Small Amount Credit Contract (“SACC”) loans represent 13.0%  
of total Gross Loans Receivable, compared to 14.5% at the 
end of FY16. We expect to see SACC’s continue to decline  
as a percentage of the overall Gross Loans Receivable. 

Regulations 

Money3 is aware the government has proposed regulatory 
changes for Small Amount Credit Contracts and the 
commissions payable to finance brokers that may influence 
operations. We have considered the relevant regulations 
and reviews and find many have little to impact on the 
operations of Money3. We have, where necessary made 
adjustments to the operations to ensure these changes if 
introduced have immaterial impact to our financial results.

Financial Results

We delivered another strong year of growth, and an 
outstanding financial result. Revenues were up 13.4%  
from $96.7 million to $109.6 million, with all divisions 
contributing to top line growth. Expenses have been 
controlled and sustainable cost savings programs have  
been implemented across the business which have 
contributed to the material Earnings Before Interest, Tax, 
Depreciation and Amortisation (“EBITDA”) improvements. 
This, combined with continued strong growth in secured 
automotive loans delivered an exceptional EBITDA increase 
of 43.4% to $50.6 million, up from $35.3 million, and NPAT 
increased 44.5% to $29.1 million, up from $20.1 million.

Within the Gross Loan Book, secured automotive loans  
have grown 40.9% to $213.9 million and now represent 
78.3% of the total Gross Loans Receivable, compared 
to 76.3% at the end of FY16, larger amount longer term 
unsecured loans represents 11.0% of total Gross Loans 
Receivable, compared to 9.2% at the end of FY16, and

Dividends

The Directors of the company have declared a final  
dividend of 3.15 cents per share fully franked, payable  
on the 27 October 2017 to those shareholders on the 
register at the close of business on the 6 October 2017.  
The final dividend payable of 3.15 cents per share brings  
the full year dividend to 5.65 cents per share, fully franked,  
an increase of 7.6% on the prior year.

Outlook

We will continue to drive further growth in the secured 
automotive loan book with further penetration into broker 
relationships and leveraging repeat customers, whilst 
diligently maintaining cost savings that have been identified 
and implemented across the business. Training, compliance 
and collections activity will continue to be a focus to reinforce 
Money3’s market leading position.

The Directors are pleased to provide FY18 full year guidance 
for NPAT of $29-30 million, resulting from the early adoption 
of new accounting standards AASB 9 and AASB 15. 

Conclusion

On behalf of the Board of Money3, we would like to thank 
our staff and management for their outstanding customer 
service and commitment to our vision. 

Finally, we would like to thank you, our shareholders, for your 
continued support as we execute the company’s growth 
strategy. We are excited by the outlook for the business  
and look forward to continuing to grow shareholder value.

Principal Activities

The principal activities of the Group during the financial year were the provision of financial services specialising in the 
delivery of secured and unsecured personal loans.

There has been no significant change in the principal activities during the financial year.

Results of Operations

Money3 is delighted to announce full year results for the year ended 30 June 2017 and confirms its record Net Profit After Tax 
(“NPAT”) of $29.1 million exceeded its prior profit guidance of $27.5 million.

Money3’s transformational journey from a short term unsecured lender to a scalable diversified financial services company 
focusing on short and medium term loans, both secured and unsecured, has continued throughout the year.

Money3 is now a key provider of vehicle finance to consumers looking to fund the purchase of a preowned car in Australia 
and with the continual growth in the market and Money3’s small relative share it is expected there is still significant growth 
opportunity in this sector along with the provision of larger amount longer term unsecured personal loans.

divisions contributing to top line growth. Strong focus on cost controls drove significant improvements in Earnings Before

Broker Division

The Broker Division of Money3 consists of unsecured and secured asset (mainly automotive) financing between $2,000 
and $35,000 over periods up to 60 months. All financing under the Broker Division is provided under a Medium Amount 
Credit Contract (“MACC”) or an All Other Credit (“AOC”) Contract, in accordance with the National Consumer Credit Protection 
Act 2009.

Money3 has over 150 accredited independent broker relationships across Australia, which provides approximately 75% 
of settled loans, in addition to receiving leads from the Branch Division, Online enquires and repeat customers.

The key financial operating results for the Broker division are outlined in the table below:

The Broker Division continued to deliver sound revenue and EBITDA growth. Revenue for the year increased 21.5% to  
$56.0 million, driven by a 31.5% increase in number of loans written during the year. This growth in loans written provides 
a strong platform for future financial periods underwriting future revenue streams. Gross Loans Receivable has increased  
to $213.9 million, up 40.9% from $151.8 million.

EBITDA increased by 10.2% to $34.7 million, and as a percentage of revenue EBITDA continues to improve, leveraging scale.

Throughout FY17 there was a thorough review of corporate expenditure which saw many corporate overheads moved 
under the Broker division to better align costs with their revenue generation units. This in part explains greater revenue 
growth over EBITDA in FY17.

Branch Division

The Branch Division consists of 53 physical branches located across Australia and provides cash loans to customers ranging 
from $100 to $8,000, mainly on an unsecured basis. Financing under the Branch Division is provided under either a Small 
Amount Credit Contract (“SACC”), Medium Amount Credit Contract (“MACC”) or an All Other Credit (“AOC”) Contract, 
in accordance with the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009.

The key financial operating results for the Branch division are outlined in the table below:

It has been a year of consolidation for the Branch Division. Revenue grew 12.9% to $35.1 million, which is a pleasing result 
in a competitive, mature market.

We are seeing the benefits of consolidation of branches and continued focus on costs reductions, EBITDA materially 
improved by 42.8% on the prior year. The Branch network has continued to work tirelessly to ensure a smooth transition for 
customers and to encourage as many customers as possible to transition to new branch locations and remain a customer 
of Money3. All branches made positive EBITDA contributions in FY17.

The Branch Division continues to diversify its product mix and as at 30 June 2017 the Gross Loans Receivable now comprise 
58.0% of larger amount longer term loans, compared to 53.1% at 30 June 2016.

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017Online Division

Cash Train provides cash loans to customers ranging from $200 to $8,000, mainly on an unsecured basis. Financing under 
the Online Division is provided under either a Small Amount Credit Contract (“SACC”), Medium Amount Credit Contract 
(“MACC”) or an All Other Credit (“AOC”) Contract, in accordance with the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009.

The key financial operating results for the Online division are outlined in the table below:

FY17 saw continued growth in the Online division with the growth driven out of the Cash Train business in Perth, but more 
importantly the focus on cost controls throughout the business saw material EBITDA growth. This included relocation to 
a smaller office during the year. The division delivered revenue growth of 7.8% and EBITDA growth of 58.9% to $5.3 million.

Advertising costs have been the biggest focus on the cost program and the results demonstrate the business has identified 
a number of ways to increase repeat customers, brand loyalty and reduce search costs which flowed directly to the Online 
business EBITDA.

The transition from Cash Train’s legacy loan system to the Money3 lending platform, was completed in the first quarter 
of FY17 and this allows Cash Train to offer a more expansive product offering and for debt servicing to be completed as part 
of the broader Money3 collections process.

Financial Position

In March 2017, Money3 renewed and increased its debts facility to $50 million to accelerate the growth of the secured 
loan book. Cash reserves at 30 June 2017 were $21.1 million, gross debt was $79.5 million, and net debt was $58.4 million, 
compared to 30 June 2016 where cash reserves were $27.1 million, gross debt was $48.6 million and net debt was  
$21.5 million. The business remains conservatively geared and it is expected that future growth of the receivables book  
will come from debt and not equity funding.

Strategic Update

The Broker Division will continue to drive further penetration into broker relationships and leverage greater levels of repeat 
customers to improve EBITDA performance. Diversification of lead source will also continue to be a focus.

The Branch Division has introduced new product offerings to continue to meet customer needs, whilst focussing on cost control. 
Training, compliance and collections activity will be ramped up to further reinforce Money3’s position as a market leader.

The Online Division will introduce new product offerings after transitioning to the new lending platform. Advertising and 
marketing activities are being reinvigorated to encourage repeat customers, brand loyalty and diversification of leads.

Material Risks

Key strategic risks facing the business include the following:

Risk that the business cannot refinance debt facilities when they expire
Money3 to date has been conservatively geared and has been using a mixture of debt and equity to fund growth. In the 
event that debt facilities could not be refinanced, lending could be reduced to allow cash receipts to repay debt facilities, 
a capital raising could be undertaken, or the dividend reduced or eliminated.

Risk that part of the business is subject to an adverse regulatory change or regulatory review
With increased attention from the media, advocate groups and Environmental and Social Governance (ESG) policies, 
all financiers including Money3 are coming under increased scrutiny from the regulators. Money3 has a diversified range 
of product offerings that means that it is not reliant on any one product. Lending practices are continually monitored 
and reviewed, and the business has adopted a Lending Charter that goes beyond existing regulatory requirements.

11

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017Directors’ Report
continued

Risk that there is a downturn in the economy and collections reduce
There is a risk that the economic cycle may result in cash collections slowing and an increase in bad debts. As the business 
is dealing with customers that are credit impaired, the business is adept at helping customers to manage their repayment 
obligations around life’s challenges. Money3 knows that it is important to help customers on their journey to financial and 
social inclusion, and that means being flexible when the customer needs it. Money3’s collection practices are built around 
this premise.

A downturn in the economy could also provide further lending opportunities to Money3 as credit practices of larger 
financial institutions tighten.

Since the end of the financial year the Directors have declared the payment of a final 2017 ordinary dividend of 3.15 cents 
per fully paid share. Based on the current number of shares on issue, the dividend payment is expected to be $4.9 million. 
This dividend will be paid on 27 October 2017 by the Company.

The Board advises that the dividend payout ratio guidance will continue to be 30-50% of underlying NPAT to balance 
shareholder returns in the form of dividends versus capital growth through reinvestment of profit into the loan book.

In the opinion of the Directors, there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group that occurred during

Remuneration Philosophy

The performance of the Company depends upon the quality of its Directors and Executives. To prosper, the Company must 
attract, motivate and retain highly skilled directors and executives.

To that end, the Company embodies the following principles in its remuneration framework:

•	

•	

•	

Provide competitive rewards to attract high calibre executives;

Focus on creating sustained shareholder value;

Significant portion of executive remuneration at risk, dependent upon meeting predetermined performance 
benchmarks; and

•	 Differentiation of individual rewards commensurate with contribution to overall results and according to individual 

accountability, performance and potential.

The Remuneration Committee is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors, 
Managing Director (MD) and the senior management team. The Committee assesses the appropriateness of the nature and 
amount of remuneration of Directors and senior managers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market 
conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high-quality board 
and executive team.

Remuneration Structure

In line with best practice corporate governance, the structure of NED, MD and senior management remuneration is separate 
and distinct.

15

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017Remuneration Report
continued

NED Remuneration

The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain 
Directors of the highest calibre.

The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of NED’s shall be determined from 
time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount determined is then divided between the NED 
as agreed. The current approved aggregate remuneration is $500,000 (2016: $500,000).

Senior Management and MD Remuneration

The Company aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and 
responsibilities so as to:

•	

Reward executives for company and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks;

•	 Align the interests of executives with those of shareholders;

•	

•	

Link reward with the strategic goals and performance of the company; and

Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.

The executive remuneration program is designed to support the Company’s reward philosophies and to underpin the 
Company’s growth strategy. The program comprises the following components:

•	

Fixed remuneration component; and

•	 Variable remuneration component including short term incentive (“STI”) and long term incentive (“LTI”).

Fixed Remuneration

The level of fixed remuneration is set to provide a base level of remuneration which is both appropriate to the position 
and is competitive in the market. Senior managers are given the opportunity to receive their fixed (primary) remuneration 
in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefits such as motor vehicles.

Variable Remuneration – STI

The objective of the STI program is to link the achievement of the Company’s operational targets with the remuneration 
received by the executives charged with meeting those targets. The total potential STI available is set at a level to provide 
sufficient incentive to the senior manager to achieve the operational targets and such that the cost to the Company 
is reasonable. The individual performance of each executive is also rated and considered when determining the amount, 
if any, of the short-term incentive pool allocated to each executive. The aggregate of annual STI payments available for 
executives across the Company are usually delivered in the form of a cash bonus.

Variable Remuneration – LTI

The objective of the LTI plan is to reward senior managers in a manner which aligns this element of remuneration 
with the creation of shareholder wealth. As such, LTI grants are only made to executives who are able to influence the 
generation of shareholder wealth and thus have a direct impact on the Company’s performance against relevant long term 
performance hurdles. In the 2017 financial year, 5,000,000 options were granted (2016: Nil) to the MD and directors, which 
were approved at the AGM in November 2016. Shares of 176,211 were issued to key executives during the year with a further 
1,276,957 to be granted. At the previous AGM held on 30 November 2015, a new Employee Equity Plan (“EEP”) was approved. 
Expenses have been recognised for relevant executive KMP to receive some form of LTI remuneration the exact amounts are 
listed in the Details of Remuneration table on the following page.

Loans with KMP

There are currently no loans with KMP.

Value of Options

The value of options is determined at grant date using the Binomial Option Pricing Model taking into account factors 
including exercise price, expected volatility and option life and is included in remuneration on a proportion basis from grant 
date to vesting date.

As the options vest over time, the cost is expensed in accordance with AASB2 over the vesting period. In the 2017 financial 
year, the expense for KMP was $1,094,005 (2016: $283,327).

During the year, Scott Baldwin and Craig Harris exercised 1,000,000 options each converting to 1,000,000 ordinary shares 
at $0.496056 each.

Inputs into the determination of the fair value of options issued to the KMP are set out below:

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017

Introduction

The financial report covers Money3 Corporation Limited (“Money3” or “the Company”) and its controlled entities 
(“the Group”). Money3 is a company limited by shares whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities 
Exchange (ASX). Money3 is incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The presentation currency and functional currency 
of the Group is Australian dollars and amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

The financial report was authorised for issue by the Board of the Company at a directors meeting on the date shown on the 
Declaration by the Board attached to the Financial Statements.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of accounting

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 
2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations and complies with other requirements of the law, as appropriate 
for profit oriented entities. The financial report comprises the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

The financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical costs modified by the 
revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting 
has been applied. Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation in the 
current year.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, which are based on the 
Company continuing as a going concern which assumes the realisation of assets and the extinguishment of liabilities in the 
normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of the Group as at 30 June 2017 
and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended.

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

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

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

Rounding of amounts

The Group and the Company are of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) 
Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to the “rounding off” 
of amounts in the financial report. Amounts in the financial report have been rounded off in accordance with that 
Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Critical accounting estimates, assumptions and judgements

In the application of Australian Accounting Standards, management is required to make judgements, estimates and 
assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates 
and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable 
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements. Actual results may differ from 
these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are 
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the 
revision and future periods if the revisions affect both current and future periods.

Judgements and estimates which are material to the financial report are found in the following notes:

Page 31

Note 6 

Loans and other receivables 

Page 34

Note 8 

Intangible assets 

Page 37

Notes to the financial statements

The notes to the financial statements have been restructured to make the financial report more relevant and readable, 
with a focus on information that is material to the operations, financial position and performance of the Group. Additional 
information has also been included where it is important for understanding the Group’s performance.

Notes relating to individual line items in the financial statements now include accounting policy information where it 
is considered relevant to an understanding of these items, as well as information about critical accounting estimates and 
judgements. Details of the impact of new accounting policies and all other accounting policy information are disclosed  
at the end of the financial report in note 25.

2. Segment Information

The Group has identified its operating segments on the basis of internal reports and components of Money3 that are 
regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision makers in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess 
their performances.

Broker

This segment provides lending facilities based on the provision of an underlying asset as security, generally referred  
through a broker.

Branch

This segment provides services and lending facilities generally without the provision of an underlying asset as security 
through the branch network.

Online

This segment provides lending facilities without the provision of an underlying asset as security through the internet.

Segment profit earned by each segment represents earnings without the allocation of central administration costs and 
directors’ salaries, interest income and expense in relation to corporate facilities, bad debt collection and income tax 
expense. This is the measure reported to the MD for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment 
performance. The unallocated assets include various corporate assets held at a corporate level that have not been  
allocated to the underlying segments.

3. Revenue (continued)

Recognition and Measurement

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the economic entity and the 
revenue can be reliably measured.

Loan Fees and Charges

Loan fees and charges includes interest on loan products, application and credit fees, and other period fees including 
arrears, default and variation fees. Revenue associated with loans such as application and credit fees are deferred and 
recognised over the life of the loans using the effective interest rate method over the loan period. Interest revenue 
in relation to personal loans is accrued on a time basis by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest 
rate applicable. Some fees such as arrears, variations and default fees are recognised as they are charged and not recognised 
using the effective interest method.

Cheque Cashing Fees

Revenue is recognised when the service is performed and there are no unfulfilled service obligations that will restrict the 
entitlement to receive the consideration.

4. Income Tax

Income tax expense

Current tax

Deferred tax

Prior year adjustments

Deferred tax posted directly to equity and intangibles

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017Recognition and Measurement

Current Tax

Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit 
or loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the 
reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid 
(or refundable).

Deferred Tax

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the 
assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each 
jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences 
to measure the deferred tax asset or liability.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities 
are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax 
balances they relate to are levied by the same taxation authority.

Tax Consolidation

On 1 July 2010 Money3 Corporation Limited (“the head entity”) and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities 
formed a tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The head entity and the controlled entities in the tax 
consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has 
applied the group allocation approach in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax 
consolidated group.

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) 
and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the 
tax consolidated group.

Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts 
receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that the 
intercompany charge equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither 
a contribution by the head entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by subsidiaries to the head entity.

Recognition and Measurement

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, and safe, deposits available on demand with banks, other short-term 
highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

There is a key estimate that the recognition of income and the allowance for impairment will be in line with the repayment 
history of loans. These key estimates are regularly reviewed.

Recognition and Measurement

Loans and other receivables are non-derivative financial assets, with fixed and determinable payments that are not quoted 
in an active market. Loans and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value, including direct transaction costs and 
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Loans and other receivables are due for settlement at various times in line with the terms of their contracts.

Loans and other receivables have been aged according to their original due date in the below ageing analysis. The carrying 
value of loan receivables after allowance for impairment losses is considered a reasonable approximation of fair value.

Collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis and an allowance for impairment losses is recognised when 
there is objective evidence that the collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off when 
identified. The following basis has been used to assess the allowance for impairment losses required for loans:

•	

•	

an individual account by account assessment based on past credit history;

any prior knowledge of debtor insolvency or other credit risk; and

•	 working with client managers on a weekly basis to assess past due items to determine recoverability.

An allowance has been made for estimated irrecoverable loans amounts arising from the past provision of services, 
determined by reference to past default experience. During the current financial year, the allowance for impairment 
losses increased by $5.0 million (2016: increased by $4.9 million) for the Group. These amounts relate mainly to customers 
experiencing financial hardships. This movement was recognised in the profit or loss. During the year, the Group’s bad net 
debt expense decreased by $0.6 million (2016: increased by $5.7 million). The Group actively reviews loans receivable for 
their recoverability and these debts are expensed immediately when non-recoverability is identified.

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the fair value of each class of receivable in the financial 
statements. Security is generally taken for loans above $2,000 and is originated in the Broker Division and is secured by 
collateral of approximately $130.1 million (2016: $122.2 million). The total fair value of securities held for certain loans 
receivable is impracticable to determine for accounting disclosure as is the fair value of any collateral sold or repledged. 
However, the security position against individual debtors is considered by management in their evaluation of the 
recoverable amount.

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017Recognition and Measurement

Property, Plant and Equipment at Cost

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and cumulative impairment charges. 
Cost includes those costs directly attributable to bringing the assets into the location and working condition necessary for 
the asset to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Additions, renewals and improvements are 
capitalised, while maintenance and repairs are expensed.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes 
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An asset’s carrying amount is written down 
immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Depreciation

Depreciation on assets is calculated on a diminishing value basis to write off the cost of the asset over its estimated 
useful life.

Estimates of remaining useful life are made on a regular basis for all assets, with annual reassessments for major items.  
The expected useful life of plant and equipment is as follows:

Leasehold improvements 

2 – 10 years

Furniture, equipment and fittings 

5 – 10 years

Goodwill is tested annually as to whether it has suffered impairment. The recoverable amounts of Cash Generating Units 
(“CGU’s”) have been determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions.

8. Intangible Assets (continued)

Recognition and Measurement

All intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identified and recognised separately from goodwill where  
they satisfy the definition of an intangible asset and their fair value can be measured reliably.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the entity’s share of the net identifiable assets 
of the acquired business at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for impairment 
annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost 
less accumulated impairment losses.

Customer Lists

The customer lists acquired in the business combination are amortised on a straight line basis over the period of their 
expected benefit, being their estimated life of 5 years.

Impairment

Goodwill is allocated for impairment testing purposes to three CGU’s, being Broker, Branch and Online operations.  
The recoverable amount of the CGU is based on a number of key assumptions as detailed below.

Goodwill Impairment Tests and Key Assumptions Used

The Group tests at least annually whether goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives have suffered any 
impairment, and when there is an indication of impairment. The tests incorporate assumptions regarding future events 
which may or may not occur, resulting in the need for future revisions of estimates. There are also judgements involved 
in determination of CGU’s.

The recoverable amount of Broker, Branch and Online was determined based on a value in use discounted cash flow 
(“DCF”) model. The value in use calculations use cash flow projections based on the 2018 financial budgets extended over 
the subsequent four year period (“Forecast Period”) and applies a terminal value calculation using estimated growth rates 
approved by the Board for the business relevant to each CGU.

The following are the key assumptions used in testing the recoverable value of goodwill:

2018 Budget revenue growth

2018 Budget expense growth/(reduction)

Terminal value => 5 years

Revenue growth rate > 1 year

Expense growth rate > 1 year

Pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow

Recoverable amount ($’000)

The Directors concluded that, based on these assumptions, the recoverable amount exceeds the carrying amount and 
as such, there is no impairment of goodwill in the current year (2016: $nil).

2016 Assumptions

In 2016 the key assumptions used to calculate cash flows were a growth in operating expenses of (2%)-35% and an increase 
of revenue of 2%-27%. In the following years, growth rates were between 3% to 10%.

Management believe that any reasonable possible change in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount 
is based would not cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount of the CGU’s.

Trade and other payables are recognised when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the 
purchase of goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Trade creditors and other creditors are non-interest bearing liabilities. Trade creditor payments are processed once they 
have reached 30 days from the date of invoice for electronic funds transfer payments or cheque payment or 30 days from 
the end of the month of invoice for other payments. No interest is charged on trade payables.

All amounts are short term and the carrying values are considered to be a reasonable approximation of fair value.

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal, equitable or constructive) as a result of a present 
or past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the 
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at 
reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured 
using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the discounted present value 
of those cash flows. As that discount is unwound it gives rise to interest expense in the statement of profit or loss and other 
comprehensive income.

10. Provisions (continued)

Recognition and Measurement (continued)

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash 
flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks 
specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised 
as a finance cost.

Employee Leave Entitlements

Liabilities for unpaid salaries, salary related costs and provisions for annual leave are recorded in the statement of financial 
position at the salary rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Provisions for long service leave and 
other long-term benefits are recognised at the present value of expected future payments to be made. In determining this 
amount, consideration is given to expected future salary levels and employee service histories. Expected future payments 
are discounted to their net present value using Milliman corporate bond rates.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the 
liability for at least 12 month after the reporting date.

Borrowing costs are expensed over the life of the facility to which they relate.

Fair Value Disclosures

Fair values of Bonds are based on cash flows discounted using fixed effective market interest rates available to the Group. 
Finance costs of $3 million were recognised at the inception of the bonds and are being amortised over the life of the 
bonds. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating 
interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash 
payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

No fair value changes have been included in profit or loss for the period as financial liabilities are carried at amortised cost 
in the statement of financial position.

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017Finance Facility

In March 2017, the Group entered into a finance facility to borrow an amount of $50 million which expires on the 3 March 
2019. The facility bears interest at a fixed rate of 12% payable monthly in arrears and is subject to a first ranking General 
Security Agreement (fixed and floating charge) over all present and after acquired assets of the Group.

Bonds

On 14 May 2014, the first tranche of the bond issue was made for $15 million. The second tranche was issued on 30 June 
2014 for $15 million. The bonds have a maturity of 4 years, being 14 May 2018 and an interest rate of 9% paid quarterly. There 
is a general security deed over all the Company’s assets. The initial subscribers under the bond issue received 50 options for 
every $100 invested. The exercise price of the options is $1.296056 and can be exercised any time prior to maturity date.

The fair value of the liability portion of a convertible bond is determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent 
non-convertible bond. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or 
maturity of the bonds. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option. This is recognised and included 
in shareholders’ equity, net of income tax effects.

Recognition and Measurement

Basic Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding any 
costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during 
the financial year.

Diluted Earnings per Share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account 
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the 
weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential 
ordinary shares. Options granted to employees and bond holders are considered to be ordinary shares and have been 
included in the determination of diluted earnings per share to the extent to which they are dilutive.

18. Leases (continued)

Recognition and Measurement

The Group as Lessee

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating 
leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

19. Financial Instruments

The Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks through its use of financial instruments. This note discloses the Group’s 
objectives, policies and processes for managing and measuring these risks.

The Group’s overall risk management plan seeks to minimise potential adverse effects due to the unpredictability 
of financial markets.

The Board ensures that the Group maintains a competent management structure capable of defining, analysing, measuring 
and reporting on the effective control of risk inherent in the Group’s underlying financial activities and the instruments used 
to manage risk. Key financial risks including interest rate risk and credit risk are reviewed by management on a regular basis 
and are communicated to the Board so that it can evaluate and impose its oversight responsibility. The Group does not enter 
or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.

Specific Risks
Interest rate risk
•	

•	 Credit risk

•	

Liquidity risk

Financial Assets/Liabilities Used

The principal categories of financial assets/liabilities used by the Group are:

•	

Loans and other receivables

•	 Cash at bank

•	 Borrowings

•	

Trade and other payables

Objectives, Policies and Processes

The risk management policies of the Company seek to mitigate the above risks and reduce volatility on the financial 
performance of the Group. Financial risk management is carried out centrally by the Finance Department of the Company.

Capital Risk Management

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while 
maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.

The group overall strategy remains unchanged from 2016.

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.

Gearing Ratio

The Board reviews the capital structure on a semi-annual basis. As a part of this review the Board considers the cost 
of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Based on recommendations of the Board the Group will balance 
its overall capital structure through the payment of dividends, new share issues and share buy-backs as well as the issue 
of new debt or the redemption of existing debt.

The Group’s exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s short term deposits held, deposits at call  
and borrowings. The interest income earned or paid on these balances can vary due to interest rate changes.

The Group does not have a significant interest rate risk as its long-term borrowings are at a fixed rate.

(b) Credit Risk

Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. Credit risk arises from cash and deposits with banks and financial institutions, 
as well as credit exposures to outstanding receivables, net of any allowance for impairment losses, as disclosed in the 
statement of financial position and notes to the financial report.

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to 
the Group. With the exception of its dealings with core customers, the Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with 
creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating 
the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group measures credit risk on a fair value basis.

Money3’s core customers are often financially challenged and generally have a bad credit history and are lacking 
in budgeting ability.

The Group assesses credit risk by reference to historical information such as existing customers’ history and whether loans 
are secured or unsecured. At balance date, loans neither past due nor impaired are $160.4 million (2016: $116.1 million),  
with $123.60 million representing secured loans (2016: $98.0 million) and $36.8 million representing unsecured loans  
(2016: $18.1 million)

The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties 
having similar characteristics, given the number and diversity of customers.

Management manages credit risk by adopting policies and procedures which:

•	 Assess each application on the borrower’s capacity to service the loan;

•	 Match repayment dates to borrowers’ pay dates and pay cycles;

•	

Lend for short term;

•	 Where possible, obtain security on loans greater than $8,000;

•	

•	

Require repayment of loans by direct debit, pay deductions or during settlements;

Implement prompt follow up when a repayment is missed; and

•	 Have the ability to adjust repayments when customers face further financial difficulties.

This strategy remains consistent with the prior year.

19. Financial Instruments (continued)

(c) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to pay their debts as and when they fall due. The Company has 
borrowings and the Directors ensure that the cash on hand is sufficient to meet the commitments of the company and 
group at all times.

Liquidity risk arises from the Group’s management of working capital and the finance charges and principal repayments on 
its debt instruments. It is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due.

Liquidity risk includes the risk that the Group:

•	 will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction on the due date;

•	 will be forced to sell financial assets at a value which is less than what they are worth; and

•	 may be unable to settle or recover a financial asset at all.

To help reduce these risks where possible, the strategy is to borrow long term and lend short term, and maintain adequate 
cash reserves.

The Group holds the following financial instruments. Amounts presented below represent the future undiscounted principal 
and interest cash flows.

The contractual maturities in the table above reflect gross cash flows, which may differ to the carrying values of the liabilities 
at the reporting date.

Also, affecting liquidity are cash at bank and non-interest bearing receivables and payables. Liquidity risk associated with 
these financial instruments is represented by the carrying amounts as shown above.

The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximates their net 
fair values.

48

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017The net fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

•	

•	

the net fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded on active 
liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices; and

the net fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted 
pricing models based on discounted cash flow theory.

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables is a reasonable approximation of their fair 
values. 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. A decrease in interest 
rates by 0.5% affects the present value of the bonds by increasing their value by $444,672 (2016: $444,672) which has not 
been taken to account.

Recognition and Measurement

Options, restricted shares and performance rights are granted under the Money3 Corporation Limited’s Director and 
Employee Share Option Plan. Options, restricted shares and performance rights are granted under the plan for no 
consideration. The Board meets to determine eligibility for the granting of options, restricted shares and performance 
rights and to determine the quantity and terms of options, restricted shares and performance rights that will be granted. 
The valuation of options, restricted shares and performance rights are determined by an independent expert taking into 
account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The expected price volatility is based on the 
historical volatility (based on the remaining life of the options), adjusted for any expected changes to future volatility due  
to publicly available information.

place equity during his tenure. Wilson HTM has not provided services to the group during the year (2016: $768,106).

Stuart Robertson has entered into an advisory contract with his company Zolude Investments Pty Ltd to advise Money3 on 
funding facilities. The fee for providing the services is capped at $800,000 inclusive of GST. No amounts have been incurred 
or paid during the year.

Leath Nicholson is a director of Foster Nicholson Jones lawyers with which Money3 has engaged to perform legal services. 
Foster Nicholson Jones has been paid for services of $294,133 (2016: $363,237) during the year.

All transactions with related parties are at arm’s length on normal commercial terms and conditions and at market rates.

24. Significant Matters Subsequent to the Reporting Date

No matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial year that have significantly affected or may 
significantly affect the operations of the Company, the results or the state of affairs of the Group in future years.

25. Other Accounting Policies

Defined Contribution Superannuation Benefits

All employees of the Group receive defined contribution superannuation entitlements, for which the Group pays the fixed 
superannuation guarantee contribution (currently 9.5% of the employee’s average ordinary salary) to the employee’s 
superannuation fund of choice. All contributions in respect of employees’ defined contribution entitlements are recognised 
as an expense when they become payable. The Group’s obligation with respect to employees’ defined contribution 
entitlements is limited to its obligation for any unpaid superannuation guarantee contributions at the end of the reporting 
period. All obligations for unpaid superannuation guarantee contributions are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts 
expected to be paid when the obligation is settled and are presented as current liabilities in the Group’s statement 
of financial position. The defined contribution plan expense for the year was $1,689,426 (2016: $1,663,330) and is included 
in employee expenses.

Impact of New Accounting Policies

The year-end financial statements have been prepared on a basis of accounting policies consistent with those applied in the 
30 June 2016 Annual Report. The Group adopted certain accounting standards, amendments and interpretations during the 
financial year which did not result in changes in accounting policies nor an adjustment to the amounts recognised in the 
financial statements. They also do not significantly affect the disclosures in the notes to the financial statements.

Impact of Standards Issued but not yet Applied

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the 30 June 2017

Instruments

Nature of change

Impact

AASB 9 addresses the classification, 
measurement and derecognition 
of financial assets and financial 
liabilities and introduces new rules 
for hedge accounting.

In December 2014, the AASB made 
further changes to the classification 
and measurement rules and 
introduced a new impairment 
model. These latest amendments 
now complete the new financial 
instruments standard.

The Group has been 
undertaking significant review 
of its accounting policies and 
practices and this review is being 
implemented during FY 2018 and 
will see both revenue recognition 
and impairment comply with 
AASB 9.

This will incorporate changing 
the loan provisioning 
methodology from the incurred 
loss model to the expected 
loss model and recognising 
revenue with further reliance 
on the effective interest rate 
methodology.

Management continues to 
assess the impact of the new 
rules. At this stage, the Group 
is finalising the estimated impact 
of the new rules on the Group’s 
financial statements.

AASB 15 
Revenue from 
contracts 
with customers

AASB 16 Leases

The AASB has issued a new standard 
for the recognition of revenue. This 
will replace AASB 118 which covers 
contracts for goods and services and 
AASB 111 which covers construction 
contracts.

The new standard is based on the 
principle that revenue is recognised 
when control of a good or service 
transfers to a customer – so the 
notion of control replaces the 
existing notion of risks and rewards.

The standard permits a modified 
retrospective approach for the 
adoption. Under this approach 
entities will recognise transitional 
adjustments in retained earnings on 
the date of initial application (e.g. 
1 January 2018), without restating 
the comparative period. They will 
only need to apply the new rules to 
contracts that are not completed 
as of the date of initial application.

AASB 16 was issued in February 
2016. It will result in almost all leases 
being recognised on the balance 
sheet, as the distinction between 
operating and finance leases 
is removed. Under the new standard, 
an asset (the right to use the leased 
item and a financial liability to pay 
rentals are recognised. The only 
exceptions are short-term and low 
value leases.

Expected date of adoption 
by the Group: 1 July 2018.

AASB 15 paragraph 5(c) 
specifically excludes financial 
instruments within the scope 
of AASB 9 from AASB 15 and on 
this basis the Group considers all 
changes will be captured under 
AASB 9.

The Group is currently assessing 
at which if any point in time fees 
which are appropriate to measure 
using concepts considered 
by AASB15.

Mandatory for financial 
years commencing on 
or after 1 January 2019. 
At this stage the Group 
does not intend to adopt 
the standard before its 
effective date.

The standard will affect primarily 
the accounting for the Group’s 
operating leases. As at the 
reporting date the Group has 
non-cancellable operating leases 
commitments of $6,014,000, see 
note 18. However, the Group 
has not yet determined to what 
extent these commitments will 
result in the recognition of an 
asset and a liability for future 
payments and how this will 
affect the Group’s profit and 
classification of cash flows. Some 
of the commitments maybe 
covered by the exception for 
short-term and low value leases 
and some commitments may 
relate to arrangements that 
will not qualify as leases under 
AASB 16.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT 

To the members of Money3 Corporation Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion  

We have audited the financial report of Money3 Corporation Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries 
(the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the 
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement 
of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes 
to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the directors’ 
declaration. 

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

(i) 

Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its 
financial performance for the year ended on that date; and  

(ii) 

Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.  

Basis for opinion  

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.  Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial 
Report section of our report.  We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the 
financial report in Australia.  We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance 
with the Code. 

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

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

BDO East Coast Partnership  ABN 83 236 985 726 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd

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.  

Revenue Recognition 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Refer to note 3 of the accompanying financial 
statements 

Our procedures, amongst others, included:  

•  Our Information Technology specialists were 

The amount of revenue and profit recognised 
during the year in relation to interest, application 
and credit fees is dependent on the company 
correctly recognising revenue  appropriately over 
the life of a loan using the effective interest rate 
method.  

As there are a large number of loan contracts and 
the terms vary by product, significant risk exists 
that revenue is incorrectly recognised.  In our 
view, revenue recognition is significant to our 
audit as the Group may inappropriately account 
for interest, application and credit fees 
potentially leading to revenue and profit not 
being recognised consistently over the life of a 
loan contract using the effective interest rate 
method. 

used, in conjunction with other audit 
procedures, to test the Group’s controls over: 
loan initiation and approval; standard terms, 
fees and charges; calculation of interest, 
revenue and deferred revenue in respect of 
fees and charges; controls for recording 
transactions in the company’s loan systems 
and the general ledger; and testing for 
duplicate loans.  

•  Detailed analysis of deferred fees and charges 
to ensure they are recognised over the life of 
a loan using the effective interest rate 
method in accordance with Accounting 
Standards.  

•  Detailed analysis of revenue and the timing of 
its recognition based on expectations derived 
from our industry knowledge and knowledge 
of the company’s products, fees and charges, 
following up variances from our expectations.  

Loans receivable and adequacy of allowance for impairment losses 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Refer to note 6 of the accompanying financial 
statements 

The Group has a large number of short term loan 
contracts, and customers are often financially 
challenged and generally have a poorer credit 
history than borrowers from other mainstream 
lending institutions.  Due to these circumstances, 
a significant risk exists that the company’s 
allowance for impairment losses may be 
understated and consequently net loan 
receivables and profit may be overstated.  

Our procedures amongst others, included: 

•  Testing of controls around the aging of debts 
in the company’s loan software system and 
the appropriateness and application of the 
business rules for recognising loans in default.   

•  Detailed analysis of loans in arrears or 

subject to special payment terms using prior 
periods history of loans in these categories 
subsequently going into default and using this 
evidence to support the appropriateness of 
the impairment allowance at year end.  

57

Money3 Corporation Limited | Annual Report 2017 
 
Independent Auditor’s Report
continued

In our view, correctly estimating the allowance 
for impairment losses against loans receivable is 
significant to our audit. 

•  Detailed analysis of management’s estimate 

of the impairment allowance and the 
adequacy of procedures and processes 
adopted by management.  

•  Detailed analysis of the impairment 

allowance based on expectations derived 
from our industry knowledge and knowledge 
of the Groups credit risk and following up 
variances from our expectations. 

Carrying value of Goodwill – Impairment Assessment 

Key audit matter  

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Refer to note 9 of the accompanying financial 
statements 

Our procedures amongst others, included:  
•  Obtaining an understanding of the key 

Goodwill is allocated across three cash generating 
unit’s (CGU’s), as set out in Note 9. 

In our view, correctly estimating the recoverable 
amount of goodwill for each CGU using a value in 
use (VIU) methodology and whether or not an 
impairment charge is necessary is significant to 
our audit. These calculations involve judgements 
by management about the budgeted cash flows 
for the 30 June 2018 financial year, future growth 
rates of revenue and expenses of the business in 
each CGU, discount rates and terminal growth 
rates applied to future cash flow forecasts for 
each CGU and sensitivities of inputs and 
assumptions used in the VIU models. 

controls associated with the preparation of 
the VIU models and critically evaluating 
management's methodologies and their 
documented basis for key assumptions.  
•  Agreeing VIU cash flows for the 30 June 2018 
financial year to the latest board approved 
budgets.  

•  Corroborating assumptions for key inputs in 
the VIU model for each CGU to forecast 
revenue growth rates, forecast expense 
growth rates, discount rates and terminal 
growth rates by comparing forecasts to 
historical actuals. 

•  Using our valuation specialists to critically 

assess management’s discount rates based on 
external data where available. 

•  Performing a sensitivity analysis on the key 
financial assumptions in the VIU models for 
each CGU. These included sensitised revenue 
forecasts, revenue multipliers used in the 
terminal year of cash flows, and the discount 
rates applied. 

Other information  

The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the 
information contained in the Directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include 
the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon, which we obtained prior to the date of this 
auditor’s report, and the Annual report, which is expected to be made available to us after that date. 

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

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

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

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

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 ability of the group to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

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

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