The proposed changes by the Labor government to the treatment of fringe benefi ts tax (FBT) on motor vehicles if enacted are expected to materially 
and adversely impact the Group Remuneration Services segment and consequently, the Group’s operations and fi nancial circumstances. Under the 
circumstances, the Directors have not declared a fi nal dividend in respect of the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

This review is written in a climate of great uncertainty. Investors will be well aware of the Rudd Labor Government’s 16 July 2013 announcement of 
proposed changes to the treatment of FBT on motor vehicles, see McMillan Shakespeare ASX notice dated 24 July 2013. Until the election is held 
on September 7 and the winner declared (and perhaps even after that should Labor win), there is no reasonable basis to make any comment on the 
effect of the 16 July announcement on the novated leasing component of the Group Remuneration Services business and our business more generally.  
Accordingly, this review will confi ne itself to the 2013 Financial Year.

FY13 was another successful year for the McMillan Shakespeare Group:

•  NPAT increased by 15% to $62.2m. Included in that number is a $410,000 loss posted in the UK joint venture which commenced business on

1 February 2013.

• 

• 

In the Group Remuneration Services segment, NPAT increased by 16% to $46.8m. Revenue increased by 14% to $156m. The EBITDA margin 
expanded to 45% and EBIT to 42.7%.

The Asset Management segment (ex UK) delivered a 5% increase in profi t to $15m. A pleasing result given the decrease in remarketing profi ts 
foreshadowed in our August 2012 outlook. Assets under fi nance increased by 17% to $307m. The growth in the second half was fairly fl at. This was 
driven by a combination of increased competition in panel arrangements and an increase in customers putting vehicles into inertia (i.e. keeping 
them after the lease has expired) due to ongoing economic uncertainty.

•  Our UK Joint Venture (announced to the market in February 2013) is making pleasing progress. 2014 will be an important year for the consolidation 

of this business, the launch of new products and services and the setting of a platform for long term profi table growth.

•  McMillan Shakespeare has set up a UK fi nance facility, provided in GBP by one of our Australian bankers. The fi nance company is owned 100% by 
McMillan Shakespeare and will be one of a panel of providers to the UK joint venture. As credit markets remain tight in the UK, we anticipate being 
able to fund good quality credit risks at margins signifi cantly better than currently available in Australia.

• 

• 

The new asset management system was successfully delivered. This new platform is expected to support the business for at least 10 years.

Phase one of the renewal of our salary packaging systems was also successfully delivered. Phase two will be completed in the second half of FY14.  
These systems developments are expected simultaneously to improve our service delivery and reduce our expense base.

•  Headcount increased from 758 to 834.

•  Our latest staff survey has seen engagement increase from 80% to 84%. This places our business in the ‘high performance’ category.

In  summary,  2013  was  a  productive  and  successful  year  for  the  McMillan  Shakespeare  Group.  Our  core  business  performed  well,  notwithstanding 
generally adverse economic conditions and falling interest rates materially reducing our interest income. The UK Joint Venture has got off to a pleasing 
start and is expected to be a productive investment in the long term profi table growth of our Group.

STRATEGY AND PROSPECTS

The Labor Government’s surprise announcement on FBT on motor vehicles is having an adverse affect on our business, at least in the short term.  If the 
Coalition wins the election, it would appear from their policy statements, we should be able to move back to business as usual. In the meantime, we will 
work hard to convince Labor to change its mind. As soon as possible after the declaration of the election winner, we will further update the market on the 
prospects of the novated leasing component of our Remuneration Services segment and the business more generally.

STATE OF AFFAIRS

There  were  no  signifi cant  changes  in  the  state  of  affairs  of  the  Company  and  its  controlled  entities  that  occurred  during  the  fi nancial  year  ended
30 June 2013 that are not otherwise disclosed in this Annual Report.

EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO BALANCE DATE

Subsequent to reporting date, the Federal Government announced proposed legislative changes to the treatment of fringe benefi ts tax (FBT) on motor 
vehicles. The proposed change is expected to lead to an unknown and unquantifi able decrease in demand for novated leases and an adverse impact to 
the company’s business overall. The proposed changes require the passing of legislation to become effective and if enacted will have a material adverse 
impact on the future earnings of the Company. The Company is working through various scenarios, including the potential structural changes to internal 
departments should the proposed legislation changes be enacted as law.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS

Other than the information otherwise disclosed in this Annual Report, information as to the likely developments in the operations of the Company and its 
controlled entities and the expected results of those operations in subsequent years has not been included in this Annual Report because the Directors 
believe, on reasonable grounds, they are wholly dependent on the outcome of the general election on 7 September 2013.

REMUNERATION REPORT

Overview

The Group’s remuneration policies and practices are designed to align the interests of staff and shareholders while attracting and retaining staff members 
who  are  critical  to  its  growth  and  success.  The  Board  maintains  a  Remuneration  Committee  whose  objectives  are  to  oversee  the  formulation  and 
implementation of remuneration policy and make recommendations to the Board on remuneration policies and packages applicable to the Directors 
and executives. For further details of the composition and responsibilities of the Remuneration Committee, please refer to the Corporate Governance 
Statement.

Remuneration Structure – Non-Executive Directors

The Non-Executive Directors are remunerated for their services from the maximum aggregate amount approved by the shareholders of the Company on 
19 October 2010 for that purpose ($600,000 per annum). The Board sets the fees for the Chairman and the other Non-Executive Directors. No additional 
fees are paid for participation in Board committees.

The Board’s policy is to remunerate the Chairman and the Non-Executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for the time and commitment 
involved in meeting their obligations. 

Neither the Chairman nor the other Non-Executive Directors received or were entitled to any performance related remuneration or options with respect to 
the fi nancial years ended 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012. There is no direct link between the remuneration of the Chairman or any other Non-Executive 
Director and the short term results of the Group because the primary focus of the Board is on the long term strategic direction and performance of the 
Group. 

There are no termination payments payable to the Chairman or the other Non-Executive Directors on their retirement from offi ce other than payments 
relating to the accrued superannuation entitlements included in their remuneration.

Remuneration Structure – Executive Directors and Senior Executives

Overview

In setting its remuneration arrangements, reference has been made to the current employment market in which the Group operates. The components 
of  remuneration  for  each  executive  comprise  fi xed  remuneration  (including  superannuation  and  benefi ts)  and  long-term  equity-linked  performance 
incentives (in the form of options). The Remuneration Committee reviews the fi xed remuneration component of each executive’s remuneration each year 
(or on promotion). For the fi nancial year commencing July 2013 the Remuneration Committee has reviewed remuneration based on an analysis of the 
Top 500 Report (Director and Senior Executive Remuneration) 2013, and Hewitt The Australian Top Executive Remuneration Reports for organisations with 
Annual Revenue $251-$500 Million and 301-1,000 employees.

Fixed Remuneration 

The fi xed remuneration component comprises salary, superannuation and, in some cases, non-cash benefi ts, such as motor vehicle lease payments and 
car parking benefi ts. 

Fixed remuneration refl ects the duties, responsibilities and performance levels of the relevant executive, general market conditions and comparable 
remuneration offered in related industry sectors. No element of the fi xed remuneration component is at risk.

Neither  the  Chief  Executive  Offi cer  nor  the  Chief  Financial  Offi cer  are  remunerated  separately  for  acting  as  an  offi cer  of  the  Company  or  any  of  its 
controlled entities.

Short-term Incentives 

The  Company  does  not  generally  offer  contracted  cash  bonuses  as  part  of  a  short  term  incentive  program.  No  contracted  cash  based  short-term 
incentives were paid to (or were forfeited by) any executives during the fi nancial year ended June 2013.

The Remuneration Committee also has the authority to issue discretionary (as to both award and amount) cash bonuses as a reward for out-performance 
compared to budgeted targets. Such bonuses were paid to the majority of individual executives in relation to the year ended 30 June 2012 but not for 
the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013.

Long-term Incentives

From time to time the Company issues options to certain executives and employees under the McMillan Shakespeare Limited Employee Option Plan. 
Two types of options have been granted under this plan, performance options and voluntary options.

The Board believes that the use of options is the most appropriate form of long-term equity-based performance incentive to reinforce alignment with 
shareholder interests. All options issued have an exercise price (or strike price) and only become valuable to the extent that the share price rises above 
the exercise price. Given that options are issued at or above the prevailing market price at the date that the Board approved the grant (other than as 
disclosed in this Annual Report), it is implied that increased shareholder wealth is required. 

The use of NPAT or earnings per share growth targets for the performance option entitlements have been adopted to align the long term interests of the 
executives with shareholders and ensure appropriate behaviours are adopted for the long term benefi t of all stakeholders. The use of earnings per share 
growth targets for the performance option entitlements has historically been adopted to align the long term interests of the executives with shareholders 
and ensure appropriate behaviours are adopted for the long term benefi t of all stakeholders. However, the Board has determined that use of NPAT targets 
for the options issued in the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2012 and 30 June 2013 is a more appropriate measure than EPS targets. This was due to 
the high number of options (6,442,155) that vested in the year ended 30 June 2012 which materially reduced the EPS metric.  These vesting options 
represented over 9% of the shares on issue. Recognising that NPAT targets are not an appropriate measure of performance when there is a change in the 
capital structure of the Company, the NPAT targets may be adjusted to take account of such changes e.g. an increase in NPAT targets would be made for 
increased earnings derived from option proceeds or an acquisition where additional shares were issued. 

No executive can enter into a transaction that is designed or intended to hedge the executive’s exposure to any unvested option. Executives will be 
required to provide declarations to the Board on their compliance with this policy from time to time.

Performance Options

Performance options over unissued ordinary shares in the Company are granted for no consideration and are, other than as disclosed in this Annual 
Report, granted at or above market prices prevailing when the Board approved the issue. Performance options carry no dividend or voting rights. Once 
exercised, each option is converted into one fully paid ordinary share in the Company. 

The Remuneration Committee recommends to the Board the number of performance options to be granted on the basis of the position, duties and 
responsibilities of the relevant executive. 

As  at  30  June  2013,  the  Company  had  made  fourteen  offers  of  performance  options  in  March  2004,  December  2004,  April  2005,  August  2005,
February 2007, December 2007, July 2008, November 2008, August 2009 and May 2010, August 2011, October 2011, March 2012 and July 2012.
Many of the performance options issued have vested or expired prior to the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2012. No options vested during the fi nancial ended
30 June 2013.

Vesting details

Entire issue vests and is 
exercisable (subject to the 
achievement of the conditions) 
on 1 October 2014.

The entire issue vests upon 
the adoption of the Company’s 
Annual Report for the fi nancial 
year ended 30 June 2014.

and

(March 2012) 

The entitlement is subject to the completion of a 36 month contract ending 30 September 2014 and the 
achievement of predetermined NPAT targets as described below.

The options 
expire four 
years from the 
relevant date
of issue.

The entitlement to exercise these options is subject to continuity of employment and the achievement of 
predetermined targets, of which 100% is based on NPAT growth targets over three years. The NPAT growth will be 
based on the actual NPAT achieved for the year ending 30 June 2011 (the ‘Base Year’). The NPAT growth target will 
be based on compounding growth targets from the Base year.
In the event that the NPAT target in any one year is not achieved, at the end of the three year period ending
30 June 2014 the actual compound NPAT over the three year period will be calculated, and if the total exceeds the 
compound NPAT target for the three year period, then the executives will be entitled to exercise all the options which 
have not been forfeited.
The Board retains the right to adjust the NPAT targets in the event of a change in the capital structure of the 
Company that impacts earnings per share. Any change to the NPAT targets will be made having regard to the actual 
NPAT impact of the change to the capital structure.
In the event that the executives take unpaid leave for a period exceeding three months during any of the year ending 
30 June 2012, 2013 or 2014, the vesting criteria outlined above with respect to the fi nancial performance of the 
Company and the executives continued employment will be determined on a pro rata basis to refl ect the period of 
their continuous service during the relevant fi nancial year, unless the Board in its discretion determine otherwise.
The performance hurdles are as follows.

Options & issue date Expiry

Conditions

(July 2012)

The options 
expire three 
years from the 
relevant date
of issue.

The entitlement to exercise these options is subject to continuity of employment and the achievement of 
predetermined targets, of which 100% is based on NPAT growth targets over two years. The NPAT growth will be 
based on the actual NPAT achieved for the year ending 30 June 2012 (the ‘Base Year’). The NPAT growth target will 
be based on compounding growth targets from the Base year.
In the event that the NPAT target in any one year is not achieved, at the end of the two year period ending 30 June 
2014 the actual compound NPAT over the two year period will be calculated, and if the total exceeds the compound 
NPAT target for the two year period, then the executive will be entitled to exercise all the options which have not 
been forfeited.
The Board retains the right to adjust the NPAT targets in the event of a change in the capital structure of the 
Company that impacts earnings per share. Any change to the NPAT targets will be made having regard to the actual 
NPAT impact of the change to the capital structure.
In the event that the executives take unpaid leave for a period exceeding three months during any of the year ending 
30 June 2013 or 2014, the vesting criteria outlined above with respect to the fi nancial performance of the Company 
and the executive continued employment will be determined on a pro rata basis to refl ect the period of their 
continuous service during the relevant fi nancial year, unless the Board in its discretion determine otherwise.

No performance options vested during the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013.

In respect of the May 2010, August 2011, October 2011 and March 2012 performance options, actual NPAT performance for the fi nancial years ending 
30 June 2012 and 2013 have outperformed the respective applicable NPAT targets using the 2011 base year NPAT of $43.5m. The NPAT targets for 
FY12, FY13 and FY14 have been increased from their initial targets to refl ect the increased profi t the Group has derived from the change in the capital 
structure of the Company following the receipt of $29.7m of share capital from the exercise of employee share options and $0.6m of premiums received 
on the issue of voluntary options. The amount of the increase in NPAT targets is based on the lower interest expense that the Group is benefi ting from 
compared to if the options exercise proceeds and option premium were not otherwise received. The increase in NPAT target in FY12 is $0.7m and $1.4m 
for both FY13 and FY14. The following graph illustrates the actual NPAT performance compared to the NPAT performance targets for FY12 and FY13.

Voluntary Options

2012

2013

2014

To provide executives with an additional opportunity to invest in MMS the Board fi rst granted voluntary options in the year ended 30 June 2012 when 
314,578 options were issued at $1.32 each and expire on 30 September 2015 (the consideration was set at a 25% discount to the fair value of the 
options on grant date) up to an investment limit of $50,000 per executive. The maximum discount to any one executive is therefore, limited to $16,666.

The entitlement to exercise the voluntary options is not contingent upon continued employment with the Company nor are there performance hurdles. 
However, if the executive leaves employment before 31 August 2014, the executive will forfeit 25% of their entitlement for $1 (the amount forfeited being 
equal to the 25% discount to the fair market value that applied to the acquisition price of the option at the date of the conditional offer and acceptance). 
The vesting date of these options is upon adoption of the Company’s FY 2014 Annual Report. No performance hurdles are attached to these options as 
the executive has paid $50,000 for the purchase of these options (representing 75% of the fair value of the options on grant date).

Retirement Benefi ts - Executives

No contracted retirement benefi ts are in place with any of the Company’s executives. Retirement benefi ts may be provided by the Company to executives 
(including executive directors) from time to time if approved by shareholders (or otherwise provided in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)).

 The equity value comprises the value of options issued. No shares were issued to any Director (and no options were granted to any Director) during the fi nancial years ended 30 June 2013 
and 30 June 2012. The value of options issued to executives (as disclosed above) are the assessed fair values (less any payments for the options) at the date that the options were granted 
to the executives, allocated equally over the period from when the services are provided to vesting date. Fair values at grant date are determined using a binomial option pricing model that 
takes into account the exercise price, the expected term of the option, the share price at grant date, the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the 
risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

The model inputs for options granted to executives during the fi nancial years ended 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012 included:

NPAT growth in 2011 and 2010 have excluded the gain on acquisition of Interleasing (Australia) Limited in April 2010 of $17,055,000. 

Net profi t is considered as part of the fi nancial performance targets in setting short term incentives. Dividends, changes in share price, return on equity 
and earnings per share are all taken into account when setting the ‘at risk’ components of executive remuneration.

The overall level of executive compensation takes into account the performance of the Group over a number of years. The Group’s profi t from ordinary 
activities after tax and earnings per share has grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29% per annum over the period from 1 July 2008 until 
30 June 2013 (excluding the gain on business combination). Over the same period the average return on equity (RoE) exceeded 35%.

No Director has, during the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013, become entitled to receive any benefi t (other than a benefi t included in the aggregate 
amount of remuneration received or due and receivable by the Directors shown in the Remuneration Report or the fi xed salary of a full time employee of 
the Company) by reason of a contract made by the Company or a controlled entity with the Director or an entity in which the Director has a substantial 
fi nancial interest or a fi rm in which the Director is a member.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

The  Directors  believe  that  the  Company  and  its  controlled  entities  have  adequate  systems  in  place  for  the  management  of  relevant  environmental 
requirements and are not aware of any breach of those environmental requirements as they apply to the Company and its controlled entities.

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

Under the Company’s Constitution, the Company indemnifi es the Directors and offi cers of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries to the full 
extent permitted by law against any liability and all legal costs in connection with proceedings incurred by them in their respective capacities.

The Company has also entered into a Deed of Access, Indemnity and Insurance with each Director, each Company Secretary, and each responsible 
manager under the licenses which the Company holds (Deed), which protects individuals acting as offi ceholders during their term of offi ce and after 
their resignation. Under the Deed, the Company also indemnifi es each offi ceholder to the full extent permitted by law. 

The Company has a Directors & Offi cers Liability Insurance policy in place for all current and former offi cers of the Company and its controlled entities. 
The policy affords cover for loss in respect of liabilities incurred by Directors and offi cers where the Company is unable to indemnify them and covers 
the Company for indemnities provided to its Directors and offi cers. This does not include liabilities that arise from conduct involving dishonesty. The 
Directors have not included the details of premium paid with respect to this policy for the year ended 30 June 2013 as such disclosure is not permitted 
under the terms of the policy. The details of premium paid with respect to this policy for the 12 months to May 2014 is $71,408.

NON-AUDIT SERVICES

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor of the Company, Grant Thornton Audit Pty Ltd and its related practices, for non-audit services 
provided, during the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013, are disclosed in Note 4 to the Financial Statements.

The Company’s policy is that the external auditor is not to provide non-audit services unless the Audit Committee has approved that work in advance, 
as appropriate.

The Audit Committee has reviewed a summary of non-audit services provided during the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013 by Grant Thornton Audit 
Pty Ltd. Given that the only non-audit services related to client contract audits and review of banking covenant compliance, the Audit Committee has 
confi rmed that the provision of non-audit services is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 
2001 (Cth). This has been formally advised to the Board. Consequently, the Directors are satisfi ed that the provision of non-audit services during the year 
by the auditor and its related practices did not compromise the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

INTRODUCTION

This statement outlines the corporate governance policies and practices formally adopted by the Company. These policies and practices are in accordance 
with the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s ‘Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations’ (ASX Principles), unless otherwise stated.

ROLE OF THE BOARD

The role of the Board is to provide strategic guidance for the Group and effective oversight of management. The Board operates in accordance with 
the Company’s Constitution, Board Charter and Delegated Authority Matrix, which describe the Board’s composition, functions and responsibilities 
and  designates  authority  reserved  to  the  Board  and  that  delegated  to  management.  The  Board  charter  can  be  accessed  on  the  Company’s  website 
(www.mmsg.com.au).

COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD

As at the date of this Annual Report, the Directors are as follows:

Name

Mr R. Pitcher, AM

Mr M. Kay

Mr J. Bennetts

Mr R. Chessari

Mr G. McMahon

Mr A. Podesta

Position

Managing Director and Chief Executive Offi cer

Each Director is a senior executive with the skills and experience necessary for the proper supervision and leadership of the Company. As a team, the 
Board brings together a broad range of qualifi cations and experience in remuneration services, fi nancial services, fi nance, accounting, law, sales and 
marketing and public company affairs. Details of the Directors, their experience and their special responsibilities with respect to the Company are set 
out in the Directors’ Report.

The Board considers a Director independent if that person is free of management and other business relationships that could materially interfere, or could 
reasonably be perceived to materially interfere, with the exercise of objective and independent judgement. More information can be obtained from the 
Group’s Policy on the Independence of Directors which can be accessed on the Company’s website. The Chairman determines the relevant materiality 
thresholds on a case by case basis with reference to both quantitative and qualitative bases.

The ASX Guidelines recommend that a listed company should have a majority of directors who are independent. The Board, as currently composed, 
does not comply with this recommendation. Mr Chessari and Mr Bennetts currently hold, through their controlled entities, approximately 8.1% and 
5.4% respectively of the shares in the Company. These Directors have participated in the growth and development of McMillan Shakespeare and have a 
signifi cant interest in the Company’s continued success. Given their history and skills, the Board believes that it is appropriate for each of these Directors 
to remain on the Board.

Despite stepping down as CEO in the year ended 30 June 2008, and resigning as an Executive Director on 17 August 2010, Mr Podesta continues as a 
Director of the Company. As the founder of the Company, and with over 20 years experience in the remuneration services industry, Mr Podesta brings a 
wealth of experience and an in-depth knowledge of the Group’s operations and customers to the Board. As the Company’s largest shareholder, he also 
has a signifi cant interest in the Company’s continued success. As such, the Board believes that it is appropriate for Mr Podesta to remain on the Board 
as a non-independent Director. 

The Company believes that the Board, as currently composed, has the necessary skills and motivation to ensure that it continues to perform strongly 
notwithstanding that its overall composition does not specifi cally meet the ASX Principles. Details of the experience of the Directors is contained in the 
Directors’ Report.

The  Chairman  is  responsible  for  leading  the  Board  ensuring  Directors  are  properly  briefed  in  all  matters  relevant  to  their  role  and  responsibilities, 
facilitating Board discussions and managing the Board’s relationships with the Company’s senior executives. 

The Chief Executive Offi cer is responsible for implementing Group strategies and policies. The Board Charter specifi es that these are separate roles to 
be undertaken by separate people.

BOARD PRACTICES

The Board meets regularly to evaluate, control, review and implement the Company’s operations and objectives. The Directors receive monthly reports 
from the Chief Executive Offi cer, the Chief Financial Offi cer and operational managers. A Director, subject to prior approval of the Chairman or, in the 
absence of that approval, the Board may seek independent professional advice (including legal advice) at the Company’s expense to assist them in 
carrying out their duties and responsibilities.

PERFORMANCE REVIEW

The  Board  has  delegated  the  responsibility  for  evaluating  the  performance  of  the  Board,  the  Directors  and  the  Board  Committees  to  the  Chairman. 
The  performance  evaluation  includes  the  examination  of  the  performance  of  the  Board  and  the  individual  Directors  against  the  Board  Charter.  The 
evaluation may establish goals and objectives for the Board and provide any recommendations for improvement to Board performance as it sees fi t. The 
Chairman undertook the performance appraisal of the Board, the individual Directors and the Board Committees with respect to the fi nancial year ended
30 June 2013 in July 2013.

The Board has delegated the responsibility for evaluating the performance of executive management to the Remuneration Committee and CEO.

Given the size of the Company’s operations, the Board has decided against the establishment of a separate nomination committee at this time. As such, 
the responsibility for the selection and nomination of new Directors remains with the full Board.

REMUNERATION COMMITTEE

The Board has established a Remuneration Committee, which is structured so that the committee is chaired by an independent director and consists of at 
least three members all of whom are Non-Executive Directors. Details of names and relevant qualifi cations of the Directors appointed to the Remuneration 
Committee, the number of meetings of the committee held during the year ended 30 June 2013 and the attendance record for each relevant member 
can be found in the Directors’ Report.

The Remuneration Committee is empowered to investigate any matter brought to its attention and has direct access to any employee or any independent 
expert and adviser as it considers appropriate in order to ensure that its responsibilities can be carried out effectively. The Remuneration Committee has 
a documented charter approved by the Board. The charter can be accessed on the Company’s website.

The CEO carries out half-yearly performance reviews with each member of the senior executive team, comparing the individual’s performance against 
their agreed performance targets. This process was completed for the year ended 30 June 2013 with the CEO’s report to the July 2013 meeting of the 
Remuneration Committee. The Remuneration Committee has evaluated the performance of the Chief Executive Offi cer for the year ended 30 June 2013, 
taking account of the performance of the Group and other non-fi nancial outcomes.

The ASX Principles recommend that the majority of members of the Remuneration Committee should be independent. The Remuneration Committee, as 
currently composed, does not comply with this recommendation. 

At present, the Remuneration Committee is comprised of four members, two of whom are not independent. Mr Chessari and Mr Bennetts have participated 
in the growth and development of McMillan Shakespeare and have a signifi cant interest in the Company’s continued success. Given their management 
experience and skills, the Board believes that it is appropriate for each of these Directors to remain members of the Remuneration Committee.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Board has established an Audit Committee, which is structured so that the committee is chaired by an independent director and consists of at 
least three members, all of whom are Non-Executive Directors. Details of the names and relevant qualifi cations of the Directors appointed to the Audit 
Committee, the number of meetings of the committee held during the year ended 30 June 2013 and the attendance record for each relevant member 
can be found in the Directors’ Report.

The Audit Committee is empowered to investigate any matter brought to its attention and has direct access to any employee, the independent auditors or 
any other independent experts and advisers as it considers appropriate in order to ensure that its responsibilities can be performed effectively. The Audit 
Committee has a documented charter approved by the Board. The charter can be accessed on the Company’s website. 

The Board believes that during the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013, the Audit Committee had appropriate fi nancial expertise with all members being 
fi nancially literate and having a deep understanding of the industry in which the Company operates. 

The external auditor together with the Chief Executive Offi cer and Chief Financial Offi cer are invited to attend the meetings. The Audit Committee also 
meets with the external auditor twice a year without management to provide the auditor the opportunity to provide feedback on the conduct of the audit 
and management. 

The Company has adopted procedures for the selection and appointment of the external auditor, and the rotation of external audit engagement partners 
in line with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

FINANCIAL REPORTING & RISK MANAGEMENT

Given the nature and size of the Company’s operations, the Board has decided against the establishment of a separate Board risk management committee 
at this time, and risk management remains a direct responsibility of the full Board. As such, the Board has ultimate responsibility for the integrity of 
the Company’s fi nancial reporting. As part of the Group’s risk management processes, senior management attend a monthly Risk and Compliance 
Committee, which is supported by internal control processes for identifying, evaluating and managing signifi cant fi nancial, operational and compliance 
risks to the achievement of the Company’s objectives, which are subject to Board oversight from time to time. In addition, an independent external party 
has been appointed to provide internal audit services as required from time to time.

The Company has reviewed its formal Risk Management Policy and Framework during the year, and the Credit Committee and Interest Committee met on 
a monthly basis during the year. The Risk Management Policy and Framework are accessible to all staff on the Group’s intranet and identify the material 
risks affecting the Company and the manner in which each of those risks will be managed. A copy of the Company’s Risk Management Policy can be 
accessed on the Company’s website.

Considerable importance is placed on maintaining a strong control environment. There is an organisation structure with clear lines of accountability and 
delegation of authority. Adherence to the Director and Employee Codes of Conduct is required at all times and the Board actively promotes a culture of 
quality and integrity.

The Directors have received and considered written representations from the Chief Executive Offi cer and the Chief Financial Offi cer in accordance with 
the ASX Principles. The written representations confi rmed that:

• 

• 

the fi nancial reports are complete and present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the fi nancial condition and operating results of the 
Company and its controlled entities and are in accordance with all relevant accounting standards; and

the above statement is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control that implements the policies adopted 
by the Board and that compliance and control is operating effi ciently and effectively in all material respects.

The Company’s external auditor has been invited to attend the Annual General Meeting and be available to answer questions from the members of the 
Company about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Independent Audit Report.

REMUNERATION POLICY

The Company’s remuneration policy is structured to ensure that the reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. 
Further, it aims to ensure that remuneration packages properly refl ect the duties and responsibilities and level of performance of the staff member and 
that the remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people of the highest quality.

Non-executive Directors are remunerated by way of fees and do not participate in profi t or incentive schemes and do not generally receive options, 
incentive payments or retirement benefi ts other than statutory superannuation.

Executive remuneration generally comprises the following elements:

• 

• 

fi xed remuneration, including superannuation and benefi ts, which is set at a level that refl ects the marketplace for each position;

long-term  equity-linked  performance  incentives,  in  the  form  of  share  options,  which  incorporate  exercise  restrictions  based  on  continuity  of 
employment and the achievement of certain individual and fi nancial performance hurdles.

Cash bonuses may also be issued at the discretion of the Board. The Company does not generally offer contracted cash bonuses as part of a short term 
incentive program, but may do so in special circumstances.

Further details of the Company’s remuneration policies and practices in relation to the Directors and executives can be found in the Directors’ Report 
under the heading ‘Remuneration Report’.

COMMUNICATION WITH SHAREHOLDERS AND THE MARKET

The  Company’s  commitment  to  communicating  with  its  shareholders  is  embodied  in  its  Shareholder  Communication  Policy  and  its  Continuous 
Disclosure Policy, which contain policies and procedures on information and disclosure to facilitate continuous disclosure of any information concerning 
the Group that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price of the Company’s securities. While the Company’s commitment 
to communicating with its Shareholder’s is unchanged, given the uncertainty in respect of proposed changes to the FBT treatment of motor vehicles, the 
Company has suspended all communication with investment analysts, Shareholders, the press etc until after the election, unless the position becomes 
clearer beforehand. As soon as possible after the declaration of the election winner, the Company will update the market on the prospects of the novated 
leasing component of our Group Remuneration Services segment and the business more generally. The Company will, of course, continue to provide

Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB), and Corporations Act 2001. McMillan Shakespeare Limited is a for-profi t 
entity for the purpose of preparing the fi nancial statements. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these fi nancial statements 
are presented below and have been applied consistently unless stated otherwise.

Except for cash fl ow information, the fi nancial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modifi ed, 
where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, fi nancial assets and fi nancial liabilities.

Compliance with IFRS

Australian  Accounting  Standards  incorporate  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  (IFRSs)  as  issued  by  the  International  Accounting 
Standards Board. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the fi nancial statements and notes also comply with IFRSs.

(c)  Principles of consolidation

(i)  Subsidiaries

The consolidated fi nancial statements comprise the fi nancial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at 30 June each year.

Subsidiaries  are  entities  over  which  the  Consolidated  Group  has  the  power  to  govern  the  fi nancial  and  operating  policies,  generally 
accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. Potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible 
are considered when assessing control. Consolidated fi nancial statements include all subsidiaries from the date that control commences until 
the date that control ceases. The fi nancial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent entity, using 
consistent accounting policies.

All inter-company balances and transactions, including unrealised profi ts arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated. Unrealised 
losses are also eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the individual fi nancial 
statements of the parent entity, including the value of options issued by the Company on behalf of its subsidiaries in relation to employee 
remuneration. 

(ii)  Joint ventures

The  Consolidated  Group  has  an  interest  in  a  joint  venture,  where  by  contractual  agreement,  the  joint  venture  partners  jointly  control  the 
economic activities and key decisions of the joint venture entity. The arrangement requires unanimous consent of the parties for key strategic, 
fi nancial and operating policies that govern the joint venture. The Consolidated Group’s interest in the joint venture entity is accounted for 
using the equity method after initially recognising the investment at cost. 

Under the equity method, the post-acquisition share of profi ts and losses of the joint venture entity is recognised in profi t and loss, and the 
share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Group’s share 
of losses exceeds its interest in the joint venture entity, the carrying amount of that interest, including any long-term interests that form part 
thereof, is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has 
made payments on behalf of the joint venture entity. The Consolidated Group’s share of intra-group balances, transactions and unrealised 
gains or losses on such transactions between the Group and the joint venture are eliminated.

(d)  Business combinations

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations. Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, shares 
issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred. Where equity instruments 
are issued, the value of the equity instruments is their published market price on the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be 
demonstrated that the published price on the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods 
provide a more reliable measure of fair value. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

Identifi able assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in business combinations are initially measured at their fair values at 
acquisition date. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Consolidated Group’s share of the identifi able net assets acquired 
is recorded as goodwill (refer Note 1(h)(i)). If the cost of acquisition is less than the Consolidated Group’s share of the fair value of the net assets 
acquired, the gain is recognised in profi t or loss. If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the time of reporting the 
period in which the business combination occurred, provisional estimates are used for items for which accounting is incomplete. These provisional 
estimates are adjusted in a measurement period that is not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition to refl ect the information it was seeking 
about facts and circumstances that existed at the date of acquisition that had they been known would have affected the amounts recognised at
that date.

Where settlement of any part of the cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to the present value at the date 
of the exchange using the entity’s incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

(e)  Income tax

(i) 

Income tax

The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for 
each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and unused tax losses.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in 
the countries where the entities in the Group operate and generate taxable income.

(ii)  Deferred tax

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  recognised  for  all  temporary  differences  between  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  for 
fi nancial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases, at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities 
settled, based on those rates which are enacted or substantially enacted. Deferred tax is not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition 
of goodwill. Deferred tax assets are only recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses if it is probable that future 
taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised for 
temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of investments in subsidiaries where the parent entity is able to control the 
timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Current and deferred tax on items that are accounted for in other comprehensive income or equity are recognised in other comprehensive 
income and equity respectively. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets 
and liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxing authority.

(iii)  Tax consolidation

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities are members of a tax consolidated group under Australian taxation law. The 
Company is the head entity in the tax consolidated group. Entities within the tax consolidated group have entered into a tax funding agreement 
and a tax-sharing agreement with the head entity. Under the terms of the tax funding arrangement, the Company and each of the entities in 
the tax consolidated group have agreed to pay a tax equivalent payment to or from the head entity, based on the current tax liability or current 
tax asset of the head entity.

(iv)  Investment allowances

Companies within the Group may be entitled to claim special tax deductions for investments in qualifying assets (investment allowances) 
or a tax credit under the Incentive regime in Australia  in relation to eligible Research & Development expenditure. The Consolidated Group 
accounts for such allowances as a reduction in income tax payable and current tax expense. A deferred tax asset is recognised for unclaimed 
tax credits.

(f)  Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations

Non-current assets are classifi ed as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through 
continuing use. Non-current assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The criteria 
for classifi cation as held for sale is satisfi ed when the sale is highly probable, the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and 
management is committed to the sale, is expected to successfully complete the sale within one year from the date of classifi cation.

A discontinued operation represents a major line of business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of or is classifi ed as held 
for sale, or is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively 
with a view to resale. Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and presented as a single amount as profi t or 
loss after tax from discontinued operations in the income statement.

(g)  Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly 
attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

Depreciation on assets is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:

Class of Fixed Asset

Plant and equipment

Software

Motor vehicles under operating lease

Depreciation Rate

20% – 40%

20% – 33% 

25% – 33% 

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

Motor vehicles no longer held under an operating lease are classifi ed as inventory.

(h)  Intangible assets

(i)  Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Consolidated Group’s share of the net fair value of the 
identifi able assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Goodwill is not amortised but is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment 
losses. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying 
value may be impaired (refer Note 15(c)). Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to 
the entity sold. Any impairment is recognised immediately in the statement of profi t or loss and other comprehensive income and cannot be 
subsequently reversed.

(ii)  Capitalised software development costs

Software development costs are capitalised when it is probable that future economic benefi ts attributable to the software will fl ow to the entity 
through revenue generation and / or cost reduction. Development costs include external direct costs for services, materials and licences and 
internal labour related costs directly involved in the development of the software. Capitalised software development costs are amortised from 
the date of commissioning on a straight line basis over three to fi ve years, during which the benefi ts are expected to be realised

(iii)  Contract rights

Contract rights acquired and amounts paid for contract rights are recognised at the value of consideration paid plus any expenditure directly 
attributable to the transactions. Contracts are amortised over the life of the contract, and reviewed annually for indicators of impairment in line 
with the Consolidated Group’s impairment policy (refer Note 1(i)).

(iv)  Intangible assets acquired in a business combination

Any potential intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identifi ed and recognised separately from goodwill where they satisfy 
the defi nition of an intangible asset and their fair value can be measured reliably.

(i) 

Impairment of assets

At each reporting date, the Consolidated Group reviews the carrying amount of its tangible (including operating lease assets) and intangible assets 
to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable 
amount of the affected assets are evaluated. An impairment loss is recognised in profi t or loss for the amount that the asset’s carrying value exceeds 
the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is determined as the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in 
use. For the purpose of assessing fair value, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifi able cash infl ows which are 
largely independent of cash infl ows from other assets (cash-generating units). Where the asset does not generate cash fl ows that are independent 
from other assets, the Consolidated Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

For assets other than goodwill where impairment losses previously recognised no longer exist or have decreased, the amount is reversed to the 
extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the recoverable amount, nor the carrying amount that would have been determined had no 
impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is indication that the asset may be impaired. An impairment of goodwill is not 
subsequently reversed. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated 
future cash fl ows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that refl ects current market assessments of the time value of 
money and the risks specifi c to the asset for which the estimates of future cash fl ows have not been adjusted.

Operating lease assets are reviewed for impairment on an ongoing basis and at reporting date using both internal and external sources of information.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

(j)  Financial instruments

Recognition and de-recognition

Regular purchases and sales of fi nancial assets and liabilities are recognised on trade date, the date on which the Consolidated Group commits to 
the fi nancial assets or liabilities. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash fl ows from the fi nancial assets have expired or 
have been transferred and the Consolidated Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

(i)  Cash and cash equivalents

For statement of cash fl ow purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with fi nancial institutions, other 
short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash 
which are subject to an insignifi cant risk of changes in value.

(ii)  Loans and receivables

Trade and other receivables

All  receivables  are  classifi ed  as  ‘loans  and  receivables’  under  the  requirements  of  AASB  139  Financial  Instruments:  Recognition  and 
Measurement and are recognised initially at fair value, and subsequently at amortised cost, less provision for impairment. All trade and other 
receivables are classifi ed as current as they are due for settlement within the agreed credit terms of settlement which are usually no more than 
30 days from the date of recognition. Cash fl ows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Loan receivables

Loan receivables are non-derivative fi nancial assets with fi xed or determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market. They are 
included in current assets, where their maturities are less than 12 months from reporting date and in non-current assets if longer.

Loan  receivables  that  have  the  ability  to  convert  to  a  specifi ed  amount  of  equity  shares  of  the  borrower  in  restitution  for  defaulting  loan 
repayments  are  designated  as  available-for-sale  fi nancial  assets.  These  assets  are  measured  at  fair  value  at  inception  and  subsequently, 
marked to market at reporting date with the movement taken to reserves. In measuring fair value at reporting date, the net present value of the 
loan is calculated using market interest rates at reporting date, or if it is probable that the loan receivable will be converted to shares of the 
borrower, the market value of the underlying shares attributable to the loan receivable is used.

(iii)  Other fi nancial assets

Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost and adjusted for any share based payments in the separate fi nancial statements of the Company, 
under AASB 127: Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.

(iv)  Available-for-sale fi nancial assets

Available-for-sale fi nancial assets are non-derivative assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classifi ed in any other category 
of fi nancial assets. They include investments and debt instruments such as subordinated loans that may be convertible to equity. Available-for-
sale fi nancial assets are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures or is intended to be disposed of within twelve months 
of the end of the reporting period.

(v)  Other fi nancial liabilities

Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables, including accruals, and borrowings are recorded initially at fair value, and subsequently at amortised cost using the 
effective interest rate method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. 

The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a fi nancial liability and that allocates interest expense over 
the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future payments through the expected life of the 
fi nancial liability to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Trade and other payables are non-interest bearing.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire pursuant to its commitments. The 
difference between its carrying amount of the fi nancial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profi t 
or loss.

(vi)  Impairment of fi nancial assets

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Impairment conditions are objective evidence 
of one or more events occurring after the initial recognition of the fi nancial asset that affects estimated future cash fl ows of the investment.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

(vii)  Impairment of trade and other receivables

The collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis and debts that are determined as not collectable are written off and expensed. 
An allowance for impairment is provided for when there is objective evidence that the Consolidated Group will not be able to collect all 
amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The provision consists of allowances for specifi c doubtful amounts.

The allowance account for receivables is used to record impairment losses unless the Consolidated Group is satisfi ed that there is no possible 
recovery of the amount, at which point it is written off directly against the amount owing. The impairment loss and any subsequent reversal 
thereof, is recognised in the Statement of Profi t or Loss within other expenses. There have been no amounts recorded for impairment for the 
parent entity.

(viii) Impairment of available for sale equity securities

In respect of available for sale equity securities, impairment losses previously recognised in profi t or loss are not reversed through profi t 
or  loss.  Any  increase  in  fair  value  subsequent  to  an  impairment  loss  is  recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income  and  accumulated  in 
investment revaluation reserve within equity. In respect of available for sale debt securities, impairment losses are subsequently reversed 
through profi t or loss if an increase in the fair value of the investment can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of 
the impairment loss.

(k)  Employee benefi ts 

(i)  Salaries and wages, annual leave and long service leave

Liabilities for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to reporting date which are expected to be settled within twelve 
months after the end of the reporting date have been recognised and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are 
settled. Other employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outfl ows to 
be made for those benefits. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods 
of service. Expected future payments are discounted using interest rates attaching to national government guaranteed securities with terms to 
maturity that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outfl ows. Annual leave and long service leave liabilities are included in 
provisions and other employee liabilities are included in other payables.

(ii)  Superannuation 

The  amount  charged  to  the  Statement  of  Comprehensive  Income  in  respect  of  superannuation  represents  the  contributions  made  by  the 
Consolidated Group to superannuation funds.

(iii)  Bonuses 

A liability for employee benefits in the form of bonuses is recognised in employee benefits. This liability is based upon pre-determined 
plans tailored for each participating employee and is measured on an ongoing basis during the fi nancial period.  The amount of bonuses 
is  dependent  on  the  outcomes  for  each  participating  employee.  An  additional  amount  is  included  where  the  Board  has  decided  to  pay 
discretionary bonuses for exceptional performance.

(l)  Revenue

Revenue is recognised at the fair value of consideration received or receivable to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefi ts will fl ow 
to the Consolidated Group and can be reliably measured. Amounts disclosed as revenue are shown net of returns, trade allowances and duties, 
amortisation of pre-paid fee discounts included in deferred contract establishment costs and taxes paid. The following specific criteria must also 
be met before revenue is recognised:

(i)  Rendering of services

Revenue from services provided is recognised when the service is provided to the customer..

(ii) 

Interest

Revenue from interest is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate method uses the 
rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash fl ows over the expected life of the fi nancial asset

(iii)  Dividends

Revenue from dividends is recognised when the Consolidated Group’s right to receive payment is established.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

(iv)  Lease revenue (property, plant and equipment)

Operating lease rental revenue is made up of operating lease interest and the principal that forms the net investment in the leased asset. 
Interest included in operating lease instalments is calculated on a straight-line basis for each customer contract based on the effective rate 
method using the interest rate in the lease contract, the net investment value of the leased asset and the residual value. The principal portion 
upon receipt reduces the net investment in the leased asset.

(v)  Sale of leased assets

Revenue includes the proceeds from the routine sale of motor vehicles previously leased and included within property, plant and equipment 
following the cessation of the rental of these assets by a customer.

(vi)  Vehicle maintenance services

Revenues from maintenance service contracts are recognised for services rendered when it is probable that economic benefi ts from the transaction 
will fl ow to the Consolidated Group. When the amounts are uncollectable or recovery is not considered probable, an expense is recognised 
immediately. Revenue is recognised for each reporting period by reference to the stage of completion when the outcome of the service contracts 
can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion of service contracts is based on the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to total estimated 
costs. When the outcome cannot be measured reliably, revenue is deferred and recognised 60 days after the contract terminates.

(m)  Goods and services tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not 
recoverable from the Australian Taxation Offi ce (ATO). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or 
as part of an item of expense. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST 
recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the Statement of Financial Position.

(n)  Leasing

Leases are classified as fi nance leases whenever the terms of the contract transfers substantially all the risk and rewards of ownership to the lessee. 
All other contracts are classified as operating leases.

(i)  Finance lease receivable portfolio

Lease contracts with customers are recognised as fi nance lease receivables at the Consolidated Group’s net investment in the lease which 
equals the net present value of the future minimum lease payments. Finance lease income is recognised as income in the period to refl ect a 
constant periodic rate of return on the Consolidated Group’s remaining net investment in respect of the lease.

(ii)  Operating lease portfolio – the Group as lessor

Lease contracts with customers other than fi nance leases are recognised as operating leases. The Consolidated Group’s initial investment in 
the lease is added as a cost to the carrying value of the leased assets and recognised as lease income on a straight line basis over the term 
of the lease. Operating lease assets are amortised as an expense on a straight line over the term of the lease based on the cost less residual 
value of the lease.

(o)  Share-based payments

The fair values of options granted are recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity (share option reserve). 
The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. 
Fair value is determined using a binomial option pricing model. In determining fair value, no account is taken of any performance conditions other 
than those related to the share price of the Company (“market conditions”). The cumulative expense recognised between grant date and vesting 
date is adjusted to refl ect the Directors’ best estimate of the number of options that will ultimately vest because of internal conditions attached to 
the options, such as the employees having to remain with the Consolidated Group until vesting date, or such that employees are required to meet 
internal targets. No expense is recognised for options that do not ultimately vest because internal conditions were not met. An expense is still 
recognised for options that do not ultimately vest because a market condition was not met.

(p)  Issued capital

Ordinary shares and premium received on issue of options are classifi ed as issued capital within equity.

Costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown as a deduction from the equity proceeds, net of any income tax benefit. Costs 
directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options associated with the acquisition of a business are included as part of the business combination.

(q)  Dividends

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the Consolidated 
Group, on or before the end of the fi nancial year but not distributed at balance date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

(r)  Earnings per share

(i)  Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to members of the Company by the weighted average number of 
ordinary shares outstanding during the fi nancial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares during the year. 

(ii)  Diluted earnings per share

Earnings and the weighted average number of shares used in calculating basic earnings per share is adjusted for the following to calculate 
diluted earnings per share:

• 

• 

the after-tax effect of interest and any other fi nancing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares; and

 the weighted average number of additional shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential 
ordinary shares.

(s)  Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating 
decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing the performance of the operating segments, has been identifi ed as the 
Chief Executive Offi cer.

(t)  Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Consolidated Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and where it is 
probable that the Consolidated Group is required to settle the obligation, and the obligation can be reliably estimated. 

Provisions are measured at the present value of expenditure expected at settlement. The discount rate used to determine the present value refl ects 
the current pre-tax market rate of the time value of money and the risks specifi c to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of 
time is recognised as interest expense.

Restructurings 

A restructuring provision is recognised when the Consolidated Group has developed a plan for the restructuring and has communicated with those 
affected that it will carry out the plan. The provision is measured based on the direct cost arising from and necessary to undertake the restructuring 
plan and not with the ongoing activities of the Group.

(u)  Inventories

The inventory of motor vehicles is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Following termination of the lease or rental contract the 
relevant assets are transferred from Assets under Operating Lease to Inventories at their carrying amount. Net realisable value is the estimated 
selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs to make the sale.

(v)  Operating cash fl ow

All cash fl ows other than investing or fi nancing cash fl ows are classified as operating cash fl ows. As the asset management segment provides 
operating and fi nance leases for motor vehicles and equipment, the cash outfl ows to acquire the lease assets are classified as operating cash 
outfl ows. Similarly, interest received and interest paid in respect of the asset management segment are classified as operating cash fl ows.

(w)  Borrowings

Borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate 
method. The effective interest rate method exactly discounts the estimated cash flows through the expected life of the borrowing. Transaction costs 
comprise fees paid for the establishment of loan facilities and are amortised over the term of the borrowing facilities.

(x)  Derivative fi nancial instruments

The Consolidated Group uses derivative fi nancial instruments to manage its interest rate exposure to interest rate volatility and its impact on leasing 
product margins. The process to mitigate against the exposure seeks to have more control in balancing the spread between interest rates charged 
to lease contracts and interest rates and the level of borrowings assumed in its fi nancing as required. 

In accordance with the Consolidated Group’s treasury policy, derivative interest rate products that can be entered into include interest rate swaps, 
forward rate agreements and options as cash fl ow hedges to mitigate both current and future interest rate volatility that may arise from changes in 
the fair value of its borrowings.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

Derivative fi nancial instruments are recognised at fair value at the date of inception and subsequently re-measured at fair value at reporting date. The 
resulting gain or loss is recognised in profi t or loss unless the derivative or amount thereof is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in 
which case the gain or loss is taken to other comprehensive income in the cash fl ow hedging reserve that forms part of equity. Amounts recognised 
in other comprehensive income are transferred to profi t or loss and subsequently recognised in profi t or loss to match the timing and relationship 
with the amount that the derivative instrument was intended to hedge.

(i)  Hedge accounting

At the inception of the hedging instrument, the Group documents the relationship between the instrument and the item it is designated to 
hedge. The Group also documents its assessment at the inception of the hedging instrument and on an ongoing basis, whether the hedging 
instruments that are used have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash fl ows of the hedged items.

(ii)  Embedded derivatives

Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the defi nition of a derivative, their 
risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not measured at fair value through 
profi t or loss.

(iii)  Non-trading derivatives

Non-trading derivative fi nancial instruments include the Group’s irrevocable option to purchase all of the shares owned by the partner in 
the joint venture entity. The fi nancial instruments are measured at fair value initially and in future reporting dates. Fair value changes are 
recognised in profi t or loss.

(y)  Foreign currency translation

The  consolidated  fi nancial  statements  of  the  Consolidated  Group  are  presented  in  Australian  dollars  which  is  the  functional  and  presentation 
currency. The fi nancial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the 
entity operates (“functional currency”).

(i)  Transactions and balances

Foreign  currency  transactions  are  translated  into  the  functional  currency  using  the  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the  dates  of  the  transactions. 
Differences resulting at settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities at reporting date are recognised 
in profi t or loss. 

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the 
initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the 
fair value is determined. Translation differences are recognised as part of the fair value change of the non-monetary item.

(ii)  Group companies

On consolidation of the fi nancial results and affairs of foreign operations, assets and liabilities are translated at prevailing exchange rates at reporting 
date and income and expenses for the year at average exchange rates. The resulting exchange differences from consolidation are recognised in other 
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to 
that particular foreign operation is recognised in profi t or loss.

(z)  Critical judgements and signifi cant accounting estimates

The preparation of fi nancial statements requires the Board to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting 
policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate 
is revised and in any future periods affected. 

All signifi cant judgements, estimates and assumptions made during the year have been considered for signifi cance. Key assumptions used for 
value-in-use calculations to determine the recoverable amount of assets in impairment tests are discussed in Note 15(d). 

Estimates of signifi cance are used in determining the residual values of operating lease and rental assets at the end of the contract date and 
income from maintenance services, which is recognised on a percentage stage of completion. In determining residual values, critical judgements 
include the future value of the asset lease portfolio at the time of sale, economic and vehicle market conditions and dynamics. For income from 
maintenance contracts, judgement is made in relation to expected realisable margins. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on 
an ongoing basis. 

No other judgements, estimates or assumptions are considered signifi cant.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

(aa) New accounting standards and interpretations

None of the new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations that are mandatory for the fi rst time for the fi nancial year beginning 
1 July 2012 affected any of the amounts recognised in the current period or any prior period and are not likely to affect future periods. However, 
amendments to AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements effective 1 July 2012 now require the statement of comprehensive income to show 
items of comprehensive income grouped into those that are not permitted to be re-classifi ed to profi t or loss in a future period and those that may 
have to be re-classifi ed if certain conditions are met.

The following new accounting standards, amendments to standards and interpretations (Standards) have been issued and are effective for annual 
reporting periods beginning after 30 June 2013, but have not been applied in preparing this fi nancial report. None of these are expected to have 
a signifi cant effect on the fi nancial report of the Consolidated Group unless otherwise noted in the Standards below. The Consolidated Group has 
not or does not plan to adopt these Standards early and the extent of their impact has not been fully determined unless otherwise noted below.

(i)  AASB 9 Financial Instruments (effective for annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2015)

AASB 9 to date introduces new requirements for the classifi cation and measurement of fi nancial assets and liabilities and for de-recognition 
of fi nancial liabilities. It aims to replace AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement in its entirety. The changes in AASB 
9 are not expected to materially affect the Group’s accounting for fi nancial assets, as there are no fi nancial liabilities designated at fair value 
through profi t or loss where the changes might have had an impact.

The Group will adopt the new standard at the operative date and accordingly, its fi rst application will be in the fi nancial statements for the 
annual reporting period ending 30 June 2014.

(ii)  AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (effective for annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2013), AASB 2011-7 ‘Amendments 

to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Venture Arrangements Standards’.

AASB 10 replaces all previous guidance on control and consolidation in AASB 127 ‘Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements’. It 
revises the defi nition of control and is now focused on having the exposure, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement in the 
activities of the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. The Group does not expect the new 
standard to have any signifi cant impact on its composition in the context of the various entities that it currently controls.

The Group will adopt the new standard from the operative date and accordingly, its fi rst application will be in the fi nancial statements for the 
annual reporting period ending 30 June 2014.

(iii)  AASB 11 Joint Arrangements (effective for annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2013, AASB 2011-7 ‘Amendments to Australian 

Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Venture Arrangements Standards’.

This Standard replaces AASB 131 ‘Interests in Joint Ventures’ and introduces a principles based approach to accounting for joint arrangements. 
The emphasis is no longer on the legal structure of the joint arrangement, but rather on how rights and obligations are shared by parties  under 
the contractual agreement and then account for those rights and obligations in accordance with the type of joint arrangement entered into, 
being either joint operation or joint venture. Parties to a joint operation will account for their share of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities 
in much the same way under the current standard. Joint ventures will now be equity accounted and the choice available under the current 
standard for proportional consolidation will no longer be available. 

The Group’s investment in a joint venture partnership will be classifi ed as a joint venture under the new rules and equity accounted as it is 
currently. AASB 11 will not have an impact on the amounts recognised in the fi nancial statements.

The Group will adopt the new standard from the operative date and accordingly, its fi rst application will be in the fi nancial statements for the 
annual reporting period ending 30 June 2014.

(iv)  AASB 12 Disclosure of Interest in Other Entities (effective for annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2013) , AASB 2011-7 ‘Amendments 

to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Venture Arrangements Standards’.

AASB 12 integrates the required disclosures when applying the two new standards, AASB 10 and AASB 11. The standard requires increased 
disclosure of the nature and risks associated with interests in other entities and the effects of those interests on its fi nancial position, fi nancial 
performance and cash fl ows. Application of this standard will not affect the amounts recognised in the fi nancial statements, but will have an 
impact on the type of information disclosed in relation to the Group’s investments.

The Group will adopt the new standard from the operative date and accordingly, its fi rst application will be in the fi nancial statements for the 
annual reporting period ending 30 June 2016.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

(v)  AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (2011) (effective for annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2013), AASB 
2011-7 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Venture Arrangements Standards’.

Amendments  in  this  standard  supersedes  AASB  128  ‘Investments  in  Associates’  and  prescribes  the  equity  method  of  accounting  for 
investments in associates and joint ventures and also how investments should be tested for impairment. The Group’s investment in a joint 
venture is currently equity accounted and this standard is not expected to have any signifi cant impact on the amounts recognised in the 
fi nancial statements.

The Group will adopt the new standard from the operative date and accordingly, its fi rst application will be in the fi nancial statements for the 
annual reporting period ending 30 June 2014.

(vi)  AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement (effective for annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2013) and AASB 2011-8 ‘Amendments to 

Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 13’.

AASB 13 explains how to measure fair value and aims to enhance fair value disclosures. The standard is broad and applies to both fi nancial 
instruments and non-fi nancial instruments for which other Australian Accounting Standards require or permit fair value measurements and 
disclosure. The Group does not anticipate the new standard to have a signifi cant impact on the manner in which fair values are currently 
derived.

The Group will adopt the new standard from the operative date and accordingly, its fi rst application will be in the fi nancial statements for the 
annual reporting period ending 30 June 2014.

(vii)  AASB 119 Employee Benefi ts (effective for annual reporting periods on or after 1 January 2013), AASB 2011-10 ‘Amendments to Australian 

Accounting Standards arising from AASB 119’.

The most signifi cant changes in AASB 119 relate to the accounting for defi ned benefi t plans for which the Consolidated Group has none. The 
standard also revised the defi nition of short-term employee benefi ts. The distinction between short-term and long-term employee benefi ts 
is now based on whether the benefi ts are expected to be settled wholly within twelve months after reporting date, and is likely to affect the 
measurement of annual leave. The impact on the Consolidated Group’s measurement of annual leave provision is not considered signifi cant 
given that most employee entitlements are managed for usage within twelve months from reporting date. 

The Group will adopt the new standard from 1 July 2013.

There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that are expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting 
periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

(ab) Changes in accounting policies

In the current year, the Consolidated Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issues by the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period. 

There  have  been  no  signifi cant  effects  on  current,  prior  or  future  periods  arising  from  the  first  time  application  of  the  standards  in  respect  of 
presentation, recognition and measurement in the current year fi nancial statements.

(ac) Parent entity accounts 

In accordance with Class order CO10/654 the Consolidated Group will continue to include parent entity financial statements in the fi nancial report. 

(ad) Rounding of amounts

The Company is of a kind referred to in Class order CO98/100, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to the 
“rounding off” of amounts in the fi nancial report.  Amounts in the fi nancial report have been rounded off in accordance with that Class Order to the 
nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

2  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Consolidated Group’s activities expose it to a variety of fi nancial risk: market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and 
liquidity risk. The Consolidated Group’s overall risk management approach is to identify the risk exposures and implement safeguards which seek to 
manage these exposures and minimise potential adverse effects on the fi nancial performance of the Consolidated Group. The Board is responsible 
for monitoring and managing the fi nancial risks of the Consolidated Group. The Board monitors these risks through monthly board meetings, via 
regular reports from the Risk and Compliance Committee and ad hoc discussions with senior management, should the need arise. A top 20 risk 
report is presented to the Board monthly and the full risk register at least quarterly. The Credit and Treasury reports are provided to the Interest 
Committee and Credit Committee respectively, by the Group Treasurer and Credit Manager, including sensitivity analysis in the case of interest 
rate risk and aging / exposure reports for credit risk. These committee reports are discussed at Board meetings monthly, along with management 
accounts.  All exposures to risk and management strategies are consistent with prior year, other than as noted below.

(a)  Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Consolidated Group will not be able to meet its fi nancial obligations as they fall due.

Liquidity management strategy

The Asset Management business and the resultant borrowings exposes the Consolidated Group to potential mismatches between the refi nancing 
of its assets and liabilities. The Consolidated Group’s objective is to maintain continuity and fl exibility of funding through the use of committed 
revolving bank club facilities based on common terms, asset subordination and surplus cash as appropriate to match asset and liability requirements. 

The Consolidated Group’s policy is to ensure that there is suffi cient liquidity through access to committed available funds to meet at least twelve 
months of average net asset funding requirements. This level is expected to cover any short term fi nancial market constraint for funds. 

The  Consolidated  Group  monitors  monthly  positive  operating  cash  fl ows  and  forecasts  cash  fl ows  for  twelve  month  period.  Signifi cant  cash 
deposits have been maintained which enable the Consolidated Group to settle obligations as they fall due without the need for short term fi nancing 
facilities. The Chief Financial Offi cer and the Group Treasurer monitor the cash position of the Consolidated Group daily.

Financing arrangements

During the year the Consolidated Group increased its committed borrowing facilities for the Asset Management segment from $180m to $270m. 
The increased facility has been provided by the formation of a fi nancing club with common terms and conditions. The Company believes that this 
initiative has improved liquidity, provides funding diversifi cation and has achieved a lower cost. The maturity date for these facilities have been 
extended to 20 August 2015. 

At reporting date, $182m of the committed revolving facilities were drawn down with the balance of $88m that can be drawn down at any time. The 
level and type of funding will be reviewed on an on-going basis to ensure they meet the Group’s on-going requirements.

Maturities of fi nancial liabilities

The  table  below  analyses  the  Consolidated  Group’s  and  the  parent  entity’s  fi nancial  liabilities  into  relevant  maturity  groupings  based  on  their 
contractual maturities and based on the remaining period to the expected settlement date. 

The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash fl ows.  Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying value as the 
impact of discounting is not signifi cant.

(b)  Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Consolidated Group if a customer or counter-party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual 
obligations. The Company and Consolidated Group have exposure to credit risk through the receivables’ balances, customer leasing commitments 
and deposits with banks. The following carrying amount of fi nancial assets represents the maximum credit exposure at reporting date.

Lease assets of the Asset Management business represents future lease rentals that have yet to be invoiced. Such assets are secured against 
underlying assets.

Credit risk management strategy 

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks as well as exposure from outstanding receivables and unbilled future 
rentals  for  leased  vehicles.  For  deposits  with  banks,  only  independently  rated  institutions  with  upper  investment-grade  ratings  are  used  in 
accordance with the Board approved Investment Policy. 

Credit risk relating to the leasing of assets is managed pursuant to the Board approved Credit Policy by the Group CFO and the Group Treasurer 
and Credit Manager. The policy is reviewed annually and prescribes minimum criteria in the credit assessment process that includes credit risk 
of the customer, concentration risk parameters, type and intended use of the asset under lease and the value of the exposure. A two tiered Credit 
Committee  structure  is  in  place  to  stratify  credit  applications  for  assessment;  a  Local  Credit  Committee  and  an  Executive  Credit  Committee 
reviewing applications based on volume, nature and value of the application. All minutes of the Credit Committee meetings are reported to the 
Board. The Board receives a monthly report from the Credit Committee and periodically reviews  concentration limits that effectively spread the 
risks as widely as possible across asset classes, client base, industries and asset manufacturer. There are no signifi cant concentrations of credit 
risk through the Consolidated Group’s exposure to individual customers, industry sectors, asset manufacturers or regions.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

Where customers are independently rated, these ratings are taken into account. If there is no independent offi cial rating, management assesses the 
credit quality of the customer using the Group’s internal risk rating, taking into account information from an independent national credit bureau, its 
financial position, business segment, past experience and other factors using an application scorecard or other risk-assessment tools. Collateral is 
also obtained where appropriate, as a means of mitigating risk of fi nancial loss from defaults. The overall debtor aging position is reviewed monthly 
by the Board, as is the provision for any impairment in the trade receivables balance.

(c)  Market risk

(i) 

Interest rate risk

The Consolidated Group’s strong cash fl ow from operations and borrowings exposes the Consolidated Group to movements in interest rates 
where movements could directly affect the margins from existing contracts and the pricing of new contracts for assets leased and income 
earned from surplus cash. 

Exposure  to  interest  rate  volatility  is  managed  via  the  Consolidated  Group’s  Treasury  and  pricing  policies.  The  policies  aim  to  minimise 
mismatches between the amortised value of lease contracts and the sources of financing to mitigate repricing and basis risk.  Mismatch 
and funding graphs including sensitivity analysis, which are reported monthly to the Board along with the minutes of the monthly Interest 
Committee meetings.

Interest rate risk arises where movements in interest rates affect the net margins on existing contracts for assets leased. As the Consolidated 
Group carries signifi cant cash and borrowings, movements in interest rates can affect net income to the Consolidated Group, particularly for 
the Consolidated Group Remuneration services segment.

Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Consolidated Group to repricing interest rate risk. As at the end of the reporting period, the 
Consolidated Group had $182,000,000 (2012: $156,000,000) variable rate borrowings under long-term revolving facilities attributable to the 
Asset Management business and no borrowings for other Consolidated Group requirements. The weighted average interest rate was 4.06% 
(2012: 5.07%) for the $182,000,000 (2012: $156,000,000) which is used as an input to asset repricing decisions. An analysis of maturities 
is provided in note 2(a).

To mitigate the cash fl ow volatility arising from interest rate movements, the Group has entered into interest rate swaps with counterparties 
rated  as  AA-  by  Standard  and  Poors,  to  exchange,  at  specifi ed  periods,  the  difference  between  fi xed  and  variable  rate  interest  amounts 
calculated on contracted notional principal amounts. The contracts require settlement of net interest receivable or payable on a quarterly basis. 
These swaps are designated to hedge underlying borrowing obligations and match the interest-repricing profi le of the lease portfolio in order 
to preserve the contracted net interest margin. At 30 June 2013, the Consolidated Group’s borrowings for the Asset Management business of 
$182,000,000 (2012: $156,000,000) were covered by interest rate swaps at a fi xed rate of interest of 4.72% (2012:  5.58%). 

The Consolidated Group’s interest rate risk also arises from cash at bank and deposits, which are at floating interest rates. 

At reporting date, the Consolidated Group had the following variable rate fi nancial assets and liabilities outstanding:

Cash and deposits

Bank loans (Asset Management segment)

Interest rate swaps (notional amounts)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

Sensitivity analysis – floating interest rates:

At 30 June 2013, the Consolidated Group’s and parent entity’s cash and cash equivalents give rise to credit and interest rate risk. If the Australian 
interest rate weakened or strengthened by 100 basis points, being the Consolidated Group’s view of possible fl uctuation, and all other variables 
were held constant, the Consolidated Group’s post-tax profit for the year would have been $365,673 (2012: $597,940) higher or lower and the 
parent entity $3,700 (2012: $51,233) higher or lower, depending on which way the interest rates moved based on the cash and cash equivalents 
and borrowings balances at reporting date.

(ii)  Foreign currency risk

The Consolidated Group’s transactions are pre-dominantly denominated Australian dollars which is the functional and presentation currency. 

(iii)  Other market price risk

The Consolidated Group does not engage in any transactions that give rise to any other market risks.

(d)  Asset risk

The Consolidated Group’s exposure to asset risk is mainly from the residual value of assets under lease and the maintenance and tyre obligations to 
meet claims for these services sold to customers. Residual value is an estimate of the value of an asset at the end of the lease. This estimate, which 
is formed at the inception of the lease and any subsequent impairment, exposes the Consolidated Group to potential loss from resale if the market 
price is lower than the value as recorded in the books. The risk relating to maintenance and tyre services arises where the costs to meet customer 
claims over the contracted period exceed estimates made at inception. 

The  Consolidated  Group  continuously  reviews  the  portfolio’s  residual  values  via  a  Residual  Value  Committee  comprising  experienced  senior 
staff with a balance of disciplines and responsibilities, who measure and report all matters of risk that could potentially affect residual values 
and maintenance costs and matters that can mitigate the Consolidated Group from these exposures. The asset risk policy sets out a framework to 
measure and factor into their assessment such critical variables as used car market dynamics, economic conditions, government policies, the credit 
market and the condition of assets under lease. 

At reporting date, the portfolio of motor vehicles under operating lease of $287,749,000 (2012: $244,023,000) included a residual value provision 
of $2,018,000 (2012: $1,907,000).

(e)  Fair value measurements

The fair value of fi nancial assets and fi nancial liabilities is estimated for recognition and measurement for disclosure purposes.

The following table is an analysis of fi nancial instruments that are measured at fair value subsequent to initial recognition, grouped into three levels 
based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.

• 

• 

Level 1: derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: derived from inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as 
prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

• 

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

The Consolidated Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date by geographic region is predominantly in Australia based on the 
location of trades and economic activity.

Approximately  23%  (2012:  38%)  of  the  Consolidated  Group’s  trade  receivables  relate  to  customers  for  the  supply  of  vehicle  leasing  related 
services.  Management have assessed this concentration of risk and are satisfi ed with the strategies employed in ensuring the exposure to this risk 
is minimal.  Management considers that no other signifi cant concentrations of risk within trade receivables exist.

(c)  Other receivables

These  amounts  generally  arise  from  transactions  outside  the  usual  operating  activities  of  the  Consolidated  Group.  None  of  the  other  current 
receivables are impaired or past due.

The loan receivable is made up of advances to the joint venture entity as part of the working capital facility provided pursuant to the Group’s 
investment arrangement and forms part of the net investment in the joint venture.  Its carrying value includes the share of the joint venture’s loss  
($73,000) recognised under the equity method that is in excess of the Company’s investment in the joint venture ($337,000, refer note 12).

Risk exposure

The maximum facility under the arrangement is GBP1.3 million and is an amortising loan facility with scheduled amounts repayable at specifi ed 
times with the balance fully repayable no later than 31 January 2017. Under certain conditions of default on the repayments, the Group has an option 
to convert a portion of the amount outstanding to increase the Group’s interest in the joint venture from 50% to 60%. The loan accrues interest at 
commercial rates and the balance at reporting date approximates to fair value. At reporting date, the fair value of the option was not material.

venture partner jointly control the economic activities and key decisions of the joint venture entity. The arrangement requires unanimous consent 
of the parties for key strategic, fi nancial and operating policies that govern the joint venture. By agreement, the Consolidated Group assumes 
responsibility for key decisions of the joint venture entity when its interest is greater than 75%. The Group has an option to acquire the residual 
interest in the joint venture entity from the joint venture partner after fi ve years from acquisition and the joint venture partner has an option to sell its 
interest to the Group during the same period. At reporting date, the fair value of the option is not materially different to the carrying value.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

(c)  Impairment test for goodwill

Goodwill is allocated to the Consolidated Group’s cash-generating units (CGUs) identifi ed arising from the acquisitions of subsidiaries.

The carrying amount of goodwill allocated to each CGU:

Maxxia Pty Limited 

Remuneration Services (Qld) Pty Limited

Consolidated Group

24,190

9,102

33,292

2012
$’000

24,190

9,102

33,292

The recoverable amount of each CGU above is determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations use the present value of cash 
fl ow projections based on fi nancial budgets approved by management covering a fi ve-year period.

(d)  Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations

Maxxia Pty Limited 

Discount rate 

2013
%

17.76

2012
%

17.54

Remuneration Services (Qld) Pty Limited
The budgets use historical average growth rates to project revenue. Costs are determined taking into account historical margins and estimated cost 
increases. Cash fl ows beyond the fi ve-year period are extrapolated using a zero growth rate for conservatism. The growth rate does not exceed the 
long-term average growth rate for the business in which the CGU operates.

17.54

17.76

In performing the value-in-use calculations for each CGU, the Consolidated Group has applied pre-tax discount rates to discount the forecast future 
attributable pre-tax cash fl ows. The equivalent pre-tax discount rates are disclosed above. The discount rates used refl ect specifi c risks relating to 
the relevant business each subsidiary is operating in.

These assumptions have been used for the analysis of each CGU within each subsidiary. 

The recoverable amounts of the CGUs exceed the carrying amounts by substantial margins. Consequently, a sensitivity analysis of possible changes 
in key assumptions is not considered necessary.

The parent entity guarantees all bank loans of a subsidiary totalling $182,000,000 (2012: $156,000,000).

Fixed and fl oating charges are provided by the Consolidated Group in respect to fi nancing facilities provided to it by its club fi nanciers. 

The Consolidated Group’s loans are also secured by the following fi nancial undertakings from all the entities in the Consolidated Group.

(i) 

 Consolidated Group bank borrowings is not to exceed 80% of the sum of the Consolidated Group’s aggregate of the written down value of net 
operating lease assets and  fi nance lease receivables.

(ii)  Shareholder’s funds of the Consolidated Group is no less than $115,000,000 at all times.

(iii)  Consolidated Group ratio of consolidated earnings before interest and tax to consolidated interest expense is not less than 3:1.

The Consolidated Group’s borrowings are also secured by negative pledges by the Interleasing Group receiving the loans. This imposes certain 
covenants including a restriction to provide other security over its assets, a cap on its maximum fi nance debt, disposal of a substantial part of its 
business and reduction of its capital.

At all times during the year, the Consolidated Group operated with signifi cant headroom against all of its borrowing covenants.

(b)  Fair value disclosures

The fair value of fi nancial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash fl ows at the current market 
interest rate that is available to the Consolidated Group for similar fi nancial instruments. The fair value of current borrowings approximates the 
carrying amount, as the impact of discounting is not signifi cant.

(c)  Risk exposures

Details of the Consolidated Group’s exposure to risks arising from current and non-current borrowings are set out in Note 2.

Options issued and fully paid at $1.32 each.

Details relating to options issued, exercised and lapsed during the year and options outstanding at the end of the reporting period is set out in
Note 27 on page 55.

(d)  Capital management strategy

The Consolidated Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to 
provide returns for shareholders and benefi ts for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In 
order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Consolidated Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to 
shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Consolidated Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt 
is calculated as long and short term borrowings (excluding derivatives and fi nancial guarantees) less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is 
calculated as equity as shown in the statement of fi nancial position plus net debt.

The Consolidated Groups’ gearing ratio was 39% (2012: 38%) calculated as net debt of $124,486,000 (2012: $101,391,000) divided by total debt 
and equity of $319,921,000 (2012: $269,442,000). 

The Consolidated Group’s Risk and Compliance Committee reviews the capital structure of the Consolidated Group on an on-going basis. As part 
of this review the committee considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital.

21  RESERVES

(a)  Option reserve

Movements in the reserve are detailed in the Statements of Changes in Equity.  The reserve records amounts for the fair value of options granted

24  SEGMENT REPORTING

Reportable segments

(a)  Description of Segments

The Consolidated Group has identifi ed its operating segments based on the internal reports reviewed and used by the Consolidated Group’s chief 
decision maker (the CEO) to determine business performance and resource allocation. Operating segments have been identifi ed after considering 
the nature of the products and services, nature of the production processes, type of customer and distribution methods. 

Two reportable segments have been identifi ed “Group Remuneration Services” and “Asset Management”, in accordance with AASB 8 “Operating 
Segments” based on aggregating operating segments taking into account the nature of the business services and products sold and the associated 
business and fi nancial risks and how they affect the pricing and rates of return.

Group Remuneration Services - This segment provides administrative services in respect of salary packaging and facilitates the settlement of motor 
vehicle novated leases for customers, but does not provide fi nancing. The segment also provides ancillary services associated with motor vehicle 
novated lease products.

Asset Management - This segment provides fi nancing and ancillary management services associated with motor vehicles, commercial vehicles 
and equipment.

(b)  Segment information provided to the Chief Decision Maker 

The following is an analysis of the Consolidated Group’s revenue and results from operations by reportable segment.

Segment revenue above represents sales to external customers and excludes inter-segment sales, consistent with the basis by which the fi nancial 
information is presented to the Chief Decision Maker.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Consolidated Group’s policies. Segment profi t includes the segment’s share 
of centralised general management and operational support services which are shared across segments based on the lowest unit of measurement 
available to allocate shared costs that reasonably measure each segment’s service level requirements and consumption. Segment profi t does 
not include corporate costs of the parent entity, including listing and company fees, director’s fees and fi nance costs relating to borrowings not 
specifi cally sourced for segment operations, costs directly incurred in relation to the acquisition of specifi c acquisition and strategic investment 
targets or interest revenue not directly attributable to a segment.

Included in the revenue for the Group Remuneration Services segment are revenues of $59,159,000 (2012: $52,989,000) from the Consolidated 
Group’s largest customer.

The Consolidated Group’s operations and its customers are located predominantly in Australia.

The Company issued options to certain executives and employees under the McMillan Shakespeare Limited Employee Option Plan. Two types of 
options have been granted under this plan, performance options and voluntary options.

No executive can enter into a transaction that is designed or intended to hedge the executive’s exposure to any unvested option. Executives will be 
required to provide declarations to the Board on their compliance with this policy from time to time.

Performance Options 

Performance options over unissued ordinary shares in the Company are granted for no consideration and are, other than as disclosed in this Annual 
Report, granted at or above market prices prevailing when the Board approved the issue. Performance options carry no dividend or voting rights. 
Once exercised, each option is converted into one fully paid ordinary share in the Company. 

The Remuneration Committee recommends to the Board the number of performance options to be granted on the basis of the position, duties and 
responsibilities of the relevant executive. 

As at 30 June 2013, the Company had made fourteen offers of performance options in March 2004, December 2004, April 2005, August 2005, 
February  2007,  December  2007,  July  2008,  November  2008,  August  2009  and  May  2010,  August  2011,  October  2011,  March  2012  and
July 2012. Many of the performance options issued have vested or expired prior to the fi nancial year ended 30 June 2013.

Voluntary Options

Voluntary  options  were  fi rst  granted  during  the  2012  fi nancial  year  when  314,578  options  were  issued  at  $1.32  each  and  expire  on
30 September 2015 (the consideration was set at a 25% discount to the fair value of the options on grant date) up to an investment limit of $50,000 
per executive. The maximum discount to any one executive is therefore, limited to $16,666.

The entitlement to exercise the voluntary options is not contingent upon continued employment with the Company nor are there performance 
hurdles. However, if the executive leaves employment before 31 August 2014, the executive will forfeit 25% of their entitlement for $1 (the amount 
forfeited being equal to the 25% discount to the fair market value that applied to the acquisition price of the option at the date of the conditional 
offer and acceptance). The vesting date of these options is upon adoption of the Company’s FY 2014 Annual Report. No performance hurdles are 
attached to these options as the executive has paid $50,000 for the purchase of these options (representing 75% of the fair value of the options on 
grant date).

29  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to reporting date, the Federal Government announced proposed legislative changes to the treatment of fringe benefi ts tax (FBT) on 
motor vehicles. The proposed changes is expected to lead to an unknown and unquantifi able decrease in demand for novated leases and an adverse 
impact to the company’s business overall. The proposed changes require the passing of legislation to become effective and if enacted will have 
a material adverse impact on the future earnings of the Company. The Company is working through various scenarios, including the potential 
structural changes to internal departments should the proposed legislation changes be enacted as law. 

Due to the uncertainty in relation to the treatment of FBT on novated leasing, a fi nal dividend has not been declared in respect of the fi nancial year 
ended 30 June 2013. 

The Company completed a fi nancing arrangement for new borrowing facilities of GBP15 million subsequent to reporting date. The facilities will be 
used to fund business expansion in the UK.

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT
AS AT 30 JUNE 2013

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and 
disclosures  in  the  financial  report.  The  procedures  selected  depend  on  the  auditor’s 
judgement,  including  the  assessment  of  the  risks  of  material  misstatement  of  the  financial 
report, whether due to fraud or error.  

In  making  those  risk  assessments,  the  auditor  considers  internal  control  relevant  to  the 
Company’s  preparation  of  the  financial  report  that  gives  a  true  and  fair  view  in  order  to 
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose 
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit 
also 
includes  evaluating  the  appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the 
reasonableness  of  accounting  estimates  made  by  the  Directors,  as  well  as  evaluating  the 
overall presentation of the financial report. 

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

Independence 
In  conducting  our  audit,  we  have  complied  with  the  independence  requirements  of  the 
Corporations Act 2001.   

Auditor’s opinion 
In our opinion: 

a

the  financial  report  of  McMillan  Shakespeare  Limited  is  in  accordance  with  the 
Corporations Act 2001, including: 

i

ii

giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  company’s  and  the  consolidated  entity’s 
financial position as at 30 June 2013 and of its performance for the year ended 
on that date; and 

complying  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  the  Corporations 
Regulations 2001; and 

b

the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as 
disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.  

Report on the remuneration report  
We have audited the remuneration report included in pages 6 to 12 of the Directors’ report 
for  the  year  ended  30  June  2013.  The  Directors  of  the  Company  are  responsible  for  the 
preparation and presentation of the remuneration report in accordance with section 300A of 
the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the remuneration 
report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
