted in the higher contract asset movement. In the Real Estate segment, acquisition of commercial and 
residential builders such as David Payne Constructions, Maas Brothers and Brett Harvey Designs led to an increased number 
and value of projects under construction when compared to 2021. 

Accounting policy for contract assets 
Contract assets are recognised when the consolidated entity has transferred goods or services to the customer but where 
the consolidated entity is yet to establish an unconditional right to consideration. Contract assets are treated as financial 
assets for impairment purposes.

Accounting policy for inventories 
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value and comprise of the following: 

- Land held for development and resale  

Cost includes the costs of acquisition, development and holding costs such as rates, taxes and finance costs. Holding costs 
on property developments not under active development are expensed as incurred. Land held for development and resale 
not expected to be realised within the next 12 months has been classified as non-current. 

- Raw materials, finished goods and parts 

Raw materials, finished goods and parts are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct 
materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure. Costs of purchased 
inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts received or receivable. 
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion 
and selling expenses.

financial year. 

(ii)    A commercial property with a fair value of $1.280m, situated in Emerald QLD. This property was transferred to 

investment property in the 2022 financial year. 

The assets are presented within total assets of the Real Estate segment in note 4. 

Accounting policy for non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale 
Non-current assets and assets of disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered 
principally through a sale transaction rather than through continued use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying 
amount and fair value less costs of disposal. Investments properties held for sale are measured at fair value. For non-current 
assets or assets of disposal groups to be classified as held for sale, they must be available for immediate sale in their present 
condition and their sale must be highly probable. 
An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write down of the non-current assets and assets of disposal 
groups to fair value less costs of disposal. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs of 
disposal of a non-current assets and assets of disposal groups, but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss 
previously recognised. 
Non-current assets are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses 
attributable to the liabilities of assets held for sale continue to be recognised. 
Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of disposal groups classified as held for sale are presented 
separately on the face of the statement of financial position, in current assets. The liabilities of disposal groups classified as 
held for sale are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position, in current liabilities.

Interests in associates 
In May 2021, the company acquired a 45.7% interest in the 1990 Elizabeth Property Unit Trust (“1990 Trust”) which holds a 
development site in the Western Sydney Airport precinct at Badgery’s Creek. The company is guaranteed two seats on 
the board of the trustee of the 1990 Trust and participates in significant and financial operating decisions. Although the 
company does not have control of the Trust, it does have significant influence. 
Interests in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Information relating to associates that are

Accounting policy for associates 
Associates are entities over which the consolidated entity has significant influence but not control or joint control. 
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the share of the profits 
or losses of the associate is recognised in profit or loss and the share of the movements in equity is recognised in other 
comprehensive income. Investments in associates are carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post-
acquisition changes in the consolidated entity's share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to the associate 
is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. 
Dividends received or receivable from associates reduce the carrying amount of the investment. 
When the consolidated entity's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any 
unsecured long-term receivables, the consolidated entity does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations 
or made payments on behalf of the associate. 
The consolidated entity discontinues the use of the equity method upon the loss of significant influence over the associate 
and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the associate's carrying amount, fair value 
of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.

Significant estimate - Valuations of investment properties 
Refer to note 30 for further information on fair value measurement. 

Leasing arrangements 
The investment properties are leased to tenants under operating leases with rentals payable monthly. Lease payments 
for some contracts include CPI increases, but there are no other variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate. 
Where considered necessary to reduce credit risk, the consolidated entity may obtain bank guarantees for the term of the 
lease. 
Although the consolidated entity is exposed to changes in the residual value at the end of the current leases, the 
consolidated entity typically enters into new operating leases and therefore will not immediately realise any reduction in 
residual value at the end of these leases. Expectations about the future residual values are reflected in the fair value of the 
properties. 
Minimum lease payments receivable on leases of investment properties are as follows:

Within 1 year 

Between 1 and 2 years 

Between 2 and 3 years 

Between 3 and 4 years 

Between 4 and 5 years

Note 16. Investment properties (continued)

Accounting policy for investment properties 
Investment properties principally comprise of freehold land and buildings held for long-term rental and capital appreciation 
that are not occupied by the consolidated entity. Investment properties are initially recognised at cost, including transaction 
costs, and are subsequently remeasured annually at fair value. Movements in fair value are recognised directly to profit or 
loss. 
Investment properties are derecognised when disposed of or when there is no future economic benefit expected. 
Transfers to and from investment properties to inventories are determined by a change in use evidenced by internal and 
external factors. During the period, the group transferred parcels of RAAF Base Dubbo to inventory following lot registration 
and sub-division as well as Build-to-Rent land to investment property following the emergence of Build-to-Rent Investment 
Trusts and lease agreements. The fair value on the date of change of use from investment properties to inventories and vice-
versa is deemed the cost for the subsequent accounting. 
Investment properties also include properties under construction for future use as investment properties. These are carried 
at fair value, or at cost where fair value cannot be reliably determined and the construction is incomplete.

Accounting policy for property, plant and equipment 
All property, plant and equipment except for land and assets under construction, are measured on the cost basis and 
therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment. In the event the carrying 
amount of property, plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is 
written down immediately to the estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses are recognised through profit or 
loss. A formal assessment of recoverable amount is made when impairment indicators are present. 
The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the 
recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that 
will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted 
to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. 
The cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated entity includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing 
costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. 
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when 
it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the consolidated entity and the cost of the 
item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised as expenses in profit or loss during the 
financial period in which they are incurred. 
Depreciation: 
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including land improvements & buildings, but excluding freehold land, is 
depreciated on either the diminishing value method or units of production method over the asset’s useful life to the 
consolidated entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Estimated useful lives for each class of 
depreciable asset are as follows: 

Buildings  
Leasehold improvements  
Hire equipment and machinery   3-10 years 
3-10 years 
Plant and equipment  
4-8 years 
Motor vehicles  

2-10 years 
20-25 years 

Quarry land is amortised based on the rate of depletion of reserves as compared to the estimate of the total economically 
recoverable reserves over the life of the quarry. 
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. 
Buildings, plant and equipment, and motor vehicles under lease are depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease 
or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter. If the consolidated entity is reasonably certain to exercise a 
purchase option, the right of use asset is depreciated over the underlying assets useful life. 
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater 
than its estimated recoverable amount. 
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are 
recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.  

Accounting policy for right-of-use assets 
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which 
comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the 
commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in 
the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, 
and restoring the site or asset. 
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful 
life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at 
the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or 
adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.  
The consolidated entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term 
leases with terms of 12 months or less (without extension option) and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these 
assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.

Impairment testing for goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives: 
The calculations use cash flow projections based on cash flow forecasts covering a five-year period. The cash flows are based 
on past results adjusted for current market conditions and known contracts. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are 
extrapolated using the estimated growth rates stated below. These growth rates are consistent with forecasts included in 
industry reports specific to the industry in which each CGU operates

86 | Financial Report | 30 June 2022

The Construction Materials and Manufacturing CGUs remain unchanged from the comparative period and represent their 
respective operating segments. Given the consolidated entity is structured in a vertically integrated manner, much of the 
consolidated entity's assets are used to generate cashflows that are not independent from other assets of the consolidated 
entity. During the period, the vertically integrated nature of cash flows has driven a realignment and renaming of CGUs 
within existing operating segments. The Civil & Plant Hire CGU represents the Plant Hire & Machinery Sales CGUs noted in 
the comparative period as well as acquisitions during the financial year, this CGU operates within the Civil, Construction and 
Hire operating Segment. The Homes Construction CGU represents the MAAS Homes CGU noted in the comparative period 
as acquisitions during the financial year, this CGU operates within the Real Estate Segment. The Electrical CGU represents 
the Large Industries CGU noted in the comparative period as acquisitions during the financial year, this CGU operates within 
the Civil, Construction and Hire operating Segment. As a result of acquisitions and new operating activities during the 
period, three new CGUs existed in the Real Estate operating segment. These are Commercial Constructions, Commercial 
Developments and Building Supplies.

(a)   The annual sales growth rate is based on past performance and management's expectations of market development. 
(b)    This is the weighted average growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the budget period. The rates are 

(c)  

consistent with forecasts included in industry reports. 
 Reflects specific risks relating to the relevant segments and the countries in which they operate. In performing the 
value-in-use calculations for each CGU, the consolidated entity has applied post-tax discount rates to discount the 
forecast future attributable post-tax cash flows. The equivalent pre-tax rates are disclosed in the table. 

(d)    Fixed costs of the CGU, which do not vary significantly with sales volumes or prices. Management forecasts these 

costs based on the current structure of the business, adjusting for inflationary increases but not reflecting any future 
restructurings or cost saving measures. The amounts disclosed are the average operating costs for the five-year forecast 
period. 

(e)    Expected capital cash costs based on the historical experience of management, and the planned refurbishment 

expenditure. No incremental revenue or cost savings are assumed in the value-in-use model as a result of this 
expenditure. 

Whilst there has been no material adverse impact on the financial performance of the consolidated entity from COVID-19, 
there is a risk that any future economic downturn could impact the consolidated entity’s products and services offered, 
customers, supply chain, staffing and geographical regions in which the group operates. Accordingly judgement has been 
exercised in considering the impacts COVID-19 has had, or may have on the assets of the consolidated entity, in particular 
the inputs included in the value-in-use calculations supporting recoverability of goodwill and non-current assets. 

Sensitivity 
Management have made judgements and estimates in respect of impairment testing. Should judgements and estimates 
not occur, the carrying value of goodwill may vary. Any reasonable change in the key assumptions on which the estimates 
and/or discount rate are based would not cause the carrying amount of the CGU to exceed the recoverable amount.   

Accounting policy for intangible assets 
Intangible assets that are acquired are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and 
are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost 
less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of 
intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible 
asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of 
consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period. 

Brand names 
Brand names acquired in a business combination that qualify for separate recognition are recognised as intangible assets at 
their fair values. Brand names are not amortised on the basis that they have an indefinite life and are reviewed annually.  

Customer contracts/relationships 
Customer contracts acquired in a business combination are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their 
expected benefit, being their finite life of 3 years. 

Extraction rights 
Extraction rights are amortised over the life of the lease hold in order to reflect the decline in value over their expected 
period of benefit. 

Goodwill 
Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested annually for 
impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at 
cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently 
reversed. Goodwill acquired is allocated to each of the Cash Generating Units (“CGU”) expected to benefit from the 
combination’s synergies. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the goodwill 
relates. The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculations which require the use of 
assumptions.

Accounting policy for trade and other payables 
Trade payables are amounts due to suppliers for goods purchased or services provided in the ordinary course of 
business. Trade payables are generally due for settlement within 30 days and therefore are all classified as current. 
Other payables and accrued expenses generally arise from normal transactions within the usual operating activities of the 
consolidated entity and comprise items such as employee taxes, employee on costs, GST and other recurring items. 
A liability is recorded for goods and services received prior to balance date, whether invoiced to the consolidated entity or 
not. Trade payables are normally settled within 30 days. 
The carrying amounts of trade and other payables are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to their short term 
nature.

Under the terms of contract the consolidated entity is sometimes required to provide performance guarantees (refer note 31). 
The increase in contract liabilities was driven by a large number of deposits received for machines prior to the end of the 
financial year in the Manufacturing segment ($3.354m) along with the acquisition of commercial and residential builders 
such as David Payne Constructions, Maas Brothers and Brett Harvey Designs increasing the number and value of Real Estate 
projects under construction ($8.198m). 

Unsatisfied performance obligations 
The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied at the end 
of the reporting period was $17.250m as at 30 June 2022 ($7.038m as at 30 June 2021) and is expected to be recognised as 
revenue in future periods as follows:

Accounting policy for contract liabilities 
Contract liabilities represent the consolidated entity’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer and are recognised 
when a customer pays consideration, or when the consolidated entity recognises a receivable to reflect its unconditional right 
to consideration (whichever is earlier) before the consolidated entity has transferred the goods or services to the customer.

(a) Bank loans and multi-option facility 
In September 2021, the company received approval for the increase of its banking facility limits from $160.000m to 
$200.000m with a $15.000m increase to the term loan, a $20.000m increase in the equipment finance facility and a $5.000m 
increase in the multi-option cash advance and bank guarantee facility. In addition, the company received approval from its 
banking consortium to secure up to an additional $100.000m for future project finance funding. Commercial developments 
will be funded separately by project financiers under standalone project specific finance facilities with separate covenants 
and undertakings. 
In December 2021, the company received approval for an additional increase of its banking facility limits from $200.000m 
to $300.000m with a $80.000m increase to the term loan, a $10.000m increase to the equipment finance facility and a 
$10.000m increase to the multi-option cash advance and bank guarantee facility. 
In April 2022, the company received approval for the increase of its banking facility limits from $300.000m to $500.000m, 
consisting of a $140.000m increase to the term loan, a $40.000m increase to the hire purchase facility and a $20.000m 
increase to the multi-option cash advance and bank guarantee facility. The increased facility will provide additional liquidity 
to the company under a common terms deed arrangement. $150.000m of the $500.000m facility relates to a hire purchase 
facility (refer note 21) whilst the balance of the facilities comprised a term loan, and a multi-option cash advance and bank 
guarantee facility. The multi-option facility is an interchangeable bank facility which allows the company to change between 
cash advances and contract performance guarantees. The balance of the contract performance guarantees as at 30 June 
2022 amounted to $30.297m (refer note 31). The term loan has a 3-year term and is non-amortising. The multi-option facility 
also has a 3-year term with an annual requirement to fully repay the cash advance component for a period of 7 consecutive 
days. The repaid amount is then able to be redrawn after the 7-day period. The 7-day repayment represents the Groups 
current borrowing requirement under the multi-option facility at 30 June 2022. The facilities are secured by a combination 
of General Security Agreements and mortgages over Australian group assets and property interests. Interest on the bank 
loans is calculated using the Bank Bill Swap (BBSY) Bid rate plus a relevant margin. Total transaction costs were $1.937m and 
unamortised transaction costs of $0.985m have been offset against the bank loans at 30 June 2022. 
The project loan is secured by a first registered mortgage over the property and a general security interest over MAAS Group 
Properties RBD Unit Trust. The loan has a term of 3 years and is repayable in full on the expiry of the term. In addition, the 
facility is guaranteed by MGH.

Note 21. Borrowings and lease liabilities (continued) 

Land and buildings: 
The consolidated entity has leases for warehouses and offices. Rental contracts are typically made for a fixed period of 3 - 5 
years with options to extend. With the exception of short-term leases and leases of low value underlying assets, each lease 
is reflected on the statement of financial position. The consolidated entity classifies its right-of-use assets in a consistent 
manner to its property, plant and equipment. Most extension options have been included in the lease liability. 

Refer to note 17 for right-of-use assets disclosures relating to the land and buildings. 

Fair value 
The fair values of borrowings are not materially different from their carrying amounts, since the interest payable on 
borrowings is either close to current market rates or the borrowings are of a short term nature. 

Compliance with loan covenants 
The consolidated entity has complied with the financial covenants of its borrowing facilities during the 2022 and 2021 
reporting period, see note 24 for details.

* The used bank loan facility excludes borrowing costs capitalised. 
** The used multi-option facility includes performance guarantees of $30.297m (2021: $12.788m) - refer note 31. 

Accounting policy for borrowings 
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured 
at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the 
period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Borrowing costs on the establishment of loan facilities are 
recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. 
In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs.  

Borrowings are removed from the consolidated statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the 
contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has 
been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or 
liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. 
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the consolidated entity has an unconditional right to defer settlement 
of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. 

Accounting policy for lease liabilities 
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present 
value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, 
if that rate cannot be readily determined, the consolidated entity’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of 
fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that 
depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase 
option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable 
lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.  
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured 
if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual 
guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an 
adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use 
asset is fully written down.

Accounting policy for employee benefits 

Short-term employee benefits 
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled wholly within 12 
months after the end of the reporting period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect 
of employees' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when 
the liabilities are settled. The liability for annual leave is presented as provision for employee benefits. All other short-term 
employee benefit obligations are presented as payables. 

Other long-term employee benefits 
The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are 
measured at the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to 
the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, 
experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at 
the reporting date on high quality corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, 
the estimated future cash outflows. 

Defined contribution superannuation expense 
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Note 22. Employee benefits (continued)

Other long-term employee benefits 
The liabilities for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the 
end of the reporting period in which the employees render the related service is recognised in the provision for employee 
benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided 
by employees up to the end of the reporting period. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, 
experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields 
at the end of the reporting period on corporate bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the 
estimated future cash outflows. 
The consolidated entity's obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as non-current provision for 
employee benefits the consolidated statement of financial position, except where the consolidated entity does not have 
an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period, in which case the 
obligations are presented as a current provision for employee benefits.

Note 23. Provisions (continued)

Accounting policy for provisions 
Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past 
event, it is probable the consolidated entity will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made 
of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required 
to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the 
obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate specific to the 
liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. 

Refer to note 37 for accounting policy on contingent consideration.

shares not taken up upon the same terms (SPP Shortfall Shares). In addition to the irrevocable commitments to subscribe 
for any SPP Shortfall Shares received, the company agreed, to the extent there is insufficient SPP Shortfall Shares available

Capital risk management 
The consolidated entity’s objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that 
it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to 
reduce the cost of capital. 
Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated 
as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. 
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the consolidated entity may adjust the amount of dividends paid to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 
The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as 
value adding relative to the current company’s share price at the time of the investment. 
The consolidated entity is subject to certain financing arrangements covenants and meeting these is given priority in 
all capital risk management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements during 
the financial year. The consolidated entity monitors capital to ensure it maintains compliance with its various financial 
covenants. Refer (i) below for a summary of existing financial covenants for the Australian senior debt facilities. 

(i) Loan covenants 
Under the terms of the major borrowing facilities, the consolidated entity is required to comply with the following financial 
covenants: 
(a)   A leverage ratio at each reporting date that will be less than or equal to 3.5 times. 
(b)   A debt service coverage ratio of more than or equal to 1.5 times. 

The consolidated entity has complied with these covenants throughout the reporting period from the date of 
commencement of the new financing facilities. 

Accounting policy for issued capital 
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. 
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, 
from the proceeds.

See note 24 for more information on MGH’s issued capital. 

Dividends not recognised at the end of the reporting period 
In addition to the above dividends, since year end the Directors have recommended the payment of a final dividend of 3.5

Note 29. Financial instruments 

Financial risk management objectives 
The consolidated entity’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk, price 
risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity’s overall risk management program focuses 
on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance 
of the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it 
is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and other price risks, 
ageing analysis for credit risk. 
The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the consolidated entity’s risk management objectives and 
policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for day to day management of 
these risks to the Chief Finance Officer. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as 
possible without unduly affecting the Group’s competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set 
out below:

Note 29. Financial instruments 

Market risk 
Market risk arises from the use of interest bearing, tradeable and foreign currency financial instruments. It is the risk that the 
fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), 
foreign exchange rates (currency risk) or other market factors (other price risk). 

Foreign currency risk 
The consolidated entity undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currency and is exposed to foreign currency 
risk through foreign exchange rate fluctuations. 
Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised financial assets and financial liabilities 
denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and 
cash flow forecasting. 
The carrying amount of the consolidated entity's foreign currency denominated financial assets and financial liabilities at 
the reporting date, shown in Australian Dollars, were as follows:

An analysis by remaining contractual maturities is shown in 'liquidity' below. 
The percentage change is based on the expected volatility of interest rates using market data and analysts forecasts.   

Credit risk 
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the 
consolidated entity. The consolidated entity has a strict code of credit, including obtaining agency credit information, 
confirming references and setting appropriate credit limits. The consolidated entity obtains guarantees where appropriate 
to mitigate credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets is the 
carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and 
notes to the financial statements. The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral. 
The consolidated entity assess on a forward-looking basis in estimating expected credit losses to trade receivables and 
contract assets. The simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses has been applied. To measure the risk of 
expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days past due and reviewed by management at 
the business unit level. Where any issues are highlighted that indicate that the consolidated entity may be exposed to 
expected credit losses, the issues are reported to executive management for consideration and the establishment of an 
action plan. Should expected credit losses not materialise in the future, the provision may be reversed based dependent on 
the existence of expected credit losses. The provision at year-end is considered representative across all customers of the 
consolidated entity based on recent sales experience, historical collection rates, and forward-looking information that is 
available. 
Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of this include the 
failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan, no active enforcement activity and a failure to make contractual payments 
for a period greater than 1 year. 

Liquidity risk 
The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by 
continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. 

The consolidated entity had net liabilities denominated in foreign currencies of $4.515m as at 30 June 2022 (2021: net 
liabilities of $3.013m). Based on this exposure, had the Australian dollar weakened/strengthened by 10% (2021: weakened/
strengthened by 10%) against these foreign currencies with all other variables held constant, the consolidated entity’s profit 
before tax for the year would have been $0.452m lower/higher (2021: $0.301m lower/higher) and equity would have been 
$0.452m lower/higher (2021: $0.301m lower/higher). The percentage change is the expected overall volatility of the significant 
currencies, which is based on management’s assessment of reasonable possible fluctuations taking into consideration 
movements over the last 12 months each year and the spot rate at each reporting date.  

Price risk 
The consolidated entity is not exposed to any significant price risk. 

Interest rate risk 
The consolidated entity’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings obtained at variable rates 
expose the consolidated entity to interest rate risk. Borrowings obtained at fixed rates expose the consolidated entity to fair 
value interest rate risk.

Valuation techniques for fair value measurements categorised within level 1 
The fair values of listed equity securities are based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted 
market price used for financial assets held by the consolidated entity is the bid price.  

Valuation techniques for fair value measurements categorised within level 2 and level 3 
- Investment properties 
Investment properties are revalued annually based on independent assessments by a member of the Australian Property 
Institute having recent experience in the location and category of investment property being valued. The valuers have 
considered valuation techniques including direct comparison method, capitalisation approach and/or discounted cash flow 
analysis in arriving at the fair values as at the reporting date.  
The direct comparison method involves the analysis of comparable sales of similar properties and adjusting the sale prices 
to that reflective of the investment properties. The capitalisation approach captures an income stream into a present value 
using revenue multipliers or single-year capitalisation rates. The discounted cash flow method involves the estimation and 
projection of an income stream over a period and discounting the income stream with an expected rate of return. 
All resulting fair value estimates for properties are included in level 3. Investment properties that are held for sale at the 
reporting date and which were valued at their selling price, have been included in level 2. 
- Contingent consideration 
Where there are EBITDA hurdles the fair value of the contingent cash consideration has been estimated using present value 
techniques, by discounting the probability-weighted estimated future cash outflows. The fair value of the contingent share 
consideration has been estimated based on the probability of achieving future hurdles which impacts the number of shares 
to be issued, using the share price (at acquisition date and reporting date).

Note 30. Fair value measurement (continued)

For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not 
available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge and 
reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis 
is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where 
applicable, with external sources of data.

Consideration) (refer note 39). Further cash consideration may be payable, contingent on Schwarz achieving certain EBITDA 
targets for the three financial years following completion up to $3.000m. The acquisition completed on 22 July 2022.  
On 29 July 2022, the consolidated entity entered into a binding agreement to acquire four hard rock quarries and two sand 
quarries in the Isaac Region of Central Queensland. The agreement, which is an agreement to acquire the business and 
assets, is subject to various third-party consents and customary completion conditions with the transaction expected to 
complete by the end of August 2022. The consideration for the acquisition of $12.750m, plus an amount for stock of up to 
$2.200m to be determined at completion, will be funded from existing cash reserves and debt facilities.

Accounting policy for fair value measurement 
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair 
value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between 
market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; 
or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. 
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming 
they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best 
use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair 
value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. 
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the 
significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed at each reporting date and transfers 
between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value 
measurement.

• 
• 

 differences in the accounting policies between the consolidated entity and the subsidiary, and 
 the additional depreciation and amortisation that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to 
property, plant and equipment and intangible assets had applied from 1 July 2021, together with the consequential tax 
effects. 

The acquired businesses contributed the following revenues and net profit to the consolidated entity from the dates of their

Acquisition-related costs 
Acquisition-related costs totalling $3.122m that were not directly attributable to the issue of shares are disclosed separately in 
the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as Transaction costs relating to business combinations. 

Accounting policy for business combinations 
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations, unless it is a combination involving 
entities or businesses under common control, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. 
The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments 
issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest 
in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value 
or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred to profit 
or loss. 
On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for 
appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated 
entity's operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date. 
Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the consolidated entity remeasures its previously held equity interest 
in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount 
is recognised in profit or loss. 
Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent 
changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. 
Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within 
equity. 
The difference between the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling 
interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment 
in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair 
value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a 
gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and 
measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred 
and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer. 
Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional 
amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new 
information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends 
on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information 
possible to determine fair value.

amount of the existing 25% non-controlling interest in VMS was $2.624m. The group recognised a decrease in non-

Note 39. Events after the reporting period 

(a) Share Placement  
On 29 July 2022, the company announced its intention to undertake a capital raising of $105.000m via a Placement, 
comprising an Institutional Placement of $35.000m and a Founder and Management Placement of $70.000m via two 
separate tranches. Proceeds of the capital raising will be used to fund growth and acquisition initiatives, including near-
term opportunities in the Construction Materials segment. Directors of MGH (or entities associated with them) and other 
Founding Shareholders and executives of MGH have committed approximately $70.000m in the Founder and Management 
Placement (subject to shareholder approval for related parties). 
On 3 August 2022, MGH issued 8,750,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the company to institutional and professional investors 
under the Institutional Placement announced on 29 July 2022. The company also issued 1,287,500 fully paid ordinary shares 
in the company under Tranche 1 of the Founder and Management Placement announced on 29 July 2022. The second 
tranche is due to close post the meeting of shareholders to consider the proposed placement to directors of MGH, which if 
approved, is expected to occur in October 2022. 

(b) Share purchase plan (SPP) 
On 19 July 2022 MGH issued 636,364 fully paid shares in the company at an issue price of $5.50. These were the remaining 
shares to be issued to investors pursuant to outstanding commitments to subscribe for the Share Purchase Plan Shortfall 
previously announced and approved at the 2021 Annual General Meeting of 9 November 2021. 
On 29 July 2022, as part of the capital raising announcement on 29 July 2022 outlined in (a) above, MGH also offered a Share 
Purchase Plan to eligible Australian and New Zealand shareholders to raise up to $10.000m. The results of the SPP are due to 
be announced on 19 August 2022. 

(c) Dividend 
The Directors declared a fully franked final dividend of 3.5 cents per share on 18 August 2022, which reflects a full year 
dividend of 5.5 cents per share, an increase of 10% from the prior year. 

(d) Acquisition 
Schwarz 
On 1 July 2022, the consolidated entity entered into an agreement to acquire Schwarz Excavations Pty Ltd (Schwarz) for an 
initial cash payment of $34.858m and the issue of 913,194 shares in MGH for a total consideration of $38.620m (Acquisition 
Consideration). Further cash consideration may be payable, contingent on Schwarz achieving certain EBITDA targets for the 
three financial years following completion up to $3.000m. The acquisition completed on 22 July 2022. The financial effects 
of this transaction have not been recognised at 30 June 2022. The operating results and assets and liabilities of the acquired 
business will be consolidated from completion. The Schwarz business operations will be reported in the Civil, Construction & 
Hire segment. 

The provisionally determined fair values of the assets and liabilities of acquisitions completed as at the date of this report are 
as follows:

Accounting policy for earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of MAAS Group Holdings Limited, 
excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares 
outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. 

Diluted earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account 
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the 
weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential 
ordinary shares.

Accounting policy for share-based payments 
Equity-settled and cash-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. 
Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the 
rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of cash is 
determined by reference to the share price.

Directors’ declaration
30 June 2022

Note 42. Share-based payments (continued)
The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined 
using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of 
the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the 
expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that 
do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No 
account is taken of any other vesting conditions. 
The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the 
vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the 
best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount 
recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already 
recognised in previous periods. 
The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the 
Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award was 
granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: 
• 

 during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the 
expired portion of the vesting period. 
 from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the 
reporting date. 

• 

All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to 
settle the liability. 
Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore any awards subject to market conditions 
are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are 
satisfied. 
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An 
additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of 
the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. 
If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is 
treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied 
during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the 
award is forfeited. 
If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense 
is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award 
is treated as if they were a modification.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT 

To the members of Maas Group Holdings Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 
Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Maas Group Holdings Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), 
which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2022 the consolidated statement of profit 
or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated 
statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial report, 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:  

(i)

Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2022 and of its financial performance
for the year ended on that date; and

(ii)

Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.  Our responsibilities under those standards are 
further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report section of our report.  We are 
independent of the Group in accordance with the 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) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia.  We have also fulfilled our other 
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the 
directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report. 

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

Key audit matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the 
financial report of the current period.  These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report 
as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.  

BDO Audit Pty Ltd ABN 33 134 022 870 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 
110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee. BDO Audit Pty Ltd and BDO Australia Ltd are members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited 
by guarantee, and form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional 
Standards Legislation. 

Revenue recognition 

Key audit matter  

The assessment of revenue recognition was 
significant to our audit because revenue is a 
material balance in the financial statements for the 
year ended 30 June 2022 and the Group derives 
revenue from a significant number of streams. 

The assessment of revenue recognition and 
measurement required significant auditor effort. 

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

•

•

•

•

Assessing the revenue recognition policy for
compliance with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts 
with Customers 

Documenting the processes and assessing the internal
controls relating to revenue processing and 
recognition 

Tracing a sample of revenue transactions to supporting
documentation 

Assessing the adequacy of the Group's disclosures
within the financial statements. 

Valuation and disclosures of non-financial assets including goodwill, PPE and indefinite life intangibles 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

The Group’s disclosures in respect to intangible 
assets, including the impairment assessments of 
goodwill and other intangible assets are included in 
Note 18. 

The carrying value of intangible assets represent a 
significant asset of the Group. 

The Group is required to annually test the amount 
of goodwill and indefinite useful life intangible 
assets for impairment and assess other intangible 
assets for impairment indicators. This annual 
impairment test was significant to our audit because 
the goodwill and intangible assets balance is 
material to the financial statements and because 
management’s assessment process is complex, 
highly judgmental and includes estimates and 
assumptions relating to expected future market or 
economic conditions. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

•

•

•

•

•

•

Evaluating management’s determination of the
Group’s Cash Generating Units ("CGU's") to ensure they 
are appropriate, including being at a level no higher 
than the operating segments of the entity 

Evaluating management’s process regarding the
valuation of the Group’s goodwill and other intangible 
assets 

Assessing the Group’s assumptions and estimates
relating to forecast revenue, costs, capital 
expenditure, discount rates and growth rates 

Involving our internal specialists to assess the discount
rates against comparable market information 

Assessing the disclosures related to the impairment
assessment by comparing these disclosures to our 
understanding of the matter and the applicable 
accounting standards 

Challenging key assumptions by performing sensitivity
analysis on the growth rates and discount rate 
assumptions used.

Business combinations and contingent consideration 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

The Group’s disclosures in respect to business 
combinations are included in note 37 and contingent 
consideration is within note 23. 

The audit of the accounting for the business 
combinations is a key audit matter due to the 
significant judgment and complexity involved in 
assessing the determination of the fair value of 
identifiable intangible assets and the consideration 
paid/payable. 

Contingent consideration was present in some 
business combinations during the period, which 
required fair valuing at initial recognition and 
reporting date. 

The assessment of business combinations and 
contingent consideration required significant 
auditor effort. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

Obtaining an understanding of the transactions including
an assessment of the accounting acquirer and whether 
the transaction constituted a business or an asset 
acquisition  

Comparing the assets and liabilities recognised on
acquisition against the historical financial information 

Evaluating management’s assessment of the fair value
of the consideration paid/payable 

Evaluating management’s assessment of the identifiable
assets and liabilities acquired 

Engaging with internal experts on the appropriateness
of the calculation of identifiable intangible assets 

Assessing the adequacy of the Group's disclosures of the
acquisitions 

Evaluating management’s assessment of each of the
contingent amounts booked at acquisition date and 
reporting date, including the accounting for contingent 
consideration in the form of shares or cash 

Reviewing and challenging management’s assumptions
in respect of the probability of occurrence linked to 
financial hurdles and non-financial hurdles, at initial 
recognition and reporting date. 

Investment Properties 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

•

•

•

Assessing the professional competence and objectivity
of the valuer and evaluate the appropriateness of the 
methods and assumptions used 

Reviewing management’s classification of assets to
ensure classification in the financial statements is in 
accordance with AASB 140 

Critically assessing the disclosures in relation to the
determination of the fair value of the investment 
properties by comparing these disclosures to the 
external valuations obtained and our understanding of 
the applicable accounting standards. 

Other information 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information contained in 
the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2022, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report 
thereon, which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, and the annual report, which is expected to be 
made available to us after that date. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance 
conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above 
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 that we 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. 

When we read the annual report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to 
communicate the matter to the directors and will request that it is corrected. If it is not corrected, we will seek to have 
the matter appropriately brought to the attention of users for whom our report is prepared.  

The balance of investment properties is material 
and determining the fair value involves significant 
judgements. 

Significant auditor effort and focus was required on 
this balance resulting in this being a key audit 
matter for our audit.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report 

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

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance 
Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
