LETTER FROM THE CHAIR

Dear Shareholders,

I’m very pleased that Macmahon has delivered strategically, 
operationally and financially for the 2022 financial year, despite 
challenging economic conditions in Australia and globally,  
and the ongoing impacts of COVID-19. 

This is highlighted by Macmahon achieving record 
underlying EBITDA and underlying EBIT(A), as 
well as meeting revenue and earnings guidance 
for the year. This is the fifth consecutive year that 
Macmahon has met or exceeded market guidance.

Our full year results and solid financial position 
reflect the Company's ability to successfully 
navigate this current period of market volatility,  
and challenging market conditions to deliver 
sustainable profitable growth. 

We achieved revenue of $1.7 billion and underlying 
EBIT(A) of $100.8 million. Macmahon ended the 
year with $5.0 billion of contracted work in hand, 
underpinning a high-level of secured revenue 
and earnings for FY23 and beyond. Macmahon 
maintained a liquidity position of $255.8 million  
as at 30 June, providing capacity to capitalise on 
growth opportunities.

We continue to seek to diversify our revenue mix 
and order book in less capital intensive and higher 
Return on Average Capital Employed projects, 
particularly in the underground segment, as well  
as the rehabilitation, engineering and civil space.

On a macroeconomic level, the mining industry  
and our business have been impacted by  
continued supply chain disruptions, rapidly  
rising global inflationary pressures, and escalating 
labour costs. Coupled with a shortage of skilled 
labour exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, 
labour availability and costs have been a  
significant challenge that management has  
been actively addressing.

We have proactively implemented a prudent cost 
management strategy to mitigate the extent of 
cost pressures to our business, which Managing 
Director and CEO, Mick Finnegan will discuss in 
further detail in his report. Pleasingly, the impacts 
of the COVID-19 pandemic have been gradually 
ameliorating in line with vaccination rollouts and 
travel restrictions easing, however remain an 
ongoing risk. Macmahon will continue to carefully 
manage these risks in our business to protect 
our workforce and stakeholders, and safeguard 
business continuity.

Accomplishing these strong results  
in such a challenging environment  
is commendable and is a testament  
to the quality, commitment and 
diligence of all our people. 

Speaking of our people, our business saw significant 
growth in our workforce during the year, despite 
the tight labour market.  Our people’s safety and 
wellbeing remain at the core of how we do business 
and is always a critical focus area for Macmahon.  
I am delighted that we are able to report a 
significant improvement in safety performance 
during the year. We are not taking this result for 
granted and will continue to pursue improving 
health and safety outcomes.

Furthermore, during FY22 Macmahon participated 
in the WA parliamentary inquiry into sexual 
harassment against women in the FIFO mining 
industry, and we have reinforced our commitment, 
backed by tangible action, to ensure all our people 
feel safe and comfortable at work.

10

Macmahon Annual Report 2022OUR FY22 HIGHLIGHTS

Met our environmental, social and 
governance obligations. 

Improved safety performance.

Focused on eliminating sexual harassment, 
not only from our business but also from 
our industry. 

Published our stand-alone FY22 
Sustainability Report.

Delivered strategically, operationally,  
and financially in FY22 despite  
challenging economic conditions and  
the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Declared a final dividend of 0.35 cents  
per share, bringing our full year dividend  
to 0.65 cents per share.

Governance is a key consideration for our Board, 
and its composition has regard to a diverse range 
of skills and experience. The key change during 
the year was the retirement of Vyril Vella as a 
Non-Executive Director after having been involved 
with the Company since 2007. Vyril made an 
outstanding contribution to Macmahon over  
many years and I sincerely wish him the best  
for his retirement.

Our standalone Sustainability Report for FY22 
expands upon the information provided in this 
Annual Report and further outlines progress on 
Environmental, Social and Governance activities and 
initiatives. We remain focused on our commitment 
and advancing disclosure across the ESG spectrum 
with a view to continuous improvement.

In line with the capital allocation policy, Macmahon 
is committed to paying a sustainable dividend and 
is currently targeting a payout ratio of 10-25% of 
underlying earnings per share. We are pleased to 
advise that the Board has declared a final dividend 
for the 2022 financial year of 0.35 cents per share, 
bringing the full year dividend to 0.65 cents per 
share. This is in line with the full year FY21 dividend 
and represents a payout ratio of 21.7% of underlying 
earnings per share. 

On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank 
Managing Director and CEO Mick Finnegan, and 
all our people for their dedication and significant 
contributions this year, along with our shareholders, 
clients and suppliers for their ongoing support.

CEO AND MD REPORT

KEY ACHIEVEMENTS
A disciplined execution of our strategy has enabled 
Macmahon to achieve positive financial results for 
FY22, during a year that has been financially and 
operationally challenging for the mining services 
industry at large.

Macmahon has delivered record earnings with 
underlying EBIT(A) of $100.8 million, compared to 
our underlying FY22 EBIT(A) guidance range of 
$95 million to $105 million. We are extremely proud 
that the Company has continued its track record 
of meeting or exceeding earnings guidance for five 
consecutive years.

This performance was delivered during the 
COVID-19 pandemic (COVID) and broader 
economic headwinds. COVID related challenges 
included sickness related absenteeism, supply chain 
disruption, extremely tight skilled labour markets in 
Australia with an almost record low unemployment 
rate, and rising cost and wage inflation. Our 7,848 
strong workforce has risen to the challenges over 
the year to deliver this record result and deserve 
recognition for this.

The Group reported revenue of $1.7 billion, meeting 
our full year guidance range for FY22 of $1.6 billion 
to $1.7 billion. Full year revenue increased by 26% 
over the prior year, driven by increased activity 
across all business areas, which included several 
new project start-ups in Australia and the impact of 
escalation cost recovery. 

Our Statutory Net Profit After Tax was $27.4 million, 
due to the inclusion of the GBF earn-out finalised 
during the first half, Software as a Service (SaaS) 
costs and amortisation of customer contract assets 
after (SaaS) customisation before costs recognised 
on acquisitions as well as impairment of non-core 
discontinued business assets which will be disposed 
of. Excluding these non-recurring costs, underlying 
FY22 NPAT(A) was $63.0 million. 

KEY CLIENT AND OPERATIONAL 
HIGHLIGHTS DURING THE 2022 
FINANCIAL YEAR INCLUDED:

Ending FY22 with a $5.0 billion order book 
including $1.45 billion secured for FY23.

Civil works for Calidus Resources being 
the construction of their new Warrawoona 
mine site, a tailings storage facility buttress 
at Fimiston for Northern Star Resources 
and various mine services and rehabilitation 
projects on the east coast of Australia.

Ramping up Foxleigh and Gwalia to a steady 
state and the commencement of Dawson 
South, Fimiston, Warrawoona and King of 
the Hills surface and underground projects. 

Telfer contract following re-negotiations in 
FY21 is delivering improved performance.

Successful redeployment of Mt Morgans 
workforce and plant to other Macmahon 
projects following closure of the Mt Morgans 
project by Dacian Gold late in the  
financial year.

Advancing our mining equipment 
technology deployment roadmap in both 
the surface and underground operations  
to enhance safe and efficient productivity.

12

Macmahon Annual Report 2022HEALTH AND SAFETY
As noted by our Chair, we are extremely pleased 
to be able to report a significantly improved safety 
Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR) 
performance during FY22. Health and safety is 
our highest priority, and as a Company we are 
perennially looking to implement measures to 
improve safety outcomes. 

Macmahon’s TRIFR for FY22 decreased to 4.80 
from 6.39 in the previous year. This is a terrific 
improvement, but as always there is still work to 
do. Importantly, we are focussing on how to evolve 
our culture and we have developed a Winning at 
Macmahon (WAM) formula. Part of this formula 
includes evolving our values, that are foundational 
to culture, which we expect will further benefit 
safety outcomes. I’ll comment more on WAM in  
the People section that follows.

Also as mentioned by our Chair, during the year 
we participated in the WA parliamentary inquiry 
into sexual harassment against women in the FIFO 
mining industry. We are already delivering on our 
commitment to do more in addressing this issue 
through the implementation of tangible actions 
and roadmaps. We know as we mature in this area 
we will learn more and our approach is designed 
to be agile and adaptive to ensure we can apply 
the learnings to our program quickly. It is critical 
to us that we ensure all our people are safe and 
comfortable at work. 

For example, we have introduced enhanced 
respectful workplace behaviour and bystander 
training, which has already yielded positive results 
– such as an increased incidence of bystanders 
stepping forward to call out inappropriate behaviour. 
Additionally, we have strengthened reporting 
mechanisms and policies, as well as broadened our 
pre-employment background checks.

Finally, I can’t talk about safety without also 
addressing mental health and wellbeing, which 
continues to be an important part of our safety 
efforts. We have been extending our leading 
Strong Minds, Strong Mines program to our wider 
community and are now also piloting a Strong 
Minds, Strong Schools program.

PEOPLE
An unemployment rate approaching record lows in 
Australia in conjunction with increased demand for 
contract mining services and COVID related labour 

disruptions have resulted in a significantly tightened 
labour market in Australia throughout the year. 

In response to the tight labour market,  
Macmahon continues to focus on the retention  
and development of our people and attracting 
skilled people and new industry entrants to  
support our growing business. The Company has 
increased its focus on apprenticeships, internal and 
industry training, and across FY22, developed 467 
trainees, 102 apprentices and, 29 graduates. We 
delivered or were delivering training to 1,030 people 
during FY22, which includes 101 non-Macmahon 
industry participants.

Our workforce expanded during the year to reach 
7,848 and we have demonstrated our ability to 
successfully resource and ramp up to support 
growing our business for our clients. 

The Company has also proactively undertaken 
various initiatives to retain and develop people 
in the longer-term, including more frequent 
benchmarking pay reviews, offering flexible FIFO 
rosters, international recruitment, the establishment 
of a training school and investment in significant 
training of our people as mentioned earlier.

Our focus on retaining and attracting people 
into our business has also involved reviewing 
our culture and evolving it to better position 
Macmahon for long-term success. This review, 
which involved 40 leaders across the business, in 
a three-day workshop held during late May 2022, 
resulted in the creation of the WAM formula. This 
formula, developed by our leaders, has three 
key elements being; the Macmahon Winning 
Statement, Macmahon Winning Equation (MWE) 
and Macmahon Winning Values. The MWE focusses 
on people, values and performance to drive 
success. The WAM formula is being launched to 
our workforce during the first quarter of FY23 
and the program includes evolving our values to 
develop culture in a way that enhances employee 
engagement, and commitment to high performance 
which will contribute to delivering long-term 
success. I look forward to providing further updates 
on WAM as we progress through FY23.

Macmahon has an agile and flexible workforce, and 
this was demonstrated late in the fiscal year when 
Dacian Gold suspended mining at Mt Morgans. We 
have already redeployed all Macmahon employees 
previously at Mt Morgans to other sites the 
Company operates at.

13

CAPITAL DISCIPLINE AND  
STRONG CASH CONVERSION
Following recent years of large growth capital 
investment, Macmahon is focussed on delivering 
improved underlying EBIT(A), high underlying 
EDITDA cash conversion and sufficient free cash 
flow generation to maintain a strong balance sheet. 
We have also enhanced our liquidity position with 
extension to tenure and upsizing of our syndicated 
debt facility (SFA) as you will read below, and our 
disciplined capital management focus has elevated 
Return on Average Capital Employed as a key metric. 

Macmahon has recently successfully increased its 
$170 million SFA to $200 million, and extended 
the maturity by more than three years at reduced 
interest rate margins. We have a very robust 
available liquidity of $255.8 million at year-end 
which provides optionality to support the delivery 
of our strategy.

We achieved strong EBITDA cash conversion 
of 92.6%, and our gearing and EBITDA leverage 
ratio stood at 27.8% and 0.74, respectively, 
both an improvement on our H1 FY22 results. 
This performance is noteworthy given the 
macroeconomic environment difficulties navigated 
during the second half of the fiscal year. 

Pleasingly, the strong EBITDA cash conversion 
in FY22 enabled the funding of growth capex, 
payment of dividends, and delivery of a healthy 
financial position. Together with the increased  
SFA which was announced to the market on  
28 July 2022, this provides us with the flexibility  
to pursue suitable opportunities and execute on  
the Company’s strategy.

STRATEGY
We advanced our strategy during FY22 by 
continuing to diversify our business mix; 
predominately growing our mining support  
services and underground divisions.

On this front, we made some significant progress  
in the year, including: 

•  The underground division increasing its 
contribution to 25% of group revenue. 

•  Continuing to ramp up positively at the major 
King of the Hills and Gwalia underground 
projects. 

•  Progress on expanding our civil offering 

into Western Australia, including for Calidus 
Resources at Warrawoona and Northern Star 
Resources at Fimiston as mentioned earlier in 
this report.

•  Formally entering into a Teaming arrangement 
with a Party that has a complementary skill 
set and Partnering arrangements with parties 
that have complementary skill sets that will 
accelerate our growth in mining support 
services and enable us to secure larger scale 
projects on acceptable commercial terms.

In addition to the diversification of our business 
mix, Macmahon’s technological roadmap is 
evolving in order to further boost the Company’s 
operational efficiency and broader sustainability. 
This includes progressing the deployment of our 
business intelligence systems in both underground 
and surface mining; notably both solutions use 
advanced data and mine digitisation technologies 
with the capacity to expand the offering in coming 
years dependent on client priorities. 

In FY22, Macmahon welcomed new executives 
who bolster the diversity, breadth and depth of 
capabilities among our leadership group. This 
encompassed Ursula Lummis being promoted to 
Chief Financial Officer, the appointment of Donald 
James as Chief Commercial Officer, and Richard 
McLeod joining as Chief Operating Officer. 

Our refreshed leadership team, consistent with 
our evolving strategy, is increasing its focus 
on improvement in Return on Average Capital 
Employed as a key performance metric, optimising 
gearing to strengthen our balance sheet, and 
targeting lower capital intensity growth to better 
leverage our balance sheet capacity. Delivering 
operationally for our clients and respectfully 
partnering to deliver fair financial returns is 
foundational to delivering on these outcomes.

Macmahon Annual Report 2022Macmahon’s commitment to the safe and efficient 
execution of its order book positions the business 
well to navigate current and emerging challenges 
and capitalise on meaningful strategically aligned 
opportunities ahead. 

CONCLUSION
To conclude, I would like to thank the Board  
and our stakeholders for their ongoing support, 
including our clients for their shared approach to 
supporting and protecting the health and wellbeing 
of our people. I would also like to commend our 
people for their crucial contribution and resilience 
over the year.

MICHAEL FINNEGAN
Managing Director and  
Chief Executive Officer

This pragmatic strategy and focus will create a 
stronger, more sustainable business and, most 
importantly, support our core objective of delivering 
higher quality investment returns for shareholders. 

OUTLOOK
Macmahon is anticipating another positive year in 
FY23, underpinned by a $5.0 billion order book 
comprised of an increasingly diverse mix of  
surface, underground and mining support service 
contracts, with a significant concentration of 
alliance contracts that provide greater operational 
and commercial flexibility. 

On a macroeconomic level, the tight labour market 
across Australia and global inflationary pressures 
are key issues and these challenges are being 
managed by the business. As previously mentioned, 
we grew our workforce during FY22 and have 
already successfully implemented significant 
training, upskilling and wellbeing programs to 
facilitate the longer-term retention of employees. 
Our focus and investment on our people will 
continue as we move forward.

We have a strong pipeline of highly filtered 
strategically and operationally aligned opportunities 
worth approximately $8.4 billion, in addition to 
numerous contract extensions we are targeting. 

The Company's solid financial position at FY22  
year-end will support the capital investment for 
future Batu Hijau Phase 8 expansion and contract 
wins. Continuing contracts are expected to 
consolidate FY22 performance, deliver earnings 
growth, and improve ROACE in FY23. Our capital 
management discipline will also support maintaining 
a strong balance sheet.

Macmahon Annual Report 2022PROFIT AND LOSS 
Macmahon delivered revenue and earnings growth 
in line with its publicly stated guidance. Revenue 
for the Group increased by 25.6% to $1.7 billion. 
This increase was largely attributed to growth with 
the ramp up of existing projects (Gwalia, Julius and 
Foxleigh) and commencement of new projects 
(Dawson South, Fimiston, King of the Hills and 
Warrawoona), along with the organic growth in 
existing projects.

Underlying earnings before interest, tax, customer  
contracts amortisation and other one-off items  
(EBIT(A)) for FY22 increased by 4.7% to $100.8 
million (30 June 2021: $96.3 million). Similarly, 
underlying earnings before interest, tax, 
depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased 
by 16.6% over the year to $291.4 million. 

Depreciation (excluding amortisation on customer 
contracts) and Net Finance Costs
Depreciation (excluding customer contract 
amortisation) and net finance costs for the year  
increased from $153.6 million and $14.6 million 
respectively to $190.6 million and $19.0 million.  
This was consistent with the growth in property, 
plant and equipment required for new projects  
over the period.

Tax
The Group reported a tax expense of $18.7 million. 
The effective tax rate of 40.6% primarily resulted 
from the one-off non-deductible earn out expense. 

Excluding the impact of the non-deductible 
expense, the effective tax rate would have  
been 27.5%.

BALANCE SHEET
Net assets increased from $535.9 million to  
$559.5 million at 30 June 2022. Total assets and 
total liabilities increased by $194.8 million and 
$171.2 million, respectively, primarily due to the 
commencement of new projects. 

The Group’s net tangible assets (NTA) increased by 
6.0% to $543.5 million at 30 June 2022 (30 June 
2021: $512.8 million). As a result, NTA per share 
increased from 23.8 cents per share to 25.2 cents 
per share.

Working Capital
Investment in net working capital increased by 
$19.7 million during the period primarily due to the 
commencement of new projects and increased 
inventory for critical items to proactively manage 
COVID related supply chain pressures. Current 
trade and other receivables and inventory increased 
from $246.9 million and $68.5 million respectively 
to $299.0 million and $89.9 million at 30 June 2022. 
The current trade and other payables at 30 June 
2022 of $272.4 million, increased from prior year  
of $218.5 million. 

Net Debt
At 30 June 2022, cash on hand totalled $198.0 
million (30 June 2021: $182.1 million) offset by 
borrowings of $413.5 million (30 June 2021:  
$312.4 million) resulting in net debt at 30 June 2022 
of $215.5 million equating to gearing of 27.8%. Net 
debt to EBITDA for 30 June 2022 was 0.74 times.

The increase in net debt of $85.2 million was 
primarily due to the purchase of plant and 
equipment together with increased working capital 
to support new and existing projects, increased 
inventory of critical items and the earn out  
payment for the GBF acquisition, offset partially  
by generation of positive operating cash flows.

As at 30 June 2022, cash and unutilised working 
capital facilities totalled $255.8 million (30 June 
2021: $287.7 million).

25

CASH FLOW
Operating cash flow (excluding interest, tax, 
acquisition and SaaS customisation costs) for 
the year ended 30 June 2022 was $269.8 (FY21: 
$269.0 million), representing a conversion rate from 
underlying EBITDA of 92.6%. Cash conversion was 
impacted by the increase in working capital relating 
to the commencement of new projects and higher 
inventory levels to mitigate COVID related supply 
chain disruptions.

Capital Expenditure
Capital expenditure for property, plant and 
equipment for the year totalled $279.0 million, 
comprising $120.2 million acquired through  
finance leases, and $158.8 million funded in cash. 

 DIVIDEND 
The Board has approved the payment of a final 
dividend of 0.35 cents per share for FY22. This 
equates to a total dividend declared for FY22  
of 0.65 cents per share.

Macmahon Annual Report 202227

RISK MANAGEMENT

Macmahon defines risk management as the identification, assessment 
and management of risks that have the potential to materially impact 
on its operations, people, reputation, and financial results.  

Given the breadth of operations, the geographies 
and markets in which the Group operates, a 
wide range of risk factors have the potential to 
impact Macmahon. While Macmahon attempts to 
mitigate and manage risks where it is efficient and 
practicable to do so, there is no guarantee these 
efforts will be successful.

Outlined below is an overview of a number of 
material risks facing Macmahon. These risks are not 
set out in any particular order and do not comprise 
every risk that Macmahon could encounter when 
conducting its business. Rather, they are the most 
significant risks that, in the opinion of the Board, 
should be considered and monitored by both 
existing shareholders and potential shareholders  
in the Company.

COVID-19 RISK
The global economy has been enduring the 
COVID-19 pandemic in recent years. Whilst 
restrictions on travel and border closures have 
eased recently, it continues to negatively disrupt 
trade and various industries including mining, 
supply chains, workforce absenteeism and also 
continues to create significant uncertainty for  
the business, domestic economies and the  
global economy. 

The health pandemic continues to affect many 
countries, and while vaccine rates are improving, 
periodic lockdowns and/or restrictions on 
movement may be reinstated which can affect  
key markets in which Macmahon operates.

Although the pandemic risks have abated in recent 
months, there is a material risk that an increase 
in severity of these health and safety concerns to 
our workforce and across the globe could have a 
material impact on the group in the future. Should 
the pandemic severity ease, that may present 
upside opportunity to the business mainly  
through reduced workforce absenteeism and 
productivity benefits.

GUIDANCE
Macmahon provides forecasts and predictions 
about its future performance (“Guidance”) on 
the basis of several assumptions which may 
subsequently prove to be incorrect. 

Guidance is not a guarantee of future performance, 
and is subject to known and unknown risks, many of 
which are beyond the control of Macmahon.

Key identified risks that may result in Macmahon not 
meeting its Guidance include, but are not limited to, 
termination of key contracts, variability in cost and 
productivity assumptions, and inability to recover 
claims and variations from clients.

Macmahon’s actual results may differ materially 
from its Guidance and the assumptions on which 
the Guidance is based.

CLIMATE CHANGE
Macmahon recognises the physical and non-
physical impacts of climate change. Risks related 
to the physical impacts of climate change include 
increased incidence and severity of extreme 
weather events that could disrupt mining operations 
and impact the health and safety of our workforce. 
Non-physical risks arise from a variety of policy, 
regulatory, legal, financing and investor responses 
to the challenges posed by climate change and the 
transition to a lower-carbon economy. Companies 
that do not take action on climate change risk 
reputational damage. Macmahon will seek continual 
improvements in energy efficiency across the 
business to understand and reduce the carbon 
intensity of operations.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES 
Macmahon is exposed to a number of contingent 
liabilities, including those described in the notes to 
the Annual Report.

The Guidance provided by Macmahon will be 
negatively impacted if those contingent liabilities 
that are currently unquantified crystallise into  
actual liabilities.

28

Macmahon Annual Report 2022RELIANCE ON KEY CUSTOMERS
Macmahon’s business relies on a number of 
individual contracts and business alliances and 
Macmahon derives a significant proportion of its 
revenue from a small number of key long-term 
customers and business relationships with a 
few organisations. In the event that any of these 
customers fails to pay, reduces production or 
scales back operations, terminates the relationship, 
defaults on a contract or fails to renew their 
contract with Macmahon, this may have an adverse 
impact on the financial performance and/or 
financial position of Macmahon.

INDUSTRY AND COMMODITY CYCLES
Macmahon’s financial performance is influenced 
by the level of activity in the resources and mining 
industry, which is impacted by a number of factors 
beyond the control of Macmahon. This includes: 

•  Demand for mining production, which may 
be influenced by factors including (but not 
limited to) prices of commodities, exchange 
rates and the competitiveness of Australian and 
Indonesian mining operations. 

•  Government policy on infrastructure spending. 
•  The policies of mine owners including their 
decisions to undertake their own mining 
operations or to outsource these functions.

•  The availability and cost of key resources 

including people, large earth moving equipment 
and critical consumables. 

Macmahon is indirectly exposed to movements 
in commodity prices, which can be volatile and 
beyond Macmahon’s control. 

Adverse movements in commodity prices may 
reduce the pipeline of work in the mining sector and 
the level of demand for the services of Macmahon’s 
mining business, which could have a material 
impact on Macmahon’s operating and financial 
performance.

FAILURE TO WIN NEW CONTRACTS
Macmahon’s performance is impacted by its 
ability to win, extend and complete new contracts. 
Any failure by Macmahon to continue to win new 
contracts will impact its financial performance  
and position.

Macmahon expects to continue to have a broad 
range of competitors across all of its operations, 
which impacts the margins obtainable on contracts. 
There is a risk that existing and increased future 
competition may limit the ability to win new 
contracts or achieve attractive margins.

EARLY CONTRACT TERMINATION AND 
CONTRACT VARIATIONS
Guidance is partly based on current contracts 
in hand and Macmahon derives a significant 
proportion of its revenue from providing services 
under large contracts. A client could terminate 
services on short term notice and as a result, 
there can be no assurance that work in hand will 
be realised as revenue in any future period. There 
could be future risks and costs arising from any 
termination of contract.

Early termination or failure to renew a contract  
by Macmahon’s clients when that renewal is 
expected is likely to have an adverse effect on 
financial performance. 

While Macmahon has no reason to believe any 
existing or potential contracts will be terminated, 
there can be no assurance that this will not occur. 

Due to the nature of Macmahon’s business, there 
is also a risk that Macmahon’s claims for contract 
variations are disputed and not ultimately agreed 
or are insufficiently certain at a point in time such 
that they cannot be brought to account in a given 
accounting period.

29

PROJECT DELIVERY RISK
Execution and delivery of projects involves 
judgement regarding the planning, development 
and operation of complex operating facilities and 
equipment. As a result, Macmahon’s operations, 
cash flows and liquidity could be affected if the 
resources or time needed to complete a project 
are miscalculated, if it fails to meet contractual 
obligations, or if it encounters delays or  
unspecified conditions.

MARGINS, OPERATIONS, SAFETY  
AND ENVIRONMENT
Cost overruns, unfavourable contract outcomes, 
serious or continued operational failure, adverse 
industrial relations outcomes, disruption at 
key facilities, disruptions to information and 
communication systems or a safety incident have 
the potential to have an adverse financial impact. 

Macmahon is also exposed to input costs through 
its operations, such as the cost of fuel and energy 
sources, equipment and personnel. To the extent 
that these costs cannot be passed on to customers 
in a timely manner, or at all, Macmahon’s financial 
performance could be adversely affected. 

Macmahon’s operations involve risk to personnel 
and property. An accident may occur that results 
in serious injury or death, damage to property and 
environment, which may have an adverse effect on 
Macmahon’s financial performance, and reputation 
and ability to win new contracts.

CONTRACT PRICING RISK
If Macmahon materially underestimates the cost of 
providing services, equipment, or plant, there is a 
risk of a negative impact on Macmahon’s financial 
performance.

PRICE INFLATION
Macmahon procures goods and services that are 
critical to business operations from a range of 
suppliers. Cost increases, or price inflation, can 
occur in respect of goods and services over a 
certain time period for a range of reasons including 
strong demand and supply shortages, the cost 
of inputs to the production process increasing 
(including labour related wages and salaries), and 
supply related logistics disruption. The rate of these 
price increases can be material and if Macmahon 
does not recover price inflation from its clients, 
there is a risk of negative impact on Macmahon’s 
financial performance.  

COMMODITY PRICE EXPOSURE
Gold and copper are the two most important 
commodities contributing to Macmahon’s order 
book and tender pipeline. If the gold and copper 
industries were to suffer, it would have a material 
adverse effect on Macmahon revenues and 
profitability.

EQUIPMENT AND CONSUMABLE AVAILABILITY
Macmahon has a significant fleet of equipment 
and has a substantial ongoing requirement for 
consumables including tyres, parts and lubricants. 
If Macmahon cannot secure a reliable supply of 
equipment, parts and/or consumables, there is a 
risk that its operational and financial performance 
may be adversely affected.

KEY PERSONNEL
Macmahon’s growth and profitability may be 
limited by loss of key operating personnel, inability 
to recruit and retain skilled and experienced 
employees or by increases in compensation costs. 

The growth of activity in the mining sector has 
increased demand for quality resources, creating a 
tightening market and upward pressures to secure 
skilled mining leaders, professionals and personnel.

CURRENCY FLUCTUATION
Macmahon is exposed to fluctuations in the value 
of the Australian dollar versus other currencies 
due to international operations and Macmahon’s 
consolidated results are reported in Australian 
dollars. If Macmahon generates sales or earnings 
or has assets and liabilities in other currencies, 
the translation into Australian dollars for financial 
reporting purposes could result in a significant 
increase or decrease in the amount of those sales or 
earnings and net assets.

PARTNER AND CONTROL RISK
Macmahon may undertake services through and 
participate in joint ventures or partnering/alliance 
arrangements. The success of these partnering 
activities depends on satisfactory operating and 
financial performance by Macmahon’s partners. The 
failure of partners to meet performance obligations 
could impose additional financial and performance 
obligations that could cause significant impact 
on Macmahon’s reputation and financial results, 
including loss or termination of the contract and 
loss of profits. 

30

Macmahon Annual Report 2022AMC (which is a related party of AMNT) is the 
largest shareholder of Macmahon with a 44.3% 
shareholding, giving AMC significant influence 
over Macmahon, with the ability to block special 
resolutions of shareholders and potentially to pass 
or block ordinary resolutions. AMC’s interests as 
a shareholder of Macmahon may differ from the 
interests of other shareholders, and the existence 
of this shareholding (together with other major 
shareholdings) may reduce the prospects of persons  
making takeover bids for Macmahon in the future.

COUNTRY RISK
While Macmahon has significant operations 
in Australia, it has large project operations in 
Indonesia. Macmahon also has contracts in Malaysia 
and South Africa from time to time. The sovereign 
risk in these countries is higher than in Australia. 

Operating in international markets can expose 
Macmahon to additional adverse economic 
conditions, civil unrest, conflicts, terrorism, security 
breaches, bribery and corrupt practices. 

Some countries in which Macmahon operates, or 
may operate in the future, have less developed 
legal, regulatory or political systems than in 
Australia, which may be subject to unexpected or 
sudden change or in which it may be more difficult 
to enforce legal rights. 

The financial performance and position of 
Macmahon’s foreign operations may be adversely 
affected by changes in the fiscal or regulatory 
regimes applying in the relevant jurisdictions, 
changes in, or difficulties in interpreting and 
complying with local laws and regulations of 
different countries (including tax, labour, foreign 
investment law) and nullification, modification or 
renegotiation of, or difficulties or delays in enforcing 
contracts with clients or joint venture partners that 
are subject to the offshore local law(s).

FINANCING RISK
Macmahon has financing facilities with external 
financiers. A default under any of these facilities 
could result in withdrawal of financial support or an 
increase in the cost of financing.

CYBER SECURITY
The potential for cyber security attacks, misuse 
and release of sensitive information pose ongoing 
and real risks. During FY21, Macmahon conducted 
a cyber security maturity assessment and 
vulnerability scan, and commenced a three-year 
cyber security improvement plan in FY22.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT
Macmahon has a large and geographically spread 
workforce where workplace sexual harassment 
and other forms of reportable conduct present 
as an ongoing and real risk. During FY22, 
Macmahon participated in a WA parliamentary 
inquiry into sexual harassment against women 
in the FIFO mining industry and has reinforced 
our commitment, backed by tangible actions, to 
minimise sexual harassment and other reportable 
conduct in the workplace. Failure to provide our 
workforce with a safe working environment has 
the potential for reputational damage with a 
consequential inability to attract and retain  
a workforce and/or clients which would have  
negative impact to Macmahon’s operational  
and financial performance.

OTHER MATERIAL RISKS THAT COULD AFFECT 
MACMAHON INCLUDE:
•  A major operational failure or disruption at key 
facilities or to communication systems which 
interrupt Macmahon’s business.

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

•  Loss of reputation through poor project 

outcomes, unsafe work practices, unethical 
business practices, and not meeting the market’s 
expectation of our financial performance.
•  Foreign exchange rates and interest rates in  

the ordinary course of business.

•  Loss of key Board, management or operational 

personnel.

Sustainability

The Materiality Assessment carried out last year allowed  
Macmahon to consider various sustainability topics within  
their operations, leading to further planning and review. 

We are continuing to review Macmahon’s overall 
approach to sustainability and expanding this 
into the company wide Sustainability Framework, 
which will describe our key focus areas and the 
commitments under each. 

of environmental aspects – from the usage of fossil 
fuels and greenhouse gas emissions to waste, 
water and rehabilitation. The data collated from 
the Baseline Project will provide crucial information 
for the Macmahon Sustainability Framework.

In engaging with the Executive Leadership Team, 
the initial key focus areas are mental health and 
wellbeing, diversity and inclusion, biodiversity  
and climate change. 

In parallel to expanding the Sustainability 
Framework, we have commenced a Baseline 
Environmental Footprint program to calculate our 
baseline footprint for the company across a range 

The program will set the foundation for further 
environmental and sustainability stewardship. The

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

For the year ended 30 June 2022, the Group 
reported increases in revenue, underlying EBIT(A) 
and EBITDA. This was driven by organic growth 
and the commencement of new projects (Dawson 
South, Fimiston, King of the Hills and Warrawoona). 

Reported NPAT for the year decreased primarily 
due to one-off expenses, being the GBF 
acquisition earn out, Software as a Service (SaaS) 
customisation costs and amortisation of customer 
contracts recognised on acquisition. 

A review of and information about the operations of 
the Group during FY22 is contained on pages 16 to 
26, which form part of this Director’s Report.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN  
THE STATE OF AFFAIRS
In the opinion of the Directors, there were no 
significant changes in the state of affairs of the 
Group that occurred during the financial year under 
review. 

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND  
EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Likely developments in the operations of the Group 
in future financial years and the expected results 
of those operations have been included generally 
within the annual report.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
The Group is not subject to any significant 
environmental regulation under Australian 
Commonwealth or State law.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)
The audited remuneration report is set out on pages 
50 to 65 and forms part of this Directors’ Report.

INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS
The Company has indemnified the Directors and 
Executives of the Company for costs incurred, in 
their capacity as a Director or Executive, for which 
they may be held personally liable, except where 
there is a lack of good faith.

For the year ended 30 June 2022, the Company 
paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure 
the Directors and Executives of the Company 
against a liability to the extent permitted by the 
Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance 
prohibits disclosure of the nature of liability and the 
amount of the premium.

INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE OF AUDITOR
The Company has not, during or since the financial 
year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor 
of the Company or any related entity against a 
liability incurred by the auditor.

During FY22, the Company has not paid a premium 
in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the 
Company or any related entity.

47

PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF  
OF THE PARENT ENTITY
No person has applied to the Court under section 
237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to 
bring proceedings on behalf of the Company, or to 
intervene in any proceedings to which the Company 
is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility 
on behalf of the Company for all or part of those 
proceedings.

ROUNDING OF AMOUNTS
The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC 
Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ 
Reports) Instrument 2016/191, issued by the 
Australian Securities and Investments Commission, 
relating to “rounding-off”. Amounts in this report 
have been rounded off in accordance with that 
Class Order to the nearest thousand dollars, or in 
certain cases, the nearest dollar.

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration 
as required under section 307C of the Corporations 
Act 2001 is set out on page 49.

AUDITOR
KPMG continues in office in accordance with 
section 327 of the Corporations Act 2001.

This report is made in accordance with a resolution 
of Directors, pursuant to section 298(2)(a) of the 
Corporations Act 2001.

EVA SKIRA, AM

Perth

NON-AUDIT SERVICES
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the 
auditor for non-audit services provided during the 
financial year by the auditor are outlined in note 28 
to the consolidated financial statements.

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

The Directors are of the opinion that the services 
as disclosed in note 28 to the consolidated financial 
statements do not compromise the external 
auditor’s independence requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:

•  All non-audit services have been reviewed and 

approved to ensure that they do not impact the 
integrity and objectivity of the auditor.

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

Macmahon Annual Report 202251

1  EXECUTIVE REMUNERATION 
1.1  Overview
The Company’s approach to remuneration is to compensate employees in a way that is cost effective and 
appropriate for current industry conditions, but also sufficient to attract, retain and incentivise the calibre 
of personnel needed to effectively manage the Group’s business. To this end, the remuneration packages 
offered to senior executives have three components:

•  Market competitive fixed remuneration.
•  A short-term incentive opportunity, or the opportunity to earn a cash bonus dependent on performance 

over an annual period.

•  A long-term incentive opportunity, or the opportunity to earn Macmahon shares dependent on 

performance over multiple years.

The targeted remuneration mix for executive KMP for the year ended 30 June 2022 is outlined below:

Michael Finnegan 
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Managing Director

Ursula Lummis1 
Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

Richard McLeod2 
Chief Operating Officer (COO) 

Donald James3 
Chief Commercial Officer (CCO)

the remuneration table and includes the FY22 expense for performance rights granted in previous years.

Mrs Lummis commenced as CFO on 1 November 2021 and for FY22 was not awarded a LTI subsequent to being appointed.
2  Mr McLeod was appointed as COO on 21 March 2022 and for FY22 was not awarded a LTI subsequent to being appointed.
3  Mr James was appointed as CCO on 1 February 2022 and for FY22 was not awarded a LTI subsequent to being appointed
For FY23, Mrs Lummis, Mr McLeod and Mr James are eligible to participate in the LTI.

1.2  Fixed remuneration
The fixed remuneration paid to executive KMP is based on the size and scope of their role, knowledge and 
experience, market benchmarks for that role, and to some extent the Group’s financial circumstances. Fixed 
remuneration comprises base salary, any applicable role specific allowances, and superannuation. 

Remuneration levels are reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee through a process that considers 
individual and overall performance of the Group. In addition, external advisors and industry surveys may be 
used to ensure the KMP’s remuneration is competitive with the market and relevant industry peers. 

During the year, benchmarking was completed by Align Advisors for the CEO’s and other KMP’s 
remuneration. Based on the results of the market benchmarking review, a remuneration increase of 29% was 
provided to the CEO from 1 July 2021. This increase was appropriate to bring the CEO into line with relevant 
comparator companies after significant growth in the size and complexity of the Company. 

52

Macmahon Annual Report 20221.3  FY22 Short term incentive (“STI”)
During FY22, the STI opportunity provided to executive KMP had the following features:

Description

Performance 
measures and 
weighting

KMP are eligible to participate in the annual STI plan, which comprises a portion of their variable 
remuneration and is subject to performance measures.

A combination of specific Group KPI’s are chosen to reflect the core drivers of short-term performance 
and to provide a framework for delivering sustainable value to the Group and its shareholders.

The following KPI was chosen for the 2022 financial year:

•  EBIT(A) (100%)

Reduced by the following negative modifiers:

•  Return on Average Capital Employed (ROACE) (25%)
•  Safety performance (10%)
•  Growth/order book (15%)

The STI was structured to commence upon achievement of the Company’s publicly stated EBIT(A) 
guidance (gateway), and to increase in line with any additional EBIT(A), up to a cap.

Reasons for using 
these targets

The KPI and negative modifiers were chosen to reflect the core drivers of short-term performance and  
to provide a framework for delivering sustainable value to the group and its shareholders.

Performance period

Performance against the STI targets relate to the period from 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022. 

Form of payment 
and timing of 
payment

The STI award is determined after the end of the financial year following a review of performance over 
the year against the STI performance measures by the Remuneration Committee. The Board approves 
the final STI award based on this assessment of performance after which the STI is paid in cash. 

Executive claw back

The after-tax STI payment to executive KMP may be claimed back by the Company at any time up to 
two years after payment in the event of:

(a)   A restatement of the Group’s financial results (other than a restatement caused by a change in 

applicable accounting standards or interpretations), the result of which is that any STI awarded to 
the KMP would have been a lower amount had it been calculated based on such restated results.

(b)  Fraudulent, dishonest or other improper conduct of the executive KMP.

Board discretion

The Board has the right to modify, reduce or remove the STI opportunity at any time, including if there  
is a fatality.

Potential bonus awards
The table below shows the potential bonus awards, as a percentage of total fixed remuneration (“TFR”), 
available to the executive KMPs under the FY22 STI Plan.

Performance level

Threshold 
(lower end of guidance range

1.4  Long term incentive (LTI)
At the discretion of the Board, the Company provides a LTI opportunity to executive KMP through the grant 
of performance rights. These performance rights can vest into fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, for 
no consideration, subject to meeting a performance condition and a continued employment condition. The 
purpose of this LTI opportunity is to incentivise executive KMP to deliver sustained increases in shareholder 
value over the long-term.

Performance condition
The vesting of performance rights granted on 1 July 2021 are subject to the following vesting conditions 
weighted at 50% each:

•  Absolute total shareholder return (TSR) over a 3-year performance and service period.
•  Strategic objectives subject to the measurement period below and a 3-year service period:

 – Year 1  Safety (4%); business mix (14%)
 – Year 2  People (4%); business mix (14%)
 – Year 3  Business mix (14%)

For the purposes of calculating TSR, the starting share price is based on the volume weighted average price 
(VWAP) over the 30 calendar days prior to the first day of the performance period, and the closing share 
price is based on the VWAP over the 30 calendar days up to and including the final day of the performance 
period.

For performance rights issued during FY22, the portion of each grant of rights eligible to vest at various 
levels of increase in Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) TSR is: 

Company’s TSR performance  
over the performance period

Proportion of performance rights that are eligible  
to vest at the end of the performance period

Less than 10% CAGR TSR growth

0% 

Between 10% and < 15% CAGR TSR growth 

50%, plus a straight-line increase in % award until 15% TSR is achieved

At 15% CAGR TSR growth and above

100% 

Continued employment condition
Performance rights lapse if a holder ceases employment before the rights vest unless the Board, in its 
absolute discretion, determines otherwise. There is no vesting of performance rights based solely on 
continued employment. 

Change of control
If a change of control occurs or if the Company is wound up or delisted, the Board may (in its absolute 
discretion) determine that all or a portion of the performance rights on issue will vest, notwithstanding the 
time restrictions or performance conditions applicable to the performance rights. 

Testing of the performance condition
Performance rights are tested for vesting only once at the end of the performance period. That is, there is 
no re-testing of performance rights.

54

Macmahon Annual Report 2022Dividends and voting rights
Performance rights do not have dividend or voting rights. However, the shares allocated upon vesting of 
performance rights rank equally with other ordinary shares on issue.

Restriction on disposal of shares
The shares allocated to performance rights holders upon the vesting of those rights are initially held in a 
trust and are subject to disposal restrictions in line with the Company’s Trading in Shares Policy.

Performance rights granted in FY22
The number of performance rights granted to participants in the LTI Plan is generally at the discretion  
of the Board.

During FY22 a total of 7,805,941 performance rights were granted to current executive KMP. Refer to table 
6.3 for further details of performance rights granted during the year. 

In addition to the performance rights listed above the Company granted performance rights to other 
senior employees of the Group subject to a three-year performance period and continued employment. 
Details of all performance rights issued by the Company are set out in note 27 to the consolidated financial 
statements included in this Annual Report. 

1.5  Statutory performance indicators (including variable remuneration measures)
The table below shows measures of the Group’s financial performance over the past five years as required 
by the Corporations Act 2001. However, these measures are not all consistent with the measures used in 
determining the variable amounts of remuneration to be awarded to executive KMP. Consequently, there 
may not always be a direct correlation between statutory key performance measures and the variable 
remuneration awarded to executive KMP.

Cash remuneration includes salary, committee fees and superannuation.

1 
2  Mr Vella resigned on 21 October 2021.

The maximum aggregate amount that can be paid to Non-Executive Directors is $1,300,000 per annum, 
including superannuation (the Fee Pool). The fee pool was increased at the 2021 Annual General Meeting. 

Non-Executive Directors have the option to sacrifice a percentage of their fixed remuneration for share rights.

Share rights
A Non-Executive Director Salary Sacrifice Plan (NED SSP) was initiated by the Company during FY19, 
pursuant to which Non-Executive Directors may elect to sacrifice all or a portion of their annual pre-tax  
directors’ fees and committee fees (excluding superannuation) in the form of share rights. Vesting is 
contingent on the Non-Executive Director remaining continuously engaged by the Company as a  
Non-Executive Director. Share rights were granted in two tranches on 1 July 2021 (50% vesting on the 
day after the release of Macmahon’s half-year results and 50% vesting on the day after the release of 
Macmahon’s full-year results). The share rights may be cash settled at the request of the Non-Executive 
Director prior to vesting.

For additional information on restrictions or failure to vest, refer to the ASX announcement, dated 5 July 2018.  

In accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, as the share rights provide an option over equity, they 
have been fair valued as of their grant dates. Details of the share rights are provided in section 6. 

3  REMUNERATION GOVERNANCE
The Board oversees the remuneration arrangements of the Company. In performing this function, the Board 
is assisted by input and recommendations from the Remuneration Committee (“the Committee”), external 
consultants and internal advice. The Committee is responsible for the overview, and recommendation to 
the Board, of remuneration arrangements for Non-Executive Directors and executive KMP. The CEO and 
Managing Director, in consultation with the Board, sets remuneration arrangements for other executive 
KMP. No employee is directly involved in deciding their own remuneration, including the CEO. 

Further details of the role and function of the Committee are set out in the Remuneration Committee 
Charter on the Company’s website at www.macmahon.com.au.

The Committee obtains advice and market remuneration data from external remuneration advisors as 
required. When advice and market remuneration data is obtained, the Committee follows protocols 
regarding the engagement and use of external remuneration consultants to ensure ongoing compliance 
with executive remuneration legislation. These protocols ensure that any remuneration recommendation 
from an external consultant is free from undue influence by any member of the Company’s executive KMP 
to whom it relates.

57

The protocols for any external consultant providing remuneration recommendations prohibit them 
from providing advice or recommendations to executive KMP or Non-Executive Directors before 
recommendations are given to the Committee. These arrangements were implemented to ensure that 
any external party will be able to carry out its work, including information capture and formation of its 
recommendations, free from undue influence by the individuals to whom they relate.

In FY22, the Company engaged Align Advisors to provide benchmarking information about market 
remuneration levels for the CEO and other KMP respectively in a peer group of ASX listed companies.  
This information was not a remuneration recommendation as defined by the Act, however, was considered 
by the Board in the FY22 remuneration review process.

The Board is satisfied that the remuneration benchmarking data provided by Align Advisors was free from 
undue influence by employees of Macmahon.  

4  VALUE PROVIDED TO KMP
4.1  Statutory remuneration for the year ended 30 June 2022
Details of the nature and value of each major element of remuneration provided to executive KMP of the 
Company during FY22 are set out in the table below. In this table, the value of share based payments has 
been calculated in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.

Fixed remuneration includes base salaries received and payments made to superannuation funds.
The STI paid includes the FY21 STI payment settled in FY22. The FY22 STI has not been paid in FY22.
Allowances include the living away from home allowance.

4  Mrs Lummis commenced as CFO on 1 November 2021. Remuneration is shown from this date.
5  Mr McLeod was appointed as COO on 21 March 2022.
6  Mr James was appointed as CCO on 1 February 2022. 
7  Mr Pollard resigned as CFO effective 1 November 2021. Remuneration is shown to this date.
8  Mr Gettingby resigned as CDO effective 22 January 2022.
9  Mr O’Hehir resigned as COO effective 28 February 2022.

The amounts disclosed above are not the same as remuneration expensed in relation to each KMP in 
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (see Table 4.1 above). 

Nevertheless, the directors believe that remuneration received is relevant information for the following reasons:

•  The statutory remuneration expense for performance rights is based on fair value determined at grant 
date for all unvested rights and does not reflect the fair value of the rights vested and actually received 
by the KMPs during the year.

•  The statutory remuneration shows benefits before they are actually received by the KMPs (deferral and 

claw back of STI payments).

•  Where performance rights do not vest because a market-based performance condition is not satisfied 

(e.g. absolute TSR), the Company must still recognize the full amount of expenses even though the KMPs 
will never receive any benefits.

The accuracy of information in this section has been audited together with the rest of the remuneration report.

Share rights are issued under the NED SSP and are not in addition to their fixed remuneration.  
In accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, as the share rights granted includes an “option” over ordinary shares, 
the option element is required to be fair valued at grant date.  The fair value per share is $0.005 for Tranche 1 and $0.009 for 
Tranche 2.

Rights were granted on 1 July 2021, prior to the commencement of the current CFO, COO and CCO.

Rights will expire on the earlier of the termination of the individual’s employment or the day after they are 
tested by the Board against the vesting condition and found not to satisfy that condition. In addition to 
a continuing performance condition, vesting is conditional on the extent to which the Company achieves 
increases in absolute TSR over the performance period.

1  OPERATING SEGMENTS

Identification of reportable operating segments
The Group has identified its reportable segments based on the internal reporting, which is reviewed and 
used by the Chief Executive Officer (the Chief Operating Decision Maker) in assessing the performance  
and in determining the allocation of resources between business units.

Management have identified three operating segments; Surface Mining, Underground Mining and 
International Mining. These segments have been aggregated into “Mining” due to all segments exhibiting 
similar economic characteristics regarding the nature of the products and services, production processes, 
type or class of customers and methods used in rendering their services.

The following describes the operations of each reportable segment:

Mining
The Group provides a broad range of mining services, which includes surface and underground mining,  
civil and rehabilitation services, equipment maintenance, rentals and management.

Financial performance is measured with reference to underlying earnings before interest, tax and customer 
amortisation (EBIT(A)), as included in internal reporting reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, and is 
measured consistently with profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Segment EBIT(A) is used 
to measure financial performance, as management believes that such information is the most relevant in 
evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries.  
The financial performance of each reportable segment is set out below:

Major customers
The revenue information above is based on the location of customers. Revenue from three projects related 
to three customers, individually greater than 10%, amounted to $659.811 million (2021: four projects related 
to four customers for $830.433 million), arising from the provision of mining services.

Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may 
earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any 
of the Group’s other components. All operating segments’ operating results are regularly reviewed by the 
Chief Executive Officer in making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment, and for 
which discrete financial information is available.

Segment results that are reported to the Chief Executive Officer include items directly attributable to 
a segment, as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise of 
corporate assets, net foreign exchange differences, finance income, income taxes, share-based payments 
and acquisition costs. Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the year to acquire 
property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets other than goodwill.

Services revenue 
The Group generates revenue from the provision of mining services, which includes surface and 
underground mining, civil and rehabilitation services, equipment maintenance, rentals and management. 
The activities for each contract were assessed as highly inter-related and, as a result, the Group determined 
that one performance obligation exists for each of its mining contracts. 

The transaction price for each contract is based on agreed contractual rates to which the Group is entitled, 
and may include a variable pricing element which is discussed below.

Revenue for services is recognised over time on the basis of the work completed and billed to the customer 
as the customer receives the benefit. Amounts billed to customers are not secured and are typically due 
within 5 - 60 days from the invoice issuance.

Sale of goods 
The Group generates revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities, which is recognised 
at a point in time when control has been transferred to the customer, generally being when the goods are 
delivered and accepted by the customer. Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of 
consideration received or receivable, net of trade discounts.  

Variable consideration
Certain contracts with customers include a variable element which is subject to the Group meeting either 
certain cost targets or material movement KPIs. Variable consideration is recognised when it is highly 
probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur in a subsequent period. 

For the year ended 30 June 2022, variable consideration amounted to $36.772 million (2021: $40.314 
million) of which $7.509 million (2021: $16.827 million) was carried as a contract asset (note 9) and has 
subsequently been approved by customers. 

Non-cash consideration
Where customers contribute materials to the Group to facilitate the fulfilment of the contract, and the Group 
obtains control of the contributed materials, the cost of these materials have been included in revenue, as 
non-cash consideration received from the customer and the corresponding expense is included in materials 
and consumables used in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Due to COVID-19 and its impact on supply chains, from 1 July 2021, PT AMNT does not permit the Group to 
control all supplies on the Batu Hijau site. As a result, materials are not recognised as revenue or expenses 
during the period (30 June 2021: $96.199 million). In prior years, the supplies were passed through at cost by 
the group and there was no margin attached and therefore net earnings at Batu Hijau remain unchanged.

Income tax
The effective tax rate in the current year of 40.6% (Restated 30 June 2021: 4.9%) primarily resulted from the 
non-deductible expense in the form of earn-out in relation to previous acquisitions, partially offset by the 
lower statutory tax rates of foreign operations.

Excluding this one-off non-deductible expense, the effective tax rate for the financial year ended 30 June 
2022 approximates 27.5% (Restated 2021: 29.7%).

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognised 
in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or in other 
comprehensive income. 

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax  
rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of 
previous years. Current tax payable also includes any tax liability arising from the declaration of dividends.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be 
applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or 
substantively enacted, except for:   

•  when the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or 
liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects 
neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or 

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

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

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when 
they reverse, based on laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

79

 
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax 
liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable 
entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or 
their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, 
to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. 
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer 
probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Additional income tax expenses that arise from the distribution of cash dividends are recognised at the 
same time that the liability to pay the related dividend is recognised. The Group does not distribute  
non-cash assets as dividends to its shareholders.

Tax consolidation
The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities have formed a tax-consolidated group  
with effect from 1 July 2003 and are therefore taxed as a single entity from that date. The head entity  
within the tax-consolidated group is Macmahon Holdings Limited. Current income tax expense / benefit, 
deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the members of  
the tax-consolidated group are recognised in the separate financial statements of the members of the  
tax-consolidated group using the ‘separate taxpayer within group’ approach by reference to the carrying 
amounts of assets and liabilities in the separate financial statements of each entity and the tax values 
applying under tax consolidation.

Any current tax liabilities (or assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses of the 
subsidiaries are assumed by the head entity in the tax-consolidated group and are recognised as amounts 
payable to / (receivable from) other entities in the tax consolidated group in conjunction with any tax 
funding arrangement amounts (refer below). Any difference between these amounts is recognised by the 
Group as an equity contribution or distribution.

The Group recognises deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses of the tax-consolidated group 
to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits of the tax-consolidated group will be available 
against which the unused tax losses can be utilised. Any subsequent period adjustments to deferred tax 
assets arising from unused tax losses as a result of revised assessments of the probability of recoverability  
is recognised by the head entity only.

Nature of tax funding arrangements and tax sharing arrangements
The head entity, in conjunction with other members of the tax-consolidated group, has entered into a tax 
funding arrangement which sets out the funding obligations of members of the tax-consolidated group in 
respect of tax amounts. The tax funding arrangements require payments to / (from) the head entity equal 
to the current tax asset / (liability) assumed by the head entity and any deferred tax loss asset assumed 
by the head entity, resulting in the head entity recognising an inter-entity payable / (receivable) equal in 
amount to the tax asset / (liability) assumed. The inter-entity payables / (receivables) are at call.

Contributions to fund the current tax liabilities are payable as per the tax funding arrangement and reflect 
the timing of the head entity’s obligation to make payments for tax liabilities to the relevant tax authorities.

The head entity in conjunction with other members of the tax-consolidated group has also entered into 
a tax sharing agreement. The tax sharing agreement provides for the determination of the allocation of 
income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations.  
No amounts have been recognised in the financial statements in respect of this agreement as payment  
of any amounts under the tax sharing agreement is considered remote. 

Income tax
The Group is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant judgment is 
required in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations 
undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. 
The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on the consolidated entity’s current 
understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the carrying 
amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such 
determination is made.

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

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

Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at the fair value of the services provided to the customer and 
subsequently at amortised cost less expected credit loss allowances. Other receivables are initially 
recognised at cost and subsequently measured at amortised cost less expected credit loss allowances. 

Due to the short term nature of these receivables, their carrying amount approximates their fair value. 

Other receivables include:  

•  Contracted reimbursements for project closure costs of $8.569 million (2021: $7.408 million) relating  

to the costs recognised as part of the provision for contract closure. Refer to note 13; and,  

•  VAT receivable of $16.323 million (2021: $10.779 million) relating to input tax credits collected on goods 
and services consumed has been classified as current, in part, to the extent that the Group expects to 
receive this within the next 12 months. A VAT receivable of $4.075 million continues to be classified as 
non-current as at 30 June 2022 (2021: $2.278 million).

Agency receivables
The Group entered into a tripartite agreement with a customer and financier regarding certain mining 
equipment acquired for the mining contract. The tripartite agreement provides the financier with a put 
option and the customer with a call option over the equipment, whilst the Group acts as an agent  
between the financier and the customer, to source and maintain the equipment. The feature of the  
put / call transaction results in control and risk or reward of the equipment not being with the Group.  
Lease costs paid by the Group in relation to the equipment (including interest) in excess to the receipts  
from the customer is recovered from the customer on the earlier of the life of the asset or exercise of the  
put / call, which is represented by a non-current receivable at the end of the contract.

Contract assets
Contract assets of $198.033 million (2021: $158.741 million) relate to the Group’s right to consideration 
of mining services rendered but not billed as at 30 June 2022. Contract assets are transferred to trade 
receivables when the Group issues an invoice to the customer. 

Included in contract assets are also current mobilisation costs of $3.819 million (2021: $1.169 million) 
capitalised at the commencement of the projects, where the recovery of these costs is included in future 
rates. These costs are amortised over the contract period as the income is earned. A balance of $9.387 
million of capitalised mobilisation costs is classified as non-current as at 30 June 2022 (2021: $3.070 million) 
as the contract term for the projects is over 12 months.

The balance of contract assets varies and is dependent on the scale of mining services rendered for the 
claim period, which is ordinarily a calendar month, immediately preceding the end of the reporting period.

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

The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average principle and includes expenditure incurred in 
acquiring the inventories and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. 
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs 
of completion and estimated costs to sell. 

Allowance for obsolescence 
The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgment. 
The level of the provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, current market 
conditions, the ageing of inventories and other factors that affect inventory obsolescence.

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the 
financial year and unpaid. Due to their short-term nature, they are measured at amortised cost and are not 
discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 to 60 days of recognition based on 
the credit terms.

Accrued wages and salaries between the last pay period and 30 June 2022 of $6.699 million (2021: $8.972 
million) are included within accrued expenses.

Refer to note 16 for further details on financial instruments. 

Contingent consideration 
The GBF acquisition final earn-out expense of $21.945 million for the year ended 30 June 2022 consisted of 
a cash outflow of $17.095 million, with the remaining cash payment deferred until 1 July 2022.  

Following the finalisation of Macmahon FY2022 results and the consideration of an independent report from 
an external accounting firm, an earn-out of $23.5 million was determined under the purchase agreement. 

At 30 June 2022, $5.100 million remains to be paid in FY2023.

Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave, long service leave and 
accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised 
in current liabilities in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the 
amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Non-accumulating sick leave is expensed  
to profit or loss when incurred.

Long service leave
The liability for long service leave is recognised in current and non-current liabilities, depending on the 
unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. The 
liability is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services 
provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is 
given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. 
Expected future payments are discounted using market yields on high quality corporate bonds at the 
reporting date with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future 
cash outflows.

Defined contribution superannuation expense
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed 
contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. 
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense 
in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions 
are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or reduction in future payments is available. 
Contributions to a defined contribution plan which are due more than 12 months after the end of the period 
in which the employees render the service are discounted to their present value.

Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognised as an expense when the Group is committed demonstrably, without 
realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either terminate employment before the 
normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage 
voluntary redundancy. Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognised as an expense if the 
Group has made an offer encouraging voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, 
and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after 
the reporting date, then they are discounted to their present value.

Superannuation plan
The Trust Company Ltd is the Trustee of the Macmahon Employees Superannuation Fund (the Fund) and is 
responsible for all areas of compliance with regard to the Fund. There are less than 5 employees remaining 
in the plan.

Other employee benefits
Other employee benefits include short-term incentive plans (prior years deferred entitlements and current 
year estimates), site performance bonuses, sick leave accruals, religious holiday allowance for certain 
international staff and other short-term benefits.

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

Provision for project closure
The provision for project closure requires a degree of estimation and judgement around contractual term, 
expected redundancy and demobilisation costs. The provision is assessed by taking into account past 
history of contract closures and likelihood of contract extensions.

Reclassification from employee benefits
During the current year, the employee redundancy cost was reclassified to the provision for contract closure.

Macmahon Annual Report 2022Property, plant and equipment 
Property, plant and equipment is measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated 
impairment losses, if any.    

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-
constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to 
bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs of dismantling and removing 
the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and capitalised borrowing costs. Cost may also 
include transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges from foreign currency 
purchases of property, plant and equipment. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of  
the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment.

The fair value of property, plant and equipment recognised as a result of a business combination is based 
on market values. The market value of plant and equipment is the estimated amount for which plant and 
equipment could be exchanged, on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in 
an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing, wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, 
prudently and without compulsion. The market value of plant and equipment is based on external market 
appraisals from accredited, independent valuation specialists.  

When parts of an item of plant and equipment have different useful lives, the items are accounted for as 
separate items (i.e. major components) of plant and equipment. 

Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Significant components of individual 
assets are assessed, and if a component has a useful life that is different from the remainder of that asset, 
that component is depreciated separately.   

Depreciation on buildings, leasehold improvements and minor plant and equipment is calculated on a 
straight-line basis. Depreciation on major plant and equipment and components is calculated on machine 
hours worked or straight-line over their estimated useful life. Leased assets are depreciated using the 
straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term, unless the lease transfers 
ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term, or the cost of the right-of-use  
asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option. In that case, the right-of-use asset will be 
depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset, which is determined on the same basis as those 
property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses,  
if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability. Land is not depreciated.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed on regular basis with annual 
reassessments for major items and adjusted if appropriate. 

The expected useful lives for the current and comparative years are as follows: 

•  Leasehold improvements: Period of the lease 
•  Plant and equipment: 3-12 years   
•  Right-of-use assets: Period of the lease 

The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets, other than inventories (see inventory accounting policy) 
and deferred tax assets (see income tax accounting policy), are reviewed at each balance sheet date 
to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s 
recoverable amount is estimated (see impairment of non-financial assets below).

For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually or more frequently if events or changes in 
circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. 

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit 
exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. 

Leasehold improvements and plant and equipment under lease are depreciated over the unexpired period 
of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter. 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future 
economic benefit to the Group. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds 
are taken to profit or loss. Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to the item disposed of is transferred 
directly to profits reserve.

Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing a component of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the 
carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the 
component will flow to the Group, and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the 
replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are 
recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Estimation of useful lives of assets
The Group determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation expenses  
for its property, plant and equipment and finite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change 
significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation 
expense will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete 
or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down.

Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets
The Group assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life 
intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group and to the particular 
asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is 
determined. This involves fair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate 
a number of key estimates and assumptions, including the continued performance of contracted work, 
growth rates of the estimated future cash flows and discount rates based on the current cost of capital.

Change in estimates
The group has revised their estimates for the capitalisation and expense of certain components to property, 
plant and equipment. These components, including tyres, allocated to the appropriate plant and equipment 
on initial recognition are more appropriately depreciated based on their measure of usage of the specific 
component. This revised method more appropriately aligns the expense with revenue across the year. 

Non-current assets held for sale 
Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally 
through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. They are measured at the lower of their 
carrying amount and fair value less costs of disposal. Costs of disposal are the incremental costs directly 
attributable to the disposal of an asset, excluding finance costs and income tax expense.

For non-current assets to be classified as held for sale, those assets must be available for immediate sale  
in their present condition and their sale must be highly probable.

Non-current assets classified as held for sale are separately presented on the face of the consolidated 
statement of financial position as current assets. 

Impairment of assets
For the year ended 30 June 2022, the Group assessed whether there were any indicators of impairment. 
The Company’s market capitalisation at 30 June 2022 was below its net assets and management 
considered this factor an impairment indicator at 30 June 2022.

The recoverable amount was determined by calculating the higher of Fair Value less Costs of Disposal 
(FVLCD) and Value in Use (VIU) for the group CGU’s.

The CGU’s of the Group are Surface and civil, Underground and International. At 30 June 2022, none of 
these CGU’s were considered to be impaired as the recoverable amount was greater than the carrying value 
of the assets in the CGU, resulting in no impairment. 

In addition, an independent desk top valuation was obtained for certain major equipment in Australia.  
The valuation exceeded the carrying amount.

 30 June 2021 balances have been restated to reflect the Group’s change in accounting policy for costs related to 
configuration and customisation of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) arrangements. Refer below for more details.  

Intangible assets 
Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at 
their fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised 
at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and are subsequently measured at cost less 
any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any 
impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible 
assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the 
intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes 
in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the 
amortisation method or period.

Goodwill
Goodwill is measured at cost, less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment 
testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the 
Group’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether 
other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units. 

91

Customer contracts
Customer contracts are a separately identifiable intangible asset equal to the present value of future  
post-tax cash flows attributed to the portfolio of incomplete underground mining services contracts 
assumed at acquisition date through a business combination. 

Customer contracts are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Amortisation 
of customer contracts is included in depreciation and amortisation expenses in the consolidated statement 
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The expected useful life of customer contracts ranges from 
2 to 3 years.

Software
Development expenditure is capitalised only if development costs can be measured reliably or the process 
is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Group intends 
to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use the asset. The software expenditure 
capitalised includes the cost of materials, direct labour and overhead costs directly attributable to preparing 
the asset for its intended use. Other development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Capitalised software development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and 
impairment losses. The amortisation is included in depreciation and amortisation expenses. The expected 
useful life of software is 5 years. 

Impairment of non-financial assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation, 
and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate 
that they might be impaired. Other non-financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or 
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss  
is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

Change in accounting policy and the impact of cash flow reclassification
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) arrangements
The International Financial Reporting Standards Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) has issued two final 
agenda decisions which impact SaaS arrangements:

•  Customer’s right to receive access to the supplier’s software hosted on the cloud (March 2019) – this 

decision considers whether a customer receives a software asset at the contract commencement date  
or a service over the contract term. 

•  Configuration or customisation costs in a cloud computing arrangement (April 2021) – this decision 

discusses whether configuration or customisation expenditure relating to SaaS arrangements can be 
recognised as an intangible asset and if not, over what time period the expenditure is expensed.  

During the year, the Group revised its accounting policy in relation to configuration and customisation  
costs incurred in implementing SaaS arrangements in response to the IFRIC agenda decision clarifying  
its interpretation of how current accounting standards apply to these types of arrangements. 

The Group’s accounting policy has historically been to capitalise costs related to the implementation, 
configuration and customisation of SaaS arrangements as intangible assets in the Consolidated Statement 
of Financial Position. Following the adoption of the above IFRIC agenda decision, current software with 
underlying SaaS arrangements were identified and assessed to determine if the Group has control of the 
software. For those arrangements where the Group does not control the software or the asset, the Group 
derecognised the intangible previously capitalised.

The adoption of the above agenda decision has resulted in recognition of costs capitalised on SaaS 
arrangements as an expense of $4.964 million in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other 
Comprehensive Income for the current year ended 30 June 2022 and $10.064 million as an opening 
balance adjustment in retained earnings related to 30 June 2021.

reimbursements of $8.569 million (2021: $7.408 million), VAT receivable of $20.398 million (2021: $13.057 
million), non-financial contract assets of $13.206 million (2021: $4.239 million), and other non-financial assets 
of $3.296 million (2021: $1.838 million). 

Trade and other payables excludes GST and other taxes payable of $13.180 million (2021: $12.790 million).

With the exception of contingent consideration, which is measured at fair value through profit or loss, 
financial assets and liabilities are otherwise measured at amortised cost.

Financial instruments not measured at fair value
Fair value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and trade payables approximate their carrying amounts 
largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Financial risk management objectives
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk 
management framework. This framework is designed to identify, monitor and manage the material risks 
throughout the Group to ensure risks remain within appropriate limits.

Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and 
the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to 
develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles 
and obligations.   

The Board of Directors oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management 
policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the 
risks faced by the Group. The Board of Directors is assisted in its oversight role by the Audit and Risk 
Committee. Internal audits undertaken are reviews of controls and procedures, the results of which are 
reported to the Audit and Risk Committee.

The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:

•  Market risk
•  Credit risk
•  Liquidity risk

This note presents qualitative and quantitative information about the Group’s exposure to each of the  
above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the  
management of capital.

94

Macmahon Annual Report 2022 
 
 
 
 
Market risk
Market risk includes changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates that will 
affect the Group’s income or the value of its financial instruments. The objective of market risk management 
is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising returns.

Currency risk
The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a 
currency other than respective functional currencies of entities within the Group, which are primarily the 
Australian Dollar (AUD), but also the US Dollar (USD), Indonesian Rupiah (IDR), Great British Pounds (GBP), 
Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), South African Rand (ZAR), Singapore Dollar (SGD) and Ghanaian Cedi (GHS). The 
Group is also exposed to foreign currency risk on plant and equipment purchases that are denonimated in a 
currency other than AUD. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily USD and IDR.

The contracts for mining services and purchases are primarily denominated in the functional currencies of 
entities within the Group to minimise the foreign exchange currency risk.

In respect of other monetary assets and liabilities held in currencies other than the AUD, the Group ensures 
that the net exposure is kept to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates 
when necessary to address short-term imbalances.

Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument 
fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s trade receivables and 
contract assets from customers.

Cash and cash equivalents
The Group limits its exposure to credit risk for cash and cash equivalents by only investing in liquid 
securities, and with counterparties that have an acceptable credit rating where possible.

Guarantees
The Group’s policy is to provide financial guarantees only to or for subsidiaries.  
Details of outstanding guarantees are provided in note 20.

Trade and other receivables
The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the characteristics of each individual customer. 
The demographics of the Group’s customer base, including the default risk of the industries and countries 
in which customers operate, has less influence on credit risk. For the year ended 30 June 2022, 39% of the 
Group’s revenue is attributable to revenue transactions with three customers related to three projects (2021: 
61% attributed to four customers related to four projects). Geographically, the primary concentration of 
credit risk is in Australia and Indonesia.

Under the Group’s systems and procedures, each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness 
before the Group’s standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The exposure to credit 
risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. The Group’s analysis includes external ratings, when available, and 
in some cases bank references. Credit risk is minimised by managing payment terms, receiving advance 
payments, receiving the benefit of a bank guarantee, or by entering into credit insurance for customers 
considered to be at risk.

In determining the provision for ECLs, the Group allocates its exposure to a credit risk based on data that is 
determined to be predictive of the risk of loss (including, but not limited to external credit ratings, audited 
financial statements and available press information) and applying experienced credit judgement. Loss rates 
applied to credit risk ratings are sourced from external credit rating agencies. 

The following table provides summarised information of the exposure to credit risk on trade receivables and 
contract assets as at 30 June 2022:

The Group recognises a provision for ECLs on financial assets measured at amortised cost and contract 
assets at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset 
has increased significantly since initial recognition, and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers 
reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. 
This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical 
experience and informed credit assessment. The Group assumes a financial asset to be in default when the 
debtor is unlikely to pay its credit obligatons to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions, 
such as realising security (if any is held) or the financial asset is more than 90 days past due. 

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The 
Group’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, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the 
Group’s reputation. 

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

On 28 July 2022 the group extended and increased the syndicated finance facility to 30 September 2026. 
Refer to note 22 for further details.  

Information about changes in term facilities during the year is disclosed in note 17.

Remaining contractual maturities 
The following tables detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities. The tables 
have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date 
on which the financial liabilities are required to be paid. The tables include both interest and principal cash 
flows disclosed as remaining contractual maturities, and therefore these totals may differ from their carrying 
amount in the statement of financial position.

Lease liabilities
The Group leases offices, plant and equipment, and vehicles across the countries in which it operates. Lease 
contracts are for fixed periods between 6 months and 10 years and may include extension options.

On 24 August 2021, the Group executed a new syndicated asset finance facility. The total amount 
available under this asset finance facility is $145.000 million and it enables the Group to support its capital 
requirements for the current financial year. As at 30 June 2022, $119.002 million was utilised.

Interest Bearing Loans 
For the existing syndicated multi-option debt facility which has total amount available of $158.000 
million, the Group has drawn a total of $118.000 million as cash and $8.546 million as bank guarantees as 
at 30 June 2022. (As at 30 June 2021: $60.000 million drawn as cash and $4.401 million drawn as bank 
guarantees).

On 28 July 2022 this facility was extended 3 years to 30 September 2026. Refer to note 22.

101

 
 
 
 
 
 
The Group has a number of loans secured against specific equipment with an amount owing of of $45.074 
million as at 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: $37.935 million). 

In addition, the Group secured a new USD denominated $8.157 million (AUD $11.547 million) term facility  
for its Indonesian operations. This was fully drawn at 30 June 2022 and repayable by April 2025.

Assets pledged as security 
The Group’s lease liabilities and specific loans are secured by the relevant assets and in the event of default, 
the assets revert to the lessor or financier. All remaining assets of the Group are pledged as security under 
the multi-option facility.

Borrowings 
Borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. 
They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the 
reporting date, borrowings are classified as non-current.

Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity and entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds 
on the winding up of the Parent in proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. The 
fully paid ordinary shares have no par value, and the Parent does not have authorised capital. Incremental 
costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of 
tax, from the capital proceeds.

On a show of hands, every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote, and 
upon a poll each share shall have one vote.

Treasury shares   
Ordinary shares purchased on market by the Company are recognised at cost, less incremental costs 
directly attributable to the ordinary shares purchased.

Capital risk management  
The Group’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern so 
that it may provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum 
capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Group would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as 
value-adding relative to the Parent entity’s current share price at the time of the investment.

The Group is subject to certain financing arrangement covenants, and meeting these is given priority in all 
capital risk management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements 
during the financial year.

The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. The ratio is calculated as net debt divided by 
total equity and net debt. Net debt is calculated as ‘borrowings’ less ‘cash and cash equivalents’, as shown 
in the consolidated statement of financial position. Total equity is as shown in the consolidated statement of 
financial position. At 30 June 2022, the Group was in a net debt position.

The gearing ratio at 30 June is as below:

Reserve for own shares
The reserve for Company’s own shares comprises the cost (net of tax) of the Company’s shares held by 
the trustee of the Group’s equity compensation plans which were purchased on-market in anticipation of 
vesting of share-based payment awards under the equity compensation plans. During the year, 1,707,183 
shares were purchased by the Company (2021: 776,857 shares) for the non-executive directors’ salary sacrifice 
plan. At 30 June 2022, there were 54,839,003 unallocated shares held in trust (2021: 54,839,003 shares).

Foreign currency reserve
The foreign currency reserve is used to recognise exchange differences arising from the translation of the 
financial statements of foreign operations to Australian dollars. It is also used to recognise gains and losses 
on the net investments in foreign operations. The foreign currency translation reserve is reclassified to the 
profit and loss either on sale or cessation of the underlying foreign operation. 

Share based payments reserve
The share based payments reserve is used to record the value of share based payments and performance 
rights to employees, including KMP, as part of their remuneration, as well as non-employees. Refer to note 27.

A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby two or more parties undertake an economic activity 
that is subject to joint control.

Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.

Under the equity method, the share of the profits or losses of the joint venture is recognised in profit or loss, 
and the share of the movements in equity is recognised in other comprehensive income. 

For the comparative prior-year ended 30 June 2021, the Group had recognised PT Macmahon Mining 
Services (PT MMS) as an incorporated joint venture for the majority of that financial year until it was fully 
acquired as a subsidiary in June 2021. Before it became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Group, PT MMS 
contributed $5.345 million profit net of tax to the Group for the year ended 30 June 2021.

•  Macmahon Executive Equity Plan (EEP);
•  Senior Manager Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP); and
•  Non-Executive Director Salary Sacrifice Plan (SSP).

Executives and Senior Management Plans
EEP AND LTIP PLANS
The LTIP and EEP provides Executive and senior management with the opportunity to receive fully paid 
ordinary shares in the Company for no consideration, subject to specified time restrictions, continuous 
employment and performance conditions being met. Each performance right will entitle participants to 
receive one fully paid ordinary share at the time of vesting. The LTIP and EEP are designed to assist with 
employee retention, and to incentivise employees to maximise returns and earnings for shareholders.  
The Board of Directors determines which employees are eligible to participate and the number of 
performance rights granted.

Non-Executive Director (NED) Salary Sacrifice Plan  
The SSP provides Non-Executive Directors with the option to sacrifice a portion of their salary in return for 
a fixed number of rights over ordinary but restricted shares, which will vest equally within 8 months and 14 
months from grant date. Once vested, the shares will be held on trust on behalf of the recipients but will 
be subject to certain restrictions, which limit the recipients’ ability to sell the shares. Trading restrictions will 
generally end on the earliest of ceasing to be a Non-Executive Director, the date a change of control occurs 
or 15 years after the date the relevant NED share rights were granted.

Share-based payment transactions 
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by referencing the fair value 
of the equity instruments at the date at which they were granted. The fair value is determined by using 
the Binomial, Black-Scholes or Monte Carlo model taking into account the terms and conditions upon 
which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled 
share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities with the next 
annual reporting period, but may impact profit or loss and equity.  

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

113

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently 
determined using either the Binomial, Monte Carlo or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into 
account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and 
expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate 
for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the Group 
receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other 
vesting conditions.

The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in 
equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date 
fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest, and the expired 
portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative 
amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods.

Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to 
market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, 
provided all other conditions are satisfied.

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not 
been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification 
that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the Group or employee, the failure to satisfy the 
condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the Group or employee 
and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the 
remaining vesting period unless the award is forfeited.

If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any 
remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled 
award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification.

If any performance rights have been forfeited for failure to complete a service period, the costs of the 
performance rights are trued up, i.e. amounts previously expensed are no longer incurred and accordingly 
reversed in the current year. This policy is applied irrespective of whether the employee resigns voluntarily 
or is dismissed by the Company.

31  DISPOSAL GROUP HELD FOR SALE

In June 2022, management committed to a plan to sell the assets and liabilities of Ramex Services Pty Ltd 
entity. Accrodingly the assets and liabilities of Ramex Services Pty Ltd have been presented as a disposal 
group.

of the underlying assets. This has resulted in an impairment loss of $1.021 million recognised in “Impairment 
of asset disposal group” in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and Other Comprehensive 
Income. The impairment losses have been applied to reduce the carrying amount of property, plant and 
equipment within the disposal group.

At 30 June 2022, the disposal group was stated at fair value less costs to sell and comprised of the 
following assets and liabilities.

Trade and other receivables

32  OTHER SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. 
The accounting policies are consistent with those disclosed in the prior period financial statements, except for  
the impact of new and amended standards and interpretations, effective 1 July 2021. The adoption of these 
standards and interpretations did not result in any significant changes to the Group’s accounting policies. 

The Group has not elected to early adopt any new or amended standards or interpretations that are issued 
but not yet effective. 

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not effective for the Group at 30 June 2022 or  
early adopted 
A number of new standards, amendments of standards and interpretations are effective for annual  
periods beginning from 1 July 2022 and earlier application is permitted, however, the Group has not early 
adopted these standards in preparing these consolidated financial statements. 

The Group has reviewed these standards and interpretations and has determined that none of these new 
or amended standards and interpretations will significantly affect the Group’s accounting policies, financial 
position or performance.

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

The consolidated financial statements provide comparative information in respect of the previous period. 
For consistency with the current year’s presentation, where required, comparative information has been 
reclassified.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except for contingent 
consideration and certain other financial assets and financial liabilities, which are measured at fair value.

Critical accounting estimates 
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also 
requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. 
The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates 
are significant to the financial statements, are included in the respective notes to the financial statements: 

•  Note 2 - revenue recognition: estimate of variable consideration 
•  Note 5 - recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which deductable 

temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilised 

•  Note 14 - impairment of non-financial assets

Parent entity information 
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the Group 
only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 30.

119

Principles of consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Macmahon 
Holdings Limited as of 30 June 2022 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Macmahon 
Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the ‘Group’.

Subsidiaries  
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when 
the Group 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 Group. Entities are deconsolidated from 
the date that control ceases.

Interest in equity accounted investees 
The Group’s interests in equity-accounted investees comprise interests in joint ventures.

A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Group has joint control, whereby the Group has rights to the 
net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities.  

Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost, 
including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated financial statements include 
the Group’s share of the profit or loss, and other comprehensive income of equity accounted investees, until 
the date on which significant influence or joint control ceases. 

Transactions eliminated on consolidation 
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group 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 Group. 

Foreign currency translation 
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Macmahon Holdings Limited’s 
functional and presentation currency .  

Foreign currency transactions 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing 
at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of 
such transactions, and from the translation at the reporting date exchange rates of monetary assets, and 
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the profit or loss.

Foreign operations 
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange 
rates at the reporting date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency at the reporting 
date are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The income and expenses 
of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars at the average exchange rates for the period. 
Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign 
currency translation reserve in equity.

When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither 
planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary 
item are recognised to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation and are recognised in other 
comprehensive income, and are presented in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity. 

120

Macmahon Annual Report 2022Current and non-current classification 
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current 
classification. 

An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed 
in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 
12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being 
exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are 
classified as non-current. 

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is 
held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; 
or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the 
reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

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

Goods and Services Tax (GST), Value Added Tax (VAT) and other similar taxes 
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the 
acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. 

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount 
of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables 
in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or 
financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating 
cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, 
the tax authority. 

Rounding of amounts 
The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial / Directors’ Reports) Instrument  
2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to ‘rounding-off’. 
Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Class Order to the nearest thousand 
dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.

All rights reserved. The KPMG name and logo are trademarks used under license by the independent member firms of the KPMG global organisation. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.  124 Independent Auditor’s Report To the shareholders of Macmahon Holdings Limited Report on the audit of the Financial Report  Opinion We have audited the Financial Report of Macmahon Holdings Limited (the Company). In our opinion, the accompanying Financial Report of the Company is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:  • Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2022 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and • Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. The Financial Report comprises:  • Consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2022; • Consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, Consolidated statement of changes in equity, and Consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; • Notes including a summary of significant accounting policies; and • Directors’ Declaration. The Group consists of the Company and the entities it controlled at the year-end or from time to time during the financial year. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report section of our report.  We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the Financial Report in Australia. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. Key Audit Matters Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Financial Report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on this matter.   Macmahon Annual Report 2022125

125 Revenue recognition ($1,698.1 million) Refer to Note 2 to the Financial Report The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit The Group’s revenue arises from rendering mining and mining related services based on contracts with customers. Revenue recognised is based on contractual rates or on a cost reimbursement basis as performance obligations are met.  We focussed on this area as a key audit matter due to its significant value in the Group’s financial report and audit effort associated with a large number of customer contracts. Our procedures included: Evaluating the Group’s revenue recognitionpolicies against the requirements of the relevantaccounting standards;Understanding the Group’s process foraccounting for revenue across differentcontracts against the terms in the customercontracts;Testing key controls in the revenue recognitionprocess such as approval of monthly progressclaims by the Group’s project manager andcustomers prior to billing;Testing a statistical sample of revenuetransactions by agreeing it to documentation tosupport the satisfaction of the performanceobligation;Evaluate key contracts with customers toensure revenue is recognised in accordancewith the requirements of the AccountingStandards;Testing a statistical sample of unbilled revenueaccruals to by agreeing it to documentation tosupport the satisfaction of the performanceobligation;Testing a sample of invoices recognised duringthe period under audit, and in subsequentperiods, to the underlying progress claims tocheck revenue recognition in the correct period;Obtaining significant credit notes recognisedpost year end to check the Group’s recognitionof revenue in the correct period;For key contracts where variable considerationis recognised, evaluating the Group’s evidenceto meet the recognition requirements of highlyprobable by checking to subsequent customerapproval of these amounts; andEvaluating the Group’s disclosures against ourunderstanding obtained from our testing and therequirements of the accounting standards.126

126 Valuation of property, plant and equipment ($672.6 million) and goodwill ($8.8 million) Refer to Note 14 and 15 to the Financial Report The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit A key audit matter for us was the testing for impairment of the Group’s cash generating units (CGUs), Surface and Civil and Underground and International. Property plant and equipment and goodwill associated with these CGUs amounts to $688.6 million, representing 51.4% of total assets of the Group. This is a key audit matter because of the size of the assets being tested, the deficiency of market capitalisation to net assets and the judgement required in this area. In performing an assessment of the valuation of the property, plant and equipment and goodwill management developed a value in use model which contains significant and judgmental assumptions including:  Forecast revenues;Forecast project margins;Forecast capital expenditurerequirements;Growth rates; andDiscount rates.TThheessee  aassssuummppttiioonnss  rreeqquuiirree  mmaannaaggeemmeenntt  ttoo  aappppllyy  ssiiggnniiffiiccaanntt  eessttiimmaatteess  aanndd  jjuuddggeemmeennttss,,  wwhhiicchh  ccoonnttrriibbuuttee  ttoo  oouurr  ccoonncclluussiioonn  tthhaatt  vvaalluuaattiioonn  ooff  pprrooppeerrttyy  ppllaanntt  aanndd  eeqquuiippmmeenntt  aanndd  ggooooddwwiillll  iiss  aa  kkeeyy  aauuddiitt  mmaatttteerr..
