Chair and Chief Executive Officer’s  
Joint Report

The McMillan Shakespeare (MMS) Group delivered strong  
financial performance in FY22 with normalised1 underlying net 
profit after tax (UNPATA) of $83.8 million, up 16.5%. A fully-franked 
dividend of 108 cents per share was delivered for the year and  
an up to 10% off-market share buy-back announced.

Dear Shareholders, 

On behalf of the McMillan Shakespeare (MMS) Board of 
Directors, Management Team and Staff, we are pleased  
to present the 2022 MMS Annual Report.  

For Financial Year 2022 (FY22) MMS delivered a strong 
operating performance underpinned by our ongoing  
customer focus, new business wins and further simplification 
of the business portfolio, whilst also focusing on initiatives  
to enhance returns for shareholders. This result was  
achieved amid an operating environment impacted by the 
ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and global motor vehicle  
supply constraints.  

During the period the Group reviewed and subsequently 
adopted a refreshed Purpose, Vision and Values Statement 
to better reflect where we are today as an Organisation and 
what we aspire to moving forward. After consultation with our 
internal and external stakeholders, it was established that  
our core purpose is to ‘Make a Difference to People’s Lives.’  
Our purpose will help to further reinforce and enhance our 
culture which has been pivotal in delivering outcomes for our 
customers, our people and shareholders.

1  Normalised refers to adjustments made for the negative earnings transitional period  
for the implementation of the funding warehouse, OnBoard Finance (“Warehouse”).   
It normalises for the Warehouse’s in year operating and establishment expenses and 
for an adjustment for commissions that would have otherwise been received in period 
had the sales been financed via a principal and agency funder rather than through 
the Warehouse. Normalised financials are stated for FY22 and FY21 (for comparative 
purposes) and are currently expected to be stated up to and including FY25. For FY21 
normalisations only include an adjustment to remove the impact of JobKeeper. 

 
 
 
 
 
Financial Performance Growth    

Strategic Focus  

Group NPAT for FY22 was $70.3m which represented 
growth of 15.2% on FY21.  While Group normalised UNPATA 
of $83.8m represented growth of 16.5% and normalised 
revenue of $594.3 million increased by 9.2%. Normalised 
return on Capital Employed (ROCE) improved to 38.6%, up 
from 30.5% and normalised earnings per share increased by 
16.5% to 108.3 cents. We note that given the introduction of 
our funding warehouse OnBoard Finance during FY22 and its 
impact upon UNPATA, the Group’s financials will be presented 
on a normalised UNPATA basis during this Warehouse 
transition period which is currently expected to be stated  
up to and including FY25.  

In Group Remuneration Services (GRS), total normalised 
revenue for FY22 for the segment grew by 2.0% on the 
previous period to $206.6m whilst normalised UNPATA  
was down 2.1% to $48.4m.  

The business achieved growth of 13,500 salary packages 
over the year, and off the back of strong customer demand, 
novated lease orders were up 3.0% on the previous period. 
However, ongoing vehicle supply constraints resulted in  
lower sales, with customer orders being carried over into  
FY23 rising by 90% year on year to $26.0m, causing 
downward pressure on segment profit given that the cost of 
these sales were largely incurred in the FY22 period.   

Our newest segment, Plan and Support Services (PSS) 
achieved normalised UNPATA growth in FY22 of 21.4%  
to $6.6m. This performance was underpinned by organic  
growth in new customer acquisitions which exceeded  
market growth and the acquisition of Plan Tracker which  
was completed during FY22.  

Asset Management Services (AMS) performed strongly across 
all three businesses (Australia and New Zealand (ANZ), the 
United Kingdom (UK) and Aggregation) with normalised 
UNPATA up 63.4% to $30.2m, with the result being 
underpinned by the ongoing strength of used cars prices 
generating a significant increase in remarketing profits. 

Through FY22 our strategic focus centered on continuing 
to improve and investing in our digital offering and data 
analytics to enhance the customer experience and for future 
productivity benefits. We also took action to simplify our 
portfolio of businesses.      

Digital Focus  

We continued to invest in our digital offering during the 
period. Through this ongoing investment we aim to provide 
a more personalised and connected customer platform that 
enhances our product offering and customer experience, 
while generating longer-term productivity improvements.  

A range of initiatives helped us towards this goal across FY22, 
including a new digital identity platform leading to improved 
access to self-service applications and improved functionality 
and security, including a ‘live-chat’ platform which enables our 
customers to communicate with us anytime and anywhere.  

Portfolio Simplification 

During the period we actively pursued a process to simplify 
the Group and its activities to better focus the organisation 
and its capital on our core capabilities, products and markets. 
This activity resulted in the divestment of the CLM Fleet 
Management and Davantage Warranty businesses during the 
period. We will continue this process with the exploration of 
exit options for our entire UK operations in FY23.  

Furthermore, we implemented a new segment structure for  
the Group during the period. These new segments better 
reflect the Group’s capabilities, products and markets in  
which they operate. Our new segments are Group 
Remuneration Services, Plan and Support Services and  
Asset Management Services. 

Capital Management

In FY22 we made considerable progress on our capital 
management strategy with the launch of our warehouse 
funding initiative, OnBoard Finance, the further restructure 
of our UK businesses and the continued run down of the 
existing UK on-balance sheet lease portfolio, which reduced 
by 55% during this period to $23.3m.   

Our capital allocation strategy aims to prioritise surplus cash 
flow to - invest in the business for sustainable growth, fund 
strategic acquisitions, deleverage where required, return to 
shareholders primarily as fully-franked dividends and then 
where surplus capital remains to consider share repurchases.  

In relation to the Group’s payment of dividends, MMS’s 
commitment is to return between 70% to 100% of UNPATA 
to shareholders via dividends. The payout ratio will depend 
on the ongoing investment and cash flow required in the 
business amongst other factors. During the implementation  
of the Warehouse period (currently expected to be stated 
up to and including FY25) the UNPATA used for the dividend 
policy will exclude the impact of the warehouse facility and  
to be referred to as “Normalised UNPATA”.

Chair and Chief Executive Officer’s  
Joint Report

A fully-franked dividend of 108 cents per share was delivered 
for the year inclusive of the final dividend of 74 cents per 
share payable on 10 November 2022. This represents 100% 
of Normalised UNPATA.  

On 29 August 2022 MMS announced that it intends to 
undertake an off-market buy-back of up to 10% of our  
shares as part of the ongoing capital management strategy  
as outlined above, with a view to enhancing shareholder 
returns. Subject to final Australian Taxation Office 
confirmation, the buy-back consideration is expected to  
be a $0.99 capital component, with the remainder via 
dividend, franked to the maximum extent allowable.  

The buy-back is aimed at achieving a balance between 
returning capital to shareholders, while retaining flexibility  
to invest capital for growth and maintaining a strong  
balance sheet.

The Regulatory Environment

We continue to operate in a dynamic regulatory environment 
and are committed to monitoring and responding accordingly. 
From 5 October 2021, a Deferred Sales Model (DSM) was 
introduced across Add-on Insurance and Warranty Products 
within our GRS business as mandated by the Commonwealth 
Government.  

Our preparatory work enabled an effective response and 
implementation of the DSM. Following the outcome of the 
2022 Federal election, we continue to maintain an active and 
ongoing dialogue with relevant policymakers and regulators 
alike, both directly and in conjunction with key industry 
advocacy bodies. 

In July 2022 the Federal Government introduced legislation  
to exempt non-luxury zero and low emissions vehicles from 
FBT.  As Australia’s largest novated lease provider, together 
with our asset management business, MMS is well positioned 
to assist our customers to utilise this proposed legislation in 
their transition to electric vehicles. 

Our Commitment to Sustainability, 
Environment and Accessibility 

During FY22 we made further progress on the implementation 
of the Group’s Sustainability Strategy. Established in 
FY21, this strategy sets out how we will respond to key 
environmental, social and governance risks and opportunities 
for the Group and create positive environmental and social 
outcomes for our stakeholders.  

There were several highlights across this period that are 
particularly noteworthy.  

We transitioned all our Australian controllable sites to 100% 
renewable energy, which helped us offset over a quarter of 
the Group’s total electricity use during the period. We also 
continued to support our customers to reduce their carbon 
footprint through promoting and enabling their transition to 
Electric Vehicles (EV’s). 

We launched our Accessibility Inclusion Plan (AIP) that 
formalised our long term commitment to improving 
accessibility and inclusion for people living with disability. 

We also launched our Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) 
to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, both 
within our business and in the broader community.

Board and Management

This year saw the retirement of long-time Chief Executive 
Officer and Managing Director, Mike Salisbury. On behalf of 
the Board, we thank Mike for his commitment to the Group 
and his instrumental role in helping to evolve the business into 
its current form. Mike was pivotal in embedding our values-
based culture, increasing the engagement of our people and 
investing in improvements to the customer experience. We 
wish Mike all the best for his retirement from Executive life.   

We also welcomed new CEO, Rob De Luca, who brings  
over 20 years’ experience in the banking, financial services, 
wealth management and disability sectors. Rob’s expertise 
and proven track record in navigating businesses through 
periods of change, delivering strategic growth and utilising 
innovation to improve customer engagement were key drivers 
of the Board’s decision and we are excited by our new 
leadership chapter.  

On the 31st August 2022, Non-Executive Director and 
previous Chair, Tim Poole’s term will conclude as previously 
announced.  Tim’s longstanding commitment and contribution 
to the Group have been exemplary and we thank him and 
wish him the best for the future. Your Board continues to 
undertake a diligent Board renewal and succession  
planning process.

Our Vision, Purpose  
and Values

MMS’ vision, our values and our purpose 
guide the Group’s activities, in both a 
business sense and in our commitment  
to our communities and stakeholders,  
providing a framework to guide us in  
our day-to-day actions and long-term 
decision making.

Our Purpose

Making a difference in people’s lives.

Improving the quality of our customers’ lives is a core 
element of what we do. But making a difference in 
people’s lives is not just about our actions, it is about 
the care and consideration that goes into them. It is 
about small, everyday habits that inform and nurture our 
character, culminating in success for our stakeholders.

Our Vision

To be the trusted partner, supporting customers’  
financial wellbeing and lifestyle goals.

As a partner to our customers, we help them navigate 
often complex and unfamiliar products and services. 
We earn our customers’ trust through the integrity and 
honesty of our service. Enhancing our customers financial 
wellbeing and supporting them to achieve their lifestyle 
goals lie at the heart of what we do.

Our Values

Better together means put people first, and work  
together, to pursue better.

We strive to create tangible benefits for our customers, 
people and broader stakeholders. We aim to harness 
the collective efforts of our people and in doing so create 
better, superior outcomes. These values underpin what 
we do and help us to achieve our purpose.     

Strategic Focus and Outlook

It is expected that many of the market conditions experienced 
this year will flow into FY23 such as the COVID-19 pandemic 
and global motor vehicle supply constraints.  An environment 
of labour market constraints, rising inflation and interest rates 
will also present both challenges and opportunities.

GRS will benefit from continued elevated new and used car 
prices on novated lease yields. While demand remains high, 
a lack of available new car stock has meant that expenses 
have been incurred to originate orders that were not able 
to be fulfilled in FY22 resulting in a significant volume of 
customer orders carried over into future periods where the 
revenue is expected to recognised. We will also be on-
boarding recent customer wins and invest in enhancing the 
customer experience through digital and data analytics for 
future productivity benefits. Through the establishment of the 
Warehouse we will continue to ramp up to 20% of novated 
volume which is expected to have an ~($11m) UNPATA 
impact in FY23.

AMS will continue to focus on customer needs, including 
working with clients on reducing their carbon footprint as they 
plan transitioning their fleets to EVs, benefit from ongoing 
elevated used vehicles prices. MMS will explore exit options 
for the UK business. 

PSS growth will continue as the NDIS expands towards an 
expected 859,000 participants by 2030. Our focus is to fully 
integrate the Plan Tracker business and develop a scalable 
platform to grow the business whilst actively pursuing further 
acquisition opportunities.   

Our balance sheet remains in a position to support organic 
customer growth, diversification of our funding sources 
through the Warehouse and exploring opportunities for 
acquisitions.

We would like to thank our people for their dedication to 
supporting our customers through the challenges of the year. 
We also thank our clients, customers and shareholders for 
their support. We look forward to keeping you updated on  
our progress of our strategy execution into FY23 and beyond.

Review of operations – Group 

Segment Review

The MMS Group delivered a strong financial performance  
in FY22 and delivered on several strategic priorities amidst  
a complex operating environment including continued global 
motor vehicle supply constraints. 

Key achievements and initiatives during FY22 included 
driving organic growth in salary packaging customers and 
novated lease orders, the ongoing enhancement of our digital 
channels, the acquisition of Plan Tracker, diversifying our 
funding sources through the establishment of our funding 
warehouse, Onboard Finance (Warehouse), and expanding 
and executing on our sustainability strategy.  

Group Financial Performance Summary 

–  Statutory Net Profit After Tax (NPAT) $70.3 million  

up 15.2% on FY21

–  Normalised revenue of $594.3 million, up 9.2%

–  Normalised earnings before interest, tax, depreciation  
and amortisation (EBITDA) of $132.7 million, up 7.1%

–  Normalised UNPATA of $83.8, up 16.5%

–  Normalised Return on Equity of 29.4% 

–  Normalised Return on Capital Employed of 38.6%  

which is based on underlying earnings before interest  
and tax (EBIT) as the numerator

–  Final dividend declared of 74 cps

Group Remuneration Services

In GRS, total normalised revenue earned for the period was 
$206.6 million, up 2.0% on FY21, whilst normalised UNPATA 
was $48.4 million, a 2.1% decrease on the previous period.

Salary Packaging and Novated Leasing

The Group experienced growth in our customer base of 
13,500 salary packages across the period which was a 
combination of new business and organic growth. 

In FY22 we were re-appointed as one of two salary packing 
providers on a major existing contract and secured new 
business wins across the government, health, not for profit 
and private sectors. In particular, MMS announced that it is 
to become the sole provider of salary packaging and novated 
leases to the Department of Education and Training (Victoria) 
during the year which is scheduled to commence in FY23.  

Ongoing global motor vehicle supply constraints continued to 
impact our novated lease business, with normalised revenue 
increasing 2.0% on FY21 with MMS novated lease sales 
outperforming the new car sales market.  While demand 
remains high, a lack of available new car stock has meant that 
expenses have been incurred to originate orders that were 
not able to be fulfilled in FY22 resulting in a significant volume 
of customer orders carried over into future periods where 
the revenue is expected to recognised.  The total carry over 
value as at 30 June 2022 was ~$26m. Higher average yields 
resulting from inflated retail pricing in the automotive market 
helped to offset the impact to revenue for FY22.

During the period a principal and agent (P&A) funder to 
MMS sold its motor vehicle dealer finance and novated lease 
funding business and connected with the transaction MMS 
executed new supply and transition agreements.

Onboard Finance – Funding Warehouse

Plan and Support Services

Our newly created Plan and Support Services segment during 
FY22 delivered plan management and support coordination 
customer growth of 64% to 25,876, helping to produce a 
21.4% increase in Segment UNPATA to $6.6m. 

The increase in customers is consistent with our growth 
strategy and has been complemented by the acquisition 
in July 2021 of Plan Tracker.  While growth in the support 
coordination customers contributed to a 20% increase in 
delivered support coordination hours.  

Throughout FY22, we continued our focus on creating an 
engaging customer experience through the development of 
innovative digital technology. The investment made in the 
digital strategy seeks to provide our customers with tools to 
help navigate the NDIS and improve their outcomes. Further 
initiatives were completed this period, including an NDIS 
Budget Calculator, an online tool that allows participants, 
carers and support coordinators to budget more effectively.

Other key digital measures introduced during FY22 include 
the enhancement of our Customer Dashboards to encourage 
greater self-service, the creation of an online Knowledge 
Centre and a new website which provides a more accessible 
user experience. 

During FY22 we established our funding warehouse,  
Onboard Finance, which operates as a funding option 
alongside existing P&A funders. 

Onboard Finance was created to enhance long term 
profitability for MMS and offer a secure, flexible and 
alternative funding source for our novated lease customers. 
By transitioning to more annuity style revenue over the life 
of a lease, Onboard Finance will deliver higher overall value 
from each transaction. Following Australian Securities and 
Investment Commission (ASIC) approval of our credit licence 
in April 2022 and with strong support from funders, the 
business commenced financing novated leases leveraging 
our RemServ and Maxxia brands. Our target is for 20% of 
novated lease funding to be financed via the Warehouse  
and we expect to  ramp up during FY23 to this level.

Digital Strategy

During the period we continued to implement and invest  
in our Digital Strategy. The strategy seeks to invest in 
technology that will enable us to improve efficiency,  
execution and distribution, focusing on building customer  
self serve capability. 

A key focus of our Digital Strategy for FY22 was on building 
our capability to deliver personalised and connected  
customer experiences. 

Initiatives during FY22 included: 

–  expanded roll out of a new Digital Estimate platform to 
85% of clients which also enables Electric Vehicle (EV) 
comparisons; 

– 

– 

launched a new identity management solution enabling 
enhanced security, improved password management  
and streamlined login; and

introduced new Maxxia and RemServ LiveChat  
experience, which improved customer connection and 
operational efficiency through integration with core  
contact centre operating systems.

These initiatives contributed to an average monthly Net 
Promoter Score (NPS) for our GRS segment of 53, above  
the sector benchmark and above pre-pandemic levels.

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Asset Management Services -  
Australia and New Zealand

The AMS ANZ segment achieved UNPATA of $18.0 million, 
an increase of 19.6% on FY21. Through FY22 new business 
volumes continued to be negatively affected by delays in new 
vehicle supply, however an increase in demand for high quality 
used vehicles resulted in higher yields through our wholesale 
and retail remarketing channels. Remarketing profits for the 
year increased by 36% on FY21. 

The contraction of new vehicle supply also contributed to an 
increase in contract extensions, which increased the average 
duration and age of the fleet. This led to a 2.2% increase 
in written down value of assets under management, which 
was $318.0 million as at 30 June 2022. Our two Just Honk 
retail yards in New South Wales and Victoria were strong 
contributors to the segment’s performance, despite being 
closed to the public in early FY22 as a result of pandemic 
restrictions. 

Through FY22 we continued to support our customers as 
they looked to reduce their carbon footprint and increase  
the number of zero emissions vehicles in their fleets, including 
a pilot program that involved Interleasing providing EV’s for 
the organisation to use in its national fleet.

We rebranded Maxxia Fleet New Zealand to Interleasing, 
providing us with a platform to service customers across 
the two countries and the ability to provide the New Zealand 
market with online tools previously only available within 
Australia.

Asset Management Services - UK

AM UK delivered UNPATA of $8.5 million, up from $1.4 million 
in FY21.

The limited supply of new vehicles impacting our ANZ 
business also was experienced in the UK, with demand for 
used vehicles – and in turn elevated used car prices and 
remarketing yields – increasing markedly over the period. 
The strong performance was also driven by the strategic 
restructuring which we undertook last year. 

Off-balance sheet originations increased over the period with 
Net Amount Financed (NAF) of $841 million representing 
an 7.8% increase on FY21 and in part due to the lifting 
of COVID-19 restrictions and the gradual improvement in 
business confidence.

Through FY22 we continued to run down the existing on 
balance sheet lease portfolio, which has reduced by 55% over 
the period to $23.3 million. We will continue to execute on this 
strategy into FY23, with much of the book expected to run off 
during the first half of the year.

We made the decision to divest the CLM fleet management 
business after a strategic review. The business was divested 
on 31 May 2022.  

Aggregation

Aggregation business NAF of $1.168 billion an increase of 
15.9% on FY21. This result occurred against a backdrop 
of challenging market conditions that included increased 
competition and a shift in our business mix away from 
Consumer to Commercial lending.   

State of affairs 

There were no other significant changes in the state of  
affairs of the Company and its controlled entities during the 
financial year ended 30 June 2022 that are not otherwise 
disclosed in this Annual Report.

Outlook and likely developments

Events subsequent to balance date

Other than the matters disclosed at Note 8.9 of the  
Financial Report and below, there were no material events 
subsequent to reporting date.

In August 2022 MMS entered into an agreement to obtain 
new five year debt facilities totaling $60m to support working 
capital requirements.

On 29 August 2022 MMS announced that it intends to 
undertake an off-market buy-back of up to 10% of MMS 
ordinary shares as part of its ongoing capital management 
strategy.

It is expected that many of the market conditions experienced 
this year will flow into FY23 such as the COVID-19 pandemic 
and global motor vehicle supply constraints.  An environment 
of labour market constraints, rising inflation and interest rates 
will also present both challenges and opportunities.

GRS will benefit from continued elevated new and used car 
prices on novated lease yields. While demand remains high, 
a lack of available new car stock has meant that expenses 
have been incurred to originate orders that were not able 
to be fulfilled in FY22 resulting in a significant volume of 
customer orders carried over into future periods where the 
revenue is expected to recognised.  We will also be on-
boarding recent customer wins and invest in enhancing the 
customer experience through digital and data analytics for 
future productivity benefits.  Through the establishment of the 
Warehouse we will continue to ramp up to 20% of novated 
volume which is expected to have an ~($11m) UNPATA 
impact in FY23.

AMS will continue to focus on customer needs, including 
working with clients on reducing their carbon footprint as they 
plan transitioning their fleets to EVs, benefit from ongoing 
elevated used vehicles prices and explore exit options for the 
UK business. 

PSS growth will continue as the NDIS expands towards an 
expected 859,000 participants by 2030. Our focus is to fully 
integrate the Plan Tracker business and develop a scalable 
platform to grow the business whilst actively pursuing further 
acquisition opportunities.   

Our balance sheet remains in a position to support organic 
customer growth, diversification of our funding sources 
through the Warehouse and exploring opportunities for 
acquisitions.

In terms of capital management and improved returns to 
shareholders we will complete the announced up to 10% 
off-market share buyback in 1HFY23 and also apply our new 
dividend policy of a payout ratio of 70%-100% of UNPATA for 
the warehouse transition period.

Remuneration Report (audited)

Letter from the Chair of the People,  
Culture and Remuneration Committee

Dear Shareholders,

FY22 remuneration outcomes

While Group earnings out-performed against PCP, the 
Earnings per Share target for the FY20 and FY21 LTIP grants 
relating to FY22 performance hurdles were not achieved and 
thus did not vest. The Return on Capital Employed target for 
the FY20 and FY21 LTIP grants relating to FY22 performance 
hurdles were achieved and will vest. 

Strategic targets accounted for 35% of FY22 LTIP (FY21 30%) 
with the remaining 65% to continue to represent financial 
targets. 14.0% of the plan has qualified for vesting.  Further 
details are provided in Section 5(b). 

Remuneration framework changes in FY22 and FY23

No changes to the remuneration framework or LTIP were 
implemented in FY22. 

In FY23 we will be introducing a short term incentive  
program (STIP) to align with market practice, incentivise  
high performance that aligns with the Company’s strategy, 
and attract and retain key executive talent. The FY23 
framework will consist of fixed remuneration, STIP and 
LTIP with a weighted scorecard comprising financial, ESG, 
customer and people targets. These changes are further 
detailed in Section 6.

Changes in KMP / MMSG leadership

Mike Salisbury, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, 
retired on 16 May 2022 after nearly eight years in the role.  
Mr Rob De Luca assumed the role of Chief Executive Officer 
and Managing Director on 16 May 2022.

We thank you for your support.

Bruce Akhurst 
Non-Executive Chair of the People,  
Culture and Remuneration Committee

On behalf of the People, Culture and Remuneration 
Committee (PCRC) and Board of McMillan Shakespeare 
Limited (the Company), I am pleased to present the Financial 
Year 2022 (FY22) Remuneration Report (Report).

At MMS, we are committed to achieving long-term, sustainable 
returns for our shareholders by leveraging scale, introducing 
new technology and pursuing value accretive, strategic growth 
opportunities in a rapidly changing landscape. In achieving this 
we operate a Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) which includes 
performance hurdles comprising both financial and strategic 
targets. We did not provide short-term incentives in FY22.

Our people

Our people continued to adapt well to a hybrid working 
rhythm, with the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic 
felt to varying degrees across our office locations as 
lockdowns eased. The health and wellbeing of our people, 
in particular their mental wellbeing, remained an utmost 
priority for the Group, as we focused on equipping both our 
managers and team members with tools, resources and 
support services to help manage their connectedness and 
mental health. We also welcomed the opportunity to connect 
in person at leadership development programs, conferences 
and other important events.   

We were pleased to see that our people remained highly 
engaged with the business with a Sustainable Engagement 
Score of 83% in our 2022 Pulse Survey. We also achieved 
the 30:30:40 gender diversity target for 2022, increasing 
representation of female leaders within our leadership roles. 
The Board has committed to increase its gender diversity 
target to 40:40:20 by 30 June 2030 for Board, Other 
Executives/General Managers and Senior Manager levels. 

Closing the gender pay gap is an important part of our 
commitment to gender equality and creating an equitable 
and diverse workplace. We conduct a detailed annual gender 
pay gap analysis, examining gender pay gaps at the overall 
organisational level, by occupational category, segment and 
at position level where people are performing the same work 
with ten or more incumbents. This dynamic process ensures 
equity and parity in remuneration for skills, experience, merit 
and work performed, and findings are presented to the PCRC 
annually. MMS has introduced a total remuneration pay equity 
target of 95-105% on average for like for like roles. This year’s 
gender pay gap analysis revealed that the pay equity in total 
remuneration between men and women in like for like roles 
was 97.8%.

MMS is committed to creating a workplace that attracts 
and retains a diverse, inclusive, high performing and highly 
engaged workforce.

KMP Remuneration

Fixed pay

Long-term incentive

Fixed pay adjustments are made to reflect general market 
conditions and remuneration offered to comparable roles 
within related industries.

The Company did not pay short-term incentives to its KMP 
in FY22, operating a LTIP based on financial and strategic 
performance hurdles.

Reflecting the link between organisation performance and 
executive reward, the earnings per share performance 
hurdles in respect of the FY20 three year and FY21 two year 
LTIP will not vest. However, the return on capital employed 
performance hurdles will vest in respect of the FY20 three 
year and FY21 two year LTIP.

In relation to the strategic targets in the FY22 LTIP, 14.0%  
of the plan has qualified for vesting.

Non-Executive Director Fees

Non-Executive Director fees were increased during FY22 for the 0.5% increase in the superannuation guarantee contribution.

4.  FY22 Executive Remuneration Framework and Policy – Overview

(a)  FY22 Strategic pillars and design principles 

Our FY22 Executive Remuneration  
Strategy and Policy

Design 
Principles

MMS’ executive remuneration strategy and policies support our 
strategy. Our executive remuneration policy is designed to align 
the interests of executives and shareholders while attracting and 
retaining key executive talent who are critical to the growth and 
success of the Company.

–  Attraction and retention of key talent through fair and  

market competitive fixed remuneration for the role.

–  Aligning reward with the creation of sustainable, long-term 
value for the Company’s shareholders. Our executives do

(c)  FY22 Executive remuneration framework

The below table describes each element of pay within the framework and the strategic link. 

Our Executive Remuneration Framework 

Element

Strategic Link

Fixed remuneration

Fixed remuneration comprises base salary and superannuation 
(and, in some cases, non-cash benefits such as motor vehicle 
lease payments and car parking benefits).

Fixed remuneration of the Executive KMP is set to attract and retain 
the calibre of talent required to drive outcomes for the Company’s 
shareholders and deliver on the Company’s strategy.

The PCRC reviews fixed remuneration annually (or on promotion)  
to ensure fixed remuneration levels remain fair, appropriate and 
market competitive.

Long-term incentive

Incentives are delivered through indeterminate rights in a LTIP,  
with Performance Rights measured over a 3 year period and 
subject to performance measures.

By delivering variable reward wholly as a long-term incentive,  
our framework encourages sustainable decision making and  
a focus on the long-term health of the business (including the 
interests of customers), to drive long term value for shareholders.

Vesting of the LTIP is subject to the achievement of performance 
hurdles to drive a high-performance culture amongst our  
Executive Team.

The ROCE and EPS hurdles are aligned with our strategic pillars  
and our focus on both earnings and capital optimisation.

Non-financial measures align to shorter term business objectives, 
measured through a combination of better capital management, 
increased productivity and growth.

Short-term incentive

MMS did not offer short term incentives in FY22, providing  
fixed remuneration and long-term incentives only.

Each element of remuneration is outlined in more detail below:

Fixed annual remuneration in FY22

Fixed remuneration of the Executive KMP is reviewed by the PCRC annually (or on promotion) to determine whether 
changes are appropriate in order to maintain market competitiveness and attract and retain the talent required to drive 
outcomes for the Company’s shareholders. Fixed remuneration is determined on an individual basis having regard to:

–  The individual’s role, duties and responsibilities and performance levels;

–  General market conditions; and

–  Remuneration offered to comparable roles within related industries.

In considering fixed remuneration changes, the PCRC has regard to external benchmarking and generally positions  
the fixed remuneration at the market median of comparable roles within comparator companies. 

LTIP awarded in FY22

In FY22, the Executive KMP were granted Performance Rights in two parts of 25% and 40% each aggregating to 65.0% 
where each part was measured against financial targets and the remaining 35.0% measured against strategic targets.

Specific details on the Performance Rights granted to Executive KMP during FY22 are provided in section 7(b) of the  
report, and the table below outlines the terms of the grants:

Detailed summary – FY22 LTIP grant 

Element

Description

Opportunity levels  
(% of fixed remuneration)

The opportunity levels offered to the Executive KMP in FY22 were:

−  98% of fixed remuneration for the CEO; and
−  98% of fixed remuneration for the CFO

Allocation methodology

Performance Rights: Rights were allocated on a face value basis in FY22. 

Performance period

Two and three years in respect of meeting financial targets. One year in relation to strategic targets.

The vesting of any LTIP is subject to either the good leaver provisions in the incentive plan or 
continued employment with the Company on the date that the Company’s financial report is  
lodged with the ASX for the year ending 30 June 2024.

Performance hurdles

Subject to the Executive KMP remaining employed for the performance period, vesting  
of the Performance Rights is subject to the achievement of two performance hurdles:

a)  Financial targets

−  The Company’s CAGR in underlying EPS which applies to 40.0% of the Performance  
  Rights; and

−  Absolute average ROCE over the performance period which applies to 25.0%  
  of the Performance Rights.

The following vesting schedules apply to Performance Rights (with vesting on a straight-line  
basis between each level of performance).

Calculation of Underlying EPS (CAGR) shall be based on comparing the underlying EPS results  
in the final year of the performance period to the Underlying EPS results for FY21 as the base  
year (excluding any impairment losses recognised in the base year).

The ROCE performance condition is based on the Company’s average ROCE over the  
performance period. 

b) Strategic objectives

Strategic objectives are set by the Board across key strategic areas in FY22 as follows:

−  Capital management (including implementation of secure and diversified funding sources  
including implementing the warehouse and securing arrangement(s) with other financier(s);

−  Productivity (including delivery of productivity benefits and core business growth through  

sales conversion and effective response to the auto supply dynamic by implementing strategic 
initiatives to improve sales outcomes); and

−  Growth (including outperform market growth in novated through enhanced engagement  
and improved sales execution, outperform market growth in NDIS plan management and  
support services and deliver non-organic extensions in GRS and/or Plan Partners).

Description

Process for assessing 
performance conditions

To determine the full extent to which the performance hurdles are satisfied, the PCRC relies  
on the audited financial results and vesting is determined in accordance with the LTIP Rules.

The PCRC believes this method of assessment provides an appropriate and objective assessment 
of performance. The PCRC considers adjustments for one off material items to ensure metrics are 
correctly adjusted to take into account these changes.

In the event that the Executive KMP takes approved unpaid leave for a period exceeding three  
months during FY22, FY23 or FY24, the vesting criteria outlined above with respect to the 
performance hurdles and the executive’s continued employment will be deemed on a pro-rata 
basis to reflect the period of continuous service during the relevant financial year, unless the  
Board determines otherwise.

Voting and dividend entitlements

No voting rights or dividend entitlements attach to the Performance Rights.

Malus (i.e. forfeiture of awards)

If the Board determines that an act of fraud, defalcation, gross misconduct, or that any other 
circumstance has occurred in relation to the affairs of the Group and the Board determines an 
inappropriate benefit has been obtained by the Participant, the Participant will forfeit any right or 
interest in the Shares, Rights or Options or other entitlements under the Plan.

Treatment upon cessation  
of employment

If the Executive KMP leaves employment with the Company prior to the date specified in the  
Invitation Letter, the Rights will lapse without any payment to the employee (subject to the 
discretion of the Board).

Change of control

On a change of control, the Board has discretion to waive the performance conditions attached  
to the Performance Rights.

Hedging

No Executive KMP can enter a transaction that is designed or intended to hedge the executive’s 
exposure to any unvested option or right. Executive KMPs are required to provide declarations  
to the Board on their compliance with this policy from time to time.

1  UNPATA is calculated as net profit before-tax but before the after-tax impact of acquisition related items and non-business operational items  

(as outlined within Note 2.1 of the Financial Report).

2  Normalised refers to adjustments made for the negative earnings transitional period for the implementation of the funding warehouse, OnBoard Finance 
(“Warehouse”).  It normalises for the Warehouse’s in year operating and establishment expenses and for an adjustment for commissions that would have 
otherwise been received in period had the sales been financed via a principal and agency funder rather than through the Warehouse. Normalised financials  
are stated for FY22 and FY21 (for comparative purposes) and are currently expected to be stated up to and including FY25.  For FY21 normalisations only 
include an adjustment to remove the impact of JobKeeper.

3  Dividend payout ratio is calculated as total dividends declared for the financial year divided by Normalised UNPATA for the financial year and  

issued shares at 30 June 2022. 

4  Underlying earnings per share is based on UNPATA.

5  Return on capital employed (ROCE) is adjusted to reflect twelve months’ trading for acquisitions made in the financial year based on underlying  

earnings before interest and tax (EBIT). Underlying EBIT is before the pre-tax impact of acquisition related and non-business operational items  
(as outlined within Note 2.1 of the Financial Report). Capital employed (excluding lease liabilities) used in the calculations includes the add back of  
impairment of acquired intangible asset charges incurred in the respective financial period..

6.  FY23 Executive Remuneration Framework changes

The PCRC and Board of the Company are committed to ensuring our executive remuneration framework remains  
fit-for-purpose going forward. A review of the remuneration framework has been completed and a decision made to 
introduce a short term incentive program (STIP). The FY23 remuneration structure is summarised as follows: 

–  Fixed annual remuneration (base salary plus super plus allowances) 

–  A STIP will be part delivered in cash following a one year performance period and part delivered in rights  
following a one year service based deferral. An annual scorecard will apply an appropriate mix of financial  
and non financial metrics.

–  LTIP will be an annual grant of performance rights with a single three year performance window set at the  
  beginning of year one and measured at the end of year three.

1  Other benefits reflect motor vehicle packaging payments, travel benefits, housing allowance and car parking benefits.

2  The equity value comprises the value of Performance Rights issued. No shares were issued to any Non-Executive Director (and no Performance Rights  
were granted to any Non-Executive Director) during the financial years ended 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2022. The value of Performance Rights issued  
to Executive KMP (as disclosed above) are the assessed fair values at the date that the Performance Rights 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 pricing model that takes into 
account the exercise price, the expected term of the option or right, 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 or right.

3  The expense in FY22 comprises the fair value expense of Performance Rights granted in FY20, FY21 and FY22 based on the number of Rights estimated to  
vest based on the Company’s performance against the EPS and ROCE performance targets (subject to continuing employment) with vesting periods in FY22, 
FY23 and FY24.

4  Mr R. Salisbury retired on 16 May 2022 and Mr R. De Luca commenced on 16 May 2022. Mr M. Salisbury was paid out Annual Leave and Long Service  

Leave entitlements on 16 May 2022.

5  Value of remuneration received comprises salary, benefits and superannuation salary packaged, annual and long service leave used and bonuses paid in  

the year (excludes the value of Rights).

9.  Non-Executive Director Remuneration

(a)  Remuneration policy and arrangements

The Board sets the fees for the Chair and the other Non-Executive Directors. The Board’s policy is to remunerate  
the Chair and Non-Executive Directors:

−  at market competitive rates, having regard to the fees paid for comparable companies, the need to attract  
  Directors of the requisite calibre and expertise and their workloads (taking into account the size and complexity  
  of the Company’s operations and their responsibility for the stewardship of the Company); and

−  in a matter which preserves and safeguards their independence. Neither the Chair nor the other Non-Executive  
  Directors are entitled to any performance-related pay. The primary focus of the Board is on the long-term strategic  
  direction of the Company.

The Non-Executive Directors are remunerated for their services from the maximum annual aggregate amount  
approved by the shareholders of the Company on 22 November 2021 (currently $1,200,000 per annum).

(b)  Fees and other benefits

The table below sets out the annual fees payable (inclusive of superannuation) to the directors of MMS.  
The fee schedule has been determined having regard to fees paid to comparable roles within MMS’ peers.

Fees are inclusive of superannuation, contributions required under legislation are made by the Company on behalf of  
Non-Executive Directors. There is no scheme for the payment of retirement benefits or termination payments (other  
than payments relating to accrued superannuation entitlements).

No Director during FY22, became entitled to receive any benefit (other than a benefit included in the aggregate amount of 
remuneration received or due and receivable by the Directors shown in the Remuneration Report or the fixed 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 financial interest or a firm 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 indemnifies the Directors and officers of the Company and its wholly-owned 
subsidiaries to the 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 (Deed) with each Director and each Company 
Secretary which protects individuals acting as officeholders during their term of office and after their resignation. Under the 
Deed, the Company also indemnifies each officeholder to the full extent permitted by law. 

The Company has a Directors & Officers Liability Insurance policy in place for all current and former officers of the Company 
and its controlled entities. The policy affords cover for loss in respect of liabilities incurred by Directors and officers where the 
Company is unable to indemnify them and covers the Company for indemnities provided to its Directors and officers. This does 
not include liabilities that arise from conduct involving dishonesty. The Directors have not included the details of the premium 
paid with respect to this policy as this information is confidential under the terms of the policy.

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 FY22, are disclosed in Note 8.6 to the Financial Statements.

The ARCC has reviewed the services other than the statutory audit provided by Grant Thornton Audit Pty Ltd during the  
financial year ended 30 June 2022. The other services related to non-statutory audit services and other assurance services 
which are 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 satisfied 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 practices

Our full corporate governance statement is available on our website at www.mmsg.com.au/overview/#governance

Auditor’s independence declaration

A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration, as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth),  
is set out on page 103 of this Annual Report.

Directors’ declaration

The Directors have received and considered written representations from the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial 
Officer in accordance with the ASX Principles. The written representations confirmed that:

–  the financial reports are complete and present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the financial 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 efficiently and effectively  
in all material respects.

Signed in accordance with a resolution of the Directors.

1  Introduction to the Report

The financial report of McMillan Shakespeare Limited (Company  
or parent entity) in respect of the Company and the entities it 
controlled at the reporting date or during the year ended 30 June 
2022 (Group or Consolidated Group) was authorised in accordance 
with a resolution of the Directors on 16 September 2022.

Reporting entity
The Company is a for-profit company limited by shares which is 
incorporated and domiciled in Australia and listed on the Australian 
Securities Exchange (ASX).

Basis of preparation and accounting policies
The financial report and notes is a general purpose financial 
report which has been prepared in accordance with the Australian 
Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian 
Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations 
Act 2001 (Cth). The financial report also complies with the 
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued  
by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have 
been prepared on an accrual and historical cost basis except for 
certain financial instruments measured at fair value as explained 
in the notes to the financial statements (the Notes).

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of 
the previous financial year unless stated otherwise. The financial 
report presents reclassified comparative information where 
required for consistency with current year’s presentation.

Key judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements requires judgement 
and the use of estimates and assumptions in applying the Group’s 
accounting policies, which affects amounts reported for assets, 
liabilities, income and expenses.

Judgements, estimates and assumptions are continuously 
evaluated and are based on:

>  historical experience
>  current market conditions
>  reasonable expectations of future events

Actual results may differ and uncertainty about these judgements, 
estimates and assumptions could result in a material adjustment 
to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities in future periods. 
Significant judgement was required to derive reasonable estimates 
of the significant uncertainties including COVID-19 on future 
business plans, operating capability and cash flow projections.

The key areas involving judgement or significant estimates and 
assumptions are set out below:

Note

Item

3.1

Intangible assets

Judgements, Estimates 
and Assumptions

Assessment of 
recoverable amount

3.4

Assets under  
operating lease

4.3(b)

Trade and other 
receivables and finance 
lease receivables

Lease assets  
residual value

Impairment of  
financial assets

Detailed information about each of these judgements,  
estimates and assumptions are included in the Notes together  
with information about the basis of calculation for each affected 
line item in the financial statements.

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Notes to the Financial StatementsFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022The Notes
The Notes include information which is required to understand the 
financial statements and is material and relevant to the operations, 
financial performance and position of the Group. Information is 
considered material and relevant where:

>  the amount in question is significant because of its  

size or nature;

>  it is important for understanding the results of the Group; or
>  it helps explain the impact of significant changes in the  
  Group’s business.
The Notes are organised into the following sections:

2.  Performance:

information on the performance of the Group, including segment 
results, earnings per share (EPS) and income tax.

3   Assets and Liabilities: 

details the assets used in the Group’s operations and the liabilities 
incurred as a result.

4  Capital Management:

information relating to the Group’s capital structure and financing 
as well as the Group’s exposure to various financial risks.

5  Employee Remuneration and Benefits: 

information relating to remuneration and benefits provided to 
employees and key management personnel.

6  Group Structure: 

information relating to subsidiaries and other material investments 
of the Group.

7  Unrecognised Items: 

information about items that are not recognised in the financial 
statements but could potentially have a significant impact on the 
Group’s financial performance or position in the future.

8  Other Disclosures: 

other disclosures required by Australian Accounting Standards that 
are considered relevant to understanding the Group’s financial 
performance or position.

Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date the Group gains 
control until the date on which control ceases. Control is achieved 
when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns 
from its involvement in the entity and has the ability to affect those 
returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. The 
Group’s share of results of its equity accounted investments is 
included in the consolidated financial statements from the date 
that significant influence or joint control commences until the date 
that significant influence or joint control ceases. The Group’s share 
of all intercompany balances, transactions and unrealised profits 
are eliminated.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the  
same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent 
accounting policies.

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

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 the profit or loss. 

Non-monetary items are not retranslated at reporting date and are 
measured at historical cost (being the exchange rates at the dates 
of the initial transaction), except for non-monetary items measured 
at fair value which are translated using the exchange rates at the 
date when fair value was determined.

Group companies
On consolidation of the financial results and affairs of foreign 
operations, assets and liabilities are translated to the presentation 
currency at prevailing exchange rates at reporting date and 
income and expenses for the year at average exchange rates. The 
resulting exchange differences on consolidation are recognised in 
other comprehensive income (OCI) and accumulated in equity. On 
disposal of a foreign operation, the component of OCI relating to 
that particular foreign operation is recognised in profit or loss.

Accounting policies
Accounting policies that summarise the classification, recognition 
and measurement basis of financial statement line items and that 
are relevant to the understanding of the consolidated financial 
statements are provided throughout the notes.

Current versus non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the Statements of Financial 
Position based on current / non-current classification. 

An asset is current when it is:

>  expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in 

the Group’s normal operating cycle;
>  held primarily for the purpose of trading;
>  expected to be realised within twelve months after reporting 

date; or

>  cash or a cash equivalent unless restricted from being 
exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve 
months after reporting date.

The Group classifies all other assets as non-current.

A liability is current when:

>  it is expected to be settled in the Group’s normal  

operating cycle;

>  it is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
>  it is due to be settled within twelve months after  

reporting date; or

>  there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the 
liability for at least twelve months after reporting date.

The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Rounding of amounts
The amounts contained in the financial report have been  
rounded to the nearest thousand dollars (unless specifically stated 
to be otherwise) under the option available to the Company under 
ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) 
Instrument 2016/191.

2.1  SEGMENT REPORTING

Description of segments
During the period the Group changed the structure of its internal organisation and reporting lines in a manner that caused the composition  
of the reportable segments to change. This was based on internal reports reviewed and used by the Group’s Chief Operating Decision Maker 
(the CEO) to determine business performance and resource allocation. Operating segments have been identified after considering the nature  
of the products and services, type of customer and distribution methods.

The corresponding comparative period has been restated to reflect the change in reportable segments.

Reportable Segment

Services provided

Group Remuneration Services (GRS)

Administrative services in respect of salary packaging and facilitates motor vehicle  
novated leases for customers

Ancillary services associated with motor vehicle novated lease products

Asset Management Services (AMS)

Financing and ancillary management services associated with motor vehicles,  
commercial vehicles and equipment with operations in AU, NZ and the UK

Retail brokerage services, aggregation of finance originations (but not the provision  
of finance) and previously provided extended warranty cover prior to the disposal of the  
RFS Retail business on 30 September 2021 (refer Note 6.1)

Plan and Support Services (PSS)

Plan management and support coordination services to participants in the  
National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)

Underlying net profit after-tax and amortisation (UNPATA), being net profit after-tax but before the after-tax impact of acquisition related  
and non-business operational items (as outlined in the following tables), is the key measure by which management monitors the performance 
of the segments. Segment revenue and expenses are reported as attributable to the shareholders of the Company and excludes outside  
equity interests share.

Normalised UNPATA refers to adjustments made for the negative earnings transitional period for the implementation of the funding warehouse, 
OnBoard Finance (“Warehouse”).  It normalises for the Warehouse’s in year operating and establishment expenses and for an adjustment for 
commissions that would have otherwise been received in period had the sales been financed via a principal and agency funder rather than 
through the Warehouse.  Normalised financials are stated for FY22 and FY21 (for comparative purposes) and are currently expected to be 
stated up to and including FY25.  For FY21 normalisations only include an adjustment to remove the impact of JobKeeper.

1  Unallocated revenue and assets include cash and bank balances of segments other than AMS, maintained as part of the centralised treasury and funding  

function of the Group and interest earned on those balances. 

2  Depreciation and amortisation includes impairment of goodwill and other intangibles of $6.0 million (2021: $13.5 million).

3  Costs incurred in relation to the acquisition and disposal of Group subsidiaries which included the acquisition of Plan Tracker Pty Ltd which completed  
  on 1 July 2021, the disposal of Davantage Group Pty Ltd and Presidian Management Services Pty Ltd (the RFS Retail business) which completed on  
  30 September 2021 and the disposal of CLM UK which completed on 31 May 2022.

4  Impact of IFRIC and IFRS Interpretation Committee agenda decisions adopted during the period (refer Note 3.6 of the financial report).

Segment profit 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 profit does not include corporate costs of the parent entity including Director’s fees and finance 
costs relating to borrowings not specifically sourced for segment operations, costs directly incurred in relation to acquisitions and divestments 
or interest revenue not directly attributable to a segment.

Included in Segment revenue for GRS are revenues of $61,715,952 (2021: $64,200,316) from the Group’s largest contract. This is the  
only customer representing greater than 10% of total segment revenue.

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Notes to the Financial StatementsFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 
Revenue

Description

Remuneration services

Administration fees for the provision of salary packaging and ancillary services including 
novated leasing and finance procurement, motor vehicle administration and other services, but 
not the provision of financing. Fees are recognised at the point in time that the services are 
rendered, net of any rebates payable to the employer organisation. Fee rates are contractually 
agreed with each client employer and the provision of administration services are considered 
to have been satisfied for each period completed.

Interest is received for managing funds held in trust for clients pursuant to the contractual 
agreement and is recognised when received (refer Note 4.1).

Fees derived from the origination of financing and insurance products are recognised at a 
point in time when the customer has executed the lease finance or activated the insurance 
cover and the Group has no outstanding obligations. The Group acts as an agent and does not 
include the premium on policies as revenue. 

Volume based rebates from providers are estimated and recognised based on the period of 
entitlement.

Sale of leased and other assets

The Group assumes control of motor vehicles at the termination of lease contracts and 
disposes of the asset as principal. The net proceeds are recognised when settlement is 
completed and ownership of the motor vehicle passes to the purchaser.

Lease rental services

Brokerage commissions  
and financial services

Rental income received for operating lease assets is recognised on a straight line basis  
over the term of the lease.

Interest from finance leases is recognised over the term of the lease for a constant  
periodic return on the amount invested in the lease asset.

Fees for tyre and maintenance services are recognised to the extent that services are 
completed based on the percentage of costs incurred relative to total expected costs.

Fleet administration fees are recognised in the period that services are provided.

Volume based incentives (VBI) are received based on the volume of financial products 
introduced by the network of dealers and brokers with financiers using contracted rates.  
VBI’s are recognised in the period the financier activates the finance originations net of rebates 
provided to dealers and brokers in the network.

Commission income is received from brokerage services for the procurement of lease finance 
to motor vehicle fleet operators and other customers as agent under a principal and agency 
arrangement (P&A) with financiers. Income is recognised when the financing arrangements 
are funded free from any service deliverables net of estimated clawback of commissions from 
future terminations. Under a P&A arrangement the Group acts as agent for the procurement 
of lease asset financing and does not possess credit risk or carry on risks of ownership of the 
underlying finance or asset with the customer. 

Fees from the sale of wholesale warranty discretionary products are recognised over time 
based on the risk and earning pattern analysis measured using the historical profile of claims 
to estimate probable future performance obligations net of premium clawbacks. Underwriting 
premium revenue is subject to clawback for policy terminations and is estimated based on a 
historical profile of termination rates. 

Plan and support services

Fees for the provision of set up & renewal fees and support coordination services are 
recognised at the point in time of providing the service. Fees for the provision of plan 
management services are recognised over time based on the individual plans.

Group
The subordinated loan loss allowance in 2021 of $3,520,000 related to the net investment in ML in the UK to which the Group had a joint 
venture arrangement prior to obtaining control on 31 December 2020.

Finance lease receivables Expected Credit Loss (ECL) allowance gain of $534,000 is affected largely by the reduction of the carrying value of 
Finance Lease receivables of $28,140,000 from $51,248,000 in 2021. The Group uses the assessment criteria from its credit management 
system and adds forward looking indicators to reflect macro-economic factors to estimate ECL including the downgrade of the credit rating  
of some clients due to their industry COVID-19 risk. 

Parent entity
In FY21 the carrying value of investments in controlled entities were assessed for recoverable value that resulted in an impairment of 
$5,541,000 in 2021 (refer Note 6.2).

In FY21 the Group received the Federal Government economic response subsidy, JobKeeper, for the period from July 2020 to September 
2020. The UK entities received the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, a temporary relief to provide financial support to assist  
in the retention of employees who may otherwise be laid off during the COVID-19 pandemic. The JobKeeper subsidy assisted the Group to 
retain its employees and reduce stand downs. In the UK, the subsidy was a pass through for those employees that were furloughed. 

The subsidies have been accounted for as a reduction to employee benefit expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss.

The tax expense included in the Statements of Profit or Loss consist of current and deferred income tax.

Current income tax is:

Deferred income tax is:

> the expected tax payable on the current period’s taxable income

>  recognised using the liability method

> calculated using tax rates for each jurisdiction 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

> inclusive of any adjustment to income tax payable or recoverable 
    of prior years

>  based on temporary differences between the carrying amounts 
     of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their 
     respective tax bases

>  calculated using the tax rates that are expected to apply when 
     the assets are recovered or liabilities settled, based on those 
     rates which are enacted or substantially enacted

>  not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill

Current and deferred income tax is recognised in the Statements of Profit or Loss. However, when it relates to items charged directly to the 
Statements of Other Comprehensive Income or Statements of Changes in Equity, the tax is recognised in OCI or equity respectively. 

The prima facie tax payable on profit / (loss) before income tax is reconciled to the income tax expense / (benefit) as follows:

The carrying value of DTA’s are reduced to the extent that it is probable future taxable profits will be available to utilise these temporary 
differences. DTA’s and DTL’s are offset only if certain criteria are met with respect to legal enforceability and within the same tax jurisdiction.

DTA’s and DTL’s 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 reversal and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

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.

Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the business 
combination over the Group’s share of the net fair value of 
the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of 
the acquired entity. Goodwill is measured at cost less any 
accumulated impairment losses and is reviewed for impairment 
annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances 
indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. 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 Profit or Loss.

Identifiable intangible assets acquired from  
business combination
Brands, dealer relationships and customer lists and relationships 
acquired in a business combination are recognised at their fair 
value at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, these 
assets are carried at their initial value less any accumulated 
amortisation and accumulated impairment.

Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over 
their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis and assessed 
for impairment annually. Brand names that have indefinite useful 
lives are not amortised but are subject to annual impairment 
assessments. Brands are assessed for impairment as part 
of the relevant CGU. Brand names that have an indefinite life 
are pursuant to the Group’s plan for its continued use into the 
foreseeable future are expected to continue to generate cash flows 
indefinitely. The useful life assessment is reviewed annually.

61

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Notes to the Financial StatementsFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022Capitalised software development costs
Software development costs which are not acquired from a business 
combination are initially measured at cost and subsequently re-
measured at cost less amortisation and impairment.

Costs are capitalised when it is probable that future economic 
benefits will flow to the entity through revenue generation and/
or cost reduction. Costs include external direct costs for services, 
materials and internal labour related costs directly involved in the 
development of the software and are amortised from the date of 
commissioning on a straight line basis over three to five years, 
during which the benefits are expected to be realised. 

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) arrangements are service contracts 
providing the Group with the right to access the cloud provider’s 
application software over the contract period. As such the Group 
does not receive a software intangible asset at the contract 
commencement date. Fees for the use of the application software 
and customisation costs are recognised as an operating expense 
over the contract term if not distinct while other configuration, data 
conversion, testing and training costs are expensed as the service is 
received. Other costs which give rise to a separate intangible asset 
are recognised as capitalised software development costs. 

Contract rights
Contract costs not acquired from a business combination 
are initially measured at cost being the amounts paid plus 
any expenditure directly attributable to the transactions and 
subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and impairment. 
Contracts are amortised over the life of the contract and reviewed 
annually for indicators of impairment.

Impairment test of goodwill
An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss for the amount 
that the asset’s carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount. 
Recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the asset’s 
fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use (VIU). For the purpose 
of assessing fair value, assets are grouped at the lowest levels 
for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are 
largely independent of cash inflows from other assets (cash-
generating units). Where the asset does not generate independent 
cash flows, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the 
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The carrying amount of goodwill is allocated to the Group’s cash-
generating units (CGUs) below based on the organisation and 
management of its businesses.

Key judgement: Assessment of recoverable amount

Recoverable amounts of cash generating units have been determined using the value-in-use methodology. The variables used require 
the use of assumptions that affect earnings projections and the estimation of a discount rate that uses a cost of capital and risk premium 
specific to the cash generating unit amongst other factors. 

Cash projections used in the financial models to assess the recoverable amount of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets required 
significant estimates in uncertain economic and business environments. These are discussed in more detail below.

Key assumptions used for VIU calculations

Cash flow projections
Cash flow projections are based on the financial year 2023 
(FY2023) budgets. Growth assumptions used for subsequent 
years reflect strategic business plans and forecast growth rates. 
Financial projections take into account any risk exposures in 
changes to the trading, market and regulatory environments.

The after-tax discounted cash flow (DCF) models were based on 
after-tax cash flows discounted by an after-tax discount rate.

Cash flows beyond five years are extrapolated using conservative 
growth rates of 2.0% (lower than long term CPI).

GRS CGUs
The Maxxia and RemServ CGUs that form the GRS segment 
operate largely in the same business environment and are exposed 
to similar risks. The equivalent pre-tax discount rate of 17% 
(2021:16%) was applied in the VIU calculation.

Cash flow projections for GRS are substantially higher than the 
carrying value of goodwill and any reasonable changes to the key 
assumptions would not cause an impairment.  A key assumption 
in the GRS segment is that there is no significant change to 
Australian tax legislation that could affect the salary packaging and 
novated lease businesses. 

PSS CGUs
The Plan Tracker business was acquired 1 July 2021 with goodwill 
and other intangibles recognised on acquisition. Goodwill has been 
allocated  to the Plan Tracker CGU given that they will benefit from 
the synergies of the business combination. The equivalent pre-tax 
discount rate of 17% was applied in the VIU calculation.

We have reviewed actual and forecast performance and there are 
no indications of impairment.  The impairment analysis (via DCF) 
has been conducted and no impairment is required. The FY23 draft 
budget is driven by continuing the growth achieved in FY22. The 
Group has considered the impact of changes in key assumptions 
on the impairment testing results and the recoverable amount 
exceeds the carrying amount when testing for any reasonably 
possible changes in key assumptions.

AM CGUs
ASF and CAPEX
The UK consumer new car finance market reported higher new 
business volumes in this market than in 2021.There is continued 
strength in used vehicle values and growth in Anglo Scottish net 
amount financed. Goodwill is considered to be supportable and  
no impairment has been brought to account base do the VIU 
model. The equivalent pre-tax discount rate of 13.5% (2021: 
13.2%) was applied in the VIU calculation. The Group has 
considered the impact of changes in key assumptions on the 
impairment testing results and the recoverable amount exceeds 
the carrying amount when testing for any reasonably possible 
changes in key assumptions.

CLM
On 24 February 2022, the Group announced an $6,028,000 
impairment of CLM goodwill, reducing the carrying value to $nil, 
with no further impairment testing being required. CLM UK was 
disposed on 31 May 2022. 

RFS Aggregation 
During FY22 the RFS Aggregation business experienced an 
increase in the net amount financed of 15.8%. For the impairment 
analysis the volume of finance originations is expected to increase 
and the net yields expected to remain constant. An equivalent  
pre tax discount rate of 17% (2021: 16%) was applied in  
VIU calculation. From sensitivity tests applied, a 0.25% increase  
to the discount rate caused a reduction in carrying value of  
$0.5m and a 5% decrease in gross margin reduced the carrying 
value by $4.2m.

Trade receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business and held with the  
objective of collecting cash flows. They are generally settled within 30 days and the carrying amount includes a loss allowance  
of $978,000 (FY21: $924,000) and specific doubtful debts allowance of $284,000 (2021: $284,000). The carrying amount  
is generally considered to equal their fair value.

Other receivables
Other receivables include transactions accruing and customer related funds that are to be recovered.

None of the other receivables are impaired or past due.

AM finance lease contracts entered into are recognised as finance lease receivables and classified as financial assets measured at  
amortised cost as the contract transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an underlying asset. The net investment  
in the lease equals the net present value of the future minimum lease payments. Finance lease income is recognised as income in the  
period to reflect a constant periodic rate of return.

The fair value of finance lease receivables due within one year are considered to approximate their carrying amount. Fair values were calculated 
based on cash flows discounted using an average of current lending rates appropriate for the geographical markets the leases operate of 4.81% 
(2021: 4.03%). They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair values hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs.

1  Reclassification resulting from the acquisition of Maxxia Ltd (refer Note 6.1) where leases previously recognised as finance leases were reclassified  
  as substantially all the risk and rewards of ownership now remain with the Group.

Assets held under operating leases are for contracts with customers other than finance leases. The 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 depreciated as an expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease based on the cost less residual  
value of the lease.

Assets held under operating lease include an accumulated provision for impairment loss at reporting date of $3,899,000 (2021: $5,071,000).

Provision for residual value
The provision estimates the probable diminution in value of operating lease and rental assets at the end of lease contract dates.  
The estimate is based on the deficit in estimated recoverable value from contracted cash flows.

A residual value provision is also recognised for the estimated loss in recoverable value of lease assets which are transferred to the Group 
at the end of the lease term pursuant to some P&A arrangements with financiers and other residual value guarantees. The asset from the 
financier is acquired at its residual value on termination of the lease which creates an exposure of the carrying value to the expected market 
price for which the potential impact is assessed at reporting and the shortfall provided for.

65

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Key judgement: Lease assets residual value

Operating leases carry an inherent risk for the residual value of the asset. Estimates of significance are used in determining the residual 
values of operating lease and rental assets at the end of the contract date. The assessment includes forecasts of the future value of the 
asset lease portfolio at the time of sale and considers the potential impact of economic and vehicle market conditions and dynamics. 

Under the P&A financing arrangement with external financiers, the Group acquires the lease assets on the termination of the lease contract 
and is thereby exposed to the residual value of the underlying asset. A provision is recognised and this assessment similarly includes an 
assessment of the future value of these P&A funded assets.

If the estimated residual values reduced by 5%, this would result in an increase in the impairment loss provision by $2.2m.

Recognition and measurement of lease assets and liabilities
ROU assets and the lease liability are initially measured on a present value basis. Leases brought to account are for the value of the  
property and exclude non-lease components. 

Lease liabilities include the net present value of fixed rental payments less any lease incentives receivable plus any rental adjustments  
where the extensions available under the lease will probably be exercised. Lease payments are discounted using the Group’s incremental 
borrowing rate.

ROU asset is measured at cost comprising the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct costs and any provision 
for make-good or restoration. ROU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and lease term on a straight line basis.

Short-term leases of less than 12 months and low-value leases are expensed on a straight line basis to the profit or loss.

The principal portion of payments is included in financing activities in the Statements of Cash Flows and the finance charges is included  
in operating activities. 

3.6 

INVENTORIES

Motor vehicles are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Following termination of a 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. AASB 102 Inventories does not define costs necessary to sell 
inventories when determining net realisable value. The IFRS Interpretations Committee agenda decision on Costs necessary to sell Inventories 
(issued June 2021) confirmed that an entity cannot limit the costs it includes to those that are only incremental in determining which of its 
costs are necessary to sell its inventories. The Group reviewed the decision during the half-year ended 31 December 2021 which resulted  
in a $0.3m (pre-tax) increase in the accumulated provision for impairment loss recognised against assets under operating lease. 

3.7  UNEARNED PREMIUM LIABILITY, DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS (DAC) AND  
OUTSTANDING CLAIMS LIABILITY

On 30 September 2021, the Group disposed of its 100% equity interest in its subsidiaries Davantage Group Pty Ltd and Presidian 
Management Services Pty Ltd (refer Note 6.1). Balance sheet amounts related to unearned premium liability, DAC and outstanding  
liability claims were solely related to this business. 

In FY21, the Group assessed the risk attached to unexpired wholesale warranty discretionary products based on the risk and earning  
pattern analysis to ascertain whether the unearned premium liability (contract liability) is sufficient to cover all expected future claims  
against current warranty contracts. Underwriting premium revenue that is not recognised in the period is deferred as an unearned premium 
liability. DAC incurred in deriving warranty income were deferred and recognised as contract assets where they could be reliably measured 
and where it was probable that the associated warranty contract gave rise to warranty revenue in subsequent reporting periods. DAC were 
amortised systematically in accordance with the expected pattern of the incidence risk under the warranty contracts to which they relate.  
A liability for outstanding claims was recognised for claims authorised but unpaid and claims reported which were not authorised for payment 
but were assessed for a probability of payment at reporting date.

Maintenance fees received in advance is income from maintenance service contracts that are unearned based on the historical profile of costs 
incurred to date over the expected total cost. Profit attributed over the life of the contract and losses that are provided in full in the period that 
the loss-making contract is first determined, is adjusted in the amount of revenue recognised.

Rebates and cancellations
Brokerage commissions from the provision of financial services allow that rebates paid to its dealer/broker network and commissions received 
from the origination business may be clawed back by the financial service providers. The potential for rebates and clawback are calculated 
based on the historical profile of rebates and commissions.

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and where it is probable 
that the 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.  

Employee benefits
Employee entitlements to annual and long service leave have been provided for based on amounts expected to be paid when the leave 
entitlements are used. 

Annual leave and long service leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within twelve months have been measured at the present value 
of the estimated future cash outflows. Expected future payments are discounted using interest rates attaching to high quality corporate bonds 
with terms to maturity that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. 

Employee liabilities other than annual leave and long service leave are included in other payables.

This section provides information relating to the Group’s capital structure and its exposure to financial risks, how they affect the Group’s 
financial position and performance, and how the risks are managed.

The Group’s capital management strategy aims to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide 
returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust  
the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. The Group 
monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio and key banking covenants.

The capital structure of the Group is reviewed on an ongoing basis and considers the allocation and type of capital and the associated risks 
and returns.

Cash and cash equivalents
Includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of 
three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash and cash 
equivalents is controlled by the Group and the contractual rights transfer to the Company substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership.

Cash at bank and short term deposits earn interest at floating rates with the floating interest rates for the year for cash at bank at an average 
interest rate of 0.60% (2021: 0.28%). Short-term deposits have an average maturity of 90 days (2021: 90 days) and are highly liquid.

Cash and cash equivalents held in trust and not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position
Pursuant to contractual arrangements with clients, GRS administers cash flows on behalf of clients as part of the remuneration benefits 
administration service. Cash held in trust for clients are therefore not available for use in the Group’s operations. For some clients, cash  
is held in bank accounts specified in their name and other client monies are held in bank accounts specially designated as monies in trust  
for clients. All client monies are segregated from the Group’s own cash and not included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  
At reporting date, the balance of monies held in bank accounts in trust for clients representing all client contributions to operate their  
accounts were as follows:

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.

The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current  
market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments. The fair value of current borrowings approximates the 
carrying amount, as the impact of discounting is not significant.

Other external loans payable relates to the promissory note payable to Davantage Group Pty Ltd as a result of the conversion of the  
amount payable to wholly owned entities of the Group upon disposal of the subsidiary (refer Note 6.1). The loan has been discounted  
to present value based on an average interest rate of 1.86%.

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Notes to the Financial StatementsFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 
 
 
Security and financial covenants
The parent entity guarantees all bank loans of subsidiaries in the Group, totalling $167,601,000 (2021: $167,056,000). 

Fixed and floating charges are provided by the Group in respect to financing facilities provided by its syndicate of financiers.  
The assets identified in Note 3.4 form part of the security.

Loans are also secured by the 
following financial undertakings  
from all entities in the Group:

>  Negative pledge that imposes certain covenants including a restriction to provide  
other security over its assets, cap on its maximum finance debt, acquire assets  
  which are non-core business to the Group, not to dispose of a substantial part  

of its business and reduction of its capital;

>  Maintenance of certain financial thresholds for shareholders’ equity, gearing  

ratio and fleet asset portfolio performance; and

>  Various business parameters of the Interleasing Group and Maxxia Finance Ltd.

The Group operated with significant headroom against all of its borrowing covenants at all times. 

The Groups’ gearing ratio was 17% (2021: 20%) calculated as net debt of $58,052,000 (2021: $67,208,000) divided by total debt  
and equity of $347,183,000 (2021: $336,403,000).  

4.3  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

We proactively manage the risks facing the business, this includes the early identification and assessment of risks, the implementation  
of controls and the active monitoring and reporting of risks. Our approach to risk management, underpinned by the Group’s risk  
management policy and framework, and overseen by the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee, is embedded in our culture and  
reflected in our decision making. 

Senior Executives identify and/or review key risks as part of our normal business activities, and formally at least quarterly. The results  
of these reviews are recorded in the MMS risks register, which is used by the Management Risk and Compliance Committee and key  
risks within the risk register are reported to the Board Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee (ARCC) for monitoring.

Financial risks of the Group are 
monitored by the Board through:

>  ARCC obtains management confirmation of adherence with the Risk Management  
  Policy and Framework;

>  regular reporting of compliance with, and/or breaches of, the Risk Appetite Statement;

>  monthly board meetings which include financial and operational reports from  

senior management;

>  regular reports from the ARCC; and

>  discussions with senior management.

Other monitoring occurs through:

>  dedicated Group Risk Manager responsible for overall monitoring and reporting  

of financial risks;

>  a risk report is presented to the ARCC at least four times per year; and

>  Credit and Interest Committees which oversee Group credit risk, liquidity risk  

and interest rate risk with reporting provided to the Board. 

73

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Notes to the Financial StatementsFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 
 
 
 
 
 
In the normal course of business, the Group is exposed to various risks as set out below:

Risk

Exposure

Response

Liquidity 
risk

Risk that the Group will not 
be able to meet its financial 
obligations as they fall due.

Maintain continuity and flexibility of funding through the use of committed revolving  
bank club facilities based on common terms, asset subordination and surplus cash  
to match asset and liability requirements.

The AM businesses borrowings 
exposes the Group to potential 
mismatches between the 
refinancing of its assets  
and liabilities.

Ensure there is sufficient liquidity through access to committed available funds to  
meet at least twelve months of average net asset funding requirements augmented  
with uncommitted P&A facilities. This level is expected to cover any short-term financial 
market constraint for funds.

The Group monitors daily operating cash flows and forecast cash flows for a twelve month 
period. Significant cash deposits have been maintained which enable the Group to settle 
obligations as they fall due without the need for short term financing facilities. 

Credit risk

Risk of financial loss if a 
customer or counter-party to 
a financial instrument fails to 
meet its contractual obligations. 

Exposure to credit risk is 
through the receivables’ 
balances, customer leasing 
commitments, deposits with 
banks and counterparty risks 
associated with interest and 
currency swaps.

For deposits with banks, only independently rated institutions with upper investment-grade 
ratings are used, in accordance with the Board approved Investment Policy. 

Leasing credit risk is managed pursuant to the Board approved Credit Policy. The policy  
is reviewed annually and prescribes minimum criteria in the credit assessment process  
that includes the credit risk rating of the customer, concentration risk parameters, type  
and intended use of the asset 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. 

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, regions and asset manufacturers. 

Credit risk concentration is spread through exposure to individual customers, industry 
sectors, asset types, asset manufacturers or regions.

Where customers are independently rated, these ratings are taken into account. If there  
is no independent official rating, the credit quality is assessed using the Group’s internal 
risk rating tool, 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 obtained where appropriate, to mitigate the risk of financial loss from defaults. 
Debtor ageing and the provision for impairment is reviewed monthly by the Board. 

Market risk

Interest  
rate risk

Movements in interest 
rates could directly affect 
the margins from existing 
contracts and the pricing 
of new contracts for assets 
leased and income earned 
from surplus cash.

Borrowings issued at variable 
rates expose the Group to 
repricing interest rate risk.

Treasury and pricing 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, are reported monthly to the Board.

The Group has entered into interest rate swaps with counterparties rated as AA- by 
Standard & Poor’s to exchange, at specified periods, the difference between fixed and 
variable rate interest amounts calculated on contracted notional principal amounts.  
Swaps are designated to hedge underlying borrowing obligations and match the  
interest-repricing profile of the lease portfolio in order to preserve the contracted  
net interest margin.

MMS  ANNUAL REPORT 2022Notes to the Financial StatementsFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022Risk

Exposure

Response

Translation related risks from financial and non-financial items of the UK and New Zealand 
entities do not form part of the Group’s risk exposure given these entities are part of longer 
term investments and consequently, their sensitivity to foreign currency movements are  
not measured.

The Group’s transactions are predominantly denominated in Australian dollars which is  
the predominant functional currency and the presentation currency of the Group.

Continuous review of 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 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. 

Foreign 
currency 
risk

Asset risk

Foreign currency risk arises  
from holding financial 
instruments that are 
denominated in a currency  
other than the functional 
currency in which they are 
measured. This includes 
the Group’s inter-company 
receivables and payables  
which do not form part of  
the net investment in the UK  
and New Zealand entities.

Asset risk is mainly from 
the residual value of assets 
under lease and the tyre and 
maintenance 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. The estimate is 
formed at the inception of the 
lease and any subsequent 
impairment, exposes the Group 
to potential loss from resale if 
the market price is lower than 
the value as recognised. 

Risk relating to tyre and 
maintenance services arises 
where the costs to meet 
customer claims over the 
contracted period exceed 
estimates made at inception.

1  AM Revolving facility

2  AM Amortising facility

3  Onboard Warehouse Trust 2021-1 facility

Revolving facilities above have been provided by a financing club of three major Australian banks operating under common terms and 
conditions. Borrowings are denominated in the local currency of the principal geographical markets to remove associated foreign currency 
cash flow exposure.

The borrowing facilities are further augmented by P&A facilities of $194.0million ($90.2 million utilised) and associated residual value facilities 
totalling $123.0 million ($59.7m million utilised). The Group carries a residual value exposure in relation to some P&A facilities that revert the 
lease asset to the Group at the termination of the lease. The residual value was assessed at the lower of book value and estimated disposal 
value resulting in a provision for loss in value of $0.7 million for assets identified to be possibly below book value. 

The Group believes that the balanced arrangement of internal funded fleet assets and the use of P&A facilities improves liquidity,  
provides funding diversification and helps to optimise capital management.

The other facilities are borrowed in local currency as follows:

Operating lease assets represent future lease rentals not yet invoiced which are secured against underlying assets. 

Impairment of trade receivables and finance lease receivables

Key judgement: Impairment of financial assets

Finance lease, trade and other receivables are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period on an expected credit loss (ECL) 
basis. The Group applies the AASB 9 simplified model of recognising lifetime expected credit losses for all receivables as these items do not 
have a significant financing component. In measuring the expected credit losses, the trade receivables and finance lease receivables have 
been grouped based on substantially shared credit risk characteristics. 

ECL for finance lease receivables includes the inherent risk attached to the credit assessment of each customer, estimate of customer 
default risk, environment and inventory risk and other factors affecting recoverability. COVID-19 affected the credit quality of many 
customers at varying levels.

Recoverability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. The expected loss rate for trade receivables is based on the credit  
loss history on sales over the previous 36 months and adjusted for forward looking factors.

Impairment of financial assets is most sensitive to the failure of a significant customer.

Analysis of maturities is provided in Note 4.3(a). 

Borrowings for the AM business of $157,440,000 (2021: $125,668,000) were covered by interest rate swaps at a fixed rate of interest  
of 2.32% (2021: 1.72%). 

Interest rate risk also arises from cash at bank and deposits, which are at floating interest rates.

Sensitivity analysis – floating interest rates:
If the Australian interest rate weakened or strengthened by 25 basis points, being the Group’s view of possible fluctuation, and all other 
variables were held constant, the Group’s post-tax profit for the year would have been $721,000 (2021: $947,000) higher or lower and  
the parent entity $26,000 (2021: $17,000) higher or lower, depending on which way the interest rates moved based on the balances at 
reporting date.

Fair value measurement
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities is estimated for recognition and measurement for disclosure purposes.

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

Level 1

Level 2

Derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

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).

Valuation technique and key input 

Discounted cash flow using estimated future cash flows 
based on forward interest rates (from observable yield curves 
at the end of the reporting period) and contract interest rates, 
discounted to reflect the credit risk of various counterparties.

Except as detailed above and in Note 3.3, the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognised approximate their fair 
values. The fair value of borrowings is not materially different to their carrying amounts since the interest payable is close to market rates.  
The carrying amount of cash, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables are assumed to be the same as their fair values, due  
to their short term nature.

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

Hedge accounting
Where the Group undertakes a hedge transaction it documents at inception of the transaction the type of hedge, the relationship between  
the hedging instruments and hedged items and its risk management objective and strategy. The documentation also demonstrates, both  
at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis that the hedge has been, and is expected to continue to be, highly effective.

The Group uses derivative financial instruments for cash flow hedging purposes and designates them as such.

Cash flow hedge

Derivatives or other financial instruments that hedge the exposure to variability in cash flows  
from external borrowings that are priced using variable interest rates.

Cash flows hedges are used to manage interest rate exposure to interest rate volatility and its impact 
on leasing product margins. This process seeks to have more control in balancing the spread between 
interest rates charged on lease contracts and interest rates and the level of borrowings assumed in  
its financing as required.

Recognition date

Changes in fair value

Inception

Fair value

Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the hedge contracts are taken to other 
comprehensive income (OCI) to the extent of the effective portion of the cash flow hedge and the 
ineffective portion recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss. These gains or losses in OCI are 
accumulated in a component in equity and are re-classified to the Statement of Profit or Loss to match 
the timing and relationship with the amount that the derivative instruments was intended to hedge.

Ordinary shares and premiums received on issue of options are classified as issued capital.

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

Shares purchased by the Company or any entity in the Group are classified as treasury shares and the incremental cost of acquiring those 
shares are deducted from share capital.

Ordinary shares participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the parent entity in proportion to the number of members’ shares 
held. At members’ meetings, each fully paid ordinary share is entitled to one vote when a poll is called, otherwise each shareholder has one 
vote on a show of hands.

Treasury shares
The Group maintains the McMillan Shakespeare Limited Employee Share Plan Trust (EST) to facilitate the distribution of McMillan  
Shakespeare Limited shares under the Group’s Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP). The EST is controlled by McMillan Shakespeare  
Limited and forms part of the Group. 

Treasury shares are shares in McMillan Shakespeare Limited that are held by the EST for the purpose of issuing shares under the  
McMillan Shakespeare Limited LTIP. Treasury shares are deducted from issued shares to show the number of issued shares held by  
external shareholders. 

Options
At 30 June 2022, there were nil (2021: 12,500) unissued ordinary shares for which options were outstanding. In FY21 they were exercisable 
at an average price of $13.45. Details relating to options issued, exercised and lapsed during the year and options outstanding at the end  
of the year is set out in Note 5.1.

5  Employee Remuneration and Benefits

5.1  SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

The Company operates a LTIP for certain executives and employees under the McMillan Shakespeare Limited Employee Share Plan.  
The Company issues Performance Rights annually with a three-year vesting period. The issuance to the previous Managing Director was 
granted on 22 November 2021 following shareholder approval on that day. 

No executive can enter into a transaction that is designed or intended to hedge the exposure. Executives are required to provide  
declarations to the Board on their compliance with this policy regularly.

Voluntary Options 
Voluntary options allow the participant to acquire a fully paid ordinary share in the Company by the payment of the exercise price at the 
exercise date. Entitlement to exercise is not contingent upon continued employment with the Company nor are there performance hurdles. 
Voluntary Options are offered to certain executives for an additional opportunity to invest in the Company, who can acquire for a consideration 
up to a maximum of $20,000. Consideration was set at a 25% discount to the face value of the option at the date of grant. However, if the 
participant leaves employment before vesting date, the participant will forfeit 25% of their entitlement for $1 (the amount forfeited being equal 
to the 25% discount to the face value that applied to the consideration price of the option at the date of the conditional offer and acceptance).

Performance Rights
A Performance Right is an entitlement to acquire a fully paid ordinary share in the Company for Nil consideration at grant for conversion  
to a share, subject to the achievement of performance hurdles and service conditions being satisfied. Performance Rights carry no dividend  
or voting rights.

Performance hurdles and vesting entitlements
Refer page 27 for details of the terms and conditions for Performance Rights issued in the year.

Recognition and measurement
The Performance Options and Rights are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments and recognised at the fair value at  
grant date as an employee benefit expense over the period from issue date to vesting date with a corresponding increase in equity  
(share-based payment reserve). Fair value is determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model and incorporates market conditions and  
does not include any conditions that are not market based. The cumulative expense recognised is adjusted to reflect the Directors’ best 
estimate of the number of rights that will ultimately vest based on the vesting conditions attached to the rights, such as the employees  
having to remain with the Group until vesting date, or such that employees are required to meet financial targets. No expense is recognised  
for rights that do not ultimately vest.

6  Group Structure

6.1  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Business combinations are accounted for on the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Cost is measured as the fair value  
of the assets given, shares issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. Transaction costs, other than those associated 
with the issue of debt or equity instruments that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination, are expensed as incurred. 

Upon the loss of control, the Group de-recognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, non-controlling interests and the other 
components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in the profit or loss.

Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the subsidiaries’ net assets.

Acquisition of Plan Tracker
On 1 July 2021, the Group acquired 100% of the equity instruments of Plan Tracker Pty Ltd (“Plan Tracker”) thereby obtaining control.  
Plan Tracker is a well-established New South Wales (NSW) based national plan management provider with a footprint in NSW, Queensland, 
South Australia and Western Australia.

is provider of financing solutions and associated management services on motor vehicles. Under the contractual agreement, the Group 
together with the joint venture partner jointly controlled the economic activities and key decisions of the JV. The arrangement required 
unanimous consent for key strategic, financial and operating policies that affected the Group’s returns. The Group had an option to  
acquire the residual interest in the joint venture entity from the joint venture partner after five years from acquisition and the joint  
venture partner had an option to sell its interest to the Group during the same period. 

The interest in the JV was equity accounted in the financial statements. The Group’s share of losses exceeds its investment cost in the  
JV and accordingly, the excess is applied to the extent of the loan receivable from the JV that forms part of the net investment until it is 
reduced to zero, and thereafter 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 Group obtained control of the JV on 31 December 2020.

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

8.7  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ADOPTED DURING THE YEAR

The amended accounting standards and interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board during the year that were 
mandatory were adopted except as outlined below. None of these amendments or interpretations adopted materially affected any of the  
amounts recognised or disclosures in the current or prior year. The following IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and IFRS Interpretations 
Committee agenda decisions were not yet adopted during the year.

IFRIC agenda decision on Software-as-a-Service arrangements
The IFRIC has issued two final agenda decisions which impact SaaS arrangements:

>  Customer’s right to receive access to the supplier’s software hosted on the cloud (March 2019) – this decision considers whether  

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

>  Configuration or customisation costs in a cloud computing arrangement (April 2021) – this decision discusses whether configuration  
or customisation expenditure relating to SaaS arrangements can be recognised as an intangible asset and if not, over what time  
period the expenditure is expensed.

The Group reviewed the IFRIC agenda decisions and expensed $0.3m (pre-tax) in the financial year relating to costs incurred to configure  
and customise software under a SaaS contract. Furthermore, $0.8m was reclassified from software development costs to prepayments  
as a result of the agenda decisions.

IFRS Interpretations Committee agenda decision on Costs necessary to sell Inventories (issued June 2021)
AASB 102 Inventories does not define costs necessary to sell inventories when determining net realisable value. The agenda decision  
confirmed that an entity cannot limit the costs it includes to those that are only incremental in determining which of its costs are necessary  
to sell its inventories. 

The Group reviewed the decision which resulted in a $0.3m (pre-tax) increase in the accumulated provision for impairment loss recognised 
against assets under operating lease. 

8.8  ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE

A new accounting standard AASB 17 Insurance Contracts has been issued but not mandatory for adoption in the year ended 30 June 2021.  
This Standard is first applicable to the Group for financial periods beginning 1 July 2023. AASB 17 requires all insurance contracts to be 
accounted for in a consistent manner and requires insurance obligations to be accounted for using current values.

With the Group’s disposal of the Davantage group (refer note 6.1) the Standard will not have a material impact on the transactions and  
balances recognised in the financial statements when it is first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2024. 
There are no other standards or interpretations that are not yet effective that are expected to have a material impact on the Group or Company. 

8.9  EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE REPORTING DATE

Other than the below and the matters disclosed in this report, there were no material events subsequent to the reporting date.

In August 2022 MMS entered into an agreement to obtain new five year debt facilities totalling $60m to support working capital requirements.

On 29 August 2022 MMS announced that it intends to undertake an off-market buy-back of up to 10% of MMS ordinary shares as part of its 
ongoing capital management strategy.

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the Members of McMillan Shakespeare Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion

declaration.  

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

a 

b 

giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2022 and of its performance

Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those

opinion.

Key audit matters  

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

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Impairment of goodwill and intangible asset balance (Note 3.1) 

At 30 June 2022, the Group has $88,425,000 of 
goodwill and $18,441,000 in other intangible assets 
(excluding software development costs) contained 
within separate cash generating units (CGUs). 

During the year the Group recognised an impairment 
against goodwill for the CLM Fleet Management CGU 
of $6,028,000. 

Our procedures included, amongst others 

•  Assessed management’s determination of CGUs 
based on our understanding of how management 
monitors the entity’s operations and makes 
decisions about groups of assets that generate 
independent cash flows; 

Additional goodwill of $7,215,000 and other intangibles 
(before amortisation) of $5,064,000 were recognised 
from the acquisition of the Plan Tracker business on 1 
July 2021.  

•  Evaluated management’s process for the 

preparation and reviewed of the impairment 
assessment VIU models, taking into consideration 
the impacts of sector specific issues; 

AASB 136 Impairment of Assets requires management 
to perform an impairment test on goodwill and other 
indefinite life intangibles at least annually, as well as on 
intangible assets with finite useful lives if indicators of 
impairment are identified. 

We consider this a key audit matter due to the nature 
of the balances and the judgments required in 
preparing the value-in-use (VIU) models and due to the 
judgement in determining CGUs, impairment indicators 
and triggers. This involves consideration of the future 
results of the business, growth and the discount rates 
applied. 

•  Reviewed the impairment assessment VIU models 

for compliance with AASB 136; 

•  Reviewed the completeness and accuracy of the 

underlying data used in the impairment assessment 
VIU models;  

•  Utilised internal valuation specialists to assess the 
appropriateness of the valuation methodology; 

•  Evaluated the mathematical accuracy of the VIU 

model calculations; 

•  Assessed the key growth rate assumptions by 

comparing them to historical results, economic or 
industry forecasts and the discount rate by reference 
to the cost of capital for the relevant components 
and the Group by comparing to historical results, 
and considering the Group’s historical ability to 
forecast accurately; 

•  Performed sensitivity analyses in relation to the cash 

flow projections, discount and growth rate 
assumptions on CGU’s with a higher risk of 
impairment. The impairment analysis considered the 
individual and collective impacts; and 

•  Assessed the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures 

within the financial statements.

AS AT 30 JUNE 2022

Acquisition of Plan Tracker (6.1) 

On 1 July 2021, the Group acquired and consolidated 
100% of Plan Tracker shares. The Group recognised 
$7,215,000 as goodwill relating to the acquisition. 

We consider this a key audit matter due to the complex 
accounting treatment of AASB 3 Business 
Combinations, including the recognition of material 
goodwill, and the purchase price allocation of the 
underlying assets and liabilities of the acquirer. 

Our procedures included, amongst others 

•  Reviewed the purchase agreement; 

•  Assessed the accuracy of the fair value of assets 

and liabilities recorded at acquisition date; 

•  Reviewed management’s independent valuation for 

identifiable intangibles, which included: 

−  Assessed whether the intangibles meet the 
definition of an intangible under AASB 138 
Intangible Assets; 

−  Considered whether management omitted any 

potential intangible assets; 

−  Engaged Grant Thornton valuation specialists to 

review the valuation; and 

−  Reviewed of the proposed useful lives of the 

intangible assets. 

•  Reviewed of the purchase consideration to ensure 
employee payments were correctly allocated under 
AASB 3; and 

•  Reviewed the financial statement disclosures. 

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon 

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included 
in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2022 but does not include the financial report and our 
auditor’s report thereon.  

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

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

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

Responsibilities of the Directors’ for the financial report  

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

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

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report 

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

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and 
Assurance Standards Board website at:  http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1_2020.pdf.This 
description forms part of our auditor’s report.
