 MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017MACA IS A SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATED SERVICES 
CONTRACTOR WITH OPERATIONS SPANNING 
AUSTRALIA AND BRAZIL. WITH A TEAM OF OVER 
1,540 HIGHLY SKILLED AND DEDICATED PEOPLE 
WE PROVIDE TAILORED SOLUTIONS TO SUIT THE 
NEEDS OF OUR CLIENTS.

WE SPECIALISE IN:

MINING 
CIVIL CONSTRUCTION 
INFRASTRUCTURE, AND 
MINERAL PROCESSING EQUIPMENT

Mining – providing open pit contracting services 
including drilling and blasting, and loading and hauling 
across a range of commodities in Australia and Brazil.

Civil Construction and Infrastructure – through our 
dedicated civil construction and asset maintenance 
businesses, we provide a broad range of civil 
infrastructure and maintenance services to government 
and private organisations across Australia.

Mineral Processing Equipment – delivering small to 
large scale structural, mechanical and piping (SMP) 
projects, new and refurbished plant & equipment and 
consumables to the Mineral Processing sector of the 
resources industry.

Incorporated as a private company in November 
2002, MACA was admitted to the Australian Securities 
Exchange (‘ASX’) in November 2010 following a highly 
successful initial public offering (‘IPO’). 

MACA has consistently delivered on its earnings 
forecasts and maintains continuing growth based on 
its solid financial and operational capacity. Since listing 
in November 2010, MACA has paid a total of $1.25 per 
share in dividends to shareholders.

ABOUT MACAMACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017CHAIRMAN’S 
ADDRESS

AS ANTICIPATED IN LAST YEAR’S ADDRESS, 
YOUR COMPANY ACHIEVED SOLID GROWTH IN 
2017 ON THE BACK OF AN IMPROVED, BUT STILL 
CHALLENGING, MINING AND CIVIL SECTORS. THIS 
UPWARD TREND IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE INTO 
2018 AND PROVIDE THE CATALYST FOR FURTHER 
GROWTH IN REVENUE AND EARNINGS.

I am pleased to report that MACA delivered a full  
year net profit after tax of $32.1 million. This is 33%  
up on the prior year, a solid result helped by higher  
mining activity but nonetheless in a demanding 
operating environment. 

Your Directors have declared a final dividend of 4.5 
cents per share taking the total dividends for the 
year to 9.0 cents fully franked. This represents a 65% 
dividend payout ratio which is consistent with the 
Company’s targeted guideline.

MACA’s relentless focus on business improvement 
and exceeding client expectations has been 
instrumental in both maintaining our existing 
client base and winning new work in the face of 
considerable competition. This year we have been 
awarded mining works for Ramelius Resources at the 
Mount Magnet gold project, for Northern Minerals 
Browns Range heavy rare earth minerals project and 
subsequent to year end awarded the Pligangoora 
Lithium-Tantalum project for Pilbara Minerals. This 
work will enable MACA to give continued employment 
for personnel relocating from completed projects  
and better utilization of idle assets coming off 
completed works.

The Contractor Collaboration Agreement with Atlas 
Iron and other parties on the Abydos and Wodgina 
iron ore projects has essentially come to a conclusion 
and has rewarded MACA over that period through the 
ability to earn a reasonable margin and a satisfactory 
return for the risk taken on as part of the Agreement.

The 2017 financial result has been achieved 
after making further investment in our Civil and 
Infrastructure businesses. This has included 
establishing a Structural, Mechanical and Piping 
offering in the mining sector via the acquisition of

a controlling interest in Interquip Pty Ltd, as well 
as purchasing the remaining 25% of our Services 
South East business. These businesses have not 
performed to expectations in 2017 with their results 
also impacted by integration and restructuring costs. 
Nevertheless, the Company remains committed 
to its diversification strategy to include Civil and 
Infrastructure activities, and believes it has a sound 
platform from which to generate a turnaround in 
the financial performance in 2018.  In this regard, 
the Civil division was awarded one of the largest 
civil earthworks projects tendered during the year 
within Western Australia, the Gruyere Gold project 
civil works, which commenced in May 2017 for an 
expected duration of approximately 12 months.

As previously announced, MACA is expecting revenue 
to increase to $560 million in FY2018, of which in 
excess of 70% is already contracted. The Company 
has work in hand in excess of $1.1 billion and a strong 
pipeline of opportunities. 

Winning some of these opportunities will require 
investment in additional mining fleet and working 
capital. Consequently, in September 2017 the 
Company raised a further $60 million through a 
share placement to institutional and professional 
investors. Combined with its net cash (after deducting 
interest bearing debt) of $64 million as at 30 June 
2017, MACA is strongly positioned to pursue organic 
growth opportunities and potential acquisitions in an 
improving market. 

I would like to once again especially thank our 
executive leadership team and all staff for their  
hard work, and to my fellow Directors for their  
wise counsel. 

The Board is confident that your Company is well 
placed to benefit from the expected uplift in activity 
in the sectors in which it operates and in so doing 
deliver strong returns to our shareholders. Thank you 
for your continuing support.

Andrew Edwards 
Chairman

 MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017MANAGING DIRECTOR’S 
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Dear Shareholders

On this, the 15th year since incorporation of MACA and  
our 7th since listing in 2010, I am pleased to present a 
review of the company’s performance to shareholders of 
MACA Limited.

The full year earnings result demonstrates the continued 
strength of MACA’s business, despite what has been a 
demanding operating environment for the mining and civil 
sectors. Whilst the result is pleasing, it has been impacted 
by investment of both time and resources in existing 
business divisions and integration of acquisitions. The 
Company believes this investment will greatly assist in 
providing a robust platform to support sustained growth in 
line with our Corporate Strategy.

Mining - Australia
Operational activities have continued to grow in gold, with 
MACA commencing new contracts with Ramelius Resources 
at Mount Magnet and for Northern Minerals Browns Range 
heavy rare earth minerals project.

MACA continues to perform well across its broad spectrum 
of projects in the mining sector. During the period MACA 
continued operations at Rosemont, Garden Well and 
Moolart Well for Regis Resources, Abydos and Mt Dove for 
Atlas Iron, Central Murchison for MetalsX and Matilda for 
Blackham Resources. 

Operations at Mount Monger for Silver Lake Resources, 
Golden Grove for MMG Mining, Deflector for Doray and 
Wodgina for Atlas Iron were completed during the year. 

Subsequent to year end operations commenced on our 
mining services contract for Ramelius Resources at its 
Mount Magnet project and the works for Central Murchison 
for MetalsX were completed.

The commencement of the Mount Magnet project for 
Ramelius and award of mining services at the Pilgangoora 
project for Pilbara Minerals in early September 2017 will 
enable MACA to fully utilise our mining equipment and 
importantly continued employment for personnel relocating 
from completed projects.

International
Both projects in Brazil for Beadell Resources’ Tucano 
gold project and Avanco’s copper project at Antas 
continue to perform satisfactorily given the challenges of 
remoteness, and the Company continues to look for further 
opportunities in Brazil.

Civil and Infrastructure
In the first half of FY 2017 MACA purchased the remaining 
25% of the Services South East business and rebranded it 
MACA Infrastructure. MACA was awarded a Road and Asset 
Maintenance contract with Main Roads in the Kimberley 
Region in February of 2017 in line with our strategy of 
growing the Infrastructure division.

Further to this the Civil division has commenced the 
Gruyere Gold project Site Bulk Earthworks, Access Roads, 
Airstrip and Tailings Storage Facility works.

Mineral Processing
In December 2016 MACA purchased 60% of Interquip, a 
privately owned business providing end to end processing 
solutions in Western Australia and the Northern Territory. 
The business has since been rebranded MACA Interquip. 
The acquisition has enabled MACA to establish a Structural, 
Mechanical and Piping (SMP) offering within the mining 
industry. The solid pipeline of opportunities supports 
MACA’s expectations of revenue and profit growth.

A strong culture and commitment to the MACA brand has 
contributed to the successful delivery of quality projects 
and financial performance. The ongoing commitment to 
training through our Leadership Development Program, 
Engineering Graduate and Apprentice Programs continues 
to ensure we develop skilled MACA employees. MACA 
highly values its diligent and loyal employees and the 
Board would like to extend its thanks to them and all of our 
stakeholders who remain an essential part of our success.

We remain committed to providing all of our employees and 
contractors with a safe place to work and we continually 
strive to ensure that safety remains a core focus within  
our business.

MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Civil and Infrastructure
The civil and infrastructure business in Western Australia 
has maintained its strong relationship with Main Roads 
by completing a number of road-works projects as the 
principal contractor during the period, and being awarded 
a Road and Asset Maintenance contract in the Kimberley 
region in February of 2017. 

MACA also commenced the Gruyere Gold project site bulk 
earthworks, access roads, airstrip and tailings storage 
facility (TSF) works in June 2017. 

In addition, MACA Civil has partnered with a local 
Pilbara Aboriginal company, Hicks Civil & Mining, to 
form Marniyarra Mining and Civil in the Karratha region 
of Western Australia.  This operating company is 50% 
owned by MACA Civil and is actively promoting aboriginal 
employment and development in the Pilbara.

The civil and infrastructure business in Victoria has 
maintained its strong relationships with VicRoads and  
Baw Baw Shire Council plus other local government  
clients with continuing long term Road and Asset 
Maintenance contracts.

In the first half of 2017 MACA purchased the remaining 25% 
of the Services South East business and rebranded it to 
MACA Infrastructure.

MACA Civil achieved re-certification in the National 
pre-qualification system to R4 (restricted) level for Roads 
and has retained its accreditation to the Office of Federal 
Safety. This allows continued participation on or competing 
for federally funded public infrastructure projects.

OPERATIONS

MACA Interquip
In December 2016 MACA purchased 60% of Interquip, a 
privately owned business providing end to end processing 
solutions in Western Australia and the Northern Territory. 
The acquisition has enabled MACA to establish a Structural, 
Mechanical and Piping (SMP) offering within the mining 
industry. 

Major projects to date are:

Newmont Mining - Tanami - Northern Territory

Supply and Install SMP, Electrical and Instrumentation 
on a new plant upgrade

HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
MACA believes that strong leadership in safety is critical to 
our business success and underpins our philosophy that 
each employee has the right to return home every day safe 
and healthy in the same way they began the day.

Our ongoing focus on the development of new safety 
standard initiatives continues to be a key business driver 
with the goal of ‘Zero Harm’ underpinning every task we 
perform in the workplace.

MACA manages risk through the continual improvement, 
measurement and review of its systems and processes 
targeted specifically to prevent incidents. Quarterly audits 
are conducted across all projects to measure compliance 
against our certified Occupational Health and Safety 
Management Systems (AS/NZS: 4801) and Environmental 
Management Systems (ISO: 14001) to provide a safe 
workplace for our employees, contractors, clients  
and visitors. 

The continued focus on health and safety through our audit 
and compliance processes has seen our Lost Time Injury 
Frequency Rate (LTIFR) at zero to June 2017 and other safety 
metrics remain well below industry benchmarks. 

Efforts this year have resulted in a reduction in the number 
of injuries with the Total Recordable Injury Frequency  
Rate (TRIFR) reducing by 34% to 7.8 per million  
man-hours worked.

QUALITY MANAGEMENT
MACA Mining and MACA Civil secured re-certification and 
MACA Infrastructure secured certification until April 2018 
for their Quality Management Systems (ISO: 9001) during 
the year and continues to develop their systems to support 
growth through continual measurement and review.

HUMAN RESOURCES
The Group’s Australian operations personnel have increased 
mainly through the acquisition of businesses within the last 
year, and the Brazilian operations have remained stable.  

The number of employees and contractors within the Group 
workforce worldwide stand at 1,540 - an increase of 29% at 
the corresponding period last year.

The Group retains a core of highly experienced long serving 
employees (+ 5 years’ and 10 years’ service) that form the 
backbone of the Company which it relies on to concentrate 
our efforts to remain efficient and competitive. Imperative 
to our business success is the skills and experience of our 
people and their ability to work in a safe and productive 
manner. Our hands on, CAN DO approach is what makes 
us different to other contractors.  Central to our success is 
our people, focus on business improvement and exceeding 
client expectations.

MACA continues to implement a number of Learning and 
Development programs to enhance the performance and 
engagement of our people.  Leadership development 
programs, apprenticeships, traineeships, mining and civil 
graduate programs, and the ongoing upskilling of our 
people ensures we are able to successfully meet future 
business challenges. 

MACA continues to adopt a proactive approach to promote 
and foster workplace diversity and equal opportunity for 
our people.  We take a zero tolerance position to any form 
of workplace discrimination and harassment.  Policies and 
programs are in place to deliver on our commitment to 
diversity, equal opportunity and harassment.  

INDIGENOUS EMPLOYMENT
MACA is fully committed to providing direct employment 
to Indigenous Australians.  Our Indigenous Employment 
Program is centered around affording Indigenous 
Australians equal opportunity to access jobs, skills 
development and career prospects.  We aim to play our  
part in enhancing the lives of Indigenous Australians  
where we can.

OF OPERATIONS

COMMUNITY
MACA, with the support of its employees, suppliers 
and other stakeholders maintains a strong link to the 
jurisdictions and communities in which it operates. The 
Company actively contributes to and supports many 
regional and local groups across a diverse range of 
activities as part of our focus on community engagement.  

MACA is the Title Sponsor for the ‘Ride to Conquer Cancer 
(RTCC)’ which directly supports the Harry Perkins Institute 
of Medical Research (Perkins). The support of ‘Perkins’ 
and the Ride continues in the current year with MACA 
employees and stakeholders united in their efforts to raise 
in excess of $1.3M with around 270 participating riders for 
this year’s event – an event that we have been involved with 
for 6 years now. 

During the year MACA continued its long-term association 
with the Hawaiian Ride for Youth raising funds and 
awareness for mental health, and the Princess Margaret 
Hospital Foundation through the provision of funds for 
medical equipment. The Company is also involved in various 
forms of sponsorship with the Hawaiian Ride for Youth and 
the West Australian Symphony Orchestra (WASO).

In closing, MACA highly values its hard working, dedicated 
and loyal employees. The Board would like to extend its 
thanks to them and all of our stakeholders who remain an 
integral part of our success.

company secretary and all executive and non-executive directors of the Company and any related body corporate against a 
liability incurred as such a director, company secretary or executive officer to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.

The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, 
indemnified or agreed to indemnify an officer or auditor of the Company or of any related body corporate against a liability 
incurred as such an officer or auditor. In accordance with a confidentiality clause under the insurance policy, the amount of the

No person has applied for leave of Court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or 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 any part of  
those proceedings.

The Company was not a party to any such proceedings during the year.

ASIC CI 2016/191 ROUNDING OF AMOUNTS
The Company is an entity to which ASIC CI 2106/191 Rounding of Amounts applies and, accordingly, amounts in the financial 
statements and directors’ report have been rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.

NON AUDIT SERVICES
No non-audit services were provided during the year by the auditor to the Company or any related body corporate.

AUDITORS INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
The auditor’s independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 33 and 
forms part of the directors’ report for the financial year ended 30 June 2017.

RISK
MACA’s risk management framework is embedded within existing processes and is aligned to the Company’s strategic business 
objectives. Given the markets and the geographies in which the Company operates, a wide range of risk factors have the 
potential to affect the achievement of these objectives. For further information in relation to the Company’s risk management 
framework, refer to the Corporate Governance Statement.

Set out below is an overview of the more significant business risks facing MACA and the approach taken to managing those 
risks. These do not comprise every risk that MACA could encounter nor are they set out in any particular order, when conducting 
its business. 

HEALTH, SAFETY, SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENT RISK 
The industry sectors in which we operate encounters a high degree of operational risk. MACA believes it takes reasonable 
precautions to manage safety and environmental risks to ensure the continued sustainability of the business. However, there 
can be no assurance that the Company will avoid significant costs, liability and penalties or criminal prosecution. This risk is 
mitigated by progressively improving on already high safety performance standards across the business and by maintaining 
independently reviewed health and safety, environmental and quality certifications. 

DEMAND RISK
MACA is a contractor operating predominantly in the mining resources and civil sectors. As a result, failure to obtain contracts, 
delays in awards of contracts, cancellations or terminations of contracts, delays in completion, changes in economic conditions 
and the volatile and cyclical nature of commodity prices means that the demand for MACA’s goods and services can vary 
markedly over relatively short periods. Accordingly, changes in market conditions could impact MACA’s financial performance. 
The Company seeks to manage demand risk as best it can by maintaining a diversified client base and commodity mix and 
having a proportion of equipment and labour on hire.

16

DIRECTORS’ REPORTMACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017DIRECTORS’ REPORT

ORDER BOOK RISK
Generally in the mining industry, most contracts can be terminated for convenience by the client at short notice and without 
penalty, with the client paying for all work completed to date, unused material and in most cases demobilisation from the site 
and redundancies. As a result, there can be no assurance that work in hand will be realised as revenue in any future period. 
MACA seeks to manage this risk by being selective in the contracts that it enters into and always seeks to extend contracts 
where possible in an effort to maximise its return on capital.

PROJECT DELIVERY RISK
The execution and delivery of projects involves judgment regarding the planning, development and operation of complex 
operating facilities and equipment. Some parts of MACA’s business are involved in large-scale projects that may occur over 
extended time periods. As a result, the Company’s operations, cash flows and liquidity could be affected if MACA miscalculates 
the resources or time needed to complete a project, if it fails to meet contractual obligations, or if it encounters delays or 
unspecified conditions. MACA maintains a strict project monitoring regime, proactive management and decision making to 
mitigate project delivery risks.

BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
When MACA acquires a business there is a risk of not being able to realise or sustain expected benefits of the acquisition. The 
goodwill represents the amounts paid for the business, less the fair value of the net assets acquired. MACA, at least annually, 
reviews the carrying value of goodwill and may incur impairment charges related to goodwill if the businesses or markets they 
serve deteriorate. In addition, businesses that MACA acquires may have liabilities that MACA was unaware of in the course 
of performing due diligence investigations. Any such liabilities may have material adverse impact on MACA’s business and 
financial position. As part of the due diligence process, MACA thoroughly reviews all contracts to mitigate the risk of acquiring 
onerous contracts and change in control provisions, and historic liabilities and integration risks.

COMPETITION RISK
The market in which MACA operates is highly competitive, which may result in downward pressure on prices and margins. 
If MACA is unable to compete effectively in its markets, it runs the risk of losing market share. MACA continues to focus on 
delivering quality services to make us a contractor of choice as a means of mitigating this risk.

CONTRACT PRICING RISK
MACA has a mixed exposure to contract types. However, if the Company materially underestimates the cost of providing 
services, equipment, or plant, there is a risk of a negative impact on MACA’s financial performance. MACA follows a proven 
tender review process to reduce the risk of under-pricing contracts.

LIQUIDITY RISK
The risk of MACA not being able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due is managed by maintaining adequate cash 
reserves and available borrowing facilities, as required. Errors or unforeseen changes in actual and forecast cash flows that 
then create a mismatch against the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities could have a detrimental effect on the 
Company’s liquidity. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have 
sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable 
losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. 

PARTNER RISK
MACA, in some cases, may undertake services through and participate in, joint ventures or partnering/alliance arrangements. 
The success of these partnering activities depends on the satisfactory performance by MACA’s partners. The failure of partners 
to meet performance obligations could impose additional financial and performance obligations that could cause significant 
impact on MACA’s reputation and financial results. MACA completes due diligence on potential partners prior to forming any 
business relationship and regularly monitors these relationships.

17

 MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017CURRENCY FLUCTUATION
As a Company with international operations, MACA is exposed to fluctuations in the value of the Australian dollar versus 
other currencies. Because MACA’s consolidated financial results are reported in Australian dollars, if MACA generates sales or 
earnings or has assets and liabilities in other currencies, the translation into Australian dollars for financial reporting purposes 
can result in a significant increase or decrease in the amount of those sales or earnings and net assets. MACA uses cash backed 
deposits to mitigate some of the US dollar currency risk. Currently the company has unhedged exposure to the Brazilian Real. 

Other material risks that could affect MACA include: 

•    public liability risk incurred maintaining road assets requiring identified defects to be closed out within a  

specified time frame

•    a major operational failure or disruption at key facilities or to communication systems which interrupt MACA’s business

•    changing government regulation including tax, occupational health and safety, and changes in policy and spending

•    operating in international markets, potentially exposing MACA to country specific adverse economic conditions,  

civil unrest, conflicts, and bribery and corrupt practices 

•    loss of reputation through poor project outcomes, unsafe work practices, unethical business practices, and not meeting the 

market’s expectation of its financial performance 

•    foreign exchange rates and interest rates in the ordinary course of business, and 

•    loss of key Board, management or operational personnel.

OUTLOOK
Whilst market conditions have remained challenging in Western Australia, we are experiencing a noticeable improvement in 
both mining activity and investor sentiment towards the sector. MACA believes it is well placed to benefit from the continuation 
of this recovery.  

The Company similarly expects to benefit from its recent investments in its expanded civil and infrastructure operations in 
Victoria through increased spending on road and asset management and maintenance services within the private sector and its 
acquisition of an end to end mineral processing solution provider. 

MACA’s strong operational performance and relationships with its clients continues to generate opportunities for growth. MACA 
is focused on continuing to deliver its services to clients whilst maintaining the ongoing commitment to its people, their safety 
and the culture that has made the business successful to date. 

MACA has a strong work in hand position at $1.13 billion as at 30 June 2017 and a solid balance sheet to facilitate further 
growth in the business. At this stage, the Company expects revenue for FY2018 to increase from the current year to be 
approximately $560 million. 

MACA continues to selectively identify opportunities and is well positioned to deliver growth of its quality services to clients in 
the sectors in which it operates.

REMUNERATION REPORT - AUDITED MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 20172           Remuneration Governance

The Board oversees the remuneration arrangements of the Company. 

In performing this function the Remuneration Committee reviews the remuneration packages of all Directors, the Chief Executive
Officer and other Executives (collectively the KMP). 

objectives.

The Committee makes recommendations to the Board on an annual basis with benchmarking against comparable industry
packages and adjusting to recognise the specific performance of both the company and the individual. 

The Remuneration Committee may also engage an external remuneration consultant to review the levels of senior executive and
non-executive remuneration. No external remuneration consultant was engaged over the past financial year. 

A decision to reduce executive salaries with effect from 1 June 2015 in recognition of current market conditions was introduced and
continued until 31 December 2016. From January 1 2017 there has been an uplift to all executive salaries of 3% to the reduced
salary levels in line with CPI.

3           2017 Executive remuneration framework 

Remuneration practices are continuously developed in line with the Company’s business demands, industry conditions and overall
market trends. The primary goal is to link executive remuneration with the achievement of MACA’s business and strategic
objectives with the aim to increase shareholder value over the short and longer term. The nature and amount of compensation for
executive KMP is designed to retain and motivate individuals on a market competitive basis.

5           Executive remuneration outcomes

In light of market conditions the Group executives and senior management of the Company reduced their base salaries by 5 to 10%

dependent on position from the 1st June 2015. These levels were held for 18 months to December 2016 and were reviewed at that

time. A decision was made to increase these salaries by 3% of the reduced base levels as of January 2017. Prior to this executive

remuneration increases were in line with CPI other than where there were changes in role, responsibility or position.

5.1       Managing Director and CEO arrangements

Mr Tuckwell’s remuneration package as CEO was determined by benchmarking it against that paid to CEOs in similar organisations. 

The remuneration package comprises the following components:

Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR) is $664,630 per annum inclusive of superannuation plus the use of a company motor vehicle.      

- 

-

An STI which includes the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus of up to 25% of total fixed remuneration, subject to

achieving performance hurdles. Mr Tuckwell’s STI plan has been aligned with other senior executives under similar plan rules

with KPIs that align to profitable performance and safety. The CEO’s STI Plan comprises 40% for key financial KPI’s, 30% for

safety KPI’s and 30% for personal KPI’s. The financial KPIs comprise Net Profit after Tax and Earnings per Share growth. The

safety KPIs are based on the Long Term Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) and the Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR).

There was an STI payable for Mr Tuckwell for 2017 as some KPI's were met - refer 5.4 below.

-

An LTI under which Mr Tuckwell may receive share performance rights convertible into fully paid shares, subject to

performance criteria being met. At the 2016 Annual General Meeting the Board sought and received approval for the grant of

268,254 Performance Rights pursuant to the Company’s Performance Rights Plan (PRP). Subject to the relevant performance

hurdles being met, these may vest in June 2019.

remuneration increases were in line with CPI other than where there were changes in role, responsibility or position.

5.1       Managing Director and CEO arrangements

Mr Tuckwell’s remuneration package as CEO was determined by benchmarking it against that paid to CEOs in similar organisations. 
The remuneration package comprises the following components:

- 

-

Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR) is $664,630 per annum inclusive of superannuation plus the use of a company motor vehicle.      

An STI which includes the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus of up to 25% of total fixed remuneration, subject to
achieving performance hurdles. Mr Tuckwell’s STI plan has been aligned with other senior executives under similar plan rules
with KPIs that align to profitable performance and safety. The CEO’s STI Plan comprises 40% for key financial KPI’s, 30% for
safety KPI’s and 30% for personal KPI’s. The financial KPIs comprise Net Profit after Tax and Earnings per Share growth. The
safety KPIs are based on the Long Term Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) and the Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR).

There was an STI payable for Mr Tuckwell for 2017 as some KPI's were met - refer 5.4 below.

-

An LTI under which Mr Tuckwell may receive share performance rights convertible into fully paid shares, subject to
performance criteria being met. At the 2016 Annual General Meeting the Board sought and received approval for the grant of
268,254 Performance Rights pursuant to the Company’s Performance Rights Plan (PRP). Subject to the relevant performance
hurdles being met, these may vest in June 2019.

Non-executive Directors fees are determined within an aggregate directors fee pool which is periodically recommended for

approval to shareholders. The current aggregate directors’ fee pool is $600,000. This provides for any future increases to Non-

executive Directors fees and to allow for any changes to the Board make up and potential increases in the number of Non-executive

Directors.

Fees paid to Non-executive Directors are set at levels which reflect both the responsibilities of, and time commitments required

from, each Non-executive Director to discharge their duties and are not linked to the financial performance of the Company. Non-

executive Directors fees are reviewed annually by the Board to ensure they are appropriate for the duties performed, including

Board committee duties, and are in line with the market. Other than statutory superannuation, Non-executive Directors are not

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE  DECLARATION MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017Corporate Governance Statement – Checklist

The  Board of MACA Limited is committed to ensuring that the Company’s obligations and responsibilities to its stakeholders are 
fulfilled through its corporate governance practices. MACA is committed to the development of a culture that delivers our 
Promise – We Care, We are Flexible and We Deliver, and the Core Values of the Company – People First, Exceed Expectations, 
Continuous Improvement and Community. We believe that operating in accordance with the corporate governance guidelines 
enhances the delivery of the above expectations.

This checklist reports on MACA’s key governance principles and practices which are reviewed and revised as appropriate to 
reflect changes in law and developments in corporate governance. A complete Corporate Governance Statement and all 
Charters, Policies, Procedures, Disclosures, Definitions, Codes and Strategies are available for viewing on the Company’s website 
under the Corporate Governance tab.

As required by the Australian Securities Exchange Limited (“ASX”) Listing Rules, the Corporate Governance Statement contained 
on the Company website and in reference to this checklist reports on:

-    The extent to which the Company has followed the Corporate Governance recommendations contained in the ASX Corporate 
Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (3rd Edition); and

-    The reasons for any departures from the Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and 
Recommendations (3rd Edition), in compliance with the “if not, why not” regime.

Overall approach to corporate governance

The Board as a whole reviews and makes changes in line with recommendations made by individual board members and as a 
result of this focus, the Board is satisfied that the Company meets the Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance 
Principles and Recommendations with departures as disclosed below. There were no departures during the year. A checklist 
cross-referencing the Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations to the relevant 
sections of this Statement is shown below.

ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Principles and Recommendations
Under ‘Compliance’ where an ‘x’ appears refer to the Corporate Governance 
statement (available on the Company website) for the appropriate reasoning for the 
departure from the Corporate governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles 
and Recommendations.

putting forward to security holders a candidate for election, as a 
director; and

elect a director.
A listed entity should have a written agreement with each director 
and senior executive setting out the terms of their appointment.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS for the year ended 30 June 2017 MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017

NOTE 1.    STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a.    Basis of Preparation 

The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting
Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian
Accounting Standards. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting standards as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in financial statements
containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting
Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued
by the IASB. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have
been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. 

These financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable,
liabilities. These financial
by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial
statements are presented in Australian dollars.

b.    Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of MACA Limited as at 30 June 2017
and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. MACA Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these
financial statements as the ‘consolidated entity’.

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when
the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to
affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on
which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset
transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies
adopted by the consolidated entity.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest,
is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration
without the loss of control,
transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to
the parent.

Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the consolidated entity. Losses
incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

c.    Business Combinations

Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or
businesses under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is obtained,
whereby the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised
(subject to certain limited exemptions).

When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent
consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not
remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or
liability is remeasured in each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the
change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not

remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or

liability is remeasured in each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the

change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

c.    Business Combinations (cont)

All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations, other than those associated with the issue of a financial
instrument, are recognised as expenses in profit or loss when incurred.

The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.

Goodwill

Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum of:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

the consideration transferred;

any non-controlling interest (determined under either the full goodwill or proportionate interest method); 
and

the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest;

over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired.

The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date fair value of
any previously held equity interest shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial statements.

Fair value remeasurements in any pre-existing equity holdings are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Where changes in the value of such equity holdings had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income, such
amounts are recycled to profit or loss.
The amount of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the Group holds less than 100% interest will depend
on the method adopted in measuring the non-controlling interest. The Group can elect in most circumstances to measure the non-
controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value (full goodwill method) or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate
share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets (proportionate interest method). In such circumstances, the Group determines
which method to adopt for each acquisition and this is stated in the respective notes to these financial statements disclosing the
business combination.

Under the full goodwill method, the fair value of the non-controlling interest is determined using valuation techniques which
make the maximum use of market information where available. Under this method, goodwill attributable to the non-controlling
interest is recognised in the consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in
investments in associates.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group's cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating
units, representing the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored and not larger than an operating segment. Gains and losses on
the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill related to the entity disposed of.

Changes in the ownership interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions
and do not affect the carrying amounts of goodwill.

d.    Income Tax 

The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense
(income).

Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income
tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore
measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well
as unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the
profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully
expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an
asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised
or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Their
measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related
asset or liability.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable
that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.

d.    Income Tax (cont)

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it
is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement
or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the
same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or
simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant
amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

e.    Inventories

Inventories and work in progress are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products
includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Overheads are applied on the
basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs. 

f.    Property, Plant and Equipment 

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses.

Property

Freehold land and buildings are shown at their fair value (being the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between
knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction), based on periodic, but at least triennial, valuations by external
independent valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings.

Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to a revaluation surplus in equity.
Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against fair value reserves directly in equity, all other
decreases are charged to the statement of comprehensive income. Each year the difference between depreciation based on the
revalued carrying amount of the asset charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and
depreciation based on the asset’s original cost is transferred from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings.

Any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net
amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.

The carrying amount of 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 group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs
and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
Subsequent costs are included in the assets 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 Group and the cost of the item can be measured
reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in
which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is
depreciated on a diminishing value or straight line basis over the asset’s useful life to the consolidated group commencing from
the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period
of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

Class of Fixed Asset

Depreciation Rate

Leasehold improvements

2.50%

Plant and equipment

Low value pool

Motor vehicles

10% – 66.67%

18.75% – 37.5%

18.75% – 50%

The asset’s residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

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.

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.

The carrying amount of 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

The asset’s residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

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
included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in
the revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

g.    Leases

Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal
ownership that is transferred to entities in the consolidated group, are classified as finance leases. 
Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased
property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are
allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.
Leased assets are depreciated on a diminishing or straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease
term. 
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as
expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. 
Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease
term. 

h.    Financial Instruments

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the
instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of
the asset. 
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified ‘at fair
value through profit or loss’, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.

Classification and subsequent measurement

Finance instruments are subsequently measured at either of fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or
cost. Fair value represents the amount for which an asset could be exchanged or a liability settled, between knowledgeable,
willing parties. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value.
In other circumstances,
valuation techniques are adopted.

Amortised cost is calculated as: 

i.           the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition;

ii.          less principal repayments;

iii.         plus or minus the cumulative amortisation of the difference, if any, between the amount initially recognised and the
maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method ; and

iv.         less any reduction for impairment.

The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to
the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums
or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial
instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will
necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in profit or loss.

The Group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the
requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.

a.          Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets are classified at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ when they are either held for trading for the purpose of short-
term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting
mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a
fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are subsequently
measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss.  

b.          Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active
market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Loans and receivables are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12 months after
the end of the reporting period. (All other loans and receivables are classified as non-current assets).

c.          Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments,
and it is the Group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity.  They are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 12
months after the end of the reporting period. (All other investments are classified as current assets).
If during the period the Group sold or reclassified more than an insignificant amount of the held-to-maturity investments before
maturity, the entire held-to-maturity investments category would be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale.

d.          Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other
categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in
the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.

Available-for-sale financial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 12
months after the end of the reporting period. (All other financial assets are classified as current assets).

e.          Financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Fair value 

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine
the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option
pricing models. 

Impairment 

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been
impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered
to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 

De-recognition

Financial assets are de-recognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to
another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with
the asset. Financial liabilities are de-recognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The
difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of
consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

i.    Impairment of Assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The
assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from
subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. 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 value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable
amount is expensed to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount
of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. 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 value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable

amount is expensed to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount

of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

j.    Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in

which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s

functional and presentation currency.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

j.    Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances (cont)
Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the
transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at
historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair 
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain
or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and
other comprehensive income.

Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation
currency are translated as follows:

–           assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period;

–           income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and

–           retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the Group’s foreign currency
translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and
other comprehensive income in the period in which the operation is disposed.

k.    Employee Benefits

Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date.
Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when
the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated
future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wages
increases and the probability that the employee may satisfy vesting requirements. Those cash outflows are discounted using
market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash flows.

Equity-settled compensation

The Group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to
which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a
corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of
options and performance rights are ascertained using a Black–Scholes pricing model and a Monte Carlo simulation respectively
which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at
the end of each reporting date such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments
granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. The impact of the revision of original estimates,
if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with corresponding
adjustment to the equity settled Option Reserve.

l.    Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable
that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. 

m.    Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in
current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

 MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

n.    Revenue and Other Income

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts
and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as the provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of
interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially
recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks and
rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets, is the rate
inherent in the instrument.
All dividends received shall be recognised as revenue when the right to receive the dividend has been established.

Revenue recognition relating to the provision of services is determined with reference to the stage of completion of the
transaction at the end of the reporting period and where outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably. Stage of completion
is determined with reference to the services performed to date as a percentage of total anticipated services to be performed.
Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that related expenditure is
recoverable.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

o.    Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by
the Group during the reporting period which remains unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amount
being normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

p.     Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial
period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are
substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in income in the period in which they are incurred.

q.     Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not
recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of
the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive
of GST. 
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cashflows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing
activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
r.     Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the
current financial year. 

When the Group applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its
financial statements, a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed.

s.     Changes in ownership interests

The group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity
owners of the group. A change in ownership interests results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling
and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the
adjustment to non-controlling interests and the consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity.

When the group ceases to have control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to
its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the
purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, jointly controlled entity or financial asset. In
addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the
group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other
comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

50

MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

s.     Changes in ownership interests (cont)

If the ownership interest in a jointly-controlled entity or an associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is
retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to
profit or loss where appropriate.

t.     Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge and
best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends
and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.

Key estimates

i.           Impairment

The Group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events specific to the Group that
may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use calculations
which incorporate various key assumptions.  

The value in use calculations with respect to assets require an estimation of the future cash flows expected to arise from each
cash generating unit and a suitable discount rate to apply to these cash flows to calculate net present value. The Directors have
determined that there is no adjustment required to the carrying value of assets in the current reporting period.

Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by

the Group during the reporting period which remains unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amount

ii.          Taxation

Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, are based on best estimates. These
estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the Group as they pertain to current income taxation
legislation, and the Group’s understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The
current income tax position represents that best estimate, pending an assessment by the Australian Taxation Office.

iii.         Estimation of Useful Lives of Assets

The estimation of the useful lives of property, plant and equipment is based on historical experience and is reviewed on an
ongoing basis. The condition of the assets is assessed at least annually against the remaining useful life with adjustments made
when considered necessary.

Key judgments

i.           Environmental Issues

Balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental
legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the Group’s development and its current
environmental impact the directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate.

u.     Rounding of Amounts

The parent entity has applied the relief available to it under ASIC CI 2016/191 and accordingly, amounts in the financial
statements and directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest $1,000.  

n.    Revenue and Other Income

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade discounts

and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as the provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of

interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially

recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks and

rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods.

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets, is the rate

inherent in the instrument.

All dividends received shall be recognised as revenue when the right to receive the dividend has been established.

Revenue recognition relating to the provision of services is determined with reference to the stage of completion of the

transaction at the end of the reporting period and where outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably. Stage of completion

is determined with reference to the services performed to date as a percentage of total anticipated services to be performed.

Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that related expenditure is

recoverable.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

o.    Trade and Other Payables

being normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

p.     Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial

period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are

substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in income in the period in which they are incurred.

q.     Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not

recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of

the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive

Cash flows are presented in the statement of cashflows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing

activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the

of GST. 

r.     Comparative Figures

current financial year. 

When the Group applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its

financial statements, a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed.

s.     Changes in ownership interests

The group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity

owners of the group. A change in ownership interests results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling

and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the

adjustment to non-controlling interests and the consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity.

When the group ceases to have control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to

its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the

purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, jointly controlled entity or financial asset. In

addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the

group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other

comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

The Group has approximately 32.1% (2016: 43.9%) of credit risk with a single counterparty or group of counterparties. Failure or

The following table details the Group’s trade and other receivables exposed to credit risk (prior to collateral and other credit
enhancements) with ageing analysis and impairment provided for thereon. Amounts are considered as ‘past due’ when the debt
has not been settled within the terms and conditions agreed between the Group and the customer or counterparty to the

The company has no authorised share capital. Ordinary shares participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the
parent entity in proportion to the number of shares held. At the shareholders’ meetings each ordinary share is entitled to one
vote when a poll is called, otherwise each shareholder has one vote on a show of hands.

Management controls the capital of the Group in order to maintain a prudent debt to equity ratio, provide the shareholders with
adequate returns and ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern.

The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.

There are no externally imposed capital requirements. Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the
Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses
include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues.

operating decision maker) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.

The Group operates predominantly in two businesses and two geographical segments being the provision of civil and contract
mining services throughout Australia and mining services to the mining industry in Brazil, South America. 

Basis of Accounting for Purposes of Reporting by Operating Segments

Accounting Policies Adopted

Unless otherwise stated, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief operating decision maker, is in accordance
with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the financial statements of the Company.

Inter-segment transactions

Inter-segment loans payable and receivable are initially recognized at the consideration received net of transaction costs. If inter-
segment loans receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not adjusted to fair value based on market interest
rates. This policy represents a departure from that applied to the statutory financial statements.

Segment assets

Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of economic
value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical
location.  

Unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, investments in financial assets, deferred tax assets and intangible assets
have not been allocated to operating segments.

The Board of Directors (“the Board”) is responsible for, amongst other issues, monitoring and managing financial risk exposures of
the Group. The Board monitors the Group’s financial risk management policies and exposures and approves financial transactions
within the scope of its authority. It also reviews the effectiveness of internal controls relating to commodity price risk,
counterparty credit risk, currency risk, financing risk and interest rate risk.

The Board’s overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the consolidated group in meeting its financial targets, while
minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance. Its functions include the review of the use of hedging derivative
instruments, credit risk policies and future cash flow requirements.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk consisting of
interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and commodity and equity price risk.

a.          Credit risk

Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract
obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group.

Credit risk is managed through the maintenance of procedures (such procedures include the utilisation of systems for the
approval, granting and renewal of credit limits, regular monitoring of exposures against such limits and monitoring of the financial
stability of significant customers and counterparties), ensuring to the extent possible, that customers and counterparties to
transactions are of sound credit worthiness. Such monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment. Depending on the
division within the Group, credit terms are generally 14 to 30 days from the invoice date.

Risk is also minimised through investing surplus funds in financial institutions that maintain a high credit rating, or in entities that
the Board has otherwise cleared as being financially sound. Where the Group is unable to ascertain a satisfactory credit risk
profile in relation to a customer or counterparty, the risk may be further managed through insurance, title retention clauses over
goods or obtaining security by way of personal or commercial guarantees over assets of sufficient value which can be claimed
against in the event of any default.

 MACA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2017NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 28.    FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (cont)

The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at balance date, excluding the value of any collateral
or other security held, is equivalent to the carrying value and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as
presented in the statement of financial position. Credit risk also arises through the provision of financial guarantees, as approved
at Board level, given to parties securing the liabilities of certain subsidiaries (refer Note 29 for details).

The Group has approximately 32.1% (2016: 43.9%) of credit risk with a single counterparty or group of counterparties. Failure or
default of a major counterparty would have a material impact on earnings. Details with respect to credit risk of Trade and Other
Receivables are provided in Note 11(a). MACA carries a credit risk insurance policy. The amount of cover varies on a client by
client basis dependant on the counterparty.

Trade and other receivables that are neither past due or impaired are considered to be of acceptable quality. Aggregates of such
amounts are as detailed in Note 11(a).  

Credit risk related to balances held with banks and other financial institutions are only invested with counterparties with a
Standard & Poors rating of at least AA-.

b.          Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its
obligations related to financial liabilities.  The Group manages this risk through the following mechanisms:

-
-
-
-

-

-
-

preparing forward looking cashflow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities;
monitoring undrawn credit facilities;
obtaining funding from a variety of sources;
maintaining a reputable credit profile;

managing credit risk related to financial assets;

only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions; and
comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with the realisation profile of financial assets.

The Group’s policy is to ensure that all lease agreements entered into, are over a period that will ensure that adequate cash flows
will be available to meet repayments.

The tables below reflect an undiscounted (except for finance lease liabilities) contractual maturity analysis for financial liabilities.
Financial guarantee liabilities are treated as payable on demand since the Group has no control over the timing of any potential
settlement of the liabilities.

Cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may
therefore differ from that disclosed. The timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflects the
earliest contractual settlement dates and does not reflect management’s expectations that banking facilities will be rolled
forward.

The group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies. The currency exposure relates to Brazilian Real and a USD lease facility.
The USD lease facility is offset by cash held in a USD bank account equal to the total of the lease. Brazilian Real is unhedged.

Sensitivity Analysis

The following illustrates sensitivities to the Group’s exposures to changes in interest rates, and equity prices. The table indicates
the impact on how profit and equity values reported at the end of the reporting period would have been affected by changes in
the relevant risk variable that management considers to be reasonably possible.

These sensitivities assume that the movement in a particular variable is independent of the other variables.

Net Fair Values

Fair value estimation

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability
settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. The fair values of financial assets and financial
liabilities approximate the carrying values in the financial statements.

Fair values derived may be based on information that is estimated or subject to judgment, where changes in assumptions may
have a material impact on the amounts estimated. Where possible, valuation information used to calculate fair value is extracted
from the market, with more reliable information available from markets that are actively traded.
In this regard, fair values for
listed securities are obtained from quoted market bid prices. Where securities are unlisted and no market quotes are available,
fair value is obtained using discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value 

The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the statement of financial position have been analysed and classified using a
fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy consists of
the following levels:

-

-

-

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; 

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and

Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Included within Level 1 for the current and previous reporting periods are listed investments. The fair value of these assets have
been based on the closing quoted bid prices at the end of the reporting period, excluding transaction costs. The Group does not
have other material instruments within the fair value hierarchy.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 33.    NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS NOT YET MANDATORY OR EARLY ADOPTED

Accounting Standards issued by the AASB that are not yet mandatorily applicable to the Group, together with an assessment of
the potential impact of such pronouncements on the Group when adopted in future periods, are discussed below:

(i) AASB 9: Financial Instruments and associated Amending Standards (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or 

The Standard will be applicable retrospectively and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of
financial instruments, revised recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments and simplified requirements
for hedge accounting. The key changes that may affect the Group on initial application include certain simplifications to the
classification of financial assets, simplifications to the accounting of embedded derivatives, upfront accounting for expected credit
loss, and the irrevocable election to recognise gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading
in other comprehensive income.  AASB 9 also introduces a new model for hedge accounting that will allow greater flexibility in the 
ability to hedge risk, particularly with respect to hedges of non-financial items. Should the entity elect to change its hedge
policies in line with the new hedge accounting requirements of the Standard, the application of such accounting would be largely
prospective. 

Transactions between related parties are on normal commercial terms and conditions no more favourable than those available to

The Directors do not anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 will have any significant impact on the Group’s financial statements.

(ii) AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2018, as 

When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to revenue with a single, principles-
based model. Except for a limited number of exceptions, including leases, the new revenue model in AASB 15 will apply to all
contracts with customers as well as non-monetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales to
customers and potential customers. The core principle of the Standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the
transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be
entitled in exchange for the goods or services. To achieve this objective, AASB 15 provides the following five-step process:

-

-

-

-

identify the contract(s) with a customer;

identify the performance obligations in the contract(s);

determine the transaction price;

allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and

The transitional provisions of this Standard permit an entity to either: restate the contracts that existed in each prior period
presented per AASB 108: Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (subject to certain practical expedients
in AASB 15); or recognise the cumulative effect of retrospective application to incomplete contracts on the date of initial
application. There are also enhanced disclosure requirements regarding revenue. 

The Directors do not anticipate that the adoption of AASB 15 will have any significant impact on the Group’s financial statements.

(iii) AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).

When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to leases in AASB 117: Leases and 

recognition of a right-to-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short-term leases with less than 12
months of    tenure and leases relating to low-value assets);    

depreciation of right-to-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in profit or loss and
unwinding of the liability in principal and interest components;

variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are included in the initial measurement of the lease
liability using the index or rate at the commencement date;

by applying a practical expedient, a lessee is permitted to elect not to separate non-lease components and
instead account for all components as a lease; and 

additional disclosure requirements.

-

-

-

-

-

The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lessee to either retrospectively apply the Standard to comparatives in line with
AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect of retrospective application as an adjustment to opening equity on the date of initial
application. 

The Directors do not anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 will have any significant impact on the Group’s financial statements.
The Company has an operating lease in relation to the business premises it conducts business from. All other operating leases
currently held by the Company are immaterial.

This Standard amends AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements with regards to a parent losing control over a subsidiary that is
not a “business” as defined in AASB 3 to an associate or joint venture, and requires that:

remaining gain or loss should be eliminated against the carrying amount of the remaining investment.

prospectively to sales or contributions of subsidiaries to associates or joint ventures occurring on or after 1 January 2018.
Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 2014-10 may have an impact on the Group’s financial statements, it is
impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT

Key Audit Matters (continued) 

Existence and Ownership of Assets – Plant and Equipment 
Refer to Note 13 “Property, Plant and Equipment” 
Existence and ownership of plant and equipment is 
a key audit matter. 
It is due to the size of this account balance and the 
location  of  plant  and  equipment  (most  located  at 
client  sites  throughout  Australia  and  overseas  i.e. 
Brazil) that this is a key area of audit focus. 

Our procedures included: 
• We  agreed  a  sample  of  plant  and  equipment 
additions  to  supplier  invoices  and  to  Capital 
Expenditure  Request  Forms  (for  appropriate 
authority); 

• We agreed a sample of plant and equipment to 

Recognition of Revenue 
Refer to Note 2 “Revenue and Other Income” 
The  Group’s  largest  revenue  stream  relates  to  the 
rendering of mining services, all of which are based 
on contracts which determine the services, products 
and rates to be charged. 
The  accurate  recording  of  revenue 
dependent upon the following key factors; 
• Knowledge of the individual characteristics and 

is  highly 

status of contracts; 

• Management’s invoicing process including; 

− accurate  measurement  of  work  done  and 

services provided each month 

− invoices  prepared 

in  compliance  with 
contract  terms  such  as  services  performed 
and rates charged; 

• Determination  of 

variations  and 

claims, 
including compliance with contractual terms and 
an assessment of when the Group believes it is 
probable that the amount will be approved and 
thus recovered from the customer. 

We focused on this matter as a key audit matter due 
to  the  significance  of  revenue  to  the  Group 
combined with the need to comply with a variety of 
contractual conditions, leading to judgemental risk 
associated with revenue recognition. 

hire purchase financing agreements; 

• We agreed a sample of plant and equipment in 
Australia  and  Brazil  by  obtaining  date  stamped 
photographs  and  videos  taken by senior MACA 
personnel. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
• We 

evaluated  management’s 

processes 
regarding existence and valuation of the Group’s 
contract revenues.  We tested internal controls 
in  relation  to  preparation  and  authorisation  of 
monthly  revenue  invoices  for  compliance  with 
the Group’s policy; 

• We  selected  a  sample  of  sales  invoices  raised 
during  the  year  and  performed  the  following 
procedures; 
− agreed to contractual terms and rates 
− agreed  to  general 

ledger  accounts  and 

subsequent receipts from the customer 
− for  variations  or  claims  we  checked  they 
were in accordance with contract terms and 
evaluated for risk of non-recovery; 

• We evaluated contract performance during and

Our procedures included, amongst others: 
• We  assessed  management’s  determination  of

Beadell  Resources  Limited  we  obtained  direct 

confirmation  from  Beadell  Resources  Limited

Impairment of Goodwill

position 

includes  goodwill  of  $6.53  million, 

contained within 3 cash generating units (“CGUs”). 

The  assessment  of  impairment  of  the  Group’s 

goodwill 

balances 

incorporated 

significant 

judgement  in  respect  of  factors  such  as  discount 

rates,  underlying  cashflows  (in  particular  future 

revenue growth), as well as economic assumptions 

such as inflation rates. 

The sectors in which the Group operated during the 

period have experienced the impacts of a decline in 

economic conditions along with volatile commodity 

prices. 

A key audit matter for us was whether the Group’s 

value

impairment 

included 

appropriate consideration of these factors on their 

significant estimates and judgements. 

Key Matters (continued) 

Acquisition of Interquip Pty Ltd 
Refer to Note 5 “Business Combinations” 
On  15  December  2016  the  Group  acquired  a  60% 
controlling  interest  in  Interquip  Pty  Ltd  for  total 
consideration of $9.5 million. 
Accounting for this transaction is complex, requiring 
management  to  exercise  judgement  to  determine 
the  fair  value  of  contingent  consideration,  the  fair 
value of acquired assets and liabilities, including the 
allocation of purchase consideration to goodwill and 
separately identifiable intangible assets. 
This is a key audit matter due to the significance of 
the  acquisition  and 
in 
accounting for the transaction.

Other Information 
The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the information 
included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial 
report and our auditor’s report thereon. 

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

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

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

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

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

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT

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

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

•

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

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

•

•

•

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

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

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

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

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

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

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